RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Net Sales.  Third quarter net sales increased $59.1 million, or 63.2%,
from $93.6 million in the third quarter of 1999 to $152.7 million in the third
quarter of 2000.  Total net sales for the first three quarters of 2000
increased $164.5 million, or 65.3% from $252.0 million in the first three
quarters of 1999 to $416.5 million in the first three quarters of 1999.

    Electronic Component Distribution ("ECD") third quarter net sales
increased $40.2 million, or 76.1%, from $52.9 million in the third quarter of
1999 to $93.1 million in the third quarter of 2000.  This increase resulted
primarily from improved market conditions for the sale of electronic
components in the United States.  Additionally, we have made significant
investments in personnel and other infrastructure, which has aided in sales
volume growth. Sales of semiconductors, passive components and
electromechanical components accounted for 67.0%, 24.3% and 8.7%,
respectively, of third quarter 2000 ECD net sales compared to 72.0%, 19.2% and
8.8%, respectively, of third quarter 1999 ECD net sales.  Sales generated from
the top four ECD vendors accounted for approximately $40.0 million, or 43.0%
of third quarter 2000 ECD net sales, as compared with approximately $18.4
million or 34.8% of third quarter 1999 ECD net sales.

    ECD net sales increased $112.4 million, or 82.3%, from $136.6 million in
the first three quarters of 1999 to $249.0 million in the first three quarters
of 2000.  This increase was primarily the result of the factors stated above.
Sales of semiconductors, passive components and electromechanical components
accounted for 65.9%, 25.8% and 8.3%, respectively, of first three quarters
2000 ECD net sales, compared to 72.3%, 19.8% and 7.9%, respectively, of first
three quarters 1999 ECD net sales.  Sales generated from the top four ECD
vendors accounted for approximately $103.0 million, or 41.4% of first three
quarters 2000 ECD net sales, as compared with approximately $45.6 million or
33.4% of first three quarters 1999 ECD net sales

    Electronic Manufacturing Services ("EMS") net sales increased $18.9
million, or 46.4%, from $40.7 million in the third quarter of 1999 to $59.6
million in the third quarter of 2000.  After adjusting for net sales of
Applied Instruments, Inc. ("Applied"), acquired in October, 1999, third
quarter 2000 net sales increased $14.9 million or 36.5% as compared with third
quarter 1999 net sales.  This increase is primarily attributable to increased
demands from within the existing customer base of EMS.  EMS transacted
business with 87 customers in the third quarter of 2000.  The three largest
EMS customers accounted for approximately 16.5%, 10.5% and 9.7%, respectively,
of third quarter 2000 EMS net sales (6.4%, 4.1% and 3.8%, respectively, of
total Company third quarter 2000 net sales) as compared to 12.9%, 8.4% and
6.8%, respectively, of third quarter 1999 EMS net sales (5.6%, 3.6% and 2.9%,
respectively, of total Company third quarter 1999 net sales).  Sales from the
Hibbing, Minnesota; Tampa, Florida; Gaylord, Michigan and Fremont, California
manufacturing facilities accounted for approximately 36%, 33%, 24% and 7%
respectively, of EMS third quarter 2000 net sales as compared with 49%, 27%,
24% and 0%, respectively, of EMS third quarter 1999 net sales.

    EMS net sales increased $52.2 million, or 45.2%, from $115.4 million in
the first three quarters of 1999 to $167.6 million in the first three quarters
of 2000.  After adjusting for net sales of Applied, net sales for the first
three quarters of 2000 increased $39.7 million, or 34.4% as compared with net
sales from the first three quarters of 1999.  This increase is primarily
attributable to increased demand from within the existing EMS customer base.
EMS transacted business with 105 customers during the first three quarters of
2000.  The three largest EMS customers accounted for approximately 14.7%,
9.3%, and 9.1%, respectively, of first three quarters 2000 EMS net sales
(5.9%, 3.7% and 3.7%, respectively, of total Company first three quarters 2000
net sales) as compared to 7.6%, 7.2% and 6.0%, respectively, of first three
quarters 1999 EMS net sales (3.6%, 3.4% and 2.8%, respectively, of total
Company first three quarters 1999 net sales).  Sales from the Hibbing,
Minnesota; Tampa, Florida; Gaylord, Michigan and Fremont, California
manufacturing facilities accounted for approximately 37%, 32%, 23% and 8%
respectively, of total EMS sales in the first three quarters of 2000 as
compared with 40%, 30%, 30% and 0%, respectively, of total EMS sales in the
first three quarters of 1999.

    Gross Profit.  Total third quarter gross profit increased $11.6 million or
86.3%, from $13.4 million in the third quarter of 1999 to $25.0 million in the
third quarter of 2000.  The gross margin increased from 14.3% in the third
quarter of 1999 to 16.4% in the third quarter of 2000.  Total gross profit
increased $34.0 million, or 98.6%, from $34.4 million in the first three
quarters of 1999 to $68.4 million in the first three quarters of 2000.  The
gross margin increased from 13.6% in the first three quarters of 1999 to 16.4%
in the first three quarters of 2000.

