NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)  

(unaudited)  

Note 1—Nature of Business

The Company

“MPS” and the “Company” refer to Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited and its controlled subsidiaries. MPS is a leading, global provider of value-added packaging solutions to a diverse customer base across the healthcare, consumer, and multi-media end markets. MPS provides its customers with print-based specialty packaging, including premium-folding cartons, labels and inserts across a variety of substrates and finishes.

Bermuda Reincorporation

On October 7, 2015, 100% of the share capital of Multi Packaging Solutions Global Holdings Limited was acquired by Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited, a company incorporated and organized under the laws of Bermuda, from Chesapeake Finance 1 Limited and Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. In connection with the issuance of shares, the number of shares was increased as a result of the par value changing from one British Pound Sterling to one U.S. dollar. The total authorized share capital of the Company is 1 billion shares. The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to allot and issue any unissued shares as common shares or preference shares, provided the total number of shares of the classes combined does not exceed the total authorized amount. The Board of Directors may also determine the number and specific rights attaching to any preference shares that may be issued. The Company has not issued any preference shares to date.

Stock-split and Initial Public Offering

On October 8, 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved and the Company executed a 1 for 5.08 reverse stock split of its common shares prior to completing its proposed initial public offering. All share and per share data has been presented to reflect this reverse split. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering of 16,500,000 common shares at a price of $13.00 per share. In connection with the offering, funds controlled by The Carlyle Group (“Carlyle”) and certain current and former employees, sold 1,000,000 common shares (which was included in the 16,500,000 common shares). The underwriters also exercised their rights to purchase an additional 2,475,000 common shares from certain of the selling shareholders, including investment funds controlled by Madison Dearborn (“Madison”) and Carlyle, at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the shares sold by Madison or Carlyle, certain current and former employees, or from the exercise of the underwriters’ option. The Company received proceeds of $186,424 from the initial public offering, of which $182,414 was used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Term Loans, with the remaining amount used to pay a portion of the total offering costs of $7,024.

On June 8, 2016, a secondary offering was completed, and Madison and Carlyle sold 10,000,000 common shares. The underwriters also exercised their rights to purchase an additional 1,500,000 common shares from the selling shareholders. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the secondary offering.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2016 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and the statements of cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and statement of shareholders’ equity for the three months ended September 30, 2016 are

6

unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2016 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company. However, the interim financial information does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year June 30, 2016, and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited and its controlled subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In September 2016, the Company acquired a portion of the remaining noncontrolling interest in one of its subsidiaries, MPS Denver, LLC (“Denver”) for a nominal amount. The transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of noncontrolling interest and included in the statement of stockholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2016, the Company owns 80% of the outstanding ownership interests in Denver.

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 requires all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. It also will allow an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted, however all of guidance must be adopted in the same period under the transition requirements. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 as of July 1, 2016, which is the beginning of the current fiscal year. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company elected to account for forfeitures when they occur. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. Lease expenses will be recognized in the income statement in a manner similar to existing requirements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within such annual period, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective method for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU No. 2015-11 requires inventory measured using any method other than last-in, first out or the retail inventory method to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. ASU No. 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within such annual period. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2015-11.

7

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. Additionally, in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12,  Revenue from contracts with customers (Topic 606): Narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, which contains certain provisions and practical expedients in response to identified implementation issues. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within such annual period, with early application prohibited for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the transition method that will be elected and the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09.

Note 3—Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable for unvested restricted stock, as calculated using the treasury stock method.

Note 4—Acquisitions

The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of operations of the acquisitions are included in the consolidated results from their respective dates of acquisition. The purchase price of each acquisition is allocated to the tangible assets, liabilities, and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values.

Chicago Paper Tube and Can Co.

On January 26, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Chicago Paper Tube & Can Co. (“CPT”). The acquisition of CPT provides the Company with high-end, round rigid packaging capability in North America. Consideration for the

8

transaction consisted of cash totaling $8,189, net of cash acquired, and was funded from existing cash balances. CPT’s operations, which are included in the North America operating segment, are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

BluePrint Media Limited

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of BP Media, Ltd. (“BluePrint”). The acquisition of BluePrint provides the Company with pre-press and digital services in the European market, facilitating the processes surrounding translation and interchangeability of print content for foreign locations. In addition, BluePrint provides the Company with an established sales presence in the media markets in Europe, which will enable the Company to serve the European needs of global media releases. BluePrint had annual revenue of approximately $23,000 in its most recently completed year prior to the acquisition. Consideration in the transaction consisted of cash totaling £1,587 (approximately $2,496 at the transaction date exchange rate), net of cash acquired. The purchase price was funded from existing cash balances. Subject to the provisions in the agreement, additional consideration of £1,000 (approximately $1,301 at current period-end exchange rates) is payable on June 30, 2018. Further consideration of 25% of the acquired business’s EBITDA, as defined in the share purchase agreement, for the three fiscal years ending June 30, 2018 is also payable to the sellers, subject to the achievement of a minimum EBITDA. The Company estimated £944 (approximately $1,228 at current period-end exchange rates) as the fair value of such contingent consideration as of the acquisition date. There were no material changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration between the acquisition date and September 30, 2016. BluePrint’s operations, which are included in the Europe operating segment, are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company maintains two amortizing interest rate swaps that mature in December 2017. The swaps are being used to hedge the exposure to changes in the market London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”). At September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, one of the swaps had a notional amount of £84,390 and £84,608 respectively, whereby the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 1.1649% and receives a variable rate based on LIBOR on the amortizing notional amount. The other swap had a notional amount of €97,285 and €97,786, respectively, whereby the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 1.0139% and receives a variable rate based on EURIBOR on the amortizing notional amount. As of September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the swaps had a negative fair value of $2,977 and $3,573, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has not designated these interest rate swaps as effective hedges and, as such, the change in the fair value each period is recorded in other income (expense), net.

