EXPLANATORY NOTE
Pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Reg.
No. 333-53387) (the "Registration Statement"), DXP Enterprises, Inc., a Texas
corporation (the "Company"), registered (i) 1,955,000 units comprising
1,955,000 shares of its common stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), and
1,955,000 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the "Warrants"), (ii)
1,955,000 shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants, (iii)
170,000 underwriters warrants (the "Underwriters Warrants"), (iv) 170,000 shares
of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Underwriters Warrants, (v) 170,000
Warrants issuable on exercise of the Underwriters Warrants and (vi) 170,000
shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants underlying the
Underwriters Warrants, in connection with the offer of such Securities in
connection with an underwritten public offering. The Registration Statement was
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10,
1999. The Securities described in clauses (i) through (vi) of the immediately
preceding sentence are referred to collectively as the "Securities." None of the
Securities covered by the Registration Statement have been sold.
Due to the fact that present securities market conditions make a public
offering of the Securities covered by the Registration Statement impractical at
this time, pursuant to the undertaking in Item 17 of Part II of the Registration
Statement, the Company files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the
Registration Statement for the purpose of removing from registration all of the
Securities.
