In addition, holders of subscription rights who fully exercised their subscription rights were entitled to oversubscribe for additional shares of DSG common stock, subject to proration.

At the closing of the Mergers, each outstanding share of TestEquity and Gexpro Services common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Mergers was converted into approximately 0.3618 shares and 0.7675 shares, respectively, of DSG common stock, based on the ratio of outstanding shares of each entity immediately prior to the Mergers to the number of shares of DSG common stock acquired in the Mergers.
Completion of the TestEquity Merger
On April 1, 2022 (the "Merger Date"), the TestEquity Merger was consummated pursuant to the TestEquity Merger Agreement. In accordance with the TestEquity Merger Agreement, Merger Sub 1 merged with and into TestEquity, with TestEquity surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of DSG.
In accordance with and under the terms of the TestEquity Merger Agreement, in connection with the closing of the TestEquity Merger on the Merger Date, DSG: (i) issued to the TestEquity Equityholder 3,300,000 shares of DSG common stock, (ii) on behalf of TestEquity, paid certain indebtedness of TestEquity and (iii) on behalf of TestEquity, paid certain transaction expenses of TestEquity.
The TestEquity Merger Agreement provided that up to an additional 700,000 shares of DSG common stock would be potentially issuable to the TestEquity Equityholder in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the earnout provisions of the TestEquity Merger Agreement. On March 20, 2023, DSG issued 700,000 shares of DSG common stock to the TestEquity Equityholder (the "TestEquity Holdback Shares") pursuant to the terms of the earnout provisions of the TestEquity Merger Agreement. The TestEquity Holdback Shares issued represented the maximum number of additional shares that could be issued under the TestEquity Merger Agreement, and no further shares are available for issuance, and no additional shares will be issued, in connection with the TestEquity Merger Agreement. Refer to Note 8 – Earnout Liabilities for information about the earnout derivative liability related to the TestEquity Holdback Shares.
Completion of the Gexpro Services Merger
On the Merger Date, the Gexpro Services Merger was consummated pursuant to the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement. In accordance with the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement, Merger Sub 2 merged with and into Gexpro Services, with Gexpro Services surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of DSG.

On March 20, 2023, DSG issued 1,000,000 shares of DSG
common stock to the Gexpro Services Stockholder (the “Gexpro Services Holdback Shares”) pursuant to the terms of the earnout provisions of the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement.

