The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The unaudited results of operations for such interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “December 31, 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements”).

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. This ASU requires entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose key terms of the programs and information about the obligations that are outstanding at the end of the reporting period. This disclosure requirement is intended to provide information about an entity’s use of supplier finance programs and their effect on the entity’s working capital, liquidity and cash flows. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the rollforward requirement, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company plans to adopt the standard during the first quarter of 2023, except for the rollforward requirement, which will be adopted during the first quarter of 2024. The standard does not affect the Company's recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the ASU will have on its disclosures.

3. Acquisitions

On December 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Sirius for an aggregate consideration paid, net of cash acquired, of approximately $2.4 billion. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and is subject to change during the measurement period, which is not to exceed 12 months from the close of the acquisition. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there have been no significant adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation from those disclosed in the Company’s December 31, 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements. At this time, the Company is in the process of finalizing the purchase price allocation, which includes finalizing the valuation assumptions for customer relationships, such as customer attrition rate, as well as the allocation of goodwill across the reporting units.

4. Accounts Receivable and Contract Balances

Accounts Receivable

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the time of billing to customers. Accounts receivable presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets represent an unconditional right to consideration, which includes unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables represent revenues that are not currently billable but payment is unconditional and solely subject to the passage of time. These items are expected to be billed and collected in the normal course of business. The balance of the Company’s accounts receivable is classified as current for amounts expected to be collected within 12 months and noncurrent for amounts to be collected beyond 12 months. The following table details the total accounts receivable recognized and the related classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:


		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Accounts receivable, current(1)	Accounts receivable, current(1)	$	4,474.8	$	4,499.4	Accounts receivable, current(1)	$	4,549.4	$	4,499.4

Such transfers are recognized as a sale and the related accounts receivable is derecognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheet upon receipt of the third-party financing company’s payment. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company sold approximately ~~$229~~$445 million and ~~$70~~$104 million of accounts receivable, respectively.

Contract Balances

Contract assets and liabilities represent the difference in the timing of revenue recognition from receipt of cash from customers. Contract assets represent revenue recognized on performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied for which the Company has no unconditional right to consideration. Contract liabilities consist of payments received from customers, or such consideration that is contractually due, in advance of providing the product or performing services. The following table details information about the Company’s contract balances recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:


		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Contract assets(1)	Contract assets(1)	$	272.9	$	134.7	Contract assets(1)	$	274.2	$	134.7

A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The following table represents the total transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, related to non-cancelable contracts longer than 12 months in duration that is expected to be recognized over future periods.

5. Inventory Financing Agreements

The Company has entered into agreements with certain financial intermediaries to facilitate the purchase of inventory from various suppliers under certain terms and conditions, as described below. These amounts are classified separately as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not incur any interest expense associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due.

Amounts included in Accounts payable-inventory financing are as follows:


		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021

6. Financial Instruments

The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company’s indebtedness creates interest rate risk on its variable-rate debt. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. For additional information, see Note 7 (Debt).

The Company has interest rate cap agreements that entitle it to payments from the counterparty of the amount, if any, by which the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) exceeds the strike rates of the caps during the agreement period in exchange for an upfront premium. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company did not enter into new interest rate cap agreements.

~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)~~

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had interest rate cap agreements with a fair value of $2$3 million and less than $1 million, respectively, which were classified within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total notional amount of the interest rate cap agreements was $1.3 billion as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which mature on December 31, 2022.

The fair values of the Company’s interest rate cap agreements are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of the interest rate cap agreements is derived by using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rates of the caps. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the interest rate cap agreements, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including LIBOR curves and implied volatilities. The Company also incorporates insignificant credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. The counterparty credit spreads are based on publicly available credit information obtained from a third-party credit data provider.

~~The~~Since inception, the total notional amount of $1.3 billion in interest rate cap agreements ~~are~~were designated as cash flow hedges. As a result of the prepayment on the senior unsecured term loan facility, the Company dedesignated a notional amount of $350 million, which did not result in a material impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. For additional information on the prepayment, see Note 7 (Debt). The changes in the fair value of derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) and are subsequently reclassified into Interest expense in the period when the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The following table provides the activity in AOCL, net of tax, for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021.


		Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,					Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2022		2021		2022		2021			2022		2021		2022		2021

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company is in compliance with the covenants under its credit agreements and indentures.

Credit Facility

The Company has a variable rate senior unsecured revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) from which it may draw tranches denominated in US dollars, British pounds or Euros. The interest rate is based on LIBOR plus a margin or an alternate base rate plus a margin, where the margin is based on the Company’s senior unsecured rating. The Revolving Loan Facility is used by the Company for borrowings, issuances of letters of credit and floorplan financing. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company could have borrowed up to an additional $1.1 billion under the Revolving Loan Facility. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Revolving Loan Facility had less than $1 million of undrawn letters of credit and ~~$348~~$429 million reserved for the floorplan sub-facility.

Term Loan

The senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) has a variable interest rate, which has effectively been capped through the use of interest rate caps. The interest rate is based on LIBOR plus a margin, where the margin is determined by the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating. During the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, the Company prepaid ~~its 2022 quarterly principal installments for~~$400 million on the Term Loan Facility without penalty. In total, the Company paid $436 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As a ~~total~~result of ~~$36 million. The Company is~~the prepayment, no additional mandatory payments are required ~~to pay quarterly principal installments of $18 million in 2023 and thereafter, with~~on the remaining principal amount ~~due at the~~until its maturity date.

Unsecured Senior Notes

The unsecured senior notes have a fixed interest rate, which is paid semi-annually.

Receivable Financing

As a result of the Sirius acquisition, the Company assumed liabilities related to receivable financing. Such amounts relate to certain accounts receivable transferred to third-party financial companies that did not qualify as a sale under the terms of the agreements. The proceeds from these arrangements are recognized as a liability and the associated accounts receivable remains on the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the liability is settled. The Company did not execute any transfers under these agreements during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Fair Value

The fair values of the unsecured senior notes were estimated using quoted market prices for identical liabilities that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets. The fair value of the Term Loan Facility was estimated using dealer quotes for identical liabilities in markets that are not considered active. The unsecured senior notes and Term Loan Facility were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Revolving Loan Facility approximates fair value.

The approximate fair values and related carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities and excluding unamortized discount and unamortized deferred financing costs, were as follows:


		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Fair value	Fair value	$	6,053.4	$	6,996.0	Fair value	$	5,494.7	$	6,996.0
Carrying value	Carrying value	6,628.8		6,904.5		Carrying value	6,197.6		6,904.5

8. Income Taxes

Income tax expense was ~~$98~~$101 million and ~~$97~~$84 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was ~~26.0%~~25.4% and ~~26.2%~~23.9% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income tax expense was ~~$178~~$279 million and ~~$153~~$237 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 25.2% and ~~23.2%~~23.5% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The effective tax rate for both the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 differed from the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes, partially offset by excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 differed from the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes, partially offset by excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 differed from the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes and a discrete deferred tax expense as a result of an increase in the UK corporate tax rate effective in 2023, partially offset by excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation.

9. Earnings Per Share

The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share is Net income. The denominator for basic earnings per share is the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period.

A reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding is as follows:


		Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,			Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2022	2021	2022	2021		2022	2021	2022	2021
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	135.2	139.8	135.1	140.6	Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	135.3	137.3	135.1	139.5
Effect of dilutive securities(1)	Effect of dilutive securities(1)	1.6	1.9	1.7	1.8	Effect of dilutive securities(1)	1.8	2.1	1.8	1.9
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding(2)	Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding(2)	136.8	141.7	136.8	142.4	Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding(2)	137.1	139.4	136.9	141.4

(1)The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and Coworker Stock Purchase Plan units is reflected in the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.

(2)There were ~~fewer than 0.2~~0.1 million potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for both the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and ~~2021 as their inclusion~~fewer than 0.1 million potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Inclusion of these common shares in diluted weighted average shares outstanding would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is party to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business, which include commercial, intellectual property, employment, tort and other litigation matters. The Company is also subject to audit by federal, state, international, national, provincial and local authorities, and by various partners, group purchasing organizations and customers, including government agencies, relating to purchases and sales under various contracts. In addition, the Company is subject to indemnification claims under various contracts. From time to time, certain customers of the Company file voluntary petitions for reorganization or liquidation under the US bankruptcy laws or similar laws of the jurisdictions for the Company’s business activities outside of the US. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company could be considered preference items and subject to return to the bankruptcy administrator.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company does not believe that there is a reasonable possibility that any material loss exceeding the amounts already recognized for these proceedings and matters, if any, has been incurred. However, the ultimate resolutions of these proceedings and matters are inherently unpredictable. As such, the Company’s consolidated financial statements could be adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these proceedings or matters.