    ECD third quarter gross profit increased $8.0 million, or 93.3%, from $8.7
million in the third quarter of 1999 to $16.7 million in the third quarter of
2000.  ECD gross margin increased from 16.3% in the third quarter of 1999 to
18.0% in the third quarter of 2000. This increase in gross margin is due
primarily to improved selling and pricing practices and stronger electronic
component market conditions experienced in the third quarter of 2000 as
compared with market conditions in the third quarter of 1999.  ECD first three
quarters gross margin increased from 16.6% in the first three quarters of 1999
to 18.6% in the first three quarters of 2000, for similar reasons.

    EMS gross profit increased $3.5 million, or 73.7%, from $4.8 million in
the third quarter of 1999 to $8.3 million in the third quarter of 2000 and its
gross margin increased from 11.7% in the third quarter of 1999 to 13.9% in the
third quarter of 2000.  EMS first three quarters gross profit increased $10.2
million, or 87.4% from $11.8 million in 1999 to $22.0 million in 2000 and its
gross margin increased from 10.2% in the first three quarters of 1999 to 13.2%
in the first three quarters of 2000.  This increase in gross margin is
primarily attributable to the improvements in asset utilization and
manufacturing processes.  Additionally, Applied generated higher gross margins
than the other EMS facilities.

    Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general, and
administrative expenses increased $4.3 million, or 30.6%, from $14.1 million
in the third quarter of 1999 to $18.4 million in the third quarter of 2000.
Third quarter selling, general and administrative expenses of Applied were
approximately $915,000.  After adjusting for the affects of Applied, the $3.4
million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily
attributable to increased variable expenses associated with increased sales
volumes.  These expenses, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 15.1%
in the third quarter of 1999 to 12.1% in the third quarter of 2000.  First
three quarters selling, general and administrative expenses increased $13.0
million or 32.3% from $40.4 million in the first three quarters of 1999 to
$53.4 million in the first three quarters of 2000.  First three quarters 2000
selling, general and administrative expenses of Applied were approximately
$2.7 million.  After adjusting for the affects of Applied, selling, general
and administrative expenses increased $10.3 million or 25.5%.  This increase
is primarily attributable to increased investment in our ECD sales channel
and variable expenses associated with increased sales volumes.  First three
quarters selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales decreased from 16.0% in the first three quarters of 1999 to 12.8% in
the first three quarters of 2000.

    Interest Expense.  Net interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 56.1%,
from $2.0 million in the third quarter of 1999 to $3.1 million in the third
quarter of 2000.  First three quarters net interest expense increased $2.0
million, or 32.4%, from $6.1 million in the first three quarters of 1999 to
$8.1 million in the first three quarters of 2000.  These increases in net
interest expense resulted primarily from an increase in average outstanding
debt of $16.7 million from $122.9 million during the first three quarters of
1999 to $139.6 million during the first three quarters of 2000.  In
addition, our overall average interest rate increased from 6.7% during the
first three quarters of 1999 to 7.8% during the first three quarters of 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    We primarily finance our operations through subordinated notes, bank
credit lines, capital equipment leases, and short-term financing through
supplier credit lines.

    Net cash provided by or used in operating activities has historically been
driven by net income (loss) levels combined with fluctuations in inventory,
accounts receivable and accounts payable.  Operating activities for the first
three quarters of 2000 used cash of approximately $31.8 million.  This
decrease in liquidity resulted primarily from an increase in inventories of
$34.6 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $23.3 million.  These
items were offset by an increase in accounts payable of $13.7 million and an
increase in accrued expenses of $1.0 million.  Days sales in accounts
receivable as of September 30, 2000 were approximately 51 days.  Annualized
inventory turns for the first three quarters of 2000 were 3.9 times.

    Capital expenditures totaled approximately $6.9 million in the first three
quarters of 2000.  These capital expenditures were primarily for the
acquisition of manufacturing equipment and building improvements.  These
purchases were funded by our working capital credit facility.

    We believe that available credit facilities will be sufficient for us to
meet our capital expenditures and working capital needs for our operations as
presently conducted.  However, our future liquidity and cash requirements will
depend on a wide range of factors, including the level of business in existing
operations, expansion of facilities, and possible acquisitions.  While there
can be no assurance that such financing will be available in amounts and on
terms acceptable to us, we believe that such financing would likely be
available on acceptable terms.


Item 3:  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    While we had no holdings of derivative financial or commodity instruments
at September 30, 2000, we are exposed to financial market risks, including
changes in interest rates.  A majority of our borrowings bear a fixed interest
rate.  However, borrowings under our bank Credit Facility bears interest
at a variable rate based on the prime rate or the London Interbank
Offered Rate.
