ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Overview
We operate facilities at strategic locations around the world from which we assist users of the Internet and large communications networks in communicating with other users and networks. Our primary facility is the NAP of the Americas, where we provide exchange point, colocation and managed services to carriers, Internet service providers, network service providers, government entities, multi-national enterprises and other end users.
Network access points are locations where two or more networks meet to interconnect and exchange Internet and data traffic (traffic of data, voice, images, video and all forms of digital telecommunications), much like air carriers meet at airports to exchange passengers and cargo. Instead of airlines and transportation companies, however, participation in NAPs comes from telecommunications carriers, Internet service providers and large telecommunications and Internet users in general. Tier-1 NAPs are large centers that access and distribute Internet traffic and, following the airport analogy, operate much like large, international airport passenger and cargo transportation terminals or hubs.
Initially, four NAPs in New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago, and San Francisco were created and supported by the National Science Foundation as part of the transition from the United States government-financed Internet to a commercially operated Internet. Since that time, privately owned NAPs have been developed, including the NAP of the Americas. We refer to our facilities as TerreNAP Centers.
Our TerreNAP Centers are carrier-neutral. We enable our customers to freely choose from among the many carriers available at TerreNAP Centers the carriers with which they wish to do business. We believe the carrier neutrality provides us with a competitive advantage when compared to carrier-operated network access points where customers are limited to conducting business with one carrier.
The NAP of the Americas generates revenue by providing our customers with:
| | the site and platform they need to exchange Internet and data traffic; | |
| | a menu of related professional and managed services; and | |
| | space to house their equipment and their network facilities in order to be close to the Internet and data traffic exchange connections that take place at the NAP of the Americas. |
Currently, our customers include telecommunications carriers such as AT&T, MCI, Qwest and Sprint, enterprises such as Bacardi USA, Intrado and Crescent Heights, and government agencies including the Diplomatic Telecommunications Services Programming Office (DTSPO), a division of the United States Department of State, and the City of Coral Gables.
On April 28, 2000, Terremark Holdings, Inc. completed a reverse merger with AmTec, Inc., a public company. Contemporaneous with the reverse merger, we changed our corporate name to Terremark Worldwide, Inc. and adopted TWW as our trading symbol on the American Stock Exchange. Historical information of the surviving company is that of Terremark Holdings, Inc.
Terremark was formed in 1982 and, along with its subsidiaries, was engaged in the development, sale, leasing, management and financing of various real estate projects. Terremark provided these services to private and institutional investors, as well as for its own account. The real estate projects with which Terremark was involved included retail, high-rise office buildings, mixed-use projects, condominiums, hotels and governmental assisted housing. Terremark was also involved in a number of ancillary businesses that complemented its core development operations. Specifically, Terremark engaged in brokering financial services, property management, construction management, condominium hotel management, residential sales and commercial leasing and brokerage, and advisory services.
2
After the April 28, 2000 merger, and as a result of changes in our business conditions, including market changes in the telecommunications industry and the lack of debt and equity financing vehicles to fund other business expansion, we began to redefine and focus our strategy, and began implementing a plan to exit all lines of business and real estate activities not directly related to the TerreNAP Center strategy. Lines of business discontinued included IP fax services, unified messaging services, and telephony. Non-core real estate activities exited included real estate development, property management, financing and the ancillary businesses that complemented the real estate development operations. Our real estate activities currently include technology construction work and management of the property where the NAP of the Americas is located. As of March 31, 2002, we had completed the exit of lines of business and real estate activities not related to our TerreNAP Center strategy.
Our principal executive office is located at 2601 S. Bayshore Drive, Miami, Florida 33133. Our telephone number is (305) 856-3200.
Industry
The Internet is a collection of many independent networks interconnected with each other to form a network of networks. Users on different networks are able to communicate with each other through interconnection between these networks. To accommodate the fast growth of traffic over the Internet, an organized approach for network interconnection was needed. The exchange of traffic between these networks became known as peering. The points and places where these networks exchange traffic, or peer, with each other are known as network access points, or NAPs.
