See Item 7, "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below for a discussion of the amount of the Company’s net sales contributed by business segment.
Industry Overview
The distribution channels for specialty technology products generally consist of manufacturers (also referred to as vendors), wholesale distributors such as ScanSource, resellers and end users. The "sales channel" for specialty technology products typically evolves through a three-stage process: (i) direct sales by manufacturers to end-users; (ii) single-tier distribution in which manufacturers sell to resellers who, in turn, sell directly to end users; and (iii) two-tier, or wholesale distribution, in which manufacturers sell to wholesale distributors, including ScanSource, who sell only to resellers who, in turn, sell directly to end users. Currently, the wholesale distribution channel for technology products is served by both broad line and specialty distributors. The broad line distributors are engaged primarily in conventional order fulfillment and typically offer their reseller customers less support and fewer value-added services than do specialty distributors. The specialty distributors that compete with ScanSource are generally smaller, both in terms of size and geographic area covered.
Competition among an expanding number of manufacturers typically causes product prices to decrease and product applications to expand, which has resulted in an increasing number of resellers entering the market in order to support a broader base of potential end users. As the number of resellers and end-users has grown, competition among manufacturers and within the reseller channel has intensified. Because many specialty technology manufacturers develop products that represent only one part of a total solution, most products eventually are developed to provide interoperability among products from multiple manufacturers. As a result of interoperability, a variety of manufacturers' products are typically configured together to create a system solution. Therefore, both manufacturers and resellers have become more dependent upon value-added wholesale distributors, such as ScanSource, for the aggregation of products and reseller support services, as well as the organization and maintenance of an efficient market structure.

Index to Financial Statements
In addition, manufacturers that face declining product prices and rising costs of direct sales increasingly rely upon value-added wholesale distributors by outsourcing certain support functions, such as product assortment, delivery, inventory management, technical assistance and marketing. At the same time, shortened product life cycles and the introduction of new products and applications have caused resellers to increasingly rely on wholesale distributors for various inventory management, financing, technical support and related functions. The Company believes that, as the reseller market grows and becomes more fragmented, and as specialty technology products continue to transition to open systems, the wholesale distribution channel in which the Company operates will become increasingly more important.
Vendors
The Company's key vendors in barcode technologies include Bematech, Cisco, Datalogic, Elo, Epson, Honeywell, Ingenico, NCR, Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions, Verifone and Zebra Technologies. The Company's key vendors for security technologies include Arecont, Axis, Bosch, Cisco, Datacard, Exacq Technologies, HID, March Networks, Panasonic, Ruckus Wireless, Samsung, Sony and Zebra Card. The Company's key vendors in communications technologies include Aruba, AudioCodes, Avaya, Cisco, Dialogic, Jabra, Mitel, Plantronics, Polycom, Shoretel, and Spectralink.
The Company's products are typically purchased directly from the manufacturer on a non-exclusive basis. The Company's agreements with its vendors generally do not restrict the Company from selling similar or comparable products manufactured by competitors. The Company has the flexibility to terminate or curtail sales of one product line in favor of another due to technological change, pricing considerations, product availability, customer demand or vendor distribution policies.
The Company has over 300 hardware and software vendors that currently supply its products. Two vendors, Zebra and Avaya, each constituted more than 10% of the Company's net sales. These vendors represent key vendors for the Company, and further, represent a vendor concentration for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015.
The Company has two non-exclusive distribution agreements with Motorola/Zebra. One agreement covers sales of Motorola/Zebra hardware and software products in North and South America, and another agreement covers sales of Motorola/Zebra hardware and software products in Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"). The Motorola/Zebra agreements each have a one year term that automatically renews for additional one year terms, and either party may terminate the agreement upon 30 days notice to the other party.
The Company also has two non-exclusive distribution agreements with Avaya. One agreement covers the distribution of Avaya products in the United States and Latin America, and the other agreement covers distribution of Avaya products in the United Kingdom and certain portions of continental Europe. The Company's Avaya agreements each have a one year term that automatically renews for additional one year terms. These agreements may be terminated upon providing notice to the other party of 180 days for the U.S. and Latin America agreement and 90 days for the European agreement.
In addition to the Motorola/Zebra and Avaya agreements mentioned above, the Company has written distribution agreements with almost all of its vendors. These agreements were entered into in the ordinary course of business and are in the form that the Company believes are customarily used by manufacturers and distributors. The Company's agreements generally provide it with non-exclusive distribution rights and often include territorial restrictions that limit the countries in which the Company can distribute its products. These agreements, including those with Motorola and Avaya typically provide the Company with stock rotation and price protection provisions. Stock rotation rights give the Company the ability, subject to certain limitations, to return for credit or exchange a portion of those inventory items purchased from the vendor. Price protection situations occur when a vendor credits the Company for declines in inventory value resulting from the vendor's price reductions. Along with the Company's inventory management policies and practices, these provisions are designed to reduce the Company's risk of loss due to slow-moving inventory, vendor price reductions, product updates or obsolescence.
Some of the Company's distribution agreements contain minimum purchase requirements that the Company must meet in order to receive preferential prices. The Company participates in various rebate, cash discount and cooperative marketing programs offered by its vendors to support expenses associated with distributing and marketing the vendor's products. These rebates and purchase discounts are generally influenced by sales volumes and are subject to change.
The Company's distribution agreements are generally short term, subject to periodic renewal, and provide for termination by either party without cause upon 30 to 120 days' notice. The Company's vendors generally warrant the products the Company distributes and allow returns of defective products, including those returned to the Company by its customers. The Company generally does

not independently warrant the products it distributes; however, local laws may in some cases impose warranty obligations on the Company.
The Company’s merchandising departments recruit vendors and manage important aspects of its vendor relationships, such as purchasing arrangements, cooperative marketing initiatives, vendor sales force relationships, product training, monitoring of rebate programs, and various contract terms and conditions.
Customers
The Company’s reseller customers currently include approximately 35,000 active value-added reseller ("VAR") accounts located in the United States, Canada, Latin America and Europe. No single customer accounted for more than 5% of the Company’s total net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The Company generally targets resellers, including specialty technology VARs and Information Technology ("IT") system integrators and service providers.
Specialty Technology VARs
These resellers focus on selling specialty technology products as tailored software or integrated hardware solutions for their end-users’ existing applications. They also incorporate specialty technology products into customized technology solutions for their end-users. Primary industries served by these resellers include manufacturing, distribution, health care, pharmaceutical, hospitality, government, convenience, grocery, financial and other retail markets.
IT System Integrators
These resellers develop computer and networking solutions for their end-users’ IT needs. They typically have well-established relationships with end-user decision makers and are seeking additional revenue and profit opportunities in technology markets, such as AIDC, POS, physical security or communications.
Service Providers
These providers focus on providing advanced services that offer customized solutions that bundle data, collaboration, cloud, network and digital telecommunication services for their end-users' needs. They specialize in multi-vendor and multi-discipline services within various geographies.
Sales and Electronic Commerce
The Company’s sales department consists primarily of inside sales representatives located in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. In order to build strong customer relationships, most active resellers are assigned to a sales representative. Each sales representative negotiates pricing directly with their assigned customers. The Company also employs business development representatives who are responsible for developing technical expertise within broad product markets, recruiting customers, creating demand, and reviewing overall product and service requirements of resellers. Each sales representative and business development representative receives comprehensive training with respect to the technical characteristics of each vendor’s products. This training is supplemented by frequent product seminars conducted by vendors’ representatives and bi-weekly meetings among product, marketing and sales managers.
Increasingly, customers rely upon the Company’s electronic ordering and information systems, in addition to its product catalogs and frequent mailings, as sources for product information, including availability and price. Through the Company’s websites, most customers can gain remote access to the Company’s information systems to check real-time product availability, see their customized pricing and place orders. Customers can also follow the status of their orders and obtain United Parcel Service ("UPS") and Federal Express ("FedEx") package tracking numbers from this site.
Marketing
The Company provides a range of marketing services, including cooperative advertising with vendors through trade publications and direct mail, product catalogs for each of the North American, European and Latin American markets, periodic newsletters, management of sales leads, trade shows with hardware and software companies and vendors and sales promotions. In addition, the Company organizes and operates its own web seminars and works closely with top vendors to recruit prospective resellers and
4

Index to Financial Statements
introduce new applications for the specialty technology products it distributes. The Company frequently customizes its marketing services for vendors and, through its ScanSource Services Group, for resellers.
Value-Added Services
We differentiate ourselves by providing our resellers and our vendors an array of pre-sale business tools and value-added services, including logistics, financial services, product configuration tools, sales expertise, and technical support. These services allow our customers to gain knowledge on marketing, to gain expertise in selling and negotiation, to grow their business profitably, and to be more cost effective in their business. These services allow our vendors to recognize cost savings in their business, to improve their market presence, and to reduce variation in their business. Our business is based upon our abilities and our willingness to provide the extra service that keeps both our vendors and our customers coming back. In addition, our ScanSource Services Group ("SSG") assists resellers in providing more complete solutions and improving customer service. The mission of SSG is to provide our partners with the best and most cost-effective tools that will help accelerate business growth. Through our professional services, integration, custom configuration, marketing, education and training programs and partnership services, SSG improves efficiency, productivity, quality control, and profitability of our business partners. Since partners can leverage our expertise to complement or expand their reach, SSG is positioned to create opportunities, extend resources and increase profit for our partners.
Operations
Information Systems
The Company is in the process of continuing to roll-out a new, global information system designed to replace the current existing systems. This new system is currently operating in Europe and in North America. The current information systems (including the new SAP system) are scalable and capable of supporting numerous operational functions including purchasing, receiving, order processing, shipping, inventory management and accounting. Sales representatives rely on the information systems for on-line, real-time information on product pricing, inventory availability and reservation, and order status. The Company’s warehouse operations use bar code technology for receiving and shipping, and automated UPS and FedEx systems for freight processing and shipment tracking, each of which is integrated with the Company’s multiple information systems. The customer service and technical support departments employ the systems for documentation and faster processing of customer product returns. To ensure that adequate inventory levels are maintained, the Company’s buyers depend on the system’s purchasing and receiving functions to track inventory on a continual basis.
Warehouse and Shipping Strategy
We operate a 600,000 square foot distribution center in Southaven, Mississippi, which is located near the FedEx hub facility in Memphis, Tennessee and serves all of North America. Our European operations utilize a limited number of distribution centers located in Belgium, France, Germany and the United Kingdom that serves all of Europe. Warehouses for our Latin American operations are located in Miami, Florida, Mexico, Colombia and Brazil. Our distribution model creates several advantages, including: (i) a reduced amount of "safety stock" inventory which, in turn, reduces the Company’s working capital requirements; (ii) an increased turnover rate through tighter controls over inventory; (iii) maintenance of a consistent order-fill rate; (iv) improved personnel productivity; (v) improved delivery time; (vi) simplified purchasing and tracking; (vii) decreased demand for management personnel; and (viii) flexibility to meet customer needs for systems integration. Our objective is to ship all orders on the same day, using bar code technology to expedite shipments and minimize shipping errors. The Company offers reduced freight rates and flexible delivery options to minimize a reseller’s need for inventory.
Financial Services
Our sales terms are competitive within our specific geographic areas for qualified resellers and facilitate various third-party financing options which include leasing, flooring and other secured financing. We believe this policy reduces the customer’s need to establish multiple credit relationships with a large number of manufacturers.
Competition
The markets in which we operate are highly competitive. Competition is based primarily on factors such as price, product availability, speed and accuracy of delivery, effectiveness of sales and marketing programs, credit availability, ability to tailor
5

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
specific solutions to customer needs, quality and breadth of product lines and services, and availability of technical and product information.
Our competitors include regional and national wholesale distributors, as well as hardware manufacturers (including most of the Company’s vendors) that sell directly to resellers and to end users. In addition, our competitors include master resellers that sell to franchisees, third party dealers and end users. Certain current and potential competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Company has and may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Certain smaller, regional competitors, who are specialty two tier or mixed model master resellers, may also be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Competition has increased for our sales units over the last several years as broad line and other value added distributors have entered into the specialty technology markets. Such competition could also result in price reductions, reduced margins and/or loss of market share.
In our Barcode/Security segment, we compete with broad-line distributors, such as Avnet, Ingram Micro, Synnex, and Tech Data in all geographic areas, and more specialized security distributors, such as ADI and Anixter. Additionally, the Company also competes against other smaller, more specialized AIDC and POS distributors, such as Azerty, BlueStar, BP Solutions, Jarltech, Prime Interway Do Brasil and Nimax. In our Communications/Services segment, the Company competes against broad-line distributors, such as Avnet, Ingram Micro, Synnex and Tech Data, and more specialized distributors, such as Jenne, NETXUSA and Westcon. As the Company seeks to expand its business into other areas closely related to the Company’s offerings, the Company may encounter increased competition from current competitors and/or from new competitors, some of which may be the Company’s current customers.
Employees
As of June 30, 2015, we had approximately 2,000 employees located in the United States, Canada, Latin America and Europe. The Company has no organized labor or trade unions in the United States. The Company considers its employee relations to be good.
Service Marks
The Company conducts its business under the trade names and service marks "ScanSource POS and Barcode," "ScanSource Catalyst," "ScanSource Communications," "ScanSource Services," "ScanSource Security," "ScanSource Europe," "ScanSource Europe Communications," "ScanSource Latin America," "ScanSource Mexico," "ScanSource Brasil," "Imago ScanSource," and "Network1, a ScanSource company."
The Company has been issued registrations for the service marks "ScanSource," "Catalyst Telecom," and "NetPoint" in countries in its principal markets. Additionally, we have registered "ScanSource Catalyst" as a trademark in the United States. These trade names and service marks do not have value assigned to them and have a designated indefinite life. The Company does not believe that its operations are dependent upon any of its trade names or service marks. The Company also sells products and provides services under various trade names and service marks to which reference is made in this report that are the property of owners other than the Company.
Additional Information
The Company’s principal internet address is www.scansource.com. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this annual report. The Company has included its website address as a factual reference and does not intend it as an active link to its website. The Company provides its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports, free of charge on www.scansource.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

ITEM 1A. | Risk Factors.

The following are certain risk factors that could affect our business, financial position and results of operations. These risks should be considered in connection with evaluating the forward looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because these factors could cause the actual results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements

Index to Financial Statements
or from our historical performance. Additionally, there are other risks that we may not describe, because we currently do not perceive them to be material or because they are presently unknown, which could impact us. If any of these risks develops into actual events, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected, the market price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any risk factors, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
IT Systems and the transition to a new Enterprise Resource Planning System - Our ability to manage our business and monitor results is highly dependent upon information and communication systems. A failure of these systems or a new ERP system could disrupt our business.
We are highly dependent upon a variety of internal computer and telecommunication systems to operate our business, including our enterprise resource planning ("ERP") systems. In order to continue support of our growth, we are making significant technological upgrades to our information systems. We have been in the process of developing and implementing a company-wide, single ERP software system and related processes to perform various functions and improve on the efficiency of our global business. This is a lengthy and expensive process that has and will continue to result in a diversion of resources from other operations.
Any disruptions, delays or deficiencies in the design and/or implementation of the new ERP system, or in the performance of our legacy systems, particularly any disruptions, delays or deficiencies that impact our operations, could adversely affect our ability to effectively run and manage our business and potentially our customers' ability to access our price and product availability information or place orders. Further, as we are dependent upon our ability to gather and promptly transmit accurate information to key decision makers, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected if our information systems do not allow us to transmit accurate information, even for a short period of time. Failure to properly or adequately address these issues could impact our ability to perform necessary business operations, which could adversely affect our reputation, competitive position, business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, the information systems of companies we acquire may not be sufficient to meet our standards or we may not be able to successfully convert them to provide acceptable information on a timely and cost-effective basis. Furthermore, we must attract and retain qualified people to operate our systems, expand and improve them, integrate new programs effectively with our existing programs, and convert to new systems efficiently when required. Any disruption to our business due to such issues, or an increase in our costs to cover these issues that is greater than what we have anticipated, could have an adverse effect on our financial results and operations.
Our customers rely increasingly on our electronic ordering and information systems as a source for product information, including availability and pricing. There can be no assurance that our systems will not fail or experience disruptions, and any significant failure or disruption of these systems could prevent us from making sales, ordering and delivering products and otherwise conducting our business. Many of our customers use our website to check real-time product availability, see their customized pricing and place orders. The Internet and individual websites have experienced a number of disruptions and slowdowns. In addition, some websites have experienced security breakdowns. While our website has not experienced any material disruptions or security breakdowns, any disruptions or breaches in security or a breach that compromises sensitive information could harm our relationship with our vendors, customers and other business partners. Any material disruption of our website or the Internet in general could impair our order processing or prevent our vendors and customers from accessing information and cause us to lose business.
Acquisitions - Our growth strategy includes potential acquisitions of companies that complement or expand our existing business. Acquisitions involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
We have and expect to continue to acquire companies that complement or expand our business in the United States or internationally. This expansion increases the complexity of our business and places a significant strain on our management, operations, technical performance, financial resources and internal financial control and reporting functions, and there are no assurances that we will be able to manage it effectively. Our personnel, systems, procedures, and controls may not be adequate to effectively manage our future operations, especially as we employ personnel in multiple domestic and international locations. We may not be able to hire, train, retain and manage the personnel required to address our growth. Failure to effectively manage our growth opportunities could damage our reputation, limit our future growth, negatively affect our operating results, and harm our business.
Acquisitions may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including the following: distraction of management's attention away from normal business operations; insufficient revenue generation to offset liabilities assumed and expenses associated with the acquisition; difficulty in the integration of acquired businesses, including new employees, business systems and technology; inability to adapt to challenges of new markets, including geographies, products and services, or to attract new sources of profitable

business from expansion of products or services; exposure to new regulations; and issues not discovered in our due diligence process, such as unknown liabilities, fraud, cultural or business environment issues or that may not have adequate internal controls as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Also, we may be unable to retain or replace key employees of our acquired companies. Our operations may be adversely impacted by an acquisition that is not suited for us, is improperly executed, or substantially increases our debt. In addition, adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates could increase the purchase price paid, including earnout payments. Any of these factors could adversely affect our operating results or financial condition. Moreover, future acquisitions could result in dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization of intangible assets, or impairment of goodwill. Acquisitions could also result in a dilutive impact to our earnings. No assurances can be given that we will be able to dispose of business units on favorable terms or without significant costs, nor can there be any assurance future acquisitions will not result in future impairment charges.
International operations - Our international operations expose us to risks that are different from, or possibly greater than, the risks we are exposed to domestically.
We currently have facilities in twelve countries outside the United States and sell products in a number of others. A significant portion of our revenue is derived from our international operations. These operations are subject to a variety of risks that are in addition to the risks that we face domestically or are similar risks but with potentially greater exposure. These risks include:

• | Fluctuations of foreign currency, exchange controls and currency devaluations;

• | Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods;

• | Changes in, or expiration of, various foreign incentives that provide economic benefits to us;

• | Changes in labor laws and regulations affecting our ability to hire and retain employees;

• | Difficulties in staffing and managing operations in foreign countries;

• | Changes in international trade laws, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement, affecting our import and export activities, including export license requirements, restrictions on the export of certain technology, and tariff changes;

• | Changes in the interpretation and enforcement of laws (in particular related to items such as duty and taxation);

• | Potential political and economic instability and changes in governments;

• | Compliance with foreign and domestic import and export regulations and anti-corruption laws, including the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or similar laws of other jurisdictions for our business activities outside the United States, the violation of which could result in severe penalties including monetary fines, criminal proceedings and suspension of export privileges;

• | Terrorist or military actions that result in destruction or seizure of our assets or suspension or disruption of our operations or those of our customers;

• | Natural disasters, power shortages, telecommunication failures, water shortages, fires, medical epidemics or pandemics, and other manmade or natural disasters or business interruptions in a region or specific country;

• | Potential regulatory changes, including foreign environmental restrictions; and

• | Different general economic conditions.

