NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly Avnet, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries’ (collectively, the “Company” or “Avnet”) financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019.

Certain reclassifications have been made in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” and its related amendments (collectively “ASC 842”) on June 30, 2019 (the first day of fiscal 2020) using the modified transition approach without restating the comparative period consolidated financial statements. The standard requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a short-term and long-term lease liability for all leases.

The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations or retained earnings. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance that allowed, among other things, the historical lease classification to be carried forward without reassessment and the hindsight practical expedient. The Company elected to not separate lease and non-lease components for its real estate leases. Refer to Note 5 for additional disclosures related to leases.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” and its related amendments (collectively “ASC 815”), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the qualification and application of hedge accounting compared to historical GAAP. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASC 815 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The ASU will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and early adoption is permitted. Depending on the amendment, adoption may be applied on the retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2019-12.

Table of Contents

AVNET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU No. 2018-15"). ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop internal-use software. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2018-15.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (“ASU No. 2018-14”). The new guidance modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans, including removing certain previous disclosure requirements, adding certain new disclosure requirements, and clarifying certain other disclosure requirements. The ASU will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The Company’s planned adoption of ASU No. 2018-14 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU No. 2016-13") and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, and ASU No. 2019-11 (collectively, Topic 326). Topic 326 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. Topic 326 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.

2. Acquisitions and discontinued operations

Acquisitions

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company completed two acquisitions. The impact of these acquisitions was not material to the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or statements of operations and as a result, the Company has not disclosed the preliminary allocation of purchase price or the pro-forma impact of the acquisition.

Discontinued Operations

In February 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Technology Solutions business (“TS business”) to Tech Data Corporation (the “Buyer”). The TS business and the financial impacts of the divestiture are classified as discontinued operations in all periods presented. In August 2018, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the Buyer resulting in a final sales price increase of $120.0 million and a final geographic allocation of the TS business sales price for tax reporting purposes. This incremental consideration received from the sale of the TS business as well as cash settlements from the resolution of indemnification claims and other cash reimbursements have been classified as cash flows from discontinued operations investing activities. Income tax payments related to the gain on sale of the TS business have been classified as cash flows from discontinued operations operating activities.

Under the contractual terms of the sale of the TS business, the Company has indemnified the Buyer for certain liabilities including tax related matters, which may result in future indemnification expenses and indemnification payments to the Buyer depending upon the outcome of those matters subject to indemnification.

(1)Includes accumulated impairment of $1,045,110 from fiscal 2009, $181,440 from fiscal 2018 and $137,396 from fiscal 2019

The Company evaluates each quarter if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units is less than their carrying value, which would require the Company to perform an interim goodwill impairment test. Indicators the Company evaluates to determine whether an interim goodwill impairment test is necessary include, but are not limited to, (i) a sustained decrease in share price or market capitalization as of any fiscal quarter end, (ii) changes in macroeconomic or industry environments, (iii) the results of and the amount of time passed since the last goodwill impairment test and (iv) the long-term expected financial performance of its reporting units.

Intangible Assets

The following table presents the Company’s acquired intangible assets at December 28, 2019, and June 29, 2019, respectively.

Short-term debt					$	492,223	$	300,538

Bank credit facilities and other consists primarily of various committed and uncommitted lines of credit and other forms of bank debt with financial institutions utilized primarily to support the working capital requirements of the Company including its foreign operations.

