Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

(in thousands, unless otherwise indicated)

1. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which are comprised only of normal recurring accruals and the use of estimates) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Owens & Minor, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (we, us or our) as of September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, and the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

On March 31, 2010, we effected a three-for-two stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock in the form of a stock dividend of one share of common stock for every two shares outstanding to stockholders of record on March 15, 2010. All share and per-share data (except par value) have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split for all periods presented.

In January 2009, we exited our direct-to-consumer diabetes supply (DTC) business. Accordingly, the DTC business is presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented, and unless otherwise noted, all amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, including note disclosures, contain only information related to our continuing operations.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

2. Fair Value

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1) or, if quoted market prices or dealer quotes are not available, on the borrowing rates currently available to us for loans with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2). See Note 5 for the fair value of long-term debt.

Property held for sale is reported at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value less selling costs, with fair value determined based on recent sales prices for comparable properties in similar locations (Level 2). Property held for sale of $8.9 million at September 30, 2010, and $11.5 million at December 31, 2009, is included in other assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. We are actively marketing the property for sale; however, the ultimate timing is dependent on local market conditions.

3. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets at September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, are as follows:

Customer
Relationships

Intangibles

At September 30, 2010:

Net intangible assets

$ 24,561 $ 1,024 $ 25,585

At December 31, 2009:

Gross intangible assets

$ 31,300 $ 4,631 $ 35,931

Accumulated amortization

(5,187 ) (2,935 ) (8,122 )

Net intangible assets

$ 26,113 $ 1,696 $ 27,809

7


Table of Contents

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $0.8 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and $2.3 million and $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.

Based on the current carrying value of intangible assets subject to amortization, estimated amortization expense for the next five years is as follows: remainder of 2010 – $0.8 million; 2011 – $2.8 million; 2012 – $2.1 million; 2013 – $2.1 million, 2014 – $2.1 million and 2015 – $2.1 million.

4. Retirement Plans

The components of net periodic pension cost of our retirement plans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, are as follows:

Recognized net actuarial loss

330 214 990 639

Net periodic pension cost

$ 1,540 $ 966 $ 4,620 $ 2,897

During the first nine months of 2010, we contributed $8.3 million to the defined benefit pension plan in conjunction with a plan of termination approved by our Board of Directors in December 2009. Additional contributions may be required in late 2010 or early 2011 to complete final termination. We estimate that additional contributions will not exceed $1 million.

5. Debt

We have $200 million of senior notes outstanding, which mature in April 2016 and bear interest at 6.35% payable semi-annually (Senior Notes). We may redeem the Senior Notes in whole or in part, at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes or the present value of remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 0.25%. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $204.0 million and $196.3 million, and the related carrying amount was $205.0 million and $205.7 million at September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009.

On June 7, 2010, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A and a syndication of banks (the “Credit Agreement”). This agreement replaced an existing $306 million revolving credit facility (which was to expire in May 2011) with a $350 million revolving credit facility which expires on June 7, 2013. Under the new facility, we have the ability to request two one-year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate commitments by up to $150 million. The interest rate on the new facility, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on, at our discretion, the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on our leverage ratio (Credit Spread), as defined by the Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 37.5 and 62.5 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage, including on a pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. At September 30, 2010, we had $10.5 million of letters of credit and no borrowings outstanding, leaving $339.5 million available for borrowing.

6. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $20.1 million and $57.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, compared to $18.8 million and $50.9 million for the comparable periods in 2009. The effective tax rate was 38.9% and 39.2% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, compared to 35.2% and 37.5% for the same periods of 2009. The lower effective tax rates in the 2009 periods are primarily the results of recognizing tax benefits totaling approximately $1.7 million due to the conclusion of audits by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the company’s 2007 and 2006 income tax returns in the third quarter of 2009.

