KELLSTROM INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include
         the accounts of Kellstrom Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the
         "Company") after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.
         These statements have been prepared by the Company without audit,
         pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
         Commission ("SEC"). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
         December 31, 1998 has been derived from audited financial statements.
         In order to prepare the financial statements in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles, management has made a number
         of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets
         and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
         Actual results could differ from those estimates. 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
         of the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be
         read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
         included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

         In the opinion of management of the Company, the condensed consolidated
         financial statements reflect all adjustments (which consist only of
         normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the condensed
         consolidated financial position of Kellstrom Industries, Inc. and its
         subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999, and the condensed consolidated
         results of earnings for the three month periods ended March 31, 1999
         and 1998 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for
         the three month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. The results of
         operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
         the results for the full year.


NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS

         On April 29, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of privately
         held Certified Aircraft Parts, Inc. ("Certified"). Certified is a
         provider of parts, after-market support and logistics for the Lockheed
         Martin C-130/L100 Hercules aircraft and will complement the activities
         of the Company's small engine and military segment, which is involved
         in supplying inventory management for C-130 engines. Kellstrom paid
         approximately $16 million in cash at closing, and assumed approximately
         $2.8 million in debt, financed through its credit facility.

NOTE 4 - SEGMENT REPORTING

         The Company is organized based on the products that it offers. Under
         this organizational structure, the Company has three reportable
         segments: commercial engine, small engine and military and avionics and
         rotables. The commercial engine segment is involved in the business of
         purchasing, overhauling (primarily through subcontractors), reselling
         and leasing of aircraft, and engines and engine parts for large
         turbo-fan engines manufactured by CFM International, General Electric,
         Pratt & Whitney and Rolls Royce. The small engine and military segment
         is an after-market reseller of aircraft parts and turbojet engines and
         engine parts for large transport aircraft and helicopters. The
         segment's primary focus is on the Lockheed Martin C-130 Hercules
         aircraft, a widely used military transport aircraft, the Allison (Rolls
         Royce) T56/501 engine, which powers this aircraft, and the Allison 250,
         with approximately 16,000 units actively in use by helicopters. The
         Company entered the small engine and military segment in 1997 with the
         acquisition of Aero Support USA, Inc. ("Aero Support"). The acquisition
         of Certified on April 29, 1999 enhanced the company's presence in this
         market segment. The avionics and rotables segment is engaged in the
         sale of a wide variety of aircraft rotables and expendable components
         including flight data recorders, electrical and mechanical equipment
         and radar and navigation systems. The Company entered the avionics and
         rotables segment in 1998 with the acquisition of Solair, Inc.
         ("Solair").

         The Company's reportable segments are managed separately because each
         business requires different technology and marketing strategies. The
         Company does not allocate selling, general and administrative expenses,
         depreciation and amortization, interest expense or income taxes to its
         business segments. Rather, the Company evaluates performance of the
         business segments based on revenue and gross margins. The accounting
         policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary
         of significant accounting policies. The following table sets forth the
         revenue and margins for each of the Company's business segments for the
         three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:

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

         The following should be read in conjunction with the Kellstrom
Industries, Inc. (the "Company") unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere herein. In addition,
reference should be made to the Company's audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto and related Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company's most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

         This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains or may contain certain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. The words "estimate," "project," "intend,"
"expect," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated in such forward-looking statements, including those described
below. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

GENERAL

         The Company is a leader in the airborne equipment segments of the
international aviation services after-market. The Company's principal business
is the purchasing, overhauling (primarily through subcontractors), reselling and
leasing of aircraft, avionics and aircraft rotables, and engines and engine
parts. The Company's historical growth has resulted from a number of factors,
including the expansion of the Company's product lines, customer base and market
share, increases in the Company's internal growth, cost controls and overall
operating efficiencies, acquisitions in existing and adjacent markets and
significant capital investments.

