ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
The following discussion includes forward-looking statements, including but not limited to, managements expectations of competition; market share; revenues, margin, expenses and other operating results or ratios; economic conditions; vendor terms and conditions; deployment of enterprise systems; process and efficiency enhancements; cost savings; cash flows; working capital levels and days; capital expenditures; liquidity; capital requirements; acquisitions and integration costs; operating models; exchange rate fluctuations and related currency gains and losses; resolution of contingencies; seasonality; interest rates and exposures; and rates of return. In evaluating our business, readers should carefully consider those factors discussed under Risk Factors. We disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise stated, all currency amounts, other than per share information, contained in this Part I are stated in thousands.
Ingram Micro Inc., a Fortune 100 company, is the largest global wholesale technology distributor, by net sales, and a global leader in information technology (IT) supply-chain management, mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions. We distribute and market a large variety of technology and mobility products from leading companies, such as Acer, Apple, Cisco, Hewlett-Packard (HP), IBM, Lenovo, Microsoft, Samsung and many others. As a vital link in the technology value chain, we create sales and profitability opportunities for vendors, resellers and other customers through unique marketing programs; outsourced logistics and mobile device lifecycle solutions; technical support; financial services; product aggregation and distribution; solutions creation and cloud service models.
We have operations in 37 countries: North America (United States and Canada), Europe (Austria, Belgium, France, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom), Asia-Pacific (Australia, the Peoples Republic of China (including Hong Kong), Egypt, India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Malaysia, New Zealand, Senegal, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand, Turkey and United Arab Emirates) and Latin America (Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru). Additionally, we serve many other markets where we do not have an in-country presence through our various export sales offices, including our general telesales operations in numerous geographies. We sell our products and services to a global customer base of more than 200,000 customers in approximately 160 countries. We believe we are the only global broad-based distributor with distribution operations in every region. Based on currently available data, we believe that we are the market share leader in IT distribution, by net sales, in North America and Latin America, number two in Europe and number three in Asia-Pacific.
We began business in 1979, operating as Micro D Inc., a California corporation. Through a series of acquisitions, mergers and organic growth, Ingram Micros global footprint, product breadth and service capabilities have expanded and strengthened in North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific, which now includes Middle East and Africa. Over the past 10 years we have completed 22 acquisitions. In recent years, our acquisitions have been primarily focused on global expansion of our specialty product and service offerings. In 2012, we made major strides in expanding our presence in areas of strategic focus through the following acquisitions: Brightpoint, Inc. (BrightPoint), the global leader in mobile device lifecycle services; certain IT distribution businesses of Aptec Holding Ltd. (Aptec), a Dubai-based value-added distributor in the Middle East and Africa; and Promark Technology (Promark), a U.S.-based, value-added distributor focused on sales to government customers.
We have historically reported on our four geographic segments: North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific and have also added a fifth reportable segment for global mobility, consisting of the mobile device lifecycle services business of BrightPoint that we acquired on October 15, 2012. For a discussion of our geographic reporting segments, see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements on Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
1
Distribution We buy, hold title to, and sell technology products and/or services to resellers who, in turn, typically sell directly to end-users or other resellers. Resellers build efficiencies and reduce costs by relying on Ingram Micro for product availability, marketing, credit, training and enablement, technical support and inventory management. Our predictive analytics tools convert our data into insights which we use to deliver more value to our customers and vendors, offering them a targeted approach to market penetration and more profitable growth opportunities. We offer programs and services designed to support value-added resellers (VARs) in serving as technology sources for the small-to-medium sized business (SMB) market. The SMB end-user segment is generally one of the largest segments of the IT market in terms of number of customers and total revenue, and typically provides higher gross margins for distributors as it is more challenging for suppliers to penetrate directly. We support Internet-based resellers through expanded line card offerings and customized, personalized delivery directly to their end-user customers.
We purchase a wide variety of mobile voice and data products from the leading mobile device manufacturers, as well as accessories used with mobile devices, and market and sell these products to independent agents, dealers and retailers. We also distribute accessories to mobile network operators and mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs), which are wireless communications service providers that do not own the radio spectrum or wireless network infrastructure over which they provide services and obtain bulk access to network services from network operators. We purchase and resell original equipment manufacturer and aftermarket accessories, either prepackaged or in bulk. Our accessory packaging services provide mobile operators and retail chains with custom packaged and/or branded accessories based on the specific requirements of those customers. Two-tier distribution continues to be an integral element of the go-to-market strategy for IT and mobile device suppliers.
Value-Add We are advancing our presence in the higher-value segment of the IT market. We have added products, services and capabilities and associates with the requisite technical skills to broaden our portfolio of higher-value technology solutions. Our expanded capabilities and portfolio enable our resellers to capture opportunities in areas such as the data center market, enterprise computing, storage solutions, virtualization, enterprise software, unified communications, networking and security. By strengthening our position in specialty product categories, our resellers are able to provide end-users with more complete solutions, augmenting IT products with other categories such as automatic identification and data capture (AIDC), point-of-sale (POS), mobility, physical security, consumer electronics (CE), professional audio visual and digital signage products.
Cloud We have aggregated more than 150 cloud solutions from vendors across every solution category. Our resellers in certain geographic markets can access our catalog of cloud solutions and tailor cloud offerings to fit the business needs of their end-user customers. New cloud solutions are thoroughly assessed to ensure quality and reliability before becoming part of our cloud services portfolio. We provide tools and support to assist resellers in providing cloud services to their customers. Originally a North American initiative, we have launched cloud services to varying degrees in a number of geographies and we intend to roll out our program globally. We expect to broaden our cloud services portfolio in line with market demand. By leveraging our cloud services offerings, resellers avoid the investments necessary for independent service deployment while enjoying a recurring revenue stream.
Logistics Our expertise in logistics enables us to extend our business beyond traditional distribution and technology products. We offer fee-based supply chain services, encompassing the end-to-end functions of the supply chain to vendors choosing to sell direct. Likewise, we offer fee-based services to retailers and Internet resellers seeking fulfillment services, inventory management, reverse logistics, and other supply chain services for both IT and non-IT products. Our customized logistics services for the mobility industry include procurement; inventory management; software loading, kitting and customized packaging; fulfillment; credit services; receivables management; call center services; activation services; website hosting; e-fulfillment solutions; repair, refurbish and recycle services; reverse logistics; transportation management; sale of prepaid airtime and other services. We provide these services to mobile network
2
operators, MVNOs and mobile device manufacturers. Our supply chain services are designed to enable our logistics customers to better compete by reducing their costs and improving their asset efficiency. Our effective and efficient platform allows customers to benefit from quickly deployed and flexible solutions.
We believe that the current technology industry generally favors large, financially-sound distributors that have broad product portfolios, economies of scale, strong business partner relationships and wide geographic reach. Our value is in enabling our business partners both reseller customers and vendors to become more efficient, knowledgeable and profitable. Our strengths position us well to meet the needs of our reseller and vendor partners worldwide in both difficult economic times and growth cycles, and to lead the IT and mobility distribution, mobile device lifecycle services, and logistics markets as they evolve.
| Strong Working Capital Management and a Solid Financial Position. We are committed to strong working capital management. Maintaining a close relationship with resellers enables us to monitor demand to optimize our investment in inventory, while preserving customer fill rates and service levels. We continue to carefully manage our inventory days on hand through targeted initiatives aimed at minimizing excess and obsolete goods while improving our purchasing processes and product flow. Furthermore, we continue to effectively manage our accounts receivable through timely collections, disciplined credit limits, customer terms and process efficiencies to minimize our working capital requirements. Our conservative approach to capital management, as well as our diversified portfolio of capital resources, serves us well in the current credit markets. Our financial strength enables us to provide valuable credit to our customers, employing a disciplined approach to account management and creditworthiness. We also believe that we continue to be well-positioned to support growth initiatives and invest in incremental profitable growth opportunities. Finally, we believe our financial position provides us with a competitive advantage as a reliable, long-term business partner for our supplier and reseller partners. |
| Commitment to Diversification. We believe that our ability to execute on new initiatives, adapt to new business models and enter new geographic markets provides a competitive advantage by enabling us to capture opportunities and overcome the risks, volatility and demand fluctuations in a single market, vendor or product segment. |
Product Markets In recent years, we have made a number of investments focused on augmenting our IT product distribution business through the global expansion of our specialty product offerings and solutions, such as AIDC/POS, CE, data center and enterprise computing. Our acquisition of BrightPoint in 2012 was a significant step toward further diversifying our business and expanding our presence in the rapidly growing mobility market, as well as expanding our geographic reach. Our enterprise computing business was expanded in the U.S. through the 2012 acquisition of Promark, a storage-focused value-added distributor. Our acquisition of Promark strengthens our position in high-value products and solutions, as well as extending our leadership and reach within the public sector by providing our resellers with federal, state and other U.S. government revenue opportunities through Promarks General Services Administration Schedule. We believe that our diversified and evolving product portfolio will provide a solid platform for continued growth.
Geographic Coverage Our acquisition of Aptec in 2012 extended our geographic reach into the Middle East and North Africa. Our presence in more markets than any other broad-based technology products distributor provides us with a more balanced global portfolio which allows us to better manage and mitigate risk. Our broad global footprint enables us to better serve our resellers and suppliers by leveraging our extensive sales and distribution network.
Differentiated Service Offerings We believe that our service offerings provide a means to diversify our revenue stream while distinguishing us from our competitors. Our logistics services enable us to earn fees from technology and mobility suppliers that choose to bypass distribution and sell directly to resellers and/or end-users. We have further diversified our logistics business, offering
3
supply chain services to retailers and Internet resellers for non-technology products. We continue to expand the markets and products that we serve with our logistics model and we continue to provide innovative solutions for our reseller customers and vendor partners such as with our cloud services offerings.
We conduct business with most of the leading resellers of IT products and services around the world and with many of the worlds leading mobility companies. Our broad customer base is divided into segments which include VARs, corporate resellers, retailers, custom installers, systems integrators, mobile network operators, MVNOs, direct marketers, Internet-based resellers, independent dealers, reseller purchasing associations, managed service providers, cloud providers, PC assemblers, independent agents and dealers, and other distributors. Many of our customers are heavily dependent on distribution partners with the necessary systems, capital, inventory availability, and distribution facilities in place to provide fulfillment and other services. We also provide supply chain management services to a variety of customers, including retailers, Internet-based resellers, IT vendors, mobile network operators, MVNOs, and mobile device manufacturers. We try to reduce our exposure to the impact of business fluctuations by maintaining a balance in the customer segments we serve.
In most cases we conduct business with our customers under our general terms and conditions, without minimum purchase requirements. We also have resale contracts with our reseller customers that are terminable at will after a reasonable notice period and have no minimum purchase requirements. We generally sell our products pursuant to customer purchase orders and subject to our terms and conditions. We generally ship products on the same day orders are accepted from the customer. Unless otherwise requested, substantially all of our products are delivered by common freight carriers. Backlog is generally not material to our business because orders are generally filled shortly after acceptance. We have specific agreements in place with certain manufacturers and resellers in which we provide supply chain management services such as order management, technical support, call center services, logistics management, configuration management, and procurement management services. These agreements generally may be terminated by either party without cause following reasonable notice. The service offerings we provide to our customers are discussed further below under Services. Our mobility logistics services are typically provided pursuant to agreements with terms between one and three years and generally may be terminated by either party subject to a short notice period.
Our business is not substantially dependent on any of these distribution or supply chain services contracts. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue in fiscal 2012.
We employ sales representatives worldwide, both in the field and on our campuses, who assist resellers with product specifications and solution design, system configuration, new product/service introductions, pricing, and availability. In addition, our sales representatives regularly introduce our reseller partners to new technologies and markets in order to assist them in expanding their business.
Our product management and marketing groups help create demand for our suppliers products and services, enable the launch of new products, and facilitate customer contact. Our marketing programs are tailored to meet specific supplier and reseller customer needs. These needs are met through a wide offering of services by our in-house marketing organizations, including advertising, direct mail campaigns, market research, online marketing, retail programs, sales promotions, training, solutions marketing, and assistance with trade shows and other events. We also create and utilize specialized channel marketing communities to deliver focused resources and business building support to solution providers.

We distribute and market hundreds of thousands of technology products worldwide from the industrys premier computer hardware suppliers, mobility hardware suppliers, networking equipment suppliers, software publishers, and other suppliers of computer peripherals, CE, AIDC/POS and physical security products. Based on publicly available information, we believe we offer the largest breadth of products in our industry. Product assortments vary by market, and the suppliers relative contribution to our sales also varies from country to country. Although our revenue mix by product category on a worldwide basis has remained relatively stable over the past several years, we have seen a slight shift in favor of systems over peripherals more recently, as an improved economic environment in some areas has driven a system refresh cycle and personal mobile devices, including tablets, have experienced strong growth rates.
The table below represents our revenue mix by product category on a consolidated basis over the past several years (excluding the newly acquired BrightPoint mobility business which includes mobile handsets, tablets, navigation devices, aircards, SIM cards, flash memory, and other mobility accessories). Our product mix has generally been within the following ranges:
IT Peripherals: |
35-40% | |||
Systems: |
30-35% | |||
Software: |
12-17% | |||
Networking: |
12-17% |
IT Peripherals. We offer a variety of products within the peripherals category that fall within several sub-categories:
| traditional IT peripherals such as printers, scanners, displays, projectors, monitors, panels, mass storage, and tape; |
| digital signage products such as large format LCD and plasma displays, enclosures, mounts, media players, content software, content creation, content hosting, and installation services; |

| supplies and accessories such as ink and toner supplies, paper, carrying cases, and anti-glare screens. |
Systems. We define our systems category as self-standing computer systems capable of functioning independently. We offer a variety of systems, such as rack, tower and blade servers; desktops; and portable personal computers and tablets.
Software. We define our software category as a broad variety of applications containing computer instructions or data that can be stored electronically. We offer a variety of software products, such as business application software, operating system software, entertainment software, middleware, developer software tools, security software (firewalls, intrusion detection, and encryption), storage software and virtualization software.
5
Networking. Our networking category includes networking hardware, communication products and network security hardware. Networking hardware includes switches, hubs, routers, wireless local area networks, wireless wide area networks, network interface cards, cellular data cards, network-attached storage and storage area networks. Communication products incorporate Voice over Internet Protocol (or VoIP), communications, modems, phone systems and video/audio conferencing. Network security hardware includes firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (or VPNs), intrusion detection, and authentication devices and appliances.
We offer a variety of services to our customers and suppliers, and, in some instances, to end-users on behalf of our customers. Our services may be purchased individually or in combination with other services, or they may be provided along with our product sales. Our services include:
| supply chain services (product procurement, inventory management, order management and fulfillment, reverse logistics, transportation management, customer care, credit and collection management services); |
| integration services (compatibility assurance, order configuration, drop ship to end-users); |
| technical support (real-time, multi-vendor support; certified technical expertise; technology help desks; pre-sales consultative support); |
| training services (manufacturer-certified, self-study and instructor-led training courses for resellers and end-users); |
| financial and credit services (credit lines extended to resellers and to end-users on behalf of resellers, end-user leasing programs); |
| marketing services (targeted marketing activities including direct mail, external media advertising, telemarketing campaigns, national and regional trade shows, web-based marketing); |
| predictive analytics services (a U.S.-based service using our proprietary algorithms to generate insights from our internal and external data and disseminate them to internal constituents (e.g., sales and marketing departments) and external users (e.g., customers and vendors) to inform more profitable decisions); |
| e-commerce services (EDI-, XML- and web-based electronic links to reseller customers to enable electronic transactions); |
| reseller community hosting services (Ingram Micro-enabled communities of resellers bound by a common specialized focus (e.g., government and SMB) that are provided with connections and resources to grow their specific businesses); |
| managed services (help desk services, security solutions, remote monitoring and management, hosting services, security services and business continuity); |
| cloud services (communication and collaboration services, security services, infrastructure services, recovery business applications and platform services, cloud management services, etc.); |
| managed print services (automatic supplies replenishment, remote printer maintenance monitoring, help desk, equipment lease options); |
| professional services (IT staffing solutions, warranty services, IT asset disposition); and |

