Arrow Electronics Upsizes Its Asset Securitization Program
-- Liquidity under the new three-year program increases to $775 million --
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 8, 2011--Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) announced that the company has increased the size of its existing asset securitization program. Under the new program, the company now has available liquidity of $775 million. The revised program is a three-year agreement effective December 7, 2011. The banks in the asset securitization program are Bank of America, Wells Fargo, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, The Bank of Nova Scotia, HSBC, and Mizuho.
The asset securitization program is collateralized by North American accounts receivables of certain of the company’s subsidiaries and is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, a wholly owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheet.
