              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Preparation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with 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 (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-
K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the periods presented. Common stock equivalents are
excluded because they are antidilutive.

2. Accounting Change

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation."  SFAS No. 123 defines a fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans (including stock option
plans).  As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company expects to  continue to
measure compensation costs for its plans as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."

3. Investment in Omnitel

The investment in Omnitel consists of the following:

4. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

CCII is required to make additional capital contributions to Omnitel up to a
total of approximately 22.0 billion lire ($14,500,000) in order to fund the
Company's  share of the capital requirements of OPI.  The cash held in escrow of
approximately $14,800,000 at August 8, 1996 may only be used for such capital
contributions pursuant to the Senior Discount Notes' Indenture.  These
additional capital contributions require capital calls by Omnitel, which are
expected to occur through 1996.

Pursuant to the Senior Discount Notes Indenture, any net proceeds from an asset
sale that are not applied within 12 months after such asset sale to an
investment in a related business (a business that directly or indirectly
operates, acquires, develops and constructs any "wireless" telecommunications
services or related services) will be deemed excess proceeds. When the aggregate
amount of excess proceeds exceeds $5,000,000, the Company is required to make an
offer to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased
using the excess proceeds, at an offer price in cash equal to 100% of the
accreted value of the Notes. As a result of the Company's waiver and release of
its claim to participate in Sterling Cellular Ltd. in December 1995 in exchange
for cash of approximately $40,000,000, the Company has approximately $25,300,000
that may be deemed excess proceeds in December 1996.

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

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
- -----------------------------------------

     Equity in net loss of Omnitel increased to $11,856,000 from $1,730,000
because of the increase in the net loss of Omnitel. The increase is due to an
increase in Omnitel's share of OPI's net loss to $80,182,000 from $11,922,000.
OPI's net loss increased to $114,536,000 from $17,044,000 as a result of the
increase in all costs due to the construction of OPI's cellular network and the
commencement of operations in December 1995. Depreciation and amortization of
certain previously capitalized costs began in December 1995 upon the
commencement of operations.

     General and administrative expenses decreased to $825,000 from $1,106,000
primarily because, as of December 1995, CCII no longer participates in an entity
that owns one of the two GSM cellular licenses for Delhi, India, and CCII
reduced its efforts to obtain new cellular licenses. The 1995 amount is reduced
by an expense reimbursement of $353,000 from Omnitel for amounts previously
charged to general and administrative expenses.

     In 1995, deferred costs of $223,00 were written-off in connection with
unsuccessful efforts to obtain a license in Guatemala.

     Amortization of investments in joint ventures increased to $173,000 from
$119,000 as a result of the amortization of additional costs capitalized in
connection with the investment in Omnitel.

     Interest and other income increased to $1,298,000 from $73,000 primarily
because of an increase in funds available for investment.

     Interest expense increased to $5,756,000 from $661,000 primarily due to the
interest on the Senior Discount Notes. Interest expense in 1995 does not include
interest of $1,300,000 which was capitalized during the three months ended June
30, 1995. The Company discontinued interest capitalization in December 1995 upon
the commencement of OPI's operations.

     The fees to CCI in connection with the bank loan decreased to none from
$47,000 as a result of the termination of the CCI guarantee in July 1995.

     In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation." SFAS No. 123 defines a fair value based method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation plans (including stock option plans). As
permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company expects to continue to measure
compensation costs for its plans as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."

Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
- ---------------------------------------

     Equity in net loss of Omnitel increased to $20,785,000 from $3,553,000
because of the increase in the net loss of Omnitel. The increase is due to an
increase in Omnitel's share of OPI's net loss to $140,541,000 from $24,341,000.
OPI's net loss increased to $198,855,000 from $33,267,000 as a result of the
increase in all costs due to the construction of OPI's cellular network and the
commencement of operations in December 1995. Depreciation and amortization of
certain previously capitalized costs began in December 1995 upon the
commencement of operations.

     General and administrative expenses increased to $1,562,000 from $1,437,000
primarily due to an expense reimbursement in 1995 of $893,000 from Omnitel for
amounts previously charged to general and administrative expenses. After
adjusting for these expense reductions, general and administrative expenses
decreased because, as of December 1995, CCII no longer participates in an entity
that owns one of the two GSM cellular licenses for Delhi, India, and CCII
reduced its efforts to obtain new cellular licenses.

     In 1995, deferred costs of $223,00 were written-off in connection with
unsuccessful efforts to obtain a license in Guatemala.

     Amortization of investments in joint ventures increased to $345,000 from
$204,000 as a result of the amortization of additional costs capitalized in
connection with the investment in Omnitel.

     Interest and other income increased to $2,709,000 from $171,000 primarily
because of an increase in funds available for investment.

