Overview


We are one of the leading providers of worldwide manufacturing services and
solutions. We provide comprehensive electronics design, production and product
management services to companies in various industries and end markets. Our
services enable our customers to reduce manufacturing costs, improve
supply-chain management, reduce inventory obsolescence, lower transportation
costs and reduce product fulfillment time. Our manufacturing and supply chain
management services and solutions include innovation, design, planning,
fabrication and assembly, delivery and managing the flow of resources and
products. We derive substantially all of our revenue from production and product
management services (collectively referred to as "manufacturing services"),
which encompass the act of producing tangible components that are built to
customer specifications and are then provided to the customer.

We serve our customers primarily through dedicated business units that combine
highly automated, continuous flow manufacturing with advanced electronic design
and design for manufacturability. We depend, and expect to continue to depend,
upon a relatively small number of customers for a significant percentage of our
net revenue, which in turn depends upon their growth, viability and financial
stability. Based on net revenue, for the six months ended February 29, 2020, our
largest customers include Amazon.com, Inc., Apple, Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc.,
Hewlett-Packard Company, Ingenico Group, Johnson and Johnson, LM Ericsson
Telephone Company, NetApp, Inc., SolarEdge Technologies Inc., and Valeo S.A.

We conduct our operations in facilities that are located worldwide, including
but not limited to, China, Ireland, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore and the United
States. We derived a substantial majority, 82.6% and 82.2%, of net revenue from
our international operations for the three months and six months ended
February 29, 2020. Our global manufacturing production sites allow customers to
manufacture products simultaneously in the optimal locations for their products.
Our global presence is key to assessing and executing on our business
opportunities.

We have two reporting segments: Electronics Manufacturing Services ("EMS") and
Diversified Manufacturing Services ("DMS"), which are organized based on the
economic profiles of the services performed, including manufacturing
capabilities, market strategy, margins, return on capital and risk profiles. Our
EMS segment is focused around leveraging IT, supply chain design and
engineering, technologies largely centered on core electronics, utilizing our
large scale manufacturing infrastructure and our ability to serve a broad range
of end markets. Our EMS segment is a high volume business that produces product
at a quicker rate (i.e. cycle time) and in larger quantities and includes
customers primarily in the automotive and transportation, capital equipment,
cloud, computing and storage, defense and aerospace, industrial and energy,
networking and telecommunications, print and retail, and smart home and
appliances industries. Our DMS segment is focused on providing engineering
solutions, with an emphasis on material sciences, technologies and healthcare.
Our DMS includes customers primarily in the edge devices and accessories,
healthcare, mobility and packaging industries.

We monitor the current economic environment and its potential impact on both the
customers we serve as well as our end-markets and closely manage our costs and
capital resources so that we can respond appropriately as circumstances change.

Beginning in January of 2020, concerns related to the novel strain of
coronavirus, that originated in Wuhan, China, ("COVID-19") caused a disruption
to our business. While customer demand for our services remained strong, our
operations and our ability to satisfy customer orders were negatively impacted
due to both workforce and supply chain constraints as a result of virus
containment efforts that were undertaken in China. During the three months ended
February 29, 2020, we incurred approximately $53.0 million in direct costs
associated with the COVID-19 outbreak, primarily due to incremental and idle
labor costs leading to a reduction in factory utilization as a result of the
travel disruptions and governmental restrictions. Additionally, certain of the
Company's suppliers in China were similarly impacted leading to supply chain
constraints. As COVID-19 has spread to other jurisdictions and been declared a
global pandemic, the full extent of this outbreak, the related governmental,
business and travel restrictions in order to contain this virus are continuing
to evolve globally. Accordingly, there is significant uncertainty related to the
ultimate impact that this global pandemic will have on the results of our
operations. For example, virus containment efforts (as a result of governmental
actions or policies or other initiatives) could lead to reductions in capacity
utilization levels and or facility closures under which we would expect to incur
additional direct costs and lost revenue. If our suppliers experience similar
impacts, we may have difficulty sourcing materials necessary to fulfill customer
production requirements and transporting completed products to our end
customers.

