ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Flex Ltd., Singapore
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Flex Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 29, 2023, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, and redeemable noncontrolling interest and shareholders’ equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial information”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of Flex Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2023 and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, redeemable noncontrolling interest and shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated May 19, 2023, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
The interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as in the Notes thereto, have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
The first quarters for fiscal years 2024 and 2023 ended on June 30, 2023, which is comprised of 91 days in the period, and July 1, 2022, which is comprised of 92 days in the period, respectively. The second quarters for fiscal years 2024 and 2023 ended on September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, which are comprised of 91 days in both periods.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flex and its subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. The Company consolidates subsidiaries and investments in entities in which the Company has a controlling interest. A controlling financial interest may exist in variable interest entities (“VIEs”),
10

Table of Contents
through governance provisions and arrangements to provide services to VIEs. The Company is required to consolidate a VIE of which it is the primary beneficiary. To determine if the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates whether it has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb the losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company evaluates its relationships with its VIEs on an ongoing basis to determine whether it continues to be the primary beneficiary. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the assets and liabilities of VIEs that are consolidated. For the consolidated subsidiaries in which the Company owns less than 100%, the Company recognizes a noncontrolling interest for the ownership of the noncontrolling owners. As of September 29, 2023, we presented noncontrolling interest as permanent equity in the condensed balance sheets, reflecting the equity held by other parties. The amount of consolidated net income attributable to Flex Ltd. and the noncontrolling interest and redeemable noncontrolling interest are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things: allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory write-downs; valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; uncertain tax positions; valuation and useful lives of long-lived assets including property, equipment, and intangible assets; valuation of goodwill; valuation of investments in privately-held companies; asset impairments; fair values of financial instruments, notes receivable and derivative instruments; restructuring charges; contingencies; warranty provisions; incremental borrowing rates in determining the present value of lease payments; accruals for potential price adjustments arising from customer contracts; fair values of assets obtained and liabilities assumed in business combinations; and the fair values of stock options and restricted share unit awards granted under the Company's stock-based compensation plans. Due to the geopolitical conflicts (including the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war), there has been and will continue to be uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company has made estimates and assumptions taking into consideration certain possible impacts due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they occur.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04 "Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations", which requires a buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. To achieve that objective, the buyer should disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its supplier finance programs. The amendments in this update do not affect the recognition, measurement, or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance program. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, except for the amendment on rollforward information which is effective in fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance retrospectively during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, including a rollforward of changes in those obligations, with immaterial impacts on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company has four supplier finance programs, all of which have substantially similar characteristics, with various financial institutions that act as the paying agent for certain payables of the Company. The Company established these programs through agreements with the financial institutions to enable more efficient payment processing to our suppliers while also providing our suppliers a potential source of liquidity to the extent they choose to sell their receivables to the financial institutions in advance of the due date. Our suppliers’ participation in the programs is voluntary, the Company is not involved in negotiations of the suppliers’ arrangements with the financial institutions to sell their receivables, and our rights and obligations to our suppliers are not impacted by our suppliers’ decisions to sell amounts under these programs. Under these supplier finance programs, the Company pays the financial institutions the stated amount of confirmed invoices from its participating suppliers on the original maturity dates of the invoices. All payment terms are short-term in nature and are not dependent on whether the suppliers participate in the supplier finance programs or if the suppliers elect to receive early payment from the financial institutions. No guarantees are provided by the Company under the supplier finance programs and the Company incurs no costs related to the programs. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the supplier finance programs.
Obligations under these programs are classified within accounts payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with the associated payments reflected in the operating activities section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The

4. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Equity Compensation Plans
Flex historically maintains stock-based compensation plans at a corporate level. The Company's primary plan used for granting equity compensation awards is the Company's 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2017 Plan"). During the fiscal year 2023, Nextracker granted equity compensation awards to Nextracker employees under the 2022 Nextracker Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the "2022 Nextracker Plan"), which is administered by Nextracker, a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes the Company’s share-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans:

| Three-Month Periods Ended |  | Six-Month Periods Ended
| September 29, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022 |  | September 29, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022

Total share-based compensation expense | $ | 45 |  |  | $ | 27 |  |  | $ | 86 |  |  | $ | 53 |

Total number of options outstanding and exercisable were immaterial as of September 29, 2023. All options have been fully expensed as of September 29, 2023.
The 2017 Plan
During the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, the Company granted 4.9 million restricted share unit ("RSU") awards. Of this amount, approximately 3 million are plain-vanilla unvested RSU awards that vest over a period of three years, with no performance or market conditions, and with an average grant date price of $26.82 per award. In addition, approximately 0.4 million unvested shares represent the target amount of grants made to certain key employees whereby vesting is contingent on certain performance conditions, and with an average grant date price of $26.72 per award. The number of shares contingent on performance conditions that ultimately will vest will range from zero up to a maximum of approximately 0.8 million based

on a measurement of the Company's adjusted earnings per share growth over certain specified periods, and will cliff vest after a period of three years, to the extent such performance conditions have been met. Further, approximately 0.4 million unvested shares represent the target amount of grants made to certain key employees whereby vesting is contingent on certain market conditions. The average grant date fair value of these awards contingent on certain market conditions was estimated to be $35.64 per award and was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. The number of shares contingent on market conditions that ultimately will vest will range from zero up to a maximum of approximately 0.8 million based on a measurement of the percentile rank of the Company’s total shareholder return over certain specified periods against the Company's peer companies, and will cliff vest after a period of three years, to the extent such market conditions have been met. Finally, the remaining balance of approximately 1.2 million represents the number of shares issued upon vesting of RSU awards above target levels based on the achievement of certain market conditions for awards granted in the fiscal year 2021. These awards were issued and immediately vested in accordance with the terms and conditions of the underlying awards.
As of September 29, 2023, approximately 12 million unvested RSU awards under the 2017 plan were outstanding, of which vesting for a targeted amount of 1.2 million shares is contingent on meeting certain market conditions, and vesting for a targeted amount of 1.2 million shares is contingent on meeting certain performance conditions. The number of shares tied to market conditions that will ultimately be issued can range from zero to 2.4 million based on the achievement levels. The number of shares tied to performance conditions that will ultimately be issued can range from zero to 2.4 million based on the achievement levels. During the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, 2.3 million shares vested in connection with the awards with market conditions granted in fiscal year 2021.
As of September 29, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSU awards under the 2017 Plan, was approximately $203 million, and will be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.2 years.
The 2022 Nextracker Plan
During the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, Nextracker awarded 2.0 million equity-based compensation awards to its employees under the 2022 Nextracker Plan, which included approximately 0.5 million option awards, 1.1 million RSU ("NRSU") awards and 0.4 million performance-based restricted share unit ("NPSU") awards. Vesting for the awards granted under the 2022 Nextracker Plan is contingent upon continued employee service and also may be subject to certain performance conditions.
As of September 29, 2023, approximately 6.5 million unvested options awards, NRSU awards, and NPSU awards under the 2022 Nextracker Plan were outstanding, of which vesting for a targeted amount of approximately 4.0 million shares is contingent on meeting certain performance conditions.
Total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested awards under the 2022 Nextracker Plan was approximately $101 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.5 years. Approximately $25 million of expense was recognized for equity-based compensation awards granted under the 2022 Nextracker Plan for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023.

