To learn more about DXP Enterprises, Inc., please visit the Company's website at About DXP Enterprises, Inc. DXP Enterprises, Inc. is a leading products and service distributor that adds value and total cost savings solutions to industrial customers throughout North America and Dubai. DXP provides innovative pumping solutions, supply chain services and maintenance, repair, operating and production ("MROP") services that emphasize and utilize DXP's vast product knowledge and technical expertise in rotating equipment, bearings, power transmission, metal working, industrial supplies and safety products and services. DXP's breadth of MROP products and service solutions allows DXP to be flexible and customer-driven, creating competitive advantages for our customers. DXP's business segments include Service Centers, Innovative Pumping Solutions and Supply Chain Services. For more information, go to Non-GAAP Financial Measures DXP supplements reporting of net income with certain non-GAAP measurements, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow. This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the unaudited GAAP measurements. Additional information regarding EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and net debt 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 facilities. 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 to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, 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 shares of the Company's common stock, and for certain other activities.

DXP's (NASDAQ:DXPE) Q1 Earnings Results: Revenue In Line With Expectations

Long-term growth is the most important, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss new industry trends or demand cycles. DXP's annualized revenue growth of 8.5% over the last two years aligns with its five-year trend, suggesting its demand was stable. Reviewing a company's long-term sales performance reveals insights into its quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but the best consistently grow over the long haul. Thankfully, DXP's 8.3% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was decent. Its growth was slightly above the average industrials company and shows its offerings resonate with customers. Founded during the emergence of Big Oil in Texas, DXP (NASDAQ:DXPE) provides pumps, valves, and other industrial components. David R. Little, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, "First quarter results reflect the resilience and durability of DXP's business. We are pleased with our sequential sales growth and strength in our gross profit margins. This resulted in operating leverage that produced earnings per share of $1.25. DXP's first quarter 2025 sales were $476.6 million, or a 15.5 percent increase over the first quarter of 2024. Organic sales for the quarter, increased 11.1 percent and acquisitions added $31.1 million in sales. Adjusted EBITDA grew $12.2 million, or 30.2 percent over the first quarter of 2024. During the first quarter of 2025, sales were $327.1 million for Service Centers, $63.3 million for Supply Chain Services, and $86.2 million for Innovative Pumping Solutions. Overall, we are very pleased with our performance and the progress DXP continues to make as a growth company. We are optimistic that we can show continued sales and profit improvement during the remainder of 2025. " Free Cash Flow was -$16.94 million, down from $24.1 million in the same quarter last year Operating Margin: 8.5%, up from 7.1% in the same quarter last year Is now the time to buy DXP? Find out in our full research report . Industrial distributor DXP Enterprises (NASDAQ:DXPE) met Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, with sales up 15.5% year on year to $476.6 million. Its non-GAAP profit of $1.26 per share was 5% above analysts' consensus estimates. Story Continues DXP Year-On-Year Revenue Growth This quarter, DXP's year-on-year revenue growth was 15.5%, and its $476.6 million of revenue was in line with Wall Street's estimates. Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 7.3% over the next 12 months, similar to its two-year rate. This projection doesn't excite us and implies its products and services will see some demand headwinds. Today's young investors likely haven't read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next. Operating Margin DXP was profitable over the last five years but held back by its large cost base. Its average operating margin of 6.7% was weak for an industrials business. This result isn't too surprising given its low gross margin as a starting point. On the plus side, DXP's operating margin rose by 5.6 percentage points over the last five years, as its sales growth gave it immense operating leverage. DXP Trailing 12-Month Operating Margin (GAAP) This quarter, DXP generated an operating profit margin of 8.5%, up 1.4 percentage points year on year. Since its gross margin expanded more than its operating margin, we can infer that leverage on its cost of sales was the primary driver behind the recently higher efficiency. Earnings Per Share We track the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) for the same reason as long-term revenue growth. Compared to revenue, however, EPS highlights whether a company's growth is profitable. DXP's EPS grew at an astounding 22.2% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, higher than its 8.3% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became more profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded. DXP Trailing 12-Month EPS (Non-GAAP) We can take a deeper look into DXP's earnings to better understand the drivers of its performance. As we mentioned earlier, DXP's operating margin expanded by 5.6 percentage points over the last five years. On top of that, its share count shrank by 10.9%. These are positive signs for shareholders because improving profitability and share buybacks turbocharge EPS growth relative to revenue growth. DXP Diluted Shares Outstanding Like with revenue, we analyze EPS over a shorter period to see if we are missing a change in the business. For DXP, its two-year annual EPS growth of 34.6% was higher than its five-year trend. We love it when earnings growth accelerates, especially when it accelerates off an already high base. In Q1, DXP reported EPS at $1.26, up from $0.74 in the same quarter last year. This print beat analysts' estimates by 5%. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects DXP's full-year EPS of $5.09 to grow 8.3%. Key Takeaways from DXP's Q1 Results It was encouraging to see DXP beat analysts' EPS expectations this quarter. We were also happy its EBITDA narrowly outperformed Wall Street's estimates. Revenue was just in line. Zooming out, we think this was a decent quarter featuring some areas of strength. The market seemed to be hoping for more, and the stock traded down 4.3% to $85 immediately following the results. Is DXP an attractive investment opportunity at the current price? What happened in the latest quarter matters, but not as much as longer-term business quality and valuation, when deciding whether to invest in this stock.

For more information, go to Non-GAAP Financial Measures DXP supplements reporting of net income with certain non-GAAP measurements, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow. This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the unaudited GAAP measurements. Additional information regarding EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and net debt 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 facilities. 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 to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, 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 shares of the Company's common stock, and for certain other activities.
