Bowne & Co (BNE) 8-K Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 gives effect to the September 8, 2006 sale of DecisionQuest^®, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bowne & Co., Inc. (the “Company”), to key employees of DecisionQuest, as if the sale had occurred on June 30, 2006. The total sale price for the purpose of this unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 was approximately $9.8 million, consisting of $7.0 million in cash and a promissory note for $2.9 million, which is valued at $2.8 million and is payable on September 11, 2010 and bears interest at 4.92%, which is to be paid quarterly. The following unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 gives effect to the sale of DecisionQuest as if the sale had occurred on January 1, 2005. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is not presented since the operations of DecisionQuest were previously reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2006 filed on August 9, 2006.

If the sale had occurred on June 30, 2006, the total sale price of approximately $9.8 million less estimated sale expenses of $0.4 million would have resulted in a net loss of approximately $5.7 million, after an income tax benefit of approximately $2.9 million.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The actual amounts could differ from these estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial information is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would be achieved had the sale been consummated on the dates indicated and should not be construed as representative of future results of operations or financial position. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma results should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2006.
