TECH DATA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
Tech Data Corporation (“Tech Data” or the “Company”) is one of the world’s largest IT distribution and solutions companies. Tech Data serves a critical role in the center of the IT ecosystem, bringing products from the world’s leading technology vendors to market, as well as helping customers create solutions best suited to maximize business outcomes for their end-user customers. Tech Data’s customers include value-added resellers, direct marketers, retailers, corporate resellers and managed service providers who support the diverse technology needs of end users. The Company manages its operations in three geographic segments: the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
On November 12, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as subsequently amended on November 27, 2019 (the ''Merger Agreement''), with the affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”), managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (“Apollo”), a leading global alternative investment manager. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the affiliates of Apollo Funds will acquire all the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (other than shares held by the Company as treasury stock or held by certain affiliates of the Apollo Funds) for $145 per share in cash (the “Merger”).
On February 12, 2020, the Company held a special meeting of shareholders. At such meeting, the Merger Agreement was approved and adopted by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote thereon. The Company has received all regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Merger, except for the approval of the Australian Foreign Investment Review Board (“AFIRB”), which has the matter under consideration. The Company and Apollo are still targeting a closing in the first half of calendar year 2020, although this timing may shift based on the timeline for receipt of Australian regulatory approval. The Company and Apollo expect to proceed with closing the transaction promptly after the final approval from the AFIRB is received, taking into account the timing requirements of the Merger Agreement, including the Marketing Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tech Data and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company operates on a fiscal year that ends on January 31.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States ("U.S.") Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2020 and its consolidated statements of income, comprehensive (loss) income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019.
Seasonality
The Company’s quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and will likely continue to do so in the future as a result of currency fluctuations and seasonal variations in the demand for the products and services we sell. Narrow operating margins may magnify the impact of these factors on the Company's quarterly operating results. Historical seasonal variations have included an increase in European demand during the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter and decreased demand in other fiscal quarters. The seasonal trend in Europe typically results in greater operating leverage, and therefore, lower selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in the region and on a consolidated basis during the second half of the Company's fiscal year, particularly in the Company's fourth quarter.
Furthermore, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the global economy, disrupting the financial markets and creating increasing volatility, impacting customer demand and impeding global supply chains. The Company cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will have on its operations and financial condition, including due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity and duration of the pandemic, the effect on its customers and customer demand and the length of the restrictions and closures imposed by various governments. Therefore, the results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the entire fiscal year ended January 31, 2021.

Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues primarily result from the sale of various technology products and services. The Company recognizes revenue as control of products is transferred to customers, which generally happens at the point of shipment. Products sold by the Company are delivered via shipment from the Company’s facilities, dropshipment directly from the vendor, or by electronic delivery of keys for software products. In relation to product support, supply chain management and other services performed by the Company, revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed. Service revenues and related contract liabilities were not material for the periods presented.
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. In these arrangements, as the Company assumes an agency relationship in the transaction, revenue is recognized in the amount of the net fee associated with serving as an agent. These arrangements primarily relate to certain fulfillment contracts, as well as sales of software services and extended warranty services.
The Company allows its customers to return product for exchange or credit subject to certain limitations. A liability is recorded at the time of sale for estimated product returns based upon historical experience and an asset is recognized for the amount expected to be recorded in inventory upon product return. The Company also provides volume rebates and other discounts to certain customers which are considered 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.
The Company considers shipping and handling activities as costs to fulfill the sales of products. Shipping revenue is included in net sales when control of the product is transferred to the customer, and the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of products sold. 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.
The Company disaggregates its operating segment revenue by geography, which the Company believes provides a meaningful depiction of the nature of its revenue. Net sales shown in Note 11 – Segment Information includes service revenues, which are not a significant component of total revenue and are aggregated within the respective geographies.
The following table provides a comparison of sales generated from products purchased from vendors that exceeded 10% of the Company's consolidated net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 (as a percent of consolidated net sales):
 
Three months ended April 30,

Apple, Inc.
14%
 
13%
Cisco Systems, Inc.
12%
 
11%
HP Inc.

10%

Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable for future expected credit losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of its customers to make required payments. In estimating the required allowance, the Company takes into consideration historical credit losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current conditions as well as changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates or gross domestic product growth. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist using an age-based reserve model. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis.
The Company has uncommitted accounts receivable purchase agreements under which certain accounts receivable may be sold, without recourse, to third-party financial institutions. Under these programs, the Company may sell certain accounts receivable in exchange for cash less a discount, as defined in the agreements. Available capacity under these programs, which the Company uses as a source of working capital funding, is dependent on the level of accounts receivable eligible to be sold into these programs and the financial institutions' willingness to purchase such receivables. In addition, certain of these agreements also require that the Company continue to service, administer and collect the sold accounts receivable. At April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020, the Company had a total of $569.0 million and $739.2 million, respectively, of accounts receivable sold to and held by financial institutions under these agreements. During the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, discount fees recorded under these facilities were $3.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively. These discount fees are included as a component of "other expense (income), net" in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard which revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of the recognition of those losses. Under the new standard, financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis are to be presented net of the amount not expected to be collected via an allowance for credit losses. Estimated credit losses are to be based on historical information adjusted for management's expectation that current conditions and supportable forecasts differ

9


from historical experience. The Company adopted this standard during the quarter ending April 30, 2020. The adoption of this standard had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued an accounting standard which simplifies and clarifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance. The accounting standard is effective for the Company beginning with the quarter ending April 30, 2021, with early adoption permitted. Certain amendments should be applied prospectively, while other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard.
In March 2020, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provides optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying existing guidance to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions that are expected to be affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The amendments in the guidance are elective and were effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on previously reported amounts.

