1.  THE COMPANY AND ITS BUSINESS

     Premiere Global Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation, is a global outsource provider of business process solutions. Our mission is to simplify and automate critical daily communications between companies and their constituents with proprietary communication technologies-based applications hosted on our global, on-demand platform.. We go to market with solutions in four core business practices: Conferencing, which is included in our Conferencing & Collaboration business segment, and Document Solutions, Marketing Automation and Alerts & Notifications, which are included in our Data Communications business segment. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2006, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and related footnotes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year of 2006 or for any other interim period. The financial information presented herein should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which includes information and disclosures not included herein. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounts Receivable

     Included in accounts receivable at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was earned but unbilled revenue of approximately $6.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Unbilled revenue consists of earned but not yet billed revenue at period end (September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005), which results from non-calendar month billing cycles and the one-month lag time in billing related to certain services. Unbilled revenue is billed within 30 days of calendar month end.

Software Development Costs

     Pursuant to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use,” costs incurred to develop significant enhancements to software features to be sold as part of services offerings and costs incurred to implement a new billing system at Conferencing & Collaboration and at Data Communications are being capitalized. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we capitalized approximately $2.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of software development costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we capitalized approximately $5.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of software development costs. These capitalized costs are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the related software, not to exceed seven years. Depreciation expense recorded for completed phases of software development in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $1.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Depreciation expense recorded for completed phases of software development in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $0.9 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

     We recognize revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues consist primarily of usage fees generally based on per minute, per fax page or per transaction methods. To a lesser extent, we charge subscription fees and fixed period minimum revenue commitments. Unbilled revenue consists of earned but unbilled revenue which results from non-calendar month billing cycles and the one-month lag time in billing related to certain services. Deferred revenue consists of payments made by customers in advance of the time services are rendered. Our revenue recognition policies are consistent with the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as amended by SAB 101A, 101B and SAB 104.

4

State Sales Taxes

     We record provisions for certain state sales tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, as needed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” (SFAS No. 5). Historically, we have not collected sales tax from our Conferencing & Collaboration customers or remitted sales taxes to states. We were recently audited by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue claiming that our audio conferencing services are subject to sales tax in Massachusetts. In March 2006, we began assessing sales tax to our customers in Massachusetts as a result of this audit. In July 2006, we paid an initial payment of approximately $1.2 million to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue for taxable years prior to 2005. Amounts associated with 2005 and early 2006 are still under review and have yet to be settled. We continue to work with Massachusetts in their on-going audit. More states may claim that we are subject to an assessment of sales taxes. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had approximately $4.4 million and $5.7 million, respectively, accrued for certain potential state sales tax exposure comprised of sales taxes, penalties and interest. This amount is included in “Accrued taxes” on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. We believe we are appropriately accrued for these potential exposures. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, we may need to adjust our sales tax liability which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations. Historically, we have collected and remitted sales tax from our Data Communications customers in applicable states. However, it is possible states may disagree with our method of assessing and remitting these taxes. We believe we are properly assessing and remitting these state sales taxes in applicable jurisdictions.

Income Taxes

     The provision for income taxes and corresponding balance sheet accounts are determined in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). Under SFAS 109, the deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on temporary differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes, in addition to net operating loss carryforwards which are reasonably assured of being utilized. These differences are primarily attributable to differences in the recognition of depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets, allowances for doubtful accounts and certain employee benefit accruals. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

     We recorded provisions for certain asserted international and state income tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, when needed, in accordance with SFAS No. 5. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had approximately $4.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, accrued for this potential exposure comprised of income taxes, penalties and interest. Since December 31, 2005, we provided for an additional $1.5 million accrual based on the results of a preliminary audit with a state that questioned our methodology used in allocating taxable income to it from other states in which we are not subject to income tax. We believe our methodology is consistent with generally accepted methods used in other states but believe that it is more likely than not we will incur this liability. This amount is classified as “Income taxes payable” on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In the normal course of business, we are subject to challenges from U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These challenges may result in adjustments of the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. Further, during the ordinary course of business, other changing facts and circumstances may impact our ability to utilize income tax benefits as well as the estimated taxes to be paid in future periods. We believe we are appropriately accrued for income tax exposures. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, we may need to adjust income tax accounts which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Treasury Stock

     All treasury stock transactions are recorded at cost. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we repurchased 3,662,038 shares of our common stock in the open market for approximately $28.0 million, pursuant to our Board-approved stock repurchase programs. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we withheld approximately 215,000 shares of our common stock to satisfy certain of our employees’ tax withholdings

5

due upon the vesting of their restricted stock grants and remitted approximately $1.6 million to the Internal Revenue Service on their behalf. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we repurchased 1,924,900 shares of our common stock in the open market pursuant to our prior Board-approved stock repurchase program for approximately $19.9 million. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we withheld approximately 471,000 shares of our common stock to satisfy certain of our employees’ tax withholdings due upon the vesting of their restricted stock grants and remitted approximately $4.5 million to the Internal Revenue Service on their behalf.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

     Other comprehensive income (loss) represents the change in equity of a business during a period, except for investments by owners and distributions to owners. Cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized gains on available-for-sale marketable securities represent components of other comprehensive income (loss) at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, total other comprehensive income was approximately $24.7 million and $30.5 million, respectively. Accumulated other comprehensive loss was $280.4 and $305.2 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that we recognize in our financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 will be effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on our financial statements.

     In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC) staff added Section N to Staff SAB Topic 1 through the issuance of “Financial Statements – Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Qualifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (SAB 108). SAB 108 addresses how a registrant should evaluate whether an error in its financial statements is material. The guidance in SAB 108 will be effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SAB 108 on our financial statements.

Reclassifications

     Certain prior year amounts in our condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2006 presentation. Specifically in 2006, due to our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," equity based compensation was reclassified to reflect these costs in the individual operating expense line items. Accordingly, approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million were allocated to cost of revenues, approximately $0.2 million and $0.7 million were allocated to selling and marketing expense, approximately $0.8 million and $4.1 million were allocated to general and administrative expense and approximately $0.1 million was allocated to research and development expense in both periods for a total of approximately $1.2 million and $5.1 million that were reclassified for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Additionally, SFAS 123(R) required the elimination of the unearned compensation related to earlier awards against the appropriate equity accounts. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, approximately $21.1 million and $12.6 million of unvested restricted share compensation has been reclassified to “Additional paid in capital” on the face of our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

     Summarized below are the carrying value and accumulated amortization of intangible assets that continue to be amortized under SFAS No. 142, “Accounting For Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS No. 142) (in thousands):

Realignment of Workforce – 2006

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we continued to execute our long-range plans that began during 2005 to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions, primarily in finance, between Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications within Europe and North America. We expect further restructuring costs as we finalize the execution of these plans during 2006. As a result of these consolidation efforts, we recorded restructuring costs for future severance payments of approximately $3.6 million for approximately 45 employees in the customer service, finance, operations and sales and marketing functions in all regions of both

7

business segments. In addition, we recorded $0.6 million of lease termination costs associated with five locations that we vacated as a result of consolidation efforts between our two business segments. We expect to pay the severance obligations and a majority of the lease termination costs during 2006 and 2007. Our reserve for these restructuring costs at September 30, 2006 was $1.9 million.

Realignment of Workforce - 2005

     During 2005, we executed a long-range plan to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions and re-align our sales force. This plan encompasses managing ourselves under the “Premiere Global Services” brand name as opposed to separate businesses. As a result of this plan, we have recorded restructuring costs for future severance payments of $3.3 million. During the first half of 2005, these costs were associated with a reduction in workforce of approximately 20 employees in various European country-level and North America finance functions in our Data Communications business segment. During the third quarter of 2005, these costs were associated with a reduction in workforce of approximately 90 employees in selling and marketing, operations and finance functions at both business segments, primarily in North America and Europe. The reduction in non-financial functions was the result of the significant declines during the third quarter in our legacy North America broadcast fax services and weakness in our Data Communications European operations. The reduction in financial functions during the third quarter was the result of the continuation of a long-range plan, in which we incurred restructuring charges in the first and second quarters of 2005 to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions, primarily in finance, within Europe and North America. In the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we paid approximately $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, related to severance and exit costs. In addition, in the second quarter of 2006, we adjusted the restructuring reserve in Europe by $0.2 million as a result of actual severance payments to certain individuals being less than originally estimated. Management expects to pay the remaining severance obligations during 2006. Our reserve for these restructuring costs at September 30, 2006 was $0.1 million.

