TELIGENT, INC.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. The Company
Teligent, Inc. ("Teligent" or the "Company") (a development stage
company) was formed in September 1997, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Teligent,
L.L.C. On November 21, 1997, concurrent with an initial public offering of the
Company's Class A Common Stock, Teligent, L.L.C. merged with and into the
Company (the "Merger") with the Company as the surviving entity. Teligent,
L.L.C. was originally formed in March 1996, by Microwave Services, Inc. ("MSI")
and Digital Services Corporation ("DSC"), both of which, through affiliates,
have extensive experience in pioneering wireless telecommunications businesses.
Prior to the Merger, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation ("NTT"), through
its wholly owned subsidiary NTTA&T, acquired a 5% interest in Teligent L.L.C.,
and immediately after the Merger acquired an additional 7.5% equity interest in
the Company. All of Teligent, L.L.C.'s member interests were converted into
shares of common stock upon the Merger in a manner proportionate to each
member's percentage interest in Teligent, L.L.C. immediately prior to the
Merger.
Teligent, currently in the development stage, intends to be a premier
provider of high quality, low cost voice, data, and video telecommunications
services primarily to small and medium sized businesses.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements included
herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of
the Company's management, all adjustments and reclassifications of a normal and
recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These
condensed unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1997 filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three and six months
ending June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes.
Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the tax basis of
assets and liabilities and the basis reported in the financial statements.
During the three and six months period ended June 30,
7
1998, the Company did not record an income tax provision given the significant
operating losses and based on the fact that any resultant asset would be fully
reserved.
Net Loss Per Share
During 1997, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which
requires the Company to present basic and fully diluted earnings per share for
all years presented. For the period prior to 1998, the Company's net loss per
share calculation (basic and fully diluted), is based upon the number of common
shares outstanding immediately prior to the initial public offering, as if
outstanding for all periods presented similar to a stock split, plus the
weighted average common shares issued subsequent to the initial public offering.
The Company's 1998 net loss per share calculation (basic and fully diluted) is
based on the weighted average common shares outstanding. There are no
reconciling items in the numerator or denominator of the Company's net loss per
share calculation. Employee stock options have been excluded from the net loss
per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Comprehensive Income
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
of Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 establishes standards
for the display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of
financial statements. Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during
a period except those resulting from the issuance of shares of stock and
distributions to shareholders. There were no differences between net loss and
comprehensive loss.
3. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information
Investing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company incurred capital
expenditures of approximately $65.5 million, of which $24.0 million was accrued,
and is not reflected in the accompanying condensed statement of cash flows.
4. Capital Stock
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, stock options were exercised
to purchase 9,931 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The number of
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of June
30, 1998 was 8,166,341.
5. Discount Note Offering
On February 20, 1998, the Company completed an offering (the "Discount
Notes Offering") of $440 million 11 1/2% Senior Discount Notes due 2008 (the
"Senior Discount Notes"). The Senior Discount Notes carry zero-coupon interest
until March 1, 2003, after which the Senior Discount Notes pay interest at 11
1/2%, payable March 1 and September 1 through March 1, 2008. The Company
received approximately $243.1 million net proceeds from the Discount Notes
Offering, after deductions for offering expenses of approximately $7.6 million.
On July 10, 1998, the Company commenced an offer to exchange (the
"Exchange Offer") all outstanding Senior Discount Notes for 11 1/2% Series B
Senior Discount Notes due 2008 (the "New Discount Notes") which have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The New Discount Notes
are identical in all material respects to the Senior Discount Notes except for
certain transfer restrictions, registration rights and certain liquidated
damages
8
rights which rights will terminate upon consummation of the Exchange Offer. The
Exchange Offer expired on August 13, 1998 and all outstanding Senior Discount
Notes were exchanged for the New Discount Notes.
6. Subsequent Event
On July 2, 1998, the Company entered into a credit agreement providing
for facilities up to an aggregate of $800 million (the "Credit Agreement"). The
Credit Agreement is for working capital and general corporate purposes,
including the purchase of telecommunications equipment, software and services.
