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.
