See accompanying notes. -7- WAM!NET INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) 1. Consolidated Financial Statements The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by WAM!NET Inc. (the "Company") without audit and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments and accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of regulation S-X, but omit certain information and footnote disclosures necessary to present the statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. The December 31, 2000 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Certain amounts for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. 2. Consolidation Policy and Foreign Currency Translations The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its 60% owned joint venture. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, while elements of the income statement are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. The functional currencies of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are considered to be the respective subsidiary's local currency. All translation gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates of these subsidiaries are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. 3. Preferred Stock In accordance with the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into with Winstar in September 2000, the Company sold the remaining 20,000 shares of Class H convertible preferred stock for an aggregate of $20 million in January 2001. As a result Winstar received a warrant for 1,450,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01. The warrant is immediately exercisable and expires on December 31, 2005. 4. Termination of Network Facilities Agreement In December 1999 the Company entered an agreement with Winstar Wireless, Inc. pursuant to which the Company acquired an indefeasible right over 20 years to use backbone capacity and wireless local loop facilities. Under this agreement, and other related agreements, the Company made a $20 million initial paymentin January 2000 for the indefeasible right to use these facilities with additional contemplated quarterly payments of $5.0 million and increasing to approximately $24.9 million over the seven-year period ending December 15, 2006. The indefeasible right of use was capitalized in property, plant and equipment, and the Company recorded a related liability of $260.3 that bore an effective interest rate of 8.3%. At December 31, 2000, the outstanding balance of the liability was $239.6 million. Due to continuing non-performance by Winstar as specified in the agreement, which non-performance resulted in an Event of Default, on April 12, 2001, the Company sent a notice to Winstar terminating these arrangements effective April 30, 2001, citing (1) breaches of representations and warranties by Winstar, (2) breaches of Winstar's obligations to meet deadlines to deliver and install facilities and (3) Winstar's failure to insure that these facilities -8- performed to applicable specifications. On April 18, 2001, Winstar and a number of related entities filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On or about April 27, 2001, Winstar responded to the Company's termination notice by alleging that the giving of the notice was a breach of the arrangements (and, consequently, did not terminate these arrangements) and seeking to make the Company commence certain dispute resolution procedures. No formal litigation or arbitration proceedings have been initiated as of May 18, 2001. Although the Company and Winstar are engaging in discussions, there can be no assurance that any settlement of this dispute will be reached or as to the possible terms of any resolution. The Company believes that the notice of termination was properly given. The Company wrote off the related asset of $275 million and the related obligation of $240 million and has recorded a $35 million loss on termination in the first quarter of 2001. 5. Bank Credit Facilities The Company had a $25,000 line of credit agreement with a bank, which was orginally due in September 2000 and was subsequently extended to January 10, 2001. The line of credit was guaranteed by MCI WorldCom. At December 31, 2000, the amount outstanding on the line of credit was $15,000. On January 10, 2001, the Company repaid the remaining $15,000 and closed the line of credit. In February 2001, the Company entered into a $30,000 bank credit facility, which expires in January 2003. The credit facility is a revolving credit facility under which the bank will lend the Company up to the $30,000 based upon a borrowing base consisting of the Company's cash collections. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility incur interest at the banks reference rate plus 3.25% (11.25% at March 31, 2001). The credit facility is secured by a lien on certain unencumbered and lienable assets. The credit facility requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants. The credit facility is automatically renewable at maturity until cancelled in accordance with its terms. As of March 31, 2001, the Company has borrowed $14,060 under the credit facility. In addition subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Company obtained additional financing of $5.64 million under the bank credit facility. On April 27, 2001 the Company obtained a $2.4 million term loan under the bank credit faciliy. The term loan expires in accordance with the original bank credit facility and has a fixed interest rate of 12%. On May 15, 2001 the Company obtained a $3.24 million term loan under the bank credit facility. The term loan expires in accordance with the original bank credit facility and has a fixed interest rate of 19.5%. Up to $3 million of the term loan can be converted into 4.9% of the issued and the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis. Such security is subject to registration rights and anti dilution provisions. The creditor may convert the credit facility or in the alternative may exercise a five warrant for such amount. 6. Purchase Committment On February 1, 2001 the Company entered into an agreement with a strategic vendor. Under the agreement the Company will purchase a minimum of 250 media transport devices over three years. The media transport devices range in prices from $25 to $71 per device. 7. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income for the Company includes net loss, the effects of currency translation which are charged or credited to the cumulative translation adjustment account within stockholders' equity, and the unrealized gain/loss on investments available for sale which is recorded within stockholders equity. Comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was as follows: -9-

Additional Factors That May Affect Future Results The following risk factors and other information included in this Quarterly Report should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since inception, we have incurred net losses and experienced negative cash flow from operating activities. Net losses since inception have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $544.4 million as of March 31, 2001. Management expects to continue to operate at a net loss and experience negative cash flow from operating activities through the foreseeable future. At March 31, 2001, our cash resources and available borrowings are insufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months without raising additional debt and/or equity capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount or classification of liabilities, which might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management is currently in the process of negotiating a revolving credit facility with a financial investor. However, there is no assurance that such funds will be available or available on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is not successful in obtaining additional funding, it may not be able to continue as a going concern. The report of our independent auditors on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 includes an explanatory paragraph, which states that the recurring losses from operations, working capital deficiency, net capital deficiency and limited liquid resources raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our limited operating history makes it difficult for you to evaluate our performance. Although we commenced operations in March 1995, we only recently began offering several services from which we expect to generate a substantial portion of our revenues in the future. Our prospects must be considered in light of the recent release of these services, and the uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at a comparable stage of development. To address these risks and uncertainties, we must, among other things: o increase the size of our customer base and utilization of our network and services; o successfully perform our NMCI subcontract; o raise additional capital; o successfully manage our relationships and activities with our strategic partners and distributors, including EDS, SGI, Sumitomo and 3M, and develop new relationships and activities with influential suppliers and channel distributors in our target markets; -10- o successfully market our branded services; o continue to attract and retain qualified personnel; o accurately assess potential markets and effectively respond to competitive developments; o continue to maintain and upgrade our operational, support and business systems; o comply with evolving governmental regulatory requirements and obtain any required governmental authorizations; o continue to upgrade our services and applications to address new technologies; o provide acceptable customer service; and o effectively manage our operations. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in accomplishing any or all of the above, and our failure to do so could have an adverse effect on our business. We have experienced substantial negative cash flow from operating activities, operating losses and net losses and may not be able to achieve profitability. We have incurred substantial losses. Our substantial operating costs have resulted in our cash flow being insufficient to pay our operating expenses or fund our capital expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to increase our revenue in an amount sufficient to generate positive cash flow or to achieve and maintain profitability. We had negative cash flow from operating activities, operating losses and net losses of approximately, $55.9 million, $102.4 million and $121.9 million in 1998, $65.7 million, $104.9 million and $145.1 million in 1999 and $73.1 million, $105.1 million and $186.6 million in 2000. As of March 31, 2001, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $544.4 million. We expect to continue to experience negative cash flow and substantial operating and net losses for the foreseeable future due to the significant costs involved at this stage of our development, including the following: o costs relating to performance of our NMCI subcontract with EDS; o costs relating to the sales and marketing of our branded services; o costs to be incurred in maintaining our network, hosting and storage infrastructure; o recurring telephony, hardware and installation costs resulting from providing service to subscribers to our Direct Service; o costs relating to significant recurring operating and general administrative expenses. To fund our operating losses, pay our operating costs and meet our capital needs we will need additional financing, which may not be available to us. As a result of our lack of positive cash flow, our ability to continue to fund our operating losses, to maintain our technology, network and infrastructure and to successfully market our services on a worldwide scale depends largely on our ability to obtain cash from our financing activities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to -11- raise the additional working capital necessary for us to continue to implement our business plan or fund our operations. We have historically derived substantially all of our cash from the issuance of short-term and long-term debt instruments and equity securities. Our future financing activities will most likely consist of equipment financings, borrowings in the bank and capital markets and private or public sales of our capital stock. We are already highly leveraged, and to the extent that we incur additional debt, the risks described under "-- Our substantial leverage creates financial and operating risks" below will increase. However, our ability to incur indebtedness is subject to restrictions contained in our financing agreements. See "-- We may not be able to incur sufficient debt to finance our future operations or capital needs due to restrictions in our financing agreements" below. To the extent that we raise funds through the sale of a significant number of shares of common stock or other equity securities, the trading price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Any equity securities we sell could have rights senior to those of our common stock. We cannot, in any event, assure you that we will be able to obtain sufficient funding from our future financing activities. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding, we may be required to, among other things: o slow the expansion of our network, hosting and storage infrastructure; o scale back or delay the development of new services and applications; o reduce our marketing efforts; and o reduce the number of our employees. If any of the actions listed above are taken, the rate at which we are able to add customers to our network and increase network utilization could be slowed, and we could suffer some erosion in our subscriber base. A decrease in the rate at which we add subscribers and increase network utilization may delay or preclude our ability to generate positive cash flow and achieve profitability. Because our market is new and evolving, we cannot predict its future evolution, growth or ultimate size. We believe that we are the first company to offer business-to-business e-services to the media industry that enable businesses to digitally collaborate on-line with their workflow chains. Because this market is relatively new, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate size of the market or the rate at which we will be able to add customers or otherwise increase the utilization of our network and services. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that this market will evolve in the manner we predicted when we designed our network and services or that a demand for our services will exist in the future. If the market for our services grows more slowly or evolves differently than anticipated or fails to materialize at all, our business could be adversely affected. Our ability to increase our customer base depends in part on the active participation of existing customers and channel distributors in our marketing efforts. Part of the marketing efforts for our services involves collaborating with existing customers to promote the use of our service by their workflow partners. This can often involve customers participating in joint presentations and implementing suitable workflow solutions. In addition to our direct sales force, our marketing efforts utilize authorized channel partners who are responsible for ascertaining potential customers' requirements and who may work with our software developers to create attractive and cost-effective solutions. These authorized channel partners may also be responsible for ongoing support of our customers. The failure of our customers to remain actively involved in our marketing efforts or the inability of our channel distributors to properly manage customer accounts could adversely impact our business. Because our authorized channel partners may use our WAM!NET and WAM!BASE brands, if these agents are not successful, they could damage our brand and reputation. -12- Our operating results in one or more future periods may fluctuate significantly or fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors. Our annual and quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future due to numerous factors, many of which are outside of our control. These factors include: o the rate of customer acquisition and turnover; o the amount and timing of expenditures relating to the expansion of our infrastructure and the introduction of new services; o the amount and timing of expenditures relating to the performance of our NMCI subcontract with EDS; o introduction of new services or technologies by our competitors; o price competition; o the ability of our equipment and service suppliers to meet our needs; o regulatory developments, including interpretations of the 1996 Telecommunications Act; o technical difficulties or network downtime; o the success of our strategic alliances; and o the condition of the telecommunications and network service industries in general. Because of these factors, our operating results in one or more future periods may fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors. In that event, the trading price of our common stock could decline. Our substantial leverage creates financial and operating risks. We are highly leveraged. As of March 31, 2001, we had approximately $464.1 million of outstanding debt, including redeemable preferred stock. The most significant portion of the debt is attributable to our 13.25% senior discount notes due 2005, which have a principal amount at maturity of $208.5 million. The 13.25% senior discount notes had an accreted principal amount of $185.5 million at March 31, 2001, and will begin to accrue interest, payable in cash, on March 1, 2002. We are committed to make principal payments in the total amount of $6.1 million during the remainder of 2001. We have recorded as quasi-equity on our balance sheet as of March 31, 2001, redeemable and convertible preferred stock of $171.9 million. We are not currently generating sufficient cash flow with which to repay our substantial indebtedness, fund our operating losses or meet our capital requirements. Hence, we expect to seek additional financing in the future. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could: o impair our ability to obtain additional financing to fund our operating losses or meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements; o require that we devote a significant portion of the cash we receive from our operating and -13- financing activities to make debt service payments, thereby reducing the amount we can use for other purposes; o hinder our ability to adjust rapidly to changes in market conditions, including changes in technology that might affect our competitive position; and o make us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business or in general economic conditions. We may not be able to raise sufficient capital to finance our future operations or capital needs due to restrictions in our financing agreements. The operating and financial restrictions and covenants in the indenture governing our 13.25% senior discount notes may adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations and capital needs. We may also enter into credit arrangements in the future that have the same effect. The indenture governing our 13.25% senior discount notes contains financial and operating covenants that may limit our ability to: o borrow more funds (other than equipment financing); o incur liens; o make minority investments; o sell assets; o engage in transactions with stockholders and affiliates; and o engage in mergers, including mergers that result in a change of control. In the case of borrowing funds, we are generally prohibited from obtaining additional indebtedness other than equipment financing unless, after giving effect thereto, the ratio of our consolidated indebtedness to our consolidated operating cash flow for the four fiscal quarters of 2000 is less than or equal to 5 to 1. We incurred negative cash flow from operating activities for the first fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources." The restrictions contained in the indenture for our 13.25% senior discount notes could have the following adverse effects, among others: o we could be unable to obtain additional financing in the future to: o fund our operating losses; o meet our capital expenditure requirements; o further develop or deploy services and applications; or o allow us to conduct necessary corporate activities; o we could be unable to obtain lower borrowing costs than are available from secured lenders; -14- o we could be unable to engage in strategic joint ventures in which we are a minority partner; or o we could be unable to engage in some mergers, including mergers that could provide a substantial premium to our shareholders for their stock. The success of our business depends upon our ability to prevent system failure. Our commercial business depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our network and service offerings. We believe that our reputation for providing reliable service to our customers is critical to our future success. Despite our efforts to protect our network infrastructure against damage, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated problem may cause an interruption in our services. We have structured our network backbone with redundant circuits obtained from telecommunications providers to minimize interruption of our services; however, we generally do not obtain redundant circuits for local loop connections between our network and our customers. As a result, we have experienced occasional interruption of service to individual customer sites due to loss of service in these local loop circuits. To date, we believe these interruptions have not had a significant effect on our business. Our commercial services use a combination of telecommunications equipment, computer hardware and software, operating protocols and proprietary applications for high-speed transportation and storage of large quantities of digital data. Given the complexity of our services, it is possible that data files may be lost or distorted. Moreover, most of our customers' needs are extremely time-sensitive, and delays in data delivery may cause significant losses to a customer using our services. Despite our testing efforts, our network and services, including future enhancements and adaptations, may contain undetected design faults and software "bugs" that are discovered only after use by our customers. The failure of any equipment or facility on our network could result in the interruption of service to the customers serviced by that equipment or facility until necessary repairs are effected or replacement equipment is installed. Such failures, faults or errors could cause delays or require modifications that could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our commercial service is vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses and other disruptive problems. Despite our security systems, our network, hosting and storage infrastructure and commercial services may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses and other disruptive problems. Eliminating computer viruses and alleviating other security problems may require interruptions, delays or cessation of service to our customers, which could have an adverse effect on our business. We depend in part on the Internet for the quality of our Internet Gateway Service. Our Internet Gateway Service customers are dependent on the Internet to transport their data to our network and to receive files from other customers on our network. The recent growth in the Internet has placed strains on its infrastructure and has required the upgrade of routers, switches, telecommunications links and other components forming this infrastructure. The benefits of our Internet Gateway Service and its commercial acceptance are therefore dependent in part on the activities of Internet service providers and other third-parties, over whom we have no control, to ensure the continued upgrading of the Internet to avoid any degradation in its performance. If the security, reliability or performance of the Internet is compromised or degraded, the success of our Internet-based services, and the pricing of those services, could be materially and adversely impacted. We are exposed to liability for damages resulting from failure of data transportation or loss of data. Our contracts with customers generally contain provisions limiting our liability for failure of data transportation or -15- loss of stored data to $100 per occurrence, with a maximum liability equal to the subscriber's cumulative monthly payments for a year and, in the case of rendering services, to replacement service. Nevertheless, we may be subject to significant claims and potential liabilities for data losses or delays in the transportation, storage or rendering of data through our network. In addition to general business liability insurance, we maintain $10 million of errors and omissions insurance coverage for our services, $10 million of business interruption insurance coverage for losses from fire and natural disasters, and $10 million of insurance coverage for losses of data due to physical damage to our data archive. We also maintain $25 million of umbrella coverage for loss or liability above our other policies. We cannot be certain that this amount of insurance coverage will be adequate to cover all data loss claims or that additional insurance will be available on affordable terms. Adaptation of our network infrastructure may be necessary in order to respond to: o demands for transmission and storage of larger amounts of data; and o changes to our customers' service requirements. The adaptation of our network, hosting and storage infrastructure will require substantial financial, operational and managerial resources. We cannot be certain that we will be able to adapt our infrastructure and manage it to meet the evolving requirements of our targeted industries and customers on a timely basis or at a commercially reasonable cost. We face uncertain and changing regulatory restrictions which could limit our operating flexibility or increase our costs. We purchase telephone equipment, computer hardware, routers and relays for use in our network, and we combine that equipment with our software and connect the assembly with telephone circuits provided by common carriers. The common carriers are regulated by the FCC, the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission, or CRTC, and various state regulatory agencies. We believe that under the FCC's current interpretation of the Communications Act of 1934, the services that we offer