Deals between APH and its directors, executives, owners of more than 5% or their families: a relative on the payroll,
a plane the company charters from its CEO, a director's company that buys from it. SEC rules (Item 404) make the company list every such deal over $120,000 in its proxy statement.
Below: what the proxy filed 2026-04-08 reports that the one filed 2025-04-04 did not, quoted as filed.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
“The Company has adopted a written policy for the review and approval of transactions and arrangements between the Company and the Company’s current directors, director nominees, current executive officers, greater than five percent stockholders, and their immediate family members. All transactions, regardless of amount, are required to be reported to and reviewed by the General Counsel of the Company who is required to report the results of his review to the Board or independent Directors, as appropriate. Following this review, the Board would determine whether any such transaction is in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, taking into consideration whether any such transaction is on terms no less favorable to the Company than those available with unrelated third parties and the related person’s interest in the transaction. As required under the rules of the SEC, transactions that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to the Company or a related person must be disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement.”

Paragraphs are compared by their words, not read by AI: one counts as new when no paragraph last year shares half of its words, or when it names a person or company last year's section did not.
A deal reported again with a new amount is not new. Always check the filing.
