Biggest changeMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) the impact to DPOs of the SADA and Amdaris acquisitions combined with changes in vendor mix away from discount vendors; the benefit to DIOs of the easing of supply constraints; and the impact to DSOs of the SADA and Amdaris acquisitions combined with an increase in other receivables including multi-year transactions. Our cash conversion cycle is impacted by netted costs that we apply to our services net sales to appropriately record net sales that we earn as an agent.
Biggest changeMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) Our cash conversion cycle was 7 days in the quarter ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of 22 days when compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The changes in our cash conversion cycle compared to the same period in the prior year resulted from the net effect of a 58 day increase in DPOs and a 2 day decrease in DIOs partially offset by a 38 day increase in DSOs. The changes in our cash conversion cycle year over year were primarily the result of: The impact to DPOs of netting on certain revenue streams (agent net revenue) that flow through accounts payable on a gross basis while flowing through our income statement on a net basis including a significant agency transaction that based on its terms had not cleared by quarter end as well as changes in vendor mix; the benefit to DIOs of the reduction in hardware sales; and the impact to DSOs of netting on certain revenue streams (agent net revenue) that flow through accounts receivable on a gross basis while flowing through our income statement on a net basis including a significant agency transaction that based on its terms had not cleared by quarter end. Our cash conversion cycle is impacted by netted costs that we apply to our services net sales to appropriately record net sales that we earn as an agent.

The net changes were primarily the result of the following: The decrease in hardware net sales was due to lower volume of sales to large enterprise and corporate clients. The increase in services net sales was due to higher volume of Insight Delivered services and higher sales of cloud solution offerings that are recorded on a net sales recognition basis in the services net sales category. The increase in software net sales was primarily due to higher volume of sales to corporate and public sector clients, partially offset by the continued trend toward higher sales of cloud solution offerings.

Adjusting our cash conversion cycle calculation by adding netted costs to both daily net sales and daily costs of goods sold results in a reduction to our cash conversion cycle from 29 days to 22 days in the fourth quarter of 2023 and from 40 days to 28 days in the fourth quarter of 2022, which we believe provides a more accurate reflection of our cash flow operating metrics. We expect that cash flow from operations will be used, at least partially, to fund working capital as we typically pay our partners on average terms that are shorter than the average terms we grant to our clients in order to take advantage of supplier discounts. We intend to use cash generated in 2024, in excess of working capital needs, to pay down our ABL facility and our inventory financing facilities as well as to fund strategic acquisitions.
