1.  The Company:

                  Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. ("Pegasus" or together
with its subsidiaries stated below, the "Company"), is a diversified media and
communications company whose subsidiaries consist of Pegasus Broadcast
Television, Inc. ("PBT"), Pegasus Cable Television, Inc. ("PCT"), Pegasus
Broadcast Associates, L.P. ("PBA"), Pegasus Satellite Television, Inc. ("PST"),
MCT Cablevision, L.P. ("MCT") and Pegasus Cable Television of San German, Inc.
("PST-SG"). PBT operates broadcast television ("TV") stations affiliated with
the Fox Broadcasting Company ("Fox") and United Paramount Network ("UPN")
television networks. PCT, together with its subsidiaries, Pegasus Cable
Television of Connecticut, Inc. ("PCT-CT"), MCT and PCT-SG, operate cable
television ("Cable") systems that provide service to individual and commercial
subscribers in New England and Puerto Rico. PBA holds a television station
license which simulcasts programming from a station operated by PBT. On July 9,
1997, the Company transferred the stock of PST, which provides direct broadcast
satellite ("DBS") services to customers in the New England area, to a newly
formed subsidiary of the Company, PST Holdings, Inc. ("PSTH"), and PSTH
transferred the PST stock to Pegasus Satellite Holdings, Inc. ("PSH"), a
subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Corporation ("PCC"), the Company's parent
(the "PST/PSH Exchange"). In exchange, PSTH received $27.8 million of preferred
equity in PSH. PSH is a DBS holding company whose subsidiaries provide DBS
services to customers in certain rural areas, which, pro forma for the PST/PSH
Exchange, encompass portions of twenty-two states (as of June 30, 1997). An
independent appraisal was performed to ascertain the fair market value of PST.

         Prior to October 8, 1996 the Company was a direct subsidiary of Pegasus
Communications Holdings, Inc. ("PCH"). Effective October 8, 1996 the Company
became a direct subsidiary of PCC as a result of PCC's initial public offering
(the "Initial Public Offering") of its Class A Common Stock. On December 30,
1996, as a result of a registered exchange offer made to holders of Pegasus'
Class B Common Stock, Pegasus became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PCC.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. The financial statements include
the accounts of Pegasus and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
consisting of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the financial
position of the Company and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the interim period.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements:

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. Significant estimates relate to barter transactions and
the useful lives and recoverability of intangible assets.

Inventories:

         Inventories consist of equipment held for resale to customers and
installation supplies. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on
a first-in, first-out basis.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Revenue:

         The Company operates in two industry segments: multichannel television
(DBS and Cable) and broadcast television (TV). The Company recognizes revenue in
its multichannel operations when video and audio services are provided. The
Company recognizes revenue in its broadcast operations when advertising spots
are broadcast.

Programming:

         The Company obtains a portion of its TV programming, including presold
advertisements, through its network affiliation agreements with Fox and also
through independent producers. The Company does not make any direct payments for
this programming. For running network programming, the Company receives payments
from Fox. For running independent producers' programming, the Company receives
no direct payments. Instead, the Company retains a portion of the available
advertisement spots to sell on its own account. Barter programming revenue and
the related expense are recognized when the presold advertisements are
broadcast. These amounts are presented gross as barter programming revenue and
expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Advertising Costs:

          Advertising costs are charged to operations in the period incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

         Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased
with an initial maturity of three months or less. The Company has cash balances
in excess of the federally insured limits at various banks.

Concentration of Credit Risk:

         Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due
to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, and
their dispersion across different businesses and geographic regions.

Reclassifications:

         Certain amounts from the prior periods have been reclassified to
conform to the statement presentation for the current period.

3.  Common Stock:

         On December 30, 1996, the Company, through a registered exchange offer,
exchanged all of the Pegasus Class B Common Stock for 191,775 shares in the
aggregate of PCC's Class A Common Stock.

         Under the terms of the Series B Notes, Pegasus' ability to pay
dividends on the Company's common stock is subject to certain restrictions.

