3 Why customers finance Dell Financial Services

4 Benefits of financing Ease budget constraints
Spread IT costs over several cycles Retain cash for investing in their business Increase operational efficiency Add new items to the customer’s financing agreement at any time Customize lease terms to minimize payments or co-terminate all assets Simplify budgeting and payments Finance the total solution with one vendor Consolidate and customize payments Accelerate ROI Pay over time and match payments with benefit realization Leverage time value of money // KEY POINT// Financing with DFS can help address your customer’s pain points and enable you to deliver business results. // SUMMARY// You may be familiar with leasing and financing as a way to preserve cash, but there are a variety of other benefits financing provides. In fact, some of the largest, most cash-rich customers in the world choose to finance their technology with Dell Financial Services because they know about the additional value that financing brings. Ease budget constraints: First, financing allows your customer to operationalize IT acquisition costs. Instead of making a lump-sum payment for hardware, software and services, they can make payments over time and either lease or own the technology at the end of the term. That, in turn, allows them to apply the remaining funds to their business, as opposed to making a single, lump-sum payment. Increase operational efficiency: Unlike a cash purchase, financed transactions are more fluid. Their infrastructure becomes more nimble, with the ability to grow when needed without relying on a fixed, capital budget or line item approvals. You can also tailor their lease term to fit their business goals. Do they need a lower payment? Simply extend the length of the term. Do they have too many lease agreements with different expiration dates? DFS can consolidate all of them into a single payment stream. Simplify budgeting and payments: DFS can finance any combination of Dell, EMC and VMware hardware, software and services, including third-party products. Everything is consolidated into a single lease agreement, providing your customer with greater simplicity and a streamlined payment structure. Accelerate ROI: Financing aligns payments to IT benefits, thereby maximizing their IT investment without the capital outlay associated with an outright purchase. This means that your customer can grow their IT to keep pace with business demands while freeing additional capital for business investments.

5 Lease vs. buy

6 Benefits of rotation leasing
Protect against technology obsolescence Simplify asset disposal Rotation leasing facilitates regular technology upgrades Implement new technology all at once or on a phased basis End of lease specialists assist with end of term equipment management No lengthy auto-renewals Leverage multiple end of lease services including data wipe and return logistics End of lease residual value lowers monthly payments Regular upgrades reduce energy and support costs Reduce TCO // KEY POINT// Rotation leasing offers several unique benefits when compared with financing Key benefits including protection against technology obsolescence and the ability to reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO). DFS also provides end-of-lease products and services to facilitate a more efficient asset disposal process. // SUMMARY// Customers who lease technology assets typically do so to achieve two common goals: 1) protection against technology obsolescence and 2) reduction of costs. Let’s examine those topics a bit more closely, as well as the additional end of lease services that DFS offers. Protect against technology obsolescence: Leasing facilitates a fixed rotation schedule whereby assets are replaced on a regular interval. Because costs are operationalized, technology can be refreshed as part of the normal lease cycle, as opposed to depending on capital budget approval. Refresh intervals can be staggered so that technology is refreshed gradually when it’s convenient for you. Additionally, DFS does not impose lengthy auto-renewals at the end of term; instead, your customer has the flexibility to renew their contract on a month-to-month basis. Simplify asset disposal: One of the unique benefits that DFS provides is our knowledge of the resale market. We are the largest reseller of Dell EMC products and we know what those products are worth in several years’ time. That value is subtracted from the lease cost, making our Fair Market Value rates some of the most competitive in the industry. At the end of lease, a variety of options are available, including data wipe and return logistics. We can manage as much or as little as you’d like, and any incremental cost can be operationalized as part of the lease agreement. Unlike banks, we do not impose lengthy auto-renewals. Your customer has the ability to pay month-to-month following lease expiration. And we have a dedicated team of EOL specialists who can help them determine which option is best for their business prior to contract expiration. Reduce TCO: In addition to protecting against technology obsolescence, one of the key benefits of rotation leasing is its ability to lower their total cost of ownership. This is evidenced by a reduction in internal support costs, i.e. the time their IT staff is spending maintaining declining assets vs. innovating. By keeping assets current, IDC has shown a significant savings over a six year ownership term, which we’ll see on the following slide.

7 Case study: Leasing reduces TCO
PCs managed through rotation leasing cost 24% less than PCs that are purchased outright.* *Source: IDC white paper, sponsored by DFS, “Financial solutions to enable your PC lifecycle strategy,” August 2017. // KEY POINT// Leveraging rotation leasing for two, three-year lease cycles results in a significant savings vs. a six year ownership period. // SUMMARY// As assets age, support costs increase dramatically, especially after year three. For customers that keep their equipment well past its useful life using a ‘fail-in-place’ methodology, there is a very tangible and rising “cost of doing nothing”. The cost is tied to the time spent by their IT staff maintaining declining assets. IDC compared two, three-year lease cycles against a six-year ownership period and found that x86 servers that were leased cost 32% less than those that were purchased outright. By refreshing technology in year three, support costs are mitigated. Additionally, assets perform better and IT staff has more time to spend on business innovation. IDC repeated this study with PCs and found that TCO was 24% lower.

10 Leasing options & practices Software Installment Payments
Lease types Rotation Solution Fair Market Value lease (FMV) The customer wants flexibility at end of lease - return the equipment to DFS, or pay the Fair Market Value to purchase the equipment. Ownership Solution Finance Lease Software Installment Payments The customer predetermines that at the end of the lease, they will purchase the equipment or software for a buyout price of $1. Partner Ships and sets price for equipment to customer. Lease agreements DFS Pays Partner then collects from customer. Snap lease & Quick Contract Snap lease is for customers who lease infrequently, or for small orders. Typically for a single order of equipment. Quick Contract is an online process which closes the transaction quickly and results in our partners getting paid faster. Master lease agreement Pre-negotiated lease terms tailored to customer needs Rapidly order, rapidly receive Umbrella agreement; some rights and obligations covered before lease schedule is signed Customer Pays DFS for use of equipment over time. // KEY POINTS// Understand how the leasing relationship works between you, the partner, DFS and the customer. // SUMMARY// Let’s discuss the different lease types and lease agreements offered through DFS. But before we do it’s important to understand how the leasing relationship works between you the Partner, DFS and the customer. As the partner you will set the price of the equipment and ship it to the customer. DFS will pay you for the sold equipment and then begin collecting from the customer. The customer will pay for the use of the equipment over time. As part of the leasing relationship, customers must decide which lease type and lease agreement best suits their needs. Customers should consider if they want a rotation solution – rotating their leased equipment on a regular basis, or an ownership solution – in which they’ll own the equipment at the end of the lease. DFS offers Fair Market Value leases for customers needing rotation solutions, and the Finance Lease, also known as the dollar buy out lease for ownership solutions. The FMV, or Fair Market Value lease allows customers to pay for the use and possession of the equipment with end of lease options: Return to Dell for disposal, or purchase the equipment outright for the current market value. The finance lease allows customers to pay monthly for the use and possession of the equipment, then at the end of the lease, buy the equipment for $1. This is great for long term ownership, and customers that expect a long lifespan from their equipment. Once the leasing solution is determined the customers must decide if this lease should be a single transaction, covered under what’s known as a SNAP agreement or Quick Contract or part of a larger leasing initiative, covered under a Master Lease Agreement.
