NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements of PSS World  Medical,  Inc.
("PSS" or the "Company") reflect, in the opinion of management,  all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for
the periods  indicated and give  retroactive  effect to the mergers with Medical
Imaging  Systems,  Inc. ("MIS") and TriStar Imaging  Systems,  Inc.  ("TriStar")
acquired during fiscal 1999 and various acquired companies  previously accounted
for as immaterial  pooling-of-interests  transactions  (the "Pooled  Entities").
These transactions were accounted for under the  pooling-of-interests  method of
accounting,  and accordingly,  the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements have been  retroactively  restated as if PSS, MIS,  TriStar,  and the
Pooled Entities had operated as one entity since inception.

The Company's  previously issued financial  statements  included in Form 10Q for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 were not restated for: (1) the
information  systems  accelerated  depreciation,  (2) the reversal of Gulf South
Medical Supply,  Inc. ("Gulf South")  restructuring  charge, (3) the reversal of
Gulf South  direct  transaction  costs and (4) the  immaterial  Pooled  Entities
(refer to Note 10--Restatements).  In addition, the financial statements for the
three and nine months  ended  December  31, 1997 were not  restated  for:  (1) a
correction of an error in recording  certain  operating  expenses at Gulf South,
and (2) the immaterial Pooled Entities (refer to Note 10--Restatements).

The Company's  fiscal year ends on the Friday  closest to March 31 of each year.
Prior to April 4, 1998,  Gulf  South's  year-end  was December 31. The three and
nine months ended  September 30, 1997 of Gulf South were  consolidated  with the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1997 of the Company. In addition,  Gulf
South's balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 was consolidated with PSS' balance
sheet as of April 3, 1998. Effective April 4, 1998, Gulf South's fiscal year-end
was changed to conform to the Company's year-end.  As such, Gulf South's results
of operations  for the period  January 1, 1998 to April 3, 1998 are not included
in any of the  periods  presented  in the  accompanying  condensed  consolidated
statements of income.  Accordingly,  Gulf South's  results of operations for the
three months ended April 3, 1998 are reflected as an adjustment to shareholders'
equity of the  Company as of April 4, 1998.  Refer to the  section  titled  Gulf
South's Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 3, 1998 and March
31,  1997  included  in  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Results of
Operations for further clarification.  The Company's three and nine months ended
December  31,  1998  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  include the
combined results of operations for the period from April 4, 1998 to December 31,
1998, of both PSS and Gulf South.  The following table provides a rollforward of
retained earnings from April 3, 1998 to December 31, 1998:

The accompanying  condensed  consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and related notes in the Company's
1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial  statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting  principles have been omitted pursuant to the Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and regulations.

Financial  statements for the Company's subsidiary outside the United States are
translated  into U.S.  dollars  at  quarter-end  exchange  rates for  assets and
liabilities  and weighted  average  exchange rates for income and expenses.  The
resulting translation adjustments are recorded in the other comprehensive income
component of shareholders' equity.

The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this report may not
necessarily be indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year. Certain
items have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.


NOTE 2--BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Pooling-of-Interests Transaction

During the three months ended December 31, 1998, the Company merged with TriStar
Imaging Systems, Inc.  ("TriStar"),  an imaging supply and equipment distributor
with aggregate  annual  revenues of  approximately  $40.0  million,  in a merger
accounted  for  under  the  pooling-of-interests   method.  The  Company  issued
approximately  294,000  shares  of PSS  common  stock in  connection  with  this
pooling. The accompanying  condensed consolidated financial statements have been
retroactively  restated as if PSS and TriStar had  operated as one entity  since
inception.

assets and  assumed  certain  liabilities  of two imaging  supply and  equipment

distributors. A summary of the details of the transactions follows:

The  operations  of the acquired  companies  have been included in the Company's
results of operations  subsequent to the dates of acquisition.  Supplemental pro
forma information, assuming these acquisitions had been made at the beginning of
the year, is not provided, as the results would not be materially different from
the Company's reported results of operations.

These  acquisitions  were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
and  accordingly,  the assets of the acquired  companies  have been  recorded at
their estimated fair values at the dates of the  acquisitions.  The value of the
common stock issued in connection with these  purchases is generally  determined
based on an average  market price of the shares over a ten-day  period  before a
definitive  agreement is signed and the proposed  transaction is announced.  The
excess of the  purchase  price over the  estimated  fair value of the net assets
acquired has been recorded as goodwill and is amortized over 30 years.

The  accompanying   condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  reflect  the
preliminary  allocation of the purchase  price.  The  allocation of the purchase
price,  performed  using  values and  estimates  available as of the date of the
financial  statements,  has not been  finalized  due to certain  pre-acquisition
contingencies identified by the Company and the nature of the estimates required
in the  establishment of the Company's merger  integration  plans.  Accordingly,
goodwill  associated with these  acquisitions may increase or decrease in fiscal
1999.

In addition, the terms of certain of the Company's recent acquisition agreements
provide for additional consideration to be paid if the acquired entity's results
of operations exceed certain targeted levels.  Targeted levels are generally set
above  the  historical  experience  of  the  acquired  entity  at  the  time  of
acquisition.  Such additional consideration is to be paid in cash or with shares
of the Company's common stock and is recorded when earned as additional purchase
price. The maximum amount of remaining contingent consideration is approximately
$5.9 million (payable through fiscal 2001). The first potential earn-out payment
is effective in fiscal 2000.

During the three months ended  December 31, 1998 and 1997, no  adjustments  were
made to goodwill.

Merger Costs and Expenses

The Company's  policy is to accrue  merger costs and expenses at the  commitment
date of an  integration  plan if certain  criteria  under  EITF 94-3,  Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity ("EITF 94-3") or 95-14, Recognition of Liabilities in Anticipation of a
Business Combination ("EITF 95-14"), are met. Merger costs and expenses recorded
at the  commitment  date  primarily  include  charges for  involuntary  employee
termination  costs,  branch shut-down costs,  lease termination costs, and other
exit costs.

  NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Restated)--(Continued)
                                   (Unaudited)

If the  criteria  described  in EITF 94-3 or EITF 95-14 are not met, the Company
records merger costs and expenses as incurred. Merger costs expensed as incurred
include the following: (1) costs to pack and move inventory from one facility to
another or within a facility in a  consolidation  of facilities,  (2) relocation
costs paid to employees in relation to an  acquisition  accounted  for under the
pooling-of-interests  method of  accounting,  (3) systems or  training  costs to
convert the acquired companies to the current existing  information  system, (4)
training costs related to conforming the acquired companies operational policies
to that of the Company's operational policies,  and (5) direct transaction costs
primarily consisting of investment banking, legal,  accounting,  and filing fees
related to mergers with the Company. In addition,  amounts incurred in excess of
the original amount accrued at the commitment date are expensed as incurred.

Merger costs and  expenses for the three months ended  December 31, 1998 include
$136 of charges for merger costs expensed as incurred,  which primarily  related
to direct  transaction  costs from the merger with  TriStar.  In  addition,  the
Company reversed $152 of merger costs and expenses into income, which related to
deferred compensation forfeited by terminated employees in relation to mergers.

During the three months ended December 31, 1997, the Company  recorded $1,677 of
merger costs related to  integration  plans  adopted by  management  and $434 of
direct  transaction  costs expensed as incurred.  In addition,  merger costs and
expenses  include amounts  incurred in excess of the original amounts accrued at
commitment dates. Such costs include involuntary  employee termination costs and
branch shut-down costs of $1,201 and $498, respectively.

Restructuring Costs and Expenses

Restructuring  costs and expenses  for the three months ended  December 31, 1998
include $103 of charges for training  costs related to  conforming  the acquired
companies operation policies to that of the Company's operational policies.  The
remaining  $395 of  restructuring  costs and  expenses  recorded are charges for
other exit costs  expensed as incurred.  Other exit costs  include costs to pack
and move inventory,  costs to set up new facilities,  employee relocation costs,
and other related facility closure costs.

