  NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              Six Months Ended December 31, 1997 and 1996
  
  
  
A.   Corporate Name Change:
  
     On November 12, 1997, Southern Electronics Corporation changed
     its corporate name to SED International Holdings, Inc.  The
     stockholders of Southern Electronics Corporation approved the
     name change at the 1997 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on
     November 11, 1997.  
  
B.   Interim Financial Statements:
  
     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of
     SED International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the
     "Company") have been prepared without audit.  In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
     adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
     been included.  The results of operations for the six (6) months
     ended December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
     operating results for the full year.
  
     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted. 
     It is suggested that these financial statements be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated  financial statements and notes
     thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K,
     filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year
     ended June 30, 1997.
  
C.   Purchase of Business:
  
     On November 30, 1997, the Company acquired the outstanding stock
     of Magna Distribuidora Ltda. (Magna), a distributor of computer
     peripherals and software products located in S o Paulo, Brazil
     for approximately $1,416,000, including $370,000 in expenses,
     consisting of 79,719 shares of the Company's common stock valued
     at $1,046,000 and $370,000 in cash.  Of the 79,719 shares, 
     54,039 are being held in escrow through November 30, 2002 subject
     to the indemnification provisions of the acquisition. The Company
     is also required to pay additional consideration through November
     30, 1999 based on the net earnings of Magna, as defined.  Such
     additional consideration, if paid, will be recognized as
     goodwill.
  
     This acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method
     of accounting.  Goodwill arising from this acquisition is being
     amortized using the straight-line method over 30 years.  The
     operating results of the acquired business are included in the
     Company's consolidated statements of earnings from the date of
     acquisition.
  
D.   Start-up Expense:
  
     As a result of a transaction with Globelle, Inc. (Globelle) in
     June 1997, the Company acquired the distribution rights for
     certain significant vendor lines in the United States and
     subsequently hired 36 experienced sales people formerly with
     Globelle.  Because the Globelle transaction was not an
     acquisition of a going business concern, a transition period
     followed the close of that transaction during which the
     newly-hired sales people became acclimated to the Company's
     policies, procedures, and product offerings, and the inventory of
     new product lines became stocked at the Company's warehouses.  As
     a result of this transaction, the Company incurred start-up
     expenses principally during the first fiscal quarter ended
     September 30, 1997 reflecting costs associated with the hiring of
     new sales people, opening new sales offices and other transition
     expenses.  
<PAGE>  
E.   Stockholders' Equity:
    
     The Company completed a secondary stock offering of 3,000,000
     primary shares of common stock effective on October 6, 1997 with
     proceeds to the Company of $54,280,000, net of offering costs.
   
     On November 11, 1997 the Company's stockholders approved an
     increase in the number of shares of common stock authorized for
     issuance to 100,000,000 from 25,000,000.
  
F.   Earnings Per Share:
  
     Beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 1997, earnings per
     share ("EPS") is computed in accordance with Statement of
     Financial Accounting Standards Number ("SFAS") 128.  All prior
     period EPS data has been restated to conform with SFAS 128. 
     Under SFAS 128, presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the    
     income statement is required.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing
     income available to common stockholders by the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS
     is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS under Accounting
     Principles Board No. 15.  For all periods presented, the
     Company's diluted EPS differs from basic EPS solely from the    
     effect of dilutive stock options.

ITEM 2:   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
  
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
  
Three Months Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended
December 31, 1996
  
On November 30, 1997, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of
Magna Distribuidora, Ltda. (Magna), a distributor of computer
peripherals and software products located in S o Paulo, Brazil.  The
operating results of Magna for December 1997 were included in the
consolidated results of operations for the quarter ended December 31,
1997 and were immaterial.
  
Net sales increased 40.8%, or $62.5 million, to $215.8 million in the
second quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to $153.3 million in
the second quarter ended December 31, 1996.  This growth resulted from
an increase in both United States net sales and export net sales,
principally into Latin America.  Sales of microcomputer products
represented approximately 86.6% of the Company's second quarter ended
December 31, 1997 net sales compared to 92.2% for the second quarter
ended December 31, 1996.  Sales of wireless telephone products
acounted for approximately 13.4% of the Company's second quarter ended
December 31, 1997 net sales compared to 7.8% for the second quarter
ended December 31, 1996.
  
Gross profit increased 34.0%, or $3.4 million, to $13.2 million in the
second quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to $9.8 million in the
second quarter ended December 31, 1996.  Gross profit as a percentage
of net sales decreased to 6.1% in the second quarter ended December
31, 1997 from 6.4% in the second quarter ended December 31, 1996.  The
dollar increase in gross profit relates directly to the increase in
net sales.  The decrease in the gross profit percentage was primarily
due to continued highly competitive pricing.
  
