                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors of
Dearborn Wire and Cable L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DEARBORN WIRE
AND CABLE L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the years then
ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Dearborn Wire and Cable L.P.
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided over
the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using a combination of
accelerated and straight-line methods.  The estimated useful lives are as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
 
       ASSET DESCRIPTION            ASSET LIFE
       -----------------            ----------
<S>                               <C>
Buildings                         10 to 35 years
Leasehold improvements            5 to 31.5 years
Machinery and equipment            5 to 8 years
Office furniture and equipment     3 to 8 years
Vehicles                           3 to 5 years
</TABLE>

Depreciation expense included in the consolidated statements of income was
approximately $1,092,000 and $749,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

<PAGE>
 
INTANGIBLE

The intangible asset represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net
assets of one of the divisions at the date that division was acquired (which was
prior to November 1, 1970). the excess is not being amortized against
operations.  In management's opinion, this intangible asset is considered to
have continuing value over an indefinite period of time.

EXCESS OF ACQUIRED NET ASSETS OVER COST

In 1993, the Partnership acquired assets and assumed liabilities related to
Thermax.  The excess of the fair market value of net assets purchased over
acquisition cost of approximately $423,000 is being amortized as a credit to
income on a straight-line basis over five years from the date of acquisition.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company continually evaluates whether circumstances have occurred that
indicate the remaining useful life of its long-lived assets may warrant revision
or that the remaining balance of such assets may not be recoverable.  When
factors indicate that such assets should be evaluated for possible impairment,
the Company uses an estimate of the related business segment's undiscounted cash
flows over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether the asset is
recoverable.

MANAGEMENT'S USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period.  Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

2.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

AFFILIATED COMPANIES

During 1996 and 1995, the Partnership transacted business with Cable Technology,
Inc. (Cable Technology).  Certain partners of the Partnership are among the
owners of Cable Technology.  Purchases from this related party were
approximately $874,000 and $955,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

The Partnership was the guarantor of two obligations incurred by affiliated
companies totaling approximately $2,107,000 and $2,223,000 at December 31, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

<PAGE>
 
In June of 1992, the Partnership entered into a lease agreement with an
affiliated company that expires on May 31, 1997.  Rent payments to the
affiliated company for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, were
approximately $243,000 per year.

3. DEBT

Long-term debt consists of a note payable to the Village of Wheeling, Illinois,
under an industrial revenue bond arrangement and bears interest at approximately
5.94% at   December 31, 1996 and 1995.  The note was paid in full on April 7,
1997, the date of acquisition (see Note 13).

A guaranty agreement relating to these notes contains restrictive covenants
regarding minimum Partnership equity and working capital requirements and
limitations on payments of distributions to partners, among other things.  At
December 31, 1996, the Partnership was in compliance with or had received
waivers for all covenants.

4. INCOME TAXES

The income of the Partnership will be included with that of each partner for
income tax purposes. The Partnership is responsible only for certain state
income taxes.

5.  401(K) PLAN

The Partnership sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan covering
substantially all employees. A portion of compensation deferred by nonunion
employees is matched by the Partnership, subject to certain vesting provisions.
Partnership contributions to the plan totaled approximately $166,000 and
$167,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996, and 1995, respectively.

6.  EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

Under agreements dated June 1, 1992, between the Partnership and two of its
partners, the Partnership agreed to compensate these partners, who are active
participants in the operation of the business, at a fixed annual salary plus a
bonus equal to a percentage of the Partnership's net income as defined in the
agreements. This compensation is included in general and administrative expenses
in the determination of net income.

The Partnership also has deferred compensation arrangements with certain
employees. Amounts earned each year vest ratably over periods ranging from three
to five years. Such amounts are paid out over periods ranging from three to six
years. Amounts are fully expensed in the year earned. Included in accounts
payable and accrued expenses is the portion of deferred compensation to be paid
in the next year.
<PAGE>
 
7. MINORITY INTEREST IN SUBSIDIARY

As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the minority interest in subsidiary is offset
by a long-term note receivable of approximately $128,500 due from one of the
West limited partners and demand notes of approximately $23,500 due from the
West general partners.

8. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER

The Partnership had one nonaffiliated customer who provided approximately 13%
and 16% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

9. PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS

Partnership distributions include preferential payments to a partner which are
not guaranteed by the Partnership, as defined in the Partnership agreement.
Preferential distributions paid for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
were $200,000 and $150,000, respectively. Subsequent to year-end, preferential
payments of $100,000 were made to the above partner and additional payments of
approximately $3,532,000 were distributed to all partners.

10. LEASE COMMITMENTS

The Partnership leases certain property and equipment from unaffiliated
companies under various operating leases. The leases expire at various dates
through September 1999. Rent expense charged to operations relating to all
unaffiliated operating leases for the year ended December 31, 1996, was
approximately $675,000.

  The future minimum lease payments are as follows:

<PAGE>
 
12. CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation proceedings resulting
from the conduct of its business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of such matters discussed above will not have a materially adverse
effect on the financial position of the Company.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Effective at the opening of business on April 7, 1997, Cable Design
Technologies, Inc. (CDT) acquired substantially all of the net assets of
Dearborn Wire and Cable L.P.


<PAGE>
 
             PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


The following Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are based on
the historical financial statements of Cable Design Technologies Corporation
(the "Company") and of Dearborn Wire and Cable L.P. and Subsidiaries
("Dearborn"), adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Dearborn by the
Company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year
ended July 31, 1996, and the six months ended January 31, 1997, assume that such
event had occurred on August 1, 1995.  The unaudited pro forma condensed balance
sheet gives effect to the acquisition of Dearborn by the Company as if the event
had occurred on January 31, 1997.

The pro forma financial information reflects the purchase method of accounting
for the acquisition of Dearborn and, accordingly, is based on estimated purchase
accounting adjustments that are subject to further revision upon completion of
any appraisals or other studies of the fair value of Dearborn's assets and
liabilities.  Final purchase accounting adjustments will differ from the pro
forma adjustments presented herein and described in the accompanying notes due
to the results of operation of Dearborn from December 31, 1996, to the date of
the closing, April 7, 1997.

The pro forma financial information does not purport to present what the
Company's results of operations would actually have been if the acquisition of
Dearborn had occurred on the assumed dates, as specified above, or to project
the Company's financial condition or results of operations for any future
period.

The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company
and the related notes thereto which are included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended July 31, 1996, the Company's Current
Report on Form 8-K dated April 22, 1997, (each as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission) and the audited financial statements of Dearborn that are
filed herewith as item 7(a).