The Company has a trade accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Program”) in the United States with a group of financial institutions to allow the Company to transfer, on an ongoing revolving basis, an undivided interest in a designated pool of trade accounts receivable, to provide security or collateral for borrowings up to a maximum of $500 million. The Securitization Program does not qualify for off balance sheet accounting treatment and any borrowings under the Securitization Program are recorded as debt in the consolidated balance sheets. Under the Securitization Program, the Company legally sells and isolates certain U.S. trade accounts receivable into a wholly owned and consolidated bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. Such receivables, which are recorded within “Receivables” in the consolidated balance sheets, totaled $740.8 million and $857.3 million at December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019, respectively. The Securitization Program contains certain covenants relating to the quality of the receivables sold. The Securitization Program also requires the Company to maintain certain minimum interest coverage and leverage ratios, which the Company was in compliance with as of December 28, 2019, and June 29, 2019. The Securitization Program expires in August 2020 and as a result the Company has classified outstanding balances as short-term debt as of December 28, 2019. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a one-month LIBOR rate plus a spread of 0.75%. The facility fee on the unused balance of the facility is up to 0.35%.

The Company has a five-year $1.25 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, consisting of revolving credit facilities and the issuance of up to $200.0 million of letters of credit and up to $300.0 million of loans in certain approved currencies, which expires in June 2023. Subject to certain conditions, the Credit Facility may be increased up to $1.50 billion. Under the Credit Facility, the Company may select from various interest rate options, currencies and maturities. The Credit Facility contains certain covenants including various limitations on debt incurrence, share repurchases, dividends, investments and capital expenditures. The Credit Facility also includes financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain minimum interest coverage and leverage ratios, which the Company was in compliance with as of December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019. As of December 28, 2019, and June 29, 2019, there were $3.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively, in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility.

As of December 28, 2019, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $1.69 billion and $1.76 billion, respectively. At June 29, 2019, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $1.72 billion and $1.78 billion, respectively. Fair value for the public notes was estimated based upon quoted market prices and for other forms of debt fair value approximates carrying value due to the market based variable nature of the interest rates on those debt facilities.

5. Leases

Substantially all the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases and are predominately related to real property for distribution centers, office space and integration facilities with a lease term of up to 18 years. The Company’s equipment leases are primarily for automobiles and equipment and are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration. Lease right-of-use assets (“operating lease assets”) and associated liabilities (“operating lease liabilities”) are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Certain lease agreements may include one or more options to extend or terminate a lease. Lease terms are inclusive of these options if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

The Company’s leases generally do not provide a readily determinable implicit borrowing rate, as such, the discount rate used to calculate present value is based upon an estimate of the Company’s secured borrowing rate. The estimated secured borrowing rates used at the date of adoption for each lease varies in accordance with the lease term and the currency of the lease payments. Lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included as a component of “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of operations. Lease payments are primarily fixed; however, certain lease agreements contain variable payments, which are expensed as incurred and not included in the measurement of operating lease assets and liabilities.

The components of lease cost related to the Company’s operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

6. Derivative financial instruments

Many of the Company’s subsidiaries purchase and sell products in currencies other than their functional currencies. This subjects the Company to the risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company reduces this risk by utilizing natural hedging (e.g., offsetting receivables and payables in the same foreign currency) as well as by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments, primarily forward foreign exchange contracts typically with maturities of less than 60 days (“economic hedges”), but no longer than one year. The Company continues to have exposure to foreign currency risks to the extent they are not economically hedged. The Company adjusts any economic hedges to fair value through the consolidated statements of operations primarily within “Other (expense) income, net.” The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts, which are based upon Level 2 criteria under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy, are classified in the captions “Prepaid and other current assets” or “Accrued expenses and other,” as applicable, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019. The Company’s master netting and other similar arrangements with various financial institutions related to derivative financial instruments allow for the right of offset. The Company’s policy is to present derivative financial instruments with the same counterparty as either a net asset or liability when the right of offset exists.

The Company generally does not hedge its investments in its foreign operations. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and monitors the financial stability and credit standing of its counterparties.

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 from suppliers. The Company’s foreign operations transactions are denominated primarily in the following currencies: U.S. Dollar, Euro, British Pound, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan, Taiwan Dollar, Canadian Dollar and Mexican Peso. The Company also, to a lesser extent, has foreign operations transactions in other EMEA and Asia foreign currencies.