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 31.5%, or $1.9
million, to $8.2 million in the second quarter ended December 31,
1997, compared to $6.3 million in the second quarter ended December
31, 1996.  These expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to
3.8% in the second quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to 4.1% in
the second quarter ended December 31, 1996.  The dollar increase in
these expenses was primarily due to increased salaries and commissions
for salespeople and expanded sales and distribution facilities.  The
percentage decrease in these expenses was primarily due to the
Company's ability to control variable costs over a larger sales base.
  
Net interest expense increased 47.2%, or $.2 million, to $.6 million
in the second quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to $.4 million
in the second quarter ended December 31, 1996.  Interest expense as a
percentage of net sales was 0.2% in each of the second quarters ended
December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996.  The increase in interest
expense was primarily due to borrowing costs associated with funding
increased levels of working capital.
  
Income tax expense was recorded at an effective annual rate of 39.1%
in the second quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to 38.4% in the
second quarter ended December 31, 1996.
  
Six Months Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Six Months Ended
December 31, 1996
  
Net sales increased 37.1%, or $116.4 million, to $429.8 million for
the six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $313.4 million for
the six months ended December 31, 1996.  This growth resulted from an
increase in both United States net sales and export net sales,
principally into Latin America.  Sales of microcomputer products
represented approximately 85.6% of the Company's net sales for the six
months ended December 31, 1997 compared to 93.0% for the six months
ended December 31, 1996.  Sales of wireless telephone products
accounted for approximately 14.4% of the Company's net sales for the
six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to 7.0% for the six months
ended December 31, 1996.

ITEM 2:   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (continued)
  
  
Gross profit increased 31.6%, or $6.0 million, to $24.8  million in
the six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $18.8 million for
the six months ended December 31, 1996.  Gross profit as a percentage
of net sales decreased to 5.8% in the six months ended December 31,
1997 from 6.0% in the six months ended December 31, 1996.  The dollar
increase in gross profit relates directly to the increase in net
sales.  The decrease in the gross profit percentage was primarily due
to continued highly competitive pricing. 
  
Selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding $1.4 million
of start-up expenses) increased 25.5%, or $3.0 million,  to $15.0 
million for the six months ended December 31, 1997, compared to $12.0
million for the six months ended December 31, 1996.  These expenses as
a percentage of net sales decreased to 3.5% for the six months ended
December 31, 1997 compared to 3.8% for the six months ended December
31, 1996.  The dollar increase in these expenses was primarily due to
increased salaries and commissions for salespeople and expanded sales
and distribution facilities.  The percentage decrease in these
expenses was primarily due to the Company's ability to control
variable costs over a larger sales base.
  
As a result of a transaction with Globelle, Inc. (Globelle) in June
1997, the Company acquired the distribution rights for certain
significant vendor lines in the United States and subsequently hired
36 experienced sales people formerly with Globelle.  Because the
Globelle transaction was not an acquisition of a going business
concern, a transition period followed the close of that transaction
during which the newly-hired sales people became acclimated to the
Company's policies, procedures, and product offerings, and the
inventory of new product lines became stocked at the Company's
warehouses.  As a result of this transaction, the Company incurred
$1.4 million of start-up expenses during the fiscal quarter ended
September 30, 1997 reflecting costs associated with the hiring of new
sales people, opening new sales offices and other transition expenses.
  
Net interest expense increased 131.5%, or $1.0 million, to $1.8 
million for the six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $.8
million for the six months ended December 31, 1996.  Interest expense
as a percentage of net sales increased to .4% for the six months ended
December 31, 1997 compared to .2% for the six months ended December
31, 1996.  The increase in interest expense was primarily due to
borrowing costs associated with funding increased levels of working
capital.
  
Income tax expense was recorded at an effective annual rate of 39.0%
for the six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to 38.6% for the
six months ended December 31, 1996.

ITEM 2:   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (continued)
  
Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
  
The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from the funding
of working capital needs, including inventories and trade accounts
receivable.  Historically, the Company has financed its liquidity
needs largely through internally generated funds, borrowings under its
credit agreement and vendor lines of credit.  The Company derives all
of its operating income and cash flow from its subsidiaries and relies
on payments from its subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to
meet its obligations.  As the Company pursues its growth strategy and
acquisition opportunities both in the United States and in Latin
America, management believes that exchange controls in certain
countries may limit the ability of the Company's present and future
subsidiaries in those countries to make payments to the Company.
  
Operating activities used $27.1 million of cash in the six months
ended December 31, 1997.  The use of cash resulted primarily from
increases of $19.8 million in accounts receivable and $24.9 million in
inventory, partially offset by net earnings of $4.1 million and a
$10.6 million increase in accounts payable, net of the effects of
acquired business.
  
Investing activities used $3.6 million of cash in the six months ended
December 31, 1997.  The use of cash was primarily due to the purchase
of equipment and distribution rights.
  
Financing activities provided $32.3 million.  On October 6, 1997, the
Company received $54.3 million net of costs from a public stock
offering of 3,000,000 primary shares of Common Stock.  The net
proceeds from this stock offering were used to reduce indebtedness
under the Company's credit agreement.  Additional financing activities
relate to the exercise of stock options for $.95 million and net
borrowings of $31.3 million under the Company's Credit Agreement.
  
The Company, and its subsidiary, SED International, Inc., are parties
to a credit agreement, which provides for a secured line of credit of
$100.0 million.  The Company may borrow at the prime rate offered by
Wachovia Bank, N.A. (8.50% at December 31, 1997) or the Company may
fix the interest rate for periods of 30 to 180 days under various
interest rate options.  The credit agreement requires a commitment fee
of 0.25% of the unused commitment.  The credit agreement is secured by
accounts receivable and inventory and requires maintenance of certain
minimum working capital and other financial ratios and has certain
dividend restrictions. The credit agreement expires in August 2000. 
At December 31, 1997, the Company had principal borrowings of $33.0
million under the credit agreement at a weighted average interest rate
of 7.77% per annum.
  
In the event the Company seeks to grow more rapidly than presently
contemplated, whether through internal growth or growth through
acquisitions, the Company may need to seek additional financing, which
financing may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms.
  
Management believes that the credit agreement, together with vendor
lines of credit, the proceeds from the recently completed public
offering,  and internally generated funds, will be sufficient to
satisfy its working capital needs during fiscal 1998.  The credit
agreement permits up to $30.0 million to be borrowed for the purpose
of financing acquisitions, subject to a limitation of $15.0 million
for any one acquisition, and further subject to compliance with the
other terms of the credit agreement.

               In determining interest for purposes of this Section
          2.05 and fees for purposes of Section 2.06, the Borrowers
          and the Banks shall refer to the Borrowers' most recent 10-Q
          consolidated quarterly financial statements delivered
          pursuant to Section 6.01(i).  If such financial statements
          require a change in interest pursuant to this Section 2.05
          or fees
<PAGE>
          pursuant to Section 2.06, the Borrowers shall deliver to the
          Agent, along with such financial statements, a notice to
          that effect, which notice shall set forth in reasonable
          detail the calculations supporting the required change.  The
          "Performance Pricing Determination Date" is the first day of
          the month after the date of receipt of such financial
          statements pursuant to Section 6.01(i).  Any such required
          change in interest and fees shall become effective on such
          Performance Pricing Determination Date, and shall be in
          effect until the next Performance Pricing Determination
          Date, provided that: (i) for Euro-Dollar Loans, changes in
          interest shall only be effective for Interest Periods
          commencing on or after the Performance Pricing Determination
          Date; and (ii) no fees or interest shall be decreased
          pursuant to this Section 2.05 or Section 2.06 if a Default
          is in existence on the Performance Pricing Determination
          Date.  In the event that the Borrowers fail to deliver their
          10-Q quarterly financial statements to the Agent and the
          Banks on or before the 45th day after the end of any Fiscal
          Quarter, then the Applicable Margin shall be the highest
          Applicable Margin then in effect until the next Performance
          Pricing Determination Date."
  
          3.  Restatement of Representations and Warranties.  Each of
the Borrowers hereby restates and renews each and every representation
and warranty heretofore made by it in the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as fully as if made on the  date hereof and with

forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents effective

in this Amendment have substantive meaning or content of any kind
<PAGE>

hereto evidenced hereby.

to enter into this Amendment and to continue to make advances pursuant
to the Credit Agreement, each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges and
agrees that, as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the
terms hereof, (i) there exists no Default or Event of Default, (ii)
there exists no right of offset, defense, counterclaim, claim or
objection in favor of the Borrowers arising out of or with respect to
any of the Loans or other obligations of the Borrowers owed to the
Banks under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) the Agent and each of the
Banks has acted in good faith and has conducted its relationships with
each of the Borrowers in a commercially reasonable manner in
connection with the negotiations, execution and delivery of this
Amendment and in all respects in connection with the Credit Agreement,
each of the Borrowers hereby waiving and releasing any such claims to
the contrary. 
  
         9.  Further Assurances.  Each of the Borrowers agrees to take
such further actions as the Agent reasonably requests in connection
herewith to evidence the amendments herein contained to the Borrowers.
  
         10.  Governing Law.  This Amendment is governed by, and
construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Georgia.
  
         11.  Conditions Precedent.  This Amendment becomes effective
only upon execution and delivery of this Amendment by each of the
