NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

(1) Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description

ScanSource, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries referred to as “the Company” or “ScanSource”) is a leading hybrid distributor accelerating growth for partners across hardware, software, connectivity and cloud. The Company brings technology solutions and services from the world’s leading suppliers of mobility and barcode, point-of-sale (POS), payments, physical security, unified communications and collaboration, telecom and cloud services to market. The Company operates in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the UK. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed the divestitures of its products distribution business in the UK, Europe and Latin America, outside of Brazil. The Company's two operating segments, Specialty Technology Solutions and Modern Communications & Cloud, are based on product and customer type.

Segment Changes

During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the Company renamed its operating segments to Specialty Technology Solutions, formerly Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security, and Modern Communications & Cloud, formerly Worldwide Communications & Services. The Company made changes to the segments to align technologies with its hybrid distribution strategy across hardware, software, connectivity and cloud. The Company moved some North American business with communications and collaboration solutions to the Modern Communications & Cloud segment. With this change, all of the Company's communications and collaboration business is in the Modern Communications & Cloud segment. This technology alignment better represents the operating and financial performance information provided to the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker.

The Company has reclassified certain prior year amounts in the segment results to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the condensed consolidated financial results. See Note 10 - Segment Information for descriptions of the Company's segments.

COVID-19

The spread of COVID-19 since December 2019 has resulted in the implementation of numerous measures to contain the virus worldwide, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, business shutdowns, and limitations of in-person gatherings. The Company moved quickly to transition its employees, where possible, to a fully remote working environment. The Company also deployed teams to monitor the evolving situation and recommend risk mitigation actions. All of the Company's distribution facilities have remained open and operational throughout the pandemic.

The pandemic and these containment measures have had an impact on the Company's suppliers' businesses and sales partners' businesses. The negative impacts to net sales from the pandemic, including declines in customer demand and supply chain disruptions, began to recover throughout fiscal year 2021. While the Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on its business, certain technologies have benefited from the widespread adoption of work-from-home, as well as the accelerated shift to digitize and automate processes. The Company continues to incur higher employee related healthcare and prevention costs as a result of the pandemic. The Company has made adjustments, including implementing an annualized expense reduction plan in fiscal year 2021. For further discussion on the potential future impacts of COVID-19, see the Risk Factors presented in Part I, Item 1A in the Company's form 10-K for fiscal year 2021.

Basis of Presentation

12

Table of Contents
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring and non-recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the results of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the statements of comprehensive income for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the statements of shareholders' equity for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the statements of cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The results of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated, disclosures provided in the Notes pertain to continuing operations only.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies for the three months ended September 30, 2021 from the policies described in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains zero-balance disbursement accounts at various financial institutions at which the Company does not maintain significant depository relationships. Due to the terms of the agreements governing these accounts, the Company generally does not have the right to offset outstanding checks written from these accounts against cash on hand, and the respective institutions are not legally obligated to honor the checks until sufficient funds are transferred to fund the checks. As a result, checks released but not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $19.9 million and $14.3 million are included in accounts payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

Long-lived Assets

The Company presents depreciation expense and intangible amortization expense on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. The Company's depreciation expense related to selling, general and administrative costs totaled $2.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $3.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Depreciation expense reported as part of cost of goods sold on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements totaled $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $0.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The Company's intangible amortization expense reported on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements relates to selling, general and administrative costs, not the cost of selling goods. Intangible amortization expense totaled $4.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $4.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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

(2) Trade Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable for estimated future expected credit losses resulting from customers’ failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. The Company has notes receivable with certain customers, which are included in “Accounts receivable, less allowance” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Management determines the estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (i) historical experience, (ii) aging of the accounts receivable, (iii) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers, (iv) the current economic and country-specific environment and (v) reasonable and supportable forecasts about collectability. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist using an age-based reserve model. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics
13

Table of Contents
are evaluated on an individual basis. Estimates of expected credit losses on trade receivables over the contractual life are recorded at inception.

The changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the three months ended September 30, 2021 are set forth in the table below.

