             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)



 1. Summary of Accounting Policies

    (a) Principles of Consolidation

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hungarian
        Teleconstruct Corp. (the "Company") and its majority-owned subsidiaries,
        except for Pilistav Kft ("Pilistav") in which the Company had a 68%
        interest at January 1, 1995, but control was temporary (see Note 8(b)). 
        All material intercompany balances and transactions have been 
        eliminated.

    (b) Use of Estimates

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

    (c) Fiscal Year

        The Company's reporting period is the fiscal year ending December 31.

    (d) Foreign Currency Translation

        The Company uses the U.S. dollar as the functional currency for its
        majority-owned Hungarian subsidiaries.  Accordingly, monetary assets and
        liabilities of the subsidiaries were translated by using the exchange
        rate in effect at the balance sheet date while nonmonetary assets and
        liabilities were translated at historical rates.  Income and expense
        accounts were translated at the average rates in effect during the
        period.  Translation adjustments and transaction gains or losses were
        reflected in the consolidated statements of loss.

    (e) Cash Equivalents

        For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
        considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity
        of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The carrying amounts
        reported in the accompanying balance sheets approximate fair value.

    (f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

        Due to the nature of the VAT refund receivable, receivables from related
        parties, notes receivable from affiliate, payables to related parties 
        and advances to affiliate, it is not practicable to approximate their 
        fair market values.

     (g) Investment in Affiliate

         The Company's 9.7% equity interest in Hungarian Broadcasting Corp.
         ("HBC") is accounted for using the equity method since the Company has
         the ability to exercise significant influence over HBC.  Under this
         method, the Company records as a loss its share of the losses 
         incurred by HBC and dividends are credited against the investment 
         account when declared.

    (h) Property, Equipment and Depreciation

        Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed by
        the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets 
        as follows:

                                                Estimated
                                               Useful Life
           Office condominiums                     40
   
           Furniture, fixtures and equipment      3 - 5

           Motor vehicles                         4 - 5

    (i) Net Loss Per Share

        The net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of
        common shares outstanding during each period.
 
 2. Organization, Business and Discontinued Operations 

    (a) Business

        The Company was organized on November 9, 1992 and was in the development
        stage through December 31, 1993.  The Company had two operating business
        segments: (1) building of condominium apartments and building renovation
        and (2) design and civil engineering, and laying of underground fiber
        optic telephone and cable lines.  The latter segment was discontinued in
        1994.  Through its wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary, Teleconstruct
        Epitesi RT. ("Teleconstruct") the Company is currently building for sale
        two luxury 14-unit condominiums in Budapest.

                            (Unaudited)


        During 1993, the Company also organized the following Hungarian
        subsidiaries, all of which are limited liability companies:

                               %
             Name          Ownership           Business
        Tele-Media Kft        100         Advertising and promoting use of     
                                          additional telephone options.  In
                                          process of being liquidated.

        TC Telecom Kft        100         Liquidated in 1995

        Termolang Kft          90         Sold in September 1995 (building
                                          renovation)

        Tele-Plusz Kft         60         Sold in April 1995 (laying of
                                          underground fiber optic telephone
                                          and cable lines and design and
                                          civil engineering)

      During 1994, the Company organized Central Europe Consult ("CEC"), an
      Austrian corporation, in which it has a 51% interest, with Hungarian
      Telephone and Cable Corp. ("HTCC"), a U.S. public company which has two
      of the same officers and directors as the Company, owning a 49% interest. 
      CEC is in the process of being liquidated.

  (b) Sale of Building Renovation Business

      Effective September 30, 1995, the Company's 90% interest in Termolang Kft
      was sold for its original investment to the 10% interest holder for a gain
      of approximately $11,000.  All construction revenues reflected in the
      consolidated statements of loss were earned by Termolang Kft.

  (c) Discontinued Operations
   
      By selling Tele-Plusz Kft ("Tele-Plusz") and discontinuing the operations
      of TC Telecom Kft ("TC Telecom"), the Company discontinued one of its two
      business segments.

