**PART I
**Item 1.	BUSINESS

	**(a)	General Development of Business
	SED International Holdings, Inc., a Georgia corporation, and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, SED International, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("SED International"), wereincorporated in 1986 to take over the operations of the business of the Registrant's predecessor, Southern Electronics Distributors, Inc., which was engaged in the wholesale distribution of consumer electronics prod-ucts.   In fiscal 1999, the Registrant,formerly a Delaware corporation, reincorporated as a Georgia corporation.  As used herein, the term "Registrant" or the "Company" means SED International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including SED International, unless thecontext otherwise indicates.

	The Registrant is a distributor of microcomputer products, including processors, printers and other peripherals and wireless products throughout the United States and Latin America. The Registrant offers to an active base of over14,000 reseller customers a broad inventory of more than 3,500 products from approximately 150 vendors (direct and indirect), including such market leaders as Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Maxtor, Creative Labs, Acer, Apple, 3Com, Xerox, Adobe, and Compaq,through a dedicated and highly motivated sales force.  The Registrant distributes products in the United States from its strategically located warehouses in Atlanta, Georgia; Miami, Florida; and City of Industry, California. The Registrant services LatinAmerica through its wholly-owned subsidiaries SED International do Brasil Ltda. in Sao Paulo, Brazil; SED International de Colombia Ltda. in Bogota, Colombia and Intermaco S.R.L. in Buenos Aires, Argentina.  The Registrant's net sales decreased to $609.4million in fiscal 2000 from $707.6  million in fiscal 1999, but the Registrant's net income increased to $1.7 million in fiscal 2000 compared to a net loss of $37.9 million in fiscal 1999.

	The Registrant also distributes wireless telephone products in the United States and to Latin America. The Registrant is a direct distributor of wireless telephone products for Audiovox, and an indirect distributor for otherleading wireless telephone product vendors such as Motorola, Nokia, and Ericcson.  In fiscal 2000, the Registrant's net sales of microcomputer products generated approximately 85.5% of the Registrant's total net sales and wireless telephone productsrepresented the remaining 14.5%.

	**(b)	Financial Information about Industry Segments**
	The Registrant operates in only one business segment.

	**(c)	Narrative Description of Business****Products and Vendors**
	The Registrant offers its customers a broad inventory of more than 3,500 products from approximately 150 vendors (direct and indirect), including such market leaders as Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Maxtor, Creative Labs, Acer, Apple,3Com, Xerox, Adobe, and Compaq. The Registrant is a direct distributor of wireless telephone products for Audiovox, and an indirect distributor for other leading wireless telephone product vendors such as Motorola, Nokia, and Ericcson. Microcomputerrelated products, which include mass storage products, printers and other imaging products, microprocessing and memory chips, monitors, modems, networking products, notebook and personal computers and accessories, accounted for $520.9 million or 85.5% ofthe Registrant's net sales for fiscal 2000, $612.8 million or 86.6% of net sales in fiscal 1999, and $785.5 million or 88.0% of net sales in fiscal 1998. Approximately $88.5 million or 14.5% of the Registrant's net sales for fiscal 2000, $94.7 million or13.4% of net sales for fiscal 1999, and $107.1 million or 12.0% of net sales for fiscal 1998 consisted of wireless telephone products such as handheld cellular telephones and accessories. The Registrant continually evaluates its product mix and inventorylevels and maintains flexibility by adjusting its product offerings based on demand. The Registrant's vendors generally warrant the products distributed by the Registrant and allow the return of defective products.

	Generally, the Registrant's authorized distributor agreements with its microcomputer and wireless telephone products vendors permit the Registrant to sell these vendors' products in the United States and in designated countries inLatin America. The Registrant will continue to seek to expand the geographical scope of its distributor arrangements, which may include acquiring or partnering with companies that already have the distribution rights of a particular vendor in a specifiedcountry.

	As a distributor, the Registrant incurs the risk that the value of its inventory will be affected by industry-wide forces. Rapid technological change is commonplace in the microcomputer and wireless industries and can quicklydiminish the marketability of certain items, whose functionality and demand decline with the appearance of new products. These changes, coupled with price reductions by vendors, may cause rapid obsolescence of inventory and corresponding valuationreductions in that inventory.  Accordingly, the Registrant seeks provisions in its vendor agreements common to industry practice which provide price protections or credits for declines in inventory value and the right to return unsold inventory. Noassurance can be given, however, that the Registrant can negotiate such provisions in each of its contracts or that such industry practice will continue.

	The Registrant purchases goods from approximately 150 vendors (directly and indirectly) and has negotiated favorable terms from certain vendors by purchasing a substantial volume of those vendors' products. In fiscal 2000 and 1999,products purchased from Hewlett-Packard accounted for 18.7% and 21.0%, respectively of the Registrant's total purchases.  The percentage of goods purchased during fiscal 1998 by the Registrant from Hewlett-Packard and Seagate was 19.1% and 11.1% of itstotal product purchases, respectively.  During fiscal 2000 and 1999, the Registrant, no longer operated under direct distribution agreements in the United States with Hewlett-Packard and Seagate.

	There can be no assurance that the Registrant will be able to maintain its existing vendor relationships or secure additional vendors as needed. The Registrant's vendor relationships typically are non-exclusive and subject toannual renewal, terminable by either party on short notice, and contain territorial restrictions that limit the countries in which the Registrant is permitted to distribute the products. The loss of a major vendor, the deterioration of the Registrant'srelationship with a major vendor, the loss or deterioration of vendor support for certain Registrant-provided services, the decline in demand for a particular vendor's product, or the failure of the Registrant to establish good relationships with majornew vendors or other Virtual Vendor Model distributors could have a material adverse effect on the Registrant's business, financial condition and results of operations.

	Product orders typically are processed and shipped from the Registrant's distribution facilities on the same day an order is received or, in the case of orders received after 6:00 p.m., on the next business day. The Registrantrelies almost entirely on arrangements with independent shipping companies for the delivery of its products to United States customers. Products distributed to the Latin American markets are delivered to the foreign purchasers or their agents orrepresentatives at the Registrant's Sao Paulo, Brazil; Bogota, Colombia and Buenos Aires, Argentina facilities.  Generally, the Registrant's inventory level of products has been adequate to permit the Registrant to be responsive to its customers' purchaserequirements. From time to time, however, the Registrant experiences temporary shortages of certain products as its vendors experience increased demand or manufacturing difficulties with respect to their products, resulting in smaller allocations of suchproducts to the Registrant.
**Sales and Marketing**
	The Registrant's sales are generated by a telemarketing sales force, which, on June 30, 2000, consisted of approximately 173 persons in sales offices located in Atlanta, Georgia; Miami, Florida; Carlsbad, California; City ofIndustry, California; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Bogota, Colombia and Buenos Aires, Argentina.  Of the total number of salespersons on June 30, 2000, 94 persons focused on sales to customers for export to Latin America and on sales in Brazil, Colombia andArgentina.  Substantially all of those salespeople are fluent in Spanish or Portuguese. The Registrant's Atlanta sales office maintains a separate telemarketing sales force for the sale of wireless telephone products to retailers and wireless telephonecarriers and their authorized agents located throughout the United States and Latin America.

