PR Newswire (US)
Company to Reiterate Outlook for Fourth Quarter of 2009 NAPERVILLE,
Ill., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- OfficeMax® Incorporated
(NYSE:OMX) a leader in office products and services, is scheduled
to present today at the Citi 6th Annual Small/Mid Cap Conference at
9:10 a.m. ET. As part of the presentation, the company plans to
reiterate its outlook for the fourth quarter of 2009. As previously
reported on October 29th, the company expects sales in the fourth
quarter of 2009 will decline on a year-over-year basis, but improve
sequentially compared to the third quarter. The company expects a
greater gross margin rate decline on a year-over-year basis in the
fourth quarter of 2009 than it experienced in the third quarter,
along with additional incentive compensation expense accruals
similar to the level accrued in the third quarter. As a result,
OfficeMax expects a fourth quarter of 2009 operating loss. A live
audio webcast of the presentation can be accessed today via the
Internet by visiting the OfficeMax website at

available online until December 21, 2009 and will be posted on the
"Presentations" page located within the "Investors" section of the
OfficeMax website. Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements
