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 that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements 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, 2009 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2010. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. 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.

2. Acquisitions

2009 Acquisitions

On June 18, 2009, the Company acquired Prospectus Central, LLC (“Prospectus”), an e-delivery company located in Fitzgerald, Georgia. The purchase price for Prospectus was $3.0 million. Prospectus’s operations are included in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment.

On January 2, 2009, the Company acquired the assets of PROSA, a web printing company located in Santiago, Chile. The purchase price for PROSA was approximately $23.6 million. PROSA’s operations are included in the International segment.

The operations of these acquired businesses are complementary to the Company’s existing products and services. As a result, the addition of these businesses is expected to improve the Company’s ability to serve customers, increase capacity utilization, and reduce management, procurement and manufacturing costs.

The PROSA and Prospectus 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 over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, none of which is tax deductible. Based on the valuations, the final purchase price allocations for these 2009 acquisitions were as follows:


Accounts receivable	$	2.4
Property, plant and equipment		9.2
Amortizable intangible assets		11.6
Goodwill		6.5
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		(2.5	)
Deferred taxes—net		(0.6	)

Net cash paid	$	26.6

6. Restructuring and Impairment Charges

Restructuring and Impairment Costs Charged to Results of Operations

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded the following net restructuring and impairment charges:


	March 31, 2010									March 31, 2009
	Employee Terminations			Other Charges		Impairment		Total		Employee Terminations		Other Charges		Impairment		Total
U.S. Print and Related Services	$	2.9		$	2.0	$	1.0	$	5.9	$	23.3	$	1.0	$	8.4	$	32.7

	$	9.2		$	5.3	$	1.0	$	15.5	$	39.0	$	2.4	$	12.8	$	54.2

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $9.2 million for employee termination costs for 504 employees, of whom 381 were terminated as of March 31, 2010, associated with the actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of certain operations within the business process outsourcing and Latin America reporting units within the International segment, as well as the continuing charges resulting from the closing of two Global Turnkey Solutions manufacturing facilities in 2009 within the International segment. Additionally, the Company incurred other restructuring charges, including lease termination and other facility closure costs of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company also recorded $1.0 million of impairment charges primarily for machinery and equipment associated with the facility closings. 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, internal expertise related to equipment and current marketplace conditions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $39.0 million for employee termination costs for 2,693 employees (all of whom were terminated as of March 31, 2010) associated with actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations. These actions included the closings of two catalog, magazine and retail insert manufacturing facilities, one book manufacturing facility and one digital solutions facility within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment. In addition, these actions included the closings of one Global Turnkey Solutions manufacturing facility and one European manufacturing facility within the International segment. Additionally, the Company incurred other restructuring charges, including lease termination and other facility closure costs of $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company also recorded $12.8 million of impairment charges primarily for machinery and equipment associated with the facility closings.

Restructuring Reserve

Activity impacting the Company’s restructuring reserve for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is as follows:


	December 31, 2009		Restructuring Costs Charged to Results of Operations		Foreign Exchange and Other			Cash Paid			March 31, 2010
Employee terminations	$	20.4	$	9.2	$	(0.5	)	$	(11.7	)	$	17.4
Other		120.5		5.3		(2.5	)		(63.0	)		60.3

Total	$	140.9	$	14.5	$	(3.0	)	$	(74.7	)	$	77.7

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

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)—(Continued)

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

$68.1 million of the total restructuring reserve is current and included in accrued liabilities at March 31, 2010, while the long-term portion of $9.6 million, primarily related to lease termination costs, is included in other noncurrent liabilities at March 31, 2010.

The Company anticipates that payments associated with these employee terminations will be substantially completed by March of 2011.

The restructuring liabilities classified as “other” consist of the estimated remaining payments related to the termination of a significant long-term customer contract in 2009, lease termination costs and other facility closing costs. The Company paid $57.5 million in January 2010 and expects to pay approximately $38.9 million, subject to changes in foreign exchange rates, in January 2011, related to the termination of the significant long-term customer contract. The Company transferred funds to restricted cash for the January 2011 payment. Payments on certain of these lease obligations are scheduled to continue until 2017. 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 Consolidated Financial Statements of future periods.

