                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT




To the Board of Directors of
PCS One, Inc.



We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of PCS One, Inc. (a New Jersey
corporation in the development stage) as of December 31, 1996, and the related
statements of operations and accumulated deficit, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the year then ended and for the period from inception (October 4,
1994) to December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of PCS One, Inc. as of December
31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then
ended and for the period from inception to December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



 1.  DEVELOPMENT-STAGE RISKS

     PCS One, Inc. (the Company) is a development-stage company incorporated in
     New Jersey on October 11, 1994. The Company was created to provide personal
     communication services in selected basic trading areas throughout the
     United States. These services will be offered on the personal communication
     service band which is currently being pursued via the Federal Communication
     Commission (FCC) C Block competitive licensed auctions.

     The Company has incurred losses since its inception and is subject to risks
     associated with being a development-stage company. Substantial financing
     will be required by the Company to fund development of the operating
     systems and to fund operations for the first several years. There is no
     assurance that such financing will be available when needed or that the
     Company's planned services will be commercially successful.

     There was no activity of the Company from October 11, 1994 through December
     31, 1994.


 2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
     original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash
     equivalents at December 31, 1996 consist of investments in money repurchase
     agreements.

     Nature of Operations and Concentration of Credit Risk

     The Company has acquired the C Band license to provide wireless
     communications services to the Lancaster, Pennsylvania market area. The
     Company may be affected by general business conditions, zoning laws, and
     existing competitors within this defined area.

     Organizational Costs

     Organizational costs of $394,745 have been capitalized and represent the
     legal fees, professional fees and other costs of bringing the Company into
     legal existence and negotiating certain agreements. These costs are
     amortized to expense over a 60-month period. Amortization expense related
     to these organizational costs for the year ended December 31, 1996 was
     $66,807.

     Income Taxes

     The Company follows the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting
     for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the liability method of accounting
     for deferred income taxes.

                     NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Cont'd)



 2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)

     Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial
     statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
     reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Common Stock

     The Company is authorized to issue 6,000,000 shares of Class I Common
     Stock, $.001 par value (the "Class I Common Stock") and 57,975,000 shares
     of Class II Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Class II Common Stock" and
     together with the Class I Common Stock, the "Common Stock"). At December
     31, 1996, 4,800,000 shares of Class I Common Stock and 450,000 shares of
     Class II Common Stock were issued and outstanding.

     The Class I Common Stock is entitled to such number of votes per share as
     is required so that the outstanding shares of Class I Common Stock at all
     times represent a majority of the votes held by the outstanding Class I
     Common Stock, the Class II Common Stock, and the Preferred Stock, voting
     together as a single class. The Class II Common Stock will be entitled to
     one vote per share.

     At such time as the Company is no longer required to maintain voting
     control in the Control Group under applicable FCC regulations, each share
     of Class I Common Stock will automatically convert into one share of Class
     II Common Stock.

     Preferred Stock

     The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock
     (the "Preferred Stock"), 22,500,000 of which have been designated Series A
     Convertible Preferred Stock, $.01 per value (the "Convertible Preferred
     Stock"). At December 31, 1996, 22,000,000 shares of the Convertible
     Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A
     Convertible Preferred Stock shall have voting privileges equivalent to the

 2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)

     Earnings Per Share

     Earnings per share are computed by dividing the loss by the weighted
     average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding
     for each period. Common shares outstanding at December 31, 1996 consisted
     of 4,800,000 shares of Class I Common Stock and 450,000 shares of Class II
     Common Stock. Common Stock equivalents outstanding at December 31, 1996
     consisted of 22,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
     Each share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is equivalent to one
     share of common stock.


 3.  FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION AUCTION DEPOSIT

     The Company had deposited $18,000,000 with the FCC as an up front payment
     in order to qualify as a bidder in the C Band competitive licensed
     auctions. During 1996, the Company won the Lancaster, Pennsylvania license
     and the deposit was refunded. At the same time, the Company returned
     $21,710,000 of additional paid-in capital to the stockholders.


 4.  PCS LICENSE

     The Company was the successful bidder for the Lancaster, Pennsylvania C
     Band license. A total of $13,198,416 was paid for the license, of which
     90%, or $11,878,574, was financed by the FCC (see note 7). The Company has
     capitalized interest costs of $298,573 which were incurred to finance the
     license since date of acquisition. Amortization of the licensing costs will
     begin with the commencement of service to customers.


 5.  SYSTEM PRE-OPERATING COSTS

     System pre-operating costs in the amount of $122,056 at December 31, 1996
     represent the cost of engineering fees, permits, and studies to develop the
     Lancaster, Pennsylvania digital wireless communication system. These costs
     will be depreciated over the estimated useful life of the system once the
     system becomes operational.

 6.  LINE OF CREDIT - THE D AND E GROUP

     Line of credit, in the amount of $1,559,040 at December 31, 1996 to The D
     and E Group (a related party) is payable within 270 days of demand and
     bears interest at The Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 2% (a total of
     10.25 percent at December 31, 1996). The agreement permits the Company to
     borrow up to $14,000,000. The proceeds of the loan may only be used for the
     acquisition of the Lancaster PCS license and, subject to The D and E Group
     approval, for the design, construction and operation of the Lancaster PCS
     system.

     The weighted-average interest rate under this agreement was 10.25% in 1996.


