    Company issues full-year 2016 guidance

“Despite a challenging demand environment, our continued focus on managing costs resulted in a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.2% in the quarter, a 50 basis point improvement from the same quarter last year,” said Thomas J. Quinlan III, RR Donnelley’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “For the full year, we achieved a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.7%, flat to full-year 2014, and generated $444 million in free cash flow. These results enabled us to reduce year-end total debt by $179 million and decrease our gross leverage ratio to 2.8x, just above the top end of our targeted range of 2.25x to 2.75x.”

Quinlan continued, “As we begin 2016, we remain focused on operational excellence, while also preparing for the spin offs of LSC Communications and Donnelley Financial Solutions, which we expect to complete in October.”

Net Sales

Net sales in the quarter were $2.9 billion, down $134.7 million, or 4.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2014. After adjusting for the impact of acquisitions and dispositions, as well as changes in foreign exchange rates and pass-through paper, organic sales decreased 2.8% from the fourth quarter of 2014, as increases in the International and Strategic Services segments only partially offset declines in the Variable Print and Publishing and Retail Services segments.

GAAP Earnings

Fourth-quarter 2015 net earnings attributable to common shareholders was $71.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $19.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014. The fourth-quarter net earnings attributable to common shareholders included pre-tax charges of $27.0 million and $143.6 million in 2015 and 2014, respectively, all of which are excluded from the presentation of non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common shareholders. Additional details regarding the amount and nature of these and other items are included in the attached schedules.

Non-GAAP Earnings

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2015 was $329.0 million, compared to $326.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin in the fourth quarter of 2015 was 11.2%, or 50 basis points higher than in the fourth quarter of 2014, as productivity improvements and lower variable compensation expense more than offset price pressure and volume declines.

Non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common shareholders totaled $101.0 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $105.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014. Reconciliations of net earnings attributable to common shareholders to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common shareholders are presented in the attached schedules.

Use of non-GAAP Information

This news release contains certain non-GAAP measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful because that information is an appropriate measure for evaluating the Company’s operating performance. Internally, the Company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance, and evaluates management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. These measures should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Use of Forward-Looking Statements

This news release includes certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the safe harbor created by, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to the business, strategy and plans of RR Donnelley and its expectations relating to future financial condition and performance. These statements include all of the items under the column labeled “2016 Guidance” in the table included under the “2016 Guidance” section. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about RR Donnelley management’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “aims,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “considered,” “likely,” “estimate” and variations of these words and similar future or conditional expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. While RR Donnelley believes these expectations,


RR DONNELLEY REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR 2015 RESULTS AND ISSUES FULL-YEAR 2016 GUIDANCE

Page 4 of 15

 

assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond RR Donnelley’s control. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend upon future circumstances that may or may not occur. Actual results may differ materially from RR Donnelley’s current expectations depending upon a number of factors affecting the business and risks associated with the performance of the business. These factors include such risks and uncertainties detailed in RRD’s periodic public filings with the SEC, including but not limited to those discussed under “Risk Factors” in RRD’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, those discussed under “Cautionary Statement” and “Other Information” in RRD’s quarterly Form 10-Q filings, and other filings with the SEC and in other investor communications of RRD from time to time. RR Donnelley does not undertake to and specifically declines any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

The Company believes that certain non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful because that information is an appropriate measure for evaluating the Company’s operating performance. Internally, the Company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance, and evaluates management’s effectiveness with specific reference to this indicator. These measures should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Liquidity does not include uncommitted credit facilities, located primarily outside of the U.S.
(2) Approximately 77% and 88% of cash as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, was located outside of the U.S. During 2016 and future years, the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are expected to make intercompany payments to the U.S. of approximately $175.0 million from foreign cash balances in satisfaction of intercompany obligations. Certain other cash balances of foreign subsidiaries may be subject to U.S. or local country taxes if repatriated to the U.S. In addition, repatriation of some foreign cash balances is further restricted by local laws.
(3) The Company has a $1.5 billion senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) which expires September 9, 2019. The Credit Agreement is subject to a number of covenants, including a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Leverage Ratio, both as defined and calculated in the Credit Agreement. There were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014. Based on the Company’s results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and existing debt, the Company would have had the ability to utilize $1.2 billion of the $1.5 billion Credit Agreement and not have been in violation of the terms of the agreement.