Our company conducts business in the United States, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Latin American countries, which exposes our business to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Significant volatility and fluctuations in the rates of exchange for the U.S. dollar against currencies such as the Brazilian real, euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Colombian peso, Chilean peso and other currencies may also negatively impact our customer pricing, operating results and acquisition purchase prices, including earnout payments. While we manage our short-term exposure to fluctuations in the value of currencies using various derivatives or other financial instruments, such attempts to mitigate these risks are costly and not always successful. Our ability to engage in such mitigation may decrease or become even more costly as a result of more volatile market conditions.
Exchange rate fluctuations may cause our international results to fluctuate significantly when translated into U.S. dollars. Developing economies, such as Brazil, could have sudden and drastic changes in foreign exchange rates compared to others. The uncertainty of certain European countries to continue to service their sovereign debt obligations and the related European financial restructuring efforts may cause the value of the euro and other European currencies to fluctuate. Currency variations also contribute to variations in sales of products in impacted jurisdictions, and our vendors may change product pricing due to currency changes. Thus, the volatility in exchange rates can have tremendous impact on our customers' ability to purchase our products.
The value of our equity investment in foreign subsidiaries may fluctuate based on changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These fluctuations may result in losses in the event a foreign subsidiary is sold or closed at a time when the foreign currency is weaker than when we initially invested. We are unable to predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our business, financial position or operating results.

The potential criminal penalties for violations of export regulations and anti-corruption laws, particularly the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, data privacy laws and environmental laws and regulations in many jurisdictions, create heightened risks for our international operations. In the event that a governing regulatory body determined that we have violated applicable export regulations or anti-corruption laws, we could be fined significant sums, incur sizable legal defense costs and/or our export capabilities could be restricted, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business and reputation.
In addition, in foreign markets we are more dependent upon third party providers of key services, such as third party freight forwarders and third party warehouses in Europe and Latin America. We also rely on third party legal advisors to provide guidance on trade compliance issues and information systems providers to provide services related to denied party screening. Adverse changes in any of these third party services could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As we expand our international operations, we expect these risks to increase.
Brazilian and Latin America operations - We face special political, economic and regulatory risks by doing business in Brazil and other Latin American countries, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
As a result of our April 2011 acquisition of all of the shares of CDC Brasil Distribuidora de Tecnologias Especiais LTDA ("CDC' or "ScanSource Brasil") and our January 2015 acquisition of all of the shares of Intersmart Comércio Importação Exportação de Equipamentos Eletrônicos, S.A., and its related entities (collectively “Network1”), we have substantial operations in Brazil and other Latin American countries and face risks related to these country's complex tax, labor, trade compliance and consumer protection laws and regulations. We may now have exposure to the complex tax structure in Brazil, where we have noted that several other companies have had issues with Brazilian tax authorities that have impacted earnings. Additionally, developing markets such as Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru have greater political volatility, greater vulnerability to infrastructure and labor disruptions, are more likely than developed economies to experience market, currency and interest rate fluctuations and may have higher inflation. In addition, doing business in these countries poses additional challenges such as finding qualified employees, underdeveloped infrastructure, and identifying and retaining qualified suppliers and service providers among other risks. Any of these factors could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, in developing markets it may be common for others to engage in business practices prohibited by laws and regulations applicable to us, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or similar local anti-bribery laws. These laws generally prohibit companies and their employees, contractors or agents from making improper payments to government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Failure to comply with these laws could subject us to civil and criminal penalties that could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, competition in developing markets is increasing as our competitors grow their global operations. Our success in integrating our Brazilian and additional Latin American operations is critical to our growth strategy. If we cannot successfully increase our business in these countries, our product sales, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
While our operations expose us to general economic risks related to Latin America, we cannot assure you that favorable economic, political, and other business conditions will exist in the future. A general economic recession in the region or any volatility or uncertainty related to the conditions to do business in the region could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Growth strategies - If we fail to effectively manage and implement our organic growth strategies, we will experience a negative effect on our business and financial results.
A significant component of our growth strategy has been to add new vendors and products, and we expect to be able to enter new product markets in the future. Expansion of our existing product markets and entry into new product markets divert the use of our resources and systems, require additional resources that might not be available (or available on acceptable terms), result in new or more intense competition, may require longer implementation times or greater start-up expenditures than anticipated, and may otherwise fail to achieve the desired results in a timely fashion, if at all. In addition, while we have been very successful in adding new vendors in the past, we already represent most of the significant vendors in our primary areas of focus, and there is regular consolidation among our vendors. As a result, there may be fewer expansion opportunities of this nature in the future. If we are unable to increase our sales and earnings by expanding our product offerings in a cost effective manner, then our revenues may not grow.

Our ability to successfully manage our growth will require continued enhancement of our operational, managerial and financial resources and controls. Our failure to effectively manage our growth would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, our growth may increase our working capital requirements and as a result, we may require additional equity or debt financing. Such financing may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, if at all.
Vendor relationships - Terminations of a distribution or services agreement or a significant change in supplier terms, authorizations, or lack of product availability, or conditions of sale could negatively affect our operating margins, revenues or the level of capital required to fund our operations.
A significant percentage of our net sales relates to products sold to us by relatively few vendors. As a result of such concentration risk, terminations of supply or services agreements or a change in terms or conditions of sale from one or more of our vendors could negatively affect our operating margins, revenues or the level of capital required to fund our operations. Our vendors have the ability to make adverse changes in their sales terms and conditions, such as reducing the level of purchase discounts and rebates they make available to us. We have no guaranteed price or delivery agreements with our vendors. In certain product categories, limited price protection or return rights offered by our vendors may have a bearing on the amount of product we may be willing to stock. Our inability to pass through to our reseller customers the impact of these changes, as well as our failure to develop systems to manage ongoing vendor programs, could cause us to record inventory write-downs or other losses and could have significant negative impact on our gross margins.
We receive purchase discounts and rebates from some vendors based on various factors, including goals for quantitative and qualitative sales or purchase volume and customer related metrics. Certain purchase discounts and rebates may affect gross margins. Many purchase discounts from vendors are based on percentage increases in sales of products. Our operating results could be negatively impacted if these rebates or discounts are reduced or eliminated or if our vendors significantly increase the complexity of their refund procedures and thus costs for us to receive such rebates.
Our ability to obtain particular products or product lines in the required quantities and our ability to fulfill customer orders on a timely basis is critical to our success. Our manufacturers have experienced product supply shortages from time to time due to the inability of certain suppliers to supply certain products on a timely basis. As a result, we have experienced, and may in the future continue to experience, short-term shortages of specific products. We cannot provide any assurances that vendors will be able to maintain an adequate supply of products to fulfill all of our customer orders on a timely basis.
In addition, vendors who currently distribute their products through us, may decide to shift to or substantially increase their existing distribution with other distributors, their own dealer networks, or directly to resellers or end-users. Suppliers have, from time to time, made efforts to reduce the number of distributors with which they do business. This could result in more intense competition as distributors strive to secure distribution rights with these vendors, which could have an adverse impact on our operating results. Our reputation, sales and profitability may suffer if vendors are not able to provide us with an adequate supply of products to fulfill our customer orders on a timely basis or if we cannot otherwise obtain particular products or a product lines.
Vendor consolidation may also lead to changes in the nature and terms of relationships with our vendors. The loss or deterioration of a major vendor relationship would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Customer relationships - We operate in a highly competitive environment and good customer relations are critical to our success. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain and expand our customer relationships or acquire new customers.
Meeting our customers' needs quickly and fairly is critical to our business success. Our transactions with our customers are generally performed on a purchase order basis rather than under long term supply agreements. Our customers generally do not have an obligation to purchase from us. Therefore, our customers can readily choose to purchase from other distributors. From time to time, we experience shortages in availability of some products from vendors, and this impacts our customers' decisions regarding whether to make purchases from us. Anything that negatively impacts our customer relations also can negatively impact our operating results. Accordingly, our sales can vary as a result of fluctuations in pricing, product availability, purchasing patterns of end-users and general competitive and economic conditions.
Vendor consolidation - Vendor consolidation that could lead to changes in the nature and terms of relationships with our major vendors could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
A significant amount of our inventory purchases are made from a limited number of vendors. Our reliance on these vendors leaves us vulnerable to having an inadequate supply of required products, price increases, late deliveries, and poor product quality. Like other distributors in our industry, we occasionally experience supplier shortages and are unable to purchase our desired volume
10

of products. Increasingly, our vendors are combining and merging together and thus our vendors are becoming more consolidated. As a result, if we are unable to maintain an adequate supply of products, or if vendors do not regularly invest in, introduce to us, and/or make new products available to us for distribution, our revenue and gross profit could suffer considerably. Finally, we cannot provide any assurance that particular products, or product lines, will be available to us, or available in quantities sufficient to meet customer demand. Any limits to product access could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
People - The departure, transition or replacement of key personnel could significantly impact results of our operations. If we cannot continue to hire and retain high quality employees, our business and financial results may be negatively affected.
Our operating results could be adversely affected by increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover, or increased salary and benefit costs. Like most businesses, our employees are important to our success and we are dependent in part on our ability to retain the services of our key management, sales, IT, operational, finance and administrative personnel. We have built our business on a set of core values, and we attempt to hire employees who are committed to these values. We want to hire and retain employees who will fit our culture of providing exceptional service to our vendors and customers. In order to compete and to continue to grow, we must attract, retain and motivate employees, including those in executive, senior management, sales, marketing, logistics, technical support and other operating positions. Our worldwide management structure provides improved management of our operations and improved succession planning within our organization.
Many of our employees work in small teams to provide specific services to vendors and customers. They are trained to develop their knowledge of vendor products, programs and practices and customer business needs, as well as to enhance the skills required to provide exceptional service and to manage our business. As they gain experience and develop their knowledge and skills, our employees become highly desired by other businesses. Therefore, to retain our employees, we have to provide a satisfying work environment and competitive compensation and benefits. If our costs to retain our skilled employees increase, then our business and financial results may be negatively affected.
Our continued growth is also dependent, in part, on the skills, experience and efforts of our senior management, including but not limited to, Michael Baur, our Chief Executive Officer. We may not be successful in retaining the members of our senior management team or our other key employees. While we have entered into employment agreements with key executives and have obtained a key person life insurance policy on our CEO's life, the loss of the services of Mr. Baur or any member of our senior management team could also have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The process of identifying management successors creates uncertainty and could become a distraction to our senior management and the Board. We may not be successful in attracting qualified candidates to replace key positions when necessary. As a result, the transition process and the identification and recruitment of candidates to fill senior management positions may be disruptive to our business or operations.
Competition - We experience intense competition in all of our markets. Such competition could result in reduced margins and loss of our market share.
The markets that we operate in are highly competitive. We compete on the basis of price, product availability, speed and accuracy of delivery, effectiveness of sales and marketing programs, credit availability, ability to tailor solutions to the needs of our customers, quality and breadth of product line and services and availability of technical and product information. Our competitors include local, regional, national and international distributors as well as hardware manufacturers (including most of our vendors) that sell directly to resellers and to end-users. In addition, we compete with master resellers that sell to franchisees, third party dealers and end-users. Certain of our current and potential competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we have and may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Certain smaller, regional competitors, who are specialty two-tier or mixed model master resellers, may also be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Competition has increased for our sales units as broad line and other value-added distributors have entered into the specialty technology markets. Such competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of our market share.
As a result of intense price competition in our industry, our gross margins and our operating profit margins have historically been narrow, and we expect them to be narrow in the future. To remain competitive, we may be forced to offer more credit or extended payment terms to our customers. This could result in an increase in our need for capital, increase our financing costs, increase our bad debt expenses and have a negative impact on our financial results. We do not offer any assurance that we will not lose market share, or that we will not be forced in the future to reduce our prices in response to the action of our competitors and thereby experience a reduction in our gross margins. We expect continued intense competition as current competitors expand their operations and new competitors enter the market. Our inability to compete successfully against current and future competitors could cause our revenue and earnings to decline.

Laws and regulations - Changes in tax laws and other laws and regulations may adversely impact us.
We are subject to a wide range of local, state and federal laws and regulations both in the United States and in the other countries in which we operate. While we plan our operations based upon existing and anticipated laws and regulations, we cannot anticipate every change and can have only little, if any, impact on others. When new legislation is enacted with minimal advance notice, or when new interpretations or applications of existing laws are made, we may need to implement changes in our policies or structure. We are particularly susceptible to changes in income and other tax laws, laws regulating international trade, and accounting and securities disclosure laws and regulations. To a lesser degree, changes in environmental regulation, including electronic waste recovery legislation, may impact us. In each case, a change in the laws or regulations that we are required to comply with could have an adverse impact on our business operations or financial results.
Violation of any laws, rules, or regulations applicable to our business could result in fines or other actions by regulatory agencies, increased cost of doing business, reduced profits, or restrictions on our ability to conduct business such as our ability to export products or bans on our ability to offer certain services. Additionally, any significant changes, developments, or new interpretations of laws, rules, or regulations applicable to our business will increase our costs of compliance and may further restrict our overseas client base, may require significant management and other resources to respond appropriately, and may harm our operating results.
Global economic instability - Current world-wide economic conditions and market disruptions may adversely affect our business, pricing strategy and results of operations.
The results of our business are subject to the effects of global economic conditions. The slow recovery from the past economic downturn and the continued uncertainty regarding the future health of the global economy may adversely affect revenues, margins, earnings and growth rates. High levels of unemployment and reduced consumer confidence in various markets we have operations in can affect both our company directly and indirectly by affecting other companies that we do business with.
Financial markets throughout the world could experience extreme disruption, including, among other things, severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, rating downgrades of certain investments and declining valuations and pricing volatility of others, volatile energy costs, geopolitical issues and failure and potential failures of major financial institutions. These developments and/or a related general economic downturn may adversely impact our business and financial condition in a number of ways. Economic slowdowns can lead to reduced information technology spending by end users, which can adversely affect our sales. Economic instability has increased competitive pressure throughout the channels we serve, resulting in pricing pressures that have decreased our margins. This effect may continue in the future.
Global economic downturn and instability may also result in changes in vendor terms and conditions, such as rebates, cash discounts and cooperative marketing efforts, which may result in downward pressure on our gross margins. Tightening of credit in financial markets and general economic downturn may adversely affect the ability of our reseller customers, vendors and service providers to obtain financing for significant purchases and operations and to perform their obligations under our agreements with them. Instability in financial and currency markets or changes in intergovernmental relations can also lead to limited access to U.S. dollars or other currencies by our customers. This can result in a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products and services, negatively impact our ability to collect our accounts receivable on a timely basis, result in additional reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable being required and lead to elevated levels of obsolete inventory.
We continue to be unable to predict any duration of any economic downturn and disruption in financial markets or their effects on our business, financial position or results of operations.
Credit exposure - We have credit exposure to our reseller customers. Any adverse trends in their businesses could cause us to suffer credit losses.
We have credit exposure to our reseller customers and negative trends in their businesses could increase our credit risk. As is customary in our industry, we extend credit to our reseller customers, and most of our sales are on open accounts. We may be unable to collect on receivables if our reseller customers experience decreases in demand for their products and services, do not manage their businesses adequately, or otherwise become less able to pay due to adverse economic conditions or refinancing events. As we grow and compete for business, our typical payment terms tend to be longer, and therefore may increase our credit risk.
While we evaluate our resellers' qualifications for credit and monitor our extensions of credit, these efforts cannot prevent all credit losses, and credit losses in excess of historical levels would negatively impact our performance. In addition, for financial reporting purposes, we estimate future credit losses and establish an appropriate reserve. To the extent that our credit losses exceed those
12

