NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the "company" or "Arrow") were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations at and for the periods presented.  The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 3, 2010, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Quarter End

The company operates on a quarterly reporting calendar that closes on the Saturday following the end of the calendar quarter.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Note B – Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-13, "Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements" ("ASU No. 2009-13"). ASU No. 2009-13 amends guidance included within Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605-25 to require an entity to use an estimated selling price when vendor specific objective evidence or acceptable third party evidence does not exist for any products or services included in a multiple element arrangement. The arrangement consideration should be allocated among the products and services based upon their relative selling prices, thus eliminating the use of the residual method of allocation. ASU No. 2009-13 also requires expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding significant judgments made and changes in applying this guidance. ASU No. 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  Early adoption and retrospective application are also permitted.  The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2009-13.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-14, "Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements" ("ASU No. 2009-14"). ASU No. 2009-14 amends guidance included within ASC Topic 985-605 to exclude tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality.  Entities that sell joint hardware and software products that meet this scope exception will be required to follow the guidance of ASU No. 2009-13.  ASU No. 2009-14 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  Early adoption and retrospective application are also permitted.  The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2009-14.

Note C – Acquisitions

The results of operations of the below acquisitions were included in the company's consolidated results from their respective dates of acquisition.

2010

On June 1, 2010, the company acquired Converge, Inc. ("Converge") for a purchase price of $138,363, which included cash acquired of $4,803, debt paid at closing of $27,546, and is subject to a final working capital adjustment.  Converge is a leading provider of reverse logistics services, headquartered in Peabody, Massachusetts.  Converge, with approximately 350 employees, also has offices in Singapore and Amsterdam, with support centers throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas.  For the second quarter of 2010, Converge sales of $27,243 were included in the company's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.  Total Converge sales for 2009 were approximately $280,000.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the net consideration paid to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Converge acquisition:

The company allocated $12,400 of the purchase price to intangible assets relating to customer relationships, with a useful life of ten years and $1,100 to other intangible assets (consisting of non-competition agreements and sales backlog), with useful lives ranging from one to two years.

The cost in excess of net assets of companies acquired related to the Converge acquisition was recorded in the company's global components business segment.  The intangible assets related to the Converge acquisition are not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the company's unaudited consolidated results of operations for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, as well as the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations of the company, as though the Converge acquisition occurred on January 1, 2010:

In April 2010, the company acquired Verical Incorporated ("Verical"), an ecommerce business geared towards meeting the end-of-life components and parts shortage needs of customers.  In June 2010, the company acquired Sphinx Group Limited ("Sphinx"), a United Kingdom-based value-added distributor of security and networking solutions.  The impact of these acquisitions was not material to the company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.  Annual sales for these acquisitions were approximately $83,000.

2009

On December 20, 2009, the company acquired A.E. Petsche Company, Inc.

In March 2010, the company made a payment of $3,060 to increase its ownership in a majority-owned subsidiary.  The payment was recorded as a reduction to capital in excess of par value, partially offset by the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest.

The carrying amount of the company's short-term borrowings, bank term loan, and other obligations approximate their fair value.

During the second quarter of 2010, the company sold a facility and was required to repay the related collateralized debt with a face amount of $9,000.  For both the second quarter and first six months of 2010, the company recognized a loss on prepayment of debt of $1,570 ($964 net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The company has an $800,000 revolving credit facility with a group of banks that matures in January 2012.  Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a euro currency rate plus a spread based on the company's credit ratings (.425% at July 3, 2010). The facility fee related to the credit facility is .125%.

The company has a $300,000 asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivables of certain of its North American subsidiaries which expires in March 2011.  The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment.  Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheet.  Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread, which is based on the company's credit ratings (.60% at July 3, 2010).  The facility fee is .50%.

The company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility or asset securitization program at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009.  Both programs include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings, limit the company's ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock, and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 3, 2010 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.

Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest income of $1,281 and $1,620 for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 and $777 and $2,408 for the second quarter and first six months 2009, respectively.

