History

The company began in 1988 as Micro Device, dba "Ford Graphics", a $9 million, privately held Los Angeles-based reprographics company, acquired and managed by ARC's two founders, K. "Suri" Suriyakumar and S. "Mohan" Chandramohan. Following four acquisitions in California, the company was organized as "American Reprographics Company, L.L.C.", a California Limited Liability Corporation, in 1997. Acquired operations generally maintained their original brands in the marketplace to retain local recognition.[2]

Following additional acquisitions that expanded the company's geographical reach into major metropolitan markets in a majority of U.S. states, American Reprographics L.L.C. made its initial public offering in February of 2005 and was subsequently listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker symbol "ARP."

Concurrent with the consolidation of its local brands in January 2010, the company's ticker symbol was changed to "ARC". The Delaware corporation name was formally changed to "ARC Document Solutions" in 2012.[3]

gollark: I mean:- not telling anyone much about development- private testing for a week- source code is now closed- NDAs for some reason?- not really being very specific about feature changes even *after* they happenis all pretty secretive to me.
gollark: Reddit used to be open source, you know.
gollark: Yep!
gollark: Well, it is an example of secretiveness.
gollark: I'm not really sure how they plan to make investment actually something people will want to do without exploits/unintended feature combinations, and this new MemeEconomy seems to be being even more secretive.