A subsidiary of the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) dated September 20, 2021 from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in connection with a False Claims Act investigation. The DOJ ~~has~~ requested information related to teaming agreements with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”)~~. The~~ and the Company is cooperating with the ~~request and, given the early~~DOJ. At this stage of the matter, the Company is ~~currently~~ unable to assess the probability of any outcome or the range of possible loss, if any.

11. Segment Information

The Company’s segment information reflects the way the chief operating decision maker uses internal reporting to evaluate business performance, allocate resources and manage operations.

The Company has 3three reportable segments: Corporate, which is comprised primarily of US private sector business customers with more than 250 employees, Small Business, which primarily serves US private sector business customers with up to 250 employees, and Public, which is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. The Company has 2two other operating segments: CDW UK and CDW Canada, both of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”).

The Company has centralized logistics and headquarters functions that provide services to the segments. The logistics function includes purchasing, distribution and fulfillment services to support the Corporate, Small Business and Public segments. As a result, costs and intercompany charges associated with the logistics function are fully allocated to all of these segments based on a percent of Net sales. The centralized headquarters function provides services in areas such as accounting, information technology, marketing, legal and coworker services. Headquarters function costs that are not allocated to the segments are included under the heading of “Headquarters” in the tables below.

Information about the Company’s segments is as follows:

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

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “we,” “us,” “the Company,” “our,” “CDW” and similar terms refer to CDW Corporation and its subsidiaries. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion.

Overview

CDW Corporation, a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500 Index, is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to small, medium and large business, government, education and healthcare customers in the US, the UK and Canada. Our broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience and security.

We are vendor, technology and consumption model “agnostic”, with a solutions portfolio including more than 100,000 products and services from more than 1,000 leading and emerging brands. Our solutions are delivered in physical, virtual and cloud-based environments through approximately 10,000 customer-facing coworkers, including sellers, highly-skilled technology specialists and advanced service delivery engineers. We are a leading sales channel partner for many original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers and cloud providers (collectively, our “vendor partners”), whose products we sell or include in the solutions we offer. We provide our vendor partners with a cost-effective way to reach customers and deliver a consistent brand experience through our established end-market coverage, technical expertise and extensive customer access.

On December 1, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Sirius Computer Solutions, Inc. (“Sirius”). The aggregate consideration paid, net of cash acquired, at the closing of the acquisition was approximately $2.4 billion. Sirius is a leading provider of secure, mission-critical technology-based solutions and is one of the largest IT solutions integrators in the United States, leveraging its services-led approach, broad portfolio of hybrid infrastructure solutions, and deep technical expertise of its 2,600 coworkers to support corporate and public customers. This strategic acquisition enhances our breadth and depth of services and solutions offerings.

We have three reportable segments, Corporate, Small Business and Public. Our Corporate segment primarily serves US private sector business customers with more than 250 employees. Our Small Business segment primarily serves US private sector business customers with up to 250 employees. Our Public segment is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. We also have two other operating segments: CDW UK and CDW Canada, each of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”). The financial results of Sirius have been included in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on the acquisition date. These amounts are presented within the Corporate, Small Business and Public reportable segments.

We may sell all or only select products that our vendor partners offer. Each vendor partner agreement provides for specific terms and conditions, which may include one or more of the following: product return privileges, price protection policies, purchase discounts and vendor incentive programs, such as purchase or sales rebates and cooperative advertising reimbursements. We also resell software for major software publishers. Our agreements with software publishers allow the end-user customer to acquire software or licensed products and services. In addition to helping our customers determine the best software solutions for their needs, we help them manage their software agreements, including warranties and renewals. A significant portion of our advertising and marketing expenses are reimbursed through cooperative advertising programs with our vendor partners. These programs are at the discretion of our vendor partners and are typically tied to sales or other commitments to be met by us within a specified period of time.