Although services continue to represent one of the key components of our long-term strategy, they represented less than 10% of our annual revenues in 2012 and are not expected to exceed that level in the near term.
6
We sell the products of more than 1,700 suppliers, which represent the worlds leading computer hardware, networking equipment, mobility, AIDC/POS, and CE manufacturers and software publishers. Products purchased from HP generated approximately 18%, 21%, and 23% of our consolidated net sales in fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively and products purchased from Apple Inc. generated approximately 10% of our consolidated net sales in 2012.
Our suppliers generally provide warranties on the products we distribute and allow returns of defective products, including those returned to us by our customers. We generally do not independently provide warranties on the products we distribute; however, local laws may impose warranty obligations upon distributors (such as in the case of supplier liquidation). In certain markets we administer extended warranty programs, supported by a third party, on supplier products. We provide warranty services for products that we build to order from components purchased from other sources. Provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded at the time of sale and periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Historically, warranty expense has not been material.
We have written distribution agreements with many of our suppliers and these agreements usually provide for nonexclusive distribution rights and often include territorial restrictions that limit the countries in which we may distribute the products. Some of our agreements with our suppliers may contain limitations of liability to our suppliers obligations and warranties. The agreements also are generally short-term, subject to periodic renewal, and often contain provisions permitting termination by either party without cause upon relatively short notice. Certain distribution agreements either require (at our option) or allow for the repurchase of inventory upon termination of the agreement. In cases where suppliers are not obligated to accept inventory returns upon termination, some suppliers will nevertheless elect to repurchase the inventory while other suppliers will assist with either liquidation or resale of the inventory.
Each geographic region in which we operate (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America) is highly competitive. In the current economic environment, competitive pressure in the form of aggressive pricing is acute. Competitive factors vary in importance with the type of product, service or solution offered. In addition to pricing, other competitive factors include:
| ability to tailor specific solutions to customer needs; |
| availability of technical and product information; |
| effectiveness of information systems; |
| credit terms and availability; |
| effectiveness of sales and marketing programs; |
| products and services availability; |
| quality and breadth of product lines and services; |
| speed and accuracy of delivery; and |
| availability of web- or call center-based sales. |
We compete against broad-based IT distributors such as Tech Data and Synnex Corporation. There are a number of specialized competitors that focus on one market or product or a particular sector with which we compete. Examples include Avnet and Arrow in components and enterprise products; Westcon in networking and security; D&H Distributing, ADI, and Petra in consumer electronics; and ScanSource and BlueStar in AIDC/POS products. While we face some competitors in more than one region, others are specialized in local markets, such as Synnex Technology International (Asia-Pacific), Digital China (China), Redington (Asia-Pacific), Express
7
Data (Australia and New Zealand), Intcomex (Latin America), Esprinet (Italy and Spain), ALSO-Actebis Holding AG (Europe) and Metra Group (Asia-Pacific). Our mobile device distribution competitors include Brightstar (all regions), Aerovoice (North America), Cellnet Group Ltd. (Asia-Pacific) and Axcom (Europe). Examples of competitors in specific mobility service areas include Foxconn (North America and Latin America) in repair, refurbish and recycle services; Avenir S.A. (Europe) in activation services and Incomm (North America and Latin America) in prepaid airtime. We believe that suppliers, resellers and other customers pursuing global strategies continue to seek distributors with global sales and support capabilities.
The evolving direct-sales relationships between manufacturers, resellers, and end-users continue to introduce change into our competitive landscape. We compete, in some cases, with hardware suppliers and software publishers that sell directly to reseller customers and end-users. However, we may become a business partner with these companies by providing supply chain services optimized for the IT market. Additionally, as consolidation occurs among certain reseller segments and customers gain market share and build capabilities similar to ours, certain resellers, such as direct marketers, may become our competitors. As some manufacturer and reseller customers move their back-room operations to distribution partners, such outsourcing and value-added services may become areas of opportunity. There has been an accelerated movement among transportation and logistics companies to provide many of these fulfillment and e-commerce supply chain services. Within this arena, we face competition from major transportation and logistics suppliers such as DHL, Menlo Worldwide Logistics and UPS Supply Chain Solutions. Our competitors in mobile logistics services include Brightstar (all regions), GENCO-ATC (North America and Latin America) and Arvato Logistics Services (Europe).
In our mobility distribution and services business we operate in a highly competitive industry and market and believe that such competition may intensify in the future. The distribution of mobile devices and the provision of logistics services within the global mobility industry have, in the past, been characterized by relatively low barriers to entry. The markets for mobile devices and integrated services are characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards, often resulting in product obsolescence, short product life cycles and changing competition. Accordingly, our success is dependent upon our ability to anticipate and identify technological changes in the industry and successfully adapt our offering of products and services to satisfy evolving industry and customer requirements.
The advent of cloud computing, or software-, platform- and infrastructure-as-a-service, provides another means for suppliers to deliver technology solutions directly to end-users and bypass the IT distribution channel. IT distributors are developing initiatives to remain relevant as this, and other alternative delivery models, evolve. We have developed service offerings designed to enable resellers to offer cloud computing solutions to end-users and will continue to refine service offerings around new delivery models.
We are constantly seeking to expand our business into areas closely related to our IT products and services distribution business. As we enter new business areas, including value-added services, we may encounter increased competition from current competitors and/or from new competitors, some of which may be our current customers.
We experience some seasonal fluctuation in demand in our business. For instance, we typically see lower demand, particularly in Europe, in the summer months. We also normally see an increase in demand in the September-to-December period, driven primarily by pre-holiday impacts on stocking levels in the retail channel and on volume of business for our North American fee-based logistics services.
We strive to maintain sufficient quantities of product inventories to achieve optimum order fill rates. Our business, like that of other distributors, is subject to the risk that the value of our inventory will be impacted
8
adversely by suppliers price reductions or by technological changes affecting the usefulness or desirability of the products comprising the inventory. It is the policy of many suppliers of technology and mobility products to offer distributors limited protection from the loss in value of inventory due to technological change or a suppliers price reductions. When protection is offered, the distributor may be restricted to a designated period of time in which products may be returned for credit or exchanged for other products or during which price protection credits may be claimed. We continually take various actions, including monitoring our inventory levels and controlling the timing of purchases, to maximize our protection under supplier programs and reduce our inventory risk. However, no assurance can be given that current protective terms and conditions will continue or that they will adequately protect us against declines in inventory value, or that they will not be revised in such a manner as to adversely impact our ability to obtain price protection. In addition, suppliers may become insolvent and unable to fulfill their protection obligations to us. We are subject to the risk that our inventory values may decline and protective terms under supplier agreements may not adequately cover the decline in values. In addition, we distribute a small amount of private label products for which price protection is not customarily contractually available, for which we do not normally enjoy return rights, and for which we bear certain increased risks. We manage these risks through pricing and continual monitoring of existing inventory levels relative to customer demand, reflecting our forecasts of future demand and market conditions. On an ongoing basis, we reduce inventory values for excess and obsolescence to assist in the liquidation of impacted inventories.
Inventory levels may vary from period to period, due, in part, to differences in actual demand from that forecasted when placing orders, the addition of new suppliers or new lines with current suppliers, expansion into new product areas, such as AIDC/POS and CE, and strategic purchases of inventory. In addition, payment terms with inventory suppliers may vary from time to time, and could result in fewer inventories being financed by suppliers and a greater amount of inventory being financed by our capital. Our payment patterns can be influenced by incentives, such as early pay discounts offered by suppliers.
We own or license various trademarks and service marks, including, among others, Ingram Micro, the Ingram Micro logo, V7 (Video Seven), VentureTech Network, AVAD, Vantex, BrightPoint and Aptec. Certain of these marks are registered, or are in the process of being registered, in the United States and various other countries. Even though our marks may not be registered in every country where we conduct business, in many cases we have acquired rights in those marks because of our continued use of them.
As of December 29, 2012, we employed more than 20,800 associates worldwide (as measured on a full-time equivalent basis). Certain of our employees in Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America are subject to union representation, collective bargaining or similar arrangements. Our success depends on the talent and dedication of our associates, and we strive to attract, hire, develop, and retain outstanding associates. We believe we realize significant benefits from having a strong and seasoned management team with many years of experience in the IT and related industries.
Corporate Social Responsibility
We introduced our Corporate Social Responsibility initiative three years ago, solidifying our commitment to being an outstanding corporate citizen in all aspects of our business, including prudent stewardship of our resources, limiting our impact on the environment and maintaining a safe and respectful workplace. Our efforts were recognized with the rank of 43 on Newsweeks 2012 Green Rankings of the 500 largest companies in the U.S., the highest rank among technology distributors. Our associates worldwide continue to show their commitment to saving energy, reducing paper consumption and contributing their time, skills and financial resources to our communities. Our sustainability commitment is formally captured on our corporate website and in our publicly available baseline annual report (www.ingrammicro.com/smartcitizen).

