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 December 31, 2023, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, redeemable noncontrolling interest and shareholders’ equity for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 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 the Company 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
This 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 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.

Nextracker Spin-off
On January 2, 2024, the Company completed its previously announced spin-off of its remaining interests in Nextracker (the "Spin-off") to Flex shareholders on a pro-rata basis based on the number ordinary shares of Flex held by each shareholder of Flex (the “Distribution”) as of December 29, 2023, which was the record date of the Distribution, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 7, 2023. Refer to note 17, “Subsequent Events” to the condensed consolidated financial statement for further details.
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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 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.

Table of Contents
The third quarters for fiscal years 2024 and 2023 ended on December 31 of each year and are comprised of 93 and 92 days, respectively. The Company's first three quarters for fiscal years 2024 and 2023 both are comprised of 275 days.
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”), 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 December 31, 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 geopolitical conflicts (including the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas war, and other geopolitical conflicts), 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 Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 "Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative", which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standard Codification (the "Codification"). This ASU will become effective on the date the SEC removes the applicable disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, with early adoption prohibited. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not be become effective for any entity. The Company expects the new guidance will have an immaterial impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements, and intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 "Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures", which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted.

Company expects the new guidance will have an immaterial impact on its consolidated financial statements, and intends to adopt the guidance prospectively when it becomes effective in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026.
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 rollforward of the Company's outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under its supplier finance programs for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 is as follows.

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 prior to the Spin-off.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes the Company’s share-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans:

| Three-Month Periods Ended |  | Nine-Month Periods Ended

The 2017 Plan
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, the Company granted approximately 4.9 million restricted share unit ("RSU") awards. Of this amount, approximately 3.0 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 December 31, 2023, approximately 12 million unvested RSU awards under the 2017 Plan were outstanding, of which vesting for a targeted amount of approximately 1.2 million shares is contingent on meeting certain market conditions, and vesting for a targeted amount of approximately 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 approximately 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 approximately 2.4 million based on the achievement levels. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, approximately 2.3 million shares vested in connection with the awards with market conditions granted in fiscal year 2021.
As of December 31, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSU awards under the 2017 Plan, was approximately $170 million, and will be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.0 years.
The 2022 Nextracker Plan
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, Nextracker awarded approximately 2.1 million equity-based compensation awards to its employees under the 2022 Nextracker Plan, which included approximately 0.5 million option awards, approximately 1.2 million RSU ("NRSU") awards and approximately 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 December 31, 2023, approximately 6.6 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 3.6 million shares is contingent on meeting certain performance conditions.
Total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested awards under the 2022 Nextracker Plan was approximately $93 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.3 years. After the Spin-off, the Company will not include stock-based compensation expense for the awards granted under the 2022 Nextracker Plan in its consolidated financial statements. Approximately $38 million of expense was recognized for equity-based compensation awards granted under the 2022 Nextracker Plan for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023.
Modifications of Share-Based Awards
In January 2024, in connection with the Nextracker Spin-off, the Company was required to make certain adjustments to the number of share-based compensation awards under the 2017 Plan using a conversion ratio designed to preserve the intrinsic value of the awards to the holders immediately prior to the Spin-off. Adjustments to the outstanding share-based compensation awards are not expected to result in additional material compensation expense. All outstanding restricted share unit awards for employees transferred to Nextracker were canceled in connection with the Spin-off.

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 December 31, 2023, the aggregate notional amount of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts was $9.8 billion as summarized below:

|  | Notional Contract Value in USD

Cash Flow Hedges |  |  |  |

As of December 31, 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 December 31, 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 gain was $32 million as of December 31, 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 other assets and long-term other liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. 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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 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 December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $7 million and $9 million, respectively. The tax impacts on the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $2 million and immaterial, 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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 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 $0.9 billion and $0.8 billion as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. For the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, total accounts receivable sold to certain third-party banking institutions was approximately $2.6 billion and $2.6 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 December 31, 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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 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 $87 million based on the exchange rate as of December 31, 2023). The Company successfully defeated one of the six assessments in September 2019 (totaling approximately 61 million Brazilian reals or USD $13 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 $54 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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 10.7 million and 30.8 million shares at an aggregate purchase price of $275 million and $781 million, respectively, and retired all of these shares. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, 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 December 31, 2023, shares in the aggregate amount of $1.5 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. Following the Spin-off, the Company's operating and reportable segments are Flex Agility Solutions and Flex Reliability Solutions. 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, 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
In October 2023, the Company’s management committed to targeted restructuring activities to improve operational efficiencies by reducing excess workforce capacity. During the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized approximately $74 million and $100 million of restructuring charges, respectively, most of which related to employee severance.

