Results of the first two quarters reflect ITC's sale of 90 percent of its Intermountain Telephone Corp. to TIE Communications Inc. in April. The sale took ITC out of the telecommunications hardware business and provided capital to focus on long distance resale and private network services, a spokesman said.
