FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Quad/Graphics Reports Second Quarter and Year-To-Date June 2012 Results

Company generates $60 million in Recurring Free Cash Flow and pays down
$42 million in debt during the quarter

Highlights:
Generates second quarter net sales of $934 million.
Achieves second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $112 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.0%, as compared to 11.9% in 2011.
Creates $60 million in second quarter Recurring Free Cash Flow and $167 million year-to-date.
Repays $42 million in debt during the quarter and $132 million year-to-date.
Completes integration of Worldcolor and confirms annual synergy savings of more than $275 million, exceeding original guidance of $225 million.

SUSSEX, WI, August 7, 2012 — Quad/Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: QUAD) (“Quad/Graphics” or the “Company”) today reported results for its second quarter and year-to-date ending June 30, 2012. For full financial results, please see the accompanying information.

“We are pleased with the continued progress we have made to strengthen our balance sheet, maintain strong credit metrics and generate significant cash flow during a quarter traditionally impacted by lower seasonal volumes,” said Joel Quadracci, Quad/Graphics Chairman, President & CEO. “This past July marked the two-year anniversary of the Worldcolor acquisition and, with the closing of the second quarter, we also mark the completion of a successful integration process. In the end, we expect to exceed our original synergy guidance by more than 20%, achieving over $275 million of annual savings. Our one-time cost to achieve these synergies will be less than $225 million, well within the expected range of $195 million to $240 million, resulting in a ratio of approximately 80 cents of cost for every dollar of synergy. This represents a significant achievement for the Company and a proud moment for all employees who worked hard to merge these two leading companies together during a time of significant industry transformation and economic challenge.”

Net sales for the second quarter were $934 million versus $977 million for the same period in 2011. Second quarter 2012 Adjusted EBITDA was $112 million compared to $116 million for the same period in 2011, and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 12.0% as compared to 11.9% in 2011. The quarterly results reflect expected volume and pricing pressures. Offsetting these impacts were incremental synergy savings totaling $21 million and lower selling, general and administrative costs.

“We are proud of the progress we continue to make in strengthening our balance sheet through the repayment of $42 million in debt during the quarter, and $132 million in the first half of 2012,” said John Fowler, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer. “Our leverage ratio of 2.2x remains in our targeted range of 2.0x to 2.5x and we continue to generate significant Recurring Free Cash Flow to support our disciplined capital deployment strategy. Our quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share will be payable on September 21, 2012, to shareholders of record as of September 10, 2012.”

For the first six months of 2012, net sales were $1.92 billion versus net sales of $2.0 billion for the same period in 2011, reflecting expected volume and price pressures combined with impacts from continued economic uncertainty and secular pressures. Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA was $238 million versus $258 million in 2011, reflecting lower volumes partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative costs. Recurring Free Cash Flow was $167 million for the first six months of 2012 compared to $102 million in the first six months of 2011, continuing a track record of solid cash flow generation.

These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the objectives, goals, strategies, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, prospects, projections and outlook of Quad/Graphics, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “foresee,” “believe” or “continue” or the negatives of these terms, variations on them and other similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the control of the Company. These risks, uncertainties and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. Among risks, uncertainties and other factors that may impact Quad/Graphics are those described in Item 1A of the Company's most recent Form 10-K and the following: the impact of significant overcapacity in the highly competitive commercial printing industry, which creates downward pricing pressure and fluctuating demand for printing services; the potential inability of the Company to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency rapidly enough to meet market conditions; the impact of electronic media and similar technological changes; the impact of changing future economic conditions; the potential failure to renew long-term contracts with customers, the renewal of those contracts under different terms, or customer nonperformance in accordance with the terms and for the duration of long-term contracts; significant capital expenditures may be needed to maintain the Company's platform and processes and to remain technologically and economically competitive; the impact of fluctuations in costs (including labor-related costs, energy costs, freight rates and raw materials) and the impact of fluctuations in the availability of raw materials; the impact of regulatory matters and legislative developments or changes in laws, including changes in environmental and privacy laws and postal rates, regulations and services; the impact on Quad/Graphics class A common shareholders of a limited active market for Quad/Graphics common stock and the inability to independently elect directors or control decisions due to the class B common stock voting rights; an other than temporary decline in operating results and enterprise value that could lead to non-cash impairment

charges due to the impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, which, in turn, could lead to the Company being in non-compliance with certain of its debt facility covenants; the liabilities of Worldcolor with respect to pension and postretirement benefits could grow in the future and create additional costs; restrictions imposed by various covenants in the Company's debt facilities may affect the Company's ability to operate its business; failure to successfully integrate the operations of Quad/Graphics and Worldcolor; risks associated with the Company's operations outside of the United States; and the inability to retain and attract additional, key employees, or the adverse effects of any strikes or other labor protests.

Quad/Graphics cautions that the foregoing list of risks, uncertainties and other factors is not exhaustive and you should carefully consider the other factors detailed from time to time in Quad/Graphics' filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other uncertainties and potential events when reviewing the Company's forward-looking statements.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, Quad/Graphics undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
