NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
1. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of
management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include all
adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of the interim periods.
The Company's business is highly seasonal. In general, sales and net income are
highest during the second and third quarters, which represent the peak months of
swimming pool use and installation. Operating results for the three-month or
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 1996 and footnotes thereto included in the annual report on
Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
As of September 30, 1997, SCP Pool Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries
(collectively referred to as the Company) maintain 74 service centers in 24
states located throughout the United States, except in the Northeast, from which
they sell swimming pool equipment and supplies to pool builders, retail stores,
and service firms.
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
On August 26, 1997, the board of directors declared a three-for-two stock split
of the Company's common stock, which was paid in the form of a stock dividend on
September 29, 1997 to the stockholders of record at the close of business on
September 15, 1997. Accordingly, all shares and per-share data for all periods
presented reflect the effects of this split. The par value for the additional
shares issued was transferred from additional paid-in capital to common stock.

SCP POOL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE (CONTINUED)
Primary income per common share equals net income divided by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Fully diluted
income per common share equals net income plus the after tax interest incurred
on the Company's convertible notes, divided by common shares outstanding after
giving effect to shares assumed to be issued on conversion of those notes. For
both 1997 and 1996, the effect of stock options outstanding are immaterial.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, "Earnings Per Share", which the Company will be required to adopt during
the three-month period ending December 31, 1997. The adoption of this statement
is not expected to have a material effect on the calculation of earnings per
share.
5
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company was formed in December 1993 to acquire substantially all of the
assets and assume certain liabilities of its Predecessor. From its inception in
1980 through the end of 1993, the Predecessor increased its sales by opening new
service center locations and by increasing sales to new and existing customers.
Since the Company's acquisition of the Predecessor in December 1993 (the "SCP
Acquisition"), the Company has grown through strategic acquisitions, by opening
new service centers and by increasing sales to new and existing customers. From
January 1, 1990 to September 30, 1997, the Company expanded from 8 service
centers in 6 states to 74 service centers in 24 states, primarily through
acquisitions.
The Company derives its revenues primarily from the sale of swimming pool
supplies and related products, including chemicals, cleaners, packaged pools and
liners, filters, heaters, pumps, lights, repair parts and other equipment
required to build, maintain, install and overhaul residential and small
commercial swimming pools. The Company sells its products primarily to swimming
pool remodelers and builders, independent swimming pool retailers and swimming
pool repair and service companies. These customers tend to be small, family
owned businesses with relatively limited capital resources. Losses from customer
receivables have historically been within management's expectations.
The swimming pool supply industry is affected by various factors, including
general economic conditions, the level of new housing construction, weather and
consumer attitudes towards pool chemical products for environmental or safety
reasons. Although management believes that the Company's geographic diversity
could mitigate the effect of a regional economic downturn and that the
continuing maintenance and repair needs for existing swimming pools could
mitigate the effect of a general economic downturn, there can be no assurance
that any such downturn would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations and expansion plans.
The principal components of the Company's expenses include the cost of products
purchased from manufacturers and sold during the year and operating expenses,
which are primarily related to labor, occupancy, commissions and marketing. Some
geographic markets serviced by the Company, particularly California, Texas and
Florida, tend to be more competitive than others. In response to competitive
pressures from any of its current or future competitors, the Company may be
required to lower selling prices in order to maintain or increase market share,
and such measures could adversely affect the Company's gross margins and
operating results.

The following table shows, for the periods indicated, information derived from
the consolidated statements of operations of the Company expressed as a

