IDT Corporation Achieves Independent Corporate Board of Directors

NEWARK, N.J., December 9, 2002 — IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT.B, IDT), a multinational carrier, telephone and technology company, is pleased to announce that it will achieve a majority of independent directors on the IDT Corporate Board with the elimination of one inside directorship and with the appointment of one additional outside director. The changes to the board are to be effective following the IDT Board of Directors meeting on December 11, 2002. At that time the IDT Board will have 8 outside directors and 7 inside directors.

In fulfilling the new corporate mandate, IDT Corporation is pleased to welcome former U.S. Senator from Minnesota, Rudy Boschwitz and Marc J. Oppenheimer, President and CEO of Crystallex International Corporation to the IDT Board of Directors. Senator Boschwitz, currently serves on the IDT Media Board. Also, outside director, Meyer Berman, age 68, has announced his retirement from IDT’s board.

“IDT has been moving toward having an independent board for several years now. That has been our goal long before corporate scandals started making daily headlines and long before regulators deemed it necessary. We were moving toward an independent board because it was the right thing to do,” said Jim Courter, IDT’s CEO. “For IDT, just having a majority of outside directors is still not enough. We have built a Board of high caliber, strongly independent and highly distinguished individuals. It is a Board that I believe is the envy of many of America’s largest companies.”

Rudy Boschwitz was first elected to the United States Senate from Minnesota in 1978. He was re-elected in 1984, and served until 1991. Sen. Boschwitz is currently Chairman of the Advisory Committee of the Center for Global Food Issues, and a director of Friends of the World Food Program (a UN agency), the Hudson Institute, and the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. He is currently Founder and Chairman of HomeValu, Inc.

Marc Oppenheimer has served as President and CEO of Crystallex International Corporation, an emerging gold mining company, since 1995. Previously, Mr. Oppenheimer was Director of Trade and Merchant Banking with Midlantic National Bank. Mr. Oppenheimer was a senior executive in the International Department of the Commodity Financing Division at Chase Manhattan Bank. Mr. Oppenheimer earned an MBA in Finance and a Bachelor of Science degree in Management and Industrial Relations from NYU.

“I have tremendous respect for Rudy Boschwitz and Marc Oppenheimer. They are both individuals with great intelligence, integrity and business acumen,” said Howard Jonas, IDT’s Chairman. “So, if I ever get outvoted on a decision by our outside controlled board, I’ll take some comfort knowing that Rudy and Marc were there and voted their consciences.”

As part of the realignment of the IDT Corporate Board, inside director Geoffrey Rochwarger will leave the Board to become vice chairman of the Board of IDT Winstar, a subsidiary of IDT Corporation.

Also, IDT announced that Senator Frank Lautenberg will resign his position as a member of the IDT Media Board. Mr. Lautenberg was re-elected to the United States Senate and will take office in January, 2003.

IDT Corporation Leaps Ahead in the Business Week Info Tech 100 Rankings

NEWARK, N.J. – November 22, 2002 – IDT Corporation (NYSE:IDT.B, IDT), a multinational carrier, telephone and technology company, is proud to announce that it has moved up to number 44 in the Business Week Info Tech 100, a ranking of the top technology companies in the world, based on their performance over the past 12 months. IDT was previously ranked 96 on the list. The results of the comprehensive survey are published in the Monday, November 25, 2002 edition of Business Week.

“Moving up in the Business Week Info Tech 100 is really important to me, because it is not just a listing of the top telecom companies, but of the world’s top technology companies,” said Howard Jonas, Chairman, IDT Corporation. “Looking at the list, it’s evident that the companies that have relied on their monopoly status are losing ground. The future in Telecom belongs to those companies, like IDT, which can innovate and develop new technologies to provide more efficient, cost effective and reliable communications for people around the globe.”

In addition to an overall ranking of 44 in the Business Week Info Tech 100, IDT received top ranking in the “Total Shareholder Return” (TSR) category of the entire telecommunications sector. Business Week reports that IDT had a TSR of 41.7 %, which is based on data compiled by Standard & Poor’s.

