(1)

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose various non-GAAP financial measures in our quarterly earnings press releases and other public disclosures. The non-GAAP financial measures include: (i) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding other costs, (ii) net income attributable to DNOW Inc. excluding other costs and (iii) diluted earnings per share attributable to DNOW Inc. stockholders excluding other costs. Each of these financial measures excludes the impact of certain other costs and therefore has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the schedules herein.

(2)

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the income retained by the noncontrolling party of a joint venture in our international segment which we consolidate into our financials as we are the primary beneficiary and controlling member.

(3)

Other includes certain income and expenses and does not include stock-based compensation expense.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, Other was primarily related to transaction-related charges, of which approximately $1 million and $3 million, respectively, were included in warehousing, selling and administrative, and approximately $4 million and $5 million, respectively, were included in cost of products. Transaction-related charges include transaction costs, inventory fair value step-up, retention bonus accruals and integration expenses associated with acquisitions.

(4)

EBITDA % excluding other costs is defined as EBITDA excluding other costs divided by Revenue.

(5)

Other, net of tax includes certain income and expenses and does not include stock-based compensation expense.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, Other, net of tax, included approximately $4 million and $6 million, respectively, related to transaction-related charges.

(6)

Totals may not foot due to rounding.