10


NOTE 2 — EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")
The Company presents the computation of earnings per share on a basic and diluted basis. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution related to equity-based incentives (see Note 6 – Stock-Based Compensation for further discussion) using the treasury stock method. The composition of basic and diluted EPS is as follows:

For the three months ended April 30, 2020 there were no shares excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive. For the three months ended April 30, 2019 there were 322 shares excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

11


NOTE 3 — ACQUISITIONS

DLT Acquisition
On November 25, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of DLT Solutions ("DLT"), a premier software and cloud solutions aggregator focused on the U.S. public sector. The Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of DLT for a preliminary purchase price of approximately $210 million in cash, subject to certain working capital and other adjustments. The DLT acquisition enables Tech Data to proactively develop opportunities, accelerate growth and simplify complexity for its channel partners that are serving the U.S. public sector space.
The Company has accounted for the DLT acquisition as a business combination and allocated the preliminary estimated purchase price to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation and determination of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily related to the final assessment and valuation of certain other assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including accounts receivable, deferred taxes, accrued expenses and other liabilities. Therefore, the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may vary from the Company's preliminary estimates. During the three months ended April 30, 2020, the Company updated its estimated fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including an increase in goodwill of $15 million and a decrease in intangible assets of $15 million.
The preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:
(in thousands)

9,220

       Total liabilities

       Estimated purchase price
$
210,468


The allocation of the value of identifiable intangible assets is comprised of approximately $193.0 million of customer and vendor relationships with an amortization period of 15 years and $18.4 million of trade names with an amortization period of 10 years. Goodwill is the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and primarily represents the expected cost synergies of the combined company and assembled workforce and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisition was not material to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

12


NOTE 4 — ACQUISITION, INTEGRATION AND RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES
Acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses are primarily comprised of costs related to the Global Business Optimization Program which was initiated in fiscal 2019, the proposed Merger and the fiscal 2020 acquisition of DLT.
Global Business Optimization Program
In fiscal 2019, the Company's Board of Directors approved the Global Business Optimization Program (the "GBO Program") to increase investment in the Company’s strategic priorities and implement operational initiatives to drive productivity and enhance profitability. Under the GBO Program, the Company expects to incur cumulative cash charges through fiscal 2021 of approximately $70 million to $80 million, primarily comprised of $40 million to $45 million of charges in Europe and $30 million to $35 million of charges in the Americas. The cash charges primarily consist of severance costs, and also include professional services and other costs.

Restructuring costs related to the GBO Program are comprised of the following:

Senior Notes
In January 2017, the Company issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.70% Senior Notes due February 15, 2022 (the "3.70% Senior Notes") and $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.95% Senior Notes due February 15, 2027 (the "4.95% Senior Notes") (collectively the "2017 Senior Notes"). The Company pays interest on the 2017 Senior Notes semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The interest rate payable on the 2017 Senior Notes will be subject to adjustment from time to time if the credit rating assigned to such series of notes changes. At no point will the interest rate be reduced below the interest rate payable on the notes on the date of the initial issuance or increase more than 2.00% above the interest rate payable on the notes of the series on the date of their initial issuance. The 2017 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.
The Company, at its option, may redeem the 3.70% Senior Notes at any time prior to January 15, 2022 and the 4.95% Senior Notes at any time prior to November 15, 2026, in each case in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points for the 3.70% Senior Notes and 40 basis points for the 4.95% Senior Notes, plus the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed up to the date of redemption. The Company may also redeem the 2017 Senior Notes, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, on or after January 15, 2022 for the 3.70% Senior Notes and November 15, 2026 for the 4.95% Senior Notes, in each case, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed.
On March 10, 2020, Tiger Merger Sub Co., an affiliate of certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo, launched an offer to purchase for cash any and all of the Company’s outstanding 3.70% Senior Notes and any and all of the Company’s outstanding 4.95% Senior Notes and a consent solicitation to amend the indenture and global securities establishing the 3.70% Senior Notes and the 4.95% Senior Notes to (i) eliminate the requirement to make a “change of control” offer in connection with the proposed merger of Tiger Merger Sub Co. into the Company pursuant to the Merger Agreement and (ii) make certain other customary changes for a privately-held company to the “change of control” provisions (the “Proposed Amendments”). Concurrently with, but separate from, the aforementioned offer to purchase and consent solicitation, Tiger Merger Sub Co. launched a consent solicitation for the Proposed Amendments for holders of the 4.95% Senior Notes. On March 24, 2020, Tiger Merger Sub Co. announced that the requisite more than 50% of consents were received to adopt the Proposed Amendments. The aforementioned consent solicitations were conducted by Tiger Merger Sub Co. pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, the offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement, dated March 10, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation”), and the separate consent solicitation statement, dated March 10, 2020 (the “4.95% Consent Solicitation” and, together with the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation, the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements”). On March 24, 2020, the Company entered into a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Indenture and Global Security for the 3.70% Senior Notes (the “3.70% Supplemental Indenture”) and a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Indenture and Global Security for the 4.95% Senior Notes (the “4.95% Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the 3.70% Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemental Indentures”) effecting the Proposed Amendments.
The Proposed Amendments implemented by the Supplemental Indentures will become operative with respect to the 2017 Senior Notes only at such time as the following conditions are satisfied or otherwise waived, if applicable, by Tiger Merger Sub Co.: (1) the 2017 Senior Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) have been accepted for purchase by Tiger Merger Sub Co. in accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements (and, in the case of the 4.95% Senior Notes, when Tiger Merger Sub Co. provides notice that it will pay the consent fee as part of the 4.95% Consent Solicitation) and (2) the other conditions to the consent solicitations set forth in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements, including the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger, have been satisfied.

