Report of Independent Accountants


To Connectivity Products, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and divisional
equity  of  Energy  Electric   Cable,  a  division  of   Connectivity   Products
Incorporated,  as of December 31, 1996 and the related statements of revenue and
expenses,  and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

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

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial  position of the Energy Electric Cable, a
division of Connectivity Products Incorporated,  as of December 31, 1996 and the
results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the years ended  December 31,
1996 and 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Energy Electric Cable
a division of Connectivity Products Incorporated

Notes to Financial Statements


1.   Organization:

     Energy  Electric  Cable  ("EEC") is a  division  of  Connectivity  Products
     Incorporated ("CPI") and involved in the distribution of wire and cable for
     the computer networking, security, signal and sound markets. CPI was formed
     on October 3,  1995 as a result of the merger among BSCC Corporation,  BSCC
     Group,  Energy  Electric Cable,  Inc.  ("EEC,  Inc." and predecessor of the
     EEC division) and Energy Electric Assembly,  Inc.  Effective May 31,  1996,
     Connectivity Technologies, Inc. ("CTI") acquired from CPI's stockholders 85
     percent of its outstanding common stock.

     On July 11, 1997, Anicom,  Inc. ("Anicom") acquired for $27 million in cash
     and $2 million of its common stock (subject to adjustments)  certain assets
     and liabilities (excluding debt and tax obligations) of the EEC division of
     CPI.



2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

     a.   Basis of  Presentation:  The financial  statements  reflect the  
          historical financial position,  results of operations,  and cash flows
          of the EEC Division of CPI. For periods subsequent to October 3, 1995,
          EEC was not a  separate  legal  entity.  The  financial  position  and
          results of  operations,  as presented  herein,  may not be the same as
          would have occurred had EEC been an entity independent of CPI.

          The 1995 and 1996 results of operations include all direct revenue and
          costs related to EEC and its predecessor corporation,  EEC, Inc. Costs
          subsequent  to  October 3,  1995 (date of the merger and  formation of
          CPI) include an allocation of certain general  corporate  expenses and
          interest  expense  specifically  allocated to the EEC division of CPI.
          The  extraordinary  item  related  to the  loss  on  debt  refinancing
          represents  an  allocation  of the  total  unamortized  bonds  fees of
          $266,547, which were written off by CPI in 1996 in connection with its
          debt  refinancing.   Outstanding  liabilities  related  to  the  above
          allocation as well as all  allocated  debt are included on the balance
          sheet in division equity and allocated debt.

     b.   Pro Forma  Adjustments:  The pro forma tax  provision  and pro forma 
          net income  reflect an additional  tax provision for the periods prior
          to May 31,  1996,  computed on a  stand-alone  basis as if the EEC had
          been a separate  C-Corporation  (and  therefore,  liable  for  federal
          income taxes) since January 1, 1995.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

     c.   Inventories:  Inventories  are stated at the lower of cost or market,
          with cost determined on the first-in,  first-out  basis. All inventory
          is classified as finished goods.

     d.   Property,  Plant  and  Equipment:  Property,  plant and  equipment  
          are  recorded  at  cost.   Depreciation   is   calculated   using  the
          straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual
          assets (5 to 12 years for  equipment  and 3 to 10 years for  leasehold
          improvements).  Costs of major renewals and additions are capitalized,
          while  expenditures for repairs and maintenance  costs are expensed as
          incurred.  Upon retirement or disposal of property and equipment,  the
          cost and accumulated  depreciation are removed from the accounts,  and
          any gain or loss is included in the determination of net income.

