PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

We are a technology and manufacturing-driven company that aggregates, via the Internet, large volumes of individually small, customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, apparel and similar products. We produce those orders in highly automated, capital and technology intensive production facilities in a manner that we believe makes our production techniques significantly more competitive than those of traditional suppliers. We bring our products to market via various brands that deliver marketing products and services to the small business, and home and family markets. These brands include Vistaprint, our leading global brand for micro business marketing products and services, as well as several brands that we have acquired that serve the needs of various market segments, including resellers, small and medium businesses with differentiated service needs, and consumers purchasing products for personal use.

Through innovative technology, we offer our customers a broad selection of customized products and services, low pricing and personalized customer service. While we offer a broad selection of designs and formats, we seek to reduce manufacturing complexity and costs by using limited characteristics that can be reconfigured and combined. This reduces our costs versus comparable customized products produced using traditional methods. This approach has allowed us to successfully penetrate the large, fragmented and geographically dispersed micro business and home and family markets. As we penetrate deeper into other markets, we expect to increase the number of product characteristics that can be reconfigured and combined.

We have standardized, automated and integrated the design and production process, from design conceptualization to product shipment and service delivery. On the Vistaprint websites, customers typically use our proprietary online design software to easily create and order full-color, personalized, professional-looking physical and digital marketing products and services, without any prior design training or experience. Customers have access to extensive graphic designs, design templates, photographs and illustrations as well as logo design services and content suggestions. We are also able to automatically match and adapt graphic content from one product format to another, which allows us to generate and display additional products and services as part of the ordering process. For photo products used by home and family customers, our Albumprinter subsidiary also provides self-service design software for page creation and layout functions. In contrast, through our People & Print Group and Pixartprinting websites, we focus on the upload of production-ready graphic files that were created in desktop publishing files.

Our proprietary Internet-based order processing systems receive and store tens of thousands of individual orders on a daily basis and, using complex algorithms, organize these orders for efficient production and delivery to our customers. Through our production technologies and highly automated manufacturing facilities, we are able to significantly reduce the costs and inefficiencies associated with traditional production and can provide customized finished products in as little as 24 hours from design to delivery. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, excluding our People & Print Group and Pixartprinting acquisitions, our customers placed approximately 30.5 million orders.

Market and Industry Background

The Marketplace for Micro Business Marketing Products and Services

The primary market for our Vistaprint brand is the micro business market, generally businesses or organizations with fewer than 10 employees and usually 2 or fewer. We believe that there are approximately 60 million businesses with fewer than 10 employees in the United States, Canada, and the European Union and that these micro businesses undergo frequent changes with many forming and dissolving each year, creating a large market for business identity products and services in addition to marketing products and services. We also believe that, in response to the growth of the Internet and the emergence of digital production technologies, many micro businesses are shifting from traditional suppliers of customized marketing products and media toward online alternatives.

In the past, a business seeking customized marketing products and services could either hire a designer to develop and coordinate the production of marketing materials or produce printed materials themselves using desktop software and an inkjet or laser printer. These choices historically prohibited a majority of small businesses from presenting a professional image through marketing material as the former is seen by many as too expensive

or time consuming and the latter too amateurish for business purposes. A graphic designer can produce a professionally coordinated portfolio of marketing products and services, but this is a significantly more costly and time-consuming alternative, whereas a traditional self-service model typically produces less sophisticated and lower quality output. We believe that neither alternative satisfies the needs of most micro businesses, which typically lack the resources or skills to generate satisfactory results using either approach. As a result, we believe the micro business market has been underserved historically.

Through customer research, we have analyzed the market opportunity related to micro businesses with fewer than 10 employees into three conceptual market segments:

•

Price Primary Market Segment: This part of the market has the largest number of small businesses but the lowest per-customer annual spend. These businesses choose a customized product primarily based on the price of the product offered, and are often incentivized to purchase through a promotional discounted direct marketing approach and cross-selling of products. Vistaprint has historically gained the most traction in this segment, and we believe our biggest competition in this space is either non-consumption or printing from a desktop or photocopier. It remains an important part of our business as we are able to aggregate millions of orders from customers in this segment, enabling scale advantages in our business.

•

Higher Expectations Market Segment: This part of the market is made up of fewer small businesses than the Price Primary segment, but with higher per-customer annual spend. We believe the segment is highly fragmented in terms of suppliers and several times the total revenue opportunity of the Price Primary market segment, as these customers typically purchase a broader spectrum of marketing and promotional products from multiple vendors. These customers have more sophisticated marketing needs and choose their marketing providers not solely on price, but on a blend of value, supplier reputation, product quality and selection, customer service and overall experience. We believe this segment represents the most significant growth opportunity for our Vistaprint brand over the long term.

•

Locally Focused Market Segment: We believe the third market segment is the largest and most fragmented among the micro businesses. The customers in this segment often choose to work with local graphic designers, agencies, resellers and local, offline print shops to meet their marketing needs as their primary purchase consideration is personal service. Many of these graphic designers and resellers, or the customers themselves, have a level of graphic design sophistication that enables these customers to create and manipulate images in professional publishing and design programs, rather than rely on design templates. They also typically require a broader selection of specifications. Our Vistaprint brand serves very few of these customers in comparison with the Price Primary and Higher Expectations market segments. However, we are now serving this segment through brands that are managed by our Pixartprinting and People & Print Group subsidiaries.

Online commerce provides significant advantages and opportunities to micro business customers seeking customized marketing products and services at affordable prices. These customers do not typically need the large quantities that are traditionally required to achieve low per-unit pricing and do not maintain dedicated procurement departments to negotiate pricing effectively. We believe that the highly fragmented, geographically dispersed nature of the micro business market is ideally suited for Internet-based procurement, as the Internet provides a standardized interface through web browsers, availability to interact and transact seven days a week, 24 hours per day, the ability to offer a wide selection of products and services, and the opportunity to efficiently aggregate individual orders into larger and more efficient production units.

In addition to physical marketing materials and promotional items, micro businesses are also increasingly seeking to establish an online marketing presence, via websites, email marketing, and social media. While adoption of digital marketing approaches has been slower among micro businesses than in large companies, it is a growing component of marketing spend for micro businesses. We believe that a coordinated portfolio of marketing products and services, including digital marketing services, can help micro businesses appear more competent and professional, which can enhance their marketing efforts, customer relationships and prospects for success.

The Marketplace for Customized Products and Services for the Home and Family

While the market focus of our Vistaprint brand is primarily on micro business marketing products and services, many of our product formats are also purchased by consumers seeking customized announcements, greeting cards, calendars, stationery, apparel, personalized gifts, photo books and related photo products. In the past, many such products were supplied by an industry comprising print manufacturing wholesalers and local

retailers, such as stationery stores. Compared with today’s Internet-based alternatives, traditional offerings were relatively limited, prices were significantly higher, and delivery often required long lead times. Graphic designs were limited and it was rarely possible to incorporate full color photography into the design. We serve the home and family market through the Vistaprint brand, as well as through our Albumprinter business unit, which in turn operates through the Albelli, Bonusprint, Allfoto, Onskefoto, and FotoKnudsen brands.

Customer Value, Design and Purchase Experience

As of June 30, 2014, we had over 30 localized websites serving countries in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. We recognize that our customers have differing needs, skills, and expertise, and we offer a corresponding range of products, price points and customer service options. Our websites offer a full complement of tools and features allowing customers to create a product design or upload their own complete design, and place an order on a completely self-service basis.

Low Prices and Small Quantities

We believe a key reason that our customers try our various brands and stay with us is our ability to sell custom designed and manufactured products and services in low quantities (including as low as a single unit). At the same time, our high-volume, highly automated production facilities produce these low quantity orders at low cost, allowing us to invest in the significant marketing expense required to attract large numbers of customers, yet still sell at low prices. Our manufacturing and supply chain facilities operate in a controlled environment as our quality assurance systems are designed to ensure that we consistently deliver quality products on time through a variety of principles of world-class manufacturing, such as Lean and Kaizen™.

Designing Online

When a product type has been selected by a customer visiting the Vistaprint brand website, the customer can initiate the design process by using our predefined industry styles and theme categories or by uploading the customer's own design. When the customer chooses a particular template for personalization, our user-friendly, browser-based application enables the customer to quickly and easily perform a wide range of design and editing functions on the selected design. In many cases, once customers choose a pre-designed template or upload their own content for a product, they can instantly see what their design looks like on a wide array of other products and related services.

Customer Support Experience

Customers who need help with their design or ordering process are able to reach our customer service agents via phone, email, and chat. Our agents are located in eight customer service facilities around the world, servicing customers in multiple languages. The agent support is augmented by a robust set of online tools and self-help options.

Our Competitive Advantage

We have invested significantly in three core areas to seek to build a strong advantage versus traditional competitors:


•	Proprietary technology


•	Mass customization


•	Direct marketing expertise

Our Competitive Advantage: Proprietary Technology

We rely on our advanced proprietary technology to market to, attract and retain our customers, enable customers to create graphic designs and place orders on our websites, and aggregate and produce multiple orders from all over the world. This technology includes:

Design and Document Creation Technologies

Our design creation technologies, primarily deployed through our Vistaprint-branded websites, enable customers, by themselves or together with the assistance of our design support staff, to design and create high quality marketing materials from their homes or offices.

•

Our document model architecture and technology employs Internet-compatible data structures to define, process and store product designs as a set of separately searchable, combinable and modifiable component elements and allows us to generate customized initial and later matching product design options automatically in real time. This browser-based software provides immediate client-side editing capabilities plus extensive system scalability. A wide variety of layouts, color schemes and fonts are provided and an extensive selection of high quality photographs and illustrations are currently available for use by customers in product design. Customers can also upload their own images and logos for incorporation into their product designs.

•

Our dynamic image preview technology allows customers to see their designs in on-screen simulations of real-world settings in real time in order to gain an appreciation for what the finished product will look like. The above image shows such a dynamically generated business card that, although it has not yet been produced, appears as if it is part of a photograph or video in which it is being held by a human hand.


•	Our auto-matching design software algorithmically generates customized product designs in real time based on key-word searches, enabling professional-looking graphic layouts to be easily and quickly created by customers without the need for graphic arts training.

Pre-Press and Print Production Technologies

Across our multiple brands, our pre-production and production technologies efficiently process and aggregate customer orders, prepare orders for high-quality production and manage production, addressing and shipment of these orders. These technologies allow us to efficiently store, process and aggregate tens of thousands of Internet orders every day. Automated workflows help lower production cost but still ensure on-time delivery to our customers.

Cross-selling and Content Management Technologies

On our Vistaprint branded websites, we combine the above-discussed proprietary document creation technologies with proprietary cross-selling technologies to automatically generate and display additional products incorporating the customer’s initial design, facilitating the cross-sale of related products and services. In addition, through a global content management system, we ensure that changes and updates to our site experience are reflected across our network of localized Vistaprint websites in multiple languages and currencies. Our Vistaprint software automatically generates and displays one or more additional customized product designs based upon a customer’s existing design.

