On October 4, 2004, an affiliate of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (“KKR”) and affiliates of DLJ Merchant Banking Partners III, L.P. (“DLJMBP III”) completed a series of transactions which created a marketing and publishing services enterprise (the “Transactions”) through the combination of Jostens, Inc. (“Jostens”), Von Hoffmann Corporation (“Von Hoffmann”) and AKI, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Arcade”).

Prior to the Transactions, Von Hoffmann and Arcade were each controlled by affiliates of DLJ Merchant Banking Partners II, L.P. ("DLJMBP II"), and DLJMBP III owned approximately 82.5% of Visant Holding Corp.’s (“Holdco”) outstanding equity, with the remainder held by other co-investors and certain members of management. Upon consummation of the Transactions, an affiliate of KKR invested $256.1 million and was issued equity interests representing approximately 49.6% of Holdco’s voting interest and 45.0% of Holdco’s economic interest, while affiliates of DLJMBP III held equity interests representing approximately 41.0% of Holdco’s voting interest and 45.0% of Holdco’s economic interest, with the remainder held by other co-investors and certain members of management. As of July 2, 2011, affiliates of KKR and DLJMBP III (the "Sponsors") held approximately 49.2% and 41.1%, respectively, of Holdco’s voting interest, while each continued to hold approximately 44.7% of Holdco’s economic interest. As of July 2, 2011, the other co-investors held approximately 8.4% of the voting interest and 9.1% of the economic interest of Holdco, and members of management held approximately 1.3% of the voting interest and approximately 1.5% of the economic interest of Holdco (exclusive of exercisable options). Visant is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete, evidenced by an agreement with the respective customer, delivery and acceptance has occurred, collectability is probable and pricing is fixed or determinable. Revenue is recognized (1) when products are shipped (if shipped free on board “FOB” shipping point), (2) when products are delivered (if shipped FOB destination) or (3) as services are performed as determined by contractual agreement, but in all cases only when risk of loss has transferred to the customer and the Company has no further performance obligations.

Cost of Products Sold

Cost of products sold primarily includes the cost of paper and other materials, direct and indirect labor and related benefit costs, depreciation of production assets and shipping and handling costs.

Shipping and Handling

Net sales include amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs. Costs incurred for shipping and handling are recorded in cost of products sold.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred. These costs primarily include salaries and related benefits of sales and administrative personnel, sales commissions, amortization of intangibles and professional fees such as audit and consulting fees.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Selling and administrative expenses included advertising expense of $1.7 million for each of the quarters ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010. Advertising expense totaled $3.7 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 and $3.3 million for the six months ended July 3, 2010.

Warranty Costs

Provisions for warranty costs related to Jostens’ scholastic products, particularly class rings due to their lifetime warranty, are recorded based on historical information and current trends in manufacturing costs. The provision related to the lifetime warranty is based on the number of rings manufactured in the prior school year. The total net warranty costs on rings were $1.3 million for each of the three-month periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010. For the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, the total net warranty costs were $2.7 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Warranty repair costs for rings manufactured in the current school year are expensed as incurred. Accrued warranty costs included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets were approximately $0.6 million as of each of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense related to all equity awards granted, including awards modified, repurchased or cancelled based on the fair values of the awards at the grant date. Visant recognized total stock-based compensation expense of approximately $3.4 million and $5.9 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended July 2, 2011, respectively. Stock-based compensation is included in selling and administrative expenses. Refer to Note 15, Stock-based Compensation, for further details.

Mezzanine Equity

Certain management stockholder agreements contain a purchase feature pursuant to which, in the event the holder’s employment terminates as a result of the death or permanent disability (as defined in the agreement) of the holder, the holder (or his/her estate, in the case of death) has the option to require that the common shares or vested options be purchased from the holder (estate) and settled in cash. These equity instruments are considered temporary equity and have been classified as mezzanine equity on the balance sheet as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which expanded the required disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance requires (1) separate disclosure of the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements along with the reasons for such transfers, (2) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately in the reconciliation for Level 3 fair value measurements, (3) fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and (4) disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. This guidance became effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlement on a gross basis, which became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more-likely-than-not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more-likely-than-not that a goodwill impairment exists, consideration should be made as to whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on its financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to business combinations entered into by an entity that is material on an individual or aggregate basis. These amendments clarify existing guidance that, if an entity presents comparative financial statements that include a material business combination, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This guidance became effective, on a prospective basis, for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the first annual reporting period after December 15, 2010. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04 (“ASU 2011-04”) which generally provides a uniform framework for fair value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). Additional disclosure requirements in ASU 2011-04 include: (1) for Level 3 fair value measurements, quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used by the entity and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs, (2) for an entity’s use of a nonfinancial asset that is different from the asset’s highest and best use, the reason for the difference, (3) for financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, the fair value hierarchy level in which the fair value measurements were determined and (4) the disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on its financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU 2011-05”) which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This new guidance amends existing guidance by allowing only two options for presenting the components of net income and other comprehensive income: (1) in a single continuous financial statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or (2) in two separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a separate statement of other comprehensive income.

Table of Contents

Also, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income must be presented on the face of the financial statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on its financial statements.

(“Rock Creek”) for a total purchase price of $5.4 million, including $4.7 million paid in cash at closing and a subsequent working capital adjustment and $0.7 million related to a contingent consideration arrangement subject to Rock Creek achieving a certain revenue target through December 2010. As of January 1, 2011, the Company determined that no payment related to the earn out provision would be made, and as a result, an adjustment was made to earnings at that time.

Precious Metals Consignment Arrangement

Jostens has a precious metals consignment agreement with a major financial institution whereby it currently has the ability to obtain up to the lesser of a certain specified quantity of precious metals and $45.0 million in dollar value in consigned inventory. As required by the terms of the agreement, Jostens does not take title to consigned inventory until payment. Accordingly, Jostens does not include the value of consigned inventory or the corresponding liability in its consolidated financial statements. The value of consigned inventory at July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 was $28.5 million and $31.5 million, respectively. The agreement does not have a stated term, and it can be terminated by either party upon 60 days written notice. Additionally, Jostens incurred expenses for consignment fees related to this facility of $0.3 million and $0.2 million for each of the three-month periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. The consignment fees expensed for the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 were $0.5 and $0.4 million, respectively. The obligations under the consignment agreement are guaranteed by Visant.

 

8. Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including the Company’s own credit risk.

 

10


Table of Contents

The disclosure requirements around fair value establish a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which are determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

 

   

Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

 

   

Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

   

Level 3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The Company does not have financial assets or financial liabilities that are currently measured and reported on the balance sheet on a fair value basis except as noted in Note 11, Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities.

In addition to financial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company is required to record non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. During the six months ended July 2, 2011, certain assets were recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. Long-lived assets were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy. For the six-month period ended July 2, 2011, long-lived assets with a carrying value of $8.4 million exceeded expected cash flows and were written down to their fair value of $4.1 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $4.3 million. The fair value for the long-lived assets held and used was based on quoted purchase agreements with third parties in the case of Level 2 inputs and management’s estimated values in the case of Level 3 inputs. The following table provides information by level for non-financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value during 2011 on a nonrecurring basis.

In addition to the methods and assumptions the Company uses to record the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments as discussed above, the Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments, which are not recorded at fair value on the balance sheet as of July 2, 2011. As of July 2, 2011, the fair value of the Visant 10.00% senior notes due 2017 (the “Senior Notes”) was estimated based on quoted market prices for identical instruments in inactive markets. The fair value of the Senior Notes, with a principal amount of $750.0 million, approximated $763.1 million. As of July 2, 2011, the fair value of the term loan B facility under Visant’s senior secured credit facilities maturing in 2016 was estimated based on quoted market prices for similar instruments in inactive markets. The fair value of the term loan B facility, with a principal amount of $1,240.6 million, approximated $1,240.2 million.

