The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the company's audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Stock Compensation - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718) ("ASU No. 2016-09"). ASU No. 2016-09 revises the accounting treatment for excess tax benefits, minimum statutory tax withholding requirements and forfeitures related to share-based awards. ASU No. 2016-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using either a retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09.
In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging - Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments (Topic 815) ("ASU No. 2016-06"). ASU No. 2016-06 clarifies the steps required to assess whether a call or put option meets the criteria for bifurcation as an embedded derivative. ASU No. 2016-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-06.
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU No. 2016-02"). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the Company to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting expense recognition in the income statement. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02.

ASU No. 2016-01 requires the change in fair value of many equity investments to be recognized in net income. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted.

December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. ASU No. 2015-17 may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2015-17 is not expected to have a material impact on the company's financial position or results of operations.
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, Inventory - Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330) ("ASU No. 2015-11"). ASU No. 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of the update at the lower of cost and net realizable value, and defines net realizable value as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.

ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU No. 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption.

Additionally, the above table does not reflect any anticipated cost savings or cross-selling opportunities expected to result from these acquisitions.
Note D – Cost in Excess of Net Assets of Companies Acquired and Intangible Assets, Net

The company tests goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist.
Cost in excess of net assets of companies acquired, allocated to the company's business segments, is as follows:

|  | Global Components |  | Global ECS |  | Total
Balance as of December 31, 2015 (a) |  | $ | 1,230,832 |  |  | $ | 1,138,000 |  |  | $ | 2,368,832 |
Acquisitions and related adjustments |  | (2,341 | ) |  | 47,613 |  |  | 45,272 |
Foreign currency translation adjustment |  | 5,651 |  |  | 17,279 |  |  | 22,930 |

The 7.50% senior debentures are not redeemable prior to their maturity. The 6.875% senior debentures, 3.00% notes, 6.00% notes, 5.125% notes, 3.50% notes, 4.50% notes, and 4.00% notes may be called at the option of the company subject to "make whole" clauses.
The estimated fair market value, using quoted market prices, is as follows:

|  | April 2, 2016 |  | December 31, 2015
6.875% senior debentures, due 2018 |  | $ | 216,500 |  |  | $ | 218,000 |

7.50% senior debentures, due 2027 |  | 241,500 |  |  | 238,000 |

The carrying amount of the company's short-term borrowings in various countries, revolving credit facility, asset securitization program, and other obligations approximate their fair value.
The company has a $1,500,000 revolving credit facility maturing in December 2018. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness and acquisitions, and as support for the company's commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a euro currency rate plus a spread (1.30% at April 2, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.58% at April 2, 2016. The facility fee, which is based on the company's credit ratings, was .20% at April 2, 2016. The company had $87,000 and $72,000 in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $900,000 under the asset securitization program, which matures in March 2017. The outstanding borrowings have been classified as long-term debt as of April 2, 2016 based on the company’s intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis by borrowing funds under the revolving credit facility or through refinancing the existing asset securitization program on a long-term basis. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation ("AFC"), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40% at April 2, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of .87% at April 2, 2016. The facility fee is .40%.
At April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the company had $325,000 and $75,000, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program, which was included in "Long-term debt" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Total collateralized accounts receivable of approximately $1,523,210 and $1,871,831, respectively, were held by AFC and were included in "Accounts receivable, net" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Any accounts receivable held by AFC would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings before repayment of any outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program.
Both the revolving credit facility and asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of April 2, 2016 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
During February 2015, the company completed the sale of $350,000 principal amount of 3.50% notes due in 2022 and $350,000 principal amount of 4.00% notes due in 2025. The net proceeds of the offering of $688,162 were used to refinance the company's 3.375% notes due November 2015 and for general corporate purposes.

Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $2,015 and $972 for the first quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Note H – Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The company utilizes a fair value hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 | Quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The following table presents assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis at April 2, 2016:

|  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Total
Available-for-sale securities |  | 38,537 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 38,537 |

|  | $ | 41,178 |  |  | $ | (27 | ) |  | $ | (3,889 | ) |  | $ | 37,262 |

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate primarily to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets (see Note C). The company tests these assets for impairment if indicators of potential impairment exist.
During the first quarters of 2016 and 2015, there were no transfers of assets (liabilities) measured at fair value between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Available-For-Sale Securities
The company has an 8.4% equity ownership interest in Marubun Corporation ("Marubun") and a portfolio of mutual funds with quoted market prices, all of which are accounted for as available-for-sale securities.
The fair value of the company's available-for-sale securities is as follows:

|  | April 2, 2016 |  | December 31, 2015
|  | Marubun |  | Mutual Funds |  | Marubun |  | Mutual Funds

Fair value |  | $ | 16,043 |  |  | $ | 22,494 |  |  | $ | 18,724 |  |  | $ | 22,454 |

The fair value of these investments are included in "Other assets" in the company's consolidated balance sheets, and the related unrealized holding gains or losses are included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the shareholders' equity section in the company's consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative Instruments
The company uses various financial instruments, including derivative instruments, for purposes other than trading. Certain derivative instruments are designated at inception as hedges and measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Derivative instruments not designated as hedges are marked-to-market each reporting period with any unrealized gains or losses recognized in earnings.
Interest Rate Swaps
The company occasionally enters into interest rate swap transactions that convert certain fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt or variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt in order to manage its targeted mix of fixed- and floating-rate debt. The company uses the hypothetical derivative method to assess the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps on a quarterly basis. The effective portion of the change in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges is recorded as a change to the carrying value of the related hedged debt, and the effective portion of the change in fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in the shareholders' equity section in the company's consolidated balance sheets in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss." The ineffective portion of the interest rate swap, if any, is recorded in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company's consolidated statements of operations.
In January 2015, the company entered into four seven-year forward-starting interest rate swaps (the "2015 swaps") which locked in an average treasury rate of 1.98% on a total aggregate notional amount of $200,000. These 2015 swaps were designated as cash flow hedges and managed the risk associated with changes in treasury rates and the impact of future interest payments on the anticipated debt issuances to replace the company's 3.375% notes due to mature in November 2015. In February 2015, the company received $896 in connection with the termination of the 2015 swaps upon issuance of the seven-year notes due in 2022. The fair value of the 2015 swaps is recorded in the shareholders' equity section in the company's consolidated balance sheets in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" and is being reclassified into income over the seven-year term of the notes due in 2022. For the 2015 swaps, the company reclassified into income $30 and $8 for the first quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
In April 2014, the company entered into an interest rate swap, with a notional amount of $50,000. The swap modifies the company's interest rate exposure by effectively converting a portion of the fixed 6.00% notes to a floating rate, based on the six-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread (an effective interest rate of 4.88% at April 2, 2016), through its maturity. The swap is classified as a fair value hedge and had a fair value of $1,489 at April 2, 2016.
In April 2014, the company entered into an interest rate swap, with a notional amount of $50,000. The swap modifies the company's interest rate exposure by effectively converting a portion of the fixed 6.875% senior debentures to a floating rate, based on the six-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread (an effective interest rate of 6.08% at April 2, 2016), through its maturity. The swap is classified as a fair value hedge and had a fair value of $463 at April 2, 2016.

Foreign Exchange Contracts
The company enters into foreign exchange forward, option, or swap contracts (collectively, the "foreign exchange contracts") to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are executed to facilitate the hedging of foreign currency exposures resulting from inventory purchases and sales and generally have terms of no more than six months. Gains or losses on these contracts are deferred and recognized when the underlying future purchase or sale is recognized or when the corresponding asset or liability is revalued. The company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for trading purposes. The risk of loss on a foreign exchange contract is the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties, which the company minimizes by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions. The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts are estimated using market quotes. The notional amount of the foreign exchange contracts at April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $333,841 and $382,025, respectively.
The fair values of derivative instruments in the company's consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