Our performance is subject to global economic conditions, as well as their
impacts on levels of consumer spending and the production of goods. These
current conditions are significantly impacted by COVID-19, have had a negative
impact on our results of operations during the second quarter of fiscal year
2020 and will continue to have a negative impact on our operations over the next
fiscal quarter and likely beyond. See Risk Factors, "The effect of COVID-19 on
our operations and the operations

Key Performance Indicators
Management regularly reviews financial and non-financial performance indicators
to assess the Company's operating results. Changes in our operating assets and
liabilities are largely affected by our working capital requirements, which are
dependent on the effective management of our sales cycle as well as timing of
payments. Our sales cycle measures how quickly we can convert our manufacturing
services into cash through sales. We believe the metrics set forth below are
useful to investors in measuring our liquidity as future liquidity needs will
depend on fluctuations in levels of inventory, accounts receivable and accounts
payable.
The following table sets forth, for the quarterly periods indicated, certain of
management's key financial performance indicators:
                                                        Three months ended
                                                       November
                                    February 29, 2020  30, 2019   August 31, 2019 May 31, 2019
Sales cycle(1)                                30 days     23 days         19 days      27 days
Inventory turns (annualized)(2)               5 turns     6 turns         6 turns      6 turns
Days in accounts receivable(3)                34 days     43 days         38 days      39 days
Days in inventory(4)                          70 days     57 days         58 days      64 days
Days in accounts payable(5)                   74 days     77 days         77 days      76 days




(1) The sales cycle is calculated as the sum of days in accounts receivable and

days in inventory, less the days in accounts payable; accordingly, the

variance in the sales cycle quarter over quarter is a direct result of

changes in these indicators.

(2) Inventory turns (annualized) are calculated as 360 days divided by days in

inventory.

(3) Days in accounts receivable is calculated as accounts receivable, net,

divided by net revenue multiplied by 90 days. During the three months ended

February 29, 2020, the decrease is primarily driven by lower sales and the

timing of collections in the second quarter. During the three months ended

November 30, 2019, the increase in days in accounts receivable from the

prior sequential quarter was primarily due to an increase in accounts

receivable, primarily driven by higher sales and timing of collections.

(4) Days in inventory is calculated as inventory and contract assets divided by


      cost of revenue multiplied by 90 days. During the three months ended
      February 29, 2020, the increase is primarily driven by idle capacity and
      supply chain constraints, largely in China due to COVID-19. During the
      three months ended August 31, 2019, the decrease in days in inventory from

the prior sequential quarter was primarily due to increased sales activity


      during the quarter.


(5)   Days in accounts payable is calculated as accounts payable divided by cost
      of revenue multiplied by 90 days.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related
disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect
our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and
related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis,
we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and
various other factors and circumstances. Management believes that our estimates
and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results
may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different future
circumstances. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies,
refer to Note 1 - "Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements and "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended August 31, 2019.

Results of Operations
Net Revenue
Generally, we assess revenue on a global customer basis regardless of whether
the growth is associated with organic growth or as a result of an acquisition.
Accordingly, we do not differentiate or separately report revenue increases
generated by acquisitions as opposed to existing business. In addition, the
added cost structures associated with our acquisitions have historically been
relatively insignificant when compared to our overall cost structure.
The distribution of revenue across our segments has fluctuated, and will
continue to fluctuate, as a result of numerous factors, including the following:
fluctuations in customer demand; efforts to diversify certain portions of our
business; business growth from new and existing customers; specific product
performance; and any potential termination, or substantial winding down, of
significant customer relationships.