8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company enters into short-term and long-term foreign currency derivative contracts, including forward, swap, and options contracts, to hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt, and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. Gains and losses on the Company's derivative contracts are designed to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions hedged, and accordingly, generally do not subject the Company to risk of significant accounting losses. The Company hedges committed exposures and does not engage in speculative transactions. The credit risk of these derivative contracts is minimized since the contracts are with large financial institutions and, accordingly, fair value adjustments related to the credit risk of the counterparty financial institutions were not material.
As of September 29, 2023, the aggregate notional amount of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts was $11.3 billion as summarized below:

|  | Notional Contract Value in USD
Currency |  | Buy |  | Sell
Cash Flow Hedges |  |  |  |
HUF |  | $ | 439 |  |  | $ | — |

Total Notional Contract Value in USD |  | $ | 6,616 |  |  | $ | 4,703 |

As of September 29, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s short-term foreign currency contracts was included in other current assets or other current liabilities, as applicable, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these contracts are designed to economically hedge the Company’s exposure to monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a non-functional currency and are not accounted for as hedges under the accounting standards. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in earnings during the period of change as a component of other charges (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the Company also has included net deferred gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of shareholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, relating to changes in fair value of its foreign currency contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. Deferred loss was $7 million as of September 29, 2023, and is expected to be recognized primarily as a component of cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the next twelve-month period, except

for the USD HUF cross currency swaps.
The Company entered into USD HUF cross currency swaps in December 2021 to hedge the foreign currency risk on the HUF bonds due December 2031, and the fair value of the cross currency swaps was included in current and long-term other liabilities as of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023. The changes in fair value of the USD HUF cross currency swaps are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss. In addition, corresponding amounts are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to other charges (income), net to offset the remeasurement of the underlying HUF bond principal, which also impacts the same line.
The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments utilized for foreign currency risk management purposes:

The Company has financial instruments subject to master netting arrangements, which provide for the net settlement of all contracts with certain counterparties. The Company does not offset fair value amounts for assets and liabilities recognized for derivative instruments under these arrangements, as such, the asset and liability balances presented in the table above reflect the gross amounts of derivatives in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The impact of netting derivative assets and liabilities is not material to the Company’s financial position for any of the periods presented.

Substantially all unrealized gains and losses relating to derivative instruments and other, reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to other charges (income), net and cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, which primarily relate to the Company’s foreign currency contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges. The tax impacts on the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $11 million and $6 million, respectively. The tax impacts on the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $9 million and $10 million, respectively.
10. TRADE RECEIVABLES SECURITIZATION
The Company sells trade receivables under two asset-backed securitization programs and an accounts receivable factoring program.
Asset-Backed Securitization Programs
The Company historically has engaged in asset-backed securitization programs (the “ABS Programs”), selling trade receivables to affiliated special purpose entities and then to unaffiliated financial institutions. Upon the sale of the receivables from the special purpose entities to the unaffiliated financial institutions, the receivables are derecognized from our consolidated balance sheet as effective control of the transferred receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institutions, which have the right to pledge or sell the receivables. Accounts receivable sold under the ABS Programs are included as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flow. During the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, no accounts receivable were sold under the ABS Programs.
Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs
The Company also sells accounts receivables to certain third-party banking institutions. The outstanding balance of receivables sold and not yet collected on accounts where the Company has continuing involvement was approximately $0.8 billion and $0.8 billion as of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. For the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, total accounts receivable sold to certain third-party banking institutions was approximately $1.7 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively. The receivables that were sold were removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the cash received was included as cash provided by operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
20

