Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 5, 2016, ScanSource, Inc. (the “Company”) agreed to acquire substantially all the assets of Intelisys Communications, Inc. (“Intelisys”). Intelisys is a technology services distributor with voice, data, access, cable, collaboration, wireless, cloud and similar services.

Subject to customary post-closing working capital adjustments, the purchase price consists of (i) $83.6 million to be paid in cash at closing ($8.36 million of which will be held in escrow to support the post-closing obligations of the sellers), and (ii) annual earn-out payments based upon the performance of the business during the four-year period following the closing. The total earn-out payments are estimated to be in the range of $100 million to $150 million, depending on the performance of the business.

The acquisition agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants from the sellers for a transaction of this type. Intelisys and certain shareholders have agreed to indemnify the Company against certain liabilities, subject to amount limits and other exceptions. The acquisition agreement further provides that Intelisys and its subsidiaries will be restricted from engaging in certain competitive activities or from soliciting certain employees.

The acquisition is expected to close following the satisfaction of, and subject to, customary conditions, including the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the receipt of certain third party consents.

On August 8, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing its updated net sales forecast for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016.

A copy of the Company’s press release related to the acquisition and the updated net sales forecast for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The financial information contained in Exhibit 99.1 is unaudited and subject to change as part of the audit process and should be read in conjunction with the Registrant’s annual and quarterly reports and other information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This report includes forward looking statements regarding the closing of the acquisition, the range for the estimated earn-out payments, and the updated net sales forecast for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016. Actual results may differ materially from those suggested by these statements for a number of reasons, including the need for closing conditions to be fulfilled, regulatory requirements, and the performance of the business following the acquisition. The performance of the business following acquisition could be impacted by a number of factors, including general economic conditions impacting demand and pricing, competitive efforts by other providers impacting demand and pricing, and technological advances.

The information contained in Item 2.02 of this Report, including the portion of Exhibit 99.1 relating to the Company’s updated net sales forecast for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