4. MARKETABLE SECURITIES, AVAILABLE FOR SALE

     During 2005, we bought and sold securities of various companies operating in the same industries as Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, we sold the remaining shares of these investment securities for aggregate proceeds of $0.8 million less commissions, recognizing a loss of $0.1 million. As of September 30, 2006, we did not hold any marketable securities of companies that are publicly traded.

5. ACQUISITIONS

     We seek to acquire complementary companies that increase our market share and provide us with additional customers, technologies, applications and sales personnel. All revenues and related costs from these transactions have been included in our consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of each acquisition.

Conferencing & Collaboration

     In September 2006, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired certain assets and the stock of eNunciate Corporation (Enunciate Conferencing), a Canadian-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $25.9 million in cash at closing and $0.6 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141), and approximately $0.2 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.1 million has been allocated to other acquisition liabilities, $6.1 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists and $0.2 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. Because we have not finalized the closing balance sheet, the residual $20.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated preliminarily to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In August 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired all of the outstanding stock of Netspoke, Inc., a U.S.-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $23.4 million in cash at closing and $0.5 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $1.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.7 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $1.7 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities, $2.9 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists, $1.0 million has been allocated to developed technology and $0.6 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists, developed technology and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. In addition, $1.8 million has been allocated to long-term deferred tax liabilities to record the step-up in basis for the customer intangible assets purchased. The residual $21.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In June 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Intelligent Meetings Corporation, a U.S.-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $6.2 million in cash at closing and $0.1 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $0.4 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.1 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.1 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities, $2.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists and $0.1 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. The residual $3.8 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In March 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of the audio and Web conferencing services business of Citizens Communications Company, primarily servicing customers in the U.S. We paid $43.2 million in cash at closing and $0.2 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $2.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.9 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $2.5 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities and $6.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists which are being amortized over a five-year useful life. The residual $36.9 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

Data Communications

     In January 2006, Data Communications acquired all of the outstanding stock of Accucast, Inc., a U.S.-based provider of e-mail communications services. We paid $12.3 million in cash at closing and $0.5 million in transaction and closing costs. During 2006, we paid an additional $1.5 million cash purchase price upon the achievement of the first milestone target as specified in the purchase agreement. We may pay up to an additional $1.5 million in cash purchase price based upon the achievement of additional milestone integration targets as specified in the purchase agreement. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $0.2 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.3 million has been allocated to other acquisition liabilities, $2.0 million has been allocated to developed technology and $1.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists, with the identifiable customer lists and developed technology amortized over five-year useful lives. In addition, $1.1 million has been allocated to long-term deferred tax liabilities to record the step-up in basis for the customer lists and developed technology purchased. Because we have not finalized the working capital true-up, the residual $12.5 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated preliminarily to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

Discontinued Operations

     In July 2005, we settled the litigation with JOBA, Inc., a franchisee of our former Voicecom reportable segment. The parties to the consolidated actionand certain other individuals and entities entered into a settlement agreement which provided for payment in aggregate of approximately $1.1 million to JOBA by our subsidiary, Voice-Tel Enterprises, LLC, and by a party to the litigation but unrelated to us, Voicecom Telecommunications,

9

LLC. Approximately $0.9 million of this aggregate settlement payment was funded by Voice-Tel and approximately $0.2 million was funded by Voicecom in consideration, for among other things, dismissal of the litigation, with prejudice, mutual releases and covenants not to sue and termination of the JOBA franchise. Voice-Tel’s portion of the settlement amount and approximately $0.4 million in legal fees and expenses were accrued as of June 30, 2005 and included in the “Discontinued operations” line item in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

     During the second quarter of 2005, we changed the estimated liability for certain lease obligations associated with the discontinued operations of our former Voicecom reportable segment. The change is associated with the failure to sublease certain floor space that was assumed in the original estimate.

6. INDEBTEDNESS

     In April 2006, we closed an amendment to our credit facility, with a syndicate led by Bank of America, N.A. that increased the amount available to us under our line of credit from $180 million to $300 million, reduced the applicable percentages across the pricing grid and extended the maturity of the credit facility from February 2009 to April 2011. The amendment also provided for an uncommitted accordion feature allowing for an additional increase of $100 million to $400 million of the revolving credit line, subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in the amendment. The credit facility is subject to customary covenants for secured credit facilities of this nature. Certain of our material domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the credit facility, which is secured by substantially all of our assets and the assets of our material domestic subsidiaries. In addition, we have pledged as collateral all of the issued and outstanding stock of our material domestic subsidiaries and 65% of our material foreign subsidiaries. We believe that as of September 30, 2006, we were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants under our line of credit and have obtained any required waivers or consents from lenders, as applicable. Proceeds drawn under this credit agreement may be used for refinancing of existing debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. The annual interest rate applicable to borrowings under the line of credit, at our option, is the base rate (the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the Bank of America prime rate) or LIBOR, plus, in each case, an applicable margin which will vary based upon our leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter. At September 30, 2006, the applicable margin with respect to base rate loans was 0.0%, and the applicable margin with respect to LIBOR loans was 1.00% . At September 30, 2006, our interest rate on 30-day LIBOR loans was 6.32% . As of September 30, 2006, we had $157.1 million of borrowings outstanding and $0.9 million in letters of credit outstanding under our line of credit.

      In March and September 2006, we entered into a yen denominated line of credit for ¥200.0 million and ¥300.0 million, respectively, with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, which has an implied interest rate of 1.4% on ¥300.0 million and 1.6% on ¥200.0 million through April 2007. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was approximately $2.5 million.

     In June 2006, we entered into a capital lease for the purchase of network equipment. This capital lease has an implied interest rate of 3.1% and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $0.5 million.

     In March 2005, we entered into a capital lease for the purchase of various operating and network equipment. This capital lease line has an implied interest rate that varies between 2.5% and 10.5%, depending on the operating equipment being leased, and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $2.6 million.

     In September 2004, Data Communications entered into a capital lease for the purchase of network equipment. This capital lease has an implied interest rate of 3.3% and a term of 60 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $0.3 million.

     In February 2006, we entered into a three-year $50.0 million interest rate swap at a fixed rate of 4.99%, and in August 2006, we entered into two separate three-year $12.5 million interest rate swaps at 5.135% and 5.159% respectively. All of these swaps are exclusive of our applicable margin as stated in our credit facility. We have not designated these interest rate swaps as hedges and are accounting for them in accordance with SFAS No.133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” Changes in fair value, which were immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, are recognized in earnings.

10

     At September 30, 2006, we had no other indebtedness outstanding except for the borrowings under our lines of credit and the capital lease obligations listed above.

7. EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION

     On January 1, 2006, we adopted, using the modified prospective application, SFAS 123(R), “Share Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values and did not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (SFAS 123), as originally issued and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.”

     Upon our adoption of SFAS 123(R), we began recording compensation cost related to the continued vesting of all stock options that remained unvested as of January 1, 2006, as well as for all new stock option grants after our adoption date. The compensation cost to be recorded is based on the fair value at the grant date. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) did not have an effect on our recognition of compensation expense relating to the vesting of restricted stock grants. SFAS 123(R) required the elimination of the unearned compensation related to earlier awards against the appropriate equity accounts. As of September 30, 2006, approximately $21.1 million of unvested restricted share compensation has been reclassified to “Additional paid in capital” on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

     Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), cash flows resulting from the tax benefit related to equity based compensation was presented in our operating cash flows, along with other tax cash flows, in accordance with the provisions of EITF 00-15, “Classification in the Statement of Cash Flows of the Income Tax Benefit Received by a Company upon Exercise of a Nonqualified Employee Stock Option,” (EITF 00-15). SFAS 123(R) superseded EITF 00-15, amended SFAS 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,” and requires tax benefits relating to excess equity based compensation deductions to be prospectively presented in our statement of cash flows as financing cash inflows.

11

     The effect of adopting SFAS 123(R) on our income from operations, income before income taxes, net income, net cash provided by operating activities, net cash provided by financing activities, and basic and diluted earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three Months		Nine Months
	Ended		Ended
	September 30, 2006		September 30, 2006
Income from continuing operations, as reported	$	6,717	$	20,383

and diluted	$	0.00	$	0.02
Pro forma net income per share:
Basic	$	0.10	$	0.31
Diluted	$	0.10	$	0.31

     Prior to our adoption of SFAS 123(R), we accounted for equity based compensation under the provisions and related interpretations of Accounting Principles Board (APB) 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25). Accordingly, we were not required to record compensation expense when stock options were granted to our employees as long as the exercise price was not less than the fair market value of the stock at the grant date. In October 1995, FASB issued SFAS 123, which allowed us to continue to follow the guidelines of APB 25, but required pro-forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if we had adopted the provisions of SFAS 123. In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure — an Amendment of FASB 123,” which provided alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for equity based employee compensation. We continued to account for equity based compensation under the provisions of APB 25 using the intrinsic value method.

12

     If compensation cost for our equity based compensation plans had been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123, our net income and net income per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005, would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three Months		Nine Months
	Ended		Ended
	September 30, 2005		September 30, 2005
Net income:
As reported	$  9,522		$  34,873

Diluted net income per share:

Pro forma	$  0.12		$  0.46

     We may issue restricted stock awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to employees, directors, non-employee consultants and advisors under the following equity based compensation plans: our 1995 Stock Plan, 2000 Directors Stock Plan and 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan. Options issued under these plans, other than the directors plan, may be either incentive stock options, which permit income tax deferral upon exercise of options, or nonqualified options not entitled to such deferral. These stock plans are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors.

     A total of 9,650,000 shares of our common stock have been reserved in connection with awards under our 1995 plan. The maximum number of awards and the maximum fair market value of such awards that may be granted under our 1995 plan during any one calendar year to any one grantee is 1,000,000 shares and $4.0 million, respectively.

     Only non-employee directors can participate in our directors plan. Under our directors plan, a total of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock have been reserved in connection with awards. No more than 10% of awards may be granted in the form of restricted stock, subject to antidilution adjustments, and only nonqualified options may be granted under our directors plan.

     Under our 2004 plan, a total of 4,000,000 shares of our common stock have been reserved in connection with awards. The maximum number of awards and the maximum fair market value of such awards that may be granted under our 2004 plan during any one calendar year to any one grantee is 1,000,000 shares and $8.0 million, respectively. No more than 50% of awards may be granted in the form of “full value” awards, such as restricted stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments under our 2004 plan.

     As of January 1, 2006, we had issued two types of equity based payment arrangements: stock options and restricted stock awards.

Stock Options

     The following table summarizes the activity of stock options under our stock plans from December 31, 2005 to September 30, 2006:

			Weighted
			Average	Aggregate
			Exercise	Intrinsic
	Options		Price	Value
Options outstanding at December 31, 2005:	3,793,392		$7.20
Granted	—		0.00
Exercised	(522,228	)	4.15	$  2,104,438
Expired	(514,109	)	10.45
Options outstanding at September 30, 2006	2,757,055		$7.18	$  5,599,058
Options exercisable at September 30, 2006	2,127,517		$6.42	$  5,495,233

     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in the three-month period ended September 30, 2005: dividend yield of 0% in all periods; expected volatility of 64.3% using a weighted average of the historical, implied and guideline company methodologies; risk-free interest rates of 4.2%; and expected lives of four years. No stock options were granted in the nine months of 2006.

     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, we recognized equity based compensation expense of approximately $0.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively, related to the vesting of stock options. As of September 30, 2006, we had approximately $2.2 million of unvested stock options, which we will record in our statement of operations over a weighted average recognition period of less than three years.

Restricted Stock

     The following table summarizes the activity of restricted stock awards under our stock plans from December 31, 2005 to September 30, 2006:

			Weighted	Aggregate
			Average	Intrinsic
	Shares		Price	Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2005	1,389,830		$10.17
Granted	1,816,715		8.03
Vested/Released	(667,795	)	9.02	$5,395,960
Forfeited	(38,333	)	8.11
Outstanding at September 30, 2006	2,500,417		$ 8.95

     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, we recognized equity based compensation expense of approximately $2.2 million and $5.7 million, respectively, related to the vesting of restricted stock. As of September 30, 2006, we had approximately $21.1 million of unvested restricted stock which we will record in our statement of operations over a weighted average recognition period of less than five years.

     In the nine months ended 2005, we recognized approximately $5.1 million in non-cash stock compensation expense for restricted shares and options issued for services. Of this expense, $3.5 million related to restricted stock grants and stock bonuses associated with amended and restated employment agreements and restricted stock agreements entered into in April 2005, effective as of January 1, 2005, with two members of management, $1.5 million related to restricted stock grants to other employees, $0.2 million related to payroll taxes withheld and remitted on behalf of employees on the vesting of restricted stock grants, $(0.3) million related to stock options accounted for under variable accounting because the market value of our common stock was greater than the

14

exercise price of a portion of the options, and $0.2 million was as a result of the modification of a director stock option grant in connection with the resignation of a member of our board of directors in June 2004.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

     Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. These unvested restricted shares, although classified as issued and outstanding at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, are considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic net income per share calculation until the shares are vested.

     Diluted net income per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities. Our outstanding stock options, warrants and unvested restricted shares are potentially dilutive securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The difference between basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding was the dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and the unvested restricted shares, computed as follows:

	Three Months Ended			Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2006			September 30, 2005
		Weighted			Weighted
	Net	Average	Earnings	Net	Average	Earnings
	Income	Share	Per Share	Income	Share	Per Share
Basic EPS	$6,717	67,918,830	$0.10	$9,522	70,325,762	$0.14
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		548,882			767,125
Warrants		—			5,472
Unvested restricted shares		143,410			1,319,134
Diluted EPS	$6,717	68,611,122	$0.10	$9,522	72,417,493	$0.13
	Nine Months Ended			Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2006			September 30, 2005
		Weighted			Weighted
	Net	Average	Earnings	Net	Average	Earnings
	Income	Share	Per Share	Income	Share	Per Share
Basic EPS	$20,383	69,374,518	$0.29	$34,873	70,437,181	$0.50
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		609,214			976,075
Warrants		—			14,672
Unvested restricted shares		163,163			1,029,441
Diluted EPS	$20,383	70,146,895	$ 0.29	$34,873	72,457,369	$0.48

     The weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 excludes the effect of approximately 2.4 million and 2.2 million, respectively, of out-of-the-money options, warrants and restricted shares because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 excludes the effect of approximately 0.8 million of out-of-the-money options because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Lease Commitments

     In the fourth quarter of 2005, our Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications subsidiaries each entered into separate one-floor leases with 3280 Peachtree I LLC for office space for their corporate headquarters at 3280 Peachtree Road, Atlanta, Georgia. The leases have an effective date of August 1, 2007, with terms of 84 months and 23,529 square feet of space on each floor. The leases require an aggregate average annual minimum rent payment of approximately $1.1 million, with first year estimated operating expenses unknown at this time. We have entered into a guaranty with the landlord under each of the leases which guarantees the payment and performance obligations of our Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications subsidiaries.

Asset Retirement Obligation

     In the fourth quarter of 2005, we signed leases for our new corporate headquarters as discussed above, which are effective August 2007. In January 2006, we were notified by our current landlord of their intent to exercise a clause in our existing corporate headquarters lease to require certain site remediation costs to the space prior to us vacating in August 2007. As a result, in accordance with SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (SFAS No. 143), we recorded approximately $0.8 million for remediation costs at December 31, 2005. In June 2006, we revised down our estimate of site remediation costs through negotiations with our landlord and contractors by $0.3 million. The remaining balance in this accrual at September 30, 2006 is $0.4 million.

Supply Agreements

     We purchase telecommunications services pursuant to supply agreements with telecommunications service providers. These contracts generally provide fixed transmission prices for terms of two to four years and are subject to early termination fees in certain events. Some of our telecommunications supply agreements contain commitments that require us to purchase a minimum amount of services through 2009. In the second quarter of 2006, we renegotiated several of these agreements. The aggregate amount of these minimum purchase requirements are approximately $15.0 million, $16.8 million, $7.0 million, and $0.2 million in 2006 through 2009, respectively.

Litigation and Claims

     We have several litigation matters pending, including matters described below, which we are defending vigorously. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the litigation process and the judicial system, we are unable to predict the outcome of such litigation matters. If the outcome of one or more of such matters is adverse to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

     A lawsuit was filed in November 1998 against us and certain of our officers and directors in the Southern District of New York. Plaintiffs were shareholders of Xpedite Systems, Inc. (n/k/a Xpedite Systems, LLC), who acquired our common stock upon our acquisition of our Data Communications subsidiary, Xpedite. Plaintiffs alleged causes of action against us for breach of contract, against all defendants for negligent misrepresentation, violations of Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and against the individual defendants for violation of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Plaintiffs seek undisclosed damages together with pre-and post-judgment interest, rescission or rescissory damages as to violation of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. The defendants’ motion to transfer venue to Georgia was granted. The defendants’ motion to dismiss was granted in part and denied in part. In September 2003, the district court granted in its entirety the defendants’ motion for summary judgment and denied as moot the defendants’ motion in limine. In September 2004, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed as to the dismissal of the negligent misrepresentation and Section 12 claims and reversed and remanded for further proceedings on the Section 11 claim. In October 2004, defendants filed a motion for partial rehearing and partial rehearing en banc as to the Eleventh Circuit’s ruling on the Section 11 claim. That motion was denied by the Eleventh Circuit in November 2004. Thereafter, we filed a motion to stay mandate pending filing of petition for writ of certiorari in the U. S. Supreme Court. That motion was also denied by the Eleventh Circuit in December 2004. The case was remanded to the district court, with only the Section 11 claim remaining. In February 2005, we filed a petition for writ of certiorari

16

in the U.S. Supreme Court for review of the Eleventh Circuit’s Order, which was denied in April 2005. Also, in February 2005, we filed a renewed motion for summary judgment and renewed motion in limine to exclude expert opinions in the district court, which were granted on September 27, 2005. On October 26, 2005, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the Eleventh Circuit, and oral arguments were heard on October 6, 2006.

     On August 21, 2006, a lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texasby Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing, L.P. against three conferencing service providers, including us, alleging that the defendants’ “automated telephone conferencing systems that enable [their] customers to perform multiple-party meetings and various other functions over the telephone” infringe six of plaintiff’s patents. The complaint seeks undisclosed monetary damages, together with pre- and post-judgment interest, treble damages for what is alleged to be willful infringement, attorneys’ fees and costs and injunctive relief. On October 16, 2006, we filed our answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaim to the complaint, including seeking declaratory judgment of noninfringement, invalidity and unenforceability and attorneys’ fees and costs.

     We are also involved in various other legal proceedings which we do not believe will have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations, although no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings.

10. SEGMENT REPORTING

     Our reportable segments align us into two business segments based upon service offerings. These segments are Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications.

     One of Conferencing & Collaboration’s customers, International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), has historically accounted for a significant amount of revenue. Sales to that customer accounted for approximately 2% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (4% of Conferencing & Collaboration segment revenue) in the nine months ended September 30, 2006, and approximately 7% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (14% of Conferencing & Collaboration segment revenue) in the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Because IBM has chosen to insource most of its automated conferencing needs, we expect sales to IBM will account for approximately 2% to 3% of consolidated revenues in 2006.

     In June 2006, we entered into a capital lease for the purchase of network equipment. This capital lease has an implied interest rate of 3.1% and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $0.5 million.

     In March 2005, we entered into a capital lease line for the purchase of various operating equipment. This capital lease line has an implied interest rate that varies between 2.5% and 10.5%, depending on the operating equipment being leased, and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $2.6 million.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In November 2006, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of EC Teleconferencing Pty Limited (ECT), an Australia-based provider of Web and audio conferencing services to small and medium sized businesses, for approximately AU$5.3 million, net of working capital. We funded the purchase with cash on hand and our local line of credit in Japan. We are in the process of completing its valuation of certain intangible assets in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     We are a global outsource provider of business process solutions. Our mission is to simplify and automate critical daily communications between companies and their constituents with proprietary communication technologies-based applications hosted on our global, on-demand platform. We go to market with solutions in four core business practices: Conferencing, which is included in our Conferencing & Collaboration business segment, and Document Solutions, Marketing Automation and Alerts & Notifications, which are included in our Data Communications business segment.

     Key highlights of our financial and strategic accomplishments during the third quarter of 2006 include:

• Grew Web conferencing revenue 30% from the comparable prior year period;
  
  
• Grew revenue from IP fax services by 20% from the third quarter of 2005;
  
  
• Grew revenue from Marketing Automation services by 78% year-over-year;
  
  
• Repurchased 1.3 million shares of common stock in the open market; and
  
  
• Acquired Enunciate Conferencing, Canada's third largest and fastest growing conferencing services provider (Source: Wainhouse Research).

     During the first nine months of 2006, we have continued to focus on our primary business objectives for 2006 of improving sales productivity, improving our customers’ experience and access to our services through automation, delivering more predictable revenue, building brand awareness and pursuing the expanding wireless market opportunity. In order to assist in our efforts to accomplish these objectives, we are in the process of transitioning the delivery of our services as a unified company. For example, we consolidated our management team and realigned our sales and marketing functions focusing their efforts on selling specific solutions within our core business practices. We believe that these initiatives will assist in emphasizing our scale and breadth of services and will allow us to capitalize on cross-selling opportunities within our global enterprise customer base. We expect to record additional restructuring costs in the fourth quarter of 2006 as a result of our continued efforts to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions between both business units.

     In addition, we continued our efforts to transition toward more predictable, recurring revenue by proactively managing our declining legacy broadcast fax business. Specifically, we are seeking to enter into annual or multi-year customer contracts with monthly minimum commitments and flat-rate service plans for these and certain of our other services, and we have focused our sales and marketing efforts on transitioning certain users of our legacy broadcast fax services to newer services like e-mail.

     We also continued our investments in automation designed to improve our customers’ experience and enhance our profitability. Our efforts include the continued development of a customer-centric Web portal that will provide our customers with direct access to our platform and business process solutions directly from their desktops, which we expect to roll-out in the first quarter of 2007.

     We intend to continue to use our cash flows and liquidity to repurchase shares of our common stock and to seek strategic acquisitions that provide us with additional customers, technologies, applications and sales personnel.

     The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year of 2006 or for any other interim period. The financial information presented herein should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 which includes information and disclosures not included herein. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

ANALYSIS

Revenues

     Consolidated revenues increased 1.0% to $122.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with $120.9 million for the same period in 2005 and decreased 2.9% to $369.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with $380.3 million for the same period in 2005. On a reportable segment basis:

• For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration revenue was 56.6% and 51.3% of consolidated revenues, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration revenue was 55.4% and 50.1% of consolidated revenues, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration experienced an 11.3% increase in revenue from $62.1 million to $69.1 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration experienced a 7.2% increase in revenue from $190.6 million to $204.5 million. These increases were primarily associated with growth in our ReadyConference^® Plus and Web collaboration services, which we expect will continue to grow. These increases were augmented by our acquisitions of Intelligent Meetings, Netspoke and the conferencing services business of Citizens Communications during 2005 and the acquisition of Enunciate Conferencing in September 2006. Offsetting this increase was a decline in conferencing revenue from IBM, which was $2.9 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $8.4 million and $26.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. For the remainder of 2006, we do not expect significant declines in

20

conferencing revenue from IBM, since IBM materially completed its transition to an internal automated conferencing solution during the fourth quarter of 2005.


• For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, Data Communications revenue was 43.4% and 48.7% of consolidated revenues, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, Data Communications revenue was 44.6% and 49.9% of consolidated revenues, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, Data Communications experienced a 9.9% decrease in revenue from $58.8 million to $53.0 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, Data Communications experienced a 13.1% decrease in revenue from $189.7 million to $164.9 million. Decreases in revenue were associated with declines in fax services. The declines in fax services revenue are associated with continued price and volume declines in broadcast and transactional fax services. The primary drivers of these declines are associated with regulatory uncertainties in 2005 and the transition of these services to lower priced e-mail services or to customers’ in-house solutions. These declines have been offset by growth in our IP fax services and Marketing Automation service offerings and the acquisition of Accucast during the first quarter of 2006. Fax services revenue was $31.4 million and $38.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $102.1 million and $126.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. We expect continued declines in our fax services revenue as a result of price and volume declines associated with continued trends toward lower priced e-mail delivery services.

     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, consolidated revenues on a geographic region basis decreased in North America to $78.2 million and $238.0 million, respectively, from $78.4 million and $245.3 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2005. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, consolidated revenues in Europe decreased to $22.4 million and $69.7 million, respectively, from $23.1 million and $77.4 million for the same periods in 2005. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, Asia Pacific revenues increased to $21.5 million and $61.7 million, respectively, from $19.4 million and $57.6 million for the same periods in 2005. North America revenue declined primarily as a result of declines in fax revenue and in conferencing revenue from IBM, offset in part by our acquisitions of Accucast, Intelligent Meetings, Netspoke, the conferencing services business of Citizens Communications and Enunciate Conferencing. The declines in Europe were the result of declines in fax services revenue, offset in part by growth in our Conferencing & Collaboration services and the weakening of the U.S. dollar to the Euro and British pound. The growth in Asia Pacific revenue is associated with growth in our Conferencing & Collaboration services, offset by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar to the Australian Dollar. We cannot predict the effect of foreign exchange rate impacts on revenues. An analysis of the effect of foreign exchange to the U.S dollar can be found in Part I, “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this Form 10-Q.

Cost of revenues

     Consolidated cost of revenues increased 15.1% to $49.6 million from $43.1 million and increased to 40.6% of consolidated revenues from 35.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Consolidated cost of revenues increased 7.8% to $147.2 million from $136.6 million and increased to 39.8% of consolidated revenues from 35.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Cost of revenues as a percentage of consolidated revenues increased as a result of the decrease in higher margin fax services revenue and in higher margin conferencing revenue from IBM, continued price compression and increased network regulatory cost charges. Conferencing & Collaboration cost of revenue as a percentage of segment revenue was 37.6% and 34.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 37.6% and 34.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Data Communications cost of revenue as a percentage of segment revenue was 44.5% and 37.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 42.8% and 37.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

21

Selling and marketing

     Consolidated selling and marketing costs increased 1.3% to $31.4 million from $31.0 million and decreased from 25.7% of consolidated revenues to 25.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Consolidated selling and marketing costs increased 0.2% to $97.9 million from $97.7 million and increased to 26.5% of consolidated revenues from 25.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The increase in selling and marketing costs is the result of significant declines in fax services revenue, which has a significantly lower selling and marketing cost than our other service offerings, offset in part by reductions in selling and marketing resources within Data Communications. We also invested in additional advertising and marketing efforts to promote our PremiereAnywhere mobile solutions and to promote brand awareness of all of our services. Conferencing & Collaboration selling and marketing costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 25.0% and 25.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 26.0% and 25.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Data Communications selling and marketing costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 24.7% and 25.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 25.6% and 25.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Research and development

     Consolidated research and development costs increased 14.8% to $3.1 million from $2.7 million and increased to 2.5% of consolidated revenues from 2.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Consolidated research and development costs increased 12.8% to $8.8 million from $7.8 million and increased to 2.4% of consolidated revenues from 2.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. These costs increased as a percentage of consolidated revenues as a result of a greater amount of internal costs spent on routine maintenance of new and existing product platforms. Research and development costs associated with product development are capitalized as internally developed software, whereas management overhead, facilities costs and maintenance activities are expensed as research and development. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we capitalized approximately $2.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of software development costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we capitalized approximately $5.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of software development costs. Conferencing & Collaboration research and development costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 1.6% and 1.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 1.6% and 1.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Data Communications research and development costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 3.4% and 2.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 3.1% and 2.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

General and administrative

     Consolidated general and administrative costs increased 0.7% to $15.4 million from $15.3 million and decreased to 12.6% of consolidated revenues from 12.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Consolidated general and administrative increased 0.7% to $44.0 million from $43.7 million and increased to 11.9% of consolidated revenues from 11.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. General and administrative costs remained relatively flat primarily as a result of significant declines in fax services revenue and in conferencing revenue from IBM, which each carry lower general and administrative costs than our other service offerings, offset in both comparable periods by bad debt provided on specific large customers in Europe and North America. Total bad debt provisions were $1.6 million and $2.3 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Conferencing & Collaboration general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 8.0% and 7.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 7.1% and 6.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Data Communications general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 10.0% and 11.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 9.6% and 9.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Corporate unallocated general and administrative costs as a percentage of consolidated revenues were 3.8% and 3.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 3.7% and 3.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

22

Depreciation

     Consolidated depreciation expense increased 14.8% to $6.2 million from $5.4 million and increased to 5.1% of consolidated revenues from 4.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. For the three month period ended September 30, 2006, depreciation expense as a percentage of consolidated revenues increased from the comparable prior year period as a result of our investment in new service offerings and internal infrastructure improvement during a period of time when fax services revenue and conferencing revenue from IBM have each declined. Consolidated depreciation expense decreased 1.6% to $18.0 million from $18.3 million and increased to 4.9% of consolidated revenues from 4.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, depreciation costs as a percentage of consolidated revenues have declined temporarily as a result of our ability to utilize excess capacity from fax services and IBM to accommodate growth in other service offerings and our ability to invest in more longer term, efficient and cost effective capital to support our business. Conferencing & Collaboration depreciation expense as a percentage of segment revenue was 3.9% and 4.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 3.7% and 4.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Data Communications depreciation expense as a percentage of segment revenue was 5.8% and 4.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 5.7% and 5.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As a percentage of consolidated revenues, the increase in depreciation expense over the prior periods is primarily the result of a non-recurring refund received in the third quarter of 2005 of New Jersey state sales taxes previously paid on Data Communications equipment purchased in New Jersey that had been fully depreciated. Corporate depreciation as a percentage of consolidated revenues was 0.3% and 0.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 0.3% and 0.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Amortization

     Consolidated amortization expense decreased to $3.3 million and $9.5 million, or 2.7% and 2.6% of consolidated revenues, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, from $3.6 million and $10.0 million, or 3.6% and 2.6% of consolidated revenues, for the comparable periods in 2005. Amortization expense remained flat as a result of intangibles acquired five years ago becoming fully amortized, offset by amortization from our acquisitions of Accucast, Intelligent Meetings, Netspoke, the conferencing services business of Citizens Communications and Enunciate Conferencing.

Restructuring costs

Realignment of Workforce – 2006

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we continued to execute our long-range plans that began during 2005 to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions between Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications. We expect further restructuring costs as we finalize the execution of these plans during 2006. As a result of these consolidation efforts, we recorded restructuring costs for future severance payments of approximately $3.6 million for approximately 45 employees in the customer service, finance, operations and sales and marketing functions in all regions of both business segments. In addition, we recorded $0.6 million of lease termination costs associated with five locations that we vacated as a result of consolidation efforts between our two business segments. We expect to pay the severance obligations and a majority of the lease termination costs during 2006 and 2007. Our reserve for these restructuring costs at September 30, 2006 was $1.9 million.

Realignment of Workforce - 2005

     During 2005, we executed a long-range plan to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions and re-align our sales force. This plan encompasses managing ourselves under the “Premiere Global Services” brand name as opposed to separate businesses. As a result of this plan, we have recorded restructuring costs for future severance payments of $3.3 million. During the first half of 2005, these costs were associated with a reduction in workforce of approximately 20 employees in various European country-level and North America finance functions in our Data Communications business segment. During the third quarter of 2005, these costs were

23

associated with a reduction in workforce of approximately 90 employees in selling and marketing, operations and finance functions at both business segments, primarily in North America and Europe. The reduction in non-financial functions was the result of the significant declines during the third quarter in our legacy North America broadcast fax services and weakness in our Data Communications European operations. The reduction in financial functions during the third quarter was the result of the continuation of a long-range plan to consolidate duplicative business processes and functions, primarily in finance, within Europe and North America, for which we incurred restructuring charges in the first and second quarters of 2005. In the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we paid approximately $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, related to severance and exit costs. In addition, in the second quarter of 2006, we adjusted the restructuring reserve in Europe by $0.2 million as a result of actual severance payments to certain individuals being less than originally estimated. Management expects to pay the remaining severance obligations during 2006. Our reserve for these restructuring costs at September 30, 2006 is $0.1 million.

Interest expense, net

     Net interest expense increased to $2.5 million and $6.2 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, from $1.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2005. Interest expense increased primarily as a result of the increase in domestic interest rates and an increased outstanding position on our line of credit, with average debt outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 at $128.6 million and $109.0 million, respectively. Average debt outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $118.5 million and $96.0 million, respectively.

Loss on sale of marketable securities

     During 2005, we bought and sold securities of various companies operating in the same industries as Conferencing & Collaboration and Data Communications. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, we sold the remaining shares of these investment securities for aggregate proceeds of $0.8 million less commissions, recognizing a loss of $0.1 million. As of September 30, 2006, we do not hold any marketable securities of companies that are publicly traded.

Other, net

     Other, net was ($0.2) million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $0.1 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005. Other, net was comprised primarily of third party and intercompany foreign exchange gains and losses associated with the settlement of transactions in currencies other than the currency in which they were originally executed.

Effective income tax rate

     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, our effective income tax rate varied from the statutory rate primarily as a result of non-deductible executive compensation expenses. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2006, we recorded approximately $0.7 million in future foreign tax credits associated with dividends expected to be received from our Japanese subsidiaries. Changes in valuation allowances and estimates are required when facts and circumstances indicate that realization of tax benefits or the actual amount of taxes expected to be paid has changed.

     We believe we are appropriately accrued for income taxes. If we are required to pay an amount less than or exceeding our provisions for uncertain tax matters, the financial impact will be reflected in the period in which the matter is resolved. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, we may need to adjust our tax accounts which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Discontinued operations

     In July 2005, we settled the litigation with JOBA, a franchisee of our former Voicecom reportable segment. The parties to the consolidated actionand certain other individuals and entities entered into a settlement agreement which provided for payment in aggregate of approximately $1.1 million to JOBA by our subsidiary, Voice-Tel, and

24

by a party to the litigation but unrelated to us, Voicecom. Approximately $0.9 million of this aggregate settlement payment was funded by Voice-Tel and approximately $0.2 million was funded by Voicecom in consideration, for among other things, dismissal of the litigation, with prejudice, mutual releases and covenants not to sue and termination of the JOBA franchise.

     During the second quarter of 2005, we changed the estimated liability for certain lease obligations associated with the discontinued operations of our former Voicecom reportable segment. The change is associated with the failure to sublease certain floor space that was assumed in the original estimate.

SFAS No. 123(R) — Stock Options Issued Before January 1, 2006

     Upon our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), we recorded compensation cost relating to the vesting of all stock options that remained unvested as of January 1, 2006, and will record compensation cost for all new stock option grants after our adoption date. The compensation cost to be recorded is based on the fair value at the grant dates. The amounts recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 of approximately $0.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively, represents equity based compensation relating to the vesting of options that were still unvested as of January 1, 2006. There was no such expense recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Acquisitions

     We seek to acquire companies that increase our market share and bring us additional customers, technology, applications and sales personnel. All revenues and related costs from these transactions have been included in our consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of each acquisition.

Conferencing & Collaboration

     In September 2006, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired certain assets and the stock of Enunciate Conferencing, a Canadian-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $25.9 million in cash at closing and $0.6 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141), and approximately $0.2 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.1 million has been allocated to other acquisition liabilities, $6.1 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists and $0.2 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. Because we have not finalized the closing balance sheet, the residual $20.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated preliminarily to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In August 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired all of the outstanding stock of Netspoke, a U.S.-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $23.4 million in cash at closing and $0.5 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $1.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.7 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $1.7 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities, $2.9 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists, $1.0 million has been allocated to developed technology and $0.6 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists, developed technology and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. In addition, $1.8 million has been allocated to long-term deferred tax liabilities to record the step-up in basis for the customer intangible assets purchased. The residual $21.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In June 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Intelligent Meetings, a U.S.-based provider of audio and Web conferencing services. We paid $6.2 million in cash at closing and $0.1 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $0.4 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.1 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.1 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities, $2.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists and $0.1 million has been allocated to a non-compete agreement, with the identifiable customer lists

25

and non-compete agreement amortized over five-year useful lives. The residual $3.8 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

     In March 2005, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of the audio and Web conferencing services business of Citizens Communications, primarily servicing customers in the U.S. We paid $43.2 million in cash at closing and $0.2 million in transaction fees and closing costs. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $2.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquired working capital, $0.9 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $2.5 million has been allocated to severance and certain other acquisition liabilities and $6.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists which are being amortized over a five-year useful life. The residual $36.9 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

Data Communications

     In January 2006, Data Communications acquired all of the outstanding stock of Accucast,, a U.S.-based provider of e-mail communications services. We paid $12.3 million in cash at closing and $0.5 million in transaction and closing costs. During 2006, we paid an additional $1.5 million cash purchase price upon the achievement of the first milestone target as specified in the purchase agreement. We may pay up to an additional $1.5 million in cash purchase price based upon the achievement of additional milestone integration targets as specified in the purchase agreement. We funded the purchase through our line of credit. We followed SFAS No. 141, and approximately $0.2 million has been allocated to acquired fixed assets, $0.3 million has been allocated to other acquisition liabilities, $2.0 million has been allocated to developed technology and $1.0 million has been allocated to identifiable customer lists, with the identifiable customer lists and developed technology amortized over five-year useful lives. In addition, $1.1 million has been allocated to long-term deferred tax liabilities to record the step-up in basis for the customer lists and developed technology purchased. Because we have not finalized the working capital true-up, the residual $12.5 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated preliminarily to goodwill, which is subject to a periodic impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of September 30, 2006, we had $22.6 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $20.5 million as of December 31, 2005. Cash balances residing outside of the U.S. as of September 30, 2006 were $21.2 million compared to $19.9 million as of December 31, 2005. We repatriate cash for repayment of royalties and management fees charged to international locations from the U.S. Therefore, foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from these transactions are recorded in “Other, net” on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries generally are considered to be permanently invested for the foreseeable future. Therefore, foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from these transactions are recorded in the cumulative translation adjustment account on face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Based on our potential cash position and potential conditions in the capital markets, we could require repayment of these loans despite the long-term intention to hold them as permanent investments. At September 30, 2006, we had approximately $142.0 million of availability under our existing $300.0 million line of credit. For a discussion of our line of credit, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources – Capital resources.”

Cash provided by operating activities

     Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled approximately $41.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to cash provided by operating activities of approximately $72.6 million for the same period in 2005. The decrease in operating cash flows is attributable to decreased net income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005, as well as an increase in domestic income taxes paid because we have fully utilized our domestic net operating loss carryforwards that were not subject to Section 382 limitations of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. These decreases were supplemented by increased payments for restructuring costs and legal settlements.

26

Cash used in investing activities

     Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations totaled $70.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to cash used in investing activities from continuing operations totaling $100.2 million for the same period in 2005. The principal uses of cash from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were primarily associated with $26.8 million of capital expenditures and $43.3 million for costs associated with the acquisitions of Accucast and Enunciate Conferencing and costs associated with prior year acquisitions. The principal uses of cash in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 include $22.5 million of capital expenditures and $78.1 million of costs associated with the acquisitions of Netspoke, Intelligent Meetings, the conferencing services business of Citizens Communications and costs associated with prior year acquisitions. These cash uses were offset slightly by net proceeds from the purchase and sale of marketable securities of $0.4 million.

Cash provided by financing activities

     Cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 totaled $30.4 million compared with cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations of $31.0 million for the same period in 2005. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 included $57.8 million of net borrowings on our line of credit to fund treasury stock purchases of $29.6 million and proceeds from stock option exercises of $2.2 million. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 included $43.5 million of net borrowings on our line of credit to fund stock repurchases, proceeds from payment of shareholder note receivables from our chief executive officer of $4.0 million and proceeds from stock option exercises of $7.9 million, offset by stock repurchases of $24.4 million.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

     As of September 30, 2006, we did not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.

State sales taxes

     We record provisions for certain state sales tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, as needed in accordance with SFAS No. 5. Historically, we have not collected sales tax from our Conferencing & Collaboration customers or remitted sales taxes to states. We were recently audited by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue claiming that our audio conferencing services are subject to sales tax in Massachusetts. In March 2006, we began assessing sales tax to our customers in Massachusetts as a result of this audit. In July 2006, we paid an initial payment of approximately $1.2 million to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue for taxable years prior to 2005. Amounts associated with 2005 and early 2006 are still under review and have yet to be settled. We continue to work with Massachusetts in their on-going audit. More states may claim that we are subject to an assessment of sales taxes. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had approximately $4.4 million and $5.7 million, respectively, accrued for certain potential state sales tax exposure comprised of sales taxes, penalties and interest. This amount is included in “Accrued taxes” on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. We believe we are appropriately accrued for these potential exposures. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, we may need to adjust our sales tax liability which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations. Historically, we have collected and remitted sales tax from our Data Communications customers in applicable states. However, it is possible states may disagree with our method of assessing and remitting these taxes. We believe we are properly assessing and remitting these state sales taxes in applicable jurisdictions.

