“During the second quarter, our two largest segments, Pressure-Sensitive Materials and Retail Branding and Information Solutions, experienced a rapid decrease in unit volumes that drove results below expectations,” said Dean Scarborough, chairman, president and CEO. “We are taking action to reduce costs and increase productivity through this slowdown, and we expect to regain momentum when market conditions improve. We remain focused on maintaining a strong balance sheet and increasing return of cash to shareholders.”