As of January 1, 2011, the fair value of the Senior Notes was estimated based on quoted market prices for identical instruments in inactive markets. The fair value of the Senior Notes, with a principal amount of $750.0 million, approximated $796.9 million. As of January 1, 2011, the fair value of the term loan B facility under Visant’s senior secured credit facilities was estimated based on quoted market prices for similar instruments in inactive markets. The fair value of the term loan B facility, with a principal amount of $1,246.9 million, approximated $1,262.6 million.

In connection with the refinancing consummated by Visant on September 22, 2010 (the “2010 Refinancing”), Visant entered into senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Facilities”), among Visant, as borrower, Jostens Canada, as Canadian borrower, Visant Secondary Holdings Corp. (“Visant Secondary”), as guarantor, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and Credit Suisse AG, Toronto Branch, as Canadian administrative agent, for a term loan B facility in an aggregate amount of $1,246.9 million (the “Term Loan Facility”), a revolving credit facility expiring in 2015 consisting of a $165.0 million U.S. revolving credit facility available to Visant and

 

12


Table of Contents

its subsidiaries and a $10.0 million Canadian revolving credit facility available to Jostens Canada (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility can also be used for the issuance of up to $35.0 million of letters of credit (inclusive of a Canadian letter of credit facility). The Credit Facilities allow Visant, subject to certain conditions, to incur additional term loans under the Term Loan Facility in either case in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300.0 million, which additional term loans will have the same security and guarantees as the Term Loan Facility. Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

Visant’s obligations under the Credit Facilities are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed jointly and severally by Visant Secondary and all of Visant’s material current and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. The obligations of Jostens Canada under the Credit Facilities are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed jointly and severally by Visant Secondary, Visant, Visant’s material current and future domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries and by any future Canadian subsidiaries of Visant. Visant’s obligations under the Credit Facilities and the guarantees are secured by substantially all of Visant’s assets and substantially all of the assets of Visant Secondary and Visant’s material current and future domestic subsidiaries. The obligations of Jostens Canada under the Credit Facilities and the guarantees are also secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Jostens Canada and any future Canadian subsidiaries of Visant.

The Credit Facilities require that Visant not exceed a maximum total leverage ratio, that it meet a minimum interest coverage ratio and that it abide by a maximum capital expenditure limitation. In addition, the Credit Facilities contain certain restrictive covenants which, among other things, limit Visant’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens, pay dividends, prepay subordinated and senior unsecured debt, make investments, merge or consolidate, change the business, amend the terms of its subordinated and senior unsecured debt, engage in certain dispositions of assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and engage in certain other activities customarily restricted in such agreements. It also contains certain customary events of default, subject to applicable grace periods, as appropriate.

On March 1, 2011, Visant announced the completion of the repricing of the Term Loan Facility (the “Repricing”) providing for the incurrence of new term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1,246.9 million, with the proceeds of the new term loans, together with cash on hand, being used to repay the existing term B loans outstanding in full. The amended term loan B facility provides for an interest rate for each term loan based upon LIBOR or an alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus a spread of 4.00% or 3.00%, respectively, with a 1.25% LIBOR floor. In connection with the amendment, Visant was required to pay a prepayment premium of 1% of the outstanding principal amount of the term loan facility along with certain other fees and expenses. A 1% prepayment premium will be payable in respect of subsequent repricing events, if any, occurring on or prior to March 1, 2012.

As of July 2, 2011, the annual interest rate under the Revolving Credit Facility was LIBOR plus 5.25% or an ABR plus 4.25% (or, in the case of Canadian dollar denominated loans, the bankers’ acceptance discount rate plus 5.25% or the Canadian prime rate plus 4.25% (subject to a floor of the one-month Canadian Dealer Offered Rate plus 1.0%)), in each case, with step-downs based on the total leverage ratio. To the extent that the interest rates on the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are determined by reference to LIBOR, the LIBOR component of such interest rates is subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.75%.

As of July 2, 2011, there was $12.3 million in the form of outstanding letters of credit leaving $162.7 million available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. Visant is obligated to pay commitment fees of 0.75% on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, with a step-down to 0.50% if the total leverage ratio is below 5.00 to 1.00.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes as part of the 2010 Refinancing, Visant and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined below) entered into an Indenture among Visant, the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of Visant’s existing and future domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries (“U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors”). Interest on the notes accrues at the rate of 10.00% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 and commenced on April 1, 2011, to holders of record on the immediately preceding March 15 and September 15.

The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Visant and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors and rank (i) equally in right of payment with any existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of Visant and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors; (ii) senior to all of Visant’s and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors’ existing and any of Visant’s and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors’ future subordinated indebtedness; (iii) effectively junior to all of Visant’s existing and future secured obligations and the existing and future secured obligations of the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors, including indebtedness under the Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such obligations; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all liabilities of Visant’s existing and future subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are redeemable, in

 

13


Table of Contents

whole or in part, under certain circumstances. Upon the occurrence of certain change of control events, Visant must offer to purchase the Senior Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any.

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit among other things, the ability of Visant and its restricted subsidiaries to (i) incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends on or make other distributions or repurchase capital stock or make other restricted payments, (iii) make investments, (iv) limit dividends or other payments by restricted subsidiaries to Visant or other restricted subsidiaries, (v) create liens on pari passu or subordinated indebtedness without securing the notes, (vi) sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Visant’s assets, (vii) enter into certain transactions with affiliates and (viii) designate Visant’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The Indenture also contains customary events of default, including the failure to make timely payments on the Senior Notes or other material indebtedness, the failure to satisfy certain covenants and specified events of bankruptcy and insolvency.

 

11. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company’s involvement with derivative financial instruments is limited principally to managing well-defined interest rate and foreign currency exchange risks. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts may be used to hedge the impact of currency fluctuations primarily on inventory purchases denominated in Euros. The Company has entered into foreign currency forward contracts, from time to time, for certain forecasted transactions denominated in Euros in order to manage the volatility associated with these transactions and limit its exposure to currency fluctuations between the contract date and ultimate settlement. The foreign currency forward contracts are 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. The Company did not enter into any such transactions for the six months ended July 2, 2011. The aggregate notional value of the forward contracts at July 3, 2010 was $2.0 million. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts was determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and was valued using market exchange rates.

As of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, 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:

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Forward Purchase Contracts

The Company is subject to market risk associated with changes in the price of precious metals. To mitigate the commodity price risk, the Company may from time to time enter into forward contracts to purchase gold, platinum and silver based upon the estimated ounces needed to satisfy projected customer demand. As of July 2, 2011, the Company entered into purchase commitment contracts totaling $1.1 million with delivery dates occurring through 2011. The forward purchase contracts are considered normal purchases and therefore are not subject to the requirements of derivative accounting. As of July 2, 2011, the fair market value of open precious metal forward contracts was $1.0 million based on quoted future prices for each contract.

 

13. Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries are included in the consolidated federal income tax filing of its indirect parent company, Holdco, and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company determines and allocates its income tax provision under the separate-return method except for the effects of certain provisions of the U.S. tax code which are accounted for on a consolidated group basis. Income tax amounts payable or receivable among members of the controlled group are settled based on the filing of income tax returns and the cash requirements of the respective members of the consolidated group.

