CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

Forward-Looking Statements

Management may from time-to-time make
written or oral statements with respect to the Companys annual or long-term goals, including statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2009,
Reports on Form 8-K, and reports to shareholders that are forward-looking statements within the meaning, and subject to the protections of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those currently anticipated or projected. Management cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any of the Companys forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date made.

Words such as anticipates, expects, intends,
plans, believes, seeks, estimates, may, could, assumes, should, indicates, projects, targets and similar expressions
identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that involve risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:



| |  | Managements expectation that the Companys business strategies will have a positive impact on future periods;
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Managements expectation that cash flows from operations, in conjunction with borrowings under the revolving line of credit, capital markets,
and/or other financing arrangements will fund future working capital needs, capital expenditures, and the overall growth in the business; and its belief that the Company continues to be well positioned to weather the current crisis in the financial
markets;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Managements estimation and expectation of future payouts of long-term incentive compensation;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Managements belief that the outcome of legal proceedings or claims which are pending or known to be threatened will not have a material adverse
effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations; and
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Managements expectation that overall revenue growth will be lower than historical growth rates, due to current market conditions.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
management has identified important factors that could affect the Companys financial performance and could cause actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in
any current statements about the Companys goals or expectations. The Companys future results could be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including those discussed in Item 1A-Risk Factors in the Companys 2009
Form 10-K and this Form 10-Q. In addition, all forward-looking statements that are made by or attributable to the Company are qualified in their entirety by and should be read in conjunction with this cautionary notice and the risks described
or referred to in Item 1A-Risk Factors of the Companys 2009 Form 10-K and this Form 10-Q. The Company has no obligation to and does not undertake to update, revise, or correct any of the forward-looking statements after the
date of this report, or after the respective dates on which such statements are made.

PSS WORLD MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JANUARY 1, 2010 AND JANUARY 2, 2009

(In Thousands,
Except Share and Per Share Data, Unless Otherwise Noted)



|1. | BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|-- | ------------------------------------

The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions about future events 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 reporting period.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the
consolidated accounts of PSS World Medical, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company conducts business through two operating segments, the Physician Business and the Elder Care Business. These strategic segments serve a broad customer base. A third segment, Corporate
Shared Services, includes allocated and unallocated costs of corporate departments which support the operating activities and various initiatives of the operating segments, and engage in certain other operating and administrative activities.

The consolidated balance sheet as of March 27, 2009 has been derived from the Companys audited consolidated financial statements
for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2009, except as noted in the Reclassificationsection below and Footnote 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements.The financial statements and related notes included in this report should be read in
conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2009.

The Company reports its
year-end and quarter-end financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the Friday closest to calendar month end, determined using the number of business days. Fiscal years 2010 and 2009 consist of 53 weeks or
258 selling days and 52 weeks or 253 selling days, respectively. The three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 consisted of 61 and 193 selling days, respectively, while the three and nine months ended January 2, 2009 consisted of 66
and 193 selling days, respectively. From time to time, the Company includes sales per billing day in its reporting to assist the reader in analyzing performance and growth rates.

The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this report may not be indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year or any other interim periods.

Change in Accounting Estimate

Equity-Based Long-Term Compensation

The Company has grants of performance-based restricted stock which require the use of
certain estimates. Estimates of the Companys future performance and participant forfeiture rates are utilized to determine the number of shares which will ultimately be received by participants. During the nine months ended January 1,
2010, the Company revised its estimate of expected performance and related forfeiture rates based on current information available, actual financial and operating results, operating plans, forecasts prepared by management, and environmental and
market risks. Refer to Footnote 7, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional information. The Company recognized this change in estimate prospectively in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (ASC 250).

This change increased the amount of compensation expense recognized during the nine months ended January 1, 2010 by $7,826.

Cash-Based Incentive Compensation

The Company maintains long-term and short-term
cash-based incentive plans for employees. For interim periods, estimates of the Companys future performance are utilized to determine the expected amounts to be paid under the plans. During the nine months ended January 1, 2010, the
Company revised its estimate of expected performance as discussed under Equity-Based Long-Term Compensation above. Refer to Footnote 7, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional
information. The Company recognized this change in estimate prospectively in accordance with ASC 250. This change increased the amount of compensation expense recognized during the nine months ended January 1, 2010 by $4,968.

Reclassification

Certain items previously
reported in combined financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Stock
Repurchase Program

On March 31, 2009, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the purchase of its outstanding common shares.
The Company is authorized to repurchase up to a maximum of 5% of its total common stock, or approximately 3.0 million common shares. Repurchases can be made in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, and other transactions
that will be disclosed publicly through filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This authorization is in addition to any shares remaining available under existing repurchase programs. During the three months ended January 1,
2010, the Company repurchased 0.9 million shares of common stock at an average price of $20.58 per common share for $18,956. The share repurchase programs do not have an expiration date.

The following table summarizes the common stock repurchases and Board of Directors authorizations during the period from March 27, 2009 to
January 1, 2010.

|2. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
|-- | --------------------------------

In June
2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles  Overall(ASC 105-10). ASC 105-10 establishes the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification(the Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of
authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will no longer issue new
standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will
serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the
Codification.