Acquisition-Related Expenses and Other Charges
Included in restructuring, integration, and other charges for the first quarter of 2016 are fraud loss, acquisition-related, and other expenses of $16,214. The company determined that it was the target of criminal fraud by persons impersonating a company executive, which resulted in unauthorized transfers of cash from a company account in Europe to outside bank accounts in Asia in January of 2016. An independent investigation and legal actions by the company and law enforcement are ongoing. To date, the information gathered by the company indicates that this is an isolated event not associated with a security breach or loss of data. Additionally, no officers or employees of the company were involved in the fraud. The company recorded a fraud loss of $13,195 in the first quarter of 2016. Included within “Other current assets” is approximately $29,000 of cash frozen in outside bank accounts that the company believes is probable of recovery. The charges of $1,624 related to contingent consideration for acquisitions completed in prior years which were conditional upon the financial performance of the acquired companies and the continued employment of the selling shareholders, as well as professional and other fees directly related to recent acquisition activity.
Included in restructuring, integration, and other charges for the first quarter of 2015 are acquisition-related expenses of $6,476 consisting of charges related to contingent consideration for acquisitions completed in prior years which were conditional upon the financial performance of the acquired companies and the continued employment of the selling shareholders, as well as professional fees directly related to recent acquisition activity.

Share-Repurchase Program
In September 2015, the company's Board approved a repurchase of up to $400,000 of the company's common stock. As of April 2, 2016, the company repurchased 1,476,224 shares under the program with a market value of $82,718 at the dates of repurchase, of which 43,350 shares with a market value of $2,501 were repurchased during the first quarter of 2016.
Note L – Contingencies
Environmental Matters
In connection with the purchase of Wyle in August 2000, the company acquired certain of the then outstanding obligations of Wyle, including Wyle's indemnification obligations to the purchasers of its Wyle Laboratories division for environmental clean-up costs associated with any then existing contamination or violation of environmental regulations. Under the terms of the company's purchase of Wyle from the sellers, the sellers agreed to indemnify the company for certain costs associated with the Wyle environmental obligations, among other things. As part of the settlement agreement the company accepted responsibility for any potential subsequent costs incurred related to the Wyle matters. The company is aware of two Wyle Laboratories facilities (in Huntsville, Alabama and Norco, California) at which contaminated groundwater was identified and will require environmental remediation. In addition, the company was named as a defendant in several lawsuits related to the Norco facility and a third site in El Segundo, California which have now been settled to the satisfaction of the parties.
The company expects these environmental liabilities to be resolved over an extended period of time. Costs are recorded for environmental matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for environmental liabilities are adjusted periodically as facts and circumstances change, assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes available. Environmental liabilities are difficult to assess and estimate due to various unknown factors such as the timing and extent of remediation, improvements in remediation technologies, and the extent to which environmental laws and regulations may change in the future. Accordingly the company cannot presently fully estimate the ultimate potential costs related to these sites until such time as a substantial portion
19

ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.

(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
(Unaudited)
of the investigation at the sites is completed and remedial action plans are developed and, in some instances, implemented. To the extent that future environmental costs exceed amounts currently accrued by the company, net income would be adversely impacted and such impact could be material.
Accruals for environmental liabilities are included in "Accrued expenses" and "Other liabilities" in the company's consolidated balance sheets.
As successor-in-interest to Wyle, the company is the beneficiary of various Wyle insurance policies that covered liabilities arising out of operations at Norco and Huntsville. To date, the company has recovered approximately $37,000 from certain insurance carriers relating to environmental clean-up matters at the Norco site. The company is considering the best way to pursue its potential claims against insurers regarding liabilities arising out of operations at Huntsville. The resolution of these matters will likely take several years. The company has not recorded a receivable for any potential future insurance recoveries related to the Norco and Huntsville environmental matters, as the realization of the claims for recovery are not deemed probable at this time.
The company believes the settlement amount together with potential recoveries from various insurance policies covering environmental remediation and related litigation will be sufficient to cover any potential future costs related to the Wyle acquisition; however, it is possible unexpected costs beyond those anticipated could occur.
Environmental Matters - Huntsville
In February 2015, the company and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management ("ADEM") finalized and executed a consent decree in connection with the Huntsville, Alabama site. Characterization of the extent of contaminated soil and groundwater continues at the site. Under the direction of the ADEM, approximately $5,000 was spent to date. The pace of the ongoing remedial investigations, project management, and regulatory oversight is likely to increase somewhat and, though the complete scope of the activities is not yet known, the company currently estimates additional investigative and related expenditures at the site of approximately $400 to $750. The nature and scope of both feasibility studies and subsequent remediation at the site has not yet been determined, but assuming the outcome includes source control and certain other measures, the cost is estimated to be between $3,000 and $4,000.
Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.
Environmental Matters - Norco
In October 2003, the company entered into a consent decree with Wyle Laboratories and the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (the "DTSC") in connection with the Norco site. In April 2005, a Remedial Investigation Work Plan was approved by DTSC that provided for site-wide characterization of known and potential environmental issues. Investigations performed in connection with this work plan and a series of subsequent technical memoranda continued until the filing of a final Remedial Investigation Report early in 2008. Work is under way pertaining to the remediation of contaminated groundwater at certain areas on the Norco site and of soil gas in a limited area immediately adjacent to the site. In 2008, a hydraulic containment system was installed to capture and treat groundwater before it moves into the adjacent offsite area. In September 2013, the DTSC approved the final Remedial Action Plan ("RAP") and work is currently progressing under the RAP. The approval of the RAP includes the potential for additional remediation action after the five year review of the hydraulic containment system if the review finds that contaminants have not been sufficiently reduced in the offsite area.
Approximately $50,000 was spent to date on remediation, project management, regulatory oversight, and investigative and feasibility study activities. The company currently estimates that these activities will give rise to an additional $13,500 to $24,500. Project management and regulatory oversight include costs incurred by project consultants for project management and costs billed by DTSC to provide regulatory oversight.
Despite the amount of work undertaken and planned to date, the company is unable to estimate any potential costs in addition to those discussed above because the complete scope of the work under the RAP is not yet known, and, accordingly, the associated costs have yet to be determined.

