1. | Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Description of Business
CDW Corporation (“Parent”) is a Fortune 500 company with multi-national capabilities and a leading provider of integrated information technology (“IT”) solutions to small, medium and large business, government, education and healthcare customers in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. The Company's offerings range from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions such as mobility, security, data center optimization, cloud computing, virtualization and collaboration.
Throughout this report, the terms the “Company” and “CDW” refer to Parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries.
Parent has two 100% owned subsidiaries, CDW LLC and CDW Finance Corporation. CDW LLC is an Illinois limited liability company that, together with its 100% owned subsidiaries, holds all material assets and conducts all business activities and operations of the Company. CDW Finance Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed for the sole purpose of acting as co-issuer of certain debt obligations and does not hold any material assets or engage in any business activities or operations.
On August 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Kelway TopCo Limited (“Kelway”) by purchasing the remaining 65% of its outstanding common stock which increased the Company’s ownership interest from 35% to 100%, and provided the Company control. On April 4, 2016, Kelway was rebranded CDW UK. Throughout this report, the term "CDW UK" refers to Kelway. For further details regarding the acquisition, see Note 3 (Acquisition).
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2016 and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “December 31, 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements”). The significant accounting policies used in preparing these Consolidated Financial Statements were applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The unaudited results of operations for such interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make use of certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements include an additional discussion of the significant accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

2. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, requiring the recognition of the income tax effects of stock awards in the income statement when the awards are settled and allowing the Company to repurchase more of an employee's shares than allowed under current guidance, without triggering liability accounting. This ASU also addresses simplifications related to statement of cash flows classification and accounting for forfeitures. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2017 and allows for early adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting for Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 and allows for early adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, simplifying the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring all deferred taxes to be presented as noncurrent in the balance sheet. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, amending the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value instead of the lower of cost or market value. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2017, allows for early adoption and must be applied prospectively after the date of adoption. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), replacing most existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP and eliminating industry specific guidance. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods and services equal to an amount it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods and services.
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, deferring the effective date by one year.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Gross versus Net), clarifying the principal versus agent guidance in the new revenue recognition standard, by revising the indicators to focus on evidence that the company is a principal. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018, allows for early adoption in the first quarter of 2017 and may be applied using either a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
3. | Acquisition |
On August 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of CDW UK by purchasing the remaining 65% of its outstanding common stock which increased the Company's ownership interest from 35% to 100%, and provided the Company control.

A summary of the total consideration transferred is as follows:
(in millions) | Acquisition-Date Fair Value | |||
Cash | $ | 291.6 | ||
Fair value of CDW common stock(1) | 33.2 | |||
Fair value of previously held equity investment on the date of acquisition(2) | 174.9 | |||
Total consideration | $ | 499.7 |
(1) | The Company issued 2 million shares of CDW common stock. The fair value of the common stock was based on the closing market price on July 31, 2015, adjusted for the lack of marketability as the shares of CDW common stock issued to the sellers are subject to a three-year lock up restriction from August 1, 2015. One of the sellers granted 1 million stock options to certain CDW UK coworkers over his shares of CDW common stock received in the transaction. The fair value of these stock options was $22 million, which has been accounted for as post-combination stock-based compensation and is being amortized over the weighted-average requisite service period of 3.2 years. Compensation expense for these options is included in Selling and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
(2) | As a result of the Company obtaining control over CDW UK, the Company’s previously held 35% equity investment was remeasured to fair value, resulting in a gain of $98 million included in Gain on remeasurement of equity investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of the previously held equity investment was determined by management with the assistance of a third party valuation firm, based on information available as of the acquisition date. |
The recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, translated using the foreign currency exchange rates on the date of acquisition, are as follows:
(in millions) | Acquisition-Date Fair Value(1) | |||
Cash | $ | 27.8 | ||
Accounts receivable | 135.7 | |||

Total liabilities assumed | (351.4 | ) | ||
Total identifiable net assets | 194.0 | |||
Goodwill | 305.7 | |||
Total purchase price | $ | 499.7 |
(1) | The fair values assigned to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. These fair values are subject to change within the measurement period. |