Regulatory Matters
The following disclosure is being made in accordance with Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012:
During the quarter ended December 29, 2012, Aptec, our wholly-owned non-U.S. subsidiary, made six sales to a reseller which identified its intended customer as Iranian Hospital, which is located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. These sales by our subsidiary to the reseller consisted of technology products resulting in revenue to us of approximately $81, with net profits of substantially less than that.
Iranian Hospital is operated by the Iranian Red Crescent Society, a humanitarian aid organization that is a member organization of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Federation (IFRC). According to its Fundamental Principles, the IFRC requires that all of its member organizations remain autonomous from government actors. The IFRC has informed us that it does not consider the Iranian Red Crescent Society to be an Iranian government entity, and that to its knowledge, the Iranian Red Crescent Society is a non-governmental organization with its own general assembly and governing board that is elected and independent of the government. Neither Iranian Hospital nor the Iranian Red Crescent Society appears on the list of specially designated nationals and blocked persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). However, OFAC has recently given us oral guidance that it believes the Iranian Red Crescent Society to be wholly owned by the Government of Iran and accordingly part of the Government of Iran. We have blocked further sales to resellers where Iranian Hospital or Iranian Red Crescent Society is identified as their customer.
As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any other activity, transaction or dealing by us or any of our affiliates during the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012 that requires disclosure in this report under Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012.
We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We therefore file periodic reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Such reports may be obtained by visiting the Public Reference Room of the SEC at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room can be obtained by calling the SEC at (800) SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains an Internet site (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS FOR PURPOSES OF THE SAFE
HARBOR PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES
LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information, so long as such information is
12
identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statement(s). Ingram Micro desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Act.
Our periodic and current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, periodic press releases, and other public documents and statements, may contain forward-looking statements. In addition, our representatives may participate in speeches and calls with market analysts; conferences, meetings and calls with investors and potential investors in our securities; and other meetings and conferences. Some of the information presented in these calls, meetings and conferences may also be forward-looking. We disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Described below and throughout this report are certain risks that could affect our business, financial results and results of operations. These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating your investment in our company because these factors could cause our actual results and conditions to differ materially from our historical performance or those projected in our forward-looking statements. Before you invest in our company, you should know that making such an investment involves risks, including the risks described below. The risks that have been highlighted here are not the only ones that we face. There may be additional risks that are not presently material or known. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
RISK FACTORS
Our acquisition and investment strategies may not produce the expected benefits, which may adversely affect our results of operations. We have made, and may continue to make, acquisitions or investments in companies around the world to further our strategic objectives and support key business initiatives. Acquisitions and investments involve risks and uncertainties, some of which may differ from those associated with our historical operations. For example, in 2012 we acquired BrightPoint, a global leader in mobile device lifecycle services; Aptec, a Dubai-based value-added distributor in the Middle East and Africa, with products and solutions covering data center, storage, security, networking and software categories, including technical services; and Promark, a value-added distributor in the U.S. with a core technology focus on data storage, data management and electronic document imaging products and services. We also initiated new business operations in Colombia and exited our Argentina business.
Significant risks and uncertainties related to our acquisition and investment strategies which could materially and adversely affect our financial performance include the following:
| distraction of managements attention away from normal business operations while coordinating and integrating a geographically dispersed organization; |
| insufficient profit generation to offset liabilities assumed and expenses associated with the strategy; |
| inability to successfully integrate the acquired businesses, which may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than anticipated, including inability to retain key employees, difficulties with integrating different business systems and technology platforms and consolidating corporate, administrative, technological and operational infrastructures; |
| inability to preserve our and the acquired companys customer, supplier and other important relationships; |
| inability to adapt to challenges of new markets, including geographies, products and services, or to identify new profitable business opportunities from expansion of existing products or services; |
| inability to adequately bridge possible differences in cultures and management philosophies; |
| exposure to new regulations, such as those relating to U.S. federal government procurement regulations, those in new geographies or those applicable to new products or services; |
13
| substantial increases in our debt; and |
| issues not discovered in our due diligence process. |
In addition, we may divest business units that do not meet our strategic, financial and/or risk tolerance objectives. No assurance can be given that we will be able to dispose of business units on favorable terms or without significant costs.
We are dependent on a variety of information systems, which, if not properly functioning and available, or if we experience system security breaches, data protection breaches, or other cyber-attacks, could adversely disrupt our business and harm our reputation and net sales. We depend on a variety of information systems for our operations, many of which are proprietary, which have historically supported many of our business operations such as inventory and order management, shipping, receiving, and accounting. Because most of our information systems consist of a number of internally developed applications, it can be more difficult to upgrade or adapt them compared to commercially available software solutions.
We are currently in the process of migrating our operations from our legacy proprietary system that was developed in the late-1980s to SAP in a phased, country-by-country approach over the next several years. We have deployed SAP in several operations in Asia-Pacific, Europe and Latin America, as well as SAP financial modules in North America since our first deployment in 2009. Due to challenges in our earlier round of implementations, we have chosen to slow down our deployment schedule in order to ensure the effectiveness and stability of upgrades already completed and apply what we have learned to subsequent implementations. We are continuing to evaluate our schedule for deploying the enterprise system in additional locations. While we will adjust the deployment schedule as required to best serve our customers, we can make no assurances that we will not have disruptions, delays and/or negative business impacts from forthcoming deployments.
Any disruptions, delays or deficiencies in the design and implementation of the new ERP system, or in the performance of our legacy systems could adversely affect our ability to effectively run and manage our business and potentially our customers ability to access our price and product availability information or place orders. Portions of our IT infrastructure also may experience interruptions, delays or cessations of service or produce errors in connection with systems integration or migration work that takes place from time to time. We may not be successful in implementing new systems and transitioning data, which could cause business disruptions and be more expensive, time consuming, disruptive and resource-intensive. Such disruptions could adversely impact our ability to fulfill orders and interrupt other processes. We may also be limited in our ability to integrate any new business that we may acquire. If our information systems do not allow us to transmit accurate information, even for a short period of time, to key decision makers, the ability to manage our business could be disrupted and the results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Failure to properly or adequately address these issues could impact our ability to perform necessary business operations, which could adversely affect our reputation, competitive position, business, results of operations and financial condition.
We also rely on the Internet for a significant percentage of our orders and information exchanges with our customers. The Internet, in general, and individual websites have experienced a number of disruptions, slowdowns and security breaches, some of which were caused by organized attacks. To date, we do not believe that our website and systems have experienced any material breakdowns, disruptions or breaches in security; however, we cannot assure that this will not occur in the future. If we were to experience a security breakdown, disruption or breach that compromised sensitive information, this could harm our relationships with our customers, suppliers or associates; impair our order processing; or more generally prevent our customers and suppliers from accessing information, which could cause us to lose business. Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate our network security and misappropriate or compromise our confidential information or that of third parties, create system disruptions or cause shutdowns. In addition, sophisticated hardware and operating system software and applications that we procure from third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture, including bugs and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere
14
with the operation of the system. The costs to us to eliminate or alleviate cyber or other security problems, bugs, viruses, worms, malicious software programs and security vulnerabilities could be significant, and our efforts to address these problems may not be successful and could result in interruptions, delays, cessation of service and loss of existing or potential customers that may impede our sales, distribution or other critical functions.
We manage and store various proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data relating to our business. In addition, we routinely process, store and transmit large amounts of data for our partners, including sensitive and personally identifiable information. Breaches of our security measures or the accidental loss, inadvertent disclosure or unapproved dissemination of proprietary information or sensitive or confidential data about us or our customers, including the potential loss or disclosure of such information or data as a result of fraud, trickery or other forms of deception, could expose us, our customers or the individuals affected to a risk of loss or misuse of this information, result in litigation and potential liability for us, damage our brand and reputation or otherwise harm our business. In addition, the cost and operational consequences of implementing further data protection measures could be significant. Such breaches, costs and consequences could adversely affect our business, results of operations or cash flows.
Changes in macroeconomic conditions can affect our business and results of operations. Our revenues, profitability, financial position and cash flows, are highly dependent on the broader movements of the macroeconomic environment. For example, our results of operations have been and continue to be adversely affected by the difficult conditions experienced in the global economy in recent periods. Economic weakness and uncertainty, including the ongoing macroeconomic challenges in many countries globally and the debt crisis in certain countries in the European Union, have resulted, and may result in the future, in decreased revenue, margins and earnings; difficulty managing inventory levels and collecting customer receivables; decreased availability of trade credit from suppliers or decreased capital availability through debt and similar financing from external parties. In addition, sustained uncertainty about current global economic conditions, continued negative economic trends or instability, or another recession, may negatively impact our business, leading to:
| reduced demand for products in general; |
| more intense competition, which may lead to loss of sales and/or market share; |
| reduced prices, and lower gross margin; |
| loss of vendor rebates; |
| extended payment terms with customers; |
| increased bad debt risks; |
| shorter payment terms with vendors; |
| reduced access to liquidity and higher financing and interest costs; |
| increased currency volatility making hedging more expensive and more difficult to obtain; and |
| increased inventory losses related to obsolescence and/or excess quantities. |
Each of these factors, individually or in the aggregate, could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The economic downturn may also lead us to take additional restructuring actions and reduce associated expenses in response to the lower sales volume. We may not be able to adequately adjust our cost structure in a timely fashion to remain competitive, which may cause our profitability to suffer.
Our European operations contributed 28% to our net revenue in 2012. The European Union is currently in a prolonged period of economic uncertainty. Policy disagreement between countries regarding challenges such as fiscal and financial risk sharing have become more pronounced. If a member nation of the European Union were to default on its national debt, the resulting financial turmoil could disrupt liquidity markets and materially hamper our or our business partners ability to access capital and materially adversely affect our business and
15
financial results. Other income and expense could vary materially from expectations depending on changes in interest rates, borrowing costs, currency exchange rates, hedging expenses and the fair value of derivative instruments.
Failure to retain and recruit key personnel would harm our ability to meet key objectives. Because of the nature of our business, which includes a high volume of transactions, business complexity, wide geographical coverage, and broad scope of products, suppliers, and customers, we are highly dependent on our ability to retain the services of our key management, sales, IT, operational, and finance personnel. Our continued success is also dependent upon our ability to retain and recruit other qualified employees, including highly skilled technical, managerial, and marketing personnel, to meet our needs. Competition for qualified personnel is intense. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining the personnel we require, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, we have, from time to time, reduced our personnel levels in various geographies and functions, in response to economic, business and other factors, through our restructuring and outsourcing activities. These reductions could negatively impact our relationships with our workforce, or make hiring other employees more difficult. In addition, failure to meet performance targets for the company may result in reduced levels of incentive compensation, which may affect our ability to retain key personnel. Additionally, changes in our workforce, including those resulting from government regulations, collective bargaining agreements or the availability of qualified personnel, could disrupt operations or increase our operating cost structure.
Our failure to adequately adapt to industry changes could negatively impact our future operating results. The technology and mobility products industry is subject to rapid technological change, new and enhanced product specification requirements, evolving industry standards and changes in the way technology products are distributed and/or managed. We have been and will continue to be dependent on innovations in hardware, software and services offerings, as well as the acceptance of those innovations by customers. A decrease in the rate of innovation, or the lack of acceptance of innovations by customers, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or cash flows. Suppliers may also give us limited or no access to new products being introduced.
Changes may cause inventory in stock to decline substantially in value or to become obsolete, regardless of the general economic environment. Although it is the policy of many suppliers of products to offer distributors like us, who purchase directly from them, limited protection from the loss in value of inventory due to technological change or such suppliers price reductions (price protection), if major suppliers decrease the availability of price protection to us, such a change in policy could lower our gross margins on products we sell or cause us to record inventory write-downs. In addition, suppliers could become insolvent and unable to fulfill their protection obligations to us. We offer no assurance that price protection will continue, that unforeseen new product developments will not adversely affect us, or that we will successfully manage our existing and future inventories.
Significant changes in supplier terms, such as higher thresholds on sales volume before distributors may qualify for discounts and/or rebates, the overall reduction in the amount of incentives available, reduction or termination of price protection, return levels, or other inventory management programs, or reductions in payment terms or trade credit, or vendor-supported credit programs, may adversely impact our results of operations or financial condition.
Finally, if we were not able to adequately adapt to the emergence of alternative means of distribution for software and hardware, such as site licenses, electronic distribution and cloud computing, our future operating results could be adversely affected.
We continually experience intense competition across all markets for our products and services. Our competitors include local, regional, national, and international distributors, as well as suppliers that employ a direct-sales model. As a result of intense price competition in the IT and mobility products and services distribution industry, our gross margins have historically been narrow and we expect them to continue to be
16
narrow in the future. In addition, when there is overcapacity in our industry, our competitors may reduce their prices in response to this overcapacity.
The competitive landscape has also experienced a consolidation among suppliers and customers and this trend is expected to continue, which could result in a reduction or elimination of promotional activities by the remaining suppliers or customers as they seek to reduce their expenditures, which could, in turn, result in decreased demand from end-users and our reseller customers for our products or services. Additionally, the past several years have witnessed a consolidation within the mobile operator community, and this trend is expected to continue. This trend could result in a reduction or elimination of promotional activities by the remaining mobile operators as they seek to reduce their expenditures, which could, in turn, result in decreased demand for our products or services. Moreover, consolidation of mobile operators reduces the number of potential contracts available to us and other providers of logistic services. We could also lose business or face price pressures if mobile operators that are our customers are acquired by other mobile operators that are our customers or not our customers.
We offer no assurance that we will not lose market share, or that we will not be forced in the future to reduce our prices in response to the actions of our competitors and thereby experience a reduction in our gross margins. Furthermore, to remain competitive we may be forced to offer more credit or extended payment terms to our customers. This could increase our required capital, financing costs, and the amount of our bad debt expenses.
We have also initiated and expect to continue to initiate other business activities and may face competition from companies with more experience and/or from new entrants in those markets. As we enter new areas of business or geographies, or we expand our offerings of new products or vendors, we may encounter increased competition from current competitors and/or from new competitors, some of which may be our current customers or suppliers, which may negatively impact our sales or profitability.
We operate a global business that exposes us to risks associated with conducting business in multiple jurisdictions. Sales outside the United States made up approximately 62% of our net revenue in 2012. In addition, an increasing portion of our business activity is being conducted in emerging markets, including China and India. As a result, our future operating results and financial condition could be significantly affected by risks associated with conducting business in multiple jurisdictions, including, but not limited to, the following:
| trade protection laws, policies and measures; |
| import and export duties, customs levies and value-added taxes; |
| compliance with foreign and domestic import and export regulations and anticorruption laws, including the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or similar laws of other jurisdictions for our business activities outside the U.S., the violation of which could result in severe penalties including monetary fines, criminal proceedings and suspension of export privileges; |
| managing compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and prohibitions, including compliance with local laws and regulations that differ or are conflicting among jurisdictions; |
| environmental laws and regulations, such as those relating to product disposal; |
| differing employment practices and labor issues; |
| political instability, terrorism and potential military conflicts or civilian unrest; economic instability in a specific country or region; |
| earthquakes, power shortages, telecommunications failures, water shortages, tsunamis, floods, hurricanes, typhoons, fires, extreme weather conditions, medical epidemics or pandemics and other natural or manmade disasters or business interruptions in a region or specific country; |
17
| complex and changing tax laws and regulations in various jurisdictions; |
| potential restrictions on our ability to repatriate funds from our foreign subsidiaries; and |
| difficulties in staffing and managing international operations. |
The potential criminal penalties for violations of export regulations and anti-corruption laws, particularly the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, data privacy laws and environmental laws and regulations in many jurisdictions, create heightened risks for our international operations. In the event that a governing regulatory body determined that we have violated applicable export regulations or anti-corruption laws, we could be fined significant sums, incur sizable legal defense costs and/or our export capabilities could be restricted, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business and reputation.
Additionally, we have been and expect to continue to be subject to new and increasingly complex U.S. and other local government regulations that affect our operations in the U.S. and globally. These regulations could result in increased costs to implement processes necessary to comply or such compliance could result in the reduction of the level of business we can effectively process.
While we have and will continue to adopt measures designed to promote compliance with these laws, we cannot assure you that such measures will be adequate or that our business will not be materially and adversely impacted in the event of an alleged violation.
We are also exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign currencies and interest rates. In particular, we are exposed to changes in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the local currency in which the products are sold and goods and services are purchased, including devaluation and revaluation of local currencies. Since more than half of our sales are from countries outside of the United States, other currencies, including, but not limited to, the euro, British pound, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Australian dollar, Mexican peso, and Brazilian real, can have an impact on Ingram Micros results (expressed in U.S. dollars).
In particular, the uncertainty with respect to the ability of certain European countries to continue to service their sovereign debt obligations and the related European financial restructuring efforts may cause the value of the euro and other European currencies to fluctuate. Currency variations also contribute to variations in sales of products and services in impacted jurisdictions. For example, in the event that one or more European countries were to replace the euro with another currency, Ingram Micros sales into such countries, or into Europe generally, would likely be adversely affected until stable exchange rates are established. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency rates, most notably the strengthening of the dollar against the euro, could adversely affect our revenue growth in future periods. In addition, currency variations can adversely affect margins on sales of our products in countries outside of the United States.
We have managed our exposure to fluctuations in the value of currencies and interest rates using a variety of financial instruments entered into with financial institutions. Although we believe that our exposures are appropriately diversified across counterparties and that, through our ongoing monitoring procedures, these counterparties are creditworthy financial institutions, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. In addition, our hedging activities may not offset fully any adverse financial impact resulting from currency variations, which could affect our financial results.
Terminations of a supply or services agreement or a significant change in supplier terms or conditions of sale could negatively affect our operating margins, revenue or the level of capital required to fund our operations. A significant percentage of our net sales relates to products sold to us by relatively few suppliers. As a result of such concentration risk, terminations of supply or services agreements, or a significant change in the terms or conditions of sale from one or more of our more significant partners, or bankruptcy or closure of business by one or more of our more significant partners could negatively affect our operating margins, revenues or the level of capital required to fund our operations. Our suppliers have the ability to make, and in the past have
18
made, rapid and significantly adverse changes in their sales terms and conditions, such as reducing the amount of price protection and return rights as well as reducing the level of purchase discounts and rebates they make available to us. In most cases, we have no guaranteed price or delivery agreements with suppliers. In certain product categories, such as systems, limited price protection or return rights offered by suppliers may have a bearing on the amount of product we may be willing to stock. We expect restrictive supplier terms and conditions to continue in the foreseeable future. Our inability to pass through to our customers the impact of these changes, as well as our failure to develop systems to manage ongoing supplier programs, could cause us to record inventory write-downs or other losses and could have a negative impact on our gross margins.
We receive purchase discounts and rebates from suppliers based on various factors, including sales or purchase volume, breadth of customers and achievement of other goals set by the vendors. These purchase discounts and rebates may affect gross margins. Many purchase discounts from suppliers are based on percentage increases in sales of products. Our operating results could be negatively impacted if these rebates or discounts are reduced or eliminated or if our vendors significantly increase the complexity of process and costs for us to receive such rebates.
Our ability to obtain particular products or product lines in the required quantities and to fulfill customer orders on a timely basis is critical to our success. The IT industry experiences significant product supply shortages and customer order backlogs from time to time due to the inability of certain suppliers to supply certain products on a timely basis. As a result, we have experienced, and may in the future continue to experience, short-term shortages of specific products, which can in turn have significant impacts on pricing of such products. In addition, suppliers who currently distribute their products through us may decide to shift to or substantially increase their existing distribution, through other distributors, their own dealer networks, or directly to resellers or end-users. Suppliers have, from time to time, made efforts to reduce the number of distributors with which they do business. This could result in more intense competition as distributors strive to secure distribution rights with these vendors, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results. If suppliers are not able to provide us with an adequate supply of products to fulfill our customer orders on a timely basis or we cannot otherwise obtain particular products or a product line or suppliers substantially increase their existing distribution through other distributors, their own dealer networks, or directly to resellers, our reputation, sales and profitability may suffer.
Substantial defaults by our customers or the loss of significant customers could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. As is customary in many industries, we extend credit to our customers for a significant portion of our net sales. Customers have a period of time, generally 30 to 45 days after date of invoice, to make payment. We are subject to the risk that our customers will not pay for the products they have purchased. The risk that we may be unable to collect on receivables may increase if our customers experience decreases in demand for their products and services or otherwise become less stable, due to adverse economic conditions. If there is a substantial deterioration in the collectability of our receivables or if we cannot obtain credit insurance at reasonable rates, are unable to collect under existing credit insurance policies, or fail to take other actions to adequately mitigate such credit risk, our earnings, cash flows and our ability to utilize receivable-based financing could deteriorate. In addition, our customers do not have an obligation to make purchases from us. In the event a significant customer decides to make its purchases from another distributor, experiences a significant change in demand from its own customer base, becomes financially unstable, or is acquired by another company, our revenues, and our ability to access rebates from vendors may be negatively impacted, resulting in an adverse effect on our business or results of operations.
Changes in, or interpretations of, tax rules and regulations, changes in mix of our business amongst different tax jurisdictions, and deterioration of the performance of our business may adversely affect our effective income tax rates or operating margins and we may be required to pay additional taxes and/or tax assessments, as well as record valuation allowances relating to our deferred tax assets. We are subject to both income and transaction-based taxes in substantially all countries and jurisdictions in which we operate,
19
which are complex. Changes to tax regulations or to their interpretation or application by governments could adversely affect our future earnings and cash flows. Our effective income tax rate in the future could be adversely affected by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes to our operating structure, changes in tax laws and the discovery of new information in the course of our tax return preparation process.
Likewise, unanticipated changes to our transaction tax liabilities could adversely affect our future results of operations, cash flows and our competitive position. We engage in a high volume of transactions where multiple types of consumption, commercial and service taxes are potentially applicable. An inability to appropriately identify, charge, remit and document such taxes, along with an inconsistency in the application of these taxes by the applicable taxing authorities, may negatively impact our gross and operating margins, financial position or cash flows.
We are subject to the continuous examination of both our income and transaction tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other domestic and foreign tax authorities. While we regularly evaluate our tax contingencies and uncertain tax positions to determine the adequacy of our provision for income and other taxes based on the technical merits and the likelihood of success resulting from tax examinations, any adverse outcome from these continuous examinations may have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial position.
Our goodwill and identifiable intangible assets could become impaired, which could reduce the value of our assets and reduce our net income in the year in which the write-off occurs. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the assets acquired. We also ascribe value to certain identifiable intangible assets, which consist primarily of customer relationships and trade names, among others, as a result of acquisitions. We may incur impairment charges on goodwill or identifiable intangible assets if we determine that the fair values of the goodwill or identifiable intangible assets are less than their current carrying values. We evaluate, on a regular basis, whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate all, or a portion, of the carrying amount of goodwill may no longer be recoverable, in which case an impairment charge to earnings would become necessary.
A decline in general economic conditions or global equity valuations could impact our judgments and assumptions about the fair value of our businesses and we could be required to record impairment charges on our goodwill or other identifiable intangible assets in the future.
We have incurred and will incur additional depreciation and amortization expense over the useful lives of certain assets acquired in connection with business combinations, and to the extent that the value of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite lives acquired in connection with a business combination and investment transaction become impaired, we may be required to incur material charges relating to the impairment of those assets. For example, we had $428,401 of goodwill and $372,482 of identifiable net intangible assets recorded in connection with various acquisitions as of December 29, 2012. If our future results of operations for these acquired businesses do not perform as expected or are negatively impacted by any of the risk factors noted herein or other unforeseen events, we may have to recognize impairment charges which would adversely affect our results of operations.
Changes in our credit rating or other market factors, such as adverse capital and credit market conditions or reductions in cash flow from operations, may affect our ability to meet liquidity needs, reduce access to capital, and/or increase our costs of borrowing. Our business requires significant levels of capital to finance accounts receivable and product inventory that is not financed by trade creditors. This is especially true when our business is expanding, including through acquisitions, but we still have substantial demand for capital even during periods of stagnant or declining net sales. In order to continue operating our business, we will continue to need access to capital, including debt financing and inbound and outbound flooring and draft discounting facilities. In addition, changes in payment terms with either suppliers or customers could increase our capital requirements. Our ability to repay current or future indebtedness when due, or have adequate
20
sources of liquidity to meet our business needs may be affected by changes to the cash flows of our subsidiaries. A reduction of cash flow generated by our subsidiaries may have an adverse effect on our liquidity. Under certain circumstances, legal, tax or contractual restrictions may limit our ability or make it more costly to redistribute cash between subsidiaries to meet our overall operational or strategic investment needs, or for repayment of indebtedness requirements.
We believe that our existing sources of liquidity, including cash resources and cash provided by operating activities, supplemented as necessary with funds available under our credit arrangements, will provide sufficient resources to meet our working capital and cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets, including increasingly complex regulatory constraints on these markets, may increase our costs for accessing the capital and credit markets. In addition, adverse capital and credit market conditions may also limit our ability to replace, in a timely manner, maturing credit arrangements or our ability to access committed capacities or the capital we require may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all, due to inability of our finance partners to meet their commitments to us. Furthermore, if we do not meet various covenant requirements of our corporate finance programs, including
cross-default threshold provisions, we may not be able to access the majority of our credit programs with our finance partners. The lack of availability of such funding could harm our ability to operate or expand our business.
In addition, our cash and cash equivalents (including trade receivables collected and/or monies set aside for payment to creditors) are deposited and/or invested with various financial institutions located in the various countries in which we operate. We endeavor to monitor these financial institutions regularly for credit quality; however, we are exposed to risk of loss on such funds or we may experience significant disruptions in our liquidity needs if one or more of these financial institutions were to suffer bankruptcy or similar restructuring.
We cannot predict what losses we might incur in litigation matters and contingencies that we may be involved with from time to time. There are various claims, lawsuits and pending actions against us. It is our opinion that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, we can make no assurances that we will ultimately be successful in our defense of any of these matters. See Part I. Item 3. Legal Proceedings, in this Form 10-K for a discussion of our material legal matters.
We may become involved in intellectual property disputes that could cause us to incur substantial costs, divert the efforts of management or require us to pay substantial damages or licensing fees. From time to time, we receive notifications alleging infringements of intellectual property rights allegedly held by others relating to the products or services we sell. Litigation with respect to patents or other intellectual property matters could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources and could have an adverse effect on our operations. Further, we may be obligated to indemnify and defend our customers if the products or services we sell are alleged to infringe any third partys intellectual property rights. While we may be able to seek indemnification from our suppliers to protect our customers and us against such claims, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such indemnification or that we will be fully protected against such claims. We may also be prohibited from marketing products, could be forced to market products without desirable features, or could incur substantial costs to defend legal actions, including where third parties claim that we or vendors who may or may not have indemnified us are infringing upon their intellectual property rights. In recent years, individuals and groups have begun purchasing intellectual property assets for the sole purpose of making claims of infringement and attempting to extract settlements from target companies. Even if we believe that such infringement claims are without merit, the claims can be time-consuming and costly to defend and divert managements attention and resources away from our business. Claims of intellectual property infringement may require us to enter into costly settlements or pay costly damage awards, or face a temporary or permanent injunction prohibiting us from marketing or selling certain products or services, which could affect our ability to compete effectively. If an infringement claim is successful, we may be required to pay damages or
21
seek royalty or license arrangements, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms. Even if we have an agreement that indemnifies us against such costs, the indemnifying party may be unable or unwilling to uphold its contractual obligations to us.
Our failure to comply with the requirements of environmental regulations could adversely affect our business. We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations addressing environmental and other impacts from product disposal, use of hazardous materials in products, recycling of products at the end of their useful life and other related matters. Compliance with these environmental laws may have a material adverse effect on our business. These laws include the European Union Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive as enacted by individual European Union countries and other similar legislation adopted in North America, which make producers of electrical goods, including computers and printers, responsible for collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of recovered products. While we strive to ensure we are in compliance with all applicable regulations, certain of these regulations impose strict liability. Additionally, we may be held responsible for the prior activities of entities that we have acquired. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in substantial costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, as well as third-party claims for property damage or personal injury. Further, environmental laws may become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with violation.
We face a variety of risks in our reliance on third-party service companies, including shipping companies for the delivery of our products and outsourcing arrangements. We rely almost entirely on arrangements with third-party shipping and freight forwarding companies for the delivery of our products. The termination of our arrangements with one or more of these third-party shipping companies, or the failure or inability of one or more of these third-party shipping companies to deliver products from suppliers to us or products from us to our customers, could disrupt our business and harm our reputation and operating results.
In addition, we have outsourced various transaction-oriented service and support functions to business process outsource providers. We have also outsourced a significant portion of our IT infrastructure function and certain IT application development functions to third-party providers. We may outsource additional functions to third-party providers. Our reliance on third-party providers to provide service to us, our customers and suppliers and for our IT requirements to support our business could result in significant disruptions and costs to our operations, including damaging our relationships with our suppliers and customers, if these third-party providers do not meet their obligations to adequately maintain an appropriate level of service for the outsourced functions or fail to adequately support our IT requirements. As a result of our outsourcing activities, it may also be more difficult to recruit and retain qualified employees for our business needs.
Changes in accounting rules could adversely affect our future operating results. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles are subject to interpretation by various governing bodies, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the SEC, who create and interpret appropriate accounting standards. Future periodic assessments required by current or new accounting standards may result in additional noncash charges and/or changes in presentation or disclosure. A change from current accounting standards could have a significant adverse effect on our reported financial position or results of operations.
Our quarterly results have fluctuated significantly. Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and will likely continue to do so in the future as a result of:
| general changes in economic or geopolitical conditions, including changes in legislation or regulatory environments in which we operate; |
| competitive conditions in our industry, which may impact the prices charged and terms and conditions imposed by our suppliers and/or competitors and the prices we charge our customers, which in turn may negatively impact our revenues and/or gross margins; |
22
| seasonal variations in the demand for our products and services, which historically have included lower demand in Europe during the summer months, worldwide pre-holiday stocking in the retail channel during the September-to-December period and the seasonal increase in demand for our North American fee-based logistics services in the fourth quarter, which affects our operating expenses and gross margins; |
| changes in product mix, including entry or expansion into new markets, as well as the exit or retraction of certain business; |
| the impact of and possible disruption caused by integration and reorganization of our businesses and efforts to improve our IT capabilities, as well as the related expenses and/or charges; |
| currency fluctuations in countries in which we operate; |
| variations in our levels of excess inventory and doubtful accounts, and changes in the terms of vendor-sponsored programs such as price protection and return rights; |
| changes in the level of our operating expenses; |
| the impact of acquisitions and divestitures; |
| variations in the mix of profits between multiple tax jurisdictions, including losses in certain tax jurisdictions in which we are not able to record a tax benefit, as well as changes in assessments of uncertain tax positions or changes in the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets, which could affect our provision for taxes and effective tax rate; |
| the occurrence of unexpected events or the resolution of existing uncertainties, including, but not limited to, litigation or regulatory matters; |
| the loss or consolidation of one or more of our major suppliers or customers; |
| product supply constraints; and |
| interest rate fluctuations and/or credit market volatility, which may increase our borrowing costs and may influence the willingness or ability of customers and end-users to purchase products and services. |
These historical variations in our business may not be indicative of future trends in the near term. Our narrow operating margins may magnify the impact of the foregoing factors on our operating results. We believe that you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons of our operating results as an indication of future performance. In addition, the results of any quarterly period are not indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Our corporate headquarters is located in Santa Ana, California. We support our global operations through an extensive sales and administrative office and distribution network throughout North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. We operate 119 distribution centers worldwide (greater than 5,000 square feet in size).
We lease substantially all our facilities on varying terms. We do not anticipate any material difficulties with the renewal of any of our leases when they expire or in securing replacement facilities on commercially reasonable terms. We also own several facilities, the most significant of which are two of our distribution centers in Plainfield, Indiana and part of our office/distribution facilities in Straubing, Germany.

