Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DXP Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, of equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management has excluded seven entities from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2024. We have also excluded these seven entities from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. These entities, each of which is wholly-owned, comprised, in the aggregate, total assets and total sales excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting of approximately 4% and 5%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Revenue Recognized Over Time - Estimated Costs to Complete Open Contracts
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, revenue recognized under the percentage-of-completion method was $293.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. As disclosed by management, the Company has contracts to assemble, fabricate and or deliver tangible assets to customer specifications that can range from three to eighteen months or more. The Company accounts for these contracts under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Under this method, the Company recognizes sales and profit based upon the cost-to-cost method, in which sales and profit are recorded based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs to complete the asset. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires management to estimate the project costs at completion. Revenues are estimated based upon the original contract price and change orders. Contract costs may be incurred over a period of several months, and the estimation of these costs requires judgment based upon the acquired knowledge and experience of program managers, engineers, and finance professionals. Estimated costs are based primarily on purchase contract terms and assumptions relating to items such as cost of materials, labor productivity and cost, and overhead.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the estimated costs to complete open contracts associated with revenue recognized over time is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimated costs to complete open contracts and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumption related to estimated costs of materials. As previously disclosed by management, a material weakness existed during the year related to this matter.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process, including controls over the estimated costs to complete open contracts. These procedures also included, among others, for a sample of open contracts (i) testing management’s process for developing the estimated costs to complete the open contracts as of year end and (ii) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumption used by management related to estimated costs of materials. Evaluating management’s assumption related to estimated costs of materials involved (i) obtaining and inspecting executed purchase orders and agreements; (ii) considering customer specifications and associated vendor quotes; and (iii) performing a comparison of the originally estimated and actual costs of materials incurred on similar completed contracts.

DXP ENTERPRISES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY
DXP Enterprises, Inc. together with its subsidiaries (collectively “DXP,” “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in Texas on July 26, 1996. The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the business of distributing maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, and service to customers serving a variety of end markets. Additionally, the Company provides integrated, custom pump skid packages, pump remanufacturing and manufactures branded private label pumps to energy and industrial customers. The Company is organized into three business segments: Service Centers (“SC”), Innovative Pumping Solutions (“IPS”), and Supply Chain Services (“SCS”). See Note 20 - Segment Reporting for discussion of the business segments.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year’s consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not have a material effect on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, balance sheets, cash flows or equity.
The Company was the primary beneficiary of a VIE in which it owned 47.5 % of the VIE's equity. The Company consolidated the VIE within its financial statements. In November 2022, the Company sold its interest in the VIE and ceased the consolidation of the VIE within the Company's financial statements. The losses associated with the VIE that occurred prior to the deconsolidation are included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. These losses were $ 0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Business Combinations
We allocate the total purchase price of a business combination to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. For material acquisitions, we engage third-party valuation specialists to assist us in determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including goodwill, based on recognized business valuation methodologies. If the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the acquisition occurs, an estimate will be recorded. Subsequent to the acquisition, and not later than one year from the acquisition date, we will record any material adjustments to the initial estimate in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, as applicable. Generally, we use an income valuation method to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed in a business combination. However, a market or cost valuation method may be utilized.
We expense acquisition-related costs as incurred in connection with each business combination.
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries are measured using local currencies as their functional currencies. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates, while income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates. Translation gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses on transactions denominated in foreign currency are reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
53
Table of Contents
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The Company places its cash with institutions with high credit quality. However, at certain times, such cash may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company has not historically experienced any losses when in excess of these limits.
Receivables and Credit Risk
Trade receivables consist primarily of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, which usually require payment within 30 days of the invoice date. However, these payment terms are extended in select cases and customers may not pay within stated trade terms.
The Company has trade receivables from a diversified customer base located primarily in the Rocky Mountain, Northeastern, Midwestern, Southeastern and Southwestern regions of the U.S. and Canada. The Company believes no significant concentration of credit risk exists. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers' financial positions and monitors accounts on a regular basis. Provisions to the allowance for doubtful accounts are made monthly and adjustments are made periodically based upon management’s best estimate of the collectability of such accounts under the current expected credit losses model. The Company writes-off uncollectible trade accounts receivable when the accounts are determined to be uncollectible. No customer represents more than 10% of consolidated sales.

