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

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(Tabular amounts 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 (see paragraph below for discussion of an other than normal adjustment) 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, 2011 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2012. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. 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.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company identified and recognized $19.8 million to correct an over-accrual for rebates owed to certain office products customers, which understated accounts receivable and net sales during the years 2008 through 2011. Following qualitative and quantitative review, the Company concluded that the over-accrual was not material to any prior period and is not expected to be material to the full year 2012 or to the trend of annual operating results.

2. Acquisitions

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $0.5 million and $0.8 million of acquisition-related expenses, respectively, associated with acquisitions contemplated, within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2011 Acquisitions

On November 21, 2011, the Company acquired StratusGroup, Inc. (“Stratus”), a full service manufacturer of custom pressure sensitive label and paperboard packaging products for health and beauty, food, beverage and other segments. Stratus’ decorative labeling and paperboard resources complement the Company’s prime label, corrugated and other global packaging capabilities. The purchase price for Stratus was $29.0 million, net of cash acquired of $0.1 million. Stratus’ operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On September 6, 2011, the Company acquired Genesis Packaging & Design Inc. (“Genesis”), a full service provider of custom packaging, including designing, printing, die cutting, finishing and assembling. The addition of Genesis complements the Company’s existing packaging and merchandising business with a centrally located facility and enhanced ability to service customers in a range of industries. The purchase price for Genesis was $10.1 million. Genesis’ operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On August 16, 2011, the Company acquired LibreDigital, Inc. (“LibreDigital”), a leading provider of digital content distribution, e-reading software, content conversion, data analytics and business intelligence services. LibreDigital’s capabilities enable the Company to offer a broader selection of digital content creation and

delivery services to publishing, retail, e-reader provider and other customers. The purchase price for LibreDigital was $19.5 million, net of cash acquired of $0.1 million. LibreDigital’s operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On August 15, 2011, the Company acquired Sequence Personal LLC (“Sequence”), a provider of proprietary software that enables readers to select relevant content to be digitally produced as specialized publications. Sequence’s software offers publishers and other customers a practical way to increase revenues by allowing advertisers to select unique ad selection criteria for targeted delivery. The purchase price for Sequence, which includes the Company’s estimate of contingent consideration, was $14.6 million, net of cash acquired of $0.1 million. A former equity holder of Sequence may receive contingent consideration in the form of cash payments of up to $14.0 million, subject to Sequence achieving certain milestones related to volume or revenue in 2013 and 2014. As of the acquisition date, the Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $6.8 million using a probability weighting of the potential payouts. The Company has subsequently revised the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as the result of a decrease in the likelihood of achieving the 2013 and 2014 milestones. The adjustment to the fair value of the contingent consideration was recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Subsequent changes in the estimated contingent consideration will also be recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Sequence’s operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On June 21, 2011, the Company acquired Helium, Inc. (“Helium”), an online community offering publishers, catalogers and other customers stock and custom content, as well as a comprehensive range of editorial solutions. The ability to bundle Helium’s content development solutions with the Company’s complete offering of content delivery resources addresses customers’ needs across the full breadth of the supply chain. As the Company previously held a 23.7% equity investment in Helium, the purchase price for the remaining equity of Helium was $57.0 million, net of cash acquired of $0.1 million, and included an amount due from Helium of $1.1 million. The fair value of the Company’s previously held equity investment was $12.8 million, resulting in the recognition of a $10.0 million gain, which was reflected in investment and other (income) expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2011. The fair value of the previously held equity investment was determined based on the purchase price paid for the remaining equity less an estimated control premium. The inputs used to determine the fair value of the previously held equity investment were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. Helium’s operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On March 24, 2011, the Company acquired Journalism Online, LLC (“Journalism Online”), an online provider of tools that allow consumers to purchase online subscriptions from publishers. Journalism Online’s Press+ offering provides subscription management and online content payment services that increase the breadth of services the Company offers to its existing base of publishing customers. The purchase price for Journalism Online was $19.6 million, net of cash acquired of $0.4 million. Journalism Online’s operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

The operations of these acquired businesses are complementary to the Company’s existing products and services. As a result, the additions of these businesses have improved the Company’s ability to serve customers and reduced redundant management, support and manufacturing costs.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $0.9 million and $1.3 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.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

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

 

The Stratus, Genesis, LibreDigital, Sequence, Helium and Journalism Online acquisitions were recorded by allocating the cost of the acquisitions to the assets acquired, including intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of the acquisitions and the fair value of the previously-held investments in Helium and contingent consideration over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The tax deductible goodwill related to these acquisitions was $46.9 million. Based on the valuations, the final purchase price allocations for these acquisitions were as follows:

 

Accounts receivable

   $ 6.0   

Inventories

     2.3   

Prepaid expenses and other current assets

     0.4   

Property, plant and equipment and other long-term assets

     16.8   

Amortizable intangible assets

     16.2   

Goodwill

     117.8   

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

     (8.2

Other noncurrent liabilities

     (2.9

Deferred taxes-net

     14.2   
  

 

 

 

Total purchase price-net of cash acquired

     162.6

     13.9   

Less: fair value of contingent consideration

     6.8   
  

 

 

 

Net cash paid

   $ 141.9   
  

 

 

 

The fair values of property, plant and equipment, amortizable intangible assets, contingent consideration and goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Stratus, Genesis, LibreDigital, Sequence, Helium and Journalism Online were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. Property, plant and equipment values were estimated based on discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the equipment and current marketplace conditions. Customer relationships intangible asset values were estimated based on expected future cash flows discounted using an estimated weighted average cost of capital. Estimates of future customer attrition rates were considered in estimating the expected future cash flows from customer relationships. Tradename intangible asset values were estimated based on the relief of royalty method.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $13.8 million and $50.6 million, respectively, for employee termination costs for 1,820 employees, of whom 1,578 were terminated as of June 30, 2012. These terminations resulted from the reorganization of sales and administrative functions across all segments, as well as facility closures and the reorganization of certain operations. The facility closures in the six months ended June 30, 2012 included four manufacturing facilities within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment and one manufacturing facility within the International segment. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $11.9 million and $15.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The Company also recorded $8.3 million and $17.6 million of impairment charges primarily related to machinery and equipment associated with the facility closings and other asset disposals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The fair values of the machinery and equipment were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy and were estimated based on discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $29.2 million and $54.0 million, respectively, for employee termination costs for 1,859 employees, all of whom were terminated as of June 30, 2012. These charges primarily related to the closings of certain facilities and headcount reductions due to the Bowne acquisition. In addition, these charges included the closing of three books and directories manufacturing facilities and one commercial manufacturing facility within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment. Additionally, the Company incurred multi-employer plan partial withdrawal charges, lease termination and other restructuring charges of $22.2 million and $40.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Of this amount, $15.8 million related to multi-employer pension plan partial withdrawal charges primarily attributable to the completed closing of three manufacturing facilities within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company also recorded $24.3 million and $32.4 million, respectively, of impairment charges primarily for machinery and equipment and leasehold improvements associated with the facility closings. The fair values of the machinery and equipment and leasehold improvements were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy and were estimated based on discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions.

The current portion of restructuring reserves of $55.1 million at June 30, 2012 was included in accrued liabilities, while the long-term portion of $44.5 million at June 30, 2012, primarily related to multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations and lease termination costs, was included in other noncurrent liabilities.

The Company anticipates that payments associated with the employee terminations reflected in the above table will be substantially completed by June of 2013 and payments on the multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations are scheduled to be substantially completed by 2031.

As of June 30, 2012, the restructuring liabilities classified as “lease terminations and other” consisted of lease terminations, other facility closing costs and contract termination costs. Payments on certain of the lease obligations are scheduled to continue until 2026. Market conditions and the Company’s ability to sublease these properties could affect the ultimate charge related to these lease obligations. Any potential recoveries or additional charges could affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of future periods.

On July 6, 2012, the Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2012 (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act includes certain pension-related provisions designed to stabilize interest rates used to calculate the minimum required annual contributions for defined benefit pension plans. The Company anticipates that provisions in the Act will significantly reduce the minimum required annual contributions related to its defined benefit pension plans over the next few years though these contributions are dependent on many factors, including returns on invested assets and discount rates used to determine pension obligations. The Company expects to make contributions of approximately $165 million to its pension plans and $9 million to its postretirement plans for the full year 2012, of which $51.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively, were made during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company estimates that it will make cash contributions totaling approximately $76 million to its pension and postretirement benefit plans in 2013.

On November 2, 2011, the Company announced a freeze on further benefit accruals under all U.S. pension plans as of December 31, 2011. Beginning January 1, 2012, participants ceased earning additional benefits under the plans and no new participants will enter these plans. Additionally, on February 1, 2012, the Company announced a freeze on further benefit accruals under its Canadian pension plans as of March 31, 2012.

The Company recognized expense of $7.3 million and $16.1 million for matching contributions under its reinstated 401(k) match for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

8. Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense based on estimated grant date fair values for all share-based awards issued to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. The total compensation expense related to all share-based compensation plans was $7.4 million and $14.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The total compensation expense related to all share-based compensation plans was $9.9 million and $16.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Stock Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted 1,221,000 and 200,000 stock options, respectively. The fair market value of each stock option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The fair market value of the stock options was determined using the following weighted average assumptions:

 

     2012     2011  

Expected volatility

     39.71     36.69

Risk-free interest rate

     1.18     2.54

Expected life (years)

     6.25        6.25   

Expected dividend yield

     5.06     4.57

The weighted average fair market value of options granted was $2.96 and $4.39 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

This amount will change in future periods based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock and the number of options outstanding. There were no options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Total intrinsic value of options exercised for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1.2 million.

a weighted average grant date fair market value of $11.79. The fair value of these awards was determined on the date of grant based on the Company’s stock price reduced by the present value of expected dividends through the vesting period.

The fair value of these awards was determined on the date of grant based on the Company’s stock price reduced by the present value of expected dividends through the vesting period. These awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to vesting, subject in some cases to early vesting upon specified events, including death or permanent disability of the grantee or a change in control of the Company.

Compensation expense related to performance share unit awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Compensation expense related to performance share unit awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

On May 3, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a program that authorizes the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2012. Share repurchases under the program may be made from time to time through a variety of methods as determined by the Company’s management. The repurchase authorizations do not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock or adopt any particular method of repurchase and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion.

As part of the share repurchase program, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) in 2011 with an investment bank under which the Company repurchased $500.0 million of its common stock, receiving an initial delivery of 19.9 million shares on May 10, 2011 and an additional 9.3 million shares on November 17, 2011.

Dividends declared per common share

   $ 0.26       $ 0.26       $ 0.52       $ 0.52   

 

(a) Dilutive options and awards take into consideration the dilution of certain unvested restricted stock awards, performance share unit awards and unexercised stock option awards. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, restricted stock units of 2.5 million and 2.3 million, respectively, were excluded as their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, performance share units of 0.5 million were excluded as the performance targets upon which issuance of these shares is contingent had not yet been achieved as of the end of the current period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, options to purchase 4.5 million shares and 4.2 million shares, respectively, were anti-dilutive because the option exercise price exceeded the fair value of the stock.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, restricted stock units of 2.8 million and 3.0 million, respectively, were excluded as their effect would be anti-dilutive and options to purchase 3.5 million shares were anti-dilutive for both periods as the option exercise price exceeded the fair value of the stock.

 

As discussed in Note 9, during 2011 the Company entered into an ASR with an investment bank under which the Company repurchased $500.0 million of its common stock. Both the initial and final delivery of shares resulted in a reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted net earnings per share.

11. Comprehensive Income

Income tax expense allocated to each component of other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:

13. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The Company provides for expenses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are adjusted as new information develops or circumstances change and are not discounted. The Company has been designated as a potentially responsible party in nine active federal and state Superfund and other multiparty remediation sites. In addition to these sites, the Company may also have the obligation to remediate eight other previously owned facilities and three other currently owned facilities. At the Superfund sites, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act provides that the Company’s liability could be joint and several, meaning that the Company could be required to pay an amount in excess of its proportionate share of the remediation costs.

The Company’s understanding of the financial strength of other potentially responsible parties at the multiparty sites and of other liable parties at the previously owned facilities has been considered, where appropriate, in the determination of the Company’s estimated liability. The Company established reserves, recorded in accrued liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities, that it believes are adequate to cover its share of the potential costs of remediation at each of the multiparty sites and the previously and currently owned facilities. It is not possible to quantify with certainty the potential impact of actions regarding environmental matters, particularly remediation and other compliance efforts that the Company may undertake in the future. However, in the opinion of management, compliance with the present environmental protection laws, before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties, will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

From time to time, the Company’s customers and others file voluntary petitions for reorganization under United States bankruptcy laws. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by the Company from these parties could be considered preference items and subject to return. In addition, the Company may be party to certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the final resolution of these preference items and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

(a) On May 17, 2011 and June 14, 2012, the interest rate on the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019 was increased to 11.75% and 12.0%, respectively, as a result of downgrades in the ratings of the notes by the rating agencies.
(b) Includes miscellaneous debt obligations, fair value adjustments to the Company’s 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 and 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019 related to the Company’s fair value hedges and capital leases.

 

The fair values of the senior notes and debentures, which were determined using the market approach based upon the interest rates available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities, were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s debt was less than its book value by approximately $36.9 million and $80.1 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

On March 13, 2012, the Company issued $450.0 million of 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2012. The net proceeds from the offering and cash on hand were used to repurchase $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015. The repurchases resulted in a pre-tax loss on debt extinguishment of $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, consisting of a loss of $23.2 million related to the premiums paid, unamortized debt issuance costs and other expenses, partially offset by the elimination of $11.1 million of the fair value adjustment on the 4.95% senior notes.

On January 15, 2012, proceeds from borrowings under the Company’s unsecured and committed revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) were used to pay the $158.6 million 5.625% senior notes that matured on January 15, 2012.

On June 1, 2011, the Company issued $600.0 million of 7.25% senior notes due May 15, 2018. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2011. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repurchase an initial $216.2 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019, $100.0 million of the 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2017 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015. The remaining net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes and to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Credit Agreement. On September 28, 2011, the Company repurchased an additional $11.6 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019. The repurchases resulted in a pre-tax loss on debt extinguishment of $69.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Interest income was $4.1 million and $7.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Interest income was $3.6 million and $6.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

15. Derivatives

All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. Unrealized gains and losses related to derivatives are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, or in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss related to the derivatives are generally recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) until the transaction affects earnings. For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge at inception, or fail to meet the criteria thereafter, are recognized currently in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. At the inception of a hedge transaction, the Company formally documents the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, the Company assesses both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is also recognized currently in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which it operates. The exposure to foreign currency movements is limited in most countries because the operating revenues and expenses of its various subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the country in which they operate. To the extent borrowings, sales, purchases, revenues, expenses or other transactions are not in the local currency of the operating unit, the Company is exposed to currency risk. Periodically, the Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts and cross-currency swaps to hedge exposures resulting from foreign exchange fluctuations. Accordingly, the implied gains and losses associated with the fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts and cross-currency swaps are generally offset by gains and losses on underlying payables, receivables and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts in order to manage the currency exposure of certain receivables and liabilities. The foreign exchange forward contracts were not designated as hedges, and accordingly, the fair value gains or losses from these foreign currency derivatives are recognized currently in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, generally offsetting the foreign exchange

gains or losses on the exposures being managed. The aggregate notional value of the forward contracts at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $114.6 million and $78.3 million, respectively. The fair values of foreign exchange forward contracts were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and are valued using market exchange rates.

On March 13, 2012, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure, effectively changing the interest rate on $400.0 million of its fixed-rate senior notes to a floating rate based on LIBOR plus a basis point spread. The interest rate swaps, with a notional value of $400.0 million, are designated as fair value hedges against changes in the value of the Company’s $450.0 million 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019, which are attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate.

On April 9, 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure, effectively changing the interest rate on $600.0 million of its fixed-rate senior notes to a floating rate based on LIBOR plus a basis point spread. The interest rate swaps, with a notional value of $600.0 million at inception, are designated as fair value hedges against changes in the value of the Company’s 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014, which are attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. During March 2012, the Company repurchased $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014, and related interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $342.0 million were terminated, resulting in proceeds of $11.0 million for the fair value of the interest rate swaps.

The fair values of interest rate swaps were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and were developed using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on the expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. The Company evaluates the credit value adjustments of the interest rate swap agreements, which take into account the possibility of counterparty and the Company’s own default, on at least a quarterly basis.

The Company manages credit risk for its derivative positions on a counterparty-by-counterparty basis, considering the net portfolio exposure with each counterparty, consistent with its risk management strategy for such transactions. The Company’s agreements with each of its counterparties contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if it either defaults or, in certain cases, is capable of being declared in default of any of its indebtedness greater than specified thresholds. These agreements also contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default subsequent to a merger or restructuring type event if the creditworthiness of the resulting entity is materially weaker.

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the total fair value of the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts, which were the only derivatives not designated as hedges, and fair value hedges, along with the accounts in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in which the fair value amounts were included were as follows:

 

     June 30, 2012      December 31, 2011

16. Fair Value Measurement

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s only assets and liabilities adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis are pension and postretirement plan assets, foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps. See Note 15 for further discussion on the fair value of the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company is required to record certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, generally as a result of acquisitions or the remeasurement of assets resulting in impairment charges. See Note 2 for further discussion on

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, impairment charges of $1.6 million and $7.2 million, respectively, were recognized on long-lived assets held and used. These assets had carrying amounts before the impairment charges of $6.5 million and $16.3 million during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and were written down to fair values of $4.9 million and $9.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, impairment charges of $12.1 million and $14.1 million, respectively, were recognized on long-lived assets held and used. These assets had carrying amounts before the impairment charges of $20.3 million and $82.6 million during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and were written down to fair values of $8.2 million and $68.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, impairment charges of $7.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively, were recognized on long-lived assets held for sale or disposal. These assets had carrying amounts before the impairment charges of $16.4 million and $21.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and were written down to fair values of $9.2 million and $10.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These fair values were reduced by estimated costs to sell of $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, impairment charges of $12.4 million and $18.2 million, respectively, were recognized on long-lived assets held for sale or disposal. These assets had carrying amounts before the impairment charges of $12.4 million and $19.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and were written down to fair values of zero and $1.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

The fair values of the long-lived assets held and used and long-lived assets held for sale or disposal were determined using Level 3 inputs and were estimated based on discussions with real estate brokers, review of comparable properties, if available, discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions. Unobservable inputs obtained from third parties are adjusted as necessary for the condition and attributes of the specific asset. The Company’s accounting and

finance management determines the valuation policies and procedures for Level 3 fair value measurements and is responsible for the development and determination of unobservable inputs.

See Note 14 for the fair value of the Company’s debt.

17. Income Taxes

The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were as follows:

 

Balance at December 31, 2011

   $ 76.4   

Additions for tax positions of the current year

     2.8   

Additions for tax positions of the prior year

     0.5   

Reductions for tax positions of prior years

     (24.6

Settlements during the year

     (1.7
  

 

 

 

Balance at June 30, 2012

   $ 53.4   
  

 

 

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized $24.6 million of previously unrecognized tax benefits, substantially all of which was due to the resolution of certain U.S. federal uncertain tax positions. As of June 30, 2012, it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within twelve months by as much as $18.8 million due to the resolution of audits or expirations of statutes of limitations related to U.S. federal, state and international tax positions.

18. New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU 2012-02”), which provides the option to perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. ASU 2012-02 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2013; however, as permitted, the Company will early adopt ASU 2012-02 in the third quarter of 2012. ASU 2012-02 is expected to reduce the complexity of testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment, but otherwise will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), which requires disclosures of gross and net information about financial and derivative instruments eligible for offset in the statement of financial position or subject to a master netting agreement. ASU 2011-11 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2013 and may require additional disclosures, but otherwise is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”), which prohibits the presentation of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires the presentation of net income, items of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated No. 2011-12 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting

Standards Update No. 2011-05” (“ASU 2011-12”), which defers the requirement to present reclassification adjustments for each component of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. ASU 2011-05 and 2011-12 were effective and adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2012 and impacted the Company’s financial statement presentation, but otherwise did not impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04”), which amends the definition of fair value measurement principles and disclosure requirements to eliminate differences between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 requires new quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the sensitivity of recurring Level 3 measurement disclosures, as well as transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2011-04 was effective and adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2012 and impacted the Company’s disclosures, but otherwise did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Income tax expense increased as compared to the same period in the prior year reflecting the 2011 release of reserves related to the resolution of certain state audits and the release of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets. See further details in the review of operating results by segment that follows below.

