FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION



This report contains statements about future events and expectations that constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on managements beliefs, assumptions and expectations of the Companys future economic performance, taking into account the information
that is currently available to management. These statements are not statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties (including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological
factors outside our control) that may cause the Companys actual results, performance or financial condition to differ materially from the expectations of future results, performance or financial condition we express or imply in any
forward-looking statements.



The words believe,
may, will, could, should, would, anticipate, estimate, expect, intend, project, objective, seek,
strive, might, likely result, build, grow, plan, goal, expand, position, or similar words, or the negatives of these words, or similar
terminology, identify forward-looking statements.



For a
description of the factors that could cause the actual results of the Company to be materially different from those projected, please review the Companys SEC reports that detail these risks and uncertainties and the section captioned
Forward Looking Information contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2002. Any forward looking statements should be considered in light of these factors. The Company is not under any
obligation, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Note 1. Business and Basis
of Presentation



The Company



Moore Medical Corp. (Moore Medical, the Company, we or
us) is an Internet-enabled, multi-channel marketer and distributor of medical, surgical and pharmaceutical products to approximately 100,000 health care practices and facilities in non-hospital settings nationwide, including: physicians,
emergency medical technicians, schools, correctional institutions, municipalities, occupational/industrial health doctors and nurses, and other specialty practice communities. Moore Medical also serves the medical/surgical supply needs of 30
customer community affiliates. We market to and serve our customers through direct mail, industry-specialized telephone support staff, field sales representatives, and the Internet. Our direct marketing and distribution business has been in
operation for 55 years. The Company operates principally from three distribution facilities located in the United States.



Basis of Presentation



Moore Medical has prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and
the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period have been made. The results for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 do not necessarily indicate the
results to be expected for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2003 or any other future period.



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys 2002 Annual Report filed on Form
10-K. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.



In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
CompensationTransition and Disclosure, an amendment of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim
financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. Pursuant to SFAS 123, the Company elected to account for stock-based compensation plans under Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Accordingly, no compensation expense was included in the determination of net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September
28, 2002. See Note 6 for the impact on net income (loss) for the periods presented had the Company recorded stock-based compensation in the determination of net income (loss).



Note 2. Business Combination



In July 2002, the Company completed its purchase of the remaining 49% interest it did not previously own in Podiatry Online, an online information site and electronic
newsletter. The purchase of Podiatry Online created a sales channel to serve podiatrists nationwide. The total purchase price of $750,000 was made with cash in the amount of $500,000 and 33,566 shares of the Companys common stock with an
aggregate value of $250,000. The acquisition was recorded as a purchase transaction, with $750,000 recorded as goodwill.

Note 3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets



Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 142 changes the
accounting for goodwill and intangible assets whereby such assets are no longer amortized; however, the standard does require evaluation for impairment and a corresponding writedown, if appropriate. Intangible assets with estimated useful lives
continue to be amortized. SFAS 142 required an initial evaluation of goodwill impairment upon adoption. The initial evaluation was performed as of January 1, 2002 resulting in no impairment in the value of the Companys goodwill. An annual
evaluation is performed to test for goodwill impairment by applying a fair value based test. The Company recorded no impairment losses during the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 and during fiscal 2002.



Included in other noncurrent assets are goodwill balances of $1.7 million at September 27,
2003 and December 28, 2002, which represent the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in the acquisitions of Podiatry Online and MERGInet Medical Resources.



Note 4. Long-Term Debt



On January 26, 2001, the Company entered into a collateralized bank financing agreement which provided up to a $15 million revolving line of
credit (loan agreement) expiring on January 26, 2004. On November 6, 2003, the Company amended its $15 million loan agreement and extended the maturity date to June 30, 2006. Interest is charged at the prime rate, plus or minus 25 basis
points or, at the option of the Company, at the LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.0% depending on the financial leverage of the Company. The Company pays a commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum on the unused line of
credit. With the exception of a $0.1 million certificate of deposit, all amounts of cash and cash equivalents are required to be offset against outstanding borrowings on the loan agreement.



In consideration for the loan agreement, the Company has collateralized all of the
Companys assets (current and future existence) over the term of the loan agreement. Pursuant to the loan agreement, the Company covenants that as long as it has any obligations or commitments to the lender, the Company will be subject to
financial covenants involving consolidated tangible net worth, minimum earnings requirements and a leverage ratio calculation. These covenant targets fluctuate over the course of the term of the loan agreement.



