IM Ingram Micro Inc. (delisted)

Tech Data Corporation (Nasdaq:TECD) today announced it has completed the sale of its business operations in Chile and Peru to Ingram Micro (NYSE:IM). The Company also plans to exit its operations in Uruguay.

These steps will enable Tech Data to focus its investment and development efforts on expanding its Latin America export business in Miami and its operations in Mexico, a larger and more developed IT market. The Company recently appointed industry veteran Eduardo Coronado as managing director, Tech Data Mexico. In this role, Coronado leads the strategic direction of the Company's sales and operations efforts in Mexico.

"After careful consideration, we concluded that exiting these operations was in the best interest of our business and our shareholders," said Robert M. Dutkowsky, chief executive officer, Tech Data Corporation. "Over the course of 16 years of operating in Chile, Peru and Uruguay, it has been difficult to achieve the necessary scale to consistently generate acceptable levels of profit and return on invested capital. As we have said throughout the last year, fiscal 2015 and 2016 are market and operationally-focused years for Tech Data. These moves are consistent with our approach of aligning the resources of the Company with more profitable, higher-growth areas of our business."
