NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED 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, to be the successor to SEPCO Industries, Inc. DXP Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries are engaged in the business of distributing maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, and services to industrial customers. Additionally, DXP provides integrated, custom pump skid packages, pump remanufacturing and manufactures branded private label pumps to industrial customers. The Company is organized into three business segments: Service Centers, Supply Chain Services (SCS) and Innovative Pumping Solutions (IPS). See Note 13 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 (“USGAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. For a more complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and business practices, refer to the consolidated annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2015. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015 (unaudited), condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and six months ending June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015 (unaudited), and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015 (unaudited). All such adjustments represent normal recurring items.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires entities to recognize debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, however, early adoption is permitted. DXP adopted this guidance for the first quarter of 2015 and adjusted the balance sheet for all periods presented.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which provides guidance on revenue recognition. The core principal of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance requires entities to apply a five-step method to (1) identify the contract(s) with customers; (2) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. This pronouncement was originally effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2015, the FASB approved a proposal to defer the effective date to fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory ("ASU 2015-11"). The amendments in ASU 2015-11 clarify the subsequent measurement of inventory requiring an entity to subsequently measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This ASU applies only to inventory that is measured using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost method. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. The amendments in ASU 2015-11 should be applied prospectively and are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 - 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.

The following table presents the changes in Level 1 assets for the period indicated (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015	2014

Fair value at beginning of period	$ -	$ 1,837
Investment during the period	-	-
Realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in other comprehensive income	-	(149)
Proceeds on sale of investment	-	(1,688)
Fair value at end of period	$ -	$ -

The Company paid a total of $1.7 million for an investment with quoted market prices in an active market. At December 31, 2013, the market value of this investment was $1.8 million. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company sold this investment for $1.7 million. The Company recognized a $0.1 million loss in 2014 on the sale of his investment, which is included in other income within our condensed consolidated statements of income.

During the fourth quarter of 2014, in connection with the annual test for impairment, DXP recorded total impairment charges of $117.6 million in order to reflect the implied fair values of goodwill, which is a non-recurring fair value adjustment. The fair values of goodwill used in the impairment calculations were estimated based on discounted estimated future cash flows with the discount rates of 10.0% to 13.5%. The measurements utilized to determine the implied fair value of goodwill represent significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in accordance with the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 5 - INVENTORY

NOTE 6 – COSTS AND ESTIMATED PROFITS ON UNCOMPLETED CONTRACTS

On July 11, 2012, DXP entered into a credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent for the lenders (as amended, the “Original Facility”). On January 2, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent for other lenders (the “Facility”), amending and restating the Original Facility.

The Facility provides a term loan and a $350 million revolving line of credit to the Company. At June 30, 2015 the term loan component of the facility was $193.8 million. The Facility expires on January 2, 2019.

The Facility provides the option of interest at LIBOR (or CDOR for Canadian dollar loans) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or prime plus an applicable margin from 0.25% to 1.50% where the applicable margin is determined by the Company’s leverage ratio as defined by the Facility as of the last day of the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to the date of borrowing. Commitment fees of 0.20% to 0.45% per annum are payable on the portion of the Facility capacity not in use at any given time on the line of credit. Commitment fees are included as interest in the consolidated statements of income.

On June 30, 2015, the LIBOR based rate of the Facility was LIBOR plus 2.00% the prime based rate of the Facility was prime plus 1.00%, and the commitment fee was 0.35%. At June 30, 2015, $374.7 million was borrowed under the Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.2% under the LIBOR options. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $27.5 million available for borrowing under the Facility.

The Facility contains financial covenants defining various financial measures and levels of these measures with which the Company must comply. Covenant compliance is assessed as of each quarter end. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral to secure the credit facility.