7. Employee Benefits

The components of the estimated pension and postretirement benefits expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010			2009
Pension expense
Service cost	$	20.1		$	17.4
Interest cost		46.0			44.0
Expected return on assets		(64.5	)		(63.6	)
Amortization, net		6.3			1.7

Net pension expense (benefit)	$	7.9		$	(0.5	)

Expected return on assets		(3.9	)		(3.9	)
Amortization, net		(2.4	)		(4.3	)

Net postretirement benefits expense	$	3.9		$	2.1

8. Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options and restricted stock units. The total compensation expense related to all share-based compensation plans was $8.2 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Stock Options

The Company granted 540,000 and 1,520,468 stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The fair value of these stock options was determined using the following assumptions:


	2010		2009
Expected volatility	35.61	%	29.67	%
Risk-free interest rate	2.75	%	2.27	%
Expected life (years)	6.25		6.25
Expected dividend yield	4.19	%	3.63	%

The grant date fair value of these options was $4.81 and $1.47 per stock option for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The following table is a summary of the Company’s stock option activity:


	Shares Under Option (Thousands)		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2009	4,168		$	20.17	6.4	$	26.6
Granted	540			19.89	9.9
Exercised	(188	)		10.20
Cancelled/forfeited/expired	(264	)		21.39

Outstanding at March 31, 2010	4,256		$	20.17	6.9	$	24.0

Exercisable at March 31, 2010	874		$	12.80	5.1	$	7.3

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. This amount will change in future periods based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock and the number of options outstanding.

Numerator:
Net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders	$	52.6	$	13.9
Denominator:
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		205.6		205.2
Dilutive options and awards(a)		3.4		1.5

Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding		209.0		206.7

(a)

Diluted net earnings per share attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders takes into consideration the dilution of certain unvested restricted stock awards and unexercised stock option awards. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, restricted stock units of 3.1 million and 3.9 million, respectively, were excluded as their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, options to purchase 3.5 million shares and 4.8 million shares, respectively, were anti-dilutive because the option exercise price exceeded the fair value of the stock.

12. Segment Information

The Company operates primarily in the printing industry, with related service offerings designed to offer customers complete solutions for communicating their messages to target audiences. The Company’s reportable segments reflect the management reporting structure of the organization and the manner in which the chief operating decision-maker regularly assesses information for decision-making purposes, including the allocation of resources. The Company’s segments and their products and service offerings are summarized below:

U.S. Print and Related Services

The U.S. Print and Related Services segment includes the Company’s U.S. printing operations, managed as one integrated platform, along with related logistics, premedia and print-management services. This segment’s products and related service offerings include magazines, catalogs, retail inserts, books, directories, financial print, direct mail, forms, labels, office products, premedia and logistics services.

International

The International segment includes the Company’s non-U.S. printing operations in Asia, Europe, Latin America and Canada. Additionally, this segment includes the Company’s business process outsourcing and Global Turnkey Solutions operations. Business process outsourcing provides transactional print and outsourcing services, statement printing, direct mail and print management services through its operations in Europe, Asia and North America. Global Turnkey Solutions provides outsourcing capabilities, including product configuration, customized kitting and order fulfillment for technology, medical device and other companies around the world through its operations in Europe, North America and Asia.

Corporate

Corporate consists of unallocated general and administrative activities and associated expenses including, in part, executive, legal, finance, information technology, human resources, certain facility costs and LIFO inventory provisions. In addition, certain costs and earnings of employee benefit plans, primarily components of net pension and postretirement benefits expense other than service cost, are included in Corporate and not allocated to operating segments.

The Company has disclosed income (loss) from operations as the primary measure of segment earnings (loss). This is the measure of profitability used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker and is most consistent with the presentation of profitability reported within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

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 twelve federal and state Superfund sites. In addition to the Superfund sites, the Company may also have the obligation to remediate five 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 Superfund 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 Superfund sites and the previously and currently owned facilities. While 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, 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 adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated annual 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 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 adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated annual results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

14. Debt

The Company’s debt consists of the following:


	March 31, 2010			December 31, 2009
4.95% senior notes due May 15, 2010	$	325.7		$	325.7

8.875% debentures due April 15, 2021		80.9			80.9
6.625% debentures due April 15, 2029		199.3			199.3
8.820% debentures due April 15, 2031		68.9			68.9
Other, including capital leases		19.5			23.7

Total debt		3,318.7			3,322.4
Less: current portion		(336.1	)		(339.9	)

Long-term debt	$	2,982.6		$	2,982.5

The fair values of the senior notes and debentures, which were 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 greater than its book value by approximately $177.6 million and $177.9 million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

15. Derivatives

All derivatives are recorded as other current assets or other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values with unrealized gains and losses 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. 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 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

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)—(Continued)

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

with the fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rate 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 March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $161.9 million and $437.0 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.

