Insights

Financial Analyst

Ingram Micro's Q4 2024 results reveal a return to growth trajectory with net sales of $13.3 billion, up 2.5% year-over-year (3.3% FX-neutral). This reversal from previous quarters' stagnation is encouraging, particularly in Cloud and Client/Endpoint Solutions. However, profitability metrics show concerning compression, with gross margin declining to 7.01% from 7.52% year-over-year, and operating margin dropping to 1.86% from 2.54%.

The margin pressure stems from three key factors: 1) sales mix shift toward lower-margin products, 2) geographic mix favoring the lower-margin Asia-Pacific region, and 3) one-time charges including India-related issues ($20.3 million) and IPO-related stock compensation ($34.1 million).

Cash flow metrics demonstrate management's focus on working capital efficiency, with Q4 operating cash flow of $310 million and full-year adjusted free cash flow of $443.3 million. This enabled Ingram to reduce debt by $483.1 million in 2024 and $1.56 billion since 2022.

The newly announced dividend ($0.074/share) and $75 million share repurchase authorization signal management confidence and commitment to shareholder returns. Regional performance was mixed, with North America and Asia-Pacific showing revenue growth while EMEA declined slightly, and all regions except Latin America experiencing operating margin compression.

Looking ahead, management's commentary suggests ongoing momentum into 2025, though margin compression remains a concern as the company prioritizes growth and operational efficiency over short-term profitability maximization.

Consolidated Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

• Net sales totaled $13.3 billion, compared to $13.0 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter, representing an increase of 2.5%. The year-over-year increase was primarily a result of higher net sales in our North America, Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions, partially offset by a net sales decline in our EMEA region. The translation impact of foreign currencies relative to the US Dollar had an approximate 0.8% negative impact on the year-over-year net sales comparison.

• Gross profit was $936.1 million, compared to $978.7 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

• Gross margin was 7.01%, compared to 7.52% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was driven by a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions net sales, as well as mix towards the lower-margin, lower cost-to-serve Asia-Pacific region and a higher mix of large enterprise project sales, which typically yield lower margins.

• Income from operations was $248.5 million, compared to $330.9 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Adjusted income from operations was $305.2 million, compared to $372.8 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Included in the results for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2024 is $34.1 million of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, or 26 basis points of net sales, representing the value of restricted stock units that immediately vested in connection with our initial public offering (“IPO”) in October 2024. Also included in these results are the impacts of discrete charges in India, which yielded inventory write-offs impacting gross profit by $9.1 million, or 7 basis points of net sales, and goods and services tax charges and higher professional services costs impacting operating expenses by $11.2 million, or 8 basis points of net sales in the 2024 quarter.

• Income from operations margin was 1.86%, compared to 2.54% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Adjusted income from operations margin was 2.29% compared to 2.86% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. This year-over-year decrease was primarily due to the mix shift in net sales and resulting impact on gross margins, as well as the impact of restricted stock units vesting and the India charges noted above which negatively impacted the current year margin by 41 basis points.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $418.1 million, compared to $435.4 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

• Diluted EPS was $0.36, compared to $0.61 in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.92, compared to $0.99 in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The EPS impact of the India items noted above was $0.07.

• Cash provided in operations was $310.0 million, compared to $0.9 million used in operations in the prior fiscal fourth quarter, and adjusted free cash flow was $337.2 million, compared to $13.4 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

Regional Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

North America

Net sales were $4.7 billion, compared to $4.5 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase in North American net sales was driven by strength across all lines of business, particularly PCs, server and storage. Net sales in the current year were particularly strong with our large enterprise customers.

Income from operations was $115.2 million, compared to $125.3 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $8.6 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year fiscal fourth quarter.

Income from operations margin was 2.47%, compared to 2.76% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter, primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions and enterprise customers as well as restructuring costs impacting the current year fiscal fourth quarter by 17 basis points. These impacts were partially offset by continued optimization of our operating expenses, including restructuring actions taken in 2023 and early 2024.

EMEA

Net sales were $4.1 billion, a decrease of 1.5% compared to the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in EMEA net sales was primarily a result of a decrease in advanced solutions, partially offset by modest growth in client and endpoint solutions.

Income from operations was $90.9 million, compared to $106.9 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $4.3 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year fiscal fourth quarter.

