Summary of significant accounting policies
Summary of significant accounting policies	1. Summary of significant accounting policies Basis of presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Avnet, Inc. and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Avnet”). All intercompany and intracompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Reclassifications — Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to the current period presentation. Fiscal year — The Company operates on a “52/53 week” fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday closest to June 30th. Fiscal 2023 and 2022 contain 52 weeks compared to 53 weeks in fiscal 2021. Unless otherwise noted, all references to “fiscal” or “year” shall mean the Company’s fiscal year. Management estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, reported amounts of sales and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Cash and cash equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less including money market funds to be cash equivalents. Receivables – Receivables, predominately comprised of customer trade accounts, are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the receivables’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information about expected credit losses, including information about historical credit losses, past events, current conditions, and other factors which may affect the collectability of receivables. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current receivable specific risk characteristics, such as changes in customer behavior, economic and industry changes, or other relevant factors. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pooled basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Inventories — Inventories, comprised principally of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory cost includes the purchase price of finished goods and any freight cost incurred to receive the inventory into the Company’s distribution centers. The Company regularly reviews the cost of inventory against its estimated net realizable value, considering historical experience and any contractual rights of return, stock rotations, vendor rebates, excess, and obsolescence allowances, or price protections provided by the Company’s suppliers. It records the lower of cost or net realizable value write-down if any inventories have a cost in excess of such inventories’ estimated net realizable value. Depreciation, amortization and useful lives — The Company reports property, plant, and equipment at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the assets, required installation costs, interest capitalized during the construction period, and any expenditure that substantially adds to the value or substantially extends the useful life of an existing asset. Additionally, the Company capitalizes qualified costs related to software obtained or developed for internal use as a component of property, plant, and equipment. Software obtained for internal use has generally been enterprise-level business operations, logistics, and finance software that is customized to meet the Company’s specific operational requirements. The Company begins depreciation and amortization (“depreciation”) for property, plant, and equipment when an asset is both in the location and condition for its intended use. Property, plant, and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives for property, plant, and equipment are typically as follows: buildings (30 years); machinery, fixtures and equipment (2-10 years); information technology hardware and software (2-10 years); and leasehold improvements (over the applicable lease term or economic useful life, if shorter). The Company amortizes intangible assets acquired in business combinations or asset combinations using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the intangible assets from the date of acquisition, which is generally between 5-10 years. Long-lived asset impairment — Long-lived assets, including property, plant, equipment, intangible assets and operating lease assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. For purposes of recognition and measurement of an impairment loss, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (“asset group”). An impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. An impairment is measured as the amount by which an asset group’s carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company considers a long-lived asset to be abandoned when it has ceased use of such abandoned asset and if the Company has no intent to use or repurpose the asset in the future. The Company continually evaluates the carrying value and the remaining economic useful life of long-lived assets and adjusts the carrying value and remaining useful life when appropriate. 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 15 years. The Company’s equipment leases are primarily for automobiles, distribution center equipment and office equipment, which are not material to the consolidated financial statements. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. 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. The Company’s leases generally do not provide an 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, which varies based on 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. Goodwill — Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the estimated fair value assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company does not amortize goodwill, but instead tests goodwill for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter. If necessary, the Company records any impairment resulting from such goodwill impairment testing as a component of operating expenses included within goodwill and intangible asset impairment expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, which is defined as the same, or one level below, an operating segment. The Company will perform an interim impairment test between required annual tests if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit that has goodwill is less than its carrying value. In performing goodwill impairment testing, the Company may first make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more-likely-than-not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more-likely-than-not that a reporting unit’s fair value is not greater than its carrying value, the Company must perform a quantitative impairment test. The Company defines the fair value of a reporting unit as the price that would be received to sell the reporting unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the impairment test date. To determine the fair value of a reporting unit, the Company uses the income methodology of valuation, which includes the discounted cash flow method, and the market methodology of valuation, which considers values of comparable businesses to estimate the fair value of the Company’s reporting units. Significant management judgment is required when estimating the fair value of the Company’s reporting units from a market participant perspective (including forecasting of future operating results and the discount rates used in the discounted cash flow method of valuation) and in the selection of comparable businesses and related market multiples that are used in the market method of valuation. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the reverse is true, then the Company measures a goodwill impairment loss based on such difference. 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. Foreign currency translation — The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in effect at each balance sheet date, with the related translation adjustments reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss). Results of operations are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the reporting period. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Avnet subsidiaries that are party to the transactions are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at each balance sheet date or upon settlement of the transaction. Gains and losses from such remeasurements are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of “Other expense, net.” Income taxes — The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax impact of differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized within income tax expense in the period in which the new tax rate is enacted. Based upon historical and estimated levels of future taxable income and analysis of other key factors, the Company may increase or decrease a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, as deemed necessary, to adjust such assets to their estimated net realizable value. The Company establishes contingent liabilities for potentially unfavorable outcomes of positions taken on certain tax matters. These liabilities are based on management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authorities. Differences between the estimated and actual outcomes of these matters may result in future changes in estimates to such unrecognized tax benefits. Any such changes in estimates may impact the Company’s effective tax rate. In accordance with the Company’s accounting policies, accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of income tax expense. Revenue recognition — Revenue is recognized at the point at which control of the underlying products are transferred to the customer, which includes determining whether products are distinct and separate performance obligations. For electronic component and related product sales, transfer of control to the customer generally occurs upon product shipment, but it may occur at a later date depending on the agreed upon sales terms (such as delivery at the customer's designated location, or when products that are consigned at customer locations are consumed). In limited instances, where products are not in stock and delivery times are critical, product is purchased from the supplier and drop-shipped to the customer. The Company typically takes control of the products when shipped by the supplier and then recognizes revenue when control of the product transfers to the customer. The Company does not have material product warranty obligations, because the assurance type product warranties provided by the component manufacturers are passed through to the Company’s customers. For contracts related to the specialized manufacture of products for customers with no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment, including a reasonable profit margin, the Company recognizes revenue over time as control of the products transfer through the manufacturing process. The contract assets associated with such specialized manufacturing products are not material. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products. The Company estimates different forms of variable consideration at the time of sale based on historical experience, current conditions, and contractual obligations. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts and rebates. When the Company offers the right or has a history of accepting returns of product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns and an asset for the right to recover the product expected to be returned. These adjustments are made in the same period as the underlying sales transactions. The Company considers the following indicators amongst others when determining whether it is acting as a principal in the contract where revenue would be recorded on a gross basis: (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified products or services; (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified products have been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer; and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified products or services. If a transaction does not meet the Company’s indicators of being a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis. 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 the sale of supplier software services and supply chain services for the coordination, holding and delivery of inventory for which the company does not assume the risks and rewards of ownership. Sales tax and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. The Company accounts for shipping and handling of product as a fulfillment activity. The Company does not have any payment terms that exceed one year from the point it has satisfied the related performance obligations. Tariffs are included in sales as the company has enforceable rights to additional consideration to cover the cost of tariffs. Other 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. Vendor allowances and consideration — Consideration received from suppliers for price protection, product rebates, marketing/promotional activities, or any other programs are recorded when earned (under the terms and conditions of such supplier programs) as adjustments to product costs or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending upon the nature and contractual requirements related to the consideration received. Some of these supplier programs require management to make estimates and may extend over multiple periods. Comprehensive income (loss) — Comprehensive income (loss) represents net income for the year adjusted for certain changes in shareholders’ equity. Accumulated comprehensive income (loss) items impacting comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, and the impact of the Company’s pension liability adjustments, net of tax. Stock-based compensation — The Company measures stock-based payments at fair value and generally recognizes the associated operating expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the requisite service period. A stock-based payment is considered vested for accounting expense attribution purposes when the employee’s retention of the award is no longer contingent on providing continued service. Accordingly, the Company recognizes all stock-based compensation expense for awards granted to retirement eligible employees over the period from the grant date to the date retirement eligibility is achieved, if less than the stated requisite service period. The expense attribution approach for retirement eligible employees does not affect the overall amount of compensation expense recognized, but instead accelerates the recognition of such expense. Restructuring and exit activities — The determination of when the Company accrues for involuntary termination benefits under restructuring plans depends on whether the termination benefits are provided under an on-going benefit arrangement or under a one-time benefit arrangement. The Company accounts for on-going benefit arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 712 (“ASC 712”) Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits and accounts for one-time benefit arrangements in accordance with ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. If applicable, the Company records such costs into operating expense over the terminated employee’s future service period beyond any minimum retention period. Other costs associated with restructuring or exit activities may include contract termination costs and impairments of long-lived assets, which are expensed in accordance with ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations and ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment, respectively. Gain on legal settlements — The Company recognizes gains on legal settlements only when such gains are realized or realizable. Concentration of credit risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and trade accounts receivable. The Company invests its excess cash primarily in overnight time deposits and institutional money market funds with highly rated financial institutions. To reduce credit risk, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, in some instances, has obtained credit insurance coverage to reduce such risk. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses from customers, but has not historically experienced material losses related to individual customers or groups of customers in any particular end market or geographic area. Fair value — The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value based upon an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires inputs used in valuation techniques for measuring fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis be assigned to a hierarchical level as follows: Level 1 are observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; Level 2 are observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and, Level 3 are unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. During fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021, there were no transfers of assets measured at fair value between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair values at July 1, 2023, due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. At July 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022, the Company had $3.7 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of cash equivalents that were measured at fair value based upon Level 1 criteria. Investments — Equity investments in businesses or start-up companies (“ventures”) are accounted for using the equity method if the investment provides the Company the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the ventures. All other equity investments, which consist of investments for which the Company does not possess the ability to exercise significant influence over the ventures, are measured at fair value, using quoted market prices, or at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes when fair value is not readily determinable. Investments in ventures are included in “Other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value, including impairments for investments in ventures, if any, are recorded in “Other expense, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of July 1, 2023, the Company’s investments in ventures was not material to the consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of operations. Environmental liabilities — The Company accrues for environmental liabilities when it is probable that obligations have been incurred and the associated amounts can be reasonably estimated. The Company uses a third-party specialist to assist in appropriately measuring its obligations associated with environmental liabilities. Such liabilities are adjusted as new information develops or circumstances change. The Company does not discount its environmental liabilities as the timing of the anticipated cash payments is not fixed or readily determinable. The Company’s estimate of its potential liability is independent of any potential recovery of insurance proceeds or indemnification arrangements and the Company’s environmental liabilities have not been reduced for potential insurance recoveries. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements — During fiscal 2023, the Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements that had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Summary of significant accounting policies

