Electrical, communications and data networking products distributor Graybar, St. Louis, Missouri, reported 2020 sales of $7.3 billion, a 3.4% decrease compared to the previous year. Net income of $121.8 million marked a 15.7% decrease compared to 2019, primarily due to a non-cash pension settlement charge of $27.7 million that the company recognized in 2020.