 7.  LONG-TERM DEBT

     Long-term debt at December 31, 1996 consisted of the following:

                                                                       Amount
                                                                    -----------
     Note payable to Federal Communications Commission
     requires quarterly payments of interest only
     through September 30, 2002; commencing December
     31, 2002, payments of principal and interest of
     $857,628 are due through June 30, 2006.
     Effective March 31, 1997, the FCC suspended
     interest payments until further notice. (See
     note 12)                                                       $11,878,574
                                                                    ===========

     The Company incurred interest costs of $298,573 during the year ended
     December 31, 1996 and paid interest of $239,199.

     There are no scheduled maturities of long-term debt within the next five
     years.


8.   EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

     Extraordinary item of $104,000 of income in 1996 arose from the forgiveness
     of an advance to the Company by a corporation controlled by a
     director/shareholder of the Company. The transaction is considered to be
     both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence, thus meeting the
     criteria for recognition as an extraordinary item.

 9.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The line of credit - The D and E Group constitutes a related party note
     since The D and E Group owned 9.17% of the Company. The D and E Group is
     80% owned by D & E Communications, Inc., which acquired the Company through
     merger in March 1997 (see note 12).


10.  DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

     The Company provides deferred income taxes for temporary differences
     between amounts reported for financial reporting and income tax purposes.
     As of December 31, 1996, there were no deferred tax liabilities. Deferred
     tax assets consist of the following:

                                                               Amount
                                                            -----------
           Tax benefit of net operating
            loss carryforwards - Federal                    $    32,411
           Less valuation allowance                                   0
                                                            -----------

                                                            $    32,411
                                                            ===========

     As a result of the merger agreement with D & E Communications, Inc. in 1997
     (see note 12),the tax benefits of the loss carryforwards are expected to be
     realized. The net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset
     future federal taxable income through the year 2011.

     The Company paid no income taxes in 1996.


11.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Pursuant to agreements between the Company and its shareholders, the
     Company is required to offer to each Series A Convertible Preferred
     shareholder the right of first refusal, subject to certain restrictions, to
     purchase new securities to be issued by the Company. The Company also
     agreed to reserve sufficient shares of unissued Class II common stock to
     enable the Series A Convertible Preferred Shareholders to exercise their
     conversion rights. In addition, the Series A shareholders have the right of
     first refusal to purchase any Class I common stock shares offered for sale
     by any current Class I shareholders.

11.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Cont'd)

     The Company has entered into a participation agreement with Red Rose
     Communications, Inc. and The D and E Group (a related party - see note 9)
     whereby Red Rose Communications, Inc. has the right of first offer, and the
     right to match any offer, should the Company decide to sell the Lancaster,
     Pennsylvania PCS license.

     Following the approval of the Plan of Merger with D & E Communications,
     Inc. on February 20, 1997 (see note 12), the Series A Convertible Preferred
     Stock has been effectively retired, and the above agreements have no
     further impact.

     The Company has entered into a contract to purchase engineering services in
     connection with locating, acquiring and testing antenna sites for the
     Lancaster PCS system. The contract calls for total fees not to exceed
     approximately $280,000. Of this amount, $129,846 has been paid or is
     recorded as accounts payable at December 31, 1996.


12.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On February 20, 1997, the shareholders consented to grant bonus options to
     purchase 2,000,000 shares of Class II common stock at the exercise price of
     $.0132 per share to 2 shareholders. These options were exercised in March,
     1997.

     On February 20, 1997, the shareholders consented to grant reserved share
     options to purchase 475,000 shares of Class II common stock at the exercise
     price of $.0132 per share to 5 shareholders. These options were exercised

     On February 20, 1997, the shareholders of the Company approved a Plan of
     Merger pursuant to which the Company was merged with and into D & E
     Communications, Inc. (D & E). The merger agreement calls for the equivalent
     of $8,000,000 in D & E Communications, Inc. stock, less the Company's costs
     and expenses of the merger plus one-half of D & E's costs and expenses, to
     be exchanged for all of the issued and outstanding Class I Common Stock,
     Class II Common Stock, and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the
     Company. On March 21, 1997 the merger was completed, pursuant to which a
     total of 340,585 shares of D & E stock were issued in the exchange, which
     is intended to be qualified as a tax-free reorganization under Internal
     Revenue Code Section 368.

     On March 31, 1997, The Federal Communication Commission suspended interest
     payments on its loan until further notice. The interest will still accrue
     at the original interest rate.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements

         The following pro forma financial information is given with respect to
the merger of PCS One with and into D & E. The pro forma balance sheet is
presented as of December 31, 1996, which is the most recent period for which a
consolidated balance sheet of D & E is required. The pro forma condensed
statements of income are presented as of December 31, 1996. The pro forma
presentation shows (i) the combined balance sheet as if the merger had occurred
prior to December 31, 1996, and (ii) the combined income statements of D & E as
if the merger had occurred previous to the period indicated.

A Adjustment to record acquisition costs associated with the PCS license.

B Adjustment to write-off the organization costs of PCS One.

C Adjustment to reflect the elimination of D & E's note receivable from PCS One
and the corresponding debt recorded at PCS One.

D Adjustment to record accrued merger costs and par value at $0.16 per share of
Company Common Stock to be issued and outstanding. The number of shares of
Common Stock was calculated using the $8,000,000 purchase price, less agreed
upon costs of $165,000, divided by $23.00. The agreement states that the
$8,000,000 less costs be divided by the weighted average closing price of the
D & E Common Shares were traded immediately preceding the Closing Date, but no
less than $23.00, and no more than $27.00. The adjustment is summarized below:

Common Stock:
         Purchase price                                            $8,000,000
