David R. Little, Chairman and CEO, remarked, "We are pleased with the second quarter performance. Total DXP revenue of $256.2 million for the second quarter was up 1.0 percent sequentially. We feel strongly that our sales team is taking market share as we continue to battle volatility in our industrial markets. We appreciate the continued hard work of our DXPeople and the support of our suppliers during these tough economic times. We managed expenses tightly in the quarter given the continued low sales volume. During the second quarter sales were $161.8 million for Service Centers, $54.4 million for Innovative Pumping Solutions and $40.0 million for Supply Chain Services. The market continues to show volatility and remains uncertain but we are responding by aggressively removing costs and improving operations. Our goal is to take market share, manage working capital, capital expenditures and cash flow in order to maximize our return on invested capital for our shareholders. Despite the challenging environment, we remain confident in our future and the opportunities ahead for DXP. With the work we have done and continue to do in terms of managing costs, aligning the business and strategically positioning our product segments, DXP is poised for the earnings leverage and sales growth that we are accustomed to delivering once the market turns."

Mac McConnell, CFO, added, "Diluted earnings per share during the second quarter was $0.34. This was the result of sequential improvement on the gross margin line and significant reductions within selling, general and administrative expenses. Gross margins improved 81 basis points sequentially, despite the challenging market environment. Selling, general and administrative expenses declined significantly year-over-year due to our focus on managing costs and maximizing our sales efforts to grow. Free cash flow for the quarter was $17.7 million. As we move forward, we will keep our focus on costs and maintaining and improving cash flow."
