HARDI Distributors Report 12.2 Percent Revenue Increase in February

Heating, Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI) released its monthly TRENDS report, showing average sales growth by HARDI distributor members increased by 12.2 percent in February 2019.

The average annualized sales growth for the 12 months through February 2019 is 11 percent.

“January and February are the slowest months of the year for HARDI distributors,” said HARDI Market Research & Benchmarking Analyst Brian Loftus. “2019 got off to a slow start but five of our seven economic regions reported double-digit sales gains in February.” February had the same number of billing days as the prior year but more heating degree days versus a mild February 2018.

"February sales came in strong despite being up against strong comps last year," said HARDI Economist Paul Hallmann. "Economic headwinds remain in place but softer comps should provide support for strong growth numbers to continue in March and April."

The Days Sales Outstanding (DSO), a measure of how quickly customers pay their bills, is near 50 days. “Until this year the DSO has remained at fairly consistent levels for each month of the year,” said Loftus. “January and February 2019 are at higher levels than the beginning of 2017 or 2018. It looks like another tile in the slowing economy mosaic.”

HARDI members do not receive financial compensation in exchange for their monthly sales data and can discontinue their participation without prior notice or penalty. Participation is voluntary, and the depth of market coverage varies from region to region. An independent entity collects and compiles the data that can include products not directly associated with the HVACR industry.