“Just as communications technology evolved from the telegraph to the telephone, IDT along with IDT Winstar and Net2Phone continues to push the technological envelope even further,” said Jim Courter, IDT’s CEO and Vice Chairman. “And while we’re proud that IDT has evolved from a telecom to a ‘teletech’, it is most gratifying to see that IDT has been able to grow with measured steps, without losing sight of its responsibilities to its shareholders, customers or employees.”

In October 2002, IDT’s consumer long distance service was given a “thumbs up,” the highest ranking given by The Wall Street Journal, in its independent survey of cellular and long distance telephone companies. In the survey of long distance carriers, which included all the major carriers, including MCI, Sprint and AT&T, IDT received the best overall ratings. The Wall Street Journal survey said, “In an age of impossible-to-decipher bills, IDT stands out as an exception. The discount carrier’s rate structure is so simple (five-cents-a-minute round the clock) reading the bill doesn’t require a calculator to weed out hidden fees and charges. And the tax section includes only actual taxes, not added fees that go to the carrier.”

IDT Corporation, through its IDT Telecom subsidiary, is a facilities-based, multinational carrier that provides a broad range of telecommunications services to its retail and wholesale customers worldwide.

Winstar Gets Approval From the GSA, Federal Technology Service on Twelve Federal Metropolitan Area Acquisition Contracts

NEWARK, NJ – November 11, 2002 – Winstar, a subsidiary of IDT Corp. (NYSE: IDT.B, IDT), is pleased to announce that it has received approval from the General Services Administration’s Federal Technology Service to novate or assume twelve of its Metropolitan Area Acquisition (MAA) contracts. The novation agreement is a legal instrument that allows Winstar to be substituted in place of old Winstar Communications, Inc. in its contracts with the General Services Administration (GSA). The process of novation is used by the Federal Government to recognize a successor in interest to a Federal contract and represents the Government’s approval of the new company to fulfill these contracts.

“GSA’s approval of Winstar’s novation agreements is a landmark development for IDT and Winstar and is a resounding approval of the company’s superior fixed wireless technology,” said Jim Courter, CEO of IDT Corporation. “This is good for both Winstar and the Federal Government. It will generate significant revenue for Winstar and give government agencies access to high-quality, cost-effective and reliable telecommunication services that will enable the government to better serve all citizens.”

Since being acquired by IDT, a multinational carrier and telephone company, Winstar has been working diligently to novate these twelve Federal MAA contracts with the GSA. The old Winstar Communications originally received the MAA contracts during 2000-2001. Winstar’s fixed wireless technology has been deployed across the United States, providing broadband services to over 50,000 government telephone numbers. Winstar’s installed base of MAA services ranges from basic local dial tone to high-speed data services.

“IDT is a company known for technological innovation and these twelve MAA contracts will give Winstar the opportunity to supply the government with the finest fixed wireless technologies and services available,” said Brian Finklestein, CEO of Winstar. “This will ensure that government users, such as federal agencies, federal contractors and certain federally supported universities and laboratories can benefit from Winstar’s current suite of services as well as new technology enhancements as they become available.”

Winstar represents a high value and high quality alternative for Federal Agencies who desire broadband services whether for local dial tone, critical network infrastructure diversity solutions, redundant building access solutions, or an array of campus and metropolitan area broadband Homeland Security initiatives.

The GSA has previously relied on Winstar to provide emergency services to several government facilities for disaster recovery networking after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and continues to use Winstar to support selected agencies’ needs for business continuity networking outside of these MAA contracts.

Winstar, an IDT Company, is the reliable choice for local and long distance voice, data, high-speed Internet, and business continuity-standby networking services for business needs. Winstar’s unmatched facilities-based network utilizes fixed broadband wireless technology to deliver highly reliable, affordable services as your primary or supplemental choice to the Regional Bell Operating (RBOC) monopolies in 22 U.S. markets. Excellent customer support, superior network reliability, and the financial stability of IDT make Winstar the smart choice for your telecommunications services.