16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Prior to the Spin-off, the Company controlled Nextracker Inc. ("Nextracker") through its holding of Class B common stock that did not participate in the earnings of Nextracker. As such, the shareholders of the equity at risk in Nextracker (the Class A common stock shareholders) did not have the power to direct the key activities of Nextracker and consequently Nextracker was a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Company had the ability to control Nextracker's activities through its control of 51.4% and 61.4% of the voting rights of Nextracker as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. The Company also had 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 had been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. As such, the Company continued to consolidate Nextracker and the interests in Nextracker held by third parties are presented as a noncontrolling interest prior to the Spin-off. 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 December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, noncontrolling interest was $480 million and $355 million, respectively. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $36 million and $239 million for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was zero for both the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 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 December 31, 2023. Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest was zero for both the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023. Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest was $7 million and $19 million for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 2, 2024, Flex completed the Spin-off of our remaining interests in Nextracker to Flex shareholders on a pro rata basis based on the number ordinary shares of Flex held by each shareholder of Flex as of December 29, 2023, which was the record date of the Distribution. Under the previously disclosed terms of the Spin-off, Flex shareholders received approximately 0.17 shares of Nextracker Class A common stock for every Flex ordinary share held as of the record date of the Distribution. Flex shareholders received cash in lieu of any fractional shares.
As a result of the completion of the Spin-off, Nextracker became a fully independent public company, Flex no longer directly or indirectly holds any shares of Nextracker common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Nextracker common stock and Flex will no longer consolidate Nextracker into its future financial results. Following the Spin-off, Flex ordinary shares continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “FLEX” and shares of Nextracker Class A common stock continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “NXT”.
The historical results of Nextracker will be reported in Flex's consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations beginning in Flex's fourth quarter ending March 31, 2024.
Prior to or in connection with the Spin-off, Flex entered into various agreements to effect the Spin-off and provide a framework for the relationship between Flex and Nextracker following the Spin-off, including a Separation Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement, a Transition Services Agreement, as well as agreements governing future trading relationships.

OVERVIEW
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 and 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 December 31, 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
◦Consumer Devices, including mobile and high velocity consumer devices.
•Flex Reliability Solutions ("FRS"), which is comprised of the following end markets:
◦Automotive, including next generation mobility, autonomous, connectivity, electrification, and smart technologies
◦Health Solutions, including medical devices, medical equipment and drug delivery
◦Industrial, including capital equipment, industrial devices, and renewables and grid edge.
•Nextracker, the leading provider of intelligent, integrated solar tracker and software solutions that are used in utility-scale and ground-mounted distributed generation solar projects around the world. Nextracker's products enable solar panels to follow the sun’s movement across the sky and optimize plant performance.
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.

Table of Contents
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.
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.
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, including disruptions in international commerce as a result of attacks on shipping vessels in the Red Sea. 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.
Russian Invasion of Ukraine and Israel-Hamas War
We continue to monitor and respond to the 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 their 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, continued to 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”).
On January 2, 2024, we completed the Spin-off of our remaining interests in Nextracker to Flex shareholders on a pro rata basis based on the number ordinary shares of Flex held by each shareholder of Flex (the “Distribution”) as of December 29, 2023, which was the record date of the Distribution. Under the previously disclosed terms of the Spin-off, Flex shareholders received approximately 0.17 shares of Nextracker Class A common stock for every Flex ordinary share held as of the record date of the Distribution. Flex shareholders received cash in lieu of any fractional shares.
As a result of the completion of the Spin-off, Nextracker became a fully independent public company, we no longer directly or indirectly hold any shares of Nextracker common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Nextracker common stock and we will no longer consolidate Nextracker into our future financial results. Flex ordinary shares continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “FLEX” and shares of Nextracker Class A common stock continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “NXT”.
The historical results of Nextracker will be reported in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations beginning in our fourth quarter ending March 31, 2024.

