The ASU does not affect the accounting by cloud service providers, other software vendors or customers’ accounting for software licensing arrangements. The ASU will require companies to recognize deferred implementation costs to expense over the ‘term of the hosting arrangement’. Under the ASU, the term of the hosting arrangement comprises the noncancellable period of the CCA plus any optional renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or for which exercise of the option is controlled by the vendor. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, includingand interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU early on December 31, 2017. The Company's annual tests of goodwill for impairment, including qualitative assessments of all of its reporting units' goodwill, determinedEarly adoption is permitted, and we will continue to assess the standard and make a quantitative impairment test was not necessary.  Therefore the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.determination later.

Business Combinations.Fair Value Measurement. In January 2017,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, 2018-13: Business Combinations (Topic 805): ClarifyingFair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework-Changes to the DefinitionDisclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure


requirements for fair value measurements as part of a Business. This ASU clarifiesits disclosure framework project. Entities will no longer be required to disclose the definitionamount of a business withand reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the objective of addingfair value hierarchy, but public companies will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance to assistis effective for all entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. The effective date of this ASU is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. years, but entities are permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the disclosure requirements. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2018, and it didnew standard will not have a materialan impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.  As discussed in Note 14 "Business Acquisitions", the Company acquired Application Specialties, Inc. in January 2018.  Application Specialties, Inc. met the definitionour results of a business under the new guidance and goodwill was recorded.
Statement of Cash Flows. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The effective date of the amendment to the standard is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2018, andoperations, but it did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Instruments. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This change to the financial instrument model primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities underwill significantly modify our disclosures around fair value options and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. The effective date for the standard is for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. Certain provisions of the new guidance can be adopted early. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2018, and it did not have a material impact on the Company's Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition. 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, as amended by ASU 2015-14, was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017.

The Company has evaluated the provisions of the new standard and assessed its impact on financial statements, information systems, business processes and financial statement disclosures. We engaged a third party consultant to assist us in assessing our contracts with customers, processes and controls required to address the impact that ASU No. 2014-09 would have on our business. The Company elected the modified retrospective method and adopted the new revenue guidance effective January 1, 2018, with no impact to the opening retained earnings.

The analysis of contracts with customers under the new revenue recognition standard was consistent with the Company's current revenue recognition model, whereby revenue is recognized primarily on the date products are shipped to the customer. The ASU also requires expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, significant judgments and accounting policy.

The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 4 – Revenue Recognition.

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current US GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The update is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the guidance will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.disclosures.

Leases.
NOTE 4 - LEASES

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). which was modified by subsequently issued ASUs 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11 and 2018-20. The update requires organizations that lease assets ("lessees") to recognize the assets and liabilities forof the rights and obligations created by leases with terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee remains dependent on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The criteria for determining whether a lease is a finance or operating lease haswas not been significantly changed by this ASU. The ASU also requires additional disclosure of the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. This pronouncement iswas effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption iswas permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 4 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

In May 2014,July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and issued subsequent amendmentsNo. 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements (Topic 842). ASU 2018-11 provided additional relief in the comparative reporting requirements for initial adoption of ASC 842. Prior to the initial guidance in August 2015, March 2016, April 2016, May 2016, and December 2016 within ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-12 and ASU 2016-20, respectively. The core principle of this new revenue recognition guidance is that a company will recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle. The new guidance also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance provides for two transition methods, a full retrospective approach and2018-11, a modified retrospective approach.

Ontransition was required for financing or operating leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. ASU 2018-11 provided an additional transition method to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method with no impact2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings and determined there were no changes required to its reported revenues as a result in the period of the adoption. The Company has enhanced its disclosures of revenue to comply with the new guidance.

Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC Topic 606, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition." 

Overview
The Company's primary source of revenue is the sale of products, and service to energy and industrial customers. The Company is organized into three business segments: Service Centers, Supply Chain Services and Innovative Pumping Solutions.

