SUMMARY FINANCIAL AND OPERATING INFORMATION<br />

The tables below present certain consolidated income statement, balance sheet and other financial and operational data<br />

of <strong>iesy</strong> and ish on the basis of German GAAP. German GAAP differs in certain significant respects from U.S. GAAP and<br />

IFRS. See “Annex A: Summary of Certain Significant Differences Between German GAAP and U.S. GAAP” and “Annex B:<br />

Summary of Certain Significant Differences Between German GAAP and IFRS” for a discussion of certain significant<br />

differences between German GAAP and U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Although <strong>iesy</strong> and ish are not required to prepare cash flow<br />

statements under German GAAP, the tables also present certain consolidated cash flow statement data of <strong>iesy</strong> and ish. The<br />

data presented below is derived from <strong>iesy</strong> and ish’s unaudited consolidated financial information for the three months ended<br />

March 31, 2004 and 2005 and <strong>iesy</strong> and ish’s audited consolidated financial statements including elsewhere in this Prospectus,<br />

except for ish’s unaudited financial data for the year ended December 31, 2003.<br />

<strong>iesy</strong> has also included certain subscriber and other operating data in the tables below. The installation of a new<br />

information technology system and changes to <strong>iesy</strong>’s financial accounting system during the course of 2002 revealed<br />

inconsistencies in <strong>iesy</strong>’s subscriber data necessitating data cleansing and subscriber data corrections throughout 2003, which<br />

may affect the accuracy of subscriber and other operating data for such period. You should not place undue reliance on this<br />

operating data, which may not be indicative of <strong>iesy</strong>’s historical or future results of operations. See “Risk Factors—Risks<br />

Relating to Our Business—Certain of <strong>iesy</strong>’s financial information may not be representative of its actual results and its<br />

subscriber and operating data may not be accurate. It has not provided any discussion or analysis of the <strong>iesy</strong> Predecessor’s<br />

financial results or condition.”<br />

The financial information presented below with respect to ish is based on the unaudited financial information for the<br />

three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, the audited financial information for the year ended December 31, 2004, the<br />

audited financial information for the year ended December 31, 2003 (including eleven months of operations for the<br />

subsidiaries acquired on January 31, 2003), and the unaudited financial information for the year ended December 31, 2003.<br />

The unaudited financial information of ish for the year ended December 31, 2003 is an aggregation of unaudited information<br />

for the month ended January 31, 2003 of the operating business of ish GP, ish KG, ish KS GP, ish KS and KSG, all of which<br />

were acquired by Kabelnetz KG on January 31, 2003, and the audited consolidated financial information for the year ended<br />

December 31, 2003 of ish, including eleven months of operations for the subsidiaries acquired on January 31, 2003. We have<br />

included the unaudited financial information for the year ended December 31, 2003 because it may be more useful for<br />

investors in comparing ish’s financial results in 2003 and 2004. Audited consolidated financial information does not exist in<br />

relation to ish’s business prior to the 2003 ish Acquisition in January 2003, and comparability of actual information would<br />

also be limited because only the non-operating subsidiaries of ish, Kabelnetz GP and Kabelnetz KG were included in the<br />

consolidated ish financial statements prior to the 2003 ish Acquisition.<br />

We derived the financial data for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005 by adding for <strong>iesy</strong> and ish, respectively,<br />

consolidated financial data for the year ended December 31, 2004 to their consolidated interim financial data for the three<br />

months ended March 31, 2005 and subtracting their consolidated interim financial data for the three months ended March 31,<br />

2004, respectively. The data for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2005 is for informational purposes only and is not<br />

necessarily representative of <strong>iesy</strong> or ish’s results of operation for any future period or <strong>iesy</strong> or ish’s financial condition at any<br />

future date.<br />

The unaudited pro forma financial data included in the tables below gives effect to the Refinancing, the ish Acquisition<br />

and the Financing and has been derived from our historical consolidated financial information and is based on certain<br />

assumptions and adjustments. This unaudited pro forma financial data has not been prepared in conformity with the<br />

requirements of German GAAP, U.S. GAAP, SEC requirements or any other accounting standards. Accordingly, the<br />

presentation, assumptions and adjustments of our unaudited pro forma financial data may differ from that permitted under<br />

those standards. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on this unaudited pro forma financial data. See<br />

“Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of <strong>iesy</strong>.”<br />

The information below should be read together with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included<br />

in this Prospectus, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects of <strong>iesy</strong>,” “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects<br />

of ish” and “Capitalization.”<br />