Also, prior to or in connection with the Spin-off, we entered into various agreements to effect the Spin-off and provide a framework for the relationship between us and Nextracker following the Spin-off, including a Separation Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement, a Transition Services Agreement, as well as agreements governing future trading relationships.
Business Overview
We are one of the world's largest providers of global supply chain solutions, with revenues of $21.9 billion for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 and $30.3 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. We have established an extensive network of manufacturing facilities in the world's major consumer and enterprise markets (Asia, the Americas, and Europe) to serve the growing outsourcing needs of both multinational and regional customers. We design, build, ship, and service consumer and enterprise products for our customers through a network of over 100 facilities in approximately 30 countries across four continents. Prior to the Spin-off, we also provided intelligent, integrated solar tracker and software solutions used in utility-scale and ground-mounted distributed generation solar projects around the world. The following tables set forth the relative percentages and dollar amounts of net sales by region and by country, and net property and equipment by country, based on the location of our manufacturing sites:

We believe that the combination of our extensive open innovation platform solutions, design and engineering services, advanced supply chain management solutions and services, significant scale and global presence, and manufacturing campuses in low-cost geographic areas provide us with a competitive advantage and strong differentiation in the market for designing, manufacturing and servicing consumer and enterprise products for leading multinational and regional customers. Specifically, we offer our customers the ability to simplify their global product development, manufacturing process, and after sales services, and enable them to meaningfully accelerate their time to market and cost savings.
Our operating results are affected by a number of factors, including the following:
29

Table of Contents
•global economic conditions, including inflationary pressures, currency volatility, slower growth or recession, higher interest rates, and geopolitical uncertainty (including as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war);
•the mix of the manufacturing services we are providing, the number, size, and complexity of new manufacturing programs, the degree to which we utilize our manufacturing capacity, seasonal demand, and other factors;
•the effects on our business when our customers are not successful in marketing their products, or when their products do not gain widespread commercial acceptance;
•our ability to achieve commercially viable production yields and to manufacture components in commercial quantities to the performance specifications demanded by our customers;
•the effects that current credit and market conditions (including as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war) could have on the liquidity and financial condition of our customers and suppliers, including any impact on their ability to meet their contractual obligations;
•the impacts on our business due to component shortages, disruptions in transportation or other supply chain related constraints including disruptions in international commerce as a result of attacks on shipping vessels in the Red Sea;
•exposure to infectious disease, epidemics and pandemics on our business operations in geographic locations impacted by an outbreak and on the business operations of our customers and suppliers;
•the effects on our business due to certain customers' products having short product lifecycles;
•our customers' ability to cancel or delay orders or change production quantities;
•our customers' decisions to choose internal manufacturing instead of outsourcing for their product requirements;
•integration of acquired businesses and facilities;
•increased labor costs due to adverse labor conditions in the markets we operate;
•changes in tax legislation; and
•changes in trade regulations and treaties.
We are also subject to other risks as outlined in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 and in Part II, Item 1A of this report on Form 10-Q.
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 geopolitical conflicts (including the Russian invasion of 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, the Israel-Hamas war, and other geopolitical conflicts. 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.
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 December 31, 2023 totaled $7.1 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.7 billion, or 8% from $7.8 billion during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. Net sales for our FAS segment decreased approximately $0.6 billion, or 14% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by significant decreases in our Lifestyle and Consumer Devices businesses, and a mid single-digit percentage decrease in our Communications, Enterprise and Cloud ("CEC") business due to softer demand in consumer end markets and difficult year-over-year comparisons in CEC. Net sales for our FRS segment decreased approximately 0.3 billion, or 8% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by a high-teen percentage decrease in our Industrial business due to difficult year-over year comparisons and lower customer demand, partially offset by a low single-digit increase in our Automotive business due to higher customer demand. Net sales for our Health Solutions business remained relatively flat. Net sales for our Nextracker segment increased approximately $0.2 billion, or 38% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by an increase in gigawatts delivered. Net sales decreased $0.8 billion to $2.0 billion in Asia, decreased $0.2 billion to $1.3 billion in Europe, and increased $0.3 billion to $3.8 billion in the Americas.