Inventories
Inventories are made up of equipment purchased for resale, and materials utilized in the fabrication of industrial and wastewater equipment stated at lower of cost and net realizable value, primarily determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company regularly reviews inventory and records provisions for the difference between cost and net realizable value arising from excess and obsolete items on hand based upon the aging of the inventories, market trends, and continued demand.
The carrying values of inventories are as follows ( in thousands ):

Finished goods $ 89,780 $ 94,031
Work in process 13,333 9,774
Inventories $ 103,113 $ 103,805
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded on a historical cost basis. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs of depreciable assets are charged against earnings as incurred. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and gains or losses are credited or charged to earnings.
54
Table of Contents
The principal estimated useful lives used in determining depreciation are as follows:
Buildings 20 - 39 years
Building improvements 10 - 20 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 - 20 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of estimated useful life or related lease term
Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on October 1st and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company assigns the carrying value of these intangible assets to its reporting units and applies the test for goodwill at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below a segment (a “component”) if the component is a business and discrete information is prepared and reviewed regularly by segment management.
The Company’s goodwill impairment assessment first permits evaluating qualitative factors to determine if a reporting unit's carrying value would more likely than not exceed its fair value. If the Company concludes, based on the qualitative assessment, that a reporting unit's carrying value would more likely than not exceed its fair value, the Company would perform a quantitative test for that reporting unit. Should the reporting unit's carrying amount exceed the fair value, then an impairment charge for the excess would be recognized. The impairment charge is limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit and goodwill will not be reduced below zero. The Company performed qualitative tests and determined no impairment of goodwill was required for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Excluding Goodwill
The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. No impairment of long-lived assets was required for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Revenue Recognition
The Company primarily provides purchased products distributed through its branch of local Service Centers and provides services through its local branch network and recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of the product or service performed transfers to the customer, typically upon shipment or completion from a DXP facility or directly from a supplier. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for the products and services provided, net of allowances for product returns, and any taxes collected from customers that will be remitted to governmental authorities. The Service Centers segment primarily provides a wide range of maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, equipment and integrated services, including logistics capabilities, to industrial customers. The Supply Chain Services segment also provides a wide range of MRO products as well as manages all or part of various customers' supply chain, including warehouse and inventory management services. Revenue is recognized upon the completion of our performance obligation(s) under the sales agreement. The majority of the Service Centers and Supply Chain Services segment revenues originate from the satisfaction of a single performance obligation--the delivery of products. Revenues are recognized when an agreement is in place, the performance obligations under the contract have been satisfied, and the price or consideration to be received is fixed and allocated to the performance obligation(s) in the contract. We believe our performance obligation has been satisfied when title passes to the customer or services have been rendered under the contract. Revenues are recorded net of sales taxes. The Company reserves for potential customer returns based upon historical levels.

