Item 1―Financial Statements
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1–Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of PC Connection, Inc. and its subsidiaries, or the Company, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, regarding interim financial reporting and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. Such principles were applied on a basis consistent with the accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods reported and of the Company’s financial condition as of the date of the interim balance sheet. The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of issuance of these financial statements. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 may not be indicative of the results expected for any succeeding quarter or the entire year ending December 31, 2025.
Certain amounts in the prior period’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts and disclosures of revenue and expenses during the period. Management bases its estimates and judgments on the information available at the time and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. By nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Investments
The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of the Company’s cash equivalents approximates fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
At the time of purchase, the Company determines the appropriate classification of investments based upon its intent with regard to such investments. All of the Company’s investments are classified as available-for-sale. The Company classifies investments as short-term when their remaining contractual maturities are one year or less from the balance sheet date, and as long-term when the investment has a remaining contractual maturity of more than one year from the balance sheet date. The Company records investments at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Included in interest income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income is interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments of $3,801 and $4,565 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Treasury Stock, at Cost
The total repurchases for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were recorded as treasury stock of $45,162 and $188, respectively. Such costs reflect the applicable one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 on the net value of certain stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022.
On April 30, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a $50,000 increase to the share repurchase program, which was incremental to the approximately $14,919 remaining as of March 31, 2025.
Severance Expenses
The severance expenses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were related to an involuntary reduction in the Company’s workforce to lower the Company’s cost structure and included cash severance and other related termination benefits. The majority of these costs are expected to be paid within a year of termination. Included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 was $2,858 related to unpaid severance expenses.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This guidance is intended to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures through, among other things, enhancement of the disclosure requirements within the rate reconciliation, as well as increased income tax disaggregation disclosures. This ASU is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This guidance is intended to provide more detailed disclosure about certain costs and expenses presented in the income statement, including inventory purchases, employee compensation, selling expenses, and depreciation expense. This ASU is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2027, and for interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
Note 2–Revenue
The Company disaggregates revenue from its arrangements with customers by type of products and services, as it believes this method best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
The following tables represent a disaggregation of revenue from arrangements with customers for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, along with the segment for each category (in thousands).

Investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; investments with maturities of greater than 90 days from the date of purchase but less than one year are generally classified as short-term investments; and investments with maturities of one year or greater from the date of purchase are generally classified as long-term investments. All short-term investments had stated maturity dates of less than one year. The Company has recorded the securities at fair value on its condensed consolidated balance sheets and unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amount of realized gains and losses reclassified into earnings and the related adjustments to deferred taxes are based on the specific identification of the securities sold or securities that reached maturity date.
The Company measures certain financial assets at fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s investments were all measured using level 1 inputs.
Note 4–Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental shares attributable to non-vested stock units and stock options outstanding, if dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands, except per share data):

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no outstanding non-vested stock units that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
Note 5–Leases

Note 7–Segment Information
The internal reporting structure used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or CODM, to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for the Company’s operating segments. The Company’s operations are organized under three reporting segments—the Enterprise Solutions segment, which serves primarily medium-to-large corporations; the Business Solutions segment, which serves primarily small- to medium-sized businesses; and the Public Sector Solutions segment, which serves primarily federal, state, and local government and educational institutions. In addition, the Headquarters/Other provides services in areas such as finance, human resources, IT, marketing, and product management. Most of the operating costs associated with the Headquarters/Other functions are charged to the operating segments based on their estimated usage of the underlying functions. The Company reports these charges to the operating segments as “Allocations”. Headquarters/Other amounts that are not allocated to the operating segments are shown as reconciling items in the tables below.
The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer, and he assesses the segments’ performance by using each segments’ operating income (which includes certain corporate overhead allocations attributable to each of the segments). Net sales presented below exclude inter-segment product revenues. The CODM uses operating income for each segment in the annual budget, periodic forecasting, and quarterly results processes.