Tekelec Matter
In 2000, the company purchased Tekelec Europe SA ("Tekelec") from Tekelec Airtronic SA and certain other selling shareholders. Subsequent to the closing of the acquisition, Tekelec received a product liability claim in the amount of €11,333. The product liability claim was the subject of a French legal proceeding started by the claimant in 2002, under which separate determinations were made as to whether the products that are subject to the claim were defective and the amount of damages sustained by the purchaser. The manufacturer of the products also participated in this proceeding. The claimant commenced legal proceedings against Tekelec and its insurers to recover damages in the amount of €3,742 and expenses of €312 plus interest. In May 2012, the French court ruled in favor of Tekelec and dismissed the plaintiff's claims. In January 2015, the Court of Appeals confirmed the French court's ruling; however, the ruling remains subject to a final appeal by the plaintiff. The company believes that any amount in addition to the amount accrued by the company would not materially adversely impact the company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.
Antitrust Investigation
On January 21, 2014, the company received a Civil Investigative Demand in connection with an investigation by the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") relating generally to the use of a database program (the “database program”) that has operated for more than ten years under the auspices of the Global Technology Distribution Council ("GTDC"), a trade group of which the company is a member. Under the database program, certain members of the GTDC who participate in the program provide sales data to a third party independent contractor chosen by the GTDC. The data is aggregated by the third party and the aggregated data is made available to the program participants. The company understands that other members participating in the database program have received similar Civil Investigative Demands.
In April 2014, the company responded to the Civil Investigative Demand. The Civil Investigative Demand merely sought information, and no proceedings have been instituted against any person. The company continues to believe that there has not been any conduct by the company or its employees that would be actionable under the antitrust laws in connection with its participation in the database program. At this time, it is not possible to predict the potential impact, if any, of the Civil Investigative Demand or whether any actions may be instituted by the FTC against any person.
Other
From time to time, in the normal course of business, the company may become liable with respect to other pending and threatened litigation, environmental, regulatory, labor, product, and tax matters. While such matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, it is not currently anticipated that any such matters will materially impact the company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.
Note M – Segment and Geographic Information
The company is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions. The company distributes electronic components to original equipment manufacturers and contract manufacturers through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers through its global ECS business segment.

