Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (&amp;#8220;GAAP&amp;#8221;) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. The results of operations for the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;three and six&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; months ended &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;June&amp;#160;29, 2013&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; are generally not indicative of the results to be expected for any interim period or for the full year, primarily due to restructuring, acquisition and debt related activities or transactions. The &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;December&amp;#160;29, 2012&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; consolidated balance sheet has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company&amp;#8217;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;December&amp;#160;29, 2012&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; filed with the SEC.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;It is the Company&amp;#8217;s practice to close its fiscal quarters on the Saturday closest to the last day of the calendar quarter. The reporting periods for the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;three and six&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; months ended &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;June&amp;#160;29, 2013&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;June&amp;#160;30, 2012&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, each consisted of 13 weeks and 26 weeks, respectively.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;During the second quarter of 2013, the Company decided to exit the San Francisco market and closed a manufacturing facility within its print and envelope segment. As a result, beginning in the second quarter of 2013, the financial results of this manufacturing facility have been accounted for as discontinued operations resulting in the Company's historical condensed consolidated financial statements being reclassified to reflect these discontinued operations separately from the Company's continuing operations for all periods presented. See Note 3 for further discussion.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;New Accounting Pronouncements&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Effective in the first quarter of 2013, the Company adopted an accounting pronouncement relating to the presentation of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). This pronouncement does not change the current requirements; however, the Company is required to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component. In addition, the Company is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income (loss) is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by the respective line items of net income (loss), but only if the amount is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income (loss) in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income (loss), the Company is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail on these amounts. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</NonNumbericText><FootnoteIndexer /><CurrencyCode /><CurrencySymbol /><IsIndependantCurrency>false</IsIndependantCurrency><ShowCurrencySymbol>false</ShowCurrencySymbol><DisplayDateInUSFormat>false</DisplayDateInUSFormat></Cell></Cells><ElementDataType>nonnum:textBlockItemType</ElementDataType><SimpleDataType>na</SimpleDataType><ElementDefenition>The entire disclosure for the general note to the financial statements for the reporting entity which may include, descriptions of the basis of presentation, business description, significant accounting policies, consolidations, reclassifications, new pronouncements not yet adopted and changes in accounting principles.</ElementDefenition><ElementReferences>No definition available.</ElementReferences><IsTotalLabel>false</IsTotalLabel><UnitID>0</UnitID><Label>Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]</Label></Row></Rows><Footnotes /><IsEquityReport>false</IsEquityReport><ReportName>Basis of Presentation</ReportName><MonetaryRoundingLevel>UnKnown</MonetaryRoundingLevel><SharesRoundingLevel>UnKnown</SharesRoundingLevel><PerShareRoundingLevel>UnKnown</PerShareRoundingLevel><ExchangeRateRoundingLevel>UnKnown</ExchangeRateRoundingLevel><HasCustomUnits>true</HasCustomUnits><IsEmbedReport>false</IsEmbedReport><IsMultiCurrency>false</IsMultiCurrency><ReportType>Sheet</ReportType><RoleURI>http://www.cenveo.com/role/BasisOfPresentation</RoleURI><NumberOfCols>1</NumberOfCols><NumberOfRows>2</NumberOfRows></InstanceReport>
