SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 revenue and expense during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates on a regular basis and bases them on historical experience and on various assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable. Actual results could differ from the estimates.
Segment Reporting
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company revised its reportable segments to align with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (the "CODM") manages the business, assesses performance and allocates resources. This change had no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Prior period segment results have been recast to reflect the Company’s new reportable segments. See Note 11 - Segment Information for further discussion of the Company's operating and reportable segments and the related accounting policies.
Goodwill
The Company allocates goodwill to reporting units based on the reporting unit expected to benefit from the business combination, and when there is a change in the Company's reporting structure in a manner that changes the composition of one or more of its reporting units, goodwill is allocated to the reporting units using a relative fair value approach. The Company tests for impairment annually as of September 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The factors that are considered in the qualitative analysis include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors such as increases in product cost, labor, or other costs that would have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows; and other relevant entity-specific events and information. The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period.
If the reporting unit does not pass or the Company chooses to bypass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using market and discounted cash flow approaches. The assumptions used in the market approach are based on the value of a business through an analysis of sales and other multiples of guideline companies and recent sales or offerings of a comparable entity. The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow approach are based on historical and forecasted revenue, operating costs, working capital requirements, future economic conditions, discount rates and other relevant factors. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value and the excess is recognized as an impairment loss.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company revised its operating segments and reportable segments as detailed in Note 11 - Segment Information. The change in segment structure also resulted in a change to the Company’s reporting units, which align to the Company's operating segments. The Company allocated goodwill to its new reporting units on a relative fair value basis, assessed goodwill before and after the change in reporting units, and concluded that no goodwill impairment existed. See Note 6 - Balance Sheet Components for a summary of the impacts of this reallocation by reportable segment.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, receivables from vendors and derivative instruments.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments are transacted and maintained with financial institutions with high credit standing, and their compositions and maturities are regularly monitored by management. Through May 31, 2026, the Company has not experienced any material credit losses on such deposits and derivative instruments.
Accounts receivable include amounts due from customers. Receivables from vendors, net, includes amounts due from original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") vendors primarily in the technology industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary, but generally requires no collateral. The Company also maintains allowances for expected credit losses. In estimating the required allowances, the Company takes into consideration the overall quality and aging of its receivable portfolio, the existence of credit insurance and specifically identified customer and vendor risks.
The following table provides revenue generated from products purchased from vendors that exceeded 10% of our consolidated revenue for the periods indicated (as a percent of consolidated revenue):

(1) Revenue generated from products purchased from this vendor was less than 10% of consolidated revenue during the period presented.
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenue during the three and six months ended May 31, 2026. One customer accounted for 11% and 10% of the Company's total revenue during the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, respectively. As of May 31, 2026 and November 30, 2025, no single customer comprised more than 10% of the consolidated accounts receivable balance.
Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts as an estimate to cover the future expected credit losses resulting from uncertainty regarding collections from customers or OEM vendors to make payments for outstanding balances. In estimating the required allowance, the Company takes into consideration historical credit losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current conditions as well as changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates or gross domestic product growth. Expected credit losses are estimated on a pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist using an age-based reserve model. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis.

The Company has uncommitted accounts receivable purchase agreements with global financial institutions under which trade accounts receivable of certain customers and their affiliates may be acquired, without recourse, by the financial institutions. Available capacity under these programs is dependent on the level of the Company’s trade accounts receivable with these customers and the financial institutions’ willingness to purchase such receivables. In addition, certain of these programs also require that the Company continue to service, administer and collect the sold accounts receivable. As of May 31, 2026 and November 30, 2025, accounts receivable sold to and held by the financial institutions under these programs were $2.3 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. Discount fees related to the sale of trade accounts receivable under these facilities are included in “Interest expense and finance charges, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Discount fees for these programs totaled $23.4 million and $44.2 million in the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, respectively and $13.5 million and $25.5 million in the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, respectively.
Seasonality
The Company's operating results are affected by the seasonality of the IT products industry. The Company has historically experienced slightly higher sales in the fourth fiscal quarter due to patterns in purchasing cycles of the Company's customers and end-users. These historical patterns may not be repeated in subsequent periods.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of various IT products.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of IT hardware and software as control is transferred to customers, which is at the point in time when the product is shipped or delivered. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when it has written approval, the contract is committed, the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified, the contract has commercial substance and consideration is probable of collection. Binding purchase orders from customers together with agreement to the Company's terms and conditions of sale by way of an executed agreement or other signed documents are considered to be the contract with a customer. Products sold by the Company are delivered via shipment from the Company’s facilities, drop-shipment directly from the vendor, or by electronic delivery of software products. In situations where arrangements include customer acceptance provisions, revenue is recognized when the Company can objectively verify the products comply with specifications underlying acceptance and the customer has control of the products. Revenue is presented net of taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities. The Company generally invoices a customer upon shipment, or in accordance with specific contractual provisions. Payments are due as per contract terms and do not contain a significant financing component. In relation to product support, supply chain management and other services performed by the Company, revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed.
