INDUSTRIAL DISTRIBUTION GROUP, INC.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2000

Industrial Distribution Group, Inc. ("IDG" or the "Company"), a Delaware
corporation, was formed on February 12, 1997 to create a nationwide supplier of
cost-effective, flexible procurement solutions for manufacturers and other users
of maintenance, repair, operating, and production (MROP) products. The Company
conducts business in 27 states and provides product expertise in the procurement
and application of MROP products to a wide range of industries.

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to
the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for reporting on
Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements are not
included herein. The Company believes all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of these interim statements have been included and are of a normal
and recurring nature.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the
current year presentation.

The interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and notes thereto, included in its Annual Report on Form
10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, Commission File Number
001-13195.


2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There were no significant changes in the accounting policies of the Company
during the periods presented.


3.  CREDIT FACILITY

In December 1999, the Company entered into a $100,000,000 revolving credit
facility with a six-bank syndicate. The facility has a two-year term, bears
interest at either the bank's corporate base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus
applicable margins, and has a first security interest in the assets of the
Company's business units. The agreement provides that the facility be used for
operations and acquisitions and provides $5,000,000 for swinglines and
$10,000,000 for letters of credit. There is an annual commitment fee on the
unused portion of the facility equal to between 20 and 30 basis points of the
average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitment, depending on the ratio
of indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA. This fee amounted to approximately $63,000
and $56,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
This agreement amended the December 1998 agreement for a $125,000,000 facility.
The amounts outstanding under this facility at June 30, 2000 and 1999 were
$41,700,000 and $49,000,000, respectively.

Additionally, the Company has outstanding two issued letters of credit for a
total of $2,948,000 as of June 30, 2000. The revolving credit facility contains
various covenants pertaining to the maintenance of certain financial ratios.
These covenants include requirements for interest coverage, cash flow, and net
worth, among other restrictions. The covenants also prohibit the payment of
dividends. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30,
2000 and 1999.


4.  CAPITAL STOCK

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company issued 48,961 shares of its
common stock through its employee stock purchase plan. Additionally, the Company
issued 22,564 shares of its common stock as part of its 1999 management
incentive plan.

On July 24, 2000, the Company repurchased 442,498 shares of its common stock
from Douglass C.Smith (a co-founder and former President, Chief Operating
Officer, and Director of IDG) and certain of Mr. Smith's family members, at a
purchase price of $2.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,106,245. The transaction was completed in response to Mr. Smith's unsolicited
request for such a repurchase.

5.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On April 5, 2000, the Company settled the previously reported dissenter's rights
lawsuit involving its wholly owned subsidiary The Distribution Group, Inc.
("TDG") and Alvis J. Waite that had been pending in DeKalb County Superior
Court, Georgia, File No. 97-14388-4. On behalf of TDG, the Company paid Mr.
Waite $10.75 million in full satisfaction of all disputes and issues raised by
the lawsuit, in which the court had entered a judgment that adopted the
recommendations of the court-appointed appraiser. Including a charge taken in
the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company had previously provided an accrual that
was adequate to cover the payment as well as related legal fees. The payment was
made using a management liability insurance policy provided through one of its
insurance carriers.

The Company is subject to various claims and legal actions which arise in the
ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution
of such matters, including that identified above, will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


6.   NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which addresses
the accounting for derivative instruments. SFAS No. 133 was recently amended to
be effective for financial statements for the Company's fiscal quarters
beginning after January 1, 2001. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 133 will
have a significant effect on its current financial reporting.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is based upon the historical financial results of the
Company. Results of operations from acquisitions made using the purchase method
of accounting have also been included from their date of acquisition.

In this discussion, most percentages and dollar amounts have been rounded to aid
presentation; as a result, all such figures are approximations. References to
such approximations have generally been omitted.