===================================================================
The following discussions compare the results of operations of the Company for
the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 1996
Net sales increased by $36.2 million, or 58.0%, to $98.5 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1997 from $62.3 million in the comparable 1996
period. This increase was primarily due to sales at service centers acquired
from The B-L Network, Inc. (BLN), and increased sales at existing service
centers. Service centers acquired from BLN in September 1996 contributed $28.0
million to the increase while an increase of approximately 12.0% in sales at
service centers open at least 15 months contributed $4.5 million to the
increase. Also, newly opened service centers accounted for $5.7 million of the
total increase, and offset the loss of revenue from Alliance Packaging, which
was sold in October 1996.
7
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Gross profit increased by $8.0 million, or 58.6%, to $21.5 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1997 from $13.5 million in the comparable 1996
period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales stayed relatively constant at
21.8% in the 1997 period as compared to 21.7% in the 1996 period.
Operating expenses increased by $5.2 million, or 56.2%, to $14.6 million in the
three months ended September 30, 1997 from $9.4 million in the comparable 1996
period. This increase is primarily reflective of salaries, occupancy expense and
other costs associated with new service centers, and, to a lesser extent,
payroll and other operating costs required to support the increased sales volume
at existing service centers. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales
remained relatively constant at 14.8% in the 1997 period as compared to 15.0% in
the 1996 period.
Interest and other expenses increased to $1.2 million in the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from $0.6 million in the comparable 1996 period. The
increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the Company's debt as a
result of the acquisition of BLN in September 1996 and to the financing of
seasonal inventory levels for a larger number of branches than in the comparable
1996 period.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
1996
Net sales increased by $97.4 million, or 51.5%, to $286.8 million in the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 from $189.4 million in the comparable 1996
period. This increase was primarily due to sales at service centers acquired
from BLN, sales at newly opened service centers, and increased sales at existing
service centers. Service centers acquired from BLN in September 1996 contributed
$84.1 million to the increase, sales at newly opened service centers accounted
for $10.1 million of the total increase, and an increase of approximately 10.6%
in sales at service centers open at least 15 months contributed $8.6 million to
the increase. These increases were partially offset by the loss of revenue from
Alliance Packaging, which was sold in October 1996.
Gross profit increased by $20.8 million, or 48.4%, to $63.6 million in the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 from $42.8 million in the comparable 1996
period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 0.4% to 22.2% in the
1997 period compared to 22.6% in the 1996 period primarily due to the increase
in the number of service centers in the more competitive markets of California
and Florida.
8
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Operating expenses increased by $17.0 million, or 60.7%, to $45.1 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $28.1 million in the comparable 1996
period. This increase is primarily reflective of salaries, occupancy expense and
other costs associated with new service centers, and, to a lesser extent,
payroll and other operating costs required to support the increased sales volume
at existing service centers. Because of unseasonably cool temperatures and
continuing wet and rainy weather in much of the United States, primarily during
the three-month period ended June 30, 1997, the increases in revenue over the
comparable 1996 period were not proportionate with these increased costs.
Therefore, operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 15.7% in the
1997 period compared to 14.8% in the 1996 period.
Interest and other expenses increased to $3.5 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $1.9 million in the comparable 1996 period. The
increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the Company's debt as a
result of the acquisition of BLN in September 1996 and to the financing of
seasonal inventory levels for a larger number of branches than in the comparable
1996 period.
SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS
The Company's business is highly seasonal. In general, sales and net income are
highest during the second and third quarters, which represent the peak months of
swimming pool use and installation. Sales are substantially lower during the
first and fourth quarters, when the Company may incur net losses.
The Company experiences a build-up of inventory and accounts payable during the
first and second quarters of the year in anticipation of the peak swimming pool
supply selling season. The Company's peak borrowing occurs during the second
quarter, primarily because dated accounts payable offered by the Company's
suppliers typically are payable in April, May and June, while the Company's peak
accounts receivable collections typically occur in June, July and August.
The principal external factor affecting the Company's business is weather. Hot
weather can increase purchases of chemicals and supplies and pool installations.
Unseasonably cool weather or heavier than average amounts of rainfall during the
peak sales season can decrease purchases of chemicals and supplies and pool
installations. In addition, unseasonably early or late warming trends can
increase or decrease the length of the pool season and, therefore, the Company's
sales.
9
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS (CONTINUED)
To encourage preseason orders, the Company, like many other swimming pool supply
distributors, utilizes preseason sales programs which provide for extended
dating terms and other incentives to its customers. Some of the Company's
suppliers also offer extended dating terms on certain products to the Company
for preseason or early season purchases. In offering extended dating terms to
its customers and accepting extended dating terms from its suppliers, the
Company effectively finances a portion of its receivables with extended
payables.
The Company expects that its quarterly results of operations will fluctuate
depending on the timing and amount of revenue contributed by new service centers
and acquisitions. The Company attempts to open its new stores at the end of the
fourth quarter or the beginning of the first quarter to take advantage of
preseason sales programs and the peak season.
The following table sets forth certain unaudited quarterly data for 1996 and the
first three quarters for 1997 which, in the opinion of management, reflect all
adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
fair presentation of such data. Results of any one or more quarters are not
necessarily indicative of results for an entire fiscal year or of continuing
trends.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Currently, the Company's primary sources of working capital are cash flow from
operations and borrowings under the Senior Loan Facility, which consists of a
term loan and a revolving line of credit. The Company's borrowings under its
credit facilities, together with cash flow from operations and seller financing
have historically been sufficient to support the Company's growth and to finance
acquisitions. Available credit under the revolving line of credit at September
30, 1997 is $29.5 million, subject to an accounts receivable and inventory
borrowing base limit. Considering the Company's borrowing base as of September
30, 1997, the Company had approximately $15.3 million available for borrowing
under the Senior Loan Facility, the only additional credit source currently
available to the Company.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company's operating
activities used $1.7 million of cash to fund operating activities primarily due
to the normal seasonal decrease in accounts receivable, inventory and accounts
payable as discussed above. The Company borrowed $13.5 million under its
revolving line of credit to meet these seasonal working capital requirements and
made scheduled payments of $13.9 million required under its term loan and for
indebtedness to sellers of acquired businesses.
Borrowings under the Senior Loan Facility may, at the Company's option, bear
interest at either (i) the agent's corporate base rate or the federal funds rate
plus 0.5%, whichever is higher, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 1.0% or (ii)
LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50%, in each case depending on the
Company's leverage ratio. Substantially all of the assets of the Company (other
than inventory acquired from BLN, which secures the Company's obligations to the
seller of BLN), including the capital stock of South Central Pool Supply, Inc.,
the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, secure the Company's obligations under
the Senior Loan Facility. The Senior Loan Facility has numerous restrictive
covenants which require the Company to maintain minimum levels of interest
coverage and fixed charge coverage and which also restrict the Company's ability
to pay dividends and make capital expenditures. As of September 30, 1997, the
Company was in compliance with all such covenants and financial ratio
requirements. The Senior Loan Facility expires on September 26, 2002.
To finance future acquisitions, the Company may utilize its ability to borrow
additional funds under the Senior Loan Facility or, depending on market
conditions, incur additional indebtedness or issue common or preferred stock
(which may be issued to third parties or to sellers of acquired businesses).
