WESCO INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

WESCO International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "WESCO"),
headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is a full-line distributor of
electrical supplies and equipment and is a provider of integrated supply
procurement services. WESCO currently operates over 350 branch locations and
five distribution centers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico,
Guam, the United Kingdom, Nigeria, Singapore and Venezuela.


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of WESCO and all of its subsidiaries and have been prepared in
accordance with Rule 10-01 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in WESCO's 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31,
2002, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 and the unaudited condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31 2002, in the
opinion of management, have been prepared on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for the
fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. All adjustments
reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements are of a normal
recurring nature. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." This statement addresses financial accounting
and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets
to be disposed of and supersedes SFAS No. 121. This statement retains the
fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for recognition and measurement of the
impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held and used or
newly acquired. This statement was adopted by WESCO as of January 1, 2002. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the results of
operations or financial position of WESCO.

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Effective January 1, 2002, WESCO adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business
Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Under
SFAS No. 141, all business combinations are accounted for under the purchase
method. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortized, but will be reduced
if it is found to be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or
more frequently when events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill
might be impaired. As required by this statement, management is currently
evaluating its goodwill for impairment but has not yet fully completed its
analysis. However, WESCO does not expect to have a transitional impairment.

In conformity with SFAS No. 142, the results of prior periods have not been
restated. The following is a reconciliation of WESCO's income before
extraordinary item, net income and earnings per share for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001.

5. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION

Under its accounts receivable securitization program ("Receivables
Facility"), WESCO sells, on a continuous basis, to WESCO Receivables
Corporation, a wholly-owned, special purpose company ("SPC"), an undivided
interest in all domestic accounts receivable. The SPC sells without recourse to
a third-party conduit all the eligible receivables while maintaining a
subordinated interest, in the form of overcollateralization, in a portion of the
receivables. WESCO has agreed to continue servicing the sold receivables for the
financial institution at market rates; accordingly, no servicing asset or
liability has been recorded.

As of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, securitized accounts
receivable totaled approximately $359 million and $398 million, respectively, of
which the subordinated retained interest was approximately $65 million in both
periods. Accordingly, approximately $294 million and $333 million of accounts
receivable balances were removed from the consolidated balance sheets at March
31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. WESCO reduced its accounts
receivable securitization program by $39.2 million in 2002. Costs associated
with the Receivables Facility totaled $1.5 million and $6.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, respectively. These
amounts are recorded as other expenses in the consolidated statements of
operations and are primarily related to the discount and loss on the sale of
accounts receivables, partially offset by related servicing revenue.

The key economic assumptions used to measure the retained interest at
the date of the securitization for securitizations completed in 2002 were a
discount rate of 2% and an estimated life of 1.5 months. At March 31, 2002, an
immediate adverse change in the discount rate or estimated life of 10% and 20%
would result in a reduction in the fair value of the retained interest of $0.1
million and $0.3 million, respectively. These sensitivities are hypothetical and
should be used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value
based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because
the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not
be linear. Also, in this example, the effect of a variation in a particular
assumption on the fair value of the retained interest is calculated without
changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in
changes in another.

8. LONG-TERM DEBT

In March 2002, WESCO Distribution, Inc. entered into a $290 million
revolving credit agreement that is collateralized by substantially all inventory
owned by WESCO and also by the accounts receivable of WESCO Distribution Canada,
Inc. Availability under the agreement, which matures in 2007, is limited to the
amount of eligible inventory and Canadian receivables applied against certain
advance rates. Proceeds from this agreement were used to retire WESCO
Distribution, Inc.'s existing revolving credit facility. Interest on this new
facility is at LIBOR plus a margin that will range between 2.0% to 2.75%
depending upon the amount of excess availability under the facility. As long as
the average daily excess availability for both the preceding and projected
succeeding 90 day period is greater than $50 million, WESCO would be permitted
to make acquisitions and repurchase outstanding public stock and bonds.