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the total fair value of the Company’s forward contracts and the accounts in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in which the fair value amounts are included are shown below:


	March 31, 2010		December 31, 2009
Derivatives not designated as hedges
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	0.8	$	1.3
Accrued liabilities		0.8		6.8

Terminated Derivatives

In May 2005, the Company terminated its interest rate lock agreements which were used to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates. This termination resulted in a loss of $12.9 million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, which was being recognized in interest expense over the term of the hedged forecasted interest payments. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company repurchased $174.2 million of the 4.95% senior notes due May 15, 2010 which were hedged as part of the interest rate lock agreements. A pre-tax loss of $2.7 million was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as a result of the change in expected forecasted interest payments for the senior notes due May 15, 2010. At March 31, 2010, a balance of $2.5 million remains in accumulated other comprehensive loss, of which $0.4 million is expected to be reclassified to earnings over the next twelve months.

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 plan assets and other postretirement plan assets, as well as forward contracts which are valued using market exchange rates. See Note 15 for further discussion on the fair value of the Company’s forward contracts as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

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 impairment charges. See Note 2 for further discussion on the fair value of assets and liabilities associated with acquisitions. There have been no significant impairment charges since December 31, 2009.

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

17. Income Taxes

As of March 31, 2010, it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within 12 months by as much as $27.9 million due to the resolution of audits or expirations of statutes of limitations related to U.S. federal and state tax positions.

18. New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”), which requires additional disclosures regarding transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as well as a more detailed reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements. Certain aspects of ASU 2010-06 were effective and adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2010. However, this adoption did not have and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, annual results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements” (“ASU 2010-09”), which amends the Subsequent Events Topic by no longer requiring an SEC filer to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASU 2010-09 was adopted in the first quarter of 2010 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, annual results of operations or cash flows.

Executive Summary

Financial Performance: Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

The changes in the Company’s income from operations, operating margin, net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders and net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2010, from the three months ended March 31, 2009, were due primarily to the following (in millions, except margin and per share data):


	Income from Operations			Operating Margin		Net Earnings Attributable to RR Donnelley Common Shareholders			Net Earnings Attributable to RR Donnelley Common Shareholders Per Diluted Share
For the three months ended March 31, 2009	$	87.4		3.6	%	$	13.9		$	0.07
2010 restructuring and impairment charges		(15.5	)	(0.6	%)		(10.6	)		(0.05	)
2009 restructuring and impairment charges		54.2		2.2	%		35.3			0.17
Acquisition-related expenses		(2.0	)	(0.1	%)		(1.8	)		(0.01	)
2010 Venezuela devaluation		—		—			(4.5	)		(0.02	)
Operations		21.7		0.9	%		20.3			0.09

For the three months ended March 31, 2010	$	145.8		6.0	%	$	52.6		$	0.25

2010 pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges: included charges of $9.2 million for employee termination costs, substantially all of which were associated with restructuring actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations and the exiting of certain business activities; $5.3 million of other restructuring costs; and $1.0 million for impairment of long-lived assets.

2009 pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges: included charges of $39.0 million for employee termination costs, substantially all of which were associated with restructuring actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations and the exiting of certain business activities; $2.4 million of other restructuring costs, primarily lease termination costs; and $12.8 million for impairment of long-lived assets.

Acquisition-related expenses: included pre-tax charges of $2.0 million related to legal, accounting and other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 associated with current year acquisitions contemplated. These types of expenses were less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

2010 Venezuela devaluation: currency devaluation in Venezuela resulted in a pre-tax loss of $8.9 million ($8.1 million after-tax) and an increase in loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $3.6 million.