Overview

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company experienced the impact of continued economic uncertainty and the increasing impact of electronic substitution on certain product offerings. Net sales decreased during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011 in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment, resulting from lower overall volume, a decline in pass-through paper sales and ongoing price pressures, and in the International segment, primarily due to changes in foreign exchanges rates. These decreases were partially offset by organic growth in certain products and services during the second quarter of 2012, despite the difficult environment. In particular, the Company had organic growth in logistics, business process outsourcing, Asia and office products. The largest net sales declines were experienced in books and directories, due to reduced state and local funding for educational materials and electronic substitution; Europe, due to changes in foreign exchange rates, a decline in capital markets transactions activity and lower print bundling volume; magazines, catalogs and retail inserts, due mostly to customers furnishing their own paper; Latin America, due primarily to changes in foreign exchange rates and lower book, commercial print and forms volumes in Chile and Brazil; and financial print, due to a decline in capital markets transactions activity.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company’s operating margin increased from 4.3% to 5.6% as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was partially driven by several restructuring actions initiated by the Company in the current and prior year to further reduce the Company’s overall cost structure. These actions included the reorganization of sales and administrative functions across all segments. In addition, the Company completed or announced closures of five manufacturing facilities during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $9.9 million as compared to $168.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities primarily resulted from shifts in the timing of supplier payments and cash collections, higher pension and postretirement contributions and the Company’s reinstated 401(k) match, partially offset by lower payments for employee incentive compensation. Similar to 2011, the Company also expects higher net cash inflows from operations in the second half of 2012 due to normal operating cycles of the Company’s business. On July 6, 2012, the Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2012 (the “Act”) was signed into law. Changes in pension funding requirements primarily as a result of the Act reduced the Company’s expected 2012 pension and postretirement contributions by approximately $42 million as compared to previous estimates. These changes are expected to result in additional reductions of the Company’s required contributions in 2013 and 2014. The Company expects to make pension and postretirement contributions of approximately $174 million during the

twelve months ending December 31, 2012, which is expected to result in lower operating cash flows as compared to the prior year. Of this amount, $56.6 million was paid during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The majority of the remaining contributions are expected to be made during the third quarter.

On May 22, 2012, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire EDGAR Online for approximately $70.5 million. EDGAR Online, a leading provider of disclosure management services, financial data and enterprise risk analytics software and solutions, is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland. The Company expects the acquisition of EDGAR Online to expand and enhance the range of services that the Company offers to its customers. In addition, this acquisition is expected to be accretive to earnings in the first full year after closing. The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of 2012 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by EDGAR Online shareholders.

OUTLOOK

Competition and Strategy

The print and related services industry, in general, continues to have excess capacity and remains highly competitive. Despite some consolidation in recent years, the printing industry remains highly fragmented. Across the Company’s range of products and services, competition is based primarily on price in addition to quality and the ability to service the special needs of customers. Management expects that prices for the Company’s products and services will continue to be a focal point for customers in coming years. Therefore, the Company believes it needs to continue to lower its cost structure and differentiate its products and service offerings.

Technological changes, including the electronic distribution of documents and data, online distribution and hosting of media content, and advances in digital printing, print-on-demand and Internet technologies, continue to impact the market for the Company’s products and services. The Company seeks to leverage the distinctive capabilities of its products and services to improve its customers’ communications, whether in paper form or through electronic communications. The Company’s goal remains to help its customers succeed by delivering effective and targeted communications in the right format to the right audiences at the right time. Management believes that with the Company’s competitive strengths, including its broad range of complementary print-related services, strong logistics capabilities, technology leadership, depth of management experience, customer relationships and economies of scale, the Company has developed and can further develop valuable, differentiated solutions for its customers. The Company seeks to leverage its unified platform and strong customer relationships in order to serve a larger share of its customers’ print and related services needs.

As a substitute for print, the impact of digital technologies has been felt mainly in books, directories, forms and statement printing. Electronic communication and transaction technology has eliminated or reduced the role of many traditional printed products and has continued to accelerate electronic substitution in directory and statement printing, in part driven by environmental concerns and cost pressures at key customers. In addition, rapid growth in the adoption of e-books is having an increasing impact on consumer print book volume, though only a limited impact on educational and specialty books. The future impact of technology on the Company’s business is difficult to predict and could result in additional expenditures to restructure impacted operations or develop new technologies. In addition, the Company has made targeted acquisitions and investments in the Company’s existing business to offer customers innovative services and solutions that further secure the Company’s position as a technology leader in the industry.

The Company has implemented a number of strategic initiatives to reduce its overall cost structure and improve efficiency, including the restructuring, reorganization and integration of operations and streamlining of administrative and support activities. Future cost reduction initiatives could include the reorganization of operations and the consolidation of facilities. Implementing such initiatives might result in future restructuring or impairment charges, which may be substantial. Management also reviews the Company’s operations and management structure on a regular basis to balance appropriate risks and opportunities to maximize efficiencies and to support the Company’s long-term strategic goals.

Seasonality

Advertising and consumer spending trends affect demand in several of the end-markets served by the Company. Historically, demand for printing of magazines, catalogs, retail inserts and books is higher in the second half of the year driven by increased advertising pages within magazines, and holiday catalog, retail insert and book volumes. This typical seasonal pattern can be impacted by overall trends in the U.S. and world economy. The Company expects the seasonality impact in 2012 and future years to be in line with historical patterns.

Raw Materials

The primary raw materials the Company uses in its print businesses are paper and ink. The Company negotiates with leading suppliers to maximize its purchasing efficiencies and uses a wide variety of paper grades, formats, ink formulations and colors. In addition, a substantial amount of paper used by the Company is supplied directly by customers. Variations in the cost and supply of certain paper grades and ink formulations used in the manufacturing process may affect the Company’s consolidated financial results. Paper prices fluctuated during the first half of 2012, and volatility in the future is expected. Generally, customers directly absorb the impact of changing prices on customer-supplied paper. With respect to paper purchased by the Company, the Company has historically passed most increases and decreases through to its customers. Contractual arrangements and industry practice should support the Company’s continued ability to pass on any future paper price increases, but there is no assurance that market conditions will continue to enable the Company to successfully do so. Management believes that paper supply is consolidating, and there may be shortfalls in the future in supplies necessary to meet the demands of the entire marketplace. Higher paper prices and tight paper supplies may have an impact on customers’ demand for printed products. Additionally, the Company has undertaken various strategic initiatives to mitigate any foreseeable supply disruptions with respect to the Company’s ink requirements.

The Company continues to monitor the impact of changes in the price of crude oil and other energy costs, which impact the Company’s ink suppliers, logistics operations and manufacturing costs. Crude oil and energy prices continue to be volatile. The Company believes its logistics operations will continue to be able to pass a substantial portion of any increases in fuel prices directly to its customers in order to offset the impact of related cost increases. The Company generally cannot pass on to customers the impact of higher energy prices on its manufacturing costs. However, the Company enters into fixed price contracts for a portion of its natural gas purchases to mitigate the impact of changes in energy prices. The Company cannot predict sudden changes in energy prices and the impact that possible future energy price increases or decreases might have upon either future operating costs or customer demand and the related impact either will have on the Company’s consolidated annual results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Distribution

The Company’s products are distributed to end-users through the U.S. or foreign postal services, through retail channels, electronically or by direct shipment to customer facilities. Through its logistics operations, the Company manages the distribution of most customer products printed by the Company in the U.S. and Canada to maximize efficiency and reduce costs for customers.

Postal costs are a significant component of many customers’ cost structures and postal rate changes can influence the number of pieces that the Company’s customers are willing to print and mail. On January 22, 2012, the United States Postal Service (“USPS”) increased postage rates for all major mail classes within the market-dominant product category, including first-class mail, standard mail, periodicals and single piece parcel post. The new rates increased the cost of mailing these classes of mail by approximately 2.1%, on average, which is the formula calculated cap under the 2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act. Under this act, it is anticipated that postage will increase annually by an amount equal to or slightly less than the Consumer Price Index. As a leading provider of print logistics and the largest mailer of standard mail in the U.S., the Company works closely with the USPS and its customers to offer innovative products and services to minimize postage

costs. While the Company does not directly absorb the impact of higher postal rates on its customers’ mailings, demand for products distributed through the U.S. or foreign postal services is expected to be impacted by changes in the postal rates.

