major brand name companies seeking to maximize their supply chain efficiencies and to extend their
traditional and e-commerce initiatives in the United States, Canada, and Europe. PFSweb offers a
broad range of services such as professional consulting, technology collaboration, managed web
hosting and internet application development, order management, web-enabled customer contact
centers, customer relationship management, financial services including billing and collection
services and working capital solutions, information management, facilities and operations

Supplies Distributors Overview
Supplies Distributors, PFSweb and InfoPrint Solutions Company (IPS), a joint venture company
owned by Ricoh and International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), have entered into master
distributor agreements under which Supplies Distributors acts as a master distributor of various
products, primarily IPS product.
Supplies Distributors has obtained certain financing that allows it to fund the working
capital requirements for the sale of primarily IPS products. Pursuant to the transaction management
services agreements between PFSweb and Supplies Distributors, PFSweb provides to Supplies
Distributors transaction management and fulfillment services such as managed web hosting and
maintenance, procurement support, web-enabled customer contact center services, customer
relationship management, financial services including billing and collection services, information
management, and international distribution services. Supplies Distributors does not have its own
sales force and relies upon IPS sales force and product demand generation activities for its sale
of IPS products. Supplies Distributors sells its products in the United States, Canada and Europe.
All of the agreements between PFSweb and Supplies Distributors were made in the context of a
related party relationship and were negotiated in the overall context of PFSwebs and Supplies
Distributors arrangement with IPS. Although management believes that the terms of these agreements
are generally consistent with fair market values, there can be no assurance that the prices charged
to or by each company under these arrangements are not higher or lower than the prices that may be
charged by, or to, unaffiliated third parties for similar services.
eCOST Overview
eCOST is a multi-category online discount retailer of new, close-out and recertified
brand-name merchandise, selling products primarily to customers in the United States. eCOST offers
products in several merchandise categories, including computers, networking, electronics and
entertainment, TVs, plasmas and monitors, cameras and camcorders, memory and storage, For the
Home and sports and leisure. eCOST carries products from leading manufacturers such as Sony, JVC,
Canon, Hewlett-Packard, Denon, Dyson, Sennheiser, Garmin, Panasonic, Toshiba and Microsoft.
The Companys liquidity has been negatively impacted as a result of the merger with eCOST.
Since the merger, eCOST has experienced a net use of cash primarily due to operating losses. As a
result, the Company has had to support eCOSTs cash needs with the goal of reducing losses. The
amount of additional cash needed to support eCOST operations will depend upon working capital
requirements, bank

PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
financing availability as well as eCOSTs continued ability to improve its financial results.
Further advances to eCOST may be limited by the Companys current cash and future cash flow and may
be restricted by the Companys credit facility obligations.
In the event eCOST is unable to increase its revenue and/or gross profit from its present
levels, it may fail to comply with one or more of the financial covenants required under its
working capital line of credit. In such event, absent a waiver, the working capital lender would
be entitled to accelerate all amounts outstanding thereunder and exercise all other rights and
remedies, including sale of collateral and demand for payment under the Company parent guaranty.
Any acceleration of the repayment of the credit facilities would have a material adverse impact on
the Companys financial condition and results of operations and no assurance can be given that the
Company would have the financial ability to repay all of such obligations.
Management currently believes eCOST will meet the Companys expectations related to improved
overall profitability. The Company has reported improvement in eCOSTs financial results beginning
in 2007, excluding the impact of any non-cash impairment charges, and currently expects improvement
as a result of efforts to increase sales, improve product mix and control operating costs, although
there can be no assurance that these future improvements will be achieved. If eCOST does not meet
expectations, the Company currently anticipates that it would be able to terminate or sublease
eCOSTs facilities, liquidate remaining inventory through the eCOST website and reduce certain
personnel related costs as needed so as to minimize any material impact upon the Companys other
segments.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2009, and for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and are unaudited. Certain
information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. In the opinion of
management and subject to the foregoing, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial
statements of the Company include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position as of June 30, 2009, its
results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and its cash flows
for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. Results of the Companys operations for interim
periods may not be indicative of results for the full fiscal year.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make judgments, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The recognition and allocation of certain revenues
and operating expenses in these consolidated financial statements also require management estimates
and assumptions.
Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with
certainty. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may
change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as the operating environment
changes. These changes have been included in the consolidated financial statements as soon as they
became known. In addition, management
7
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will
not be known for prolonged periods of time. These uncertainties are discussed in this report and in
the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 in the section
entitled Risk Factors. Based on a critical assessment of accounting policies and the underlying
judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that
the Companys consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and provide a fair presentation of
the Companys financial position and results of operations.
Investment in Affiliates
Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. (PFS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PFSweb, has made
advances to Supplies Distributors that are evidenced by a Subordinated Demand Note (the
Subordinated Note). Under the terms of certain of the Companys debt facilities, the outstanding
balance of the Subordinated Note cannot be increased to more than $6.5 million or decreased to less
than $5.0 million without prior approval of the Companys lenders. As of June 30, 2009 and December
31, 2008, the outstanding balance of the Subordinated Note was $5.5 million. The Subordinated Note
is eliminated in the Companys consolidated financial statements.
PFS has also made advances to eCOST, which aggregated $10.6 million as of June 30, 2009 and
December 31, 2008. Certain of the Companys debt facilities provide that the total advances to
eCOST may not be less than $2.0 million without prior approval of eCOSTs lender. PFS has received
the approval of its lender to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS,
as defined, to certain of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST, if needed. PFSweb
has also advanced to eCOST $5.0 million and $4.7 million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively.
Concentration of Business and Credit Risk
The Companys service fee revenue is generated under contractual service fee relationships
with multiple client relationships. No service fee clients or product revenue customers exceeded
10% of consolidated total net revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2009. A summary of the
nonaffiliated customer and client concentrations is as follows:

PFSweb has provided certain collateralized guarantees of its subsidiaries financings and
credit arrangements. These subsidiaries ability to obtain financing on similar terms would be
significantly impacted without these guarantees.
8
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company has multiple arrangements with IBM and IPS and is dependent upon the continuation
of such arrangements. These arrangements, which are critical to the Companys ongoing operations,
include Supplies Distributors master distributor agreements, certain of Supplies Distributors
working capital financing agreements, product sales to IBM and IPS business units and an IBM term
master lease agreement. Substantially all of the Supplies Distributors revenue is generated by
its sale of product purchased from IPS. Supplies Distributors also relies upon IPS sales force
and product demand generation activities and the discontinuance of such services would have a
material impact upon Supplies Distributors business.
eCOSTs arrangements with its vendors are terminable by either party at will. Loss of any
vendors could have a material adverse effect on eCOSTs financial position, results of operations
and cash flows. Sales of HP and HP-related products represented 42% of eCOSTs net revenues (10%
of the Companys consolidated total net revenues) in the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 52% of
eCOSTs net revenues (12% of the Companys consolidated total net revenues) in the comparable 2008
period.
Inventories
The Company establishes inventory reserves based upon estimates of declines in values due to
inventories that are slow moving or obsolete, excess levels of inventory or values assessed at
lower than cost. Recoverability of the inventory on hand is measured by comparison of the carrying
value of the inventory to the fair value of the inventory.
Supplies Distributors assumes responsibility for slow-moving inventory under certain master
distributor agreements, subject to certain termination rights, but has the right to return product
rendered obsolete by engineering changes, as defined. In the event PFSweb, Supplies Distributors
and IPS terminate the master distributor agreements, the agreements provide for the parties to
mutually agree on a plan of disposition of Supplies Distributors then existing inventory.
Property and Equipment
The Companys property held under capital leases amounted to approximately $2.8 million and
$3.4 million, net of accumulated amortization of approximately $9.4 million and $8.4 million, at
June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company issued an aggregate of 352,767 options
to purchase shares of common stock to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the
Company.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment periodically, but at a minimum annually,
or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
not be recoverable. Long-lived assets include property, intangible assets, goodwill and certain
other assets. Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an
asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are
considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value would be determined
using appraisals, discounted cash flow analysis or similar valuation techniques. The Company makes
judgments and estimates in conjunction with the carrying value of these assets, including amounts
to be capitalized, depreciation and amortization methods and useful lives. The Company records
impairment losses in the period in which it determines that the carrying amount is not recoverable.
This may require the Company to make judgments regarding long-term forecasts of their future
revenues and costs related to the assets subject to review.

PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Cash Paid for Interest and Taxes
The Company made payments for interest of approximately $0.7 million and $0.8 million during
the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Income taxes of approximately $0.5
million and $0.1 million were paid by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated its subsequent events through August 14, 2009. There were no events
or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2009 that required disclosure in the financial
statements.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at
fair value on a recurring basis, at least annually, until fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007 and the Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and
liabilities on January 1, 2008, with no material impact to its consolidated financial statements.
The Company adopted fair value measurement treatment for nonfinancial assets and liabilities on
January 1, 2009, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141R, Business Combinations, and Statement No.
160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.
Statement No. 141R modified the accounting and disclosure requirements for business combinations
and broadens the scope of the previous standard to apply to all transactions in which one entity
obtains control over another business. Statement No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting
standards for noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries. The Company applied the provisions of the
new standards in the first quarter of 2009. The adoption of the statement did not have a material
impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible
Assets (FSP No. 142-3). This guidance is intended to improve the consistency between the useful
life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
(SFAS No. 142), and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset
under SFAS No. 141(R) when the underlying arrangement includes renewal or extension of terms that
would require substantial costs or result in a material modification to the asset upon renewal or
extension. Companies estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset must now consider
their historical experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements or, in the absence of
historical experience, must consider assumptions that market participants would use about renewal
or extension as adjusted for SFAS No. 142s entity-specific factors. FSP No 142-3 was effective
beginning January 1, 2009 and will be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the
effective date. The adoption of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 Subsequent Events (SFAS 165), which sets forth
general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet
date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The Company adopted
the provisions of SFAS 165 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 with no material impact on its
consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and
the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162
10
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(SFAS 168), which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of
authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied in the preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS 168
explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) under federal securities laws as authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 will
become effective in the third quarter of 2009 and will not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. For both the three
and six months ended June 30, 2009, outstanding options of 1.8 million to purchase common shares
were anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the diluted weighted average share computation. For
both the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, common stock equivalents of 0.8 million are
included in the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding. For both the three and six
months ended June 30, 2008, outstanding options of 0.5 million to purchase common shares were
anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the diluted weighted average share computation.

Inventory and Working Capital Financing Agreement, United States
Supplies Distributors has a short-term credit facility with IBM Credit LLC to finance its
distribution of IPS products in the United States, providing financing for eligible IPS inventory
and certain receivables up to $30.5 million through its expiration in March 2010. As of June 30,
2009, Supplies Distributors had $2.0 million of available credit under this facility. The credit
facility contains cross default provisions, various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies
Distributors to, among others, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and
payments to related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.),
provide guarantees, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock
ownership structure and pay dividends, as well as financial covenants, such as annualized revenue

as defined, and are secured by certain of the assets of Supplies Distributors, as well as a
collateralized guaranty of PFSweb. Additionally, PFS is required to maintain a minimum Subordinated
Note receivable balance from Supplies Distributors of $5.0 million and a minimum shareholders
equity of $18.0 million. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest, after a defined free
financing period, at prime rate plus 0.5% (3.75% as of
11
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009). The facility also includes a
monthly service fee. Given the structure of this facility and as
outstanding balances, which represent inventory purchases, are repaid within twelve months,
the Company has classified the outstanding amounts under this facility as accounts payable in the
consolidated balance sheets.
Inventory and Working Capital Financing Agreement, Europe
Supplies Distributors European subsidiary has a short-term credit facility with IBM Belgium
Financial Services S.A. (IBM Belgium) to finance its distribution of IPS products in Europe. The
asset based credit facility with IBM Belgium provides up to 16.0 million euros (approximately $22.6
million) in inventory financing and cash advances based on eligible inventory and accounts receivable through its
expiration in March 2010. As of June 30, 2009, Supplies Distributors European subsidiaries had 2.3
million euros ($3.3 million) of available credit under this facility. The credit facility contains
cross default provisions, various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies Distributors and its
European subsidiaries to, among others, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make
loans and payments to related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb,
Inc.), provide guarantees, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock
ownership structure and pay dividends, as well as financial covenants, such as annualized revenue
to working capital, net profit after tax to revenue, and total liabilities to tangible net worth,
as defined, and are secured by certain of the assets of Supplies Distributors European subsidiary,

plus 4.25% for inventory financings. As of June 30, 2009, the interest rate was
2.7% for the $2.5 million of outstanding cash advances (see Note 6) and 5.0% on the $12.9 million of outstanding
inventory financings. Supplies Distributors European subsidiary pays a monthly service fee on the
commitment. Given the structure of this facility and as outstanding
inventory financing balances are repaid within twelve months, the Company has classified the outstanding
inventory financing amounts under this facility as accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets.

