Quad/Graphics Details Strategic Transformation and 2028 Growth Projections
QUAD
Revenue Acceleration/Inflection
New Projects/Investments
Dividends
  • Quad/Graphics is transforming from a core commercial printer to a marketing experience (MX) company, with a projected revenue growth inflection point in 2028 after a 4% revenue decline in 2024 (excluding divestitures). This strategic shift focuses on higher-margin integrated solutions and targeted print offerings.
  • The company leverages its unique MX Intelligence data stack, which has touched 92% of U.S. households for over five decades, to drive effective marketing campaign targeting. A new initiative, In-Store Connect by Quad, is building a retail media network that has shown early success with significant sales lifts for consumer packaged goods (CPGs).
  • Financially, Quad has generated almost $800 million in cash through 2024 and substantially reduced its debt from over $1 billion to a projected $312 million by year-end, achieving a 1.6 times leverage ratio. The company has also resumed and increased its dividend to $0.075 per quarter per share, offering over a 5% yield.
  • Long-term financial goals for 2028 include an adjusted EBITDA margin of 9.4% (up from approximately 8%) and a free cash flow conversion rate of 35% (up from 28%). Management believes that achieving revenue growth in 2028 will help unlock a higher valuation multiple, as the market currently values it as a traditional printer (3-4x EBITDA) rather than an MX company (7-8x EBITDA for agencies).