Note H – Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  The company utilizes a fair value hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs

ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)

when measuring fair value.  The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2
Quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3
Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Interest Rate Swaps

The company enters into interest rate swap transactions that convert certain fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt or variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt in order to manage its targeted mix of fixed- and floating-rate debt.  The effective portion of the change in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges are recorded as a change to the carrying value of the related hedged debt, and the effective portion of the change in fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in the shareholders' equity section in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in "Other."  The

ineffective portion of the interest rate swap, if any, is recorded in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

In June 2004, the company entered into interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional amount of $200,000, of which $130,455 was terminated in 2009 upon the repayment of a portion of the underlying debt.  The swaps modify the company's interest rate exposure by effectively converting the fixed 9.15% senior notes to a floating rate, based on the six-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread (an effective rate of 4.75% and 4.94% at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively), through its maturity.  The swaps are classified as fair value hedges and had a fair value of $728 and $2,036 at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

In June 2004 and November 2009, the company entered into interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional amount of $275,000.  The swaps modify the company's interest rate exposure by effectively converting a portion of the fixed 6.875% senior notes to a floating rate, based on the six-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread (an effective rate of 4.37% and 4.18% at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively), through its maturity.  The swaps are classified as fair value hedges and had a fair value of $14,745 and $9,556 at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Cross-Currency Swaps

The company enters into cross-currency swaps to hedge a portion of its net investment in euro-denominated net assets. The company’s cross-currency swaps are derivatives designated as net investment hedges.  The effective portion of the change in the fair value of derivatives designated as net investment hedges is recorded in "Foreign currency translation adjustment" included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and any ineffective portion is recorded in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  As the notional amounts of the company’s cross-currency swaps are expected to equal a comparable amount of hedged net assets, no material ineffectiveness is expected.  The company uses the hypothetical derivative method to assess the effectiveness of its net investment hedges on a quarterly basis.

In May 2006, the company entered into a cross-currency swap, with a maturity date of July 2011, for approximately $100,000 or €78,281 (the "2006 cross-currency swap").  In October 2005, the company entered into a cross-currency swap, with a maturity date of October 2010, for approximately $200,000 or €168,384 (the "2005 cross-currency swap").  These cross-currency swaps hedge a portion of the company's net investment in euro-denominated net assets, by effectively converting the interest expense on $300,000 of long-term debt from U.S. dollars to euros.   During the second quarter of 2010, the company paid $2,282, plus accrued interest, to terminate these cross-currency swaps.  The 2006 cross-currency swap and the 2005 cross-currency swap had a negative fair value at December 31, 2009 of $12,497 and $41,943, respectively.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The company enters into foreign exchange forward, option, or swap contracts (collectively, the "foreign exchange contracts") to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  These contracts are executed to facilitate the hedging of foreign currency exposures resulting from inventory purchases and sales and generally have terms of no more than six months. Gains or losses on these contracts are deferred and recognized when the underlying future purchase or sale is recognized or when the corresponding asset or liability is revalued. The company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for trading purposes. The risk of loss on a foreign exchange contract is the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties, which the company minimizes by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions.  The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts, which are nominal, are estimated using market quotes.  The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $369,577 and $294,928, respectively.

Other

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

Cash equivalents consist primarily of overnight time deposits and institutional money market funds with quality financial institutions.  These financial institutions are located in many different geographical regions, and the company's policy is designed to limit exposure with any one institution.  As part of its cash and risk management processes, the company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions.

Note I – Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges

During the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, the company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $5,649 ($4,095 net of related taxes or $.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and $19,252 ($16,124 net of related taxes or $.13 per share on both a basic and diluted basis), respectively.

During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, the company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $13,086 ($9,640 net of related taxes or $.08 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and $43,270 ($32,193 net of related taxes or $.27 per share on both a basic and diluted basis), respectively.

The restructuring charge of $10,987 for the first six months of 2010 primarily includes personnel costs of $8,966 and facilities costs of $201.  The personnel costs are related to the elimination of approximately 90 positions within the global ECS business segment and approximately 80 positions within the global components business segment.  The facilities costs are related to exit activities for 4 vacated facilities in Europe due to the company's continued efforts to streamline its operations and reduce real estate costs. These initiatives are due to the company's continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency.

