NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
International FiberCom, Inc. ("IFCI" or the "Company"), a C Corporation
incorporated in Arizona on December 29, 1972, is an end-to-end, independent
solutions provider serving the telecommunications industry. The Company delivers
a broad range of solutions designed to enable, enhance and support voice, data

its customers through broadband, including fiber-optic and copper, and wireless
connectivity solutions. The Company develops, manufactures and sells proprietary
wireless communications equipment. The Company also resells new, deinstalled and
refurbished communications equipment from a variety of manufacturers. The
Company delivers its products and services through three operating segments:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to
present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2000 and the results of its
operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000. Although
management believes that the disclosures in these financial statements are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities Exchange Commission.
The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the

statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed financial
statements, and the related footnotes thereto, filed with the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

the merger with Premier Cable Communications, Inc. ("Premier"), accounted for as
a pooling-of-interests.

Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany amounts and
transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE 3 - OPERATING LINE OF CREDIT:
In March 2000, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit
Agreement (the "Agreement") with a syndication of commercial banks. Under the
terms of the Agreement, the Company may borrow up to $100,000,000 (plus
$10,000,000 in stand-by letters of credit, of which $0 were issued as of June
30, 2000) and the borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR plus 175 to 250 basis
points or the prime rate plus 25 to 100 basis points, determined based on
certain financial covenants, at the discretion of the Company. The Company has
an option, subject to certain conditions, to increase the maximum borrowings to
$150,000,000. As of June 30, 2000, total line of credit borrowings were
$65,237,986. The Agreement requires monthly payments of interest and it matures
in March 2003. Borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Company's
assets and the Company is required to pay an annual commitment fee equal to
0.375% to 0.5%, determined based on certain financial covenants, of the unused
portion of the line of credit. The Agreement places certain business, financial
and operating restrictions on the Company relating to, among other things, the
incurrence of additional indebtedness, acquisitions, asset sales, mergers,
dividends, distributions and repurchases and redemption of capital stock. The
Agreement also requires that specified financial ratios and balances be
maintained. As of June 30, 2000, the Company was in compliance with these
covenants.
In connection with the Agreement, the borrowing limit under the Company's
equipment lease line of credit was increased from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000.
NOTE 4 - ACQUISITIONS:
Pooling-of-Interests Acquisitions
On June 1, 2000, the Company consummated a business combination with Premier
which included the exchange of 865,963 shares of International Fibercom, Inc.
common stock for all outstanding shares of Premier. In connection with the
business combination with Premier, the Company incurred transaction-related
costs of $1,380,286, which were charged to operations.
Purchase Acquisitions
During 1998 and 1999, the Company acquired Kleven Communications - CA, Inc.
("Kleven - CA"), All Star Telecom, Inc. ("All Star") and Blue Ridge Solutions
("Blue Ridge") and accounted for the acquisitions using the purchase method of
accounting. Their respective purchase agreements included provisions for
contingent consideration that is payable if certain financial targets are met
over a three-year period. Certain financial targets specified in the purchase
agreements were achieved by Kleven - CA, All Star and Blue Ridge through June
30, 2000 and the Company therefore, during the six months ended June 30, 2000,
issued 175,636 shares of IFCI Common Stock, valued at $3,510,579, and paid
$1,088,546 in cash, to the former owners of All Star and Blue Ridge, issued
254,205 shares of IFCI common stock, valued at $3,257,002 into an escrow account
for future issuance to the former owners of All Star and accrued $1,100,000 of
consideration to be paid to the former owner of Kleven - CA in July 2000. The
total consideration was recorded as additional goodwill.
During the first quarter of 2000, the Company acquired Beecroft Trenching, Inc.
("Beecroft") in exchange for 161,623 shares of IFCI common stock, valued at
$3,841,576, and $4,436,425 in cash. The Company accounted for the acquisition of

NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
Stock Option and Warrant Income Tax Benefit
During the six months ended June 30, 2000, certain employees and non-employees
of the Company exercised incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options
and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company. The exercise of
in-the-money non-qualified stock options and warrants, as well as the
disqualifying disposition of in-the-money incentive stock options, results in
ordinary income to the individual and a corresponding income tax deduction for
the Company. The total benefit to be recognized by the Company resulting from
these exercises and sales of stock options and warrants during the six months
ended June 30, 2000 is $10,150,000. This amount has been recorded on the balance
sheet as income tax receivable and additional paid-in-capital.
Computation of Earnings Per Share

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
GENERAL
We are an end-to-end, independent solutions provider serving the
telecommunications industry. We deliver a broad range of solutions designed to
enable, enhance and support voice, data and video communications through wired
and wireless networks operating inside and outside buildings - internal and
external networks. In delivering these solutions, we design, develop, install
and maintain networks that support Internet-related and other communications
applications and services for our customers through broadband, including
fiber-optic, copper, and wireless connectivity solutions. We develop,
manufacture and sell proprietary wireless communications equipment. We also
resell new, deinstalled and refurbished communications equipment from a variety
of manufacturers.
We have grown significantly since 1997 as a result of internal growth and
strategic acquisitions. Consolidated revenues since 1997 have grown at an
average annual rate of 60%. We deliver our products and services through three
operating segments:
* Infrastructure Development;
* Wireless Technologies; and
* Equipment Distribution.
We derive a substantial portion of our revenue through contracts accounted for
under the percentage of completion method whereby revenue is recognized based on
the ratio of contract costs incurred to total estimated contract costs. As a
result, gross margins can increase or decrease based upon changes in cost and
revenue estimates during individual contract periods.
During the first quarter of 2000, we acquired Beecroft Trenching, Inc.
("Beecroft") in exchange for 161,623 shares of IFCI common stock, valued at
$3,841,979, and $4,436,425 in cash. The acquisition of Beecroft was accounted
for using the purchase method of accounting.
During the second quarter of 2000, we acquired New York Antenna, Inc. ("NYA") in
exchange for 151,557 shares of IFCI common stock, valued at $2,191,412, and
$2,105,475 in cash. We accounted for the acquisition of NYA using the purchase
method of accounting.
During the second quarter of 2000, we consummated a business combination with
Premier Cable Communications, Inc. ("Premier") which included the exchange of
865,963 shares of IFCI common stock for all outstanding shares of Premier. The
business combination with Premier was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests
and we incurred transaction-related costs of $1,380,286, which were charged to
operations. IFCI's consolidated financial statements have been restated to
reflect the business combination with Premier.
In March 2000, we entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit
Agreement (the "Agreement") with a syndication of commercial banks. Under the
terms of the Agreement, we may borrow up to $100 million (including $10 million
in stand-by letters of credit), an increase from the original borrowing limit of
$60 million under the original Revolving Credit Agreement.. We have an option,
subject to certain conditions, to increase the maximum borrowings to
$150,000,000. Our borrowings under the Agreement bear interest at either LIBOR
plus 175 to 250 basis points or the prime rate plus 25 to 100 basis points,
determined based on certain financial covenants, at our discretion. In
connection with the Agreement, the borrowing limit under our equipment lease
line of credit was increased from $10 million to $15 million.

