               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Participants and Trustees
Ingram Micro 401(k) Investment Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for plan
benefits of the Ingram Micro 401(k) Investment Savings Plan as of December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits with fund information for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Ingram
Micro 401(k) Investment Savings Plan as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                        NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following description of the Ingram Micro 401(k) Investment Savings Plan
(the "Plan") provides only general information. The name of the Plan, previously
known as the Ingram Micro Thrift Plan, was changed effective January 1, 1999.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description
of the Plan's provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all of the
employees of Ingram Micro Inc. (the "Company") who have completed three months
of eligibility service. The Plan is designed to comply with Section 401(a) of
the Internal Revenue Code as a defined contribution plan and its incorporated
Trust is intended to qualify as a tax-exempt trust under Section 501(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee
Retirement and Security Act of 1974. The Plan is administered by the Company and
advised by the Benefit Administrative Committee appointed by the Company. The
assets of the Plan are held and invested by Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company
("Putnam"), acting as trustee, custodian and recordkeeper.

RECEIPT OF SPLIT-OFF PLAN ASSETS

The Plan became effective on November 6, 1996 as a result of the split-off of
Ingram Micro Inc. from Ingram Industries, Inc. in a tax-free reorganization. As
a result of the reorganization, Ingram Micro's participant account balances were
transferred out of the Ingram Industries Thrift Plan pursuant to an employee
benefits agreement. A separate trust account was established at Wachovia Bank to
accept the Plan's proportionate share of Ingram Industries Thrift Plan's assets.
The Plan's assets were temporarily invested during a period in December 1996 to
January 2, 1997, in mainly highly liquid, short-term investments in preparation
for the final conversion to Putnam. The Plan was amended effective January 2,
1997 as a result of the change in plan asset custodians.

CONTRIBUTIONS AND FUNDING POLICY

Each associate who actively participates in the Plan may elect to contribute a
minimum of 1% and a maximum of 15% of his or her salary to be paid to the Plan
trustee. The Company will match from 50% to 100% of participant contributions up
to the first 5% of annual salary depending upon the years of service. The
Benefit Administrative Committee of the Company can elect to change the
Company's matching contribution in future years. The Company may also make
discretionary contributions under the Plan. The Company did not make any
discretionary contributions to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 1998
and 1997. The maximum participant elective contributions allowed under the Plan
for the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 were $10,000 and $9,500,
respectively.

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


PARTICIPATION ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and
allocations of a) the Company contribution and, b) plan earnings, and charged
with an allocation of certain expenses. Allocations are based on account
balances.

ELIGIBILITY

Associates other than those that are employed under a collective bargaining
agreement, leased, expatriates or employed on a temporary basis are eligible to
enter the Plan on the first day of the month following the third month of
employment with the Company.

VESTING

Vesting in the Company's matching contribution is based on years of service. A
year of vesting service is defined as any period in which a participant
completes 365 days of service. The following schedule describes the vesting
percentages for participants.

                                                          Vested Benefit
                Years of Service                            Percentage
                ----------------                            ----------
             1 year but less than 2                              20%
             2 years but less than 3                             40%
             3 years but less than 4                             60%
             4 years but less than 5                             80%
                 5 years or more                                100%

LOANS

Participants may borrow the lesser of 50% of their vested account balance or
$50,000 at prime plus 1 percent, which ranged between 8.75% and 9.5% during
1998, with repayment through payroll deductions. A general loan will have a term
of 5 years or less and up to 15 years will be allowed for a home loan. The loans
mature over various dates starting on June 25, 1999 and ending on December 2,
2013. Participant loans are carried at the unpaid principal amount of the loans,
which are estimated to approximate fair value.

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Upon termination of service before the normal retirement age of 65, a
participant with benefits of over $5,000 may elect to defer distribution until
normal retirement age or receive a lump sum payment equal to the vested share of
the participant's account.

Upon termination of service at the normal retirement age, benefits are available
based on the vested share of the participant's accounts. Benefits can also be
accessed in the event of disability or death.

Additionally, the Plan allows participants to make early withdrawals for certain
financial hardships. The Plan allows in service withdrawals by participants
after they reach age 59 1/2. Participants electing after they reach age 59 1/2
to take in service withdrawals will be required to pay all applicable taxes on
the withdrawals but will not be subject to penalty taxes for early withdrawals.

FORFEITURES

Forfeitures are used to reduce Company contributions and/or to pay costs of
administering the Plan.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual method of
accounting. Administrative and other expenses are recorded as incurred. Benefits
are reported when paid.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the Plan administrator to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets, liabilities and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

Plan investments are included in the accompanying financial statements at fair
value as determined by quoted market prices. Interest is recorded on the accrual
basis and is recorded in the investment value. Purchases and sales of securities
are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend
date.

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997

CONTRIBUTIONS

Contributions include all participant elective and employer-matching
contributions accrued through year-end.

AMOUNTS DUE TERMINATED PARTICIPANTS

Amounts due terminated participants, if any, are included in net assets
available for plan benefits.

NOTE 3: INVESTMENTS

The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits with fund information the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair
value of its investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on these investments. Putnam
holds the Plan's investments and executes the Plan's investment transactions.
Participants can elect to invest in any of the following investment funds
offered by Putnam's affiliated companies and the Company:

THE GEORGE PUTNAM FUND OF BOSTON: Seeks a balance of capital growth and current
income by investing in a well-diversified portfolio composed mostly of stocks
and corporate and U.S. government bonds.

THE PUTNAM FUND FOR GROWTH AND INCOME: Seeks capital growth and current income
by investing mainly in attractively priced stocks of mature companies that offer
long-term growth potential while also providing income.

PUTNAM NEW OPPORTUNITIES FUND: Seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation
by investing primarily in common stocks of companies within certain industry
groups that Putnam management believes offer above-average long-term growth
potential.

PUTNAM S & P 500 INDEX FUND: Seeks a return before the assessment of fees, that
closely approximates the return of the S&P 500 Index, which is an indicator of
U.S. stock market performance.

PUTNAM STABLE VALUE FUND: Seeks stability of principal by investing mainly in
investment contracts issued by insurance companies, banks, and similar financial
institutions. To provide liquidity, a portion of the fund's assets are invested
in high-quality money market instruments.

PUTNAM INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND: Seeks capital appreciation by investing in a
diversified portfolio of stocks of companies located mainly outside the United
States.

NOTE 3: INVESTMENTS (Continued)

INGRAM MICRO STOCK FUND: Seeks capital appreciation by investing in Ingram Micro
Inc. Class A Common Stock. Certain participants received shares of Ingram Micro
Inc. stock as part of the split out of plan assets from the Ingram Industries
Thrift Plan. Ingram Micro Inc. Class A Common Stock became an investment option
for all participants as of January 1, 1998. No rollovers or transfers from other
funds will be allowed and only 50% of employee contributions may be invested in
the fund.

NOTE 4: PLAN TERMINATION

Although the Company has not expressed an intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become
100% vested in their accounts.

NOTE 5: TAX STATUS

The trust established under the Plan to hold the Plan's assets is designed to
qualify pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, and,
accordingly, the trust's net investment income is exempt from income taxes. The
Plan has received a favorable determination letter of its tax-exempt status from
the Internal Revenue Service by a letter dated November 12, 1998.
