DXP ENTERPRISES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY
DXP Enterprises, Inc. together with its subsidiaries (collectively “DXP,” “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in Texas on July 26, 1996, to be the successor to SEPCO Industries, Inc. DXP Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the business of distributing maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, equipment and service to industrial customers. The Company is organized into three business segments: Service Centers, Supply Chain Services (SCS) and Innovative Pumping Solutions (IPS). See Note 12 for discussion of the business segments.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“USGAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. For a more complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and business practices, refer to the consolidated annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2014.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which requires entities to present unrecognized tax benefits as a liability and not combine it with deferred tax assets to the extent a net operating loss carry-forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry-forward is not available at the reporting date. ASU 2013-11 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. DXP adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2014. There was no material effect on our financial statements.
NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Authoritative guidance for financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis applies to all financial assets and financial liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. Fair value, as defined in the authoritative guidance, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The authoritative guidance affects the fair value measurement of an investment with quoted market prices in an active market for identical instruments, which must be classified in one of the following categories:
Level 1 Inputs
Level 1 inputs come from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs
Level 2 inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable for an asset or liability. These inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 Inputs
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability which require the Company’s own assumptions.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The following table presents the changes in Level 1 assets for the period indicated (in thousands):

On July 11, 2012, DXP entered into a credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent for the lenders (as amended, the “Original Facility”). On December 31, 2012, the Company amended the Original Facility which increased the Credit Facility by $75 million. On January 2, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent for other lenders (the “Facility”), amending the Company’s Original Facility.
The Facility provides a term loan and a $350 million revolving line of credit to the Company. At March 31, 2014 the term loan component of the facility was $240.6 million.
The Facility provides the option of interest at LIBOR (or CDOR for Canadian dollar loans) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or prime plus an applicable margin from 0.25% to 1.50% where the applicable margin is determined by the Company’s leverage ratio as defined by the Facility as of the last day of the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to the date of borrowing. Commitment fees of 0.20% to 0.45% per annum are payable on the portion of the Facility capacity not in use at any given time on the line of credit. Commitment fees are included as interest in the consolidated statements of income.
On March 31, 2014, the LIBOR based rate of the Facility was LIBOR plus 2.0%, the prime based rate of the Facility was prime plus 1.0%, and the commitment fee was 0.35%. At March 31, 2014, $463.6 million was borrowed under the Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.16% under the LIBOR options. At March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $113.4 million available for borrowing under the Facility.
The Facility expires on January 2, 2019. The Facility contains financial covenants defining various financial measures and levels of these measures with which the Company must comply. Covenant compliance is assessed as of each quarter end. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral to secure the credit facility.
NOTE 9 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Restricted Stock
Under the restricted stock plan approved by our shareholders (the “Restricted Stock Plan”), directors, consultants and employees may be awarded shares of DXP’s common stock. The shares of restricted stock granted to employees and that are outstanding as of March 31, 2014 vest in accordance with one of the following vesting schedules: 100% one year after date of grant; 33.3% each year for three years after date of grant; 20% each year for five years after the grant date; or 10% each year for ten years after the grant date. The Restricted Stock Plan provides that on each July 1 during the term of the plan each non-employee director of DXP will be granted the number of whole shares calculated by dividing $75 thousand by the closing price of the common stock on such July 1. The shares of restricted stock granted to non-employee directors of DXP vest one year after the grant date. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured based upon the closing prices of DXP’s common stock on the grant dates and is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period of the awards. Once restricted stock vests, new shares of the Company’s stock are issued.
The following table provides certain information regarding the shares authorized and outstanding under the Restricted Stock Plan at March 31, 2014:

NOTE 11 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Revenues and expenses of the acquired businesses have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements beginning on their respective dates of acquisition. The allocation of purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities is based on estimates of fair market value and may be prospectively revised if and when additional information the Company is awaiting concerning certain asset and liability valuations is obtained, provided that such information is received no later than one year after the date of acquisition. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. It specifically includes the expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of our acquisitions with the operations of DXP and any intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition such as the assembled workforce.
