Management Commentary
“Given the challenging operating environment we experienced during the first half of the year, we are generally pleased with our Adjusted EBITDA performance for the quarter compared to the prior year, which included one-time benefits in connection with the closure of our coating operation. Our consolidated results for the second quarter of 2017 were adversely impacted by weakness in our direct mail business primarily driven by softness from our financial institution customers due to lower customer acquisition related mailings.

These results were partially offset by the positive effects of our 2017 Profitability Improvement Plan. To date, we are very pleased with the implementation progress and we are now on pace to exceed our original $50 million target that we announced earlier this year. During the second quarter 2017, we retired the remaining portion of our 7% Convertible Notes to complete our 2017 refinancing initiative. Also, as we previously announced, Cenveo will be transferring its stock exchange listing to the Nasdaq Global Market (“NASDAQ”) from The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Cenveo shares will begin trading as a Nasdaq-listed security on August 8, 2017, and will continue to trade under the symbol CVO,” said Robert G. Burton, Sr., Chairman and CEO of Cenveo.

Financial Results
Net sales in the second quarter of 2017 were $355.0 million compared to $410.1 million in the same period last year, a decline of 13.4%. The Company generated net sales of $736.9 million for the six months ended July 1, 2017, compared to $850.6 million for the same period last year, a decline of 13.4%. The sales decline was primarily driven by: (i) lower sales in the envelope segment, primarily due to lower demand in office product and wholesale envelope product lines primarily due to marketplace trends and lower direct mail demand primarily from our financial institution customers; (ii) lower sales volumes in the commercial print group and the publisher services group, primarily driven by lower customer demand and continued pricing pressures; and (iii) lower sales in the label segment, primarily due to the decision to exit our coating operation which was completed in the second quarter of 2016, and lower sales driven by product mix changes.
