Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Accounting Policies
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (which are comprised only of
normal recurring accruals and the use of estimates) necessary to present
fairly the consolidated financial position of Owens & Minor, Inc. and its
wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 1998 and the
consolidated results of operations for the three and six month periods and
cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
2. Interim Results of Operations
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. Interim Gross Margin Reporting
The Company uses estimated gross margin rates to determine the cost of goods
sold during interim periods. To improve the accuracy of its estimated gross
margins for interim reporting purposes, the Company takes physical inventory
counts at selected distribution centers. Reported results of operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 reflect the
results of such counts, to the extent that they are materially different from
estimated amounts. Management will continue a program of interim physical
inventories at selected distribution centers to the extent it deems
appropriate to ensure the accuracy of interim reporting and to minimize
year-end adjustments.
4. Nonrecurring Restructuring Expenses
During the three month period ended June 30, 1998, the Company recorded a
nonrecurring charge of $11.2 million, or $6.6 million after tax, related to
the impact of the cancellation of its medical/surgical distribution contract
with Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia/ HCA"). The restructuring
plan includes reductions in warehouse space and in the number of employees in
those divisions which have the highest volume of business with Columbia/HCA
facilities. This restructuring plan is expected to be substantially complete
by late in the fourth quarter of 1998.
The major components of this liability are as follows:
Losses under lease commitments $ 4.2
Asset writeoffs 4.0
Employee separations 2.5
Other 0.5
=========
Total $11.2
=========
No charges were made against this liability during the quarter ended June 30,
1998.
5. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

6. Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Securities
In May 1998, Owens & Minor Trust I (the "Trust"), a statutory business trust
sponsored and wholly-owned by Owens & Minor, Inc. ("O&M") issued 2,640,000
shares of $2.6875 Term Convertible Securities, Series A, (the "Securities")
for aggregate proceeds of $132 million. Each Security has a liquidation value
of $50. The proceeds were invested by the Trust 5.375% Junior Subordinated
Convertible Debentures of the O&M (the "Debentures"). The Debentures are the
sole assets of the Trust. O&M applied substantially all of the net proceeds
of the Debentures to repurchase 1,150,000 shares of its Series B Cumulative
Preferred Stock at its par value.
The Securities accrue and pay quarterly cash distributions at an annual rate
of 5.375% of the liquidation value. Each Security is convertible into 2.4242
shares of the common stock of O&M at the holder's option prior to May 1,
2013. The Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturity of the
Debentures on April 30, 2013, and may be redeemed in whole or in part after
May 1, 2001. The obligations of the Trust, as provided under the terms of the
Securities, are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by O&M.
7. Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information
for: O&M; on a combined basis, the guarantors of O&M's 10 7/8% Senior
Subordinated 10-year Notes (the "Notes") (all of the wholly owned
subsidiaries of O&M except for O&M Funding Corp. ("OMF") and the Trust); and
OMF and the Trust, O&M's non-guarantors of the Notes. Separate financial
statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because the
guarantors are jointly, severally and unconditionally liable under the
guarantees and O&M believes the condensed consolidating financial statements
are more meaningful in understanding the financial position of the guarantor
subsidiaries.

Item 2. Owens & Minor, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
The following management discussion and analysis describes material changes in
the Company's financial condition since December 31, 1997. Trends of a material
nature are discussed to the extent known and considered relevant. This
discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements, related notes thereto and management's discussion and analysis of
financial condition and results of operations included in the Company's 1997
Annual Report to Shareholders and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.
General
On May 26, 1998, Columbia/HCA informed the Company of its intention to cancel
its medical/surgical supply contract. The Company and Columbia/HCA have agreed
upon a plan for transition of the Columbia/HCA business. This plan will result
in a reduction in purchases by Columbia/HCA from the Company beginning in the
third quarter of 1998. By the end of the third quarter, the majority of the
Columbia/HCA business should have transferred from the Company. For the first
six months of 1998, approximately 12% of the Company's net sales were to
Columbia/HCA facilities.
Results of Operations
Second quarter and first six months of 1998 compared with 1997
Net sales. Net sales increased 2.9% to $799.0 million in the second quarter of
1998 from $776.7 million in the second quarter of 1997. Net sales increased 4.6%
to $1.60 billion in the first six months of 1998 from $1.53 billion in the first
six months of 1997. The increase in sales was a result of both new customer
contracts and increased penetration of existing accounts.
Gross margin. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 10.3% in
the second quarter and the first six months of 1998 from 10.0% in the second
quarter and the first six months of 1997. This improvement reflects the
Company's continuing success with supply chain initiatives with key suppliers.
The Company will continue to focus on improving margin levels through continued
emphasis on supply chain initiatives.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and
administrative (SG&A) expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 7.6% in
the second quarter and the first six months of 1998 from 7.5% in the second
quarter and the first six months of 1997. The increase was primarily the result
of approximately $0.7 million of expense incurred in the second quarter of 1998
and $1.5 million in the first six months of 1998 in connection with the
Company's initiatives to enable computer processing in the Year 2000 and beyond.
In the second quarter of 1998, the Company continued to use information
technology to control costs through more extensive use of EDI in transactions
with both customers and suppliers. The positive results of SG&A expense
initiatives will continue to be partially offset with additional expenses
associated with the preparation of the Company's systems for the Year 2000.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by 4.0%
in the second quarter of 1998 compared to the second quarter of 1997 and
increased by 5.1% in the first six months of 1998 compared to the first six
months of 1997. This increase was due primarily to the Company's continued
investment in information technology, including capital spending in the first
six months of 1998 for systems upgrades of $0.9 million associated with Year
2000 issues. The Company anticipates similar increases in depreciation and
amortization for the remainder of 1998 associated with additional capital
investment in information technology.
13
Interest expense, net, and discount on accounts receivable securitization
(financing costs). Financing costs decreased to $4.6 million in the second
quarter of 1998 from $5.2 million in the second quarter of 1997, net of finance
charge income of $0.8 million in both periods. Financing costs decreased to $9.8
million in the first six months of 1998 from $11.1 million in the first six
months of 1997, net of finance charge income of $1.6 million and $1.8 million,
respectively. This reduction has been a result of the Company's ability to
reduce borrowings and lower effective interest rates. The Company reduced
outstanding debt, excluding the impact of the accounts receivable
securitization, by approximately $72.6 million in the first six months of 1998.
This reduction is due to improvement in cash flow from operations as a result of
the Company's improved profitability. The Company will continue to take action
to reduce financing costs by continuing its working capital reduction
initiatives and management of interest rates, although the future results of
these initiatives cannot be assured.
Distribution on mandatorily redeemable preferred securities and dividends on
preferred stock. In May 1998, the Trust issued $132 million of $2.6875 Term
Convertible Securities. O&M applied substantially all of the proceeds to
repurchase and retire 1,150,000 shares of its Series B Cumulative Preferred
Stock at its par value. The Securities accrue and pay cash distributions
quarterly at an annual rate of 5.375% of the liquidation value of $50. As of
June 30, 1998, the Company had accrued $0.9 million of distributions related to
these Securities.
Nonrecurring restructuring expenses. As a result of the Columbia/HCA contract
termination, the Company recorded a nonrecurring restructuring charge of $11.2
million, or $6.6 million after taxes, in the second quarter of 1998, to reflect
the Company's plan to downsize warehouse operations in those divisions with the
highest volumes of sales to Columbia/HCA facilities. This charge consists
primarily of costs associated with employee separations and reductions in
warehouse space. No charges were made against this liability during the quarter
ended June 30, 1998.
Income taxes. The Company had an income tax provision of $4.8 million in the
first six months of 1998 compared with $7.7 million in the first six months of
1997 and an effective tax rate of 41.0%, compared to 41.9% for the same period
in 1997.
Net income. Net income decreased $5.6 million in the second quarter of 1998
compared to the second quarter of 1997 and decreased $3.9 million in the first
six months of 1998 compared to the first six months of 1997. The decrease was
due to the impact of the restructuring charge discussed above. Excluding the
effect of the restructuring charge, net income increased 17% and net income per
basic and diluted common share increased to $0.19 from $0.14 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1997. This increase
was primarily due to the improvements previously discussed in gross margin and
reduced financing costs. Although the trend, before considering the
restructuring charge, has been favorable, and the Company continues to pursue
initiatives to improve gross margin and reduce SG&A expenses, the future impact
on net income cannot be assured.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity. The Company's liquidity improved during the second quarter of 1998
compared to the second quarter of 1997. Outstanding financing (excluding the
impact of the off balance sheet accounts receivable securitization) was reduced
by $72.6 million to $220.0 million at June 30, 1998 from $292.6 million at
December 31, 1997. The capitalization ratio at June 30, 1998, including the
Securities as equity, and excluding the effect of the accounts receivable
securitization, was 43.8% compared to 50.2% at June 30, 1997. The improvement
was the result of lower outstanding financing.
14
In May 1998, O&M repurchased all of its outstanding Series B Cumulative
Preferred Stock, financing the repurchase with substantially all the proceeds of
the $132.0 million of Securities issued by the Trust. Management believes that
these transactions will result in lower overall costs of capital.
The Company expects that its available financing will be sufficient to fund its
working capital needs and long-term strategic growth plans, although this cannot
be assured. At June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $225.0 million of
unused credit under its revolving credit facility.
Working Capital Management. During the second quarter of 1998, the Company's
working capital increased compared to the second quarter of 1997 as a result of
higher sales levels and increased cash flows from operations. The Company's
accounts receivable days sales outstanding (excluding the impact of the off
balance sheet accounts receivable securitization) decreased to 31.6 at June 30,
1998 from 32.8 at December 31, 1997. Inventory turnover decreased to 9.0 in the
second quarter of 1998 from 9.8 in the second quarter of 1997 and from 10.1 in
the fourth quarter of 1997 as a result of inventory purchasing opportunities.
Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures were approximately $5.4 million in
the first six months of 1998, of which approximately $4.6 million was for
computer hardware and software, including $0.9 million for system upgrades for
the Year 2000 initiative. The Company expects to continue to invest in
technology, including system upgrades, as the most cost effective method of
reducing operating expenses. These capital expenditures are expected to be
funded through cash flow from operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for hedging activities. This Statement is effective for all
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Management believes the
effect on the Company of the adoption of this standard will be limited to
financial statement presentation and disclosure and will not have a material
effect on the financial condition or results of operations.
In March 1998, the AICPA Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. SOP 98-1 requires that certain costs
related to the development or purchase of internal-use software be capitalized
and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. The SOP also
requires that costs related to the preliminary stage and the
post-implementation/operations stage of an internal-use computer software
development project be expensed as incurred. This Statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The Company has adopted this
standard effective January 1, 1998. Adoption of this standard did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations
for the second quarter of 1998.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. SFAS No. 132 amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 87, Employers' Accounting for Pensions, SFAS No. 88,
Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit
Pensions Plans and for Termination Benefits, and SFAS No. 106, Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. This Statement
standardizes the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 87 and SFAS No. 106 and
recommends a parallel format for presenting information about pensions and other
postretirement benefits. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997. Management believes the effect on the Company of
adoption of this standard will be limited to changes in financial statement
presentation and disclosure.

