ACCO BRANDS CORPORATION REPORTS

FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2012 RESULTS

LINCOLNSHIRE, ILLINOIS, February 13, 2013 - ACCO Brands Corporation (NYSE: ACCO), a world leader in branded office products, today reported its fourth quarter results for the period ended December 31, 2012.

"We continued to execute well against our plans and paid down $200 million in debt, $75 million more than we had originally planned,” said Robert J. Keller, chairman and chief executive officer. “Our fourth-quarter and full-year performance has positioned us for strong earnings improvement in 2013.”

"The geographic and product diversity of the new ACCO Brands served us well in 2012," said Boris Elisman, president and chief operating officer. "Our acquisition of Mead Consumer and Office Products in May of 2012 gave us a platform that provides stability in mature markets and significant growth opportunities in developing markets. We will exceed our original cost synergy targets for the merger, and we expect revenue synergies to ramp up this year."

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales increased 51% to $529.7 million, compared to $350.7 million in the prior-year quarter, due to the merger with MeadWestvaco's Consumer & Office Products business (“Mead C&OP”). Loss from continuing operations was $11.0 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to income of $9.4 million, or $0.16 per share, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $42.3 million, or $0.37 per share, compared to adjusted income of $16.7 million, or $0.29 per share in the prior-year quarter using a normalized effective tax rate of 30% in both periods. The increase was due to the merger with Mead C&OP.

On a pro forma basis, including the results of Mead C&OP for the full quarter in both years, sales decreased 7%. Of this decline, volume/mix accounted for 6% and the negative impact of foreign currency accounted for 1%. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $42.3 million, or $0.37 per share, compared to adjusted income from continuing operations of $47.1 million, or $0.41 per share in the comparable prior-year period. The current quarter excludes $11.7 million of charges primarily for integration and restructuring costs and costs associated with the early extinguishment of debt. The prior-year quarter excludes $9.4 million of charges primarily for Mead corporate allocations. Both periods use a normalized effective tax rate of 30%.

Business Segment Highlights

ACCO Brands North America

ACCO Brands North America fourth quarter net sales increased 81% to $290.3 million, from $160.1 million in the prior-year quarter, due to the merger with Mead C&OP. Reported segment operating income increased to $36.1 million from $11.6 million in the prior-year quarter, due to the merger, partially offset by integration and restructuring charges.

On a pro forma basis, including the results of Mead C&OP in both periods, net sales decreased 5% to $290.3 million from $304.4 million in the comparable prior-year period. This decline was driven by lower volume/mix of 7%, mainly due to a decline in calendar sales and a shift to lower value products, partially offset by higher net pricing of 2%.

Adjusted pro forma operating income was $42.2 million, compared to $37.1 million in the prior-year quarter, and excludes $6.1 million of integration and restructuring charges in the current year and $1.1 million of Mead corporate allocations in the prior-year. The increase was due to lower obsolete inventory charges for the Mead business and higher pricing, which offset year-ago increases in raw material costs. Adjusted pro forma operating margin increased to 14.5% from 12.2%.

ACCO Brands International

ACCO Brands International net sales increased to $187.3 million from $136.5 million in the prior-year quarter due to the merger with Mead C&OP, partially offset by planned exits of low-margin products in the European business as well as the weak demand environment in Europe and Australia. Operating income increased to $30.1 million from $20.5 million in the prior-year quarter due to the merger with Mead C&OP, partially offset by the lower sales in Europe and Australia.

On a pro forma basis, including the results of Mead C&OP in both periods, net sales decreased 11% to $187.3 million from $210.3 million in the prior year. Of this decline, volume/mix accounted for 7% and negative foreign exchange accounted for 4%. The decline in volume was primarily due to planned exits of low-margin products in the European business as well as the weak demand environment and lower pricing in Europe and Australia.

Adjusted pro forma operating income was $30.2 million, compared to $38.8 million in the prior-year quarter, and excludes charges of $0.1 million in the current year. Adjusted pro forma operating margin decreased to 16.1% from 18.4%. The decline in profit and margin was driven by lower sales volumes and pricing in Australia, along with the weak demand environment in Europe and $1.8 million in negative foreign exchange.

