Business Summary
Global TeleSystems Group, Inc. (GTS) provides broadband services to traditional carriers, Internet service providers, application service providers, other Web-centric entities and data-intensive pan-European corporations. This focus is the result of a restructuring announced in November 2000. The objective of the restructuring is to position the Company as a data and Internet services-only provider. As part of the restructuring, the Company reorganized into four stand-alone business units: GTS Broadband Services (which was rebranded Ebone in January 2001); GTS Business Services; GTS Central Europe; and Golden Telecom, Inc. (Golden Telecom), and announced that it intended to sell the portion of its Business Services focused on serving small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and providing voice and voice-based services. The Business Services units are primarily comprised of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Global TeleSystems (Europe) Limited, formerly Esprit Telecom Group plc.