The fair values of forward foreign currency exchange contracts not receiving hedge accounting treatment recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are as follows:


	December 28,		June 29,
	2019		2019
	(Thousands)
Prepaid and other current assets	$	6,276	$	5,511

Under the Company’s economic hedging policies, gains and losses on the derivative financial instruments are classified within the same line item in the consolidated statements of operations as the remeasurement of the underlying assets or liabilities being economically hedged.

7. Commitments and contingencies

From time to time, the Company may become a party to, or be otherwise involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of conducting its business. While litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, management does not anticipate that any such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

The Company is also currently subject to various pending and potential legal matters and investigations relating to compliance with governmental laws and regulations, including import/export and environmental matters. For certain of these matters it is not possible to determine the ultimate outcome, and the Company cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential exposure or the range of possible loss for such matters due primarily to being in the early stages of the related proceedings and investigations. The Company currently believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity but could possibly be material to its results of operations in any one reporting period.

As of December 28, 2019, and June 29, 2019, the Company had aggregate estimated liabilities of $14.7 million classified within accrued expenses and other for such compliance-related matters that were reasonably estimable as of such dates.

8. Income taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate on its income from continuing operations before taxes was 56.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) a valuation allowance against interest deduction deferred tax assets, partially offset by (ii) the mix of income in lower tax jurisdictions.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before income taxes from continuing operations of 43.3% was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) an adjustment to the one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax liability recorded under the requirements of recent tax law and regulation changes in the United States (the “Act”) and (ii) increases in unrecognized tax benefits, partially offset by (iii) the mix of income in lower tax jurisdictions, and (iv) the release of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that were deemed to be realizable.

For the first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before income taxes from continuing operations was a benefit of 1.8%. The effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was favorably impacted primarily by (i) the release of unrecognized tax benefit reserves net of settlements and (ii) the mix of income in lower tax jurisdictions, partially offset by (iii) a valuation allowance against interest deduction deferred tax assets.

Table of Contents

AVNET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

During the first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before income taxes from continuing operations of 33.1% was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) an adjustment to the one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax liability recorded under the requirements of the Act and (ii) increases in unrecognized tax benefits, partially offset by (iii) an adjustment to the provisional deferred tax impacts of the Act, (iv) the mix of income in lower tax jurisdictions, and (v) the release of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that were deemed to be realizable.

The Company’s effective tax rates in fiscal years 2019 and 2020 are based on the Company’s interpretation of tax regulations under the Act. The Company has made a policy election to account for any impacts of the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax as a period expense. The Company’s effective tax rate may change in future periods due to changes in U.S. tax regulations and the issuance of additional guidance related to the Act.

9. Pension plan

The Company has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all current or former U.S. employees (the “Plan”). Components of net periodic pension cost for the Plan were as follows:

10. Shareholders’ equity

Share repurchase program

In August 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors amended the Company’s existing share repurchase program, increasing the cumulative total of authorized share repurchases to $2.95 billion of common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors such as share price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and prevailing market conditions. During the second quarter and six months ended December 28, 2019, the Company repurchased 2.1 million and 4.8 million shares, respectively, under this program for a total cost of $87.6 million and $199.7 million, respectively.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

For a description of the Company’s critical accounting policies and an understanding of the significant factors that influenced the Company’s performance during the quarter ended December 28, 2019, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, appearing in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019.

There are references to the impact of foreign currency translation in the discussion of the Company’s results of operations. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens and the weaker exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is an increase in U.S. Dollars of reported results. In the discussion that follows, results excluding this impact, primarily for subsidiaries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia/Pacific (“Asia”), are referred to as “constant currency.”

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, including:

●

Sales adjusted for certain items that impact the year-over-year analysis, which includes the impact of certain acquisitions by adjusting Avnet’s prior periods to include the sales of acquired businesses, as if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Sales taking into account these adjustments are referred to as “organic sales.”

