Results for the six months ended February 28, 2017 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending August 31, 2017.

2. Earnings Per Share and Dividends

a. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates its basic earnings per share by dividing net income attributable to Jabil Circuit, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted earnings per share is calculated in a similar manner, but includes the effect of dilutive securities. To the extent these securities are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

For the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, 3,130 and 499,243 stock appreciation rights, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, 2,157,753 and 1,823,162 stock appreciation rights, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

b. Dividends

The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company’s cash dividends declared to common stockholders of the Company during the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 (in thousands, except for per share data):

4. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense, reduced for estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period for outstanding stock awards. The Company recorded $15.3 million and $15.0 million of stock-based compensation expense gross of tax effects, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company recorded a $21.0 million reversal to stock-based compensation expense due to decreased expectations for the vesting of certain performance-based restricted stock awards. The Company recorded tax benefits related to the stock-based compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, which is included in income tax expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively. The Company recorded $20.3 million and $45.1 million of stock-based compensation expense gross of tax effects, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. The Company recorded tax benefits related to the stock-based compensation expense of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, which is included in income tax expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

Certain key employees have been granted time-based, performance-based and market-based restricted stock awards. The time-based restricted awards granted generally vest on a graded vesting schedule over three years. The performance-based restricted awards generally vest on a cliff vesting schedule over three to five years and provide a range of vesting possibilities of up to a maximum of 100% or 150%, depending on the specified performance condition and the level of achievement obtained. The market-based restricted awards generally vest on a cliff vesting schedule over three years and provide a range of vesting possibilities of up to a maximum of 200%. The market-based awards have a vesting condition that is tied to the Company’s stock performance in relation to the Standard and Poor’s (S&P) Super Composite Technology Hardware and Equipment Index. The market conditions are considered in the grant date fair value using a Monte Carlo valuation model, which utilizes multiple input variables to determine the probability of the Company achieving the specified market conditions. During the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Company awarded approximately 1.8 million and 2.6 million time-based restricted stock units, respectively, 0.6 million and 1.3 million performance-based restricted stock units, respectively and 0.4 million and 0.4 million market-based stock units, respectively.

At February 28, 2017, there was $76.1 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.

5. Concentration of Risk and Segment Data

a. Concentration of Risk

Sales of the Company’s products are concentrated among specific customers. During the six months ended February 28, 2017, the Company’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 48% of its net revenue and 76 customers accounted for approximately 90% of its net revenue. Sales to these customers were reported in the Electronics Manufacturing Services (“EMS”) and Diversified Manufacturing Services (“DMS”) operating segments.

The Company procures components from a broad group of suppliers. Almost all of the products manufactured by the Company require one or more components that are available from only a single source.

Production levels for a portion of the DMS segment are subject to seasonal influences. The Company may realize greater net revenue during its first fiscal quarter due to higher demand for consumer related products manufactured in the DMS segment during the holiday selling season. Therefore, quarterly results should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.

b. Segment Data

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses; for which separate financial information is available; and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the individual segment and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment.

The Company derives its revenue from providing comprehensive electronics design, production and product management services. The chief operating decision maker evaluates performance and allocates resources on a segment basis. The Company’s operating segments consist of two segments – EMS and DMS, which are also the Company’s reportable segments. The EMS segment is focused around leveraging IT, supply chain design and engineering, technologies largely centered on core electronics, sharing of the Company’s large scale manufacturing infrastructure and the ability to serve a broad range of end markets. The EMS segment includes customers primarily in the automotive and transportation, capital equipment, computing and storage, digital home, industrial and energy, networking and telecommunications, point of sale and printing industries. The DMS segment is focused on providing engineering solutions and a focus on material sciences and technologies. The DMS segment includes customers primarily in the consumer lifestyles and wearable technologies, defense and aerospace, emerging growth, healthcare, mobility and packaging industries.

Net revenue for the operating segments is attributed to the segment in which the service is performed. An operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net revenue less cost of revenue, segment selling, general and administrative expenses, segment research and development expenses and an allocation of corporate manufacturing expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense and related charges, restructuring and related charges, distressed customer charges, acquisition costs and certain purchase accounting adjustments, loss on disposal of subsidiaries, settlement of receivables and related charges, impairment of notes receivable and related charges, goodwill impairment charges, income (loss) from discontinued operations, gain (loss) on sale of discontinued operations, other expense, interest income, interest expense, income tax expense or adjustment for net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. Total segment assets are defined as accounts receivable, inventories, net customer-related property, plant and equipment, intangible assets net of accumulated amortization and goodwill. All other non-segment assets are reviewed on a global basis by management. Transactions between operating segments are generally recorded at amounts that approximate those at which we would transact with third parties.

##### Table of Contents

The $400.0 million of 8.250% senior unsecured notes, $400.0 million of 5.625% senior unsecured notes, $500.0 million of 4.700% senior unsecured notes and $300.0 million of 4.900% senior unsecured notes outstanding are carried at the principal amount of each note, less any unamortized discount and unamortized debt issuance costs. The estimated fair values of the Company’s publicly traded debt, including the 8.250%, 5.625% and 4.700% senior notes, were approximately $425.6 million, $433.4 million and $524.6 million respectively, at February 28, 2017. The fair value estimates are based upon observable market data (Level 2 criteria). The estimated fair value of the Company’s private debt, the 4.900% senior notes, was approximately $307.9 million, at February 28, 2017. This fair value estimate is based on the Company’s indicative borrowing cost derived from discounted cash flows (Level 3 criteria). The carrying amounts of borrowings under credit facilities and under loans approximates fair value as interest rates on these instruments approximates current market rates.

7. Trade Accounts Receivable Securitization and Sale Programs

The Company regularly sells designated pools of trade accounts receivable under two asset-backed securitization programs and four uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs (collectively referred to herein as the “programs”). The Company continues servicing the receivables sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under each of the programs. Servicing fees related to each of the programs recognized during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 were not material. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the Company estimates that the fee it receives to service these receivables approximates the fair market compensation to provide the servicing activities.

Transfers of the receivables under the programs are accounted for as sales and, accordingly, net receivables sold under the programs are excluded from accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

a. Asset-Backed Securitization Programs

The Company continuously sells designated pools of trade accounts receivable, at a discount, under its North American asset-backed securitization program, currently scheduled to expire on October 20, 2017, and its foreign asset-backed securitization program, currently scheduled to expire on May 1, 2018, (collectively referred to herein as the “asset-backed securitization programs”) to special purpose entities, which in turn sell 100% of the receivables to conduits administered by unaffiliated financial institutions (for the North American asset-backed securitization program) and to an unaffiliated financial institution and a conduit administered by an unaffiliated financial institution (for the foreign asset-backed securitization program). The special purpose entity in the North American asset-backed securitization program is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The special purpose entity in the foreign asset-backed securitization program is a separate bankruptcy-remote entity whose assets would be first available to satisfy the creditor claims of the unaffiliated financial institution. The Company is deemed the primary beneficiary of this special purpose entity as the Company has both the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity from the transfer of the trade accounts receivable into the special purpose entity. Accordingly, the special purpose entities associated with these asset-backed securitization programs are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Any portion of the purchase price for the receivables which is not paid in cash upon the sale taking place is recorded as a deferred purchase price receivable, which is paid as payments on the receivables are collected. Net cash proceeds of up to a maximum of $200.0 million and $400.0 million for the North American and foreign asset-backed securitization programs, respectively, are available at any one time. The foreign asset-backed securitization program was amended to increase the facility limit from $275.0 million to $400.0 million, effective February 13, 2017.

In connection with the asset-backed securitization programs, the Company sold $2.2 billion and $4.5 billion of eligible trade accounts receivable during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively. In exchange, the Company received cash proceeds of $1.7 billion and $4.0 billion during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, (which represented proceeds from collections reinvested in revolving-period transfers as there were no new transfers during these periods) and a deferred purchase price receivable. The Company sold $1.9 billion and $3.8 billion of eligible trade accounts receivable during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. In exchange, the Company received cash proceeds of $1.4 billion and $3.4 billion during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively, (of which approximately $3.0 million represented new transfers and the remainder represented proceeds from collections reinvested in revolving-period transfers) and a deferred purchase price receivable. At February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the deferred purchase price receivables recorded in connection with the asset-backed securitization programs totaled approximately $467.2 million and $437.7 million, respectively.

The Company recognized pretax losses on the sales of receivables under the asset-backed securitization programs of approximately $2.3 million and $4.1 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, and approximately $1.2 million and $2.2 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively, which are recorded to other expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

##### Table of Contents

The deferred purchase price receivables recorded under the asset-backed securitization programs are recorded initially at fair value as prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are valued using unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs), primarily discounted cash flows, and due to their credit quality and short-term maturity the fair values approximated book values. The unobservable inputs consist of estimated credit losses and estimated discount rates, which both have an immaterial impact on the fair value calculations of the deferred purchase price receivables.

b. Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs

In connection with four separate trade accounts receivable sale programs with unaffiliated financial institutions, the Company may elect to sell, at a discount, on an ongoing basis, up to a maximum of $650.0 million, $150.0 million, 800.0 million Chinese yuan renminbi (“CNY”) and $100.0 million, respectively, of specific trade accounts receivable at any one time. The $650.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that will expire on August 31, 2017 (as the agreement was automatically extended on October 31, 2016), although any party may elect to terminate the agreement upon 15 days prior notice. The $150.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that will expire on August 31, 2017 unless renewed. The 800.0 million CNY trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that was entered into on February 15, 2017 and is scheduled to expire on February 15, 2018 unless renewed. The $100.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2017 (as the agreement was automatically extended on October 31, 2016), although any party may elect to terminate the agreement upon 15 days prior notice. The $100.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program will be automatically extended until November 1, 2018, unless any party gives no less than 30 days prior notice that the agreement should not be extended.

During the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, the Company sold $0.7 billion and $1.7 billion of trade accounts receivable under these programs, respectively, compared to $0.9 billion and $2.3 billion during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. In exchange, the Company received cash proceeds of $0.7 billion and $1.7 billion during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $0.9 billion and $2.3 billion during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. The resulting losses on the sales of trade accounts receivable were approximately $1.4 million and $2.6 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to approximately $1.0 million and $2.0 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively, and were recorded to other expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

8. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The following table sets forth the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of tax, by component from August 31, 2016 to February 28, 2017 (in thousands):

The portion of AOCI reclassified into earnings during the six months ended February 28, 2017 for foreign currency translation adjustments was not material. The portion of AOCI reclassified into earnings during the six months ended February 28, 2017 for derivative instruments was primarily classified as a component of cost of revenue. The tax benefit (expense) on the derivative instruments component of AOCI, including reclassification adjustments, is not material for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017. There was no tax benefit (expense) on the foreign currency translation adjustment and the unrealized (loss) gain on available for sale securities components of AOCI, including reclassification adjustments, for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017.

9. Postretirement and Other Employee Benefits

The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans in several countries in which it operates. The pension obligations relate primarily to the following: (a) a funded retirement plan in the United Kingdom and (b) both funded and unfunded retirement plans, mainly in Austria, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Poland, and Taiwan, which provide benefits based upon years of service and compensation at retirement.

During the six months ended February 28, 2017, the Company made contributions of approximately $1.5 million to its defined benefit pension plans. The Company expects to make total cash contributions of between $2.6 million and $3.4 million to its funded pension plans during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) completed its field examination of the Company’s tax returns for fiscal years 2009 through 2011 and issued a Revenue Agent’s Report on May 27, 2015, which was updated on June 22, 2016, proposing adjustments primarily related to U.S. taxation of certain intercompany transactions. If the IRS ultimately prevails in its positions, the Company’s income tax payment due for the fiscal years 2009 through 2011 would be approximately $28.6 million after utilization of tax loss carry forwards available through fiscal year 2011. Also, the IRS has proposed interest and penalties with respect to fiscal years 2009 through 2011. The IRS may make similar claims in future audits with respect to these types of transactions. At this time, anticipating the amount of any future IRS proposed adjustments, interest, and penalties is not practicable.

The Company disagrees with the proposed adjustments and intends to vigorously contest these matters through the applicable IRS administrative and judicial procedures, as appropriate. As the final resolution of the proposed adjustments remains uncertain, the Company continues to provide for the uncertain tax positions based on the more likely than not standard. While the resolution of the issues may result in tax liabilities, interest and penalties, which are significantly higher than the amounts accrued for these matters, management currently believes that the resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Despite this belief, an unfavorable resolution, particularly if the IRS successfully asserts similar claims for later years, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

11. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions. These changes in market conditions may adversely impact the Company’s financial performance and are referred to as market risks. The Company, where deemed appropriate, uses derivatives as risk management tools to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. The primary market risks managed by the Company through the use of derivative instruments are foreign currency fluctuation risk and interest rate risk.

All derivative instruments are recorded gross on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on the intended use and designation of the derivative instrument. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative and the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is initially reported as a component of AOCI, net of tax, and is subsequently reclassified into the line item within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in which the hedged items are recorded in the same period in which the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is recognized immediately in current earnings. For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, gains and losses from changes in fair values are recognized in earnings. Cash receipts and cash payments related to derivative instruments are recorded in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

a. Foreign Currency Risk Management

Forward contracts are put in place to manage the foreign currency risk associated with the anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses. A hedging relationship existed with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $207.7 million and $323.3 million at February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016, respectively. The related forward foreign exchange contracts have been designated as hedging instruments and are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The forward foreign exchange contract transactions will effectively lock in the value of anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses against foreign currency fluctuations. The anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses being hedged are expected to occur between March 1, 2017 and November 30, 2017.

In addition to derivatives that are designated as hedging instruments and qualify for hedge accounting, the Company also enters into forward contracts to economically hedge transactional exposure associated with commitments arising from trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, fixed purchase obligations and intercompany transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective operating entity. The aggregate notional amount of these outstanding contracts at February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016, was $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities related to forward foreign exchange contracts measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of February 28, 2017, aggregated by the level in the fair-value hierarchy in which those measurements are classified (in thousands):

As of February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016, the Company also included gains and losses in AOCI related to changes in fair value of its derivatives utilized for foreign currency risk management purposes and designated as hedging instruments. These gains and losses were not material and the portion that is expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months will be classified as components of net revenue, cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expense. The gains and losses recognized in earnings due to hedge ineffectiveness and the amount excluded from effectiveness testing were not material for all periods presented and are included as components of net revenue, cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expense.

b. Interest Rate Risk Management

The Company periodically enters into interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company entered into forward interest rate swap transactions to hedge the fixed interest rate payments for an anticipated debt issuance, which was the issuance of the 8.250% Senior Notes. The swaps were accounted for as a cash flow hedge and had a notional amount of $400.0 million. Concurrently with the pricing of the 8.250% Senior Notes, the Company settled the swaps by its payment of $43.1 million. The ineffective portion of the swaps was immediately recorded to interest expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The effective portion of the swaps is recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI and is being amortized to interest expense within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the life of the 8.250% Senior Notes, which is through March 15, 2018. The effective portions of the swaps amortized to interest expense during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 were not material. Existing losses related to interest rate risk management hedging arrangements that are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months are not material.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company entered into forward starting swap transactions to hedge the fixed interest rate payments for an anticipated debt issuance. The forward starting swaps have an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million and have been designated as hedging instruments and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The forward starting swaps are scheduled to expire on March 15, 2018. If the anticipated debt issuance occurs before March 15, 2018, the contracts will be terminated simultaneously with the debt issuance. The contracts will be settled with the respective counterparties on a net basis at the time of termination or expiration. Changes in the fair value of the forward starting swap transactions are recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions to hedge the variable interest rate payments for the Term Loan Facility.

The interest rate swaps have an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million and have been designated as hedging instruments and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swaps were effective on September 30, 2016 and are scheduled to expire on June 30, 2019. The contracts will be settled with the respective counterparties on a net basis at each settlement date. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap transactions are recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI.

Fiscal year 2016

On November 25, 2015, the Company entered into a master purchase agreement for certain assets and liabilities of various legal entities, collectively referred to as “Hanson”. On January 13, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets for approximately $139.2 million in cash, plus the assumption of certain liabilities of $230.0 million (such liabilities were subsequently paid in February 2016 and classified in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as a component of cash flows from operating activities), with the exception of the real property, which closed on July 7, 2016, for approximately $33.3 million. Hanson is engaged in the business of manufacturing certain parts for customers in the DMS segment.

The acquisition of certain Hanson assets has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired of $406.4 million, including $276.8 million in property, plant and equipment, $129.6 million in goodwill and intangible assets assigned to customer relationships, liabilities assumed of $230.0 million and $3.9 million of deferred tax liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired assets was recorded to goodwill and was fully allocated to the DMS segment. None of the goodwill is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. A customer relationship was valued using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. The results of operations were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial results beginning on January 13, 2016. Pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisition of Hanson is not deemed to be significant.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company completed two additional acquisitions (Inala Technologies Limited and various legal entities collectively referred to as “Shemer Companies”) which were not deemed to be significant individually or in the aggregate. The acquired businesses expanded the Company’s capabilities in capital equipment, networking and telecommunications, and printing. The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions totaled approximately $72.3 million in cash.

These two acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired of $92.2 million, including $19.3 million in goodwill and $31.4 million in intangible assets, and liabilities assumed of $19.9 million were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition dates. The excess of the purchase prices over the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of $19.3 million was recorded to goodwill and was fully allocated to the EMS segment. None of the goodwill is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations of the acquired businesses were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial results beginning on the date of the acquisitions. Pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions are not deemed to be significant individually or in the aggregate.

14. New Accounting Guidance

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard which will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. The new standard is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard deferring the effective date of this accounting guidance by one year. Therefore, the accounting standard is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this standard and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. The Company is currently in the process of assessing what impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, the FASB issued a new accounting standard intended to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory, excluding inventory accounted for under the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory methods. The new standard replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost and net realizable value test. Under the current guidance, market could be replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This guidance is required to be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Early application is permitted only for certain provisions, and the update must be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption and applied prospectively to equity investments that exist as of the date of adoption of the standard. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard revising lease accounting. The new guidance requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and disclose key information regarding leasing arrangements. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. Early application of the new standard is permitted and must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard will impact the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company is currently assessing any other impacts this new standard will have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard, which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 and early adoption is permitted beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. This guidance must be applied using a modified retrospective or prospective transition method, depending on the area covered by this accounting standard. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

##### Table of Contents

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to address the presentation of certain transactions within the statement of cash flows with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. The new standard eliminates the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory and requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences when the transfer occurs. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and early adoption is permitted. This guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and will be applied on a prospective basis. Early application is permitted for certain transactions. The impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements will depend on the facts and circumstances of any specific future transactions.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Goodwill will be considered impaired when the carrying amount of a reporting unit that includes goodwill exceeds its fair value. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, with early application permitted. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

15. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 primarily due to: (a) restructuring costs with minimal related tax benefit; (b) income in tax jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates than the U.S.; (c) tax incentives granted to sites in Brazil, China, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam; and (d) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances. The material tax incentives expire at various dates through fiscal year 2021. Such tax incentives are subject to conditions with which the Company expects to continue to comply.

16. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events that occurred through the date of the filing of the Company’s second quarter of fiscal year 2017 Form 10-Q. No significant events occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date and prior to the filing date of this report that would have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Summary of Results

The following table sets forth, for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, certain key operating results and other financial information (in thousands, except per share data):

|  | Three months ended |  |  | Six months ended |
|  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | February 29, 2016 |  |  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | February 29, 2016 |

Key Performance Indicators

Management regularly reviews financial and non-financial performance indicators to assess the Company’s operating results. The following table sets forth, for the quarterly periods indicated, certain of management’s key financial performance indicators:

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | November 30, 2016 |  |  | August 31, 2016 |  |  | May 31, 2016 |
Sales cycle |  |  | 11 days |  |  |  | 1 day |  |  |  | 3 days |  |  |  | 7 days |
Inventory turns (annualized) |  |  | 7 turns |  |  |  | 7 turns |  |  |  | 7 turns |  |  |  | 7 turns |
Days in accounts receivable |  |  | 29 days |  |  |  | 27 days |  |  |  | 28 days |  |  |  | 27 days |
Days in inventory |  |  | 55 days |  |  |  | 48 days |  |  |  | 54 days |  |  |  | 52 days |
Days in accounts payable |  |  | 73 days |  |  |  | 74 days |  |  |  | 79 days |  |  |  | 72 days |

The sales cycle is calculated as the sum of days in accounts receivable and days in inventory, less the days in accounts payable; accordingly, the variance in the sales cycle quarter over quarter is a direct result of changes in these indicators. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, days in accounts receivable increased 2 days as compared to the prior sequential quarter primarily due to the timing of sales and cash collection efforts during the quarter. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, days in inventory increased 7 days as compared to the prior sequential quarter as a result of lower production in the DMS segment due to reduced consumer demand in the mobility business and to support expected revenue levels in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, days in accounts payable decreased 1 day from the prior sequential quarter primarily due to the timing of purchases and cash payments for purchases during the quarter. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, inventory turns, on an annualized basis, remained consistent with the prior sequential quarter. The changes in the sales cycle during the three months ended February 28, 2017, are due to the changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable and inventory that are discussed above.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances.

The Three Months And Six Months Ended February 28, 2017 Compared to the Three Months And Six Months Ended February 29, 2016

Net Revenue. Net revenue increased 1% to $4.4 billion during the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016. Specifically, the DMS segment revenues increased 1% due to a 5% increase in revenues due to new business from existing customers in our consumer lifestyles and wearable technologies business, a 2% increase in revenues due to new business from existing customers in our healthcare business, partially offset by a 6% decrease in revenues from existing customers within our mobility business due to weakened end user product demand. EMS segment revenues increased 1% due to a mix of increases and decreases spread across various industries within the EMS segment.

Net revenue remained relatively consistent at $9.6 billion during the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016. The DMS segment revenues decreased 2% as a result of a 9% decrease in revenues from existing customers within our mobility business due to weakened end user product demand, partially offset by a 5% increase in revenues due to new business from existing customers in our consumer lifestyles and wearable technologies business and a 2% increase in revenues due to new business from existing customers in our healthcare business. EMS segment revenues remained relatively consistent due to a mix of increases and decreases spread across various industries within the EMS segment.

Generally, we assess revenue on a global customer basis regardless of whether the growth is associated with organic growth or as a result of an acquisition. Accordingly, we do not differentiate or report separately revenue increases generated by acquisitions as opposed to existing business. In addition, the added cost structures associated with our acquisitions have historically been relatively insignificant when compared to our overall cost structure.

The distribution of revenue across our segments has fluctuated, and will continue to fluctuate, as a result of numerous factors, including but not limited to the following: fluctuations in customer demand as a result of recessionary and other conditions, such as the less than anticipated product demand that we experienced in our mobility business; efforts to de-emphasize the economic performance of certain portions of our business; seasonality in our business; business growth from new and existing customers; specific product performance; and any potential termination, or substantial winding down, of significant customer relationships.

