#### Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 24, 2026, WESCO International, Inc. (the "Company") announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, WESCO Distribution, Inc. (the "Issuer"), commenced and subsequently priced a private offering (the "Offering") to eligible purchasers, subject to market and other conditions, of $650 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due 2031 (the "5-Year Notes") and $850 million aggregate principal amount of 5.500% senior notes due 2034 (the "8-Year Notes" and, together with the 5-Year Notes, the "Notes"). The aggregate principal amount of the 8-Year Notes to be issued in the Offering has been increased from the previously announced $650 million to $850 million.

The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from this Offering to redeem all of its outstanding 7.250% senior notes due 2028 (the "Wesco 2028 Notes") on or after June 15, 2026 and repay a portion of the amount outstanding under the ABL Facility (as defined below). Prior to redeeming the Wesco 2028 Notes, the Issuer intends to (i) use the net proceeds from this Offering to temporarily repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under its accounts receivable securitization facility (the "Receivables Facility") and its asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") and (ii) subsequently redraw under the Receivables Facility and the ABL Facility in an aggregate amount sufficient to redeem the Wesco 2028 Notes. The Notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and will be guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis by the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Anixter Inc.

Copies of the press releases announcing the launch and pricing of the Offering are being filed as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not and will not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes or any other securities, nor will there be any sale of the Notes or any other securities, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful. Any offer will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the Wesco 2028 Notes.

The Notes and related guarantees are being offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be "qualified institutional buyers" under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act. The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.