Forward-looking Statements
Certain statements in this discussion constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, including, but not
limited to, general economic and business conditions, competition, changing
trends in customer profiles, outcomes of outstanding litigation, and changes in
government regulations. Although the Company believes that its expectations with
respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions
within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, there can be
no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company
will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Readiness for Year 2000
The Company continues to work closely with both customers and suppliers to
ensure that they are continuing with the development of plans to address the
Year 2000 issue. As of June 30, 1998, the Company continues to implement its
strategy for remediation which is expected to be completed in the first quarter
of 1999. Although the Company expects its remediation efforts to be completed on
a timely basis, failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations. During the first six months of 1998, the
Company incurred $1.5 million of expenses and $0.9 million of capital
expenditures related to this strategy.
Part II. Other Information

Item 2. Changes in Securities
On May 12, 1998, O&M and Crestar Bank, as Trustee, executed Supplemental
Indenture No. 1 (the "Supplemental Indenture") in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture dated as of May 29, 1996 (the "Indenture") relating to the Notes.
The Supplemental Indenture made certain technical amendments to the Indenture to

Preferred Stock with the proceeds of the offering the Securities.
The Indenture contained an exception to the Restricted Payment covenant
permitting O&M to make additional Investments constituting Restricted Payments

Restricted Payment for purposes of the "basket' under the Restricted Payment
covenant.