The Company has recorded an income tax provision for the six months ended July 2, 2011 based on its best estimate of the consolidated effective tax rate applicable for the entire year. The estimated full-year consolidated effective tax rate for 2011 is 46.1% before consideration of the effects of $0.5 million of net tax accruals considered a current period tax expense. The current period tax expense includes $0.5 million of net tax and interest accruals for unrecognized tax benefits, $0.3 million of tax benefit related to adjustments to reflect tax rates at which the Company expects deferred tax assets and liabilities to be realized or settled in the future as a result of changes in certain state income tax rates, and $0.3 million of other net tax expense accruals. The combined effect of the annual estimated consolidated effective tax rate and the net current period tax adjustments resulted in an effective tax rate of 46.8% for the six-month period ended July 2, 2011.

For the comparable six-month period ended July 3, 2010, the effective income tax rate was 37.2%. The increase in the effective income tax rate from 2010 to 2011 was primarily due to the loss of the deduction for domestic manufacturing for 2011 as a result of the carryforward tax effects of the net operating loss generated in 2010 by the U.S. federal tax filing entity, Holdco, which includes its consolidated subsidiaries, including Visant and its subsidiaries. The increase in the effective tax rate was also impacted by reduced utilization at the consolidated group level of foreign tax credits in connection with foreign earnings repatriations anticipated for 2011. For the six-month period ended July 3, 2010, the effective tax rate was also favorably impacted by the nonrecurring effect of the Canada Revenue Agency (the “CRA”) decision to withdraw its transfer price assessment for Jostens for the taxable periods 1996 and 1997 and refund certain amounts.

President Obama’s administration has proposed significant changes to U.S. tax laws for U.S. corporations doing business outside the United States, including a proposal to defer certain tax deductions allocable to non-U.S. earnings until those earnings are repatriated. It is unclear whether the proposed tax changes will be enacted or, if enacted, what the ultimate scope of the changes will be. If enacted as currently proposed, the Company does not believe the changes will have a material adverse tax effect on its results because the Company’s repatriation practice is to distribute substantially all of its non-U.S. earnings on an annual basis.

During the six-month period ended July 2, 2011, the Company provided net tax and interest accruals for unrecognized tax benefits of $0.5 million consisting of $0.7 million of current income tax expense and $0.2 million of deferred income tax benefit. At July 2, 2011, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefit liability totaled $21.1 million, including interest and penalty accruals totaling $3.6 million, all of which were included in noncurrent liabilities except for $0.5 million of tax and interest accruals included in current income taxes payable. At January 1, 2011, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefit liability totaled $20.4 million, including interest and penalty accruals of $3.3 million, substantially all of which were included in noncurrent liabilities.

The Company’s income tax filings for 2005 to 2009 are subject to examination in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction. During 2009, the Company agreed to certain audit adjustments in connection with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) examination of the Company’s tax filings for 2005 and 2006. The settlement resulted in only minor adjustments. The IRS

Table of Contents

also proposed certain transfer price adjustments with which the Company disagreed in order to preserve its right to seek relief from double taxation with the applicable U.S. and French tax authorities. The Company is also subject to examination in state and certain foreign tax jurisdictions for the 2005 to 2010 periods, none of which was individually material. The Company’s Canadian income tax filings for 2007 and 2008 are currently under examination by the CRA. Though subject to uncertainty, the Company believes it has made appropriate provisions for all outstanding issues for all open years and in all applicable jurisdictions. Due to the potential for resolution of the Company’s current federal examination and the expiration of the related statute of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefit liability could decrease within the next twelve months by a range of zero to $9.0 million.

As of January 1, 2011, the Company did not expect to have an obligation to contribute to its qualified pension plans in 2011 due to the funded status of the plans. This expectation had not changed as of July 2, 2011, but the Company continues to monitor its obligation in light of market conditions. For the six months ended July 2, 2011, the Company did not make any contributions to its qualified pension plans and contributed $1.2 million and $0.1 million to its non-qualified pension plans and postretirement welfare plans, respectively. The contributions to the non-qualified pension and the postretirement welfare plans were consistent with the amounts anticipated as of January 1, 2011.

15. Stock-based Compensation

2003 Stock Incentive Plan

The 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”) was approved by Holdco’s Board of Directors and was effective as of October 30, 2003. The 2003 Plan permits Holdco to grant to key employees and certain other persons stock options and stock awards and provides for a total of 288,023 shares of common stock for issuance of options and awards to employees of Holdco and its subsidiaries and a total of 10,000 shares of common stock for issuance of options and awards to directors and other persons providing services to Holdco. As of July 2, 2011, there were 288,648 shares in total available for grant under the 2003 Plan. The maximum grant to any one person must not exceed 70,400 shares in the aggregate. Holdco does not currently intend to make any additional grants under the 2003 Plan.

Option grants consist of “time options”, which vest and become exercisable in annual installments over the first five years following the date of grant, and/or “performance options”, which vest and become exercisable over the first five years following the date of grant at varying levels based on the achievement of certain EBITDA targets, and in any event by the eighth anniversary of the date of grant. The performance vesting includes certain carryforward provisions if targets are not achieved in a particular fiscal year and performance in a subsequent fiscal year satisfies cumulative performance targets, subject to certain conditions. Upon the occurrence of a “change in control” (as defined in the 2003 Plan), the unvested portion of any time option will immediately become vested and exercisable, and the vesting and exercisability of the unvested portion of any performance option may accelerate depending on the timing of the change of control and return on DLJMBP III’s equity investment in Holdco, all as provided under the 2003 Plan. A “change in control” under the 2003 Plan is defined as: (i) any person or other entity (other than any of Holdco’s subsidiaries), including any “person” as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, other than certain of the DLJMBP funds or affiliated parties thereof, becoming the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, by way of merger, consolidation or other business combination, of securities of Holdco representing more than 51% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of Holdco (or its successor) normally entitled to vote for the election of directors of Holdco or (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the property or assets of Holdco to any unaffiliated person or entity other than one of Holdco’s subsidiaries is consummated. The Transactions did not constitute a change of control under the 2003 Plan. Options issued under the 2003 Plan expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date. The shares underlying the options are subject to certain transfer and other restrictions set forth in a management stockholders agreement dated July 29, 2003, by and among Holdco and certain holders of the capital stock of Holdco. Participants under the 2003 Plan also agree to certain restrictive covenants with respect to confidential information learned in their employment and certain non-competition obligations in connection with their receipt of options. All outstanding options to purchase Holdco common stock continued following the closing of the Transactions.

2004 Stock Option Plan

In connection with the closing of the Transactions, Holdco established the 2004 Stock Option Plan, which permits Holdco to grant to key employees and certain other persons of Holdco and its subsidiaries various equity-based awards, including stock options and restricted stock. The plan, currently known as the Third Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan for Key Employees of Visant Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “2004 Plan”), provides for the issuance of a total of 510,230 shares of Holdco Class A Common Stock (“Class A Common Stock”). As of July 2, 2011, there were 126,188 shares available for grant under the 2004 Plan. Shares related to grants that are forfeited, terminated, cancelled or expire unexercised become available for new grants. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Marc L. Reisch, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and President, received awards of stock options and restricted stock under the 2004 Plan. Additional members of management have also received grants under the 2004 Plan.