Net revenue increased during the three months ended February 29, 2020, compared
to the three months ended February 28, 2019. Specifically, the EMS segment
revenues increased 1% primarily due to (i) a 6% increase in revenues from
existing customers within our cloud business, (ii) a 3% increase in revenues
from existing customers within our capital equipment business and (iii) a 2%
increase in revenues spread across various industries within the EMS segment.
The increase is partially offset by (i) an 8% decrease from existing customers
within our networking and telecommunications business and (ii) a 2% decrease in
revenues spread across various industries within the EMS segment. DMS segment
revenues increased 1% due to a 17% increase in revenues from new and existing
customers in our healthcare and packaging businesses. The increase is partially
offset by (i) a 15% decrease in revenue from customers within our mobility and
edge devices and accessories businesses as our ability to meet customer demand
was greatly diminished as COVID-19 containment efforts were implemented in China
and (ii) a 1% decrease in revenues spread across various industries within the
DMS segment.
Net revenue increased during the six months ended February 29, 2020, compared to
the six months ended February 28, 2019. Specifically, the EMS segment revenues
increased 13% primarily due to (i) a 16% increase in revenues from existing
customers within our cloud business, (ii) a 2% increase in revenues from
existing customers within our capital equipment business and (iii) a 3% increase
in revenues spread across various industries within the EMS segment. The
increase is partially offset by (i) a 7% decrease from existing customers within
our networking and telecommunications business and (ii) a 1% decrease from
existing customers within our computing and storage business. DMS segment
revenues increased 2% due to a 14% increase in revenues from new and existing
customers in our healthcare and packaging businesses. The increase is partially
offset by a 12% decrease in revenue from customers within our mobility and edge
devices and accessories businesses due to: (i) our ability to meet customer
demand, which was greatly diminished as COVID-19 containment efforts were
implemented in China during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 and (ii)
decreased end user product demand and end market dynamics in the first quarter
of fiscal year 2020.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, revenue by segment

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue decreased for the three months ended February 29, 2020, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2019, primarily due to an increase of $46.7 million in incremental and idle labor costs associated with travel disruptions and governmental restrictions, largely related to the COVID-19 outbreak.



Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue decreased for the six months ended
February 29, 2020, compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019, primarily
due to an increase of $46.7 million in incremental and idle labor costs
associated with travel disruptions and governmental restrictions,
largely related to the COVID-19 outbreak. Additionally, gross profit as a
percent of revenue decreased for the EMS segment largely due to product mix and
weakness in the capital equipment business during the first quarter. The
decrease was partially offset by an increase in the DMS segment in the first
quarter due to improved profitability across the various businesses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased during the three months
ended February 29, 2020, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2019.
The increase is predominantly due to (i) $6.3 million in costs related to the
COVID-19 outbreak, including personal protection equipment and (ii) a $2.2
million increase in salary and salary related expenses and other costs primarily
to support new business growth and development and our strategic collaboration
with a healthcare company. The increase is partially offset by (i) a $5.0
million decrease in acquisition and integration charges related to our strategic
collaboration with a healthcare company and (ii) a $0.6 million decrease in
stock-based compensation expense.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased during the six months

Amortization of intangibles increased during the three months and six months
ended February 29, 2020, compared to the three months and six months ended
February 28, 2019, primarily driven by amortization related to the Nypro trade
name, which was reclassified to a definite-lived intangible asset during the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019 as a result of our decision to rebrand. As
such, this trade name was assigned a four-year estimated useful life and is
being amortized on an accelerated basis.

2020 Restructuring Plan
On September 20, 2019, our Board of Directors formally approved a restructuring
plan to realign our global capacity support infrastructure, particularly in our
mobility footprint in China, in order to optimize organizational effectiveness.
This action includes headcount reductions and capacity realignment (the "2020
Restructuring Plan"). The 2020 Restructuring Plan reflects our intention only
and restructuring decisions, and the timing of such decisions, at certain
locations are still subject to consultation with our employees and their
representatives.
We currently expect to recognize approximately $85.0 million in pre-tax
restructuring and other related costs primarily over the course of our fiscal
year 2020. The charges relating to the 2020 Restructuring Plan are currently
expected to result in cash expenditures in the range of approximately $30.0
million to $40.0 million that will be payable over the course of our fiscal
years 2020 and 2021. The exact timing of these charges and cash outflows, as
well as the estimated cost ranges by category type, have not been finalized.
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 particular jurisdictions
impacted, and the amount and timing of the actual charges may vary due to a
variety of factors. Our estimates for the charges discussed above exclude any
potential income tax effects.
The 2020 Restructuring Plan, once complete, is expected to yield annualized cost
savings beginning in fiscal year 2021 of approximately $40.0 million. We expect
cost savings of $25.0 million during fiscal year 2020.
See Note 13 - "Restructuring and Related Charges" to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements for further discussion of restructuring and related charges
for the 2020 Restructuring Plan.