The above permitted transactions would also be allowed if such excess
availability is between $25 million and $50 million and WESCO's fixed charge
coverage ratio, as defined by the agreement, is at least 1.25 to 1.0 after
taking into consideration the permitted transaction. Additionally, if WESCO's
excess availability under the agreement is less than $50 million, WESCO must
maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0.

(1) Deferred taxes were remeasured during the current quarter reflecting
the cumulative impact of a change in the expected tax rate that will be
applicable when the deferred tax items reverse.

(2) Includes the impact of adjustments for certain tax liabilities and the
effect of differences between the recorded provision and the final
filed tax return for the prior year.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
information in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included herein and WESCO International Inc.'s Financial
Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations included in its 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

GENERAL
WESCO is a full-line distributor of electrical supplies and equipment
and is a provider of integrated supply procurement services. WESCO currently
operates over 350 branch locations and five distribution centers in the United
States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Guam, the United Kingdom, Nigeria,
Singapore and Venezuela. WESCO serves over 100,000 customers worldwide, offering
over 1,000,000 products from over 24,000 suppliers. WESCO's diverse customer
base includes a wide variety of industrial companies; contractors for
industrial, commercial and residential projects; utility companies, and
commercial, institutional and governmental customers. Approximately 90% of
WESCO's net sales are generated from operations in the U.S., 9% from Canada and
the remainder from other countries.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Recent developments affecting the results of operations and financial
position of WESCO include the following:

In March 2002, WESCO Distribution, Inc. entered into a $290 million
revolving credit agreement that is collateralized by substantially all inventory
owned by WESCO and also by the accounts receivable of WESCO Distribution Canada,
Inc. Availability under the agreement, which matures in 2007, is limited to the
amount of eligible inventory and Canadian receivables applied against certain
advance rates. Proceeds from this agreement were used to retire WESCO
Distribution, Inc.'s existing revolving credit facility. Interest on this new
facility is at LIBOR plus a margin that will range between 2.0% to 2.75%
depending upon the amount of excess availability under the facility. As long as
the average daily excess availability for both the preceding and projected
succeeding 90 day period is greater than $50 million, WESCO would be permitted
to make acquisitions and repurchase outstanding public stock and bonds.

The above permitted transactions would also be allowed if such excess
availability is between $25 million and $50 million and WESCO's fixed charge
coverage ratio, as defined by the agreement, is at least 1.25 to 1.0 after
taking into consideration the permitted transaction. Additionally, if WESCO's
average excess availability under the agreement is less than $50 million, WESCO
must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0.

At March 31, 2002, amounts available under the agreement were
approximately $47.4 million, the average daily excess availability was over $50
million and WESCO was in compliance with all covenants of the new facility.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First Quarter of 2002 versus First Quarter of 2001

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales
of certain items in WESCO's condensed consolidated statements of operations for
the periods presented:

</TABLE>




14
Net Sales. Net sales in the first quarter of 2002 decreased $119.2
million to $808.9 million compared with $928.1 million in the prior year
quarter, primarily due to decreases attributable to WESCO's core business. Core
business net sales decreased approximately 13.6% from the prior year quarter.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the first quarter of 2002 decreased
$21.5 million to $145.6 million from $167.1 million in the first quarter of 2001
due principally to the decline in net sales. Gross profit margin was 18.0% in
both the first quarter of 2002 and 2001. In 2002, billing margins increased
approximately 20 basis points but were offset by lower levels of supplier
rebates and cash discounts when compared with the prior year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased $14.8 million, or 10.8%, to $122.1
million. SG&A expenses associated with WESCO's core business decreased $16.6
million. The decrease was due principally to compensation and benefit program
expense reductions in the quarter to quarter comparison. Permanent employee
headcount has been reduced approximately 10% compared to the prior year first
quarter. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased to 15.1% compared
with 14.7% in the prior year quarter reflecting the negative leverage of lower
sales volume.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased
$2.2 million to $5.2 million reflecting the discontinuation of goodwill
amortization based on WESCO's adoption of SFAS 142. Depreciation and
amortization expense in 2001 included $2.8 million for amortization of goodwill.
Capitalized software amortization and depreciation increased $0.6 compared to
first quarter of 2001.

