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. Certain reclassifications have been made to fiscal 2023 balances to correspond to the fiscal 2024 consolidated financial statement presentation.

Preparing 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 and assumptions.

Interim results of operations do not necessarily indicate 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 July 1, 2023.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities (subtopic 405-50): Supplier Finance Programs (“ASU No. 2022-04”) to enhance the transparency of certain supplier finance programs to assist financial statement users in understanding the effect of such programs on a company’s working capital, liquidity and cash flows. The new guidance requires qualitative and quantitative disclosure sufficient to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude of such programs. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, except for the amendment on roll-forward information, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2025. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2022-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Long-term debt					$	3,101,903	$	2,988,029

The Company has a trade accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Program”) in the United States with a group of financial institutions. The Securitization Program allows 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 of up to $700 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 $1.31 billion and $1.27 billion at September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, respectively. The Securitization Program contains certain covenants relating to the quality of the receivables sold.

The Company has a five-year $1.50 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which expires in August 2027. It consists 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. As of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, there were $0.9 million in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. 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 a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a leverage ratio not to exceed a certain threshold, which the Company was in compliance with as of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $3.17 billion and $3.05 billion, respectively. At July 1, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $3.06 billion and $2.98 billion, respectively. Fair value for the public notes was estimated based upon quoted market prices (Level 1) 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 (Level 2).

6. Derivative financial instruments

Many of the Company’s subsidiaries purchase and sell products in currencies other than their functional currencies, which subjects the Company to the risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates. This 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 Asian foreign currencies.

The Company uses economic hedges to reduce this risk utilizing natural hedging (i.e., offsetting receivables and payables in the same foreign currency) and creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments (primarily forward foreign exchange contracts typically with maturities of less than 60 days, 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 fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is based upon Level 2 criteria under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. 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. 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.

In fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a fixed-to-fixed rate cross currency swap (the “cross-currency swap”) with a notional amount of $500.0 million, or €472.6 million, that is set to mature in March 2028. The Company designated this derivative contract as a net investment hedge of its European operations and elected the spot method for measuring hedge effectiveness. Changes in fair value of the cross-currency swap is presented in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the consolidated balance sheets. Amounts related to the cross-currency swap recognized directly in net income represent net periodic interest settlements and accruals, which are recognized in “Interest and other financing expenses, net”, on the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the cross-currency swaps are based upon Level 2 criteria under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.

The Company uses these derivative financial instruments to manage risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not enter derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and monitors the financial stability and credit standing of its counterparties.

The locations and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

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. 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, particularly regarding to matters in early stages. 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 single reporting period.

As of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, the Company had aggregate estimated liabilities of $22.7 million classified within accrued expenses and other for such compliance-related matters that were reasonably estimable as of such dates.

Gain on Legal Settlements and Other

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company recorded a gain on legal settlements and other of $86.5 million in connection with a settlement of a claim filed against a manufacturer of capacitor.

8. Income taxes

The below discussion of the effective tax rate for the periods presented in the statements of operations is in comparison to the 21% U.S. statutory federal income tax rate.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) increases to unrecognized tax benefit reserves net of settlements, (ii) U.S. state taxes, and (iii) the mix of income in higher tax jurisdictions.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before taxes was 25.0%. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) increases to unrecognized tax benefit reserves and (ii) the mix of income in higher tax jurisdictions.

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 Avnet and the significant factors that influenced the Company’s performance during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, 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 July 1, 2023.

The discussion of the Company’s results of operations includes references to the impact of foreign currency translation. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the result is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens, the weaker exchange rates result in 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:

● Operating income excluding (i) restructuring, integration and other expenses, and (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets is referred to as “adjusted operating income.”

16

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

	First Quarters Ended
	September 30,		October 1,
	2023		2022
	(Thousands)
Operating income	$	253,769	$	290,537
Restructuring, integration and other expenses		7,051		—
Amortization of acquired intangible assets and other		878		2,759
Adjusted operating income	$	261,698	$	293,296

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to financial statement users 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.

Results of Operations

Executive Summary

Consolidated sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $6.34 billion, a decrease of $414.5 million or 6.1% compared to sales of $6.75 billion in the prior year first quarter.

Gross profit of $748.1 million and gross profit margin of 11.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to gross profit of $768.2 million and gross profit margin of 11.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Operating income of $253.8 million was $36.8 million or 12.7% lower than the prior year first quarter operating income of $290.5 million. Operating income margin was 4.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, as compared to 4.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of 29 basis points.

