Net sales for the three-month period ended October 31, 2007 reached a third-quarter record of $5.9 billion, an increase of 9.1 percent from $5.4 billion in the prior-year period.

Third quarter net income totaled $40.9 million, or $.73 per diluted share compared to net income of $9.6 million, or $.18 per diluted share for the prior-year period. Results for the comparable third quarter of fiscal 2007 included $6.1 million of restructuring charges and $2.8 million of consulting costs related to the company’s European restructuring program which was completed in October 2006. Excluding these charges and costs, non-GAAP net income for the prior-year quarter ended October 31, 2006 totaled $18.0 million, or $.33 per diluted share.

“Steady market conditions during the quarter, coupled with Tech Data’s sales execution, SMB focus, and product and inventory management efforts, drove record third-quarter net sales and a significant improvement in operating income year-over-year. Our European operations continue to strengthen and gain traction in the marketplace, delivering a 47 basis point operating margin improvement over last year on a non-GAAP basis,”

said Robert M. Dutkowsky, Chief Executive Officer, Tech Data Corporation. “While there is still work to do as we improve upon our execution and profitability, we are pleased to see our European operations performing at or ahead of our expectations and delivering stronger working capital metrics. The third quarter was solid and I thank the entire Tech Data team for their continued diligence towards enhancing our profitability worldwide.”

Third-Quarter Financial Summary

• Net sales in the Americas (including the United States, Canada, Latin America and export sales to the Caribbean) were $2.9 billion, or 49 percent of worldwide net sales, representing an increase of 10.3 percent over the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and a decrease of .9 percent from the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Net sales in Europe totaled $3.0 billion, or 51 percent of worldwide net sales, representing an increase of 7.9 percent (1.7 percent decrease on a local currency basis) over the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and an increase of 12.5 percent (9.2 percent increase on a local currency basis) over the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

• Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was 4.79 percent compared to 4.56 percent in the prior-year third quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily attributable to solid improvements in the company’s pricing and inventory management practices in Europe as well as continued changes in customer and product mix worldwide.

• Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were $224.2 million or 3.78 percent of net sales compared to $209.3 million or 3.85 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. On a dollar basis, SG&A expenses increased to support sales growth and the company’s strategic initiatives. The stronger Euro and the related foreign currency translation impact also contributed to the increase in SG&A expenses year-over-year. As a percentage of net sales however, SG&A declined year-over-year primarily due to leverage achieved in Europe and the elimination of $2.8 million of expense incurred in the prior-year period for consulting costs associated with the European restructuring program.

• For the third quarter of fiscal 2008, operating income was $59.5 million, or 1.01 percent of net sales. This compared to operating income of $32.1 million, or .59 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2007, which included the restructuring charges and consulting costs noted above. Excluding these charges and costs, non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was $41.0 million or .76 percent of net sales.

• On a regional basis, operating income in the Americas for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was $44.2 million, or 1.54 percent of net sales compared to $40.1 million, or 1.54 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. In Europe, the company generated operating income of $17.8 million, or .58 percent of net sales compared to an operating loss of $(5.9) million, or (.21) percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Excluding the restructuring charges and consulting costs noted above, the European region reported non-GAAP operating income of $3.0 million, or .11 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Stock-based compensation expense is not included in the regional segment reporting results. These expenses are presented as a separate line item in the company’s segment reporting (see “Supplementary Information” table attached).

• The $(.9) million of minority interest in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 represents the company’s Brightstar Europe joint venture partner’s share of losses comprised primarily of start-up costs incurred during the quarter. The joint venture commenced sales in August 2007, but the company does not expect the joint venture to have a material impact in the current fiscal year.

• Cash used in operations during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 totaled $127.7 million. For the nine months ended October 31, 2007, the company generated $301.8 million in cash from operations. The company continues to enjoy excellent liquidity and financial flexibility with a cash position of $525.9 million at October 31, 2007.

Nine-month Results

Net sales for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2007 were $16.9 billion, an increase of 10.6 percent from $15.3 billion in the nine-month period ended October 31, 2006. On a regional basis, net sales in the Americas represented 49 percent of net sales, and increased 11.1 percent to $8.3 billion from $7.4 billion in the prior-year period. Europe represented 51 percent of net sales, and increased 10.1 percent (1.2 percent increase on a local currency basis) to $8.7 billion from $7.9 billion for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2006.

Gross margin for the nine-month period was 4.80 percent, up from 4.64 percent in the prior-year comparable period. The increase in gross margin was primarily attributable to improvements in the company’s pricing and inventory management practices in Europe.

For the nine-month period ended October 31, 2007, on a GAAP basis, the company recorded operating income of $115.9 million, or .68 percent of net sales, compared with an operating loss of $(69.7) million, or (.46) percent of net sales, in the prior-year period. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding a $13.1 million loss on disposal of subsidiaries related to the company’s decision to exit its operations in Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and $16.1 million in restructuring charges primarily related to the closure of a European logistics center, operating income for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2007 totaled $145.2 million, or .86 percent of net sales. This compared to non-GAAP operating income of $98.7 million, or .64 percent of net sales for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2006, excluding a non-cash charge of $136.1 million for goodwill impairment and $32.4 million in restructuring charges and consulting costs related to the European operations.

The company recorded net income on a GAAP basis of $58.1 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2007 compared to a net loss of $(133.0) million, or $(2.41) per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Net income for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2006 included $3.9 million in income from discontinued operations related to the sale of the European training business. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the loss on disposal of subsidiaries and restructuring charges noted above, net income was $86.6 million, or $1.56 per diluted share for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2007 compared to non-GAAP net income of $40.2 million, or $.73 per diluted share for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2006. Non-GAAP net income for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 excluded the goodwill impairment, restructuring charges and consulting costs noted above and an $8.4 million increase in the valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets.

Business Outlook

Statements made regarding the company’s business outlook are based on current expectations and the company’s internal plan. These statements are forward-looking and, as outlined in the company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, actual results may differ materially. For the fourth quarter ending January 31, 2008, the company anticipates net sales to be in the range of $6.35 billion to $6.50 billion. This assumes low double-digit year-over-year growth in the Americas and a mid-to-high single-digit decline in Europe on a local currency basis. The anticipated decline in Europe primarily reflects the continuation of the company’s strategy to reduce the level of retail business in its mix as well as the company’s decision to exit operations in Israel and the UAE during the current fiscal year. The company anticipates an effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 in the range of 30 percent to 32 percent.
