CHICAGO, September 15, 2009 – Lincoln International, a leading global middle-market investment bank, today announced that Nashua Corporation (NASDAQ: NSHA) (“Nashua” or the “Company”) has been acquired by Cenveo, Inc. (NYSE: CVO) (“Cenveo”). The transaction was previously announced on May 7, 2009. The stock and cash transaction resulted in the Company’s shareholders receiving (i) $0.75 per share in cash and (ii) 1.265 shares of Cenveo common stock.
