Depending on the terms of the contracts with certain customers, the Company may receive payments from customers before the goods or services are delivered, typically as down payments for products to be delivered in the future. These amounts are recorded as contract liabilities (deferred revenue), as the performance obligations have not yet been satisfied. The Company’s contract assets consist of unbilled amounts resulting from contracts for which revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method, and for which revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded working capital adjustments related to the Kopar acquisition, which increased the purchase price by $645, decreased the fair value of net tangible assets acquired by $290, and increased goodwill by $935. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded working capital adjustments related to the TMS acquisition, which decreased the purchase price by $475, increased the fair value of net tangible assets acquired by $91, and decreased goodwill by $566. Further, during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded purchase accounting and working capital adjustments related to the Hydradyne acquisition, which increased the purchase price by $6,045, decreased the fair value of net assets acquired by $1,751, increased net intangible assets by $410, and increased goodwill by $7,386.

The Company has eight (8) reporting units for which an annual goodwill impairment assessment was performed as of January 1, 2025. Based on the assessment performed, the Company concluded that the fair value of all of the reporting units exceeded their carrying amount as of January 1, 2025, therefore no impairment exists.

At ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, accumulated goodwill impairment losses subsequent to fiscal ~~year~~ 2002 totaled $64,794 related to the Service Center ~~Based Distribution~~ segment and $167,605 related to the Engineered Solutions segment.

Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan

In December 2021, the Company entered into a five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility provides a $900,000 unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $500,000. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at either the base rate plus a margin that ranges from 0 to 55 basis points based on the Company's net leverage ratio or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a margin that ranges from 80 to 155 basis points based on the Company's net leverage ratio. Borrowing capacity under this facility, without exercising the accordion feature, totaled $515,~~800~~748 and $515,791 at ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively, and is available to fund future acquisitions or other capital and operating requirements. These amounts are net of outstanding letters of credit of $~~200~~252 and $209 at ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively, to secure certain insurance obligations. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 5.2206% and 65.2423% as of ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively.

14Additionally, the Company had letters of credit outstanding not associated with the revolving credit agreement, in the amount of $5,336 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, to secure certain insurance obligations.

On October 24, 2025, the Company entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The new revolving credit facility provides a $900,000 unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $800,000. The new revolving credit facility also provides for a $25,000 sublimit for swing line loans and a $50,000 sublimit for letters of credit.

Trade Receivable Securitization Facility

In August 2018, the Company established a trade receivable securitization facility (the “AR Securitization Facility”). The AR Securitization Facility effectively increases the Company’s borrowing capacity by collateralizing a portion of the amount of the U.S. operations’ trade accounts receivable. The Company uses the proceeds from the AR Securitization Facility as an alternative to other forms of debt. The AR Securitization Facility's maximum borrowing capacity is $250,000 and fees on amounts borrowed are 0.90% per year. Borrowing capacity is further subject to changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels or certain characteristics of the accounts receivable portfolio and, therefore, at certain times, we may not be able to fully access the $250,000 of borrowing capacity available under the AR Securitization Facility. Borrowings under the AR Securitization Facility carry variable interest rates tied to SOFR. The interest rate on the AR Securitization Facility as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025 was 5.06% and 5.32%, respectively. On July 10, 2025, the Company amended the AR Securitization Facility and extended the term to July 10, 2028.

Additionally, the Company had letters of credit outstanding not associated with the revolving credit agreement, in the amount of $5,336 and $4,046 as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, in order to secure certain insurance obligations.

Trade Receivable Securitization Facility

In August 2018, the Company established a trade receivable securitization facility (AR Securitization Facility). The AR Securitization Facility effectively increases the Company’s borrowing capacity by collateralizing a portion of the amount of the U.S. operations’ trade accounts receivable. The Company uses the proceeds from the AR Securitization Facility as an alternative to other forms of debt, effectively reducing borrowing costs. The AR Securitization Facility's maximum borrowing capacity is $250,000, fees on amounts borrowed are 0.90% per year, and the facility terminates on August 4, 2026. Borrowing capacity is further subject to changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels or certain characteristics of the accounts receivable portfolio and, therefore, at certain times, we may not be able to fully access the $250,000 of borrowing capacity available under the AR Securitization Facility. Borrowings under the AR Securitization Facility carry variable interest rates tied to SOFR. The interest rate on the AR Securitization Facility as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was 5.32% and 6.35%, respectively.