      On April 27, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its 60%
      interest in Tele-Plusz to an affiliate of the 40% interest holder for
      approximately $40,000 payable on May 11, 1995.  The agreement also
      provided for the repayment of the loan to Teleconstruct in 18 equal
      monthly installments beginning June 1, 1995.  As a result of the sale,
      Tele-Plusz's assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1994 and its
      operations for the year then ended were deconsolidated from the Company's
      financial statements.  Based on the financial condition of Tele-Plusz and
      since the payment of the sales price and repayment of the loan were
      conditional on Tele-Plusz being awarded a subcontract for the building of
      the Kelet-Nograd telephone exchange, Teleconstruct's loan receivable of
      $354,325 from Tele-Plusz was written off at December 31, 1994 and none of
      the sales price on the sale of the 60% interest was recognized in the
      financial statements.  Any proceeds realized in the future from the loan
      or the sale of the interest will be recognized upon receipt.

                      HUNGARIAN TELECONSTRUCT CORP.
             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)



      The Company will not be responsible for the payment of any obligations
      related to Tele-Plusz.  Accordingly, the Company's share of accumulated
      deficit in excess of its investment in Tele-Plusz was reflected as a gain
      on abandonment of discontinued operations at December 31, 1994. 

      During 1994, TC Telecom discontinued its operations and it was liquidated
      during 1995.  Substantially all of its revenues were earned from
      subsidiaries of HTCC.

 3. Interim Periods
   
    The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three months 
    ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 
    1995 are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all 
    adjustments, consisting mainly of normal recurring accruals necessary for
    fair presentation.  Results for the interim periods are not necessarily 
    indicative of the results for a full year.

 4. Incorporation by Reference

    Reference is made to the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
    fiscal year ended December 31, 1995 and to the notes to the consolidated
    financial statements included therein, which are incorporated herein by 
    reference.

 5. Concentration of Cash and Cash Equivalents

    At June 30, 1996, cash includes $22,089 denominated in U.S. dollars on 
    deposit with a major money center bank and $75,356 invested in a U.S. 
    Treasury Money Market Fund in the United States.  In addition, $89,820 
    (denominated partly in U.S. dollars and partly in Hungarian forints) was
    on deposit with Hungarian government-owned banks and a foreign bank in 
    Hungary.  

 6. Receivables from and Payables to Related Parties

    At June 30, 1996, receivables from and payables to related parties include
    the following:
                                        Receivables    Payables
   

        HTCC                              $32,874

        Officer/stockholder and affiliate                $13,319


    The amount due from HTCC primarily represents accrued interest on advances. 

    The amount due to the officer/stockholder and affiliate primarily represents
    non-interest bearing advances.

 7. Construction in Progress

     Construction-in-progress of $3,888,583 at June 30, 1996 includes the cost 
     of land ($885,000) and construction costs incurred in connection with the
     building for sale of two luxury 14-unit condominiums which are estimated to
     cost approximately an additional $700,000 to complete.  The condominiums 
     are expected to be completed during the second half of 1996.

 8. Investment in and Advances to Affiliate and Notes Receivable from Affiliate

    (a) Hungarian Broadcasting Corp.

        At June 30, 1996, the investment in and advances to HBC includes the
        following:

          Investment at equity            $221,000 

          Loans and advances               112,881 

                                          $333,881


        On November 28, 1994, the Company entered into a loan agreement with
        HBC, which provided for the Company to lend HBC $800,000 at 6% interest
        per annum, originally repayable on the earlier of December 31, 1995 or 
        the completion of an Initial Public Offering ("IPO") by HBC.  The IPO 
        was consummated in December 1995 by selling 1,150,000 shares of common
        stock at a price of $5 per share, with the Company recognizing a gain of
        approximately $203,000 resulting from the increase in the Company's
        proportionate share in HBC's equity.  The gain was accounted for as an
        equity transaction, increasing additional paid-in capital. 

