              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                               September 30, 1999

(1)  General
     -------

       These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read
     in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the summary
     of significant accounting policies and notes thereto included in the 1998
     Annual Report on Form 10-K for CompuCom Systems, Inc. (the Company). The
     information furnished is unaudited but reflects all adjustments consisting
     only of normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of management,
     necessary to present a fair statement of the results for these interim
     periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results expected
     for the full year.

(2)  Contingencies
     -------------

       The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in
     the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
     disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
     Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations, taken
     as a whole.

(3)  Earnings per share
     ------------------

       In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," basic earnings per
     common share have been computed based on net earnings after preferred stock
     dividend requirements and the weighted average number of common shares
     outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share assumes
     conversion of dilutive convertible securities into common stock at the
     later of the beginning of the period or date of issuance and includes the
     add-back of related interest expense and/or dividends, as required.
     Earnings per common share have been computed as follows (in thousands,
     except per share amounts):

     are considered anti-dilutive.


(4)  Business Combinations
     ---------------------

     During 1998, the Company consummated three business combinations
     (collectively, "the 1998 acquisitions"). The total consideration given for
     the 1998 acquisitions was approximately $49 million in cash. In addition,
     the Company assumed liabilities of approximately $95 million, in aggregate.
     The 1998 acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and accordingly the
     consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the acquired
     entities since the respective acquisition dates.

     On May 10, 1999, the Company consummated the acquisition of the TASD
     division of ENTEX Information Services, Inc ("the TASD acquisition"). The
     total consideration given for the TASD acquisition was approximately $137
     million in cash. The TASD acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and
     accordingly the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the
     operations of the acquired entity since the acquisition date. The Company
     has not completed the allocation of the purchase price for the TASD
     acquistion. Therefore, the allocation of the purchase price recorded could
     be adjusted once this process is completed.

     The following unaudited proforma financial information presents the
     combined results of operations for the three and nine months ended
     September 30, 1998 as if the 1998 acquisitions and the TASD acquisition had
     occurred as of the beginning of 1998, after giving effect to certain
     adjustments, including amortization of goodwill, increased financing
     expense on debt related to the acquisitions, and related income tax
     effects. The proforma results do not necessarily represent results which
     would have occurred if the 1998 acquisition and the TASD acquisition had
     taken place on the basis assumed above, nor are they indicative of the
     results of future combined operations.

(5)  Client Link/ E-Certify Merger
     -----------------------------

     On April 13, 1999, the Company completed the merger ("the E-Certify
     merger") of its majority-owned subsidiary, ClientLink, Inc. ("ClientLink")
     with E-Certify Corporation ("E-Certify"). The combined operations of
     ClientLink and E-Certify will be conducted under the name E-Certify, Inc.
     The Company has recorded its investment in E-Certify at the net carrying
     amount of its investment in ClientLink and will account for the ongoing
     operation using the equity method and as such has condensed its net
     investment into a single investment account, which is included in Other
     Non-current Assets as of September 30, 1999.

(6)  Restructuring Accrual
     ---------------------

     During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a $16.4 million
     restructuring charge, primarily consisting of costs associated with the
     closing of facilities and disposing of related fixed assets as well as
     employee severance and benefits related to a reduction in workforce. The
     following table provides a summary of the restructuring charge by category
     as well as a rollforward of the restructuring accrual through September 30,
     1999:

     The Company expects the restructuring activities to be substantially
     completed by the end of 1999 and believes the restructuring accrual is
     reasonable.

(7)  Segment Information
     -------------------

     The Company defines its operations as three distinct segments - sales of
     computer products ("product"); services, which includes configuration,
     network integration, and technology support ("service") and ClientLink.
     During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, ClientLink merged with E-Certify
     and is accounted for on the equity basis after the merger. Therefore, as of
     September 30, 1999, the Company defines its operations as two distinct
     segments, product and service.

     The Company measures segment earnings as operating earnings, defined as
     income before restructuring charges, financing expenses and income taxes.
     All significant intersegment activity has been eliminated. Business assets
     are the owned or allocated assets used by each business. The "Other" column
     includes all assets not specifically allocated to a segment.

