Mark Hahn Launches New Consulting Firm For Printers and Packagers

MOUNTAIN LAKES, NJ—January 22, 2015—Mark Hahn has formed Graphic Arts Advisors LLC headquartered here with an additional office in Dallas.

Graphic Arts Advisors LLC is a boutique strategic financial advisory and consulting firm focused exclusively on the printing, packaging and related industries. The firm provides financial advisory services to clients with both M&A and capital transactional needs of up to $100 million and consulting services related to valuations, corporate restructuring and turnarounds, and strategic shareholder advisory services. In establishing GAA, Hahn noted, "Now more than ever and especially in the dynamic and ever changing marketplace in which companies in the graphic arts and related industries now operate, they need a trusted financial advisory firm working with them and on their behalf that is exclusively focused on their industry in order to build or monetize shareholder value."

Prior to founding GAA, Hahn served as senior vice president of NAPL’s Business Advisory Group with primary responsibility for the group’s M&A practice. Before joining NAPL, he held several senior management positions at a diversified graphic services company, most recently as CFO/COO and corporate development officer.

Hahn is regularly quoted and published in several printing industry trade and management journals; and through his monthly blog, "The Target Report," he provides the printing, packaging and related industries with a high level overview of industry trends and a central source of information where owners, investors, lenders and other professionals can view information about the latest mergers, acquisitions and restructuring in the printing industry, broadly defined.