to our customers are interstate information (enhanced) services. Consequently, we are not required to obtain licenses or other approvals from the FCC or state regulatory agencies to offer these services. However, if at some time our services are deemed to be intrastate services, certain state regulatory agencies might seek to assert jurisdiction over our products and services. We would then be required to spend substantial time and money to acquire the appropriate licenses and to comply with state regulations. We believe that under the CRTC's interpretation of Canadian law, our services do not require us to obtain telecommunications permits or approvals in Canada. We believe that European Union directives permit us to provide our services in E.U. member states without the need to obtain licenses or other governmental approvals. Bilateral agreements exist between the U.S. and Japan and the U.S. and Hong Kong that encourage unimpeded cross-border provision of enhanced services like the ones we offer. Pursuant to the World Trade Organization's General Agreement on Trade and Services, over 50 governments have agreed to permit the competitive provision of value-added services by nationals of WTO member countries. Nevertheless, certain other countries in Europe, Asia and elsewhere might seek to license and regulate our services. Any such license or regulation may limit, delay or increase the costs of operations associated with additional international locations to which we may desire to expand our operations. In addition to telecommunication regulations, we may become subject to other current or future regulations in the U.S. or abroad as our business continues to develop and as governments respond to changes brought about by the growth of the Internet and e-commerce. These regulations may affect data privacy, marketing or distribution, or may be applicable to specific industries or businesses to which we may offer services. Such regulations could result in economic burdens or technical or legal constraints that could adversely affect our business. -16- If we are unable to retain our key personnel, our business may suffer. Our successful operation depends on the services of key executives and significant employees, some of whom we have only recently employed. The loss of the services of any of these persons could have a material adverse effect on us. We have entered into employment agreements with substantially all of our officers and significant employees, and have purchased life insurance policies on certain employees. See "Management." We believe our future success will depend on our ability to retain the services of these personnel and to attract and retain qualified technical and marketing personnel. We cannot be certain that we will be able to continue to attract and retain the personnel necessary for the successful conduct of our business. Our failure to manage growth could adversely affect us. We have rapidly and significantly expanded our operations. We are expanding the geographic coverage and capacity of our network, providing new services and media workflow applications as we seek to expand our customer base and achieve our business objectives. Moreover, we have rapidly expanded our workforce in recent months in order to perform our NMCI subcontract with EDS. To manage the growth of our operations, we must: o effectively manage our operational, managerial, financial and accounting resources; o hire, train and manage additional qualified personnel; o maintain our sales force, external installation capacity, customer service teams and information systems; o continue to expand our NMCI implementation work force; o expand and upgrade our core technologies; and o effectively manage multiple relationships with our customers, suppliers, strategic partners and other third-parties. We may not be able to install management information and control systems in an efficient and timely manner, and our current or planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. Failure to manage our future growth effectively could adversely affect the expansion of our customer base and service offerings. Any failure to successfully address these issues could have a material adverse effect on our business. We depend on third-party suppliers for equipment and services, and our business could be adversely affected if these relationships are disrupted. Our business depends on third-party local and long distance carriers and on third-party suppliers of the computers, software, routers and related components used on our network and the disk drives, software systems and controllers used in our hosting and storage infrastructure. Many of these supplier arrangements are for terms of less than one year and are terminable by the other party in specified circumstances. We also depend on the services of third-parties for Direct Service customer site installations, routine maintenance and on-call repair services. We may experience delays and additional costs if any of these relationships are terminated and we are unable to reach suitable agreements with alternate vendors, suppliers or carriers in a timely manner. Furthermore, to the extent that we are unable to secure suitable installation, maintenance or on-call repair services from third-party vendors, we may be required to substantially increase our own workforce to perform these services, and our growth may be constrained while we build and train our workforce. There can be no assurances that we will be able to maintain our relationships with third-party suppliers for equipment and services or that we will be able to find suitable alternative -17- products and services at a commercially reasonable price, or at all. The loss of our affiliation with SGI or MCI WorldCom could adversely impact our ability to operate our business. We have significant investment, supply and/or distribution relationships with each of SGI, Winstar and MCI WorldCom. SGI currently holds convertible preferred stock that entitles it to elect one director to our board. If SGI were to convert all of its convertible preferred stock, it would own 10,437,096 shares of our common stock, or 46.1% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of April 30, 2001, assuming none of the other holders of our options, warrants or convertible securities exercised their conversion rights. Because of its holdings and representation on our board, SGI may be able to exercise significant influence over our affairs. SGI is currently a primary supplier of components for network access devices, which we use to connect customers directly to our network. A loss of our strategic relationship with SGI could have a material adverse effect on our business. Winstar currently holds convertible preferred stock that entitles it to elect one director to our board. If Winstar were to convert all of its convertible preferred stock and exercisable warrants, it would own 31,593,974 shares of our common stock, or 72.1% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of April 30, 2001, assuming none of the other holders of our options, warrants or convertible securities exercised their conversion rights. Because of its holdings and right to representation on our board, Winstar may also be able to exercise significant influence over our affairs. MCI WorldCom currently holds convertible debt and preferred stock and exercisable warrants, which, if converted or exercised in full, would result in MCI WorldCom owning at least 11,181,257 shares of our common stock, or 47.8% of our outstanding shares of common stock, as of April 30, 2001, assuming that none of our other holders of options, warrants or convertible securities exercised their conversion rights See "Use of Proceeds." MCI WorldCom previously had three designees on our Board of Directors. In August 1999, MCI WorldCom agreed to become a passive investor and maintain a strategic relationship with us. Accordingly, its three designees resigned from our Board and MCI WorldCom relinquished its right to elect directors to our Board. Because of its significant holdings, however, MCI WorldCom continues to be able to exercise significant influence over our affairs. MCI WorldCom and its affiliates are our largest supplier of meshed DS3, ATM backbone which interconnects our distribution hubs, and of local loop connections between our distribution hubs and network access devices on our customers' premises. We also co-locate a significant portion of the routers and switches for our distribution hubs at MCI WorldCom's points of presence on a month-to-month basis. A loss of our strategic relationship with MCI WorldCom could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our business may be affected by competition. We face competition from a variety of companies in the provision of data transport, hosting, storage and workflow management services to the media industry as well in the provision of services to the