NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands except per share data)

(Unaudited)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

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

These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the company's audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Quarter End

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

Reclassification

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

Note B – Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting ("ASU No. 2017-09"). ASU No. 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. Effective April 2, 2017, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2017-09 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2017-09 did not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) ("ASU No. 2017-07"). ASU No. 2017-07 requires that the service cost component of pension expense be included in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees, with the other components of pension expense being classified outside of a subtotal of income from operations. ASU No. 2017-07 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied retrospectively for the presentation requirements and prospectively for the capitalization of the service cost component requirements. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2017-07 is not expected to have a material impact on the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) ("ASU No. 2017-04"). ASU No. 2017-04 eliminates step 2 from the annual goodwill impairment test. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2017-04 on a prospective basis. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2017-04 would not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations unless step 1 of the annual goodwill impairment test fails.

In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-16, Income Taxes - Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (Topic 740) ("ASU No. 2016-16"). ASU No. 2016-16 clarifies the accounting for the current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. Effective April 2, 2017, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2016-16 on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2016-16 did not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) ("ASU No. 2016-15"). ASU No. 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2016-15 on a retrospective basis. The

(Unaudited)

adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2016-15 did not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) ("ASU No. 2016-13"). ASU No. 2016-13 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Stock Compensation - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718) ("ASU No. 2016-09"). ASU No. 2016-09 revises the accounting treatment for excess tax benefits, minimum statutory tax withholding requirements, and forfeitures related to share-based awards. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted the recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies on a prospective basis and reclassified excess tax benefits in the consolidated statements of cash flows on a retrospective basis. The company elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 did not materially impact the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU No. 2016-02"). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the entity to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting expense recognition in the income statement. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2019, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. While the company continues to evaluate the effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, the company expects most existing operating lease commitments will be recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption.

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Topic 825) ("ASU No. 2016-01"). ASU No. 2016-01 revises the classification and measurement of investments in certain equity investments and the presentation of certain fair value changes for certain financial liabilities measured at fair value. ASU No. 2016-01 requires the change in fair value of many equity investments to be recognized in net income. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied prospectively. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-01.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU No. 2014-09"). ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers 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. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of 2017. ASU No. 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. In March, April, May, and December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) ("ASU No. 2016-08"); ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing ("ASU No. 2016-10"); ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients ("ASU No. 2016-12"); and ASU No. 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements ("ASU No. 2016-19"), respectively. ASU No. 2016-08, ASU No. 2016-10, ASU No. 2016-12, and ASU No. 2016-19 provide supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to ASU No. 2014-09, and must be adopted concurrently with the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09, ASU No. 2016-08, ASU No. 2016-10, ASU No. 2016-12, and ASU No. 2016-19.

In 2014, the company established an implementation team (“team”) and engaged external advisers to develop a multi-phase plan to assess the company’s business and contracts, as well as any changes to processes or systems to adopt the requirements of the new revenue standard. The team has updated the assessment for new ASU updates and for newly acquired businesses. The team is in the process of finalizing its conclusions on several aspects of the standard including principal versus agent considerations, identification of performance obligations, and the determination of when control of goods and services transfers to the company’s customers. Additionally, the team is in the process of evaluating the impact of the expanded disclosure requirements.

During the first six months of 2017, the company acquired an additional 11.9% of the common shares of Data Modul AG for $23,350, increasing the company's ownership interest in Data Modul to 69.2%. The impact of this acquisition was not material to the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

2016 Acquisitions

During 2016, the company completed three acquisitions for $63,869, net of cash acquired. The impact of these acquisitions was not material to the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note D – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired.

The company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The allowances for doubtful accounts are determined using a combination of factors, including the length of time the receivables are outstanding, the current business environment, and historical experience. The company also has notes receivables with certain customers. As of July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the company has one customer with a combined note and accounts receivable balance of approximately $27,145 and $20,000, respectively. The customer became delinquent on its repayment of the note during the fourth quarter of 2016. The company believes that it will recover all amounts due; however, it is possible that it could incur a loss.

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

The company has a $1,800,000 revolving credit facility maturing in December 2021. 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 euro currency rate plus a spread (1.18% at July 1, 2017), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 2.35% at July 1, 2017. The facility fee, which is based on the company's credit ratings, was .20% at July 1, 2017. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The company has a commercial paper program and the maximum aggregate balance of commercial paper outstanding may not exceed the borrowing capacity of $1,200,000. The company had $45,000 in outstanding borrowings under the commercial paper program at July 1, 2017 with a weighted average interest rate of 1.74%. The company had no outstanding borrowings under this program at December 31, 2016.

