SAN FRANCISCO (Dow Jones)--Excite@Home (ATHM) Chief Financial Officer Ken
Goldman said he expects the company to surpass at least one of its 2000 targets:
signing up 2.5 million to 2.8 million new subscribers.

The company's other goals include increasing revenue 75% over the 1999 tally
of $421 million and posting an operating profit for the year, he said.

Analysts surveyed by First Call/Thomson Financial expect the company to earn
10 cents a share for 2000. Goldman declined to comment on the current estimate.

Excite Chairman Tom Jermoluk said the company is on track to meet its 2002
target of $2 billion in revenue and operating profit equal to 35% of revenue.

The Redwood City, Calif., cable Internet access provider and Web site operator
now serves 4.8% of the 72 million homes that it can reach through cable
hook-ups, Jermoluk said. The company now has marketing capabilities and
experience that enable it to achieve 6% penetration within six months of gaining
access to a new cable system, he said.