The increase in impairment on securities for the three months and six months
ended February 29, 2020, compared to the three months and six months ended
February 28, 2019 is due to a non-cash impairment charge in connection with the
sale of an investment in the optical networking segment.
Other Expense
                                Three months ended                                      Six months ended

Other expense decreased for the three months ended February 29, 2020, compared
to the three months ended February 28, 2019, primarily due to: (i) $2.3 million
related to a decrease in fees associated with the utilization of the trade
accounts receivable sales programs and (ii) $2.6 million related to lower net
periodic benefit costs. The decrease was partially offset by $1.6 million of
other expense.
Other expense decreased for the six months ended February 29, 2020, compared to
the six months ended February 28, 2019, primarily due to: (i) $4.6 million
related to a decrease in fees associated with the utilization of the trade
accounts receivable sales programs and fees incurred for the amendment of the
foreign asset-backed securitization program and the new North American
asset-backed securitization program in fiscal year 2019 and (ii) $4.3 million
related to lower net periodic benefit costs. The decrease was partially offset
by $3.3 million of other expense.

Interest income remained relatively consistent during the three months ended
February 29, 2020, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2019.
Interest income increased during the six months ended February 29, 2020,
compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019, due to increased cash
equivalents (investments that are readily convertible to cash with maturity
dates of 90 days or less).

Interest expense remained consistent during the three months ended February 29,
2020, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2019.
Interest expense increased during the six months ended February 29, 2020,
compared to the six months ended February 28, 2019, due to additional borrowings
on our credit facilities and commercial paper program, partially offset by lower
interest rates.

The effective income tax rate increased for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2020, compared to the three months and six months ended February 28, 2019, primarily due to: (i) decreased income for the three months and six months ended February 29, 2020, driven in part by increased restructuring charges with minimal related tax benefit; and (ii)

adjustments related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act") for the

recorded during the three months ended November 30, 2018.

Non-GAAP (Core) Financial Measures
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations include certain non-GAAP financial measures as identified in the
reconciliations below. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed herein do not
have standard meaning and may vary from the non-GAAP financial measures used by
other companies or how we may calculate those measures in other instances from
time to time. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute
for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. Also, our "core" financial measures should not be construed as
an indication by us that our future results will be unaffected by those items
that are excluded from our "core" financial measures.
Management believes that the non-GAAP "core" financial measures set forth below
are useful to facilitate evaluating the past and future performance of our
ongoing manufacturing operations over multiple periods on a comparable basis by
excluding the effects of the amortization of intangibles, stock-based
compensation expense and related charges, restructuring and related charges,
distressed customer charges, acquisition and integration charges, loss on
disposal of subsidiaries, settlement of receivables and related charges,
impairment of notes receivable and related charges, goodwill impairment charges,
business interruption and impairment charges, net, impairment on securities,
restructuring of securities loss, income (loss) from discontinued operations,
gain (loss) on sale of discontinued operations and certain other expenses, net
of tax and certain deferred tax valuation allowance charges. Among other uses,
management uses non-GAAP "core" financial measures to make operating decisions,
assess business performance and as a factor in determining certain employee
performance when evaluating incentive compensation.
We determine the tax effect of the items excluded from "core" earnings and
"core" diluted earnings per share based upon evaluation of the statutory tax
treatment and the applicable tax rate of the jurisdiction in which the pre-tax
items were incurred, and for which realization of the resulting tax benefit, if
any, is expected. In certain jurisdictions where we do not expect to realize a
tax benefit (due to existing tax incentives or a history of operating losses or
other factors resulting in a valuation allowance related to deferred tax
assets), a reduced or 0% tax rate is applied.
We are reporting "core" operating income, "core" earnings and adjusted free cash
flow to provide investors with an additional method for assessing operating
income and earnings, by presenting what we believe are our "core" manufacturing
operations. A significant portion (based on the respective values) of the items
that are excluded for purposes of calculating "core" operating income and "core"
earnings also impacted certain balance sheet assets, resulting in a portion of
an asset being written off without a corresponding recovery of cash we may have
previously spent with respect to the asset. In the case of restructuring and
related charges, we may make associated cash payments in the future. In
addition, although, for purposes of calculating "core" operating income and
"core" earnings, we exclude stock-based compensation expense (which we
anticipate continuing to incur in the future) because it is a non-cash expense,
the associated stock issued may result in an increase in our outstanding shares
of stock, which may result in the dilution of our stockholders' ownership
interest. We encourage you to consider these matters when evaluating the utility
of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating
activities plus cash receipts on sold receivables less net capital expenditures
(acquisition of property, plant and equipment less proceeds and advances from
the sale of property, plant and equipment). We report adjusted free cash flow as
we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in measuring
our ability to generate cash internally and fund future growth and to provide a
return to shareholders.
Included in the tables below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures as
provided in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