	Members of the sales staff are trained through intensive in-house sales training programs, along with vendor-sponsored product seminars. This training allows sales personnel to provide customers with product information and to usetheir marketing expertise to answer customers' questions about important new product considerations, such as compatibility and capability, while offering advice on which products meet specific performance and price criteria. The Registrant's salespeopleare able to analyze quickly the Registrant's extensive inventory through a sophisticated management information system and recommend the most appropriate cost-effective systems and hardware for each customer, whether that customer is a full-line retaileror an industry-specific reseller.

	The Registrant's domestic sales force is organized in teams generally consisting of two to four people. The Registrant believes that teams provide superior customer service because customers can contact one of several people.Moreover, the long-term nature of the Registrant's customer relationships is better served by teams that increase the depth of the relationship and improve the consistency of service. It has been the Registrant's experience that the team approach resultsin superior customer service and better employee morale.

	Compensation incentives are provided to the Registrant's salespeople, thus encouraging them to increase their product knowledge and to establish long-term relationships with existing and new customers. Customers can telephone theirsalespersons using a toll-free number provided by the Registrant. Salespeople initiate calls to introduce the Registrant's existing customers to new products and to solicit orders. In addition, salespeople seek to develop new customer relationships byusing targeted mailing lists, vendor leads and telephone directories of various cities.

	The telemarketing salespersons are supported by a variety of marketing programs. For example, the Registrant regularly sponsors shows for its resellers where it demonstrates new product offerings and discusses industrydevelopments. Also, the Registrant's in-house marketing staff prepares catalogs that list available microcomputer and wireless telephone products and routinely produces marketing materials and advertisements. In addition, the in-house marketing staffpublishes other direct mail pieces promoting specials and new products, which can be ordered directly through salespeople or through the Registrant's Internet web page providing 24-hour access to on-line order entry. The Registrant's web page providescustomers secured access to place orders and review product specifications at times that are convenient to them. Customers also can determine inventory availability and pricing on a real-time basis and in the near future customers will be able to verifythe status of previously placed orders through hyperlinks to certain independent shipping companies.

	The Registrant prides itself on being service oriented and has a number of on-going value-added services intended to benefit both the Registrant's vendors and reseller customers. For example, the Registrant is committed to trainingits salespeople to be technically knowledgeable about the products they sell. This core competency supplements the sophisticated technical support and configuration services also provided by the Registrant.  Salespeople who are knowledgeable about theproducts they sell often can assist in the configuration of microcomputer systems according to specifications given by the resellers. The Registrant believes that its salesperson's ability to listen to a reseller's needs and recommend a cost-efficientsolution strengthens the relationship between the salesperson and his or her reseller and promotes customer loyalty to a vendor's products. In addition, the Registrant provides such other value-added services as new product demonstrations and technicaleducation programs for resellers, order fulfillment and electronic ordering, and informational assistance through the Registrant's web page.

	Management continually evaluates the Registrant's product mix and the needs of its customers in order to minimize inventory obsolescence and carrying costs. The Registrant's rapid delivery terms are available to all of itscustomers, and the Registrant seeks to pass through its shipping and handling costs to its customers. The Registrant offers various credit terms including open account, prepay, credit card, COD and leasing to qualifying customers. The Registrant closelymonitors customers' creditworthiness through its on-line computer system, which contains detailed information on each customer's payment history and other relevant information. In addition, the Registrant participates in national and international creditassociations that exchange credit rating information on customers.  The Registrant establishes reserves for estimated credit losses in the normal course of business. 
**Customers**
	The Registrant serves an active, nonexclusive customer base of over 14,000 resellers of microcomputer and wireless telephone products.  Resellers include value-added resellers, corporate resellers and retailers. The Registrantbelieves the multi-billion dollar microcomputer and wireless telephone wholesale distribution industries serve customers primarily on a nonexclusive basis, which provides the Registrant with significant growth opportunities. During fiscal 2000, no singlecustomer accounted for more than 3.0% of the net sales of the Registrant.  The Registrant believes that most of its customers rely on distributors as their principal source of microcomputer and wireless telephone products.
**Competition**
	The microcomputer and wireless telephone distribution industries are highly competitive, both in the United States and in Latin America.  Competition in these industries is typically characterized by pricing pressures, productavailability and potential obsolescence, speed and accuracy of delivery, effectiveness of sales and marketing programs, credit availability, ability to tailor specific solutions to customer needs, quality of product lines and services, and availability oftechnical support and product information. Additionally, the Registrant's ability to compete favorably is principally dependent upon its ability to control inventory and other operating costs, react timely and appropriately to short-and long-term trends,price its products competitively, increase its net sales and maintain economies of scale. In the early 1990s, the United States microcomputer industry moved toward open sourcing pursuant to which vendors authorized multiple distributors to sell toresellers on equal terms rather than relying on exclusive relationships. As a result, the competitive environment has become more intense, leading to accelerating industry consolidation and declining gross margins.

	The Registrant's competitors include regional, national and international microcomputer and wireless distributors, many of which have substantially greater technical, financial and other resources than the Registrant, as well asvendors that sell directly to resellers and large resellers that sell to other resellers. Major competitors include Ingram Micro, Inc., Merisel, Inc. and Tech Data Corporation in the United States, and Brightpoint, Inc. and Cellstar Corporation.
**Seasonality**
	The Registrant's sales currently are not subject to material seasonal fluctuations although no assurance can be given that seasonal fluctuations will not develop, especially during the holiday season in the United States and LatinAmerica. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Quarterly Data; Seasonality."
**Employees**
	As of June 30, 2000, the Registrant had 451 full-time employees, 173 of whom were engaged in telemarketing and sales, 169 in administration and 109 in shipping.  The Registrant also utilized 13 part-time employees at such date.Management believes the Registrant's relations with its employees are good and the Registrant has never experienced a strike or work stoppage. There is no collective bargaining agreement covering any of the Registrant's employees.
**Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales**
	During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, the Registrant began selling directly to customers in Brazil and Colombia through the Registrant's facilities in Sao Paulo, Brazil and Bogota, Colombia.  During the fiscal year ended June30, 1999, the Registrant also began selling directly to customers in Argentina. Sales are denominated in the respective local currencies of these countries.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 approximately 43.8% and 37.7%,  respectively, ofthe Registrant's net sales were to customers for export principally into Latin America and direct sales to customers in Brazil, Colombia and Argentina.