Risks Related to Market Conditions

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment tests as of October 31, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. As part of its interim review for indicators of impairment, management analyzed potential changes in value of individual reporting units based on each reporting unit’s operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to expected results as of October 31, 2011. In addition, management considered how other key assumptions, including discount rates and expected long-term growth rates, used in the last fiscal year’s impairment analysis, could be impacted by changes in market conditions and economic events. Since October 31, 2011, the market value of the Company’s stock has decreased while market yields on the Company’s debt have increased in recent months.

Management considered these trends in performing its assessment of whether an interim impairment review was required for any reporting unit. Based on this interim assessment, management concluded that as of June 30, 2012, no events or changes in circumstances indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value for any reporting unit had declined below its carrying value. Nevertheless, significant changes in global economic and market conditions could result in changes to expectations of future financial results and key valuation assumptions. These changes could result in revisions of management’s estimates of the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and could result in a material impairment of goodwill as of October 31, 2012, the Company’s next annual measurement date.

In particular, the books and directories reporting unit has continued to experience declines in sales due to lower demand for educational books as a result of state and local government budget constraints, the impact of electronic substitution on directory and consumer book volumes and pricing pressures driven by excess capacity in the industry. Continued negative trends could have a significant impact on the estimated fair value of this reporting unit and could result in future impairment charges. Significant uncertainty exists with respect to the timing and extent of recovery in education book volumes and the pace of electronic substitution for printed consumer books. As of the October 31, 2011 annual goodwill impairment test, the books and directories reporting unit’s estimated fair value exceeded book value by approximately 18%. As of June 30, 2012 $318.6 million of goodwill was allocated to the books and directories reporting unit, which is included within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

The funded status of the Company’s pension and postretirement plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets and the level of certain market interest rates. As experienced in prior years, declines in the market value of the securities held by the plans have reduced, and in the future could materially reduce, the funded status of the plans. These reductions have increased the level of expected required pension and postretirement contributions in future years. Market conditions may lead to changes in the discount rates used to value the year-end benefit obligations of the plans, which could partially mitigate or worsen the effects of the lower asset returns. The Act, signed into law in July of 2012, includes certain pension-related provisions designed to stabilize interest rates used to calculate the minimum required annual contributions for defined benefit pension plans. The Company anticipates that provisions in the Act will significantly reduce the minimum required annual contributions related to its defined benefit pension plans over the next few years though these contributions are dependent on many factors, including returns on invested assets and discount rates used to determine the pension obligations. Based on current estimates, the Company expects to make cash contributions of approximately $174 million to its pension and postretirement plans in 2012 and approximately $76 million in 2013.

Consolidated

Net sales of products for the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased $167.2 million, or 7.1%, to $2,189.7 million versus the same period in the prior year, including a $40.6 million, or 1.7%, decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Net sales of products decreased in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment, resulting from lower overall volume, decreased pass-through paper sales, a decline in capital markets transactions activity and ongoing price pressure, and in the International segment, primarily due to changes in foreign exchange rates. These decreases were partially offset by increased volume in business process outsourcing, higher volume in office products and organic growth in Asia.

Net sales from services for the three months ended June 30, 2012 increased $72.4 million, or 27.2%, to $338.9 million versus the same period in the prior year. Net sales from financial services increased, driven in part by changes in the classification of certain financial services revenues, as well as increased XBRL financial services volume. Logistics volume also increased, driven primarily by growth in freight brokerage services. These increases were partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates of $2.7 million, or 1.0%.

Products cost of sales decreased $87.6 million to $1,689.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower overall volume. Products cost of sales as a percentage of products net sales increased from 75.4% to 77.2%, reflecting unfavorable product mix, price declines and lower recovery on print-related by-products.

Services cost of sales increased $39.9 million to $244.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in the prior year primarily due to increased financial services revenue and higher logistics volume. Services cost of sales as a percentage of services net sales decreased from 76.7% to 72.1%, reflecting favorable mix and pricing in logistics.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $33.4 million to $275.9 million, and from 11.8% to 10.9% as a percentage of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in the prior year due to lower pension and postretirement benefits expenses, primarily resulting from the freeze on further benefit accruals under all U.S. and Canadian pension plans beginning January 1, 2012 and April 1, 2012, respectively, and cost savings from restructuring activities.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded net restructuring and impairment charges of $34.0 million compared to $75.7 million in the same period of 2011. In 2012, these charges included $13.8 million for employee termination costs for 455 employees, of whom 267 were terminated as of June 30, 2012. These terminations resulted from the reorganization of sales and administrative functions across all segments, the closing of two manufacturing facilities within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment and the reorganization of certain operations. Additionally, for the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $11.9 million and impairment charges of $8.3 million, primarily related to machinery and equipment associated with the facility closings and other asset disposals.

Restructuring charges for the three months ended June 30, 2011 included $29.2 million for employee termination costs for 1,150 employees, all of whom were terminated as of June 30, 2012. These charges primarily related to the closings of certain facilities and headcount reductions due to the Bowne acquisition. The charges also related to the closing of two books and directories manufacturing facilities and one commercial manufacturing facility within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment. Additionally, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 the Company incurred other restructuring charges, including lease termination and other facility closure costs of $22.2 million, of which $15.8 million related to multi-employer pension plan partial withdrawal charges primarily related to the closing of three manufacturing facilities. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company also recorded $24.3 million of impairment charges primarily for machinery and equipment and leasehold improvements associated with the facility closings.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $19.8 million to $120.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the impact of lower capital spending in recent years compared to historical levels, certain other intangible assets becoming fully amortized during the period and the impairment of $90.7 million of other intangible assets in the fourth quarter of 2011. Depreciation and amortization included $22.1 million and $28.8 million of amortization of other intangible assets related to customer relationships, patents, trademarks, licenses and agreements and trade names for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $163.9 million, an increase of 41.2% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was due to lower restructuring and impairment charges, cost savings from restructuring activities, lower pension and postretirement benefits expenses and lower depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by lower overall volume and unfavorable product mix, declining prices and lower recovery on print-related by-products.

Net interest expense increased by $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in 2011, primarily due to the June 1, 2011 issuance of $600.0 million of 7.25% senior notes due May 15, 2018 and the March 13, 2012 issuance of $450.0 million of 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019 as well as increased borrowings under the Credit Agreement, partially offset by the repayment of $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014, $158.6 million of the 5.625% senior notes due January 15, 2012 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015 in the first quarter of 2012.

Net investment and other (income) expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was expense of $4.8 million and income of $10.0 million, respectively. The three months ended June 30, 2012 included an impairment loss on an equity investment of $4.1 million. The three months ended June 30, 2011 included a $10.0 million gain recognized on the acquisition of Helium, in which the Company previously held an equity investment.