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
reserves, our financial performance will be negatively impacted. There is no guarantee that our operating expenses will not increase as a result of the recognition of bad debt expense from our reseller customers. If there is a substantial deterioration in the collectability of our receivables or if we are unable to collect under existing credit insurance policies, or we fail to take other actions to adequately mitigate such credit risk, our earnings, cash flows and our ability to utilize receivable-based financing could deteriorate.
In addition, extending credit to international customers creates additional risks. It is often more difficult to evaluate credit of a customer or obtain credit protections in our international operations. Also, credit cycles and collection periods are typically longer in our international operations. As a result of these factors and other challenges in extending credit to international customers, we generally face greater credit risk from sales internationally compared to domestic sales.
Centralized functions - We have centralized a number of functions to provide efficient support to our business. As a result, a loss or reduction of use of one of our locations would have an adverse effect on our business operations and financial results.
In order to be as efficient as possible, we centralize a number of critical functions. For instance, we currently distribute products in North America from a single warehouse near Memphis, Tennessee. Similarly, for the primary business operations, we utilize a single information system based in the United States for our North American and European operations, while our Latin American operations have separate systems. While we have backup systems and business continuity plans, any significant or lengthy interruption of our ability to provide these centralized functions would significantly impair our ability to continue normal business operations. In addition, the centralization of these functions increases our exposure to local risks, such as the availability of qualified employees and the lessening of competition for critical services, such as freight and communications.
Although we have business interruption insurance, not all losses are covered, and an uninsured loss from electrical or telephone failure, fire or other casualty, water damage, theft, or other disruption would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, there are limits on all of our insurance coverage, and it is possible that losses might exceed that coverage.
Inventory - The value of our inventory may be adversely affected by market and other factors.
Our business, like that of other distributors, is subject to the risk that the value of our inventory will be adversely affected by price reductions by manufacturers or by technological changes affecting the usefulness or desirability of our products or by foreign currency fluctuations. The electronic components and computer products industries are subject to rapid technological change, new and enhanced products, changes in customer needs and changes in industry standards, which can contribute to a decline in value or obsolescence of inventory. Under the terms of most of our vendor agreements and the policy of most manufacturers of specialty technology products, we have some price protection and stock rotation opportunities with respect to slow-moving or obsolete inventory items. However, these protections are limited in scope and do not protect against all declines in inventory value, excess inventory, or product obsolescence, and in some instances we may not be able to fulfill all necessary conditions or successfully manage such price protection or stock rotation opportunities. In addition, these industry practices are sometimes not reflected in vendor agreements and their application in a particular situation is dependent upon negotiations between our vendors and us. As a result, from time-to-time we are required to write down the value of excess and obsolete inventory, and should any of these write-downs occur at a significant level, they could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Also, we may have to write-down our inventory due to water damage, theft or other factors that may decrease our number of merchantable products.
Should there be an economic downturn, it is possible that prices may decline due to an oversupply of product, and therefore, there may be a greater risk of declines in inventory value. In addition, our vendors may become insolvent and unable to fulfill their product obligations to us. Significant declines in inventory value in excess of established inventory reserves or dramatic changes in prevailing technologies could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Narrow gross profit margins - Our narrow gross profit margins significantly impact our operating results.
Our industry is highly competitive and characterized by narrow gross profit margins and operating profit margins. Because of our narrow margins, fluctuations in sales can have a magnified impact on our overall operating results. We may not be able to reduce our operating expenses as a percentage of revenues to mitigate any further reductions in profit margins in the future. If we cannot proportionately decrease our cost structure in response to competitive price pressures, our business and operating results could suffer.

Internal control over financial reporting - The internal control structure we have in place over our financial reporting may not be effective in detecting fraud or errors in a timely manner, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business or the market price of our securities.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is required to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in each Annual Report on Form 10-K. Moreover, an independent registered public accounting firm must attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or independent registered public accounting firm determines that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective as defined under Section 404, investor perceptions and our reputation may be adversely affected and the market price of our stock could decline.
A weakness in our internal control over financial reporting may be identified in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in additional material weaknesses, cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations, or result in material misstatements of our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and annual auditor attestation reports regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The existence of a material weakness could result in errors in our financial statements resulting in a restatement of financial statements, which could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, leading to a decline in our share price. Even effective internal controls cannot provide absolute assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. We do not expect our internal control over financial reporting to detect all errors or fraudulent conduct.
Cyber security risk - Our reputation and business may be harmed from cyber security risk and we may be subject to legal claims if there is loss, disclosure or misappropriation of or access to our customers' or our business partners' or our own information or other breaches of our information security.
We make extensive use of online services and centralized data processing, including through third party service providers. The secure maintenance and transmission of customer information is a critical element of our operations. Our information technology and other systems that maintain and transmit customer or employee information or those of service providers or business partners may be compromised by a malicious third party penetration of our network security, or that of a third party service provider or business partner, or impacted by advertent or inadvertent actions or inactions by our employees, or those of a third party service provider or business partner. Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate our network security, or that of our third party service provider, and misappropriate or compromise our confidential information, create system disruptions, or cause shutdowns. As a result, our customers' information may be lost, disclosed, accessed or taken without our customers' consent.
In addition, our third party service providers and other business partners process and maintain proprietary business information and data related to our business-to-business customers, suppliers and other business partners. Our information technology and other systems that maintain and transmit this information, or those of service providers or business partners, may also be compromised by a malicious third party penetration of our network security or that of a third party service provider or business partner, or impacted by advertent or inadvertent actions or inactions by our employees or those of a third party service provider or business partner. As a result, our business information, customer, supplier, and other business partner data may be lost, disclosed, accessed or taken without their consent.
We are subject to regulations relating to customer privacy and the protection of personal information. Any such loss, disclosure or misappropriation of, or access to, customers' or business partners' information or other breach of our information security can result in legal claims or legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and actions, may have a serious impact on our reputation and may adversely affect our businesses, operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, the loss, disclosure or misappropriation of our business information may adversely affect our businesses, operating results and financial condition.
Third party logistics and warehousing providers - We use third party logistics and warehousing providers in certain parts of the world that may expose us to risks or liabilities based on their execution that may adversely affect our business operations or financial results.
In Europe, Brazil and other Latin American countries, we use third parties to provide warehousing and logistics services in order to provide cost effective operations and scale in certain regions. The failure or inability of one or more of these third parties to deliver products from suppliers to us or products from us to our customers for any reason could disrupt our business and harm our reputation and operating results. We work closely with our third party logistics and warehousing providers to anticipate issues,
14

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
and also review public information regarding their financial health. However, issues may not be identified timely, which may lead to lack of or poor execution, loss or litigation. Additionally, deterioration of the financial condition of our logistical and warehousing providers could have an adverse impact on our logistical processes. Poor financial condition of these providers could result in delayed responsiveness or delivery failure, which would ultimately affect our responsiveness to our customers and thus may adversely affect our business, operations and financial performance.
Reliance on third parties - We are dependent on third parties for services including the delivery of a majority of our products. Changes in shipping terms or the failure or inability of our third party shippers to perform could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
We rely on arrangements with third parties to perform certain services our business depends on and services for our customers, which, if not performed by these third parties in accordance with the terms of the arrangement could result in significant disruptions or costs to our organization, including monetary damages and an adverse effect on our customer relationships.
In particular, we are dependent upon major shipping companies, including FedEx and UPS, for the shipment of our products to and from our centralized warehouses. Changes in shipping terms, or the inability of these third party shippers to perform effectively (whether as a result of mechanical failure, casualty loss, labor stoppage, or any other reason), could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, we have experienced significant increases in shipping costs due to increases in fuel costs. Additionally, deterioration of the financial condition of our carriers could have an adverse impact on our logistical processes and shipping costs. Poor financial condition of our freight carriers could result in delayed responsiveness in their service lead times, which would ultimately affect our responsiveness to our customers. Additionally, if our carriers were to increase our shipping costs, it may adversely affect our financial results if we are unable to pass on these higher costs to our customers.
Fair value measurement of contingent consideration, goodwill and other intangible assets - Changes in the fair value of the assets and liabilities measured at fair value could have a significant effect on our reported earnings.
We have structured acquisitions with an upfront payment and additional earnout payments. The acquisition of CDC was structured having an upfront payment with five annual cash installments based upon the financial performance of CDC for the twelve month periods ended on June 30, 2011 through June 30, 2015. The acquisition of Imago Group plc ("Imago ScanSource") was structured having an upfront payment with two additional annual cash installments based upon the financial performance of Imago ScanSource for the twelve month periods ended September 30, 2015 through September 30, 2016. The acquisition of Network1 was structured having an upfront payment with four additional annual cash installments based upon the financial performance of Network1 for the twelve month periods ended June 30, 2015 through June 30, 2018.
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, a liability for the contingent consideration driven by an earn-out must be recorded at the onset of the purchase and must be revalued at every reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded as an adjustment to operating income. These changes can occur due to changes in estimated future financial results, the probabilities of achieving these results, the discount rate reflective of our creditworthiness, and the market risk premium associated with the Brazilian market. Both gains and losses can occur due to changes in these fair value estimates, thus increasing volatility of our earnings. We expect to continue to use this structure for future acquisitions.
On at least an annual basis, we are required to assess our goodwill and other intangible assets, including but not limited to customer relationships and trade names, for impairment. This includes continuously monitoring events and circumstances that could trigger an impairment test outside of our annual impairment testing date in the fourth quarter of each year. Testing goodwill and other intangibles for impairment requires the use of significant estimates and other inputs outside of our control. If the carrying value of goodwill in any of our goodwill reporting units or other intangible assets is determined to exceed their respective fair values, we may be required to record significant impairment charges that would adversely affect our operating results. A global economic downturn could impact our prior judgments and assumptions about the fair value of our business, and we may be required to record impairment charges of goodwill or other identifiable intangible assets in the future.
Goodwill impairments - Goodwill impairments and impairments of long-lived assets could have a material non-cash adverse effect on our results of operations.
We test our goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year for all reporting units, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would warrant such a review. We performed our annual impairment test for fiscal years 2015 and 2014 and determined that no goodwill impairment charge was necessary. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 we recorded a non-cash charge for goodwill impairment in our European Communications and Brazilian POS & Barcode reporting units.

In the future, should the recent economic uncertainty continue in Latin America, Europe, or other global economies, the fair value of one or more of our reporting units may decrease below its carrying amount and future goodwill impairments that may be material could be recognized. Any declines resulting in a goodwill impairment or long-lived asset impairment may result in material non-cash charges to our earnings. Impairment charges would also reduce our consolidated shareholders' equity and increase our debt-to-total-capitalization ratio, which could negatively impact our credit rating and access to the public debt and equity markets.
Accounting rules - Changes in accounting rules or standards could have a significant adverse effect on our reported earnings.
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles are subject to interpretations by various governing bodies including the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. These governing bodies create and interpret appropriate accounting standards. Future periodic assessments required by current or new accounting standards may result in additional non-cash charges and/or changes in presentation or disclosure. A change from current accounting standards could have a significant adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard for contracts with customers that will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. This guidance will be applicable to the Company at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2019. This change in accounting standard could have a significant adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Terrorist or military operations - Future terrorist or military operations could result in a disruption of our operation or loss of assets in certain markets.
Future terrorist or military actions, in the United States or abroad, could result in destruction or seizure of assets or suspension or disruption of our operations. Additionally, such actions could affect the operations of our suppliers or customers, resulting in loss of access to products, potential losses on supplier programs, loss of business, higher losses on receivables or inventory, and/or other disruptions in our business, which could negatively affect our operating results. We do not carry broad insurance covering such terrorist or military actions, and even if we were to seek such coverage, the cost would likely be prohibitive.
Natural disasters and other crises - Exposure to adverse weather conditions or other emergency situations could result in a disruption of our operation or loss of assets in certain markets.
Extreme weather conditions such as floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or other natural disasters, electrical failures, medical pandemics or epidemics, telecommunication failures, or other similar events may disrupt our ability to distribute products. Any of these events could significantly and adversely affect our operational results. Particularly, these events could materially impact us because our business has centralized business operations and thus any major damage done to one of our facilities could greatly impact our operations. While we may mitigate some of this risk through insurance, we cannot guarantee that our losses will not exceed the value of our policies. Any disruption in business may adversely affect our operations or damage relationships with customers.
Failure to comply with environmental regulations - We are subject to various environmental regulations, and failing to comply with any requirements may adversely affect our business operations or financial results.
We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations addressing environmental and other impacts from product disposal, use of hazardous materials in products, recycling of products at the end of their useful life and other related matters. Compliance with these environmental laws may have a material adverse effect on our business. These laws include the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive, ("RoHS"), RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU ("RoHS 2") and the European Union Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive ("WEEE") as enacted by individual European Union countries and other similar legislation adopted in North America. These directives can make companies involved in the production or distribution of electrical goods, including computers and printers, responsible for collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of recovered products. In addition, these directives and similar legislation can have an impact on the types and design of products we are able to sell in jurisdictions that have adopted such restrictions. While we strive to ensure we are in compliance with all applicable regulations, certain of these regulations impose strict liability. Additionally, we may be held responsible for the prior activities of entities that we have acquired or will acquire in the future. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in substantial costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, as well as third party claims for property damage or personal injury. Further,

environmental laws may become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with violation, which could adversely affect our business, financial position or results of operations.
Liquidity and capital resources - Market factors may increase the cost and availability of capital. Additional capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms to fund our working capital needs and growth.
Our business requires significant levels of capital to finance accounts receivable and product inventory that is not financed by trade creditors. We have an increased demand for capital when our business is expanding, including through acquisitions. Changes in payment terms with either suppliers or customers could increase our capital requirements. We have historically relied upon cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, secured and unsecured borrowings, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings under a subsidiary's line of credit to satisfy our capital needs and to finance growth. While we believe that our existing sources of liquidity will provide sufficient resources to meet our current working capital and cash requirements, if we require an increase in capital to meet our future business needs, such capital may not be available to us on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Changes in how lenders rate our credit worthiness, as well as macroeconomic factors such as an economic downturn and global economic instability may restrict our ability to raise capital in adequate amounts or on terms acceptable to us, and the failure to do so could harm our ability to operate our business.
In addition, our cash and cash equivalents are deposited with various financial institutions located in the various countries in which we operate. We endeavor to monitor these financial institutions regularly for credit quality; however, we are exposed to risk of loss on such funds or we may experience significant disruptions in our liquidity needs if one or more of these financial institutions were to suffer bankruptcy or similar restructuring.
Volatility of Stock Price- The trading price of our common stock
The stock market as a whole and the trading prices of companies in the wholesale electronics industry have been volatile. Companies in our industry experience significant quarter-to-quarter fluctuations. This broad market and industry volatility could significantly reduce the price of our common stock at any time, without regard to our own operating performance. This volatility may affect the price at which you could sell your common stock. Our stock price is likely to continue to be volatile and subject to price and volume fluctuations in response to market and other factors; variations in our quarterly operating results from our expectations or those of securities analysts or investors; downward revisions in securities analysts’ estimates; and announcement by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, transactions, partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments.
A material decline in the price of our common stock may result in the assertion of certain claims against us, and/or the commencement of inquiries and/or investigations against us. A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital, if needed, and the inability for you to obtain a favorable price at which you could sell your shares.
Quarterly fluctuations - Our net sales and operating results are dependent on a number of factors. Our net sales may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, and these fluctuations may cause volatility in our stock price.
Our net sales and operating results may fluctuate quarterly as a result of changes in demand for our products and services, the introduction of new technology, actions by our competitors, changes in vendors' prices or price protection policies, changes in vendors' business practices or strategies, changes in freight rates, the timing or the addition of operating expenses to support our growth, the timing of major marketing or other service projects, product supply shortages, changes in product mix, the impact of possible disruption caused by integration and reorganization of technology systems, currency fluctuations in countries we have operations, the loss of a major supplier or customer, occurrence of unexpected events, impairments and the general economic factors referenced above. In addition, a substantial portion of our net sales in each quarter results from orders booked in that quarter, which are difficult to accurately forecast in advance. As a result, our performance in one period may vary significantly from our performance in the preceding quarter, and may differ significantly from our forecast of performance from quarter to quarter. The impact of these variances may cause volatility in our stock price. Additionally, any past financial performance should not be considered an indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in the future as our operating results may fluctuate significantly quarter to quarter. Our narrow operating margins may magnify the impact of the foregoing factors on our operating results. The results of any quarterly period are not indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.
Litigation - We routinely are involved in litigation that can be costly and lead to adverse results.
17

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
In the ordinary course of our business, we are involved in a wide range of disputes, some of which result in litigation. In addition, as a public company with a large shareholder base, we are susceptible to class-action and other litigation resulting from disclosures that we make and our other activities. Litigation is expensive to bring and defend, and the outcome of litigation can be adverse and significant. Not all adverse outcomes can be anticipated, and applicable accounting rules do not always require or permit the establishment of a reserve until a final result has occurred or becomes probable and estimable. In some instances we are insured for the potential losses; in other instances we are not. An uninsured or underinsured adverse outcome in significant litigation could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We can make no assurances that we will ultimately be successful in our defense of any of these disputes. See Item 3. "Legal Proceedings" for further discussion of our material legal matters.

