                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (UNAUDITED)

                                        


1.   UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial information included herein is unaudited, but in the opinion of
management reflects all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments, except for special charges described below) necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods.  The interim results of
operations and cash flows are not necessarily indicative of such results and
cash flows for the entire year.  The year-end condensed balance sheet data was
derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto contained in the ELEK-TEK, Inc. (the "Company") Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995.

2.   SPECIAL CHARGES

During the second quarter the Company incurred $6.4 million (pre-tax) in special
charges.  The charges taken by the Company consisted primarily of  vendor
payable adjustments of $3.5 million to reflect estimated amounts of contested
balances outstanding and an inventory valuation adjustment of $1.5 million, both
of which entries affected gross margin.  In addition, the Company recorded $1.1
million of charges to selling, general and administrative expense relating to
severance costs and recruiting costs associated with the transition at the
senior management level.  The Company has also recorded approximately $0.3
million in professional fees associated with the company-wide software
requirement definition and vendor software selection process.

3.   SHORT-TERM DEBT

On April 15, 1996, the Company extended its revolving bank credit agreement
through April, 1997.  The agreement requires the Company to maintain  financial
covenants including a minimum tangible net worth amount and a leverage ratio as
defined in the agreement.  The facility is subject to certain conditions,
including the Company be profitable for the third quarter and calendar year of
1996.  Based upon the results of the current quarter, the Company is in
violation of the tangible net worth and leverage ratio covenants and does not
anticipate being profitable for calendar year 1996.  The Company has obtained a
waiver  from  the bank of  these defaults through September 13, 1996.  This
waiver  requires that no other events of default occur through the September 13,
1996  and the Company executes and delivers to the bank a  modification
agreement to the credit agreement in a form satisfactory to the bank by the
September 13, 1996.  The debt is classified as current on the balance sheet at
June 30, 1996.

4.   INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded $0.8 million of deferred tax benefits at December 31, 1995.
Due to the loss recorded in the current period including additional reserves and
liabilities, the Company increased the deferred tax asset by  $4.4 million. 
Management believes that this deferred tax asset will be realized.

The Company's effective income tax rate in 1996 and 1995 varies from the federal
statutory tax rate of 34% principally due to state income taxes.

5.   RECLASSIFICATION

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior years' data to the
current presentation.  These reclassifications have no effect on operations or
total stockholders' equity of the Company.

Three Months Ended June 30, 1996


Net sales for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 were $77.3 million, a
decrease of $1.7 million (2.1%) from the $79.0 million for the comparable 1995
quarter.  Mail order  sales decreased $4.7 million (19.1%) and retail superstore
sales decreased $1.9 million (5.8%).  This was offset by  an increase in sales
from the corporate sales channel of $3.5  million (12.2%).

Corporate sales accounted for 42.0% of the Company sales for the second quarter.
Total corporate sales were $32.4 million  in the second quarter of 1996 versus
$28.9 million in the second quarter of 1995.  The sales increase was primarily
the result of  the success the sales staff has had in Chicago, increasing sales
to new and existing corporate customers by $1.9 million (14.9%).  Sales
continued to increase from the Kansas City and Denver markets, which were opened
in September and December of 1994, respectively.  Sales in Kansas City and
Denver increased $.7 million (33.7%) and $.3 million (6.5%).  In addition, 
government and educational sales increased by $.5 million primarily due to new
customers in the Chicago market.

The Company's mail order channel generated sales of $13.9 million in the second
quarter of 1996, which was a 19.1% decrease from the same period one year ago. 
The mail order business represented 18.0% of total sales in the second quarter
of 1996.  Similar to last year,  there was a catalog  mailed at the end of
March.  In 1996, there was an additional catalog distributed  in June which did
not have a significant impact on the second quarter's  results due to its late
distribution.   Management believes the sales decrease is primarily attributed
to the March catalog distribution decreasing by 17% and only including 50% of
the page count in comparison to the catalog mailed in 1995.   As the Company
receives additional vendor advertising support dollars, the Company's intention
is to increase the page count with each additional catalog distributed during
the remainder of 1996.  Also, the Company intends to reduce catalog distribution
expenses and to improve catalog revenues by improved targeting of selected
customers.


                                        7
<PAGE>

The retail superstore channel accounted for 40.0% of second quarter sales in
1996.  Retail sales decreased for the second quarter of 1996 by 5.8%  from 
$32.8 million in 1995 to $30.9 million in 1996,  despite one additional store
opening in the Chicago-Lakeview location.  The lower sales are due to a decrease
in retail store traffic and a lower average transaction size.  A decision was
made during the management changes to decrease advertising .   This impacted
sales in  the mail  order channel and to a greater degree in the retail
superstore channel.  The new senior management team plans an aggressive
marketing campaign to increase consumer awareness.  The new campaign will use
radio, print and direct mail pieces.  There is no assurance that the new
marketing campaign will result in additional sales.

Gross margin for the three month period ending June 30, 1996 was  $2.6 million
(3.4% of net sales)  compared to $11.3 million (14.3% of net sales) for the same
period one year ago.

During the current quarter there were special charge adjustments impacting gross
margin relating to accounts payable, to reflect estimated amounts of contested
balances outstanding and to inventory valuations.  Additionally, an adjustment
of $1.4 for inventory shrink was recorded in 1996 versus $.4 million recorded in
1995.  The impact of these adjustments lowered gross margin by  $6.4 million or
8.3 %  of  net sales in 1996.  Excluding these adjustments,  gross margin as a
percentage of sales would have been 11.7% in 1996.   The gross margin percentage
is down  from the same period last year as a result of lower vender rebates as
well as additional pressure put on gross margins by the consumer electronic and
office product retailers.  Both  of these groups price their computer products
aggressively as a way to gain market share and the Company has adjusted its
prices accordingly.  Whether significant pricing reductions will continue is
uncertain, but it is the Company's intent not to allow its competitors to gain a
pricing advantage in the markets in which it operates.  Additionally, because of
the larger proportion of sales now being contributed by corporate sales, which
are at lower  margin rates, the Company's overall gross margin percentage has
been reduced.

At the end of the second quarter of 1996, selling, general and administrative
expenses were $12.5 million (16.1% of net sales) compared to $9.8 million (12.4%
of net sales) for the comparable three month period in 1995, an increase of $2.7
million (27.3%).  The primary reason for the increase relates to  $.8 million in
higher charges and increases in the allowances for uncollectable trade accounts
receivable, returned customer checks and bankcard chargebacks;  a $.8 million
charge relating to severance costs associated with the 20% headcount reduction,
which the Company implemented, and  $.3 million  in recruiting costs associated
with the transition at the senior management level.  In addition,  the current
quarter's selling, general and administrative expenses are higher because of 
$.5 million in higher net advertising costs resulting from a lower level of
vendor reimbursement and $.3 million in professional fees associated with the
company-wide software requirement definition and vendor software selection
process.  These costs were offset in part by lower salary costs associated with
the headcount reduction. 

Interest expense for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 was $.6 million
compared to $.7 million for the same period one year ago.  The main reason for
the decrease was the lower average borrowing base during the second quarter in
1996.  Borrowings decreased due to lower inventory levels and improved cash
management practices. 

Net loss for the second quarter of 1996 was $6.3 million, compared to net income
for the same period in 1995 of $.6 million.



Six Months Ended June 30, 1996

For the six months ending June 30, 1996 net sales increased 1.9% from $162.8
million to $165.9 million.  Positive sales increases were generated by the
corporate sales channel which was partially offset by the decreases in the  mail
order and retail superstore sales channels during the period.  Corporate sales,
mail order and retail superstore contributed 38.8%, 18.4% and 42.8% of the total
sales respectively.


                                        8
<PAGE>

Growth was achieved by corporate sales, in which sales during the first six
month of 1996 grew by 15.8% from $55.6 million in 1995 to $64.4 million. 
Contributing to this increase were the Kansas City and Denver sales regions as
these operations continued to increase market share after they were opened in
September and December of 1994.  The Chicago region also continued to increase
market penetration .  Chicago, Kansas City and Denver corporate sales increased 
$2.6 million (10.1%), $2.9 million (78.7%), and $2.7 million  (41.4% )
respectively  over the first six month of 1995.  The Company's strongest base,
the Chicago region, accounted for 44.2% of total corporate sales.

The mail order sales decreased for the six month period ending June 30,1996 over
the same period last year.  Mail order sales declined from $32.9 million to
$30.5 million, a 7% decrease.  The mail order channel represented 18.4% of total
sales during the first six months of 1996. Similar to last year there was a
catalog  mailed at the end of March.  In 1996 there was an additional catalog
distributed  in June.  The June catalog mailing did not have a significant
impact to the first six month's results because of its late distribution.  
Management believes the sales decrease is primarily attributed to the March
catalog distribution decreasing by 17% and only including 50% of the page count
in comparison to the catalog mailed in 1995.  As the Company receives additional
vendor advertising support dollars, the Company's intention is to increase the
page count with each additional catalog distributed during the remainder of
1996.  Also, the Company intends to reduce catalog distribution expenses and to
improve catalog revenues by improved targeting of selected customers.      

Sales in the retail superstores channel declined 4.5% for the six month period
ending June 30,1996 over the same period last year from $74.3 million to $71.0
million.  The majority of this decrease occurred in the four existing
Chicagoland area stores.   The Denver and Kansas City stores also had sales
decreases while  the Indianapolis store sales increased slightly.  Offsetting
this were sales associated with the new Lakeview store which opened  in June of
1996.   The lower sales are due to a decrease in retail store traffic and a
lower average transaction size.  A decision was made during the management
changes to decrease advertising.  This impacted sales in  the mail  order
channel and to a greater degree in the retail superstore channel.  The new
senior management team plans an aggressive marketing campaign to increase
consumer awareness.  The new campaign will use radio, print and direct mail
pieces.  There is no assurance that the new marketing campaign will result in
additional sales.

For the six month period ended June 30, 1996 gross margin was $13.8 million
(8.3% of net sales) compared to $23.8 million (14.6% of net sales)  for the same
period last year.  During the second quarter  of 1996,  there were special
charge adjustments impacting gross margin relating to accounts payable, to
reflect estimated amounts of contested balances outstanding and to inventory
valuations. Additionally, an adjustment of $2.4 for inventory shrink was
recorded in 1996 versus $.6 million recorded in 1995.  The impact of these
adjustments lowered gross margin by  $7.4 million or 4.5 %  of  net sales in
1996.  Excluding these adjustments,  gross margin as a percentage of sales would
have been 12.8%.   This is down from the same period last year as a result of
lower vendor rebates, higher level of purchases from secondary sources as well
as additional pressure put on gross margins by the consumer electronic and
office products retailers.  Whether significant pricing reductions will continue
is uncertain, but it is the Company's intent not to allow its competitors to
gain a pricing advantage in the markets in which it operates.  Additionally,
because of the larger proportion of sales now being contributed by corporate
sales, which are at lower  margin rates, the Company's overall gross margin
percentage has been reduced

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month period ending
June 30, 1996 increased 16.1% from $20.7 ( 12.7% to net sales ) to $24.0 million
(14.5% to net sales ) from the same period last year.  The major reasons for the
$3.3 million increase were:

    Salaries increased $1.3 million primarily due to employee severance totaling
    $.9 million; the Company restructured the executive and middle
    management teams in  1996.  The remainder  of the increase was commission
    expense.  Commissions expense increased $.4 million which is related to the
    increase in corporate sales (15.8%) this period over the same period
    last year. 


                                        9
<PAGE>

     The Company incurred $.3 million in recruiting costs associated with the
     transition at the senior management level.
  
     Professional  fees increased $.5 million in the first six month of 1996
     versus the same period in 1995.  Approximately $.2 million  resulting
     from  the use of consultants for an inventory management project.  The
     consultants  were contracted to design and implement a new supply chain to
     reduce inventory levels while improving in-stock positions.  In addition,
     $.3 million in professional fees were incurred relating to the company-
     wide software requirement definition and vendor software selection process.

     An increase of  $.8 million in higher charges and increases in the
     allowances for uncollectable trade accounts receivable, returned
     customer checks and bankcard chargebacks.


Interest expense for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 was $1.1 million
compared to $1.3 million for the same period one year ago, a decrease of roughly
$.2 million.  The main reason for the decrease was the lower average borrowing
base during the first six months of  1996.  Borrowings decreased due to lower
inventory levels and because of improved cash management practices. 

Net loss was $6.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 compared
to $1.2 million net income for the same period last year.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used in operating activities for the six month period ended June 30,
1996 was $3.4 million compared to $10.6 million for the same six month period a
year ago.  The decrease in net cash used in operating activities during 1996
resulted from the net operating loss of $6.9 million, an additional deferred tax
asset of $4.4 million resulting from the net operating loss tax benefit and a
reduction in accounts payable of $5.1 million relating to the timing of
payments.  Primarily offsetting the above is  $10.1 million  of cash provided by
operating activities from inventory reduction because of improved inventory
stocking programs.  

Net cash used in investing activities consisted of property and equipment
acquisitions of $ 0.7 million, which primarily related to establishing the
company-wide computer network and leasehold improvements and equipment purchases
for the new retail superstore at the Lakeview-Chicago location.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $1.4 million and was primarily due
to net payments on the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Company expects to continue to finance future operations through cash flows
from operations and its revolving credit facility. Management expects cash
requirements to be lower than in 1995 but will increase during the remainder of
1996 because of seasonal factors.   The Company's revolving bank credit facility
remains at $35 million; at June 30, 1996 the outstanding balance was $25
million.  Recognition of the second quarter loss places the company in violation
of certain  basic covenants of its lending agreement with its principal bank
lender.  The Company has obtained a waiver  from  the bank of  these defaults
through September 13, 1996.  This waiver  requires that no other events of
default occur through the waiver date and the Company executes and delivers to
the bank a  modification agreement to the credit agreement in a form
satisfactory to the bank by the waiver date. 

The Company is prohibited from making principal payments on subordinated notes 
under its senior lending agreements.  During the second quarter the Company did
not make the principal payment on its subordinated debt.  One of the two
subordinated note holders notified the company he had not agreed to suspending
principal payments.