At December 28, 2002, the Company was in violation of the consolidated tangible net worth and
earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) financial covenants contained in its loan agreement for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. On March 27, 2003, the Company and its lender amended certain financial covenants and conditions of the
loan agreement effective for the period ended December 28, 2002, including the consolidated tangible net worth and EBIT financial covenants. As of December 28, 2002, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants, as amended. In
addition, the Company was in violation of the EBIT financial covenant contained in its amended loan agreement for the quarters ended March 29, 2003 and June 28, 2003. The Company received a waiver from its lender for the covenant violation at March
29, 2003. For the covenant violation at June 28, 2003, the Company and its lender amended certain financial covenants effective for the quarter ended June 28, 2003. As of June 28, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the EBIT financial covenant,
as amended. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants for the quarter ended September 27, 2003.



Note 5. Litigation



On July 31, 2003, the Company received an unfavorable court judgment requiring the Company to pay the legal fees of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed against the Company by the estate of a former employee. The lawsuit
related to employee benefits administration in 1993. The Company has recorded $245,000 of general and administrative expense in the nine months ended September 27, 2003 related to this judgment.

Note 6. Earnings Per Share



Earnings per share (EPS) amounts are calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is
based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, excluding any dilutive common share equivalents. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities to issue common stock were
exercised.



A reconciliation of shares used in calculating basic and diluted
EPS for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002 respectively, follows (in thousands):

|                                                       |  |                   



Employee stock options to purchase
approximately 217,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during the nine months ended September 27, 2003. Such stock options could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share
due to being anti-dilutive.



Had compensation cost for the stock option plans
been recognized based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, net income (loss) and basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share would have been as indicated in the table
below.

Pronouncements



In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,
Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging
activities under SFAS No. 133. This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after September 30, 2003.



In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This statement
requires that an issuer classify financial instruments that are within its scope as a liability. Many of those instruments were classified as equity under previous guidance. Most of the guidance in SFAS 150 is effective for all financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.

MOORE MEDICAL CORP. & SUBSIDIARY



Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



Reclassifications Certain fiscal 2002 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presented.



Overview



Moore Medical is an Internet-enabled, multi-channel marketer and distributor of medical, surgical and pharmaceutical products to
approximately 100,000 health care practices and facilities in non-hospital settings nationwide, including: physicians, emergency medical technicians, schools, correctional institutions, municipalities, occupational/industrial health doctors and
nurses, and other specialty practice communities. Moore Medical also serves the medical/surgical supply needs of 30 customer community affiliates. We market to and serve our customers through direct mail, industry-specialized telephone support
staff, field sales representatives, and the Internet. Our direct marketing and distribution business has been in operation for 55 years. The Company operates principally from three distribution facilities located in the United States.



The Company achieved net sales of $38.1 million for the third quarter ended September 27,
2003, an increase of 3.0% over the prior years quarter. In the aggregate, sales growth fell short of the Companys expectations for the quarter; however, the Company realized sales growth over the prior years quarter in several of
its specialty markets that were the focus of investments in prior quarters. While the Company has experienced an increase in net sales in this quarter and on a year-to-date basis compared to the same periods a year ago, pricing pressures and product
mix have negatively impacted the Companys gross margin percentage in fiscal 2003 compared to fiscal 2002.



As a result of an expanded specialized field sales force and additions to sales and marketing management to support the Companys multi-channel marketing and
distribution, sales and marketing expenses increased by approximately 15% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003, compared to the same period a year ago.



Increases in general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, were primarily related to increases in bad debt expense,
professional service fees, pension expense and insurance expense.



The Company
recorded net income of $0.5 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as a result of net sales growth which offset increases in general and administrative expenses. For the nine months ended
September 27, 2003, lower than expected sales growth did not generate sufficient gross profit to offset the Companys sales infrastructure investment and higher operating costs, which resulted in a net loss of $(0.3) million, or $(0.08) per
basic and diluted share.

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Months Ended September 27, 2003 versus September 28, 2002



The following table represents selected financial information, expressed as a percentage of net sales:

Net sales for the three months ended
September 27, 2003 were $ 38.1 million, an increase of 3.0% from $37.0 million in the same period a year ago. For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, net sales were $107.6 million, an increase of 4.6% from $102.9 million in the same period a
year ago. The Companys sales growth in both periods occurred primarily in its public sector (i.e., corrections, schools, federal, state and local government), podiatry and physicians specialty markets, and was offset by decreases in the
occupational health and resellers specialty markets. Internet-based revenue increased 24.3% to $4.6 million and 23.8% to $13.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, compared to $3.7 million and $10.5
million, respectively, for the same periods a year ago, as more orders were placed on the Companys enhanced e-business channel.



