Consolidated Graphics Sees Return to Sales Growth

HOUSTON—Aug. 4, 2010—Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: CGX) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Revenue for the quarter was $236.7 million, a 4.8% increase compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was due to 2.3% growth in same-store sales combined with the impact of higher election-related sales and an acquisition.

Joe R. Davis, Chairman and CEO, commented, "After 12 quarters of year-over-year declines, we were pleased to achieve same-store sales growth this past quarter. While there has been some improvement in the economy, we continue to see weakness in demand from many of our customers, and our performance this quarter is a testament to the efforts we have made to develop customized solutions that meet our customers' most critical needs. We also continue to improve our capabilities by investing in people and technology, including in our CGXSolutions offerings. These sophisticated capabilities, combined with our cost containment efforts, and higher sales levels, allowed us to significantly improve our operating income and margins over last year."