Technology Development

We intend to continue developing and enhancing our proprietary and licensed software programs and our manufacturing processes. We have designed our website technologies and infrastructure to scale to accommodate future geographic expansion and growth in the number of customer visits, orders, and product and service offerings. This Internet-based architecture makes our applications highly scalable and offers our customers fast system responsiveness. In addition, our production technologies for aggregating jobs in preparation for manufacturing are designed to readily scale as we grow. We have an engineering and research and development center in Winterthur, Switzerland that is constantly seeking to strengthen our manufacturing and supply chain capabilities through engineering disciplines such as automation, manufacturing, facilities and new product design, materials science, process control and color control. We have software engineering teams located in multiple sites including Massachusetts and Maryland in the United States, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy. Our technology and development expenses were approximately $176 million (14% of total revenues), $165 million (14% of total revenues) and $129 million (13% of total revenues) in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Intellectual Property

We seek to protect our proprietary rights through a combination of patents, copyrights, trade secrets, and trademarks and contractual restrictions, such as confidentiality agreements and proprietary rights agreements. We

enter into confidentiality and proprietary rights agreements with our employees, consultants and business partners, and control access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information.

We currently hold 210 issued patents worldwide, and we continue to file new patent applications around the world. Subject to our continued payment of required patent maintenance fees, our currently issued patents will expire between December 2017 and April 2032. We hold trademark registrations for the Vistaprint trademark in 38 jurisdictions, including registrations in our major markets in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. We also hold trademarks for other brands through which we do business in jurisdictions worldwide.

Our Competitive Advantage: Mass Customization

We define "mass customization" as producing, with the reliability, quality and affordability of mass production, small individual orders where each and every one embodies the personal relevance inherent to customized physical products.

Our high-volume, standardized, scalable mass customization processes are driven by sophisticated proprietary software. Our technologies are designed to readily scale as the number of orders received per day increases. In particular, the more individual jobs we receive in a time period, the more efficiently aggregations, or gangs, of similar jobs can be assembled and moved to the printing system, thereby maximizing the efficient use of the production capacity and increasing overall system throughput. We believe that our strategy of seeking to automate and systematize our service and production systems enables us to reach and serve small-scale customers more effectively than our competitors.

With the improvements we have made in automating the design and production process and with the global scale of our production facilities, located in Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, Italy, and India, we can produce and ship an order the same day we receive it, which results in minimal inventory levels and reduced working capital requirements. In most of our manufacturing facilities, technology facilitates the production of complementary customized products in a highly synchronized manner, allowing us to produce and deliver multi-part orders quickly and efficiently.

As orders are received, we automatically route production jobs to the type and location of the production system that is most appropriate and cost efficient for the type of product ordered. Our proprietary software and sophisticated automation solutions combined with software from our suppliers allow us to integrate and automate the manufacturing process from pre-production through fulfillment. Requiring as little as 13 seconds of pre-press, printing, cutting and boxing labor for a typical order of 250 business cards, versus an hour or more for traditional printers, our manufacturing processes enable us to print high quality customized orders using a fraction of the labor of typical traditional printers. Our quality assurance systems are designed to ensure that we consistently deliver quality products on time through a variety of principles of world-class manufacturing, such as Lean and Kaizen™.

Supply Chain Management

We are focused on achieving the lowest total cost in our strategic sourcing efforts by concentrating on quality, logistics, technology and cost. Our efforts include the procurement of high quality materials and equipment that meet our strict specifications at a low total cost across a growing number of manufacturing locations. Additionally, we work to develop and implement logistics, warehousing, and outbound shipping strategies to provide a balance of low-cost material availability while limiting our inventory exposure. We believe investing in a strategic supply chain management capability that is tightly integrated with our other manufacturing teams helps us benefit from our large scale and improve efficiency and reduce costs.

Our Competitive Advantage: Direct Marketing Expertise

We have developed expertise in direct marketing to target new customers across various channels and to drive more traffic to our websites, as well as to retain existing customers. Our marketing employees execute focused marketing strategies to each region but leverage our global organization in terms of expertise, knowledge sharing, and marketing best practices.

To acquire new customers, we employ sophisticated direct marketing approaches leveraging digital media and technologies as well as traditional media such as press releases, direct mail, broadcast, trade shows and trade magazines, offline advertising, and word of mouth by our customers. We have developed tools and techniques for

measuring the efficiency of each marketing partner and product or service placement. In addition, our testing engines allow us to run product, service, merchandising or site experience tests on our websites, reducing the time to take an idea from concept to full deployment and allowing us to quickly identify and roll out the most promising and profitable ideas and promotions to maximize our long-term customer value proposition.

Competition

The markets for micro, small and medium business customized marketing products and services, and home and family customized products, including the printing and graphic design market, are intensely competitive, highly fragmented and geographically dispersed, with many existing and potential competitors. We compete on the basis of breadth and depth of product offerings; price; convenience; quality; design content, tools, and assistance; customer service; ease of use; and production and delivery speed. It is our intention to offer high-quality design, production and marketing services at low price points and in doing so, offer our customers an attractive value proposition. Our current competition includes one or a combination of the following:


•	traditional offline printers and graphic design providers;


•	office superstores, drug store chains, food retailers and other major retailers targeting small business and consumer markets;


•	wholesale printers;


•	online printing and graphic design companies, many of which provide printed products and services similar to ours;


•	self-service desktop design and publishing using personal computer software with a laser or inkjet printer and specialty paper;


•	email marketing services companies;


•	website design and hosting companies;


•	suppliers of customized apparel, promotional products and gifts;


•	online photo product companies;


•	Internet firms and retailers; and


•	other digital marketing such as social media, local search directories and other providers.

As we expand our geographic reach, product and service portfolio and customer base, our competition increases. Our geographic expansion creates competition with competitors with a multi-national presence as well as experienced local vendors. Product offerings such as signage, websites, email marketing, apparel, promotional products and photo products have resulted in new competition as a result of us entering those markets. We encounter competition from large retailers offering a wide breadth of products and highly focused companies concentrated on a subset of our customers or product offerings. Given the state of maturity of the online mass customization market, we believe our biggest competition is still offline providers.

Business Segment and Geographic Information

As of June 30, 2014, our reportable operating segments consisted of North America, Europe and Most of World. For more segment and geographic information about our revenues, operating income and long-lived assets, see Item 8 of Part II, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Note 17 — Segment Information” and Item 7 of Part II, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The descriptions of our business, products, and markets in this section apply to all of our operating segments.

Seasonality

Our business is highly seasonal. Our second fiscal quarter, ending December 31, includes the majority of the holiday shopping season and has become our strongest quarter for sales of our consumer-oriented products, such as holiday cards, calendars, photo books, and personalized gifts. Revenue during the second fiscal quarter represented 30%, 30%, and 29% of annual revenue in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively, and operating income during the second fiscal quarter represented 61%, 72%, and 59% of annual operating income in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Government Regulation

We are currently subject to the regulations that are applicable to businesses generally and to online commerce specifically. The adoption or modification of laws or regulations relating to the Internet, consumer protection, or other areas of our business could limit or otherwise adversely affect the manner in which we currently conduct our business.

Employees

As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately 5,000 full-time and approximately 200 temporary employees worldwide. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, but our employees in the Netherlands are represented by a works council. We are required to provide certain employees in the Netherlands with compensation and benefits equal to or greater than those provided in a collective bargaining agreement covering employees in the Dutch printing trade. Additionally, compensation and benefits for employees in our Barcelona office are equal to or greater than those of the Catalonian collective bargaining agreement for office businesses. We have not experienced any work stoppages and believe that relations with our employees are favorable.

•	our failure to promote, strengthen, and protect our brands;


•	the failure of our current and new marketing channels to attract customers;


•	our failure to manage the growth and complexity of our business and expand our operations;


•	our failure to realize our net income goals due to lower revenue or higher than expected costs;


•	our failure to acquire businesses that enhance the growth and development of our business or to effectively integrate the businesses we do acquire into our business;


•	unanticipated changes in our business, current and anticipated markets, industry, or competitive landscape; and


•	general economic conditions.

In addition, projections are inherently uncertain and are based on assumptions and judgments by management that may be flawed or based on information about our business and markets that may change in the future in ways that may be beyond our control. Our actual results may differ materially from our projections due to various factors, including the factors listed immediately above and in the risk factor below entitled "Our quarterly financial results will often fluctuate," which is also applicable to longer term results.

If our strategy is not successful, or if there is a market perception that our strategy is not successful, then our revenue and earnings may not grow as anticipated or may decline, we may not be profitable, our reputation and brand may be damaged, and the price of our shares may decline. In addition, we may change our financial strategy or other components of our overall business strategy if we believe our current strategy is not effective, if our business or markets change, or for other reasons, which may cause fluctuations in our financial results and volatility in our share price.

If we are unable to attract visitors to our websites and convert those visitors to customers, our business and results of operations could be harmed.

Our success depends on our ability to attract new and repeat customers in a cost-effective manner. We rely on a variety of methods to draw visitors to our websites and promote our products and services, such as purchased search results from online search engines, e-mail, direct mail, advertising banners and other online links, broadcast media, and word-of-mouth customer referrals. If we are not effective at reaching new and repeat customers, if the costs of attracting customers using our current methods significantly increase, or if we are unable to develop new cost-effective means to obtain customers, then traffic to our websites would be reduced, and our business and results of operations would be harmed.

In addition, our internal research shows that an increasing number of current and potential customers access our websites using smart phones or tablet computing devices and that our website visits using traditional desktop computers may be declining. Designing and purchasing custom designed products on a smart phone, tablet, or other mobile device is more difficult than doing so with a traditional computer due to limited screen sizes and bandwidth constraints. Beyond these generic difficulties with a mobile device, our technology is not currently optimized for mobile devices, and the development of mobile-oriented user interfaces and other technologies is complex. Although we are investing to update our technology to be more effective on mobile devices and have made some mobile functionality available to our customers, we cannot predict the success of those investments. We also rely heavily on email to contact and market to our customers, and we believe we may be losing potential sales to customers who use mobile devices to skim and then delete emails without opening them. If we fail to make changes to our websites, technologies, and marketing methods to facilitate the design and purchase of our products with mobile devices, or if the market shift to mobile devices accelerates faster than we are able to make the necessary changes, then we could find it increasingly difficult to attract new and repeat visitors to our websites and convert these visitors to customers, and our revenue could decline.

Purchasers of micro business marketing products and services, including graphic design and customized printing, may not choose to shop online, which would prevent us from acquiring new customers that are necessary to the success of our business.

The online market for micro business marketing products and services is less developed than the online market for other business and home and family products, and our success depends in part on our ability to attract customers who have historically purchased products and services we offer through offline channels. Specific factors that could prevent prospective customers from purchasing from us as an online retailer include:


•	concerns about buying graphic design services and marketing products without face-to-face interaction with sales personnel;


•	the inability to physically handle and examine product samples;


•	delivery time associated with Internet orders;


•	concerns about the security of online transactions and the privacy of personal information;


•	delayed shipments or shipments of incorrect or damaged products;


•	limited access to the Internet; and


•	the inconvenience associated with returning or exchanging purchased items.

We may not succeed in promoting and strengthening our brands, which could prevent us from acquiring new customers and increasing revenues.