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Avnet, Inc. and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Avnet”). All intercompany and intracompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassifications — Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to the current period presentation.

Fiscal year — The Company operates on a “52/53 week” fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday closest to June 30th. Fiscal 2023 and 2022 contain 52 weeks compared to 53 weeks in fiscal 2021. Unless otherwise noted, all references to “fiscal” or “year” shall mean the Company’s fiscal year.

Management estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, reported amounts of sales and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less including money market funds to be cash equivalents.

Receivables – Receivables, predominately comprised of customer trade accounts, are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the receivables’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information about expected credit losses, including information about historical credit losses, past events, current conditions, and other factors which may affect the collectability of receivables. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current receivable specific risk characteristics, such as changes in customer behavior, economic and industry changes, or other relevant factors. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pooled basis when similar risk characteristics exist.

Inventories — Inventories, comprised principally of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory cost includes the purchase price of finished goods and any freight cost incurred to receive the inventory into the Company’s distribution centers. The Company regularly reviews the cost of inventory against its estimated net realizable value, considering historical experience and any contractual rights of return, stock rotations, vendor rebates, excess, and obsolescence allowances, or price protections provided by the Company’s suppliers. It records the lower of cost or net realizable value write-down if any inventories have a cost in excess of such inventories’ estimated net realizable value.

Depreciation, amortization and useful lives — The Company reports property, plant, and equipment at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the assets, required installation costs, interest capitalized during the construction period, and any expenditure that substantially adds to the value or substantially extends the useful life of an existing asset. Additionally, the Company capitalizes qualified costs related to software obtained or developed for internal use as a component of property, plant, and equipment. Software obtained for

internal use has generally been enterprise-level business operations, logistics, and finance software that is customized to meet the Company’s specific operational requirements. The Company begins depreciation and amortization (“depreciation”) for property, plant, and equipment when an asset is both in the location and condition for its intended use.

Property, plant, and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives for property, plant, and equipment are typically as follows: buildings (30 years); machinery, fixtures and equipment (2-10 years); information technology hardware and software (2-10 years); and leasehold improvements (over the applicable lease term or economic useful life, if shorter).