Table of Contents
Level 1 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. There were no balances classified as level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023.
Level 2 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets) such as cash and cash equivalents and money market funds; or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
The Company values foreign exchange forward contracts using level 2 observable inputs which primarily consist of an income approach based on the present value of the forward rate less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount.
The Company’s cash equivalents include bank time deposits and money market funds, which are valued using level 2 inputs, such as interest rates and maturity periods. Due to their short-term nature, their carrying amount approximates fair value.
The Company has deferred compensation plans for its officers and certain other employees. Amounts deferred under the plans are invested in hypothetical investments selected by the participant or the participant's investment manager. The Company's deferred compensation plan assets are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and include money market funds, mutual funds, corporate and government bonds and certain convertible securities that are valued using prices obtained from various pricing sources. These sources price these investments using certain market indices and the performance of these investments in relation to these indices. As a result, the Company has classified these investments as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Level 3 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
There were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation and other legal matters
In connection with the matters described below, the Company has accrued for loss contingencies where it believes that losses are probable and estimable. Although it is reasonably possible that actual losses could be in excess of the Company’s accrual, the Company is unable to estimate a reasonably possible loss or range of loss in excess of its accrual, due to various reasons, including, among others, that: (i) the proceedings are in early stages or no claims have been asserted, (ii) specific damages have not been sought in all of these matters, (iii) damages, if asserted, are considered unsupported and/or exaggerated, (iv) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals, motions, or settlements, (v) there are significant factual issues to be resolved, and/or (vi) there are novel legal issues or unsettled legal theories presented. Any such excess loss could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for a particular period or on the Company’s financial condition.
One of the Company's Brazilian subsidiaries has received assessments for certain sales and import taxes. There were originally six tax assessments totaling the updated amount inclusive of interest and penalties of 419 million Brazilian reals (approximately USD $83 million based on the exchange rate as of September 29, 2023). The Company successfully defeated one of the six assessments in September 2019 (totaling approximately 61 million Brazilian reals or USD $12 million). The Company successfully defeated another three of the assessments in September 2022 (totaling the updated amount inclusive of interest and penalties of approximately 261 million Brazilian reals or USD $52 million), each of which remains subject to appeal. The Company was unsuccessful at the administrative level for one of the assessments and filed an annulment action in federal court in Brasilia, Brazil on March 23, 2020; the updated value of that assessment inclusive of interest and penalties is 41 million Brazilian reals (approximately USD $8 million). One of the assessments remains in the review process at the administrative level. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to each of these assessments and will continue to vigorously oppose all of them, as well as any future assessments. The Company does not expect final judicial determination on any of these claims in the near future.
On February 14, 2019, the Company submitted an initial notification of voluntary disclosure to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") regarding possible noncompliance with U.S. economic sanctions requirements among certain non-U.S. Flex-affiliated operations. On September 28, 2020, the Company made a submission to OFAC that completed the Company’s voluntary disclosure based on the results of an internal investigation regarding the matter. On June 11, 2021, the Company notified OFAC that it had identified possible additional relevant transactions at one non-U.S. Flex-affiliated operation. The Company submitted an update to OFAC on November 16, 2021 reporting on the results of its review of those transactions. The Company intends to continue to cooperate fully with OFAC in this matter going forward. Nonetheless, it is reasonably possible that the Company could be subject to penalties that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Table of Contents
A foreign Tax Authority (“Tax Authority”) has assessed a cumulative total of approximately $221 million in taxes owed for multiple Flex legal entities within its jurisdiction for various fiscal years ranging from fiscal year 2010 through fiscal year 2020. The assessed amounts related to the denial of certain deductible intercompany payments and taxability of income earned outside such jurisdiction. The Company disagrees with the Tax Authority’s assessments and is actively contesting the assessments through the administrative and judicial processes.
As the final resolution of the above outstanding tax item 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 may be 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.
In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company defends itself vigorously against any such claims. Although the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management expects that any losses that are probable or reasonably possible of being incurred as a result of these matters, which are in excess of amounts already accrued in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, would not be material to the financial statements as a whole.
13. SHARE REPURCHASES
During the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023, the Company repurchased 11.5 million and 20.1 million shares at an aggregate purchase price of $309 million and $506 million, respectively, and retired all of these shares. During the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, the Company also retired an additional 50.2 million shares of treasury stock which were repurchased in the prior periods, at an aggregate purchase price of $388 million.
Under the Company’s current share repurchase program, the Board of Directors authorized repurchases of its outstanding ordinary shares for up to $2.0 billion in accordance with the share repurchase mandate approved by the Company’s shareholders at the date of the most recent Annual General Meeting held on August 2, 2023. As of September 29, 2023, shares in the aggregate amount of $1.8 billion were available to be repurchased under the current plan.
14. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company reports its financial performance based on three operating and reportable segments, Flex Agility Solutions, Flex Reliability Solutions and Nextracker, and analyzes operating income as the measure of segment profitability. The determination of these segments is based on several factors, including the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics.
An operating segment's performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net sales less cost of sales, and segment selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include intangible amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, legal and other, and interest, net and other charges (income), net. A portion of depreciation is allocated to the respective segments, together with other general corporate research and development and administrative expenses.

(1)Legal and other consists of costs not directly related to core business results and may include matters relating to commercial disputes, government regulatory and compliance, intellectual property, antitrust, tax, employment or shareholder issues, product liability claims and other issues on a global basis as well as acquisition related costs and customer related asset recoveries. During the first half of fiscal year 2023, the Company accrued for certain loss contingencies where losses are considered probable and estimable.
Corporate and other primarily includes corporate service costs that are not included in the chief operating decision maker's ("CODM") assessment of the performance of each of the identified reportable segments.
The Company provides an overall platform of assets and services, which the segments utilize for the benefit of their various customers. The shared assets and services are contained within the Company's global manufacturing and design operations and include manufacturing and design facilities. Most of the underlying manufacturing and design assets are co-mingled in the operating campuses and are compatible to operate across segments and highly interchangeable throughout the platform. Given the highly interchangeable nature of the assets, they are not separately identified by segment nor reported by segment to the Company's CODM.
15. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
During the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023, the Company recognized approximately $3 million and $26 million of restructuring charges, most of which related to employee severance.

16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The Company controls Nextracker Inc. ("Nextracker") through its holding of Class B common stock that does not participate in the earnings of Nextracker. As such, the shareholders of the equity at risk in Nextracker (the Class A common stock shareholders) do not have the power to direct the key activities of Nextracker and consequently Nextracker is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Company has the ability to control Nextracker's activities through its control of 51.5% and 61.4% of the voting rights of Nextracker as of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. The Company also has the ability to receive significant benefits from the VIE (through its ability to convert its investments in Nextracker and Nextracker LLC into Class A common stock of Nextracker or cash) and as such the Company has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. As such, the Company continues to consolidate Nextracker and the interests in Nextracker held by third parties are presented as a noncontrolling interest. Evaluation of the VIE model and identification of the primary beneficiary requires significant judgements to be made regarding which entities can control the activities of a VIE, who can receive benefits or absorb losses from the VIE and the significance of those benefits and losses to the VIE.
On July 3, 2023, the Company's subsidiary Nextracker completed a follow-on offering to its initial public offering ("IPO"), which was completed on February 13, 2023, and issued 15,631,562 shares of Class A common stock and received net proceeds of $551 million. The entire net proceeds were used by Nextracker to acquire 14,025,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma, Inc., the Company’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, and 1,606,562 Nextracker LLC common units from TPG Rise Flash, L.P., an affiliate of the global alternative asset management firm TPG. As a result of the repurchase of Nextracker LLC common units by Nextracker, 15,631,562 shares of Nextracker Class B common stock were cancelled. The Company received approximately $495 million from the follow-on offering, after distribution of net proceeds to TPG and expenses.
As of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023, noncontrolling interest was $450 million and $355 million, respectively. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $178 million and $203 million for the three and six-months periods ended September 29, 2023, respectively. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was zero for both the three and six-months periods ended September 30, 2022. As a result of Nextracker's February 13, 2023 IPO, the noncontrolling interest previously determined to be redeemable prior to the IPO did not exist as of September 29, 2023. Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest was zero for both the three and six-months periods ended September 29, 2023. Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest was $6 million and $12 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

