Business. 

PART I 

ScanSource, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries referred to as “the Company” or “ScanSource” or “we”) is at the center of the 
technology solution delivery channel, connecting businesses and providing solutions for their complex needs. Using a channel 
sales model, we provide technology solutions and services from the world’s leading suppliers of point-of-sale (POS), payments, 
barcode, physical security, unified communications and collaboration, telecom and cloud services to our customers. 

Our customers are businesses of all sizes that sell to end-customers across many industries. Our customer channels include value-
added resellers (“VARs”), sales partners or agents, independent sales organizations (“ISOs”) and independent software vendors 
(“ISVs”). These customer channels provide us with multiple routes-to-market. We align our teams, tools and processes around 
all of our customers to help them grow through reducing their costs, creating efficiencies and generating end-customer demand 
for business solutions. We enable our customers to create, deliver and manage solutions for end-customers across almost every 
vertical market in the United States, Canada, Brazil, additional Latin American countries and Europe. 

ScanSource was incorporated in South Carolina in 1992 and serves approximately 38,000 customers. Net sales for fiscal year 
ending June 30, 2019 totaled $3.9 billion. Our common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol 
“SCSC.” 

Strategy 

We rely on a channel sales model to offer hardware, software, services and connectivity from technology suppliers to our sales 
partners  (resellers,  agents,  ISOs,  ISVs)  to  solve  end-customer  needs.  While  we  do  not  manufacture  products,  we  provide 
technology solutions and services from leading technology suppliers. Our solutions may include a combination of offerings from 
multiple  suppliers  or  access  to  additional  services,  such  as  custom  configuration,  key  injection,  integration  support  custom 
development and other services, to deliver solutions. We also offer the flexibility of on-premise, cloud or hybrid solutions for 
their end-customers. 

As a trusted adviser to our sales partners, we provide more complete solutions through a better understanding of end-customer 
needs. In addition, we drive growth through enhancing our sales partners' capabilities to provide hardware, software, services and 
connectivity solutions to meet these needs. Our teams deliver value-added support programs and services, including education 
and training, assessments, provisioning, implementation, custom development and marketing, designed to help our sales partners' 
develop new technology practices and reach new end-customers and deliver new solutions to their current customers. 

Part of our strategy is to expand in higher margin and adjacent markets to help our sales partners offer more products and services 
while building recurring revenue opportunities. In fiscal 2020, we acquired intY and its CASCADE cloud services distribution 
platform. With intY’s CASCADE solution, we are providing our sales partners with another route to market to enable key strategic 
cloud services. In fiscal 2019, we acquired Canpango, a global Salesforce implementation and professional services business with 
deep knowledge of customer relationship management ("CRM") and integration with telecom systems. With Canpango, we added 
capabilities to help our sales partners sell customer experience (CX) solutions, where CRM integrates with other communications 
offerings. In fiscal 2018, we acquired POS Portal, a leading provider of payments devices and services primarily to the small and 
medium-sized (“SMB”) business segment. POS Portal added to our offerings industry-leading services and capabilities in serving 
the U.S. payments channel. In fiscal 2017, we acquired Intelisys, an industry-leading technology services provider (also called a 
master  agent)  of  business  telecommunications  and  cloud  services.  Using  a  master  agent  business  model,  Intelisys  acts  as  an 
intermediary connecting sales partners with service providers and suppliers who offer services to end-customers. Intelisys’ sales 
partners  earn  commission  payments  from  those  service  providers  or  suppliers  on  end-customer  sales,  typically  multi-year 
contracts.  Intelisys  earns  a  percentage  of  the  commission  streams,  building  more  predictable,  recurring  revenues.  Since  our 
Intelisys business is a services model, the working capital requirements are very low and require no inventories.

Financial Strength 

Our consolidated balance sheet reflects financial strength. Our strong balance sheet and cash generated from our business provide 
us  with  the  ability  to  execute  our  capital  allocation  plan,  which  includes  organic  growth,  strategic  acquisitions  and  share 
repurchases. We have the financial flexibility to invest in our business and in future growth. 

Business Segments 

We  segment  our  business  into  two  technology-focused  areas  that  each  operate  in  the  U.S.,  Canada,  Brazil,  additional  Latin 
American countries, and Europe: 

•   Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security; and  
•   Worldwide Communications & Services.  

Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security Segment 

The  Worldwide  Barcode,  Networking  &  Security  portfolio  of  solutions  includes  enterprise  mobile  computing,  data  capture, 
barcode  printing,  POS,  payments,  networking,  electronic  physical  security,  cyber  security  and  other  technologies.  There  are 
adjacencies among these technologies to develop and deliver solutions for our customers. These solutions include data capture 
and POS solutions that interface with computer systems to automate the collection, processing and communication of information 
for commercial and industrial applications, including retail sales, distribution, shipping, inventory control, materials handling, 

2 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
warehouse management and health care applications. Electronic physical security products include identification, access control, 
video surveillance, intrusion-related and wireless and networking infrastructure products. 

The Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security segment includes the fiscal 2016 acquisition of KBZ, which specializes in video 
conferencing, services, and cloud, and the fiscal 2018 acquisition of POS Portal. 

Worldwide Communications & Services Segment 

The Worldwide Communications & Services portfolio of solutions includes communications technologies and services for voice, 
video  conferencing,  wireless,  data  networking,  cyber  security,  cable,  unified  communications  and  collaboration,  cloud  and 
technology  services.   As  these  solutions  come  together  on  IP  networks,  new opportunities  are  created  to  move  into  adjacent 
solutions for all vertical markets, such as education, healthcare and government. 

The Worldwide Communications & Services segment includes the fiscal 2015 acquisition of Network1, a leading value-added 
distributor of communications technologies, infrastructure solutions, digital networks and cyber security in Latin America, the 
fiscal 2017 acquisition of Intelisys, the fiscal 2019 acquisitions of Canpango and RPM, a business process software developer, 
and the fiscal 2020 acquisition of intY. 

Customers 

Our  customers,  or  sales  partners  are  businesses  of  all  sizes  that  sell  to  end-customers  across  industries  ranging  from 
manufacturing,  warehouse  and  distribution,  retail  and  e-commerce,  hospitality,  transportation  and  logistics,  government, 
education and health care, among others. Our customers provide us  with multiple routes-to-market through  various channels, 
including: VARs, agents, ISOs, and ISVs. No single customer accounted for more than 5% of our total net sales for the fiscal year 
ended June 30, 2019. 

VARs 

Within VARs, our customers include specialty technology VARs, direct marketers, IT system integrators and service providers. 
Specialty technology VARs focus on one or more technologies, providing specialized knowledge and expertise for technology 
solutions, such as tailored software or integrated hardware. Direct marketers provide a very broad range of technology brands to 
business, government, education and healthcare markets. IT system integrators develop computer and networking solutions for 
end-customers’ IT needs. Service providers deliver advanced multi-discipline services with customized solutions that bundle data, 
collaboration, cloud, network and digital telecommunication services for end-customers' needs. 

Agents 

Agents focus on selling telecommunications and cloud services to end-customers, advising about various services, technologies 
and cost alternatives to help them make informed choices. Agents typically earn monthly commissions on multi-year contract 
sales as they build their recurring revenue business. 

Independent Sales Organizations 

ISOs focus on selling credit card processing and finding new merchant customers for credit card member banks. They offer on-
going customer service and support and look to bundle hardware, software and processing services. 

Independent Software Vendors 

ISVs  develop  software,  apps  and  integrated  solutions.  They  generally  focus  on  cloud  solutions  and  sell  or  certify  bundled 
hardware, software and service solutions.

Suppliers 

We  provide  products  and  services  from  approximately  550  suppliers,  including Axis, AudioCodes, Avaya,  Barco,  Bematech, 
Bosch, CenturyLink/Level 3, Cisco, Comcast Business, Datalogic, Dell, Elo, Epson, Exacq, Extreme, Fortinet, Hanwha, HID, 
Honeywell,  HP/Aruba,  IBM,  Ingenico,  Jabra,  Lifesize,  Microsoft,  Milestone,  Mitel,  NCR,  Panasonic,  Pioneer, 
Plantronics/Polycom (Poly), RingCentral, Ruckus, Samsung, Spectralink, Spectrum, Star Micronics, Toshiba Global Commerce 
Solutions, Ubiquiti, Verifone, Verizon, Windstream, Yealink and Zebra Technologies.  We also offer customers significant choices 
in cloud services through our Intelisys business and our intY cloud services distribution platform, including offerings in contact 
center, infrastructure, unified communications, security, and Microsoft offerings. 

We provide products and services from many of our key suppliers in all of our geographic markets; however, certain suppliers 
only  allow  distribution  to  specific  geographies.  We  typically  purchase  products  directly  from  the  supplier  and  our  supplier 
agreements  generally  do  not  restrict  us  from  selling  similar  or  competitive  products  or  services.  We  have  the  flexibility  to 
terminate or curtail sales of one product line in favor of another due to technological change, pricing considerations, product 
availability, customer demand or supplier distribution policies. 

Products from two suppliers, Cisco and Zebra, each constituted more than 10% of our net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 
2019. 

•   We  have  two  non-exclusive  agreements  with  Cisco.  One  agreement  covers  the  distribution  of  Cisco  products  in  the 
United States and has a two year term; and one agreement covers distribution of products in Brazil and has a two year 
term. Each of these agreements must be renewed by written agreement. Either party may terminate the agreement upon 
30 days' notice to the other party. 

•   We have two non-exclusive agreements with Zebra. One agreement covers sales of Zebra products in North and South 
America, and the other agreement covers sales of Zebra products in Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"). The 
Zebra agreements each have a one year term that automatically renews for additional one year terms, and either party 
may terminate the agreement upon 30 days' notice to the other party.  

In  addition  to  the  agreements  mentioned  above,  we  have  written  agreements  with  almost  all  of  our  other  suppliers.  These 
agreements generally include the following terms: 

•   Non-exclusive distribution rights to resell products and related services in geographical areas (vendor agreements often 

include territorial restrictions that limit the countries in which we can sell their products and services). 

•   Short-term periods, subject to periodic renewal, and provide for termination by either party without cause upon 30 to 

120 days' notice. 

•   Stock rotation rights, which give us the ability, subject to limitations, to return for credit or exchange a portion of the 

items purchased. 

•   Price protection provisions, which enables us to take a credit for declines in inventory value resulting from the vendor's 

price reductions.  

Along  with  our  inventory  management  policies  and  practices,  these  stock  rotation  rights  and  price  protection  provisions  are 
designed to reduce our risk of loss due to slow-moving inventory, vendor price reductions, product updates and obsolescence. 

We participate in various rebate, cash discount and cooperative marketing programs offered by our suppliers to support expenses 
associated  with  selling  and  marketing  the  suppliers'  products  and  services.  These  rebates  and  purchase  discounts  are  largely 
influenced by sales volumes and are subject to change. 

Our suppliers generally warrant their products we sell and allow returns of defective products, including those returned to us by 
our  customers.  For  three  of  our  product  offerings,  we  offer  a  self-branded  warranty  program.  We  purchase  contracts  from 
unrelated third parties, generally the original equipment manufacturers, to fulfill our obligations to service or replace defective 

4 

 
 
 
 
 
 
product claimed on these warranty programs. To maintain customer relations, we also facilitate returns of defective products from 
our  customers  by  accepting  for  exchange,  with  our  prior  approval,  most  defective  products  within  30  days  of  invoicing.  In 
addition, local laws may in some cases impose warranty obligations on the Company. 

Offerings and Markets 

We currently market over 100,000 products from approximately 550 hardware, software and service suppliers to approximately 
38,000 customers. We sell products and services to the U.S. and Canada from our facilities located in Mississippi, California and 
Kentucky; into Brazil and other parts of Latin America principally from facilities located in Florida, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia 
and Chile; and into Europe principally from facilities located in Belgium, France and the United Kingdom. See "Risk Factors," 
for  a  discussion  of  the  risks  related  to  our  foreign  operations.  We  also  have  drop-shipment  arrangements  with  some  of  our 
suppliers, which allow us to offer products to customers without taking physical delivery at our facilities. These drop-shipment 
arrangements represent approximately 17% of fiscal year 2019 net sales. 

Our  offerings  to  our  customers  include  hardware,  software,  services  and  connectivity  from  leading  technology  suppliers, 
including the flexibility of on-premise, cloud and hybrid solutions. We believe that sales partners want to offer end-customers 
complete  technology  solutions  that  solve  real  business  needs  and  drive  business  outcomes.  We  align  our  teams,  tools,  and 
processes to help our sales partners grow by providing more complete solutions through a better understanding of end-customers’ 
need. We may provide a combination of offerings from multiple suppliers or give our sales partners access to additional services, 
such as configuration, key injection, integration support and others to deliver solutions. 

We provide our sales partners and suppliers an array of pre-sale business tools and value-added services, including market and 
technology  solution  expertise,  education  and  training,  product  configuration  tools,  technical  support,  logistics  and  channel 
financial services. These services allow our sales partners to gain knowledge and experience on marketing, negotiation and selling, 
to improve customer service, to profitably grow their business and be more cost effective. Our business is enhanced by our ability 
and our willingness to provide the extra level of services that keeps both our sales partners and our suppliers satisfied. 

We bring technology solutions and services that include the following offerings: 

•   POS: We provide POS solutions for retail, grocery and hospitality environments to efficiently manage in-store sales and 
operations. POS solutions include computer-based terminals, tablets, monitors, payment processing solutions, receipt 
printers,  pole  displays,  cash  drawers,  keyboards,  peripheral  equipment  and  fully  integrated  processing  units.  These 
solutions may include self-service checkout, kiosks and products that attach to the POS network in the store, including 
network access points, routers and digital signage. 

•   Payments: We offer payment terminals, comprehensive key injection services, reseller partner branding, extensive key 
libraries,  ability  to  provide  point-to-point  encryption  (“P2PE”),  and  redundant  key  injection  facilities.  We  have  the 
resources to deliver secure payment devices that are preconfigured and ready for use. In addition, we partner with ISVs 
to deliver to merchants integrated tablet POS solution hardware that a merchant may purchase outright or “as a service,” 
and which includes merchant hardware support and next-day replacement of tablets, terminals and peripherals. 

•   Barcode: We offer automatic identification and data capture (“AIDC”) technology that incorporates the capabilities for 
electronic identification and data processing without the need for manual input. These solutions consists of a wide range 
of products that include portable data collection terminals, wireless products, bar code label printers and scanners. As 
AIDC  technology  has  become  more  pervasive,  applications  have  evolved  from  traditional  uses,  such  as  inventory 
control, materials handling, distribution, shipping and warehouse management, to more advanced applications, such as 
health care. 

•   Physical Security: We provide electronic physical security  solutions  that include identification, access control,  video 
surveillance and intrusion-related products and networking infrastructure.  Physical security products are used every day 

5 

 
 
 
 
 
 
across every vertical market to protect lives, property and information. These technology solutions require specialized 
knowledge to deploy effectively, and we offer in-depth training and education to our sales partners to enable them to 
maintain the appropriate skill levels. 

•   Unified Communications and Collaboration: We provide unified communications and collaboration capabilities, such 
as voice, video, audio conferencing, web conferencing and messaging. These offerings combine  voice, data, fax and 
speech  technologies  with  computers,  telecommunications  and  the  internet  to  deliver  communications  solutions  on-
premise, from the cloud and as a hybrid. Software and hardware products include IP-based telephony platforms, Voice 
over  Internet  Protocol  ("VoIP")  systems,  private  branch  exchanges  (“PBXs”),  call  center  applications,  video 
conferencing,  desk  phones  and  other  endpoints.  Cloud-delivered  services,  such  as  unified  communications,  contact 
center and video conferencing, enable end-customers to consume and pay for communications services typically on a 
monthly subscription basis. 

•   Cloud  and  Telecom  Services:  We  offer  business  communications  services,  including  voice,  data,  access,  cable 
collaboration,  wireless  and  cloud.  We  focus  on  empowering  and  educating  sales  partners  so  they  can  advise  end-
customers in making informed choices about services, technology and cost savings. With the CASCADE cloud services 
platform, we offer sales partners another way to grow their recurring revenue practices. CASCADE takes the friction 
out  of acquiring,  provisioning  and  managing  XaaS  offerings.  We  have  contracts  with  more  than  150  of  the  world’s 
leading telecom carriers and cloud services providers. 

Our People 

The strength of our Company is our people, working together to help our customers grow their businesses. As of June 30, 2019, 
we had more than 2,700 employees, of which approximately 1,600 are in the United States and 1,100 are located internationally 
in Canada, Brazil, other parts of Latin America and Europe. We have no organized labor or trade unions in the United States. We 
consider our relations with our employees to be good. 

Competition 

We  believe  we  are  a  leader  in  the  specialty  markets  we  serve.  The  market  for  technology  products  and  solutions  is  highly 
competitive,  both  in  the  United  States  and  internationally.  Competitive  factors  include  price,  product  availability,  speed  and 
accuracy  of  delivery,  effectiveness  of  sales  and  marketing  programs,  credit  availability,  ability  to  tailor  specific  solutions  to 
customer needs, quality and breadth of product lines and services, and availability of technical and product information. 

Our competitors include local, regional, national and international distributors, as well as suppliers that sell directly to resellers 
and to end-customers. In addition, our competitors include master resellers that sell to franchisees, third-party dealers and end-
customers. Certain current and potential competitors  have greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than  we 
have and may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Certain 
smaller, regional competitors,  who are specialty two-tier or  mixed  model  master resellers,  may also  be able  to respond more 
quickly to new or emerging technologies and local or regional changes in customer requirements from the specialized market 
focus. Competition has increased over the last several years as broad line and other value-added distributors have entered into the 
specialty technology markets. Such competition could also result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share. 

In our Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security segment, we compete with broad-line distributors, such as Ingram Micro, 
Synnex and Tech Data in most geographic areas, and more specialized security distributors, such as ADI and Anixter. Additionally, 
we  also  compete  against  other  smaller,  more  specialized AIDC  and  POS  distributors,  such  as Azerty,  BlueStar,  Jarltech  and 
Nimax.  In  our Worldwide  Communications  &  Services  segment,  we  compete  against  broad-line  distributors,  such  as  Ingram 
Micro,  Synnex  and  Tech  Data,  and  more  specialized  distributors,  such  as  Jenne  and  Westcon.  Additionally,  for  Intelisys' 
technology services, we also compete against other smaller, master agents, such as Avant and Telarus. For our intY business, we 
compete against other small developers of cloud software and services platforms such as CloudBlue and Pax8. As we seek to 

6 

 
 
 
 
 
expand  our  business  into  other  areas  closely  related  to  our  offerings,  we  may  encounter  increased  competition  from  current 
competitors and/or from new competitors, some of which may be our current sales partners.

Our  sales  department  consists  of  inside  and  field  sales  representatives  located  in  the  United  States,  Canada,  Brazil,  Chile, 
Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Poland and Spain. The majority of 
our sales partners are assigned to a dedicated sales representative or team whose main focus is developing customer relationships 
and providing the sales partners with the solutions to meet their end-customer’s needs. Our sales teams are advocates for and 
trusted advisers to our sales partners. Sales teams are often responsible for developing technical expertise within broad product 
markets, recruiting sales partners, creating demand, negotiating pricing and reviewing overall product and service requirements 
of our sales partners. Our sales representatives receive comprehensive training  with respect to the technical characteristics of 
suppliers’ products, supplemented by frequent product and service seminars conducted by vendor representatives and bi-weekly 
meetings among product, marketing and sales managers. 

