DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE Definitive Proxy Statement of Computer Integration Corp. for the 1997 Annual Meeting of Stockholders Incorporated in Part III ================================================================================ 2 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL The Company (which term includes Computer Integration Corp. and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, CIC Systems, Inc., hereafter "CICS") is one of the largest volume resellers of microcomputers, workstations and related products, services and solutions to large and medium-sized corporations, federal, state and local government entities and colleges and universities in the United States. The Company distributes a broad range of microcomputer-related products, services, and solutions from major hardware manufacturers and software developers such as Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP"), Compaq Computer Corporation ("Compaq"), Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation ("Sun"), Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc. ("Toshiba"), International Business Machines ("IBM"), Lexmark International ("Lexmark"), NEC Technologies, Inc. ("NEC"), 3COM, Inc. ("3COM"), Oracle Corporation ("Oracle"), Netscape Communications Corporation ("Netscape"), Sterling Commerce, Inc. ("Sterling"), Novell, Inc. ("Novell") and Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft"). The Company is one of the largest resellers of computer products manufactured by HP in the United States and during the year ended June 30, 1997 ("Fiscal 1997"), sales of HP products accounted for approximately 67% of the Company's net sales. The Company has experienced rapid growth. On March 30, 1993, the Company acquired Copley Systems Corporation ("Copley") of Westwood, Massachusetts. Effective July 1, 1994, the Company acquired Dataprint, Inc. ("Dataprint") of Charlotte, North Carolina, and effective July 1, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Cedar Computer Center, Inc. ("Cedar") of Des Moines, Iowa (the "Cedar Acquisition"). At the time of their acquisitions, Copley and Dataprint were two of the largest dealers of HP computer products in the northeastern and southeastern United States, respectively. Cedar was one of the largest dealers of HP computer products in the midwestern and western United States. Cedar's products complemented the Company's existing product lines and increased the Company's market share of Compaq products. Net sales of the Company increased from $103.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 to $417.5 million in Fiscal 1997. The microcomputer industry has grown dramatically over the past several years as a result of equipment price reductions, significant improvements in hardware performance and software applications, increased use of microcomputers by governments and businesses and increased product familiarity by end users. The microcomputer distribution industry has experienced related growth in the use of wholesale distribution channels by manufacturers for the distribution of their products. The Company has distinguished itself from its competitors by focusing primarily on the direct delivery of personal computer ("PC") hardware, peripherals and software, from selected manufacturers, to a broad range of customers through a low-cost, efficient method of distribution. The Company configures PCs and printers with memory, operating systems and software at its distribution centers in Westwood, MA and Charlotte, NC. Management believes that the Company's focus on a limited number of manufacturers, its expertise with their product lines, commitment to servicing its customers, and efficient distribution and delivery of products provide the Company a competitive advantage and enable it to operate with relatively low operating costs. The Company's operating strategy is to (i) increase customer loyalty through the offering of a full array of services and excellent product delivery, (ii) increase its market share of products of selected manufacturers such as HP, Compaq, and Sun, (iii) grow its nationwide sales and distribution network and its tele-sales operations, (iv) expand its systems integration and support services, and (v) strengthen its professional and solution services. The Company may acquire other companies whose products and services complement the Company's existing products and services, including both resellers and providers of systems integration and other support services. In September, 1997 the Company announced a new logistics strategy and consolidation of headquarters functions into a new office in Charlotte, NC. The Company expects that these actions will allow it to be more responsive to its customers and improve the quality, efficiency, and timeliness of the products and services it provides. The new logistics strategy will have two elements: i) outsourcing of its distribution, warehousing and 3 configuration for all non-HP products which have been handled by the Company and ii) consolidating its warehouse and configuration operations from its existing facilities in Westwood, MA and Charlotte, NC to a new facility in Charlotte, NC. The strategy will be implemented in stages with all elements expected to be completed by December 31, 1997. The Company's headquarters functions, which are currently performed in both Westwood and Charlotte, will be consolidated into a new headquarters facility in Charlotte. The personnel headquartered in Charlotte will include its Executive Officers, and its Finance and Accounting, Purchasing, Marketing, and Information Systems departments. The Company will maintain its Northeast Regional Headquarters and its professional services, customer support, human resources departments, and certain other departments in an office in a Boston suburb. Most of this consolidation is expected to be completed by December 31, 1997. INDUSTRY Significant technological advances have transformed the microcomputer industry during the past ten years. Once dominated by several large manufacturers, the market now consists of several hundred manufacturers offering products ranging from hand-held computers to sophisticated UNIX-based workstations. During the same period, demand for microcomputers and related products has increased substantially, as a result of several factors, including: (i) decreases in the prices of microcomputers, peripherals and software, primarily as a result of intense competition among manufacturers, retailers and resellers; (ii) improvements in microcomputer hardware performance and development of new software applications; (iii) increased use of microcomputers by business, government and education institutions; and (iv) the development of industry standards and component compatibility. While the technology and level of product sophistication continue to improve, the cost of products has continued to decline. Over the last several years, the industry has experienced aggressive price reductions by personal computer manufacturers which have exerted additional pressure on the profit margins of all manufacturers and distributors. However, the lower prices have also stimulated demand, resulting in increased sales to both existing and first-time buyers. In addition, as user familiarity with microcomputers has increased, demand for more sophisticated hardware, software and related products has increased the average total purchase price for personal computer systems. As the microcomputer products industry has grown, parallel growth has occurred in the microcomputer products distribution industry in response to increased demand for products and the increased use of wholesale distribution channels by manufacturers. Microcomputer products are delivered to the ultimate consumer through a combination of distribution channels including manufacturers, wholesale distributors, aggregators and resellers. Wholesale distributors and aggregators sell directly to resellers. Resellers, such as the Company, sell directly to consumers, including corporations, government entities, education institutions, small and medium-sized businesses and individuals; integrate computer systems; and provide technical support services. There are various categories of resellers, including retailers such as computer superstores and office supply chains; mail-order firms; and systems integrators. The larger computer manufacturers such as HP, Compaq and IBM, historically, have required resellers to purchase their products from an affiliated aggregator or designated distributors or directly from such manufacturers. The Company purchases the majority of the products it sells, including HP products, directly from manufacturers and purchases the balance of such products, including Compaq, Sun and IBM, from aggregators and distributors. Another product distribution model which competes with the Company is the "manufacturer direct" model. Dell and Gateway have been the leaders in this area offering products via a single toll free 800 telephone number. Traditionally, this distribution model has fulfilled a small business and individual consumer niche. Over the past year, both companies have made great strides into the larger business community. With commercial sales well into the billions, this type of product fulfillment will increasingly be a competitive threat. The Company believes, however, that many customers will continue to prefer the face-to-face sales approach. Due to significant changes in technology, the industry has experienced rapid product obsolescence. The average life cycle of personal computers and peripherals before enhanced models are available is approxi- 2 4 mately six months. As technology advances, customers generally desire to purchase the newest and fastest products to gain a competitive advantage. Therefore, inventory management is critical to profitability. Technological advances in the microcomputer industry typically result in increased demand for the products sold by the Company. For example, Windows 95(TM), an operating system software introduced by Microsoft, has generated increased sales of memory chips, hard drives, new computers and 32-bit software, to make existing hardware systems compatible with the new operating system and to upgrade existing hardware systems to take advantage of all of the features of the new operating system. The networking segment of the microcomputer industry is also currently experiencing rapid growth. In addition to increased purchases of local and wide area networks by the Company's target customers, new, previously undeveloped markets may also be created by developments such as the Internet, an informal world-wide network of proprietary computer networks and individuals interconnected by various telecommunications systems. In recent years, companies such as Oracle Corporation, Sybase, Inc., and Informix Software Corp. have generated several billion dollars in annual revenues by selling and developing tools which have enabled companies to reduce their technical staff, upgrade their computer equipment and commensurately reduce operating expenses by increasing the efficiency of their management information systems. In addition, hardware manufacturers have developed products to interface with other hardware systems. These trends in the microcomputer industry have created additional demand and markets for the products sold by the Company. STRATEGY The Company's long-term objective is to become one of the leading resellers and systems integrators in the United States in terms of sales volume of microcomputers, work stations and related products and services. The Company's business strategy is to: -- Build customer loyalty and satisfaction by offering a full array of services and excellent product delivery; -- Increase its market share of products of selected manufacturers such as HP, Compaq, IBM and Sun; -- Expand its nationwide sales and distribution network and its tele-sales operations; -- Expand its systems integration and support services; and -- Expand its professional and solutions offerings. Building Customer Loyalty and Satisfaction. The Company believes that the development of long-term relationships with its customers will encourage repeat purchases