The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $910,000 under the asset securitization program, which matures in September 2019. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation ("AFC"), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for true sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40% at July 1, 2017), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.62% at July 1, 2017. The facility fee is .40%.

At July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the company had $700,000 and $460,000, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program, which was included in "Long-term debt" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Total collateralized accounts receivable of approximately $1,877,771 and $2,045,464, respectively, were held by AFC and were included in "Accounts receivable, net" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Any accounts receivable held by AFC would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings before repayment of any outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program.

Both the revolving credit facility and asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of July 1, 2017 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.

The company has a $100,000 uncommitted line of credit. There were no outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted line of credit at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

During June 2017, the company completed the sale of $500,000 principal amount of 3.875% notes due in 2028. The net proceeds of the offering of $494,625 were used to redeem the company's 6.875% senior debenture due June 2018 and refinance a portion of the company’s 6.00% notes due April 2020, 5.125% notes due March 2021, and 7.50% notes due January 2027. The company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $58,759 in the second quarter and first six months of 2017.

Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $7,441 and $15,366 for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively. Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $3,918 and $8,585 for the second quarter and first six months of 2016, respectively.

Note H – Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

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


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


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


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

The following table presents assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis at July 1, 2017:



	Balance Sheet Location	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3			Total

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

During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, there were no transfers of assets (liabilities) measured at fair value between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Available-For-Sale Securities

The company has an 8.4% equity ownership interest in Marubun Corporation ("Marubun") and a portfolio of mutual funds with quoted market prices, all of which are accounted for as available-for-sale securities.

The fair value of the company's available-for-sale securities is as follows:



	July 1, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Marubun		Mutual Funds		Marubun		Mutual Funds
Cost basis	$	10,016	$	18,320	$	10,016	$	18,097

Fair value	$	16,462	$	27,019	$	13,822	$	24,093

The unrealized holding gains or losses on these investments are included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the shareholders' equity section in the company's consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative Instruments

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

Interest Rate Swaps

The company occasionally enters into interest rate swap transactions that convert certain fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt or variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt in order to manage its targeted mix of fixed- and floating-rate debt. The company uses the hypothetical derivative method to assess the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges on a quarterly basis. The effective portion of the change in the fair value of designated interest rate swaps is recorded as a change to the carrying value of the related hedged debt. The ineffective portion of the interest rate swaps, if any, is recorded in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company's consolidated statements of operations. As of July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, all outstanding interest rate swaps were designated as fair value hedges.

The terms of our outstanding interest rate swap contracts at July 1, 2017 are as follows:

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The company’s foreign currency exposure relates primarily to international transactions where the currency collected from customers can be different from the currency used to purchase the product. The company’s transactions in its foreign operations are denominated primarily in the following currencies: Euro, Chinese Renminbi, British Pound, Taiwan Dollar, and Australian Dollar. The company enters into foreign exchange forward, option, or swap contracts (collectively, the "foreign exchange contracts") to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are executed to facilitate the hedging of foreign currency exposures resulting from inventory purchases and sales and generally have terms of no more than six months. Gains or losses on these contracts are deferred and recognized when the underlying future purchase or sale is recognized or when

the corresponding asset or liability is revalued. The company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for trading purposes. The risk of loss on a foreign exchange contract is the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties, which the company minimizes by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions. The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts are estimated using market quotes. The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $447,484 and $460,233, 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 designated foreign currency exchange contracts, 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 2017 and 2016.

The effects of derivative instruments on the company's consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income are as follows:

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

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

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

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

The company believes the settlement amount together with potential recoveries from various insurance policies covering environmental remediation and related litigation will be sufficient to cover any potential future costs related to the Wyle acquisition; however, it is possible unexpected costs beyond those anticipated could occur.

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 continues at the site. Under the direction of the ADEM, approximately $5,750 was spent to date. The pace of the ongoing remedial investigations, project management, and regulatory oversight is likely to increase somewhat and, though the complete scope of the activities is not yet known, the company currently estimates additional investigative and related expenditures at the site of approximately $400 to $600. The nature and scope of both feasibility studies and subsequent remediation at the site has not yet been determined, but assuming the outcome includes source control and certain other measures, the cost is estimated to be between $4,400 and $10,000.