In connection with the acquisition of BluePrint in July 2015, payment of a portion of the purchase price is contingent upon the achievement of certain operating results (see Note 4). The Company estimated the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration as the present value of the expected contingent payments, determined using the weighted probabilities of the possible payments. The Company is required to reassess the fair value of contingent payments on a periodic basis. The significant inputs used in the estimate of this obligation includes numerous possible scenarios for the payments based on the contractual terms of the contingent consideration, for which probabilities are assigned to each scenario, which are then discounted based on an individual risk analysis of the liability. Although the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, different assumptions, including those regarding the operating results of the respective businesses, or changes in the future may result in different estimated amounts. Other than translation adjustments, there were no changes in the balance of the contingent consideration during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Note 11—Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the effective tax rates which includes the impact of discrete items, were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
	2016		2015
Effective tax rate provision	19.7	%	28.6	%

Our effective tax rate differs from the US federal statutory income tax rate of 35.0%, due to the mix and levels between United States and foreign earnings. Included in the three months ended September 30, 2016 was a benefit of $778 related to a reduction in the enacted UK statutory tax rate and an expense of $619 related to the finalization of a state audit. Excluding these discrete items, the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the mix of earnings. This includes the forecasted tax benefit primarily in the United States resulting from debt extinguishment charges recorded in October 2016 (see Note 19, Subsequent Events). 

As of September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the total liability for uncertain tax benefits, including accrued interest and penalties, was $2,030 and $2,106, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In October 2015, the Mexican Tax Authorities concluded their audit of the 2008 tax year and issued an assessment. The Company has filed an appeal with the Mexican Tax Court. The Company has been indemnified for all taxes payable and unrecognized tax positions by ASG from the prior owners for the audits in Canada and the tax court case in Mexico.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, cash paid for taxes was $2,028 and $2,891, respectively.

Note 12—Employee Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company maintains a number of defined benefit pension plans for the benefit of its employees throughout the world, which vary depending on the conditions and practices in the countries concerned. The principal defined benefit pension plan is the Field Group Pension Plan in the United Kingdom. The assets of the plan are held in an external trustee-administered fund. The Company also operates two further defined benefit pension plans in the United Kingdom (known as the Chesapeake pension plan and the GCM pension plan), as well as a number of defined benefit arrangements in France and Germany. The defined benefit pension plans in the United Kingdom are funded while the French and German plans are mainly unfunded. The benefits are based on a fixed rate of pay per year depending on the department worked in and function of the participant. Charges to expense are based upon costs computed using actuarial assumptions.

Note 14—Restructuring Related Costs

The Company previously announced the closure of the former ASG facility located in Melrose Park, Illinois in September 2015, and the closure was completed in February 2016. In May 2016, the intention to relocate the Stuttgart, Germany business was announced and in August 2016, the intention to close the Bradford, United Kingdom was announced. The following is a summary of the activity with respect to the Company’s restructuring related costs, which are principally related to these items.

These costs are primarily recorded in cost of goods sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Accrued restructuring related costs are included in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The total restructuring related costs for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were principally recorded in the Europe segment, while the total restructuring related costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were principally recorded in the North America segment.

Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies

The Company participates in multiple collective bargaining agreements with various unions, which provide specified benefits to certain union employees. Approximately 8% of the Company’s employees in North America are unionized and approximately 75% of the Company’s employees in Europe are members of a union or works counsel or otherwise covered by labor agreements. The collective bargaining contract agreements with the various unions are set to expire at various dates between 2017, at which time, the Company expects to negotiate a renewal of the agreements.

The Company is involved in various proceedings, legal actions and claims arising in the normal course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. The Company records amounts for losses that are deemed to be probable and subject to reasonable estimate. The Company does not anticipate losses as a result of these proceedings that would materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 16—Related Party Transactions

On February 13, 2014, the Company loaned CEP III Chase Finance S.à r.l., an entity owned by Carlyle, and Mustang Intermediate Investments S.à r.l., an entity owned by Madison Dearborn Partners, each $1,677 to enable them to purchase 5.1% of the outstanding capital stock of CD Cartondruck GmbH. The notes bear interest at a rate of 2.0%, compounded annually, and had a maturity date of February 14, 2015. The loan had automatic renewal periods unless terminated through a written notice no less than four weeks prior to maturity. The $3,354 note receivable was recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015. On October 8, 2015, the Company purchased CD Cartondruck GmbH for the value of the note plus interest. The transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of noncontrolling interest and included in the statement of stockholders’ equity. As of October 8, 2015, the Company owns 100% of the outstanding capital stock of CD Cartondruck GmBH.

In connection with the Company entering into that certain Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Third Incremental Joinder as more fully described in Note 19, certain affiliates of Carlyle hold approximately $55,000 principal amount of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations under the Incremental Term Loan (as defined in Note 19), Euro Term Loan and Sterling Term Loan.

Note 17—Stock Based Compensation

The Company recognized compensation expense, or (reduction of expense), related to awards under its stock based compensation plans as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Fiscal Year Ended
	September 30,				June 30,
	2016		2015		2016
Performance Based Units	$	—	$	—	$	9,460

2015 Incentive Award Plan		285		—		234
Total	$	285	$	(414)	$	26,769

Performance Based Units

In connection with Carlyle’s acquisition of Chesapeake, certain members of Chesapeake’s management were allowed to co-invest with Carlyle in an entity controlled by Carlyle that holds an investment in the Company. At the time of the grant, those members of management that invested alongside Carlyle received a specified number of common shares, which were subject to a performance-based ratchet (the “Ratchet”). Pursuant to the Ratchet, members of management’s ownership percentage could increase based on Chesapeake completing an “Exit” that resulted in a specified return on invested capital (“MOIC”) and internal rate of return (“IRR”) for certain investors. An Exit is defined as the completion of a liquidating event, which includes the completion of an initial public offering (“IPO”). Since a liquidity event, including an IPO, is generally not probable until it occurs, no compensation cost had been recognized in the financial statements through the initial public offering date. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its IPO (see Note 1) and accordingly the performance-based units vested and the Company recognized stock based compensation expense of approximately $9,460 at that time. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Carlyle shares, less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable by the members of management.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan (Mustang Investment Holdings L.P.)

The 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) provides for profits interests and restricted capital interests in Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. (“Holdings”) to be granted to directors, officers and employees of the Company. During fiscal 2016, Holdings did not issue any time-vesting profits interests or performance-vesting profits interests. Time-vesting profits interests vested twenty percent per year on each of the first five anniversaries of August 15, 2013, as per the applicable award agreement. All performance-vesting profits interests would vest based on Holdings’ principal investors

15

obtaining various thresholds of an internal rate of return as defined in the 2014 Plan, which represents a performance condition.

Since the profits interests issued under the 2014 Plan are for interests in Holdings, which is outside of the consolidated group, the value of the profits interests was marked to market at each of the Company’s reporting periods. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its IPO and in connection with the IPO the performance-vesting profits interests vested and the Company accelerated the vesting of the time-vesting profits interest.