Since the beginning of the Internet, major traffic aggregation and exchange points have developed around the world. The first four Tier-1 NAPs were built in the United States in the early 1990s to serve the northern part of the country, from East Coast to West Coast, and are located in New York, Washington, Chicago and San Francisco. These NAPs were built with sponsorship from the National Science Foundation in order to promote Internet development and used the existing infrastructures of telecommunication companies, to which ownership of the NAPs was eventually transferred. These four Tier-1 NAPs offer only connectivity services.
We own and operate the only carrier-neutral Tier-1 NAP, which is known as the NAP of the Americas, located at 50 NE 9th Street, Miami, Florida 33132, approximately five miles from our corporate headquarters. The NAP of the Americas enables customers to locate equipment next to each other, and provides customers with other managed services. Using the airport analogy again, customers at the NAP of the Americas exchange and redirect Internet and data traffic to multiple destinations, and purchase various managed services, similar to what happens in air terminals with the provision of fuel, maintenance, spare parts and food. The exchange of Internet traffic without payment is known as peering. When a fee is paid, it is referred to as transit.
During the past few years, the telecommunications and Internet industry has come under economic and commercial pressure to restructure and reduce costs. While this uncertain environment has presented us with some challenges that are more fully discussed below, there have been some positive effects for us resulting from the current industry situation. For example, as many telecom and Internet companies have been forced to reduce their overhead, the market of talented employees available to us has increased. As a result, we have been able to build a robust operations and engineering team, thereby reducing our reliance on third party vendors and consultants.
Another positive side effect of the industry downturn is that many telecommunications carriers have discontinued plans to build their own data centers to provide high quality colocation space for their customers. This retrenchment, however, did not reduce the telecommunications carriers need to present their customers with competitive offerings that include highly conditioned, carrier-grade colocation facilities. We built the NAP of the Americas specifically to address the needs of these telecommunications and enterprise customers and to provide them with an alternative to making these expenditures. Consequently, we believe that the NAP of the Americas has become an attractive solution for these telecommunications carriers because it provides a carrier-neutral forum the airport for these companies to sell their connectivity and still maintain direct

Strategy
The NAP of the Americas created a new business model for NAPs by providing customers with:
| | the connectivity of a world-class NAP in a carrier-neutral facility; | |
| | the ability to locate equipment next to other customers; and | |
| | managed services meeting the design and operational specifications of multinational carriers, enterprises and government customers. |
Our strategy is to leverage our major connectivity hubs to sell services to customers within and outside of our TerreNAP Centers. For example, we are currently designing, implementing and managing the deployment of a global commercial Internet access solution for the Diplomatic Telecommunications Service Program Office, under three publicly awarded contracts, to satisfy their requirements at designated locations overseas. Although the NAP of the Americas serves as the hub to manage this solution, we are leveraging our international carrier relationships to provide this customer with connectivity and technology solutions to communicate with U.S. government locations around the world.
In an effort to limit the additional capital required, our business model for expansion is best compared to that of a management company model in the hospitality industry. The model contemplates that a local in-country partner would own and fund the development and build-out of the facility in which the TerreNAP Center would be located. The facility would ideally be a new development built to the exacting specifications required for a top level NAP (as is the case in Miami), but it may be located in an existing building that is retrofitted to conform to those specifications. We intend to control the operations of the NAP and be the primary tenant in our partners building, sharing data center and services revenue via a long-term lease or management contract.
In February 2002, we entered into an agreement with Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo, the research foundation for the State of Sao Paulo, to operate and manage the NAP created by FAPESP, which we have renamed the NAP do Brasil. Pursuant to the twenty year agreement, FAPESP turned over the network access point to Terremark, which we intend to enhance and intend to move to new facilities modeled after the operational design of the NAP of the Americas by the end of 2003. Pre-existing FAPESP customers have the right to continue to receive services at the then existing levels without payment until February 2004. FAPESP will receive 6% of the revenue generated by the enhanced NAP do Brazil for the first five years of operation, 5% during the following five years, and 1% during the last ten years. The term may be extended for an additional ten-year period, during which FAPESP would again receive 1% of the revenues. As of June 13, 2003, we have 30 customers in Brazil. For the year ended March 31, 2003, our Brazilian operations generated losses of approximately $605,000.