Information Systems Accelerated Depreciation

In  connection  with  the Gulf  South  merger  during  fiscal  1998,  management
evaluated  the  adequacy of the combined  companies'  information  systems.  The
Company concluded that its existing information systems were not compatible with
those of Gulf South's and not adequate to support the future  internal growth of
the combined companies and expected growth resulting from future acquisitions.

Pursuant to  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 121,
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of, the Company  evaluated  the  recoverability  of the  information
system assets. Based on the Company's analysis,  impairment did not exist at the
division level;  therefore,  management  reviewed the depreciation  estimates in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 20, Accounting Changes.

Effective  April 4, 1998,  the  estimated  useful lives of the PSS, DI, and GSMS
division  information systems were revised to a range of 12 to 15 months,  which
was the  original  estimate  of when  the new  systems  implementation  would be
completed. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998, the $1,814 and
$4,323  of  charges,   respectively,   represent  the   incremental   impact  on
depreciation  expense  resulting  from  management's  decision  to  replace  its
information systems.

Gulf South Operational Tax Charge

The  Company,  in  connection  with the  filing  of its  fiscal  1998  financial
statements,  restated  for  certain  operational  tax  compliance  issues in the
financial  statements  of Gulf South for the year ended  December 31,  1997.  As
such,  Gulf South  recorded  operational  charges of $767 and $2,310  during the
three months and nine months ended  December 31, 1997,  respectively,  primarily
related to state and local,  sales and use, and property taxes that are normally
charged directly to the customer at no cost to the Company. Interest is included
in the  above  charges  as Gulf  South  did not  timely  remit  payments  to tax
authorities.  The Company  reviewed all  available  information,  including  tax
exemption notices received,  and recorded charges to expense,  during the period
in which the tax noncompliance issues arose.

Other Charges

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998,  the Company  incurred
approximately $1,005 of costs related to acquisitions not consummated.


NOTE 4--ACCRUED MERGER AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Summary of Accrued Merger Costs and Expenses

In connection with the consummation of business  combinations,  management often
develops  formal  plans  to exit  certain  activities,  involuntarily  terminate
employees, and relocate employees of the acquired companies.  Management's plans
to exit an activity  often include  identification  of duplicate  facilities for
closure  and   identification  of  facilities  for   consolidation   into  other
facilities.

Generally,  completion of the integration  plans will occur within one year from
the date in which the plans were formalized and adopted by management.  However,
intervening events occurring prior to completion of the plan, such as subsequent
acquisitions or system conversion issues,  can significantly  impact a plan that
had been previously established. Such intervening events may cause modifications
to the plans and are accounted for on a  prospective  basis.  At the end of each
quarter,  management  reevaluates  its  integration  plans and adjusts  previous
estimates.

As part of the  integration  plans,  certain costs are recognized at the date in
which the plan is formalized and adopted by management  (commitment date). These
costs are  generally  related to employee  terminations  and  relocation,  lease
terminations,  and branch shutdown. In addition, there are certain costs that do
not meet the criteria for accrual at the commitment date and are expensed as the
plan  is  implemented  (refer  to  Note  3--Charges   Included  in  General  and
Administrative  Expenses).  Involuntary  employee termination costs are employee
severance  costs and termination  benefits.  Lease  termination  costs are lease
cancellation  fees and forfeited  deposits.  Branch shutdown costs include costs
related to facility closure costs. Employee relocation costs are moving costs of
employees  of an  acquired  company  in  transactions  accounted  for  under the
purchase method of accounting.

Accrued  merger  costs and  expenses,  classified  as  accrued  expenses  in the
accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets,  were $1,312 and $4,327, at December
31, 1998 and April 3, 1998, respectively.  The discussion and rollforward of the
accrued  merger  costs  and  expenses  below   summarize  the   significant  and
nonsignificant integration plans adopted by management for business combinations
accounted for under the purchase  method of accounting and  pooling-of-interests
method of accounting.  Integration plans are considered to be significant if the
charge  recorded to  establish  the  accrual is in excess of 5% of  consolidated
pretax income.

integrate the operations of S&W with the Imaging Business. The following accrued
merger costs and  expenses  were  recognized  in the  accompanying  consolidated
statements  of  operations  at the  commitment  date.  A summary  of the  merger
activity related to the S&W merger is as follows:

</TABLE>

Involuntary employee termination costs are costs for seven employees,  including
severance and benefits,  who represent  duplicative functions in the accounting,
purchasing,  human resource, and computer support departments at locations where
facilities were combined into existing facilities.  As of December 31, 1998, one
employee has been  terminated  and the remaining four employees are estimated to
be  terminated  by the end of the  third  quarter  of  fiscal  2000.  Management
identified seven  distribution  facilities to be closed and all operations would
be  ceased  due  to  duplicative  functions.   Three  of  the  seven  identified
distribution  facilities  had been  shut down by  December  31,  1998,  with the
remaining  four  locations  estimated  to be shut down by the second  quarter of
fiscal 2000.  Included in branch shutdown costs are costs related to contractual
obligations  that  existed  prior to the merger date but will provide no ongoing
value to the Company.

The Imaging  Business  acquired MIS in June 1998, and management  formalized and
adopted an  integration  plan in June 1998 to integrate  the  operations  of the
acquired  company.  Approximately  $68 of accrued  merger  costs and expenses at
December  31,  1998  relate  to  this  integration  plan.  Involuntary  employee
termination costs are costs for six employees, including severance and benefits,
who represent duplicative functions in the accounting,  purchasing, and computer
support  departments at the acquired company's  corporate office. As of December
31,  1998,  one  employee  had  been  terminated.   Management   identified  one
distribution  facility to be closed in which all operations  would be ceased due
to duplicative functions.  The Company expects closure of this facility to occur
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

</TABLE>


The  Company  identified  nine  distribution  facilities  to be  closed  and all
operations would be ceased due to duplicative functions. As of December 31, 1998
all facilities  have been closed and operations  have ceased.  Relocation  costs
were recorded related to the transfer of  approximately 15 GXI employees.  As of
December  31,  1998,  all  employees  were   relocated.   Involuntary   employee
termination costs are costs for 19 employees,  including severance and benefits,
who represent duplicative functions as service and operations leaders,  customer
service representatives,  and accounting personnel at locations where facilities
would be combined.  As of December 31, 1998, six employees have been  terminated
and the  remaining 13 employees  are  estimated to be  terminated  by the end of
fiscal 1999, with additional costs and expenses expensed as incurred.

Certain  intervening  events  occurred  that  modified the  execution of the GXI
integration plan. Due to growth from a subsequent acquisition and improvement in
the operating results for a distribution  facility  previously  identified to be
closed, certain merger accruals were not utilized.  Therefore, an adjustment was
recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 1999 to reverse $1,125 of excessive
accruals against goodwill.

The  additions  from the Gulf South  subsidiary  represent  the additions of the
accrued  merger  costs and  expenses  recorded  by Gulf South  during the period
January 1 to April 3, 1998.  No amounts were utilized  during this period.  Gulf
South  formalized and adopted an integration plan during the period January 1 to
April 3, 1998.  Approximately $413 of the $496 accrued merger costs and expenses
at December  31,  1998 relate to this  integration  plan.  Involuntary  employee
termination costs are costs for 23 employees,  including severance and benefits,
who  represent  duplicative  functions  in  the  accounting,  purchasing,  human
resource,   warehouse  and  computer  support  departments  at  locations  where
facilities were combined into existing  facilities.  As of December 31, 1998, 17
employees  have  been   terminated.   Management   identified  two  distribution
facilities  to be  closed  in  which  all  operations  would  be  ceased  due to
duplicative  functions,  both of which had been shut down by December  31, 1998.
Included in branch  shutdown costs are costs related to contractual  obligations
that existed  prior to the merger date but will provide no ongoing  value to the
Company.

