Nortel Networks to Provide U.S. and Canadian GAAP Reporting effective
January 1, 2000 and provides Outlook for Performance in 2000.
BRAMPTON, Ontario - In anticipation of providing financial reporting in
accordance with both U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and
Canadian GAAP for periods beginning after January 1, 2000, Nortel Networks*
(NYSE/TSE: NT) today issued reported and supplementary financial information
prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
"The decision to provide U.S. GAAP financial reporting in addition to Canadian
GAAP financial reporting was driven by a desire to make it easier for our
shareholders and the investment community to assess our financial performance"
said Frank Dunn, Nortel Networks'senior vice-president and chief financial
officer. "Given that Canadian GAAP is harmonizing with U.S. GAAP in a number of
areas starting in 2000, it makes sense for us to provide complete U.S. GAAP
financial reporting at that time."
Focusing on anticipated U.S. GAAP financial results for 2000, Dunn stated, "We
expect our revenue growth will exceed the market growth rate of 14 to 15 percent
by about 3 percentage points and anticipate growth in our earnings per share
from operations** to be faster than our revenue growth."
Nortel Networks delivers value to customers around the world through Unified
Networks* solutions, spanning mission-critical telephony and IP-optimized
networks. Customers include public and private enterprises and institutions;
Internet service providers; local, long-distance, cellular and PCS
communications companies; cable television carriers; and utilities.
Nortel Networks'common shares are listed on the New York, Toronto, Montreal and

US$17.6 billion and has approximately 70,000 employees worldwide.

subject to important risks and uncertainties. The results or events predicted in

conditions, particularly in emerging markets and including interest rate and
currency exchange rate fluctuations; unanticipated impact of Year 2000 issues;
and the impact of consolidations in the telecommunications industry. For

v Audited information.
(1) Under Canadian GAAP, the deferral method is used to record tax expense
whereas U.S. GAAP follows the liability method. The primary difference is
that under the deferral method, tax liabilities are recorded at historical
tax rates and not subsequently readjusted if tax rates change. Under U.S.
GAAP, tax liabilities are restated to reflect current tax rates.
(2) An income tax benefit associated with deductible stock option compensation
is available in connection with the exercise of stock options by U.S.
employees. The income tax benefit is equal to the difference between the
market price on the date of exercise and the grant price. Under Canadian
GAAP, the income tax benefit can be treated as a reduction to the income
tax provision if the stock option compensation costs are not recorded.
Under U.S. GAAP, the income tax benefit associated with the stock option
compensation is treated as an increase in share capital.
(3) Under Canadian GAAP, companies may use a pay-as-you-go method (that is,
expenses charged to the income statement as incurred). Under U.S. GAAP,
expenses related to these benefits must be accrued during the years that
employees provide services to the company.
(4) Under U.S. GAAP, companies are required to record mark-to-market
adjustments on financial instruments that do not meet the specific criteria
for hedge accounting. The adjustment represents the difference between
hedge accounting for cross currency coupon swap contracts under Canadian
GAAP, and the recognition of the mark-to-market differential through the
income statement for this specific type of financial instrument.
(5) Under Canadian GAAP, investments in joint ventures are recognized in the
financial statements of the venturer by applying the proportionate
consolidation method of accounting. Under U.S. GAAP, investments in joint
ventures are recognized in the financial statements of the venturer under
the equity method of accounting.
(6) There are other U.S./Canadian GAAP differences which do not effect the
above earnings per share amounts. Under Canadian GAAP, investment tax
credits are accounted for on a cost reduction method and are therefore
treated as a reduction to the research and development expense. Under U.S.
GAAP, investment tax credits are accounted for on a flow-through method
via the tax provision.