NEWARK, N.J.— October 24, 2002 —IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT.B, IDT) today reported record revenues of $416.7 million for the fourth quarter of its Fiscal Year 2002, the three months ended July 31, 2002. Revenues for the fourth quarter increased 3.8% from the third quarter, and 25.9% over the revenues recorded during the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2001. For the Fiscal Year ended July 31, 2002, IDT recorded revenues of $1.532 billion, up 24.4% from Fiscal 2001. Excluding its Winstar division, acquired in the second quarter, IDT’s revenue gains in the fourth quarter would have been 5.7% above the Q3 figure. Revenue growth for the year would have been 18.0%.

The net loss for the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002 was $78.2 million, or $0.99 per share. This compares with a net loss of $49.6 million, or $0.64 per share, in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, and a net loss of $171.8 million, or $2.44 per share, in last year’s fourth quarter.

The Company’s pro-forma fourth quarter results exclude the following four items, accounting for an $89.1 million after-tax loss:

· Non-cash impairment charges of $61.5 million, primarily related to the write-down of the TyCom fiber asset
· A loss of $20.2 million related to the results of the recently-acquired Winstar business;
· A loss of $5.8 million attributable to IDT’s noncash share of losses at Net2Phone;
· A loss of $1.6 million relating to the formation of NTOP Holdings, LLC.

Excluding these items IDT would have reported net income of $10.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the fourth quarter.

For Fiscal Year 2002, the Company recorded a net loss of $303.3 million ($4.04 per share). This compares with net income of $532.4 million ($7.12 per diluted share) in Fiscal Year 2001. Results for Fiscal Year 2002 include a non-cash, after-tax charge of $147.0 million, or $1.96 per share, related to an impairment of goodwill, in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Excluding the cumulative effect of this accounting change, the net loss for Fiscal Year 2002 amounted to $156.4 million, or $2.08 per share.

“I am about to certify IDT’s 10K financial report for the first time,” said Jim Courter, Vice Chairman and CEO. “And I am proud to do it. The IDT Telecom Division is setting records while competitors are falling by the wayside. The Company is growing responsibly, conserving its strong balance sheet. The IDT Media Division is building entertainment platforms that should develop lasting value as they mature. There is a remarkable turnaround underway in IDT’s Winstar Division.”

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

IDT recorded a loss from operations for the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002 of $141.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $42.8 million in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, and a loss of $268.6 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2001. Excluding impairment charges, the operating losses would have been $29.6 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, $42.8 million in Fiscal Q3 2002, and $74.4 million in Fiscal Q4 2001. Excluding both the impairment charges and the operating losses of the Winstar division, IDT would have produced operating profits of $4 million for the fourth quarter and an operating loss of $13.3 million for the year.

EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, and excluding minority interests and impairment charges) in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002 amounted to a loss of $10.4 million, versus a loss of $57.0 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2001 and a loss of $26.1 million in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002. Excluding the company’s Winstar division results, EBITDA would have been $19.8 million in Q4 of Fiscal Year 2002 (up from $14.8 million on that basis in Q3 of Fiscal Year 2002) and $46.0 million for all of Fiscal Year 2002.

IDT Telecom Division

The IDT Telecom core telecommunications services business enjoyed the most successful quarter in its history in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002. IDT Telecom reported record revenues of $383.6 million for the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, and $1.43 billion for Fiscal Year 2002. This represents an increase of 5.3% from the revenues recorded in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, an increase of 18.3% versus the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2001, and an increase of 18.8% over Fiscal Year 2001’s revenues. Revenue growth for Fiscal Year 2002 was driven by strong revenue gains in the retail division. Retail telecom revenues for Fiscal Year 2002 were $1.122 billion, up from $816 million in Fiscal Year 2001, an increase of 37.4%. This revenue increase more than offset the decline in the wholesale telecom business, which generated $309 million of revenues during Fiscal Year 2002, down from $388.1 million in Fiscal Year 2001, a decline of 20.4% for the year.