On August 5, 2015, DXP amended the Facility to increase the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio and reduce the required Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. See additional discussion of the amendment in Note 16 – Subsequent Events to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

NOTE 10 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Restricted Stock

Under the restricted stock plan approved by our shareholders (the “Restricted Stock Plan”), directors, consultants and employees may be awarded shares of DXP’s common stock. The shares of restricted stock granted to employees and that are outstanding as of June 30, 2015 vest in accordance with one of the following vesting schedules: 100% one year after date of grant; 33.3% each year for three years after date of grant; 20% each year for five years after the grant date; or 10% each year for ten years after the grant date. The Restricted Stock Plan provides that on each July 1 during the term of the plan each non-employee director of DXP will be granted the number of whole shares calculated by dividing $75 thousand by the closing price of the common stock on such July 1. The shares of restricted stock granted to non-employee directors of DXP vest one year after the grant date. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured based upon the closing prices of DXP’s common stock on the grant dates and is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period of the awards. Once restricted stock vests, new shares of the Company’s stock are issued.

The following table provides certain information regarding the shares authorized and outstanding under the Restricted Stock Plan at June 30, 2015:

Number of shares authorized for grants	800,000
Number of shares granted	(850,378)
Number of shares forfeited	131,664

NOTE 12 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Revenues and expenses of the acquired businesses have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements beginning on their respective dates of acquisition. The allocation of purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities is based on estimates of fair market value and may be prospectively revised if and when additional information the Company is awaiting concerning certain asset and liability valuations is obtained, provided that such information is received no later than one year after the date of acquisition. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. It specifically includes the expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of our acquisitions with the operations of DXP and any intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition such as the assembled workforce.

On January 2, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity securities and units of B27, LLC (“B27”) by way of a Securities Purchase Agreement to expand DXP’s pump packaging offering. The total transaction value was approximately $293.6 million, excluding approximately $1.0 million in transaction costs recognized within SG&A in the 2013 statement of income. The purchase price was financed with borrowings under our amended credit facility and approximately $4.0 million (36,000 shares) of DXP common stock. Goodwill of $178.3 million and intangible assets of $81.1 million were recognized for this acquisition. Approximately $154.6 million of the estimated goodwill or intangible assets are expected not to be tax deductible. The estimated goodwill associated with this acquisition is included in the IPS and Service Centers segments. During the fourth quarter of 2014, DXP performed its annual impairment test and recognized impairment expense of $105.3 million on the goodwill associated with the acquisition of B27.

On May 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests of Machinery Tooling and Supply, LLC (“MT&S”) to expand DXP’s cutting tools offering in the North Central region of the United States. DXP paid approximately $14.7 million for MT&S, which was borrowed under our existing credit facility. Goodwill of $4.3 million and intangible assets of $4.1 million were recognized for this acquisition. All of the goodwill is included in the Service Centers segment.

On April 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests of Tool Supply, Inc. (“TSI”) to expand DXP’s cutting tools offering in the Northwest region of the United States. DXP paid approximately $5.0 million for TSI, which was borrowed under our existing credit facility. DXP has not completed valuations of intangibles for TSI, the valuation of working capital items or completed the analysis of the tax effects, and therefore has made preliminary estimates for the purposes of this disclosure. Estimated goodwill of $2.9 million and intangible assets of $2.0 were recognized for this acquisition. All of the estimated goodwill is included in the Service Centers segment.

The value assigned to the non-compete agreements and customer relationships for business acquisitions were determined by discounting the estimated cash flows associated with non-compete agreements and customer relationships as of the date the acquisition was consummated. The estimated cash flows were based on estimated revenues net of operating expenses and net of capital charges for assets that contribute to the projected cash flow from these assets. The projected revenues and operating expenses were estimated based on management estimates at the date of purchase. Net capital charges for assets that contribute to projected cash flow were based on the estimated fair value of those assets. For B27, a discount rate of 13.5% was deemed appropriate for valuing these assets and was based on the risks associated with the respective cash flows taking into consideration the acquired company’s weighted average cost of capital.

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, businesses acquired during 2014 and 2015 contributed sales of $44.8 million and a loss before taxes of approximately $2.3 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, businesses acquired during 2014 and 2015 contributed sales of $88.5 million and a loss before taxes of approximately $3.7 million.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during 2014 and 2015 in connection with the acquisitions described above (in thousands):

	B27	MT&S	TSI	Total
	B27	MT&S	TSI	Total

DXP is organized into three business segments: Service Centers, Supply Chain Services (SCS) and Innovative

