                  UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     On July 22, 1997, Telscape International, Inc. (the "Company"), through
two wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired all of the outstanding shares of
Integracion de Redes, S.A. de C.V. ("Integracion") and Lan and Wan, S.A. de
C.V. ("Lan") (collectively, hereinafter "Integracion"), both Mexican
corporations based in Mexico City. Integracion distributes data and network
integration equipment in Mexico and represents such manufacturers as
Northern Telecom, 3Com, and Cisco and also provides the value-added service
of systems integration. The acquisition is effective July 1, 1997. Under the
terms of the acquisition, the Company paid the following: i) the sum of
$130,000 in cash, ii) an aggregate of $2,201,000 in non-interest bearing
promissory notes maturing January 1, 2001 ("Promissory Notes"), iii) an
aggregate of $999,000 in non-interest bearing convertible notes
("Convertible Notes") maturing on September 1, 1999, which are convertible
into 333,000 shares of common stock ("Common Stock") of the Company,
iv) warrants for the purchase of up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock based
on Integracion meeting certain performance requirements ("Warrants") and
v) a covenant by the Company to pay $280,000 in the event that Integracion
meets certain performance requirements over the cumulative periods beginning
January 1, 1997 and ending December 31, 2000 ("Additional Payment"). 
In connection with this acquisition, the Company entered into customary
employment and non-compete agreements with certain employees of Integracion.
The consideration paid by the Company for Integracion has been determined by
negotiations between the parties. The $130,000 paid at closing was funded out
of working capital. The acquisition will be accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.
     
     The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet at
June 30, 1997 was prepared by combining the unaudited balance sheets of the
Company and Integracion as of June 30, 1997 and reflects the acquisition of
Integracion as if such acquisition had occurred on June 30, 1997.  The
accompanying unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996 present the
financial position and results of the Company's operations as if the
acquisition of Integracion had occurred at the beginning of each of the
respective periods.

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements
have been prepared based upon certain assumptions and include adjustments as
detailed in the notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
statements. The estimated fair market values reflected in the unaudited pro
forma consolidated financial statements are based on preliminary estimates
and assumptions and are subject to revision as more information becomes
available. In management's opinion, the preliminary allocation reflected
herein is not expected to be materially different from the final allocation.

     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of
the Company and the notes related thereto as included in the Company's Form
10-QSB and Form 10-KSB as of June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively. Such pro forma information is based on historical data with
respect to the Company and Integracion. The pro forma is not necessarily
indicative of the results that might have occurred had such transactions
actually taken place at the beginning of the period specified and is not
intended to be a projection of future results. The pro forma information
presented herein is provided to comply with the requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The pro forma information does not
reflect any adjustments to reflect the manner in which the acquired entity
is being or will be operated under the control of the Company and,
therefore, does not reflect any adjustments to profitability, either
negative or positive, which may have resulted from the Company managing
Integracion for the periods presented.

                TELSCAPE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
     NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                      
1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the
year ended December 31, 1996 was prepared by combining the following:

     -  the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations of the
        Company, including two  acquisitions completed during the fiscal year
        ended December 31, 1996 ("Note 2"),
     -  the audited consolidated statement of operations of Integracion for the
        fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

     The acquisition of Integracion has been accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting.

     The pro forma consolidated financial statements do not purport to be
indicative of the financial position of the Company or the results of
operations that might have occurred, had the acquisition been consummated on
January 1, 1996, or on January 1, 1997, nor are they indicative of future
results.

2.   ACQUISITIONS PRIOR TO DECEMBER 31, 1996
     
     Statement of Operations:
     
     On May 17, 1996, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
shares of Telereunion, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Telereunion").  The
acquisition was completed by means of a merger between Telereunion and a
newly formed subsidiary of the Company.  Upon consummation of the merger,
the subsidiary changed its name to Telereunion, Inc.  Telereunion's
operations are conducted through Vextro de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. ("Vextro"),
its 97%-owned subsidiary organized and operating under the laws of the
Republic of Mexico.
     
     The unaudited pro forma statement of operations of the Company for the
year ended December 31, 1996, was adjusted to include the acquisition of
Telereunion/Vextro as if it had occurred on January 1, 1996.
     