##### Table of Contents

In February 2008, the FASB issued guidance which delayed the effective date of ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurement and Disclosure(ASC 820) with respect to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities not remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, or the Companys
fiscal year 2010. The Company has applied the requirements of ASC 820 with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In April 2008, the FASB issued guidance in ASC 350, Intangibles  Goodwill and Other that amends the factors to be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine
the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the disclosure requirements. The new guidance requires that an entity consider its historical experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements in determining the useful life of a
recognized intangible asset. Determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset applies prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The disclosure requirements will be applied prospectively to all intangible
assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, the effective date. The new guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year 2010, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The Company has adopted this standard with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion and, as required, was retrospectively applied to all prior periods for
which applicable convertible debt was outstanding. The new guidance located in ASC 470-20, Debt  Debt with Conversion and Other Options(ASC 470-20),requires entities with convertible debt instruments that may be
settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) to separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that reflects interest expense at a rate equal to an estimate of the entitys nonconvertible debt
borrowing rate. The equity components of the senior convertible notes are included in Additional paid-in capital in theUnaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a corresponding reduction in the carrying values
of these convertible notes as of the date of issuance or modification, as applicable. The reduced carrying values of the convertible notes are accreted to principal through the recognition of non-cash interest expense. This accretion results in
additional interest expense on these borrowings at effective rates approximating nonconvertible debt with otherwise similar terms. ASC 470-20 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, or
the Companys fiscal year 2010. The Company adopted this standard during the current year. Refer to Footnote 4, Debt, for additional information.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified guidance on determining whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entitys own stock, located in ASC 815-40, Derivative and Hedging 
Contract in Entitys Own Stock(ASC 815-40). ASC 815-40 requires that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock,
including evaluating the instruments contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. ASC
815-40 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year 2010. This pronouncement was adopted during the current year with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial
condition or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of
activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. This standard, located in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure provides additional guidance for estimating
fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. This standard also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. This standard is effective for
interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was adopted with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10-50, Financial Instruments  Overall  Disclosureon interim disclosures on fair value of
financial instruments. This guidance requires summarized disclosures on fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies. This standard is effective for interim reporting periods ending after
June 15, 2009. The Company has adopted this guidance with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations. Applicable disclosures have been provided in Footnote 11, Fair Value
Measurement.

##### Table of Contents

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance within ASC 855, Subsequent Events. This guidance establishes
general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It sets forth (i) the period after the balance sheet date during
which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or
transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The guidance is effective for interim
or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was adopted with no material effect on the Companys statement of financial condition or results of operations. Applicable disclosures have been provided in Footnote 14,
Subsequent Events.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair
Value (ASU 2009-05). This update provides amendments to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure for the fair value measurement of liabilities when a quoted price in an active market is not available. ASU 2009-05 is effective
for reporting periods beginning after August 28, 2009. This pronouncement was adopted during the current period with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.



|3. | EQUITY INVESTMENT
|-- | -----------------

Fiscal Year 2010

In April 2009, the Company sold its remaining investment in athenahealth, Inc. (athena) for $10,681, resulting in a gain of
$3,635, or $2,254 net of tax, recorded in Other income, neton the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 27, 2009, the aggregate fair value of the investment was $10,592, with
cumulative unrealized holding gains of $3,547. The Company previously classified this investment as available-for-sale in accordance with ASC 320, Investments  Debt and Equity Securities.

Fiscal Year 2009

During the nine months
ended January 2, 2009, the Company sold a portion of its investment in athena, resulting in a gain of $444, or $275 net of tax, recorded in Other income, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations. Proceeds of $22,098 were received during the nine months ended January 2, 2009 related to the sale of athena stock during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009 and the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008.



|4. | DEBT
|-- | ----

In August 2008, the Company
issued $230.0 million principal amount 3.125% senior convertible notes, which mature on August 1, 2014 (the 2008 Notes). Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each
year. The notes will be convertible into cash up to the principal amount of the notes and shares of the Companys common stock for any conversion value in excess of the principal amount under certain circumstances. The ability of note holders
to convert is assessed on a quarterly basis and is dependent on the trading price of the Companys stock during the last 30 trading days of each quarter (Contingent Conversion Trigger). The Contingent Conversion Trigger was not met
during the three months ended January 1, 2010; therefore, the notes may not be converted. As of January 1, 2010 and March 27, 2009, the fair value of the 2008 Notes was approximately $273,516 and $203,486, respectively.

During fiscal year 2004, the Company issued $150.0 million principal amount 2.25% senior convertible notes (the 2004 Notes). On
March 15, 2009, the holders of $149.98 million in principal face value 2.25% senior convertible notes exercised the notes put option, requiring the Company to purchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued
and unpaid interest.

Convertible Debt Restatement

On March 28, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 470-20, Debt  Debt with Conversion and Other Options(ASC 470-20) which required retrospective restatement (See Footnote 1,
Background and Basis of Presentation). The following illustrates the impact of adopting the guidance on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 and
January 2, 2009:

Convertible Note Hedge Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2008 Notes, the Company also entered into convertible note hedge transactions with respect to its common stock (the
purchased options) with a major financial institution (the counterparty). The purchased options cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially identical to those in the notes, approximately 10.8 million shares
of common stock at a strike price that corresponds to the initial conversion price of the notes, also subject to adjustment, and are exercisable at each conversion date of the notes. The purchased options will expire upon the earlier of (i) the
last day the notes remain outstanding or (ii) the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the notes.

The purchased options are intended to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the notes in the event that the market value per share of the common stock, as measured under the notes, at the time of exercise is greater than
the conversion price of the notes. The options have been accounted for as an adjustment to the Companys Additional paid in capital, net of deferred tax assets of $20,993 which are recorded in Other long term
assets on theUnaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The purchased options are separate transactions, entered into
by the Company with the counterparty, and are not part of the terms of the notes. Holders of the notes will not have any rights with respect to the purchased options.