Option grants consist of “time options”, which fully vested and became exercisable in annual installments through 2009 (for those options granted in 2004 and 2005), and/or “performance options”, which vest and become exercisable following the date of grant based upon the achievement of certain EBITDA and other performance targets, and in any event by the eighth anniversary of the date of grant. The performance vesting includes certain carryforward provisions if targets are not achieved in a particular fiscal year and performance in a subsequent fiscal year satisfies cumulative performance targets. Upon the occurrence of a “change in control” (as defined under the 2004 Plan), the unvested portion of any time option will immediately become vested and exercisable, and the vesting and exercisability of the unvested portion of any performance option may accelerate if certain EBITDA or other performance measures have been satisfied. A “change in control” under the 2004 Plan is defined as: (i) the sale (in one or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of Holdco to an unaffiliated person; (ii) a sale (in one transaction or a series of transactions) resulting in more than 50% of the voting stock of

 

17


Table of Contents

Holdco being held by an unaffiliated person; (iii) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of Holdco with or into an unaffiliated person; in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iii) above, if and only if any such event results in the inability of the Sponsors, or any member or members of the Sponsors, to designate or elect a majority of Holdco’s Board of Directors (or the board of directors of the resulting entity or its parent company). The option exercise period is determined at the time of grant of the option but may not extend beyond the end of the calendar year that is ten calendar years after the date the option is granted. All stock options, restricted shares and any common stock received upon the exercise of such equity awards or with respect to which restrictions lapse are governed by a management stockholder’s agreement and a sale participation agreement. As of July 2, 2011, there were 279,703 options vested under the 2004 Plan and 2,000 options unvested and subject to future vesting.

During the first fiscal quarter of 2010, Holdco implemented long-term phantom share incentive arrangements with respect to certain key employees (the “2010 LTIP”). Under these arrangements, the applicable executive was granted a target award, based on a specified number of phantom share units, half of which vests on the basis of performance (and continued employment) and the other half of which vests on the basis of time (and continued employment), regardless of whether the respective performance target(s) are met. Except under certain conditions described below, if the respective performance or service target is not achieved, or the executive resigns or suffers a termination of employment by Holdco prior to the applicable date other than following a change in control, the applicable award is forfeited without payment. Each award also contains covenants with respect to confidentiality, noncompetition and nonsolicitation to which the executive is bound during his or her employment and for two years following termination of employment. The following summarizes the key terms of the various forms of 2010 LTIP awards.

Jostens. The awards granted to executives of the Jostens subsidiary are based on a two-year incentive period, and the performance award vests if Jostens achieves a trailing twelve months’ EBITDA target measured as of the last day of fiscal year 2011, subject to the applicable executive’s continued employment through such measurement date. The time award vests based solely on the basis of the applicable executive’s continued employment through the last day of fiscal year 2011.

In the case of the executive’s termination by Jostens without cause due to the elimination of the executive’s position as a result of a restructuring or due to the executive’s permanent disability or death, in each case occurring after fiscal year 2010 and prior to any change in control, 100% of the executive’s time award will vest and all other unvested awards will be forfeited without payment therefor. In the case of the executive’s termination by Jostens without cause or by the executive for good reason or due to the executive’s permanent disability or death within two years following a change in control and prior to the last day of fiscal year 2011, 100% of the executive’s time award will vest and (i) 50% of the executive’s performance award will vest if such termination occurs on or before the last day of fiscal year 2010, or (ii) 100% of the executive’s performance award will vest if such termination occurs after the last day of fiscal year 2010 but prior to the last day of fiscal year 2011.

Visant and Other Subsidiaries. The awards granted to executives of Visant and its subsidiaries (other than Jostens) are based on an 18-month incentive period, and performance awards vest based on achievement of a trailing twelve months’ EBITDA target measured as of the last day of the second fiscal quarter of 2011 and, in the case of a certain subset of Visant’s subsidiaries, a portion of the performance awards vest based on the achievement of certain other performance targets as of such measurement date, in any event subject to the executive’s continued employment through the applicable measurement date, provided that if the respective performance target were achieved as of the last day of fiscal year 2010 or the last day of the first fiscal quarter of 2011, the performance award applicable to such performance target would vest and become due and payable as of such earlier date. The time award vests solely on the basis of the executive’s continued employment through the last day of the second fiscal quarter of 2011.

In the case of an executive’s termination without cause or by the executive for good reason or due to the executive’s permanent disability or death within two years following a change in control and prior to the last day of the second fiscal quarter of 2011, 100% of the executive’s time award will vest. If such a termination occurred prior to September 30, 2010, 50% of the executive’s performance award would have become vested (regardless of whether the respective performance target(s) are met), but if the termination occurs after September 30, 2010, the executive will have the opportunity to become vested in either 50% or 100% of the performance award provided that an applicable portion of the respective EBITDA performance target has been achieved (measured as of the last day of the fiscal month ended closest to the date of the employee’s termination). If a minimum applicable portion of the EBITDA performance target is not achieved, the unvested performance award will be forfeited without payment therefor.

Table of Contents

Subject to the applicable vesting conditions, awards are settled in cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of one share of Class A Common Stock as of the vesting date (provided that following a change in control, the per share value of Class A Common Stock shall not be less than the price per share paid in respect of such common stock in the change in control) multiplied by the number of phantom share units in which the executive’s awards have vested, payable in a lump sum as soon as practicable following the vesting event, and in any event not later than March 14th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such vesting event occurred, provided that, for Messrs. Reisch and Carousso and Ms. Hlavaty, payment with respect to a time award vested in the ordinary course as of the last day of the second fiscal quarter of 2011 will not be due and payable until March 14, 2012. The terms “change in control”, “cause” and “good reason” are as defined in the 2010 LTIP agreements.

As of August 10, 2011, payments in the aggregate of $7.3 million were approved for payment in the third quarter in respect to awards made under the 2010 LTIP.

Common Stock

There is no established public market for the Class A Common Stock. The fair market value of the Class A Common Stock is established pursuant to the terms of the 2004 Plan and determined by a third party valuation, and the methodology to determine the fair market value under the equity incentive plans does not give effect to any premium for control or discount for minority interests or restrictions on transfers. Fair value includes any premium for control or discount for minority interests or restrictions on transfers. Holdco used a discounted cash flow analysis and selected public company analysis to determine the enterprise value and share price for the Class A Common Stock.

On February 26, 2010, the Board of Directors of Holdco declared an extraordinary cash distribution in the aggregate amount of $137.7 million (inclusive of the dividend equivalent payment to holders of vested stock options), or $22.00 per share (the “February 2010 Distribution”), on Holdco’s outstanding common stock. The February 2010 Distribution was paid on March 1, 2010 to stockholders of record on February 26, 2010. The February 2010 Distribution was funded from cash on hand.

On September 20, 2010, the Board of Directors of Holdco declared an extraordinary cash distribution in the aggregate amount of $517.0 million (inclusive of the dividend equivalent payment to holders of vested stock options) of $82.55 per share (the “September 2010 Distribution” and together with the February 2010 Distribution, the “Distributions”), on Holdco’s outstanding common stock. The September 2010 Distribution was paid on September 22, 2010 to stockholders of record on September 20, 2010 and was funded from the net proceeds of the 2010 Refinancing.

In connection with the Distributions, Holdco made cash payments to holders of vested stock options for the Common Stock granted pursuant to Holdco’s stock option plans. The cash payments on the vested stock options equaled (x) the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such options outstanding on the applicable record date multiplied by (ii) the per share amount of the distribution, minus (y) any applicable withholding taxes. Holdco reduced the per share exercise price as permitted under the applicable equity incentive plans of any unvested options outstanding as of the applicable record date by the per share distribution amounts paid. The 2003 Plan and 2004 Plan and/or underlying stock option agreements contain provisions that provide for anti-dilutive protection in the case of certain extraordinary corporate transactions, such as the Distributions, and the incremental compensation cost, defined as the difference in the fair value of the award immediately before and after the Distributions, was calculated as zero. As a result of the above Distributions, no incremental compensation cost was recognized.

The Company recognized total stock-based compensation expense of approximately $3.4 million and $5.9 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended July 2, 2011, respectively. Stock-based compensation is included in selling and administrative expenses.

For the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, there were no issuances of restricted shares or stock options.