The Company also assembles, kits, and fabricates custom-made pump packages, remanufactures pumps, and manufactures branded private label pumps substantially within our Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. For binding agreements to assemble, fabricate and direct tangible assets to customer specifications, the Company recognizes revenues over time when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits of the work performed. This occurs when the products have no alternative use for us and we have a right to payment for the work completed to date plus a reasonable profit margin. Contracts include cancellation provisions that require the customer to reimburse us for costs incurred through the date of cancellation. We recognize revenue for these contracts using the percentage of completion method, an “input method” as defined by ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Under this method, we recognize sales and profit based upon the cost-to-cost method, in which sales and profit are recorded based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs to complete the asset. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires the Company to estimate the project costs at completion. Revenues are estimated based upon the original contract price and change orders. Contract costs may be incurred over a period of several months, and the estimation of these costs requires judgment based upon the acquired knowledge and experience of program managers, engineers, and finance professionals. Estimated costs are based primarily on purchase contract terms and estimated cost of materials, labor productivity and cost, and overhead. Percentage of completion revenues were $ 293.3 million, $ 311.0 million, and $ 213.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company classifies shipping and handling charges billed to customers as sales. Shipping and handling charges paid to others are classified as a component of cost of sales.
Cost of Sales and Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Cost of sales includes product and product related costs, inbound freight charges, internal transfer costs, and depreciation. Selling, general and administrative expense includes purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, depreciation, and amortization.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized under a more likely than not criterion.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
A position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not (i.e. a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local tax examination by tax authorities for years prior to 2015. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken and to be taken on its tax returns and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income includes net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company’s other comprehensive income is from translating foreign subsidiaries to the reporting currency.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
All new accounting pronouncements that have been issued but not yet effective are currently being evaluated and at this time are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. This ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses along with the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Authoritative guidance for financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis applies to all financial assets and financial liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. Fair value, as defined in the authoritative guidance, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The authoritative guidance affects the fair value measurement of an investment with quoted market prices in an active market for identical instruments, which must be classified in one of the following categories:
Level 1 Inputs
Level 1 inputs come from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs
Level 2 inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable for an asset or liability. These inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 Inputs
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability which require the Company's own assumptions. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
Our acquisitions may include contingent consideration as part of the purchase price. The fair value of the contingent consideration is estimated as of the acquisition date based on the present value of the contingent payments to be made using a weighted probability of possible payments. The unobservable inputs used in the determination of the fair value of the contingent consideration include management's assumptions about the likelihood of payment based on the established benchmarks and discount rates based on an internal rate of return analysis. The fair value measurement includes inputs that are Level 3 inputs as discussed above, as they are not observable in the market. Should actual results increase or decrease as compared to the assumptions used in our analysis, the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations will increase or decrease, up to the contracted limit, as applicable. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are measured during each reporting period and reflected in our results of operations.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded $ 16.3 million in other current and other long-term liabilities for contingent consideration. See further discussion at Note 16 - Business Acquisitions .

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities designated as Level 3 are as follows:
Fair Value at December 31, 2024 Valuation Technique Significant Unobservable Inputs
$ 16,322 Discounted cash flow Annualized EBITDA and probability of achievement
Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs
The significant Level 3 unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration related to the acquisitions are annualized EBITDA forecasts developed by the Company's management and the probability of achievement of those EBITDA results. The discount rate used in the calculation was 9.8 %. A decrease in discount rates would increase the contingent consideration liability, whereas an increase or decrease in EBITDA forecasts would increase or decrease the contingent liability. Changes in our unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a change to our fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2024, the maximum amount of contingent consideration payable under these arrangements is $ 18.7 million over three years .
Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, but which require disclosure of their fair values include: cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of such instruments at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 approximates their carrying value as reported on the consolidated balance sheets due to the relative short maturity of these instruments.

NOTE 6 – CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Under our customized pump production contracts, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units, or completion of a contract. Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets presented as “Cost and estimated profits in excess of billings” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, we sometimes receive advances or deposits from our customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities that are presented as “Billings in excess of costs and estimated profits” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Senior Secured Term Loan B:
On October 3, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment on its existing Senior Secured Term Loan B (the “Term Loan Amendment”), which provides for, among other things, an additional $ 105.0 million in new incremental commitments. The Term Loan Amendment refinanced the existing Senior Term Loan B and replaced it with an Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B with total borrowings of $ 649.5 million. The Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B amortizes in equal quarterly installments of 0.25 %, with the remaining balance being payable on October 13, 2030, when the facility matures.
As of December 31, 2024 there was $ 647.9 million outstanding under the Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B.
Interest rate
Quarterly interest payments accrue on outstanding borrowings under the Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B at a rate equal to Term SOFR (with a floor of 1.00 %) plus 3.75 %, or base rate plus 2.75 %. The Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B is guaranteed by each of the Company’s direct and indirect material wholly owned subsidiaries, other than any of the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries and certain other excluded subsidiaries.
The interest rate for the Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B was 8.32 % as of December 31, 2024. The interest rate for the Senior Secured Term Loan B was 10.44 % as of December 31, 2023
Facility Size Increases
The Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B allows for incremental increases in facility size up to an aggregate of $ 100 million.
Prepayments
We are required to repay the Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B with the proceeds from certain asset sales, certain debt issuances, and certain insurance proceeds. In addition, on an annual basis, we are required to repay an amount equal to 50 % of excess cash flow, as defined in the Amended Senior Secured Term Loan B, reducing to 25 % if our Total Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00. No payment of excess cash flow is required if the Total Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00.
In connection with the Term Loan Amendment the Company expensed third-party fees of $ 1.1 million and recognized a $ 0.5 million loss on debt extinguishment, which were included in Interest expense during 2024. Deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan Amendment were $ 2.3 million which were amortized to interest expense using the interest method during 2024.

