Description of Business
CDW Corporation (“Parent”), a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500 Index, is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to small, medium and large business, government, education and healthcare customers in the United States (“US”), the United Kingdom (“UK”) and Canada. The Company’s broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience and security.
Throughout this report, the terms the “Company” and “CDW” refer to Parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries.
Parent has two 100% owned subsidiaries, CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation. CDW LLC is an Illinois limited liability company that, together with its 100% owned subsidiaries, holds all material assets and conducts all business activities and operations of the Company. CDW Finance Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed for the sole purpose of acting as co-issuer of certain debt obligations and does not hold any material assets or engage in any business activities or operations.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2023 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The unaudited results of operations for such interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “December 31, 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements”). The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparing these Consolidated Financial Statements were applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in the December 31, 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. This ASU requires entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose key terms of the programs and information about the obligations that are outstanding at the end of the reporting period. This disclosure requirement is intended to provide information about an entity’s use of supplier finance programs and their effect on the entity’s working capital, liquidity and cash flows. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the rollforward requirement, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company adopted the standard during the first quarter of 2023 with the exception of the rollforward requirement, which will be adopted during the first quarter of 2024. The adoption of the standard only resulted in new disclosures for amounts presented within Accounts payable - inventory financing and did not affect the Company’s recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations on the Consolidated Financial Statements. For additional information on the new disclosures, see Note 4 (Inventory Financing Agreements).
3. Accounts Receivable and Contract Balances
Accounts Receivable
The following table details the total accounts receivable recognized and the related classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

(1)Accounts receivable, current are presented within Accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)Accounts receivable, noncurrent are presented within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
From time to time, the Company transfers certain accounts receivable, without recourse, to third-party financial companies as a method to reduce the Company’s credit exposure and accelerate cash collections. Such transfers are recognized as a sale and the related accounts receivable is derecognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheet upon receipt of payment from the third-party financing company. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold approximately $219 million and $229 million of accounts receivable, respectively.
Contract Balances
Contract assets and liabilities represent the difference in the timing of revenue recognition from receipt of cash from customers. Contract assets represent revenue recognized on performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied for which the Company has no unconditional right to consideration. Contract liabilities consist of payments received from customers, or such consideration that is contractually due, in advance of providing the product or performing services. The following table details information about the Company’s contract balances recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

(3)During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $265 million and $200 million, respectively, related to its contract liabilities that were included in the beginning balance of the respective periods.
A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The following table represents the total transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2023 related to non-cancelable contracts longer than 12 months in duration that is expected to be recognized over future periods.

4. Inventory Financing Agreements
The Company has entered into agreements with financial institutions to facilitate the purchase of inventory from designated suppliers under certain terms and conditions to enhance liquidity. Under these agreements, the Company receives extended payment terms and agrees to pay the financial institution a stated amount of confirmed invoices from its designated suppliers. The Company does not incur any interest or other incremental expenses associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. Additionally, the Company has no involvement in establishing the terms or conditions of the arrangements between its suppliers and the financial institution.
The amounts outstanding under these agreements as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $616 million and $519 million, respectively, and are separately presented as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The majority of such outstanding amounts relates to a floorplan sub-facility that is incorporated in the Company’s Revolving Loan Facility (as defined below). A portion of the Company’s availability under the Revolving Loan Facility is reserved to cover the obligation to pay the financial institution. For additional information regarding the Revolving Loan Facility, see Note 5 (Debt).

