Quad/Graphics reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $587 million, roughly flat from $588 million a year earlier, while GAAP net earnings fell to $6 million from $10 million, mainly due to higher restructuring, impairment and transaction-related charges. The company narrowed its full-year Adjusted EBITDA range to $185 million to $195 million and improved its Adjusted Annual Net Sales Change range to a 1% to 3% decline from a 1% to 5% decline, which matters to shareholders because it signals a smaller expected sales drop, though profit guidance is narrower and its midpoint is lower than before.
