                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              DECEMBER 31, 1996

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

   The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
   in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
   principles for interim  financial information and with the instructions
   to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 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 considered necessary for a
   fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three
   and nine months ended December 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative
   of the results that may be expected for the year ended March 31, 1997. 
   For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
   and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year
   ended March 31, 1996.

   The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
   of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material
   intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
   consolidation.

   The functional currency for the Company's foreign operations is the
   applicable local currency.  The translation of the applicable foreign
   currency into United States Dollars is computed for balance sheet
   accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet
   date and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted average
   exchange rate during the period.  The gains and losses resulting from
   such translation are included in stockholders' equity.

   Certain items included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for
   the nine months ended December 31, 1995 have been reclassified to
   conform to the current year's presentation.


NOTE 2 - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Net income (loss) per share and common equivalent share is computed
   using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each
   period.  Warrants and options outstanding to purchase common stock are
   included as common stock equivalents when dilutive.

                              DECEMBER 31, 1996

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

   During April 1995, an agreement between the Company and a corporate
   stockholder was finalized to resolve certain claims and potential
   claims between the two parties.  The claims arose out of negotiated
   transactions whereby sales of the Company's restricted stock had
   occurred at prices at or below the quoted market price.  Under the
   agreement, the corporate stockholder granted the Company an irrevocable
   proxy to vote all of the shares beneficially owned or controlled by the
   stockholder in favor of the director nominees proposed by the Board, to
   pay the Company the sum of $350,000 and not to compete with, nor
   solicit employees of, the Company for a period of three years.  The sum
   of $350,000 has been included in other income for the nine months ended
   December 31, 1995.


NOTE 4 - NOTE PAYABLE

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

   In June 1996, the Company borrowed $6,000,000 from a financial
   institution.  The note is payable in June 1997 and carries an interest
   rate equal to the lender's prime rate plus 2.5% which was 10.75% for
   the period ended December 31, 1996.  In  November 1996, the Company
   secured from the same financial institution a $4,000,000 multiple draw
   down term loan expiring June 1997.  Draws against the loan carry an
   interest rate equal to the lender's prime rate plus 2.5%.  At December
   31, 1996 no draws were made against the loan.  Any unused portion of
   the loan is subject to a commitment fee of .5%.  Interest on the notes
   and the commitment fee is payable quarterly. In connection with these
   notes, the lender was granted warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of
   the Company's common stock at a price of $14.88 per share and 66,667
   shares of the company's common stock at a price of $7.88 per share. 
   These warrants expire on December 31, 2001.  The value assigned to such
   warrants when granted in connection with the above note agreements is
   amortized over the term of the notes.  At December 31, 1996 these
   warrants have not been exercised.

   The notes are subject to certain financial covenants and are secured by
   the assets of the Company.

   Proceeds from the $6,000,000 loan were used to retire a $1,000,000 note
   payable which was outstanding at March 31, 1996.

NOTE 6 - COMMON STOCK

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

     On May 14, 1996 the Board of Directors declared a stock split,
     effected in the form of a ten percent (10%) stock dividend, subject
     to shareholders approving an increase in the number of authorized
     shares of common stock.  As a result of that approval on July 26,
     1996, shareholders received the dividend on August 5, 1996.

     On June 30, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a stock split,
     effected in the form of a ten percent (10%) stock dividend, which was
     distributed on August 25, 1995 to shareholders of record on August
     10, 1995.

     All references to common share and per share amounts in the
     accompanying financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to
     reflect the effect of these stock dividends.

ITEM 2 -  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Net revenue increased by 12% to $25,421,903 for the nine months ended
     December 31, 1996 as compared to $22,788,871 for the comparable
     period last year.  For the three months ended December 31, 1996, net
     revenue increased by 2% to $8,278,029 from $8,117,676 for the three
     months ended December 31, 1995.  The decrease in growth percentage
     from previous quarters is primarily attributable to overload on
     network capacity and the decision to defer several programs.  An
     upgrade to the entire network database system has now been completed
     and the Company believes it is once again in position to launch new
     programs and products.