ITEM 7. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Certain statements within this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A"), are not historical facts and contain "forward-looking statements" as described in the "safe harbor" provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from those projected. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: our dependence upon information systems and the utilization and further implementation of a new ERP system without business disruption and in a timely and cost efficient manner; our ability to integrate acquisitions, and effectively manage and implement our growth strategies; our ability to manage the potential adverse effects of operating in foreign jurisdictions, including, adverse changes in economic, political and market conditions in Europe, Latin America, and in Brazil; our ability to hedge or mitigate the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; our dependence on vendors, product supply, and availability; our ability to decrease our cost structure in response to competitive price pressures and changes in demand for our products; our ability to compete in new and existing markets that are highly competitive; our ability to retain and expand our existing and new customer relationships; our ability to retain key employees, particularly senior management; our ability to anticipate adverse changes in tax laws, accounting rules, and other laws and regulations; our ability to manage our business when general economic conditions are poor; our ability to manage and limit our credit exposure due to the deterioration in the financial condition of our customers; our ability to centralize certain functions to provide efficient support to our business; our ability to manage and negotiate successful pricing and stock rotation opportunities associated with inventory value decreases; our ability to remain profitable in the face of narrow margins; our ability to manage loss, disclosure or misappropriation of, or access to, information or other breaches of our information security; our dependence on third-party freight carriers; our ability to manage the distribution channels; our exposure to the volatility of earnings due to changes in fair value of assets and liabilities, including changes in the fair value of our earn-out obligation to the sellers of CDC, Imago ScanSource, and Network1, changes in accounting principles, and our ability to make estimates and the assumptions underlying the estimates, which could have an effect on earnings; our ability to avoid goodwill and long-lived asset impairments resulting in material non-cash charges to earnings; our ability to manage disruptions or loss of certain assets from terrorist or military operations or from natural disasters; our ability to comply with environmental regulations; our ability to obtain required capital at acceptable terms to fund our working capital and growth strategies; volatility of our earnings and stock price; and our ability to resolve or settle potentially adverse litigation matters. Additional discussion of these and other factors affecting our business and prospects is contained in our periodic filings with the SEC, copies of which can be obtained under the "Investors Relations" tab on our website at www.scansource.com. Please refer to the cautionary statements and important factors discussed in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Item 6. "Selected Financial Data" and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or other factors that affect the subject of these statements, except where we are expressly required to do so by law.

The Company's key vendors in communications technologies include Aruba, AudioCodes, Avaya, Cisco, Dialogic, Jabra, Mitel, Plantronics, Polycom, ShoreTel and Spectralink.
The Company has successfully implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system on time and on budget. In December 2013, the Company retained Systems Applications Products ("SAP") for software platform and implementation consulting services for a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system. The Company's European operations, excluding Imago ScanSource, began utilizing the new ERP system in February 2015, which is in the third quarter of the current fiscal year. The Company's North America operations began utilizing the new ERP system in July 2015, which is in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016.
On September 19, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Imago Group plc, a European value-added distributor of video and voice communications equipment and services, through a newly-formed special purchase entity. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company changed Imago's name to ScanSource Video Communications Ltd. (dba Imago ScanSource). Imago ScanSource is an addition to the Company’s Worldwide Communications and Services operating segment. This acquisition supports the Company’s strategy to be the leading value-added distributor of video, voice, and data solutions for resellers in Europe.
On January 13, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Intersmart Comércio Importação Exportação de Equipamentos Eletrônicos, S.A., a corporation organized under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, and its related entities (collectively “Network1”) from the Network1 shareholders. Network1 joins the Company’s Worldwide Communications and Services operating segment. ScanSource is committed to becoming the leading value-added distributor of communications solutions for resellers in Latin America, and this acquisition represents an important step in this strategy.
On August 18, 2015, the Company announced the execution of a letter of intent to purchase the assets of KBZ, a leading Cisco video conferencing distributor in the United States. The KBZ acquisition is subject to certain closing conditions, including the entrance into a definitive purchase agreement and satisfactory completion of due diligence.
During fiscal year 2014, the Barcode & Security distribution segment added 3D printing solutions as a product offering targeting the manufacturing, healthcare, aerospace, and automotive markets. 3D printing solutions replace and complement traditional methods and reduce the time and cost of designing new products by printing real parts directly from digital input.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company decided not to proceed with the development of the Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") project using the Microsoft Dynamics AX software, and we wrote off substantially all of the total capitalized expenses related to the original project. The non-cash charge recorded of $28.2 million before the effect of income taxes ($18.0 million net of the tax impact) included software development costs, hardware, software interfaces and other related costs. The remaining $0.6 million of the total $28.8 million capitalized balance was placed into service in July 2013. The software that was placed into service is not the ERP system itself, but an auxiliary database system designed to assist in the management of the product offerings. Prior to the write off, the capitalized software was included in property and equipment at cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We restructured our European Communications sales unit in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 in order to support a strategy for profitable growth. The new organizational structure provided focused business unit leadership, as well as dedicated merchandising, sales and technical support teams, at the appropriate scale. In addition, the Company moved certain European support functions to centralized global teams in the United States to gain efficiencies. The annualized cost savings in connection with the restructuring, principally associated with the elimination of positions, was estimated at approximately $3.1 million. The Company incurred approximately $1.2 million in associated costs, including related severance expenses. These restructuring costs, which were accrued in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Income Statements. For further discussion on our restructuring, refer to Note 15 -Restructuring Costs.
In January 2013, through the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Partner Services, Inc. ("PSI"), the Company filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Atlanta, Georgia against our former ERP software systems integration partner, Avanade, Inc. ("Avanade"). In June 2014, the parties reached a Settlement Agreement where both parties agreed to mutually dismiss all claims and counterclaims against the other in exchange for Avanade's payment to the Company of $15.0 million. The Company also reversed $2.0 million

in accrued liabilities for unpaid invoices received from Avanade and paid a contingency fee of $1.5 million to the law firm who represented the Company in the lawsuit. The settlement, net of attorney fees and reversal of accrued liabilities is included in the impairment charges (legal recovery) line item on the Consolidated Income Statements.
After we performed our annual goodwill impairment test in 2013, we determined that a goodwill impairment charge was necessary for our Brazilian POS & Barcode and European Communications reporting units. Prior to the test, no interim impairment indicators were identified. The Company's impairment testing included the determination of the reporting unit's fair value using market multiples and discounted cash flows modeling. The impairment charges were a result of reduced earnings and cash flow forecasts primarily due to the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations of future results. Furthermore, earnout payments made to CDC shareholders have been lower than those forecasted and assumed in the calculation of goodwill, at the time of acquisition. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded a non-cash charge for goodwill impairment of $5.4 million and $15.1 million in Europe and Brazil, respectively. During fiscal years 2015 and 2014, no impairment charges related to goodwill were recorded.
Our objective is to continue to grow profitable sales in the technologies we distribute and to focus on growth in security and communication technologies. We continue to evaluate strategic acquisitions to enhance our technological and geographic portfolios. In doing so, we face numerous challenges that require attention and resources. Certain business units and geographies are experiencing increased competition for the products we distribute. This competition may come in the form of pricing, credit terms, service levels and product availability. As this competition could affect both our market share and pricing of our products, we may change our strategy in order to effectively compete in the marketplace.
Cost Control/Profitability
Our operating income growth is driven not only by gross profits but by a disciplined control of operating expenses. Our operations feature scalable information systems, streamlined management, and centralized distribution, enabling us to achieve the economies of scale necessary for cost-effective order fulfillment. From inception, we have managed our general and administrative expenses by maintaining strong cost controls. However, in order to continue to grow in our markets, we have continued to invest in new technologies, specifically, security, communications and 3D technology; increased marketing efforts to recruit resellers; and enhanced employee benefit plans to retain employees.
Evaluating Financial Condition and Operating Performance
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures include non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, return on invested capital ("ROIC") and "constant currency," a measure that excludes the translation exchange impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates between reporting periods. We use non-GAAP financial measures to better understand and evaluate performance, including comparisons from period to period.
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and the non-GAAP financial measures that we report may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be considered in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, measurements of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS
To evaluate current period performance on a clearer and more consistent basis with prior periods, we disclose non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. We completed acquisitions on September 19, 2014 and January 13, 2015, both of which were structured with earnout payments. Given the size of the acquisitions and potential variability of fair value adjustments on operating results, non-GAAP results exclude amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, change in fair value of contingent consideration, and acquisition costs. Results for the year ended June 30, 2014 also exclude a legal recovery, net of attorney fees. Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS are useful in better assessing and understanding the Company's operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods.

Return on Invested Capital
Management uses ROIC as a performance measurement to assess efficiency at allocating capital under the Company's control to generate returns. Management believes this metric balances the Company's operating results with asset and liability management, is not impacted by capitalization decisions and is considered to have a strong correlation with shareholder value creation. In addition, it is easily computed, communicated and understood. ROIC also provides management a measure of the Company's profitability on a basis more comparable to historical or future periods.
ROIC assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operating performance. We believe the calculation of ROIC provides useful information to investors and is an additional relevant comparison of our performance during the year. In addition, the Company's Board of Directors uses ROIC in evaluating business and management performance. Certain management incentive compensation targets are set and measured relative to ROIC.
We calculate ROIC as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus change in fair value of contingent consideration and other non-GAAP adjustments ("adjusted EBITDA") divided by invested capital. Invested capital is defined as average equity plus average daily funded interest-bearing debt for the period. The following table summarizes annualized return on invested capital ratio for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.

(b) Average funded debt is calculated as the daily average amounts outstanding on our short-term and long-term interest-bearing debt.
The decrease in our return on invested capital from the prior year is largely due to higher average equity from retained earnings and increased average funded debt.

Comparison of Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Currency
In this Management Discussion and Analysis, we make references to "constant currency," a non-GAAP performance measure, that excludes the foreign exchange rate impact from fluctuations in the weighted average foreign exchange rates between reporting periods. Certain financial results are adjusted by translating current period results from currencies other than the U.S. dollar using the comparable weighted average foreign exchange rates from the prior year period. This information is provided to view financial results without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby enhancing comparability between reporting periods.
Net Sales
The Company has two reportable segments, which are based on product sales. The following table summarizes the Company’s net sales results by business segment and by geographic location for the comparable fiscal years ending June 30:

fiscal year 2015 net sales for this segment increased $39.2 million or 2.1% compared to the prior fiscal year. On a constant currency basis, net sales for fiscal 2015 increased $113.9 million or 6.1% compared to prior year. The increase in sales is primarily due to increased big deals for our North America and Europe POS & Barcode and Security businesses, partially offset by the unfavorable exchange rate variances.
Worldwide Communications & Services
The Communications & Services distribution segment consists of sales to technology resellers in our ScanSource Communications business units in North America, Europe and Brazil, Imago ScanSource in Europe, ScanSource Catalyst in North America, and ScanSource Services Group. During fiscal year 2015, net sales for this segment increased $265.8 million or 25.5% compared to the prior fiscal year. On a constant currency basis, net sales for fiscal 2015 increased $273.2 million or 26.3% compared to prior year. The increase in sales is primarily due to the inclusion of Imago ScanSource and Network1 sales, which we acquired in September 2014 and January 2015, respectively. In addition, we had year-over-year growth in our North America Communications and Catalyst businesses.
Gross Profit
The following table summarizes the Company’s gross profit for the fiscal years ended June 30:

Worldwide Barcode & Security
Gross profit dollars for the Barcode & Security distribution segment remained relatively flat for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to prior year primarily due to the foreign currency translation effect of our European and Brazilian operations. As a percentage of sales, gross profit margin decreased slightly to 8.8% for fiscal year 2015 as compared to 9.0% for fiscal year 2014. The reduction in gross profit margin is largely the result of a less favorable sales mix, driven by an increase in big deals with lower gross margins.
Worldwide Communications & Services
Gross profit dollars for the Communications & Services distribution segment increased for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to prior year primarily due to the inclusion of Imago ScanSource and Network1 results. As a percentage of sales, gross profit margin decreased to 12.2% for fiscal year 2015 compared to 12.8% for fiscal year 2014, primarily due to a less favorable sales mix and lower vendor program recognition as a percentage of sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $30.5 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily due to increased employee-related expenses and additional SG&A for the newly acquired Imago ScanSource and Network1, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.
In the fourth quarter of 2014, we recorded a $15.5 million legal recovery, net of attorney fees, related to our previously disclosed ERP litigation.
We have elected to present changes in fair value of the contingent consideration owed to former shareholders of CDC, Imago ScanSource, and Network1 separately from other selling, general and administrative expenses. In the current year, we have recorded a $2.7 million loss, driven by recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount, and the achievement of better than expected actual results for CDC and Imago ScanSource, partially offset by less than expected actual results for Network1.

Worldwide Barcode & Security
For the Barcode & Security distribution segment, operating income decreased $2.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to prior year. The decrease in operating income is largely due to increased employee related costs, partially offset by a reduction in bad debt expense. Operating income was also negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of our European and Brazilian operations.
Worldwide Communications & Services
For the Communications & Services distribution segment, operating income increased $1.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to increased sales volume due to the inclusion of Imago ScanSource and Network1 results, both acquired during the year.

*nm - percentages are not meaningful
Interest expense reflects interest incurred on borrowings and cross currency swap agreements, non-utilization fees from the Company's revolving credit facility and amortization of debt issuance costs. The interest expense increased principally from the addition of Network1 borrowings held during the year after the business was acquired in January 2015.
Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2015 was generated on interest-bearing customer receivables and interest earned on cash and cash equivalents.
Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses. Foreign exchange gains and losses are generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the British pound versus the euro, the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar and other currencies versus U.S. dollar. While we utilize foreign exchange contracts and debt in non-functional currencies to hedge foreign currency exposure, our foreign exchange policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative transactions. The Company's experienced higher foreign exchange losses as compared to prior year primarily from significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by the use of foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against currency exposures. In addition, the increase includes the higher costs of foreign exchange hedging for Network1, primarily related to the hedging of the U.S. dollar-denominated accounts payable.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $34.5 million and $41.3 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, reflecting an effective tax rate of 34.5% and 33.6%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the impact of non-deductible acquisition costs incurred in the current year. The Company expects the fiscal year 2016 effective tax rate to range between 34% to 35%.

Worldwide Barcode & Security
The Barcode & Security distribution segment consists of sales to technology resellers in our ScanSource POS & Barcode business units in North America, Europe and Latin America and our ScanSource Security business unit in North America. During fiscal year 2014 net sales for this segment increased $45.0 million or 2.5% compared to the prior fiscal year. On a constant currency basis, net sales for fiscal 2014 increased $46.4 million or 2.5% compared to prior year. The increase is primarily due to growth in all business units within Worldwide Barcode & Security, with the exception of the Miami export business.
Worldwide Communications & Services
The Communications & Services distribution segment consists of sales to technology resellers in our ScanSource Communications business units in North America and Europe, ScanSource Catalyst in North America, and ScanSource Services Group. During fiscal year 2014, net sales for this segment decreased $8.3 million or 0.8% compared to the prior fiscal year. On a constant currency basis, net sales for fiscal 2014 decreased $11.1 million or 1.1%. compared to prior year. Sales growth in the North America Communications business unit was offset by weaker sales results for the Catalyst and Europe Communications business units.

Worldwide Barcode & Security
Gross profit dollars for the Barcode & Security distribution segment remained relatively flat for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 as compared to prior year. As a percentage of sales, gross profit margin decreased slightly to 9.0% for fiscal year 2014 as compared to 9.2% for fiscal year 2013. This reduction is largely the result sales mix, principally higher sales volume of lower margin products.

Gross profit dollars and gross profit margin for the Communications & Services distribution segment increased for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. As a percentage of sales, gross profit margin increased to 12.8% for fiscal year 2014 compared to 11.9% for fiscal year 2013, primarily due to higher service fee income and improved vendor program attainment.
Operating Expenses
The following table summarizes the Company’s operating expenses for the periods ended June 30:

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $1.3 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily due to increased personnel headcount and higher healthcare costs, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.
In the fourth quarter of 2014, we recorded a $15.5 million legal recovery, net of attorney fees, related to our previously disclosed ERP litigation. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we recorded impairment charges from our ERP project and goodwill in our ScanSource Communications Europe and ScanSource Brasil sales units as mentioned above. Discussion on these impairments can be found in the overview section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis, as well as, Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
We have elected to present changes in fair value of the contingent consideration owed to former shareholders of CDC separately from other selling, general and administrative expenses. In 2014, we recorded a $2.3 million loss, driven by recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and a decline in the discount rate used, partially offset by a reduction in forecasted results.

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
For the Barcode & Security distribution segment, operating income increased $16.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The increase is largely the result of a $15.1 million impairment expense related to ScanSource Brasil, included in prior year results, as well as, a decrease in the provision for doubtful accounts.
Worldwide Communications & Services
For the Communications & Services distribution segment, operating income increased $10.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The increase is primarily attributable to increased gross profit margin and $5.4 million of goodwill impairment charges related to Europe Communications included in prior year results.
Corporate
For the year ended June 30, 2014, Corporate received a legal recovery, net of attorney fees, of $15.5 million, related to our previously disclosed ERP litigation for the year ended June 30, 2014. We incurred a $28.2 million ERP impairment charge for the year ended June 30, 2013.

