Notes to Consolidated  Financial  Statements June 30, 1996 (In thousands  except
for per share data) (Unaudited)


     1.  Basis  of  Presentation:   -------------------------  The  consolidated
financial  statements  included herein have been prepared by Shared Technologies
Fairchild  Inc.  (the  Company)  pursuant  to the rules and  regulations  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all adjustments,  consisting only
of normal  recurring  adjustments,  which are,  in the  opinion  of  management,
necessary  to present a fair  statement  of the  results  for  interim  periods.
Certain information and footnote  disclosures have been omitted pursuant to such
rules and  regulations,  although the Company  believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that
these  consolidated  financial  statements  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the
consolidated  financial  statements  and  the  notes  thereto  included  in  the
Company's  December 31, 1995 report on Form 10-K. Certain  reclassifications  to
prior  year  financial  statements  were  made in order to  conform  to the 1996
presentation.

2. Investment in Unconsolidated Subsidiary

     The  Company's   investment  in  its  Unconsolidated   subsidiary,   Shared
Technologies  Cellular,  Inc.  (STC),  is accounted for under the equity method.
Prior to  December  1995,  the  majority  owned  subsidiary  was  included  on a
consolidated  basis.  During December 1995, STC issued  approximately  $3,000 in
voting  preferred  stock to third  parties.  Although  the  Company's  ownership
percentage of  approximately  58% did not change,  the voting rights assigned to
the preferred stock reduced the Company's  voting interest in STC,  resulting in
the Company's loss of voting control of STC. Accordingly, STC has been accounted
for on the equity method for 1996. At June 30, 1996 the Company had an ownership
interest of approximately 40% in STC.  Summarized balance sheet and statement of
operations  information  for STC as of, and for the three and six months  ended,
June 30, 1996 is as follows:

                    Summarized Balance Sheet

     The Company has recently  reached an agreement with STC to purchase  $2,500
in STC preferred stock.  This investment will be financed through the conversion
of existing advances owed by STC to the Company in the amount of $1,200 and cash
of $1,300.

3. Acquisitions:

     On June 30, 1995,  the Company  purchased  all of the  outstanding  capital
stock   of   Office   Telephone    Management("OTM").    OTM   provides   shared
telecommunication  services  primarily to businesses located in executive office
suites.  The purchase  price was $2,135 of which $1,335 was paid in cash and the
balance  through the  issuance of an $800 note,  (discounted  at 8.59%)  payable
through June 30, 2005.  The excess of cost over fair value of the net assets was
recorded as goodwill.

     On March 13,  1996,  the  Company's  stockholders  approved and the Company
consummated  its merger  with  Fairchild  Industries,  Inc.("FII"),  following a
reorganization  transferring  all  non-communication  assets to its parent,  RHI
Holding,  Inc.  ("RHI").  The Company  changed  its name to Shared  Technologies
Fairchild  Inc.("STFI").  Pursuant to the merger agreement,  STFI issued to RHI,
6,000 shares of common stock,  250 shares of convertible  preferred stock with a
$25,000  liquidation  preference and 20 shares of special preferred stock with a
$20,000 initial  liquidation  preference.  In addition the Company raised in the
capital  market  approximately  $111,000 after  offering  expenses,  through the
issuance  of 12 1/4%  Senior  Subordinated  Notes  Due  2006  and  approximately
$125,000  (of an  available  $145,000)  in  loans  from a credit  facility  with
financial  institutions.  The funds were used  primarily  for the  retirement of
certain  liabilities  assumed from FII in  connection  with the merger,  and the
retirement of the Company's  existing  credit  facility.  In connection with the
merger,  the  Company  entered  into two  year  employment  agreements  with key
employees  for annual  compensation  aggregating  $1,250,  and  adopted the 1996
Equity Incentive Plan. The merger was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting.  The total  purchase  consideration  of  approximately  $78,067  was
allocated  to the net  tangible  and  intangible  assets of FII based upon their
respective  fair market values.  The allocation of the aggregate  purchase price
included in the following pro forma  financial  statements is  preliminary,  and
does not reflect the immediate  retirement of FII long-term  debt,  FII Series A
Preferred Stock, and FII Series C Preferred Stock. Allocation of purchase price:

4. Contingencies:


     In December 1995, a suit was filed against the Company alleging a breach of
a letter  agreement  and seeking an amount in excess of $2,250 for a  commission
allegedly  owed in  connection  with the merger  with FII (Note 3). The  Company
denies that the claimant at any time was engaged in connection  with the merger.
The Company  filed an answer in January  1996,  denying that any  commission  is
owed. This litigation is in the discovery process. While any litigation contains
an  element of  uncertainty,  management  is of the  opinion  that the  ultimate
resolution of this matter should not have a material adverse effect upon results
of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

     The  Company's  sales and use tax  returns  in  certain  jurisdictions  are
currently under  examination.  Management  believes these  examinations will not
result in a material change from liabilities provided.