         On April 1, 1998, June 17, 1998 and December 31, 1998 the Company
acquired Integrated Technology Corporation ("ITC"), Aerocar Aviation Corp.
("Aerocar Aviation") and Aerocar Parts, Inc. ("Aerocar Parts", and together with
Aerocar Aviation, "Aerocar") and Solair, respectively. These acquisitions were
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations
and accordingly, those companies' operating results have been included in the
Company's results of operations since the date of acquisition. Consequently, the
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 are not
comparable to the corresponding period of the prior year in certain material
respects.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the
percentage of certain income statement items to total revenues derived from the
Company's condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998

         Net sales of aircraft and engine parts increased by 171% to $68.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $25.3 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in net sales of aircraft
and engine parts was primarily due to (i) growth of sales of approximately $29.0
million due to additional inventory availability as a result of the Company's
increased capital resources as well as the acquisitions of ITC and Aerocar being
combined into Kellstrom, and (ii) incremental sales of approximately $14.4
million related to the acquisition of Solair.

         Rental revenues increased by 175% to $10.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1998. The increase in rental revenues was primarily due to the
Company's continued expansion into the leasing business through purchases of
individual assets as well as the acquisitions of ITC and Aerocar being combined
into Kellstrom.

         Cost of goods sold increased by 184% to $47.4 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $16.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1998; the gross profit margin decreased to 31.0% in 1999 from
34.2% in 1998. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily due to increased
sales volume across all product lines. The decrease in the gross profit margin
was primarily due to expected lower margins from the Solair division.

         Depreciation of equipment under operating leases increased by 208% to
$6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $2.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in depreciation
of equipment under operating leases was primarily due to the Company's continued
expansion into the leasing business through purchases of individual assets as
well as the acquisitions of ITC and Aerocar being combined into Kellstrom.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 147% to $8.5
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $3.4 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1998; however, as a percentage of total
revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 10.7% in
1999 from 11.8% in 1998. The increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses was primarily due to (i) the acquisitions of ITC, Aerocar and Solair
being combined into Kellstrom and (ii) the continued expansion of the Company's
sales and warehouse operations to support a higher level of revenue and a
corresponding greater number of whole engine and engine component transactions.
This expansion has resulted in the continued addition of marketing and
management personnel necessary to achieve and administer the revenue growth
opportunities that are available due to the Company's expanded level of
inventory investment as well as the acquisitions of ITC, Aerocar and Solair.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues
decreased during 1999 primarily due to economies of scale and operating
efficiencies derived from the consolidation of operations related to completed
acquisitions. The Company expects selling, general and



                                       11
<PAGE>   12


administrative expenses to continue to increase due to the Company's growth
plans and need for additional personnel and facilities to support the Company's
operations.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 103% to $1.2 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $0.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998; however, as a percentage of total revenues,
depreciation and amortization expense decreased to 1.5% in 1999 from 2.0% in
1998. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to
amortization of goodwill related to the ITC, Aerocar and Solair acquisitions.

         Interest expense (net of interest income) increased by 154% to $4.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $1.6 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in interest expense was
primarily driven by an increase in the Company's average debt levels during
1999, resulting from the acquisitions of ITC and Solair and growth in
inventories and equipment under operating leases. The Company expects interest
expense to continue to increase as the Company continues to expand its inventory
levels and facilities to support future growth in operations and completes
acquisitions funded by debt. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company's operations will expand or that it will complete any material
acquisitions.

         Net income increased by 143% to $7.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 as compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31,
1998. Basic earnings per common share increased by 69% to $0.61 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $0.36 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998. Diluted earnings per common share increased by 62% to $0.47 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $0.29 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

         As of March 31, 1999, the Company's liquidity and capital resources
included cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 million and working capital of $242.4
million. At March 31, 1999, total outstanding debt was $251.2 million as
compared to $239.9 million as of December 31, 1998. As of March 31, 1999, the
outstanding principal balance on the Company's convertible subordinated notes
was $140.3 million and the Company had contractual lines of credit totaling
$256.7 million of which $95.3 million was outstanding and $52.7 million was
available.

         Cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 was $4.5 million compared with $38.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The primary uses of cash for operating activities during
the three months ended March 31, 1999 was due to increases in inventories and
equipment under operating leases of $7.0 million and $15.6 million,
respectively, and an increase in accounts receivable of $6.1 million. The
primary sources of cash for operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 was due to net income of $7.1 million, coupled with total
depreciation and amortization of $7.5 million and increases in accounts payable
and income taxes payable of $7.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

         Cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 was $6.6 million compared with $0.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The primary uses of cash for investing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 was related to earnout payments in connection
with the acquisitions of Aero Support and ITC of $4.9 million in the aggregate
and purchases of property, plant and equipment for $1.7 million.

         Cash flows provided by financing activities for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 was $11.1 million compared with $38.8 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998. The primary sources of cash for financing
activities for the three months ended March 31, 1999 related to an increase in
borrowings under line of credit agreements of $11.3 million offset by payment of
deferred financing costs of $0.4 million. The increase in borrowings under line
of credit agreements includes the $6.7 million letter of credit component of the
$256.7 million syndicated credit facility, which was specifically committed to
the permanent financing of the Company's new world headquarters.

         The Company plans to take advantage of growth opportunities that are
consistent with the Company's expansion and profit objectives. These growth
opportunities will require the investment of cash into inventories of aircraft
and aircraft parts, engines and engine parts and avionics and rotables. Greater
availability of such inventories will better enable the Company to continue to
increase its revenues as well as to encourage the development of strategic
relationships with new customers. The Company intends to finance its inventory
expansion program through its syndicated credit


                                       12
<PAGE>   13


facility, and through the employment of its cash flows. In the future, the
Company may require additional sources of capital to continue to fund its
expansion.

         The Company's management believes that free cash flow (net income plus
depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of goodwill),
combined with the Company's syndicated credit facility should be sufficient for
the Company's current level of operations. However, the Company may elect to
seek equity capital or other debt financing in the future depending upon market
conditions and the capital needs of the Company.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

         The Year 2000 problem is primarily the result of computer programs
being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year.
Such programs will be unable to interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which
could cause a system failure or other computer errors, including possible
miscalculations, and a disruption in the operation of such systems. This is
commonly referred to as the Year 2000 issue.

         The Company and each of its operating subsidiaries are executing a plan
to identify and address any possible business issues related to the impact of
the Year 2000 problem on both its information technology ("IT") and non-IT
systems (e.g., embedded technology). This plan addresses the Year 2000 issue in
multiple phases, including (i) determining an initial inventory of the Company's
systems, equipment (including embedded technology in the Company's aircraft,
engine and parts inventory as well as leased equipment), vendors, customers and
third party administrators that may be vulnerable to system failures or
processing errors as a result of Year 2000 issues, (ii) assessment and
prioritization of inventoried items to determine risks associated with their
failure to be Year 2000 compliant, (iii) testing of systems and equipment to
determine Year 2000 compliance, (iv) remediation and implementation of systems
and equipment, and (v) contingency planning to assess reasonably likely
worst-case scenarios. As part of the Company's plan, the Company has retained a
third party Year 2000 solution provider to assist with a risk analysis of the
Company's Year 2000 issue and assist with project office management. For those
systems which the Company determines are not currently Year 2000 compliant,
implementation of the required changes is expected to be completed by September
1999.

         Incremental costs, which include consulting costs and costs associated
with internal resources to modify existing systems in order to achieve Year 2000
compliance are charged to expense as incurred. The Company does not expect the
cost of making the required system changes to exceed $500,000. The anticipated
costs of the project and the dates on which the Company believes it will
complete the Year 2000 modifications and assessments are based on management's
best estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future
events, including the continued availability of certain resources. There can be
no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated. Specific factors that might cause such
material differences include, but are not limited to, the availability and cost
of personnel trained in this area and the ability to locate and correct all
relevant systems.

