Lexmark Quarterly Business Roundup

Lexmark's commitment to driving shareholder value is reflected in its capital allocation framework of returning more than 50 percent of free cash flow, on average, to its shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, during continuing to invest to grow and strengthen its capabilities. Since March, the company has increased its quarterly dividend and as well announced three acquisitions that strengthen its business through a more advanced, comprehensive solutions portfolio.