Our sales teams also provide sales partners with online ordering, API, EDI and other information systems, allowing sale partners 
to easily gain access to product specifications, availability, and customized pricing, as well as the ability to place and follow the 
status of orders. 

Marketing 

We market our technology solutions and services through a range of digital and print channels, including online product catalogs 
customized  for  our  North  American,  Brazilian,  other  Latin  American  and  European  markets;  social  media;  search  engine 
optimization and  marketing;  content  marketing; content  automation;  e-commerce;  email direct  marketing, among others.  Our 
marketing practices are tailored to fit the specific needs of our sales partners and suppliers - ensuring we help our partners create, 
deliver and manage solutions for end-customers across our vertical markets. Our comprehensive marketing efforts include sales 
promotions, advertisements, management of sales leads, trade show design and event management, advertorials, content creation, 
partner events, and training and certification courses with leading suppliers in an effort to recruit prospective sales partners. 

Operations 

Information Technology Systems 

Starting in 2015, we rolled-out a new, global SAP information system designed to replace the current existing systems. This new 
system is currently operating in the U.S. and Canada, excluding Intelisys, POS Portal and RPM; in Europe, excluding intY; and 
Latin America, excluding Brazil. Our information systems are scalable and capable of supporting numerous operational functions 
including  purchasing,  receiving,  order  processing,  shipping,  inventory  management  and  accounting.  Our  sales  partners  and 
employees rely on our information systems for on-line, real-time information on pricing, inventory availability and reservation 
and order status. Our warehouse operations use bar code technology for receiving and shipping and automated systems for freight 
processing and shipment tracking, each of which is integrated with our multiple information systems. The customer service and 
technical support departments employ systems for documentation and faster processing of sales partner inquiries. To ensure that 
adequate  inventory  levels  are  maintained,  our  buyers  depend  on  the  system’s  purchasing  and  receiving  functions  to  track 
inventory on a perpetual basis. 

Warehouse and Shipping Strategy 

We operate a 741,000 square foot distribution center in Southaven, Mississippi, which is located near the FedEx hub facility in 
Memphis,  Tennessee,  and  serves  primarily  all  of  North America.  We  also  acquired  warehouses  in  California  and  Kentucky 
through our POS Portal acquisition. Our European operations utilize a limited number of distribution centers located in Belgium, 
France and the United Kingdom. Warehouses for our Brazil and other Latin American operations are located in Florida, Mexico, 
Brazil, Colombia and Chile. Our objective is to ship all orders on the same day,  using technology to expedite shipments and 

7 

 
 
minimize shipping errors. We offer reduced  freight  rates  and flexible  delivery options  to  minimize  a  sales  partner’s  need  for 
inventory. 

Financial Services 

Our sales terms compete within our specific geographic areas to facilitate various third-party financing options, which include 
leasing, flooring and other secured financing for qualified sales partners. We believe this policy reduces the sales partner’s need 
to establish multiple credit relationships. 

Trade and Service Marks 

We  conduct  our  business  under  the  trade  names  "ScanSource  POS  and  Barcode,"  "ScanSource  Catalyst,"  "ScanSource 
Communications," "ScanSource Services," "ScanSource Networking and Security," "ScanSource KBZ," "ScanSource Europe," 
"ScanSource  Europe  Communications,"  "ScanSource  Latin  America,"  "ScanSource  de  Mexico,"  "ScanSource  Brasil," 
"ScanSource Imago," "Network1, a ScanSource company," "Intelisys," "POS Portal," "Canpango," "RPM Software, a ScanSource 
company" and "intY, a ScanSource company." 

Certain of our tradenames, trademarks and service marks are registered, or are in the process of being registered, in the United 
States  or  various  other  countries.    We  have  been  issued  registrations  for  many  of  our  marks  including,  among  others, 
"ScanSource,"  "Catalyst  Telecom,"  and  "Network1"  in  countries  in  our  principal  markets. Even  though  our  marks  are  not 
registered in every country where we conduct business, in many cases we have acquired rights in those marks because of our 
continued use of them. These marks do not have value assigned to them and have a designated indefinite life. We do not believe 
that our operations are dependent upon any of our marks. We also sell products and provide services under various third-party 
tradenames, trademarks and service marks, some of which we reference in this report, and these tradenames, trademarks, and 
service marks are the property of their respective owners. 

Additional Information 

Our principal internet address is www.scansource.com. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website 
is not incorporated by reference into this annual report. We provide our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form

ITEM 1A. 

Risk Factors. 

The following are certain risks that could affect our business, financial position and results of operations. These risks should be 
considered  in  connection  with  evaluating  an  investment  in  our  company  and,  in  particular,  the  forward-looking  statements 
contained in this Report because these risks could cause the actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-
looking statements. Additionally, there are other risks which could impact us that we may not describe, because we currently do 
not perceive them to be material or because they are presently unknown. If any of these risks develops into actual events, our 
business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected, the market price of our common stock could 
decline and you may lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or 
revise any risk factors, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. 

International operations - Our international operations expose us to risks that are different from, and possibly greater than, 
the risks we are exposed to domestically. 

We currently have significant facilities outside the United States, and a substantial portion of our revenue is derived from our 
international operations. These operations are subject to a variety of risks that are different from the risks that we face domestically 
or are similar risks but with potentially greater exposure. These risks include: 

8 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
•   Fluctuations of foreign currency and exchange rates, which can impact sales, costs of the goods we sell and the reporting 

of our results and assets on our financial statements; 

•   Changes in international trade laws, trade agreements, or trading relationships affecting our import and export activities, 
including  export  license  requirements,  restrictions  on  the  export  of  certain  technology  and  tariff  changes,  or  the 
imposition of new or increased trade sanctions;  

•   Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods; 
•   Changes in, or expiration of, various foreign incentives that provide economic benefits to us; 
•   Labor laws or practices that impact our ability and costs to hire, retain and discharge employees; 
•   Difficulties in staffing and managing operations in foreign countries; 
•   Changes in the interpretation and enforcement of laws (in particular related to items such as duty and taxation), and laws 

related to data privacy such as GDPR and other similar privacy laws that impact our IT systems and processes; 

•   Global economic and financial market instability related to the U.K.’s referendum withdrawal from the E.U., as well as 

instability from the possibility of withdrawal of other E.U. member states: 

•   Potential political and economic instability and changes in governments; 
•   Compliance with foreign and domestic import and export regulations and anti-corruption laws, including the Iran Threat 
Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, U.K. Bribery Act, and similar laws 
of other jurisdictions, governing our business activities outside the United States, the violation of which could result in 
severe penalties, including monetary fines, criminal proceedings and suspension of export or import privileges; and 
•   Terrorist or military actions that result in destruction or seizure of our assets or suspension or disruption of our operations 

or those of our customers, suppliers or service providers. 

We currently transact business in the U.K.,  where  we  also  have offices  and a  distribution  center, and in key E.U.  markets. A 
majority of U.K. voters voted for the U.K. to exit the E.U. (“Brexit”). Negotiations have commenced to determine the future 
terms of the U.K.’s relationship with the E.U., including the terms of trade between the U.K. and the E.U. and the rest of the 
world. The effects of Brexit  will depend on any agreements  the  U.K.  makes  to retain access to  E.U.  markets  either during a 
transitional period or more permanently. The measures could potentially disrupt the markets we serve and the tax jurisdictions in 
which we operate and adversely change tax benefits or liabilities in these or other jurisdictions. Changes resulting from these 
measures,  including  access  to  free  trade  agreements,  tariffs  and  customs  and  currency  fluctuations  and  may  cause  us  to  lose 
customers, suppliers and employees and adversely affect our financial condition. 

We have substantial operations in Brazil and other Latin American countries and face risks related to these countries' complex 
tax,  labor,  trade  compliance  and  consumer  protection  laws  and  regulations. Additionally,  developing  markets  such  as  Brazil, 
Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru have greater political volatility and vulnerability to infrastructure and labor disruptions, are 
more likely to experience market and interest rate fluctuations and may have higher inflation. In addition, doing business in these 
countries  poses  additional  challenges,  such  as  finding  and  retaining  qualified  employees,  particularly  management-level 
employees,  navigating  underdeveloped  infrastructure  and  identifying  and  retaining  qualified  suppliers,  resellers,  agents  and 
service providers, among other risks. Furthermore, in developing markets it may be common for others to engage in business 
practices prohibited by laws and regulations applicable to us, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, U.K. Bribery Act, 
or similar local anti-bribery laws. Our commitment to legal compliance could put us at a competitive disadvantage, and any lapses 
in our compliance could subject us to civil and criminal penalties that could materially and adversely affect our financial condition 
and results of operations. 

In addition, competition in developing markets is increasing. Our success in integrating our Brazilian operations is important to 
our  growth  strategy.  If  we  cannot  successfully  increase  our  business,  our  product  sales,  financial  condition  and  results  of 
operations could be adversely affected. As recently announced, we plan to exit our business in all Latin American countries (with 
the exception of Brazil). Before we exit, we are still subject to all risk associated with operating in those countries. 

Acquisitions  -  Our  growth  strategy  includes  acquisitions  of  companies  that  complement  or  expand  our  existing  business. 
Acquisitions involve unique risks and uncertainties. 

9 

 
 
 
 
 
We have acquired, and expect to continue to acquire, companies that complement or expand our existing business in the United 
States  and  internationally,  and  some  of  these  acquisitions  may  be  in  business  lines  where  we  have  little,  if  any,  experience.  
Acquisitions entail a number  of  risks, including that  the acquired company  will  not perform as  expected  and that  we  will be 
responsible for unexpected costs or liabilities.   In addition,  increases  in  the  size  and  complexity  of our  business  may  place a 
significant strain on our management, operations, technical performance, financial resources and internal financial control and 
reporting  functions,  and  there  are  no  assurances  that  we  will  be  able  to  manage  the  acquisition  process  or  newly  acquired 
companies effectively. It is not always possible to conduct an assessment of an acquired business’s internal control over financial 
reporting in the period between the consummation date and  the date of  management’s assessment. Any  failure  to implement 
required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause 
us to fail to meet our reporting obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. 

Our personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to effectively manage our future operations, especially as 
we employ personnel in multiple domestic and international locations. We may not be able to hire, train, retain and manage the 
personnel  required  to  address  our  growth.  Failure  to  effectively  manage  our  acquisition  opportunities  could  damage  our 
reputation, limit our future growth, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. 

Organic growth strategies -  If we fail to effectively manage and  implement our  operating  strategies,  we may  experience  a 
negative effect on our business and financial results. 

A significant component of our growth strategy is to expand our channels. Expansion of our existing products and services in our 
existing channels and entry into new channels may divert our resources and systems, require additional resources that might not 
be available (or available on acceptable terms), result in new or more intense competition, require longer implementation times 
or greater expenditures than anticipated and otherwise fail to achieve timely desired results, if at all. If we are unable to increase 
our sales and earnings by expanding our product and service offerings in a cost effective manner, our results may suffer. 

Our ability to successfully manage our organic growth will require continued enhancement of our operational, managerial and 
financial resources, controls, and model. Our failure to effectively manage our organic growth could have an adverse effect on 
our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

As recently announced, we have initiated a plan to sell our operations in additional Latin American countries (with the exception 
of Brazil) and our operations in Europe (with the exception of our digital businesses, including the acquisitions of intY, Canpango, 
and Intelisys Global). We may face administrative and regulatory hurdles in the process, the sale process may be longer than 
anticipated, we may not find a buyer for the operations and we may incur significant expenses in connection with the wind-down 
of our operations in excess of our estimates. If we are not successful in exiting our operations in those countries in a cost-effective 
manner, our revenues, results of operations and financial condition  may be adversely impacted. Reorienting our business and 
redeploying capital to focus on higher margin opportunities in our United States, Canadian and Brazilian businesses are designed 
to lead to longer-term value creation for our shareholders. 

Credit  exposure  - We  have  credit  exposure  to  our  customers. Any  adverse  trends  or  significant  adverse  incidents  in  their 
businesses could cause us to suffer credit losses. 

As is customary in our industry, we extend credit to our customers, and most of our sales are on open accounts. As we grow and 
compete for business, our typical payment terms tend to be longer, and therefore may increase our credit risk. 

While we evaluate our customers' qualifications for credit and monitor our extensions of credit, and in some instances purchase 
credit insurance, these efforts cannot prevent all credit losses and any credit losses negatively impact our performance. In addition, 
for financial reporting purposes, we estimate future credit losses and establish reserves.  To the extent that our credit losses exceed 
those reserves, our financial performance will be negatively impacted beyond what is expected. If there is deterioration in the 
collectability of our receivables, or if we are unable to collect under credit insurance policies, or if we fail to take other actions to 
adequately  mitigate  such  credit  risk,  our  earnings,  cash  flows  and  our  ability  to  utilize  receivable-based  financing  could 
deteriorate. 

10 

 
 
 
 
In addition, extending credit to international customers involves additional risks. It is often more difficult to evaluate credit risk 
with a customer or obtain credit protections in our international operations. Also, credit cycles and collection periods are typically 
longer  in  our  international  operations. As  a  result  of  these  factors  and  other  challenges  in  extending  credit  to  international 
customers, we generally face greater credit risk from international sales compared to domestic sales. 

As we implement our plan to sell our operations in additional Latin American countries (with the exception of Brazil) and in 
Europe (with the exception of our digital businesses, including the acquisitions of intY, Canpango, and Intelisys Global), we may 
face a heightened risk of credit losses in those geographies that could negatively impact our performance. 

Suppliers - Changes to supply agreement terms or lack of product availability from our suppliers could adversely affect our 
operating margins, revenues or the level of capital required to fund our operations. 

A significant percentage of our net sales relates to products we purchase from relatively few suppliers, including Cisco and Zebra. 
As a result of such concentration risk, terminations of supply or services agreements or a change in terms or conditions of sale 
from one or more of our key suppliers could adversely affect our operating margins, revenues or the level of capital required to 
fund our operations. Our suppliers have the ability to make adverse changes in their sales terms and conditions, such as reducing 
the level of purchase discounts and rebates they make available to us. We have no guaranteed price or delivery agreements with 
our suppliers. In certain product categories, limited price protection or return rights offered by our suppliers may have a bearing 
on the amount of product we are willing to stock. Our inability to pass through to our customers the impact of these changes, as 
well as if we fail to develop or maintain systems to manage ongoing supplier programs, could cause us to record inventory write-
downs or other losses and could have significant negative impact on our gross margins. 

We receive purchase discounts and rebates from some suppliers based on various factors, including goals for quantitative and 
qualitative  sales  or  purchase  volume  and  customer  related  metrics.  Certain  purchase  discounts  and  rebates  may  affect  gross 
margins. Many purchase discounts from suppliers are based on percentage increases in sales of products. Our operating results 
could be adversely impacted if these rebates or discounts are reduced or eliminated or if our suppliers significantly increase the 
complexity of their refund procedures and thus increase costs for us to obtain such rebates. 

Our ability to obtain particular products or product lines in the required quantities and our ability to fulfill customer orders on a 
timely basis is critical to our success.  Our suppliers  have  experienced product supply shortages  from time  to time due to the 
inability of certain of their suppliers to supply products on a timely basis. In addition, our dependence on a limited number of 
suppliers  leaves  us  vulnerable  to  having  an  inadequate  supply  of  required  products,  price  increases,  late  deliveries  and  poor 
product quality.  As a result, we have experienced, and may in the future continue to experience, short-term shortages of specific 
products or be unable to purchase our desired volume of products. Suppliers that currently distribute their products through us, 
may decide to shift to or substantially increase their existing distribution with other distributors, their own dealer networks, or 
directly to resellers or end-customers. Suppliers have, from time to time, made efforts to reduce the number of distributors with 
which they do business. This could result in more intense competition as distributors strive to secure distribution rights with these 
suppliers, which could have an adverse impact on our operating results. We cannot provide any assurances that suppliers will 
maintain  an  adequate  supply  of  products  to  fulfill  all  of  our  customer  orders  on  a  timely  basis.  Our  reputation,  sales  and 
profitability may suffer if suppliers are not able to provide us with an adequate supply of products to fulfill our customer orders 
on a timely basis or if we cannot otherwise obtain particular products or a product lines. 

Increasingly, our suppliers are combining and merging, leaving us with fewer alternative sources. Supplier consolidation may 
also lead to changes in the nature and terms of relationships with our suppliers.  Any loss or deterioration of a major supplier 
relationship could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Customers - We operate in a highly competitive environment and good customer relations are critical to our success. There 
can be no assurance that we will be able to retain and expand our customer relationships or acquire new customers. 

Meeting our customers' needs quickly and fairly is critical to our business success. Transactions with our customers generally are 
performed on a purchase order basis rather than under long term supply agreements. Therefore, our customers readily can choose 
to purchase from other sources. From time to time, we experience shortages in availability of some products from suppliers, and 

11 

 
 
 
 
this impacts customers' decisions regarding whether to make purchases from us. Anything that negatively influences customer 
relations also can negatively impact our operating results. 

Customer  consolidation  also  may  lead  to  changes  in  the  nature  and  terms  of  relationships  with  our  customers.    The  loss  or 
deterioration of a major customer relationship could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Competition - We experience intense competition in all of our markets. This competition could result in reduced margins and 
loss of our market share. 

Our markets are fiercely competitive. We compete on the basis of price, product and service availability, speed and accuracy of 
delivery, effectiveness of sales and marketing programs, credit availability and terms, ability to tailor solutions to the needs of 
our  customers,  quality  and  breadth  of  product  line  and  services,  and  availability  of  technical  and  product  information.  Our 
competitors  include  local,  regional,  national  and  international  distributors  as  well  as  hardware  and  service  suppliers  that  sell 
directly to resellers and to end-customers. In addition, we compete with master resellers that sell to franchisees, third party dealers 
and  end-customers.  Certain  of  our  current  and  potential  competitors  have  greater  financial,  technical,  marketing  and  other 
resources than we have and may be able to respond more quickly  to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer 
requirements. Certain smaller, regional competitors, that are specialty two-tier or mixed model master resellers, may be able to 
respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements in their regions. Competition has 
increased for our sales units as broad line and other value-added distributors have entered into the specialty technology markets. 
Such competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of our market share. 

As a result of intense price competition in our industry, our gross margins and our operating profit margins historically have been 
narrow, and we expect them to continue to be narrow in the future. To remain competitive, we may be forced to offer more credit 
or extended payment terms to our customers. This could result in an increase in our need for capital, increase our financing costs, 
increase our bad debt expenses and have an adverse impact on our results of operations. We may lose market share, or reduce our 
prices in response to the action of our competitors and thereby experience a reduction in our gross margins, or that we will remain 
in any geographical market where we do not believe we can earn appropriate margins. We expect continued intense competition 
as  current  competitors  expand  their  operations  and  new  competitors  enter  the  market.  Our  inability  to  compete  successfully 
against current and future competitors could cause our revenue and earnings to decline. 

Liquidity and capital resources - Market factors may increase the cost and availability of capital. Additional capital may not 
be available to us on acceptable terms to fund our working capital needs and growth. 

