           NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
- ------------------------------

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wilmar
Industries, Inc. ("Wilmar" or the "Company") and its subsidiaries.  Inter-
company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, such interim statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods presented.  The results of operations for these interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending
December 31, 1999.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the
Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 1998.

Note 2 - Accounting Policies
- ----------------------------

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", which establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as "derivatives") and for
hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure
those instruments at fair value.  The effective date for this statement
(originally for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15,
1999) has been delayed until July 1, 2000.  Management has not yet determined
what effect, if any, this statement will have on the Company.

Note 3 - Acquisition
- --------------------

On July 30, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets of The Mini Blind Company
("Mini Blind"), a distributor of vertical and mini blinds to the multi-family or
apartment housing market, based in San Antonio, TX.  The total purchase price of
the acquisition was paid in cash.  Goodwill and other intangibles recorded in
connection with this acquisition are being amortized on a straight-line basis.
The acquisition is being accounted for using the Purchase method.


Note 4 - Income Taxes
- ---------------------

The Company provides for income taxes based upon SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach to financial
accounting and reporting for income taxes.

Note 5 - Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share
- --------------------------------------------------------------

Net income per share presented for all periods have been computed in accordance
with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic net income per share is computed
by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period,
assuming dilution.

   The amounts used in calculating net income per share data are as follows:

Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended September 24, 1999 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 25,
1998.

Net Sales.  Net sales increased by $17.1 million, or 11.8%, to $162.4 million
for the nine months ended September 24, 1999 from $145.3 million for the
corresponding period in 1998. This increase was attributable to continuing
penetration of existing sales territories, sales force additions, the Company's
telesales effort and increased sales to national accounts.  Sales attributable
to the existing sales force (salesmen employed for all of both periods)
increased 9.1%. In addition, the acquisitions of certain assets of Apartment
Cleaning Supply and Pool Supply, Inc. ("ACSPS"), the California-based American
Maintenance Supply, Inc. ("AMS-CA"), the Nevada-based American Maintenance
Supply, Inc. ("AMS-NV"), Kurzon Supply Company, Inc. ("Kurzon"), and The Mini
Blind Company ("Mini Blind"), which occurred in June 1998, March 1998, May 1998,
November 1998 and July 1999, respectively, also contributed to the Company's
growth.  Price increases during both periods were modest and made only on
selected items.  During the nine months ended September 24, 1999, Wilmar
generated approximately $8.5million in net sales to new end markets as a result
of the Company's decision to target customers outside its core apartment housing
market.

Gross Profit.  Cost of sales includes merchandise, freight, distribution center
occupancy and delivery costs.   As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was
29.2% for the nine months ended September 24, 1999 compared to 28.9% for the
corresponding period in 1998. The increase is attributable to the July 1998
divestiture of our high-end appliance division, as well as the Company's
continuing merchandising efforts.

Operating and Selling Expenses.  Operating and selling expenses consist of labor
and other costs associated with operating a distribution center as well as
selling expenses and commissions.  Operating and selling expenses increased by
$2.7 million, or 13.9%, to $22.5 million for the nine months ended September 24,
1999 from $19.8 million for the corresponding period in 1998.  As a percentage
of net sales, these expenses represented 13.9% for the nine months ended
September 24, 1999 compared to 13.6% for the corresponding period in 1998.  This
increase was primarily due to the Company's continual investment in its field
sales force.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses.  Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased by $1.1 million or 13.7%, to $9.3 million for
the nine months ended September 24, 1999 from $8.2 million for the corresponding
period in 1998. This increase is primarily the result of the enhanced staffing
required to manage a larger volume of business. As a percentage of net sales,
corporate general and administrative expenses represented 5.7% for the nine
months ended September 24, 1999 and 5.6% for the corresponding period in 1998.

Operating Income.  Operating income increased by $1.6 million, or 11.5%, to
$15.7 million for the nine months ended September 24, 1999 from $14.1 million
for the corresponding period in 1998.  As a percentage of net sales, operating
income was 9.7% for both the nine months ended September 24, 1999 and September
25, 1998.

Interest Income.  Net interest income for the nine months ended September 24,
1999 was $901,000 and $1.1 million for the corresponding period in 1998. The
interest income occurred as a result of the investment income from the proceeds
of the secondary public offering completed in July 1996. The decrease in
interest income was a result of the Company's stock repurchase program. During
the first six month of 1999 the Company repurchased one million shares of common
stock at an average price of $12.80.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 24, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended September
25, 1998

Net Sales.  Net sales increased by  $6.5 million, or 12.5%, to $58.6 million for
the three months ended September 24, 1999 from $52.1 million for the
corresponding period in 1998. This increase was attributable to continuing
penetration of existing sales territories, sales force additions, the Company's
telesales effort, and increased sales to national accounts.  Sales attributable
to the existing sales force (salesmen employed for all of both periods)
increased 9.0%.  In addition the acquisitions of certain assets of Kurzon and
Mini Blind which occurred in November 1998 and July 1999, respectively, also
contributed to the Company's growth.  Price increases during both periods were
modest and made only on selected items.  During the three months ended September
24, 1999, Wilmar generated approximately $3.0 million in net sales to new end
markets as a result of the Company's decision to target customers outside its
core apartment housing market.

Gross Profit.  Cost of sales includes merchandise, freight, distribution center
occupancy and delivery costs.  As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was
28.7% for the three months ended September 24, 1999 compared to 28.9 % for the
corresponding period in 1998.  This slight decrease in the gross margin was a
result of the Company's decision to invest in improved delivery service for
existing customers, as well as to better penetrate new geographic markets and
regions where a local distribution center is not located.