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

Overview
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the "company") is a global provider of products, services, and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions. The company provides one of the broadest product offerings in the electronic components and enterprise computing solutions industries and a wide range of value-added services to help customers introduce innovative products, reduce their time to market, and enhance their overall competitiveness. The company has two business segments, the global components business segment and the global enterprise computing solutions ("ECS") business segment. The company provides electronic components to original equipment manufacturers and contract manufacturers through its global components business segment and provides enterprise computing solutions to value-added resellers through its global ECS business segment. For the first quarter of 2016, approximately 67% of the company's sales were from the global components business segment, and approximately 33% of the company's sales were from the global ECS business segment.
The company's financial objectives are to grow sales faster than the market, increase the markets served, grow profits faster than sales, and increase return on invested capital. To achieve its objectives, the company seeks to capture significant opportunities to grow across products, markets, and geographies. To supplement its organic growth strategy, the company continually evaluates strategic acquisitions to broaden its product and value-added service offerings, increase its market penetration, and/or expand its geographic reach.
Executive Summary
Consolidated sales for the first quarter of 2016 increased by 9.4% compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2016 was driven by an increase in the global components business segment sales of 9.8% and an increase in the global ECS business segment sales of 8.6%. Adjusted for the change in foreign currencies and acquisitions, consolidated sales increased 3.9% for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the year-earlier period.
Net income attributable to shareholders for the first quarter of 2016 of $106.2 million was relatively flat compared with net income attributable to shareholders of $106.1 million in the year-earlier period. The following items impacted the comparability of the company's results:
First quarters of 2016 and 2015:

• | restructuring, integration, and other charges of $20.8 million ($15.4 million net of related taxes) in 2016 and $16.2 million ($12.6 million net of related taxes) in 2015;

• | identifiable intangible asset amortization of $12.9 million ($10.6 million net of related taxes) in 2016 and $11.1 million ($9.0 million net of related taxes) in 2015;

• | a gain on sale of investment of $2.0 million ($1.7 million net of related taxes) in 2015; and

• | a loss on prepayment of debt of $2.9 million ($1.8 million net of related taxes) in 2015.

Excluding the aforementioned items, net income attributable to shareholders for the first quarter of 2016 increased to $132.2 million compared with $127.8 million in the year-earlier period.
Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information, including:

• | Sales, income, or expense items as adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as "impact of changes in foreign currencies") and the impact of acquisitions by adjusting the company's operating results for businesses acquired, including the amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets, as if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented (referred to as "impact of acquisitions");

• | Operating income as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization and restructuring, integration, and other charges; and

• | Net income attributable to shareholders as adjusted to exclude identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, loss on prepayment of debt, and gain on sale of investment.

Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company's operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods, primarily because management typically monitors
24

the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.
Sales
Substantially all of the company's sales are made on an order-by-order basis, rather than through long-term sales contracts. As such, the nature of the company's business does not provide for the visibility of material forward-looking information from its customers and suppliers beyond a few months.
Following is an analysis of net sales by reportable segment (in millions):

| Quarter Ended |  |
| April 2, 2016 |  | March 28, 2015 |  | % Change

Consolidated sales for the first quarter of 2016 increased by $471.8 million, or 9.4%, compared with the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2016 was driven by an increase in global components business segment sales of $329.2 million, or 9.8%, and an increase in global ECS business segment sales of $142.6 million, or 8.6%, compared with the year-earlier period. Adjusted for changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, consolidated sales increased 3.9% for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the year-earlier period.
In the global components business segment, sales for the first quarter of 2016 increased 9.8% compared with the year-earlier period, primarily due to increased demand in all regions and the impact of recently acquired businesses. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, the company's global components business segment sales increased by 4.4% for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the year-earlier period.
In the global ECS business segment, sales for the first quarter of 2016 increased 8.6% compared with the year-earlier period due to the increased demand in the EMEA region and the impact of recently acquired businesses. Adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies and acquisitions, the company's global ECS business segment sales increased by 2.9% for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the year-earlier period.

These restructuring initiatives are due to the company's continued efforts to lower cost and drive operational efficiency. Integration costs are primarily related to the integration of acquired businesses within the company's pre-existing business and the consolidation of certain operations.
As of April 2, 2016, the company does not anticipate there will be any material adjustments relating to the aforementioned restructuring and integration plans. Refer to Note I, "Restructuring, Integration, and Other Charges," of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the company's restructuring and integration activities.