     In addition to the above  matters,  the Company is a party to various legal
actions,  the outcome of which,  in the opinion of  management,  will not have a
material  adverse  effect on results  of  operations,  cash  flows or  financial
position of the Company.


5. Income Taxes:

     The Company and its  subsidiaries  file a  consolidated  federal income tax
return but generally file separate state income tax returns. As of June 30, 1996
the  Company  recorded  a  deferred  tax  asset of  $7,508  and a  corresponding
valuation allowances of $ 6,948. SFAS No. 109 requires that the Company record a
valuation allowance when it is "more likely than not that some portion or all of
the deferred tax asset will not be realized".  The ultimate  realization of this
deferred tax asset depends on the ability to generate  sufficient taxable income
in the future.  While management believes that the total deferred tax asset will
be fully  realized  by future  operating  results,  together  with tax  planning
opportunities,  the uncertainty relating to the future tax effects of the merger
and a desire  to be  conservative  make it  appropriate  to  record a  valuation
allowance.

     At June 30, 1996,  the Company's NOL  carryforward  for federal  income tax
purposes  was  approximately  $57,000,  expiring  between  2001 and 2007.  NOL's
available for state income tax purposes are less than those for federal purposes
and  generally  expire  earlier.  Limitations  apply to the use of NOL's  due to
changes in Company ownership which occured in the merger with FII.


6. Extraordinary Item:

     At June 30,  1996,  the  Company  recorded  an  extraordinary  loss of $310
relating  to the  early  retirement  of a  $5,000  credit  facility.  The  early
retirement took place as a result of  requirements in the merger  agreement with
FII (Note 3).

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
Financial Condition
- -------------------

Results of Operations:
- -----------------------
Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 compared to June 30, 1995

     Revenues STFI's revenues rose to a record $63.8 million in 1996 an increase
of 130.3% over 1995 revenues of $27.7 million.  This increase occurred mainly as
a result of the March 13, 1996 merger with Fairchild  Industries  Inc.  ("FII").
Shared  Telecommunications  Service ("STS")  revenue  increased $24.8 million or
145.0%  and  Telecommunications  Systems  ("Systems")  revenue  increased  $16.6
million or 313.2%.

     Gross  margin  Gross  margin  increased  to 45.4% of revenues for 1996 from
39.0% for 1995,  an increase of 6.4%.  The change in gross  margin is mainly the
result of changes in sales mix. The following table sets forth the components of
the Company's overall gross margin ("GM") for the six months ended June 30, 1996
as a  factor  of  sales  percentage  and  gross  margin  percentage  per line of
business:

                                                                                Overall
Division                              Sales                  GM                   GM
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STS                                           65.7%                49.6%                 32.6%

Systems                                       34.3%                37.4%                 12.8%
                                              -----                -----                 -----

   Company Total                             100.0%                                      45.4%
                              ======================                     ======================

     As shown  above,  the 1996 gross  margin  was a mix of STS gross  margin of
49.6% and Systems gross margin of 37.4%.  In 1995 the Company's gross margin was
a  combination  of STS gross margin of 43.9%,  Systems gross margin of 20.8% and
Cellular Services ("STC") gross margin of 41.5%. Changes in gross margin for STS
and Systems year to year were mainly the result of the acquisition of FII.

     Selling,   general  and  administrative   expenses  Selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses ("SG&A") as a percentage of revenues decreased to 35.9%
for 1996 compared to 36.5% for 1995.  SG&A  improved  slightly due to the merger
with FII  which  resulted  in  certain  synergies.  This was  largely  offset by
increased goodwill amortization expense.

     Operating  income  Operating  income increased to $6.1 million in 1996 from
$0.7 million in 1995. The increase was mainly the result of the FII  acquisition
mentioned earlier.