●

Operating income excluding (i) restructuring, integration and other expenses (see Restructuring, Integration and Other Expenses in this MD&A) and (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and other. Operating income excluding such amounts is referred to as “adjusted operating income.”

The reconciliation of operating income to adjusted operating income is presented in the following table:


	Second Quarters Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 28,		December 29,		December 28,		December 29,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
	(Thousands)
Operating income	$	46,475	$	96,050	$	109,212	$	242,866
Restructuring, integration and other expenses		14,265		62,260		38,863		77,048
Amortization of acquired intangible assets and other		21,454		20,513		41,532		41,440
Adjusted operating income	$	82,194	$	178,823	$	189,607	$	361,354

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to readers to better assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing results with prior periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business both including and excluding these adjustments to GAAP results. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in many cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes. However, any analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP.

OVERVIEW

Organization

Avnet, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries’ (collectively, the “Company” or “Avnet”), is a global technology solutions company with an extensive ecosystem delivering design, product, marketing and supply chain expertise for customers at every stage of the product lifecycle. Avnet transforms ideas into intelligent solutions, reducing the time, cost and complexities of bringing products to market around the world. Founded in 1921 and incorporated in New York in 1955, the Company works with over 1,400 technology suppliers to serve 2.1 million customers in more than 140 countries.

Avnet has two primary operating groups — Electronic Components (“EC”) and Farnell (“Farnell”). Both operating groups have operations in each of the three major economic regions of the world: (i) the Americas, (ii) EMEA and (iii) Asia. A summary of each operating group is provided in Note 13, “Segment information” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Results of Operations

Executive Summary

Sales of $4.53 billion were down 10.2% year over year and 9.4% in constant currency as compared to prior fiscal year second quarter sales of $5.05 billion. Both operating groups in all three regions contributed to the year-over-year decline in sales as the global industry-wide slowdown resulted in weaker year over year demand.

Gross profit margin of 11.6% decreased 89 basis points compared to 12.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to gross profit margin declines in both operating groups.

Operating income of $46.5 million decreased $49.6 million or 51.6% as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Operating income margin was 1.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 as compared with a 1.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Both periods included amortization and restructuring, integration and other expenses. Excluding these expenses from both periods, adjusted operating income margin was 1.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 as compared to 3.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, a decline of 173 basis points. The decrease in adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin is primarily due to the decrease in sales and gross profit margin, partially offset by reductions in operating expenses from the Company’s restructuring and integration efforts.

___________

(1)

Sales from acquisitions in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were not material.

(2)

Sales from the acquisition in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was not material.

Sales of $4.53 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were down $514.2 million, or 10.2%, from the prior year second quarter sales of $5.05 billion. Sales in constant currency decreased 9.4% over the prior year second quarter with all three regions of both operating groups contributing to the decline. These decreases are primarily due to the current industry-wide economic downturn, which began in the second half of fiscal 2019.

EC sales of $4.20 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased $477.1 million or 10.2% from the prior year second quarter sales of $4.68 billion. EC sales in constant currency declined 9.5% year over year. Farnell sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $331.2 million, a decrease of $37.1 million or 10.1% from the prior year second quarter sales of $368.3 million. Farnell sales in constant currency declined 9.1% year over year.

Table of Contents

On a regional basis, sales declined 8.8% in the Americas, 12.1% in EMEA in constant currency and 7.7% in Asia in constant currency. All the regional declines are primarily due to the industry-wide economic downturn impacting the demand for electronic components.

Sales for the first six months of fiscal 2020 were $9.16 billion, a decline $974.0 million as compared to sales of $10.14 billion for the first six months of fiscal 2019. These decreases are primarily due to the current industry-wide economic downturn, which began in the second half of fiscal 2019.

