NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)
Note A – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the "company") were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations at and for the periods presented. The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Quarter End
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on previously reported amounts.
Note B – Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU No. 2020-04"). ASU No. 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The amendments in the ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2020-04 on a prospective basis in March 2020.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("Topic 326"). Topic 326 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. On January 1, 2020, the company adopted Topic 326 using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, which increased the allowance for credit losses by $47,011 ($35,935 net of tax). Increases in the allowance for credit losses relate to the required change from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model, and the related change in timing of loss recognition where an allowance for credit losses is now applied to all receivables, at a rate dependent on the credit characteristics of the collective pool each customer is in. Refer to Notes C and G.
Note C – Significant Accounting Policies
Except for the changes below, no material changes have been made to the company’s significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on February 13, 2020, for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Trade accounts and notes receivable
Trade accounts and notes receivable are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the receivables' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected. Receivables are written off against the allowance when management believes the receivable balance is confirmed to be uncollectible.

ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)
Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information about expected credit losses and an age-based reserve model. Inputs to the model include information about historical credit losses, customer credit ratings, past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current receivable-specific risk characteristics such as changes in the economic and industry environment, or other relevant factors.
Expected credit losses are estimated on a collective (pool) basis, when similar risk characteristics exist, based on customer credit ratings, which include both externally acquired as well as internally determined credit ratings. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis.
Note D – Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Note E – Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill of companies acquired, allocated to the company’s business segments, is as follows:
| Global Components | Global ECS | Total | ||||||||||||||||||
| Balance as of December 31, 2019 (a) | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||
| Foreign currency translation adjustment | ( | ( | ( | |||||||||||||||||
| Balance as of June 27, 2020 (a) | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||
(a) The total carrying value of goodwill as of June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 in the table above is reflected net of $1,588,955 of accumulated impairment charges, of which $1,287,100 was recorded in the global components business segment and $301,855 was recorded in the global enterprise computing solutions ("ECS") business segment.
During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of significant declines in macroeconomic conditions and equity valuations, and the implementation of regulatory restrictions brought forth by the COVID-19 pandemic, and due to historically low head-room, the company determined that it was more likely than not that an impairment may exist within the Americas components and eInfochips reporting units. The company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test for these reporting units and determined goodwill was not impaired. As of March 28, 2020, the fair value of the Americas components and eInfochips reporting units, within the global components business segment, exceeded their carrying values by less than 10 %.
The company estimated the fair value of these reporting units using the income approach. For the purposes of the income approach, fair value was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk adjusted rate. The fair value conclusions as of March 28, 2020 for the Americas components and eInfochips reporting units are highly sensitive to changes in the assumptions used in the income approach which include forecasted revenues, gross profit margins, operating income margins, working capital cash flow, forecasted capital expenditures, perpetual growth rates, and long-term discount rates, among others, all of which require significant judgments by management. The company has used recent historical performance, current forecasted financial information, and broad-based industry and economic statistics as a basis to estimate the key assumptions utilized in the discounted cash flow model. These key assumptions are inherently uncertain and require a high degree of estimation and judgment and are subject to change based on future changes, industry and global economic and geo-political conditions, and the timing and success of the implementation of current strategic initiatives. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on estimated future cash flows is highly uncertain and will largely depend on the
10
ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)
outcome of future events, which could result in a goodwill impairment going forward. The impacts of COVID-19 were considered in the interim impairment analysis as of March 28, 2020 through the use of probability weighted cash flow scenarios and an increase in the discount rates. The company concluded no further indicators of potential impairment existed, and as such, no interim impairment test was required at June 27, 2020.
During the second quarter of 2019, as a result of the company's downward revision of forecasted future earnings and the decision to wind down the company's personal computer and mobility asset disposition business, the company determined that it was more likely than not that an impairment may exist within the Americas components and Asia-Pacific components reporting units. The company evaluated its other four reporting units and concluded an interim impairment analysis was not required based on the results of those reporting units and historical levels of headroom in each of those reporting units. The interim goodwill impairment analysis resulted in a partial goodwill impairment charge of $509,000 ($457,806 net of tax) with approximately $600,000 of goodwill remaining within the Americas components reporting unit and a full impairment charge of $61,175 ($61,175 net of tax) within the Asia-Pacific components reporting unit.

During the second quarter of 2019, the company initiated actions to further integrate two global components businesses. These businesses held indefinite-lived trade names with a carrying value of $101,000 . As a result of the company’s decision to integrate these brands, we determined the useful lives of the trade names were no longer indefinite. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2019, the company began amortizing these trade names over their estimated remaining useful lives. The trade names were tested for impairment during the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the change in estimated useful lives. The company estimated the fair value of the trade names to be $55,000 using the relief from royalty method and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $46,000 ($34,653 net of tax). The drivers of the impairment were primarily due to the shortened useful lives of the asset and a decline of the forecasted revenues attributable to the trade names as integration to the Arrow brand occurs over the estimated remaining useful lives.
During the second quarter of 2020 and 2019, the company recorded amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets of $9,734 and $11,413 , respectively. During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets was $19,689 23,343