Our business requires significant levels of capital to finance accounts receivable and product inventory that is not financed by 
trade creditors. We have an increased demand for capital when our business is expanding, including through acquisitions and 
organic growth. Changes in payment terms with either suppliers or customers could also increase our capital requirements. We 
have  historically relied  upon  cash  generated  from operations,  borrowings  under  our revolving credit  facility and  secured  and 
unsecured borrowings to satisfy our capital needs and to finance growth. While we believe our existing sources of liquidity will 
provide sufficient resources to meet our current working capital and cash requirements, if we require an increase in capital to 
meet our future business needs or if we are unable to comply with covenants  under our borrowings, such capital may not be 
available  to  us  on  terms  acceptable  to  us,  or  at  all.  The  Amended  Credit  Agreement  includes  customary  representations, 
warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants. Specifically, our Leverage Ratio must be less 
than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 at all times. In addition, our Interest Coverage Ratio (as such term is defined in the Amended Credit 
Agreement)  must be at least  3.00:1.00 as of the end of each  fiscal quarter.  In the event of a  default, customary  remedies are 
available to the lenders, including acceleration and increased interest rates. 

In addition, the cost of borrowings under our existing sources of capital and any potential new sources of capital as a result of 
variable interest rates and the transition away from LIBOR may increase, which could have an adverse effect on our financial 
condition. Changes in how lenders rate our credit worthiness, as well as macroeconomic factors such as an economic downturn 
and global economic instability may restrict our ability to raise capital in adequate amounts or on terms acceptable to us, and the 
failure to do so could harm our ability to operate our business. 

12 

 
 
 
 
 
 
In addition, our cash and cash equivalents are deposited  with  various financial institutions located in the various countries in 
which we operate. We endeavor to monitor these financial institutions regularly for credit quality; however, we are exposed to 
risk of loss on such funds or we may experience significant disruptions in our liquidity needs if one or more of these financial 
institutions were to suffer bankruptcy or similar restructuring. 

Inventory - The value of our inventory may be adversely affected by market and other factors. 

Our business, like that of other distributors, is subject to the risk that the value of our inventory will be adversely affected by price 
reductions  by  manufacturers,  by  technological  changes  affecting  the  usefulness  or  desirability  of  our  products  or  by  foreign 
currency fluctuations. Most of our supplier agreements and most manufacturers’ policies have some price protection and stock 
rotation opportunities with respect to slow-moving or obsolete inventory items. However, these protections are limited in scope 
and do not protect against all declines in inventory value, excess inventory, or product obsolescence, and in some instances we 
may not be able to fulfill all necessary conditions or successfully manage such price protection or stock rotation opportunities. In 
addition,  these  protections  are  not  always  reflected  in  supplier  agreements  and  their  application  in  a  particular  situation  is 
dependent upon negotiations with our suppliers. As a result, occasionally we are required to write down the value of excess and 
obsolete inventory, and should any of these write-downs occur at a significant level, they could have an adverse effect on our 
business, financial condition or results of operations. 

People - If we cannot continue to hire and retain high quality employees, our business and financial results may be negatively 
affected. 

Our operating results could be adversely affected by increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover or increased 
salary and benefit costs. Our employees are important to our success and we are dependent in part on our ability to retain the 
services of our key management, sales, IT, operational, finance and administrative personnel. We have built our business on a set 
of core values, and we attempt to hire and retain employees who are committed to these values and our culture of providing 
exceptional  service to our customers and  suppliers.  In  order  to  compete and to  continue  to grow,  we  must  attract, retain and 
motivate employees, including those in executive, senior management, sales, marketing, logistics, technical support and other 
operating positions. 

Many of our employees work in small teams to provide specific services to customers and suppliers. They are trained to develop 
their  knowledge  of  products,  services,  programs  and  practices  and  customer  business  needs,  as  well  as  to  enhance  the  skills 
required to provide exceptional service and to manage our business. As they gain experience and develop their knowledge and 
skills,  our  employees  become  highly  desired  by  other  businesses.  Therefore,  to  retain  our  employees,  we  have  to  provide  a 
satisfying work environment and competitive compensation and benefits. 

Disruptive technology - We may not be able to respond and adapt to rapid technological changes, evolving industry standards 
or changing customer needs or requirements, and thus may become less competitive. 

The market for our products and services is subject to rapid technological change, evolving industry standards and changes in 
customer demand, which can contribute to the decline in value or obsolescence of inventory.  Although most of our suppliers 
provide us with certain protections from the loss in value of inventory (such as price protection and certain rights of return), we 
cannot be sure that such protections will fully compensate for any loss in value, or that the suppliers will choose to, or be able to, 
honor such agreements. 

Our ability and our supplier's ability to anticipate and react quickly to new technology trends and customer requirements is crucial 
to  our  overall  success,  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations.  If  our  suppliers  fail  to  evolve  their  product  and  service 
offerings, or if we fail to evolve our product and service offerings or engage with desirable suppliers in time to respond to, and 
remain ahead of, new technological developments, it would adversely affect our ability to retain or increase market share and 
revenues.  New technologies may emerge that quickly surpass the capabilities of the products we currently hold in inventory or 
have access to sell through our existing supplier network, and our customers may no longer view our product offerings as desirable 
or necessary, which could result in a reduction in our market share and ability to obtain sufficient profit margins.  Some of our 
competitors and our suppliers’ competitors  may be  better  at  adapting to  disruptive technology  or  entering new  markets.  Our 

13 

 
 
 
 
 
future success depends, in part, on our ability to adapt and manage our product offerings to meet customer needs at prices that 
our customers are willing to pay. 

IT  Systems  -  Our  ability  to  manage  our  business  and  monitor  results  is  highly  dependent  upon  information  and 
communication systems. A failure of these systems could disrupt our business. 

We  are  highly  dependent  upon  a  variety  of  computer  and  telecommunication  systems  to  operate  our  business,  including  our 
enterprise resource planning ("ERP") systems. As we are dependent upon our ability to gather and promptly transmit accurate 
information to key decision makers, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected if our 
information  systems do not  allow  us to transmit accurate information, even  for a short  period of  time.  Failure  to properly or 
adequately address these issues could impact our ability to perform necessary business operations, which could adversely affect 
our reputation, competitive position, business, financial condition and results of operations. 

In addition, the information systems of companies we acquire may not meet our standards or we may not be able to successfully 
convert them to provide acceptable  information on a timely  and  cost-effective  basis. Furthermore,  we  must attract  and  retain 
qualified people to operate our systems, expand and improve them, integrate new programs effectively with our existing programs 
and convert to new systems efficiently when required. Any disruption to our business due to such issues, or an increase in our 
costs to cover these issues that is greater than what we have anticipated, could have an adverse effect on our financial results and 
operations. 

Our customers rely on our electronic ordering and information systems as a source for product information, including availability 
and pricing. There can be no assurance that our systems will not fail or experience disruptions, and any significant failure or 
disruption of these systems could prevent us from making sales, ordering and delivering products and otherwise conducting our 
business. Many of our customers use our website to check real-time product availability, see their customized pricing and place 
orders. While our  website has not experienced  any  material  disruptions or security  breakdowns,  it  may in the  future  and any 
disruptions could harm our relationship with our suppliers, customers and other business partners. Any material disruption of our 
website  or  the  Internet  in  general  could  impair  our  order  processing  or  prevent  our  suppliers  and  customers  from  accessing 
information and cause us to lose business. 

Cyber security risk - Our reputation and business may be harmed from cyber security risk and we may be subject to legal 
claims if there is loss, disclosure or misappropriation of or access to our customers' or our business partners' or our own 
information or other breaches of our information security. 

We make extensive use of online services and centralized data processing, including through third-party service providers. The 
secure maintenance and transmission of customer information is a critical element of our operations. Our information technology 
and other systems that maintain and transmit customer or employee information or those of service providers or business partners 
may be compromised by a malicious third-party penetration of our network security, or that of a third-party service provider or 
business partner, or impacted by advertent or inadvertent actions or inactions by our employees, or those of a third-party service 
provider or business partner. With constant changes in the security landscape, experienced computer programmers and hackers 
may be able to penetrate our network security, or that of our third-party service providers, and misappropriate or compromise our 
confidential information, create system disruptions, or cause shutdowns. As a  result, our  customers' information  may  be lost, 
disclosed, accessed or taken without our customers' consent. 

We are subject to laws and regulations relating to customer privacy and the protection of personal information.  Any such loss, 
disclosure or misappropriation of, or access to, customers' or business partners' information or our information or other breach of 
such information security can result in legal claims or legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and actions, may 
have a serious impact on our reputation and may adversely affect our businesses, operating results and financial condition. 

Fair value measurement of contingent consideration, goodwill and other intangible assets - Changes in the fair value of the 
assets and liabilities measured at fair value could have a significant effect on our reported earnings. 

14 

 
 
 
 
 
 
We have structured several of our acquisitions with upfront payments and additional earnout payments. In accordance with ASC 
805, Business Combinations, a liability for the contingent consideration driven by an earn-out must be recorded at the onset of 
the purchase and must be revalued at every reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded as an adjustment 
to operating income. These changes can occur due to changes in estimated future financial results, the probabilities of achieving 
these results, the discount rate reflective of our creditworthiness and the market risk premium associated with the relevant market. 
Both gains and losses can occur due to changes in these fair value estimates, thus increasing volatility of our earnings. 

We have substantial goodwill.  On at least an annual basis, we are required to assess our goodwill and other intangible assets, 
including but not limited to customer relationships,  trademarks,  and  trade names, for  impairment. This includes  continuously 
monitoring events and circumstances that could trigger an impairment test outside of our annual impairment testing date in the 
fourth quarter of each year. Testing goodwill and other intangibles for impairment requires the use of significant estimates and 
other inputs outside of our control. If the carrying value of goodwill in any of our goodwill reporting units or other intangible 
assets  is  determined  to  exceed  their  respective  fair  values,  we  may  be  required  to  record  significant  impairment  charges.  In 
addition, our decision to dispose of certain of our operations may require us to recognize an impairment to the carrying value of 
goodwill and other intangible assets attendant to those operations. We are still evaluating the potential impacts of winding-down 
these operations. Any declines resulting in a goodwill impairment or long-lived asset impairment may result in material non-cash 
charges to our earnings. Impairment charges would also reduce our consolidated shareholders' equity and increase our debt-to-
total-capitalization ratio, which could negatively impact our credit rating and access to the public debt and equity markets. 

Economic weakness - Economic weakness and geopolitical uncertainty could adversely affect our results and prospects. 

Our  financial  results,  operations  and  prospects  depend  significantly  on  worldwide  economic  and  geopolitical  conditions,  the 
demand  for  our  products  and  services,  and  the  financial  condition  of  our  customers  and  suppliers.  Economic  weakness  and 
geopolitical  uncertainty  have  in  the  past  resulted,  and  may  result  in  the  future,  in  reduced  demand  for  products  resulting  in 
decreased  sales,  margins  and  earnings.  Economic  weakness  and  geopolitical  uncertainty  may  also  lead  us  to  impair  assets, 
including goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, take restructuring actions or adjust our operating strategy and 
reduce expenses in response to decreased sales or margins. We may not be able to adequately adjust our cost structure in a timely 
fashion, which may adversely impact our profitability. Uncertainty about economic conditions  may increase foreign currency 
volatility in markets in which we transact business, which may negatively impact our results. Economic weakness and geopolitical 
uncertainty also make it more difficult for us to manage inventory levels and/or collect customer receivables, which may result 
in provisions to create reserves, write-offs, reduced access to liquidity and higher financing costs. 

Foreign  currency  -  Our  international  operations  expose  us  to  fluctuations  in  foreign  currency  exchange  rates  that  could 
adversely affect our results of operations. 

We transact sales, pay expenses, own assets and incur liabilities in countries using currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Volatility 
in foreign exchange rates increase our risk of loss related to products and services purchased in a currency other than the currency 
in which those products and services are sold. We maintain policies to reduce our net exposure to foreign currency exchange rate 
fluctuations through the use of derivative financial instruments, however there can be no assurance that fluctuations in foreign 
currency  exchange  rates  will  not  materially  affect  our  financial  results.  Because  our  consolidated  financial  statements  are 
presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate our financial  statements into U.S.  dollars  at exchange rates  in effect during each 
reporting period. Therefore, increases or decreases in the exchanges rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies we transact 
in may positively or negatively affect our results of operations. In addition, unexpected and dramatic changes in foreign currency 
exchange rates may negatively affect our earnings from those markets. 

Centralized functions - We have centralized a number of functions to provide efficient support to our business. As a result, a 
loss or reduction of use of one of our locations would have an adverse effect on our business operations and financial results. 

In order to be as efficient as possible, we centralize a number of critical functions. For instance, we currently distribute products 
to the majority of North America from a single warehouse. Similarly,  for the primary business operations, we utilize a single 
information system based in the United States for the majority of our North American, Latin American and European operations, 
while  our  Brazilian  operations  have  separate  systems.  While  we  have  backup  systems  and  business  continuity  plans,  any 

15 

 
 
 
 
 
 
significant or lengthy interruption of our ability to provide these centralized functions as a result of natural disasters, security 
breaches or otherwise would significantly impair our ability to continue normal business operations. In addition, the centralization 
of  these  functions  increases  our  exposure  to  local  risks,  such  as  the  availability  of  qualified  employees  and  the  lessening  of 
competition for critical services, such as freight and communications. 

Reliance on third parties - We are dependent on third parties for some services, including the delivery of a majority of our 
products,  logistics  and  warehousing.  Changes  in  shipping  terms  or  the  failure  or  inability  of  our  third-party  shippers  to 
perform could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. 

We rely on third parties to perform certain services for our business and for our customers, which, if not performed by these third 
parties  in  accordance  with  the  terms  of  the  arrangement,  could  result  in  significant  disruptions  or  costs  to  our  organization, 
including monetary damages and an adverse effect on our customer relationships. 

In particular, we are dependent upon major shipping companies, including FedEx and UPS, for the shipment of our products to 
and  from  our  centralized  warehouses.  Changes  in  shipping  terms,  or  the  inability  of  these  third-party  shippers  to  perform 
effectively, could affect our responsiveness to our customers. From time to time, we have experienced significant increases in 
shipping costs due to increases in fuel costs. Increases in our shipping costs may adversely affect our financial results if we are 
unable to pass on these higher costs to our customers. 

In Europe, Brazil and other Latin American countries, we use third parties to provide warehousing and logistics services in order 
to provide cost-effective operations and scale in certain regions. The failure or inability of one or more of these third parties to 
deliver products from suppliers to us, or products from us to our customers, for any reason could disrupt our business and harm 
our reputation and operating results. We work closely with our third-party logistics and warehousing providers to anticipate issues, 
and also review public information regarding their financial health. However, issues may not be identified timely, which may lead 
to lack of or poor execution of services, loss or litigation. Additionally, deterioration of the financial condition of our logistical 
and  warehousing  providers  could  result  in  delayed  responsiveness  or  delivery  failure,  which  would  ultimately  affect  our 
responsiveness to our customers and thus may adversely affect our business, operations and financial performance. 

Increased government regulation - We may be subject to additional costs and subject to fines and penalties because certain 
governmental entities are end-customers of products that we sell. 

Certain of our customers sell our products to government entities, which requires us to comply with additional laws, regulations 
and  contractual  requirements  relating  to  how  we  conduct  business.    In  complying  with  such  laws,  regulations,  and  other 
requirements, we may incur additional costs.  In addition, non-compliance with such laws, regulations, and other requirements 
also may expose us to fines and penalties, including contractual damages or the loss of certain contracts or business.  We also 
may be subject to increased scrutiny and investigation into our business practices, which may increase operating costs and increase 
legal liability, as well as expose us to additional reputational risk. 

Failure to comply with environmental regulations - We are subject to various environmental regulations, and failing to comply 
with any requirements may adversely affect our business operations or financial results. 

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations addressing environmental and other impacts from 
product disposal, use of hazardous materials in products, recycling of products at the end of their useful life and other related 
matters. Compliance with these environmental laws may have a material adverse effect on our business. These laws include the 
Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive, ("RoHS"), RoHS Directive  2011/65/EU ("RoHS 2") and the European Union 
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive ("WEEE") as enacted by individual European Union countries and other 
similar legislation adopted in North America. These directives can make companies involved in the production or distribution of 
electrical  goods,  including  computers  and  printers,  responsible  for  collection,  recycling,  treatment  and  disposal  of  recovered 
products. In addition, these directives and similar legislation can have an impact on the types and design of products we are able 
to sell in jurisdictions that have adopted such restrictions. While we strive to ensure we are in compliance with all applicable 
regulations, certain of these regulations impose strict liability. Additionally, we may be held responsible for the prior activities of 
entities that we have acquired or will acquire in the future. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in substantial 

16 

 
 
 
 
 
 
costs,  fines  and  civil  or  criminal  sanctions,  as  well  as  third  party  claims  for  property  damage  or  personal  injury.  Further, 
environmental laws may become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties 
associated with violation, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Quarterly fluctuations - Our net sales and operating results are dependent on a number of factors. Our net sales will fluctuate 
from quarter to quarter, and these fluctuations may cause volatility in our stock price. 

Our net sales and operating results may fluctuate quarterly and, as a result our performance in one period may vary significantly 
from our performance in the preceding quarter, and may differ significantly from our forecast of performance from quarter to 
quarter. The impact of these variances may cause volatility in our stock price. Additionally, any past financial performance should 
not be considered an indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends 
in the future as our operating results may fluctuate significantly quarter to quarter. The results of any quarterly period are not 
indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year. 

Volatility of Stock Price - The trading price of our common stock fluctuates. 

The stock market as a whole and the trading prices of companies in the wholesale electronics industry have been volatile.  This 
broad market and industry volatility could significantly reduce the price of our common stock at any time, without regard to our 
own operating performance.  This volatility may affect the price at which you could sell your common stock.  Our stock price is 
likely to continue to be volatile and subject to price and volume fluctuations in response to market and other factors; variations 
in  our  quarterly  operating  results  from  our  expectations  or  those  of  securities  analysts  or  investors;  downward  revisions  in 
securities analysts’ estimates; and announcement by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, transactions, partnerships, 
joint ventures or capital commitments. 

A  material  decline  in  the  price  of  our  common  stock  may  result  in  the  assertion  of  certain  claims  against  us,  and/or  the 
commencement of inquiries and/or investigations against us.  A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result 
in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital, if needed, and the inability for 
you to obtain a favorable price at which you could sell your shares. 

Litigation - We routinely are involved in litigation that can be costly and lead to adverse results. 

In the ordinary course of our business, we are involved in a wide range of disputes, some of which result in litigation. We are 
routinely involved in litigation related to commercial disputes surrounding our business activities, intellectual property disputes, 
employment disputes and accounts receivable collection activity.  In addition, as a public company with a large shareholder base, 
we are susceptible to class-action lawsuits and other litigation resulting from disclosures that we make (or do not make) and our 
other activities. Litigation is expensive to bring and defend, and the outcome of litigation can be adverse and significant. Not all 
adverse outcomes can be anticipated, and applicable accounting  rules do  not always require  or permit the establishment of a 
reserve until a final result has occurred or becomes probable and estimable. In some instances we are insured or indemnified for 
the potential losses; in other instances we are not. An uninsured, under insured or non-indemnified adverse outcome in significant 
litigation could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We can make no assurances 
that we will ultimately be successful in our defense of any of these disputes. See Item 3. "Legal Proceedings" for further discussion 
of our material legal matters.

services  distribution  platform,  including  offerings  in  contact  center,  infrastructure,  unified  communications,  security,  and 
Microsoft offerings. 