Net sales during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 totaled $21.9 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $1.0 billion, or 4% from $22.9 billion during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. Net sales for our FAS segment decreased approximately $1.3 billion, or 11% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by a significant decrease in our Consumer Devices business, a high-teen 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 $0.1 billion, or 1% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by a high single-digit percentage increase in our Automotive business and a mid single-digit percentage increase in our Health Solutions business which benefited from ramps across various end markets, offset by a mid single-digit percentage decrease in our Industrial business due to lower customer demand. Net sales for our Nextracker segment increased approximately $0.4 billion, or 27% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by the same factors as noted in the three-month period discussion above. Net sales decreased $1.3 billion to $6.7 billion in Asia, decreased $0.4 billion to $4.3 billion in Europe, and increased $0.8 billion to $10.9 billion in the Americas.
Our ten largest customers during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 accounted for approximately 35% and 33% of net sales, respectively. Our ten largest customers during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2022 accounted for approximately 35% of net sales. No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales during the three or nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 or December 31, 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 December 31, 2023 totaled $6.4 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $0.8 billion, or 11% from $7.2 billion during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. The lower cost of sales for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 was primarily driven by decreased consolidated sales of $0.7 billion or 8%. Cost of sales in FAS for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 decreased approximately $0.5 billion, or 15% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, which is relatively in line with the overall 14% decrease in FAS revenue during the same period primarily as a result of lower revenue in our Lifestyle, Consumer Devices, and CEC businesses. Cost of sales in FRS for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 decreased approximately $0.3 billion, or 10% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, which is in line with the overall decrease in FRS revenue during the same period, primarily as a result of lower revenue in our Industrial business. Cost of sales in our Nextracker segment for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 increased approximately $66 million, or 15% from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to the 38% increase in Nextracker revenue during the same period, offset by improved profitability resulting from a decline in freight and logistics costs and improved operational execution.
Cost of sales during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 totaled $19.9 billion, representing a decrease of approximately $1.2 billion, or 6% from $21.2 billion during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. The lower cost of sales for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 was primarily driven by decreased consolidated sales of $1.0 billion or 4%. Cost of sales in FAS for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 decreased approximately $1.3 billion, or 11% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, which is aligned with the overall 11% 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 nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 increased approximately $22 million, or 0.3% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, which is in line with the overall 1% increase in FRS revenue during the same period, primarily due to the drivers noted in the discussion above for net sales for the nine-month period. Cost of sales in our Nextracker segment for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 increased approximately $97 million, or 8% from the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by the same factors noted above in the three-month period discussion.
Gross profit
Gross profit is affected by fluctuations 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 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.
32

Gross profit during the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 increased $59 million to $0.6 billion, or 9.0% of net sales, from $0.6 billion, or 7.5% of net sales, during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. Gross margin improved 150 basis points during the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to favorable mix with growth in our higher-margin Nextracker segment, partially offset by an increase in restructuring costs.
Gross profit during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 increased $0.2 billion to $1.9 billion, or 8.6% of net sales, from $1.7 billion, or 7.5% of net sales, during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. Gross margin improved 110 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, 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 |  | Nine-Month Periods Ended
| December 31, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| (In millions)
Segment income: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Flex Agility Solutions | $ | 174 |  |  | 5.0 | % |  | $ | 181 |  |  | 4.5 | % |  | $ | 488 |  |  | 4.6 | % |  | $ | 523 |  |  | 4.4 | %
Flex Reliability Solutions | 159 |  |  | 5.4 | % |  | 143 |  |  | 4.4 | % |  | 495 |  |  | 5.2 | % |  | 465 |  |  | 4.9 | %
Nextracker | 162 |  |  | 22.8 | % |  | 60 |  |  | 11.7 | % |  | 356 |  |  | 20.2 | % |  | 133 |  |  | 9.6 | %

FAS segment margin increased approximately 50 basis points, to 5.0%, for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, from 4.5% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. The margin increase was primarily due to strong execution against new project ramps and product mix. The FAS segment margin increased approximately 20 basis points, to 4.6% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, from 4.4% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. This was primarily due to strong execution and product mix.
FRS segment margin increased approximately 100 basis points, to 5.4% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, from 4.4% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. The margin increase was primarily driven by improving margins in our Automotive and Health Solutions businesses due to increased productivity partially offset by lower sales in our Industrial business. FRS segment margin increased approximately 30 basis points, to 5.2% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 from 4.9% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. This was driven by improving margins in our Health Solutions business due to increased productivity and the effect of reduction in inflation recoveries, partially offset by lower sales in our Industrial business.
Nextracker segment margin increased approximately 1,110 basis points, to 22.8% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, from 11.7% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. The margin increase was driven by disciplined pricing, freight savings, and favorable cost absorption with increased revenue. Nextracker segment margin increased approximately 1,060 basis points, to 20.2% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, from 9.6% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022. The increase in Nextracker segment margin during the nine-month period is due to the same factors noted in the discussion above for the three-month period.
Restructuring charges
In October, 2023, we committed to targeted restructuring activities to improve operational efficiencies by reducing excess workforce capacity. During the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023, we recognized approximately $74 million and $100 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 3.7% of net sales, during the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, increasing $21 million from approximately $0.2 billion or 3.1% of net sales, during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022. SG&A was $0.8 billion, or 3.7% of net sales, during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, increasing $77 million from $0.7 billion or 3.2% of net sales, during the nine-month period
33

