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") 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 audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Quarter End

The company operates on a quarterly calendar that closes on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on previously reported amounts.

Note B – Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU No. 2018-15"). ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop internal-use software. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2018-15. The adoption is not expected to be material to the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) ("ASU No. 2017-12"). ASU No. 2017-12 simplifies certain aspects of hedge accounting and results in a more accurate portrayal of the economics of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. On January 1, 2019, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2017-12 on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2017-12 did not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) ("ASU No. 2016-13"). ASU No. 2016-13 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, and in April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments. These ASU's provide supplemental guidance and clarification to ASU No. 2016-13 and must be adopted concurrently with the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, cumulatively referred to as “Topic 326.” Topic 326 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of Topic 326.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU No. 2016-02"). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the entity to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting expense recognition in the income statement. In July 2018 the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01 Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases.

(Dollars in thousands except per share data)

(Unaudited)

These ASU's provide supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to ASU No. 2016-02, and must be adopted concurrently with the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, cumulatively referred to as “Topic 842”.

On January 1, 2019, the company adopted Topic 842 applying the optional transition method, which allows an entity to apply the new standard at the adoption date with a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. In addition, the company elected a package of practical expedients and the short-term lease exception outlined in Topic 842. The company also implemented internal controls and key systems to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. As a result of adopting Topic 842, the company recognized assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by operating leases, refer to Note L.

Note C – Significant Accounting Policies

Except for the changes below, no material changes have been made to the company's significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on February 7, 2019, for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Leases

The company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception based on whether it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. Substantially all of the company's leases are classified as operating leases. The company has determined that operating lease right-of-use assets will be recorded to "Other assets" and lease liabilities will be recorded to "Other liabilities" and "Accrued expenses" in the consolidated balance sheets. Lease expense will be recorded to "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of operations. Operating lease payments will be recorded to "Operating cash flows" in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the net present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term starting on the commencement date. The company generally is not able to determine the rate implicit in its leases and, as such, will apply an incremental borrowing rate based on the company’s cost of borrowing for the relevant terms of each lease. Lease expense for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease terms may include an option to extend or terminate a lease if it is reasonably certain that the company will exercise such options. The company has elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components, and also has elected not to record a right-of-use asset or lease liability for leases which, at inception, have a term of twelve months or less. Variable lease payments are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

Note D – Acquisitions

2018 Acquisitions

In 2018, the company acquired eInfochips for a purchase price of $327,628, which included $14,769 of cash acquired. eInfochips services customers at every phase of technology deployment, including custom hardware and software, and new Internet of Things based business models. eInfochips is recorded in the company's global components business segment.

Note E – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. The company tests goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist.

Goodwill of companies acquired, allocated to the company's business segments, is as follows:

The carrying amount of the company's short-term borrowings in various countries, revolving credit facility, asset securitization program, commercial paper, and other obligations approximate their fair value.

The company has a $2,000,000 revolving credit facility maturing in December 2023. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness, acquisitions, and as support for the company's commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a Eurocurrency rate plus a spread (1.18% at March 30, 2019), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 3.56% at March 30, 2019. The facility fee, which is based on the company's credit ratings, was .20% of the total borrowing capacity at March 30, 2019. The company had $55,000 in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at March 30, 2019. The company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2018.

The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $1,200,000 under the asset securitization program, which matures in June 2021. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation ("AFC"), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for true sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate plus a spread (.40% at March 30, 2019), or an effective interest rate of 2.94% at March 30, 2019. The facility fee is .40% of the total borrowing capacity.

At March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the company had $1,090,000 and $810,000, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program, which was included in "Long-term debt" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Total collateralized accounts receivable of approximately $2,436,800 and $2,754,400, respectively, were held by AFC and were included in "Accounts receivable, net" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Any accounts receivable held by AFC would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings before repayment of any outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program.

Both the revolving credit facility and asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of March 30, 2019 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.

