Note 3
- ------
The Company entered into an accounts receivable securitization
program in June 2000 which provides for the sale of the Company's trade
accounts receivables to a wholly owned, bankruptcy remote, special purpose
subsidiary, Graybar Commerce Corporation. The trade accounts receivable
purchases are financed through the issuance of commercial paper under a
revolving liquidity facility. Under the securitization program, Graybar
Commerce Corporation has granted a security interest in its trade accounts
receivable. The trade accounts receivable sold to Graybar Commerce
Corporation under the program are fully consolidated in trade receivables in
the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Borrowings outstanding under the
securitization program at June 30, 2002 were $25 million and are included in
short-term borrowings in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The
Company has $250 million available for additional borrowing under the
program at June 30, 2002. The program expires in June 2003.
Note 4
- ------
On January 1, 2002 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
Under SFAS 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets will no
longer be amortized but rather will be tested annually for impairment. The
effect of amortization expense related to goodwill on net income in prior
periods was not material. As of June 30, 2002 the Company has completed
its initial impairment test and concluded that there is no impact on
earnings or the financial position of the Company based on the results.
Note 5
- ------
Comprehensive income is reported in the Consolidated Statements of
Changes in Shareholders' Equity. Comprehensive income for the quarters ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $2,622 and $8,479, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
(Dollars Stated in Thousands)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Net sales in the first six months of 2002 were 20.9% lower than in
the first six months of 2001. The lower net sales resulted from a generally
depressed economy in the market sectors in which the Company operates. The
decrease in communications market sales when comparing the first six months
of 2002 to the first six months of 2001 was significantly more than the
decrease in sales in the electrical market.
Gross margin in the first six months of 2002 decreased 18.5%
compared to the first six months of 2001 primarily due to decreased sales in
the electrical and communications markets.
The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in the
first six months of 2002 compared to the first six months of 2001 occurred
largely because of adjustments in personnel complement and reductions in
compensation and related expenses of approximately $35,000, including a
reduction in the Company's rate of accrued contribution to the profit
sharing and savings plan.
Interest expense decreased in the first six months of 2002 compared
to the first six months of 2001 primarily due to lower interest rates on
short-term borrowings and decreased levels of short-term borrowings required
to finance lower levels of inventory and receivables.
Other income includes service charges for special services provided
to one customer of $1,629 and $2,179 and gains on sale of property of $0 and
$2,549 in the first six months of 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The combined effect of the decreases in gross margin and other
income, together with the increase in depreciation and amortization and
decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses and interest
expense, resulted in a decrease in pretax earnings of $19,022 in the first
six months of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
(Dollars Stated in Thousands)
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
- ---------------------------------
At June 30, 2002, current assets exceeded current liabilities by
$489,207, down $24,739 from December 31, 2001. The current assets at June
30, 2002 were sufficient to meet the cash needs required to pay current
liabilities. The reduction in accounts receivable from December 31, 2001 to
June 30, 2002 resulted primarily from the decrease in sales experienced by
the Company. The average number of days of sales in accounts receivable has
decreased during the first six months of 2002. Merchandise inventory levels
were lower at June 30, 2002 when compared to December 31, 2001 inventory
levels due largely to continuing reductions in specific inventory carried to
support customer contract agreements.
The Company is going to convert its existing computer systems to an
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system over the course of the next
several years. The project is currently in the application design and
development stage, and the Company expects to begin implementation of the
new system in early 2003. The total project costs are expected to be
approximately $90,000. The Company plans to fund the project through a
combination of equipment leases and working capital. Project costs through
June 30, 2002 are approximately $24,000, of which $18,937 has been capitalized.
The Company expects that conversion to the new ERP system will provide future
benefits to its results of operations. The Company does not have any other
plans or commitments that would require significant amounts of additional
working capital.
At June 30, 2002, the Company had available to it unused lines of
credit amounting to $621,641. These lines are available to meet short-term
cash requirements of the Company. Short-term borrowings outstanding during
2002 through June 30 ranged from a minimum of $45,228 to a maximum of
$216,779.
The Company has funded its capital requirements from operations,
stock issuances to its employees and long-term debt. During the first six
months of 2002, cash provided by operations amounted to $94,570 compared to
$183,944 cash provided by operations in the first six months of 2001. Cash
provided from the sale of common stock and proceeds received on stock
subscriptions amounted to $14,922 in the first six months of 2002.
Additional cash of approximately $276 will be provided in the remainder of
2002 as a result of payments to be made for stock subscribed to by employees
under the 2001 Common Stock Purchase Plan.
Capital expenditures for property for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $28,401 and $27,911, respectively. Purchases of
treasury stock for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were
$3,185 and $2,901, respectively. Dividends paid for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $10,111 and $9,881, respectively.
