NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) (Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of Applied Industrial Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”, or “Applied”) as of September 30, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, have been included. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024.

Operating results for the three month period ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.

Inventory

The Company uses the LIFO method of valuing U.S. inventories. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory determination. LIFO expense of $1,976 and $4,591 in the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, is recorded in cost of sales in the condensed statements of consolidated income.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued its final standard to improve income tax disclosures. This standard, issued as ASU 2023-09, requires public business entities to annually disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company has not yet determined the impact of this pronouncement on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued its final standard to improve reportable segment disclosures. This standard, issued as ASU 2023-07, requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, enhances interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contains other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with the interim disclosure requirements being effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company has not yet determined the impact of this pronouncement on its financial statements and related disclosures.

The Company’s contract assets consist of unbilled amounts resulting from contracts for which revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method, and for which revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer.

Activity related to contract assets, which are included in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, is as follows:


	September 30, 2024		June 30, 2024		$ Change		% Change
Contract assets	$	12,543	$	12,648	$	(105)	(0.8)	%

The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company's contract assets primarily results from the timing difference between the Company's performance and when the customer is billed.

Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan

In December 2021, the Company entered into a five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility provides a $900,000 unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $500,000. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at either the base rate plus a margin that ranges from 0 to 55 basis points based on net leverage ratio or SOFR plus a margin that ranges from 80 to 155 basis points based on the net leverage ratio. Borrowing capacity under this facility, without exercising the accordion feature, totaled $515,757 and $515,800 at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, and are available to fund future acquisitions or other capital and operating requirements. These amounts are net of outstanding letters of credit of $243 and $200 at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, to secure certain insurance obligations. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 5.75% and 6.24% as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively.

Additionally, the Company had letters of credit outstanding not associated with the revolving credit agreement, in the amount of $5,336 and $4,046 as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, in order to secure certain insurance obligations.

Trade Receivable Securitization Facility

In August 2018, the Company established a trade receivable securitization facility (the “AR Securitization Facility”). The AR Securitization Facility effectively increases the Company’s borrowing capacity by collateralizing a portion of the amount of the U.S. operations’ trade accounts receivable. The Company uses the proceeds from the AR Securitization Facility as an alternative to other forms of debt, effectively reducing borrowing costs. The AR Securitization Facility's maximum borrowing capacity is $250,000, fees on amounts borrowed are 0.90% per year, and the term goes to August 4, 2026. Borrowing capacity is further subject to changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels or certain characteristics of the accounts receivable portfolio and, therefore, at certain times, we may not be able to fully access the $250,000 of borrowing capacity available under the AR Securitization Facility. Borrowings under the AR Securitization Facility carry variable interest rates tied to SOFR.

(Amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) (Unaudited)

The interest rate on the AR Securitization Facility as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024 was 5.85% and 6.35%, respectively.

Unsecured Shelf Facility

At September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had borrowings outstanding under its unsecured shelf facility agreement with Prudential Investment Management of $25,000. Fees on this facility range from 0.25% to 1.25% per year based on the Company's leverage ratio at each quarter end. The “Series E” notes have a principal amount of $25,000, carry a fixed interest rate of 3.08%, and are due on October 30, 2024.

Other Long-Term Borrowing

In 2014, the Company assumed $2,359 of debt as a part of the headquarters facility acquisition. The 1.50% fixed interest rate note is held by the State of Ohio Development Services Agency, and matures in November 2024.

6. DERIVATIVES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.

In January 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to mitigate variability in forecasted interest payments on $463,000 of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured variable rate debt. The notional amount declined over time to $384,000 as principal payments were made. The interest rate swap effectively converts a portion of the floating rate interest payment into a fixed rate interest payment. The Company designated the interest rate swap as a pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap instrument and is accounting for this derivative as a cash flow hedge. During fiscal 2021, the Company completed a transaction to amend and extend the interest rate swap agreement which resulted in an extension of the maturity date to January 31, 2026. The pay-fixed interest rate swap is considered a hybrid instrument with a financing component and an embedded at-market derivative that was designated as a cash flow hedge. The weighted average fixed pay rate is 1.58% and the interest rate swap is indexed to SOFR. The Company made various accounting elections related to changes in critical terms of the hedging relationship due to reference rate reform to preserve the hedging relationship.

