1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
NTL (Triangle) LLC (formerly NTL (Bermuda) Limited) (the "Company") have
been prepared in accordance with U.S. 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 six and three months ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement, which establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging activities,
is required to be adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2001. Upon
the adoption of SFAS No. 133, all derivative instruments are required to be
recognized in the statement of financial position as either assets or
liabilities and measured at fair value. The Company is evaluating the
impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have on its financial
position and results of operations.
2. Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000
and 1999 was (UK Pound)61,433,000, (UK Pound)36,773,000, (UK Pound)
39,986,000 and (UK Pound)17,398,000, respectively.
3. Amalgamation with NTL
On October 29, 1998, NTL Incorporated ("NTL"), NTL (Bermuda) Limited, a
wholly owned subsidiary of NTL, and Comcast UK Cable Partners Limited
("Partners") consummated a transaction (the "Amalgamation"), whereby NTL
(Bermuda) Limited merged with Partners.
Pursuant to then existing arrangements between Partners and Telewest
Communications plc ("Telewest"), a co-owner of interests in Cable London
PLC ("Cable London") and Birmingham Cable Corporation Limited ("Birmingham
Cable"), Telewest had certain rights to acquire either or both of Partner's
interests in these systems as a result of the Amalgamation. On August 14,
1998, Partners and NTL entered into an agreement (the "Telewest Agreement")
with Telewest relating to Partner's ownership interests in Birmingham
Cable, Partner's and Telewest's respective ownership interests in Cable
London and certain other related matters. Pursuant to the Telewest
Agreement, in October 1998, Partners sold its 27.5% ownership interest in
Birmingham Cable to Telewest for (UK Pound)125 million, plus (UK Pound)5
million for certain subordinated debt and fees. Additionally, in November
1999, the Company sold its 50% ownership interest in Cable London to
Telewest for (UK Pound)428 million in cash.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONCLUDED
(Unaudited)
In July 1999, NTL Communications Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL,
acquired Cablelink Limited ("Cablelink") for IR (Pound) 535.18 million ((UK
Pound) 426.5 million). NTL Communications Corp. accounted for the
acquisition as a purchase. In December 1999, the Company acquired Cablelink
from NTL Communications Corp. for (UK Pound)423.6 million in cash. The
Company accounted for the acquisition at historical cost in a manner
consistent with a transfer of entities under common control, which is
similar to that used in a "pooling of interests." Accordingly, the net
assets and results of operations of Cablelink have been included in the
consolidated financial statements from July 1999.
The pro forma unaudited consolidated results of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 assuming the consummation of the above mentioned
transaction as of January 1, 1999 is as follows (in (UK Pound)000's):
Total revenue............................ (UK Pound)66,180
Net loss................................. (53,429)
7. Joint Purchasing Alliance Agreement
Other assets includes a deposit of (UK Pound)32.3 million which will be
utilized under a Joint Purchasing Alliance Agreement entered into between
subsidiaries of the Company and Diamond Cable Communications plc, a
subsidiary of NTL, for combined fixed asset purchases. The Company's
original deposit was (UK Pound)51.9 million in March 1999.
8. Related Party Transactions
Since the Amalgamation, a subsidiary of NTL Communications Corp. has been
providing management, financial, legal and technical services to the
Company. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 1999, this subsidiary began
charging the Company for these services using an allocation formula based
on customers. The Company was charged (UK Pound)6.5 million and (UK
Pound)3.7 million for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000, which
is included in selling, general and administrative expenses and in the due
to affiliates balance. It is not practicable to determine the amounts of
these expenses that would have been incurred had the Company operated as an
unaffiliated entity. In the opinion of management of the Company, the
allocation method is reasonable.
9. Contingencies
The Company is involved in legal proceedings and claims which arise in the
ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the amount
of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially
affect the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the
Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
---------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Overview
--------
NTL (Triangle) LLC (formerly NTL (Bermuda) Limited) (the "Company") is a holding
company which holds all of the shares of various companies principally engaged
in the development, construction, management and operation of broadband
communications networks for telephone, cable television and Internet services in
the United Kingdom ("UK") and Ireland. The Company owns the companies that have
franchises for Darlington and Teesside (collectively, "Teesside") and Cambridge
Holding Company Limited ("Cambridge") in the UK, and Cablelink Limited
("Cablelink"), which owns the companies that provide services in Dublin, Galway
and Waterford, Ireland. The Company previously owned a 50% interest in Cable
London PLC ("Cable London") which it sold in November 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
In November 1995, the Company issued $517.3 million principal amount at maturity
of 11.20% Senior Discount Debentures due 2007 (the "2007 Discount Debentures").
Interest accretes on the 2007 Discount Debentures at 11.20% per annum compounded
semiannually from November 15, 1995 to November 15, 2000, after which date
interest will be paid in cash on each May 15 and November 15 through November
15, 2007. The 2007 Discount Debentures contain restrictive covenants which limit
the Company's ability to pay dividends.
The Company currently estimates that it will require approximately (UK
Pound)74.3 million from July 1, 2000 through June 30, 2001 for capital
expenditures and debt service, net of cash from operations. Management believes
that the (UK Pound)74.3 million required will be funded through cash on hand,
debt or equity from NTL or its subsidiaries and from the Joint Purchasing
Alliance Agreement deposit of (UK Pound)32.3 million. Subsidiaries of the
Company and Diamond Cable Communications plc, a subsidiary of NTL, entered into
this agreement in 1999 for joint fixed asset purchases. The Company's ability to
meet its long-term liquidity and capital requirements is contingent upon
Cambridge, Teesside and Cablelink's ability to generate positive operating cash
flow, or, if necessary, to obtain external financing, although there can be no
assurance that any such financing will be obtained on acceptable terms and
conditions.
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
-----------------------------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to (UK Pound)29.2 million and
(UK Pound)16.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities is due
to the increase in the Company's operating income before depreciation and
amortization and changes in working capital as a result of the timing of
receipts and disbursements.
Net cash used in investing activities amounted to (UK Pound)14.0 million and (UK
Pound)80.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, net cash used in
investing activities includes capital expenditures of (UK Pound)14.1 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 1999, net cash used in investing activities
includes the Joint Purchasing Alliance Agreement deposit of (UK Pound)51.9
million for combined purchases of fixed assets by NTL affiliates and capital
expenditures of (UK Pound)28.2 million.
Net cash used in financing activities amounted to (UK Pound)915,000 and (UK
Pound)1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
primarily for debt principal payments.