Trends and Key Factors Affecting our Financial Performance

We believe the following key factors may have a meaningful impact on our business performance, influencing our ability to generate sales and achieve our targeted financial and operating results:

•General economic conditions are a key factor affecting our results as they can impact our customers’ willingness to spend on information technology. Macroeconomic uncertainty persists as a result of the continued ~~increase in~~rate of inflation and the corresponding increase in interest rates driven by monetary policy. Additionally, social and geopolitical factors such as resurgences of COVID-19, changes in government administration and laws and the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine have resulted in business volatility and disruption, including supply constraints reflected in component availability and labor and logistical disruptions. The enhanced uncertainty in the current environment may result in a delay or pause on investments in technology by our customers.

•Customers’ top priorities continue to be digital transformation, security, hybrid and cloud solutions and end point solutions as hybrid environments become the ~~future~~accepted work model and drive demand for ~~return to office~~remote collaboration and ~~remote enablement~~work-and-learn-from-anywhere capabilities. We have orchestrated solutions by leveraging client devices, accessories, collaboration tools, security, software and hybrid and cloud offerings to help customers build these capabilities and achieve their objectives.

•Changes in spending policies, budget priorities and funding levels, including current and future stimulus packages, are key factors influencing the purchasing levels of Government, Healthcare and Education customers. As the duration and ongoing economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic remain uncertain, current and future budget priorities and funding levels for Government, Healthcare and Education customers may be adversely affected.

•Technology trends drive customer purchasing behaviors in the market. Current technology trends are focused on delivering greater flexibility and efficiency, as well as designing IT securely. These trends are driving customer adoption of solutions such as those delivered via cloud, software defined architectures and hybrid on-premise and off-premise combinations, as well as the evolution of the IT consumption model to more “as a service” offerings, ~~such~~including software as a service and infrastructure as a service, in addition to ongoing managed ~~services.~~and professional service arrangements. Technology trends ~~could also~~are likely to change as customers ~~consider~~prioritize the ~~impact of~~projects that produce the ~~COVID-19 pandemic on~~most important outcomes for their operations.

Key Business Metrics

We monitor a number of financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis in order to track the progress of our business and make adjustments as necessary. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include average daily sales, gross margin, operating margin, Net income, Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income, Net sales growth on a constant currency basis, Net income per diluted share, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, free cash flow, return on working capital, Cash and cash equivalents, net working capital, cash conversion cycle and debt levels including available credit. These measures and ratios are closely monitored by management, so that actions can be taken, as necessary, in order to achieve financial objectives.

In this section, we discuss Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income and Net sales growth on a constant currency basis, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe these measures provide analysts, investors and management with helpful information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. Management uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation. For the definitions of Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income and Net sales growth on a constant currency basis and reconciliations to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure, see “Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations.”

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses increased ~~$220~~$238 million, or ~~42.9%~~45.1%, to ~~$733~~$767 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, compared to ~~$513~~$529 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher payroll consistent with higher Gross profit and higher coworker count, including the impact of the acquisition of Sirius, as well as higher intangible asset amortization and integration expenses from the acquisition of Sirius.

Operating income

Operating income was ~~$435~~$466 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, an increase of ~~$65~~$80 million, or ~~17.7%~~20.7%, compared to ~~$370~~$386 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

Non-GAAP operating income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and the associated payroll taxes, and acquisition and integration expenses. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of Net sales. Non-GAAP income before income taxes and Non-GAAP net income exclude, among other things, charges related to acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, and the associated tax effects of each. Net sales growth on a constant currency basis is defined as Net sales growth excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on Net sales compared to the prior period.

Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income and Net sales growth on a constant currency basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial condition that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by management may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.

Net sales

Total Net sales for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 increased ~~$2,111~~$3,027 million, or ~~21.1%~~19.8%, to ~~$12,095~~$18,310 million compared to the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The Net sales growth was driven by all operating segments. For additional information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.