*nm - percentages are not meaningful
Interest expense reflects interest incurred on the Company’s long-term debt, non-utilization fees from the Company’s revolving credit facility and the amortization of debt issuance costs.
Interest income for the year ended June 30, 2014 was generated on interest-bearing customer receivables and interest earned on cash and cash equivalents.
Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses. Foreign exchange gains and losses are generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the British pound versus the euro, the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar and other currencies versus U.S. dollar. While we utilize foreign exchange contracts and debt in non-functional currencies to hedge foreign currency exposure, our foreign exchange policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative transactions.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $41.3 million and $18.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, reflecting an effective tax rate of 33.6% and 34.6%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the non-recurring impairment of goodwill in the United Kingdom for our European Communications reporting unit, which was not deductible for fiscal year 2013.
Goodwill Impairment Charge
33

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
We completed our annual impairment test as of June 30, 2013 and determined that the book value of the European Communications and the Brazilian POS & Barcode sales units were in excess of fair value and a goodwill impairment was required. Prior to this test, no interim indicators of impairment were identified. Reduced earnings and cash flow forecast primarily due to the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations of future results contributed to our determination. Furthermore, earnout payments made to CDC shareholders have been lower than those forecasted and assumed in the calculation of goodwill, at the time of acquisition. Accordingly, we recorded a non-cash pretax goodwill impairment charge of $20.6 million, or $15.2 million after tax at the local tax rate, relating to our reporting units. These goodwill charges are included in a separate operating expense line item, "Impairment charges including ERP & goodwill" in our Consolidated Income Statements. Income and market approaches were used to determine the fair value of each of our seven reporting units. The application of goodwill impairment tests requires management's judgment for many of the inputs. Key assumptions in the impairment test included our forecasted revenue growth rate, discount rate assumptions, and working capital requirements. Changes in these estimates could result in additional impairment of goodwill in a future period. The impairment charge reflects our view of anticipated risks based on our expectations of market and general economic conditions. For additional information regarding goodwill, see Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory reserves to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market, and vendor incentives. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable and that the actual results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 - Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized once four criteria are met: (1) the Company must have persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery must occur (this includes the transfer of both title and risk of loss, provided that no significant obligations remain); (3) the price must be fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability must be reasonably assured. The Company allows its customers to return product for exchange or credit subject to certain limitations.
The Company distributes third-party service contracts, typically for product maintenance and support. These service contracts are sold separately from the products, and the Company often serves as the agent for the contract on behalf of the original equipment manufacturer. Since the Company acts as an agent on behalf of most of these service contracts sold, revenue is recognized net of cost at the time of sale. However, the Company distributes some self-branded warranty programs and engages a third party (generally the original equipment manufacturer) to cover the fulfillment of any obligations arising from these contracts. These revenues and associated third-party costs are amortized over the life of the contract and presented in net sales and cost of goods sold, respectively.
Service revenue associated with third-party service contracts and warranty programs, as mentioned above, along with configuration and marketing services is recognized when the work is complete, and the four criteria discussed above have been substantially met. Service revenue associated with service contracts, warranty programs, configuration, marketing and other services approximates 3.0% of consolidated net sales for fiscal year 2015 and 2% of consolidated net sales for fiscal years 2014 and 2013.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not engaged in any sales transactions involving multiple element arrangements. Had any arrangements with multiple deliverables occurred, we would follow the guidance set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605 - Revenue Recognition.
Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable
The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers’ failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. Management determines the estimate of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable, and (3) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate and reduce the ability of the Company’s customers to make payments on their accounts, the Company may be required to increase its allowance by recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of the Company’s customers improve and result in payments or settlements of previously reserved amounts, the Company may be required to record a reduction in bad debt expense to reverse the recorded allowance.
Inventory Reserves
Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market based principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods and length of time on hand, and other factors. An estimate is made of the market value, less cost to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If these products are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves may be required. The estimates used to calculate these reserves are applied consistently. The adjustments are recorded in the period in which the loss of utility of the inventory occurs, which establishes a new cost basis for the inventory. This new cost basis is maintained until such time that the reserved inventory is disposed of,
35

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
returned to the vendor or sold. To the extent that specifically reserved inventory is sold, cost of goods sold is expensed for the new cost basis of the inventory sold.
Vendor Programs
The Company receives incentives from vendors related to volume rebates, cooperative advertising allowances and other incentive agreements. These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the vendors. Some of these incentives are negotiated on an ad hoc basis to support specific programs mutually developed between the Company and the vendor. Vendors generally require that we use their cooperative advertising allowances exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs. Incentives received from vendors for specifically identified incremental cooperative advertising programs are recorded as adjustments to selling, general and administrative expenses. FASB's ASC 605 – Revenue Recognition, addresses accounting by a customer (including a reseller) for certain consideration received from a vendor. This guidance requires that the portion of these vendor funds in excess of our costs be reflected as a reduction of inventory. Such funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold.
The Company records unrestricted volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and as a reduction of the cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. Amounts received or receivables from vendors that are not yet earned are deferred in the consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company may receive early payment discounts from certain vendors. The Company records early payment discounts received as a reduction of inventory and recognizes the discount as a reduction of cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. ASC 605 requires management to make certain estimates of the amounts of vendor incentives that will be received. Actual recognition of the vendor consideration may vary from management estimates based on actual results.
Share-Based Payments
The Company accounts for share-based compensation using the provisions of ASC 718, Accounting for Stock Compensation, which requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation. Share-based compensation is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. Since this compensation cost is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company has elected to expense grants of awards with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect tax consequences on future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. During fiscal 2013, the Company reviewed and modified its policy toward permanently reinvested foreign earnings. The Company has provided for U.S. income taxes for the current earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. Earnings from all other geographies will continue to be considered retained indefinitely for reinvestment. The tax effect of this accounting policy change is immaterial to the financial statements. See Note 12 - Income Taxes, for further discussion.
Additionally, the Company maintains reserves for uncertain tax provisions in accordance with ASC 740. See Note 12 - Income Taxes, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements for recognizing the total consideration transferred to and the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired target in a business combination. ASC 805 also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring goodwill acquired in a business combination and requires the acquirer to disclose information that users may need to evaluate and understand the financial impact of the business combination. See Note 5 - Acquisitions, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Goodwill
The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed at a reporting unit level at least annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. Our goodwill reporting units align directly with our Worldwide Barcode & Security and Worldwide Communications & Services operating segments for a total of two reporting units. The goodwill testing utilizes a two-step impairment analysis, whereby the Company compares the carrying value of each identified reporting unit to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using the net present value of discounted cash flows generated by each reporting
36

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
unit. Considerable judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows, discount rates and other factors affecting the estimated fair value of the reporting units, including the operating and macroeconomic factors. Historical financial information, internal plans and projections, and industry information are used in making such estimates.
In the two-step impairment analysis, goodwill is first tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with the reporting unit's carrying amount to identify any potential impairment. If fair value is determined to be less than carrying value, a second step is used whereby the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill, determined through a hypothetical purchase price allocation, is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting units' goodwill. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is less than its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded in current earnings for the difference. We also assess the recoverability of goodwill if facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may be impaired. In our most recent annual test, we estimated the fair value of our reporting units primarily based on the discounted cash flow method. We also utilized fair value estimates derived from the market approach utilizing the public company market multiple method to validate the results of the discounted cash flow method, which required us to make assumptions about the applicability of those multiples to our reporting units. The discounted cash flow method required us to estimate future cash flows and discount those amounts to a present value.
The assumptions utilized in determining fair value included:

• | Industry weighted-average cost of capital ("WACC"): We utilized a WACC relative to each reporting unit's respective geography and industry as the discount rate for estimated future cash flows. The WACC is intended to represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market place participant in each respective geography.

• | Operating income: We utilized historical and expected revenue growth rates, gross margins and operating expense percentages, which varied based on the projections of each reporting unit being evaluated.

• | Cash flows from working capital changes: We utilized a projected cash flow impact pertaining to expected changes in working capital as each of our goodwill reporting units grow.

While we believe our assumptions are appropriate, they are subject to uncertainty and by nature include judgments and estimates regarding future events, including projected growth rates, margin percentages and operating efficiencies. During fiscal year 2015, the Company completed its annual impairment test as of April 30 and determined that no goodwill impairment charge was necessary. In accordance with ASC 350, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on both the historical reporting units based on geography and the new reporting units based on operating segments for fiscal year 2015. Under the historical reporting units, the estimated fair value of the Company's Latin American goodwill reporting unit exceeded its carrying values by a smaller margin than the Company's other goodwill reporting units, excluding reporting units acquired during fiscal year 2015. The estimated fair value of the Latin America goodwill reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 26.5% and 10.2% for fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in sensitivity to this goodwill reporting unit is driven largely by the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations for future results in the units. Key assumptions used in determining fair value include projected growth and operating margin, working capital requirements and discount rates.
During fiscal 2013, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $5.4 million and $15.1 million for our European Communications and ScanSource Brasil reporting units. The carrying value of the European POS & Barcode and ScanSource Latin America goodwill as of June 30, 2013 was $4.5 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The increase in sensitivity to these goodwill reporting units are driven largely by the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations for future results in the units. Key assumptions used in determining fair value include projected growth and operating margin, working capital requirements and discount rates.
See Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on our goodwill impairment testing and results.
Liability for Contingent Consideration
In addition to the initial cash consideration paid to former shareholders of CDC, Imago, and Network1, the Company is obligated to make additional earnout payments based on future results through a specified date based on a multiple of the subsidiary’s pro forma earnings as defined in the respective share purchase agreements. Future payments are to be paid in the functional currency of the acquired entity, which is the Brazilian real for CDC and Network and the British pound for Imago. CDC has one remaining earnout payment to be paid during fiscal year 2016, Imago has two remaining earnout payments to be paid in annual installments during fiscal years 2016 and 2017, and Network1 has four remaining earnout payments to be paid in annual installments during fiscal years 2016 through 2019. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, the Company determines the fair value of this liability for contingent consideration at each reporting date throughout the term of the earnout using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Each period the Company will reflect the contingent consideration liability at fair value with changes recorded

in the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item on the Consolidated Income Statement. Current and noncurrent portions of the liability are presented in the current portion of contingent consideration and long-term portion of contingent consideration line items on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future affect or change on the company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowings under the $300 million revolving credit facility. As a distribution company, our business requires significant investment in working capital, particularly accounts receivable and inventory, partially financed through our accounts payable to vendors, cash on hand and revolving lines of credit. In general, as our sales volumes increase, our net investment in working capital typically increases, which typically results in decreased cash flow from operating activities. Conversely, when sales volumes decrease, our net investment in working capital typically decreases, which typically results in increased cash flow from operating activities.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $121.6 million at June 30, 2015, compared to $194.9 million at June 30, 2014, of which $43.4 million and $39.7 million was held outside of the United States as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Checks released but not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $62.9 million and $84.1 million are classified as accounts payable as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively.
We conduct business in many locations throughout the world where we generate and use cash. The Company provides for U.S. income taxes for the earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. Earnings from all other geographies will continue to be considered retained indefinitely for reinvestment. If these funds were needed in the operations of the United States, we would be required to record and pay significant income taxes upon repatriation of these funds. See Note 12 - Income Taxes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Our net investment in working capital decreased $49.9 million to $666.0 million at June 30, 2015 from $715.9 million at June 30, 2014, principally from lower cash and higher accounts payable, partially offset by higher accounts receivable and inventory balances. Our net investment in working capital is affected by several factors such as fluctuations in sales volume, net income, timing of collections from customers, increases and decreases to inventory levels, payments to vendors, as well as cash generated or used by other financing and investing activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $75.5 million for year ended June 30, 2015, compared to $47.7 million in the prior year. Operating cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2015 is primarily attributable to net income and increases in accounts payable, partially offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventory.
The number of days sales outstanding ("DSO") was 55 at June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, which is within our typically expected range.

Inventory turnover increased to 5.9 times during the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year, compared to 5.6 times in the prior year quarter. Throughout fiscal year 2015 inventory turnover ranged from 5.4 to 5.9 times.
Cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2015 was $80.5 million, compared to $11.2 million used in the prior year. The increase in cash used in investing activities is due to the acquisition of the Imago ScanSource and Network1 businesses and capital expenditures on the Company's new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system.
In December 2013, the Company retained SAP for software platform and implementation consulting services for a new ERP system. The Company's European operations, excluding Imago ScanSource, began utilizing the new ERP system in February 2015, which is in the third quarter of the current fiscal year. The Company's North America operations began utilizing the new ERP system in July 2015, which is in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016.
Cash used in financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2015 totaled to $56.9 million, compared to $9.3 million cash provided by financing activities in the prior year. The change in cash flow is primarily attributable to repayments on borrowings of Network1 and Imago ScanSource, repurchases of common stock, and a contingent consideration payment to former shareholders of CDC.
The Company assumed net debt from Network1 of $35.2 million as part of the initial purchase consideration as of January 13, 2015. The remaining outstanding borrowings of Network1 as of June 30, 2015 totaled $3.4 million, of which $2.9 million is classified as current.
In August 2014, our Board of Directors authorized a three-year $120 million share repurchase program. The Company repurchased 0.5 million shares totaling approximately $18.8 million during the year ended June 30, 2015. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, through the date of this report, the Company has repurchased an additional 0.6 million shares arriving at a total of approximately $41.1 million paid for repurchases since the program began.
The Company has a $300 million multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature on October 11, 2016. On November 6, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment of this credit facility ("Amended Credit Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of banks to extend its maturity to November 6, 2018. The Amended Credit Agreement allows for the issuance of up to $50 million for letters of credit and has a $150 million accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the availability to $450 million, subject to obtaining additional credit commitments for the lenders participating in the increase.
At our option, loans denominated in U.S. dollars under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's ratio of total debt (excluding accounts payable and accrued liabilities) to EBITDA, measured as of the end of the most recent year or quarter, as applicable, for which financial statements have been delivered to the Lenders (the "Leverage Ratio"). The Leverage Ratio calculation excludes the Company's subsidiary in Brazil. This spread ranges from 1.00% to 2.25% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 1.25% for alternate base rate loans. Additionally, the Company is assessed commitment fees ranging from 0.175% to 0.40% depending on the Leverage Ratio, on non-utilized borrowings availability, excluding swingline loans. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and a pledge of up to 65% of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined to be either material or a subsidiary borrower as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility as of June 30, 2015.
There were no outstanding borrowings on the Company's $300 million revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2015 and 2014.
On a gross basis, we borrowed $93.6 million and repaid $93.6 million on the $300.0 million revolving credit facility in fiscal 2015. In the prior year, we made zero borrowings and repayments. The average daily balance on the revolving credit facility was $1.6 million and $0.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. There were no standby letters of credits issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2015, leaving $300 million available for borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Imago ScanSource, a new subsidiary of the Company, has multi-currency invoice discounting credit facilities secured by the subsidiary’s accounts receivable for its operations based in the United Kingdom and France. The invoice discounting facilities allow for the issuance of funds up to 85% of the amount of each invoice processed, subject to limits by currency of £4.1 million, €4.1 million, and $0.7 million. Borrowings under the invoice discounting facilities bear interest at a base rate determined by currency, plus a spread of 1.85%. The base rate is the United Kingdom base rate published by the Bank of England for GBP-based borrowings, 30-day EUROLIBOR for Euro-based borrowings, and the Lloyds Bank daily USD published rate for the USD-

based borrowings. Additionally, the Company is assessed an annual commitment fee of less than £0.1 million. There were no outstanding balances at June 30, 2015.
On April 15, 2011, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ScanSource do Brasil Participações LTDA completed its acquisition of all of the shares of CDC, pursuant to a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement dated April 7, 2011. The purchase price was paid with an initial payment of $36.2 million, net of cash acquired, assumption of working capital payables and debt, and variable annual payments through October 2015 based on CDC's annual financial results. The Company has made four payments to the former shareholders totaling $16.0 million. As of June 30, 2015, we have $5.1 million recorded for the earnout obligation, all of which is classified as current and due October 15, 2015. The last remaining earnout payments will be funded by cash on hand and our existing revolving credit facility.
On September 19, 2014, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, completed its acquisition of 100% of the shares of Imago ScanSource, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement. The purchase price was structured with an initial payment of $37.4 million, plus two additional annual cash installments for the twelve months ending September 30, 2015 and 2016, based on the financial performance of Imago ScanSource. The Company acquired $1.9 million of cash during the acquisition, resulting in net $35.5 million cash paid for Imago ScanSource. As of June 30, 2015, we have $5.4 million recorded for the earnout obligation, of which $2.6 million is classified as current. The first earnout payment is due October 29, 2015. Future earnout payments will be funded by cash on hand and our existing revolving credit facility.
On January 13, 2015, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired 100% of the shares of Intersmart Comércio Importação Exportação de Equipamentos Eletrônicos, S.A., a corporation organized under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, and its related entities (collectively “Network1”), pursuant to the Share Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Company structured the purchase transaction with an initial cash payment of approximately $29.1 million, plus additional annual cash installments based on EBITDA over the next four years, commencing with the period ending June 30, 2015. The Company acquired $4.8 million of cash during the acquisition, resulting in $24.3 million net cash paid for Network1and assumed net debt of $35.2 million as part of the initial consideration. As of June 30, 2015, we have $23.5 million recorded for the earnout obligation, of which $1.7 million is classified as current. The first earnout payment is due August 31, 2015. Future earnout payments will be funded by cash on hand and our existing revolving credit facility.
On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the State of Mississippi in order to provide financing for the acquisition and installation of certain equipment to be utilized at the Company’s Southaven, Mississippi distribution facility, through the issuance of an industrial development revenue bond. The bond matures on September 1, 2032 and accrues interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread of 0.85%. The terms of the bond allow for payment of interest only for the first 10 years of the agreement, and then, starting on September 1, 2018 through 2032, principal and interest payments are due until the maturity date or the redemption of the bond. The agreement also provides the bondholder with a put option, exercisable only within 180 days of each fifth anniversary of the agreement, requiring the Company to pay back the bonds at 100% of the principal amount outstanding. The outstanding balance on this facility was $5.4 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the effective interest rate was 1.03% and 1.00%, respectively. The Company was in compliance with all covenants associated with this agreement as of June 30, 2015.
The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity, including cash resources and cash provided by operating activities, supplemented as necessary with funds under the Company’s credit agreements, will provide sufficient resources to meet the Company’s present and future working capital and cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Commitments
At June 30, 2015, the Company had contractual obligations in the form of non-cancelable operating leases, a capital lease (including interest payments), debt (including interest payments) and the contingent consideration for the earnouts pertaining to the Network1, Imago ScanSource, and CDC acquisitions. See Notes 7, 9 and 13 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table summarizes our future contractual obligations:

Such amounts were not material in the current fiscal year.