During 2018, the company redeemed $300,000 principal amount of its 3.00% notes due March 2018.

In the normal course of business, certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Financing costs related to these transactions were not material and are included in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $14,045 and $9,255 for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note I – 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 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.

The following table presents assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 30, 2019:



	Balance Sheet Location	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Cash equivalents (a)	Cash and cash equivalents/ other assets	$	21,738	$	—		$	—	$	21,738

(a)	Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of less than three months.


(b)	The company has an 8.4% equity ownership interest in Marubun Corporation and a portfolio of mutual funds with quoted market prices. The company recorded an unrealized gain of $1,824 and an unrealized loss of $2,579 for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively, on equity securities held at the end of each quarter.

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate primarily to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets (see Note D and E). The company tests these assets for impairment if indicators of potential impairment exist or at least annually if indefinite lived.

Derivative Instruments

The company uses various financial instruments, including derivative instruments, for purposes other than trading. Certain derivative instruments are designated at inception as hedges and measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Derivative instruments not designated as hedges are marked-to-market each reporting period with any unrealized gains or losses recognized in earnings.

Interest Rate Swaps

The company occasionally 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 company uses the hypothetical derivative method to assess the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges on a quarterly basis. The change in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges is recorded as a change to the carrying value of the related hedged debt, and the change in fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in the shareholders' equity section in the company's consolidated balance sheets in "Accumulated other comprehensive income." As of March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all outstanding interest rate swaps were designated as fair value hedges.

The terms of our outstanding interest rate swap contracts at March 30, 2019 are as follows:

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The company’s foreign currency exposure relates primarily to international transactions where the currency collected from customers can be different from the currency used to purchase the product. The company’s transactions in its foreign operations are denominated primarily in the following currencies: Euro, British Pound, Indian Rupee, Canadian Dollar, and Chinese Renminbi. 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 related to these transactions. 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 are estimated using market quotes. The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts at March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $867,361 and $607,747, respectively.

Gains and losses related to non-designated foreign currency exchange contracts are recorded in "Cost of sales" in the company's consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses related to foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in "Cost of sales," "Selling, general, and administrative expenses," and "Interest and other financing expense, net" based upon the nature of the underlying hedged transaction, in the company's consolidated statements of operations and were not material for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018.

During the first quarter of 2019, the company entered into a series of foreign exchange contracts to sell Euro and buy United States Dollars, with various maturity dates as noted in the table below.



Maturity Date		Notional Amount
March 2023		EUR 50,000
September 2024		EUR 50,000
April 2025		EUR 100,000
January 2028		EUR 100,000
Total		EUR 300,000

The contracts above have been designated as a net investment hedge which is in place to hedge a portion of the company's net investment in subsidiaries with euro-denominated net assets. The change in the fair value of derivatives designated as net investment hedges will be recorded in "foreign currency translation adjustment" ("CTA") within "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness will be included in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company's consolidated statements of operations.

Note N – Contingencies

Environmental Matters

In connection with the purchase of Wyle in August 2000, the company acquired certain of the then outstanding obligations of Wyle, including Wyle's indemnification obligations to the purchasers of its Wyle Laboratories division for environmental clean-up costs associated with any then existing contamination or violation of environmental regulations. Under the terms of the company's purchase of Wyle from the sellers, the sellers agreed to indemnify the company for certain costs associated with the Wyle environmental obligations, among other things. In 2012, the company entered into a settlement agreement with the sellers pursuant to which the sellers paid $110,000 and the company released the sellers from their indemnification obligation. As part of the settlement agreement, the company accepted responsibility for any potential subsequent costs incurred related to the Wyle matters. The company is aware of two Wyle Laboratories facilities (in Huntsville, Alabama and Norco, California) at which contaminated groundwater was identified and will require environmental remediation. In addition, the company was named as a defendant in several lawsuits related to the Norco facility and a third site in El Segundo, California which have now been settled to the satisfaction of the parties.