expense. We are reclassifying the pension components in other expense to

core operating income as we assess operating performance, inclusive of all

components of net periodic benefit cost, with the related revenue. There is

no impact to core earnings or diluted core earnings per share for this

adjustment.

(3) Charges, net of insurance proceeds of $2.9 million for the six months ended

(1) In fiscal year 2019, the adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")

2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments"

resulted in a reclassification of cash flows from operating activities to

investing activities for cash receipts for the deferred purchase price


       receivable on asset-backed securitization transactions. The adoption of
       this standard does not reflect a change in the underlying business or

activities. The effects of this change are applied retrospectively to all


       prior periods.



Acquisitions and Expansion
During fiscal year 2018, the Company and Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices
Companies ("JJMD") entered into a Framework Agreement to form a strategic
collaboration and expand our existing relationship. The strategic collaboration
expands our medical device manufacturing portfolio, diversification and
capabilities.
On February 25, 2019 and April 29, 2019, under the terms of the Framework
Agreement, we completed the initial and second closings, respectively, of our
acquisition of certain assets of JJMD. The preliminary aggregate purchase price
paid for the initial and second closings was approximately $166.2 million in
cash. For the initial and second closings, total assets acquired of $172.3
million and total liabilities assumed of $6.1 million were recorded at their
estimated fair values as of the acquisition dates.

On September 30, 2019, under the terms of the Framework Agreement, we completed
the third closing of our acquisition of certain assets of JJMD. The preliminary
aggregate purchase price paid for the third closing was approximately $111.8
million in cash, which remains subject to certain post-closing adjustments based
on conditions within the Framework Agreement. For the third closing, total
assets acquired of $199.7 million, including $83.2 million in contract assets,
$35.1 million in inventory and $70.4 million in goodwill, and total liabilities
assumed of $87.9 million, including $73.5 million of pension obligations, were
recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. There were
no intangible assets identified in this acquisition and the goodwill is
primarily attributable to the assembled workforce. The majority of the goodwill
is currently not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The acquisition of the JJMD assets have been accounted for as separate business
combinations for each closing using the acquisition method of accounting. We are
currently evaluating the fair values of the assets and liabilities related to
the second and third closings of these business combinations. The preliminary
estimates and measurements are, therefore, subject to change during the
measurement period for assets acquired, liabilities assumed and tax adjustments.
The results of operations were included in our consolidated financial results
beginning on February 25, 2019 for the initial closing, April 29, 2019 for the
second closing and September 30, 2019 for the third closing. We believe it is
impracticable to provide pro forma information for the acquisition of the JJMD
assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our level of liquidity sources, which includes available
borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and commercial paper program,
additional proceeds available under our asset-backed securitization programs and
under our uncommitted trade accounts receivable sale programs, cash on hand,
funds provided by operations and the access to the capital markets, will be
adequate to fund our capital expenditures, the payment of any declared quarterly
dividends, approved share repurchase programs, any potential acquisitions and
our working capital requirements for the next 12 months. Despite the impacts of
the COVID-19 pandemic on our ability to estimate capital expenditures for fiscal
year 2020, we have historically been successful in balancing capital
expenditures commensurate with customer demand and would expect to be able to do
so in the future.  We continue to assess our capital structure and evaluate the
merits of redeploying available cash.
Certain of our trade accounts receivable sale programs expire or are subject to
termination provisions within the 2020 calendar year. In addition, our 5.625%
Senior Notes mature on December 15, 2020. While we expect to renew such trade
accounts receivable sale programs and refinance our Senior Notes, market
conditions, including the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, at the time our
current programs expire and debt matures, respectively, may create challenges in
doing so, such as incurring a higher cost of capital.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of February 29, 2020, we had approximately $696.7 million in cash and cash
equivalents. As our growth remains predominantly outside of the United States, a
significant portion of such cash and cash equivalents are held by our foreign
subsidiaries. Most of our cash and cash equivalents as of February 29, 2020
could be repatriated to the United States without potential tax consequences.
Notes Payable and Credit Facilities
Following is a summary of principal debt payments and debt issuance for our
notes payable and credit facilities:

(1) On January 15, 2020, we issued $500.0 million of publicly registered 3.600%


      Senior Notes due 2030 (the "3.600% Senior Notes"). The net proceeds from
      the offering were used for the repayment of term loan indebtedness.