8. Shareholders’ Equity

The number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options or achievement of certain performance criteria, vesting of other stock awards, and the number of shares reserved for issuance under our share-based compensation plan and shareholder rights agreement were proportionately increased for the three-for-two stock split, described in Note 1, in accordance with terms of the respective plans. This stock split was recorded by a transfer of $42.1 million from paid-in capital to common stock, representing a $2 par value for each additional share issued. The number of authorized common shares remained at 200 million, and the number of authorized preferred shares, none of which have been issued, remained at 10 million.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

We have contractual obligations that are required to be paid to customers in the event that certain contractual performance targets are not achieved as of specified dates, generally within 36 months from inception of the contract. These contingent obligations total $6.5 million as of September 30, 2010. If none of the performance targets are met as of the specified dates, and customers have met their contractual commitments, payments will be due as follows: Remainder of 2010 – $0.2 million; 2011 – $2.4 million; 2012 – $1.0 million and 2013 – $2.9 million. None of these contingent obligations were accrued at September 30, 2010, as we do not consider any of them probable. We deferred the recognition of revenues that are contingent upon the company’s future performance under the terms of these contracts. As of September 30, 2010, $1.4 million of deferred revenue related to outstanding contractual performance targets is included in other accrued liabilities.

We also have contracts with performance targets that, if met, will result in additional fees. We recognize revenues for these contracts when the fees have been earned and are no longer subject to contingent obligations. These contracts have terms ranging from 12 to 36 months.

The state of California is conducting an administrative review of certain ongoing local sales tax incentives that may be available to us. As a result of this review, we may receive tax incentive payments of up to $1.05 million per quarter for all or some of the period beginning with the third quarter of 2007 and through final resolution of this matter. The exact amount, if any, is dependent upon a number of factors, including the timing of negotiation and execution of certain customer agreements, the variability in sales and company operations in California. We believe this matter may be resolved in 2011.

Prior to exiting the DTC business, we received reimbursements from Medicare, Medicaid, and private healthcare insurers for certain customer billings. We are subject to audits of these reimbursements for up to seven years from the date of the service.

10. Discontinued Operations

In January 2009, we sold assets of the DTC business to Liberty Healthcare Group, Inc., a subsidiary of Medco Health Solutions, Inc. for $63.0 million in cash and recognized a gain on sale of $3.2 million. The following table provides summary financial information for the DTC business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

We incurred charges associated with exiting the DTC business during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. These charges were related to the valuation of accounts receivable, as we entered into an agreement with a third party during the first quarter of 2009 to pursue the collection of remaining accounts receivable; losses on the disposal of other remaining assets; costs associated with leased facilities; and payroll costs, including severance.

11. Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information for: Owens & Minor, Inc., on a combined basis; the guarantors of Owens & Minor, Inc.’s Senior Notes; and the non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Senior Notes. Separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because the guarantors are jointly, severally and unconditionally liable under the guarantees and we believe the condensed consolidating financial information is more meaningful in understanding the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the guarantor subsidiaries.

12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There has been no change in our significant accounting policies from those contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, except as discussed below.

In the first quarter of 2010, we adopted a Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) relating to disclosures about fair value measurements. This ASU clarified existing guidance for disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques used in estimating fair value measurements, requires additional disclosures for significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, and requires a reconciliation of Level 3 activity to be presented on a gross basis. The adoption of this update had no impact on our financial position and results of operations or disclosures.

In the first quarter of 2010, we adopted an ASU that provided additional guidance relating to the evaluation and disclosure of subsequent events. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In July 2010, FASB issued an ASU requiring increased disclosures related to financing receivables. We will adopt this guidance when it becomes effective in the fourth quarter of 2010. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have an impact on our financial statements.

In October 2009, FASB issued an ASU for multiple deliverable revenue arrangements. The update requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The update eliminates the residual method of revenue allocation and requires revenues to be allocated using the relative selling price method. We will adopt this update prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning January 1, 2011. We are evaluating the impact of adoption of this update on our financial position and results of operations.

