SCANSOURCE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Quarterly revenues grew 15% over prior year

GREENVILLE, SC — January 28, 2010—ScanSource, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCSC), a leading international distributor of AIDC (automatic identification and data capture), point of sale, communications, and physical security products for the reseller market, today announced complete financial results for its second quarter ended December 31, 2009.

Quarter ended December 31, 2009:

Net sales	$	548 million
Net income	$	11.8 million
Diluted EPS	$	0.44 per share

“We are very pleased with our sales results for the December quarter” said Mike Baur, CEO, ScanSource, Inc. “The quarter’s highlights included record sales results in our International business and ScanSource Security and a return to strong revenue growth across all product categories. The results for the quarter also include one month’s business from our newly acquired communications unit in Germany, formerly known as Algol Europe.”

For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, net sales increased 14.9% to $548 million compared to $477 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Quarterly operating income decreased by 1.4% to $18.1 million from $18.4 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Operating margin

decreased to 3.31% when compared to 3.86% in the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The decrease in operating income margin is largely attributable to higher bad debt expense recognized during the current quarter. The increase in expense is reflected in our allowance for doubtful accounts and is in response to a specific customer account exposure. Net income decreased 12.6% to $11.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 versus $13.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. It should be noted that the quarter ended December 31, 2008 includes a $3.5 million recovery ($2.2 million after tax, or $0.08 per diluted share) related to the settlement of a legal claim against a former service provider. This settlement was recorded in Other Income in the accompanying condensed income statement. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 35.7%, compared to 34.8% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Diluted earnings per share decreased 13.7% to $0.44 in the current quarter compared to $0.51 in the prior year.

Outlook for Next Quarter

The Company announced its net revenue outlook for the third quarter of fiscal 2010. ScanSource expects net revenues for the March 2010 quarter could range from $535 million to $555 million.
