Such forward-looking statements are not based on historical fact but are based upon numerous assumptions about future conditions that may not occur. Given their forward-looking nature, these statements involve substantial risks, uncertainties and potentially inaccurate assumptions. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “should,” “would,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will,” “potential,” “possible,” “could,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “project,” and similar expressions or by using future dates. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Forward-looking statements are made based upon information that is currently available or management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon us, speak only as of the date hereof, and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.

●
our inability to identify merger and acquisition candidates, perform sufficient due diligence prior to completing mergers and acquisitions, successfully complete merger and acquisition transactions (including on favorable terms), successfully integrate a completed merger and/or acquisition, identify an opportunity for, or successfully complete, a business disposition, or achieve the operational and financial results we anticipate after a disposition (such as from completing the sale of our domestic financing business);

PART I
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS
Our Business
e Plus inc. (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “ e Plus”) is a leading provider of technology solutions across the IT spectrum spanning AI, cloud, data center, security, networking, and collaboration, to domestic and foreign organizations across all industry segments. We operate through our product, professional services, and managed services segments. We have been in business since 1990.
Our Solutions
Our solutions are comprised of world class leading technologies from partners such as Amazon Web Services (“AWS”), Arista Networks, Check Point, Cisco Systems, Citrix, CrowdStrike, Dell, Everpure, F5 Networks, Foresite, Fortinet, Gigamon, HPE, Lenovo, Microsoft, NetApp, Nutanix, NVIDIA, Oracle, Palo Alto Networks, Proficio, Rubrik, SentinelOne, Varonis, VMware by Broadcom, Zoom, and many others.
Our solutions leverage a broad range of professional, consultative, and managed services, across the technology spectrum. We possess top-level engineering certifications with a broad range of leading IT technologies that enable us to offer multi-vendor IT solutions that are optimized for each of our customers’ specific requirements. We are skilled in AI, orchestration and automation, application modernization, DevSecOps, zero-trust architectures, data management, data visualization, analytics, network modernization, edge computing, consumption licensing models, and other advanced and emerging technologies.
Our scale and financial resources enable us to continue investing in engineering and technology resources to stay at the forefront of technology trends. Our proprietary hosted software solutions give our customers more control over their IT supply chain through automating and optimizing the procurement and management of their owned, leased, and consumption-based assets. These solutions have expanded to include private marketplace experiences for our customers such as AWS Marketplace, Azure Marketplace, and Google Cloud Marketplace.
Our Customers
We serve 4,200 customers that are primarily middle market to large enterprises and state and local government institutions, including state and local education (“SLED”) institutions, across diverse customer end markets. For the year ended March 31, 2026, the percentage of revenue by customer end market within our business includes 30% for telecommunications, media and entertainment, 13% for SLED, 13% for healthcare, 12% for technology, 10% for financial services, and 6% for retail. Sales to Verizon Communications Inc. represented 24%, 17%, and 19% of our net sales and 17%, 12%, and 13% of gross billings for the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. We sell to customers in the United States (“US”), which account for most of our sales, and to customers in select international markets including the United Kingdom (“UK”), the European Union (“EU”), India, and Singapore.
Our Competition
The market for IT solutions is highly competitive, subject to macro-economic cycles, and the entry of new competitors. Additionally, the market is subject to disruption from consolidation of existing market participants that will create larger competitors, by the introduction of disruptive technologies, and by other activities of industry participants. We expect to continue to compete in all areas of our business against local, regional, national, and international firms, including vendors, consulting firms, international, national, and regional resellers, and service providers. Some of our competitors are direct marketers with little value-add and sell products as commodities, which can place downward pressure on product pricing. In addition, many vendors may sell directly to our customers, and our continued ability to compete effectively may be affected by the strategies and business practices of such vendors. Also, some distributors have or are creating entities which can resell directly to customers and hold SLED contracts. Some vendors are building and launching their own adoption and managed services to better ensure customer satisfaction and retainment. We face indirect competition from potential customers’ reluctance to move away from legacy systems, processes, and solutions providers. As IT consumption shifts from IT personnel and legacy infrastructure to line-of-business based outcomes using off-premise, on-demand, and cloud solutions, the legacy resale model has continued to shift from an upfront sale to a recurring revenue model.

Our Offerings
We provide a range of IT products and advanced professional and managed services to help our customers improve productivity, profitability, and revenue growth while reducing operating costs.

We hold various technical and IT product sales-related certifications from leading vendors and software publishers, which authorizes us to market their products and enables us to provide advanced professional and managed services. We actively engage with emerging vendors to offer their technologies to our customers, including understanding new technologies and obtaining training and certifications as needed by our employees.

Table of Contents
Our sales representatives are compensated by a combination of salary and commission, with commission becoming the primary component of compensation as the sales representatives gain experience. We market to different areas within a customer’s organization, including business units as well as the IT department, lines of business, or finance department, depending on the solutions.
As of March 31, 2026, our sales force consisted of 705 sales, marketing and sales support personnel organized regionally across the US, UK, and India.
Our Intellectual Property Rights
Our success depends in part upon proprietary business methodologies and technologies that we have licensed and modified. Although we believe the protection afforded by our patents, copyrights, trademarks, contractual rights and trade secrets have value, the rapidly changing technology in the IT industry and uncertainties in the domestic and international legal process is inherently unpredictable and there is no assurance that we will prevail in challenges to our intellectual property rights.
We own certain software programs or have entered into software licensing agreements to provide services to our customers. We rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secret protection, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements, licensing arrangements and other contractual provisions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. We seek to protect our documentation and other written materials and confidential corporate information under contract, trade secret and copyright laws, which afford only limited protection.
Additionally, we have trademarks in the US, the UK and the EU. We intend to use and protect these and our other marks, including common-law marks, as we deem necessary. We also have over 10 registered copyrights, in addition to unregistered copyrights in our website content, software, marketing and other written materials.
We do not maintain a traditional research and development group, but we work closely with computer product vendors and other technology developers to stay abreast of the latest developments in computer technology, with respect to the products we both sell and use. For example, we recognize AI as a transformational force and anticipate that AI will significantly impact and evolve our product and service offerings and the business operations of our customers that we advise and support.
Our Financial and Risk Management Activities
Inventory Management : We purchase inventory at our customers’ request to order products, usually from a purchase order from our customer. In addition, we have drop-shipment arrangements with many of our vendors and distributors, which permit us to offer products to our customers without taking physical delivery of the equipment. Using the distribution systems available, we frequently sell products that are shipped from the vendors or distributors directly to our customers’ locations, which assists us in reducing inventory and minimizing shipping costs. For the year ended March 31, 2026, our three largest distributors, Ingram Micro, Arrow Electronics, and TD SYNNEX, collectively accounted for over 30% of our purchases related to our product segment net sales.
Risk Management and Process Controls : We use and maintain a disciplined credit approval processes. We have an executive management review process and other internal controls to evaluate transactions’ potential risk. We manage our risk by using conservative credit quality analysis and periodic monitoring of our customer’s financial results or through third-party risk evaluation tools; monitoring our customer accounts receivable balances and payment history; proactively pursuing delinquent accounts; ensuring we have appropriate contractual terms and conditions; perfecting security interests when practicable; requiring prepayment or deposits if indicated; performing fraud checks for new accounts; and evaluating general economic as well as industry specific trends. Our systems automatically decrease trade credit lines based on assigned risk ratings.
Our Human Capital
Our employees are a critical resource for us, and their collective dedication and talent enable us to be a trusted advisor to our customers.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Many factors could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows, some of which are beyond our control. The following is a description of some important factors that may cause our business prospects, results of operations and cash flows in future periods to differ materially from those currently expected or desired. References to past events are provided by way of example only and are not intended to be a complete listing or a representation as to whether or not such factors have occurred in the past or their likelihood of occurring in the future. Factors not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.
Risks Specific to our Business
If one or more of our large volume customers significantly reduces purchasing from us or there is a material change in profitability of sales to our customers, our results of operations may be affected.
The contracts for the provision of products and services from us to our customers are generally non-exclusive agreements without volume purchase commitments and are terminable by either party upon 30 days’ notice. A material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows could result from one or more such customers’ failing to pay amounts due to us, reducing or ceasing to purchase from us, or if we experience a material adverse change in the profitability of sales to our customers. On March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, our accounts receivable-trade balance included a concentration of approximately 36% and 17% of invoices due from Verizon Communications Inc., respectively.
We may fail to innovate, develop, or sell new solutions which align with changing market and customer demand, and we may fail to provide our services to a professional standard, and we face substantial competition from other companies, including certain larger, well-established companies.
As a provider of a comprehensive set of technology solutions, which involves the offering of bundled solutions consisting of direct IT sales, and professional and managed services, we expect to encounter some of the challenges, risks, and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies providing bundled solutions in rapidly evolving markets. Some of these challenges include our ability to increase the total number of users of our services and adapt to meet changes in our markets, particularly our ability to develop, deploy and monetize AI enabled solutions. Our personnel must continually stay current with vendor and marketplace technology advancements, develop solutions which may integrate evolving and multiple vendor products and services, as well as services and solutions we provide, to meet changing marketplace and customer demand. Further, we may provide customized solutions and services that are solely reliant on our own marketing, design, and fulfillment services, and we may lack the skills, systems, or personnel to execute. Our failure to innovate and provide bespoke value to our customers may erode our competitive position, market share and lead to reduced revenue and financial performance.
We provide consulting services, project related services, service desk and managed services, and staffing to our customers. We may fail to design or execute a service in accordance with our contract which results in an error or omission, or in accordance with professional standards which may bring harm to our customers. Such harm could include technological or human failure that results in a cyber-related data breach, privacy incident, or other event that adversely impacts our customers’ IT systems and/or business processes.

In all our markets, some of our competitors have longer operating histories and greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources than we do. In addition, some of these competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities, technologies, and customer requirements such as generative AI. Many current competitors may have, and potential competitors may have, greater name recognition, greater financial, technical, research and development or other resources than we do. As compared to us, our current and potential competitors may engage in more extensive promotional marketing and advertising activities, offer more attractive terms to customers, adopt more aggressive pricing and credit policies, have broader distribution and established relationships with vendors and end customers, and have greater ability to leverage their sales efforts across a broader portfolio of products.
We may be required to make substantial additional investments in research, development, marketing, and sales in order to respond to competition, and we cannot assure you that these investments will achieve any returns for us or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future.
We compete with local, regional, national, and international firms, including other direct marketers; national and regional resellers; cloud marketplace competitors; hyperscale cloud providers; and regional, national, and international service providers. In addition, we face competition from vendors or distributors, which may choose to market products directly to end-users, rather than through channel partners such as our company which could adversely affect our future sales. Many competitors compete principally based on price and may have lower costs or accept lower selling prices than we do and, therefore, our gross margins may not be maintainable. Online marketplace competitors are continually improving their pricing and offerings to customers as well as ease of use of their online marketplaces.
We rely on a small number of key vendors and third parties, and do not have long-term supply or guaranteed price agreements or assurance of inventory availability from our vendors.
A substantial portion of our revenue depends on a small number of key vendors. Products manufactured by Cisco Systems represented approximately 29%, 32%, and 44% of net sales for the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Products manufactured by NetApp, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Juniper Networks, Dell, and Arista Networks, collectively represented approximately 23% to 28% of net sales for the last three years. We may also be adversely affected by consolidation among our vendors.
Manufacturing interruptions or delays, including as a result of changes to or the addition of trade laws, duties or tariffs, political or social unrest, energy market disruption, scarcity and price volatility of critical minerals and other materials, international conflicts, financial instability or bankruptcy of vendors, currency translation losses, significant labor disputes such as strikes, natural disasters, pandemics, other public health crises, or other adverse events affecting any aspect of our vendors’ business, could disrupt our supply chain. We are experiencing product constraints due to increased demand for high performing computing components driven by AI workloads. In addition, we may experience product constraints due to the unavailability of raw materials or components, delays in shipping, failure of vendors to accurately forecast customer demand or to manufacture or otherwise obtain sufficient quantities of product or component parts to meet customer demand, among other reasons. If we experience significant supply chain disruptions, we may not be able to develop alternate sourcing quickly on favorable terms, if at all, which could result in increased inventory levels, delay the completion of related services, a loss of sales and a loss of customers adversely impacting our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may be at risk for customers’ cancelling orders due to delays and we may not be able to cancel our corresponding order with the vendor. If we are unable to mitigate these disruptions, our financial results may be adversely impacted.
As we do not stock inventory that is not related to an order we have received from our customers, we depend upon the supply of products available from our vendors to fulfill orders from our customers on a timely basis. Supply chain issues, including a shortage of IT products and available services, may increase prices and affect demand by our customers.
We rely on arrangements with vendors to perform certain professional services, staffing services, managed services, maintenance, warranties, configuration services, and other services for our customers. If these vendors do not perform these services in accordance with the terms of our agreement and to a professional standard customary for the services, including if their services include an error or omission, or if they cause disruption of, or security weaknesses within, our customers’ businesses, results to our organization could include legal claims and associated costs, monetary damages paid to our customers, and an adverse effect on our customer and other business partner relationships, our brand, our reputation, and our results of operations or cash flows could be affected. In addition, the acquisition by our competitors of third-party companies that we are relying upon to perform certain of our customer obligations may impact our revenue.