and foster overall customer satisfaction. Management believes that the key to building customer loyalty is providing products and services, in a timely fashion, which meet customers' technological and organizational needs. The Company has assembled a dedicated sales team which is knowledgeable, continuously trained and kept current on the products and services offered by the Company and their application to specific customer needs. The Company's sales force is supported by a strong technical staff whose expertise in the Company's product lines enables the Company to efficiently and timely process customers' orders, configure computer systems, deliver products, and provide consultation and technical support services. The Company has approximately 16,000 active customers. During the past year, the Company has committed increased resources and emphasis on services such as toll-free ordering and technical support, direct Internet communications with customers and enhanced product warranty programs, all of which are designed to further enhance customer loyalty and satisfaction. Increase in Market Share of Products from Selected Manufacturers. The Company primarily sells products from a limited number of manufacturers. The Company's success has been attributable, in large part, to the success of its low cost distribution system for HP products and its expertise in selling products manufactured by Sun. The Company will continue to concentrate on sales of those products, but will also evaluate its product line in order to emphasize sales of those products that make the greatest contribution to the Company's gross profit margins. The Company is an authorized reseller of IBM and Compaq computer products. The Company believes that increased emphasis on these product lines may also generate additional 3 5 systems integration business by introducing potential customers to the Company's expertise in integrating IBM and Compaq systems into its network connectivity solutions. National Sales and Distribution Network. The acquisitions of Copley, Dataprint and Cedar, respectively, have increased sales of the Company and its predecessor from $103.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 to $417.5 million for Fiscal 1997. Those acquisitions have positioned the Company to achieve its long-term objective by providing a nationwide network of 25 offices in 22 states for the sale and distribution of products and services. In addition to these recent acquisitions, the Company intends to continue to review potential acquisitions of companies whose products and services complement the Company's existing products and services including both resellers and providers of systems integration and other support services. Although the Company continuously reviews potential acquisition candidates, it has not entered into any agreement, understanding or commitment with respect to any additional acquisitions at this time. The Company also plans to expand its tele-sales marketing and sales activities and expects this to generate additional revenue. Expansion of Systems Integration and Support Services. Management believes that two factors will contribute to the growth of the Company's systems integration and support services business: (i) government, education and commercial needs for local and wide area networks are expanding as such end-users continue to upgrade their technology and right-size their information processing systems; and (ii) the trend toward retaining third parties for network design, configuration and integration is accelerating, particularly as a result of the reduction of in-house technical staffs. The Company intends to focus on developing computer networks that maximize the productivity of its clients' technology. The Company's expertise in networking technology permits it to integrate existing hardware and software efficiently and effectively. The Company's system integration services include physical installation, customized configuration, testing, software loading, applications training, continuing education, telephone and on-site consulting and complete maintenance and repair services. Over the past several years, the Company has redirected certain of its marketing activities in an effort to offer technical services to entities that have not purchased equipment from the Company. Over the past year, the Company increased its technical services support capabilities by entering into partnerships with third party service providers. Through strategic partnerships, the Company is able to augment its technical and professional services staff with leading service providers offering all services from four hour response time repair through complete wide area network management. Expand its professional and solutions offerings. The Company believes that the expansion of professional services and solutions requirements in government, education and corporate sectors has created a market need which the Company can capitalize on by formulating strategic relationships with industry-leading technology companies. These relationships have enabled the Company to provide a focused set of service and solution offerings in the areas of database integration and management, network and internet security, collaborative computing and interoperability in Unix and Windows NT environments. These offerings specifically include infrastructure and network encryption and network management and monitoring. The Company will continue to leverage its relationships with third party services and technical personnel to increase its professional services and solutions business and further the opportunities throughout the Company's national branches. The Company has formed an Enterprise Technology Group to focus on its professional and solutions offerings. SALES AND MARKETING The Company has historically conducted its sales operations, for both products and services, from sales offices located throughout the United States. The Company is organized into five national regions: the Northeast, with headquarters in metropolitan Boston (Westwood), Massachusetts; the Southeast, with headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina; the Central East, with its headquarters in metropolitan Washington, DC; the Midwest, with headquarters in metropolitan Minneapolis, Minnesota; and the West, with headquarters in Denver, Colorado. The Company will continue to conduct decentralized sales activities throughout the United States, but will centralize marketing activities at the five regional headquarters. In each sales office, the Company will maintain specific sales groups that specialize in serving some or all of the corporate, government and education markets. The Company intends to hire additional sales and technical 4 6 service personnel for its sales offices, relocate employees as necessary to meet the Company's personnel requirements and increase the productivity of its existing sales and technical staff. The Company markets its products and services directly to large and medium-sized end-user customers in the corporate, government and education markets. The Company believes that this large account sales approach is a highly effective method for distributing, serving and supporting large end-user customers by providing name brand product assortment and low-cost distribution and technical service capabilities, while delivering a high level of local customer service and support. In addition, the Company has established a marketing program directed at currently inactive customers and educates salespeople on features of new product lines which are currently offered by the Company but have not yet generated significant sales. Certain of the Company's major suppliers provide marketing and advertising credits or allowances, the amount of which is based on a percentage of purchases made by the Company. Such arrangements typically allow the Company, at its discretion, to participate in various advertising campaigns and marketing strategies and subsequently seek reimbursement for all or a portion of the related costs. However, the Company must expend advertising or marketing funds before suppliers will allow the utilization of advertising or marketing credits. The total amount of such credits funded by the suppliers by means of credits in Fiscal 1997 was less than 1.0% of the Company's net sales. CUSTOMERS The Company has two major target customer groups: (i) large and medium-sized corporations and (ii) federal, state and local governments and their various divisions (the "government market") and colleges and universities. The Company maintains specialty marketing groups to focus specifically on the corporate, government and education markets. The Company believes that such specialty groups have made the Company more knowledgeable about specific industry needs, thereby allowing it to become more responsive in providing desired products and services. During Fiscal 1997, no single customer accounted for more than 10.0% of the Company's net sales. PRODUCTS AND MANUFACTURERS Product Selection. The Company distributes a broad range of microcomputer-related products including printers, desk top computers, workstations, lap-top computers, peripherals and software. Peripherals include printers, plotters, modems, storage devices and memory. Substantially all of the Company's products are purchased from suppliers located in the United States. The Company's main products are printers made by HP; Intel-based desk top computers made by HP and Compaq; UNIX-based workstations made by Sun and HP; lap-top computers made by HP, Compaq and Toshiba; microcomputing peripherals, other than printers, made by HP; software developed by Microsoft, Sun, Netscape, Oracle, and Sterling; and networking products developed by Sun. The Company evaluates its product assortment based on technological advances and market demand for information technology products. The Company also continuously evaluates its existing product lines to determine whether such products are achieving their market potential. If sales volume declines with respect to a particular product, or a product is determined to be obsolete, of poor quality or is subject to delays in delivery, the product is discontinued. The Company obtains the majority of the products its sells from its major supplier, HP. During Fiscal 1997 and Fiscal 1996, 67.0% and 65.0%, respectively, of the Company's net sales were derived from products manufactured by HP. The Company purchases its other products from a number of distributors. During Fiscal 1997 products from one distributor accounted for 13% of the Company's net sales (the "Primary Distributor"). Supplier Agreements. The Company has resale agreements with most of its suppliers, which, in the opinion of management, reflect terms and conditions customarily used by each manufacturer. With the exception of its agreement with HP, the Company's distribution agreements generally allow distribution of products on a non-exclusive basis with no geographic restrictions. Such agreements usually contain provisions 5 7 that allow either party to terminate the agreement, without cause, upon 30 to 60 days notice and do not restrict the Company from selling competing products from different manufacturers. In addition, such agreements typically provide the Company the right to terminate or curtail sales of one product line in favor of another product line as a result of technological change, pricing considerations, customer demand or supplier distribution policy. The Company's current resale agreement with HP has a one-year term and expires on February 28, 1998. The agreement allows either party to terminate the agreement without cause upon 30 days written notice, or with cause upon 15 days written notice. The agreement authorizes the Company, on a non-exclusive basis, to sell HP personal computers, peripherals and other computer-related products in those metropolitan areas in the United States in which the Company has office locations. Some specific HP products have no geographical resale restrictions and may be sold anywhere in the United States. The Company may resell HP products to any education institution in the United States and to any state government if the Company has an office in