        The loan agreement provided for the following additional consideration 
        to the Company: (1) issuance of 100,000 shares of HBC's common stock, 
        which shares shall be deemed fully paid and nonassessable; (2) an option
        which was exercised in April 1995, to purchase an additional 150,000 
        shares of HBC's common stock at $3 per share; and (3) three years 
        right of first reusal to act as general contractor for all broadcast
        facilities to be built by companies controlled by HBC.  On January 2,
        1996, HBC repaid $424,000 of the amount owed to the Company with the 
        balance being due June 30, 1997.  Notes receivable of $388,000 at 
        June 30, 1996 includes accrued  interest and is shown net of $52,000 
        original issue discount.

        The Company's 9.7% interest in HBC (250,000 shares of common stock) at
        June 30, 1996 has an original cost of $615,000 and includes the 100,000
        shares received in connection with the loan made to HBC and valued at
        $165,000 representing the original issue discount on the $800,000 loan. 
        The original issue discount is being amortized over the term of the loan
        with $26,000 amortized during the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
        included in interest income.

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)



      The 250,000 shares are restricted securities under Rule 144 promulgated
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  In addition, the Company
      has entered into an agreement with HBC's underwriters not to sell or
      otherwise dispose of the HBC shares before December 23, 1997 without the
      written consent of the underwriters.  The Company has the right to include
      the HBC shares in any registration statement filed by HBC to the extent
      that the managing underwriter of the public offering advises HBC that such
      inclusion would not interfere with the orderly sale of the securities to
      be offered to the public.

      At June 30, 1996, two officers of the Company own approximately 16% of the
      outstanding common stock of HBC and sit on the Board of HBC, constituting
      a majority of the Board.  The Company's 9.7% interest in HBC is carried at
      equity since the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence
      over HBC.  The quoted market price per share of HBC's common stock on the
      NASDAQ Small Cap Market at June 30, 1996 was $9.50.

   (b) Pilistav

       During 1993, the Company acquired a 7% interest in Pilistav, a
       community-sponsored telecommunication company which was unsuccessful in 
       its bids for concession rights to provide local public telephone service
       in its area. HTCC had previously acquired a 75.2% interest in Pilistav.

       The Company's interest in Pilistav was increased to 68% in September 1994
       when it invested $930,000 directly into Pilistav.  In March 1995, the
       Company agreed to sell its interest in Pilistav to HTCC for approximately
       $930,000.  Although the Company had a 68% interest in Pilistav at 
       December 31, 1994, the investment was carried at cost since the Company's
       control was considered temporary.  The sale to HTCC was consummated and 
       full payment was received by March 31, 1995.

 9. Private Placement

    In March 1993, the Company sold a private placement consisting of $1,150,000
    principal amount of unsecured promissory notes with interest at 6% and 
    230,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of 
    $1,150,000. 

    The private placement investors have the right to include their shares in 
    any registration statement filed by the Company after the IPO to the extent 
    that the managing underwriter of the public offering advises the Company 
    that such inclusion would not interfere with the orderly sale of the 
    securities to be publicly offered.

    The Company, in connection with the private placement, granted placement
    agent warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,700 shares of common stock 
    at an exercise price of 165% of the IPO price per share.  The holders of
    placement agent warrants have been granted certain rights to require the 
    Company, at the Company's expense, to register under the Securities Act 
    such private placement warrants and the underlying shares of common 
    stock.  In addition, the holders of placement agent warrants have "piggy 
    back" registration rights.

10. Capital Stock

    (a)  In connection with a public offering in July 1993, the Company granted
         warrants entitling the underwriters to purchase up to 62,000 shares of
         common stock during the four-year period commencing July 29, 1993 at an
         exercise price equal to 165% of the IPO price.

    (b)  In connection with a private placement in April 1994, the Company 
         granted placement agent warrants to purchase 25,000 shares at $10.75
         per share.

   (c)  On May 14, 1996, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to
        the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of
        authorized shares of common stock from 3,000,000 to 10,000,000.   

11. Stock Option Plan

    On May 14, 1996, the Company's stockholders approved an increase in the
    number of stock options available under the Stock Option Plan (the "Plan")
    to 350,000.  The Plan provides that incentive and nonqualified options may
    be granted to officers and directors and consultants to the Company.  The 
    Plan may be administered by either the Board of Directors or a committee of
    three directors appointed by the Board (the "Committee"). 