(3) Revenue Recognition

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

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

Principal versus Agent Considerations

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

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

Variable Considerations

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

Contract Balances

The Company records contract assets and liabilities for payments received from customers in advance of services performed. These assets and liabilities are the result of the sales of the Company's self-branded warranty programs and other transactions

where control has not yet passed to the customer. These amounts are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

Credit Facility

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

At the Company's option, loans under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the LIBOR or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's net leverage ratio, calculated as total debt less up to $15 million of unrestricted domestic cash ("Credit Facility Net Debt") to trailing four-quarter adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Credit Facility EBITDA") (the "Leverage Ratio"). This spread ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.75% for alternate base rate loans. Additionally, the Company is charged commitment fees ranging from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending upon the Leverage Ratio, on non-utilized borrowing availability, excluding swingline loans. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for the substitution of a new interest rate benchmark upon the transition from LIBOR, subject to agreement between the Company and the administrative agent.

Table of Contents
Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and a pledge of up to 65% of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined to be either material or a subsidiary borrower as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the revolving credit facility, the payment of cash dividends is restricted.

The spread in effect as of September 30, 2021 was 1.25% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.25% for alternate base rate loans. The commitment fee rate in effect at September 30, 2021 was 0.20%. The Amended Credit Agreement includes customary representations, warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants. Specifically, the Company’s Leverage Ratio must be less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 at all times. In addition, the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio (as such term is defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) must be at least 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, customary remedies are available to the lenders, including acceleration and increased interest rates. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility at September 30, 2021.

The average daily outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, during the three month period ended September 30, 2021 was $54.4 million. Including borrowings for both continuing and discontinued operations, the average daily outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, during the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $91.2 million. There was $293.6 million and $350.0 million available for additional borrowings as of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. There were no letters of credit issued under the multi-currency revolving credit facility at September 30, 2021 or June 30, 2021.

Mississippi Revenue Bond

On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the State of Mississippi to provide financing for the acquisition and installation of certain equipment to be utilized at the Company’s Southaven, Mississippi warehouse, through the issuance of an industrial development revenue bond. The bond matures on September 1, 2032 and accrues interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread of 0.85%. The terms of the bond allow for payment of interest only for the first 10 years of the agreement, and then, starting on September 1, 2018 through 2032, principal and interest payments are due until the maturity date or the redemption of the bond. The agreement also provides the bondholder with a put option, exercisable only within 180 days of each fifth anniversary of the agreement, requiring the Company to pay back the bonds at 100% of the principal amount outstanding. At September 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under this bond. The interest rates at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021 were 0.93% and 0.94%, respectively.

Debt Issuance Costs

At September 30, 2021, net debt issuance costs associated with the credit facility and bond totaled $1.1 million and are being amortized through the maturity date of each respective debt instrument.

(8) Derivatives and Hedging Activities

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

Foreign Currency Derivatives – The Company conducts a portion of its business internationally in a variety of foreign currencies and is exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company attempts to hedge transaction exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and once these opportunities have been exhausted the Company uses currency options and forward contracts or other hedging instruments with third parties. These contracts will periodically hedge the exchange of various currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Brazilian real, euro, British pound and Canadian dollar.

The Company had contracts outstanding for purposes of managing cash flows with notional amounts of $33.7 million and $27.9 million for the exchange of foreign currencies at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. To date, the Company has chosen not to designate these derivatives as hedging instruments, and accordingly, these instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense. Summarized financial information related to these derivative contracts and changes in the underlying value of the foreign currency exposures included in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Net foreign currency transactional and re-measurement losses2,136 343 
Net foreign currency exchange losses$485 $438 

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

Interest Rates - The Company’s earnings are also affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest expense from floating rate debt instruments. The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by using interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure and to achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus floating rate debt. The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement, which was subsequently settled, and entered into a new amended agreement on April 30, 2019. The swap agreement has a notional amount of $100.0 million, with a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to mature on April 30, 2024 and a $50.0 million tranche scheduled to mature April 30, 2026. This swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge to hedge the variable rate interest payments on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate differentials paid or received under the swap agreement are recognized as adjustments to interest expense. To the extent the swap is effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the swap are not included in current earnings but are reported as other comprehensive income (loss). There was no ineffective portion to be recorded as an adjustment to earnings for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

The components of the cash flow hedge included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, are as follows:

(9) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

The assets and liabilities maintained by the Company that are required to be measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis include the Company’s various debt instruments, deferred compensation plan investments, outstanding forward foreign currency exchange contracts, interest rate swap agreements and contingent consideration owed to the previous owners of Intelisys. The carrying value of debt is considered to approximate fair value, as the Company’s debt instruments are indexed to a variable rate using the market approach (Level 2).

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

Derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts, are measured using the market approach on a recurring basis considering foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency dealers and interest rates quoted by banks (Level 2). Fair values of interest rate swaps are measured using standard valuation models with inputs that can be derived from observable market transactions, including LIBOR spot and forward rates (Level 2). Foreign currency contracts and interest rate swap agreements are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as prepaid expenses and other non-current assets or accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities, depending on the respective instruments' favorable or unfavorable positions. See Note 9 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities.
The Company recorded a contingent consideration liability at the acquisition date of Intelisys representing the amounts payable to former shareholders, as outlined under the terms of the purchase agreements, based upon the achievement of a projected earnings measure, net of specific pro forma adjustments. The current and non-current portions of these obligations are reported separately on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the contingent considerations (Level 3) are determined using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities are recorded to the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements.

The table below provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the Company's contingent considerations for the Intelisys earnout, which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

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

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

Intelisys

The final earnout payment due to the former owners of Intelisys was paid in October 2020. The Company recognized $0.5 million in expense from the change in fair value of the contingent consideration in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The change in fair value for the prior-year quarter is due to the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount.

(11) Leases
24

Table of Contents

In accordance with ASC 842, at contract inception the Company determines if a contract contains a lease by assessing whether the contract contains an identified asset and whether the Company has the ability to control the asset. The Company also determines if the lease meets the classification criteria for an operating lease versus a finance lease under ASC 842. Substantially all of the Company's leases are operating leases for real estate, warehouse and office equipment ranging in duration from 1 year to 10 years. The Company has elected not to record short-term operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating leases are recorded as other non-current assets, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has finance leases for information technology equipment expiring through fiscal year 2024. Finance leases are recorded as property and equipment, net, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The gross amount of the balances recorded related to finance leases is immaterial to the financial statements at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the net present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The Company generally is not able to determine the rate implicit in its leases and has elected to apply an incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for the present value determination, which is based on the Company's cost of borrowings for the relevant terms of each lease and geographical economic factors. Certain operating lease agreements contain options to extend or terminate the lease. The lease term used is adjusted for these options when the Company is reasonably certain it will exercise the option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments not based on a rate or index, such as costs for common area maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Further, the Company has elected the practical expedient to recognize all lease and non-lease components as a single lease component, where applicable.

The following table presents amounts recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet related to operating leases at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021:

(12) Commitments and Contingencies

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

The rapid spread of COVID-19 since December 2019 has resulted in the implementation of numerous measures to contain the virus worldwide, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business shutdowns. The pandemic and these containment measures have had, and are expected to continue to have, a substantial impact on businesses around the world, including the Company’s business, and on global, regional and national economies. The Company is unable at this time to predict the ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on its business due to the inability to predict the duration or magnitude of the virus' impact.

During the Company's due diligence for the Network1 acquisition, several pre-acquisition contingencies were identified regarding various Brazilian federal and state tax exposures. The Company recorded indemnification receivables that are reported gross of the pre-acquisition contingency liabilities as the funds were escrowed as part of the acquisition. The amount available after the impact of foreign currency translation for future pre-acquisition contingency settlements or to be released to the sellers was $3.7 million and $4.0 million, at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

The table below summarizes the balances and line item presentation of Network1's pre-acquisition contingencies and corresponding indemnification receivables in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021:

The decrease in pre-acquisition contingencies and corresponding indemnification receivables is due to a slight decrease in the foreign exchange rate of the Brazilian real against the US dollar.