During the first quarter of 2020, the company entered into an EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa) asset securitization program under which it will continuously sell its interest in designated pools of trade accounts receivables of certain of its subsidiaries in the EMEA region, at a discount, to a special purpose entity, which in turn sells certain of the receivables to
12
ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)
unaffiliated financial institutions and conduits administered by such unaffiliated financial institutions on a monthly basis. The company may sell up to €400,000 under the EMEA asset securitization program, which matures in January 2023, subject to extension in accordance with its terms. The program is conducted through Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V., an entity structured to be bankruptcy remote. The company is deemed the primary beneficiary of Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. as the company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity from the transfer of the trade accounts receivables into the special purpose entity. Accordingly, Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. is included in the company’s consolidated financial statements.
Receivables sold under the program are excluded from “Accounts receivable, net” on the company’s consolidated balance sheets and cash receipts are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The purchase price is paid in cash when the receivables are sold. Certain unsold receivables held on Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. are pledged as collateral to unaffiliated financial institutions. These unsold receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net” in the company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The company continues servicing the receivables which were sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under the program. The company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the company’s consolidated balance sheets as the company estimates that the fee it receives to service these receivables approximates the fair market compensation to provide the servicing activities.
During the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the company sold approximately €410,770 and €899,491 , or $448,913 and $977,366 , of accounts receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under the EMEA securitization program. There were €292,403 , or $324,227 , of receivables sold to unaffiliated financial institutions that were uncollected as of June 27, 2020. Total collateralized accounts receivables of approximately €173,786 , or $192,554 , were held by Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. at June 27, 2020. Any accounts receivables held by Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings if there are outstanding balances under the EMEA asset securitization program. The assets of the special purpose entity cannot be used by the company for general corporate purposes. Additionally, the financial obligations of Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. to the unaffiliated financial institution under the program are limited to the assets it owns and there is no recourse to the company for receivables that are uncollectible as a result of the insolvency or inability to pay of the account debtors.
The EMEA asset securitization program includes terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in material compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 2020 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
Note H – Debt

The company has $200,000 in uncommitted lines of credit. There were $75,000 and $60,000 of outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted lines of credit at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. These borrowings were provided on a short-term basis and the maturity is agreed upon between the company and the lender.

The company has a $2,000,000 revolving credit facility maturing in December 2023. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness, acquisitions, and as support for the company’s commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a Eurocurrency rate plus a spread (1.18 % at June 27, 2020), which is based on the company’s credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.24 % at June 27, 2020. The facility fee, which is based on the company’s credit ratings, was .20 % of the total borrowing capacity at June 27, 2020. The company had no outstanding borrowings and $10,000 in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The company has a North American asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $1,200,000 under the program, which matures in June 2021. The program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation (“AFC”), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The North American asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and

related debt obligation remain on the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40 % at June 27, 2020), or an effective interest rate of .87 % at June 27, 2020. The facility fee is .40 % of the total borrowing capacity.
At June 27, 2020, the company had no outstanding borrowings under the North American asset securitization program. At December 31, 2019, the company had $400,000 in outstanding borrowings under the North American asset securitization program, which was included in “Long-term debt” in the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Total collateralized accounts receivable of approximately $2,073,200 and $2,217,800 were held by AFC and were included in “Accounts receivable, net” in the company’s consolidated balance sheets at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Any accounts receivable held by AFC would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings before repayment of any outstanding borrowings under the North American asset securitization program.
Both the revolving credit facility and North American asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in material compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 2020 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
During April 2020, the company repaid $209,366 principal amount of its 6.00 % notes due April 2020.
In the normal course of business, certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $3,461 and $13,426 for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $14,492 and $28,537 for the second quarter and first six months 2019, respectively.
Note I – Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The company utilizes a fair value hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

(b) The company has an 8.4% equity ownership interest in Marubun Corporation and a portfolio of mutual funds with quoted market prices. The company recorded an unrealized gain of $4,964 and an unrealized loss of $5,031 for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, on equity securities held at the end of the quarter. The company recorded an unrealized gain of $8 and $1,842 for the second quarter and first six months of 2019, respectively, on equity securities held at the end of the quarter.
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate primarily to goodwill, identifiable intangible assets, and long-lived assets (see Notes D and E). The company tests these assets for impairment if indicators of potential impairment exist or at least annually if indefinite lived.
Derivative Instruments
The company uses various financial instruments, including derivative instruments, for purposes other than trading. Certain derivative instruments are designated at inception as hedges and measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Derivative instruments not designated as hedges are marked-to-market each reporting period with any unrealized gains or losses recognized in earnings.
Interest Rate Swaps
The company manages the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuances by entering into various forward-starting interest rate swaps, designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of interest rate swaps are recorded in the shareholders’ equity section in the company’s consolidated balance sheets in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” and will be reclassified into income over the life of the anticipated debt issuance or in the period the hedged forecasted cash flows are deemed no longer probable to occur. Gains and losses on interest rate swaps are recorded within the line item “Interest and other financing expense, net” in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of interest rate swaps are estimated using market quotes.

In May 2019, the company entered into a series of ten-year forward-starting interest rate swaps (the “2019 swaps”). The 2019 swaps were designated as cash flow hedges managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by June 2020. In February 2020, the company determined that certain of the forecasted cash flows were no longer probable and de-designated the hedging relationship. In February 2020, the company re-designated the 2019 swaps in a new cash flow hedge managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by June 2023. In May 2020, the company terminated the 2019 swaps for a cash payment of $48,378 , which is reported in the "cash flows from financing activities" section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. During the six months ended June 27, 2020, losses of $1,194 , before taxes, were reclassified from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” ("AOCI") to “Interest and other financing expense, net” related to forecasted cash flows that were deemed no longer probable to occur. At June 27, 2020 losses of $35,796 , net of taxes, remained in AOCI related to the May 2019 swaps.
During the second quarter and six months ended June 27, 2020, losses of $243 and $29,799 , respectively, related to interest rate swaps were recorded in other comprehensive loss, net of taxes. During the second quarter ended June 29, 2019, losses of $6,849 related to interest rate swaps were recorded in other comprehensive loss, net of taxes.
Foreign Exchange Contracts
The company’s foreign currency exposure relates primarily to international transactions where the currency collected from customers can be different from the currency used to purchase the product. The company’s transactions in its foreign operations are denominated primarily in the following currencies: Euro, Chinese Renminbi, Indian Rupee, Canadian Dollar, and British Pound. The company enters into foreign exchange forward, option, or swap contracts (collectively, the “foreign exchange contracts”) to facilitate the hedging of foreign currency exposures resulting from inventory purchases and sales and mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to these transactions. Foreign exchange contracts generally have terms of no more than six months. Gains or losses on these contracts are deferred and recognized when the underlying future purchase or sale is recognized or when the corresponding asset or liability is revalued. The company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for trading purposes. The risk of loss on a foreign exchange contract is the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties, which the company minimizes by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions. The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts are estimated using market quotes. The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts inclusive of foreign exchange contracts designated as a net investment hedge at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $1,031,031 and $929,966 , respectively.
Gains and losses related to non-designated foreign currency exchange contracts are recorded in “Cost of sales” in the company’s consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses related to foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Cost of sales,” “Selling, general, and administrative expenses,” and “Interest and other financing expense, net” based upon the nature of the underlying hedged transaction, in the company’s consolidated statements of operations and were not material for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 and 2019.