The company recorded net interest and other financing expense of $35.6 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared with $30.9 million in the year-earlier period. The increase for the first quarter of 2016 was primarily due to higher average debt outstanding that was used to refinance the company's 3.375% notes due November 1, 2015 before maturity and for general corporate purposes.
Other Expenses, Net
During the first quarter of 2015, the company recorded a loss on prepayment of debt of $2.9 million ($1.8 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis), related to the redemption of $250.0 million principal amount of its 3.375% notes

Net Income Attributable to Shareholders
Following is an analysis of net income attributable to shareholders (in millions):

| Quarter Ended
| April 2, 2016 |  | March 28, 2015
Net income attributable to shareholders, as reported | $ | 106 |  |  | $ | 106 |

Net income attributable to shareholders, as adjusted, was $132.2 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared with $127.8 million in the year-earlier period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $394.7 million and $273.1 million, respectively, of which $355.8 million and $232.6 million, respectively, were held outside the United States. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the company's business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world. It is the company's current intent to permanently reinvest these funds outside the United States and its current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund its United States operations. If these funds were needed for the company's operations in the United States, it would be required to record and pay significant United States income taxes to repatriate these funds. Additionally, local government regulations may restrict the company's ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances. The company currently does not expect such regulations and restrictions to impact its ability to make acquisitions or to pay vendors and conduct operations throughout the global organization.
During the first quarter of 2016, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $36.6 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $95.8 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $253.6 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was an increase of $0.3 million.
During the first quarter of 2015, the net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities was $241.6 million, the net amount of cash used for investing activities was $162.2 million, and the net amount of cash provided by financing activities was $323.4 million. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash was a decrease of $14.6 million.

The company maintains a significant investment in accounts receivable and inventories. As a percentage of total assets, accounts receivable and inventories were approximately 62.3% at April 2, 2016 and 66.3% at December 31, 2015.
The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first quarter of 2016 was $36.6 million and was primarily due to an increase in net working capital to support the increase is sales, offset, in part, by earnings from operations, adjusted for non-cash items.
The net amount of cash used for the company's operating activities during the first quarter of 2015 was $241.6 million and was primarily due to an increase in working capital, offset, in part, by earnings from operations, adjusted for non-cash items.
Working capital as a percentage of sales was 15.9% in the first quarter of 2016 compared with 17.5% in the first quarter of 2015.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of 2016 was $95.8 million. The uses of cash from investing activities included $46.5 million of cash consideration paid, net of cash acquired, for the acquisition of two businesses and $49.3 million for capital expenditures. Included in capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2016 is $16.6 million related to the company's global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") initiative.
The net amount of cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of 2015 was $162.2 million, reflecting $133.1 million of cash consideration paid, net of cash acquired, for the acquisition of three businesses and $31.2 million for capital expenditures. The source of cash from investing activities during the first quarter of 2015 was $2.0 million related to the sale of investment. Included in capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2015 is $10.9 million related to the company's global ERP initiative.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of 2016 was $253.6 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $18.7 million of repurchases of common stock and $3.0 million of other acquisition related payments. The sources of cash from financing activities during the first quarter of 2016 were $0.5 million and $265.0 million of net proceeds from short-term and long-term bank borrowings, respectively, and $9.8 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and other benefits related to stock-based compensation arrangements.
The net amount of cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of 2015 was $323.4 million. The uses of cash from financing activities included $254.3 million of redemption of notes, $78.6 million of repurchases of common stock, $48.4 million of net repayments of long-term bank borrowings, and other contingent consideration payments of $3.0 million. The sources of cash from financing activities during the first quarter of 2015 were $688.2 million of net proceeds from a note offering, $18.2 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and other benefits related to stock-based compensation arrangements, and a $1.2 million increase in short-term and other borrowings.
During the first quarter of 2015, the company completed the sale of $350.0 million principal amount of 3.50% notes due in 2022 and $350.0 million principal amount of 4.00% notes due in 2025. The net proceeds of the offering of $688.2 million were used to refinance the company's 3.375% notes due November 2015 and for general corporate purposes.
During the first quarter of 2015, the company redeemed $250.0 million principal amount of its 3.375% notes due November 2015. The related loss on the redemption for the first quarter of 2015 aggregated $2.9 million ($1.8 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and was recognized as a loss on prepayment of debt in the company's consolidated statements of operations.
The company has a $1.50 billion revolving credit facility, maturing in December 2018. This facility may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness and acquisitions, and as support for the company's commercial paper program, as applicable. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a euro currency rate plus a spread (1.30% at April 2, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of 1.58% at April 2, 2016. The facility fee is .20%. At April 2, 2016, the company had $87.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The Company had $72.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2015. During the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, the average daily balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility was $169.6 million and $340.4 million, respectively.
29

