Transcontinental Inc. (TSX: TCL.A TCL.B) announces its results for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, which ended January 28, 2024.

“We had a solid first quarter despite persistently challenging market conditions,” said Thomas Morin, President and Chief Executive Officer of TC Transcontinental. “This performance is largely attributable to cost reductions in line with our priorities and the profitability and financial position improvement program announced in December.

“The Packaging Sector had an excellent start with a 29.6% growth in adjusted operating earnings before depreciation and amortization for the quarter compared to last year, as the initiatives implemented to reduce our costs and a more favourable product mix more than offset the softer demand across the market. While there are still uncertainties surrounding short-term demand, we are satisfied with the progress made with the deployment of new equipment related to our strategic investments and the market interest in that respect.

“In our Printing Sector, our cost reduction initiatives allowed us to mitigate the persistent challenges facing our book printing activities. We are encouraged by the opportunities in our retail related services, in particular the continued roll-out of raddar™ as well as our in-store marketing activities.

Maverick Concepts Invests in Future Growth with 2nd VUTEk FabriVU Printer and EFI ERP Workflow

Maverick Concepts, a creative design and fabrication business serving top retailers and major consumer packaged goods companies, has completed new investments to drive new opportunities. The Garland, Texas-based company purchased two advanced print technology solutions from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. – an EFI™ VUTEk® FabriVU® 340i dye-sublimation printer and EFI Midmarket Print Suite MIS/ERP workflow software. The new printer – Maverick’s second EFI VUTEk FabriVU 340i model – delivers high efficiency on premium soft-signage textile graphics, with speeds up to 5,381 square feet per hour. The 133-inch wide printer is also the only production-level solution in its class that offers direct-to-fabric production and in-line sublimation without the need for a separate calendar/heat press. As a result, Maverick Concepts’ direct-to-textile prints are immediately ready for finishing and shipping after printing. VUTEk FabriVU printers – which are also available in 70- and 205-inch widths – use aqueous dye-sublimation inks and give Maverick Concepts more firepower to provide its brand clients outstanding quality with a 2,400 dots per inch (dpi) maximum resolution.