We are the diversified manufacturing partner of choice that helps market-leading brands design, build and deliver innovative products that improve the world. Through the collective strength of a global workforce across approximately 30 countries with responsible, sustainable operations, we support the entire product lifecycle with advanced manufacturing solutions and operate one of the most trusted global supply chains. We also provide additional value to customers through a broad array of services, including design engineering, component services, rapid prototyping, fulfillment, and circular economy solutions. We support a diverse set of industries including cloud, communications, enterprise, automotive, industrial, consumer devices, lifestyle, healthcare, and energy. As of September 29, 2023, our three operating and reportable segments were as follows:
•Flex Agility Solutions ("FAS"), which is comprised of the following end markets:
◦Communications, Enterprise and Cloud, including data infrastructure, edge infrastructure and communications infrastructure
◦Lifestyle, including appliances, consumer packaging, floorcare, micro mobility and audio

Our strategy is to provide customers with a full range of cost competitive, vertically-integrated global supply chain solutions through which we can design, build, ship and service a complete packaged product for our customers. This enables our customers to leverage our supply chain solutions to meet their product requirements throughout the entire product lifecycle.
Over the past few years, we have seen an increased level of diversification by many companies, primarily in the technology sector. Some companies that have historically identified themselves as software providers, Internet service providers or e-commerce retailers have entered the highly competitive and rapidly evolving technology hardware markets, such as mobile devices, home entertainment and wearable devices. This trend has resulted in a significant change in the manufacturing and supply chain solution requirements of such companies. While the products have become more complex, the supply chain solutions required by such companies have become more customized and demanding, and it has changed the manufacturing and supply chain landscape significantly.

We use a portfolio approach to manage our extensive service offerings. As our customers change the way they go to market, we have the capability to reorganize and rebalance our business portfolio in order to align with our customers' needs and requirements in an effort to optimize operating results. The objective of our business model is to allow us to be flexible and redeploy and reposition our assets and resources as necessary to meet specific customers' supply chain solution needs across all the markets we serve and earn a return on our invested capital above the weighted average cost of that capital.
We believe that our continued business transformation is strategically positioning us to take advantage of the long-term, future growth prospects for outsourcing of advanced manufacturing capabilities, design and engineering services and after-market services.
Update on Component Shortages and Logistical Constraints on our Business
Component shortages and logistical constraints improved as the year progressed. We continue to monitor potential supply chain disruptions. Refer to “Risk Factors - “Supply chain disruptions, manufacturing interruptions or delays, or the failure to accurately forecast customer demand, have in the past affected, and may in the future, affect our ability to meet customer demand, lead to higher costs, or result in excess or obsolete inventory. We have been and continue to be adversely affected by supply chain issues, including shortages of required electronic components.” as disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
We are continuously evaluating our capital structure in response to the current environment and expect that our current financial condition, including our liquidity sources are adequate to fund future commitments. See additional discussion in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below.
Russian Invasion of Ukraine and Israel-Hamas War
We continue to monitor and respond to the escalating conflict in Ukraine and the associated sanctions and other restrictions. We also are monitoring and responding to the Israel-Hamas war. As of the date of this report, there is no material impact to our business operations and financial performance in Ukraine and Israel. The full impact of the conflicts on our business operations and financial performance remains uncertain and will depend on future developments, including the severity and duration of the conflicts and its impact on regional and global economic conditions. We will continue to monitor the conflicts and assess the related restrictions and other effects and pursue prudent decisions for our team members, customers, and business.
Other Developments
On July 3, 2023, our subsidiary Nextracker Inc. ("Nextracker") completed a follow-on offering to its initial public offering, which was completed on February 13, 2023, and issued 15,631,562 shares of Class A common stock and received net proceeds of $551 million. The entire net proceeds were used by Nextracker to acquire 14,025,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma, Inc., our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, and 1,606,562 Nextracker LLC common units from TPG Rise Flash, L.P., an affiliate of the global alternative asset management firm TPG. As a result of the repurchase of Nextracker LLC common units by Nextracker, 15,631,562 shares of Nextracker Class B common stock were cancelled. Subsequent to the follow-on offering, we owned 74,432,619 shares of Class B common stock, representing 51.5% of the total outstanding shares of Nextracker common stock and, accordingly, still control Nextracker. We received approximately $495 million from the follow-on offering, after distribution of net proceeds to TPG and expenses.
On October 25, 2023, we announced our plan to effect a spin-off of all of our remaining interests in Nextracker to our shareholders on a pro rata basis pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”). The spin-off is subject to a number of conditions as set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of our shareholders in accordance with Singapore law, and there is no assurance that any such conditions will be satisfied or waived. The spin-off is currently expected to be completed in our fourth quarter ending March 31, 2024.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Due to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war, there has been and we expect there will continue to be uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. We have made estimates and assumptions taking into consideration certain possible impacts due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Refer to the accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, where we discuss our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Net sales during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 totaled $7.5 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.3 billion, or 4% from $7.8 billion during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. Net sales for our FAS segment decreased approximately $0.4 billion, or 10% from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a significant decrease in our Consumer Devices business, a low double-digit percentage decrease in our Lifestyle business, and a mid single-digit percentage decrease in our Communications, Enterprise and Cloud ("CEC") due to difficult year-over year comparisons in CEC, along with softer market demand in certain markets, and weakness in consumer end markets. Net sales for our FRS segment remained relatively flat and increased approximately $15 million, from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a high single-digit percentage increase in our Automotive business due to higher customer demand and ramps across various end markets, offset by a low single-digit percentage decrease in Industrial due to difficult year-over year comparisons and lower customer demand. Net sales for our Health Solutions business remained relatively flat due to customer ramps offset by lower customer demand. Net sales for our Nextracker segment increased approximately $0.1 billion, or 21% from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by an increase in
31