Loan and Security Agreement Supplies Distributors
Supplies Distributors has a loan and security agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A. (Wachovia)
to provide financing for up to $25 million of eligible accounts receivable in the United States and
Canada. As of June 30, 2009, Supplies Distributors had $2.4 million of available credit under this
agreement. The Wachovia facility expires on the earlier of March 2011 or the date on which the
parties to the IPS master
12
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
distributor agreement no longer operate under the terms of such agreement
and/or IPS no longer supplies
products pursuant to such agreement. Borrowings under the Wachovia facility accrue interest at
prime rate plus 0.25% to 0.75% or Eurodollar rate plus 2.5% to 3.0%, dependent on excess
availability, as defined, (3.75% as of June 30, 2009). This agreement contains cross default
provisions, various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies Distributors to, among other things,
merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and payments to related parties
(including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), provide guarantees, make
investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure and pay
dividends, as well as financial covenants, such as minimum net worth, as defined, and is secured by
all of the assets of Supplies Distributors, as well as a collateralized guaranty of PFSweb.
Additionally, PFS is required to maintain a Subordinated Note receivable balance from Supplies
Distributors of no less than $5.0 million and may not maintain restricted cash of more than $5.0
million, and is restricted with regard to transactions with related parties, indebtedness and
changes to capital stock ownership structure. Supplies Distributors has entered into blocked
account agreements with its banks and Wachovia pursuant to which a security interest was granted to
Wachovia for all U.S. and Canadian customer remittances received in specified bank accounts. At
June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, these bank accounts held $0.3 million and $0.1 million,
respectively, which was restricted for payment to Wachovia.
Loan and Security Agreement PFS
PFS has a Loan and Security Agreement (Comerica Agreement) with Comerica Bank (Comerica).
The Comerica Agreement provides for up to $10.0 million of eligible accounts receivable financing
through March 2010. Borrowings under the Comerica Agreement accrue interest at a defined rate,
which will generally be prime rate plus 2%, with a minimum of 4.5% (5.25% at June 30, 2009). As of
June 30, 2009, PFS had $1.5 million of available credit under this facility. The Comerica Agreement
contains cross default provisions, various restrictions upon PFS ability to, among other things,
merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and payments to related parties
(including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make capital expenditures, make
investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as
financial covenants of a minimum tangible net worth of $20 million, as defined, a minimum earnings
before interest and taxes, plus depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation accruals, if
any, as defined, and a minimum liquidity ratio, as defined. The Comerica Agreement restricts the
amount of the subordinated note receivable from Supplies Distributors to a maximum of $6.5 million.
Comerica has provided approval for PFS to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash
inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST, if

PFSweb, Inc.
Credit Facility eCOST
eCOST has an asset-based line of credit facility of up to $7.5 million from Wachovia, through
May 2011, which is collateralized by substantially all of eCOSTs assets. Borrowings under the
facility are limited to a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Outstanding
amounts under the facility bear interest at rates ranging prime rate plus 0.75% to 1.25% or
Eurodollar rate plus 3.0% to 4.0%, depending on eCOSTs financial results. There were no
outstanding amounts as of June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, eCOST had $1.0 million of letters of
credit outstanding and $1.3 million of available credit under this facility. In connection with the
line of credit, eCOST entered into a cash management arrangement whereby eCOSTs operating amounts
are considered restricted and swept and used to repay outstanding amounts under the line of credit.
As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the restricted cash amount was $0.2 million in each
period. The credit facility restricts eCOSTs ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate,
sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and payments to subsidiaries, affiliates
and related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make
investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, and
requires a minimum tangible net worth of $0 million, as defined. PFSweb has guaranteed all current
and future obligations of eCOST under this line of credit.

PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Factoring Agreement
Supplies Distributors European subsidiary has a factoring agreement with Fortis Commercial
Finance N.V. (Fortis) to provide factoring for up to 7.5 million euros (approximately $10.6
million) of eligible accounts receivables through March 2010. As of June 30, 2009, Supplies
Distributors European subsidiary had approximately 0.9 million euros ($1.3 million) of available
credit under this agreement. Borrowings accrue interest at Euribor plus 0.8% (1.6% at June 30,
2009). This agreement contains various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies Distributors
European subsidiary to, among other things, merge, consolidate and incur indebtedness, as well as
financial covenants, such as minimum net worth. This agreement is secured by a guarantee of
Supplies Distributors, up to a maximum of 200,000 euros.
Taxable Revenue Bonds
PFS has a Loan Agreement with the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation (the MBFC) in
connection with the issuance by the MBFC of $5 million MBFC Taxable Variable Rate Demand Limited
Obligation Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 (Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. Project) (the Bonds).
The MBFC loaned the proceeds of the Bonds to PFS for the purpose of financing the acquisition and
installation of equipment, machinery and related assets located in one of the Companys Southaven,
Mississippi distribution facilities. The Bonds bear interest at a variable rate (1.3% as of June
30, 2009), as determined by Comerica Securities, as Remarketing Agent. PFS, at its option, may
convert the Bonds to a fixed rate, to be determined by the Remarketing Agent at the time of
conversion.
The primary source of repayment of the Bonds is a letter of credit (the Letter of Credit) in
the initial face amount of $5.1 million issued by Comerica pursuant to a Reimbursement Agreement
between PFS and Comerica under which PFS is obligated to pay to Comerica all amounts drawn under
the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit has a maturity date of April 2010 at which time, if not
renewed or replaced, will result in a draw on the undrawn face amount thereof. If the Letter of
Credit is renewed or replaced, the Bonds require future annual principal repayments of $800,000 in
January of each year through 2012. PFS obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement are secured
by substantially all of the assets of PFS, including restricted cash of $1.5 million and a Company
parent guarantee.
Debt Covenants
To the extent the Company or any of its subsidiaries fail to comply with covenants applicable
to its debt or vendor financing obligations, including the monthly financial covenant requirements
and required level of shareholders equity or net worth, and one or all of the lenders accelerate
the repayment of the credit facility obligations, the Company would be required to repay all
amounts outstanding thereunder. In particular, in the event eCOST is unable to increase its
revenue and/or gross profit from its present levels, or if PFS service fee revenue declines from
expected levels and it is unable to reduce costs to correspond to such reduced revenue levels or if
Supplies Distributors revenue or gross profit declines from expected levels, such events may result
in a breach of one or more of the financial covenants required under its working capital line of
credit. In such event, absent a waiver, the working capital lender would be entitled to accelerate
all amounts outstanding thereunder and exercise all other rights and remedies, including sale of
collateral and demand for payment under the Company parent guaranty. Any acceleration of the
repayment of the credit facilities would have a material adverse impact on the Companys financial
condition and results of operations and no assurance can be given that the Company would have the
financial ability to repay all of such obligations.
Master Lease Agreements
The Company has a Term Lease Master Agreement with IBM Credit Corporation (Master Lease
Agreement) that provides for leasing or financing transactions of equipment and other assets,
which generally have terms of three years. The amounts outstanding under this Master Lease
Agreement ($1.4 million as of June 30, 2009 and $1.7 million as of December 31, 2008) are secured
by the related equipment.
14
PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company has two other master agreements with financing companies that provide for leasing
or financing transactions of certain equipment. The amounts outstanding under these agreements were
$1.2 million and $1.5 million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, and are
secured by the related equipment.
The Company has other leasing and financing agreements and will continue to enter into those
arrangements as needed to finance the purchasing or leasing of certain equipment or other assets.
Borrowings under these agreements are generally secured by the related equipment.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company receives municipal tax abatements in certain locations. During 2004 the Company
received notice from a municipality that it did not satisfy certain criteria necessary to maintain
the abatements. In December 2006, the Company received notice that the municipal authority planned
to make an adjustment to the Companys tax abatement. The Company has disputed the adjustment, but
if the dispute is not resolved favorably, additional taxes of approximately $1.7 million could be
assessed against the Company.
The Company is subject to claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of
alleged infringement by the Company or its subsidiaries of the patents, trademarks and other
intellectual property rights of third parties. If the party asserting such claims commences
litigation, the Company could be required to defend itself or its customers. The Company is not
aware of any such litigation.

We have based these statements on our current expectations about future events. Although we
believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot
guarantee you
17
that these expectations actually will be achieved. In addition, some forward-looking
statements are based
upon assumptions as to future events that may not prove to be accurate. Therefore, actual outcomes
and results may differ materially from what is expected or forecasted in such forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement for any
reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
Overview
We are an international provider of integrated eCommerce and business process outsourcing
solutions to major brand name companies seeking to optimize their supply chain efficiencies and to
extend their traditional business and e-commerce initiatives. Through our eCOST.com business unit,
we are a leading multi-category online discount retailer of new, close-out and recertified
brand-name merchandise. We derive our revenues from three business segments: as an eCommerce and
business process outsourcer, a master distributor and an online discount retailer.
First, in our eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment we derive our revenues from a
broad range of services, including professional consulting, technology collaboration, order
management, managed web hosting and web development, the development of an eCommerce technology
platform, customer relationship management, financial services including billing and collection
services and working capital solutions, kitting and assembly services, information management and
international fulfillment and distribution services. We offer our services as an integrated
solution, which enables our clients to outsource their complete infrastructure needs to a single
source and to focus on their core competencies. Our distribution services are conducted at
warehouses that we lease or manage and include real-time inventory management and customized
picking, packing and shipping of our clients customer orders. We currently offer the ability to
provide infrastructure and distribution solutions to clients that operate in a range of vertical
markets, including technology manufacturing, computer products, cosmetics, fragile goods,
contemporary home furnishings, apparel, aviation, telecommunications and consumer electronics,
among others.
In this eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment, we do not own the underlying
inventory or the resulting accounts receivable, but provide management services for these
client-owned assets. We typically charge our service fee revenue on a cost-plus basis, a percent
of shipped revenue basis or a per-transaction basis, such as a per-minute basis for web-enabled
customer contact center services and a per-item basis for fulfillment services. Additional fees are
billed for other services. We price our services based on a variety of factors, including the depth
and complexity of the services provided, the amount of capital expenditures or systems
customization required, the length of contract and other factors.
Many of our service fee contracts involve third-party vendors who provide additional services
such as package delivery. The costs we are charged by these third-party vendors for these services
are often passed on to our clients. Our billings for reimbursements of these and other
out-of-pocket expenses include travel, shipping and handling costs and telecommunication charges
are included in pass-through revenue.
Our second business segment is a product revenue model. In this segment, we are a master
distributor of product for IPS and certain other clients. In this capacity, we purchase, and thus
own, inventory and recognize the corresponding product revenue. As a result, upon the sale of
inventory, we own the accounts receivable. Freight costs billed to customers are reflected as
components of product revenue. This business segment requires significant working capital
requirements, for which we have senior credit facilities to provide for approximately $90 million
of available financing.
Our third business segment is a web-commerce product revenue model focused on the sale of
products to a broad range of consumer and small business customers. In this segment we operate as
a multi-category online discount retailer of new, close-out and recertified brand-name
merchandise. Our product line currently offers approximately 300,000 products in several primary
merchandise categories, primarily including computers, networking, electronics and entertainment,
TVs, plasmas and monitors, cameras and camcorders, memory and storage, For the Home and sports
and leisure.
Growth is a key element to achieving our future goals, including achieving and maintaining
sustainable profitability. Growth in our eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment is
driven by two main
18
elements: new client relationships and organic growth from existing clients. We
focus our sales efforts on
larger contracts with brand-name companies within two primary target markets, online brands
and retailers and technology manufacturers, which, by nature, require a longer duration to close
but also have the potential to be higher-quality and longer duration engagements.
Growth within our product revenue business is primarily driven by our ability to attract new
master distributor arrangements with IPS or other manufacturers and the sales and marketing efforts
of the manufacturers and third party sales partners.
Growth within our web-commerce product revenue model is primarily driven by eCOSTs ability to
increase sales by generating organic growth, new customers and expand its product line.
We continue to monitor and control our costs to focus on profitability. While we are
targeting our new service fee contracts to yield increased gross profit, we also expect to incur
incremental investments to implement new contracts, investments in infrastructure and sales and
marketing to support our targeted growth and increased public company professional fees.
Our expenses comprise primarily four categories: 1) cost of product revenue, 2) cost of
service fee revenue, 3) cost of pass-through revenue and 4) operating expenses.
Cost of product revenues
consists of the purchase price of product sold and freight costs,
which are reduced by certain reimbursable expenses. These reimbursable expenses include
pass-through customer marketing programs, direct costs incurred in passing on any price decreases
offered by vendors to cover price protection and certain special bids, the cost of products
provided to replace defective product returned by customers and certain other expenses as defined
under the master distributor agreements. Vendor marketing programs, such as co-op advertising,
also reduce cost of product revenue.
Cost
of service fee revenue consists primarily of compensation and related expenses for our
web-enabled customer contact center services, international fulfillment and distribution services
and professional consulting services, and other fixed and variable expenses directly related to
providing services under the terms of fee based contracts, including certain occupancy and
information technology costs and depreciation and amortization expenses.
Cost
of pass-through revenue the related reimbursable costs for pass-through expenditures
are reflected as cost of pass-through revenue.
Operating expenses consist primarily of selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses such as compensation and related expenses for sales and marketing staff, advertising,
online marketing and catalog production, distribution costs (excluding freight) applicable to the
Supplies Distributors and eCOST businesses, executive, management and administrative personnel and
other overhead costs, including certain occupancy and information technology costs and depreciation
and amortization expenses.
Monitoring and controlling our expenditures and available cash balances continues to be a
primary focus. Our cash and liquidity positions are important components of our financing of both
current operations and our targeted growth.

