Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

This report includes “forward-looking statements,” as the term is defined under the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are those statements which are not statements of historical or current fact. These forward-looking statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “believes,” “seeks,” “projected,” “potential,” “estimates,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or facts to differ materially from such statements for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: unfavorable economic conditions or changes, including those that may occur in connection with recession, inflation, tax rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or the availability of capital; impacts of military conflict and sanctions; political instability and changes; trade protection measures, tariffs, increased trade tensions, trade agreements and policies, and other restrictions, duties, and value-added taxes, and the associated macroeconomic impacts; disruptions, shortages, or inefficiencies in the supply chain; non-compliance with certain laws, regulations, or executive orders, such as trade, export, antitrust, and anti-corruption laws, or regulatory restrictions relating to the company or its subsidiaries or the permissibility of third-parties to transact therewith; the inability to realize sufficient sales to cover non-cancellable purchase obligations under certain ECS distribution agreements; management transitions, including the company’s search for a permanent CEO; the incurrence of unanticipated charges or failure to realize contemplated cost savings in connection with the Operating Expense Efficiency Plan; changes in product supply, pricing, and customer demand; increased profit-margin pressure resulting from industry conditions, competition, or other factors; changes in relationships with key suppliers; other vagaries in the Global Components and the Global ECS markets; changes to applicable laws, regulations, executive orders, or rules relating to government contractors and the resulting legal and reputational exposure, including but not limited to those relating to environmental, social, governance, cybersecurity, data privacy, and artificial intelligence issues; commercial disputes, patent infringement claims, product liability lawsuits, or other legal proceedings; foreign tax and other loss contingencies; failure, disruption, or compromise of the company’s information systems or those of a third-party service provider, including unauthorized use or disclosure of company, supplier, or customer information; outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or public health crises; the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events; and the company’s ability to generate positive cash flow. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause the company’s future results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in other filings the company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. The company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any of the forward-looking statements.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information in the sections below captioned “Sales,” “Gross Profit,” “Operating Expenses,” “Operating Income,” “Income Tax,” and “Net Income Attributable to Shareholders.” Refer to these sections below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable reported GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial information includes the following:

●

Non-GAAP sales exclude the impact of changes in foreign currencies by retranslating prior period results at current period foreign exchange rates.

●

Non-GAAP gross profit excludes inventory recoveries related to the wind down of businesses within Global Components (“impact of wind down to inventory”) and impact of changes in foreign currencies.

●

Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization; restructuring, integration, and other; and impact of changes in foreign currencies.

●

Non-GAAP operating income excludes identifiable intangible asset amortization; restructuring, integration, and other; and impact of wind down to inventory.

​

Table of Contents

●

Non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP net income attributable to shareholders exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization; restructuring, integration, and other; impact of wind down to inventory; (loss) gain on investments, net, and tax adjustments related to wind down of a business.

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to better assess and understand the company’s operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management, especially when comparing results with previous periods. Management typically monitors the business as adjusted for these items, in addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting purposes, for short-term and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate the company’s financial performance. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP. For a discussion of what is included within “Restructuring, integration, and other” refer to the similarly captioned sections of this item below.

Key Business Metrics

Management uses gross billings as an operational metric to monitor the operating performance of Global ECS, including performance by geographic region, as it provides meaningful supplemental information in evaluating the overall performance of the Global ECS business. The company uses this key metric to develop financial forecasts, make strategic decisions, and prepare and approve annual budgets. Gross billings represent amounts invoiced to customers for goods and services during a specified period and does not include the impact of recording sales on a net basis or sales adjustments, such as trade discounts and other allowances. Refer to Note 1 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, for further discussion of the company’s revenue recognition policies. The use of gross billings has certain limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue.