     e.   Income  Taxes:  Through  May 31,  1996,  CPI,  as  well  as  EEC,  
          Inc.,   had  elected  to  be  treated  as  an   S-corporation,   under
          Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the income tax
          provision for periods prior to May 31  represents  primarily state and
          local taxes  which were the  liabilities  of EEC.  There is no federal
          income  tax  provision  prior to May 31  since  the  income of EEC was
          required  to be  reported  in the  stockholders'  income tax  returns.
          Effective  May 31,  1996, CPI became a  C-Corporation  and for periods
          subsequent to that date was included in CTI's consolidated tax returns
          and its  provision  for  income  taxes as well as that of EEC has been
          computed on a stand-alone basis. Under the tax-sharing  agreement with
          CTI,  EEC is  required  to make a payment for taxes to CTI only if CTI
          has a current tax liability. All of CTI's current consolidated taxable
          income is  expected  to be  offset by  available  net  operating  loss
          carryforwards and, therefore, no current tax liability is expected. As
          a result,  EEC's  computed  current tax provision has been credited to
          division equity as a capital contribution.

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



3.   Leases:

     The division  leases its  facilities and certain shop  equipment,  
     vehicles and office  equipment under various  operating leases which expire
     on various dates through 2001. Management expects that in the normal course
     of  business,  leases  that  expire  will be renewed or  replaced  by other
     leases.

3.   Leases, continued:

     Future  minimum  payments  under the  operating  leases are  summarized  as
     follows:

        Years ending December 31:
             1997                                       $        773,426
             1998                                                629,401
             1999                                                554,588
             2000                                                507,989
             2001                                                396,387

                                                        ================


     Rent  expense was  approximately  $800,530 and $638,196 for the years ended
     December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.



4.   Income Taxes:

     Prior to May 31,  1996, the Company was not liable for federal income taxes
     and  therefore  essentially  all taxes  prior to 1996 were  state and local
     taxes.  At May 31,  1996,  when the Company became a  C-Corporation,  a net
     deferred  tax  asset  in  the  amount  of  $203,336  was  established.  The
     components of the provision for income taxes for 1996 are as follows:

        Federal:
            Currently due                                $       783,749   
            Deferred                                             (14,318)
            Deferred taxes established at May 31                (203,336)
            
        State and local                                           98,410
                                                         ----------------
                                                         $       664,505
                                                         ================   


     A reconciliation  of the federal statutory income tax rate to the effective
     tax rate follows:

        Statutory rate                                           34.0 %
        Taxes not required on income prior to May 31            (15.2)

                                                         =============




5.   Related Party Transaction:

     During  1995  and  1996,   EEC  purchased   approximately   $7 million  and
     $10.8 million,  respectively,  of inventory from BSCC  Corporation  and the
     BSCC division of CPI.



6.   Contingencies:

     CPI is a party to various legal proceedings and administrative actions, all
     of  which  management  believes  to be of an  ordinary  or  routine  nature
     incident to its operations. In the opinion of management,  such proceedings
     will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material impact on EEC's
     financial position.

<PAGE>


  Anicom, Inc., Energy Electric Cable, a division of CPI and Other Acquisitions
               Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

                                   (Unaudited)

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information give effect, on
a purchase  accounting  basis,  to the Asset  Purchase  Agreement by and between
Anicom, Inc., Reel Acquisition Corp. (hereinafter referred to as "Anicom"),  and
Connectivity  Products,  Inc. and certain other acquisitions completed by Anicom
during 1996.