Availability of funds under the Credit Agreement is subject to certain
conditions as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company's obligations under
the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the
Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
------ ---------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
---------------------
Except for any historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contain certain "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1997
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors including, but not limited to,
economic, key employee, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological
factors affecting the Company's growth, operations, markets, products, services,
licenses and other factors discussed in the Company's other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These factors may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these
uncertainties, prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on such forward-looking statements.
Overview and Results of Operations
Teligent intends to capitalize on a convergence of technological,
regulatory and market developments to capture revenues in the estimated $110
billion business telecommunications market. Teligent's goal is to be a
full-service, integrated communications company that will offer small and
medium-sized business customers local, long distance, high-speed data and
Internet services over its own, digital wireless networks in 74 major
metropolitan areas in the United States.
The Company's business commenced on March 5, 1996, and the Company has
generated only nominal revenues from operations to date. Prior to the transfer
by MSI and DSC of their fixed wireless licenses to the Company in October 1997,
revenues and cash flows associated with customers using the fixed wireless
licenses were accounted for by MSI and DSC. Accordingly, Teligent's historic
revenues principally reflect certain management and administrative services to
MSI and DSC in connection with the development, construction and operation of
their 18 GHz and subsequently 24 GHz fixed wireless networks. The Company's
primary activities have focused on the acquisition of licenses and
authorizations, the acquisition of building access rights, the hiring of
management and other key personnel, the raising of capital, the acquisition of
equipment, the development of operating systems and the negotiation of
interconnection agreements.
The Company has experienced significant operating and net losses and
negative operating cash flow to date and expects to continue to experience
increasing operating and net losses and negative operating cash flow until such
time as it develops a revenue-generating customer base sufficient to fund
operating expenses. The Company expects that operating and net losses and
negative operating cash flow will increase significantly as the Company
implements its growth strategy. See "--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1997
The Company generated revenue from communications services of
approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. During the
three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company generated revenue of approximately
$1.1 million for management and other services under arrangements that ended
during 1997.
10
Cost of services, consisting primarily of headcount-related costs and
site rent and acquisition expenses related to network operations, was
approximately $17.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
with approximately $1.2 million for the corresponding period in 1997. This
increase reflects the Company's growth and development of its network
operations.
Sales, general and administrative expenses, consisting primarily of
headcount-related costs, were approximately $26.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998, as compared with approximately $7.5 million for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase relates primarily to additional
costs incurred on the commencement of operations and the development of the
Company's infrastructure.
Stock-based compensation expense, representing non-cash expense
associated with stock-based compensation, was approximately $6.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared with approximately $35.8 million
for the corresponding period in 1997. The decrease is due to additional
compensation expense incurred in 1997 on Company Appreciation Rights granted
prior to the Company's initial public offering.
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 1998
was approximately $2.1 million as compared with approximately $0.1 million for
the corresponding period in 1997 due to higher capital expenditures and
amortization of intangibles acquired in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Interest and other income for the three months ended June 30, 1998, was
approximately $10.2 million, as compared with approximately $46,000 for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase was primarily as a result of
interest earned on cash and investments.
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $16.3 million, as compared with approximately $0.4 million for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase was due to interest on the 11 1/2%
Senior Notes due 2007 issued in November 1997 (the "Senior Notes"), and the 11
1/2% Senior Discount Notes due 2008 issued in February 1998 (the "Senior
Discount Notes").
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
The Company generated revenue from communications services of
approximately $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. During the
six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company generated revenue of approximately
$1.7 million for management and other services under arrangements that ended
during 1997.
Cost of services, consisting primarily of headcount-related costs and
site rent and acquisition expenses related to network operations, was
approximately $25.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
with approximately $1.7 million for the corresponding period in 1997. This
increase reflects the Company's growth and development of its network
operations.
Sales, general and administrative expenses, consisting primarily of
headcount-related costs, were approximately $45.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, as compared with approximately $12.1 million for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase relates primarily to additional
costs incurred on the commencement of operations and the development of the
Company's infrastructure.