Operating and Selling Expenses.  Operating and selling expenses consist of labor
and other costs associated with operating a distribution center as well as
selling expenses and commissions.  Operating and selling expenses increased by
$851,000, or 12.4%, to $7.7 million for the three months ended September 24,
1999 from $6.9 million for the corresponding period in 1998.  As a percentage of
net sales, these expenses represented 13.2% for the three months ended September
24, 1999 and September 25, 1998. The percent of sales remained constant even
though the Company continued to invest in addition field sales representatives.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses.  Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased by $553,000, or 20.9%, to $3.2 million for the
three months ended September 24, 1999 from $2.6 million for the corresponding
period in 1998. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses represented 5.5%
for the three months ended September 24, 1999 and 5.1% for the corresponding
period in 1998.  This increase is primarily the result of the enhanced staffing
required to manage a larger volume of business.

Operating Income.  Operating income increased by $366,000 or 6.6%, to $5.9
million for the three months ended September 24, 1999 from $5.5 million for the
corresponding period in 1998. As a percentage of net sales, operating income was
10.1% for the three months ended September 24, 1999 and 10.6% for the
corresponding period in 1998.

Interest Income.  Net interest income for the three months ended September 24,
1999 was $254,000 and $363,000 for the corresponding period in 1998. The
interest income occurred as a result of the investment income from the proceeds
of the secondary public offering completed in July 1996. The decrease in
interest income was a result of the Company's stock repurchase program. During
the first six month of 1999 the Company repurchased one million shares of common
stock at an average price of $12.80.

of Operations, Continued

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 24, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended September
25, 1998

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, Wilmar's primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from
operations, supplemented by borrowings under its bank line of credit to support
increases in accounts receivable and inventory, net of accounts payable, and the
public sale of its securities.

On March 19, 1999, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had
approved a stock buyback program whereby it may repurchase up to one million
shares of its common stock. Such repurchases may be made from time to time in
open market transactions at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated
transactions on terms mutually agreed upon. As of May 11, 1999, the Company had
repurchased one million shares at an average price of $12.80 per share.

Cash provided by operating activities was $10.9 million during the nine months
ended September 24, 1999 compared to $1.4 million of cash provided by operating
activities during the corresponding period in 1998.  Cash provided by operating
activities during the nine months ended September 24, 1999 consisted of  $10.2
million of net income before adding back depreciation and amortization and other
non-cash charges, decreased  $1.1 million by changes in operating assets and
liabilities. This primarily resulted from a $6.5 million increase in accounts
payable, accrued expenses and income tax payable as well as a $877,000 decrease
in inventory offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $8.5 million.

Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 24,
1999 was $2.0 million, which consisted of approximately $1.4 million for the
purchase of property and equipment and $600,000 relating to the acquisition of
The Mini Blind Company.

Cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 1999 was
approximately $13.9 million, consisting of approximately $1.2 million used for
repayment of notes, $12.8 million for the purchase of stock for treasury offset
by proceeds of $93,000 received from the exercise of stock options.

Capital expenditures were $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 24,
1999 compared to $1.2 million for the corresponding period in 1998. Capital
expenditures for the first nine months of 1999 were primarily for the
improvement and updating of the Company's distribution centers, and the
integration of its new supply fulfillment system. The Company intends to finance
its future capital expenditures with cash flow from operations and possibly with
a portion of the previous public offerings, term debt or capital leases.

Wilmar's credit facilities consist of two unsecured bank lines of credit
totaling $15 million. These lines of credit had zero balances at September 24,
1999.  In 1999, the Company renewed an existing $10 million unsecured bank line
of credit, which bears interest at three quarter percent below the bank's prime
rate, as well as a $5 million unsecured bank line of credit, which bears
interest at the bank's prime rate. These credit facilities expire in December
1999.  The Company anticipates renewing these credit facilities as they expire.
The Company believes it could increase the amount of these credit facilities if
needed, although there can be no assurance that it could do so on equally or
more favorable terms.

The Company believes that its existing cash balances, supplemented by borrowings
under the revolving line of credit, are adequate to meet planned operating and
capital expenditure needs at least through 1999.  However, if the Company were
to make any significant acquisitions for cash, it might be necessary for the
Company to obtain additional debt or equity financing.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, Continued

Year 2000 Compliance

The Company recognizes that the arrival of the Year 2000 ("Y2K") poses a
worldwide challenge to the ability of all systems to recognize the date change
from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000. The Company has completed its
assessment of in-house maintained software, third party software and systems.
All identification and remediation unit testing and system testing of Y2K
related systems issues have been completed.

All costs associated with the Y2K project to date have been expensed as
incurred. These costs have not been and are not anticipated to be material to
the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows in any
given year, and such cost has been and is expected to continue to be funded from
the Company's operations.  The Company's total estimated cost of the Y2K
compliance program is approximately $50,000 to $100,000. A significant portion
of these costs are not likely to be incremental costs to the Company, but rather
will represent the redeployment of existing information technology resources.
The Company has the necessary resources in-house to complete all required Y2K
remediation.

Based on it's review, the Company does not believe the transition from 1999 to
2000 will have any adverse effect on operations attributable to any of its
computerized systems.  However, there is no guarantee that computing systems and
associated applications of other companies with which the Company conducts
business will be converted on a timely basis or that a failure by said companies
to address their Y2K compliance problems would not have a material adverse
impact on the Company.

Contingency plans reflect analysis of risks associated with year 2000 related
issues pertaining to product supply, services and system support. In connection
with these analysis, the Company has identified alternative sources related to
product supply, services and system support. Surveys of key vendors and plans
for closely monitoring inventory levels at the close of 1999 gives the Company
confidence that merchandise stock levels and the Company's ability to ship
merchandise will not be adversely affected by vendors' Y2K systems issues.
