DFIN’s Earnings Report Spotlights Software Transformation
Donnelley Financial Solutions’ 4Q22 and FY22 earnings, released this week, showcase our progress in becoming a software-centric company. We are on track to meet our goal of deriving 55% to 60% of total sales from software by 2026.
For the full year, we achieved record software solutions net sales of $279.6 million. Software solutions net sales were nearly 34% of our full-year net sales, up from 27% in 2021 and just 14% in 2016, the year we were spun off from our parent company. Amazing progress.