Gross profit

Gross profit increased ~~$594~~$913 million, or ~~35.4%~~35.2%, to ~~$2,272~~$3,506 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, compared to ~~$1,678~~$2,593 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. As a percentage of Net sales, Gross profit margin increased ~~200~~210 basis points to ~~18.8%~~19.1% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The increase in Gross profit margin was primarily driven

Table of Contents

by more favorable product mix and rate and higher mix of netted down revenue, ~~primarily within software as a service,~~ as well as increased Net sales and margins on professional services as a result of the recent business acquisitions.

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses increased ~~$465~~$704 million, or ~~47.3%~~46.5%, to ~~$1,450~~$2,217 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, compared to ~~$985~~$1,513 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher payroll consistent with higher Gross profit and higher coworker count, including the impact of the acquisition of Sirius, as well as higher intangible asset amortization and integration expenses from the acquisition of Sirius.

Operating income

Operating income was ~~$822~~$1,289 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, an increase of ~~$129~~$209 million, or ~~18.6%~~19.3%, compared to ~~$693~~$1,080 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. Operating income increased primarily due to higher Gross profit dollars, partially offset by higher payroll and higher intangible asset amortization and integration expenses from the acquisition of Sirius.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net, for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~$114~~$176 million, an increase of ~~$43~~$69 million compared to ~~$71~~$108 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. This increase was primarily driven by additional interest expense from the $2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes issued on December 1, 2021, the net proceeds of which were used to fund the acquisition of Sirius.

~~Table of Contents~~

Income tax expense

Income tax ~~expense w~~expe~~as $178~~nse was $279 million and ~~$153~~$237 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 25.2% and ~~23.2%~~23.5% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The higher effective tax rate for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to lower excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation and higher non-deductible expenses, partially offset by a prior year discrete deferred tax expense as a result of an increase in the UK corporate tax rate effective in 2023.

Seasonality

While we have not historically experienced significant seasonality throughout the year, sales in our Corporate segment, which primarily serves US private sector business customers with more than 250 employees, ~~are typically~~have historically been higher in the fourth quarter than in other quarters due to customers spending their remaining technology budget dollars at the end of the year. Additionally, sales in our Public segment have historically been higher in the third quarter than in other quarters primarily due to the buying patterns of the federal government and education customers. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced variability compared to historic seasonality trends. ~~As uncertainty due to the pandemic remains, seasonality~~Seasonality by channel is expected to continue to be different than historical experience.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our operations and capital expenditures with cash from operations and borrowings under our revolving loan facility. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had $1.1 billion of availability for borrowings under our revolving loan facility. Our liquidity and borrowing plans are established to align with our financial and strategic planning processes and ensure we have the necessary funding to meet our operating commitments, which primarily include the purchase of inventory, payroll and general expenses. We also take into consideration our overall capital allocation strategy, which includes dividend payments, assessment of debt

~~Table of Contents~~

levels, acquisitions and share repurchases. We believe we have adequate sources of liquidity and funding available for at least the next year; however, there are a number of factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds. The amount of cash generated from operations will be dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business plan, general economic conditions and working capital management.

Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

On September 30, 2022, we prepaid $400 million on the Term Loan Facility without penalty. As a result of the prepayment, no additional mandatory payments are required on the remaining principal amount until its maturity date.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had total unsecured indebtedness of ~~$6.6~~$6.2 billion. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under our credit agreements and indentures.

We may from time to time repurchase one or more series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes, depending on market conditions, contractual commitments, our capital needs and other factors. Repurchases of our senior notes may be made by open market or privately negotiated transactions and may be pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or otherwise.

For additional information regarding our debt and refinancing activities, see Note 7 (Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

Inventory Financing Agreements

We have entered into agreements with certain financial intermediaries to facilitate the purchase of inventory from various suppliers under certain terms and conditions. These amounts are classified separately as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not incur any interest expense associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. For additional information, see Note 5 (Inventory Financing Agreements) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

In order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs, we monitor our cash conversion cycle, defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average. Components of our cash conversion cycle are as follows:


		June 30,			September 30,
(in days)	(in days)	2022	2021	(in days)	2022	2021
Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1)	Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1)	64	56	Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1)	68	61
Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2)	Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2)	18	16	Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2)	18	17

Cash conversion cycle	Cash conversion cycle	19	21	Cash conversion cycle	18	25

(1)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Accounts receivable, net at the end of the period, divided by average daily Net sales for the same three-month period. Also incorporates components of other miscellaneous receivables.