Loss on debt extinguishment for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $68.6 million due to the repurchase of $216.2 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019, $100.0 million of the 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2017 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was a provision of 6.8% compared to a benefit of 428.9% in the same period of 2011. The tax rate in 2012 reflects the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the resolution of certain U.S. federal uncertain tax positions. The rate in 2011 reflects the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the resolution of certain U.S. state tax audits as well as the release of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets within the U.S. and Europe.

Income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $88.8 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared to $12.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2011. In addition to the factors described above, the per share results reflect a decrease in weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 17.7 million primarily due to the purchase of shares as a result of the accelerated share repurchase in 2011.

Net sales for the U.S. Print and Related Services segment for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $1,846.0 million, a decrease of $74.9 million, or 3.9%, compared to the same period in 2011. Net sales decreased due to lower volume in both books and directories, decreases in pass-through paper sales, declines in capital markets transactions activity, lower commercial, statement and direct mail printing volume and lower prices, partially offset by higher volume in freight brokerage services, office products and XBRL financial services. An analysis of net sales by reporting unit follows:

 

   

Magazines, catalogs and retail inserts: Sales declined due to decreases in pass-through paper sales and price declines, partially offset by higher catalog volume.

 

   

Variable print: Sales decreased as a result of lower statement and direct mail printing volume and continued price pressures.

 

   

Books and directories: Sales decreased due to lower volume in educational books, consumer books and directories primarily as a result of lower state funding for educational materials and electronic substitution, as well as lower pass-through paper sales and price declines for books.

 

   

Financial print: Sales decreased due to a decline in capital markets transactions activity, partially offset by an increase in XBRL financial services volume.

 

   

Forms and labels: Sales decreased due to lower forms and labels volume and price declines, partially offset by sales resulting from the Stratus acquisition.

 

   

Logistics: Sales increased primarily due to higher freight brokerage services volume as well as increased courier and expedited logistics services.

 

   

Commercial: Sales decreased due to lower volume, unfavorable product mix and lower pricing.

 

   

Office products: Sales increased as the result of new business from existing customers, an increase in back-to-school supplies volume and favorable pricing.

 

   

Premedia: Sales increased slightly due to higher volume, largely offset by price pressures on contract renewals.

U.S. Print and Related Services segment income from operations increased $32.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 mainly driven by lower restructuring and impairment charges, cost savings from restructuring activities and lower depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by lower overall volume, lower recovery on print-related by-products and price declines. Operating margins increased from 6.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 9.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, due to lower restructuring and impairment charges, cost savings from restructuring activities and lower depreciation and amortization expense.

Net sales for the International segment for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $682.6 million, a decrease of $19.9 million, or 2.8%, compared to the same period in 2011. The net sales decrease was due to changes in foreign exchange rates of $43.3 million, or 6.2%, a decline in capital markets transactions activity, decreased print bundling volume in Europe, lower volume in Latin America and price pressures, partially offset by increased volume in business process outsourcing, Asia and Global Turnkey Solutions and higher pass-through paper sales in Asia. An analysis of net sales by reporting unit follows:

 

   

Asia: Sales increased due to increased volume in print bundling and packaging services, increased pass-through paper sales and higher book export volume, partially offset by a decline in capital markets transactions activity and price declines.

 

   

Business process outsourcing: Sales increased due to higher pass-through sales in print management, increased global outsourcing volume and volume increases from new and existing customers, partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates.

 

   

Latin America: Sales decreased due to changes in foreign exchange rates, declines in book and commercial print volume in Chile and lower forms and book volume in Brazil, partially offset by higher commercial print volume in Argentina and Mexico and favorable pricing.

 

   

Europe: Sales decreased due to changes in foreign exchange rates, a decline in capital markets transactions activity, lower print bundling volume and declines in directories volume, partially offset by increased commercial print volume.

 

   

Global Turnkey Solutions: Sales increased primarily due to volume increases from existing and new customer contracts, partially offset by lower volume from the loss of a customer and price pressures.

 

   

Canada: Sales decreased due to declines in forms and commercial volumes, changes in foreign exchange rates and a decline in capital markets transactions activity, partially offset by higher statement printing volume for a new customer.

Income from operations decreased $1.6 million primarily due to lower capital markets transactions activity, volume decreases in Europe, wage inflation in Latin America and Asia and price declines, largely offset by cost savings from restructuring activities, lower restructuring and impairment charges and increased volume in Global Turnkey Solutions, Asia and business process outsourcing. Operating margins remained constant at 6.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, reflecting cost savings from restructuring activities, lower restructuring and impairment charges and higher volume in certain products and services, partially offset by wage inflation, price declines and higher pass-through sales in print management.

Corporate operating expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $43.8 million, a decrease of $16.5 million compared to the same period in 2011. The decrease was driven by lower pension and postretirement benefits expenses, primarily related to the freeze on further benefit accruals for all U.S. and Canadian pension plans beginning January 1, 2012 and April 1, 2012, respectively and lower LIFO inventory provisions, partially offset by higher healthcare costs, the Company’s reinstated 401(k) match and increased restructuring and impairment charges.

Net sales of products decreased in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment, resulting from lower overall volume, a decline in capital markets transactions activity, decreased pass-through paper sales and ongoing price pressures, and in the International segment, primarily due to changes in foreign exchange rates. These decreases were partially offset by increased volume in business process outsourcing, the rebate adjustment to net sales to correct for an over-accrual of rebates due to certain office products customers and organic growth in Asia.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $76.8 million to $559.4 million, and from 12.2% to 11.1% as a percentage of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in the prior year due to lower pension and postretirement benefits expenses, primarily resulting from the freeze on further benefit accruals under all U.S. and Canadian pension plans beginning January 1, 2012 and April 1, 2012, respectively, and cost savings from restructuring activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded net restructuring and impairment charges of $84.0 million compared to $126.5 million in the same period of 2011. In 2012, these charges included $50.6 million for employee termination costs for 1,820 employees, of whom 1,578 were terminated as of June 30, 2012.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $35.0 million to $245.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the impact of lower capital spending in recent years compared to historical levels, certain other intangible assets becoming fully amortized during the period and the impairment of $90.7 million of other intangible assets in the fourth quarter of 2011. Depreciation and amortization included $46.4 million and $57.3 million of amortization of other intangible assets related to customer relationships, patents, trademarks, licenses and agreements and trade names for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $285.3 million, an increase of 26.5% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was due to lower pension and postretirement

benefits expenses, cost savings from restructuring activities, lower restructuring and impairment charges and lower depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by lower overall volume, price declines and lower recovery on print-related by-products.

Net interest expense increased by $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period in 2011, primarily due to the June 1, 2011 issuance of $600.0 million of 7.25% senior notes due May 15, 2018 and the March 13, 2012 issuance of $450.0 million of 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019 as well as increased borrowings under the Credit Agreement, partially offset by the repayment of $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014, $158.6 million of the 5.625% senior notes due January 15, 2012 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015 during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Net investment and other (income) expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was expense of $3.6 million and income of $9.8 million, respectively.

The six months ended June 30, 2011 included a $10.0 million gain recognized on the acquisition of Helium, in which the Company previously held an equity investment.

Loss on debt extinguishment for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $12.1 million due to the 2012 repurchase of $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015. The loss consisted of $23.2 million related to the premiums paid, unamortized debt issuance costs and other expenses, partially offset by the elimination of $11.1 million of the fair value adjustment on the 4.95% senior notes. Loss on debt extinguishment for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $68.6 million due to the repurchase of $216.2 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019, $100.0 million of the 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2017 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015.