Pumping Solutions (IPS). The Service Centers are engaged in providing maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, equipment and integrated services, including technical expertise and logistics capabilities, to industrial customers with the ability to provide same day delivery. The Service Centers provide a wide range of MRO products and services in the rotating equipment, bearing, power transmission, hose, fluid power, metal working, industrial supply and safety product and service categories. The SCS segment provides a wide range of MRO products and manages all or part of our customer’s supply chain, including inventory. The IPS segment fabricates and assembles integrated pump system packages custom made to customer specifications, remanufactures pumps and manufactures branded private label pumps. Over 90% of DXP’s revenues represent sales of products.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

SALES. Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased $57.9 million, or 15.2%, to approximately $323.7 million from $381.6 million for the prior corresponding period. Sales by businesses acquired accounted for a $4.4 million increase. Excluding second quarter 2015 sales from acquired businesses, on a same store sales basis, sales for the second quarter in 2015 decreased by $62.3 million, or 16.3% from the prior corresponding period. This sales decrease is the result of decreases in our Service Center and IPS segments of $39.1 million and $23.7 million, respectively, on a same store sales basis. These decreases in sales were partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million within our SCS segment. These variances are explained in segment discussions below. The strength of the U.S. dollar contributed to the sales decline. Sales for our Canadian operations were $32.6 million for the second quarter of 2015. The change in the exchange rate reduced sales by approximately $4.1 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the second quarter of 2014 average exchange rate.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by almost 90 basis points from the prior corresponding period. On a same store sales basis, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased by almost 90 basis points. The decline in the gross profit percentage, on a same store sales basis is primarily the result of an approximate 500 basis point decline in the gross profit percentage in our IPS segment discussed below.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by approximately $6.3 million, or 7.6%, to $77.3 million from $83.6 million for the prior corresponding period. Selling, general and administrative expense from businesses acquired accounted for $0.9 million of the second quarter amount. Excluding second quarter expenses from acquired businesses, on a same store sales basis, SG&A for the quarter decreased by $7.2 million, or 8.7%. The decline in SG&A, on a same store sales basis, is partially the result of a $2.6 million decrease in variable compensation. In addition, the strength of the U.S. dollar contributed to the decline in SG&A. Expenses for our Canadian operations were $9.4 million for the second quarter of 2015. The change in the exchange rate reduced SG&A by approximately $1.2 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the second quarter of 2014 average exchange rate. As a percentage of sales, the second quarter 2015 expense increased approximately 200 basis points to 23.9%, from 21.9% for the prior corresponding period, on a same store sales basis, primarily as a result of the percentage decrease in sales exceeding the percentage decline in SG&A.

OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the second quarter of 2015 decreased $13.4 million, or 48.9% compared to the prior corresponding period. Operating income from businesses acquired reduced the decline in operating income by $0.3 million. Excluding operating income from acquired businesses, on a same store sales basis, operating income decreased $13.7 million, or 50.1% from the prior corresponding period. This decrease in operating income is primarily related to the decline in sales and gross profit discussed above.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2015 decreased 18.4% from the prior corresponding period primarily due to paying down debt during 2014 and 2015.

INCOME TAXES. Our provision for income taxes differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible expenses. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2015 decreased to 37.9%, from 38.2% in the prior corresponding period, primarily as a result of changes in permanent differences and a decline in the effective state tax rate.

SERVICE CENTERS SEGMENT. Sales for the Service Centers segment decreased by $34.7 million, or 14.0% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. Excluding second quarter 2015 Service Centers segment sales from acquired businesses of $4.4 million, Service Centers segment sales for the second quarter in 2015 decreased $39.1 million, or 15.7% from the prior corresponding period, on a same store sales basis. This sales decrease is primarily the result of decreased sales of bearings, metal working products and safety services to customers engaged in the upstream oil and gas market or manufacturing equipment for the upstream oil and gas market. If crude oil and natural gas prices remain at, or below, prices experienced during the second quarter of 2015, this decline in sales to the upstream oil and gas industry would be expected to continue during the remainder of 2015. The strength of the U.S. dollar also contributed to the sales decline. Service Center sales for our Canadian operations were $23.1 million. The change in the exchange rate reduced sales by $2.9 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the second quarter of 2014 average exchange rate. As a percentage of sales, the second quarter gross profit percentage for the Service Centers increased approximately 20 basis points, or approximately 25 basis points on a same store sales basis, from the prior corresponding period. Operating income for the Service Centers segment decreased $4.4 million, or 17.1%. Excluding second quarter Service Centers segment operating income from businesses acquired of $0.5 million, Service Centers segment operating income for the second quarter in 2015 decreased by $4.9 million, or 19.2%, primarily as a result of the decreased sales discussed above.