The assets of the Company’s three operating segments presented above consist primarily of accounts receivable, net intercompany receivables, goodwill, and other intangibles, net. Assets reported under the Headquarters/Other are managed by corporate headquarters, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, inventories, property and equipment, ROU assets, and intercompany balance, net. As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, total assets for the Headquarters/Other were presented net of intercompany balance eliminations of $61,063 and $15,039, respectively. The Company’s capital expenditures consist largely of IT hardware and software purchased to maintain or upgrade its management information systems. These information systems serve all of the Company’s segments, to varying degrees, and accordingly, the CODM does not evaluate capital expenditures on a segment-by-segment basis.

Note 8–Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen during the ordinary course of business. The outcomes of such matters are not expected to have a material, adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and/or cash flows.
The Company is subject to audits by states on sales and income taxes, employment matters, and other assessments. Additional liabilities for these and other audits could be assessed, but such outcomes are not expected to have a material, adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and/or cash flows.
Note 9–Bank Borrowings
The Company previously had a $50,000 credit facility collateralized by its account receivables that expired March 31, 2025 that the Company elected not to renew or replace. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility bore interest at the daily Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index, or BSBY Rate, plus a spread based on the Company’s funded debt ratio, or in the absence of BSBY Rate, the prime rate (7.50% at March 31, 2025).
Cash receipts were automatically applied against any outstanding borrowings. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company borrowed incremental amounts that were each repaid in full. These borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 totaled $732 and $8,349, respectively; however, at no time were the outstanding borrowings greater than the $50,000 limit under the credit facility. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility immediately prior to the expiration of the credit facility, or as of March 31, 2024.
Note 10–Supplier Finance Programs
The Company has agreements with third-party financial institutions, instituted by request of participating suppliers, that allow for the ability to finance payment obligations from the Company. The third-party financial institutions have separate arrangements with the Company’s suppliers and provide them with the option to request early payment for invoices confirmed by the Company. The Company does not determine the terms or conditions of the arrangements between the third-parties and its suppliers and receives no compensation from the third-party financial institutions. The Company’s obligation to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the suppliers’ decisions to finance amounts under the arrangements. The payment terms under these arrangements are typical with industry standards and range from 30 to 50 days. The agreements with the financial institutions are collateralized by the inventory purchased through the financing agreements. The Company’s outstanding payment obligations under the supplier finance programs, which are included in accounts payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, were $50,668 and $47,763 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The rollforward of the Company’s outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under the supplier finance programs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 is as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance and include statements concerning, among other things, our future financial results, business plans (including statements regarding new products and services we may offer and future expenditures, costs and investments), liabilities, impairment charges, competition, and the expected impact of current macroeconomic conditions on our businesses and results of operations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. These statements reflect our current views and are based on assumptions as of the date of this report. Such assumptions are based upon internal estimates and other analyses of current market conditions and trends, management expectations, plans, and strategies, economic conditions, and other factors. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from expectations or results projected or implied by forward-looking statements.
Such differences may result from actions taken by us, including expense reduction or strategic initiatives (including reductions in force, capital investments and new or expanded product offerings or services), the execution of our business plans (including our inventory management, cost structure and management and other personnel decisions) or other business decisions, as well as from developments beyond our control, including:
Additional factors include those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, including under the captions “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Business,” in our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, including under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and in the other subsequent filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
A forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated, to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the statements are made except as required by law.
Unless the context otherwise requires, we use the terms “Connection”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to refer to PC Connection, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
OVERVIEW
We are a Fortune 1000 Global Solutions Provider that simplifies the IT customer experience, guiding the connection between people and technology. Our dedicated account managers partner with customers to design, deploy, and support cutting-edge IT environments using the latest hardware, software, and services. We provide a wide range of IT solutions, from the desktop to the cloud—including computer systems, data center solutions, software and peripheral equipment, networking communications, and other products and accessories that we purchase from manufacturers, distributors, and other suppliers. Our Technology Solutions Organization, or TSO, and state-of-the-art Technology Integration and Distribution Center with ISO 9001:2015 certified technical configuration lab offer end-to-end services related to the design, configuration, and implementation of IT solutions. Our team also provides a comprehensive portfolio of managed services and professional services. These services are performed by our personnel and by third-party providers. Our GlobalServe offering ensures worldwide coverage for our multinational customers, delivering global procurement solutions through our network of in-country suppliers in over 150 countries.