such state. The Company's current agreement with its Primary Distributor has a one-year term expiring April 4, 1998. The agreement allows either party to terminate with or without cause on 30 days notice. Since August 1994, the total combined purchases of HP products by the Company have qualified it for the Level II Discount. The Level II Discount is currently available to HP distributors who have attained gross purchases of HP products of at least $135 million during a contract year. Qualification for the Level II Discount enables the Company to purchase HP products at the lowest available cost. The Company's total purchases of HP products for the contract year ending February 28, 1998 are expected to substantially exceed $135 million. Copley became an authorized, non-exclusive, reseller of Sun hardware and software products in February 1990. In January 1994, the Company entered into an exclusive sales agent agreement with Sun for the sale and marketing of Sun products in the education marketplace in New England, including Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island and Eastern Massachusetts. Such agreement covers grades K through 12 and universities, with the exception of certain designated universities to which Sun sells directly. Most of the Company's U.S. suppliers, including HP and Sun, provide price protection, by way of credits, against price reductions by the supplier between the time of the initial sale to the Company and the Company's subsequent sale to its customers. Historically, credits, refunds or other payments to which the Company has been entitled by reason of price protection have offset most of any inventory write-downs the Company has made as a result of such price reductions. The Company believes that its relationships with its suppliers are excellent. Through its participation in supplier-dealer councils, committees and conferences, the Company enhances relationships with its suppliers by advising them on products and customer preferences. The Company also assists its suppliers in developing marketing programs and offers suppliers the opportunity to provide customer seminars. CUSTOMER SERVICES The Company offers a wide range of technical and customer support services, including hardware configuration, software installation, CPU burn-in (product testing), project management and training. Before any project begins, the Company assembles a project team which consists of several client representatives. All project details are agreed upon in advance and referenced in a project contract. In addition, control and project reporting procedures are established. Prior to the shipment of any equipment from one of the Company's distribution centers or one of its distribution or aggregation partners, technical personnel perform as much of the necessary configurations, software installation and CPU burn-in as is possible to minimize installation and service expenses charged to its customers or incurred by the Company. In addition to providing initial technical and support services, the Company also offers on-going technical and support services on all products, including training, telephone support, including toll-free 800 numbers, hardware and software support contracts which require the Company to dispatch technical personnel to the customers' offices, and consulting. The Company provides warranty repair work at customers' offices for all 6 8 hardware it sells and also offers extended warranties for many of the products it sells. The Company anticipates that depot warranty work (returns of defective equipment directly to the Company, which is then repaired by the Company at the expense of the equipment manufacturer) is likely to increase due to the equipment configuration of its customers' network environments, the convenience of the Company's repair facilities and the Company's ability to repair equipment in an efficient and timely manner. The Company has entered into strategic relationships with third parties who provide some of these services on behalf of the Company. The microcomputer industry is characterized by the existence of numerous hardware and software systems utilizing different, and often incompatible, operating components. The Company provides systems integration services which focus on developing computer environments that maximize the efficient utilization of its clients' equipment, platforms, applications, protocols, user preferences and ultimate project output. A systems integrator offers extensive technical background and expertise in the development of computer environments that coordinate a client's existing hardware and software to maximize efficient equipment utilization in a user-friendly manner. The Company's engineers and consultants provide advice and technical assistance with respect to office automation, internets and intranets, electronic publishing, image processing, relational databases, database publishing, network integration, wide-area networking, right-sizing and application integration. The Company's staff provides five primary areas of support to its systems integration clients: connectivity, networking, consulting, project management, and configuration and installation services. Such support is provided in the form of hardware maintenance and warranty repair, technical inquiry assistance via telephone and software/systems training. DISTRIBUTION The Company typically fills its orders within 48 hours of receipt. In addition, the Company has the ability to ship products that require testing, customization or configuration within five days of receipt. The Company also coordinates product "rollouts" for customers which involve shipping to a customer's determined schedule over a period of weeks or months. Upon request, the Company provides expedited delivery via an overnight or courier service for an additional cost. The Company performs the majority of its testing, customization and configuration at its locations in Westwood, Massachusetts, and Charlotte, North Carolina. As described above, the Company has announced that it will be consolidating these functions into a new facility in Charlotte, North Carolina. (See Business -- General.) The Company's order processing and inventory controls allow the Company to forecast and order products only when needed. The Company communicates electronically and by fax with its suppliers to further reduce overhead. Additionally, the Company manages its inventory levels by providing for the "drop shipment" of products directly from certain manufacturers or distributors to customers. Drop shipments reduce the Company's physical handling, inventory, storage, and shipping costs and allow the Company to expedite delivery of products to customers. This inventory management technique enables the Company to offer a greater range of products without increasing inventory requirements. The Company has historically attempted to maximize product availability and delivery response times while minimizing inventory levels to reduce the risk of product obsolescence and price fluctuations. Most products are stocked to provide only a 10 to 30 day supply. During Fiscal 1997, the Company turned its inventory an average of 19 times per year compared to 17 times in Fiscal 1996. The Company's management information system provides perpetual inventory management and real-time transaction processing for all product receipts and shipments. The Company conducts frequent physical inventory cycle counts and reconciles such inventory to the Company's perpetual inventory records. Historically, the Company's inventory shrinkage has been less than 0.5% of net sales. MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS The Company's operations are computerized with respect to inventory, accounts receivable, accounts payable, order entry, payroll and general ledger software systems, and such information is continuously updated. Each of the Company's locations operate on an interactive basis. The Company utilizes its 7 9 management information systems ("MIS") to monitor inventory levels and sales trends, assist in purchase decisions, monitor customer credit status and provide product availability, order status and pricing information to customers. The Company has allocated approximately $2.0 million to be expended in the year ended June 30, 1998 ("Fiscal 1998") to significantly upgrade its MIS, including installation of a new integrated software system for order entry, purchasing, inventory, distribution and accounting, equipping virtually all sales executives and systems engineers with HP laptop computers, upgrading desktop personal computer hardware and software, and enhancing its company-wide electronic mail system. Management believes that these upgrades are necessary for the Company to take advantage of technological MIS improvements, reduce ongoing operating costs, and enhance its competitive position. The Company uses the Internet to enhance customer support and interbusiness correspondence. Internet access provides a convenient communication device enabling customers to contact their sales, customer service and technical support representatives via text-based messages. EMPLOYEES As of June 30, 1997, the Company employed 400 full-time employees, consisting of 54 in management (including executive officers), 83 in administration, 130 in sales and marketing, 46 in technical support and engineering, 65 in customer service, and 22 in warehouse operations. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be excellent. The Company has no employees who are represented by unions. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS The Company does not have any patents or material trademarks and does not consider patents or trademarks to be significant to its operations. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company currently maintains its executive and main administrative offices in Charlotte, North Carolina and Westwood, Massachusetts. These also serve as the primary sales offices and distribution centers for the Company's five regions. The Company distributes most of the products that it sells from these two distribution centers. The Company also has 25 sales offices in 22 states, leasing approximately 185,000 total square feet at an annual base rent of approximately $1.9 million. The Company believes that its current facilities are adequate for its current level of operations and foreseeable needs and has the physical capacity at most locations to substantially increase its sales staff. As described above, the Company has announced plans to consolidate its headquarters and distribution functions in Charlotte. (See Business -- General.) ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On May 22, 1997, MCI Systemhouse, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the Circuit Court for Palm Beach County, Florida seeking contractual damages in the amount of $2,036,882, plus accrued interest. The litigation concerns consulting services rendered to the Company by MCI's predecessor, SHL Systemhouse Corp., in connection with the Company's Management Information Systems. See "Business -- Management Information Systems". The Company has filed an answer and counter-claim seeking return of monies previously paid under the consulting agreement and damages. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. 8 10 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The Company's Common Stock has been traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market since June 1996 under the symbol "CICC." During the year ended June 30, 1997, the high and low prices for the Common Stock were $4.75 and $.6875, respectively. On September 23, 1997, the closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Nasdaq was $1.4375 per share. The number of record holders of the Common Stock as of September 23, 1997 was 14,034,810. The Company has never paid any dividends on its Common Stock. Pursuant to the revolving credit agreement between CICS and its principal lender, the ability of CICS to transfer funds to the Company, and the resulting availability of funds to the Company for the payment of dividends, is restricted and, therefore, the Company's ability to pay dividends on its Common Stock is effectively prohibited.