Warrant Transactions

The Company also entered into warrant transactions (the warrants), whereby the Company sold to the counterparty warrants to acquire, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, up to
10.8 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $28.29 per share of common stock. The warrants will expire after the purchased options in approximately ratable portions on a series of expiration dates commencing on
November 3, 2015.

If the market value per share of the common stock, as measured under the warrants, exceeds the strike price of the
warrants, the warrants will have a dilutive effect on the Companys earnings per share. The warrants have been accounted for as an adjustment to the Companys stockholders equity and recorded in Additional paid in
capital on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The warrants are separate transactions, entered into by the
Company with the counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the notes. Holders of the notes do not have any rights with respect to the warrants.

Interest Rate Swap Agreement

During fiscal year 2008, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement which matures
on February 19, 2010. The purpose of this swap agreement is to hedge the variable interest rate of its asset-based revolving line of credit (the Credit Agreement). The notional amount of the swap is $50.0 million. The interest rate
swap effectively fixes the interest rate on a portion of the revolving line of credit to 2.70%, plus an applicable margin as determined by the Credit Agreement. The interest rate swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge.Therefore,
changes in fair value are recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income. See Footnote 6, Comprehensive Income,for additional information. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company makes
monthly interest payments based on the fixed rate and receives monthly interest payments based on one-month LIBOR. The changes in market value of this financial instrument are highly correlated with changes in market value of the hedged item both at
inception and over the life of the agreement. Amounts received or paid under this interest rate swap agreement are recorded as reductions or additions to interest expense.

|5. | EARNINGS PER SHARE
|-- | ------------------

Basic and diluted
earnings per share are presented in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock using
the treasury stock method and the potential impact of outstanding convertible senior notes. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an antidilutive effect.

The following table sets forth computational data for the denominator in the basic and diluted earnings per common share calculation for the three and nine
months ended January 1, 2010 and January 2, 2009:

|(a) | There were no antidilutive options outstanding at January 1, 2010. Options to purchase approximately 200,000 shares of outstanding common stock at January 2,
2009 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options inclusion would be antidilutive.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(b) | The assumed conversion of the 2008 Notes was not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010, as
the Companys average stock price for the period did not exceed the conversion price.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In accordance with ASC 260,
Earnings Per Share, the 2008 Notes will have no impact on diluted earnings per share until the Companys average common stock price, as defined, exceeds the conversion price of $21.22 per share. Prior to conversion, the Company will
include the effect of the additional shares that may be issued if its common stock price exceeds $21.22 per share, using the treasury stock method. If the price of the Companys common stock exceeds $28.29 per share, it will also
include the effect of the additional potential shares that may be issued related to the warrants, using the treasury stock method. Prior to conversion, the purchased options are not considered for purposes of the dilutive earnings per share
calculation as their effect is considered to be anti-dilutive.

|7. | INCENTIVE AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
|-- | --------------------------------------

Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to employees and non-employee directors. The Company measures stock-based compensation at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the
award, and recognizes the cost as compensation expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the awards estimated vesting period. The Companys stock-based compensation expense is recorded in General and
administrative expenses on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Restricted Stock Awards

The Company issues (i) restricted stock which vests based on the recipients continued service over time (Time-Based
Awards) and (ii) restricted stock or restricted stock units which vest based on the Company achieving specified performance measurements (Performance-Based Awards).

Time-Based Awards

The Company measures the fair value of Time-Based Awards on the date of grant based on the closing stock price. The related compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis net of estimated forfeitures over the vesting period.

Performance-Based Awards

On June 5, 2009, the Companys Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee), approved awards of
performance-based restricted stock units (Performance Shares) and performance-accelerated restricted stock units (PARS Units) to the Companys top six officers. These awards were granted under the Companys
2006 Incentive Plan.

Fiscal Year 2010 Issuances

The Performance Shares will vest after three years and convert to shares of common stock based on the Companys achievement of certain
earnings per share growth targets, the calculation of which will not be impacted by any change in generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by standard setting bodies. These awards, which are denominated in terms of a target number
of shares, will be forfeited if performance falls below a designated threshold level and may vest for up to 250% of the target number of shares for exceptional performance. The ultimate number of shares delivered to recipients and the related
compensation cost recognized as expense will be based on actual performance.

The PARS Units will vest on the five-year
anniversary of the grant date and convert to shares of common stock, subject to accelerated vesting after three years if the Company achieves an earnings per share growth target, the calculation of which will not be impacted by any change in
generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by standard setting bodies. Upon vesting, the grantee may defer acceptance of the units to a later date, whereas the units will remain outstanding.

Fiscal Year 2010 Change in Estimate

During the nine months ended January 1, 2010, the Company changed the number of estimated shares to be delivered on previously issued awards due to an increase in estimated achievement of performance
conditions based on actual and expected future financial performance above previous estimates. The change in estimate increased Performance Shares outstanding by 292,000 shares.

Due to a change in estimated achievement of performance conditions based on actual and expected future financial performance above previous
estimates, PARS awards issued during fiscal years 2008 and 2009 are now estimated to vest on the three-year anniversary of the grant date. As such, the Company adjusted the forfeiture rate related to certain PARS awards to reflect a reduction in
expected forfeitures over the remaining vesting period.

These estimates may be adjusted in future periods based on actual
experience and changes in management assumptions.

As a result of the change in accounting estimates, stock based compensation
expense increased $1,319 ($818 net of tax), or $0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended January 1, 2010 and $7,826 ($4,852 net of tax), or $0.08 per diluted share for the nine months ended January 1, 2010.

Total stock-based compensation expense during the three months ended January 1, 2010 and January 2, 2009 was approximately $3,204 and $1,444,
respectively, with related income tax benefits of $1,217 and $549, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense during the nine months ended January 1, 2010 and January 2, 2009 was approximately $13,158 and $5,593, respectively,
with related income tax benefits of $4,995 and $2,125, respectively.