    Options granted under the Plan are exercisable for a period of up to ten 
    years from the date of grant.  Options terminate upon the optionee's 
    termination of employment or consulting arrangement with the Company, 
    except that, under certain circumstances, an optionee may exercise an 
    option within the three-month period after such termination of employment.
    An optionee may not transfer any options except that an option may be 
    exercised by the personal representative of a deceased optionee within 
    the three-month period following the optionee's death.  Incentive options
    granted to any employee who owns more than 10% of the Company's outstanding
    common stock immediately before the grant must have an exercise price of not
    less than 110% of the fair market value of all underlying stock on the date 
    of the grant and the exercise term may not exceed five years.  The aggregate
    fair market value of common stock (determined at the date of grant) for 
    which any employee may exercise incentive options in the first calendar 
    year may not exceed $100,000.  In addition, the Company will not grant a 
    nonqualified option with an exercise price less than 85% of the fair 
    market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

   Effective July 29, 1993, the Company granted to three directors 15,000
   incentive stock options exercisable at $8 per share, the IPO price; 5,000 of
   these options were terminated in 1994.  In February 1994, three employees in
   Hungary were granted 20,000 incentive stock options exercisable at $10 per
   share, provided they remain in the employ of the Company until December 31,
   1994.  In May 1994, 460,000 options exercisable at $1 per share were granted
   to three officers in connection with their employment agreements (see Note
   12(a)).  In June 1994, the officers and directors of the Company were granted
   65,000 incentive stock options exercisable at $8 per share, market value on
   the date of grant.  On March 7, 1996, the exercise price of the 75,000 
   options granted under the Plan was reduced from $8 to $3.375, which was the 
   market price at that date.

   The following table is a summary of all stock options as of June 30, 1996:

    As of June 30, 1996, all stock options were exercisable.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

    (a) Employment Agreements

        Effective May 1, 1994, the Company entered into three-year employment
        agreements with the three officers and terminated the existing 
        consulting and retainer agreement with them.  The agreements were 
        extended by two additional years on October 23, 1995.  The agreements
        provided for aggregate annual compensation of $336,000 for the Chairman
        of the Board, President and Secretary/Treasurer of the Company, and the
        granting of options to the three officers to purchase 460,000 shares of 
        common stock of the Company at the exercise price of $1 per share with 
        vesting over a five-year period (20% per year).

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)


      Compensation expense, the difference between the quoted market price at
      the date of grant and the option price, of $5,980,000 in connection with
      the granting of the 460,000 stock options was being amortized over the
      five-year vesting period which began May 1, 1994.  For the six months
      ended June 30, 1995, $598,000 of compensation expense was recorded in
      connection with the above stock options.  On October 23, 1995, the Board
      of Directors voted to replace the original vesting period with immediate
      vesting and, accordingly, the remaining balance of $4,285,667 of deferred
      compensation at that date was charged to operations during the quarter
      ended December 31, 1995.  

      In addition to the above compensation, the Company also paid legal fees of
      $25,000 and $15,000 to the Secretary/Treasurer for the six months ended
      June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
   
   (b)  Leases

      In August 1993, HTCC entered into a three-year lease in New York City, for
      office space at a minimum annual rental of $21,375, plus electricity, and
      which provides for rent escalation based on certain cost increases.  The
      Company entered into a sharing agreement as of August 1993 with HTCC
      pursuant to which it agreed to share the costs for rent and electricity
      equally with HTCC.  Both companies vacated the premises effective April 1,
      1996;  the Company moved its offices to those of its counsel, Cohen &
      Cohen, 445 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10022.  Cohen & Cohen agreed to
      supply offices when needed and office services to the Company without
      charge.

      The Company entered into a lease for office space in Vienna, Austria which
      provides for minimum annual rental payments of approximately $33,000
      through September 1997.

13.   Related Party Transactions

   (a)  Revenues

      For the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, revenues earned from
      subsidiaries of HTCC amounted to approximately $10,500 and $71,000,
      respectively.  These amounts include rental income of approximately $3,500
      per month from the rental of an office condominium in Budapest, Hungary on
      a month-to-month basis until the building was sold to HTCC during the
      second quarter of 1996.