The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. The company may borrow up to $900.0 million under the asset securitization program, which matures in March 2017. The outstanding borrowings have been classified as long-term debt as of April 2, 2016 based on the company’s intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis by borrowing funds under the revolving credit facility or through refinancing the existing asset securitization program on a long term-basis. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40% at April 2, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, or an effective interest rate of .87% at April 2, 2016. The facility fee is .40%. The company had $325.0 million and $75.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program at April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. During the first quarter s of 2016 and 2015, the average daily balance outstanding under the asset securitization program was $614.0 million and $410.6 million, respectively.
Both the revolving credit facility and asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of April 2, 2016 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future.
The Company has a $100.0 million uncommitted line of credit. There were no outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted line of credit at April 2, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
In the normal course of business certain of the company’s subsidiaries have agreements to sell, without recourse, selected trade receivables to financial institutions. The company does not retain financial or legal interests in these receivables, and, accordingly, they are accounted for as sales of the related receivables and the receivables are removed from the company’s consolidated balance sheets. Financing costs related to these transactions were not material and are included in "Interest and other financing expense, net" in the company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The company filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in September 2015 registering debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, and warrants of Arrow Electronics, Inc. that may be issued by the company from time to time. As set forth in the shelf registration statement, the net proceeds from the sale of the offered securities may be used by the company for general corporate purposes, including repayment of borrowings, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and stock repurchases, or for such other purposes as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Management believes that the company's current cash availability, its current borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility, and asset securitization program, its expected ability to generate future operating cash flows, and the company's access to capital markets are sufficient to meet its projected cash flow needs for the foreseeable future. The company continually evaluates its liquidity requirements and would seek to amend its existing borrowing capacity or access the financial markets as deemed necessary.
Contractual Obligations
The company has contractual obligations for short-term and long-term debt, interest on short-term and long-term debt, capital leases, operating leases, purchase obligations, and certain other long-term liabilities that were summarized in a table of Contractual Obligations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Since December 31, 2015, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations of the company, outside the ordinary course of the company’s business.
Share-Repurchase Program
In September 2015, the company's Board approved a repurchase of up to $400 million of the company's common stock. As of April 2, 2016, the company repurchased 1,476,224 shares under the program with a market value of $82.7 million at the dates of repurchase, of which 43,350 shares with a market value of $2.5 million were repurchased during the first quarter of 2016.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The company has no off-balance sheet financing or unconsolidated special purpose entities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that
30

affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. The company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There were no significant changes during the first quarter of 2016 to the items disclosed as Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There were no material changes in market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates from the information provided in Item 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The company's management, under the supervision and with the participation of the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company's disclosure controls and procedures as of April 2, 2016 (the "Evaluation"). Based upon the Evaluation, the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, because of a material weakness in the company’s internal control over financial reporting, the company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. This material weakness was previously disclosed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and continues to exist as of April 2, 2016.
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness described below, management does not believe that these deficiencies had an adverse effect on the company’s reported operating results or financial condition and management has determined that the financial statements and other information included in this report and other periodic filings present fairly in all material respects the company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
Management determined that the company’s internal controls did not operate effectively to prevent or timely detect unauthorized cash disbursements. Specifically, although management believes internal controls were adequate to timely detect unauthorized cash disbursements so as to prevent or detect a material misstatement of the company’s financial statements, these controls were not adequate to safeguard the company’s cash assets from unauthorized transfers resulting from the failure of certain members of the finance organization to exercise appropriate skepticism and oversight for disbursement of company-owned funds. This material weakness in the company’s controls resulted in the inability to prevent and timely detect the fraud loss discussed in Note I of the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Remediation of the Material Weakness
Management has initiated a remediation plan and has completed the following actions:

• | enhanced approval requirements for electronic disbursements;

• | increased centralization and levels of review for the processing of disbursements;

• | implemented limits on the amount of cash available for disbursement;

• | increased internal communications to improve security awareness and to emphasize the importance of exercising professional skepticism;

• | established communications protocols for attempted fraudulent disbursements; and

• | replaced individuals responsible for the unauthorized use of the company’s assets

Management will continue to assess whether additional control enhancements are necessary. After the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time, management will perform testing to determine whether they are operating effectively.
Management expects to complete the remediation during the second quarter of 2016.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than the changes associated with the remediation efforts described above, there was no change in the company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company's internal control over financial reporting.
