The Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement provides DXP with continued operational and financial flexibility to reinvest in the business, pursue its organic and acquisition growth strategy, and positions the Company to optimize its cost of capital as it continues to evolve from a capital structure standpoint.

Article content

David R. Little, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer remarked, “We are pleased with our new ABL. We will take this positive momentum, push to close out the year strong during the second half of 2026 and look to drive further growth in 2027. Our capital allocation strategy includes a mix of continuing to fund growth; applying excess cash flow to debt service, when appropriate; reinvesting in the business through our facilities, equipment, and software; and supporting DXP in the market. We plan to maintain liquidity and flexibility while pursuing growth opportunities and reinvesting in the business and positioning ourselves to lower our cost of capital as we move forward.”

Kent Yee, Chief Financial Officer added, “As David mentioned, we are pleased with our new ABL, increasing our borrowing capacity by $40 million. This accomplished several objectives, including maintaining liquidity and flexibility as we continue to grow both organically and through acquisitions while strategically reinvesting in the business. Additionally, this new facility will put us in a position in the future to lower our cost of capital as we continue to produce free cash flow while the DXP continues its growth trajectory. DXP continues to diversify and transform the business as evidenced by sales growing from $1.1 billion in 2021 to $2.1 billion for the last twelve months ending March 31, 2026, and net income growing from $16.4 million in 2021 to $88.1 million for the last twelve months ending March 31, 2026. Also, covenant compliance adjusted EBITDA grew from $74.9 million in 2021 to over $243.9 million through the last twelve months ending March 31, 2026. We appreciate the support from our advisors and lender group.”
