Organization of Sanmina

Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware in 1989. The Company is a leading global provider of integrated manufacturing solutions, components, products and repair, logistics and after-market services. The Company provides these comprehensive solutions primarily to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) that serve the industrial, medical, defense and aerospace, automotive, communications networks and cloud infrastructure industries.

The Company’s operations are managed as two businesses:

1)Integrated Manufacturing Solutions (“IMS”). IMS is a single operating segment consisting of printed circuit board (“PCB”) assembly and test, high-level assembly and test and direct-order-fulfillment.

2)Components, Products and Services (“CPS”). Components include advanced PCBs, backplanes and backplane assemblies, cable assemblies, fabricated metal parts, precision machined parts, and plastic injected molded parts. Products include optical, radio frequency (“RF”) and microelectronic design and manufacturing services from the Company’s Advanced Microsystems Technologies division; multi-chip package memory solutions from the Company’s Viking Technology division; high-performance storage platforms for hyperscale and enterprise solutions from the Company’s Viking Enterprise Solutions division; defense and aerospace products, design, manufacturing, repair and refurbishment services from the Company’s SCI Technology, Inc. (“SCI”) subsidiary; and cloud-based smart manufacturing execution software from the Company’s 42Q division. Services include design, engineering, and logistics and repair.

The Company has one reportable segment, IMS, for financial reporting purposes which represented approximately 80% of total revenue in 2025. The Company’s CPS business consists of multiple operating segments which do not individually meet the quantitative thresholds for being presented as reportable segments. Therefore, financial information for these operating segments is combined and presented in a single category called “CPS”. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those disclosed by the Company for its consolidated financial statements.

 Basis of Presentation

Fiscal Year. The Company operates on a 52 or 53 week year ending on the Saturday nearest September 30. Fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 were each a 52 week year. All references to years relate to fiscal years unless otherwise noted.

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intra-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interest represents a noncontrolling investor’s interest in the results of operations of subsidiaries that the Company controls and consolidates.

Reclassification. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the Company changed the presentation of deferred revenue and customer advances, which were previously included within accrued liabilities, to be a separate line item on the consolidated balance sheets. Similarly, a separate line for the change in those amounts is presented on the consolidated statements of cash flows. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes.
