NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of MicroAge, Inc.
(the "Company") do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods
have been included. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
with current year financial statement presentation. Operating results for the 39
weeks ended July 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending October 29, 2000. For further information, refer
to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 1999.

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed
using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent
shares outstanding. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of stock options
and warrants using the treasury stock method. The effect of stock options and
warrants is not included for all periods presented as it would be anti-dilutive.
The weighted average common and common equivalent shares consist of the
following (in thousands):

NOTE B - REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11

On April 13, 2000, the Company filed a voluntary petition in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona, (the "Bankruptcy Court") to
reorganize under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"). The Company is currently operating as a debtor-in-possession
under the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court. As a debtor-in-possession, the
Company is authorized to operate its business but may not engage in transactions
outside its ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court.

Subject to certain exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company's filing
for reorganization automatically enjoined the continuation of any judicial or
administrative proceedings against the Company. Any creditor actions to obtain
possession of property from the Company or to create, perfect or enforce any
lien against the property of the Company are also enjoined. As a result, the
creditors of the Company are precluded from collecting pre-petition debts
without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court.


                                       5
<PAGE>

The Company has the exclusive right for 120 days after the Chapter 11 filing on
April 13, 2000 to file a plan of reorganization and 60 additional days to obtain
necessary acceptances. Such periods may be extended at the discretion of the
Bankruptcy Court, but only on showing of good cause, and extensions have been
obtained such that the Company has until December 13, 2000 to file its plan of
reorganization with the Court or obtain an additional extension. Subject to
certain exceptions set forth in the Bankruptcy Code, acceptance of a plan of
reorganization requires approval of the Bankruptcy Court and the affirmative
vote (i.e., 50 percent of the number and 66-2/3 percent of the dollar amount) of
each class of creditors and equity holders whose claims are impaired by the
plan. At this time, the Company cannot predict when or whether a plan of
reorganization will be filed with the Bankruptcy Court, or whether any such plan
will be approved. Due to the large value of unsecured claims, the value of the
Company's common stock is highly speculative.

Certain pre-petition liabilities have been paid after obtaining the approval of
the Bankruptcy Court, including certain wages and benefits of employees,
insurance costs and payments to governmental agencies.

Parties to executory contracts may, under certain circumstances, file motions
with the Bankruptcy Court to require the Company to assume or reject such
contracts. An executory contract is one in which the parties have mutual
obligations to perform (e.g., real property leases). Unless otherwise agreed,
the assumption of a contract will require the Company to cure all prior defaults
under the related contract, including all pre-petition liabilities. Unless
otherwise agreed, the rejection of a contract is deemed to constitute a breach
of the agreement as of the moment immediately preceding the Chapter 11 filing,
giving the other party to the contract a right to assert a general unsecured
claim for damages arising out of the breach.

The Bankruptcy Court has established a last date for the filing of proofs of
claim under the Bankruptcy Code of September 20, 2000 by which the Company's
creditors must submit claims for liabilities not paid and for damages incurred.
There may be differences between the amounts at which any such liabilities are
recorded in the financial statements and the amount claimed by the Company's
creditors. Significant litigation may be required to resolve any such disputes.

The Company has incurred and will continue to incur significant costs associated
with the reorganization. The amount of these costs, which are being expensed as
incurred, are expected to significantly affect the results of operations.

Additional liabilities subject to the proceedings may arise in the future as a
result of the rejection of executory contracts, including leases, and from the
determination of the Bankruptcy Court (or agreement by parties in interest) of
allowed claims for contingencies and other disputed amounts. Conversely, the
assumption of executory contracts and unexpired leases may convert liabilities
shown as subject to compromise to post-petition liabilities. During the third
quarter of the current fiscal year, as part of the reorganization, the Company
has disavowed a significant number of operating leases. Any future liability for
these leases has not been included in the current financial statements as
reasonable estimates cannot be determined and any potential claims require
affirmation by the Bankruptcy Court for leases disavowed prior to July 30, 2000.
The potential liability, depending upon claims filed and Bankruptcy Court
rulings, could be between $0 and in excess of $13 million.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As a result of
the reorganization proceedings, there are uncertainties relating to the ability
of the


                                       6
<PAGE>

Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not
include all adjustments that might be necessary as a result of the outcome of
the uncertainties discussed herein including the effects of any plan of
reorganization.

The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 30, 2000 includes amounts for
wholly-owned subsidiaries which did not file for protection under Chapter 11 of
the Bankruptcy Code. Results of operations for non-filing entities are not
material to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. A condensed
balance sheet for these subsidiaries is as follows:

liabilities are expected to be settled as part of the plan of reorganization and
are classified as "Estimated liabilities subject to Chapter 11 proceedings".

Reorganization expense for the quarter ended July 30, 2000 is comprised of
$2,530,000 in professional fees that were realized or incurred by the Company as
a result of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and
$1,927,000 of accrued estimated salary expense for a retention plan approved by
the Bankruptcy Court in May, 2000. An additional $1,471,000 of reorganization
expenses was recorded in the second quarter of the current fiscal year for
professional fees that were realized or incurred by the Company as a result of
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

During the third quarter of the current fiscal year, as part of the
reorganization, the Company has disavowed a significant number of operating
leases. Any future liability for these leases has not been included in the
current financial statements as reasonable estimates cannot currently be
determined and any potential claims require affirmation by the Bankruptcy Court.

NOTE E - RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER ONE-TIME CHARGES

In response to lower revenue levels and gross margins, the Company has continued
during the third quarter to take actions to decrease operating expenses. These
actions include the elimination of several hundred positions at Pinacor and
MicroAge Technology Services (MTS), the closure of warehouse facilities and the
closure of branch locations.

In connection with these developments, during the quarter ended July 30, 2000,
the Company recorded $24.9 million of restructuring and other one-time charges.
All actions related to this restructuring were implemented as of July 30, 2000.
The restructuring and other one-time charges included: $2.5 million in employee
termination benefits (primarily severance pay); $2.5 million for facility
closure costs; $12.0 million for the write-off of impaired goodwill; and $7.9
million for the write-off of acquired intangible assets. The facility closure
costs include lease expense on closed facilities, losses on disposals of fixed
assets and other expenses related to the consolidation of facilities. The
Company recorded an additional $14.9 million of restructuring and other


                                       8
<PAGE>

one-time charges in the first and second quarters of the current fiscal year for
employee termination benefits and facility closure costs.

The charges associated with employee termination benefits consist primarily of
severance pay for approximately 540 associates. The reductions were completed by
July 30, 2000 and occurred in both Pinacor and MTS.

The goodwill written off during the quarter ended July 30, 2000 related to
businesses acquired primarily in fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1998. The acquired
intangible assets were originally capitalized in fiscal 1999. The related
operations were shut down during the third quarter ended July 30, 2000. The
filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and uncertainties
related to the Company's status as a debtor-in-possession caused the Company to
reassess the recoverability of these long-lived assets. The amounts to be
recovered from future expected cash flows is not material.

During the quarter ended May 2, 1999, the Company recorded $134 million of
restructuring and other one-time charges ($124 million, or $6.07 per share,
after taxes). The restructuring and other one-time charges included: a $123
million write-down of impaired goodwill, $8 million for the write-down to net
realizable value of software and equipment no longer utilized by the Company due
to the implementation of a new branch automation system; $2 million in employee
termination benefits; and $1 million for one-time contract termination and
business closure costs. The Company recorded an additional $5.4 million of
restructuring and other one-time charges in the third quarter fiscal year 1999
for employee termination benefits and facility closure costs.

The goodwill written off during the quarter ended May 2, 1999 resulted from
businesses acquired primarily in fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1998. Competitive
increases in the industry as well as operating losses caused the Company to
reassess the recoverability of its long-lived assets. The fair value of the
assets, determined through a discounted cash flow analysis as well as other
market analyses, was compared to the carrying amount of the asset. The
difference was recorded as a charge to earnings in the second quarter.

Included in estimated liabilities subject to Chapter 11 proceedings in the
accompanying balance sheet is an accrual of $14.5 million for restructuring and
other one-time charges from prior quarters which have not yet been paid. The
accrual primarily relates to lease expense for remaining terms on previously
closed facilities, net of anticipated sub-lease income.

As the Company continues to reduce its cost structure, additional restructuring
charges will be recognized in future quarters for severance and facility closure
costs.

NOTE F - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

On October 28, 1999, the Company entered into two new financing facilities (the
"Facilities"). The Facilities, as amended, provided for borrowings of up to $520
million and included a $300 million revolving credit facility and a $220 million
inventory financing facility; the Company also had a $20 million inventory
financing facility with another lender.

On April 13, 2000, the Company entered into a new Debtor-in-Possession Credit
Agreement (the "DIP Agreement"). The DIP Agreement provided for borrowings of up
to $210 million. On April 14, 2000 the DIP Agreement was used to pay in full the
outstanding balance on the Facilities discussed above. Due to decreased business
volumes, on August 22, 2000 the Company requested a decrease in DIP agreement to


                                       9
<PAGE>

$100 million. The Company also has a $25 million inventory financing facility
(the "Inventory Facility") and a $30 million post-petition secured obligation
(the "Secured Obligation") with another lender.

Borrowings under the DIP Agreement are secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets, subject to other liens permitted under the DIP Agreement. The
DIP Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, including capital
expenditure limitations, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amount.
The Company was out of compliance with debt covenants during the quarter ended
July 30, 2000 and has obtained a waiver of compliance through September 30,
2000. Although the Company anticipates obtaining additional waivers, due to the
Company's uncertainty of meeting its future debt covenants, the Company has
reclassified this debt as a current liability.

Borrowings under the DIP Agreement are limited based on borrowing base formulas
that consider eligible inventories and eligible accounts receivable. Borrowings
are also subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the
absence of any material adverse change in the Company's business or financial
condition.

Interest rates on the DIP Agreement are based on the agent's base rate plus a
specified margin or LIBOR plus a specified margin. The current margins are 2.0%
for base rate advances and 3.0% for LIBOR advances. The DIP Agreement also
includes letter of credit and unused line fees. The DIP Agreement has a
termination date of October 13, 2001. The total balance outstanding at July 30,
2000 was $86 million.

Payments for products purchased under the Inventory Facility are due 30 days
from the date of the advance. No interest or finance charges are payable on the
Inventory Facility if payments are made when due. The amount outstanding under
this facility, which was $13 million at July 30, 2000, is limited by minimum
collateral restrictions. In addition to the Inventory Facility, the Company has
a post-petition Secured Obligation with the same lender. The amount outstanding
under the Secured Obligation is $30 million and the interest rate is LIBOR plus
3.75%. The Inventory Facility and the Secured Obligation terminate on October
13, 2001 and are secured by a first priority lien on certain inventory and real
property of the Company and a blanket second lien on other assets of the
Company.

NOTE G - EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

During the quarter ended April 30, 2000 the Company expensed $9.6 million of
previously capitalized financing fees due to the termination of financing
facilities under which the fees were paid. Included in other assets at July 30,
2000 is $3.6 million in capitalized fees associated with the
Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement discussed above in "Financing
Arrangements".

NOTE H - INCOME TAX PROVISION

During the quarter ended April 30, 2000 the Company established reserves of $22
million against previously recorded deferred tax assets. These reserves were
established based on the Company's filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code and may be adjusted as the Company develops a plan for
reorganization.

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

Certain statements contained in this Item may be "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements may include projections of revenue and net
income and issues that may affect revenue or net income; projections of capital
expenditures; plans for future operations; financing needs or plans; plans
relating to the Company's products and services; and assumptions relating to the
foregoing. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and
uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events
and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated
by, or underlying the forward-looking information. Some of the important factors
that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
projected in forward-looking statements made by the Company include, but are not
limited to, the following: the Company's ability to finance product procurement;
intense competition; narrow margins; dependence on supplier incentive funds;
product supply and dependence on key vendors; potential fluctuations in
quarterly results; risks of declines in inventory values; the capital intensive
nature of the Company's business; dependence on information systems; dependence
on independent shipping companies; rapid technological change; and the Company's
status as a debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code. The Company
undertakes no obligations to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The Company has two primary businesses - MicroAge Technology Services ("MTS") an
integration business and Pinacor a distribution business operated through a
wholly-owned subsidiary.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Reorganization. On April 13, 2000, the Company filed a voluntary petition in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona, (the "Bankruptcy
Court") to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"). The Company is currently operating as a debtor-in-possession
under the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court. As a debtor-in-possession, the
Company is authorized to operate its business but may not engage in transactions
outside its ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court.

The Company has the exclusive right for 120 days after the Chapter 11 filing on
April 13, 2000 to file a plan of reorganization and 60 additional days to obtain
necessary acceptances. Such periods may be extended at the discretion of the
Bankruptcy Court, but only on showing of good cause, and extensions have been
obtained such that the Company has until December 13, 2000 to file its plan of
reorganization with the Court or obtain an additional extension. Subject to
certain exceptions set forth in the Bankruptcy Code, acceptance of a plan of
reorganization requires approval of the Bankruptcy Court and the affirmative
vote (i.e., 50 percent of the number and 66-2/3 percent of the dollar amount) of
each class of creditors and equity holders whose claims are impaired by the
plan. At this time, the Company cannot predict when or whether a plan of
reorganization will be filed with the Bankruptcy Court, or whether any such plan
will be approved. Due to the large value of unsecured claims, the value of the
Company's common stock is highly speculative.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As a result of
the reorganization proceedings, there are uncertainties relating to the ability
of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not
include all adjustments that might be necessary as a result of the outcome of
the uncertainties discussed herein including the effects of any plan of
reorganization.


                                       13
<PAGE>

Since the April 13 filing, significant bankruptcy related events include (i)
Bankruptcy Court entering a final order approving the DIP Agreement on May 24,
2000 (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below), (ii) Bankruptcy Court
approval of a series of motions providing for the rejection of real estate
leases no longer necessary to the operation of the Company's businesses, (iii)
Bankruptcy Court approval of the retention and severance plan offered to
employees by the Company, (iv) Bankruptcy Court approval for the sale of certain
miscellaneous equipment no longer necessary to the Company's operations, (v)
Bankruptcy Court approval for the rejection of several operating leases on
closed facilities, (vi) Bankruptcy Court establishing a last date for the filing
of proofs of claim under the Bankruptcy Code as September 20, 2000 by which the
Company's creditors must submit claims for liabilities not paid and for damages
incurred and (vii) Bankruptcy Court approval for an extension to file a plan of
reorganization until December 13, 2000.

Liquidity Issues. The Company's ability to continue to finance its business is
contingent upon improving cash flows through reductions in inventory and
accounts receivable, attaining forecasted sales levels, reducing operating
costs, and complying with financial covenants in its credit facilities.

During the first 39 weeks of the current fiscal year, the Company has
experienced greater than anticipated slowdown in revenue due to a combination of
low customer demand in the first 13 weeks due to Year 2000 concerns, an
inability to obtain a sufficient supply of product during the second and third
quarters of the current fiscal year and uncertainties regarding the Company's
status as a debtor-in-possession.

As discussed in greater detail in "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below, on
April 13, 2000, the Company entered into a new Debtor-in-Possession Credit
Agreement (the "DIP Agreement"). The DIP Agreement provides for borrowings of up
to $100 million.

RESPONSES TO CURRENT ISSUES

In response to lower revenue levels and gross margins, the Company has continued
to take actions to decrease operating expenses. These actions include the
elimination of several hundred positions at Pinacor and MTS, the closure of
warehouse facilities and the closure of branch locations.

In connection with these developments, during the quarter ended July 30, 2000,
the Company recorded $24.9 million of restructuring and other one-time charges.
All actions related to this restructuring were implemented as of July 30, 2000.
The restructuring and other one-time charges included: $2.5 million in employee
termination benefits (primarily severance pay); $2.5 million for facility
closure costs; $12.0 million for the write-off of goodwill; and $7.9 million for
the write-off of acquired intangible assets. The facility closure costs include
lease expense on closed facilities, liquidation costs and losses on disposals of
fixed assets.

The charges associated with employee termination benefits consist primarily of
severance pay for approximately 540 associates. The reductions were completed by
July 30, 2000 and occurred in both Pinacor and MTS.

The goodwill written off during the quarter ended July 30, 2000 resulted from
businesses acquired primarily in fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1998. The business
development fees were originally capitalized in fiscal 1999. The filing for
protection under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code and uncertainties


                                       14
<PAGE>

related to the Company's status as a debtor-in-possession  caused the Company to
reassess  the  recoverability  of these  long-lived  assets.  The  amounts to be
recovered from future expected cash flows is not material.

Included in accounts payable in the accompanying balance sheet is an accrual of
$14.5 million for restructuring and other one-time charges from prior quarters
which have not yet been paid. The accrual primarily relates to lease expense for
remaining terms on previously closed facilities, net of anticipated sub-lease
income.

As the Company continues to reduce its cost structure, additional restructuring
charges will be recognized in future quarters for severance and facility closure
costs.

TOTAL REVENUE. Total revenue of $377 million decreased $1.1 billion, or 75%, for
the quarter ended July 30, 2000 as compared to the quarter ended August 1, 1999.
This revenue decrease included a $1.2 billion, or 90%, decrease in Pinacor
(distribution business) revenue and a $189 million, or 42%, decrease in MTS
(integration business) revenue. The remaining change in consolidated revenue was
due to a decrease in the elimination of intercompany revenue. Total revenue for
the 39 weeks ended July 30, 2000 of $2.1 billion decreased $2.5 billion, or 53%,
as compared to the 39 weeks ended August 1, 1999.

The revenue decreases were due to several factors. As described in Changes in
Supplier Terms and Conditions, a change in Pinacor's sourcing relationship with
Compaq reduced Pinacor revenue compared to the prior year. In addition, the
company experienced a greater than anticipated reduction in demand in


                                       15
<PAGE>

the first fiscal quarter due to Year 2000 concerns. Revenue in both Pinacor and
MTS declined as customers reduced product purchases and service projects during
this period. Revenue continued to decline during the Company's second and third
fiscal quarters due to an inability to obtain a sufficient supply of product to
meet customer demand. During this period, the Company was unable to borrow
sufficient amounts from its lender or obtain adequate amounts of credit from
vendors to finance purchases of product. In addition, the Company's status as a
debtor-in-possession has had an impact on customer buying patterns.

Pinacor revenue will continue to decline from third quarter levels as Pinacor
significantly streamlined its operations to become a smaller and more focused
distributor.

GROSS PROFIT PERCENTAGE. The Company's gross profit percentage was 3.0% for the
quarter ended July 30, 2000 and 6.5% for the quarter ended August 1, 1999. The
gross profit percentage was 3.8% for the 39 weeks ended July 30, 2000 and 6.2%
for the 39 weeks ended August 1, 1999.

The decrease in the Company's gross profit percentage in fiscal 2000 as compared
to fiscal 1999 is primarily due to lower product margins in both Pinacor and
MTS. Gross margins on sales to reseller customers decreased due to increased
competitive pressures and an $11.0 million charge in the current quarter to
write down inventory held for resale to net realizable value. In addition,
changes in supplier terms and conditions impacted both Pinacor and MTS margins.
Supplier incentive funds were lower as a percentage of total revenue, and due to
reductions in price protection and return privileges, product costs were higher
in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999. The Company's margins on service revenue
in fiscal 2000 have declined from fiscal 1999 levels primarily due to lower
utilization of service personnel.

Future gross profit percentages may be affected by market pressures, the
introduction of new Company initiatives, changes in revenue mix, changes in
supplier incentive funds, changes in suppliers' terms and conditions, supplier
pricing actions, and other competitive and economic pressures. See "Potential
Fluctuations in Operating Results" below for information regarding industry
trends that may affect future gross profit percentages.

OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses totaled $47 million for the quarter ended
July 30, 2000, compared to $89 million for the quarter ended August 1, 1999.
Operating expenses also decreased from $285 million for the 39 weeks ended
August 1, 1999 to $187 million for the 39 weeks ended July 30, 2000. The
decrease is due to actions taken by the Company to reduce operating expenses and
to lower business volumes. See "Responses to Current Issues" above for a
discussion of actions taken.

OTHER EXPENSES - NET. Other expenses - net decreased to $7.5 million for the
quarter ended July 30, 2000 from $8.9 million for the quarter ended August 1,
1999. Other expenses- net increased to $36.3 million for the 39 weeks ended July
30, 2000 from $28.4 million for the 39 weeks ended August 1, 1999. The increase
in other expenses for the 39 weeks ended July 30, 2000 was primarily due to an
increase in financing costs during the first and second quarters of fiscal year
2000. Financing costs declined in the third quarter of the current fiscal year.

Financing costs increased in the first two quarters of fiscal 2000 due to
increased average borrowings as a result of changes in the Company's major
suppliers' policies. During the first quarter of fiscal 1999 certain major
suppliers changed the terms of their credit arrangements with the Company. These
changes include a decrease in the number of days the Company has to pay for
product purchases and a decrease in the amount of reseller purchases from the
Company that the suppliers are willing to subsidize. These changes increased the
Company's working capital requirements and financing costs. The increase in
financing costs were partially offset by a decrease in amortization expense due
to the write-down of impaired goodwill during the second quarter of fiscal


                                       16
<PAGE>

1999. Financing costs decreased in the third fiscal quarter due to lower average
borrowings as a result of lower business volume and asset levels. In addition,
the amounts paid to finance companies that provide credit lines to certain
reseller customers have declined due to the significant decline in Pinacor
revenue.

Reorganization expense for the quarter ended July 30, 2000 is comprised of
$2,530,000 in professional fees that were realized or incurred by the Company as
a result of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and
$1,927,000 of accrued estimated salary expense for a retention plan approved by
the Bankruptcy Court in May, 2000. An additional $1,471,000 of reorganization
expenses was recorded in the second quarter of the current fiscal year for
professional fees that were realized or incurred by the Company as a result of
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

INCOME TAX PROVISION. The income tax benefit was $136,000 for the quarter ended
July 30, 2000 and an income tax provision of $22 million for the 39 weeks ended
July 30, 2000. The provision for the 39 week period represents additional
reserves recorded in the second quarter to reduce deferred tax assets to
realizable value. These reserves were established based on the Company's filing
for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and may be adjusted as
the Company develops a plan for reorganization.

EXTRAORDINARY LOSS. During the quarter ended April 30, 2000 the Company expensed
$9.6 million of previously capitalized financing fees due to the termination of
financing facilities associated with these fees.

CHANGES IN SUPPLIER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The key suppliers of the Company provide various incentives for promoting and
marketing their product offerings. A large portion of the incentives is passed
on to the Company's customers. However, a portion of the incentives positively
impact the Company's income.

Beginning in fiscal 1998, the major manufacturers announced and/or instituted
changes in their sales incentive programs and inventory management programs.
Pursuant to these changes, the major manufacturers (i) reduced the amount of
product that the Company is allowed to return, (ii) reduced the amount of price
protection coverage offered to the Company and (iii) reduced the amount of
incentives based on sales of the manufacturers' products.

In addition, the Company's major suppliers changed the terms of their credit
arrangements with the Company. These changes include a decrease in the number of
days the Company has to pay for product purchases including prepayment
requirements and a decrease in the amount of reseller purchases from the Company
that the suppliers are willing to subsidize. These changes increased the
Company's working capital requirements and financing costs. Further changes in
incentives or other terms and conditions could have a further material adverse
effect on the Company's operating results.

Since the Chapter 11 filing, the company has generally not been successful in
obtaining credit terms with its unsecured vendors. Terms with most vendors have
been on a prepay or net 1 day basis.

During the quarter ended August 1, 1999, the Company announced a change in the
Pinacor product sourcing relationship with Compaq. In October 1999, the Company
began sourcing certain Compaq products from other Compaq distributors instead of
sourcing directly from Compaq. During the quarter ended July 30, 2000, Compaq
sales decreased approximately $239 million, or 83%, when compared to


                                       17
<PAGE>

the quarter ended August 1, 1999. In addition to the declines in Compaq revenue,
the Company believes that sales of other suppliers' products have decreased as
customers that purchase Compaq products from other sources moved purchases of
other products to those sources.

POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY RESULTS

The Company's operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter
depending on certain factors, including, but not limited to, demand for the
Company's information technology products and services, the impact of the
Company's Chapter 11 filing, the amount of supplier incentive funds received by
the Company, product availability, competitive conditions, new product
introductions, changes in customer order patterns, changes in supplier terms and
conditions and general economic conditions. In particular, the Company's
operating results are sensitive to changes in the mix of product and service
revenues, product margins, inventory adjustments and interest rates. Although
the Company attempts to control its expense levels, these levels are based, in
part, on anticipated revenues. Therefore, the Company may not be able to control
spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.
As a result, quarterly period-to-period comparisons of the Company's financial
results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an
indication of future performance. In addition, although the Company's financial
performance has not exhibited significant seasonality in the past, the Company
and the computer industry in general tend to follow a sales pattern with peaks
occurring near the end of the calendar year, due primarily to special supplier
promotions and year-end business purchases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has financed its cash needs to date primarily through working
capital financing facilities, bank credit lines, common stock offerings and cash
generated from operations. The primary uses of cash have been to fund working
capital requirements.