Includes the operating results of Copley from March 31, 1993 through June 30, 1993. (2) For the years ended June 30, 1994 and 1996, respectively, includes $509,000 and $486,000, respectively, of costs associated with public offerings. (3) For all periods presented prior to March 31, 1993, Copley was taxed as an S Corporation pursuant to Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Net income reflects a provision for income taxes as if Copley were subject to regular corporate income taxes based on the tax laws in effect during such periods. (4) Prior to its acquisition by the Company, Copley had 1,088 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Earnings per share data has not been presented for Copley for all periods presented prior to March 31, 1993, as such historical information would not be meaningful. 10 12 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL The Company began operations in 1992 with the organization of CICS, and acquired Copley on March 30, 1993 and Dataprint effective July 1, 1994. Effective July 1, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and operations of Cedar, which acquisition increased the Company's net sales, on a pro forma basis, for the year ended June 30, 1995 by 121.1%. All historical financial information relates to the Company. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS All financial results related to operations of the Company include historical results for the years ended June 30, 1997, June 30, 1996, and June 30, 1995 ("Fiscal 1997", "Fiscal 1996," and "Fiscal 1995", respectively). The pro forma information for Fiscal 1995 ("Pro Forma Fiscal 1995") relates to the Company's and Cedar's operations, combined on a pro forma basis, as if the acquisition of Cedar had occurred on July 1, 1994. The following summary tables have been presented to set forth certain income statement data, in dollars and as a percentage of net sales, to assist in the understanding of the explanation of operations for the periods ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995. The pro forma consolidated financial information does not purport to represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would have been if the acquisition had in fact occurred on such date or as of the beginning of such period.

This decrease was primarily due to a loss in customer base resulting from the distraction and lack of focus of the Company's organization associated with changes in the Company's executive management and the planned relocation to Atlanta which was announced in June 1996 and canceled in October 1996. The Company has taken various actions to refocus its employees, which has recently resulted in increased sales levels. Gross profits decreased to $39.4 million in Fiscal 1997 from $42.6 million in Fiscal 1996, a decrease of $3.2 million or 7.5%. Gross profit margins decreased to 9.4% in Fiscal 1997 compared to 9.5% in Fiscal 1996. The decrease in gross profits primarily resulted from the 7.2% decrease in sales discussed above. 11 13 Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") costs were $43.7 million in Fiscal 1997 compared to $37.6 million in Fiscal 1996. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 10.5% in Fiscal 1997 compared to 8.3% in Fiscal 1996 as explained below. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 1996, the Company recorded a charge of $2.3 million for restructuring costs associated with a planned consolidation of the Company's headquarters and certain sales and distribution facilities and relocation to Atlanta. These costs included approximately $1.7 million for severance benefits for approximately 125 affected employees, $400,000 for the write-off of property and equipment, and approximately $200,000 for lease extension and termination costs and other activities to close existing facilities. On October 30, 1996 the Company decided not to proceed with the consolidation of the Company's headquarters, sales and distribution facilities and relocation to Atlanta. It decided instead to maintain these functions in its existing facilities in Westwood, MA and Charlotte, NC. This decision primarily reflected the Company's desire to retain certain key personnel for whom relocation was not a viable option, as well as other cost considerations. Accordingly, during the second quarter of Fiscal 1997, the Company reversed approximately $1.8 million of the original $2.3 million charge for restructuring costs. The remaining restructuring accrual balance of $128,000 as of June 30, 1997 primarily represents obligations for future severance payments related to the canceled Atlanta consolidation. During Fiscal 1996 and the first half of Fiscal 1997, the Company invested approximately $4.2 million in a management information system ("MIS System") which was intended to replace the multiple systems then in use. The Company concluded that the MIS system did not provide minimum required functionality and that the costs required to achieve such functionality did not justify further investment and therefore decided to abandon this MIS System and implement an alternative solution. As a result the Company recorded a charge of approximately $4.2 million in Fiscal 1997 associated with the write-off of its investment in this MIS System ("MIS Charge"). The Company believes that a portion of this write-off was caused by the failure of consultants, previously engaged by the Company to assist with the implementation of the MIS System, to perform as required under their contracts with the Company. The Company is currently in litigation with such consultants concerning remaining amounts allegedly due under the consulting contracts. (See Item 3 Legal Proceedings.) There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in such litigation and the consolidated financial statements include these remaining amounts as liabilities. Exclusive of the above mentioned restructuring charge reversal and MIS charge, SG&A expenses were $41.3 million for Fiscal 1997, compared to $35.3 million for Fiscal 1996, an increase of $6.0 million or 17.0%. Fiscal 1997 SG&A included a charge of approximately $895,000 associated with the termination of a lease which had been executed in connection with the Company's plans to relocate to Atlanta. Excluding this and the other charges discussed previously, SG&A increased $5.1 million or 14.4% from Fiscal 1996 primarily due to higher salary, severance, and temporary help caused by high employee turnover associated with the announced, then canceled, relocation to Atlanta and changes in executive management; an enhanced telecommunications system; and additional travel expenses. Interest expense decreased to $4.5 million for Fiscal 1997 from $4.8 million during Fiscal 1996, as a result of decreased outstanding indebtedness due to lower levels of inventory associated with improved inventory turnover and the 7.2% decrease in net sales. As a result of the foregoing, the Company's net loss increased by approximately $5.6 million to $6.0 million in Fiscal 1997 from a loss of approximately $403,000 in Fiscal 1996. FISCAL 1996 COMPARED TO PRO FORMA FISCAL 1995 Net sales for Fiscal 1996 were $450.0 million compared to $462.5 million for Pro Forma Fiscal 1995, a decrease of $12.5 million or 2.7%. This decrease was primarily due to reduced sales volume at existing locations in the Midwest acquired as a result of the Cedar Acquisition. Gross profits increased to $42.6 million in Fiscal 1996 from $40.6 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995, an increase of $2.0 million or 4.9%. Gross profit margins increased to 9.5% in Fiscal 1996 compared to 8.8% in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995 as a result of increased emphasis by the Company's sales organization on transactions 12 14 involving products with relatively higher profit margins, such as PCs, and decreased reliance on high volume, marginally profitable transactions. SG&A expenses increased by $9.2 million or 32.4% to $37.6 million in Fiscal 1996 compared to $28.4 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. The primary components of the Company's SG&A expense (66.9%) are salaries and benefits. Salaries and benefits were $25.1 million in Fiscal 1996, an increase of 19.5% or $4.1 million from Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. The majority of the increase was attributable to a 9.9% increase in employee headcount during the year to approximately 500 at June 30, 1996. This increase was a direct result of putting in place a new executive management team and increased sales representatives during the year, along with redundant positions required as a result of relocating distribution and administration functions from the Midwest to Massachusetts during the fourth quarter of 1996. In January 1996, the Company began offering health and other benefits to employees acquired in connection with the Cedar Acquisition, resulting in additional salaries and benefit costs of approximately $200,000 during Fiscal 1996. Occupancy cost, which consists of rent and related utility costs, increased 23.5% to $2.1 million in Fiscal 1996 compared to $1.7 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. This increase is primarily attributable to relocating the Company's distribution facility in the Los Angeles area to a new free standing facility, and more than doubling the size of the Company's warehouse in Westwood, MA. The balance of the increase was a result of increased rents for existing locations. Depreciation and amortization increased to $1.5 million in Fiscal 1996 from $1.2 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995, primarily as a result of increased depreciation expense related to current year additions of fixed assets. Other SG&A expenses increased $2.1 million to $6.6 million in Fiscal Year 1996 compared to $4.5 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. The increase was attributable to increased legal, professional and recruiting fees, higher than expected travel costs associated with the consolidation of distribution and administrative functions in Westwood, MA and overall higher other selling and administrative costs. During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company recorded a special charge of $2.3 million for restructuring costs associated with the planned (and subsequently canceled) relocation and consolidation of the Company's headquarters, sales and distribution facilities to Atlanta, Georgia. During Fiscal 1996, the Company incurred costs of approximately $486,000 related to expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Company's securities for a public offering which was not completed. There were no such costs in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. As a