gigawatts delivered. Net sales increased $0.2 billion to $3.7 billion in the Americas, decreased $0.4 billion to $2.4 billion in Asia, and decreased $0.1 billion to $1.4 billion in Europe.
Net sales during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 totaled $14.8 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.3 billion, or 2% from $15.1 billion during the six-month period ended September 30, 2022. Net sales for our FAS segment decreased approximately $0.8 billion, or 10% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a significant decrease in our Consumer Devices business, a low double-digit percentage decrease in our Lifestyle business and a low single-digit percentage decrease in our CEC business due to the same factors as noted in the three-month period discussion above. Net sales for our FRS segment increased approximately $0.3 billion, or 5% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a low double-digit percentage increase in our Automotive business, a mid single-digit percentage increase in our Health Solutions business and a low single-digit percentage increase in our Industrial business due to strong customer demand and ramps across various end markets. Net sales for our Nextracker segment increased approximately $0.2 billion, or 21% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by the same factors as noted in the three-month period discussion above. Net sales increased $0.4 billion to $7.2 billion in the Americas, decreased $0.6 billion to $4.7 billion in Asia, and decreased $0.1 billion to $3.0 billion in Europe.
Our ten largest customers during the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 accounted for approximately 33% of net sales. Our ten largest customers during the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2022 accounted for approximately 35% of net sales. No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales during the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 or September 30, 2022.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales is affected by a number of factors, including the number and size of new manufacturing programs, product mix, labor cost fluctuations by region, component costs and availability and capacity utilization.
Cost of sales during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 totaled $6.8 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.4 billion, or 5% from $7.2 billion during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. The lower cost of sales for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 was primarily driven by decreased consolidated sales of $0.3 billion or 4%. Cost of sales in FAS for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 decreased approximately $0.4 billion, or 10% from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, which is relatively in line with the overall 10% decrease in FAS revenue during the same period primarily as a result of lower revenue in our Consumer Devices, Lifestyle, and CEC businesses. Cost of sales in FRS for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased approximately $14 million, or 0.5% from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, which is in line with the overall modest increase in FRS revenue during the same period, primarily as a result of higher revenue in our Automotive business. Cost of sales in our Nextracker segment for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased approximately $11 million, or 3% from the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the 21% increase in Nextracker revenue during the same period, offset by improved profitability resulting from a decline in freight and logistics cost increases and overall better execution on our contracts.
Cost of sales during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 totaled $13.5 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.5 billion, or 3% from $14.0 billion during the six-month period ended September 30, 2022. The lower cost of sales for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 was primarily driven by decreased consolidated sales of $0.3 billion or 2%. Cost of sales in FAS for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 decreased approximately $0.7 billion, or 10% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, which is aligned with the overall 10% decrease in FAS revenue during the same period primarily due to the drivers noted in the discussion above for the three-month period. Cost of sales in FRS for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased approximately $0.3 billion, or 5% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, which is in line with the overall 5% increase in FRS revenue during the same period, primarily due to the drivers noted in the discussion above for the three-month period. Cost of sales in our Nextracker segment for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased approximately $28 million, or 4% from the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by the same factors noted above in the three-month period discussion.
Gross profit
Gross profit is affected by a fluctuation in cost of sales elements as outlined above and further by a number of factors, including product lifecycles, unit volumes, product mix, pricing, competition, new product introductions, and the expansion or consolidation of manufacturing facilities, as well as specific restructuring activities initiated from time to time. The flexible design of our manufacturing processes allows us to manufacture a broad range of products in our facilities and better utilize our manufacturing capacity across our diverse geographic footprint and service customers from all segments. In the case of new programs, profitability normally lags revenue growth due to product start-up costs, lower manufacturing program volumes in the start-up phase, operational inefficiencies, and under-absorbed overhead. Gross margin for these programs often improves
32

over time as manufacturing volumes increase, as our utilization rates and overhead absorption improve, and as we increase the level of manufacturing services content. As a result of these various factors, our gross margin varies from period to period.
Gross profit during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased $0.1 billion to $0.7 billion, or 8.9% of net sales, from $0.6 billion, or 7.6% of net sales, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. Gross margin improved 130 basis points during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 primarily due to favorable mix with growth in our higher-margin FRS and Nextracker segments, partially offset by unfavorable mix in our CEC business.
Gross profit during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 increased $0.1 billion to $1.3 billion, or 8.5% of net sales, from $1.1 billion, or 7.5% of net sales, during the six-month period ended September 30, 2022. Gross margin improved 100 basis points during the same period due to the same factors noted above in the three-month period discussion.
Segment income
An operating segment's performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net sales less cost of sales, and segment selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include intangible amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, legal and other, and interest, net and other charges (income), net. A portion of depreciation is allocated to the respective segments, together with other general corporate research and development and administrative expenses.
The following table sets forth segment income and margins. Segment margins in the table below may not recalculate exactly due to rounding.

| Three-Month Periods Ended |  | Six-Month Periods Ended
| September 29, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022 |  | September 29, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022
| (In millions)
Segment income: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Flex Agility Solutions | $ | 168 |  |  | 4.6 | % |  | $ | 170 |  |  | 4.3 | % |  | $ | 314 |  |  | 4.3 | % |  | $ | 342 |  |  | 4.3 | %
Flex Reliability Solutions | 171 |  |  | 5.2 | % |  | 175 |  |  | 5.3 | % |  | 336 |  |  | 5.1 | % |  | 322 |  |  | 5.1 | %
Nextracker | 112 |  |  | 19.5 | % |  | 43 |  |  | 9.1 | % |  | 194 |  |  | 18.4 | % |  | 73 |  |  | 8.4 | %

FAS segment margin increased approximately 30 basis points, to 4.6%, for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, from 4.3% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. The margin increase was primarily due to strong execution against new project ramps and product mix. The FAS segment margin remained relatively flat at 4.3% for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022. This was primarily due to strong execution against new project ramps and product mix offset by unfavorable mix and ramp costs in CEC.
FRS segment margin decreased approximately 10 basis points, to 5.2% for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, from 5.3% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in FRS segment margin was primarily driven by unabsorbed costs associated with lower sales in our Industrial business. FRS segment margin remained relatively flat at 5.1% for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022. This was driven by improving margins in our Health Solutions business due to increased productivity offset by continued project ramps and unabsorbed costs associated with lower sales in our Industrial business.
Nextracker segment margin increased approximately 1,040 basis points, to 19.5% for the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, from 9.1% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. The margin increase was driven by improved pricing, freight savings, and favorable cost absorption with increased revenue. Nextracker segment margin increased approximately 1,000 basis points, to 18.4% for the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, from 8.4% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2022. The increase in Nextracker segment margin during the six-month period is due to the same factors noted in the discussion above for the three-month period.
Restructuring charges
During the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023, we recognized approximately $3 million and $26 million of restructuring charges, respectively, primarily related to employee severance.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) was approximately $0.3 billion, or 3.6% of net sales, during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, increasing $27 million from approximately $0.2 billion or 3.2% of net sales, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. SG&A was $0.5 billion, or 3.7% of net sales, during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, increasing $56 million from $0.5 billion or 3.2% of net sales, during the six-month period
33

ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to elevated SG&A costs to support higher revenue growth in our Nextracker business and higher labor costs.
Intangible amortization
Amortization of intangible assets decreased to $17 million during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023, from $21 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, and decreased to $37 million during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, from $43 million for the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to certain intangibles now being fully amortized.
Interest, net
Interest, net was an expense of $35 million during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 compared to an expense of $47 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher interest income, and lower interest expense compared to the prior year period.
Interest, net was an expense of $76 million during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 compared to an expense of $96 million during the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher interest income, offset by higher variable interest expense compared to the prior year period.
Other charges (income), net
Other charges (income), net was an expense of $16 million during the three-month period ended September 29, 2023 compared to an expense of $6 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a higher foreign exchange transaction loss recognized compared to the prior year period.
Other charges (income), net was an expense of $27 million during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023 compared to an income of $3 million during the six-month period ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the same drivers noted in the discussion above.
Income taxes
Certain of our subsidiaries, at various times, have been granted tax relief in their respective countries, resulting in lower income taxes than would otherwise be the case under ordinary tax rates. Refer to note 15, “Income Taxes” of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 for further discussion.
The consolidated effective tax rate was (25)% and (9)% for the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023, and 13% and 14% for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The effective rate varies from the Singapore statutory rate of 17% as a result of recognition of earnings in different jurisdictions (we generate most of our revenues and profits from operations outside of Singapore), operating loss carryforwards, income tax credits, release of previously established valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, as well as the effect of certain tax holidays and incentives granted to our subsidiaries primarily in China, Malaysia, the Netherlands and Israel. The effective tax rate for the three and six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 were significantly lower than the effective tax rates for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to the recording of a $140 million deferred tax asset, with an offsetting entry to income tax benefit fully attributable to noncontrolling interest in connection with Nextracker's follow-on public offering whereby Nextracker purchased additional Nextracker LLC units from a related Flex U.S. subsidiary.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was enacted into law, which includes a new corporate minimum tax, a stock repurchase excise tax, numerous green energy credits, other tax provisions, and significantly increased enforcement resources. While detailed regulations on some aspects of the act are still outstanding, we do not anticipate a material impact to our consolidated financial statements from these provisions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In response to the challenging economic environment following the COVID-19 pandemic, we continuously evaluate our ability to meet our obligations over the next 12 months and have proactively reset our capital structure during these times to improve maturities and liquidity. As a result, we expect that our current financial condition, including our liquidity sources are adequate to fund current and future commitments. As of September 29, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.9 billion and bank and other borrowings of approximately $3.4 billion. As of September 29, 2023, we had a $2.5 billion revolving credit facility that is due to mature in July 2027, and a $0.5 billion Nextracker revolving credit facility that is due to mature in February 2028, under which we had no borrowings outstanding. As of September 29, 2023, we were in
34

compliance with the covenants under all of our credit facilities and indentures; we also expect to remain in compliance with the covenants in the upcoming 12 months for our credit facilities and indentures.
In fiscal year 2024, we implemented a 10b5-1 bond buyback program, aiming to repurchase certain outstanding bonds issued by us. During the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, we repurchased approximately $8 million of the 4.750% Notes due 2025, resulting in an immaterial gain on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Cash provided by operating activities was $0.4 billion during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, primarily driven by $0.6 billion of net income for the period plus $0.3 billion of non-cash charges such as depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation offset by certain changes in net working capital as discussed below.
We believe net working capital ("NWC") is a key metric that measures our liquidity. Net working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities. Net working capital increased approximately $0.2 billion to $5.4 billion as of September 29, 2023, from $5.2 billion as of March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of the effect of a decrease in working capital advances of $0.3 billion and accounts payable of $0.2 billion partially offset by a reduction in inventory of $0.4 billion.
Cash used in investing activities was $0.3 billion during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023. This was primarily driven by $0.3 billion of net capital expenditures for property and equipment to continue expanding capabilities and capacity in support of our expanding CEC, Automotive, Industrial, Health Solutions, and Lifestyle businesses.
We believe adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to repay debt obligations, make investments, fund acquisitions, repurchase company shares and for certain other activities. Our adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash from operations, less net purchases of property and equipment allowing us to present adjusted cash flows on a consistent basis for investors. Our adjusted free cash flow for the six-month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was an inflow of $0.1 billion and an outflow of $0.1 billion, respectively. Adjusted free cash flow is not a measure of liquidity under U.S. GAAP, and may not be defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner. Adjusted free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted free cash flows reconcile to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of cash flows from operations as follows:

| Six-Month Periods Ended
| September 29, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022
| (In millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 363 |  |  | $ | 141 |
Purchases of property and equipment | (319) |  |  | (296) |
Proceeds from the disposition of property and equipment | 19 |  |  | 18 |
Adjusted free cash flow | $ | 63 |  |  | $ | (137) |

Cash used by financing activities was $0.5 billion during the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, which was primarily driven by $0.5 billion of cash paid for the repurchase of our ordinary shares and $0.4 billion in repayments of bank borrowings and long-term debt, offset by $0.5 billion of net proceeds from the issuance of Nextracker shares, after the distribution to TPG and expenses.
Our cash balances are generated and held in numerous locations throughout the world. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Local government regulations may restrict our ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances; however, any current restrictions are not material. We do not currently expect such regulations and restrictions to impact our ability to pay vendors and conduct operations throughout the global organization. We believe that our existing cash balances, together with anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund our operations through at least the next twelve months. As of September 29, 2023 and March 31, 2023, approximately 33% and 27%, respectively, of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries outside of Singapore. Although substantially all of the amounts held outside of Singapore could be repatriated under current laws, a significant amount could be subject to income tax withholdings. We provide for tax liabilities on these amounts for financial statement purposes, except for certain of our foreign earnings that are considered indefinitely reinvested outside of Singapore (approximately $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2023). Repatriation could result in an additional income tax payment; however, for the majority of our foreign entities, our intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of Singapore and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund our operations in jurisdictions outside of where they are held. Where local restrictions prevent an efficient intercompany transfer of funds, our intent is that cash balances would remain outside of Singapore and we would meet our liquidity needs through ongoing cash flows, external borrowings, or both.
35

Future liquidity needs will depend on fluctuations in levels of inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable, the timing of capital expenditures for new equipment, the extent to which we utilize operating leases for new facilities and equipment, and the levels of shipments and changes in the volumes of customer orders.
We maintain various uncommitted short-term financing facilities including but not limited to a commercial paper program, and a revolving sale and repurchase of subordinated notes established under the asset-backed securitization ("ABS") programs, under which there were no borrowings outstanding as of September 29, 2023.
Historically, we have funded operations from cash and cash equivalents generated from operations, proceeds from public offerings of equity and debt securities, bank debt and lease financings. We also have the ability to sell a designated pool of trade receivables under ABS programs and sell certain trade receivables, which are in addition to the trade receivables sold in connection with these securitization agreements. We may enter into debt and equity financings, sales of accounts receivable and lease transactions to fund acquisitions and anticipated growth as needed.
The sale or issuance of equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution to current 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 and could increase debt service obligations. This increased indebtedness could limit our flexibility as a result of debt service requirements and restrictive covenants, potentially affect our credit ratings, and may limit our ability to access additional capital or execute our business strategy. Any downgrades in credit ratings could adversely affect our ability to borrow as a result of more restrictive borrowing terms. We continue to assess our capital structure and evaluate the merits of redeploying available cash to reduce existing debt or repurchase ordinary shares.
Under our current share repurchase program, our Board of Directors authorized repurchases of our outstanding ordinary shares for up to $2.0 billion in accordance with the share purchase mandate approved by our shareholders at the date of the most recent Annual General Meeting which was held on August 2, 2023. During the six-month period ended September 29, 2023, we paid $506 million to repurchase shares under the current and prior repurchase plans at an average price of $25.11 per share. As of September 29, 2023, shares in the aggregate amount of $1.8 billion were available to be repurchased under the current plan.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For a description of our material legal proceedings, see note 12 “Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be not material also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
We are including the following additional risk factors, which supplement the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023, and which should be read in conjunction with our description of risk factors in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023:
We expect to effectuate a distribution of the remaining interests that we indirectly own in Nextracker Inc. (“Nextracker”) to all our shareholders through a series of transactions. The completion of such transactions is subject to numerous conditions which may not be satisfied or waived, and such transactions may not occur.
Pursuant to that certain Merger Agreement by and among us, Nextracker, Yuma, Inc. (“Yuma”) and Yuma Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”) dated as of February 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), we expect to effectuate a distribution of the remaining interests that we own in Nextracker to all our shareholders through the following transactions (together, the “Transactions”): (i) a court-approved capital reduction to be carried out pursuant to Section 78G of the Singapore Companies Act (the “Capital Reduction”), (ii) a distribution of all the shares of the common stock, par value $0.001, of Yuma (the “Yuma Common Stock”) by way of a distribution in specie to our shareholders (the “Distribution”), (iii) the merger of Yuma with and into Yuma Acquisition, Inc., with Yuma surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker (the “Merger”) and pursuant to which each share of Yuma Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will automatically convert into the right to receive a number of shares of Class A common stock of Nextracker (the “Class A common stock”) based on the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (with cash payments to holders of shares of Yuma Common Stock in lieu of any fractional shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement), and (iv) the merger of Yuma with and into a wholly-owned limited liability company subsidiary of Nextracker, with such limited liability company surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker, to be undertaken shortly following the completion of the Merger (together with the Merger, the “Mergers”).
The obligations of Nextracker and us to complete the Transactions are subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, that: (i) we have not exercised our sole and absolute discretion to rescind the written notice we delivered to Nextracker on October 25, 2023 to exercise Flextronics International USA, Inc.’s (“FIUI”) right to effect the Merger, which rescission would result in the abandonment of the Transactions; (ii) we have received the affirmative vote by the holders of at least three-fourths of our Ordinary Shares voting at an extraordinary general meeting of our shareholders in favor of the Capital Reduction and Distribution; (iii) the High Court of Singapore has approved the Capital Reduction and the Distribution; (iv) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-275164) filed with the SEC on October 25, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”) and declared effective by the SEC on October 27, 2023 has been issued and no proceedings for seeking a stop order is pending before the SEC; (v) no governmental entity has enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any law, rule, regulation, judgment, injunction, stipulation, decree, order or award restraining, enjoining or otherwise making any of the Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibiting or preventing completion of the Transactions; (vi) we have received a tax opinion from a nationally recognized tax advisor, dated as of the closing date of the Merger, to the effect that the Distributions will qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Mergers will qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code; and (vii) the Capital Reduction and the Distribution have been completed. No assurance can be given that any of the foregoing conditions or the other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement will be satisfied or waived.
We may not be able to complete the Transactions because of a number of factors, including, among other things: (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement and (ii) any other failure by us or Nextracker to satisfy the conditions described above or other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.
37

