Consolidated Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights
Regional Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights
North America
Net sales were $4.7 billion, compared to $4.5 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase in North American net sales was driven by strength across all lines of business, particularly PCs, server and storage. 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.
Income from operations was $90.9 million, compared to $106.9 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $4.3 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year fiscal fourth quarter.
Income from operations margin was 2.23%, compared to 2.59% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, as well as restructuring costs impacting the current year fiscal fourth quarter by 11 basis points.
Asia-Pacific
Net sales were $3.6 billion, compared to $3.3 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The increase in Asia-Pacific net sales was driven by net sales of client and endpoint solutions, led by growth in tablets and consumer electronics product sales, partially offset by softer advanced solutions.
Income from operations was $53.5 million, compared to $76.4 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.
Income from operations margin was 1.49%, compared to 2.29% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. These regional results include a 56 basis point negative impact of the discrete charges in India noted previously. The remaining year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily the result of a greater mix of lower-margin client and endpoint solutions offset partially by improved operating expense leverage.
Latin America
Net sales were $1.0 billion in both the current and prior fiscal fourth quarter. The 0.9% decrease in Latin American net sales was primarily driven by currency translation rates, which had a negative impact of 8.4% on the year-over-year comparison of net sales. All lines of business grew year-over-year on an FX neutral basis.
Income from operations was $44.1 million, compared to $34.1 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.
Income from operations margin was 4.35%, compared to 3.34% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase in income from operations margin was a result of strong sales growth in higher-margin advanced solutions and cloud offerings.

Consolidated Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights
Regional Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights
North America
Net sales were $17.4 billion, compared to $18.2 billion in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in North American net sales was driven by declines in advanced solutions and client and endpoint solutions, partially offset by strong growth in cloud and other.
Income from operations was $322.2 million, compared to $350.9 million in the prior fiscal year.
Income from operations margin was 1.85%, compared to 1.93% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, partially offset by continued optimization of our operating expenses, including restructuring actions taken in 2023 and early 2024.
EMEA
Net sales were $14.3 billion, a decrease of 1.5% compared to the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in EMEA net sales was primarily a result of a decrease in advanced solutions, partially offset by solid growth in cloud and modest growth in client and endpoint solutions.
Income from operations was $259.4 million, compared to $317.2 million in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $13.9 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year.
Income from operations margin was 1.82%, compared to 2.19% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, including a challenging comparison to prior year where margins and vendor programs were stronger, particularly on certain supply-constrained products mainly in advanced solutions. The restructuring charges noted above, as well as an increase in SG&A expenses driven by inflationary and other factors, also impacted this year-over-year comparison.
Asia-Pacific
Net sales were $12.8 billion, compared to $11.6 billion in the prior fiscal year. The increase in Asia-Pacific net sales was driven by stronger net sales of client and endpoint solutions, led by growth in smartphones and consumer electronics. The translation impact of foreign currencies relative to the US Dollar had an approximate 1% negative impact on the year-over-year net sales comparison.
Income from operations was $223.4 million, compared to $247.1 million in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $5.7 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year.