The  Imaging  Business  acquired  a company  in  September  1998 and  management
formalized  and  adopted  an  integration  plan  during the three  months  ended
September  30,  1998  to  integrate  the  operations  of the  acquired  company.
Approximately  $83 of the $496 accrued merger costs and expenses at December 31,
1998 relate to this  integration  plan.  Relocation costs are for four employees
all of whom have been relocated as of December 31, 1998.  Management  identified
five  distribution  facilities  to be closed in which  all  operations  would be
ceased  due to  duplicative  functions,  none of  which  had been  shut  down by
December  31,  1998.  Included  in branch  shutdown  costs are costs  related to
contractual  obligations  that existed prior to the merger date but will provide
no ongoing value to the Company.  Management  anticipates  this integration plan
will be completed during fiscal 2000; however,  lease termination  payments will
extend through fiscal 2003.

Summary of Accrued Restructuring Costs and Expenses

Primarily  as a result  of the  impact  of the Gulf  South  merger,  in order to
improve  customer  service,  reduce costs,  and improve  productivity  and asset
utilization,  the Company  decided to realign and  consolidate  its  operations.
Accordingly,  the Company began  implementing  a  restructuring  plan during the
fourth  quarter  of  fiscal  1998  which  impacted  all  divisions  ("Plan  A").
Subsequently,  the Company adopted a second  restructuring plan during the three
months  ended June 30,  1998  related to the Gulf South  division  ("Plan B") to
further consolidate its operations.

The Company recorded a total accrual of $7,972 related to Plan A.  Approximately
$3,691 of the $7,972  total  restructuring  charge was related to the PSS and DI
divisions  and  was  recorded  in the  accompanying  consolidated  statement  of
operations  for the fiscal 1998.  The  additions  from the Gulf South  represent
restructuring  costs and  expenses of $4,281  recorded by Gulf South  during the
unconsolidated  period  January 1 to April 3,  1998.  No amounts  were  utilized
during this period. This charge is not included in the accompanying consolidated
statements  of  operations;  rather  it is  included  in the  retained  earnings
adjustment  recorded on April 4, 1998.  Refer to Note 1, Basis of  Presentation,
for a  discussion  regarding  the  different  year-ends  of Gulf  South  and the
Company.

Accrued restructuring costs and expenses,  classified as accrued expenses in the
accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets,  were $5,039 and $3,691, at December
31, 1998 and April 3, 1998,  respectively.  A summary of the restructuring  plan
activity is as follows:

Plan A

Restructuring  Plan A impacted all divisions,  and involved merging 18 locations
into existing  locations and  eliminating  overlapping  regional  operations and
management  functions.  As of December 31, 1998,  17 locations  were merged into
existing locations.  The plan also included the termination of approximately 270
employees from operations,  administration,  and management.  As of December 31,
1998, 192 employees were terminated as a result

of the plan.  Furthermore,  branch shutdown costs include the costs to implement
Best  Practice  Warehousing  at the Gulf  South  division  in  order to  provide
efficient,  consistent,  standard service to Gulf South customers similar to the
Company's established  standards.  Best Practice Warehousing involves removal of
all products, tearing down racking,  rebuilding racking, and relocating bins and
products within the warehouse to achieve greater  efficiencies in order filling.
Costs were estimated based upon the size of the warehouses.

Plan B

During the first quarter of fiscal 1999,  the Company  established an additional
accrual of $1,503  related to Plan B.  Restructuring  Plan B related only to the
Gulf South division, and involved merging six additional locations into existing
locations.  As a result of the consolidation of the duplicate facilities,  lease
termination  costs will be incurred  through  fiscal 2000. At December 31, 1998,
three of the six  locations  had been  shut  down.  The plan also  included  the
termination of three employees from  operations and  management.  As of December
31, 1998, no employees were terminated as a result of the plan.

NOTE 8--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Gulf South and  certain  of its  former  officers  and  directors  were named as
defendants in two purported class action lawsuits filed on July 21, 1997 related
to disclosures  made in the prospectus  issued by Gulf South in connection  with
its public  offering of common stock during 1996. The Company  believes that the
allegations  contained in the complaints are without merit and intends to defend
vigorously  against the claims.  However,  there can be no  assurance  that this
litigation  will  ultimately  be  resolved  on terms that are  favorable  to the
Company.

In May 1998, the Company and certain of its present  directors and officers were
named as defendants in a purported  securities  class action lawsuit  related to
alleged damages  suffered by purchasers of the Company's common stock during the
period from December 23, 1997 to May 8, 1998.  The claimant seeks an unspecified
amount of damages,  including  costs and  expenses.  The Company  believes  this
lawsuit is without  merit and intends to defend it  vigorously.  The  Defendants
filed their motion to dismiss on January 25, 1999.  However,  this lawsuit is in
its early  stages  and  there can be no  assurances  that this  litigation  will
ultimately be resolved on terms that are favorable to the Company.

The Company is named as a defendant in a purported patent infringement claim. In
this lawsuit,  the claimant  alleges that the urinalysis test strips sold by the
Company under the Penny Saver(TM) label infringe certain patents. The Company is
contesting the claim of infringement  and has obtained a written  agreement from
the  manufacturer  of the  product  indemnifying  the  Company  for the costs of
defense of the suit and for the underlying liability.  In addition,  the Company
has indemnity  rights against the U.S. a distributor of the product  pursuant to
its vendor  agreement.  The parties are  currently in  settlement  negotiations,
however,  the Company believes that there will be a favorable  settlement within
the next 45 days.

Although the Company does not manufacture products,  the distribution of medical
supplies and equipment entails inherent risks of product liability.  The Company
has not  experienced  any  significant  product  liability  claims and maintains
product  liability  insurance  coverage.  In  addition,  the Company is party to
various legal and  administrative  proceedings  and claims arising in the normal
course of business.

While any litigation  contains an element of  uncertainty,  management  believes
that the outcome of any  proceedings  or claims which are pending or known to be
threatened will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.


NOTE 9---SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to December 31, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets,  including
accounts receivable, inventories, and equipment of a long-term care distributor,
the common stock of an imaging supply and equipment distributor,  and the common
stock of a long-term care  distributor.  These  transactions  were accounted for
under  the  purchase  method of  accounting.  A summary  of the  details  of the
transactions follows:

Number of acquisitions..................................             3
Total Consideration.....................................       $15,484
Cash paid...............................................         8,588
Goodwill recorded.......................................         6,352
Value of Noncompete payments............................           623


On February 11, 1999, the Company entered into a $140.0 million senior revolving
credit  facility with a syndicate of financial  institutions  with  NationsBank,
N.A. as principal agent.  Borrowings under the credit facility are available for
working capital, capital expenditures,  and acquisitions, and are secured by the
common stock and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The credit facility
expires February 10, 2004 and borrowings bear interest at certain floating rates
selected by the Company at the time of borrowing.  The credit facility  contains
certain  affirmative  and negative  covenants,  the most  restrictive  of which,
require  maintenance  of a maximum  leverage  ratio of 3.5 to 1,  maintenance of
consolidated  net worth of $337.0  million,  and  maintenance of a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio of 2.0 to 1. In addition,  the covenants limit  additional
indebtedness  and  asset  dispositions,  require  majority  lender  approval  on
acquisitions  with a total  purchase  price  greater  than  $75.0  million,  and
restrict payments of dividends.