Goodwill in the amount of $306 million was recognized in the acquisition of CDW UK and is attributable to the business from new customers and the value of the acquired assembled workforce. The goodwill was allocated to the CDW UK operating segment which is included with CDW Canada in an all other category (“Other”). The full amount of goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes in the United Kingdom.
The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statements of Operations in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations of the Company and CDW UK, as if the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2015, and gives effect to pro forma events that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the transaction. The unaudited pro forma results reflect adjustments for equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration costs, incremental intangible asset amortization based on the fair values of each identifiable intangible asset, which are subject to change within the measurement period, pre-acquisition equity earnings, the gain on the remeasurement of the Company’s previously held 35% equity method investment, elimination of pre-acquisition intercompany sales transactions and the impacts of certain other pre-acquisition transactions. Pro forma adjustments were tax-effected at the statutory rates within the applicable jurisdictions.
This unaudited pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only and may not be indicative of the historical results of operations that would have been obtained if the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2015, nor the results that may be obtained in the future. This unaudited pro forma information does not reflect future synergies, integration costs, or other such costs or savings.
The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is as follows:
Net sales | $ | 2,972.7 | ||
Net income | 56.1 |
The unaudited pro forma information above reflects the following adjustments:
(1) | Excludes acquisition and integration costs directly related to the transaction. |
(2) | Includes additional amortization expense related to the fair value of acquired intangibles. |
(3) | Excludes the Company's share of net income/loss from its previously held 35% equity investment prior to the completion of the acquisition. |
(4) | Excludes non-cash equity-based compensation related to certain equity awards granted by one of the sellers to CDW UK coworkers in July 2015 prior to the completion of the acquisition. |
(5) | Includes additional non-cash equity-based compensation related to equity awards granted to CDW UK coworkers after the completion of the acquisition. |

(1) | The Senior Secured Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility (“Revolving Loan”) includes an inventory floorplan sub-facility that is related to the Revolving Loan inventory financing agreement with a financial intermediary. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Loan, $2 million of undrawn letters of credit and $340 million reserved related to the floorplan sub-facility. As of March 31, 2016, the borrowing base was $1,334 million based on the amount of eligible inventory and accounts receivable balances as of February 29, 2016. The Company could have borrowed up to an additional $908 million under the Revolving Loan as of March 31, 2016. |
(2) | The CDW UK Credit Facility is a multi-currency revolving credit facility, expiring on July 17, 2017, under which CDW UK is permitted to borrow an aggregate amount of £50.0 million ($72 million). |
Debt Covenants
As of March 31, 2016, the Company remained in compliance with the covenants under its various credit agreements, the most restrictive of which is under the credit agreement governing the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility ("Term Loan"). Under the Term Loan, there are restrictions on the ability of CDW to pay dividends, make share repurchases, redeem subordinated debt and engage in certain other transactions. As of March 31, 2016, the amount of CDW’s restricted payment capacity under the Term Loan was $680 million. However, the Company is separately permitted to make restricted payments, so long as the total net leverage ratio is less than 3.25 on a pro forma basis. The total net leverage ratio was 2.8 as of March 31, 2016.
Fair Value
The fair values of the 2022, 2023 and 2024 Senior Notes were estimated using quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets that are not considered active. The fair value of the Term Loan was estimated using dealer quotes for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not considered active. Consequently, the Company's long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the CDW UK Term Loan was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar arrangements. The approximate fair values and related carrying values of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities and excluding unamortized discount and unamortized deferred financing costs, were as follows:
(in millions) | March 31, 2016 | December 31, 2015 | ||||||

