                        GUINNESS TELLI*PHONE CORPORATION
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
 

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

         There have been no significant  changes in the Company's  liquidity and
capital resources since the Company filed its annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1997.  Reference is made to that document with regard to
these matters.

Results of Operations.

         The Company has finalized long  term  financial  arrangements  for  the
production of Telli  Screens,  and has also finalized  arrangements  with a U.S.
manufacturer  of consumer  products  for the  production  and  assembly of Telli
Screens  during  the  Company's  early  run  start up  stage.  The  Company  has
negotiated  an  agreement  with  Global  Tele  Services,   LLC  ("Global"),   to
manufacture a minimum of 10,000 telli screens , Model GT100, which when produced
will be leased  to the  Company  for  installation  in  Southern  Marin  County,
California.  Under the  terms of the  agreement,  the  Company  will pay  Global
$237,500 per quarter for a total of  $4,750,000,  commencing  180 days after the
Company  receives the telli screens from Global.  Definitive  documents  will be
filed with the SEC under Form 8-K upon receipt.

         The  Company's  engineer  has  completed  the  first  stage  production
prototype of the Telli Screen and it has been delivered to the  manufacturer.  A
small run of Telli Screens is being produced  initially for a small market test.
By  March  1999  the  Company  plans to have  approximately  1,000 Telli Screens
delivered into the  marketplace  and plans to have at least 10,000 Telli Screens
operating in households in Southern Marin County by July 1999.

         This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section  27A of the  1933  Securities  Act  and  Section  21E of the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results could differ  materially,  as the result of
such  factors as  competition  in the markets  for  telephone  directories,  the
availability of financing at favorable  terms, and other factors detailed in the
Company's public filings with the SEC.