government. Many of our competitors have an established market presence and substantially greater financial, technological, marketing and research and development resources than we do, and may offer competitive services and applications. Our competitors and potential competitors for our commercial services include overland and air carrier service providers, digital courier and digital file transfer service providers, large telecommunication carriers and service providers, data network and application service providers, and disk and tape storage equipment companies; and for our government services include many of the same competitors as well as others specializing in the provision of services to the government. Technological changes could render our services obsolete or non-competitive. We are at risk from fundamental technological changes in the development of digital data delivery and archiving solutions. Evolving industry standards, new product and service introductions, demand and market acceptance for -18- recently introduced products and services are subject to uncertainty of customer acceptance. There can be no assurance that we will be able to adapt to future technological changes or that developments by competitors will not render our services and related applications obsolete or noncompetitive. We may not be able to maintain proprietary rights in our intellectual property. Our ability to maintain our proprietary rights in our technology will affect the success of our business. We have applications for four U.S. patents pending for certain aspects of our technology. We rely on a combination of trade secrets and copyright protection, as well as patents to protect our proprietary rights in our technology. We also rely on trademark protection concerning various names, marks, logos and other devices that serve to identify us as the source for and originator of our services and applications. We offer our services and applications in foreign countries. Some of these countries lack intellectual property protection comparable to that afforded by the intellectual property laws of the U.S. Our proprietary rights in the technology underlying our network, hosting and storage infrastructure and related services and applications will be protected only to the extent that patent, trade secret, copyright or other protection is available in countries in which we market our services and applications, and only to the extent we are able to obtain such protection and enforce such rights. We cannot be certain that the steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights will be adequate to deter misappropriation of our technology or development of technologies that are substantially equivalent to our technology. Misappropriation of our technology or development of competitive technologies could have a material adverse effect on our business. We could incur substantial expense in protecting and enforcing our intellectual property rights. Intellectual property litigation is complex, and we cannot be certain of its outcome. We have conducted a limited inquiry regarding the possibility of infringement on patents and intellectual property rights of others. We are not aware of any infringements nor have we received any claims for such infringements. Any future intellectual property litigation, regardless of outcome, could result in substantial expense to us and significant diversion of the efforts of our technical and management personnel. An adverse determination in any such proceeding could subject us to significant liabilities to third-parties, require disputed rights to be licensed from such parties or require us to cease using disputed technology. Loss of significant customers and their workflow chains could have a significant effect on our business. During the year ended December 31, 2000, EDS, Time and Quebecor World, Inc. were our largest customers, representing 8.4%, 1.8% and 2.5%, respectively, of our total revenue. Although Time and Quebecor World do not individually represent a significant percentage of our revenue, both companies have developed important workflow chains of vendors, suppliers and customers who use our network. If either Time or Quebecor World were to significantly reduce or terminate (at the end of their current service contract or otherwise) their use of our network and services, their workflow partners might do the same, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The loss of EDS as a customer would have a significant adverse effect on future revenues. We are subject to the risks associated with foreign investment and international operations. Our operations extend outside of the U.S. During 1999 and 2000, a significant portion of our revenue was generated in Europe, and, to a lesser extent, Asia. We are exposed to the risk of changes to laws and policies that govern foreign investment in countries where we have operations, as well as changes in U.S. laws and regulations relating to investing in or trading with countries in which we may have investments. Certain countries in which we operate or may operate are subject to a substantially greater degree of social, political and economic instability than in the U.S. Risks associated with social, political and economic instability in a particular country could materially adversely affect our business and could result in the loss of our assets in that -19- country. In addition, some markets in which we have undertaken or may in the future undertake international expansion have technology and communications industries that are less developed than in the U.S. Risks inherent in doing business in international markets include the following: o uncertainty of acceptance of our services by different cultures; o unforeseen changes in regulatory requirements; o differing technology standards; o difficulties in staffing and managing multinational operations; o government-imposed restrictions on the repatriation of funds; o difficulties imposed by language barriers; o difficulties in finding appropriate distribution channels; and o potentially adverse tax consequences. These factors could harm our ability to successfully operate internationally and could have a material adverse effect on our business. We are subject to risks related to foreign currency exchange rates and repatriation. As we maintain our operations outside of the U.S., our results of operations and the value of our assets will be affected by the currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of countries in which we transact business. During the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, 28.1% and 35.7%, respectively, of our revenue was generated outside of the U.S. We typically sell our services and applications in foreign countries in the local functional currency. As a result, we may experience an economic loss solely as a result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Currently, we do not employ currency hedging strategies to reduce the risks associated with the fluctuation of foreign currency exchange rates. We may acquire interests in companies that operate in countries where the removal or conversion of currency is restricted. We cannot be certain that countries that do not have such restrictions at the time we establish operations will not subsequently impose them, especially in situations where there is a deterioration in a country's balance of payments or where the local currency is being heavily converted into other currencies. Item 2--Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis is based on the historical results of WAM!NET Inc. (the "Company") and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial Statements included herein. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. -20- Overview We own and operate an integrated global Information Technology (IT) infrastructure that we market and sell as a utility to commercial and government customers. Customers use our services to digitize mission-critical business processes and integrate these into their enterprise or supply chains. We offer our customers a suite of managed data services including 1) digital transport services 2) digital storage services 3) application hosting services 4) managed hosting services and 5) professional services. Customers purchase our services on an outsourced basis in which they pay a transactional charge per use, similar to a utility. By using our services, customers gain access to leading-edge technology without the high cost and challenges of managing technology themselves. Our services and IP-based network, storage and hosting infrastructure provide businesses a common electronic platform to seamlessly integrate their production processes and accelerate the adoption of online digital collaboration. In the commercial marketplace our global customer base is primarily made up of companies in the entertainment, broadcast, advertising, publishing, printing, retail, financial services, and consumer goods industries. These customers use our services to collaborate on-line within their supply chains to produce, manage and distribute rich media content such as: advertising, product packaging and general brand marketing materials; TV programming; films, video games, recorded music and other entertainment; news content and publications; video; and web materials. Creating these materials is a highly collaborative process involving many firms. In July 2000, we initiated direct sales to the government with the receipt of approval to sell on the General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule for Electronic Commerce Services. The GSA listing permits government entities to purchase our service without the need for lengthy and time-consuming bidding or request-for-proposal processes. In October of 2000, WAM!NET, as a tier one subcontractor, was part of the EDS-led team that won the $6.9 billion Navy Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI) contract. This intranet is a common computing and communications environment to link more than 300 Navy and Marine Corps bases throughout the U.S., Iceland, Puerto Rico, Guam, Hawaii and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. It is designed to enhance communication and the readiness of the U.S. Armed Forces. Under our subcontract with EDS, we will provide Base Area and Local Area Network design, installation and management at each base. We have made substantial investments in building our global network, hosting and storage infrastructure. In addition, we have developed an array of digital workflow services to meet the needs and demands of a broad-based customer group. We have also invested in and developed substantial and skilled customer service and professional service groups, which make our services more valuable to existing customers and more attractive to potential customers. Finally, we have made substantial investments in recruiting, training and developing a skilled and knowledgeable sales force, operations and development workforce. We use a consultative approach in our sales and marketing efforts to both identify and meet our customers' diverse needs. Our initial focus and investment has been in building an installed base of influential customers. We seek to increase the utilization of our service offerings among our existing customers, as well as to broaden our market penetration through the addition of new customers. In March 1998, we established our presence in Europe with the acquisition of 4-Sight Limited, a developer and worldwide marketer of ISDN based digital data transmission applications. 4-Sight had primarily sold software and hardware supporting digital transmission of data to its customer base. We have integrated the 4-Sight technology into our managed digital transport services. In September 1999 we opened an office in Tokyo and established a joint venture with Sumitomo to support the sales and marketing of our services to the Japanese market. In July 2000 we opened an office in Sydney, Australia, to develop business opportunities in the Australian market. In November, 2000, we purchased all of the outstanding common stock of is.com for 500,000 shares of the -21- Company's common stock. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the operating results of is.com have been included in the consolidated operating results since the date of acquisition. The inclusion of the is.com operating results for periods prior to the date of acquisition would not have materially affected results of operations. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued a warrant to the sole owner of is.com to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock. Access to our services is provided through our Direct Service, Tracked Service and Internet Gateway Service. Our initial focus through 1998 was our Direct Service. This is our fastest, most secure and reliable managed transport service, providing direct, guaranteed access and transport over our managed network. Our Customer Point of Presence (CPOP) devices are installed on our customers' premises and are connected to our network with a dedicated leased line. In the first quarter of 1999 we began to provide access to our network through our Tracked Service. This service offers the security and predictability of dial-up connectivity to our network at a slower transmission speed without the performance guarantee of Direct Service. This service does not require a dedicated onsite CPOP device or a dedicated connection to our network. We introduced our Internet Gateway Service in the third quarter of 1999. Internet Gateway Service allows connection to our network and services over the Internet. We provide media production-tailored tools with our managed transport services including InfoCenter, Electronic Job Tickets and Remote Proofing. We commercially introduced our WAM!BASE Digital Storage Service in the first quarter of 2000 and our web-based storage service, Workspace, in fourth quarter of 2000. Direct service is required to access WAM!BASE storage service. Also in the first quarter of 2000, we began offering Rendering on Demand, a hosted service that requires specialized software and extensive computing power to generate high-resolution computer animation for film and broadcast special effects. In the first quarter of 2000 we began offering our Compressed Video Service, our transport service for compressed video in MPEG 1 and MPEG 2 formats. We introduced our managed hosting services in third quarter 2000. These services are designed to enable reliable, scalable, mission-critical e-business applications for a wide range of customers. In the fourth quarter 2000, we acquired is.com, a 50-member professional services firm specializing in e-business solutions and workflow to augment our service offering. As of March 31, 2001, we had over 2,000 customer points-of-presence consisting of dedicated CPOP devices and local bandwidth connectivity. Of these, about 90 have WAM!NET storage services that customers access through the CPOP. In addition, we had over 15,700 users of our Internet and dial-up services globally. Revenues Net service revenue Our net service revenue from commercial customers is directly related to the number of customers, type of service, and volume of data moved, stored or processed. This revenue is derived primarily from media market customers who are purchasing our managed transport, managed storage, hosted applications and managed hosted services. Revenue is based on annual or multi-year service contracts, many of which have automatic renewal or extension provisions. These contracts generally include a minimum monthly fee and additional charges for usage that exceeds a minimum monthly usage level. We record monthly service revenue for Direct Service, Compressed Video Service and Tracked Service based upon contracts signed with customers, following installation of equipment and commencement of service at a customer's premises. Our Internet Gateway Service is priced primarily on a per-megabyte basis and recognized as revenue in the month the service is provided. Our Render on Demand service is -22- billed per computer processing unit hour and revenues are recognized as the service is provided to the customer. Our WAM!BASE digital storage and Workspace services are priced on the basis of megabytes stored per month. We began earning storage revenue in first quarter of 2000. Our managed hosting services are typically custom-oriented solutions and are priced according to the customers' equipment and capacity requirements. We began earning Professional Services revenues in fourth quarter 2000, primarily from our acquisition of a 50-member firm that specializes in e-commerce and workflow consulting services. Revenues are based on consulting engagements that are billed on an hourly rate, depending on the expertise required to meet customer requirements. Revenues are included in net service revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Our revenue from government customers primarily includes revenue from our subcontract with EDS for NMCI, as well as revenue generated from other government customers. On February 9, 2001, we entered into a definitive Subcontract Agreement with EDS. The contract, which was awarded under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 procedures, is an indefinite quantity type contract (with minimum purchase commitments) where delivery or performance shall be made only as authorized by orders issued by the Navy under the ordering clause of the NMCI contract with EDS. The contract contains a base period of five program years effective October 7, 2000, and an option to extend the period of performance an additional three years. We record and recognize revenue based upon performance on the number of seats ordered. We began recognizing revenue from the subcontract with EDS in the fourth quarter of 