</TABLE>

         In July 1995, the Company sold 85,000 units consisting of $85.0 million
in aggregate of 12 1/2% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 (the "Series
A Notes" and, together with the Series B Notes, the "Notes") and 8,500 shares of
the Company's Class B Common Stock (the "Note Offering"). The Class B Common
Stock was subsequently exchanged for PCC Class A Common Stock (see Note 3). In
November 1995, the Company exchanged its Series A Notes for the Series B Notes.
The Series B Notes have substantially the same terms and provisions as the
Series A Notes. The Series B Notes are guaranteed on a full, unconditional,
senior subordinated basis, jointly and severally by a majority of the wholly
owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of Pegasus. The Company's indebtedness
contains certain financial and operating covenants, including restrictions on
the Company to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and to pay dividends.

         In August 1996, the Company entered into a $50.0 million seven-year
senior revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), which is
collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. Outstanding
balances under the Credit Facility were repaid by PCC, the Company's parent. The

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

5. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities:

Legal Matters:

         From time to time the Company is involved with claims that arise in the
normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability
with respect to these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

6.  Disposition:

         Effective January 31, 1997, the Company sold substantially all the
assets of its New Hampshire cable system to State Cable TV Corporation for
approximately $6.9 million in cash, net of certain selling costs. The Company
recognized a gain on the transaction of approximately $4.5 million.

         The following unaudited summary, prepared on a pro forma basis,
combines the results of operations as if the above cable system had been sold as
of the beginning of the periods presented, after including the impact of certain
adjustments, such as the Company's reduced commission rate, payments to related
parties, amortization of intangibles, interest expense and related income tax
effects. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of what
would have occurred had the disposition been made on those dates or of results
which may occur in the future.

7.  Other Events:

         On January 27, 1997, PCC, the Company's parent, completed a unit
offering (the "Unit Offering") in which it sold 100,000 shares of its 12 3/4%
Series A Cumulative Exchangeable Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase
193,600 shares of its Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $15 per
share, to the public at a price of $1,000 per unit. A portion of the proceeds
from the Unit Offering were used to repay all outstanding indebtedness under the
Credit Facility as indicated in Note 4.

         On August 1, 1997, Pegasus launched TV station WPME, which is
affiliated with UPN. WPME is in the Portland, ME Designated Market Area ("DMA")
and is being operated under a local marketing agreement ("LMA"). WPME's offices,
studio and transmission facilities are co-located with WPXT, a TV station in the
Portland market the Company has owned and operated since January 1996.

8. Other Information (unaudited):

         As defined in the indenture governing the Series B Notes (the
"Indenture"), the Company is required to provide Adjusted Operating Cash Flow
data for Pegasus and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, where
Adjusted Operating Cash Flow is defined as, "for the four most recent fiscal
quarters for which internal financial statements are available, Operating Cash
Flow of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries less DBS Cash Flow
(Satellite Segment Operating Cash Flow) for the most recent four-quarter period
plus DBS Cash Flow for the most recent quarterly period, multiplied by four."
Operating Cash Flow is income from operations before income taxes, depreciation
and amortization, interest expense, extraordinary items and non-cash management
fees and incentive compensation. Restricted Subsidiaries carries the same
meaning as in the Indenture. Pro forma for the disposition of the New Hampshire
cable system, as if such disposition had occurred on July 1, 1996, Adjusted
Operating Cash Flow would have been approximately $18.8 million.

9.  Subsidiary Guarantees (unaudited):

         The Series B Notes are guaranteed on a full, unconditional, senior
subordinated basis, jointly and severally by each of the wholly-owned direct and
indirect subsidiaries of Pegasus with the exception of certain subsidiaries as
described below (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). PSTH, WTLH License Corp., WTLH,
Inc., Pegasus Anasco Holdings, Inc. and PCT-CT, subsidiaries of Pegasus, are not
guarantors of the Series B Notes ("Non-guarantor Subsidiaries"). As the result
of these subsidiaries not being guarantors of the Series B Notes, the following
condensed combining financial statements have been provided. The Company
believes separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the
Guarantor Subsidiaries are not deemed material to investors.

