1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
CDW Corporation (“Parent”), a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500 Index, is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to business, government, education, and healthcare customers in the United States (“US”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), and Canada. The Company’s broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience, and security.
Throughout this report, each of the terms the “Company” and “CDW” refer to Parent and its subsidiaries, collectively.
Parent has two 100% owned subsidiaries, CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation. CDW LLC is an Illinois limited liability company that, together with its 100% owned subsidiaries, holds all material assets and conducts all business activities and operations of the Company. CDW Finance Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed for the sole purpose of acting as co-issuer of certain debt obligations and does not hold any material assets or engage in any business activities or operations.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statem ents as of March 31, 2026, and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The unaudited results of operations for such interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “December 31, 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements”). The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparing these Consolidated Financial Statements were applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in the December 31, 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU removes stage-based capitalization rules for internal-use software to increase the operability of the recognition guidance considering different methods of software development. The ASU is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, modified, or retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU provides a practical expedient to simplify the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from

transactions accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU is effective for annual periods, including interim reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. Entities that elect the practical expedient should apply the amendments in this ASU on a prospective basis. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2026, and elected to apply the practical expedient, which did not have any impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-240). This ASU requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about specific natural expense categories in the notes to the financial statements. The ASU is effective for all public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Entities should apply the amendments on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the ASU will have on its disclosures.
3. Accounts Receivable and Contract Balances
Accounts Receivable
The following table details the total accounts receivable recognized and the related classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

|  | March 31, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025
Accounts receivable, current(1) |  | $ | 5,046.7 |  |  | $ | 5,014.9 |
Unbilled accounts receivable, current(1) |  | 1,421.7 |  |  | 1,297.5 |
Unbilled accounts receivable, noncurrent(2) |  | 1,274.2 |  |  | 1,245.4 |
Total accounts receivable |  | $ | 7,742.6 |  |  | $ | 7,557.8 |

(1)Accounts receivable, current and Unbilled accounts receivable, current are presented within Accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)Unbilled accounts receivable, noncurrent is presented net of allowance for credit losses herein and is presented within Accounts receivable and other assets, noncurrent on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
From time to time, the Company transfers certain accounts receivable, without recourse, to third-party financial companies as a method to reduce the Company’s credit exposure and accelerate cash collections. Such transfers are recognized as a sale and the related accounts receivable are derecognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheets upon receipt of payment from the third-party financing company. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company sold approximately $145 million and $191 million of accounts receivable, respectively.
Contract Balances
Contract assets and liabilities represent the difference in the timing of revenue recognition from receipt of cash from customers. Contract assets represent revenue recognized on performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied for which the Company has no unconditional right to consideration. Contract liabilities consist of payments received from customers, or such consideration that is contractually due, in advance of providing the product or performing services. The following table details information about the Company’s contract balances recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

|  | March 31, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025
Contract assets(1) |  | $ | 183.5 |  |  | $ | 159.0 |
Contract liabilities(2)(3) |  | $ | 646.6 |  |  | $ | 565.0 |

(1)Contract assets are presented within Prepaid expenses and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)Includes $49 million and $31 million of long-term contract liabilities that are presented within Long-term liabilities - Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
(3)For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $283 million and $201 million related to its contract liabilities that were included in the beginning balance of the respective periods.

A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The following table represents the total transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2026 related to non-cancelable managed and professional services contracts whereby the Company is acting as the principal and the duration is longer than 12 months, which is expected to be recognized over future periods.

|  | Within 1 Year |  | Years 1-2 |  | Years 2-3 |  | Thereafter
Remaining performance obligations |  | $ | 142.7 |  |  | $ | 65.5 |  |  | $ | 25.7 |  |  | $ | 6.4 |