     Interest  expense Interest expense net of interest income increased by $8.0
million for the six months  ended June 30,  1996 over the six months  ended June
30, 1995. This is attributable to the addition of approximately  $245 million in
new debt on March 13, 1996.

     Extraordinary  Item. In connection  with the acquisition of FII the Company
was required to repay all outstanding amounts on their existing credit facility.
This early repayment resulted in a loss of $0.3 million which was recorded as an
extraordinary item for the three months ended June 30, 1996.

     Net income As a result of the factors  listed above, a net loss for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 of $4.2  million was recorded  compared to net income
of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995.

Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 compared to June 30, 1995

     Revenues STFI's revenues rose to a record $45.6 million in 1996 an increase
of 206.0% over 1995  revenues of $14.9  million.  STS  revenue  increased  $20.0
million or 229.9% and Systems  revenue  increased  $14.0 million or 482.8%.  The
majority of the increase was  attributable to the March 13, 1996  acquisition of
FII.

     Gross  margin  Gross  margin  increased  to 46.5% of revenues for 1996 from
38.3% for 1995,  an increase of 8.2%.  The change in gross  margin is mainly the
result of changes in sales mix. The following table sets forth the components of
the  Company's  overall  gross margin ("GM") for the three months ended June 30,
1996 as a factor of sales  percentage  and gross margin  percentage  per line of
business:

                                                                                   Overall
Division                                               Sales           GM             GM
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STS                                                         62.9%         48.8%          30.7%

Systems                                                     37.1%         42.6%          15.8%
                                                            -----         -----          -----

   Company Total                                           100.0%                        46.5%
                                                   ===============              ===============

     As shown  above,  the 1996 gross  margin  was a mix of STS gross  margin of
48.8% and Systems gross margin of 42.6%.  In 1995 the Company's gross margin was
a  combination  of STS gross margin of 43.7%,  Systems gross margin of 19.5% and
STC gross margin of 39.4%.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  SG&A as a  percentage  of
revenues  decreased to 35.3% for 1996 compared to 36.2% for 1995.  SG&A improved
slightly due to the merger with FII which  resulted in certain  synergies.  This
was largely offset by increased goodwill amortization expense.

     Operating  income  Operating  income  increased to 5.1 million in 1996 from
$0.3 million in 1995. The increase was mainly the result of the FII  acquisition
mentioned earlier.

     Interest  expense Interest expense net of interest income increased by $6.8
million for the three  months  ended June 30, 1996 over the three  months  ended
June 30,  1995.  This is  attributable  to the  addition of  approximately  $245
million in new debt on March 13, 1996.


     Net  income As a result of the  factors  listed  above,  a net loss for the
three months  ended June 30, 1996 of $2.6  million was recorded  compared to net
income of $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  ------------------------------- Due to the
acquisition  of FII on March  13,  1996 and the  associated  borrowings  of $245
million,  the  Company's  liquidity  and capital  resources  were  significantly
changed.  At June 30, 1996 the Company had $380 million in assets,  $250 million
in various long term debt and capital lease  obligations  and $45 million in new
preferred  stock.  The balance  sheet at June 30,  1996 shows a working  capital
deficit of $20.4 million compared to a deficit of $1.5 million at June 30, 1995.
The Company has available for future  borrowings  approximately $13 million on a
credit  facility at June 30, 1996. Cash provided by operations was $12.1 million
for the six months  ended June 30,  1996  compared  to $0.8  million for the six
months ended June 30, 1995.

     The Company  invested  significant  capital  towards growth  internally and
through acquisition. $3.9 million was spent on equipment purchases, $0.5 million
on  subsidiaries,  and $3.8 million to consummate the merger with FII during the
six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Financing  activities  were focused  primarily on raising  capital to repay
$223,500 million in various debt and preferred stock obtained in the merger with
FII. The Company raised in the capital market  approximately  $115,000,  through
the  issuance of 12 1/4% Senior  Subordinated  Notes Due 2006 and  approximately
$130,000  (of an  available  $145,000)  in  loans  from a credit  facility  with
financial  institutions.  In addition  the Company paid $9.3 million in fees and
costs to obtain this capital.  $8.4 million was paid to an affiliate  related to
the merger with FII.

     Cash  requirements  for  1996  will  be  significant  due to the  new  debt
mentioned  earlier.  The  Company  anticipates  repaying  these  borrowings  and
providing cash for capital  expenditures with cash from operations.  The Company
does not  anticipate the need to utilize the available  credit  facility for the
remainder of 1996.
