SYNNEX CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020
( Except per share amounts or as otherwise indicated, currency and share amounts in thousands )
(unaudited)
NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
SYNNEX Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, herein referred to as “SYNNEX” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of a comprehensive range of distribution, systems design and integration solutions for the technology industry, headquartered in Fremont, California and has operations in North and South America, Asia-Pacific and Europe.
On December 1, 2020 , the Company completed the previously announced separation of its customer experience services business (the “Separation”), in a tax-free transaction for federal income tax purposes, which was accomplished by the distribution of one hundred per cent of the outstanding common stock of Concentrix Corporation (“Concentrix”) to SYNNEX stockholders as of the close of business on November 17, 2020 , the record date for the distribution. SYNNEX stockholders received one share of Concentrix common stock for every share of SYNNEX common stock held at the close of business on the record date. The Company distributed 51,602 shares of Concentrix common stock to its stockholders. Concentrix is now an independent public company trading under the symbol “CNXC” on the Nasdaq Stock Market. After the Separation, SYNNEX does not beneficially own any shares of Concentrix’ common stock. Beginning December 1, 2020, the Company no longer consolidates Concentrix within its financial results or reflects the financial results of Concentrix within its continuing results of operations.
The financial results of Concentrix for the three and six months ended May 31, 2020 are presented as income from discontinued operations, net of taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and its assets and liabilities as of November 30, 2020 are presented as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The historical statements of comprehensive income, cash flows and the balances in stockholders' equity have not been revised to reflect the effect of the Separation. For further information on discontinued operations, see Note 3 - Discontinued Operations. Unless noted otherwise, discussion in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements pertain to continuing operations.
In connection with the Separation, the Company and Concentrix entered into a separation and distribution agreement as well as various other agreements that provide a framework for the relationships between the parties going forward, including among others an employee matters agreement, a tax matters agreement, and a commercial agreement, pursuant to which Concentrix will continue to provide certain limited services to SYNNEX following the Separation.
The accompanying interim unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of May 31, 2021 and for the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The amounts as of November 30, 2020 have been derived from the Company’s annual audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2020.
Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year, and the Company makes no representations related thereto. Certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers.
NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2020. Accounting pronouncements adopted during the six months ended May 31, 2021 are discussed below.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates on a regular basis and bases them on historical experience and on various assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and work force participation and created volatility and disruption of financial markets, the impact of which was most acute during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. As of May 31, 2021, due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, many of the estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change in future periods. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(continued)
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020
( Except per share amounts or as otherwise indicated, currency and share amounts in thousands )
(unaudited)
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, receivables from vendors and derivative instruments.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments are transacted and maintained with financial institutions with high credit standing, and their compositions and maturities are regularly monitored by management. Through May 31, 2021, the Company has not experienced any credit losses on such deposits and derivative instruments.
Accounts receivable include amounts due from customers, including related party customers. Receivables from vendors, net, includes amounts due from original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) vendors primarily in the technology industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary, but generally requires no collateral. The Company also maintains allowances for expected credit losses. In estimating the required allowances, the Company takes into consideration the overall quality and aging of its receivable portfolio, the existence of a limited amount of credit insurance and specifically identified customer and vendor risks. The Company also considers risks attributed to COVID-19 in establishing the required allowances. Through May 31, 2021, such losses have been within management’s expectations.
One customer accounted for 25 % and 22 % of the Company’s total revenue during the three and six months ended May 31, 2021, respectively. The same customer accounted for 23 % and 21 % of the Company’s total revenue during the three and six months ended May 31, 2020, respectively. Products purchased from the Company’s largest OEM supplier, HP Inc., accounted for approximately 13 % and 14 % of total revenue during the three and six months ended May 31, 2021, respectively, and approximately 15 % of total revenue during both the three and six months ended May 31, 2020.
As of May 31, 2021 and November 30, 2020, one customer comprised 20 % and 15 %, respectively, of the consolidated accounts receivable balance.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is computed based on the weighted-average method. Inventories are comprised of finished goods and work-in-process. Finished goods include products purchased for resale, system components purchased for both resale and for use in the Company’s projects and integration-based completed systems. Work-in-process inventories are not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Segments
Operating segments are based on components of the Company that engage in business activities that earn revenues and incur expenses (a) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resource allocation and performance and (b) for which discrete financial information is available.
The Company had two reportable segments: Technology Solutions and Concentrix. After giving effect to the Separation of the Concentrix segment, the Company now operates a single reportable segment, which represents an aggregation of four geographic operating segments of United States, Canada, Japan and Latin America. The Company distributes peripherals, IT systems, including data center servers, system components, software, networking, communications and security equipment, consumer electronics and complementary products to a variety of customers, including value-added resellers, system integrators and retailers. The Company also designs and integrates data center equipment built specific to the customers' data center environment.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of various IT products.
The Company recognizes revenues from the sale of IT hardware and software as control is transferred to customers, which is at the point in time when the product is shipped or delivered. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when it has written approval, the contract is committed, the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified, the contract has commercial substance and consideration is probable of collection. Binding purchase orders from customers together with agreement to the Company's terms and conditions of sale by way of an executed agreement or other signed documents are considered to be the contract with a customer. Products sold by the Company are delivered via shipment from the Company’s facilities, drop-shipment directly from the vendor, or by electronic delivery of software products. In situations where arrangements include customer acceptance provisions, revenue is recognized when the Company can objectively verify the products comply with specifications underlying acceptance and the customer has control of the products. Revenue is presented net of taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities. The Company generally invoices a customer upon shipment, or in accordance with specific contractual provisions. Payments are due as per contract terms and do not contain a significant financing component. Service revenues represents less than 10 % of the total revenue for the periods presented.