A primary component of our business strategy is to promote and strengthen our brands to attract new and repeat customers to our websites, and we face significant competition from other companies in our markets who also seek to establish strong brands. To promote and strengthen our brands, we must incur substantial marketing expenses and establish a relationship of trust with our customers by providing a high-quality customer experience. Providing a high-quality customer experience requires us to invest substantial amounts of resources in our website development, design and technology, graphic design operations, production operations, and customer service

operations. Our ability to provide a high-quality customer experience is also dependent on external factors over which we may have little or no control, including the reliability and performance of our suppliers, third-party carriers, and communication infrastructure providers. If we are unable to promote our brands or provide customers with a high-quality customer experience, we may fail to attract new customers, maintain customer relationships, and sustain or increase our revenues.

Our quarterly financial results will often fluctuate, which may lead to volatility in our share price.

Our revenues and operating results often vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, some of which are inherent in our business strategies but many of which are outside of our control. We target annual, rather than quarterly, financial objectives which can lead to fluctuations in our quarterly results. Other factors that could cause our quarterly revenue and operating results to fluctuate include among others:


•	seasonality-driven or other variations in the demand for our products and services, in particular during our second fiscal quarter;


•	currency and interest rate fluctuations, which affect our revenues and/or costs;


•	hedge activity that does not qualify for, or for which we do not elect, hedge accounting;


•	our ability to attract visitors to our websites and convert those visitors into customers;


•	our ability to retain customers and generate repeat purchases;


•	shifts in product mix toward less profitable products;


•	our ability to manage our production, fulfillment, and support operations;


•	costs to produce and deliver our products and provide our services, including the effects of inflation;


•	our pricing and marketing strategies and those of our competitors;


•	investments in our business to generate or support revenues and operations in future periods, such as incurring marketing, engineering, or consulting expenses in a current period for revenue growth or support in future periods;


•	expenses and charges related to our compensation agreements with our executives and employees;


•	costs and charges resulting from litigation;


•	significant increases in credits, beyond our estimated allowances, for customers who are not satisfied with our products;


•	changes in our income tax rate;


•	costs to acquire businesses or integrate our acquired businesses;


•	impairments of our tangible and intangible assets including goodwill; and


•	the results of our minority investments and joint ventures.

Some of our expenses, such as office leases, depreciation related to previously acquired property and equipment, and personnel costs, are relatively fixed, and we may be unable to adjust operating expenses quickly enough to offset any revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any shortfall in revenue may cause significant variation in operating results in any quarter. Based on the above factors, among others, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results may not be a good indication of our future performance. Our operating results may sometimes be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, in which case the price of our ordinary shares will likely decline.

Our global operations and expansion place a significant strain on our management, employees, facilities and other resources and subject us to additional risks.

We currently operate production facilities or offices in 17 countries and have many localized websites across our fourteen customer-facing brands to serve various geographic markets. We expect to establish operations and sell our products and services in additional geographic regions, including emerging markets, where we may have limited or no experience. We may not be successful in all regions in which we invest or where we establish operations, which may be costly to us. We are subject to a number of risks and challenges that relate to our global operations and expansion, including, among others:


•	difficulty managing operations in, and communications among, multiple locations and time zones;


•	difficulty complying with multiple tax laws, treaties, and regulations and limiting our exposure to onerous or unanticipated taxes, duties, and other costs;


•	local regulations that may restrict or impair our ability to conduct our business as planned;


•	protectionist laws and business practices that favor local producers and service providers;


•	our inexperience in marketing and selling our products and services within unfamiliar countries and cultures;


•	challenges of working with local business partners in some regions, such as Japan and China;


•	our failure to properly understand and develop graphic design content and product formats appropriate for local tastes;


•	disruptions caused by political and social instability that may occur in some countries;


•	corrupt business practices, such as bribery, that may be common in some countries;


•	difficulty expatriating our earnings from some countries;


•	disruptions or cessation of important components of our international supply chain;


•	the challenge of complying with disparate laws in multiple countries;


•	restrictions imposed by local labor practices and laws on our business and operations; and


•	failure of local laws to provide a sufficient degree of protection against infringement of our intellectual property.

To manage our operations and anticipated growth, we must continue to refine our operational, financial, and management controls, human resource policies, reporting systems, and procedures in the locations in which we operate. If we are unable to implement improvements to these systems and controls in an efficient or timely manner or if we discover deficiencies in our existing systems and controls, then our ability to provide a high-quality customer experience could be harmed, which would damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Acquisitions and strategic investments may be disruptive to our business.

A component of our strategy is to selectively pursue acquisitions of businesses, technologies, or services and invest in businesses and joint ventures. The time and expense associated with finding suitable businesses, technologies, or services to acquire or invest in can be disruptive to our ongoing business and divert our management's attention. In addition, we have needed in the past, and may need in the future, to seek financing for acquisitions and investments, which may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, or at all, and can cause dilution to our shareholders, cause us to incur additional debt, or subject us to covenants restricting the activities we may undertake.

In addition, integrating newly acquired businesses, technologies, and services and monitoring and managing our investments and joint ventures are complex, expensive, time consuming and subject to many risks, including the following:


•	We may not be able to retain customers and key employees of the acquired businesses, and we and the businesses we acquire or invest in may not be able to cross sell products and services to each other's customers.


•	In some cases, our acquisitions and investments are dilutive for a period of time, leading to reduced earnings. For example, the Albumprinter and Webs acquisitions have resulted in additional intangible asset amortization and share-based compensation expense.

•

An acquisition or investment may fail to achieve our goals and expectations because we fail to integrate the acquired business, technologies, or services effectively, the integration is more expensive or takes more time than we anticipated, the management of our investment is more expensive or takes more resources than we expected, or the business we acquired or invested in does not perform as well as we expected.


•	Acquisitions and investments can result in large write-offs including impairments of goodwill and intangible assets if financial goals are not achieved, assumptions of contingent or unanticipated liabilities, or increased tax costs.

We often pay a portion of the purchase price for our acquisitions in the form of an earn-out. For example, in addition to the initial purchase consideration we paid for People & Print Group, we agreed to a sliding scale earn-out that is based on People & Print Group's revenue and EBITDA targets for calendar year 2015. We accrue liabilities for estimated future contingent earn-out payments based on an evaluation of the likelihood of achievement of the contractual conditions underlying the earn-out and weighted probability assumptions of the required outcomes.

As a component of the purchase price of People & Print Group, we included an estimated acquisition date fair value and recorded a liability of $9.8 million (€7.2 million) for the earn-out payment as of June 30, 2014. The earn-out amount is theoretically unlimited and could be significant in relation to the base purchase price.

In addition to our contingent earn-out liability relating to People & Print Group, we had contingent earn-out liability related to the Pixartprinting acquisition of $6.3 million (€4.6million) as of June 30, 2014. The earn-out amount is limited to a maximum payment of $13.2 million (€9.6 million).

If in the future our assumptions change and we determine that higher levels of achievement are likely under our earn-outs, we will need to pay and record additional amounts to reflect the increased purchase price. Such additional amounts could be significant and adversely impact our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

Seasonal fluctuations in our business place a strain on our operations and resources.

Our business is highly seasonal. Our second fiscal quarter includes the majority of the holiday shopping season and accounts for a disproportionately high portion of our earnings for the year, primarily due to higher sales of home and family products such as holiday cards, calendars, photo books, and personalized gifts. Revenue during the second fiscal quarter represented 30%, 30%, and 29% of annual revenue in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively, and operating income during the second fiscal quarter represented 61%, 72%, and 59% of annual operating income in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. In anticipation of increased sales activity during our second fiscal quarter holiday season, we typically incur significant additional capacity related expenses each year to meet our seasonal needs, including facility expansions, equipment purchases, and increases in the number of temporary and permanent employees. Lower than expected sales during the second quarter would likely have a disproportionately large impact on our operating results and financial condition for the full fiscal year. In addition, if our manufacturing and other operations are unable to keep up with the high volume of orders during our second fiscal quarter, we and our customers can experience delays in order fulfillment and delivery and other disruptions. If we are unable to accurately forecast and respond to seasonality in our business, our business and results of operations may be materially harmed.

A significant portion of our revenues and expenses are transacted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, our reporting currency. We therefore have currency exchange risk, despite our efforts to mitigate such risk through our currency hedging program.

We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that may impact items such as the translation of our revenues and expenses, remeasurement of our intercompany balances, and the value of our cash and cash equivalents and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. For example, when currency exchange movements are unfavorable to our business, the U.S. dollar equivalent values of our revenue and operating results and net assets recorded in other currencies is diminished, particularly in certain currencies where we have disproportionate revenues or expenses. While we engage in hedging activities to try to partially mitigate the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations, our results of operations and financial condition may differ materially from expectations as a result of such fluctuations. As we expand our operations throughout the world, our exposure to additional currencies and exchange rate fluctuations is increasing. Additionally, our income tax rate may be impacted by fluctuations in currency exchange rates in jurisdictions where our tax returns are prepared in a currency other than the functional currency.

Our hedging activity could negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.

We have entered into interest rate swap and currency forward contracts to manage differences in the amount of our known or expected cash payments or receipts related to our long-term debt and operating cash flows. Our objective in using these derivatives is to manage our exposure to interest rate and currency movements. If we do not accurately forecast our future long-term debt, revenue or expenditure levels, execute contracts that do not effectively mitigate our economic exposure to variable interest and currency rates, elect to not apply hedge accounting, or fail to comply with the complex accounting requirements for hedging, our results of operations and cash flows could be volatile, as well as negatively impacted.

We face risks related to interruption of our operations and lack of redundancy.

Our production facilities, websites, infrastructure, supply chain, customer service centers, and operations may be vulnerable to interruptions, and we do not have redundancies in all cases to carry on these operations in the event of an interruption. Some of the events that could cause interruptions in our operations or systems are, among others:


•	fire, flood, earthquake, hurricane, or other natural disaster or extreme weather;


•	labor strike, work stoppage, or other issue with our workforce;


•	political instability or acts of terrorism or war;


•	power loss or telecommunication failure;


•	attacks on our external websites or internal network by hackers or other malicious parties;


•	undetected errors or design faults in our technology, infrastructure, and processes that may cause our websites to fail;


•	inadequate capacity in our systems and infrastructure to cope with periods of high volume and demand; and


•	human error, including poor managerial judgment or oversight.

In particular, both Bermuda, where substantially all of the computer hardware necessary to operate our websites is located in a single facility, and Jamaica, our largest customer service, sales, and design support operation, are subject to a high degree of hurricane risk and extreme weather conditions.

We have not identified alternatives to all of our facilities, systems, supply chains, production operations, and infrastructure to serve us in the event of an interruption, and if we were to find alternatives, they may not be able to meet our requirements on commercially acceptable terms or at all. In addition, because we are dependent in part on third parties for the implementation and maintenance of certain aspects of our communications and production

systems, we may not be able to remedy interruptions to these systems in a timely manner or at all due to factors outside of our control.

Any interruptions to our systems or operations could result in lost revenue, increased costs, negative publicity, damage to our reputation and brand, and an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Building redundancies into our infrastructure, systems and supply chain to mitigate these risks may require us to commit substantial financial, operational, and technical resources, in some cases before the volume of our business increases with no assurance that our revenues will increase.

We face intense competition, and we expect our competition to continue to increase.