Recent Developments 

On  August  20,  2019,  we  announced  plans  to  divest  our  physical  product  distribution  businesses  in  Europe,  UK,  Mexico, 
Colombia,  Chile,  Peru  and  our  Miami-based  export  operations.  We  will  continue  to  operate  our  digital  businesses  in  these 
locations, including the businesses acquired within the last year, intY, Canpango and Intelisys Global. The operations in these 
locations have been performing below our expectations. We are beginning the process to market and sell these businesses. There 
can be no assurance that this sale process will result in a transaction or the timing of any transaction.

On July 1, 2019, we acquired intY and its CASCADE cloud services distribution platform. As an additional element of the our 
cloud  and  digital  strategy,  intY’s  CASCADE  solution  provides  our  sales  partners  with  another  route  to  market  to  enable 
distribution  and  sales  opportunities  for  key  strategic  cloud  services.  IntY  joins  our  Worldwide  Communications  &  Services 
operating segment. 

Our Strategy 

We rely on a channel sales model offering hardware, software, services, and connectivity solutions from technology suppliers to 
sales partners that serve end customers. We sell technology solutions that solve end customer's business needs. While we do not 
manufacture  products,  we  provide  technology  solutions  and  services  from  leading  technology  suppliers.  Our  solutions  may 
include a combination of offerings from multiple suppliers or give our sales partners access to additional services, such as custom 
configuration, key injection, integration support, custom development and other services, to deliver solutions. We also offer the 
flexibility of on-premise, cloud and hybrid solutions. 

As a trusted adviser to our sales partners, we provide more complete solutions through a better understanding of end customer 
needs. We drive growth through enhancing our sales partners' capabilities to provide hardware, software, services and connectivity 
solutions to meet these needs. Our teams deliver value-added support programs and services, including education and training, 
network assessments, implementation, custom development and marketing to help our sales partners extend their capabilities, 
develop new technology practices or reach new end customers. 

Our objective is to grow profitable sales in the technologies we offer and expand in higher margin and adjacent markets to help 
our sales partners offer more products and services and increase recurring revenue opportunities. As part of our strategic plan, we 
consider strategic acquisitions and alliances to enhance our technology offerings and service capabilities. 

Profitability 

Our operating income is driven by gross profits and by control of operating expenses. Our operations feature scalable information 
systems, streamlined management and centralized distribution, enabling us to achieve the economies of scale necessary for cost-
effective  solution  selling.  In  order to  continue  to  grow  in  our  markets,  we  have  continued  to  invest  in  new  technologies  and 
increased marketing efforts to recruit new customers.

Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security 

The Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security segment consists of sales to technology customers in North America, Europe, 
Brazil and additional Latin American countries. During fiscal year 2019, net sales for this segment decreased $39.2 million, or 
1.5%, compared to fiscal year 2018. Excluding the foreign exchange negative impact of $33.3 million and sales from the POS 
Portal  acquisition  for  the  first  quarter  of  fiscal  years  2019 and  2018,  adjusted  net  sales  for  fiscal  year  2019  decreased  $14.7 
million, or 0.6%, compared to the prior year. The decrease in net sales and adjusted net sales is primarily due to decreased sales 
in our international businesses, partially offset by sales growth in our North America business. 

Worldwide Communications & Services 

The Worldwide Communications & Services segment consists of sales to technology customers in North America, Europe Brazil 
and additional Latin American countries. During fiscal year 2019, net sales  for this segment increased $66.0 million or 5.4% 
compared  to  fiscal  year  2018.  Excluding  the  foreign  exchange  negative  impact  of  $45.7  million  and  sales  from  fiscal  2019 
acquisitions, adjusted net sales for fiscal year 2019 increased $104.4 million, or 8.6%, compared to the prior year. The increase 
in net sales and adjusted net sales is primarily due to sales growth in our Brazil and North America businesses, partially offset by 
lower sales volume for our Europe business.

Worldwide Communications & Services 

For  the  Worldwide  Communications  &  Services  segment  gross  profit  dollars  increased  $10.0  million  due  to  increased  sales 
volume.  Gross profit margin decreased slightly to 16.2% for fiscal year 2019 as compared to 16.3% for the prior year primarily 
due to a less favorable sales mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $17.0 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 compared 
to the prior year. The increase in SG&A expenses reflects investments for future growth, primarily in increased employee-related 
expenses in North America. 

Depreciation expense and intangible amortization expense decreased $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the fiscal 
year ending  June 30, 2019. The decrease is  due to assets that  became  fully depreciated  or  amortized during the current  year, 
partially offset by additional expense related to assets acquired through fiscal year 2019 acquisitions. 

We have elected to present changes in fair value of the contingent consideration owed to former shareholders of businesses we 
acquire separately from other SG&A expenses. In fiscal 2019, we have recorded a $15.2 million expense from change in fair 
value of contingent consideration, largely from recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount for the Intelisys 
liability and agreed upon adjustments in the final earnout payment to Network1.

Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security 

For the Worldwide Barcode, Networking &  Security segment, operating income increased $3.0 million and operating margin 
increased slightly to 2.3% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior year. The increase in operating income 
and operating margin is primarily attributable to higher gross margins, partially offset by increased employee-related expenses. 

Worldwide Communications & Services 

For  the  Worldwide  Communications  &  Services  segment,  operating  income  increased  $20.4  million  and  operating  margin 
increased to 2.4% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the prior year. Operating margin in the prior year was

in fair value of contingent consideration for each comparable year, adjusted operating income decreased $1.3 million and adjusted 
operating margin decreased to 3.6% compared to 3.9% in the prior-year, largely due to increased employee-related expenses, 
partially offset by increased sales volume.

Interest expense reflects interest incurred on borrowings, non-utilization fees from our revolving credit facility and amortization 
of debt issuance costs. Interest expense increased in fiscal 2019 as compared to 2018 principally from additional borrowings on 
our multi-currency revolving credit facility. 

Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2019 was generated on interest-bearing customer receivables and interest earned on 
cash and cash equivalents, principally in Brazil. In fiscal year 2018 we recognized accrued interest income related to a legal tax 
settlement in Brazil of $0.7 million that did not recur in the current year. 

Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset 
by net foreign currency exchange contract  gains and losses. Foreign exchange  gains and losses are  generated as the result of 
fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the British pound versus the 
euro, the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar and other currencies versus the U.S. dollar. While we utilize foreign exchange 
contracts and debt in non-functional currencies to hedge foreign currency exposure, our foreign exchange policy prohibits the use 
of derivative  financial instruments  for speculative  transactions. We partially  offset  foreign currency exposure  with  the  use of 
foreign  exchange  forward  contracts  to  hedge  against  these  exposures.  The  costs  associated  with  foreign  exchange  forward 
contracts are included in the net foreign exchange loss. Foreign exchange losses decreased during fiscal year 2019 compared to 
the prior year from the lower cost of hedging. 

Provision for Income Taxes 

Income tax expense was $20.3 million and $27.8 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, reflecting 
an effective tax rate of 26.1% and 45.6%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for fiscal year 2019 as compared to 
fiscal year 2018 is primarily due to significant discrete tax items recognized in the prior year associated with U.S. tax reform that 
did not recur in the current year.

We expect the fiscal year 2020 effective tax rate from continuing operations to be approximately 25% to 26%. See Note 13 - 
Income  Taxes  in  the  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  further  discussion  including  an  effective  tax  rate 
reconciliation.

Non-GAAP Financial Information 

Evaluating Financial Condition and Operating Performance 

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles 
("US GAAP" or "GAAP"), we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures include non-GAAP operating 
income, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, return on invested capital ("ROIC") and "constant 
currency."  Constant  currency  is  a  measure  that  excludes  the  translation  exchange  impact  from  changes  in  foreign  currency 
exchange rates between reporting periods. We use non-GAAP financial measures to better understand and evaluate performance, 
including comparisons from period to period. 

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and the non-GAAP financial measures that we report 
may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP 
basis should be considered in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, measurements of financial performance 
prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

Net Sales in Constant Currency, Excluding Acquisitions 

We make references to "constant currency," a non-GAAP performance measure that excludes the foreign exchange rate impact 
from fluctuations in the average foreign exchange rates between reporting periods. Constant currency is calculated by translating 
current period results from currencies other than the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars using the comparable average foreign exchange 
rates from the prior year period. We also exclude the  impact of acquisitions prior to the first  full  year of operations from the 
acquisition date in order to show net sales results on an organic basis. This information is provided to analyze underlying trends 
without the translation impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates and the impact of acquisitions. Below we show organic 
growth by providing a non-GAAP reconciliation of net sales in constant currency, excluding acquisition:

Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP Pre-Tax Income, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS 

To evaluate current period performance on a more consistent basis with prior periods, we disclose non-GAAP operating income, 
non-GAAP  pre-tax  income,  non-GAAP  net  income  and  non-GAAP  diluted  earnings  per  share.  Non-GAAP  results  exclude 
amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition costs and 
other non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP 
diluted  EPS  are  useful  in  assessing  and  understanding  our  operating  performance,  especially  when  comparing  results  with 
previous  periods  or  forecasting  performance  for  future  periods.  Below  we  provide  a  non-GAAP  reconciliation  of  operating 
income, pre-tax income, net income and earnings per share adjusted for the costs and charges mentioned above:

Return on Invested Capital 

Management uses ROIC as a performance measurement to assess efficiency at allocating capital under our control to generate 
returns. Management believes this metric balances our operating results with asset and liability management, is not impacted by 
capitalization  decisions  and  correlates  with  shareholder  value  creation.  In  addition,  it  is  easily  computed,  communicated  and 
understood. ROIC also provides management a measure of our profitability on a basis more comparable to historical or future 
periods. 

ROIC assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our 
operating results the impact of items that do not reflect  our  core operating  performance. We  believe the calculation  of  ROIC 
provides useful information to investors and is an additional relevant comparison of our performance during the year. 

We calculate ROIC as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus change in fair value of 
contingent consideration and other non-GAAP adjustments ("adjusted EBITDA"), divided by invested capital. Invested capital is 
defined  as  average  equity  plus  average  daily  funded  interest-bearing  debt  for  the  period.  The  following  table  summarizes 
annualized ROIC for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial 
statements,  which  have  been  prepared  in  conformity  with  US  GAAP.  The  preparation  of  financial  statements  requires 
management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of 
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during 
the  reporting  period.  On  an  ongoing  basis  management  evaluates  its  estimates,  including  those  related  to  the  allowance  for 
uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory reserves to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or net realizable value and supplier 
incentives. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes 
to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of 
assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates 
under different assumptions or conditions. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 - Business 
and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. 

Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable 

We maintain an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers’ failure to make 
payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. Management determines the estimate of the allowance for uncollectible 
accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable, 
(3) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers 
and (4) the current economic and country specific environment. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate 
and reduce the ability of our customers to make payments on their accounts, we may be required to increase our allowance by 
recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of our customers improve and result in payments 
or  settlements  of  previously  reserved  amounts,  we  may  be  required  to record  a  reduction  in  bad  debt  expense  to  reverse  the 
recorded allowance. 

Inventory Reserves 

Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or net realizable value based 
principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods and length of time on hand and other factors. An estimate 
is made of the net realizable value, less cost to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If these products 
are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves  may be required. The estimates used to calculate these 
reserves are applied consistently. The adjustments are recorded in the period in which the loss of utility of the inventory occurs, 
which establishes a new cost basis for the inventory. This new cost basis is maintained until such time that the reserved inventory 
is disposed of, returned to the supplier or sold. To the extent that specifically reserved inventory is sold, cost of goods sold is 
expensed for the new cost basis of the inventory sold. 

Supplier Programs 

We receive incentives from suppliers related to cooperative advertising allowances, volume rebates and other incentive programs. 
These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the suppliers. Some of these incentives 
are  negotiated  on  an  ad  hoc  basis  to  support  specific  programs  mutually  developed  between  the  Company  and  the  supplier. 
Suppliers  generally  require  that  we  use  the  suppliers'  cooperative  advertising  allowances  for  advertising  or  other  marketing 
programs.  Incentives  received  from  suppliers  for  specifically  identified  incremental  cooperative  advertising  programs  are 
recorded  as  adjustments  to  selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses. ASC  606–  Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers 
addresses accounting for consideration payable to a customer, which the Company interrupts and applies as the customer (i.e., 
the Company) receiving advertising funds from a supplier. The portion of these supplier funds in excess of our costs are reflected 
as a reduction of inventory. Such funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. 

We record unrestricted volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and reduces the cost of goods sold when the related 
inventory is sold. Amounts received or receivables from suppliers that are not yet earned are deferred in the Consolidated Balance 
Sheets. Supplier receivables are generally collected through reductions to accounts payable authorized by the supplier. In addition, 

34 

 
 
 
 
we may receive early payment discounts from certain suppliers. We record early payment discounts received as a reduction of 
inventory, thereby resulting in a reduction of cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. ASC 606 requires management 
to make certain estimates of the amounts of supplier consideration that will be received. Estimates are based on the terms of the 
incentive  program  and  historical  experiences. Actual  recognition  of  the  supplier  consideration  may  vary  from  management 
estimates. 

Goodwill 

We  account  for  recorded  goodwill  in  accordance  with ASC  350,  Goodwill  and  Other  Intangible Assets,  which  requires  that 
goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. Goodwill testing utilizes an 
impairment analysis, whereby we compare the carrying value of each identified reporting unit to its fair value. The carrying value 
of goodwill is reviewed at a reporting unit level at least annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators 
exist. Our goodwill reporting units align directly with our operating segments, Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security and 
Worldwide  Communications  &  Services.  The  fair  values  of  the  reporting  units  are  estimated  using  the  net  present  value  of 
discounted cash  flows generated by each reporting unit.  Considerable judgment is  necessary  in estimating  future cash  flows, 
discount  rates  and  other  factors  affecting  the  estimated  fair  value  of  the  reporting  units,  including  the  operating  and 
macroeconomic  factors.  Historical  financial  information,  internal  plans  and  projections  and  industry  information  are  used  in 
making such estimates. 

Under Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04 if fair value of goodwill fair value is determined to be less than carrying 
value, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount of the carrying value that exceeds the amount of the reporting units' fair 
value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Additionally, we would consider income tax 
effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment 
loss, if applicable. We also assess the recoverability of goodwill if facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may be impaired. In 
our most recent annual test, we estimated the fair value of our reporting units primarily based on the income approach utilizing 
the discounted cash flow method. We also utilized fair value estimates derived from the market approach utilizing the public 
company  market  multiple  method  to  validate  the  results  of  the  discounted  cash  flow  method,  which  required  us  to  make 
assumptions about the applicability of those multiples to our reporting units. The discounted cash flow  method requires us to 
estimate future cash flows and discount those amounts to present value. The key assumptions utilized in determining fair value 
included: 

•  

Industry  weighted-average  cost  of  capital  ("WACC"):  We  utilized  a  WACC  relative  to  each  reporting  unit's 
respective geography and industry as the discount rate for estimated future cash flows. The WACC is intended to 
represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market place participant in each respective geography.  
•   Operating income: We utilized historical and expected revenue growth rates, gross margins and operating expense 

percentages, which varied based on the projections of each reporting unit being evaluated. 

•   Cash flows from working capital changes:  We utilized a projected cash flow impact pertaining to expected changes 

in working capital as each of our goodwill reporting units grow. 

While we believe our assumptions are appropriate, they are subject to uncertainty and by nature include judgments and estimates 
regarding future events, including projected growth rates, margin percentages and operating efficiencies.  Key assumptions used 
in determining fair value include projected growth and operating margin, working capital requirements and discount rates. During 
fiscal years 2019 and 2018, we completed our annual impairment test as of each April 30th and determined that our goodwill is 
not at risk of impairment. 

See Note 7 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further 
discussion on our goodwill impairment testing and results. 

Liability for Contingent Consideration 

In addition to the initial cash consideration paid to former shareholders of Intelisys, Network1, POS Portal and Imago, we agreed 
to make additional earnout payments based on future results through a specified date based on a multiple of the subsidiary’s pro 

35 

 
 
 
 
 
 
forma earnings as defined in the respective purchase agreements. We paid the final earnout payment to the former shareholders 
of Network1 during fiscal year 2019 and to Imago during fiscal year 2017. We also made a single earnout payment to the former 
shareholders of POS Portal during fiscal year 2018 in accordance with the share purchase agreement. 

Intelisys has two remaining earnout payments to be paid in annual installments during fiscal years 2020 and 2021. In accordance 
with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, we determine the fair value of this liability for contingent consideration at each 
reporting date throughout the term of the earnout using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.  Each period 
we reflect the contingent consideration liability at  fair  value  with  changes recorded in the  change  in  fair  value of contingent 
consideration line item on the Consolidated Income Statement.  Current and noncurrent portions of the liability are presented in 
the current portion of contingent consideration and long-term portion of contingent consideration line items on the Consolidated 
Balance Sheets. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future affect or change on our 
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material 
to  investors.  The  term  “off-balance  sheet  arrangement”  generally  means  any  transaction,  agreement  or  other  contractual 
arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated  with the company is a party, under  which the company  has (i) any obligation 
arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest;  or (ii) a  retained  or  contingent interest in  assets 
transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets. 

Accounting Standards Recently Issued 

See Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the discussion on recent accounting pronouncements. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under the $350 million revolving credit facility.  
Our business requires significant investment in working capital, particularly accounts receivable and inventory, partially financed 
through  our  accounts  payable  to  suppliers.  In  general,  as  our  sales  volumes  increase,  our  net  investment  in  working  capital 
typically increases, which typically results in decreased cash flow from operating activities.  Conversely, when sales volumes 
decrease, our net investment in working capital typically decreases, which typically results in increased cash flow from operating 
activities. 

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $23.8 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $25.5 million at June 30, 2018, of which $18.9 
million and $20.3 million was held outside of the United States as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Checks released but 
not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $25.4 million and $5.7 million are classified as accounts payable as of 
June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 

We conduct business in many locations throughout the world  where  we  generate and  use cash. We provide for United States 
income  taxes  for  the  earnings  of  our  Canadian  subsidiary,  but  earnings  from  Brazil  will  continue  to  be  considered  retained 
indefinitely for reinvestment and all other foreign geographies are immaterial. It has been our practice to reinvest those earnings 
in the businesses outside the United States. Due to recent tax legislation in the United States, we were required to estimate a one-
time transition tax on repatriation of foreign earnings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. See Note 13 - Income Taxes in 
the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. 

Our net investment in working capital increased $124.6 million to $776.4 million at June 30, 2019 from $651.9 million at June 30, 
2018, principally from higher inventory levels. Higher inventory levels in the current year are due to strategic inventory purchases 
during the year, coupled with lower than planned sales. Our net investment in working capital is affected by several factors such 
as fluctuations in sales volume, net income, timing of collections from customers, increases and decreases to inventory levels, 
payments to suppliers, as well as cash generated or used by other financing and investing activities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $27.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2019, compared to $24.8 million provided by 
operating  activities  for  the  years  ended  June 30,  2018.  Operating  cash  flows  for  the  year  ended  June 30,  2019  is  primarily 
attributable to increased inventory levels, partially offset by net income, excluding the impact of initial account balances assumed 
from the Canpango and RPM acquisitions. Operating cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2018 is primarily attributable to net 
income, increases in non-cash adjustments to net income, partially offset by overall increases in cash used for working capital 
needs, excluding the impact of initial accounts balances assumed from the POS Portal acquisition. 