Interest Rate Cap Agreements
In order to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on borrowings under the Term Loan, the Company maintains interest rate cap agreements. As of March 31, 2016 the interest rate cap agreements had a combined notional amount of $1,400 million and are effective from January 14, 2015 through January 14, 2017. Under these agreements, the Company has the right to receive payments equal to the amount, if any, by which the three-month LIBOR exceeds 2.0% during the agreement period. The fair value of the Company's interest rate cap agreements was less than $1 million as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
6. | Earnings per Share |
The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share is Net income. The denominator for basic earnings per share is the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. A reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||
(in millions) | 2016 | 2015 | |||
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding | 167.3 | 172.1 | |||
Effect of dilutive securities(1) | 1.6 | 1.4 | |||
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding(2) | 168.9 | 173.5 |
(1) | The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock and Coworker Stock Purchase Plan units is reflected in the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. |
(2) | There were less than 1 million potential common shares excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect. |
7. | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company is party to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business, which include commercial, intellectual property, employment, tort and other litigation matters. The Company is also subject to audit by federal, state, international, national, provincial and local authorities, and by various partners, group purchasing organizations and customers, including government agencies, relating to purchases and sales under various contracts. In addition, the Company is subject to indemnification claims under various contracts. From time to time, certain customers of the Company file voluntary petitions for reorganization or liquidation under the US bankruptcy laws or similar laws of the jurisdictions for the Company’s business activities outside of the US. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company could be considered preference items and subject to return to the bankruptcy administrator.
On October 29, 2015, the Company received a request for production of documents in connection with an investigation by the SEC of the Company’s vendor partner program incentives. The Company has produced documents to the SEC and is continuing to cooperate with the SEC in this matter.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company does not believe that there is a reasonable possibility that any material loss exceeding the amounts already recognized for these proceedings and matters, if any, has been incurred. However, the ultimate resolutions of these proceedings and matters are inherently unpredictable. As such, the Company's financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these proceedings or matters.
8. | Segment Information |
The Company has two reportable segments: Corporate, which is comprised primarily of private sector business customers in the US, and Public, which is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. The Company has two other operating segments: CDW Canada and CDW UK, both of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”). Effective January 1, 2016, CDW Advanced Services is no longer an operating segment. Its results have been allocated to the Corporate and

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “we,” “us,” “the Company,” “our,” “CDW” and similar terms refer to CDW Corporation and its subsidiaries. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion.
Overview
CDW is a Fortune 500 company and a leading provider of integrated information technology (“IT”) solutions in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. With our multinational capabilities, we help our customer base of over 250,000 small, medium and large business, government, education and healthcare customers by delivering critical solutions to their increasingly complex IT needs. Our broad array of offerings ranges from discrete hardware and software products to integrated IT solutions such as mobility, security, data center optimization, cloud computing, virtualization and collaboration. We are technology “agnostic,” with a product portfolio including more than 100,000 products from more than 1,000 brands. We provide our products and solutions through more than 5,000 customer-facing coworkers, including field sellers, highly-skilled technology specialists and advanced service delivery engineers.
We are a leading sales channel partner in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom for many original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and software publishers (collectively, our “vendor partners”), whose products we sell or include in the solutions we offer. We believe we are an important extension of our vendor partners’ sales and marketing capabilities, providing them with a cost-effective way to reach customers and deliver a consistent brand experience through our established end-market coverage and extensive customer access.
On August 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Kelway TopCo Limited (“Kelway”) by purchasing the remaining 65% of its outstanding common stock which increased our ownership interest from 35% to 100%, and provided us control. On April 4, 2016, Kelway was rebranded CDW UK. Throughout this report, the term “CDW UK” refers to Kelway. CDW UK is a UK-based IT solutions provider which has global supply chain relationships that enable it to conduct business in more than 80 countries. This investment strengthens our ability to provide a more comprehensive solution to our customers and enhances our ability to serve our existing multi-national customers. We included the financial results of CDW UK in our Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition. For additional information relating to the acquisition, see Note 3 (Acquisition) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have two reportable segments, Corporate, which is comprised primarily of private sector business customers in the US, and Public, which is comprised of government agencies and education and healthcare institutions in the US. Our Corporate segment is divided into a medium/large business customer channel, primarily serving customers with more than 100 employees, and a small business customer channel, primarily serving customers with up to 100 employees.
We also have two other operating segments: CDW Canada and CDW UK, both of which do not meet the reportable segment quantitative thresholds and, accordingly, are included in an all other category (“Other”). Effective January 1, 2016, CDW Advanced Services is no longer an operating segment. Its results have been allocated to the Corporate and Public segments to align our financial reporting with the manner in which the Chief Operating Decision Maker assesses performance and makes resource allocation decisions. Segment information reported in prior periods has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
We may sell all or only select products that our vendor partners offer. Each vendor partner agreement provides for specific terms and conditions, which may include one or more of the following: product return privileges, price protection policies, purchase discounts and vendor incentive programs, such as purchase or sales rebates and cooperative advertising reimbursements. We also resell software for major software publishers. Our agreements with software publishers allow the end-user customer to acquire software or licensed products and services. In addition to helping our customers determine the best software solutions for their needs, we help them manage their software agreements, including warranties and renewals. A significant portion of our advertising and marketing expenses is reimbursed through cooperative advertising programs with our vendor partners. These programs are at the discretion of our vendor partners and are typically tied to sales or other commitments to be met by us within a specified period of time.

