-- Record Sales, Gross Profit, Operating Income, and Earnings Per Share --

-- First-Quarter Earnings Per Share of $5.31; Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share of $5.43 --

Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) today reported first-quarter 2022 sales of $9.07 billion, an increase of 8 percent from sales of $8.39 billion in the first quarter of 2021. First-quarter net income was $365 million, or $5.31 per share on a diluted basis, compared with a net income of $206 million, or $2.72 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income1 was $373 million, or $5.43 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2022, compared with non-GAAP net income of $216 million, or $2.84 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2021.

“Arrow’s unwavering commitment to our customers’ success continues to foster expanding opportunities for our own business in the areas of supply chain as a service, designed and engineered value-enhancing solutions, and secure management of mission-critical software workloads,” said Michael J. Long, chairman, president, and chief executive officer. “At Arrow, we continue to enhance the solutions and services we provide as the markets we serve change at an increasingly rapid pace. Our record results this quarter demonstrate that we remain ahead of the curve, supported by the best team in the industry. We expect component supply to remain well below demand in the coming quarters and through the better part of 2022.”

Global components first-quarter sales of $7.20 billion reflected an increase of 12 percent year over year and non-GAAP sales increased 13 percent year over year. Asia-Pacific components first-quarter sales decreased 8 percent year over year. Americas components first-quarter sales increased 38 percent year over year. Europe components first-quarter sales increased 23 percent year over year and non-GAAP sales in the region increased 31 percent year over year. Global components first-quarter operating income was $499 million, and first-quarter non-GAAP operating income was $506 million.

“The current market environment has enabled the global components business to showcase our experience and industry knowledge that makes us uniquely positioned to help our customers navigate today’s challenges. This includes helping to mitigate production risks and facilitate a continuous stream of products to market,” said Mr. Long.

Global enterprise computing solutions ("ECS") first-quarter sales of $1.88 billion reflected a decrease of 3 percent year over year and non-GAAP sales decreased 1 percent year over year. Europe enterprise computing solutions first-quarter sales increased 5 percent year over year and non-GAAP sales in the region increased 11 percent year over year. Americas enterprise computing solutions first-quarter sales decreased 9 percent year over year. Global enterprise computing solutions first-quarter operating income was $86 million, and first-quarter non-GAAP operating income was $88 million.

“Demand for complex IT solutions continues to grow, and we expect to see significant upside in this area when near-term project postponements and incompletions resulting from supply chain challenges are resolved,” said Mr. Long.

“Our return on invested capital remains favorable, and our leverage ratios are near their lowest levels in ten years,” said Rick Seidlitz, vice president and interim principal financial officer. “Our strong profitability and the effective management of our balance sheet enabled us to deliver on our commitment to return cash to shareholders through the repurchase of approximately $250 million of shares for the fourth consecutive quarter, bringing total cash returned to shareholders over the last 12 months to approximately $1 billion. Our current repurchase authorization stands at approximately $513 million.”

Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking” statements, as the term is defined under the federal securities laws, including but not limited to the statements contained in quotes of Arrow's executives and statements regarding: Arrow’s future financial performance, including its outlook on financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, such as sales, net income per diluted share, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, average tax rate, average diluted shares outstanding, interest expense, average USD-to-Euro exchange rate, impact to sales due to changes in foreign currencies, intangible amortization expense per diluted share, restructuring and integration charges per diluted share, and expectation regarding market demand. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or facts to differ materially from such statements for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: potential adverse effects of the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, including actions taken to contain or mitigate the impact of COVID-19, impacts of the conflict in Ukraine, industry conditions, changes in product supply, pricing and customer demand, the global supply chain disruption, economic conditions, inflationary pressures, competition, other vagaries in the global components and the global enterprise computing solutions markets, changes in relationships with key suppliers, increased profit margin pressure, foreign currency fluctuation, changes in legal and regulatory matters, non-compliance with certain regulations, such as export, antitrust, and anti-corruption laws, foreign tax and other loss contingencies, and the company's ability to generate cash flow. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause the company’s future results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the company's periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. The company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any of the forward-looking statements.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the company also provides certain non-GAAP financial information The company provides non-GAAP sales, gross profit, operating income, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income, noncontrolling interests, net income attributable to shareholders, and net income per share on a diluted basis, which are non-GAAP measures adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as "changes in foreign currencies") by re-translating prior-period results at current period foreign exchange rates, identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, and net gains and losses on investments. Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company’s operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the company’s non-GAAP financial information to GAAP is set forth in the tables below.
