Distribution Solutions Group Announces Closing of Rights Offering

Distribution Solutions Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSGR) (“DSG” or the “Company”), announced today the closing of its rights offering, which expired at 5:00 p.m. ET on May 30, 2023. Pursuant to the terms of the rights offering, 2,222,222 shares of common stock were purchased pursuant to the exercise of basic subscription rights and the over-subscription rights, which generated $100 million in gross proceeds to the Company.

Luther King Capital Management Corporation and its affiliates, including J. Bryan King, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “LKCM Affiliates”), exercised their basic subscription rights and over-subscription rights. Following the completion of the rights offering, the LKCM Affiliates may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of approximately 78% of the issued and outstanding common stock as of June 2, 2023.

DSG expects to use the proceeds from the rights offering for general corporate purposes and to fund, in combination with the Company’s expanded committed credit facility, the acquisition of HIS Company, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Hisco”).

Investors who participated in the rights offering should expect to see the shares of common stock issued to them in uncertificated book-entry form. Any excess over-subscription payments received by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “subscription agent”) will be returned by the subscription agent to investors, without interest or deduction, through the same method by which they participated in the rights offering.

The offering of common stock pursuant to the rights offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-270678).