Item 7.	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

	The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto and the Selected Consolidated Financial Data includedelsewhere herein. Historical operating results are not necessarily indicative of trends in operating results for any future period.*Overview*
	The Company is an international distributor of microcomputer products, including personal computers, printers and other peripherals and networking products throughout the United States and LatinAmerica. In fiscal 2000, the Company's net sales to customers in the United States represented approximately 56.2% of total net sales. Net sales for export principally into Latin America and in-county net sales in Brazil, Colombia and Argentinarepresented approximately 43.8% of total net sales for fiscal 2000. Net sales of microcomputer products generated approximately 85.5% of total net sales and wireless telephone products represented the remaining 14.5% for fiscal 2000.
	The Company achieved net earnings of $1.7 million on net sales of $609.4 million in fiscal 2000.  Although net sales decreased to $609.4 million in fiscal 2000 from $707.6 million in fiscal 1999, the gross profit as a percentage ofnet sales increased to 6.6% in fiscal 2000 compared to 4.4% in fiscal 1999.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales to 6.1% in fiscal 2000 from 7.7% in fiscal 1999.

	The Company incurred an operating loss of $38.6 million in fiscal 1999.  This loss resulted primarily from: (1) a decision by one of the Company's largest vendors to reduce the number of distributors, including SED, therebydiminishing sales and gross profit, and (2) the sharp reductions in SED's Miami business, which cut export activity to approximately half of its prior level of sales primarily due to economic instability in the Latin American region.  Other factorscontributing to the fiscal year 1999 financial results included a devaluation loss in Brazil and excess overhead costs in the U.S.  As a result of certain of these trends and events, the loss for fiscal 1999 included impairment charges of $15.4 millionfor the write-down of certain long-lived assets (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements).

The Company has incurred a decline in net sales in the United States since fiscal 1998 and has incurred operating losses in either its domestic or certain of its foreign operations at various timesduring the past three fiscal years.  To address these declines, Company management is pursuing a strategic plan to be implemented in fiscal 2001 that emphasizes increasing profit margins and reducing administrative and overhead costs.  The goal of thestrategic plan is to improve the Company's profitability, but there is no assurance that this plan will be successful.  Failure to effectively implement the plan could adversely effect the Company's profitability and financial condition.

Numerous factors and conditions impact the Company's ability to adequately effect this strategic plan, including, but not limited to, the following:
*Continuation of distribution agreements
 - The Company operates under formal but cancellable distribution agreements with certain of its suppliers.  If these agreements were cancelled, theCompany would be forced to obtain its products through wholesalers.  This would reduce the Company's profit margin on the affected products.

*Availability of certain products
 - From time to time, due to production limitations or heavy demand, the Company may only be able to purchase a limited amount of popular products from itssuppliers.

*Product margins
 - The Company operates in a very competitive business environment.  Accordingly, product margins are continually under pricing pressure.

*Vendor credit
 - The Company significantly relies on its suppliers for trade credit.  Changes by the suppliers in their credit terms could force the Company to obtain less favorablefinancing for its purchases.

*Product obsolescence 
- The Company offers a broad line of products that are subject to fast technological obsolescence, which
increases the risk of inventory markdown.  Through its vendor agreements, the Company has
certain stock return privileges, which vary from supplier to supplier.
*Credit decisions and losses
 - The Company maintains an experienced customer credit
staff and relieson customer payment history and third party data to make customer credit decisions.  Nevertheless, the Company may experience customer credit losses in excess of its expectations.  The Company also maintains credit insurance for customers located in theUnited States (subject to certain terms and conditions).
*Proportionate control of general and administrative costs
 - The Company attempts to control its overhead costs to keep such costs in line with its sales volume.  As sales volumesfluctuate, the Company must continually monitor its overhead costs and make adjustments timely and appropriately.

*Uncertain and possibly volatile economic and political environment in Latin America
  -  The general economic and political environment in all of the countries in which the Company operatesin Latin America are uncertain and, at times, volatile.  As a result of these conditions, the Company could experience unexpected costs from its operations in these countries.

*Availability of credit facilities 
- The Company has operated under a formal credit facility with a bank for many years that is subject to certain collateral limitations and containscertain compliance covenants (as more further described in Note 4).  One of the most restrictive covenants requires the Company to maintain positive earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization on a quarterly basis. The Company hasviolated certain of the facility covenants in the past, but has been able to obtain waivers of such violations. In the event the Company borrows or requests to borrow under the credit facility and it fails to maintain covenant compliance, there is noassurance that waivers requested will be granted.  At June 30, 2000 and through September 26, 2000, the Company has not borrowed under this credit facility.

*Cash flows 
- The Company's anticipated growth in Latin America may require additional capital infusion (in the form of equity from the parent company or debt borrowings by the subsidiary). Operating needs and regulatory matters restrict the Company's ability to repatriate cash flows to the United States.

	For the Company's domestic operations, all purchases and sales are denominated in United States dollars. For the Company's operations in Brazil, Colombia and Argentina, in-country transactionsare conducted in the respective local currencies of these three locations while import purchases are denominated in United States dollars.*Results of Operations*
	The following table sets forth, for the periods presented, the percentage of net sales represented by certain items in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings: 
 

		Year Ended June 30,	
		2000	1999	1998	
Net sales						100.0%		100.0%	100.0%

*Fiscal 2000 Compared to Fiscal 1999

	Net sales decreased 13.9%, or $98.2 million, to $609.4 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $707.6 million in fiscal 1999. Information concerning the Company's domestic and foreign sales issummarized below:
	Year Ended
		June 30,			Change	
	2000	1999	Amount	Percent
United States:

	Domestic	$342.6	$440.5	$(97.9)	22.2%
	Export	148.3	191.6	(43.3)	22.6%
Latin America	122.0	82.9	39.1	47.2%

Elimination		(3.5)	(7.4)	3.9	N/A

Consolidated	$609.4	$707.6	$(98.2)	13.9%

	The overall sales decline resulted from a decrease in United States domestic net sales and a decline in net sales to customers for export principally to Latin America offset by a net increase in in-country net sales for Brazil(Magna Distribuidora Ltda. acquired in December 1997 and now operating as SED International do Brasil Ltda.), Colombia (commenced operations in May 1998 and operating as SED International de Colombia Ltda.) and Argentina (Intermaco S.R.L. acquired inNovember 1998).

