Distribution Solutions Group Announces Commencement of Rights Offering

Distribution Solutions Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSGR) (“DSG” or the “Company”), a multi-platform specialty distribution company, announced today that it has commenced a subscription rights offering (“Rights Offering”) pursuant to which it intends to raise gross proceeds of up to approximately $100 million. The Company will distribute at no charge to holders of its common stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), as of the close of business on May 1, 2023 (the record date for the Rights Offering), one subscription right for each share of Common Stock held. Each subscription right entitles the holder to purchase 0.105 shares of Common Stock at a subscription price of $45.00 per share. The subscription rights are transferable, but will not be listed for trading on any stock exchange or market. In addition, holders of subscription rights who fully exercise their subscription rights are entitled to oversubscribe for additional shares of Common Stock, subject to proration.

The Rights Offering is expected to expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 30, 2023 (“Expiration Date”), subject to extension or earlier termination.

Luther King Capital Management Corporation and its affiliates, including J. Bryan King, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “LKCM Affiliates”), have indicated that they intend to participate, directly or through their affiliates, in the Rights Offering and fully subscribe to the shares of Common Stock corresponding to their subscription rights. The LKCM Affiliates have also indicated that they intend to fully exercise their over-subscription rights to purchase their proportion of the underlying securities related to the Rights Offering that remain unsubscribed at the Expiration Date.

Holders of subscription rights who hold their shares directly will receive a prospectus, a prospectus supplement, a letter from DSG describing the Rights Offering and a subscription rights certificate. Those holders who intend to exercise their subscription rights and over-subscription rights should review all of these materials, properly complete and execute the subscription rights certificates, and deliver the subscription rights certificates and full payment to Computershare, the subscription agent for the Rights Offering, at the address set forth in the prospectus supplement.

The Rights Offering is more fully described in the prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 9, 2023. A copy of the prospectus, prospectus supplement or further information with respect to the Rights Offering may be obtained by contacting Georgeson LLC, the information agent for the Rights Offering, at (888) 206-5970.