As of June 30, 2023, the Company is in compliance with the covenants under its credit agreements and indentures.
Credit Facility
The Company has a variable rate senior unsecured revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) from which it may draw tranches denominated in US dollars, British pounds or Euros. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the interest rate was based on London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin or an alternate base rate plus a margin, where the margin is based on the Company’s senior unsecured rating. The Revolving Loan Facility is used by the Company for borrowings, issuances of letters of credit and floorplan financing. As of June 30, 2023, the Company could have borrowed up to an additional $1.0 billion under the Revolving Loan Facility. As of June 30, 2023, the Revolving Loan Facility had less than $1 million of undrawn letters of credit and $616 million reserved for the floorplan sub-facility.
On June 7, 2023, the Revolving Loan Facility was amended to replace LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the interest rate benchmark, which will take into effect for the first interest rate period beginning after July 1, 2023.
Term Loan
The senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) has a variable interest rate. The interest rate is based on LIBOR plus a margin, where the margin is determined by the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company prepaid $50 million on the Term Loan Facility without penalty. As a result of the prepayments made to date, no additional mandatory payments are required on the remaining principal amount until its maturity date on December 1, 2026.
(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
On June 7, 2023, the Term Loan Facility was amended to replace LIBOR with SOFR as the interest rate benchmark, which will take into effect for the first interest rate period beginning after July 1, 2023.
Unsecured Senior Notes
The unsecured senior notes have a fixed interest rate, which is paid semi-annually.
Receivable Financing
The receivable financing liability relates to certain accounts receivable transferred to third-party financial institutions that did not qualify as a sale under the terms of the agreements. While the terms of such agreements are on a nonrecourse basis, the transfers of accounts receivable could not achieve certain criteria that would allow derecognition of the accounts receivable. The proceeds from these arrangements are recognized as a liability and the associated accounts receivable remains on the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the liability is settled. The Company did not execute any transfers under these agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Fair Value
The fair values of the unsecured senior notes were estimated using quoted market prices for identical liabilities that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets. The fair value of the Term Loan Facility was estimated using dealer quotes for identical liabilities in markets that are not considered active. The unsecured senior notes and Term Loan Facility were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Revolving Loan Facility approximates fair value.
The approximate fair values and related carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities and excluding unamortized discount and unamortized deferred financing costs, were as follows:

6. Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $91 million and $98 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 25.7% and 26.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Income tax expense was $157 million and $178 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 24.2% and 25.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The effective tax rate for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 differed from the US federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and local income taxes, partially offset by excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation.
(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
7. Earnings Per Share
The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share is Net income. The denominator for basic earnings per share is the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period.
A reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding is as follows:

(1)The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and Coworker Stock Purchase Plan units is reflected in the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.
(2)There were fewer than 0.3 million potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Inclusion of these common shares in diluted weighted average shares outstanding would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is party to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business, which include commercial, intellectual property, employment, tort and other litigation matters. The Company is also subject to audit by federal, state, international, national, provincial and local authorities, and by various partners, group purchasing organizations and customers, including government agencies, relating to purchases and sales under various contracts. In addition, the Company is subject to indemnification claims under various contracts. From time to time, certain customers of the Company file voluntary petitions for reorganization or liquidation under the US bankruptcy laws or similar laws of the jurisdictions for the Company’s business activities outside of the US. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company could be considered preference items and subject to return to the bankruptcy administrator.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company does not believe that there is a reasonable possibility that any material loss exceeding the amounts already recognized for these proceedings and matters, if any, has been incurred. However, the ultimate resolutions of these proceedings and matters are inherently unpredictable. As such, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements could be adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these proceedings or matters.
A subsidiary of the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand dated September 20, 2021 from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in connection with a False Claims Act investigation. The DOJ requested information related to teaming agreements with original equipment manufacturers and the Company is cooperating with the DOJ. At this stage of the matter, the Company is unable to assess the probability of any outcome or the range of possible loss, if any.
(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)
9. Segment Information
The Company’s segment information reflects the way the chief operating decision maker uses internal reporting to evaluate business performance, allocate resources and manage operations.
The Company has three reportable segments: Corporate, which is comprised primarily of private sector business customers with more than 250 employees in the US, Small Business, primarily servicing private sector business customers with up to 250 employees in the US, and Public, which is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. The Company has two other operating segments: CDW UK and CDW Canada, both of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”).
The Company has centralized logistics and headquarters functions that provide services to the segments. The logistics function includes purchasing, distribution and fulfillment services to support the Corporate, Small Business and Public segments. As a result, costs and intercompany charges associated with the logistics function are fully allocated to all of these segments based on a percent of Net sales. The centralized headquarters function provides services in areas such as accounting, information technology, marketing, legal and coworker services. Headquarters function costs that are not allocated to the segments are included under the heading of “Headquarters” in the tables below.
Information about the Company’s segments is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “we,”“us,”“the Company,”“our,”“CDW” and similar terms refer to CDW Corporation and its subsidiaries. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion.
Overview
CDW Corporation, a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500 Index, is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology (“IT”) solutions to small, medium and large business, government, education and healthcare customers in the US, the UK and Canada. Our broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions and services that include on-premise and cloud capabilities across hybrid infrastructure, digital experience and security.
We are vendor, technology and consumption model “agnostic”, with a solutions portfolio including more than 100,000 products and services from more than 1,000 leading and emerging brands. Our solutions are delivered in physical, virtual and cloud-based environments through approximately 10,600 customer-facing coworkers, including sellers, highly-skilled technology specialists and advanced service delivery engineers. We are a leading sales channel partner for many original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers and cloud providers (collectively, our “vendor partners”), whose products we sell or include in the solutions we offer. We provide our vendor partners with a cost-effective way to reach customers and deliver a consistent brand experience through our established end-market coverage, technical expertise and extensive customer access.
We have three reportable segments, Corporate, Small Business and Public. Our Corporate segment primarily serves US private sector business customers with more than 250 employees. Our Small Business segment primarily serves US private sector business customers with up to 250 employees. Our Public segment is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. We also have two other operating segments: CDW UK and CDW Canada, each of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”).
We may sell all or only select products that our vendor partners offer. Each vendor partner agreement provides for specific terms and conditions, which may include one or more of the following: product return privileges, price protection policies, purchase discounts and vendor incentive programs, such as purchase or sales rebates and cooperative advertising reimbursements. We also resell software for major software publishers. Our agreements with software publishers allow the end-user customer to acquire software or licensed products and services. In addition to helping our customers determine the best software solutions for their needs, we help them manage their software agreements, including warranties and renewals. A significant portion of our advertising and marketing expenses are reimbursed through cooperative advertising programs with our vendor partners. These programs are at the discretion of our vendor partners and are typically tied to sales or other commitments to be met by us within a specified period of time.
Trends and Key Factors Affecting our Financial Performance
We believe the following key factors may have a meaningful impact on our business performance, influencing our ability to generate sales and achieve our targeted financial and operating results:
•General economic conditions are a key factor affecting our results as they impact our customers’ willingness and ability to spend on information technology. Macroeconomic uncertainty persists as a result of the current inflationary environment, corresponding increase in interest rates driven by monetary policy, overall decline in economic growth rates in the United States and other countries and recent market events related to certain financial institutions. This increased uncertainty in the current economic environment resulted in, and may continue to result in, a delay, pause or reduction of investments in technology by our customers.
•Customers are balancing priorities to focus more on solutions that lead to business optimization and cost management, or in many cases are reassessing the timing of IT refresh cycles and pausing or deferring their IT spend. We have orchestrated solutions by leveraging netcomm products, security, software and hybrid and cloud offerings to help customers achieve their objectives.
•Changes in spending policies, budget priorities and funding levels, including current and future stimulus packages, are key factors influencing the purchasing levels of Government, Healthcare and Education customers. As the duration and ongoing impact of current economic conditions remain uncertain, current and future budget priorities and funding levels for Government, Healthcare and Education customers may be adversely affected, leading to lower IT spend.
•Technology trends drive customer purchasing behaviors in the market. Current technology trends are focused on delivering greater flexibility and efficiency, as well as designing and managing IT securely. These trends are driving customer adoption of solutions such as those delivered via cloud, software defined architectures and hybrid on-premise and off-premise combinations, as well as the evolution of the IT consumption model to more “as a service” offerings, including software as a service and infrastructure as a service, in addition to ongoing managed and professional service arrangements. Technology trends are likely to change as customers prioritize the projects that produce the most significant outcomes for their business.
Key Business Metrics
We monitor a number of financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis in order to track the progress of our business and make adjustments as necessary. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include average daily sales, Gross profit, Net income, Operating income, Operating income margin, Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Net sales on a constant currency basis, Net income per diluted share, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Free cash flow, Cash and cash equivalents, cash conversion cycle and debt levels including available credit. These measures and ratios are closely monitored by management, so that actions can be taken, as necessary, in order to achieve financial objectives.
In this section, we present Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Net sales on a constant currency basis and Free cash flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures.
We believe Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share and Net sales on a constant currency basis provide analysts, investors and management with helpful information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. Management uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. We also present Free cash flow as we believe this measure provides more information regarding our liquidity and capital resources. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation. For the definitions of Non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure, see “Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations.”