Our Brazilian subsidiary has received a number of tax assessments including: (1) a 2005 Federal import tax assessment claiming certain commercial taxes totaling Brazilian Reais 12,714 ($6,232 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) were due on the import of software acquired from international vendors for the period January through September of 2002; (2) a 2007 Sao Paulo Municipal tax assessment claiming Brazilian Reais 29,111 ($14,270 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) of service taxes were due on the resale of acquired software covering years 2002 through 2006, plus Brazilian Reais 25,972 ($12,731 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) of associated penalties; and (3) a 2011 Federal income tax assessment, a portion of which claims statutory penalties totaling Brazilian Reais 15,900 ($7,794 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for delays in providing certain electronic files during the audit of tax years 2008 and 2009, which was conducted through the course of 2011. After working with our advisor, we believe the matters raised in the various assessments, other than the three assessments noted above, represent a remote risk of loss.
In addition to the amounts assessed, it is possible that we could also be assessed up to Brazilian Reais 27,253 ($13,359 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for penalties and interest on the 2005 assessment and up to Brazilian Reais 120,394 ($59,017 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for interest and inflationary adjustments on the 2007 assessment. After working with our advisors on these matters, we believe we have good defenses against each matter and do not believe it is probable that we will suffer a material loss for amounts in the 2007 and the 2011 assessments or any other unassessed amounts noted above. While we will continue to vigorously pursue administrative and, if applicable, judicial action in defending against the 2005 Federal import tax assessment, we continue to maintain a reserve for the full amount assessed at December 29, 2012.
In March 2008, we and one of our subsidiaries were named as defendants in a lawsuit arising out of the 2005 bankruptcy of Refco, Inc., and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, Refco). The liquidators of numerous Cayman Island-based hedge funds filed suit (the Krys action) against Grant Thornton LLP, Mayer Brown Rowe & Maw, LLP, Phillipp Bennet, and numerous other individuals and entities. The Krys action alleges that we and our subsidiary aided and abetted the fraud and breach of fiduciary duty of Refco insiders and others by participating in loan transactions between the subsidiary and Refco in early 2000 and early 2001, causing damage to the hedge funds in an unspecified amount. The action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On July 31, 2012, the trial court entered judgment in our favor, dismissing plaintiffs claims against us and our subsidiary with prejudice. Plaintiffs have appealed that judgment, but we do not expect the final disposition of the Krys matter to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

As of December 29, 2012 there were 493 holders of record of our Common Stock. Because many of such shares are held by brokers and other institutions, on behalf of shareowners, we are unable to estimate the total number of shareowners represented by these record holders.
Dividend Policy. We have neither declared nor paid any dividends on our Common Stock in the preceding two fiscal years. We currently intend to retain future earnings to fund ongoing operations and finance the growth and development of our business. Any future decision to declare or pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant. In addition, certain of our debt facilities contain restrictions on the declaration and payment of dividends.

Share Repurchase Program. In October 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a new three-year, $400,000 share repurchase program, of which $124,095 is remaining for repurchase at December 29, 2012. Under the program, we may repurchase shares in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions. Our repurchases are funded with available borrowing capacity and cash. The timing and amount of specific repurchase transactions will depend upon market conditions, corporate considerations and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. There was no share repurchase activity during the fourth quarter of 2012.

