1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated 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 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, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three
and six month periods ended August 31,1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
February 28, 1999. The sale of products by Pameco Corporation (the
"Company" or "Pameco") is seasonal with sales generally increasing
during the warmer months beginning in April and peaking in the months
of June, July, and August.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28,
1998.

     The balance sheet at February 28, 1998 included herein has been
derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does
not include all the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  

2.   INVENTORIES

     Inventories consist of goods held for resale and are stated at
the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined by the first-in,
first-out method.

4.   ACQUISITIONS

     In June 1998, the Company purchased the HVAC operations and
substantially all the related assets of Park Heating and Air
Conditioning Supply Co., Inc., a seven branch distributor in the
greater Chicago area.  For the year ended December 31, 1997, the
acquired business had net sales in excess of $30.0 million and derived
substantially all its net sales from the sale of HVAC products.
   
     Pro forma Data:

     The following table summarizes unaudited pro forma financial
information of the Company as if the June 1998 acquisition of Park
Heating and Air Conditioning Supply Co., Inc. had occurred as of March 1,
1997.  Pro forma results have not been presented for those
acquisitions which were not significant during the periods presented. 
These unaudited pro forma results of operations do not purport to
represent what the Company's actual results of operations would have
been if the acquisition had occurred on March 1, 1997, and should not
serve as a forecast of the Company's operating results for any future
periods.  

     The adjustments to the historical data reflect the following: 
(i) interest expense assuming the Company financed the acquisition at
a rate of  7.3%; (ii) amortization of the excess of cost over acquired
net assets; (iii) income taxes on the earnings of the acquiree
adjusted to reflect the Company's effective tax rate; and (iv) the
income tax effect of such pro forma adjustments.  The pro forma
adjustments are based on the available information and certain
assumptions that management believes are reasonable.

5.   CONTINGENCIES

     On November 18, 1996, United Refrigeration, Inc. ("United"), a
competitor of the Company, filed suit against Pameco in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania
claiming that Pameco had tortiously interfered with United's alleged
contract to purchase Sid Harvey's southeastern business operations
(the "Southeastern Assets").  United asserted that beginning on or
about August 23, 1996, it had met with Sid Harvey and had thereafter
negotiated an agreement (allegedly finalized on or about October 24,
1996) to purchase the Southeastern Assets for approximately $26
million and that Pameco tortiously interfered with this alleged
contract by offering "substantial inducements" to Sid Harvey and by
itself purchasing the Southeastern Assets. In the alternative, United
<PAGE>
claimed that Pameco had tortiously interfered with United's
prospective contractual relations with Sid Harvey.  On February 18,
1997, United filed an amended complaint adding Sid Harvey as a
defendant.  In the amended complaint, United claimed that Sid Harvey
(i) had breached its alleged agreement to sell the Southeastern Assets
to United; (ii) had committed fraud in the inducement of that alleged
contract; (iii) had negligently misrepresented certain facts

                                 7<PAGE>
concerning the sale of the operations and Sid Harvey's intention to
carry out the sale of  those assets and (iv) was unjustly enriched by
certain information obtained from United during the United-Sid Harvey
negotiations.  

     Although the amended complaint did not demand specified damages,
it asserts that United should recover the "loss of  its bargain,"
which United estimated to be $11.4 million, plus punitive damages.
Upon consummation of the Southeastern Assets acquisition, Pameco
agreed, based on certain written representations made by Sid Harvey
about the status of its discussions with United, to indemnify Sid
Harvey against all liabilities arising out of any action filed by
United in connection with the purchase of the Southeastern Assets. 

     Pameco and Sid Harvey asserted counterclaims against United
seeking to recover the damages they incurred in going forward with the
transaction in reliance on representations that the President of
United made to the President of Sid Harvey.  

     By agreement of the parties effective September 14, 1998, the
parties amicably resolved their differences, and all claims and
counterclaims asserted in the case were dismissed with prejudice and
mutual releases were exchanged.  The terms of the settlement will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations
or financial condition.
 
     From time to time, the Company is involved in other claims and
legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of  its business. 
The Company intends to defend vigorously all such claims and does not
believe any such matters would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations or financial condition.