NOTE 10--RESTATEMENTS

The Company has  restated its  historical  financial  statements  to include the
effect of certain items as discussed below. The effect of the restatements is as

Information Systems Accelerated Depreciation

The $1,107 and the  $2,641  represent  the  incremental  impact on  depreciation
expense,  net of tax,  for the three and nine months  ended  December  31, 1998,
respectively,  related to the replacement of the information  systems.  Refer to
Note 3--Charges  Included in General and  Administrative  Expenses for a further
discussion regarding the accelerated depreciation.

Gulf South Direct Transaction Costs

Direct  transaction  costs  primarily  consist  of  professional  fees,  such as
investment  banking,  legal, and accounting,  for services  rendered through the
date of the merger.  Due to subsequent  negotiations and agreements  between the
Company  and its  service  provider,  actual  costs  paid were  less than  costs
originally billed and recorded. As a result,  approximately $475, net of tax, of
costs were reversed against general and administrative  expenses during the nine
months ended December 31, 1998. Refer to Note 3--Charges Included in General and
Administrative  Expenses for further  discussion  regarding  direct  transaction
costs.

Operating Expenses

During the three and nine months ended  December 31,  1997,  Gulf South  charged
certain  operating  expenses  to an  accrual  for merger  integration  costs and
expenses that were  established as a component of goodwill as of the date of the
acquisition. The Company determined that the operating expenses should have been
expensed as incurred and included in the accompanying consolidated statements of
income. As a result,  Gulf South restated its condensed  consolidated  financial
statements  to include the effects of recording  operating  expenses as incurred
and properly stating goodwill and accrued merger costs and expenses.

Gulf South Restructuring Plan B

Gulf South previously recorded $918 million,  net of tax, of restructuring costs
and expenses during the period January 1, 1998 to April 3, 1998 and,  therefore,
the amount was included in the retained earnings adjustment recorded on April 4,
1998. However,  the Company's condensed  consolidated  financial statements have
been restated to reverse the $918 million charge as certain recognition criteria
were not met. The charge was  recognized  when the criteria were met,  which was
during the three months ended June 30, 1998.

Immaterial Poolings

The Company  merged with certain  imaging supply and equipment  distributors  in
stock mergers accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
Due to the  immaterial  effect  of  these  acquisitions  on prior  periods,  the
Company's  previously issued financial  statements included in Form 10-Q for the
three  and nine  months  ended  December  31,  1998  were not  restated  for the
immaterial Pooled Entities.  During fiscal 1999, the Company made two additional
individually  immaterial acquisitions accounted for as poolings of interests. As
such, the Company evaluated the aggregate impact of the individually  immaterial
pooling of interest  transactions  on the  Company's  current  and prior  period
financial statements and concluded that the aggregate impact was material to the
Company's  consolidated  financial  position taken as a whole. As a result,  the
Company's  consolidated  financial  statements have been restated to include the
historical financial results of the individually immaterial  pooling-of-interest
transactions for all periods.

Other Charges

During  the  three  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  the  Company   incurred
approximately $1,005 of costs related to acquisitions not consummated.

According to industry estimates,  the United States medical supply and equipment

imaging  centers,   physician  offices,   dental  offices,  and  long-term  care
facilities.  The Company's primary focus includes  distribution to the physician
office,  providers of imaging services, and long-term care facilities comprising
approximately $14 billion or approximately 40% of the overall market

Revenues of the medical  products  distribution  industry  are  estimated  to be
growing as a result of a growing  and aging  population,  increased  health care
awareness,  proliferation  of medical  technology  and  testing,  and  expanding
third-party insurance coverage. In addition,  the physician market is benefiting
from the shift of procedures and diagnostic  testing from hospitals to alternate
sites, particularly physician offices despite a migration of significantly lower
hospital medical product pricing into the physician office market.

The  health  care  industry  is  subject  to  extensive  government  regulation,
licensure,  and operating  procedures.  National health care reform has been the
subject  of a  number  of  legislative  initiatives  by  Congress.  Such  reform
proposals if adopted could impact the medical  products  distribution  industry.
Additionally,  the cost of a  significant  portion of medical care in the United
States is funded by government and private insurance programs.  In recent years,
government-imposed   limits  on  reimbursement  of  hospitals,   long-term  care
facilities,  and other health care providers have impacted  spending  budgets in
certain markets within the medical  products  industry.  Recently,  Congress has
passed  radical  changes  to  reimbursements  for  nursing  homes  and home care
providers.  These  changes also effect some  distributors  who directly bill the
government for these providers.

Over the past few years,  the health care  industry  has  undergone  significant
consolidation.  Physician provider groups, long-term care facilities,  and other
alternate-site  providers  along with the  hospitals  continue  to  consolidate.
Consolidation  sometimes  shifts the  medical  products  purchasing  decision to
individuals  with  whom  medical  products  distributors  had no  prior  selling
relationship.  Additionally,  the consolidation  creates larger  customers.  The
majority of the market  serviced by the  Company  consists of a large  number of
small  customers  with no  individual  customer  exceeding  more than 10% of the
consolidated Company's revenues. However, the Long-Term Care Business depends on
a limited number of large  customers for a significant  portion of its net sales
and  approximately  37% and 38% of the Long-Term Care Business  revenues for the
twelve  months ended April 3, 1998 and the nine months ended  December 31, 1998,
respectively,  represented  sales  to its  top  five  customers.  Growth  in the
Long-Term Care Business as well as consolidation of the health care industry may
increase the Company's dependence on large customers.

                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements of PSS World  Medical,  Inc.
("PSS" or the "Company") reflect, in the opinion of management,  all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for
the periods  indicated and give  retroactive  effect to the mergers with Medical
Imaging  Systems,  Inc. ("MIS") and TriStar Imaging  Systems,  Inc.  ("TriStar")
acquired during fiscal 1999 and various acquired companies  previously accounted
for as immaterial  pooling-of-interests  transactions  (the "Pooled  Entities").
These transactions were accounted for under the  pooling-of-interests  method of
accounting,  and accordingly,  the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements have been  retroactively  restated as if PSS, MIS,  TriStar,  and the
Pooled Entities had operated as one entity since inception.

The Company's  previously issued financial  statements  included in Form 10Q for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 were not restated for: (1) the
information  systems  accelerated  depreciation,  (2) the reversal of Gulf South
Medical Supply,  Inc. ("Gulf South")  restructuring  charge, (3) the reversal of
Gulf South  direct  transaction  costs and (4) the  immaterial  Pooled  Entities
(refer to Note 10--Restatements).  In addition, the financial statements for the
three and nine months  ended  December  31, 1997 were not  restated  for:  (1) a
correction of an error in recording  certain  operating  expenses at Gulf South,
and (2) the immaterial Pooled Entities (refer to Note 10--Restatements).

The Company's  fiscal year ends on the Friday  closest to March 31 of each year.
Prior to April 4, 1998,  Gulf  South's  year-end  was December 31. The three and
nine months ended  September 30, 1997 of Gulf South were  consolidated  with the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1997 of the Company. In addition,  Gulf
South's balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 was consolidated with PSS' balance
sheet as of April 3, 1998. Effective April 4, 1998, Gulf South's fiscal year-end
was changed to conform to the Company's year-end.  As such, Gulf South's results
of operations  for the period  January 1, 1998 to April 3, 1998 are not included
in any of the  periods  presented  in the  accompanying  condensed  consolidated
statements of income.  Accordingly,  Gulf South's  results of operations for the
three months ended April 3, 1998 are reflected as an adjustment to shareholders'
equity of the  Company as of April 4, 1998.  Refer to the  section  titled  Gulf
South's Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 3, 1998 and March
31,  1997  included  in  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Results of
Operations for further clarification.  The Company's three and nine months ended
December  31,  1998  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  include the
combined results of operations for the period from April 4, 1998 to December 31,
1998, of both PSS and Gulf South.


THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997

Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $399.5
million,  an increase of $45.9 million or 13.0% over net sales of $353.6 million
for the three  months ended  December  31,  1997.  Net sales for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 totaled $1,154.5 million,  an increase of $141.3 million
or 13.9% over net sales of $1,013.2  million for the nine months ended  December
31,  1997.  Approximately  $34.9  million and $91.3  million of the  increase in
revenues  for the three and nine months ended  December 31, 1998,  respectively,
resulted from revenues of companies acquired subsequent to December 31, 1997 and
revenues of companies  acquired  prior to December  31, 1997,  but which did not
contribute to revenues for the full three and nine month periods ended  December
31, 1997.  The remaining net sales increase  during these periods  resulted from
sales  growth  of  existing  service  centers  coupled  with  incremental  sales
generated in connection with exclusive and semi-exclusive vendor relationships.

                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)




Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 1998 totaled
$109.7  million,  an  increase of $15.4  million or 16.3% over the three  months
ended December 31, 1997 total of $94.3 million. Gross profit for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 totaled $311.8 million,  an increase of $45.9 million or
17.2% over the nine months  ended  December  31,  1997 total of $265.9  million.
Gross  profit  as a  percentage  of net  sales was 27.5% and 26.7% for the three
months and 27.0% and 26.3% for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  The  increase  in  gross  margin  as a  percentage  of  sales  is
attributable  to an  increase  in the  sales  mix of  higher  margin  diagnostic
equipment,  an increase in sales of higher margin private label medical supplies
by the  Physician  Supply  Business,  the  ability to  negotiate  lower  product
purchasing costs which resulted from increased  purchasing  volume subsequent to
the  Gulf  South  acquisition,  and  improved  Imaging  Business  gross  margins
resulting from a film vendor  maintaining  margin dollars rebated to the Company
while  reducing  film  pricing to hospital  customers.  Although  there has been
considerable gross margin pressure from competition and a consolidating customer
base, the Company has successfully maintained its overall gross margins.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the
three months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $53.9 million,  an increase of $0.5
million or 1.0% over the three  months  ended  December  31, 1997 total of $53.3
million.  General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December
31, 1998 totaled  $160.8  million,  an increase of $7.0 million or 4.6% over the
nine months ended December 31, 1997 total of $153.7 million.  As a percentage of
net sales,  general  and  administrative  expenses  were 13.5% and 15.0% for the
three months and 13.9% and 15.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively.

In  addition  to  typical  general  and  administrative  expenses,  this  income
statement  caption includes  charges related to merger  activity,  restructuring
activity, and other special items (refer to Note 3 of the accompanying condensed
consolidated  financial statements for further discussion of these charges). The
following  table  summarizes  charges  included  in general  and  administrative
expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income:

Selling Expenses.  Selling expenses for the three months ended December 31, 1998
totaled  $32.5  million,  an  increase  of $6.2  million or 23.4% over the three
months ended December 31, 1997 total of $26.3 million.  Selling expenses for the
nine months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $89.0 million,  an increase of $14.3
million or 19.2% over the nine  months  ended  December  31, 1997 total of $74.6
million.  As a percentage of sales,  selling expenses were 8.1% and 7.5% for the
three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  and 7.7% and 7.4%
for the nine months  ended  December  31, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  Selling
expenses as a percentage  of sales  increased  due to a change in the Gulf South
sales  commission  program  from a  primarily  fixed  salary  plan to a variable
commission  plan,  and the  company-wide  addition  of  approximately  100 sales
trainees over the number of sales trainees in the comparable  prior year period.
The Company utilizes a variable commission plan, which pays commissions based on
gross profit as a percentage of net sales.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Operating Income.  Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 1998
totaled  $23.3  million,  an  increase  of $8.7  million or 59.8% over the three
months ended December 31, 1997 total of $14.6 million.  Operating income for the
nine months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $62.1 million,  an increase of $24.5
million or 65.3% over the nine  months  ended  December  31, 1997 total of $37.6
million.  As a percentage of sales,  operating  income was 5.8% and 4.1% for the
three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  and 5.4% and 3.7%
for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for three months ended December 31, 1998 and
1997 was approximately $2.7 million.  Interest expense for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 totaled  $8.8  million,  an increase of $4.9 million or 122.4%
over the nine months ended December 31, 1997 total of $4.0 million. The increase
in  interest  expense  for the nine  months  ended  December  31,  1998 over the
comparable  prior year period reflects  interest on the $125 million 8.5% senior
subordinated  debt which was  outstanding  for a full nine months  during fiscal
1999 compared to fiscal 1998.

Interest and Investment  Income.  Interest and  investment  income for the three
months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $0.5 million,  a decrease of $1.5 million
or 75.1% over the three months ended  December 31, 1997 total of $2.0.  Interest
and  investment  income for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 totaled $3.7
million, an increase of $0.2 million or 6.6% over the nine months ended December
31, 1997 total of $3.4 million.  The decrease in interest and investment  income
for the three months  ended  December  31, 1998 over the  comparable  prior year
period  reflects  the use of  cash  previously  invested  for  the  purposes  of
acquisitions and capital  expenditures during the nine months ended December 31,
1998.

Other Income.  Other income for the three months ended December 31, 1998 totaled
$1.8  million,  an increase of $0.9 million or 90.1% over the three months ended
December 31, 1997 total of $0.9 million.  Other income for the nine months ended
December  31, 1998 totaled  $3.8  million,  an increase of $1.7 million or 80.4%
over the nine months ended December 31, 1997 total of $2.1 million. Other income
consists  of finance  charges on customer  accounts  and  financing  performance
incentives.  The increase in other income  primarily  results from the growth in
the Company's operations.

Provision  For Income  Taxes.  Provision  for income  taxes for the three months
ended  December 31, 1998 totaled  $9.1  million,  an increase of $3.1 million or
51.8% over the three  months  ended  December  31,  1997 total of $6.0  million.
Provision  for income taxes for the nine months ended  December 31, 1998 totaled
$24.7  million,  an increase of $9.1 million or 58.2% over the nine months ended
December 31, 1997 total of $15.6 million.  The income tax provision  computation
is affected by the non-deductible  nature of certain  non-recurring merger costs
and expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

Net Income.  Net income for the three  months  ended  December  31, 1998 totaled
$13.8 million,  an increase of $5.1 million or 58.3% over the three months ended
December  31, 1997 total of $8.7  million.  Net income for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 totaled $36.0  million,  an increase of $12.5 million or 53.1%
over the nine  months  ended  December  31,  1997 total of $23.5  million.  As a
percentage of net sales, net income was 3.5% and 2.5% for the three months ended
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,  and 3.1% and 2.3% for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.


GULF SOUTH'S  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 3, 1998 AND

The Company acquired Gulf South on March 26, 1998 in a transaction accounted for
under the  pooling-of-interests  method of accounting.  The financial statements
have been  retroactively  restated as if Gulf South and the Company had operated
as one entity since  inception.  As discussed in Note 1--Basis of  Presentation,
due to the  consolidation  method of the Company and the differing  year ends of
PSS and Gulf South, Gulf South's results of operations for the period January 1,
1998 to April 3, 1998 are not reflected in the condensed consolidated statements

Increase Allowance for Inventory

The charge relates directly to a change of plans, uses, and disposition  efforts
which new Gulf  South  management  had as  compared  to prior  management.  This
decision to  significantly  alter Gulf South's  inventory  retention  and buying
policies, and, therefore,  to dispose of the related inventories,  resulted in a
change in the ultimate  valuation of the impacted  inventories.  This charge was
recognized in the period in which management made the decision to dispose of the
affected inventory, which was Gulf South's quarter ended April 3, 1998.

Reconciling Items

This amount  represents  the charge needed to reconcile  Gulf South's  financial
statements to its underlying books and records.