The Company amortizes intangible assets acquired in business combinations or asset combinations using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the intangible assets from the date of acquisition, which is generally between 5-10 years.

Long-lived asset impairment — Long-lived assets, including property, plant, equipment, intangible assets and operating lease assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. For purposes of recognition and measurement of an impairment loss, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (“asset group”). An impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. An impairment is measured as the amount by which an asset group’s carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company considers a long-lived asset to be abandoned when it has ceased use of such abandoned asset and if the Company has no intent to use or repurpose the asset in the future. The Company continually evaluates the carrying value and the remaining economic useful life of long-lived assets and adjusts the carrying value and remaining useful life when appropriate.

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 15 years. The Company’s equipment leases are primarily for automobiles, distribution center equipment and office equipment, which are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. 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.

The Company’s leases generally do not provide an 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, which varies based on 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.

Goodwill — Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the estimated fair value assigned to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company does not amortize goodwill, but instead tests goodwill for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter. If necessary, the Company records any impairment resulting from such goodwill impairment testing as a component of operating expenses included within goodwill and intangible asset impairment expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, which is defined as the same, or one level below, an operating segment. The Company will perform an interim impairment test between required annual tests if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit that has goodwill is less than its carrying value.

In performing goodwill impairment testing, the Company may first make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more-likely-than-not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more-likely-than-not that a reporting unit’s fair value is not greater than its carrying value, the Company must perform a quantitative impairment test. The Company defines the fair value of a reporting unit as the price that would be received to sell the reporting unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the impairment test date. To determine the fair value of a reporting unit, the Company uses the income methodology of valuation, which includes the discounted cash flow method, and the market methodology of valuation, which considers values of comparable businesses to estimate the fair value of the Company’s reporting units.

Significant management judgment is required when estimating the fair value of the Company’s reporting units from a market participant perspective (including forecasting of future operating results and the discount rates used in the discounted cash flow method of valuation) and in the selection of comparable businesses and related market multiples that are used in the market method of valuation. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the reverse is true, then the Company measures a goodwill impairment loss based on such difference.

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.

Foreign currency translation — The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in effect at each balance sheet date, with the related translation adjustments reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss). Results of operations are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the reporting period. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Avnet subsidiaries that are party to the transactions are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at each balance sheet date or upon settlement of the transaction. Gains and losses from such remeasurements are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of “Other expense, net.”

Income taxes — The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax impact of differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary

differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized within income tax expense in the period in which the new tax rate is enacted. Based upon historical and estimated levels of future taxable income and analysis of other key factors, the Company may increase or decrease a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, as deemed necessary, to adjust such assets to their estimated net realizable value.

The Company establishes contingent liabilities for potentially unfavorable outcomes of positions taken on certain tax matters. These liabilities are based on management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authorities. Differences between the estimated and actual outcomes of these matters may result in future changes in estimates to such unrecognized tax benefits. Any such changes in estimates may impact the Company’s effective tax rate. In accordance with the Company’s accounting policies, accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of income tax expense.

Revenue recognition — Revenue is recognized at the point at which control of the underlying products are transferred to the customer, which includes determining whether products are distinct and separate performance obligations. For electronic component and related product sales, transfer of control to the customer generally occurs upon product shipment, but it may occur at a later date depending on the agreed upon sales terms (such as delivery at the customer's designated location, or when products that are consigned at customer locations are consumed). In limited instances, where products are not in stock and delivery times are critical, product is purchased from the supplier and drop-shipped to the customer. The Company typically takes control of the products when shipped by the supplier and then recognizes revenue when control of the product transfers to the customer. The Company does not have material product warranty obligations, because the assurance type product warranties provided by the component manufacturers are passed through to the Company’s customers.

For contracts related to the specialized manufacture of products for customers with no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment, including a reasonable profit margin, the Company recognizes revenue over time as control of the products transfer through the manufacturing process. The contract assets associated with such specialized manufacturing products are not material.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products. The Company estimates different forms of variable consideration at the time of sale based on historical experience, current conditions, and contractual obligations. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts and rebates. When the Company offers the right or has a history of accepting returns of product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns and an asset for the right to recover the product expected to be returned. These adjustments are made in the same period as the underlying sales transactions.

