Lexmark serves both the distributed printing and electronic content management markets. Lexmark management believes the total market opportunity of both of these markets in 2010 was approximately $95 billion. Lexmark management believes that the total distributed printing market opportunity was approximately $90 billion in 2010, including printing hardware, supplies and related services. This opportunity includes printers and multifunction devices as well as a declining base of copiers and fax machines that are increasingly being integrated into multifunction devices. Based on industry information, Lexmark management believes that the market grew in 2010 due to a rebound from the downturn in 2009. The distributed printing industry is expected to experience low to mid single digit annual revenue growth rates over the next two years, assuming the global economic recovery continues, with the highest growth likely to be attributable to multifunction products (MFPs), color lasers, business inkjets and stronger emerging market demand. In addition, managed print services and solutions are expected to experience double digit annual revenue growth rates over the next two years. Based on industry analyst estimates, Lexmark management believes that the ECM market, including document process automation software and services, is currently projected to grow 10% to 12% annually over the next few years and in 2010 had a market size of approximately $5 billion, including related services. However, management believes the total addressable market is significantly larger due to relatively low penetration of ECM products worldwide.