If the Distribution, together with a series of internal distributions of the shares of Yuma Common Stock from FIUI to us through a chain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Distributions”) fail to qualify as tax-free under Sections 355 of the Code or otherwise or the Mergers fail to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, we, our subsidiaries and shareholders could incur significant tax liabilities.
We have received a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding certain matters germane to the Distributions qualifying as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code. In addition to the private letter ruling, we expect to receive an opinion from Deloitte Tax LLP to the effect that the Distributions will qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code and the Mergers will qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code. The receipt by us of the opinion from Deloitte Tax LLP is a condition to effecting the Transactions.
Although the private letter ruling generally is binding on the IRS, it is based on certain facts and assumptions, and certain representations and undertakings, from us and Nextracker establishing that certain conditions that are necessary to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code have been satisfied. Furthermore, the IRS will not rule on whether a distribution satisfies every requirement for tax-free treatment, which requirements will instead be addressed by the expected Deloitte Tax LLP opinion. The opinion that we expect to receive from Deloitte Tax LLP will conclude that all of the requirements necessary for the Distributions to qualify under Section 355 the Code will be satisfied and will be based on, among other things, the private letter ruling as to the matters addressed by the private letter ruling, certain facts and assumptions, and certain representations and undertakings, from us and Nextracker. If any of the facts, representations, assumptions or undertakings with respect to the private letter ruling or the opinion is not correct or has been violated, the private letter ruling could be revoked retroactively or modified by the IRS, and our ability to rely on the opinion could be jeopardized. The opinion will represent Deloitte Tax LLP’s judgment and will not be binding on the IRS or the courts, and the IRS or the courts may not agree with the conclusions reached in the opinion, so there can be no certainty that the IRS will not challenge the conclusions reflected in the opinion or that a court will not sustain such a challenge. In addition, the opinion will be based on current law, and cannot be relied on if current law changes with retroactive effect.
If one or more of the Distributions ultimately fails to qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code, we or one or more of our subsidiaries would recognize gain in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the Yuma Common Stock distributed on the date of the applicable taxable distribution over the tax basis in such shares of the party making the applicable distribution, which could result in significant tax liabilities for us and our subsidiaries. Additionally, we and our subsidiaries may be responsible for withholding taxes on the taxable distribution of Yuma Comma Stock, which could result in significant tax liabilities for us and our subsidiaries apart from taxable gain described immediately above. In addition, if one or more of the Distributions fails to qualify for tax-free treatment under U.S. state or local or non-U.S. law, we and our subsidiaries could incur other significant tax liabilities (including withholding taxes) under U.S. state or local or non-U.S. law. Finally, if the Distribution does not qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code, each U.S. holder of Ordinary Shares would generally be treated as receiving a taxable distribution equal to the fair market value of the Yuma Common Stock received by such U.S. holder in the Distribution.
If the Mergers ultimately fail to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, each U.S. holder of Ordinary Shares that receives Yuma Common Stock in the Distribution would generally be treated as having made a taxable disposition of their Yuma Common Stock to Nextracker and would recognize taxable gain or loss on their receipt of Class A common stock in the Mergers.
Even if the Distributions qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code, the Distributions would nonetheless be taxable to us and our subsidiaries (but not to U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares) under Section 355(e) of the Code if one or more persons acquire a 50% or greater interest (measured by vote or value) in our stock or that of Yuma’s (or a successor of either, including Nextracker after the Mergers), directly or indirectly, occurring as part of a plan or series of related transactions that includes the Distribution. For purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code, any acquisitions or issuances of our stock or the stock of Yuma (including Nextracker stock after the Mergers), directly or indirectly, within the period beginning two years before the first of the Distributions and ending two years after the last of the Distributions are generally presumed to be part of such a plan, although we or Nextracker may, depending on the facts and circumstances, be able to rebut that presumption. For purposes of this test, the Mergers will be treated as part of a plan that includes the Distributions, but it is expected that the Mergers, standing alone, will not cause the Distribution to be taxable to us under Section 355(e) of the Code because holders of Yuma Common Stock immediately after the Distribution will own at least 50.1% of the stock of Nextracker following the Mergers. However, if the IRS were to determine that another acquisition or issuance of our stock or the stock of Yuma (including Nextracker stock after the Mergers) were part of a plan or series of related transactions that included the Distribution and that triggers the application of Section 355(e) of the Code, we and our subsidiaries would recognize gain as described above. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, which will be entered into by us, Yuma and Nextracker immediately prior to the Distribution and which will govern the rights, responsibilities and obligations of such parties with respect to taxes (including taxes arising in the ordinary course of business and taxes incurred as a result of the Distributions and the Mergers), tax attributes, tax returns, tax
38

contests and certain other matters (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), Yuma and Nextracker (and their successors), on the one hand, and us, on the other hand, may be obligated, in certain cases, to indemnify the other (but not our shareholders) for taxes and certain tax-related losses that arise from the failure of the Distributions or the Mergers to qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 or 368(a) of the Code, respectively. Any such indemnification obligation likely would be substantial and likely would have a material adverse effect on the party obligated to make such payments.
The Distribution of shares of Yuma Common Stock to our shareholders and/or the subsequent issuance of shares of Class A common stock to our shareholders in exchange for shares of Yuma Common Stock pursuant to the Merger may be prohibited under the securities laws or regulations of any other applicable laws of certain resident jurisdictions of our shareholders, and if any of the foregoing offer of securities is prohibited to such shareholders (the “Affected shareholders”), we may, but we are not required to, seek an exemption or determine another form of return of capital in lieu of distributing such shares of Yuma Common Stock in connection with the Distribution or shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger. In the event we decline to make any modifications to accommodate the securities laws or regulations of any other applicable laws of such jurisdictions, the Affected shareholders will not be entitled to the shares of Yuma Common Stock in connection with the Distribution, the shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger or the cash equivalent for such shares of Yuma Common Stock or shares of Class A common stock.
As of September 29, 2023, there were 437,913,956 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding held by 2,828 shareholders. We have generally not undertaken an analysis of whether the local securities laws or regulations of any other applicable laws or regulations or any other applicable laws of any resident jurisdiction of each of our shareholder prohibits or restricts (either absolutely or subject to various securities laws requirements, whether legal or administrative, being complied with) the Distribution of shares of Yuma Common Stock or issuance of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger. There is no assurance that the receipt of shares of Yuma Common Stock by the Affected shareholders in the Distribution and/or the subsequent receipt of shares of Class A common stock in the Merger, is permissible under the local securities laws or regulations or any other applicable laws of each resident jurisdiction of all our shareholders. Our shareholders are required to inform themselves of and to observe any such prohibition or restriction at their own expense and without any liability to us.
Under the terms of the Distribution, there is no entitlement to receive cash in lieu of shares of Yuma Common Stock and consequently shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger, and under the terms of the Merger (other than to account for fractional shares of Class A common stock under the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement)), there is no entitlement to receive cash in lieu of shares of Class A common stock. For such jurisdictions, we may choose to seek an exemption or determine another form of return of capital in lieu of distributing shares of Yuma Common Stock or shares of Class A common stock, but we are not required to do so. If we decline to make modifications to the terms of the Distribution or the terms of the Merger required by such jurisdictions, and if certain of our shareholders are a resident in those jurisdictions or if certain of our shareholders are otherwise prohibited by local laws or regulations and/or any other applicable laws from accepting the shares of Yuma Common Stock in connection with the Distribution or shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger, such shareholders will not receive such shares of Yuma Common Stock in connection with the Distribution or shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Merger and may lose value in their investment in us as a result. In such scenario, such shareholders shall not have any claim whatsoever against us, Yuma and/or Nextracker in connection therewith.
Geopolitical uncertainty, including arising from the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial performance.
We have facilities across the globe including in Israel and Ukraine. If these facilities were to be damaged, destroyed or otherwise unable to operate, whether due to war, acts of hostility, or terrorist acts, such an event could jeopardize our ability to develop, manufacture and deliver certain products and adversely affect our operations and results of operations. Our operations have been, and could continue to be, disrupted by the absence of employees called to active duty to perform military service. The Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Israel-Hamas war, and other hostilities or armed conflicts, or the interruption or curtailment of trade or transport between the countries where our facilities are located and their respective trading partners, could adversely affect our operations and results of operations. Further, political, economic and military instability in the regions where are facilities are located may lead to disruptions and instability in global markets, supply chains and industries that could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
