Arrow Electronics reported Q2 revenue of $10.0 billion, up 32% year over year, with non-GAAP EPS of $5.45 driven by unit volume growth, price inflation and higher-margin value-added services. Non-GAAP operating margin expanded 120 basis points to 4% as global components and ECS both contributed to performance; backlog and book-to-bill remained above parity, giving visibility into 2027. The company expects Q3 revenue of $9.6–10.2 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $4.83–5.03, while noting a $27 million ECS charge related to a partner contract restructuring and forecasting normalized supply-chain services profit next quarter. Management emphasized continued investment in AI, cloud and value-added services, improved cash generation and a disciplined capital allocation approach, and announced Dee Merriweather as incoming president and COO. » Plus sur finance.yahoo.com

In addition, Deidra Merriwether was appointed president and COO effective Sept. 8. » Plus sur de.investing.com
