1. Operations

Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. (Company) is engaged in acting directly or holding interest in the capital stock of other companies who are engaged in the distribution of subscription television signals, in the provision of access to added value services, rendering other telecommunication services, in any other type of signal distribution of any sort, through its own network and on the production of its own local channels, as well as the direct acting on such activities. The Company is also engaged in providing all services to its subsidiaries within the context of corporate, administrative, financial and consultation support.

In the period ended March 31, 2008 there were no changes in share ownership except for the controlled company Net Jundiaí Ltda, which was incorporated on March 31, 2008.

2. Preparation basis and presentation of the financial statements

Statements for the Three - Month Periods were compiled on the basis of the same accounting practices as those used for the financial statements covering the period ended December 31, 2007.

Cashflow statements compiled in accordance with NPC-20 of the Institute of Independent Auditors of Brazil (local acronym IBRACON) are shown in Note 12.

In addition to having common and preferred shares at Bovespa, the Company holds preferred shares traded at NASDAQ as “American Depositary Shares” – ADS in the United States of America and is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission – SEC regulations. The Company provides annual and quarterly financial statements compiled in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (USGAAP). The Company has also preferred shares that are traded on the LATIBEX, the Madrid stock exchange, and is therefore also subject to the regulations of the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores – CNMV, which are complied with on the basis of the existing requirements in Brazil and in the United States of America. The Brazilian accounting practices differ from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (USGAAP).

2. Preparation basis and presentation of the financial statements - Continued

On March 31, 2008, reconciliations between the company's earnings and net assets with financial statements compiled in accordance with USGAAP show the following items:

    03/31/2008 
   
    Net profit    Net shareholder 
        equity 
     
In accordance with Brazilian Corporation Law    32,276    2,770,679 
Appropriation of adhesion charge revenue    1,216    (4,684)
Costs due to subscriber installations    (896)   41,573 
Deferred revenue for programming content suppliers    477    (4,715)
Depreciation and amortization    895    132,565 
Differences due to criteria in determining premium paid on acquisitions         
of investments    25,717    414,968 
Income tax    (12,362)   (185,353)
PP&E and deferred Asset    -    (240,847)
Other    (2,347)   (3,138)
     
USGAAP    44,976    2,921,048 
     

There are also differences in classification of asset and liability items, income statement items and required disclosures. The Company has adopted a policy of disclosing the essence of the transactions in a consistent manner in its corporate financial statements prepared and in accordance with USGAAP.

Law 11638 was enacted on December 28, 2007 and modified, revoked and introduced new provisions for Law 6404 (Corporations). Brazil's Law 11638 came into force on January 1, 2008, but several alterations are awaiting further complementary rules and regulations. Therefore quarterly report data for the period ended March 31, 2008 were compiled in accordance with specific instructions of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (local acronym CVM) and do not include modifications to accounting practices introduced by Law 11638. The company's officers are currently evaluating the effects Law 11638 will have for its financial statements. The main impacts on the result from operations so far identified include the end of amortization for share premium and its corresponding tax effects, and recognition of future acquisitions of investee companies based on the market value of the assets comprising them. There will also be alterations in the classification of certain "assets" and "liabilities" items.

The Company's management, at this transition stage, is currently evaluating the effects Law 11638 will have for its financial statements.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2008, there were no changes in business items or assumptions used for projections of recovery of tax credits on which recognition was based, or that would require any revision of the estimates made or total or partial recognition of tax credits.

The recovery of tax credits were based on the projections of taxable income considering several prevailing financial and business assumptions as revised and approved by the company’s management bodies for the period ending in 2007. Estimates may fail to materialize given the uncertainties inherent to forecasts.