Trends and key factors affecting our financial performance
We believe the following trends may have an important impact on our financial performance:
• | Our Public segment sales are impacted by government spending policies, budget priorities and revenue levels. An adverse change in any of these factors could cause our Public segment customers to reduce their purchases or to terminate or not renew contracts with us, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or cash flows. For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, on an average daily sales basis, sales to federal customers increased year-over-year by high single-digits as we continued to benefit from strategic changes made to better align with federal government purchasing programs. During the same period, sales to state and local customers increased year-over-year in the high-teens, driven by our continued focus on meeting public safety needs. Education sales decreased in the quarter driven by declines in higher education sales due to ongoing state budget issues. |
• | An important factor affecting our ability to generate sales and achieve our targeted operating results is the impact of general economic conditions on our customers’ willingness to spend on information technology. Global economic signals in 2016 continue to be mixed. We continue to closely monitor macroeconomic conditions and adjust our hiring plans appropriately. Uncertainties related to potential changes in tax and regulatory policy, potential interest rate increases, weakening consumer and business confidence or increased unemployment could result in reduced or deferred spending on information technology products and services by our customers and result in increased competitive pricing pressures. |
• | We believe that our customers’ transition to more complex technology solutions will continue to be an important growth area for us in the future. However, because the market for technology products and services is highly competitive, our success at capitalizing on this transition will be based on our ability to tailor specific solutions to customer needs, the quality and breadth of our product and service offerings, the knowledge and expertise of our sales force, price, product availability and speed of delivery. In the first quarter of 2016, sales were balanced between integrated solutions and transactional sales. |
Key business metrics
Our management monitors a number of financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis in order to track the progress of our business and make adjustments as necessary. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include average daily sales, gross margin, operating margin, net income, Non-GAAP net income, net income per common share, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, return on invested capital, cash and cash equivalents, net working capital, cash conversion cycle (defined to be days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average), debt levels including available credit and leverage ratios, sales per coworker and coworker turnover. These measures and ratios are compared to standards or objectives set by management, so that actions can be taken, as necessary, in order to achieve the standards and objectives.
Non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these measures provide helpful information with respect to our operating performance and cash flows including our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA also provides helpful information as it is the primary measure used in certain key covenants and definitions contained in the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Term Loan Facility (the “Term Loan”), including the excess cash flow payment provision, the restricted payment covenant and the net leverage ratio. These covenants and definitions are material components of the Term Loan as they are used in determining the interest rate applicable to the Term Loan, our ability to make certain investments, incur additional debt, and make restricted payments, such as dividends and share repurchases, as well as whether we are required to make additional principal prepayments on the Term Loan beyond the quarterly amortization payments. For further details regarding the Term Loan, see Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 5 (Long-Term Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.
For the definitions of Non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations to Net income, see “Results of Operations”.

(1) | As a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03 during the second quarter of 2015, total debt outstanding as of March 31, 2015 has been revised to reflect the change in the presentation of deferred financing costs, which are now shown as a reduction of long-term debt, instead of being presented as a separate asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In the third quarter of 2015, we adopted ASU 2015-15 which allows companies to present deferred financing costs for line-of-credit arrangements as an asset. We retrospectively adjusted the deferred financing costs and long-term debt liability presented in historical periods to align it to the current period presentation. |
(2) | Cash conversion cycle is defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average. |