The Company recognized compensation expense, or (reduction of expense), related to awards under the 2014 Plan as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Fiscal Year Ended
	September 30, 2015		June 30, 2016
Time vesting profits interests	$	(275)		5,569
Time vesting restricted capital interests		(139)		3,410
Performance-vesting profits interests		—		7,373
Total	$	(414)	$	16,352

2014 Plan—Profits Interests Valuation

As an input to the Black-Scholes model, and for valuation of the profits interests and restricted capital interest awards, the Company estimated the fair value of Holdings’ equity quarterly. The Company relied on the results of a discounted cash flow analysis but also considered other widely recognized valuation models. The discounted cash flow analysis is dependent on a number of significant management assumptions regarding the expected future financial results of the Company and Holdings, as well as upon estimates of an appropriate cost of capital. A sensitivity analysis was performed in order to establish a narrow range of estimated fair values for the equity of Holdings. The market approach consists of identifying a set of guideline public companies. Multiples of historical and projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) determined based on the guideline companies are applied to Holdings’ EBITDA in order to establish a range of estimated fair value for the equity of Holdings. After considering all of these estimates of fair value, the Company then determines a single estimated fair value of the equity to be used in accounting for equity-based compensation.

The Company calculated the estimated fair value of each award as of the reporting date for each grant prior to the IPO using the Black–Scholes option valuation model. There was no active market for Holdings’ equity. Therefore, as a substitute for Holdings’ volatility, the Company elected to use the historical volatility of various publicly traded companies in the printing industry. The expected term of profits interests granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that profits interests granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the life of the profits interests is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company utilized 4.26 years as the expected term, 41.0% for its expected volatility, and 1.2% for the risk free rate of interest. The Company does not expect to pay any dividends and the weighted average of profits interest was $10.54 per profits interest. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Holdings shares less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable.

At the time of the Company’s IPO all the profits interests in Holdings were converted on an equivalent share basis. As of June 30, 2016, there are no profits interests outstanding, nor is there any unearned compensation related to unvested profits interests.

2014 Plan—Restricted Capital Interests Valuation

For restricted capital interests issued under the 2014 Plan the Company calculated the estimated fair value of each award using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions described below and considers a lack of marketability discount. There was no active market for Holdings’ equity. Therefore, as a substitute for Holdings’ volatility, the Company elected to use the historical volatility of various publicly traded companies in the printing industry. The Company uses historical data to estimate employee terminations within the valuation model. The expected term of restricted capital interests granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that restricted capital interests granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the life of

16

the restricted capital interests is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company utilized 4.26 years as the expected term, 41.0% for its expected volatility, and 1.2% for the risk free rate of interest. The Company does not expect to pay any dividends and the weighted average of restricted capital interests was $11.23 per capital interest. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Holdings shares less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable.

At the time of the Company’s IPO all the restricted capital interests in Holdings were converted on an equivalent share basis. As of June 30, 2016, there are no restricted capital interests outstanding, nor is there any unearned compensation related to unvested restricted capital interests.

2015 Incentive Award Plan

The Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited 2015 Incentive Award Plan (the “2015 Plan”) was adopted in October 2015 and provides for the grant of stock options, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other stock or cash-based awards. All awards under the 2015 Plan are granted pursuant to award agreements, which, together with the 2015 Plan, detail the terms and conditions of the awards, including any applicable vesting, payment terms and post-termination exercise limitations. Awards may be subject to performance criteria, which are determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof), and that must be achieved in order for the awards to vest and/or be settled. An aggregate of 9,000 common shares was initially made available for issuance under the 2015 Plan.

A summary of the restricted stock and restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is as follows:

	Number Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share)
Non-vested as of June 30, 2016		171,854	$	13.41
Granted		466,110	$	13.72
Non-vested as of September 30, 2016		637,964	$	13.63

The Company recorded expense of $285 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 in connection with stock grants under the 2015 Plan. As of September 30, 2016, $8,400 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock awards under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

Note 18—Segments

The Company operates its business along three operating segments, which are grouped on the basis of geography: North America, Europe and Asia. The Company believes this method of segment reporting reflects both the way its business segments are managed and the way the performance of each segment is evaluated. The three segments consist of similar operating activities as each segment produces similar products.

The Company, including its Chief Operating Decision Maker, evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment net income before income taxes, interest, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, transaction, stock-based compensation and certain other costs that do not relate to the segment’s ongoing operations. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income is provided in the tables below. Inter-segment sales and transfers, which were not material, are accounted for as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, at current market prices.

Note 19—Subsequent Events

On October 14, 2016, the Company acquired AJS Group Limited (“AJS”), a leading supplier in the United Kingdom of self-adhesive labels. The addition of this specialist business complements the Company’s existing operations and extends the group’s marketing capability and reach to customers within the branded consumer sectors and international beauty and personal care sectors. AJS’ net sales for its most recently completed 12 months were approximately £9,000 (approximately $12,000). The preliminary cash purchase price included an estimated working capital payment to the sellers and totaled £10,991, net of cash acquired ($13,425 at the transaction date exchange rate). The final purchase price is subject to a working capital, net debt and EBITDA adjustment with the sellers. The purchase price was funded with existing cash balances.

On October 14, 2016, certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into that certain Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Third Incremental Joinder by and among Multi Packaging Solutions Limited, MPS/CSK Holdings, Inc., Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc., certain other wholly owned subsidiaries of MPS, the lenders party thereto and Barclays Bank PLC in its capacities as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Fifth Amendment”). The Fifth Amendment includes a new $220,000 U.S. Dollar tranche D term loan maturing in October 2023 (the “Incremental Term Loan”). The interest rate margin applicable to the Incremental Term Loan is 3.25% above LIBOR, subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor. The proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan were used, in part, to redeem the outstanding $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.500% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”) on October 17, 2016 at a redemption price equal to 106.375% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. Funds in an amount sufficient to fully pay the redemption price were deposited with the trustee for the Notes on October 14, 2016 so that the Notes and related indenture were fully satisfied and discharged as of October 14, 2016. The Fifth Amendment also lowered the interest rate margin on the existing Euro tranche B term loan to 3.25% above EURIBOR and the interest rate margin on the existing British Pound Sterling tranche B term loan to 4.00% above LIBOR, in each case subject to a 1.00% EURIBOR/LIBOR floor. The maturity of each of the existing Euro tranche B term loan and British Pound Sterling tranche B term loan remains September 2020. Finally, the Fifth Amendment increased the size of Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc.’s U.S. Dollar revolving credit facility to $70,000.