	The decrease in sales in the United States was primarily due to lower sales of printers, computer processors and monitors.  The sales increase in Latin America was generally incurred across all product categories.  Sales ofmicrocomputer products represented approximately 85.5% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2000 compared to 86.6% for fiscal 1999.  Sales of wireless telephone products accounted for approximately 14.5% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2000 comparedto 13.4% for fiscal 1999. 

	Gross profit increased $8.8 million to $40.0 million in fiscal 2000, compared to $31.2 million in fiscal 1999.   Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 6.6% in fiscal 2000 from 4.4% in fiscal 1999.  The changein gross profit as a percentage of sales was due to a decrease in lower margin sales in the United States, an increase in higher margin sales in Latin America and the change in the mix of products sold.  Overall, the Company continues to experiencepricing pressure in selling products.

	Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 31.5% to $37.3  million, compared to $54.4 million in fiscal 1999.  These expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 6.1% in 2000 compared to 7.7% in fiscal 1999(excluding $15.4 million of impairment charges).  The dollar decrease in these expenses is primarily due to lower provision for doubtful accounts receivable, lower employee expenses, and lower occupancy costs.

	Net interest expense was $0.5 million in fiscal 2000 compared to interest expense of $0.7 million in fiscal 1999.  This net change resulted primarily from a reduction in working capital requirements in fiscal 2000.

	Income tax expense was $.6 million in fiscal 2000 compared to an income tax benefit of $1.4 million in fiscal 1999.  The effective tax rate at June 30, 2000 was 25.5% which resulted principallyfrom in-country income taxes on Latin America operations.  Domestic income was offset by the effect of previously reserved loss carryforwards resulting in no income tax expense.  At June 30, 2000, the Company has gross net operating loss carryforwards forU.S. federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $19.5 million expiring at various dates through 2019 and gross net operating loss carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes of approximately $6.6 million in Brazil, which generally do notexpire. At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company has recorded valuation allowances for principally all deferred tax assets, except those relating to Intermaco S.R.L., as there is no assurance these assets will be realized.* 

Fiscal 1999 Compared to Fiscal 1998

	Net sales decreased 20.7%, or $185.0 million, to $707.6 million in fiscal 1999 compared to $892.6 million in fiscal 1998. Information concerning the Company's domestic and foreign sales issummarized below:
	Year Ended
		June 30,			Change	
	1999	1998	Amount	Percent
United States:

	Domestic	$ 440.5	$ 528.2	$ (87.7)	16.6%
	Export	191.6	341.9	(150.3)	44.0%

Latin America	82.9	24.6	58.3	237.0%

Elimination	(7.4)	(2.1)	(5.3)	N/A	

Consolidated	$707.6	$ 892.6	$ (185.0)	20.7%

	The overall decline resulted from a decrease in United States domestic net sales, a decline in net sales to customers for export principally to Latin America and a net increase in in-country net sales for Brazil (MagnaDistribuidora Ltda. acquired in December 1997 and now operating as SED International do Brasil Ltda.), Colombia (commenced operations in May 1998 and operating as SED International de Colombia Ltda.) and Argentina (Intermaco S.R.L. acquired in November1998).

	The decrease in sales in the United States was primarily due to lower sales of mass storage products resulting from the loss of a key vendor.  Sales of microcomputer products represented approximately 86.6% of the Company's netsales in fiscal 1999 compared to 88.0% for fiscal 1998.  Sales of wireless telephone products accounted for approximately 13.4% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 1999 compared to 12.0% for fiscal 1998. 

	Gross profit decreased $13.3 million to $31.2 million in fiscal 1999, compared to $44.5 million in fiscal 1998.  Gross profit for fiscal 1999 was impacted by $7.5 million of inventory markdowns for slow moving inventory.Overall, total gross profit dollars have declined with sales.   Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 4.4% in fiscal 1999 from 5.0% in fiscal 1998.  The change in gross profit as a percentage of sales was due principally to a combinationof lower sales and the change in the mix of products sold.

	Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding $15.4 million of impairment charges for fiscal 1999 previously disclosed and $1.4 million of start-up charges in 1998 resulting from the acquisition of certain newdistribution rights at the end of fiscal 1997, increased 35.0% to $54.4  million, compared to $40.3 million in fiscal 1998.  These expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 7.7% in 1999 compared to 4.5% in fiscal 1998. The dollar increase inthese expenses is primarily due to increased provisions for accounts receivable losses in fiscal 1999 and the inclusion of operations of Latin American affiliates.

	Net interest expense was $0.7 million in fiscal 1999 compared to interest expense of $2.7 million in fiscal 1998.  This net change resulted primarily from a reduction in working capital requirements in fiscal 1999.

	Income tax benefit was $1.4 million in fiscal 1999 compared to an income tax expense of $0.4 million in fiscal 1998.  The effective tax rate (benefit) for fiscal 1999 was significantly reduced asa result of an increase in the valuation allowance.*Quarterly Data; Seasonality*

*Liquidity and Capital Resources*
	The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from the funding of working capital needs, including inventories and trade accounts receivable. Historically, the Company has financed its liquidity needs largely throughinternally generated funds, borrowings under its credit agreement and vendor lines of credit. The Company derives all of its operating income and cash flow from its subsidiaries and relies on payments from its subsidiaries to generate the funds necessaryto meet its obligations. As the Company pursues its growth strategy in Latin America, management believes that capital requirements in Latin America may limit the ability of the Company's subsidiaries in those countries to make payments to the Company.

	Operating activities provided $17.2 million, used $45.5 million and used $23.3  million of cash in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The source of cash in fiscal 2000 resulted primarily from decreases of $14.4 million ininventory and $5.1 million in accounts receivable partially offset by a $13.8 million decrease in accounts payable.  The source of cash in fiscal 1999 resulted primarily from decreases of $86.5 million in inventory and $17.6 million in accounts receivablepartially offset by a $53.6 million decrease in accounts payable.

	Investing activities used $4.5 million, $6.8 million and $6.3 million of cash in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The use of cash in fiscal 2000 was primarily for the purchase of computer equipment for $3.0 million andfor additional payments related to the purchase of Intermaco S.R.L. amounting to $1.5 million.  (The Company may be obligated to make an additional payment in fiscal 2001 relating to the purchase of Intermaco S.R.L.  The Company has the option of payingsuch additional amount either in cash or in Company common stock at the Company's option.  See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.)  The significant use of cash in fiscal 1999 was primarily for the purchase of Intermaco S.R.L. for $4.3million and $2.5 million for the purchase of computer equipment and software.  The Company used $0.7 million in fiscal 1998 to purchase SED International do Brasil Ltda. and paid $0.9 million for additional distribution rights benefited from the Globelletransaction. The remaining use of cash in fiscal 1998 was primarily due to the upgrade of the Company's computer and telephone systems as well as the expansion of warehouse and other facilities in each year.

