“We reinitiated a position in SNX as we believe the company’s recent merger with Tech Data has created the top global IT distributor with potential for significant EPS accretion through cost and revenue synergies. The company recently held its first analyst day since the transaction closed in September at which management laid out a path that we believe will achieve EPS of $20 in a few years. We acquired our stake at an average price of $105.33, or just over 9x current year consensus EPS. SNX shares ended the quarter at $103.21.”