The markets for small business marketing products and services and home and family custom products, including the printing and graphic design market, are intensely competitive, highly fragmented, and geographically dispersed. The competitive landscape for e-commerce companies continues to change as new e-commerce businesses are introduced and traditional “bricks and mortar” businesses establish an online presence. The increased use of the Internet for commerce and other technological advances have allowed traditional providers of these products and services to improve the quality of their offerings, produce and deliver those products and services more efficiently, and reach a broader purchasing public. Competition may result in price pressure, reduced profit margins and loss of market share and brand recognition, any of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations. Current and potential competitors include:


•	traditional offline printers and graphic design providers;


•	online printing and graphic design companies, many of which provide printed products and services similar to ours;


•	office superstores, drug store chains, food retailers and other major retailers targeting small business and consumer markets;


•	wholesale printers;


•	self-service desktop design and publishing using personal computer software with a laser or inkjet printer and specialty paper;


•	email marketing services companies;


•	website design and hosting companies;


•	suppliers of customized apparel, promotional products and gifts;


•	online photo product companies;


•	Internet firms and retailers; and


•	other digital marketing such as social media, local search directories and other providers.

Many of our current and potential competitors have advantages over us, including longer operating histories, greater brand recognition or loyalty, more focus on a given subset of our business, or significantly greater financial, marketing, and other resources. Many of our competitors currently work together, and additional competitors may do so in the future through strategic business agreements or acquisitions. Competitors may also develop new or enhanced products, technologies or capabilities that could render many of the products, services and content we offer obsolete or less competitive, which could harm our business and results of operations.

In addition, we have in the past and may in the future choose to collaborate with some of our existing and potential competitors in strategic partnerships that we believe will improve our competitive position and results of operations, such as through a retail in-store or web-based collaborative offering. It is possible, however, that such ventures will be unsuccessful and that our competitive position and results of operations will be adversely affected as a result of such collaboration.

Failure to meet our customers' price expectations would adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Demand for our products and services, in particular in the Price Primary Market Segment where we generate most of our business, is sensitive to price, and changes in our pricing strategies have a significant impact on our revenues and results of operations. For example, recent changes to our pricing and marketing strategies have adversely affected our revenue growth in some regions. Many factors can significantly impact our pricing and marketing strategies, including the costs of running our business, our competitors' pricing and marketing strategies, and the effects of inflation. We offer some free or discounted products and services as a means of attracting customers and encouraging repeat purchases, but these free offers and discounts reduce our profit margins and may not result in repeat business to increase our revenues. As we continue our strategy of reducing the frequency of free and deep discount promotions as a customer acquisition and retention tool, we have seen resulting declines in both the number of new customers that purchase from us and short-term repeat orders, despite a consistent trend of higher average order value. There can be no assurance that this trend can be reversed or that the higher average order value that we recently experienced will continue. If we fail to meet our customers' price expectations, our business and results of operations will suffer.

Failure to protect our networks and the confidential information of our customers, employees, and business partners against security breaches could damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches or to address problems caused by breaches. Any compromise or breach of our network or the technology that we use to protect our network, our employee personal data, and our customer transaction data, including credit and debit card information, could damage our reputation and brand; expose us to losses, litigation, and possible liability; result in a failure to comply with legal and industry privacy regulations and standards; lead to the misappropriation of our and our customers' proprietary information; or cause interruptions in our operations. In addition, some of our partners also collect information from transactions with our customers, and we may be liable or our reputation may be harmed if our partners fail to protect our customers' information or use it in a manner that is inconsistent with legal and industry privacy regulations or our practices.

If we fail to address risks associated with payment fraud, our reputation and brands could be damaged, and our business and results of operations could be harmed.

We may be liable for fraudulent transactions conducted on our websites, such as through the use of stolen credit card numbers. To date, quarterly losses from payment fraud have not exceeded 1% of total revenues in any quarter, but we continue to face the risk of significant losses from this type of fraud.

We depend on search engines to attract a substantial portion of the customers who visit our websites, and losing these customers would adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Many customers access our websites by clicking through on search results displayed by search engines such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo!. If the search engines on which we rely modify their algorithms, terminate their relationships with us, or increase the prices at which we may purchase listings, our costs could increase, and fewer customers may click through to our websites. If fewer customers click through to our websites, we could be required to resort to other more costly resources to replace this traffic, which could adversely affect our revenues and operating and net income and could harm our business.

In addition, some of our competitors purchase the term “Vistaprint” and other terms incorporating our proprietary trademarks from Google and other search engines as part of their search listing advertising. Courts do not always side with the trademark owners in cases involving search engines, and Google has refused to prevent companies from purchasing search results that use the trademark “Vistaprint.” As a result, we may not be able to prevent our competitors from advertising to, and directly competing for, customers who search for the term “Vistaprint” on search engines.

We rely heavily on email to market to and communicate with customers, and email communications are subject to regulatory and reputation risks.

Various private entities attempt to regulate the use of commercial email solicitation by blacklisting companies that the entities believe do not meet their standards, which results in those companies' emails being blocked from some Internet domains and addresses. Although we believe that our commercial email solicitations comply with all applicable laws, from time to time some of our Internet protocol addresses appear on some of these blacklists. The blacklisting sometimes interferes with our ability to send operational or advertising emails to our current and potential customers and to send and receive emails to and from our corporate email accounts, which can interfere with our ability to market our products and services, communicate with our customers, and operate and manage our websites and corporate email accounts. In addition, as a result of being blacklisted, we have had disputes with, or concerns raised by, various service providers who perform services for us, including co-location and hosting services, Internet service providers and electronic mail distribution services.

Further, we have contractual relationships with partners that market our products and services on our behalf, and some of our marketing partners engage third-party email marketers with which we do not have any contractual or other relationship. Although we believe we comply with all applicable laws relating to email solicitations and our contracts with our partners require that they do the same, we do not always have control over the third-party email marketers that our partners engage. If such a third party were to send emails marketing our products and services in violation of applicable anti-spam or other laws, then our reputation could be harmed and we could potentially be liable for their actions.

We are subject to safety, health, and environmental laws and regulations, which could result in

liabilities, cost increases or restrictions on our operations.

We are subject to a variety of safety, health and environmental (“SHE”) laws and regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges, the storage, handling and disposal of hazardous and other regulated substances and wastes, soil and groundwater contamination and employee health and safety. We use regulated substances such as inks and solvents, and generate air emissions and other discharges at our manufacturing facilities, and some of our facilities are required to hold environmental permits. If we fail to comply with existing SHE requirements, or new, more stringent SHE requirements applicable to us are imposed, we may be subject to monetary fines, civil or criminal sanctions, third-party claims or the limitation or suspension of our operations. In addition, if we are found to be responsible for hazardous substances at any location (including, for example, offsite waste disposal facilities or facilities at which we formerly operated), we may be responsible for the cost of cleaning up contamination, regardless of fault, as well as to claims for harm to health or property or for natural resource damages arising out of contamination or exposure to hazardous substances.

Our customers create products that incorporate images, illustrations and fonts that we license from third parties, and any loss of the right to use these licensed materials may substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Many of the images, illustrations, and fonts incorporated in the design products and services we offer are the copyrighted property of other parties that we use under license agreements. If one or more of our licenses covering a significant amount of content were terminated, the amount and variety of content available on our websites would be significantly reduced, and we may not be able to find, license, and introduce substitute content in a timely manner, on acceptable terms, or at all.

The loss of key personnel or an inability to attract and retain additional personnel could affect our ability to successfully grow our business.

We are highly dependent upon the continued service and performance of our senior management team and key technical, marketing, and production personnel, any of whom may cease their employment with us at any time with minimal advance notice. We face intense competition for qualified individuals from many other companies in diverse industries. The loss of one or more of our key employees may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives, and our failure to attract and retain suitably qualified individuals could have an adverse effect on our ability to implement our business plan.

Our credit facility contains financial and operating restrictions and covenants that may limit our ability to take certain actions and our access to additional credit and could negatively impact our liquidity.

Our credit facility imposes limitations on our ability to, among other things:


•	incur additional indebtedness and liens outside of the credit facility;


•	make certain investments, payments, or changes in our corporate structure; and


•	make capital expenditures or purchase our ordinary shares in excess of certain limits.

In addition, we are required to meet certain financial and other covenants that are customary for this type of credit facility, and our inability to comply with these covenants could result in a default under the credit facility, which could cause us to be unable to borrow under the credit facility and may result in the acceleration of the maturity of our outstanding indebtedness under the facility. If we were unable to borrow further under the facility, we may not be able to make investments in our business to support our strategy. If the maturities were accelerated, we may not have sufficient funds available for repayment, and we could end up in bankruptcy proceedings or other similar processes or may have to refinance at unfavorable terms. In addition, our shareholders would be detrimentally impacted as shareholder value could decrease to a point of limited return. Each scenario would result in significant negative implications to our business, liquidity, and results of operations.

The United States government may further increase border controls and impose duties or restrictions on cross-border commerce that may substantially harm our business by impeding our shipments into the United States from our Canadian manufacturing facility.

For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 we derived 51% and 52% of our revenue, respectively, from sales to customers in the United States. We produce substantially all physical products for our United States customers at our facility in Ontario, Canada, and the United States imposes restrictions on shipping goods into the United States from Canada, as well as protectionist measures such as customs duties and tariffs that may apply directly to product categories comprising a material portion of our revenues. The customs laws, rules and regulations that we are required to comply with are complex and subject to unpredictable enforcement and modification. We have from time to time experienced delays in shipping our manufactured products into the United States as a result of these restrictions.

In the future, the United States could impose further border controls, tariffs and restrictions, interpret or apply regulations in a manner unfavorable to the importation of products from outside the United States, or take other actions that have the effect of restricting the flow of goods from Canada and other countries into the United States, up to and including shutting down the United States-Canada border for an extended period of time. If we experience greater difficulty or delays shipping products into the United States or are foreclosed from doing so, or if our costs and expenses materially increased, our business and results of operations could be harmed.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our reputation and brands could be damaged, and others may be able to use our technology, which could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets and copyrights and contractual restrictions to protect our intellectual property, but these protective measures afford only limited protection. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may be able to copy or use technology or information that we consider proprietary. There can be no guarantee that any of our pending patent applications or continuation patent applications will be granted, and from time to time we face infringement, invalidity, intellectual property ownership, or similar claims brought by third parties with respect to our patents. In addition, despite our trademark registrations throughout the world, our competitors or other entities may adopt names, marks, or domain names similar to ours, thereby impeding our ability to build brand identity and possibly leading to customer confusion. Enforcing our intellectual property rights can be extremely costly, and a failure to protect or enforce these rights could damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Intellectual property disputes and litigation are costly and could cause us to lose our exclusive rights, subject us to liability, or require us to stop some of our business activities.

From time to time, we receive claims from third parties that we infringe their intellectual property rights, that we are required to enter into patent licenses covering aspects of the technology we use in our business, or that we improperly obtained or used their confidential or proprietary information. Any litigation, settlement, license, or other proceeding relating to intellectual property rights, even if we settle it or it is resolved in our favor, could be costly, divert our management's efforts from managing and growing our business, and create uncertainties that may make it more difficult to run our operations. If any parties successfully claim that we infringe their intellectual property rights, we might be forced to pay significant damages and attorney's fees, and we could be restricted from using certain technologies important to the operation of our business.