(13) Restructuring

In July 2020, as part of a strategic review of organizational structure and operations, the Company announced a global cost reduction and restructuring program. These actions are designed to better align the cost structure for the wholesale distribution business with lower sales volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also initiated the closure of its Canpango business, its Salesforce implementation and consulting business. There had been limited adoption by the Company's partner community of the services Canpango offers. These actions include entering into severance and termination agreements with employees, legal fees to execute the reduction in force and costs associated with lease terminations.

The following table presents the restructuring and severance costs incurred for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:

(14) Income Taxes

Income taxes for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements using an estimated annual effective tax rate. In addition to applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income, the Company includes certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax provision. There were no material discrete items recognized during the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020.

The Company’s effective tax rate of 25.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 differs from the current federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of income derived from tax jurisdictions with varying income tax rates, nondeductible expenses and state income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 29.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

As of the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the Company is not permanently reinvested with respect to all earnings generated by foreign operations. The Company has determined that there is no material deferred tax liability related to federal, state and withholding tax related to undistributed earnings. There is no certainty to the timing of the distribution of such earnings to the U.S. in whole or in part.

The Company had approximately $1.1 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Of this total at September 30, 2021, approximately $0.9 million represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that are permanent in nature and, if recognized, would affect the annual effective tax rate. The Company does not believe that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within twelve months of the reporting date.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. At September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $1.1 million accrued for interest and penalties.

The Company conducts business globally and one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal, various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in countries and states in which it operates. With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before June 30, 2016.

(15) Discontinued Operations

On August 20, 2019, the Company announced plans to divest the product distribution businesses in Europe, the UK, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Peru and the Miami-based export operations ("Divestitures") as these businesses had been performing below management's expectations. The Company continues to operate its digital business in these countries. Management determined that the Company did not have sufficient scale in these markets to maximize the value-added model for product distribution, leading the Company to focus and invest in its higher-growth, higher-margin businesses. Results from the Divestitures were included within each reportable segment, which includes the Specialty Technology Solutions and Modern Communications & Cloud segments.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a pre-tax loss on sale classification of $88.9 million to reduce the carrying value of the Divestitures to its estimate of fair value (the net proceeds received at closing), less estimated costs to sell. As this loss was determined not to be attributable to any individual components in the Divestitures' net assets, it was reflected as a valuation allowance against the total assets of the Divestitures. During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded an additional pre-tax loss on disposal group of $10.7 million. This additional loss was attributable primarily to a reduction in the net proceeds expected to be realized at closing for the Divestitures.

The Company signed an agreement on July 23, 2020 with Intcomex for its businesses located in Latin America, outside of Brazil. The Company finalized the sale of the Latin America businesses on October 30, 2020. The Company also finalized the sale of the Europe and UK business on November 12, 2020. Total cash received for the sale of divestitures was $34.4 million.

Major components of net loss from discontinued operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 were as follows:

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

Overview

ScanSource is a leading hybrid distributor accelerating growth for partners across hardware, software, connectivity and cloud. We provide technology solutions and services from more than 500 leading suppliers of mobility and barcode, point-of-sale (POS), payments, physical security, unified communications and collaboration (UCaaS, CCaaS), telecom and cloud services to our 30,000-plus sales partners located in the United States, Canada, Brazil, the UK and Europe.

We operate our business under a management structure that enhances our technology focus and hybrid distribution growth strategy. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, we renamed our operating segments and aligned technologies with our hybrid distribution growth strategy by moving some North American business with communications and collaborations solutions to the Modern Communications & Cloud segment. Our segments each operate in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the UK:

Specialty Technology Solutions, formerly Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security
Modern Communications & Cloud, formerly Worldwide Communications & Services

We sell hardware, software, connectivity and cloud solutions and services through channel partners to end-customers. We operate distribution facilities that support our United States and Canada business in Mississippi, California, and Kentucky. Brazil distribution facilities are located in the Brazilian states of Parana, Espirito Santo and Santa Catarina. We provide some of our digital products, which include Software as a Service (“SaaS”) and subscriptions, through our digital tools and platforms.

Unless otherwise indicated, the amounts and analysis provided within Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations pertain to our continuing operations only.

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business Environment

The spread of COVID-19 since December 2019 has resulted in the implementation of numerous measures to contain the virus worldwide, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, business shutdowns, and limitations of in-person gatherings. The pandemic and these containment measures have had a substantial impact on businesses around the world and on global, regional and national economies. We cannot predict the continued impact of the pandemic, including the impact of the proposed U.S. vaccine mandate, and the degree to which our business and results of operations may be affected.