This discussion may contain certain forward-looking statements concerning the
Company's operations, performance, and financial condition, including, in
particular, the likelihood of the Company's success in developing and expanding
its business. These statements are based upon a number of assumptions and
estimates that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
include, but are not limited to, the availability of attractive acquisition
opportunities, the successful integration and profitable management of acquired
businesses, improvement of operating efficiencies, the availability of working
capital and financing for future acquisitions, the Company's ability to grow
internally through expansion of services and customer bases, its ability to
reduce overhead, seasonality, the continuation of key supplier relationships,
the ability of the Company to compete successfully in the highly competitive and
diverse MROP market, the Company's ability to maintain key personnel, the
availability of key personnel for employment by the Company, and other factors
discussed in more detail under "Item 1-Business" of the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for fiscal 1999.

</TABLE>

Net sales increased $1.0 million or .8 % from $137.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $138.3 million for the three months ended June 30,
2000. The increase is attributable to sales from an acquisition made in the
second quarter of 1999 and the addition of new flexible procurement solutions
customers.

Cost of sales increased $704,000 or .7% from $107.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 to $108.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased from 78.2% in 1999 to
78.1% in 2000. The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is
primarily due to a change in total company sales mix and additional incentives
from strategic growth suppliers.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $338,000 or 1.2% from
$27.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $27.5 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general
and administrative expenses decreased from 20.3% to 19.9%. The decrease in
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is
primarily due to management's efforts to reduce expenses through consolidation
of facilities and reduction of the number of employees.

Operating income increased $677,000 or 31.9% from $2.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30,
2000. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased from 1.5% in 1999
to 2.0% in 2000.

Cost of sales increased $4.2 million or 2.0% from $213.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 to $217.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased from 78.0% in 1999
to 78.2% in 2000. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is
primarily due to a change in total company sales mix offset by additional
incentives from strategic growth suppliers.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $1.1 million or 1.9%
from $56.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $55.5 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2000. As a percentage of net sales, selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased from 20.7% to 20.0%. The decrease
is partially attributable to the 1999 expense associated with the departure of
the former CEO and the closure of the Chevy Chase, Maryland office. Additionally
management's efforts to reduce expenses through consolidation of facilities and
reduction of the number of employees have resulted in lower selling, general,
and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales.

Operating income increased $1.5 million or 44.0% from $3.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased from 1.3% in 1999
to 1.8% in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2000, the Company had $695,000 in cash, an additional $90.5 million
of working capital, and $55.4 million of borrowing capacity under its $100
million revolving credit facility with a six-bank syndicate.

The Company's liquidity position continues to be sufficient to enable the
Company to fund its current operations and to fund anticipated internal
expansion and acquisitions for the next year.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 was $2.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The change was due to cash
used to fund working capital needs.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $6.1 million and ($11.3) million, respectively.
During 1999 property and equipment additions included expenditures for a new
building for the Company's largest business unit. In June 2000, the building was
sold in a transaction accounted for as a sale leaseback. Proceeds from the sale
are included in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Otherwise, in 2000, the cash was used primarily for equipment additions. In 1999
cash was also used to fund a portion of the Company's ERP system and to fund an
acquisition.

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999 was ($4.2) million and $12.9 million, respectively. In
2000, the Company arranged, through one of its insurance carriers to purchase
management liability insurance to cover the $10.75 million payment made to the
dissenting shareholder. This premium is being financed by the insurance carrier
over a period of three years and provided $9.8 million in cash net of premium
payments. Additionally in 2000, cash provided by investing activities was used
to reduce the Company's long-term debt. In 1999, the cash was used for repayment
of lines of credit of certain acquired companies, property additions, and to
fund working capital needs.

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On April 5, 2000, the Company settled the previously reported dissenter's rights
lawsuit involving its wholly owned subsidiary The Distribution Group, Inc.
("TDG") and Alvis J. Waite that had been pending in DeKalb County Superior
Court, Georgia, File No. 97-14388-4. On behalf of TDG, the Company paid Mr.
Waite $10.75 million in full satisfaction of all disputes and issues raised by
the lawsuit, in which the court had entered a judgment that adopted the
recommendations of the court-appointed appraiser. Including a charge taken in
the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company had previously provided an accrual that
was adequate to cover the payment as well as related legal fees. The payment was
made using a management liability insurance policy provided through one of its
insurance carriers.