The company expects these environmental liabilities to be resolved over an extended period of time. Costs are recorded for environmental matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for environmental liabilities are adjusted periodically as facts and circumstances change, assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental liabilities are difficult to assess and estimate due to various unknown factors such as the timing and extent of remediation, improvements in remediation technologies, and the extent to which environmental laws and regulations may change in the future. Accordingly, the company cannot presently fully estimate the ultimate potential costs related to these sites until such time as a substantial portion of the investigation at the sites is completed and remedial action plans are developed and, in some instances, implemented. To the extent that future environmental costs exceed amounts currently accrued by the company, net income would be adversely impacted and such impact could be material.

Accruals for environmental liabilities are included in "Accrued expenses" and "Other liabilities" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. The company has determined that there is no amount within the environmental liability range that is a better estimate than any other amount, and therefore has recorded the accruals at the minimum amount of the ranges.

As successor-in-interest to Wyle, the company is the beneficiary of various Wyle insurance policies that covered liabilities arising out of operations at Norco and Huntsville. To date, the company has recovered approximately $37,000 from certain insurance carriers relating to environmental clean-up matters at the Norco site. The company is considering the best way to pursue its potential claims against insurers regarding liabilities arising out of operations at Huntsville. The resolution of these matters will likely take several years. The company has not recorded a receivable for any potential future insurance recoveries related to the Norco and Huntsville environmental matters, as the realization of the claims for recovery are not deemed probable at this time.

Environmental Matters - Huntsville

In February 2015, the company and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management ("ADEM") finalized and executed a consent decree in connection with the Huntsville, Alabama site. Characterization of the extent of contaminated soil and groundwater is complete and has been approved by ADEM. Approximately $6,300 was spent to date and the company currently anticipates no additional investigative and related expenditures. The nature and scope of subsequent remediation at the site has not yet been determined, but assuming the outcome includes source control and certain other measures, the cost is estimated to be between $4,100 and $10,000.

Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.

Environmental Matters - Norco

In October 2003, the company entered into a consent decree with Wyle Laboratories and the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (the "DTSC") in connection with the Norco site. In April 2005, a Remedial Investigation Work Plan was approved by DTSC that provided for site-wide characterization of known and potential environmental issues. Investigations performed in connection with this work plan and a series of subsequent technical memoranda continued until the filing of a final Remedial Investigation Report early in 2008. Work is under way pertaining to 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. In 2008, a hydraulic containment system ("HCS") was installed to capture and treat groundwater before it moves into the adjacent offsite area. In September 2013, the DTSC approved the final Remedial Action Plan ("RAP") and work is currently progressing under the RAP. The approved RAP included the potential for additional remedial action after the five year review of the HCS if the review found that contaminants were not sufficiently reduced in the offsite area. The HCS five year review submitted to DTSC in December 2016 identified significant reductions in contaminants offsite except in a key area identified in the RAP. This exception triggered the need for additional offsite remediation that began in 2018.

Approximately $71,100 was spent to date on remediation, project management, regulatory oversight, and investigative and feasibility study activities. The company currently estimates that these activities will give rise to an additional $10,800 to $21,500. Project management and regulatory oversight include costs incurred by project consultants for project management and costs billed by DTSC to provide regulatory oversight.

Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work under the RAP is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.

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 materially impact the company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

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 has one of the world’s broadest portfolios of product offerings available from leading electronic components and enterprise computing solutions suppliers, coupled with a range of services, solutions, and tools that help industrial and commercial customers introduce innovative products, reduce their time to market, 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") and managed service providers ("MSPs") through its global ECS business segment. For the first quarter of 2019, approximately 73% of the company's sales were from the global components business segment and approximately 27% of the company's sales were from the global ECS business segment.

The company's financial objectives are to grow sales faster than the market, increase the markets served, grow profits faster than sales, and increase return on invested capital. To achieve its 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 and value-added service offerings, increase its market penetration, and expand its geographic reach.