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

Environmental Matters - Norco

In October 2003, the company entered into a consent decree with Wyle Laboratories and the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (the "DTSC") in connection with the Norco site. In April 2005, a Remedial Investigation Work Plan was approved by DTSC that provided for site-wide characterization of known and potential environmental issues. Investigations performed in connection with this work plan and a series of subsequent technical memoranda continued until the filing of a final Remedial Investigation Report early in 2008. Work is under way pertaining to the remediation of contaminated groundwater at certain areas on the Norco site and of soil gas in a limited area immediately adjacent to the site. In 2008, a hydraulic containment system was installed to capture and treat groundwater before it moves into the adjacent offsite area. In September 2013, the DTSC approved the final Remedial Action Plan ("RAP") and work is currently progressing under the RAP. The approval of the RAP includes the potential for additional remediation action after the five year review of the hydraulic containment system if the review finds that contaminants have not been sufficiently reduced in the offsite area.

Approximately $54,750 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 $20,100 to $30,800. Project management and regulatory oversight include costs incurred by project consultants for project management and costs billed by DTSC to provide regulatory oversight.

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

Other

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the company may become liable with respect to other pending and threatened litigation, environmental, regulatory, labor, product, and tax matters. While such matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, it is not currently anticipated that any such matters will materially impact the company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

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

Overview

Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the "company") is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions. The company has one of the world’s broadest portfolios of product offerings available from leading electronic components and enterprise computing solutions suppliers, coupled with a range of services, solutions and tools that help industrial and commercial customers introduce innovative products, reduce their time to market, and enhance their overall competitiveness. The company has two business segments, the global components business segment and the global enterprise computing solutions ("ECS") business segment. The company distributes electronic components to original equipment manufacturers and contract manufacturers through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers through its global ECS business segment. For the first six months of 2017, approximately 70% of the company's sales were from the global components business segment and approximately 30% 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/or expand its geographic reach.

Executive Summary

Consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 increased by 8.3% and 6.8%, respectively, compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the second quarter of 2017 was driven by an increase in the global components business segment sales of 16.4% offset by a decrease in the global ECS business segment sales of 6.4%. The increase for the first six months of 2017 was driven by an increase in the global components business segment sales of 13.5% offset by a decrease in the global ECS business segment sales of 5.9%. Adjusted for the change in foreign currencies and acquisitions, consolidated sales increased 9.2% and 7.6% for the second quarter and first six months, respectively, of 2017 compared with the year-earlier period.

Net income attributable to shareholders decreased to $99.7 million and $213.4 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared to $134.3 million and $240.5 million, in the year-earlier periods. The following items impacted the comparability of the company's results:

Second quarters of 2017 and 2016:


•	loss on extinguishment of debt of $58.8 million in 2017;


•	restructuring, integration, and other charges of $24.4 million in 2017 and $16.1 million in 2016;


•	identifiable intangible asset amortization of $12.4 million in 2017 and $14.4 million in 2016; and


•	gain on sale of investment of $0.8 million in 2017

First six months of 2017 and 2016:


•	loss on extinguishment of debt of $58.8 million in 2017;


•	restructuring, integration, and other charges of $39.9 million in 2017 and $36.9 million in 2016;


•	identifiable intangible asset amortization of $25.3 million in 2017 and $27.4 million in 2016; and


•	gain on sale of investment of $0.8 million in 2017

Excluding the aforementioned items, net income attributable to shareholders for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 increased to $160.0 million and $292.3 million, respectively, compared with $152.7 million and $285.0 million in the year-earlier periods.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information, including:

•

Sales, income, or expense items as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as "impact of changes in foreign currencies") and the impact of acquisitions by adjusting the company's operating results for businesses acquired, including the amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets, as if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented (referred to as "impact of acquisitions");


•	Operating income as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization and restructuring, integration, and other charges; and


•	Net income attributable to shareholders as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, and restructuring, integration, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on investment, and other charges.

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

Sales

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

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



	Quarter Ended							Six Months Ended
	July 1, 2017		July 2, 2016			% Change		July 1, 2017		July 2, 2016			% Change
Consolidated sales, as reported	$	6,465	$	5,972		8.3	%	$	12,225	$	11,446		6.8	%

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

Consolidated sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 increased by $493.2 million, or 8.3%, and $778.6 million, or 6.8%, respectively, compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the second quarter of 2017 was driven by an increase in global components business segment sales of $629.4 million, or 16.4%, offset by a decrease in global ECS business segment sales of $136.1 million, or 6.4%. The increase for the first six months of 2017 was driven by an increase in global components business segment sales of $1.01 billion, or 13.5%, offset by a decrease in global ECS business segment sales of $233.6 million, or 5.9%.

Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, consolidated sales increased 9.2% and 7.6% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.

In the global components business segment, sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 increased $629.4 million, or 16.4%, and $1.01 billion, or 13.5%, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods, with double digit sales growth across all regions, adjusted for the impact of foreign currencies. Asia lead the global components business with sales growing 20.9% and 19.0% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with year-earlier periods. Sales growth in the Americas region was driven by Arrow’s growing digital and sustainable technology solutions businesses as well as the core business. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, the company's global components business segment sales increased by 17.2% and 14.4% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.

In the global ECS business segment, sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 decreased $136.1 million, or 6.4%, and $233.6 million, or 5.9%, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods, primarily due to a decrease in demand for hardware products, and the impact of changes in foreign currencies. The decreases were partially offset by strong growth in security and virtualization software, cloud products, and the impact of recently acquired businesses. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, the company's global ECS business segment sales decreased by 5.1% and 5.4% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with year-earlier periods.

Gross Profit

Following is an analysis of gross profit (in millions):



	Quarter Ended								Six Months Ended

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

The company recorded gross profit of $824.0 million and $1.58 billion in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with $798.8 million and $1.55 billion in the year-earlier periods. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to increased demand in the components business. Gross profit margins in the second quarter and first six months of 2017 decreased by approximately (70) bps and (50) bps, respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods primarily due to changes in business mix as well as the regional mix of sales across the global components business.

Gross profit from the global components business increased 6.7% and 4.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, on a sales increase of 16.4% and 13.5%, with a decrease in gross margins partially offsetting the increase in sales.

Gross profit from the global ECS business decreased 4.2% and 2.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, on a sales decrease of 6.4% and 5.9% with increased margins partially offsetting the decrease in sales.

The company recorded net interest and other financing expense of $42.4 million and $80.4 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with $39.0 million and $74.6 million in the year-earlier periods. The increase for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 was primarily due to higher average debt outstanding and an increase in variable interest rates.

Other

During June 2017, the company completed the sale of $500 principal amount of 3.875% notes due in 2028. The net proceeds of the offering of $495 were used to redeem the company's 6.875% senior debenture due June 2018 and refinance a portion of the company’s 6.00% notes due April 2020, 5.125% notes due March 2021, and 7.50% notes due January 2027. The company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $59 in the second quarter and first six months of 2017.

Income Taxes

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 2017, the company recorded a provision for income taxes of $29.6 million, an effective tax rate of 22.7%, and $68.8 million, an effective tax rate of 24.2%, respectively. The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges including identifiable intangible asset amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt, and gain on sale of investment. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company's effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 was 28.4% and 27.6%, respectively.

For the second quarter and first six months of 2016, the company recorded a provision for income taxes of $51.5 million, an effective tax rate of 27.5% and $92.5 million, an effective tax rate of 27.7%, respectively. The company's provision for income taxes and effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2016 were impacted by the previously discussed restructuring, integration, and other charges and identifiable intangible asset amortization. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, the company's effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2016 was 29.0% and 28.0%, respectively.

The effective tax rate deviates from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate mainly due to the foreign taxing jurisdictions in which the company and its foreign subsidiaries generate taxable income. The decrease in the effective tax rate from 27.5% for the second quarter of 2016 to 22.7% for the second quarter of 2017 is primarily driven by an increase in the taxable income in lower tax jurisdictions and discrete items including the adoption of ASU 2016-09 related to stock-based compensation.

Net Income Attributable to Shareholders

Following is an analysis of net income attributable to shareholders (in millions):



	Quarter Ended						Six Months Ended

Net income attributable to shareholders, as adjusted	$	160		$	153		$	292		$	285

* Identifiable intangible asset amortization does not include amortization related to the noncontrolling interest.

The company recorded net income attributable to shareholders of $99.7 million and $213.4 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with $134.3 million and $240.5 million in the year-earlier periods. Net income attributable to shareholders, as adjusted, was $160.0 million and $292.3 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with $152.7 million and $285.0 million in the year-earlier periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $419.9 million and $534.3 million, respectively, of which $246.7 million and $367.3 million, respectively, were held outside the United States. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the company's business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world. It is the company's current intent to permanently reinvest these funds outside the United States and its current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund its United States operations. If these funds were needed for the company's operations in the United States, it would be required to record and pay significant United States income taxes to repatriate these funds. Additionally, local government regulations may restrict the company's ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances. The company currently does not expect such regulations and restrictions to impact its ability to make acquisitions or to pay vendors and conduct operations throughout the global organization.