As of July 2, 2011, $1.0 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted shares is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

17. Related Party Transactions

Management Services Agreement

In connection with the Transactions, Holdco entered into a management services agreement with the Sponsors pursuant to which the Sponsors provide certain structuring, consulting and management advisory services. Under the management services agreement, during the term the Sponsors receive an annual advisory fee of $3.0 million that is payable quarterly and which increases by 3% per year. Holdco incurred advisory fees from the Sponsors of $0.9 million for each of the three months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010. The Company incurred $1.8 million and $1.7 million of advisory fees from the Sponsors for each of the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. The management services agreement also provides that Holdco will indemnify the Sponsors and their affiliates, directors, officers and representatives for losses relating to the services contemplated by the management services agreement and the engagement of the Sponsors pursuant to, and the performance by the Sponsors of the services contemplated by, the management services agreement.

Other

KKR Capstone is a team of operational professionals who work exclusively with KKR’s investment professionals and portfolio company management teams to enhance and strengthen operations in KKR’s portfolio companies. The Company has retained KKR Capstone from time to time to provide certain of the Company’s businesses with consulting services primarily to help identify and implement operational improvements and other strategic efforts within its businesses. The Company incurred approximately $0.6 million and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2011, respectively, for services provided by KKR Capstone. There were no services rendered or payments made for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010. An affiliate of KKR Capstone has an ownership interest in Holdco.

Certain of the lenders under the Credit Facilities and their affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in investment banking, commercial banking and other financial advisory and commercial dealings with Visant and its affiliates. Such parties have received (or will receive) customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

An affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC acted as an agent and was a lender under the Company’s credit facilities prior to the 2010 Refinancing, and affiliates of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and KKR Capital Markets LLC received a portion of the proceeds from the 2010 Refinancing and the Repricing. Affiliates of Credit Suisse Securities (USA)

Table of Contents

LLC and KKR Capital Markets LLC act as lenders and/or as agents under the Credit Facilities and were initial purchasers of the Senior Notes, for which they received and will receive customary fees and expenses and are indemnified by Visant against certain liabilities. Each of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and KKR Capital Markets LLC is an affiliate of one of the Sponsors.

Visant is party to an agreement with CoreTrust Purchasing Group (“CoreTrust”), a group purchasing program, pursuant to which the Company may avail itself of the terms and conditions of the CoreTrust purchasing organization. In addition to other vendors the Company purchases from under the CoreTrust group purchasing program, beginning in 2010 the Company avails itself of a prescription drug benefit program and related services through the CoreTrust program. An affiliate of KKR is party to an agreement with CoreTrust which permits certain KKR affiliates, including the Company, the benefit of utilizing the CoreTrust group purchasing program. CoreTrust receives payment of fees for administrative and other services provided by CoreTrust from certain vendors based on the products and services purchased by the Company and other parties and CoreTrust shares a portion of such fees with the KKR affiliate.

The Company participates in providing, with an affiliate of First Data Corporation (“First Data”), integrated marketing programs to third parties from time to time. The terms of the arrangement between Visant and First Data have been negotiated on an arm’s length basis. First Data is also owned and controlled by affiliates of KKR, and Tagar C. Olson, a member of Visant’s and Holdco’s board of directors, is a director of First Data. Based on the applicable guidance, the Company records its portion of the profits from such “collaborative arrangement” as revenue. The Company is not permitted, in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, to present the sales, cost of sales or marketing expenses related to the sales transactions with third parties because First Data is the “principal participant” in the “collaborative arrangement”. For the six months ended July 2, 2011, the amount of revenue that the Company recognized through this arrangement was not material to the financial statements. The Company did not recognize any revenue through this arrangement for the three months ended July 3, 2010.

 

18. Condensed Consolidating Guarantor Information

As discussed in Note 10, Debt, Visant’s obligations under the Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements including, without limitation, statements concerning the conditions in our industry, expectations with respect to future cost savings, our operations, our economic performance and financial condition, including, in particular, statements relating to our business and growth strategy and product development efforts.

our dependence on members of senior management.

We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this report may not in fact occur. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any of them in light of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Comparisons of results for current and prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.

GENERAL

We are a leading marketing and publishing services enterprise servicing the school affinity, direct marketing, fragrance and cosmetics sampling, and educational and trade publishing segments. Visant was formed in 2004 to create a platform of businesses with leading positions in attractive end market segments and to establish a highly experienced management team that could leverage a shared services infrastructure and capitalize on margin and growth opportunities. Since 2004, we have developed a unified marketing and publishing services organization with a leading and differentiated approach in each of our segments. Our management team has created and integrated central services and management functions and has reshaped the business to focus on the most attractive and highest growth market opportunities.

We sell our products and services to end customers through several different sales channels, including independent sales representatives and dedicated sales forces. Visant (formerly known as Jostens IH Corp.) was originally incorporated in Delaware in 2003.

Our business has expanded through a number of acquisitions, which complement our awards and team jackets business and the jewelry business in our Scholastic segment. These acquisitions include the acquisition of the capital stock of Rock Creek (a producer of varsity jackets) in February 2010 and the acquisition of certain assets of Daden Group, Inc. (a producer of varsity jackets under the DeLong brand) (the “Daden Assets”) in July 2010. During May 2010, we completed the acquisition of Intergold (a custom jewelry manufacturer), through a cash tender offer to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares, to complement the jewelry business in our Scholastic segment. The results of these acquisitions are reported as part of the Scholastic segment from the respective dates of acquisition.

We continued to expand our business in April 2011 through the acquisition of Color Optics, a specialized packaging provider, serving the cosmetic and consumer products industries with highly decorated packaging solutions that is complementary to our sampling business. The results of the acquired Color Optics operations are reported as part of the Marketing and Publishing Services segment from the date of acquisition.

Our three reportable segments as of July 2, 2011 consisted of:

 

   

Scholastic—provides services in conjunction with the marketing, sale and production of class rings and an array of graduation products and other scholastic affinity products to students and administrators primarily in high schools, colleges and other post-secondary institutions;

 

   

Memory Book—provides services in conjunction with the publication, marketing, sale and production of school yearbooks, memory books and related products that help people tell their stories and chronicle important events; and

 

   

Marketing and Publishing Services—provides services in conjunction with the development, marketing, sale and production of multi-sensory and interactive advertising sampling systems, primarily for the fragrance, cosmetics and personal care segments, and provides innovative products and related services to the direct marketing sector. The group also produces book components primarily for the educational and trade publishing segments.

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net sales and cash flow from operations tied primarily to the North American school year. Jostens generates a significant portion of its annual net sales in the second quarter. Deliveries of caps, gowns and diplomas for spring graduation ceremonies and spring deliveries of school yearbooks are the key drivers of our seasonality in net sales. Our cash flow from operations is concentrated in the fourth quarter, primarily driven by the receipt of customer deposits in our Scholastic and Memory Book segments. The net sales of sampling and other direct mail and commercial printed products have also historically reflected seasonal variations, and we expect these businesses to continue to generate significant sales during our third and fourth quarters. These seasonal variations in net sales are based on the

Table of Contents

timing of customers’ advertising campaigns, which have traditionally been concentrated prior to the Christmas and spring holiday seasons. Net sales of textbook components are impacted seasonally by state and local schoolbook purchasing schedules, which commence in the spring and peak in the summer months preceding the start of the school year. The seasonality of each of our businesses requires us to allocate our resources to manage our capital and manufacturing capacity, which often operates at full or near full capacity during peak seasonal demand periods.

Our net sales include sales to certain customers for whom we purchase paper. The price of paper, a primary material across most of our products and services, is volatile over time and may cause swings in net sales and cost of sales. We generally are able to pass on increases in the cost of paper to our customers across most of our product lines at the time we are impacted by such increases.