##### Table of Contents

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, revenue by segment expressed as a percentage of net revenue:

|  | Three months ended |  |  | Six months ended |
|  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | February 29, 2016 |  |  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | February 29, 2016 |
EMS |  |  | 60 | % |  |  | 60 | % |  |  | 56 | % |  |  | 56 | %
DMS |  |  | 40 | % |  |  | 40 | % |  |  | 44 | % |  |  | 44 | %
Total |  |  | 100 | % |  |  | 100 | % |  |  | 100 | % |  |  | 100 | %

Foreign source revenue represented 90.9% and 91.7% of our net revenue for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to 90.3% and 91.3% of net revenue for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016. We currently expect our foreign source revenue to remain relatively consistent as compared to current levels over the course of the next 12 months.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased to $361.9 million (8.1% of net revenue) and $793.4 million (8.3% of net revenue) during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $399.4 million (9.1% of net revenue) and $883.0 million (9.2% of net revenue) during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. The decrease in gross profit on an absolute basis and as a percentage of revenue during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 is primarily due to revenues from existing customers in our DMS segment within the mobility business decreasing at a higher rate than certain of our fixed costs.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively consistent at $217.9 million (4.9% of net revenue) during the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to $224.9 million (5.1% of net revenue) during the three months ended February 29, 2016. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $432.0 million (4.6% of net revenue) during the six months ended February 28, 2017 compared to $476.5 million (5.0% of net revenue) during the six months ended February 29, 2016. The decrease was primarily as a result of a $21.0 million reversal to stock-based compensation expense during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 due to decreased expectations for the vesting of certain performance-based restricted stock awards. The remaining decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in salary and salary related expenses and other costs.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses remained relatively consistent at $7.1 million (0.2% of net revenue) and $14.7 million (0.2% of net revenue) during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $8.5 million (0.2% of net revenue) and $16.8 million (0.2% of net revenue) during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

Amortization of Intangibles. Amortization of intangibles remained relatively consistent at $8.8 million and $17.1 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $8.6 million and $16.4 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

Restructuring and Related Charges.

2017 Restructuring Plan

In conjunction with the 2017 Restructuring Plan, we charged $43.4 million and $77.5 million of restructuring and related charges to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017. The restructuring and related charges during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 include cash costs of $8.1 million and $26.0 million related to employee severance and benefit costs, respectively, $1.1 million and $4.5 million related to lease costs, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.3 million of other related costs, respectively, as well as non-cash costs of $34.1 million and $46.7 million related to asset write-off costs, respectively.

We currently expect to recognize approximately $195.0 million in pre-tax restructuring and other related costs over the course of the Company’s fiscal years 2017 and 2018 under the 2017 Restructuring Plan. The restructuring and related charges are expected to include $55.0 million to $75.0 million of employee severance and benefit costs; $110.0 million to $130.0 million of asset write-off costs; and $10.0 million of contract termination costs and other related costs. Since the inception of the 2017 Restructuring Plan, a total of $77.5 million of restructuring and related costs have been recognized as of February 28, 2017. The remaining $117.5 million of the restructuring and related costs expected to be recognized reflects our intention only and restructuring decisions, and the timing of such decisions, at certain plants are still subject to the finalization of timetables for the transition of functions and consultation with our employees and their representatives.

The 2017 Restructuring Plan is expected to yield annualized cost savings in the range of $70.0 million to $90.0 million which are expected to occur in fiscal year 2019. We have begun to realize a portion of these costs savings in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, and we are still evaluating any cost savings offsets. The annual cost savings is expected to be reflected as a reduction in cost of revenue as well as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expense.

2013 Restructuring Plan

In conjunction with the 2013 Restructuring Plan, we charged $1.5 million and $3.3 million of restructuring and related charges to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $2.5 million and $3.9 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. The restructuring and related charges during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 include cash costs of $1.0 million and $2.4 million related to employee severance and benefit costs, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.8 million of other related costs, respectively, as well as non-cash costs of $0.1 million and $0.1 million related to asset write-off costs, respectively. The restructuring and related charges during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016 include cash costs of $2.5 million and $3.6 million related to employee severance and benefit costs, respectively, and $0.0 million and $0.3 million of other related costs, respectively.

Upon its completion, the 2013 Restructuring Plan is expected to yield annualized cost savings of approximately $76.8 million. The expected avoided annual costs consist of a reduction in employee related expenses of $72.5 million, a reduction in depreciation expense associated with asset disposals of $3.1 million, and a reduction in rent expense associated with leased buildings that have been vacated of approximately $1.2 million. The majority of these annual cost savings are expected to be reflected as a reduction in cost of revenue as well as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expense. These annual costs savings are expected to be partially offset by decreased revenues and incremental costs expected to be incurred by those plants to which certain production will be shifted. After considering these partial cost savings offsets, we expect to realize annual cost savings of approximately $65.0 million.

For further discussion of restructuring and related charges related to the 2017 and 2013 Restructuring Plans, refer to Note 12 – “Restructuring and Related Charges” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest Income. Interest income remained relatively consistent over the prior periods at $2.3 million and $4.7 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $2.3 million and $4.4 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

Interest Expense. Interest expense remained relatively consistent at $33.8 million and $66.6 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $34.3 million and $67.3 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

Other Expense. Other expense remained relatively consistent at $3.4 million during the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to $2.2 million during the three months ended February 29, 2016. Other expense increased to $8.1 million during the six months ended February 28, 2017 compared to $3.9 million during the six months ended February 29, 2016. The increase is primarily due to an increase in fees associated with the asset-backed securitization programs and a loss associated with a cost method investment.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense reflects an effective tax rate of 58.3% and 40.3% for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to an effective tax rate of 35.1% and 30.5% for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively.

The effective tax rate for the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017 increased from the effective tax rate for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016 primarily due to decreased income in low tax-rate jurisdictions driven in part by an increase in restructuring expense.

Non-U.S. GAAP Core Financial Measures

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations include certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures as identified in the reconciliation below. The non-U.S. GAAP financial measures disclosed herein do not have standard meaning and may vary from the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures used by other companies or how we may calculate those measures in other instances from time to time. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Also, our “core” financial measures should not be construed as an inference by us that our future results will be unaffected by those items which are excluded from our “core” financial measures.

##### Table of Contents

Management believes that the non-U.S. GAAP “core” financial measures set forth below are useful to facilitate evaluating the past and future performance of our ongoing manufacturing operations over multiple periods on a comparable basis by excluding the effects of the amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense and related charges, restructuring and related charges, distressed customer charges, acquisition costs and certain purchase accounting adjustments, loss on disposal of subsidiaries, settlement of receivables and related charges, impairment of notes receivable and related charges, goodwill impairment charges, income (loss) from discontinued operations, gain (loss) on sale of discontinued operations and certain other expenses, net of tax and certain deferred tax valuation allowance charges. Among other uses, management uses non-U.S. GAAP “core” financial measures to make operating decisions, assess business performance and as a factor in determining certain employee performance when determining incentive compensation.