Direct Transaction Costs Related to the Merger

Direct  transaction  costs  primarily  consist  of  professional  fees,  such as
investment  banking,  legal, and accounting,  for services  rendered through the
date of the merger. As of April 2, 1999, all direct transaction costs were paid.
Due to  subsequent  negotiations  and  agreements  between  the  Company and its
service  provider,  actual costs paid were less than costs originally billed and
recorded. As a result, approximately $777 of costs were reversed against general
and administrative expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 1998.

Increase Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

This charge relates  directly to a change of plans and  collection  efforts that
new  management had as compared to prior Gulf South  management.  This change in
operational policies resulted in a change in the ultimate  collectibility of the
related  receivables  and this charge was  recognized in the period in which the
operational  decision  to change  collection  efforts  was made,  which was Gulf
South's quarter ended April 3, 1998.

Restructuring Costs and Expenses

In order to improve customer service, reduce costs, and improve productivity and
asset utilization, the Company decided to realign and consolidate its operations
with Gulf South. The restructuring costs and expenses,  which directly relate to
the merger with PSS World Medical,  Inc.,  were recorded during the three months
ended April 3, 1998. During this time period,  management approved and committed
to a plan to integrate and restructure the business of Gulf South.

The  Company  recorded  restructuring  costs  and  expenses  for costs for lease
terminations,  severance and benefits to terminate employees,  facility closure,
and other costs to complete the  consolidation of the operations.  The following
table summarizes the components of the restructuring charge.

Involuntary employee termination costs...........................      $1,879
Lease termination costs..........................................         977
Branch shutdown costs............................................         885
Other exit costs.................................................         540

                                                                       $4,281
                                                                       ======

Refer to Note 5--Accrued Merger and Restructuring Costs and Expenses, for a more
detailed discussion regarding accrued restructuring costs and expenses.

Legal Fees and Settlements

Gulf South  recorded a $2,000  accrual  for legal fees  specifically  related to
class action lawsuits,  which Gulf South,  the Company,  and certain present and
former  directors  and officers  were named as  defendants.  These  lawsuits are
further discussed in Note 19--Commitments and Contingencies.  In addition,  Gulf
South recorded a $1,577 in charges to settle certain  disputes related to vendor
and customer agreements.

Operational Tax Charge

Gulf South  recorded an  operational  tax charge of $9,492,  of which $2,771 was
recorded in the quarter ended April 3, 1998, for state and local, sales and use,
and property taxes that are normally charged directly to the customer at no cost
to the Company.  Penalties and interest are included in the above charge as Gulf
South did not timely remit payments to tax authorities. The Company reviewed all
available  information,  including tax exemption notices received,  and recorded
charges to  expense  during  the  period in which the tax  noncompliance  issues
arose. See Note 4--Charges Included in General and Administrative  Expenses, for
more detailed discussion related to this issue.

Goodwill Impairment Charges

The $1,664 goodwill  impairment  charge relates  primarily to a prior Gulf South
acquisition. During the quarter ended April 3, 1998, a dispute with the acquired
company's prior owners and management  resulted in the loss of key employees and
all  operational  information  related  to  the  acquired  customer  base.  This
ultimately  affected Gulf South's  ability to conduct  business  related to this
acquisition, and impacted Gulf South's ability to recover the value assigned the
goodwill asset.

(Loss) Income From  Operations.  Loss from operations for the three months ended
April 3, 1998 totaled $28.1 million,  a decrease of $32.1 million or 813.2% over
the three months ended March 31, 1997 income from  operations  of $4.0  million.
Operating income decreased primarily due to (i) significant 1998 charges to cost
of  sales  and  general  and  administrative   expenses,   (ii)   infrastructure
investments made in connection with the strategic objectives of the Company, and
(iii) the lower gross profit  percentage of companies  acquired,  each discussed
above.

Provision for Income Taxes.  Gulf South  recorded a tax benefit for income taxes
for the three  months  ended April 3, 1998,  of $8.3  million  compared to a tax
provision of $1.6  million for the three  months ended March 31, 1997.  The 1998
benefit primarily  resulted from the $32.5 million in unusual charges related to
merger and  restructuring  costs,  asset impairment  charges,  and other unusual
operating  charges  recorded  during the three months  ended April 3, 1998.  The
effective  rate of Gulf  South's  tax  benefit  during  1998 was lower  than the
statutory  rate,  primarily due to the  nondeductible  nature of certain of Gulf
South's direct transaction costs.

Net (Loss)  Income.  Net loss for the three  months  ended April 3, 1998 totaled
$19.6 million, a decrease of $22.4 million or 794.7% over the three months ended
March 31,  1997 net  income  of $2.8  million.  The  decrease  in net  income is
attributable  to the factors  discussed in Gross Profit and Charges  Included in
General and Administrative Expenses above, and the decrease in investment income
of $144,000 due to the use of cash and investments for business acquisitions.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As the Company's business grows, its cash and working capital  requirements will
also  continue to increase as a result of the need to finance  acquisitions  and
anticipated  growth of the  Company's  operations.  This  growth  will be funded
through  a  combination  of cash  flow  from  operations,  borrowings  under the
Company's senior revolving credit facility, and any future public offerings.

                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)



Net cash used in  operating  activities  was $10.6  million  for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998,  compared to net cash provided by operating  activities
of $4.6 million for the nine months ended  December 31, 1997,  due to the timing
of accounts receivable collections, payments of merger and acquisition expenses,
and the timing of vendor payments.

Net cash provided by investing  activities  was $0.2 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998. This primarily  resulted from $74.6 million provided by
the sale and maturities of marketable securities offset by $55.7 million related
to  purchase  business   acquisitions  and  $16.6  million  related  to  capital
expenditures,  of which  approximately $8.5 million pertained to new information
system expenditures. Net cash used by investing activities was $63.0 million for
the nine months ended  December 31, 1997.  This use of cash  primarily  resulted
from $44.8  million  related  to the  purchase  of  marketable  securities  with
proceeds of the public debt offering,  $7.7 million relate to purchase  business
acquisitions, and capital expenditures of $7.6 million.

Net cash used in  financing  activities  was $12.5  million  for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998.  This primarily  resulted from $16.0 million in payoffs
of debt assumed through business acquisitions offset by $3.8 million in proceeds
from the issuance of common stock. Net cash provided by financing activities was
$66.8  million for the nine months  ended  December  31,  1997.  This  primarily
resulted  from cash  provided  by the  issuance  of the  $125.0  million  senior
subordinated  notes and $2.5  million in  proceeds  from the  issuance of common
stock,  partially  offset by $55.1  million in payoffs of debt  assumed  through
business acquisitions.

The  Company  had working  capital of $341.2  million  and $381.2  million as of
December  31,  1998 and April 3, 1998,  respectively.  The  decrease  in working
capital primarily results from an increase in the frequency of purchase business
acquisitions  being  funded by cash.  This recent shift in the source of funding
for purchase business acquisitions results in the conversion of a portion of the
cash outlay into an intangible which is excluded from the calculation of working
capital. Accounts receivable, net of allowances,  were $263.5 million and $213.9
million at December  31, 1998 and April 3, 1998,  respectively.  The  annualized
days sales in accounts receivable was approximately 53.8 as of December 31, 1998
and 52.0 days at April 3, 1998.

Inventories  were $135.5  million and $126.9 million as of December 31, 1998 and
April 3, 1998,  respectively.  The Company had annualized  inventory turnover of
8.8x and 8.7x for the nine  months  ended  December  31, 1998 and the year ended
April 3, 1998, respectively.

(a)  EBIT represents income before income taxes plus interest expense.

