DNOW Inc. posted $1.34 billion in third-quarter revenue, more than doubling the previous third quarter, and reported $26 million in net income. The company also repurchased $17 million of its common stock during the quarter.

Why it matters

The results mark a shift from net losses in the first two full quarters following the MRC Global acquisition to profitability in the third quarter. The figures reflect the company's expanded scale after the deal.

DNOW reported $33 million in operating profit and $265 million in gross profit in the third quarter, while repurchasing $92 million of stock through the first three quarters under a $160 million program. The filing does not address how much of the revenue increase came from the MRC Global acquisition versus underlying growth.