Sales

The following table presents sales growth rates for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as compared to fiscal 2023 by geographic region and operating group.

	Quarter Ended
	September 30, 2023
			Sales
			Year-Year %
	Sales		Change in

Asia	(16.6)		(15.8)

Farnell	(1.1)		(3.8)

Sales were $6.34 billion, down $414.5 million or 6.1% from the prior year first quarter sales of $6.75 billion. Sales decreased by 7.8% in constant currency in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 year over year with both operating groups contributing to this decrease.

EC sales of $5.91 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased $409.8 million or 6.5% from the prior year first quarter sales of $6.32 billion. EC sales decreased 8.1% year over year in constant currency. The decrease in sales in the Company's EC operating group is primarily due to lower demand as a result of the normalization of supply of electronic components when compared to the prior year.

Farnell sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $421.2 million, a decrease of $4.7 million or 1.1% from the prior year first quarter sales of $425.9 million. Farnell sales in constant currency in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased by 3.8% year over year due primarily to a decline in demand for electronic components from high service distributors and as a result of competitive pricing pressures.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $748.1 million, a decrease of $20.1 million or 2.6% from the first quarter of fiscal 2023 gross profit of $768.2 million. Gross profit margin of 11.8% increased 43 basis points compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023 gross profit margin of 11.4%. EC gross profit margin increased year over year primarily due to a larger proportion of sales coming from the higher-margin western regions. Sales in western regions represented approximately 60% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as compared to 55% during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Farnell gross profit margin decreased year over year largely due to the unwinding of component shortage pricing premiums, a lower sales mix of on the board electronic components and from competitive pricing pressures.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) were $487.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, an increase of $9.6 million or 2.0% from the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expenses was primarily a result of foreign currency translation.

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 first quarter of fiscal 2024, SG&A expenses were 7.7% of sales and

18

65.1% of gross profit, as compared with 7.1% and 62.2%, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expense as a percentage of both sales and gross profit is primarily due the decrease in sales and gross profit.

Restructuring, Integration and Other Expenses

The Company recorded restructuring, integration and other expenses of $7.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Restructuring expenses consisted of severance costs of $2.7 million related to the reduction, or planned reduction of over 50 employees in the Company’s Farnell operating group. Additionally, during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 the Company recorded $4.4 million in other expenses. The after-tax impact of restructuring, integration, and other expenses were $5.3 million and $0.06 per share on a diluted basis. As of September 30, 2023 the Company does not anticipate any material adjustments relating to the aforementioned restructuring and integration plans.

Operating Income

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $253.8 million, a decrease of $36.8 million or 12.7%, from the first quarter of fiscal 2023 operating income of $290.5 million. The year-over-year decrease in operating income was primarily driven by the decrease in sales, higher SG&A expenses, and restructuring, integration and other expenses, partially offset by the favorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates. Adjusted operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $261.7 million, a decrease of $31.6 million or 10.8% from the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Operating income margin was 4.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, a decrease of 29 basis points compared to 4.3% in the prior year first quarter.

EC operating income margin increased 38 basis points year over year to 4.6% and Farnell operating income margin decreased 792 basis points year over year to 4.2%. EC’s improvement in operating income margin is a result of higher gross profit margins and lower overall SG&A expenses year over year primarily in the western regions. The decrease in operating income margin at Farnell is primarily driven by lower sales and declines in gross profit margin as discussed further above.

Interest and Other Financing Expenses, Net

Interest and other financing expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $70.8 million, an increase of $25.7 million, as compared with interest and other financing expenses of $45.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The increases in interest and other financing expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023 is primarily a result of higher outstanding borrowings and increases in average borrowing rates during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Gain on Legal Settlements and other

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company recorded a gain on legal settlements and other of $86.5 million before tax, $66.1 million after tax, and $0.71 per share on a diluted basis, in connection with the settlement of claims filed against certain manufacturers of capacitors.

Income Tax

The below discussion of the effective tax rate for the periods presented in the statements of operations is in comparison to the 21% U.S. statutory federal income tax rate.

The Company’s effective tax rate on its income before taxes was 24.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) increases to unrecognized tax benefit reserves net of settlements, (ii) U.S. state taxes, and (iii) the mix of income in higher tax jurisdictions.

19

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate on its income before taxes was 25.0%. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted primarily by (i) increases to unrecognized tax benefit reserves and (ii) the mix of income in higher tax jurisdictions.