For the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020
( Except per share amounts or as otherwise indicated, currency and share amounts in thousands )
(unaudited)
Provisions for sales returns and allowances are estimated based on historical data and are recorded concurrently with the recognition of revenue. A liability is recorded at the time of sale for estimated product returns based upon historical experience and an asset is recognized for the amount expected to be recorded in inventory upon product return. These provisions are reviewed and adjusted periodically by the Company. Revenue is reduced for early payment discounts and volume incentive rebates offered to customers, which are considered variable consideration, at the time of sale based on an evaluation of the contract terms and historical experience.
The Company recognizes revenue on a net basis on certain contracts, where the Company’s performance obligation is to arrange for the products or services to be provided by another party or the rendering of logistics services for the delivery of inventory for which the Company does not assume the risks and rewards of ownership, by recognizing the margins earned in revenue with no associated cost of revenue. Such arrangements include supplier service contracts, post-contract software support services and extended warranty contracts.
The Company considers shipping and handling activities as costs to fulfill the sale of products. Shipping revenue is included in revenue when control of the product is transferred to the customer, and the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenue.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The amendment requires the Company to disclose the weighted-average interest crediting rates used in cash balance pension plans. It also requires the Company to disclose the reasons for significant changes in the benefit obligation or plan assets including significant gains and losses affecting the benefit obligation for the period. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance to improve the effectiveness of fair value measurement disclosures by removing or modifying certain disclosure requirements and adding other requirements. Certain amendments should be applied prospectively, while all other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. This guidance was applicable to the Company at the beginning of fiscal year 2021 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued a new credit loss standard to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology. The new impairment model requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur for most financial assets and certain other instruments. This new standard is to be adopted by way of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first effective reporting period. This guidance was applicable to the Company at the beginning of fiscal year 2021 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.
In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance that simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those reporting periods. Certain amendments should be applied prospectively, while other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

In connection with the Separation, as required by the SYNNEX stock incentive plans, the Company made certain adjustments to outstanding employee equity awards with the intention of preserving the intrinsic value of the awards prior to the Separation. There were 1,452 awards outstanding at November 30, 2020. In accordance with the employee matters agreement, each exercisable and non-exercisable stock option and unvested restricted stock award was modified into similar awards of both SYNNEX and Concentrix and the exercise price of outstanding stock options was adjusted to preserve the intrinsic value of the awards. Certain restricted stock units and performance-contingent awards were modified to provide the holders restricted stock units and performance contingent awards in the company that employs such employee following the Separation. When settled wholly in the employer’s shares, the ratio was based on the closing stock price of SYNNEX at November 30, 2020 compared to the opening stock price of the respective entity on December 1, 2020. The options strike prices were adjusted in the same manner. The modification of these awards did not result in material incremental compensation cost.