On March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 the remaining balances of tax credits recorded by the subsidiary operators by the Company are as shown below:

7. Provisions for contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in legal and administrative processes before several courts and governmental agencies arising during the normal course of operations, involving tax, labor, civil and other legal matters. These processes involve infraction records, indemnity claims, requirements for agreement revision and other actions whose amounts required or taxes do not reflect what will be defined on the final sentence. Management based on information received from its legal advisors, pending legal processes and based on prior experience regarding amounts claimed has established a provision for a sufficient amount to cover losses estimated for the ongoing suits as shown below:

Some subsidiaries brought judicial actions against taxation of their broad band Internet access services via cable and sought recognition of this activity as part of pay-TV services under Anatel regulations, being liable to ICMS tax on revenue and enjoying the same benefit. On January 9, 2008, the Company ceased legal actions against the state government's tax department in relation to ICMS tax, thus relinquishing court deposits in the amount of R$ 23,239, and reverted the corresponding obligations previously registered with no impact on earnings for the period.

7. Provisions for contingencies - Continued

Other contingencies related to employee claims, civil law liability, and tax and pension liabilities showed no significant changes in relation to the amounts reported in the financial statement for 2007.

The social tax charges and contributions determined and collected by the Company and its subsidiaries, and the respective income tax declarations, tax and corporate ownership records may be examined by the tax authorities for certain periods as stated in the applicable legislation.

8. Shareholders’ Equity

Capital

During the 2007 period, the Company obtained tax benefits represented as cash savings in the amount of R$ 73,378 arising from amortization of goodwill premium for Globotel Participações S.A., whose net assets were acquired by Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. in August 2001. Observing the preemptive rights of non- controlling shareholders, the portion of the special premium reserve relating to tax benefit realized in the amount of R$ 73,378 was exchanged for equity on January 31, 2008 in favor of the shareholder Globo Comunicação e Participações S.A. (successor to Roma Participações S.A.), assuring other shareholders' preemptive rights to subscribe these shares.

9. Employee Benefits

In addition to the usual benefits provided for in labor legislation, the Company and its subsidiaries have adopted a policy including a few additional benefits contracted with third parties, such as: health and dental insurance and group life insurance, the actuarial risks of which are not assumed by the Company and its subsidiaries. Expenses for these benefits accumulated during the period ended on March 31, 2008, totaled R$ 6,940 (R$ 4,262 on March 31, 2007).

The Company and its subsidiaries have supplementary remuneration plans for their employees such as profit sharing and retainers for a select number of members of the board. Having reached the targets set, management made provision in the amount of R$ 40,017 (R$14,358 on March 31, 2007) relating to the period ended March 31, 2008, which was posted under "salaries and social charges".

10. Financial Instruments

Estimated market values

The realization values of the Company's main financial assets and liabilities were determined using information available in the market and are consistent with the methodology used in the financial statements ending December 31, 2007, which are similar to their book values.

Derivatives

The Company purchased swap contracts at reference value of USS 70,950, for the change of exchange rate by the CDI or by pre-fixed rates, for the purpose of protecting itself from the mismatched effects of these rates in firm commitments to suppliers and interests due on perpetual bonds. On the period ended on March 31, 2008, the Company presented a financial earning of R$ 933.

11. Guarantees

The Company and some subsidiaries have signed letters of guarantee with financial institutions for the purpose of guaranteeing payment of tax suits lodged against the Companies by the Brazilian Federal Tax Authority, the Finance Departments of the States of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, and the Belo Horizonte Federal Tax Office. Letters of guarantee totaled R$ 7,569 for the parent company and R$ 243,889 for the consolidated statements.

OPERATING PERFORMANCE

The Company continued to focus its efforts on executing its strategy of accelerated growth, seeking to match return on investment with shareholder expectations. As part of this effort, NET recently launched “Net Fone.com”, a product that combines telephone services, quick access to the internet and free TV channels with high-quality image and sound.

Pay TV and Broadband client bases closed the first quarter with 2,561,000 and 1,588,000 subscribers, for increases of 35.7% and 91.3% in relation to the 1,887,000 and 830,000 subscribers at the close of 1Q07, respectively. Voice client base grew by 179.0% to 718,000 clients, from 257,000 clients in 1Q07. This strong growth is due to the strategy of pursuing alternatives for sustaining growth despite the more competitive market scenario, with investments in developing new sales channels and launching new products to improve the company's competitive positioning.