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



         This Report contains certain forward-looking statements (as such term
is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) and
information relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs of the
management of the Company, as well as assumptions made by and information
currently available to the Company's management. When used in this Report, the
words "estimate," "project," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "expect" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future
events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those contemplated in such forward-looking
statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as the date hereof. The Company
does not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

General

         The Company is a diversified media and communications company operating
in two business segments: multichannel television and broadcast television.
Pegasus Multichannel Television includes DBS and cable businesses. DBS
operations consist of providing DIRECTV(R) ("DIRECTV") services in certain rural
areas of New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and New York) in
which the Company holds the exclusive right to provide such services. On July 9,
1997, the Company transferred the stock of PST, which held all of the Company's
DBS operations, to a newly formed subsidiary of the Company, PSTH, and PSTH
transferred the PST stock to PSH. In exchange, PSTH received $27.8 million of
preferred equity in PSH. Its cable operations consist of systems in New England
(Connecticut and Massachusetts) and Puerto Rico. The Company sold its New
Hampshire cable system effective January 31, 1997. Pegasus Broadcast Television
owns and operates five TV stations affiliated with FOX and one affiliated with
UPN. It has entered into agreements to operate two additional TV stations which
will be affiliated with either UPN or the Warner Brothers ("WB") television
networks. One of these stations is in a market in which the Company currently
owns and operates a TV station and is to commence operations in 1998. The other
station is to commence operations in 1997.

         Multichannel revenues are derived from monthly customer subscriptions,
pay-per-view services, subscriber equipment rentals, home shopping commissions,
advertising time sales and installation charges. Broadcast revenues are derived
from the sale of broadcast air time to local and national advertisers.

         The Company's location operating expenses consist of (i) programming
expenses, (ii) marketing and selling costs, including advertising and promotion
expenses, local sales commissions, and ratings and research expenditures, (iii)
technical and operations costs, and (iv) general and administrative expenses.
Multichannel programming expenses consist of amounts paid to program suppliers,
DSS authorization charges and satellite control fees, each of which is paid on a
per subscriber basis, and DIRECTV royalties which are equal to 5% of DBS program
service revenues. Broadcast programming expenses include the amortization of
long-term program rights purchases, music license costs and "barter" programming
expenses which represent the value of broadcast air time provided to television
program suppliers in lieu of cash.

         Location Cash Flow is defined as net revenues less location operating
expenses. Although Location Cash Flow is not a measure of performance under
generally accepted accounting principles, the Company believes that Location
Cash Flow is accepted within the Company's business segments as a generally
recognized measure of performance and is used by analysts who report publicly on
the performance of companies operating in such segments. Nevertheless, this
measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from
operations, net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other
measure for determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity which
is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Broadcast Television net revenues increased $937,000 or 14%. The net revenues
increased as a result of (i) a $742,000 or 82% increase in DBS revenues mainly
due to increased revenue per subscriber and the increased number of DBS

compared to the same period in 1996. Multichannel Television location operating
expenses increased $1.3 million or 58% and Broadcast Television location
operating expenses increased $510,000 or 11%. The location operating expenses
increased as a result of (i) a $575,000 or 84% increase in operating expenses
generated by the Company's DBS operations due to a same territory increase in
programming costs of $320,000 and increases in other operating costs totaling
$255,000, all generated from the increased number of DBS subscribers, (ii) a
$700,000 or 46% increase in Cable operating expenses as the net result of a

September 1, 1996 and a $230,000 reduction due to the sale of the Company's New
Hampshire cable system effective January 31, 1997 and (iii) a $510,000 or 11%
increase in TV operating expenses as the result of a $232,000 or 8% increase in
same station direct operating expenses and a $278,000 increase attributable to
stations acquired in the first quarter of 1996.

period in 1996. Multichannel Television Location Cash Flow increased $655,000 or
41% and Broadcast Television Location Cash Flow increased $427,000 or 18%.
Location Cash Flow increased as a result of (i) a $167,000 or 75% increase in
DBS Location Cash Flow, (ii) a $489,000 or 35% increase in Cable Location Cash
Flow which was the net result of a $96,000 or 8% increase in same system
Location Cash Flow, a $580,000 increase due to the system acquired effective
September 1, 1996 and a $187,000 reduction due to the sale of the Company's New
Hampshire cable system effective January 31, 1997, and (iii) a $427,000 or 18%
increase in TV Location Cash Flow which was the net result of a $482,000
increase in same station Location Cash Flow and a $55,000 decrease attributable
to stations acquired in the first quarter of 1996.

         Incentive compensation, which is calculated from increases in Pro forma
Location Cash Flow, increased by approximately $47,000 or 28% for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.

an increase in other expenses of approximately $72,000 and a gain on the sale of
the New Hampshire cable system of approximately $4.5 million.



 Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been the net cash
provided by its TV and cable operations and credit available under its credit
facilities. The Company's principal uses of its cash have been to fund
acquisitions, to meet its debt service obligations, to fund investments in its
TV and cable technical facilities and fund investments in multichannel customer
premises equipment.