Operations: reflected cost savings from restructuring actions and productivity efforts, partially offset by lower net sales. See further details in the review of operating results by segment that follows below.

First quarter overview

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company’s net sales trend continued to benefit from the economic recovery. On a consolidated basis, net sales declined approximately 1.6% from the first quarter of 2009, the smallest decline in the last six quarters. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulted in increases of net sales of $49.6 million or 2.0%. In addition to changes in foreign exchange rates, the improving trend reflected the production of mailings for the U.S. Census, increased business in Global Turnkey Solutions and Asia and increases in print and freight volumes along with growth in mail center and commingling services. These increases were more than offset by decreases in net sales primarily attributable to continued price pressure and reductions in pass-through paper sales in magazines, catalogs and retail inserts and books and directories. Further, the Company’s income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 increased by over 66% compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of lower restructuring and impairment charges, which drove 44 percentage points of the increase, and savings achieved from previous restructuring activities and productivity efforts.

On February 23, 2010, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire Bowne for approximately $481 million in cash. Bowne, a provider of shareholder and marketing communication services, is headquartered in New York, New York, and has operations in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia. The acquisition is expected to close in the second half of 2010 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval and approval of Bowne shareholders. The Company expects the combination with Bowne to expand and enhance the range of services that the Company offers to its customers, while creating an opportunity to provide its comprehensive line of products to Bowne’s clients. In addition, this acquisition is expected to be accretive to earnings within twelve months of closing.

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. The excess capacity created by declining industry volumes has resulted in intensified price competition in some product lines. Management expects that prices for the Company’s products and services will continue to be a focal point for customers in coming years. 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, 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. The Company also believes that its strong financial condition is important to customers focused on establishing or growing long-term relationships with a stable provider of print and related services. Especially in an uncertain economic environment, the Company’s financial strength is seen as a competitive advantage. The Company has made targeted acquisitions that offer customers greater capacity and flexibility and further secure the Company’s position as a leader in the industry.

As a substitute for print, the impact of digital technologies has been felt mainly in directories, forms and statement printing, as electronic communication and transaction technology has eliminated or devalued the role of many traditional paper forms. Electronic substitution has continued to accelerate in directory printing in part driven by environmental concerns and cost pressures at key customers. Despite rapid growth in the adoption of e-books, the Company does not believe there has been a significant impact on the volume of print, and management does not expect any significant reductions in the short-term. However, management does expect to see lower long-term growth in print book volume as e-book penetration continues to expand. 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.

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 growth goals. In addition, the pending acquisition of Bowne will result in additional restructuring charges.

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. However, the Company expects the seasonality impact in 2010 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, uses a wide variety of paper grades, formats, ink formulations and colors and does not rely on any one supplier. 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 used in the manufacturing process may affect the Company’s consolidated financial results. Recent strengthening of economic conditions, combined with paper industry capacity reductions, may cause prices to increase during 2010. 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 substantially all 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 to a large extent, but there is no assurance that market conditions will continue to enable the Company to successfully do so. In addition, 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.

The Company continues to monitor the impact of changes in the price of crude oil and other energy costs, which impacts the Company’s ink suppliers, logistics operations and manufacturing costs. Crude oil 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. 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 October 15, 2009, the U.S. Postal Service announced that it does not intend to seek a rate increase in 2010; however, on March 2, 2010, the U.S. Postal Service announced that they will seek a modest price increase effective in 2011. As a

leading provider of print logistics and the largest mailer of standard mail in the U.S., the Company works closely with the U.S. Postal Service and its customers on programs to minimize costs and ensure the viability of postal distribution. 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. In addition, the Company offers innovative products and services to minimize customers’ postal costs and has invested in equipment and technology to meet customer demand for these services.

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 three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to expected results as of October 31, 2009. In addition, management considered how other key assumptions, including discount rates used in the last fiscal year’s impairment analysis, could be impacted by recent market and economic events. Based on this interim assessment, management concluded that as of March 31, 2010, 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. A significant change in global economic conditions could result in changes to expectations of future financial results and key valuation assumptions. These changes could result in changes to management’s estimates of the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and could result in a review for impairment of goodwill prior to October 31, 2010, the Company’s next annual measurement date, and a potential corresponding impairment charge.