As of January 1, 2010, there was $16,218 of unrecognized
compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the stock incentive plans. The compensation cost related to these non-vested restricted stock grants is expected to be recognized over a weighted
average period of 1.5 years.

Income tax benefits of $1,302 and $1,664 associated with tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation
expense are presented as a cash inflow from financing activities for the nine months ended January 1, 2010 and January 2, 2009, respectively.

Certain Officer Long-Term Executive Cash-Based Incentive Plans

During fiscal year 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the 2008 Shareholder Value Plan (2008 SVP), a cash
based performance award program under the 2006 Incentive Plan. The performance period under the 2008 SVP is the 36-month period from March 31, 2008 to March 25, 2011. As a result of an increase in accounting estimate related to
expected achievement of long-term performance measures related to the 2008 SVP, long-term incentive based compensation expense increased $357 or $222 net of tax for the three months ended January 1, 2010 and increased $1,919, $1,190 net of tax,
or $0.02 per diluted share for the nine months ended January 1, 2010. The Company had approximately $5,378 and $1,937 of accrued compensation cost related to the 2008 SVP as of January 1, 2010 and March 27, 2009, respectively.

Short-term Cash-Based Incentive Compensation

As a result of a change in accounting estimate related to fiscal year 2010 financial performance, corporate annual short-term incentive based compensation expense increased $1,016, $630 net of tax, or
$0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended January 1, 2010 and increased $3,049, $1,891 net of tax, or $0.03 per diluted share for the nine months ended January 1, 2010.

Deferred
Compensation Program

The Company offers a deferred compensation program (the Program) to qualified executives, management, and
sales representatives. The Program consists of a deferred compensation plan and also previously consisted of a stock option program. Under the deferred compensation plan, participants can elect to defer up to 100% of their total compensation;
however, the Company matching contribution program only applies to deferrals of up to 10% or 15% of the participants compensation. The Companys matching contribution ranges from 10% to 125% of the participants deferral. Participant
contributions are always 100% vested. The Companys matching contribution vests in 20% increments beginning after participating in the plan for 4 years and becomes fully vested after participating in the plan for 8 years.

As of January 1, 2010 and March 27, 2009, the cash surrender value of the corporate-owned life insurance policies, which is recorded in
Other assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $71,111 and $51,549, respectively. In addition, the deferred compensation liability, which is recorded at fair value in Other

|9. | SEGMENT INFORMATION
|-- | -------------------

The Companys
reportable segments are strategic businesses that offer products and services to different segments of the healthcare industry, and are the basis on which management regularly evaluates the Company. These segments are managed separately based on the
unique product and service offering required by the markets they serve. The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based on net sales and income from operations. Corporate Shared Services allocates a portion of its costs and
interest expense to the operating segments. The allocation of shared operating costs is generally proportionate to the revenues of each operating segment. Interest expense is allocated based on an internal carrying value of historical capital used
to acquire or develop the operating segments operations. The following tables present financial information about the Companys business segments:

##### Table of Contents

The Company has various insurance policies, including product liability insurance, in amounts it considers
adequate. In many cases, in which the Company distributes products manufactured by others, the Company is provided indemnification by the manufacturer. There can be no assurance that the insurance coverage maintained by the Company is sufficient or
will be available in adequate amounts or at a reasonable cost, or that indemnification agreements will provide adequate protection for the Company, including agreements with foreign vendors.

Commitments and Other Contingencies

The
Company has employment agreements with certain executive officers which provide that in the event of their termination or resignation, under certain conditions, the Company may be required to pay severance to the executive officers in amounts
ranging from one-fourth to two times their base salary and target annual bonus. In the event that a termination or resignation follows or is in connection with a change in control, the Company may be required to pay severance to the executive
officers in amounts ranging from three-fourths to three times their base salary and target annual bonus. The Company may also be required to continue welfare benefit plan coverage for the executive officers following a termination or resignation for
a period ranging from three months to three years. Refer to Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional information.

If the
Physician Business or the Elder Care Business were to terminate a contract with a vendor of its Select Medical Products brand (Select) for any reason, the Company may be required to purchase the remaining inventory of Select products
from the vendor, provided that, in no event would the Company be required to purchase quantities of such products which exceed the aggregate amount of such products ordered by the Company in a negotiated time period immediately preceding the date of
termination. As of January 1, 2010, the Company had no material obligations to purchase inventory from Select vendors due to contract terminations.



|11. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
|--- | -----------------------

As discussed in
Footnote 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements,the Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,with respect to fair value measurements of (i) nonfinancial assets and liabilities and (ii) all financial
assets and liabilities.

This guidance provides a framework for measuring fair value, expands disclosures about fair value measurements, and
establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value summarized as follows:

Level 1:
Inputs using unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2: Inputs or other than quoted prices in markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

As of January 1, 2010, the fair value of the Companys financial assets and/or liabilities are measured using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. The
following table presents the Companys assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 1, 2010, by level within the fair value hierarchy:



|                         |  |         |        |         |   |       |  |   |

|(a) | Relates to the Companys interest rate swap on its revolving line of credit. The interest rate swap is valued using an internal model that utilizes as its basis
readily observable market inputs such as credit spreads, current market interest rates, and forward interest rates.

|(b) | Relates to the Companys obligation to pay benefits under its non-qualified deferred compensation plans, which is included in Other noncurrent
liabilities on the Companys Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The obligation to pay benefits is based off of participants allocation percentages to plan investments. The investments are measured using
quoted market prices.