The “Connection®” brand includes Connection Enterprise Solutions, Connection Business Solutions, and Connection Public Sector Solutions, which provide IT solutions and services to enterprise, small- to medium-sized businesses, and public sector markets.
Financial results for each of our segments are included in the financial statements attached hereto. We generate sales through (i) outbound inside sales and field sales contacts by sales representatives focused on the business, educational, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and government markets, (ii) our websites, and (iii) direct responses from customers responding to our advertising media. We offer a broad selection of over 460,000 products at competitive prices, including products from vendors like Apple, Cisco, Dell Inc., Hewlett-Packard Inc., Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Intel, Lenovo, Microsoft Corporation, and VMware, and we partner with more than 2,500 suppliers. We are able to leverage our state-of-the art logistic capabilities to rapidly ship product to customers.
As a value-added reseller in the IT supply chain, we do not manufacture IT hardware or software products. We are dependent on our suppliers—manufacturers and distributors that historically have only sold to resellers rather than directly to end users. However, certain manufacturers have, on multiple occasions, sold or attempted to sell directly to our customers, and in some cases, have restricted our ability to sell their products directly to certain customers, thereby attempting to and, in some cases successfully, eliminate our role. We believe that the success of these direct sales efforts by manufacturers will depend on their ability to meet our customers’ ongoing demands and provide solutions to meet their needs. We believe more of our customers are seeking out comprehensive and integrated IT solutions, rather than the ability to acquire specific IT products on a one-off basis. Our advantage is our ability to be product-neutral and provide a broader combination of products, services, and advice tailored to our customers’ individual needs. By providing customers with customized solutions from a variety of manufacturers, we believe we can mitigate the negative impact of continued direct sales initiatives from individual manufacturers. Through the formation of our TSO, we are able to provide customers complete IT solutions, from identifying their needs, to designing, developing, and managing the integration of products and services to implement their IT projects. Such service offerings carry higher margins than traditional product sales. Additionally, the technical certifications of our service engineers permit us to offer higher-end, more complex products that generally carry higher gross margins. We expect these service offerings and technical certifications to continue to play a role in sales generation and gross margin improvements in this competitive environment.
The primary challenges we continue to face in effectively managing our business are (1) increasing our product and service revenues while at the same time improving our gross margin in all three segments, (2) recruiting, retaining, and improving the productivity of our sales and technical support personnel, and (3) effectively controlling our selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses while making major investments in our IT systems and solution selling personnel, especially in relation to changing revenue levels.
To support future growth, we have invested and expect to continue to invest in our IT solutions business, which requires the addition of highly skilled service engineers. Although we expect to realize the ultimate benefit of higher-margin service revenues under this multi-year initiative, we believe that our cost of services will increase as we add additional service engineers. If our service revenues do not grow enough to offset the cost of these headcount additions, our operating results may be negatively impacted.
15
Market conditions and technology advances significantly affect the demand for our products and services. Virtual delivery of software products and advanced Internet technology providing customers enhanced functionality have substantially increased customer expectations, requiring us to invest on an ongoing basis in our own IT infrastructure to meet these new demands.
Our investments in IT infrastructure are designed to enable us to operate more efficiently and provide our customers enhanced functionality.
The new U.S. administration has announced or imposed a series of tariffs on U.S. trading partners. In response, several countries have threatened or imposed retaliatory measures. The imposition of new tariffs or increases in existing tariffs on goods imported from countries where our suppliers operate could result in increased inventory costs. These cost increases may reduce our margins or require us to raise prices. We continue to assess the impact of the tariffs on our supply chain. In addition, these actions and threatened actions and increased volatility in financial markets may affect customer decisions about the timing or size of IT investments.