Environmental and Related Matters

In 2000, the company assumed certain of the then outstanding obligations of Wyle Electronics ("Wyle"), including Wyle's obligation to indemnify the purchasers of its Laboratories division for environmental clean-up costs associated with pre-1995 contamination or violation of environmental regulations.  Under the terms of the company's purchase of Wyle from the VEBA Group ("VEBA"), VEBA agreed to indemnify the company for, among other things, costs related to environmental pollution associated with Wyle, including those associated with Wyle's sale of its Laboratories division.  The company is currently engaged in clean up and/or investigative activities at the Wyle sites in Huntsville, Alabama and Norco, California.

Characterization of the extent of contaminated soil and groundwater continues at the site in Huntsville, and approximately $3,000 was spent to date.  The company currently estimates additional investigative and related expenditures at the site of approximately $500 to $1,000, depending on the results of which the cost of subsequent remediation is estimated to be between $2,500 and $4,000.

At the Norco site, approximately $29,000 was expended to date on project management, regulatory oversight, and investigative and feasibility study activities, providing the technical basis for a final Remedial Investigation Report that was submitted to California oversight authorities during the first quarter of 2008.

Remedial activities underway include the remediation of contaminated groundwater at certain areas on the Norco site and of soil gas in a limited area immediately adjacent to the site, and a hydraulic containment system that captures and treats groundwater before it moves into the adjacent offsite area.  Approximately $9,000 was spent on these activities to date, and it is anticipated that these activities, along with the initial phases of the treatment of contaminated groundwater offsite and remaining Remedial Action Work Plan costs, will cost an additional $9,700 to $18,700.

The company currently estimates that the additional cost of project management and regulatory oversight on the Norco site will range from $400 to $500.  Ongoing remedial investigations (including costs related to soil and groundwater investigations), and the preparation of a final remedial investigation report are projected to cost between $400 to $700.

Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the complete scope of work in connection with the Norco site is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs not yet determined.

In October 2005, the company filed suit against E.ON AG in the Frankfurt am Main Regional Court in Germany.  The suit seeks indemnification, contribution, and a declaration of the parties’ respective rights and obligations in connection with the related litigation and other costs associated with the Norco site.  In its answer to the company’s claim filed in March 2009 in the German proceedings, E.ON AG filed a counterclaim against the company for approximately $16,000. The litigation is currently suspended while the company engages in a court-facilitated mediation with E.ON AG. The mediation commenced in December 2009 and will continue well into 2010.  The company believes it has reasonable defenses to the counterclaim and plans to defend its position vigorously. The company believes that the ultimate resolution of the counterclaim will not have a material adverse impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

During the second quarter of 2009, the company entered into binding settlement agreements resolving several of the lawsuits associated with the above-mentioned environmental liabilities (Gloria Austin, et al . v. Wyle Laboratories, Inc. et al., the other claims of plaintiff Norco landowners and residents which were consolidated with it, and an action by Wyle Laboratories, Inc. for defense and indemnification in connection with the Austin and related cases).  Arrow's actions against E.ON AG, successor to VEBA, for the judicial enforcement of the various indemnification provisions; and Arrow's claim against a number of insurers on policies relevant to the Wyle sites are ongoing and unresolved. The litigation is described more fully in Note 15 and Item 3 of Part I of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The company believes that the recovery of costs incurred to date associated with the environmental clean-up costs related to the Norco and Huntsville sites is probable.  Accordingly, the company increased the receivable for indemnified amounts due from E.ON AG by $1,883 during the first six months of 2010 to $42,795. The company’s net costs for such indemnified matters may vary from period to period as estimates of recoveries are not always recognized in the same period as the accrual of estimated expenses.

Other

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the company may become liable with respect to other pending and threatened litigation, environmental, regulatory, labor, product, and tax matters.  While such

matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, it is not currently anticipated that any such matters will have a material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.


The company is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions.  The company distributes electronic components to original equipment manufacturers and contract manufacturers through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers through its global ECS business segment.  As a result of the company's philosophy of maximizing operating efficiencies through the centralization of certain functions, selected fixed assets and related depreciation, as well as borrowings, are not directly attributable to the individual operating segments and are included in the corporate business segment.