The price of gold and other precious metals has increased dramatically since 2009, and we anticipate continued volatility in the price of gold for the foreseeable future driven by numerous factors, such as changes in supply and demand and investor sentiment. These higher metal prices have impacted, and could further impact, our jewelry sales metal mix. While historically the purchase of class rings has been relatively resistant to economic conditions, we have seen a continuing shift in jewelry metal mix from gold to lesser priced metals since 2009, which we believe is primarily attributable to the impact of significantly higher precious metal costs on our jewelry prices. In the third quarter there has been an unprecedented increase in the price of gold which is likely to impact our manufacturing costs through the second fiscal half of 2011.

The continued uncertainty in market conditions and excess capacity that exists in the print and related services industry, as well as the variety of other advertising media with which we compete, have amplified competitive and pricing pressures, which we anticipate will continue for the foreseeable future. We continue to see the impact of restrictions on school budgets, which affects spending at the state and local levels, resulting in reduced spending for our Memory Book, Scholastic and elementary/high school publishing services products and services. Specifically, funding constraints have impacted textbook adoption cycles, which are being extended in many states due to fiscal pressures, affecting volume in our elementary/high school publishing services products and services. The trade book publishing industry is experiencing an accelerated shift towards digital books which trend negatively impacts our publishing services business in terms of less printed copies of books as well as shorter print runs. The recently announced liquidation of the Borders Group retail stores will likely impact demand for trade books for some period of time.

We seek to distinguish ourselves based on our capabilities, innovative service offerings to our customers, quality and organizational and financial strength. We continue to diversify, expand and improve our product and service offerings, including to address changes in technology, consumer behavior and user preferences.

In addition, we have continued to implement efforts to reduce costs and drive operating efficiencies, including through the restructuring and integration of our operations and the rationalization of sales, administrative and support functions. We expect to initiate additional efforts focused on cost reduction and containment to address continued challenging marketplace conditions as well as competitive and pricing pressures demanding innovation and a lower cost structure.

Company Background

On October 4, 2004, an affiliate of KKR and affiliates of DLJMBP III completed the Transactions, which created a marketing and publishing services enterprise through the consolidation of Jostens, Von Hoffmann and Arcade. The Transactions were accounted for as a combination of interests under common control.

Prior to the Transactions, Von Hoffmann and Arcade were each controlled by affiliates of DLJ Merchant Banking Partners II, L.P., and DLJMBP III owned approximately 82.5% of Holdco’s outstanding equity, with the remainder held by other co-investors and certain members of management. Upon consummation of the Transactions, an affiliate of KKR invested $256.1 million and was issued equity interests representing approximately 49.6% of Holdco’s voting interest and 45.0% of Holdco’s economic interest, while affiliates of DLJMBP III held equity interests representing approximately 41.0% of Holdco’s voting interest and 45.0% of Holdco’s economic interest, with the remainder held by other co-investors and certain members of management. Approximately $175.6 million of the proceeds were distributed to certain stockholders, and certain treasury stock held by Von Hoffmann was redeemed. As of August 8, 2011, affiliates of KKR and DLJMBP III held approximately 49.2% and 41.1%, respectively, of Holdco’s voting interest, while each continued to hold approximately 44.7% of Holdco’s economic interest. As of August 8, 2011, the other co-investors held approximately 8.4% of the voting interest and 9.1% of the economic interest of Holdco, and members of management held approximately 1.3% of the voting interest and approximately 1.5% of the economic interest of Holdco (exclusive of exercisable options). Visant is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of interim financial statements involves the use of certain estimates that differ from those used in the preparation of annual financial statements, the most significant of which relate to income taxes. For purposes of preparing our interim financial statements, we utilize an estimated annual effective tax rate based on estimates of the components that impact the tax rate. Those components are re-evaluated each interim period, and, if changes in our estimates are significant, we modify our estimate of the annual effective tax rate and make any required adjustments in the interim period.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2011.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which expanded the required disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance requires (1) separate disclosure of the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements along with the reasons for such transfers, (2) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately in the reconciliation for Level 3 fair value measurements, (3) fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and (4) disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. This guidance became effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlement on a gross basis, which became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Our adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more-likely-than-not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more-likely-than-not that a goodwill impairment exists, consideration should be made as to whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011. We are currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but do not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on our financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to business combinations entered into by an entity that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. These amendments clarify existing guidance that, if an entity presents comparative financial statements that include a material business combination, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This guidance became effective, on a prospective basis, for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the first annual reporting period after December 15, 2010. Our adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04 (“ASU 2011-04”) which generally provides a uniform framework for fair value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). Additional disclosure requirements in ASU 2011-04 include: (1) for Level 3 fair value measurements, quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used by the entity and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs, (2) for an entity’s use of a nonfinancial asset that is different from the asset’s highest and best use, the reason for the difference, (3) for financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, the fair value hierarchy level in which the fair value measurements were determined and (4) the disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. We are currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but do not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on our financial statements.

Table of Contents

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU 2011-05’) which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance amends existing guidance by allowing only two options for presenting the components of net income and other comprehensive income: (1) in a single continuous financial statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or (2) in two separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a separate statement of other comprehensive income. Also, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income must be presented on the face of the financial statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We are currently evaluating the impact and disclosure of this standard but do not expect this standard to have a significant impact, if any, on our financial statements.

Net Sales. Consolidated net sales decreased $6.0 million, or 1.2%, to $493.1 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $499.1 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2010. Included in consolidated net sales for the three-month period ended July 2, 2011 were approximately $3.8 million of incremental sales attributed to acquisitions. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, consolidated net sales decreased $9.8 million, a decline of 2.0%, for the three months ended July 2, 2011 compared to the prior year comparable period.

Net sales for the Scholastic segment were $135.7 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2011, an increase of 3.0% compared to $131.7 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2010. This increase was primarily attributable to higher volume and prices in our jewelry products.

Net sales for the Memory Book segment were $268.8 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2011, a decrease of 2.9% compared to $276.9 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower volume.

Net sales for the Marketing and Publishing Services segment decreased $1.8 million, or 2.0%, to $88.7 million from $90.5 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower volume in our publishing services operations offset by the impact of higher sampling sales including sales from our acquisition of Color Optics completed on April 4, 2011.

Gross Profit. Consolidated gross profit decreased $10.0 million, or 3.3%, to $287.4 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 from $297.4 million for the three-month period ended July 3, 2010. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit margin decreased to 58.3% for the three months ended July 2, 2011 from 59.6% for the comparative period in 2010. This decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to the impact of certain work we elected to perform at lower margin billings and higher precious metal costs during the period.

Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses decreased $5.9 million, or 4.3%, to $129.2 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 from $135.1 million for the corresponding period in 2010. This decrease reflects the absence of legal costs during the period that were otherwise incurred in 2010 in connection with the defense and resolution of certain legal proceedings, offset somewhat by increased stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2011. Excluding the impact of costs associated with such legal proceedings and stock-based compensation, selling and administrative expenses decreased $1.0 million which was primarily attributable to lower overall commissions and the savings resulting from cost reduction initiatives. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses increased slightly to 25.5% for the three

months ended July 2, 2011 compared to 25.4% for the three months ended July 3, 2010.

Special Charges. During the three months ended July 2, 2011, we recorded $5.8 million of restructuring costs and $2.9 million of other special charges. Restructuring costs consisted of $4.1 million, $1.3 million and $0.4 million of severance and related benefit costs associated with reductions in force in the Memory Book, Scholastic and Marketing Publishing Services segments, respectively. Other special charges consisted of $2.2 million of non-cash asset related impairment charges associated with the consolidation of certain facilities in the Memory Book segment and $0.7 million of non-cash asset related impairment charges in the Marketing and Publishing Services segment associated with the closure of the Milwaukee, Wisconsin facility. The associated employee headcount reductions related to the above actions were 231, 92 and 23 in the Memory Book, Scholastic and Marketing and Publishing Services segments, respectively.