result of the foregoing, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $403,000 compared to net income of $4.3 million in Pro Forma Fiscal 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has funded its operations to date primarily through the private sale of equity securities and borrowings under its credit facility. As of June 30, 1997, the Company had cash of $1.4 million, accounts receivable of $63.9 million, working capital of $19.6 million and available funds under its credit facility of approximately $13.0 million. Net cash provided by operating activities during Fiscal 1997 was $6.3 million primarily as a result of the $6.4 million reduction in inventories and the $6.1 million increase in accounts payable, partially offset by an increase of $2.9 million in accounts receivable and $2.1 million in prepaid expenses and other assets. Net cash used in investing activities during Fiscal 1997 was approximately $1.7 million primarily as a result of purchases of office and computer equipment. Financing activities used approximately $10.9 million primarily as a result of a pay down in the outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit. On September 30, 1996, the Company amended its financing agreement with its primary lender, Congress Financial Corporation ("Congress"), effective June 30, 1996, which included an increase in the maximum available credit from $70 million to $77 million (subject to a borrowing limit based on eligible 13 15 inventory and accounts receivable) and modifications of certain financial covenants ("Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's accounts receivable and inventory and consists of a $27.5 million, 3-year term loan and a $49.5 million revolving line of credit. Interest on the Credit Facility accrues at 1.0% over the prime rate of CoreStates Bank, N.A. (effective rate of 9.5% at June 30, 1997). The Credit Facility, which is used for working capital, will expire in July 1998 and will be automatically renewable for one year at the option of Congress, upon certain terms and conditions. The Credit facility requires that the Company maintain, at all times, certain net worth and working capital levels and restricts the payment of dividends. During Fiscal 1996, the Company made net repayments of $10.0 million under the Credit Facility. At September 19, 1997, the Company had an outstanding balance under the Credit Facility of $34.2 million. During Fiscal 1997 the Company entered into an agreement with a company to finance product purchases. The amount outstanding under this agreement is included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets. In connection with this facility, the lender has a lien on the inventory financed. The Company has a $1.5 million letter of credit issued under its Credit Facility with Congress in favor of the lender. On July 23, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 6,950,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate price of $7,436,500 to various unaffiliated third parties. As a result of the sale, the buyers now hold 49.86% of the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding. The proceeds received by the Company, net of related expenses, of approximately $7.2 million were used to repay borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit. The Company's future capital requirements for operations include financing the growth of working capital items associated with sales growth including accounts receivable and inventory, upgrading management information systems, enhancing and increasing its professional services capabilities, consolidating its operations, and funding acquisitions. The Company believes that cash flow from operations, funds from the equity investment in July, 1997 as previously discussed, and borrowings under the Credit Facility will provide sufficient cash to fund its operations and meet current obligations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1998. In the event the Company expands its operations or makes acquisitions that would require funds in excess of its existing resources, it would have to seek additional debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that the Company could obtain such financing or that such financing would be available on terms acceptable to the Company. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company's capital expenditures were approximately $2.2 million, $3.4 million and $917,000, respectively. The Company has allocated approximately $2.0 million to be expected in Fiscal 1998 to significantly upgrade its MIS, including installation of a new integrated software system for order entry, purchasing, inventory, distribution and accounting, equipping virtually all sales executives and systems engineers with HP laptop computers, upgrading desktop personal computer hardware and software, and enhancing its company-wide electronic mail system. Management believes that these upgrades are necessary for the Company to take advantage of technological MIS improvements, reduce ongoing operating costs, and enhance its competitive position. In connection with the acquisition of Cedar, the Company has agreed to pay the seller, on July 2, 1998, an amount equal to the difference between the market price per share on that date for the 515,000 shares of Common Stock owned by the Seller, and $10 per share. On September 23, 1997, the closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Nasdaq was $1.4375 per share. The Company believes that such guarantee can be satisfied from cash flow from operations or borrowings under the Credit Facility. As previously discussed in Item I, in September 1997, the Company announced a new logistics strategy and consolidation of headquarters and distribution functions into new facilities in Charlotte, NC. The consolidation is expected to be completed by December 31, 1997. The Company's preliminary estimate of non-recurring costs associated with the consolidation is approximately $2 million. These costs include employee severance benefits, reimbursed employee relocation expenses, recruiting, facility relocation expenses, and the write-off of certain property and equipment. This estimate also includes the costs associated with the duplication of certain employee positions and redundant facilities during the transition period. 14 16 The Company has historically attempted to maximize product availability and delivery response times while minimizing inventory levels to reduce the risk of product obsolescence and price fluctuations. Most products are stocked to provide only a 10 to 30 day supply. During Fiscal 1997, the Company turned its inventory an average of 19 times per year compared to 17 times in Fiscal 1996. The Company's management information system provides perpetual inventory management and real-time transaction processing for all product receipts and shipments. The Company conducts physical inventory cycle counts and reconciles such inventory to the Company's perpetual inventory records. Historically, the Company's inventory shrinkage has been less than 0.5% of net sales. Most of the Company's major suppliers, including HP and Sun, provide price protection, in the form of credits, against price reductions by the supplier between the initial sale to the Company and the subsequent sale by the Company to the ultimate consumer. Credits, refunds or other payments to which the Company has been entitled to historically by reason of price protection have offset most of any inventory write-downs the Company has incurred as a result of such price reductions. Net inventory write-downs after credits or refunds by suppliers amounted to less than 0.1% of net sales for each of Fiscal 1997 and Fiscal 1996, respectively. Such suppliers accept defective merchandise returned within three to six months after shipment to the Company and its major suppliers permit the Company to return slow-moving current inventory in exchange for other inventory, subject to certain volume limitations. The Company attempts to control losses on credit sales by closely monitoring customers' creditworthiness through its credit department, which maintains detailed, computerized, current information on each customer's payment history and other relevant credit information. The Company also subscribes to a national credit reporting service that provides credit rating information regarding customers on an on-line basis. Bad debt expense as a percentage of net sales was less than 0.5% for each of Fiscal 1997 and 1996. This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Statements indicating that the Company "expects," "estimates," or "believes" are forward-looking as are all other statements concerning future financial results, product offerings or other events that have not yet occurred. There are several important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements contained herein. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the growth rates of the Company's market segments; the position of the Company's products in those segments; the Company's ability to effectively manage business, and the growth of its business, in a rapidly changing environment; the timing of new product introductions; inventory risks due to changes in market conditions; the competitive environment in the computer industry; the Company's ability to establish successful strategic relationships; and general economic conditions. Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by cautionary statements in this paragraph and elsewhere in this report, and in other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in the Company's Registration Statements on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-33417 and 333-84472), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 1997, including the risk factors sections thereof. SEASONAL FACTORS Because of the broad range of markets served by the Company, the Company's sales have not historically been subject to seasonal fluctuations. INFLATION Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's operations as technological advances and industry competition have generally caused microcomputer equipment prices to decline. The Company has experienced few price increases and, historically, has passed them on to its customers, since prices charged by the Company are generally not fixed by long-term contracts. 15 17 ITEM 8.