</TABLE>
REVENUES. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased $30.7
million, or 68.5%, to $75.6 million from $44.9 million for the same period in
1999. This increase was comprised of revenue growth of $29.2 million in the
infrastructure development segment, $1.0 million in the equipment distribution
segment and $573,000 in the wireless technologies segment.
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $63.1 million, or
82.4%, to $139.7 million for the same period in 1999. This increase was
comprised of revenue growth of $62.9 million in the infrastructure development
segment, $203,000 in the wireless segment and relatively no change in the
equipment distribution segment.
The revenue increase for the infrastructure development segment for the three
months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999, consisted of
$8.6 million of revenues generated from subsidiaries acquired subsequent to June
30, 1999 and $20.6 million of revenues generated from internal increases in
contract activity resulting from increased demand for infrastructure development
services. The revenue increase for the infrastructure development segment for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999,
consisted of $27.4 million of revenues generated from subsidiaries acquired
subsequent to March 31, 1999 and $35.5 million of revenues generated from
internal increases in contract activity resulting from increased demand for
infrastructure development services.
The increase in revenues for the equipment distribution segment for the three
months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999, was primarily
the result of expanding its product line.
The increase in revenues for the wireless technologies segment for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same periods in 1999, was
primarily the result of an increase in services performed for new and existing
customers.
GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased
$11.2 million, or 103.6%, to $22.0 million from $10.8 million for the same
period in 1999. This increase was comprised of gross margin growth of $11.1
million in the infrastructure development segment and $168,000 in the wireless
technologies segment, offset by a gross margin decline of $62,000 in the
equipment distribution segment.
Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $21.0 million, or
105.9%, to $40.9 million from $19.9 million for the same period in 1999. This
increase was comprised of
13
<PAGE>
gross margin growth of $21.6 million in the infrastructure development segment,
offset by gross margin decreases of $466,000 in the equipment distribution
segment and $132,000 in the wireless technologies segment.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased to 29.1% for the three months
ended June 30, 2000, from 24.1% for the same period in 1999. Gross margin as a
percentage of revenues for the infrastructure development was 28.8% for the
three months ended June 30, 2000, from 21.3% for the same period in 1999. Gross
margin as a percentage of revenues for the equipment distribution segment was
29.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from 34.0% for the same period
in 1999. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues for the wireless technologies
segment was 39.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from 48.8% for the
same period in 1999.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased to 29.3% for the six months
ended June 30, 2000, from 25.9% for the same period in 1999. Gross margin as a
percentage of revenues for the infrastructure development was 29.0% for the six
months ended June 30, 2000, from 23.2% for the same period in 1999. Gross margin
as a percentage of revenues for the equipment distribution segment was 30.6% for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, from 33.5% for the same period in 1999.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenues for the wireless technologies segment
was 39.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, from 53.5% for the same period
in 1999.
Gross margin increased for the infrastructure development group, both in total
and as a percentage of revenues, primarily due to obtaining larger contracts
that resulted in improved production efficiencies and more favorable terms on
new contracts. Additionally, gross margin in total increased for the
infrastructure development group as a result of newly acquired companies. For
the three months ended June 30, 2000, $3.4 million of the gross margin increase
for the infrastructure development segment resulted from subsidiaries acquired
subsequent to June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, $8.8
million of the gross margin increase for the infrastructure development segment
resulted from subsidiaries acquired subsequent to March 31, 1999.
Gross margin decreased for the equipment distribution segment, both in total and
as a percentage of revenues, due to changes in the mix and cost basis of
inventory sold.
Gross margin increased in total for the wireless technologies segment due to an
increase in the volume of service work performed. Gross margin as a percentage
of revenues declined for the wireless technologies segment due the volume
increase being comprised of additional services work, which generally has a
lower gross margin percentage than product sales, and the Company concentrating
more of its efforts on the research and development of new technologies.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 increased $6.5 million, or 106.0%, to $12.6 million
from $6.1 million for the same period in 1999. General and administrative
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $13.5 million, or
122.2%, to $24.5 million from $11.0 million for the same period in 1999. The
increases were primarily due to incremental costs associated with acquisitions
made during the past 12 months, as well as internal growth of existing
subsidiaries and management additions made during the past 12 months to support
our continued growth. General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of
revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were 16.7%, compared to 13.7%