Executive Summary

Consolidated sales for the first quarter of 2019 increased by 4.1% compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2019 was driven by a increase in the global components business segment sales of 5.3% and a increase in the global ECS business segment sales of 0.9%. Adjusted for the change in foreign currencies and dispositions consolidated sales increased 7.6% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period.

Net income attributable to shareholders increased to $140.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to $139.1 million in the year-earlier period. The following items impacted the comparability of the company's results:


•	restructuring, integration, and other charges of $11.7 million in 2019 and $21.2 million in 2018;


•	identifiable intangible asset amortization of $11.9 million in 2019 and $13.5 million in 2018;


•	net gain on investments of $5.3 million in 2019 and net loss on investments of $2.5 million in 2018;


•	loss on disposition of businesses, net, of $0.9 million in 2019 and $1.6 million in 2018; and


•	Impact of U.S. tax reform of $3.5 million in 2019.

Excluding the aforementioned items, net income attributable to shareholders for the first quarter of 2019 decreased to $158.5 million compared with $167.7 million in the year-earlier period.

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 discloses certain non-GAAP financial information, including:

•

Sales, income, or expense items as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as "impact of changes in foreign currencies") by re-translating prior period results at current period foreign exchange rates and the impact of dispositions by adjusting the company's operating results for businesses disposed, as if the dispositions had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented (referred to as "impact of dispositions");


•	Operating income as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, and loss on disposition of businesses, net; and


•	Net income attributable to shareholders as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, loss on disposition of businesses, net, gain (loss) on investments, net, and the impact of U.S. tax reform.

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company's operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

Sales

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



	Quarter Ended
	March 30, 2019			March 31, 2018			% Change

Consolidated sales, as reported	$	7,156		$	6,876		4.1	%

Impact of changes in foreign currencies	—			(67		)
Impact of dispositions	(11		)	(41		)
Global ECS sales, as adjusted	$	1,953		$	1,838		6.3	%

Consolidated sales for the first quarter of 2019 increased by $280.4 million, or 4.1% compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2019 was driven by an increase in global components business segment sales of $262.0 million, or 5.3%, and a increase in global ECS business segment sales of $18.4 million, or 0.9%. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions, consolidated sales increased 7.6% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period.

In the global components business segment, sales for the first quarter of 2019 increased $262.0 million, or 5.3% compared with the year-earlier period, with the growth spread across all three regions. The increase during the first quarter of 2019 is attributable to suppliers awarding additional business to the company and demand growth for lower cost commodity parts. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies, the company's global components business segment sales increased by 8.2% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period.

In the global ECS business segment, sales for the first quarter of 2019 increased $18.4 million, or 0.9% compared with the year-earlier period. The increase during the first quarter of 2019 is primarily attributable to demand growth in servers, infrastructure software, storage, and security. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions, the company's global ECS business segment sales increased 6.3% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with year-earlier period.

Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions, gross profit increased 3.4% in the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period. Gross profit margins in the first quarter of 2019 decreased by approximately 60 bps compared with the year-earlier period primarily due to unfavorable product mix.

Included in depreciation and amortization expense is identifiable intangible asset amortization of $11.9 million for the first quarter of 2019 compared to $13.5 million in the year-earlier period. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions, operating expenses increased 3.4% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period.

Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges

Restructuring initiatives relate to the company's continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency. Integration costs are primarily related to the integration of acquired businesses within the company's pre-existing business and the consolidation of certain operations.

2019 Charges

The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $11.7 million for the first quarter of 2019, which includes $3.0 million related to initiatives taken by the company during 2019 to improve operating efficiencies, $1.0 million of acquisition-related expenses, and $5.6 million in charges related to relocation and other centralization efforts to maximize operating efficiencies. The restructuring and integration charge of $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2019 relates primarily to the termination of personnel.

2018 Charges

The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $21.2 million for the first quarter of 2018, which includes $11.4 million related to initiatives taken by the company during 2018 to improve operating efficiencies and acquisition-related expenses of $6.2 million.

