Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
         ------------------------------------

TNC Acquisition
- ---------------

On  June   20,   1997,   the   Company   acquired   substantially   all  of  the
telecommunications assets and operations of Telenational  Communications Limited
Partnership  ("TNC")  pursuant to that certain Asset  Purchase  Agreement  dated
April 23, 1997 (as amended by Amendment  No. 1 to the Asset  Purchase  Agreement
dated June 20, 1997).

The assets and  operations  of TNC were  purchased in exchange for (i) 3,750,000
shares of the Company's  Common Stock (of which 1,000,000  shares are being held
pursuant  to an escrow  agreement  for a period of 18 months  subject to certain
purchase  price  adjustments  described  below) and (ii) the  assumption  by the
Company  of  certain  indebtedness  of  TNC up to a  maximum  of  $4.6  million,
inclusive  amounts  advanced to TNC by the  Company  prior to the closing of the
acquisition.  The purchased assets include telecommunications switches and other
network  equipment,  customer  and vendor  contracts,  an FCC section 214 common
carrier  license,  an operator  services  center and other assets  sufficient to
continue the ongoing business of TNC. The FCC section 214 common carrier license
gives the  Company  the  authority  to resell both  international  switched  and
private  line  services of  authorized  carriers.  The final  purchase  price is
subject to adjustment if (i)  liabilities in excess of $4.6 million are assumed,
(ii) the Company is required to invoke  certain  indemnifications  by TNC, (iii)
there  are  certain  expense  overruns,  or  (iv)  there  are  certain  rejected
contracts. In addition,  certain creditors of TNC have the option to convert all
or a portion of their debt into shares of the Company's Common Stock.

The  acquired  telecommunications  switches and  operator  services  platform in
Omaha,  Nebraska  provide  enhanced  services,  such as global calling cards and
international  prepaid debit cards to  individuals,  small  businesses and large
corporate  customers  primarily in the United  States,  Western Europe and Latin
America.  Through the acquired  operator  services center,  the Company provides
multilingual  customer support.  The U.S. switching and operator services center
enables  customers in foreign  countries to take advantage of lower cost routing
and higher transmission  quality for international calls. The Company's services
are  currently  marketed  through  various  distribution  channels in the United
States, Western Europe and Latin America.

WWC Acquisition
- ---------------

On July 3, 1997,  the Company,  through a  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  merged The
Wallace Wade Company ("WWC") into the Company pursuant to that certain Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated April 20, 1997. WWC was a telecommunications  marketing
consulting firm which produced and implemented  marketing strategies for clients
ranging from small companies to large corporate  clients.  Mr. John Dalton,  the
Company's  President and Chief Executive  Officer,  was the sole  shareholder of
WWC.

In connection with the WWC acquisition,  the Company delivered to Mr. Dalton (i)
1,400,000  shares of the  Company's  Common Stock,  of which 500,000  shares are
being held pursuant to an escrow  agreement  pending  delivery to the Company of
audited  Financial  Statements of WWC and 900,000 shares are being held pursuant
to the escrow  agreement  subject to certain  adjustments  to the purchase price
based on the Company entering into business agreements that WWC was negotiating,
(ii) $75,000  cash,  of which $37,500 was advanced to Mr. Dalton on June 6, 1997
with the  remaining  $37,500  being  deferred  at Mr.  Dalton's  election  until
September  15,  1997;  and (iii) a  Promissory  Note in the  amount of  $175,000
payable as follows:  one payment of $50,000  payable on October 1, 1997, and two
payments of $62,500 payable on February 1, 1998 and July 1, 1998.

                 INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED
                             FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The following  unaudited pro forma  combined  financial  statements of WorldPort
Communications,   Inc.  ("WorldPort"  or  the  "Company")  give  effect  to  the
acquisition of certain assets of Telenational Communications Limited Partnership
("TNC") and the merger of The Wallace Wade Company  ("WWC") into a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company,  both of which were  accounted for as purchases.  The
results of  operations  of TNC are included in the  financial  statements of the
Company from the date of acquisition, June 20, 1997.

