NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

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

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company and its subsidiaries (“RRD,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	274.3	$	370.6
Restricted cash - current (a)		38.4		32.9
Restricted cash - noncurrent (b)		0.1		0.1
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	312.8	$	403.6

(a) Included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

(b) Included within Other noncurrent assets within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Cash payments for income taxes were $26.4 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Cash refunds for income taxes were $0.7 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Income taxes receivable of $27.9 million and $11.7 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets.

2. Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. All revenue recognized in the Condensed Statements of Operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with clients.

We recorded a net increase to opening retained earnings of $12.9 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to the timing of revenue recognition for certain inventory that has been billed but not yet shipped.

Products

Our products revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time. We generally recognize revenue for products upon the transfer of control of the products to the client which typically occurs upon transfer of title and risk of ownership, which is generally upon shipment to the client. For certain products, we are able to recognize revenue for completed inventory billed but not yet shipped at the client’s direction.

The following is a description of our products:

Commercial Print

We generate revenue by providing various commercial printing products and offer a full range of branded materials including manuals, publications, brochures, business cards, flyers, post cards, posters and promotional items.

Packaging

We generate revenue by providing packaging solutions, ranging from rigid boxes to in-box print materials, for clients in consumer electronics, life sciences, cosmetics and consumer packaged goods industries.

Statements

We generate revenue by creating critical business communications, including customer billings, financial statements, healthcare communications and insurance documents. Our capabilities include design and composition, variable imaging, email, archival and digital mail interaction, as well as our innovative RRDigital solution set.

Direct Marketing

We generate revenue by providing audience segmentation, creative development, program testing, print production, postal optimization and performance analytics for large-scale personalized direct mail programs.

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

Labels

We generate revenue by producing custom labels for clients across multiple industries including warehouse and distribution, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and consumer packaging. We offer distribution and shipping labels, healthcare and durable goods labels, promotional labels and consumer product goods packaging labels.

Digital Print and Fulfillment

We generate revenue by providing in-store marketing materials, including signage and point-of-purchase materials, as well as custom marketing kits that require multiple types of marketing collateral. Under the trade name Motif^TM, we also create custom photobooks.

Supply Chain Management

We generate revenue by providing workflow design to assembly, configuration, kitting and fulfillment for clients in consumer electronics, telecommunications, life sciences, cosmetics, education and industrial industries.

Forms

We generate revenue by producing a variety of forms including invoices, order forms and business forms that support both the private and public sectors for clients in financial, government, retail, healthcare and business services industries.

Services

Our services revenue is recognized both at a point in time and over time. Our logistics revenue is primarily recognized over time as the performance obligation is completed. Due to the short transit period of logistics performance obligations, the timing of revenue recognition does not require significant judgment. Our business process outsourcing and digital and creative solutions revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, depending on the nature of the service which could be either recurring or project-based.

Logistics

We generate revenue by providing specialized transportation and distribution services using our third party logistics solutions. These services are comprised of freight services, including truckload, less-than-truckload, intermodal and international freight forwarding; international mail and parcel distribution; and courier services including same day and next day delivery. As discussed in Note 16, Dispositions, we sold our Print Logistics business on July 2, 2018. Print Logistics services included the distribution of retail and newsstand printed materials.

Business Process Outsourcing

We generate revenue by providing outsourcing services including creative services, research and analytics, financial management and other services for legal providers, insurance, telecommunications, utilities, retail and financial services companies.

Digital and Creative Solutions

We generate revenue by creating and managing content for delivery across multiple marketing communications channels including print and digital advertising, direct marketing and mail, packaging, sales collateral, in-store marketing and social media.

Variable Consideration

Certain clients may receive volume-based rebates or early payment discounts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be earned by our clients and reduce revenue accordingly. We do not expect significant changes to estimates of variable consideration. Given the nature of our products and the history of returns, product returns are not significant.

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about contract assets and liabilities from contracts with clients:

	Contract Assets		Contract Liabilities

Balance at March 31, 2019		3.7		12.0		0.5

Contract liabilities primarily relate to client advances received prior to completion of performance obligations. Reductions in contract liabilities are a result of our completion of performance obligations.

Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $9.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we reclassified $2.7 million of contract assets to receivables as a result of the completion of the performance obligation and the right to the consideration becoming unconditional.

Restructuring and Other

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded net restructuring charges of $8.1 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily relate to the planned relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China, other announced facility closures in the Business Services segment and the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment. Other restructuring charges of $8.2 million are primarily comprised of increased reserves for employee termination litigation, environmental matters and lease terminations. We also recorded multi-employer pension plan (“MEPP”) withdrawal obligation charges of $0.7 million and impairment charges related to facility closures of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded net restructuring charges of $3.2 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment and an announced facility closure in the Business Services segment. We also incurred charges for lease termination and other restructuring of $1.4 million and MEPP withdrawal obligations of $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Additionally, we recorded a $4.9 million net gain on the sale of previously impaired assets in the Business Services segment. These assets were impaired in 2015.

Restructuring and MEPP Reserves

Restructuring and MEPP reserves as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, and changes during the three months ended March 31, 2019, were as follows:

			Restructuring		Foreign
	December 31,		and Other		Exchange and			Cash			March 31,
	2018		Charges		Other			Paid			2019
Employee terminations	$	4.8	$	8.1	$	(1.1	)	$	(2.4	)	$	9.4
MEPP withdrawal obligations		44.2		0.7		—			(1.6	)		43.3
Lease terminations and other		6.2		8.2		0.1			(3.5	)		11.0
Total	$	55.2	$	17.0	$	(1.0	)	$	(7.5	)	$	63.7

The current portion of restructuring reserves of $22.9 million at March 31, 2019 was included in Accrued liabilities and other, while the long-term portion of $40.8 million, primarily related to MEPP withdrawal obligations, employee terminations in litigation and lease termination costs, was included in Other noncurrent liabilities at March 31, 2019. The total liabilities for the withdrawal obligations associated with our decision to withdraw from all MEPPs included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other noncurrent liabilities are $6.6 million and $36.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2019.

We anticipate that payments associated with the employee terminations reflected in the above table will be substantially completed by March 2020, excluding employee terminations in litigation within the Business Services segment.

Payments on all of our MEPP withdrawal obligations are scheduled to be substantially completed by 2034. Changes based on uncertainties in these estimated withdrawal obligations could affect the ultimate charges related to MEPP withdrawals.

The restructuring liabilities classified as “lease terminations and other” consisted of lease terminations, other facility closing costs and contract termination costs. Payments on certain of the lease obligations are scheduled to continue until 2020. Market conditions and our ability to sublease these properties could affect the ultimate charges related to the lease obligations. Any potential recoveries or additional charges could affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we contributed $2.0 million to our retirement plans.

8. Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation expense totaled $3.4 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In March 2019, we awarded our annual share-based compensation grants, which consisted of 0.6 million restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of $4.77 per unit and 0.6 million performance share units also with a grant date fair value of $4.77 per unit. The restricted stock units are subject to a three year graded vesting period and the performance share units are subject to a 34 month cliff vesting period. Dividends are not paid on restricted stock units.

In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we granted 1.3 million cash-settled restricted stock units (“phantom restricted stock units”) and 0.4 million cash-settled performance stock units (“phantom performance stock units”). Our share price on the date of grant was $5.03. The phantom restricted stock units vest and are payable in three equal installments over a period of three years after the grant date. The phantom performance stock units are subject to a 34 month cliff vesting period. Phantom stock units are not shares of our common stock and therefore the recipients of these awards do not receive ownership interest in the Company or stockholder voting rights. Phantom stock unit awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to vesting, subject in some cases to early vesting upon specified events, including death or permanent disability of the grantee, termination of the grantee’s employment under certain circumstances or a change in control of the Company. All phantom stock unit awards are classified as liability awards due to their expected settlement in cash, and are included in Accrued liabilities and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Compensation expense for these awards is measured based upon the fair value of the awards at the end of each reporting period. Dividends are not paid on phantom stock units.

10. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to RRD common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Performance share units are excluded if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares is contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Additionally, stock options are considered anti-dilutive when the exercise price exceeds the average market value of our stock price during the applicable period. In periods when we are in a net loss, share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, no shares of common stock were purchased by us; however, shares were withheld for tax liabilities upon the vesting of equity awards.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

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

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

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

In April 2019, we received a subpoena from the SEC related to previous business dealings with the Brazilian Ministry of Education. We are cooperating with the SEC as they conduct their investigation.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in Operating lease assets, Short-term operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Operating lease assets also include any lease payments made and are reduced by any lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when we are reasonably certain that we will exercise any such options. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

Our most significant leases are real estate leases for plants, warehouses, storage facilities, offices and other facilities. For real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element. Our remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of machinery and technology equipment. Finance leases are not material.

Certain of our operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed-through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes and common area maintenance, payments based on the usage of the asset and rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Pass-through charges, payments due to change in usage of the asset and payments due to changes in inflation are included within variable rent expense.

Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees, restrictions or covenants.

The components of lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Operating lease cost	$	24.6
Variable lease cost		9.3
Short-term lease cost		0.4
Sublease income		(0.3	)
Total lease cost	$	34.0

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

The fair values of the senior notes and debentures, which were determined using the market approach based upon interest rates available to us for borrowings with similar terms and maturities, were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our total debt was greater than its book value by approximately $13.8 million and less than its book value by approximately $14.4 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

On February 1, 2019, we retired the $172.2 million 11.25% senior notes using availability under our asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Agreement”).

On October 15, 2018, we entered into a $550.0 million senior secured Term Loan B credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Agreement, net of a $5.5 million discount, were used to repurchase certain senior notes, pay transaction fees and repay a portion of borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including certain material real property, subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a first-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to incur debt, make investments, make certain restricted payments (including payments on certain other debt and external dividends), incur liens securing other debt, consummate certain fundamental transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates and consummate asset sales. The Term Loan Credit Agreement requires that the net cash proceeds of significant asset sales be used to prepay borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, except in certain circumstances, including the reinvestment of net cash proceeds in assets useful to our business, repayment of borrowings under our ABL Credit Agreement or the funding of debt tenders, in each case, subject to certain restrictions and limitations set forth in the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on January 15, 2024, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Principal payments of $1.4 million are due quarterly. Borrowings will bear interest at a Eurocurrency rate plus a margin of 5% or a base rate plus a margin of 4%.

On October 15, 2018, we repurchased $172.6 million and $257.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.625% senior notes due 2020 and 7.875% senior notes due 2021, respectively, pursuant to a tender offer. We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $32.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the repurchase of the bonds, representing tender premiums paid of $29.0 million, write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.5 million and fees and expenses of $1.8 million.

On September 29, 2017, we entered into the ABL Credit Agreement which amended and restated our prior $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility dated September 30, 2016. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $800.0 million. The amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement is equal to the lesser of (a) $800.0 million and (b) a borrowing base formula based on the amount of accounts receivable, inventory, machinery, equipment and, if we were to so elect in the future subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, fee-owned real estate of ours and the Guarantors, subject to certain eligibility criteria and advance rates (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The aggregate amount of real estate, machinery and equipment that can be included in the Borrowing Base cannot exceed $200.0 million.

On October 15, 2018, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the ABL Credit Agreement, which amended the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit (i) the incurrence of the debt pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and (ii) the incurrence of a lien on the ABL Priority Collateral to secure our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis.

Our obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including, only to the extent included in the Borrowing Base, real property, in each case subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The assets of ours and the Guarantors consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts, machinery and equipment and, to the extent related to the foregoing, general intangibles, documents and instruments, as well as 65% of the equity interests of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”), secure our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement and the related guarantees on a first-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement on a second-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including a covenant which requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances. In addition, our ability to undertake certain actions, including, among other things, prepay certain junior debt, incur additional unsecured indebtedness and make certain restricted payments depends on satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, meeting minimum borrowing availability thresholds under the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $60.0 million in aggregate, though additional dividends may be allowed subject to certain conditions.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate dependent on the average quarterly availability under the ABL Credit Agreement and is calculated according to a base rate (except in certain circumstances, based on the prime rate) or a Eurocurrency rate (except in certain circumstances, based on London Inter-bank Offered Rate or “LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% and the applicable margin for Eurocurrency loans ranges from 1.25% to 1.50%. In addition, a fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement. The fee accrues at a rate of either 0.25% or 0.375% depending upon the average usage of the facility.

The ABL Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on September 29, 2022, at which time all outstanding amounts under the ABL Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Based on our borrowing base as of March 31, 2019 and existing borrowings, we had approximately $378.2 million borrowing capacity available under the ABL Credit Agreement.

The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under our current and prior credit facilities was 3.9% and 3.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Interest paid, net of interest capitalized, was $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Interest income was $0.8 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.   