Interest and Other Expense. Interest expense totaled $10.9 million for
the first quarter of 2002, a decrease of $0.1 million from the same period in
2001. Other expense totaled $1.4 million and $6.1 million in the first quarter
of 2002 and 2001, respectively, reflecting costs associated with the accounts
receivable securitization program. The $4.7 million decrease was due to
decreased fees and a lower level of securitized accounts receivable.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense totaled $1.5 million in the first
quarter of 2002 and the effective tax rate was 25.2%. In the first quarter of
2001, income tax expense totaled $2.4 million and the effective tax rate was
40.5%. The 2002 effective tax rate differs from the 2001 effective rate because
deferred taxes were remeasured during the current quarter reflecting the
cumulative impact of a change in the expected tax rate that will be applicable
when the deferred tax items reverse. The change in estimate was primarily due to
state tax reduction initiatives. In addition, the impact of SFAS 142 and foreign
tax credits contributed to the reduction in the effective rate.

Income Before Extraordinary Item. For the first quarter of 2002, income
before extraordinary item totaled $4.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share,
compared with $3.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share in first quarter of 2001.
The increase in earnings results from lower SG&A, Depreciation and amortization
and Other expenses offset somewhat by lower gross profit.

Net Income. For the first quarter of 2002, net income totaled $3.8
million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared with $3.5 million and $0.07 per
diluted share, in the first quarter of 2001. Net income includes a $0.7 million
extraordinary item net of tax, related to a charge incurred when WESCO replaced
its revolving credit agreement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total assets were $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion at March 31, 2002 and
December 31, 2001, respectively. In addition, stockholders' equity was $148.7
million at March 31, 2002 compared to $144.7 million at December 31, 2001. Debt
was $509.7 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $452.0 million at December
31, 2001, an increase of $57.7 million.

An analysis of cash flows for the first three months of 2002 and 2001
follows:

Operating Activities. Cash used by operating activities totaled $98.2
million in the first three months of 2002, compared to cash provided of $19.3
million in the prior year. In connection with WESCO's asset securitization
program, cash used by operations in 2002 includes $39.2 million used by our
accounts receivable securitization program. Excluding this transaction, cash
used by operating activities was $59.0 million in 2002 compared to cash provided
of $19.3 million in 2001. On this basis, the $78.3 million decrease in operating
cash flow was primarily due to an increase in cash utilized to reduce accounts
payable offset somewhat by reductions in accounts receivable and inventory.



15
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.7
million in the first three months of 2002, compared to $43.8 million in 2001.
Cash used for investing activities was higher in 2001 due to $41.4 million in
cash paid for acquisitions. WESCO's capital expenditures for the three months of
2002 were for computer equipment and software and branch and distribution center
facility improvements.

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities totaled
$52.5 million for the first three months of 2002 reflecting net borrowings of
$55.4 million. In the first three months of 2001, cash provided by financing
activities totaled $6.7 million primarily reflecting increased borrowings.

In March 2002, WESCO Distribution, Inc. entered into a $290 million
revolving credit agreement that is collateralized by substantially all inventory
owned by WESCO and also by the accounts receivable of WESCO Distribution Canada,
Inc. At March 31, 2002, amounts available under the agreement were approximately
$47.4 million, and WESCO was in compliance with all covenants of the new
facility.

WESCO's liquidity needs arise from seasonal working capital
requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions and debt service obligations.
In addition, certain of our acquisition agreements contain earn-out provisions
based principally on future earnings targets. The most significant of which
relates to the acquisition of Bruckner Supply Company, which provides for an
earn-out potential of $80 million during any one of the next three years if
certain earnings targets are achieved. WESCO paid $10 million pursuant to this
agreement in April 2002 related to 2001 performance. The maximum amount payable
in any single year under this agreement is $30 million. Certain other
acquisitions also contain contingent consideration provisions, only one of which
could require a significant payment. Management estimates this payment could
range from $0 to $20 million and would be made in 2008. To meet its funding
requirements, WESCO uses a mix of internally generated cash flow, its revolving
credit facility, its Receivables Facility and equity transactions.

