For Immediate Release
ADP TO ACQUIRE CUNNINGHAM GRAPHICS
ROSELAND, NJ, May 3, 2000 -- Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (NYSE:AUD), has
entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Cunningham Graphics
International, Inc. (NASD:CGII) (Cunningham) for $22 per share in cash, Arthur
F. Weinbach, chairman and chief executive officer announced today.
Cunningham, with annual revenues exceeding $160 million, is a leading
provider of time-sensitive printing to the financial services industry,
specializing in printing and distribution of complex research reports.
Commenting on the transaction, Mr. Weinbach said, "Cunningham's
services are a natural extension of the print and distribution services of our
Brokerage Services Investor Communications business. With the acquisition we
will be better able to (1) offer coordinated, one-stop shopping to meet a broad
array of financial industry investor communication needs, and (2) increase our
ability to offer both print and electronic distribution of critical investor
documents."
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and various
regulatory approvals. ADP expects to commence a tender offer to purchase all of
Cunningham's common shares within the next seven business days. Certain
directors and officers of Cunningham, holding in the aggregate approximately 45%
of the outstanding common shares, have agreed to tender their common shares
pursuant to ADP's offer.
ADP, with over $5 billion in revenue and more than 450,000 clients, is
one of the largest independent computing services firms in the world.
