DXP Enterprises Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

  • $127.5 million in cash and cash equivalents
  • $245.6 million in sales
  • GAAP diluted EPS of $0.02, including significant tax reserves due to proposed state tax positions ($0.06 per share)
  • Free cash flow for the quarter of $11.2 million

DXP Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXPE) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021. The following are results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, where appropriate. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the back of this press release.

First Quarter 2021 financial highlights:

  • Sales increased 5.6 percent sequentially to $245.6 million, compared to $232.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and decreased 18.4% compared to $301.0 million for the first quarter of 2020.
  • Earnings per diluted share for the first quarter was $0.02 based upon 20.0 million diluted shares, compared to $0.31 per share in the first quarter of March 31, 2020, based on 18.6 million diluted shares.
  • Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) for the first quarter of 2021 was $13.9 million compared to $13.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $18.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.

Post-Quarter highlights:

  • Closed acquisition of Carter & Verplanck
  • Furthers efforts to diversify DXP end markets and create national water and wastewater platform

David R. Little, Chairman and CEO commented, “Our first quarter results reflect sequential sales growth driven by acquisitions, strong free cash flow and continued efforts to match costs to the demand of our business. We are encouraged by the sequential increases. As we look ahead to the rest of 2021, we remain optimistic that the global and U.S. economy will recover from the impact of the pandemic, in particularly, oil demand and capital projects spending which typically lags most cycles. Thank you to all our customers, vendors and DXPeople for the support and efforts in keeping safety at the forefront. DXP’s first quarter 2021 sales were $245.6 million, or a 5.6 percent increase over the fourth quarter. DXP’s industrial end markets, which is 67 percent of our business (including the recent acquisitions), appears to have found some legs and shows signs of positive upward movement. During the first quarter, sales were $186.4 million for Service Centers, $36.0 million for Supply Chain Services and $23.2 million for Innovative Pumping Solutions.

We continue to anticipate a better fiscal year 2021. As such, we remain focused on improving our ability to serve existing and new customers, continuing to focus on enhancing and improving our operational execution, investing in products and people and strategically aligning DXP for the future.”

Kent Yee, CFO commented, “Our first quarter sequential increase of 5.6 percent was great to see in addition to the $11.2 million of free cash flow. We see bright spots as the world attempts to recover from the global pandemic and vaccination efforts increase. As of March 31, 2021, we had $127.5 million in cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. Our senior leverage was 2.82:1, well under our covenant of 5.75:1. We continue to execute our acquisition strategy and diversify our end market exposure. We are excited by the tone at DXP and anticipate that this should continue to show in our financial results. We anticipate the second half of the year to be stronger than the first half as momentum builds.”

Financial Strength and Liquidity

Net debt, calculated as total long-term debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, on our balance sheet as of March 31, 2021, was down to $201.7 million compared to $212.6 million at December 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2021, DXP has approximately $258.6 million in liquidity, consisting of $127.4 million in cash on hand and approximately $131.2 million in availability under our ABL facility.

We will host a conference call regarding March 31, 2021 first quarter results on the Company’s website (www.dxpe.com) Friday, May 7, 2021 at 10:30 am CST. Web participants are encouraged to go to the Company’s website at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the call to register, download and install any necessary audio software. The online archived replay will be available immediately after the conference call at www.dxpe.com.

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, 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.