Results of Operations
---------------------
In December 1999, Cablelink was acquired by the Company from NTL Communications
Corp. This transaction was accounted for at historical cost in a manner
consistent with a transfer of entities under common control, which is similar to
that used in a "pooling of interests." Accordingly, the Company consolidated the
results of operations of Cablelink from July 1999.
Summarized consolidated financial information for the Company for the six and
three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 is as follows (in thousands, "NM"

</TABLE>
Substantially all of the increases in revenues, operating expenses, selling,
general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expense
for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the same
periods in 1999, are attributable to the effects of the acquisition of
Cablelink, as well as the continued development of the Company's operations and
increased business activity resulting from the growth in the number of
subscribers in Cambridge and Teesside. These trends in operations and business
activity are expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
Interest expense for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was
(UK Pound)17.0 million, (UK Pound)15.5 million, (UK Pound)8.8 million and (UK
Pound)7.9 million, respectively, representing increases of (UK Pound)1.4 million
and (UK Pound)950,000, respectively, from 1999 as

compared to the same periods in 2000. The increases are primarily attributable
to the compounding of interest on the 2007 Discount Debentures, partially offset
by the payment of the note payable to Comcast U.K. Holdings, Inc. in September
1999.
Investment income for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was
(UK Pound)798,000, (UK Pound)2.7 million, (UK Pound)467,000 and (UK
Pound)976,000, respectively, representing decreases of (UK Pound)1.9 million and
(UK Pound)509,000, respectively, from 1999 as compared to the same periods in
2000. The decreases are primarily attributable to the termination of the loans
to Cable London in November 1999 and to decreases in the average cash balances
available for investment in 2000 as compared to the same periods in 1999.
Equity in net loss of affiliate for the six and three months ended June 30, 1999
of (UK Pound)4.0 million and (UK Pound)1.9 million, respectively, was from the
Company's 50% ownership interest in Cable London.
The Company incurred costs of (UK Pound)145,000 in the first quarter of 1999
associated with the amalgamation with NTL.
Exchange losses and other for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 were (UK Pound)22.5 million, (UK Pound)13.7 million, (UK Pound)15.8 million
and (UK Pound)6.0 million, respectively, representing increases of (UK Pound)8.7
million and (UK Pound)9.8 million, respectively, from 1999 as compared to the
same periods in 2000. The increases primarily resulted from the impact of
fluctuations in the valuation of the UK Pound Sterling on the 2007 Discount
Debentures, which are denominated in US dollars. The Company's results of
operations will continue to be affected by exchange rate fluctuations.