Product Revenue, net. eCOST product revenue was $20.3 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2009, an 11.9% decrease as compared to $23.0 million in the comparable quarter of the
prior year. eCOST product revenue was $41.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, a 19.2%
decrease as compared to $51.0 million in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decreases
are primarily due to a decline in sales in its business to business channel resulting from the
impact of the current economic environment and eCOSTs reduced emphasis on this lower margin
channel. Partially offsetting these decreases is an increase in sales in the higher margin business
to consumer sales channel, primarily due to continued emphasis on growth through an expanded
product line, improved service capabilities and enhanced website capabilities.
Supplies Distributors product revenue of $45.3 million decreased $14.8 million, or 24.6%, in
the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Product
revenue of $90.6 million decreased $31.7 million, or 25.9%, in the six months ended June 30, 2009
as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decreases are primarily due to decreased
sales volume resulting from the impact of the overall global economic pressures
and inventory rationalization by customers. In addition, product revenue in the six months ended
June 30, 2009 was negatively impacted by a $1.4 million reduction of revenue arising from a
customer bankruptcy.

Service Fee Revenue. Service fee revenue of $12.4 million decreased $8.9 million, or 41.8%,
in the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Service
fee revenue of
$29.5 million decreased $12.6 million, or 29.9%, in the six months ended June 30, 2009 as
compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in service fee revenue for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2009 is primarily due to the non-renewal of a certain U.S. government
agency client relationship partially offset by increased service fees generated from the impact of
new service contract relationships. The change in service fee revenue is shown below ($ millions):

