About ENNIS, INC.

Ennis, Inc. (ticker: EBF) is a U.S.-listed industrial company traded on the NYSE in the United States. The group operates in the business-to-business print and communications products market, with a long-standing focus on business forms, envelopes, labels, tags, presentation folders, checks, financial documents, security printing, integrated products, and related specialty printed materials. According to its latest annual filing, Ennis was organized in Texas in 1909 and describes itself as a leading trade printer: it manufactures a broad range of printed products that are sold primarily through an independent distributor network rather than directly to end users. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0000033002/000119312526213764/ebf-20260228.htm?utm_source=openai)) From a competitive standpoint, Ennis stands out for its breadth of product offering, nationwide footprint, and a decentralized manufacturing model built around multiple facilities and specialized production capabilities. Management states that the company is among the largest providers of business forms, pressure-seal forms, labels, tags, envelopes, and presentation folders to independent distributors in the United States. Its distribution channel includes independent print distributors, commercial printers, direct mail firms, fulfillment companies, payroll and accounts payable software providers, and advertising agencies. Ennis also sells to competitors when needed to satisfy end-customer demand, which reinforces its role as a supplier-of-record across the trade-print ecosystem.

Its product set extends beyond classic forms into printed and electronic media, integrated forms and labels, commercial printing, internal bank forms, plastic cards, secure and negotiable documents, specialty packaging, direct mail, promotional products, and other custom print solutions. The company emphasizes its ability to serve regional demand quickly through a network of facilities with different printing specialties.

In April 2025, Ennis announced the acquisition of Northeastern Envelope, an Old Forge, Pennsylvania-based envelope manufacturer, strengthening its envelope converting and printing presence in the northeastern U.S. Later in 2025, the company acquired CFC Print & Mail, a Grand Prairie, Texas-based business document printing and mailing company, expanding its commercial print and mailing capabilities. In its fiscal 2026 results released in April 2026, Ennis reported annual revenue of $392.4 million and diluted EPS of $1.66, while noting the contribution from recent acquisitions and their integration into the ERP environment. For investors, Ennis is best viewed as a niche industrial print consolidator with a predominantly domestic U.S. footprint, recurring trade-channel relationships, and an acquisition-led growth strategy.
