Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This section of the Form 10-K generally discusses 2023 and 2022 items and year-to-year comparisons between 2023 and 2022. Discussions of 2021 items and year-to-year comparisons between 2022 and 2021 that are not included in this Form 10-K can be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

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 fact. These forward-looking statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “believes,” “seeks,” “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; disruptions or inefficiencies in the supply chain; political instability; impacts of military conflict and sanctions; industry conditions; changes in product supply, pricing and customer demand; competition; other vagaries in the global components and the global enterprise computing solutions (“ECS”) markets; deteriorating economic conditions, including economic recession, inflation, tax rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or the availability of capital; the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events; changes in relationships with key suppliers; increased profit margin pressure; changes in legal and regulatory matters; non-compliance with certain regulations, such as export, antitrust, and anti-corruption laws; foreign tax and other loss contingencies; breaches of security or privacy of business information; outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or public health crises; 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 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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:

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader 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.

Table of Contents

Substantially all of the company’s sales are made on an order-by-order basis, rather than through long-term sales contracts. As such, the nature of the company’s business does not provide for the visibility of material forward-looking information from its customers and suppliers beyond a few months.

Gross Profit

Following is an analysis of the company’s consolidated gross profit for the years ended December 31:

​

The sum of the components for gross profit on a constant currency basis may not agree to totals, as presented, due to rounding.

The decrease in gross profit for 2023 related to declines in sales and gross profit margins for the global components business, partially offset by increases in gross profit margins from the global ECS business.

Operating Expenses

Following is an analysis of the company’s consolidated operating expenses for the years ended December 31:

​

The sum of the components for non-GAAP operating expenses may not agree to totals, as presented, due to rounding.

The declines in operating expenses for 2023, relative to the year-earlier periods, were primarily related to lower variable costs, in line with the decrease in sales discussed above, and $62.2 million in settlement funds received in connection with certain legal matters, which were recorded as a reduction of operating expenses. The decreases for 2023 were partially offset by increases in charges taken for the allowance for credit losses of $37.4 million relative to the year-earlier period, primarily due to an increase in the reserves associated with a limited number of customers. Additionally, restructuring, integration, and other charges increased $70.2 million (see discussion below). Refer to Note 15, “Contingencies” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for discussion of the legal settlement funds received.

Table of Contents

Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges

Restructuring initiatives and integration costs are due to the company’s continued efforts to lower costs, drive operational efficiency, integrate acquired businesses, and consolidate certain operations, as necessary. The following table presents the components of the restructuring, integration, and other charges for the years ended December 31:

For 2023, other charges include $29.4 million related to early lease terminations, $23.3 million related to an increase in environmental liabilities, and personnel charges of $19.1 million related to operating expense reduction initiatives. Refer to Note 9, “Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges” and Note 15, “Contingencies” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the company’s restructuring and integration activities.

Operating Income

Following is an analysis of the company’s consolidated operating income, and operating income for the company’s two reportable segments for the years ended December 31:

​

The sum of the components of consolidated operating income do not agree to totals, as presented, because operating income for the corporate segment is not included in the table above. Refer to Note 16 “Segment and Geographic Information” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

The decrease in consolidated operating income as a percentage of sales for 2023 relates primarily to the decline in sales and gross profit margins discussed above, and was offset partially by the decrease in operating expenses discussed above.

Gain (Loss) on Investments, Net

Gains and losses on investments are primarily related to the changes in fair value of assets related to the Arrow supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) pension plan, which consists primarily of life insurance policies and mutual fund assets, as well as changes in the fair value of the company’s investment in Marubun Corporation, refer to Note 7 “Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value”.

Interest and Other Financing Expense, Net

The increase for 2023 primarily relates to higher interest rates on outstanding borrowings and floating rate credit facilities. Refer to the section below titled “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for more information on changes in borrowings.

Income Tax

The company records a provision for income taxes for the anticipated tax consequences of the reported financial results of operations using the asset and liability method. The following table presents the company's effective income tax rate deviation from the non-GAAP effective tax rate for the years ended December 31:

The sum of the components for non-GAAP effective income tax rate may not agree to totals, as presented, due to rounding.

