Reaffirms full-year 2024 financial guidance, including 1.8x Net Debt Leverage by year end
Quad/Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: QUAD) (“Quad” or the “Company”), a global marketing experience company, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Recent Highlights
Joel Quadracci, Chairman, President and CEO of Quad, said: “Our first quarter results were in-line with our expectations, and we remain confident in our ability to achieve our full-year 2024 financial guidance. We continue to focus on growing our offerings, including strategic investments in innovative solutions and superior talent, while proactively managing ongoing revenue challenges that include external factors such as significant postal rate increases and continued economic uncertainty that negatively impact print volumes.
“During Q1, we announced our entry into the next big advertising channel – retail media networks or RMNs. EMARKETER predicts ad spend in omnichannel RMNs will grow to over $100 billion by 2027. Our solution, called Quad In-Store Connect, advances the in-store shopping experience by taking the best elements of digital commerce and bringing it into physical retail environments. Retailers and consumer packaged goods companies now have the ability to deliver engaging brand messages and promotions right at the store shelf – the most critical moment in the purchasing decision. We are excited to announce our partnership with The Save Mart Companies, the largest private regional grocer on the West Coast, to launch its in-store retail media network, and are in talks with several other retailers. We look forward to demonstrating how In-Store Connect can generate value for clients as we strive to become the industry standard for in-store RMNs.
“Also during Q1, we unveiled Household Fusion™, a first-of-its-kind postal optimization program we proactively created to offset continued U.S. Postal Service rate hikes. This solution combines various marketing mail from different brands or, separately, various magazines from different publishers into a single package delivered to one address, creating significant postage savings. Clients like PWX Solutions, a direct marketing and production partnership formed between Hearst and Condé Nast, are enthusiastic about this solution, which reduces costs from one of a marketer’s biggest budget lines.
“Additionally, we recently introduced the next evolution of our media agency, Rise, which brings together our full range of media and owned data services under one brand so we’re even better equipped to solve client pain points. This evolution creates a truly differentiated offering in the market, including a modern integrated data stack that has privacy at its core and is resilient to industry challenges, like the deprecation of the third-party cookie.
“To reiterate, I am confident in our team, our strategy and our future as a marketing experience company. We are unwavering in our focus to enhance Quad’s financial strength and create value for all our stakeholders.”
Added Tony Staniak, Chief Financial Officer: “We reaffirm our full-year guidance and remain focused on delivering for our clients while enhancing our financial position, such as through our recent restructuring actions, including plant capacity and labor reduction initiatives, that we anticipate will generate $60 million in cost savings in 2024. We continue to expect strong cash generation, which we will use to further reduce Net Debt and achieve 1.8x Net Debt Leverage by the end of the year. We are pleased that our strong balance sheet and long-term commitment to debt reduction was recognized by Fitch Ratings, who recently revised our corporate credit rating outlook to Positive from Stable, indicating a potential future upgrade from our current ‘B+’ rating. In addition to lowering debt, we will continue to invest in accelerating our competitive position as an MX company while returning capital to shareholders through our regular quarterly dividend, and we expect to be opportunistic in terms of our future share repurchases.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things, our current expectations about the Company’s future results, financial condition, sales, earnings, free cash flow, margins, objectives, goals, strategies, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, prospects, projections and outlook of the Company and can generally be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “foresee,” “project,” “believe,” “continue” or the negatives of these terms, variations on them and other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results to be materially different from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based largely on the Company’s expectations and judgments and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control.
The factors that could cause actual results to materially differ include, among others: the impact of decreasing demand for printing services and significant overcapacity in a highly competitive environment creates downward pricing pressures and potential under-utilization of assets; the impact of increased business complexity as a result of the Company’s transformation to a marketing experience company; the impact of changes in postal rates, service levels or regulations, including delivery delays; the impact of fluctuations in costs (including labor and labor-related costs, energy costs, freight rates and raw materials, including paper and the materials to manufacture ink) and the impact of fluctuations in the availability of raw materials, including paper, parts for equipment and the materials to manufacture ink; the impact macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, high interest rates and recessionary concerns, as well as cost and labor pressures, distribution challenges and the price and availability of paper, have had, and may continue to have, on the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations (including future uncertain impacts); the inability of the Company to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency rapidly enough to meet market conditions; the impact of a data-breach of sensitive information, ransomware attack or other cyber incident on the Company; the fragility and decline in overall distribution channels; the failure to attract and retain qualified talent across the enterprise; the impact of digital media and similar technological changes, including digital substitution by consumers; the failure of clients to perform under contracts or to renew contracts with clients on favorable terms or at all; the impact of risks associated with the operations outside of the United States (“U.S.”), including trade restrictions, currency fluctuations, the global economy, costs incurred or reputational damage suffered due to improper conduct of its employees, contractors or agents, and geopolitical events like war and terrorism; the failure to successfully identify, manage, complete and integrate acquisitions, investment opportunities or other significant transactions, as well as the successful identification and execution of strategic divestitures; the impact negative publicity could have on our business and brand reputation; significant capital expenditures and investments may be needed to sustain and grow the Company’s platforms, processes, systems, client and product technology, marketing and talent, and to remain technologically and economically competitive; the impact of the various restrictive covenants in the Company’s debt facilities on the Company’s ability to operate its business, as well as the uncertain negative impacts macroeconomic conditions may have on the Company’s ability to continue to be in compliance with these restrictive covenants; the impact of an other than temporary decline in operating results and enterprise value that could lead to non-cash impairment charges due to the impairment of property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets; the impact of regulatory matters and legislative developments or changes in laws, including changes in cybersecurity, privacy and environmental laws; the impact on the holders of Quad’s class A common stock of a limited active market for such shares and the inability to independently elect directors or control decisions due to the voting power of the class B common stock; and the other risk factors identified in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which may be amended or supplemented by subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial measures not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (referred to as non-GAAP), specifically Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Net Debt, Debt Leverage Ratio and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and restructuring, impairment and transaction-related charges. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. Debt Leverage Ratio is defined as total debt and finance lease obligations less cash and cash equivalents (Net Debt) divided by the last twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share is defined as earnings (loss) before income taxes excluding restructuring, impairment and transaction-related charges and adjusted for income tax expense at a normalized tax rate, divided by diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, provide additional information for evaluating Quad’s performance and are important measures by which Quad’s management assesses the profitability and liquidity of its business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net earnings (loss) as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities as a measure of liquidity. These non-GAAP measures may be different than non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliation to the GAAP equivalent of these non-GAAP measures are contained in tabular form on the attached unaudited financial statements.

(1)
Adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the following: (i) restructuring, impairment and transaction-related charges and (ii) discrete income tax items.
In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), this earnings announcement also contains non-GAAP financial measures, specifically EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Net Debt, Debt Leverage Ratio and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, provide additional information for evaluating Quad’s performance and are important measures by which Quad’s management assesses the profitability and liquidity of its business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net earnings (loss) as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities as a measure of liquidity. These non-GAAP measures may be different than non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
