Overview
We are a Fortune 100 corporation and a leading global distributor and solutions aggregator for the information technology ("IT") ecosystem. We serve a critical role, bringing products from the world's leading and emerging technology vendors to market, and helping our customers create solutions best suited to maximize business outcomes for their end-user customers.

Table of contents
Digital transformation and the migration to cloud computing is reshaping our industry, enabling businesses and consumers to evaluate, procure, acquire, and consume technology products and services in a variety of ways. Hybrid models of IT consumption, supporting both physical and virtual delivery methods are emerging, as hardware and software-based solutions become increasingly combined. As a result, customers are seeking greater integration of products, services and solutions that tie technologies together. Therefore, we believe it is important to provide a broad, end-to-end portfolio, with deep capabilities across the computing continuum to help customers manage the increasingly complex IT ecosystem and deliver the solutions and business outcomes the market desires. Our vision for the future is to be the vital solutions aggregator and orchestrator that connects the IT ecosystem.
Our global strategy is to deliver higher value by focusing on the following strategic priorities:
• Invest in strategic technologies such as hybrid cloud, security, data analytics, artificial intelligence ("AI"), hyperscale infrastructure and services.
• Strengthen our end-to-end portfolio of products, services and solutions, including technology-as-a-service and recurring revenue models.
• Transform our company digitally through greater automation and advanced analytics, which we believe will enhance the customer experience, broaden our customer base, increase sales and augment our presence in strategic technologies.
• Expand our global footprint and enhance the operational excellence of our businesses around the world.
We offer a comprehensive catalog of technology products from original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”), such as personal computing devices, mobile phones and accessories, and strategic technologies such as cloud, security, data/analytics, AI and hyperscale infrastructure. This enables us to offer comprehensive solutions to our reseller and retail customers. Our reseller customers include value-added resellers, corporate resellers, government resellers, system integrators, direct marketers, retailers and managed service providers. We combine our core strengths in distribution with demand generation, supply chain management and design and integration solutions to help our customers achieve greater efficiencies in time to market, cost minimization, real-time linkages in the supply chain and aftermarket product support. We also provide comprehensive IT solutions in key vertical markets such as government and healthcare and we provide specialized service offerings that increase efficiencies in the areas of global computing components, logistics services and supply chain management. Additionally, we provide systems design and integration solutions for data center servers and networking solutions built specific to our customers’ workloads and data center environments.
We group the majority of our offerings into two primary solutions portfolios, Endpoint Solutions and Advanced Solutions. Our Endpoint Solutions portfolio primarily includes personal computing devices and peripherals, mobile phones and accessories, printers, peripherals, and supplies. Our Advanced Solutions portfolio primarily includes data center technologies such as hybrid cloud, security, storage, networking, servers, software, converged and hyper-converged infrastructure and hyperscale infrastructure, via our Hyve business.
Our business is characterized by low gross profit as a percentage of revenue, or gross margin, and low operating income as a percentage of revenue, or operating margin. The market for IT products has generally been characterized by declining unit prices and short product life cycles, although unit prices for certain products have increased during certain periods due to factors such as supply chain constraints and inflation. We set our sales price based on the market supply and demand characteristics for each particular product or bundle of products we distribute and services we provide.
We are highly dependent on the end-market demand for IT products, and on our partners’ strategic initiatives and business models. This end-market demand is influenced by many factors including the introduction of new IT products and software by OEM suppliers, replacement cycles for existing IT products, trends toward cloud computing and AI, overall economic growth and general business activity. A difficult and challenging economic environment, including the continued persistence of inflation and elevated interest rates, may also lead to consolidation or decline in the IT industries and increased price-based competition. Our systems design and integration solutions business is highly dependent on the demand for cloud infrastructure, and the number of key customers and suppliers in the market. Our business includes operations in the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific and Japan ("APJ") so we are affected by demand for our products in those regions, as well as the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the United States ("U.S.") dollar.

