Factors at Play

TD SYNNEX’s third-quarter revenues are likely to have been negatively impacted by softening IT spending as enterprises are postponing large IT spending plans due to a weakening global economy amid ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical issues.

Weak demand for the company’s Endpoint Solutions amid softness in PC demand post-pandemic might have hurt its third-quarter performance. However, increasing sales across the Advanced Solutions portfolio and high-growth technologies, with demand driven by cloud and data center-related technologies, are anticipated to have partially offset the softness in Endpoint Solutions sales.

The increased usage of online and e-commerce services, along with the hybrid working trend, has been stoking the demand for cloud storage. Therefore, data center operators are enhancing their capacities to accommodate the demand spike for cloud services. This is likely to have aided SNX’s data center servers and storage solution businesses in the fiscal third quarter.

However, the higher interest rate is expected to have negatively impacted TD SYNNEX’s bottom-line performance. The company’s second-quarter non-GAAP earnings per share plunged 10.7% year over year, primarily due to lower revenues and a $26-million headwind from higher interest expenses.