The funded status of the Company’s pension plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets and the level of certain market interest rates. Declines in the market value of securities held by the plans and decreases in discount rates could reduce their funded status and materially affect the level of pension expense and required contributions in 2011 and future years. In addition, the Company’s required funding may be affected by changes in pension regulations. The Company expects to make cash contributions of approximately $21.8 million to its pension plans and approximately $6.9 million to its postretirement plans in 2010, although additional non-required contributions could be made. While the Company cannot currently estimate the amount of pension plan contributions that will be required in 2011 and future years, larger contributions to pension plans are likely to be necessary.

Financial Review

In the financial review that follows, the Company discusses its consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows and certain other information. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AS

COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009

The following table shows the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:


	Three Months Ended March 31,

Income from operations	$	145.8	$	87.4	$	58.4		66.8	%

Consolidated

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010 decreased $40.5 million, or 1.6%, to $2,415.1 million versus the same period in the prior year. Changes in foreign exchange rates increased net sales by $49.6 million, or 2.0%, but this increase was more than offset by decreases in net sales primarily attributable to continued price pressure and reductions in pass-through paper sales in magazines, catalogs and retail inserts and books and directories. These decreases were partially offset by the increased sales from the production of mailing for the U.S. Census, increased business in Global Turnkey Solutions and Asia and increased freight volumes along with growth in mail center and commingling services in logistics.

Cost of sales decreased $41.1 million to $1,841.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 versus the same period in the prior year primarily due to volume decreases and higher recovery on by-products. Cost of sales as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased from 76.7% to 76.3%, reflecting continued productivity efforts, higher recovery on by-products and the impact of lower pass-through paper sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $9.7 million to $273.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 versus the same period in the prior year due to restructuring-driven cost reductions, lower sales commissions as a result of lower volume and lower bad debt expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased from 11.5% to 11.3%, reflecting continued productivity efforts.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a net restructuring and impairment provision of $15.5 million compared to $54.2 million in the same period of 2009. In 2010, these charges included $9.2 million for workforce reductions of 504 employees (of whom 381 were terminated as of March 31, 2010) associated with actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of certain operations within the business process outsourcing and Latin America reporting units within the International segment, as well as the continuing charges resulting from the closing of two Global Turnkey Solutions manufacturing facilities in 2009 within the International segment. In addition, the Company recorded $1.0 million of impairment charges of other long-lived assets and $5.3 million of other restructuring costs, including lease termination and other facility closure costs. Restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2009 included $39.0 million for workforce reductions of 2,693 employees (all of whom were terminated as of March 31, 2010) associated with actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations. These actions included the closings of two catalog, magazine and retail insert manufacturing facilities, one book manufacturing facility and one digital solutions facility within the U.S. Print and Related Services segment. In addition, these actions included the closings of one Global Turnkey Solutions manufacturing facility and one

European manufacturing facility within the International segment. Additionally, the Company recorded $12.8 million of impairment charges of other long-lived assets and $2.4 million of other restructuring costs, including lease termination and other facility closure costs. Management believes that certain restructuring activities will continue throughout the remainder of 2010, as the Company continues to streamline its manufacturing, sales and administrative operations.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $9.4 million to $138.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, primarily due to reduced capital expenditures in 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010. Depreciation and amortization included $24.7 million and $24.3 million of amortization of purchased intangibles related to customer relationships, patents, trade names, licenses and non-compete agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $145.8 million, an increase of 66.8% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The increase was primarily driven by the lower restructuring and impairment costs in 2010, procurement savings and benefits achieved from restructuring activities, partially offset by the declines in volumes, cost inflation and price pressures across both segments.

Net interest expense decreased by $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 versus the same period in 2009, primarily due to lower average borrowings.

Net investment and other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was an expense of $9.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded an $8.9 million loss related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency, of which $3.6 million increased the loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 40.0% compared to 41.4% in the same period of 2009. The lower effective tax rate in 2010 was due to an increased benefit from the domestic manufacturing deduction and a change in the mix of income across tax jurisdictions, partially offset by a $3.3 million charge associated with the enacted Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as modified by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, that eliminated the income tax deduction related to prescription drug benefits provided to retirees and reimbursed under the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy.