The Service Centers segment provides a wide range of maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, equipment and integrated services, including logistics capabilities, to industrial customers. Revenue is recognized upon the completion of our performance obligation(s) under the sales agreement.  The majority of the Service Centers segment revenue originates 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 identified, and the price or consideration to be received is fixed and allocatedadoption without adjustment to the performance obligation(s) in the contract.  We believe our performance obligation has been satisfied when title passesfinancial statements for periods prior to the customer or services have been rendered under the contract.  Revenues are recorded net of sales taxes.adoption.

The Company fabricatesadopted the standard effective January 1, 2019. We elected to apply the current period transition approach as introduced by ASU 2018-11 for our transition at January 1, 2019 and assembles custom-made pump packages, remanufactures pumpswe elected to apply the following practical expedients and manufactures branded private label pumps within our Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. For binding agreementsaccounting policy decisions.

We elected a package of transition expedients that allowed us to fabricate tangibleforgo reassessing certain conclusions reached under ASC 840 which must be elected together. All expedients in this package were applied together for all leases that commenced before the effective date, January 1, 2019, of ASC 842. As a result, in transitioning to ASC 842, for existing leases as of 1/1/2019, we continued to use judgments made under ASC 840 related to embedded leases, lease classification and accounting for initial direct costs. We generally have four classes of leased assets : Real Estate related properties (such as office space, warehouses, distribution centers and land), Automobiles, Office Equipment and Manufacturing Equipment and do not utilize finance leases.

In addition, we have chosen, as an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset, not to customer specifications,separate nonlease components from the Company recognizes revenues over time when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantiallyassociated lease for all of our leased asset classes, except for Real Estate related leases. As a result, for classes of Automobiles, Office Equipment and Manufacturing Equipment, we account for each separate lease component and the benefitsnonlease components associated with that lease as a single lease component.

For short-term leases as defined under ASC 842, we elected the short-term lease exception pursuant to ASC 842 to all classes of the work performed.  This typically occurs when the products have no alternative use for us and we haveour leased assets. We do not recognize a lease liability or a right to paymentof use asset on our consolidated balance sheets for our leased assets with an original lease term of twelve months or less. Instead, we recognize the work completed to date pluslease payments in profit or loss on a reasonable profit margin.  Contracts generally include cancellation provisions that requirestraight-line basis over the customer to reimburse uslease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation 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 the new standard. Under this method, revenues are recognized as costs arethose payments is incurred and include estimated profits calculated ondisclose in the basis ofnotes to the relationship between costs incurred and total estimated costs at completion. If at any time expected costs exceed the value of the contract, the loss is recognized immediately. The typical time span of these contracts is approximately three to eighteen months.consolidated financial statements our short-term lease expense.

The Supply Chain Services segment providesnew standard did have a wide range of MRO products and manages all or part of a customer's supply chain, including warehouse and inventory management. Like the Service Centers segment above, revenue for the Supply Chain Services segment is recognized upon the completion of performance obligations. Revenues are recognized when an agreement or contract is in placematerial impact on our consolidated balance sheets related to recording right-of-use assets and the price is fixed followed by executioncorresponding lease liabilities for our inventory of operating leases. In January 2019, we recorded a ROU Asset and total lease liability obligations of approximately $72 million, each. The new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations and had no impact on cash flows.



We lease office space, warehouses, land, automobiles, and office and manufacturing equipment. All of our performance obligations.  We generally consider the satisfaction of our performance obligation has occurred when title for product passes to the customer or services have been rendered.

See Note 15 "Segment Reporting" Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 month to 12 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for disaggregationup to 14 years. The exercise of revenue by reporting segments. lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Our lease agreements do not include options to purchase the leased property.

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 managements 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 measurement as discussed above, as they are not observable in the market. Should actual results increase or decrease as compared to the assumption 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 earn-out consideration are measured each reporting period and reflected in our results of operations.  As of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, we recorded a $4$2.9 million liability for contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of ASIApplication Specialties Inc. ("ASI") in other current and long-term liabilities.  See further discussion at Note 14 "Business Acquisitions".

Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs

As presented in the table above, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of ASI are annualized EBITDAearnings before interest, tax, deprecation and amortization ("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 7.6%7.3%. Significant increases (decreases) in these unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a significantly (lower) higher fair value measurement.

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30,March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, but which require disclosure of their fair values include: cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued payroll and related benefits, and the revolving line of credit and term loan debt under our syndicated credit agreement facility. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of such instruments at June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and December 31, 20172018 approximates their carrying value as reported on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Suchour IPS segment, amounts are recoverable from customersbilled 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. Our contract assets are presented as “cost and estimated profits in excess of billings” on our
Condensed Condsolidated 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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act contains several tax law changes that will impact the Company in the current and future periods. The Company is applying the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 118 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Specifically, SAB 118 permits companies to record a provisional amount which can be remeasured during the measurement period due to obtaining, preparing, or analyzing additional information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the enacted date.  At June 30, 2018, the Company has not completed our accounting for all of the tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act; however, in certain cases, as described below, the Company has made a reasonable estimate of other effects. The Company will continue to refine our calculations as additional analysis is completed.

The Company originally remeasured our U.S. net deferred tax liabilities and recorded a provisional $1.3 million benefit and a corresponding provisional decrease in the U.S. net deferred tax liability relating to the reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35%. We are still in the process of analyzing Tax Cuts and Jobs Act's impact as permitted under SAB 118. The largest impact to the Company being the remeasurement of deferred taxes due to the U.S. statutory tax rate change. The mandatory repatriation and resulting toll charge on accumulated foreign earnings and profits has limited impact on the Company as unremitted earnings from non-US jurisdictions is minimal.  The Company is provisional in its approach and assertion that there is no financial statement impact related to mandatory repatriation as of June 30, 2018. We will continue to monitor tax reform, as we anticipate additional guidance from the Internal Revenue Service will become more available throughout 2018.

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was a tax expense of 25.21%26.7% for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 compared to a tax expense of 36.81%26.7% for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2017.March 31, 2018. Compared to the U.S. statutory rate for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate was increased by state taxes, foreign taxes, and nondeductible expenses and partially offset by research and development tax credits. Compared to the U.S. statutory rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, the effective tax rate was increased by state taxes and nondeductible expenses and partially offset by lower income tax rates on income earned in foreign jurisdictions, domestic production activities deduction, andtaxes research and development tax credits, foreign tax credits, and other tax credits.
10

Compared to the U.S. statutory rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, the effective tax rate was increased by state taxes and nondeductible expenses and partially offset by foreign taxes, research and development credits, and other tax credits.



To the extent penalties and interest would be assessed on any underpayment of income tax, such accrued amounts would be classified as a component of income tax provision (benefit) in the financial statements consistent with the Company’s policy.

August 2017 Credit Agreements

On August 29, 2017, the Company entered into two credit agreements (the "August 2017 Credit Agreements") that provided for an $85.0 million asset-backed revolving line of credit (the "ABL Revolver") and a $250.0 million senior secured term loan B (the "Term Loan B"). Under the ABL Revolver, the Company may request $10.0 million incremental revolving loan commitments in an additional aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million, subject to pro forma compliance with certain net secured leverage ratio tests.

The applicable rate for the ABL Revolver is LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% per annum. The applicable rate for the Term Loan B was LIBOR plus 5.50% subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. The maturity date of the ABL Revolver is August 29, 2022 and the maturity date of the Term Loan B is August 29, 2023.

On June 25, 2018, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (the "Repricing Amendment") to the Senior Secured Term Loan B Agreement. The Repricing Amendment, among other things, reduced the applicable rate for the term loans to LIBOR plus 4.75% (subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.00%) from LIBOR plus 5.50%. The Repricing Amendment also includes a "soft call" prepayment penalty of 1.0% for a period of six months commencing with the date of the Repricing Amendment for certain prepayments, refinancing, and amendments.

