               Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants

The Participants and Advisory Committee
  Reptron Electronics, Inc.
  401(k) Retirement Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Reptron Electronics, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of Assets Held
for Investment Purposes as of December 31, 2000 is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements
but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           December 31, 2000 and 1999

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of Reptron Electronics, Inc.'s (the Company) 401(k)
Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan), which was established effective January 1,
1993, provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan
agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

1.   General. The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of
     the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Employees are eligible to
     participate in the plan upon attaining the age of 18 and completing three
     months of service. Service with the Company's subsidiaries prior to January
     3, 2000 is counted towards eligibility to participate in the plan. The
     entry dates for the Plan are the first day of each month. The Plan is
     subject to provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
     1974 (ERISA).

     Effective January 3, 2000, all plan assets of the Company's wholly owned
     subsidiaries 401(k) plans (Hibbing Electronics, Reptron of PA, and Reptron
     Acquisition, Inc. dba Applied Instruments) were transferred to the Plan,
     and are presented as `transfers-in' on the statement of changes in net
     assets available for benefits.

2.   Contributions. Participants may contribute up to 19 percent (15% in 1999)
     of pre-tax annual compensation. Participants may also contribute amounts
     representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or
     contribution plans. The Company makes discretionary contributions at the
     option of the Company's board of directors not to exceed 100% of the first
     19% (15% in 1999) of participant compensation contributed as an elective
     deferral. The Company's match is based on a percentage of the participant's
     contribution. The Company's matching percentage was 10% for 2000 and 1999.

3.   Participant Accounts. Each participant's account is credited with the
     participant's contribution and allocations of the Company's contribution
     and Plan earnings, and is charged with an allocation of administrative
     expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account
     balances, as defined. Forfeited balances of terminated participants'
     non-vested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions. The
     benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be
     provided from the participant's vested account.

4.   Vesting. Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus
     actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company's discretionary matching
     portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of
     continuous service. A participant is generally 100 percent vested after
     five years of credited service.

5.   Participant Loans. Participants may borrow from their fund accounts up to a
     maximum of the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance. A
     participant must repay the loan within five (5) years unless the loan is
     used to acquire a principal residence. Each loan shall bear interest at a
     reasonable rate, as determined by the Company in accordance with the Plan's
     written loan procedures.

6.   Payment of Benefits

     Lifetime benefits (normal retirement age is 65)

     On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a
     participant may elect to receive either a lump sum amount equal to the
     value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account, or
     installment payments.

     Termination prior to retirement

     For termination of service due to reasons other than retirement, a
     participant may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her
     account as a lump sum distribution or in installment payments not exceeding
     the participant's life expectancy.

     For any termination of service, if the participant's vested account balance
     does not exceed $5,000 a single lump sum payment is required.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of
accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, as well as the reported amount of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

Shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices,
which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end.

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.

Payment of Benefits

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Expenses of the Plan

Substantially all administrative expenses of the Plan have been paid by the
Employer.

Tax Status

The Plan complies as to form with Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 and the applicable regulations to be exempt from federal
income taxes. The Plan received a favorable determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service on July 20, 1995.

NOTE C - INVESTMENTS

The following table presents the fair value of participant-directed investments
that represent 5 percent or more of the Plan's net assets. The custodian
utilized the quoted market price of the investment instruments underlying the
investment options to determine their fair value. Effective January 3, 2001, the
Plan transferred all of its assets to a new custodian, Merrill Lynch Trust
Company.

expected to be similar in nature to 1999.