On November 4, 2016, the Company acquired the assets and business of i3 Plastic Cards (“i3”), a fully-integrated solution provider for creating and personalizing plastic transaction cards including pre-paid gift and loyalty cards that is based in Dallas, Texas. The business complements the Company’s existing transaction card operations and offers customers a broader range of options. Net sales for i3 for the most recently completed 12 months were approximately $13,000. The preliminary purchase price paid to the seller included cash consideration of $15,000 and 226,224 common shares of the Company, valued at $3,000. The final purchase price is subject to a working capital adjustment with the seller. Additional cash consideration may be paid based on the acquired business’ EBITDA, as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement, through September 30, 2019. Such additional cash consideration may range from zero to $13,800.

Overview

We print and manufacture high quality paperboard, paper and plastic packaging in the North American, European and Asian segments. Within each of these geographic segments, we sell products into the healthcare, consumer and multi-media end markets.

The healthcare market includes pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and healthcare related products. The consumer market includes cosmetics, personal care and toiletries, food, spirits, sporting goods, transaction and gift cards, confectionary, liquor and general consumer products. The multi-media market includes home video, software, music, video games and media related special packaging products.

Products are manufactured in 59 facilities located in the United States, Europe, Canada, Mexico and China. We also have strategic alliances with companies in Europe and China who outsource certain products and production activities. In some cases, we procure non-paperboard, paper or plastic products to include in special packaging project deliverables for our customers. Products are generally cartons, labels, inserts or other paper or paperboard packaging products.

Cartons are generally paperboard based folding cartons. Labels are generally paper and pressure sensitive label stock printed products that are delivered in reel form or in a cut and stack form and can include basic labels for bottles and boxes, and extended content labels designed to deliver more information to the ultimate purchaser of our customer’s products. Inserts include fine paper folded inserts used in the delivery of detailed warnings, instructions and other information to the ultimate purchaser of our customer’s products. Other products include all remaining products. Often the project deliverables to a customer include all or a combination of these products.

Our strategic objectives are (i) continuing to enhance our position as a leading provider of packaging products to the segments we serve and can serve in North America, Europe and Asia; (ii) the expansion further into international markets to meet the global sourcing needs of our customers; and (iii) the identification of other areas in the packaging industry that can most benefit from our ability to deliver quality packaging products according to our customers’ needs, including the leveraging of our recent transactions via cross-selling both products and geographies. To achieve these objectives, we intend to continue expanding our printing, packaging and graphic arts capabilities, including the development and application of advanced manufacturing technologies and the establishment of manufacturing facilities in strategic international markets.

Key Transactions

Acquisition of i3 Plastic Cards

On November 4, 2016, we acquired the assets and business of i3 Plastic Cards (“i3”), a fully-integrated solution provider for creating and personalizing plastic transaction cards including pre-paid gift and loyalty cards that is based in Dallas, Texas.  The business complements the Company’s existing transaction card operations and offers customers a broader range of options. Net sales for i3 for the most recently completed 12 months prior to the acquisition were approximately $13 million.  

Acquisition of AJS

On October 14, 2016, we acquired AJS Group Limited (“AJS”), a leading supplier in the United Kingdom of self-adhesive labels. The addition of this specialist business complements our existing operations and extends our marketing capability and reach to customers within the branded consumer sectors and international beauty and personal care sectors. AJS’ net sales for the most recently completed 12 months prior to the acquisitions were approximately £9 million (approximately $12 million).  

Acquisition of Chicago Paper Tube and Can

On January 26, 2016, we completed the acquisition of Chicago Paper Tube and Can (“CPT”). CPT provides the Company with high end round rigid packaging capability in North America. CPT’s net sales for the most recently completed 12 months prior to the acquisition were approximately $5 million.

Acquisition of BP Media

On July 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of BP Media, Ltd. (“BluePrint”). The acquisition of BluePrint provides us with pre-press and digital services in the European market, facilitating the processes surrounding translation and interchangeability of print content for foreign locations. In addition, BluePrint provides us with an established sales presence in the media markets in Europe, which will enable us to serve the European needs of global media releases. BluePrint’s net sales for the most recently completed 12 months prior to the acquisition were approximately $23 million.

Acquisition Accounting

All of the transactions described above were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, in all cases the assets and liabilities of the acquired or merged entities were recorded at fair value as of the respective closing dates and the results of operations of the entities are included in our results of operations from the date of closing.

Trends

General Information

Our largest customers are generally large multinational entities, many of which are consolidating global packaging requirements under a smaller number of suppliers. We believe we are favorably situated for this transition due to our many facilities, global footprint, standardized equipment from plant to plant and our relative size to other packaging suppliers. The packaging marketplace is very fragmented, with no one vendor providing a significant portion of the packaging needs.

Net Sales Trends

Net sales are impacted by the macroeconomic performance of our geographic segments and the markets within these geographic segments. Packaging net sales tend to be strongest just before the underlying customer’s busy season, which for high-end branded products is generally strongest in our first and second fiscal quarters.

Healthcare net sales in each of our geographic segments are influenced by the severity of a particular region’s cold and flu seasons, as well as the development and acceptance of certain new products, and the stage of product, from the prescription-only stage to the private label or generic stage.

23

European consumer net sales of confectionary products are generally stronger in our second quarter due to the holiday season. North American and European consumer net sales of spirits are also generally stronger in our second quarter due to the holiday season. Asia consumer net sales of spirits are generally stronger in their holiday season, generally in our third fiscal quarter.

The net sales to the North American multi-media end market are influenced by the success of a particular year’s movie releases, which can generate special packaging needs for these customers. Net sales of packaging in the North American video game market are generally influenced by the age of existing, and introduction of new, gaming platforms. Product launches, which cannot be predicted far in advance, have an impact on net sales, particularly with respect to special packaging needed for the holiday season. Overall, we have experienced a decline in multi-media net sales in recent years and expect this trend to continue as a percentage of our total net sales.

Impact of Inflation and Pricing

We have not historically been and do not expect to be significantly impacted by inflation. Increases in payroll costs and any increases in raw material costs that we have encountered are generally able to be offset through lean manufacturing activities. We have consistently made annual investments in capital that deliver efficiencies and cost savings. The benefits of these efforts generally offset the margin impact of competitive pricing conditions in all of the markets we serve.