We rely on independent shipping vendors to deliver products from us and our vendors to our customers. The failure or inability of these shipping vendors to deliver products, or the lack of availability of their shipping services, even temporarily, could have an adverse effect on our business. We may also be adversely affected by an increase in freight charges and shipping delays that may result from economic, supply-chain, geopolitical, or other disruptions.
The loss of a key vendor or changes in its policies could adversely impact our financial results. Alleged or actual violations of a contract that results in either the termination of our ability to sell the product or a decrease in our certification level with the vendor could adversely impact our financial results. In addition, a reduction in the trade credit lines or the favorable terms granted to us by our vendors and financial partners could increase our need for, and the cost of, working capital and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Breaches of data security and the failure to protect our information technology systems and confidential information from cybersecurity threats, our inability to maintain compliance with data privacy laws and regulations, or misuse of our customers’ or employees’ information could adversely impact our business.
Our business involves the storage and/or transmission of proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data, including personal information of our employees, customers, and others. In addition, we rely on our vendors that provide goods and services to us to maintain appropriate security measures to protect our operations. Also, we operate data centers for our customers that host their technology infrastructure and may store and transmit both business-critical data and confidential information. In connection with our services business, some of our employees also may have access to our customers’ confidential data and other information. We have privacy and data security policies in place that are designed to prevent security breaches; however, as newer technologies emerge such as AI, and the portfolio of the service providers with whom we share sensitive information grows, we could be exposed to increased risk of breaches in data security and other illegal or fraudulent acts, including ransomware attacks and other types of cyberattacks. The evolving nature of such threats, considering new and sophisticated methods used by criminals and cyberterrorists, including computer viruses, malware, phishing, social engineering, AI, and forgery, are making it increasingly challenging to anticipate and adequately mitigate these risks.
As a high percentage of our employees work from home more often than in our offices, we are highly reliant on the availability and functionality of our information systems to enable our operations. Working from home may increase risk of data loss, including privacy-related events. If our information systems are not operational for reasons which may include cybersecurity attacks, data center failures, failures by telecom providers to provide services to our business and to our employees’ homes, as well as the home offices of our vendors’ and customers’ employees, power failures, or failures of cloud application software such as SaaS based software, our business and financial results may be adversely impacted.
If third parties or our employees are able to maliciously penetrate our network security or otherwise misappropriate our customers’ information or employees’ personal information, or other information for which our customers may be responsible and for which we agree to be responsible in connection with service contracts into which we may enter, or if we give third parties or our employees improper access to certain information, we could be subject to liability. This liability could include claims for unauthorized access to devices on our network; unauthorized access to our customers’ or vendors’ networks, hardware, applications, data, devices, or software; unauthorized purchases with credit card information; and identity theft or other similar fraud-related claims. This liability could also include claims for other misuses of or inappropriate access to personal information. Other liability could include claims alleging misrepresentation of our privacy and data security practices. Any such liability could decrease our profitability. We could incur additional expenses when new laws or regulations regarding the use, safeguarding, or privacy of information are enacted or interpreted if governmental agencies require us to substantially modify our privacy or security practices. We could fail to comply with international and domestic data privacy laws, the violation of which may result in audits, fines, penalties, litigation, or administrative enforcement actions with associated costs.

Third parties, such as hackers, could circumvent or sabotage the security practices and products used in our product and service offerings, and/or the security practices or products used in our internal IT systems, which could result in disclosure of sensitive or personal information, unauthorized procurement, or other business interruptions that could damage our reputation and disrupt our business, as well as that of our customers. Attacks may range from random attempts to coordinated and targeted attacks, including sophisticated computer crime and advanced persistent threats.
Advances in technology, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, quantum computing, or AI, other events or developments may result in a compromise or breach of the security practices we use to protect sensitive customer transaction information and employee information. A party that can circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. Further, third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or customers into disclosing sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, or other information or otherwise compromise the security of our internal networks and/or our customers’ information. Since techniques used to obtain unauthorized access change frequently and the impact and severity of security breaches are increasing, we may be unable to implement adequate preventative measures or timely identify or stop security breaches while they are occurring.
We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches or to remediate the subsequent risks and issues caused by such breaches. Our security measures are designed to protect against security breaches, but our failure to prevent such security breaches could cause us to incur significant expense to investigate and respond to a security breach and remediate any problems caused by any breach, subject us to liability, damage our reputation, and diminish the value of our brand. There can be no assurance that the limitations of liability in our contracts would be enforceable or adequate or would otherwise protect us from any such liabilities or damages with respect to any claim. We also cannot be sure that our existing insurance coverage for errors and omissions or security breaches will continue to be available on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or that our insurers will not deny coverage as to any future claim. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceeds our available insurance coverage, or changes in our insurance policies, including additional exclusions, premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We may not be able to hire and/or retain personnel that we need.
To increase market awareness and sales of our offerings, we may need to expand our marketing efforts and sales operations in the future. Our products and services require a sophisticated sales effort and significant technical engineering talent. For example, our sales and engineering candidates must possess consultative experience and a high degree of technical acumen, including hardware and software knowledge, to create customized solutions for our customers’ business processes. Competition for qualified sales, marketing and engineering personnel fluctuates depending on market conditions. We are currently experiencing a competitive labor market for certain sales and technical roles. New laws requiring public posting of compensation information may also contribute to wage increases. If we are unable to pass these increases to our customers, our financial results may be adversely affected. We provide certain professional and managed services under fixed price contracts. If we fail to accurately estimate our costs, including due to wage or other inflation, then the profitability of our contracts may be adversely affected. Wage inflation may adversely impact our ability to hire and retain personnel, which may impact our ability to acquire, retain and serve our customers.
Additionally, operating platforms are becoming increasingly technologically advanced, providing more automation, which will require personnel with digital, data analytics, machine learning, robotic process automation and AI experience. This type of talent may be highly sought after by other employers, and may be unavailable, or only available at a higher cost to us.
While the Board and management engage in regular succession planning discussions, the loss of senior leaders or the failure to successfully implement a succession plan, particularly for the Chief Executive Officer, could adversely affect our ability to execute strategies and manage operations. In addition, changes in our Board of Directors (“Board”) could impact our business including formulation, alignment or execution of strategy or appropriate oversight as tasked by our Board.
In addition, changes to immigration laws and interpretations thereof may impact our ability to hire or retain talent. In some cases, our competitors have required their employees to agree to non-compete and/or non-solicitation agreements as part of their employment, and in some cases, we may not be able to enforce similar restrictions. Both scenarios present challenges and potential costs. Additionally, in some cases our relationship with a customer may be impacted by turnover in our sales or engineering teams.

Any financial losses of our customers that inhibit their ability to pay us may have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Our customers may experience financial losses and may be unable to pay us for their purchases or multi-year agreements (such as maintenance or software subscription agreements) or repayment may be extended by our customers or us. Economic slowdowns or recessions could lead to our customers’ financial losses and may adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.
We may experience a reduction in incentives offered to us and earned by us from our vendors that would affect our earnings.
We receive payments and credits from vendors, including consideration pursuant to volume incentive programs, shared support programs, and shared marketing expense programs. These programs are usually of finite terms and may not be renewed or may be discontinued or changed in ways that adversely affect us. Vendor funding is used to offset inventory costs, costs of goods sold, marketing costs and other operating expenses. Certain of these funds are based on our volume of purchases, growth rate of purchases, marketing programs and shared support programs. Supply chain constraints may affect our ability to meet purchase requirements and may affect our and our vendors’ ability to engage in marketing programs. We may not be able to collect outstanding amounts relating to these incentives in a timely manner, or at all. Any sizeable reduction in, the discontinuance of, a significant delay in receiving, or the inability to collect such incentives, particularly related to incentive programs with our largest vendors, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
If we are unable to identify acquisition candidates, or perform sufficient due diligence prior to completing an acquisition, or fail to successfully integrate a completed acquisition, or identify an opportunity for or successfully complete an asset disposition, our earnings may be affected.
Mergers and acquisitions are significant factors in our growth strategy. If we fail to identify businesses available for purchase or at an acceptable valuation, our growth strategy may be negatively affected and, as such, may negatively affect our results of operations. Additionally, if we fail to identify an opportunity or successfully complete an intended asset disposition at a fair valuation or successfully operationally transition the asset, our operations or earnings may be negatively affected. After disposition of an asset, we may fail to make the appropriate strategic decisions relating to the investment of proceeds from the disposition or we may fail to properly protect ourselves from liabilities arising from the disposition.
Our ability to successfully integrate the operations we acquire, reduce costs, or leverage these operations to generate revenue and earnings growth, could significantly impact future revenue and earnings. Integrating acquired operations is a significant challenge. Integration may divert management’s attention from other business concerns, and there is no assurance that we will be able to complete the integrations successfully. Failure to successfully integrate acquired operations may adversely affect our cost structure thereby reducing our earnings and return on investment. In addition, we may fail to perform adequate due diligence and acquire entities with unknown liabilities, fraud, cultural, data security, or business environment issues, or that may not have adequate internal controls.
If we acquire a company that does not fit culturally, strategically, or in some other fashion, the acquisition may not produce the expected results or may negatively affect our reputation, which may negatively affect our business, results of operations, or cash flows. The unpredictability of the economy, product constraints, and inflation will also make it difficult to properly value or anticipate the future success of acquisition targets and impact our overall growth strategy.
The terms of our WFCDF Credit Facility or loss thereof may restrict our current and future operations, which could adversely affect our ability to respond to changes in our business and to manage our operations.
Our business, primarily through our subsidiary e Plus Technology, inc., finances its operations with funds generated from operations, and with a credit facility with Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC, and its agents (“WFCDF”). This facility provides short-term capital for certain of our business entities. There are two components of the WFCDF credit facility (collectively, the “WFCDF Credit Facility”): (1) a floor plan facility and (2) a revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2026, the facility agreement had an aggregate limit of the two components of $500 million, together with a sublimit for the revolving credit facility component for up to $200 million.

Table of Contents
The loss of or reduction in the WFCDF Credit Facility could have a material adverse effect on our future results as we rely on this facility and its components for daily working capital and the operational function of our accounts payable process. Our credit agreement contains various covenants that must be met and either party may terminate the agreement for any reason with 90 days’ notice. There can be no assurance that we will continue to meet those covenants and failure to do so may limit availability of, or cause us to lose, such financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will continue to be available to us in the future and on acceptable terms.
Issues relating to the use or capabilities of AI, including legal, social, ethical, and accuracy issues, in hardware, software and services offerings may result in reputational harm and liability and increased costs.
Legal, social, ethical, and accuracy issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies (such as AI) in our hardware, software, and service offerings, as well as in our internal platforms, may result in incorrect decisions, reputational harm and legal liability. The hardware, software, and services we offer increasingly utilize AI, and, as with many innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its adoption, and therefore our business. If we use, enable, or offer AI solutions that cause damage to systems or data or draw controversy due to their perceived or actual impact on individuals, entities, or society, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. Increased focus and potential government regulation in the space of AI ethics and efficacy may also increase the burden and cost of research and development in this area, subjecting us to brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. Failure by us or others in our industry to address AI ethical and legal issues could undermine public confidence in AI and slow adoption of AI in our products and services.
Additionally, the development, adoption and use of AI is growing, and ineffective or inadequate AI development or deployment practices by us or our vendors could result in unintended consequences. AI technologies are complex and rapidly evolving, and we face significant competition in the market and from other companies regarding such technologies.
We may not have adequately designed or maintained our IT platforms for internal use or solutions we offer to our customers or have adequate or competent IT personnel to support our business, or we may have inadequate training and technology safeguards to prevent a cyber event.
We depend heavily upon the accuracy and reliability of our IT, telecommunication, cybersecurity, and other platforms which are used for customer management, sales, distribution, marketing, purchasing, inventory management, order processing and fulfillment, customer service and general accounting functions. We must continually maintain, secure, and improve our systems. We may not properly select or implement software which may result in the lack of data integrity within or between systems, increase our costs or impair our control environment or may lead to other negative impacts on our business or results. We may need to implement new software, or update existing software and processes, to be compliant with rapidly evolving regulations, including data privacy laws, which may incur costs and impact data integrity. As we increasingly rely on cloud-based enterprise applications to support critical business functions, our operational performance depends in part on the availability, reliability, and proper integration of these externally hosted systems. The protections we have in place address a variety of threats to our information technology systems, both internal and external, including human error. Inadequate security practices or design of our IT systems, or IT systems from third parties which we utilize, or third-party service providers’ failure to provide adequate services could result in the disclosure of sensitive or confidential information or personal information or cause other business interruptions that could damage our reputation and disrupt our business. Inadequate design or interruption of our information systems, telecommunications systems or power failures could have a material adverse effect on our business, our reputation, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. The current product constraints may increase our costs or cause a delay in purchasing IT products needed to support our internal infrastructure or operations, resulting in an impact on our technology operations and availability of our IT systems, which could result in an adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
We are increasingly utilizing AI in our business, including interactions with our employees, customers, and vendors and in the hardware, software, and services we consume, and we also plan to further invest resources to embed AI capabilities throughout our operations and enterprise to drive scale and efficiency. As with many innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its adoption and usage, and therefore our business. If we are unable to effectively and timely capitalize on the opportunities made available by the adoption of AI to drive our scale and efficiency, our business, results of operations, or cash flows could be adversely impacted. Further, the responsible development and deployment of AI requires ongoing investment in research, development and governance, which could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows.

Our managed services segment requires us to monitor our customers’ devices on their networks across varying levels of service. If we have not designed our IT systems to provide this service accurately or if there is a security breach in our IT system or the customers’ systems, we may be liable for claims. In addition, we rely on our managed services personnel to perform this monitoring service. Insufficient staffing, or improper training, performance, or supervision may negatively affect the services we provide our customers resulting in decreased revenue and the potential for litigation.
Products as complex as those used to provide our solutions and services, including our cloud automation solutions, can contain unknown and undetected errors, performance problems, or use open-source code. We may identify serious defects following the introduction of new products or enhancements to existing products. Undetected errors or performance problems may be discovered in the future and certain errors we consider to be minor may be deemed serious by our customers.
Our products and our automation solutions may be inadvertently harmed, such as during a product integration or upgrade, or may be circumvented or sabotaged by third parties such as hackers, which could result in the disclosure of sensitive information or personal information, unauthorized procurement, or cause other business interruptions that could damage our reputation and disrupt our business. Attacks may range from random attempts to coordinated and targeted attacks, including sophisticated computer crime and advanced persistent threats. In addition, our customers may experience a loss in connectivity to our proprietary solutions because of a power loss at our data center, interruption in internet availability, or defects in our solutions. This could result in lost revenues, business interruption, delays in customer acceptance, security breaches, and unforeseen liabilities that could be detrimental to our reputation and to our business.
We rely on the competency of our internal IT personnel. Our failure to hire, develop, retain, and supervise competent IT personnel to secure our data, as well as design and maintain a resilient technology ecosystem including our data and voice networks, infrastructure, and applications, could significantly interrupt our business causing a negative impact on our results. Additionally, along with our technological safeguards, we rely on our employees’ vigilance and security awareness to protect against cyber-based attacks. Our failure to sufficiently train and supervise our employees to guard against such attacks could result in a significant interruption in our business, and negative impact on our results of operations.
Our results of operations are subject to financial losses due to translation of foreign currency.
We have several foreign subsidiaries and conduct business in various countries and currencies. As result of these foreign operations, we have exposure to financial losses on translation due to fluctuations in foreign currency rates resulting primarily from the translation exposure associated with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. While our consolidated financial statements are reported in US dollars, the financial statements of our subsidiaries outside the US are prepared using the local currency as the functional currency and translated into US dollars. As a result, fluctuations in the exchange rate of the US dollar relative to the functional currencies of our subsidiaries could cause financial losses in our results of operations. However, our operations in foreign countries are not material. We also have foreign currency exposure to the extent net sales and purchases are not denominated in a subsidiary’s functional currency, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or cash flows.