Other Credit Facilities
The Company has a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, provides for (i) a maturity date of May 15, 2024, (ii) an interest rate on borrowings, facility fees and letter of credit fees based on the Company’s debt rating, (iii) the ability to increase the facility to a maximum of $1.75 billion, subject to certain conditions and (iv) certain subsidiaries of the Company to be designated as borrowers. The applicable borrower will pay interest on advances under the Credit Agreement based on LIBOR (or similar interbank offered rates depending on currency draw) plus a predetermined margin that is based on the Company’s debt rating. There were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.
On August 2, 2019, the Company entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “2019 Term Loan Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, (i) provides for a $300 million term loan credit facility with a maturity date of August 2, 2021, (ii) provides for an interest rate on the outstanding principal amount of the loan that is based on LIBOR plus a predetermined margin, and (iii) may be increased up to a total of $500 million, subject to certain conditions. The Company had $300 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Credit Agreement at both April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.
The Company also has an agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Receivables Securitization Program”) that allows the Company to transfer an undivided interest in a designated pool of U.S. accounts receivable, on an ongoing basis, to provide collateral for borrowings up to a maximum of $1.0 billion. The scheduled termination date of the agreement is April 16, 2021. Under this program, the Company transfers certain U.S. trade receivables into a wholly-owned bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. Such receivables, which are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, totaled approximately $1.6 billion at both April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. As collections reduce accounts receivable balances included in the collateral pool, the Company may transfer interests in new receivables to bring the amount available to be borrowed up to the maximum. Interest is to be paid on advances under the Receivables Securitization Program at the applicable commercial paper or LIBOR rate plus an agreed-upon margin. There were no amounts outstanding under the Receivables Securitization Program at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.
In addition to the facilities described above, the Company has various other committed and uncommitted lines of credit, short-term loans and overdraft facilities totaling approximately $458.2 million at April 30, 2020 to support its operations. Most of these facilities are provided on an unsecured, short-term basis and are reviewed periodically for renewal. There was $104.6 million outstanding on these facilities at April 30, 2020, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.17%, and there was $108.4 million outstanding at January 31, 2020, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.79%.
At April 30, 2020, the Company had also issued standby letters of credit of $39.6 million. These letters of credit typically act as a guarantee of payment to certain third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions. The issuance of certain of these letters of credit reduces the Company's borrowing availability under certain of the above-mentioned credit facilities.
Certain of the Company’s credit facilities contain limitations on the amounts of annual dividends and repurchases of common stock and require compliance with other obligations, warranties and covenants. The financial ratio covenants under these credit facilities include a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. At April 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all such financial covenants.

NOTE 6 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company recorded $6.3 million and $8.3 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019.
The 2018 Equity Incentive Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders in June 2018 and includes 2.0 million shares available for grant, of which approximately 1.7 million shares remain available for future grant at April 30, 2020. The Company is authorized to award officers, employees, and non-employee members of the Board of Directors restricted stock, options to purchase common stock, stock appreciation rights and performance awards that are dependent upon achievement of specified performance goals. Equity-based compensation awards have a maximum term of ten years, unless a shorter period is specified by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors ("Compensation Committee") or is required under local law. Awards under the plan are priced as determined by the Compensation Committee and are required to be priced at, or above, the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Awards generally vest between one year and three years from the date of grant. The Company’s policy is to utilize shares of its treasury stock, to the extent available, to satisfy its obligation to issue shares upon the exercise of awards.

NOTE 7 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company’s assets and liabilities carried or disclosed at fair value are classified in one of the following three categories: Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 – inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 above that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The classification of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table summarizes the valuation of the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company's derivative instruments are measured on a recurring basis based on foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency dealers (Level 2 criteria) and are marked-to-market each period (see Note 8 – Derivative Instruments for further discussion).
The Company utilizes life insurance policies to fund the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The life insurance asset recorded by the Company is the amount that would be realized upon the assumed surrender of the policy. This amount is based on the underlying fair value of the invested assets contained within the life insurance policies. The gains and losses are recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income within "other expense (income), net." The related deferred compensation liability is also marked-to-market each period based upon the returns of the various investments selected by the plan participants and the gains and losses are recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income within "selling, general and administrative expenses." The net realizable value of the Company's life insurance investments and related deferred compensation liability was $38.2 million and $38.3 million, respectively, at April 30, 2020 and $41.1 million and $41.0 million, respectively, at January 31, 2020.
The carrying value of the 2017 Senior Notes discussed in Note 5 – Debt represents cost less unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs. The estimated fair value of the 2017 Senior Notes is based upon quoted market information (Level 1). The estimated fair value of the 2017 Senior Notes was $983 million and $1.04 billion, respectively, at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020 and the carrying value was $994.9 million and $994.3 million, respectively, at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. The carrying amounts of debt outstanding pursuant to revolving credit facilities and term loan credit agreements approximated fair value as the majority of these instruments have variable interest rates which approximate current market rates (Level 2 criteria).

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company's foreign currency risk management objective has been to protect earnings and cash flows from the impact of exchange rate changes primarily through the use of foreign currency forward contracts and a cross-currency swap.
Net Investment Hedges
In fiscal 2020, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a portion of its net investment in euro denominated foreign operations which were designated as net investment hedges. The Company entered into the net investment hedges to offset the risk of change in the U.S. dollar value of the Company's investment in a euro functional subsidiary due to fluctuating foreign exchange rates. The Company terminated these net investment hedge contracts during the three months ended April 30, 2020. Gains and losses on the net investment hedges have been recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and will remain in other comprehensive income (loss) until the sale or substantial liquidation of the underlying assets of the Company's investment. The initial fair value of hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness has been recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company classifies cash flows related to the settlement of its net investment hedges as investing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
 
 
 

The following tables present the effects of the Company's net investment hedges on accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and earnings for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019:

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company entered into a cross-currency swap to hedge its cash flows related to certain foreign-currency denominated debt which was designated as a cash flow hedge. The notional value of this swap was $4.5 million at January 31, 2020 and the swap matured in February 2020. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges was initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses were subsequently reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affected earnings and have been presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. The Company has classified cash flows related to the settlement of its cash flow hedges as financing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