Note M – Contingencies
Environmental Matters
In connection with the purchase of Wyle Electronics ("Wyle") in August 2000, the company acquired certain of the then outstanding obligations of Wyle, including Wyle's indemnification obligations to the purchasers of its Wyle Laboratories division for environmental clean-up costs associated with any then existing contamination or violation of environmental regulations. Under the terms of the company's purchase of Wyle from the sellers, the sellers agreed to indemnify the company for certain costs associated with the Wyle environmental obligations, among other things. In 2012, the company entered into a settlement agreement with the sellers pursuant to which the sellers paid $110,000 and the company released the sellers from their indemnification obligation. As part of the settlement agreement the company accepted responsibility for any potential subsequent costs incurred related to the Wyle matters. The company is aware of two Wyle Laboratories facilities (in Huntsville, Alabama and Norco, California) at which contaminated groundwater was identified and will require environmental remediation. In addition, the company was named as a defendant in several lawsuits related to the Norco facility and a third site in El Segundo, California which have now been settled to the satisfaction of the parties.
The company expects these environmental liabilities to be resolved over an extended period of time. Costs are recorded for environmental matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for environmental liabilities are adjusted periodically as facts and circumstances change, assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental liabilities are difficult to assess and estimate due to various unknown factors such as the timing and extent of remediation, improvements in remediation technologies, and the extent to which environmental laws and regulations may change in the future. Accordingly, the company cannot presently estimate the ultimate potential costs related to these sites until such time as a substantial portion of the investigation at the sites is completed and remedial action plans are developed and, in some instances, implemented. To the extent that future environmental costs exceed amounts currently accrued by the company, net income would be adversely impacted and such impact could be material.
Accruals for environmental liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses” and “Other liabilities” in the company’s consolidated balance sheets. The company has determined that there is no amount within the environmental liability range that is a better estimate than any other amount, and therefore has recorded the accruals at the minimum amount of the ranges.

As successor-in-interest to Wyle, the company is the beneficiary of various Wyle insurance policies that covered liabilities arising out of operations at Norco and Huntsville. To date, the company has recovered approximately $37,000 from certain insurance carriers relating to environmental clean-up matters at the Norco site. The company is considering the best way to pursue its potential claims against insurers regarding liabilities arising out of operations at Huntsville. The resolution of these matters will likely take several years. The company has not recorded a receivable for any potential future insurance recoveries related to the Norco and Huntsville environmental matters, as the realization of the claims for recovery are not deemed probable at this time.
Environmental Matters - Huntsville
In February 2015, the company and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (“ADEM”) finalized and executed a consent decree in connection with the Huntsville, Alabama site. Characterization of the extent of contaminated soil and groundwater is complete and has been approved by ADEM. Health-risk evaluations and a Corrective Action Development Plan were approved by ADEM in 2018, opening the way for pilot testing of on-site remediation in late 2019. Pilot testing is currently underway. Approximately $6,900 was spent to date and the company currently anticipates no additional investigative and related expenditures. The cost of subsequent remediation at the site is estimated to be between $3,500 and $10,000 .
Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.
Environmental Matters - Norco
In October 2003, the company entered into a consent decree with Wyle Laboratories and the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (the “DTSC”) in connection with the Norco site. Subsequent to the decree, a Remedial Investigation Work Plan was approved by DTSC in April 2005, the required investigations were performed, and a final Remedial Investigation Report was submitted early in 2008. In 2008, a hydraulic containment system (“HCS”) was installed as an interim remedial measure to capture and treat groundwater before it moves into the adjacent off-site area. In September 2013, the DTSC approved the final Remedial Action Plan (“RAP”) for actions in five on-site areas and one off-site area. As of 2018, the remediation measures described in the RAP had been implemented and were being monitored. A Five Year Review (“FYR”) of the HCS submitted to DTSC in December 2016 found that while significant progress was made in on-site and off-site groundwater remediation, contaminants were not sufficiently reduced in a key off-site area identified in the RAP. This exception triggered the need for additional off-site remediation that began in 2018 and was completed in mid-2019. Routine progress monitoring of groundwater and soil gas continue on-site and off-site.
Approximately $75,100 was spent to date on remediation, project management, regulatory oversight, and investigative and feasibility study activities. The company currently estimates that these activities will give rise to an additional $6,800 to $17,700 . Project management and regulatory oversight include costs incurred by project consultants for project management and costs billed by DTSC to provide regulatory oversight.
Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work under the RAP is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.

