       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (unaudited)
       ------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
    ----------------------

The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein are unaudited.
Accordingly, information and footnote disclosures normally prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been either
condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Although the registrant believes that all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) have been made, interim period results are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations for a full year. As such, these
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the most recent Form 10-K which was filed for the
year ended March 31, 1998.

2.  RECENT ACQUISITIONS:
    --------------------

During 1997 and 1998, the Company acquired the following businesses:

              Nyco                            May 1, 1998

The acquisitions described above were accounted for as purchases and the
purchase prices were allocated based on management's estimate of the fair value
of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with respect to each acquisition
at the dates of acquisition.

Had the acquisitions occurred at the beginning of the current and prior fiscal
years, the unaudited and pro forma net sales, net income, diluted net income per
share and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding would be
as follows (in thousands except net income per share data):

4.  INCOME TAXES:
    -------------
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109. The statement
requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting
of income taxes. Deferred taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax
effects of differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and
liabilities given the provisions of the enacted tax laws.

5.  PUBLIC OFFERING:
    ----------------

In October, 1997 the Company completed its initial public offering of 4.3
million shares of common stock with net proceeds of approximately $71.4 million.
The net proceeds were used to retire all outstanding bank and subordinated
interest bearing indebtedness and associated prepayment penalties, redeem
Redeemable Preferred Stock and pay preferred stock dividends.

Immediately prior to the consummation of the offering, the Company effected a
1.74 for 1 stock split of the common stock, which has been reflected for all
periods presented.

1997"). The growth in net sales compared to the prior year was the result of a
13% increase in same store sales, the expansion of product lines and the
acquisitions of Burke, JEF, Sierra, CCS, Watts and Nyco.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the second quarter 1998 increased $10.4 million,
or 67%, to $25.9 million compared to $15.5 million for the second quarter 1997.
The increase in gross profit was the result of increased net sales and higher
gross profit margins. The gross profit margin for the second quarter of 1998 was
32.7% compared to 31.9% for the second quarter of 1997. The higher gross profit
margin over the prior year is primarily due to a change in product mix, an
increase in rental business and early payment discounts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative
expense ("SG&A") increased $7.6 million or 65%, to $19.3 million for the second
quarter 1998 compared to $11.7 million for the second quarter 1997. As a percent
of sales, SG&A was 24.3% for the second quarter 1998 and 24.1% for the second
quarter of 1997.

Selling expenses increased $6.9 million, or 75%, to $15.9 million for the second
quarter 1998 from $9.1 million for the second quarter 1997. The increase is due
to increased advertising and commissions to the outside sales force due to the
sales growth, and increased costs of customer service, principally the addition
of branch personnel. Selling expenses as a percent of net sales for the second
quarter 1998 were 20.1% compared to 18.7% for the second quarter 1997.

General, administrative and distribution center expenses increased $0.7 million,
or 28%, to $3.4 million for the second quarter 1998 from $2.6 million for the
second quarter 1997. The increase in general and administrative expenses is
primarily due to increased distribution and administration costs to process the
increased sales volume. General, administrative and distribution center expenses
as a percentage of net sales for the second quarter 1998 were 4.3%, as compared
to 5.4% for the second quarter 1997. Exclusive of the effects of goodwill and
covenant not to compete amortization of $0.4 million in the second quarter 1998
and $0.2 million in the second quarter 1997, general and administrative expenses
increased 24%.

Income from Operations.  Income from operations for the second quarter 1998
increased $2.8 million, or 73%, to $6.6 million compared to $3.8 million for the
second quarter 1997. The increase in operating margin for the second quarter
1998 compared to the second quarter 1997 was primarily the result of the
increase in gross profit margins as a percentage of sales. The operating margin
was 8.3% for the second quarter 1998 compared to 7.8% for the second quarter
1997.

Interest Expense, net.  Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $0.9
million, or 49%, to $1.0 million in the second quarter 1998 from $1.9 million
for the second quarter 1997. This decrease was due to a reduction of outstanding
debt and lower interest cost as a result of the Company's initial public
offering. Additionally, the Company entered into a new credit facility in
October, 1997, which reduced the Company's interest rate. The decrease in
interest expense is partially offset by the increased borrowings to obtain early
payment discounts.

Net Income. Net income for the second quarter 1998 was $3.4 million versus net
income of $1.2 million for the second quarter 1997. This increase reflects the
cumulative effects of the increase in gross profit and the decrease in interest
expense offset, in part, by the increase in SG&A expenses.

