The company’s net earnings reached $36.4 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, compared to $36.1 million, or $1.28 per share, in the second quarter of 2025. This growth was largely supported by a 7.8% surge in software solutions revenue, which hit $99.4 million and now accounts for 44.3% of the company's total sales mix. The performance of ActiveDisclosure, a key component of the firm's compliance offerings, was a primary driver, posting a 29% increase.

Adjusted EBITDA rose to $82.3 million, marking a 7.9% improvement year-over-year, while the adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by approximately 170 basis points to 36.7%. CEO Daniel N. Leib attributed these results to disciplined cost management and a shift toward more recurring revenue streams, even as the company navigated a decline in print and distribution volume. Alongside the financial results, the company announced the appointment of Ken Napolitano as Chief Revenue Officer to oversee the firm's ongoing sales transformation strategy. As of June 30, 2026, DFIN held a gross leverage ratio of 0.8x and maintained $125.4 million remaining on its current share repurchase authorization.