We remain sensitive to price competitiveness in the markets that we serve and in the areas that are targeted for growth, and believe that the installation of state-of-the-art printing and manufacturing equipment as well as utilization of lean manufacturing (and related labor and production efficiencies) will enable us to compete effectively.

Operational Restructurings

We regularly evaluate our operating facilities in our geographic segments in order to share best practices, ensure logistics that serve customers are appropriate and maximize our operating efficiencies. We have successfully integrated our acquisitions, have achieved our original synergy targets, and will continue to optimize our operations over the next several quarters. In connection with these evaluations, we have closed certain facilities in recent periods. The Company previously announced the closure of the former ASG facility located in Melrose Park, Illinois in September 2015, and the closure was completed in February 2016.  In May 2016, we announced the intention to relocate our Stuttgart, Germany business and are continuing to work with the European Works Councils to achieve this. We are consolidating this facility into other existing facilities in Germany in order to better serve our customers and gain operational efficiencies. In August 2016, we announced our intention to close our Bradford, United Kingdom site as a result of a customer’s consolidation of all their tobacco carton volumes with other existing suppliers. Restructuring charges of $2.9 million were recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2016, which were primarily related to the Stuttgart and Bradford sites. In October 2016, we announced our intention to close one of our plants in Louisville, Kentucky, which is one of our North America multi-media sites. We believe all of these operational restructurings will have a positive impact on gross profit and gross profit percentage in future periods.

Our plans also include evaluating several other opportunities over the next few quarters in order to maximize the efficiency of our global manufacturing footprint. In connection with these plans, the Company may record additional restructuring and closure cost charges over the next several quarters.

Net Sales

The decrease in net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $51.2 million, or 11.2%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. Net sales were unfavorably impacted by foreign currency changes of $17.4 million, principally from translation differences, which resulted in reduced net sales as compared to the prior year period. Based on current foreign exchange rates, specifically the British Pound Sterling, we expect negative impacts from foreign exchange for the remainder of the current fiscal year when results are compared to the prior year period. We experienced a reduction in multi-media sales of $20.6 million, of which $5.5 million related to a toy project, a reduction of $5.3 million of sales for three customers in the tobacco industry in the United Kingdom, a reduction of $3.9 million of sales for three drinks customers in the United Kingdom and reduction of $5.2 million of sales in the North America healthcare market. There was a nominal net increase in sales of $1.2 million for the remainder of our business.

We operate our business along the following operating segments, which are grouped based on geographic region: North America, Europe, and Asia. Net sales by geographic segment, as further broken down by end market, are summarized as follows:

North America

The decrease in North America net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $26.2 million, or 12.2%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in multi-media sales of $22.0 million, or 36.2%, partially due to the aforementioned toy project, and to a lesser extent a decrease in healthcare sales of $5.2 million, or 6.9%, when comparing the current period net sales to the prior year period. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by $0.5 million related to our Canada and Mexico subsidiaries. 

Europe 

The decrease in Europe net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $25.7 million, or 11.6%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by  $15.7 million. The decrease in Europe consumer net sales for the period was $28.2 million, or 20.5%, when compared to the prior year period. This was primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange, a reduction in sales of approximately $5.3 million for three customers in the tobacco industry in the United Kingdom and a reduction in sales of $3.9 million for three drinks customers in the United Kingdom. The increase in Europe healthcare sales for the period ended September 30, 2016 was $0.5 million, or 0.7%, when compared to the prior year period.  On a constant currency basis, European healthcare sales increased over the prior year period, however this increase was offset by the unfavorable exchange rates. The increase in Europe multi-media net sales for the period was $1.9 million, or 25.5%, when compared to the prior year period, as our BluePrint business recorded strong results in the current quarter. 

Asia

The increase in Asia net sales for three months ended September 30, 2016 was $0.7 million, or 3.4%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by $1.1 million. Asia consumer sales for the period were essentially flat when compared to the prior year period as increased sales in local currency were offset by unfavorably foreign currency exchange impacts. Asia healthcare sales for the period increased  $0.7 million, or 13.6%, despite such unfavorable foreign exchange.

Gross Profit

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2016		2015
Net sales	$	407,825	$	459,051
Cost of goods sold		323,481		359,710
Gross profit	$	84,344	$	99,341
Gross profit %		20.7%		21.6%

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased when compared to the gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to the aforementioned decrease in net sales. Gross profit percentage also decreased as a result of the mix of sales, including the lower multi-media sales in the current quarter as compared to the prior year quarter. Such sales typically had higher gross profit percentages due to the specialty nature of such products. The decline also relates to certain operational issues at specific facilities identified in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year that continued into the current quarter. These issues relate to the transfer of work from Scotland to China for the drinks business, lower overhead absorption in the transaction card business due to weakness in EMV card sales, and costs associated with the German operations as the Company implements new ERP systems.

Additionally, restructuring charges of $2.5 million and $2.6 million are included in cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Total selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $56.6 million, a decrease of $2.0 million when compared to the prior period. Transaction related and stock based compensation expenses are included in these amounts, however were nominal in both the current and prior year quarters.

As a percentage of net sales, such expenses were 13.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 12.8% for the prior period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in the current year primarily due to the foreign exchange translation impact of approximately $1.8 million, a net reduction of employee wages of approximately $0.7 million as a result of our recent restructuring programs and a decrease of approximately $0.4 million associated with the closure of the Melrose Park site during the prior fiscal year. These decreases were partially offset with additional costs incurred in the current quarter associated with operating as a public reporting company and reduced employee bonus expense in the current quarter as compared to the prior period.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) is related to foreign currency gains and losses (principally due to intercompany loan balances) and the change in fair value of our derivative instruments.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $14.6 million compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The reduction in interest expense is primarily due to the repayment of $182.4 million of term loans with the proceeds of our initial public offering and $55.2 million from the voluntary early partial repayment of term and other loans during the prior fiscal year. Included in interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is amortization of deferred finance fees and debt discount of $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

27

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, was 19.7% and 28.6%, respectively, and is recorded based upon our annual estimated effective tax rate. Included in the three months ended September 30, 2016 was a benefit of $0.8 million related to a reduction in the enacted UK statutory tax rate and an expense of $0.6 million related to the finalization of a state audit. Excluding these discrete items, the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the mix of earnings. This includes the forecasted tax benefit primarily in the United States resulting from debt extinguishment charges recorded in October 2016 (see Note 19 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

*  Our Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates operating segment profitability and determines resource allocations based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment net income (loss) before income taxes, interest, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, transaction, stock-based compensation and certain other costs that do not related to the segment’s ongoing operations. The Company believes that the presentation of this financial measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance and is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We also believes that this financial measure provides investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of the ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt and to undertake capital expenditures. This financial measure is used for business planning purposes and in measuring performance relative to that of competitors and we believe this financial measure is commonly used by investors. However, our use of the term Adjusted EBITDA may vary from that of others in the industry. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income (loss) is presented in Note 18 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

North America

North America operating income was $9.7 million and $14.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and North America Adjusted EBITDA was $25.3 million and $32.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Operating income as a percentage of net sales was 5.1% and 6.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decreases in operating income, operating income percentage and Adjusted EBITDA from the prior year period are primarily due to aforementioned impact of the lower multi-media sales and the related profit impact, and the impact of the lower overhead absorption in the transaction card business. Additionally, certain corporate costs, including the increased costs as a result of operating as a public reporting company are included in the North America segment.