(2) | Amounts disclosed regarding future CDC, Imago ScanSource, and Network1 earnout payments are presented at their discounted fair value. Estimated future, undiscounted earnout payments could range as high as $5.3 million, $6.1 million, and $32.7 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2015.

(3) | Amounts totaling $16.0 million of deferred compensation which are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2015 have been excluded from the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing of the payment of these obligations, which are generally at the discretion of the individual employees or upon death of the former employee, respectively.

ITEM 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The Company’s principal exposure to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of its business is a result of its selective use of bank debt and transacting business in foreign currencies in connection with its foreign operations.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its borrowing activities, which include revolving credit facilities with a group of banks used to maintain liquidity and fund the Company’s business operations. The nature and amount of the Company’s debt may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility, variable rate long-term debt and subsidiary line of credit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 would have resulted in less than a $0.1 million increase or decrease, respectively, in pre-tax income for the period.
The Company evaluates its interest rate risk and may use interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of interest rate fluctuations associated with the Company's variable rate long-term debt. At June 30, 2015, the Company had cross currency swaps related to fixed rate debt acquired from Network1. These swaps involve the exchange of principal and fixed interest receipts of U.S. dollar-denominated debt held by Network1 for principal and variable interest payments equal to the Average One-Day Interbank Deposit Rate ("CDI" rate), plus an applicable spread, in Brazilian reais. The Company's use of derivative instruments have the potential to expose the Company to certain market risks including the possibility of (1) the Company’s hedging activities not being as effective as anticipated in reducing the volatility of the Company’s cash flows, (2) the counterparty not performing its obligations under the applicable hedging arrangement, (3) the hedging arrangement being imperfect or ineffective, or (4) the terms of the swap or associated debt may change. The Company seeks to lessen such risks by having established a policy to identify, control, and manage market risks which may arise from changes in interest rates, as well as limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from its foreign operations in Canada, Latin America, Brazil and Europe. These risks include transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries. In the normal course of the business, foreign exchange risk is managed by the use of foreign currency forward contracts to hedge these exposures as well as balance sheet netting of exposures. In addition, exchange rate fluctuations may cause our international results to fluctuate significantly when translated into U.S. dollars. These risks may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material impact on the Company’s financial results in the future.
The Company’s senior management has approved a foreign exchange hedging policy to reduce foreign currency exposure. The Company’s policy is to utilize financial instruments to reduce risks where internal netting cannot be effectively employed and not to enter into foreign currency derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against its functional currencies and enters into foreign exchange derivative contracts to minimize short-term currency risks on cash flows. These positions are based upon balance sheet exposures and, in certain foreign currencies, our forecasted purchases and sales. The Company continually evaluates foreign exchange risk and may enter into foreign exchange transactions in accordance with its policy. Actual variances from these forecasted transactions can adversely impact foreign exchange results. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in other expense (income).
The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments, and therefore, the instruments are marked-to-market with changes in their values recorded in the consolidated income statement each period. The Company's foreign currencies are primarily Brazilian reais, euros, British pounds, Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos, Colombian pesos and Chilean pesos. At June 30, 2015, the fair value of the Company’s currency forward contracts outstanding was a net payable of less than $0.1 million. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

Board of Directors and Shareholders
ScanSource, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ScanSource Inc. (a South Carolina corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2015. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ScanSource, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated August 27, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion.

ScanSource, Inc.
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of ScanSource, Inc. (a South Carolina corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“Management’s Report”). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. Our audit of, and opinion on, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not include the internal control over financial reporting of Imago Group plc (“Imago”) and Intersmart Comerico Importaxao Exportaco de Equipamentos Electronicos, S.A. (“Network1”), two wholly-owned subsidiaries, whose financial statements reflect total combined assets and revenues constituting 15 percent and 6 percent, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2015. As indicated in Management’s Report, Imago and Network1 were acquired during the year ended June 30, 2015. Management’s assertion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting excluded internal control over financial reporting of Imago and Network1.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and our report dated August 27, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

(1) | Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description
ScanSource, Inc. is a leading international wholesale distributor of specialty technology products. ScanSource, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("the Company") provide value-added distribution services for technology manufacturers and sell to resellers in the following specialty technology markets: POS and barcode, security and 3D printing through its Worldwide Barcode & Security segment and video, voice and network solutions through its Worldwide Communications & Services segment.
The Company operates in the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Europe. The Company distributes to the United States and Canada from its Southaven, Mississippi distribution center; to Latin America principally from distribution centers located in Miami, Florida, Mexico, Brazil and Colombia; and to Europe from distribution centers in Belgium, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom.
Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, contingent consideration, and inventory reserves. Management bases its estimates on assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable and that the actual results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts.
The following significant accounting policies relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements:
(a) Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable
The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers’ failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company.
Management determines the estimate of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable, (3) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers, and (4) the current economic and country specific environment. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate and reduce the ability of the Company’s customers to make payments on their accounts, the Company may be required to increase its allowance by recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of the Company’s customers improve and result in payments or settlements of previously reserved amounts, the Company may be required to record a reduction in bad debt expense to reverse the recorded allowance.
(b) Inventory Reserves
Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market based principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods and length of time on hand, and other factors. An estimate is made of the market value, less cost to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If these products are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves may be required. The estimates used to calculate these reserves are
53

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
June 30, 2015
applied consistently. The adjustments are recorded in the period in which the loss of utility of the inventory occurs, which establishes a new cost basis for the inventory. This new cost basis is maintained until such time that the reserved inventory is disposed of, returned to the vendor or sold. To the extent that specifically reserved inventory is sold, cost of goods sold is expensed for the new cost basis of the inventory sold.
Reorganization and Segment changes
Prior to fiscal year 2013 the Company's reporting units coincided with its geographic business segments of North America and International. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company reorganized its management structure and reporting segments to globally leverage the Company's leadership in specific technology markets. As part of this new structure, the Company created two technology business operating segments: Worldwide Barcode & Security ("Barcode/Security") and Worldwide Communications & Services ("Communications/Services"). Each operating segment is managed around its global technology focus and is supported by the Company's centralized infrastructure, including distribution centers and back office operations. Each operating segment has its own management team led by a president and includes regional presidents within the operating group who manage the various functions within each segment. Decisions and planning for the Company as a whole are made at the corporate level by analyzing results from the operating segments. These technology business segments replace the geographic segments previously used, and the Company has retrospectively reclassified the consolidated financial statements to conform to the new presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains some zero-balance, disbursement accounts at various financial institutions in which the Company does not maintain significant depository relationships. Due to the nature of the Company’s banking relationships with these institutions, the Company does not have the right to offset most if not all outstanding checks written from these accounts against cash on hand, and the respective institutions are not legally obligated to honor the checks until sufficient funds are transferred to fund the checks. Checks released but not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $62.9 million and $84.1 million are classified as accounts payable as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively.
The Company maintains its cash with various financial institutions globally that are monitored regularly for credit quality and holds amounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") limits or other insured limits. Cash and cash equivalents held outside of the United States totaled $43.4 million and $37.9 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company sells its products to a large base of value-added resellers throughout the United States, Canada, Latin America and Europe. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. In certain cases, the Company will accept tangible assets as collateral to increase the trade credit of its customers. In addition, the Company carries credit insurance on certain subsections of the customer portfolio. No single customer accounted for more than 5% of the Company’s net sales for the fiscal year 2015 and 2014, respectively, and no single customer accounted for more than 6% of the Company's net sales for the fiscal year 2013.
The Company has established arrangements with certain customers for longer-term financing. The Company accounts for these arrangements by recording them at their historical cost less specific allowances at balance sheet dates. Interest income is recognized in the period earned and is recorded as interest income in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments to manage certain exposures related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates in connection with borrowing activities. We record all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company’s foreign currency exposure results from purchasing and selling internationally in several foreign currencies and from intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries. In addition, the Company may have foreign currency risk related to debt that
54

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
June 30, 2015
is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company's foreign currencies are denominated primarily by Brazilian reais, euros, British pounds, Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos, Colombian pesos and Chilean pesos.
The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments. The market risk related to the foreign exchange agreements is offset by changes in the valuation of the underlying items. These contracts are generally for a duration of 90 days or less. The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments. They are, therefore, marked-to-market with changes in their fair value recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement each period. Derivative financial instruments related to foreign currency exposure are accounted for on an accrual basis with gains or losses on these contracts recorded in income in the period in which their value changes, with the offsetting entry for unsettled positions reflected in either other assets or other liabilities.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, through the acquisition of Network1, the Company assumed borrowings denominated in foreign currencies that have primarily been hedged into the functional currency of the respective borrowing entity using cross-currency swaps in order to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exposures and interest rate exposures on these borrowings. These swaps involve the exchange of principal and fixed interest receipts of U.S. dollar-denominated debt held by one of our Brazilian subsidiaries (Network1) for principal and variable interest payments in Brazilian reais. The impact of the changes in foreign exchange rates of the cross-currency debt instruments are recognized as adjustments to other income and expense in the Consolidated Income Statements. Interest rate differentials paid or received under the swap agreements are recognized as adjustments to interest expense in the Consolidated Income Statements.
Investments
The Company has investments that are held in a grantor trust formed by the Company related to the ScanSource, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan and Founder’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"). The Company has classified these investments as trading securities, and they are recorded at fair market value with unrealized gains and losses included in the accompanying Consolidated Income Statements. The Company’s obligations under this deferred compensation plan change in concert with the performance of the investments along with contributions to and withdrawals from the plan. The fair value of these investments and the corresponding deferred compensation obligation was $16.0 million and $14.0 million as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively. These investments are classified as either prepaid expenses and current assets or other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets depending on the timing of planned disbursements. The deferred compensation obligation is classified either within accrued expenses and other current liabilities or other long-term liabilities as well. The amounts of these investments classified as current assets with corresponding current liabilities were $0.7 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories (consisting entirely of finished goods) are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Vendor Programs
The Company receives incentives from vendors related to cooperative advertising allowances, volume rebates and other incentive agreements. These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the vendors. Some of these incentives are negotiated on an ad hoc basis to support specific programs mutually developed between the Company and the vendor. Vendors generally require that we use their cooperative advertising allowances exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs. Incentives received from vendors for specifically identified incremental cooperative advertising programs are recorded as adjustments to selling, general and administrative expenses. FASB's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605 – Revenue Recognition, addresses accounting by a customer (including a reseller) for certain consideration received from a vendor. This guidance requires that the portion of these vendor funds in excess of our costs be reflected as a reduction of inventory. Such funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold.
The Company records unrestricted volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and as a reduction of the cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. Amounts received or receivables from vendors that are not yet earned are deferred in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company may receive early payment discounts from certain vendors. The Company records early payment discounts received as a reduction of inventory and recognizes the discount as a reduction of cost of goods
55

June 30, 2015
sold when the related inventory is sold. ASC 605 requires management to make certain estimates of the amounts of vendor incentives that will be received. Actual recognition of the vendor consideration may vary from management estimates based on actual results.
Vendor Concentration
The Company sells products from many vendors, however, sales of products supplied by Zebra and Avaya each constituted more than 10% of the Company’s net sales for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2013. Sales of products supplied by Zebra, Avaya, and Honeywell constituted more than 10% of the Company's net sales for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Product Warranty
The Company’s vendors generally provide a warranty on the products distributed by the Company and allow the Company to return defective products, including those that have been returned to the Company by its customers. In three of our product lines, the Company offers a self-branded warranty program, in which management has determined that the Company is the primary obligor of these programs. The Company purchases contracts from unrelated third parties, generally the original equipment manufacturers, to fulfill any obligation to service or replace defective product claimed on these warranty programs. As such, the Company has not recorded a provision for estimated service warranty costs. For all other product lines, the Company does not independently provide a warranty on the products it distributes; however, to maintain customer relations, the Company facilitates returns of defective products from the Company’s customers by accepting for exchange, with the Company’s prior approval, most defective products within 30 days of invoicing.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years for furniture, equipment and computer software, 40 years for buildings and 15 years for building improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.
To the extent that the Company has longstanding, "in-process" projects that have not been implemented for their intended operational use, the Company capitalizes the portion of interest expense incurred during the asset's acquisition period that theoretically could have been avoided in accordance with ASC 835. The amount capitalized is determined by applying the appropriate capitalization rate to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the reporting period. The capitalization rate used is based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the reporting period.
Capitalized Software
The Company accounts for capitalized software in accordance with ASC 350-40, which provides guidance for computer software developed or obtained for internal use. The Company is required to continually evaluate the stage of the implementation process to determine whether or not costs are expensed or capitalized. Costs incurred during the preliminary project phase or planning and research phase are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred during the development phase, such as material and direct services costs, compensation costs of employees associated with the development, and interest cost, are capitalized as incurred. Costs incurred during the post-implementation or operation phase, such as training and maintenance costs, are expensed as incurred. In addition, costs incurred to modify existing software that result in additional functionality are capitalized as incurred.
Goodwill
The Company accounts for recorded goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires that goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. Goodwill testing utilizes a two-step impairment analysis, whereby the Company compares the carrying value of each identified reporting unit to its fair value. The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed at a reporting unit level at least annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. Historically, our goodwill reporting units were primarily based on geography, one level below our Barcode & Security segment and Communications & Services segment. During fiscal year 2015, we reorganized our reporting units to align directly with our operating segments, in an effort to aggregate business components impacting goodwill into a structure that is more representative of how the business is managed. The Company evaluated all qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the
56

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
June 30, 2015
separate business components, concluding that recognizing reporting units at the segment level was most appropriate. This change did not accelerate, delay or avoid a potential impairment charge. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using the net present value of discounted cash flows generated by each reporting unit. Considerable judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows, discount rates and other factors affecting the estimated fair value of the reporting units, including the operating and macroeconomic factors. Historical financial information, internal plans and projections, and industry information are used in making such estimates.
In the two-step impairment analysis, goodwill is first tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with the reporting unit's carrying amount to identify any potential impairment. If fair value is determined to be less than carrying value, a second step is used whereby the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill, determined through a hypothetical purchase price allocation, is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting units' goodwill. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is less than its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded in current earnings for the difference. We also assess the recoverability of goodwill if facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may be impaired. In our most recent annual test, we estimated the fair value of our reporting units primarily based on the income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. We also utilized fair value estimates derived from the market approach utilizing the public company market multiple method to validate the results of the discounted cash flow method, which required us to make assumptions about the applicability of those multiples to our reporting units. The discounted cash flow method required us to estimate future cash flows and discount those amounts to present value. The key assumptions utilized in determining fair value included:

• | Industry weighted-average cost of capital ("WACC"): We utilized a WACC relative to each reporting unit's respective geography and industry as the discount rate for estimated future cash flows. The WACC is intended to represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market place participant in each respective geography.

• | Operating income: We utilized historical and expected revenue growth rates, gross margins and operating expense percentages, which varied based on the projections of each reporting unit being evaluated.

• | Cash flows from working capital changes: We utilized a projected cash flow impact pertaining to expected changes in working capital as each of our goodwill reporting units grow.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company changed its annual goodwill impairment testing date from June 30 to April 30. This voluntary change is considered preferable as it better aligns the timing of the impairment test with management’s financial planning and budgeting process, and ensures the completion of the test prior to the end of the annual reporting period. This change did not accelerate, delay or avoid a potential impairment charge.
See Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets to the consolidated financial statements for more information regarding goodwill and the results of our testing.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade names, distributor agreements and non-compete agreements. Customer relationships and distributor agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 15 years. Trade names are amortized over a period ranging from 1 to 5 years. Non-compete agreements are amortized over their contract life.
Debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the credit facility.
These assets are included in other assets and are shown in detail in Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Tests for recoverability of a long-lived asset to be held and used are measured by comparing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset to the sum of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. In estimating the future undiscounted cash flows we use projections of cash flows directly associated with, and which are expected to arise as a direct result of, the use and eventual disposition of the assets. If it is determined that a long-lived asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss would be calculated equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset over its fair value.