The  unaudited  Pro  Forma  Combined  Balance  Sheets  give  effect  to the  WWC
acquisition  as if it had occurred on June 30,  1997.  The  unaudited  Pro Forma
Combined Statements of Operations give effect to the acquisitions of TNC and WWC
as if they had occurred on January 1, 1996.

The unaudited pro forma  combined  financial  statements  give effect to (i) the
acquisitions  of TNC  and  WWC  and  related  goodwill,  (ii)  anticipated  cost
reductions to be realized  from the  elimination  of management  fees payable to
TNC's general  partner,  and (iii) the elimination of  nonrecurring  acquisition
costs  incurred  and  expensed  by TNC.  Neither the  expected  benefits or cost
reductions anticipated by the Company nor the future corporate overhead costs of
the Company have been  included in the pro forma  financial  information  of the
Company as such benefits and costs cannot be estimated at this time.

The pro forma  adjustments  are based on estimates,  available  information  and
certain  assumptions  and  may be  revised  as  additional  information  becomes
available.  The pro forma  financial data does not purport to represent what the
Company's  financial  position or results of operations  would have been if such
transactions  had in fact  occurred  on  those  dates  and  are not  necessarily
representative of the Company's  financial position or results of operations for
any future period. The unaudited pro forma combined financial  statements should
be read in  conjunction  with the  Company's  Form  10-KSB  for the  year  ended
December 31, 1996 and Form 10-QSB for the quarter  ended June 30, 1997,  and the
financial statements and notes thereto of TNC and WWC included elsewhere in this
Form-8K/A.   See  "Risk  Factors"   included  in  the  notes  to  the  condensed
consolidated  financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-QSB for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997.

1. GENERAL
   -------

   WorldPort  Communications,  Inc. and its  subsidiaries,  ("WorldPort"  or the
   "Company") is a facilities-based  network provider of enhanced  international
   and  domestic  telecommunication  services.  Prior  to  the  closing  of  the
   acquisitions of Telenational  Communications  Limited Partnership ("TNC") and
   The  Wallace  Wade  Company  ("WWC"),  the Company  was a  development  stage
   enterprise and devoted  substantially  all of its efforts to identifying  and
   acquiring  businesses,  developing a public  market for its stock and raising
   capital.

   The  historical  financial  statements  reflect the  financial  position  and
   results of operations of TNC and WWC on a stand-alone  basis and were derived
   from the respective  financial statements presented elsewhere in this filing.
   WWC had a March 31 fiscal year end.  Because of the differing fiscal year end
   for WWC, the financial  position and results of operations  for WWC have been
   combined  with  those of the  Company  and TNC as of and for the  year  ended
   December 31, 1996 and the six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively.

2. ACQUISITIONS
   ------------

   On  June  20,  1997,   the  Company   acquired   substantially   all  of  the
   telecommunications assets and operations of TNC. The assets and operations of
   TNC were  purchased in exchange  for (i)  3,750,000  shares of the  Company's
   Common Stock (of which 1,000,000  shares are being held pursuant to an escrow
   agreement for a period of 18 months  following the closing subject to certain
   purchase price  adjustments  described  below) and (ii) the assumption by the
   Company  of  certain  indebtedness  of  TNC  up to a maximum of $4.6 million,
   inclusive of amounts advanced to  TNC  by the Company prior to the closing of
   the acquisition.  The  final  purchase  price is subject to adjustment if (i)
   liabilities in excess of $4.6  million  are  assumed,  (ii)  the  Company  is
   required to invoke  certain indemnifications  by TNC, (iii) there are certain
   expense overruns, or (iv) there are certain rejected contracts.  In addition,
   certain creditors of TNC have the option to convert all or a portion of their
   debt into shares of the Company's  Common Stock. The results of operations of
   TNC are included in the financial  statements of the Company from the date of
   acquisition,  June 20, 1997.

