                INGRAM MICRO REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2002 RESULTS

     SANTA ANA, Calif., Oct. 29, 2002 -- Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM), the
largest global wholesale provider of technology products and supply chain
management services, today announced financial results for the third quarter
ended Sept. 28, 2002.

     During the quarter, the company announced a comprehensive profit
enhancement program that is expected to generate $160 million of annualized
operating income improvements by the first quarter of 2004. Major-program costs
are expected to total approximately $140 million, of which approximately
two-thirds will be recorded in the second half of 2002. In the third quarter,
major-program costs charged to operating income were $45.1 million before taxes
($28.4 million net of taxes).

     Including these major-program costs, the company posted a net loss of $8.3
million or $0.06 per share, compared to a net loss of $13.3 million or $0.09
per share in the third quarter of 2001. Excluding these costs, net income was
$20.1 million or $0.13 per share - exceeding the company's guidance updated on
Sept. 18, 2002 - versus $5.4 million or $0.04 per share, excluding
reorganization costs and special items, in the comparable period last year.

     Sales totaled $5.60 billion - also surpassing the range of guidance - a
4.0 percent decline compared to the $5.83 billion one year ago, but a 4.6
percent increase sequentially.

     "As we emphasized in last month's announcement of our profit enhancement
plan, we intend to achieve best-in-class status in every performance measure,"
said Kent B. Foster, chairman and chief executive officer, Ingram Micro Inc.
"Our third-quarter results bring us closer to this goal. Excluding
major-program costs, gross margin increased 18 basis points, operating margin
increased 32 basis points and operating expenses as a percent of revenues
improved 14 basis points compared to last year. Although the economic
environment continues to be challenging, we are making sustainable improvements
that create significant earnings leverage and capture opportunities for
long-term success."

Additional Third Quarter Highlights

o    Gross margin, excluding major-program costs, was 5.45 percent, compared
     with 5.27 percent one year ago and 5.48 percent in the second quarter of
     2002.

2/2/2 Ingram Micro Reports Third Quarter 2002 Results

     o    Operating expenses, excluding major-program costs, were $262.4
          million or 4.69 percent of revenues, compared with $282.2 million or
          4.83 percent of revenues in the year-ago quarter and $261.8 million
          or 4.89 percent of revenues in the previous quarter. In the prior
          year, operating expenses included approximately $5.3 million for
          goodwill amortization, which was eliminated based on new accounting
          rules adopted during the first quarter of 2002.

     o    Income from operations excluding major-program costs increased 67
          percent to $42.5 million or 0.76 percent of revenues from $25.5
          million or 0.44 percent of revenues in last year's third quarter.
          Sequentially, income from operations increased 36 percent from the
          $31.3 million or 0.58 percent of revenues reported in the second
          quarter. Including major-program costs, the company posted an
          operating loss of $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2002.

     o    Depreciation was $32.4 million, including $11.5 million of
          accelerated depreciation primarily associated with the company's
          planned facility consolidations. Capital expenditures were $9.8
          million.

     o    Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization
          (EBITDA) were $63.5 million, excluding major-program costs, compared
          with $54.7 million a year ago.

     o    Cash and cash equivalents were $387.3 million at the end of the
          quarter.

     o    Inventory was $1.50 billion, 8 percent lower than a year ago.
          Inventory turns, at 14, were stable sequentially and versus last
          year. Inventory days on hand were 26, flat sequentially but a one-day
          improvement compared to the 27 days reported a year ago.

     o    Total debt (including off-balance sheet debt of $90.0 million
          associated with accounts receivable financing programs) was $417.8
          million, 33 percent lower than the $624.4 million total debt 12
          months ago. The total debt-to-capitalization ratio (including the
          accounts receivable financing) was 20 percent versus 25 percent a
          year ago. Net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was
          $30.5 million, or 2 percent of related total capitalization.