Excluding Intelisys, the number of days sales outstanding ("DSO") was 62 at June 30, 2019, compared to 59 at June 30, 2018. 
Throughout the current fiscal year, DSO ranged from 58 to 62. Inventory turnover was 4.7 times during the fourth quarter of the 
current fiscal year, compared to 6.0 times in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018. Throughout fiscal year 2019, inventory turnover 
ranged from 4.3 to 5.4 times. 

Cash used in investing activities was $39.4 million and $151.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 
Cash used in the business acquisitions of RPM and Canpango and POS Portal in each respective year drove investing cash flow 
for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. 

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2019 totaled to $64.2 million, compared to cash provided by 
financing activities of $100.6 million in fiscal year 2018. For both fiscal years, cash provided by financing activities is primarily 
attributable to net debt borrowings, partially offset by contingent consideration payments. 

In August 2016, the Board of Directors authorized a three year $120 million share repurchase program. Since the inception of the 
program through June 30, 2019, we have repurchased 0.9 million shares totaling $30.5 million, of which 0.3 million  totaling 
$10.1  million  were  repurchased  during  the  year  ended  June 30,  2019. The  current  share  repurchase  authorization  expires  in 
August 2019. 

We have a multi-currency senior secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate 
of banks (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). On April 30, 2019, we amended this credit facility to expand the borrowing capacity 
and extend its maturity to April 30, 2024. The Amended Credit Agreement includes (i) a five-year $350 million multi-currency 
senior  secured  revolving  credit  facility  and  (ii)  a  five-year  $150  million  senior  secured  term  loan  facility. Pursuant  to  an 
“accordion feature,” we may increase its borrowings up to an additional $250 million, for a total of up to $750 million and allows 
for the issuance of up to $50 million for letters of credit, subject to obtaining additional credit commitments from the lenders 
participating in the increase. 

At our option, loans denominated in U.S. dollars under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest 
at a rate equal to a spread over the LIBOR or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's net leverage ratio, calculated as 
total debt less up to $15 million of unrestricted domestic cash to trailing four-quarter adjusted earnings before interest expense, 
taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") (the "Leverage Ratio"). This spread ranges from 1.00% to 1.750% for LIBOR-
based loans and 0.00% to 0.750% for alternate base rate loans. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for the substitution of 

37 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
a new interest rate benchmark upon the transition from LIBOR, subject to agreement between the Company and the administrative 
agent. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary yield protection provisions. Additionally, the Company is assessed 
commitment fees ranging from 0.150% to 0.30%, depending upon the Leverage Ratio, on non-utilized borrowing availability, 
excluding swingline loans. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the domestic 
assets of the Company and a pledge of up to 65% of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined 
to be either material or a subsidiary borrower as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. 

The  Amended  Credit  Agreement  includes  customary  representations,  warranties,  and  affirmative  and  negative  covenants, 
including financial covenants. Specifically, our Leverage Ratio must be less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 at all times. In addition, 
our Interest Coverage Ratio (as such term is defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) must be at least 3.00:1.00 as of the end 
of  each  fiscal  quarter.  In  the  event  of  a  default,  customary  remedies  are  available  to  the  lenders,  including  acceleration  and 
increased interest rates. We were in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility as of June 30, 2019. There was $200.8 
million and $244.0 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 

The average daily balance on the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, was $296.4 million and $269.5 million 
for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. There were no letters of credit issued under the multi-currency revolving 
credit facility as of June 30, 2019 and 2018. There was $149.2 million, and $156.0 million available for additional borrowings as 
of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Future availability will depend upon, among other things, the levels of our Leverage 
Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio, which, in turn, will depend upon (1) our overall net debt relative to our EBITDA, and (2) 
EBITDA relative to total interest expense, respectively.  As a result, our availability will increase if EBITDA increases (subject 
to the limit of the facility) and decrease if EBITDA decreases. 

We have a bank overdraft facility with Bank of America used by our European subsidiaries. The facility allows us to disburse 
checks in excess of bank balances up to $14.0 million U.S. dollar equivalent for up to seven days. Borrowings under the overdraft 
facility bear interest at a rate equal to a spread of 1.0% over the applicable currency's LIBOR with a zero percent floor. There 
was an outstanding balance of $4.6 million on the overdraft facility at June 30, 2019. 

As of June 30, 2019, we are obligated to pay certain earnout payments to the former shareholders of Intelisys related to their 
acquisition on August 29, 2016. See Note 10 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a discussion on the liabilities recorded. 
We paid the final earnout payment to the former shareholders of Network1 in fiscal year 2019. We made a single earnout payment 
to the former shareholders of POS Portal in fiscal year 2018. Future earnout payments for Intelisys are expected to be funded by 
cash from operations and our existing revolving credit facility. 

We believe that our existing sources of liquidity, including cash resources and cash provided by operating activities, supplemented 
as necessary with funds under our credit agreements, will provide sufficient resources to meet our present and future working 
capital and cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. 

Commitments 

At June 30, 2019, we had contractual obligations in the form of non-cancelable operating leases, a capital lease (including interest 
payments),  debt  (including  interest  payments)  and  the  contingent  consideration  for  the  earnout  pertaining  to  the  Intelisys 
acquisition.  See Notes 8, 10 and 14 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.  The following table summarizes our 
future contractual obligations:

in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019, have been excluded from the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing of the payment of 
these obligations, which are generally at the discretion of the individual employees or upon death of the former employee, respectively. 

ITEM 7A. 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. 

Our principal exposure to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of our business is a result of our selective 
use of bank debt and transacting business in foreign currencies in connection with our foreign operations. 

Interest Rate Risk 

We  are  exposed  to  changes  in  interest  rates  primarily  as  a  result  of  our  borrowing  activities,  which  include  revolving  credit 
facilities with a group of banks used to maintain liquidity and fund our business operations. The nature and amount of our debt 
may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase 
or decrease in interest rates on borrowings on our revolving credit facility and variable rate long-term debt, net of the impact of 
the  interest  rate  swap,  would  have  resulted  in  approximately  a  $2.6  million  and  $2.3  million  increase  or  decrease  in  pre-tax 
income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 

We evaluate our interest rate risk and may use interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of interest rate fluctuations associated with 
our current and long-term debt. At June 30, 2019 and 2018 we had $355.9 million and $249.4 million, respectively, in variable 
rate long term debt and borrowings under the revolving credit facility. In connection with the borrowings under the credit facility 
including potential future amendments or extensions of the facility, we entered into an interest rate swap maturing on April 3, 
2022. The interest rate swap agreement was settled in connection with the April 30, 2019 amendment to our credit facility and 
we entered into a new interest rate swap with a notional amount of $100.0 million, with a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to 
mature on April 30, 2024 and a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to mature April 30, 2026.  The purpose of the interest rate swap 
is to manage or hedge our exposure to floating rate debt and achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus floating rate debt. Our 
use of derivative instruments have the potential to expose us to certain market risks including the possibility of (1) our hedging 
activities not being as effective as anticipated in reducing the volatility of our cash flows, (2) the counterparty not performing its 
obligations under the applicable hedging arrangement, (3) the hedging arrangement being imperfect or ineffective or (4) the terms 
of the swap or associated debt changing. We seek to lessen such risks by having established a policy to identify, control and 

39 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   
   
 
 
 
 
 
manage market risks which may arise from changes in interest rates, as well as limiting our counterparties to major financial 
institutions. 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk 

We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from our foreign operations in Canada, Brazil, other parts of Latin America,  
and  Europe. These  risks  include  transactions  denominated  in  non-functional  currencies  and  intercompany  loans  with  foreign 
subsidiaries.  In the normal course of the business, foreign exchange risk is managed by the use of currency options and forward 
contracts to hedge these exposures as well as balance sheet netting of exposures.  In addition, exchange rate fluctuations may 
cause our international results to fluctuate significantly when translated into U.S. dollars. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease 
in foreign exchange rates would have resulted in approximately a $1.3 million and $0.4 million increase or decrease in pre-tax 
income  for fiscal  years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These risks  may change over  time  as  business practices 
evolve and could have a material impact on our financial results in the future. 

Our senior management has approved a foreign exchange hedging policy to reduce foreign currency exposure. Our policy is to 
utilize financial instruments to reduce risks where internal netting cannot be effectively employed and not to enter into foreign 
currency derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. We monitor our risk associated with the volatility of certain 
foreign currencies against our functional currencies and enter into foreign exchange derivative contracts to minimize short-term 
currency risks on cash flows. These positions are based  upon balance  sheet exposures and, in certain  foreign currencies,  our 
forecasted purchases and sales. We continually evaluate foreign exchange risk and may enter into foreign exchange transactions 
in accordance with our policy. Actual variances from these forecasted transactions can adversely impact foreign exchange results. 
Foreign currency gains and losses are included in other expense (income). 

We  have  elected  not  to  designate  our  foreign  currency  contracts  as  hedging  instruments,  and  therefore,  the  instruments  are 
marked-to-market with changes in their values recorded in the consolidated income statement each period. Our foreign currencies 
are primarily Brazilian reais, euros, British pounds, Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos and Colombian pesos. At June 30, 2019 
and 2018 the fair value of our currency forward contracts  were of net receivable of less than $0.1  million. We do not utilize 
financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm 

Board of Directors and Shareholders 
ScanSource, Inc.: 

Opinion on the Financial Statements 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  ScanSource,  Inc.  (a  South  Carolina  corporation)  and 
subsidiaries  (the  “Company”)  as  of  June  30,  2019  and  2018,  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  income,  comprehensive 
income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2019, and the 
related notes and financial statement schedule included under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). 
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 
30, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 
2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 

We  also  have  audited,  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States) 
(“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 
2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 
(“COSO”), and our report dated August 22, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion. 

Basis for opinion 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on 
the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are 
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable 
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about  whether the  financial statements are free of material  misstatement,  whether due to 
error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a 
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the 
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the 
financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

Critical audit matters 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that 
were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are 
material  to  the  financial  statements  and  (2)  involved  our  especially  challenging,  subjective,  or  complex  judgments.  The 
communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and 
we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the 
accounts or disclosures to which they relate. 

Supplier Incentives 

As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incentive agreements with many of its suppliers. 
Supplier  rebates  can  be  in  the  form  of  instant  rebates  or  achievement-based  rebates.    Instant  rebate  programs  reduce  the 
Company’s inventory cost so that the Company can reduce the ultimate sales price to the customer or provide additional margin 

42 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
to the Company.  Achievement-based rebates are earned by achieving certain sales or purchase targets on a periodic basis.  We 
identified supplier incentives as a critical audit matter. 

The  principal  considerations  for  our  determination  that  supplier  incentives  is  a  critical  audit  matter  are  the  large  volume  of 
transactions subject to rebates that are earned under varying contract terms, and the related assumptions made by management. 
The Company determines whether, among other items, all qualifying sales and purchases are considered in calculating the rebates 
and cash receipts or credit memos received are appropriately applied. The determination of achievement-based rebates requires 
management to make assumptions about future purchases and sales. Accordingly, for both instant and achievement-based rebates, 
there is a risk that the rebates are not accounted for consistent with the terms of the current contracts, which requires a high degree 
of auditor judgment in designing and executing audit procedures to respond to this risk. 

Our  audit  procedures  related  to  the  supplier  incentives  included  the  following,  among  others.    We  confirmed  a  sample  of 
outstanding balances of supplier rebate receivables. For unreturned confirmations, we vouched the related balances to subsequent 
cash receipts or credit memos received by the Company or obtained the underlying vendor agreements. Using those agreements, 
we recalculated the receivable based on the stated terms and verified the completeness and accuracy of the underlying sales or 
purchases  data  used  by  management  in  determining  the  receivables  balance.  In  addition,  we  analyzed  the  rebate  receivable 
collection history to evaluate the overall collectability of the supplier rebate receivables balance. We also tested the design and 
operating  effectiveness  of  controls  relating  to  supplier  incentives  including,  among  others,  the  Company’s  controls  over 
processing new incentive agreements, specifically related to the appropriate recognition of reductions to cost of goods sold for 
instant rebates and the appropriate amortization of inventory valuation adjustments to cost of goods sold for achievement-based 
rebates.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm 

Board of Directors and Shareholders 
ScanSource, Inc.: 

Opinion on internal control over financial reporting 

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of ScanSource, Inc. (a South Carolina corporation) and subsidiaries 
(the “Company”) as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by 
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, 
in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in the 
2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO. 

We  also  have  audited,  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States) 
(“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and our report 
dated August 22, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. 

Basis for opinion 

The  Company’s  management  is  responsible  for  maintaining  effective  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  and  for  its 
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report 
on  Internal  Control  over  Financial  Reporting  (“Management’s  Report”).  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  the 
Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  based  on  our  audit.  We  are  a  public  accounting  firm  registered  with  the 
PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and 
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  effective  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  was  maintained  in  all 
material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk 
that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the 
assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit 
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

Our audit of, and opinion on, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not include the internal control over 
financial  reporting  of  Canpango,  Inc.  (Canpango)  and  RPM  Software,  LLC  (RPM),  two  wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  whose 
financial  statements  reflect  total  combined  assets  and  revenues  constituting  2  and  1  percent,  respectively,  of  the  related 
consolidated financial  statement amounts as  of and  for  the year ended  June 30, 2019. As  indicated  in Management’s  Report, 
Canpango and RPM were acquired during the year ended June 30, 2019. Management’s assertion on the effectiveness of the 
Company’s internal control over financial reporting excluded internal control over financial reporting of Canpango and RPM. 

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting 

A  company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  is  a  process  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the 
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that 
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions 
of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation 
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the 
company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide 
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s 
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

44 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Because  of  its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  may  not  prevent  or  detect  misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because 
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Business Description 

ScanSource, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries referred to as “the Company” or “ScanSource”) is at the center of the solution 
delivery channel, connecting businesses and institutions and providing technology solutions. The Company brings technology 
solutions and services from the world’s leading suppliers of point-of-sale (POS), payments, barcode, physical security, unified 
communications and collaboration and telecom and cloud services to market. The Company operates in the United States, Canada, 
Brazil,  additional  Latin  American  countries,  and  Europe.  The  Company's  two  operating  segments,  Worldwide  Barcode, 
Networking & Security and Worldwide Communications & Services, are based on product, customer and service type. 

Consolidation Policy 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All inter-company 
accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 

Related Party Transactions 

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate 
families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common 
control with the Company or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. 
A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related 
parties. There were no material related party transactions for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017. 

Use of Estimates 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management 
evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, contingent consideration 
and inventory reserves. Management bases its estimates on assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the 
circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are 
not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; 
however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable and that the actual 
results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts. 

The following significant accounting policies relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of 
the Consolidated Financial Statements: 

(a) Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable 

The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers’ 
failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. 

Management  determines  the  estimate  of the  allowance  for  uncollectible  accounts  receivable  by  considering  a  number  of 
factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable, (3) specific information obtained by  the 
Company  on  the  financial  condition  and  the  current  creditworthiness  of  its  customers  and  (4)  the  current  economic  and

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

country  specific  environment.  If  the  financial  condition  of  the  Company’s  customers  were  to  deteriorate  and  reduce  the 
ability  of  the  Company’s  customers  to  make  payments  on  their  accounts,  the  Company  may  be  required  to  increase  its 
allowance by recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of the Company’s customers 
improve and result in payments or settlements of previously reserved amounts, the Company may be required to record a 
reduction in bad debt expense to reverse the recorded allowance. 

(b) Inventory Reserves 

Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or net realizable value 
based principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods, length of time on hand and other factors. An 
estimate is made of the net realizable value, less cost to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If 
these products are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves may be required. The estimates used to 
calculate these reserves are applied consistently. The adjustments are recorded in the period in which the loss of utility of the 
inventory occurs, which establishes a new cost basis for the inventory. This new cost basis is maintained until such time that 
the reserved inventory is disposed of, returned to the supplier or sold. To the extent that specifically reserved inventory is 
sold, cost of goods sold is expensed for the new cost basis of the inventory sold. 

(c) Purchase Price Allocations 

For  each  acquisition,  the  Company  allocates  the  purchase  price  to  assets  acquired,  liabilities  assumed  and  goodwill  and 
intangibles  in  accordance  with  the  Financial Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB") Accounting  Standards  Codification 
("ASC") 805, Business Combinations. The Company recognizes assets and liabilities acquired at their estimated fair values. 
Management uses judgment to (1) identify the acquired assets and liabilities assumed, (2) estimate the fair value of these 
assets,  (3)  estimate  the  useful  life  of  the  assets  and  (4)  assess  the  appropriate  method  for  recognizing  depreciation  or 
amortization expense over the asset’s useful life. 

(d) Goodwill Fair Value 

The Company estimates the fair value of its goodwill reporting units primarily based on the income approach utilizing the 
discounted cash flow method. The Company also utilizes fair value estimates derived from the market approach utilizing the 
public company market multiple method to validate the results of the discounted cash flow method, which requires it to make 
assumptions about the applicability of those multiples to its reporting units. The discounted cash flow method requires the 
Company to estimate future cash flows, using key assumptions such as the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth 
rates, projected gross margin and operating margin percentage growth, expected working capital changes and a related cash 
flow impact from working capital changes, and then discount those amounts to present value. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash 
equivalents. The  Company  maintains  some  zero-balance  disbursement  accounts  at  various  financial  institutions  in  which  the 
Company does not maintain significant depository relationships. Due to the terms of the agreements governing these accounts, 
the Company does not have the right to offset most if not all outstanding checks written from these accounts against cash on hand 
and the respective institutions are not legally obligated to honor the checks until sufficient funds are transferred to fund the checks. 
As a result, checks released but not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $25.4 million and $5.7 million are classified 
as accounts payable as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued) 
June 30, 2019 

The  Company  maintains  its  cash  with  various  financial  institutions  globally  that  are  monitored  regularly  for  credit  quality, 
although it may hold amounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") or other insured limits. Cash and 
cash  equivalents  held  outside  of  the  United  States  totaled  $18.9  million  and  $20.3  million  as  of  June 30,  2019  and  2018, 
respectively. 

Concentration of Credit Risk 

The Company sells to a large base of customers throughout the United States, Canada, Brazil, additional Latin American countries 
and  Europe.  The  Company  performs  ongoing  credit  evaluations  of  its  customers’  financial  condition.  In  certain  cases,  the 
Company will accept tangible assets as collateral to increase the trade credit of its customers. In addition, the Company carries 
credit insurance on certain subsections of the customer portfolio. No single customer accounted for more than 5%, 6% and 5% 
of the Company’s net sales for fiscal years 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

In the event that the Company does not collect payment on accounts receivable  within the established trade terms for certain 
customers, the Company may establish arrangements for longer-term financing. The Company accounts for these arrangements 
by recording them at their historical cost less specific allowances at balance sheet dates. Interest income is recognized in the 
period earned and is recorded as interest income in the Consolidated Income Statement. 

Derivative Financial Instruments 

The Company uses derivative instruments to manage certain exposures related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates 
and changes in interest rates in connection with borrowing activities. The Company records all derivative instruments as either 
assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments 
for trading or speculative purposes. 

The Company’s foreign currency exposure results from purchasing and selling internationally in several foreign currencies and 
from intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries. The Company's foreign currencies are denominated primarily in Brazilian 
reais, euros, British pounds, Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos and Colombian pesos. 

