- Xvantage platform driving measurable benefits: time spent up 40% YoY, average order value up 12%, and IDA generating ~$1 billion in net revenue (7% of total).
- Adjusted operating income grew nearly 40% YoY, with operating leverage improving 47 basis points, driven by automation and efficiency gains.
- Strategic partnerships expanding, including HPE selecting Ingram Micro as one of two global distribution partners, validating the company's scale and capabilities.

- Strong balance sheet with net debt-to-EBITDA at 2.0x, improved working capital days by 3 days, and adjusted ROIC up 240 basis points YoY.
- Gross margin pressure from GPU/AI infrastructure deals, which are lower-margin fulfillment business, though they are working capital efficient.
- Asia Pacific region, now 30% of net sales, has a lower gross margin (4.47%) compared to the rest of the world (7.53%), impacting overall margins.
- Adjusted free cash flow was an outflow of $527 million in Q2, driven by higher working capital investment and strategic inventory purchases ahead of ASP increases.
- Supply constraints and ASP increases are expected to continue, with a 2-3% net revenue benefit in Q3 but also potential demand elasticity and longer lead times.
- Ongoing Middle East conflict is expected to have a $0.01-$0.02 EPS impact in Q3, adding to operational uncertainty.
- Q3 EPS guidance midpoint ($0.77) implies a sequential decline from Q2's $0.82, reflecting mixed factors and continued investment.
- Platinum's ownership reduced by 13% since March due to secondary offerings, which may create overhang on the stock.
