Item 5. Other Events.
------------
On September 26, 1997, the Registrant's parent, IKON Office Solutions, Inc.
("IKON"), issued a press release indicating that it plans to release fourth
quarter and fiscal 1997 earnings on October 15, 1997, and indicating that
IKON expects earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding
transformation charges, to be within the range of $.33-.36 for the quarter.
This Report includes or incorporates by reference information which may
constitute forward-looking statements about the Registrant or IKON made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the federal securities laws.
Although the Registrant believes the expectations contained in such
forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurances can be given that
such expectations will prove correct. Such forward-looking information is
based on the Registrant's or IKON's current plans or expectations, and is
subject to risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect the
Registrant's and/or IKON's current plans, anticipated actions and future
financial condition and results. These uncertainties and risks include,
but are not limited to, those relating to IKON's successful management of
an aggressive program to acquire and integrate new companies, including
companies with technical services and products that are relatively new to
IKON, and also including companies outside the United States, which present
additional risks relating to international operations; risks and
uncertainties (applicable to both the Registrant and IKON) relating to
conducting operations in a competitive environment; delays, difficulties,
technological changes, management transitions and employment issues
(applicable to both the Registrant and IKON) associated with a large-scale
transformation project; debt service requirements (applicable to both the
Registrant and IKON), including sensitivity to fluctuation in interest
rates; and general economic conditions. As a consequence, current plans,
anticipated actions and future financial condition and results may differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by
or on behalf of the Registrant or IKON.
