1.	The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. In addition, the Registrant’s statements in this Form 10-Q report may be considered forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. A discussion of these risks and uncertainties is contained in the management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
2.	The basic and diluted earnings per share computations in the condensed consolidated statements of income are based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period reported. The following data show the amounts used in computing earnings per share and the effect on the weighted-average number of shares of dilutive potential common stock.

4.	The Registrant has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year information to conform with the current presentation format.
5.	The Registrant displays the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional capital in the equity section of the Balance Sheet. Items considered to be other comprehensive income include adjustments made for foreign currency translation (under Statement 52), pensions (under Statement 87) and unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities (under Statement 115). Comprehensive income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $32,785 and $31,101, respectively. Comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $67,971 and $59,745, respectively.
6.	The Registrant has defined its segments into its three main sales channels: North American Sales and Service (NASS), International Sales and Service (ISS) and Other, which combines several of the Registrant’s smaller sales channels. These sales channels are evaluated based on the following information presented: revenues from customers, revenues from inter-segment transactions, and operating profit contribution to the total corporation. A reconciliation between segment information and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is also disclosed. All income and expense items below operating profit are not allocated to the segments and are not disclosed. Revenue by geography and revenue by product and service solution are also disclosed.
	The NASS segment sells financial and retail systems and also services financial, retail and medical systems in the United States and Canada. The ISS segment sells and services financial and retail systems over the remainder of the globe, including sales to IBM, which was the Registrant’s former partner in the InterBold joint venture that terminated in January 1998. The segment called Other sells products to educational and medical institutions and other customers. This segment also services educational customers in the United States. Each of the sales channels buys the goods it sells from the Registrant’s manufacturing plants through inter-company sales that are eliminated on consolidation. Each year, inter-company pricing is agreed upon which drives sales channel operating profit contribution. As permitted under Statement 131, certain information not routinely used in the management of these segments, information not allocated back to the segments or information that is impractical to report is not shown. Items not disclosed are as follows: interest revenue, interest expense, depreciation, amortization, equity in the net income of investees accounted for by the equity method, income tax expense or benefit, extraordinary items, significant noncash items and long-lived assets.
7.	On April 17, 2000, the Registrant announced the successful completion of its acquisition of the financial self-service assets and related development activities of European-based Groupe Bull and Getronics NV. The businesses acquired include ATMs, cash dispensers, other self-service terminals and related services primarily for the global banking industry. The acquisition was completed for approximately $90,000 and 400,000 French Francs (translation $58,080). The majority of subsidiaries of Groupe Bull and Getronics NV have been acquired and consolidated. The remaining subsidiaries will be consolidated upon completion of the legal closing.
	The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase business combination and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their respective fair values, with the excess allocated to goodwill to be amortized over the estimated economic life from the date of acquisition.

On April 17, 2000, the Registrant announced the successful completion of its acquisition of the financial self-service assets and related development activities of European-based Groupe Bull and Getronics NV. The businesses acquired include ATMs, cash dispensers, other self-service terminals and related services primarily for the global banking industry. The acquisition was completed for approximately $90,000 and 400,000 French Francs (translation $58,080). The majority of subsidiaries of Groupe Bull and Getronics NV have been acquired and consolidated. The remaining subsidiaries will be consolidated upon completion of the legal closing.

The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase business combination and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their respective fair values, with the excess allocated to goodwill to be amortized over the estimated economic life from the date of acquisition.

Changes in Financial Condition

Total assets for the second quarter ended June 30, 2000 were $1,623,709, up $324,878, or 25.0 percent from December 31, 1999.

Changes in Financial Condition (continued)

Future capital expenditures, acquisitions and increases in working capital are expected to be financed through internally generated funds and external financing. The Registrant’s investment portfolio is available for any funding needs if required. External financing is also available if needed through the Registrant’s lines of credit. At June 30, 2000, the Registrant’s bank credit lines approximated $255,000, and EUR 100,000 (translation $95,480) with various institutions. The Registrant had $197,048 and EUR 64,427 (translation $61,515) outstanding borrowings at June 30, 2000 under these agreements, with an average short-term rate of 6.97 percent US dollar, and 4.76 percent EUR. The balance in these lines of credit represents an additional and immediate source of liquidity.

Shareholders’ equity is up $48,104 over December 31, 1999, with retained earnings up $44,980, and net stock related activity was an increase to equity of $2,108, and accumulated other comprehensive income decreased by $878.

The second quarter cash dividend of $0.155 per share was paid on June 2, 2000 to shareholders of record on May 12, 2000. Diebold, Incorporated shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol of DBD. The market price during the first six months of 2000 fluctuated within the range of $21.50 and $32.88.

