(UNAUDITED)
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The condensed financial statements include the accounts of Barnett Inc. (the
"Company"). The condensed statements of income for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, the condensed balance sheet as of September 30,
1996 and the condensed statements of cash flows for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 have been prepared by the Company without audit,
while the condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 1996 was derived from audited
financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements
include all adjustments, all of which are normal and recurring in nature,
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows as of September 30, 1996 and for all periods presented. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures
included are adequate and provide a fair presentation of interim period
results. Interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of
financial position or operating results for an entire year. It is suggested
that these condensed interim financial statements be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

liquidity and sources of capital. These forward-looking statements are subject

OVERVIEW
- --------
On April 3, 1996, the Company consummated an initial public offering, (the
"Initial Public Offering") whereby 7,207,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par
value, of the Company representing approximately 55.1% of the outstanding shares
of common stock, were sold by the Company and its former parent, Waxman USA Inc.
("Waxman USA").
The prior period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect push-down
adjustments from Waxman USA, consisting of certain bank indebtedness which was
repaid by the Company on April 3, 1996. Related interest expense and debt issue
costs have also been pushed down having the effect of creating higher interest
expense than was actually paid by the Company during those periods. Interest
expense, including amortization of debt issue costs totaled $0.6 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1995.
Management fees previously charged to the Company by Waxman Industries, Inc.
("Waxman"), the parent of Waxman USA, are included as corporate charge in the
Company's financial statements. In connection with the Initial Public Offering,
these allocations are no longer charged to the Company as of March 31, 1996. As
of March 31, 1996, Waxman and the Company entered into a new intercorporate
agreement under which Waxman may provide certain managerial, administrative and
financial services to the Company, for which the Company pays Waxman the
allocable costs of the salaries and expenses of Waxman's employees rendering
such services. The Company also reimburses Waxman for actual out-of-pocket
disbursements to third parties by Waxman required for the provision of such
services. Subsequent to March 31, 1996, such payments to Waxman are reported in
the Company's financial statements as a component of general and administrative
expenses.
Pursuant to the new intercorporate agreement, the Company continues to provide
certain services to the operating divisions of WOC Inc., a subsidiary of Waxman
USA. Waxman pays the Company the allocable costs of the salaries and
expenses of the Company's employees rendering such services. Waxman also
reimburses the Company for all actual out-of-pocket disbursements to third
parties by the Company required for the provision of such services. For a
full-year period, the Company expects that the net effect of the payments made
and/or received pursuant to the new intercorporate agreement and the additional
expenses of being an independent public company to be an incremental $200,000 of
expenses.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH
---------------------------------------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
-------------------------------------
NET SALES
- ---------
Net sales increased $7.1 million, or 24.0%, to $36.5 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1996 from $29.4 million in the corresponding prior year
period. Approximately 83.6% of the increase in the Company's net sales is
attributable to the Company's telesales operations, primarily resulting from
increased sales by existing telesalespersons and the addition of 19
telesalespersons compared to the prior year period. Also contributing to the
overall increase in net sales was a net increase of 1,031 in the total number of
products offered by the Company over the past twelve months, 517 of which were
introduced in the current three month period. Sales from new product
introductions over the last twelve months contributed approximately $3.2 million
to the net sales increase during the period. Additionally, as a result of an
expanded promotional flyer campaign, active customers grew to 43,000 from 39,000
in the comparable period and contributed approximately $1.3 million to the net
sales increase during the three month period.

GROSS PROFIT
- ------------
Gross profit increased by 28.8% to $12.4 million in the three months ended
September 30, 1996 from $9.6 million in the corresponding prior year period.
Gross profit margin increased to 33.9% for the three months ended September 30,
1996 from 32.6% for the same period last year primarily as a result of favorable
vendor program changes implemented in the current three month period.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
- --------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased 26.0% to $8.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from $6.3 million for the
comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily due to increased
variable selling expenses, primarily attributable to personnel costs related to
the above mentioned addition of 19 telesalespersons, together with the
expansion of the marketing staff. Also contributing to increased variable
selling expenses were increased freight and delivery costs resulting from the
Company's determination to reduce its customers' prepaid freight minimums. In
addition, SG&A expenses increased as a result of independent company expenses
incurred by the Company since its Initial Public Offering on April 3, 1996.
SG&A expenses represented 21.9% of net sales in the three months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to 21.6% of net sales in the comparable period of
1995.
CORPORATE CHARGE
- ----------------
Corporate charges were allocations of expenses to the Company by the Company's
former parent to support its corporate activities. These allocations are no
longer charged to the Company as of March 31, 1996. As of March 31, 1996 Waxman
USA and the Company entered into a new intercorporate agreement for services
pursuant to which charges allocated to the Company only include those expenses
incurred by Waxman with respect to the Company. These expenses are included as a
component of SG&A expenses beginning April 1, 1996 and are not material.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
- --------------------------
The provision for income taxes increased $0.9 million or 103.0% to $1.7 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from $0.8 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1995, primarily as a result of increased operating
income. The Company previously participated in a tax sharing agreement with
Waxman. Under this agreement, the Company's federal tax liability was equal to
the lesser of the federal tax liability calculated on a stand-alone basis or
Waxman's federal tax liability. As Waxman had $75.0 million of available
domestic net operating loss carryforwards at September 30, 1995 for income tax
purposes, the Company had no liability for federal taxes at September 30, 1995.
The Company files separate income tax returns in certain states based on the
results of operations within the applicable states. As a result of the initial
public offering, the Company is no longer included in Waxman's consolidated tax
return. Therefore, Waxman's remaining net operating loss carryforwards are not
available to offset the Company's taxable income after April 3, 1996, the
consummation date of the Initial Public Offering.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
At September 30, 1996 the company had working capital of $31.3 million and a
current ratio of 2.7 to 1.
9
10
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $1.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to $1.1 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $2.8 million during the three
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to $0.5 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995. These investments related primarily to capital
expenditures for improved management information systems, including the buy-out
of an operating lease incurred in prior years and expansion and/or relocation of
several of the Company's distribution centers to accommodate new product
offerings.
Net cash used in financing activities was $0 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended September
30, 1995. This amount primarily represent advances to Waxman to satisfy its
debt service obligations in the prior year period.
In connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company entered into a
revolving credit agreement with First Union National Bank of Florida for an
unsecured three-year credit facility providing for borrowings of up to $15.0
million including a letter of credit subfacility of $4.0 million. Borrowings
under this facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at the prime rate
minus 75 basis points or LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The credit facility
provides funds for working capital and general corporate purposes. At September
30, 1996, there were no borrowings under the credit agreement and there were
$3.0 million of letters of credit outstanding. The credit facility contains
customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain covenants
requiring the Company to maintain debt to net worth, interest coverage and
current ratios, as well as a minimum net worth test. The credit facility also
restricts the amount of dividends payable by the Company. The Company was in
compliance with all covenants at September 30, 1996.
Historically, cash flow from operations has been sufficient to fund the
Company's growth. The Company believes that funds generated from operations will
continue to be sufficient to fund future growth. These funds, together with
funds available under the bank credit facility discussed above, will be
sufficient to fund the Company's current operational needs and growth strategy.