INNOVATIVE PUMPING SOLUTIONS SEGMENT. Sales for the IPS segment decreased by $23.7 million, or 26.1% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily the result of a decline in the capital spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from the decline in the price of oil. This decline in IPS sales could continue during the remainder of 2015 if crude oil and natural gas prices remain at or below prices experienced during the second quarter of 2015. As a percentage of sales, the second quarter gross profit percentage for the IPS segment decreased approximately 500 basis points from the prior corresponding period primarily as a result of competitive pressures resulting in lower margin jobs and unabsorbed manufacturing overhead. Additionally, gross profit margins for individual orders for the IPS segment can fluctuate significantly because each order is for a unique package built to customer specifications and subject to varying competition. Operating income for the IPS segment decreased $9.9 million, or 62.6%, primarily as a result of the 26.1% decrease in sales and 500 basis point decline in the gross profit percentage discussed above.

SUPPLY CHAIN SERVICES SEGMENT. Sales for the SCS segment increased by $0.5 million, or 1.1%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. The increase in sales is primarily related to increased sales to new and existing customers in the food and beverage, transportation, and gas turbine industries which were partially offset by decreases in sales to customers in the oilfield services and oilfield equipment manufacturing industries. We suspect the customers, which purchased more products from DXP, did so because the customers increased production during the period. We suspect customers in the oilfield services and oilfield equipment manufacturing industries purchased less from DXP because of the decline in the number of drilling rigs operating in the U.S and Canada. Operating income for the SCS segment increased 4.4% primarily as a result of the 1.1% increase in sales combined with the 8.3% increase in gross profit.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 2014

SALES. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased $64.8 million, or 8.9%, to approximately $665.3 million from $730.1 million for the prior corresponding period. Sales by businesses acquired accounted for $15.7 million of second quarter sales. Excluding second quarter 2015 sales from businesses acquired, on a same store sales basis, sales for the second quarter in 2015 decreased by $80.5 million, or 11.0% from the prior corresponding period. This sales decrease is the result of decreases in our Service Center and IPS segments of $55.9 million and $29.3 million, respectively, on a same store sales basis. These decreases in sales were partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million within our SCS segment. These variances are explained in segment discussions below. The strength of the U.S. dollar contributed to the sales decline. Sales for our Canadian operations were $69.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The change in the exchange rate reduced sales by approximately $8.7 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the average exchange rate for the first six months of 2014.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by approximately 70 basis points compared with the prior corresponding period. This decrease is primarily the result of an approximate 230 basis point decline in the gross profit percentage for our IPS segment discussed below. On a same store sales basis, gross profit as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by almost 55 basis points compared with the prior corresponding period. This decline is primarily the result of an approximate 230 basis point decline in the gross profit percentage for our IPS segment discussed below.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. SG&A for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by approximately $6.9 million, or 4.2%, to $157.3 million from $164.2 million for the prior corresponding period. SG&A from businesses acquired accounted for $2.7 million of the expense. Excluding expenses from businesses acquired, on a same store sales basis, SG&A year-to-date decreased by $9.7 million, or 5.9%. This decrease is primarily the result of a $6.6 million decrease in variable compensation. In addition, the strength of the U.S. dollar contributed to the decline in SG&A. Expenses for our Canadian operations were $20.0 million for the first six months of 2015. The change in the exchange rate reduced SG&A by approximately $2.6 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the average exchange rate for the first six months of 2014. As a percentage of sales, the year-to-date 2015 expense increased to 23.6%, from 22.5% for the prior corresponding period as a result of the percentage decrease in sales discussed above exceeding the percentage decrease in SG&A.

OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the first six months of 2015 decreased $16.5 million, or 33.9% compared to the prior corresponding period. Operating income from businesses acquired reduced the decline in operating income by $0.8 million. Excluding operating income from acquired businesses, on a same store sales basis, operating income decreased $17.3 million, or 35.6% from the prior corresponding period. This decrease in operating income is primarily related to the decline in sales and gross profit discussed above.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the first six months of 2015 decreased 19.7% from the prior corresponding period primarily due to paying down debt during 2014 and 2015.

SERVICE CENTERS SEGMENT. Sales for the Service Centers segment decreased by $40.2 million, or 8.4% for the first six months of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. Excluding year-to-date 2015 Service Centers segment sales from acquired businesses of $15.7 million, Service Centers segment sales for the first six months in 2015 decreased $55.9 million, or 11.6% from the prior corresponding period, on a same store sales basis. This sales decrease is primarily the result of decreased sales of bearings, metal working products and safety services to customers engaged in the upstream oil and gas market or manufacturing equipment for the upstream oil and gas market. If crude oil and natural gas prices remain at, or below, prices experienced during the first six months of 2015, this decline in sales to the upstream oil and gas industry would be expected to continue during the remainder of 2015. The strength of the U.S. dollar also contributed to the sales decline. Service Center sales for our Canadian operations were $53.8 million. The change in the exchange rate reduced sales by $6.7 million compared to the amount which would be calculated using the average exchange rate for the first six months of 2014. Gross profit as a percentage of sales, on a same store sales basis, stayed flat. Operating income for the Service Centers segment decreased $5.9 million, or 11.9%. Excluding year-to-date Service Centers segment operating income from acquired businesses of $1.3 million, Service Centers segment operating income for the first six months in 2015 decreased by $7.3 million, or 14.6% primarily as a result of the 11.6% decrease in sales.

INNOVATIVE PUMPING SOLUTIONS SEGMENT. Sales for the IPS segment decreased by $29.3 million, or 17.2% for the first six months of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. The sales decrease primarily resulted from a decrease in capital spending by our oil and gas related customers. Operating income for the IPS segment decreased by $10.8 million, or 42.7%, primarily as a result of the 17.2% decrease in sales as well as an approximate 230 basis point decline in gross profit percentage. The decreased gross profit as a percentage of sales for the IPS segment is the result of competitive pressures resulting in lower margin jobs and unabsorbed manufacturing and fabrication overhead. Additionally, gross profit margins for individual orders for the IPS segment can fluctuate significantly because each order is for a unique package built to customer specifications and subject to varying competition.

SUPPLY CHAIN SERVICES SEGMENT. Sales for the SCS segment increased by $4.6 million, or 5.8%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to the prior corresponding period. The increase in sales is primarily related to increased sales to new and existing customers in the transportation, food and beverage, mining and chemical industries, which were partially offset by decreases in sales to customers in the oilfield services and oilfield equipment manufacturing industries. We suspect the customers, which purchased more products from DXP, did so because the customers increased production during the period. We suspect customers in the oilfield services and oilfield equipment manufacturing industries purchased less from DXP because of the decline in the number of drilling rigs operating in the U.S and Canada. Operating income for the SCS segment increased 4.6% primarily as a result of the 5.8% increase in sales.

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS, GOODWILL AND SUPPLEMENTAL PRO-FORMA DATA

A key component of our growth strategy includes completing acquisitions of businesses with complementary or desirable product lines, locations or customers. Since 2004, we have completed 30 acquisitions across our three business segments. Below is a summary of recent acquisitions.

On January 2, 2014, the Company acquired all of the equity securities and units of B27, LLC (“B27”). DXP acquired this business to expand DXP’s pump packaging offering. The total transaction value was approximately $293.6 million, excluding approximately $1.0 million in transaction costs. The purchase price was financed with borrowings under DXP’s amended credit facility and approximately $4.0 million (36,000 shares) of DXP common stock.

On May 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests of Machinery Tooling and Supply, LLC (MT&S) by way of an Equity Purchase Agreement to expand DXP’s cutting tools offering in the North Central region of the United States. DXP paid approximately $14.7 million for MT&S, which was borrowed under our existing credit facility.