2000 under a Pre-Subcontract Authorization Agreement. Our full range of services are also sold to government entities through the GSA listing, direct marketing efforts and channel activity. These services are billed to government customers using the same billing model as used for our commercial customers. Software and hardware sales Revenue from software and hardware sales has resulted primarily from the sale of 4-Sight ISDN Manager software and ISDN cards. Our ISDN Tracked Service customers may choose to make a single up-front payment to purchase our software or to pay a monthly service fee. In both cases these purchases appear as software and hardware revenue. We continue to shift the existing 4-Sight customers from software to our managed transport service. We expect that software and hardware sales will decline in 2001. Operating Expenses Network communication Network communication expense represents the largest direct cost associated with providing our Direct Service. Network communication expense includes the costs of providing local loop telephone circuits connecting our network access devices from a customer's premises to the nearest distribution hub and the costs of the high bandwidth backbone carrier services which connect the distribution hubs with our network operation and data storage centers. Local telephone circuit connections provided by local exchange carriers account for the substantial majority of these charges. National and international service carrier charges account for the balance of these charges. Network communication expense is generally a fixed monthly cost per circuit. We believe that growing competition among telephony and communications providers may reduce the future costs of local telephone circuit and backbone connections. We actively seek to obtain and deploy technologies that will reduce the costs of local telephone circuit connections, such as wireless technologies, remote dial-up capabilities and DSL. We also intend to use our network management tools to optimize the use of existing and planned network capacity as volume increases and traffic patterns emerge. -23- Cost of other service revenues Cost of other service revenues represents direct labor costs associated with our professional service revenue and costs directly associated with performing under the NMCI contract. Cost of software and hardware Software and hardware expense reflects the costs of software and hardware sold. Technical operations Technical operations expense represents costs directly associated with developing, maintaining, managing and servicing our global private network and expanding our service offerings. These costs include direct labor, vendor service fees, point-of-presence charges and research and development charges, which are often incurred in advance of receiving revenue. Our currently installed network operation centers account for the substantial majority of these direct labor and operating costs. Most of the costs associated with the development of new services and applications, such as WAM!BASE Data Archiving Service, WAM!PROOF, ISDN Tracked Service, Internet Gateway Service and Render on Demand service, are accounted for as technical operations expenses and are incurred in advance of receiving revenue. Selling, general and administrative Our selling expense consists primarily of the salaries and commissions of our direct sales force and our global marketing groups, commissions for channel partners, and the costs of ongoing marketing activities such as promotions and channel development. Our sales and marketing efforts are focused on expanding our customer base and increasing utilization on our network. Accordingly, we offer new and existing services and develop new channels to sell and support our services. We also seek to increase the utilization of our network with the assistance of our influential customers who encourage their workflow partners to use our services. Our general and administrative expense includes administrative salaries, related overhead and professional service fees. These costs reflect expenditures related to the rapid growth and expansion of our administrative infrastructure necessary to manage our globally expanding operations, and professional service fees incurred in connection with financing activities, contract negotiations and business acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization We generally retain ownership of the customer premise equipment and most of the hardware and software necessary for our customers to use our services on a turn-key basis. Depreciation and amortization expense includes depreciation of this hardware and software as well as the equipment located in our distribution hubs and network operation, hosting and data storage centers. We also amortize certain costs relating to the acquisitions of is.com, 4-Sight and Freemail, which we acquired using the purchase method of accounting. We anticipate additional capital investments in our network, hosting and storage infrastructure commensurate with customer demand and market opportunity. Results of Operations Three Month Period Ended March 31, 2001 Compared with Three Month Period Ended March 31, 2000 Revenues Total revenue for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $15.6 million and $7.9 million representing an -24- increase of $7.7 million. This increase is due to net service revenues increasing $8.0 million offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in software and hardware revenues. Net service revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $14.2 million and 6.2 million. The increase of $8.0 million in net service revenue is primarily due to the following. We recognized $4.3 million from government service revenue primarily related to the NMCI contract with EDS. The remaining increase relates to the expanded service offerings introduced in first quarter 2000 and the increased number of subscribers purchasing our services and increased utilization on our network. Revenues from software and hardware sales for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, were $1.3 million and $1.7 million. The decrease in software and hardware sales is the direct result of our shifting from sales of 4-Sight software and hardware as stand-alone products to sales of service contracts, partially offset by software purchases associated with ISDN Tracked Service agreements. Operating Expenses Network communication Network communication expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, was $7.1 million and $7.2 million. Average monthly communication expense per Direct Service customer has declined and is expected to continue to decline, as a result of increased customer utilization of our backbone capacity and declining costs of North American local loop connections. We continue to incur substantial network communication expense as we deploy our network and related services and applications globally; however, we expect the network communications expense as a percentage of revenue to decline. Other service revenue costs Other service revenue costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 were $4.0 million. These costs are related to our direct costs of professional services and our direct costs associated with the subcontract with EDS for the NMCI project. Software and hardware The cost of software and hardware for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $0.4 million and $0.5 million. The decreases reflects the decline in software and hardware sales. Technical operations Technical operations expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $6.5 million and $5.4 million. The expenses increased from 2000 to 2001 as a direct result of our increased government activity. Selling, general and administrative Selling, general and administrative expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $11.3 million and $11.6 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.3 million due to reduced marketing expenses in 2001 compared to 2000. The decrease was offset with costs incurred for establising our government business and our acquisition of is.com. Depreciation and amortization Depreciation and amortization for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $10.9 million and $8.7 million. This increase was primarily due to depreciation of additional network and related equipment purchased for network -25- expansion. Included in these totals for 2001 and 2000 was $1.8 million and $1.7 million of amortization expense relating to the goodwill recorded in connection with acquisitions. Interest expense Interest expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $10.0 million and $15.3 million. The decrease in interest exepense is due to the termination of the network facilites agreement with Winstar resulting in the writeoff of the related asset and obligation in the first quarter of 2001 (see footnote 4 to the financial