Table of Contents
Restrictive Covenants
The Company’s primary financial covenant under the Term Loan B is a Secured Leverage Ratio, The Term Loan B Agreement requires that the Company’s Secured Leverage Ratio, defined as the ratio, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of consolidated secured debt (net of unrestricted cash, not to exceed $ 200 million) as of such day to EBITDA, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024, is either equal to or less than as indicated in the table below:

June 30, 2027 and thereafter
4.75 :1.00
As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s Secured Leverage Ratio was 2.43 to 1.00.
The Term Loan contains restrictive covenants (in each case, subject to exclusions) that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to:
• make investments, including acquisitions;
• prepay certain indebtedness;
• grant liens;
• incur additional indebtedness;
• sell assets;
• make fundamental changes to our business;
• enter into transactions with affiliates; and
• pay dividends.
The Term Loan also contains other customary restrictive covenants. The covenants are subject to various baskets and materiality thresholds, with certain of the baskets permitted by the restrictions on the repayment of subordinated indebtedness, restricted payments and investments being available only when the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio of the Company is below certain levels.
EBITDA as defined under the Term Loan B Agreement for financial covenant purposes means, without duplication, for any period of determination, the sum of, consolidated net income during such period; plus to the extent deducted from consolidated net income in such period: (i) income tax expense, (ii) franchise tax expense, (iii) interest expense, (iv) amortization and depreciation during such period, (v) all non-cash charges and adjustments, and (vi) non-recurring cash expenses related to the Term Loan, provided , that if the Company acquires or disposes of any property during such period (other than under certain exceptions specified in the Term Loan B Agreement, including the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business, then EBITDA shall be calculated, after giving pro forma effect to such acquisition or disposition, as if such acquisition or disposition had occurred on the first day of such period.

ABL Revolver:
On July 19, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) that provided for a $ 135.0 million asset-backed revolving line of credit (the “ABL Revolver”). Subject to the conditions set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement, the ABL Revolver may be increased in increments of $ 10.0 million up to an aggregate of $ 50.0 million. The ABL Revolver matures on July 19, 2027. Interest accrues on outstanding borrowings at a rate equal to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) plus a margin ranging from 1.25 % to 1.75 % per annum, or at an alternate base rate, Canadian prime rate or Canadian base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25 % to 0.75 % per annum, in each case, based upon the average daily excess availability under the ABL Revolver for the most recently completed calendar quarter. Fees payable on the unused portion of the facility range from 0.25 % to 0.375 % per annum. At December 31, 2024 the unused line fee was 0.375 % and there were no amounts outstanding under the ABL Revolver.
Guarantees
Each of our current and future wholly owned material U.S. subsidiaries and DXP Enterprises, Inc. guarantees the obligations of our borrower under the ABL Revolver. Additionally, each of our Canadian subsidiaries guarantees the obligations of our Canadian borrower subsidiaries under the ABL Revolver.
Security
Obligations under the U.S. Borrowing Base are primarily secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first-priority secure interest in the accounts receivable, inventory and related assets of our wholly owned, material U.S. subsidiaries. The security interest in accounts receivable, inventory, and related assets of the U.S. borrower subsidiaries ranks prior to the security interest in this collateral which secures the Term Loan B. The obligations under the Canadian Borrowing Base are primarily secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first-priority secure interest in the accounts receivable, inventory and related assets of our wholly owned, material Canadian subsidiaries and our wholly owned material U.S. subsidiaries.