During the first six months of 2017, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $133.1 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $83.0 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $91.4 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was an increase of $10.4 million.

During the first six months of 2016, the net amount of cash provided by the company's operating activities was $115.1 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $145.8 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $266.8 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $13.4 million.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The company maintains a significant investment in accounts receivable and inventories. As a percentage of total assets, accounts receivable and inventories were approximately 67.4% at July 1, 2017 and 67.6% at December 31, 2016.

The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first six months of 2017 was $133.1 million and was primarily due to an increase in working capital to support the increase in sales, offset, in part, by an increase in earnings from operations adjusted for non-cash items.

The net amount of cash provided by the company's operating activities during the first six months of 2016 was $115.1 million and was primarily due to earnings from operations, adjusted for non-cash items, offset, in part by an increase in working capital to support the increase in sales.

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 17.6% in the second quarter of 2017 compared with 15.6% in the second quarter of 2016.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2017 was $83.0 million. The use of cash from investing activities included $101.9 million for capital expenditures. The sources of cash from investing activities included $24.4 million of proceeds from the sale of buildings. Included in capital expenditures for the first six months of 2017 is $30.3 million related to the company's global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") initiative.

The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2016 was $145.8 million. The uses of cash from investing activities included $45.5 million of cash consideration paid, net of cash acquired, for the acquisition of two businesses and $88.3 million for capital expenditures. Included in capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2016 is $31.4 million related to the company's global ERP initiative.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2017 was $91.4 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $558.1 million of payments for the redemption of notes, $123.7 million of repurchases of common stock and $23.4 million of payments to acquire additional shares of Data Modul AG. The sources of cash from financing activities during the second quarter of 2017 were $494.6 million of net proceeds from note offering, $40.3 million and $241.8 million of net proceeds from short-term and long-term bank borrowings, respectively, and $20.7 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2016 was $266.8 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $46.8 million of repurchases of common stock and $1.8 million of other acquisition related payments. The sources of cash from financing activities during the second quarter of 2016 were $67.6 million and $233.0 million of net proceeds from short-term and long-term bank borrowings, respectively, and $14.8 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

The company has a $1.8 billion revolving credit facility, maturing in December 2021. 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 euro currency rate plus a spread (1.18% at July 1, 2017), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 2.35% at July 1, 2017. The facility fee is .20%. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016. During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, the average daily balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility was $16.2 million and $8.0 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 $45.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the commercial paper program at July 1, 2017 with a weighted average interest rate of 1.74%. The company had no outstanding borrowings under this program at December 31, 2016. During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, the average daily balance outstanding under the commercial paper program was $571.0 million and $222.6 million, respectively.

The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $910.0 million under the asset securitization program, which matures in September 2019. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40% at July 1, 2017), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.62% at July 1, 2017. The facility fee is .40%. The company had $700.0 million and $460.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, the average daily balance outstanding under the asset securitization program was $721.6 million and $613.7 million, respectively.

The company has a $100.0 million uncommitted line of credit. There were no outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted line of credit at July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016. During the first six months of 2017 and 2016, the average daily balance outstanding under the uncommitted line of credit was $10.1 million and $21.9 million, respectively.

During June 2017, the company completed the sale of $500.0 million principal amount of 3.875% notes due in 2028. The net proceeds of the offering of $494.6 million were used to redeem the company's 6.875% senior debenture due June 2018 and refinance a portion of the company’s 6.00% notes due April 2020, 5.125% notes due March 2021, and 7.50% notes due January 2027. The company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $58.8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2017.

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

The company filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in September 2015, as amended in June 2017, registering debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, and warrants of Arrow Electronics, Inc. that may be issued by the company from time to time. As set forth in the shelf registration statement, the net proceeds from the sale of the offered securities may be used by the company for general corporate purposes, including repayment of borrowings, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and stock repurchases, or for such other purposes as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

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

Contractual Obligations

The company has contractual obligations for short-term and long-term debt, interest on short-term and long-term debt, capital leases, operating leases, purchase obligations, and certain other long-term liabilities that were summarized in a table of Contractual Obligations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since December 31, 2016, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations of the company outside the ordinary course of the company’s business, except as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

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

There were no significant changes during the first six months of 2017 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, 2016.
