FINAL LABL Transaction Customer Letter

 

 

Dear [INSERT STANDARD GREETING],

I am writing to share exciting news about Multi-Color Corporation. We are pleased to announce that we have entered into a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by an affiliate of Platinum Equity, a leading private equity firm. A copy of the press release we issued can be found here [LINK].

We believe this transaction represents a winning proposition for all stakeholders. We look forward to joining forces with Platinum Equity, who knows our industry well and has tremendous respect for Multi-Color Corporation, our talented and dedicated team, and our innovative portfolio of labeling technologies. By combining Multi-Color Corporation’s capabilities and established industry position with Platinum Equity’s financial resources, operational expertise and portfolio company WS Packaging Group, we are confident our company will be even better positioned to enhance the value we can deliver to you, our customers.

All of us remain focused on executing our business objectives and providing you with the same high-quality service and premium label solutions you have come to expect from us. We expect the transaction to be completed by Q3 of calendar year 2019. Until then, Multi-Color Corporation will continue to operate as a public company. Today’s announcement should have no impact on our day-to-day operations. There will be no changes to your contract or services agreement as a result of this transaction and your contacts at Multi-Color Corporation will stay the same. In short, it remains business as usual.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your usual contact.

Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this next chapter for our company.

Sincerely,

[NAME]