As of April 1, 2022, approximately 538,000 of the Gexpro Services Holdback Shares had been expected to be issued under the first earnout opportunity in the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement based on certain earnout metrics related to the consummation of certain additional acquisitions which were completed prior to the Merger Date. Under the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement, if any Gexpro Services Holdback Shares remained after the calculation of the first earnout opportunity, there was a second earnout opportunity under the Gexpro Services Merger Agreement based on certain earnout performance metrics. On March 20, 2023, all 1,000,000 Gexpro Services Holdback Shares were issued under the earnout opportunities. The incremental 462,000 Gexpro Services Holdback Shares that were issued in excess of the 538,000 Gexpro Services Holdback Shares that were originally expected to be issued had been remeasured at fair value immediately prior to and reclassified to equity at December 31, 2022. Refer to Note 8 – Earnout Liabilities for information about the earnout derivative liability related to the Gexpro Services Holdback Shares.
Accounting for the Mergers
TestEquity and Gexpro Services were treated as a combined entity as the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and DSG was identified as the accounting acquiree. Accordingly, periods prior to the April 1, 2022 Merger Date reflect the results of operations of TestEquity and Gexpro Services on a consolidated basis, and the results of operations of DSG's legacy Lawson business are only included subsequent to the April 1, 2022 Merger Date.
For more information about the Mergers, refer to Note 3 – Business Acquisitions.
Nature of Operations
A summary of the nature of operations for each of DSG's operating companies is presented below. Information regarding DSG's reportable segments is presented in Note 16 – Segment Information.
Lawson is a distributor of specialty products and services to the industrial, commercial, institutional and government maintenance, repair and operations market.
TestEquity is a distributor of test and measurement equipment and solutions, industrial and electronic production supplies, vendor managed inventory programs, converting, fabrication and adhesive solutions from its leading manufacturer partners supporting the technology, aerospace, defense, automotive, electronics, education, automotive and medical industries.
Gexpro Services is a global supply chain solutions provider, specializing in developing and implementing vendor managed inventory ("VMI") and kitting programs to high-specification manufacturing customers.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The Mergers were accounted for as a reverse merger under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the accounting guidance for reverse acquisitions as provided in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"). Under this guidance, TestEquity and Gexpro Services were treated as a combined entity as the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and DSG was identified as the accounting acquiree. This determination was primarily made as TestEquity and Gexpro Services were under the common control of an entity that owns a majority of the voting rights of the combined entity, and therefore, only DSG experienced a change in control. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 reflect the results of operations of TestEquity and Gexpro Services on a consolidated basis, and the results of operations of DSG's legacy Lawson business are only included subsequent to the April 1, 2022 Merger Date. The combined operations of all three entities are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three months ended June 30, 2022. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflect the financial position of TestEquity, Gexpro Services and DSG's legacy Lawson business on a consolidated basis.
The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, except for Gexpro Services, operate on a calendar year-end. Gexpro Services operates on a calendar year-end for annual reporting purposes. However, quarterly financial statements for Gexpro Services are prepared on financial close dates that may differ from that of the Company. The consolidated financial statement impact of the one day difference arising from the different period ends for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was not material.
The Company utilizes the exchange rates in effect at Gexpro Services’ reporting date and the appropriate weighted-average rate for its fiscal reporting period.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of DSG have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not contain all disclosures required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with DSG's audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Lawson Products, Inc. unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in DSG’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022. All normal recurring adjustments have been made that are necessary to fairly state the results of operations for the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There were no significant changes to the Company's accounting policies from those disclosed in DSG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. See Note 2 of the 2022 consolidated financial statements included in DSG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for further details of the Company's significant accounting policies.
Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which revises the requirements for how an entity should measure credit losses on financial instruments. The pronouncement was effective for smaller reporting companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and the new guidance will be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023. The adoption had no material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The pronouncement is effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023. The adoption had no impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows and will be applied to business combinations on or after the adoption date.
Note 3 – Business Acquisitions
Combination with TestEquity and Gexpro Services
On April 1, 2022, the Mergers with TestEquity and Gexpro Services were completed via all-stock merger transactions. Pursuant to the Merger Agreements, DSG issued an aggregate of 10.3 million shares of DSG common stock on April 1, 2022 to the former owners of TestEquity and Gexpro Services. On March 20, 2023, an additional 1.7 million shares of DSG common stock were issued. Refer to Note 1 – Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation for further information regarding the Mergers.
The business combination of Lawson, TestEquity and Gexpro Services combines three value-added complementary distribution businesses. Lawson is a distributor of products and services to the industrial, commercial, institutional, and governmental MRO marketplace. TestEquity is a distributor of parts and services to the industrial, commercial, institutional and governmental electronics manufacturing and test and measurement market. Gexpro Services is a provider of supply chain solutions, specializing in developing and implementing VMI and kitting programs to high-specification manufacturing customers. Gexpro Services provides critical products and services to customers throughout the lifecycle of highly technical OEM products. Refer to Note 1 – Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation for more information on the nature of operations for these businesses.
The Mergers were accounted for as a reverse merger under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations, whereby TestEquity and Gexpro Services were identified as the accounting acquirers and were treated as a combined entity for financial reporting purposes, and DSG was identified as the accounting acquiree. Accordingly, under the
acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price was allocated to DSG's tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated acquisition-date fair values. These estimates were determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques.
Allocation of Consideration Exchanged
Under the acquisition method of accounting, the estimated consideration exchanged was calculated as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| |
(in thousands, except share data) | | April 1, 2022 |
Number of DSG common shares | | 9,120,167 |
DSG common stock closing price per share on March 31, 2022 | | $ | 38.54 | |
Fair value of shares exchanged | | $ | 351,491 | |
| | |
Other consideration(1) | | 1,910 | |
| | |
Total consideration exchanged | | $ | 353,401 | |
(1)Fair value adjustment of stock-based compensation awards.
Due to the publicly traded nature of shares of DSG common stock, the equity issuance of shares of DSG common stock based on this value was considered to be a more reliable measurement of the fair market value of the transaction compared to the equity interests of the accounting acquirer.
The allocation of consideration exchanged to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on estimated fair values as of the Merger Date. The accounting for the Mergers was complete as of December 31, 2022. Goodwill generated from the Mergers is not deductible for tax purposes.
The following table summarizes the allocation of consideration exchanged to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Merger Date after applying measurement period adjustments:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | | | | | Final Purchase Price Allocation | | |

| | | | | | | | |
The allocation of consideration exchanged to other intangible assets acquired was as follows:

Other Acquisitions
DSG and its operating companies acquired other businesses during the first six months of 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022. The acquisitions were accounted for under ASC 805, the acquisition method of accounting. For each acquisition, the allocation of consideration exchanged to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on estimated acquisition-date fair values.
Purchase of HIS Company, Inc.
On June 8, 2023, DSG acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Hisco, a distributor of specialty products serving industrial technology applications, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement dated March 30, 2023.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $2.3 million was recorded as compensation expense over the service period for the retention bonuses as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
DSG funded the Hisco Transaction using a combination of its 2023 Credit Agreement and proceeds raised from the Rights Offering. Refer to Note 9 – Debt for information about the 2023 Credit Agreement and Note 11 – Stockholders' Equity for details on the Rights Offering.

Certain estimated values for the Hisco Transaction, including the valuation of intangibles, property, plant and equipment, contingent consideration, and income taxes (including deferred taxes and associated valuation allowances), are not yet finalized, and the preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change as the Company completes its analysis of the fair value at the date of acquisition. The final valuation will be completed within the one-year measurement period following the acquisition date, and any adjustments will be recorded in the period in which the adjustments are determined.
The customer relationships and trade names intangibles assets have estimated useful lives of 12 years and 8 years, respectively. As a result of the Hisco Transaction, the Company recorded tax deductible goodwill of $39.8 million in 2023 that may result in a tax benefit in future periods and is primarily attributable to the benefits we expect to derive from expected synergies including expanded product and service offerings and cross-selling opportunities.