                 SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 26, 1998 COMPARED TO
                      SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

Net Sales.  Net sales for the six months ended September 26, 1998 ("first half
1998") increased $62.0 million, or 72%, to $148.0 million compared to $86.0
million for the six months ended September 30, 1997 ("first half 1997"). The
growth in net sales compared to the prior year was the result of a 13% increase
in same store sales, the expansion of product lines and the acquisitions of
Stop, Viking, Burke, JEF, Sierra, CCS, Watts and Nyco.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the first half 1998 increased $21.0 million, or
78%, to $48.0 million compared to $27.0 million for the first half 1997. The
increase in gross profit was the result of increased net sales and higher gross
profit margins. The gross profit margin for the first half of 1998 was 32.4%
compared to 31.4% for the first half of 1997. The higher gross profit margin
over the prior year is primarily due to a change in product mix, an increase in
rental business, and early payment discounts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative
expense ("SG&A") increased $15.0 million or 71%, to $36.2 million for the first
half 1998 compared to $21.2 million for the first half 1997. As a percent of
sales, SG&A was 24.5% for the first half 1998 and 24.6% for the first half 1997.

Selling expenses increased $13.2 million, or 81%, to $29.6 million for the first
half 1998 from $16.4 million for the first half 1997. The increase is due to
increased advertising and commissions to the outside sales force due to the
sales growth, and increased costs of customer service, principally the addition
of branch personnel. Selling expenses as a percent of net sales for the first
half 1998 were 20.0% compared to 19.1% for the first half 1997.

General, administrative and distribution center expenses increased $1.8 million,
or 38%, to $6.6 million for the first half 1998 from $4.8 million for the first
half 1997. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due
to increased distribution and administration costs to process the increased
sales volume. General, administrative and distribution center expenses as a
percentage of net sales for the first half 1998 were 4.4%, as compared to 5.5%
for the first half 1997. Exclusive of the effects of goodwill and covenant not
to compete amortization of $0.8 million in the first half 1998 and $0.3 million
in the first half 1997, general and administrative expenses increased 31%.

Income from Operations. Income from operations for the first half 1998 increased
$6.0 million, or 102%, to $11.8 million compared to $5.8 million for the first
half 1997. The increase in operating margin for the first half 1998 compared to
the first half 1997 was primarily the result of the increase in gross profit
margins as a percentage of sales. The operating margin was 8.0% for the first
half 1998 compared to 6.8% for the first half 1997.

Interest Expense, net. Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $1.4
million, or 43%, to $1.8 million in the first half 1998 from $3.2 million for
the first half 1997. This decrease was due to a reduction of outstanding debt as
a result of the Company's initial public offering. Additionally, the Company
entered into a new credit facility in October, 1997, which reduced the Company's
interest rate. The decrease in interest expense is partially offset by the
increased borrowings to obtain early payment discounts.

Net Income.  Net income for the first half 1998 was $6.0 million versus net
income of $1.6 million for the first half 1997. This increase reflects the
cumulative effects of the increase in gross profit and the decrease in interest
expense offset, in part, by the increase in SG&A expenses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Working Capital. During the first half 1998, operating working capital increased
$12.3 million. The change in operating working capital was primarily the result
of increases in accounts receivable of $17.1 million, inventories


                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

of $10.7 million, and prepaid expenses of $0.2 million, which were partially
offset by increases in accounts payable of $11.0 million and accrued liabilities
of $4.5 million. The change in operating working capital excludes changes in
cash and cash equivalents and current maturities of long-term debt.

Cash Flow.  For the first half 1998, the Company generated approximately $1.4
million of net cash from operating activities. Net cash used in investing
activities was $30.0 million, including $27.6 million used for acquisitions and
$2.4 million used for additions to property and equipment. Financing activities
during the first half of 1998 provided net cash of $30.0 million, including
$30.3 million borrowed under the Credit Agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.  At September 26, 1998, the Company had cash of
$3.2 million and working capital of $48.4 million. The Company's capitalization,
defined as the sum of long-term debt and stockholders' equity, at September 26,
1998, was approximately $121.9 million.

The Company's primary capital needs have been for acquisitions and to fund the
working capital requirements necessitated by its sales growth, acquisitions,
facilities and product line expansions. During the six months ended September
26, 1998, the Company's primary sources of financing have been cash from
operations and bank borrowings under the Company's revolving and term credit
facility (the "Credit Facility"). In prior years, in addition to the above
sources, the Company accessed financing through senior and subordinated debt,
the sale of preferred equity, and a portion of the proceeds from the initial
public offering.