Net sales
Total Net sales decreased $520 million, or 8.5%, to $5,626 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $6,146 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decline in Net sales was driven by the Corporate and Small Business segments and our UK and Canadian operations, partially offset by an increase in the Public segment. The increase in economic uncertainty has led customers to focus their business priorities, resulting in a reduction of their technology spend, most notably in the Corporate and Small Business segments. For additional information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased $13 million, or 1.1%, to $1,182 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1,168 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of Net sales, Gross profit margin increased 200 basis points to 21.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in Gross profit margin was primarily driven by higher product margin due to lower mix in notebooks and increased rate across various categories, and a higher mix of netted down revenue, primarily software as a service.
Selling and administrative expenses
Selling and administrative expenses increased $36 million, or 5.0%, to $769 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $733 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to costs related to the reduction of our workforce and real estate portfolio (collectively “workplace optimization”), increased payroll expenses associated with higher year-over-year coworker count, partially offset by the impact of reduced discretionary expenses.
Operating income
Operating income decreased $23 million, or 5.3%, to $412 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $435 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Operating income decreased primarily due to costs related to workplace optimization, increased payroll expenses associated with higher year-over-year coworker count, partially offset by the impact of reduced discretionary expenses.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net was $58 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Interest expense, net remained consistent due to higher variable interest rate on the senior unsecured term loan, partially offset by lower debt levels.
Income tax expense was $91 million and $98 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 25.7% and 26.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior year was primarily attributable to higher excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation.

Corporate segment Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $416 million, or 15.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease in Net sales was across various hardware categories and software, partially offset by an increase in services.
Corporate segment Operating income was $207 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $24 million, or 10.7%, compared to $231 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Corporate segment Operating income decreased primarily driven by lower Gross profit dollars.
Small Business
Small Business segment Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $104 million, or 20.8%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease in Net sales was primarily driven by a decline in notebooks/mobile devices.
Small Business segment Operating income was $42 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $5 million, or 9.8%, compared to $47 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Small Business segment Operating income decreased primarily due to lower Gross profit dollars partially offset by lower performance-based compensation consistent with lower Gross profit attainment.
Public
Public segment Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased $52 million, or 2.3%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily within netcomm products across all sales channels, partially offset by collaboration and notebooks/mobile devices specifically within the Education and Healthcare sales channels.
Public segment Operating income was $210 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $33 million, or 18.7%, compared to $177 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Public segment Operating income increased primarily due to higher Gross profit dollars and lower payroll expenses.
Other
Net sales in Other, which is comprised of results from our UK and Canadian operations, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $52 million, or 7.0%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was driven by decreased Net sales across various categories related to both the Canadian and UK operations.
Other Operating income was $32 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $5 million, or 16.5%, compared to $28 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Other Operating income increased primarily due to higher Gross profit dollars related to the UK operations.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations
We have included reconciliations of Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, and Net sales on a constant currency basis for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 below.
Non-GAAP operating income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and the associated payroll taxes, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives and workplace optimization. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of Net sales. Non-GAAP net income excludes, among other things, charges related to acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives, workplace optimization and the associated tax effects of each. Net sales on a constant currency basis is defined as Net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on Net sales.
Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, and Net sales on a constant currency basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial condition that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by management may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We believe Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share and Net sales on a constant currency basis provide analysts, investors and management with helpful information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. Management uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation.