Acquisitions
On March 22, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) which provided that legacy SYNNEX Corporation would acquire legacy Tech Data Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Tech Data”) through a series of mergers, which would result in Tech Data becoming an indirect subsidiary of TD SYNNEX Corporation (collectively, the "Merger"). On September 1, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of common stock of Tiger Parent (AP) Corporation, the parent corporation of Tech Data, for consideration of $1.6 billion in cash ($1.1 billion in cash after giving effect to a $500.0 million equity contribution by Tiger Parent Holdings, L.P., Tiger Parent (AP) Corporation's sole stockholder and an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, Inc., to Tiger Parent (AP) Corporation prior to the effective time of the Merger) and 44 million shares of common stock of SYNNEX, valued at approximately $5.6 billion.
We continually seek to augment organic growth in our business with strategic acquisitions of businesses and assets that complement and expand our existing capabilities. We also divest businesses that we deem no longer strategic to our ongoing operations. We seek to acquire new OEM relationships, enhance our supply chain and integration capabilities, the services we provide to our customers and OEM suppliers, and expand our geographic footprint.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial information, including:
• Revenue in constant currency, which is revenue adjusted for the translation effect of foreign currencies so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Revenue in constant currency is calculated by translating the revenue for the three and six months ended May 31, 2024 in the billing currency using the comparable prior period currency conversion rate. Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant currency rates will be higher or lower than growth reported at actual exchange rates.
• Non-GAAP gross profit, which is gross profit, adjusted to exclude the portion of purchase accounting adjustments that affected cost of revenue.
• Non-GAAP gross margin, which is non-GAAP gross profit, as defined above, divided by revenue.
• Non-GAAP operating income, which is operating income, adjusted to exclude acquisition, integration and restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and purchase accounting adjustments.

• Non-GAAP operating margin, which is non-GAAP operating income, as defined above, divided by revenue.
• Non-GAAP net income, which is net income, adjusted to exclude acquisition, integration and restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, purchase accounting adjustments and income taxes related to the aforementioned items.
• Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”), which is diluted EPS excluding the per share impact of acquisition, integration and restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, purchase accounting adjustments and income taxes related to the aforementioned items.
Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs, which are expensed as incurred, primarily represent professional services costs for legal, banking, consulting and advisory services, severance and other personnel related costs, share-based compensation expense and debt extinguishment fees that are incurred in connection with acquisition, integration, restructuring and divestiture activities. From time to time, this category may also include transaction-related gains/losses on divestitures/spin-off of businesses, costs related to long-lived assets including impairment charges and accelerated depreciation and amortization expense due to changes in asset useful lives, as well as various other costs associated with the acquisition or divestiture.
Our acquisition activities have resulted in the recognition of finite-lived intangible assets which consist primarily of customer relationships and vendor lists. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are tested for impairment when events indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The amortization of intangible assets is reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Although intangible assets contribute to our revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the sale of our products. Additionally, intangible asset amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of our acquisition activity. Accordingly, we believe excluding the amortization of intangible assets, along with the other non-GAAP adjustments which neither relate to the ordinary course of our business nor reflect our underlying business performance, enhances our and our investors’ ability to compare our past financial performance with our current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. Intangible asset amortization excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure represents the entire amount recorded within our GAAP financial statements, and the revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure. Intangible asset amortization is excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure because the amortization, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised.
Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense arising from the grant of equity awards to employees and non-employee members of our Board of Directors based on the estimated fair value of those awards. Although share-based compensation is an important aspect of the compensation of our employees, the fair value of the share-based awards may bear little resemblance to the actual value realized upon the vesting or future exercise of the related share-based awards and the expense can vary significantly between periods as a result of the timing of grants of new stock-based awards, including grants in connection with acquisitions. Given the variety and timing of awards and the subjective assumptions that are necessary when calculating share-based compensation expense, we believe this additional information allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results from period to period.
Purchase accounting adjustments are primarily related to the impact of recognizing the acquired vendor and customer liabilities from the Merger at fair value. These adjustments benefited our non-GAAP operating income through the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 2023 based on historical settlement patterns with our vendors and in accordance with the timing defined in our policy for releasing vendor and customer liabilities we deem remote to be paid.
We believe that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand our base operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods and for planning and forecasting in future periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in some cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes. As these non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with data presented in accordance with GAAP.

Consolidated Commentary
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, consolidated revenue and revenue in constant currency slightly decreased by $114.2 million and $76.4 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. The decreases are primarily driven by the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue compared to the prior three months ended May 31, 2023 by approximately $550 million, or 4%, partially offset by growth in our Advanced Solutions and Endpoint Solutions portfolios. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is primarily due to the weakening of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar.
During the six months ended May 31, 2024, both consolidated revenue and revenue in constant currency decreased by $1.3 billion, as compared to the prior year period. The decreases are primarily driven by the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue compared to the prior six months ended May 31, 2023 by approximately $1 billion, or 3%, and a decline in our Endpoint Solutions portfolio. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar, partially offset by the weakening of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar.