(2)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Merchandise inventory at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.

(3)Represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of Accounts payable-trade, excluding cash overdrafts, and Accounts payable-inventory financing at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.

The cash conversion cycle decreased to 1918 days at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, compared to 2125 days at ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The overall decrease was impacted by the acquisition of Sirius. In addition, netted down revenue has an unfavorable impact to DSO and a favorable impact to DPO as the corresponding receivables and payables reflect the gross amounts due from customers and due to vendors while the corresponding sales and cost of sales are reflected on a net basis. The increase in DIO was primarily due to a higher stocking ~~positions~~position driven by ~~customer~~ demand.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased ~~$123~~$245 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 compared to ~~June~~September 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the ~~acquisition~~acquisitions of Amplified IT LLC and Focal Point Data Risk LLC in 2021, partially offset by increased capital expenditures in 2022 due to increased investment in our information technology systems and proceeds received from the sale of an equity method investment in 2021.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased ~~$668~~$601 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 compared to ~~June~~September 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the absence of share repurchases in 2022 and increased volume through our inventory financing arrangements, partially offset by repayments on our senior unsecured term loan facility and net repayments on our revolving loan facility. For additional information regarding the inventory financing agreements and debt activities, see Note 5 (Inventory Financing Agreements) and Note 7 (Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

Issuers and Guarantors of Debt Securities

Each series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes (the “Notes”) are issued by CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation (the “Issuers”) and are guaranteed by CDW Corporation (“Parent”) and certain of each CDW LLC’s direct and indirect, 100% owned, domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries” and, together with Parent, the “Guarantors”). All guarantees by Parent and the Guarantors are joint and several, and full and unconditional; provided that guarantees by the Guarantor Subsidiaries are subject to certain customary release provisions contained in the indentures governing the Notes.

The Notes and the related guarantees are the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations and are:

•structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries and;

•rank equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ existing and future unsecured senior debt.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. These statements relate to analyses and other information, which are based on forecasts of future results or events and estimates of amounts not yet determinable. These statements also relate to our future prospects, developments and business strategies. We claim the protection of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all forward-looking statements in this report.

These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “target” and similar terms and phrases or future or conditional verbs such as “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” and “would.” However, these words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and other expectations reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that we will achieve those plans, intentions or expectations. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those that we expected.

These factors include, among others, the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and actions taken in response thereto and the associated impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and liquidity; inflationary pressures; level of interest rates; CDW’s relationships with vendor partners and terms of their agreements; continued innovations in hardware, software and services by CDW’s vendor partners; substantial competition that could reduce CDW’s market share; the continuing development, maintenance and operation of CDW’s information technology systems; potential breaches of data security and failure to protect our information technology systems from cybersecurity threats; potential failures to provide high-quality services to CDW’s customers; potential losses of any key personnel, significant increases in labor costs or ineffective workforce management; potential adverse occurrences at one of CDW’s primary facilities or third-party data centers, including as a result of climate change; increases in the cost of commercial delivery services or disruptions of those services; CDW’s exposure to accounts receivable and inventory risks; the potential failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Sirius in the expected timeframe or at all; future acquisitions or alliances; fluctuations in CDW’s operating results; fluctuations in foreign currency; global and regional economic and political conditions, including impacts of the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions against Russia; potential interruptions of the flow of products from suppliers; decreases in spending on technology products and services; potential failures to comply with Public segment contracts or applicable laws and regulations; current and future legal proceedings, investigations and audits, including intellectual property infringement claims; changes in laws, including regulations or interpretations thereof, or the potential failure to meet stakeholder expectations on environmental sustainability and corporate responsibility matters; CDW’s level of indebtedness and ability to generate sufficient cash to service such indebtedness; restrictions imposed by agreements relating to CDW’s indebtedness on its operations and liquidity; changes in, or the discontinuation of, CDW’s share repurchase program or dividend payments; and other risk factors or uncertainties identified from time to time in CDW’s filings with the SEC. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by those cautionary statements as well as other cautionary statements that are made from time to time in our other SEC filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not reflect all of the factors that could cause actual results or events to differ from our expectations. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect.