Cost of Product Revenue. The gross margin for eCOST was $1.9 million or 9.7% of product
revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2009 and $1.9 million or 8.3% of product revenue during
the comparable period of 2008. The gross margin for eCOST was $4.0 million or 9.7% of product
revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2009 and $4.1 million or 8.1% of product revenue during
the comparable period of 2008. The increase in gross margin percentage in both periods is
primarily due to a shift in product sales to the higher margin business-to-consumer channel. As we
continue to target an increasing percentage of eCOST revenues to be generated from the
business-to-consumer channel, we expect overall gross margin for eCOST in 2009 will continue to be
higher than the prior year.
Supplies Distributors cost of product revenue decreased by $13.2 million, or 24.0%, to $42.0
million in the three months ended June 30, 2009 primarily as a result of decreased product sales.
The resulting gross profit margin was $3.3 million, or 7.3% of product revenue, for the three
months ended June 30, 2009 and $4.8 million, or 8.0% of product revenue, for the comparable 2008
period. Supplies Distributors cost of product revenue decreased by $29.6 million, or 26.0%, to
$83.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 primarily as a result of decreased product
sales. The resulting gross profit margin was $6.7 million, or 7.4% of product revenue, for the six
months ended June 30, 2009 and $8.8 million, or 7.2% of product revenue, for the comparable 2008
period. The 2008 three and six month periods include the impact of certain incremental inventory
cost reductions. The 2009 margin percentages include an increase due to incremental gross margin
earned on product sales resulting from certain product price increases, which is partially offset
by a reduction in revenue arising from a customer bankruptcy during the first quarter of 2009.
Cost of Service Fee Revenue. Gross profit as a percentage of service fees was 23.9% in the
three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 28.9% in the same period of the prior year. Gross
profit as a percentage of service fees was 29.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to
31.2% in the same period of the prior year. The margins in the prior year periods included the
benefit of six months of higher margin incremental project work associated with the U.S. government
contract relationship that was not renewed and was completed in the second quarter of 2009.
We target to earn an overall average gross profit of 25-30% on existing and new service fee
contracts, but we have and may continue to accept lower gross margin percentages on certain
contracts depending on contract scope and other factors.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $1.4
million to $10.7 million from $12.1 million in the same 2008 period. As a percentage of total net
revenue, operating expenses were 12.9% in the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 10.9% in the
comparable period. The increase in percentage of total net sales is primarily due to the reduction
in total net revenues and the impact of certain personnel related expenses.
21
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $2.9 million to $21.4
million from $24.3 million in the same 2008 period. As a percentage of total net revenue,
operating expenses were 12.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 10.7% in the comparable
period. The increase in percentage of total net sales is primarily due to the reduction in total
net revenues and the impact of certain personnel related expenses. During the six months ended
June 30, 2009, we implemented certain cost reductions, primarily including personnel related adjustments, to help reduce the impact of the lower
service fee revenue.
Income Taxes. We recorded a tax provision associated primarily with state income taxes and our
subsidiary Supplies Distributors Canadian and European
operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2009, we
recognized a tax benefit relating to our adoption of a new transfer
pricing policy between certain international subsidiaries. This
policy adoption resulted from the completion of a transfer pricing
study and its approval by appropriate tax regulators. A valuation allowance has been
provided for the majority of our net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
which are primarily related to our net operating loss carryforwards, and certain foreign deferred
tax assets. We expect that we will continue to record an income tax provision associated with state
income taxes and Supplies Distributors Canadian and European results of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2009, and primarily resulted from a $12.2 million decrease in accounts receivable, a decrease in
inventories of $6.3 million, cash income before working capital changes of $1.4 million and a $1.3
million decrease in prepaid expenses, other receivables and other assets, partially offset by a
$16.6 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008, and primarily resulted from a $10.0 million of increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses
and other liabilities, a $8.8 million decrease in accounts receivable and cash income before
working capital changes of $4.6 million. These benefits were offset by a $5.9 million increase in
prepaid expenses, other receivables and other assets and a $5.8 million increase in inventories.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 totaled
$1.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, resulting primarily from capital expenditures.
Capital expenditures have historically consisted primarily of additions to upgrade our
management information systems, and general expansion and upgrades to our facilities, both domestic
and foreign. We expect to incur capital expenditures to support new contracts and anticipated
future growth opportunities. Based on our current client business activity and our targeted growth
plans, we anticipate our total investment in upgrades and additions to facilities and information
technology services for the upcoming twelve months will be approximately $3 to $5 million, although
additional capital expenditures may be necessary to support the infrastructure requirements of new
clients. To maintain our current operating cash position, a portion of these expenditures may be
financed through client reimbursements, debt, operating or capital leases or additional equity. We may elect to modify or
defer a portion of such anticipated investments in the event we do not obtain the financing or
achieve the financial results necessary to support such investments.
Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $3.9 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2009, primarily representing payments on debt and capital lease obligations.
Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $10.4 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2008, primarily representing payments on debt and capital lease obligations and a $1.7
million increase in restricted cash.
Our liquidity has been negatively impacted as a result of the merger with eCOST. Since the
merger, eCOST has experienced a net use of cash primarily due to operating losses. As a result,
PFSweb has had to support eCOSTs cash needs with the goal of reducing operating losses. The
amount of further cash needed to support eCOST operations will depend upon the financing available
as well as eCOSTs ability to improve its financial results. eCOSTs results, excluding the impact
of any non-cash impairment charges, have improved beginning in 2007, and we currently expect
improvement as a result of efforts to increase sales, improve product mix and further improve
operational efficiencies.
22
Our liquidity may also be negatively impacted by an expected decline in service fee revenue
due to the current general economic decline as well as the nonrenewal of a U.S. government agency
contract and certain other client contracts. To help minimize the impact of lower service fee
revenue, we have implemented certain measures that reduced variable costs and expenses and
redeployed existing infrastructure to other client activities. No assurance can be given that a
further decline in service fee revenue, beyond those noted, will not have a material adverse effect
upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, our working capital decreased to $17.1 million from
$21.4 million at December 31, 2008, partially due to the
reclassification of our
taxable revenue bonds to short-term debt due to the April 2010 maturing of the related letters of
credit securing the taxable revenue bonds and the paydown of other
long-term debt facilities. To obtain additional financing in the future, in
addition to our current cash position, we plan to evaluate various financing alternatives including
the sale of equity, utilizing capital or operating leases, borrowing under our credit facilities,
expanding our current credit facilities, entering into new debt agreements or transferring to third
parties a portion of our subordinated loan balance due from Supplies Distributors. In conjunction
with certain of these alternatives, we may be required to provide certain letters of credit to
secure these arrangements. We currently believe that our cash position, financing available under
our credit facilities and funds generated from operations (including cost reductions related to the
nonrenewal of our U.S. government contract) will satisfy our presently known operating cash needs,
our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, our current debt and lease obligations,
and additional loans to our subsidiaries Supplies Distributors and eCOST, if necessary, for at
least the next twelve months.
Recently, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a
period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or
sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United
States and foreign governments. While the ultimate outcome of these events cannot be predicted,
they may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, results of
operations and our ability to renew our credit facilities.
The following is a schedule of our total contractual cash obligations which is comprised of
operating leases, debt, vendor financing and capital leases (including interest) as of June 30,
2009, (in millions):