Income taxes

     The provision for income taxes and corresponding balance sheet accounts are determined in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). Under SFAS 109, the deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on temporary differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes, in addition to net operating loss carryforwards which are reasonably assured of

27

being utilized. These differences are primarily attributable to differences in the recognition of depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets, allowances for doubtful accounts and certain employee benefit accruals. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

     We recorded provisions for certain asserted international and state income tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, when needed, in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” (SFAS No. 5). As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had approximately $4.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, accrued for this potential exposure comprised of income taxes, penalties and interest. Since December 31, 2005, we provided for an additional $1.5 million accrual based on the results of a preliminary audit with a state that questioned our methodology used in allocating taxable income to it from other states in which we are not subject to income tax. We believe our methodology is consistent with generally accepted methods used in other states but believe that it is more likely than not we will incur this liability. This amount is classified as “Income taxes payable” on the face of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In the normal course of business, we are subject to challenges from U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These challenges may result in adjustments of the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. Further, during the ordinary course of business, other changing facts and circumstances may impact our ability to utilize income tax benefits as well as the estimated taxes to be paid in future periods. We believe we are appropriately accrued for income tax exposures. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, we may need to adjust income tax accounts which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Capital resources

     In April 2006, we closed an amendment to our credit facility, with a syndicate led by Bank of America that increased the amount available to us under our line of credit from $180 million to $300 million, reduced the applicable percentages across the pricing grid and extended the maturity of the credit facility from February 2009 to April 2011. The amendment also provided for an uncommitted accordion feature allowing for an additional increase of $100 million to $400 million of the revolving credit line, subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in the amendment. The credit facility is subject to customary covenants for secured credit facilities of this nature. Certain of our material domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the credit facility, which is secured by substantially all of our assets and the assets of our material domestic subsidiaries. In addition, we have pledged as collateral all of the issued and outstanding stock of our material domestic subsidiaries and 65% of our material foreign subsidiaries. We believe that as of September 30, 2006, we were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants under our line of credit and have obtained any required waivers or consents from lenders, as applicable. Proceeds drawn under this credit agreement may be used for refinancing of existing debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. The annual interest rate applicable to borrowings under the line of credit, at our option, is the base rate (the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the Bank of America prime rate) or LIBOR, plus, in each case, an applicable margin which will vary based upon our leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter. At September 30, 2006, the applicable margin with respect to base rate loans was 0.0%, and the applicable margin with respect to LIBOR loans was 1.00% .. At September 30, 2006, our interest rate on 30-day LIBOR loans was 6.32% . As of September 30, 2006, we had $157.1 million of borrowings outstanding and $0.9 million in letters of credit outstanding under our line of credit.

     In March and September 2006, we entered into a yen denominated line of credit for ¥200.0 million and ¥300.0 million, respectively, with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, which has an implied interest rate of 1.4% on ¥300.0 million and 1.6% on ¥200.0 million through April 2007. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was approximately $2.5 million.

     In June 2006, we entered into a capital lease for the purchase of network equipment. This capital lease has an implied interest rate of 3.1% and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $0.5 million.

     In March 2005, we entered into a capital lease for the purchase of various operating and network equipment. This capital lease line has an implied interest rate that varies between 2.5% and 10.5%, depending on the operating equipment being leased, and a term of 36 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $2.6 million.

28

     In September 2004, Data Communications entered into a capital lease for the purchase of network equipment. This capital lease has an implied interest rate of 3.3% and a term of 60 months. The principal balance at September 30, 2006 was $0.3 million.

     In February 2006, we entered into a three-year $50.0 million interest rate swap at a fixed rate of 4.99%, and in August 2006, we entered into two separate three-year $12.5 million interest rate swaps at 5.135% and 5.159% respectively. All of these swaps are exclusive of our applicable margin as stated in our credit facility. The interest rate swaps effectively convert the interest payments on $75.0 million of our LIBOR-based borrowings to a fixed rate. We have not designated these interest rate swaps as hedges and are accounting for them in accordance with SFAS No.133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” Changes in fair value, which were immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, are recognized in earnings.

     At September 30, 2006, we had no other indebtedness outstanding except for the borrowings under our lines of credit and the capital lease obligations as listed above.

Liquidity

     As of September 30, 2006, we had $22.6 million of cash and cash equivalents. We generated positive operating cash flows from each of our business segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006. Each business segment had sufficient cash flows from operations to service existing debt obligations, to fund capital expenditure requirements, which are historically approximately 4% to 6% of annual consolidated revenues, and to fund research and development costs for new services and enhancements to existing services, which are historically approximately 2% to 3% of annual consolidated revenues. In 2006, we expect capital expenditure funding requirements to be slightly higher than our historical averages due to additional spending on new and existing product platforms. Assuming no material change to these costs, which we do not anticipate, we believe that we will generate adequate operating cash flows for capital expenditures, research and development needs and contractual commitments and to satisfy our indebtedness and fund our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months. We have drawn on our line of credit in order to fund certain acquisitions and stock repurchases. At September 30, 2006, we had $142.0 million of undrawn available credit on our existing $300.0 million line of credit.

     We regularly review our capital structure and evaluate potential alternatives in light of current conditions in the capital markets. Depending upon conditions in these markets, cash flows from our operating segments and other factors, we may engage in other capital transactions. These capital transactions include but are not limited to debt or equity issuances or credit facilities with banking institutions.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In November 2006, Conferencing & Collaboration acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of EC Teleconferencing Pty Limited (ECT), an Australia-based provider of Web and audio conferencing services to small and medium sized businesses, for approximately AU$5.3 million, net of working capital. We funded the purchase with cash on hand and our local line of credit in Japan. We are in the process of completing its valuation of certain intangible assets in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We have reviewed the accounting policies used in reporting our financial results on a regular basis. We have reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures with the audit

29

committee of our board of directors. We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our financial condition and results of operations:

• revenue recognition;
  
  
• allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable;
  
  
• goodwill and other intangible assets;
  
  
• income taxes;
  
  
• restructuring costs; and
  
  
• legal contingencies.

     For a detailed discussion on the application of these accounting policies, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that we recognize in our financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 will be effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on our financial statements.

     In September 2006, the SEC staff added Section N to SAB Topic 1 through the issuance of “Financial Statements – Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Qualifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (SAB 108). SAB 108 addresses how a registrant should evaluate whether an error in its financial statements is material. The guidance in SAB 108 will be effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SAB 108 on our financial statements.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     When used in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and elsewhere by us or by management from time to time, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition.

For those statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and reflect future business decisions which are subject to change. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements, including the following factors:

• Our ability to compete based on price and against our existing and future competitors;

30

• Our ability to respond to rapid technological change and the development of alternatives to our services;
• Market acceptance of new services and enhancements to existing services;
• Costs or difficulties related to the integration of any new or acquired businesses and technologies;

• Continued weakness in Data Communications’ legacy broadcast fax business;
• Our ability to increase revenues from existing or new Conferencing & Collaboration customers to make up for lost revenues from one of our historically largest customers;
• Our ability to efficiently utilize or re-negotiate minimum purchase requirements in our telecommunications supply agreements;
• Increased leverage may harm our financial condition and results of operations;
• Our dependence on our subsidiaries for cash flow may negatively affect our business and our ability to pay amounts due under our indebtedness;
• Our financial performance could cause future write-downs of goodwill or other intangible assets in future periods;
• Assessment of income, state sales and other taxes for which we have not accrued;
• Our ability to attract and retain qualified key personnel;
• Possible adverse results of pending or future litigation or adverse results of current or future infringement claims;

• Domestic and international terrorist activity, war and political instability may adversely affect the level of services utilized by our customers and the ability of those customers to pay for services utilized;

31

• General economic or business conditions, internationally, nationally or in the local jurisdiction in which we are doing business, may be less favorable than expected;
  
  
• Factors described under the caption Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006; and
  
  
• Factors described from time to time in our press releases, reports and other filings made with the SEC.

We caution that these factors are not exclusive. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in other documents filed with the SEC are qualified by these cautionary statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We take on no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q, or the date of the statement, if a different date.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities. In addition, in February 2006, we entered into a three-year $50.0 million interest rate swap at a fixed rate of 4.99%, and in August 2006, we entered into two separate three-year $12.5 million interest rate swaps at 5.135% and 5.159% respectively. All of these swaps are exclusive of our applicable margin as stated in our credit facility. These interest rate swaps effectively convert the interest payments of $75.0 million of our LIBOR-based borrowings to a fixed rate.

     At September 30, 2006, we had borrowings of approximately $82.1 million outstanding under our line of credit that are subject to interest rate risk. Each 100 basis point increase in interest rates relative to these borrowings would impact annual pre-tax earnings and cash flows by approximately $1.0 million based on our September 30, 2006 debt level.

     Approximately 37.2% of our consolidated revenues and 35.9% of our consolidated operating costs and expenses were transacted in foreign currencies for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. As a result, fluctuations in exchange rates impact the amount of our reported revenues and operating income when translated into U.S. dollars. A hypothetical positive or negative change of 10% in foreign currency exchange rates would positively or negatively change consolidated revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 by approximately $13.7 million and consolidated operating costs and expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 by approximately $10.5 million. We have not used derivatives to manage foreign currency exchange translation risk, and no foreign currency exchange derivatives were outstanding at September 30, 2006.

     Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2006. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of September 30, 2006, to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

     There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We have several litigation matters pending, including matters described below, which we are defending vigorously. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the litigation process and the judicial system, we are unable to predict the outcome of such litigation matters. If the outcome of one or more of such matters is adverse to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

     A lawsuit was filed in November 1998 against us and certain of our officers and directors in the Southern District of New York. Plaintiffs were shareholders of Xpedite, who acquired our common stock upon our acquisition of our Data Communications subsidiary, Xpedite. Plaintiffs alleged causes of action against us for breach of contract, against all defendants for negligent misrepresentation, violations of Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and against the individual defendants for violation of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Plaintiffs seek undisclosed damages together with pre- and post-judgment interest, rescission or rescissory damages as to violation of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. The defendants’ motion to transfer venue to Georgia was granted. The defendants’ motion to dismiss was granted in part and denied in part. In September 2003, the district court granted in its entirety the defendants’ motion for summary judgment and denied as moot the defendants’ motion in limine. In September 2004, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed as to the dismissal of the negligent misrepresentation and Section 12 claims and reversed and remanded for further proceedings on the Section 11 claim. In October 2004, defendants filed a motion for partial rehearing and partial rehearing en banc as to the Eleventh Circuit’s ruling on the Section 11 claim. That motion was denied by the Eleventh Circuit in November 2004. Thereafter, we filed a motion to stay mandate pending filing of petition for writ of certiorari in the U. S. Supreme Court. That motion was also denied by the Eleventh Circuit in December 2004. The case was remanded to the district court, with only the Section 11 claim remaining. In February 2005, we filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the U.S. Supreme Court for review of the Eleventh Circuit’s Order, which was denied in April 2005. Also, in February 2005, we filed a renewed motion for summary judgment and renewed motion in limine to exclude expert opinions in the district court, which were granted on September 27, 2005. On October 26, 2005, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the Eleventh Circuit, and oral arguments were heard on October 6, 2006.

     On August 21, 2006, a lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texasby Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing against three conferencing service providers, including us, alleging that the defendants’ “automated telephone conferencing systems that enable [their] customers to perform multiple-party meetings and various other functions over the telephone” infringe six of plaintiff’s patents. The complaint seeks undisclosed monetary damages, together with pre- and post-judgment interest, treble damages for what is alleged to be willful infringement, attorneys’ fees and costs and injunctive relief. On October 16, 2006, we filed our answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaim to the complaint, including seeking declaratory judgment of noninfringement, invalidity and unenforceability and attorneys’ fees and costs.

     We are also involved in various other legal proceedings which we do not believe will have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations, although no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

     Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 includes a detailed discussion of risk factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Other than with respect to the following risk factors previously disclosed in our SEC filings and updated below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in those reports.

34

If claims alleging patent, copyright or trademark infringement are brought against us and successfully prosecuted against us, they could result in substantial costs.

     Many patents, copyrights and trademarks have been issued in the general areas of information services, telecommunications, computer telephony and the Internet. From time to time, in the ordinary course of our business, we have been and expect to continue to receive notices, or be subject to third party claims or proceedings, alleging that our current or future products or services infringe the patent, copyright or trademark rights or other intellectual property rights of third parties. For example, on August 21, 2006, a lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas by Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing, L.P. against three conferencing service providers, including us, alleging patent infringement. The complaint seeks undisclosed monetary damages, together with pre- and post-judgment interest, treble damages for what is alleged to be willful infringement, attorneys’ fees and costs and injunctive relief. In addition, certain of our former Voicecom customers have alleged that we are obligated to indemnify them against patent infringement claims made by Katz against such customers. We do not believe that we have an obligation to indemnify such customers. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter, and an adverse outcome could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

     We ultimately may not prevail on any such claims and any claiming parties may have significantly greater resources than we have to pursue litigation of these types of claims. Any infringement claim, whether with or without merit, could:

• be time consuming and a diversion to management;
  
  
• result in costly litigation;
  
  
• cause delays in introducing new services or enhancements; and
  
  
• result in costly royalty or licensing agreements.

If a successful claim is made against us and we fail to develop non-infringing technology, our business, financial condition and results of operation could be materially adversely affected.

Regulatory and legislative changes may discourage certain customers from using some of our Data Communications services and could adversely impact our results of operations.

     Legislative and regulatory changes have imposed additional restrictions that may impact our business. Such changes include the passage of federal legislation to curb unsolicited commercial e-mail and additional restrictions on telemarketing and unsolicited fax advertising. These changes include the establishment of a nationwide “do not call” registry for residential and wireless telephone numbers. The Telephone Communications Protection Act of 1991, as amended (TCPA), and associated rules promulgated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) prohibit the sending of unsolicited fax advertisements and proscribe certain telemarketing practices. Other federal laws implemented by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) also substantially regulate telemarketing. The FTC recently proposed to bar prerecorded telemarketing calls except in instances of prior express consent. If adopted, this action could impact customer use of our broadcast voice services to the extent a customer sought to use this service for marketing messages, distinct from informational/transactional messages. In addition to federal laws and regulations, there are numerous state laws and regulations governing such activities. Compliance with applicable laws and regulations could have an adverse impact on the volume of fax, e-mail and voice messages sent utilizing Data Communications’ platforms. For example, although Congress amended the TCPA by passing the Junk Fax Prevention Act of 2005 (JFPA) to expressly permit the faxing of advertisements to entities and persons that have an established business relationship (EBR) with a sender provided certain conditions are met, Congress also imposed new notice language for fax advertisements and mandated an opt-out mechanism. In April 2006, the FCC issued rules to implement the JFPA that went into effect on August 1, 2006. The rules clarify the definition of EBR and also require that in addition to the EBR, the sender must have obtained the facsimile number at issue directly from the recipient, from a directory or Internet site voluntarily made available by a recipient or that the EBR pre-dated July 9, 2005. The FCC also clarified the requirements of the new opt-out notice. Among other requirements under the new rules, opt-out requests submitted by fax recipients must be implemented within 30 days. Despite the passage of the JFPA, new notice requirements and any future time limits on the EBR exemption may discourage use

35

by some of our Data Communications customers of our broadcast fax services and could adversely impact our Data Communications revenue. In addition, we could be subject to litigation concerning our compliance and our customers’ compliance with these laws and regulations, as well as governmental enforcement actions, regulatory fines and penalties.

AMENDMENT TO THE
PREMIERE GLOBAL SERVICES, INC.
2004 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

          This Amendment to the Premiere Global Services, Inc. 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), is hereby adopted this 29^th day of September, 2006, by the Board of Directors of Premiere Global Services, Inc. (the “Company”).

          WHEREAS, the Company adopted the Plan for the purposes set forth therein; and

          WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 15 of the Plan, the Board of Directors of the Company has the right to amend the Plan with respect to certain matters; and

          WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has approved and authorized this Amendment to the Plan;

          NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended, effective as of the date hereof, in the following particulars:

          1.           By deleting Article 14 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

ARTICLE 14
CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

          14.1.      MANDATORY ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between the Company and its shareholders that causes the per-share value of the Stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large nonrecurring cash dividend), the authorization limits under Section 5.1 and 5.4 shall be adjusted proportionately, and the Committee shall make such adjustments to the Plan and Awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction. Action by the Committee may include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding Awards or the measure to be used to determine the amount of the benefit payable on an Award; and (iv) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock (stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser number of Shares, the authorization limits under Section 5.1 and 5.4 shall automatically be adjusted proportionately, and the Shares then subject to each Award shall automatically, without the necessity for any additional action by the Committee, be adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor.

          14.2      DISCRETIONARY ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence or in anticipation of any corporate event or transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or exchange of shares, or any transaction described in Section 14.1), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide (i) that Awards will be settled

in cash rather than Stock, (ii) that Awards will become immediately vested and exercisable and will expire after a designated period of time to the extent not then exercised, (iii) that Awards will be assumed by another party to a transaction or otherwise be equitably converted or substituted in connection with such transaction, (iv) that outstanding Awards may be settled by payment in cash or cash equivalents equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Stock, as of a specified date associated with the transaction, over the exercise price of the Award, (v) that performance targets and performance periods for Performance Awards will be modified, consistent with Code Section 162(m) where applicable, or (vi) any combination of the foregoing. The Committee’s determination need not be uniform and may be different for different Participants whether or not such Participants are similarly situated.

          14.3      GENERAL. Any discretionary adjustments made pursuant to this Article 14 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 15.2. To the extent that any adjustments made pursuant to this Article 14 cause Incentive Stock Options to cease to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, such Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options.

All other provisions of the Plan shall remain the same.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Premiere Global Services, Inc., by a duly authorized officer, has executed this Amendment to the Plan, this 29^th day of September 2006.

          2.3          Subsection (e) of Section 2.02 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

Delivery by any party hereto of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by facsimile shall be effective as such party’s original executed counterpart and shall constitute a representation that such party’s original executed counterpart will be delivered.

          8.           Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.
