As of March 31, 2016, DXP Enterprises, Inc. (“the Company”) was in compliance with all covenants under its credit facility (“the Facility”). The Company is presently seeking an amendment of the Facility for certain covenants, including its Consolidated Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio, and the Asset Coverage Ratio, for certain periods beginning on or after June 30, 2016, the result of which could have a significant impact on our financial position and disclosure. The Company currently anticipates obtaining such amendment on or before August 15, 2016. Therefore, the Company was unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including its financial statements) in a timely manner without unreasonable effort and expense.

Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2016 decreased approximately $67.5 million, or approximately 20.8%, to approximately $256.2 million from $323.7 million for the prior year’s corresponding period. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2016 decreased from $14.0 million in the second quarter of 2015 to $8.8 million for the second quarter of 2016. The decrease is primarily the result of a decline in spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from a decline in the price of oil and gas.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2016 decreased approximately $155.5 million, or 23.4%, to approximately $509.8 from $665.3 for the prior corresponding period. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 decreased approximately $25.2 million, or 78.7%, to $6.8 million from $32.1 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease is primarily the result of a decline in spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from a decline in the price of oil and gas.