Overview of Our Business
Sales
We are the largest wholesale technology distributor and a global leader in IT supply-chain, mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions worldwide based on revenues. We offer a broad range of IT products and supply chain solutions and help generate demand and create efficiencies for our customers and suppliers around the world. Our acquisition of BrightPoint in October 2012 expanded our product and service offerings to mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions worldwide. Our results of operations have been, and are expected to continue to be, directly affected by the conditions in the economy in general. In this regard, our consolidated net sales declined 14.1% in 2009, primarily as a result of the downturn in the macroeconomic environment that started in 2008. As the recession became more pronounced globally in 2009, we began to strategically leverage our gross margins and strong balance sheet to drive incremental sales in the second half of 2009, while the overall IT demand environment started showing modest signs of improvement near the end of that year. In 2010, the overall global economy continued to improve and businesses began to re-invest in technology despite pockets of financial weakness continuing in certain economies. These economic drivers, coupled with our continued efforts to enhance our customer and vendor positions in the IT market, drove an increase in our consolidated net sales of 17.2% in 2010. In 2011, we experienced a more moderate increase of 5.0% which reflected a more stable demand level for technology products and services across a number of the markets in which we operate, with greater strength coming from North and Latin America, offset in part by softer demand, particularly in consumer markets in Europe and parts of Asia-Pacific, and business disruptions in Australia due to our ERP system deployment in the first quarter of 2011 and the loss of market share that followed in that business. The demand level for technology products remained generally stable but not robust in 2012 with continued strength coming from North and Latin America, while the Asia-Pacific region experienced strong growth in two of our largest operations, China and India, offset in part by the continued challenges in Australia. Our sales and results of operations have also been impacted by our acquisitions of BrightPoint, Aptec Holdings Ltd., or Aptec, and Promark Technology Inc., or Promark, which together provided approximately three percentage points of our consolidated sales growth in 2012. These factors, offset in part by the continued soft economic conditions in most parts of Europe, increased our consolidated net sales by 4.1% in 2012.
We are in the process of migrating our operations from our legacy proprietary system that was developed in the late-1980s to SAP in a phased, country-by-country approach over the next several years. We have deployed SAP in several operations globally beginning in 2009. In February 2011, we also deployed the new system in Australia, one of our largest operations. This deployment was somewhat unique in that Australia had operated on a different legacy enterprise system than most of our other operations and had recently implemented Ingram Micros warehouse management system, designed for our largest, most sophisticated distribution centers. This deployment revealed connectivity issues with our warehouse management system and certain web-based tools, resulting in order delays that diminished sales and margins. Although these system connectivity issues have been resolved, the customer experience with our new system was also not as robust as that which we had provided
27
with our legacy systems thereby also impacting sales. In 2012, we have addressed the customer-service and order management functionality of the new system to better meet our customers needs, which we expect to yield improvement in customer service levels in 2013. The pace of recovery in Australia during 2012 yielded subdued revenues and profitability, as we addressed these additional functionality points and as we adopted more aggressive marketing and pricing strategies to regain lost market share.
Gross Margin
The IT and mobility distribution industry in which we operate is characterized by narrow gross profit as a percentage of net sales, or gross margin, and narrow income from operations as a percentage of net sales, or operating margin. Historically, our margins have been impacted by pressures from price competition and declining average selling prices, as well as changes in vendor terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, variations in vendor rebates and incentives, our ability to return inventory to vendors, and time periods qualifying for price protection. We expect competitive pricing pressures and restrictive vendor terms and conditions to continue in the foreseeable future. In addition, our margins have been and may continue to be impacted by our inventory levels which are based on projections of future demand, product availability, product acceptance and marketability, and market conditions. Having available inventory during periods of product shortages enables us to better meet customer demands and may provide potential for favorable pricing conditions; however, a sudden decline in demand and/or rapid technological changes in products could cause us to have a charge for excess and/or obsolete inventory. We continue to refine our pricing strategies, inventory management processes and vendor program processes to respond to market conditions. In addition, we continuously monitor and work to change, as appropriate, certain terms, conditions and credit offered to our customers to reflect those being imposed by our vendors, recover costs and/or facilitate sales opportunities. We have also strived to improve our profitability through diversification of product offerings, including our presence in specialty product and service categories, such as AIDC/POS, enterprise computing, cloud computing, and consumer electronics. Our acquisition of BrightPoint significantly enhanced our fee-for-service logistics offerings with mobile device lifecycle services and solutions which we expect will improve margins in future periods.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses or SG&A Expenses
Another key area for our overall profitability management is the monitoring and control of our level of SG&A expenses. As the various factors discussed above have impacted our levels of sales and gross margins over the past several years, we have instituted a number of cost reduction and profit enhancement programs and as well as other reorganization actions across each of our regions to respond to the downturn in the economy and to further enhance productivity and profitability. As the economic downturn began in 2008, and impacted our levels of sales as discussed previously herein, our SG&A expenses increased to 4.36% and 4.47% of consolidated net sales in 2008 and 2009, respectively, from 4.18% or less in the years prior. To counter this, we implemented in 2008 and 2009, a number of additional expense-reduction programs with the most significant impacts in North America and Europe. These actions included the rationalization and re-engineering of certain roles and processes, resulting in the reduction of headcount and consolidation of certain facilities. These efforts to reduce costs, as well as continued cost control measures since the completion of these actions, allowed us to leverage our higher volume of net sales in 2010 and 2011, resulting in the decline of SG&A expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales to 4.02% and 3.95%, respectively, our lowest levels for this metric in a decade. In 2012, our SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 4.08% and have primarily been impacted by our acquisitions of BrightPoint and Aptec, as well as our smaller strategic acquisitions to increase our presence in specialty product offerings, such as AIDC/POS and enterprise computing. While these acquisitions increased our revenues and market shares, they also represent opportunities to streamline and realize operational synergies. However, as we grow our higher-margin product offerings and fee-for-service mobility device lifecycle solutions and traditional logistics offerings, we expect our SG&A expenses will increase as a percent of consolidated net sales.
28
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Our overall profitability is also impacted by amortization, as well as impairment losses, on our intangible assets. Our amortization of intangible assets was $15,877, $17,270 and $16,743 in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, or relatively flat at 0.05% of consolidated net sales from 2008 through 2010. Certain intangible assets related to our large acquisition in 2004 were fully amortized by 2010 reducing our expense to $12,550 or 0.03% of consolidated net sales in 2011. In 2012, amortization increased to $20,711 or 0.05% of consolidated net sales primarily due to our acquisition of BrightPoint. We expect our amortization expense in 2013 to be approximately $47,000 related to our existing intangible assets (see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements).
Acquisitions
We have complemented our internal growth initiatives with strategic business acquisitions over the past five years and will continue to evaluate potential acquisitions consistent with our growth strategy. In October 2012, we have expanded our product and service offerings to mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions globally through the acquisition of BrightPoint. We have expanded our value-added distribution of AIDC/POS solutions through acquisitions of the distribution businesses of Eurequat SAS, Intertrade A.F. AG, and Paradigm Distribution Ltd. in Europe, and Vantex Technology Distribution Limited, or Vantex, and the Cantechs Group in Asia-Pacific. We have expanded our presence in the mid-range enterprise market through the acquisitions of Promark in North America, Aretê Sistemas S.A., or Aretê, Computacenter Distribution, or CCD, Albora Soluciones SL, or Albora, and interAct BVBA, or interAct, in Europe and Aptec, Value Added Distributors Limited, or VAD, and Asiasoft Hong Kong Limited, or Asiasoft, in Asia-Pacific.
Working Capital and Debt
The IT products and services distribution business is working capital intensive. Our business requires significant levels of working capital, primarily trade accounts receivable and inventory, which is partially financed by vendor trade accounts payable. As a general rule, our net investment in working capital increases when sales volumes increase. Conversely, this level of investment tends to decline in times of declining sales. For our working capital needs, we rely heavily on trade credit from vendors, and also on trade accounts receivable financing programs and proceeds from our senior unsecured notes and debt facilities. Due to our narrow operating margins, we maintain a strong focus on management of working capital and cash provided by operations, as well as our debt and cash levels. However, our debt and/or cash levels may fluctuate significantly on a day-to-day basis due to timing of customer receipts and periodic payments to vendors. A higher concentration of payments received from customers toward the end of each month, combined with the timing of payments we make to our vendors, typically yields lower debt balances and higher cash balances at our period-ends than is the case throughout the quarter or year. Our future debt requirements may increase and/or our cash levels may decrease to support growth in our overall level of business, changes in our required working capital profile, or to fund acquisitions, share repurchases or other investments in the business.
Our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussions and analyses of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of significant contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we review and evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, those that relate to trade accounts receivable; vendor programs; inventory; goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets; income taxes; and contingencies and litigation. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and a variety of other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making our judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that
29
are not readily available from other sources. Although we believe our estimates, judgments and assumptions are appropriate and reasonable based upon available information, these assessments are subject to a wide range of sensitivities. Therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are affected by our judgments, estimates and/or assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
| Trade Accounts Receivable We provide allowances for doubtful accounts on our trade accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Changes in the financial condition of our customers or other unanticipated events, which may affect their ability to make payments, could result in charges for additional allowances exceeding our expectations. Our estimates are influenced by the following considerations: the large number of customers and their dispersion across wide geographic areas; a continuing credit evaluation of our customers financial condition; aging of trade accounts receivable, individually and in the aggregate; credit insurance coverage; the value and adequacy of collateral received from our customers in certain circumstances; our historical loss experience; and changes in credit risk and capital availability of our customers resulting from economic conditions. From time to time, we have had one customer account for 10% or more of our consolidated trade accounts receivable, although no single customer has accounted for 10% or more of our consolidated net sales. |
| Vendor Programs We receive funds from vendors for price protection, product return privileges, product rebates, marketing/promotion, infrastructure reimbursement and meet-competition programs, which are recorded as adjustments to product costs, revenue, or SG&A expenses according to the nature of the program. Some of these programs may extend over more than one quarterly reporting period. We accrue rebates or other vendor incentives as earned based on sales of qualifying products or as services are provided in accordance with the terms of the related program. Actual rebates may vary based on volume or other sales achievement levels, which could result in an increase or reduction in the estimated amounts previously accrued. We also provide reserves for receivables on vendor programs for estimated losses resulting from vendors inability to pay or rejections of claims by vendors. |
| Inventory Our inventory levels are based on our projections of future demand and market conditions. Any sudden decline in demand and/or rapid product improvements and technological changes could cause us to have excess and/or obsolete inventory. On an ongoing basis, we review for estimated excess or obsolete inventory and write down our inventory to its estimated net realizable value based upon our forecasts of future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than our forecasts, additional inventory write-downs may be required. Our estimates are influenced by a number of considerations, including: protection from loss in value of inventory under our vendor agreements; our rights to return inventory to vendors in accordance with contractual stipulations; aging of inventory; changes in demand due to the economic environment; rapid product improvements and technological changes and historical loss experience. |
|
Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets We evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with the provisions issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB. We assess potential impairment of our goodwill, other identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when there is evidence that recent events or changes in circumstances, such as significant changes in the manner of use of the asset, negative industry or economic trends, and significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, have made recovery of an assets carrying value unlikely. No impairment of our goodwill or identifiable intangible assets was indicated in 2012, 2011 or 2010. |
| Income Taxes As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income taxes in each of the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax expense together with assessing the future tax impact of any differences resulting from the different treatment of certain items, such as the timing for recognizing revenues and expenses |
30
for tax versus financial reporting purposes. These differences may result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our consolidated balance sheet. We are required to assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets, which include net operating loss carryforwards, tax credits and temporary differences that are expected to be deductible in future years, will be recoverable from future taxable income. In making that assessment, we consider the nature of the deferred tax assets and related statutory limits on utilization, recent operating results, future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which we operate and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. If, based upon available evidence, recovery of the full amount of the deferred tax assets is not likely, we provide a valuation allowance on any amount not likely to be realized. In that regard, we recorded a charge of $41,845 in the fourth quarter of 2012 to provide a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in Australia, primarily as a result of the continued losses incurred in that country. We also considered new events that occurred during the fourth quarter, in particular the acquisition of BrightPoint and the impact the combination will have on our ability to utilize our foreign tax credits in the U.S., and concluded that it is now more likely than not that an additional $29,978 of foreign tax credits are realizable, resulting in a partial release of the valuation allowance on those deferred tax assets. |
Our effective tax rate includes the impact of not providing taxes on undistributed foreign earnings considered indefinitely reinvested. Material changes in our estimates of cash, working capital and long-term investment requirements in the various jurisdictions in which we do business could impact our effective tax rate if we no longer consider our foreign earnings to be indefinitely reinvested.
The provision for tax liabilities and recognition of tax benefits involves evaluations and judgments of uncertainties in the interpretation of complex tax regulations by various taxing authorities. In situations involving uncertain tax positions related to income tax matters, we do not recognize benefits unless their sustainability is deemed more likely than not. As additional information becomes available, or these uncertainties are resolved with the taxing authorities, revisions to these liabilities or benefits may be required, resulting in additional provision for or benefit from income taxes reflected in our consolidated statement of income.
| Contingencies and Litigation There are various claims, lawsuits and pending actions against us, including those noted in Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings. If a loss arising from these actions is probable and can be reasonably estimated, we record the amount of the estimated loss. If the loss is estimated using a range within which no point is more probable than another, the minimum estimated liability is recorded. If a loss is reasonably possible, but not probable, we disclose the nature of the significant contingency and, if quantifiable, the possible loss or range of loss that could result from the resolution of the matter. As additional information becomes available, we reassess any potential liability related to these actions and may need to revise our estimates. Such revisions or ultimate resolution of these matters could materially impact our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position (see Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements). |
Results of Operations
We do not allocate stock-based compensation expense (see Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements) to our operating units; therefore, we are reporting this as a separate amount. The following tables set forth our net sales by geographic region and the percentage of total net sales represented thereby, as well as operating income and operating margin by geographic region for each of the fiscal years indicated. In 2012, we have added a reportable segment for mobility which reflects our acquisition of BrightPoint.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 29, 2012, December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011
Our consolidated net sales increased by 4.1% and 5.0% in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Regionally, net sales from our North American operations increased in 2012 and 2011 by 4.1% and 4.8%, respectively, net sales from our Asia-Pacific operations increased by 5.4% and 4.6%, respectively, and net sales from our Latin American operations increased by 8.8% and 11.8%, respectively, while net sales from our European operations decreased by 6.7% in 2012 and increased 4.6% in 2011. Net sales from our BrightPoint operations acquired during the fourth quarter of 2012 was $1,041,374. Our acquisitions of BrightPoint, Aptec in Asia-Pacific and Promark in North America during the fourth quarter of 2012 contributed approximately 3.1% of the year-over-year consolidated sales growth, while Aptec and Promark contributed approximately 0.9% and less than 0.1% of the year-over-year Asia-Pacific and North America sales growth, respectively. In 2012, the translation impacts of weaker European, Asia-Pacific and Latin American currencies relative to the U.S. dollar had negative impacts of approximately six, two and six percentage points in the respective regions net sales with a combined negative effect of approximately three percentage points on our consolidated net sales. In 2012, the remaining increase in our consolidated and regional net sales in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily reflected a generally solid demand for technology products and services across a number of the markets in which we operate with greater strength coming from our North and Latin American regions. Our North American net sales was driven by solid growth in all U.S. business divisions, including double-digit increases in higher margin businesses of physical security, accessories and fee-for-service logistics, offset partially by a decline in our Canadian operation primarily due to soft economic conditions and the benefit of a key product launch in the prior year that did not recur this year. The increase in our Latin American net sales in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily reflected continued robust demand in the region, despite the negative impact of foreign exchange translation discussed above. The decrease in our European net sales in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily attributable to the translation impacts of European currencies, as discussed above. Our European net sales were relatively flat in local currencies reflecting declines in our Southern European and Benelux countries, all of which continue to experience challenging economic conditions, offset by solid growth in Germany, the UK and France. The increase in our Asia-Pacific net sales in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily attributable to the strong growth in two of our largest operations, China and India. We continue to experience challenges in Australia, which negatively affected the regions revenue growth by five percentage points, but did not have a significant impact on our consolidated revenue growth.
The solid increase in our consolidated and regional net sales in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily reflected translation impact of strengthening European, Asia-Pacific and Latin American currencies relative to the U.S. dollar which contributed approximately five, five and one percentage points of the increase in the respective regions net sales. The combined translation impacts of these foreign currencies contributed approximately three percentage points of the year-over-year increase in our consolidated net sales in 2011. The remaining increase in our consolidated and regional net sales in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily reflected a generally stable level of demand for technology products and services across a number of the markets in which we operate with greater strength coming from our North and Latin American regions. However, this was offset in part by soft demand, particularly in consumer markets in Europe and parts of Asia-Pacific, business disruptions in Australia due to the system deployment beginning in February 2011 and the slower than expected market-share recovery in that country since then, which negatively impacted our year-over-year Asia-Pacific region and consolidated net sales in 2011 by approximately nine and two percentage points, respectively. Our acquisitions in 2011 and 2010 did not have a material impact on our year-over-year regional and consolidated sales growth.
Our gross margin was 5.38% in 2012, 5.25% in 2011 and 5.47% in 2010. The gross margin in 2012 and 2011 included approximately two and eight basis points, respectively, from a favorable inventory position and pricing on hard disk drives due to product shortages caused by the 2011 flooding in Thailand. The gross margin in 2010 included the positive impact of $9,112, or three basis points of consolidated net sales, from partial releases of our commercial tax reserve in Brazil as the statute of limitations for an assessment had expired. The increase in gross margin in 2012 reflects the higher mix of mobility logistics services which was accretive to 2012 gross profit as a percentage of net sales by approximately 14 basis points primarily due to the acquisition of BrightPoint and improved performance in our higher margin specialty businesses and fee-for-service logistics business, largely offset by a greater mix of high volume, lower gross margin sales. Gross margin was also
33
impacted by a highly competitive selling environment in many countries and a greater mix of sales into the e-tail and retail segments in international markets, which is generally lower margin business. The decline in gross margin in 2011 reflected the negative impact of approximately seven basis points primarily resulting from the disruption in our Australian operations, as well as competitive pricing dynamics driven in part by the weakness in several European and Asian markets, a greater mix of lower gross margin products, such as tablets, and higher sales in lower gross margin geographies due to more rapid growth in emerging markets such as China and India. These factors were partially offset by our favorable inventory position and pricing on hard disk drives as discussed above. We continuously evaluate and modify our pricing policies and certain terms, conditions and credit offered to our customers to reflect those being imposed by our vendors and general market conditions. We may experience fluctuations in our sales growth in the near term, or these modifications may negatively impact our gross margin. In addition, increased competition and any further retractions or softness in economies throughout the world may hinder our ability to maintain and/or improve gross margins from the levels realized in recent periods.
Total SG&A expenses were $1,542,650, $1,431,955 and $1,389,978 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 4.08%, 3.95% and 4.02% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total SG&A expenses increased $110,695, or 7.7%, and increased 13 basis points as a percentage of net sales in 2012 compared to 2011. Approximately $86,000 of the increase relates to our acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase also reflects direct variable costs associated with the growth in volume of our business as well as acquisition-related costs of $11,898, asset impairments of $1,923 associated with the closure of our in-country Argentina operations, costs of $2,500 associated with the exit of our former chief executive officer, and investments in strategic initiatives and system and process improvements incurred in the current year. These factors were generally offset by the translation impacts of foreign currencies, which yielded an approximate $34,000 reduction year-over-year, a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $3,593 associated with our long-term incentive plans and our continued cost control management. Our SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, declined seven basis points in 2011 compared to 2010, primarily due to leverage on the higher volume of net sales and cost control measures throughout our business in 2011. Total SG&A expenses increased $41,977 or 3.0% in 2011 compared to 2010. The single biggest driver of this increase was the translation impact of strengthening foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, which contributed approximately $39,000 of the year-over-year increase. An increase in stock-based compensation expense of $3,749 associated with our long-term incentive plans and continued investments in strategic growth initiatives and system enhancements, as well as merit compensation increases for our associates, were more than offset by successful cost control measures throughout our business and reductions in bad debt expense due to better experience in the collections of aged accounts receivable.
Amortization of intangible assets was $20,711, $12,550 and $16,743 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Amortization as a percentage of net sales were 0.05%, 0.03% and 0.05% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in 2012 was primarily due to our acquisition of BrightPoint. In 2010, certain intangible assets related to our large acquisition in 2004 were fully amortized reducing our expense in 2011.
In 2012, we recorded a net charge for reorganization costs of $9,676, or approximately 0.03% of consolidated net sales, which consisted of $9,044 primarily related to employee termination benefits for workforce reductions in our Australian and New Zealand operations in Asia-Pacific, Germany and other parts of our European operations, as well as some in our Latin America and BrightPoint operations; and $632 primarily related to a previously restructured facility in North America for which we modified estimates for higher than initially expected costs through the life of the remaining lease; partially offset by the net reversal of certain employee termination obligations from reorganization actions recorded in earlier years that were settled favorably. In 2011, we recorded a net charge for reorganization costs of $5,131, or approximately 0.01% of consolidated net sales, which consisted primarily of $6,215 of employee termination benefits for workforce reductions in our Australian operations in Asia-Pacific as well as in parts of North America, Europe and Latin America, partially offset by $1,084 for the net reversal of certain excess lease obligation liabilities from reorganization actions recorded in earlier years that were settled favorably. See Note 3 to our consolidated
34
financial statements for further details. We may pursue other business process and/or organizational changes, which may result in additional charges related to consolidation of facilities, restructuring of business functions and workforce reductions in the future.
Our consolidated operating margins were 1.22%, 1.26% and 1.40% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Regionally, operating margins from our North American operations were 1.79%, 1.84% and 1.58% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating margins from our Europe operations were 0.97%, 1.20% and 1.25% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating margins from our Asia-Pacific operations were 0.64%, 0.59% and 1.49% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating margins from our Latin American operations were 1.94%, 1.43% and 2.02% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating margin from BrightPoint was 1.08% in 2012. Our operating margins included the impacts of reserve reversals for commercial taxes, acquisition and integration charges, and reorganization costs as discussed previously. The overall decrease in our consolidated and Asia-Pacific operating margin, in 2012 and 2011 compared to 2010 largely reflects the impact of disruptions in our Australian business as discussed previously. The decrease in our European operating margin in 2012 compared to 2011 and 2010 was largely due to the continued softness in the economic environment in region, particularly in Southern Europe and the Benelux regions. Our 2011 European operating margin benefited by approximately 20 basis points from a favorable inventory position and pricing on hard disk drives due to product shortages caused by the 2011 flooding in Thailand. In North America, our operating margin in 2012 and 2011 improved compared to 2010 largely due to the economies of scale realized from the higher net sales level and greater mix of business from higher margin specialty business units. The year-over-year increase in our Latin American operating margin in 2012 primarily reflected continued sales growth in the region. In 2011, our Latin American operations experienced losses due to continued operational challenges in our Brazilian operations, which generated the overall decline in our operating margin from 2010.
Net other expense consisted primarily of interest income and expense, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, costs of discounting drafts received from customers, primarily in Europe, and other non-operating gains and losses. We incurred net other expense of $66,168, $70,775 and $46,372 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily attributable to the loss recognized in 2011 of $5,624 from the termination of our cash flow hedge and write-off of the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs related to the settlement of our senior unsecured term loan in September 2011, offset partially by higher interest expense as a result of the $300,000 in public debt issued in August 2012 and other increases in our other debt, which were primarily associated with our acquisition of BrightPoint, as well as higher net foreign-currency losses in 2012. The increase in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily attributable to higher interest expense as a result of a full year of interest expense associated with our $300,000 in public debt issued in August 2010; a lower net cash position resulting from $225,905 in share repurchases; increased working capital required to support year-over-year sales growth; the loss of $5,624 from the termination of our cash flow hedge and write-off of the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs related to our senior unsecured term loan; and higher net losses on foreign currency exchange, the majority of which relate to the foreign-currency translation impact on Euro-based inventory purchases in our pan-European entity, which designates the U.S. dollar as its functional currency.
Our provision for income taxes in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $90,275, $143,631 and $120,001, respectively. Our effective tax rate in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was 22.8%, 37.0% and 27.4%, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in the effective tax rate from 2011 to 2012 is largely driven by the net non-cash income tax benefit of $34,890 recorded in 2012, representing a 8.8% decrease in the effective tax rate for the year, which was primarily comprised of: a tax benefit of $35,613 related to the write-off of the historical tax basis of the investment we have maintained in one of our Latin American subsidiary holding companies; a tax benefit of $29,978 related to the partial release of a valuation allowance that had previously been recorded against foreign tax credit carryforwards maintained in the U.S.; a tax benefit of $4,857 related to the release of the valuation allowance previously recorded by our subsidiary in Spain; and a tax benefit of $2,277 driven largely by the realization of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiry of the respective statutes of limitation in the jurisdictions in which the benefits were claimed; partially offset by a tax charge of $41,845 for a valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets in Australia. The year-over-year increase in the effective tax rate from 2010 to 2011 primarily reflected the non-cash income tax charge of $24,810 recorded in 2011, representing a 6.4%
35
increase in the effective tax rate for the year, driven by the establishment of a valuation allowance against all of our deferred tax assets in Brazil. Aside from the items discussed above, the changes in our effective tax rates in 2012, 2011 and 2010 were primarily attributable to a change in the mix of profit among different tax jurisdictions and losses in certain tax jurisdictions in which we are not able to record a tax benefit due to uncertainty of realizability.
Quarterly Data; Seasonality
Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and will likely continue to do so in the future as a result of various factors as more fully described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The following table sets forth certain unaudited quarterly historical financial data for each of the eight quarters in the two years ended December 29, 2012. This unaudited quarterly information has been prepared on the same basis as the annual information presented elsewhere herein and, in our opinion, includes all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the selected quarterly information. This information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The operating results for any quarter shown are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
We finance our working capital needs and investments in the business largely through net income before noncash items, available cash, trade and supplier credit, and various financing facilities. As a distributor, our business requires significant investment in working capital, particularly trade accounts receivable and inventory, which is partially financed by vendor trade accounts payable. As a general rule, when sales volumes are increasing, our net investment in working capital dollars typically increases, which generally results in decreased cash flow generated from operating activities. Conversely, when sales volume decreases, our net investment in working capital decreases, which generally results in increases in cash flows generated from operating activities. The following is a detailed discussion of our cash flows for 2012, 2011 and 2010. The lower cash and cash equivalents level at December 29, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011, primarily reflects: our acquisitions of BrightPoint, Aptec and Promark; our investments in property and equipment; our repurchases of Class A Common Stock; and our investment in the business in the form of net working capital to support our year-over-year sales growth. These factors are partially offset by: the ongoing generation of profits from the business excluding noncash items, the proceeds from the issuance of $300,000 senior unsecured notes due 2022, and from debt facilities as well as the proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
As of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have book overdrafts of $415,207 and $511,172, respectively, representing checks issued on disbursement bank accounts but not yet paid by such banks. These amounts are classified as accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheet and are typically paid by the banks in a relatively short period of time. We have closely managed our overall working capital investment in 2012 and 2011 and our level of working capital days achieved as of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were both at the low end of our targeted range. Our investment in working capital may increase in future periods as we pursue profitable sales and market share growth and/or new business opportunities through targeted investment in working capital. This may include strategic pursuit of additional early pay discounts on trade accounts payable or purchase discounts on inventory, or we may allow extended payment terms or larger credit lines to certain customers. While each of these factors may yield net additional investment in working capital, as well as sales growth and/or improved profitability, we will, however, manage the risks associated with these strategies and the optimization of resulting returns on invested capital.
Operating activities provided net cash of $45,721, $295,859 and $179,322 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As noted above, our cash flows from operations are significantly affected by net working capital which is in turn impacted by both fluctuations in volume of sales, as well as normal period-to-period variations in days of working capital outstanding due to the timing of collections from customers, movement of inventory and payments to vendors. The net cash provided by operating activities in each of the last three years principally reflects our net income before noncash charges, offset partially by an increase in our net working capital. The principal driver of the increase in working capital is the previously discussed higher sales volumes in 2012 and 2011, as our working capital days outstanding were relatively flat at the end of both 2012 and 2011, and the higher levels of sales to close out the fourth quarter of 2010 compared to the end of 2009 as we continued to experience positive trends in the macroeconomic environment in the fourth quarter of 2010 compared to the fourth quarter of 2009.
Investing activities used net cash of $989,029, $124,620 and $79,351 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The net cash used by investing activities in 2012 was primarily due to cash payments related to the acquisitions of BrightPoint, Aptec, and Promark totaling $899,464. The remainder of cash used in investing activities was
37
primarily related to capital expenditures. The capital expenditures for 2011 were higher than 2010 and 2012 which primarily reflected investments to enhance our underlying infrastructure and IT systems and our incremental investment in a new warehouse in Australia in 2011. We presently estimate that our capital expenditures will approximate $100,000 in 2013 for ongoing investments to support existing infrastructure and continued enhancements to our IT systems.
Financing activities provided net cash of $639,761 and $146,357 in 2012 and 2010, respectively, and used net cash of $414,042 in 2011. The net cash provided by financing activities in 2012 primarily reflects $296,256 in net proceeds from the issuance of our $300,000 senior unsecured notes due in 2022, $355,918 in net proceeds from our debt facilities and $31,335 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by the repurchase of Class A Common Stock for $50,000 under our stock repurchase programs. The increased proceeds from our financing activities were largely used to finance our acquisitions in 2012. The net cash used by financing activities in 2011 primarily reflects the repayment of the outstanding principal balance of our senior unsecured term loan and related interest rate swap agreement of $239,752 and the repurchase of $225,905 of Class A Common Stock, partially offset by $39,465 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $9,017 in net proceeds from our revolving credit facilities used to fund normal operations. The net cash provided by financing activities in 2010 primarily reflects $297,152 in net proceeds from the issuance of our $300,000 senior unsecured notes due in 2017 and $38,439 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by the repurchase of Class A Common Stock for $152,285 under our stock repurchase programs, and net repayments of $40,672 on our debt facilities and senior unsecured term loan.
Our levels of debt and cash and cash equivalents are highly influenced by our working capital needs. As such, our cash and cash equivalents balances and borrowings fluctuate from period-to-period and may also fluctuate significantly within a quarter. The fluctuation is the result of the concentration of payments received from customers toward the end of each month, as well as the timing of payments made to our vendors. Accordingly, our period-end debt and cash balances may not be reflective of our average levels or maximum debt and/or minimum cash levels during the periods presented or at any point in time.
Acquisitions
In 2012, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of BrightPoint and Promark and the assets and liabilities of Aptec. The acquisition of BrightPoint expanded our product and service offerings to mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions worldwide. The acquisition of Aptec extended our reach into the Middle East and Africa, with products and solutions covering data center, storage, security, networking and software categories, including technical services, while the acquisition of Promark further strengthened our position in higher value products and solutions and extended our reach within the public sector in the North America region. These entities were acquired for an aggregate price, including the assumption of debt, of $899,126.
In 2011, we acquired the assets and liabilities of Aretê in Spain, which further strengthened our capabilities in value-added distribution in our Europe region. This entity was acquired for an aggregate cash price of $2,106.
In 2010, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of interAct and Albora in our Europe region and the assets and liabilities of Asiasoft in our Asia-Pacific region. These acquisitions further strengthened our capabilities in virtualization, security and middleware solutions and enterprise computing. These entities were acquired for an aggregate cash price of $8,329.
For a full discussion of the above acquisitions, refer to Note 4 of our consolidated financial statements.
Capital Resources
We have a range of financing facilities which are diversified by type, maturity and geographic region with various financial institutions worldwide with a total capacity of approximately $3,531,275, of which $1,054,543
38
was outstanding at December 29, 2012. These facilities have staggered maturities through 2022. Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $595,147 and $891,403 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, of which $533,585 and $773,816, respectively, resided in operations outside of the U.S. Our ability to repatriate these funds to the U.S. in an economical manner may be limited. Our cash balances are deposited and/or invested with various financial institutions globally that we endeavor to monitor regularly for credit quality. However, we are exposed to risk of loss on funds deposited with the various financial institutions and money market mutual funds and we may experience significant disruptions in our liquidity needs if one or more of these financial institutions were to suffer bankruptcy or similar restructuring. As of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had book overdrafts of $415,207 and $511,172, respectively, representing checks issued on disbursement bank accounts but not yet paid by such banks. These amounts are classified as accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheet and are typically paid by the banks in a relatively short period of time. We believe that our existing sources of liquidity provide sufficient resources to meet our capital requirements, including the potential need to post cash collateral for identified contingencies (see Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements and Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings), for at least the next twelve months. Nevertheless, depending on capital and credit market conditions, we may from time to time seek to increase or decrease our available capital resources through changes in our debt or other financing facilities. Finally, since the capital and credit markets can be volatile, we may be limited in our ability to replace in a timely manner maturing credit facilities and other indebtedness on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or to access committed capacities due to the inability of our finance partners to meet their commitments to us.
The following is a detailed discussion of our various financing facilities.
In August 2012, we issued through a public offering $300,000 of 5.00% senior unsecured notes due 2022, resulting in cash proceeds of approximately $296,256, net of discount and issuance costs of $1,794 and $1,950, respectively. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on February 10 and August 10, commencing February 10, 2013. At December 29, 2012, our senior unsecured notes due 2022 have a carrying value of $298,275, net of unamortized discount of $1,725. We also have $300,000 of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year. These notes may be redeemed by us in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at redemption prices that are designated in the terms and conditions of the respective notes.
We have a revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in North America which provides for up to $675,000 in borrowing capacity. In November 2012, we entered into an agreement to increase the borrowing capacity of this program for up to $675,000 from the previous amount of $500,000, and to extend its maturity to November 2015. This financing program, subject to the financial institutions approval and availability of eligible receivables, may be increased to $900,000 in accordance with the extended terms of the program. The interest rate of this program is dependent on designated commercial paper rates (or, in certain circumstances, an alternate rate) plus a predetermined margin. We had borrowings of $345,000 and $0 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, under this North American financing program.
We have a revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in Europe that matures in January 2014 and provides for a borrowing capacity of up to 100,000, or approximately $132,000 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. The current program requires certain commitment fees, and borrowings under this program incur financing costs based on EURIBOR plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under this European financing program.
We have two other revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs in Europe, which mature in May 2013, and respectively provide for a maximum borrowing capacity of £60,000, or approximately $97,000, and 90,000, or approximately $119,000, at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. These programs require certain commitment fees, and borrowings under the programs incur financing costs, based on LIBOR and EURIBOR, respectively, plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under these European financing programs.
39
We have a multi-currency revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in Asia-Pacific that matures in May 2014 and provides for a borrowing capacity of up to 160,000 Australian dollars, or approximately $166,000 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. The interest rate for this financing program is dependent upon the currency in which the drawing is made and is related to the local short-term bank indicator rate for such currency plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under this Asia-Pacific financing program.
Our ability to access financing under all our trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, as discussed above, is dependent upon the level of eligible trade accounts receivable as well as continued covenant compliance. We may lose access to all or part of our financing under these programs under certain circumstances, including: (a) a reduction in sales volumes leading to related lower levels of eligible trade accounts receivable; (b) failure to meet certain defined eligibility criteria for the trade accounts receivable, such as receivables remaining assignable and free of liens and dispute or set-off rights; (c) performance of our trade accounts receivable; and/or (d) loss of credit insurance coverage for our European and Asia-Pacific facilities. At December 29, 2012, our actual aggregate capacity under these programs was approximately $1,124,000 based on eligible trade accounts receivable available, of which $345,000 of such capacity was used. Even if we do not borrow, or choose not to borrow to the full available capacity of certain programs, most of our trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs prohibit us from assigning, transferring or pledging the underlying eligible receivables as collateral for other financing programs. At December 29, 2012, the amount of trade accounts receivable which would be restricted in this regard totaled approximately $1,529,000.
We have a $940,000 revolving senior unsecured credit facility from a syndicate of multinational banks, which matures in September 2016. In November 2012, we entered into a lender joinder agreement with an additional syndicate of multinational banks, which increased our revolving senior unsecured credit facility to $940,000 from the previous amount of $750,000. The interest rate on this facility is based on LIBOR, plus a predetermined margin that is based on our debt ratings and leverage ratio. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under this credit facility. This credit facility may also be used to issue letters of credit. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, letters of credit of $4,491 and $4,700, respectively, were issued to certain vendors and financial institutions to support purchases by our subsidiaries, payment of insurance premiums and flooring arrangements. Our available capacity under the agreement is reduced by the amount of any outstanding letters of credit.
We also have additional lines of credit, short-term overdraft facilities and other credit facilities with various financial institutions worldwide, which provide for borrowing capacity aggregating approximately $804,000 at December 29, 2012. Most of these arrangements are on an uncommitted basis and are reviewed periodically for renewal. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, we had $111,268 and $92,428 outstanding under these facilities. The weighted average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under these facilities, which may fluctuate depending on geographic mix, was 7.9% and 8.1% per annum at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, letters of credit totaling $30,829 and $31,405, respectively, were issued to various customs agencies and landlords to support our subsidiaries. The issuance of these letters of credit reduces our available capacity under these agreements by the same amount.
Covenant Compliance
We are required to comply with certain financial covenants under the terms of certain of our financing facilities, including restrictions on funded debt and liens and covenants related to tangible net worth, leverage and interest coverage ratios and trade accounts receivable portfolio performance including metrics related to receivables and payables. We are also restricted by other covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the amount of additional indebtedness we can incur, dividends we can pay, and the amount of common stock that
40
we can repurchase annually. At December 29, 2012, we were in compliance with all material covenants or other material requirements set forth in our trade accounts receivable-backed programs, senior unsecured notes due 2017 and 2022, revolving unsecured credit facility and other credit agreements, as discussed above.
Trade Accounts Receivable Factoring Programs
We have three uncommitted factoring programs, one in North America and two in Europe, under which trade accounts receivable of two large customers may be sold, without recourse, to financial institutions. The total amount of receivables factored under these programs, at any point in time, cannot exceed approximately $355,000 based on December 29, 2012 exchange rates. Available capacity under these programs is dependent on the amount of trade accounts receivable already sold to and held by the financial institutions, the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold into these programs and the financial institutions willingness to purchase such receivables. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had a total of $242,626 and $165,744, respectively, of trade accounts receivable sold to and held by the financial institutions under these programs.
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The following table summarizes our financing capacity and contractual obligations at December 29, 2012, and the effects that scheduled payments on such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods. The amounts do not include interest. Except for interest related to our $300,000 of 5.00% and $300,000 of 5.25% senior unsecured notes, all other interest is incurred at variable rates (see Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements).