     Interest expense increased to $11,242,000 from $1,320,000 primarily due to
the interest on the Senior Discount Notes. Interest expense in 1995 does not
include interest of $2,537,000 which was capitalized during the six months ended
June 30, 1995. The Company discontinued interest capitalization in December 1995
upon the commencement of OPI's operations.

     The fees to CCI in connection with the bank loan decreased to none from
$92,000 as a result of the termination of the CCI guarantee in July 1995.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's capital requirements are primarily based upon the agreements
and requirements of the joint ventures in which it is now or may become a
participant. The Company also requires capital to pay for corporate overhead
expenses, personnel costs and taxes, as well as capital to continue to explore
other opportunities that it is pursuing or that may arise. The Company had no
material commitments for capital expenditures, except as described below.
Italian lire have been translated solely for the convenience of the reader at an
exchange rate of 1518.60 lire = $1.00, the Noon Buying Rate on August 8, 1996.

     In August 1995, the Company issued $281,571,000 aggregate principal amount
of 13-1/4% Senior Discount Notes due 2000 (the "Notes") and 281,571 warrants to
purchase 317,049 shares of common stock. The Notes were issued at a price to the
public of 52.783% or $148,622,000. The original issue discount accretes at a
rate of 13-1/4%, compounded semiannually, to an aggregate principal amount of
$281,571,000 by August 15, 2000. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of
the Company and rank senior in right of payment to all future subordinated
indebtedness of the Company. The indenture governing the Notes contains
restrictions relating to, among other things: (i) the incurrence of additional
indebtedness, (ii) the issuance of preferred stock, (iii) dividends and other
payments and (iv) mergers, consolidations and sales of assets.

     The indenture required that $51,800,000 of the proceeds be placed in an
escrow account until it is needed to finance the Company's additional capital
contribution obligations to Omnitel, provided that Omnitel is not in default of
any obligation to fund capital contributions of OPI. To date, $38,723,000 has
been used for additional contributions to Omnitel.
 
     Pursuant to the Notes Indenture, any net proceeds from an asset sale that
are not applied within 12 months after such asset sale to an investment in a
related business (a business that directly or indirectly operates, acquires,
develops and constructs any "wireless" telecommunications services or related
services) will be deemed excess proceeds. When the aggregate amount of excess
proceeds exceeds $5,000,000, the Company is required to make an offer to
purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased using the
excess proceeds, at an offer price in cash equal to 100% of the accreted value
of the Notes. As a result of the Company's waiver and release of its claim to
participate in Sterling Cellular Ltd. in December 1995 in exchange for cash of
approximately $40,000,000, the Company has approximately $25,300,000 that may be
deemed excess proceeds in December 1996.

     Cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash held in escrow
for Omnitel capital contributions are expected to be sufficient to meet the
Company's capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Future financing may
be necessary for capital contributions to Omnitel due to unexpected
circumstances or for other opportunities that may arise.

     As a result of the award of Italy's second GSM cellular license to OPI, OPI
requires capital to construct its cellular system and to fund its operations.
OPI currently expects to require approximately 3,250 billion lire ($2.1 billion)
which will be funded by capital contributions and bank financing. OPI has
completed the syndication of a 10 year bank financing for approximately 1,800
billion lire ($1.2 billion), and therefore expects to

                                      14

          Cellular Communications International, Inc.and Subsidiaries

                                    (continued)

require approximately 1,450 billion lire ($955 million) in capital contributions
(approximately 1,015 billion lire ($668 million) and 435 billion lire ($286
million) from Omnitel and Pronto Italia, respectively). Omnitel intends to fund
its share of OPI capital contributions through equity. To date, approximately
875 billion lire ($576 million) of this amount has been contributed by Omnitel
to OPI. The remaining OPI capital calls, and therefore Omnitel capital calls,
are expected through 1996. The Company's total cumulative equity commitment to
Omnitel is approximately 152.5 billion lire ($100.4 million), based on Omnitel's
total capitalization of 1,040 billion lire ($685 million). To date, the Company
has funded approximately 130.5 billion lire of this commitment (an aggregate of
$82.2 million at the exchange rates in effect at the time of each contribution).
 
     The Company's remaining commitment of approximately 22.0 bilion lire ($14.5
million) is expected to be provided to Omnitel through 1996. An Omnitel capital
call of 140 billion lire ($92.2 million) is expected in the third quarter of
1996.