4. Goodwill
In connection with the segment realignment effective January 1, 2026, as described in Note 11 (Segment Information), the Company reassessed its reporting units. Goodwill previously allocated to the Corporate and Small Business reporting units was primarily assigned to the Commercial reporting unit. Goodwill previously allocated to the Public reporting unit was allocated to the Government, Education, and Commercial reporting units using a relative fair value approach. The Company performed a quantitative impairment analysis of goodwill under the new reporting unit structure as of January 1, 2026. Based on the results of the impairment analysis performed, the Company determined that the fair values of all reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values and that no impairment existed.
5. Inventory Financing Agreements
The Company has entered into agreements with financial institutions to facilitate the purchase of inventory from designated suppliers under certain terms and conditions to enhance liquidity. Under these agreements, the Company receives extended payment terms and agrees to pay the financial institutions a stated amount of confirmed invoices from its designated suppliers. The Company does not incur any interest or other incremental expenses associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. Additionally, the Company has no involvement in establishing the terms or conditions of the arrangements between its suppliers and the financial institutions.
The amounts outstanding under these agreements as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were $356 million and $353 million, respectively, and are separately presented as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The majority of such outstanding amounts relates to a floorplan sub-facility that is incorporated in the Company’s Revolving Loan Facility, as defined within Note 6 (Debt). A portion of the Company’s availability under the Revolving Loan Facility is reserved to cover the obligation to pay the financial institution. For additional information regarding the Revolving Loan Facility, see Note 6 (Debt).

As of March 31, 2026, the Company is in compliance with the covenants under its credit agreements and indentures.
Senior Credit Facility
The Company has a credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Facility”) consisting of a five‑year senior unsecured revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) and a five‑year senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) with a variable interest rate. The interest rate for the Senior Credit Facility is based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin based on the Company’s senior unsecured rating.
The Company can draw tranches from the Revolving Loan Facility denominated in US dollars, British pounds, Canadian dollars, or Euros. The Revolving Loan Facility is used by the Company for borrowings, issuances of letters of credit, and floorplan financing. As of March 31, 2026, the Company could have borrowed up to an additional $1.9 billion under the Revolving Loan Facility. As of March 31, 2026, the Revolving Loan Facility had $363 million reserved for the floorplan sub-facility.
No mandatory payments are required on the principal amount of the Term Loan Facility until its maturity date on December 17, 2030.
Unsecured Senior Notes
The unsecured senior notes have a fixed interest rate, which is paid semi-annually.
Receivable Financing
The receivable financing liability primarily relates to proceeds from third-party financial institutions on future accounts receivable from customer contracts. While the terms of such agreements may be on a non-recourse basis, the related revenue had not been recognized and no accounts receivable existed at the time the proceeds were received.

CDW CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
Accordingly, the proceeds from these arrangements are recognized as a liability, which is subsequently settled through collections from the related customer contracts as revenue is recognized. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company received $12 million of proceeds under these agreements.
Fair Value
The fair values of the unsecured senior notes were estimated using quoted market prices for identical liabilities that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets. The fair value of the Term Loan Facility was estimated using dealer quotes and other market observable inputs for comparable liabilities. The unsecured senior notes and Term Loan Facility were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Revolving Loan Facility approximates fair value.
The approximate fair values and related carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities and excluding unamortized discount and unamortized debt issuance costs, were as follows:

|  | March 31, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025
Fair value |  | $ | 5,483.9 |  |  | $ | 5,552.5 |
Carrying value |  | $ | 5,664.7 |  |  | $ | 5,655.3 |

7. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Derivative Instruments
The Company may use derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The following sections detail the Company’s derivative financial instruments.
Interest Rate Collars
The Company’s variable interest rate debt creates interest rate risk. The Company has interest rate collar agreements that provide for a contractually specified interest rate cap and an interest rate floor based on SOFR. The Company receives payment from the counterparty if SOFR is greater than the cap or pays the counterparty if SOFR is below the floor. If SOFR is between the floor and cap, no payment is due to either party. There were no new interest rate collar agreements executed during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the interest rate collar agreements were classified within Current liabilities - Other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for which the fair value was not material. The total notional amount of the interest rate collar agreements was $400 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, which will mature on September 30, 2026.
The fair values of the Company’s interest rate collar agreements are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of the interest rate collar agreements is derived using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash receipts or cash disbursements that would occur if variable interest rates rise above or fall below the strike rates of the interest rate cap and interest rate floor, respectively. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the interest rate collar agreements, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including SOFR curves and implied volatilities. The Company also incorporates insignificant credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. The counterparty credit spreads are based on publicly available credit information obtained from a third-party credit data provider.
The interest rate collars are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in the fair value of derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) and are subsequently reclassified into Interest expense, net in the period when the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the changes in fair value for the effective portion of the derivative financial instruments and the reclassification from AOCL to Interest expense, net were not material.