As a result of the notification the Company received from Texas Instruments (“TI”) in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 related to the termination of the Company’s distribution agreement, the Company may experience lower sales and gross profit in the future if the impact of the termination is not offset by sales growth, gross margin improvements or operating cost reductions from strategic initiatives designed to mitigate such impacts. Sales from TI products represented approximately 10% of total sales in fiscal 2019.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margins

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $525.6 million, a decrease of $104.4 million, or 16.6%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2019 gross profit of $630.0 million driven primarily by the decline in sales. Gross profit margin decreased to 11.6% or 89 basis points from the second quarter of fiscal 2019 gross profit margin of 12.5% driven by declines in gross profit margin in both operating groups. The declines in gross profit margin in both operating groups are primarily due to a combination of product and customer mix, geographical market mix and overall declines in gross profit margin due to current market conditions.

Gross profit and gross margins were $1.07 billion and 11.7%, respectively, for the first six months of fiscal 2020 as compared with $1.27 billion and 12.5%, respectively, for the first six months of fiscal 2019.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) were $464.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a decrease of $6.9 million, or 1.5%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The year-over-year decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily due to a reduction of expenses resulting from management’s restructuring programs, the impact of changes in foreign currency translation rates year over year and from the decline in sales, partially offset by increases in SG&A expenses to fund strategic investments and initiatives.

Metrics that management monitors with respect to its operating expenses are SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales and as a percentage of gross profit. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales were 10.3% and as a percentage of gross profit were 88.4%, as compared with 9.3% and 74.9%, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of both sales and gross profit is primarily the result of the decrease in sales and gross profit margin, partially offset by the decline in SG&A expenses.

SG&A expenses for the first six months of fiscal 2020 were $921.4 million, or 10.1% of sales, as compared with $946.9 million, or 9.3% of sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2019. SG&A expenses were 86.2% of gross profit in the first six months of 2020 as compared with 74.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2019.

Restructuring, Integration and Other Expenses

As a result of management’s focus on improving operating efficiencies and further integrating the acquisition of Farnell, the Company has incurred certain restructuring costs. These costs also related to the continued transformation of the Company’s information technology, distribution center footprint and business operations. In addition, the Company incurred integration, accelerated depreciation and other costs. Integration costs are primarily related to the integration of acquired businesses including Farnell, the integration of certain regional and global businesses, and incremental costs incurred as part of the consolidation, relocation, sale and closure of distribution centers and office facilities. Accelerated depreciation relates to the incremental depreciation expense incurred related to the shortening of the estimated useful life

for certain information technology assets. Other costs consist primarily of any other miscellaneous costs that relate to restructuring, integration and other expenses including acquisition related costs.

The Company recorded restructuring, integration and other expenses of $14.3 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company recorded $9.5 million of restructuring costs in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, which are expected to provide approximately $15.0 million in annual operating expense savings once such restructuring actions are completed. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company also incurred integration costs of $2.8 million, accelerated depreciation expense of $2.7 million, other costs of $0.5 million and a reversal of $1.2 million for changes in estimates for costs associated with prior year restructuring actions. The after-tax impact of restructuring, integration and other expenses were $10.9 million and $0.11 per share on a diluted basis.

During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $27.8 million, integration costs of $4.5 million, accelerated depreciation of $5.4 million, other costs of $2.6 million and reversals of $1.4 million for changes in estimates for costs associated with prior year restructuring actions. The after tax impact of restructuring, integration and other expenses for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $29.2 million and $0.29 per share on a diluted basis.

Comparatively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, restructuring, integration and other expenses were $62.3 million. The after-tax impact of restructuring, integration, and other expenses was $46.6 million and $0.42 per share on a diluted basis.

In the first six months of fiscal 2019, restructuring, integration and other expenses were $77.0 million. The after tax impact of restructuring, integration and other expenses for the first six months of fiscal 2019 was $58.1 million and $0.51 per share on a diluted basis.

See Note 14 “Restructuring expenses” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Operating Income

Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $46.5 million, a decrease of $49.6 million, or 51.6%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2019 operating income of $96.1 million. The year over year decrease in operating income was primarily driven by the decline in sales and gross profit margin partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $82.2 million, a decrease of $96.6 million, or 54.0%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The year over year decrease in adjusted operating income was primarily driven by the decline in sales and gross profit margin, partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses.