Net earnings attributable to RR Donnelley common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $52.6 million or $0.25 per diluted share compared to $13.9 million or $0.07 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2009. In addition to the factors described above, the per share results reflect an increase in weighted-average diluted shares outstanding of 2.3 million due to higher dilution resulting from increases in the stock price and the issuance of shares related to the vesting of restricted stock units and stock options.

The amounts included in the above table represent net sales by reporting unit and the descriptions above reflect the primary products or services provided by each. Included in these net sales amounts are sales of other products that may be produced within a reporting unit to meet customer needs and improve operating efficiency. 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 three months ended March 31, 2010 were $1,836.8 million, a decrease of $70.6 million, or 3.7%, compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease was primarily attributable to reductions in pass-through paper sales across the magazines, catalogs and retail inserts and books and directories reporting units and price declines across most reporting units. Sales of catalogs, retail inserts and magazines decreased due to reductions in pass-through paper sales and lower prices on contract renewals. Sales of variable printing increased due to the production of mailings for the U.S. Census, partially offset by reduced fulfillment and distribution volume from healthcare customers. Sales of books and directories decreased primarily as a result of reductions in pass-through paper sales, lower prices and lower volume in directories. Sales of forms and labels decreased slightly due to continued price pressure and lower forms volume, partially offset by increased sales of labels. Commercial printing sales decreased due to increased price pressure. Sales of logistics services increased primarily due to increases in print and freight volumes along with growth in mail center and commingling services. Sales of financial printing remained relatively consistent from year to year, as increased volume in capital market transactions were generally offset by lower investment management and compliance volume. Sales of office products decreased slightly due to lower volume from large retail customers. Finally, sales of premedia services increased slightly due to volume from new customers.

U.S. Print and Related Services segment income from operations increased $49.4 million mainly driven by lower restructuring and impairment charges. In addition, cost reductions resulting from restructuring actions and productivity initiatives were partially offset by volume and price declines discussed above. Operating margins in the U.S. Print and Related Services segment increased from 6.0% to 8.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, of which 1.4 percentage points were attributable to the lower restructuring and impairment charges. The remaining margin increase resulted from the cost reductions discussed above and higher recovery on by-products, which more than offset the impact of lower volume, prices and cost inflation.

Total International	$	578.3	$	548.2	$	30.1		5.5	%

Net sales for the International segment for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $578.3 million, an increase of $30.1 million, or 5.5%, compared to the same period in 2009. This increase was due to changes in foreign exchange rates which impacted net sales $49.1 million, or 9.0%. Business process outsourcing net sales increased slightly due to changes in foreign exchange rates and higher volume from a new customer contract, partially offset by the lower volume resulting from the termination of a significant customer contract in 2009. Sales in Asia increased due to increased business, particularly in books, catalogs and retail inserts exported to the U.S. and Europe, partially offset by lower prices on print packaging products. In Latin America, net sales decreased due to disruptions caused by the Chilean earthquake, the impact of the currency devaluation in Venezuela and continued decreases in demand for business forms, particularly in Brazil. Net sales in Europe increased due to changes in foreign exchange rates and increased technology manuals and other packaging products volume, partially offset by declining prices. Global Turnkey Solutions net sales increased due to higher volume from large existing customers, volume from a new customer and changes in foreign exchange rates. The increase in net sales in Canada was due to changes in foreign exchange rates, partially offset by lower statement printing volume.

Income from operations increased $17.2 million primarily due to lower restructuring and impairment charges and increased business in Global Turnkey Solutions and Asia. Operating margins as a percentage of sales increased from 3.0% to 5.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, of which 1.7 percentage points were due to lower restructuring and impairment charges. The remaining increase resulted from cost reductions driven by restructuring actions and productivity improvements and the increased business in Global Turnkey Solutions and Asia.