Results of Operation

Second Quarter 2000 Comparison to Second Quarter 1999

Overall, net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased from the same period in 1999 by $145,106 or 48.9 percent. Excluding the acquisitions in Europe (April 2000) and Brazil (November 1999) and prior year trade sales to Procomp, net sales increased 7.8 percent. Total product revenue showed an increase of $93,404, or 52.9 percent over the second quarter of 1999. Service revenue, excluding acquisitions, increased by $11,994, or 10.0 percent, reflecting the Registrant’s strategic emphasis on providing a greater mix of value-added services to its customers. The Registrant’s security business increased by $4,452, or 10.0 percent largely due to growing opportunities in emerging markets, such as retail, and increased share in established markets. Gross profit of $139,935 was $28,929, or 26.1 percent higher than the same quarter last year. Product gross margin, excluding the acquisitions, of 40.1 percent was down from 1999 second quarter gross margin of 42.9 percent, reflecting the current revenue mix. However, service gross margin of 32.8 percent, excluding the acquisitions, was up from 29.2 percent a year ago, offsetting the lower product gross margin. Total operating expenses were 17.7 percent of revenue. Excluding the acquisitions, expenses were 20.1 percent, which was an improvement from 21.5 percent of revenue in 1999. Operating profit was 14.0 percent of revenue. Excluding the acquisitions, operating profit was 16.9 percent of revenue, up from 15.8 percent from 1999. Second quarter 2000 miscellaneous, net expense was up from the same quarter in the prior year by $5,532, primarily due to the amortization of goodwill from acquisitions. Interest expense is largely related to interest on borrowings to fund acquisitions and has increased $3,403 over the second quarter of 1999. Net income of $35,833 was up by 13.5 percent over second quarter 1999 net income of $31,561 resulting in second quarter diluted earnings per share of $0.50. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, earnings per share for the second quarter of 2000 was $0.51.

Results of Operation (continued)

First Half 2000 Comparison to First Half 1999

Consolidated net sales of $786,694 for the first half of 2000 were up by $206,215, or 35.5 percent from the same period in 1999. The acquisitions in Brazil and Europe increased net sales by $165,693, of which 65.6 percent was product. Consolidated product sales were up $127,314, or 36.8 percent, while service sales for the half were up from the prior year by $78,901 or 33.6 percent. Total consolidated gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $44,664, or 21.1% year over year. Gross margin percentage excluding acquisitions increased slightly from 36.5% in 1999 to 36.7% in 2000. Product gross margin of 35.5 percent was a decrease from the first half of 1999 gross margin of 41.5 percent. Service gross margin of 28.4 percent was also down from 29.2 percent for the first half of 1999. Total operating expenses of $145,873 are lower as a percent of revenue versus 1999 (18.5 percent in 2000 versus 21.3 percent in the same period 1999.) Excluding the acquisitions, operating profit was 16.5 percent of revenue, while in total the Registrant’s consolidated operating profit was 14.1 percent for the first half of 2000. This compares to operating profit for the first half of 1999 of 15.3 percent of revenue. Consolidated net income of $67,093 was favorable by 10.6 percent over first half 1999 net income, resulting in first half diluted earnings per share of $0.94, an increase of 6.8 percent over $0.88 in 1999.

Segment Information

NASS customer revenues of $239,983 for the three month period ending June 30, 2000 increased by $7,753, or 3.3 percent from the same period of 1999. U.S. product revenue increased 8.7 percent, while Canada decreased 89.5 percent. The decrease in Canada is a result of continued challenges in replacing the IBM sales channel. NASS operating profits for the same period were up by $2,624, or 7.2 percent.

ISS customer revenue was up for the second quarter of 2000 over the same quarter of 1999 by $134,887, or 243.0 percent. Asia-Pacific product revenue increased $ 2,659, or 22.0 percent; while Europe, the Middle East and Africa product revenue increased $29,654, or 222.3 percent, reflecting positive results generated by recently formed direct sales channels as a result of the acquisition in Europe. Latin America increased by $56,565, or 364.5 percent, largely due to an increase in revenue resulting from the Brazilian acquisition.

The Other segment showed an increase in customer revenues of $2,027, or 20.9 percent for the second quarter 2000 over the same quarter 1999. The segment showed operating profit of $557, an increase over the $915 loss for the same period in 1999.

Year 2000 Disclosure

The Registrant was well prepared for year 2000 and experienced no major problems with its internal systems or in products purchased from suppliers used in manufacturing and service of its customers. Registrant’s web page (www.diebold.com) gave information to customers on year 2000 compliance of products and was a frequently used resource. As required, the Registrant expensed as incurred all costs associated with year 2000 issues. The costs did not have a material effect on the Registrant’s financial position or results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition.” SAB 101 does not change existing accounting literature on revenue recognition, but rather explains the SEC staff’s general framework for revenue recognition. SAB 101 states that changes in accounting to apply the guidance in SAB 101 may be accounted for as a change in accounting principle. Through issuance of SAB 101B, the change in accounting principle must be recorded by the fourth quarter 2000. The Registrant is currently recognizing revenue consistent with its contract terms and policies and is currently reviewing its recognition practices to determine the impact, if any, on the Registrant’s results of operations. In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and 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 Registrant will adopt Statement No. 133 as required for its first quarterly filing of fiscal year 2001.

Forward-Looking Statement Disclosure

In the Registrant’s written or oral statements, the use of the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects” and similar verbs is intended to identify forward-looking statements which have been made and may in the future be made by or on behalf of the Registrant, including statements concerning future operating performance, the Registrant’s share of new and existing markets, and the Registrant’s short- and long-term revenue and earnings growth rates. The Registrant gives no assurance that its goals will be realized, and it is under no obligation to report changes to its outlook. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Registrant’s uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements. These include, but are not limited to:

•		competitiveness pressures, including pricing pressures and technological developments;
•		changes in the Registrant’s relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors, and/or partners in its business ventures;
•		changes in political, economic, or other factors such as currency exchange rates, inflation rates, recessionary or expansive trends, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the worldwide business in each of the Registrant’s operations, including Brazil, where a significant portion of the Registrant’s revenue is derived;
•		acceptance of the Registrant’s product and technology introductions in the marketplace;
•		unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments; and
•		successfully and quickly integrating the Bull and Getronics acquisitions into the Registrant’s operations.
