Seagate is managing supply chain risk by locking in $2.1 billion in unconditional purchase obligations, with $1.6 billion due within a year. This highlights their dependence on a limited number of suppliers for key materials like rare earth elements and creates pressure to optimize inventory and logistics.
Filing excerpt
As of July 3, 2026, we had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $2.1 billion, primarily related to purchases of inventory components with our suppliers. We expect $1.6 billion of these commitments to be paid within one year.