15. Derivatives

All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. Unrealized gains and losses related to derivatives are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, or in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. At the inception of a hedge transaction, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, we assess both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is also recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which we operate. The exposure to foreign currency movements is limited in many countries because the operating revenues and expenses of our various subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the country in which they operate. To the extent borrowings, sales, purchases, revenues, expenses or other transactions are not in the local currency of the subsidiary or operating unit, we are exposed to currency risk. Periodically, we use foreign exchange spot and forward contracts to hedge exposures resulting from foreign exchange fluctuations. Accordingly, the gains and losses associated with the fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are generally offset by gains and losses on underlying payables, receivables and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The aggregate notional value of the forward contracts at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $121.3 million and $170.8 million, respectively. The fair values of foreign currency contracts were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and are valued using market exchange rates.

The total fair value of our foreign currency contracts, which were the only derivatives not designated as hedges, included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets at March 31, 2019and December 31, 2018, was $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. In addition, there was $0.3 million of these derivatives included in Accrued liabilities and other at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

16. Dispositions

On March 31, 2019, our subsidiary, RR Donnelley Editora e Grafica Ltda. (“RRD Brazil”), filed for bankruptcy liquidation in bankruptcy court in Brazil. The bankruptcy petition was approved by the court shortly thereafter and a bankruptcy trustee was appointed. As a result of the bankruptcy liquidation, we recorded a gain of $4.6 million in Other operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily reflecting the reclassification of cumulative currency translation adjustments into earnings. Subsequent to March 31, 2019, the operating results of RRD Brazil will no longer be included in our consolidated results of operations. RRD Brazil had net sales of $8.8 million and $16.5 million and a loss before income taxes of $4.1 million and $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The operations of RRD Brazil were included in the Business Services segment.

On July 2, 2018, we completed the sale of our Print Logistics business for $60.0 million cash, of which we received $43.9 million after transaction costs, working capital adjustments and $4.9 million of cash which was included in the disposition. Net proceeds from the sale were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on our ABL Credit Agreement. The disposition resulted in a pre-tax gain of $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, which was recorded in Other operating income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Income taxes paid as a result of the sale were insignificant due to the utilization of capital loss carryforwards to offset the taxable gain. Prior to the sale, operating results for the Print Logistics business were reported as services within the Business Services segment.

17. New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-02 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which permits the reclassification of tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The standard also requires entities to disclose whether or not they elected to reclassify the tax effects related to the Tax Act from accumulated other comprehensive income. The standard allows the option of applying either a retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods in which the effect of the Tax Act is recognized, or applying the amendments in the period of adoption, meaning an adjustment is made to stockholders’ equity as of the beginning of the reporting period. ASU 2018-02 was effective in the first quarter of 2019; however, early adoption was permitted for interim and annual periods, including the reporting period in which the Tax Act was enacted. As of July 1, 2018, we adopted the provisions of ASU 2018-02, which resulted in a decrease to Accumulated deficit and increase to Accumulated other comprehensive loss of $22.0 million.

In January 2018, the FASB released guidance on the accounting for tax on the global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the Tax Act. The GILTI provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The guidance indicates that either accounting for deferred taxes related to GILTI inclusions or treating any taxes on GILTI inclusions as period costs are both acceptable methods subject to an accounting policy election. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we elected to treat the tax effect of GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” which requires lessees to record most leases on the balance sheet. Topic 842 was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The new standard requires a lessee to recognize a right-of use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months and requires additional disclosures. For lessors, Topic 842 also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01 “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842”; ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”; ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” (“ASU 2018-11”); ASU No. 2018-20 “Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors”; and ASU No. 2019-01 “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements”. ASU 2018-11 provides clarity on separating components of a lease contract and includes an option to not restate comparative periods in transition and elect to use the effective date of Topic 842 as the date of initial application. 

We adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2019 using the effective date as the date of initial application. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are presented under Topic 842. Information prior to the effective date continues to be presented in accordance with the previous lease guidance, “Leases (Topic 840)”.

We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification of those leases in place as of December 31, 2018.

See Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies, for further discussion.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Not Yet Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract” (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. ASU 2018-15 will be effective for us in 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-15 on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans” (“ASU 2018-14”), which removes certain disclosures that are no longer cost beneficial and also includes additional disclosures to improve the overall usefulness of the disclosure requirements to financial statement users. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for us in 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-14 on the consolidated financial statements.

Executive Overview

First Quarter Overview

Net sales decreased by $185.9 million, or 10.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. Net sales decreased $107.4 million due to the disposition of our Print Logistics business and $21.3 million due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Consolidated

Net sales of products for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased $55.7 million, or 4.3%, to $1,230.9 million versus the same period in 2018. The first quarter of 2019 included a $19.5 million, or 1.5%, decrease due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Net sales of products also decreased due to lower volume in commercial print due to ongoing secular pressure and lower volume in statements, as well as price pressure, partially offset by higher volume in labels.

Net sales from services for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased $130.2 million, or 30.9%, to $291.0 million versus the same period in 2018. Net sales from services decreased $107.4 million due to the disposition of our Print Logistics business. Net sales also decreased due to lower volume in our remaining logistics business and in digital and creative solutions as we continue our shift away from traditional pre-media services for non-core market segments.

Products cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased $43.1 million, or 4.1%, to $1,008.8 million versus the same period in 2018. Products cost of sales decreased primarily due to changes in foreign exchange rates, cost control initiatives across both segments and lower volume in commercial print, partially offset by cost inflation. As a percentage of net sales, products cost of sales increased 0.2 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018.

Services cost of sales decreased $126.4 million, or 35.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018, primarily due to the disposition of our Print Logistics business and cost control initiatives. As a percentage of net sales, services cost of sales decreased 5.1 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018.

Products gross profit decreased $12.6 million to $222.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018, primarily due to lower volume, unfavorable product mix, price pressures and cost inflation, partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates and cost control initiatives. Products gross margin decreased from 18.2% to 18.0%.

Services gross profit decreased $3.8 million to $56.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018, primarily due to cost inflation. Services gross margin increased from 14.2% in 2018 to 19.3% in 2019 primarily due to the favorable impact from selling our Print Logistics business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $15.0 million to $199.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018 reflecting the favorable impact from selling our Print Logistics business and cost control initiatives, partially offset by higher performance-based compensation expenses. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 12.6% to 13.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018.

26

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, net restructuring and other expenses of $17.1 million increased $16.3 million versus the same period in 2018. These expenses included $8.1 million for employee termination costs, primarily related to the planned relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China. We also recorded other restructuring charges of $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 which was primarily comprised of increased reserves for employee termination litigation, environmental matters and lease terminations. See Note 6, Restructuring and Other, within the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $4.5 million to $42.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to lower capital spending in recent years compared to historical levels. Depreciation and amortization included $6.4 million and $7.0 million of amortization of other intangible assets related to client relationships, trade names, trademarks, licenses and agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Other operating income increased by $4.3 million primarily due to the reclassification of cumulative currency translation adjustments into earnings as a result of the bankruptcy liquidation of RRD Brazil on March 31, 2019. See Note 16, Dispositions, for further discussion.