   On July 3, 1997, the Company, through a wholly-owned  subsidiary,  merged WWC
   into the  Company.  Mr.  John  Dalton,  the  Company's  President  and  Chief
   Executive  Officer,  was the sole  shareholder of WWC. In connection with the
   WWC acquisition,  the Company delivered to Mr. Dalton (i) 1,400,000 shares of
   the Company's  Common  Stock,  of which 500,000 are being held pursuant to an
   escrow  agreement  pending  delivery  to the  Company  of  audited  Financial
   Statements  of WWC and  900,000  shares are being held  pursuant to an escrow
   agreement  subject to certain  adjustments to the purchase price based on the
   Company  entering into business  agreements  that WWC was  negotiating;  (ii)
   $75,000 cash; and (iii) a $175,000 promissory note payable.

3. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENT
   -----------------------------------------------------

   Records the purchase of WWC for (i) 1,400,000  shares of the Company's Common
   Stock,  (ii)  $75,000 in cash,  including  $37,500  which was advanced to Mr.
   Dalton,  WWC's  sole  shareholder  on  June 6,  1997,  and  (iii) a  $175,000
   promissory note payable for a total estimated purchase price of $1,300,000.

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To Telenational Communications Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying  balance sheets of Telenational  Communications
Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related statements
of operations,  partners' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial  position of Telenational  Communications
Limited  Partnership  as of December  31, 1995 and 1996,  and the results of its
operations  and its cash  flows  for the years  then  ended in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
   ------------------------------------------------

   Description of Business
   -----------------------

   Telenational  Communications Limited Partnership (the "Partnership" or "TNC")
   is a  Nebraska  limited  partnership  providing  enhanced  international  and
   domestic  telecommunications  services. The Partnership is a facilities-based
   reseller   of   services   of    interexchange    carriers    that   operates
   telecommunications   switches  and  operator  services  platforms  in  Omaha,
   Nebraska.

   On  June  20,  1997,  the   Partnership   sold   substantially   all  of  its
   telecommunications  assets and operations to WorldPort  Communications,  Inc.
   ("WorldPort"),  in exchange for (i) 3,750,000  shares of  WorldPort's  common
   stock  (of  which  1,000,000  shares  are being  held  pursuant  to an escrow
   agreement subject to certain purchase price adjustments  described below) and
   (ii) the assumption by WorldPort of certain  indebtedness  of the Partnership
   up to a maximum of $4.6  million, inclusive of amounts advanced to TNC by the
   Company prior to the closing of the acquisition. The final purchase  price is
   subject  to  adjustment  if  (i)  liabilities  in excess  of $4.6 million are
   assumed,  (ii)  WorldPort  is required to invoke certain  indemnifications by
   the Partnership,  (iii) there are certain expense  overruns or (iv) there are
   certain  rejected  contracts.  Prior  to  the  closing  of the asset purchase
   agreement,  WorldPort  loaned  the  Partnership $1,178,000 to provide working
   capital.

   On April 29, 1997, the  Partnership  and WorldPort  entered into a management
   service agreement (the "MSA"),  wherein WorldPort provided to the Partnership
   day-to-day   executive   management   services.   The  MSA  provides  certain
   indemnifications to WorldPort as well as a covenant by the Partnership not to
   sue or assert any claim or action against WorldPort arising from the services
   provided  by  WorldPort  pursuant  to the MSA.  The MSA  terminated  with the
   closing of the asset purchase agreement on June 20, 1997.

   The  Partnership  has  operated  at a loss for the  past  several  years  and
   continued  to operate  at a loss  through  June 20,  1997.  As a result,  the
   Partnership  has  experienced   negative  operating  cash  flows  and  has  a
   substantial  working  capital  deficit as of  December  31, 1996 and June 20,
   1997. Management of the Partnership considered various options to address the
   liquidity  and  working  capital   concerns  and,  as  discussed  above,  the
   Partnership sold  substantially all of its operating assets and a substantial
   portion of its liabilities to WorldPort. WorldPort had no operations prior to
   its acquisition of the assets and on-going  operations of the Partnership and
   there can be no assurance that WorldPort will be effective in reducing future
   operating  losses,  negative  cash flows or the  working  capital  deficit or
   improving  the  liquidity  of the  operations  and assets  acquired  from the
   Partnership.