During the three months ended July 3, 2010, the Company recorded $0.9 million of restructuring costs. The Memory Book and Scholastic segments incurred $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of severance and related benefit costs for headcount reductions related to cost reduction initiatives. The Marketing and Publishing Services segments incurred $0.3 million of severance and related benefit costs for headcount reductions associated with reductions in force. The associated employee headcount reductions related to the above actions were eight, seven and five in the Memory Book, Scholastic and Marketing and Publishing Services segments, respectively.

Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, consolidated operating income decreased $11.0 million to $149.8 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $160.8 million for the comparable period in 2010. As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased to 30.4% for the second fiscal quarter of 2011 from 32.2% for the same period in 2010.

Net Interest Expense. Net interest expense was comprised of the following:

Net interest expense increased $25.8 million to $39.6 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $13.8 million for the comparative 2010 period primarily due to increased borrowings and higher average interest rates related to the 2010 Refinancing (in which all indebtedness of Holdco and Visant was refinanced at Visant).

Income Taxes. We recorded an income tax provision for the three months ended July 2, 2011 based on our best estimate of the consolidated effective tax rate applicable for the entire year and giving effect to tax adjustments considered a period expense or benefit. The effective tax rates for the three months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 were 45.1% and 37.3%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to the loss of the deduction for domestic manufacturing and reduced utilization of foreign tax credits at the consolidated group level for foreign earnings repatriations anticipated for 2011.

Net Income. As a result and primarily attributable to the higher interest expense as a result of the 2010 Refinancing, we reported net income of $60.6 million for the three months ended July 2, 2011 compared to net income of $92.2 million for the three months ended July 3, 2010.

Net Sales. Consolidated net sales decreased $21.2 million, or 2.8%, to $743.9 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $765.1 million for the prior year comparable period. Included in consolidated net sales for the six-month period ended July 2, 2011 were approximately $7.4 million of incremental sales attributed to acquisitions. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, consolidated net sales decreased $28.6 million, a decline of 3.7%, for the six months ended July 2, 2011 compared to the prior year comparable period.

Net sales of our Scholastic segment for the six months ended July 2, 2011 increased by $2.6 million, or 0.9%, to $292.0 million compared to $289.4 million for the six months ended July 3, 2010. This increase was primarily attributable to higher volume and prices in our jewelry products.

Net sales for the Memory Book segment were $274.4 million for the six-month period ended July 2, 2011, a decrease of 3.3%, compared to $283.7 million for the six-month period ended July 3, 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower volume.

Net sales of the Marketing and Publishing Services segment decreased $14.5 million, or 7.5%, to $177.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2011 compared to $192.0 million during the first six months of fiscal 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower volume in our publishing services operations offset by the impact of higher sampling sales including those from the acquisition of Color Optics.

Gross Profit. Consolidated gross profit decreased $16.3 million, or 3.8%, to $418.3 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 from $434.6 million for the six-month period ended July 3, 2010. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit margin decreased slightly to 56.2% for the six months ended July 2, 2011 from 56.8% for the comparative period in 2010. This decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to the impact of certain work we elected to perform at lower margin billings and higher precious metal costs during the period.

Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses decreased $3.0 million, or 1.2%, to $245.9 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 from $248.9 million for the corresponding period in 2010. This decrease reflects the absence of legal costs during the period that were otherwise incurred in 2010 in connection with the defense and resolution of certain legal proceedings. Excluding the impact of costs associated with such legal proceedings and stock-based compensation, selling and administrative expenses increased $0.1 million to $240.0 million for fiscal 2011 and, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 32.2% for the six months ended July 2, 2011 from 31.4% for the comparative period in 2010. This increase, as a percentage of net sales, was primarily attributable to a higher proportion of total net sales in our Scholastic and Memory Book segments, which typically carry higher selling and administrative costs.

Special Charges. During the six-month period ended July 2, 2011, we recorded $7.2 million of restructuring costs and $4.3 million of other special charges. Restructuring costs consisted of $4.4 million, $2.1 million and $0.7 million of severance and related benefit costs associated with reductions in force in the Memory Book, Scholastic and Marketing and Publishing Services segments, respectively. Other special charges consisted of $2.2 million of non-cash asset related impairment charges associated with the consolidation of certain facilities in the Memory Book segment and $2.1 million of non-cash asset related impairment charges associated with the closure of the Milwaukee, Wisconsin facility. The associated employee headcount reductions related to the above actions were 234, 137 and 29 in the Memory Book, Scholastic and Marketing and Publishing Services segments, respectively.

For the six-month period ended July 3, 2010, the Company recorded $2.2 million of restructuring costs and $0.1 million of other special charges. Restructuring costs for the six months ended July 3, 2010 included $1.0 million and $0.5 million related to cost reduction initiatives in our Scholastic and Memory Book segments, respectively. Also included was $0.8 million of cost reduction initiatives and facility consolidation costs in the Marketing and Publishing Services segment. Included in these costs were approximately $0.1 million of non-cash asset impairment charges. The associated employee headcount reductions were 58, 13 and 21 in the Scholastic, Memory Book and Marketing and Publishing Services segments, respectively.

Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, consolidated operating income decreased $21.5 million to $161.3 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $182.8 million for the comparable period in 2010. As a percentage of net sales, operating income was 21.7% and 23.9% for the six-month periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively.

Net Interest Expense. Net interest expense was comprised of the following:

Net interest expense increased $54.9 million to $82.2 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 compared to $27.3 million for the comparative prior year period, primarily due to increased borrowings and higher average interest rates related to the 2010 Refinancing (in which all indebtedness of Holdco and Visant was refinanced at Visant).

Income Taxes. We recorded an income tax provision for the six months ended July 2, 2011 based on our best estimate of the consolidated effective tax rate applicable for the entire year and giving effect to tax adjustments considered a period expense or benefit. The effective tax rates for the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 were 46.8% and 37.2%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to the loss of the deduction for domestic manufacturing for 2011 as a result of the carryforward tax effects of the net operating loss generated in 2010 by the U.S. federal tax filing entity, Holdco, which includes Visant and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The increase in the effective tax rate was also impacted by reduced utilization at the consolidated group level of foreign tax credits in connection with foreign earnings repatriations anticipated for 2011. For the six-month period ended July 3, 2010, the effective tax rate was also favorably impacted by the nonrecurring effect of the Canada Revenue Agency decision to withdraw its transfer price assessment for Jostens for the taxable periods 1996 and 1997 and refund certain amounts.

Net Income. As a result and primarily attributable to the higher interest expense as a result of the 2010 Refinancing, net income decreased $55.5 million to $42.1 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 compared to net income of $97.6 million for the six months ended July 3, 2010.

For the six months ended July 2, 2011, cash provided by operating activities was $46.5 million compared with $88.4 million for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in cash from operating activities of $41.9 million was attributable to lower cash earnings, primarily due to increased interest expense, and the timing of interest payments due to the 2010 Refinancing, offset somewhat by lower working capital requirements.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended July 2, 2011 was $29.3 million compared with $40.7 million for the comparative 2010 period. The $11.4 million change was primarily driven by decreased acquisition activity of

$4.4 million and lower capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment of $4.0 million during the first six months of 2011 versus the comparable 2010 period. Our capital expenditures relating to purchases of property, plant and equipment were $27.5 million and $31.5 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended July 2, 2011 was $24.4 million, compared with $144.9 million for the comparable 2010 period. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended July 2, 2011 primarily consisted of $7.8 million for the net repayment of long-term debt and $16.6 million related to debt financing costs and related expenses from the Repricing in March 2011. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended July 3, 2010 consisted of $137.7 million for the payment of the February 2010 Distribution described below and $12.7 million of distributions to fund scheduled interest payments on Holdco’s outstanding indebtedness offset by an increase in net borrowings of $5.5 million.