The Company anticipates that its current cash on hand, cash flow from operations
and additional financing available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient
to meet the Company's liquidity requirements for its operations through the
remainder of the fiscal year ended March 27, 1999. However, the Company is
currently, and intends to continue, pursuing additional acquisitions, which are
expected to be funded through a combination of cash and common stock. There can
be no assurances that additional sources of financing will not be required
during the next twelve months or thereafter to fund the Company's acquisition
program.

The Company's business is subject to seasonal influences. The Company's
historical revenues and profitability have been lower in the last two quarters
of its fiscal year. As the Company's mix of businesses evolves through future
acquisitions, those seasonal fluctuations may change. In addition, quarterly
results also may be materially affected by the timing of acquisitions, the
timing and magnitude of costs related to such acquisitions, variations in the
prices paid by the Company for the products it sells, the mix of products sold,
and general economic conditions. Therefore, results for any quarter are not
necessarily indicative of the results that the Company may achieve for any
subsequent fiscal quarter or for a full fiscal year.

In October, 1997 the Company completed its initial public offering of 4.3
million shares of common stock with net proceeds of approximately $71.4 million.
The net proceeds were used to retire all outstanding bank and subordinated
interest bearing indebtedness and associated prepayment penalties, Convertible
Preferred Stock, Redeemable Preferred Stock and related accrued dividends.

In October, 1997 the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with available
borrowings of up to $100 million (including a $75 million delayed draw term
facility for acquisitions and a $25 million revolving credit facility). Interest
on the amounts borrowed may be paid at the option of the Company at a rate per
annum equal to the lead bank's prime or reference rate or LIBOR rate plus
margins, in each case based upon the Company's ratio of total debt to operating
cash flow. The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants limiting
mergers, use of proceeds, indebtedness, liens, investments, sale of assets and
acquisitions. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants which
require the Company to maintain a minimum net worth, leverage ratio, fixed
charge coverage ratio and asset coverage ratio. At September 26, 1998, the
Company had approximately $55.4 million available under the aforementioned
facilities.

During the six months ended September 26, 1998, the Company completed four
acquisitions. Effective April 1, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of
Sierra Supply, Inc. and CCS Supply, Inc. Effective May 1, 1998, the Company
acquired 100% of the stock of NYCO, Inc. and Charles R. Watts Co. The cash
portion of the 


                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

acquisitions was funded from the Company's delayed draw term loan facility in
the amount of approximately $27.6 million net of cash acquired. Additionally,
the Company issued approximately 106,000 shares of common stock related to the
Watts acquisition.

Year 2000
- ---------

The Company is currently addressing a universal situation commonly referred to
as the "Year 2000 Problem." The Year 2000 Problem relates to the inability of
certain computer software programs to properly recognize and process
date-sensitive information relative to the Year 2000 and beyond. During Fiscal
1997, the Company developed a plan to devote the necessary resources to: (1)
identify and modify systems impacted by the Year 2000 Problem, (2) implement new
systems to become Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner, (3) contact its major
suppliers seeking information about their internal compliance efforts, (4)
contact its major customers seeking information about their internal compliance
efforts and (5) develop contingency plans in case of supplier or customer
disruptions. The total cost of executing this plan is estimated at $300,000 and,
as of September 26, 1998, the Company was approximately 50% complete with the
execution of this plan. On November 2, 1998, the Company implemented an
application software upgrade that addresses the "Year 2000 Problem" for the
Companies' major internal computer processing function. In addition, the Company
has contacted its major suppliers and vendors seeking information about their
internal compliance efforts. The Company's risks involved with not solving the
Year 2000 issue include, but are not limited to, the following: loss of local or
regional electric power, loss of telecommunication services, delays or
cancellations of shipping or transportation, manufacturing shut-downs, bank
errors and computer errors by vendors. The Company is in the process of
developing contingency plans for those areas which might be affected by the Year
2000 Problem. If the Company, its suppliers or vendors are unable to resolve
issues related to the Year 2000 on a timely basis, it could result in a material
financial risk.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
- ---------------------------------------

Although the Company cannot accurately determine the precise effect of inflation
on its operations, it does not believe inflation has had a material effect on
sales or results of operations.