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, businesses acquired during 2014 and 2015 contributed sales of $44.8 million and a loss before taxes of approximately $2.3 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, businesses acquired during 2014 and 2015 contributed sales of $88.5 million and a loss before taxes of approximately $3.7 million.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during 2014 and 2015 in connection with the acquisitions described above (in thousands):

	B27	MT&S	TSI	Total

During 2014 DXP was working to improve the profitability of the NatPro IPS reporting unit. The decline in oil prices during the third quarter of 2014 significantly lowered the forecasts for oil and gas activity in Canada because Canada has high costs for oil production. This decline in forecasted oil and gas activity delayed the expected achievement of profitability for the NatPro IPS reporting unit. Considering the actual results of the NatPro IPS reporting unit for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the decline in oil prices, DXP did not believe it was reasonable to expect the NatPro IPS reporting unit to achieve the improved operating results in the time frame forecasted at the date of acquisition. The NatPro IPS goodwill was reduced to zero with the impairment.

DXP acquired B27 on January 1, 2014. At the time of acquisition, B27 management forecasted 2014 revenues to increase significantly over 2013 revenues based on their expectation of receiving several large orders from oil companies in South America. During the first half of 2014, the oil companies delayed the issuance of the expected purchase orders. However, oil prices increased during the period, which supported the probability the projects would be funded. During the third quarter of 2014 oil prices declined and it appeared the projects related to the expected orders were being deferred indefinitely. The indefinite delay in the pending large oil and gas production related projects in South America combined with the effect of the third quarter decline in oil prices on the domestic market reduced the expected fair value of the B27 reporting units. Considering the actual results of the B27 reporting units for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the decline in oil prices, DXP did not believe it was reasonable to expect B27 to be able to achieve the future operating results forecasted at the time of acquisition. The remaining aggregate goodwill for the B27 Service Centers and B27 IPS reporting units was $73 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Because the carrying values of the B27 reporting units equal the fair values of these reporting units as of October 1, 2014, a decline in the estimated cash flows of the reporting units could result in an impairment loss. A decline in the estimated cash flows could result from a significant, sustained decline in capital spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General Overview

As a distributor of MRO products and services, we require significant amounts of working capital to fund inventories and accounts receivable. Additional cash is required for capital items for information technology, warehouse equipment, leasehold improvements, pump manufacturing equipment and safety services equipment. We also require cash to pay our lease obligations and to service our debt.

The Company generated $53.8 million of cash in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $19.8 million during the prior corresponding period. The increase between the two periods was primarily driven by changes in working capital.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the amount available to be borrowed under our credit agreement with our bank lender decreased from $51.0 million at December 31, 2014 to $27.5 million at June 30, 2015. This decrease in availability primarily resulted from the $18.8 million decline in the earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization for the twelve months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.

Credit Facility

The Facility provides a term loan and a $350 million revolving line of credit to the Company. At June 30, 2015, the term loan component of the facility was $193.8 million. The Facility expires on January 2, 2019.

On June 30, 2015, the LIBOR based rate of the Facility was LIBOR plus 2.00%, the prime based rate of the Facility was prime plus 1.00%, and the commitment fee was 0.35%. At June 30, 2015, $374.7 million was borrowed under the Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.2% under the LIBOR options. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $27.5 million available for borrowing under the most restrictive covenant under the Facility.

At June 30, 2015, the Facility’s principal financial covenants included:

Consolidated Leverage Ratio – The Facility requires that the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, determined at the end of each fiscal quarter, not exceed 3.25 to 1.0 as of the last day of each quarter. The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is defined as the outstanding indebtedness divided by Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date. Indebtedness is defined under the Facility for financial covenant purposes as: (a) all obligations of DXP for borrowed money including but not limited to obligations evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or other similar instruments; (b) obligations to pay deferred purchase price of property or services; (c) capital lease obligations; (d) obligations under conditional sale or other title retention agreements relating to property purchased; and (e) contingent obligations for funded indebtedness. At June 30, 2015, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 3.03 to 1.00.

Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio –The Facility requires that the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on the last day of each quarter be not less than 1.25 to 1.0 with “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” defined as the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA for the period of 4 consecutive fiscal quarters ending on such date minus capital expenditures during such period (excluding acquisitions) minus income tax expense paid minus the aggregate amount of restricted payments defined in the agreement to (b) the interest expense paid in cash, scheduled principal payments in respect of long-term debt and the current portion of capital lease obligations for such 12-month period, determined in each case on a consolidated basis for DXP and its subsidiaries. At June 30, 2015, the Company's Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio was 1.82 to 1.00.