Corporate

Corporate operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $51.7 million, an increase of $8.2 million compared to the same period in 2009. The increase was driven by higher employee benefit costs, partially offset by lower bad debt expense, lower restructuring and impairment charges of $3.1 million and cost reductions from productivity and restructuring actions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following describes the Company’s cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $75.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $538.7 million for the same period last year. 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. The decrease in operating cash flow reflects less benefit from working capital reductions driven by volume declines, the non-recurring tax refund of $157.8 million in 2009, the $57.5 million payment in January 2010 related to the termination of the long-term customer contract in 2009 and incentive compensation payments in the first quarter of 2010 compared to no such payments in 2009, partially offset by higher operating earnings in 2010 driven by cost reductions from productivity and restructuring actions.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $63.3 million compared to $72.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Net cash used for the acquisition of PROSA in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $23.6 million. The Company used $12.0 million to purchase a long-term investment and $11.7 million to purchase a short-term deposit during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Capital expenditures were $39.9 million, a decrease of $15.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2009, reflecting lower spending on capacity growth due to the reduction in production volumes resulting from the recession. The Company continues to fund capital expenditures primarily through cash provided by operations. The Company expects that capital expenditures for 2010 will be approximately $200 million.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $51.6 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $249.3 million in the same period of 2009. In the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company received proceeds of $400.0 million from the issuance of long-term senior notes in order to pay down commercial paper and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Facility) in anticipation of the maturity of $400.0 million in senior notes due April 1, 2009. Net borrowings under the Facility were $200.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The net change in short-term debt was a cash outflow of $293.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2009 primarily due to the pay down of commercial paper.

Dividends

On January 7, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per common share payable to RR Donnelley shareholders of record on January 22, 2010, and the total amount of $53.4 million was paid on March 1, 2010. On April 14, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per common share payable on June 1, 2010 to RR Donnelley shareholders of record on April 29, 2010.

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 are the Company’s primary source of liquidity and are expected to be used for, among other things, interest and principal on the Company’s 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, additional acquisitions and future common stock or debt repurchases based upon market conditions.

Cash and cash equivalents of $451.3 million as of March 31, 2010 included $78.7 million that were readily available in the U.S. and $372.6 million that were available at international locations, most of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxes and some of which is subject to local country taxes if repatriated to the U.S. In addition, repatriation of some foreign cash is further restricted by local laws. The Company maintains a cash pooling structure that enables several participating international locations to draw on the Company’s overseas cash resources to meet local liquidity needs. In addition, 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 $2.0 billion committed revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that can be used for general corporate purposes, including letters of credit and as a backstop for the Company’s commercial paper program. The Facility is subject to a number of restrictive covenants that, in part, limit the ability of the Company to create liens on assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, or dispose of assets. The financial covenants require a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. Based on the Company’s results of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 and existing term debt structure, as shown in the table below, the Company could utilize approximately $1.2 billion of the $2.0 billion Facility and not be in violation of those financial covenants. A further reduction in earnings year over year would likely further decrease the amount available under the Facility. However, the Company does not expect the reduction in availability on the Facility to impact its ability to meet its liquidity requirements. In addition, borrowings under the Facility are subject to certain conditions, all of which were met at March 31, 2010. The Company pays an annual commitment fee of 0.10%, and LIBOR plus a spread on borrowings under the Facility. This Facility has a maturity date of January 6, 2012. As of March 31, 2010, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Facility. The Company also has $133.9 million in credit facilities outside of the U.S., most of which are uncommitted. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $41.8 million in outstanding letters of credit, of which $35.9 million reduced availability under the Facility and $0.4 million reduced availability under uncommitted facilities outside of the U.S. As of March 31, 2010, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s commercial paper program. The failure of a financial institution supporting the Facility would reduce the size of our committed facility unless a replacement institution were added. Currently, the Facility is supported by 17 U.S. and international financial institutions. The current availability on the Facility is shown in the following table:

The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of March 31, 2010, and is expected to remain in compliance based on management’s estimates of operating and financial results for 2010 and the foreseeable future; however, as of March 31, 2010, as shown in the table above, the Company may borrow an additional $1.2 billion of the $2.0 billion currently not utilized under the Facility, as borrowings above $1.2 billion would cause the Company to violate certain debt covenants in the Facility. In addition, the Company met all the conditions required to borrow under the Facility as of March 31, 2010 and management expects the Company to continue to meet the applicable borrowing conditions.

On March 31, 2010, Moody’s Investors Service reaffirmed the Company’s senior unsecured debt ratings and short-term credit rating at Baa3 and P-3, respectively. On April 1, 2010, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services reaffirmed the Company’s long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings at BBB and maintained the Company’s short-term credit rating at A-3.

