DSGR Distribution Solutions Group, Inc.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
DSGR reported Q1 2026 revenue of $496.0M (+3.8% YoY), slightly above the $489.3M consensus, but GAAP EPS of $0.01 and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS of $0.24 both missed the $0.28 consensus estimate. Operating income fell 32.2% YoY to $13.6M and adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 140bps to 7.6%, with management citing tariff headwinds, sales mix shifts, and timing expenses as the primary drags.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
The Q1 miss extends a pattern of declining profitability — adjusted EPS has missed consensus in 4 of the last 4 quarters. With operating cash flow turning negative, net leverage rising to 3.8x, and no guidance provided, the stock faces continued pressure. Watch for any pre-announcement or Q2 update on tariff impact mitigation.
