NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein have been included. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Jabil Inc. (the “Company”) for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2023. Results for the three months ended November 30, 2023 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending August 31, 2024.
2. Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs
The Company regularly sells designated pools of high credit quality trade accounts receivable, at a discount, under uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs to unaffiliated financial institutions without recourse. As these accounts receivable are sold without recourse, the Company does not retain the associated risks following the transfer of such accounts receivable to the respective financial institutions.
As of November 30, 2023, the Company may elect to sell receivables and the unaffiliated financial institutions may elect to purchase specific accounts receivable at any one time, at a discount, on an ongoing basis up to a: (i) maximum aggregate amount available of $ 2.3 billion under nine trade accounts receivable sale programs, (ii) maximum amount available of 100 million CHF under one trade accounts receivable sale program, and (iii) maximum amount available of 8.1 billion INR under one trade accounts receivable sale program. The trade accounts receivable sale programs either expire on various dates through 2028 or do not have expiration dates and may be terminated upon election of the Company or the unaffiliated financial institutions.
The Company continues servicing the receivables sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under each of the trade accounts receivable sale programs. Servicing fees related to the trade accounts receivable sale programs recognized during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022 were not material. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the Company estimates that the fee it receives to service these receivables approximates the fair market compensation to provide the servicing activities.
In connection with the trade accounts receivable sale programs, the Company recognized the following (in millions):

The senior unsecured credit agreement dated as of January 22, 2020 and amended on February 10, 2023 (the “Credit Facility”) acts as the back-up facility for commercial paper outstanding, if any. The Company has a borrowing capacity of up to $ 3.2 billion under its commercial paper program.
Debt Covenants
Borrowings under the Company’s debt agreements are subject to various covenants that limit the Company’s ability to: incur additional indebtedness, sell assets, effect mergers and certain transactions, and effect certain transactions with subsidiaries and affiliates. In addition, the revolving credit facilities contain debt leverage and interest coverage covenants. The Company is also subject to certain covenants requiring the Company to offer to repurchase the 3.950 %, 3.600 %, 3.000 %, 1.700 %, 4.250 % or 5.450 % Senior Notes upon a change of control. As of November 30, 2023 and August 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.
Fair Value
Refer to Note 16 – “Fair Value Measurements” for the estimated fair values of the Company’s notes payable and long-term debt.
5. Asset-Backed Securitization Program
Certain Jabil entities participating in the global asset-backed securitization program continuously sell designated pools of trade accounts receivable to a special purpose entity, which in turn sells certain of the receivables at a discount to conduits administered by an unaffiliated financial institution on a monthly basis. In addition, a foreign entity participating in the global
7
Table of Contents
asset-backed securitization program sells certain receivables at a discount to conduits administered by an unaffiliated financial institution on a daily basis.
The Company continues servicing the receivables sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee under the global asset-backed securitization program. Servicing fees related to the global asset-backed securitization program recognized during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022 were not material. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the Company estimates that the fee it receives to service these receivables approximates the fair market compensation to provide the servicing activities.
The special purpose entity in the global asset-backed securitization program is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and is included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain unsold receivables covering up to the maximum amount of net cash proceeds available under the domestic, or U.S., portion of the global asset-backed securitization program are pledged as collateral to the unaffiliated financial institution as of November 30, 2023.
The global asset-backed securitization program expires on November 25, 2024 and the maximum amount of net cash proceeds available at any one time is $ 600 million. As of November 30, 2023, the Company had no available liquidity under its global asset-backed securitization program.

(1) Service cost is recognized in cost of revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(2) Components are recognized in other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(3) Actuarial gains and losses are amortized using a corridor approach. The gain/loss corridor is equal to 10 percent of the greater of the projected benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. Gains and losses in excess of the corridor are generally amortized over the average future working lifetime of the plan participants.
8. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions. These changes in market conditions may adversely impact the Company’s financial performance and are referred to as market risks. The Company, where deemed appropriate, uses derivatives as risk management tools to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. The primary market risks managed by the Company through the use of derivative instruments are foreign currency risk and interest rate risk.
Foreign Currency Risk Management
Forward contracts are put in place to manage the foreign currency risk associated with the anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses. A hedging relationship existed with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $ 153 million and $ 491 million as of November 30, 2023 and August 31, 2023, respectively. The related forward foreign exchange contracts have been designated as hedging instruments and are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The forward foreign exchange contract transactions will effectively lock in the value of anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses against foreign currency fluctuations. The anticipated foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses being hedged are expected to occur between December 1, 2023 and August 31, 2024.
In addition to derivatives that are designated as hedging instruments and qualify for hedge accounting, the Company also enters into forward contracts to economically hedge transactional exposure associated with commitments arising from trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, fixed purchase obligations and intercompany transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective operating entity. The aggregate notional amount of these outstanding contracts as of November 30, 2023 and August 31, 2023, was $ 4.3 billion and $ 4.0 billion, respectively.
The gains and losses on cash flow hedges recognized in earnings due to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing were not material for all periods presented and are included as components of net revenue, cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expense, which are the same line items in which the hedged items are recorded.

The time-based restricted stock units generally vest on a graded vesting schedule over three years . The performance-based restricted stock units generally vest on a cliff vesting schedule over three years and up to a maximum of 150 %, depending on the specified performance condition and the level of achievement obtained. The performance-based restricted stock units have a vesting condition that is based upon the Company’s cumulative adjusted core earnings per share during the performance period. The market-based restricted stock units generally vest on a cliff vesting schedule over three years and up to a maximum of 200 %, depending on the specified performance condition and the level of achievement obtained. The market-based restricted stock units have a vesting condition that is tied to the Company’s total shareholder return based on the Company’s stock performance in relation to the companies in the Standard and Poor’s (S&P) Super Composite Technology Hardware and Equipment Index excluding the Company. During the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company awarded approximately 0.4 million and 0.9 million time-based restricted stock units, respectively, 0.1 million and 0.2 million performance-based restricted stock units, respectively, and 0.1 million and 0.2 million market-based restricted stock units, respectively.

11. Concentration of Risk and Segment Data
Concentration of Risk
Sales of the Company’s products are concentrated among specific customers. During the three months ended November 30, 2023, the Company’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 44 % of its net revenue and 76 customers accounted for approximately 90 % of its net revenue.

Table of Contents
The Company procures components from a broad group of suppliers. Some of the products manufactured by the Company require one or more components that are available from only a single source.
Segment Data
Net revenue for the operating segments is attributed to the segment in which the service is performed. An operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net revenue less cost of revenue, segment selling, general and administrative expenses, segment research and development expenses and an allocation of corporate manufacturing expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Certain items are excluded from the calculation of segment income. Transactions between operating segments are generally recorded at amounts that approximate those at which we would transact with third parties.

Except for asset write-off costs, all restructuring, severance and related charges are cash costs.
2024 Restructuring Plan
On September 26, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan to (i) realign the Company’s cost base for stranded costs associated with the Company’s sale and realignment of its mobility business and (ii) optimize the Company’s global footprint. This action includes headcount reductions across our Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) cost base and capacity realignment (the “2024 Restructuring Plan”). The 2024 Restructuring Plan reflects the Company’s intention only and restructuring decisions, and the timing of such decisions, at certain locations, are still subject to consultation with the Company’s employees and their representatives.
The Company currently expects to recognize approximately $ 300 million in pre-tax restructuring and other related costs over the course of the Company’s 2024 fiscal year. This information will be subject to the finalization of timetables for the transition of functions, consultation with employees and their representatives as well as the statutory severance requirements of the jurisdictions impacted, and the amount and timing of the actual charges may vary due to a variety of factors. The Company’s estimates for the charges discussed above exclude any potential income tax effects.

The U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the Company's effective income tax rate are as follows:

Table of Contents
The effective income tax rate differed for the three months ended November 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended November 30, 2022, primarily due to: (i) a change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, driven in part by restructuring charges, (ii) a $ 19 million income tax benefit for the reversal of a non-U.S. unrecognized tax benefit due to audit closure for the three months ended November 30, 2023, and (iii) an $ 11 million income tax benefit for the reversal of a portion of the U.S. valuation allowance related to an acquisition for the three months ended November 30, 2023.
The effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, primarily due to: (i) the jurisdictional mix of earnings, (ii) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances, (iii) tax incentives granted to sites in China, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam, (iv) a $ 19 million income tax benefit associated with the reversal of a non-U.S. unrecognized tax benefit due to audit closure for the three months ended November 30, 2023, and (v) an $ 11 million income tax benefit for the reversal of a portion of the U.S. valuation allowance related to an acquisition for the three months ended November 30, 2023 .
14. Earnings Per Share and Dividends
Earnings Per Share
The Company calculates its basic earnings per share by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted earnings per share is calculated in a similar manner, but includes the effect of dilutive securities. The difference between the weighted average number of basic shares outstanding and the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding is primarily due to dilutive unvested restricted stock units.
Potential shares of common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share when their effect would be antidilutive. Performance-based restricted stock units are considered dilutive when the related performance criteria have been met assuming the end of the reporting period represents the end of the performance period. All potential shares of common stock are antidilutive in periods of net loss. Potential shares of common stock not included in the computation of earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive or because the performance criterion was not met were as follows (in thousands):

15. Business Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
On November 1, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of ProcureAbility Inc. (“ProcureAbility”) for approximately $ 60 million in cash. ProcureAbility is a procurement services provider specializing in technology-enabled advisory, managed services, digital, staffing, and recruiting solutions.
The acquisition of ProcureAbility assets was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired of $ 86 million, including $ 40 million in intangible assets and $ 38 million in goodwill, and liabilities assumed of $ 25 million were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The allocation of the purchase price is considered preliminary pending final valuation for the Company. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities was recorded to goodwill and was fully allocated to the DMS segment. The majority of the goodwill is currently not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations were

included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial results beginning on November 1, 2023. Pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisition of ProcureAbility is not deemed to be significant.
Divestitures
The Company announced on September 26, 2023 that, through its indirect subsidiary, Jabil Circuit (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private limited company (“Singapore Seller”), it agreed to sell to an affiliate of BYD Electronic (International) Co. Ltd., a Hong Kong limited liability company (“Purchaser” or “BYDE”), its product manufacturing business in Chengdu, including its supporting component manufacturing in Wuxi (the “Business”) for cash consideration of approximately $ 2.2 billion, subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments. On December 29, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the sale.
As of November 30, 2023, and August 31, 2023, the assets and liabilities of the Business were classified as held for sale and the carrying value is less than the estimated fair value less cost to sell and, thus, no adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group is necessary. For the three months ended November 30, 2023, depreciation and amortization expense for long-lived assets are not recorded while these assets are classified as held for sale. The divestiture did not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations and the Company continued to report the operating results for the Business in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the DMS segment until the Closing Date.
Following is a summary of the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities that were classified as held for sale (in millions):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowings under credit facilities and under loans approximates fair value as interest rates on these instruments approximates current market rates.
Notes payable and long-term debt is carried at amortized cost; however, the Company estimates the fair values of notes payable and long-term debt for disclosure purposes.