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations .
Overview

Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the "company") is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions.  The company provides one of the broadest product offerings in the electronic components and enterprise computing solutions distribution industries and a wide range of value-added services to help customers reduce time to market, lower their total cost of ownership, introduce innovative products through demand creation opportunities, and enhance their overall competitiveness. The company has two business segments, the global components business segment and the global enterprise computing solutions ("ECS") business segment.  The company distributes electronic components to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") and contract manufacturers ("CMs") through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers ("VARs") through its global ECS business segment.   For the first six months of 2010, approximately 72% of the company's sales were from the global components business segment, and approximately 28% of the company's sales were from the global ECS business segment.

The company's business initiatives are to grow sales faster than the market, grow profits faster than sales, and increase return on invested capital.  To achieve its financial objectives, the company seeks to capture significant opportunities to grow across products, markets, and geographies.  To supplement its organic growth strategy, the company continually evaluates strategic acquisitions to broaden its product offerings, increase its market penetration, and/or expand its geographic reach.  Cash flow needed to fund this growth is primarily expected to be generated through continuous corporate-wide initiatives to improve profitability and increase effective asset utilization.

On June 1, 2010, the company acquired Converge, Inc. ("Converge") a leading provider of reverse logistics services. On December 20, 2009, the company acquired A.E. Petsche Company, Inc. ("Petsche"), a leading provider of interconnect products, including specialty wire, and harness management solutions, to the aerospace and defense markets.  Results of operations of Converge and Petsche were included in the company's consolidated results from their respective dates of acquisition within the company's global components business segment.

Consolidated sales for the second quarter of 2010 increased by 36.0%, compared with the year-earlier period, due to a 43.5% increase in the global components business segment sales and a 20.9% increase in the global ECS business segment sales.  On a pro forma basis, which includes Converge and Petsche as though these acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2009, consolidated sales increased 33.3%. The translation of the company's international financial statements into U.S. dollars resulted in a reduction in consolidated sales of $54.1 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared with the year-earlier period, due to a stronger U.S. dollar.  Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the company's consolidated sales increased by 38.2% for the second quarter of 2010.

Net income attributable to shareholders increased to $116.2 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with net income attributable to shareholders of $21.1 million in the year-earlier period.  The following items impacted the comparability of the company's results:

Second quarter of 2010 and 2009:

·
restructuring, integration, and other charges of $5.6 million ($4.1 million net of related taxes) in 2010 and $19.3 million ($16.1 million net of related taxes) in 2009; and
·
a loss on prepayment of debt of $1.6 million ($1.0 million net of related taxes) in 2010.
23


First six months of 2010 and 2009:

·
restructuring, integration, and other charges of $13.1 million ($9.6 million net of related taxes) in 2010 and $43.3 million ($32.2 million net of related taxes) in 2009; and
·
a loss on prepayment of debt of $1.6 million ($1.0 million net of related taxes) in 2010.

Excluding the above-mentioned items, the increase in net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter of 2010 was primarily the result of the sales increases in both the global components business segment and the global ECS business segment, increased gross profit margins, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales due to the company's continuing efforts to streamline and simplify processes, and a lower effective income tax rate, offset, in part, by increased net interest and other financing expense.

Substantially all of the company's sales are made on an order-by-order basis, rather than through long-term sales contracts.  As such, the nature of the company's business does not provide for the visibility of material forward-looking information from its customers and suppliers beyond a few months.

Sales

Following is an analysis of net sales by reportable segment (in millions):

Second Quarter Ended:
Global components
$ 3,259 $ 2,272 43.5 %

Global ECS
2,462 2,193 12.3 %
Consolidated
$ 8,849 $ 6,809 30.0 %

Consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased by $1.22 billion, or 36.0%, and $2.04 billion, or 30.0%, compared with the year-earlier periods.  The increase was driven by an increase in the global components business segment sales of $987.4 million, or 43.5%, and $1.77 billion, or 38.3%, for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, and an increase in the global ECS business segment sales of $234.0 million, or 20.9%, and $269.0 million, or 12.3%, for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.  On a pro forma basis, which includes Converge and Petsche as though these acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2009, consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased 33.3% and 27.6%, respectively.  The translation of the company's international financial statements into U.S. dollars resulted in a reduction in consolidated sales of $54.1 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared with the year-earlier period, due to a stronger U.S. dollar.  The translation of the company's international financial statements into U.S. dollars resulted in increased consolidated sales of $21.3 million for the first six months of 2010, compared with the year-earlier period, due to a weaker U.S. dollar.   Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the company's consolidated sales increased by 38.2% and 29.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.