Unsecured Shelf Facility

At March 31, 2025 the Company had no remaining borrowings outstanding under its unsecured shelf facility agreement with Prudential Investment Management. Fees on this facility ranged from 0.25% to 1.25% per year based on the Company's leverage ratio at each quarter end. The “Series E” notes carried a fixed interest rate of 3.08%, and the remaining principal balance of $25,000 was paid in October 2024.

Other Long-Term Borrowing

In 2014, the Company assumed $2,359 of debt as a part of the headquarters facility acquisition. The 1.50% fixed interest rate note, held by the State of Ohio Development Services Agency, was fully paid in November 2024.

6. DERIVATIVES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.

In January 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to mitigate variability in forecasted interest payments on $463,000 of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured variable rate debt. The notional amount declined over time to $384,000 as principal payments were made. The interest rate swap effectively converts a portion of the floating rate interest payment into a fixed rate interest payment. The Company designated the interest rate swap as a pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap instrument and is accounting for this derivative as a cash flow hedge. During fiscal 2021, the Company completed a transaction to amend and extend the interest rate swap agreement which resulted in an extension of the maturity date to January 31, 2026. The pay-fixed interest rate swap is considered a hybrid instrument with a financing component and an embedded at-market derivative that was designated as a cash flow hedge. The weighted average fixed pay rate is 1.58% and the interest rate swap is indexed to SOFR. The Company made various accounting elections related to changes in critical terms of the hedging relationship due to reference rate reform to preserve the hedging relationship.

15The interest rate swap converted $384,000 of variable rate debt to a rate of 2.48% as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025. The fair value (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy) of the interest rate cash flow hedge was $2,974 and $5,503 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively, which is included in other current assets and other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Amounts reclassified from other comprehensive loss, before tax, to interest (income) expense, net was income of $3,734 and $4,691 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Marketable securities measured at fair value at ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025 totaled $2327,~~421~~620 and $2225,~~519~~628, respectively. The majority of these marketable securities are held in a rabbi trust for a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. The marketable securities are included in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and their fair values were determined using quoted market prices (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy). In addition, the Company holds Corporate-Owned Life Insurance (COLI) policies on certain retired employees, which are valued at the cash surrender value of the policies (Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy). The fair value of the COLI policies totaled $20,947 and $20,817, at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively, and are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The revolving credit facility and the AR Securitization Facility contain variable interest rates and their carrying values approximate fair value (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy). The carrying value of our cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

189. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company's reportable segments are: Service Center and Engineered Solutions. These reportable segments contain the Company's various operating segments which have been aggregated based upon similar economic and operating characteristics. The Service Center segment operates through local service centers and distribution centers with a focus on providing products and services addressing the maintenance and repair of production equipment and motion control infrastructure. Products primarily include industrial bearings, motors, belting, drives, couplings, pumps, linear motion products, hydraulic and pneumatic components, filtration supplies, and hoses, as well as other related supplies for general operational needs of customers’ machinery and equipment. The Engineered Solutions segment includes our operations that specialize in distributing, engineering, designing, integrating, and repairing hydraulic and pneumatic fluid power technologies, engineered flow control products and services, and automation technologies. The accounting policies of the Company’s reportable segments are as described in Note 1.

The Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the chief executive officer. The CODM uses Segment Operating Income as the measure of segment profit and loss in measuring segment performance, determining how to allocate the Company's assets, evaluating performance in periodic reviews, and during the development of the annual budget and the regular forecasting process. The chief operating decision maker considers budget-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis, as well as segment-specific forecasting, when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM also uses the segment's net sales in measuring segment performance.

In addition to the two reportable segments, there is a category of certain business activities and expenses, referred to as corporate & other, that does not constitute an operating segment. Corporate & other expense, net includes the cost of our corporate headquarters and corporate functions, primarily compensation and benefits, and related administrative expenses and other expenses not directly associated with any reportable segment. These corporate and other expenses reconcile segment operating income to total consolidated income before income taxes.

During the ~~third~~first quarter of fiscal ~~2025~~2026, business was conducted in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Costa Rica from ~~619~~594 facilities.

