Description: DSGR Distribution Solutions November 12, 2025
Distribution Solutions Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:DSGR) is a specialty distributor that serves MRO, OEM, and industrial-technology markets through four operating segments-Lawson, Gexpro Services, TestEquity, and the Canada Branch Division-providing everything from VMI and kitting to test-equipment and safety supplies across North America, Europe, the Pacific Rim and Latin America.
In FY 2023 the company generated roughly $1.2 billion in revenue, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of about 7 %, reflecting strong demand for its supply-chain-managed services in the renewable-energy and aerospace sectors. A key macro driver is the rebound in U.S. industrial production (IP index up ~4 % YoY) which fuels MRO spend, while tighter global logistics continue to elevate the value of DSGR’s VMI and kitting solutions. The Canada Branch Division contributed ~15 % of total sales, benefitting from higher construction activity and government infrastructure programs in Canada.
