                   (INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE NINE MONTHS
                 ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998 IS UNAUDITED)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
Moore-Handley, Inc. (the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 31, 1999.

    The financial information presented herein reflects all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim
periods. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year.


2.  INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

    Basic net income per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding and net income. Diluted net income per share is based on the
weighted average of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive
employee stock options and net income. Basic and diluted earnings per share were
the same for the first three quarters of 1999 and 1998.


3.  REVENUE RECOGNITION


    The Company recognizes revenues when goods are shipped.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

SUMMARY

         Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 increased $4,837,000
or 12.5% from the same quarter in 1998. Net loss per share for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 was 2 cents per share compared to net loss per share of 5
cents per share for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. Net loss per share for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was 6 cents per share compared to net
income per share of 1 cent per share for the same period in 1998. Gross margin
improvement of $2,152,000 in the first nine months of 1999 over the same period
in 1998 was offset by disproportionately higher warehouse costs resulting in
lower earnings per share.

NET SALES

         For the three months ended September 30, 1999, warehouse shipments
increased $2,792,000 or 11.0% and factory direct shipments increased $2,046,000
or 15.4% compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, warehouse shipments increased 11.5%, factory
direct shipments increased 12.1%, and total net sales increased 11.7% compared
to the prior year period. The increase in factory direct shipments reflects near
record sales at the three Dealers' Marts held during each of the first three
quarters of 1999 as well as the Company's expanded efforts to increase sales of
lumber and building materials. The increase was affected in part by the fact
that the Dealers' Mart held in the third quarter 1998 was late in September and
the orders from that Mart were, for the most part, shipped and recorded in the
fourth quarter 1998.

         Gross margins on direct shipments are lower than gross margins on
warehouse shipments; however, expenses related to direct shipments are also
lower. While the trend toward factory direct shipments has resulted in decreased
gross margins, the Company believes that direct shipments are an important part
of its business as a full-service wholesale distributor.

The following table sets forth the major elements of net sales:

WAREHOUSE AND DELIVERY EXPENSE

         Warehouse and delivery expense for the third quarter 1999 increased
$380,000 or 15.7% compared to the same quarter last year. However, as a
percentage of warehouse sales, for the third quarter warehouse and delivery
expense increased 0.4 percentage points to 9.9% in 1999 from 9.5% in 1998.
Warehouse and delivery expense for the first nine months of 1998 was reduced
$177,000 by a gain on the sale of delivery equipment. For the nine month period,
excluding this gain, warehouse and delivery expense increased to 9.9% in 1999
from 9.3% in 1998 as a percentage of warehouse sales.

         The following table sets forth the trend in warehouse and delivery
expenses in 1998 and, the first, second and third quarter of 1999:

INTEREST EXPENSE

         Interest expense increased $46,000 or 13.9% during the third quarter of
1999 compared to the same period during 1998 and decreased $37,000 or 3.5% for
the nine months of 1999 compared to the same period in 1998. Interest expense
was 0.9% of sales for the month of September in 1999 and 1998. Interest on the
Company's working capital line of credit is charged at the prime rate which was
8.5% at the end of the third quarter of 1998 and was 8.25% as of the end of the
same period in 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         From December 31, 1998 to September 30, 1999, the Company's net trade
receivables increased by $2,986,000 or 12.3%. The increase was due to the higher
level of sales during the first nine months of 1999 and because of extended
terms given to customers as a part of the sales promotion in conjunction with
the third quarter 1999 Dealers' Mart.

         Inventories decreased by $113,000 or 1% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to December 31, 1998. Additionally, inventories
decreased $1,306,000 or 6.9% compared to September 30, 1998, as the Company
continues its efforts to reduce inventory levels while maintaining its high
"fill rate" (the percentage of items shipped within 48 hours of the receipt of
an order) on customer orders. The company's fill rate in recent months has
exceeded 96%.

         The Company's working capital needs and investing activity requirements
for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 were greater than cash flow
from operations and therefore the Company increased its borrowing under its
working capital line of credit. At September 30, 1999, the Company had an unused
working capital line of credit of $2,091,000, which it believes is adequate to
finance its working capital requirements.

