INDUSTRIAL DISTRIBUTION GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2001

Industrial Distribution Group, Inc. ("IDG" or the "Company"), a Delaware
corporation, was formed on February 12, 1997 to create a nationwide supplier of
cost-effective, flexible procurement solutions for manufacturers and other users
of maintenance, repair, operating, and production (MROP) products. The Company
conducts business in 37 states and two foreign countries, providing product
expertise in the procurement and application of MROP products to a wide range of
industries.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are
prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and
footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States for complete financial statements are not included herein. The Company
believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these interim
statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the
current year presentation.

The quarterly and year-to-date results for the period ended September 30, 2000
were restated as discussed in note 13 of the Company's financial statements and
notes thereto, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2000, Commission File Number 001-13195.

The interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and notes thereto, included in its Annual Report on Form
10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138, which
addresses the accounting for derivative instruments. SFAS No. 133 is effective
for financial statements for the Company's fiscal quarters beginning on January
1, 2001. The Company's adoption of SFAS No. 133 has not had a significant effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to
have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual
impairment tests in accordance with the Statement. Other intangible assets will
continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

The Company will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other
intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002. During 2002, the
Company will apply the non-amortization provisions and perform the first of the
required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as
of January 1, 2002. The Company has not yet determined what the effect the
statement will have on the earnings and financial position of the Company.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.
The statement provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be
disposed of. The Company is still evaluating what effect the new standard will
have on the financial statements.

3. CREDIT FACILITY

In December 2000, the Company entered into a $100,000,000 revolving credit
facility with a five financial institution syndicate. The facility expires on
March 31, 2004 and has a first security interest in the assets of the Company's
business units. The agreement provides that the facility may be used for
operations and acquisitions, and provides $5,000,000 for swinglines and
$10,000,000 for letters of credit. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility
bear interest at either the lead bank's corporate rate or LIBOR, as selected by
the Company from time to time, plus applicable margins. This rate was 6.8% at
September 30, 2001.

The amounts outstanding under the current facility at September 30, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 were $47,000,000 and $49,429,000, respectively, which have
been classified as long-term liabilities. Additionally, the Company had
outstanding letters of credit for $2,654,000 at September 30, 2001. The
revolving credit facility contains various covenants pertaining to the
maintenance of certain financial ratios. These covenants include requirements
for interest coverage, net worth, and capital expenditures, among other
restrictions. The covenants also prohibit the payment of cash dividends. The
Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2001 and
December 31, 2000.

4. CAPITAL STOCK

During the third quarter of 2001, the Company issued 43,854 shares of its common
stock through its employee stock purchase plan.

Options are to be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
("EPS") where the options' exercise price is less than the average market price
of the common shares during the period. There was no dilutive effect of the
options outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 to
the weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating
diluted EPS. During the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, options
where the exercise price exceeded the average market price of the common shares
totaled 1,376,978 and 1,299,515, respectively.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to various claims and legal actions which arise in the
ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution
of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is based upon the historical financial results of the
Company. In this discussion, most percentages and dollar amounts have been
rounded to aid presentation; as a result, all such figures are approximations.
References to such approximations have generally been omitted.

This discussion may contain certain forward-looking statements concerning the
Company's operations, performance, and financial condition, including, in
particular, the likelihood of the Company's success in developing and expanding
its business. These statements are based upon a number of assumptions and
estimates that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
include, but are not limited to, the successful integration and profitable
management of acquired businesses, improvement of operating efficiencies, the
availability of working capital, the Company's ability to grow internally
through expansion of services and customer bases, the Company's ability to
reduce overhead, the continuation of key supplier relationships, the Company's
ability to compete successfully in the highly competitive and diverse MROP
market, the Company's ability to maintain key personnel, the availability of key
personnel for employment by the Company, and other factors discussed in more
detail under "Item 1-Business" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
fiscal 2000.

Net sales decreased $9.8 million or 7.4% from $133.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 to $123.9 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. The sales decrease is due to production curtailments,
layoffs, and plant closures at customer sites across the Company's broad
customer base that are occurring as customers adapt to the continuing softness
in the economy. The Company believes sales lost due to the events of September
11, 2001 were approximately $0.7 million.

Cost of sales decreased $7.1 million or 6.8% from $103.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 to $96.4 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased from
77.4% in 2000 to 77.8% in 2001. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of
sales is attributable to a change in total company sales mix, competitive
pricing pressures, and lower vendor rebates due to lower purchasing volume.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $2.5 million or 8.6%
from $28.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $26.2
million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net
sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 21.4% to
21.2%. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expense is due to
the impact of the Company's ongoing headcount and cost reduction initiatives
undertaken during the first three quarters of 2001. Personnel costs decreased
for the three months ended September 30, 2001 by $2.1 million from the prior
year, after severance charges of $.3 million. The $2.1 million decrease was
driven by the Company reducing total headcount by 7.8% from September 30, 2000
to September 30, 2001, and furloughs in September, which accounted for $.5
million of the $2.1 million reduction. The remaining costs savings were
partially offset by a $.5 million increase in bad debt expense over the prior
period.

Operating income decreased $0.3 million or 20.3% from $1.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 to $1.2 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased
from 1.2% in 2000 to 1.0% in 2001.

months ended September 30, 2000 to $391.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. The sales decrease is due to production curtailments,
layoffs, and plant closures at customer sites across the Company's broad
customer base that are occurring as customers adapt to the continuing softness
in the economy.

Cost of sales decreased $16.8 million or 5.2% from $320.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 to $304.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales increased from
77.4% in 2000 to 77.7% in 2001. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of
sales is attributable to a change in total company sales mix, competitive
pricing pressures, and lower vendor rebates due to lower purchasing volume.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $2.4 million or 2.7%
from $87.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $85.4 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net sales,
selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 21.2% to 21.8%. As
of September 30, 2001, the Company's total headcount was reduced by 7.8% as
compared to September 30, 2000, resulting in net savings of $2.0 million, after
incurring $.8 million of severance expense, during the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. Excluding these severance costs, selling, general, and
administrative expenses were $84.6 million or 21.6% of sales for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001. The remainder of the selling, general, and
administrative expense reduction is the result of cost reduction initiatives in
the areas of travel and entertainment, telephone, and other miscellaneous
expenses.

months ended September 30, 2000 to $2.1 million for the nine months ended