Income from operations margin was 2.23%, compared to 2.59% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, as well as restructuring costs impacting the current year fiscal fourth quarter by 11 basis points.

Asia-Pacific

Net sales were $3.6 billion, compared to $3.3 billion in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The increase in Asia-Pacific net sales was driven by net sales of client and endpoint solutions, led by growth in tablets and consumer electronics product sales, partially offset by softer advanced solutions.

Income from operations was $53.5 million, compared to $76.4 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

Income from operations margin was 1.49%, compared to 2.29% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. These regional results include a 56 basis point negative impact of the discrete charges in India noted previously. The remaining year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily the result of a greater mix of lower-margin client and endpoint solutions offset partially by improved operating expense leverage.

Latin America

Net sales were $1.0 billion in both the current and prior fiscal fourth quarter. The 0.9% decrease in Latin American net sales was primarily driven by currency translation rates, which had a negative impact of 8.4% on the year-over-year comparison of net sales. All lines of business grew year-over-year on an FX neutral basis.

Income from operations was $44.1 million, compared to $34.1 million in the prior fiscal fourth quarter.

Income from operations margin was 4.35%, compared to 3.34% in the prior fiscal fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase in income from operations margin was a result of strong sales growth in higher-margin advanced solutions and cloud offerings.

Consolidated Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights

• Net sales totaled $48.0 billion, representing a decrease of 0.1% from the prior fiscal year, although the translation impact of foreign currencies relative to the US Dollar had an approximate 0.4% negative impact on this year-over-year comparison. While net sales showed strong growth in the Asia-Pacific region through the year, this was offset by softer results in the other three regions.

• Gross profit was $3,444.9 million, compared to $3,547.1 million in the prior fiscal year.

• Gross margin was 7.18%, compared to 7.38% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was driven by generally stronger volumes in our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions net sales as well as an overall mix shift towards our lower-margin, lower cost-to-serve Asia-Pacific region.

• Income from operations was $817.9 million, compared to $944.3 million in the prior fiscal year. Adjusted income from operations was $999.7 million, compared to $1,103.6 million in the prior fiscal year.

• Income from operations margin was 1.70%, compared to 1.97% in the prior fiscal year. Adjusted income from operations margin was 2.08%, compared to 2.30% in the prior fiscal year. This year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a mix shift towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions net sales, while cost controls and reduction actions taken in 2024 and earlier yielded positive operating expense leverage year-over-year. Included in the results for fiscal 2024 are discrete charges in India that impacted gross margin and income from operations as well as the stock-based compensation charge with our IPO. Combined these factors contributed to a 13 basis point negative impact on income from operations margin.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $1,318.6 million, compared to $1,353.1 million in the prior year.

• Diluted EPS was $1.18, compared to $1.59 in the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $2.79, compared to $2.87 in the prior fiscal year.

• Cash provided by operations was $333.8 million, compared to $58.8 million in the prior fiscal year, and adjusted free cash flow was $443.3 million, compared to $19.9 million in the prior fiscal year. We continue to manage our balance sheet with a focus on return on investment, profitable growth, and quality of net sales over time.

Regional Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights

North America

Net sales were $17.4 billion, compared to $18.2 billion in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in North American net sales was driven by declines in advanced solutions and client and endpoint solutions, partially offset by strong growth in cloud and other.

Income from operations was $322.2 million, compared to $350.9 million in the prior fiscal year.

Income from operations margin was 1.85%, compared to 1.93% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, partially offset by continued optimization of our operating expenses, including restructuring actions taken in 2023 and early 2024.

EMEA

Net sales were $14.3 billion, a decrease of 1.5% compared to the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in EMEA net sales was primarily a result of a decrease in advanced solutions, partially offset by solid growth in cloud and modest growth in client and endpoint solutions.

Income from operations was $259.4 million, compared to $317.2 million in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $13.9 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year.

Income from operations margin was 1.82%, compared to 2.19% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix towards our lower-margin client and endpoint solutions, including a challenging comparison to prior year where margins and vendor programs were stronger, particularly on certain supply-constrained products mainly in advanced solutions. The restructuring charges noted above, as well as an increase in SG&A expenses driven by inflationary and other factors, also impacted this year-over-year comparison.

Asia-Pacific

Net sales were $12.8 billion, compared to $11.6 billion in the prior fiscal year. The increase in Asia-Pacific net sales was driven by stronger net sales of client and endpoint solutions, led by growth in smartphones and consumer electronics. The translation impact of foreign currencies relative to the US Dollar had an approximate 1% negative impact on the year-over-year net sales comparison.

