REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Plan Administrator of the
PSS World Medical, Inc. Employee Stock
Ownership and Savings Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the PSS WORLD MEDICAL, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP AND SAVINGS PLAN
(formerly Physician Sales & Service, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership and Savings
Plan) as of March 31, 1999 and April 2, 1998, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits, with fund information, for the
year ended March 31, 1999. These financial statements and the schedules
referred to below are the responsibility of the plan administrator. 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 audit 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 net assets available for benefits of the PSS World
Medical, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan as of March 31, 1999 and
April 2, 1998, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the
year ended March 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes as of March 31, 1999 and reportable transactions
for the year then ended are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
-2-
of 1974. The fund information in the statements of net assets available for
benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits with
fund information is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to
present the changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. The
supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.
As explained in Note 6, information provided by the custodian and presented in
the schedules of investments and reportable transactions does not disclose the
historical cost of investments. Disclosure of this information is required by
the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

PSS WORLD MEDICAL, INC.
EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP AND SAVINGS PLAN
(Formerly Physician Sales & Service, Inc.
Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES
MARCH 31, 1999 AND APRIL 2, 1998
1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following description of the PSS World Medical, Inc. Employee Stock
Ownership and Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the plan document for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees
of PSS World Medical, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("PSS" or the "Company").
The Plan was created under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code ("IRC"), which includes a qualified deferred arrangement as
described in Section 401(k) of the IRC, for the benefit of eligible
employees of the Company. The Plan also has the features of an employee
stock ownership plan ("ESOP"), whereby employee and employer contributions
are invested in PSS World Medical, Inc. common stock (the "Company's
stock"). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act ("ERISA") of 1974.
Effective January 1, 1997, the Plan was amended and restated. The Plan was
amended to provide for the merger of the Brown's Medical Supply Company
Retirement Savings Plan into this Plan effective as of January 1, 1997, and
to include other changes required in order to conform with applicable
requirements of the IRC.
On March 26, 1998, Physician Sales & Service, Inc., the plan sponsor,
changed its name to PSS World Medical, Inc. On March 26, 1998, the Company
completed a merger with Gulf South Medical Supply, Inc. ("GSMS"). The Plan
was amended to allow participation of GSMS employees effective as of May 1,
1998.
On June 1, 1998, the Plan was amended to transfer sponsorship and
responsibility for administration of the Plan to PSS and to rename the Plan
the PSS World Medical, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan.
On November 1, 1998, the Plan was amended to provide for monthly entry dates
wherein an eligible employee may enter the Plan on the first day of each
month of the plan year. In the prior year, the Plan provided for quarterly
entry dates.
-2-
Effective January 1, 1999, the plan year-end was changed to March 31 of each
year. Prior to April 2, 1998, the plan year-end was the Thursday closest to
March 31 of each year.
The Company has overall responsibility for administering the Plan. Custody
of the Plan's assets resides with Northwestern Trust and Investors Advisory
Company ("Northwestern Trust"), the plan custodian. Howard Johnson & Company
provides record-keeping services for the Plan.
Contributions
The Plan is funded through voluntary employee salary deferrals and employer
contributions. Participants can elect to defer up to 15% but not less than
1% of compensation as defined by the Plan and as limited by requirements of
the IRC.
Employer contributions are made at the discretion of the Company's board of
directors and are allocated based on the ratio of each eligible
participant's deferred compensation to the total deferred compensation of
all eligible participants during the plan year who are employees of the
Company as of the last day of the plan year. Employer discretionary
contributions were $0 for fiscal years ended 1999 and 1998. However, the
Plan was required to make a qualified nonelective contribution in 1999 and
1998 in the amount of $123,294 and $107,915, respectively. These
contributions are included in the accompanying financial statements as
employer contributions.
Certain contributions made to the Plan in fiscal 1999 were determined to be
in excess of allowable limits under the IRC. These contributions will be
refunded to the participants subsequent to year-end and are recorded in the
accompanying financial statements as excess contributions payable.
Unallocated Amounts
At March 31, 1999, the Plan had $551,558 of unallocated assets consisting of
participant contributions and qualified nonelective contributions from the
prior year. These contributions are included in the Fidelity Institutional
Cash money market fund at March 31, 1999 in the accompanying statements of
net assets available for benefits and other in the statements of changes in
net assets available for benefits, with fund information.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions and the
earnings thereon. Participants are vested in the Company's discretionary
contributions based on years of continuous service, as defined in the Plan,
according to the following schedule:
-3-
Less than three years of service 0%
Three years but less than four years 20
Four years but less than five years 40
Five years but less than six years 60
Six years but less than seven years 80
Seven years or more 100
Nonvested portions of the Company's discretionary contributions are
forfeited as of an employee's termination date and are used to reduce future
Company contributions. At March 31, 1999 and April 2, 1998, forfeited
nonvested accounts totaled approximately $25,977 and $19,000, respectively.
Benefits
Upon retirement, death, disability, or other severance of employment, a
participant or his/her beneficiary may elect to receive an amount equal to
the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account.
Balances in participant accounts are paid in a single lump sum or in equal
annual installments, at the election of the participant, over a period not
extending past the participant's life expectancy or the joint life
expectancy of the participant and his or her designated beneficiary.