Computer Products Group

Computer Products net sales decreased 4% to $52.1 million, compared to $54.1 million in the prior-year quarter. Pricing unfavorably impacted sales by 4%. Included in pricing was a 2% impact due to the loss of $0.8 million of royalties. Volume/mix increased 1% due to new product introductions of accessories for tablets and smartphones, partially offset by lower sales of PC accessories, particularly high-margin security products. Adjusted operating income was $10.7 million, compared to $13.6 million in the prior-year quarter, and operating margin decreased to 20.5% from 25.1%. The decline in operating income and margin was primarily due to lower net pricing and lower royalties.

Twelve Month Results

Net sales increased 33% to $1.76 billion, compared to $1.32 billion in the prior-year twelve-month period, due to the merger with Mead C&OP. Income from continuing operations was $121.1 million, or $1.26 per share, compared to income of $18.6 million, or $0.32 per share, in the prior-year period. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $97.6 million, or $1.02 per share, compared to adjusted income of $36.9 million, or $0.64 per share using a normalized effective tax rate of 30%. The increase was due to the merger with Mead C&OP.

On a pro forma basis, including the results of Mead C&OP for the full twelve months, sales decreased 8%, more than half of which was due to declines in Europe and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates. Of the total decline, 7% was a decline in volume/mix, driven similarly by both the legacy ACCO Brands and the legacy Mead businesses. Unfavorable foreign currency translation of 2% offset higher pricing of 1%. Adjusted pro forma income from continuing operations was $93.7 million, or $0.82 per share, compared to $116.3 million, or $1.03 per share, in the comparable prior-year period. The decline was driven by lower sales. The current-year period excludes $48.9 million of restructuring charges, Mead corporate allocations, inventory step-up, and transaction and integration charges. The prior-year period excludes $38.4 million of Mead corporate allocations, inventory step-up, and transaction charges. Both periods use a normalized effective tax rate of 30%.

Restructuring

The company expects $25 million of additional restructuring charges and $4 million of additional IT-related integration charges in 2013, of which approximately $4 million are non-cash charges. These charges relate to cost-reduction initiatives in the company's European and North American operations and are associated with the completion of the Mead integration and productivity initiatives. The cash component of the charge will approximate $19 million in 2013 and $6 million in 2014.

Business Outlook

For 2013 the company expects adjusted earnings per share growth of 16% to 28%, resulting in a range of $0.95 to $1.05. The mid-point of the range assumes modest pro forma revenue growth, including sales synergies, and earnings improvement that is primarily driven by the realization of cost synergies and productivity improvements. The company expects to generate free cash flow of approximately $150 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis in this earnings release, we provide investors with certain non-GAAP measures, including “adjusted,” “adjusted pro forma,” and “adjusted supplemental EBITDA” financial measures. See our Reconciliation of Adjusted Results, Supplemental Business Segment Information and Reconciliation, Reconciliation of Adjusted Pro Forma Results, and Reconciliation of Pro Forma Operating Income to Adjusted Supplemental

EBITDA for a description of each of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure for each of the periods presented herein. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future, as well as to facilitate comparisons with our historical operating results. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of our underlying operational results and trends. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside our core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods.

There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements which may constitute "forward-looking" statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, are made as of the date hereof and the company assumes no obligation to update them. The company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Because actual results may differ from those predicted by such forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on them when deciding to buy, sell or hold the company's securities. Among the factors that could cause our plans, actions and results to differ materially from current expectations are: fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials; competition within the markets in which the company operates; the effects of both general and extraordinary economic, political and social conditions, including any volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets; our continued ability to access the capital and credit markets; the liquidity and solvency of our major customers; the effect of consolidation in the office products industry; the dependence of the company on certain suppliers of manufactured products; the risk that targeted cost savings and synergies from business combinations may not be fully realized or take longer to realize than expected; future goodwill and/or impairment charges; foreign exchange rate fluctuations; the development, introduction and acceptance of new products; the degree to which higher raw material costs and freight and distribution costs can be passed on to customers through selling price increases and the effect on sales volumes as a result thereof; increases in health care,

pension and other employee welfare costs; the risk that anticipated cost savings, growth opportunities and other financial and operating benefits as a result of our recent acquisition of the Mead C&OP Business may not be realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the risk that benefits from our acquisition of the Mead C&OP Business may be significantly offset by costs incurred in integrating the companies; potential adverse impacts from incurring additional indebtedness in connection with our acquisition of the Mead C&OP Business; and potential difficulties in connection with the process of integrating the Mead C&OP Business with the company, which potential difficulties include, but are not limited to, coordinating geographically separate organizations, integrating business cultures, which could prove to be incompatible, difficulties and costs of integrating information technology systems, and potential difficulty in retaining key officers and personnel. These and other risks are more fully described under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, and in other reports we file with the SEC.

