In the first quarter of 2024, sales decreased 21 percent year

compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Global Components
“While the industry’s cyclical correction is ongoing, we are
beginning to see improvement in leading indicators with customer
inventory levels declining, our book-to-bill ratios for both
semiconductors and IP&E improving in all regions and our
backlog continuing to trend towards more normal levels. From an
end-market perspective, we saw relative strength in transportation
in the Americas, aerospace and defense in EMEA, and consumer
verticals in Asia,” said Mr. Kerins.

the first quarter, and in North America, we continued to make
progress in the market for IT-as-a-service. Looking forward we’re

and chief financial officer. “Efficient working capital management
enabled us to reduce inventory by $390 million in the first quarter
and more than $1 billion over the past two quarters. Our strong
cash flow generation continued to provide us with ample financial
flexibility, and we also repurchased approximately $100 million of
shares in the quarter.”

Information Relating to Forward-Looking
Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking” statements, as the
term is defined under the federal securities laws, including but
not limited to statements regarding: Arrow’s future financial
performance, including its outlook on financial results for the
second quarter of fiscal 2024 such as sales, net income per diluted
share, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, average tax rate,
average diluted shares outstanding, interest and other expense,
impact to sales due to changes in foreign currencies, intangible
amortization expense per diluted share, restructuring &
integration charges per diluted share, and expectations regarding
market demand and shareholder returns. These and other
forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions,
risks, and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or facts
to differ materially from such statements for a variety of reasons,
including, but not limited to: unfavorable economic conditions;
disruptions or inefficiencies in the supply chain; political
instability; impacts of military conflict and sanctions; industry
conditions; changes in product supply, pricing and customer demand;
competition; other vagaries in the global components and the global
ECS markets; deteriorating economic conditions, including economic
recession, inflation, tax rates, foreign currency exchange rates,
or the availability of capital; the effects of natural or man-made
catastrophic events; changes in relationships with key suppliers;
increased profit margin pressure; changes in legal and regulatory
matters; non-compliance with certain regulations, such as export,
antitrust, and anti-corruption laws; foreign tax and other loss
contingencies; breaches of security or privacy of business
information; outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or public health
crises; and the company's ability to generate positive cash flow.
For a further discussion of these and other factors that could
cause the company's future results to differ materially from any
forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors”
in the company's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the
company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in
other filings the company makes with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date on which they are made. The company
undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any of the
forward-looking statements.
Certain Non-GAAP Financial
Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States (“GAAP”), the company also provides certain non-GAAP
financial information. The company provides the following non-GAAP
metrics: sales, gross profit, operating income (including by
business segment), income before income taxes, provision for income
taxes, consolidated net income, noncontrolling interests, net
income attributable to shareholders, effective tax rate and net
income per share on a diluted basis. The foregoing non-GAAP
measures are adjusted by certain of the following, as applicable:
impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as “changes in
foreign currencies” or “on a constant currency basis”) by
re-translating prior-period results at current period foreign
exchange rates; identifiable intangible asset amortization,
restructuring, integration, and other charges; net gains and losses
on investments; and impact of wind down to inventory. Management
believes that providing this additional information is useful to
the reader to better assess and understand the company’s operating
performance and future prospects in the same manner as management,
especially when comparing results with previous periods. Management
typically monitors the business as adjusted for these items, in
addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating
results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting purposes,
for short- and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate the
company's financial performance. However, analysis of results on a
non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, in conjunction
with, and not as a substitute for, data presented in accordance
with GAAP. For further discussion of our non-GAAP measures and
related adjustments, refer to the section entitled “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations” in the company's most recent Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q and the company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
