PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
IKON Office Solutions, Inc. ("IKON" or the "Company") was incorporated in
Ohio in 1952 and is the successor to a business incorporated in 1928. The
address of the Company's principal executive offices is 70 Valley Stream
Parkway, Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355 (telephone number: (610) 296-8000).
IKON provides fully customized cost-effective document-management and
network solutions, offering products manufactured by a variety of leading
vendors. IKON provides a high level of personal service and support for these
products, so that customers can achieve the full measure of office technology
integration. IKON has three categories of product and service offerings--
business services, document services and technology services.
IKON'S business services product offerings include traditional analog copier
and facsimile products, with an increased emphasis on digital, high-volume and
color units which may also include networking capability. There are over one
million copiers placed and serviced by IKON worldwide, with approximately 70%
of this equipment covered by lease and service contracts, which provide a
predictable revenue stream.
IKON'S document services offerings include photocopying and document coding
services for the legal industry, and document production (including services
such as digital printing, binding and finishing, and conversion of paper files
to electronic format). IKON also provides management services for customers'
mailrooms, copy centers and general administrative facilities, serving over
1300 customers in 70 cities.
IKON'S technology services offerings include consulting and professional
services for network integration and design, network support and management
services, and education and training services.
IKON operates over 1,000 locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the
United Kingdom, Germany, France and Denmark. These locations comprise the
largest network of independent copier and office equipment dealers in North
America and in the United Kingdom. IKON competes against numerous competitors
over a wide range of markets, competing on the basis of quality, customer
service, price and product performance.
IKON distributes the products of numerous manufacturers, including Canon,
Oce and Ricoh, throughout the United States, Canada, in Europe and in Mexico.
IKON also distributes the products of Microsoft, IBM, Lotus, Compaq and
Hewlett-Packard in the United States and Canada. Customers include large and
small businesses, professional firms and government agencies.
In fiscal 1998, IKON generated approximately $5.6 billion in revenues, and
had operating income of $74.5 million, including pretax charges of $150
million, before transformation costs (see "Business Transformation," on page
2). After transformation costs, the Company sustained an operating loss for
fiscal 1998 of $3.5 million.
During fiscal 1998, IKON acquired 34 companies in the United States, Canada,
and Europe, with an aggregate of approximately $231 million in annualized
trailing revenues. Of the 34 companies acquired in fiscal 1998, thirteen were
traditional copier companies, ten were outsourcing and imaging companies and
eleven were technology services companies. IKON's international expansion
during fiscal 1998 included the acquisition of companies in the United
Kingdom, France and Germany.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company initiated a program to
increase productivity and reduce costs (see New Management Program on page 2).
As a result, while there can be no assurance of future results, IKON expects
its financial performance to begin to show improvement in fiscal 1999.

INFORMATION CONCERNING IKON'S BUSINESS IN GENERAL
MANAGEMENT AND BOARD CHANGES
On July 9, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors appointed James J. Forese
as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, and elected him a
member of the Board of Directors. The Board also named Richard A. Jalkut, a
director of the Company since 1996, as Non-Executive Chairman. John E. Stuart,
who had served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, resigned all positions
with the Company.
After Mr. Forese's appointment, a number of other executive appointments
occurred. Peter W. Shoemaker was named Senior Vice President and President of
North American Business Services, and Lynn B. Graham was named Senior Vice
President, in addition to his existing role as President of IKON Document
Services. Edward C. Groark was named Vice President and President of IKON
Technology Services and David M. Mills was named Vice President and President
of IKON - Europe.
Judith M. Bell, a proprietor of several small businesses, was elected to the
Board of Directors in May 1998. Thomas P. Gerrity, Dean of The Wharton School
of the University of Pennsylvania, also joined the Board in May 1998, after
his election by the shareholders in January 1998.
NEW MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
The Company's new management team initiated a program in the fourth quarter
of fiscal 1998 to increase productivity and reduce costs. Components of the
program include: restructuring of business districts nationwide using IKON's
successful Northeast District as a model; increasing sales focus on fast-
growing segments; creating integrated marketing on a nationwide basis;
centralizing financial reporting; implementing work force reductions; closing
under-performing branches; consolidating operations to achieve greater
economies of scale; changing sales compensation; realigning sales territories;
and introducing a national sales training curriculum. In addition, the Company
has hired PricewaterhouseCoopers to examine the Company's structure and
productivity to identify ways to achieve a higher level of efficiency.
BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION
In September 1995, the Company announced its transformation program designed
to change the organization into a more cohesive and integrated network by
building a uniform information technology system and implementing best
practices for critically important management functions throughout the IKON
companies. The transformation involved a variety of activities that IKON
believes will ultimately lower administrative costs and improve gross margins
through the creation of marketplace-focused field operations with greater
attention to customer sales and services. These activities included
consolidating purchasing, inventory control, logistics and other activities
into thirteen customer service centers in the United States, establishing a
single financial processing center, building a common information technology
system, adopting a common name, and creating common benefit programs.
The Company incurred transformation expense of $78 million, $127 million and
$21 million during fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. At September 30,
1998, the transformation program was substantially complete. The Company's
September 30, 1998 balance sheet, as set forth on page 35 of the Company's
1998 Annual Report to Shareholders ("1998 Annual Report") includes a severance
accrual of approximately $9.3 million and facility consolidation accrual of
approximately $10.8 million relating to the transformation program.
SUPPLIERS AND CUSTOMERS
Products distributed by IKON are purchased from numerous domestic and
overseas suppliers, primarily Canon, Oce and Ricoh. There has been no
significant difficulty in obtaining products from these suppliers.
2
<PAGE>
Supplier relationships are good and are expected to continue. IKON has a large
number of customers, and is not dependent upon a single customer, or a few
customers, the loss of any one or more of which would have a material adverse
effect on IKON's business taken as a whole.
Many of the Company's operations carry significant amounts of inventory to
meet rapid delivery requirements of customers. At September 30, 1998,
inventories accounted for approximately 19% of IKON's current assets.
PROPRIETARY MATTERS
The Company has a number of trademarks, trade names and service marks which
the Company uses in the conduct of its business. However, except for the "IKON
Office Solutions" and "IKON" designations, the Company does not believe that
any single name, trademark, trade name or service mark is material to its
business taken as a whole.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
IKON is engaged in distribution and services businesses which do not
generate significant hazardous wastes. Some of IKON's distribution facilities
have tanks for storage of diesel fuel and other petroleum products which are
subject to laws regulating such storage tanks. Federal, state and local
provisions relating to the protection of the environment have not had and are
not expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company's capital
expenditures, liquidity, earnings or competitive position. Certain
environmental claims, however, are now pending against the Company for
manufacturing or landfill sites relating to predivestiture activities of
discontinued manufacturing operations. While it is not possible to estimate
what expenditures may be required in order for the Company to comply with
environmental laws or discharge environmental liabilities in the future, the
Company does not believe that such expenditures will have a material adverse
effect on it or its operations taken as a whole.
EMPLOYEES
At September 30, 1998, IKON had approximately 42,600 employees. IKON
believes its relations with its employees are good.
FOREIGN OPERATIONS
IKON has operations in Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Germany, France
and Denmark. Information concerning revenues, income before taxes and
identifiable assets of the Company's foreign continuing operations for each of
the three years in the period ended September 30, 1998 set forth in note 17 to
the consolidated financial statements (included on page 48 of the 1998 Annual
Report) is incorporated herein by reference. Revenues from exports during the
last three fiscal years were not significant. There are additional risks
attendant to foreign operations, such as possible currency fluctuations and
unsettled political conditions.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
At September 30, 1998, IKON owned or leased approximately 1,000 facilities
in 50 states, ten Canadian provinces, in Europe and in Mexico, of which
approximately 1% are owned and 99% are leased under lease agreements with
various expiration dates. These properties occupy a total of approximately 9.2
million square feet. IKON believes that its facilities are suitable and
adequate for the purposes for which they are used.