Pay TV churn rate in the last 12 months increased from 13.4% in 1Q07 to 15.9% in 1Q08, while Broadband churn rate in the last 12 months increased from 13.8% in 1Q07 to 17.9% this quarter. In both cases the increase was due to the higher disconnections in 4Q07, which are the ones used to calculate churn in the quarter. Disconnections requested by the client represented 62% of all disconnections in the quarter, for which the primary reason was a change in address to areas not covered by NET, which accounted for 24% of total voluntary disconnections.

The Company posted growth of 70.8% in Revenue Generating Units (“RGU”), from 3,232,000 in 1Q07 to 5,521,000 in 1Q08. RGUs comprise the sum of Pay TV, Broadband, Voice and Digital Video services.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

In 1Q08, Net Revenue was R$829.5 million, up 47.8% versus the R$561.2 million posted in 1Q07. The main drivers of this revenue were the expansion in the subscriber base, the migration to more advanced packages in both the Pay TV and Broadband segments, and the contractual restatement of monthly fees by the IGP-M inflation index for a portion of the existing client base. Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) in the quarter was R$133.13, growing by 6.4% from the R$125.16 in 1Q07. The main driver of ARPU growth was the migration of current clients to more sophisticated products with higher value added.

Operating Costs increased by 49.1% to R$395.1 million, from R$264.9 million in 1Q07, mainly fueled by payroll expenses, which increased by 91.0% year on year, given the need to maintain the quality targets for customer service and maintenance. Other operating costs, which primarily consist of the call center and the bandwidth capacity contracted to connect broadband subscribers to the internet, increased by 87.5 as a result of the new call center service model and the larger broadband base. Network and Subscriber Maintenance grew by 27.8%, due to contractual adjustments for pole rental and network electricity. Programming costs rose by 33.5%, driven by the expansion in the Pay TV base and the contractual price adjustments of the cost of certain channels by the IGP-M inflation index.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were R$197.4 million in 1Q08, increasing by 47.0% in relation to the R$134.3 million in 1Q07. Selling Expenses rose 36.1%, due to new campaigns and higher sales commissions, fueled by the higher sales recorded in the quarter. General and Administrative Expenses rose by 49.2%, impacted mainly by higher expenses with personnel and billing and postage.

The Bad Debt Expenses1 stood at R$11.9 million in 1Q08, increasing by 14.9% in relation to the provision of R$10.3 million in 1Q07. As a percentage of gross revenue, this provision declined from 1.4% to 1.1%, demonstrating that despite its rapid pace of growth, the Company continues to hold a healthy client portfolio.

EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization) was R$225.1 million in 1Q08, up 48.5% against the R$151.6 million in 1Q07, with EBITDA margin of 27.1 During this period of rapid expansion and for current level of net additions, the Company believes that this current level of EBITDA margin is adequate, given that Selling Expenses and costs related to customer satisfaction tend to be higher in such environments.

_________________________
1
In US GAAP, the Provision for Bad Debt increased by 29.4%, from US$5.3 million in 1Q07 to US$6.8 million in 1Q08.

31


Depreciation and Amortization Expenses totaled R$142.7 million in 1Q08, growing by 71.6% from the R$83.2 million in 1Q07. This increase was primarily due to the goodwill from the Vivax acquisition beginning to be amortized.

EBIT (earnings before interest and tax) closed the quarter practically unchanged at R$82.4 million, due to higher expenses with amortization.

The Net Financial Result in the quarter was a net financial expense of R$13.0 million, improving by 29.7% in relation to the net financial expense of R$18.5 million in 1Q07. The result was due to the following factors:

 
Net Monetary Indexation rose by 214.7%, due to the restatement of recoverable tax in the quarter of R$0.5 million, up from R$0.2 million in 1Q07. 
   