The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use 
of  derivative  financial  instruments.  The  market  risk  related  to  the  foreign  exchange  agreements  is  offset  by  changes  in  the 
valuation of the underlying items. These contracts are generally for a duration of 90 days or less. The Company has elected not 
to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments. They are, therefore, marked-to-market with changes in their 
fair  value  recorded  in  the  Consolidated  Income  Statement  each  period.    Derivative  financial  instruments  related  to  foreign 
currency exposure are accounted for on an accrual basis with gains or losses on these contracts recorded in income in the period 
in which their value changes, with the offsetting entry for unsettled positions reflected in either other assets or other liabilities. 

The Company's earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest expense from 
floating rate debt instruments. To manage the exposure, the Company has an interest rate swap agreement and has designated this 
instrument as a hedge of the cash flows on certain  variable rate debt. To the extent the derivative instrument was effective in 
offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument were not included in 
current  earnings,  but  were  reported  as  other  comprehensive  income  (loss).  There  was  no  ineffective  portion  recorded  as  an 
adjustment to earnings for the year ended June 30, 2019.

Investments 

The Company has investments that are held in a grantor trust formed by the Company related to the ScanSource, Inc. Nonqualified 
Deferred Compensation Plan  and founder’s Supplemental  Executive  Retirement Plan ("SERP"). The Company has  classified 
these  investments  as  trading  securities,  and  they  are  recorded  at  fair  value  with  unrealized  gains  and  losses  included  in  the 
accompanying Consolidated Income Statements. The Company’s obligations under this deferred compensation plan change in 
concert with the performance of the investments along with contributions to and withdrawals from the plan. The fair value of 
these investments and the corresponding deferred compensation obligation was $25.8 million and $23.4 million as of June 30, 
2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. These investments are classified as either prepaid expenses and current assets or other non-
current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets depending on the timing of planned disbursements. The deferred compensation 
obligation  is  classified  either  within  accrued  expenses  and  other  current  liabilities  or  other  long-term  liabilities  as  well. The 
amounts of these investments classified as current assets with corresponding current liabilities were $1.6 million at June 30, 2019 
and 2018. 

Inventories 

Inventories (consisting entirely of finished goods) are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. 

Supplier Programs 

The  Company  receives  incentives  from  suppliers  related  to  cooperative  advertising  allowances,  volume  rebates  and  other 
incentive programs. These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the suppliers. Some 
of these incentives are negotiated on an ad hoc basis to support specific programs mutually developed between the Company and 
the supplier. Suppliers generally require that the Company use the suppliers' cooperative advertising allowances for advertising 
or other marketing programs. Incentives received from suppliers for specifically identified incremental cooperative advertising 
programs are recorded as adjustments to selling, general and administrative expenses. ASC 606– Revenue from Contracts with 
Customers  addresses  accounting  for  consideration  payable  to  a  customer,  which  the  Company  interprets  and  applies  as  the 
customer (i.e., the Company) receiving advertising funds from a supplier. The portion of these supplier funds in excess of our 
costs are reflected as a reduction of inventory. Such funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of goods sold when the related 
inventory is sold. 

The Company records unrestricted volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and reduces the cost of goods sold when 
the  related  inventory  is  sold.  Amounts  received  or  receivables  from  suppliers  that  are  not  yet  earned  are  deferred  in  the 
Consolidated Balance Sheets. Supplier receivables are generally collected through reductions to accounts payable authorized by 
the supplier. In addition, the Company may receive early payment discounts from certain suppliers. The Company records early 
payment discounts received as a reduction of inventory, thereby resulting in a reduction of cost of goods sold when the related 
inventory is sold. Management makes certain estimates of the amounts of supplier consideration that will be received. Estimates 
are based on the terms of the incentive program and historical experiences. Actual recognition of the supplier consideration may 
vary from management estimates. 

Supplier Concentration 

The Company sells products from many suppliers; however, sales of products supplied by Cisco and Zebra each constituted more 
than 10% of the Company's net sales for the year ended June 30, 2019. Avaya, Cisco and Zebra each constituted more than 10% 
of the Company’s net sales for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued) 
June 30, 2019 

Product Warranty 

The Company’s suppliers generally provide a warranty on the products provided by the Company and allow the Company to 
return defective products, including those that have been returned to the Company by its customers. In three of its product lines, 
the Company offers a self-branded warranty program, in which management has determined that the Company is the primary 
obligor. The Company purchases contracts from unrelated third parties, generally the original equipment manufacturers, to fulfill 
any obligation to service or replace defective product claimed on these warranty programs. As a result, the Company has not 
recorded a provision for estimated service  warranty costs. To  maintain customer  relations,  the  Company  facilitates returns  of 
defective products from the Company's customers by accepting for exchange, with the Company's prior approval, most defective 
products within 30 days of invoicing. 

Property and Equipment 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives 
of      3  to  10  years  for  furniture,  equipment  and  computer  software,  25  to  40  years  for  buildings  and  15 years  for  building 
improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, 
repairs  and  minor  renewals  are  charged  to  expense  as  incurred. Additions,  major  renewals  and  betterments  to  property  and 
equipment are capitalized. 

Capitalized Software 

The Company accounts for capitalized software in accordance with ASC 350-40, Computer Software Developed for Internal Use, 
which provides guidance for computer software developed or obtained for internal use. The Company is required to continually 
evaluate the stage of the implementation process to determine whether or not costs are expensed or capitalized. Costs incurred 
during  the  preliminary  project  phase  or  planning  and  research  phase  are  expensed  as  incurred.  Costs  incurred  during  the 
development phase, such as material and direct services costs, compensation costs of employees associated with the development 
and interest cost, are capitalized as incurred. Costs incurred during the post-implementation or operation phase, such as training 
and maintenance costs, are expensed as incurred. In addition, costs incurred to modify existing software that result in additional 
functionality are capitalized as incurred. 

Goodwill 

The Company accounts for recorded goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires 
that goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. Goodwill testing utilizes an 
impairment analysis, whereby the Company compares the carrying value of each identified reporting unit to its fair value. The 
Company's goodwill reporting units align directly with its operating segments, Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security and 
Worldwide  Communications  &  Services.  The  fair  values  of  the  reporting  units  are  estimated  using  the  net  present  value  of 
discounted cash  flows generated by each reporting unit.  Considerable judgment is  necessary  in estimating  future cash  flows, 
discount rates and other factors affecting the estimated fair value of the reporting units, including operating and macroeconomic 
factors.  Historical  financial  information,  internal  plans  and  projections  and  industry  information  are  used  in  making  such 
estimates. 

Under Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, if fair value of goodwill is determined to be less than carrying value, an 
impairment loss is recognized for the amount of the carrying value that exceeds the amount of the reporting units' fair value, not 
to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Additionally, the Company would consider income tax 
effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment 
loss, if applicable. The Company also assesses the recoverability of goodwill if facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may 

56 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued) 
June 30, 2019 

be impaired. In its most recent annual test, the Company estimated the fair value of its reporting units primarily based on the 
income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. The Company also corroborated the fair value estimates derived 
from  the  income  approach  by  considering  the  implied  market  multiples  of  comparable  transactions  and  companies.  The 
discounted cash flow method required the Company to estimate future cash flows and discount those amounts to present value. 
The key assumptions utilized in determining fair value included: 

•  

Industry weighted-average cost of capital ("WACC"): The Company utilized a WACC relative to each reporting 
unit's respective geography and industry as the discount rate for estimated future cash flows. The WACC is intended 
to represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market participant in each respective geography.  

•   Operating  income:  The  Company  utilized  historical  and  expected  revenue  growth  rates,  gross  margins  and 
operating expense percentages, which varied based on the projections of each reporting unit being evaluated. 
•   Other  cash  flow  adjustments:   The  Company  utilized  a  projected  cash  flow  impact  pertaining  to  depreciation, 

capital expenditures and expected changes in working capital as each of its goodwill reporting units grow. 

No goodwill impairment charges were recognized for the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017. See Note 7 - Goodwill and 
Other Identifiable Intangible Assets for more information regarding goodwill and the results of our testing. 

Intangible Assets 

Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade names, distributor agreements, supplier partner programs, developed 
technology,  non-compete  agreements  and  an  encryption  key  library.  Customer  relationships,  distributor  agreements,  supplier 
partner programs, developed technology and the encryption key library are amortized using the straight-line method over their 
estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 15 years. Trade names are amortized over a period ranging from 1 to 5 years. Non-
compete agreements are amortized over their contract life. 

These assets are shown in detail in Note 7 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets. 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying 
amount of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Tests for recoverability of a long-lived asset to be held and used are 
measured by comparing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset to the sum of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows 
expected to be generated by the asset. In estimating the future undiscounted cash flows, the Company uses projections of cash 
flows directly associated with, and which are expected to arise as a direct result of, the use and eventual disposition of the assets. 
If it is determined that a long-lived asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss would be calculated equal to the excess of the 
carrying amount of the long-lived asset over its fair value. No impairment charges were recognized for the years ended June 30, 
2019, 2018 and 2017. 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

The fair value of financial instruments is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between 
willing parties. The carrying values of financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, 
borrowings  under  the  revolving  credit  facility  and  subsidiary  lines  of  credit  approximate  fair  value  based  upon  either  short 
maturities or variable interest rates of these instruments. For additional information related to the fair value of derivatives, please 
see Note 10 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

Liability for Contingent Consideration 

In  addition  to  the  initial  cash  consideration  paid  to  former  shareholders  of  Intelisys,  Network1,  POS  Portal  and  Imago,  the 
Company agreed to make additional earnout payments based on future results through a specified date based on a multiple of the 
subsidiary’s pro forma earnings as defined in the respective purchase agreements. Future payments are to be paid in the functional 
currency of the acquired entity. The Company paid the final earnout payment to the former shareholders of Network1 during 
fiscal  year  2019  and  to  Imago  during  fiscal  year  2017.  The  Company  also  made  a  single  earnout  payment  to  the  former 
shareholders of POS Portal during fiscal year 2018 in accordance with the share purchase agreement. 

Intelisys has two remaining earnout payments to be paid in annual installments during fiscal years 2020 and 2021. In accordance 
with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, the Company determines the fair value of this liability for contingent consideration 
at each reporting date throughout the term of the earnout using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.  
Each period the Company will reflect the contingent consideration liability at fair value with changes recorded in the change in 
fair value of contingent consideration line item on the Consolidated Income Statement.  Current and noncurrent portions of the 
liability are presented in the current portion of contingent consideration and long-term portion of contingent consideration line 
items on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 

Contingencies 

The Company accrues for contingent obligations, including estimated legal costs, when it is probable that a liability is incurred 
and the amount is reasonably estimable. As facts concerning contingencies become known, management reassesses its position 
and makes appropriate adjustments to the financial statements. Estimates that are particularly sensitive to future changes include 
tax,  legal  and  other  regulatory  matters,  which  are  subject  to  change  as  events  evolve  and  as  additional  information  becomes 
available during the administrative and litigation process. 

Revenue Recognition 

The Company adopted ASC 606 effective July 1, 2018 utilizing the full retrospective method. In determining the appropriate 
amount of revenue to recognize, the Company applies the following five-step model: (i) identify contracts with customers; (ii) 
identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the 
performance  obligations  per  the  contracts;  and  (v)  recognize  revenue  when  (or  as)  the  Company  satisfies  a  performance 
obligation. The Company recognizes revenue as control of products and services are transferred to customers, which is generally 
at  the  point  of  shipment.  The  Company  delivers  products  to  customers  in  several  ways,  including:  (i)  shipment  from  the 
Company's warehouse, (ii) drop-shipment directly from the supplier, or (iii) electronic delivery for software licenses. For more 
detailed disclosures on the Company's revenue recognition policies, see Note 2 - Revenue Recognition. 

Advertising Costs 

The Company defers advertising-related costs until the advertising is  first run in trade or other publications or, in the case of 
brochures,  until  the  brochures  are  printed  and  available  for  distribution  or  posted  online. Advertising  costs,  net  of  supplier 
reimbursement, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and were not significant in any of the three fiscal 
years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Deferred advertising costs for each of these three fiscal years were also not significant. 

Foreign Currency 

The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Company’s foreign entities that operate in their local currency 
are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. 
The Company's functional currencies include U.S. dollars, Brazilian reais, euros, British  pounds, Colombian pesos, Canadian 

58 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued) 
June 30, 2019 

dollars  and  South African  rand.  The  assets  and  liabilities  of  these  foreign  entities  are  translated  into  U.S.  dollars  using  the 
exchange rate at the end of the respective period. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates effective 
during the respective period. Foreign currency transactional and re-measurement gains and losses are included in other expense 
(income) in the Consolidated Income Statements. Such amounts are not significant to any of the periods presented. 

Income Taxes 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect tax consequences on future 
years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. In accordance with ASC 
740, Accounting for Income Taxes, valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not 
that an asset will not be realized. Additionally, the Company maintains reserves for uncertain tax provisions. See Note 13 - Income 
Taxes  for further discussion and the  impact of  the Tax Cut  and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act")  enacted by  the  U.S.  government on 
December 22, 2017. 

Share-Based Payments 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation using the provisions of ASC 718,  Accounting for Stock Compensation, 
which requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation. Furthermore, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09 
which  simplified  several  aspects  of  the  accounting  for  share-based  compensation,  including  income  tax  effects,  forfeitures, 
statutory withholding requirements and cash flow statement classifications. Share-based compensation is estimated at the grant 
date based on the fair value of the awards. Since this compensation cost is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has 
been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASU 2016-09 allows companies to elect an accounting policy either to continue to estimate 
the total number of awards for which the requisite service period will not be rendered or to account for forfeitures when they 
occur. The Company has elected to maintain its current accounting policy, estimate the total number of awards expected to be 
forfeited at the time of grant and revise such estimates, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ. The Company 
has elected to expense grants of awards with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each 
separately vesting portion of the award. 

Common stock repurchases 

Repurchases of common stock are accounted for at cost, which  includes brokerage fees, and are  included as a component  of 
shareholder's equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In August 2016, the Board of Directors authorized a three-year $120 
million share repurchase program. 

Comprehensive Income 

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, defines comprehensive income as the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise 
during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The components of comprehensive 
income for the Company include net income, unrealized gains or losses on hedged transactions, net of tax and foreign currency 
translation adjustments arising from the consolidation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. 

Business Combinations 

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. ASC 805 establishes 
principles and requirements for recognizing the total consideration transferred to and the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and 
any non-controlling interest in the acquired target in a business combination. ASC 805 also provides guidance for recognizing

June 30, 2019 

and measuring goodwill acquired in a business combination and requires the acquirer to disclose information that users may need 
to evaluate and understand the financial impact of the business combination. See Note 6 - Acquisitions for further discussion. 

Reclassifications 

Certain reclassifications have been made on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the 
prior years. On the Consolidated Balance Sheets balances have been reclassified within other current assets from trade accounts 
receivable  to  other  receivables.  On  the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Cash  Flows  balances  have  been  reclassified  within  the 
operating activities related to the aforementioned changes to other current assets and balances have been reclassified within our 
operating and financing activities section for contingent consideration payments in connection with adopting ASU 2016-15. These 
reclassifications had no effect on consolidated financial results. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard for 
contracts with customers that superseded the most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance 
under Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In March, April, 
May and December 2016 the FASB issued additional ASUs to provide supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to ASU 
2014-09. The core principle of this standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods 
or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for 
those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine 
when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, 
ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be 
recognized  before  contingencies  are  resolved  in  certain  circumstances.  This  guidance  also  requires  enhanced  disclosures 
regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. 
The Company adopted the standard on July 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method. The adoption of this standard had no 
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 Revenue Recognition for additional information. 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) requiring lessees to reflect most leases on their balance 
sheets and recognize expenses on their income statements  in  a  manner  similar to current guidance.  Under  the new  guidance, 
lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, 
measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the 
use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The asset will be measured at the lease liability amount, adjusted for lease prepayments, 
lease incentives received and the lessee's initial direct costs. For leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, as long as the lease 
does not include options to purchase the underlying assets, lessees can elect not to recognize a lease liability and right-of-use 
asset. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged, and the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions is 
simplified. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those 
fiscal years. This guidance will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2019. The guidance can be 
adopted  using  a  modified  retrospective  approach  or  a  cumulative-effect  adjustment  to  the  opening  balance  sheet  of  retained 
earnings in the period of adoption for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in 
the financial statements. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing its assessment of the impact of the new standard 
and implementing related process and system changes. The Company currently expects that the primary impact will be an increase 
in  its  total  assets  and  total  liabilities  due  to  the  recognition  of  right-of-use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities  upon 
implementation for leases currently accounted for as operating leases. The adoption of this standard is not expected to be material 
to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and based on the Company's ongoing assessment, the Company expects to 
recognize right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities of approximately $35 million to $45 million.

In June 2016, the FASB issues ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). In November 2018, the FASB 
issued  ASU  2018-19,  Codification  Improvements  to  Topic  326:  Financial  Instruments  -  Credit  Losses,  which  provides 
supplemental  guidance  and  clarification  to ASU  2016-13  and  must  be  adopted  concurrently. The  pronouncement  revises  the 
methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. The guidance 
is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 with early adoption permitted. The Company is 
currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements. 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) intended to reduce diversity in practice of 
how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The update addresses 
eight specific cash flow issues, with the treatment of contingent consideration payments made after a business combination being 
the most directly applicable to the Company. The update requires that cash payments made approximately three months or less 
after an acquisition's consummation date should be classified as cash outflows for investing activities. Payment made thereafter 
up to the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows from financing activities. 
Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows 
from operating activities. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods 
within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the standard for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018 using the retrospective 
transition method. For fiscal year 2018, the Company classified the amount of the Network1 earnout payment paid in excess of 
the  originally  anticipated  liability  at  the  acquisition  date  as  an  operating  cash  outflow.    For  fiscal  year  2019,  the  Company 
classified the amounts of the Intelisys and Network1 earnout payments in excess as an operating cash outflow. 

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) that amends and simplifies guidance related 
to hedge accounting to more accurately portray the economics of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. 
The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. 
Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. This guidance will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year 
beginning July 1, 2019. The guidance requires adoption using a modified retrospective approach. The presentation and disclosure 
requirements apply prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements upon 
the adoption of this new guidance. 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework – Changes to the 
Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The pronouncement eliminates, modifies and adds disclosure requirements 
for  fair  value  measurements.   This  guidance  is  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2019,  and  for  interim 
periods  within  those  fiscal  years,  with  early  adoption  permitted.  This  guidance  is  applicable  to  the  Company’s  fiscal  year 
beginning July 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial 
statements. 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing 
Arrangement that is a Service Contract. This ASU amends the definition of a hosting arrangement and requires a customer in a 
hosting arrangement that is a service contract to capitalize certain implementation costs as if the arrangement was an internal-use 
software project. Under this ASU, a customer will determine whether to capitalize implementation costs of the cloud computing 
arrangement that is a service contract  or expense them  as  incurred. This guidance  is applicable  to  the  Company’s fiscal year 
beginning July 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard as of June 30, 2019, capitalizing $5.4 
million of SaaS implementation costs related to Salesforce software which is classified as prepaid expenses and other current 
assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 

The Company has reviewed other newly issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they are either not applicable to 
its business or that no material effect is expected on its consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.

