"We have moved from adoption to performance on our XvantageTM platform, with AI-led net sales up more than sixty percent year-over-year in our largest countries. As we continue with our platform deployment and build on our growing portfolio of patents, we remain confident in our ability to further differentiate ourselves as a technology company and further improve our financial model to create long-term value for customers, vendors, and stockholders."

"We delivered a strong start to fiscal 2026, with double-digit growth in key profitability metrics, driven by disciplined execution, coupled with continued optimization and rigorous expense management," said Mike Zilis, Ingram Micro's Chief Financial Officer. "Going forward, we are managing for operating leverage, profitability and return on investment while continuing to invest in our XvantageTM platform and other strategic growth initiatives. We also remain committed to returning capital to stockholders through our increased quarterly dividend and our authorized share repurchase program. In the first quarter, we successfully completed a secondary offering of our stock, which included repurchasing $75 million of stock directly from our majority owner. Today we announced we are expanding the repurchase program to maximize flexibility to further repurchase stock in the future."

Nvidia Says It Will Double Chip Sales Next Year. The Supply Chain Is Where That Gets Decided.

Nvidia Says It Will Double Chip Sales Next Year. The Supply Chain Is Where That Gets Decided.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang forecasted doubling chip sales next year, but the company's CFO frames this as the supply-unconstrained scenario, signaling that supply chain capacity, not demand, is the real constraint. Nvidia and Palantir launched a collaboration to apply AI to Nvidia's own supply chain operations to identify bottlenecks and allocate materials more effectively.

  • 01Nvidia's doubling forecast depends on supply chain throughput, not demand—the company itself is supply constrained according to CFO Colette Kress.
  • 02Nvidia and Palantir said their first sovereign AI deployment for Nvidia’s operations is designed to spot supply constraints earlier and improve how materials are allocated across production.
  • 03Enterprise buyers should plan for competitive allocation pressure, higher networking and infrastructure costs alongside GPU spending, and the emergence of on-premises architectures as first-class options.

Fifth Third, Priority and CSI deals put a premium on payments built into software

Fifth Third, Priority and CSI deals put a premium on payments built into software

Fifth Third led a strategic investment in Payload, Priority Commerce agreed to acquire IntelliPay, and CSI acquired Qolo in a series of summer transactions, PYMNTS reported. Together, the deals point to buyers valuing payments technology already integrated into the software customers use, not just standalone processing capacity. For operators, that means the entity holding payment data can change hands without the front-end software changing.

  • 01BCG puts software providers with integrated payments at 36% of small and midsize business acquiring revenue in 2024, heading to 45% by 2028, a benchmark for where merchant payment spend is shifting.
  • 02Finance and IT leaders at firms running property, practice management or utility billing software should check who actually owns the payment module in their contract, because that is the asset being bought.

System integrators decide whether factory tech pays off, Smart Industry argues

System integrators decide whether factory tech pays off, Smart Industry argues

Smart Industry’s Sept. 9, 2026 piece argues plant technology creates no business value until system integrators fit it into existing systems, operations and workflows. Related summer coverage highlights upskilling, institutional knowledge and technician demand alongside the same integration-and-deployment theme. The framing shifts attention from which platform to buy to who implements it and how the engagement is scoped.

  • 01Smart Industry's framing moves the buying question from which platform to license to who integrates it and how that engagement is scoped, which puts the system integrator line item at the center of the return rather than in implementation overhead.
  • 02Gartner figures cited by Quality Magazine show 24% of industrial enterprises using IoT have implemented digital twins and 42% plan to, suggesting most IoT-using plants still have digital twin integration work ahead.
  • 03The Deloitte and Manufacturing Institute report, as covered by Smart Industry, says AI can embed skills into workflows to address technician demand; the sharper question for a plant manager is whether that changes headcount or changes what each technician can cover.