In the third quarter of 2009, the Company terminated a significant long-term customer contract in the business process outsourcing reporting unit within the International segment. The Company expects to pay approximately $118.6 million in related restructuring costs, of which $22.2 million was paid in the third quarter of 2009, $57.5 million was paid in January 2010 and $38.9 million, subject to changes in foreign exchange rates, is expected to be paid in January 2011. The $38.9 million is reflected as restricted cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2010.

The Company has $325.7 million of senior notes maturing May 15, 2010. In addition, the Company expects to pay approximately $481 million to acquire Bowne. The Company anticipates funding these obligations with cash on hand, borrowings under the Facility or through the issuance of debt securities.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable debt and price risk on its fixed-rate debt. As of March 31, 2010, approximately 99.6% of the Company’s outstanding term debt was comprised of fixed-rate debt. At March 31, 2010, the Company’s exposure to rate fluctuations on variable-interest borrowings was limited to $12.0 million, most of which were borrowings under international credit facilities.

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk by balancing its exposure to fixed and variable interest rates while attempting to minimize interest costs. On April 9, 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively change the interest rate on $600 million of its fixed-rate senior notes to floating rate LIBOR plus a basis point spread. These interest rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges against changes in value of the Company’s 4.95% senior notes due April 1, 2014 attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate.

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 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 currency forward contracts to hedge the currency risk. As of March 31, 2010, the aggregate notional amount of outstanding forward contracts was approximately $161.9 million. Net unrealized losses from these foreign currency contracts were less than $0.1 million at March 31, 2010. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

We have made forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company. Generally, forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future actions, events, or results of operations of the Company.

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 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:

•

the volatility and disruption of the capital and credit markets, and adverse changes in the global economy;

•

successful execution and integration of acquisitions, including the pending acquisition of Bowne;

•

successful negotiation of future acquisitions; and the ability of the Company to integrate operations successfully and achieve enhanced earnings or effect cost savings;

•

the ability to implement comprehensive plans for the integration of sales forces, cost containment, asset rationalization, system integration and other key strategies;

•

the ability to divest non-core businesses;

•

future growth rates in the Company’s core businesses;

•

competitive pressures in all markets in which the Company operates;

•

the ability to secure and defend intellectual property rights and, when appropriate, license required technology;

•

customer expectations and financial strength;

•

performance issues with key suppliers;

•

changes in the availability or costs of key materials (such as ink, paper and fuel) or in the prices received for the sale of by-products;

•

changes in ratings of the Company’s debt securities, as a result of financial community and rating agency perceptions of the Company’s business, operations and financial condition and the industry in which the Company operates;

•

the ability to generate cash flow or obtain financing to fund growth;

•

the effect of inflation, changes in currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates;

•

the effect of changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards, trade, tax, environmental compliance (including the emission of greenhouse gases and other air pollution controls), health and welfare benefits (including the recently enacted Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as modified by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, and further healthcare reform initiatives), price controls and other regulatory matters and the cost, which could be substantial, of complying with these laws and regulations;

•

contingencies related to actual or alleged environmental contamination;

•

the retention of existing, and continued attraction of additional, customers and key employees;

•

the effect of a material breach of security of any of the Company’s systems;

•

the effect of labor disruptions or labor shortages;

•

the effect of economic and political conditions on a regional, national or international basis;

•

the effect of economic weakness and constrained advertising;

•

uncertainty about future economic conditions;

•

adverse outcomes of pending and threatened litigation; and

•

other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

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.

Consequently, readers of this Quarterly Report should consider these forward-looking statements only as our current plans, estimates and beliefs. 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. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report to reflect any new events or any change in conditions or circumstances.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See Item 2 of Part I under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

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 March 31, 2010, 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 March 31, 2010 were effective in ensuring information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report 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.

Except as noted below, 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 March 31, 2010 that had materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company began processing its U.S. employee payroll internally. Previously, the Company outsourced its payroll processing functions to a third party. In connection with this change, the Company has modified as appropriate the design, operation and documentation of certain internal controls over financial reporting that were impacted by this change.
