This transaction is also in line with our stated goals of margin expansion and diversification of our revenue."

"Minacs has been able to establish itself as a high value unique player in Business Services. Their investments in IoT and Marketing Optimization stand out as solutions with growing market demand, which we believe we will be able to leverage across our combined client base," said Chris Caldwell, President of Concentrix. "This acquisition is intended to increase our speed to market of these solutions and provide us new opportunities for expansion."

Anil Bhalla, CEO of Minacs, will stay with the combined company and join Concentrix' senior executive staff.  "I am confident that the combination of our capabilities will present an even more compelling value proposition to the marketplace," Bhalla said.  "Across industries, clients can expect our shared vision and strategic scale to help them solve bigger, more complex business challenges."

Non-GAAP Financial Information
SYNNEX has provided in this press release, information related to the projected impact of the acquisition on the company's earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis, as it excludes one-time acquisition related expenses, intangible amortization and restructuring charges. This non-GAAP information provides investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company's operations. Because this non-GAAP information is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures.