In the global components business segment, sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased primarily due to strength in all three of the company's regional businesses as a result of strengthening in the world's economies.  On a pro forma basis, which includes Converge and Petsche as though these acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2009, global components business segment sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased 39.1% and 34.5%, respectively.  The growth in

24


the global components business segment for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was primarily driven by the sales increase in EMEA of 51.8% and 38.3%, the sales increase in the Americas of 44.9% and 36.8%, the sales increase in Asia/Pacific of 26.2% and 32.1%, respectively, and, to a lesser extent, the acquisitions of Converge and Petsche.  Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the company's global components business segment sales increased by 45.4% and 37.6% for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.

In the global ECS business segment, the sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased primarily due to higher demand for products.  The increase in sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was due to growth in storage, software, services, and industry standard servers, offset, in part, by declines in proprietary servers.   Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the company's global ECS business segment sales increased by 23.4% and 12.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.

Gross Profit

The company recorded gross profit of $588.5 million and $1.13 billion in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared with $402.2 million and $833.2 million in the year-earlier periods.  The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the 36.0% and 30.0% increase in sales during the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.  The gross profit margin for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased by approximately 90 and 50 basis points, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.  The increase in gross profit as a percent of sales for both the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was primarily due to increasing gross profit in the global components business, offset, in part, by lower gross profit in the global ECS business due to a lower mix of proprietary servers, compared with the year-earlier period.  In addition, the global components business segment sales comprised a larger percentage of the company's consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 as compared with the year-earlier periods.  The gross profit margins of products sold in the global components business segment are typically higher than the profit margins of products in the global ECS business segment.

Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges

2010 Charges

The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $5.6 million ($4.1 million net of related taxes or $.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and $13.1 million ($9.6 million net of related taxes or $.08 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.   Included in the restructuring, integration, and other charges for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 are restructuring charges of $5.8 million and $11.0 million, respectively, related to initiatives taken by the company to improve operating efficiencies. Also included in the restructuring, integration, and other charges for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 is a credit of $1.1 million and a charge of $1.1 million, respectively, related to restructuring and integration actions taken in prior periods and acquisition-related expenses of $.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
The restructuring charges of $5.8 million and $11.0 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 primarily includes personnel costs of $4.1 million and $9.0 million, respectively.  Also included in the restructuring charge for the first six months of 2010 are facilities costs of $.2 million.  The personnel costs are related to the elimination of approximately 90 positions within the global ECS business segment and approximately 80 positions within the global components business segment.  The facilities costs are related to exit activities for 4 vacated facilities in Europe due to the company's continued efforts to streamline its operations and reduce real estate costs. These initiatives are due to the company's continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency.
25


2009 Charges

The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $19.3 million ($16.1 million net of related taxes or $.13 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and $43.3 million ($32.2 million net of related taxes or $.27 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) for the second quarter and first six months of 2009, respectively. Included in the restructuring, integration, and other charges for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 are restructuring charges of $20.0 million and $43.4 million, respectively, related to initiatives taken by the company to improve operating efficiencies.  Also, included in the restructuring, integration, and other charges for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 are credits of $.7 million and $.2 million, respectively, related to restructuring and integration actions taken in prior periods.

The restructuring charges of $20.0 million and $43.4 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2009, respectively, primarily includes personnel costs of $17.8 million and $39.4 million and facilities costs of $1.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively.  The personnel costs are related to the elimination of approximately 760 positions within the global components business segment and approximately 235 positions within the global ECS business segment.  The facilities costs are related to exit activities for ten vacated facilities worldwide due to the company's continued efforts to streamline its operations and reduce real estate costs.  These initiatives are due to the company's continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency.