for the same period in the prior year. General and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were 17.6%,
compared to 14.4% for the same period in the prior year. These increases as a
percentage of revenues were due to our adding personnel and creating separate
geographical management teams to support future growth.
INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Interest expense and other income
(expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased $1.1 million, or
145.2%, to $1.8 million from $754,000 for the same period in 1999. Interest
expense and other income (expense) increased $1.9 million, or 131.3%, to $3.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, from $1.4 million for the same
period in 1999. The increases are primarily due to interest expense on our
credit facilities. Borrowing activity has increased significantly during the
past 12 months due to the acquisition of several subsidiaries through purchase
agreements consisting of all cash or cash and common stock terms as well as the
acquisition of operating equipment to support revenue growth in the
infrastructure development segment.
14
<PAGE>
NON-RECURRING ACQUISITION-RELATED EXPENSES. Non-recurring acquisition-related
expenses totaled $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000
and consisted of expenses incurred to consummate the acquisition of Premier,
which was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. There were no acquisitions
accounted for as pooling-of-interests in 1999.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. Income taxes for the three months ended June 30,
2000 increased $1.2 million, or 74.7%, to $2.7 million from $1.5 million for the
same period in 1999. Income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2000
increased $1.7 million, or 56.5%, to $4.7 million from $3.0 million for the same
period in 1999. The provision for income taxes increased due to higher taxable
earnings for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, compared
to the same periods in 1999. Excluding the impact of non-recurring acquisition
related expenses, which are not deductible for tax purposes, the effective tax
rate declined to 36.0% for both the three and six months periods ended June 30,
2000, from 39.5% for the three month period ended June 30, 1999 and 40.2% for
the six month period ended June 30, 1999. This decline in the effective tax rate
is the result of us generating a more proportionate share of income in states
with lower tax rates and the effect of research and development tax credits
generated in 2000.
NET INCOME. Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months
ended June 30, 2000 increased $1.0 million, or 44.8%, to $3.4 million from $2.4
million for the same period in 1999. Net income attributable to common
stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $2.6 million, or
59.1%, to $7.0 million from $4.4 million for the same period in 1999. The
increase was the result of higher gross margins, offset by increases in general
and administrative expenses, other expenses, non-recurring acquisition-related
expenses and provision for income taxes.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our capital needs relate primarily to equipment needed to support revenue growth
and to provide working capital for general corporate purposes, including
strategic acquisitions. We have historically financed operations through a
combination of operating cash flow, lines of credit, and debt and equity
offerings. Our liquidity is impacted, to a large degree, by the nature of
billing provisions under our installation and service contracts. Generally, in
the early periods of contracts, cash expenditures and accrued profits are
greater than allowed billings, while contract completion results in billing
previously unbilled costs and related accrued profits.
For the first six months of 2000, net cash provided by operations totaled $2.4
million as compared to cash used in operations of $7.0 million for the same
period in the prior year. Cash generated from operations during the period
totaled $13.6 million consisting of net income of $7.0 million, depreciation and
amortization of $5.4 million, non-recurring acquisition-related expenses paid in
stock totaling $1.0 million and $200,000 of other items. Operating assets and
liabilities decreased operating cash flow $11.2 million, primarily due to and
increases in accounts receivable, inventory, other assets and costs and
estimated earnings in excess of billings, offset by decreases in accounts
payable, accrued expenses and income taxes payable.
During the first six months of 2000, we used $20.1 million in investing
activities which consisted primarily of net equipment purchases totaling $11.4
million and cash used in business acquisitions totaling $8.7 million. For the
first six months of 2000, financing activities generated $26.3 million which
consisted primarily of net borrowings under our credit facilities totaling $19.5
million, $9.9 million in proceeds from warrant and stock option exercises and
$1.6 million in proceeds from common stock purchased under the ESPP, offset by
$3.9 million of net repayments of notes payable and capital lease obligations,
and $751,000 of debt issuance costs paid.
As of June 30, 2000, we had a revolving line of credit with a syndication of
commercial banks totaling $100 million (with an option, under certain
conditions, to raise the total borrowings available to $150,000,000), with an
available balance of approximately $34.8 million. Additionally, we had a $15
million lease line of credit, with an available balance of approximately $5.5
million. Aggregate proceeds from current working capital, funds generated
through operations and current availability under existing credit facilities are
considered sufficient to fund the anticipated growth in our operations for the
next 12 to 18 months. We
15
<PAGE>
may, however, seek to obtain additional capital through additional debt or
equity offerings depending upon prevailing market conditions and the demand for
our products and services.
INFLATION AND SEASONALITY.
We do not believe that we are significantly impacted by inflation or
seasonality.