(2) | Effective January 1, 2016, CDW Advanced Services is included in our Corporate and Public segments and Other is comprised of CDW Canada and CDW UK. Prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. |
Total Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $362 million, or 13.1%, to $3,117 million, compared to $2,755 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. On an average daily basis, total Net sales increased 11.4%. This increase reflects both organic net sales growth and the impact of consolidating three months of CDW UK net sales. We experienced balanced growth in integrated solutions and transactional product sales. Solutions-focused growth is driven by software, netcomm and enterprise storage. Growth in transactional products is led by notebooks/mobile devices.
Organic net sales, which excludes the impact of the acquisition of CDW UK, increased $130 million, or 4.7%, to $2,885 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $2,755 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Average daily organic net sales on a constant currency basis, which excludes the impact of foreign currency translation, increased 3.5%. For additional information, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations” below.
Corporate segment net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $82 million, or 5.1%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. On an average daily basis, Corporate segment net sales increased 3.4%. This increase is driven by sales growth in both our medium/large and small business customer channels reflecting stronger performance in transactional product sales. Within our Corporate segment, net sales to medium/large customers increased $69 million, or 5.1%, between periods driven by strong sales performance in notebook/mobile devices. Net sales to small business customers increased by $13 million, or 4.9%, between periods, also led by growth in notebook/mobile devices.
Public segment net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $52 million, or 5.1%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. On an average daily basis, Public segment net sales increased 3.5%. This increase is driven by sales growth in government partially offset by a slight decline in education. Net sales to government customers increased $46 million, or 15.5%, between periods, as sales to both federal and state/local government customers experienced double-digit growth. The increase in net sales to the federal government was driven by growth in sales of netcomm products and software as we continued to benefit from strategic changes made to better align with federal government purchasing programs. A continued focus on public safety drove the increase in net sales to state/local government customers, which was led by growth in sales of enterprise storage, software, netcomm products, and server-related products such as memory. Net sales to education customers decreased $4 million,
28
or 1.3%, between periods, driven by a decline in net sales to higher education customers primarily due to a decline in netcomm products. Net sales to healthcare customers increased $11 million, or 2.9%, between periods, driven by an increase in software and enterprise storage. Healthcare sales expanded slightly reflecting the continuing impact of consolidation in the healthcare industry.
Net sales in Other for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $227 million, or 178.1%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Other is comprised of CDW Canada and CDW UK. The increase in net sales was driven by the impact of consolidating three months of CDW UK net sales, partially offset by a decline in the US dollar-denominated net sales of CDW Canada. The net sales of CDW Canada in local currency continued to grow during the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2015.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased $68 million, or 14.9%, to $525 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $457 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. As a percentage of Net sales, Gross profit increased 25 basis points to 16.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from 16.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2015.
Net service contract revenue, including items such as third-party services, warranties and Software as a Service (“SaaS”) and commission revenue contributed a positive impact of 25 basis points to gross profit margin as our cost paid to the vendor or third-party service provider is recorded as a reduction to net sales, resulting in net sales being equal to the gross profit on the transaction. We experienced a favorable impact of 45 basis points from vendor partner funding, which includes purchase discounts, volume rebates and cooperative advertising. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted 40 basis points by unfavorable price/mix changes in product margin.
Gross profit margin may fluctuate based on various factors, including vendor incentive and inventory price protection programs, cooperative advertising funds classified as a reduction of cost of sales, product mix, net service contract revenue, commission revenue, pricing strategies, market conditions and other factors.
Selling and administrative expenses
Selling and administrative expenses increased $54 million, or 19.5%, to $329 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $275 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. As a percentage of total Net sales, Selling and administrative expenses increased 60 basis points to 10.6% in the first quarter of 2016, up from 10.0% in the first quarter of 2015. Payroll costs increased $33 million, or 19.3%, between quarters, primarily due to higher costs consistent with increased coworker count and inclusion of CDW UK expenses. Total coworker count was 8,624, up 1,370 from 7,254 at March 31, 2015. Total coworker count was 8,465 at December 31, 2015. Amortization expense related to intangibles increased $8 million, or 18.0%, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to incremental intangible asset amortization expense arising from our acquisition of CDW UK. Non-cash equity-based compensation expense increased $4 million, or 78.4%, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to annual equity awards granted under our 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan in 2016 and equity awards granted in connection with our acquisition of CDW UK.

