NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The balances as of August 31, 1996 were derived from
audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operation results for the three-month and
nine-month periods ended May 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending August 31, 1997. For
further information, refer to the Company's financial statements for the year
ended August 31, 1996 included in its Form 10-KSB/A.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wavetech, Inc.
(the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Interpretel, Inc., Interpretel
(Canada) Inc., International Environment Services Corporation (an inactive
corporation), and Telplex International Communications, Inc. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
NOTE 2 - NOTES PAYABLE
During the quarter ended May 31, 1997 the Company borrowed $200,000 through a
short-term, 14% interest note. The note included warrants to purchase 30,000
shares of Wavetech, Inc.'s common stock at $0.91 per share. The note accrued
interest through May 22, 1997, at which time all principal and accrued interest
were paid.
NOTE 3 - PER SHARE DATA
Per share data is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding
throughout the periods. There is no difference between primary and fully
dilutive earnings per share, because the assumed exercise of stock options
outstanding would not have a dilutive effect on the computation.
NOTE 4 - RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Contained in the Company's financial statements for the quarter and the nine
months ended May 31, 1997, was the recognition of revenue related to the receipt
of payment of a licensing fee. The financial statements have been corrected to
recognize revenue from the licensing fee over the seven-year term of the
licensing agreement. Revenue previously recognized for the licensing fee was
$200,000. Revenue recognized for the licensing fee in the restated financial
statements is $35,714 for the quarter and the nine months ended May 31, 1997.
The correction resulted in a decrease in revenue recognized in the amount of
$164,286, for the quarter and the nine months ended May 31,1997. The correction
resulted in an increase in the net loss recognized in the amount of $164,286 for
the quarter and the nine months ended May 31, 1997. The correction resulted in a
change in the net loss per common share from $(0.02) and $(0.08) per common
share in the previously issued financial statements to $(0.03) and $(0.10) per
common share in the restated financial statements for the quarter and the nine
months, respectively.

2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
OPERATIONS OVERVIEW
The Company specializes in creating interactive communication systems through
the application of "intelligent" call processing technologies and proprietary
software to reflect or target the needs of an identified audience. These systems
are often used as privatized networks for organizations and their members,
companies and their suppliers and/or customers and special purpose groups.
During 1995 and 1996 the Company has remained focused on the development of the
software infrastructure for its call processing and data management systems.
Beta sites and limited operations commenced in late 1995. During 1996, the
Company signed a licensing agreement with Switch Telecommunications Pty Limited
in Australia. Switch launched commercial operations of the Interpretel System in
Australia in December, 1996. Early 1997 saw the completion of the infrastructure
development. Customized applications were also completed for various companies
in Canada and the United States. Marketing strategies are being revised to
properly launch these initiatives.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1997 COMPARED TO
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1996
REVENUES. Revenues increased to $110,700 for the three months ended May 31, 1997
from $854 for the three months ended May 31, 1996. $57,802 was revenue for the
resale of international long distance minutes. $15,660 in revenue was for long
distance and voice and fax mail service. The Company received $200,000 per the
terms of the licensing agreement with Switch. A total of $500,000 for a
seven-year license is to be paid over a period of three years. The $35,714
represents the revenue recognized pursuant to this licensing agreement with
Switch.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales increased to $84,060 for the three months ended May
31, 1997 from $33,993 for the three months ended May 31, 1996. $48,915 of the
increase was due to the costs associated with the resale of international
minutes.
DEVELOPMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Expenses decreased to $445,011 for the
three months ended May 31, 1997 from $466,443 for the three months ended May 31,
1996. The major expenses during the three months ended May 31, 1997 included
payroll and related expenses of $144,186. Investor relations expenses were
$54,918 primarily for the annual meeting expenses and fees paid to an investor
firm. Rent expenses were $24,867 and platform services were $31,879. As compared
to the three months ended May 31, 1996, some expenses during the three months
ended May 31, 1997 decreased, such as fees paid to NASDAQ to issue stock, and
other expenses increased, such as investor relations, due to costs associated
with the annual meeting and utilizing services of an investor relations firm.

<PAGE>
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES. Depreciation and amortization expenses
increased to $48,740 for the three months ended May 31, 1997 from $21,338 for
the three months ended May 31, 1996. The increase in depreciation was due to an
acquisition of computer equipment.
INTEREST EXPENSES. Interest expenses increased to $11,109 for the three months
ended May 31, 1997 from $272 for the three months ended May 31,1996. The
increase in interest expense was from an increase in notes payable and interest
expense related to capital leases.
NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1997 COMPARED TO
NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1996
REVENUES. Total revenues increased to $633,340 for the nine months ended May 31,
1997 from $2,837 for the nine months ended May 31, 1996. $474,160 was revenue
from the sale of the Interpretel System to Switch. $92,838 was revenue from the
resale of international minutes. $35,714 was revenue recognized pursuant to the
licensing agreement with Switch. $28,000 was an increase in revenue for long
distance, voice and fax mail services, and customized application generation
charges.
COST OF SALES. Total cost of sales increased to $599,474 for the nine months
ended May 31, 1997 from $141,775 for the nine months ended May 31, 1996. The
majority of the increase was from costs for the hardware and third party
software for the sale of the Interpretel System to Switch, resulting in an
increase of $378,009. Another increase of $77,095 was for costs associated with
the resale of international minutes.
DEVELOPMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Expenses increased to $1,252,070 for
the nine months ended May 31, 1997 from $995,813 for the nine months ended May
31, 1996. Legal and other professional fees accounted for $75,846 of the
increase. Investor relations costs represented new expenses for the Company
during the nine months ended May 31, 1997. The Company's first annual meeting
was held during this period increasing costs by $33,640. Other investor
relations expenses included fees to an outside investor relations firm and
attending a major conference for an increase of $72,972. Platform services and
fees increased by $46,128. Overhead costs associated with the asset purchase of
Telplex, Inc. increased costs by $31,376. Rent escalation accounted for an
increase of $25,085. Enhancements to the Company's interactive voice response
system increased costs by $10,097. Expenses for licenses and fees decreased by
$44,848 during the nine months ended May 31, 1997 due to NASDAQ fees for
issuance of stock during the nine months ended May 31, 1996.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES. Depreciation and amortization expenses
increased to $146,915 for the nine months ended May 31, 1997 from $64,013 for
the nine months ended May 31, 1996. The increase in depreciation was due to an
acquisition of computer equipment.
INTEREST EXPENSES. Interest expenses increased to $16,947 for the nine months
ended May 31, 1997 from $1,104 for the nine months ended May 31,1996. The
9
<PAGE>
increase in interest expense was from an increase in notes payable and interest
expense related to capital leases.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At May 31, 1997 the Company had $20,909 in cash. In order to address its
short-term working capital needs, the Company borrowed $32,000 from certain
Board Members at the end of May.
The Company's liquidity position is strained. Because the Company has not
achieved positive cash flow from its operating activities, the Company's ability
to continue operations is dependent upon its ability to raise additional equity
and/or debt financing or to negotiate acquisitions or mergers with other
entities. The Company is currently negotiating agreements for financing although
it does not presently have any agreements, binding or non-binding, with respect
to any financing. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
consummate the transaction and/or raise the additional financing necessary to
continue its operations.
INFLATION
Although the Company's operations are influenced by general economic trends and
technology advances in the telecommunications industry, the Company does not
believe that inflation has a material effect on its operations.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH YEAR 2000
Many computer programs were designed to recognize calendar years by their last
two digits. As a result, such programs are expected to misidentify dates
commencing in calendar year 2000. This problem is referred to as the "Year 2000
Issue." These errors are likely to lead to computer errors, miscalculations,
delays and business interruptions if not properly corrected in a timely manner.
The Company's main billing program was originally written to accept dates from
the year 2000 and beyond. However, the Company plans on having an independent
consultant review the billing system for the purpose of thoroughly testing its
operation for readiness associated with the Year 2000 Issue. Estimated costs for
the consultant and associated testing activities is $700. The Company
anticipates that such assessment activities will be completed by March 31, 1999.
The Company has completed an assessment of all other internal systems and has
determined that no modifications to such systems are necessary. Total costs
incurred to date by the Company in connection with its assessment of its
internal vulnerability to the Year 2000 Issue equal approximately $5,000.
The Company has also contacted its major supplier, which handles the call
processing software and supports platform services. The Company's call
processing hardware and operating systems are not currently able to address the
Year 2000 Issue. Modifications to this system have begun and the host server's
operating system is expected to be compliant no later than the end of the first
quarter of calendar year 1999. The Company currently estimates that its costs to
be incurred with such modification will be approximately $50,000. The Company
10
<PAGE>
does not have material relationships with any other third partners upon which
its business and operations are substantially dependent. However, it intends to
seek assurances from any third parties with which it enters into agreements in
the future that the systems are compliant with the Year 2000 Issue.
Presently, the Company does not have a contingency plan in the event it is
unable to correct any vulnerability to the Year 2000 Issue, but is reviewing
alternatives, such as using a service bureau to temporarily process calls and
run applications, should any problems arise in system operations.
The Company believes there exist multiple alternative suppliers for these
services. However, if it is unable to obtain such services and at terms
acceptable to it, it may be forced to interrupt or suspend its services. In
addition, even if available, the Company may be required to incur substantially
higher costs in order to provide such services. The Company has adequate
resources to complete its Year 2000 assessment and any necessary modifications.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
The Company currently lacks adequate funds to finance its ongoing working
capital needs. As a result of such circumstances, during May of 1997, two of the
Company's Directors made short-term loans to the Company in an aggregate amount
of $32,000. In addition, the Company has entered into agreements with its
employees to compensate such persons' salaries with a number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock with a fair market value on the last day of a regular pay
period equal to each respective employee's salary plus a 10% premium as
consideration for entering into such agreements. All of the shares will be
issued as Deferred Shares pursuant to the Company's 1997 Stock Incentive Plan.
The Company intends to continue such arrangements, subject to the agreement of
each employee, until it has secured additional working capital financing.
The Company is currently seeking to secure adequate sources of funds to finance
its immediate and long-term working capital needs. Such sources may include a
private placement of equity by the Company, commercial financing, or a strategic
alliance or other business combination. The Company does not currently have any
agreements, binding or non-binding, with respect to any such above stated
arrangements. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to secure adequate sources of funds and its inability to do so would result in a
material adverse affect upon the Company's business and results of operations.
In addition, if the Company succeeds in acquiring additional financing, such
efforts may result in additional dilution to the Company's stockholders; impose
restrictions upon the Company's ability to incur additional debt, pay future
dividends, enter into future business combinations or other restrictions upon
the Company to act in a manner which its Board of Directors may deem advisable;
or result in a change in control of the Company.
ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K