Income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $23.3 million, a decrease of $8.9 million, or 27.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Net interest expense decreased by $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 versus the same period in 2018, primarily due to lower average interest rates during three months ended March 31, 2019.

Investment and other income, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $4.5 million and $5.6 million, respectively, and principally comprised of net OPEB and pension income.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was a benefit of 30.9%. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was an expense of 132.5% and was primarily driven by the inability to recognize a tax benefit on certain losses and limitations on the interest expense deduction.

Income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $8.5 million compared to $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Net sales decreased $107.4 million due to the disposition of our Print Logistics business and $21.3 million due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The remaining decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower volume in commercial print due to ongoing secular pressure, lower volume in the remaining logistics business and statements and price pressures across the segment, partially offset by higher volume in labels.The following table summarizes net sales by products and services in the Business Services segment:

Business Services segment income from operations decreased $11.2 million to $28.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to higher restructuring expense, lower volume and start-up costs for new business in statements, price pressures and cost inflation, partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates, lower depreciation and amortization expense and cost control initiatives.

Net sales for the Marketing Solutions segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $285.6 million, a decrease of $6.1 million, or 2.1%, compared to 2018. Net sales decreased primarily due to lower volume in digital and creative solutions as we continue our shift away from traditional pre-media services for non-core market segments. The following table summarizes net sales by products and services in the Marketing Solutions segment:

Corporate

Corporate operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $13.8 million, a decrease of $6.1 million compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily driven by lower bad debt expense and other operating income, partially offset by higher restructuring and other expenses. The following table summarizes unallocated operating expenses and certain items impacting comparability within the activities presented as Corporate:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to support our ongoing operations and to invest in future growth to create value for our stockholders. Operating cash flows and available capacity under our asset-based senior secured revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) are our primary sources of liquidity and are expected to be used for, among other things, capital expenditures necessary to support productivity improvement and growth, completion of restructuring programs, acquisitions, payment of interest and principal on our long-term debt obligations, and distributions to stockholders that require approval by the Board of Directors.

The following describes our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

	Three Months Ended

	2019			2018			$ Change
	(in millions)

Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(90.8	)	$	(42.1	)	$	(48.7	)

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

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $10.3 million lower than in the same period in 2018, primarily due to improvements in working capital.

Included in net cash used in operating activities were the following operating cash outflows:

Significant cash (outflows) inflows included in investing and financing activities for each period were as follows:

Net borrowings under credit facilities		259.0			42.0			217.0
Dividends paid		(2.1	)		(9.8	)		7.7

Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $15.9 million higher than the same period in 2018, primarily due to investments associated with building a new facility following the expected sale and relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and additional investments related to the recently awarded 2020 Census contract.

Proceeds from sale of investments and other assets for the three months ended March 31, 2018 included $32.1 million cash received as a deposit for the expected sale of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and cash proceeds from the sale of investments and other assets of $15.6 million.

LIQUIDITY

Cash and cash equivalents of $274.3 million as of March 31, 2019 included $25.7 million in the U.S. and $248.6 million at international locations. We have recognized deferred tax liabilities of $5.8 million as of March 31, 2019 related to local taxes on certain foreign earnings that are not considered to be permanently reinvested. Certain other cash balances of foreign subsidiaries, if repatriated to the U.S., may be subject to additional tax which would depend on income tax laws and circumstances at the time of distribution. In addition, repatriation of some foreign cash balances is further restricted by local laws. We regularly evaluate whether foreign earnings are expected to be permanently reinvested. This evaluation requires judgment about our future operating and liquidity needs. Changes in economic and business conditions, foreign or U.S. tax laws, or our financial situation could result in changes to these judgments and the need to record additional tax liabilities.

Included in Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2019 were $53.5 million of short-term investments, which primarily consisted of short-term deposits and money market funds. These investments are held at institutions with sound credit ratings and are expected to be highly liquid.

On February 1, 2019, we retired the $172.2 million 11.25% senior notes using availability under our ABL Credit Agreement.

On October 15, 2018, we entered into a $550.0 million senior secured Term Loan B credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Agreement, net of a $5.5 million discount, were used to repurchase certain senior notes, pay transaction fees and repay a portion of borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including certain material real property, subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a first-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to incur debt, make investments, make certain restricted payments (including payments on certain other debt and external dividends), incur liens securing other debt, consummate certain fundamental transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates and consummate asset sales. The Term Loan Credit Agreement requires that the net cash proceeds of significant asset sales be used to prepay borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, except in certain circumstances, including the reinvestment of net cash proceeds in assets useful to our business, repayment of borrowings under our ABL Credit Agreement or the funding of debt tenders, in each case, subject to certain restrictions and limitations set forth in the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

30

The Term Loan Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on January 15, 2024, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Principal payments of $1.4 million are due quarterly. Borrowings will bear interest at a Eurocurrency rate plus a margin of 5% or a base rate plus a margin of 4%.

On October 15, 2018, we repurchased $172.6 million and $257.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.625% senior notes due 2020 and 7.875% senior notes due 2021, respectively, pursuant to a tender offer. We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $32.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the repurchase of the bonds, representing tender premiums paid of $29.0 million, write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.5 million and fees and expenses of $1.8 million.

On September 29, 2017, we entered into the ABL Credit Agreement which amended and restated our prior $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility dated September 30, 2016. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $800.0 million. The amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement is equal to the lesser of (a) $800.0 million and (b) a borrowing base formula based on the amount of accounts receivable, inventory, machinery, equipment and, if we were to so elect in the future subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, fee-owned real estate of ours and the Guarantors, subject to certain eligibility criteria and advance rates (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The aggregate amount of real estate, machinery and equipment that can be included in the Borrowing Base cannot exceed $200.0 million.

On October 15, 2018, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the ABL Credit Agreement, which amended the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit (i) the incurrence of the debt pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and (ii) the incurrence of a lien on the ABL Priority Collateral to secure our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis.

