BUSINESS TRENDS

COVID-19 pandemic update :

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic continues to have widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global

society, economies, financial markets, and business practices.

Federal, state and local governments and public health authorities have required and may in the future require measures to contain the virus, including rules related to vaccine status,

social distancing, travel restrictions, border closures, limitations on public gatherings, work from home, safety-related modifications to workplaces, supply chain logistical changes, and closure of non-essential businesses.

As COVID-19 impacts continue across the country and globe, we have been adjusting our business activities for the safety of our employees and to best serve our customers in this

rapidly evolving environment.

Most of our offices are open, with required health and safety protocols in place.

However, we have implemented a flexible work from home strategy applicable to all offices and operational continuity plans to provide

sufficient resources to continue supporting our customers, and we will continue to evaluate returning to the office on an ongoing basis.

Our configuration centers have remained open with our employees working in them following required health and

safety protocols.

In addition, we also have a procedure to review our employees’ business-related travel in accordance with health regulations and guidance.

Our managed service teams are distributed across the US with the ability to leverage

technology to provide coverage while working from home.

While we and many of our customers and vendor partners have restricted in-person meetings, we are leveraging video and other collaborative tools to continue to be responsive.

Our account relationship teams are actively engaging with our customers to ensure they have the support needed in adjusting to changes in the business environment and government

Also, we are working closely with our vendor partners to address varying impacts on their supply chains, which have been impacted by materials shortages.

We continue to execute against and adjust our business continuity plans to maximize our ability to support our employees and customers in concert with our vendor partners.

internal resource page to support specific customer inquiries from security to collaboration to financing options.

We remain committed to driving positive business outcomes.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business going forward will depend on numerous evolving factors we cannot reliably predict, including the duration and

scope of the pandemic including the impact of variants;

governmental, business, and individuals’ actions in response to the pandemic;

the efficacy of vaccines and boosters;

the willingness of people to be inoculated;

potential vaccine-related

court rulings;

and the impact on economic activity including the possibility of recession, inflation, or financial market instability.

These factors may adversely impact business and government spending on technology as well as our

customers’ ability to pay for our products and services on an ongoing basis.

This uncertainty also affects management’s accounting estimates and assumptions, which could result in greater variability in a variety of areas that depend on these

estimates and assumptions.

Refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our 2021 Annual Report, as supplemented in subsequently filed reports, and in Part II, Item 1A.

“ Risk Factors ” in this Report .

Supply constraints :

We believe the following key factors are impacting our business performance and our ability to achieve business results:

General economic concerns including inflation, rising interest rates, staffing shortages, COVID variants, and global unrest may impact our customers’ willingness to spend on technology and services.

A worldwide shortage of certain IT products is resulting from, among other things, shortages in semiconductors and other product components.

Like others, we

are experiencing ongoing supply constraints that have affected, and could continue to further affect, lead times for delivery of products, the costs of products, vendor return and cancellation policies, and our ability to meet customer demands.

Like others, we are experiencing ongoing supply constraints that

have affected, and could continue to further affect, lead times for delivery of products, the costs of products, vendor return and cancellation policies, and our ability to meet customer demands.

We continue to work closely with our

suppliers to further mitigate disruptions outside our control.

Despite these actions, we believe extended lead times will likely persist for at least the next few quarters.

For the periods presented herein, inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations.

We have experienced increases in prices from our suppliers as well as

rising wages and interest rates.

We are experiencing increases in prices from our suppliers as well as rising wages and interest rates.

We generally have been able to pass price increases to our customers.

Our labor costs related to services we perform will take longer to pass to customers that have services engagements where prices may be set.

Our financing quotes are generally indexed to market changes to enable us to change rates from time of quote to funding.

Financing transactions funded with our cash flows, not debt, are subject to interest rate risk.

If the market interest

rate exceeds our internal rate of return, we may not fund the transaction to obtain the proceeds and lock in our profit on the transaction.