	Financing activities used $8.1 million of cash in fiscal 2000 and $37.3 million of cash in fiscal 1999. The net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2000 primarily related to repayment of borrowings of $8.5 million under theCompany's credit agreement offset by other net bank borrowings of $435,000.  The net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 1999 primarily related to repayments of borrowings of $22.5 million under the Company's credit agreement and the repurchase of3,946,250 shares of common stock for approximately $14.8 million in open market and privately negotiated transactions under a stock buy-back program previously authorized by the Board of Directors.  (The Company currently has remaining authorization fromits Board of Directors to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company through open market and private purchases.)  In fiscal 1998, the Company received $54.4 million, net of expenses, from a public stock offering of 3,000,000 shares ofits common stock. The net proceeds from this stock offering were used to reduce indebtedness under the Company's credit agreement. Additional financing activities in fiscal 1998 relate to the exercise of stock options for $1.6 million and net borrowingsof $25.0 million under the Company's credit agreement.

	The Company has a credit agreement with Wachovia Bank N.A. ("Wachovia"), as amended in August 1999,  which provides for borrowing under a line of credit of up to $50.0 million.  At June 30, 2000, the Company had noborrowings outstanding under this facility ($8.5 million of borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 1999).  Maximum borrowings under the credit agreement are generally based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory (as defined in the creditagreement) less a $17.0 million reserve (this reserve was $15.0 million prior to March 2000).  This reserve can be drawn upon, if necessary, to finance obligations to Finova Capital Corporation, which finances the Company's purchases from certain vendors. Available borrowings under this agreement at June 30, 2000, based on collateral limitations, were $23.3 million ($17.0 million of which would only be available to finance obligations due to Finova, if necessary). 

	The Wachovia credit agreement is secured by U.S. accounts receivable and inventory and requires maintenance of certain minimum working capital and other financial ratios and has certain dividend restrictions.  The Company mayborrow at Wachovia prime rate (9.5% at June 30, 2000) or the Company may fix the interest rate for periods of 30 to 180 days under various interest rate options. The credit agreement requires a commitment fee of .25% of the unused commitment and expiresin August 2001.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average interest rate for fiscal 2000 were $4.5 million, $19.0 million and 8.60%, respectively.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average interest rate forfiscal 1999 were $7.2 million, $32.0 million and 8.12%, respectively.  At December 31, 1999 the Company was not in compliance with an agreement covenant; however,  the Company subsequently obtained a waiver of such covenant.  At June 30, 2000 the Companywas in compliance with all covenants.

	In November 1999, the Company's subsidiary, SED International do Brasil, entered into a $4.8 million line of credit agreement with a Brazilian bank.  Interest rates are negotiated at the time of borrowing.  The credit agreement issecured by the subsidiary's accounts receivable and requires the maintenance of certain financial ratios.  At June 30, 2000 there were no outstanding borrowings under this line of credit.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted averagemonthly interest rate under this loan agreement for fiscal 2000 were $1.3 million, $3.5 million and 2.02%, respectively.  The credit agreement remains effective until terminated by either party.

	In May 2000, the Company's subsidiary, SED International de Colombia Ltda., entered into a six month loan with  a Colombian bank.  Interest rates are negotiated at the time of borrowing.  The credit agreement is secured by asavings deposit of $700,000 held in a bank in the United States.  At June 30, 2000, the Company had a balance of $435,000 outstanding under this facility.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average monthly interest rate under thisloan agreement for fiscal 2000 were $109,000, $700,000 and 2.12%, respectively.

	Management believes that the credit agreement together with vendor lines of credit and internally generated funds, will be sufficient to satisfy its working capital needs during fiscal 2001.
*Financial Instruments*
	The functional currency for the Cmpany's international subsidiaries is the local currency for the country in which the subsidiaries own their primary assets.  The translation of the applicable currencies into U.S. dollars isperformed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted average exchange rate during the period.  Any related translation adjustments are recorded directlyto shareholders' equity.

	In July 1999, the Company entered into a 180-day non-deliverable forward contract covering Brazilian R$3,992,000.  This contract was accounted for as a speculative forward contract.  The contract was settled in January 2000 at acost of $194,000.  The Company has subsequently not entered into any other forward contracts or other financial instruments as of June 30, 2000.
*Inflation and Price Levels*
	Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's business because of the typically decreasing costs of products sold by the Company. The Company also receives vendor price protection for a significant portion of itsinventory. In the event a vendor reduces its prices for goods purchased by the Company prior to the Company's sale of such goods, the Company generally has been able either to receive a credit from the vendor for the price differential or to return thegoods to the vendor for a credit against the purchase price. The Latin American countries in which the Company operates have experienced high rates of inflation and hyperinflation from time to time in the past. At this time, management does not expectthat inflation will have a material impact on the Company's business in the immediate future.

Forward-Looking Statements

	The matters discussed herein and in the Letter to Shareholders accompanying this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain certain forward-looking statements that represent the Company's expectations orbeliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning future revenues and future business plans and non-historical Year 2000 information. When used by or on behalf of the Company, the words "may," "could," "should,""would," "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These statements by their nature involve substantialrisks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company's control. The Company cautions that various factors, including the factors described under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of FinancialCondition and Results of Operations" contained in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (SEC File No. 333-35069) as well as general economic conditions and industry trends, foreign currency fluctuations, the level of acquisitionopportunities available to the Company and the Company's ability to negotiate the terms of such acquisitions on a favorable basis, a dependence upon and/or loss of key vendors or customers, the transition to indirect distribution relationships for someproducts, the loss of strategic product shipping relationships, customer demand, product availability, competition (including pricing and availability), concentrations of credit risks, distribution efficiencies, capacity constraints and technologicaldifficulties could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements of the Company made by or on behalf of the Company. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.**Item 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**
	The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency and interest rates.  The Company distributes many of its products in foreign countries, primarily in Latin America.Approximately 43.8% of the Company's total net sales were generated from sales made to resellers located in Latin American countries during fiscal 2000.  The Company manages its risk to foreign currency rate changes by maintaining foreign currency bankaccounts in currencies in which it regularly transacts business.  In July, 1999 the Company entered into a 180 day non-deliverable forward contract for Brazilian Real.  This contract was accounted for as a speculative forward contract.  The Company has nofuture plans to enter into foreign exchange forward or option contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions in the future.  The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes.

