DNOW Inc. (NYSE: DNOW) announced results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2023.

Financial Highlights

  • Cash provided by operating activities was $105 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $188 million for the full-year 2023
  • Revenue was $555 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Net income attributable to DNOW Inc. was $147 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, which included a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $126 million from the release of valuation allowances on deferred tax assets
  • Non-GAAP net income attributable to DNOW Inc. excluding other costs was $24 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • EBITDA excluding other costs was $44 million or 7.9% of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Cash and cash equivalents was $299 million and long-term debt was zero at December 31, 2023 with total liquidity of approximately $626 million

David Cherechinsky, President and CEO of DNOW, added, “I am excited by our strong fourth quarter finish, capping off another stellar year. In 2023, revenues grew $185 million, or 9%, while generating $184 million in EBITDA excluding other costs, a record performance since becoming a public company, or 7.9% of revenue. U.S. Process Solutions delivered significant full-year double-digit revenue growth in each of our Power Service, Odessa Pumps, Flex Flow and EcoVapor businesses. Adding to our impressive top-line increase, we produced $171 million in free cash flow, more than twice our original guidance provided last February, and we are targeting to generate $150 million in 2024.

I am thrilled about the agreement we reached to acquire Whitco Supply and believe this partnership will delight our customers, enhance earnings, free cash flow and shareholder value.

I want to thank the highly talented women and men of DNOW who have delivered these results and positioned our company to be the critical link in supplying the world’s evolving energy needs.”

Prior to the earnings conference call a presentation titled “DNOW Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Key Takeaways” will be available on the Company’s Investor Relations website.

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose various non-GAAP financial measures in our quarterly earnings press releases and other public disclosures. The non-GAAP financial measures include: (i) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding other costs, (ii) net income attributable to DNOW Inc. excluding other costs and (iii) diluted earnings per share attributable to DNOW Inc. stockholders excluding other costs. Each of these financial measures excludes the impact of certain other costs and therefore has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the schedules herein.

 

(2)

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the income retained by the noncontrolling party of a joint venture in our international segment which we consolidate into our financials as we are the primary beneficiary and controlling member.

 

(3)

Other includes certain income and expenses not included in stock-based compensation.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, Other of $3 million included approximately $2 million (included in warehousing, selling and administrative) related to legal fees for litigation matters that were not ordinary or routine to the operations of the business where the Company is seeking damages and transaction-related charges, as well as approximately $1 million (included in other income (expense)) related to settlements of the plan assets and benefit obligations of the Company's defined benefit pension plans.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Other of $9 million included approximately $8 million (included in warehousing, selling and administrative) related to legal fees for litigation matters that were not ordinary or routine to the operations of the business where the Company is seeking damages, and separation and transaction-related charges, as well as approximately $1 million (included in other income (expense)) related to settlements of the plan assets and benefit obligations of the Company's defined benefit pension plans.

 

(4)

EBITDA % excluding other costs is defined as EBITDA excluding other costs divided by Revenue.

 

Other, net of tax includes certain income and expenses and does not include stock-based compensation expense.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, Other, net of tax included a benefit of approximately $126 million from the release of valuation allowances recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets, partially offset by approximately $2 million (included in warehousing, selling and administrative) related to legal fees for litigation matters that were not ordinary or routine to the operations of the business where the Company is seeking damages and transaction-related charges, as well as approximately $1 million (included in other income (expense)) related to settlements of the plan assets and benefit obligations of the Company's defined benefit pension plans.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Other, net of tax included a benefit of approximately $149 million from the release of valuation allowances recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets, partially offset by approximately $8 million (included in warehousing, selling and administrative) related to legal fees for litigation matters that were not ordinary or routine to the operations of the business where the Company is seeking damages and separation and transaction-related charges, as well as approximately $1 million (included in other income (expense)) related to settlements of the plan assets and benefit obligations of the Company's defined benefit pension plans.

 

The Company has excluded the impact of these items on its valuation allowance in computing net income excluding other costs.