statements). Included in interest expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are non-cash charges of $7.5 million and $7.1 million related to the amortization of deferred financing charges, the amortization of the value of warrants issued in connection with debt financing transactions and the accretion of debt. Loss on termination of network facilities agreement In December 1999 the Company entered an agreement with Winstar Wireless, Inc. pursuant to which the Company acquired an indefeasible right over 20 years to use backbone capacity and wireless local loop facilities. Under this agreement, and other related agreements, the Company made a $20 million initial paymentin January 2000 for the indefeasible right to use these facilities with additional contemplated quarterly payments of $5.0 million and increasing to approximately $24.9 million, over the seven-year period ending December 15, 2006. The indefeasible right of use was capitalized in property, plant and equipment, and the Company recorded a related liability of $260.3, which bore an effective interest rate of 8.3%. At December 31, 2000, the outstanding balance of the liability was $239.6 million. Due to continuing non-performance by Winstar as specified in the agreement, which non-performance resulted in an Event of Default, on April 12, 2001 the Company sent a notice Winstar terminating these arrangements effective April 30, 2001, citing (1) breaches of representations and warranties by Winstar, (2) breaches of Winstar's obligations to meet deadlines to deliver and install facilities and (3) Winstar's failure to insure that these facilities performed to applicable specifications. On April 18, 2001 Winstar and a number of related entities filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On or about April 27, 2001 Winstar responded to the Company's termination notice by alleging that the giving of the notice was a breach of the arrangements (and, consequently, did not terminate these arrangements) and seeking to make the Company go through certain dispute resolution procedures. No formal litigation or arbitration proceedings has been initiated as of May 18, 2001. Although the Company and Winstar are engaging in discussions, there can be no assurance that any settlement of this dispute will be reached or as to the possible terms of any resolution. The Company believes that the notice of termination was properly given and that these arrangements with Winstar have been terminated. The Company wrote off the related asset of $275 million and related obligation of $240 million, and recorded a $35 million loss on termination in the first quarter of 2001. Other income Other income for the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $1.0 million and $0.8 million. Other income primarily relates to rental income received from SGI in connection with leasing a portion of the corporate campus facility in Eagan which we received as part of an investment by SGI in March 1999. Income taxes and net loss At March 31, 2001, we had $335 million of United States net operating loss carryforwards. These carryforwards are available to offset future taxable income through the year 2020 and are subject to the limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. These limitations may result in the expiration of net operating loss carryforwards before they can be utilized. -26- Liquidity and Capital Resources Through March 31, 2001, we have issued equity and debt securities and incurred other borrowings resulting in cash received by us of $505.2 million. We have used the majority of these proceeds to expand our global network, to build our customer base and for geographic expansion. In addition, we expanded our operations in Europe through the acquisition of 4-Sight for $16.4 million in cash and the issuance of equity securities. Our ability to achieve profitability and positive cash flow from operations will be dependent on substantially growing our revenues and realizing increased operating efficiencies. In 2001, we entered into the following financing transactions in order to continue to fund our operating and capital requirements: The Company had a $25 million line of credit agreement with a bank, which was orginally due in September 2000 and was subsequently extended to January 10, 2001. The line of credit was guaranteed by MCI WorldCom. At December 31, 2000, the amount outstanding on the line of credit was $15 million. On January 10, 2001, the Company repaid the remaining $15 million and closed the line of credit. In February 2001, the Company entered into a $30 million bank credit facility, which expires in January 2003. The credit facility is a revolving credit facility under which the bank will lend the Company up to the $30 million based upon a borrowing base consisting of the Company's cash collections. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility incur interest at the banks reference rate plus 3.25% (11.25% at March 31, 2001). The credit facility is secured by a lien on certain unencumbered and lienable assets. The credit facility requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants. The credit facility is automatically renewable at maturity until cancelled in accordance with its terms. As of March 31, 2001, the Company has borrowed $14.1 million under the credit facility. In addition subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Company obtained additional financing of $5.64 million under the bank credit facility. On April 27, 2001 the Company entered into amendment number one to the bank credit faciliy. This amendment resulted in the Company receiving an additional $2.4 million term loan. The term loan expires in accordance with the original bank credit facility and has a fixed interest rate of 12%. On May 15, 2001 the Company entered into amendment number two to the bank credit facility. This amendment resulted in the Company receiving an additional $3.24 million term loan. The term loan expires in accordance with the original bank credit facility and has a fixed interest rate of 19.5%. Up to $3 million of the term loan can be converted into 4.9% of the issued and the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis. This right will be granted in the form of a five year warrant. This warrant also contains demand registration rights and anti dilution provisions. Since inception, we have incurred net losses and experienced negative cash flow from operating activities. Net losses since inception have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $544.4 million as of March 31, 2001. Management expects to continue to operate at a net loss and experience negative cash flow from operating activities through the foreseeable future. At March 31, 2001, our cash resources and available borrowings are insufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months without raising additional debt and/or equity capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount or classification of liabilities, which might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management is currently in the process of negotiatng a revolving credit facility with a financial investor. However, there is no assurance that such funds will be available or available on terms acceptable to the Company. If the -27- Company is not successful in obtaining additional funding, it may not be able to continue as a going concern. The report of our independent auditors on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 includes an explanatory paragraph, which states that the recurring losses from operations, working capital deficiency, net capital deficiency and limited liquid resources raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Item 3--Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Foreign Currency Exchange Rates During the three month period ended March 31, 2001, our revenue originating outside the U.S. was 18.1% of total revenue, substantially all of which was denominated in the local functional currency. Currently, we do not employ currency hedging strategies to reduce the risks associated with the fluctuation of foreign currency exchange rates. Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors. Interest Rates Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are operating balances and are invested in short-term deposits of the local operating bank. We are exposed to market risk from changes in the interest rates on some of our outstanding debt. The outstanding loan balance under our revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate based on prevailing short-term interest rates in the U.S. and Europe. Based on the average outstanding bank debt for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would not change interest expense by a material amount. For fixed rate debt such as our 13.25% senior discount notes, interest rate changes affect its fair market value, but do not impact earnings or cash flows.
