The company’s 3Q YoY sales growth of 8.2% was a considerable slowdown from 2Q’s 16.4%, but still considered strong.
On Nov. 8, Houston-based pumping solutions and MROP supplies distributor DXP Enterprises announced its 2023 third quarter earnings, which showed $419.2 million in sales, an 8.2% year-over-year increase.
The 8.2% growth was a noticeable drop from 2Q — when DXP reported 16.4% growth — but still a healthy quarter by almost any measure. For the first nine months of 2023, DXP reported more than $1.27 billion in year-to-date sales, an 18.3% increase over 2022.
“The Company posted solid third-quarter results in a lessening inflationary market and varied spending by our customers, delivering solid sales, Adjusted EBITDA, earnings per share and Free Cash Flow performance,” said David R. Little, Chairman and CEO.
Net income for 3Q increased 16.1% to $16.2 million, compared to $13.9 million during the same quarter a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for 3Q was $44.0 million compared to $34.3 million for 3Q 2022. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales, or Adjusted EBITDA Margin, was 10.5% and 8.9%, respectively.

- Service Centers: Revenue was $294.5 million, a 1.3% sequential decrease and an increase of 13.2% year-over-year, with a 14.1% operating income margin and a revenue increase of 21.7% for the nine months ended Sept. 30.