Our business is dependent on the Internet, and unfavorable changes in government regulation of the Internet, e-commerce, and email marketing could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Due to our dependence on the Internet for our sales, laws specifically governing the Internet, e-commerce and email marketing may have a greater impact on our operations than other more traditional businesses. Existing and future laws, such as laws covering pricing, customs, privacy, consumer protection, or commercial email, may impede the growth of e-commerce and our ability to compete with traditional “bricks and mortar” retailers. It is not always clear how existing laws governing these and other issues apply to the Internet and e-commerce, as the vast majority of applicable laws were adopted before the advent of the Internet and do not contemplate or address the unique issues raised by the Internet or e-commerce. Those laws that do reference the Internet, such as the Bermuda Electronic Transactions Act 1999, the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and the U.S. CAN SPAM Act of 2003, are only beginning to be interpreted by the courts, and their applicability and reach are therefore uncertain. Those current and future laws and regulations or unfavorable resolution of these issues may substantially harm our business and results of operations.

We face judicial and regulatory challenges to our practice of offering free products and services, which, if successful, could hinder our ability to attract customers and generate revenue.

At times we offer free products and services as an inducement for customers to try our products and services. Although we believe that we conspicuously and clearly communicate all details and conditions of these offers, such as the shipping and processing charges associated with these offers, from time to time we face claims, complaints, and inquiries from our customers, competitors, governmental regulators, standards bodies, and others that our free offers are misleading or do not comply with applicable legislation or regulation. If we are compelled or determine to curtail or eliminate our use of free offers as the result of any such actions, our business prospects and results of operations could be materially harmed.

If we were required to review the content that our customers incorporate into our products and interdict the shipment of products that violate copyright protections or other laws, our costs would significantly increase, which would harm our results of operations.

Because of our focus on automation and high volumes, the vast majority of our sales do not involve any human-based review of content. Although our websites' terms of use specifically require customers to make representations about the legality and ownership of the content they upload for production, there is a risk that a customer may supply an image or other content for an order we produce that is the property of another party used without permission, that infringes the copyright or trademark of another party, or that would be considered to be defamatory, hateful, obscene, or otherwise objectionable or illegal under the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where that customer lives or where we operate. If we were to become legally obligated to perform manual screening of customer orders, our costs would increase significantly, and we could be required to pay substantial penalties or monetary damages for any failure in our screening process.

We are subject to customer payment-related risks.

We accept payments for our products and services on our websites by a variety of methods, including credit or debit card, PayPal, check, wire transfer or other methods. In some geographic regions, we rely on one or two third party companies to provide payment processing services. If any of the payment processing or other companies with which we have contractual arrangements became unwilling or unable to provide these services to

us or they or we are unable to comply with our contractual requirements under such arrangements, then we would need to find and engage replacement providers, which we may not be able to do on terms that are acceptable to us or at all, or to process the payments ourselves. Any of these scenarios could be disruptive to our business as they could be costly and time consuming and may unfavorably impact our customers.

As we offer new payment options to our customers, we may be subject to additional regulations, compliance requirements and fraud risk. For some payment methods, including credit and debit cards, we pay interchange and other fees, which may increase over time and raise our operating costs and lower our profit margins or require that we charge our customers more for our products. We are also subject to payment card association and similar operating rules and requirements, which could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules and requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and lose our ability to accept credit and debit card payments from our customers or facilitate other types of online payments, and our business and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

We may be subject to product liability claims if people or property are harmed by the products we sell.

Some of the products we sell may expose us to product liability claims relating to personal injury, death, or property damage, and may require product recalls or other actions. Any claims, litigation, or recalls relating to product liability could be costly to us and damage our brands and reputation.

Our inability to acquire or maintain domain names in each country or region where we currently or intend to do business could negatively impact our brands and our ability to sell our products and services in that country or region.

From time to time we have difficulty obtaining a domain name using Vistaprint or our other trademarks in a particular country or region, and we may not be able to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that infringe or otherwise decrease the value of our trademarks and other proprietary rights. If we are unable to use a domain name in a particular country, then we could be forced to purchase the domain name from an entity that owns or controls it, which we may not be able to do on commercially acceptable terms or at all; we may incur significant additional expenses to develop a new brand to market our products within that country; or we may elect not to sell products in that country.

Our results of operations may be negatively affected if we are required to charge sales, value added, or other taxes on Internet sales in additional jurisdictions.

In some of the jurisdictions where we sell products and services, we do not collect or have imposed upon us sales, value added or other consumption taxes, which we refer to as indirect taxes. The application of indirect taxes to e-commerce businesses such as Vistaprint is a complex and evolving issue. Many of the fundamental statutes and regulations that impose these taxes were established before the growth of the Internet and e-commerce, and in many cases, it is not clear how existing statutes apply to the Internet or e-commerce. For example, some state governments in the United States have imposed or are seeking to impose indirect taxes on Internet sales. The imposition by national, state or local governments, whether within or outside the United States, of additional taxes upon Internet commerce could discourage customers from purchasing products from us, decrease our ability to compete with traditional retailers, or otherwise negatively impact our results of operations. Additionally, a successful assertion by one or more governments in jurisdictions where we are not currently collecting sales or value added taxes that we should be, or should have been, collecting indirect taxes on the sale of our products could result in substantial tax liabilities for past sales.

If we are unable to retain security authentication certificates, which are supplied by a limited number of third party providers over which we exercise little or no control, our business could be harmed.

We are dependent on a limited number of third party providers of website security authentication certificates that are necessary for conducting secure transactions over the Internet. Despite any contractual protections we may have, these third party providers can disable or revoke, and in the past have disabled or revoked, our security certificates without our consent, which would render our websites inaccessible to some of our customers and could discourage other customers from accessing our sites. Any interruption in our customers' ability or willingness to access our websites if we do not have adequate security certificates could result in a material loss of revenue and profits and damage to our brands.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure

Challenges by various tax authorities to our international structure could, if successful, increase our effective tax rate and adversely affect our earnings.

We are a Dutch limited liability company that operates through various subsidiaries in a number of countries throughout the world. Consequently, we are subject to tax laws, treaties and regulations in the countries in which we operate, and these laws and treaties are subject to interpretation. From time to time, we are subject to tax audits, and the tax authorities in these countries could claim that a greater portion of the income of the Vistaprint N.V. group should be subject to income or other tax in their respective jurisdictions, which could result in an increase to our effective tax rate and adversely affect our results of operations. For more information about audits to which we are currently subject refer to Note 14 “Income Taxes” in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Report.

A change in tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, of any country in which we operate could result in a higher tax rate on our earnings, which could result in a significant negative impact on our earnings and cash flow from operations. We continue to assess the impact of various international tax proposals and modifications to existing tax treaties between the Netherlands and other countries that could result in a material impact on our income taxes. We cannot predict whether any specific legislation will be enacted or the terms of any such legislation. However, if such proposals were enacted, or if modifications were to be made to certain existing treaties, the consequences could have a materially adverse impact on us, including increasing our tax burden, increasing costs of our tax compliance or otherwise adversely affecting our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our intercompany arrangements may be challenged, which could result in higher taxes or penalties and an adverse effect on our earnings.

We operate pursuant to written intercompany service and related agreements, which we also refer to as transfer pricing agreements, among Vistaprint N.V. and its subsidiaries. These agreements establish transfer prices for production, marketing, management, technology development and other services performed by these subsidiaries for other group companies. Transfer prices are prices that one company in a group of related companies charges to another member of the group for goods, services or the use of property. If two or more affiliated companies are located in different countries, the tax laws or regulations of each country generally will require that transfer prices be consistent with those between unrelated companies dealing at arm's length. With the exception of certain jurisdictions where we have obtained rulings or advance pricing agreements, our transfer pricing arrangements are not binding on applicable tax authorities, and no official authority in any other country has made a determination as to whether or not we are operating in compliance with its transfer pricing laws. If tax authorities in any country were successful in challenging our transfer prices as not reflecting arm's length transactions, they could require us to adjust our transfer prices and thereby reallocate our income to reflect these revised transfer prices. A reallocation of taxable income from a lower tax jurisdiction to a higher tax jurisdiction would result in a higher tax liability to us. In addition, if the country from which the income is reallocated does not agree with the reallocation, both countries could tax the same income, resulting in double taxation.

Our Articles of Association, Dutch law and the independent foundation, Stichting Continuïteit Vistaprint, may make it difficult to replace or remove management, may inhibit or delay a change of control or may dilute your voting power.

Our Articles of Association, or Articles, as governed by Dutch law, limit our shareholders' ability to suspend or dismiss the members of our management board and supervisory board or to overrule our supervisory board's nominees to our management board and supervisory board by requiring a supermajority vote to do so under most circumstances. As a result, there may be circumstances in which shareholders may not be able to remove members of our management board or supervisory board even if holders of a majority of our ordinary shares favor doing so.

In addition, an independent foundation, Stichting Continuïteit Vistaprint, or the Foundation, exists to safeguard the interests of Vistaprint N.V. and its stakeholders, which include but are not limited to our shareholders, and to assist in maintaining Vistaprint's continuity and independence. To this end, we have granted the Foundation a call option pursuant to which the Foundation may acquire a number of preferred shares equal to the same number of ordinary shares then outstanding, which is designed to provide a protective measure against unsolicited

take-over bids for Vistaprint and other hostile threats. If the Foundation were to exercise the call option, it may prevent a change of control or delay or prevent a takeover attempt, including a takeover attempt that might result in a premium over the market price for our ordinary shares. Exercise of the preferred share option would also effectively dilute the voting power of our outstanding ordinary shares by one half.

We have limited flexibility with respect to certain aspects of capital management and certain corporate transactions.

Dutch law requires shareholder approval for the issuance of shares and grants preemptive rights to existing shareholders to subscribe for new issuances of shares. In November 2011, our shareholders granted our supervisory board and management board the authority to issue ordinary shares as the boards determine appropriate, without obtaining specific shareholder approval for each issuance, and to limit or exclude shareholders' preemptive rights. However, this authorization expires in November 2016. Although we plan to seek re-approval from our shareholders from time to time in the future, we may not succeed in obtaining future re-approvals. In addition, subject to specified exceptions, Dutch law requires shareholder approval for many corporate actions, such as the approval of dividends, authorization to purchase outstanding shares, and corporate acquisitions of a certain size. Situations may arise where the flexibility to issue shares, pay dividends, purchase shares, acquire other companies, or take other corporate actions without a shareholder vote would be beneficial to us, but is not available under Dutch law.

Because of our corporate structure, our shareholders may find it difficult to pursue legal remedies against the members of our supervisory board or management board.

Our Articles and our internal corporate affairs are governed by Dutch law, and the rights of our shareholders and the responsibilities of our supervisory board and management board are different from those established under United States laws. For example, under Dutch law derivative lawsuits are generally not available, and our supervisory board and management board are responsible for acting in the best interests of the company, its business and all of its stakeholders generally (including employees, customers and creditors), not just shareholders. As a result, our shareholders may find it more difficult to protect their interests against actions by members of our supervisory board or management board than they would if we were a U.S. corporation.

Because of our corporate structure, our shareholders may find it difficult to enforce claims based on United States federal or state laws, including securities liabilities, against us or our management team.

