“Our sales teams delivered results within our planned range, including record
quarterly sales for POS & Barcode and Security products worldwide,” said Mike
Baur, CEO, ScanSource, Inc. “In addition, our North America Communications
team achieved record sales results for the quarter.”

For the quarter ended December 31, 2012, net sales decreased 4.5% to $747.7
million, compared with $782.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011.
Excluding the translation impact of foreign currencies, net sales decreased
3.1% year-over-year. Operating income decreased to $24.4 million from $32.1
million in the comparable prior year quarter. The effective tax rate decreased
to 34.0% in the current quarter from 34.7% in the prior year quarter. Net
income for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $16.4 million, or $0.59 per
diluted share, compared with net income of $21.4 million, or $0.77 per diluted
share, for the prior year quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended December
31, 2012 included $2.1 million pre-tax ($1.4 million after-tax) in one-time
costs associated with the Company's attaining compliance with local Belgian
tax matters. These costs include the replacement of certain personnel in the
Company's Belgian office and related severance costs, as well as tax accruals
and professional fees. Excluding the one-time costs associated with personnel
replacement in the Company's local Belgian office, including related tax
compliance and professional fees, adjusted net income for the quarter ended
December 31, 2012 totaled $17.8 million, or $0.64 per diluted share.

Forecast for Next Quarter

The Company announced its current expectations for the third quarter of fiscal
2013. ScanSource expects that net sales for the quarter ending March 31, 2013
could range from $675 million to $695 million, and diluted earnings per share
could be in the range of $0.48 to $0.50 per share.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains comments that are “forward-looking” statements
that involve risks and uncertainties; these statements are subject to the safe
harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any
number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from anticipated or forecasted results, including, but not limited to, factors
affecting one-time costs associated with tax compliance and personnel
replacement in the Company's local Belgian office; expanded operations in
emerging markets, such as Brazil, that expose us to greater political and
economic volatility than our operations in established markets; additional
costs and delays in connection with the implementation of our new ERP system
and associated litigation; our ability to forecast volatility in earnings
resulting from the quarterly revaluation of the Company's earnout obligation
to the sellers of CDC; macroeconomic circumstances that could impact our
business, such as currency fluctuations; continued adverse capital and credit
market conditions; and an economic downturn. For more information concerning
factors that could cause actual results to differ from anticipated results,
see the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as may be required
by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
of this press release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with
United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company
also discloses non-GAAP measures. To evaluate current period performance on a
clearer and more consistent basis with prior periods, the Company discloses
adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which exclude
one-time costs associated with tax compliance and personnel replacement in the
Company's local Belgian office. Management uses return on invested capital
(“ROIC”), a non-GAAP measure, as a performance measurement because management
believes that this metric best balances the Company's operating results with
its asset and liability management. The Company's Board of Directors uses ROIC
in evaluating management performance and setting management compensation. The
Company also discloses the percentage change in net sales excluding the impact
of foreign currency exchange rates to better assess the changes from prior
periods.

Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a
complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with
GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial information to GAAP
is set forth in the following Supplemental Information table.