The following is Management's Discussion and Analysis of significant factors which ~~have~~ affected our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of consolidated income, consolidated comprehensive income and consolidated cash flows. When reviewing the discussion and analysis set forth below, please note that the ~~majority~~stock ofkeeping ~~SKUs~~units (~~Stock Keeping Units~~"SKUs") we sell in any given period ~~are~~may not necessarily be sold in the comparable period of the prior year, resulting in the inability to quantify certain commonly used comparative metrics analyzing sales, such as changes in product mix and volume.

Overview

Consolidated sales for the quarter ended ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 increased $20100.36 million or 19.82% compared to the prior year quarter, with acquisitions ~~contributing~~increasing to sales ~~growth~~ by $7569.7 million or 6.63%, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $100.19 million reducing sales by 0.91%. ~~The~~Operating ~~Company had operating income of $129.4 million, or operating~~ margin ofwas 1110.18% of sales for the quarter ended ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 compared to ~~an operating income of $121.2 million, or operating margin of~~ 10.63% of sales for the same quarter in the prior year.

Sales in our U.S. operations were up $15.1 million or 1.5%, as acquisitions added $65.5 million or 6.4%. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired, sales in the United States were down $50.4 million or 4.9%, driven by a 4.1% decrease from operations due to lower demand, in addition to a decrease of 0.8% due to the change in sales days. Sales from our Canadian operations decreased $1.9 million or 2.5%. Unfavorable foreign currency translation reduced Canadian sales by $4.5 million or 6.2%. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, Canadian sales increased $2.6 million or 3.7%, driven by an increase of 5.3% from operations due to higher demand, offset by a decrease of 1.6% due to the change in sales days. Sales in other countries increased $7.1 million or 12.7% from the prior year quarter, primarily due to acquisitions contributing $10.2 million or 18.3% along with an increase from operations of $2.5 million or 4.4%, offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $5.6 million or 10.0%.

Our gross profit margin was 30.5% in the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to 29.5% in the prior year quarter. The gross profit margin for the current year quarter was positively impacted by 22 basis points due to a $2.6 million decrease in LIFO expense as compared to the prior year quarter, in addition to a positive impact from recent acquisitions and ongoing margin expansion initiatives.

The following table shows the changes in selling, distribution and administrative expense (SD&A) (amounts in millions).

SD&A	$	225.9	$	217.0	$	8.9	$	25.9	$	(2.0)	$	(15.0)

SD&A consists of associate compensation, benefits and other expenses associated with selling, purchasing, warehousing, supply chain management and providing marketing and distribution of the Company's products, as well as costs associated with a variety of administrative functions such as human resources, information technology, treasury, accounting, insurance, legal, and facility related expenses. SD&A was 19.4% of sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to 18.9% in the prior year quarter, an increase of $8.9 million or 4.1% compared to the prior year quarter. SD&A from businesses acquired added $24.5 million or 11.3% of SD&A expenses, including $3.7 million of intangibles amortization related to acquisitions. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates reduced SD&A during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 by $2.0 million or 0.9% compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of businesses acquired and the favorable currency translation impact, SD&A decreased $13.6 million or 6.3% during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year quarter, as total compensation decreased $13.5 million primarily due to cost controls, efficiency gains, and lower incentive compensation based on company performance. All other expenses within SD&A were down $0.1 million.

Operating income increased $8.2 million or 6.8% over the prior year period. As a percent of sales, operating income increased to 11.1% during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 from 10.6% during the prior year quarter due to expanded gross profit, including from acquisitions, despite softer demand.

Operating income, as a percentage of sales for the Service Center Based Distribution segment, increased to 14.1% in the current year quarter from 12.7% in the prior year quarter. Operating income, as a percentage of sales for the Engineered Solutions segment, decreased to 13.3% in the current year quarter from 13.9% in the prior year quarter.

Other expense (income), net was expense of $1.3 million for the current year quarter, which primarily included net unfavorable foreign currency transaction losses of $1.0 million. During the prior year quarter, other expense (income), net was income of $1.7 million, which primarily included unrealized gains on investments held by non-qualified deferred compensation trusts of $1.6 million.

The effective income tax rate was 21.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to 20.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to a decrease in compensation-related deductions during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year quarter.

As a result of the factors addressed above, net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 increased $2.6 million or 2.7% compared to the prior year quarter. Diluted net income per share was $2.57 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2.48 per share in the prior year quarter, an increase of 3.6%.

The effective income tax rate was 22.1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 21.0% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the reversal of a tax valuation allowance related to Mexico during the prior year period. We expect our full year tax rate for fiscal 2025 to be in the 22.0% to 23.0% range.20

As a result of the factors addressed above, net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 increased $2.9 million or 1.0% compared to the prior year period.

The effective income tax rate was 21.6% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to 20.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate over the prior year is primarily due to a decrease in compensation-related deductions during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. We expect our full year tax rate for fiscal 2026 to be in the 23.0% to 24.0% range.

As a result of the factors addressed above, net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 increased $8.7 million or 9.5% compared to the prior year quarter. Diluted net income per share was $2.63 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to $2.36 per share in the prior year quarter, an increase of 11.4%.

Recent Developments

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted into law. The OBBBA makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, as amended, including 100% bonus depreciation, domestic research cost expensing, and the business interest expense limitation. ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. Consequently, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company evaluated all deferred tax balances under the newly enacted tax law and identified any other changes required to its financial statements as a result of the OBBBA. The provisions of the OBBBA did not have a material impact to our income tax expense or effective tax rate. We expect the provisions of the OBBBA to result in a reduction to our cash tax payments for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the OBBBA as additional guidance becomes available.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of capital is cash flow from operations, supplemented as necessary by bank borrowings or other sources of debt. AtWe ~~March 31, 2025, we~~ had total debt obligations outstanding of $572.3 million ~~compared~~at toboth ~~$597.4~~September 30, ~~million~~2025 atand June 30, ~~2024~~2025. Management expects that our existing cash, cash equivalents, funds available under the revolving credit facility, and cash provided from operations will be sufficient to finance normal working capital needs in each of the countries in which we operate, payment of dividends, acquisitions, investments in properties, facilities and equipment, debt service, and the purchase of additional Company common stock. Management also believes that additional long-term debt and line of credit financing could be obtained based on the Company's credit standing and financial strength.

Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan

In December 2021, the Company entered into a five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility provides a $900.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $500.0 million. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at either the base rate plus a margin that ranges from 0 to 55 basis points based on the Company's net leverage ratio or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a margin that ranges from 80 to 155 basis points based on the Company's net leverage ratio. Borrowing capacity under this facility, without exercising the accordion feature, totaled $515.7 million and $515.8 million at ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively, and is available to fund future acquisitions or other capital and operating requirements. These amounts are net of outstanding letters of credit of $0.3 million and $0.2 million at ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively, to secure certain insurance obligations. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 5.2206% and 65.2423% as of ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively.

Additionally, the Company had letters of credit outstanding not associated with the revolving credit agreement, in the amount of $5.3 million ~~and $4.0 million~~ as of ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025, ~~respectively, in order~~ to secure certain insurance obligations.

On October 24, 2025, the Company entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility with a group of banks to refinance the existing credit facility as well as provide funds for ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes. The new revolving credit facility provides a $900.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility and an uncommitted accordion feature which allows the Company to request an increase in the borrowing commitments, or incremental term loans, under the credit facility in aggregate principal amounts of up to $800.0 million. The new revolving credit facility also provides for a $25.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $50.0 million sublimit for letters of credit.

Trade Receivable Securitization Facility

In August 2018, the Company established a trade receivable securitization facility (the “AR Securitization Facility”). The AR Securitization Facility effectively increases the Company’s borrowing capacity by collateralizing a portion of the amount of the U.S. operations’ trade accounts receivable. The Company uses the proceeds from the AR Securitization Facility as an alternative to other forms of debt~~, effectively reducing borrowing costs~~. The AR Securitization Facility's maximum borrowing capacity is $250.0 million, and fees on amounts borrowed are 0.90% per year~~, and the facility terminates on August 4, 2026~~. Borrowing capacity is further subject to changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels or certain characteristics of the accounts receivable portfolio and, therefore, at certain times, we may not be able to fully access the $250.0 million of borrowing capacity available under the AR Securitization Facility. Borrowings under the AR Securitization Facility carry variable interest rates tied to SOFR. The interest rate on the AR Securitization Facility as of ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and June 30, ~~2024~~2025 was 5.3206% and 65.3532%, respectively. On July 10, 2025, the Company amended the AR Securitization Facility and extended the term to July 10, 2028.

~~Unsecured~~In ~~Shelf~~2019, ~~Facility~~the Company entered into an interest rate swap that expires in January 2026, which mitigates variability in forecasted interest payments on $384.0 million of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured variable rate debt. For more information, see Note 6, Derivatives, to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included in Item 1 under the caption “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.”

The credit facility and the unsecured shelf facility contain restrictive covenants regarding liquidity, net worth, financial ratios, and other covenants. At March 31, 2025, the most restrictive of these covenants required that the Company maintain net indebtedness less than 3.75 times consolidated income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined in these agreements). At March 31, 2025, the Company's net indebtedness was less than 0.5 times consolidated income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants at March 31, 2025.

Inventory Analysis

Inventories are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for U.S. inventories and the average cost method for foreign inventories. Management uses an inventory turnover ratio to monitor and evaluate inventory. Management calculates this ratio on an annual as well as a quarterly basis, and believes that using average costs to determine the inventory turnover ratio instead of LIFO costs provides a more useful analysis. The annualized inventory turnover based on average costs was 4.3 for the ~~periods~~period ended ~~March~~September 3130, 2025 and 4.4 for the period ended June 30, ~~2024~~2025.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cautionary Statement Under Private Securities Litigation Reform Act

Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains statements that are forward-looking based on management’s current expectations about the future. Forward-looking statements are often identified by qualifiers, such as “guidance”, “expect”, “believe”, “plan”, “intend”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “may”, "optimistic" and derivative or similar words or expressions. Similarly, descriptions of objectives, strategies, plans, or goals are also forward-looking statements. These statements may discuss, among other things, expected growth, future sales, future cash flows, future capital expenditures, future performance, and the anticipation and expectations of the Company and its management as to future occurrences and trends. The Company intends that the forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors established in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, and by the Securities and Exchange Commission in its rules, regulations and releases.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on current expectations regarding important risk factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements, and the making of those statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results expressed in the statements will be achieved. In addition, the Company assumes no obligation ~~publicly~~ to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information or events, or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Important risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following: risks relating to the operations levels of our customers and the economic factors that affect them; the impact that widespread illness, health epidemics, or general health concerns could have; inflationary or deflationary trends in the cost of products, energy, labor and other operating costs including tariffs, and changes in the prices for products and services relative to the cost of providing them; reduction in supplier inventory purchase incentives; loss of key supplier authorizations, lack of product availability (such as due to supply chain strains), changes in supplier distribution programs, inability of suppliers to perform, and transportation disruptions; changes in customer preferences for products and services of the nature and brands sold by us; changes in customer procurement policies and practices; competitive pressures; our reliance on information systems and risks relating to their proper functioning, the security of those systems, and the data stored in or transmitted through them; the impact of economic conditions on the collectability of trade receivables; reduced demand for our products in targeted markets due to reasons including consolidation in customer industries; our ability to retain and attract qualified sales and customer service personnel and other skilled executives, managers and professionals; our ability to identify and complete acquisitions, integrate them effectively, and realize their anticipated benefits; the variability, timing and nature of new business opportunities including acquisitions, alliances, customer relationships, and supplier authorizations; the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities in connection with acquisitions; our ability to access capital markets as needed on reasonable terms; disruption of operations at our headquarters or distribution centers; risks and uncertainties associated with our foreign operations, including volatile economic conditions, political instability, cultural and legal differences, and currency exchange fluctuations; the potential for goodwill and intangible asset impairment; changes in accounting policies and practices; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; organizational changes within the Company; risks related to legal proceedings to which we are a party; potentially adverse government regulation, legislation, or policies, both enacted and under consideration, including with respect to federal tax policy, international trade, data privacy and security, and government contracting; and the occurrence of extraordinary events (including prolonged labor disputes, power outages, telecommunication outages, terrorist acts, war, public health emergency, earthquakes, extreme weather events, other natural disasters, fires, floods, and accidents). Other factors and unanticipated events could also adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Risks can also change over time. Further, the disclosure of a risk should not be interpreted to imply that the risk has not already materialized.

We discuss certain of these matters and other risk factors more fully throughout this Form 10-Q as well as other of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, ~~2024~~2025.