EC operating income margin decreased 117 basis points year over year to 2.2% and Farnell operating income margin decreased 473 basis points year over year to 6.0%. These declines were primarily driven by the decline in sales and gross profit margin, partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses.

Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $109.2 million, or 1.2% of consolidated sales, as compared with operating income of $242.9 million, or 2.4% of consolidated sales in the first six months of fiscal 2019. Adjusted operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $189.6 million, a decrease of $171.7 million, or 47.5%, from the first six months of fiscal 2019. The year over year decrease in adjusted operating income was primarily driven by the decline in sales and gross profit margin, partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses.

Interest and Other Financing Expenses, Net and Other (Expense) Income, Net

Interest and other financing expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $33.9 million, an increase of $0.2 million or 0.6%, as compared with interest and other financing expenses of $33.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Interest and other financing expenses in the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $67.5 million, an increase of $3.7 million or 5.8%, as compared with interest and other financing expenses of $63.8 million in the first six months of fiscal

Table of Contents

2019. The increase in interest and other financing expenses in the first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2019 was primarily related to increased expenses in foreign regions to finance working capital needs.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company had $0.5 million of other expense as compared with $2.6 million of other income in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company had $4.4 million of other income as compared with $0.7 million of other income in the first six months of fiscal 2019. The year over year differences in other income was primarily due to differences in foreign currency exchange rates between fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019.

Income Tax Expense

For the first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before income taxes from continuing operations of 33.1% was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) an adjustment to the one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax liability recorded under the requirements of the Act and (ii) increases in unrecognized tax benefits, partially offset by (iii) an adjustment to the provisional deferred tax impacts of the Act, (iv) the mix of income in lower tax jurisdictions, and (v) the release of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that were deemed to be realizable.

See Note 8 “Income taxes” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Loss from Discontinued Operations

Loss from discontinued operations was $1.5 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020.

Loss from discontinued operations was $0.4 million and $0.2 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019.

Net Income

As a result of the factors described in the preceding sections of this MD&A, the Company’s net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $3.7 million, or $0.04 per share on a diluted basis, as compared with $36.4 million, or $0.33 per share on a diluted basis, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

As a result of the factors described in the preceding sections of this MD&A, the Company’s net income for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $45.4 million, or $0.44 per share on a diluted basis, as compared with $120.1 million, or $1.05 per share on a diluted basis, in the first six months of fiscal 2019.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company generated $344.2 million of cash flow from operations for continuing operations compared to $12.8 million of cash used in the first six months of fiscal 2019. These operating cash flows were comprised of: (i) cash flow generated from net income from continuing operations, adjusted for the impact of non-cash and other items, which includes depreciation and amortization expenses, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of operating lease assets and other non-cash items (including provisions for doubtful accounts and net periodic pension costs) and (ii) cash flows used for, or generated from, working capital and other, excluding cash and cash equivalents. Cash generated from working capital and other was $155.2 million during the first six months of fiscal 2020, including decreases in accounts receivable of $185.6 million and inventories of $94.2 million, offset by decreases in accounts payable of $52.7 million and accrued expenses and other of $71.9 million. Comparatively, cash used for working capital and other was $361.8 million during the first six months of fiscal 2019, including an increase in inventories of $209.6 million and decreases in accounts payable of $205.3 million and accrued expenses and other of $140.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $193.5 million.

During the first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company received net proceeds of $366.0 million under the Securitization Program and repaid $59.4 million from borrowings of various bank credit facilities. During the first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company paid dividends on common stock of $44.7 million and repurchased $335.4 million of common stock. Additionally, included in other, net is approximately $18.2 million of cash received from the exercises of stock options.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

During the first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company used $51.5 million of cash for acquisitions, which is net of the cash acquired, compared to $62.5 million of cash for acquisitions, which is net of cash acquired in the first six months of fiscal 2019. In addition, the Company paid $13.1 million for other investing activities.

