Target Report Analysis: A Look at Last Year's Transactions and Projections for 2016

The Target Report has been chronicling merger, acquisition, and restructuring activity in the printing, packaging and related industries since 2011. Each month, we publish the results of our research and analysis of the macro-trends, often focusing on a particular segment. In January, we look back at the entire year and humbly offer our general projections about the coming year.

In the absence of having our own crystal ball, we attempt to bring some science to the art of making projections.