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

The following discussion and analysis describes material changes in the financial condition of Owens & Minor, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (we, us, or our) since December 31, 2009. Trends of a material nature are discussed to the extent known and considered relevant. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, related notes thereto, and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Results of Operations

Third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared with 2009

Overview. Operating earnings were $55.3 million for the third quarter of 2010, a decrease of 2.4% from $56.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, operating earnings were $156.6 million, an increase of 7.6% from $145.5 million for the first nine months of 2009. Net income decreased to $31.5 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared with $34.7 million for the third quarter of 2009, and increased to $88.8 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared with $72.3 million in the same period of 2009. Income from continuing operations per diluted common share was $0.50 for the third quarter of 2010, a decrease from $0.55 for the same period of 2009. Income from continuing operations per diluted common share was $1.40 for the first nine months of 2010, an increase from $1.35 in the same period of 2009.

Stock Split. On March 31, 2010, we effected a three-for-two stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock in the form of a stock dividend of one share of common stock for every two shares outstanding to stockholders of record on March 15, 2010. All share and per-share data (except par value) have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split for all periods presented.

Divestiture. In January 2009, we exited our direct-to-consumer diabetes supply (DTC) business. Accordingly, the DTC business is presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements.

Financial Highlights . The following table presents highlights from our consolidated statements of income on a percentage of revenue basis:

Three Months Ended
September 30,
Nine Months Ended
September 30,
2010 2009 2010 2009

Gross margin

9.58 % 10.04 % 9.59 % 9.77 %

Selling, general and administrative expense

6.56 % 6.99 % 6.68 % 7.10 %

Operating earnings

2.68 % 2.79 % 2.59 % 2.43 %

Income from continuing operations

1.53 % 1.70 % 1.47 % 1.41 %

Revenue. Revenue increased to $2.06 billion for the third quarter of 2010 from $2.03 billion for the third quarter of 2009. The increase in revenue resulted from greater sales of products and services to existing customers of $46 million (a growth rate of 2.5%) and to new customers of $65 million, totaling $111 million, which were partially offset by a decrease in sales to lost customers of $82 million.

Revenue increased to $6.05 billion for the first nine months of 2010 from $6.00 billion for the comparable period in 2009. The increase in revenue for this period was due to greater sales of products and services to existing customers of $149 million (a growth rate of 2.8%) and to new customers of $167 million, totaling $316 million, which were partially offset by a decrease in sales to lost customers of $260 million.

We believe that revenue growth for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 was adversely impacted by unfavorable economic conditions and the related effect on hospital utilization trends.

Gross margin. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased 46 basis points for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009. Gross margin dollars decreased 3.2% to $197.7 million for the third quarter of 2010 from $204.3 million for the third quarter of 2009. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2009 benefitted from the positive impact of supplier price changes, which resulted in an $11.5 million credit in our provision for last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory valuation, as well as the recognition of previously deferred revenue of $1.6 million resulting from the achievement of performance targets related to customer contracts. The resulting decreases in gross margin dollars in the third quarter of 2010 were partially offset by an increase in gross margin dollars from greater sales to customers and from supplier incentives.

Gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased 18 basis points for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Gross margin dollars decreased $5.3 million to $580.4 million for the first nine months of 2010 from $585.7 million for the same period of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a higher LIFO provision of $3.5 million, resulting from greater supplier price increases, and a reduction in gross margin dollars from our acute-care distribution customers (lower percentage margin partially offset by the impact of higher revenue). The decrease was partially offset by revenue from our third-party logistics business in the first nine months of 2010.

We value inventory under the LIFO method. Had inventory been valued under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, gross margin as a percentage of revenue would have been 14 basis points greater for the first nine months of 2010 and 8 basis points greater for the first nine months of 2009.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. SG&A expenses decreased 4.8% to $135.3 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared with $142.2 million for the third quarter of 2009. SG&A expenses decreased $3.1 million for labor costs, including incentive compensation expense, $3.0 million for information technology outsourcing and consulting primarily related to technology infrastructure enhancements, and $0.9 million in Burrows acquisition transition-related expenses. These decreases in SG&A expenses were partially offset by an increase of $1.1 million for costs incurred relating to providing third-party logistics services.