     The information in the preceding paragraphs include projections; in
reviewing such information it should be kept in mind that actual results may
differ materially from those in such projections. These projections were based
on various factors and were derived utilizing numerous assumptions. Important
assumptions and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in these projections include OPI's ability to continue to design
network routes, install facilities, obtain and maintain any required
governmental licenses or approvals and finance construction and development, all
in a timely manner, at reasonable costs and on satisfactory terms and
conditions, as well as assumptions about customer acceptance, churn rates,
overall market penetration and competition from providers of alternative
services. Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved
in the derivation of these projections, and the failure of such other
assumptions to be realized as well as other factors may also cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. The Company assumes no
obligation to update these projections to reflect actual funding requirements,
capital expenditures and results, changes in assumptions or changes in other
factors affecting such projections.

     A requirement of the OPI bank financing is that the venturers severally
agree with the banks thereto that they will make their capital contributions to
OPI in accordance with an agreed upon schedule. The Company's maximum liability
under the OPI bank financing would be its proportionate share of OPI's required
additional equity funding, which is approximately 20.5 billion lire ($13.5
million). In addition, OPI has provided an approximate 219 billion lire ($144.2
million) performance bond that requires payments to the Italian government if
OPI fails to meet certain operational targets. Although no assurance can be
given, OPI plans to achieve each of its targets. The Company's maximum liability
under the performance bond is approximately 22.5 billion lire ($14.8 million),
reflecting its proportionate interest in OPI.

                                   (continued)

     To the extent that the Company obtains financing in U.S. dollars and the
Company's commitments to Omnitel are in Italian lire, it will encounter currency
exchange rate risks. Omnitel's revenues will be received in Italian lire and
currently there are no foreign exchange controls in Italy. There can be no
assurance that foreign exchange restrictions will not be introduced in the
future.

     The Company is primarily a holding company with limited business operations
of its own. The Company's assets consist primarily of cash, marketable
securities and its ownership interest in Omnitel. The Company does not hold, nor
is it likely that the Company will hold, a majority interest in any operating
systems. The Company's minority voting position in Omnitel currently precludes
it from controlling Omnitel or OPI, even though the Company is involved in the
management of Omnitel and intends to participate in the future only in operating
companies in which it can be involved in management. Thus, the Company may be
unable to cause the implementation of strategies that it favors and, in the
event of a disagreement between the Company and one or more of its partners, the
strategies adopted and actions taken by an affiliate company may in some cases
be contrary to the Company's preferred strategies and actions. In addition, the
Company may be unable to access the cash flow of an affiliated companies since
(i) it does not have the requisite control to cause such entities to pay
dividends, (ii) substantially all of such entities are expected to be parties to
credit or other borrowing agreements that severely restrict or prohibit the
payment of dividends, and such entities are likely to continue to be subject to
such restrictions and prohibitions for the foreseeable future and (iii) some
countries tax payment and repatriation of dividends. As a result, the Company
does not expect to receive significant cash through dividends or other
distributions from an affiliate in the foreseeable future.

     Because the Company does not currently have any cash flow and does not
expect any cash flow for the foreseeable future, its ability to repay the Notes
at maturity will be dependent on developing one or more sources of cash at or
prior to maturity. The Company may (i) seek to refinance all or a portion of the
Notes at maturity through sales of additional debt or equity securities of the
Company, (ii) if possible and subject to the appropriate consents and approvals
and certain other limitations set forth in the OPI Agreement and the Omnitel
Agreement, seek to sell all or a portion of its interest in Omnitel, (iii)
negotiate with its partners to permit any cash produced by OPI to be distributed
to equity holders rather than invested in the business and/or (iv) seek to
invest in companies that will make substantial cash distributions on or before
the maturity of the Notes. There can be no assurance that (i) there will be a
market for the debt or equity securities of the Company in the future, (ii) the
Company will be permitted to sell particular assets or be able to sell assets in
a timely manner or on commercially acceptable terms or in an amount that (giving
effect to the substantial corporate income taxes which could be due in the event
of such a sale) will be sufficient to repay the Notes when due, (iii) the
Company will be able to persuade its partners that cash generated by the
operations of its affiliated entities should be distributed to equity holders
(in fact, the Company expects that Omnitel and OPI will utilize all of their
respective cash flow for debt repayment or internal development opportunities
for the foreseeable future) or (iv) the Company will be able to locate and
invest in companies that will be mature enough to make substantial cash
distributions to investors prior to the maturity of the Notes.

                                  (continued)

     The Company has not been successful in obtaining any new cellular licenses
since more companies recognize the significant value of obtaining cellular
licenses and as governments increasingly realize they can extract value from
license applicants. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in obtaining new cellular licenses or in developing other
opportunities in the future.

     Cash used in operating activities was $3,816,000 and $1,410,000 in 1996 and
1995, respectively. The change is primarily due to the payment of income taxes
of $2,100,000 in 1996. Cash used in investing activities was $46,527,000 in 1996
as a result of purchases of marketable securities, net of proceeds from sales.
