CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Consolidated net revenues for the first three months ended March 31, 1997
reached US$67.2 million, versus US$66.3 million in the fourth quarter and
US$33 million in the first quarter of 1996. The Company has more than doubled
its revenues every year for the last three years. Revenues consist primarily
of subscription, installation, advertising, indirect programming and other
revenues, excluding taxes.
Subscription revenue contributed to 66% of net revenues, and amounted to
US$44.3 million in the first quarter of 1997, up 103% from US$21.8 million in
the first quarter of 1996 and US$37.7 in the fourth quarter of 1996. It can
be broken down by distribution technology as follows: MMDS (64%), cable
(11%), C-band (13%) and Ku-band (12%). Revenue increased as a result of an
expanded subscriber base and a higher average monthly fee.

Installation revenue contributed to 26% of net revenues, reaching US$17.5
million in 1Q97, versus US$22.3 million in 4Q96. This decrease is attributed
to a reduction in the hook-up fee for KU-Band and C-Band.
Advertising revenue amounted to US$1.8 million in the first quarter of 1997,
representing a 92% increase, versus US$1 million in the first quarter of 1996.

<PAGE>
Indirect programming revenue in the first quarter of 1997 reached US$5.1
million, an increase of 308% versus US$1.3 million in the first quarter of
the previous year. This revenue consists of payments made to the Company for
the sale of its programming to affiliated companies and independent operators.
Direct operating expenses amounted to US$36.4 million for the first three
months of 1997 versus US$34.6 million in the previous quarter, or a rise of 5%.
Direct operating expenses as a percentage of revenue dropped from 61% in the
first quarter of 1996 to 54% in the first quarter of 1997.
Selling, general and administrative expenses reached US$25.9 million,
representing 39% of net revenue versus US$29.9 million in the fourth quarter of
1996. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased from 45% to 39% as a result of dilution of fixed expenses.
As a result, EBITDA reached US$4.9 million, an increase of 164% versus the
US$1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 1996.
Adjusted EBITDA reached US$9.2 million, an increase of 50% versus US$ 6.2
million adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 1996. The positive EBITDA of
US$9.2 million for the first quarter of 1997 represented a turnaround versus
the loss of US$3 million during the first quarter of 1996. Adjusted EBITDA
includes the deferment of KU band revenue of US$4.3 million for first quarter
of 1997.
Depreciation and amortization for the first quarter of 1997 was US$10.4
million as compared with US$9.7 million in the previous quarter, and US$5.1
million in the first quarter of 1996. This includes depreciation of systems,
equipment, installation materials, installation personnel and amortization of
organizational costs and concessions.
Operating loss during the first quarter of 1997 was US$5.5 million, 27% less
than the loss of US$7.6 million reported in the fourth quarter of 1996. The
operating loss for the quarter was also 32% less than the loss of US$8.1 million
in the first quarter of 1996.
Interest income reached US$5.0 million, versus US$2.3 million in the
previous quarter, or an increase of 118%. Interest expenses were US$11.3
million, versus US$7.5 million in the fourth quarter of 1996, representing a 50%
increase.
Equity in losses (income) of affiliates amounted to a loss of US$2.5 million
in the first quarter of 1997 versus a loss of US$1.9 million in the previous
quarter. That loss resulted from ESPN Brasil (US$1.9 million), TV Filme
(US$449,000), and Canbras (US$205,000), and was offset by income from HBO
(US$38,000).
3
<PAGE>
Other non-operating expenses amounted to US$763,000 versus income of US$3.3
million in the fourth quarter of 1996. The unusually high income in the fourth
quarter was due to a capital gain from TV Filme's equity offering issued in
1996.
Minority interest amounted to US$191,000, representing the minority
shareholder's portion of the US$1 million aggregate losses of TVA Sul.
As a result, net loss for the first three months ended March 31, 1997 was
US$15.5 million versus a net loss of US$11.2 million reported in the fourth
quarter of 1996 and US$12.2 million reported in the first quarter of 1996.
Capital expenditures (cash basis) for the first quarter of 1997 amounted to
US$38.8 million, a 28% decrease from US$54 million in the previous quarter.
Funds were directed mainly to: purchase decoders for all distribution systems;
implement internal networks for MMDS and cable; and cable network build-out,
mainly in Sao Paulo and Curitiba.
SUBSCRIBER PERFORMANCE
Total subscriber base for the first quarter of 1997 totaled 1,093,677, a 9%
growth versus the previous quarter, and an increase of 61% versus the first
quarter of 1996.

higher maturity systems of cable and DBS. The Company emphasized the strategic
development of cable service, reaching 1.369 kilometers of cable.

March 31, 1997, compared with 564,499 subscribers during the previous quarter,

<PAGE>
TVA Sao Paulo: Net revenues amounted to US$17.7 million in the first quarter
of 1997, down 7% compared with US$19 million in the previous quarter. This
decrease was due to a fewer number of installations and a reduction in the
average hook-up fee . At March 31, 1997, the subscriber base totaled 147,239,
comprising both MMDS and cable systems, a 7% growth over the same period of
1996 and a minor decrease by less than 1% versus the fourth quarter of 1996
which had a subscriber base of 148,149. At the end of the first quarter of
1997, the cable network extended approximately 245 Km, connecting
approximately 67,849 homes.
TVA Rio: Net revenues amounted to US$10.4 million, an increase of 11% versus
the previous quarter and 63% higher than US$6.4 million during the first
quarter of 1996. At the end of the first quarter of 1997, the subscriber base
reached 84,573, a 6% growth over the previous quarter's subscriber base of
79,928. This solid performance was achieved despite the growing cable
competition in this region.
TVA Sul: Net revenues amounted to US$5.7 million, 31% higher than US$4.3
million in the previous quarter and 191% higher than the first quarter of
1996. As of March 31, 1997, subscriber base was 55,453, a 15% growth over the
previous quarter. The MMDS system in Curitiba, increased 13% to 26,620
subscribers.
C Band: Net revenues amounted to US$8.8 million, a 12% decline versus US$10
million in the previous quarter primarily as a result of reduction in the
average hook-up fee. The subscriber base increased by 18% from 49,858 to
58,821 subscribers between the fourth quarter of 1996 and the first quarter
of 1997. TVA is the only pay television operator to deliver a digital C-band

programming "SAP" channels) to the whole country. By comparison, TVA's only
significant C-band competitor offers six analog channels.
DirecTV: Net revenues amounted to US$15.7 million in the first quarter of
1997, representing an increase of 18% versus the US$13.3 million in the
previous quarter. The subscriber base increased by 108% compared with the
previous quarter, amounting to 48,407 subscribers. TVA, through Galaxy
Brasil, launched Brazil's first Ku-band service in July 1996 in a limited
regional roll-out in the Sao Paulo area. The company became fully operational
in November 1996 when it began a nationwide publicity campaign supported by a
network of trained installers.