June 30, 2015
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company decided not to proceed with the development of the Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") project using the Microsoft Dynamics AX software and wrote off substantially all of the total $28.8 million in capitalized expenses related to the original project. The non-cash charge recorded of $28.2 million before the effect of income taxes ($18.0 million net of the income tax impact) included software development costs, hardware, software interfaces and other related costs. Prior to the write-off, the capitalized software was included in property and equipment at cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The remaining balance of approximately $0.6 million was placed into service in July 2014. The Company did not record any material impairment charges for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying values of financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, borrowings under the revolving credit facility and subsidiary lines of credit approximate fair value based upon either short maturities or variable interest rates of these instruments. For additional information related to the fair value of derivatives, please see Note 9 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
Liability for Contingent Consideration
In addition to the initial cash consideration paid to former shareholders of CDC, Imago, and Network1, the Company is obligated to make additional earnout payments based on future results through a specified date based on a multiple of the subsidiary’s pro forma earnings measure as defined in the respective share purchase agreements. Future payments are to be paid in the subsidiaries' local currency. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, the Company determined the fair value of this liability for contingent consideration on the respective acquisition date using a form of a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model following the income approach. Each period, the Company reflects the contingent consideration liability at fair value with changes recorded in the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item in the Consolidated Income Statements.
Contingencies
The Company accrues for contingent obligations, including estimated legal costs, when it is probable that a liability is incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. As facts concerning contingencies become known, management reassesses its position and makes appropriate adjustments to the financial statements. Estimates that are particularly sensitive to future changes include tax, legal, and other regulatory matters, which are subject to change as events evolve, and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation process.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized once four criteria are met: (1) the Company must have persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery must occur (this includes the transfer of both title and risk of loss, provided that no significant obligations remain); (3) the price must be fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability must be reasonably assured. The Company allows its customers to return product for exchange or credit subject to certain limitations.
The Company distributes third-party service contracts, typically for product maintenance and support. These service contracts are sold separately from the products, and the Company often serves as the agent for the contract on behalf of the original equipment manufacturer. Since the Company acts as an agent on behalf of most of these service contracts sold, revenue is recognized net of cost at the time of sale. However, the Company distributes some self-branded warranty programs and engages a third party (generally the original equipment manufacturer) to cover the fulfillment of any obligations arising from these contracts. These revenues and associated third-party costs are amortized over the life of the contract and presented in net sales and cost of goods sold, respectively.
Service revenue associated with third-party service contracts and warranty programs, as mentioned above, along with configuration and marketing services is recognized when the work is complete, and the four criteria discussed above have been substantially met. Service revenue associated with service contracts, warranty programs, configuration, marketing and other services approximates 3.0% of consolidated net sales for fiscal year 2015 and 2% of consolidated net sales for fiscal years 2014 and 2013.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not engaged in sales transactions involving multiple element arrangements.

Shipping Revenue and Costs
Shipping revenue is included in net sales, and related costs are included in cost of goods sold. Shipping revenue was $12.2 million for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and $12.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2013.
Advertising Costs
The Company defers advertising-related costs until the advertising is first run in trade or other publications, or in the case of brochures, until the brochures are printed and available for distribution. Advertising costs, included in marketing costs, after vendor reimbursement, were not significant in any of the three fiscal years ended June 30, 2015. Deferred advertising costs for any of the three fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 were also not significant.
Foreign Currency
The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Company’s foreign entities that operate in their local currency are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company's functional currencies include U.S. dollars, Brazilian reais, euros, British pounds,and Canadian dollars. The assets and liabilities of these foreign entities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the respective period. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates effective during the respective period. Foreign currency transactional and re-measurement gains and losses are included in other expense (income) in the Consolidated Income Statements. Such amounts are not significant to any of the periods presented.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect tax consequences on future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that an asset will not be realized in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. During 2013, the Company reviewed and modified its policy toward permanently reinvested foreign earnings. The Company has provided for U.S. income taxes for the current earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. Earnings from all other geographies will continue to be considered retained indefinitely for reinvestment. The tax effect of this accounting policy change in 2013 is immaterial to the financial statements. See Note 12 - Income Taxes for further discussion.
Additionally, the Company maintains reserves for uncertain tax provisions in accordance with ASC 740. See Note 12 - Income Taxes for more information.
Share-Based Payments
The Company accounts for share-based compensation using the provisions of ASC 718, Accounting for Stock Compensation, which requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation. Share-based compensation is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. Since this compensation cost is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company has elected to expense grants of awards with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.
Comprehensive Income
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, defines comprehensive income as the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The components of comprehensive income for the Company include net income and foreign currency translation adjustments arising from the consolidation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Currently, the Company is not engaged in any cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting.
Business Combinations

June 30, 2015
The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements for recognizing the total consideration transferred to and the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired target in a business combination. ASC 805 also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring goodwill acquired in a business combination and requires the acquirer to disclose information that users may need to evaluate and understand the financial impact of the business combination. See Note 5 - Acquisitions for further discussion.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts related to net identifiable intangible assets per the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets have been reclassified into a separate line on the statement, whereas, in prior year reports other current assets and net identifiable intangible assets were combined into a single presentation line. Such reclassifications have no impact on the total assets as previously reported.
In addition, certain amounts within deferred tax assets related to the temporary differences that give rise to net deferred tax assets presented in Note 12 - Income Taxes have been reclassified in the current year presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on the total net deferred tax assets previously reported in the following disclosure or the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard for contracts with customers that will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of this standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of 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. To achieve this core principle, the standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. This guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is prohibited. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. This guidance will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018, which is the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this new standard.
(2)Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common and potential common shares outstanding.

(5) Acquisitions
Network1
On January 13, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Network1 from the Network1 shareholders. Network1 is a Brazilian value-added distributor of communications equipment and services and joins the Company’s Worldwide Communications and Services operating segment. ScanSource is committed to becoming the leading value-added distributor of communications solutions for resellers in Latin America, and this acquisition represents an important step in this strategy.
Under the share purchase agreement entered into with Network1, the Company structured the purchase transaction with an initial cash payment of approximately $29.1 million, plus additional annual cash installments based on a form of adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") over the next four years, commencing with the period ending June 30, 2015. The Company acquired $4.8 million of cash during the acquisition, resulting in $24.3 million net cash paid for Network1. The Company assumed net debt of $35.2 million as part of the initial purchase consideration.
Pro forma results of operations and a complete purchase price allocation have not been presented for this acquisition because the results of this acquisition are not material to our consolidated results. The purchase price of this acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction date. As of the date of this report, initial purchase accounting for the business combination, which includes valuation of the pre-acquisition contingencies and related indemnification receivables and certain tangible assets, has not been finalized, therefore, purchase price allocation estimates presented are subject to change. Please see Note 9 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further information regarding the fair value accounting for this contingent consideration and Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies for further information regarding pre-acquisition contingencies and related indemnification receivables.

| Goodwill |  | Identifiable Intangible Assets
| (in thousands)
Network1 | $ | 22,536 |  |  | $ | 23,258 |

Intangible assets acquired include trade names, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements. The weighted-average amortization period for these identified intangible assets after purchase accounting adjustments, other than goodwill, was 9 years.
Imago
On September 19, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of Imago Group plc, a European value-added distributor of video and voice communications equipment and services, through a newly-formed special purchase entity. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company changed Imago's name to ScanSource Video Communications Ltd. (dba Imago ScanSource). Imago ScanSource joins the Company’s Worldwide Communications and Services operating segment. This acquisition supports the Company’s strategy to be the leading value-added distributor of video, voice, and networking solutions for resellers in Europe.
Under the share purchase agreement entered into with Imago, the Company structured the purchase transaction with an initial cash payment of $37.4 million, plus two additional annual cash installments for the twelve month periods ending September 30, 2015

and 2016, based on a form of adjusted EBITDA. The Company acquired $1.9 million of cash during the acquisition, resulting in net $35.5 million cash paid for Imago ScanSource. Please see Note 9 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further information regarding the fair value accounting for this contingent consideration.
Pro forma results of operations and a complete purchase price allocation have not been presented for this acquisition because the results of this acquisition are not material to our consolidated results. The purchase price of this acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction date, resulting in goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. The purchase price allocated to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets as of the acquisition date is as follows:

| Goodwill |  | Identifiable Intangible Assets
| (in thousands)
Imago ScanSource | $ | 18,266 |  |  | $ | 19,606 |

Intangible assets acquired include trade names, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements. The weighted-average amortization period for these identified intangible assets after purchase accounting adjustments, other than goodwill, was 9 years.
For tax purposes, due to the nondeductible nature of the amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability in the amount of $4.1 million. The deferred tax liability represents the difference between the book and tax bases in the assets and will decrease over time as the assets are amortized for book purposes.
CDC Brazil S.A.
On April 15, 2011, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of the shares of CDC, formerly known as CDC Brasil Distribuidora LTDA, Brazil’s leading distributor of AIDC and POS solutions. This acquisition gave the Company an established presence in Latin America’s largest specialty technology market and allowed the Company to more easily scale its Latin American operations.
Under the share purchase and sale agreement entered into with CDC, the Company structured the purchase transaction as an all cash share purchase with an initial payment of $36.2 million, net of cash acquired, and assumed working capital payables and debt at closing. The remaining purchase price is payable in annual cash installments based upon the financial performance of CDC for the twelve month periods ended on June 30 from 2011 through 2015. As of June 30, 2015, there is one remaining earnout payment to be made to the former shareholders. Please see Note 9 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further information regarding the fair value accounting for this contingent consideration and Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies for further information regarding pre-acquisition contingencies and related indemnification receivables.
The purchase price allocated to the fair value of identified intangible assets associated with the acquisition of CDC is as follows:

| Amount
| (in thousands)
Identified intangible assets | $ | 22,605 |

The weighted-average amortization period for these identified intangible assets after purchase accounting adjustments, other than goodwill, was 5 years.

(6) | Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or whenever indicators of impairment are present. This testing includes the determination of each reporting unit's fair value using a discounted cash flows model compared to each reporting unit's carrying value. Historically, the reporting units utilized for goodwill impairment tests were primarily based on geography, one level below
62

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
June 30, 2015
the Barcode & Security and Communications & Services operating segments. During fiscal year 2015, the Company reorganized its reporting units to align directly with its operating segments.
During fiscal years 2015 and 2014, no impairment charges related to goodwill were recorded. In accordance with ASC 350, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on both the historical reporting units based on geography and the new reporting units based on operating segments for fiscal year 2015. Under the historical reporting units, the estimated fair value of the Company's Latin American goodwill reporting unit exceeded its carrying values by a smaller margin than the Company's other goodwill reporting units, excluding reporting units acquired during fiscal year 2015. The estimated fair value of the Latin America goodwill reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 26.5% and 10.2% for fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in sensitivity to this goodwill reporting unit is driven largely by the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations for future results in the unit. Key assumptions used in determining fair value include projected growth and operating margin, working capital requirements and discount rates.
During fiscal year 2013, the Company completed its annual impairment test as of June 30, 2013 and determined that a goodwill impairment charge was necessary for its Brazilian POS & Barcode and European Communications reporting units. Prior to the test, no interim impairment indicators were identified. The Company's impairment testing included the determination of the reporting unit's fair value using market multiples and discounted cash flows modeling based on forecasts which were discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital (a level 3 input). The impairment charges were a result of reduced earnings and cash flow forecast primarily due to the general macroeconomic environment and lower expectations of future results. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded a non-cash charge for goodwill impairment of $5.4 million and $15.1 million in Europe Communications and Brazil POS & Barcode, respectively, which are included on the Consolidated Income Statements.
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, by reportable segment, are as follows:

| Barcode & Security Segment |  | Communications & Services Segment |  | Total

(7) | Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt

Short-Term Borrowings
Imago ScanSource has multi-currency invoice discounting credit facilities secured by the subsidiary’s assets for its operations based in the United Kingdom and France. The invoice discounting facilities allow for the issuance of funds up to 85% of the amount of each invoice processed, subject to limits by currency of £4.1 million, €4.1 million, and $0.7 million. Borrowings under the invoice discounting facilities bear interest at a base rate determined by currency, plus a spread of 1.85%. The base rate is the United Kingdom base rate published by the Bank of England for British pound sterling-based borrowings, 30-day Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EUROLIBOR") for Euro-based borrowings, and the Lloyds Bank daily USD published rate for the U.S. dollar-based borrowings. Additionally, the Company is assessed an annual commitment fee of less than £0.1 million. There were no outstanding balances at June 30, 2015.
Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a $300 million multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature on October 11, 2016. On November 6, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment of this credit facility ("Amended Credit Agreement") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and a syndicate of lenders to extend its maturity to November 6, 2018. The Amended Credit Agreement allows for the issuance of up to $50 million for letters of credit and has a $150 million accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the availability to $450 million, subject to obtaining additional credit commitments for the lenders participating in the increase. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $0.5 million in connection with the Amended Credit Agreement, which were capitalized to other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and added to the unamortized debt issuance costs from the previous credit facility.
At the Company's option, loans denominated in U.S. dollars under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's ratio of total debt (excluding accounts payable and accrued liabilities), measured as of the end of the most recent quarter, to adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the most recently completed four quarters (the "Leverage Ratio"). The Leverage Ratio calculation excludes the Company's subsidiary in Brazil. This spread ranges from 1.00% to 2.25% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 1.25% for alternate base rate loans. The spread in effect for the period ended June 30, 2015 was 1.00% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% for alternate base rate loans.

Long-Term Debt
On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the State of Mississippi in order to provide financing for the acquisition and installation of certain equipment to be utilized at the Company’s current Southaven, Mississippi distribution facility, through the issuance of an industrial development revenue bond. The bond matures on September 1, 2032 and accrues interest at a rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus a spread of 0.85%. The terms of the bond allow for payment of interest only for the first 10 years of the agreement, and then, starting on September 1, 2018 through 2032, principal and interest payments are due until the maturity date or the redemption of the bond. The agreement also provides the bondholder with a put option, exercisable only within 180 days of each 5 th anniversary of the agreement, requiring the Company to pay back the bonds at 100% of the principal amount outstanding. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under this bond. The balance on the bond was $5.4 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and is included in long-term debt.

(8) Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company’s results of operations could be materially impacted by significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. These risks and the management of these risks are discussed in greater detail below. In an effort to manage the exposure to these risks, the Company periodically enters into various derivative instruments. The Company’s accounting policies for these instruments are based on whether the instruments are designated as hedge or non-hedge instruments in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments or the ineffective portions of cash flow hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense.
Foreign Currency Derivatives – The Company conducts a portion of its business internationally in a variety of foreign currencies. The exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, and transactions arising from non-functional currency financing or trading activities. The Company’s objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows. The Company attempts to hedge transaction exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through forward contracts or other hedging instruments with third parties. These contracts will periodically hedge the exchange of various currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Brazilian real, euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso and Chilean peso. While the Company utilizes foreign exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency exposure, the Company's foreign exchange policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
At June 30, 2015, the Company had contracts outstanding with notional amounts of $80.6 million to exchange foreign currencies. To date, the Company has chosen not to designate these derivatives as hedging instruments, and accordingly, these instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense. Summarized financial information related to these derivative contracts and changes in the underlying value of the foreign currency exposures are as follows:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
| (in thousands)
Net foreign exchange derivative contract (gain) loss | $ | (5,364 | ) |  | $ | 3,640 |  |  | $ | (733 | )
Net foreign currency transactional and re-measurement (gain) loss | 8,408 |  |  | (3,024 | ) |  | 701 |
Net foreign currency (gain) loss | $ | 3,044 |  |  | $ | 616 |  |  | $ | (32 | )

Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses and are included in other income and expense. Foreign exchange gains and losses are generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar versus the euro, British pound versus the euro, and other currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Cross-Currency Swaps – Through the acquisition of Network1, the Company has borrowings denominated in foreign currencies that have primarily been hedged into the functional currency of the respective borrowing entity using cross-currency swaps in order to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exposures and interest rate exposures on these borrowings. These swaps involve the exchange of principal and fixed interest receipts of U.S. dollar-denominated debt held by one of our Brazilian subsidiaries (Network1) for principal and variable interest payments in Brazilian reais. The impact of the changes in foreign exchange rates of the cross-currency debt instruments are recognized as adjustments to other income and expense in the Consolidated Income Statements. Interest rate differentials paid or received under the swap agreements are recognized as adjustments to interest expense in the Consolidated Income Statements, which totaled approximately $0.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2015. The fair value of the swaps was a receivable of $0.1 million as of June 30, 2015 and is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company has the following derivative instruments located on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Income Statements, utilized for the risk management purposes detailed above:

(9) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Under this guidance, the Company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy, which groups fair value-measured assets and liabilities based upon the following levels of inputs:

• | 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 inputs which 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 (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

The assets and liabilities maintained by the Company that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis include deferred compensation plan investments, outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts and contingent consideration owed to the previous owners of CDC, Imago ScanSource, and Network1. The carrying value of debt listed in Note 7 - Short-Term Borrowings and Long Term Debt is considered to approximate fair value, as the Company's debt instruments are indexed to a variable rate using the market approach (Level 2 criteria) or the fixed rate applied approximates the variable rate published as of June 30, 2015.