Provisions for sales returns and allowances are estimated based on historical data and are recorded concurrently with the recognition of revenue. A liability is recorded at the time of sale for estimated product returns based upon historical experience and an asset is recognized for the amount expected to be recorded in inventory upon product return. These provisions are reviewed and adjusted periodically by the Company. Revenue is reduced for early payment discounts and volume incentive rebates offered to customers, which are considered variable consideration, at the time of sale based on an evaluation of the contract terms and historical experience.
The Company recognizes revenue on a net basis on certain contracts, where the Company’s performance obligation is to arrange for the products or services to be provided by another party or the rendering of logistics services for the delivery of inventory for which the Company does not assume the risks and rewards of ownership, by recognizing the margins earned in revenue with no associated cost of revenue. Such arrangements include supplier service contracts, post-contract software support services, cloud computing and software as a service arrangements, certain fulfillment contracts, extended warranty contracts and certain of the Company's systems design and integration solutions arrangements which operate under a customer-owned procurement model.
The Company considers shipping and handling activities as costs to fulfill the sale of products. Shipping revenue is included in revenue when control of the product is transferred to the customer, and the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenue.
The Company disaggregates its revenue by reportable segment. This disaggregation level appropriately depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Disaggregated revenue disclosure is presented in Note 11 – Segment Information.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company issued a warrant (“the Warrant”) to a customer for the purchase of up to an aggregate of approximately 3.2 million shares of the Company's common stock ("Warrant Shares"). The unvested Warrant Shares vest based on qualifying payments (as defined in the Warrant) for the purchase of products and services over the term of the Warrant and are recognized as a reduction of revenue as qualifying revenues are recognized. Refer to Note 3 – Share-Based Compensation for additional information.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the current period presentation, including revisions to our reportable segment disclosures (see Note 11 - Segment Information for further discussion). Except for the revisions to our reportable segment information, no other reclassifications had a material impact on previously reported amounts.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2025, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2025-04, to address diversity in accounting practice regarding share-based consideration issued to customers within the scope of Topic 606. ASU 2025-04 requires entities that issue such share-based consideration to apply the share-based payment guidance in Topic 718 to measure and classify the awards, and clarifies how vesting conditions and expected forfeitures affect the timing and amount of the related reduction of revenue. The amendments in ASU 2025-04 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on either a modified retrospective or a retrospective basis. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2025-04 retrospectively during the three months ended May 31, 2026, in connection with a specific transaction that is discussed further in Note 3 - Share-Based Compensation. The adoption of ASU 2025-04 did not impact prior periods.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2023-09, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures. The enhanced disclosures required include disclosure of specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. ASU 2023-09 also requires disclosure of disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 will be applied on a prospective basis in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2026, and will not have a material impact on the Company's income tax disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2024-03, which requires new tabular disclosures in the notes to consolidated financial statements, disaggregating certain cost and expense categories within relevant captions on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The prescribed cost and expense categories requiring disaggregated disclosures include purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization, along with certain other expense disclosures already required by U.S. GAAP that would need to be integrated within the new tabular disaggregated expense disclosures. Additionally, the amendments also require the disclosure of total selling expenses and an entity's definition of those expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, which for the Company would be the fiscal year ending November 30, 2028, and for subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard will have on its expense disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2025-05, which creates a new optional practical expedient related to the estimation of future expected credit losses on accounts receivable. If elected, this expedient removes the requirement, when estimating expected credit losses, to consider changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates or gross domestic product growth. Instead, companies electing the expedient may assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset. The amendments in ASU 2025-05 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods, which for the Company would be the fiscal first quarter ending February 28, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard could have on its estimates for future expected credit losses if the Company chooses to elect the optional practical expedient.
In September 2025, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2025-06, which amends guidance related to the accounting for internal-use software development costs. The amendments are intended to modernize the recognition and capitalization framework to reflect current software development practices, including iterative and agile methodologies, by removing references to "development stages". It also clarifies the criteria for capitalization, which begins when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods, which for the Company would be the fiscal first quarter ending February 28, 2029. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. ASU 2025-06 allows companies to elect one of the following adoption methods to apply its amendments: a prospective transition approach, a retrospective transition approach, or a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard will have on its policy for capitalization of development costs for software intended for internal use.
In November 2025, the FASB issued an accounting standards update, ASU 2025-09, which makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance and to address several incremental hedge accounting issues arising from the global reference rate reform initiative. Among other amendments, these improvements include expanding the hedged risks permitted to be aggregated in a group of individual forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge and clarifying the circumstance under which a group of individual forecasted transactions can be considered to have a similar risk exposure. The amendments in ASU 2025-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, which for the Company would be the fiscal first quarter ending February 29, 2028. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis for all hedging relationships. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard could have on its hedge accounting policies.
