On July 26, 2001, the Registrant's parent, IKON Office Solutions, Inc.
("IKON" or the "Company"), announced results for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2001. IKON's press release dated July 26, 2001 containing further detail is
attached.
This news release includes information about the Registrant and/or IKON which
may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited
to, statements relating to the Company's outlook for the fourth quarter and the
full fiscal year and the Company's long-term investments and growth. Although
IKON believes the expectations contained in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, it can give no assurances that such expectations will prove correct.
Such forward-looking statements are based upon management's current plans or
expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including,
but not limited to: risks and uncertainties relating to conducting operations in
a competitive environment and a changing industry; delays, difficulties,
management transitions and employment issues associated with consolidation of,
and/or changes in business operations; managing the integration of existing and
acquired companies; risks and uncertainties associated with existing or future
vendor relationships; and general economic conditions. As a consequence of these
and other risks and uncertainties, IKON's current plans, anticipated actions and
future financial condition and results may differ materially from those
expressed in any forward-looking statements. Certain additional risks and
uncertainties are set forth in IKON's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