The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 12.7% compared to 1.5% in the same period of 2011. The tax rate in 2012 reflects the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the resolution of certain U.S. federal uncertain tax positions and the release of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets in Europe. The rate in 2011 reflects the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the resolution of certain U.S. state audits as well as the release of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets within the U.S. and Europe.

Income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $126.2 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared to $46.1 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011. In addition to the factors described above, the per share results reflect a decrease in weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 22.6 million primarily due to the purchase of shares as a result of the accelerated share repurchase in 2011.

(a) Certain prior year amounts were restated to conform to the Company’s current reporting unit structure.

Net sales for the U.S. Print and Related Services segment for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $3,727.4 million, a decrease of $134.6 million, or 3.5%, compared to the same period in 2011. Net sales decreased due to lower volume in both books and directories, a decline in capital markets transactions activity, decreases in pass-through paper sales, lower volume in direct mail and statement printing and price declines, partially offset by increased freight brokerage services volume, the rebate adjustment to net sales to correct for an over-accrual of rebates due to certain office products customers, and increased XBRL financial services and office products volume. An analysis of net sales by reporting unit follows:

 

   

Magazines, catalogs and retail inserts: Sales declined due to decreases in pass-through paper sales, price pressures and reduced volume and unfavorable product mix.

 

   

Variable print: Sales decreased as a result of lower direct mail and statement printing volume and lower pricing, partially offset by higher digital print and fulfillment volume.

 

   

Books and directories: Sales decreased due to lower volume in consumer books, educational books and directories primarily as a result of electronic substitution and lower state funding for educational materials, as well as lower pass-through paper sales and price declines for books, partially offset by favorable pricing for directories.

 

   

Financial print: Sales decreased primarily due to a decline in capital markets transactions activity as well as price pressures, partially offset by an increase in XBRL financial services volume.

 

   

Forms and labels: Sales declined due to lower forms and labels volume and price declines, partially offset by sales resulting from the Stratus acquisition.

 

   

Logistics: Sales increased primarily due to higher freight brokerage services volume as well as increased courier and expedited logistics services.

 

   

Commercial: Sales decreased due to lower volume, unfavorable product mix and lower prices.

 

   

Office products: Sales increased primarily as the result of the rebate adjustment, as well as new business from existing customers, favorable pricing and an increase in back-to-school supplies volume.

 

   

Premedia: Sales increased due to higher volume, partially offset by price declines on contract renewals.

Table of Contents

U.S. Print and Related Services segment income from operations increased $30.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 mainly driven by cost savings from restructuring activities, lower restructuring and impairment charges, lower depreciation and amortization expense as well as the rebate adjustment, partially offset by a decline in capital markets transactions activity, lower volume in books and directories, price declines and lower recovery on print-related by-products. Operating margins increased from 7.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 8.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2012, due to cost savings from restructuring activities, lower restructuring and impairment charges, lower depreciation and amortization expense and the rebate adjustment.

Net sales for the International segment for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $1,326.1 million, a decrease of $18.8 million, or 1.4%, compared to the same period in 2011. The net sales decrease was due to changes in foreign exchange rates of $63.0 million, or 4.7%, a decline in capital markets transactions activity, decreased print bundling volume in Europe and lower prices, partially offset by increased volume in business process outsourcing and Asia and higher pass-through paper sales in Europe and Asia. An analysis of net sales by reporting unit follows:

 

   

Asia: Sales increased due to higher volume in print bundling and packaging services, higher book export volume and increased pass-through paper sales, partially offset by a decline in capital markets transactions activity and price declines.

 

   

Business process outsourcing: Sales increased due to higher pass-through sales in print management, increased volume from new and existing customers and increased outsourcing services, partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates.

 

   

Latin America: Sales decreased due to changes in foreign exchange rates, declines in book and commercial print volume in Chile, lower forms volume in Brazil and a decline in capital markets transactions activity, partially offset by higher commercial print volume in Argenttina and Mexico.

Europe: Sales decreased due to lower print bundling volume, changes in foreign exchange rates, a decline in capital markets transactions activity and a decline in directories volume, partially offset by higher pass-through paper sales and increased commercial print volume.

 

   

Global Turnkey Solutions: Sales decreased slightly due to lower volume from the loss of a customer as well as price declines that were largely offset by volume increases from existing and new customer contracts.

 

   

Canada: Sales decreased due to declines in forms and commercial volumes, as well as changes in foreign exchange rates and a decrease in capital markets transactions activity, partially offset by higher statement printing volume for a new customer.

Income from operations decreased $15.1 million primarily due to lower capital markets transactions activity, price pressures, decreased print bundling volume in Europe and wage inflation in Latin America and Asia, partially offset by lower restructuring and impairment charges, cost savings from restructuring activities, lower depreciation and amortization expense and increased outsourcing services and Global Turnkey Solutions volume. Operating margins decreased from 6.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to unfavorable product mix, price pressures, wage inflation and higher pass-through sales in print management, partially offset by lower restructuring and impairment charges, cost savings from restructuring activities and higher volume in certain products.

Corporate

The following table summarizes unallocated operating expenses and certain items impacting comparability within the Corporate segment:

Corporate operating expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $92.2 million, a decrease of $44.7 million compared to the same period in 2011. The decrease was driven by lower pension and postretirement benefits expenses, primarily related to the freeze on further benefit accruals for all U.S. and Canadian pension plans beginning January 1, 2012 and April 1, 2012, respectively, and lower LIFO inventory provisions, partially offset by higher healthcare costs and the Company’s reinstated 401(k) match.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following describes the Company’s cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

Operating cash inflows are largely attributable to sales of the Company’s products and services. Operating cash outflows are largely attributable to recurring expenditures for raw materials, labor, rent, interest, taxes and other operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $168.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities reflected shifts in the timing of supplier payments and cash collections in the first six months of 2012, lower net sales, higher healthcare costs, higher pension and postretirement contributions and payments related to the Company’s reinstated 401(k) match, partially offset by lower incentive compensation payments.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $89.9 million compared to $208.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decline was due to cash used for the acquisitions of Helium and Journalism Online of $75.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and a decrease in capital expenditures of $34.5 million compared to the first six months of 2011. The Company expects that capital expenditures for 2012 will be approximately $200.0 million to $225.0 million, compared to $250.9 million in 2011.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1.6 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $134.4 million in the same period of 2011. Proceeds from borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) of $260.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were primarily used to pay the $158.6 million 5.625% senior notes that matured during the first quarter. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company received proceeds of $450.0 million from the issuance of 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019, which, along with cash on hand, were used to repurchase $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company received net proceeds from the issuance of $600.0 million of 7.25% long-term senior notes due May 15, 2018, as well as $355.0 million from net borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011, included $500.0 million for the acquisition of the Company’s common stock under its accelerated share repurchase agreement and $480.7 million to repurchase senior notes in the aggregate principal amount of $416.2 million due February 1, 2019, January 15, 2017 and May 15, 2015.

Dividends

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company paid cash dividends of $93.3 million. On July 19, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per common share payable on September 4, 2012 to the RR Donnelley shareholders of record on August 10, 2012.