There can be no assurances, however, that inflation would not have a material impact on our sales,

gross profit or operating costs in the future.

There can be no assurances that inflation will not have a material impact on our sales, gross profit, or operating costs in the future.

Customers’ top focus areas include security, cloud solutions, hybrid work environments (work from home and return to office) as well as digital transformation and modernization.

We have developed advisory

services, solutions, and professional and managed services to meet these priorities and help our customers attain their desired state.

Modernizing legacy applications, data modernization, reducing operational complexity, securing workloads, the cost and performance of IT operations, and agility are changing the way companies are purchasing

and consuming technology.

These are fueling deployments of solutions on cloud, managed services and hybrid platforms and licensing models.

KEY BUSINESS METRICS

Our management monitors several financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis to track the progress of our business.

We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios

include net sales, gross margin, operating income margin, net earnings, net earnings per common share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted gross billings, and Non-GAAP Net earnings per share.

We use a variety of operating and other

information to evaluate the operating performance of our business, develop financial forecasts, make strategic decisions, and prepare and approve annual budgets.

These key indicators include financial information that is prepared in accordance with US GAAP and presented in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, as well as Non-GAAP

performance measurement tools.

Generally, a Non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial position that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly

comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP.

We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include net sales, gross margin, operating

income margin, net earnings, net earnings per common share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted gross billings, and Non-GAAP Net earnings per share.

Our operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2021, increased $12.1 million, or 17.6%, to $81.0 million, as compared to $68.9 million for the prior year period.

This increase is primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses including higher travel and entertainment costs as travel restrictions from COVID-19 have started to ease, higher software license and maintenance

costs, higher property taxes, and an increase in salaries and benefits driven by an increase in variable compensation and fringe benefits.

These increases are partially offset by a decrease in our provision for credit losses.

As of December 31,

2021, we had 1,554 employees, a decrease of 32 from 1,586 as of December 31, 2020, which included 102 employees from the SMP acquisition on December 31, 2020.

The continued implementation of our business strategy will require a significant investment in both resources and managerial focus.

In addition, we may selectively acquire other

companies that have attractive customer relationships and skilled sales and/or engineering forces.

In addition, we may selectively acquire other companies that have attractive

customer relationships and skilled sales and/or engineering forces.

We may also open offices in new geographic areas, which may require a significant investment of cash.

We may also acquire technology companies to

expand and enhance the platform of bundled solutions to provide additional functionality and value-added services.

We may continue to use our internally generated funds to finance investments in leased assets or investments in notes receivables due

from our customers.

These actions may result in increased working capital needs as the business expands.

As a result, we may require additional financing to fund our strategy, implementation, potential future acquisitions, and working capital

needs, which may include additional debt and equity financing.

POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS

Our future quarterly operating results and the market price of our common stock may fluctuate.

In the event our revenues or earnings for any quarter are less than

the level expected by securities analysts or the market in general, such shortfall could have an immediate and significant adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.

Any such adverse impact could be greater if any such shortfall occurs

near the time of any material decrease in any widely followed stock index or in the market price of the stock of one or more public equipment leasing and financing companies, IT resellers, software competitors, or our major customers or vendors.

Our quarterly results of operations are susceptible to fluctuations for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to the worldwide impacts from

COVID-19, currency fluctuations, reduction in IT spending, shortages of product from our vendors due to material shortages, any reduction of expected residual values related to the equipment under our leases, the timing and mix of specific

transactions, the reduction of manufacturer incentive programs, and other factors.

Quarterly operating results could also fluctuate as a result of our sale of equipment in our lease portfolio to a lessee or third-party at the expiration of a

lease term or prior to such expiration, and the transfer of financial assets.

Sales of equipment and transfers of financial assets may have the effect of increasing revenues and net income during the quarter in which the sale occurs and reducing

revenues and net income otherwise expected in subsequent quarters.
