PRESS RELEASE

FLEX ANNOUNCES CHANGE IN THE FINANCING

CONDITION UNDER ITS TENDER OFFER FOR
ANY AND ALL 4.625% NOTES DUE 2020

San Jose, Calif., May 30, 2019 — Flex (Nasdaq: FLEX) today announced that it has amended the financing condition for its previously-announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for any and all of its outstanding 4.625% Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”).  In addition to the other terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, the Tender Offer is now subject to the successful completion by Flex of its previously-announced offering (the “Offering”) of $450 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% notes due 2029 (the “New Notes”).  The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with available cash, to effect the repurchase of the 2020 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer and the redemption, in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 2020 Notes, of any and all 2020 Notes remaining outstanding after the Tender Offer, including the payment of any premiums, accrued interest and costs and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing. If any 2020 Notes remain outstanding after the consummation of the Tender Offer, Flex expects (but is not obligated) to redeem such 2020 Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the related indenture. The Offering is not conditioned on the completion of the Tender Offer.

The Tender Offer is being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 30, 2019 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal and notice of guaranteed delivery (collectively, the “Offer Documents”), subject to the above-described amendment to the financing condition.

The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 5, 2019, unless extended or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase.

The Company has engaged J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and BNP Paribas Securities Corp. to act as dealer managers (collectively, the “Dealer Managers”) in connection with the Tender Offer, and has appointed D.F. King & Co., Inc. (“DF King”) to serve as the tender agent and information agent for the Tender Offer. Copies of the Offer Documents are available via the Tender Offer website at www.dfking.com/flex or by contacting DF King in New York via email at flex@dfking.com or via telephone at (212) 269-5550 (banks and brokers) or (800) 967-4607 (all others).  Questions regarding the terms of the Tender Offer should be directed to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC at (212) 834-8553 (collect) or (866) 834-4666 (toll-free), Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at (212) 723-6106 (collect) or (800) 558-3745 (toll-free) or BNP Paribas Securities Corp. at (212) 841-3059 (collect) or (888) 210-4358 (toll-free).

None of Flex, its board of directors, the Dealer Managers, DF King or the trustee for the 2020 Notes, or any of their respective affiliates, is making any recommendation as to whether Holders should tender any 2020 Notes in response to the Tender Offer. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender any of their 2020 Notes and, if so, the principal amount of 2020 Notes to tender.

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the 2020 Notes, or an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the New Notes pursuant to the Offering nor is it a solicitation for acceptance of the Tender Offer, nor shall it constitute a notice of redemption under the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. Flex is making the Tender Offer only by, and pursuant to the terms of, the Offer Documents. The Tender Offer is not being made in any jurisdiction in which the making or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction.
