DXP Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXPE) today announced preliminary (unreviewed) financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021. The following are results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and sequentially for the three months ended March 31, 2021, where appropriate. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the back of this press release. The preliminary results are unaudited and are based on management’s initial review of DXP’s financial results for the three month period ended June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 financial highlights:

  • Sales increased 16.2 percent sequentially to $285.5 million, compared to $245.6 million for the first quarter of 2021 and increased 13.6 percent compared to $251.4 million for the second quarter of 2020.
  • Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter was $0.40 based upon 20.1 million diluted shares, compared to $0.12 per share in the second quarter of June 30, 2020, based on 18.6 million diluted shares.
  • Net income for the second quarter was $8.1 million, compared to $2.1 million for the prior-year period.
  • Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) for the second quarter of 2021 was $22.6 million compared to $13.9 million for the first quarter of 2021 and $13.8 million for the second quarter of 2020.
  • Cash flow from operations was $7.6 million, compared to $63.4 million for the prior-year period.
  • Free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) for the second quarter of 2021 was $6.8 million, compared to $61.6 million in the second quarter of 2020.

David R. Little, Chairman and CEO commented, “I am pleased that DXP’s performance continues to strengthen as we accelerate into the COVID-19 recovery. Our team continued to improve execution in the second quarter, driving sequential sales growth, and gross margin improvement while maintaining cost discipline. As a result of this performance and the team’s execution, we are confident we will continue to position DXP for long-term profitable growth and a positive outlook for the second half of 2021. DXP’s second quarter 2021 sales were $285.5 million, or a 16.2 percent increase over the first quarter. During the second quarter, sales were $209.5 million for Service Centers, $39.3 million for Supply Chain Services and $36.7 million for Innovative Pumping Solutions. Most of our customers and the markets we serve continue to show improvement. We remain encouraged by the sequential increases despite the continued choppiness associated with COVID-19. Thank you to all our customers and DXPeople for the support and efforts to remain safe and healthy while moving forward."

Kent Yee, CFO, added, “Our second quarter sequential sales growth of 16.2 percent and $6.8 million in free cash flow was great to see. Our financial results reflect our continued focus on our customers and improving market conditions. As of June 30, 2021, we had $79.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. We have completed two acquisitions since the four at year-end, as well as executing share repurchases which were completed towards the end of the quarter. We are well on our way into diversifying DXP’s end markets while creating stakeholder value. We turned DXP’s sales growth into a 64.6 percent sequential increase in EBITDA and $0.28 per share year-over-year improvement in earnings per diluted share. Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2021 was $328.4 million with senior leverage of 3.11:1, well under our covenant of 5.75:1.

“We are excited by our sales team’s focus on organic sales growth as well as the contributions from recent acquisitions. The teamwork as well as the overall tone at DXP is moving in the right direction and we look forward to continuing the momentum into the second half of the year.”

Financial Strength and Liquidity

Net debt, calculated as total long-term debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, was $249.1 million compared to $201.7 million at March 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, DXP has approximately $210.5 million in liquidity, consisting of $79.2 million in cash on hand and approximately $131.3 million in availability under our ABL facility.

DXP will not host a conference call regarding June 30, 2021 second quarter results (see Update on Form 10-Q and Auditor Review).

Update on Form 10-Q Filing and Auditor Review

During the second quarter, the Company determined it had aged un-vouchered purchase orders included in trade accounts payable. After lengthy investigation and research, the Company concluded that these balances were not valid obligations to vendors and will never be invoiced or paid. Some of the balances in this account are more than three years old and are beyond a reasonable expectation that they will be settled and are not considered legal obligations of the Company. The Company preliminarily assessed the materiality of this error in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality”, and the Company believes that, qualitatively, the amounts would have no bearing on the decision-making process of a reasonable investor. The Company applied the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” and assessing the out of period items’ impact using the dual approach, as described in the standard, using both the rollover and iron curtain methods to assess significance and concluded the impact on prior period financial statements was not material. The Company continues to review the impact of these items on prior periods and intends to adjust prior year balances to reflect the immaterial changes. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not completed their review procedures on the adjustment. For the consolidated balance sheets, the Company expects to reduce trade accounts payable by an estimated $8 million - $12 million and increase retained earnings by a corresponding amount less the impacts associated with taxes. In addition, we expect to reduce the cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations and reflect the associated impacts to the provision for income taxes for the comparative periods presented. Additionally, we are in the process of assessing the impact of this issue on our assessment that our internal control over financial reporting is effective.

Once the analysis is finalized and our independent registered public accounting firm has completed their review, the Company intends to revise its consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to June 30, 2021 through subsequent periodic filings.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

DXP supplements reporting of net income with non-GAAP measurements, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, non-GAAP net income and net debt. This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the unaudited GAAP measurements. Additional information regarding EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and non-GAAP net income referred to in this press release are included below under "Unaudited Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information."

The Company believes EBITDA provides additional information about: (i) operating performance, because it assists in comparing the operating performance of the business, as it removes the impact of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense as well as items not directly resulting from core operations such as interest expense and income taxes and (ii) the performance and the effectiveness of operational strategies. Additionally, EBITDA performance is a component of a measure of the Company’s financial covenants under its credit facility. Furthermore, some investors use EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in the industry. Management believes that some investors’ understanding of performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for comparing ongoing results of operations. By providing this non-GAAP financial measure, together with a reconciliation from net income, the Company believes it is enhancing investors’ understanding of the business and results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well the Company is executing strategic initiatives. Free Cash Flow reconciles to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of cash flows from operations as provided below. We believe Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to fund acquisitions, make investments, repay debt obligations, repurchase company shares, and for certain other activities.