(8)  Financing Arrangements

     During the second quarter of 1999, the Company finalized the following new
     credit agreements: a) a $175 million receivables securitization ("the
     Securitization") and b) a $225 million working capital facility ("the
     Revolver"). These new credit facilities replaced the Company's previous
     securitization and working capital facility. The new Securitization, which
     has a term of 3 years and pricing based on a designated short term interest
     rate plus an agreed-upon spread, allows the Company to sell an interest in
     its accounts receivable on a revolving basis and is accounted for as a sale
     of accounts receivable in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
     Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of financial
     Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". As planned, the Company
     increased the Securitization to $250 million in September 1999. As of
     September 30, 1999 the Company has fully utilized the Securitization. The
     new Revolver, which matures in May 2002, bears interest at LIBOR plus an
     agreed-upon spread and is secured by a lien on the Company's assets.
     Availability under the Revolver is subject to a borrowing base calculation
     and compliance with certain financial covenants. As negotiated in the
     second quarter of 1999, the Revolver was reduced by $25 million in
     September 1999 and is scheduled to be reduced by an additional $25 million
     in May 2000. As of September 30, 1999 the Company had sufficient collateral
     to enable it to fully utilize the Revolver and had $150 million outstanding
     under the Revolver. Both the Securitization and the Revolver require the
     Company to maintain compliance with selected financial covenants and
     ratios.

(9)  Reclassification
     ----------------

     Certain amounts in the 1998 condensed consolidated financial statements
     have been reclassified to conform with the 1999 presentation.

                           and Results of Operations


COMPARISON OF THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 TO THE QUARTER ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

  Product revenue, which is primarily derived from the sale of distributed
desktop computer products to corporate customers, increased approximately 51.6%
to $806.2 million in the third quarter of 1999 from $531.6 million in the third
quarter of 1998.  The increase in product revenue is the result of the May 1999
TASD acquisition. Product gross margin as a percentage of product revenue for
the third quarter of 1999 was 8.1% compared to 9.3% for the third quarter of
1998. The Company attributes this decline primarily to heightened competition
from direct marketers and other corporate resellers and a reduction in
manufacturer sponsored incentives. The Company expects to continue to experience
lower product gross margin percentages when compared to the comparable prior
year period.

  Service revenue increased 22.7% to $83.2 million for the third quarter of 1999
from $67.8 on during the third quarter of 1998.  Service revenue is
primarily derived from LAN/WAN projects, consulting, asset tracking, network
management, help desk, field engineering, procurement, configuration,
distribution, and software management.  Service revenue reflects revenue
generated by the actual performance of specific services and does not include
product sales associated with service projects. The increase in service revenue
is primarily due to increases in both configuration and field engineering, both
of which benefited from an increase in product unit sales volume. Service gross
margin as a percentage of service net revenue for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 was 34.9% compared to 32.5% for the same period in 1998. The
increase was primarily due to improved performance in the Company's field
engineering business. In the short term, the Company expects to continue to
experience improved service gross margin percentages when compared to the
comparable prior year period.

  Selling expense increased approximately $3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to the same prior year period. This increase is
primarily due to the TASD acquisition, which resulted in an increase in sales
and sales support personnel partially offset by the Company's 1998
restructuring. Although the TASD acquisition resulted in an increase in the
dollar amount of selling expense, selling expense as a percentage of revenue
declined to 3.7% for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from 5.0% for the
same period a year ago. The Company attributes this decline to increased
leverage of its infrastructure resulting from the TASD acquisition and its own
cost reduction efforts.

  Service expense decreased approximately $1.1 million to $13 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $14.1 million for the same prior year
period. As a result of the E-Certify merger, ClientLink is no longer a
consolidated subsidiary and consequently service expenses do not reflect
ClientLink's expenses subsequent to the E-Certify merger. The Company's equity
interest in E-Certify's loss is recorded in general and administrative expense.
The Company's interest in the loss was less than $0.2 million.

  General and administrative expense increased to approximately $24.9 million
for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $17.7 million for the same
period in the prior year. This increase was primarily due to increases in
distribution and administrative personnel to support the Company's revenue
growth and expenses related to the TASD acquisition and expenditures to continue
expansion of the Company's electronic commerce capabilities. The Company's
operating expenses are reported net of reimbursements by certain manufacturers
for specific training, promotional and marketing programs. These reimbursements
offset the expenses incurred by the Company.

