R.R. DONNELLEY & SONS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (“RR DONNELLEY”)

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “RR Donnelley”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on February 25, 2015. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Proposed Spinoff Transactions

On August 4, 2015, the Company announced that its Board of Directors intends to create three independent public companies: (i) a financial communications services company (the “Financial Services Company”), (ii) a publishing and retail-centric print services company (the “Publishing and Retail Services Company”), and (iii) a multichannel communications management company (the “Multichannel Communications Management Company”). The Financial Services Company is expected to consist of the Company’s current financial reporting unit of the Company’s Strategic Services segment. The Publishing and Retail Services Company is expected to consist of the Company’s current Publishing and Retail Services segment as well as the office products reporting unit from the Company’s Variable Print segment, the Europe reporting unit of the Company’s International segment and certain Mexican operations currently within the Latin America reporting unit of the Company’s International segment. The Multichannel Communications Management Company is expected to consist of the current Variable Print segment except for the office products reporting unit that will become part of the Publishing and Retail Services Company, the logistics, sourcing, and digital and creative solutions reporting units within the current Strategic Services segment, and the current International segment except for the Europe reporting unit and certain Mexican operations that will become part of the Publishing and Retail Services Company. The transaction is expected to take the form of a tax-free distribution to RR Donnelley shareholders of shares of stock in two new, independent, publicly traded companies, the Financial Services Company and the Publishing and Retail Services Company. Immediately following the completion of the transactions existing RR Donnelley shareholders will own shares in all three companies.

The transactions are subject to customary conditions, including obtaining rulings from the Internal Revenue Service and/or tax opinions, execution of inter-company agreements and final approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included net sales of $109.0 million and a loss before income taxes of $23.9 million related to the Courier acquisition, including restructuring, impairment and other charges of $29.3 million and a charge of $9.9 million resulting from an inventory purchase accounting adjustment.  

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded $0.3 million and $14.1 million of acquisition-related expenses, respectively, associated with acquisitions completed or contemplated, within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Courier acquisition was recorded by allocating the cost of the acquisition to the assets acquired, including other intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.  The excess of the cost over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise as a result of the acquisition.  

The tax deductible goodwill related to acquisitions, primarily Courier, was $9.3 million.

Based on the valuations, the final purchase price allocation for 2015 acquisitions was as follows:

2015 Dispositions

On April 29, 2015, the Company sold its 50.1% interest in its Venezuelan operating entity. The proceeds were de minimis, and the sale resulted in a net loss of $14.7 million, which was recognized in net investment and other expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company’s Venezuelan operations had net sales of $16.3 million and a loss before income taxes of $38.4 million, including the net loss as a result of the sale, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and net sales of $81.7 million and earnings before income taxes of $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

2014 Acquisitions

On March 25, 2014, the Company acquired substantially all of the North American operations of Esselte Corporation (“Esselte”), a developer and manufacturer of nationally branded and private label office and stationery products. The acquisition, combined with the Company’s existing products, created a more competitive and efficient office products supplier capable of supplying enhanced offerings across the combined customer base. The purchase price for Esselte included $82.3 million in cash and 1.0 million shares of RR Donnelley common stock, or a total transaction value of $100.6 million based on the Company’s closing share price on March 24, 2014. Esselte had $6.4 million of cash as of the date of acquisition. Esselte’s operations are included in the Variable Print segment.

On March 10, 2014, the Company acquired the assets of MultiCorpora R&D Inc. and MultiCorpora International Inc. (together “MultiCorpora”) for approximately $6.0 million.  MultiCorpora is an international provider of translation technology solutions. The acquisition of MultiCorpora expanded the capabilities of the Company’s translation services offering which supports clients’ multi-lingual communications. MultiCorpora’s operations are included in the Strategic Services segment.  

On January 31, 2014, the Company acquired Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (“Consolidated Graphics”), a provider of digital and commercial printing, fulfillment services, print management and proprietary Internet-based technology solutions, with operations in North America, Europe and Asia. The acquisition enhanced the Company’s ability to provide integrated communications solutions for its customers. The purchase price for Consolidated Graphics was $359.9 million in cash and 16.0 million shares of RR Donnelley common stock, or a total transaction value of $660.6 million based on the Company’s closing share price on January 30, 2014, plus the assumption of Consolidated Graphics’ debt of $118.4 million. Consolidated Graphics had $62.0 million of cash as of the date of acquisition. Immediately following the acquisition, the Company repaid substantially all of the debt assumed.  Consolidated Graphics’ operations are included in the Variable Print segment, with the exception of operations in the Czech Republic and Japan which are included in the International segment.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded $8.2 million of acquisition-related expenses associated with acquisitions completed or contemplated within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.  Acquisition-related expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 were de minimis.

The Esselte, MultiCorpora and Consolidated Graphics acquisitions were recorded by allocating the cost of the acquisitions to the assets acquired, including other intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.  The excess of the cost of the MultiCorpora and Consolidated Graphics acquisitions over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill associated with these acquisitions is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise as a result of the acquisitions.   

For Esselte, the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired of approximately $110.1 million exceeded the purchase price of $100.6 million, resulting in a bargain purchase gain of $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was recorded in net investment and other expense. The gain on the bargain purchase was primarily attributable to the Company’s ability to utilize certain tax operating losses.  

The tax deductible goodwill related to the Consolidated Graphics, Esselte and MultiCorpora acquisitions was $73.4 million.