A.	The results of Mead C&OP are included in the company's results from the acquisition date of May 1, 2012.


B.	“Adjusted” results exclude all unusual tax items, restructuring charges and transaction-related integration expenses associated with the acquisition of Mead C&OP and the impairment of our Neschen joint venture in order to provide a comparison of underlying results of operations.


1.	Represents the adjustment related to the amortization of step-up in value of finished goods inventory.


2.	Represents the elimination of transaction and integration costs.


3.	Represents 2012 restructuring costs.


4.	Represents the adjustment related to accelerated debt origination amortization costs resulting from bond repurchases and bank debt repayments.


5.	Represents the adjustment related to the impairment charge for our Neschen joint venture.


6.	Represents the adjustment related to the loss on debt extinguishment and other costs associated with the company's refinancing in the second quarter of 2012 and the premium paid in connection with bond repurchases in the third quarter of 2011.

For the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily represents the reversal of the income tax benefit from the third quarter of 2012 related to the lower than expected effective tax rate on continuing operations that was the result of lower effective tax rates on foreign earnings than was anticipated at the end of the second quarter. For the full year 2012 primarily represents the reversal of the release of income tax valuation reserves for the company's U.S. operations in the first half of 2012. The company has also incurred significant operating losses in several jurisdictions in prior periods. In accordance with GAAP, tax valuation allowances have been recorded on certain of the company's deferred tax assets. As a result, the operating results in these locations have recorded no tax benefit or expense, which results in a high effective tax rate for the prior-year period. Assuming all the locations become profitable in the future and valuation allowances were reversed, the company's effective tax rate would approximate 30% in 2011 and 2012. This estimated long-term rate will be subject to variations from the mix of earnings in the company's operating jurisdictions.

Notes for Reported and Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Continuing Operations and Reconciliation of Adjusted Reported and Pro Forma Results

The unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of the company and the Mead C&OP business for the periods presented as though the companies had been combined as of January 1, 2011, but the company cautions that the unaudited pro forma financial information is not indicative of the actual results of operations that would have been achieved if the transaction had taken place at the beginning of 2011 and do not purport to project the future operating results of the combined company. Refer to the 8-K furnished to the SEC on August 9, 2012 for a reconciliation of pro forma results to GAAP for the periods of January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. The pro forma results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 include the pro forma results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 plus the reported results of the six months ended December 31, 2012.


B.	“Adjusted” results exclude all unusual tax items, restructuring, integration and transaction charges and Mead C&OP parent allocations, net, including interest, which will not continue as part of the combined ACCO Brands in order to provide a comparison of underlying results of operations.


1.	Represents the adjustment related to amortization of step-up in value of finished goods inventory and Mead C&OP parent allocations, net.


2.	Represents the adjustment related to Mead C&OP parent allocations, net, and integration and transaction charges.


3.	Represents 2012 restructuring costs.


4.	Represents the adjustments related to Mead C&OP net interest expense and accelerated debt origination amortization costs resulting from bond repurchases and bank debt repayments.


5.	Represents the adjustment related to the impairment charge for our Neschen joint venture.

The company has incurred significant operating losses in several jurisdictions in prior periods. In accordance with GAAP, tax valuation allowances have been recorded on certain of the company's deferred tax assets. As a result, the operating results in these locations have recorded no tax benefit or expense, which results in a high effective tax rate for the prior-year period. Assuming all the locations become profitable in the future and valuation allowances were reversed, the company's effective tax rate would approximate 30% in 2011 and 2012. This estimated long-term rate will be subject to variations from the mix of earnings in the company's operating jurisdictions.

Refer to the Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on August 9, 2012 for details on Mead C&OP pre-acquisition operating income and pro forma adjustments for the periods of January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. The pro forma results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 include the pro forma results for the six moths ended June 30, 2012 plus the reported results of the six months ended December 31, 2012.

(A) Adjusted results exclude restructuring charges (in 2012 only) and transaction-related expenses, MWV parent allocations (which will not continue in the ongoing entity and include LIFO expense in cost of products sold, corporate costs and gain on property sales in SG&A) and amortization of the step-up in the fair value of finished goods inventory.
(B) Following the acquisition of Mead C&OP, the business determined that it would be more cost effective to outsource its information technology support environment. During second quarter of 2012 the company incurred and reported $0.7 million of charges associated with this transition. The above results have been subsequently restated to adjust these charges.