Foreign currency translation adjustment and other, net of taxes, is comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on Concentrix’ available-for-sale debt securities prior to the Separation.
NOTE 6—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, equity risk, commodity price changes and credit risk. The Company enters into transactions, and owns monetary assets and liabilities, that are denominated in currencies other than the legal entity’s functional currency. The Company may enter into forward contracts, option contracts, swaps, or other derivative instruments to offset a portion of the risk on expected future cash flows, earnings, net investments in certain international subsidiaries and certain existing assets and liabilities. However, the Company may choose not to hedge certain exposures for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, accounting considerations and the prohibitive economic cost of hedging particular exposures. There can be no assurance the hedges will offset more than a portion of the financial impact resulting from movements in foreign currency exchange or interest rates. Generally, the Company does not use derivative instruments to cover equity risk and credit risk. The Company’s hedging program is not used for trading or speculative purposes.
All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, or as a component of AOCI in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as discussed below.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses interest rate derivative contracts to economically convert a portion of its variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. The swaps have maturities at various dates through October 2023 . Gains and losses on cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Deferred gains and losses associated with cash flow hedges of interest payments are recognized in “Interest expense and Finance charges, net” in the same period as the related expense is recognized. Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges must be de-designated as hedges when it is probable the forecasted hedged transaction will not occur in the initially identified time period or within a subsequent two-month time period. Deferred gains and losses in AOCI associated with such derivative instruments are reclassified into earnings in the period of de-designation. Any subsequent changes in fair value of such derivative instruments are recorded in earnings unless they are re-designated as hedges of other transactions.

Non-Designated Derivatives
The Company uses short-term forward contracts to offset the foreign exchange risk of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective entities. These contracts, which are not designated as hedging instruments, mature or settle within twelve months . Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in the financial statement line item to which the derivative relates.
Fair Values of Derivative Instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets
The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are disclosed in Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements and summarized in the table below:

Volume of Activity
The notional amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts represent the gross amounts of foreign currency, including, principally, the Canadian Dollar, the Brazilian Real, the Euro, the Colombian Peso, the Chilean Peso, the Indian Rupee, the Chinese Yuan and the Japanese Yen, that will be bought or sold at maturity. The term and notional amount of interest rate swaps are determined based on management’s assessment of future interest rates and other factors such as debt maturities. The notional amounts for outstanding derivative instruments provide one measure of the transaction volume outstanding and do not represent the amount of the Company’s exposure to credit or market loss. The Company’s exposure to credit loss and market risk will vary over time as currency and interest rates change.

The gains and losses largely offset the currency gains and losses that resulted from changes in the assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies.
There were no material gain or loss amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. Existing net losses in AOCI that are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the normal course of business within the next twelve months are $ 39,413 .
Offsetting of Derivatives
The Company’s derivative instruments are generally governed by standard International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements, which generally do not require the Company to post any collateral, and specify netting rights, and other customary provisions including events of defaults and termination rights.
In the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the Company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements. If derivative exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement had been netted in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the total derivative asset and liability positions would have been reduced by $ 257 each as of May 31, 2021 and $ 139 each as of November 30, 2020.
Credit exposure for derivative financial instruments is limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties’ obligations under the contracts exceed the Company’s obligations to the counterparties. The Company manages the potential risk of credit losses through careful evaluation of counterparty credit standing and selection of counterparties from a limited group of financial institutions.
NOTE 7—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:
The Company’s fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

The Company’s cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments in money market funds and term deposits with maturity periods of three months or less. The carrying values of cash equivalents approximate fair value since they are near their maturity. Investments in marketable equity securities, primarily comprising investments in other companies’ equity securities as per local customary business practice, are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices. The fair values of forward exchange contracts are measured based on the foreign currency spot and forward rates quoted by the banks or foreign currency dealers. Fair values of interest rate swaps are measured using standard valuation models using inputs that are readily available in public markets, or can be derived from observable market transactions, including LIBOR spot and forward rates. The effect of nonperformance risk on the fair value of derivative instruments was not material as of May 31, 2021 and November 30, 2020.
The carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximate fair value due to their short maturities and interest rates which are variable in nature. The carrying value of the Company’s term loans approximate their fair value since they bear interest rates that are similar to existing market rates.
During the six months ended May 31, 2021, there were no transfers between the fair value measurement category levels.
NOTE 8—ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARRANGEMENTS:
The Company has an uncommitted supply-chain financing program with a global financial institution under which trade accounts receivable of certain customers and their affiliates may be acquired, without recourse, by the financial institution. Available capacity under this program is dependent on the level of the Company’s trade accounts receivable with these customers and the financial institution’s willingness to purchase such receivables. As of May 31, 2021 and November 30, 2020, accounts receivable sold to and held by the financial institution under this program were $ 13,872 and $ 15,572 , respectively. Discount fees related to the sale of trade accounts receivable under this facility are included in “Interest expense and finance charges, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020, discount fees were not material to the Company’s results of operations.
SYNNEX Japan, the Company’s Japanese subsidiary, has arrangements with financial institutions for the sale and financing of approved accounts receivable and notes receivable. The amounts outstanding under these arrangements that were sold, but not collected, as of May 31, 2021 and November 30, 2020 were $ 58,254 and $ 5,798 , respectively.