(2) On January 22, 2020, we entered into a senior unsecured credit agreement

which provides for: (i) a Revolving Credit Facility in the initial amount


      of $2.7 billion, of which $700.0 million expires on January 22, 2023 and
      $2.0 billion expires on January 22, 2025 and (ii) a $300.0 million Term

Loan Facility which expires on January 22, 2025, (collectively the "Credit

Facility"). Interest and fees on the Credit Facility advances are based on

our non-credit enhanced long-term senior unsecured debt rating as

determined by Standard & Poor's Ratings Service, Moody's Investors Service

and Fitch Ratings. In connection with our entry into the Credit Facility,

we terminated our amended and restated five-year credit agreement dated

November 8, 2017 and the credit agreement dated August 24, 2018.





During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the interest rates on the
Revolving Credit Facility ranged from 2.5% to 3.0% and the Term Loan Facility
ranged from 2.9% to 3.2%. Interest is charged at a rate equal to (a) for the
Revolving Credit Facility, either 0.000% to 0.450% above the base rate or 0.975%
to 1.450% above the Eurocurrency rate and (b) for the Term Loan Facility, either
0.125% to 0.750% above the base rate or 1.125% to 1.750% above the Eurocurrency
rate. The base rate represents the greatest of: (i) Citibank, N.A.'s prime rate,
(ii) 0.50% above the federal funds rate, and (iii) 1.0% above one-month LIBOR,
but not less than zero. The Eurocurrency rate represents adjusted LIBOR or
adjusted CDOR, as applicable, for the applicable interest period, but not less
than zero. Fees include a facility fee based on the revolving credit commitments
of the lenders and a letter of credit fee based on the amount of outstanding
letters of credit.
(3)   As of February 29, 2020, we had $3.1 billion in available unused borrowing
      capacity under our revolving credit facilities, net of outstanding
      commercial paper borrowings.

(4) We have a borrowing capacity of up to $1.8 billion under our commercial

paper program. The revolving credit facility supports commercial paper

outstanding, if any. As of February 29, 2020, the outstanding commercial

paper has maturities of 90 days or less. During the three months ended

February 29, 2020, the interest rates on the commercial paper program

ranged from 2.0% to 2.6%.




We have a shelf registration statement with the SEC registering the potential
sale of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities in the future to
augment our liquidity and capital resources.

Our Senior Notes and our credit facilities contain various financial and
nonfinancial covenants. A violation of these covenants could negatively impact
our liquidity by restricting our ability to borrow under the notes payable and
credit facilities and potentially causing acceleration of amounts due under
these notes payable and credit facilities. As of February 29, 2020, we were in
compliance with our debt covenants. Refer to Note 5 - "Notes Payable and
Long-Term Debt" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further
details.
Asset-Backed Securitization Programs
We continuously sell designated pools of trade accounts receivable, at a
discount, under our foreign asset-backed securitization program and our North
American asset-backed securitization program to special purpose entities, which
in turn

                                       35

sell certain of the foreign asset-backed receivables to an unaffiliated
financial institution and a conduit administered by an unaffiliated financial
institution and certain of the North American asset-backed receivables to
conduits administered by an unaffiliated financial institution on a monthly
basis.
The foreign asset-backed securitization program contains a guarantee of payment
by the special purpose entity, in an amount approximately equal to the net cash
proceeds under the program. No liability has been recorded for obligations under
the guarantee as of February 29, 2020.
Certain unsold receivables covering the maximum amount of net cash proceeds
available under the North American asset-backed securitization program are
pledged as collateral to the unaffiliated financial institution as of
February 29, 2020.
Following is a summary of our asset-backed securitization programs and key
terms:

                         Maximum Amount of                 Expiration

(1)  Maximum amount available at any one time.