SG&A expenses decreased 5.0% to $404.1 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared with $425.5 million for the first nine months of last year. SG&A expenses decreased $9.6 million for labor costs, including incentive compensation expense, $6.9 million for information technology outsourcing and consulting related to technology infrastructure enhancements, $2.0 million for delivery costs and $1.7 million resulting from a lower provision for losses on accounts and notes receivable. Additionally, SG&A expenses in the first nine months of 2009 included $4.2 million in Burrows acquisition transition-related expenses. These decreases in SG&A expenses were partially offset by increases of $3.7 million for costs incurred related to our third-party logistics business. The decrease in incentive compensation expense for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared with last year reflects estimated lower achievement of annual performance targets.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.7 million for the third quarter and $2.8 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared with the same periods of 2009. These increases were primarily due to amortization of computer software related to technology infrastructure enhancements, technology for our third-party logistics business, and distribution center voice-pick technology, as well as amortization of leasehold improvements for our third-party logistics business and relocated distribution centers.

Other operating income, net. Other operating income, net, was $0.4 million and $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, including finance charge income of $0.6 million and $1.3 million. Other operating income, net was $1.7 million and $4.0 million for the first nine months of 2010 and 2009, including finance charge income of $1.6 million and $3.8 million.

Operating earnings. Operating earnings decreased in the third quarter of 2010 by 2.4% to $55.3 million compared with $56.7 million in 2009, and increased in the first nine months of 2010 by 7.6% to $156.6 million compared with $145.5 million in 2009. The decrease in operating earnings in the third quarter was primarily due to a decrease in gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in SG&A expenses. The increase in operating earnings in the first nine months was primarily driven by lower SG&A expenses partially offset by lower gross margin and higher depreciation and amortization.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net of interest earned on cash balances, was $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2010 and $10.6 million for the first nine months of 2010, increased from $3.2 million and $9.8 million for the comparable periods in 2009. Our effective interest rate was 6.7% on average borrowings of $209.6 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared to 6.0% on average borrowings of $220.0 million for the same period in 2009.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $20.1 million and $57.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, compared to $18.8 million and $50.9 million for the comparable periods in 2009. The effective tax rate was 38.9% and 39.2% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to 35.2% and 37.5% for the same periods of 2009. The lower effective tax rates in the 2009 periods are primarily the results of recognizing tax benefits totaling approximately $1.7 million from the conclusion of audits by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of our 2007 and 2006 income tax returns in the third quarter of 2009.

Income from continuing operations. Income from continuing operations decreased to $31.5 million for the third quarter of 2010 from $34.7 million for the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a decrease in operating earnings and an increase in income tax expense. Income from continuing operations increased to $88.8 million for the first nine months of 2010 from $84.8 million for the comparable period of 2009. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in operating earnings, partially offset by an increase in income tax expense.

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax. There was no income or loss from discontinued operations for the third quarters of 2010 and 2009 or for the first nine months of 2010. Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the first nine months of 2009 was $12.5 million, due to pre-tax charges associated with exiting the DTC business related to valuation of accounts receivable; losses on the disposal of remaining assets; costs associated with leased facilities; and payroll costs, including severance.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table presents highlights from our consolidated statements of cash flows:

(Dollars in millions)

For the nine months ended September 30,

2010 2009

Net cash provided by (used for) – continuing operations:

Operating activities

$ 214.5 $ 161.5

Investing activities

$ (24.7 ) $ (14.0 )

Financing activities

$ (139.4 ) $ (186.0 )

Net cash (used for) provided by discontinued operations

$ (1.5 ) $ 73.6

Financial condition. Accounts and notes receivable, net of allowances, increased 0.6% to $501.3 million at September 30, 2010, from $498.1 million at December 31, 2009 due to increased sales. Accounts receivable days outstanding (DSO), based on three months’ sales, were 21.3 days at September 30, 2010, and 21.4 days at December 31, 2009.