A natural disaster or other adverse event at one of our primary configuration centers, warehouses, data centers, or a third-party provider location could negatively impact our business.
We have configuration centers, warehouses, and data centers in the US, as well as through third-party providers in the UK and Netherlands. The configuration centers and warehouses contain inventory owned by us and our customers and serve as distribution centers for orders we do not dropship directly to the customer. We perform services in these facilities such as product configuration and other professional services, and warehouse and logistics services. If the configuration centers or surrounding infrastructure were to be seriously damaged or disrupted by a natural disaster or other adverse event, including disruption related to political or social unrest, we could utilize another distribution center or third-party distributors to ship products to our customers. However, this may not be sufficient to avoid interruptions in our service, or the loss of inventory at that location may prevent us from meeting all the needs of our customers and may cause us to incur incremental operating costs. Also, we rely on energy and internet access in these facilities. Any disruption to the energy market could result in increased energy costs to run the facilities and transport our products and any disruption in internet services to these locations could interrupt services conducted in the facilities. In addition, we operate facilities which may contain both business-critical data and confidential information of our customers and third parties, such as data center co-locations and hosted solution partners. A natural disaster or other adverse event at locations such as these or third-party provider locations could negatively impact our business, results of operations or cash flows.
We may be required to take impairment charges for goodwill or other intangible assets related to acquisitions.
We have acquired certain portions of our business and assets through acquisitions. Further, as part of our long-term business strategy, we may continue to pursue acquisitions of other companies or assets. In connection with prior acquisitions, we have accounted for the portion of the purchase price paid in excess of the book value of the assets acquired as goodwill or intangible assets, and we may be required to account for similar premiums paid on future acquisitions in the same manner.
Under the applicable accounting principles, goodwill is not amortized and is carried on our books at its original value, subject to annual review and evaluation for impairment, whereas intangible assets are amortized over the life of the asset. Changes in the business itself, the economic environment (including business valuation levels and trends), or the legislative or regulatory environment may trigger a review and evaluation of our goodwill and intangible assets for potential impairment outside of the normal review periods. These changes may adversely affect either the fair value of the business or our individual reporting units and we may be required to take an impairment charge.
If market and economic conditions deteriorate, this could increase the likelihood that we will need to record impairment charges to the extent the carrying value of our goodwill exceeds the fair value of our overall business. Such impairment charges could materially adversely affect our net earnings during the period in which the impairment is realized. As of March 31, 2026, we had a carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets of $202.9 million and $61.3 million, respectively.
Actual or anticipated epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks, or other public health crises may adversely affect our customers’ and vendors’ financial condition and the operations of our business.
Our business could be materially and adversely affected by the impact of any epidemic, pandemic, outbreak, or other public health crisis. The risk of any epidemic, pandemic, outbreak, or other public health crisis could cause customers to delay or cancel orders and could cause temporary or long-term disruptions in our supply chains and/or delays in the delivery of our products and services to our customers. Quarantines or other cancellations of public events as well as governmental containment actions could also adversely affect our customers’ financial condition, resulting in reduced spending for the products and services we sell or uncollectible accounts receivable, leases or notes receivable or our customers’ ability to receive goods we ship to their locations. Moreover, any epidemic, pandemic, outbreak, or other public health crisis could adversely affect our ability to adequately staff and manage our businesses. Risks or regulations related to an epidemic, pandemic, or other health crisis may continue to lead to the complete or partial closure of one or more of our offices, configuration centers, or warehouse, or the operations of our customers or our sourcing partners. Office closures of our customers may reduce our ability to provide onsite professional services and staffing.
We may not achieve the operational and financial results that we anticipated after completing the sale of our financing business.
Our operational and financial profile has changed as a result of completing the sale of our financing business to Marlin Leasing Corporation (d/b/a PEAC Solutions) on June 30, 2025 pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement. As a result, our diversification of revenue sources will be reduced, and our results of operations, cash flows, working capital and financing requirements may be subject to increased volatility and greater risk as a result of our business being concentrated solely as a provider of technology solutions through our product, professional services, and managed services segments. The anticipated benefits to us from the sale of the financing business are based on a number of assumptions, some of which may prove incorrect. Any such incorrect assumption could result in some or all of the anticipated benefits not being realized and adversely affecting our business, results of operations or financial condition. Further, our ability to receive the additional Contingent Consideration (as defined in Note 16 , “Fair Value Measurements”) contemplated by the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement is based on the post-Closing performance of the HoldCo Group, as operated by PEAC Solutions, and, as a result, we may not receive some or all of the Contingent Consideration as we currently expect.

General economic weakness may harm our operating results and financial condition.
Our results of operations are largely dependent upon the state of the economy. Global and domestic economic weakness, economic recession, trade wars or trade disruption, energy market disruption, inflation, rising costs and interest rates, and other economic uncertainties may result in increased expenses or decreased sales, gross margin, earnings, and/or growth rates from our US-based customers and from customers outside the US. Actions taken by central banks to counter inflation or weakness in the global banking industry, sustained uncertainty about global political conditions, the downgrade of the US debt rating, periods of intense diplomatic or armed conflict, government spending cuts and the impact of new laws, regulations, or government policies (including the introduction of new or increased taxes, the imposition of minimum taxes or new or increased limitations on deductions, credits or other tax benefits), or a tightening of credit markets, or rising interest rates, could cause our customers and potential customers to postpone, reduce or stop spending on technology products or services which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or cash flows.
We depend on continued competitive innovations in hardware, software, and service offerings by our vendors, and our ability to partner with new and emerging technology providers and adapt to changes in the IT industry.
The technology industry is characterized by rapid innovation and the frequent introduction of new and enhanced hardware, software, and service offerings, such as generative and agentic AI, and cloud-based solutions, including IaaS, SaaS, and PaaS. We depend on innovations in hardware, software, and service offerings by our vendors, as well as the acceptance of those innovations by our customers for the offerings we sell. A decrease in the rate of innovation by our vendors, or the lack of acceptance of innovations by our customers, or a shift by customers to technology platforms that we do not sell could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or cash flows.
Further, new technology offerings and developments may disrupt the provision of our services and could adversely affect us. For example, the increase in demand for servers, chips and equipment to support the surge in AI usage, has created an industry wide shortage in the availability of memory and computer storage at an enterprise level, which may impact our ability to deliver these solutions if we do not identify opportunities when needed to reclaim sufficient memory capacity.
In addition, if we are unable to keep up with changes in technology and new hardware, software, and service offerings––for example, by not providing the appropriate training to our account managers, sales technology specialists and engineers to enable them to effectively sell and deliver such new offerings to customers––our business, results of operations or cash flows could be adversely affected.
We also depend upon our vendors for the development and marketing of hardware, software, and services to compete effectively with hardware, software, and services of vendors whose products and services we do not currently offer or are not authorized to offer in one or more customer channels. In addition, our success depends on our ability to develop relationships with and sell hardware, software, and services from emerging vendors, as well as vendors that we have not historically represented in the marketplace. To the extent that a vendor’s offering that is highly in demand is not available to us for resale in one or more customer channels, and there is not a competitive offering from another vendor that we are authorized to sell in such customer channels, or we are unable to develop relationships with new technology providers or companies that we have not historically represented, or we partner with a vendor that is not in demand or the demand for whose products significantly decreases, our business, results of operations, or cash flows could be adversely impacted.

Cloud offerings may influence our customers to move workloads to cloud providers, which may reduce the procurement of products and alter or reduce services from us. Changes in the IT industry may also affect the demand for our advanced professional and managed services. These ‘as a service’ offerings in many cases are recorded on a net basis which results in a reduction of net sales and an increase in gross margin, or on a ratable basis. Over the past several years, we have seen a significant increase in gross billings recorded on a net basis and a ratable basis due to the industry shift to ‘as a service’ offerings. We have invested a significant amount of capital in our strategy to provide certain products and services, and this strategy may adversely impact our financial position due to competition or changes in the industry or improper focus or selection of the products and services we decide to offer. If we fail to react in a timely manner to such changes, such as generative AI or insufficient memory capacity, our results of operations may be adversely affected. Our sales can be dependent on demand for specific product categories, and any change in demand for, or supply of, such products could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Risks Related to Laws and Regulations
Failure to comply with new laws or changes to existing laws may adversely impact our business.
Our operations are subject to numerous US and foreign laws and regulations in several areas including, but not limited to, areas of labor and employment, immigration, advertising, e-commerce, patent and copyright, tax, import and export requirements, financing, anti-corruption, data privacy requirements, anti-competition, and environmental, health, and safety. We are also subject to a vast number of evolving laws at the local, state and federal levels, including employment and data privacy laws, and securities laws. We, our customers, vendors, and industry are experiencing significant changes in the enforcement of, guidance relating to, and the application of, laws. Rapid changes in trade-related laws and Executive Orders including tariffs, import/export regulations, and sanctions is creating uncertainty and complexity in supply chain management. We anticipate that these changes will materially impact our costs and will largely result in our passing tariffs onto our customers. Compliance with these laws, regulations, and Executive Orders may be onerous and expensive. The laws and regulations may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and may be repeatedly and unpredictably modified, rescinded, or stayed by legislative bodies, regulatory agencies, and/or courts, further increasing the cost of compliance, and doing business, and the risk of noncompliance. We have implemented policies and procedures designed to help comply with applicable laws and regulations, but there can be no certainty that our employees, contractors, or agents will fully comply with laws and regulations or our policies and procedures. Additionally, as our customers and vendors implement policies and processes for their own compliance with current, anticipated, and pending laws and regulations, they may impose requirements on us, which we may not be able to timely and cost-effectively fulfill.
We may not adequately protect ourselves through our contract vehicles, or our insurance policies may not be adequate to address potential losses or claims.
Our contracts may not protect us against the risks inherent in our business including, but not limited to, rapid price increases and resulting order cancellations, warranties, limitations of liability, indemnification obligations, human resources and subcontractor-related claims, patent and product liability, regulatory and compliance obligations, data security and privacy, and financing activities. Also, we face pressure from our customers for competitive pricing and contract terms. In addition, order cancellations by our customers may result from product constraints, or other economic concerns. While we may mitigate risk through our contracts, if orders are cancelled by our customers, we may have an increased risk of dispute resulting in non-payment. Such disputes may be complicated by novel legal arguments relating to contract enforceability, such as the application of force majeure, impossibility or impracticability of performance, and frustration of purpose.
We also are subject to audits by various vendors and customers, including government agencies, relating to purchases, sales, data privacy and compliance under various contracts. In addition, we are subject to indemnification claims under various contracts.

Table of Contents
Failure to comply with our public-sector contracts or applicable laws and regulations could result in, among other things, termination, fines or other liabilities, and changes in procurement regulations could adversely impact our business.
Revenues in our public sector are derived from sales to SLED customers, through various contracts and open market sales of products and services. Sales to SLED customers are highly regulated and SLED customer purchases are subject to availability of funds from taxation, grants, or other sources including the federal government. Noncompliance with contract provisions, government procurement regulations, or other applicable laws or regulations could result in civil, criminal, and administrative liability, including substantial monetary fines or damages, termination of SLED sector customer contracts, and suspension, debarment, or ineligibility from doing business with the government and other customers in the SLED sector. Contracts in the SLED sector are generally terminable at any time for convenience of the contracting agency or upon default and are subject to audits. In addition, most contracts require successfully bidding and award of the contract. These bid processes can be complex and require extensive review of terms and conditions and data compilation. Multiple bidders may win a product category, which creates aggressive competition even after contract award. We are currently experiencing rapid price increases by vendors, and our SLED contracts may not allow us to pass these increases to our SLED customers. The effect of any of these possible actions could adversely affect our business, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, the adoption of new or modified procurement regulations and other requirements may increase our compliance costs and reduce our gross margins, which could have a negative effect on our business, results of operations, or cash flows.
We face risks of claims from third parties for intellectual property infringement, including counterfeit products, which could harm our business.
We may be subject to claims that our products and services, or products that we resell, infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties and/or are counterfeit products. In addition, decreased product accessibility may foster more counterfeit product availability, including components within products that we purchase, and we may be subject to claims by our customers, vendors, or suppliers for unknowingly selling these types of products. The vendor of certain products or services we resell may not provide us with indemnification for infringement or otherwise; however, our customers may seek indemnification from us. We could incur substantial costs in defending infringement claims against ourselves and our customers. In the event of such claims, we and our customers may be required to obtain one or more licenses from third parties. We may not be able to obtain such licenses from third parties at a reasonable cost or at all. Defense of any lawsuit or failure to obtain any such required license could significantly increase our expenses and/or adversely affect our ability to offer one or more of our services.
We may be unable to protect our intellectual property and costs to protect our intellectual property may affect our earnings.
The success of our business strategy depends, in part, upon proprietary technology and other intellectual property rights. To date, we have relied primarily on a combination of copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws, and contractual provisions with our customers, subcontractors, and employees to protect our proprietary technology. It may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our products or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Some of our agreements with our customers and technology licensors contain residual clauses regarding confidentiality and the rights of third parties to obtain the source code for our products. These provisions may limit our ability to protect our intellectual property rights in the future that could seriously harm our business and operating results. Our means of protecting our intellectual property rights may not be adequate.
The legal and associated costs to protect our intellectual property in the US and foreign jurisdictions may significantly increase our expenses and have a material adverse effect on our operating results. We may deem it necessary to protect our intellectual property rights and significant expenses could be incurred with no certainty of the results of these potential actions. Costs relative to lawsuits are usually expensed in the periods incurred and there is no certainty of recouping any of the amounts expended regardless of the outcome of any action.
Risks Related to Ownership of our Stock
Our common stock price may be volatile and may decline regardless of our operating performance, and holders of our common stock could lose a significant portion of their investment.
The market price for our common stock may be volatile. Our stockholders may not be able to resell their shares of common stock at or above the price at which they purchased such shares, due to fluctuations in the market price of our common stock, which may be caused by several factors, many of which we cannot control, including the risk factors described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the following:
19
Table of Contents
• changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our common stock, and our failure to meet these estimates or failure of securities;
• our failure to achieve our financial guidance estimates;
• significant variations in our quarterly results of operations;
• analysts maintaining coverage of our common stock;
• downgrades by any securities analysts who follow our common stock;
• future sales of our common stock by our officers, directors, and significant stockholders;
• market conditions or trends in our industry or the economy as a whole including market expectations of changing interest rates;
• the inability to conclude that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective;
• investors’ perceptions of our prospects;
• announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, or capital commitments; and
• changes in key personnel.
In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies, including us and companies in our industry. In the past, securities class action litigation has followed periods of market volatility. If we were involved in securities litigation, we could incur substantial costs, and our resources and the attention of management could be diverted from our business.
In the future, we may also issue our securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The number of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock and depress our stock price.
There can be no assurance that we will continue to declare and pay dividends to our common stockholders.
Any determination to declare dividends for holders of our common stock in the future will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects, capital requirements, contractual restrictions (including in current or future agreements governing our indebtedness), restrictions imposed by applicable law, market conditions, tax considerations and other factors our Board deems relevant. There can be no assurance that we will continue to declare and issue dividends for holders of our common stock and, therefore, the future realization of a gain on our stockholders’ investment will depend entirely on the appreciation of the price of our common stock and/or share repurchases, which may never occur.
There can be no assurance that we will continue to repurchase any of our common stock under our share repurchase program.
Any determination to repurchase shares of our common stock in the future will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects, capital requirements, contractual restrictions (including in current or future agreements governing our indebtedness), restrictions imposed by applicable law, market conditions, tax considerations and other factors our Board deems relevant. There can be no assurance that we will continue to repurchase shares of our common stock and, therefore, the future realization of a gain on our stockholders’ investment will depend entirely on the appreciation of the price of our common stock and/or dividends, which may never occur.
Future offerings of debt or equity securities, which would rank senior to our common stock, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
If, in the future, we decide to issue debt or equity securities that rank senior to our common stock, it is likely that such securities will be governed by an indenture or other instrument containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences, and privileges more favorable than those of our common stock and may result in dilution to owners of our common stock. We and, indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of our future offerings, if any. Thus, holders of our common stock will bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our common stock and diluting the value of their holdings in our common stock.