The Company considers the following indicators amongst others when determining whether it is acting as a principal in the contract where revenue would be recorded on a gross basis: (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified products or services; (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified products have been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer; and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified products or services. If a transaction does not meet the Company’s indicators of being a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis.

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 the sale of supplier software services and supply chain services for the coordination, holding and delivery of inventory for which the company does not assume the risks and rewards of ownership.

Sales tax and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. The Company accounts for shipping and handling of product as a fulfillment activity. The Company does not have any payment terms that exceed one year from the point it has satisfied the related performance obligations. Tariffs are included in sales as the company has enforceable rights to additional consideration to cover the cost of tariffs. Other 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.

Vendor allowances and consideration — Consideration received from suppliers for price protection, product rebates, marketing/promotional activities, or any other programs are recorded when earned (under the terms and conditions of such supplier programs) as adjustments to product costs or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending upon the nature and contractual requirements related to the consideration received. Some of these supplier programs require management to make estimates and may extend over multiple periods.

Comprehensive income (loss) — Comprehensive income (loss) represents net income for the year adjusted for certain changes in shareholders’ equity. Accumulated comprehensive income (loss) items impacting comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, and the impact of the Company’s pension liability adjustments, net of tax.

Stock-based compensation — The Company measures stock-based payments at fair value and generally recognizes the associated operating expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the requisite service period. A stock-based payment is considered vested for accounting expense attribution purposes when the employee’s retention of the award is no longer contingent on providing continued service. Accordingly, the Company recognizes all stock-based compensation expense for awards granted to retirement eligible employees over the period from the grant date to the date retirement eligibility is achieved, if less than the stated requisite service period. The expense attribution approach for retirement eligible employees does not affect the overall amount of compensation expense recognized, but instead accelerates the recognition of such expense.

Restructuring and exit activities — The determination of when the Company accrues for involuntary termination benefits under restructuring plans depends on whether the termination benefits are provided under an on-going benefit arrangement or under a one-time benefit arrangement. The Company accounts for on-going benefit arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 712 (“ASC 712”) Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits and accounts for one-time benefit arrangements in accordance with ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. If applicable, the Company records such costs into operating expense over the terminated employee’s future service period beyond any minimum retention period. Other costs associated with restructuring or exit activities may include contract termination costs and impairments of long-lived assets, which are expensed in accordance with ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations and ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment, respectively.

Gain on legal settlements — The Company recognizes gains on legal settlements only when such gains are realized or realizable.

Concentration of credit risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and trade accounts receivable. The Company invests its excess cash primarily in overnight time deposits and institutional money market funds with highly rated financial institutions. To reduce credit risk, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, in some instances, has obtained credit insurance coverage to reduce such risk. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses from customers, but has not historically experienced material losses related to individual customers or groups of customers in any particular end market or geographic area.

Fair value — The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value based upon an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires inputs used in valuation techniques for measuring fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis be assigned to a hierarchical level as follows: Level 1 are observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; Level 2 are observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and, Level 3 are unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. During fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021, there were no transfers of assets measured at fair value between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair values at July 1, 2023, due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. At July 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022, the Company had $3.7 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of cash equivalents that were measured at fair value based upon Level 1 criteria.

Investments — Equity investments in businesses or start-up companies (“ventures”) are accounted for using the equity method if the investment provides the Company the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the ventures. All other equity investments, which consist of investments for which the Company does not possess the ability to exercise significant influence over the ventures, are measured at fair value, using quoted market prices, or at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes when fair value is not readily determinable. Investments in ventures are included in “Other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value, including impairments for investments in ventures, if any, are recorded in “Other expense, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of July 1, 2023, the Company’s investments in ventures was not material to the consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of operations.

Environmental liabilities — The Company accrues for environmental liabilities when it is probable that obligations have been incurred and the associated amounts can be reasonably estimated. The Company uses a third-party specialist to assist in appropriately measuring its obligations associated with environmental liabilities. Such liabilities are adjusted as new information develops or circumstances change. The Company does not discount its environmental liabilities as the timing of the anticipated cash payments is not fixed or readily determinable. The Company’s estimate of its potential liability is independent of any potential recovery of insurance proceeds or indemnification arrangements and the Company’s environmental liabilities have not been reduced for potential insurance recoveries.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements — During fiscal 2023, the Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements that had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