We determine the tax effect of the items excluded from “core” earnings and “core” basic and diluted earnings per share based upon evaluation of the statutory tax treatment and the applicable tax rate of the jurisdiction in which the pre-tax items were incurred, and for which realization of the resulting tax benefit, if any, is expected. In certain jurisdictions where we do not expect to realize a tax benefit (due to a history of operating losses or other factors resulting in a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets), a 0% tax rate is applied.

We are reporting “core” operating income and “core” earnings to provide investors with an additional method for assessing operating income and earnings, by presenting what we believe are our “core” manufacturing operations. A significant portion (based on the respective values) of the items that are excluded for purposes of calculating “core” operating income and “core” earnings also impacted certain balance sheet assets, resulting in a portion of an asset being written off without a corresponding recovery of cash we may have previously spent with respect to the asset. In the case of restructuring and related charges, we may be making associated cash payments in the future. In addition, although, for purposes of calculating “core” operating income and “core” earnings, we exclude stock-based compensation expense (which we anticipate continuing to incur in the future) because it is a non-cash expense, the associated stock issued may result in an increase in our outstanding shares of stock, which may result in the dilution of our stockholders’ ownership interest. We encourage you to evaluate these items and the limitations for purposes of analysis in excluding them.

Core earnings decreased 18.8% to $88.8 million and 20.4% to $218.4 million during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively, compared to $109.3 million and $274.2 million during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016, respectively. These variances were the result of the same factors described above in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – The Three Months And Six Months Ended February 28, 2017 Compared to the Three Months And Six Months Ended February 29, 2016.”

Acquisitions and Expansion

As discussed in Note 13 – “Business Acquisitions” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we completed three acquisitions during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016. Acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the operating results of each business from the date of acquisition.

Seasonality

Production levels for a portion of the DMS segment are subject to seasonal influences. We may realize greater net revenue during our first fiscal quarter due to higher demand for consumer related products manufactured in the DMS segment during the holiday selling season. Therefore, quarterly results should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2017, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash, available borrowings under our credit facilities, our asset-backed securitization programs and our uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth selected consolidated cash flow information during the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 (in thousands):

|  | Six months ended |
|  | February 28, 2017 |  |  | February 29, 2016 |
Net cash provided by operating activities |  | $ | 346,203 |  |  | $ | 72,658 |
Net cash used in investing activities |  |  | (308,327 | ) |  |  | (689,252 | )
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities |  |  | (201,412 | ) |  |  | 590,683 |
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 6,575 |  |  |  | (4,834 | )
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | (156,961 | ) |  | $ | (30,745 | )

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended February 28, 2017 was approximately $346.2 million. This resulted primarily from net income of $106.8 million, $380.3 million in non-cash depreciation and amortization expense and a $145.5 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets; which were partially offset by a $187.1 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities and a $77.6 million increase in accounts receivable. The decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets was primarily due to a decrease in value added tax receivables along with a decrease in the deferred purchase price receivable under our foreign asset-backed securitization program due to an increase in funding related to the increase in the facility limit from $275.0 million to $400.0 million and the timing of cash collections. The decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by the timing of purchases and cash payments and fluctuations in materials purchases across multiple segments and divisions. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily driven by the timing of sales and cash collections activity.

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended February 28, 2017 was $308.3 million. This consisted primarily of capital expenditures of $320.7 million principally to support ongoing business in the DMS and EMS segments and $5.3 million of cash paid for business and intangible asset acquisitions, net of cash received, partially offset by $19.0 million of proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended February 28, 2017 was $201.4 million. This resulted from our receipt of approximately $3.5 billion of proceeds from borrowings under existing debt agreements, which primarily included an aggregate of $3.1 billion of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $359.4 million under credit facilities with foreign subsidiaries. This was offset by repayments in an aggregate amount of approximately $3.5 billion, which primarily included an aggregate of $3.1 billion of repayments under the Revolving Credit Facility and $359.4 million under credit facilities with foreign subsidiaries. In addition, during the six months ended February 28, 2017 we paid $151.5 million, including commissions, to repurchase 6,938,605 of our common shares, we paid $30.9 million in dividends to stockholders and we paid $10.8 million (the equivalent of 499,803 of our common shares) to the IRS on behalf of certain employees to satisfy minimum tax obligations related to the vesting of certain restricted stock awards (as consideration for these payments to the IRS, we withheld $10.8 million of employee-owned common stock related to this vesting).

Sources

We may need to finance day-to-day working capital needs, as well as future growth and any corresponding working capital needs, with additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and our other revolving credit facilities described below, as well as additional public and private offerings of our debt and equity. Currently, we have a shelf registration statement with the SEC registering the potential sale of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities in the future, from time-to-time over the three years following the registration, to augment our liquidity and capital resources. The current shelf registration statement will expire in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 at which time we currently anticipate filing a new shelf registration statement. Any future sale or issuance of equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution to current or future shareholders. Further, we may issue debt securities that have rights and privileges senior to those of holders of ordinary shares, and the terms of this debt could impose restrictions on operations, increase debt service obligations, limit our flexibility as a result of debt service requirements and restrictive covenants, potentially negatively affect our credit ratings, and limit our ability to access additional capital or execute our business strategy. We continue to assess our capital structure and evaluate the merits of redeploying available cash to reduce existing debt or repurchase common shares.