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Computer Integration Corp. (CIC), and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, CIC Systems, Inc. (CICS)(collectively the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company is a reseller of microcomputers, workstations and related products, services and solutions to large and medium-sized corporations, federal, state and local governmental entities and colleges and universities throughout the United States. The Company distributes a broad range of microcomputer related products from major hardware manufacturers and software developers which include Hewlett-Packard Company (see Note 3); Compaq Computer Corporation; Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation; Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc.; International Business Machines; Lexmark International; NEC Technologies, Inc.; 3COM, Inc.; Oracle Corporation; Netscape Communications Corporation; Sterling Commerce, Inc.; Novell, Inc.; and Microsoft Corporation. Concentration of Credit Risk Accounts receivable are primarily from business, governmental, and educational customers located throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts at a level which management believes is sufficient to cover probable credit losses. Inventories Inventories, which consist of finished goods available for sale, are valued at the lower of average cost or market value. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue upon the shipment of ordered merchandise and as services are rendered. Furniture and Office Equipment Furniture and office equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from three to seven years. Goodwill Goodwill related to acquired businesses is being amortized on the straight-line method over a 20-year period. The Company, at each balance sheet date, evaluates the recovery of the carrying amount of goodwill by determining if any impairment indicators are present. These indicators include duplication of resources resulting from acquisitions, income derived from businesses acquired and other factors. If this review indicates that goodwill will not be recoverable, as principally determined based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the entity over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying value of the goodwill is reduced by the estimated shortfall of future cash flows. 22 24 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of cash approximates its fair value. The fair value of the Company's notes payable and capital lease obligations are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying value of these instruments approximates fair value at June 30, 1997 and 1996. Earnings Per Common Share Earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by the weighted average of common shares and, if dilutive, common share equivalents outstanding during the periods. Common share equivalents represent the potentially dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of certain outstanding stock options and warrants. The effect of convertible preferred stock is not included in the calculation since it does not have a dilutive effect on the earnings per common share. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as discussed in Note 6, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. Accounting Pronouncement to be Adopted in Future Periods In March 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings Per Share. SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures that have publicly held common stock or common stock equivalents to present both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. The presentation of basic EPS replaces the presentation of primary EPS currently required by APB Opinion No. 15, Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is calculated as income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS (previously referred to as fully diluted EPS) is calculated using the "if converted" method for convertible securities and the treasury stock method for options and warrants as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 15. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 128 in fiscal 1998 will have a significant impact on the Company's reported EPS. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 consolidated financial statements to conform with the 1997 presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 23 25 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 2. ACQUISITIONS Effective July 1, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the trade payables and certain other liabilities of Cedar Computer Center, Inc. (Cedar), an Iowa corporation, for a combination of cash, notes, and securities of the Company. The purchase price for the net assets of Cedar and related acquisition costs consisted of approximately $9,865,579 in cash, $3,760,000 of subordinated promissory notes, $515,000 representing the fair value at the date of acquisition of 515,000 shares of the Company's common stock and $3,731,427 representing the fair value of the Company's guarantee that the common stock will have a market value of $10 per share at the end of three years following the sale. The fair value of the Company's guarantee is included in additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets. Any payments required to be made by the Company under the guarantee will first be applied against the amount recorded and any excess will be charged against earnings in the period paid. The cash portion of the purchase price was obtained from the Company's revolving credit facility from Congress Financial Corporation (New England). The total purchase price of $17,872,006 was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate amount assigned to the identifiable net assets acquired was recorded as an intangible asset (goodwill) which is being amortized using the straight-line method over 20 years. The initial allocation of the purchase price is summarized as follows (in thousands): Accounts receivable........................................ $ 40,773 Inventories................................................ 16,052 Furniture and office equipment............................. 765 Prepaid expenses........................................... 156 Accounts payable and accrued expenses...................... (44,063) -------- Fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed.. 13,683 Goodwill................................................... 4,189 -------- $ 17,872 ======== The asset purchase agreement related to the acquisition of Cedar provided for adjustment of the purchase price based on the ultimate realization of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities. During fiscal 1996, as a result of such adjustments, the asset purchase agreement was amended to reflect a reduction of $2,025,016 in the net assets acquired and a corresponding reduction in the purchase price of $1,682,780 through a reduction of subordinated seller notes. Goodwill increased by $342,236 as a result of this purchase price adjustment. At the time Cedar was acquired, management, with the approval of the Board of Directors, was assessing the activities conducted at Cedar to determine which functions, if any, were duplicative and should be eliminated. This assessment, which was completed in the second quarter of fiscal 1996, resulted in a plan to exit certain activities conducted by Cedar and resulted in the accrual of employee termination benefits of $311,000, write-off of assets no longer required of $200,000, lease termination payments of $52,000 and other costs associated with the facility closing of $237,000. A corresponding increase in goodwill of $800,000 was recorded. While these actions were substantially completed at June 30, 1996, approximately $500,000 remained to be paid and was included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1996. 24 26 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The results of operations of Cedar have been included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations since the effective date of acquisition, July 1, 1995. The following summarizes unaudited pro forma results of operations for the year ended June 30, 1995 assuming the acquisition occurred at July 1, 1994 (in thousands except per share data). Sales............................................. $462,543 Net income........................................ 4,255 Net income per common share....................... .57 The pro forma results have been prepared for analysis only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which would have resulted had the combination been in effect on the date indicated or which may result in the future. Effective July 1, 1994, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of Dataprint, Inc. (Dataprint), a value added reseller of microcomputers and related equipment and products, in a transaction that was accounted for as a purchase business combination. The purchase price of $9,650,000 and acquisition costs of $260,439 were paid with cash of $1,371,089, issuance of notes payable of $250,000 and $1,000,000 in convertible preferred stock of CIC, direct proceeds from CICS's revolving line of credit of $7,100,000 and other liabilities incurred of $189,350. The total purchase price of $9,910,439 was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate amount assigned to the net tangible assets acquired was recorded as an intangible asset (goodwill) that is being amortized using the straight-line method over 20 years. The allocation of the purchase price is summarized as follows (in thousands): Cash....................................................... $ 1,631 Accounts receivable........................................ 6,304 Inventories................................................ 4,472 Furniture and office equipment............................. 178 Prepaid expenses........................................... 18 Accounts payable and accrued expenses...................... (8,095) ------- Fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed.. 4,508 Goodwill................................................... 5,402 ------- $ 9,910 ======= Based on operating results of Dataprint for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company incurred additional purchase price of $38,000 and $462,000, respectively, related to performance against a maximum contingent earn out of $500,000. Such amounts are included in goodwill in the consolidated balance sheets. In connection with the Company's acquisition of Dataprint, the Company paid an acquisition fee of $125,000 to R.G. Farrell, Inc., a company owned and controlled by the then president of the Company. 3. INVENTORIES The Company purchases a substantial portion of its inventory from one supplier, with which the Company has a signed U.S. reseller agreement that expires on February 28, 1998. The Company purchased approximately $252,900,000 and $264,800,000 in 1997 and 1996, respectively, from this single supplier. At June 30, 1997 and 1996, amounts due to this supplier included in accounts payable were approximately $40,400,000 and $33,000,000, respectively. 25 27 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 4. BORROWINGS The Company's borrowings consist of the following: Notes Payable During 1995, the Company entered into a $31.5 million bank-credit agreement that provided a $19.0 million revolving line of credit and a $12.5 million term loan through August 5, 1998. In 1996, the amount available under such agreement was increased to $77 million and the due date was extended to July 1, 1998. The allocation between the revolving line and the term loan was $49.5 million and $27.5 million, respectively. Amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit totaled $8,716,575 and $18,746,703 at June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. These amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit are due on demand and bear interest payable at 1% over the prime rate of Corestates Bank, N.A. (9.5% effective rate at June 30, 1997). This credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's trade accounts receivable and inventory, which have a combined carrying value of approximately $81,255,000 at June 30, 1997. Under the revolving portion of the line of credit, the Company may borrow up to a maximum of $49.5 million, including a total of $15 million in the form of irrevocable letters of credit. Letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company consist of a $10 million irrevocable letter of credit issued in 1996 to a major supplier of the Company which partially secures an account payable of approximately $40.4 million at June 30, 1997 and a $1.5 million irrevocable letter of credit issued in 1997 to a finance company which partially secures amounts owed under an inventory financing facility (see inventory financing facility discussed below). The $27.5 million term note payable is discussed below. At June 30, 1997, the Company has approximately $13 million available under this credit agreement. The credit agreement prohibits the Company from paying any dividends on its common stock and requires that the Company maintain minimum levels of working capital and adjusted net worth, both as defined in the agreement. Term Note Payable As discussed above, at June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company has a $27.5 million term note payable to its principal lender. This note requires monthly interest payments of 1% over the prime rate of the Corestates Bank, N.A. (9.5% effective rate at June 30, 1997) and matures on July 1, 1998. Subordinated Notes Payable In connection with the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Cedar (see Note 2), subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,510,000 and a short-term promissory note in the principal amount of $250,000 were issued to the seller. The subordinated promissory notes are payable in four annual installments of principal and interest at an interest rate of 7.25% per annum, commencing on July 2, 1996 through July 2, 1999. The short-term promissory note was payable in six equal monthly installments of principal and interest at an interest rate of 10% per annum, and was fully satisfied at June 30, 1996. As a result of the purchase price adjustments, described in Note 2, the aggregate principal amount of the subordinated promissory notes was reduced to $1,913,000 under the same terms and conditions. Future annual principal maturities of the subordinated promissory notes for the year ended June 30 are as follows: 1998 -- $267,440; 1999 -- $671,560; 2000 -- $671,560. The notes are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment of all indebtedness of CICS to its senior lenders, secured by a pledge of 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of CICS subject to the prior security interest of CICS' senior lenders and are guaranteed by the Company. 26 28 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Inventory Financing Facility In 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with a company to finance inventory purchases from selected suppliers, with a maximum credit availability of $4.5 million. The amount outstanding under this agreement, which totaled approximately $3 million at June 30, 1997, is included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1997. The financing company has a lien on the inventory financed under this facility, and a $1.5 million irrevocable letter of credit has been issued on behalf of the Company in favor of the financing company. In addition, the agreement requires that the Company maintain a minimum level of working capital and annually profitability, both as defined in the agreement. For the year ended June 30, 1997, the Company did not satisfy the minimum level of profitability required by its inventory financing facility agreement and has been declared in default of its obligations under such agreement. However, on the condition that the Company maintain full compliance with all terms of the agreement, the financing company has agreed to forbear from exercising its right to accelerate the indebtedness and has agreed to continue to provide financing pursuant to the agreement, with a maximum credit limit of $3 million, through November 17, 1997, at which time the agreement will terminate and all amounts then outstanding will become due and payable by December 17, 1997. Management of the Company is currently involved in discussions with the finance company to replace the current facility with a new facility under mutually acceptable terms. 5.

CAPITAL STOCK On April 3, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of two new Series of cumulative, convertible, redeemable preferred stock, designated Series D and Series E. The Series D preferred stock is identical to the Company's Series A preferred stock, and Series E preferred stock is identical to the Company's Series C preferred stock, with the single exception that the mandatory conversion feature of the Series A and Series C preferred stock was modified to extend the effective date of that conversion from five to ten days after the completion of a public offering of common stock and the trading of such stock at a price equal to or greater than $4.00 per share. On May 5, 1996, the Company completed a private exchange offer with the holders of its outstanding shares of Series A and Series C preferred stock. As a result of the exchange offer, the Company issued 19,250 shares of Series D preferred stock in exchange for 19,250 outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock and 125 shares of Series E preferred stock in exchange for 125 outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock. Holders of the Series D and Series E cumulative, convertible, redeemable preferred stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, cumulative annual dividends of 9% of their respective stated values per share of $100 and $4,000, payable in cash or in kind. Such dividends are payable on January 31 and July 31. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall be cumulative, but shall not bear interest. Dividends paid during each year ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 totaled $218,250. So long as any shares of Series D and Series E preferred stock are outstanding, no dividends may be paid on the common stock or any Series of preferred 28 30 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) stock ranking junior to the Series D and Series E preferred stock, until all dividends accrued on the Series D and Series E preferred stock have been paid for the current and all prior periods. Except as, and if required by law, and as herein described, the Series D and Series E preferred stock are nonvoting. In the event the Company fails to declare and pay dividends for two consecutive Dividend Payment Dates, as defined, and for so long as such failure is continuing, the holders of a majority of each of the Series D and Series E preferred stock are entitled to vote separately as a class to elect one additional director per Series to the Board of Directors of the Company. The shares of Series D preferred stock will be convertible at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate (the Series D Conversion Rate) of 40 shares of common stock for each share of Series D preferred stock. The shares of Series E preferred stock are convertible at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate (the Series E Conversion Rate) of 4,000 shares of common stock for each share of Series E preferred stock. The shares of Series D or Series E preferred stock will automatically and mandatorily convert at the same Series D and Series E Conversion Rate, as applicable, into common stock at such time as the Company has completed a public offering of common stock and, thereafter, the common stock has traded for ten consecutive days at a bid and ask price equal to or greater than $4.00 per share. The shares of Series D and Series E preferred stock are subject to redemption by the Company, at its option, at any time and from time to time, after one year from the date of issue at a redemption price of 110% of their respective stated values of $100 and $4,000 per share of the Series D and Series E preferred stock, respectively, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends as of the date of redemption. On July 23, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 6,950,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate price of approximately $7.4 million (see Note 13). Stock Options: The Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan, as amended, permits the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options as provided in the relevant sections of the IRC. Under the plan, incentive options may be granted at prices not less than the fair market value on the date of the grant. The term of each option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the Board of Directors at the date of 29 31 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) each grant, and options are for a period of no more than ten years. A summary of stock option activity related to the 1994 Stock Option Plan, as amended, is as follows: WEIGHTED- NUMBER OF NUMBER WEIGHTED- AVERAGE SHARES OF AVERAGE EXERCISE RESERVED SHARES EXERCISE NUMBER PRICE PER FOR UNDER PRICE PER OF OPTIONS OPTION OPTIONS OPTIONS OPTION EXERCISABLE EXERCISABLE ---------- -------- --------- ----------- ----------- Balance at June 30, 1994........... 500,000 40,000 $ .66 Granted.......................... -- 460,000 1.02 Expired.......................... -- (5,000) .10 ---------- -------- Balance at June 30, 1995........... 500,000 495,000 1.00 180,000 $1.02 Additional shares reserved for grant......................... 550,000 -- Granted.......................... -- 462,750 4.00 Exercised........................