CYBERSECURITY
We believe that cybersecurity and business resilience are critical to advancing our corporate vision and enabling our digital transformation efforts. As a technology services provider, we are faced with a multitude of diverse cybersecurity threats that range from common attacks such as ransomware, denial of service, and social engineering to more advanced attacks leveraging sophisticated AI-enabled tools from nation-state actors that might target our ecosystem through our specific company industry verticals. Any such cybersecurity threats could affect our customers, vendors, service providers, subcontractors and/or employees, and a cybersecurity threat to us or any of these entities could materially and adversely affect our business strategy, financial condition, performance, our brand and our results of operations.
We have a dedicated team of information security professionals (our “information security team”) who lead our enterprise-wide cybersecurity strategy, which includes risk management, cyber defense, systems security, security monitoring and other related functions. This team is overseen by our Senior Director of Information Security (“SDIS”) who reports to our Chief Information Officer (“CIO”). The SDIS has over 25 years of experience in the field of cybersecurity and is responsible for our overall information security and systems resilience strategy, security engineering and operations, cyber threat detection and response, and related policy recommendations. In addition, our SDIS has a significant background in general information technology and program management. Our information security team manages our robust enterprise security structure, which is designed to prevent cybersecurity incidents, while simultaneously increasing our technology resilience to minimize the associated business impact of cybersecurity threats. Core to our information security team’s structure is our security incident response team, which is responsible for the protection, detection, global threat level monitoring, and overall response/countermeasure capabilities in defense of our corporate resources and assets. Furthermore, we believe strongly in a supportive and collaborative culture of security, whereby all of our employees maintain a role in our corporate cybersecurity posture, including but not limited to their required participation in periodic training and risk management exercises throughout the year.
The processes overseen by our information security team are integrated with our enterprise risk management (“ERM”) program , including routine reporting to our executive team on cyber risk through the different levels of our ERM governance structure including our risk management frameworks and processes. We undergo routine testing of both the design and operational effectiveness of our security controls, consult with industry leaders on best practices, and ensure alignment with relevant industry frameworks and laws, as well as auditing by our internal audit team. Our cybersecurity program consists of policies, practices and procedures designed to manage material risks from cybersecurity threats, including training requirements, threat monitoring and detection, threat containment and risk assessments. In addition to our policies and procedures designed to manage and identify cybersecurity risks, we maintain an incident response plan designed to contain, analyze, remediate, and communicate cybersecurity matters to help ensure a timely and appropriate response to cybersecurity incidents.
Additionally, we engage third-party firms to conduct routine external and internal penetration testing of our information systems to emulate the common tactics and techniques of cyber threat actors, and we have developed processes to remediate identified vulnerabilities across a wide range of severities. We have policies and procedures to oversee and identify the cybersecurity risks associated with our use of certain third-party service providers. These policies and procedures include onboarding risk assessments prior to commencing a customer engagement and, as appropriate based on identified risk, may include either cybersecurity-related contractual terms and/or periodic risk assessments throughout the life cycle of the third-party relationship. We maintain cybersecurity insurance coverage that we believe is appropriate for the size and complexity of our business to cover certain costs related to the remediation of cybersecurity incidents.
Our Board has ultimate oversight of our cybersecurity risk, which it oversees as part of our ERM program. The CIO and SDIS regularly provide reporting on cybersecurity to both our executive management and our Board. This reporting includes updates on our information security strategy and organizational structure, key cyber risks and threats, progress related to various initiatives designed to protect us from such risks and threats, assessments of our cybersecurity program and emerging trends, including those related to the use of AI as both a threat and a defense mechanism. Depending on the criticality of a cybersecurity incident and in accordance with our incident response plan, certain matters are required to be reported promptly to the Board, as appropriate.

Table of Contents
As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any cybersecurity threats or incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, financial condition, or our brand. However, we cannot provide assurance that such threats will not be discovered, occur, or result in such an impact in the future. For more information regarding risks relating to information technology and cybersecurity, please refer to I tem 1A . “Risk Factors.”

PROPERTIES
As of March 31, 2026, we leased a total of 497 thousand square feet of office and warehouse space across 22 properties, primarily in the US, that are used across all our business segments. Our leases expire at varied dates over the next 10 years. On April 1, 2026, we signed an 8-year lease for a new headquarters in Herndon, Virginia. We have certain employees that work at customer sites, their homes, or other locations. Additionally, we utilize coworking spaces in certain cities.
We do not anticipate any difficulty in retaining occupancy through lease renewals, month-to-month occupancy, or replacing leased properties with equivalent properties. We believe that suitable additional or substitute leased properties will be available as required.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations (the “financial review”) of ePlus is intended to help investors understand our company and our operations. The financial review is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Unless specifically stated, all discussions below reflect continuing operations for all periods presented.
We have revised our results to reflect the correction of certain misstatements in previously issued financial statements for fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, which we determined are not material either individually or in aggregate. Please refer to Note 2, “Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On June 30, 2025, we completed the sale of 100% of the membership interests of Expo Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“HoldCo”), to Marlin Leasing Corporation, a Delaware corporation (d/b/a PEAC Solutions) pursuant to the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated June 20, 2025 (the “Sale Transaction”). By selling HoldCo, together with its U.S. subsidiaries, we sold our domestic financing business that comprised most of our financing business segment, which is a business that finances information technology equipment, software and related services for customers. We continue to own the international entities in the financing business. This divestiture positions us to focus on being a technology solutions provider and represents a strategic shift in our operations. As a result of the Sale Transaction, we determined that the domestic financing business that was sold met the definition of discontinued operations. Consequently, for all periods presented in these financial statements, we are retrospectively presenting the results of our domestic financing business as discontinued operations. In our audited consolidated balance sheets for all periods, we present the assets and liabilities of our domestic financing business as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations. In our audited consolidated statements of operations for all periods, we present the operating results of our domestic financing business in earnings from discontinued operations. After the Sale Transaction, our remaining three reportable segments are product, professional services, and managed services, which we formerly referred to collectively as our technology business. Please refer to Note 5 , “Discontinued Operations” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
Business Trends
We believe the following key factors may impact our business performance and our ability to achieve business results:
●
General economic conditions including changes in law and policy by the US government, inflation, tariffs, export requirements, sanctions, changing interest rates, staffing shortages, remote work trends, geopolitical concerns and changes in US government spending and contracting practices may impact our customers’ willingness to spend on IT and services.
●
There is a worldwide shortage of memory chips due to the demand for AI-ready products, which is also causing rapid price increases across many IT products. Like others, we may experience ongoing supply constraints for memory chips that may affect lead times for delivery of products, our having to carry more inventory for longer periods, costs of products for us and our customers, vendor return and cancellation policies, and our ability to meet customer demands. We continue to work closely with our vendors to mitigate disruptions outside our control. Despite these actions, we believe extended lead times and price increases will likely persist for at least the next few quarters.
●
Our customers’ top focus areas include AI, security, cloud solutions, as well as digital transformation and modernization. We have developed advisory services, assessments, solutions, and professional and managed services to meet these priorities and help our customers attain and maintain their desired outcomes.
●
Modernizing legacy applications, data modernization, reducing operational complexity, securing workloads, the cost and performance of IT operations, and agility are changing the way companies are purchasing and consuming technology. These are fueling deployments of solutions on cloud, managed services and hybrid platforms and licensing models, which may include invoicing over the term of the engagement and may result in additional revenue recognized on a net basis.
●
Rapid cloud adoption has led to customer challenges around increasing costs, security concerns, and skillset gaps. These challenges are consistent across all industries and business sizes. We have developed a Cloud Managed Services portfolio to address these needs, allowing our clients to focus on driving business outcomes via optimized and secure cloud platforms.
●
The IT industry continues to shift from upfront, product-based purchasing toward subscription and consumption-based (“ratable”) models, driven by increased adoption of cloud computing, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”), and as-a-service infrastructure offerings. This transition is changing customer buying behavior, elongating revenue recognition periods and increasing revenues recognized on a net basis, and increasing the importance of recurring revenue streams, while also placing greater emphasis on lifecycle management, financing capabilities, and vendor-aligned service delivery.

Key Business Metrics
Our management monitors several financial and non-financial measures and ratios on a regular basis to track the progress of our business. We believe that the most important of these measures and ratios include net sales, gross profit, gross margin, operating income, net earnings, and net earnings per common share, in each case based on information prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”), as well as the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share - diluted.
We also use a variety of operating and other information to evaluate the operating performance of our business, develop financial forecasts, make strategic decisions, and prepare and approve our annual budgets. We use gross billings as an operational metric to assess the volume of transactions or market share for our product, professional services, and managed services segments, as well as to understand changes in our accounts receivable and accounts payable balances and our statement of cash flows. We believe our gross billings metric will aid investors in the same manner to evaluate our business.
These key indicators include financial information that is prepared in accordance with US GAAP and presented in our consolidated financial statements, as well as non-GAAP and operational performance measurement tools. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance or financial position that either excludes or includes amounts that are correspondingly not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Our use of non-GAAP information as an analytical tool has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results reported under GAAP, as these measures used by management may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP: net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: net earnings from continuing operations per common share - diluted as supplemental measures of our performance to gain insight into our operating performance and performance trends. We believe that these measures provide management and investors with a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business and operating results by excluding items that management believes are not reflective of our underlying operating performance. Accordingly, we believe that such non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results.

Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share – diluted are based on net earnings from continuing operations calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted to exclude other (income) expense, net, share-based compensation, acquisition related expenses, acquisition related amortization expense, and the related tax effects.
We believe that the exclusion of other income and acquisition-related amortization expense in calculating Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share – diluted provides management and investors a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business and operating results by excluding items that management believes are not reflective of our underlying operating performance, which helps in understanding and evaluating our operating results. We use Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share – diluted as supplemental measures of our performance to gain and provide insight into our operating performance and performance trends. However, our use of non-GAAP information as an analytical tool has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under US GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate similar Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations and Non-GAAP: Net earnings from continuing operations per common share – diluted, or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures. Our acquisition related expenses for the year ended March 31, 2025, are related to our acquisition of Bailiwick Services, LLC (“Bailiwick”).

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings from continuing operations calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted for the following: interest and financing costs, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, acquisition related expenses, provision for income taxes, interest and financing costs and other (income), net. In the table below, we provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable financial measure to this non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA margin is our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.
We believe that the exclusion of other income in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provides management and investors with a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business and operating results by excluding items that management believes are not reflective of our underlying operating performance, which helps in the understanding and evaluation of our operating results. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance to gain and provide insight into our operating performance and performance trends. However, our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as analytical tools has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under US GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, or similarly titled measures, differently which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.