During the first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company received $123.5 million of cash from investing activities – discontinued operations from the sale of the TS business.

Contractual Obligations

For a detailed description of the Company’s long-term debt and lease commitments for the next five years and thereafter, see Long-Term Contractual Obligations appearing in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019. With the exception of the Company’s debt transactions discussed herein, there are no material changes to this information outside of normal borrowings and repayments of long-term debt and operating lease payments. The Company does not currently have any material non-cancellable commitments for capital expenditures or inventory purchases.

Financing Transactions

See Note 4, “Debt” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on financing transactions including the Credit Facility, the Securitization Program, and other outstanding debt as of December 28, 2019. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and the Securitization Program as of December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019.

The Company has various lines of credit, financing arrangements and other forms of bank debt in the U.S. and various foreign locations to fund the short-term working capital, foreign exchange, overdraft and letter of credit needs of its wholly owned subsidiaries. Outstanding borrowings under such forms of debt at the end of second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $2.2 million.

As an alternative form of financing outside of the United States, the Company sells certain of its trade accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis to third-party financial institutions pursuant to factoring agreements. The Company accounts for these transactions as sales of receivables and presents cash proceeds as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Factoring fees for the sales of trade accounts receivable are recorded within “Interest and other financing expenses, net” and were not material.

Liquidity

The Company held cash and cash equivalents of $488.8 million as of December 28, 2019, of which $423.3 million was held outside the United States. As of June 29, 2019, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $546.1 million, of which $476.6 million was held outside of the United States.

As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company had a combined total borrowing capacity of $1.75 billion under the Credit Facility and the Securitization Program. There were no borrowings outstanding and $3.9 million in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility and $191.9 million in borrowings outstanding under the Securitization Program, resulting in approximately $1.52 billion of total availability as of December 28, 2019. Availability under the Securitization Program is subject to the Company having sufficient eligible trade accounts receivable in the Americas to support desired borrowings. The Company expects to renew or replace the Securitization Program on similar terms, subject to market conditions, before its maturity in August 2020. The Company expects to redeem the $300.0 million of Notes due June 2020 either through cash on hand or from available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility and Securitization Program. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020, the Company had an average daily balance outstanding of approximately $41.2 million and $45.9 million, respectively, under the Credit Facility and approximately $408.6 million and $448.5 million, respectively, under the Securitization Program. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019, the Company had an average daily balance outstanding of approximately $184.0 million and $91.5 million, respectively, under the Credit Facility and approximately $256.0 million and $161.0 million, respectively, under the Securitization Program.

During periods of weakening demand in the electronic components industry, the Company typically generates cash from operating activities. Conversely, the Company is more likely to use operating cash flows for working capital requirements during periods of higher growth. The Company generated $948.1 million in cash flows from operating activities over the trailing four fiscal quarters ended December 28, 2019 from continuing operations.

Table of Contents

Liquidity is subject to many factors, such as normal business operations as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, and regulatory factors that are beyond the Company’s control. To the extent the cash balances held in foreign locations cannot be remitted back to the U.S. in a tax efficient manner, those cash balances are generally used for ongoing working capital, capital expenditure needs and to support acquisitions. In addition, local government regulations may restrict the Company’s ability to move funds among various locations under certain circumstances. Management does not believe such restrictions would limit the Company’s ability to pursue its intended business strategy. Management believes that Avnet’s available borrowing capacity including capacity for the non-recourse sale of trade accounts receivable and the Company’s expected ability to generate operating cash flows in the future will be sufficient to meet its future liquidity needs. The Company may also issue debt or equity securities in the future and management believes the Company will have adequate access to the capital markets, if needed.

Historically the Company has made, and expects to continue to make, strategic investments through acquisition activity to the extent the investments strengthen Avnet’s competitive position, further its business strategies and meet management’s financial return thresholds. As the Company implements operating cost savings restructuring plans, responds to current business environment challenges and pursues ways to become more efficient and cost effective, the Company also expects to use cash for restructuring, integration and other expenses.