(1) | The aggregate capacity amount of $1,189,000 in the table above represents the maximum capacity available under these facilities. Our actual capacity is dependent upon the actual amount of eligible trade accounts receivable that may be used to support these facilities. As of December 29, 2012, our actual aggregate capacity under these programs based on eligible trade accounts receivable was approximately $1,124,000, of which $345,000 of such capacity was used. |
(2) | The capacity amount in the table above represents the maximum capacity available under these facilities. Certain of these facilities can also be used to support letters of credit. At December 29, 2012, letters of credit totaling $35,320 were issued to certain vendors to support payment of insurance claims or the performance by our subsidiaries with respect to certain lease agreements, vendor purchase obligations, or other operating liabilities. The issuance of these letters of credit also reduces our available capacity under the respective facilities by the same amount. |
(3) | We lease the majority of our facilities and certain vehicles and equipment under noncancelable operating leases. Amounts in this table represent future minimum payments on operating leases that have had original noncancelable lease terms in excess of 12 months. |
(4) | At December 29, 2012, our liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, was $45,921, the current portion of which amounted to $2,580. We are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of payments of the long-term portion of our liability for unrecognized tax benefits, or the amount the long-term portion will increase or decrease over time; therefore, this portion of the liability was excluded in the contractual obligations table above (see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements). |
We have guarantees to third parties that provide financing to a limited number of our customers. Net sales under these arrangements accounted for less than one percent of our consolidated net sales for both 2012 and 2011. The guarantees require us to reimburse the third party for defaults by these customers up to an aggregate of $11,000. The fair value of these guarantees has been recognized as cost of sales to these customers and is included in other accrued liabilities.
Because our commitments under our employee benefit plans are not fixed amounts, they have not been included in the contractual obligations table.
Other Matters
See Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings for discussions of legal matters and contingencies.
New Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for the discussion of new accounting standards.
Market Risk
We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and interest rate changes due to our international sales and global funding. In the normal course of business, we employ established policies and procedures to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies using a variety of financial instruments. It is our policy to utilize financial instruments to reduce risks where internal netting cannot be effectively employed and not to enter into foreign currency or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.
Our foreign currency risk management objective is to protect our earnings and cash flows resulting from sales, purchases and other transactions from the adverse impact of exchange rate movements. Foreign exchange risk is managed by using forward contracts to offset exchange risk associated with receivables and payables. We generally maintain hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages. Cross-currency interest rate swaps are used to hedge foreign currency denominated principal and interest payments related to intercompany and third-party loans. During 2012, hedged transactions were denominated in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars,
42
euros, British pounds, Danish krone, Hungarian forint, Israeli shekel, Norwegian kroner, Swedish krona, Swiss francs, Bulgarian lev, Polish zloty, South African rand, Australian dollars, Chinese yuan, Indian rupees, Malaysian ringgit, New Zealand dollars, Philippine pesos, Singaporean dollars, Sri Lankan rupees, Thai baht, Indonesian rupiah, Argentine pesos, Brazilian reais, Chilean pesos and Mexican pesos.
We are exposed to changes in interest rates on a portion of our long-term debt used to maintain liquidity and finance working capital, capital expenditures and business expansion. Our management objective is to finance our business at interest rates that are competitive in the marketplace while moderating our exposure to volatility in interest costs. To achieve our objectives, we may utilize both variable- and fixed-rate debt with a portion of our variable interest rate exposure from time to time mitigated through interest rate swaps.
Market Risk Management
Foreign exchange and interest rate risk and related derivatives used are monitored using a variety of techniques including a review of market value, sensitivity analysis and Value-at-Risk, or VaR. The VaR model determines the maximum potential loss in the fair value of market-sensitive financial instruments assuming a one-day holding period. The VaR model estimates were made assuming normal market conditions and a 95% confidence level. There are various modeling techniques that can be used in the VaR computation. Our computations are based on interrelationships between currencies and interest rates (a variance/co-variance technique). The model includes all of our forwards, interest rate swaps, fixed-rate debt and nonfunctional currency denominated cash and debt (i.e., our market-sensitive derivative and other financial instruments as defined by the SEC). The trade accounts receivable and accounts payable denominated in foreign currencies, which certain of these instruments are intended to hedge, were excluded from the model.
The VaR model is a risk analysis tool and does not purport to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by us, nor does it consider the potential effect of favorable changes in market rates. It also does not represent the maximum possible loss that may occur. Actual future gains and losses will likely differ from those estimated because of changes or differences in market rates and interrelationships, hedging instruments and hedge percentages, timing and other factors.
The following table sets forth the estimated maximum potential one-day loss in fair value, calculated using the VaR model. We believe that the hypothetical loss in fair value of our derivatives would be offset by gains in the value of the underlying transactions being hedged.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S.) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We review our estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis. Significant estimates primarily relate to the realizable value of accounts receivable, vendor programs, inventory, goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when: an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred, including transfer of title and risk of loss for product sales, or services have been rendered for service revenues; the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collection is reasonably assured. Service revenues represent less than 10% of total net sales for 2012, 2011 and 2010. We, under specific conditions, permit our customers to return or exchange products. The provision for estimated sales returns is recorded concurrently with the recognition of revenue. The net impact on gross margin from estimated sales returns is included in allowances against trade accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheet. We also have limited contractual relationships with certain of our customers and suppliers whereby we assume an agency relationship in the transaction. In such arrangements, we recognize as revenues the net fee associated with serving as an agent.
Vendor Programs
Funds received from vendors for price protection, product rebates, marketing/promotion, infrastructure reimbursement and meet-competition programs are recorded as adjustments to product costs, revenue, or selling,
50

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
general and administrative (SG&A) expenses according to the nature of the program. Some of these programs may extend over one or more quarterly reporting periods. We accrue rebates or other vendor incentives as earned based on sales of qualifying products or as services are provided in accordance with the terms of the related program.
We sell products purchased from many vendors, but generated approximately 18%, 21% and 23% of our net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from products purchased from Hewlett-Packard Company and 10% of our net sales in 2012 from products purchased from Apple, Inc. There were no other vendors whose products represented 10% or more of our net sales for each of the last three fiscal years.
Warranties
Our suppliers generally warrant the products distributed by us and allow returns of defective products, including those that have been returned to us by our customers. We generally do not independently warrant the products we distribute; however, local laws might impose warranty obligations upon distributors (such as in the case of supplier liquidation). We are obligated to provide warranty protection for sales of certain IT products within the European Union (EU) for up to two years as required under the EU directive where vendors have not affirmatively agreed to provide pass-through protection. In addition, we warrant the services we provide, products that we build-to-order from components purchased from other sources, and our own branded products. Provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded at the time of sale and periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Warranty expense and the related obligations are not material to our consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement
Financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries, for which the functional currency is the local currency, are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange rate for each period for statement of income items. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders equity. The functional currency of a few operations within our Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions is the U.S. dollar; accordingly, the monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues, expenses, gains or losses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period, and nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. The resultant remeasurement gains and losses of these operations as well as gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statement of income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Book overdrafts of $415,207 and $511,172 as of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, represent checks issued on disbursement bank accounts but not yet paid by such banks. These amounts are classified as accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheet. We typically fund these overdrafts through normal collections of funds or transfers from bank balances at other financial institutions. Under the terms of our facilities with the banks, the respective financial institutions are not legally obligated to honor the book overdraft balances as of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, or any balance on any given date.

Trade Accounts Receivable Factoring Programs
We have three uncommitted factoring programs, one in North America and two in Europe, under which trade accounts receivable of two large customers may be sold, without recourse, to financial institutions. The total amount of receivables factored under these programs, at any point in time, cannot exceed approximately $355,000 based on December 29, 2012 exchange rates. Available capacity under these programs is dependent on the amount of trade accounts receivable already sold to and held by the financial institutions, the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold into these programs and the financial institutions willingness to purchase such receivables. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had a total of $242,626 and $165,744, respectively, of trade accounts receivable sold to and held by the financial institutions under these programs. Factoring fees of $3,822, $3,068 and $1,605 incurred in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the sale of trade accounts receivable under both facilities are included in other in the other expense (income) section of our consolidated statement of income.
Inventory
Our inventory consists of finished goods purchased from various vendors for resale. Inventory is stated at the lower of average cost or market, and is determined from the price we pay vendors, including freight and duties. We do not include labor, overhead or other general or administrative costs in our inventory.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives noted below. We also capitalize computer software costs that meet both the definition of internal-use software and defined criteria for capitalization. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Depreciable lives of property and equipment are as follows:
Buildings |
30-40 years | |||
Leasehold improvements |
3-17 years | |||
Distribution equipment |
5-10 years | |||
Computer equipment and software |
3-10 years |
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.
Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
We assess potential impairments to our long-lived and intangible assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. If required, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the assets. The gross carrying amounts of the finite-lived identifiable intangible assets of $445,385 and $183,557 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, are amortized over their remaining estimated lives ranging up to 20 years with the predominant amounts having lives of 3 to 10 years. The net carrying amount was $372,482 and $73,330 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Amortization expense was $20,711, $12,550 and
52

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
$16,743 for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Future minimum amortization expense of finite-lived identifiable intangible assets that we expect to recognize over the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

There were no impairments to our long-lived and other identifiable intangible assets in 2012, 2011 and 2010.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in an acquisition and should be reviewed at least annually for potential impairment.
Additions to goodwill in 2012 were due to our acquisitions of BrightPoint and Promark Technology Inc. (Promark) in North America and Aptec Holdings Ltd. (Aptec) in Asia-Pacific during the fourth quarter of 2012 (see Note 4).
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for 2012 are as follows:

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable from customers and vendors, and derivative financial instruments. Our cash and cash equivalents are deposited and/or invested with various financial institutions globally that are monitored by us regularly for credit quality. Credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of customers and their dispersion across geographic areas. No single customer has accounted for 10% or more of our consolidated net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010 and no customer accounts receivable balance was greater than 10% at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers financial conditions, obtain credit insurance in many locations and require collateral in certain circumstances. We maintain an allowance for estimated credit losses.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We operate in various locations around the world. We reduce our exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments in situations
53
INGRAM MICRO INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
where there are not offsetting balances that create a natural hedge. The market risk related to the foreign exchange agreements is offset by changes in the valuation of the underlying items being hedged. In accordance with our policy, we do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor are we a party to leveraged derivatives.
Foreign exchange risk is managed primarily by using forward contracts to hedge foreign currency-denominated receivables, payables and intercompany loans and expenses. Interest rate swaps and forward contracts are used to hedge foreign currency-denominated principal and interest payments related to intercompany loans.
All derivatives are recorded in our consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The estimated fair value of derivative financial instruments represents the amount required to enter into similar offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on market-derived prices. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in current earnings.
The notional amount of forward exchange contracts is the amount of foreign currency bought or sold at maturity. The notional amount of interest rate swaps is the underlying principal amount used in determining the interest payments exchanged over the life of the swap. Notional amounts are indicative of the extent of our involvement in the various types and uses of derivative financial instruments but are not a measure of our exposure to credit or market risks through our use of derivatives.
Credit exposure for derivative financial instruments is limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties obligations under the contracts exceed our obligations to the counterparties. We manage the potential risk of credit losses through careful evaluation of counterparty credit standing, selection of counterparties from a limited group of financial institutions and other contract provisions including collateral deposits.
Fair Value Measurement
The carrying amounts of our cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, marketable trading securities (included in other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet), accounts payable and other accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. Our North American, European and Asia-Pacific revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs bear interest at variable rates based on designated commercial paper rates and local reference rates, respectively, plus a predetermined fixed margin. The interest rates of our revolving unsecured credit facilities and other debt are dependent upon the local short-term bank indicator rate for a particular currency, which also resets regularly. The carrying amounts of all these facilities approximate their fair value because of the revolving nature of the borrowings and because the all-in rate (consisting of variable rates and fixed margin) adjusts regularly to reflect current market rates with appropriate consideration for our credit profile.
Our $300,000 senior unsecured notes due in August 2022 (see Note 6) had a fair value of approximately $307,000 at December 29, 2012 while our $300,000 senior unsecured notes due in August 2017 had a fair value of approximately $326,000 and $324,000 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
Treasury Stock
We account for repurchased shares of common stock as treasury stock. Treasury shares are recorded at cost and are included as a component of stockholders equity in our consolidated balance sheet.

(In 000s, except per share data)
Comprehensive Income
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted the provisions of a new accounting standard and provided a consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the three years ended December 29, 2012. Comprehensive income consisted primarily of our net income, foreign currency translation adjustments, fair value adjustments to our interest rate swap agreement designated as a cash flow hedge, which we settled in September 2011, and unrealized gains and losses from our foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges.
Earnings Per Share
We report a dual presentation of Basic Earnings Per Share (Basic EPS) and Diluted Earnings Per Share (Diluted EPS). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS uses the treasury stock method to compute the potential dilution that could occur if stock-based awards and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised.
The computation of Basic EPS and Diluted EPS is as follows:
Fiscal Year Ended | ||||||||||||

There were approximately 3,487, 2,671 and 5,266 stock-based awards in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Class A Common Stock, thereby resulting in an antidilutive effect.
Income Taxes
We estimate income taxes in each of the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax expense together with assessing the future tax impact of any differences resulting from the different treatment of certain items, such as the timing for recognizing revenues and expenses for tax versus financial reporting purposes. These differences may result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our consolidated balance sheet. We are required to assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets, which include net operating loss carryforwards, tax credits and temporary differences that are expected to be deductible in future years, will be recoverable from future taxable income. In making that assessment, we consider the nature of the deferred tax assets and related statutory limits on utilization, recent operating results, future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which we operate and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. If, based upon available
55
INGRAM MICRO INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
evidence, recovery of the full amount of the deferred tax assets is not likely, we provide a valuation allowance on any amount not likely to be realized. In that regard, we recorded a charge of $41,845 in the fourth quarter of 2012 to provide a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in Australia, and a benefit of $29,978 for the partial release of a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets for the foreign tax credit carryforwards in the U.S.
Our effective tax rate includes the impact of not providing taxes on undistributed foreign earnings considered indefinitely reinvested. Material changes in our estimates of cash, working capital and long-term investment requirements in the various jurisdictions in which we do business could impact our effective tax rate if we no longer consider our foreign earnings to be indefinitely reinvested.
The provision for tax liabilities and recognition of tax benefits involves evaluations and judgments of uncertainties in the interpretation of complex tax regulations by various taxing authorities. In situations involving uncertain tax positions related to income tax matters, we do not recognize benefits unless their sustainability is deemed more likely than not. As additional information becomes available, or these uncertainties are resolved with the taxing authorities, revisions to these liabilities or benefits may be required, resulting in additional provision for or benefit from income taxes reflected in our consolidated statement of income.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options and the closing market price of our common stock on the date of the grant to determine the fair value of our restricted stock and restricted stock units. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded for all stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are ultimately expected to vest as the requisite service is rendered. We recognize these compensation costs, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is the vesting term of outstanding stock-based awards. We estimate the forfeiture rate based on our historical experience during the preceding five fiscal years.
New Accounting Standards
In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standard update regarding the testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. This update provides an entity the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If the entity concludes that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, it is required to determine the fair value of the asset and perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with the guidance on the impairment of intangible assets other than goodwill. If an entity concludes otherwise, no further quantitative assessment is required. This guidance is effective for us beginning December 30, 2012 (the first day of fiscal 2013). Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard update to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In December 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard related to enhanced disclosures on offsetting (netting) of assets and liabilities in the financial statements. This standard requires improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either allowed to be offset in accordance with another accounting standard or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with another accounting standard. Under this standard, financial statements should disclose the gross amounts of those recognized assets and liabilities and the amounts offset, whether permitted by another accounting standard or subject to master netting arrangement, to determine the net amounts presented in the statement of financial position. This standard is effective for us
56

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
beginning December 30, 2012 (the first day of fiscal 2013) and must be applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. We are currently in the process of assessing what impact this standard may have on our consolidated financial position.
Note 3 Reorganization Costs
During 2012, we implemented headcount reductions primarily in Australia and New Zealand to better align our operating expenses with each countrys lower sales volumes. Additionally, we moved certain transactions-oriented service and support functions to shared service centers in Asia-Pacific and Europe. We closed our in-country Argentina operations in Latin America and will service this market through our export operations in Miami. Associated with these actions, we incurred reorganization costs of $9,044, that was comprised of $8,744 related to employee termination benefits for workforce reductions for 359 employees, and $300 related to contract terminations in BrightPoint all of which were fully utilized by end of 2012. The employee termination benefits by segment were $4,523 for 261 employees in Asia-Pacific, $3,087 for 54 employees in Europe, $668 for 19 employees in BrightPoint, $432 for 21 employees in Latin America, and $34 for 4 employees in North America. The reorganization costs and activities in 2012 and the remaining liabilities related to these actions are summarized in the table below:

Adjustments reflected in the table above include the net foreign currency impact that increased the U.S. dollar liability by $41. We expect the remaining liabilities to be substantially utilized by the end of 2014.
During 2012, we also recorded a charge for asset impairments of $1,923 associated with the closure of our in-country Argentina operations. This charge is included in SG&A expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of income.
In the second half of 2011, we implemented a cost-reduction program related to our Australian operations in Asia-Pacific primarily to align our level of operating expenses with declines in sales volume as a result of the system-implementation complications and loss of market share in that country. We also implemented headcount reductions in certain operations in North America, Europe and Latin America. The remaining liabilities and 2012 activities associated with these actions are summarized in the table below:

Adjustments reflected in the table above include a reduction of $115 and $158 to reorganization liabilities recorded in prior years in Asia-Pacific and North America, respectively, for lower than expected employee termination benefits, as well as the net foreign currency impact that increased the U.S. dollar liability by $63. The remaining liabilities will be substantially utilized by mid-2013.
57
INGRAM MICRO INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
The reorganization costs in 2010 primarily represent a net charge of $1,137, which consisted of $1,354 in North America primarily for higher than expected costs associated with exited facilities, partially offset by $183 in Europe for lower than expected costs associated with employee termination benefits and facility consolidations and $34 in Asia-Pacific for lower than expected costs associated with employee termination benefits.
In 2009 and earlier, we incurred costs to integrate past acquisitions, as well as launching various other outsourcing and optimization plans, to improve operating efficiencies and better align our level of operating expenses with the decline in sales volumes resulting from the economic downturn in recent years. While these reorganization actions were completed prior to the periods included herein, future cash outlays are required for future lease payments related to exited facilities. The remaining liabilities and 2012 activities associated with these actions are summarized in the table below:

We expect the remaining liabilities, all of which are associated with facility costs, to be fully utilized by the end of 2015.
Note 4 Acquisitions
On October 15, 2012, we completed the acquisition of BrightPoint, a U.S. publicly traded entity and a global leader in providing device lifecycle services to the wireless industry for cash and the assumption of its debt, through the merger of BrightPoint and Beacon Sub, Inc., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ingram Micro, under the Merger Agreement dated June 29, 2012. As a result of the merger, BrightPoint became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ingram Micro and the results of operations of BrightPoint are included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of the merger. For the period from October 16, 2012 to December 29, 2012, BrightPoints net sales and operating income were $1,041,374 and $11,290, respectively.
The consideration paid was $868,192, primarily comprised of $9.00 cash per share of BrightPoints outstanding common stock, restricted stock units and shares issued pursuant to restricted stock awards, net of cash acquired. We also paid BrightPoints outstanding debt of $260,257. We funded the acquisition using the proceeds from our August 2012 offering of senior unsecured notes, revolving senior unsecured credit facility and existing cash. The fair value assigned to the consideration is as follows:
Purchase price: |
||||
Payments to common shareholders |
$ | 573,439 | ||
Payment of outstanding debt |
260,257 | |||
Payments of other acquisition-related consideration |
34,496 | |||
|
|
|||
$ | 868,192 | |||
|
|
The acquired assets and assumed liabilities were recorded by us at their estimated fair values. We determined the estimated fair values with the assistance of appraisals or valuations performed by independent third party specialists, which incorporated discounted cash flow analyses, quoted market prices where available,
58
INGRAM MICRO INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
and estimates made by management. We expect to realize operational benefits by leveraging existing channel relationships and utilize the assembled workforce. We also expect the combined entity to achieve significant savings in corporate and operational overhead costs. We anticipate opportunities for growth through our entry into the global wireless industry, expansion of our geographic reach and customer segment diversity, and the ability to leverage additional products and capabilities. These factors, among others, contributed to a purchase price in excess of the estimated fair value of BrightPoints net identifiable assets acquired, and, as a result, we have recorded goodwill in connection with this transaction.
Goodwill acquired was allocated to our BrightPoint operating segment as a part of the purchase price allocation. We do not expect the goodwill recognized to be deductible for income tax purposes. Any impairment charges made in the future associated with goodwill will not be tax deductible.
A portion of the overall purchase price was allocated to acquired intangible assets. Amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets is not deductible for tax purposes. Therefore, approximately $84,424 was established as a deferred tax liability for the future amortization of these intangibles.
The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the closing date of October 15, 2012:
Tangible assets (includes trade accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and other assets) |
$ | 1,156,075 | ||
Goodwill |

Liabilities (includes accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities) |
(1,015,778 | ) | ||
|
|
|||
$ | 868,192 | |||
|
|
The fair value of trade accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities generally approximated historical carrying values given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The fair values of acquired property and equipment, intangible assets and other long-term assets were determined with the assistance of independent valuation specialists. The values of deferred tax assets and the liabilities were based on the expected realizable value or expected amount due.
Valuations of intangible assets acquired
The components of intangible assets acquired in connection with the BrightPoint acquisition were as follows:
Fair Value | Estimated Useful Life |
|||||||
Logistics customer relationships |
$ | 237,000 | 10 years | |||||
Distribution customer relationships |
59,000 | 7 years | ||||||
Trade name |
13,000 | 3 years | ||||||
|
|
|||||||
Total intangible assets |

Acquisition and integration costs directly related to the BrightPoint merger totaled $11,898 for the year ended December 29, 2012. These costs were recorded in SG&A expenses. In addition, reorganization charges primarily related to employee termination benefits amounted to $968 for the same period (see Note 3).

The above unaudited pro forma results have been prepared for informational purposes only and do not purport to represent what the results of operations would have been had the acquisition occurred as of those dates, nor of future results of operations.
On August 13, 2012, we announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire certain IT distribution businesses of Aptec, a Dubai-based value-added distributor in the Middle East and Africa, with products and solutions covering data center, storage, security, networking and software categories, including technical services. We acquired Aptec, excluding its Saudi Arabia business, in the fourth quarter of 2012 for a cash price of approximately $16,302. The acquisition of the Saudi Arabia business is expected to close within the first half of 2013. This acquisition broadens our reach into the Middle East and Africa, while also building our portfolio of higher margin value-added distribution business. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction dates, resulting in the recording of goodwill of $4,951 and identifiable intangible assets of $1,834, primarily related to vendor and customer relationships and trademarks with estimated useful lives of 10 and 3 years, respectively. Amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets is not deductible for tax purposes. No deferred tax liability for the future amortization of these intangibles was recorded due to a zero tax-rate jurisdiction.
On November 30, 2012, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Promark, a value added distributor in the U.S. with a core technology focus on data storage, data management and electronic document imaging products and services. This acquisition further strengthens our position in higher value products and solutions and extends our reach within the public sector in the North American region. We acquired Promark for an initial cash payment of $7,707; payment of its outstanding debt of $4,675; a hold-back amount of $2,250, which will be released upon settlement of certain closing matters, and a maximum potential earn-out of $1,000 to be paid out by the first quarter of 2015 based upon the achievement of certain pre-defined targets. We have recorded an earn-out obligation of $800, which reflects the estimated fair value of the payout to be achieved. The aggregate purchase price of $15,432 has been preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction dates, resulting in the recording of goodwill of $4,555 and identifiable intangible assets of $8,526, primarily related to U.S. General Services Administration IT schedule

and vendor and customer relationships with estimated useful lives of 20 and 10 years, respectively. Amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets is not deductible for tax purposes. Therefore, approximately $3,291 was established as a deferred tax liability for the future amortization of these intangibles.
In 2011, we acquired the assets and liabilities of Aretê Sistemas S.A. (Aretê) in Spain, which further strengthened our capabilities in value-added distribution in our European region. Our agreement with Aretê called for an initial cash payment of $1,066, a hold-back amount of $1,040, which was released during the second quarter of 2011 upon settlement of certain closing matters, and a maximum potential earn-out of $5,000 to be paid out over four years through December 31, 2014 based upon the achievement of certain pre-defined targets. We recorded an earn-out obligation of $2,062, which reflected the estimated fair value of the payout to be achieved. The aggregate purchase price of $4,168 has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction dates, including identifiable intangible assets of $4,142, primarily related to vendor and customer relationships with estimated useful lives of 10 years.
In 2010, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of interAct BVBA and Albora Soluciones SL in our European region and the assets and liabilities of Asiasoft Hong Kong Limited in our Asia-Pacific region. These acquisitions further strengthened our capabilities in virtualization, security and middleware solutions and enterprise computing. These entities were acquired for an aggregate cash price of $8,329, which was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction dates, including identifiable intangible assets of $6,044, primarily related to vendor and customer relationships with estimated useful lives of 10 years and deferred tax liabilities of $1,840 related to the intangible assets, none of which are deductible for income tax purposes.
All acquisitions for the periods presented above, with the exception of BrightPoint were not material, individually or in aggregate, to us as a whole and therefore, pro forma financial information has not been presented.

In August 2012, we issued through a public offering $300,000 of 5.00% senior unsecured notes due 2022, resulting in cash proceeds of approximately $296,256, net of discount and issuance costs of $1,794 and $1,950, respectively. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on February 10 and August 10, commencing February 10, 2013. At December 29, 2012, our senior unsecured notes due 2022 have a carrying value of $298,275, net of unamortized discount of $1,725. We also have $300,000 of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year. These notes may be redeemed by us in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at redemption prices that are designated in the terms and conditions of the respective notes.
We have a revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in North America which provides for up to $675,000 in borrowing capacity. In November 2012, we entered into an agreement to increase the borrowing capacity of this program to $675,000 from the previous amount of $500,000, and to extend its maturity to November 2015. This financing program, subject to the financial institutions approval and availability of eligible receivables, may be increased to $900,000 in accordance with the extended terms of the program. The interest rate of this program is dependent on designated commercial paper rates (or, in certain circumstances, an alternate rate) plus a predetermined margin. We had borrowings of $345,000 and $0 at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, under this North American financing program.
We have a revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in Europe that matures in January 2014 and provides for a borrowing capacity of up to 100,000, or approximately $132,000 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. The current program requires certain commitment fees, and borrowings under this program incur financing costs based on EURIBOR plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under this European financing program.
We have two other revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs in Europe, which mature in May 2013, and respectively provide for a maximum borrowing capacity of £60,000, or approximately $97,000, and 90,000, or approximately $119,000, at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. These programs require certain commitment fees, and borrowings under the programs incur financing costs, based on LIBOR and EURIBOR, respectively, plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 under these European financing programs.