The Company accounted for the Repricing Amendment as a modification of debt. Approximately, $60,000 of prior deferred debt issuance cost were accelerated and recorded as additional interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive operations, attributable to prior syndicate lenders who reduced or eliminated their positions during the amendment process. The Company also incurred $0.9 million of third party fees in connection with the Repricing Amendment, which was also recorded as additional interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive operations.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had no amount outstanding under the ABL Revolver and had $80.0 million of borrowing capacity, including the impact of letters of credit.

NOTE 11 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Restricted Stock

Under the equity incentive plans approved by our shareholders, directors, consultants and employees may be awarded shares of DXP's common stock. The shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted to employees and that are outstanding as of June 30, 2018 vest (or have forfeiture restrictions that lapse) 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 date of grant; or 10% each year for ten years after date of grant. 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. Shares of our common stock are issued and outstanding upon the grant of awards of restricted stock. Once restricted stock units vest, new shares of the Company's stock are issued.  At June 30, 2018, 279,149 shares were available for future grant.

Changes in restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were as follows:

  
Number of
Shares

Vested  (12,699) $49.67 
Non-vested at June 30, 2018  187,276  $29.63 

Compensation expense, associated with restricted stock, recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $1.0 million, respectively. Related income tax benefits recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $0.4 million. Unrecognized compensation expense under the Restricted Stock Plan at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $4.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, the weighted average period over which the unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recognized is 28.2 months.

NOTE 1311 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While DXP is unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits, it believes that the ultimate resolution will not have, either individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on DXP's consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.

NOTE 14 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

On January 1, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Application Specialties, Inc. ("ASI"), a distributor of cutting tools, abrasives, coolants and machine shop supplies. The Company paid approximately $11.7 million in cash and stock. The purchase price also includes approximately $4.0 million in contingent consideration. The purchase was financed with $10.8 million of cash on hand as well as issuing $0.9 million of the Company's common stock. ASI will provide the Company's metal working division with new geographic territory and enhance DXP's end market mix. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, ASI contributed sales of $23.0 million and earnings before taxes of approximately $2.6 million.

As part of our purchase agreement, we may pay up to an additional $4.6 million of contingent consideration over the next three years based on the achievement of certain earnings benchmarks established for calendar years 2018, 2019 and 2020. The purchase price includes the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration recorded at the present value of $4.0 million. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. We determined the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations by calculating the probability-weighted payments based on our assessment of the likelihood that the benchmarks will be achieved. The probability-weighted payments were then discounted using a discount rate based on an internal rate of return analysis using the probability-weighted cash flows. The fair value measurement includes earnings forecasts which are a Level 3 measurement as discussed in Note 5. 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.
As of June 30, 2018 approximately $1.4 million of the actual cash due toward the contingent consideration earned is recorded in current liabilities. We may pay up to an additional $3.2 million over the remaining earn-out period based on the achievement of certain EBITDA benchmarks. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration is recorded at the present value of $4.0 million at June 30, 2018. Changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration, up to the total contractual amount, are reflected in our results of operations in the periods in which they are identified. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration may materially impact and cause volatility in our future operating results. Changes in our estimates for the contingent consideration are discussed in Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The total acquisition consideration is equal to the sum of all cash payments, the fair value of stock issued, and the present value of any contingent consideration. The following table summarizes the total acquisition consideration for the ASI Purchase:
13

Purchase Price Consideration Total Consideration 
  (Dollars in thousands) 
Cash payments $10,792 
Fair value of stock issued  894 
Present value of estimated fair value of contingent earn-out consideration  4,006 
Total purchase price consideration $15,692

Sales from a business acquired on January 1, 2018 accounted for $12.4 million of the increase. Excluding second quarter 2018 sales of the business acquired, sales for the second quarter in 2018 increased by $48.1 million, or 19.2% from the prior year's corresponding period. This sales increase is the result of an increase in our IPS, SC, SCS and SCSIPS segments of $29.8$10.8 million, $16.4$7.4 million and $1.9$7.1 million, respectively, excluding acquisition sales.respectively. The fluctuations in sales is further explained in our business segment discussions below.

Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. Sales for the IPS segment increased by $29.8 million, or 67.0% for the second quarter of 2018 compared to the prior year's corresponding period. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in the capital spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from an increase in the drilling rig count production and the price of oil during the first six months of 2018.  This level of IPS sales might continue, or improve, during the remainder of 2018, if crude oil and natural gas prices and the drilling rig count remain at levels experienced during the first six months of 2018.

Excluding $12.4 million of second quarter 2018 Service Centers segment sales from a business acquired, Service Centers segment sales for the second quarter in 2018 increased $16.4 million, or 10.0% from the prior year's corresponding period. This sales increase is primarily the result of increased sales of rotating equipment, bearings and power transmissions and metal working products to customers engaged in the late upstream, midstream or downstream oil and gas markets or manufacturing equipment for these markets in connection with increased capital spending by oil and gas producers. If crude oil and natural gas prices and the drilling rig count remain at levels experienced during the second quarter of 2018, this level of sales to the oil and gas industry might continue, or improve, during the remainder of 2018.2019.

17Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. Sales for the IPS segment increased by $7.1 million, or 10.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the prior year's corresponding period. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in the capital spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from an increase in the drilling rig count production and the price of oil during the first three months of 2019 compared to the prior year corresponding period. This level of IPS sales might continue, or improve, during the remainder of 2019, if crude oil and natural gas prices and the drilling rig count remain at levels experienced during the first three months of 2019.


GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2018 decreasedMarch 31, 2019 increased by approximately 1532 basis points from the prior year's corresponding period. Excluding the impact of the business acquired, gross profit as a percentage of sales increased by approximately 31 basis points. The increase in the gross profit percentage excluding the business acquired, is primarily the result of an approximate 397104 basis point increase in the gross profit percentage in our IPS segment, 41 basis point increase in the gross profit percentage in our SC segment partially offset by an approximate 2756 basis point decrease in the gross profit percentage in our Supply Chain ServicesSCS segment.

The increase in operating income is primarily the result of the improved sales.

Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. As a percentage of sales, the secondfirst quarter gross profit percentage for the IPS segment increased approximately 397104 basis points from the prior year's corresponding period primarily as a result of an increase in utilization and capacity within IPS' engineered-to-order business and an overall improvement in the pricing environment driven by an increase in capital spending by oil and gas producers. Additionally, gross profit margins for individual orders have continued to improve because of the increase in sales of built to order customer specific products. Operating income for the IPS segment increased $7.2$0.4 million or 410%6.5%, primarily as a result of the above mentioned increase in sales.

Supply Chain ServicesService Centers segment. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased approximately 27 basis points, compared to the prior year's corresponding period.  This was primarily as a result of sales mix and contractual lag effects of price increases from vendors.  Operating income for the second quarter of 2018 increased compared to the prior year's corresponding period mainly due to an increase in gross profit of $0.3 million primarily and a decrease in SG&A of $0.2 million.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE ("SG&A"). Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by approximately $6.4 million, or 10.9%, to $65.1 million from $58.7 million for the prior year's corresponding period.

Excluding expenses from the business that was acquired, SG&A for the quarter increased by $5.6 million, or 9.6%. The overall increase in SG&A adjusting for the business acquired, is the result of increased payroll, incentive compensation and related taxes and 401(K) expenses. The remaining increase in SG&A expense for the second quarter of 2018 is a result of the increase in sales. As a percentage of sales, the secondfirst quarter 2018 expense decreased 188 basis points to 21.5% from 23.4% for the prior year's corresponding period, adjusting for the business acquired, primarily as a result of the percentage increase in sales exceeding the percentage decrease in SG&A.