Gross billings are the total dollar value of customer purchases of goods and services including shipping charges during the period, net of customer returns, credit memos, and sales or other taxes. Gross billings include the transaction values for certain sales transactions that are recognized on a net basis, and, therefore, include amounts that will not be recognized as revenue.
Results of Operations
The Year Ended March 31, 2026, Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 2025
Net sales : Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $442.4 million compared to the prior fiscal year, due to increased net sales to customers in the telecom, media and entertainment, healthcare, technology, retail, and financial services industries, offset by decreased net sales to customers in the SLED industry. Our increase in sales was primarily driven by large enterprise customers. For further information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.
Gross profit : Gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $104.0 million compared to the prior fiscal year due to increases in net sales in all three of our business segments. Overall, gross margin decreased 40 basis points year over year to 25.2%, primarily due to lower product margin led by a shift in product mix as well as a lower percentage of sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions that are recognized on a net basis. Additionally, we had lower services margins. For further information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.
Selling, general, and administrative : Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $36.7 million, compared to the prior fiscal year.
Salaries and benefits, including variable compensation and share-based compensation for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $33.2 million, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increases in variable compensation commensurate with the increase in our gross profit and secondarily due to additional salaries and benefits due to our acquisition of Bailiwick on August 19, 2024.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $4.7 million as compared to the prior fiscal year, due to the addition of Bailiwick. In total, we had higher professional fees of $3.7 million, higher software, subscription, and maintenance fees of $1.4 million, and higher office rent of $0.7 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $1.1 million incurred in the prior fiscal year related to the addition of Bailiwick that are not recurring in the current fiscal year.
Provision for credit losses for the year ended March 31, 2026, was $0.5 million as compared to $1.7 million for the prior fiscal year. Our lower provision for credit losses for the year ended March 31, 2026, was due to favorable changes in our net credit exposure.
Depreciation and amortization : Depreciation and amortization for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased by $0.8 million compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to amortization from intangible assets acquired in the Bailiwick acquisition.
Operating income : As a result of the foregoing, operating income for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased $66.5 million compared to the prior fiscal year, and operating margin increased by 180 basis points to 6.8%.
Other income, net : Other income for the year ended March 31, 2026, was $7.3 million, compared to $6.4 million for the prior fiscal year. Our increase in other income was primarily due to higher interest income and lower foreign exchange losses in the current fiscal year period compared to the prior fiscal year and earnings from our transition services agreement with PEAC Solutions, offset by $4.2 million in expense in the current fiscal year related to adjustments to our estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration due from PEAC Solutions relating to our sale of HoldCo. We had $11.4 million in interest income for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to $7.8 million in the prior fiscal year. We had foreign exchange losses of $0.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to losses of $1.2 million in the prior fiscal year.

Net sales : Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2025, decreased $178.1 million compared to the prior fiscal year, due to decreased net sales to customers in the telecom, media and entertainment, healthcare, and financial services industries, offset by increased net sales to customers in the technology and SLED industries. For additional information, see the “Segment Results of Operations” below.
Gross profit : Gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased $0.4 million compared to the prior fiscal year due to increases in professional and managed services that were partially offset by declines in product sales. Overall, gross margins were up by 210 basis points year over year to 25.6%, primarily due to higher product margins led by a shift in product mix towards sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions that are recognized on a net basis, partially offset by lower services margins.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses : Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased $31.1 million compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, mainly due to increases in salaries and benefits.
Salaries and benefits, including variable compensation for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased $22.9 million compared to the prior fiscal year, due to an increase in salaries and benefits, mainly driven by increased headcount, offset by a decrease in variable compensation. Our business had a total of 2,151 employees as of March 31, 2025, an increase of 299 from 1,852 employees as of March 31, 2024. We added 441 employees on August 19, 2024 from our acquisition of Bailiwick. In total, we increased the number of customer-facing employees by 272 employees as of March 31, 2025, compared to the year ended March 31, 2024.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased $6.9 million as compared to the prior fiscal year. General and administrative expenses were higher mainly due to increases in software, subscription, and maintenance fees, warehouse and logistic fees, and office rent. Our increases in these categories for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to the prior fiscal year, were partially due to our acquisition of Bailiwick in August 2024. Additionally, we incurred $1.1 million in acquisition related expenses due to our acquisition of Bailiwick during the year ended March 31, 2025.
Provision for credit losses for the year ended March 31, 2025, was $1.7 million, as compared to $0.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. Our higher provision for credit losses for the year ended March 31, 2025, was due to an increase in exposure to accounts with higher credit risk.
31
Depreciation and amortization expense : Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to amortization from intangible assets acquired in the Bailiwick acquisition during the year ended March 31, 2025.

Other income (expense), net: Other income for the year ended March 31, 2025, was $6.4 million, compared to $1.4 million, for the year ended March 31, 2024. Higher other income was driven by increased interest income offset by increased foreign exchange losses. We had $7.7 million in interest income for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1.7 million in the prior fiscal year primarily due to our higher cash balances during the year. We had foreign exchange losses of $1.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to a loss of $0.1 million in the prior fiscal year.

Segment Overview
Following the divestiture of our domestic financing business in the Sale Transaction, we organize our business into three reportable segments (which we formerly referred to collectively as the technology business):
●
Product segment: Our product segment consists of the sale of third-party hardware, third-party perpetual and subscription software, and third-party maintenance, software assurance, and other third-party services. The product segment also includes internet-based business-to-business supply chain management solutions for IT products. We endeavor to minimize the cost of sales in our product segment through incentive programs provided by vendors.

Net sales :
Product segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased compared to the prior fiscal year, due to increases in revenue from networking, cloud, and security products, offset by a decline in collaboration products. These increases were driven by the timing of purchases by existing customers, which are determined by their buying cycles and the timing of specific IT-related initiatives. Contributing to the increase, the proportion of our sales that were sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions that are recognized on a net basis decreased for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year.
33
Table of Contents
Professional services segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increases in revenues attributable to the acquisition of Bailiwick.
Managed services segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2026, increased compared to the prior fiscal year, due to ongoing expansion of these service offerings, primarily related to ongoing growth in cloud services and enhanced maintenance support.
Gross margin :
Product segment gross margin for the year ended March 31, 2026, decreased by 20 basis points, from the prior fiscal year due to a shift in product mix and a lower proportion of our sales that were sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions which are recorded on a net basis, partially offset by an increase in vendor consideration. Vendor consideration earned as a percentage of sales for the year ended March 31, 2026 increased by 30 basis points.
Professional services segment gross margin for the year ended March 31, 2026, decreased by 80 basis points, from the prior fiscal year primarily due to our acquisition of Bailiwick whose services have a lower gross margin due to the use of a higher proportion of third parties for delivery than our organic professional services.
Managed services segment gross margin for the year ended March 31, 2026, decreased by 10 basis points, from the prior fiscal year, mainly driven by a decrease in gross margin from our managed services offerings due to increased third-party costs.

Net sales :
Product segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2025, decreased compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, due to decreases in demand and a shift in product mix towards sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions that are recognized on a net basis. These changes were driven by the timing of purchases by existing customers, which are determined by their buying cycles, and the timing of specific IT-related initiatives.
Professional services segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to increases in revenues from the acquisition of Bailiwick.
Managed services segment sales for the year ended March 31, 2025, increased compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, due to ongoing expansion of these service offerings, primarily related to ongoing growth in enhanced maintenance support, cloud services, and service desk services.
35
Gross profit margin :
Product segment margin for the year ended March 31, 2025 , increased by 190 basis points compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, due to a shift in product mix resulting in a higher proportion of sales of third-party maintenance and subscriptions which are recorded on a net basis partially offset by lower margins to certain enterprise customers. Vendor incentives earned as a percentage of product sales for the year ended March 31, 2025 increased by 10 basis points, which had a positive effect on gross margin, as compared to the prior year.
Professional services segment margin for the year ended March 31, 2025 , decreased by 460 basis points, compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, due to our acquisition of Bailiwick whose services tend to have a lower gross margin due to the use of a higher proportion of third parties for delivery than our organic professional services.
Managed services segment margin for the year ended March 31, 2025 , decreased by 110 basis points, compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, due to higher third-party costs incurred for cloud services.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our operations through funds generated from operations and through borrowings. We use those funds to meet our capital requirements, which primarily consist of working capital for operational needs, capital expenditures, mergers and acquisitions, the issuance of dividends and repurchase of shares of our common stock.
We believe that cash on hand and funds generated from operations, together with available credit under our credit facility, will be sufficient to finance our working capital, capital expenditures, and other requirements for at least the next year.
Our ability to continue to expand, both organically and through acquisitions, is dependent upon our ability to generate enough cash flow from operations or from borrowing or other sources of financing as may be required. While at this time we do not anticipate requiring any additional sources of financing to fund our current operations, if demand for IT products declines, or if our supply of products is delayed or interrupted, our cash flows from operations may be substantially affected.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for the years ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 (in thousands):
| Year ended March 31, — 2026 | 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations | $ (117,447 | ) | $ 323,918 | |

Cash flows from operating activities
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we used $117.4 million through operating activities of continuing operations primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory and decreases in accounts payable, partially offset by net earnings. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we provided $1.2 million through operating activities of discontinued operations consisting primarily of earnings prior to the Sale Transaction, partially offset by legal fees related to the Sale Transaction and the payment of $2.3 million to settle a legal matter related to our discontinued operations. During the year ended March 31, 2025, we provided $323.9 million through operating activities of continuing operations primarily due to net earnings and decreases in accounts receivable and inventory, partially offset by increases in deferred costs.
To manage our working capital, we monitor our cash conversion cycle for our business segments, which is defined as days sales outstanding (“DSO”) in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory (“DIO”) minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable (“DPO”).
The following table presents the components of the cash conversion cycle:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (DSO) Days sales outstanding (1) | 70 | 66 | ||
| (DIO) Days inventory outstanding (2) | 28 | 14 | ||
| (DPO) Days payable outstanding (3) | (47 | ) | (51 | ) |
| Cash conversion cycle | 51 | 29 |
(1)
Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of trade accounts receivable-trade, net at the end of the period divided by Gross billings for the same three-month period.
(2)
Represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of inventory, net at the end of the period divided by the direct cost of products billed to our customers for the same three-month period.
(3)
Represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of accounts payable-trade and accounts payable-floor plan at the end of the period divided by the direct cost of products and services billed to our customers for the same three-month period.
Our standard payment term for customers is between 30 to 60 days; however, certain customer orders may be approved for extended payment terms. Our DSOs for the quarters ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025 were greater than our standard payment terms primarily due to a significant proportion of sales in those quarters to customers with payment terms greater than or equal to net 60 days. Invoices processed through our credit facility, or the A/P-floor plan balance, are typically paid within 45-60 days from the invoice date, while A/P trade invoices are typically paid around 30 to 45 days from the invoice date.
Our cash conversion cycle increased to 51 days for March 31, 2026, compared to 29 days for March 31, 2025, as DSO increased by 4 days, DIO increased by 14 days, and DPO increased by 4 days from March 31, 2025, to March 31, 2026.

Cash flows related to investing activities
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we used $4.4 million through investing activities of continuing operations consisting primarily of purchases of property and equipment, offset by proceeds from sale of property and equipment. We also provided $164.2 million through investing activities of discontinued operations, consisting of initial net cash proceeds of $156.7 million received by us in connection with the closing of the Sale Transaction in June 2025 and $7.5 million that was received by us in March 2026 upon settlement of the final purchase price adjustment in the Sale Transaction. Our initial net cash proceeds of $156.7 million from the Sale Transaction consisted of cash proceeds of $180.1 million less cash transferred with HoldCo of $23.4 million.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, we used $130.2 million in investing activities of continuing operations, consisting of $124.9 million for the acquisition of Bailiwick and $5.3 million for purchases of property and equipment.
Cash flows from financing activities
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we used $16.5 million through financing activities of continuing operations. We had cash outflows of $30.6 million to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock and $19.7 million paid out in dividends. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows of $30.2 million in net borrowing on our floor plan facility and $3.6 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock to employees under our employee stock purchase plan. During the year ended March 31, 2026, we used $6.4 million from financing activities of discontinued operations for the repayment of notes payable related to our discontinued operations.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, we used $61.2 million in financing activities of continuing operations, consisting of $46.9 million to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock, $15.6 million repayments on the floor plan component of our WFCDF Credit Facility, and $2.3 million paid to the sellers of Peak Resources, Inc. (“Peak”) based on adjustments to a final determination of total net assets delivered in our January 2024 acquisition of Peak, partially offset by $3.6 million via the issuance of common stock to employees under an employee stock purchase plan.
Credit Facility
We finance the operations of our subsidiaries e Plus Technology, inc. and e Plus Technology Services, inc. (collectively, the “Borrowers”) through the WFCDF Credit Facility. The WFCDF Credit Facility has a floor plan facility and a revolving credit facility.
Please refer to Note 10 , “Credit Facility” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information concerning our WFCDF Credit Facility.
The loss of the WFCDF Credit Facility could have a material adverse effect on our future results as we currently rely on this facility and its components for daily working capital and liquidity and as an operational function of our accounts payable process.
Floor plan facility
We finance certain purchases of products for sale to our customers through the floor plan facility. Once our customer places a purchase order with us and we have approved their credit, we place an order for the desired products with one of our vendors. Our vendors are generally paid by the floor plan facility and our liability is reflected in “accounts payable—floor plan” in our consolidated balance sheets.
Most customer payments to us are remitted to our lockbox accounts. Once payments are cleared, the monies in the lockbox accounts are automatically and daily transferred to our operating account. We pay down the floor plan facility on three specified dates each month, generally 45 to 60 days from the invoice date. Our borrowings and repayments under the floor plan component are included in “net borrowings (repayments) on floor plan facility” within cash flows from the financing activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows.
As of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, we had a maximum credit limit, including the revolving credit facility, of $500.0 million, and an outstanding balance on the floor plan facility of $119.7 million and $89.5 million, respectively. On our balance sheet, our liability under the floor plan facility is presented as part of accounts payable – floor plan.

Table of Contents
Revolving credit facility
As of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, we did not have any outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility. The maximum credit limit under this facility was $200.0 million as of both March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025.
Dividends
A summary of dividend activity for our common stock for the year ended March 31, 2026 is as follows:
| Declaration date | Record date | Payment date | |
|---|---|---|---|
| $ 0.25 | August 7, 2025 | August 26, 2025 | September 17, 2025 |
| $ 0.25 | November 6, 2025 | November 25, 2025 | December 17, 2025 |
| $ 0.25 | February 4, 2026 | February 24, 2026 | March 18, 2026 |
On May 28, 2026, we announced that our Board declared a quarterly dividend. The quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per common share will be paid on June 30, 2026, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 17, 2026.
The payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, business prospects, capital requirements, contractual restrictions (including in current or future agreements governing our indebtedness), restrictions imposed by applicable law, tax considerations and other factors that our Board deems relevant.
Performance Guarantees
In the normal course of business, we may provide certain customers with performance guarantees, which are generally backed by surety bonds. In general, we would only be liable for these guarantees in the event of default in the performance of our obligations. We believe we currently comply with the performance obligations under our service contracts for which there is a performance guarantee, and we believe that any liability incurred in connection with these guarantees would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated statements of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As part of our ongoing business, we do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of March 31, 2026, and 2025, we were not involved in any such off-balance sheet arrangements.
Adequacy of Capital Resources
The continued implementation of our business strategy will require a significant investment in both resources and managerial focus. For example, we may selectively enter into merger and acquisition transactions with other companies that have attractive customer relationships, skilled sales and/or engineering forces, and/or other attributes that may be complementary to our business or are aligned with our long-term strategy. Specifically, we may acquire technology companies to expand and enhance our geographic footprint, or the platform of bundled solutions to provide additional functionality and value-added services. Further, we may also open facilities in new geographic areas, which may require a significant investment of cash. We may require additional capital due to increases in inventory to accommodate our customers’ IT installation schedules and delivery delays from product shortages to complete orders. These actions may result in increased working capital needs as the business expands. As a result, we may require additional financing to fund our strategy, implementation, potential future mergers and acquisitions, and working capital needs, which may include additional debt and equity financing. While the future is uncertain, we do not expect our WFCDF Credit Facility will be terminated by WFCDF or us.

Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results
Our future quarterly operating results and the market price of our common stock may fluctuate. In the event our revenues or earnings for any quarter are less than the level expected by securities analysts or the market in general, such shortfall could have an immediate and significant adverse impact on the market price of our common stock. Any such adverse impact could be greater if any such shortfall occurs near the time of any material decrease in any widely followed stock index or in the market price of the stock of one or more competitors, IT resellers, major customers, or vendors of ours.
Our quarterly results of operations are susceptible to fluctuations for several reasons, including, but not limited to currency fluctuations, reduction in IT spending by our customers and potential customers, shortages of products from our vendors, the timing and mix of specific transactions, the reduction of vendor incentive programs, and other factors.
We believe that comparisons of quarterly results of our operations are not necessarily meaningful and that results for one quarter should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
Contractual Obligations
Our material contractual obligations primarily consist of lease liabilities. Please refer to Note 6 , “Lessee Accounting” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the maturities of these obligations.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 , “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accounting policies described below are significantly affected by critical accounting estimates. Such accounting policies require significant judgments, assumptions, and estimates, and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported based on these policies.
REVENUE RECOGNITION — When we enter into contracts with customers, we are required to identify the performance obligations in the contract. We recognize most of our revenues from the sales of third-party products, third-party software, third-party maintenance, software support, and services, and e Plus professional and managed services. Our recognition of revenue differs for each of these distinct types of performance obligations and identifying each performance obligation appropriately may require judgment.
When a contract contains multiple distinct performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We determine standalone selling prices using expected cost-plus margin.
We recognize revenue from sales of third-party products and third-party software at the point in time that control passes to the customer, which is typically upon delivery of the product to the customer. We perform an analysis to estimate the amount of sales in-transit at the end of the period and adjust revenue and the related costs to reflect only what has been delivered to the customer. This analysis is based upon an analysis of current quarter and historical delivery dates.
We recognize revenue from sales of third-party maintenance, software support, and services when our customer and vendor accept the terms and conditions of the arrangement. On occasion, judgment is required to determine this point in time.
We provide e Plus professional services under both time and materials and fixed price contracts. When services are provided on a time and materials basis, we recognize sales at agreed-upon billing rates as services are performed. When services are provided on a fixed fee basis, we recognize sales over time in proportion to our progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. Using this method requires us to determine the appropriate input or output method to measure progress. We most often measure progress based on costs incurred in proportion to total estimated costs, commonly referred to as the “cost-to-cost” method. When using this method, significant judgment may be required to estimate the total costs to complete the performance obligation. We typically recognize sales of e Plus managed services on a straight-line basis over the period services are provided.

Table of Contents
GOODWILL — We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of October 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Goodwill is tested for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit.
In a qualitative assessment, we assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an event representing an indicator of impairment has occurred between annual test dates. Such indicators may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; unanticipated competition; the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and reductions in revenue or profitability growth rates.
In the quantitative impairment test, we compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. We estimate the fair value of each reporting unit using a combination of the income approach and market approaches.
The income approach incorporates the use of a discounted cash flow method in which the estimated future cash flows and terminal values for each reporting unit are discounted to a present value using a discount rate. Cash flow projections are based on management’s estimates of economic and market conditions which drive key assumptions of revenue growth rates, operating margins, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. The discount rate in turn is based on the specific risk characteristics of each reporting unit, the weighted average cost of capital and its underlying forecast.
The market approach estimates fair value by applying performance metric multiples to the reporting unit’s prior and expected operating performance. The multiples are derived from comparable publicly traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics as the reporting unit.
The fair values determined by the market approach and income approach, as described above, are weighted to determine the fair value for each reporting unit. Although we have consistently used the same methods in developing the assumptions and estimates underlying the fair value calculations, such estimates are uncertain and may vary from actual results.
VENDOR CONSIDERATION — We receive payments and credits from vendors, including consideration pursuant to volume incentive programs, and shared marketing expense programs. Many of these programs extend over one or more quarters’ sales activities. Different programs have different vendor/program specific goals to achieve. We recognize the rebates pursuant to volume incentive programs, when the rebate is probable and reasonably estimable, based on a systematic and rational allocation of the cash consideration offered to each of the underlying transactions that results in our progress towards earning the rebate. Should our actual performance be different from our estimates, we may be required to adjust our receivables.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES — We maintain an allowance for credit losses related to our accounts receivable and financing receivables. We record an expense in the amount necessary to adjust the allowance for credit losses to our current estimate of expected credit losses on financial assets. We estimate expected credit losses based on our internal rating of the customer’s credit quality, our historical credit losses, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Prior to providing credit, we assign an internal rating for each customer’s credit quality based on the customer’s financial status, rating agency reports and other financial information. We review our internal ratings for each customer at least annually or when there is an indicator of a change in credit quality, such as a delinquency or bankruptcy. We write off receivables when we deem them to be uncollectable. As of March 31, 2026, we estimated expected credit loss rates at rates comparable to March 31, 2025 across most asset pools.
INCOME TAXES — We make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement reporting purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which principally arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement reporting purposes. We also must analyze income tax reserves, as well as determine the likelihood of recoverability of deferred tax assets and adjust any valuation allowances accordingly.
41
Table of Contents
Considerations with respect to the recoverability of deferred tax assets include the period of expiration of the tax asset, planned use of the tax asset, and historical and projected taxable income as well as tax liabilities for the tax jurisdiction to which the tax asset relates. Valuation allowances are evaluated periodically and will be subject to change in each future reporting period as a result of changes in one or more of these factors. The calculation of our tax liabilities also involves considering uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for uncertain income tax positions based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be required.
Several foreign jurisdictions are implementing or considering a 15% minimum effective tax rate under the OECD's Global Anti-Base Erosion (“Pillar Two”) model rules. This applies to multinational companies with consolidated revenue above €750 million. Companies must calculate a combined effective tax rate for all entities in a jurisdiction, and if it is below 15%, a top-up tax is required. We qualified under the safe harbor provisions in jurisdictions that have implemented Pillar Two to date, therefore, no top-up tax applies.
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS — We account for business combinations using the acquisition method. For each acquisition, we recognize most assets acquired, and liabilities assumed at their fair values at the acquisition date. Our valuations of certain assets acquired, including customer relationships and trade names, and certain liabilities assumed, involve significant judgment and estimation. Additionally, our determination of the purchase price may include an estimate for the fair value of contingent consideration. We utilize independent valuation specialists to assist us in determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. Our valuations utilize significant estimates, such as forecasted revenues and profits. Changes in our estimates could significantly impact the value of certain assets and liabilities.

ITEM 7A.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our financial position is exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency risk. Additionally, we have seen an increase in these risks and related uncertainties with increased volatility in the financial markets and inflation.
Foreign Currency Risk
We have transactions in foreign currencies, primarily in British Pounds, Euros, and Indian Rupees. There is a potential for exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates resulting primarily from the translation exposure associated with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. In addition, we have foreign currency exposure when transactions are not denominated in our subsidiary’s functional currency. To date, our foreign operations are insignificant in relation to total consolidated operations, and we believe that potential fluctuations in currency exchange rates will not have a material effect on our financial position.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, or “disclosure controls”, as of the end of the period covered by this report as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Disclosure controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls include some, but not all, components of our internal control over financial reporting.
Based on the evaluation described above, our CEO and CFO concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026, were effective in ensuring information required to be disclosed in our SEC reports was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2026, utilizing the criteria described in the “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The objective of this assessment was to determine whether our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2026.
Management’s assessment included evaluation of such elements as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment. Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of March 31, 2026, we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, who audited the consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has also audited the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as stated in its report included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance due to its inherent limitations; it is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. A control system also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of such limitations, disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all misstatements, whether unintentional errors or fraud. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process; therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of e Plus inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of e Plus inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2026, and 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2026, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026, and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated May 28, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Revenue Recognition – Gross Versus Net Recognition of Sales of Third-Party Software – Refer to Note 1 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company is typically the principal in sales of third-party software. Sales are recognized on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as sales and the acquisition cost of the product recognized as cost of sales. The Company recognizes revenue from these sales at the point in time that control passes to the customer, which is typically upon delivery of the software to the customer. The Company acts as the agent in sales of third-party maintenance, software support, and services as the third-party controls the service until it is transferred to the customer. Similarly, the Company is the agent in sales of third-party software and accompanying third-party support when the third-party software benefits the customer only in conjunction with the accompanying support. In these sales, the Company considers the third-party software and support as inputs to a single performance obligation. In all these sales where the Company is the agent, the Company recognizes sales on a net basis at the point that its customer and vendor accept the terms and conditions of the arrangement.
F-2
Table of Contents
Auditing the Company’s determination of gross or net recognition of third-party software and support sales involved a high degree of subjectivity as it required the evaluation of whether the third-party software benefits the customer only in conjunction with the accompanying support. When the support is determined to be critical or essential to the software, the transaction is viewed as one combined performance obligation, and revenue is recognized net of related costs.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to management’s conclusion related to the recognition of sales of third-party software included the following, among others:
●
We tested the design and operating effectiveness of management’s controls over the determination of gross or net recognition of third-party software and support sales.
●
For a selection of contracts, we performed the following procedures:
–
Inspected the customer invoice and purchase order to determine whether the sale represented a valid transaction with a customer.
–
Compared the cost per the Company’s records to the cost per the vendor invoice.
–
Evaluated the sale to determine whether it constituted a single or multiple performance obligation(s) through inspection of the customer invoice, purchase order, and information on vendor websites accessed through third-party search engines.
–
Evaluated the sale to determine whether there was accompanying third-party support related to the software, and whether the support was separately identifiable or essential to the functionality of the software through inspection of customer invoices, purchase orders, information on vendor websites accessed through third-party search engines and inquiries with management, as necessary.
–
Determined whether the sale treatment as principal or agent is appropriate and consistent with the Company’s conclusion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of e Plus inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of ePlus inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2026, of the Company and our report dated May 28, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the Years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024
- ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business — ePlus inc. (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “ePlus”) was founded in 1990 and is a Delaware corporation. We are a holding company that through our subsidiaries provides information technology (“IT”) solutions which enable organizations to optimize their IT environment and supply chain processes. We also provide consulting, professional services, managed services, and complete lifecycle management services. We focus on selling to medium and large enterprises and state and local government and educational (“SLED”) institutions in the United States (“US”) and select international markets including the United Kingdom (“UK”), the European Union (“EU”), India, and Singapore.
Basis of Presentation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of e Plus inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounts of acquired businesses are included in the consolidated financial statements from the dates of acquisition.
Sale of Our Financing Business — On June 30, 2025, we completed the sale of 100 % of the membership interests of Expo Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“HoldCo”), to Marlin Leasing Corporation, a Delaware corporation (d/b/a PEAC Solutions) pursuant to the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated June 20, 2025 (the “Sale Transaction”). By selling HoldCo, together with its U.S. subsidiaries, we sold our domestic financing business that comprised most of our financing business segment, which is a business that finances information technology equipment, software and related services for customers. We continue to own the international entities in the financing business. This divestiture positions us to focus on being a technology solutions provider and represents a strategic shift in our operations. As a result of the Sale Transaction, we determined that the domestic financing business that was sold met the definition of discontinued operations. Consequently, for all periods presented in these financial statements, we are retrospectively presenting the results of our domestic financing business as discontinued operations. In our audited consolidated balance sheets for all periods, we present the assets and liabilities of our domestic financing business as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations. In our audited consolidated statements of operations for all periods, we present the operating results of our domestic financing business in earnings from discontinued operations. After the sale, our remaining three reportable segments are product, professional services, and managed services, which we formerly referred to collectively as our technology business. Please refer to Note 5, “Discontinued Operations” for additional information on the transaction and its effect on our financial statements.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters including, but not limited to, revenue recognition, vendor consideration, goodwill and intangible assets, allowance for credit losses, inventory obsolescence, and the recognition and measurement of income tax assets and other provisions and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Allowance for Credit Losses — We maintain an allowance for credit losses related to our accounts receivable. We record an expense in the amount necessary to adjust the allowance for credit losses to our current estimate of expected credit losses on financial assets. We estimate expected credit losses based on our internal rating of the customer’s credit quality, our historical credit losses, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Prior to providing credit, we assign an internal rating for each customer’s credit quality based on the customer’s financial status, rating agency reports and other financial information. We review our internal ratings for each customer at least annually or when there is an indicator of a change in credit quality, such as a delinquency or bankruptcy. We write off receivables when we deem them to be uncollectable.
F-13
Table of Contents
Business Combinations — We account for business combinations using the acquisition method, which requires that the total purchase price for the acquired entity be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. With limited exceptions, we measure most assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. We apply Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) Topic 606, Contracts with customers (“Codification Topic 606”), to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers. Our allocation process requires an analysis of intangible assets, such as customer relationships, trade names, acquired contractual rights and legal contingencies to identify and record all assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
We record any premium paid over the fair value of the acquired net assets as goodwill. Our initial purchase price allocations are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. We include the results of operations for the acquired company in our financial statements from the acquisition date.
Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of interest-bearing accounts and money market funds that consist of short-term US treasury securities. We consider all highly liquid investments, including those with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition, to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, there were no restrictions on the withdrawal of funds from our money market funds.
Concentrations of Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents may include short-term investments that are maintained principally with financial institutions in the US. Our accounts receivable-trade balance on March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025 included approximately 36 % and 17 % concentration of invoices due from Verizon Communications Inc., respectively. Our risk on our accounts receivable is reduced by having a broad customer base in a diverse range of industries and through the ongoing evaluation of collectability of our portfolio. A substantial portion of our sales are products from Cisco Systems, which represented approximately 29 %, 32 %, and 44 %, of our net sales for the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
Contract Assets — We recognize contract assets when we recognize revenue and our right to consideration is conditioned on our future performance.
Contract Liabilities — We recognize contract liabilities when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance.
Deferred Costs — When a contract is within the scope of Codification Topic 606, we defer costs of fulfilling the contract when they generate or enhance resources that will be used by us in satisfying performance obligations in the future. Additionally, we capitalize costs that are incremental to obtaining the contracts, predominately sales commissions, and expense them in proportion to each completed contract performance obligation. Our long-term deferred costs are included in our consolidated balance sheets as part of property, equipment, and other assets—net.
Earnings Per Share — Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to common stockholders by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could participate in our earnings, including restricted stock awards during each period.
Fair Value Measurement — We follow the guidance in Codification Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements (“Codification Topic 820”) which governs how to measure fair value for financial reporting. This topic defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:
•
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.
•
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
•
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair values are determined based on model-based techniques such as discounted cash flow models using inputs that we could not corroborate with market data.
Financial Instruments — For financial instruments such as cash, short-term investments, accounts receivables, accounts payable and other current liabilities, we consider the recorded value of the financial instruments to approximate the fair value due to their short maturities.