Our obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including, only to the extent included in the Borrowing Base, real property, in each case subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The assets of ours and the Guarantors consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts, machinery and equipment and, to the extent related to the foregoing, general intangibles, documents and instruments, as well as 65% of the equity interests of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”), secure our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement and the related guarantees on a first-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement on a second-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including a covenant which requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances. In addition, our ability to undertake certain actions, including, among other things, prepay certain junior debt, incur additional unsecured indebtedness and make certain restricted payments depends on satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, meeting minimum borrowing availability thresholds under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate dependent on the average quarterly availability under the ABL Credit Agreement and are calculated according to a base rate (except in certain circumstances, based on the prime rate) or a Eurocurrency rate (except in certain circumstances, based on LIBOR) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% and the applicable margin for Eurocurrency loans ranges from 1.25% to 1.50%. In addition, a fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement. The fee accrues at a rate of either 0.25% or 0.375% depending upon the average usage of the facility.

The ABL Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on September 29, 2022, at which time all outstanding amounts under the ABL Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

There were $318.0 million of borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2019. Based on our borrowing base as of March 31, 2019 and existing borrowings, we had approximately $378.2 million borrowing capacity available under the ABL Credit Agreement.

31

The current availability under the ABL Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2019 is shown in the table below:

	March 31, 2019
Availability	(in millions)
ABL Credit Agreement	$	800.0
Availability reduction due to available borrowing base		70.0
	$	730.0
Usage
Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement	$	318.0
Outstanding letters of credit		33.8
	$	351.8
Current availability at March 31, 2019	$	378.2
Cash and cash equivalents		274.3
Total available liquidity (a)	$	652.5

(a) Total available liquidity does not include credit facilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries, which are uncommitted facilities.

As of March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with the debt covenants under the ABL Credit Agreement and expect to remain in compliance based on our estimates of operating and financial results for 2019 and the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2019, we met all the conditions required to borrow under the ABL Credit Agreement and we expect to continue to meet the borrowing conditions.

The failure of a financial institution supporting the ABL Credit Agreement would reduce the size of our committed facility unless a replacement institution was added. Currently, the ABL Credit Agreement is supported by eight U.S. financial institutions.

As of March 31, 2019, we had $140.5 million in other uncommitted credit facilities, primarily outside the U.S. (the “Other Facilities”). There were $96.6 million in outstanding letters of credit, bank guarantees and bank acceptance drafts which reduced availability, of which $33.8 million were issued under the ABL Credit Agreement. Total borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement and the Other Facilities (the “Combined Facilities”) were $350.7 million as of March 31, 2019.

Our liquidity may be affected by our credit ratings. During the first quarter of 2018, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) downgraded our long-term corporate credit rating from B1 to B2 and downgraded the senior unsecured debt credit rating from B2 to B3. The outlook remained stable. During the third quarter of 2018, S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) affirmed our long-term credit rating but revised the outlook from stable to negative and lowered the credit ratings on the senior unsecured debt from B to B-. Our S&P and Moody’s credit ratings as of March 31, 2019 are shown in the table below:

	S&P	Moody's
Long-term corporate credit rating	B, Neg	B2, Stable
Senior unsecured debt	B-	B3
Term Loan Credit Agreement	B+	B1

During the fourth quarter of 2017, we entered into an agreement to sell a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and transfer the related land use rights. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we received non-refundable deposits in accordance with the terms of the agreement of approximately $32.1 million, which are recorded in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additional deposits will be paid to us in accordance with the agreement. Based on the current exchange rate, gross proceeds from the sale, including non-refundable deposits, are expected to be approximately $250.0 million and we expect the transaction to close in 2021 after closing conditions are satisfied and government approvals are obtained. As of March 31, 2019 we continue to classify the carrying cost of the building within property, plant and equipment and record depreciation expense. The combined carrying cost of the building and land use rights is not significant.

Dividends

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we paid cash dividends of $2.1 million. On April 4, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per common share, payable on June 3, 2019 to stockholders of record on May 15, 2019.

32

MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable debt and price risk on our fixed-rate debt. At March 31, 2019, our variable-interest borrowings were $899.3 million. Approximately 59.0% of our outstanding debt was comprised of fixed-rate debt as of March 31, 2019.

We assess market risk based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential loss in earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates. Using this sensitivity analysis, such changes would not have a material effect on interest income or expense and cash flows and would change the fair values of fixed-rate debt at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by approximately $32.0 million and $35.4 million, respectively.

We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which we operate. The exposure to foreign currency movements is limited in many countries because the operating revenues and expenses of our various subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the country in which they operate. To the extent that borrowings, sales, purchases, revenues, expenses or other transactions are not in the local currency of the subsidiary, we are exposed to currency risk and may enter into foreign exchange contracts to hedge the currency risk. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the aggregate notional amount of outstanding foreign currency contracts was approximately $121.3 million and $170.8 million, respectively (see Note 15, Derivatives, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Net unrealized gains from these foreign currency contracts were $0.3 million at March 31, 2019 and $0.6 million at December 31, 2018. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company and its subsidiaries (“RRD,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	274.3	$	370.6
Restricted cash - current (a)		38.4		32.9
Restricted cash - noncurrent (b)		0.1		0.1
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	312.8	$	403.6

(a) Included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

(b) Included within Other noncurrent assets within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Cash payments for income taxes were $26.4 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Cash refunds for income taxes were $0.7 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Income taxes receivable of $27.9 million and $11.7 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition

2. Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. All revenue recognized in the Condensed Statements of Operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with clients.

We recorded a net increase to opening retained earnings of $12.9 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to the timing of revenue recognition for certain inventory that has been billed but not yet shipped.

Products

Our products revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time. We generally recognize revenue for products upon the transfer of control of the products to the client which typically occurs upon transfer of title and risk of ownership, which is generally upon shipment to the client. For certain products, we are able to recognize revenue for completed inventory billed but not yet shipped at the client’s direction.

The following is a description of our products:

Commercial Print

We generate revenue by providing various commercial printing products and offer a full range of branded materials including manuals, publications, brochures, business cards, flyers, post cards, posters and promotional items.

Packaging

We generate revenue by providing packaging solutions, ranging from rigid boxes to in-box print materials, for clients in consumer electronics, life sciences, cosmetics and consumer packaged goods industries.

Statements

We generate revenue by creating critical business communications, including customer billings, financial statements, healthcare communications and insurance documents. Our capabilities include design and composition, variable imaging, email, archival and digital mail interaction, as well as our innovative RRDigital solution set.

Direct Marketing

We generate revenue by providing audience segmentation, creative development, program testing, print production, postal optimization and performance analytics for large-scale personalized direct mail programs.

Labels

We generate revenue by producing custom labels for clients across multiple industries including warehouse and distribution, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and consumer packaging. We offer distribution and shipping labels, healthcare and durable goods labels, promotional labels and consumer product goods packaging labels.