   (b)  Sale of Condominium Units

      In January 1996, an entity wholly owned by the Company's President
      acquired three condominium apartment units and three garage spaces being
      built by the Company for $394,320.  The purchase price was approximately
      61% of the current offering price to the public and approximately 86% of
      the currently expected cost.  The purchase price was satisfied by
      offsetting amounts due to the President for an amount paid by him in
      January 1996, on behalf of the Company.

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)


      HTCC is in the process of purchasing one of the condominium apartment
      units being built by the Company for $250,000, which approximates the
      offering price to the public.  HTCC has paid deposits amounting to
      $200,000.

      During the second quarter of 1996, HTCC purchased from Teleconstruct the
      ownership of the premises used as offices by HTCC and its subsidiary, HTCC
      Consulting Rt, in Budapest, for $315,000, which approximated the Company's
      cost.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
           Results of Operations

Operations

The Company was organized on November 9, 1992.  Through its wholly-owned
Hungarian subsidiary, Teleconstruct Epitesi RT. ("Teleconstruct") the Company is
constructing in Budapest, Hungary, two apartment buildings with 14 apartments 
in each, which the Company intends to sell as condominiums.

The Company was in the development stage through December 31, 1993 and has
been unprofitable to date.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company incurred a net loss of
$786,985 after interest and dividend income of $41,660.  The net loss for the
six months ended June 30, 1995 amounted to $997,836 after interest and dividend
income of $213,186.  The decrease in revenues from 1995 related primarily to a 
decrease in construction revenue since all construction revenue was earned by 
the Company's 90% owned subsidiary, Termolang Kft, which was sold effective 
September 30, 1995.

The equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliate of $182,000 for the six 
months ended June 30, 1996 represents the Company's share of HBC's loss.  The
Company's 9.7% interest in HBC is carried at equity since the Company has the
ability to exercise significant influence over HBC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In March 1993, the Company received $964,000 in net proceeds from a private
placement of Common Stock.  The Company provided $588,250 to establish
Teleconstruct and $31,770 to establish Termolang and it retained the remaining
proceeds for operating funds. 

In August 1993, the Company received $6,565,395 in net proceeds from a public
offering for the sale of 977,500 shares of its Common Stock at $8 per share.

In January 1994, the Company purchased for approximately $885,000 a 60,000
sq. foot parcel of undeveloped land in Hungary and is building two structures,
each one consisting of 14 units on this land.  The Company intends to sell the
28 units as apartments with underground parking facilities, upon completion 
during 1996.

In April 1994, the Company received $1,767,004 in net proceeds from a private
placement of 180,790 shares of its Common Stock.  The Company used these
proceeds in connection with its construction activities.

Although the Company has incurred substantial losses in each fiscal year since
inception, and requires an estimated $700,000 to complete the two condominium
buildings it is currently constructing, the Company believes that it will 
generate sufficient working capital for it to remain a going concern.  The 
Company intends to finance its construction requirements through advance 
deposits from the selling of units.  Currently, one apartment has been sold
to HTCC, an affiliate, for $250,000.  During the second quarter of 1996, HTCC
purchased from Teleconstruct the ownership of the premises used as offices by
HTCC and its subsidiary HTCC Consulting Rt, in Budapest, for $315,000, which 
approximated the Company's cost. 


<PAGE>




The Company is also currently negotiating for a line of credit with a bank in 
the event additional apartments are not sold fast enough to provide the required
funds to complete the buildings.
 
Inflation and Seasonality

The rate of inflation in Hungary was 28% in 1995 as compared to 18% for 1994
and 23% for 1993.  Prices have been rising rapidly in recent years mainly 
because of reduction or removal of subsidies and price controls, not because
of expansionist monetary policies.  Since the Company uses the U.S. dollar as
the functional currency for its Hungarian subsidiaries, the Hungarian inflation
does not have a material effect on financial condition and results of 
operations.

The Company believes that its construction operations will be seasonal in that
construction operations take place from March through November rather than
from December through February when the winter weather deters construction.

          corporation, declaring said amendment to be advisable and calling