Net Income

As a result of the factors described in the preceding sections of this MD&A, the Company’s net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $209.3 million, or $2.25 per share on a diluted basis, as compared with $184.3 million, or $1.93 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company used $41.3 million of cash flow for operations compared to $645.1 million of cash used for operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. These operating cash flows were comprised of: (i) cash flow generated from net income, 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, and (ii) cash flows used for working capital and other, excluding cash and cash equivalents. Cash used for working capital and other was $280.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, including an increase in inventories of $371.6 million, and a decrease in accrued expenses and other of $50.2 million, offset by an increase in accounts payable of $111.5 million, and a decrease in accounts receivable of $30.2 million. Comparatively, cash used for working capital and other was $874.8 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2023, including increases in accounts receivable of $419.9 million, and in inventories of $559.0 million, and a decrease in accrued expenses and other of $16.8 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $120.9 million.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company received net proceeds of $243.6 million under the Credit Facility, and repaid $92.1 million under the Securitization Program, and $0.1 million under other short-term debt. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company paid dividends on common stock of $28.3 million and repurchased $24.3 million of common stock.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company received net proceeds of $702.0 million and $152.2 million under the Credit Facility and the Securitization Program, respectively, and a repayment of $85.4 million under the other short-term debt. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company paid dividends on common stock of $27.0 million and repurchased $152.4 million of common stock.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company used $76.1 million for capital expenditures as compared to $28.2 million for capital expenditures in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in capital expenditures is primarily due to distribution and warehouse expansions in EMEA.

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 July 1, 2023. 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 outside of the normal course of business.

20

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 September 30, 2023. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and the Securitization Program as of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023.

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 first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $68.6 million.

As an alternative form of liquidity outside of the United States, the Company sells certain of its trade accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis to 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 to the consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity

The Company held cash and cash equivalents of $278.7 million as of September 30, 2023, of which $183.2 million was held outside the United States. As of July 1, 2023, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $288.2 million, of which $194.5 million was held outside of the United States.

During periods of weakening demand in the electronic components industry, the Company typically generates cash from operating activities. Conversely, the Company will use cash for working capital requirements during periods of higher growth. The Company used $109.8 million in cash flows for operating activities over the trailing four fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2023.

Liquidity is subject to many factors, such as normal business operations and 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, including the need to purchase inventories, capital expenditures and other foreign business needs. 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.

As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company had a combined total borrowing capacity of $2.20 billion under the Credit Facility and the Securitization Program. There were $1.00 billion of borrowings outstanding and $0.9 million in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility, and $463.7 million outstanding under the Securitization Program, resulting in approximately $733.3 million of total committed availability as of September 30, 2023. Availability under the Securitization Program is subject to the Company having sufficient eligible trade accounts receivable in the United States to support desired borrowings.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company had an average daily balance outstanding of approximately $1.15 billion under the Credit Facility and approximately $624.9 million under the Securitization Program.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $291.5 million of shares of the Company’s common stock through the 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 including share price and other factors. The Company may terminate or limit the share repurchase program at any time without prior notice. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased $27.0 million of common stock.

21

The Company has historically paid quarterly cash dividends on shares of its common stock, and future dividends are subject to approval by the Board of Directors. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.31 per share, which resulted in $28.3 million of dividend payments during the quarter.

The Company continually monitors and reviews its liquidity position and funding needs. Management believes that the Company’s ability to generate operating cash flows through the liquidation of working capital in the future and available borrowing capacity, including capacity for the non-recourse sale of trade accounts receivable, will be sufficient to meet its future liquidity needs. Additionally, the Company believes that it has sufficient access to additional liquidity from the capital markets if necessary.

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 interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates by entering into financial arrangements, from time to time, that are intended to provide an economic hedge against some or all, 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 July 1, 2023, 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 July 1, 2023, 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 September 30, 2023, approximately 52% of the Company’s debt bears interest at a fixed rate and 48% 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 $3.8 million decrease in income before income taxes in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

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 (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 first quarter of fiscal 2024, 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 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 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 legal proceedings.

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 single 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 July 1, 2023, 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 September 30, 2023, 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 July 1, 2023.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved the repurchase plan of up to an aggregate of $600 million of common stock. The following table includes the Company’s monthly purchases of the Company’s common stock during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, under the share repurchase program, which is part of a publicly announced plan.

EX-10.1

Exhibit 10.1

Indemnification Agreement

This Indemnification Agreement (“Agreement”), dated __________, is made by and between Avnet, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company” or “Avnet”) and __________ (the “Indemnitee”).