As of December 28, 2019, the Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $505.7 million of shares of the Company’s common stock through a $2.95 billion share repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors. The Company may repurchase stock from time to time at the discretion of management, subject to strategic considerations, market conditions and other factors. The Company may terminate or limit the share repurchase program at any time without prior notice. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors such as share price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and prevailing market conditions. Additionally, the Company currently expects to pay quarterly cash dividends on shares of its common stock, subject to approval of the Board of Directors. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.21 per share, which resulted in $21.0 million of dividend payments during the quarter.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1, “Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company seeks to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates by entering into financial arrangements that are intended to provide an economic hedge against all or a portion of the risks associated with such volatility. The Company continues to have exposure to such risks to the extent they are not economically hedged.

See Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019, for further discussion of market risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Avnet’s exposure to such risks has not changed materially since June 29, 2019, as the Company continues to economically hedge the majority of its foreign currency exchange exposures. Thus, any increase or decrease in fair value of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts is generally offset by an opposite effect on the related economically hedged position. For interest rate risk, the Company continues to maintain a combination of fixed and variable rate debt to mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates.

See Liquidity and Capital Resources — Financing Transactions appearing in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of the Company’s financing transactions and capital structure. As of December 28, 2019, 89% of the Company’s debt bears interest at a fixed rate and 11% of the Company’s debt bears interest at variable rates. Therefore, a hypothetical 1.0% (100 basis points) increase in interest rates would result in a $0.5 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the reporting period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective such that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, there were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) 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

Pursuant to SEC regulations, including but not limited to Item 103 of Regulation S-K, the Company regularly assesses the status of and developments in pending environmental and other compliance related legal proceedings to determine whether any such proceedings should be identified specifically in this discussion of legal proceedings, and has concluded that no particular pending legal proceeding requires public disclosure. Based on the information known to date, management believes that the Company has appropriately accrued in its consolidated financial statements for its share of the estimable costs of environmental and other compliance related matters.

The Company is also currently subject to various pending and potential legal matters and investigations relating to compliance with governmental laws and regulations, including import/export and environmental matters. The Company currently believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity but could possibly be material to its results of operations in any one reporting period.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

The discussion of the Company’s business and operations should be read together with the risk factors contained in Item 1A of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019, which describe various risks and uncertainties to which the Company is or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. As of December 28, 2019, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019.

Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements (Policies)	6 Months Ended

Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements
Basis of presentation	In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly Avnet, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries’ (collectively, the “Company” or “Avnet”) financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019. Certain reclassifications have been made in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.
New accounting pronouncements	Recently adopted accounting pronouncements The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” and its related amendments (collectively “ASC 842”) on June 30, 2019 (the first day of fiscal 2020) using the modified transition approach without restating the comparative period consolidated financial statements. The standard requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a short-term and long-term lease liability for all leases. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations or retained earnings. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance that allowed, among other things, the historical lease classification to be carried forward without reassessment and the hindsight practical expedient. The Company elected to not separate lease and non-lease components for its real estate leases. Refer to Note 5 for additional disclosures related to leases. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” and its related amendments (collectively “ASC 815”), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the qualification and application of hedge accounting compared to historical GAAP. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASC 815 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently issued accounting pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The ASU will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and early adoption is permitted. Depending on the amendment, adoption may be applied on the retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2019-12. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU No. 2018-15"). ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop internal-use software. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2018-15. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (“ASU No. 2018-14”). The new guidance modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans, including removing certain previous disclosure requirements, adding certain new disclosure requirements, and clarifying certain other disclosure requirements. The ASU will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The Company’s planned adoption of ASU No. 2018-14 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU No. 2016-13") and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, and ASU No. 2019-11 (collectively, Topic 326). Topic 326 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. Topic 326 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.