In 2019, the company determined that from 2015 to 2019 a limited number of non-executive employees, without first obtaining required authorization from the company or the United States government, had facilitated product shipments with an aggregate total invoiced value of approximately $4,770 , to resellers for reexports to persons covered by the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 or other United States sanctions and export control laws. The company has voluntarily reported these activities to the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and the United States Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”), and conducted an internal investigation and terminated or disciplined the employees involved. BIS has closed its investigation and issued the company a warning letter without referring the matter for further proceedings. No penalties have been imposed by BIS. The company has cooperated

fully and intends to continue to cooperate fully with OFAC with respect to its review, which may result in the imposition of penalties, which we are currently not able to estimate.
During the first six months of 2020, the company recorded reserves and other adjustments of approximately $32,700 primarily related to foreign tax and other loss contingencies. These reserves are principally associated with transactional taxes on activity from several prior years, not significant to any one year.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the “company”) is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions. The company has one of the world’s broadest portfolios of product offerings available from leading electronic components and enterprise computing solutions suppliers, coupled with a range of services, solutions, and tools that help industrial and commercial customers introduce innovative products, reduce their time to market, and enhance their overall competitiveness. The company has two business segments, the global components business segment and the global enterprise computing solutions (“ECS”) business segment. The company distributes electronic components to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and contract manufacturers (“CMs”) through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers (“VARs”) and managed service providers (“MSPs”) through its global ECS business segment. For the second quarter of 2020, approximately 71% of the company’s sales were from the global components business segment and approximately 29% of the company’s sales were from the global ECS business segment.
The company’s financial objectives are to grow sales faster than the market, increase the markets served, grow profits faster than sales, and increase return on invested capital. To achieve its objectives, the company seeks to capture significant opportunities to grow across products, markets, and geographies. To supplement its organic growth strategy, the company continually evaluates strategic acquisitions to broaden its product and value-added service offerings, increase its market penetration, and expand its geographic reach.
Executive Summary
Consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 decreased by 10.0% and 10.4%, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods. The decrease for the second quarter of 2020 was driven by a 10.4% decrease in the global components business segment sales and a 9.1% decrease in global ECS business segment sales. The decrease for the first six months of 2020 was driven by an 11.4% decrease in the global components business segment sales and a 8.0% decrease in the global ECS business segment sales. Adjusted for the change in foreign currencies, and the closure of the company's personal computer and mobility asset disposition business (referred to as “impact of wind down”), consolidated sales as adjusted decreased 8.3% and 8.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.
Net income attributable to shareholders increased to $132.8 million and $182.3 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with a net loss attributable to shareholders of $549.0 million and $408.2 million in the year-earlier periods. The following items impacted the comparability of the company’s results:
Second quarters of 2020 and 2019:
•restructuring, integration, and other charges of $0.7 million in 2020 and $19.9 million in 2019 (excluding the impact of wind down);

•Arrow Financing Solutions (“AFS”) notes receivable reserves of $0.2 million in 2020 and AFS notes receivable reserves and inventory write-downs of $15.9 million in 2019; and
•net gain on investments of $10.9 million in 2020 and $1.4 million in 2019.
First six months of 2020 and 2019:
•restructuring, integration, and other charges of $9.8 million in 2020 and $31.0 million in 2019 (excluding the impact of wind down);
•identifiable intangible asset amortization of $19.7 million in 2020 and $17.8 million in 2019 (excluding the impact of wind down);
•impairments of long-lived assets of $4.9 million in 2020 and goodwill and other impairments $623.1 million in 2019;
•gains from wind down of business of $11.8 million in 2020 and losses from wind down of business of $114.4 million, inclusive of $74.9 million of impairments of long-lived assets in 2019;
26
•Digital inventory write-downs of $20.1 million in 2019;

•net loss on investments of $5.9 million in 2020 and net gain on investments of $6.7 million in 2019; and
•loss on disposition of businesses, net, of $0.9 million in 2019.
Excluding the aforementioned items, net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 decreased to $126.1 million and $205.1 million, respectively, compared with $136.6 million and $300.3 million in the year-earlier periods. Net income in the first six months of 2020 also included charges of approximately $32.7 million, net of tax, primarily related to foreign tax and other loss contingencies within the Global ECS business.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 10, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus to be a pandemic. COVID-19 has caused substantial disruption to travel, business activities, and global supply chains, significant volatility in global financial markets, and has resulted in a dramatic increase in unemployment, particularly in the U.S.
To date, the company has experienced some limitations in employee resources resulting from travel restrictions and “stay at home” orders. Despite these restrictions, the company continues to efficiently manage the global supply chain requirements of our customers and suppliers. Throughout 2020, the company has experienced strong demand for solutions that enable business continuity and work from home capabilities. Management is actively monitoring the impact of the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry and workforce.
The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact the company’s results will depend primarily on future developments, including the severity and duration of the crisis and the impact of actions taken and that will be taken to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. These future developments are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. The global economic impact from COVID-19 may adversely affect the company's results of operations in the future and may affect the credit condition of some of our customers, which could increase delays in customer payments and credit losses.
Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information, including:
•Sales, gross profit, and operating expenses as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as "changes in foreign currencies") by re-translating prior period results at current period foreign exchange rates, the impact of dispositions by adjusting the company’s operating results for businesses disposed, as if the dispositions had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented (referred to as "dispositions"), the impact of the company’s personal computer and mobility asset disposition business (referred to as "wind down"), the impact of inventory write-downs related to the digital business (referred to as “digital inventory write-downs and recoveries”), and the impact of the notes receivable reserves and inventory write-downs related to the AFS business (referred to as “AFS notes receivable reserves and recoveries” and “AFS inventory write-downs and recoveries,” respectively).
•Operating income as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, loss on disposition of businesses, net, AFS notes receivable reserves and credits and inventory write-downs and recoveries, digital inventory write-downs and recoveries, the impact of non-cash charges related to goodwill, trade names, and long-lived assets, and the impact of wind down.
•Net income attributable to shareholders as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, loss on disposition of businesses, net, AFS notes receivable reserves and credits and inventory write-downs and recoveries, digital inventory write-downs and recoveries, net gains and losses on investments, the impact of non-cash charges related to goodwill, trade names, and long-lived assets, certain tax adjustments, and the impact of wind down.
Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company’s operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