At March 31, 2002 WESCO's securitized accounts receivable balance
totaled $290.8 million.

As of April 30, 2002, WESCO has purchased $32.8 million of common stock
pursuant to the WESCO International share repurchase program, since its
inception. WESCO did not repurchase any shares under this program during the
quarter ended March 31, 2002.

Management believes that cash generated from operations, together with
amounts available under the credit agreement and the receivables facility, will
be sufficient to meet WESCO's working capital, capital expenditures and other
cash requirements for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance,
however, that this will be the case. Financing of acquisitions can be funded
under the existing credit agreement and may, depending on the number and size of
acquisitions, require the issuance of additional debt and equity securities.

As discussed above, WESCO refinanced its revolving credit facility in
March 2002. The new facility matures in 2007. As a result of this refinancing
and increased borrowings during the quarter ended March 31, 2002, WESCO is
contractually obligated to repay $124 million in 2007 and is no longer obligated
to repay $68.4 million in 2004.

Other than the revolving credit facility refinancing, there have been
no material changes in WESCO's contractual cash obligations and other commercial
commitments during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 that would require an update
to the disclosure provided in WESCO's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2001.

INFLATION
The rate of inflation, as measured by changes in the consumer price
index, did not have a material effect on the sales or operating results of the
Company during the periods presented. However, inflation in the future could
affect the Company's operating costs. Price changes from suppliers have
historically been consistent with inflation and have not had a material impact
on the Company's results of operations.

SEASONALITY
WESCO's operating results are affected by certain seasonal factors.
Sales are typically at their lowest during the first quarter due to a reduced
level of activity during the early part of the year due to the cold and
unpredictable weather. Sales increase during the warmer months beginning in
March and continuing through November due to favorable conditions for
construction and the tendency of companies to schedule maintenance and capital
improvement spending during the middle and latter part of the year. Sales drop
again slightly in December as the





16
weather cools and also as a result of reduced level of activity during the
holiday season. As a result, WESCO reports sales and earnings in the first and
fourth quarters that are generally lower than that of the remaining quarters.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Effective January 1, 2002, WESCO adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business
Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Under
SFAS No. 141, all business combinations are accounted for under the purchase
method. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortized, but will be reduced
if it is found to be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or
more frequently when events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill
might be impaired. As required by this statement, management is currently
evaluating its goodwill for impairment but has not yet fully completed its
analysis. However, WESCO does not expect to have a transitional impairment.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." This statement addresses financial accounting
and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets
to be disposed of and supersedes SFAS No. 121. This statement retains the
fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for recognition and measurement of the
impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held and used or
newly acquired. This statement was adopted by WESCO as of January 1, 2002. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the results of
operations or financial position of WESCO.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
From time to time in this report and in other written reports and oral
statements, references are made to expectations regarding the future performance
of WESCO. When used in this context, the words "anticipates," "plans,"
"believes," "estimates," "intends," "expects," "projects" and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not
all forward-looking statements contain such words. Such statements including,
but not limited to, WESCO's statements regarding its business strategy, growth
strategy, productivity and profitability enhancement, new product and service
introductions and liquidity and capital resources are based on management's
beliefs, as well as on assumptions made by, and information currently available
to, management, and involve various risks and uncertainties, certain of which
are beyond WESCO's control. WESCO's actual results could differ materially from
those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of WESCO.
In light of these risks and uncertainties there can be no assurance that the
forward-looking information will in fact prove to be accurate. Factors that
might cause actual results to differ from such forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, an increase in competition, the amount of
outstanding indebtedness, the availability of appropriate acquisition
opportunities, availability of key products, functionality of information
systems, international operating environments and other risks that are described
in WESCO's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 which
are incorporated by reference herein. WESCO has undertaken no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

Except as discussed below, there have not been any material changes to
WESCO's exposures to market risk during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 that
would require an update to the disclosures provided in WESCO's Form 10-K for the
year-ended December 31, 2001.

At March 31, 2002 the net fair value of interest-rate-related
derivatives designated as fair value hedges of debt was $1.6 million.