Operating Income

Following is an analysis of operating income (in millions):

* The sum of the components for consolidated operating income, as adjusted, may not agree to totals, as presented, due to rounding.

The company recorded operating income of $245.6 million, or 3.4% of sales in the first quarter of 2019 compared with operating income of $236.0 million, or 3.4% of sales in the year-earlier period. Excluding identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, and loss on disposition of businesses, net, operating income, as adjusted, was $270.0 million, or 3.8% of sales in the first quarter of 2019 compared with operating income, as adjusted, of $272.2 million, or 4.0% of sales in the year-earlier period. Operating income, as adjusted, decreased 0.8% for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period, on a sales increase of 4.1% compared with the year-earlier period. Operating income, as adjusted as a percentage of sales, decreased 20 bps for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period.

Operating income growth was in line with sales growth for the first quarter of 2019 compared with the year-earlier period, due to the company's ability to efficiently manage operating costs. Operating margin decreases from both the global components and global ECS businesses were partially offset by lower spending from corporate.

Gain (Loss) on Investments, Net

During the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, the company recorded a gain of $5.3 million and a loss of $2.5 million related to changes in fair value of certain investments, respectively.

Interest and Other Financing Expense, Net

The company recorded net interest and other financing expense of $52.0 million for the first quarter of 2019 compared with $45.2 million in the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2019 was primarily due to higher average debt outstanding and an increase in variable interest rates.

Income Tax

Income taxes for the interim periods presented have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. The determination of the consolidated provision for income taxes requires management to make certain judgments and estimates. Changes in the estimated level of annual pre-tax earnings, tax laws, and changes resulting from tax audits can affect the overall effective income tax rate, which impacts the level of income tax expense and net income. Judgments and estimates related to the company’s projections and assumptions are inherently uncertain; therefore, actual results could differ from projections.

For the first quarter of 2019, the company recorded a provision for income taxes of $53.9 million and an effective tax rate of 27.5%. The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2019 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges, identifiable intangible asset amortization, loss on disposition of businesses, the impact of U.S. tax reform, and gain on investments. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2019 was 25.6%.

For the first quarter of 2018, the company recorded a provision for income taxes of $46.6 million and an effective tax rate of 25.0%. The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2018 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges, identifiable intangible asset amortization, loss on disposition of businesses, and loss on investments. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2018 was 25.1%.

The company’s effective tax rate deviates from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate mainly due to the mix of foreign taxing jurisdictions in which the company operates and where its foreign subsidiaries generate taxable income. The increase in the effective tax rate from 25.0% for the first quarter of 2018 to 27.5% for the first quarter of 2019 is primarily driven by the change in mix of the tax jurisdictions where taxable income is generated, discrete items, and changes in the U.S. tax rules.

Net income attributable to shareholders, as adjusted, was $158.5 million for the first quarter of 2019 compared with $167.7 million in the year-earlier period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $351.9 million and $509.3 million, respectively, of which $336.2 million and $394.4 million, respectively, were held outside the United States. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the company's business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world. It is the company's current intent to permanently reinvest these funds outside the United States and its current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund its United States operations. If these funds were needed for the company's operations in the United States, the company would be required to pay withholding and other taxes related to distribution of these funds. Additionally, local government regulations may restrict the company's ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances. The company currently does not expect such regulations and restrictions to impact its ability to make acquisitions or to conduct operations throughout the global organization.

During the first quarter of 2019, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $329.0 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $30.9 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $180.8 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was an increase of $21.7 million.

During the first quarter of 2018, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $75.1 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $336.4 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $235.5 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $5.4 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 69.1% at March 30, 2019 and 72.1% at December 31, 2018.

The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first quarter of 2019 was $329.0 million and was primarily due to the timing of inventory purchases early in the quarter coupled with lower demand levels and slower payments by customers later in the quarter.