Our top priority is protecting the health and safety of our employees. We have teams monitoring the evolving situation and recommending risk mitigation actions. All of our distribution facilities have remained open and operational throughout the pandemic. Our employees are committed to providing the high level of customer service our partners have grown to expect from us in order to achieve positive results.

In July 2020, we announced actions to address the business impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and prepare for our next phase of growth. These actions included a $30 million annualized expense reduction plan. These actions were designed to better align the cost structure for our wholesale distribution business with lower sales volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the plan, we have continued to invest in our higher growth agency business, Intelisys. Strong growth for the Intelisys business has continued, even with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our Strategy

We rely on a channel sales model using a hybrid distribution strategy to offer hardware, software, connectivity and cloud from leading technology suppliers to sales partners that solve end customers' challenges. Through our digital tools and platforms, we offer customers SaaS and subscription services from leading technology suppliers. While we do not manufacture products, we provide technology solutions and services from leading technology suppliers. Our solutions may include a combination of
30

Table of Contents
offerings from multiple suppliers or give our sales partners access to additional services, such as custom configuration, key injection, integration support, custom development and other services. We also offer the flexibility of on-premise, cloud and hybrid solutions.

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

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

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $1.5 million, or 2.4%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase is attributable to higher employee costs, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.

Restructuring and other charges incurred of $8.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 primarily relate to employee severance and benefit costs in connection with our expense reduction plan implemented at the end of July 2020.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a $0.5 million expense from change in fair value of contingent consideration, all of which relates to Intelisys. The final Intelisys earnout payment was paid in October 2020.

For the Specialty Technology Solutions segment, operating income increased $12.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior-year quarter. Operating margin increased to 2.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 compared to 0.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The increase in operating income and margin for the quarter is primarily due to higher gross profits.

Modern Communications & Cloud

Total other expense, net$897 $1,796 $(899)(50.1)%0.1 %0.2 %

Interest expense consists primarily of interest incurred on borrowings, non-utilization fees charged on the revolving credit facility and amortization of debt issuance costs. Interest expense decreased for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior-year quarter principally from reduced borrowings on our multi-currency revolving credit facility.

Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was generated on interest-bearing customer receivables and interest earned on cash and cash equivalents. Interest income increased for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior-year principally from higher interest earned on cash and cash equivalents in Brazil.

Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses. Foreign exchange gains and losses are primarily generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real and the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar. We

partially offset foreign currency exposure with the use of foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against these exposures. The costs associated with foreign exchange forward contracts are included in the net foreign exchange losses.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the quarter ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense was $7.4 million reflecting an effective tax rate of 25.0%. In comparison, for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, income tax expense totaled less than $0.1 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 29.0%. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter is primarily due to an increase in forecasted tax exempt income. We expect the effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, for fiscal year 2022 to be approximately 24.5% to 25.5%. See Note 14 - Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Evaluating Financial Condition and Operating Performance

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

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

Return on Invested Capital

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

Adjusted EBITDA starts with net income and adds back interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, changes in fair value of contingent considerations, and other non-GAAP adjustments. Effective with the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, non-cash share-based compensation expense is also added back in calculating adjusted EBITDA. Since adjusted EBITDA excludes some non-cash costs of investing in our business and people, we believe that adjusted EBITDA shows the profitability from our business operations more clearly.

We calculate ROIC as adjusted EBITDA, divided by invested capital. Invested capital is defined as average equity plus average daily funded interest-bearing debt for the period. The following table summarizes annualized ROIC for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Net Sales in Constant Currency, Excluding Acquisitions and Divestitures

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

Income Statement Non-GAAP Metrics

To evaluate current period performance on a more consistent basis with prior periods, we disclose non-GAAP net sales, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net other expense, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP results exclude amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition and divestiture costs, restructuring costs, impact of Divestitures and other non-GAAP adjustments. These year-over-year metrics include the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These metrics are useful in assessing and understanding our operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods. Below we provide a non-GAAP reconciliation of the aforementioned metrics adjusted for the costs and charges mentioned above:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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