Business environment and other trends:

●

Within global ECS, the company has entered into certain non-cancellable multi-year purchase obligations through 2032, designating it as the exclusive partner for certain products and granting it the right to sell a broad set of IT solutions. In 2025, the company recorded losses due to lower profit expectations on certain underperforming contracts which negatively impacted gross profit margins. Heading into 2026, the company is continuing to adapt to best service these obligations and is committed to focusing on optimizing, enhancing and scaling these offerings. Due to the early stages and expected variability in the margins related to these contracts, the long-term performance of the agreements cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, and the company is anticipating there could be additional losses in the coming quarters on certain agreements.

●

Between October 8, 2025, and October 17, 2025, three of the company’s subsidiaries in China were added to the “Entity List” of the BIS, which restricted their ability to receive exports of U.S. technology from suppliers. During that time period, the subsidiaries were unable to receive shipments from many suppliers and fulfill corresponding

29

Table of Contents

customer orders, which resulted in marginal lost sales by global components in the Asia/Pacific region in the fourth quarter of 2025. The company does not anticipate that this event will have a negative impact on sales in the first quarter of 2026 or future periods.

●

During 2024, global components experienced a cyclical downturn characterized by elevated customer inventory levels, and a challenging global macroeconomic environment, contributing to lower demand for the company’s products. In 2025, the company began realizing stronger demand trends in all regions and consistent with historical trends from past cyclical downturns, the Asia/Pacific region returned to growth ahead of the Americas and EMEA regions. Despite the temporary business disruption within the Asia/Pacific region related to the BIS entity list incident described above, both the Asia/Pacific and Americas regions saw an increase in sales compared to the year-earlier period. The company anticipates that demand for components will continue to gradually increase aided by the market focus on AI technology. As the market recovery progresses, the company is focusing on efficient deployment and reallocation of working capital investments to maximize margins. While leading indicators are incrementally improving, the company cannot currently predict whether this trend will continue or how it may impact future quarters due to geopolitical and economic uncertainty.

●

The company’s global business continues to face uncertainty around ongoing developments related to U.S. and foreign tariff policies and is continuing to evaluate and further implement mitigating actions, including supply chain optimization and improved solutions around processing tariffs. Global components continues to see a marginal increase in revenue and cost of sales due to price increases. Given the uncertain and evolving nature of U.S. and foreign tariff policies, the company cannot currently predict whether this trend will continue or how it may impact future quarters. Refer to Item 1A - Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion related to tariffs and tariff drawbacks.

​

During 2025, consolidated sales increased compared to the year-earlier period due to changes in foreign currencies as well as;

Global components sales increased compared to the year-earlier period, primarily due to the following:

●

increase in sales in the Americas region primarily due to higher demand for the integrated services offerings, partially offset by a decrease in demand for defense, transportation, and automative verticals; and an

●

increase in sales in the Asia/Pacific region primarily due to higher demand for computing, industrial and transportation verticals;

Within global ECS, sales increased primarily in the EMEA region, relative to the year-earlier period, mainly due to growth across most major technologies, most notably, cloud-based solutions and infrastructure software, and a shift in sales mix towards more sales recognized on a gross basis.

​

Global components gross profit margins decreased during 2025, compared with the year-earlier period, due to regional mix shifting toward the Asia/Pacific region which generally has lower margins compared to Americas and EMEA regions as well as changes in customer mix within EMEA region and product mix in the Americas region. Global components supply chain services offerings continued to have a positive impact on gross profit margins.

Global ECS gross profit margins decreased during 2025, compared with the year-earlier period, due to $18.3 million in net losses related to underperformance of certain non-cancellable multi-year purchase obligations and a shift in sales mix towards more sales recognized on a gross basis in the EMEA region.

Operating expenses increased during 2025 compared to the year-earlier period, primarily due to:

●

changes in foreign currencies;

●

increase in operating expenses in global components primarily due to higher sales incentives, in line with the increase in sales discussed above; and

●

increase in operating expenses for global ECS primarily due to increased employee headcount and higher sales incentives, in line with the increase in sales discussed above, costs to expand the business related to the multi-year non-cancellable purchase obligations discussed above, and a $20.0 million benefit related to the reversal of an allowance for credit losses due to the collection of certain aged receivables related to one customer in 2024 with no similar items recorded in 2025.