(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
8. Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $84 million and $79 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective income tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 26.2% and 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes and tax shortfalls on equity-based compensation, partially offset by tax credits. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was higher than the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes.
9. Earnings Per Share
The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share is Net income. The denominator for basic earnings per share is the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period.
A reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding is as follows:

|  |  | Three Months Ended March 31,
|  |  |  |  | 2026 |  | 2025
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding |  |  |  |  | 129.0 |  | 132.5 |
Effect of dilutive securities(1) |  |  |  |  | 0.5 |  | 1.0 |
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding(2) |  |  |  |  | 129.5 |  | 133.5 |

(1)The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units, and Coworker Stock Purchase Plan units is reflected in the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.
(2)There were fewer than 0.7 million potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Inclusion of these common shares in diluted weighted-average shares outstanding would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is party to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business, which include commercial, intellectual property, employment, tort, and other litigation matters. The Company is also subject to audit by federal, state, international, national, provincial, and local authorities, and by various partners, group purchasing organizations, and customers, including government agencies, relating to purchases and sales under various contracts. In addition, the Company is subject to indemnification claims under various contracts. From time to time, certain customers of the Company file voluntary petitions for reorganization or liquidation under the US bankruptcy laws or similar laws of the jurisdictions for the Company’s business activities outside of the US. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company could be considered preference items and subject to return to the bankruptcy administrator.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company does not believe that there is a reasonable possibility that any material loss exceeding the amounts already recognized for these proceedings and matters, if any, has been incurred. However, the ultimate resolutions of these proceedings and matters are inherently unpredictable. As such, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements could be adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these proceedings or matters.
The Company received a Civil Investigative Demand, issued by the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) on June 11, 2024, in connection with a False Claims Act investigation. The DOJ requested information relating to bids that the Company submitted for contracts funded in whole or in part by the Schools and Libraries Program (E-Rate Program). The Company provided information in response to the CID in November 2024. The Company is unaware of any further activity in the matter and therefore is unable to assess the probability of any particular outcome or financial impact at this time.