Facility Size Increases
The ABL Credit Agreement allows for incremental increases in facility size up to an aggregate of $ 50 million.
Excess Availability
As of December 31, 2024, the borrowing availability under our credit facility was $ 125.6 million compared to $ 132.1 million at December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of outstanding letters of credit.
Financial Covenant
The Company's principal financial covenant under the ABL Credit Agreement include a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under the ABL Credit Agreement is defined as the ratio for the most recently completed four-fiscal quarter period, of (a) EBITDA minus capital expenditures (excluding those financed or funded with debt (other than the ABL Loans), (ii) the portion thereof funded with the net proceeds from asset dispositions of equipment or real property which the Company is permitted to reinvest pursuant to the Term Loan and the portion thereof funded with the net proceeds of casualty insurance or condemnation awards in respect of any equipment and real estate which DXP is not required to use to prepay the ABL Loans pursuant to the Term Loan B Agreement or with the proceeds of casualty insurance or condemnation awards in respect of any other property) minus cash taxes paid (net of cash tax refunds received during such period), to (b) fixed charges. The Company is restricted from allowing its fixed charge coverage ratio be less than 1.00 to 1.00 during a compliance period, which is triggered when the availability under the ABL Revolver falls below a threshold set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio was 1.70 to 1.00.

The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in the future and in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. If the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize the deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2024, the valuation allowance primarily relates to state operating loss and foreign capital loss carryforwards.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had recorded a total tax benefit of $ 35.6 million related to federal and state research and development tax credits. This benefit is partially offset by $ 8.5 million uncertain tax position due to the uncertainty related to the realizability of the federal research and development tax credits. The Company is also recording a $ 0.2 million uncertain tax position related to non-deductible auto expense compensation. The total amount of these unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.
To the extent penalties and interest would be assessed on any underpayment of income tax, such accrued amounts are classified as a component of income tax provision (benefit) in the consolidated financial statements consistent with the Company's policy. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $ 0.1 million tax expense for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., various states, and foreign jurisdictions. The Company has significant operations in the U.S. and Canada and to a lesser extent in various other international jurisdictions. Tax years that remain subject to examination vary by legal entity but are generally closed in the U.S. for the tax years prior to 2015 and outside the U.S. for the tax years ended prior to 2019. There is a 4 year statute of limitations for Canadian returns based on the date tax assessment is received, not filing date. Tax assessments are typically received within weeks of filing date.

NOTE 11 - SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan
On June 16, 2023, our shareholders approved an amendment to the DXP Enterprises, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) to increase the number of shares that can be issued under the 2016 Plan from 1,000,000 shares to a total of 1,250,000 shares, which represents an increase of 250,000 shares (the “Amendment”), which authorized grants of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance awards, options, investment rights, and cash-based awards.
Restricted Stock Awards
The Company grants restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to employees and non-employee directors. RSAs qualify as participating securities as each award contains non-forfeitable rights to dividends. RSAs are considered outstanding at the date of grant. Refer to Note. 12 Earnings Per Share for further detail.
RSAs are subject to vesting periods between one to ten years . Compensation expense for RSAs is calculated based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant and recognized over the requisite vesting period on a straight-line basis. Unvested RSAs may be forfeited if employees or non-employee directors cease employment or services during the requisite vesting period. Forfeitures reduce expense at the time employment or service cease at the original grant date value. The Company issues new shares of common stock, if available, to settle vested RSAs. At December 31, 2024, 370,962 shares were available for grant.

NOTE 16 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions that either strategically fit with the Company’s existing portfolio or expand the Company’s portfolio into new and attractive markets. The Company has completed a number of acquisitions and the purchases of the acquired businesses have resulted in the recognition of goodwill and other intangible assets in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company makes an initial allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its estimate of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company obtains the information used for the purchase price allocation during due diligence and through other sources. The Company will reflect measurement period adjustments, if any, in the period in which the adjustments are recognized. Final determination of the fair values may result in further adjustments.
The fair values of acquired intangibles are determined based on estimates and assumptions that are deemed reasonable by the Company. The Company from time-to-time engages third-party valuation specialists who review the Company’s critical assumptions and calculations of the fair value of acquired intangible assets in connection with significant acquisitions. Only facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company is continuing to evaluate certain pre-acquisition contingencies associated with certain of its 2024 acquisitions. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.
Each acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations”.
2024 Acquisitions
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company acquired three businesses for a total of $ 46.8 million. We acquired these three businesses to expand our water & wastewater end-market, enhance our aftermarket and service capabilities, as well as expand into new geographic territories.
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company acquired a pump and rotating equipment distribution company for $ 81.5 million. We acquired this business as part of our growth strategy and to maintain our leading position as the largest distributor of rotating equipment in North America.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company acquired a rotating equipment distribution company for $ 36.8 million. We acquired this business to expand our water & wastewater end-market.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company acquired two businesses for a total of $ 9.8 million. We acquired these two businesses to expand our water & wastewater end-market and our product categories.
The results for the seven businesses acquired during the year have been included in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on the respective dates of acquisition.