On April 16, 2013, DXP acquired all of the stock of National Process Equipment Inc. (“NatPro”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, DXP Canada Enterprises Ltd. DXP acquired this business to expand DXP’s geographic presence in Canada and strengthen DXP’s pump, integrated system packaging, compressor, and related equipment offering. The $40.0 million purchase price was financed with $36.6 million of borrowings under DXP's existing credit facility and 52,542 shares of DXP common stock. Additionally, the purchase agreement included an earn-out provision, which stated that former owners of NatPro may earn $6.0 million based on achievement of an earnings target during the first year of DXP’s ownership. The fair value of the earn-out recorded at the acquisition date was $2.8 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s earn-out liability was estimated to be zero and $2.8 million was recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expense in the fourth quarter of 2013. No earn-out was earned. Estimated goodwill of $24.6 million and intangible assets of $14.8 million were recognized for this acquisition. None of the estimated goodwill or intangible assets are expected to be tax deductible. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is included in both the Service Centers segment and IPS segment.
On May 17, 2013, DXP acquired substantially all of the assets of Tucker Tool Company, Inc. (“Tucker Tool”). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP's geographic presence in the northern U.S. and strengthen DXP's industrial cutting tools offering. DXP paid approximately $5.0 million for Tucker Tool which was borrowed under our existing credit facility. Estimated goodwill of $3.2 and intangible assets of $1.5 million were recognized for this acquisition. All of the goodwill is included in the Service Centers segment.
On July 1, 2013, DXP acquired all of the stock of Alaska Pump & Supply, Inc. (APS). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP's geographic presence in Alaska. DXP paid approximately $13.0 million for APS which was borrowed under our existing credit facility. Estimated goodwill of $8.1 million and intangible assets of $4.1 million were recognized for this acquisition. None of the estimated goodwill or intangible assets are expected to be tax deductible. All of the goodwill is included in the Service Centers segment.
On July 31, 2013, DXP acquired substantially all of the assets of Tool-Tech Industrial Machine & Supply, Inc. (“Tool-Tech”). DXP acquired this business to enhance our metal working product offering in the southwest region of the United States. DXP paid approximately $7.6 million for Tool-Tech which was borrowed under our existing credit facility. Estimated goodwill of $4.9 million and intangible assets of $2.4 million were recognized for this acquisition. All of the estimated goodwill is included in the Service Centers segment.
On January 2, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity securities and units of B27, LLC (“B27”) by way of a Securities Purchase Agreement to expand DXP’s pump packaging offering. The total transaction value was approximately $293.6 million, excluding approximately $1.0 million in transaction costs recognized within SG&A in the 2013 statement of income. The purchase price was financed with borrowings under DXP’s amended credit facility and approximately $4.0 million (36,000 shares) of DXP common stock. DXP has not completed appraisals of intangibles for B27, and therefore, has made preliminary estimates for purposes of this disclosure. Estimated goodwill of $186.0 million and intangible assets of $81.1 million were recognized for this acquisition. Approximately $213.7 million of the estimated goodwill or intangible assets are expected not to be tax deductible. The estimated goodwill associated with this acquisition will be included in the IPS segment.
The value assigned to the non-compete agreements and customer relationships for business acquisitions were determined by discounting the estimated cash flows associated with non-compete agreements and customer relationships as of the date the acquisition was consummated. The estimated cash flows were based on estimated revenues net of operating expenses and net of capital charges for assets that contribute to the projected cash flow from these assets. The projected revenues and operating expenses were estimated based on management estimates. Net capital charges for assets that contribute to projected cash flow were based on the estimated fair value of those assets. For the acquisitions discussed above, discount rates of 13.5% to 15.9% were deemed appropriate for valuing these assets and were based on the risks associated with the respective cash flows taking into consideration the acquired company’s weighted average cost of capital.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, businesses acquired during 2013 and 2014 contributed sales of $23.0 million and $30.4 million, respectively, and earnings (loss) before taxes of approximately $(0.8) million and $(1.5) million, respectively.