INTEREST RATE RISK

         The following discussion about the Company's interest rate risk
includes "forward looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties.
Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward
looking statements.

         The Company's principal credit agreement and the Company's lease with
respect to industrial development bonds issued to finance the Company's
principal warehouse distribution facility both bear a floating interest rate
based on, in the case of the credit agreement, the prime rate or at the
Company's option 2 1/2% over LIBOR, and in the case of the industrial
development lease, based on 92% of the prime rate. Accordingly, the Company is
subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates. At September
30, 1999, $17,761,000 was outstanding under the credit agreement and $1,832,000
was outstanding under the industrial development lease agreement. For 1998, the
average principal amount outstanding under the credit agreement was $12,039,000.
Assuming the average amount outstanding under the credit agreement during 1999
is equal to such average amount outstanding during 1998 and assuming the Company
makes its scheduled amortization payments on its industrial development lease of
$769,000 in 1999, a 1% increase in the applicable interest rate during 1999
would result in additional interest expense of approximately $60,000, which
would reduce cash flow and pre-tax earnings dollar for dollar.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

         The Company is in the process of modifying or replacing those portions
of its software which are used in the ordinary course of the Company's business
so that its computer, telephone and other systems will function properly with
respect to dates of the year 2000 and thereafter. Based on its current
assessment of which portions of the software and hardware must be modified, the
Company estimates the cost of the year 2000 project will be approximately
$45,000 most of which has been expended through the third quarter of 1999. The
Company anticipates that the required modifications will be largely completed in
a timely fashion between now and year end and does not anticipate any material
interruption of its business stemming from the failure of its software and
hardware to be year 2000 compliant. The Company is focusing its efforts on those
systems which it believes are essential to its ability to conduct its operations
in the ordinary course of business. The modification, replacement and testing of
these essential systems has been completed as of the end of the third quarter of
1999.

         The Company has made an assessment of the year 2000 compliance of most
of its embedded microchips and other micro-processors in the non-information
technology equipment that it uses in its operations. While it is impossible to
be certain, the Company presently anticipates that it will be able to repair or
replace non-year 2000 compliant equipment as necessary without material
disruption to it operations.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11




         Even though the Company is in the process of converting its computer
and other systems so that they will be year 2000 compliant, it is possible that
third parties with whom the Company does business will encounter problems with
their systems that may have an adverse impact on the Company. The Company has
not ascertained the year 2000 compliance of the approximately 1,400 suppliers of
the products it distributes. However, no supplier accounts for more than 4.5% of
the Company's total purchases and substantially all products of the type
distributed by the Company are available from a number of manufacturers. The
Company has no contingency plan for addressing possible disruptions in utility
service to the Company stemming from year 2000 problems, such as power,
telephone and the like, but will rely on those suppliers to address their year
2000 issues in a timely manner so as to avoid a material disruption of service
to the Company.

         The Company is unable to predict with any certainty the reasonable
worst case scenario for disruption to its operations stemming from year 2000
issues. These could range from minor disruption of its operations requiring
temporary work-around solutions that may involve additional overtime or other
unanticipated costs, to the potential for lost sales and additional costs to
repair or replace equipment if the Company encounters greater disruption than is
currently anticipated.

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         Certain of the statements contained in this report (other than the
financial statements and other statements of historical fact) are
forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "believes", "estimates",
"anticipates", "in the process", "could", "target" and "objective" indicate the
presence of forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future
developments will be in accordance with management's expectations or that the
effect of future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by
management. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements are the
following:

- -        competitive pressures on sales and pricing, including those from other
         wholesale distributors and those from retailers in competition with the
         Company's customers;

- -        the Company's ability to achieve projected cost savings from its
         warehouse modernization program and ongoing cost reduction efforts;

- -        changes in cost of goods and the effect of differential terms and
         conditions available to larger competitors of the Company;

- -        uncertainties associated with any acquisition the Company may seek to
         implement;

- -        changes in general economic conditions, including interest rates; and

- -        impact of year 2000 on the Company's operations, including issues
         relating to the compliance or lack thereof by third-party suppliers.