Americas Commentary
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, both Americas revenue and revenue in constant currency decreased by $141.8 million as compared to the prior year period. The decreases are primarily driven by the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue compared to the three months ended May 31, 2023 by approximately $440 million, or 5%, partially offset by growth in our Advanced Solutions portfolio.
During the six months ended May 31, 2024, Americas revenue and revenue in constant currency decreased by $877.4 million and $888.2 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. The decreases are primarily driven by the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue compared to the six months ended May 31, 2023 by approximately $780 million, or 5%, and a decline in our Endpoint Solutions portfolio in the region.
Europe Commentary
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, Europe revenue and revenue in constant currency decreased by $34.7 million and $33.6 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. The decreases are primarily driven by the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue compared to the three months ended May 31, 2023 by approximately $90 million, or 2%, partially offset by an increase in our Endpoint Solutions portfolio.
During the six months ended May 31, 2024, Europe revenue and revenue in constant currency decreased by $437.9 million and $556.2 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease from the prior year period was primarily driven by the market dynamics of the prior year which resulted in higher revenue from strong demand and backlog conversion in our Advanced Solutions portfolio. A greater percentage of our revenue was presented on a net basis, which negatively impacted our revenue by approximately $200 million, or 2%, compared to the six months ended May 31, 2023. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
APJ Commentary
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, APJ revenue and revenue in constant currency increased by $62.2 million and $98.9 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. During the six months ended May 31, 2024, APJ revenue and revenue in constant currency increased by $50.9 million and $115.3 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. The increases are primarily driven by growth in our Advanced Solutions portfolio in the region, partially offset by a decline in our Endpoint Solutions portfolio. The impact of changes in foreign currencies is primarily due to the weakening of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar.

Our gross profit increased during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in purchase accounting adjustments related to the Merger. Our gross margin increased during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis, which positively impacted our gross margin by approximately 27 and 25 basis points, respectively, and the decrease in purchase accounting adjustments related to the Merger.
During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, non-GAAP gross profit was relatively flat, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in revenue, partially offset by an improvement in gross margin. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, non-GAAP gross margin increased, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the presentation of additional revenue on a net basis.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs such as salaries, commissions, bonuses and temporary personnel costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include cost of warehouses, delivery centers and other non-integration facilities, share-based compensation expense, utility expenses, legal and professional fees, depreciation on certain of our capital equipment, bad debt expense, amortization of our intangible assets, and marketing expenses, offset in part by reimbursements from our OEM suppliers.
During the three months ended May 31, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses slightly decreased, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to lower personnel costs in the quarter, partially offset by higher share-based compensation expense. During the six months ended May 31, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses increased, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher share-based compensation expense. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of revenue, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the decrease in revenue. A greater percentage of our revenue was presented on a net basis which contributed to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the three and six months ended May 31, 2024 by approximately 19 and 18 basis points, respectively.
Acquisition, Integration and Restructuring Costs
Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs are primarily comprised of costs related to the Merger, costs related to the Global Business Optimization 2 Program initiated by Tech Data prior to the Merger (the “GBO 2 Program”) of $3.9 million during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024 and $2.6 million and $6.1 million during the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, respectively, and $1.2 million of costs during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024 related to other acquisitions. We do not expect to incur additional costs under the GBO 2 Program in future periods.

The Merger
We incurred acquisition, integration and restructuring costs related to the completion of the Merger, including professional services costs, personnel and other costs, long-lived assets charges and termination fees, and stock-based compensation expense. Professional services costs are primarily comprised of IT and other consulting services, as well as legal expenses. Personnel and other costs are primarily comprised of costs related to retention and other bonuses, severance and duplicative labor costs. Long-lived assets charges and termination fees include accelerated depreciation and amortization expense of $5.1 million and $5.5 million recorded during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively, and $5.3 million and $11.5 million recorded during the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, respectively, due to changes in asset useful lives in conjunction with the consolidation of certain IT systems, along with $10.4 million and $17.0 million recorded during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively, and $2.3 million and $12.5 million recorded during the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, respectively, for termination fees related to certain IT systems. Stock-based compensation expense primarily relates to costs associated with the conversion of certain Tech Data performance-based equity awards issued prior to the Merger into restricted shares of TD SYNNEX (refer to Note 4 – Share-Based Compensation to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further information) and expenses for certain restricted stock awards issued in conjunction with the Merger.
In July 2023, we offered a voluntary severance program ("VSP") to certain co-workers in the U.S. as part of our cost optimization efforts related to the Merger. We incurred $2.9 million and $10.1 million of costs in connection with the VSP during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively, including $2.0 million and $8.0 million of severance costs and $0.9 million and $2.1 million of duplicative labor costs, respectively.
During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024 and 2023, acquisition and integration expenses related to the Merger were composed of the following:

During the three months ended May 31, 2024, our income tax expense decreased, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a lower effective tax rate, which was partially offset by higher income during the period. The effective tax rate was lower during the three months ended May 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2023, primarily due to the relative mix of earnings and losses within the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate.
During the six months ended May 31, 2024, our income tax expense was flat, compared to the prior year period, as higher income during the period was offset by a lower effective tax rate.

Cash Flows
Our business is working capital intensive. Our working capital needs are primarily to finance accounts receivable and inventory. We rely heavily on term loans, sales of accounts receivable, our securitization program, our revolver programs and net trade credit from vendors for our working capital needs. We have financed our growth and cash needs to date primarily through cash generated from operations and financing activities. As a general rule, when sales volumes are increasing, our net investment in working capital dollars typically increases, which generally results in decreased cash flow generated from operating activities. Conversely, when sales volumes decrease, our net investment in working capital dollars typically decreases, which generally results in increases in cash flows generated from operating activities. We calculate CCC as days of the last fiscal quarter’s revenue outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply on hand in inventory, less days of the last fiscal quarter’s cost of revenue outstanding in accounts payable. Our CCC was 23 days as of both May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023. Our CCC remained flat as compared to November 30, 2023, with offsetting decreases in DSO and DPO as both our accounts receivable and accounts payable balances declined due to the timing of cash receipts and payments. Our CCC was 23 days and 24 days as of May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our DIO due to a decline in our inventory balances, partially offset by an increase in our DSO due to the timing of cash receipts.
To increase our market share and better serve our customers, we may further expand our operations through investments or acquisitions. We expect that any such expansions would require an initial investment in working capital, personnel, facilities and operations. These investments or acquisitions would likely be funded primarily by our existing cash and cash equivalents, additional borrowings, or the issuance of securities.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $270.0 million during the six months ended May 31, 2024, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $604.8 million during the six months ended May 31, 2023. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a larger decrease in inventory during the six months ended May 31, 2023 related to ongoing sell-through of strategic inventory purchases that occurred during fiscal year 2022, partially offset by a larger decrease in accounts payable during the six months ended May 31, 2023 correlated with the decrease in inventory.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023 was $100.8 million and $64.5 million, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to cash paid for the acquisition of a business of $26.2 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended May 31, 2024 was $17.5 million as compared to net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended May 31, 2023 of $247.1 million. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is primarily due to the issuance of the 2034 Senior Notes for $600.0 million, partially offset by an increase in repurchases of common stock under our share repurchase program, which totaled $453.4 million during the six months ended May 31, 2024, compared to $174.8 million during the six months ended May 31, 2023, coupled with $45.4 million of net repayments of short-term borrowings during the six months ended May 31, 2024 compared to $29.4 million of net short-term borrowings during the six months ended May 31, 2023.
We believe our current cash balances, cash flows from operations and credit availability are sufficient to support our operating activities for at least the next twelve months.
Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion as of May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents held by international subsidiaries are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax on repatriation into the U.S.. Repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws. If in the future we repatriate foreign cash back to the U.S., we will report in our Consolidated Financial Statements the impact of state and withholding taxes depending upon the planned timing and manner of such repatriation. Presently, we believe we have sufficient resources, cash flow and liquidity within the U.S. to fund current and expected future working capital, investment and other general corporate funding requirements.
We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flows from operations and our existing sources of liquidity, including available capacity under our borrowing facilities, will be sufficient to enable the repayment of $700.0 million of our Senior Notes due in August 2024 and satisfy our current and planned working capital and investment needs for the next twelve months in all geographies. We also believe that our longer-term working capital, planned capital expenditures, anticipated stock repurchases, dividend payments and other general corporate funding requirements will be satisfied through cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, from our borrowing facilities and future financial market activities.
Credit Facilities and Borrowings