   Income Taxes
   ------------

   The Partnership is not subject to income taxes and, accordingly, no provision
   for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

   Property and Equipment
   ----------------------

   Property and equipment items are carried at cost. Expenditures for additions,
   improvements and renewals which add significant  value to the asset or extend
   the life of the asset are capitalized.


                                     F-14

               TELENATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)


   Expenditures  for  maintenance  and repairs are  expensed  as  incurred.  The
   Partnership  provides for  depreciation of property and equipment items using
   the  straight-line  method based on the estimated  useful lives of the assets
   ranging from five to 31 years.

   The  Partnership   reviews  its  property  and  equipment   periodically  for
   indicators of impairment in value.  For the years ended December 31, 1995 and
   1996,  there  was no  loss  resulting  from an  impairment  in  value  of the
   Partnership's property and equipment.

   Interim Financial Statements
   ----------------------------

   The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared by the Partnership
   without audit  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities and
   Exchange  Commission.  Certain information and footnote  disclosures normally
   included in  financial  statements  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
   accepted  accounting  principles  have been condensed or omitted  pursuant to
   such rules and regulations; however, management believes that the disclosures
   herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

   In the opinion of the Partnership's  management,  the accompanying  financial
   statements  contain all  adjustments  (consisting  of only  normal  recurring
   adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position
   as of June 20, 1997 and the results of operations  and cash flows for the six
   months ended June 30, 1996 and the period ended June 20, 1997. The results of
   operations  for the six months  ended June 30, 1996 and the period ended June
   20, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full
   years.

   Use of Estimates
   ----------------

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
   contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
   the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during the reporting  period.
   Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   Concentration of Risk
   ---------------------

   Financial   instruments   that   potentially   subject  the   Partnership  to
   concentrations of risk are accounts receivable.  The Partnership  continually
   evaluates the  creditworthiness  of its customers;  however,  the Partnership
   generally  does not require  collateral.  The risk is  mitigated by the large
   number of  entities  comprising  the  Partnership's  customer  base and their
   geographical dispersion across several states and countries.  The Partnership
   establishes its customer base through various agent  relationships.  Although
   no single  customer  accounts for 10 percent of total sales,  several agents'
   customer bases account for sales in excess of 10 percent of total sales.  For
   the years  ended  December  31,  1995 and  1996,  the  Partnership  had three
   significant  vendors that comprised 38 percent of total carrier  services for
   both years.

   stockholder. The investment is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable
   value.  The estimated fair value of the investment  approximated the carrying
   amount at December 31, 1996.

5. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS

   TNC has financed the  acquisition of certain  property and equipment  through

   of the assets which are included in property and equipment  financed pursuant
   to these leases is as follows:

   1996. On March 20, 1997, this note was restructured and now bears interest at
   15  percent  and is  payable  in  monthly  installments  of  $52,861  through
   September 1, 1998. The  restructured  note is secured by all of the assets of
   the Partnership.

   During 1997,  certain  individuals and limited  partners loaned monies to the
   Partnership on an unsecured basis. These loans are payable on demand and bear
   interest at 8 percent.



7. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
   --------------------------

   The  Partnership  has  contracted  to pay a  management  fee  to its  general
   partner, a corporation.  For 1995 and 1996, this fee amounted to $191,835 and
   $130,676,  which is equal to 1 percent  of gross  revenue  as  defined in the
   partnership agreement.

   The Partnership has an unsecured  revolving line of credit with an individual
   who is a limited  partner and the major  shareholder of its general  partner.
   The  individual  loans money to the  Partnership  on a regular  basis  during
   periods of reduced cash flow. The  Partnership  makes payments on the line of
   credit when excess cash is  available.  As of December 31,  1996,  the amount
   outstanding on this line of credit amounted to $640,391.

   Various  individuals  and  limited  partners  have  advanced  funds  to the
   Partnership in the form of unsecured loans.  (See Note 6).

   In 1995, the Partnership  sold its primary office building to shareholders of
   the  general  partnership  for  $800,000.  Included in loss on sale assets is
   $327,202 attributable to the sale of the building.

8. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
   ---------------------

   The  Partnership  has  a  qualified  401(k)   profit-sharing   plan  covering
   substantially  all full-time  employees with over one year of service.  Under
   the plan,  qualified  employees  may elect to defer up to 15 percent of their
   annual compensation through a salary reduction  arrangement.  The Partnership
   contributes 25 percent of the first 5 percent of compensation  contributed to
   the plan by each participating employee.  Total Partnership  contributions to
   the plan under this matching  agreement  were $12,508 for 1995 and $9,234 for
   1996.

9. SALE OF "1 PLUS" ASSETS
   -----------------------

   In July  1995,  the  Partnership  sold its  domestic  "1 Plus"  long-distance
   telephone  business  consisting of its entire domestic  customer base and the
   related accounts receivable to Midcom  Communications,  Inc. ("Midcom") for a
   combination  of  cash  and  the  assumption  of  certain   liabilities.   The
   Partnership  recognized a gain of $4,529,802  in connection  with the sale of
   its "1 Plus" assets to Midcom.

10. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
    -----------------------

   On April 1, 1996, the Partnership sold its telemarketing division, consisting
   of its customer base and the related  accounts  receivable along with certain
   depreciable property.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
    -----------------------------

   Operating Leases
   ----------------

   The Partnership leases the facility from which it operates and certain office
   equipment under  noncancelable  operating leases that expire at various dates
   through 2004. Terms of the leases vary but generally  require the Partnership
   to pay a portion of the real estate or personal property taxes, insurance and
   certain maintenance  expenses.  Rent expense for 1996, exclusive of ancillary
   costs, amounted to $60,000 for facilities and $26,727 for equipment.

   Future minimum facility rental payments,  exclusive of the ancillary charges,
   are as follows:

               Year ended-
                 1997                $60,000
                 1998                 60,000
                 1999                 60,000
                 2000                 60,000
                 2001                 60,000

   Litigation
   ----------

   From time to time, the Partnership is involved in various  lawsuits or claims
   arising  from the normal  course of business.  In the opinion of  management,
   none of these  lawsuits or claims will have a material  adverse effect on the
   financial statements or results of operations of the Partnership.

These financial  statements are the responsibility of the Company's  management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based
on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
   ------------------------------------------

   Property and Equipment
   ----------------------

   Property and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciation is computed using
   the double declining balance method of depreciation.

   Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged  to  expense  when
   incurred.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments,  which extend the
   useful lives of existing  equipment,  are capitalized and  depreciated.  Upon
   retirement or  disposition  of property and  equipment,  the cost and related
   accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain
   or loss is recognized in the statements of income.

   Revenue Recognition
   -------------------

   The Company recognizes revenue from its consulting  services as such services
   are performed. The cost, including commissions,  is accrued to properly match
   the cost associated with the revenue recognized.

   Income Taxes
   ------------

   The Company  follows the liability  method of accounting  for income taxes in
   accordance  with Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 109. Under
   this  method,  deferred  income  taxes are  recorded  based upon  differences
   between the financial  reporting and tax bases of assets and  liabilities and
   are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when
   the underlying  assets or liabilities  are recovered or settled.  The Company

                           THE WALLACE WADE COMPANY

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


   has recorded a full valuation allowance against all deferred tax  assets  due
   to  the  uncertainty  of  ultimate  realizability.

   Interim Financial Statements
   ----------------------------

   The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  by the Company
   without audit  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities and
   Exchange  Commission.  Certain information and footnote  disclosures normally
   included in  financial  statements  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
   accepted  accounting  principles  have been condensed or omitted  pursuant to
   such rules and regulations; however, management believes that the disclosures
   herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

   In the  opinion  of the  Company's  management,  the  accompanying  financial
   statements  contain all  adjustments  (consisting  of only  normal  recurring
   adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position
   as of June 30, 1997 and  the results of  operations  and  cash  flows for thE
   three months ended  June  30,  1996 and 1997,  respectively.  The  results of
   operations for  the three  months  ended  June  30,  1996  and  1997  are not
   necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

   Use of Estimates
   ----------------

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
   contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
   the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during the reporting  period.
   Actual results could differ from those estimates.
