NAPL develops blueprint for print business growth

Oct 2, 2008 11:00 AM

NAPL’s (Paramus, NJ) Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory Services team says the vast majority of the 35,000 domestic printing industry players are poised for consolidation for the foreseeable future.

“Despite the long-term consolidation that has occurred in the printing industry, there are still many companies available for both buying and selling, particularly as a means to augment internal growth,” explains John Hyde, vice president, senior consultant and head of NAPL’s Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory Services. “This is true for the leading companies that comprise the top 10 percent of our industry, that offer a strong value proposition and grow on average 12 percent annually, and are exploring opportunities to achieve even greater returns by aligning themselves with companies that offer expanded capabilities. It is also true for the 90 percent of the industry that is treading water or worse and needs to align with a stronger partner.”

NAPL offers Mergers & Acquisition Advisory Services as part of its Print Consulting Group. Hyde has been involved in printing industry mergers and acquisitions for 18 years, and he joined NAPL in 2004 to further develop the capability. “Founded on years of practical experience and unparalleled industry know-how, our Mergers & Acquisitions Consulting team brings objectivity to the table while helping our printing business owner- and manager-clients more critically evaluate their options, identify and communicate with potential candidates, formulate strategies, minimize their risk and execute the transaction,” he says.