<PAGE>
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company and certain current and former principal officers and employee
directors were named as defendants in a series of purported class action
complaints which were purportedly filed on behalf of purchasers of the
Company's common stock. The complaints were filed in the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania following the issuance
of the Company's August 14, 1998 earnings release. By court order dated
November 30, 1998, the Court appointed co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel.
By court order dated December 3, 1998, all of the complaints were
consolidated. The consolidated complaint (the "Complaint") was filed on
December 18, 1998 and alleges that the defendants publicly disseminated a
series of false and misleading statements, including filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, concerning the Company's revenue,
profitability and financial condition, in violation of the federal securities
laws. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class of persons who purchased or
acquired the Company's common stock between January 24, 1996 and August 14,
1998. The Complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages,
prejudgment interest, attorneys' fees and costs. The Company has not yet
responded to the Complaint, but believes that the allegations contained
therein are without merit and that the outcome of the proceedings will not
have a material adverse effect on the financial position or overall trends in
the results of operations of the Company. However, due to the inherent
uncertainties of litigation, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome
of these proceedings or the probability of any liability or losses relating
thereto, and, accordingly, no provision has been made for any liability or
loss that may result from the adjudication or settlement of these proceedings
in the financial statements contained in the 1998 Annual Report. An
unfavorable outcome of these proceedings could have a material adverse impact
on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
A number of ordinary course legal proceedings are pending against the
Company. The outcome of these legal proceedings is not expected to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.
Except as described above, there are no material pending legal proceedings
to which the Company is a party (or to which any of its property is subject),
and to the Company's knowledge, no material legal proceedings are contemplated
by governmental authorities against the Company or any of its properties.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The New York Stock Exchange is the principal market on which the Company's
common stock is traded (ticker symbol IKN). As of December 18, 1998, there
were approximately 14,910 holders of record of IKON's common stock. The

IKON anticipates that it will pay a quarterly dividend of $.04 per common
share in March 1999. The Company currently expects to continue its policy of
paying regular cash dividends, although there can be no assurance as to future
dividends because they are dependent upon future operating results, capital

certain loan agreements.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
This Report includes or incorporates by reference information which may
constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws, including, but not limited to, fiscal 1999 predictions of
improved performance. Although the Company believes the expectations contained
in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurances can be given
that such expectations will prove correct. Such forward-looking information is
based upon management's current plans or expectations and is subject to a
number of uncertainties and risks that could significantly affect current
plans, anticipated actions and the Company's future financial condition and
results. These uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to, those
relating to successfully managing the integration of acquired companies,
including companies with technical services and products that are relatively
new to the Company, and also including companies outside the United States,
which present additional risks relating to international operations; risks and
uncertainties relating to conducting operations in a competitive environment;
delays, difficulties, technological changes, management transitions and
employment issues associated with consolidation of business operations; risks
and uncertainties associated with the adoption of a preferred vendor program;
risks and uncertainties relating to potential Year 2000 deficiencies
associated with IKON's internal systems and distributed products; risks and
uncertainties relating to material litigation; debt service requirements
(including sensitivity to fluctuation in interest rates); and general economic
conditions. As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future
financial condition and results may differ materially from those expressed in
any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.