The company’s effective tax rate deviates from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate mainly due to the mix of foreign taxing jurisdictions in which the company operates and where its foreign subsidiaries generate taxable income, among other things. The change in the effective tax rate for 2023, compared to the year-earlier period, is primarily due to changes in the utilization of tax credits, foreign exchange losses, valuation allowances, and liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

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 $2.2 billion in addition to $218.1 million of cash on hand at December 31, 2023. 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 as deemed necessary.

The company’s principal sources of liquidity are existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and cash provided by its revolving credit facilities and debt. The company’s principal uses of liquidity include cash used in operations, investments to grow working capital, scheduled interest and principal payments on its borrowings, and the return of cash to shareholders through share repurchases.

The following table presents selected financial information related to liquidity at December 31:

​

​

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, increased to 23.4% at December 31, 2023 compared to 19.3% at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to lower sales while inventory only declined by 2.5% (see discussion in the Business environment and other trends section above). Sales for the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022 were $7.8 billion and $9.3 billion, respectively.

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, 2023 and 2022, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $218.1 million and $176.9 million, respectively, of which $160.0 million and $160.8 million, respectively, were held outside the United States.

The company has $4.8 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. The company has $2.1 billion of foreign earnings that are not deemed permanently reinvested and are available for distribution in future periods as of December 31, 2023.

Revolving Credit Facilities and Debt

The following table summarizes the company’s credit facilities by category at December 31:

​

​

The company also has an EMEA asset securitization program under which it continuously sells its interest in designated pools of trade accounts receivables of certain of its subsidiaries in the EMEA region. Receivables sold under the program are excluded from “Accounts receivable, net” and no corresponding liability is recorded on the company’s consolidated balance sheets. During 2023 and 2022, the average daily balance outstanding under the EMEA asset securitization program was $626.4 million and $472.7 million, respectively. Refer to Note 4 “Accounts Receivable” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

​

Refer to Note 6, “Debt” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the company’s short-term and long-term debt and available financing.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the company’s cash flows by category for the periods presented:

​

Table of Contents

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities during 2023 was $705.4 million and the net amount of cash used for the company’s operating activities during 2022 was $33.1 million. The change in cash provided by operating activities during 2023, compared to the year-earlier period, related primarily to the company’s historical counter-cyclical cash flow as the company generates cash flow in periods of decreased demand growth due to lower investment in working capital.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during 2023 and 2022 was $72.3 million and $57.7 million, respectively. The change in cash used for investing activities related primarily to proceeds from the settlement of the net investment hedge in 2023 offset by the proceeds from collections of notes receivable during 2022.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The net amount of cash used for financing activities during 2023 was $666.2 million and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities in 2022 was $109.8 million. The change in cash flows from financing activities was primarily due to debt levels remaining consistent during 2023, while debt increased $1.1 billion during 2022 in order to support growth. These changes were partially offset by lower share repurchases in 2023.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures were $83.3 million and $78.8 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. The company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $90.0 million for fiscal year 2024.

Share-Repurchase Program

The company repurchased 6.1 million shares of common stock for $745.9 million and 9.3 million shares of common stock for $1.0 billion in 2023 and 2022, respectively, under the share-repurchase program, excluding excise taxes. During 2023, the company accrued $6.6 million of excise tax, which is recorded within “Treasury stock” on the company’s consolidated balance sheets and reduces the share-repurchase authorization.  On January 31, 2023, the company’s Board of Directors approved a $1.0 billion increase to the company’s share-repurchase program. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $576.2 million remained available for repurchase.  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.

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:

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 affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. 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.

The company believes the following critical accounting policies involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:

Revenue Recognition

The company recognizes revenue as control of products is transferred to customers, which generally happens at the point of shipment. Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates, and returns, which historically have not been material. The company allows its customers to return product for exchange or credit in limited circumstances. The company also provides volume rebates and other discounts to certain customers which are considered a variable consideration. A provision for customer rebates and other discounts is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time of sale based on an evaluation of the contract terms and historical experience. Tariffs are included in sales as the company has enforceable rights to additional consideration to cover the cost of tariffs. Other taxes imposed by governmental authorities on the company’s revenue producing activities with customers, such as sales taxes and value-added taxes, are excluded from net sales.