Balances in the ESOP accounts are generally distributed in shares of the
Company's stock (with fractional shares paid in cash) to the participant, by
direct transfer to the participant's individual retirement account, or to
the plan of the participant's new employer.
Participant Accounts
Each participant's account is credited with his/her contributions, his/her
share of the Company's discretionary contribution, and an allocation of plan
earnings. Allocations of earnings are based on the proportion that each
participant's account balance bears to the total of all participant account
balances. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the vested
portion of the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.
Investment Options
Participants may direct their contributions and any related earnings into
seven investment options. Participants may change their investment elections
monthly and make transfers among funds. Participants may not direct the
investment of the Company's discretionary contributions. Under the terms of
the Plan, employer contributions are invested in the nonparticipant-directed
PSS World Medical, Inc. Stock Fund. A description of each investment option
as of March 31, 1999, is provided below:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual
basis of accounting. The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Plan's
management to use estimates and assumptions that affect the accompanying
financial statements and disclosures. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded as earned on the accrual basis of accounting.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Investment Valuation
Investments of the Plan are stated at fair value. Securities traded on a
national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on
the last business day of the plan year. The Company's common stock as of
March 31, 1999 and April 2, 1998 is valued at its quoted market price as
listed on the NASDAQ National Market under the ticker symbol "PSSI."
Net Appreciation (Depreciation) in Fair Value of Investments
Net realized gains and losses from the sales of investments and the changes
in the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) are recorded in the
accompanying statement of changes in net assets available for benefits, with
fund information, as net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of
investments.
Administrative Expenses
All administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company.
3. RECEIVABLES
Accrued investment income as of March 31, 1999 primarily represents
investment income earned by the Kaufmann fund during plan year 1999 but not
recorded by Northwestern Trust until subsequent to year-end.
During plan year 1998, a duplicate distribution was made to a participant.
The distributed shares were retrieved and redeposited into the Plan on
August 28, 1998. The
-6-
receivables-other at April 2, 1998 represents the fair market value of the
shares on that date.
During plan year 1996, a duplicate distribution was made to a participant.
The distributed shares were retrieved and will be redeposited into the Plan
subsequent to year-end. The fair market value of the shares at March 31,
1999 was approximately $161,110 and is included in the receivables-other in
the accompanying financial statements.
4. TAX STATUS
On June 3, 1997, the Plan, as amended and restated, received a favorable
determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service. Although the Plan
has been amended since receiving this letter, the plan administrator and
management believe that the Plan, as amended and restated, is designed and
being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
Therefore, management believes that the Plan is qualified and the related
trust continues to be tax-exempt.
5. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate
the Plan subject to the provision of ERISA. In the event of plan
termination, participants will become fully vested in their account
balances.
6. INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE CUSTODIANS
Disclosure of historical cost information with regard to certain plan
investments is required to be presented in the schedules of assets held for
investment purposes and reportable transactions (Schedules I and II) in
accordance with the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting
and Disclosure under ERISA. Due to the record-keeping systems maintained by
the custodian, certain of this information cannot be provided.
7. RELATED PARTIES
The Plan owns 2,123,338 shares of the Company's stock at March 31, 1999
which represents approximately 3% of the outstanding common stock of the
Company at that date. Transactions in the stock of the Company are reported
in Schedule II and represent party-in-interest transactions.
8. RECONCILIATION TO FORM 5500
As of March 31, 1999 and April 2, 1998, the Plan had $30,216 and $143,290,
respectively, of pending distributions to participants who elected
distributions from the Plan. These
-7-
amounts are recorded as a liability in the Plan's Form 5500; however, these
amounts are not recorded as a liability in the accompanying statements of
net assets available for benefits in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The following table reconciles net assets available for benefits per the
financial statements to the Form 5500 as filed by the Company for the years

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Effective August 1, 1999, record-keeping responsibilities were transferred
from Howard Johnson & Company to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. In
addition, effective August 1, 1999, custody of the Plan's noncompany stock
assets was transferred from Northwestern Trust to The Chase Manhattan Bank.
Northwestern Trust will remain the custodian and trustee of the PSS common
stock (both participant and nonparticipant-directed), held in the Plan.
During October 1998, the Company acquired Tri Star Imaging Systems, Inc.
("TriStar"). TriStar sponsored the TriStar Employee Stock Ownership and
Savings Plan ("TriStar ESOP"). On March 31, 1999, the TriStar ESOP was
renamed to the PSS World Medical, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan and
amended to allow participation of all PSS World Medical, Inc. employees in
the plan. Effective August 1, 1999 or as soon as practicable thereafter, the
Plan was amended to provide for the merger of the TriStar ESOP
(approximately $2.0 million of net assets available for benefits) into this
Plan. As of the date of the merger, debt outstanding related to the purchase
of common stock of the Company is approximately $2.6 million and
approximately 150,000 shares are outstanding that remain unallocated. In
addition, the Plan was amended to provide for the merger of the PSS/Taylor
Medical Profit Sharing Plan (approximately $3.5 million of net assets
available for benefit) effective as of December 31, 1999.