Digital Print and Fulfillment

We generate revenue by providing in-store marketing materials, including signage and point-of-purchase materials, as well as custom marketing kits that require multiple types of marketing collateral. Under the trade name Motif^TM, we also create custom photobooks.

Supply Chain Management

We generate revenue by providing workflow design to assembly, configuration, kitting and fulfillment for clients in consumer electronics, telecommunications, life sciences, cosmetics, education and industrial industries.

Forms

We generate revenue by producing a variety of forms including invoices, order forms and business forms that support both the private and public sectors for clients in financial, government, retail, healthcare and business services industries.

Services

Our services revenue is recognized both at a point in time and over time. Our logistics revenue is primarily recognized over time as the performance obligation is completed. Due to the short transit period of logistics performance obligations, the timing of revenue recognition does not require significant judgment. Our business process outsourcing and digital and creative solutions revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, depending on the nature of the service which could be either recurring or project-based.

Logistics

We generate revenue by providing specialized transportation and distribution services using our third party logistics solutions. These services are comprised of freight services, including truckload, less-than-truckload, intermodal and international freight forwarding; international mail and parcel distribution; and courier services including same day and next day delivery. As discussed in Note 16, Dispositions, we sold our Print Logistics business on July 2, 2018. Print Logistics services included the distribution of retail and newsstand printed materials.

Business Process Outsourcing

We generate revenue by providing outsourcing services including creative services, research and analytics, financial management and other services for legal providers, insurance, telecommunications, utilities, retail and financial services companies.

Digital and Creative Solutions

We generate revenue by creating and managing content for delivery across multiple marketing communications channels including print and digital advertising, direct marketing and mail, packaging, sales collateral, in-store marketing and social media.

Variable Consideration

Certain clients may receive volume-based rebates or early payment discounts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be earned by our clients and reduce revenue accordingly. We do not expect significant changes to estimates of variable consideration. Given the nature of our products and the history of returns, product returns are not significant.

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about contract assets and liabilities from contracts with clients:

	Contract Assets		Contract Liabilities
	Short-Term		Short-Term		Long-Term
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	2.7	$	16.5	$	0.6
Balance at March 31, 2019		3.7		12.0		0.5

Contract liabilities primarily relate to client advances received prior to completion of performance obligations. Reductions in contract liabilities are a result of our completion of performance obligations.

Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $9.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we reclassified $2.7 million of contract assets to receivables as a result of the completion of the performance obligation and the right to the consideration becoming unconditional.

Restructuring and Other

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded net restructuring charges of $8.1 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily relate to the planned relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China, other announced facility closures in the Business Services segment and the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment. Other restructuring charges of $8.2 million are primarily comprised of increased reserves for employee termination litigation, environmental matters and lease terminations. We also recorded multi-employer pension plan (“MEPP”) withdrawal obligation charges of $0.7 million and impairment charges related to facility closures of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded net restructuring charges of $3.2 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment and an announced facility closure in the Business Services segment. We also incurred charges for lease termination and other restructuring of $1.4 million and MEPP withdrawal obligations of $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Additionally, we recorded a $4.9 million net gain on the sale of previously impaired assets in the Business Services segment. These assets were impaired in 2015.

Restructuring and MEPP Reserves

Restructuring and MEPP reserves as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, and changes during the three months ended March 31, 2019, were as follows:

			Restructuring		Foreign
	December 31,		and Other		Exchange and			Cash			March 31,
	2018		Charges		Other			Paid			2019

Total	$	55.2	$	17.0	$	(1.0	)	$	(7.5	)	$	63.7

The current portion of restructuring reserves of $22.9 million at March 31, 2019 was included in Accrued liabilities and other, while the long-term portion of $40.8 million, primarily related to MEPP withdrawal obligations, employee terminations in litigation and lease termination costs, was included in Other noncurrent liabilities at March 31, 2019. The total liabilities for the withdrawal obligations associated with our decision to withdraw from all MEPPs included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other noncurrent liabilities are $6.6 million and $36.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2019.

We anticipate that payments associated with the employee terminations reflected in the above table will be substantially completed by March 2020, excluding employee terminations in litigation within the Business Services segment.

Payments on all of our MEPP withdrawal obligations are scheduled to be substantially completed by 2034. Changes based on uncertainties in these estimated withdrawal obligations could affect the ultimate charges related to MEPP withdrawals.

The restructuring liabilities classified as “lease terminations and other” consisted of lease terminations, other facility closing costs and contract termination costs. Payments on certain of the lease obligations are scheduled to continue until 2020. Market conditions and our ability to sublease these properties could affect the ultimate charges related to the lease obligations. Any potential recoveries or additional charges could affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements.

Share-Based Compensation

8. Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation expense totaled $3.4 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In March 2019, we awarded our annual share-based compensation grants, which consisted of 0.6 million restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of $4.77 per unit and 0.6 million performance share units also with a grant date fair value of $4.77 per unit. The restricted stock units are subject to a three year graded vesting period and the performance share units are subject to a 34 month cliff vesting period. Dividends are not paid on restricted stock units.

In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we granted 1.3 million cash-settled restricted stock units (“phantom restricted stock units”) and 0.4 million cash-settled performance stock units (“phantom performance stock units”). Our share price on the date of grant was $5.03. The phantom restricted stock units vest and are payable in three equal installments over a period of three years after the grant date. The phantom performance stock units are subject to a 34 month cliff vesting period. Phantom stock units are not shares of our common stock and therefore the recipients of these awards do not receive ownership interest in the Company or stockholder voting rights. Phantom stock unit awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to vesting, subject in some cases to early vesting upon specified events, including death or permanent disability of the grantee, termination of the grantee’s employment under certain circumstances or a change in control of the Company. All phantom stock unit awards are classified as liability awards due to their expected settlement in cash, and are included in Accrued liabilities and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Compensation expense for these awards is measured based upon the fair value of the awards at the end of each reporting period. Dividends are not paid on phantom stock units.

Earnings per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Share

10. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to RRD common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Performance share units are excluded if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares is contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Additionally, stock options are considered anti-dilutive when the exercise price exceeds the average market value of our stock price during the applicable period. In periods when we are in a net loss, share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, no shares of common stock were purchased by us; however, shares were withheld for tax liabilities upon the vesting of equity awards.

The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation and the anti-dilutive share-based awards for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

13. Commitments and Contingencies

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

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

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

In April 2019, we received a subpoena from the SEC related to previous business dealings with the Brazilian Ministry of Education. We are cooperating with the SEC as they conduct their investigation.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in Operating lease assets, Short-term operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Operating lease assets also include any lease payments made and are reduced by any lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when we are reasonably certain that we will exercise any such options. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

Our most significant leases are real estate leases for plants, warehouses, storage facilities, offices and other facilities. For real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element. Our remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of machinery and technology equipment. Finance leases are not material.