In the U.S., we have an accounts receivable securitization program to provide additional capital for our operations (the "U.S. AR Arrangement"). Under the terms of the U.S. AR Arrangement, we and our subsidiaries that are party to the U.S. AR Arrangement can borrow up to a maximum of $1.5 billion based upon eligible trade accounts receivable. The U.S. AR Arrangement, as amended December 11, 2023 and March 29, 2024, has a maturity date of December 2025. We also have an amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of April 16, 2024 (as amended, the "TD SYNNEX Credit Agreement"), pursuant to which we received commitments for the extension of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility not to exceed an aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion, which revolving credit facility (the "TD SYNNEX Revolving Credit Facility") may, at our request but subject to the lenders' discretion, potentially be increased by up to an aggregate amount of $500.0 million. There were no amounts outstanding under the U.S. AR Arrangement or the TD SYNNEX Revolving Credit Facility at May 31, 2024 or November 30, 2023.
39
Table of contents
The TD SYNNEX Credit Agreement also includes a $1.5 billion term loan facility (the "TD SYNNEX Term Loan") that was fully funded in connection with the Merger. The TD SYNNEX Term Loan has a maturity date of September 2026. As amended, the TD SYNNEX Revolving Credit Facility will mature on April 16, 2029, subject, in the lender's discretion, to two one-year extensions upon our prior notice to the lenders.
On April 19, 2024, we entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the "2024 Term Loan Credit Agreement") which provides for a senior unsecured term loan in the amount of $750.0 million (the "2024 Term Loan"). The proceeds from the 2024 Term Loan were used to repay a portion of the TD SYNNEX Term Loan. The 2024 Term Loan will mature on September 1, 2027.
We have various other committed and uncommitted lines of credit with financial institutions, short-term loans, term loans, credit facilities and book overdraft facilities, totaling approximately $569.6 million in borrowing capacity as of May 31, 2024. Our borrowings on these facilities vary within the period primarily based on changes in our working capital. There was $160.1 million outstanding on these facilities at May 31, 2024, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.93%, and there was $208.7 million outstanding on these facilities at November 30, 2023, at a weighted average interest rate of 7.52%.
Historically, we have renewed our accounts receivable securitization program and our parent company credit facilities on, or prior to, their respective expiration dates. We have no reason to believe that these and other arrangements will not be renewed or replaced as we continue to be in good credit standing with the participating financial institutions. We have had similar borrowing arrangements with various financial institutions throughout our years as a public company.
We had total outstanding borrowings of approximately $4.6 billion and $4.1 billion as of May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively. Our outstanding borrowings include Senior Notes of $3.1 billion and $2.5 billion as of May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively, and term loans described above as the TD SYNNEX Term Loan and 2024 Term Loan of approximately $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion at May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively. For additional information on our borrowings, see Note 10 - Borrowings to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report. With respect to our $700.0 million of 1.250% Senior Notes due August 9, 2024, our current intention is to repay these notes on or before their maturity date primarily using funds received from the issuance of our $600.0 million of 6.10% Senior Notes due April 12, 2034.
Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreements
We have uncommitted accounts receivable purchase agreements under which trade accounts receivable owed by certain customers may be acquired, without recourse, by certain financial institutions. Available capacity under these programs is dependent upon the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold into these programs and the financial institutions’ willingness to purchase such receivables. In addition, certain of these programs also require that we continue to service, administer and collect the sold accounts receivable. At May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, we had a total of $1.2 billion and $864.6 million, respectively, of trade accounts receivable sold to and held by financial institutions under these programs. Discount fees for these programs totaled $16.6 million and $32.6 million in the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively, and $12.0 million and $23.7 million in the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, respectively.
Share Repurchase Program
In January 2023, the Board of Directors authorized a three-year $1.0 billion share repurchase program. In March 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a new $2.0 billion share repurchase program, supplementing the amount remaining under the existing program, pursuant to which we may repurchase our outstanding common stock from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The March 2024 share repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date. We repurchased 2.3 million shares of common stock for $254.2 million and 4.2 million shares for $453.4 million in the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively and 0.7 million shares for $60.0 million and 1.8 million shares for $174.8 million during the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, respectively. As of May 31, 2024, we had $1.9 billion available for future repurchases of our common stock. For additional information on our share repurchase program, see Note 5 - Stockholders' Equity to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