 
Net Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss) was a net gain of R$4.9 million in 1Q08, 64.4% lower than the net gain of R$13.6 million in 1Q07, mainly due to the lower foreign exchange gain on the perpetual bond issue as a result of the lower appreciation in the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar in the quarter. 
   
 
Financial Expenses declined by 28.1%, from R$49.7 million in 1Q07 to R$35.7 million in 1Q08. This improvement is explained by the elimination of the CPMF tax on financial transactions and the lower losses from foreign exchange hedge and swap positions linked to the perpetual bond and the acquisition of raw materials from foreign suppliers. 
   
 
Financial Income rose by 4.0%, from R$17.7 million in 1Q07 to R$18.4 million in 1Q08, due to the lower rate of return on financial investments. 

Net Debt in the quarter was R$543.9 million, rising by 18.1% in relation to the R$460.7 million in 1Q07, with the Net Debt/EBITDA ratio standing at 0.65x. This low level of financial leverage shows that the Company's organic growth can be supported by its own cash flow. As a result of the appreciation in the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, the percentage of foreign currency denominated debt declined from 33.9% in 1Q07 to 22.9% in 1Q08.

Total Investment (CAPEX) in the quarter was R$172.3 million. Of this amount, 77% was allocated to Client Installations, 13% to Projects, 3% to I.T. and General Investments, and 7% to digitalization project.

The Company presented a Net Income of R$32.3 million in the quarter, 29.0% higher than the net income of R$25.0 million in 1Q07. The result demonstrates that the Company continues to pursue sustainable growth with a focus on profitability, returns for shareholders and an adequate capital structure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A.

1. We have reviewed the Quarterly Information - ITR of Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. and its subsidiaries, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, comprising Company’s and consolidated balance sheets, the related statements of income, statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, the report on performance and significant information, which are the responsibility of Company’s Management.

2. We conducted our review in accordance with the specific standards of the IBRACON – Institute of Brazilian Independent Auditors, in connection with the Brazilian Association of State Boards of Accountancy, comprising mainly: (a) inquiry and discussion with those responsible for the Company’s accounting, financial and operating areas, as to the mainly criteria adopted when preparing the Quarterly Information; and (b) review the information and subsequent events that have or may have significant impacts on the Company’s and its subsidiaries financial situation and operations.

3. The law No. 11.638/07, enacted on December 28, 2007, became effectively on January 1, 2008. This law changed, revoked and introduced new provisions to the Law No. 6.404/76 (Brazilian Corporate Law) and will modify the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. Although the referred law has already gone into effect, Company’s financial statements, included on the Quarterly Information – ITR, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, does not address the changes in the accounting practices set forth in the Law No. 11.638/07, whose impacts still are being quantified by Company’s Management, as described in Note 2.

4. Based on our review, we are not aware of any significant change that should be made to the referred Quarterly Information, for it to be in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil before the effects of the adoption of the Law No. 11.638, applied in accordance with the regulations to be set by the Brazilian Securities Commission, specially applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information issued prior to the adoption of the Law No. 11.638/07.

5. The Quarterly Information of Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. and its subsidiaries for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 was reviewed by other independent auditors, who issued an unqualified report dated April 18, 2007. Additionally, the balance sheet of Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. and the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007, presented for comparison purposes, were examined by other independent auditors, who issued an unqualified opinion dated January 31, 2008.

6. We conducted our review in order to issue a report on the Quarterly Information referred to in paragraph 1. Company’s and Consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, which provide supplementary information about the Company, are not required as an integral part of the Quarterly Information, prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, prior to the adoption of the Law No. 11.638/07. Company’s and Consolidated statements of cash flows were submitted to the same review procedures described in paragraph 2 and, based on our review, we are not aware of any significant change that should be made to such supplementary information, for it to be properly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the Quarterly Information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, taken as a whole.

7. The accounting practices adopted in Brazil differ, in certain significant aspects, from the United States of America generally accepted accounting principles. The information about the nature and the effect of these differences are presented in Note 2 of the Quarterly Information.