         With respect to the Company's customers, suppliers and vendors, the
Company is in the process of contacting customers, suppliers and vendors to
assess the potential impact on operations if such third parties are not
successful in ensuring that their systems and operations are Year 2000 compliant
in a timely manner. The Company's Year 2000 issues and any potential business
interruptions, costs, damages or losses related thereto, are also dependent upon
the Year 2000 compliance of other third parties such as governmental agencies
(e.g., Federal Aviation Administration and foreign equivalents). To date, the
Company is unable to determine whether it will be materially affected by the
failure of any of its customers, suppliers, vendors or other third parties to be
Year 2000 compliant. The Company believes that its compliance efforts have and
will reduce the impact on the Company of any such failures. Failure of any third
parties with which the Company interacts to achieve Year 2000 compliance could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.

         Risk assessment, readiness evaluation, action plans and contingency
plans related to the Company's suppliers, vendors and other third parties are
expected to be completed by September 1999. The Company's risk management
program includes emergency backup and recovery procedures to be followed in the
event of failure of a business critical system. These procedures will be
expanded to include specific procedures for the potential Year 2000 issue.
Contingency plans to protect the Company from Year 2000-related interruptions
are also being developed and are expected to be completed by September 1999.
These plans will include development of backup procedures, identification of
alternate suppliers, possible increases in inventory levels and other
appropriate measures.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

         In March 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which became
effective for the Company beginning January 1, 1999. SOP 98-1 outlines the
accounting treatment for certain costs related to the development or purchase of
software to be used internally and requires that costs incurred during the
preliminary project and post-implementation/operation stages be expensed, and
costs incurred during the application development stage be capitalized and
amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Adoption of this
statement did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations
or financial position.

         In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-up Activities." SOP 98-5, which became effective for the Company beginning
January 1, 1999, requires that all costs of start-up activities, including
organization costs, be expensed as incurred. Adoption of this statement did not
have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
position.

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 requires companies to
recognize all derivative contracts as either assets or liabilities in the
balance sheet and to measure them at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Management does not anticipate a
significant impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 133 on the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company's exposure to market risk is limited primarily to the
fluctuating interest rates associated with variable rate indebtedness
outstanding under the Company's $256.7 million bank credit facility. The bank
credit facility, which expires in 2003, bears interest at the bank's prime rate
plus 0-50 basis points or, at the Company's option, LIBOR plus 150-250 basis
points. These variable interest rates are subject to interest rate changes in
the United States and Eurodollar markets. The Company does not currently use,
and has not historically used, derivative financial instruments to hedge against
such market interest rate risk. At March 31, 1999, the Company had approximately
$95.3 million in variable rate indebtedness outstanding under the credit
facility, representing approximately, 38% of the Company's total debt
outstanding, at an average interest rate of 6.95%. An increase in interest rates
by 1% would not have a material impact on the financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.

          PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF EARNINGS - UNAUDITED

          The condensed consolidated statement of earnings of the Company for
          the three months ended March 31, 1999 are the Company's actual
          results, as they reflect the operations of ITC, Aerocar and Solair for
          the entire period being presented. The pro forma condensed
          consolidated statement of earnings of the Company for the three months
          ended March 31, 1998 are based on historical financial statements of
          the Company and have been adjusted to reflect the acquisitions of ITC,
          Aerocar and Solair as though the companies had combined at the
          beginning of the period being reported. Also, the pro forma condensed
          consolidated statement of earnings for the three months ended March
          31, 1998 reflect the effect of the Company's secondary public offering
          of common stock and convertible subordinated notes as though they had
          occurred at the beginning of the period being reported.

          The pro forma condensed consolidated statement of earnings does not
          purport to be indicative of results that would have occurred had the
          acquisition been in effect for the period presented, nor does it
          purport to be indicative of the results that will be obtained in the
          future. The pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is
          based on certain assumptions and adjustments described in the notes
          hereto and should be read in conjunction therewith.
