“We had a very productive second quarter as we continued to execute on our ACE strategy, made further investments in growth initiatives and completed the strategic acquisition of Indoff in late May,” said Barry Litwin, CEO. “Total revenue benefited from the inclusion of Indoff, while organic performance reflects price deflation and a continuation of the cautious purchasing behavior within our small and medium business customer base’s manufacturing sector.”