Merchandise inventories increased to $733.3 million at September 30, 2010, from $689.9 million at December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily due to changes in volume, including inventory buildup for new customers and normal fluctuations between periods. Average inventory turnover was 10.2 for the third quarter of 2010, 10.6 for the fourth quarter of 2009, and 10.5 for the third quarter of 2009, based on three months’ sales.

Liquidity and capital expenditures. In the first nine months of 2010, cash and cash equivalents increased by $48.9 million to $145.1 million at September 30, 2010. We generated cash from continuing operating activities of $214.5 million, compared to $161.5 million in the first nine months of 2009. Cash from continuing operating activities in the first nine months of 2010 and 2009 was positively affected by operating earnings and increases in accounts payable, partially offset by higher inventories. During the first nine months of 2010, we contributed $8.3 million to our defined benefit pension plan in conjunction with a plan of termination approved by the Board of Directors in December 2009. Additional contributions may be required in late 2010 or early 2011 to complete final termination. We estimate that additional contributions will not exceed $1 million.

Cash used for investing activities increased to $24.7 million in the first nine months of 2010 from $14.0 million in the same period of 2009. Capital expenditures were $27.1 million in the first nine months of 2010, compared to $23.4 million in the same period of 2009, primarily related to our strategic and operational efficiency initiatives, such as investments in leasehold improvements for our third party logistics business and relocated or expanded distribution centers and investments in voice-pick and customer-facing technology. Cash used for investing activities for the first nine months of 2009 included the receipt of a $7.0 million purchase price adjustment related to the Burrows acquisition.

Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2010 was $139.4 million, compared to $186.0 million used in the comparable period of 2009. During the first nine months of 2010, cash from continuing operations was used to reduce drafts payable by $108.3 million, to pay dividends of $33.5 million and to pay financing costs of $2.8 million. In the first nine months of 2009, cash from continuing operations and discontinued operations, along with $63.0 million of proceeds from the sale of the DTC business, was used to reduce our net borrowings under the revolving credit facility by $150.6 million. Dividends of $28.8 million were paid during the first nine months of 2009.

Cash used by operating activities of discontinued operations was $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2010, primarily related to lease payments, compared with $10.6 million cash received in the first nine months of 2009, which primarily related to the collection of accounts receivable, partially offset by the payment of costs associated with exiting the DTC business.

Capital Resources. Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents and a revolving credit facility. On June 7, 2010, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A and a syndication of banks (the “Credit Agreement”). This agreement replaced an existing $306 million revolving credit facility (which was to expire in May 2011) with a $350 million revolving credit facility which expires on June 7, 2013. The interest rate on the new facility, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on, at our discretion, the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on our leverage ratio (Credit Spread), as defined by the Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 37.5 and 62.5 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage. We had $10.5 million of letters of credit and no borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2010, leaving $339.5 million available for borrowing at that date.

We have $200 million of senior notes outstanding, which mature in 2016 and bear interest at 6.35%, payable semi-annually on April 15 th and October 15 th . We may redeem the senior notes in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the senior notes or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 0.25%. Our revolving credit facility and senior notes contain cross-default provisions which could result in the acceleration of payments due in the event of default of either agreement. We believe we were in compliance with our debt covenants at September 30, 2010.

We paid cash dividends on our common stock at the rate of $0.177 per share and $0.531 per share for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 and $0.153 per share and $0.459 per share for the same periods in 2009. We anticipate continuing to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. However, the payment of future dividends remains within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors.