     On September 5, 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
common stock of Orion Communications ("Orion"), in exchange for 400,000
shares of its common stock.  This transaction was accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method and accordingly, the unaudited pro forma
statement of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1996,
includes the results of the operations of Orion since its inception on April
10, 1996.  As a result, no pro forma adjustment was necessary.
     
     The pro forma consolidated statement of operations of the Company ("Pro
Forma Telscape") incorporates the following pro forma assumptions:
          
     (a)  The adjustment to reflect the subsequent reclassification of amounts
          due to Telereunion from one of its stockholders for expenses incurred
          in connection with the proposed merger to administrative expense of
          Vextro.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>


     (b)  The amortization of goodwill relating to the acquisition has been
          included in the pro forma consolidated statement of operations from
          January 1, 1996.
     (c)  The adjustment to reflect the three percent minority ownership in
          Vextro.
     
     Balance Sheet:
     
     The historical consolidated balance sheet for the Company includes the
balance sheets of Telereunion and Orion as of June 30, 1997 and, therefore,
a separate balance sheet was not included.
     
3.   ACQUISITION SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1996

     Effective July 1, 1997, the Company acquired 100% of the common stock
of Integracion.  Integracion was organized and operates under the laws of the
Republic of Mexico.  The acquisition of Integracion has been accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting.  The purchase price of the acquisition
has been calculated as follows:

                                          NOTE      FAIR VALUE
     Cash                                         $   130,000
     Promissory Notes                     3a        1,758,806
     Convertible Notes                    3a          796,595
     Warrants                             3b                0
     Transaction Costs                                 57,750
                                                    2,743,151
     Fair value of net assets acquired    3c        1,088,701
     Goodwill                                     $ 1,654,450

     (a)  The present value of the non-interest bearing Promissory Notes 
          and Convertible Notes was determined using an incremental borrowing
          interest rate of 10 percent.
     (b)  The Warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's Common
          Stock are contingent upon, and the number of shares of Common Stock
          issuable upon exercise is determined by, certain future financial and
          operating performance criteria which have not been met.  As a result,
          the value of such Warrants cannot be measured.
     (c)  The fair value of net assets acquired was determined as follows:

         (i)   Receivables were recorded at amounts to be recovered less
               allowances for uncollectible amounts;
         (ii)  Fixed assets were stated at historical cost which approximate 
               current replacement costs;
         (iii) Other assets were recorded at cost which was assessed to
               approximate fair value; and
         (iv)  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities were recorded at
               the present value of amounts to be paid.
     
     The amounts recorded in the financial statements of Integracion were
assessed to approximate fair value and no fair value adjustments were
recorded in the purchase transaction. No value was attributed to the
Additional Payment as such is contingent upon Integracion meeting certain
performance standards.

<PAGE>


     (a)   The adjustment to record the purchase accounting as of June 30,
           1997 is as follows:
                                                   DR (CR)
  
     Cash                                       $   (130,000)
     Goodwill                                      1,654,450
     Accounts payable                                (57,750)
     Notes payable                                (2,555,401)
     Shareholders' equity                          1,088,701
                                                $       -   

4.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

     (a)  Amortization of goodwill has been recorded in the pro forma
          statement of operations based on the purchase price as discussed in
          Note 3 above.  Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 15
          years.
          
     (b)  Imputed interest is recorded on the non-interest bearing
          Convertible Notes and Promissory Notes using the Company's
          incremental borrowing rate of 10%.
          
     (c)  Due to the fact that the amounts recorded in the financial
          statements of Integracion were assessed to approximate fair value and
          no fair value adjustments were made, no adjustments were made to
          reconcile any differences between book value and tax value as a
          result of the purchase transaction. An adjustment has been made to
          the unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the six months
          ended June 30, 1997 to recognize the tax benefit of the deductibility
          of the interest expense and amortization of goodwill in connection
          with the acquisition of Integracion. The adjustment is consistent
          with the treatment of taxes for the Company's historical consolidated
          statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  No
          adjustment for such tax benefits were made in the pro forma statement
          of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 due to the
          uncertainty that the Company would utilize its net operating loss
          carryforwards before expiration as of that date.
          