34

Table of Contents

Products sold by the company are generally delivered via shipment from the company's facilities, drop shipment directly from the vendor, or by electronic delivery of keys for software products. The company is the principal in these transactions, as it is principally responsible for fulfilling the order, which includes negotiating price both with the supplier and customer, payment to the supplier, establishing payment terms with the customer, product returns, and has risk of loss if the customer does not make payment. Sales, where the company is the principal in the transaction, are reported on the gross amount billed to a customer less discounts, rebates, and returns (referred to as “sales recognized on a gross basis”).

The company has contracts with certain customers where the company’s performance obligation is to arrange for the products or services to be provided by another party. The company is the agent in these arrangements, which relate to the sale of supplier-provided service contracts to customers or the rendering of logistics services for the delivery of inventory for which the company does not assume the risks and rewards of ownership. Sales, where the company is the agent, are reported as the amount billed to the customer net of the cost of the sale (referred to as “sales recognized on a net basis”).

No single customer accounted for more than 2% of the company’s 2023 consolidated sales. One supplier accounted for approximately 10% of the company’s consolidated sales in 2023. The company believes that many of the products it sells are available from other sources at competitive prices. However, certain parts of the company’s business, such as the company’s global ECS reportable segment, rely on a limited number of suppliers with the strategy of providing focused support, extensive product knowledge, and customized service to suppliers, value-added resellers (“VARs”), and managed service providers (“MSPs”). Most of the company’s purchases are pursuant to distributor agreements, which are typically non-exclusive and cancelable by either party at any time or on short notice.

Trade Accounts and Notes Receivable

Trade accounts and notes receivable are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the receivables’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected. Receivables are written off against the allowance when management believes the receivable balance is confirmed to be uncollectible. Refer to Notes 1 and 4.

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.

Expected credit losses are estimated on a collective (pool) basis, when similar risk characteristics exist, based on customer credit ratings, which include both externally acquired as well as internally determined credit ratings. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Write-downs of inventories to market value are based upon contractual provisions governing price protection, stock rotation rights, and obsolescence, as well as assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If assumptions about future demand change and/or actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the company, additional write-downs of inventories may be required. Due to the large number of transactions and the complexity of managing the process around price protections and stock rotations, estimates are made regarding adjustments to the book cost of inventories. Actual amounts could be different from those estimated.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in

35

Table of Contents

which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The carrying value of the company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions. Should the company determine that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets is established in the period such determination is made. 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.

Contingencies and Litigation

From time to time, the company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims related to environmental, regulatory, labor, product, 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 reserves required, if any, is made after careful analysis. The 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.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. The company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter and/or when an event occurs or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment may exist. Examples of such events and circumstances that the company would consider include the following:

36

Table of Contents

Goodwill is tested at a level of reporting referred to as “the reporting unit.” The company’s reporting units are defined as:

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. 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 shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

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. Actual results may differ from those assumed in the company’s forecasts. 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 2023, 2022, and 2021, the company’s annual impairment testing did not indicate impairment at any of the company’s reporting units.

As of the date of the company’s 2023 annual impairment test, the fair value of all reporting units exceeded their carrying values by more than 19%. Refer to Note 2. 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 8%.

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 was required to recognize an impairment charge in the future, the charge would not impact the company’s consolidated cash flows, current liquidity, capital resources, and covenants under its existing revolving credit facility, North American asset securitization program, other outstanding borrowings, and EMEA asset securitization program.

As of December 31, 2023, the company has $2.1 billion of goodwill, of which approximately $568.2 million and $110.0 million was allocated to the Americas and EMEA reporting units within the global components reportable segment, respectively, $783.6 million and $391.7 million was allocated to the North America and EMEA reporting units within the global ECS reportable segment, respectively, and $197.0 million was allocated to the eInfochips reporting unit. Within the global components reportable segment, the Asia/Pacific reporting unit’s goodwill was previously fully impaired.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2023-09.

37

Table of Contents

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU No. 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires that an entity disclose significant segment expenses, a description of “other segment items,” and the title and position of the chief operating decision maker along with an explanation of how the reported segment profit or loss is assessed and allocated. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods after December 15, 2024. The amendments in this ASU will be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2023-07.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations (“ASU No. 2022-04”). ASU No. 2022-04 requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, and potential magnitude. The amendments in this ASU were applied retrospectively to each period in which a balance sheet was presented, with the exception of a new requirement to disclose a roll forward of program activity, which was applied prospectively. Effective January 1, 2023, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2022-04 on a prospective basis. Refer to Note 5.
