                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   (INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE SIX MONTHS
                   ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999 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 30, 2000.

         As noted in the March, 2000 Form 10-Q, the Company receives vendor
allowances for certain promotional activities that it performs for its
customers. These allowances partially offset selling and administrative
expense. In the past, the Company recognized vendor allowances during the
specific expected benefit period of the related activity. However, the Company
has determined that these promotional activities benefited the overall sales of
the Company. In the first quarter 2000, the Company elected to change its
estimate of the benefit period of these vendor allowances and began recognizing
the vendor allowances during the interim period in relation to estimated annual
sales. The impact of the change is to increase selling and administrative
expense and to increase the reported loss before income taxes for the second
quarter of 2000 by approximately $30,000 and to reduce income before taxes
approximately $208,000 for the first six months of 2000. The effect of the
change was to increase the net loss per share by $.01 for the second quarter of
2000 and by $.07 for the first six months of 2000. This change has no impact on
annual reporting. Had operations been reported this year the same as last year,
the Company's second quarter loss would have been $.07 per share and net income
for the six months ending June 30, 2000 would have been $.03 per share.

         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 and second quarter of 2000 and 1999.

3.       REVENUE RECOGNITION

         The Company recognizes revenues when goods are shipped.

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

SUMMARY

         Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 decreased $4,062,000 or
9.5% from the same quarter in 1999. The net loss per share for the quarter
ended June 30, 2000 was $.08 per share compared to net income per share of $.01
per share for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. We attribute the decline mainly
to higher interest rates, tighter credit, and lower housing sales. Despite the
sales decrease, gross profit was down only $12,000 in the second quarter of
2000 when compared to the same period in 1999. Other operational expenses
increased $192,000 or 5.3% during the second quarter of 2000 compared to the
second quarter of 1999. Interest expense also increased $67,000 due primarily
to the increase in the prime rate. The net effect was a net loss during the
quarter ending June 30, 2000 of $147,000 compared to a net profit of $20,000
for the quarter ending June 30, 1999.

         As noted in the March, 2000 Form 10-Q, the Company receives vendor
allowances for certain promotional activities that it performs for its
customers. These allowances partially offset selling and administrative
expense. In the past, the Company recognized vendor allowances during the
specific expected benefit period of the related activity. However, the Company
has determined that these promotional activities benefited the overall sales of
the Company. In the first quarter 2000, the Company elected to change its
estimate of the benefit period of these vendor allowances and began recognizing
the vendor allowances during the interim period in relation to estimated annual
sales. The impact of the change is to increase selling and administrative
expense and to increase the reported loss before income taxes for the second
quarter of 2000 by approximately $30,000 and to reduce income before taxes
approximately $208,000 for the first six months of 2000. The effect of the
change was to increase the net loss per share by $.01 for the second quarter of
2000 and by $.07 for the first six months of 2000. This change has no impact on
annual reporting. Had operations been reported this year the same as last year,
the Company's second quarter loss would have been $.07 per share and net income
for the six months ending June 30, 2000 would have been $.03 per share.

NET SALES

         Warehouse shipments decreased $1,864,000 or 6.5% and factory direct
shipments decreased $2,198,000 or 15.5% during the quarter ended June 30, 2000
compared to the same quarter in 1999. For the six months, warehouse shipments
decreased only 1.7% while factory direct shipments decreased 13.0%. The Company
has been making a concerted effort through coordinated sales planning and
activities to increase the warehouse shipments as a percentage of total sales.

         Gross margins on direct shipments are lower than gross margins on
warehouse shipments; however, expenses related to direct shipments are also
lower. Although factory direct shipments result in lower over all gross margin
percentages, 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:

GROSS MARGIN

         The gross margin percentage for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was
16.8%, up from 16.0% in the second quarter of 1999, and for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 increased 1.1% compared to the prior year period. The
increase is due to a higher percentage of warehouse shipments and positive
competitive pricing adjustments.

         The following table sets forth the gross margin dollars, gross margin
percentages and year-over-year changes for 1999 and the first and second
quarter of 2000:

INTEREST EXPENSE

         Interest expense increased $67,000 or 21.1% during the second quarter
of 2000 compared to the same period during 1999 and increased $122,000 or 19.2%
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. The
increase was due primarily to interest on the Company's working capital line of
credit being charged at the prime rate of interest which was 7.75% during the
first six months of 1999 and averaged 8.96% during the same period in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         From December 31, 1999 to June 30, 2000, the Company's net trade
receivables increased by $1,955,000 or 8.5%. The increase was due to the higher
level of sales during the first six months of 2000 (which includes shipments of
orders taken at the Dealers' Mart held during June 2000) and because of
extended terms given to customers as a part of the sales promotion in
conjunction with the Dealers' Mart.

         Inventories decreased by $1,817,000 or 9.9% in the six months ended
June 30, 2000.

         Accounts payables increased $119,000 at June 30, 2000, or .6% from
December 31, 1999, because of extended terms received from suppliers in
connection with the Dealers' Marts.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company had unused lines of credit of
$6,764,000, which it believes are adequate to finance its working capital
requirements. In March 2000, the Company executed a working capital line
increase and extension. This new line allows for a maximum borrowing of
$24,000,000 and, in addition to 85% of eligible receivables, it is secured with
50% of eligible inventory up to $6,000,000. This new line has a term of 3
years. The Company believes this credit facility is adequate to finance its
working capital needs.

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 June 30,
2000, $17,236,000 was outstanding under the credit agreement and $1,294,000 was
outstanding under the industrial development lease agreement. For 1999, the
average principal amount outstanding under the credit agreement was
$15,818,000. Assuming the average amount outstanding under the credit agreement
during 2000 is equal to such average amount outstanding during 1999 and
assuming the Company makes its scheduled amortization payments on its
industrial development lease of $769,000 in 2000, a 1% increase in the
applicable interest rate during 2000 would result in additional interest
expense of approximately $170,000, which would reduce cash flow and pre-tax
earnings dollar for dollar.

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" and, "believes", 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 and;

-        changes in general economic conditions, including interest rates.