2.1
Net sales of $701.0 million for the first quarter of 2025 reflect an increase of $69.0 million, or 10.9% compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases in net sales of notebooks/mobility, desktops, software, and servers/storage of $36.2 million, $25.2 million, $11.0 million, and $7.6 million, respectively, as shown in the table in Note 2 “Revenue” in the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in net sales of displays and sound of $10.8 million. Gross profit for the first quarter of 2025 increased year-over-year by $9.2 million, or 7.8%, to $127.3 million as illustrated in the table and the discussion beginning on page 18 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Gross margin decreased to 18.2% from 18.7% a year ago. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by a shift in product mix to lower-margin sales of endpoint devices including notebooks/mobility and desktops as shown in the table in Note 2 “Revenue” in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the product mix table on page 17. SG&A expenses increased year-over-year by $5.3 million, or 5.0%, to $109.9 million. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 15.7% compared to 16.6% a year ago. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily due to increases in personnel costs related to an increase in variable compensation, service contracts/subscriptions, and marketing as shown in the table on page 17 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Operating income for the first quarter of 2025 increased year-over-year in dollars by $1.0 million and remained consistent as a percentage of net sales. The increase in dollars is primarily a result of the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in SG&A expenses as discussed above, as well as severance expenses incurred for the first quarter of 2025.

Severance expenses for the first quarter of 2025 were $2.9 million. The severance expenses were related to an involuntary reduction in our workforce to lower our cost structure and included cash severance and other related termination benefits. There were no severance expenses incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Income from operations for the first quarter of 2025 increased to $14.5 million, compared to $13.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increases in SG&A expenses and severance expenses, as discussed above. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales was 2.1% for the first quarter of 2025, which was consistent with the prior year quarter.
Interest income, net for the first quarter of 2025 decreased to $3.9 million, compared to $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a decrease in interest income of $0.7 million. The decrease in interest income is primarily a result of lower realized interest rates in the current period.
Income taxes. Our provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2025 increased to $5.0 million, compared to $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2024. Our effective tax rate was 27.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to 27.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Net income for the first quarter of 2025 increased to $13.5 million, compared to $13.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the increase in income from operations, partially offset by the decrease in interest income, net, as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds from operations and short-term investments. We have historically used and expect to use in the future those funds to meet our capital requirements, which consist primarily of working capital for operational needs, capital expenditures for computer equipment and software used in our business, repurchases of our common stock for treasury, dividend payments, and as opportunities arise, possible acquisitions of new businesses.
We believe that funds generated from operations and short-term investments will be sufficient to finance our working capital, capital expenditures, and other requirements for at least the next twelve calendar months and beyond such twelve calendar month period. Our investments in IT systems and infrastructure are designed to enable us to operate more efficiently and to provide our customers enhanced functionality.
We expect to meet our cash requirements for the next twelve months and beyond through a combination of cash on hand, short-term investments, and cash generated from operations, as follows:
Our ability to continue funding our planned growth, both internally and externally, is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to obtain additional funds through equity or debt financing, or from other sources of financing, as may be required. While we do not anticipate needing any additional sources of financing to fund our operations at this time, if demand for IT products declines, or our customers are materially adversely impacted by the developing macroeconomic trends characterized by inflation and increased interest rates, our cash flows from operations may be substantially affected.

On April 30, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock of $0.15 per share. The dividend will be paid on May 30, 2025 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 13, 2025. The declaration and payment of any future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our financial position, strategic plans, general business conditions and any other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.
Summary of Sources and Uses of Cash
Cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, as reflected in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are summarized in the following table (in millions):
(52.4)
57.3
104.7
(51.6)
(48.2)
(3.1)
4.1
Cash used in operating activities was $52.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from an increase in inventory of $56.7 million and a decrease in accounts payable of $27.0 million. These outflows were partially offset by $13.5 million of net income, positive net adjustments to net income of $5.6 million, an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $7.8 million, and a decrease in accounts receivable of $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in inventory was primarily attributable to inventory purchases related to large customer rollouts and management associated with anticipated tariffs. The decrease in accounts payable was primarily driven by the timing of payments. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash provided by operating activities resulted primarily from net income adjusted for non-cash charges of $16.3 million, a decrease in accounts receivable of $79.3 million, and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $6.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $45.1 million.