(In 000s, except per share data)
We have a multi-currency revolving trade accounts receivable-backed financing program in Asia-Pacific that matures in May 2014 and provides for a borrowing capacity of up to 160,000 Australian dollars, or approximately $166,000 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates. The interest rate for this financing program is dependent upon the currency in which the drawing is made and is related to the local short-term bank indicator rate for such currency plus a predetermined margin. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, under this Asia-Pacific financing program.
Our ability to access financing under all our trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, as discussed above, is dependent upon the level of eligible trade accounts receivable as well as continued covenant compliance. We may lose access to all or part of our financing under these programs under certain circumstances, including: (a) a reduction in sales volumes leading to related lower levels of eligible trade accounts receivable; (b) failure to meet certain defined eligibility criteria for the trade accounts receivable, such as receivables remaining assignable and free of liens and dispute or set-off rights; (c) performance of our trade accounts receivable; and/or (d) loss of credit insurance coverage for our European and Asia-Pacific facilities. At December 29, 2012, our actual aggregate capacity under these programs was approximately $1,124,000 based on eligible trade accounts receivable available, of which $345,000 of such capacity was used. Even if we do not borrow, or choose not to borrow to the full available capacity of certain programs, most of our trade accounts receivable-backed financing programs prohibit us from assigning, transferring or pledging the underlying eligible receivables as collateral for other financing programs. At December 29, 2012, the amount of trade accounts receivable which would be restricted in this regard totaled approximately $1,529,000.
We have a $940,000 revolving senior unsecured credit facility from a syndicate of multinational banks, which matures in September 2016. In November 2012, we entered into a lender joinder agreement with an additional syndicate of multinational banks, which increased our revolving senior unsecured credit facility to $940,000 from the previous amount of $750,000. The interest rate on this facility is based on LIBOR, plus a predetermined margin that is based on our debt ratings and leverage ratio. We had no borrowings at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, under this credit facility. This credit facility may also be used to issue letters of credit. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, letters of credit of $4,491 and $4,700, were issued to certain vendors and financial institutions to support purchases by our subsidiaries, payment of insurance premiums and flooring arrangements. Our available capacity under the agreement is reduced by the amount of any outstanding letters of credit.
We also have additional lines of credit, short-term overdraft facilities and other credit facilities with various financial institutions worldwide, which provide for borrowing capacity aggregating approximately $804,000 at December 29, 2012. Most of these arrangements are on an uncommitted basis and are reviewed periodically for renewal. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, we had $111,268 and $92,428 outstanding under these facilities. The weighted average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under these facilities, which may fluctuate depending on geographic mix, was 7.9% and 8.1% per annum at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, letters of credit totaling $30,829 and $31,405, respectively, were issued to various customs agencies and landlords to support our subsidiaries. The issuance of these letters of credit reduces our available capacity under these agreements by the same amount.
We are required to comply with certain financial covenants under the terms of certain of our financing facilities, including restrictions on funded debt and liens and covenants related to tangible net worth, leverage and interest coverage ratios and trade accounts receivable portfolio performance including metrics related to
63

receivables and payables. We are also restricted by other covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the amount of additional indebtedness we can incur, dividends we can pay, and the amount of common stock that we can repurchase annually. At December 29, 2012, we were in compliance with all material covenants or other material requirements set forth in our trade accounts receivable-backed programs, senior unsecured notes due 2017 and 2022, revolving senior unsecured credit facility and other credit agreements, as discussed above.
Note 7 Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The estimates and assumptions we use in computing the income taxes reflected in our consolidated financial statements could differ from the actual results reflected in our income tax returns filed during the subsequent year. We record adjustments based on filed returns as such returns are finalized and resultant adjustments are identified.

Out of the amounts shown above, net current deferred tax assets of $106,986 and $61,484 are included in other current assets at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Net non-current deferred tax liabilities of $51,011 as of December 29, 2012 is included in other liabilities and net non-current deferred tax assets of $116,388 as of December 31, 2011 is included in other assets. As part of purchase accounting for BrightPoint, we recorded $84,424 of non-current deferred tax liabilities attributable to the identifiable intangible assets.
We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including the nature of the deferred tax assets and related statutory limits on utilization, recent operating results, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of or less than the net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce or increase the provision for income taxes.
After multiple years of profitability, our operational performance in Australia has weakened over the last two years, generating operating losses of $43,116 and $55,610 in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Although net operating losses in Australia can be carried forward indefinitely, and despite continuing to execute against our performance improvement plan and making progress in regaining market share with several strategic vendors, such progress has been slower than originally planned. As we finished the fourth quarter of 2012, we are now forecasting a third consecutive year of pre-tax losses in 2013. While the 2013 forecasted loss is significantly lower than 2011 and 2012, we are required to periodically reevaluate all available positive and negative evidence and at December 29, 2012, we ultimately concluded it was no longer more likely than not the deferred tax assets would be realized. As such, we established a full reserve for all Australian deferred tax assets recorded to date, which resulted in a non-cash charge of $41,845 that impacted the fourth quarter and full year effective tax rate. We will continue to work on improving the performance of our operations in Australia and will monitor for objectively verifiable positive evidence that may alter our conclusion as to the likelihood of realizing such deferred tax assets in future periods.
We also considered new events that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2012, in particular the acquisition of BrightPoint and the impact the combination will have on our ability to utilize our foreign tax credits in the U.S., and concluded that it is now more likely than not that an additional $29,978 of foreign tax credits are realizable, resulting in a partial release of the valuation allowance on those deferred tax assets.
At December 29, 2012, we had deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards of $223,790, along with a valuation allowance of $182,510, with the net amount reflecting the amount more likely than not to be realized. Acquisition of BrightPoint entities increased the net operating loss carryforwards and valuation allowance by $52,068 and $25,670, respectively. Of the remaining $41,280 of net deferred tax assets associated with NOL carryforwards, $12,249 has no expiration date. Further, a portion of the carryforwards may expire before being applied to reduce future income tax liabilities. We monitor all of our other deferred tax assets for realizability in a similar manner to those described above and will record or release valuation allowances as required to reflect the amount more likely than not to be realized.
At December 29, 2012, our total deferred tax assets related to foreign tax credit carryforwards in the U.S. was $92,401 and our total valuation allowance related to such credit carryforwards was $41,168, with the net amount reflecting the amount more likely than not to be realized based on our current ability to generate the character of income required to utilize these credits prior to expiry through 2021.

(In 000s, except per share data)
The valuation allowance increased by a net $55,074 during 2012, driven largely by net of the Australia charge and U.S. foreign tax credit release described above, plus $49,441 of valuation allowances associated with some of the acquired BrightPoint deferred tax assets, as well as smaller changes in other jurisdictions.
We have not provided deferred taxes on undistributed earnings from certain of our foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested. These undistributed earnings may become taxable upon an actual or deemed repatriation of assets from the subsidiaries or a sale or liquidation of the subsidiaries. We estimate that our total net undistributed earnings upon which we have not provided deferred tax total approximately $2,100,000 at December 29, 2012, and $1,900,000 at December 31, 2011. A determination of the deferred tax liability on such earnings is not practicable as such liability is dependent upon our U.S. foreign tax credit position that would exist at the time any remittance would occur.
In order to advance the operational and legal entity integration of BrightPoint, we concluded that it would be beneficial to transfer the ownership of BrightPoints non-U.S. subsidiaries into one of our existing foreign subsidiaries, leaving the former BrightPoint foreign subsidiary that held those entities with approximately $272,000 of undistributed earnings. As it is our intention to distribute those previously undistributed earnings in the future, we have recorded a deferred tax liability of $61,560, representing an estimate of the future U.S. taxes that will be due when such earnings are distributed.
Tax benefits claimed from the exercise of employee stock options and other employee stock programs that are in excess of (less than) the amount recorded upon grant are recorded as an increase (decrease) in stockholders equity. In 2012 and 2011, these amounts totaled $5,810 and $3,625, respectively.
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is $38,790 as of December 29, 2012, substantially all of which would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the total amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

The largest driver of the year-over-year increase in gross unrecognized tax benefits was associated with BrightPoint which totaled $16,740. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of December 29, 2012, the total accrual for interest and penalties on our unrecognized tax benefits is $7,889.
We conduct business globally and, as a result, we and/or one or more of our subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions and in over thirty foreign jurisdictions.

operate. In the U.S., we concluded our IRS federal income tax audit for tax years 2007 to 2009 during the second quarter of 2012, effectively closing all years to IRS audit up through 2007. As the statute of limitations has been extended for the periods 2008 to 2009, it is possible that the IRS may reopen audits for these periods. Based on the conclusion of the IRS audit, we reversed tax liabilities of $1,449 including interest, for previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits ultimately realized. In our material tax jurisdictions, the statute of limitation is open, in general, for 3 - 5 years.
It is possible that within the next twelve months, ongoing tax examinations in the U.S. states and several of our foreign jurisdictions may be resolved, that new tax exams may commence and that other issues may be effectively settled. However, we do not expect our assessment of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over that time.

(1) | Notional amounts represent the gross amount of foreign currency bought or sold at maturity for foreign exchange contracts and the underlying principal amount in interest rate swap contract. |
The amount recognized in earnings on our derivative instruments, including ineffectiveness, was a net gain (loss) of $(35,181), $1,799 and $6,874 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which was largely offset by the change in the fair value of the underlying hedged assets or liabilities. The gains or losses on derivative instruments are classified in our consolidated statement of income on a consistent basis with the classification of the change in fair value of the underlying hedged assets or liabilities. The unrealized gains (losses) associated with our cash flow hedging transactions, were reflected in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income for 2012, 2011 and 2010.
Cash Flow Hedges
Our designated hedges have typically consisted of an interest rate swap to hedge variable interest rates on a portion of our senior unsecured term loan, which we terminated upon repaying the underlying loan in September 2011 (see Note 6), and foreign currency forward contracts to hedge certain foreign currency-denominated intercompany loans and anticipated management fees. There were no such designated hedges outstanding as of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We also use foreign currency forward contracts that are not designated as hedges primarily to manage currency risk associated with foreign currency-denominated trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and intercompany loans.

Note 9 Fair Value Measurements
Our assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and Level 3 unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
At December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis included cash equivalents, consisting primarily of money market accounts and short-term certificates of deposit, of $189,381 and $399,420, respectively, and marketable trading securities (included in other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet) of $46,938 and $44,498, respectively, determined based on Level 1 criteria, as defined above, and derivative assets of $2,897 and $10,689, respectively, and derivative liabilities of $3,776 and $3,976, respectively, determined based on Level 2 criteria. The change in the fair value of derivative instruments was a net unrealized gain (loss) of $(7,592), $31,886 and $1,861 for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which was essentially offset by the change in fair value of the underlying hedged assets or liabilities. The fair value of the cash equivalents approximated cost and the gain or loss on the marketable trading securities was recognized in the consolidated statement of income to reflect these investments at fair value.
Note 10 Commitments and Contingencies
Our Brazilian subsidiary has received a number of tax assessments including: (1) a 2005 Federal import tax assessment claiming certain commercial taxes totaling Brazilian Reais 12,714 ($6,232 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) were due on the import of software acquired from international vendors for the period January through September of 2002; (2) a 2007 Sao Paulo Municipal tax assessment claiming Brazilian Reais 29,111 ($14,270 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) of service taxes were due on the resale of acquired software covering years 2002 through 2006, plus Brazilian Reais 25,972 ($12,731 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) of associated penalties; and (3) a 2011 Federal income tax assessment, a portion of which claims statutory penalties totaling Brazilian Reais 15,900 ($7,794 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for delays in providing certain electronic files during the audit of tax years 2008 and 2009, which was conducted through the course of 2011. After working with our advisor, we believe the matters raised in the various assessments, other than the three assessments noted above, represent a remote risk of loss.
In addition to the amounts assessed, it is possible that we could also be assessed up to Brazilian Reais 27,253 ($13,359 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for penalties and interest on the 2005 assessment and up to Brazilian Reais 120,394 ($59,017 at December 29, 2012 exchange rates) for interest and inflationary adjustments on the 2007 assessment. After working with our advisors on these matters, we believe we have good defenses against each matter and do not believe it is probable that we will suffer a material loss for amounts in the 2007 and the 2011 assessments or any other unassessed amounts noted above. While we will continue to vigorously pursue administrative and, if applicable, judicial action in defending against the 2005 Federal import tax assessment, we continue to maintain a reserve for the full amount assessed at December 29, 2012.
There are various other claims, lawsuits and pending actions against us incidental to our operations. It is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, we can make no assurances that we will ultimately be successful in our defense of any of these matters.
As is customary in the IT distribution industry, we have arrangements with certain finance companies that provide inventory-financing facilities for our customers. In conjunction with certain of these arrangements, we
69
INGRAM MICRO INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In 000s, except per share data)
have agreements with the finance companies that would require us to repurchase certain inventory, which might be repossessed from the customers by the finance companies. Due to various reasons, including among other items, the lack of information regarding the amount of saleable inventory purchased from us still on hand with the customer at any point in time, repurchase obligations relating to inventory cannot be reasonably estimated. Repurchases of inventory by us under these arrangements have been insignificant to date.
We have guarantees to third parties that provide financing to a limited number of our customers. Net sales under these arrangements accounted for less than one percent of our consolidated net sales for 2012, 2011 and 2010. The guarantees require us to reimburse the third party for defaults by these customers up to an aggregate of $11,000. The fair value of these guarantees has been recognized as cost of sales to these customers and is included in other accrued liabilities.
We lease the majority of our facilities and certain equipment under noncancelable operating leases. Rental expense, including obligations related to IT outsourcing services, for the years ended 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $96,669, $93,725 and $89,484, respectively.
Future minimum rental commitments on operating leases that have remaining noncancelable lease terms as well as minimum contractual payments under the IT outsourcing agreements as of December 29, 2012 are as follows:
2013 |

Note 11 Segment Information
We operate predominantly in a single industry segment as a distributor of IT products and supply chain solutions worldwide. Our IT distribution operating segments are based on geographic location, and the measure of segment profit is income from operations. We do not allocate stock-based compensation recognized (see Note 12) to our operating units; therefore, we are reporting this as a separate amount.
Geographic areas in which we operated during 2012 include North America (the United States and Canada), Europe (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom), Asia-Pacific (Australia, the Peoples Republic of China including Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Egypt and South Africa), and Latin America (Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, and our Latin American export operations in Miami). During 2012, we closed our in-country Argentina operations in Latin America.
As discussed in Note 4, our acquisition of BrightPoint in October 2012 expanded our product and service offerings to mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solution worldwide. BrightPoint had operations in the

We have elected to use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The Black-Scholes model incorporates various assumptions including volatility, expected life, and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of our stock options. The expected life of an award is based on historical experience and the terms and conditions of the stock-based awards granted to employees. The fair value of options granted in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was estimated assuming no dividends and using the following weighted average assumptions:

Equity Incentive Plan
In 2011, our shareholders approved the Ingram Micro Inc. 2011 Incentive Plan (the 2011 Plan), which constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Ingram Micro Inc. Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan and a consolidation with the Ingram Micro Inc. 2008 Executive Incentive Plan. The 2011 Plan increased the number of shares that we may issue by 13,500, for the granting of equity-based incentive awards including incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights, among others, to key employees and members of our Board of Directors. Under the 2011 Plan, the existing authorized pool of shares available for grant is a fungible pool, where the authorized share limit is reduced by one share for every share subject to a stock option or stock appreciation right granted and 2.37 shares for every share granted under any award other than an option or stock appreciation right for awards granted after June 8, 2011. We grant time- and/or performance-vested restricted stock and/or restricted stock units, in addition to stock options, to key employees and members of our Board of Directors. Options granted generally vest over a period of up to three years and have expiration dates not longer than 10 years. A portion of the restricted stock and restricted stock units vest over a time period of one to three years. The remainder of the restricted stock and restricted stock units vests upon achievement of certain performance measures over a time period of one to three years. In 2012, 2011 and 2010, the performance measures for restricted stock and restricted stock units for grants to management were based on earnings growth, return on invested capital total shareholder return and profit before tax. As of December 29, 2012, approximately 9,335 shares were available for grant under the 2011 Plan, taking into account granted options, time-vested restricted stock units/awards and performance-vested restricted stock units assuming maximum achievement.
During 2012, 2011 and 2010 previously granted restricted stock units of 2,132, 1,144 and 769, respectively, were converted to Class A Common Stock. Approximately 683, 326 and 246 shares, respectively, were withheld to satisfy the employees minimum statutory obligation for the applicable taxes and cash was remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities. Total payments for the employees tax obligations to the taxing authorities were approximately $13,011, $6,294 and $4,378 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The withheld shares had the effect of share repurchases by us as they reduced and retired the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued as a result of the vesting. Of the restricted stock and/or units that were converted to Class A Common Stock, there were 1,495, 133 and 143 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, based on performance-based grants previously approved by the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors. In 2011, the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors determined that the performance measures for certain performance-based grants were not met, resulting in the cancellation of approximately 772 restricted stock units.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between our closing stock price on December 29, 2012 and the option exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options on December 29, 2012. This amount changes based on the fair market value of our common stock. Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $8,273, $9,999 and $10,496, respectively. Total fair value of stock options vested and expensed was $298, $251 and $1,728 for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of December 29, 2012, substantially all compensation costs related to stock options have been recognized.
Cash received from stock option exercises in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $31,335, $39,465 and $38,439, respectively, and the actual benefit realized for the tax deduction from stock option exercises of the share-based payment awards totaled $2,975, $3,248 and $3,844 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program
In October 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a new three-year, $400,000 share repurchase program, of which $124,095 is remaining for repurchase at December 29, 2012. Under the program, we may repurchase shares in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions. Our repurchases are funded with available borrowing capacity and cash. The timing and amount of specific repurchase transactions will depend upon market conditions, corporate considerations and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We have also issued shares of common stock out of our cumulative balance of treasury shares. Such shares are issued to certain of our associates upon the exercise of their options or vesting of their equity awards under the 2011 Plan (see Note 12).
Our stock repurchase and issuance activity for 2012, 2011 and 2010 are summarized as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Ingram Micro Inc.:
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ingram Micro Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the results of their operations, and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 29, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As described in Managements Report on Internal control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Brightpoint, Inc. from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2012 because they were acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination during 2012. We have also excluded Brightpoint, Inc. from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. The total assets and revenues of
79
this acquisition are 17.1% and 2.7%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 29, 2012.

ITEM 9. | CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE |
There have been no changes in our independent accountants or disagreements with such accountants on accounting principles or practices or financial statement disclosures.
ITEM 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of those disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating and Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
We assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2012. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment using those criteria, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 29, 2012.
We have excluded Brightpoint, Inc. from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2012 because it was acquired by us in a purchase business combination on October 15, 2012. Brightpoint, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ingram Micro Inc. whose total assets and net sales represented
80
$1,960,130 or 17.1%, and $1,041,374 or 2.7%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 29, 2012.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2012 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in this Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended December 29, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We are in the process of upgrading our computer systems used for operations in certain of our subsidiaries. Implementation of these systems has necessitated changes in operating policies and procedures and the related internal controls and their method of application. However, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal year covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. | OTHER INFORMATION |
None.
81
Information regarding executive officers required by Item 401 of Regulation S-K is furnished in a separate disclosure in Part I of this report, under the caption Executive Officers of the Company, because we will not furnish such information in our definitive Proxy Statement prepared in accordance with Schedule 14A.
The Notice and Proxy Statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareowners, to be filed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, certain portions of which are incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K pursuant to General Instruction G(3) of Form 10-K, will provide the remaining information required under Part III (Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14).