11. Segment Information
Effective January 1, 2026, the Company realigned its customer‑facing sales organization to better align with the evolving needs of its customer end markets. As a result of this realignment, the Company revised its internal reporting structure, which changed the manner in which the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance, allocates resources, and manages operations. Following the realignment, the Company has three reportable segments: Commercial, Government, and Education. In addition, there are two other operating segments: CDW UK and CDW Canada, both of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”).
The Commercial reportable segment primarily serves corporate, financial services, and healthcare customers in the US, each of which represents a unique customer channel. The Government reportable segment primarily serves federal, state, and local agencies in the US, along with certain private sector business customers that primarily support or interact with government agencies. The Education reportable segment primarily serves primary, secondary, and higher education institutions in the US. Historically reported segment financial information has been recast to reflect the new segment structure.
The accounting policies used to determine profit and loss measures are consistent across all reportable segments and on a consolidated basis. Additionally, the CODM reviews key profit and loss measures for each reportable segment consistently based on both segment Gross profit and Operating income. Specifically, the CODM reviews Gross profit by segment to establish forecasting and evaluate profitability and Operating income by segment to make investment strategy and performance-based compensation decisions. Segment information for Total assets and capital expenditures is not presented given that such information is not used in measuring segment performance or allocating resources between segments.
The Company has centralized logistics and headquarters functions that provide services to the segments. The logistics function includes purchasing, distribution, and fulfillment services to support the Commercial, Government, and Education segments. As a result, costs and intercompany charges associated with the logistics function are fully allocated to all of these segments based on a percentage of certain sales metrics. The centralized headquarters function provides services in areas such as accounting, information technology, marketing, legal, and coworker services. Headquarters function costs that are not allocated to the segments are included under the heading of “Headquarters” in the tables below. The Company updated its methodology for allocating headquarters function costs to better distinguish between costs that directly support the operating segments and costs that are enterprise‑wide in nature, consistent with how those costs are managed and reviewed by the CODM. These costs were allocated to the segments based on activity-based drivers. The updated methodology was applied to historical periods presented, resulting in an adjusted amount of operating expense retained by Headquarters.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “we,” “us,” “the Company,” “our,” “CDW,” and similar terms refer to CDW Corporation and its subsidiaries. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion.
Overview
CDW Corporation (“Parent”), a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500 Index, is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to business, government, education, and healthcare customers in the United States (“US”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), and Canada. Our broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience, and security.
Effective January 1, 2026, we realigned our customer-facing sales organization to better meet the evolving needs of our customer end markets. As a result, we have the following three reportable segments: Commercial, Government, and Education. Our Commercial reportable segment primarily serves corporate, financial services, and healthcare customers in the US, each of which represents a unique customer channel. Customers previously included in the Small Business segment are included across the customer channels within our Commercial reportable segment. Our Government reportable segment primarily serves federal, state, and local agencies in the US, along with certain private sector business customers that primarily support or interact with government agencies. The Education reportable segment primarily serves primary, secondary, and higher education institutions in the US. CDW UK and CDW Canada remain unchanged in this reporting structure, in an all other category (“Other”).
We are vendor, technology, and consumption model unbiased, with a solutions portfolio including more than 100,000 products and services from more than 1,000 leading and emerging brands. Our solutions are delivered in physical, virtual, and cloud-based environments through approximately 10,400 customer-facing coworkers, including sellers, highly-skilled specialists, and engineers. We are a leading sales channel partner for many original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers, and cloud providers (collectively, our “vendor partners”), and wholesale distributors, whose products we sell or include in the solutions we offer. We provide our vendor partners with a cost-effective way to reach customers and deliver a consistent brand experience through our established end-market coverage, technical expertise, and extensive customer access.
We may sell all or only select products that our vendor partners offer. Each vendor partner agreement provides for specific terms and conditions, which may include one or more of the following: product return privileges, price protection policies, purchase discounts, and vendor incentive programs, such as purchase or sales rebates and cooperative advertising reimbursements. We also resell software for major software publishers. Our agreements with software publishers allow the end-user customer to acquire software or licensed products and services. In addition to helping our customers determine the best software solutions for their needs, we help them manage their software agreements, including warranties and renewals. A significant portion of our advertising and marketing expenses are reimbursed through cooperative advertising programs with our vendor partners. These programs are at the discretion of our vendor partners and are typically tied to sales or other commitments to be met by us within a specified period of time.
Trends and Key Factors Affecting our Financial Performance
We believe the following key factors may have a meaningful impact on our business performance, influencing our ability to generate sales and achieve our targeted financial and operating results:
•General economic conditions are a key factor affecting our results as they can impact our customers’ willingness and ability to spend on IT. The prevailing economic conditions remain challenging, largely due to ongoing uncertainty surrounding evolving global trade policies and geopolitical conditions, along with other drivers. These dynamics may continue to influence supply chains, drive inflationary pressures, and affect interest rates. The uncertainty in the current economic environment has impacted and may continue to impact the timing of our customers’ investments in technology.
•Customers are evaluating the complex technology landscape in order to balance priorities and focus on solutions that lead to business optimization, cost management, and security risk management, among other factors, resulting in a
19