Europe

Europe operating income was $16.1 million and $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and Europe Adjusted EBITDA was $31.8 million and $40.8 million for the three months ended September

28

30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Operating income as a percentage of net sales was  8.2% and 10.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decreases in operating income, operating income percentage and Adjusted EBITDA from the prior year period are principally due to the aforementioned operational issues associated with the transfer of work from Scotland to China for the drinks business and the costs associated with the Germany operations as the Company implements new ERP systems.

Asia

Asia operating income was $1.9 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and Asia Adjusted EBITDA was $2.9 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Operating income as a percentage of net sales was 8.2% and 14.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decreases are principally due to the aforementioned operational issues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $50.6 million and $44.8 million, respectively, of which $37.7 million and $31.1 million, respectively, were held outside the United States. Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of our business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world. It is our current intent to indefinitely reinvest the earnings of our subsidiaries in those respective jurisdictions and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to the parent company. If these funds were needed for our operations in other jurisdictions, we may be required to record and pay significant income taxes to repatriate these funds to the parent company. Additionally, local government regulations may restrict our ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances. We currently do not expect such regulations and restrictions to impact our ability to make acquisitions or to pay vendors and conduct operations throughout the global organization.

As of September 30, 2016, we had $48.6 million in borrowing capacity under our U.S. dollar revolving credit facility, net of $1.4 million of outstanding letters of credit) and £50.0 million ($65.0 million as of September 30, 2016) in borrowing capacity available under our British Pound Sterling revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, total debt, net of cash, was $853.7 million and $863.1  million, respectively. Working capital was $243.5 million as compared to $216.7 million and the current ratio was 1.9 to one as compared to 1.8 to one as of the same dates, respectively.

We believe that our cash on hand at September 30, 2016, as well as projected cash flows from operations and availability under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as subsequently amended, (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”) are sufficient to fund our working capital needs in the ordinary course of business, anticipated capital expenditures, and our other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. Additionally, we expect that the potential sale of the underlying assets or funds generated from operations will be sufficient to cover the cash requirements related to the aforementioned intention to close certain facilities.  

Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities is summarized in the following table:

	Three Months Ended

(amounts in thousands)	2016		2015

Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by $18.0 million when compared to the prior year period, which was principally due to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA as discussed above and working capital changes. The decrease in net income and other non-cash items was $8.1 million in the current period as compared to the prior year period. There was also a net decrease in the change in working capital accounts of $9.9 million as compared to the prior year period which was principally due to timing of accounts payable.

Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities

Cash flow used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by $8.1 million when compared to the prior year period.  The decrease was principally due to lower capital expenditures in the current year period due to the timing of capital additions.  Additionally, in the prior year period, cash of $2.7 million was used for the Blueprint acquisition.  

Cash Flow Used in Financing Activities

Cash flow used in financing activities was $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to cash flow used in financing activities of $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The net cash used in both periods principally reflects scheduled principal repayments on the Company’s existing debt. Additionally, in the prior year period, there were net proceeds of $1.5 million related to the Company’s short-term borrowing arrangements.  There were no similar borrowings or repayments during the current year period.

Contractual Obligations

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, there were no significant changes to the amounts disclosed in the Company’s contractual obligations table in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. In October 2016, the Company entered into that certain Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Third Incremental Joinder and redeemed the Notes. See Note 19 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the company to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There were no significant changes during the three months ended September 30, 2016 to the items disclosed as Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) as described in Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations

See also Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements that have not yet been adopted by the Company, including the anticipated dates of adoption and the effects on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes in market risk for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from those addressed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.  

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2016. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2016, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are from time to time party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We are not involved in any litigation other than that which has arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not expect that any currently pending lawsuits will have a material effect on us.

ITEM  1A.RISK FACTORS

We have disclosed the risk factors affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, filed with the SEC on August 23, 2016.

Bermuda Reincorporation

On October 7, 2015, 100% of the share capital of Multi Packaging Solutions Global Holdings Limited was acquired by Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited, a company incorporated and organized under the laws of Bermuda, from Chesapeake Finance 1 Limited and Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. In connection with the issuance of shares, the number of shares was increased as a result of the par value changing from one British Pound Sterling to one U.S. dollar. The total authorized share capital of the Company is 1 billion shares. The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to allot and issue any unissued shares as common shares or preference shares, provided the total number of shares of the classes combined does not exceed the total authorized amount. The Board of Directors may also determine the number and specific rights attaching to any preference shares that may be issued. The Company has not issued any preference shares to date.

Stock-split and Initial Public Offering

On October 8, 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved and the Company executed a 1 for 5.08 reverse stock split of its common shares prior to completing its proposed initial public offering. All share and per share data has been presented to reflect this reverse split. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering of 16,500,000 common shares at a price of $13.00 per share. In connection with the offering, funds controlled by The Carlyle Group (“Carlyle”) and certain current and former employees, sold 1,000,000 common shares (which was included in the 16,500,000 common shares). The underwriters also exercised their rights to purchase an additional 2,475,000 common shares from certain of the selling shareholders, including investment funds controlled by Madison Dearborn (“Madison”) and Carlyle, at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the shares sold by Madison or Carlyle, certain current and former employees, or from the exercise of the underwriters’ option. The Company received proceeds of $186,424 from the initial public offering, of which $182,414 was used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Term Loans, with the remaining amount used to pay a portion of the total offering costs of $7,024.