Total operating margin percentage decreased 30 basis points to 5.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from 5.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Operating margin percentage was negatively impacted by an increase in Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net sales, driven by increased payroll costs consistent with increased coworker count and higher intangibles amortization expense related to our acquisition of CDW UK, partially offset by the increase in gross profit margin.
Corporate segment income from operations was $118 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of less than $1 million, or 0.4%, compared to $119 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Corporate segment operating margin percentage decreased 40 basis points to 7.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from 7.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. This decrease was due to unfavorable price/mix in product margin and a decline in services utilization, as well as an increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net sales, driven by higher costs consistent with increased coworker count.
Public segment income from operations was $58 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $3 million, or 5.6%, compared to $55 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Public segment operating margin percentage was 5.5% and 5.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The 10 basis point increase in operating margin percentage was driven by a higher mix of net service contract revenue, partially offset by higher costs consistent with increased coworker count.
Other income from operations was $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $3 million, or 64.1%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to the inclusion of CDW UK income from operations. Other operating margin percentage decreased 160 basis points to 2.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from 3.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net sales, driven by higher intangibles amortization expense from our acquisition of CDW UK.

Interest expense, net
At March 31, 2016, our outstanding long-term debt totaled $3,252 million compared to $3,180 million at March 31, 2015. Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $38 million, a decrease of $7 million, compared to $45 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. This decrease was primarily due to lower effective interest rates as of March 31, 2016, compared to March 31, 2015, as a result of redemptions and refinancing activities completed during 2015.
Net loss on extinguishments of long-term debt
For information regarding our debt, see Note 5 (Long-Term Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. During three months ended March 31, 2016, there was no net loss on extinguishments of long-term debt, compared to $24 million recorded in 2015. Net loss on extinguishments of long-term debt for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was as follows:
Month of Extinguishment | Debt Instrument | (in millions) | ||||||||
Amount Extinguished | Loss Recognized | |||||||||
March 2015 | 2019 Senior Notes | $ | 503.9 | $ | (24.3 | ) | (1) | |||
Total Loss Recognized | $ | (24.3 | ) |
(1) | We redeemed all of the remaining aggregate principal amount outstanding. The loss recognized represents the difference between the redemption price and the net carrying amount of the purchased debt, adjusted for the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs and premium. |
Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $46 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $32 million for the same period of the prior year. The effective income tax rate, expressed by calculating the income tax expense as a percentage of Income before income taxes, was 37.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 37.1% for the same period of the prior year and differed in both periods from the US federal statutory rate primarily due to state and local income taxes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations
We have included reconciliations of Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Organic net sales growth and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 below. Non-GAAP net income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, non-cash equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses and gains and losses from the extinguishment of long-term debt. EBITDA is defined as consolidated Net income before interest expense, Income tax expense, Depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a measure defined in our credit agreements, means EBITDA adjusted for certain items which are described in the table below. Organic net sales growth is calculated as net sales growth excluding the impact of acquisitions recorded within the last twelve months. Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis is calculated as organic net sales growth excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on organic net sales compared to the prior period. Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Organic net sales growth and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by us may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We believe that Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Organic net sales growth and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis provide helpful information with respect to our operating performance and cash flows including our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA is also the primary measure used in certain key covenants and definitions contained in the credit agreement governing our Term Loan, including the excess cash flow payment provision, the restricted payment covenant and the net leverage ratio. These covenants and definitions are material components of the Term Loan as they are used in determining the interest rate applicable to the Term Loan, our ability to make certain investments, incur additional debt and make restricted payments, such as dividends and share repurchases, as well as whether we are required to make additional principal prepayments on the Term Loan beyond the quarterly amortization payments. For further details regarding the Term Loan, see Note 5 (Long-Term Debt) to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Non-GAAP net income
Non-GAAP net income was $113 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $15 million, or 15.5%, compared to $98 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Organic net sales on a constant currency basis, which excludes the impact of foreign currency translation, increased $141 million, or 5.1%, to $2,885 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $2,744 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Seasonality
While we have not historically experienced significant seasonality throughout the year, sales in our Corporate segment, which primarily serves private sector business customers, are typically higher in the fourth quarter than in other quarters due to customers spending their remaining technology budget dollars at the end of the year. Additionally, sales in our Public segment have historically been higher in the third quarter than in other quarters primarily due to the buying patterns of the federal government and education customers.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our operations and capital expenditures with internally generated cash from operations. We also have $908 million of availability for borrowings under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility and an additional £50 million ($72 million) under the CDW UK revolving credit facility. Our liquidity and borrowing plans are established to align with our financial and strategic planning processes and ensure we have the necessary funding to meet our operating commitments, which primarily include the purchase of inventory, payroll and general expenses. We also take into consideration our overall capital allocation strategy which includes investment for future growth, dividend payments, acquisitions and share repurchases. We believe we have adequate sources of liquidity and funding available at least for the next year, however, there are a number of factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds. The amount of cash generated from operations will be dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business plan and general economic conditions.
Share Repurchase Program
During the first quarter of 2016, we repurchased 3 million shares of our common stock for $118 million under the previously announced $500 million share repurchase program. On May 4, 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a $750 million increase to our share repurchase program under which we may repurchase shares of our common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated or other transactions, depending on share price, market conditions and other factors. The increase to the share repurchase program is effective immediately. For more information on our share repurchase program, See Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