The following tables present the effects of the Company's cash flow hedges on AOCI and earnings for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019:

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges
The Company additionally utilizes forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments to hedge intercompany loans, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The Company’s foreign currency exposure relates primarily to international transactions where the currency collected from customers can be different from the currency used to purchase the product. The Company’s transactions in its foreign operations are denominated primarily in the following currencies: Australian dollar, British pound, Canadian dollar, Czech koruna, Danish krone, euro, Indian rupee, Indonesian rupiah, Mexican peso, Norwegian krone, Polish zloty, Singapore dollar, Swedish krona, Swiss franc and U.S. dollar.
The Company considers inventory as an economic hedge against foreign currency exposure in accounts payable in certain circumstances. This practice offsets such inventory against corresponding accounts payable denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary buying the inventory when determining the net exposure to be hedged using traditional forward contracts. Under this strategy, the Company would expect to increase or decrease selling prices for products purchased in foreign currencies based on fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates affecting the underlying accounts payable. To the extent the Company incurs a foreign currency exchange loss (gain) on the underlying accounts payable denominated in the foreign currency, a corresponding increase (decrease) in gross profit would be expected as the related inventory is sold. This strategy can result in a certain degree of quarterly earnings volatility as the underlying accounts payable is remeasured using the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at the end of each period, or settlement date if earlier, whereas the corresponding increase (decrease) in gross profit is not realized until the related inventory is sold.
The Company recognizes foreign currency exchange gains and losses on its derivative instruments not designated as hedges that are used to manage its exposures to foreign currency denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable as a component of “cost of products sold” which is consistent with the classification of the change in fair value upon remeasurement of the underlying hedged accounts receivable or accounts payable. The Company recognizes foreign currency exchange gains and losses on its derivative instruments not designated as hedges that are used to manage its exposures to foreign currency denominated financing transactions as a component of “other expense (income), net,” which is consistent with the classification of the change in fair value upon remeasurement of the underlying hedged loans. The gains and losses on the Company's foreign currency forward contracts are largely offset by the change in the fair value of the underlying hedged assets or liabilities. The Company classifies cash flows related to the settlement of forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments as operating activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
The total amount of gains (losses) recognized in earnings on the Company's derivatives not designated as hedges for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:

The Company's average notional amounts of derivatives not designated as hedges outstanding during the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 were approximately $1.3 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, with average maturities of 22 days and 24 days, respectively. As discussed above, under the Company's hedging policies, gains and losses on these derivative financial instruments are largely offset by the gains and losses on the underlying assets or liabilities being hedged.
The Company’s derivatives are also discussed in Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements.

NOTE 9 — SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Share Repurchase Program
In October 2018, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $200.0 million of the Company's common stock. In February 2019, the Board of Directors approved a $100.0 million increase to the program. In August 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $200.0 million of the Company's common stock, resulting in a total share repurchase authorization of $500.0 million. In conjunction with the Company’s share repurchase program, a 10b5-1 plan was executed that instructs the broker selected by the Company to repurchase shares on behalf of the Company. The amount of common stock repurchased in accordance with the 10b5-1 plan on any given trading day is determined by a formula in the plan, which is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock. Shares repurchased by the Company are held in treasury for general corporate purposes, including issuances under equity incentive and benefit plans. The reissuance of shares from treasury stock is based on the weighted average purchase price of the shares.
As of April 30, 2020, the Company had $222.8 million available for future repurchases of its common stock under the authorized share repurchase program. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement with the affiliates of Apollo Funds, the Company suspended its share repurchase program as of November 13, 2019.

NOTE 10 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees
The Company has arrangements with certain finance companies that provide inventory financing facilities to the Company’s customers. In conjunction with certain of these arrangements, the Company would be required to purchase certain inventory in the event the inventory is repossessed from the customers by the finance companies. As the Company does not have access to information regarding the amount of inventory purchased from the Company still on hand with the customer at any point in time, the Company’s repurchase obligations relating to inventory cannot be reasonably estimated. Repurchases of inventory by the Company under these arrangements have been insignificant to date. The Company believes that, based on historical experience, the likelihood of a material loss pursuant to these inventory repurchase obligations is remote.
Contingencies
In December 2010, in a non-unanimous decision, a Brazilian appellate court overturned a 2003 trial court which had previously ruled in favor of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary related to the imposition of certain taxes on payments abroad related to the licensing of commercial software products, commonly referred to as “CIDE tax.” The Company estimates the total exposure related to the CIDE tax, including interest, was approximately $14.3 million at April 30, 2020. The Brazilian subsidiary has appealed the unfavorable ruling to the Supreme Court and Superior Court, Brazil's two highest appellate courts. Based on the legal opinion of outside counsel, the Company believes that the chances of success on appeal of this matter are favorable and the Brazilian subsidiary intends to vigorously defend its position that the CIDE tax is not due. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an accrual for the total estimated CIDE tax exposure. However, due to the lack of predictability of the Brazilian court system, the Company has concluded that it is reasonably possible that the Brazilian subsidiary may incur a loss up to the total exposure described above. The Company believes the resolution of this litigation will not be material to the Company’s consolidated net assets or liquidity. 
The French Autorité de la Concurrence (“Competition Authority”) began in 2013 an investigation into the French market for certain products of Apple, Inc., for which the Company is a distributor. In March 2020, the Competition Authority imposed fines on the Company, on another distributor, and on Apple, finding that the Company entered into an anticompetitive agreement with Apple regarding volume allocations of Apple products. The fine imposed on the Company was €76 million. The Company has vigorously contested the arguments of the Competition Authority, and the Company intends to appeal its determination to the French courts, seeking to set aside or reduce the fine. The Company believes it has strong arguments on appeal, but the Company is unable to predict the outcome, among other reasons because of the novelty of the case and the unprecedented size of the fines imposed for this kind of practice, or how long it will take to achieve a final resolution. Under French law, however, the pendency of the Company’s appeal does not suspend the obligation to pay the fine, and the Company expects that it will be required to pay the full fine assessed by the Competition Authority before the Company’s appeal is finally determined. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of loss in these proceedings and therefore has not accrued for any loss.
The Company is subject to various other legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management does not expect that the outcome in any of these other legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates predominantly in a single industry segment as a distributor of technology products, logistics management, and other value-added services. While the Company operates primarily in one industry, it is managed based on three geographic segments: the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
The Company does not consider stock-based compensation expense in assessing the performance of its operating segments, and therefore the Company excludes stock-based compensation expense from segment information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 – Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

