Represents Lawson Products pre-merger revenue and operating income

Bryan King, CEO and Chairman of the Board, said, “We are pleased with fourth quarter results that exceeded expectations. Our continued topline growth and sequential improvement in margins further supports our strategic decision to combine Lawson Products, Gexpro Services and TestEquity. While macroeconomic uncertainties remain, we are laser-focused on driving greater returns on cash flow through a combination of organic growth, strategic acquisitions and operational efficiencies. We believe that our disciplined approach to capital allocation through our asset light model coupled with our strengthening balance sheet positions us to further generate meaningful returns and cash flow in 2023.

“Fourth quarter revenue grew to nearly $329 million, consisting of organic growth of 16.7% as well as revenue from acquisitions. Fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA grew $16.3 million over a year ago to $34.0 million or 10.3% of adjusted revenue, with an expansion in margins over the third quarter on fewer selling days. On a full year basis, we realized strong comparable adjusted revenue growth of over 35% and adjusted margin expansion in terms of dollars and percentage. I want to congratulate our leadership teams for successfully completing five acquisitions in 2022, as well as realizing sequential margin expansion as the year developed," concluded Mr. King.

Fourth Quarter Highlights (1)

  • GAAP revenue was $328.9 million, an increase of $199.6 million or 154.5%, which included $60.2 million of additional revenue from companies acquired in 2021 and 2022 other than Lawson Products.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted revenue, which in the fourth quarter of 2021 includes the pre-merger revenue of Lawson Products, increased approximately $97.6 million or 42.2% to $328.9 million. This improvement was driven by organic growth of 16.7% and revenue from companies acquired in 2021 and 2022 (other than Lawson Products).
  • Reported operating income increased by $14.4 million from the prior year period to $12.7 million or 3.8% of GAAP revenue.
  • Diluted loss per share was $0.10 for the quarter compared to a diluted loss per share of $0.47 in the year ago quarter. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.25 in the fourth quarter 2022 compared to $0.15 for the same period a year ago.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased by $16.3 million from the prior year period to $34.0 million or 10.3% of non-GAAP adjusted revenue.
  • In November, the Board authorized an increase of the existing share buy-back program from $7.5 million to $12.5 million. During 2022, the Company repurchased approximately 54,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate price of $1.9 million on top of $3.0 million previously repurchased which leaves $7.6 million available under its expanded authorized share repurchase plan.

(1) See reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures in tables 2 and 4.

Full Year Highlights (2)

  • GAAP revenue was $1.15 billion, an increase of $631.1 million or 121.3%. The increase was driven by the inclusion of Lawson Products revenue of $324.8 million following the April 1, 2022 merger closing date and $203.6 million of additional revenue from companies acquired in 2021 and 2022 (other than Lawson Products).
  • Non-GAAP adjusted revenue was $1.27 billion, which in 2022 and 2021 includes the pre-merger revenue of Lawson Products, increased approximately $331.3 million or 35.3%. This improvement was driven by organic growth of 13.8% and revenue from companies acquired in 2021 and 2022 (other than Lawson Products).
  • Reported operating income increased by $30.4 million from the prior year period to $41.8 million or 3.6% of GAAP revenue.
  • Diluted earnings per share was $0.42 for the year compared to a loss per diluted share of $0.49 in the year ago period.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased by $47.8 million from the prior year period to $123.0 million or 9.7% of non-GAAP adjusted revenue.
  • The Company ended the year with $24.6 million of cash on hand and $77.0 million of availability under its credit facility with net debt leverage of 3.1x. Net capital expenditures were $11.3 million during 2022.

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.

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) whether or not the terms of the earnout provisions in either of the merger agreements will be satisfied such that DSG would be required to issue additional shares of common stock in connection with the mergers; (ii) unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to the mergers; (iii) the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with the mergers results in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; and (iv) any problems arising in combining the businesses of Lawson Products, TestEquity and Gexpro Services, which may result in the combined company not operating as effectively and efficiently as expected.

DISTRIBUTION SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC.

SEC REGULATION G GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

 

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 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 reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that includes for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 certain results of pre-merger Lawson Products and excludes for all periods certain non-operational 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 December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. 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.