Revenue Recognition 

The Company provides technology solutions and services from the world's leading suppliers of POS, payments, barcode, physical 
security, unified communications and collaboration, and telecom and cloud services. This includes hardware, related accessories, 
device configuration as well as software licenses, professional services and hardware support programs. 

The Company adopted ASC 606 effective July 1, 2018 utilizing the full retrospective method. In determining the appropriate 
amount of revenue to recognize, the Company applies the following five-step model: (i) identify contracts with customers; (ii) 
identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the 
performance  obligations  per  the  contracts;  and  (v)  recognize  revenue  when  (or  as)  the  Company  satisfies  a  performance 
obligation. The Company recognizes revenue as control of products and services are transferred to customers, which is generally 
at  the  point  of  shipment.  The  Company  delivers  products  to  customers  in  several  ways,  including:  (i)  shipment  from  the 
Company's warehouse, (ii) drop-shipment directly from the supplier, or (iii) electronic delivery for software licenses. 

Significant Judgments: 

Principal versus Agent Considerations 

The Company is the principal for sales of all hardware, software and certain services, including self-branded warranty programs. 
The Company considers itself the principal in these transactions as it has control of the product or service before it is transferred 
to the customer. When the Company provides self-branded warranty programs, it engages a third party, generally the original 
equipment manufacturer, to cover the fulfillment of any obligations arising from these contracts. These revenues and associated 
third-party  costs  are  amortized  over  the  life  of  the  contract  on  a  straight-line  basis.  The  Company  recognizes  the  previously 
described revenue and cost of goods sold on a gross basis. 

The Company is the agent for third-party service contracts, including product warranties and supplier-hosted software. These 
service contracts are sold separately from the products, and the Company often serves as the agent for the contract on behalf of 
the original equipment manufacturer. The Company's responsibility is to arrange for the provision of the specified service by the 
original equipment manufacturer, and the Company does not control the specified service before it is transferred to the customer. 
Because the Company acts as an agent, revenue is recognized net of cost at the time of sale. 

Related to the Company’s Intelisys business, the Company acts as a master agent connecting independent sales partners with 
service providers or suppliers who offer telecom and cloud services to end-customers. Intelisys’ sales partners earn commission 
payments from those service providers or suppliers on end-customer sales. Intelisys provides commission processing services to 
sales partners, earning a percentage of the commission stream. Because the Company acts as an agent, revenue is recognized on 
a net basis. 

Variable Considerations 

For certain transactions, products are  sold  with a right  of return  and  may also provide  other  rebates or incentives,  which are 
accounted for as variable consideration. The Company estimates returns allowance based on historical experience and reduces 
revenue  accordingly.  The  Company  estimates  the  amount  of  variable  consideration  for  rebates  and  incentives  by  using  the 
expected value or the most likely amount to be given to the customer and reduces the revenue by those estimated amounts. These 
estimates are reviewed and updated as necessary at the end of each reporting period.

Contract Balances 

The Company records contract assets and liabilities for payments received from customers in advance of services performed. 
These assets and liabilities are the result of the sales of the Company's self-branded warranty programs and other transactions 
where control has not yet passed to the customer. These amounts are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the 
periods presented. 

Practical Expedients & Accounting Policy Elections 

•  

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract - These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses as 
the  amortization  period  is  generally  one  year  or  less.  The  Company  expenses  costs  associated  with  obtaining  and 
fulfilling contracts as incurred. 

•   Shipping costs - The Company accounts for certain shipping and handling activities as fulfillment costs and expenses 

them as incurred. 

•   Significant financing components - The Company has elected not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the 
effects of a significant financing component as the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when 
the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will 
generally be one year or less. 

•   Sales tax and other related taxes - Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental 

authorities are excluded from revenue.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2018, the Company acquired the assets of RPM Software ("RPM"), a business process 
software developer with focus in the telecom channel business for calculating and paying agency commissions in an automated 
cloud-based system. During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Canpango, a global 
Salesforce  implementation  and  consulting  business  with  deep  knowledge  of  customer  relationship  management  (CRM)  and 
integration with telecom systems. Intelisys Global  was also acquired during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The total 
combined purchase price for all companies, net of cash acquired, was approximately $32.2 million. The purchase price of these 
collective acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair  values on the 
transaction date. Purchase accounting was finalized during the year ended June 30, 2019. The impact of these acquisitions was 
not  material  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements.  In  connection  with  these  acquisitions  during  fiscal  2019,  the  Company 
recognized $0.9 million in acquisition-related costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated 
Income Statements. 

POS Portal 

On July 31, 2017, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of POS Portal a leading provider of payment devices and 
services primarily to the small and midsized market segment in the United States. POS Portal joined the Worldwide Barcode, 
Networking & Security segment.

Under the share purchase agreement, the all-cash transaction included an initial purchase price of approximately $144.9 million 
paid in cash at closing. The Company paid an additional $3.4 million for customary closing adjustments during the six months 
ended  December  31,  2017.    The  Company  acquired  $4.6  million  in  cash,  net  of  debt  payoff  and  other  customary  closing 
adjustments, resulting in $143.8 million net cash paid for POS Portal. The Company paid a cash earnout payment of $13.2 million 
during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. A portion of the purchase price was placed into escrow to indemnify the Company 
for certain pre-acquisition damages. As of June 30, 2019, the balance available in escrow was $0.2 million. In connection with 
the POS Portal acquisition during fiscal 2018, the Company recognized $0.2 million in acquisition-related cost included in selling, 
general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Income Statements. 

The purchase price of this acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair 
values on the transaction date. Purchase accounting for this acquisition was finalized during the quarter ended December 31, 
2017. The goodwill balance is primarily attributed to expanding the Company's high-value capabilities and market reach across 
all  payment  channels.  Goodwill,  identifiable  intangible  assets  and  the  related  deferred  tax  liability  are  not  deductible  for  tax 
purposes. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented for the acquisition of POS Portal because such results are not 
material to our consolidated results.

(7)       Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets 

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company performs its annual goodwill 
impairment test during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or whenever indicators of impairment are present. The reporting 
units  utilized  for  goodwill  impairment  tests  align  directly  with  our  operating  segments,  Worldwide  Barcode,  Networking  & 
Security and Worldwide Communications & Services. The testing includes the determination of each reporting unit's fair value 
using a discounted cash flows model compared to each reporting unit's carrying value. Key assumptions used in determining fair 
value include projected growth and operating margin, working capital requirements and discount rates. During fiscal years ended 
June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, no impairment charges related to goodwill were recorded. 

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, by reportable segment, are set forth in 
the table below. Additions to goodwill for fiscal years 2019 and 2018 are due to the recent acquisitions.

The Company has a bank overdraft facility with Bank  of  America  used  by  its  European  subsidiaries.  The  facility  allows  the 
Company  to  disburse  checks  in  excess  of  bank  balances  up  to  $14.0  million  U.S.  dollar  equivalent  for  up  to  seven  days. 
Borrowings under the overdraft facility bear interest at a rate equal to a spread of 1.0% over the applicable currency's London 
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") with a zero percent floor. Since borrowings outstanding under the overdraft facility at June 30, 
2019 were denominated in euros, which bore a negative LIBOR rate, the interest applicable to the Company was 1.0%.  There 
was no outstanding balance on the overdraft facility at June 30, 2018.

Credit Facility 

The Company has a multi-currency senior secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and 
a syndicate of banks (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). On April 30, 2019, the Company amended this credit facility to expand 
the borrowing capacity and extend its maturity to April 30, 2024. The Amended Credit Agreement includes (i) a five-year $350 
million  multi-currency  senior  secured  revolving  credit  facility  and  (ii)  a  five-year  $150  million  senior  secured  term  loan 
facility. Pursuant to an “accordion feature,” the Company may increase its borrowings up to an additional $250 million for a total 
of  up to $750 million, subject to obtaining additional  credit commitments  from  the  lenders participating  in the increase. The 
Amended Credit Agreement allows for the issuance of up to $50 million for letters of credit, subject to obtaining additional credit 
commitments  from  the  lenders  participating  in  the  increase.  The  Company  incurred  debt  issuance  costs  of  $1.1  million  in 
connection with the amendments to the Amended Credit Agreement on April 30, 2019. These costs were capitalized to other non-
current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and added to the unamortized debt issuance costs from the previous credit 
facility. 

At the Company's option, loans denominated in U.S. dollars under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, 
bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the LIBOR or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's net leverage ratio, 
calculated  as  total  debt  less  up  to  $15  million  of  unrestricted  domestic  cash  to  trailing  four-quarter  adjusted  earnings  before 
interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") (the "Leverage Ratio"). This spread ranges from 1.00% to 
1.75%  for  LIBOR-based  loans  and  0.00%  to  0.75%  for  alternate  base  rate  loans.    Additionally,  the  Company  is  charged 
commitment  fees ranging from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending  upon the  Leverage Ratio,  on  non-utilized borrowing  availability, 
excluding swingline loans. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for the substitution of a new interest rate benchmark upon 
the  transition  from  LIBOR,  subject  to  agreement  between  the  Company  and  the  administrative  agent.  Borrowings  under  the 
Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and a pledge of up to 65% 
of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined to be either material or a subsidiary borrower 
as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the revolving credit facility, the payment of cash dividends is

The  spread  in  effect  as  of  June 30,  2019  was  1.75%  for  LIBOR-based  loans  and  0.75%  for  alternate  base  rate  loans.  The 
commitment  fee  rate  in  effect  as  of  June 30,  2019  was  0.30%.  The  Amended  Credit  Agreement  includes  customary

Leverage Ratio must be less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 at all times. In addition, the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio (as 
such term is defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) must be at least 3.00 to1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. In the 
event  of  a  default,  customary  remedies  are  available  to  the  lenders,  including  acceleration  and  increased  interest  rates.  The 
Company was in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility as of June 30, 2019. 

The average daily balance on the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, during the fiscal years ended June 30, 
2019 and 2018 was $296.4 million and $269.5 million, respectively. There was $149.2 million and $156.0 million available for 
additional borrowings as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. There were no letters of credit issued under the multi-currency 
revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018. 

Mississippi Revenue Bond 

On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the State of Mississippi in order to provide financing for the 
acquisition  and  installation  of  certain  equipment  to  be  utilized  at  the  Company’s  Southaven,  Mississippi  facility  through  the 
issuance of an industrial development revenue bond. The bond matures on September 1, 2032 and accrues interest at a rate equal 
to 30-day LIBOR plus a spread of 0.85%. The terms of the bond allow for payment of interest only for the first 10 years of the 
agreement and then, starting on September 1, 2018 through 2032, principal and interest payments are due until the maturity date

or the redemption of the bond. The agreement also provides the bondholder with a put option, exercisable only within 180 days 
of  each 5th anniversary  of  the  agreement,  requiring  the  Company  to  pay  back  the  bonds  at 100% of  the  principal  amount 
outstanding. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under this bond. The interest rate at June 30, 
2019 and 2018 was 3.280% and 2.855%, respectively.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities 

The Company’s results of operations could be materially impacted by significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates and 
interest  rates.    In  an  effort  to  manage  the  exposure  to  these  risks,  the  Company  periodically  enters  into  various  derivative 
instruments. The Company’s accounting policies for these instruments are based on whether the instruments are designated as 
hedge or non-hedge instruments in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company records all derivatives on the consolidated balance 
sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments or the ineffective portions of cash flow hedges are 
adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense. 

Foreign Currency Derivatives – The Company conducts a portion of its business internationally in a variety of foreign currencies. 
The exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from foreign currency denominated assets and 
liabilities and transactions arising from non-functional currency financing or trading activities. The Company’s objective is to 
preserve the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows. The Company attempts to hedge transaction 
exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and once these opportunities have been exhausted the Company uses 
currency options and forward contracts or other hedging instruments with third parties. These contracts will periodically hedge 
the exchange of various currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Brazilian real, euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, 
Colombian peso, Chilean peso, and Peruvian nuevo sol.  While the Company utilizes foreign exchange contracts to hedge foreign 
currency exposure, the Company's foreign exchange policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative 
purposes.

The Company had contracts outstanding with notional amounts of $110.7 million and $74.6 million for the exchange of foreign 
currencies as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. To date, the Company has chosen not to designate these derivatives as 
hedging instruments, and accordingly, these instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense. 
Summarized  financial  information  related  to  these  derivative  contracts  and  changes  in  the  underlying  value  of  the  foreign 
currency exposures are as follows:

Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset 
by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses and are included in other income and expense.  Foreign exchange 
gains and losses are generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar 
versus the euro, British pound versus the euro and other currencies versus the U.S. dollar. 

Interest Rates – The Company’s earnings are also affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on 
interest expense from floating rate debt instruments. The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by using 
interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure and to achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus floating rate debt. The Company 
entered into an interest rate swap agreement, which was subsequently  settled, and entered into a new amended agreement on 
April 30, 2019. The swap agreement has a notional amount of $100.0 million, with a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to mature 
on April 30, 2024 and a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to mature April 30, 2026.  This swap agreement is designated as a cash 
flow hedge to hedge the variable rate interest payments on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate differentials paid or received 
under the swap agreement are recognized as adjustments to interest expense. To the extent the swap is effective in offsetting the 
variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the swap are not included in current earnings but are reported as 
other comprehensive income (loss). There was no ineffective portion to be recorded as an adjustment to earnings for fiscal years 
ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. 

The components of the cash flow hedge included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, net of income taxes, in the 
Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity, are as follows:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an 
orderly  transaction  between  market  participants  at  the  measurement  date.    Under  this  guidance,  the  Company  is  required  to 
classify certain assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy,  which groups  fair value-measured assets and liabilities 
based upon the following levels of inputs: 

•  

•  

•  

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  inputs  which  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 (i.e. supported by little or no market activity). 

The assets and liabilities maintained by the Company that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis include 
deferred  compensation  plan  investments,  forward  foreign  currency  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate  swap  agreements  and 
contingent consideration owed to the previous owners  of  Intelisys.  The  carrying  value  of debt  listed in Note  8  -  Short-Term

The investments in the deferred compensation plan are held in a "rabbi trust" and include mutual funds and cash equivalents for 
payment of non-qualified benefits for certain retired, terminated or active employees.  These investments are recorded to prepaid 
and  other  current  assets  or  other  non-current  assets  depending  on  their  corresponding,  anticipated  distributions  to  recipients, 
which are reported in accrued expenses and other current liabilities or other long-term non-current liabilities, respectively. 

Derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts, are measured using the market approach on a recurring basis 
considering foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency dealers and interest rates quoted 
by  banks  (Level  2).  Fair  values  of  interest  rate  swaps  are  measured  using  standard  valuation  models  with  inputs  that  can  be 
derived from observable market transactions, including LIBOR spot and forward rates (Level 2). Foreign currency contracts and 
interest rate swap agreements are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as prepaid expenses and other current assets or 
accrued expenses and other current liabilities, depending on the respective instruments' favorable or unfavorable positions.  See 
Note 9 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities. 

The  Company  recorded  contingent  consideration  liabilities  at  the  acquisition  date  of  Network1,  Intelisys  and  POS  Portal 
representing the amounts payable to  former shareholders, as outlined under  the terms of the applicable purchase agreements, 
based upon the achievement of a projected earnings measure, net of specific pro forma adjustments. The current and non-current 
portions  of  these  obligations  are  reported  separately  on  the  Consolidated  Balance  Sheets.  The  fair  value  of  the  contingent 
considerations (Level 3) are determined using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Subsequent changes 
in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities are recorded to the change in fair value of contingent consideration line 
item in the Consolidated Income Statements.  Fluctuations due to foreign currency translation are captured in other comprehensive 
income  through  the  changes  in  foreign  currency  translation  adjustments  line  item  as  seen  in  Note  16  -  Accumulated  Other 
Comprehensive (Loss) Income. 

POS Portal is part of the Company's Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security Segment. Network1 and Intelisys are part of 
the Company's Worldwide Communications & Services segment. 

The table below provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the Company’s contingent considerations for the Network1,

The fair values of amounts owed are recorded in the current portion of contingent consideration and the long-term portion of 
contingent consideration in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.  In accordance with ASC 805, the Company will revalue 
the  contingent  consideration  liability  at  each  reporting  date  through  the  last  payment,  with  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the 
contingent consideration reflected in the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item on the Company's Consolidated 
Income Statement that is included in the calculation of operating income.  The fair value of the contingent consideration liability 
associated with future earnout payments is based on several factors, including: 

•  
•  
•  

estimated future results, net of pro forma adjustments set forth in the purchase agreements; 
the probability of achieving these results; and 
a discount rate reflective of the Company's creditworthiness and market risk premium associated with the United 
States market. 

A change in any of these unobservable inputs can significantly change the fair value of the contingent consideration. Valuation 
techniques and significant observable inputs used in recurring Level 3 fair value measurements for our contingent consideration 
liabilities as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows.

POS Portal 

The contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of POS Portal was paid in full during the fiscal year ended June 30, 
2018. The expense  from the  change in  the  fair  value  of  the contingent consideration recognized  in the  Consolidated Income 
Statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 totaled less than $0.1 million. 

Worldwide Communications & Services Segment 

Network1 

The final earnout payment was paid to the former shareholders of Network1 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, therefore 
no liability for the contingent consideration related to Network1 is recognized as of June 30, 2019. The expense from the change 
in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements totaled $2.5 million for the fiscal 
year ended June 30, 2019, which is primarily for agreed upon adjustments in the final payment. 

As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $10.7 million, all of which was classified as current. The 
expense from the change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements totaled 
$21.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, which was primarily due to a change in estimate of the fiscal year 2018 
payment  to  the  former  shareholders  of  Network1,  additional  agreed  upon  adjustments  to  the  projected  final  settlement  and 
improved actual results for the for fiscal year 2018. 

Intelisys 

The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Intelisys recognized at June 30, 2019 was $77.9 million, 
of  which  $38.4  million  is  classified  as  current.  The  expense  from  the  change  in  fair  value  of  the  contingent  consideration 
recognized  in  the  Consolidated  Income  Statements  totaled  $12.7  million  for  the  fiscal  year  ended June 30,  2019,  which  was 
primarily due to the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and improved projected results. Although 
there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are anticipated to range up to $85.1 
million, based on the Company’s best estimate of the earnout calculated on a multiple of adjusted earnings. 

The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Intelisys recognized at June 30, 2018 was $97.5 million 
of  which  $32.2  million  is  classified  as  current.  The  expense  from  the  change  in  fair  value  of  the  contingent  consideration 
recognized  in  the  Consolidated  Income  Statements  totaled  $16.0  million  for  the  fiscal  year  ended June 30,  2018,  which  was 
largely driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and an adjustment to the probability weights 
in the discounted cash flow model.

Share-Based Compensation 

Share-Based Compensation Plans 

The Company has awards outstanding from two share-based compensation plans (the 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the 
2013  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan). Awards  are  currently  only  being  granted  under  the  2013  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan. As  of 
June 30,  2019,  there  were  1,740,768  shares  available  for  future  grant  under  the  2013  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan. All  of  the 
Company’s share-based compensation plans are shareholder approved, and it is the Company’s belief that such awards align the 
interests of its employees and directors  with  those  of  its shareholders. Under  the plans, the  Company  is  authorized to  award 
officers, employees, consultants and  non-employee  members of the  Board of Directors  various  share-based payment awards, 
including options to purchase common stock and restricted stock. Restricted stock can be in the form of a restricted stock award 
("RSA"), restricted stock unit ("RSU") or a performance unit ("PU"). An RSA is common stock that is subject to risk of forfeiture 
or other restrictions that lapse upon satisfaction of specified conditions. An RSU represents the right to receive shares of common 
stock in the future with the right to future delivery of the shares subject to risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that lapse upon 
satisfaction of specified conditions. 