SYNNEX United States accounts receivable securitization arrangement
In the United States, the Company has an accounts receivable securitization program to provide additional capital for its operations (the “U.S. AR Arrangement”). U nder the terms of the U.S. AR Arrangement, which expires in May 2022 , the Company’s subsidiary that is the borrower under this facility could borrow up to a maximum of $ 650,000 based upon eligible trade accounts receivable. In addition, the U.S. AR Arrangement includes an accordion feature to allow requests for an increase in the lenders' commitment by an additional $ 150,000 . The effective borrowing cost under the U.S. AR Arrangement is a blended rate based upon the composition of the lenders, that includes prevailing dealer commercial paper rates and a rate based upon LIBOR. In addition, a program fee payable on the used portion of the lenders’ commitment, accrues at 1.25 % per annum in the case of lender groups who fund their advances based on prevailing commercial paper rates, and 1.30 % per annum in the case of lender groups who fund their advances based on LIBOR (subject to a 0.50 % per annum floor). A facility fee is payable on the adjusted commitment of the lenders, to accrue at different tiers ranging between 0.35 % per annum and 0.45 % per annum depending on the amount of outstanding advances from time to time.
Under the terms of the U.S. Arrangement, the Company and two of its U.S. subsidiaries sell, on a revolving basis, their receivables to a wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. The borrowings are funded by pledging all of the rights, title and interest in the receivables acquired by the Company's bankruptcy-remote subsidiary as security. Any amounts received under the U.S. AR Arrangement are recorded as debt on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

SYNNEX new c redit agreement
In connection with the Merger Agreement described in Note 17 - Pending Merger, the Company has entered into a new credit agreement, dated as of April 16, 2021 (the “New Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as agent, pursuant to which the Company has received commitments for the extension of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility not to exceed an aggregate principal amount of $ 3,500,000 , including a $ 200,000 letter of credit sub-facility, which revolving credit facility (the “new revolving credit facility”) may, subject to the lenders’ discretion, potentially be increased by up to an aggregate amount of $ 500,000 and for the extension of a senior unsecured term loan (the “new term loan” and, together with the new revolving credit facility, the “new credit facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $ 1,500,000 . The commitments under the new credit facilities are subject to customary conditions. The borrower under the new credit facilities is the Company. There are no guarantors of the new credit facilities.
The commitments under the new credit facilities terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) with respect to the revolving commitments, the fifth anniversary of the closing date (subject to two one-year extensions upon the Company’s prior notice to the lenders and the agreement of the lenders to extend such maturity date), (ii) in the event SYNNEX voluntarily elects to reduce such commitments to zero, on such date, or subject to certain conditions, following an event of default, (iii) if the closing does not occur prior to such date, five business days after the termination date of the Merger Agreement, and (iv) the date that the Merger Agreement is terminated by SYNNEX in a signed writing in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
The funding under the new credit facilities is subject to customary closing conditions.
The proceeds of the loans under the new term loan will be used to provide a portion of the debt financing required to refinance certain indebtedness of the Company and Tech Data, which is required to consummate the proposed transactions related to the Merger, together with the payment of related fees and expenses, and the borrowings (if any) under the new revolving credit facility on the closing date of the proposed transactions will be used to pay fees and expenses related to the Merger and related transactions. After the closing date, the revolving credit facility will, subject to customary conditions, be available for general corporate purposes or any other purpose not prohibited by the New Credit Agreement.
The outstanding principal amount of the term loan will be, once advanced, payable in quarterly installments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the original principal balance commencing on the last day of the first full fiscal quarter after the closing date of the new credit facilities, with the outstanding principal amount of the term loans due in full on the maturity date. Loans borrowed under the New Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of LIBOR (or successor) rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR (or successor) rate, plus the applicable margin, which may range from 1.125 % to 1.75 %, based on the Company’s public debt rating (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). The applicable margin on base rate loans is 1.00 % less than the corresponding margin on LIBOR (or successor rate) based loans. In addition to these borrowing rates, there is a commitment fee which ranges from 0.125 % to 0.300 % on any unused commitment under the new revolving credit facility based on the Company’s public debt rating.
The New Credit Agreement contains various loan covenants that will restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to take certain actions that are customary for similar facilities for similarly rated borrowers. The New Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants which will require compliance with a maximum debt to EBITDA ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, in each case tested on the last day of any fiscal quarter commencing with the first full fiscal quarter to occur after the closing date of the new credit facilities. The New Credit Agreement also contains various customary events of default, including with respect to a change of control of the Company.
On March 22, 2021, the Company had entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”), under which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and certain other financing institutions joining thereto pursuant to the terms thereof committed to provide (i) a $ 1.5 billion senior unsecured term bridge facility (the "Term Loan A Bridge Facility"), (ii) a $ 2.5 billion senior unsecured term bridge facility (the “Bridge Facility”) and (iii) a $ 3.5 billion senior unsecured revolving bridge facility (the "Bridge Revolving Facility"), subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions. On April 16, 2021, (i) the $ 1.5 billion commitment with respect to Term Loan A Bridge Facility under the Commitment Letter and (ii) the $ 3.5 billion commitment with respect to Bridge Revolving Facility under the Commitment Letter were reduced to zero , in each case, as a result of SYNNEX entering into the New Credit Agreement.