OVERVIEW
 
We are one of the world’s largest IT distribution and solutions companies. We serve a critical role in the center of the IT ecosystem, bringing products from the world’s leading technology vendors to market, as well as helping our customers create solutions best suited to maximize business outcomes for their end-user customers. We distribute and market products from many of the world’s leading technology hardware manufacturers and software publishers, as well as suppliers of next-generation technologies and delivery models such as converged and hyperconverged infrastructure, the cloud, security, analytics/Internet of things ("IoT"), and services. Our customers include value-added resellers, direct marketers, retailers, corporate resellers and managed service providers who support the diverse technology needs of end users.
Some of our key financial objectives are the following:
Growing faster than the industry in select markets by gaining profitable market share in key geographies within select product categories with leading vendors.
Improving operating income by growing gross profit faster than operating costs.
Delivering a return on invested capital above our weighted average cost of capital.
To strengthen our role at the center of the IT ecosystem well into the future and achieve our financial objectives, we are moving to higher value, focused on the following strategic priorities:
Invest in next-generation technologies and delivery models such as the cloud, security, analytics/IoT, and services.
Strengthen our end-to-end portfolio of products, services and solutions.
Transform our company digitally through greater automation, which we believe will enhance the customer experience, improve productivity and reduce costs.
Optimize our global footprint by enhancing the operational efficiency and effectiveness of our businesses around the world. We are focused on enhancing the long-term profitability of our business and delivering a better return on invested capital through targeted actions to remove business with lower returns, which we refer to as portfolio optimization. Portfolio optimization actions allow working capital to be re-deployed in our strategic focus areas, however, those actions may have a short-term impact on revenues and gross profit.
On November 25, 2019, we completed the acquisition of DLT Solutions ("DLT"), a premier software and cloud solutions aggregator focused on the U.S. public sector. We acquired all of the outstanding shares of DLT for a preliminary purchase price of approximately $210 million in cash, subject to certain working capital and other adjustments. The DLT acquisition enables us to proactively develop opportunities, accelerate growth and simplify complexity for our channel partners that are serving the U.S. public sector space.
Planned Acquisition
 

On November 12, 2019, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as subsequently amended on November 27, 2019 (the ''Merger Agreement''), with the affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”), managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (“Apollo”), a leading global alternative investment manager. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the affiliates of Apollo Funds will acquire all the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (other than shares held by the Company as treasury stock or held by certain affiliates of the Apollo Funds) for $145 per share in cash (the “Merger”).

24


On February 12, 2020, we held a special meeting of shareholders. At such meeting, the Merger Agreement was approved and adopted by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote thereon. The waiting period with respect to the premerger notification and report form filed by the parties under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, has expired. The Company has received all regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Merger, except for the approval of the Australian Foreign Investment Review Board (“AFIRB”), which has the matter under consideration. The Company and Apollo are still targeting a closing in the first half of calendar year 2020, although this timing may shift based on the timeline for receipt of Australian regulatory approval. The Company and Apollo expect to proceed with closing the transaction promptly after the final approval from the AFIRB is received, taking into account the timing requirements of the Merger Agreement, including the Marketing Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the global economy, disrupting the financial markets and creating increasing volatility, impacting customer demand and impeding global supply chains. In response to COVID-19, the company continues to operate with more than 95% of our global workforce participating in work-from-home arrangements and substantially all of our logistics centers are open and functioning with strict health and safety guidelines in place. We cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will have on our operations and financial condition, including due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity and duration of the pandemic, the effect on our customers and customer demand and the length of the restrictions and closures imposed by various governments; however, we expect to see a negative impact to our revenue and earnings from the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter, which may continue into the third quarter or beyond. Accordingly, the operating results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends.

25


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information. Certain of these measures are presented as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as “impact of changes in foreign currencies”). Removing the impact of the changes in foreign currencies provides a framework for assessing our financial performance as compared to prior periods. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is calculated by using the exchange rates from the prior year comparable period applied to the results of operations for the current period. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document include:

Net sales, as adjusted, which is defined as net sales adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies;

Gross profit, as adjusted, which is defined as gross profit as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies;

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), as adjusted, which is defined as SG&A as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies;

Non-GAAP operating income, which is defined as operating income as adjusted to exclude acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, legal settlements and other, net, acquisition-related intangible assets amortization expense and tax indemnifications;

Non-GAAP net income, which is defined as net income as adjusted to exclude acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, legal settlements and other, net, acquisition-related intangible assets amortization expense, tax indemnifications and the income tax effects of these adjustments;

Non-GAAP earnings per share-diluted, which is defined as earnings per share-diluted as adjusted to exclude the per share impact of acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, legal settlements and other, net, acquisition-related intangible assets amortization expense, tax indemnifications and the income tax effects of these adjustments.