We are incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, and the vast majority of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, some of our officers and management board members reside outside of the United States. In most cases, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by a U.S. federal or state court would not be directly enforceable in the Netherlands. Although there is a process under Dutch law for petitioning a Dutch court to enforce a judgment rendered in the United States, there can be no assurance that a Dutch court would impose civil liability on us or our management team in any lawsuit predicated solely upon U.S. securities or other laws. In addition, because most of our assets are located outside of the United States, it could be difficult for investors to place a lien on our assets in connection with a claim of liability under U.S. laws. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce U.S. court judgments or rights predicated upon U.S. laws against us or our management team outside of the United States.

We may not be able to make distributions or purchase shares without subjecting our shareholders to Dutch withholding tax.

A Dutch withholding tax may be levied on dividends and similar distributions made by Vistaprint N.V. to its shareholders at the statutory rate of 15% if we cannot structure such distributions as being made to shareholders in relation to a reduction of par value, which would be non-taxable for Dutch withholding tax purposes. We have purchased our shares and may seek to purchase additional shares in the future. Under our Dutch Advanced Tax Ruling, a purchase of shares should not result in any Dutch withholding tax if we hold the purchased shares in treasury for the purpose of issuing shares pursuant to employee share awards or for the funding of acquisitions. However, if the shares cannot be used for these purposes, or the Dutch tax authorities challenge the use of the shares for these purposes, such a purchase of shares for the purposes of capital reduction may be treated as a partial liquidation subject to the 15% Dutch withholding tax to be levied on the difference between our recognized paid in capital per share for Dutch tax purposes and the redemption price per share. Our recognized paid in capital

per share for Dutch tax purposes is €28.99 per share translated as of the date of our reincorporation to the Netherlands on August 28, 2009.

We may be treated as a passive foreign investment company for United States tax purposes, which may subject United States shareholders to adverse tax consequences.

If our passive income, or our assets that produce passive income, exceed levels provided by law for any taxable year, we may be characterized as a passive foreign investment company, or a PFIC, for United States federal income tax purposes. If we are treated as a PFIC, U.S. holders of our ordinary shares would be subject to a disadvantageous United States federal income tax regime with respect to the distributions they receive and the gain, if any, they derive from the sale or other disposition of their ordinary shares.

We believe that we were not a PFIC for the tax year ended June 30, 2014 and we expect that we will not become a PFIC in the foreseeable future. However, whether we are treated as a PFIC depends on questions of fact as to our assets and revenues that can only be determined at the end of each tax year. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will not be treated as a PFIC for our current tax year or for any subsequent year.

If a United States shareholder acquires 10% or more of our ordinary shares, it may be subject to increased United States taxation under the “controlled foreign corporation” rules. Additionally, this may negatively impact the demand for our ordinary shares.

If a United States shareholder owns 10% or more of our ordinary shares, it may be subject to increased United States federal income taxation (and possibly state income taxation) under the “controlled foreign corporation” rules. In general, each U.S. person who owns (or is deemed to own) at least 10% of the voting power of a non-U.S. corporation, “10% U.S. Shareholder,” and if such non-U.S. corporation is a “controlled foreign corporation”, or “CFC,” for an uninterrupted period of 30 days or more during a taxable year, then a 10% U.S. shareholder who owns (or is deemed to own) shares in the CFC on the last day of the CFC's taxable year, must include in its gross income for United States federal income tax (and possibly state income tax) purposes its pro rata share of the CFC's “subpart F income”, even if the "subpart F income" is not distributed. In general, a non-U.S. corporation is considered a CFC if one or more 10% U.S. Shareholders together own more than 50% of the voting power or value of the corporation on any day during the taxable year of the corporation. “Subpart F income” consists of, among other things, certain types of dividends, interest, rents, royalties, gains, and certain types of income from services and personal property sales.

The rules for determining ownership for purposes of determining 10% U.S. Shareholder and CFC status are complicated, depend on the particular facts relating to each investor, and are not necessarily the same as the rules for determining beneficial ownership for SEC reporting purposes. For taxable years in which we are a CFC for an uninterrupted period of 30 days or more, each of our 10% U.S. Shareholders will be required to include in its gross income for United States federal income tax purposes its pro rata share of our "subpart F income", even if the subpart F income is not distributed by us. We currently do not believe we are a CFC. However, whether we are treated as a CFC can be affected by, among other things, facts as to our share ownership that may change. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will not be treated as a CFC for our current tax year or any subsequent tax year.

The risk of being subject to increased taxation as a CFC may deter our current shareholders from acquiring additional ordinary shares or new shareholders from establishing a position in our ordinary shares. Either of these scenarios could impact the demand for, and value of, our ordinary shares.

Our tax rate may increase during periods when our profitability declines. Additionally, we will pay taxes even if we are not profitable on a consolidated basis, which would harm our results of operations.

The intercompany service and related agreements among Vistaprint N.V. and our direct and indirect subsidiaries ensure that most of the subsidiaries realize profits based on their operating expenses. As a result, if the Vistaprint group is less profitable, or even not profitable on a consolidated basis, the majority of our subsidiaries will be profitable and incur income taxes in their respective jurisdictions. In periods of declining operating profitability or losses on a consolidated basis this structure will increase our effective tax rate or our consolidated losses and further harm our results of operations.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 2. Properties

We own real property associated with three manufacturing facilities we have constructed for the production of our products, as well as one of our customer support centers. Our 582,000 square foot facility located near Windsor, Ontario, Canada primarily services our North American market, our 362,000 square foot facility located in Venlo, the Netherlands primarily services our European market, and our 124,000 square foot facility located in Deer Park, Australia primarily services our Asia-Pacific markets. We own a 92,000 square foot building in Montego Bay, Jamaica that is used as a customer service, sales and design support center. Our web servers are located in a data center space at a LinkBermuda (formerly known as Cable and Wireless) co-location and hosting facility in Devonshire, Bermuda.

We currently lease a 202,000 square foot facility in Lexington, Massachusetts, which contains technology development, marketing and administrative employees and is included in the North America business segment below. In July 2013, we executed an eleven-year lease to move our Lexington operations to a new 302,000 square foot facility in Waltham, Massachusetts, commencing in the second half of calendar year 2015. As of June 30, 2014, a summary of our currently occupied leased spaces is as follows:

Equity Securities

The ordinary shares of Vistaprint N.V. are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (the "NASDAQ") under the symbol “VPRT.” As of July 31, 2014, there were approximately 11 holders of record of our ordinary shares, although there is a much larger number of beneficial owners. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low sale price per share of our ordinary shares on the NASDAQ:



	High		Low
Fiscal 2013:
First Quarter	$	42.59	$	30.58

Third Quarter	$	55.20	$	46.95
Fourth Quarter	$	53.42	$	38.58

Dividends

We have never paid or declared any cash dividends on our ordinary shares, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all future earnings to finance the growth and operations of our business, purchase our ordinary shares, or pay down our debt. Under Dutch law, we may only pay dividends out of profits shown in our adopted annual accounts prepared in accordance with Dutch generally accepted accounting principles. We will only be able to declare and pay dividends to the extent our equity exceeds the sum of the paid and called up portion of our ordinary share capital and the reserves that must be maintained in accordance with provisions of Dutch law and our articles of association.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The following table outlines the purchases of our ordinary shares during the three months ended June 30, 2014:



	Total Number of Shares Purchased (1)	Average Price Paid Per Share (2)		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of a Publicly Announced Program	Approximate Number of Shares that May Yet be Purchased Under the Program

(1)

On May 5, 2014, in order to provide us with flexibility to repurchase our ordinary shares at times when our management believes it may be beneficial for our business, our Supervisory Board authorized the repurchase of up to 6,500,000 of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the open market (including block trades that satisfy the safe harbor provisions of Rule 10b-18 pursuant to the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. This share repurchase authorization expires on May 7, 2015, and we may suspend or discontinue the repurchase program at any time. Our Supervisory Board approved this new repurchase program pursuant to the authorization we received from our shareholders in November 2013, and this new program replaces the previous repurchase program approved by our Supervisory Board, which expired on May 8, 2014. Of the 1,044,136 shares purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2014, 76,262 shares were purchased as part of the previous Supervisory Board-approved program prior to its expiration on May 8, 2014.

(2) Average price paid per share includes commissions paid in connection with our publicly announced share purchase program.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to and those discussed in the section of this Report titled “Risk Factors”.

Executive Overview

Through the use of our propriety software and principles of world-class manufacturing, we produce large volumes of individually small, customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, apparel and similar products. We market to customers under the Vistaprint brand, as well as several brands through our Albumprinter, Webs, People & Print Group and Pixartprinting businesses. These brands serve the needs of various market segments including resellers, small and medium businesses with differentiated service needs, and consumers purchasing products for personal use.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we reported revenue of $1,270.2 million representing 9% reported revenue growth over the prior year and 8% growth in constant-currency terms. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 we acquired People & Print Group and Pixartprinting, two companies that help us reach differentiated customers through distinct brands, and that we believe will give us access to a broader product offering over time. Excluding these acquisitions, our reported revenue growth was 5% and our constant-currency revenue growth was 4% compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

We believe our current revenue growth rate remains below our historical levels because we are in the midst of a major transformation of our customer value proposition in our largest business, the Vistaprint brand. This multi-year transformation began in 2011 and is intended to improve customer loyalty and long-term returns through improvements to pricing consistency and transparency, site experience, customer communications, product selection, product quality, merchandising, marketing messaging and customer service. Some of these efforts in 2014 created near-term revenue headwinds as we have moved toward industry-standard marketing and merchandising approaches, reduced our use of free and deep discount promotions as tools for customer acquisition and retention, and reduced our advertising spend as a percentage of revenue and in absolute dollars. In addition, we have driven consistent pricing and discount levels across our advertising channels in three of our largest revenue-generating markets, compared to our prior practice of offering different pricing and discount levels by channel, which had the effect of changing the return profile of certain advertising channels. The combination of these initiatives impacted new and repeat order volumes during the year, although they also contributed to an increase in our average order value. We remain confident that these efforts will drive long-term value, as evidenced by increases in our customer Net Promoter Score™¹ around the world, and improvements in gross profit per customer and repeat order rates in the test market in which we made similar changes over two years ago.

Diluted earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 2014 increased 51% to $1.28 as compared to the prior year. This increase was driven by efforts to improve the per customer economics in our Vistaprint brand, resulting in advertising leverage, as well as continued efforts to drive efficiency and effectiveness in manufacturing and administrative areas of our business. These areas of leverage were partially offset by investments in product quality and selection and software development. We have been successful in improving profitability and expanding our margins despite the $12.7 million loss on the sale of our investment in Namex and its related companies and approximately $5.9 million in transaction costs relating to our portfolio of investments during fiscal 2014. We believe our investments over the past three years, as well as our recently acquired businesses, will collectively enable us to scale and strengthen our competitive position and enhance long-term shareholder value.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). To apply these principles, we must make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. In some instances, we reasonably could have used different accounting estimates and, in other instances, changes in the

1 - Net Promoter Score is based on a direct question: How likely is it that you would recommend Vistaprint to a friend or colleague? The scoring for this answer is based on a 0 to 10 scale.

accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable at the time under the circumstances, and we evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We refer to accounting estimates and judgments of this type as critical accounting policies and estimates, which we discuss further below. This section should be read in conjunction with Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," of our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Revenue Recognition. We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipping of customized manufactured products, as well as providing digital services, website design and hosting, email marketing services, and order referral fees. We recognize revenue arising from sales of products and services, net of discounts and applicable indirect taxes, when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a product has been shipped or service rendered with no significant post-delivery obligation on our part, the net sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. For arrangements with multiple deliverables, we allocate revenue to each deliverable based on the relative selling price for each deliverable. We determine the relative selling price using a hierarchy of (1) company specific objective and reliable evidence, then (2) third-party evidence, then (3) best estimate of selling price. Shipping, handling and processing charges billed to customers are included in revenue at the time of shipment or rendering of service. Revenues from sales of prepaid orders on our websites are deferred until shipment of fulfilled orders or until the prepaid service has been rendered. For promotions through discount voucher websites, we recognize revenue on a gross basis, as we are the primary obligor, when redeemed items are shipped. The revenue for a significant portion of our unredeemed vouchers remains deferred as of June 30, 2014, as we establish sufficient historical redemption information with our customer base.

