Supply Chain Finance Program

Note 3. Supply Chain Finance Program

The Company has an unsecured agreement with a third-party financial institution to facilitate a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program. The SCF program allows qualifying suppliers to sell their receivables due from the Company, on an invoice level at the selection of the supplier, to the financial institution and negotiate their outstanding receivable arrangements and associated fees directly with the financial institution. The Company is not party to the agreements between the supplier and the financial institution. The supplier invoices that have been confirmed as valid under the program require payment in full by the Company within 120 days of the invoice date.

All outstanding amounts related to suppliers participating in the SCF program are confirmed with the third-party financial institution and are recorded in Accounts payable in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s outstanding obligation under the SCF program as of July 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023 was $10.9 million and $13.1 million, respectively.