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to assess and understand our financial performance as compared with results from previous periods. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance against certain operational goals and under certain of our performance-based compensation plans. 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. Additionally, because these non-GAAP measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

QUARTERLY COMMENTARY

AMERICAS
The increase in Americas net sales, as adjusted, of $181 million is primarily due to growth in personal computer systems, including increased customer demand related to remote workforce enablement as a result of COVID-19. Net sales also increased due to the acquisition of DLT in November 2019. The increase in net sales was partially offset by a decrease in data center products, including impacts due to COVID-19, coupled with portfolio optimization actions which reduced total Americas net sales by approximately 2 percent.
EUROPE
The decrease in Europe net sales, as adjusted, of $200 million is primarily due to portfolio optimization actions which reduced total Europe net sales by approximately 3 percent, a decline in mobility products, as well as a decrease in data center products including impacts due to COVID-19. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by growth in personal computer systems, including increased customer demand related to remote workforce enablement as a result of COVID-19. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is primarily due to the weakening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
ASIA-PACIFIC
The decrease in Asia-Pacific net sales, as adjusted, of $37 million is primarily due to a decrease in data center products, including portfolio optimization actions which reduced total Asia-Pacific net sales by approximately 12 percent and impacts due to COVID-19.

ACQUISITION, INTEGRATION AND RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES
Acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses are primarily comprised of costs related to the Global Business Optimization Program which was initiated in fiscal 2019, the proposed Merger and the fiscal 2020 acquisition of DLT.
Global Business Optimization Program
In fiscal 2019, our Board of Directors approved the Global Business Optimization Program (the “GBO Program”) to increase investment in our strategic priorities and implement operational initiatives to drive productivity and enhance profitability. Under the GBO Program, we expect to incur cumulative cash charges through fiscal 2021 of approximately $70 million to $80 million, primarily comprised of $40 million to $45 million of charges in Europe and $30 million to $35 million of charges in the Americas. The cash charges primarily consist of severance costs, and also include professional services and other costs. The GBO Program is expected to result in annual cost savings of $70 million to $80 million by the end of fiscal 2021, of which approximately half is expected to be reinvested to accelerate our strategic priorities.
Restructuring expenses related to the GBO Program are comprised of the following:

CONSOLIDATED COMMENTARY

The decrease in GAAP operating income of $11.5 million is primarily due to an increase in acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, payroll costs and credit costs, partially offset by lower inventory losses.

The increase in non-GAAP operating income of $4.1 million is primarily due to lower inventory losses, partially offset by an increase in payroll costs and credit costs.

EUROPE COMMENTARY

The increases in both GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating income of $9.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively, are primarily due to lower inventory losses, partially offset by an increase in payroll costs.

ASIA-PACIFIC COMMENTARY

The decreases in both GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating income of $4.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, are primarily due to a decrease in net sales volume, including impacts from COVID-19.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
OPERATING INCOME BY REGION
 
We do not consider stock-based compensation expenses in assessing the performance of our operating segments, and therefore we report stock-based compensation expenses separately. The following table reconciles our operating income by geographic region to our consolidated operating income:

INTEREST EXPENSE
 
Interest expense decreased by $9.2 million to $17.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $26.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, primarily due to lower interest rates and average borrowings on our credit facilities and a benefit of $3 million related to our net investment hedges (see further discussion in Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

OTHER EXPENSE (INCOME), NET
 
"Other expense (income), net," consists primarily of gains and losses on the investments contained within life insurance policies used to fund our nonqualified deferred compensation plan, interest income, discounts on the sale of accounts receivable and net foreign currency exchange gains and losses on certain financing transactions and the related derivative instruments used to hedge such financing transactions. "Other expense (income), net," increased to $8.9 million of expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $0.7 million of income in the first quarter of the prior year, primarily due to a decline in the fair value of the investments contained within life insurance policies and increased hedging costs. The losses on investments are substantially offset in our payroll costs which are reflected in SG&A as part of operating income.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
 
The following table provides a comparison of our provision for income taxes and our effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019:

23.1%
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2020, as compared to the prior year, is primarily due to higher excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. The decrease in the absolute dollar value of the provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 30, 2020, as compared to the prior year, is primarily due a decrease in taxable earnings.

As a distribution company, our business requires significant investment in working capital, particularly accounts receivable and inventory, partially financed through our accounts payable to vendors. An important driver of our operating cash flows is our cash conversion cycle (also referred to as “net cash days”). Our net cash days are defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable ("DSO") plus days of supply on hand in inventory ("DOS"), less days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable ("DPO"). The following tables present the components of our cash conversion cycle, in days, as of April 30, 2020 and 2019, and January 31, 2020 and 2019:

The net decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $70.9 million is primarily due to the impact of changes in working capital. The increase in cash provided by investing activities of $39.9 million is primarily due to $44.4 million of proceeds from the settlement of our net investment hedges. The decrease in cash used in financing activities of $28.5 million is primarily due to the suspension of our share repurchase program pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement with the affiliates of Apollo Funds.

37


CAPITAL RESOURCES AND DEBT COMPLIANCE

Our debt to total capital ratio was 32% at April 30, 2020. As part of our capital structure and to provide us with significant liquidity, we have a diverse range of financing facilities across our geographic regions with various financial institutions. Also providing us liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances across our regions which are deposited and/or invested with various financial institutions. We are exposed to risk of loss on funds deposited with these financial institutions; however, we monitor our financing and depository financial institution partners regularly for credit quality. Our liquidity is subject to many factors, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on financial markets; however, we believe that our existing sources of liquidity, including our financing facilities, trade credit from vendors, cash resources, as well as cash expected to be provided by operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs and cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

The Company currently has sufficient resources, cash flows and liquidity within the U.S. to fund current and expected future working capital requirements. However, future repatriation of foreign cash will be considered to the extent the funds can be remitted with no material tax consequences. Any future remittances of foreign cash could be subject to additional foreign withholding tax, U.S. state taxes and certain tax impacts relating to foreign currency exchange effects.