The carrying amounts of the Companys financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents,
short-term trade receivables, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The gross carrying value of the Companys 2008 Notes at January 1, 2010 and March 27, 2009
was $230,000 and the fair value, which is estimated using a third party valuation model, was approximately $273,516 and $203,486, respectively.



|12. | INCOME TAXES
|--- | ------------

The Company classifies
interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. The total amount of accrued interest and penalties was approximately $475 as of March 27, 2009. There have been no material changes to this balance
during the nine months ended January 1, 2010.

The Company files a United States federal income tax return and income tax returns in
various states and foreign jurisdictions. With limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to the fiscal year ended April 1, 2005.

During the three months ended October 2, 2009, the IRS completed an examination of the Companys federal income tax returns for the years ended
March 31, 2006, March 30, 2007, and March 28, 2008. As a result, the Company agreed to changes to its taxable income that did not have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.

The Companys deferred tax asset and liability balances as of January 1, 2010 and March 27, 2009 are presented in the
following table:

|(a) | Current deferred tax assets are recorded in Other current assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The change in
accounting as discussed in Footnote 4,Debt, had no impact on the March 27, 2009 balance.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(b) | Noncurrent deferred tax liabilities are recorded in Other noncurrent liabilities on theUnaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
March 27, 2009 balance has been restated in accordance with the change in accounting as discussed in Footnote 4,Debt.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The change in Current deferred tax assets was due in part to the increase in the Companys accrued incentive compensation during fiscal year 2010.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE COMPANY

PSS World Medical, Inc. (the Company or PSSI), a Florida corporation, began operations in 1983. The Company is a national distributor of medical products and equipment, pharmaceutical products,
healthcare information technology and billing services to alternate-site healthcare providers including physician offices, long-term care and assisted living facilities, home health care and hospice providers through 39 full-service distribution
centers, which serve all 50 states throughout the United States (U.S.). The Company currently conducts business through two operating segments, the Physician Business and the Elder Care Business, which serve a diverse customer base. For
information on comparative segment revenue, segment profit and related financial information, refer to Footnote 9, Segment Information, of the consolidated financial statements.

PSSI is a market-leading company in the two alternate-site segments it serves as a result of value-added, solutions-based marketing
programs; a differentiated customer distribution and service model; a consultative sales force with extensive product, disease state, reimbursement, and supply chain knowledge; unique arrangements with manufacturers; a full line of the
Companys own brand, Select Medical Products® and specialty brand products (Select); innovative
information systems and technology that serve its core markets; and a culture of performance.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, consolidated net sales decreased 3.2% and decreased 1.2% and 7.7% in the Physician and Elder Care
Businesses, respectively, compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2009. The decline in sales was attributed to five less selling days during the current period compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Companys per selling
day revenue grew 4.8% during the three months ended January 1, 2010 when compared to the same quarter in prior year. Excluding H1N1/Swine flu-related products, the Companys per selling day revenue growth was lower than historical growth
levels, reflecting a general slowdown in market growth due to current economic conditions. The Company expects this slower growth rate to continue, given the current market.

Income from operations increased 1.0% or $0.3 million to $32.0 million during the three months ended January 1, 2010 and increased 24.5% or $18.1 million to $92.3 million during the nine months ended
January 1, 2010 when compared to the same periods in the prior year. This was the result of an increase in gross margin, due to product mix and gross margin improvement initiatives, and cost savings initiatives partially offset by an increase
in incentive compensation costs.

Cash flow from operations during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 was approximately
$14.1 million and $67.7 million, respectively. This was the result of operating income growth offset by an investment in inventory and timing of receivables and payables.

The following significant events impacted the Company during the nine months ended January 1, 2010:

Swine Flu Pandemic

During the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010, the Physician Business experienced increased
sales in influenza test kits, surgical masks, medical gloves and hand sanitizers, and other product categories related to the H1N1/Swine flu pandemic. As a result, the Company recognized approximately $20.3 million and $52.5 million in additional
net sales for the three and nine month periods, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Company does not expect the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010 to be similarly impacted by H1N1/Swine flu related product sales.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement

As discussed in Footnote 1, Background and Basis of Presentation, effective March 28, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 470-20, Debt  Debt with Conversion and Other Options and, as
required by this new standard the Company retrospectively applied this change in accounting to all prior periods for which the Company had applicable

outstanding convertible debt. As a result of the adoption, interest expense increased by $1.7 million ($1.0 million net of tax) and by $5.2 million ($3.2 million net of tax) for the three and
nine months ended January 1, 2010 and increased $3.4 million ($2.1 million net of tax) and $7.3 million ($4.5 million net of tax) for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2009, respectively. See Footnote 4, Debt, for
additional information.

Investment in athenahealth, Inc.

In April 2009, the Company sold its remaining investment in athenahealth, Inc. (athena), a leading provider of internet-based healthcare information technology and business services to
physician practices, for $10.7 million, resulting in a gain of $3.6 million ($2.3 million net of tax) recorded in Other income, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Footnote 3, Equity
Investment, for additional information.

Change in Incentive Compensation Estimate

Based on the financial results of the nine months ended January 1, 2010, management raised its expectations for probable achievement of performance
targets related to corporate incentive compensation plans. Due to the change in estimate, the Company recognized additional incentive-based compensation expense of $2.7 million and $12.8 million during the three and nine months ended January 1,
2010 and is expected to recognize an additional $2.7 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, offset by an expected decrease in accruals for incentive compensation related to the termination, by mutual agreement, of the employment of
the Companys former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. See Footnote 7, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional information.