On June 8, 2016, a secondary offering was completed, and Madison and Carlyle sold 10,000,000 common shares. The underwriters also exercised their rights to purchase an additional 1,500,000 common shares from the selling shareholders.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2016 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and the statements of cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and statement of shareholders’ equity for the three months ended September 30, 2016 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2016 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company. However, the interim financial information does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year June 30, 2016, and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited and its controlled subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In September 2016, the Company acquired a portion of the remaining noncontrolling interest in one of its subsidiaries, MPS Denver, LLC (“Denver”) for a nominal amount. The transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of noncontrolling interest and included in the statement of stockholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2016, the Company owns 80% of the outstanding ownership interests in Denver.

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 requires all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. It also will allow an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted, however all of guidance must be adopted in the same period under the transition requirements. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 as of July 1, 2016, which is the beginning of the current fiscal year. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company elected to account for forfeitures when they occur. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. Lease expenses will be recognized in the income statement in a manner similar to existing requirements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within such annual period, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective method for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU No. 2015-11 requires inventory measured using any method other than last-in, first out or the retail inventory method to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. ASU No. 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within such annual period. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2015-11.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. Additionally, in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12,  Revenue from contracts with customers (Topic 606): Narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, which contains certain provisions and practical expedients in response to identified implementation issues. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within such annual period, with early application prohibited for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the transition method that will be elected and the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09.

Note 4—Acquisitions

The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of operations of the acquisitions are included in the consolidated results from their respective dates of acquisition. The purchase price of each acquisition is allocated to the tangible assets, liabilities, and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values.

Chicago Paper Tube and Can Co.

On January 26, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Chicago Paper Tube & Can Co. (“CPT”). The acquisition of CPT provides the Company with high-end, round rigid packaging capability in North America. Consideration for the transaction consisted of cash totaling $8,189, net of cash acquired, and was funded from existing cash balances. CPT’s operations, which are included in the North America operating segment, are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

BluePrint Media Limited

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of BP Media, Ltd. (“BluePrint”). The acquisition of BluePrint provides the Company with pre-press and digital services in the European market, facilitating the processes surrounding translation and interchangeability of print content for foreign locations. In addition, BluePrint provides the Company with an established sales presence in the media markets in Europe, which will enable the Company to serve the European needs of global media releases. BluePrint had annual revenue of approximately $23,000 in its most recently completed year prior to the acquisition. Consideration in the transaction consisted of cash totaling £1,587 (approximately $2,496 at the transaction date exchange rate), net of cash acquired. The purchase price was funded from existing cash balances. Subject to the provisions in the agreement, additional consideration of £1,000 (approximately $1,301 at current period-end exchange rates) is payable on June 30, 2018. Further consideration of 25% of the acquired business’s EBITDA, as defined in the share purchase agreement, for the three fiscal years ending June 30, 2018 is also payable to the sellers, subject to the achievement of a minimum EBITDA. The Company estimated £944 (approximately $1,228 at current period-end exchange rates) as the fair value of such contingent consideration as of the acquisition date. There were no material changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration between the acquisition date and September 30, 2016. BluePrint’s operations, which are included in the Europe operating segment, are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Available for sale securities represent an investment in Zoo Digital Group PLC (“Zoo”), a provider of software and software-led services for the filmed entertainment and pharmaceutical markets, and is reported at fair value based on quoted market prices. The fair value of interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts are based on pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates and forward prices.

The Company maintains two amortizing interest rate swaps that mature in December 2017.  The swaps are being used to hedge the exposure to changes in the market London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”). At September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, one of the swaps had a notional amount of £84,390 and £84,608 respectively, whereby the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 1.1649% and receives a variable rate based on LIBOR on the amortizing notional amount. The other swap had a notional amount of €97,285 and €97,786, respectively, whereby the Company pays a fixed rate of interest of 1.0139% and receives a variable rate based on EURIBOR on the amortizing notional amount. As of September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the swaps had a negative fair value of $2,977 and $3,573,  respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has not designated these interest rate swaps as effective hedges and, as such, the change in the fair value each period is recorded in other income (expense), net.

In connection with the acquisition of BluePrint in July 2015, payment of a portion of the purchase price is contingent upon the achievement of certain operating results (see Note 4). The Company estimated the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration as the present value of the expected contingent payments, determined using the weighted probabilities of the possible payments. The Company is required to reassess the fair value of contingent payments on a periodic basis. The significant inputs used in the estimate of this obligation includes numerous possible scenarios for the payments based on the contractual terms of the contingent consideration, for which probabilities are assigned to each scenario, which are then discounted based on an individual risk analysis of the liability. Although the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, different assumptions, including those regarding the operating results of the respective businesses, or changes in the future may result in different estimated amounts. Other than translation adjustments, there were no changes in the balance of the contingent consideration during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
	2016		2015
Effective tax rate provision	19.7	%	28.6	%

Our effective tax rate differs from the US federal statutory income tax rate of 35.0%, due to the mix and levels between United States and foreign earnings. Included in the three months ended September 30, 2016 was a benefit of $778 related to a reduction in the enacted UK statutory tax rate and an expense of $619 related to the finalization of a state audit. Excluding these discrete items, the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the mix of earnings. This includes the forecasted tax benefit primarily in the United States resulting from debt extinguishment charges recorded in October 2016 (see Note 19, Subsequent Events). 

As of September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the total liability for uncertain tax benefits, including accrued interest and penalties, was $2,030 and $2,106, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In October 2015, the Mexican Tax Authorities concluded their audit of the 2008 tax year and issued an assessment. The Company has filed an appeal with the Mexican Tax Court. The Company has been indemnified for all taxes payable and unrecognized tax positions by ASG from the prior owners for the audits in Canada and the tax court case in Mexico.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, cash paid for taxes was $2,028 and $2,891, respectively.

Performance Based Units

In connection with Carlyle’s acquisition of Chesapeake, certain members of Chesapeake’s management were allowed to co-invest with Carlyle in an entity controlled by Carlyle that holds an investment in the Company. At the time of the grant, those members of management that invested alongside Carlyle received a specified number of common shares, which were subject to a performance-based ratchet (the “Ratchet”). Pursuant to the Ratchet, members of management’s ownership percentage could increase based on Chesapeake completing an “Exit” that resulted in a specified return on invested capital (“MOIC”) and internal rate of return (“IRR”) for certain investors. An Exit is defined as the completion of a liquidating event, which includes the completion of an initial public offering (“IPO”). Since a liquidity event, including an IPO, is generally not probable until it occurs, no compensation cost had been recognized in the financial statements through the initial public offering date. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its IPO (see Note 1) and accordingly the performance-based units vested and the Company recognized stock based compensation expense of approximately $9,460 at that time. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Carlyle shares, less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable by the members of management.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan (Mustang Investment Holdings L.P.)

