The software solutions net sales grew 7.3% Y/Y to $73.7 million, and Tech-enabled services net sales climbed by 7.4% Y/Y to $73.6 million. Print and distribution net sales declined by 4.3% Y/Y to $29.2 million.

CEO Daniel N. Leib said, “Heading into 2024, we look forward to opportunities created by new regulations such as Tailored Shareholder Reports and stand ready to assist our clients in complying with future regulatory changes.”
The TSR rule went into effect on January 24, 2023, and compliance is required by July 24, 2024. As a result of this regulatory change, Donnelley Financial expects an annual net sales increase of $20 million to $25 million in 2025, with approximately a half-year impact in 2024.
Due to increased investment levels in 2024 to support software product development and sales and marketing initiatives, the company expects the TSR rule to be slightly dilutive to consolidated net earnings and Adjusted EBITDA in 2024 and accretive to consolidated net earnings and Adjusted EBITDA in 2025.