LIQUIDITY

The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to support its ongoing operations and to invest in future growth to create value for its shareholders. Operating cash flows and the Company’s revolving Credit Agreement are the Company’s primary sources of liquidity and are expected to be used for, among other things, interest and principal on the Company’s long term debt obligations, capital expenditures as necessary to support productivity improvement and growth, completion of restructuring programs, dividend payments that may be approved by the Board of Directors, acquisitions and future common stock repurchases based upon market conditions.

Cash and cash equivalents of $369.0 million as of June 30, 2012 included $31.5 million in the U.S. and $337.5 million at international locations. Cash held by foreign subsidiaries may be subject to U.S. federal or state income taxes and/or local country withholding taxes if repatriated to the U.S. In addition, repatriation of some foreign cash balances is further restricted by local laws. The Company has recognized deferred tax liabilities of $3.0 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 related to local withholding taxes on certain foreign earnings which are not considered to be permanently reinvested. In addition, management regularly evaluates whether foreign cash balances are expected to be permanently reinvested. This evaluation requires judgment about the future operating and liquidity needs of the Company’s foreign and domestic subsidiaries, and the expected tax consequences of any distributions by foreign subsidiaries. Changes in economic and business conditions, foreign or U.S. tax laws, or the Company’s financial situation could result in changes to these judgments and the need to record additional deferred tax liabilities. The Company maintains a cash pooling structure that enables participating international locations to draw on the Company’s overseas cash resources to meet local liquidity needs. The foreign cash balances may be loaned to U.S. operating entities on a temporary basis in order to reduce the Company’s short-term borrowing costs or for other purposes.

The Company has a $1.75 billion revolving Credit Agreement which expires December 17, 2013, subject to a possible one-year extension if agreed to by the lending financial institutions. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate dependent on the Company’s credit ratings at the time of borrowing and will be calculated according to a base or Eurocurrency rate plus an applicable margin. The Company pays annual commitment fees at rates dependent on the Company’s credit ratings. The Credit Agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including letters of credit. The Credit Agreement is subject to a number of financial covenants that, in part, may limit the use of proceeds, and the ability of the Company to create liens on assets, incur subsidiary debt, engage in mergers and consolidations or dispose of assets. The financial covenants require a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio, both to be computed on a pro forma basis as defined in the Credit Agreement. Based on the Company’s results of operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012 and existing term debt structure, in addition to the $325.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement, the Company could utilize an additional $1.0 billion of the $1.75 billion Credit Agreement and not be in violation of the maximum leverage ratio, as shown in the table below. However, the Company does not expect the reduction in availability on the Credit Agreement to impact its ability to meet its liquidity requirements. The current availability under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2012 is shown in the following table:

The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of June 30, 2012, and expects to remain in compliance based on management’s estimates of operating and financial results for 2012 and the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company met all the conditions required to borrow under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2012 and management expects the Company to continue to meet the applicable borrowing conditions.

The Company also has $158.0 million in credit facilities outside of the U.S., most of which are uncommitted. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had $61.3 million in outstanding letters of credit, of which $38.9 million were issued under the Credit Agreement. The failure of a financial institution supporting the Credit Agreement would reduce the size of our committed facility unless a replacement institution were added. Currently, the Credit Agreement is supported by twenty-one U.S. and international financial institutions. The Company’s debt maturities as of June 30, 2012 are shown in the following table:

Table of Contents

On August 1, 2012, Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P”) lowered the Company’s long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings from BB+ with a negative outlook to BB with a stable outlook.

On June 13, 2012, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) lowered the Company’s senior unsecured debt ratings from Ba1 to Ba2 and reaffirmed a negative outlook.

As a result of the June 13, 2012 downgrade by Moody’s, the interest rate on the Company’s 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019 was further increased from 11.75%, as of the May 16, 2011 downgrade by both of the rating agencies, to 12.0%. The August 1, 2012 downgrade by S&P will increase the interest rate on these notes from 12.0% to 12.25%. The terms and conditions of future borrowings may also be impacted as a result of the ratings downgrades.

Acquisitions

The Company expects to pay approximately $70.5 million to acquire EDGAR Online. The Company anticipates funding this obligation through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company paid $29.0 million, net of cash acquired, to purchase Stratus. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company paid $37.4 million, net of cash acquired, to purchase LibreDigital, Genesis and Sequence. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company paid $55.9 million, net of cash acquired, to purchase the remaining equity of Helium. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company paid $19.6 million, net of cash acquired, to purchase Journalism Online. The Company financed the acquisitions with cash on hand.

Debt Issuances

On March 13, 2012, the Company issued $450.0 million of 8.25% senior notes due March 15, 2019. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2012. The net proceeds from the offering and cash on hand were used to repurchase $341.8 million of the 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015.

On June 1, 2011, the Company issued $600.0 million of 7.25% senior notes due May 15, 2018. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2011. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repurchase an initial $216.2 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019, $100.0 million of the 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2017 and $100.0 million of the 5.50% senior notes due May 15, 2015. The remaining net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes and to repay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. On September 28, 2011, the Company repurchased an additional $11.6 million of the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable debt and price risk on its fixed-rate debt. As of June 30, 2012, approximately 73.4% of the Company’s outstanding debt was comprised of fixed-rate debt. At June 30, 2012, the Company’s exposure to rate fluctuations on variable-interest borrowings was $1,003.0 million, including $658.0 million notional value of interest rate swap agreements (See Note 15, Derivatives, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and $345.0 million in borrowings under the Credit Agreement, international credit facilities and other long-term debt.

The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which it operates. The exposure to foreign currency movements is limited in most countries because the operating revenues and expenses of its various subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the

 

51


Table of Contents

country in which they operate. To the extent that borrowings, sales, purchases, revenues, expenses or other transactions are not in the local currency of the operating unit, the Company is exposed to currency risk and may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the currency risk. As of June 30, 2012, the aggregate notional amount of outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts was approximately $114.6 million (see Note 15, Derivatives, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Net unrealized gains from these foreign exchange forward contracts were $0.5 million at June 30, 2012. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company assesses market risk based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential loss in earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates. Using this sensitivity analysis, such changes would not have a material effect on interest income or expense and cash flows and would change the fair values of fixed rate debt at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 by approximately $125.5 million and $122.9 million, respectively.

These statements may include, or be preceded or followed by, the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “might,” “could,” “would,” “potential,” “possible,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “hope” or similar expressions. The Company claims the protection of the Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. The following important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, could affect the future results of the Company and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:

Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this document or the date of any document that may be incorporated by reference into this document.

We do not undertake and specifically decline 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 statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of June 30, 2012, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012 were effective in ensuring information required to be disclosed in our SEC reports was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that had materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(b) On May 3, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a program that authorizes the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2012. Share repurchases under the program may be made from time to time through a variety of methods as determined by the Company’s management. The repurchase authorizations do not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock or adopt any particular method of repurchase and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion.

 

As part of the share repurchase program the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) in 2011 with an investment bank under which the Company repurchased $500.0 million of its common stock, receiving an initial delivery of 19.9 million shares on May 10, 2011 and an additional 9.3 million shares on November 17, 2011.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Item 5: Other Information

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”), which prohibits the presentation of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires the presentation of net income, items of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2012. The table below reflects the retrospective application for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:
