<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Net sales for the second quarter of 2010 were $101.6&nbsp;million, a 6.9% increase over $95.0&nbsp;million
for the prior year period, primarily reflecting a modest improvement in the economy and continued
growth with our strategic, governmental and automotive customers. Gross profit increased to $58.6
million in the second quarter of 2010, a $2.8&nbsp;million improvement over the prior year second
quarter. Gross profit margin was 57.7% compared to 58.8% in 2009. The margin decline was primarily
due to a change in the customer mix to higher volume customers and an increase in the proportion of
total sales generated by the lower margin OEM segment. Selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased 2.4&nbsp;percentage points as a percent of sales, as certain efficiencies were realized from
the streamlining of our cost structure, including the closure of our Dallas and Charlotte
distribution centers in 2009.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Operating income in the second quarter of 2010 was $3.3&nbsp;million compared to $3.4&nbsp;million in 2009.
Excluding the effect of severance and other restructuring charges and the effect of the disposal of
property, adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the quarter was $4.5&nbsp;million compared to $2.9
million in last year&#146;s period. Additionally, the Company incurred Enterprise Resource Planning
(&#147;ERP&#148;) implementation expenses of $0.6&nbsp;million for the quarter. The Company reported net income of
$1.7&nbsp;million or $0.20 per share in the second quarter of 2010 compared to net income of $1.8
million or $0.22 per share in the second quarter of 2009.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Net sales for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010, were $196.7&nbsp;million, a 1.2% improvement over net
sales of $194.4&nbsp;million in the first half of 2009. Gross profit increased to $114.1&nbsp;million for the
six months ended 2010, a $4.1&nbsp;million increase over last year&#146;s period. Gross profit as a percent
of sales was 58.0% for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 compared to 56.6% for the six months
ended June&nbsp;30, 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales
decreased 2.4&nbsp;percentage points in the first half of 2010 compared to the first half of 2009
primarily due to the implementation of cost control measures.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Operating income for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 was $7.9&nbsp;million compared to an operating
loss of $5.5&nbsp;million in 2009. Excluding the effect of severance and other restructuring charges and
the effect of the disposal of property adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the quarter was $7.9
million compared to $0.4&nbsp;million in 2009. The Company reported net income of $4.0&nbsp;million or $0.47
per share of common stock in the first six months of 2010, compared to a net loss of $4.1&nbsp;million
or $0.48 per share loss in the comparable 2009 period.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Thomas Neri, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, &#147;We were encouraged during the second
quarter by signs that the economy is continuing to stabilize. Sales and operating results continue
to trend positively as we make investments to transform our business. Our balance sheet continues
to be strong, even as we increased our working capital during the quarter to support higher sales.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">Mr.&nbsp;Neri concluded, &#147;In the second half of 2010 and in the years to come we look forward to
realizing further benefits from our key strategic initiatives, which include, sales transformation,
ERP implementation and network optimization. We will continue to invest in these initiatives
which, we believe in the long-term, will improve the customer experience; leading to sales growth
and increased shareholder returns.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 9pt">The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). However, the Company&#146;s management believes that certain non-GAAP financial
measures may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between
current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the
business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain
infrequently occurring or non-operational items that impact the overall comparability. See the
table below for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial
measures for the three months and six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 and 2009. Non-GAAP financial
measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company&#146;s reported
results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