Gross margins decreased to 26.8% and 27.1% for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, as compared to 27.7% and 27.6% for the three and nine
months ended September 28, 2002, respectively. The decreases for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared to the same periods a year ago were primarily attributable to increased competitive pricing pressures in certain markets,
aggressive pricing associated with gaining entry into competitively held new accounts, and product mix.



Sales and marketing expenses remained constant at $2.7 million and increased by 15.0% to $9.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, compared with $2.7 million and $8.0 million
for the same periods a year ago. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.0% and increased to 8.5% for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, as compared to 7.3% and 7.7% for the three and
nine months ended September 28, 2002, respectively. Contributing to sales and marketing expenses remaining constant at $2.7 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003 compared to the same period a year ago, was an increase in sales and
marketing salaries and benefits expenses, as a result of the expansion of the field sales force. The increase was offset by efficiency gains in direct advertising expenses due to more effective, targeted marketing campaigns and increased revenue
received from vendor advertising programs. The year to date increases are attributable to increased sales and marketing salaries and benefits expenses to support the Companys multi-channel marketing and distribution, and a result of the
expansion of the field sales force in the fourth quarter of 2002, which continued into fiscal 2003.



General and administrative expenses increased by 6.3% to $6.8 million and 9.7% to $20.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, compared to $6.4 million and $18.5 million for the
same periods a year ago. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 17.7% and 18.9% for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, as compared to 17.4% and 18.0% for the three and nine
months ended September 28, 2002,

respectively. The increase from the prior years periods were primarily related to increases in pension expense, professional services fees, insurance
expense, and bad debt expense. During the first three quarters of fiscal 2003, the Company experienced difficulties in its collection of accounts receivable, particularly in smaller dollar volume customer accounts, which contributed to the increase
in bad debt expense. In addition, on July 31, 2003, the Company received an unfavorable court judgment requiring the Company to pay the legal fees of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed against the Company by the estate of a former employee. The
lawsuit related to employee benefits administration in 1993. The Company has recorded $245,000 of general and administrative expense in the nine months ended September 27, 2003 related to this judgment.



Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 decreased to
approximately $38,000 and $124,000, respectively, from approximately $113,000 and $201,000, respectively, in the same periods a year ago. This decrease was primarily attributable to the recognition of approximately $50,000 of interest expense for
the decrease in the fair value of the Companys interest rate cap agreement in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease was also attributable
to a reduction in the principal amount of borrowings under the Companys revolving line of credit along with the impact of decreasing interest rates during both periods.



The Companys effective income tax rate was 36.0% for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared to the effective
income tax rates of 36.1% and 36.0% for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2002, respectively. The difference between the Companys effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate is due primarily to state income taxes.



Net income was $0.5 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, and net loss was ($0.3)
million, or ($0.08) per basic and diluted share for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, respectively, compared to net income of $0.6 million, or $0.20 per basic and diluted share, and net income of $1.1 million, or $0.35 per basic
and diluted share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2002.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



On
January 26, 2001, the Company entered into a collateralized bank financing agreement which provided up to a $15 million revolving credit facility (loan agreement), expiring on January 26, 2004. On November 6, 2003, the Company amended
the loan agreement and extended the maturity date to June 30, 2006.



At
December 28, 2002, the Company was in violation of the consolidated tangible net worth and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) financial covenants contained in its credit facility for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. On March 27,
2003, the Company and its lender amended certain financial covenants and conditions of the credit facility effective for the period ended December 28, 2002, including the consolidated tangible net worth and EBIT financial covenants. As of December
28, 2002, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants, as amended. In addition, the Company was in violation of the EBIT financial covenant contained in its amended loan agreement for the quarters ended March 29, 2003 and June 28,
2003. The Company received a waiver from its lender for the covenant violation at March 29, 2003. For the covenant violation at June 28, 2003, the Company and its lender amended certain financial covenants effective for the quarter ended June 28,
2003. As of June 28, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the EBIT financial covenant, as amended. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants for the quarter ended September 27, 2003.



