Item 1.    Business.
                                  The Company
    
     C-TEC Corporation was organized in 1979.  It is incorporated under the 
laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and has its principal office in 
Princeton, New Jersey. C-TEC is a holding company with wholly-owned 
subsidiaries, which are engaged in various aspects of the communications 
industry and which are organized into four principal groups - Telephone, Cable 
Television, Communications Services, and Long Distance.  Effective in 1994, 
the Company discontinued its Mobile Services business segment.  Through its 
wholly-owned subsidiaries, C-TEC also has ownership interests of 80% and 
43.63% in two cable television subsidiaries; and 53.48% in an alternative 
access telephone service provider.      

                                  Operations
Telephone 

     The Telephone Group consists of a Pennsylvania public utility providing 
local telephone service to a 19 county, 5,067 square mile service territory in 
Pennsylvania.  As of December 31, 1994, the Telephone Group provided service 
to approximately 219,000 main access lines.  Of these 171,000 are residential 
and 48,000 primarily relate to business.  This Group's operating territory is 
rural, containing only 38.8 access lines per square mile as compared to a 
Pennsylvania average of 151.0 lines per square mile.  The Group's 79 central 
offices serve an average of 2,772 lines and 65 square miles.

     In addition to providing local telephone service, this Group provides 
network access and long distance services to interexchange carriers.  This 
Group also has other revenues which are considered non-regulated and primarily 
relate to telecommunications equipment sales and services and 
billing/collection services for interexchange long distance carriers.

     During 1994, with the introduction of epix, Internet Access Services, 
the Telephone Group has become a competitive provider of information services.  
In addition to its own customers, the Group is currently marketing epix to 
other telephone companies as a turnkey package.  Other new product offerings, 
such as distance learning systems, which were a key to getting the Telephone 
Group's video conferencing business off the ground, have resulted in additional 
sales.  This coupled with a select dealership with the largest manufacturer of 
video conferencing systems and the ability to provide equipment and video 
bridging services, provides this Group with a significant competitive 
advantage.

     The Telephone Group expects these type of services, supported by the 
existing 100% digital network, to offer customers services not readily found 
within the operating territory.  Most importantly, this group can provide new