Operating Income

The company recorded operating income of $189.2 million and $334.5 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, as compared with operating income of $51.2 million and $112.4 million in the year-earlier periods.  Included in operating income for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 were the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges of $5.6 million and $13.1 million, respectively.  Included in operating income for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 were the previously discussed restructuring and integration charges of $19.3 million and $43.3 million, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $60.8 million, or 19.3%, in the second quarter of 2010 on a sales increase of 36.0% compared with the second quarter of 2009 and $98.5 million, or 15.3%, for the first six months of 2010 on a sales increase of 30.0% compared with the first six months of 2009.  The dollar increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher variable selling, general and administrative expenses to support the increased sales, the reinstatement of certain employee-related costs that were temporarily suspended during the global economic downturn, and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by Converge and Petsche, which were acquired in June 2010 and December 2009, respectively.  These increases were offset, in part, by the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar on the translation of the company's international financial statements for the second quarter of 2010 compared with the year-earlier period.  Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 decreased to 8.1% from 9.3%, respectively, and to 8.4% from 9.5% for the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, primarily due to the company's continuing efforts to streamline and simplify processes.

Loss on Prepayment of Debt

During the second quarter of 2010, the company sold a facility and was required to repay the related collateralized debt with a face amount of $9.0 million.  For both the second quarter and first six months of 2010, the company recognized a loss on prepayment of debt of $1.6 million ($1.0 million net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  The loss was offset by a gain on the sale of this property of $1.7 million included in restructuring, integration, and other charges in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
26


Interest and Other Financing Expense

Net interest and other financing expense increased by 13.3% in the second quarter of 2010 to $19.4 million compared with $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2009, primarily due to higher average debt outstanding.

Net interest and other financing expense decreased by 4.2% in the first six months of 2010 to $38.4 million compared with $40.1 million in the first six months of 2009, primarily due to lower interest rates on the company’s variable rate debt.

Income Taxes

The company recorded a provision for income taxes of $53.9 million and $94.1 million (an effective tax rate of 31.7% for both periods) for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively.  The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges and loss on the prepayment of debt.  Excluding the impact of the above-mentioned items, the company's effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was 31.6% and 31.5%, respectively.

The company recorded a provision for income taxes of $14.1 million and $25.9 million (an effective tax rate of 40.0% and 35.1%) for the second quarter and first six months of 2009, respectively.  The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 was impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges.  Excluding the impact of the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges, the company's effective tax rate for both the second quarter and first six months of 2009 was 31.6%.

The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate are impacted by, among other factors, the statutory tax rates in the countries in which it operates and the related level of income generated by these operations.

Net Income Attributable to Shareholders

The company recorded net income attributable to shareholders of $116.2 million and $203.2 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared with net income attributable to shareholders of $21.1 million and $47.8 million in the year-earlier periods.  Included in net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 were the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges of $4.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively.  Also included in net income attributable to shareholders for both the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was the previously discussed loss on prepayment of debt of $1.0 million. Included in net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 were the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges of $16.1 million and $32.2 million, respectively. Excluding the above-mentioned items, the increase in net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was primarily the result of the sales increases in both the global components business segment and the global ECS business segment, increased gross profit margins, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales due to the company's continuing efforts to streamline and simplify processes, and a lower effective income tax rate.  These increases were offset, in part, by increased net interest and other financing expense for the second quarter of 2010 compared with the year-earlier period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $576.7 million and $1.14 billion, respectively.

During the first six months of 2010, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $217.5 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $212.0 million, and the net amount

27


of cash used for financing activities was $80.8 million.  The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $50.0 million.

During the first six months of 2009, the net amount of cash provided by the company's operating activities was $537.0 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $71.5 million, and the net amount of cash used for financing activities was $11.0 million.  The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was an increase of $2.6 million.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The company maintains a significant investment in accounts receivable and inventories.  As a percentage of total assets, accounts receivable and inventories were approximately 64.8% and 58.4% at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first six months of 2010 was $217.5 million and was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable and inventory offset, in part, by earnings from operations, adjusted for non-cash items, and an increase in accounts payable.