The Companys cash and cash equivalents at September 27, 2003 totaled $0.1 million in
the form of a certificate of deposit. With the exception of the $0.1 million certificate of deposit, all amounts of cash and cash equivalents are required to be offset against outstanding borrowings on the loan agreement. As of September 27, 2003,
the Company had $3.6 million outstanding on its loan agreement.

##### Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and resulted
primarily from a net loss of ($0.3) million and the combination of non-cash charges of $3.3 million and a decrease in uses of operating items of working capital of $0.1 million. Non-cash charges consisted primarily of depreciation expense of $2.0
million and bad debt expense of $1.2 million. The decrease in working capital needs was primarily due to a $4.9 million increase in accounts payable and other liabilities, a $0.1 million decrease in other assets, partially offset by an increase in
accounts receivable by $4.4 million and an increase in inventory of $0.8 million. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities was primarily due to timing and value of inventory receipts and payment of invoices. The increase in accounts
receivable was due primarily to an increase in net sales of approximately $3.8 million in the last half of the third quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the last half of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, combined with certain customers paying the
Company slower in fiscal 2003 than in fiscal 2002.



Net cash used in investing
activities was $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003. The primary investment was the replacement of the communications infrastructure within the Company. The Company expects to invest a total of nearly $2.0 million during the
fiscal year ended December 27, 2003 in capital projects on communication and computer infrastructure systems and operating efficiency initiatives which are expected to produce future benefits to the Company.



Net cash used in financing activities of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 27,
2003 is the aggregate of paying down borrowings on the Companys credit facility and a reduction in a cash overdraft.



Cash Requirements



The Company believes that cash flows from operations and available cash and cash equivalents are adequate to fund the Companys operations for the foreseeable future.



The following table quantifies the Companys future contractual cash obligations as of
September 27, 2003 (in millions):



|                 |  | Payments Due in Fiscal
|---------------- |  | ----------------------

|                 |  |                       



Application of Critical Accounting
Policies



The Companys consolidated financial statements are based
on the application of significant accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The Company believes the following are some of the more critical accounting policies that impact the Companys
financial statements:



Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations of companies acquired in purchase business transactions are included
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the dates of acquisition.



Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the



15

##### Table of Contents

reporting period. Subsequent actual outcomes could differ from those estimated and assumed. The more significant estimates and assumptions used by management
in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the reserves established for uncollectible accounts receivable, obsolete and slow moving inventory and certain accrued liabilities.



Inventories - Inventories, consisting of products purchased for resale, are stated at
the lower of average cost or market value. Market values are based on the net realizable value of the products.



Intangible Assets -Intangible assets consist of goodwill and are included in other assets, net of amortization. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is no longer amortized, but is evaluated for impairment and written down, if appropriate, and intangible assets with estimated useful lives continue to be amortized.



Revenue Recognition- Sales are recorded upon shipment of products to customers.
Revenue from freight charged to customers is recognized when products are shipped. Provisions for customer returns and allowances are recorded in the period the related sales are recorded.



Advertising - The cost of direct response catalog advertising is deferred and
amortized over the period of expected revenues. Direct response catalog advertising consists primarily of catalog production expenses and related postage costs. Revenue from catalogs is earned over varying time periods, but the largest catalogs are
generally effective for less than a year.



Income Taxes - The liability
method is used to calculate deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using applicable tax
rates, and on tax carryforwards.



Stock-Based Compensation The
Company records stock option awards in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The Company estimates the fair value of stock option awards in accordance with
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and discloses the resulting estimated compensation effect on net income on a pro forma basis for all periods presented.



Fiscal Year - The Companys fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal year end 2003 ends on December 27,
2003. The 2002 fiscal year ended on December 28, 2002.

Item 3. Quantitative & Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



Interest Rate Risk



As described in the
notes to the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, the Company maintains a collateralized bank financing agreement, which provides up to a $15 million revolving line of credit maturing on June 30, 2006. Interest is charged at the prime
rate, plus or minus 25 basis points or, at the option of the Company, at the LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.0% depending on the financial leverage of the Company. In February 2002, the Company purchased a 30-month interest rate cap
in the notional amount of $3.0 million with a cap rate of 4.0% to hedge against an increase in interest rates. At September 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, the fair value of the interest rate cap was $0. The Company does not expect changes in
interest rates to have a material effect on income or cash flows in fiscal 2003, although there can be no assurances that interest rates will not significantly change.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures



The
Companys management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-4(c)
and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective
as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the
Companys internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the quarter covered by this report.