Table of Contents
more measured approach to their IT spending. We have orchestrated solutions that leverage security, software, artificial intelligence (“AI”), and hybrid and cloud offerings to help customers achieve their objectives.
•Changes and uncertainty related to spending policies, budget priorities, timing, and funding levels are key factors influencing the purchasing levels of government, healthcare, and education customers. As the duration and ongoing impact of current economic conditions remain uncertain, including any US government shutdowns, current and future budget priorities and funding levels for government, healthcare, and education customers may be adversely affected, leading to lower IT spend.
•Technology trends drive customer purchasing behaviors in the market. Current technology trends are focused on delivering greater flexibility and efficiency, as well as designing and managing IT securely, while balancing product availability, which is currently creating an inflationary environment. These trends are driving customer adoption of cloud, AI, software defined architectures, and hybrid on-premise and off-premise combinations. The trends are further driven by the evolution of the IT consumption model to more “as a service” solutions, including software as a service and infrastructure as a service, in addition to ongoing managed and professional service arrangements. Technology trends are likely to evolve and customers will prioritize spend that will produce the most important outcomes for their business.
Key Business Metrics
We monitor a number of financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis in order to track the progress of our business and make adjustments as necessary. Financial measures are presented both in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and non-GAAP, which excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include Gross profit, Gross profit margin, Operating income, Operating income margin, Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Net income, Non-GAAP net income, Net income per diluted share, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Average daily sales, Net cash provided by operating activities, Adjusted free cash flow, Cash conversion cycle, and Net debt. These measures and ratios are closely monitored by management, so that actions can be taken, as necessary, in order to achieve financial objectives.
For the definitions, discussion of management’s use of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see “Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations.”
The results of certain key business metrics for the comparative periods are as follows:

Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025
Net sales increased $481 million, or 9.2%, with higher Net sales across all operating segments. Net sales on a constant currency basis increased 8.4% in the first quarter of 2026. While economic and geopolitical uncertainty persists, all of our segments continued to experience improved customer spending during the quarter. The increase in customer demand drove Net sales growth primarily in data storage and servers, netcomm products, software, and notebooks/mobile devices.
Gross profit increased $68 million, or 6.0%, primarily due to higher Net sales, partially offset by lower gross profit margin. Gross profit margin decreased 60 basis points to 21.0%, primarily driven by a lower contribution of netted down revenue.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $53 million, or 7.0%, primarily due to higher compensation expense, including performance-based incentives, coworker-related costs, and investments to support our AI initiatives.
Operating income increased $15 million, or 4.0%, to $376 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $361 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Interest expense, net includes interest expense and interest income. Interest expense, net decreased $2 million, or 3.2%, primarily due to decreased interest expense on lower debt levels and a lower variable interest rate on the senior unsecured term loan, partially offset by lower interest income earned on cash balances.

Table of Contents
Income tax expense was $84 million and $79 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective income tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 26.2% and 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes and tax shortfalls on equity-based compensation, partially offset by tax credits. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was higher than the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was relatively consistent with the effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025
Commercial:
Net sales increased $314 million, or 9.6%, primarily due to an increased customer demand in netcomm products and software across the corporate and healthcare customer channels, and data storage and servers in the financial services customer channel.
Gross profit dollars increased $48 million, or 6.4%, primarily due to higher Net sales, partially offset by lower gross profit margin. Gross profit marg i n decreased 60 basis points, to 22.4%, which is primarily attributed to a lower contribution of netted down revenue.
Operating inc ome decreased $6 million, or 1.7%, primarily due to higher compensation expense, including performance-based incentives, and coworker-related costs, partially offset by higher Gross profit dollars.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations
Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial condition that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures used by management may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
Our non-GAAP performance measures include Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, and Net sales on a constant currency basis, and our non-GAAP financial condition measures include Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow. These non-GAAP performance measures and non-GAAP financial condition measures are collectively referred to as “non-GAAP financial measures.” The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, and Net sales on a constant currency basis are Operating income, Operating income margin, Net income, Net income per diluted share, and Net sales, respectively. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow is Net cash provided by operating activities.
Non-GAAP operating income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and the associated payroll taxes, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives, and workplace optimization. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of Net sales. Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP net income per diluted share exclude, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and the associated payroll taxes, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives, workplace optimization, and their associated income tax effects. Net sales on a constant currency basis is defined as Net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on Net sales. Free cash flow is defined as Net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as Free cash flow adjusted to include certain cash flows from financing activities incurred in the normal course of operations or as capital expenditures.
We believe our non-GAAP financial measures provide analysts, investors, and management with useful information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. Management uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. We also present non-GAAP financial condition measures as we believe they provide analysts, investors, and management with more information regarding our liquidity and capital resources. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation.
We have included reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 below.