Note 4 – Revenue Recognition
Under the definition of a contract as defined by ASC 606, the Company considers contracts to be created at the time an order to purchase product and services is agreed upon regardless of whether there is a written contract. Revenue from customers is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied; this generally occurs with the delivery of products or services. Revenue from customers is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the delivery of products or services. Contracts may last from one month to one year or more and may have renewal terms that extend indefinitely at the option of either party. Price is typically based on market conditions, competition, changes in the industry and product availability. Volumes fluctuate primarily as a result of customer demand and product availability. Consistent with the way the Company manages its businesses, the Company refers to sales under service agreements, which includes both products (such as parts, equipment and equipment upgrades) and related services (such as monitoring, maintenance and repairs) as sales of “services,” which is an important part of the Company’s operations. The Company has no significant financing components in its contracts with customers. The Company records revenue net of certain taxes, such as sales taxes, that are assessed by governmental authorities on the Company’s customers.
The Company also operates as a lessor and recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of each lease. The Company has adopted the practical expedient not to separate the non-lease components that would be within the scope of ASC 606 from the associated lease component as the relevant criteria under ASC 842 are met.
The Company does not incur significant costs to obtain contracts. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expenses. Sales of products and services to customers are invoiced and settled on a monthly basis. ASC 606 requires an entity to present a contract liability in instances where the customer is entitled to a volume rebate based on purchases made during the period. The Company is not usually subject to obligations for warranties, rebates, returns or refunds except in the case of rebates for select customers if predetermined purchase thresholds are met as discussed for the TestEquity segment below. The Company does not typically receive payment in advance of satisfying its obligations under the terms of its
sales contracts with customers; therefore, liabilities related to such payment are not significant to the Company. Accounts receivable represents the Company’s unconditional right to receive consideration from its customers.
Lawson Segment
The Lawson segment has two distinct performance obligations offered to its customers: a product performance obligation and a service performance obligation, and accordingly, two separate revenue streams. Although Lawson has identified that it offers its customers both a product and a service obligation, the customer only receives one invoice per transaction with no price allocation between these obligations. Lawson does not price its offerings based on any allocation between these obligations.
Lawson generates revenue primarily from the sale of MRO products to its customers. Revenue related to product sales is recognized at the time that control of the product has been transferred to the customer; either at the time the product is shipped or the time the product has been received by the customer. Lawson does not commit to long-term contracts to sell customers a certain minimum quantity of products.
Lawson offers a VMI service proposition to its customers. A portion of these services, primarily related to stocking of product and maintenance of the MRO inventory, is provided over a short period of time after control of the purchased product has been transferred to the customer. Since certain obligations pursuant to the VMI service agreement have not been provided at the time the control of the product transfers to the customer, that portion of expected consideration is deferred until the time that those services have been provided and the related performance obligations have been satisfied.
TestEquity Segment
TestEquity’s contracts with customers generally represent a single performance obligation to sell its products. Revenue from contracts with customers reflect the transaction prices for contracts reduced by variable consideration. TestEquity provides a rebate to select customers if pre-determined purchase thresholds are met. The rebate consideration is not in exchange for a distinct product or service. Variable consideration is estimated using the expected-value method considering all reasonably available information, including TestEquity’s historical experience and current expectations, and is reflected in the transaction price when sales are recorded. Sales returns are generally accepted by TestEquity; however, sales returns are not material to the Company’s operations. TestEquity provides an assurance type warranty which is not sold separately and does not represent a separate performance obligation.
TestEquity generates revenue from contracts with customers through the sale of new and used electronic test and measurement products, industrial and electronic production supplies, and adhesive solutions. Typically, TestEquity has a purchase order or master service agreement with the customer that specifies the products and/or services to be provided. TestEquity generally invoices customers as products are shipped. Payment terms on invoiced amounts are typically due and payable 30 days after the date of shipment. Generally, customers gain control of the products upon providing the product to the carrier, or when services are completed. For the majority of transactions, TestEquity recognizes revenue at the time of shipment, when control passes to the customer. For consigned inventory, revenue is recognized when inventory is removed from TestEquity’s stock location and control passes to the customer.
Gexpro Services Segment
Gexpro Services’ contracts with customers generally represent a single performance obligation to sell its products. Revenue from sales of Gexpro Services’ products is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which is typically when the product has been shipped from its distribution facilities. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which Gexpro Services expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring products to the customer. Revenue is recorded based on the transaction price, which includes fixed consideration and an estimate of variable consideration such as, early payment/volume discounts and rebates. The amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price is constrained and is included only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
Gexpro Services’ products are marketed and sold primarily to original equipment manufacturers globally. Sales of products are subject to economic conditions and may fluctuate based on changes in the industry, trade policies and financial markets. Payment terms on invoiced amounts range from 10 to 120 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of the right to invoice, the Company has determined that a significant financing component does not exist.