Asset Coverage Ratio –The Facility requires that the Asset Coverage Ratio at any time be not less than 1.0 to 1.0 with “Asset Coverage Ratio” defined as the ratio of (a) the sum of 85% of net accounts receivable plus 65% of net inventory to (b) the aggregate outstanding amount of the revolving credit on such date. At June 30, 2015, the Company's Asset Coverage Ratio was 1.26 to 1.00.

Consolidated EBITDA as defined under the Facility for financial covenant purposes means, without duplication, for any period the consolidated net income of DXP plus, to the extent deducted in calculating consolidated net income, depreciation, amortization (except to the extent that such non-cash charges are reserved for cash charges to be taken in the future), non-cash compensation including stock option or restricted stock expense, interest expense and income tax expense for taxes based on income, certain one-time costs associated with our acquisitions, integration costs, facility consolidation and closing costs, severance costs and expenses, write-down of cash expenses incurred in connection with the existing credit agreement and extraordinary losses less interest income and extraordinary gains. Consolidated EBITDA shall be adjusted to give pro forma effect to disposals or business acquisitions assuming that such transaction(s) had occurred on the first day of the period excluding all income statement items attributable to the assets or equity interests that is subject to such disposition made during the period and including all income statement items attributable to property or equity interests of such acquisitions permitted under the Facility.

Amount available	$ 27,537(1)	$ 50,955(1)	$ (23,418)
(1) Represents amount available to be borrowed at the indicated date under the Facility under the most restrictive covenant. The decrease in the amount available to be borrowed is primarily the result of the $18.8 million decline in Defined EBITDA for the twelve months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. Facility Amendment Subsequent to June 30, 2015: On August 6, 2015, DXP amended the Facility to increase the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio and reduce the required Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. DXP incurred $0.5 million in debt issuance costs as a result of the amendment, which will be amortized over the remaining three and a half years of the loan. See additional discussion of the amendment in Note 16 – Subsequent Events to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Performance Metrics (in days):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
			Increase
	2015	2014	(Decrease)

Days of sales outstanding	57.1	63.0	(5.9)
Inventory turns	8.5	9.7	(1.2)

Accounts receivable days of sales outstanding were 57.1 days at June 30, 2015 compared to 63.0 days at June 30, 2014. The 5.9 days decrease was primarily due to improved collection days for B27 resulting from completion of a large contract job with a large accounts receivable balance in 2014. Inventory turns were 8.5 times compared to 9.7 times at June 30, 2015. The decrease is primarily related to our second quarter 2015 organic sales decline, which resulted in sales decreasing faster than inventory decreased.

Funding Commitments

We believe our cash generated from operations and cash available under our credit facility will meet our normal working capital needs during the next twelve months. However, we may require additional debt or equity financing to fund potential acquisitions. Such additional financings may include additional bank debt or the public or private sale of debt or equity securities. In connection with any such financing, we may issue securities that substantially dilute the interests of our shareholders. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on attractive terms, if at all.

Share Repurchases

On December 17, 2014, DXP publicly announced an authorization from the Board of Directors that allows DXP from time to time to purchase up to 400,000 shares of DXP's common stock over 24 months. Purchases could be made in open market or in privately negotiated transactions. DXP has purchased 191,420 shares for $8.9 million under this authorization as of June 30, 2015. No shares were purchased during the second quarter of 2015.

Acquisitions

DISCUSSION OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS POLICIES

Critical accounting and business policies are those that are both most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial position and results of operations, and require management’s subjective or complex judgments. These policies have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of DXP.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Our market risk results from volatility in interest rates. Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our debt portfolio. Using floating interest rate debt outstanding at June 30, 2015 and 2014, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in approximately a $3.8 million and a $4.9 million change in annual interest expense, respectively. The decrease from 2014 is primarily the result of paying down debt during 2014 and 2015.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was evaluated by our management with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, David R. Little (principal executive officer), and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Mac McConnell (principal financial officer). Messrs. Little and McConnell have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to help ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file with the SEC is accumulated and communicated to management and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by the SEC.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter (the quarter ended June 30, 2015) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