The interest rate swap converted $384,000 of variable rate debt to a rate of 2.48% as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024. The fair value (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy) of the interest rate cash flow hedge was $10,166 and $18,081 as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, which is included in other current assets and other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Amounts reclassified from other comprehensive loss, before tax, to interest (income) expense, net was income of $4,691 and $4,638 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

With more than 6,500 employees across North & Central America, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore, Applied Industrial Technologies (“Applied,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a leading value-added distributor and technical solutions provider of industrial motion, fluid power, flow control, automation technologies, and related maintenance supplies. Our leading brands, specialized services, and comprehensive knowledge serve MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Operations) and OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) end users in virtually all industrial markets through our multi-channel capabilities that provide choice, convenience, and expertise. We have a long tradition of growth dating back to 1923, the year our business was founded in Cleveland, Ohio. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, business was conducted in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Costa Rica from 593 facilities.

The following is Management's Discussion and Analysis of significant factors which affected our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of consolidated income, consolidated comprehensive income and consolidated cash flows. When reviewing the discussion and analysis set forth below, please note that the SKUs (Stock Keeping Units) we sell in any given period may not necessarily be sold in the comparable period of the prior year, resulting in the inability to quantify certain commonly used comparative metrics analyzing sales, such as changes in product mix and volume.

Overview

Consolidated sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 increased $3.8 million or 0.3% compared to the prior year quarter, with acquisitions increasing sales by $22.0 million or 2.0% and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $3.5 million reducing sales by 0.3%. Operating margin was 10.3% of sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 11.0% of sales for the same quarter in the prior year. Net income of $92.1 million decreased 1.9% compared to the prior year quarter.

Applied monitors several economic indices that have been key indicators for industrial economic activity in the United States. These include the Industrial Production (IP) and Manufacturing Capacity Utilization (MCU) indices published by the Federal Reserve Board and the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) published by the Institute for Supply Management (ISM). Historically, our performance correlates well with the MCU, which measures productivity and calculates a ratio of actual manufacturing output versus potential full capacity output. When manufacturing plants are running at a high rate of capacity, they tend to wear out machinery and require replacement parts.

The MCU (total industry) and IP indices declined slightly since June 2024. The ISM PMI registered 47.2 in September, down from the June 2024 reading of 48.5. The indices for the months during the current quarter, along with the indices for the prior fiscal year end, were as follows:


	Index Reading
Month	MCU	PMI	IP
September 2024	77.5	47.2	99.1
August 2024	77.8	47.2	99.5
July 2024	77.6	46.8	99.0
June 2024	78.2	48.5	99.5

The number of Company employees was 6,549 at September 30, 2024, 6,562 at June 30, 2024, and 6,359 at September 30, 2023. The number of operating facilities totaled 593 at September 30, 2024, 590 at June 30, 2024 and 589 at September 30, 2023.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, sales increased $3.8 million or 0.3% compared to the prior year quarter, with sales from acquisitions adding $22.0 million or 2.0% and unfavorable foreign currency translation accounting for a decrease of $3.5 million or 0.3%. There were 64 selling days in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and 63 selling days in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired and foreign currency translation, sales were down $14.7 million or 1.4% during the quarter, driven by a decrease of 3.0% primarily due to lower operating activity in the Engineered Solutions segment although demand improved during the quarter, offset by an increase of 1.6% due to one additional sales day.

The following table shows changes in sales by reportable segment (amounts in millions).


Sales by Reportable Segment	Three Months Ended September 30,				Sales Increase		Amount of change due to
	Three Months Ended September 30,								Foreign Currency		Organic Change
	2024		2023				Acquisitions		Foreign Currency		Organic Change
Service Center Based Distribution	$	749.7	$	746.5	$	3.2	$	5.5	$	(3.5)	$	1.2

Total	$	1,098.9	$	1,095.1	$	3.8	$	22.0	$	(3.5)	$	(14.7)

Sales from our Service Center Based Distribution segment, which operates primarily in MRO markets, increased $3.2 million or 0.4%. Acquisitions within this segment increased sales by $5.5 million or 0.7%. Unfavorable foreign currency translation reduced sales by $3.5 million or 0.5%. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired and foreign currency translation, sales increased $1.2 million or 0.2%, driven by an increase of 1.6% due to one additional sales day, offset by a decrease of 1.4% primarily driven by softer MRO spending and capital maintenance projects early in the quarter.