The Company has taken actions to reduce operating costs, including reductions in
headcount and the closure of certain warehouse facilities and the elimination of
branch facilities (see "Responses to Current Issues" above). The Company will
continue to implement cost cutting measures, including additional reductions in
headcount and the closure of additional facilities. The Company has positive net
working capital, exclusive of estimated liabilities subject to Chapter 11
review, of $179 million at July 30, 2000. The Company's continuing liquidity is
contingent upon improving cash flows through reductions in inventory and
accounts receivable, attaining forecasted sales levels, reducing operating
costs, and meeting financial covenants in the Debtor-in-Possession Credit
Agreement ( the "DIP Agreement" - see Note F to the Company's consolidated
financial statements).

Cash used in operating activities was $63 million in the 39 weeks ended July 30,
2000 as compared to $66 million provided by operating activities in the 39 weeks
ended August 1, 1999. The cash used in operating activities for the 39 weeks
ended July 30, 2000 was due to cash losses from operations and to a decrease in
accounts payable offset by a decrease in inventory and accounts receivable. The
decrease in accounts payable and inventory was due to a decrease in business
volume as well as a decrease in credit support from the Company's suppliers.

The decrease in accounts receivable was due to a decrease in revenue as well as
the Company's aggressive collection efforts. Accounts receivable at October 31,
1999 were net of $255 million of receivables sold to a finance company. The
change in gross accounts receivable between October 31, 1999 and July 30, 2000
was $324 million.

Cash used in investing activities decreased from $46 million in the first 39
weeks of fiscal 1999 to $7 million in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2000
primarily due to a decrease in purchases of property and equipment.

Cash provided by financing activities was $39 million in the first 39 weeks of
fiscal 2000 compared to $0.4 million in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 1999. The
change was primarily due to increased borrowings under the Company's line of
credit.

On October 28, 1999, the Company entered into two new financing facilities (the
"Facilities"). The Facilities, as amended, provided for borrowings of up to $520
million and included a $300 million revolving credit facility and a $220 million
inventory financing facility; the Company also had a $20 million inventory
financing facility with another lender.

On April 13, 2000, the Company entered into a new Debtor-in-Possession Credit
Agreement (the "DIP Agreement"). The DIP Agreement provided for borrowings of up
to $210 million. On April 14, 2000 the DIP Agreement was used to pay in full the
outstanding balance on the Facilities discussed above. Due to decreased business
volumes, on August 22, 2000 the Company requested a decrease in DIP agreement to
$100 million. The Company also has a $25 million inventory financing facility
(the "Inventory Facility") and a $30 million post-petition secured obligation
(the "Secured Obligation") with another lender.

Borrowings under the DIP Agreement are secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets, subject to other liens permitted under the DIP Agreement. The
DIP Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, including capital
expenditure limitations, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amount.
The Company was out of compliance with debt covenants during the quarter ended
July 30, 2000 and has obtained a waiver of compliance through September 30,
2000. Although the Company anticipates obtaining additional waivers, due to the
Company's uncertainty of meeting its future debt covenants, the Company has
reclassified this debt as a current liability.

Borrowings under the DIP Agreement are limited based on borrowing base formulas
that consider eligible inventories and eligible accounts receivable. Borrowings
are also subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the
absence of any material adverse change in the Company's business or financial
condition.

Interest rates on the DIP Agreement are based on the agent's base rate plus a
specified margin or LIBOR plus a specified margin. The current margins are 2.0%
for base rate advances and 3.0% for LIBOR advances. The DIP Agreement also
includes letter of credit and unused line fees. The DIP Agreement has a
termination date of October 13, 2001. The total balance outstanding at July 30,
2000 was $86 million.

Payments for products purchased under the Inventory Facility are due 30 days
from the date of the advance. No interest or finance charges are payable on the
Inventory Facility if payments are made when due. The amount outstanding under
this facility, which was $13 million at July 30, 2000, is limited by minimum
collateral restrictions. In addition to the Inventory Facility, the Company has
a post-petition Secured Obligation with the same lender. The amount outstanding
under the Secured Obligation is $30 million and the interest rate is LIBOR plus
3.75%. The Inventory Facility and the Secured Obligation terminate on October
13, 2001 and are secured by a first priority lien on certain inventory and real
property of the Company and a blanket second lien on other assets of the
Company.
