“You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take, and if you think it’s expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur “  

 

Phoenix-based Avnet (NYSE: AVT) is now solely focused on electronic components and integrated and embedded solutions, supporting its startup to large technology manufacturer customers at every stage of the product life cycle.

“Today marks a critical stage in the transformation of Avnet. We have doubled down on our electronic components and integrated and embedded solutions business, which is complemented by our reach into a broader market of customers in the idea stage through our recent acquisitions of Premier Farnell and Hackster,” said Avnet CEO William Amelio. “We will now be able to focus all of our attention and considerable expertise and scale in supporting our customers at every phase of the product life cycle with services that offer a time-to-market advantage. We also have substantial financial resources to further drive our targeted investments in integrated and embedded solutions, IoT (Internet of things) and digital platforms to create even more opportunities for makers, entrepreneurs and large manufacturers.”

Avnet sold its tech solutions business for $2.4 billion in cash and $245 million of Tech Data common stock.

Avnet has distributed electronic components for more than 95 years. It works with customers’ tech needs in more than 125 countries.

The buy for the Clearwater, Florida-based Tech Data Corp. (Nasdaq: TECD) creates a global end-to-end IT distributor with diverse solutions from the data center to the living room.

“This is a momentous day in our company’s history and we are excited to welcome our talented colleagues at Technology Solutions to the Tech Data family,” said Tech Data CEO Bob Dutkowsky. “Our combined company is perfectly positioned at the epicenter of the IT ecosystem — with the scale and scope to serve dynamic markets throughout the world — giving our customers access to an end-to-end portfolio of IT solutions and efficiently bringing our vendors’ products to new customers in more markets.”

The combined company has a larger geographic footprint, including a presence and new market in the Asia-Pacific region. Tech Data now has operations in 40 countries, with 14,000 employees serving 115,000 customers in more than 100 countries.

“Our organizations’ common cultures, shared values and commitment to providing a world-class customer experience will serve as the foundation for the new Tech Data,” Dutkowsky said. “Together, we will be an even stronger company, capable of doing more for our channel partners than ever before. We remain confident that the acquisition of Technology Solutions creates a winning combination for our customers, vendors and shareholders, as well as the employees of both organizations.”