DXP is organized into three business segments: Service Centers, Supply Chain Services (SCS) and Innovative Pumping Solutions (IPS). The Service Centers are engaged in providing maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, equipment and integrated services, including technical expertise and logistics capabilities, to industrial customers with the ability to provide same day delivery. The Service Centers provide a wide range of MRO products and services in the rotating equipment, bearing, power transmission, hose, fluid power, metal working, industrial supply and safety product and service categories. The SCS segment manages all or part of our customer’s supply chain, including inventory. The IPS segment fabricates and assembles integrated pump system packages custom made to customer specifications.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2013
SALES. Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased $58.4 million, or 20.1%, to approximately $348.5 million from $290.1 million for the prior corresponding period. Sales by businesses acquired accounted for $53.4 million of the first quarter increase. Excluding first quarter 2014 sales from businesses acquired, on a same store sales basis, sales for the first quarter in 2014 increased by $5.0 million, or 1.7% from the prior corresponding period. This sales increase is primarily the result of one additional day in the current period.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased by 1.5% compared with the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily the result of businesses acquired in 2013 and 2014 having a lower gross profit percentage then the remainder of DXP and partially a result of changes in customer and product mix in the Service Centers segment.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by approximately $13.1 million to $79.5 million from $66.4 million for the prior corresponding period. Selling, general and administrative expense from businesses acquired accounted for $13.2 million of the first quarter increase. Excluding first quarter expenses from businesses acquired, on a same store sales basis, SG&A for the quarter slightly decreased by $0.1 million. As a percentage of sales, the first quarter 2014 expense decreased to 22.8%, from 22.9% for the prior corresponding period as a result of the decline in SG&A for the remainder of DXP after excluding businesses acquired in 2013 and 2014.
OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the first quarter of 2014 decreased $0.5 million, or 2.4% compared to the prior corresponding period. This decrease in operating income is primarily the result of the 1.5% decrease in the gross profit percentage discussed above.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased 108.8% from the prior corresponding period primarily due to increased borrowings on January 2, 2014 to fund our January 2, 2014 acquisition further discussed in the Business Acquisitions and Supplemental Pro-forma Data section herein. The increased borrowings for the acquisition also increased the interest rate on our borrowings.
SERVICE CENTERS SEGMENT. Sales for the Service Centers segment increased by $21.1 million, or 10.1% for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the prior corresponding period. Excluding first quarter 2014 Service Centers segment sales from acquired businesses of $20.9 million, Service Centers segment sales for the first quarter in 2014 increased $0.2 million, or 0.1% from the prior corresponding period, on a same store sales basis. This sales increase is primarily the result of an additional business day in the current period. Operating income for the Service Centers segment decreased 2.5%. Excluding first quarter Service Centers segment operating income from acquired businesses of $1.9 million, Service Centers segment operating income for the first quarter in 2014 decreased by $2.5 million, or 10.1% primarily as a result of a 1.5% decline in the gross profit percentage for the segment on a same store sales basis.
INNOVATIVE PUMPING SOLUTIONS SEGMENT. Sales for the IPS segment increased by $38.4 million, or 92.4% for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the prior corresponding period. Excluding first quarter 2014 IPS segment sales from acquired businesses of $32.6 million, IPS segment sales for the first quarter in 2014 increased 14.0% from the prior corresponding period, on a same store sales basis. The sales increase primarily resulted from an increase in capital spending by our oil and gas and mining related customers. Operating income for the IPS segment increased 34.2% primarily as a result of the 92.4% increase in sales. Operating income increased by less than the 92.4% increase in sales, primarily as a result of operating income for the acquired businesses, as a percentage of sales, being lower than the remainder of the IPS segment.
SUPPLY CHAIN SERVICES SEGMENT. Sales for the SCS segment decreased by $1.1 million, or 2.8%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the prior corresponding period. The decrease in sales is primarily related to declines in sales to customers serving the automotive and truck manufacturing industries. Operating income for the SCS segment decreased 2.0% primarily as a result of the 2.8% decline in sales.
BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND SUPPLEMENTAL PRO-FORMA DATA
A key component of our growth strategy includes completing acquisitions of businesses with complementary or desirable product lines, locations or customers. Since 2004, we have completed 29 acquisitions across our three business segments. Below is a summary of recent acquisitions.
On April 16, 2013, DXP acquired all of the stock of National Process Equipment Inc. (“NatPro”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, DXP Canada Enterprises Ltd. DXP acquired this business to expand DXP’s geographic presence in Canada and strengthen DXP’s pump, integrated system packaging, compressor, and related equipment offering. The $40.0 million purchase price was financed with $36.6 million of borrowings under DXP's existing credit facility and 52,542 shares of DXP common stock. Additionally, the purchase agreement included an earn-out provision, which stated that former owners of NatPro may earn CDN $6.0 million based on achievement of an earnings target during the first year of DXP’s ownership. The fair value of the earn-out recorded at the acquisition date was $2.8 million. As of December 31, 2013 the $2.8 million accrued liability associated with this earn-out provision was reversed and included in 2013 operating income. No earn-out was earned through its expiration on April 16, 2014.