The following is a discussion of our various financing facilities:

Senior notes

In January 2017, we issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.70% Senior Notes due February 15, 2022 (the "3.70% Senior Notes") and $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.95% Senior Notes due February 15, 2027 (the "4.95% Senior Notes") (collectively the "2017 Senior Notes"). We pay interest on the 2017 Senior Notes semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The interest rate payable on the 2017 Senior Notes will be subject to adjustment from time to time if the credit rating assigned to such series of notes changes. At no point will the interest rate be reduced below the interest rate payable on the notes on the date of the initial issuance or increase more than 2.00% above the interest rate payable on the notes of the series on the date of their initial issuance. The 2017 Senior Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

We, at our option, may redeem the 3.70% Senior Notes at any time prior to January 15, 2022 and the 4.95% Senior Notes at any time prior to November 15, 2026, in each case in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points for the 3.70% Senior Notes and 40 basis points for the 4.95% Senior Notes, plus the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed up to the date of redemption. We may also redeem the 2017 Senior Notes, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, on or after January 15, 2022 for the 3.70% Senior Notes and November 15, 2026 for the 4.95% Senior Notes, in each case, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Senior Notes to be redeemed.

On March 10, 2020, Tiger Merger Sub Co., an affiliate of certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo, launched an offer to purchase for cash any and all of our outstanding 3.70% Senior Notes and any and all of our outstanding 4.95% Senior Notes and a consent solicitation to amend the indenture and global securities establishing the 3.70% Senior Notes and the 4.95% Senior Notes to (i) eliminate the requirement to make a “change of control” offer in connection with the proposed merger of Tiger Merger Sub Co. into the Company pursuant to the Merger Agreement and (ii) make certain other customary changes for a privately-held company to the “change of control” provisions (the “Proposed Amendments”). Concurrently with, but separate from, the aforementioned offer to purchase and consent solicitation, Tiger Merger Sub Co. launched a consent solicitation for the Proposed Amendments for holders of the 4.95% Senior Notes. On March 24, 2020, Tiger Merger Sub Co. announced that the requisite more than 50% of consents were received to adopt the Proposed Amendments. The aforementioned consent solicitations were conducted by Tiger Merger Sub Co. pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, the offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement, dated March 10, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation”), and the separate consent solicitation statement, dated March 10, 2020 (the “4.95% Consent Solicitation” and, together with the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation, the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements”). On March 24, 2020, we entered into a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Indenture and Global Security for the 3.70% Senior Notes (the “3.70% Supplemental Indenture”) and a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Indenture and Global Security for the 4.95% Senior Notes (the “4.95% Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the 3.70% Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemental Indentures”) effecting the Proposed Amendments.

The Proposed Amendments implemented by the Supplemental Indentures will become operative with respect to the 2017 Senior Notes only at such time as the following conditions are satisfied or otherwise waived, if applicable, by Tiger Merger Sub Co.: (1) the 2017 Senior Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) have been accepted for purchase by Tiger Merger Sub Co. in accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements (and, in the case of the 4.95% Senior Notes, when Tiger Merger Sub Co. provides notice that it will pay the consent fee as part of the 4.95% Consent Solicitation) and (2) the other conditions to the consent solicitations set forth in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements, including the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger, have been satisfied.

Other credit facilities

We have a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, provides for (i) a maturity date of May 15, 2024, (ii) an interest rate on borrowings, facility fees and letter of credit fees based on the Company’s debt rating, (iii) the ability to increase the facility to a maximum of $1.75 billion, subject to certain conditions and (iv) certain subsidiaries of the Company to be designated as borrowers. The applicable borrower will pay interest on advances under the Credit Agreement based on LIBOR (or similar interbank offered rates depending on currency draw) plus a predetermined margin that is based on our debt rating. Our borrowings under the Credit Agreement vary within the period primarily based on changes in our working capital. There were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.

On August 2, 2019, we entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “2019 Term Loan Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, (i) provides for a $300 million term loan credit facility with a maturity date of August 2, 2021, (ii) provides for an interest rate on the outstanding principal amount of the loan that is based on LIBOR plus a predetermined margin, and (iii) may be increased up to a total of $500 million, subject to certain conditions. We had $300 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Credit Agreement at both April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.

We also have an agreement with a syndicate of banks (the "Receivables Securitization Program") that allows us to transfer an undivided interest in a designated pool of U.S. accounts receivable, on an ongoing basis, to provide collateral for borrowings up to a maximum of $1.0 billion. The scheduled termination date of the agreement is April 16, 2021. Under this program, we transfer certain U.S. trade receivables into a wholly-owned bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. Such receivables, which are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, totaled approximately $1.6 billion at both April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020. As collections reduce accounts receivable balances included in the collateral pool, we may transfer interests in new receivables to bring the amount available to be borrowed up to the maximum. We pay interest on advances under the Receivables Securitization Program at designated commercial paper or LIBOR-based rates plus an agreed-upon margin. Our borrowings under the Receivables Securitization Agreement vary within the period primarily based on changes in our working capital. There were no amounts outstanding under the Receivables Securitization Program at April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020.

In addition to the facilities described above, we have various other committed and uncommitted lines of credit, short-term loans and overdraft facilities totaling approximately $458.2 million at April 30, 2020 to support our operations. Most of these facilities are provided on an unsecured, short-term basis and are reviewed periodically for renewal, which may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our borrowings under these facilities vary within the period primarily based on changes in our working capital. There was $104.6 million outstanding on these facilities at April 30, 2020, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.17%, and there was $108.4 million outstanding at January 31, 2020, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.79%.

At April 30, 2020, we had also issued standby letters of credit of $39.6 million. These letters of credit typically act as a guarantee of payment to certain third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions. The issuance of certain of these letters of credit reduces the Company's borrowing availability under certain of the above-mentioned credit facilities.

Certain of our credit facilities contain limitations on the amounts of annual dividends and repurchases of common stock and require compliance with other obligations, warranties and covenants. The financial ratio covenants within these credit facilities include a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. At April 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants.

