The M or the A in Your Future
Can You Afford Not To?
It's no secret that certain segments of the printing industry continue to consolidate and that more shrinkage is on the way. Additionally, there are significant opportunities to grow by acquisition in other segments of the printing industry and in virtually all segments of packaging. Given these realities, having a proactive M&A plan is a matter of necessity for every company. If you are in a declining market, now is the time to prepare for leaving it on terms favorable to you. If your firm is fortunate enough to be on an upward trajectory in a high-value market, your outlook for acquiring strategically or selling at a significant profit is better than it has been in a long time.