##### Table of Contents

We regularly sell designated pools of trade accounts receivable under two asset-backed securitization programs and four uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs (collectively referred to herein as the “programs”). Transfers of the receivables under the programs are accounted for as sales and, accordingly, net receivables sold under the programs are excluded from accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Discussion of each of the programs is included in the following paragraphs. In addition, refer to Note 7 – “Trade Accounts Receivable Securitization and Sale Programs” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the programs.

a. Asset-Backed Securitization Programs

We continuously sell designated pools of trade accounts receivable, at a discount, under our asset-backed securitization programs to special purpose entities, which in turn sell 100% of the receivables to conduits administered by unaffiliated financial institutions (for the North American asset-backed securitization program) and to an unaffiliated financial institution and a conduit administered by an unaffiliated financial institution (for the foreign asset-backed securitization program). Any portion of the purchase price for the receivables which is not paid in cash upon the sale taking place is recorded as a deferred purchase price receivable, which is paid from available cash as payments on the receivables are collected. Net cash proceeds up to a maximum of $200.0 million for the North American asset-backed securitization program, currently scheduled to expire on October 20, 2017, are available at any one time. Net cash proceeds up to a maximum of $400.0 million for the foreign asset-backed securitization program, currently scheduled to expire on May 1, 2018, are available at any one time. The foreign asset-backed securitization program was amended to increase the facility limit from $275.0 million to $400.0 million, effective February 13, 2017.

In connection with our asset-backed securitization programs, at February 28, 2017, we sold $1.0 billion of eligible trade accounts receivable, which represents the face amount of total sold outstanding receivables at that date. In exchange, we received cash proceeds of $565.9 million and a deferred purchase price receivable. At February 28, 2017, the deferred purchase price receivable in connection with the asset-backed securitization programs totaled $467.2 million. The deferred purchase price receivable was recorded initially at fair value as prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

b. Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs

In connection with four separate trade accounts receivable sale programs with unaffiliated financial institutions, we may elect to sell, at a discount, on an ongoing basis, up to a maximum of $650.0 million, $150.0 million, 800.0 million Chinese yuan renminbi (“CNY”) and $100.0 million, respectively, of specific trade accounts receivable at any one time. The $650.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that will expire on August 31, 2017 (as the agreement was automatically extended on October 31, 2016), although any party may elect to terminate the agreement upon 15 days prior notice. The $150.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that will expire on August 31, 2017 unless renewed. The 800.0 million CNY trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that was entered into on February 15, 2017 and is scheduled to expire on February 15, 2018 unless renewed. The $100.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program is an uncommitted facility that is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2017 (as the agreement was automatically extended on October 31, 2016), although any party may elect to terminate the agreement upon 15 days prior notice. The $100.0 million trade accounts receivable sale program will be automatically extended until November 1, 2018, unless any party gives no less than 30 days prior notice that the agreement should not be extended.

During the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, we sold $0.7 billion and $1.7 billion of trade accounts receivable under these programs, respectively, and we received cash proceeds of $0.7 billion and $1.7 billion during the three months and six months ended February 28, 2017, respectively.

At February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants under our debt agreements and our asset-backed securitization programs.

Uses

At February 28, 2017, we had approximately $755.1 million in cash and cash equivalents. As our growth remains predominantly outside of the United States, a significant portion of such cash and cash equivalents are held by our foreign subsidiaries. We estimate that approximately $558.7 million of the cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries could not be repatriated to the United States without potential income tax consequences.

For discussion of our cash management and risk management policies see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

We currently anticipate that during the next 12 months, our capital expenditures, which do not include any amounts spent on acquisitions, will be in the range of $500.0 million to $600.0 million, principally to support ongoing business in the DMS and EMS segments. The amounts used to fund such capital expenditures will not be available to be deployed elsewhere by us. We believe that our level of resources, which include cash on hand, available borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, additional proceeds available under our trade accounts receivable securitization programs and potentially available under our uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs and funds provided by operations, will be adequate to fund these capital expenditures, the payment of any declared quarterly dividends, any potential acquisitions, debt repayments and our working capital requirements for the next 12 months.

Our 8.250% Senior Notes of $400.0 million will mature on March 15, 2018. We believe that our cash on hand and available borrowing under our credit facilities will be adequate to fund the payment of the 8.250% Senior Notes. However, we anticipate that we will enter into a new borrowing agreement to repay our $400.0 million 8.250% Senior Notes.

In June 2016, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $400.0 million of our common shares. The share repurchase program expires on August 31, 2017. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, we repurchased 4.9 million shares, which utilized $93.7 million of the $400.0 million authorized by our Board of Directors. During the six months ended February 28, 2017, we repurchased 7.0 million shares, which utilized an additional $151.4 million of the $400.0 million authorized by our Board of Directors.

On October 20, 2016 and January 26, 2017, our Board of Directors approved payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share to shareholders of record as of November 15, 2016 and February 15, 2017. Of the total cash dividend declared on October 20, 2016 of $15.2 million, $14.7 million was paid on December 1, 2016. The remaining $0.5 million is related to dividend equivalents on unvested restricted stock units that will be payable at the time the awards vest. Of the total cash dividend declared on January 26, 2017 of $15.1 million, $14.6 million was paid on March 1, 2017. The remaining $0.5 million is related to dividend equivalents on unvested restricted stock units that will be payable at the time the awards vest. We currently expect to continue to declare and pay regular quarterly dividends of an amount similar to our past declarations. However, the declaration and payment of future dividends are discretionary and will be subject to determination by our Board of Directors each quarter following its review of our financial performance.

##### Table of Contents

Our $200.0 million North American asset-backed securitization program is scheduled to expire on October 20, 2017, and our $400.0 million foreign asset-backed securitization program, amended to increase the facility limit from $275.0 million to $400.0 million, effective February 13, 2017, is scheduled to expire on May 1, 2018. We may be unable to renew either or both of these programs. We can offer no assurance under the $650.0 million, $150.0 million, 800.0 million CNY or the $100.0 million uncommitted sales programs that if we attempt to sell receivables under such programs in the future that we will receive funding from the associated banks which would require us to utilize other available sources of liquidity, including our revolving credit facilities.

Our working capital requirements and capital expenditures could continue to increase in order to support future expansions of our operations through construction of greenfield operations or acquisitions. It is possible that future expansions may be significant and may require the payment of cash. Future liquidity needs will also depend on fluctuations in levels of inventory and shipments, changes in customer order volumes and timing of expenditures for new equipment.