Accounts receivable purchase agreements

We have uncommitted accounts receivable purchase agreements under which certain accounts receivable may be sold, without recourse, to third-party financial institutions. Under these programs, we may sell certain accounts receivable in exchange for cash less a discount, as defined in the agreements. Available capacity under these programs, which we use as a source of working capital funding, is dependent on the level of accounts receivable eligible to be sold into these programs and the financial institutions' willingness to purchase such receivables which may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, certain of these agreements also require that we continue to service, administer and collect the sold accounts receivable. At April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020, we had a total of $569.0 million and $739.2 million, respectively, of accounts receivable sold to and held by financial institutions under these agreements. During the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, discount fees recorded under these facilities were $3.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively. These discount fees are included as a component of "other expense (income), net" in our Consolidated Statement of Income.

Share Repurchase Program
In October 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $200.0 million of our common stock. In February 2019, the Board of Directors approved a $100.0 million increase to the program. In August 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $200.0 million of our common stock, resulting in a total share repurchase authorization of $500.0 million. In conjunction with our share repurchase program, a 10b5-1 plan was executed that instructs the broker selected by the Company to repurchase shares on our behalf. The amount of common stock repurchased in accordance with the 10b5-1 plan on any given trading day is determined by a formula in the plan, which is based on the market price of our common stock. Shares we repurchase are held in treasury for general corporate purposes, including issuances under equity incentive and benefit plans.

39



We repurchased 345,927 shares of our common stock at a cost of $35.7 million during the three months ended April 30, 2019. As of April 30, 2020, we had $222.8 million available for future repurchases of our common stock under the authorized share repurchase program. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement with the affiliates of Apollo Funds, we suspended our share repurchase program as of November 13, 2019.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
Except as presented below, there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020.
Accounts Receivable
We maintain an allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable for future expected credit losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to make required payments. In estimating the required allowance, we take into consideration historical credit losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current conditions as well as changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates or gross domestic product growth. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist using an age-based reserve model. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time period. Tech Data’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of April 30, 2020. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 30, 2020.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with management’s evaluation during our first quarter of fiscal 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
In December 2010, in a non-unanimous decision, a Brazilian appellate court overturned a 2003 trial court which had previously ruled in favor of our Brazilian subsidiary related to the imposition of certain taxes on payments abroad related to the licensing of commercial software products, commonly referred to as “CIDE tax.” We estimate the total exposure related to the CIDE tax, including interest, was approximately $14.3 million at April 30, 2020. The Brazilian subsidiary has appealed the unfavorable ruling to the Supreme Court and Superior Court, Brazil's two highest appellate courts. Based on the legal opinion of outside counsel, we believe that the chances of success on appeal of this matter are favorable and the Brazilian subsidiary intends to vigorously defend its position that the CIDE tax is not due. However, due to the lack of predictability of the Brazilian court system, we have concluded that it is reasonably possible that the Brazilian subsidiary may incur a loss up to the total exposure described above. We believe the resolution of this litigation will not be material to the Company’s consolidated net assets or liquidity. 
The French Autorité de la Concurrence (“Competition Authority”) began in 2013 an investigation into the French market for certain products of Apple, Inc., for which we are a distributor. In March 2020, the Competition Authority imposed fines on us, on another distributor, and on Apple, finding that we entered into an anticompetitive agreement with Apple regarding volume allocations of Apple products. The fine imposed on us was €76 million. We have vigorously contested the arguments of the Competition Authority, and we intend to appeal its determination to the French courts, seeking to set aside or reduce the fine. We believe we have strong arguments on appeal, but we are unable to predict the outcome, among other reasons because of the novelty of the case and the unprecedented size of the fines imposed for this kind of practice, or how long it will take to achieve a final resolution. Under French law, however, the pendency of our appeal does not suspend the obligation to pay the fine, and we expect that we will be required to pay the full fine assessed by the Competition Authority before our appeal is finally determined. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the amount of loss in these proceedings and therefore have not accrued for any loss.
We are subject to various other legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Our management does not expect that the outcome in any of these other legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020, which could materially affect our business, financial position and results of operations. Risk factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements include but are not limited to those discussed or identified in this document, in our public filings with the SEC, and those incorporated by reference in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020. Except as presented below, there have been no material changes to those risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively impact our business operations and financial results.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the global economy, disrupting the financial markets and creating increasing volatility, and impacting customer demand including changes in the mix of demand for products within our portfolio. COVID-19 has also impeded global supply chains, including our own. Our suppliers are experiencing delays in the production and export of their products and failure to obtain adequate product supplies from our vendors may result in a loss of revenue and profitability. We have also experienced impacts to our freight and logistic operations, including increased costs. Additionally, we may need to close logistics centers for a period of time as a result of government mandates or self-imposed health and safety initiatives. While we have initiated short-term measures to address delays in our supply chain, including advance purchases, such measures may not be sufficient to fully mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and such steps may negatively impact our financial condition.

The potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on financial and credit markets, including impacts on the ability of our customers to obtain access to sources of liquidity, heightens the risk of customer bankruptcies and delays in payment which could result in increased credit losses. Future deterioration in the credit markets could result in reduced availability of credit insurance to cover customer accounts. This, in turn, may result in our reducing the credit lines we provide to customers, thereby having a negative impact on our net sales, gross profits and net income.

Our business requires substantial capital to operate. We have historically relied upon cash generated from operations, bank credit lines, trade credit from vendors and accounts receivable purchase agreements to satisfy our capital needs and to finance growth. Significant changes in vendor payment terms or payment arrangements due to the COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our liquidity and financial condition. We have various committed and uncommitted lines of credit, short-term loans and overdraft facilities which are provided on an unsecured, short-term basis and are reviewed periodically for renewal, which may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, financial institutions' willingness to purchase receivables under accounts receivable purchase agreements may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

43



We cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will have on our operations and financial condition, including due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity and duration of the pandemic, the effect on our customers and customer demand and the length of the restrictions and closures imposed by various governments; however, we expect to see a negative impact to our revenue and earnings from the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter, which may continue into the third quarter or beyond.