     Cost of revenue for the nine months was $13,091,764, a decrease of 8%
     from the prior year's amount of $14,244,099.  For the three months
     ended December 31, 1996, cost of revenue was $4,297,676, a decrease
     of 11% from the prior year's amount of $4,821,847.  As a percentage
     of revenue, these costs decreased 12% from 63% for the nine months
     ended December 31, 1995 to 51% for the current period.  For the three
     months ended December 31, 1996, these costs were 52% compared to 59%
     for the prior period, a decrease of 7%.  These reductions in costs
     reflect general rate decreases and volume discounts negotiated with
     domestic and foreign telephone carriers based upon the continued
     increase in volume of traffic generated over their networks.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $3,157,351
     (58%) to $8,565,268, during the nine months ended December 31, 1996
     versus $5,407,917 for the comparable period last year.  For the three
     months ended December 31, 1996, selling, general and administrative
     expenses were $3,109,402, an increase of $1,143,752 (58%) over the
     $1,965,650 reported for the prior period.  This increase is primarily
     attributable to the addition of personnel and related employee costs
     necessary to manage the increasing business volume, provide
     additional marketing and promotion for the Company's calling card
     services, develop new business services (primarily Internet related), 
     and maintain quality customer support and assistance.  As a
     percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses
     increased from 24% to 34% for the nine months and from 24% to 38% for
     the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the same periods
     last year.  As additional revenue is realized from the Company's
     current marketing and new business development expenditures, selling,
     general and administration expenses as a percentage of revenue are
     expected to decrease.

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $57,332 to
     $1,211,217 as compared to $1,153,885 for the nine months and by
     $11,810 to $414,463 compared to $402,653 for the three months ended
     December 31, 1995.  This increase primarily relates to equipment
     placed in service during the current period.

     Interest expense increased by $420,490 to $552,704 for the nine
     months ended December 31, 1996, from $132,214 and for the three
     months ended December 31, 1996, interest expense increased $198,015
     to $244,589 versus $46,574 for the comparable period last year.  This
     increase primarily relates to interest payments on term notes payable
     including the $6 million borrowed from a financial institution during
     June 1996.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, cash and cash equivalents
     decreased $1,768,784 to $2,168,781.  The decrease in cash and cash
     equivalents consisted of the following components:  (i) net cash
     flows used in operating activities in the amount of $1,193,026, which
     resulted from a decrease in accrued expenses of $629,667, as well as
     a decrease in accounts payable of $472,883, further accompanied by an
     increase in accounts receivable of $669,451, which were primarily
     offset by net income for the quarter of $177,922 and depreciation and
     amortization of $414,463, (ii) net cash flows used in investing
     activities in the amount of $714,644, which are related primarily to
     $521,923 in acquisitions of new equipment for further expansion of
     the Company's global network, with an additional increase of other
     assets of $192,721, related to deposits on orders for equipment to
     further the expansion of the global network, (iii) cash flows
     provided by financing activities of $214,604 partially offset by
     principal payment on long term debt of $75,566, and (iv) the effect
     of exchange rate changes on cash which served to decrease cash and
     cash equivalents. 

     The $6,500,000 proceeds from notes issued during the quarter ended
     June 30, 1996 and included as cash flows provided by financing
     activities for the nine months ended December 31, 1996, were used to
     provide additional working capital, capital for the acquisition of
     additional property and equipment planned for the year, and to retire
     long-term debt of $1,500,000.

     The Company's future plans to fund its working capital needs consist
     of the following: (i) use of funding available through an additional
     $4,000,000 multiple draw down term loan agreement obtained from a
     financial institution, (ii) issuance of additional shares of common
     or preferred stock, (iii) the creation of a long term debt facility,
     and (iv) cash flow generated from operations.  There can be no
     assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise
     such additional capital.