Net sales
Total Net sales decreased $1,366 million, or 11.3%, to $10,729 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $12,095 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decline in Net sales occurred across all operating segments. The increase in economic uncertainty has led customers to focus their business priorities, resulting in a deferral or reduction of their technology spend. For additional information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.
Gross profit
Gross profit decreased $1 million, or 0.1%, to $2,271 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $2,272 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of Net sales, Gross profit margin increased 240 basis points to 21.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in Gross profit margin was primarily driven by higher product margin due to lower mix in notebooks and increased rate across various categories and a higher mix of netted down revenue, primarily software as a service.
Selling and administrative expenses
Selling and administrative expenses increased $53 million, or 3.7%, to $1,503 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1,450 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was driven by costs related to workplace optimization, increased payroll expenses associated with higher year-over-year coworker count, partially offset by reduced discretionary expenses.
Operating income
Operating income decreased $55 million, or 6.7%, to $768 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $822 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Operating income decreased driven by costs related to workplace optimization, increased payroll expenses associated with higher year-over-year coworker count, partially offset by the impact of reduced discretionary expenses.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, increased $2 million, or 1.9%, to $116 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $114 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was driven by a higher variable interest rate on the senior unsecured term loan, partially offset by lower debt levels.
Income tax expense was $157 million and $178 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 24.2% and 25.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The lower effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of the prior year was primarily attributable to higher excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations
We have included reconciliations of Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Net sales on a constant currency basis and Free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 below.
Non-GAAP operating income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and the associated payroll taxes, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives and workplace optimization. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of Net sales. Non-GAAP net income excludes, among other things, charges related to acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, transformation initiatives, workplace optimization and the associated tax effects of each. Net sales on a constant currency basis is defined as Net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on Net sales. Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, adjusted for the net change in accounts payable-inventory financing and other financed purchases.
Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Net sales on a constant currency basis and Free cash flow are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial condition that either
excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by management may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We believe Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share and Net sales on a constant currency basis provide analysts, investors and management with helpful information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. Management uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. We also present Free cash flow as we believe this measure provides more information regarding our liquidity and capital resources. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation.

While we have not historically experienced significant seasonality throughout the year, sales in our Corporate segment, which primarily serves US private sector business customers with more than 250 employees, have historically been higher in the fourth quarter than in other quarters due to customers spending their remaining technology budget dollars at the end of the year. Additionally, sales in our Public segment have historically been higher in the third quarter than in other quarters primarily due to the buying patterns of the federal government and education customers. Since 2020, we have experienced variability compared to historic seasonality trends. Seasonality by channel is expected to continue to be different than historical experience.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our operations and capital expenditures with cash from operations and borrowings under our revolving loan facility. As of June 30, 2023, we had $1.0 billion of availability for borrowings under our revolving loan facility. Our liquidity and borrowing plans are established to align with our financial and strategic planning processes and ensure we have the necessary funding to meet our operating commitments, which primarily include the purchase of inventory, payroll and general expenses. We also take into consideration our overall capital allocation strategy, which includes dividend payments, assessment of debt levels, acquisitions and share repurchases. We believe we have adequate sources of liquidity and funding available for at least the next year; however, there are a number of factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds. The amount of cash generated from operations will be dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business plan, general economic conditions and working capital management.
Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we prepaid $50 million on our senior unsecured term loan facility without penalty. No additional mandatory payments are required on the remaining principal amount until its maturity date on December 1, 2026.
As of June 30, 2023, we had total unsecured indebtedness of $5.8 billion and we were in compliance with the covenants under our credit agreements and indentures.
We may from time to time repurchase one or more series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes, depending on market conditions, contractual commitments, our capital needs and other factors. Repurchases of our senior notes may be made by open market or privately negotiated transactions and may be pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or otherwise.
For additional information regarding our debt and refinancing activities, see Note 5 (Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Inventory Financing Agreements
We have entered into agreements with certain financial intermediaries to facilitate the purchase of inventory from various suppliers under certain terms and conditions. These amounts are classified separately as Accounts payable-inventory financing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not incur any interest expense associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. For additional information, see Note 4 (Inventory Financing Agreements) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Share Repurchase Program
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 2 million shares of our common stock for $396 million under the previously announced share repurchase program. For additional information on our share repurchase program, see “Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.”
Dividends
A summary of 2023 dividend activity for our common stock is as follows:
On August 2, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock of $0.590 per share. The dividend will be paid on September 12, 2023 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 25, 2023.
The payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects, capital requirements, contractual restrictions (including in current or future agreements governing our indebtedness), restrictions imposed by applicable law, tax considerations and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.

