The following are results for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the back of this press release.

•Expanded ABL facility from $85 million to $135 million with no changes in pricing or terms.
David R. Little, Chairman and CEO commented, "These are unprecedented times and I want to thank each of our DXPeople for their efforts and commitment. DXP appreciates the help of all medical professionals and first responders in our various communities. Also, DXP appreciates the support of our DXP suppliers as we navigate our new normal together. As an ‘essential business’, we felt responsible to provide excellent service to our customers (who themselves were deemed as 'essential'). By providing products and services, we were assisting them in keeping the economy functioning during these difficult times. In terms of our priorities at DXP, our first priority was the health and safety of our DXPeople and supporting national efforts to stop the spread of the Coronavirus. We took immediate steps in the U.S.A, Canada and Dubai at our facilities by working in small teams and or through work rotations. We did this so that if we needed to quarantine one team, we could still continue to serve our customers. Additionally, we had our facilities deploy social distancing in the workplace, frequent hand washing and sanitizing, temperature testing, quarantines, and remote work habits in the situations and circumstances where we could. We strongly encouraged our employees to not just maintain some of these protocols at work but also while at home or outside of the workplace. Out of DXP’s 2,700 plus DXPeople, I am proud that we have had only two confirmed cases of coronavirus thus far. Our second priority has been to continue to provide exceptional service and support to our customers, as we support various industries that keep the wheels of the North America economy going. We are thankful that we had the opportunity to support and serve our customers and make a difference. During these times, DXPeople have done some amazing things for our customers to keep them safe and running as an ‘essential business’. The letters and emails that we have received showing appreciation and regards for our support, have been truly heart-warming. Our third priority has been to manage our balance sheet on expected lower near-term demand to remain strong and posed for an eventual recovery. I am very proud of how our DXP team has managed and balanced these priorities in what is an unprecedented and unique environment."
Mr. Little continued, "We executed well in this challenging environment. During the first quarter, we achieved $301.0 million in sales, including $5.2 million from acquisitions. Our improvement in diluted earnings per share from the fourth quarter speaks to our team’s execution and focus on continuous improvement. In terms of our business segments for the first quarter, sales were $182.6 million for Service Centers, $70.0 million for Innovative Pumping Solutions and $48.4 million for Supply Chain Services. We delivered on our financial results as the market adjusted to various shelter-in-place orders. DXP has a model that is characterized by high levels of MRO spend, low fixed costs, low capital expenditure requirements, and high levels of operating cash flow when the business cycles. For these reasons, and many others, we are highly confident in our ability to successfully navigate the situation. We believe our strong balance sheet and financial liquidity will allow us to continue making strategic investments in our business, where appropriate. Similar to the 2008, 2015 and 2016 business downturns, we believe our experienced management team positions us to best take advantage of a return to more normal business conditions in the future."

Kent Yee, CFO commented, “The first quarter of 2020 financial results were great to see. Creating a safe haven while continuing to work has been our goal from the beginning, especially once deemed an ‘essential business'. As we adjusted to the impact of the Coronavirus, from a business standpoint, we quickly transitioned to focusing on maintaining the strength in our balance sheet by ensuring debt capacity and liquidity, driving efficiencies throughout the business, and ensuring our cash flow profile would perform in today’s environment. In March, we expanded our asset based loan facility to $135 million with no change to pricing or terms. At March 31st, we were undrawn and had $131.6 million in capacity. The ABL matures in August 2022 and our term loan matures in August 2023, therefore, we have no near term maturities. As of March 31, 2020, we had $32.9 million in cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. Our senior leverage was 2.2:1 with a covenant at the end of Q1 of 4.75:1."
Mr. Yee added, "DXP is well-positioned to support its customers, employees and suppliers. We will continue to take the steps to manage our business by tightening our expenses and capital spending and actively managing our balance sheet. We believe that we have ample flexibility to navigate through the uncertain times ahead. As a leading distributor to essential industries, DXP remains well positioned to support our customers, suppliers and communities during this extraordinary time, while continuing to build our capabilities and keeping our eyes on the future.”
Balance Sheet, Liquidity, Cash Flow and Financial Flexibility
Net debt, calculated as long-term debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, on our balance sheet as of March 31, 2020, was $211.0 million compared to $217.3 million at March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, DXP has approximately $164.3 million in liquidity, consisting of $32.7 million in cash on hand and approximately $131.6 million in availability under our ABL facility. While we expect demand to trough in the second quarter, our flexible balance sheet, liquidity, and cash flow generation (that begins to pick up from Q2 through Q4), gives us tremendous confidence to successfully manage the impact of fluctuating and lower demand as a result of the various shelter-in-place orders and local decisions on when and how to open local economies.
Response to the Coronavirus Pandemic
Although the impact of COVID-19 on our Q1 results was limited, it progressively worsened toward quarter end as shelter in place orders took hold in the United States and Canada. In anticipation of the economic downturn and softer demand, we took decisive actions to align our cost structure with the current environment and protect our balance sheet.
The Company’s actions included:
•Emphasizing and implementing good hygiene protocol at all facilities
•Implementing a temporary hiring freeze, travel restrictions and wage freeze
•Expanding our $85 million ABL facility to $135 million
•Internal focus on cash management and monitoring likely areas of exposure
We will host a conference call regarding March 31, 2020 first quarter results on the Company’s website (www.dxpe.com) Friday, May 8, 2020 at 10 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 on-line 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 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 and free cash flow 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.