Of these options, 67,565 are currently exercisable. The remaining 811,372 options outstanding at June 30, 1997 have exercise prices ranging from $.10 to $1.56 and have a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5 years. Of these options, 571,872 are currently exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $1.12. Pro forma information regarding net income and EPS is required by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 1997 and 1996: risk-free interest rate of 6.5%; dividend yield of -0-%; volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of .775; and a weighted average expected life of the option of 3 years. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. As a result, these pro forma disclosures are not likely to be representative of the effects of applying the provisions of FASB No. 123 on reported net income for future periods since 1997 and 30 32 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 1996 reflect expense for only two and one year's vesting, respectively. The Company's pro forma information for the year ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 follows (in thousands except share related data): 1997 1996 ------- ----- Pro forma net loss........................ $(6,835) $(694) Pro forma loss per common share........... (1.02) (.15) The weighted average fair value of options granted during 1997 and 1996 is $.79 and $2.38 per share, respectively. Stock Purchase Warrants: At June 30, 1997, the Company has outstanding 55,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. These warrants, all of which are currently exercisable, have an exercise price of approximately $4.11 per share and expire in 2001. 7. COMMITMENTS Operating Leases The Company is committed through 2000 under various leases relating to facilities and equipment. Some leases have renewal clauses which may be extended, at the option of the Company, beyond their respective terms. These leases require fixed rental payments and require payments of property taxes and insurance. Rent expense for the Company relating to all of the above noncancelable lease agreements was approximately $1,927,000, $1,788,000 and $636,000 for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Included in rent expense for the year ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 is approximately $306,000 and $264,000, respectively, paid to a shareholder of the Company. At June 30, 1997, the approximate future minimum annual rentals due under the noncancelable leases are as follows (in thousands): 1998.............................................. $1,324 1999.............................................. 515 2000.............................................. 216 2001.............................................. 55 ------ $2,110 ====== Capital Leases The Company has entered into capital equipment leases for approximately $973,000 which expire at varying dates through March 1998. The carrying value of the property under these leases was charged against earnings in fiscal 1997 as a result of the Company's abandonment of a management information system project (see Note 12). At June 30, 1997, future minimum lease payments pursuant to these leases are as follows (in thousands): 1998............................................... $ 339 1999............................................... 225 ----- Total minimum lease payments....................... 564 Less amounts representing interest of approximately 12%.............................................. (56) ----- Present value of minimum lease payments............ 508 Less current portion............................... (292) ----- $ 216 ===== 31 33 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Other The Company is a guarantor of a mortgage note payable, with an outstanding balance of approximately $1.3 million, which encumbers a building that is owned by the former owner of Copley Systems Corporation (Copley). At the time of its acquisition by the Company, Copley leased office and warehouse space from an affiliate of the principal stockholder of Copley (the Seller), which lease expires on June 25, 2007. The lease provides for monthly payments of $26,000. In exchange for a payment made at closing, the Seller assumed the lease, agreed to make all required payments thereunder, and indemnified the Company against any amounts which may become due under the lease for the balance of its term. 8. 401(k) PLAN The Company has a 401(k) plan under which full-time employees shall be eligible to become participants upon attaining age 21 and completing 3 months of service. Employer contributions are at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. Contributions for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were approximately $149,000, $112,000 and $128,000, respectively. 9. COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PUBLIC OFFERING In the first quarter of 1996, the Company incurred approximately $486,000 in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-1. This public offering was terminated and the related costs were charged against earnings during the year ended June 30, 1996. 10. MAJOR CUSTOMER A major customer accounted for approximately 10% of sales for the year ended June 30, 1995. No individual customer accounted for greater than 10% of sales for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. 11. RESTRUCTURING CHARGE During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company recorded a charge of $2.3 million for restructuring costs associated with the planned relocation and consolidation of the Company's headquarters, and certain sales and distribution facilities. These costs included approximately $1.7 million for severance benefits for approximately 125 affected employees, $400,000 for the write-off of property and equipment, and approximately $200,000 for lease extension and termination costs and other activities to close existing facilities. However, on October 30, 1996, the Company decided not to proceed with many of the planned restructuring activities, primarily as a result of the Company's desire to retain certain key personnel for whom relocation was not a viable option, as well as other cost considerations. Accordingly, during the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company reversed approximately $1.8 million of the original accrual for restructuring costs. During 1997, the Company paid approximately $328,000 associated with these activities and has approximately $128,000 accrued as of June 30, 1997 which represents future severance payments for four employees affected by the implementation of certain of the planned restructuring activities. In connection with the plans, discussed above, the Company had previously signed a ten-year lease commencing January 1997. During 1997, the Company negotiated a termination agreement with the landlord to be released of its obligations under the lease agreement for a charge of approximately $895,000, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30,1997. As of June 30, 1997, such obligation has been fully satisfied. 32 34 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 12. LOSS ON ABANDONMENT OF MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM During 1997 and 1996, the Company invested a total of $4,161,370 in a management information system (MIS System) which was intended to replace the multiple systems then in use. During 1997, the Company concluded that the system did not provide the minimum required functionality and that the costs required to achieve such functionality did not justify further investment. Therefore, the Company decided to abandon the MIS System and implement an alternative solution. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of $4,161,370 in the third quarter of 1997 associated with the write-off of the carrying value of its investment in the MIS System, consisting primarily of software and capitalized consulting fees. The fees allegedly due to the consultants who were engaged in connection with the implementation of the MIS System are being disputed by the Company and, at June 30, 1997, such fees totaling approximately $2,037,000 are included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet. 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On July 23, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 6,950,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate price of $7,436,500 to various unaffiliated third parties. As a result of the sale, the buyers now hold 49.86% of the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding. In connection with the sale, the Company issued warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the individuals who facilitated the transaction. The warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $1.13 per share and expire in 2004. The proceeds received by the Company, net of associated expenses, of approximately $7.2 million were used to repay borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit. Assuming this repayment had occurred on July 1, 1996, the loss per common share for the year ended June 30, 1997 would have been $(.41) as a result of a reduction of interest costs of approximately $670,000 and an increase in the common shares outstanding of 6,950,000. On September 18, 1997, the Company announced a new logistics strategy and plan to consolidate its headquarters functions into a new facility in Charlotte, NC. The Company expects that these actions will allow it to be more responsive to its customers and improve the quality, efficiency, and timeliness of the products and services it provides. The strategy will be implemented in stages with all elements expected to be completed by December 31, 1997. The Company's preliminary estimate of the costs associated with the consolidation is approximately $2 million. These costs include employee severance and relocation benefits, recruiting costs, facility relocation costs and the write-off of certain property and equipment. This estimate also includes the estimated costs associated with the duplication of certain employee responsibilities and redundant facilities during the transition period. 33 35 COMPUTER INTEGRATION CORP.