(2)The change is primarily due to lower stocking positions driven by customer demand in 2023.
(3)The change is primarily driven by timing of payments and lower sales activity in 2023.
In order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs, we monitor our cash conversion cycle, defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average. Components of our cash conversion cycle are as follows:

(1)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Accounts receivable, net at the end of the period, divided by average daily Net sales for the same three-month period. Also incorporates components of other miscellaneous receivables.
(2)Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Merchandise inventory at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.
(3)Represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of Accounts payable-trade, excluding cash overdrafts, and Accounts payable-inventory financing at the end of the period divided by average daily Cost of sales for the same three-month period.
The cash conversion cycle decreased to 14 days at June 30, 2023, compared to 19 days at June 30, 2022. The overall decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in DIO resulting from lower stocking positions. In addition, netted down revenue has an unfavorable impact to DSO and a favorable impact to DPO as the corresponding receivables and payables reflect the gross amounts due from customers and due to vendors while the corresponding sales and cost of sales are reflected on a net basis within Net sales.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased $55 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to higher acquisition activity in 2023 and increased capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased $185 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily driven by share repurchases in 2023 with no similar activity in 2022 and net repayments on our revolving loan facility, partially offset by mixing into vendors with extended payment terms under our inventory financing arrangements. For additional information regarding the inventory financing agreements and debt activities, see Note 4 (Inventory Financing Agreements) and Note 5 (Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Issuers and Guarantors of Debt Securities
Each series of our outstanding unsecured senior notes (the “Notes”) are issued by CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation (the “Issuers”) and are guaranteed by CDW Corporation (“Parent”) and certain of each CDW LLC’s direct and indirect, 100% owned, domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries” and, together with Parent, the “Guarantors”). All guarantees by Parent and the Guarantors are joint and several, and full and unconditional; provided that guarantees by the Guarantor Subsidiaries are subject to certain customary release provisions contained in the indentures governing the Notes.
The Notes and the related guarantees are the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations and are:
•structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries; and
•rank equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ existing and future unsecured senior debt.
The following tables set forth Balance Sheet information as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and Statement of Operations information for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022. The financial information includes the accounts of the Issuers and the accounts of the Guarantors (the “Obligor Group”). The financial information of the Obligor Group is presented on a combined basis and the intercompany balances and transactions between the Obligor Group have been eliminated.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. These statements relate to analyses and other information, which are based on forecasts of future results or events and estimates of amounts not yet determinable. These statements also relate to our future prospects, developments and business strategies. We claim the protection of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all forward-looking statements in this report.
These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “target” and similar terms and phrases or future or conditional verbs such as “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” and “would.” However, these words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and other expectations reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that we will achieve those plans, intentions or expectations. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those that we expected.
Important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under “Trends and Key Factors Affecting our Financial Performance” above, the section entitled “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and from time to time in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings and public
communications. These factors include, among others, inflationary pressures; level of interest rates; CDW’s relationships with vendor partners and terms of their agreements; the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and actions taken in response thereto and the associated impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and liquidity; continued innovations in hardware, software and services by CDW’s vendor partners; substantial competition that could reduce CDW’s market share; the continuing development, maintenance and operation of CDW’s information technology systems; potential breaches of data security and failure to protect our information technology systems from cybersecurity threats; potential failures to provide high-quality services to CDW’s customers; potential losses of any key personnel, significant increases in labor costs or ineffective workforce management; potential adverse occurrences at one of CDW’s primary facilities or third-party data centers, including as a result of climate change; increases in the cost of commercial delivery services or disruptions of those services; CDW’s exposure to accounts receivable and inventory risks; the potential failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Sirius in the expected timeframe or at all; future acquisitions or alliances; fluctuations in CDW’s operating results; fluctuations in foreign currency; global and regional economic and political conditions, including impacts of the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions against Russia; potential interruptions of the flow of products from suppliers; decreases in spending on technology products and services; potential failures to comply with Public segment contracts or applicable laws and regulations; current and future legal proceedings, investigations and audits, including intellectual property infringement claims; changes in laws, including regulations or interpretations thereof, or the potential failure to meet stakeholder expectations on environmental sustainability and corporate responsibility matters; CDW’s level of indebtedness; restrictions imposed by agreements relating to CDW’s indebtedness on its operations and liquidity; failure to maintain the ratings assigned to CDW’s debt securities by rating agencies; changes in, or the discontinuation of, CDW’s share repurchase program or dividend payments; and other risk factors or uncertainties identified from time to time in CDW’s filings with the SEC. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by those cautionary statements as well as other cautionary statements that are made from time to time in our other SEC filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements in the context of these risks and uncertainties.
We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not reflect all of the factors that could cause actual results or events to differ from our expectations. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