                                                                     (continued)

                           and Results of Operations

  Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 in absolute dollars but decreased as a percentage of net
revenue when compared to the same period in 1998. Goodwill amortization
increased primarily due to the TASD acquisition. In addition, depreciation
expenses increased due to certain property and equipment acquired in the TASD
acquisition.

  Financing expense decreased as a percentage of net revenue, but increased in
absolute dollars for the three months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to
the same period in 1998. This absolute dollar increase is primarily a result of
increased borrowings associated with the TASD acquisition.

  As a result of the factors discussed above, net earnings increased for the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 to $6.5 million compared to $1.1 million for
the same period in 1998.


COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

  Product revenue increased approximately 36% to $2.0 billion for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from approximately $1.4 billion in the same
period of 1998. The increase in product revenue is primarily a result of the
TASD acquisition. Product gross margin as a percentage of product revenue for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was 8.0% compared to 10.0% for the same
period in 1998.  The Company attributes this decline primarily to heightened
competition from direct marketers and other corporate resellers and a reduction
in manufacturer sponsored incentives.

  Service revenue increased approximately 20% to $226 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from $188 million during the same period of
1998. The increase in service revenue is primarily due to increases in
consulting and both configuration and field engineering, which are typically
driven in part by product unit sales volume. Service gross margin as a
percentage of service net revenue was 34.4% for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 compared to 32.1% for the same period in 1998. The increase was
primarily caused by improved performance in the Company's field engineering
business.

  Selling expense increased approximately $5.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to the same prior year period.  This increase is
primarily a result of the TASD acquisition, which resulted in an increase in
sales and sales support personnel.  In addition, the Company incurred certain
professional services fees related to the integration of the TASD business into
its operations.  These incremental costs were offset partially by the Company's
cost reduction efforts related to the 1998 restructuring.  Although the TASD
acquisition resulted in an increase in the dollar amount of selling expense,
selling expense as a percentage of revenue declined to approximately 3.9% of
revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from approximately 4.8% for
the same prior year period.   The Company attributes this decline to increased
leverage of its infrastructure resulting from the TASD acquisition and its own
cost reduction efforts.

  Service expense decreased in both dollar terms and as a percentage of revenue
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 when compared to the comparable
prior year period.   The decrease was primarily a result of the Company's cost
reduction efforts. In addition, as a result of the E-Certify merger, ClientLink
is no longer a consolidated subsidiary, and consequently service expenses do not
reflect ClientLink's expenses subsequent to the E-Certify merger. The Company's
equity interest in E-Certify's loss is recorded in general and administrative
expense. The Company's interest in the loss was less than $0.2 million.



                                                                  (Continued)

          Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                           and Results of Operations

  General and administrative expense increased to $69.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from $48.3 million for the same period in the
prior year.  This increase is primarily due to expenditures to continue
expansion of the Company's electronic commerce capabilities as well as increases
in distribution and administrative personnel to support the Company's revenue
growth and expenses resulting from the TASD acquisition.  General and
administrative expense, as a percentage of net revenue, increased for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 to 3.2% compared to 2.9% for the comparable
period of the prior year. The Company's operating expenses are reported net of
reimbursements by certain manufacturers for specific training, promotional and
marketing programs.  These reimbursements offset the expenses incurred by the
Company.

  Depreciation and amortization expense remained relatively flat as a percentage
of revenue but increased for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 in
absolute dollars when compared to the same period in 1998. The increase
primarily relates to amortization of goodwill on two business combinations that
were completed during the second quarter of 1998, and the TASD acquisition
completed during the second quarter of 1999, as well as depreciation expense for
certain property and equipment acquired in the TASD acquisition.

  Financing expense remained flat as a percentage of revenue but increased in
absolute dollars for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to
the same period in 1998. During the quarter ended June 30, 1999 the Company
incurred approximately $1 million in charges related to the extension of its
previous credit facilities until the new credit facilities were finalized.
These charges, along with higher borrowing levels due to the TASD acquisition,
were the primary reasons for the increase in financing expenses.