In June 2002, we entered into an exclusive agreement with the Comunidad Autonoma de Madrid to develop and operate carrier-neutral network access points in Spain. As part of that agreement, the parties formed NAP de las Americas Madrid S.A. to own and operate carrier-neutral NAPs in Spain, modeled after the NAP of the Americas. The shareholders in this new company are the Comunidad through its Instituto Madrileno de Desarrollo IMADE, the Camara Oficial de Comercio e Industria de Madrid, Red Electrica Telecomunicaciones, S.A., Telvent Sistemas y Redes S.A., a subsidiary of Abengoa S.A., and Centro de Transportes de Coslada, S.A. (CTC). At the time the NAP de las Americas Madrid S.A. was formed, we owned 1% of its equity, which we subsequently increased to 10%. We have the option to purchase up to another 30% of the shares owned by the Comunidad, CTC and the Camara at cost, plus LIBOR. We provided the technical and operational know-how for the development of an interim NAP which became operational in July 2002. We will work with NAP de Las Americas Madrid S.A. to select a permanent site, design the Madrid NAP and operate the business going forward. During the year ended March 31, 2003, we recognized approximately $340,000 in revenues from services billed to the NAP de Las Americas Madrid S.A.

When the facilities in Brazil and Madrid are operational, we will have TerreNAP Centers located at three major crossroads of Internet and data traffic. Miami, the home of the NAP of the Americas, is ranked by Telegeography, researcher and publisher of international telecom statistics, in its Packet Geography 2002, as the number one International Internet Hub City for Latin America and the Caribbean. Sao Paulo, where the NAP do Brasil is located, is ranked second and Madrid is ranked eighteenth of the Top 50 International Internet Hub Cities in the world. We believe the Madrid network access point will also benefit from Madrids strategic geographic location by serving as an Internet gateway to the European Union, North Africa and the Americas.
We continue to explore other locations and have targeted Mexico as a prospective hub city in Latin America.
Value Proposition
The combination of connectivity, neutrality and quality of our facilities allows us to provide the following value proposition to our customers at the NAP of the Americas:
| | Carrier-neutrality: Carriers and other customers are willing to locate their equipment within our facility because we neither discriminate against nor give preference to any individual or group of customers. Locating equipment at a NAP is known in the industry as colocation. | |
| | Connectivity: Our customers can access any of the more than 50 network providers present at the NAP of the Americas. | |
| | Zero-Mile Access: Because the NAP of the Americas provides carrier-grade colocation space directly adjacent to the point at which the traffic is exchanged, there is effectively zero distance between the peering point and customers equipment, which reduces points of failure and cost and increases efficiency, and creates a new paradigm, connecting all participants at a distance of zero miles. | |
| | Service Level Agreements: The NAP of the Americas guarantees its customers 100% power availability and environmental stability. | |
| | Outsourcing of Services: Because of the NAP of the Americas staffs expertise, our customers find it more cost effective to contract the TerreNAP Team to design, deploy, operate and manage their equipment and networks at the NAP of the Americas than to hire dedicated staff to perform those functions. | |
| | Lower Costs, Increased Efficiency and Quality of Service: The combination of these attributes helps our customers reduce their total costs of providing services to their customers by eliminating local loop charges to connect their facility to the peering point, backhaul charges to and from connecting points, and the cost of redundancy to mitigate risks associated with increased points of failure along these routes. |
Furthermore, in the wake of September 11 and given the heightened focus on homeland security, we are focusing on meeting the security sensitive technology needs of federal, state and local governments, as well as large enterprises. Our value proposition to this sector revolves around our security, critical mass of Internet and data connectivity and carrier neutrality.