Table of Contents
Foreign Currency Matters — Our functional currency is the US dollar. Our international subsidiaries typically use their local currency as their functional currency. We translate the assets and liabilities of our international subsidiaries into US dollars at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date. We translate the revenues and expenses of our international subsidiaries into US dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the applicable period. We report the resulting foreign currency translation adjustment as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. We report all foreign currency transaction gains or losses in other income, net on our consolidated statement of operations. For the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recognized losses of $ 0.6 million, $ 1.2 million, and $ 0.1 million, respectively, due to foreign currency transactions.
Goodwill — We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of October 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
In a qualitative assessment, we assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, we determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative goodwill impairment test is unnecessary.
If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then we perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. We may also elect the unconditional option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test.
In the quantitative impairment test, we compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired. Conversely, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
Implementation Costs of a Hosting Arrangement — We capitalize implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. We classify these capitalized costs in the same balance sheet line item as the amounts prepaid for the related hosting arrangement and we present the amortization of these capitalized costs in the same income statement line item as the service fees for the related hosting arrangement. Our long-term prepaids are included in our consolidated balance sheets as part of property, equipment, and other assets—net. We amortize the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement.
Income Taxes — Deferred income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Codification Topic 740 Income Taxes (“Codification Topic 740”). Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using tax rates currently in effect. Future tax benefits, such as net operating loss carry-forwards, are recognized to the extent that realization of these benefits is considered to be more likely than not. We review our deferred tax assets at least annually and make necessary valuation adjustments.
In addition, we account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with Codification Topic 740. Specifically, the Topic prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on the related de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure, and transition of uncertain tax positions. In accordance with our accounting policy, we recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of tax expense.
Inventories — We recognize inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value. We determine cost using a weighted average cost method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Our determination of the net realizable value for inventories is based on the terms of underlying purchase commitments from our customers, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors.

Lessee Accounting — We lease office space for periods up to six years and lease warehouse space for periods of up to 10 years, and we have some lease options that can be exercised to extend beyond those lease term limits. At the lease commencement date, we recognize operating lease liabilities based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments. In determining the present value of future minimum lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date. When the future minimum payments encompass non-lease components, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. We elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. We recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term beginning on the commencement date.
Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. We recognize property and equipment obtained through a business combination at its fair market value as of the acquisition date. We compute depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to seven years . We typically depreciate IT equipment over three years , perpetual software licenses over five years , and furniture and fixtures over five years .
Revenue Recognition — We recognize most of our revenues from the sales of third-party products, third-party software, third-party maintenance, software support, and services, e Plus professional and managed services, and hosting e Plus proprietary software. We recognize revenue from these sales under the guidance in Codification Topic 606.
The core principle of Codification Topic 606 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. We account for a contract under Codification Topic 606 when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are established, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of consideration is probable.
Revenues are reported net of sales refunds, including an estimate of future returns based on an evaluation of historical sales returns, current economic conditions, volume, and other relevant factors.
Our contracts with customers may include multiple promises that are distinct performance obligations. For such arrangements, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We determine standalone selling prices using expected cost-plus margin.
We recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. A good or service is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of that good or service. Depending on the nature of each performance obligation, this may be at a point in time or over time, as further described below.
We typically invoice our customers for third-party products upon shipment, for third-party software upon delivery, and for third-party services at the point of sale.
Product revenue
Sales of third-party products
We are the principal in sales of third-party products. As such, we recognize sales on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as sales and the acquisition cost of the product recognized as cost of sales. We recognize revenue from these sales at the point in time that control passes to the customer, which is typically upon delivery of the product to the customer.
In some instances, our customers may request that we bill them for a product but retain physical possession of the product until later delivery, commonly known as “bill-and-hold” arrangements. We have warehousing agreements with select customers wherein title to products ordered through the agreements transfers to our customer at the point the product has arrived at our warehouse and we invoice the customer. In these “bill-and-hold” arrangements, we recognize revenue when the customer has ordered the product through their warehousing agreement with us or signed a bill-and-hold agreement with us, the customer has legal title, the product is identified separately as belonging to the customer, and the product is ready for delivery to the customer.

Sales of third-party maintenance, software support, software subscriptions when control is kept by the vendor, software that the customer accesses through the cloud, services, and software that benefits the customer only in conjunction with accompanying support
We are the agent in sales of third-party maintenance, software support, software subscriptions when control is kept by the vendor, software that the customer accesses through the cloud, and services as the third-party controls the service until it is transferred to the customer. Similarly, we are the agent in sales of third-party software and accompanying third-party support when the third-party software benefits the customer only in conjunction with the accompanying support. In these sales, we consider the third-party software and support as inputs to a single performance obligation. In all these sales where we are the agent, we recognize sales on a net basis at the point that our agency performance obligation is complete.
Freight and sales tax
We present freight billed to our customers within sales and the related freight charged to us within cost of sales. We present sales tax collected from customers and remittances to governmental authorities on a net basis.
Financing revenue and other
We continue to collect the remaining outstanding receivables due from leases and notes receivable held by the international entities of our financing business that we retained after the Sale Transaction.
We account for leases to customers in accordance with Codification Topic 842. We utilize a portfolio approach by grouping together many similar assets being leased to a single customer.
We classify our leases as either sales-type leases or operating leases. We classify leases as sales-type leases if any one of five criteria are met, each of which indicate that the lease transfers control of the underlying asset to the lessee. We classify our other leases as operating leases.
For sales-type leases, upon lease commencement, we recognize the present value of the lease payments, and the residual asset discounted using the rate implicit in the lease. After the commencement date, we recognize interest income as part of net sales using the effective interest method.
For operating leases, we recognize the underlying asset as an operating lease asset. We depreciate the asset on a straight-line basis to its estimated residual value over its estimated useful life. We recognize the lease payments over the lease term on a straight-line basis as part of net sales.
We classify the financing of third-party software and third-party services for our customers as notes-receivable. We recognize interest income on our notes-receivable using the effective interest method.
We classify the current receivables from sales-type leases and notes receivable in other current assets on our balance sheet. We classify the long-term receivables from sales-type leases and notes receivable and the carrying value of assets that we are leasing to our customers on leases that are classified as operating leases in property, equipment, and other assets-net on our balance sheet.
Service revenue
Sales of ePlus professional services and managed services
Our professional services offerings include consulting, architecture, deployment, and configuration services, software adoption services, training services, assessments, logistics, and staffing. Our managed service offerings range from monitoring and notification to fully outsourced network management and service desk solutions. In all these arrangements, we satisfy our performance obligation and recognize revenue over time.
F-17
Table of Contents
In arrangements for e Plus professional services, we provide services under both time and materials and fixed price contracts. When services are provided on a time and materials basis, we recognize sales at agreed-upon billing rates as services are performed. When services are provided on a fixed fee basis, we recognize sales over time in proportion to our progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. We utilize output and input methods to measure progress. Our input methods that we utilize include measuring costs incurred in proportion to total estimated costs, commonly referred to as the “cost-to-cost” method, and measuring service hours in proportion to total estimated service hours.
Our professional services offerings include projects where products and services are delivered together to satisfy one performance obligation. In these arrangements, we recognize the entire arrangement in professional services and include the cost of the products as part of cost of sales for professional services.
In arrangements for e Plus managed services, our arrangement is typically a single performance obligation comprised of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer (i.e., distinct days of service). We typically recognize sales from these services on a straight-line basis over the period services are provided.
Share-Based Compensation — We account for share-based compensation in accordance with Codification Topic 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation . We account for forfeitures when they occur. We recognize compensation cost for awards of restricted stock with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We recognize compensation cost for our employee stock purchase plan on a straight-line basis over the offering period, which is six months . We measure the award on the grant date at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We recognize compensation cost for our performance stock units based on the grant-date fair value over the requisite service period, which is three years, and is adjusted for the probability of achieving certain performance conditions.
Software Development Costs — We capitalize costs for the development of internal use software under the Codification Topic 350-40 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other Intangibles, Subtopic Internal-Use Software . We did no t have significant capitalized development costs for internal use software for either of the years ended March 31, 2026, or March 31, 2025.
Transfers of financial assets — We partner with third-party financing companies to provide financing solutions for our customers. On certain sales, we enter a financing arrangement with our customer, and then subsequently transfer the contractual payments, without recourse, to a third-party financing company. We account for the transfer of these financial assets under Codification Topic 860 Transfers and Servicing (“Codification Topic 860”). After the sale to the customer, but prior to the transfer, we recognize these financial assets as receivables held for sale within other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet. We value the receivables based on the funding proceeds offered by the financing company. Once the transfer is complete, and it meets all the requirements for sale accounting, we derecognize the financial asset and recognize a receivable from the financing company within accounts receivable —trade, net. We derecognize the receivable upon receipt of payment from the financing company.
Treasury Stock — We account for treasury stock under the cost method and include treasury stock as a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
F-18
Vendor Consideration — We receive payments and credits from vendors pursuant to volume incentive programs and shared marketing expense programs. Many of these programs extend over one or more quarters’ sales activities. Different programs have different vendor/program specific milestones to achieve. Amounts due from vendors as of March 31, 2026, and 2025 were $ 30.1 million and $ 15.5 million, respectively, which were included within accounts receivable-other, net in the accompanying balance sheets.
We recognize rebates pursuant to volume incentive programs as a reduction of costs to purchase the vendor’s products based on a systematic and rational allocation of the cash consideration offered to the underlying transactions that result in our progress toward earning the rebate provided the amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated. When a rebate is not probable or not reasonably estimable, we recognized the rebate as the milestones are achieved or as cash is received.
We recognize rebates pursuant to shared marketing expense programs as a reduction of the related selling and administrative expenses in the period the program occurs when the consideration represents a reimbursement of specific, incremental, identifiable costs. We recognize consideration that exceeds the specific, incremental, identifiable costs as a reduction of costs to purchase the vendor’s products.
- REVISION OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We identified misstatements in our previously issued consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years 2025 and 2024 that related to an overstatement of revenue from our Product segment that resulted from a miscalculation of accrued revenue. We also identified misstatements related to inventory cost and other expenses in prior periods. We assessed the impacts of the misstatements from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives and determined that the related impacts were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to our previously issued consolidated financial statements. Notwithstanding the results of the assessment, we are revising our previously issued consolidated financial statements to correct these misstatements. Accordingly, all consolidated financial information contained in these consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes has been revised to reflect the corrections. Previously reported financial information will be corrected in future filings, as applicable.

- REVENUES
Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets
Our balance in accounts receivable—trade, net includes our accounts receivable recognized from contracts with customers and contract assets. Contract assets represent our right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that we transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time.
The following table provides a disaggregation of our balance in accounts receivable—trade, net (in thousands):
| Accounts receivable | $ 653,045 | $ | March 31, 2025 — 498,399 | |

| Allowance for credit losses | ( 3,024 | ) | ( 3,902 | ) |
| Total accounts receivable—trade, net | $ 667,831 | $ | 508,272 |
As of March 31, 2026, our accounts receivable includes $ 8.6 million that is due from a financing partner in payment for our sale of customer receivables to them. Additionally, within other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet, we have $ 6.3 million in receivables recognized from contracts with customers that we intend to sell to this financing partner.
Contract Liabilities
Contract liabilities represent our obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which we have received consideration, or the amount is due from the customer. Our contract liabilities consist of our deferred revenue and deferred revenue—long-term in our consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized from the beginning contract liability balance was $ 126.4 million and $ 112.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively.

- DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On June 30, 2025, we completed the sale of HoldCo, thereby selling our domestic financing business.
In the Sale Transaction, we received net cash proceeds of $ 164.2 million, consisting of initial net cash proceeds of $ 156.7 million delivered in June 2025 and $ 7.5 million delivered in March 2026 upon settlement of the final purchase price adjustment. Our initial net cash proceeds of $ 156.7 million consisted of cash proceeds of $ 180.1 million less cash transferred with HoldCo of $ 23.4 million.
Additionally, we also recognized a receivable for contingent consideration that had an initial fair value of $ 13.5 million. See Note 16 , “Fair Value Measurements” for a discussion of our contingent consideration asset. After settling the final purchase price adjustment, we have a $ 0.2 million payable related to the Sale Transaction.
We incurred approximately $ 4.0 million in transaction costs during our quarter ended June 30, 2025, which is netted against the gain on sale of HoldCo before income taxes.
We recognized a gain on sale before taxes of $ 3.8 million consisting of an initial gain on sale of $ 4.4 million that was recognized in our quarter ended June 30, 2026 less an adjustment of $ 0.6 million that was recognized in our quarter ended March 31, 2026, due to concessions offered to the buyer related to settling the final purchase price adjustment.
Our earnings before gain from sale and income taxes for the year ended March 31, 2026, include a loss of $ 2.3 million to settle a legal matter related to our discontinued operations. We paid this $ 2.3 million settlement in December 2025.

(1)
Balance is net of $ 4,644 thousand in accumulated impairments that were recorded in a segment that preceded our current segment organization.
Goodwill represents the premium paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets that are individually identified and separately recognized in business combinations.
We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of our third fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.
In our annual test as of October 1, 2025, we performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill and concluded that, more likely than not, the fair value of our product, professional services, and managed services reporting units continued to exceed their carrying value.