Purchase Price Allocation and Consideration
In aggregate, the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred for the seven businesses acquired in 2024 totaled $ 174.9 million. The seven acquisitions contributed $ 91.3 million in Sales and $ 19.1 million in Net income attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Goodwill $ 28,611 $ 56,305 $ 20,694 $ 4,122 $ 109,732
The total cash and cash equivalents acquired for these seven acquisitions was $ 5.5 million. Transaction-related costs included within selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations was $ 1.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.
The goodwill total of approximately $ 109.7 million is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of each entity of which $ 22.6 million is deductible for tax purposes and $ 87.1 million is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill assigned to our SC and IPS segments as a result of these transactions was $ 66.2 million and $ 43.5 million, respectively.
Of the $ 41.6 million of acquired intangible assets, $ 2.3 million was provisionally assigned to non-compete agreements that are subject to amortization over 5 years and $ 3.7 million was assigned to trade names and will be amortized over a period of 10 years. In addition, $ 35.6 million was assigned to customer relationships and will be amortized over a period of 8 years.
Contingent Consideration
The acquisitions included contingent consideration arrangements that requires additional consideration to be paid based on the achievement of annual EBITDA targets over a one to three year period. The range of undiscounted amounts the Company may be required to pay under the contingent consideration agreement is between zero and $ 14.2 million. The combined fair value of the contingent consideration recognized on each acquisition date of $ 11.9 million was estimated by using a weighted probability of possible payments. That measure is based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market. The significant assumption includes a discount rate of 9.8 %. Changes in the fair value measurement each period reflect the passage of time as well as the impact of adjustments, if any, to the likelihood of achieving the specified targets. The changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are measured during each reporting period and reflected in our results of operations. The fair value measurement includes earnings forecasts which are a Level 3 measurement as discussed in Note 5 - Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities . The fair value of the contingent consideration is reviewed quarterly over the earn-out period to compare actual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) achieved to the estimated EBITDA used in our forecasts.

NOTE 20 – SEGMENT REPORTING
We have three reportable and operating segments: Service Centers, Innovative Pumping Solutions and Supply Chain Services.
The Service Centers segment is engaged in providing maintenance, MRO products and equipment, including logistics capabilities, to industrial customers. The Service Centers segment provides a wide range of MRO products in the rotating equipment, bearing, power transmission, hose, fluid power, metal working, fastener, industrial supply, safety products and safety services categories.
The Innovative Pumping Solutions segment fabricates and assembles custom-made pump packages, re-manufactures pumps, manufactures branded private label pumps, and provides products and process lines for the water and wastewater treatment industries.
The Supply Chain Services segment provides a wide range of MRO products and manages all or part of a customer's supply chain, including warehouse and inventory management.
No customer accounts for 10% or more of our revenues. Sales are shown net of intersegment eliminations.
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), manages the segments, evaluates financial results, and makes key operating decisions.
These segments were determined primarily on the distribution channels of the products and services offered and the nature of the customer markets and the primary driver of the customers spend. The Company's CODM directs the allocation of resources to these segments based upon historical and current revenue, direct operating expenses, operating income, and capital expenditures of each respective segment. The allocation of resources across these segments is dependent upon, among other factors, the segments' historical or future expected operating margins; the segments' historical or future expected returns on capital; outlook within a specific market; opportunities to grow profitability; new products, services or new customer accounts; confidence in management; and competitive landscape and intensity.
As a part of the Company's annual business planning, the CODM reviews our reportable segment composition and financial performance. As a result of this review, on January 1st, 2024, we moved certain branch locations previously reported under our IPS segment to our SC segment. Prior period segment disclosures have been recast.