Sales
Substantially all of the company’s sales are made on an order-by-order basis, rather than through long-term sales contracts. As such, the nature of the company’s business does not provide for the visibility of material forward-looking information from its customers and suppliers beyond a few months. Following is an analysis of net sales by reportable segment (in millions):

The decrease for the first six months of 2020 was driven by a decrease in global components segment sales of $1.2 billion, or 11.4%, and a decrease in global ECS business segment sales of $321.6 million, or 8.0%. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions and wind down, consolidated sales decreased 8.3% and 8.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.
Compared with the year-earlier period, global components business segment sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 decreased $549.7 million, or 10.4%, and $1.2 billion, or 11.4%, respectively, as reported, and decreased $431.7 million, or 8.4%, and $941.3 million, or 9.2%, respectively, as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and the wind down. Decreases were primarily due to lower sales volumes in the Americas and EMEA regions, driven by softer demand in the automotive and aerospace industries, partially offset by stronger demand in the APAC components region.
Compared with the year-earlier period, global ECS business segment sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 decreased $188.4 million, or 9.1%, and decreased by $321.6 million, or 8.0%, respectively, as reported, and decreased $163.3 million, or 8.0%, and decreased by $260.6 million, or 6.6%, respectively, as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and dispositions. Decreases in sales were primarily due to lower sales volumes driven by softer demand for servers and networking solutions, offset partially by strong demand in the network security and storage verticals.

Impairments
During the second quarter of 2019, the company committed to a plan to close its personal computer and mobility asset disposition business within the global components business segment. In light of the plan, the company performed an impairment analysis of the long-lived assets of the personal computer and mobility asset disposition business in accordance with ASC 360 and recorded a pre-tax impairment charge of $74.9 million to write-down certain assets to estimated fair value. The company also recorded $4.9 million and $6.9 million in impairment charges related to various other long-lived assets in the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, unrelated to the personal computer and mobility asset disposition business.
During the second quarter of 2019, as a result of the company’s downward revision of forecasted future earnings previously disclosed on July 15, 2019 and the decision to wind down the company’s personal computer and mobility asset disposition business, the company determined that it was more likely than not that an impairment may exist within the Americas components and Asia-Pacific components reporting units. The company evaluated its other four reporting units and concluded an interim impairment analysis was not required based on the results of those reporting units and historical levels of headroom in each of those reporting units. The interim goodwill impairment analysis related to the Americas components reporting unit resulted in partial goodwill impairment charge of $509.0 million ($457.8 million net of tax) with $601.3 million of goodwill remaining in the reporting unit and full impairment of $61.2 million ($61.2 million net of tax) within the Asia-Pacific components reporting unit.
The company estimated the fair value of these reporting units using the income approach. For the purposes of the income approach, fair value was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk adjusted rate. The fair value conclusion as of June 29, 2019 for the Americas components reporting unit is highly sensitive to changes in the assumptions used in the income approach which include forecasted revenues, gross profit margins, operating income margins, working capital cash flow, forecasted capital expenditures, perpetual growth rates, and long-term discount rates, among others, all of which require significant judgments by management.
During the second quarter of 2019, the company initiated actions to further integrate two global components businesses. These businesses held indefinite-lived trade names with a carrying value of $101.0 million. As a result of the company’s decision to integrate these brands, we determined the useful lives of the trade names were no longer indefinite. The company began amortizing these trade names over their estimated remaining useful life. The trade names were tested for impairment during the second quarter as a result of the change in estimated useful lives. The company estimated the fair value of the trade names to be $55.0 million using the relief from royalty method and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $46.0 million ($34.7 million net of tax). The drivers of the impairment were primarily due to the shortened useful lives of the asset and a decline of the forecasted revenues attributable to the trade name as integration to the Arrow brand occurs over the estimated remaining useful life.
Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges
Restructuring initiatives relate to the company’s continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency. Integration costs are primarily related to the integration of acquired businesses within the company’s pre-existing business and the consolidation of certain operations.
2020 Charges
The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $0.7 million and $9.8 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, which includes $1.3 million and $5.0 million related to initiatives taken by the company during 2020 to improve operating efficiencies and personnel charges of $0.6 million and $3.0 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 related to the operating expense reduction program previously disclosed in July 2019.

2019 Charges
The company recorded restructuring, integration, and other charges of $19.9 million and $31.6 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2019, respectively, which includes $5.1 million and $8.1 million related to initiatives taken by the company during 2019, to improve operating efficiencies, and $3.2 million and $8.7 million, respectively, in charges related to relocation and other centralization efforts to maximize operating efficiencies. The restructuring and integration charges of $5.1 million and $8.1 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2019, respectively, relates primarily to the termination of personnel.
As of June 27, 2020, the company does not anticipate there will be any material adjustments relating to the aforementioned restructuring and integration plans. Refer to Note J, “Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges,” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the company’s restructuring and integration activities.

The company recorded operating income of $196.6 million, or 3.0% of sales, and an operating income of $334.9 million, or 2.6% of sales, in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with operating loss of $549.2 million, or (7.5)% of sales, and an operating loss of $303.6 million, or (2.1)% of sales, in the year-earlier periods. Operating income, as adjusted, was $200.3 million, or 3.0% of sales, and $356.8 million, or 2.7% of sales, in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with operating income, as adjusted, of $242.7 million, or 3.3% of sales, and $519.5 million, or 3.6% of sales, in the year-earlier periods. Operating income, as adjusted, decreased 17.5% and 31.3% for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods, on a sales decrease of 8.3% and 8.5% compared with the year-earlier periods. Operating income, as adjusted as a percentage of sales, decreased 30 bps and 90 bps for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, primarily due to the decreases in sales across both the Global Components and Global ECS businesses, and reserves and other adjustments related to foreign tax and other loss contingencies within the Global ECS business. These reserves are principally associated with transactional taxes on activity from several prior years, not significant to any one year. These operating margin declines were partially offset by a reduction in operating costs and corporate overhead due to the operating expense reduction program announced in July 2019.
Gain (Loss) on Investments, Net
The company recorded gains of $10.9 million and losses of $5.9 million on investments during the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared to gains of $1.4 million and $6.7 million, in the year earlier periods. These gains and
31
losses are due to changes in fair value of assets related to the Arrow SERP pension plan, which consist primarily of life insurance policies and mutual fund assets.
Interest and Other Financing Expense, Net
The company recorded net interest and other financing expense of $31.9 million and $75.1 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with $51.6 million and $103.5 million, in the year-earlier periods. The decrease for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 primarily relates to lower borrowings and interest rates on short term credit facilities, offset partially by decreased interest income. The decrease in interest income is attributable to lower average cash balances within the company’s cash pooling arrangements.
Income Tax
Income taxes for the interim periods presented have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. The determination of the consolidated provision for income taxes requires management to make certain judgments and estimates. Changes in the estimated level of annual pre-tax earnings, tax laws, and changes resulting from tax audits can affect the overall effective income tax rate, which impacts the level of income tax expense and net income. Judgments and estimates related to the company’s projections and assumptions are inherently uncertain; therefore, actual results could differ from projections.
For the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the company recorded a provision for income taxes of $40.9 million and $68.7 million, an effective tax rate of 23.5% and 27.3%, respectively. The company’s provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges, identifiable intangible asset amortization, the impact of tax legislation changes, gain (loss) on investments, AFS reserves and credits, impairments of long-lived assets, and the impact of wind down. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 was 24.1% and 26.3%, respectively. Included in the effective tax rate for the first six months of 2020 are approximately $7.4 million in discrete tax items related to the foreign tax and other loss contingencies.
For the second quarter and first six months of 2019, the company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $52.4 million, an effective tax rate of 8.7%, and a provision for income taxes of $1.5 million, an effective tax rate of 0.4%, respectively. The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges, identifiable intangible asset amortization, loss on disposition of businesses, the impact of U.S. tax reform, gain on investments, AFS write-downs, digital write-downs, impairments of goodwill and other long-lived assets, and the impact of the wind down. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 was 27.5% and 26.5%, respectively.
The company’s effective tax rate deviates from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate mainly due to the mix of foreign taxing jurisdictions in which the company operates and where its foreign subsidiaries generate taxable income, among other things. The increase in the effective tax rate from 8.7% for the second quarter of 2019 to 23.5% for the second quarter of 2020 is primarily driven by changes in the mix of tax jurisdictions where taxable income is generated as well as discrete items such as the non-deductible portion of goodwill impairments and changes in U.S. tax rules.

Identifiable intangible asset amortization also excludes amortization related to the noncontrolling interest.
The company recorded net income attributable to shareholders of $132.8 million and $182.3 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with a net loss attributable to shareholders of $549.0 million and $408.2 million in the year-earlier periods. Net income attributable to shareholders, as adjusted, was $126.1 million and $205.1 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively, compared with $136.6 million and $300.3 million in the year-earlier periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $205.8 million and $300.1 million, respectively, of which $183.2 million and $277.7 million, respectively, were held outside the United States. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the company’s business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world.
To achieve greater cash management agility and to further advance business objectives, during the fourth quarter of 2019, the company reversed its assertion to indefinitely reinvest certain of its foreign earnings, of which approximately $2.4 billion are available for distribution in future periods as of June 27, 2020. The company continues to indefinitely reinvest the residual $1.1 billion of undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. If the indefinitely reinvested earnings were to be distributed to the United States, the company would be required to pay withholding and other taxes. Additionally, local government regulations may restrict the company’s ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances. However, the company currently does not expect such regulations and restrictions to impact its ability to make acquisitions or to conduct operations throughout the global organization.
During the first six months of 2020, the net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities was $885.1 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $65.0 million, and the net amount of cash used for financing activities was $904.8 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $9.6 million.
During the first six months of 2019, the net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities was $76.4 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $69.2 million, and the net amount of cash used for financing activities was $245.8 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $0.7 million.
33
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
The company maintains a significant investment in accounts receivable and inventories. As a percentage of total assets, accounts receivable and inventories were approximately 72.9% at June 27, 2020 and 72.9% at December 31, 2019.
The net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities during the first six months of 2020 was $885.1 million and was primarily due to earnings from operations adjusted for non-cash items and sales of accounts receivables under the EMEA asset securitization program (see Note G), resulting in a $324.2 million operating net cash inflow.
The net amount of cash provided by the company’s operating activities during the first six months of 2019 was $76.4 million and was primarily due to a decrease in inventory purchased, the timing of payments and an increase in earnings from operations adjusted for non-cash items.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries have enacted economic aid programs, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in the United States. These programs include, among other things, deferrals of payroll taxes, indirect taxes, and corporate income tax. The deferred tax payment dates vary by jurisdiction and would generally be paid during the last quarter of 2020 or the first two quarters of 2021. Due to the expediency with which these stimulus programs have been enacted and the number of tax authorities involved, there is a high degree of uncertainty around their implementation. However, the company intends to apply any COVID-19 related tax law changes and tax incentives made available by respective countries during 2020.
Working capital as a percentage of sales, which the company defines as accounts receivable, net, plus inventory, net, less accounts payable, divided by annualized sales, was 16.7% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with 18.1% in the second quarter of 2019.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2020 was $65.0 million. The primary use of cash for investing activities included $59.5 million for capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2020 primarily include expenditures related to the build out of the company's distribution centers and investments in internally developed software.
The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2019 was $69.2 million. The uses of cash from investing activities included $81.6 million for capital expenditures and the sources of cash from investing activities included $9.5 million of proceeds from the sale of businesses. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2019 are related to investments in internally developed software and website functionality related to the digital business and the build out of a new distribution center within the EMEA region.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
The net amount of cash used for financing activities during the first six months of 2020 was $904.8 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $7.2 million of net payments for short-term borrowings, $411.7 million of net payments for long term borrowings, $48.4 million of payments upon the settlement of forward starting interest rate swaps, $209.4 million of repayments of the principal amount of the company's 6.00% notes due April 2020, and $231.7 million of repurchases of common stock. The primary source of cash from financing activities during the second quarter of 2020 was $3.7 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
The net amount of cash used for financing activities during the first six months of 2019 was $245.8 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $173.4 million of net payments from short-term borrowings and $200.9 million of repurchases of common stock. The sources of cash from financing activities during the first six months of 2019 were $119.0 million of net proceeds from long-term bank borrowings and $9.6 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
The company has a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in December 2023. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness, acquisitions, and as support for the company’s commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a Eurocurrency rate plus a spread (1.18% at June 27, 2020), which is based on the company’s credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.24% at June 27, 2020. The facility fee, which is based on the company’s credit ratings, was .20% of the total borrowing capacity at June 27, 2020. The company had no outstanding borrowings and $10.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at
34
June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, the average daily balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility was $24.0 million and $43.3 million, respectively.
The company has a commercial paper program and the maximum aggregate balance of commercial paper outstanding may not exceed the borrowing capacity of $1.2 billion. The company had no outstanding borrowings under this program at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, the average daily balance outstanding under the commercial paper program was $94.4 million and $848.6 million, respectively. The program had a weighted-average effective interest rate of 2.01% at June 27, 2020.
The company has a North American asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries, which matures June 2021. The company may borrow up to $1.2 billion under the North American asset securitization program. The program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation (“AFC”), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate plus a spread (.40% at June 27, 2020), or an effective interest rate of .87% at June 27, 2020. The facility fee is .40% of the total borrowing capacity. At June 27, 2020, the company had no outstanding borrowings under the North American asset securitization program. At December 31, 2019, the company had $400.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the North American asset securitization program. During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, the average daily balance outstanding under the North American asset securitization program was $509.9 million and $1.1 billion, respectively.
Both the revolving credit facility and North American asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in material compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 2020 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
The company has $200.0 million in uncommitted lines of credit. There were $75.0 million and $60.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted lines of credit at June 27, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. These borrowings were provided on a short-term basis and the maturity is agreed upon between the company and the lender. The lines had a weighted-average effective interest rate of 1.55% at June 27, 2020. During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, the average daily balance outstanding under the uncommitted lines of credit was $10.0 million and $13.4 million, respectively.
In May 2019, the company entered into a series of ten-year forward-starting interest rate swaps (the “2019 swaps”) which locked in an average treasury rate of 2.33% on a total aggregate notional amount of $300.0 million. The 2019 swaps were designated as cash flow hedges managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by June 2020. In February 2020, the company determined that certain of the forecasted cash flows were no longer probable and de-designated the hedging relationship. In February 2020, the company re-designated the 2019 swaps in a new cash flow hedge managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by June 2023. In May 2020, the company cash settled and terminated the May 2019 swaps for a total of $48.4 million.
In April 2020, the company entered into a series of ten-year forward-starting interest rate swaps (the “April 2020 swaps”) which locked in an average swap rate of 0.97% on a total aggregate notional amount of $300.0 million and expire in December 2024. The 2020 swaps were designated as cash flow hedges managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by December 2025.
In May 2020, the company entered into a series of ten-year forward-starting interest rate swaps (the “May 2020 swaps”) which locked in an average swap rate of 0.90% on a total aggregate notional amount of $300.0 million and expire in June 2022. The May 2020 swaps were designated as cash flow hedges managing the risk of variability in interest rates of future expected debt issuance by June 2023.
During April 2020, the company repaid $209.4 million principal amount of its 6.00% notes due April 2020.
In the normal course of business, certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly, they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The global economic impact from COVID-19 may adversely affect the company’s ability to access capital markets. Management believes that the company’s current cash availability, its current borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and asset securitization programs, and its expected ability to generate future operating cash flows are sufficient to meet its projected cash
35
flow needs for the foreseeable future. The company's current committed and undrawn liquidity stands at over $3.2 billion in addition to $205.8 million of cash on hand at June 27, 2020. The company also may issue debt or equity securities in the future and management believes the company will have adequate access to the capital markets, if needed. The company continually evaluates its liquidity requirements and would seek to amend its existing borrowing capacity or access the financial markets as deemed necessary.
Contractual Obligations
The company has contractual obligations for short-term and long-term debt, interest on short-term and long-term debt, operating leases, purchase obligations, and certain other long-term liabilities that were summarized in a table of Contractual Obligations in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Since December 31, 2019, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations of the company outside the ordinary course of the company’s business, except as follows:
•During the first quarter of 2020, the company entered into an EMEA asset securitization program under which it will continuously sell its interest in designated pools of trade accounts receivables of certain of its subsidiaries in the EMEA region, at a discount, to a special purpose entity, which in turn sells certain of the receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions and conduits administered by such unaffiliated financial institutions on a monthly basis. The company may sell up to €400.0 million under the EMEA asset securitization program, which matures in January 2023, subject to extension in accordance with its terms. The company continues servicing the receivables which were sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under the program. During the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the company sold approximately €410.8 million and €899.5 million, or $448.9 million and $977.4 million, of accounts receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under the EMEA securitization program. Total collateralized accounts receivables of approximately €173.8 million, or $192.6 million, were held by Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. at June 27, 2020 (see Note G).
36
Share-Repurchase Programs
The following table shows the company’s Board approved share-repurchase programs as of June 27, 2020 (in thousands):
| Month of Board Approval | Dollar Value Approved for Repurchase | Dollar Value of Shares Repurchased | Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet be Purchased Under the Program | |||||||||||||||||
| December 2016 | $ | 400,000 | $ | 400,000 | $ | — | ||||||||||||||
| December 2018 | 600,000 | 486,572 | 113,428 | |||||||||||||||||
| Total | $ | 1,000,000 | $ | 886,572 | $ | 113,428 | ||||||||||||||
The amounts repurchased during 2020 were pursuant to the company’s $600,000 share-repurchase program that was approved by the Board on December 11, 2018. During July 2020, the company's Board approved an additional $600,000 share-repurchase program. The 2018 and 2020 share-repurchase programs have no fixed expiration dates and are discretionary in nature. The Board has the ability to modify, suspend, or discontinue the programs at any time.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the first quarter of 2020, the company entered into an EMEA asset securitization program under which it will continuously sell its interest in designated pools of trade accounts receivables of certain of its subsidiaries in the EMEA region, at a discount, to a special purpose entity, which in turn sells certain of the receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions and conduits administered by such unaffiliated financial institutions on a monthly basis. The company may sell up to €400.0 million under the EMEA asset securitization program, which matures in January 2023, subject to extension in accordance with its terms. The program is conducted through Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V., an entity structured to be bankruptcy remote. The company is deemed the primary beneficiary of Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. as the company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity from the transfer of the trade accounts receivables into the special purpose entity. Accordingly, Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. is included in the company’s consolidated financial statements.
Receivables sold under the program are excluded from “Accounts receivable, net” on the company’s consolidated balance sheets and cash receipts are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The purchase price is paid in cash when the receivables are sold. Certain unsold receivables held on Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. are pledged as collateral to unaffiliated financial institutions. These unsold receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net” in the company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The company continues servicing the receivables which were sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under the program. The company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the company’s consolidated balance sheets as the company estimates that the fee it receives to service these receivables approximates the fair market compensation to provide the servicing activities.
During the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the company sold approximately €410.8 million and €899.5 million, or $448.9 million and $977.4 million, of accounts receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under the EMEA securitization program. There were €292.4 million, or $324.2 million, of receivables sold to unaffiliated financial institutions that were uncollected as of June 27, 2020. Total collateralized accounts receivables of approximately €173.8 million, or $192.6 million, were held by Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. at June 27, 2020. Any accounts receivables held by Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings if there are outstanding balances under the EMEA asset securitization program. The assets of the special purpose entity cannot be used by the company for general corporate purposes. Additionally, the financial obligations of Arrow EMEA Funding Corp B.V. to the unaffiliated financial institution under the program are limited to the assets it owns and there is no recourse to the company for receivables that are uncollectible as a result of the insolvency or inability to pay of the account debtors.
The EMEA asset securitization program includes terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in material compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 2020 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
37
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. The company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
On January 1, 2020, the company adopted Topic 326 using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, which increased the allowance for credit losses by $47.0 million ($35.9 million net of tax). Increases in the allowance for credit losses relate to the required change from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model, and the related change in timing of loss recognition where an allowance for credit losses is now applied to all receivables, at a rate dependent on the credit characteristics of the collective pool each customer is in. Refer to Notes B, C, and G.
During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of significant declines in macroeconomic conditions and equity valuations, and the implementation of regulatory restrictions brought forth by the COVID-19 pandemic, and due to historically low head-room, the company determined that it was more likely than not that an impairment may exist within the Americas components and eInfochips reporting units. The company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test for these reporting units and determined goodwill was not impaired. As of March 28, 2020, the fair value of the Americas components and eInfochips reporting units, within the global components business segment, exceeded their carrying values by less than 10%. Refer to Note E.
There were no additional changes during the second quarter of 2020 to the items disclosed as Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following is intended to restate and supplement the Risk Factor entitled “General business conditions are vulnerable to the effects of epidemics, such as COVID-19, which could materially disrupt the company’s business,” which was incorporated in and a part of the company’s 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Based on recent events, this Risk Factor is currently viewed as a significant risk to the company. Aside from the foregoing, there were no material changes to the company’s risk factors as discussed in Item 1A - Risk Factors in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
General business conditions are vulnerable to the effects of epidemics and pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which could materially disrupt the company’s business and have a negative impact on the company’s financial results and financial condition.
The company is vulnerable to the general economic effects of epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the recent outbreak of COVID-19, there has been a substantial curtailment of travel and business activities, which is causing significant disruptions to the U.S. and global economy. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the company’s results will depend primarily on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the severity and duration of the crisis and the impact of actions taken and that will be taken to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. For example, if COVID-19 continues to spread, the company may need to limit operations or implement additional restrictions as a result of widespread government restrictions. In addition, a U.S. or global recession or a banking crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, financial results and financial condition, including by reducing the demand for our products and services, increasing customer defaults and reducing our access to capital.
To date, the company has experienced limitations in employee resources resulting from travel restrictions and “stay at home” orders. Despite these restrictions, the company continues to efficiently manage the global supply chain requirements of our customers and suppliers.