11
Stock-based compensation expense, representing non-cash expense
associated with stock-based compensation, was approximately $13.6 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared with approximately $37.9 million
for the corresponding period in 1997. The decrease is due to additional
compensation expense incurred in 1997 on Company Appreciation Rights granted
prior to the Company's initial public offering.
Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 1998
was approximately $3.7 million as compared with approximately $0.2 million for
the corresponding period in 1997 due to higher capital expenditures and
amortization of intangibles acquired in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Interest and other income for the six months ended June 30, 1998, was
approximately $18.3 million, as compared with approximately $49,000 for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase was primarily as a result of
interest earned on cash and investments.
Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $28.2 million, as compared with approximately $0.5 million for the
corresponding period in 1997. This increase was due to interest on the Senior
Notes and the Senior Discount Notes.
The Company expects to generate significant operating and net losses
for the next several years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Discount Notes Offering
On February 20, 1998, the Company completed an offering (the "Discount
Notes Offering") of $440 million Senior Discount Notes. The Senior Discount
Notes carry zero-coupon interest until March 1, 2003, after which the Senior
Discount Notes pay interest at 11 1/2% per annum payable March 1 and September
1, through March 1, 2008. The Company received approximately $243.1 million in
net proceeds from the Discount Notes Offering, after deductions for offering
expenses of approximately $7.6 million.
On July 10, 1998, the Company commenced an offer to exchange (the "Exchange
Offer") all outstanding Senior Discount Notes for 11 1/2% Series B Senior
Discount Notes due 2008 (the "New Discount Notes") which have been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The New Discount Notes are
identical in all material respects to the Senior Discount Notes except for
certain transfer restrictions, registration rights and certain liquidated
damages rights which rights will terminate upon consummation of the Exchange
Offer. The Exchange Offer expired on August 13, 1998 and all outstanding Senior
Discount Notes were exchanged for the New Discount Notes.
Credit Facilities
On July 2, 1998, the Company entered into a credit agreement providing
for facilities up to an aggregate of $800 million (the "Credit Agreement"). The
Credit Agreement will be used primarily for the purchase of telecommunications
equipment, software and services and is also available for working capital and
general corporate purposes. Availability of funds under the Credit Agreement is
subject to certain conditions as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company's
obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the
assets of the Company.

Historical Cash Flows
At June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $563.2 million and
cash and cash equivalents of $587.0 million, as compared to working capital of
$441.3 million and cash and cash equivalents of $424.9 million at December 31,
1997. The increase in working capital from December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998 is
primarily the result of proceeds from the Discount Notes Offering. The buildout
of the Company's networks and the marketing of its services will require
significant capital and operating expenditures in the future.
The Company's total assets increased from $596.4 million as of December
31, 1997 to $813.3 million at June 30, 1998, due primarily to cash proceeds from
the Discount Notes Offering and capital expenditures. Property and equipment,
net of accumulated depreciation, comprised $71.7 million at June 30, 1998
compared to $8.2 million at December 31, 1997.
The Company intends to accelerate the launch of commercial service on
its digital wireless communications network earlier than previously planned. If
the Company is successful in accelerating these commercial launches, it may
result in increased operating and capital expenditures in 1998.
Cash used in operating activities totaled $54.0 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998, due primarily to the operating loss for the period
reduced by non-cash compensation, amortization and depreciation, and other
charges. For the same period in 1997, the Company used cash in operations of
$13.4 million, due primarily to the operating loss for the period offset
primarily by non-cash stock-based compensation.
The Company used cash in investing activities of $27.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 relating primarily to the purchase of property
and equipment. For the same period in 1997, the Company used $9.2 million in
investing activities, consisting of $3.5 million relating to the purchase of
property and equipment and the remainder relating primarily to the acquisition
of FirstMark Communications, Inc.
The Company's cash flows provided by financing activities for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 were $243.2 million, consisting primarily of net
proceeds from the Discount Notes Offering, after costs of $7.6 million. For the
same period in 1997, cash flows from financing activities were $23.0 million
consisting of borrowings under a credit agreement that was terminated in
November 1997.