IDT Telecom recorded EBITDA of $29.8 million and operating income of $14.2 million for the fourth quarter, and EBITDA and operating income of $88.7 million and $30.8 million, respectively, for the year. In comparison, EBITDA was $25.6 million in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002, and IDT Telecom had an EBITDA loss of $9.9 million in Fiscal Q4 2001 and a loss of $53.4 million for all of Fiscal Year 2001. The EBITDA margin improved from 7.0% in Fiscal Q3 to 7.8% in Fiscal Q4, and amounted to 6.2% for the full fiscal year.

Gross margins for IDT Telecom amounted to 24.0% for Fiscal Q4, up from 14.7% in Fiscal Q4 2001 and virtually unchanged from the margins achieved in Q3 of Fiscal Year 2002. IDT Telecom’s gross margins for Fiscal Year 2002 increased dramatically to 22.6%, from 12.3% in Fiscal Year 2001. Margin improvements were seen across all of IDT Telecom’s major lines of business, reflecting efficiency gains and vigorous cost reduction programs. In addition, Telecom gross margins benefited from a shift in revenues toward higher-margin retail services.

Retail

IDT’s retail telecommunications services division posted $296.2 million in revenues for the fourth quarter, up 3.8% from the previous quarter, and 21.3% more than the retail revenues recorded during Fiscal Q4 of Fiscal 2001. Retail Telecom revenues for the Fiscal Year were $1.122 billion, up 37.4% from Fiscal Year 2001.

Calling Cards
Calling card revenues amounted to $263.4 million for the fourth quarter, up 3.2% from the previous quarter, and 17.9% more than the calling card revenues of the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2001. For Fiscal 2002, calling card revenues were $1.009 billion, an increase of 33.6% from 2001, as the business witnessed strong growth in both the U.S. and in Europe.

Gross margins for calling cards were 24.1% in Fiscal Q4 2002, unchanged from the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2002 level but considerably improved from 14.9% in Fiscal Year 2001’s final quarter. Margins for calling cards continued to benefit from increased scale, network efficiency improvements and reduced termination costs to the Company’s highest-volume calling destinations.

IDT Expands Puerto Rico Customer Service Center

Newark, NJ & San Juan, Puerto Rico – October 23, 2002 – IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT.B, IDT), a leading multinational carrier and telecommunications company, announced the expansion of its Puerto Rico Customer Service Center. The IDT Puerto Rico division and the service center were established two years ago to handle Spanish-language calls from Hispanic customers on the US mainland. IDT Puerto Rico & Company plans to double the center’s capacity and create 120 additional jobs on the Island.

The expansion will enable IDT’s Puerto Rico Customer Service Center to handle as much as 95 percent of all customer service calls originating from the U.S. and South America. The company will now process more than 11,000 daily transactions through its local call center—a 51% increase from the current amount of transactions. Customer Service Center personnel provide general orientation, answer usage and billing questions on more than 200 types of calling cards and other products and services.

“When we established our Customer Service Center in Rio Piedras two years ago, our goal was to provide service to our Spanish-speaking retail card customers in the U.S. In two short years the operation has grown to handle most of all US and South America calls,” said James Courter, Vice Chairman and CEO of IDT Corporation. “Much of the credit for our success goes to the hard work of our employees on the island. In fact it was the highly educated, bilingual and high quality workforce that initially attracted us to Puerto Rico.”

“We envision a strong and lasting relationship with Puerto Rico,” said Doug Mauro, President of IDT Puerto Rico & Company. “The cooperation we have received from the local government, the productivity and dedication to quality of our local team and the opportunities for growth have all been very positive and could lead to further expansion in Puerto Rico in the future.”

IDT first established offices and a call center in Puerto Rico in July of 2000. In two years, IDT’s operation in Puerto Rico grew from 20 employees to 115 and now handles more than 150,000 calls monthly, which is 44% of all of IDT’s customer service calls for South America and the U.S.