(1) | Includes items such as Deferred income taxes, Depreciation and amortization, Equity-based compensation expense, income from equity method investment and net loss on extinguishments of long-term debt. |
(2) | The increase in cash flows reflected stronger operating results driven by the impact of consolidating three months of CDW UK's financial results, organic sales growth, a decrease in the net loss on extinguishments of long-term debt, and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher income tax expense. |
(3) | The increase in cash flow was primarily due to an increase in collections during the first quarter of 2016 due to the higher accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2015. In addition, the lower accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2014, driven by early payments from certain customers, resulted in lower cash flows in the prior year period. |
34
(4) | The decrease in cash flows was primarily due to the higher inventory balance as of March 31, 2016 as a result of the timing of inventory shipments to customers, an increase in inventory on-hand to support the growth in the business and the incremental impact of consolidating CDW UK's inventory activity. |
(5) | The increase in cash flows is primarily due to the incremental impact of consolidating CDW UK's other assets activity. |
(6) | The increase in cash flows was primarily due to the timing of payments to vendors during the current period, longer payment terms with certain vendors and growth in the business. |
In order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs, we monitor our cash conversion cycle, defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable, based on a rolling three-month average. Components of our cash conversion cycle are as follows:
March 31, | |||||
(in days) | 2016 | 2015 | |||
Days of sales outstanding (DSO)(1) | 49 | 45 | |||
Days of supply in inventory (DIO)(2) | 14 | 13 | |||
Days of purchases outstanding (DPO)(3) | (43 | ) | (37 | ) | |
Cash conversion cycle | 20 | 21 |
(1) | Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Accounts receivable, net at the end of the period, divided by average daily net sales for the same three-month period. Also incorporates components of other miscellaneous receivables. |
(2) | Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of Merchandise inventory at the end of the period divided by average daily cost of sales for the same three-month period. |
(3) | Represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of Accounts payable-trade, excluding cash overdrafts, and Accounts payable-inventory financing at the end of the period divided by average daily cost of sales for the same three-month period. |
The cash conversion cycle decreased to 20 days at March 31, 2016 compared to 21 days at March 31, 2015. The increase in DSO was primarily due to higher Net sales and receivables for third-party services such as software assurance and warranties. These services have an unfavorable impact on DSO as the receivable is recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet on a gross basis while the corresponding sales amount in the Statement of Operations is recorded on a net basis. These services have a favorable impact on DPO as the payable is recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet without a corresponding Cost of sales in the Statement of Operations because the cost paid to the vendor or third-party service provider is recorded as a reduction to Net sales. In addition, DPO also increased due to the mix of payables with certain vendors that have longer payment terms. The increase in DIO was primarily due to a higher inventory balance as of March 31, 2016 as compared to March 31, 2015 as a result of the timing of inventory shipments to customers during the period and growth in the business.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by less than $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period of the prior year. Capital expenditures were $11 million and $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and primarily related to improvements to our information technology systems during both periods.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased by $144 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2016 which resulted in an increase in cash used for financing activities of $118 million and by the changes in Accounts payable-inventory financing, which resulted in an increase in cash provided for financing activities of $24 million. For more information on our share repurchase program, see Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds. The decrease in cash provided by Accounts payable-inventory financing was primarily driven by the higher balance as of December 31, 2015, and was partially offset by an increase in the accounts payable-inventory financing balance as of March 31, 2016, driven by a new vendor addition to our previously existing inventory financing agreement at December 31, 2015. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was partially offset by the net impact of our debt transactions which resulted in a decrease in cash used of $7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the prior year period as there were no debt transactions during the current period.

Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2016, we had total indebtedness of $3,252 million, of which $1,578 million was secured indebtedness.
