NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: GENERAL
- ----------------
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 1998.
In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of
November 30, 1998 and the results of its operations for the three and six month
periods and its cash flows for the six month periods ended November 30, 1998 and
1997.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassed to conform with the fiscal 1999
presentation.
NOTE 2: ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------
Reference is made to Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the summary of significant accounting
policies.
NOTE 3: EARNINGS PER SHARE AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE
- ------------------------------------------------
In fiscal 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, which establishes standards
for computing and presenting earnings per share. As a result, earnings per
share for the first and second quarters of fiscal 1998 have been restated as
indicated below. Basic earnings per share was computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. The
computation of diluted earnings per share further assumes the dilutive effect of
stock options. The adoption of SFAS No. 128 increased earnings per share by
$.01 for the three months and six months ended November 30, 1997.

Options to purchase 1,219,545 shares of common stock at option prices ranging
from $27.875 to $35.875 per share were outstanding as of November 30, 1998, but
were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options'
exercise price was greater than the average market price of the shares for the
three months and six months ended
6
November 30, 1998. The options expire on dates ranging from June, 2000 through
November, 2017.
NOTE 4: INVESTMENT IN SERIAL SYSTEM, LTD.
- -----------------------------------------
The Company's investment in Serial Systems, LTD., the shares of which are traded
on the Stock Exchange of Singapore, is recorded at fair market value. The
investment in Serial of $7.2 million has been reduced by $3.3 million as of
November 30, 1998, which was charged to Shareholders' Investment, due to the
market declines of Serial's common stock and the Singapore dollar to the U.S.
dollar. The Company did not record a tax benefit as a result of this
adjustment.
NOTE 5: COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997
The Company's net sales increased by $84 million or 24% to $435 million and $221
million or 33% to $896 million for the three and six months ended November 30,
1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The
Company's results included Sterling Electronics ("Sterling") which was acquired
on January 16, 1998. Sterling's net sales accounted for $90 million and $181
million of the increase for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998,
respectively.
Excluding Sterling's net sales, the Company's net sales decreased by $6 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 1999, and increased by $40 million for the six
months ended November 30, 1998, as compared to the prior year. The Company's net
sales for fiscal 1999 benefited from a substantial increase in the sales of
microprocessors. The sales of such products increased by $41 million and $69
million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999,
respectively, as compared to last year. The exceptional sales of microprocessors
were primarily due to the strong demand and increased availability of such
products, and special purchases of some end-of-production products from one of
the Company's major suppliers. There is no assurance that such special purchases
will be available in future periods. Sales of microprocessors accounted for
approximately 15% and 14% of the Company's sales for the three and six months
ended November 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to approximately 6% and 9%
for the same periods, respectively, of a year ago.
The increases in microprocessor sales, however, were partially offset by
declines in DRAM sales of $26 million and $46 million for the second quarter and
first six months of fiscal 1999, respectively, compared to the prior year. The
decrease in DRAM sales is primarily due to the continuing declines in the unit
pricing of such products. The Company's DRAM sales have also been impacted by a
reduction in the volume of products made available to the distributor network by
some major suppliers due to pricing, profitability and in recent months, supply
considerations. Sales of DRAMs accounted for approximately 4% of the Company's
net sales for both the three and six month periods ended November 30, 1998, as
compared to approximately 12% for the same periods of a year ago.
The operating results for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 benefited from the
shipments of some large value-added orders for a major customer through its
contract manufacturer. Partly due to the timing of product introductions and
some seasonal characteristics of the finished end products, the order levels for
this customer were significantly lower in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.
9
Additionally, the Company's net sales for the three months ended November 30,
1998 were adversely affected by weak customer demand toward the latter part of
the quarter.
Despite the continuing competitive market pressures affecting many of the
products the Company sells, net margins for the second quarter of fiscal 1999
increased to 15.5% as compared to fiscal 1998 at 14.8%, and to 15.6% for the
first six months of fiscal 1999 as compared to fiscal 1998 at 15.2%. This was
primarily due the inclusion of Sterling's sales, which have relatively higher
margins due to differences in product and customer mix and to the significant
decline in the sales of DRAMs, which are lower margin products, as compared to
the Company's other major products. This improvement in gross margin was
partially offset by the increase in the sales of microprocessors in fiscal 1999,
which are generally low margin products for distributors.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased by $17.3
million and $37.6 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal
1999, respectively, as compared to fiscal 1998. Excluding Sterling's SG&A
expenses of $15.3 million and $31.8 million for the second quarter and first six
months of fiscal 1999, the Company's SG&A expenses increased by $2.0 million and
$5.8 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999,
respectively, as compared to the prior year. Salary adjustments and staffing
increases in areas such as product management and information technology
resulted in higher salary costs of $1.8 million and $3.6 million for the second
quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999, respectively, as compared to the
prior year. In addition, approximately $0.8 million and $1.5 million in goodwill
amortization expense relating to the Sterling acquisition was incurred in the
second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999, respectively. The balance of
the increase in the Company's SG&A expenses for current periods reported, as
compared to last year, was mainly to service the higher sales volumes. The
Sterling expenses included the costs of consolidating the warehousing operations
and the integration of the automated warehousing equipment to the Company's
operating systems. These costs were $0.7 million and $1.8 million for the second
quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999, respectively.
The increase in net interest expense to $3.9 million and $8.5 million in the
second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1999, as compared to $0.4 million
and $1.2 million for the same periods in the last fiscal year was primarily due
to bank borrowings incurred for the acquisition of Sterling. Additionally, the
Company had higher levels of borrowings to support increases in inventories and
receivables related to the higher levels of sales volumes during the first
quarter, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1999.
"Interest expense and other-net" includes the amortization of goodwill
associated with the Company's investment in the Sonepar Electronique
10
International ("SEI") companies, along with the Company's pro-rata share of
SEI's net income or loss. Such amounts were $1.0 million and $0.5 million in
net expenses for the three and six months ended November 30,1998, respectively.
The net amortization of goodwill and the Company's share of SEI's net operating
results were not material in fiscal 1998. SEI's operating results for fiscal
1998 and 1999 have been negatively impacted by the difficult market conditions
in the industry.
In October 1998, the Company was notified by Xilinx that it would be terminating
its distribution agreement with the Company effective December 31, 1998. Xilinx,
which supplies mostly field programmable logic products, represented
approximately 5% of the Company's consolidated sales for the three months and
six months ended November 30, 1998. The Company has a strategy of adding new
suppliers to increase and enhance its product offerings. Since early fiscal
1999, the Company has signed distributor agreements with three new major
suppliers: Berg Electronics, Inc., Micron Technology Products, and Vishay
Intertechnology, Inc. Subsequent to November 30, 1998, two other major
suppliers, Maxim Integrated Products and Lucent Technologies, Inc., which is
considered a leading supplier of field programmable logic products, awarded the
Company distributor agreements to sell their products. The Company believes
that the additional sales from these new suppliers, once fully launched, will
offset most of the sales lost by the Xilinx termination. During the transition
period, however, the Company expects that quarterly operating results may be
adversely impacted.
The Company's sources of liquidity at November 30, 1998 consisted principally of
working capital of $400 million and available borrowings under the Company's
bank credit facility. As of November 30,1998 there were $210 million in
borrowings outstanding under the Company's $325 million bank credit facility.
Under the terms of the bank facility, quarterly amortization payments are
required beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 1999, which would result in
full payment by the year 2002. The total amortization payment due in fiscal
1999 is $7.5 million. The Company believes that its working capital, borrowing
capabilities and additional funds generated from operations for the remainder of
the year should be sufficient to finance its anticipated operating requirements.
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