In connection with our asset-backed securitization programs, during the three
months and six months ended February 29, 2020, we sold $1.1 billion and $2.3
billion, respectively, of trade accounts receivable and we received cash
proceeds of $1.1 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. As of February 29,
2020, we had up to $76.3 million in available liquidity under our asset-backed
securitization programs.
Our asset-backed securitization programs contain various financial and
nonfinancial covenants. As of February 29, 2020 and August 31, 2019, we were in
compliance with all covenants under our asset-backed securitization programs.
Refer to Note 6 - "Asset-Backed Securitization Programs" to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the programs.

During the three months and six months ended February 29, 2020, we sold $2.2
billion and $4.2 billion, respectively, of trade accounts receivable under these
programs and we received cash proceeds of $2.2 billion and $4.2 billion,
respectively. As of February 29, 2020, we had up to $1.2 billion in available
liquidity under our trade accounts receivable sale programs.
Capital Expenditures
At this time, due to the implications of the impact of COVID-19, our net capital
expenditures are not estimable for fiscal year 2020. In general, our capital
expenditures support ongoing maintenance in our DMS and EMS segments and
investments in new markets. The amount of actual capital expenditures may be
affected by general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory
factors, among other things.
Cash Flows
The following table sets forth selected consolidated cash flow information (in
thousands):
                                                                  Six months ended

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents             $        (466,598 )

$ (508,892 )




Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended
February 29, 2020 was primarily due to non-cash expenses and decreased accounts
receivable, partially offset by decreased accounts payable, accrued expenses and
other liabilities and increased inventories, contract assets and prepaid
expenses and other current assets. The decrease in accounts receivable is
primarily driven by lower sales and the timing of collections. The decrease in
accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities is primarily due to a
decrease in materials purchases due to a decrease in customer demand and the
timing of purchases and cash payments. The increase in inventories is primarily
driven by idle capacity and supply chain constraints due to COVID-19. The
increase in contract assets is primarily due to the timing of revenue
recognition for over time customers. The increase in prepaid expenses and other
current assets is primarily due to an increase in value added tax receivables.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended February 29,
2020 consisted primarily of capital expenditures principally to support ongoing
business in the DMS and EMS segments and expenditures for assets acquired in
connection with the third closing of the acquisition of certain assets of JJMD,
partially offset by proceeds and advances from the sale of property, plant and
equipment.
Financing Activities

                                       37

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table of Contents



Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended
February 29, 2020 was primarily due to (i) borrowings under debt agreements and
(ii) net proceeds from the exercise of stock options and issuance of common
stock under the employee stock purchase plan. Net cash provided by financing
activities was partially offset by (i) payments for debt agreements, (ii) the
repurchase of our common stock, (iii) dividend payments and (iv) treasury stock
minimum tax withholding related to vesting of restricted stock.
Contractual Obligations
As of the date of this report, other than the borrowings on the 3.600% Senior
Notes and the Credit Facility (see Note 5 - "Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt"
to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and the items disclosed
below, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business
since August 31, 2019 to our contractual obligations and commitments.
In connection with the third closing of the acquisition of certain assets of
JJMD, we assumed additional contractual obligations related to postretirement
benefit plans and executed certain financing leases. The following table
provides details of these assumed obligations:
                                                            Payments due by period (in thousands)

plan during fiscal year 2020. These future payments are not recorded on

the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets but will be recorded as

incurred. Refer to Note 8 - Postretirement and other Employee Benefits for

further discussion of the assumed postretirement benefit obligation.

(2) The amount payable after five years includes $75.1 million in purchase

requirements at the end of the respective leases.




Dividends and Share Repurchases
We currently expect to continue to declare and pay regular quarterly dividends
of an amount similar to our past declarations. However, the declaration and
payment of future dividends are discretionary and will be subject to
determination by our Board of Directors each quarter following its review of our
financial performance and global economic conditions.
In September 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to
$600.0 million of our common stock as a part of a two-year capital allocation
framework (the "2020 Share Repurchase Program"). As of February 29, 2020, 4.4
million shares had been repurchased for $168.7 million and $431.3 million
remains available under the 2020 Share Repurchase Program.
