Summary

Interest in mergers and acquisitions in the printing and packaging industries has been strong this year despite the uncertainty around tariffs and the impact they could have on raw material and equipment pricing. Both strategic and financial buyers are still attracted to the industry and have money to spend.

During this seminar, we will discuss:

  • A review of the macro and microeconomic conditions in 2025, and what to expect in 2026 and beyond
  • Who the buyers and sellers have typically been this year and what New Direction Partners anticipates in 2026.
  • How tax changes might impact the M&A market – positively or negatively
  • What type of companies are most attractive to strategic and/or financial buyers
  • What might change in 2026 and how that could potentially impact industry M&A activity