Net sales during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 were impacted by momentum in the Companys strategic sales growth initiatives and
the effects from the H1N1/Swine flu pandemic, offset by five less selling days during the current period. Taking into consideration the reduction in selling days for the current quarter and the effect of the H1N1/Swine flu, average daily net sales
increased approximately 0.7% and 1.1% for the quarter and year-to-date periods compared to the same periods in prior year.

During the three
and nine months ended January 1, 2010, the Physician Business experienced increased sales in influenza test kits, surgical masks, medical gloves, hand sanitizer, and other products related to the H1N1/Swine flu pandemic. For the Branded and
Select product lines, net sales increased as a result of the H1N1/Swine flu by approximately $20.3 million and $52.5 million, during the three and nine month periods, respectively. The Company estimates the earnings per share impact for the three
and nine months ended January 1, 2010, to be $0.03 per diluted share and $0.08 per diluted share, respectively.

In addition to the
effect of the H1N1/Swine flu, Select product sales increased during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 due to the Companys continued focus on promoting its globally-sourced Select products, which resulted in new customer
sales as well as customer conversions from other manufacturer Branded products to Select brand products. Pharmaceutical sales decreased 10.0% during the three months ended January 1, 2010 due to less selling days as well as customer shift to
lower priced generic brand pharmaceuticals. Equipment sales were impacted by a decrease in discretionary spending and tight credit markets due to the current economic conditions.

During the first quarter fiscal year 2010, the Physician Business launched its Reach initiative to capture new customers which has resulted in approximately 15,500 new customers for the nine months ended
January 1, 2010 with approximately 9,700 customers continuing to purchase from the Company. The Company expects this strategic initiative to have a positive impact on growth rates for future periods.

Net sales during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 compared to the same period in
the prior year decreased approximately $12.5 million and increased approximately $11.0 million, respectively. Net sales in the nursing home and assisted living line of business were positively impacted by innovative customer-specific solution
programs, a focus on regional and independent customer segments, offset by five less selling days during the current quarter.

Net sales
growth in the hospice and home health care lines of business during the quarter reflected the continued successful execution of strategies to diversify its customer base through expansion in the home health care market and other non-facility based
care as well as net sales of approximately $1.0 million attributed to an acquisition made during the current quarter. The Companys net sales in billing services for the three months ended January 1, 2010 was positively impacted by sales
generated from an acquisition in the current fiscal year and Federal and state regulation changes which impacted the segments billing cycle during the current quarter. During the nine months ended January 1, 2010 net sales were negatively
impacted by decreases in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements.

Across its Elder Care customer segments, Select product sales decreased 6.3%
during the three months ended January 1, 2010, when compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was attributed to five less selling days in the current period. During the nine months ended January 1, 2010, Select product
sales increased 11.9% as a result of the Companys focus on promoting its globally sourced products which resulted in additional sales to new and existing customers.

GROSS PROFIT

In the Physician Business, gross profit dollars increased $1.7 million during
the three months ended January 1, 2010, while gross profit as a percentage of net sales (gross margin) increased 86 basis points when compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Gross profit dollars increased $28.1 million,
while gross margin increased 82 basis points on a year-to-date basis when compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases resulted from increased Branded and Select product sales as well as a shift to generic pharmaceutical sales,
which have higher margins.

In the Elder Care Business, gross profit dollars decreased $1.9 million during the three months ended
January 1, 2010, while gross margin increased 105 basis points, from the same quarter in the prior year. Gross profit dollars increased $4.0 million, while gross margin increased 18 basis points, on a year-to-date basis when compared to the
same period in prior year. Gross profit during the three months ended January 1, 2010 was negatively impacted by the decrease in sales during the quarter, while gross margins were positively impacted by an increase in ancillary billing service
revenue, which typically generate higher gross profit margins, as well as the Companys strategy to focus on gross margin improvement in fiscal year 2010. During the nine months ended January 1, 2010, gross profit dollars and gross margins
were positively impacted by an increase in sales of Select product.

Interest expense decreased during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010, compared to
the same period in prior year. This was due to the 2004 Notes and 2008 Notes outstanding during the prior fiscal year, while only the 2008 Notes were outstanding during the current fiscal year. The 2004 Notes were partially retired during the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2009. Interest income decreased during the three and nine months ended January 1, 2010 as a result of lower market rates.

Capital Resources

The capital and credit markets have recently experienced adverse conditions. The resulting restricted access to capital along with significant volatility in
the capital markets have increased the costs associated with issuing or refinancing debt because of increased risk spreads over relevant interest rate benchmarks. The Company continues to be well positioned; however, there can be no guarantee the
recent disruptions in the overall economy and the financial markets, if continued for an extended time period, will not adversely impact the business and results of operations.

The Company finances its business primarily through cash generated from operations, proceeds from the $230.0 million senior convertible notes offering (2008 Notes) and the
$200.0 million revolving line of credit. The ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations is dependent on the continued demand for the Companys products and services, and access to products and services from suppliers. Given
current operating, economic and industry conditions, management believes demand for products and services will grow at slower rates. The Companys capital structure provides the financial resources to support the business strategies of customer
service and revenue growth. The revolving line of credit, which is an asset-based agreement, is collateralized by the

##### Table of Contents

Companys accounts receivable and inventory. The Companys long-term priorities for use of capital are internal growth, acquisitions, and repurchase of the Companys common stock.

As the Companys business grows, its cash and working capital requirements are expected to increase. The Company expects the overall
growth in the business will be funded through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under the revolving line of credit, capital markets, and/or other financing arrangements.

Based on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors, the Company may seek to retire a portion of its
outstanding equity through cash purchases and/or reduce its debt. The Company may also seek to issue additional debt or equity to meet its future liquidity requirements. Such transactions may occur in the open market, privately negotiated
transactions, or otherwise. The amounts involved could be material.