On May 17, 2013, DXP acquired substantially all of the assets of Tucker Tool Company, Inc. (“Tucker Tool”). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP's geographic presence in the northern U.S. and strengthen DXP's industrial cutting tools offering. DXP paid approximately $5.0 million for Tucker Tool which was borrowed under our existing credit facility.
On July 1, 2103, DXP acquired all of the stock of Alaska Pump & Supply, Inc. (APS). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP's geographic presence in Alaska. DXP paid approximately $13.0 million for APS which was borrowed under our existing credit facility.
On July 31, 2103, DXP acquired substantially all of the assets of Tool-Tech Industrial Machine & Supply, Inc. (“Tool-Tech”). DXP acquired this business to enhance our metal working product offering in the southwest region of the United States. DXP paid approximately $7.6 million for Tool-Tech which was borrowed under our existing credit facility.
On January 2, 2014, the Company acquired all of the equity securities and units of B27, LLC (“B27”). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP’s pump packaging offering. The total transaction value was approximately $293.6 million, excluding approximately $1.0 million in transaction costs. The purchase price was financed with borrowings under DXP’s amended credit facility and approximately $4.0 million (36,000 shares) of DXP common stock.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, businesses acquired during 2013 and 2014 contributed sales of $23.0 million and $30.4 million, respectively, and earnings (loss) before taxes of approximately $(0.8) million and $(1.5) million, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General Overview
As a distributor of MRO products and services, we require significant amounts of working capital to fund inventories and accounts receivable. Additional cash is required for capital items for information technology, warehouse equipment and safety services equipment. We also require cash to pay our lease obligations and to service our debt.
The Company generated $20.7 million of cash in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $16.9 million during the prior corresponding period. This change between the two periods was primarily driven by changes in working capital.
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the amount available to be borrowed under our credit agreement with our bank lender decreased from $154.1 million at December 31, 2013 to $113.4 million at March 31, 2014. This decrease in availability primarily resulted from the acquisition of B27 and the January 2, 2014 amendment and restatement of the Original Facility.
Credit Facility
On July 11, 2012, DXP entered into a credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent for the lenders (as amended, the “Original Facility”). On December 31, 2012, the Company amended the Original Facility which increased the Credit Facility by $75 million. On January 2, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent for other lenders (the “Facility”), amending the Company’s Original Facility.
The Facility provides a term loan and a $350 million revolving line of credit to the company. At March 31, 2014 the term loan component of the facility was $240.6 million.
The Facility provides the option of interest at LIBOR (or CDOR for Canadian dollar loans) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or prime plus an applicable margin from 0.25% to 1.50% where the applicable margin is determined by the Company’s leverage ratio as defined by the Facility as of the last day of the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to the date of borrowing. Commitment fees of 0.20% to 0.45% per annum are payable on the portion of the Facility capacity not in use at any given time on the line of credit. Commitment fees are included as interest in the consolidated statements of income.
On March 31, 2014, the LIBOR based rate of the Facility was LIBOR plus 2.0%, the prime based rate of the Facility was prime plus 1.0%, and the commitment fee was 0.35%. At March 31, 2014, $463.6 million was borrowed under the Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.16% under the LIBOR options. At March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $113.4 million available for borrowing under the Facility.
The Facility expires on January 2, 2019. The Facility contains financial covenants defining various financial measures and levels of these measures with which the Company must comply. Covenant compliance is assessed as of each quarter end. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral to secure the credit facility.
The Facility’s principal financial covenants include:
Consolidated Leverage Ratio – The Facility requires that the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, determined at the end of each fiscal quarter, not exceed 3.75 to 1.0 as of the last day of each quarter from the closing date through June 30, 2014, not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 at September 30, 2014, and not to exceed 3.25 to 1.00 from December 31, 2014 and thereafter. The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is defined as the outstanding indebtedness divided by Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date. Indebtedness is defined under the Facility for financial covenant purposes as: (a) all obligations of DXP for borrowed money including but not limited to obligations evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or other similar instruments; (b) obligations to pay deferred purchase price of property or services; (c) capital lease obligations; (d) obligations under conditional sale or other title retention agreements relating to property purchased; (e) issued and outstanding letters of credit; and (f) contingent obligations for funded indebtedness. At March 31, 2014, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 2.99 to 1.00.
Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio –The Facility requires that the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on the last day of each quarter be not less than 1.25 to 1.0 with “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” defined as the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA for the period of 4 consecutive fiscal quarters ending on such date minus capital expenditures during such period (excluding acquisitions) minus income tax expense paid minus the aggregate amount of restricted payments defined in the agreement to (b) the interest expense paid in cash, scheduled principal payments in respect of long-term debt and the current portion of capital lease obligations for such 12-month period, determined in each case on a consolidated basis for DXP and its subsidiaries. At March 31, 2014, the Company's Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio was 2.46 to 1.00.
Asset Coverage Ratio –The credit facility requires that the Asset Coverage Ratio at any time, beginning on December 31, 2014, be not less than 1.0 to 1.0 with “Asset Coverage Ratio” defined as the ratio of (a) the sum of 85% of net accounts receivable plus 65% of net inventory to (b) the aggregate outstanding amount of the revolving credit outstandings on such date. At March 31, 2014, the Company's Asset Coverage Ratio was 1.19 to 1.00, but the Asset Coverage Ratio does not apply until December 31, 2014.
Consolidated EBITDA as defined under the Facility for financial covenant purposes means, without duplication, for any period the consolidated net income of DXP plus, to the extent deducted in calculating consolidated net income, depreciation, amortization (except to the extent that such non-cash charges are reserved for cash charges to be taken in the future), non-cash compensation including stock option or restricted stock expense, interest expense and income tax expense for taxes based on income, certain one-time costs associated with our acquisitions, integration costs, facility consolidation and closing costs, severance costs and expenses and one-time compensation costs in connection with the acquisition of HSE and any permitted acquisition, write-down of cash expenses incurred in connection with the existing credit agreement and extraordinary losses less interest income and extraordinary gains. Consolidated EBITDA shall be adjusted to give pro forma effect to disposals or business acquisitions assuming that such transaction(s) had occurred on the first day of the period excluding all income statement items attributable to the assets or equity interests that is subject to such disposition made during the period and including all income statement items attributable to property or equity interests of such acquisitions permitted under the Facility.

Accounts receivable days of sales outstanding were 67.0 days at March 31, 2014 compared to 61.1 days at March 31, 2013. The 5.9 days increase was primarily from acquired businesses that historically have had more days sales in receivables. Inventory turns were 9.0 times compared to 8.2 times at March 31, 2013. The 0.8 times increase is primarily related to changes in customer and product mix.
Funding Commitments
We believe our cash generated from operations and cash available under our credit facility will meet our normal working capital needs during the next twelve months. However, we may require additional debt or equity financing to fund potential acquisitions. Such additional financings may include additional bank debt or the public or private sale of debt or equity securities. In connection with any such financing, we may issue securities that substantially dilute the interests of our shareholders. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on attractive terms, if at all.
Share Repurchases
On October 26, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized DXP from time to time to purchase up to 200,000 shares of DXP's common stock over 24 months. DXP publicly announced the authorization that day. Purchases could be made in open market or in privately negotiated transactions. DXP purchased 146,871 shares under this authorization as of its expiration on October 25, 2013.
Acquisitions
All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Revenues and expenses of the acquired businesses have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements beginning on their respective dates of acquisition. The allocation of purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities is based on estimates of fair market value.
DISCUSSION OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS POLICIES
Critical accounting and business policies are those that are both most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial position and results of operations, and require management’s subjective or complex judgments. These policies have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of DXP.
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“USGAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. For a more complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and business practices, refer to the consolidated annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2014.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which requires entities to present unrecognized tax benefits as a liability and not combine it with deferred tax assets to the extent a net operating loss carry-forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry-forward is not available at the reporting date. ASU 2013-11 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. DXP adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2014. There was no material effect on our financial statements.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Our market risk results from volatility in interest rates. Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our debt portfolio. Using floating interest rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2014, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in approximately a $4.6 million change in annual interest expense.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was evaluated by our management with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, David R. Little (principal executive officer), and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Mac McConnell (principal financial officer). Messrs. Little and McConnell have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to help ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file with the SEC is accumulated and communicated to management and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by the SEC.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter (the quarter ended March 31, 2014) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While DXP is unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits, it believes that the ultimate resolution will not have, either individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on DXP’s consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
No material changes have occurred from risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