Certain of our operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed-through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes and common area maintenance, payments based on the usage of the asset and rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Pass-through charges, payments due to change in usage of the asset and payments due to changes in inflation are included within variable rent expense.

Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees, restrictions or covenants.

The components of lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Operating lease cost	$	24.6
Variable lease cost		9.3
Short-term lease cost		0.4
Sublease income		(0.3	)
Total lease cost	$	34.0

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities
Operating cash flows from operating leases	$	22.0
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations

As of March 31, 2019, the future lease payments under operating leases were as follows:

(a) As of December 31, 2018 the interest rate on the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019 had contractually increased to 13.25%.

(b) As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the interest rate on the Term Loan Credit Agreement due January 15, 2024 was 7.50% and 7.51%, respectively.

(c) Includes miscellaneous debt obligations.

The fair values of the senior notes and debentures, which were determined using the market approach based upon interest rates available to us for borrowings with similar terms and maturities, were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our total debt was greater than its book value by approximately $13.8 million and less than its book value by approximately $14.4 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

On February 1, 2019, we retired the $172.2 million 11.25% senior notes using availability under our asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Agreement”).

On October 15, 2018, we entered into a $550.0 million senior secured Term Loan B credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Agreement, net of a $5.5 million discount, were used to repurchase certain senior notes, pay transaction fees and repay a portion of borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including certain material real property, subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a first-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to incur debt, make investments, make certain restricted payments (including payments on certain other debt and external dividends), incur liens securing other debt, consummate certain fundamental transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates and consummate asset sales. The Term Loan Credit Agreement requires that the net cash proceeds of significant asset sales be used to prepay borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, except in certain circumstances, including the reinvestment of net cash proceeds in assets useful to our business, repayment of borrowings under our ABL Credit Agreement or the funding of debt tenders, in each case, subject to certain restrictions and limitations set forth in the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on January 15, 2024, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Principal payments of $1.4 million are due quarterly. Borrowings will bear interest at a Eurocurrency rate plus a margin of 5% or a base rate plus a margin of 4%.

On October 15, 2018, we repurchased $172.6 million and $257.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.625% senior notes due 2020 and 7.875% senior notes due 2021, respectively, pursuant to a tender offer. We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $32.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the repurchase of the bonds, representing tender premiums paid of $29.0 million, write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.5 million and fees and expenses of $1.8 million.

On September 29, 2017, we entered into the ABL Credit Agreement which amended and restated our prior $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility dated September 30, 2016. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $800.0 million. The amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement is equal to the lesser of (a) $800.0 million and (b) a borrowing base formula based on the amount of accounts receivable, inventory, machinery, equipment and, if we were to so elect in the future subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, fee-owned real estate of ours and the Guarantors, subject to certain eligibility criteria and advance rates (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The aggregate amount of real estate, machinery and equipment that can be included in the Borrowing Base cannot exceed $200.0 million.

On October 15, 2018, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the ABL Credit Agreement, which amended the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit (i) the incurrence of the debt pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and (ii) the incurrence of a lien on the ABL Priority Collateral to secure our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis.

Our obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including, only to the extent included in the Borrowing Base, real property, in each case subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The assets of ours and the Guarantors consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts, machinery and equipment and, to the extent related to the foregoing, general intangibles, documents and instruments, as well as 65% of the equity interests of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”), secure our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement and the related guarantees on a first-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement on a second-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including a covenant which requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances. In addition, our ability to undertake certain actions, including, among other things, prepay certain junior debt, incur additional unsecured indebtedness and make certain restricted payments depends on satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, meeting minimum borrowing availability thresholds under the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement generally allows annual dividend payments of up to $60.0 million in aggregate, though additional dividends may be allowed subject to certain conditions.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate dependent on the average quarterly availability under the ABL Credit Agreement and is calculated according to a base rate (except in certain circumstances, based on the prime rate) or a Eurocurrency rate (except in certain circumstances, based on London Inter-bank Offered Rate or “LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% and the applicable margin for Eurocurrency loans ranges from 1.25% to 1.50%. In addition, a fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement. The fee accrues at a rate of either 0.25% or 0.375% depending upon the average usage of the facility.

The ABL Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on September 29, 2022, at which time all outstanding amounts under the ABL Credit Agreement will be due and payable. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Based on our borrowing base as of March 31, 2019 and existing borrowings, we had approximately $378.2 million borrowing capacity available under the ABL Credit Agreement.

The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under our current and prior credit facilities was 3.9% and 3.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Interest paid, net of interest capitalized, was $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Interest income was $0.8 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

15. Derivatives

All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. Unrealized gains and losses related to derivatives are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, or in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. At the inception of a hedge transaction, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, we assess both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is also recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations in certain countries in which we operate. The exposure to foreign currency movements is limited in many countries because the operating revenues and expenses of our various subsidiaries and business units are substantially in the local currency of the country in which they operate. To the extent borrowings, sales, purchases, revenues, expenses or other transactions are not in the local currency of the subsidiary or operating unit, we are exposed to currency risk. Periodically, we use foreign exchange spot and forward contracts to hedge exposures resulting from foreign exchange fluctuations. Accordingly, the gains and losses associated with the fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are generally offset by gains and losses on underlying payables, receivables and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The aggregate notional value of the forward contracts at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $121.3 million and $170.8 million, respectively. The fair values of foreign currency contracts were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and are valued using market exchange rates.

The total fair value of our foreign currency contracts, which were the only derivatives not designated as hedges, included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets at March 31, 2019and December 31, 2018, was $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. In addition, there was $0.3 million of these derivatives included in Accrued liabilities and other at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Discontinued Operations And Disposal Groups [Abstract]

Dispositions

16. Dispositions

On March 31, 2019, our subsidiary, RR Donnelley Editora e Grafica Ltda. (“RRD Brazil”), filed for bankruptcy liquidation in bankruptcy court in Brazil. The bankruptcy petition was approved by the court shortly thereafter and a bankruptcy trustee was appointed. As a result of the bankruptcy liquidation, we recorded a gain of $4.6 million in Other operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily reflecting the reclassification of cumulative currency translation adjustments into earnings. Subsequent to March 31, 2019, the operating results of RRD Brazil will no longer be included in our consolidated results of operations. RRD Brazil had net sales of $8.8 million and $16.5 million and a loss before income taxes of $4.1 million and $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The operations of RRD Brazil were included in the Business Services segment.

