Disclosure Information

As previously disclosed, on April 13, 2020, LSC Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101-1532 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”), and on September 15, 2020, the Debtors and certain other non-Debtor subsidiaries of the Company entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with ACR III Libra Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and, solely with respect to Section 9.13 of the Purchase Agreement, Atlas Capital Resources III LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and Atlas Capital Resources (P) III LP, a Delaware limited partnership.

To facilitate discussions concerning the sale process, the Company provided certain financial and other information to certain holders of the senior secured term loan B facility under the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2016, as amended, and holders of senior notes under the Company’s Indenture, dated as of September 30, 2016, as amended (the “Junior Creditors”), pursuant to non-disclosure agreements with such Junior Creditors (the “NDAs”). Pursuant to the NDAs, the Company agreed to disclose publicly any material non-public information disclosed to such Junior Creditors after a specified period or upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the NDAs. The information included in this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1, including preliminary projections regarding the sources and uses of the Final Cash Consideration (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Disclosure Information”), is being furnished to satisfy the Company’s public disclosure obligations under the NDAs.

Management of the Company prepared the projections from certain internal financial projections based on expectations, beliefs, opinions, and assumptions of the Company’s management that the Company’s management believed were reasonable at the time they were made. Such expectations, beliefs, opinions, and assumptions may not be appropriate as of the date hereof in light of developments in the Company’s business and the broader markets it serves. The projections were not prepared with a view towards public disclosure and were not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or any published guidelines for preparation and presentation of “prospective financial information.” The inclusion of the projections in this Form 8-K should not be regarded as an indication that the Company or any other person considered, or now considers, this information to be predictive of actual future results, and does not constitute an admission or representation by any person that such information is material, or that the expectations, beliefs, opinions, and assumptions that underlie such projections remain the same as of the date of this Form 8-K, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information.

Neither the independent auditor of the Company nor any other independent accountant has examined, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information contained in this Form 8-K. Accordingly, none has expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability and none assumes any responsibility for the prospective financial information. Except as required by law, the Company does not currently intend to update or revise publicly any of the information contained or incorporated herein to reflect circumstances or other events occurring after the date the financial projections were prepared or to reflect the occurrence of future events. These considerations should be taken into account in reviewing the financial projections, which were prepared as of an earlier date. For additional information on factors that may cause actual future financial results to vary materially from the information presented herein, see the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Press Release

On September 30, 2020, the Company issued a press release announcing the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement (the “Transactions”). A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

The information contained in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, nor will such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as may be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