In support of certain debt instruments and leases, as of June 30, 2009, we had $2.1
million of cash restricted for repayment to lenders. In addition, as described above, we have
provided collateralized guarantees to secure the repayment of certain of our subsidiaries credit
facilities. Many of these facilities include both financial and non-financial covenants, and also
include cross default provisions applicable to other credit facilities and agreements. These
covenants include minimum levels of net worth for the individual borrower subsidiaries and
restrictions on the ability of the borrower subsidiaries to advance funds to other borrower
subsidiaries. As a result, it is possible for one or more of these borrower subsidiaries to fail
to meet their respective covenants even if another borrower subsidiary otherwise has available
excess funds, which, if not restricted, could be used to cure the default. To the extent we fail
to comply with our debt covenants, including the monthly financial covenant requirements and our
required level of shareholders equity, and the lenders accelerate the repayment of the credit
facility obligations, we would be required to repay all amounts outstanding
thereunder. In
particular, in the event eCOST is unable to increase its revenue and/or gross profit from its
present levels, or if PFS service fee revenue declines from expected levels and it is unable to
reduce costs to correspond to such reduced revenue levels or if Supplies Distributors revenue or
gross profit declines from expected levels, such events may result in a breach of one or more of
the financial covenants required under its working capital line of credit. In such event, absent a
waiver, the working capital lender would be entitled to accelerate all amounts outstanding
23
thereunder and
exercise all other rights and remedies, including sale of collateral and payment under our parent
guaranty. A requirement to accelerate the repayment of the credit facility obligations would have
a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We can provide no
assurance that we will have the financial ability to repay all of such obligations. As of June 30,
2009, we were in compliance with all debt covenants. We do not have any other material financial
commitments, although future client contracts may require capital expenditures and lease
commitments to support the services provided to such clients.
In the future, we may attempt to acquire other businesses or seek an equity or strategic
partner to generate capital or expand our services or capabilities in connection with our efforts
to grow our business. Acquisitions involve certain risks and uncertainties and may require
additional financing. Therefore, we can give no assurance with respect to whether we will be
successful in identifying businesses to acquire or an equity or strategic partner, whether we or
they will be able to obtain financing to complete a transaction, or whether we or they will be
successful in operating the acquired business.
To finance their distribution of IPS products, Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries have
short-term credit facilities with IBM Credit LLC (IBM Credit) and IBM Belgium Financial Services
S.A. (IBM Belgium). We have provided a collateralized guaranty to secure the repayment of these
credit facilities. These asset-based credit facilities provided financing for up to $30.5 million
and up to 16.0 million euros (approximately $22.6 million) with IBM Credit and IBM Belgium,
respectively. These agreements expire in March 2010.
Supplies Distributors also has a loan and security agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A.
(Wachovia) to provide financing for up to $25 million of eligible accounts receivables in the
United States and Canada. The Wachovia facility expires on the earlier of March 2011 or the date on
which the parties to the IPS master distributor agreement no longer operate under the terms of such
agreement and/or IPS no longer supplies products pursuant to such agreement.
Supplies Distributors European subsidiary has a factoring agreement with Fortis Commercial
Finance N.V. (Fortis) to provide factoring for up to 7.5 million euros (approximately $10.6
million) of eligible accounts receivables through March 2010.
These credit facilities contain cross default provisions, various restrictions upon the
ability of Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries to, among other things, merge, consolidate,
sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and payments to related parties (including
entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), provide guarantees, make investments and
loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure and pay dividends, as well
as financial covenants, such as cash flow from operations, annualized revenue to working capital,
net profit after tax to revenue, minimum net worth and total liabilities to tangible net worth, as
defined, and are secured by all of the assets of Supplies Distributors, as well as a collateralized
guaranty of PFSweb. Additionally, we are required to maintain a subordinated loan to Supplies
Distributors of no less than $5.0 million, not maintain restricted cash of more than $5.0 million,
are restricted with regard to transactions with related parties, indebtedness and changes to
capital stock ownership structure and a minimum shareholders equity of at least $18.0 million.
Furthermore, we are obligated to repay any over-advance made to Supplies Distributors or its
subsidiaries under these facilities if they are unable to do so. We have also provided a guarantee
of the obligations of Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries to IBM and IPS, excluding the
trade payables that are financed by IBM credit.
Our subsidiary, Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. (PFS), has a Loan and Security Agreement
(Agreement) with Comerica Bank (Comerica), which provides for up to $10.0 million of eligible
accounts receivable financing through March 2010. We entered this Agreement to supplement our
existing cash position, and provide funding for our current and future operations, including our
targeted growth. The Agreement contains cross default provisions, various restrictions upon our
ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and
payments to subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties (including entities directly or indirectly
owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make capital expenditures, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make
changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as financial covenants of a minimum tangible
net worth of $20 million, as defined, a minimum earnings before interest and taxes, plus
depreciation, amortization and non-cash
compensation
24
accruals, if any, as defined, and a minimum
liquidity ratio, as defined. The agreement also limits PFS ability to increase the subordinated
loan to Supplies Distributors to more than $6.5 million and permits PFS to advance
incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of its
subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST. The Agreement is secured by all of the assets of
PFS, as well as a guarantee of PFSweb.
eCOST currently has an asset-based line of credit facility of up to $7.5 million with
Wachovia, which is collateralized by substantially all of eCOSTs assets and expires in May 2011.
Borrowings under the facility are limited to a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and
letter of credit availability is limited to a percentage of accounts receivable and inventory. As
of June 30, 2009, eCOST had $1.0 million of letters of credit outstanding and $1.3 million of
available credit under this facility. The credit facility restricts eCOSTs ability to, among
other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and
payments to subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties, make investments and loans, pledge
assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as a minimum tangible net worth
of $0 million, as defined. PFSweb has guaranteed all current and future obligations of eCOST under
this line of credit.
In 2004, PFS incurred more than $5 million in capital expenditures to support incremental
business from a distribution facility in Southaven, MS. PFS financed a significant portion of
these expenditures through a Loan Agreement with the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation (the
MBFC) pursuant to which the MBFC issued $5 million MBFC Taxable Variable Rate Demand Limited
Obligation Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 (Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. Project) (the Bonds).
The MBFC loaned PFS the proceeds of the Bonds for the purpose of financing the acquisition and
installation of equipment, machinery and related assets located in the Southaven, Mississippi
distribution facility. The primary source of repayment of the Bonds is a letter of credit (the
Letter of Credit) in the initial face amount of $5.1 million issued by Comerica pursuant to a
Reimbursement Agreement between us and Comerica under which PFS is obligated to pay to Comerica all
amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit has a maturity date of April 2010
at which time, if not renewed or replaced, will result in a draw on the undrawn face amount
thereof. The amount outstanding on this Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2009 was $2.4 million. PFS
obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement are secured by substantially all of its assets,
including restricted cash of $1.5 million and a Company parent guarantee.
To the extent we fail to comply with the various debt covenants described above, and the
lenders accelerate the repayment of the credit facility obligations, we would be required to repay
all amounts outstanding thereunder. Any requirement to accelerate the repayment of the credit
