Investor Meeting to be held in New York on Thursday, June 21, 2007

CHICAGO, May 1, 2007 — R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (NYSE: RRD) today reported first-quarter 2007 net earnings from continuing operations of $138.9 million or $0.63 per diluted share on net sales of $2.8 billion compared to net earnings from continuing operations of $114.2 million or $0.52 per diluted share on net sales of $2.3 billion in the first quarter of 2006. The first-quarter net earnings from continuing operations included, in 2007, pre-tax charges for restructuring ($11.3 million) and impairment ($0.1 million) totaling $11.4 million and in 2006, pre-tax charges for restructuring ($16.2 million) and impairment ($0.4 million) totaling $16.6 million, substantially all associated with the reorganization of certain operations and the exiting of certain business operations. The company’s effective tax rate decreased to 32.8% in the first quarter of 2007 from 35.5% in the first quarter of 2006, primarily reflecting an increased benefit from the domestic manufacturing deduction and the benefit from a larger proportion of taxable income being generated in lower tax jurisdictions in 2007. The company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2006. Including discontinued operations, net earnings were $138.8 million or $0.63 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2007 and $111.9 million or $0.51 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2006.

The company believes that certain non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures, are useful because that information is an appropriate measure for evaluating the company’s operating performance. Internally, the company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance, and evaluates management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. These measures should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP net earnings from continuing operations totaled $145.9 million or $0.66 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2007 compared to $124.4 million or $0.57 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2006. Non-GAAP net earnings from continuing operations exclude restructuring and impairment charges in the first quarter of both 2007 and 2006. For non-GAAP comparison purposes, the effective tax rate decreased to 33.1% in the first quarter of 2007 from 35.8% in the first quarter of 2006, primarily reflecting an increased benefit from the domestic manufacturing deduction and the benefit from a larger proportion of taxable income being generated in lower tax jurisdictions in 2007. A reconciliation of GAAP net earnings to non-GAAP net earnings for these adjustments is presented in the attached tables.

“We are pleased by the strong operating results in the first quarter,” said Tom Quinlan, RR Donnelley’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our integration of Banta Corporation and Perry Judd’s, both of which were acquired in the first quarter, has been seamless to customers and has begun to deliver the promised synergy benefits. As we began to manage the assets and workload from each legacy company as one RR Donnelley, we loaded our platform very efficiently in the quarter. Our Global Print Solutions segment continued to deliver strong results with good revenue growth and, while Banta and Perry Judd’s carried a lower operating margin pre-acquisition, solid integration efforts and strong performance in our legacy business began to close the margin gap. Our Global Services segment, led by our financial print offering, posted solid operating performance, improving profitability significantly from the fourth-quarter of 2006. Cash from continuing operations was strong in the seasonally lighter first quarter.”

Quinlan added, “We want to thank Mark Angelson for his guidance and leadership. Under his direction, the company made great progress over the past three years. Our leadership team and our exceptionally talented employees will continue to execute our proven strategy for serving customers with the broadest range of products and services, maintaining intense financial discipline, and striving to be the highest quality and lowest cost producer in each sector that we serve.”

Business Review (Continuing Operations)

The company reports its results in two reportable segments, 1) Global Print Solutions and 2) Global Services, and Corporate.

Summary

During the first quarter of 2007, we acquired Banta Corporation and Perry Judd’s, both of which had a lower operating margin historically. Our proven financial discipline and approach to achieving productivity increases already have had a positive margin impact in these operations, and we see opportunities for continued improvement.

Net sales in the quarter were $2.8 billion, up 23.2% from the first quarter of 2006. The increase was due to acquisitions as well as new customer wins and increased volume with existing customers and favorable foreign exchange comparisons, offset in part by continued price pressure. The gross margin rate decreased to 26.4% in the first quarter of 2007 from 26.7% in the first quarter of 2006 reflecting the inclusion of the historically lower-margin Banta and Perry Judd’s operations that more than offset the benefits from higher sales volume and our productivity efforts. SG&A expense as a percentage of net sales was 11.6% in the first quarter of both 2007 and 2006. Operating margin, which was negatively impacted by charges for impairment and restructuring totaling $11.4 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $16.6 million in the first quarter of 2006, was 9.3% in the first quarter of both 2007 and 2006.

Excluding charges for restructuring and impairment, non-GAAP operating income increased 18.1% to $269.9 million in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2006. Non-GAAP operating margin in the first quarter of 2007 was 9.7% compared to 10.1% in the first quarter of 2006 reflecting the inclusion of the historically lower-margin Banta and Perry Judd’s operations that more than offset the benefits from higher sales volume and our productivity efforts. Reconciliations of GAAP operating income and margin to non-GAAP operating income and margin are presented in the attached tables.

Segments

Net sales for the Global Print Solutions segment increased 32.8% to $1.8 billion from the first quarter of 2006 due to the Banta and Perry Judd’s acquisitions as well as sales increases in our international operations, short-run commercial print, book and logistics offerings and favorable foreign exchange comparisons. The segment’s operating margin, which was negatively impacted by restructuring charges of $4.3 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2006, decreased to 12.4% in the first quarter of 2007 from 12.9% in the first quarter of 2006. Excluding restructuring charges, the segment’s non-GAAP operating income increased 26.0% to $229.8 million. Non-GAAP operating margin in the first quarter of 2007 decreased to 12.6% from 13.3% in the first quarter of 2006 reflecting the inclusion of the historically lower-margin Banta and Perry Judd’s operations that more than offset the benefits of our productivity initiatives.

Net sales for the Global Services segment increased 8.5% to $970.8 million from the first quarter of 2006 due to the acquisitions of OfficeTiger in April, 2006 and Banta as well as sales growth in financial print and favorable foreign exchange comparisons, offset in part by lower sales of statement printing. The segment’s operating margin, which was negatively impacted by charges for restructuring and impairment totaling $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2006, decreased to 9.0% in the first quarter of 2007 from 9.3% in the first quarter of 2006. Non-GAAP operating margin decreased to 9.3% in the first quarter of 2007 from 9.9% in the first quarter of 2006. This decrease was due to continued price pressure and the performance of statement printing.

Corporate operating expenses increased to $54.3 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $48.4 million in the first quarter of 2006. Excluding restructuring charges of $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2006, corporate operating expenses increased $7.8 million to $50.2 million from the first quarter of the prior year reflecting the acquisitions of Banta and Perry Judd’s that more than offset the benefit of our productivity initiatives and a $5.8 million reversal of post-retirement expenses related to the voluntary retirement of Mark Angelson.

Outlook—2007 Full-Year Non-GAAP EPS from Continuing Operations

For the full year of 2007, RR Donnelley is projecting non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share from continuing operations to be in the range of $2.70 to $2.75, but trending toward the high end of the range. This guidance includes the impact of the previously announced acquisitions and assumes no shares repurchased under the authorization available to the company. The non-GAAP effective tax rate for 2007 is expected to be approximately 33.7%.

GAAP net earnings per diluted share from continuing operations in 2007 may include restructuring, impairment and integration charges, the resolution of certain tax items and other items that are not currently determinable, but may be significant. For that reason, the company is unable to provide full-year GAAP net earnings estimates at this time.

(1) Restructuring and impairment (pre-tax): Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, were affected by the following restructuring and impairment charges:

- $9.3 million and $13.5 million for employee termination costs, substantially all of which were associated with restructuring actions resulting from the reorganization of certain operations and the exiting of certain business activities; $2.0 million and $2.7 million of other restructuring costs, including lease termination and other facility closure costs; and $0.1 million and $0.4 million of impairment of other long-lived assets.

(2) Net loss from discontinued operations: Net loss from discontinued operations included costs of $0.1 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which primarily reflect costs resulting from a subtenant bankruptcy related to a facility previously occupied by the Company’s package logistics business.