Excluding the operating income from the business acquired, operating income increased $8.5 million, or 83.2% from the prior year's corresponding period. This increase in operating income is primarily related to the increase in sales discussed above.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2018 increased 53.7% from the prior year's corresponding period primarily as a result of increased interest rates under our credit facility.

INCOME TAXES. Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was a tax expense of 24.62% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a tax expense of 36.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2017

SALES. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $107.9 million, or 22.1%, to approximately $597.2 million from $489.2 million for the prior year's corresponding period. Sales from a business acquired on January 1, 2018 accounted for $23.0 million of the increase in sales. Excluding the first six months of 2018 sales of the business acquired, sales for the first six months of 2018 sales increased by $85.0 million, or 17.4% from the prior year's corresponding period. This sales increase is the result of an increase in our IPS, SC and SCS segments of $48.4 million, $32.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively, excluding acquisition sales. The fluctuations in sales is further explained in our business segment discussions below.

Innovative Pumping Solutions segment. Sales for the IPS segment increased by $48.4 million, or 51.7% for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 compared to the prior year's corresponding period. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in the capital spending by oil and gas producers and related businesses stemming from an increase in the drilling rig count production and the price of oil during the first six months of 2018.  This level of IPS sales might continue, or improve, during the remainder of 2018 if crude oil and natural gas prices and the drilling rig count remain at levels experienced during the first six months of 2018.

Service Centers segment. Sales for the Service Centers segment increased by $55.5 million, or 17.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the prior year's corresponding period. Excluding $23.0 million of Service Centers segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from a business acquired, Service Centers segment sales for the period increased $32.5 million, or 10.4% from the prior year's corresponding period. This sales increase is primarily the result of increased sales of rotating equipment, bearings and metal working products to customers engaged in the late upstream, midstream or downstream oil and gas markets or manufacturing equipment for these markets in connection with increased capital spending by oil and gas producers. If crude oil and natural gas prices and the drilling rig count remain at levels experienced during the second quarter of 2018, this level of sales to the oil and gas industry might continue, or improve, during the remainder of 2018.

Supply Chain Services segment. Sales for the SCS segment increased by $4.1 million, or 5.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the prior year's corresponding period. The increase in sales is primarily related to increased sales to customers in the oil and gas and aerospace industries. We suspect customers in the oilfield services and oilfield equipment manufacturing industries purchased more from DXP because of the increase in capital spending by oil and gas companies operating in the U.S.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General Overview

As ofMarch 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $30.7 million and bank and other borrowings of $240.0 million. We have a $85 million Asset-Based loan facility that is due to mature in August 2022, under which we had no borrowing outstanding as of March 31, 2019.

Our primary source of capital is cash flow from operations, supplemented as necessary by bank borrowings or other sources of debt. 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 following table summarizes our net cash flows used in and provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities and net cash (used in) provided by financing activities for the periods presented (in thousands):

Operating Activities

The Company used $7.0$5.3 million of cash in operating activities during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 compared to generating $7.9using $0.8 million of cash during the prior year's corresponding period. The $14.9$4.5 million increase in the amount of cash used between the two periods was primarily driven by inventory build-up and increases in costs and estimated profits in excess of billings as a result of increased project activity at our IPS segment.

Investing Activities

For the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $13.6$2.3 million compared to $1.1$10.6 million in the corresponding period in 2017.2018. This increase$8.3 million decrease was primarily driven by the purchase of ASI in 2018 and partially offset by proceeds from the sale of a building.investing in capital equipment. For the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, purchases of property plant and equipment werewas approximately $5.5$2.3 million.

Financing Activities

For the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, net cash used in financing activities was $1.9$2.3 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $5.9$1.0 million for the corresponding period in 2017.2018. The activity in the period was primarily attributed to the Company making principal repayments onpayment of contingent consideration associated with the Term Loan.purchase of ASI.



During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the amount available to be borrowed under our credit facility decreasedincreased to $80.0$79.6 million at June 30, 2018 compared to $82.0$79.3 million at December 31, 2017.2018. This was the result of $5.0$5.4 million in letters of credit outstanding as of June 30,March 31, 2019 compared to $5.7 million in letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2018.