Sales from our Engineered Solutions segment increased $0.6 million or 0.2%. Acquisitions within this segment increased sales by $16.5 million or 4.7%. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired, sales decreased $15.9 million or 4.5%, driven by a decrease of 6.1% due to softer demand across off-highway mobile fluid power OEM customers, and to a lesser extent, softer flow control and automation sales in July and August, offset by an increase of 1.6% due to additional sales volume from one additional sales day.

Sales in the United States were down $2.1 million or 0.2%, as acquisitions added $10.1 million or 1.0%. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired, U.S. sales were down $12.2 million or 1.2%, driven by a 2.8% decrease from operations, offset by an increase of 1.6% due to one additional sales day. Sales in Canada decreased $3.8 million or 5.1%. Unfavorable foreign currency translation decreased Canadian sales by $1.3 million or 1.6%. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, Canadian sales were down $2.5 million or 3.5%, driven by a 5.1% decrease from operations, offset by an increase of 1.6% due to one additional sales day. Sales in other countries increased $9.7 million or 16.0% from the prior year quarter primarily due to acquisitions contributing $11.9 million or 19.7%, offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.2 million or 3.7%.

Our gross profit margin was 29.6% in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 29.7% in the prior period. Gross profit margin contracted year over year primarily due to the favorable impact of vendor rebates in the prior year, offset by 24 basis points favorable impact in the current year quarter due to a $2.6 million decrease in LIFO expense.

The following table shows the changes in selling, distribution and administrative expense (SD&A) (amounts in millions).


	Three Months Ended September 30,				SD&A Increase		Amount of change due to
	Three Months Ended September 30,								Foreign Currency		Organic Change

SD&A	$	211.9	$	204.4	$	7.5	$	6.6	$	(0.7)	$	1.6

SD&A consists of associate compensation, benefits and other expenses associated with selling, purchasing, warehousing, supply chain management and providing marketing and distribution of the Company's products, as well as costs associated with a variety of administrative functions such as human resources, information technology, treasury, accounting, insurance, legal, and facility related expenses. SD&A was 19.3% of sales in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 18.7% in the prior year quarter, an increase of $7.5 million or 3.7% compared to the prior year quarter. SD&A from businesses acquired added $6.6 million or 3.2% of SD&A expenses, including $0.9 million of intangibles amortization related to acquisitions. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had the effect of decreasing SD&A during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 by $0.7 million or 0.3% compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired and the favorable currency translation impact, SD&A increased $1.6 million or 0.8% during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year quarter.

Operating income decreased $7.5 million or 6.2%, and as a percent of sales decreased to 10.3% from 11.0% during the prior year quarter.

Operating income, as a percentage of sales for the Service Center Based Distribution segment decreased to 12.6% in the current year quarter from 13.0% in the prior year quarter. Operating income as a percentage of sales for the Engineered Solutions segment decreased to 13.8% in the current year quarter from 14.2% in the prior year quarter.

The Company had net interest income in the current year quarter of $0.6 million compared to net interest expense of $1.3 million in the prior year quarter due to reduced debt levels and greater interest income from higher cash balances and investment yields.

Other (income) expense, net, which represents certain non-operating items of income and expense, was income of $2.3 million in the current year quarter compared to expense of $0.4 million in the prior year quarter. Current quarter income primarily consists of unrealized gains on investments held by non-qualified deferred compensation trusts of $1.2 million, foreign currency transaction gains of $0.9 million, and other income of $0.2 million. Other expense, net in the prior year quarter consisted

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

primarily of unrealized losses on investments held by non-qualified deferred compensation trusts of $0.6 million, offset by $0.2 million of other income.

The effective income tax rate was 20.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 21.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate over the prior year is primarily due to an increase in compensation-related deductions during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. We expect our full year tax rate for fiscal 2025 to be in the 23.0% to 24.0% range.

As a result of the factors addressed above, net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 decreased $1.8 million or 1.9% compared to the prior year quarter. Diluted net income per share was $2.36 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to $2.39 per share in the prior year quarter, a decrease of 1.3%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of capital is cash flow from operations, supplemented as necessary by bank borrowings or other sources of debt. We had total debt obligations outstanding of $597.3 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $597.4 million at June 30, 2024. Management expects that our existing cash, cash equivalents, funds available under the revolving credit facility, and cash provided from operations will be sufficient to finance normal working capital needs in each of the countries in which we operate, payment of dividends, acquisitions, investments in properties, facilities and equipment, debt service, and the purchase of additional Company common stock. Management also believes that additional long-term debt and line of credit financing could be obtained based on the Company's credit standing and financial strength.

The Company's working capital at September 30, 2024 was $1,331.3 million, compared to $1,268.8 million at June 30, 2024. The current ratio was 3.8 to 1 at September 30, 2024 and 3.5 to 1 at June 30, 2024.

Net Cash Flows

The following table is included to aid in review of Applied's condensed statements of consolidated cash flows (amounts in thousands).


	Three Months Ended September 30,
Net Cash Provided by (Used in):	2024		2023

Increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	77,903	$	16,379

The increase in cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2024 from the prior period is due to changes in working capital for the period of $61.8 million, driven primarily by (amounts in thousands):

	2024		2023
Accounts receivable	$	33,641	$	16,142
Accounts payable	(2,307)		(43,008)

Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased from the prior period primarily due to $10.5 million used for acquisitions in the current year quarter compared to $21.4 million used for acquisitions in the prior year quarter.

Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased from the prior quarter primarily due to $10.0 million used to repurchase 52,000 shares of common stock which were taken into treasury in the current year quarter. No shares were repurchased in the prior year quarter.

Share Repurchases

The Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of shares of the Company's common stock. These purchases may be made in open market and negotiated transactions, from time to time, depending upon market conditions. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company acquired 52,000 shares of the Company's common stock on the open market at an average price per share of $191.92. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not acquire any

Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan

In December 2021, the Company entered into a five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility provides a $900.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $500.0 million. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at either the base rate plus a margin that ranges from 0 to 55 basis points based on net leverage ratio or SOFR plus a margin that ranges from 80 to 155 basis points based on the net leverage ratio. Borrowing capacity under this facility, without exercising the accordion feature, totaled $515.8 million and $515.8 million at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, and are available to fund future acquisitions or other capital and operating requirements. These amounts are net of outstanding letters of credit of $0.2 million at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, to secure certain insurance obligations. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 5.75% and 6.24% as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively.

Additionally, the Company had letters of credit outstanding not associated with the revolving credit agreement, in the amount of $5.3 million and $4.0 million as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, in order to secure certain insurance obligations.

Trade Receivable Securitization Facility

In August 2018, the Company established a trade receivable securitization facility (the “AR Securitization Facility”). The AR Securitization Facility effectively increases the Company’s borrowing capacity by collateralizing a portion of the amount of the U.S. operations’ trade accounts receivable. The Company uses the proceeds from the AR Securitization Facility as an alternative to other forms of debt, effectively reducing borrowing costs. The AR Securitization Facility's maximum borrowing capacity is $250.0 million, fees on amounts borrowed are 0.90% per year, and the term goes to August 4, 2026. Borrowing capacity is further subject to changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels or certain characteristics of the accounts receivable portfolio and, therefore, at certain times, we may not be able to fully access the $250.0 million of borrowing capacity available under the AR Securitization Facility. Borrowings under the AR Securitization Facility carry variable interest rates tied to SOFR. The interest rate on the AR Securitization Facility as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024 was 5.85% and 6.35%, respectively.

Unsecured Shelf Facility

At September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had borrowings outstanding under its unsecured shelf facility agreement with Prudential Investment Management of $25.0 million. Fees on this facility range from 0.25% to 1.25% per year based on the Company's leverage ratio at each quarter end. The “Series E” notes have a principal amount of $25.0 million, carry a fixed interest rate of 3.08%, and are due on October 30, 2024.

Other Long-Term Borrowing

In 2014, the Company assumed $2.4 million of debt as a part of the headquarters facility acquisition. The 1.50% fixed interest rate note is held by the State of Ohio Development Services Agency, and matures in November 2024.

The Company entered into an interest rate swap which mitigates variability in forecasted interest payments on $384.0 million of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured variable rate debt. For more information, see note 6, Derivatives, to the

consolidated financial statements, included in Item 1 under the caption “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.”

The credit facility and the unsecured shelf facility contain restrictive covenants regarding liquidity, net worth, financial ratios, and other covenants. At September 30, 2024, the most restrictive of these covenants required that the Company have net indebtedness less than 3.75 times consolidated income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined). At September 30, 2024, the Company's net indebtedness was less than 0.2 times consolidated income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined). The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2024.

