Overview

CDW Corporation (“Parent”) is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to business, government, education, and healthcare customers in the United States (“US”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), and Canada. Our broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience, and security.

Effective January 1, 2026, we realigned our customer-facing sales organization to better meet the evolving needs of our customer end markets. As a result, we have the following three reportable segments: Commercial, Government, and Education. Our Commercial reportable segment primarily serves corporate, financial services, and healthcare customers in the US, each of which represents a unique customer channel. Customers previously included in the Small Business segment are included across the customer channels within our Commercial reportable segment. Our Government reportable segment primarily serves federal, state, and local agencies in the US, along with certain private sector business customers that primarily support or interact with government agencies. The Education reportable segment primarily serves primary, secondary, and higher education institutions in the US. CDW UK and CDW Canada remain unchanged in this reporting structure, in an all other category (“Other”).

We are vendor, technology, and consumption model unbiased, with a solutions portfolio including more than 100,000 products and services from more than 1,000 leading and emerging brands. Our solutions are delivered in physical, virtual, and cloud-based environments through approximately 10,300 customer-facing coworkers, including sellers, highly skilled specialists, and engineers. We are a leading sales channel partner for many original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers, and cloud providers (collectively, our “vendor partners”), and wholesale distributors, whose products we sell or include in the solutions we offer. We provide our vendor partners with a cost-effective way to reach customers and deliver a consistent brand experience through our established end-market coverage, technical expertise, and extensive customer access.

We may sell all or only select products that our vendor partners offer. Each vendor partner agreement provides for specific terms and conditions, which may include one or more of the following: product return privileges, price protection policies, purchase discounts, and vendor incentive programs, such as purchase or sales rebates and cooperative advertising reimbursements. We also resell software for major software publishers. Our agreements with software publishers allow the end-user customer to acquire software or licensed products and services. In addition to helping our customers determine the best software solutions for their needs, we help them manage their software agreements, including warranties and renewals. A significant portion of our advertising and marketing expenses are reimbursed through cooperative advertising programs with our vendor partners. These programs are at the discretion of our vendor partners and are typically tied to sales or other commitments to be met by us within a specified period of time.

Trends and Key Factors Affecting our Financial Performance

We believe the following key factors may have a meaningful impact on our business performance, influencing our ability to generate sales and achieve our targeted financial and operating results:

*•*General economic conditions are a key factor affecting our results as they can impact our customers’ willingness and ability to spend on IT. The prevailing economic conditions remain complex, largely due to ongoing uncertainty surrounding evolving global trade policies and geopolitical conditions, among other drivers. In addition, there has been increased demand for memory-intensive products driven by the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (“AI”) applications and related data center investments. Collectively, these dynamics may continue to influence supply chains and drive pricing pressures, while the broader economic conditions may affect interest rates. The uncertainty in the current economic environment has impacted and may continue to impact the timing of our customers’ investments in technology.

• The evolution of technology and AI adoption trends continue to drive customer purchasing decisions in the market. Current trends are focused on modernizing and optimizing technology environments to improve operational efficiency, agility, and cybersecurity while enabling organizations to leverage AI at scale. These trends are driving investment in AI-ready infrastructure, cloud and data modernization, cybersecurity solutions, and workflow automation technologies. As AI capabilities continue to evolve, organizations are increasingly focused on achieving practical, secure, and measurable business outcomes while managing complexity and risk. We have orchestrated outcome-driven solutions that bring together AI, security, software, and services to help customers achieve their objectives.

• Changes and uncertainty related to spending policies, budget priorities, timing, and funding levels are key factors influencing the purchasing levels of government, healthcare, and education customers. As the duration and ongoing impact of current economic conditions remain uncertain, including any US government shutdowns, current and future budget priorities and funding levels for government, healthcare, and education customers may be adversely affected, leading to lower IT spend.

Key Business Metrics

We monitor a number of financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis in order to track the progress of our business and make adjustments as necessary. Financial measures are presented both in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and non-GAAP, which excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include Gross profit, Gross profit margin, Operating income, Operating income margin, Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Net income, Non-GAAP net income, Net income per diluted share, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Average daily sales, Net debt, Cash conversion cycle, Net cash provided by operating activities, and Adjusted free cash flow. These measures and ratios are closely monitored by management, so that actions can be taken, as necessary, in order to achieve financial objectives.

For the definitions, discussion of management’s use of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see “Results of Operations -

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