We believe available financing sources, including cash generated from continuing operations and borrowings under the revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, long-term strategic growth, payments under long-term debt and lease arrangements, payments of quarterly cash dividends and other cash requirements. While we believe that we will have the ability to meet our financing needs in the foreseeable future, changes in economic conditions may impact (i) the ability of financial institutions to meet their contractual commitments to us, (ii) the ability of our customers and suppliers to meet their obligations to us or (iii) our cost of borrowing.

Forward-looking Statements

Certain statements in this discussion constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although we believe our expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of our business and operations, all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied by these statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, including, but not limited to:

general economic and business conditions;

our ability to implement strategic initiatives;

the availability of and modifications to existing supplier funding programs and our ability to meet the terms to qualify for certain of these programs;

our ability to adapt to changes in product pricing and other terms of purchase by suppliers of product;

dependence on sales to certain customers;

the ability of customers to meet financial commitments due to us;

our ability to retain existing customers and the success of marketing and other programs in attracting new customers;

changes in government regulations, including healthcare laws and regulations;

changes in manufacturer preferences between direct sales and wholesale distribution;

competition;

changing trends in customer profiles and ordering patterns;

our ability to meet customer demand for additional value-added services;

the risk that a decline in business volume or profitability could result in an impairment of goodwill or other long-lived assets;

our ability to timely or adequately respond to technological advances in the medical supply industry;

the risk that information systems are interrupted or damaged by unforeseen events or fail for any extended period of time;

our ability to successfully identify, manage or integrate acquisitions;

the costs associated with and outcome of outstanding and any future litigation, including product and professional liability claims; and

the outcome of outstanding tax contingencies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We provide credit in the normal course of business to our customers and are exposed to losses resulting from nonpayment or delinquent payment by customers. We perform initial and ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain reserves for estimated credit losses. We measure our performance in collecting customer accounts receivable in terms of days sales outstanding (DSO). At September 30, 2010, accounts and notes receivable, net of allowances, were approximately $501 million, and DSO was 21.3 days, based on three months’ sales. A hypothetical increase in DSO of one day would result in a decrease in our cash balances, an increase in borrowings against our revolving credit facility, or a combination thereof, of approximately $22 million.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates related to our revolving credit facility. We had no outstanding borrowings and $10.5 million in letters of credit under the revolving credit facility at September 30, 2010. A hypothetical increase in interest rates of 100 basis points would result in a potential reduction in future pre-tax earnings of approximately $0.1 million per year for every $10 million of outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2010. There has been no change in the company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Certain legal proceedings pending against us are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Through September 30, 2010, there have been no material developments in any legal proceedings reported in such Annual Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Certain risk factors that we believe could affect our business and prospects are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The risk factor entitled “Changes in the Healthcare Environment” set forth under Item 1A to Part I of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 has been revised and restated as follows:

Changes in the Healthcare Environment

O&M, our customers and our suppliers are subject to extensive federal and state regulations relating to healthcare as well as the policies and practices of the private healthcare insurance industry. In recent years, there have been a number of government and private initiatives to reduce healthcare costs and government spending. These changes have included an increased reliance on managed care; consolidation of competitors, suppliers and customers; and the development of larger, more sophisticated purchasing groups. All of these changes place additional financial pressure on healthcare providers, who in turn seek to reduce the costs and pricing of products and services provided by us. We expect the healthcare industry to continue to change significantly and these potential changes, which may include a reduction in government support of healthcare services, adverse changes in legislation or regulations, and reductions in healthcare reimbursement practices, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

In March 2010, Congress passed and President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and related Reconciliation Bill, which includes a variety of healthcare reform provisions and requirements that will become effective at varying times from 2010 to 2018. This healthcare reform legislation includes, among other things, provisions for expanded Medicaid eligibility and access to healthcare insurance as well as increased taxes and fees on certain corporations and medical products. The uncertainties surrounding the components of this legislation and the impact of its implementation on the healthcare industry may have an adverse effect on both customer purchasing and payment behavior and supplier product prices and terms of sale, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