Income from operations was $223.4 million, compared to $247.1 million in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease was impacted by an increase of $5.7 million in restructuring charges taken in the current year.

Income from operations margin was 1.75% compared to 2.14% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in income from operations margin was primarily the result of a mix shift towards lower-margin client and endpoint solutions offset partially by improved operating expense leverage. The year-over-year comparison was also negatively impacted by 23 basis points from the discrete charges in India previously noted in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2024 as well as a 5 basis point increase in restructuring charges noted above.

Latin America

Net sales were $3.6 billion, compared to $3.8 billion in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in Latin American net sales was primarily driven by declines in net sales of advanced solutions and client and endpoint solutions, partially offset by robust growth in cloud. Furthermore, the translation impact of foreign currencies to the US Dollar had an approximate 3% negative impact on year-over-year net sales comparisons.

Income from operations was $119.6 million, compared to $93.5 million in the prior fiscal year.

Income from operations margin was 3.33% compared to 2.47% in the prior fiscal year. The year-over-year increase in income from operations margin was a result of stronger gross margins across most categories coupled with strong operating expense management throughout the year. Latin America’s operating margin also benefited by 47 basis points year-over-year related to an improvement in bad debt expenses due to a single project that generated reserves in 2023, but for which amounts were collected and reserves reversed in 2024.

Fiscal First Quarter 2025 Outlook

The following outlook is forward-looking, based on the Company’s current expectations for the fiscal first quarter of 2025, and actual results may differ materially from what is indicated. We provide EPS guidance on a non-GAAP basis because certain information necessary to reconcile such guidance to GAAP is difficult to estimate and dependent on future events outside of our control.⁽¹⁾

	Thirteen Weeks Ended March 29, 2025
($ in millions, except per share data)	Low			High
Net sales	$	11,425		$	11,825
Gross profit	$	785		$	835
Non-GAAP Diluted EPS	$	0.51		$	0.61

Our fiscal first quarter guidance is reflective of a continued strengthening market in the North America and Latin America regions, but with heavier concentration towards client and endpoint solutions, as well as large enterprise customers. A softer demand environment in western European markets and significant competitive pressures on pricing of large projects in India are also factors in our outlook on gross profit in the fiscal first quarter of 2025. Our guidance assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 30% on a non-GAAP basis, and 234.9 million diluted shares outstanding.

Dividend Payment

The Company’s board of directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.074 per share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable on March 25, 2025, to stockholders of record as of March 11, 2025.

Share Repurchase Plan

The Company’s board of directors has also approved a share repurchase plan whereby, from time to time, the Company may repurchase up to $75 million of the Company’s common stock in connection with one or more secondary public offerings by Imola JV Holdings, L.P., our controlling stockholder, when an independent committee of the board of directors deems such repurchases are appropriate. Such repurchase authority expires on February 26, 2026.

⁽¹⁾ Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to presenting financial results that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we have included in this release some or all of the following non-GAAP financial measures—adjusted income from operations, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, return on invested capital (“ROIC”), adjusted ROIC, non-GAAP net income, adjusted free cash flow, and non-GAAP EPS—which are financial measures that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our business and the underlying trends that are affecting our performance. These non-GAAP measures are primary indicators that our management uses internally to conduct and measure its business and evaluate the performance of its consolidated operations, ongoing results, and trends. Our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful as they provide meaningful comparisons to prior periods and an alternate view of the impact of acquired businesses. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. A material limitation associated with these non-GAAP measures as compared to the GAAP measures is that they may not be comparable to other companies with similarly titled items that present related measures differently. The non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. See “Schedule A: Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in the “Supplemental Information” section further below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.

Supplemental Information

SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (unaudited)

In addition to its reported results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company has included in this release adjusted income from operations, adjusted EBITDA, return on invested capital (“ROIC”), adjusted ROIC, non-GAAP net income, adjusted free cash flow, and non-GAAP EPS, which are defined as follows:

• Adjusted Income from Operations means income from operations plus (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) restructuring costs incurred primarily related to employee termination benefits in connection with actions to align our cost structure in certain markets, (iii) integration and transition costs and (iv) the advisory fees paid to Platinum Advisors, LLC (“Platinum Advisors”), an entity affiliated with Platinum, under a corporate advisory services agreement (which has been terminated as a result of our IPO) (such terminated agreement, the “CASA”).

