DNOW Inc.

Substantially all of the Company's revenue is recognized at a point in time once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Control is typically deemed to have been transferred to the customer when the product is shipped, delivered or picked up by the customer. The Company does not grant extended payment terms. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to proper government authorities. Shipping and handling costs for product shipments are recorded in cost of products.

The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for products sold. Revenue is recorded at the transaction price net of estimates of variable consideration, which may include product returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company accrues for variable consideration using the expected value method. Estimates of variable consideration are included in revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Amounts received for orders in advance of the customer obtaining control are deferred and revenue is not recognized until the performance obligations are satisfied. In some cases, particularly with third-party pipe shipments, the Company considers shipping and handling costs to be separate performance obligations, and as such, the Company records the revenue and cost of products when the performance obligation is fulfilled. While a small proportion of the Company's sales, the Company occasionally recognizes revenue under a bill and hold arrangement. Recognition of revenue on bill and hold arrangements occurs when control transfers to the customer provided that the reason for the bill and hold arrangement is substantive, the product is separately identified as belonging to the customer, ready for physical transfer and unavailable to be used or directed to another customer.