(b)  EBITDA represents EBIT plus depreciation and amortization.  EBITDA is not a
     measure of  performance or financial  condition  under  generally  accepted
     accounting  principles  ("GAAP").  EBITDA is not intended to represent cash
     flow from operations and should not be considered as an alternative measure
     to income from  operations or net income  computed in accordance with GAAP,
     as an indicator of the Company's operating  performance,  as an alternative
     to cash flow from operating  activities,  or as a measure of liquidity.  In
     addition,  EBITDA does not provide  information  regarding  cash flows from
     investing  and  financing  activities  which are integral to assessing  the
     effects  on the  Company's  financial  position  and  liquidity  as well as
     understanding the Company's  historical  growth.  The Company believes that
     EBITDA is a standard measure of liquidity commonly reported and widely used
     by  analysts,  investors,  and other  interested  parties in the  financial
     markets.  However, not all companies calculate EBITDA using the same method
     and the EBITDA  numbers  set forth  above may not be  comparable  to EBITDA
     reported by other companies.

(c)  Adjusted  EBITDA   represents  EBITDA  plus  unusual  charges  included  in
     continuing  operations  less  cash paid for  unusual  charges  included  in
     continuing operations.

(d)  EBITDA coverage represents the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense.

(e)  BITDA margin represents the ratio of EBITDA to net sales.

(f)  Adjusted  EBITDA  coverage  represents  the  ratio of  Adjusted  EBITDA  to
     interest expense.

(g)  Adjusted  EBITDA  margin  represents  the ratio of  Adjusted  EBITDA to net
     sales.

(h)  The three and nine  months  ended  December  31,  1998  exclude  $1,814 and
     $4,323, respectively, of information systems accelerated depreciation.  The
     additional  depreciation is included in the  depreciation  and amortization
     line in the above table.

On October 7, 1997, the Company issued, in a private offering under Rule 144A of
the Securities Act of 1933, an aggregate  principal  amount of $125.0 million of
its 8.5% senior  subordinated  notes due in 2007 (the "Private  Notes") with net
proceeds to the Company of $119.5  million after  deduction for offering  costs.
The Private Notes are unconditionally  guaranteed on a senior subordinated basis
by all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. On February 10, 1998, the Company
closed its offer to exchange  the Private  Notes for senior  subordinated  notes
(the "Notes") of the Company with  substantially  identical terms to the Private
Notes  (except  that the Notes do not  contain  terms with  respect to  transfer
restrictions).  Interest on the Notes accrues from the date of original issuance
and is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on
April  1,  1998,  at a rate  of 8.5%  per  annum.  The  semiannual  payments  of
approximately  $5.3  million  will be funded by the  operating  cash flow of the
Company.  No other  principal  payments on the Notes are required  over the next
five years. The Notes contain

certain  restrictive  covenants  that,  among other things,  limit the Company's
ability to incur additional  indebtedness.  Provided,  however, that no event of
default exist,  additional indebtedness may be incurred if the Company maintains
a  consolidated  fixed  charge  coverage  ratio,  after  giving  effect  to such
additional indebtedness,  of greater than 2.0 to 1.0. The Company believes it is
in compliance with all debt covenants as of December 31, 1998 and April 3, 1998.

On February 11, 1999, the Company entered into a $140.0 million senior revolving
credit  facility with a syndicate of financial  institutions  with  NationsBank,
N.A. as principal agent.  Borrowings under the credit facility are available for
working capital, capital expenditures,  and acquisitions, and are secured by the
common stock and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The credit facility
expires February 10, 2004 and borrowings bear interest at certain floating rates
selected by the Company at the time of borrowing.  The credit facility  contains
certain  affirmative  and  negative  covenants,  the most  restrictive  of which
require  maintenance  of a maximum  leverage  ratio of 3.5 to 1,  maintenance of
consolidated  net worth of $337.0  million,  and  maintenance of a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio of 2.0 to 1. In addition,  the covenants limit  additional
indebtedness  and  asset  dispositions,  require  majority  lender  approval  on
acquisitions  with a total  purchase  price  greater  than  $75.0  million,  and
restrict payments of dividends.

As of December 31, 1998,  the Company has not entered into any material  working
capital commitments that require funding. The Company believes that the expected
cash flows from operations,  available borrowing under the credit facility,  and
capital  markets  are  sufficient  to  meet  the  Company's  anticipated  future
requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, and acquisitions for the
foreseeable future.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of December 31, 1998,  the Company did not hold any  derivative  financial or
commodity instruments.  The Company is subject to interest rate risk and certain
foreign currency risk relating to its operations in Europe; however, the Company
does not  consider  its  exposure in such areas to be  material.  The  Company's
interest  rate risk is  related  to its Senior  Subordinated  Notes,  which bear
interest at a fixed rate of 8.5%.

Year 2000

During the third  quarter of fiscal 1999,  management  accelerated  planned year
2000 compliance  modifications  and upgrades to the Company's  existing hardware
and  software  systems.  The  Company  is  currently  in the phase of coding and
testing  software  changes  and expects  completion  of this phase by the end of
March  1999.  The final  phase of the year 2000  compliance  plan is expected to
begin in April  1999  with  implementation  of  modifications  and  upgrades  to
existing  systems and is scheduled  to be  completed by July 1999.  The European
division and the  Long-term  Care  business  hardware  and software  systems are
currently  year 2000  compliant.  The Imaging  division  currently  has 25 of 31
service centers as well as its corporate  location hardware and software systems
converted to its new 2000 compliant system. The Physician Supply business begins
implementation  of its  hardware  and  software  system in April  1999.  Ongoing
testing will continue through the end of calendar 1999. In addition, the Company
is  currently  formulating  a  non-information  system  audit  plan to  identify
non-information operational risks at its field branches.

Concurrent with the year 2000  modifications  and upgrades to existing  systems,
the  Company is  currently  replacing  a majority  of its  internal  information
systems  hardware and software  with new systems ("New  Systems")  that are year
2000  compliant.  These New  Systems  will be used in  several  key areas of the
Company's  business,   including   inventory   management,   purchasing,   order
processing,  shipping,  receiving,  accounts payable,  accounts receivable,  and
financial  reporting.  The  Company  expects to incur  internal  payroll  costs,
consulting   fees,  and  hardware  and  software  costs  for   preparation   and
implementation of these New Systems.

The total  expected  costs  related to the  conversion  of existing  systems and
implementation of the New systems is estimated to be approximately $15.0 million
through fiscal 2000, with $8.5 million  incurred  through December 31, 1998. The
anticipated  impact  and  costs of the  project  is based on  management's  best
estimates using information currently available.  There can be no guarantee that
these estimates will be achieved and actual results could differ materially from
those plans. Based on its current estimates and information currently available,
the Company does not anticipate that the costs associated with this project will
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows in future periods.

The potential risks  associated  with the year 2000 issues include,  but are not
limited to,  temporary  disruption of the  Company's  operations in the areas of
inventory  management,   purchasing,  order  processing,   shipping,  receiving,
accounts payable,  accounts receivable,  and financial  reporting.  In addition,
communications  with  customers,  vendors,  and  other  outside  parties  may be
disrupted.  Implementation  of the New System  entails  contacting  suppliers to
ensure compatibility with the Company's  information systems and to discuss year
2000  compliance  issues.  There can be no  assurance  that the systems of other
companies  which the Company's  systems rely upon will be timely  converted,  or
that such  failure  to  convert  by  another  company  would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's systems and results of operations.

The Company is in the process of updating its  information  technology  disaster
recovery plan to include year 2000  contingencies  that may arise.  Although the
Company  anticipates that minimal business  disruption will occur as a result of
the year 2000 issues based upon currently available  information,  incomplete or
untimely  resolution  of year 2000 issues by either the  Company or  significant
suppliers,  customers  and  critical  business  partners  could  have a material
adverse  impact on the Company's  consolidated  financial  position,  results of
operations and/or cash flows in future periods.