On July 2, 2018, we completed the sale of our Print Logistics business for $60.0 million cash, of which we received $43.9 million after transaction costs, working capital adjustments and $4.9 million of cash which was included in the disposition. Net proceeds from the sale were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on our ABL Credit Agreement. The disposition resulted in a pre-tax gain of $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, which was recorded in Other operating income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Income taxes paid as a result of the sale were insignificant due to the utilization of capital loss carryforwards to offset the taxable gain. Prior to the sale, operating results for the Print Logistics business were reported as services within the Business Services segment.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

New Accounting Pronouncements

17. New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-02 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which permits the reclassification of tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The standard also requires entities to disclose whether or not they elected to reclassify the tax effects related to the Tax Act from accumulated other comprehensive income. The standard allows the option of applying either a retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods in which the effect of the Tax Act is recognized, or applying the amendments in the period of adoption, meaning an adjustment is made to stockholders’ equity as of the beginning of the reporting period. ASU 2018-02 was effective in the first quarter of 2019; however, early adoption was permitted for interim and annual periods, including the reporting period in which the Tax Act was enacted. As of July 1, 2018, we adopted the provisions of ASU 2018-02, which resulted in a decrease to Accumulated deficit and increase to Accumulated other comprehensive loss of $22.0 million.

In January 2018, the FASB released guidance on the accounting for tax on the global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the Tax Act. The GILTI provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The guidance indicates that either accounting for deferred taxes related to GILTI inclusions or treating any taxes on GILTI inclusions as period costs are both acceptable methods subject to an accounting policy election. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we elected to treat the tax effect of GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” which requires lessees to record most leases on the balance sheet. Topic 842 was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The new standard requires a lessee to recognize a right-of use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months and requires additional disclosures. For lessors, Topic 842 also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01 “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842”; ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”; ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” (“ASU 2018-11”); ASU No. 2018-20 “Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors”; and ASU No. 2019-01 “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements”. ASU 2018-11 provides clarity on separating components of a lease contract and includes an option to not restate comparative periods in transition and elect to use the effective date of Topic 842 as the date of initial application. 

We adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2019 using the effective date as the date of initial application. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are presented under Topic 842. Information prior to the effective date continues to be presented in accordance with the previous lease guidance, “Leases (Topic 840)”.

We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification of those leases in place as of December 31, 2018.

See Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies, for further discussion.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Not Yet Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract” (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. ASU 2018-15 will be effective for us in 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-15 on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans” (“ASU 2018-14”), which removes certain disclosures that are no longer cost beneficial and also includes additional disclosures to improve the overall usefulness of the disclosure requirements to financial statement users. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for us in 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-14 on the consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. All revenue recognized in the Condensed Statements of Operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with clients.

We recorded a net increase to opening retained earnings of $12.9 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to the timing of revenue recognition for certain inventory that has been billed but not yet shipped.

Products

Our products revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time. We generally recognize revenue for products upon the transfer of control of the products to the client which typically occurs upon transfer of title and risk of ownership, which is generally upon shipment to the client. For certain products, we are able to recognize revenue for completed inventory billed but not yet shipped at the client’s direction.

The following is a description of our products:

Commercial Print

We generate revenue by providing various commercial printing products and offer a full range of branded materials including manuals, publications, brochures, business cards, flyers, post cards, posters and promotional items.

Packaging

We generate revenue by providing packaging solutions, ranging from rigid boxes to in-box print materials, for clients in consumer electronics, life sciences, cosmetics and consumer packaged goods industries.

Statements

We generate revenue by creating critical business communications, including customer billings, financial statements, healthcare communications and insurance documents. Our capabilities include design and composition, variable imaging, email, archival and digital mail interaction, as well as our innovative RRDigital solution set.

Direct Marketing

We generate revenue by providing audience segmentation, creative development, program testing, print production, postal optimization and performance analytics for large-scale personalized direct mail programs.

Labels

We generate revenue by producing custom labels for clients across multiple industries including warehouse and distribution, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and consumer packaging. We offer distribution and shipping labels, healthcare and durable goods labels, promotional labels and consumer product goods packaging labels.

Digital Print and Fulfillment

We generate revenue by providing in-store marketing materials, including signage and point-of-purchase materials, as well as custom marketing kits that require multiple types of marketing collateral. Under the trade name Motif^TM, we also create custom photobooks.

Supply Chain Management

We generate revenue by providing workflow design to assembly, configuration, kitting and fulfillment for clients in consumer electronics, telecommunications, life sciences, cosmetics, education and industrial industries.

Forms

We generate revenue by producing a variety of forms including invoices, order forms and business forms that support both the private and public sectors for clients in financial, government, retail, healthcare and business services industries.

Services

Our services revenue is recognized both at a point in time and over time. Our logistics revenue is primarily recognized over time as the performance obligation is completed. Due to the short transit period of logistics performance obligations, the timing of revenue recognition does not require significant judgment. Our business process outsourcing and digital and creative solutions revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, depending on the nature of the service which could be either recurring or project-based.

Logistics

We generate revenue by providing specialized transportation and distribution services using our third party logistics solutions. These services are comprised of freight services, including truckload, less-than-truckload, intermodal and international freight forwarding; international mail and parcel distribution; and courier services including same day and next day delivery. As discussed in Note 16, Dispositions, we sold our Print Logistics business on July 2, 2018. Print Logistics services included the distribution of retail and newsstand printed materials.

Business Process Outsourcing

We generate revenue by providing outsourcing services including creative services, research and analytics, financial management and other services for legal providers, insurance, telecommunications, utilities, retail and financial services companies.

Digital and Creative Solutions

We generate revenue by creating and managing content for delivery across multiple marketing communications channels including print and digital advertising, direct marketing and mail, packaging, sales collateral, in-store marketing and social media.

Variable Consideration

Certain clients may receive volume-based rebates or early payment discounts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be earned by our clients and reduce revenue accordingly. We do not expect significant changes to estimates of variable consideration. Given the nature of our products and the history of returns, product returns are not significant.

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about contract assets and liabilities from contracts with clients:

	Contract Assets		Contract Liabilities
	Short-Term		Short-Term		Long-Term
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	2.7	$	16.5	$	0.6
Balance at March 31, 2019		3.7		12.0		0.5

Contract liabilities primarily relate to client advances received prior to completion of performance obligations. Reductions in contract liabilities are a result of our completion of performance obligations.

Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $9.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we reclassified $2.7 million of contract assets to receivables as a result of the completion of the performance obligation and the right to the consideration becoming unconditional.