• We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (calculated as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses) adjusted to give effect to (i) restructuring costs incurred primarily related to employee termination benefits in connection with actions to align our cost structure in certain markets, (ii) net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses including net gains and losses on derivative instruments not receiving hedge accounting treatment, (iii) costs of integration, transition, and operational improvement initiatives, as well as consulting, retention and transition costs associated with our organizational effectiveness programs charged to selling, general and administrative expenses, (iv) the advisory fees paid to Platinum Advisors under the CASA, (v) cash-based compensation expense associated with our cash-based long-term incentive program for certain employees in lieu of equity-based compensation prior to the IPO, (vi) stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units issued in connection with our IPO, and (vii) certain other items as defined in our credit agreements.

• Return on Invested Capital is defined as net income divided by the invested capital for the period. Invested capital is equal to stockholders’ equity plus long-term debt plus short-term debt and the current maturities of long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents at the end of each period.

• Adjusted Return on Invested Capital is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the invested capital for the period. Adjusted Net Income for a particular period is defined as net income plus (i) other income/expense, (ii) amortization of intangibles, (iii) restructuring costs incurred primarily related to employee termination benefits in connection with actions to align our cost structure in certain markets, (iv) integration and transition costs, (v) the advisory fees paid to Platinum Advisors under the CASA, plus (vi) the GAAP tax provisions for and/or valuation allowances on items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) plus (vii) the GAAP tax provisions for and/or valuation allowances on large non-recurring or discrete items.

• We define Non-GAAP Net Income as net income adjusted to give effect to (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) restructuring costs incurred primarily related to employee termination benefits in connection with actions to align our cost structure in certain markets, (iii) net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses including net gains and losses on derivative instruments not receiving hedge accounting treatment, (iv) costs of integration, transition, and operational improvement initiatives, as well as consulting, retention and transition costs associated with our organizational effectiveness programs charged to selling, general and administrative expenses, (v) the advisory fees paid to Platinum Advisors under the CASA, (vi) cash-based compensation expense associated with our cash-based long-term incentive program for certain employees in lieu of equity-based compensation prior to our IPO, (vii) stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units issued in connection with our IPO, (viii) certain other items as defined in our credit agreements, (ix) the GAAP tax provisions for and/or valuation allowances on items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), and (viii) and (x) the GAAP tax provisions for and/or valuation allowances on large non-recurring or discrete items. This metric differs from Adjusted Net Income, which is a component of Adjusted ROIC as described above.

• We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as net income adjusted to give effect to (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) other non-cash items and changes to non-working capital assets/liabilities, (iii) changes in working capital, (iv) proceeds from the deferred purchase price of factored receivables and (v) capital expenditures.

• We define non-GAAP basic EPS as Non-GAAP Net Income divided by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period presented. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Net Income by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period presented, inclusive of the dilutive effect of participating securities.

(a)	GAAP and non-GAAP Diluted EPS for the Thirteen Weeks Ended December 28, 2024 and the Fiscal Year Ended December 28, 2024 includes 288,173 and 72,043, respectively, of outstanding restricted stock units that are dilutive.

Our GAAP and non-GAAP diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income amounts include the impact of $20.3 million, or $0.07 per share for the Thirteen Weeks Ended December 28, 2024, and $29.1 million, or $0.10 per share, for the Fiscal Year Ended December 28, 2024, from the discrete India charges noted earlier in this release.

Our release contains forward-looking estimates of non-GAAP diluted EPS for the fiscal first quarter 2025. We provide this non-GAAP measure to investors on a prospective basis for the same reasons (set forth above) that we provide it to investors on a historical basis. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of our forward-looking estimate of fiscal first quarter 2025 GAAP diluted EPS to a forward-looking estimate of fiscal first quarter 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS because certain information needed to make a reasonable forward-looking estimate of GAAP diluted EPS for fiscal first quarter 2025 is unreasonably difficult to predict and estimate and is often dependent on future events that may be uncertain or outside of our control, such as unanticipated non-recurring items not reflective of ongoing operations. In addition, we believe such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our future financial results. Our forward-looking estimates of both GAAP and non-GAAP measures of our financial performance may differ materially from our actual results and should not be relied upon as statements of fact.