On February 26, 2010, the Board of Directors of Holdco declared the February 2010 Distribution in an aggregate amount of $137.7 million (inclusive of the dividend equivalent payment to holders of vested stock options), or $22.00 per share, on Holdco’s outstanding common stock. The February 2010 Distribution was paid on March 1, 2010 to stockholders and optionholders of record on February 26, 2010 and was funded from cash on hand.

During the six months ended July 3, 2010, Visant transferred approximately $137.7 million of cash through Visant Secondary to Holdco to allow Holdco to make the February 2010 Distribution. The February 2010 Distribution was reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as a reduction in accumulated earnings and presented in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as a distribution to stockholder.

During the six months ended July 3, 2010, Visant also transferred approximately $12.7 million of cash from Visant Secondary Holding Corp. to Holdco to allow Holdco to make scheduled interest payments on its previously outstanding indebtedness. The transfer was reflected in Visant’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as a reduction in accumulated earnings and presented in Visant’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as a distribution to stockholder.

On March 1, 2011, Visant announced the completion of the Repricing providing for the incurrence of new term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1,246.9 million, with the proceeds of the new term loans, together with cash on hand, being used to repay the existing term B loans outstanding in full. The amended term loan B facility provides for an interest rate for each term loan based upon LIBOR or an ABR plus a spread of 4.00% or 3.00%, respectively, with a 1.25% LIBOR floor. In connection with the amendment, Visant was required to pay a prepayment premium of 1% of the outstanding principal amount of the term loan facility along with certain other fees and expenses. A 1% prepayment premium will be payable in respect of subsequent repricing events, if any, occurring on or prior to March 1, 2012.

We use cash generated from operations primarily for debt service obligations and capital expenditures and to fund other working capital requirements. In assessing our liquidity, we review and analyze our current cash on-hand, the number of days our sales are outstanding and capital expenditure commitments. Our ability to make scheduled payments of principal, or to pay the interest on, or to refinance our indebtedness, or to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our future operating performance. Future principal debt payments are expected to be paid out of cash flows from operations, cash on hand and, if consummated, future financings. Based upon the current level of operations, management expects our cash flows from operations along with availability under our Credit Facilities will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations, including our projected working capital requirements, debt interest and retirement obligations and related costs, and capital spending for the foreseeable future. To the extent we make future acquisitions, we may require new sources of funding, including additional debt or equity financing or some combination thereof.

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net sales and cash flow from operations, tied primarily to the North American school year. In particular, Jostens generates a significant portion of its annual sales in the second quarter in connection with the delivery of caps, gowns and diplomas for spring graduation ceremonies and spring deliveries of school yearbooks, and a significant portion of its annual cash flow in the fourth quarter driven by the receipt of customer deposits in our Scholastic and Memory Book segments. The net sales of our sampling and other direct mail and commercial printed products have also historically reflected seasonal variations and generate a majority of annual net sales during the third and fourth quarters, including based on the timing of customers’ advertising campaigns which have traditionally been concentrated prior to the Christmas and spring holiday seasons. Based on the seasonality of our cash flow, we traditionally borrow under our Revolving Credit Facility during the third quarter to fund general working capital needs during this period of time when schools are generally not in session and orders are not being placed, and repay the amount borrowed for general

Table of Contents

working capital purposes in the fourth quarter when customer deposits in the Scholastic and Memory Book segments are received and customers’ advertising campaigns in anticipation of the holiday season generally increase.

We have substantial debt service requirements and are highly leveraged. As of July 2, 2011, we had total indebtedness of $2,004.8 million (exclusive of $12.3 million letters of credit outstanding and $22.1 million of original issue discount), including $14.2 million of outstanding borrowings under capital lease and equipment financing arrangements. Our cash and cash equivalents as of July 2, 2011 totaled $53.0 million. As of July 2, 2011, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under our outstanding material debt obligations, including our consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA covenant. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and available borrowings under the Credit Facilities, which included $162.7 million of available borrowings under Visant’s $175.0 million Revolving Credit Facility as of July 2, 2011. As of July 2, 2011, Visant had $1,240.6 million outstanding under the Term B Loan facility, $750.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Senior Notes, $12.3 million outstanding in the form of standby letters of credit under its secured credit facilities and $14.2 million of outstanding borrowings under capital lease and equipment financing arrangements. There were no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility during the period ended July 2011 (other than the $12.3 million outstanding in the form of standby letters of credit).

Our liquidity and our ability to fund our capital requirements will depend on the credit markets and our financial condition. The extent of any impact of credit market conditions on our liquidity and ability to fund our capital requirements or to undertake future financings will depend on several factors, including our operating cash flows, credit conditions, our credit ratings and credit capacity, the cost of financing and other general economic and business conditions that are beyond our control. If those factors significantly change or other unexpected factors adversely affect us, our business may not generate sufficient cash flows from operations or we may not be able to obtain future financings to meet our liquidity needs. Any refinancing of our debt could be on less favorable terms, including becoming subject to higher interest rates. In addition, the terms of existing or future debt instruments, including the Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the Senior Notes, may restrict certain of our alternatives. We anticipate that, to the extent additional liquidity is necessary to fund our operations or make additional acquisitions, it would be funded through borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, the incurrence of other indebtedness, additional equity issuances or a combination of these potential sources of liquidity. The possibility of consummating any such financing will be subject to conditions in the capital markets at such time. We may not be able to obtain this additional liquidity when needed on terms acceptable to us or at all.

As market conditions warrant, we and our Sponsors, including KKR and DLJMBP III and their affiliates, may from time to time redeem or repurchase debt securities, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer, exchange offer or otherwise subject to the terms of applicable contractual restrictions. We cannot give any assurance as to whether or when such repurchases or exchanges will occur and at what price.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There were no material changes in our exposure to market risk during the quarter ended July 2, 2011. However, in the third quarter there has been an unprecedented increase in the price of gold which increases our exposure to market risk through the second half of 2011. For additional information, refer to the discussion under Item  2.—Management’s Discussion and Analyses of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—General, elsewhere in this report and Item 7A of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2011.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

During the quarter ended July 2, 2011, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Our equity securities are not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. For the second fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2011, we did not issue or sell any equity securities, except that on April 27, 2011 and June 13, 2011, 763 and 579 shares of Holdco’s Class A Common Stock were issued to two former employees, respectively, in connection with the exercise of vested options by such former employees in connection with their separation from service.

 

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

We make the following disclosure that otherwise would be made on a Form 8-K/A:

The disclosure contained in this Item 5 amends and supplements the Form 8-K filed by Visant on April 26, 2011 (the “Original 8-K”), disclosing the consolidation of certain of the memory book and commercial print operations of Jostens resulting in the permanent closure of certain of Jostens’ State College, Pennsylvania facilities later this year.

At the time of the filing of the Original 8-K, Visant was unable in good faith to make a determination of an estimate of the total amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with the consolidation.

Visant estimates the total cash costs to be incurred in connection with the consolidation will be approximately $7.1 million, consisting of (1) approximately $4.2 million for severance, termination-related benefit costs and related cash expenditures and relocation costs, (2) approximately $0.8 million relating to the closure of the facilities and associated costs and (3) approximately $2.1 million relating to the relocation of equipment. Visant anticipates that substantially all of the cash costs will be incurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 and the first six months of fiscal year 2012. Visant estimates the total non-cash costs to be incurred in connection with the consolidation from the write-off of certain fixed assets will be approximately $2.1 million.

All discussions of costs and time periods set forth in this Item 5 are estimates which, while based on Visant’s current good faith expectations, are subject to change. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above.