Our cash and cash equivalents balance totaled $55.5 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $62.7 million at June 30, 2021, including $48.4 million and $52.1 million held outside of the United States at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Checks released but not yet cleared in the amounts of $19.9 million and $14.3 million are included in accounts payable at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

We conduct business in many locations throughout the world where we generate and use cash. We provide for United States income taxes from the earnings of our Canadian and Brazilian subsidiaries. See Note 14 - Income Taxes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Our net investment in working capital increased $77.3 million to $564.0 million at September 30, 2021 from $486.7 million at June 30, 2021, primarily from increases in accounts receivable and inventory and decreases in accounts payable. Our net investment in working capital is affected by several factors such as fluctuations in sales volume, net income, timing of collections from customers, increases and decreases to inventory levels and payments to vendors.

Net cash used in operating activities was $57.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $71.2 million provided by operating activities in the prior-year period. Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to increases in accounts receivable and inventory, and decreases in accounts payable. Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily attributable to increased accounts payable and decreased inventory, partially offset by decreased accounts receivable.

The number of days sales outstanding ("DSO") was 62 days at September 30, 2021, compared to 60 days at June 30, 2021 and 61 days at September 30, 2020. Inventory turned 6.3 times during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to 6.5 times for previous quarter ended June 30, 2021 and 6.2 times in the prior-year quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $1.1 million, compared to $0.7 million used in the prior-year period. Cash used in investing activities primarily represents capital expenditures in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Management expects capital expenditures for fiscal year 2022 to range from $5 million to $8 million, primarily for IT investments and facility improvements.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, cash provided by financing activities totaled $54.9 million, compared to $70.3 million used in financing activities for the prior-year period. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to net borrowings on the revolving credit facility. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 cash used in financing activities was primarily for net repayments on the revolving credit facility.

Credit Facility

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

At our option, loans under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or alternate base rate depending upon the our net leverage ratio, calculated as total debt less up to $15 million of unrestricted domestic cash to trailing four-quarter adjusted EBITDA.

This spread ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.75% for alternate base rate loans. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for the substitution of a new interest rate benchmark upon the transition from LIBOR, subject to agreement between the Company and the administrative agent. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary yield protection provisions. Additionally, we are assessed commitment fees ranging from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending upon the Leverage Ratio, on non-utilized borrowing availability, excluding swingline loans. The secured term loan facility will amortize based on the percentage of original principal amount with 2.5% in Year 1, 5.0% in Year 2, 5.0% in Year 3, 7.5% in Year 4 and 10.0% in Year 5. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of our domestic assets and a pledge of up to 65% of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined to be either material or a subsidiary borrower as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement.

The Amended Credit Agreement includes customary representations, warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants. Specifically, our Leverage Ratio must be less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00 at all times. In addition, our Interest Coverage Ratio (as such term is defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) must be at least 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, customary remedies are available to the lenders, including acceleration and increased interest rates. We were in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility at September 30, 2021. There was $56.4 million in outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2021. There was no outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2021.

The average daily balance for the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, was $54.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2021. Including borrowings for both continuing and discontinued operations, the average daily balance for the revolving credit facility, excluding the term loan facility, was $91.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2020. There were no letters of credit issued under the multi-currency revolving credit facility at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. There was $293.6 million and $350.0 million available for additional borrowings at September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Availability to use this borrowing capacity depends upon, among other things, the levels of our Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio, which, in turn, will depend upon (1) our Credit Facility Net Debt relative to our Credit Facility EBITDA and (2) Credit Facility EBITDA relative to total interest expense, respectively. As a result, our availability will increase if EBITDA increases (subject to the limit of the facility) and decrease if EBITDA decreases. At September 30, 2021, based upon the calculation of our Credit Facility Net Debt relative to our Credit Facility EBITDA, there was $293.6 million available for borrowing. While we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2021, and currently expect to continue to maintain such compliance, should we encounter difficulties, our historical relationship with our Credit Facility lending group has been strong and we anticipate their continued support of our long-term business.

Summary

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect or change on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the company is a party, under which the company has (i) any