Recitals

A.As permitted by Section 721 of the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York, Section 6.6 of Avnet’s By-Laws require Avnet to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.

B.Indemnitee has provided, or will provide, valuable service to Avnet and, consequently, may be subject to claims, actions, lawsuits, or other proceedings.

C.Avnet has determined that it is in its best interest to enter into this Agreement, to induce Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve as a director or officer of Avnet or an Avnet subsidiary, or to serve another enterprise at Avnet’s request.

Agreement

The parties hereto agree as follows:

I. Indemnification

a.Scope. Avnet shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify Indemnitee from and against Expenses in a Proceeding (both terms defined below). This indemnification obligation includes, without limitation, claims for monetary damages against Indemnitee in respect of an alleged breach of fiduciary duties, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

i.“Expenses” means all expenses, judgements, fines, and settlement payments that are actually and necessarily incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf, and includes, without limitation, (a) attorneys’ fees, costs, disbursements, and retainers, (b) experts’ or advisors’ fees, costs, disbursements, and retainers, (c) court, arbitrator, and mediator costs, disbursements, transcript costs, duplication, printing and binding costs, and postage and delivery costs, and (d) excise taxes assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan. Expenses also includes any additional income tax liability that Indemnitee incurs because of receiving indemnification hereunder.

ii.“Proceeding” means any threatened, pending, or completed suit, action, proceeding, arbitration, mediation, or alternative dispute resolution process, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, whether formal or informal, and any appeal therefrom, or any claim, issue, or matter therein, that Indemnitee is or was made, or is threatened to be made, a party to by reason of Indemnitee’s Service (as defined below) to Avnet.

iii.“Service” means past or present service (a) as a director or officer of Avnet or an Avnet Subsidiary (as defined below), or (b) at Avnet’s request, as a director, officer, employee,

or agent (which includes a trustee, partner or manager, or similar capacity) of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise.

iv.“Avnet Subsidiary” means any entity of any type in which Avnet is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of at least 50% or more of the voting power of the capital stock, partnership interest, membership interest, or other equity securities.

b.Good Faith. The indemnification provided by Section I.a shall be provided if (i) Indemnitee acted in good faith for a purpose that Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, Avnet’s best interests, and (ii) with respect to any criminal Proceeding, Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful (“Good Faith”). Indemnitee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be presumed to have acted in Good Faith, which presumption may be overcome only by clear and convincing evidence. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee (i) failed to act in Good Faith or (ii) with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

c.Participation in a Proceeding as a Non-Party. If Indemnitee is required to participate as a non-party (as a deponent, witness, or otherwise) in any Proceeding due to Indemnitee’s Service, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification against all Expenses actually and necessarily incurred to the fullest extent permitted by law.

d.Limitation Regarding Recoupment of Compensation. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section I.a for recoupment of incentive-based compensation pursuant to either Avnet’s incentive-based compensation recoupment policy (as Avnet may amend from time to time) or applicable law.

II. Advancement of Expenses

Avnet shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, advance Expenses actually and necessarily incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding, including, without limitation, a Proceeding to enforce Indemnitee’s rights, or Avnet’s obligations, under this Agreement. Advancement of Expenses shall not be conditioned on the posting of a bond or surety and shall be unsecured and interest-free. Indemnitee shall repay any such amounts if, and only to the extent that, it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise. Indemnitee shall not be required to demonstrate financial ability to make any such repayment. As required under New York law, Avnet shall provide advancement of expenses upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay such amounts to the extent required by law.

III. Process for Granting Advancement of Expenses and Indemnification

a.Notification: Indemnitee shall promptly notify Avnet of any Proceeding for which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification under Section I.a or advancement of Expenses under Section II. Indemnitee’s failure to promptly notify Avnet will not relieve Avnet from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee, except to the extent that such failure materially

2

prejudices Avnet’s defense of such Proceeding. Notification to Avnet shall be in writing and delivered to the following address (or at such other addresses as Avnet may specify):

Avnet, Inc.