We believe this is adequate funding to support working capital needs within the business.

Funding Commitments

We intend to pursue additional acquisition targets, but the timing, size or success of any acquisition effort and the related potential capital commitments cannot be determined with certainty. We continue to expect to fund future acquisitions primarily with cash flows from operations and borrowings, including the undrawn portion of the credit facility or new debt issuances, but may also issue additional equity either directly or in connection with acquisitions. There can be no assurance that additional financing for acquisitions will be available at terms acceptable to us.

We believe our cash generated from operations will meet our normal working capital needs during the next twelve months. However, we may require additional debt outside of our credit facilities 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.

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.

The Company's condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

OurFor quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, results from volatility in interest rates.see Item 7A, 'Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,' of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Our exposureexposures to interest ratemarket risk relates primarily to our debt portfolio.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

The Company'sDisclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is reported, processed, and summarized within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. As of March 31, 2019, our management, is responsiblewith the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for establishingthe year ended December 31, 2018, and maintaining adequateas described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019.
Previously Reported Material Weakness
As reported in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of that date because of a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. We concluded that we had material weaknesses in our control environment and monitoring to support the financial reporting process. We specifically did not maintain effective management review controls over the monitoring and review of certain accounts; and management did not effectively design, document nor monitor (review, evaluate and assess) the key internal control activities that provide the accounting information contained in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Remediation Plans

We are committed to remediating the material weaknesses and, as such, implemented changes to our internal control over financial reporting. OurWe implemented additional procedures to address the underlying causes of the material weaknesses throughout 2018 and beyond, and continue to implement changes and improvements in our internal control system was designedover financial reporting to provide reasonable assuranceremediate the control deficiencies that caused the material weaknesses. We believe with full implementation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of the newly implemented and revised controls, the actions previously described in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 will successfully remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Management continues to report regularly to the Audit Committee regarding the reliabilitystatus of the implementation activities and progress.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as described above, there are no changes in our internal control over financial reporting andthat occurred during the preparationthree months ended March 31, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal Controls
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Management has used the 2013 framework set forth in the report entitled "Internal Control – Integrated Framework" published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations ("COSO") of the Treadway Commission to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Management had previously concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as further discussed below.  Management's remediation plans are also discussed below.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We had material weaknesses in our control environment and monitoring to support the financial reporting process.

The Company's control environment did not sufficiently promote effective internal control over financial reporting; specifically, the following factors relating to the control environment:

·Management did not maintain effective management review controls over the monitoring and review of certain accounts.

·Management did not effectively design, document nor monitor (review, evaluate and assess) the key internal control activities that provide the accounting information contained in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

We had material weaknesses related to information technology general controls ("ITGC").  We did not maintain effective ITGC, which are required to support automated controls and information technology ("IT") functionality; therefore, automated controls and IT functionality were ineffective.

Remediation Plans

During the second quarter of 2018, we engaged third party consultants to assist us with our efforts to design and maintain adequate and effective internal controls over financial reporting, to implement measures designed to improve our financial closing process and enhance certain internal controls, processes and procedures, including ITGC. Specifically, the Company will undertake the following steps to remediate the deficiencies underlying these material weaknesses:

·In connection with the remediation of the material weakness in our control activities, we will enhance our policies relating to the design, documentation, review, monitoring and approval of management review controls and other key internal control activities that provide the accounting information contained in our consolidated financial statements.
·To enhance our information technology controls, we will implement systems and processes in order to create an effective segregation of duties, restrict user access to applications and improve output controls.

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment, and believe that these remediation efforts represent significant improvements in our control environment. The identified material weaknesses in internal control will not be considered fully remediated until the internal controls over these areas have been in operation for a sufficient period of time for our management to test and conclude that the material weakness has been fully remediated. The Company will continue its efforts to implement and test the new controls in order to make this final determination.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as described above, there are no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2018 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