	The Company's cash equivalents and short-term investments and its outstanding debt bear variable interest rates.  The rates adjust to market conditions.  Changes in the market rate affectsinterest earned and paid by the Company.  The Company's outside borrowings are minimal, however; and the Company does not use derivative instruments to offset the exposure to changes in interest rates.  Changes in the interest rates are not expected tohave a material impact on the Company's results of operations.
	In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities".  This statementrequires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income.  SFAS 133, as amended, is effective for theCompany's fiscal year beginning July 1, 2000.  The Company believes that the adoption of this standard on July 1, 2000 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors

SED International Holdings, Inc.

	We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SED International Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cashflows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

	We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financialstatements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998

1. Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
*Principles of Consolidation-The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SED International Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SED International, Inc. (formerly Southern Electronics Distributors,Inc.), SED International do Brasil Ltda.  (formerly SED Magna Distribuidora Ltda.), SED Magna (Miami), Inc., SED International de Colombia Ltda., and Intermaco S.R.L. (collectively the "Company"). All intercompany accounts and transactions havebeen eliminated. 
*Description of Business-The Company is a wholesale distributor of microcomputers, computer peripheral products and wireless telephone products, serving value-added resellers and dealers in the United States and Latin America. 
*Strategic Plan, Risks and Uncertainties-The Company has incurred a decline in net sales in the United States since fiscal 1998 and has incurred operating losses in either its domestic or certain of its foreign operations atvarious times during the past three fiscal years.  To address these declines, Company management is pursuing a strategic plan to be implemented in fiscal 2001 that emphasizes increasing profit margins and reducing administrative and overhead costs.  Thegoal of the strategic plan is to improve the Company's profitability, but there is no assurance that this plan will be successful.  Failure to effectively implement the plan could adversely effect the Company's profitability and financial condition.  

Numerous factors and conditions impact the Company's ability to adequately effect this strategic plan, including, but not limited to, the following:
*Continuation of distribution agreements
 - The Company operates under formal but cancellable distribution agreements with certain of its suppliers.  If these agreements were cancelled, theCompany would be forced to obtain its products through wholesalers.  This would reduce the Company's profit margin on the affected products.

*Availability of certain products
 - From time to time, due to production limitations or heavy demand, the Company may only be able to purchase a limited amount of popular products from itssuppliers.

*Product margins
 - The Company operates in a very competitive business environment.  Accordingly, product margins are continually under pricing pressure.

*Vendor credit
 - The Company significantly relies on its suppliers for trade credit.  Changes by the suppliers in their credit terms could force the Company to obtain less favorablefinancing for its purchases.

*Product obsolescence 
- The Company offers a broad line of products that are subject to fast technological obsolescence, which increases the risk of inventory markdown.  Through its vendor agreements, the Company has certainstock return privileges, which vary from supplier to supplier.

*Credit decisions and losses
 - The Company maintains an experienced customer credit staff and relies on customer payment history and third party data to make customer credit decisions.Nevertheless, the Company may experience customer credit losses in excess of its expectations.  The Company also maintains credit insurance for customers located in the United States (subject to certain terms and conditions).

*Proportionate control of general and administrative costs
 - The Company attempts to control its overhead costs to keep such costs in line with its sales volume.  As sales volumesfluctuate, the Company must continually monitor its overhead costs and make adjustments timely and appropriately.

*Uncertain and possibly volatile economic and political environment in Latin America
 - The general economic and political environment in all of the countries in which the Company operatesin Latin America are uncertain and, at times, volatile.  As a result of these conditions, the Company could experience unexpected costs from its operations in these countries.

*Availability of credit facilities 
- The Company has operated under a formal credit facility with a bank for many years that is subject to certain collateral limitations and containscertain compliance covenants (as more further described in Note 4).  One of the most restrictive covenants requires the Company to maintain positive earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization on a quarterly basis. The Company hasviolated certain of the facility covenants in the past, but has been able to obtain waivers of such violations. In the event the Company borrows or requests to borrow under the credit facility and it fails to maintain covenant compliance, there is noassurance that waivers requested will be granted.  At June 30, 2000 and through September 26, 2000, the Company has not borrowed under this credit facility.

*Cash flows 
- The Company's anticipated growth in Latin America may require additional capital infusion (in the form of equity from the parent company or debt borrowings by the subsidiary). Operating needs and regulatory matters restrict the Company's ability to repatriate cash flows to the United States.

*Use of Estimates-The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets andliabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
*Cash Equivalents-Cash equivalents are short-term investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less.
*Inventories-Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market and include in-transit inventory of $7,852,000 at June 30, 2000 and $10,313,000 at June 30, 1999.
*Property and Equipment-Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, whichgenerally range from three to seven years, of the related assets.  Leasehold improvements are amortized ratably over the lesser of the useful lives of the improvements or the related lease terms.
*Intangible Assets-Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill and distribution rights. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired businesses over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and isamortized using the straight-line method principally over 30 years. Distribution rights have been amortized using the straight-line method over 25 to 30 years.
*Impairment-The Company periodically reviews property and equipment and intangible assets for impairment based on judgments as to the future undiscounted cash flows from related operations.  An impaired asset is written down toits estimated fair market value based on the information available; estimated fair market value is generally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows.
*Foreign Currency Translation-The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with related translation gains or losses reported as a separate component ofshareholders' equity. The results of foreign operations are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of earnings. 
*Earnings Per Common Share (EPS)-Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS is computed using theweighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding.  Dilutive potential common shares represent additional common shares assumed to be issued.

The Company's diluted EPS differs from basic EPS solely from the effect of dilutive stock options under the treasury stock method and unvested restricted stock awards.  For the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999,  and 1998 (fiscal 2000,1999, and 1998, respectively) options for approximately 2,641,000, 1,678,000, and 1,602,000 common shares, respectively, were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation due to their antidilutive effect.
*Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements-In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments andHedging Activities".  This statement requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income.  SFAS133, as amended, is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning July 1, 2000.  The Company believes that the adoption of this standard on July 1, 2000 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.
*Fair Value of Financial Instruments-Financial instruments that are subject to fair value disclosure requirements are carried in the consolidated financial statements at amounts that approximate their fair value.

2.  Acquisitions
*Business-In November 1998, the Company acquired Intermaco S.R.L. ("Intermaco"), a Buenos Aires based distributor of Hewlett-Packard products and other computer peripherals in Argentina, for approximately $4,417,000 incash.  The Company is required to pay additional amounts (either in cash or in Company common stock at the Company's option) to the sellers of Intermaco based on a multiple of Intermaco's net earnings, as defined, for the two succeeding twelve monthperiods subsequent to the acquisition commencing November 1, 1998.  In February 2000, the Company paid the sellers of Intermaco $1,230,000 in cash and issued 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $800,000 as additional purchase amountsdue under the purchase agreement for the twelve month earnings period ended October 31, 1999.  These amounts were recorded as additional goodwill.  Any amounts payable as a result of the second twelve month earnings period ending October 31, 2000 will berecorded as additional goodwill when determinable.

In December 1997, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Magna Distribuidora Ltda., a Brazilian distributor of microcomputers and related products ("Magna"), for approximately$1,802,000, consisting of 79,719 shares of common stock valued at $1,045,000 and cash of $757,000. The Company is required to pay additional amounts ("earn-out") to the sellers of Magna based on a multiple of Magna's net earnings, as defined,for the two succeeding twelve month periods subsequent to the acquisition commencing December 1997.  No additional amounts have been paid based on the results (as initially calculated) of these two twelve month periods.  Company management believes thatno additional amounts are payable; however, the former owners of Magna have not agreed with the earn-out computation for the second twelve month period ended November 1999 and, as a result, such calculation is still under review.

These acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  The allocation of purchase price for Intermaco and Magna have resulted in $4,945,000 and $758,000 of goodwill, respectively.  As discussed in Note 3,the Company recorded an impairment charge during the third quarter of fiscal 1999 for the then remaining goodwill related to Magna.

The operating results of the acquired businesses are included in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings from their respective acquisition dates. The pro forma impact of business acquisitions on operations for fiscal 1999 and1998 was not material.
*Distribution Rights-On June 30, 1997, as a result of a transaction with Globelle, a wholesale distributor of microcomputers and related products, the Company acquired certain domestic distribution rights (principally for certainHewlett-Packard products) and equipment for $12,992,000 in cash. The Company paid Globelle an additional $867,000 in fiscal 1998 for certain other domestic distribution rights. These rights were considered impaired and substantially written down duringfiscal 1999, as discussed in Note 3.

 

 

3.  Long-Term Assets

Long-term assets are comprised of the following:

		2000	1999	
Property and equipment:

	Furniture and equipment	$	13,541,000	$	10,709,000	Leasehold improvements		1,813,000		1,617,000	Other		164,000		207,000			15,518,000		12,533,000	Less accumulateddepreciation		7,691,000		5,539,000		$	7,827,000	$	6,994,000
Intangibles:

	Goodwill	$	12,104,000	$	9,852,000

	Distribution rights		226,000		226,000

			12,330,000		10,078,000	Less accumulated amortization		1,314,000		955,000		$	11,016,000	$	9,123,000		

Approximately $4,927,000 and $2,721,000 of all long-term assets at June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, relate to the Company's subsidiary Intermaco S.R.L., in Argentina.  Amortization expense of intangibles was $373,000, $888,000 and$749,000 in the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999,  and 1998, respectively.

The Company recorded impairment charges aggregating $15,386,000 during the year ended June 30, 1999 for the following: 

-	As a result of declining U.S. sales, the Company reviewed the intangible assets related to distribution rights acquired in June 1997 from Globelle for possible impairment.  This evaluation resulted in a $11,994,000 writeoff, andin some cases writedown, of these rights to their estimated fair value (based on estimated future associated cash flows).

-	In response to the poor operating performance realized at SED Magna Distribuidora Ltda. in Brazil since its December 1997 acquisition and risks inherent in its future operations, the Company recorded an impairment charge of$738,000 for the write-off of the goodwill related to this entity (as this goodwill does not appear to be recoverable).

*Revolving Bank Debt -The Company has a credit agreement with Wachovia Bank N.A. ("Wachovia"), as amended in August 1999,  which provides for borrowing under a line of credit of up to $50.0 million.  At June 30, 2000,the Company had no borrowings outstanding under this facility ($8.5 million of borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 1999).  Maximum borrowings under the credit agreement are generally based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory (as defined inthe credit agreement) less a $17.0 million reserve (this reserve was $15.0 million prior to March 2000).  This reserve can be drawn upon, if necessary, to finance obligations to Finova Capital Corporation, which finances the Company's purchases fromcertain vendors.  Available borrowings under this agreement at June 30, 2000, based on collateral limitations, were $23.3 million ($17.0 million of which would only be available to finance obligations due to Finova, if necessary). 

The Wachovia credit agreement is secured by accounts receivable and inventory of SED International, Inc. and requires maintenance of certain minimum working capital and other financial ratios and has certain dividend restrictions.  TheCompany may borrow at Wachovia's prime rate (9.5% at June 30, 2000) or the Company may fix the interest rate for periods of 30 to 180 days under various interest rate options. The credit agreement requires a commitment fee of .25% of the unused commitmentand expires in August 2001.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average interest rate for fiscal 2000 were $4.5 million, $19.0 million and 8.60%, respectively.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average interestrate for fiscal 1999 were $7.2 million, $32.0 million and 8.12%, respectively.  At December 31, 1999 the Company was not in compliance with an agreement covenant; however,  the Company subsequently obtained a waiver of such covenant.  At June 30, 2000 theCompany was in compliance with all covenants.
*Subsidiary Bank Debt - In November 1999, the Company's subsidiary, SED International do Brasil, entered into a $4.8 million line of credit agreement with a Brazilian bank.  Interest rates on borrowings are negotiated at the timeof borrowing.  The credit agreement is secured by the subsidiary's accounts receivable and requires the maintenance of certain financial ratios.  At June 30, 2000 there were no outstanding borrowings under this line of credit.  Average borrowings, maximumborrowings and the weighted average monthly interest rate under this loan agreement for fiscal 2000 were $1.3 million, $3.5 million and 2.02%, respectively. The credit agreement remains effective until terminated by either party.

In May 2000, the Company's subsidiary, SED International de Colombia Ltda., entered into a six month loan with  a Colombian bank. Interest rates on borrowings are negotiated at the time of borrowing.  The credit agreement is secured bya savings deposit of $700,000 held in a bank in the United States.  At June 30, 2000, the Company had $435,000 of borrowings outstanding under this facility.  Average borrowings, maximum borrowings and the weighted average monthly interest rate under thisloan agreement for fiscal 2000 were $109,000, $700,000 and 2.12%, respectively.

The carrying value of all bank debt at June 30, 2000 and 1999 approximates its fair value based on interest rates that are believed to be available to the Company for debt with similar provisions.