Debt Rating

The Companys debt is rated by a nationally recognized rating agency, Standard and Poors Ratings Services (S&P). Companies that
have assigned ratings at the top end of the range have, in the opinion of the rating agency, the strongest capacity for repayment of debt or payment of claims, while companies at the bottom end of the range have the weakest capability.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, S&P upgraded the credit rating from BB to BB+ and issued an outlook of stable.
The Company also has issue ratings for its convertible debt. During fiscal year 2009, S&P upgraded the 2004 Notes rating from B+ to BB- and rated the issuance of the Companys 2008 Notes in August 2008
at BB-.

Agency ratings are subject to change, and there can be no assurance that a ratings agency will continue to
rate the Company or its debt, and/or maintain its current ratings. Management cannot predict the effect that a change in debt ratings will have on the Companys liquidity.

Convertible Note Hedge Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2008 Notes, the Company also entered into convertible note hedge transactions with respect to its common stock (the purchased options) with a major financial institution (the
counterparty). The purchased options cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially identical to those in the notes, approximately 10.8 million shares of common stock at a strike price that corresponds to the initial
conversion price of the notes, also subject to adjustment, and are exercisable at each conversion date of the notes. The purchased options will expire upon the earlier of (i) the last day the notes remain outstanding or (ii) the second
scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the notes.

The purchased options are intended to reduce the potential
dilution upon conversion of the notes in the event that the market value per share of the common stock, as measured under the notes, at the time of exercise is greater than the conversion price of the notes.

The purchased options are separate transactions, entered into by the Company with the counterparty, and are not part of the terms of the notes. Holders of
the notes will not have any rights with respect to the purchased options.

Warrant Transactions

The Company also entered into warrant transactions (the warrants), whereby the Company sold to the counterparty warrants to acquire, subject to
anti-dilution adjustments, up to 10.8 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $28.29 per share of common stock. The warrants will expire after the purchased options in approximately ratable portions on a series of expiration
dates commencing on November 3, 2015. The warrants have been accounted for as an adjustment to the Companys stockholders equity.

The warrants are separate transactions, entered into by the Company with the counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the notes. Holders of the notes do not have any rights with respect to the warrants.

##### Table of Contents

The purchased options and warrant contracts will generally have the effect of increasing the conversion
price of the 2008 Notes to approximately $28.29 per share, representing a 68.5% premium based on the closing sale price of the Companys common stock of $16.79 per share on August 4, 2008.

Impact on Diluted Weighted Average Shares

In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the 2008 Notes will have no impact on diluted earnings per share until the Companys average common stock price, as defined, exceeds the conversion price of $21.22 per share. Prior
to conversion, the Company will include the effect of the additional shares that may be issued if its common stock price exceeds $21.22 per share, using the treasury stock method. If the price of the Companys common stock exceeds
$28.29 per share, it will also include the effect of the additional potential shares that may be issued related to the warrants, using the treasury stock method.

The purchased options are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share prior to the conversion of the 2008 Notes, as their effect is considered anti-dilutive. As of January 1, 2010,
the purchased options were in the money, however, the value was not material as the average stock price for the current quarter was less than the strike price of $21.22. The exercise of the purchased options is restricted to each
conversion date of the 2008 Notes.

Future Contractual Obligations

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into obligations and commitments that require future contractual payments. There were no material changes outside the normal course of business from
the obligations reported as of March 27, 2009.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Critical Accounting Estimates are disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2009 filed on May 20, 2009
under the heading Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.There have been no material changes in the Companys Critical Accounting Estimates, as disclosed in the Annual
Report, outside of the long-term incentive compensation estimate change discussed below.

Incentive Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

As of
January 1, 2010, the Company has grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, time-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock outstanding.

Estimates are required to determine the number of share-based awards which will ultimately vest, and, in the case of performance-based restricted stock, estimates of the Companys goals. Changes in
the estimated forfeiture rate, differences between actual and estimated forfeitures when an award vests or changes in estimates regarding the Companys performance can have material effects on share-based compensation expense. For this reason,
management has determined that the estimates used to determine equity-based compensation expense are critical accounting estimates.

When
estimating the Companys expected earnings per share performance for performance-based restricted stock, the Company reviews the most current information available, including actual financial and operating results, operating plans, forecasts
prepared by management and environmental and market risks. These performance goals are re-assessed periodically throughout the service period. Such estimates are revised, if necessary, if they differ materially from the original assessment and may
have an impact on the vesting of an award. If actual performance differs significantly from managements estimates, it could have a material impact on equity-based compensation expense recognized in future years.

Based on the financial results of the nine months ended January 1, 2010, management revised its assessment for probable achievement of performance
conditions related to long-term incentive compensation plans. Management reviewed the current year results impacted by: (i) the impact of revenue growth programs (ii) the impact of implemented cost savings initiatives, (iii) the
increase in sales of H1N1/Swine flu related products, and (iv) the sale

of shares in athenahealth, as well as the potential impact on future earnings, and determined the cumulative impact of these events required the Company to adjust its estimate of probable
achievement of incentive compensation performance conditions, and to adjust the accruals related to these plans based on those estimates.

The
change in estimate increased the Companys fiscal year 2008 and 2009 performance shares by 292,000 shares. Additionally, PARS awards issued during fiscal years 2008 and 2009 are now estimated to vest on the three-year anniversary of the grant
date. As such, the Company adjusted the forfeiture rate related to certain PARS awards to reflect a reduction in expected forfeitures over the remaining vesting period. These estimates may be adjusted in future periods based on actual experience and
changes in management assumptions.