The Company accounts  for its share-based compensation  awards in accordance  with ASC 718 –  Stock  Compensation,  which 
requires all share-based compensation to be recognized in the income statement based on fair value and applies to all awards 
granted, modified, canceled or repurchased after the effective date. Total share-based compensation included as a component of 
selling, general and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Income Statements was as follows:

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the Company granted stock options for 2,110 shares. These options vest annually 
over 3 years and have a 10-year contractual life. These options were granted with an exercise price that is no less than 100% of 
the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of the grant. 

The fair value of each option (for purposes of calculation of share-based compensation) was estimated on the date of grant using 
the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula that uses assumptions determined at the date of grant. Use of this option pricing 
model requires the input of subjective assumptions. These  assumptions  include  estimating the  length  of time  employees  will 
retain their vested stock options before exercising them ("expected term"), the estimated volatility of the Company's common 
stock price over the expected term ("expected volatility") and the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting 
requirements ("forfeitures"). Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimate of the fair value of share-
based compensation and, consequently, the related amount recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements. 

The Company used the following weighted-average assumptions for the options granted during the following fiscal years:

The weighted-average expected term of the options represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding based 
on  historical  trends  and  behaviors  of  certain  groups  and  individuals  receiving  these  awards.  The  expected  volatility  is 
predominantly based on the historical volatility of our common stock for a period approximating the expected term. The risk-free 
interest rate reflects the interest rate at grant date on zero-coupon United States governmental bonds that have a remaining life 
similar to the expected option term. The dividend yield assumption was based on the Company's dividend payment history and 
management's expectations of future dividend payments.

The aggregate intrinsic value was calculated using the market price of the Company's stock on June 30, 2019, and the exercise 
price for only those options that have an exercise price that is less than the market price of our stock. This amount will change as 
the market price per share changes. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the  fiscal  years ended June 30, 
2019, 2018 and 2017 was $0.4 million, $0.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

statement for more information about these grants. 
(2) The RSU's granted to executive officers on January 29, 2019 contain performance-based vesting conditions for the period January 1, 2019 through December

the conclusion of the respective performance cycle. See the Company's proxy statement for more information about these grants. 
(3) Under the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, non-employee directors receive annual awards of restricted stock, as opposed to stock options. The number of 
shares of restricted stock to be granted is established from time to time by the Board of Directors. Currently, the number of shares of restricted stock awarded 
annually to each non-employee director generally is determined by dividing $100,000 by the equity award value of the common stock on the date of grant, as 
defined in the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The equity award value means the value per share based on a 45-day averaging of the fair market value of the 
common stock over a specified period of time, or the fair market value of the common stock on a specified date. These awards will generally vest in full on the 
day that is six months after the date of grant or upon the earlier occurrence of (i) the director’s termination of service as a director by reason of death, disability 
or retirement or (ii) a change in control by the Company. The compensation expense associated with these awards will be recognized on a pro-rata basis over this 
period.

Additionally, the Company  maintains a  non-qualified, unfunded  deferred compensation  plan  that  allows eligible  members of 
management  to  defer  a  portion  of their  compensation  in  addition  to  receiving  discretionary  matching  contributions  from  the 
Company. Employer contributions are vested over a five-year period.

Income Taxes 

On  December  22,  2017,  the  U.S.  government  enacted  the Tax  Cuts  and  Jobs Act  (the  “Tax Act”).  The Tax Act  reduced  the 
corporate federal tax rate from 28% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 and implemented a modified territorial tax system. Since 
the Company has a June 30th fiscal year-end, the lower tax rate resulted in a blended U.S. statutory federal rate of approximately 
28% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.  The U.S. statutory  federal rate is 21% for fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and 
subsequent fiscal years. As part of of the Tax Act, U.S. companies are required to pay a one-time transition tax on the deemed 
repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings and to remeasure deferred tax assets and liabilities. 

The Tax Act includes a mandatory deemed repatriation of all undistributed foreign earnings that are subject to a U.S. income tax 
as part of the transition. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized provisional income tax expense of $9.6 
million  for  a  one-time  transition  tax  liability  on  total  post-1986  foreign  subsidiaries’  earnings  and  profits  (“E&P”)  that  were 
previously deferred from U.S. income taxes. The Company completed its analysis for this item withing the permitted measurement 
period under the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) and determined an adjustment was necessary. As a 
result,  a  discrete  tax  benefit  for  $0.2  million  was  recorded  during  the  quarter  ended  December  31,  2018. The  Company  will 
continue to distribute the earnings of its Canadian subsidiary, but earnings from Brazil will continue to be considered retained 
indefinitely for reinvestment and all other foreign geographies are immaterial. It has been the practice of the Company to reinvest 
those earnings in the businesses outside the United States. Apart from the one-time transition tax, any incremental deferred income 
taxes on the unremitted foreign earnings are not expected to be material. 

As part of accounting for the Tax Act, the Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at 
which such deferred taxes are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 
the Company recognized provisional discrete income tax benefit of $1.6 million for the remeasurement of the Company’s deferred 
tax asset and liability balances. The Company completed its analysis for this item within the permitted measurement period under 
the guidance of SAB 118 and determined that the provisional amount should not be adjusted. 

The Tax Act created a provision known as global intangible low-tax income ("GILTI") that imposes a tax on certain earnings of 
foreign subsidiaries. The GILTI tax became effective for the Company during fiscal year 2019 and an accounting policy election 
was made to treat the tax as a current period expense. The Company recognized GILTI tax of approximately $0.4 million for the 
fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

million valuation allowance for foreign tax credits, and $0.3 million valuation allowance for state income tax credits, and a less 
than $0.1 million valuation allowance for the notional interest deduction, where it was determined that, in accordance with ASC 
740, it is more likely than not that they cannot be utilized. 

The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 during fiscal year 2018 which required the Company to recognize excess tax benefits and 
tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit for stock award settlements that were previously recognized as additional paid-
in-capital. As a result of these changes, the Company recognized net tax expense of less than $0.1 million and $1.0 million for 
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

June 30, 2019 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $1.2 million, $1.0 million of which, if recognized, 
would affect the effective tax rate. This reflects a decrease of $0.9 million on a gross basis over the prior fiscal year. The Company 
does not expect that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve 
months. 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the 
accompanying Consolidated Income Statement.  Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability line in 
the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The total amount of interest and penalties accrued, but excluded from the table below were $1.0 
million, $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  A reconciliation of 
the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Financial  results  for  the  Belgium  business  produced  pre-tax  loss  of  less  than  $0.1  million  for  the  year  ended  June 30,  2019. 
However,  the  Belgium  business  reported  cumulative  taxable  income  for  two  of  the  five  prior  years.  In  the  judgment  of 
management, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized.  A corporate tax reform law was enacted in 
Belgium on December 25, 2017, which reduces the corporate tax rate from 33% to 25% over a three-year period. The company 
remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which such deferred taxes are expected to reverse in 
the future.  As a result, the Company recognized income tax expense of $1.0 million during the year ended June 30, 2018. 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, a lawsuit filed by ScanSource Brazil with the Brazilian Supreme Court in 2014 regarding 
the tax treatment of certain Brazilian state-provided tax benefits was settled in Scansource Brazil’s favor.  As a result, Scansource 
Brazil was awarded and recovered a tax settlement. The Company recorded, discrete to the June 30, 2017 quarter, the income tax 
benefit associated with that recovery equal to approximately $4.5 million. 

A Supplemental Law was issued in Brazil during the Company's fiscal year 2019 which affirmed that Brazilian state-provided 
benefits are not subject to income tax. The Company recorded, discrete to the June 30, 2019 quarter, an income tax benefit of 
$3.1 million related to the confirmation of the recovery of state-provided tax benefits. 

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the United 
States  federal,  various  state,  local  and  foreign  jurisdictions.  In  the  normal  course  of  business,  the  Company  is  subject  to 
examination by taxing authorities in countries in which it operates. With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to 
state and local, or non-United States income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before June 30, 2014.

On July 6, 2016, the Company entered into an amended agreement to continue to lease approximately 741,000 square feet for 
distribution,  warehousing  and  storage  purposes  in  a  building  located  in  Southaven,  Mississippi. The  term  of the  lease  is  135 
months with 2 consecutive 5-year extension options. 

On December 7, 2017 the Company entered into a new lease agreement and amended an existing lease agreement for certain 
information  technology  infrastructure  located  in  the  Greenville,  South  Carolina  facility  expiring  in  2020.  The  Company 
determined each lease qualified as a capital lease and recorded a capital lease obligation equal to the present value of the minimum 
lease payments of $1.9 million.

Commitments and Contingencies 

A majority of the Company’s net revenues in fiscal years 2019, 2018 and 2017 were received from the sale of products purchased 
from the Company’s ten largest suppliers. The Company has entered into written agreements with substantially all of its major 
suppliers. While the Company’s agreements with most of its suppliers contain standard provisions for periodic renewals, these 
agreements generally permit termination by either party without cause upon 30 to 120 days' notice. 

The Company or its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to lawsuits arising out of operations. Although there can be no 
assurance, based upon information known to the Company, the Company believes that any liability resulting from an adverse 
determination  of  such  lawsuits  would  not  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  financial  condition  or  results  of 
operations. 

During fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $2.9 million in proceeds from a legal tax settlement, net of 
attorney fees, in Brazil. Of the total settlement, $2.5 million is included in selling, general and administrative expenses and $0.4 
million is included in interest income on the Consolidated Income Statements.   During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, the 
Company recognized $12.8 million in proceeds from a legal settlement, net of attorney fees, included in other income (expense), 
net on the Consolidated Income Statements. 

Capital Projects 

The Company expects total capital expenditures to range from $4.0 million to $6.0 million during fiscal year 2020 primarily for 
rental equipment investments, IT investments and facility improvements. 

Pre-Acquisition Contingencies 

During the Company's due diligence for the Network1 acquisition, several pre-acquisition contingencies were identified regarding 
various Brazilian federal and state tax exposures. The Company recorded indemnification receivables that are reported gross of 
the pre-acquisition contingency liabilities as the funds were escrowed as part of the acquisition. The sellers deposited $6.4 million 
and $12.3 million into the escrow account for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. In addition, $25.3 million was released 
from the escrow account during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The amount available after the impact of foreign currency 
translation, as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, for future pre-acquisition contingency settlements or to be released to the sellers was 
$6.5 million and $24.1 million, respectively. 

The  table  below  summarizes  the  balances  and  line  item  presentation  of  Network1's  pre-acquisition  contingencies  and 
corresponding indemnification receivables in the Company's consolidated balance sheet:

The net decline in the value of pre-acquisition contingencies for Network1 is primarily  due to the expiration of the statute of 
limitations  for  identified  pre-acquisition  contingencies.  The  amount  of  reasonably  possible  undiscounted  pre-acquisition 
contingencies as of June 30, 2019 is estimated to range from $6.0 million to $22.3 million at this time, of which all exposures are 
indemnifiable under the share purchase agreement.

On July 1, 2019, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of intY and its CASCADE cloud services distribution platform 
for a purchase price of approximately $51.0 million. As an additional element of the Company's cloud and digital strategy, intY's 
CASCADE solution provides the Company's sales partners with another route to market to enable key strategic cloud services 
and aid in growth of their recurring revenue practices. 

On August  20,  2019,  the  Company  announced  its  plan  to  divest  its  physical  product  distribution  businesses  in  Europe,  UK, 
Mexico,  Colombia,  Chile,  Peru  and  the  Company’s  Miami-based  export  operations.    ScanSource  will  continue  to  operate  its 
digital businesses in these locations, including the businesses acquired within the last year, intY, Canpango, and Intelisys Global.  
The  operations  in  these  locations  have  been  performing  below  Management’s  expectations.   The  Company  is  beginning  the 
process to market and sell these businesses. There can be no assurance that this sale process will result in a transaction or the 
timing of any transaction.

ITEM 9A. 

Controls and Procedures. 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

We  maintain  "disclosure  controls  and  procedures,"  as  such  term  is  defined  in  Rule 13a-15(e)  under  the  Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports 
that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified 
in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our 
management,  including  our  Chief  Executive  Officer  and    Chief  Financial  Officer,  as  appropriate,  to  allow  timely  decisions 
regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that 
disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  no  matter  how  well  conceived  and  operated,  can  provide  only  reasonable,  not  absolute, 
assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and 
procedures,  our  management  necessarily  was  required  to  apply  judgment  in  evaluating  the  cost-benefit  relationship  of  those 
disclosure  controls  and  procedures.  The  design  of  any  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  also  is  based  in  part  upon  certain 
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its 
stated  goals  under  all  potential  future  conditions.  Our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable 
assurance that the controls and procedures will meet their objectives. 

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive 
Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer  have  concluded  that  our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  as  of  June 30,  2019,  were 
effective in providing reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. 

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as 
defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may 
not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the 
risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or 
procedures may deteriorate. 

We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019. However, the Canpango  
and RPM businesses acquired during the current fiscal year has been excluded from management's assessment of internal controls 
over financial reporting. The operations of Canpango and RPM, acquired August 20, 2018 and December 20, 2018, represent less 
than 1% of our consolidated revenues and less than 2% of our consolidated total assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. 
In  making  this  assessment,  we  used  the  criteria  set  forth  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway 
Commission  ("COSO")  in  2013  Internal  Control –  Integrated  Framework.  Based  on  its  assessment  using  those  criteria,  our 
management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2019. 

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019 has been audited by Grant Thornton 
LLP,  an  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm,  as  stated  in  their  Report  of  Independent  Registered  Certified  Public 
Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting which is included with the Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 
of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated herein by reference. 

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 

2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Other Information. 

We will be holding our next annual shareholders’ meeting on or about January 30, 2020 (the “2020 Annual Meeting”), which is 
more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the 2018 annual shareholders meeting. Therefore, we must receive shareholder 
proposals intended to be presented at the 2020 Annual Meeting for possible inclusion in the proxy materials relating to such 
meeting by September 10, 2019, which is a reasonable time before we expect to print and mail the proxy statement for the 2020 
Annual Meeting. 

Shareholders intending to present a proposal or to nominate a candidate for the election of directors at the 2020 Annual Meeting, 
but not to have the proposal or nomination considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for that meeting, must be eligible and 
give us advance written notice in accordance with our Bylaws. 

Our Bylaws provide that such notice shall set forth in writing: (i) whether the shareholder is providing the notice at the request 
of  a  beneficial  holder  of  shares,  whether  the  shareholder,  any  such  beneficial  holder  or  any  nominee  has  any  agreement, 
arrangement  or  understanding  with,  or  has  received  any  financial  assistance,  funding  or  other  consideration  from,  any  other 
person with respect to the investment by the shareholder or such beneficial holder in the Company or the matter the notice relates 
to, and the details thereof, including the name of such other person (the shareholder, any beneficial holder on whose behalf the 
notice  is  being  delivered,  any  nominees  listed  in  the  notice  and  any  persons  with  whom  such  agreement,  arrangement  or 
understanding  exists  or  from  whom  such  assistance  has  been  obtained  are  hereinafter  collectively  referred  to  as  “Interested 
Persons”), (ii) the name and address of all  Interested Persons,  (iii) a complete listing  of  the  record and  beneficial ownership 
positions (including number or amount) of all equity securities and debt instruments, whether held in the form of loans or capital 
market instruments, of the Company or any of its subsidiaries held by all Interested Persons, (iv) whether and the extent to which 
any hedging, derivative or other transaction is in place or has been entered into within the prior six months preceding the date of 
delivery of the notice by or for the benefit of any Interested Person with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their 
respective securities, debt instruments or credit ratings, the effect or intent of which transaction is to give rise to gain or loss as a 
result of changes in the trading price of such securities or debt instruments or changes in the credit ratings for the Company, its 
subsidiaries or any of their respective securities or debt instruments (or, more generally, changes in the perceived creditworthiness 
of the Company or its subsidiaries), or to increase or decrease the voting power of such Interested Person, and if so, a summary 
of the material terms thereof, and (v) a representation that the shareholder is a holder of record of stock of the Company that 
would be entitled to vote at the meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose the matter set forth 
in the notice. As used herein, “beneficially owned” has the meaning provided in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act. 
The notice shall be updated not later than 10 days after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at 
the meeting to provide any material changes in the foregoing information as of the record date. 

Because the 2020 Annual Meeting is not scheduled to be held within a period that commences 30 days before the anniversary 
date of the 2018 Annual Meeting and ends within 60 days after the anniversary date of the 2018 Annual Meeting, the deadline 
for shareholders to provide written notice of intent to make nominations for the election of directors at the 2020 Annual Meeting 
(but not for inclusion in the proxy materials relating to such meeting) will be November 1, 2019. 

If the notice relates to the nomination of directors it must also contain (i) the information regarding each nominee required by 
paragraphs (a), (e) and (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K adopted by the SEC (or the corresponding provisions of any successor 
regulation), (ii) each nominee’s signed consent to serve as a director if elected, and (iii) whether each nominee is eligible for 
consideration as an independent director under the relevant standards contemplated by Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K (or the 
corresponding  provisions  of  any  successor  regulation).  We  may  also  require  any  proposed  nominee  to  furnish  such  other 
information, including completion of our director’s questionnaire, as it may reasonably require to determine whether the nominee 
would be considered “independent” as a director or as a member of the audit committee of the Board of Directors under the 
various rules and standards applicable to the Company. In addition to complying with the foregoing procedures, any shareholder 
recommending a director candidate must also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, including the rules 
and regulations under such Act. In the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors is increased and 
either all of the nominees for director or the size of the increased Board of Directors is not publicly announced or disclosed by 

92 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
us at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual  meeting, a shareholder’s notice shall also be 
considered timely hereunder, but only  with respect to nominees  for any  new positions created by such increase, if it shall be 
delivered to the Secretary of the Company at our principal executive office not later than the close of business on the tenth day 
following the first date all of such nominees or the size of the increased Board of Directors shall have been publicly announced 
or disclosed. 

Our Nominating Committee will consider nominees recommended by shareholders that are properly brought before the Company. 
The proper procedures shareholders must follow to receive nominee consideration are outlined in this section. These nominees 
will be evaluated in the same manner as Board nominees as described in our proxy statement. 

For business proposals to be brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must give timely notice to the 
Corporate Secretary and such other business  must  otherwise be a proper matter for shareholder  action. Notice other  than the 
nomination of directors  must contain: (i)  the text of the proposal  to be  presented,  including the text of any  resolutions to be 
proposed for consideration by shareholders and (ii) a brief  written  statement  of the  reasons  why  such  shareholder favors the 
proposal. The deadline for shareholders to provide written notice of their intent to bring a proposal (other than a nomination for 
the election of directors) at the 2020 Annual Meeting (but not for inclusion in the proxy materials relating to such meeting) is 
November 1, 2019. 

To be in proper written form, a shareholder’s notice to the Corporate Secretary must set forth in writing as to each matter the 
shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the 
annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on 
our books, of the shareholder proposing such business and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, 
(iii) the class and number of shares of our common stock which are owned beneficially and of record by the shareholder and such 
beneficial owner and (iv) any material interest of the shareholder or such beneficial owner in such business.