ended December 31, 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 December 31, 2023, from $19 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, and decreased to $54 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, from $62 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to certain intangibles now being fully amortized.
Interest, net
Interest, net was an expense of $36 million during the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 compared to an expense of $54 million during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to higher interest income, and lower bank borrowings compared to the prior year period.
Interest, net was an expense of $112 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 compared to an expense of $150 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to the same drivers noted in the discussion above for the three-month period.
Other charges, net
Other charges, net remained flat at an expense of $5 million during both the three-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, primarily due to foreign exchange transaction loss.
Other charges, net was an expense of $32 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 compared to an expense of $2 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to higher foreign exchange transaction losses compared to the prior year period.
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 24% and 2% for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023, and 10% and 13% for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 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-month period ended December 31, 2023 was significantly higher than the effective tax rate for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to a $21 million reduction of previously recorded deferred tax assets of Nextracker with the charge being fully attributable to noncontrolling interests. The effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 was significantly lower than the effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended December 31, 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 December 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.8 billion and bank and other borrowings of approximately $3.4 billion. As of December 31, 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
34

that is due to mature in February 2028, under which we had no borrowings outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, we were in 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 nine-month period ended December 31, 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 $0.6 billion during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by $0.9 billion of net income for the period plus $0.5 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 $0.3 billion to $5.5 billion as of December 31, 2023, from $5.2 billion as of March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of the effect of a decrease in accounts payable of $0.6 billion and working capital advances of $0.4 billion partially offset by a reduction in inventory of $0.7 billion.
Cash used in investing activities was $0.4 billion during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023. This was primarily driven by $0.4 billion of net capital expenditures for property and equipment to continue expanding capabilities and capacity in support of primarily our expanding CEC, Automotive, and Industrial 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 nine-month periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was an inflow of $0.2 billion and an inflow 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:

| Nine-Month Periods Ended
| December 31, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| (In millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 647 |  |  | $ | 500 |
Purchases of property and equipment | (449) |  |  | (455) |
Proceeds from the disposition of property and equipment | 21 |  |  | 20 |
Adjusted free cash flow | $ | 219 |  |  | $ | 65 |

Cash used by financing activities was $0.8 billion during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily driven by $0.8 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 December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, approximately 49% 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.
35

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.
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 a commercial paper program which provides short-term financing under which there were no borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 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 nine-month period ended December 31, 2023, we paid $781 million to repurchase shares under the current and prior repurchase plans at an average price of $25.32 per share. As of December 31, 2023, shares in the aggregate amount of $1.5 billion were available to be repurchased under the current plan.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
Information regarding our long-term debt payments, operating lease payments, capital lease payments and other commitments is provided in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
There were no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2023.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

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 and in subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the additional risk factors set forth below 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:
If the Distribution, or any distribution in the series of internal distributions of the shares of Yuma Common Stock from Flextronics International USA, Inc. (“FIUI”) to us through a chain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries (together with the Distribution, the “Distributions”), fail to qualify as tax-free under Sections 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (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.
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”), on January 2, 2024, we effectuated a distribution of the remaining interests that we owned in Nextracker to all our shareholders through the following transactions (together, the “Transactions”): (i) a court-approved capital reduction 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 Merger Sub with and into Yuma, 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 were automatically converted 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, which was undertaken on January 2, 2024 shortly following the completion of the Merger (together with the Merger, the “Mergers”).
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 have received 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 was 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 are instead addressed by the Deloitte Tax LLP opinion. The opinion that we have received from Deloitte Tax LLP concludes that all of the requirements necessary for the Distributions to qualify under Section 355 the Code have been satisfied and was 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 represents Deloitte Tax LLP’s judgment and is not 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 was based on then-current law, and cannot be relied on if such law changes with retroactive effect.
37

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 Distributions 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 Distributions. 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 Distributions to be taxable to us under Section 355(e) of the Code because holders of Yuma Common Stock immediately after the Distributions 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 Distributions 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 was entered into by us, Yuma and Nextracker on January 2, 2024 immediately prior to the Distributions and which governs 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 contests and certain other matters (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), us, Yuma and Nextracker (and their successors) are barred from taking certain actions (or failing to take certain actions) that could adversely affect the tax-free treatment of the Distributions or the Mergers, subject to certain exceptions. Yuma and Nextracker (and their successors), on the one hand, and us, on the other hand, may also be obligated under the Tax Matters Agreement, 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.
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, the attacks on shipping vessels in the Red Sea, 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 around the world 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.