These investments are recorded to prepaid and other current assets or other non-current assets depending on their corresponding, anticipated distributions to recipients, which are reported in accrued expenses and other current liabilities or other long-term non-current liabilities, respectively.
Derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swap agreements are measured using the market approach on a recurring basis considering foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency

dealers and interest rates quoted by banks (Level 2). See Note 8 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Foreign currency contracts and cross-currency swap agreements are classified in the consolidated balance sheet as prepaid expenses and other current assets or accrued expenses and other current liabilities, depending on the respective instruments' favorable or unfavorable positions.
The Company recorded contingent consideration liabilities at the acquisition date of CDC, Imago ScanSource and Network1 representing the amounts payable to former shareholders, as outlined under the terms of the applicable share purchase agreements, based upon the achievement of a projected earnings measure, net of specific pro forma adjustments. The current and non-current portions of these obligations are reported separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the contingent considerations (Level 3) are determined using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities are recorded to the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item in the Consolidated Income Statements. Fluctuations due to foreign currency translation are captured in other comprehensive income through the changes in foreign currency translation adjustments line item as seen in Note 16 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
CDC is part of the Company's Worldwide Barcode and Security Segment, and Imago ScanSource and Network1 are part of the Company's Worldwide Communications and Services segment.
The tables below provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the Company’s contingent considerations for the CDC, Imago ScanSource, and Network1 earnouts, which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

The fair values of amounts owed are recorded in current portion of contingent consideration and long-term portion of contingent consideration in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The U.S. dollar amounts of actual disbursements made in conjunction with future earnout payments are subject to change as the liability is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and subject to foreign exchange fluctuation risk. Also, in accordance with ASC 805, the Company will revalue the contingent consideration liability at each reporting date through the last payment, with changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration

reflected in the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item on the Company's Consolidated Income Statement that is included in the calculation of operating income. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future earnout payments is based on several factors, including:

• | estimated future results, net of pro forma adjustments set forth in the applicable share purchase agreements;

• | the probability of achieving these results; and

• | a discount rate reflective of the Company's creditworthiness and market risk premium associated with the Brazilian and European markets.

A change in any of these unobservable inputs can significantly change the fair value of the contingent consideration.
Barcode and Security
The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to CDC recognized at June 30, 2015 was $5.1 million, all of which is classified as current. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $11.1 million, of which $5.9 million was classified as current. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement contributed a loss of $1.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2015. Generally, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration will generate a loss as the earnout period lapses. In the current year, the loss was primarily driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and achievement of better than expected actual results. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange rate between the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar has driven significant changes in the translation of the real-denominated liability. Although there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are estimated to range up to $5.3 million, based on the Company's best estimate as the earnout is based on a multiple of adjusted earnings.
Communications and Services Segment
The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Imago ScanSource recognized at June 30, 2015 was $5.4 million of which $2.6 million is classified as current. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements contributed a loss of $0.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2015. In the current year, the loss is largely driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and achievement of better than expected actual results. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar has driven changes in the translation of this British pound denominated liability. Although there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are anticipated to range between $5.3 million and $6.1 million, based on the Company’s best estimate of the earnout calculated on a multiple of adjusted earnings, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Network1 recognized at June 30, 2015 was $23.5 million of which $1.7 million is classified as current. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements contributed a loss of $0.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2015. In the current year, the loss is largely driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount, offset by less than expected actual results. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange rate between the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar has driven significant changes in the translation of this Brazilian real denominated liability. Although there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are anticipated to range up to $32.7 million, based on the Company’s best estimate of the earnout calculated on a multiple of adjusted earnings, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus the effects of foreign exchange.

(10) Share-Based Compensation
Share-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has awards outstanding from four share-based compensation plans (the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1999 Director Plan, the 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan, and the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan). Awards are currently only granted under the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. As of June 30, 2015, there were 2,446,465 shares available for future grant under the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. All of the Company’s share-based compensation plans are shareholder approved, and it is the Company’s belief that such awards better align the interests of its employees and directors with those of its shareholders. Under the plans, the Company is authorized to award officers, employees, consultants and non-employee members of the Board of Directors various share-based payment awards, including options to purchase common stock and restricted stock. Restricted stock can be in the form of a restricted stock award ("RSA"), restricted stock unit ("RSU") or a performance unit ("PU"). An RSA is common stock that is subject to risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that lapse upon satisfaction of specified conditions. An RSU represents the right to receive shares of common stock in the future with the right to future delivery of the shares subject to risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that lapse upon satisfaction of specified conditions.
The Company accounts for its share-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC 718 – Stock Compensation, which requires all share-based compensation to be recognized in the income statement based on fair value and applies to all awards granted, modified, canceled, or repurchased after the effective date. Total share-based compensation included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Income Statements was as follows:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30,

Equity classified restricted stock | 5,042 |  |  | 3,671 |  |  | 3,493 |
Total share-based compensation | $ | 6,522 |  |  | $ | 5,248 |  |  | $ | 5,618 |

Stock Options
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the Company granted stock options for 166,593 shares to certain employees. These options vest annually over 3 years and have a 10-year contractual life. In accordance with the requirements of the Company’s Equity Award Grant Policy and the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, the options issued during the fiscal year were granted with an exercise price that is no less than 100% of the fair market value of those shares on the date of the grant.
The fair value of each option (for purposes of calculation of share-based compensation) was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula that uses assumptions determined at the date of grant. Use of this option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them ("expected term"), the estimated volatility of our common stock price over the expected term ("expected volatility") and the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements ("forfeitures"). Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimate of the fair value of share-based compensation and, consequently, the related amount recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements.

The Company used the following weighted-average assumptions for the options granted during the following fiscal years:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Expected term | 4.02 years |  |  | 4.00 years |  |  | 4.64 years |
Expected volatility | 30.06 | % |  | 33.70 | % |  | 42.90 | %
Risk-free interest rate | 1.22 | % |  | 1.07 | % |  | 0.64 | %
Dividend yield | 0.00 | % |  | 0.00 | % |  | 0.00 | %
Weighted-average fair value per option | $ | 10.51 |  |  | $ | 11.91 |  |  | $ | 10.48 |

The weighted-average expected term of the options represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding based on historical trends and behaviors of certain groups and individuals receiving these awards. The expected volatility is predominately based on the historical volatility of our common stock for a period approximating the expected term. The risk-free interest rate reflects the interest rate at grant date on zero-coupon U.S. governmental bonds that have a remaining life similar to the expected option term. The dividend yield assumption was based on our dividend payment history and management's expectations of future dividend payments.
A summary of our stock option plans is presented below:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015
| Options |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, beginning of year | 1,071,097 |  |  | $ | 33.91 |  |  |  |  |
Granted during the period | 166,593 |  |  | 41.11 |  |  |  |  |
Exercised during the period | (71,659 | ) |  | 31.43 |  |  |  |  |
Canceled, forfeited, or expired during the period | — |  |  | — |  |  |  |  |
Outstanding, end of year | 1,166,031 |  |  | 35.09 |  |  | 5.38 |  | $ | 4,531,055 |
Vested and expected to vest at June 30, 2015 | 1,164,033 |  |  | 35.08 |  |  | 5.38 |  | $ | 4,530,942 |
Exercisable, end of year | 879,451 |  |  | $ | 33.49 |  |  | 4.24 |  | $ | 4,204,989 |

The aggregate intrinsic value was calculated using the market price of our stock on June 30, 2015 and the exercise price for only those options that have an exercise price that is less than the market price of our stock. This amount will change as the market price per share changes. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 was $0.6 million, $5.4 million, and $3.1 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock
Grants of Restricted Shares
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the Company elected to grant 194,232 shares of restricted stock to employees and non-employee directors, all of which were issued in the form of RSUs or PUs:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015
| Shares granted |  | Date granted |  | Grant date fair value |  | Vesting period
Employees |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Certain employees, vesting based on certain service and performance conditions (1) | 14,042 |  | June 25, 2014 |  | $ | 39.01 |  |  | July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2017
Certain employees | 2,006 |  | August 26, 2014 |  | 38.83 |  |  | Immediate vesting
Certain employees, vesting based on certain service and performance conditions | 8,336 |  | November 6, 2014 |  | 38.94 |  |  | November 6, 2014 through July 1, 2016
Certain employees | 150,143 |  |  | December 5, 2014 |  | 41.13 |  |  | Annually over 3 years
Certain employees | 991 |  |  | February 3, 2015 |  | 35.16 |  |  | Annually over 3 years
Certain employees based on promotions | 2,550 |  | May 5, 2015 |  | 39.05 |  |  | Annually over 3 years
Certain employees | 1,664 |  | June 5, 2015 |  | 39.21 |  |  | Annually over 3 years
Non-Employee Directors(2) |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Certain Directors | 14,500 |  | December 5, 2014 |  | $ | 41.13 |  |  | 6 months

(1) | These RSU grants have service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The total target shares under these grants are 14,042, but the actual number of shares that will vest depends on the performance of the Company. The grant date fair value of $39.01 is for the first tranche of these awards. The fair values for the second and third tranches of these awards has not yet been determined. See the The Company's 2014 Proxy Statement for further information about these grants.

(2) | Under the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, non-employee directors will receive annual awards of restricted stock, as opposed to stock options. The number of shares of restricted stock to be granted will be established from time to time by the Board of Directors. Currently, the number of shares of restricted stock awarded annually to each non-employee director generally will be determined by dividing $100,000 by the equity award value of the common stock on the date of grant, as defined in the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The equity award value means the value per share based on a 45-day averaging of the fair market value of the common stock over a specified period of time, or the fair market value of the common stock on a specified date. These awards will generally vest in full on the day that is six months after the date of grant or upon the earlier occurrence of (i) the director’s termination of service as a director by reason of death, disability or retirement, or (ii) a change in control by the Company. The compensation expense associated with these awards will be recognized on a pro-rata basis over this period.

A summary of the status of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock is presented below:

| Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015
| Shares |  | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding, beginning of year | 220,108 |  |  | $ | 37.36 |
Granted during the period | 194,232 |  |  | 40.87 |
Vested during the period | (119,995 | ) |  | 36.90 |
Cancelled, forfeited, or expired during the period | (15,149 | ) |  | 32.98 |
Outstanding, end of year | 279,196 |  |  | $ | 38.87 |

As of June 30, 2015, there was approximately $8.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.19 years. The Company withheld 37,157 shares for income taxes during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015.

(11) Employee Benefit Plans
The Company has a defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended that covers all employees located in the United States meeting certain eligibility requirements. The Company provided a matching contribution for each period which was equal to one-half of each participant’s contribution, up to a maximum matching contribution per participant of $800. The Company determines its matching contributions annually and can make discretionary contributions in addition to matching contributions. Employer contributions are vested based upon tenure over a five-year period.

The components of pretax earnings are as follows:

Domestic | $ | 79,364 |  |  | $ | 104,685 |  |  | $ | 64,581 |

Worldwide pretax earnings | $ | 99,906 |  |  | $ | 123,107 |  |  | $ | 53,026 |

As of June 30, 2015, there were (i) gross net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1.6 million for state income tax purposes; (ii) foreign gross net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $6.5 million; (iii) state income tax credit carryforwards of approximately $0.4 million that will began to expire in 2017; and (iv) withholding tax credits of approximately $1.9 million. As of June 30, 2015, the Company recorded a $0.3 million valuation reserve against foreign net operating loss carry-forwards, related to foreign operations acquired during the period. In addition to the valuation allowance for the foreign net operating losses, the Company maintains a less than $0.1 million valuation allowance for state net operating losses, a $1.9 million valuation allowance for withholding tax credits, and a $0.3 million valuation allowance for the notional interest deduction, where it was determined that, in accordance with ASC 740, it is more likely than not that they cannot be utilized.
The Company has provided for U.S. income taxes for the current earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. Earnings from all other geographies will continue to be considered retained indefinitely for reinvestment. The Company has not provided U.S. income taxes for undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are considered to be retained indefinitely for reinvestment. The distribution of these earnings would result in additional foreign withholding taxes and additional U.S. federal income taxes to the extent they are not offset by foreign tax credits. It has been the practice of the Company to reinvest those earnings in the business outside the United States. These undistributed earnings amounted to approximately $93.9 million at June 30, 2015. If these earnings were remitted to the U.S., they would be subject to income tax. The tax, after foreign tax credits, is estimated to be approximately $16.3 million.
In prior years, financial results in Europe have generated pre-tax losses, primarily due to our European Communications business. Financial results in Belgium for the year ended June 30, 2015 produced pre-tax income of approximately $4.2 million resulting in partial, approximately 45%, utilization of the deferred tax asset. In the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $1.3 million, $0.8 million of which, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. This reflects an increase of $0.1 million on a net basis over the prior fiscal year. The Company does not expect that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the accompanying Consolidated Income Statement. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The total amount of interest and penalties accrued, but excluded from the table below for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $1.2 million, $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

On June 3, 2014, the Company entered into an equipment lease transaction for certain information technology infrastructure located in the Greenville, South Carolina facility. The Company determined this lease qualifies as a capital lease and accordingly, has recorded a capital lease obligation equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments of $0.7 million. The lease term is 3 years with an expiration date during 2017.
The components of the Company's capital lease as of June 30, 2015 are as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies
A majority of the Company’s net revenues in fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013 were received from the sale of products purchased from the Company’s ten largest vendors. The Company has entered into written distribution agreements with substantially all of its major vendors. While the Company’s agreements with most of its vendors contain standard provisions for periodic renewals, these agreements generally permit termination by either party without cause upon 30 to 120 days' notice.
The Company or its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to lawsuits arising out of operations. Although there can be no assurance, based upon information known to the Company, the Company believes that any liability resulting from an adverse determination of such lawsuits would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In January 2013, through the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Partner Services, Inc. ("PSI"), the Company filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Atlanta, Georgia against our former ERP software systems integration partner, Avanade, Inc. ("Avanade"). In June 2014, the parties reached a Settlement Agreement where both parties agreed to mutually dismiss all claims and counterclaims against the other in exchange for Avanade's payment to the Company of $15.0 million. The Company also reversed $2.0 million in accrued liabilities for unpaid invoices received from Avanade and paid a contingency fee of $1.5 million to the law firm who represented the Company in the lawsuit. The settlement, net of attorney fees and reversal of accrued liabilities is included in the impairment charges (legal recovery) line item on the Consolidated Income Statements for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Enterprise Resource Planning
The Company has implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system. In December 2013, the Company retained SAP for software platform and implementation consulting services on the new ERP system. The Company's European operations, excluding Imago ScanSource, began utilizing the new ERP system during the third quarter of the current fiscal year. The Company's North America operations began utilizing the new ERP system during the first quarter of fiscal year 2016. The Company incurred $15.5 million and $13.2 million in the form of capital expenditures related to the ERP project, for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, amounts in accrued expenses and other current liabilities related to capital expenditures totaled $3.0 million.
Pre-Acquisition Contingencies
During the Company's due diligence for the CDC acquisition, several pre-acquisition contingencies were identified regarding various Brazilian federal and state tax exposures. The Company is able to record indemnification receivables that are reported gross of the pre-acquisition contingency liabilities as they were escrowed in the share purchase and sale agreement entered into with CDC. As part of the initial payment, the sellers placed $25.5 million into a special and exclusive bank account to be released according to the specifications of the Share Purchase and Sale Agreement to provide for potential indemnification liabilities. However, indemnity claims can be made up to the entire purchase price, which includes the initial payment and all future earnout payments. During fiscal year 2012, the Company and former shareholders released $5.3 million from the escrow account for the settlement of a pre-acquisition contingency and $2.5 million to the sellers. The amount available after the impact of foreign currency

translation, as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 for future pre-acquisition contingency settlements or to be released to the sellers, was $8.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively.
The table below summarizes the balances and line item presentation of CDC's pre-acquisition contingencies and corresponding indemnification receivables in the Company's consolidated balance sheet:

Liabilities |  |  |
Other current liabilities | $ | 3,156 |  |  | $ | 5,023 |
Other long-term liabilities | $ | 69 |  |  | $ | 1,221 |

The change in classification and amounts of the pre-acquisition contingencies is primarily due to foreign currency translation on a weaker Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar and the expiration of the statute of limitations for identified pre-acquisition contingencies. The amount of reasonably possible undiscounted pre-acquisition contingencies as of June 30, 2015 is estimated to range as high as $4.9 million at this time, of which all exposures are indemnifiable under the share purchase and sale agreement.
During the Company's due diligence for the Network1 acquisition, several pre-acquisition contingencies were identified regarding various Brazilian federal and state tax exposures. The Company is able to record indemnification receivables that are reported gross of the pre-acquisition contingency liabilities as they were escrowed in the share purchase agreement. As part of the initial payment, the sellers placed $3.8 million into a special and exclusive bank account to be released according to the specifications of the share purchase agreement to provide for potential indemnification liabilities. The amount available after the impact of foreign currency translation, as of June 30, 2015 for future pre-acquisition contingency settlements or to be released to the sellers, was $3.2 million.

(14) Segment Information
The Company is a leading distributor of specialty technology products, providing value-added distribution sales to resellers in specialty technology markets. The Company has two reportable segments, based on product and service type.
Worldwide Barcode & Security Segment
The Barcode & Security distribution segment focuses on automatic identification and data capture ("AIDC"), point-of-sale ("POS"), electronic physical security, and 3D printing technologies. We have business units within this segment for sales and merchandising functions, including ScanSource POS and Barcode business units in North America, Latin America, and Europe and the ScanSource Security business unit in North America. We see adjacencies among these technologies in helping our resellers develop solutions, such as with networking products.

ITEM 9. | Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A. | Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of those disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures will meet their objectives.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2015, were effective in providing reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015. However, businesses acquired during the current fiscal year, which include Imago Group plc on September 19, 2014 and Intersmart Comércio Importação Exportação de Equipamentos Eletrônicos, S.A. (Network1") on January 13, 2015 have been excluded from managements' assessment on internal controls over financial reporting. These businesses' individual and collective pro forma results are immaterial the Company's consolidated financial statements. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment using those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2015.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015 has been audited by Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their Report of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting which is included with the Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