The  unaudited  pro forma  condensed  combined  balance  sheet at June 30,  1997
assumes that the  acquisition of Energy occurred on June 30, 1997. The unaudited
pro forma condensed combined  statements of income for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the year ended  December  31, 1996 assume that the  acquisition  of
Energy  occurred on January 1, 1996. The purchase price consisted of $27 million
in cash and 190,476 shares of Anicom's common stock,  $.001 par value per share.
The  sources of the cash used to fund the  purchase  price were (i) $17  million
provided by the  liquidation  of marketable  securities  and (ii) $10 million in
cash  borrowed  under  Anicom's   Revolving  Credit  Facility.   The  marketable
securities  represent the residual  proceeds of the second quarter 1997 issuance
of 27,000 shares of convertible  preferred stock. As the Energy  acquisition was
substantially funded by the convertible preferred stock offering,, the unaudited
pro forma combined  statements  assume that this offering occurred on January 1,
1996.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined  statements of operations also assume
that Anicom's 1996 acquisitions of Northern Wire & Cable, Inc.  ("Northern") and
Norfolk Wire &  Electronics,  Inc.  ("Norfolk")  occurred on January 1, 1996. As
these  acquisitions  were  substantially  funded by the November 1995  follow-on
offering of 3,450,000 shares of common stock  (including  450,000 shares for the
underwriters' overallotment), the unaudited pro forma combined statements assume
that this offering occurred on January 1, 1996.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary  assumptions of the
allocation  of the  purchase  price  and are  subject  to  revision  upon  final
settlement of all purchase price  adjustments  and the completion of evaluations
and other  studies  of the fair  value of all assets  acquired  and  liabilities
assumed.  Actual purchase  accounting  adjustments may differ from the pro forma
adjustments presented herein.

The  unaudited  pro forma  condensed  combined  statements  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the  transactions
described  above  had  been  effective  since  the  assumed  dates,  nor are the
statements  indicative  of  future  combined  financial  position  or  earnings.
Anicom's future  financial  statements will reflect the acquisition of Energy as
of July 1, 1997.

The  pro  forma  condensed  combined  financial  statements  should  be  read in
conjunction with the consolidated  financial  statements of Anicom as filed with
the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  in its Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1996 and Current  Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June
30, 1997.

The  following is a summary of the  adjustments  reflected in the  unaudited pro
forma condensed combined statement of operations:

A - Earnings  effect of Energy  goodwill  amortization  using a 40 year recovery
period.

C -  Recognize  interest  expense on $10  million  borrowings  against  Anicom's
Revolving Credit Facility used, in part, to fund the Energy acquisition.

Preferred  Stock was  converted  into  common  stock.  Based on this,  Pro forma
earnings  per share and weighted  average  common  shares and share  equivalents
outstanding  assume full  conversion  of the $27 million  Convertible  Preferred
Stock on January 1, 1996.

E - Adjustment of income tax provision to reflect the approximate  effective tax

            Anicom, Inc. and Energy Electric Cable, a Division of CPI
            Notes to Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Income
                      for the year ended December 31, 1996


The  following is a summary of the  adjustments  reflected in the  unaudited pro
forma condensed combined statement of operations:

A - Earnings  effect of Energy  goodwill  amortization  using a 40 year recovery
period.

B - Earnings  effect of Other  Acquisitions  goodwill  using a 40 year  recovery
period.

C - Eliminate interest expensed allocated to Energy by CPI.

D - In connection with the asset purchase of Northern, Anicom assumed up to $6.5
million of Northern's  outstanding bank debt.  Immediately  after the closing of
this  transaction,  Anicom  retired  the  outstanding  bank  debt  assumed  from
Northern. Interest expense has been adjusted to give effect to the retirement of
this debt as if such transactions had occurred on January 1, 1996.

E - In connection with the merger of Norfolk,  Anicom assumed approximately $2.5
million of Norfolk's  outstanding  bank debt.  Immediately  after the closing of
this transaction, Anicom retired the outstanding bank debt assumed from Norfolk.
Interest expense has been adjusted to give effect to the retirement of this debt
as if such transactions had occurred on January 1, 1996.

F -  Recognize  interest  expense on $10  million  borrowings  against  Anicom's
Revolving Credit Facility used, in part, to fund the Energy acquisition.

G - Adjustment of income tax provision to reflect the approximate  effective tax
rate of Anicom on the combined results.

H - Historical  Energy amount represents  portion of extraordinary  loss on debt
restructuring  incurred by CPI and  allocated  to Energy.  As this amount is not
relevant to the  operations of the business  acquired by Anicom,  the amount has
been eliminated.