These factors were offset by a

●

decrease in corporate operating expenses primarily due to a decrease in restructuring, integration and other charges (see discussion below) and reversal of stock-based compensation expense mainly due to equity-award forfeitures, which were partially offset by an increase in professional fees.

​

Operating Expense Efficiency Plan

​

On October 31, 2024, in response to evolving business needs and as part of an initiative to optimize operating expenses, the company announced a multi-year restructuring plan (the “Operating Expense Efficiency Plan” or “the Plan”). The Plan is designed to improve operational efficiency through the following measures: (i) reorganizing and consolidating certain areas of the company’s operations to centralize functions and streamline resources, with a focus on more cost-efficient regions; (ii) enhancing warehouse and logistics operations; (iii) investing in information technology to support automation and process improvements; (iv) consolidating the company’s global real estate footprint; (v) reducing third-party spending; and (vi) winding down certain non-core businesses that are not aligned with the company’s strategic objectives. The company expects to substantially complete the Plan by the end of fiscal year 2026, subject to, among other things, local legal and consultation requirements.

​

Under the Plan, the company anticipates to incur pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $200.0 million which is an increase of $15.0 million compared to the original estimate of $185.0 million previously disclosed in Item 2.05 Form 8K filed on October 31, 2024.  While the expected cash charges are in line with original expectations, the increase is primarily related to non-cash write-offs due to changes in foreign currencies.  The composition of these costs will continue to evolve over time the company currently expects to incur approximately $100.0 million of employee severance and other personnel cash expenditures; approximately $65.0 million of non-cash asset impairments, inventory write-downs and foreign currency translation adjustment write-offs related to the wind down of certain business operations; and approximately $35.0 million of other related cash expenditures. As a result of the company’s philosophy of maximizing operating efficiencies through the centralization of certain functions, restructuring, integration, and related costs are included in the corporate line item for management and segment reporting as they are not attributable to the individual reportable segments.

​

As a result of the Plan, the company expects to reduce annual operating expenses by approximately $90.0 million to $100.0 million by the end of fiscal year 2026. The estimates of charges or savings related to the Plan could differ materially from actual charges or savings recognized.

​

Refer to Note 9 - “Restructuring, Integration, and Other” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s restructuring and integration activities.

The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate for 2025 was primarily driven by a shift in jurisdictional mix of earnings, the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in certain locations, the tax treatment of stock-based compensation, an increase in gain on investments and adjustments to reserves for uncertain tax positions.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted, significantly amending U.S. federal tax law, including changes to international tax provisions, expensing of research and experimental expenditures, depreciation, and interest deduction rules. The company does not expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on its effective tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management believes that the company’s current cash availability, its current borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and asset securitization programs, and its expected ability to generate future operating cash flows are sufficient to meet its projected cash flow needs for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. The company’s committed and undrawn liquidity stands at over $2.5 billion in addition to $306.5 million of cash on hand at December 31, 2025. The company also may issue debt or equity securities in the future and management believes the company will have adequate access to the capital markets, if needed. The company continually evaluates its liquidity requirements and would seek to amend its existing borrowing capacity or access the financial markets if necessary.

Working Capital

The company maintains a significant investment in working capital which the company defines as accounts receivable, net, plus inventories less accounts payable.

​

Working capital, as a percentage of sales, which is defined as working capital divided by annualized quarterly sales, decreased to 21.3% at December 31, 2025 compared to 23.0% at December 31, 2024. Sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024 were $8.7 billion and $7.3 billion, respectively. The decrease in working capital as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the increase in sales.

​

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into cash, with original maturities of three months or less. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $306.5 million and $188.8 million, respectively, of which $241.6 million and $164.0 million, respectively, were held outside the U.S. 

