First Quarter Revenue Up 19.5% to $416 Million, with Sequential Margin Expansion
Announced Acquisition of S&S Automotive in Collision Repair Industry
Distribution Solutions Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:DSGR) ("DSG" or the "Company"), a premier specialty distribution company, today announced consolidated results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. This press release is supplemented by an earnings presentation at https://investor.distributionsolutionsgroup.com/news/events.
Bryan King, CEO and Chairman of the Board said, "Our first quarter results were in line with near-term expectations. The Lawson MRO vertical had strong performance while continuing to make investments in its sales organization, the Gexpro Services OEM vertical returned to double-digit margins as expected this quarter, and the TestEquity industrial technology vertical margins stabilized despite continuing headwinds in the Test & Measurement end market on continued high interest rates and inventory balancing that impacted the market. Sales grew 19.5% to $416 million over the year-ago quarter driven by our acquisition strategy and also increased 2.7% sequentially over the fourth quarter of 2023. As anticipated, organic sales remained soft in the quarter, however, our two-year stacked organic revenues increased by 4.7% given tough sales comparisons in the Technology and Renewables (OEM market) and Test & Measurement (Industrial Technology market) verticals. Sequentially, the business improved in many end markets including Technology and continued strength in our Aerospace & Defense and Industrial Power (OEM market) verticals. For the quarter, consolidated adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 8.7% compared to 8.4% in the fourth quarter of 2023.
"As demonstrated in the first quarter, our acquisition strategy contributes to DSG's inorganic growth by expanding our scale, customer base and geographic reach by enhancing our enterprise-wide product offerings. During the first quarter Lawson completed the acquisition of Emergent Safety Supply to help accelerate our expansion into the safety category. We are also excited about Lawson's acquisition of S&S Automotive, with annual revenues of approximately $40 million, which was announced yesterday. S&S significantly extends our product base and expands Lawson's market reach with automotive dealers in addition to its already established strong position with collision repair shops.
"We are actively working our pipeline of acquisition targets, incremental margin enhancement initiatives, and cost savings -- and expect sequential margin improvements as 2024 develops. Our asset-light business model, combined with our focus on growing operating cash flows and accelerating returns on invested capital, positions us well to maximize long-term shareholder value," concluded Mr. King.

2024 First Quarter Summary(1)
- Revenue increased $67.8 million, or 19.5%, to $416.1 million including $99.2 million of incremental revenue from 2023 and 2024 acquisitions. Two-year stacked organic revenue grew by 4.7% despite organic revenue softness in the current quarter being down 8.6% on comparable days. The revenue headwinds were isolated to the technology and renewables end markets and our industrial Test & Measurement business, which are more sensitive to higher interest rates connected to capital spending. Organic revenue grew by 2.1% from the fourth quarter of 2023.
- Operating income was $2.8 million, which included $10.7 million of non-cash acquired intangible amortization and $16.2 million of non-recurring severance and acquisition-related retention costs, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related costs and other non-recurring items as compared to operating income of $16.7 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating income, excluding these non-cash and non-recurring items, was $29.8 million compared to $32.8 million in the year-ago quarter and $28.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
- Diluted loss per share was $0.11 for the quarter compared to diluted income per share of $0.14 in the year-ago quarter based on higher depreciation and amortization expenses and non-recurring severance and acquisition-related retention costs. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.25 compared to $0.42 for the same period a year ago and $0.22 from the fourth quarter of 2023.
- Adjusted EBITDA was $36.1 million or 8.7% compared to $39.4 million in the prior year quarter. Sequentially, adjusted EBITDA grew $2.2 million or 6.5% from the fourth quarter of 2023; and increased as a percent of sales by 30bps from 8.4%.
- The Company ended the first quarter with total liquidity of $283.9 million, consisting of $85.6 million of cash (restricted and unrestricted) and $198.3 million of availability under its credit facility with net debt leverage of 3.0x. Uses of cash in the first quarter included net capital expenditures of $2.9 million.
- Completed the acquisition of Emergent Safety Supply in January 2024 to expand and accelerate our safety product category. Subsequent to quarter end, announced the accretive acquisition of S&S Automotive with annual revenues of approximately $40 million to expand our product offering and automotive market reach.

This release contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve risks and uncertainties. Terms such as "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "contemplates," "continues," "could," "ensure," "estimate," "expect," "forecasts," "if," "intend," "likely," "may," "might," "objective," "outlook," "plan," "positioned," "potential," "predict," "probable," "project," "shall," "should," "strategy," "will," "would," and variations of them and other words and terms of similar meaning and expression (and the negatives of such words and terms) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and involve inherent risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including factors that could delay, divert or change any of them, and could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from current expectations. DSG can give no assurance that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and DSG cautions readers not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. DSG undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Certain risks associated with DSG's business are also discussed from time to time in the reports DSG files with the SEC, including DSG's Annual Report on Form 10-K, DSG's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and DSG's Current Reports on Form 8-K, which should be reviewed carefully. In addition, the following factors, among others, could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: (i) unanticipated difficulties, expenditures or any problems arising in connection with or after the combination of the businesses of Lawson Products, TestEquity and Gexpro Services (the "merger"), which may result in DSG not operating as effectively and efficiently as expected; (ii) the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with the merger or any other acquisition or business combination completed by DSG or any of its subsidiaries results in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; and (iii) the risks that DSG may encounter difficulties integrating the business of DSG with the business of other companies that DSG has acquired or may acquire or has otherwise combined with or may otherwise combine with, that DSG may not achieve the anticipated synergies contemplated with respect to any such business or transactions and that certain assumptions with respect to such business or transactions could prove to be inaccurate.

However, the Company's management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflections of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain non-operational or non-cash items that impact the overall comparability. See Tables below for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 and the three months ended December 31, 2023. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