Seasonality
While we have not historically experienced significant seasonality throughout the year on a consolidated basis, sales in our Government and Education segments have historically been higher in the second and third quarter than in other quarters primarily due to the buying patterns of education and government customers.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our operations and capital expenditures with cash from operations and borrowings under our variable rate senior unsecured revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”). As of March 31, 2026, we had $1.9 billion of availability for borrowings under our Revolving Loan Facility. Our liquidity and borrowing plans are established to align with our financial and strategic planning processes and ensure we have the necessary funding to meet our operating commitments, which primarily include the purchase of inventory, payroll, and general expenses. We also take into consideration our overall capital allocation strategy, which includes dividend payments, assessment of debt levels, acquisitions, and share repurchases. We believe we have adequate sources of liquidity and funding available for at least the next year; however, there are a number of factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds. The amount of cash generated from operations will be dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business plan, general economic conditions, and working capital management.
Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, we had total unsecured indebtedness of $5.6 billion, and we were in compliance with the covenants under our credit agreements and indentures.
We may from time to time repurchase one or more series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes, depending on market conditions, contractual commitments, our capital needs, and other factors. Repurchases of our senior notes may be made by open market or privately negotiated transactions and may be pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or otherwise.
For additional information regarding our debt and refinancing activities, see Note 6 (Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Inventory Financing Agreements
We have entered into agreements with certain financial intermediaries to facilitate the purchase of inventory from various suppliers under certain terms and conditions to enhance working capital. These amounts are classified separately as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not incur any interest expense or other incremental expenses associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. For additional information, see Note 5 (Inventory Financing Agreements) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Share Repurchase Program
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 1.6 million shares of our common stock for $201 million under the previously announced share repurchase program. For additional information on our share repurchase program, see “Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.”

(1)Includes items such as depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, provision for credit losses, and equity-based compensation expense.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to March 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily attributable to Merchandise inventory, partially offset by Accounts payable-trade. The decrease from Merchandise inventory was primarily due to customer-driven stocking positions as a result of higher demand. The increase from Accounts payable-trade was primarily due to timing of payments.
In order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs, we monitor our cash conversion cycle, defined as days of sales outstanding (DSO) in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory (DIO) minus days of purchases outstanding (DPO) in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average. Netted down revenue results in an increase to both DSO and DPO as the corresponding receivables and payables reflect the gross amounts due from customers and due to vendors while the corresponding sales and cost of sales are reflected on a net basis within Net sales. Additionally, as customers continue to shift to multi-year software purchases, unbilled receivables and DSO are expected to continue to increase. This customer shift

in purchasing is also expected to increase accounts payable and DPO, as the timing of vendor payments aligns with customer collections. Components of our cash conversion cycle are as follows:

| March 31,
(in days) | 2026 |  | 2025
Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1) | 96 |  |  | 86 |
Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2) | 14 |  |  | 13 |
Days of purchases outstanding (DPO)(3) | (94) |  |  | (84) |
Cash conversion cycle | 16 |  |  | 15 |

(1)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of the current portion of Accounts receivable, net at the end of the period, divided by average daily Net sales for the same three-month period. Also incorporates components of other miscellaneous receivables.
(2)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Merchandise inventory at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.
(3)Represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of the current portion of Accounts payable-trade, excluding cash overdrafts, and Accounts payable-inventory financing at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.
The cash conversion cycle increased to 16 days at March 31, 2026, compared to 15 days at March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to DIO, which increased by 1 day as a result of higher average customer stocking positions. DSO and DPO increased due to timing of collections and payments, respectively, and multi-year transactions.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities remained relatively consistent at a decrease of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to March 31, 2025.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to March 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by the net change in Accounts payable-inventory financing.
Issuers and Guarantors of Debt Securities
Each series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes (collectively, the “Notes”) are issued by CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation (the “Issuers”) and are guaranteed by Parent (the “Guarantor”). All guarantees by Parent are joint and several, and full and unconditional.
The Notes and the related guarantees are the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s senior unsecured obligations and are:
•structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries; and
•rank equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s existing and future unsecured senior debt.
Given that Parent, the sole Guarantor of the notes, is a holding company that does not conduct business operations of its own and depends on cash dividends, distributions, and other transfers from its subsidiaries to meet its obligations, we concluded that providing summarized financial information of the Issuers and Guarantor on an unconsolidated basis, excluding the non-guarantor subsidiaries, would not provide meaningful information to investors.