As of December 31, 2025, the company has $5.4 billion of undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries which it deems indefinitely reinvested, and recognizes that it may be subject to additional foreign taxes and U.S. state income taxes if it reverses its indefinite reinvestment assertion on these foreign earnings.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities during 2025 and 2024 was $64.0 million and $1.1 billion, respectively. The change in cash provided by operating activities during 2025, compared to the year-earlier period, relates primarily to an increase in inventory to support future growth in response to the expected market recovery coupled with an increase in sales. The fluctuations in both “Accounts receivable, net” and “Accounts payable” are primarily related to the global components supply chain services offerings and generally correlated as the company acts as an intermediary in the transaction and remits payments to the supplier upon receipt from the customer. Refer to Note 4 - “Accounts Receivable” within Item 8.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The net amount of cash provided by investing activities during 2025 was $23.6 million compared to $94.4 million of cash used for investing activities in 2024. The change in cash provided by (used for) investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the sale of an investment in certain equity securities (refer to Note 3 - “Investments in Affiliated Companies” within Item 8) and proceeds for the settlement of net investment hedges (refer to Note 7 - “Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value” within Item 8).

38

Table of Contents

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The net amount of cash used for financing activities was $206.1 million during 2025 compared to $956.8 in 2024. The change in cash used for financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in short term and other borrowings, lower redemption of notes and lower share repurchases in 2025.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures were $101.3 million and $92.7 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. The company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $100.0 million for fiscal year 2026.

Share Repurchase Program

The company repurchased 1.3 million shares of common stock for $149.9 million and 2.0 million shares of common stock for $250.0 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, under its share repurchase program, excluding excise taxes. As of December 31, 2025, approximately $172.9 million remained available for repurchase under the share repurchase program. The share repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and the pace of the repurchase activity will depend on factors such as the company’s working capital needs, cash requirements for acquisitions, debt repayment obligations or repurchases of debt, share price, and economic and market conditions. The share repurchase program may be accelerated, suspended, delayed, or discontinued at any time subject to the approval of the company’s Board of Directors.

Contractual Obligations

The company has contractual obligations for short-term and long-term debt, interest on short-term and long-term debt, purchase obligations, and operating leases.

●

At December 31, 2025, the company had $3.1 billion of total debt outstanding, $0.3 million of which matures in the next twelve months. The remaining debt has maturity dates between 2027 and 2034. During April 2025, the company repaid in full the $350.0 million principal amount of its 4.00% notes due April 2025.  Refer to Note 6 - “Debt” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s short-term and long-term debt and available financing.

●

Amounts related to total interest on long-term debt at December 31, 2025 totaled $501.1 million, with $107.0 million expected to be paid within the next 12 months.

Additional Capital Requirements and Sources

Recent and expected other capital requirements and sources, in addition to the above matters, also include the items described below:

●

Employee Benefit Plans: The company maintains an unfunded executive pension plan under which the company will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain employees upon retirement. As of December 31, 2025, the company had designated $119.3 million in assets to cover the ongoing costs of SERP payouts for both current and former executives. The projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2025 and 2024, was $87.6 million and $83.0 million, respectively. Refer to Note 13 - “Employee Benefit Plans” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s executive pension plan.

●

Environmental liabilities: The company is involved in certain ongoing environmental cleanup activities and legal proceedings, the outcomes of which are inherently uncertain. Refer to Note 15 - “Contingencies” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s environmental liabilities.

●

Hedging activities: The company has entered into certain foreign exchange forward contracts designated as net investment hedges. As of December 31, 2025, all such contracts were in an asset position in the amount of $16.8 million. Refer to Note 7 - “Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s hedging activities.

●

Restructuring activities: In an effort to address evolving business needs and optimize operating expenses, the company initiated the Operating Expense Efficiency Plan which is expected to incur pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $200.0 million in total costs of which $156.4 million has been incurred as of December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 9 - “Restructuring, Integration, and Other” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s restructuring activities.