The net amount of cash provided by the company's operating activities during the first six months of 2009 was $537.0 million primarily due to earnings from operations, adjusted for non-cash items, and a reduction in accounts receivable and inventory, offset, in part, by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Working capital as a percentage of sales was 11.7% in the second quarter of 2010 compared with 12.6% in the second quarter of 2009.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2010 was $212.0 million, primarily reflecting $172.4 million of cash consideration paid for acquired businesses and $56.6 million for capital expenditures, offset, in part, by proceeds from the sale of facilities of $17.0 million.  Included in capital expenditures for the first six months of 2010 is $33.6 million related to the company's global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") initiative.

During the first six months of 2010, the company acquired Verical Incorporated, an ecommerce business geared towards meeting the end-of-life components and parts shortage needs of customers, Converge, a leading provider of reverse logistics services, and Sphinx Group Limited, a United Kingdom-based value-added distributor of security and networking solutions, for cash consideration of $169.3 million.  In addition the company made a payment of $3.1 million to increase its ownership interest in a majority-owned subsidiary.

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2009 was $71.5 million, primarily reflecting $72.4 million for capital expenditures, which includes $51.3 million of capital expenditures related to the company's global ERP initiative, offset, in part, by proceeds from the sale of facilities of $1.2 million.

During 2006, the company initiated a global ERP effort to standardize processes worldwide and adopt best-in-class capabilities.  Implementation is expected to be phased-in over the next several years.  For the full year 2010, the estimated cash flow impact of this initiative is expected to be in the $40 to $60 million range with the impact decreasing by approximately $10 million in 2011.  The company expects to finance these costs with cash flows from operations.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The net amount of cash used for financing activities during the first six months of 2010 was $80.8 million. The primary use of cash for financing activities included $81.2 million of repurchases of common stock, and a $7.8 million decrease in short-term and other borrowings. The primary sources of cash from

28


financing activities during the first six months of 2010 were $6.4 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $1.7 million related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation arrangements.

The net amount of cash used for financing activities during the first six months of 2009 was $11.0 million. The primary use of cash for financing activities during the first six months of 2009 included a $7.5 million decrease in short-term and other borrowings, a $2.2 million shortfall in tax benefits from stock-based compensation arrangements, and $2.1 million of repurchases of common stock.  The primary source of cash from financing activities was $.8 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

The company has an $800.0 million revolving credit facility with a group of banks that matures in January 2012.  Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a euro currency rate plus a spread based on the company's credit ratings (.425% at July 3, 2010). The facility fee related to the credit facility is .125%.

The company has a $300.0 million asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its North American subsidiaries which expires in March 2011. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread, which is based on the company's credit ratings (.60% at July 3, 2010). The facility fee is .50%.

The company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility or asset securitization program at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009.  Both programs include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings, limit the company's ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock, and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 3, 2010 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.

Management believes that the company's current cash availability, its current borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and asset securitization program, its expected ability to generate future operating cash flows, and the company's access to capital markets are sufficient to meet its projected cash flow needs for the foreseeable future.

Contractual Obligations

The company has contractual obligations for long-term debt, interest on long-term debt, capital leases, operating leases, purchase obligations, and certain other long-term liabilities that were summarized in a table of Contractual Obligations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Since December 31, 2009, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations of the company, outside the ordinary course of the company’s business.

Share-Repurchase Program

In March 2010, the company announced its Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $100 million of the company's common stock in such amounts as to offset the dilution from the granting of equity-based compensation awards.  As of July 3, 2010, the company repurchased 2,662,112 shares under this plan with a market value of $75.0 million at the dates of repurchase.

On July 27, 2010, the company's Board of Directors approved an additional repurchase of up to $100 million of the company's common stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The company has no off-balance sheet financing or unconsolidated special purpose entities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  The company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis.  The company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There were no significant changes during the first six months of 2010 to the items disclosed as Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk .

There were no material changes in market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates from the information provided in Item 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, except as follows:

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $369.6 million and $294.9 million, respectively. The fair values of foreign exchange contracts, which are nominal, are estimated using market quotes.  The translation of the financial statements of the non-United States operations is impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.  The change in consolidated sales and operating income was impacted by the translation of the company's international financial statements into U.S. dollars.  This resulted in increased sales and operating income of $21.3 million and $.9 million, respectively, for the first six months of 2010, compared with the year-earlier period, based on 2009 sales and operating income at the average rate for 2010.  Sales and operating income would decrease by approximately $266.0 million and $11.5 million, respectively, if average foreign exchange rates declined by 10% against the U.S. dollar in the first six months of 2010.  These amounts were determined by considering the impact of a hypothetical foreign exchange rate on the sales and operating income of the company's international operations.

In May 2006, the company entered into a cross-currency swap, with a maturity date of July 2011, for approximately $100.0 million or €78.3 million (the "2006 cross-currency swap").  In October 2005, the company entered into a cross-currency swap, with a maturity date of October 2010, for approximately $200.0 million or €168.4 million (the "2005 cross-currency swap").  These cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges and hedge a portion of the company's net investment in euro-denominated net assets, by effectively converting the interest expense on $300.0 million of long-term debt from U.S. dollars to euros.  During the second quarter of 2010, the company paid $2.3 million, plus accrued interest, to terminate these cross-currency swaps.  The 2006 cross-currency swap and the 2005 cross-currency swap had a negative fair value at December 31, 2009 of $12.5 million and $41.9 million, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

At July 3, 2010, approximately 58% of the company's debt was subject to fixed rates, and 42% of its debt was subject to floating rates.  A one percentage point change in average interest rates would not materially impact net income attributable to shareholders for the first six months of 2010. This was determined by considering the impact of a hypothetical interest rate on the company's average floating rate on investments and outstanding debt.  This analysis does not consider the effect of the level of overall economic activity that could exist.  In the event of a change in the level of economic activity, which may adversely impact interest rates, the company could likely take actions to further mitigate any potential negative exposure to the change.  However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that might be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in the company's financial structure.

31


In June 2004 and November 2009, the company entered into interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional amount of $275.0 million.  The swaps modify the company's interest rate exposure by effectively converting a portion of the fixed 6.875% senior notes to a floating rate, based on the six-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread (an effective rate of 4.37% and 4.18% at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively), through its maturity.  The swaps are classified as fair value hedges and had a fair value of $14.7 million and $9.6 million at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures .

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of July 3, 2010 (the "Evaluation"). Based upon the Evaluation, the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company's internal control over financial reporting.

Transition of Enterprise Resource Planning System

On July 6, 2010, the company completed the process of installing a new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system in a select operation in Europe as part of a phased implementation schedule.  This new ERP system, which will replace multiple legacy systems of the company, is expected to be implemented globally over the next several years.  The implementation of this new ERP system involves changes to the company’s procedures for internal control over financial reporting. The company follows a system implementation life cycle process that requires significant pre-implementation planning, design, and testing.  The company has conducted and will continue to conduct extensive post-implementation monitoring and process modifications to ensure that internal controls over financial reporting are properly designed, and the company has not experienced any significant difficulties in results to date in connection with the implementation or operation of the new ERP system.
32


Item 1A. Risk Factors .

Except as set forth below, there were no material changes to the company's risk factors as discussed in Item 1A - Risk Factors in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009:

Add the following additional risk factor:

We have and may continue to pursue acquisitions and investments in businesses outside our traditional core distribution business.

We have made, and may continue to make acquisitions of, or investments, in new services, businesses or technologies to expand our current service offerings and product lines.  Some of these may involve risks that may differ from those traditionally associated with our core distribution business, including undertaking product or service warranty responsibilities that in our traditional core business would generally reside primarily with our suppliers.  If we are not successful in mitigating or insuring against such risks, they could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business.

With respect to the risk factor titled " The company may not have adequate or cost-effective liquidity or capital resources ", the company stated in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 that it had access to committed credit lines of $1.4 billion.  The company now has access to committed credit lines of $1.1 billion.

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

In March 2010, the company announced its Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $100 million of the company's common stock (the "2010 Share Repurchase Program") in such amounts as to offset the dilution from the granting of equity-based compensation awards.

On July 27, 2010, the company's Board of Directors approved an additional repurchase of up to $100 million of the company's common stock.
