Third quarter net sales were $935 million, down $14 million, or 1.5%, from the third quarter of 2016.

The decrease in organic net sales was due to lower volume and price declines in both the Print and Office Products segments. Third quarter 2017 net loss was $3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $38 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2016.