facility obligations would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of
operations. We can provide no assurance that we will have the financial ability to repay all of
such obligations. As of June 30, 2009, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
eCOST has historically incurred significant operating losses and used cash to fund its
operations. As a result, we have been required to invest cash to fund eCOSTs operations, which we
may not be able to continue to do without approval from our lenders. The amount of further cash
needed to support eCOST operations depends upon the financing available under its credit line as
well as eCOSTs ability to improve its financial results. Through June 30, 2009, we have advanced
$15.6 million to eCOST to fund eCOSTs cash flow requirements and have lender approval to advance
incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of our
subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST. In the event we need to invest further cash to
eCOST, we may be required to seek approval from our lenders to provide such funds. We can provide
no assurance that we will receive such approval from our lenders or any terms or conditions
required by our lenders in order to obtain such approval. In addition, PFSweb has provided a
guaranty of eCOSTs bank line of credit and certain eCOST vendor trade payables.
We receive municipal tax abatements in certain locations. During 2004 we received notice from
a municipality that we did not satisfy certain criteria necessary to maintain the abatements. In
December 2006, we received notice that the municipal authority planned to make an adjustment to our
tax abatement. We have disputed the adjustment, but if the dispute is not resolved favorably,
additional taxes of $1.7 million could be assessed against us.
25
Seasonality
The seasonality of our service fee business is dependent upon the seasonality of our clients
business and sales of their products. Accordingly, our management must rely upon the projections of
our clients in assessing quarterly variability. We believe with our current client mix and their
current business volumes, our run rate service fee business activity will be at it lowest in the
quarter ended March 31. We anticipate our Supplies Distributors product revenue will be highest
during the quarter ended December 31. Our eCOST business is moderately seasonal, reflecting the
general pattern of peak sales for the retail industry during the holiday shopping season.
Typically, a larger portion of our eCOST revenues occur during the fourth fiscal quarter. We
believe our historical revenue growth makes it difficult to predict the effect of seasonality on
our future revenues and results of operations.
We believe that results of operations for a quarterly period may not be indicative of the
results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Inflation
Management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on our operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
A description of our critical accounting policies, including goodwill and long-lived assets,
is included in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements in our December 31, 2008 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
26
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
We are exposed to various market risks including interest rates on financial instruments and
foreign exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Our interest rate risk exists from our outstanding balances on our inventory and working
capital financing agreements, taxable revenue bonds, factoring agreement, and loan and security
agreements for the financing of inventory, accounts receivable and certain other receivables and
certain equipment, which amounted to $51.8 million at June 30, 2009. A 100 basis point movement in
interest rates would result in approximately $0.3 million annualized increase or decrease in
interest expense based on the outstanding balance of these agreements at June 30, 2009.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Currently, our foreign currency exchange rate risk is primarily limited to the Canadian Dollar
and the Euro. In the future, our foreign currency exchange risk may also include other currencies
applicable to certain of our international operations. We have and may continue, from time to
time, to employ derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign
currency rates. To hedge our net investment and intercompany payable or receivable balances in
foreign operations, we may enter into forward currency exchange contracts.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to
the reliability of the financial statements and other disclosures included in this report, as well
as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. We evaluated the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the
participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and
Accounting Officer. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial
and Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic Securities and
Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made to our internal controls or other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in
Rule 13(a)-15(f) or Rule 15-d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three and six months ended June
30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal
controls over financial reporting.
27
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
None.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes with regard to the risk factors set forth in Part I,
Item 1A of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissions on March 31, 2009 other than those as set forth
below.
Risks Related to All Our Business Segments
Our business and future growth depend on our continued access to bank and commercial financing.
The current economic crisis may negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial
condition or liquidity.
Recently, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a
period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or
sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United
States and foreign governments. The current economic crisis could also adversely impact our
customers operations or ability to maintain liquidity which may negatively impact our business and
results of operations.
Our business and future growth currently depend on our ability to access bank and commercial
lines of credit. We currently depend on an aggregate of approximately $110 million in credit
facilities provided by various banks and commercial lenders. These facilities currently mature at
various dates through May 2011 and are secured by substantially all our assets. Our ability to
renew our credit facilities depends upon various factors, including the availability of bank loans
and commercial credit in general, as well as our financial condition and prospects. Therefore, we
cannot guarantee that these credit facilities will continue to be available beyond their current
maturity on reasonable terms or at all. Our inability to renew or replace our credit facilities or
find alternative financing would materially adversely affect our business, financial condition,
operating results and cash flow.
Risks Related to Our PFS and Supplies Distributors Operating Segments
Our business is subject to the risk of customer and supplier concentration.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, a U.S. government agency and Xerox
Corporation represented the source of approximately 13% and 15%, respectively, and approximately
39% and 10%, respectively, of our total service fee revenue, excluding pass-through revenue. The
loss of, or non-payment of invoices by, any or all such clients would have a material adverse
effect upon our business. In particular, the agreements under which we provide services to such
clients are terminable at will upon notice by such clients. Our activity under our contract with
the U.S. government agency concluded in the second quarter of 2009 and the nonrenewal of that
contract, as well as the loss of, or non-payment of invoices by, any or all of such other clients
are likely to have a material adverse effect upon our business.
A substantial portion of our Supplies Distributors product revenue is generated by sales of
product purchased under master distributor agreements with IPS. These agreements are terminable at
will and no assurance can be given that IPS will continue the master distributor agreements with
Supplies Distributors. Supplies Distributors does not have its own sales force and relies upon IPS
sales force and product demand generation activities. Discontinuance of such activities would have
a material adverse effect on Supplies Distributors business and the Companys financial condition.
Sales by Supplies Distributors to two customers accounted for approximately 31% and 29% of
Supplies Distributors total product revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively (17% and 15% of our consolidated net revenues in each six month period, respectively).
The loss of any one or both of such customers, or non-payment of any material amount by these or
any other customer, are likely to have a material adverse effect upon Supplies Distributors
business.
28
Risks Related to eCOST, our Online Discount Retailer Segment
Our business is subject to the risk of supplier concentration.
Our business is dependent on sales of Hewlett Packard (HP) and HP-related products, which
represented approximately 42% of eCOSTs net revenues (10% of our consolidated net revenues) in the
six months ended June 30, 2009 and 52% of eCOSTs net revenues (12% of our consolidated net
revenues) in the comparable period of 2008. If our ability to purchase direct from HP is
terminated or restricted, or if the demand for HP and HP-related products declines, our business
will be materially adversely affected.