2211 South 47^th Street

Phoenix, AZ 85034

Attn: General Counsel

b.Decision Maker. The Avnet Board of Directors (the “Board”), acting by a quorum of directors who are disinterested in the relevant Proceeding, shall determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to advancement of Expenses and indemnification. If such a quorum is not obtainable, then the Board shall make the determination upon the written opinion of independent legal counsel, who shall be appointed by the Board and approved by Indemnitee (which approval shall not be unreasonably denied or delayed).

c.Determination Regarding Advancement of Expenses. Advancement of expenses shall be deemed appropriate if the Board or independent legal counsel determines that a Proceeding exists. The Board or independent legal counsel shall make such determination within 30 calendar days after Indemnitee requests advancement of Expenses. If a determination is not made within that time frame, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to advancement of Expenses.

d.Determination Regarding Indemnification.

i.Full Indemnification for Good Faith. Avnet shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses in connection with a Proceeding if the Board or independent legal counsel determines that Indemnitee acted in Good Faith, regardless of the outcome of the Proceeding. The Board or independent legal counsel shall make such determination within 120 calendar days after the relevant Proceeding is fully resolved. If a determination is not made within that time frame, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification.

ii.Full Indemnification if Wholly Successful. Avnet shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses in connection with a fully resolved Proceeding if Indemnitee is wholly successful in a Proceeding. In such case, it shall not be necessary for the Board or independent legal counsel to make a Good Faith determination under III.d.i. Indemnitee shall be considered wholly successful in a Proceeding if it is fully resolved with (i) no finding adverse to Indemnitee, (ii) no plea of guilty or nolo contendere by Indemnitee, and (iii) no finding that Indemnitee failed to act in Good Faith.

iii.Partial Indemnification. If the Board or independent legal counsel determines under Section II.d.i that Indemnitee failed to act in Good Faith, but Indemnitee is partially successful in defense of any fully resolved Proceeding (i.e., successful in defense of one or more (but not all) discrete claims, issues, or matters therein), then Avnet shall indemnify Indemnitee against Expenses related to Indemnitee’s partial success in the Proceeding.

e.Information Supporting Determinations. Indemnitee shall timely submit to the Board or independent legal counsel, as applicable, any requested documents and information that are reasonably available and necessary to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to advancement of Expenses or indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Indemnitee shall

3

not be required to submit documentation and information to the extent that it would (i) result in the loss of attorney-client or work product privilege, (ii) be prohibited by applicable law, or (iii) be prohibited by any agreement to which Indemnitee is a party.

f.Reimbursement of Expenses Related to Determinations. Avnet shall reimburse Indemnitee for Expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred in connection with Indemnitee’s request for advancement of expenses or indemnification under this Agreement, under any provision of Avnet’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, or any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance provided by Avnet. Avnet shall provide such reimbursement regardless of whether Indemnitee is determined to be entitled to advancement of Expenses or indemnification hereunder.

IV. Defense of Claim

If Avnet becomes obligated to provide advancement of Expenses with respect to a Proceeding as provided in this Agreement, then Avnet shall be entitled (but not obligated) to assume the defense of such Proceeding, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee’s own counsel in such Proceeding at Indemnitee’s expense. Once Avnet assumes the defense of such Proceeding, then Avnet will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same Proceeding, unless (i) Avnet has expressly authorized Indemnitee to employ counsel at Avnet’s expense, or (ii) Indemnitee reasonably concludes that there is a conflict of interest between Avnet and Indemnitee with respect to the Proceeding.

V. Submitting Expenses

If Indemnitee is deemed to be entitled to advancement of Expenses under Section III.c, then Indemnitee shall timely submit to Avnet a written request that includes such documentation and information as is reasonably available and necessary to verify Expenses that are eligible for advancement. Avnet shall respond within 30 days by (i) providing payment, (ii) seeking additional information, or (iii) explaining why the request (or any portion thereof) is denied.

VI. Insurance and Subrogation

Avnet may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to Indemnitee’s Service. Avnet shall be subrogated to all rights of recovery of Indemnitee with respect to any insurance policy, and Indemnitee shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable Avnet to bring suit to enforce such rights. Avnet shall pay or reimburse all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such subrogation.

VII. Settlement Provisions

a.Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section I.a with respect to a Proceeding that has been settled to the extent that such indemnification would be inconsistent with any settlement condition imposed by the court in approving settlement.

4

b.Avnet shall have no obligation to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement for amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding settled by Indemnitee without Avnet’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Avnet shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner that would impose any fine or other obligation on Indemnitee, or includes an admission of fault by Indemnitee, without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

VIII. Non-Exclusivity

The rights to advancement of Expenses and indemnification granted to Indemnitee under this Agreement are not exclusive of, or in limitation of, any other rights to which Indemnitee is entitled, including any rights under applicable law, Avnet’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Avnet’s By-Laws, any agreement, any resolution of shareholders or directors, or otherwise. However, Avnet shall not be liable to provide advancement of Expenses or indemnification under this Agreement to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received indemnification, reimbursement, or coverage for Expenses under any insurance policy, contract, agreement, or otherwise.

IX. Miscellany

a.Savings Clause. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that any portion of this Agreement is invalid, then Avnet shall advance Expenses and indemnify Indemnitee under any applicable portions of this Agreement that have not been invalidated, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

b.Amendment, Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and no waiver or modification its terms shall be valid unless in writing signed by both Avnet and Indemnitee. This Agreement supersedes and replaces any prior indemnification agreements entered into by and between Avnet and Indemnitee and any such prior agreements shall be terminated upon execution of this Agreement.

c.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Indemnitee and Avnet and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee, his or her heirs, personal representatives, and assigns, and to the benefit of Avnet and its successors and assigns.

d.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly within New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws principles thereof.

e.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and which together shall be one instrument.

f.Headings. The section and subsection headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

5

Each of the parties hereto has executed this Agreement to be effective as of the day and year first above written.

Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements

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. Certain reclassifications have been made to fiscal 2023 balances to correspond to the fiscal 2024 consolidated financial statement presentation.

Preparing 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 and assumptions.

Interim results of operations do not necessarily indicate 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 July 1, 2023.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities (subtopic 405-50): Supplier Finance Programs (“ASU No. 2022-04”) to enhance the transparency of certain supplier finance programs to assist financial statement users in understanding the effect of such programs on a company’s working capital, liquidity and cash flows. The new guidance requires qualitative and quantitative disclosure sufficient to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude of such programs. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, except for the amendment on roll-forward information, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2025. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2022-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company has a trade accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Program”) in the United States with a group of financial institutions. The Securitization Program allows 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 of up to $700 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 $1.31 billion and $1.27 billion at September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, respectively. The Securitization Program contains certain covenants relating to the quality of the receivables sold.

The Company has a five-year $1.50 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which expires in August 2027. It consists 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. As of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, there were $0.9 million in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. 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 a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a leverage ratio not to exceed a certain threshold, which the Company was in compliance with as of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $3.17 billion and $3.05 billion, respectively. At July 1, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $3.06 billion and $2.98 billion, respectively. Fair value for the public notes was estimated based upon quoted market prices (Level 1) 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 (Level 2).

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments

6. Derivative financial instruments

Many of the Company’s subsidiaries purchase and sell products in currencies other than their functional currencies, which subjects the Company to the risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates. This 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 Asian foreign currencies.

The Company uses economic hedges to reduce this risk utilizing natural hedging (i.e., offsetting receivables and payables in the same foreign currency) and creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments (primarily forward foreign exchange contracts typically with maturities of less than 60 days, 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 fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is based upon Level 2 criteria under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. 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. 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.

In fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a fixed-to-fixed rate cross currency swap (the “cross-currency swap”) with a notional amount of $500.0 million, or €472.6 million, that is set to mature in March 2028. The Company designated this derivative contract as a net investment hedge of its European operations and elected the spot method for measuring hedge effectiveness. Changes in fair value of the cross-currency swap is presented in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the consolidated balance sheets. Amounts related to the cross-currency swap recognized directly in net income represent net periodic interest settlements and accruals, which are recognized in “Interest and other financing expenses, net”, on the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the cross-currency swaps are based upon Level 2 criteria under the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.

The Company uses these derivative financial instruments to manage risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not enter derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and monitors the financial stability and credit standing of its counterparties.

The locations and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

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. 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, particularly regarding to matters in early stages. 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 single reporting period.

As of September 30, 2023, and July 1, 2023, the Company had aggregate estimated liabilities of $22.7 million classified within accrued expenses and other for such compliance-related matters that were reasonably estimable as of such dates.

Gain on Legal Settlements and Other

Basis of presentation and new accounting pronouncements (Policies)

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. Certain reclassifications have been made to fiscal 2023 balances to correspond to the fiscal 2024 consolidated financial statement presentation.

Preparing 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 and assumptions.

Interim results of operations do not necessarily indicate 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 July 1, 2023.

New accounting pronouncements

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities (subtopic 405-50): Supplier Finance Programs (“ASU No. 2022-04”) to enhance the transparency of certain supplier finance programs to assist financial statement users in understanding the effect of such programs on a company’s working capital, liquidity and cash flows. The new guidance requires qualitative and quantitative disclosure sufficient to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude of such programs. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, except for the amendment on roll-forward information, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2025. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2022-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