         During the six months ended June 30, 1997, net cash provided by
operating activities was approximately $4.3 million, which together with $8.4
million of cash on hand, $6.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of the New
Hampshire cable system and $615,000 of net cash provided by the Company's
financing activities was used to fund other investing activities of
approximately $8.6 million. Investing activities, net of the proceeds from the
sale of the New Hampshire cable system, consisted of (i) broadcast television
transmitter, tower and facility constructions and upgrades totaling
approximately $4.1 million, (ii) the interconnection and expansion of the Puerto
Rico cable systems amounting to approximately $651,000, (iii) DBS subscriber
acquisition costs, which are being amortized over a twelve-month period, of
$701,000, (iv) payments of programming rights amounting to $1.3 million, and (v)
maintenance and other capital expenditures and intangibles totaling
approximately $1.8 million. As of June 30, 1997, the Company's cash on hand
approximated $11.7 million.



                                       19



<PAGE>


         The Company believes that it has adequate resources to meet its working
capital, maintenance capital expenditure and debt service obligations. The
Company believes that cash on hand together with available borrowings under the
Credit Facility and future indebtedness which may be incurred by the Company and
its subsidiaries will give the Company the ability to fund acquisitions and
other capital requirements in the future. However, there can be no assurance
that the future cash flows of the Company will be sufficient to meet all of the
Company's obligations and commitments.

         The Company closely monitors conditions in the capital markets to
identify opportunities for the effective and prudent use of financial leverage.
In financing its future expansion and acquisition requirements, the Company
would expect to avail itself of such opportunities and thereby increase its
indebtedness which could result in increased debt service requirements. There
can be no assurance that such debt financing can be completed on terms
satisfactory to the Company or at all. The Company may also issue additional
equity to fund its future expansion and acquisition requirements.

Capital Expenditures

         The Company's capital expenditures aggregated $6.2 million in 1996. The
Company expects recurring renewal and refurbishment capital expenditures to
total approximately $2.0 million per year. In addition to these maintenance
capital expenditures, the Company's 1997 capital projects include (i) DBS
expenditures of approximately $230 per new subscriber, for the first half of the
year, prior to the disposition of the Company's DBS operations in the PST/PSH
exchange, (ii) cable expenditures of approximately $1.0 million for the
completion of the interconnection of the Puerto Rico cable systems and fiber
upgrades in Puerto Rico and New England, and (iii) approximately $6.5 million to
$7.5 million of TV expenditures for broadcast television transmitter, tower and
facility constructions and upgrades. The Company launched a new TV station,
WPME, on August 1, 1997 and its plans are to commence operations of two
additional stations, one in 1997 and the other in 1998. For the six month period
ended June 30, 1997, the Company incurred $5.1 million in capital expenditures.
There can be no assurance that the Company's capital expenditure plans will not
change in the future.

Other

         Under the terms of the Indenture, PM&C is prohibited from paying
dividends prior to July 1, 1998. The payment of dividends subsequent to July 1,
1998 will be subject to the satisfaction of certain financial conditions set
forth in the Indenture, and will also be subject to lender consent under the
terms of the Credit Facility.

         The Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness is limited under
the terms of the Indenture and the Credit Facility. These limitations take the
form of certain leverage ratios and are dependent upon certain measures of
operating profitability. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, capital
expenditures and business acquisitions that do not meet certain criteria will
require lender consent.

         The Company's revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the
broadcast television industry, the Company's first quarter generally produces
the lowest revenues for the year, and the fourth quarter generally produces the
highest revenues for the year. The Company's operating results in any period may
be affected by the incurrence of advertising and promotion expenses that do not
necessarily produce commensurate revenues in the short-term until the impact of
such advertising and promotion is realized in future periods.

         The Company believes that inflation has not been a material factor
affecting the Company's business. In general, the Company's revenues and
expenses are impacted to the same extent by inflation. Substantially all of the
Company's indebtedness bear interest at a fixed rate.

         The Company has reviewed the provisions of Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities," and SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," and the
implementation of the above standards did not have any impact on the Company.

         In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128, "Earnings Per Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing
and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities with publicly
held common stock or potential common stock. This Statement is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, earlier
application is not permitted. This Statement requires restatement of all
prior-period EPS data presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact,
if any, adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have on its financial statements.