 

5.  Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The tax effects ofsignificant items comprising the Company's deferred tax assets are as follows:

		June 30,	
	2000	1999	

U.S. federal and state operating loss carryforwards	$    8,460,000	$   9,240,000

Foreign operating loss carryforwards	2,175,000	2,046,000

Reserves not currently deductible	1,654,000	2,237,000 

Other	302,000	170,000

Valuation allowance	(12,231,000)	(13,403,000)

	$      360,000	    $      290,000

At June 30, 2000, the Company has gross net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes in the United States of approximately $19 million and $30 million, respectively, expiring at various dates through 2019and gross net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes in Brazil of approximately $6.6 million which generally do not expire.  At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for principally all deferred tax assets,except for those relating to Intermaco S.R.L., as there is no assurance that these assets will be realized. 

Components of income tax expense (benefit) are as follows:

		Year Ended June 30,	
			2000	1999	1998	
Current:

	Federal	             	$  (2,795,000)	   $     914,000

	State		(252,000)	47,000

	Foreign	$  648,000	128,000	

		648,000	(2,919,000)	961,000

Deferred:

	Federal		1,203,000	  (552,000)

	State		313,000	(52,000)

	Foreign	(70,000)	(4,000)	

		(70,000)	1,512,000	(604,000)

			$  578,000	$  (1,407,000)	  $    357,000
 

Income tax benefits relating to the exercise of employee stock awards and options reduce taxes currently payable and are credited to additional paid-in capital. Such amounts approximated $818,000 for fiscal 1998.

 

The Company's effective tax rates differ from statutory rates as follows:

		Year Ended June 30,	
		2000	1999	1998 	
Statutory federal rate (benefit)		 34.0%		(34.0)% 		34.0%

State income taxes net of

	federal income tax benefit		3.6		0.1		28.4

Other				35.9	.2		4.6		41.5

							25.5%		  ( 3.6)%		350.0%
The valuation allowance increased (decreased) during fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998 by $(1,172,000), $13,074,000, and $329,000, respectively.

*Stock Options-The Company maintains stock option plans under which 2,840,001 shares of common stock have been reserved at June 30, 2000 for outstanding and future incentive and nonqualified stock option grants as well as stockawards to officers and key employees.  In September 2000, the Company's directors reseved an additional 1,000,000 shares under one of the stock option plans. Incentive stock options must be granted at not less than the fair market value of the commonstock at the date of grant and expire 10 years from the date of grant. Nonqualified stock options may be granted at a price of not less than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant and expire 10 years from the date of grant.Options granted under the plans are exercisable in installments ranging from 10% to 50% per year. Upon the occurrence of a "change of control" (as defined), all outstanding options become immediately exercisable.

Stock option activity and related information under these plans is as follows:

		Weighted

		Average

		Shares	Exercise Price
Shares under options at June 30, 1997	1,427,786	$   6.02

	Granted	1,258,050		3.01

	Exercised

	Canceled	(313,600)		3.69

Shares under options at June 30, 2000	2,511,285		  5.09

	1999	737,115		4.95

	2000	961,135		4.91

Additionally, since 1992, the Board of Directors has granted vested nonqualified options to purchase 213,000 shares of common stock to certain directors of the Company at exercise prices ranging from $5.00 to $15.25 (fair market valueof the Company's common stock at date of grant).  Such options expire 10 years from the date of grant.  Options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock by a director were forfeited during fiscal 1997. Options to purchase 61,500 shares of common stockwere exercised by certain directors at a weighted average price of $7.73 during fiscal 1998. At June 30, 2000, 141,500 options granted to directors of the Company were outstanding and exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $4.54. 

The following table summarizes information pertaining to all options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2000:

 

		Outstanding Options			Exercisable Options	
			Weighted

			Average	Weighted

			Remaining	Average		Average

	Range of	Number	Contractual	Exercise	Number	Exercise

	Exercise Prices	Outstanding	Life (Years)	Price	Exercisable	Price	
	$2.63-$4.56	1,239,500	2.28	$3.10	54,000	$2.63

	$4.89-$5.06	1,413,285	1.83	$5.00	1,048,635	$4.98

 
*Fair Value-The weighted average fair value of options granted in fiscal 2000, 1999, and 1998 was $1.90, $2.52, and $8.61, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

		Year Ended June 30,	
		2000	1999	1998	
Dividend yield	  0.0%	0.0% 	0.0%

Expected volatility 	  57.0%	58.4%	55.5%

Risk free interest rate	 5.9%	5.1%	5.9%

Expected life, in years	 6.9	6.6 	6.8

Had compensation cost for grants under the Company's stock option plans in fiscal 2000, 1999, and 1998 been determined based on the fair value at the date of grant consistent with the method of SFAS 123, the Company's pro forma netearnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per share would have been as follows:

		Year Ended June 30,		
		2000	1999	1998	
Pro forma net earnings (loss)	$	     143,000	$	(39,027,000)	$(1,075,000)

Pro forma net earnings (loss) per common share:

	Basic	$	 .02   	$	(4.49)	$	(.11)

	Diluted	$	   .02  	$	(4.49)	$	(.11)

Results may vary depending on the assumptions within the model.
*Restricted Stock- The Company's stock option plan extablished in 1988 permited the grant of restricted stock awards to officers, key employees and directors.  Individual awards under this plan vest generally after three to tenyears. At June 30, 2000, no shares of common stock were available for issuance under this 1988 plan.  The Company's stock option plan established in 1999 also permits the grant of restricted stock awards.  Awards which have been granted under this 1999plan vest ratably over two years.  Restricted stock activity is as follows:

 

		Year Ended June 30,	
		2000	1999	1998	
	Shares of restricted stock 

	beginning of year		337,900		67,200		92,500

		Issued		150,000		280,000		16,600

		Vested		(47,500)				(30,000)

		Canceled		(31,400)		(9,300)		(11,900)

Shares of restricted stock 

	end of year		409,000		337,900		67,200

The value of restricted stock awards is determined using the market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period. The unamortized portion of such awards is deducted from stockholders'equity.
*Stockholder Rights Agreement-In October 1996, the Company adopted a stockholder rights agreement under which one common stock purchase right is presently attached to and trades with each outstanding share of the Company's commonstock. The rights become exercisable and transferable apart from the common stock ten days after a person or group, without the Company's consent, acquires beneficial ownership of 12% or more of the Company's common stock or announces or commences atender or exchange offer that could result in 12% ownership (the "Change Date"). Once exercisable, each right entitles the holder to purchase shares of common stock in number equal to eight multiplied by the product of the number of sharesoutstanding on the Change Date divided by the number of rights outstanding on the Change Date not owned by the person or group and at a price of 20% of the per share market value as of the Change Date. The rights have no voting power and, untilexercisable, no dilutive effect on net earnings per common share. The rights expire in October 2006 and are redeemable at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors at $.01 per right.