     Thomas A. Madden, executive vice president and chief financial officer,
Ingram Micro Inc., said that Microsoft's software upgrade program, which
expired on July 31, contributed incremental revenues for the quarter but had
lower-than-average gross margins. "Our sales achievement was complemented by a
continued focus on profitability and working capital management, with key
operating and balance sheet metrics improving over last year," he added.
"Operating income, excluding major-program costs, increased sequentially and
over last year, while debt levels are the lowest in our history as a public
company. Additionally, the recent strength of the euro clouded our continued
progress in reducing operating expenses. If the exchange rates had remained at
second quarter levels, operating expenses would have declined $3.7 million
sequentially."

associated with the planned exit of facilities, consulting fees directly

and 3) the remaining $1.2 million was recorded as cost of sales.

     Major-program costs and special items during the nine-month period
included reorganization and other costs of $53.9 million, a gain on the sale of
securities of $6.5 million and a one-time, non-cash charge of $280.9 million,
net of taxes, recorded in the first quarter of 2002, for the cumulative effect
of adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets." Including all these items, the company posted a
nine-month net loss of $264.9 million. Excluding all special items, nine-month
net income was $45.8 million.

     For comparison purposes, reorganization costs and special items in the
third quarter of 2001 totaled $31.1 million before tax, including $11.7 million
of reorganization costs, $10.2 million for the write-off of capitalized
software and $9.2 million related to reserves recorded for claims filed with
one of the company's prior credit insurance companies, which was liquidated.
For the nine-month period in 2001, special items also included $19.1 million
associated with second-quarter restructuring actions and an extraordinary loss
of $2.6 million (net of taxes) on the repurchase of the company's convertible
debentures.

Outlook for the Fourth Quarter

     The following statements are based on the company's current expectations
and internal plan. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may
differ materially, as outlined in the company's periodic filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     According to the company's forecast for the fourth quarter ending Dec. 28,
2002, sales are expected to range from $5.75 billion to $5.90 billion, with net
income before any major-program expenses and other special items ranging from
$26 million to $29 million, or $0.17 to $0.19 per diluted share.

     "We still expect sequential sales to experience a normal seasonal
increase, despite the third-quarter surge in software licensing sales," said
Foster. "Our profit enhancement program is on track and generating the results
we expected so far. We are making the changes that are right for our business
while continuing to focus on profitable growth. Our commitment to shareowner
value and profitability is unwavering. We are dedicated to being the leader in
everything that we do."

Cautionary Statement for the Purpose of the Safe Harbor Provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

     The matters in this press release that are forward-looking statements are
based on current management expectations that involve certain risks which if
realized, in whole or in part, could have a material adverse effect on Ingram
Micro's business, financial condition and results of operations, including,
without limitation: the Company's failure to achieve intended cost reductions
or profit improvement objectives under its recently announced profit
enhancement program; disruptions in business operations due to reorganization
activities; potential material decline in net sales if major suppliers
significantly increase the level of business they transact directly with
end-users and/or resellers in different product categories, customer segments,
and/or geographies; potential decline in net sales and/or gross margins if the
Company is not able to pass through to customers the impact of adverse changes
in sales terms and conditions with major suppliers; potential termination of a
supply or services agreement with a major supplier or customer; dependence on
key individuals and inability to retain personnel; the continuation or
worsening of the severe downturn in economic conditions (particularly purchases
of technology products) and failure to adjust costs in a timely fashion in
response to a sudden decrease in demand; losses resulting from significant
credit exposure to reseller customers and negative trends in their businesses;
continued pricing and margin pressures and intense competition within regional
markets and internationally; future terrorist or military actions; reductions
in credit ratings and/or unavailability of adequate capital; inability to
manage future adverse industry trends; failure of information systems; interest
rate and foreign currency fluctuations; adverse impact of governmental controls
and actions and political or economic instability on foreign operations;
product supply shortages; difficulties and risks associated with integrating
operations and personnel in acquisitions; rapid product improvement and
technological change and resulting obsolescence risks; and dependence on
independent shipping companies.

     Ingram Micro has instituted in the past and continues to institute changes
to its strategies, operations and processes to address these risk factors and
to mitigate their impact on Ingram Micro's results of operations and financial
condition. However, no assurances can be given that Ingram Micro will be
successful in these efforts. For a further discussion of significant factors to
consider in connection with forward-looking statements concerning Ingram Micro,
reference is made to Exhibit 99.01 of Ingram Micro's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 29, 2001; other risks or uncertainties may be
detailed from time to time in Ingram Micro's future SEC filings.