The 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) provides for profits interests and restricted capital interests in Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. (“Holdings”) to be granted to directors, officers and employees of the Company. During fiscal 2016, Holdings did not issue any time-vesting profits interests or performance-vesting profits interests. Time-vesting profits interests vested twenty percent per year on each of the first five anniversaries of August 15, 2013, as per the applicable award agreement. All performance-vesting profits interests would vest based on Holdings’ principal investors obtaining various thresholds of an internal rate of return as defined in the 2014 Plan, which represents a performance condition.

Since the profits interests issued under the 2014 Plan are for interests in Holdings, which is outside of the consolidated group, the value of the profits interests was marked to market at each of the Company’s reporting periods. On October 22, 2015, the Company completed its IPO and in connection with the IPO the performance-vesting profits interests vested and the Company accelerated the vesting of the time-vesting profits interest.

The Company recognized compensation expense, or (reduction of expense), related to awards under the 2014 Plan as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Fiscal Year Ended
	September 30, 2015		June 30, 2016
Time vesting profits interests	$	(275)		5,569
Time vesting restricted capital interests		(139)		3,410
Performance-vesting profits interests		—		7,373
Total	$	(414)	$	16,352

2014 Plan—Profits Interests Valuation

As an input to the Black-Scholes model, and for valuation of the profits interests and restricted capital interest awards, the Company estimated the fair value of Holdings’ equity quarterly. The Company relied on the results of a discounted cash flow analysis but also considered other widely recognized valuation models. The discounted cash flow analysis is dependent on a number of significant management assumptions regarding the expected future financial results of the Company and Holdings, as well as upon estimates of an appropriate cost of capital. A sensitivity analysis was performed in order to establish a narrow range of estimated fair values for the equity of Holdings. The market approach consists of identifying a set of guideline public companies. Multiples of historical and projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) determined based on the guideline companies are applied to Holdings’ EBITDA in order to establish a range of estimated fair value for the equity of Holdings. After considering all of these estimates of fair value, the Company then determines a single estimated fair value of the equity to be used in accounting for equity-based compensation.

The Company calculated the estimated fair value of each award as of the reporting date for each grant prior to the IPO using the Black–Scholes option valuation model. There was no active market for Holdings’ equity. Therefore, as a substitute for Holdings’ volatility, the Company elected to use the historical volatility of various publicly traded companies in the printing industry. The expected term of profits interests granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that profits interests granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the life of the profits interests is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company utilized 4.26 years as the expected term, 41.0% for its expected volatility, and 1.2% for the risk free rate of interest. The Company does not expect to pay any dividends and the weighted average of profits interest was $10.54 per profits interest. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Holdings shares less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable.

At the time of the Company’s IPO all the profits interests in Holdings were converted on an equivalent share basis. As of June 30, 2016, there are no profits interests outstanding, nor is there any unearned compensation related to unvested profits interests.

2014 Plan—Restricted Capital Interests Valuation

For restricted capital interests issued under the 2014 Plan the Company calculated the estimated fair value of each award using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions described below and considers a lack of marketability discount. There was no active market for Holdings’ equity. Therefore, as a substitute for Holdings’ volatility, the Company elected to use the historical volatility of various publicly traded companies in the printing industry. The Company uses historical data to estimate employee terminations within the valuation model. The expected term of restricted capital interests granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that restricted capital interests granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the life of the restricted capital interests is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company utilized 4.26 years as the expected term, 41.0% for its expected volatility, and 1.2% for the risk free rate of interest. The Company does not expect to pay any dividends and the weighted average of restricted capital interests was $11.23 per capital interest. The expense at the time of the IPO was calculated using the IPO stock price of $13 per share on a per share equivalent basis of Holdings shares less a lack of marketability discount rate due to the shares not being freely tradeable.

At the time of the Company’s IPO all the restricted capital interests in Holdings were converted on an equivalent share basis. As of June 30, 2016, there are no restricted capital interests outstanding, nor is there any unearned compensation related to unvested restricted capital interests.

2015 Incentive Award Plan

The Multi Packaging Solutions International Limited 2015 Incentive Award Plan (the “2015 Plan”) was adopted in October 2015 and provides for the grant of stock options, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other stock or cash-based awards. All awards under the 2015 Plan are granted pursuant to award agreements, which, together with the 2015 Plan, detail the terms and conditions of the awards, including any applicable vesting, payment terms and post-termination exercise limitations. Awards may be subject to performance criteria, which are determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof), and that must be achieved in order for the awards to vest and/or be settled. An aggregate of 9,000 common shares was initially made available for issuance under the 2015 Plan.

A summary of the restricted stock and restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is as follows:

	Number Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share)
Non-vested as of June 30, 2016		171,854	$	13.41
Granted		466,110	$	13.72
Non-vested as of September 30, 2016		637,964	$	13.63

The Company recorded expense of $285 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 in connection with stock grants under the 2015 Plan. As of September 30, 2016, $8,400 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock awards under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

Segments

Note 18—Segments

The Company operates its business along three operating segments, which are grouped on the basis of geography: North America, Europe and Asia. The Company believes this method of segment reporting reflects both the way its business segments are managed and the way the performance of each segment is evaluated. The three segments consist of similar operating activities as each segment produces similar products.

The Company, including its Chief Operating Decision Maker, evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment net income before income taxes, interest, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, transaction, stock-based compensation and certain other costs that do not relate to the segment’s ongoing operations. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income is provided in the tables below. Inter-segment sales and transfers, which were not material, are accounted for as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, at current market prices.

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 requires all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. It also will allow an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted, however all of guidance must be adopted in the same period under the transition requirements. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 as of July 1, 2016, which is the beginning of the current fiscal year. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company elected to account for forfeitures when they occur. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within such annual period. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. Lease expenses will be recognized in the income statement in a manner similar to existing requirements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within such annual period, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective method for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU No. 2015-11 requires inventory measured using any method other than last-in, first out or the retail inventory method to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. ASU No. 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within such annual period. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2015-11.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. Additionally, in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12,  Revenue from contracts with customers (Topic 606): Narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, which contains certain provisions and practical expedients in response to identified implementation issues.

Either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the transition method that will be elected and the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09.