The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first quarter of 2018 was $75.1 million and was primarily due to an increase in working capital to support the increase in sales, offset, in part, by an increase in earnings from operations adjusted for non-cash items.

Working capital as a percentage of sales, which the company defines as accounts receivable, net, plus inventory, net, less accounts payable, divided by annualized sales, was 19.6% in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 17.6% in the first quarter of 2018.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of 2019 was $30.9 million. The uses of cash from investing activities included $33.8 million for capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2019 are related to investments in internally developed software and website functionality related to the digital business.

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of 2018 was $336.4 million. The uses of cash from investing activities included $331.5 million for cash consideration paid for acquired businesses and $34.7 million for capital expenditures. The sources of cash from investing activities included $34.3 million of proceeds from the sale of businesses. Included in capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2018 was $7.4 million related to the company's ERP system. The company completed the implementation of its new ERP system during Q1 2018.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of 2019 was $180.8 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $107.2 million of net payments from short-term borrowings and $53.9 million of repurchases of common stock. The sources of cash from financing activities during the first quarter of 2019 were $335.0 million of net proceeds from long-term bank borrowings and $6.9 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of 2018 was $235.5 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $300.0 million of payments for the redemption of notes, $52.5 million of repurchases of common stock, and $18.4 million of net payments from short-term borrowings. The sources of cash from financing activities during the first quarter

of 2018 were $601.4 million of proceeds from long-term bank borrowings and $5.0 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

During March 2018, the company redeemed $300.0 million principal amount of the its 3.00% notes due March 2018.

The company has a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in December 2023. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness, acquisitions, and as support for the company's commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a Eurocurrency rate plus a spread (1.18% at March 30, 2019), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 3.56% at March 30, 2019. The facility fee, which is based on the company's credit ratings, was .20% of the total borrowing capacity at March 30, 2019. The company had $55.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at March 30, 2019. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2018. During the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, the average daily balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility was $43.0 million and $69.4 million, respectively.

The company has a commercial paper program and the maximum aggregate balance of commercial paper outstanding may not exceed the borrowing capacity of $1.2 billion. The company had $74.8 million in outstanding borrowings under this program at March 30, 2019 and no outstanding borrowings under this program at December 31, 2018. During the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, the average daily balance outstanding under the commercial paper program was $836.0 million and $664.8 million, respectively. The program had a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.98% at March 30, 2019.

The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries, which matures June 2021. The company may borrow up to $1.2 billion under the asset securitization program. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation ("AFC"), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for true sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate plus a spread (.40% at March 30, 2019), or an effective interest rate of 2.94% at March 30, 2019. The facility fee is .40% of the total borrowing capacity. The company had $1.1 billion and $810.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program at March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, the average daily balance outstanding under the asset securitization program was $1.1 billion and $794.7 million, respectively.

The company has $200.0 million in uncommitted lines of credit. There were no outstanding borrowings and $180.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted lines of credit at March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These borrowings were provided on a short-term basis and the maturity is agreed upon between the company and the lender. The lines had a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.49% at March 30, 2019. During the first quarter of 2019 and 2018, the average daily balance outstanding under the uncommitted lines of credit was $9.7 million and $13.6 million, respectively.

In the normal course of business, certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly, they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Financing costs related to these transactions were not material and are included in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Management believes that the company's current cash availability, its current borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and asset securitization program, and its expected ability to generate future operating cash flows are sufficient to meet its projected cash flow needs for the foreseeable future. The company also may issue debt or equity securities in the future and management believes the company will have adequate access to the capital markets, if needed. The company continually evaluates its liquidity requirements and would seek to amend its existing borrowing capacity or access the financial markets as deemed necessary.

Contractual Obligations

The company has contractual obligations for short-term and long-term debt, interest on short-term and 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, 2018. Since December 31, 2018, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations of the company outside the ordinary course of the company’s business.

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 quarter of 2019 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, 2018 (See Note B and C).

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note B and Note C of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the anticipated dates of adoption and the effects on the company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.