NOTE 16—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Company was contingently liable as of May 31, 2021 under agreements to repurchase repossessed inventory acquired by flooring companies as a result of default on floor plan financing arrangements by the Company's customers. These arrangements are described in Note 8 - Accounts Receivable Arrangements and do not have expiration dates. As the Company does not have access to information regarding the amount of inventory purchased from the Company, still on hand with the customer at any point in time, the Company’s repurchase obligations relating to inventory cannot be reasonably estimated. Losses, if any, would be the difference between the repossession cost and the resale value of the inventory. There have been no repurchases through May 31, 2021 under these agreements and the Company is not aware of any pending customer defaults or repossession obligations. The Company believes that, based on historical experience, the likelihood of a material loss pursuant to these inventory repurchase obligations is remote.
From time to time, the Company receives notices from third parties, including customers and suppliers, seeking indemnification, payment of money or other actions in connection with claims made against them. Also, from time to time, the Company has been involved in various bankruptcy preference actions where the Company was a supplier to the companies now in bankruptcy. In addition, the Company is subject to various other claims, both asserted and unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company evaluates these claims and records the related liabilities. It is possible that the ultimate liabilities could differ from the amounts recorded.
Under the separation and distribution agreement with Concentrix that was entered into in connection with the Separation, SYNNEX agreed to indemnify Concentrix, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to SYNNEX as part of the Separation. Similarly, Concentrix agreed to indemnify SYNNEX, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to Concentrix as part of the Separation. SYNNEX expects Concentrix to fully perform under the terms of the separation and distribution agreement.
Under the separation and distribution agreement, SYNNEX and Concentrix agreed to cooperate with each other in managing litigation related to both companies' businesses. The separation and distribution agreement also included provisions that assign to each company responsibility for managing pending and future litigation related to the general corporate matters of SYNNEX arising prior to the Separation.
Under the tax matters agreement with Concentrix that was entered into in connection with the Separation, if the spin-off fails to qualify for tax-free treatment, Concentrix is generally required to indemnify the Company for any taxes resulting from the spin-off (and related costs and other damages) to the extent such amounts result from (1) an acquisition of all or a portion of the Concentrix’ equity securities or assets by any means, (2) any action or failure to act by Concentrix after the distribution affecting the voting rights of Concentrix’ stock, (3) other actions or failures to act by Concentrix’, or (4) certain breaches of the Concentrix’ agreements and representations in the tax matters agreement.
The Company does not believe that the above commitments and contingencies will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

NOTE 17—PENDING MERGER:
On March 22, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire 100 % of the parent company of Tech Data Corporation, a Delaware Corporation ("Tech Data") in a cash and stock transaction (the "Merger"). The consideration payable to the stockholder that owns Tech Data in connection with the Merger (the “Merger Consideration”) consists of $ 1.61 billion in cash and 44 million shares of common stock of SYNNEX. Following the proposed Merger, the sole stockholder of Tech Data will own approximately 45.9 % of SYNNEX common stock on a fully diluted basis, based on the Company’s shares outstanding as of May 31, 2021. If the Merger is not consummated, then under certain circumstances the Company would be obligated to pay Tech Data a termination fee ranging from approximately $ 41 million to $ 132 million.
The Merger is expected to create a global IT distribution leader with significant breadth and depth of product offerings, services and logistic capabilities. For the twelve months ended January 31, 2021, Tech Data generated $ 36.37 billion in revenue and approximately $ 21 million of net income.
The Company and Tech Data filed their respective notification and report forms under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 with respect to the Merger with the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice. The waiting period for filings made by both SYNNEX and Tech Data expired on June 4, 2021.
On June 30, 2021, the Company received stockholder approval for the issuance of shares of SYNNEX common stock in connection with the initial merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Certain foreign regulatory approvals are pending. The Company expects the transaction to close in the second half of the calendar year 2021.
As discussed in Note 9 – Borrowings, the Company has secured financing arrangements to finance the Merger.
Additionally, prior to the completion of the proposed merger, the Company's ability to issue dividends outside its normal practice or repurchase shares of common stock is limited.