  As a result of the factors discussed above, net earnings decreased for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $6.7 million compared to $9.2 million
for the same period in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

  Working capital at September 30, 1999 was $230 million compared to $164
million at December 31, 1998.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in
accounts receivable resulting from higher revenues in the three months ended
September 30, 1999 than in the three months ended December 31, 1998 and an
increase in inventory partially offset by an increase in accounts payable
resulting from the TASD acquisition.  The Company's accounts payable balance
fluctuates relative to the timing of the receipts of product and the mix of
vendors.

  The Company's working capital requirements are generally funded through
financing arrangements and internally generated funds.  During the second
quarter of 1999, the Company finalized negotiations on its new credit
facilities.  The new credit facilities consisted of a $175 million receivables
securitization facility ("the Securitization") and a $225 million working
capital facility ("the Revolver") (collectively, "the Credit Facilities"). As
planned, the Company increased the Securitization to $250 million in September
1999. As of September 30, 1999 the Company has fully utilized the Securitization
with pricing based on a designated short term interest rate plus an agreed-upon
spread. As negotiated in the second quarter of 1999, the Revolver was reduced by
$25 million in September 1999 and is scheduled to be reduced by an additional
$25 million in May 2000.  The Revolver bears interest at LIBOR plus an agreed
upon spread and is secured by a lien on the Company's assets.  Availability
under the Revolver is subject to a borrowing base calculation and compliance
with certain financial covenants.  As of September 30, 1999 the Company  had
sufficient collateral to enable it to fully utilize the Revolver and had $150
million outstanding under the Revolver. The Company does not expect its
effective interest rate under the Credit Facilities to be materially different
from the levels experienced in 1998.
                                                                     (Continued)

                           and Results of Operations


  The Company's liquidity continues to be negatively impacted by vendor rebate
programs, which generally exist to enable the Company to sell its products at a
price that is competitive with direct marketers.  Under these programs, the
Company is required to pay a higher initial price for product and claim a rebate
to reduce the price.  As a result of the administrative requirements of the
vendors, the collection of these rebates can take several months. Due to these
programs, the Company's initial purchase price for the product is often higher
than the sales price the Company obtains from its customers. As of September 30,
1999 these programs are a material factor in the Company's financing needs. As
of September 30, 1999, the Company was owed approximately $77 million under
these vendor rebate programs.

  The Company's business is not capital asset intensive, and capital
expenditures in any year normally are not significant in relation to the overall
financial position of the Company. Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures
were approximately $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as
compared to $12.2 million for the same period in 1998. The majority of the 1999
and 1998 capital expenditures were related to the upgrading of Company hardware
and software. The Company does not expect capital expenditures in the fourth
quarter of 1999 to be materially different from capital expenditures made during
the first three quarters of 1999.

Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

  The Year 2000 issue results from the fact many computer programs were
previously written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable
year.  Programs written in this way may recognize a date ending in "00" as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing business delays and disruptions of operations.  The
Company has developed a step-by-step plan which details the tasks, deliverables,
resources, and target dates necessary to monitor the Company's information
systems at the turn of the century and beyond.  Assessment of the Company's
systems has been divided into five areas - Core information systems and
components ("Core IS"), Distributed Desktop systems, Non-IS systems, new IS
purchases by the Company, and mergers and acquisitions.

  The Company's Core IS includes purchasing, order management, warehouse
management, distribution, service dispatch, service parts, engineer billing,
human resources and financial information systems.  Distributed Desktop systems
include all desktop computers and related components used by the Company's
associates, wherever they are located.  Initial assessment of these systems has
included the identification of each hardware, software, tool, and package
comprising these systems to determine whether or not they support Year 2000 date
codes. Testing, remediation, and validation of the Company's Core IS and
Distributed Desktop systems was substantially completed in the third quarter of
1999.  Remediation includes the enhancement, upgrading, migration, or
replacement of non-compliant hardware, software, tools and/or systems.
Validation entails testing of all systems including a "quality control"
environment in which the date is artificially set forward to the Year 2000 to
simulate the turn of the century and beyond. The Company has also purchased a
Year 2000 compliance software package that will generate audit reports on a
regular basis to report any noncompliant Distributed Desktop systems. The
Company began using this software package in January 1999 and will produce and
review the reports on a regular basis through 2000.