Accounts Receivable Analysis

The following table is included to aid in analysis of accounts receivable and the associated provision for losses on accounts receivable (amounts in thousands):


	September 30,			June 30,
	2024			2024
Accounts receivable, gross	$	704,683		$	737,941
Less: allowance for doubtful accounts	13,171			13,063
Accounts receivable, net	$	691,512		$	724,878
Allowance for doubtful accounts, % of gross receivables	1.9		%	1.8		%

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2024			2023
Provision for losses on accounts receivable	$	1,056		$	867
Provision as a % of net sales	0.10		%	0.08		%

Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value and consist of trade receivables from customers. Management monitors accounts receivable by reviewing Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and the aging of receivables for each of the Company's locations.

On a consolidated basis, DSO was 56.6 at September 30, 2024 compared to 56.2 at June 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, 1.6% of our accounts receivable balances are more than 90 days past due, compared to 1.5% at June 30, 2024. On an overall basis, our provision for losses from uncollected receivables represents 0.10% of our sales in the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 0.08% of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase primarily relates to recoveries recorded in the prior year primarily in the U.S. operations of the Service Center Based Distribution segment. Historically, this percentage is around 0.10% to 0.15%. Management believes the overall receivables aging and provision for losses on uncollected receivables are at reasonable levels.

Inventory Analysis

Inventories are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for U.S. inventories and the average cost method for foreign inventories. Management uses an inventory turnover ratio to monitor and evaluate inventory. Management calculates this ratio on an annual as well as a quarterly basis, and believes that using average costs to determine the inventory turnover ratio instead of LIFO costs provides a more useful analysis. The annualized inventory turnover based on average costs was 4.3 for both the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024.

Cautionary Statement Under Private Securities Litigation Reform Act

Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains statements that are forward-looking based on management’s current expectations about the future. Forward-looking statements are often identified by qualifiers, such as “guidance”, “expect”, “believe”, “plan”, “intend”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “may”, "optimistic" and derivative or similar words or expressions. Similarly, descriptions of objectives, strategies, plans, or goals are also forward-looking statements. These statements may discuss, among other things, expected growth, future sales, future cash flows, future capital expenditures, future performance, and the anticipation and expectations of the Company and its management as to future occurrences and trends. The Company intends that the forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors established in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and by the Securities and Exchange Commission in its rules, regulations and releases.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on current expectations regarding important risk factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements, and the making of those statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results expressed in the statements will be achieved. In addition, the Company assumes no obligation publicly to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information or events, or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Important risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following: risks relating to the operations levels of our customers and the economic factors that affect them; the impact that widespread illness, health epidemics, or general health concerns could have; inflationary or deflationary trends in the cost of products, energy, labor and other operating costs, and changes in the prices for products and services relative to the cost of providing them; reduction in supplier inventory purchase incentives; loss of key supplier authorizations, lack of product availability (such as due to supply chain strains), changes in supplier distribution programs, inability of suppliers to perform, and transportation disruptions; changes in customer preferences for products and services of the nature and brands sold by us; changes in customer procurement policies and practices; competitive pressures; our reliance on information systems and risks relating to their proper functioning, the security of those systems, and the data stored in or transmitted through them; the impact of economic conditions on the collectability of trade receivables; reduced demand for our products in targeted markets due to reasons including consolidation in customer industries; our ability to retain and attract qualified sales and customer service personnel and other skilled executives, managers and professionals; our ability to identify and complete acquisitions, integrate them effectively, and realize their anticipated benefits; the variability, timing and nature of new business opportunities including acquisitions, alliances, customer relationships, and supplier authorizations; the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities in connection with acquisitions; our ability to access capital markets as needed on reasonable terms; disruption of operations at our headquarters or distribution centers; risks and uncertainties associated with our foreign operations, including volatile economic conditions, political instability, cultural and legal differences, and currency exchange fluctuations; the potential for goodwill and intangible asset impairment; changes in accounting policies and practices; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; organizational changes within the Company; risks related to legal proceedings to which we are a party; potentially adverse government regulation, legislation, or policies, both enacted and under consideration, including with respect to federal tax policy, international trade, data privacy and security, and government contracting; and the occurrence of extraordinary events (including prolonged labor disputes, power outages, telecommunication outages, terrorist acts, war, public health emergency, earthquakes, extreme weather events, other natural disasters, fires, floods, and accidents). Other factors and unanticipated events could also adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Risks can also change over time. Further, the disclosure of a risk should not be interpreted to imply that the risk has not already materialized.

We discuss certain of these matters and other risk factors more fully throughout this Form 10-Q as well as other of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024.
