                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Plan Administrator
Intermedia Communications Inc.
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Intermedia Communications Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. 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 net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December
31, 1999 and 1998 and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for
the year ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes at end of year as of December 31, 1999 and
nonexempt transactions for the year then ended are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements but
are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in
our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Intermedia Communications Inc. 401(k) Profit
Sharing Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of
Intermedia Communications Inc. and affiliated companies (collectively, the
Company) who have at least three months of service and are age 21 or older,
except those employees whose employment is governed by a collective bargaining
agreement or leased employees. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

Effective July 1, 1998, the Plan was amended and restated to allow for the
transfer of certain plan assets to the Putnam Group of Investment Funds.
Additional amendments were made to the Plan to allow employees who were employed
by the following companies acquired by the Company to participate in the Plan:
Shared Technologies Fairchild, Inc. (Shared), Long Distance Saver group of
companies (collectively, LDS) and National Telecommunications of Florida, Inc.
and NTC, Inc. (collectively, National). Employees previously making salary
reduction contributions under 401(k) plans sponsored by Shared, LDS, or National
(collectively, previous plans) began to make salary deferrals into the Plan at
the rates being made under the previous plans, unless such participants elected
to change or cease making such contributions.

Effective January 1, 1999, all participants of the Digex, Incorporated (Digex)
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan became eligible to participate in the Plan. Digex is
a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. Employees previously making salary
reduction contributions under a 401(k) plan sponsored by Digex began to make
salary deferrals into the Plan unless such participants elected to change or
cease making such contributions.

CONTRIBUTIONS

Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% of pretax annual compensation
up to certain amounts, as defined in the plan document. Participants may also
contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined
benefit or defined contribution plans. Company contributions are discretionary
at the option of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company contributed 50%
of the first 7% of compensation that a participant contributed to the Plan
during 1999.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and
allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) Plan earnings.
Allocations are based on participant compensation or account balances, as
defined. Forfeited balances of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are
used to reduce future Company contributions. The benefit to which a participant
is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company contribution portion of their accounts plus
actual earnings thereon is based on years of service. A participant is
incrementally vested over three years of credited service.

INVESTMENT OPTIONS

Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employer and employee
contributions in percentage increments in any of eleven investment options.
Participants may change their investment options daily.

PARTICIPANT LOANS

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the participant's vested
account balance. Loan terms range from 1 to 15 years. The loans are secured by
the balance in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate
commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined monthly by the plan
administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through monthly payroll
deductions.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Upon termination of service, death, disability, or retirement, a participant may
elect to receive a lump-sum payment equal to the vested value of his or her
account, or choose from various forms of annuity payments. As of December 31,
1999 and 1998, participants elected distributions in the amount of $128,624 and
$14,112, respectively, that had not yet been paid.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)

PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

All investments, other than loans to participants, are stated at fair value
which equals the quoted market price on the last business day of the plan year.
The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which
approximate fair value.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain amounts in the 1998 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1999 presentation.

3. INVESTMENTS

The Plan's investments were held and administered by Union Central Life
Insurance Company through June 30, 1998 and by Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company
beginning July 1, 1998.

During 1999, the Plan's investments (including investments purchased, sold as
well as held during the year) appreciated in fair value as determined by quoted
market prices as follows:

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


4. Income Tax Status

The Company has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service dated June 2, 1995, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust
is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan has been
amended since receiving the determination letter and has applied for a new
determination letter which it has not yet received. However, the plan
administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is
qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