     (d)  The earnings per common and common equivalent share is based on
          the weighted average  number of shares of common stock outstanding
          for the periods ended June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996. The
          Convertible Notes were considered for the period ended June 30, 1997
          with respect to the disclosure of fully diluted earnings per share
          but resulted in the same earnings per share calculation as that of
          primary earnings per share; therefore, no additional disclosure has
          been made. With respect to the period ended December 31, 1996, the
          Convertible Notes would have an anti-dilutive effect and, therefore,
          a fully diluted earnings per share disclosure is inapplicable.

<AUDIT-REPORT>

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Integracion de Redes, S.A. de C.V.:


     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 1996
and 1995 of Integracion de Redes, S.A. de C.V., and the related statements of
income, changes in stockholders' equity and changes in financial position for
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, all expressed in Mexican pesos.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.

     We have conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards in Mexico, which are substantially the same as those
followed 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 presentation of the financial statements.  We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     As of the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company adopted the
recognition of the effects of inflation on financial information as required
under Mexican GAAP Bulletin B-10, "Recognition of the Effects of Inflation on
Financial Information", as amended, issued by the Mexican Institute of Public
Accountants.  The accompanying financial statements at December 31, 1995, are
stated at historical cost.

     In our opinion, except for not recognizing the effects of inflation on
financial information at December 31, 1995, as mentioned in the preceding
paragraph, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Integracion de Redes, S.A. de
C.V. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations,
changes in stockholders' equity and changes in its financial position for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in Mexico.

     Accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico vary in certain
important respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States.  The application of the latter would have affected the determination
of net income expressed in Mexican pesos for each of the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the determination of stockholders' equity and financial
position also expressed in Mexican pesos as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 to
the extent summarized in Note 6 to the financial statements.

furniture.

Inventories are stated at cost or market value, whichever is lower.

Salaries and other labor related benefits are taxed at 2%.

The Company has 2,324 Mexican pesos in employee profit sharing payable at
December 31, 1996.

The accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 1996 have been
restated to the end of the year considering the General Price Level Method in
accordance with Mexican GAAP.

The accounts affected by the recognition of inflation are as follows:

      Inventories
      Income statement accounts
      Property and equipment
      Stockholders' equity accounts

The general price level used for this purpose was the Mexican National
Consumer Price Index.

NOTE 6    SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEXICAN AND U.S. GAAP

The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of
accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico ( Mexican GAAP).

Except for inflation accounting,  Mexican GAAP are, in general terms, similar
to the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US
GAAP).  However, there are areas in which Mexican accounting standards and
practices differ from the requirements of US GAAP.

The principal differences between Mexican GAAP and US GAAP are as follows:

RECOGNITION OF THE EFFECTS OF INFLATION ON FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

The provisions of Bulletin B-10, as amended, relating to the recognition of
the effects of inflation in the financial statements, have no counterparts
under US GAAP.  However, as Mexican GAAP includes the effects of inflation in
the primary financial statements, the US Securities and Exchange Commission
does not require the reversal of the restatement of the financial statements
to recognize the effects of inflation.

DEFERRED INCOME TAXES:

Under Mexican GAAP, deferred income taxes and compulsory employee profit
sharing are provided on the liability method only for non-recurring and
identifiable book and tax differences that are expected to reverse over a
definite period of time.  Under US GAAP, deferred taxes are recognized for
the tax consequences of all temporary differences, both recurring and
nonrecurring, between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax
basis of existing assets and liabilities.

CONVENIENCE STATEMENTS:

The 1996 US dollar amounts, denoted by the symbol $, shown in the financial
statements have been included solely for the convenience of the reader and
were translated from Mexican pesos at a rate quoted by Bank of Mexico for
December 31, 1996 of 7.8509 pesos per US dollar. Such translation should not
be construed as a representation that the Mexican peso amounts have been or
could be converted into US dollars at this or any other rate.

STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION:

Under Mexican GAAP, the Company presents statements of changes in financial
position in constant Mexican pesos. This presentation identifies the
generation and application of resources representing differences between
beginning and ending financial statement balances in constant Mexican pesos.

The changes  in  the  financial statement balances included in this statement
constitute cash flow activity stated in constant Mexican pesos.  In
accordance with Mexican GAAP, the reduction in current and long term debt due
to restatement in constant Mexican pesos is presented as a resource applied
to financing activities.