                                                                     (Continued)

          Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                           and Results of Operations

  Non-IS systems include all microcontroller systems and back-up processes of
Core IS.  Microcontroller systems comprise all electronic systems such as
telephones, security systems, alarms, etc.  Initial assessment and remediation
of the Company's non-IS systems was completed during the first quarter of 1999.
The Company reviews each of its new potential hardware and software purchases to
ensure they are Year 2000 compliant.  The Company completed three acquisitions
during 1998 and the TASD acquisition in 1999; however, these acquisitions have
been integrated into the Company and the major processes of the acquired systems
have been replaced with the Company's Core IS.

  As part of its Year 2000 assessment, the Company must also consider the
compliance of third parties with which the Company has a material relationship,
namely its vendors, suppliers, and customers. The Company relies on vendors and
suppliers for hardware, software, and tools used within its own business
environment. The Company developed a Year 2000 questionnaire which was sent to
its vendors and suppliers in order to ascertain whether vendors and suppliers
warrant their hardware, software, and tools to be Year 2000 compliant and
whether vendors and suppliers have adequately addressed the Year 2000 issue. The
Company has documented compliance via the questionnaire of the hardware,
software, and tools currently in use. By the end of June 1999, the Company
upgraded or replaced any noncompliant vendors and suppliers of hardware,
software and tools then in use by the Company.

  Noncompliance could result in a system failure, business delays, and/or
disruptions in operations. The Company is in the process of finalizing a
continuity plan in case a Year 2000 problem occurs.  As a reseller of computer
products, the Company only passes through to its customers the applicable
vendor's warranties; it generally makes no warranties regarding Year 2000
compliance on any of the products it resells. However, if one of the Company's
major vendors or suppliers is found to be Year 2000 noncompliant which is not
corrected on a timely basis, it could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations.  Due to that fact, the Company is continuing
the process of obtaining assurances from its vendors and suppliers regarding
their readiness for Year 2000.

  The Company's plan also includes the availability of a test team that will
test the Company's information systems on an on-going basis to further validate
that additions or modifications to any of the Company's systems do not create
Year 2000 compliance issues.  The Company's expectations with respect to the
Year 2000 issues noted above are based on the premise there will be no material
general failure of external systems (including power, communications,
transportation or financial systems) necessary for the ordinary conduct of
business.  At the present time, the company is developing a continuity plan to
operate in the event its computer systems or those of its vendors, suppliers, or
customers are not Year 2000 compliant. The Company expects to have this
continuity plan completed by mid-December 1999.

  The Company currently anticipates it will spend approximately $1,400,000 on
Year 2000 compliance, of which approximately $1,154,000 has been spent through
September 1999.  The majority of the remaining expense is expected to be for
full-time associates dedicated to the Year 2000 compliance effort.  All previous
as well as future expenditures on Year 2000 compliance have or will come from
operating cash flow or the Company's Credit Facilities.

          Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                           and Results of Operations

  This document contains certain forward-looking statements regarding revenues,
margin, earnings, growth rates and certain business trends that involve risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
results discussed herein, specifically, the ability to grow product and service
revenue may not continue; the restructuring cost reductions may not be adequate
to offset costs needed for other operations; additional product cost reductions
may continue to reduce revenues, margins, and earnings; the improvement in
service and product gross margins may not continue; the ability to decrease
costs through the TASD acquisition or the Company's ability to maintain
customers acquired in the TASD acquisition may not be as great as anticipated;
and the Company may not be able to find additional ways to leverage costs and
reduce costs further. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially are: the Company's ability to effectively manage inventory levels in
response to changes in its major suppliers' price protection and return
programs, competitive pricing and supply, short-term interest rate fluctuations,
general economic conditions, employee turnover and possible future litigation,
the impact of Y2K and the related uncertainties may have on future revenue and
earnings as well as the risks and uncertainties set forth from time to time in
the Company's other public reports and filings and public statements.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
-------  ---------------------------------------------------------


  The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its Credit
Facilities. The Company utilizes these Credit Facilities for its working capital
and other borrowing needs. As of September 30, 1999 the Company had $250 million
outstanding under the Securitization and $150 million outstanding under the
Revolver. If the Company's effective interest rate were to increase by 75 basis
points (.75%), the Company's annual financing expense would increase by
approximately $2.1 million based on the average outstandings under the
Securitization and Revolver during the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