The change in estimate for these awards resulted in an increase in corporate stock-based
compensation expense of $1.3 million and $7.8 million during the current quarter and year-to-date periods and is expected to increase stock-based compensation expense by an additional $1.3 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010,
offset by an expected decrease in accruals for stock-based incentive compensation related to the termination of the employment of David A. Smith, the Companys former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, by mutual agreement. See Footnote 7,
Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional information.

Cash-Based Incentive Plans

The Company maintains short-term and long-term cash-based
incentive plans, for employees. The plans provide incentive to enhance shareholder value through the achievement of annual and cumulative earnings per share goals.

Estimates are required to determine the Companys expected future performance and cumulative earnings per share at the end of the annual and three-year performance periods. Changes in estimates
regarding the Companys performance can have a material effect on cash-based incentive compensation expense. For this reason, management has determined that the estimates used to determine the amounts accrued for cash-based compensation expense
are critical accounting estimates.

When estimating the Companys expected earnings per share performance, the Company reviews the most
current information available, including actual financial and operating results, operating plans, forecasts prepared by management and environmental and market risks. These performance goals are re-assessed throughout the service period. Such
estimates are revised, if necessary, if they differ materially from the original assessment. If actual performance differs significantly from managements estimates, it could have a material impact on cash-based compensation expense recognized
in future years.

Based upon current results and expected future results as discussed above, the Company recognized an additional $1.4
million and $5.0 million recognized in corporate compensation expense during the current quarter and year-to-date periods. As a result of this change in estimate compensation expense is expected to increase by an additional $1.4 million during the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, offset by an expected decrease in accruals for cash-based incentive compensation related to the termination of the employment of David A. Smith, the Companys former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, by
mutual agreement. See Footnote 7, Incentive and Stock-Based Compensation, and Footnote 14, Subsequent Events,for additional information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June
2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles  Overall(ASC 105-10). ASC 105-10 establishes the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification(the Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of
authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will no longer issue new
standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). The FASB will not consider



31



---

##### Table of Contents

ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the change(s)
in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.

In February 2008, the
FASB issued guidance which delayed the effective date of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure(ASC 820) with respect to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities not remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis
until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year 2010. The Company has applied the requirements of ASC 820 with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of
operations.

In April 2008, the FASB issued guidance in ASC 350, Intangibles  Goodwill and Other that amends the factors to be
considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the disclosure requirements. The new guidance requires that an entity consider its historical experience in renewing or
extending similar arrangements in determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. Determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset applies prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The disclosure
requirements will be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, the effective date. The new guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, or
the Companys fiscal year 2010, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted this standard with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion and, as required, was
retrospectively applied to all prior periods for which applicable convertible debt was outstanding. The new guidance located in ASC 470-20, Debt  Debt with Conversion and Other Options(ASC 470-20),requires entities
with convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) to separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that reflects interest expense at a rate equal to an estimate
of the entitys nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The equity components of the senior convertible notes are included in Additional paid-in capital in theUnaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a
corresponding reduction in the carrying values of these convertible notes as of the date of issuance or modification, as applicable. The reduced carrying values of the convertible notes are accreted to principal through the recognition of non-cash
interest expense. This accretion results in additional interest expense on these borrowings at effective rates approximating nonconvertible debt with otherwise similar terms. ASC 470-20 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year 2010. The Company adopted this standard during the current year. Refer to Footnote 4, Debt, for additional information.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified guidance on determining whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entitys own stock, located in
ASC 815-40, Derivative and Hedging  Contract in Entitys Own Stock(ASC 815-40). ASC 815-40 requires that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded
feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instruments contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option
valuation instruments on the evaluation. ASC 815-40 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year 2010. This pronouncement was adopted during the current year with no material effect on the
Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance on determining fair
value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. This standard, located in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure provides
additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. This standard also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly.
This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was adopted with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10-50, Financial Instruments  Overall  Disclosureon interim disclosures on fair value of
financial instruments. This guidance requires summarized disclosures on fair value of



32

##### Table of Contents

financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies. This standard is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has adopted
this guidance with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations. Applicable disclosures have been provided in Footnote 11, Fair Value Measurement.

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance within ASC 855, Subsequent Events. This guidance establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure
of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It sets forth (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate
events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its
financial statements and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The guidance is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009
and was adopted with no material effect on the Companys statement of financial condition or results of operations. Applicable disclosures have been provided in Footnote 14, Subsequent Events.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value (ASU 2009-05). This update
provides amendments to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure for the fair value measurement of liabilities when a quoted price in an active market is not available. ASU 2009-05 is effective for reporting periods beginning
after August 28, 2009. This pronouncement was adopted during the current period with no material effect on the Companys statements of financial condition or results of operations.



|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The Company believes there has been no material change in its exposure to market risk from that discussed in Item 7A in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27,
2009 filed on May 20, 2009.

Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys Principal Executive Officer
and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 240.13a-15(e) and 240.15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date). Based on the evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date,
the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the
Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the
Companys Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Companys internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended January 1, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

Issuer Sales and Purchases of Equity Securities

The Company repurchases its common stock
under stock repurchase programs authorized by the Companys Board of Directors. As of March 27, 2009, there were 0.1 million shares available for repurchase under existing stock repurchase programs. On March 31 2009, the
Companys Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company, depending upon market conditions and other factors, to repurchase up to a maximum of 5% of its common stock, which is approximately 3.0 million
common shares, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase programs do not have an expiration date.

The following table summarizes the Companys repurchase activity during the three months ended January 1, 2010.