●

Sales of trade receivables: In the normal course of business, certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly, they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 4 - “Accounts Receivable” within Item 8 for further discussion of the company’s factoring arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The company has established detailed policies and control procedures intended to ensure the appropriateness of such estimates and assumptions and their consistent application from period to period. The company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

40

Table of Contents

For a description of the company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 1 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” within Item 8. The following components of the consolidated financial statements contain critical accounting estimates:

Trade Accounts Receivable

Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information about expected credit losses and an age-based reserve model. Inputs to the model include information about historical credit losses, customer credit ratings, past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current receivable-specific risk characteristics such as changes in the economic and industry environment, or other relevant factors. These adjustments as well as other inputs such as the identification of credit risk pools, and age-based allowances require significant judgment and are inherently uncertain. This uncertainty can produce volatility in the company’s allowance for credit losses. In addition, the allowance for credit losses could be insufficient to cover actual losses, which would negatively impact net income.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Write-downs of inventories to net realizable value for excess or obsolete inventories are based upon contractual provisions governing supplier price protections and stock rotation rights, the age of inventories, inventory turnover, as well as assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Due to the large number of products, markets, and transactions, and the complexity of managing the process around price protections and stock rotations, there is a high degree of judgment required for estimates made regarding demand for age-based inventory and future market conditions, after considering supplier protection provisions.

Income Taxes

The company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. The evaluation of the company's valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions involves significant judgment in the interpretation and application of GAAP and complex domestic and international tax laws. The assessment of the need for a valuation allowance requires judgment on the part of management with respect to the benefits that could be realized from future taxable income, as well as other positive and negative factors. It is also the company’s policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. To the extent the company prevails in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established, or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, or when other facts and circumstances change, the company’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be materially affected. Refer to Note 8 - “Income Taxes” within Item 8 for further discussion.

Contingencies and Litigation

From time to time, the company is subject to legal claims, regulatory proceedings, and lawsuits related to environmental, intellectual property, labor, product liability, tax, and other matters and assesses the likelihood of an adverse judgment or outcome for these matters, as well as the range of potential losses. A determination of the required reserves, if any, is made after careful analysis. Significant judgments are made when determining if these reserves may change in the future due to new developments impacting the probability of a loss, the estimate of such loss, and the probability of recovery of such loss from third parties. These matters are reviewed at least on a quarterly basis. Refer to Note 15 - “Contingencies” within Item 8 for further discussion.

Goodwill

The company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment test annually and this test is used to both identify and measure impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Goodwill is tested at a level referred to as a reporting unit. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit is less than its fair value, no impairment exists. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Refer to the table below for a list of the company’s reporting units and the respective allocation of goodwill at December 31:

The sum of the subtotals for goodwill by reporting unit may not agree to the total, as presented, due to rounding.

(a) Within global components, the Asia/Pacific reporting unit’s goodwill was previously fully impaired.

The company estimates the fair value of a reporting unit using the income approach. For the purposes of the income approach, fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. The assumptions included in the income approach include forecasted revenues, gross profit margins, operating income margins, working capital, perpetual growth rates, income tax rates, and long-term discount rates, among others, all of which require significant judgments by management. The company also reconciles its discounted cash flow analysis to its current market capitalization allowing for a reasonable control premium. As of the first day of the fourth quarters of 2025, 2024, and 2023, the company’s annual impairment testing did not indicate impairment of any of the company’s reporting units.

As of the date of the company’s 2025 annual impairment test, the fair value of all reporting units exceeded their carrying values by more than 20%. Discount rates are one of the more significant assumptions used in the income approach. If the company increased the discount rates used by 100 basis points, the fair value of all reporting units would still exceed their carrying values by more than 11%.

Actual results may differ from those assumed in the company’s forecasts. A decline in general economic conditions or global equity valuations could impact the judgments and assumptions about the fair value of the company’s businesses, and the company could be required to record an impairment charge in the future, which could impact the company’s consolidated balance sheets, as well as the company’s consolidated statements of operations. If the company were required to recognize an impairment charge in the future, the charge would not impact the company’s consolidated cash flows, current liquidity, capital resources, or covenants under its existing revolving credit facility, North American asset securitization program, other outstanding borrowings, and EMEA asset securitization program.