Should we desire to consummate significant additional acquisition opportunities or undertake significant additional expansion activities, our capital needs would increase and could possibly result in our need to increase available borrowings under our revolving credit facilities or access public or private debt and equity markets. There can be no assurance, however, that we would be successful in raising additional debt or equity on terms that we would consider acceptable.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations for short and long-term debt arrangements and capital lease obligations; future interest on notes payable, long-term debt and capital lease obligations; future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating lease arrangements; non-cancelable purchase order obligations for property, plant and equipment; and pension and postretirement contributions and payments as of February 28, 2017 are summarized below. While, as disclosed below, we have certain non-cancelable purchase order obligations for property, plant and equipment, we generally do not enter into non-cancelable purchase orders for materials until we receive a corresponding purchase commitment from our customer. Non-cancelable purchase orders do not typically extend beyond the normal lead time of several weeks at most. Purchase orders beyond this time frame are typically cancelable.

|  | Payments due by period (in thousands) |

(a) | Certain of our notes payable and long-term debt pay interest at variable rates. In the contractual obligations table above, we have elected to apply estimated interest rates to determine the value of these expected future interest payments.

(b) | Consists of purchase commitments entered into as of February 28, 2017 for property, plant and equipment pursuant to legally enforceable and binding agreements.

(c) | Includes the estimated company contributions to funded pension plans for the annualized six month period following the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 and the expected benefit payments for unfunded pension and postretirement plans through 2026. These future payments are not recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets but will be recorded when paid.

(d) | At February 28, 2017, we have $96.1 million recorded as a long-term liability for uncertain tax positions. We are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of payments, or the amount by which our liability for these uncertain tax positions will increase or decrease over time, and accordingly, this liability has been excluded from the above table.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Risks

We transact business in various foreign countries and are, therefore, subject to risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We enter into forward contracts to economically hedge transactional exposure associated with commitments arising from trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, intercompany transactions and fixed purchase obligations denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective operating entity. We do not, and do not intend to use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. All derivative instruments are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their

33

##### Table of Contents

respective fair values. At February 28, 2017, except for certain foreign currency contracts with a notional amount outstanding of $207.7 million and a fair value of $2.9 million recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $2.0 million recorded in accrued expenses, the forward contracts have not been designated as accounting hedges and, therefore, changes in fair value are recorded within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The aggregate notional amount of outstanding contracts at February 28, 2017 that are not designated as accounting hedges was $1.6 billion. The fair values of these contracts amounted to a $8.6 million asset recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $7.9 million liability recorded to accrued expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The forward contracts (both those that are designated as accounting hedging instruments and those that are not) will generally expire in less than three months, with nine months being the maximum term of the contracts outstanding at February 28, 2017. The change in fair value related to contracts designated as accounting hedging instruments will be reflected in the revenue or expense line in which the underlying transaction occurs within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The change in fair value related to contracts not designated as accounting hedging instruments will be reflected in cost of revenue within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The forward contracts are denominated in Brazilian reais, British pounds, Chinese yuan renminbi, Euros, Hungarian forints, Indian rupees, Israeli shekel, Japanese yen, Malaysian ringgits, Mexican pesos, Polish zlotys, Russian rubles, Singapore dollars, South African rand, Swedish krona, Swiss francs, Taiwan dollars and U.S. dollars.

Based on our overall currency rate exposures as of February 28, 2017, including the derivative financial instruments intended to hedge the nonfunctional currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, an immediate 10% hypothetical change of foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest Rate Risk

A portion of our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to our domestic investment portfolio. We do not, and do not intend to, use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. We place cash and cash equivalents with various major financial institutions. We protect our invested principal funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. We mitigate these risks by generally investing in investment grade securities and by frequently positioning the portfolio to try to respond appropriately to a reduction in credit rating of any investment issuer, guarantor or depository to levels below the credit ratings dictated by our investment policy. The portfolio typically includes only marketable securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity. At February 28, 2017, there were no significant outstanding investments.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, we entered into forward starting swap transactions to hedge the fixed interest rate payments for an anticipated debt issuance. The forward starting swaps have an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million and have been designated as hedging instruments and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The forward starting swaps are scheduled to expire on March 15, 2018. If the anticipated debt issuance occurs before March 15, 2018, the contracts will be terminated simultaneously with the debt issuance. The contracts will be settled with the respective counterparties on a net basis at the time of termination or expiration. Changes in the fair value of the forward starting swap transactions are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, we entered into interest rate swap transactions to hedge the variable interest rate payments for the Term Loan Facility. In connection with this transaction, we will pay interest based upon a fixed rate as agreed upon with the respective counterparties and receive variable rate interest payments based on the one-month LIBOR. The interest rate swaps have an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million and have been designated as hedging instruments and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swaps were effective on September 30, 2016 and are scheduled to expire on June 30, 2019. The contracts will be settled with the respective counterparties on a net basis at each settlement date. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap transactions are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI.

We pay interest on several of our outstanding borrowings at interest rates that fluctuate based upon changes in various base interest rates. There were $468.8 million in borrowings outstanding under these facilities at February 28, 2017. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Note 6 – “Notes Payable, Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our outstanding debt obligations. The effect of an immediate hypothetical 10% change in variable interest rates would not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act (“Disclosure

34

##### Table of Contents

Controls”) as of February 28, 2017. Based on the Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of our Disclosure Controls were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our senior management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

For our fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2017, we did not identify any modifications to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Many of the components of our internal controls over financial reporting are evaluated on an ongoing basis by our finance organization to ensure continued compliance with the Exchange Act. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our internal controls over financial reporting and to modify them as necessary. We intend to maintain our internal controls over financial reporting as dynamic processes and procedures that we adjust as circumstances merit, and we have reached our conclusions set forth above, notwithstanding certain improvements and modifications.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Other Matters

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.

The design of any system of controls 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; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations on the effectiveness of controls, we have nonetheless reached the conclusions set forth above on our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 are the Certifications of the CEO and the CFO, respectively. The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This Item of this report, which you are currently reading contains the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