Services
We currently offer the following core services:
| Exchange Point Service: The NAP of the Americas provides a service called Exchange Point Service, which is designed to facilitate both peering and the purchase of transit, among customers. | |
| Colocation Services: The NAP of the Americas provides the physical environment necessary to keep a customers Internet and telecommunications equipment up and running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This facility is custom designed to exceed industry standards for electrical and environmental systems.

Sales
Our sales strategy has a deliberate approach to obtain new customers. Initially, we established the critical mass of customer connectivity and Tier-1 status for the NAP of the Americas. We accomplished this by signing contracts with the Tier-1 telecommunications carriers and Internet service providers that account for the majority of the worlds Internet and data fiber backbone. This created the critical mass of connectivity that differentiates the NAP of the Americas from other facilities that offer a limited choice of carriers. We successfully completed this phase during the second quarter of fiscal year 2002 and have continued to add carrier customers to our portfolio to ensure the best possible selection of connectivity for our current and future customers.
With the NAP of the Americas positioned as the major connectivity point in the southern United States and in all of Latin America, in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002, we started focusing on selling our services to enterprises and government agencies by leveraging our critical mass of Internet and data connectivity. We have developed offerings that address the needs of large enterprises and government agencies that benefit from colocating their information systems in a carrier-neutral secure facility with access to multiple carriers. We believe that this approach has been very successful.
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2002, we also focused on leveraging our engineering and operations expertise to provide a targeted portfolio of managed services, particularly network and systems provisioning and operations services. This program has been successful, and a number of customers have entered into exclusive service agreements that call for our staff to provide all needed managed services for their equipment at the NAP of the Americas, including engineering, installation and on-going operations. We intend to continue introducing new services based on customer demand.
To execute our sales strategy, we have a staff of experienced sales executives divided into a new sales group and a service managers group. The new sales group is focused on establishing new customer relationships. The service managers group works with our existing customers to better understand how we can add value to their operations, expand our services and ensure customer satisfaction.
Competition
The NAP of the Americas is neither a traditional data center, nor a traditional NAP. Unlike the other four Tier-1 NAPs in the United States, the NAP of the Americas combines exchange point services (to facilitate peering) with carrier-grade colocation space and managed services. Consequently, we believe that the NAP of the Americas is competitively unique and can only be replicated through the expenditures of significant funds over a lengthy period, an unlikely event in todays telecommunications environment.
We believe that carriers and Internet service providers have no need to be in two different NAPs serving the same geographic area. Therefore, to the extent that carriers are located in the NAP of the Americas and have already invested significant funds to establish their presence at the NAP of the Americas, this is an incentive for them to remain our customers. In addition, a competing NAP would require the backing of carriers and Internet service providers serving this area, most of which are already our customers.
However, our current and potential competition includes:
| | Internet data centers operated by established U.S. communications carriers such as AT&T, Qwest, and Level3. Unlike the major network providers, which constructed data centers primarily to help sell bandwidth, we have assembled a critical mass of carrier connectivity in one location, providing superior diversity, pricing and performance. Carrier data centers only provide one choice of carriers and generally require capacity minimums as part of their pricing structures. Locating in our TerreNAP Centers provides access to top tier networks and allows customers to negotiate the best prices with a number of carriers resulting in better economics and redundancy. |
8
| | Vertically integrated web site hosting, collocation and ISP companies such as AboveNet/ MFN, Digex/ WorkCom and Cable & Wireless/ Exodus. Most managed service providers require that customers purchase their entire network and managed services directly from them. We are a network and service provider hub and allow customers the ability to contract directly with the networks and web-hosting partner best for their business. By locating in a TerreNAP Center, hosting companies add more value to our business proposition by bringing in more partners and customers and thus creating a virtual market place. |
Employees
As of March 31, 2003, we had 131 full-time employees in the United States and four full-time employees in Brazil. Of these employees, 60 were in data center operations, 22 were in sales and marketing and 49 were in general and administrative.
Our employees are not represented by a labor union and are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.
| ITEM 2. | PROPERTIES. |