- CREDIT FACILITY
We finance the operations of our subsidiaries e Plus Technology, inc. and e Plus Technology Services, inc. (collectively, the “Borrowers”) through a credit facility with Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC (“WFCDF”). The WFCDF credit facility (the “WFCDF Credit Facility”) has a floor plan facility and a revolving credit facility.
Our credit facility is provided by a syndicate of banks for which WFCDF acts as administrative agent and consists of a discretionary senior secured floor plan facility in favor of the Borrowers in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 500.0 million, together with a sublimit for a revolving credit facility for up to $ 200.0 million.
We use the floor plan facility to facilitate the purchase of inventory from designated vendors. WFCDF pays our vendors and provides us with extended payment terms. We pay down the floor plan facility on three specified dates each month, generally 45 - 60 days from the invoice date. We normally do not incur any interest for balances under the floor plan facility. We pay an unused commitment fee in months that our floor plan utilization is below certain thresholds. We are not involved in establishing the terms or conditions of the arrangements between our vendors and WFCDF.
The following table provides roll forwards of our outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under the floor plan facility for the years ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 (in thousands):
| 2026 | 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Confirmed obligations at the beginning of the year | $ 89,527 | $ | 105,104 | |
| Invoices confirmed during the year | 845,168 | 692,349 | ||
| Confirmed invoices paid during the year | ( 815,002 | ) | ( 707,926 | ) |
| Confirmed obligations at the end of the year | $ 119,693 | $ | 89,527 |
Our liability under the accounts payable floor plan facility is presented as accounts payable – floor plan on our balance sheet.
We may use the revolving credit facility for our borrowing needs. We did no t have any outstanding balances under the revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025.
The amount of principal available is subject to a borrowing base determined by, among other things, the Borrowers’ accounts receivable and inventory, each pursuant to a formula and subject to certain reserves. Loans accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR Rate plus a Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10 % plus an Applicable Margin of 1.75 %.
Our borrowings under the WFCDF Credit Facility are secured by the assets of the Borrowers. Additionally, the WFCDF Credit Facility requires a guaranty of $ 10.5 million by e Plus inc.
F-25
Table of Contents
Under the WFCDF Credit Facility, the Borrowers are restricted in their ability to pay dividends to e Plus inc. unless their available borrowing meets or met certain thresholds. As of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, their available borrowing met the thresholds such that there were no restrictions on their ability to pay dividends.
The WFCDF Credit Facility has an initial one-year term, which automatically renews for successive one-year terms thereafter. However, either the Borrowers or WFCDF may terminate the WFCDF Credit Facility at any time by providing a written termination notice to the other party no less than 90 days prior to such termination.
The loss of the WFCDF Credit Facility could have a material adverse effect on our future results as we currently rely on this facility and its components for daily working capital and liquidity for our business and as an operational function of our accounts payable process.
- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and threatened litigation, that arise in the normal course of our business and have not been fully resolved. The ultimate outcome of any litigation or other legal dispute is uncertain. When a loss related to a legal proceeding or claim is probable and reasonably estimable, we accrue our best estimate for the ultimate resolution of the matter. If one or more legal matters are resolved against us in a reporting period for amounts above our expectations, our financial condition and operating results for that period may be adversely affected. As of March 31, 2026, we do 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. Any outcome, whether favorable or unfavorable, may materially and adversely affect us due to legal costs and expenses, diversion of management attention and other factors. We expense legal costs in the period incurred. We cannot assure that additional contingencies of a legal nature or contingencies having legal aspects will not be asserted against us in the future, and these matters could relate to prior, current, or future transactions or events.
- EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus common stock equivalents during each period.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted net earnings per common share as disclosed in our consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands, except per share data):

- STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Share Repurchase Plan
On August 7, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,500,000 shares of our outstanding common stock, over a 12-month period beginning August 11, 2025. Previously, on May 18, 2024, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,250,000 shares of our outstanding common stock over a 12-month period that began on May 28, 2024 and terminated on May 27, 2025. Under each authorized share repurchase program, when such program is in place, we may make purchases from time to time in the open market, or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to availability and the plan terms. Any repurchased shares have the status of treasury shares and may be used, when needed, for general corporate purposes.
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we purchased 362,900 shares of our outstanding common stock at a value of $ 27.9 million under the share repurchase plan; we also purchased 47,488 shares of common stock at a value of $ 3.3 million to satisfy tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of employees’ restricted stock.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, we purchased 557,009 shares of our outstanding common stock at a value of $ 43.1 million under the share repurchase plan; we also purchased 52,450 shares of common stock at a value of $ 3.8 million to satisfy tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of employees’ restricted stock.
- SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Share-Based Plans
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we had share-based awards outstanding under the following plans: (1) the 2017 Non-Employee Director Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2017 Director LTIP”), (2) the 2024 Non-Employee Director Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2024 Director LTIP”) and (3) the 2021 Employee Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2021 Employee LTIP”).
These share-based plans define fair market value as the closing sales price of a share of common stock as quoted on any established stock exchange for such date or the most recent trading day preceding such date if there were no trades on such date.
2021 Employee LTIP
The 2021 Employee LTIP was approved by our stockholders on September 16, 2021, and became effective October 1, 2021. Under the 2021 Employee LTIP, 3,000,000 shares were authorized for grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, or other share-based awards to e Plus employees.
The purpose of the 2021 Employee LTIP is to encourage our employees to acquire a proprietary interest in the growth and performance of e Plus, thus enhancing the value of e Plus for the benefit of its stockholders, and to enhance our ability to attract and retain exceptionally qualified individuals. These plans are administered by the Compensation Committee.
Shares issuable under these plans may consist of authorized but unissued shares or shares held in our treasury. Under these plans, the Compensation Committee will determine the time and method of exercise or vesting of the awards. Shares under these plans will not be used to compensate our outside directors, who may be compensated under the separate 2024 Director LTIP, as discussed below.
F-27
Table of Contents
2017 Director LTIP and 2024 Director LTIP
On September 12, 2024, our stockholders approved the 2024 Director LTIP. The 2024 Director LTIP replaces the 2017 Director LTIP. Beginning September 12, 2024, we permanently ceased issuing any additional shares under the 2017 Director LTIP. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued as restricted shares under the 2024 Director LTIP is 300,000 shares.
The purpose of the 2024 Director LTIP is to align the economic interests of the directors with the interests of stockholders by including equity as a component of pay and to attract, motivate and retain experienced and knowledgeable directors.
Under the 2024 Director LTIP, directors may be granted restricted shares, subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement and the 2024 Director LTIP. In addition, each director may also elect to receive stock in lieu of their cash compensation. Stock received in lieu of cash is issued under the 2024 Director LTIP and vests immediately.
Restricted Stock Activity
During the year ended March 31, 2026, we granted 10,962 restricted shares under the 2024 LTIP, and 121,844 restricted shares under the 2021 Employee LTIP.
Cumulatively, as of March 31, 2026, we have granted a total of 115,665 restricted shares under the 2017 Director LTIP, 18,928 shares under the 2024 Director LTIP, and 534,449 restricted shares under the 2021 Employee LTIP.
The following table provides a summary of the unvested restricted shares for the year ended March 31, 2026:
| Unvested April 1, 2025 | Number of shares — 275,773 | $ 64.80 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Granted | 132,806 | $ 72.76 | |
| Vested | ( 146,908 | ) | $ 63.59 |
| Forfeited | ( 9,445 | ) | $ 68.01 |
| Unvested March 31, 2026 | 252,226 | $ 69.58 |
In each of the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we used the closing stock price on the grant date or, if the grant date fell on a date the stock was not traded, the previous day’s closing stock price for the fair value of the award.
The weighted-average grant date fair value of restricted shares granted during the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $ 72.76 , $ 74.02 , and $ 56.50 , respectively.
The aggregated fair value of restricted shares that vested during the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $ 9.3 million, $ 8.5 million, and $ 7.8 million, respectively.
Upon each vesting period of the restricted stock awards to employees, participants are subject to minimum tax withholding obligations. Each of the 2021 Employee LTIP and the 2024 Director LTIP allow us to withhold enough shares due to the participant to satisfy their minimum tax withholding obligations. For the year ended March 31, 2026, we withheld 47,488 shares of common stock at a value of $ 3.3 million, which was included in treasury stock. For the year ended March 31, 2025, we withheld 52,450 shares of common stock at a value of $ 3.8 million, which was included in treasury stock.
Performance Stock Units
Beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, we granted Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) to certain executive officers under our 2021 Employee LTIP. The PSUs will vest based on the achievement of certain performance goals at the end of a three-year performance period. The PSUs represent the right to receive shares of our common stock at the time of vesting. The total number of PSUs that vest range from 0 % to 200 % of the target number of PSUs based on our achievement of certain performance targets.

| Granted | 38,094 | $ 76.08 |
| Unvested March 31, 2026 | 72,629 | $ 73.63 |
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We provide eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of our stock through the 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). Under the ESPP, eligible employees may collectively purchase up to an aggregate of 2.50 million shares of our stock. Employees in the ESPP contribute part of their earnings over a six-month offering period. At the end of each offering period, employees purchase our shares using their contributions at a discount off the lesser of the closing market price on the first or the last trading day of each offering period. During the year ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, we issued 59,108 shares at a weighted average price of $ 61.00 per share and 58,064 shares at a weighted average price of $ 62.61 per share, respectively, under the ESPP. As of March 31, 2026, there were 2.31 million shares remaining under the ESPP.
Compensation Expense
The following table provides a summary of our total share-based compensation expense for continuing operations, including for restricted stock awards, PSUs, our ESPP, and the related income tax benefit for the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively (in thousands):
| 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Equity-based compensation expense | $ 12,134 | $ 10,502 | $ 9,471 | |||
| Income tax benefit | $ ( 3,446 | ) | $ ( 2,941 | ) | $ ( 2,652 | ) |
We recognized the income tax benefit as a reduction to our provision for income taxes. As of March 31, 2026, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock was $ 10.6 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 27 months.
We also provide our employees with a contributory 401(k) profit sharing plan. We may make contributions, which are fully vested when they are made, to the plan. These contributions are not required, and the amount of our contributions are entirely within our discretion. For the years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recognized expense for employer contributions to the plan of $ 5.9 million, $ 5.6 million, and $ 4.6 million, respectively.
- INCOME TAXES
We account for our tax positions in accordance with Codification Topic 740. Under the guidance, we evaluate uncertain tax positions based on the two-step approach. The first step is to evaluate each uncertain tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained in an audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. For tax positions that are not likely of being sustained upon audit, the second step requires us to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
As of March 31, 2026, and 2025, we do not have any unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense.
We file income tax returns, including returns for our subsidiaries, with federal, state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. The tax years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows (in thousands):

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. Based on this evaluation as of March 31, 2026, we are recognizing a valuation allowance to offset gross deferred tax assets primarily attributable to net operating losses at certain of the foreign subsidiaries and foreign tax credit carry forwards. We believe that it is more likely than not that we will realize the remaining gross deferred tax assets through generating taxable income or the reversal of existing temporary differences attributable to the gross deferred tax liabilities.

- FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We account for the fair values of our assets and liabilities utilizing a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The following table provides the fair value of our assets and liabilities measured at fair value as categorized within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025 (in thousands):
| Fair value measurement using — Recorded amount | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) | Significant other observable inputs (Level 2) | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Through the agreement for the sale of HoldCo, we may earn and receive Holdback Premium (as defined below) payments and two different types of Earn-Outs (as defined below, and together with the Holdback Premium the “Contingent Consideration”) based on the post-Closing performance of the HoldCo Group (as defined below), as operated by PEAC Solutions. We estimated the fair value of each element of the Contingent Consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. We recognize the short-term and long-term portions of the receivable for the Contingent Consideration as part of other current assets and property, equipment, and other assets—net, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheet.
We may receive aggregate post-Closing cash payments of up to $ 3.0 million (the “Holdback Premium”) based on the achievement of customer lease receivable originations targets by HoldCo (i) from the Closing Date to the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) from the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date to the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date.
The two types of earn-out payments that are potentially payable to us are based on (i) the volume of originations of certain types of lease receivables (the “Lease Originations Earn-Out”) and (ii) the profitability of certain lease receivables originated either to US federal governmental entities or for which a prime contractor acting on behalf of a government entity is the obligor (the “Transaction Gains Earn-Out,” and together with the Lease Originations Earn-Out, the “Earn-Outs”). Each of the Earn-Outs will be measured for each of the first three consecutive twelve-month periods following the Closing. The Lease Originations Earn-Out is capped at $ 10.0 million in aggregate for all three post-Closing years . The Transaction Gains Earn-Out does not have a maximum cap.
In our initial accounting for the sale of HoldCo as of June 30, 2025, we recognized a receivable for the Contingent Consideration of $ 13.5 million. We subsequently adjusted our estimate of the fair value of the contingent receivable to $ 9.3 million as of March 31, 2026, based on progress towards achieving the Contingent Consideration targets. We recognized this adjustment of $ 4.2 million as a loss in other income, net in our statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.

The goodwill recognized in the Bailiwick acquisition is attributable to the acquired assembled workforce and expected synergies, none of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. The total amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $ 44.4 million.
The amount of revenues and earnings of the acquiree since the acquisition date are not material. Likewise, the impact to the revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date had been April 1, 2024, is not material.
- SEGMENT REPORTING
We manage and report our operating results through three operating segments: product, professional services, and managed services. Our organizational structure is based on how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) allocates resources, manages operations, and evaluates performance. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.
Our product segment includes sales of IT products, third-party software, and third-party maintenance, software assurance, and other third-party services. Our professional services segment includes our advanced professional services, staff augmentation, project management services, cloud consulting services and security services. Our managed services segment includes our advanced managed services, service desk, storage-as-a-service, cloud hosted services, cloud managed services and managed security services. Our other category consists of the international entities of our financing business that we retained after selling our domestic financing business.
Our CODM measures the performance of the segments based on gross profit. We do not present asset information for our reportable segments as we do not provide asset information to our CODM. Our CODM reviews financial results and forecasts quarterly to manage operations and evaluate performance. Our CODM also uses our financial results and forecasts to make investment decisions as part of our annual budgeting process.