All statements  contained herein that are not historical facts,  including,  but
not limited  to,  statements  regarding  anticipated  growth in  revenue,  gross
margins and  earnings,  statements  regarding  the  Company's  current  business
strategy,  the Company's  projected  sources and uses of cash, and the Company's
plans  for  future   development   and   operations,   are  based  upon  current
expectations.  These  statements  are  forward-looking  in nature and  involve a
number of risks and uncertainties.  Actual results may differ materially.  Among
the factors that could cause results to differ materially are the following: the
availability  of sufficient  capital to finance the Company's  business plans on
terms  satisfactory  to the  Company;  competitive  factors;  the ability of the
Company to adequately  defend or reach a settlement of  outstanding  litigations
and  investigations  involving the Company or its management;  changes in labor,
equipment  and capital  costs;  changes in  regulations  affecting the Company's
business;  future acquisitions or strategic  partnerships;  general business and
economic  conditions  ;successful  implementation  of the  Company's  year  2000
compliance plan, and other factors  described from time to time in the Company's
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company wishes to
caution  readers  not  to  place  undue  reliance  on any  such  forward-looking
statements,  which  statements  are  made  pursuant  to the  Private  Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made.

                           PART II: OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

PSS and certain of its current officers and directors are named as defendants in
a purported  securities  class action lawsuit  entitled Jack Hirsch v. PSS World
Medical, Inc., et al., Civil Action No.  98-502-cv-J-21A.  The action, which was
filed on or about May 28, 1998, is pending in the United States  District  Court
for the Middle District of Florida.  An amended  complaint was filed on December
11,  1998.  The  plaintiff  alleges,  for himself  and for a purported  class of
similarly  situated  stockholders  who allegedly  purchased the Company's  stock
between  December  23,  1997 and May 8,  1998,  that the  defendants  engaged in
violations  of certain  provisions  of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended  (the  "Exchange  Act"),  and Rule  10b-5  promulgated  thereunder.  The
allegations  are  based  upon  a  decline  in  the  PSS  stock  price  following
announcement  by PSS in May 1998  regarding the Gulf South Merger which resulted
in earnings below analyst's expectations. The plaintiff seeks damages, including
costs and expenses. PSS believes that the allegations contained in the complaint
are without  merit and  intends to defend  vigorously  against  the claims.  The
defendants  filed their  motion to dismiss on January  25,  1999.  However,  the
lawsuit  is in the  earliest  stages,  and there can be no  assurance  that this
litigation will be ultimately resolved on terms that are favorable to PSS.

Gulf South and certain of its current and former  officers and directors,  among
others,  are  named as  defendants  in two  purported  securities  class  action
lawsuits entitled Ernest Klein v. Gulf South Medical Supply, Inc., et al., Civil
Action No. 3:97cv526WS,  and Ann Krupnick v. Gulf South Medical Supply, Inc., et
al., Civil Action No.  3:97cv525BN.  Both actions,  which were filed on July 21,
1997, are pending in the United States District Court for the Southern  District
of Mississippi, Jackson Division. The plaintiff in the Klein action alleges, for
himself  and for a  purported  class  of  similarly  situated  stockholders  who
allegedly  purchased  stock in Gulf  South's  June 1996  public  offering of its
common stock, that the defendants engaged in violations of certain provisions of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), and Mississippi state
law.  The  plaintiff  in the  Krupnick  action  alleges  for  herself  and for a
purported class of similarly situated  stockholders who allegedly purchased Gulf
South Common Stock  between May 2, 1996 and July 22, 1996,  that the  defendants
engaged  in certain  violations  of the  Exchange  Act,  Rule 10b-5  promulgated
thereunder  and  Mississippi  state law.  Plaintiffs  allege that the defendants
artificially  inflated the price of Gulf South stock by  representing  that Gulf
South  was  "well  positioned"  to grow by  increasing  its  sales  to  existing
customers,  including one of its largest  customers  Living  Centers of America,
after  defendants  had been  informed by Living  Centers  that its  distribution
arrangement  with Gulf South was being  terminated  in favor of a rival  medical
supply distributor.  On August 21, 1998, the court filed an Order dismissing all
the allegations in the Krupnick action.  That case is presently on appeal to the
United  States  Court  of  Appeals  for the 5th  Circuit.  The same  Order  also
dismissed the claims  against  Defendants  Hixon,  Piper,  Tibbitts,  Pritchard,
Bayer,   and  Gulf  South  under  section  12(2)  of  the   Securities  Act  and
corresponding claims against Defendants Hixon and Gulf South under section 15 of
the Securities Act and Miss. Code Ann. Sections 75-71-717(a)(2) and 75-71-719 in
the Klein  action.  Plaintiffs'  claims under section 11 of the  Securities  Act
remain pending in the Klein case.  Plaintiffs seek damages,  including costs and
expenses.  PSS believes that the allegations  contained in the remaining  claims
are also  without  merit and  intends to defend  vigorously  against the claims.
However,  there can be no assurance  that this  litigation  will  ultimately  be
resolved on terms that are favorable to PSS.

PSS has been named in a purported patent  infringement suit filed by Bayer Corp.
in the United  States  District  Court for the Middle  District of Florida  (No.
89-235  Civ.  J-21A).  In  this  lawsuit,  Bayer  alleges  that  certain  of the
urinalysis  test strips sold under the Penny  SaverTM name  infringe  four Bayer
patents. The products are made by YeongDong Pharmaceuticals, which has agreed in
writing to indemnify  and defend the Company  against the  infringement  claims.
YeongDong Pharmaceuticals denies the products infringe the patents. In addition,
PSS has indemnity  rights against the U.S.  distributor  of the product,  BioSys
Laboratories, pursuant to its vendor agreement. Chemical analysis testing of the
products  conducted  under  the  joint  supervision  of  the  parties,  however,
indicates  that  some  representations  YeongDong  Pharmaceuticals  made  to the
Company about the  technology  used by YeongDong  Pharmaceuticals  in one of the
tests on the strip were incorrect.  PSS continues to vigorously  contest Bayer's
claims,  but has agreed to remove  those  Penny  SaverTM  urinalysis  test strip
products  containing  a test pad for  leukocytes.  The parties are  currently in
settlement  negotiations  and  PSS  believes  that  there  will  be a  favorable
settlement within the next 45 days. However, there can be no assurance that this
litigation will ultimately be resolved on terms that are favorable to PSS.

                     PART II: OTHER INFORMATION (Continued)



ITEM 1--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (Continued)

Although PSS does not manufacture products, the distribution of medical supplies
and equipment  entails  inherent risks of product  liability.  PSS is a party to
various legal and  administrative  legal  proceedings  and claims arising in the
normal course of business.  However,  PSS has not  experienced  any  significant
product  liability claims and maintains product  liability  insurance  coverage.
While any litigation  contains an element of  uncertainty,  management  believes
that,  other than as discussed  above,  the outcome of any proceedings or claims
which are  pending or known to be  threatened  will not have a material  adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,  liquidity,  or results
of operations.


ITEM 2--CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

(a)  Not applicable.

(b)  Not applicable.

(c)  On October 28, 1998,  PSS issued an  aggregate of 255,512  shares of common
     stock,  $.01 par value per  share,  to the former  shareholders  of Tristar
     Imaging  Systems,  Inc. in exchange  for all of the  outstanding  shares of
     capital  stock of  Tristar.  An  additional  33,133  shares are  subject to
     issuance to the former  shareholders  of Tristar  pending the resolution of
     potentially  indemnifiable  claims.  The issuance of securities was made in
     reliance on the exemption from registration  provided under Section 4(2) of
     the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  as a transaction by an issuer not
     involving a public  offering.  All of the  securities  were acquired by the
     recipients  for  investment  and with no view  toward a  public  resale  or
     distribution without  registration.  The recipients qualified as accredited
     investors,  the offers and sales were made without any public solicitation,
     and the stock certificates bear restrictive legends.

(d)  Not applicable.
