TRANSWESTERN HOLDINGS L.P.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS ARE IN THOUSANDS)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACTIVITIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10
of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. For further information, refer
to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
Holdings' Form 10-K (SEC File No. 333-42117), for the fiscal year ended April
30, 1998.
In November 1997, TransWestern Publishing Company L.P. (the "Partnership")
changed its name to TransWestern Holdings L.P. ("Holdings") and formed and
contributed substantially all of its assets to TransWestern Publishing Company
LLC ("TransWestern" or the "Company"). TransWestern assumed or guaranteed all of
the liabilities of the Partnership. As a result, Holdings' only assets consist
of TransWestern's Member Units (as defined) and all of Capital's (as defined)
capital stock. All of the operations that were previously conducted by the
Partnership are now being conducted by TransWestern. Holdings has formed TWP
Capital Corp. ("Capital") as a wholly-owned subsidiary and TransWestern has
formed TWP Capital Corp. II ("Capital II") as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Neither
Capital nor Capital II has any significant assets or operations. In October
1997, the Partnership completed a $312 million recapitalization transaction (the
"Recapitalization").
The membership interests of TransWestern consist of a single class of
authorized common units (the "Member Units"). Holdings is the sole member of
TransWestern and accordingly, holds all 1,000 of the issued and outstanding
Member Units.
The general partner of Holding's is TransWestern Communications Company,
Inc. ("TCC"), which held approximately 1.0% of Holdings outstanding partnership
units in the period from formation of the Partnership (1993) through September
1997. Upon the consummation of the Recapitalization (as defined) in October
1997, TCC held approximately 1.7% of Holding's outstanding partnership units.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect
to the formation of the Company and the contribution of assets and liabilities
by Holdings as if these events had occurred on the date of the Partnership's
formation. The accompanying financial statements present the historical
financial position and results of operations of TransWestern.
TransWestern publishes and distributes local yellow page directories in
thirteen states.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition, Deferred Directory Costs and Customer Deposits
Revenues from the sale of advertising placed in each directory are
recognized upon the distribution of directories in their individual market
areas. Advance payments received for directory advertising are shown as customer
deposits in the accompanying balance sheets. Expenditures directly related to
sales, production, printing and distribution of directories are capitalized as
deferred directory costs and matched against related revenues upon directory
distribution.
<PAGE> 7
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Concentration of Credit Risk
Credit is extended based upon customer collection history and generally a
deposit is required. The Company is not subject to a concentration of credit
risk due to the geographic and economic diversity of its customer base, however
credit losses have represented a cost of doing business due to the nature of the
customer base (predominantly small businesses) and the use of extended credit
terms.
A provision for doubtful accounts based on historical experience is
recorded at the time revenue is recognized for individual directories. Actual
write-offs are taken against the allowance when management determines that an
account is uncollectible. In general, management makes this determination when
an account has declared bankruptcy, has gone out of business or fails to renew
advertising for the following year's directory.

4. DIRECTORY ACQUISITION
On July 16, 1998, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common stock
of Target Directories of Michigan ("Target") for cash of approximately $5.4
million. In connection with the acquisition, the Company also assumed certain
liabilities of Target totaling approximately $1.6 million. The acquisition has
been accounted for as a purchase and accordingly the purchase price has been
allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their
respective fair values at the date of acquisition, as follows (in thousands):

4. DIRECTORY ACQUISITION (CONTINUED)
Assuming that the acquisition of Target had occurred on the first day of the

30, 1997, respectively, the unaudited pro forma results of operations would be
as follows:
