Consolidated Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

• Net sales totaled $13.3 billion, compared to $13.0 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter, representing an increase of 2.5%. The year-over-year increase was primarily a result of higher net sales in our North America, Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions, partially offset by a net sales decline in our EMEA region. The translation impact of foreign currencies relative to the US Dollar had an approximate 0.8% negative impact on the year-over-year net sales comparison.

• Gross profit was $936.1 million, compared to $978.7 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

• Gross margin was 7.01%, compared to 7.52% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was driven by a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions net sales, as well as mix towards the lower-margin, lower cost-to-serve Asia-Pacific region and a higher mix of large enterprise project sales, which typically yield lower margins.

• Income from operations was $248.5 million, compared to $330.9 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Adjusted income from operations was $305.2 million, compared to $372.8 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Included in the results for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2024 is $34.1 million of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, or 26 basis points of net sales, representing the value of restricted stock units that immediately vested in connection with our initial public offering (“IPO”) in October 2024. Also included in these results are the impacts of discrete charges in India, which yielded inventory write-offs impacting gross profit by $9.1 million, or 7 basis points of net sales, and goods and services tax charges and higher professional services costs impacting operating expenses by $11.2 million, or 8 basis points of net sales in the 2024 quarter.

• Income from operations margin was 1.86%, compared to 2.54% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Adjusted income from operations margin was 2.29% compared to 2.86% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. This year-over-year decrease was primarily due to the mix shift in net sales and resulting impact on gross margins, as well as the impact of restricted stock units vesting and the India charges noted above which negatively impacted the current year margin by 41 basis points.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $418.1 million, compared to $435.4 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

• Diluted EPS was $0.36, compared to $0.61 in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.92, compared to $0.99 in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The EPS impact of the India items noted above was $0.07.

North America

Net sales were $4.7 billion, compared to $4.5 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

Net sales in the current year were particularly strong with our large enterprise customers.

Income from operations was $115.2 million, compared to $125.3 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $8.6 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year fiscal fourth quarter.

Income from operations margin was 2.47%, compared to 2.76% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter, primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions and enterprise customers as well as restructuring costs impacting the current year fiscal fourth quarter by 17 basis points. These impacts were partially offset by continued optimization of our operating expenses, including restructuring actions taken in 2023 and early 2024.

EMEA

Net sales were $4.1 billion, a decrease of 1.5% compared to the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in EMEA net sales was primarily a result of a decrease in advanced solutions, partially offset by modest growth in client and endpoint solutions.

Consolidated Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights

While net sales showed strong growth in the Asia-Pacific region through the year, this was offset by softer results in the other three regions.

Combined these factors contributed to a 13 basis point negative impact on income from operations margin.