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:
(in days)
Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1)
72
70
Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2)
22
Days of purchases outstanding (DPO)(3)
(43)
(39)
Cash conversion cycle
53
The cash conversion cycle remained consistent at 53 days at March 31, 2025 and 2024. The increase in DSO is primarily due to the increase in trade receivables as of March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024. The increase in DIO is primarily due to the increase in inventory as of March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024. The increase in DPO is primarily due to the increase in accounts payable as of March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024.
Cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted of $52.4 million of purchases of U.S. Government treasury securities, $108.8 million of sales of U.S. Government treasury securities, $50.0 million of maturities of U.S. Government treasury securities, and $1.7 million of purchases of property and equipment. These property and equipment expenditures were primarily for computer equipment and capitalized internally developed software in connection with investments in our IT infrastructure. In the prior year period, investing activities consisted of $100.0 million of purchases of U.S. Government treasury securities, $50.0 million of maturities of U.S. Government treasury securities, and $1.6 million of purchases of property and equipment.
Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted of $0.7 million of aggregate borrowings and repayments, $43.7 million of treasury purchases, $3.9 million of dividend payments, and $0.5 million of payments of payroll taxes on stock-based compensation through shares withheld. In the prior year period, financing activities primarily consisted of $8.3 million of aggregate borrowings and repayments, $0.2 million of treasury purchases, $2.6 million of dividend payments, and $0.2 million of payments of payroll taxes on stock-based compensation through shares withheld.
Debt Instruments, Contractual Agreements, and Related Covenants
Below is a summary of certain provisions of our credit facility and other contractual obligations. For more information about our obligations, commitments, and contingencies, see our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Credit Facility. Our credit facility collateralized by our accounts receivable expired March 31, 2025. We did not elect to extend or replace this credit facility given our significant cash, cash equivalent, and short-term investment balances. Amounts outstanding under this credit facility bore interest at the greatest of (i) the prime rate (7.50% at March 31, 2025), (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% per annum, and (iii) the daily BSBY Rate, plus 1.00% per annum, but at no time less than 0% per annum. While we used this credit facility from time to time, we did not have borrowings outstanding at any recent quarter-end nor immediately prior to the expiration of the credit facility.
Cash receipts were automatically applied against any outstanding borrowings. Any excess cash on account could either remain on account to generate earned credits to offset up to 100% of cash management fees, or be invested in short-term qualified investments. Borrowings under the credit facility were classified as current in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Supplier Finance Programs. We have entered into agreements with financial institutions to facilitate the purchase of inventory from designated suppliers under certain terms and conditions to enhance liquidity. We do not incur any interest or other incremental expenses associated with these agreements as balances are paid when they are due. See “Note 10 “Supplier Finance Programs” of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Operating Leases. We lease facilities from a related party, which is a company affiliated with us through common ownership, and facilities from third parties under non-cancelable operating leases. Certain leases require us to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance charges. See “Item 2. Properties” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information regarding our operating leases.
Factors Affecting Sources of Liquidity
Internally Generated Funds. The key factors affecting our internally generated funds are our ability to manage costs and fully achieve our operating efficiencies, timely collection of our customer receivables, and management of our inventory levels.
Credit Facility. Our credit facility collateralized by our accounts receivable expired March 31, 2025 and we elected not to renew or replace the credit facility given our significant cash, cash equivalent, and short-term investment balances.
Capital Markets. Our ability to raise additional funds in the capital market depends upon, among other things, general economic conditions, the condition of the IT industry, our financial performance and stock price, and the state of the capital markets. In addition, market volatility, inflation and interest rate fluctuations may increase our cost of financing or restrict our access to potential sources of future liquidity.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not materially changed from those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently issued financial accounting standards are detailed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” in the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For a description of our market risks, see Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. No material changes related to our market risks have occurred since December 31, 2024.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as described above. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