A reserve for estimated sales returns and allowances is recorded as a reduction of revenue, based on historical experience or specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve. This reserve is dependent upon customer return practices and will vary during the year due to volume or specific reserve requirements. Sales returns have not historically been significant to our net revenue and have been within our estimates.

Advertising Expense. We rely heavily on our advertising and marketing efforts in order to promote our products and services to generate revenue growth. Advertising costs, including production related items, are expensed when the costs are incurred. At each balance sheet date, we make estimates of advertising spend that has not yet been invoiced. The accuracy of those estimates depends on sufficient data from our global marketing partners and generally involves a high volume of transactions. We perform extensive analysis on our historical estimates relative to actual performance; however, based on the volume and significance of our marketing spend in any period, these estimates require judgment to recognize the appropriate expense during the period. As of June 30, 2014, we had $19.3 million recorded as an accrued liability for advertising costs.

Share-Based Compensation. We measure share-based compensation costs at fair value, including estimated forfeitures, and recognize the expense over the period that the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to measure the fair value of most of our share options and use a lattice model to measure the fair value of share options with a market condition, as well as the subsidiary share option liability award granted in conjunction with the Pixartprinting acquisition. The Black-Scholes model requires significant estimates related to the award’s expected life and future share price volatility of the underlying equity security. The lattice model considers market condition attributes in its valuation assessment where relevant and simulates various sources of uncertainty in order to determine an average value based on the range of resultant outcomes. The lattice model requires estimation of inputs such as future share price volatility, future operating performance, and a forfeiture rate assessment. The fair value of restricted share units and restricted share awards is determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of our ordinary shares on the date of the grant. In determining the amount of expense to be recorded, we also estimate forfeiture rates for all awards based on historical experience to reflect the probability that employees will complete the required service period. Employee retention patterns could vary in the future and result in a change to our estimated forfeiture rate which would directly impact share-based compensation expense. As a measure of sensitivity, a 100 basis point change in our forfeiture rate estimate would have resulted in an immaterial impact on our consolidated statement of operations for all periods.

For awards with a performance condition vesting feature, when achievement of the performance condition is deemed probable, we recognize compensation cost on a graded-vesting basis over the awards' expected vesting

periods. Management continually monitors the probability of vesting that is impacted by the achievement of certain business targets and milestones. Independent factors such as market acceptance, technological feasibility or economic market volatility could impact the achievement of such awards and contribute to variability in management's estimate and the recognition of the underlying share-based compensation expense. As the recognition of the compensation expense is reliant upon management's estimate of the likelihood of achievement of the award, if the probability increases during any given period, the compensation cost associated with that award would be accelerated in order to match the estimated outcome. These changes in estimate could result in expense volatility.

Income Taxes. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current tax expense, including assessing the risks associated with tax positions, together with assessing temporary and permanent differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when we expect temporary differences to reverse. We assess the ability to realize our deferred tax assets based upon the weight of available evidence both positive and negative. To the extent we believe that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, we establish a valuation allowance. Our estimates can vary due to the profitability mix of jurisdictions, foreign exchange movements, changes in tax law, regulations or accounting principles, as well as certain discrete items. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates or we adjust our estimates in the future, we may need to increase or decrease income tax expense, which could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

We establish reserves for tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. These reserves are established when we believe that certain positions might be challenged despite our belief that our tax return positions are in accordance with applicable tax laws. We adjust these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the closing of a tax audit, new tax legislation, or the change of an estimate based on new information. To the extent that the final outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will affect the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made. Interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the provision for income taxes.

Software and Website Development Costs. We capitalize eligible salaries and payroll-related costs of employees who devote time to the development of our websites and internal-use computer software. Capitalization begins when the preliminary project stage is complete, management with the relevant authority authorizes and commits to the funding of the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, which we revised in fiscal 2013 from two years to three years. This change in estimated useful life increased our pre-tax income for fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 by approximately $2.7 million when compared to the historical estimated useful life. Our judgment is required in determining whether a project provides new or additional functionality, the point at which various projects enter the stages at which costs may be capitalized, assessing the ongoing value and impairment of the capitalized costs, and determining the estimated useful lives over which the costs are amortized. Historically we have not had any significant impairments of our capitalized software and website development costs.

Business Combinations. We recognize the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on detailed cash flow valuations that use information and assumptions provided by management. The valuations are dependent upon a myriad of factors including historical financial results, estimated customer renewal rates, projected operating costs and discount rates. We estimate the fair value of contingent consideration at the time of the acquisition using all pertinent information known to us at the time to assess the probability of payment of contingent amounts. We allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed to goodwill. The assumptions used in our valuations for the acquisition of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting during fiscal 2014 may differ materially from actual results depending on performance of the acquired businesses and other factors. While we believe the assumptions used were appropriate, different assumptions in the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed could have a material impact on the timing and extent of impact on our statements of operations.

Goodwill is assigned to reporting units as of the date of the related acquisition. If goodwill is assigned to more than one reporting unit, we utilize a method that is consistent with the manner in which the amount of goodwill in a business combination is determined. Costs related to the acquisition of a business are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets, and Other Definite Lived Long-Lived Assets. We evaluate goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. For our annual impairment test as of January 1, 2014, we considered the timing of the most recent fair value assessment (January 1, 2013), the operating results of the reporting units as compared to the cash flow forecast used in the fiscal 2013 quantitative analysis, an assessment of our overall market capitalization as compared to our consolidated net assets, and the consideration of market or economic events that could be indicative of impairment. Our qualitative assessment for fiscal 2014 determined that there was no indication that the carrying value of any of our reporting units exceeded its fair value. In addition, there have been no indications of impairment that would require an updated analysis as of June 30, 2014. In addition to the specific factors mentioned above, we assess the following individual factors on an ongoing basis such as:


•	A significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate;


•	An adverse action or assessment by a regulator;


•	Unanticipated competition;


•	A loss of key personnel; and


•	A more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed of.

If the results of the qualitative analysis were to indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the quantitative test is required. Under the quantitative approach, we estimate the fair values of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flows are based on our strategic plans and best estimates of revenue growth and operating profit by each reporting unit. Our annual analysis requires significant judgment, including the identification and aggregation of reporting units, discount rate and perpetual growth rate assumptions, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. While we believe our assumptions are reasonable, actual results could differ from our projections.

We are required to re-evaluate the estimated useful lives on an ongoing basis and evaluate the recoverability of definite lived long-lived assets, which include, among other items, customer relationships, developed technology, property, and equipment, when indicators of impairment are present. For purposes of the recoverability test, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The test for recoverability compares the undiscounted future cash flows of the long-lived asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying values of the long-lived asset group exceed the undiscounted future cash flows, the assets are considered to be potentially impaired. The next step in the impairment measurement process is to determine the fair value of the individual net assets within the long-lived asset group. If the aggregate fair values of the individual net assets of the group are less than the carrying values, an impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the aggregate carrying value of the group over the aggregate fair value. The loss is allocated to each long-lived asset within the group based on their relative carrying values, with no asset reduced below its fair value. The identification and evaluation of a potential impairment requires judgment and is subject to change if events or circumstances pertaining to our business change.

Revenue

We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipping of customized manufactured products, and by providing digital services, website design and hosting, email marketing services, as well as a small percentage from order referral fees and other third-party offerings.

We seek to increase our revenue by increasing the number of customers who purchase from us (“unique active customers”), as well as the amount our customers spend on our offerings (“average bookings per unique active customer”). We use the combination of unique active customers and average bookings per unique active customer to describe our revenue performance as this approach is aligned with the way we manage our business and our efforts to increase our revenue. Although these metrics currently exclude our People & Print Group and Pixartprinting acquisitions, we continue to believe that metrics relating to our unique active customers and average bookings per unique active customer offer shareholders a useful means of assessing our execution against our strategy. Because changes in one of these metrics may be offset by changes in the other metric, no single factor is determinative of our revenue and profitability trends, and we assess them together to understand their overall impact on revenue and profitability. A number of factors influence our ability to drive increases in these metrics:

•

Unique active customers. The consolidated unique active customer count is the number of individual customers who purchased from us in a given period, with no regard to the frequency of purchase. For example, if a single customer makes two distinct purchases within a twelve-month period or is a distinct customer purchasing from Vistaprint and Albumprinter, that customer is tallied only once in the unique active customer count. We determine the uniqueness of a customer by looking at certain customer data, specifically a customer's unique email address. Unique active customers are driven by both the number of new customers we acquire, as well as our ability to retain customers after their first purchase. During our early growth phase, we focused more resources on the acquisition of new customers through the value of our offering and our broad-based marketing efforts targeted at the mass market for micro business customers. As we have grown larger, our acquisition focus has been supplemented with expanded retention efforts, such as email offers, customer service, and expanding our product offering. Our unique active

customer count has grown significantly over the years, and we expect it will continue to grow as we see additional opportunity to drive both new customer acquisitions as well as increased retention rates. A retained customer is any unique customer in a specific period who has also purchased in any prior period.

•

Average bookings per unique active customer. Average bookings per unique active customer are total bookings, which represents the value of total customer orders received on our websites, for a given period of time divided by the total number of unique active customers, regardless of brand, who purchased during that same period of time. We seek to increase average bookings per unique active customer as a means of increasing revenue. Average bookings per unique active customer are influenced by the frequency that a customer purchases from us, the number of products and feature upgrades a customer purchases in a given period, as well as the mix of tenured customers versus new customers within the unique active customer count, as tenured customers tend to purchase more than new customers. Average bookings per unique active customer have grown over a multi-year period, though they do sometimes fluctuate from one quarter to the next depending upon the type of products we promote during a period and promotional discounts we offer. For example, among other things, seasonal product offerings, such as holiday cards, can cause changes in bookings per customer in our second fiscal quarter ended December 31.

Revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 increased 9% to $1,270.2 million compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 due to increases in sales across our product and service offerings, as well as revenue from the People & Print Group and Pixartprinting businesses that we acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 included as part of our European business. Excluding the People & Print Group and Pixartprinting businesses, we had 16.7 million unique active customers and our average order value for the period increased by 7%, contributing positively to our 9% reported revenue growth and 4% annual constant-currency revenue growth in fiscal 2014 excluding the impact of the 2014 acquisitions. During the third quarter, we rolled out significant pricing changes in two of our top markets: the U.S. and Germany. These changes are designed to help us improve customer lifetime value and loyalty over time, but created near-term revenue headwinds in North America and Europe for the second half of fiscal 2014, particularly in our third fiscal quarter. The North American business delivered annual reported and constant-currency revenue growth of 9% during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, as successful programs to drive customer value that we started two years ago helped to offset the negative impact of the pricing changes. The reported revenue of our European business increased 11% but declined 3% on a constant-currency basis excluding the impact of the 2014 acquisitions as we implemented changes to our customer value proposition and reduced certain advertising expenditures with lower returns to make more focused investments in the region. Most of World reported revenue declined 4% but grew 6% on a constant-currency basis in fiscal 2014 excluding the 2014 acquisitions, as compared to fiscal 2013.

Revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 increased 14% to $1,167.5 million compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 due to increases in sales across our product and service offerings in our business, including the revenue from the Albumprinter and Webs businesses that were included for only a portion of our fiscal 2012 results. The number of unique active customers, inclusive of our Albumprinter and Webs customer activity, increased by 13% to 17.0 million during fiscal 2013, contributing positively to our total reported revenue growth. The North American business continued to deliver a solid performance with 18% reported revenue growth and 17% constant-currency revenue growth excluding the impact of our acquisition of Albumprinter and Webs in fiscal 2012 (the "2012 acquisitions"), leveraging successful programs to drive customer value that we started two years ago. Our European business delivered 9% reported revenue growth but disappointing constant-currency revenue growth excluding the impact of the 2012 acquisitions of just 5% during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Most of World reported revenue growth declined to 16% from 44% for the prior comparative period, and to 17% from 38%, on a constant-currency basis, as we reached relative maturity in certain markets which comprise a majority of the region's revenue activity.

We monitor unique active customers and average bookings per unique active customer on a trailing twelve-month, or TTM, basis. We have historically reported these metrics for our Vistaprint-branded business only; however, in fiscal 2014 we began including the Albumprinter and Webs activity since their respective acquisition dates. We have revised the June 30, 2013 and 2012 information to include Albumprinter and Webs and presented it on a consolidated basis for comparative purposes. The consolidated unique active customer count is the number of individual customers who purchased from us in a given period, with no regards to the frequency of purchase. For the purposes of this consolidated presentation, a customer that has purchased from more than one of our brands is only counted once. New customers include those who purchased from any one of our brands for the first time in a given time period. Any existing Albumprinter or Webs customers prior to the 2012 acquisitions who placed an order

with us following their respective acquisition dates are counted as retained customers. The following table summarizes our operational revenue metrics for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 (including the 2012 acquisitions since their respective acquisition dates, but excluding the 2014 acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting):

(1) Constant-currency revenue growth, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the change in total revenue between current and prior year periods at constant-currency exchange rates by translating all non-U.S. dollar denominated revenue generated in the current period using the prior year period’s average exchange rate for each currency to the U.S. dollar and excludes the impact of gains or losses on effective currency hedges recognized in revenue. We have provided these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Constant-currency revenue growth excluding acquisitions excludes revenue results for our Q4 2014 acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting.

(2) Constant-currency revenue growth excluding acquisitions excludes revenue results of the fiscal 2012 acquisitions of Albumprinter Holding B.V. on October 31, 2011 and Webs, Inc. on December 28, 2011.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue includes materials used to manufacture our products, payroll and related expenses for production personnel, depreciation of assets used in the production process and in support of digital marketing service offerings, shipping, handling and processing costs, third-party production costs, costs of free products and other related costs of products sold by us. Cost of revenue as a percent of revenue increased during fiscal 2014 as the People & Print Group and Pixartprinting operations we acquired in fiscal 2014 have a lower gross margin profile than our traditional business; however, these companies have lower marketing and selling costs.

The increase in cost of revenue of $50.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the prior period, was primarily due to additional manufacturing costs of $29.7 million associated with the acquired People & Print Group and Pixartprinting operations. Excluding those costs, cost of revenue generally increased as we produced more revenue volume in fiscal 2014 as compared to fiscal 2013. We incurred incremental shipping and overhead related costs in fiscal 2014 of $3.6 million and $9.7 million, respectively. These expense increases were offset by a decline in materials related costs of $1.1 million and other productivity and efficiency gains. In addition, the fiscal 2013 period included a benefit from a non-cash gain related to a free piece of equipment of $1.4 million in our European operations that did not occur in fiscal 2014.

The $45.1 million increase in cost of revenue from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2013 was primarily due to additional manufacturing costs for increased product sales. Specifically, we incurred additional expense of $26.5 million for material and overhead related costs, as well as $7.2 million of shipping cost during the year ending June 30, 2013 as compared to the prior period. Cost of revenue also increased by $9.9 million in fiscal 2013 as Albumprinter and Webs were only included for a portion of our fiscal 2012 results. These fiscal 2013 expense increases were offset by a $1.4 million benefit from a non-cash gain related to a free piece of equipment.

Technology and development expense

Technology and development expense consists primarily of payroll and related expenses for our employees engaged in software and manufacturing engineering, information technology operations, content development, amortization of capitalized software, website development costs and certain acquired intangible assets, including developed technology, hosting of our websites, asset depreciation, patent amortization, legal settlements in connection with patent-related claims, and other technology infrastructure-related costs. Depreciation expense for information technology equipment that directly supports the delivery of our digital marketing services products is included in cost of revenue.

The growth in our technology and development expenses of $11.5 million for fiscal 2014 was primarily due to increased payroll and facility-related costs of $9.5 million as a result of an increase in headcount in our technology development and information technology support organizations. At June 30, 2014, we employed 887 employees in these organizations compared to 786 employees at June 30, 2013. Other technology and development expenses increased $4.0 million in fiscal 2014 as compared to the prior comparative period primarily due to restructuring charges of $1.3 million as well as increased recruitment, hosting services and other costs related to continued investment in our infrastructure. In addition, amortization expense increased by $1.1 million as a result of the People & Print Group and Pixartprinting acquisitions. These expense increases were partially offset

during fiscal 2014 by a decline in share-based compensation expense of $2.1 million as the restricted share awards granted as part of our fiscal 2012 Webs acquisition were fully vested as of December 31, 2013. Also during fiscal 2014, we had higher net capitalization of software costs of $1.0 million due to an increase in current costs that qualified for capitalization during the fiscal year.

The growth in our technology and development expenses of $35.7 million for fiscal 2013 as compared to fiscal 2012, was primarily due to increased payroll and facility-related costs of $30.0 million as a result of a planned increase in headcount in our technology development and information technology support organizations. At June 30, 2013, we employed 786 employees in these organizations compared to 657 employees at June 30, 2012. Share-based compensation expense attributable to technology and development personnel in fiscal 2013 increased by $4.0 million as compared to fiscal 2012 partially due to a full period of expense associated with restricted shares granted as part of the Webs acquisition. In addition, other technology and development expenses increased $6.1 million as compared to the prior comparative period due to increased employee travel and training costs, recruitment costs, and increased depreciation, hosting services, and other costs related to continued investment in our website infrastructure. These expense increases were partially offset by decreased expense related to capitalized software costs of $5.7 million, due in part to our change in the estimated useful life of our capitalized software and website development costs from 2 to 3 years of $2.7 million as discussed in Note 2 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as an increase in net capitalization of qualifying costs during the fiscal year. Fiscal 2013 included $1.3 million of additional amortization of acquired developed technology assets from the acquisitions of Albumprinter and Webs as compared to fiscal 2012.

Marketing and selling expense

Marketing and selling expense consists primarily of advertising and promotional costs; payroll and related expenses for our employees engaged in marketing, sales, customer support and public relations activities; amortization of certain acquired intangible assets, including customer relationships and trade names; and third-party payment processing fees.

The decrease in our marketing and selling expenses of $5.8 million for fiscal 2014 as compared to fiscal 2013 was primarily due to decreased advertising costs of $19.5 million as we executed more strategically focused marketing spend during the year, particularly in Europe. Additionally, share-based compensation expense decreased during fiscal 2014 by $1.3 million as the restricted share awards granted as part of our fiscal 2012 Webs acquisition were fully vested at December 31, 2013. This reduction in expense was partially offset by increased payroll and facility-related costs of $6.9 million as we continued to expand our marketing organization and our customer service, sales and design support centers. At June 30, 2014, we employed 2,038 employees in these organizations compared to 1,672 employees at June 30, 2013. In addition, other marketing and selling expenses increased by $6.1 million, inclusive of $1.3 million of restructuring related expenses, as well as increased outside service costs, payment processing fees, and other marketing costs. Fiscal 2014 also includes $2.0 million of additional amortization expense for the customer and trademark related intangible assets acquired with the People & Print Group and Pixartprinting businesses.

The growth in our marketing and selling expenses of $70.6 million for fiscal 2013 as compared to fiscal 2012 was driven primarily by increases of $34.4 million in advertising costs and commissions related to new customer acquisition and promotions targeted at our existing customer base, an integral component of our long-term growth strategy in fiscal 2013. We continued to expand our marketing organization and our customer service, sales and design support centers, and at June 30, 2013, we employed 1,672 employees in these organizations compared to 1,515 employees at June 30, 2012, resulting in increased payroll and facility-related costs in fiscal 2013, when compared to fiscal 2012, of $24.8 million. For fiscal 2013, share-based compensation costs attributable to marketing and selling personnel increased $3.7 million as compared to fiscal 2012 due primarily to a change in the functional classification of a portion of the share-based compensation expense to selling and marketing expense in fiscal 2013 as a result of a change in role by certain employees, as well as a full period of expense associated with restricted shares granted as part of the Webs acquisition. Other marketing and selling expenses also increased by $4.4 million due to increased depreciation costs, payment processing fees, and professional fees. Furthermore, fiscal 2013 includes increased amortization expense of $3.3 million as compared to fiscal 2012 from acquired customer and brand name intangible assets related to the acquisitions of Albumprinter and Webs partly due to an acceleration of $1.4 million associated with a change in the expected usage of an asset, in addition to a full annual period of expense in fiscal 2013 related to the Albumprinter and Webs acquisitions.

General and administrative expense

General and administrative expense consists primarily of transaction costs, including third-party professional fees, insurance and payroll and related expenses of employees involved in executive management, finance, legal, and human resources.

During fiscal 2014 our general and administrative expenses increased as compared to fiscal 2013 by $6.5 million, primarily due to an increase of $5.9 million in professional fees for costs incurred related to our recent acquisitions and strategic investments, as well as $3.2 million of employee and facility related restructuring costs. In addition, we recognized $2.2 million of expense for the increase in the fair value of the earn-out liability for both People & Print Group and Pixartprinting since the date of acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a net decrease of $4.8 million primarily related to reduced share-based compensation, recruiting costs, and other corporate charges. At June 30, 2014 we employed 416 employees in these organizations compared to 400 employees at June 30, 2013.

During fiscal 2013, our general and administrative expenses increased as compared to fiscal 2012 by $4.9 million, primarily due to increased payroll and facility-related costs of $6.1 million resulting from the continued investment in our executive management, finance, legal and human resource organizations to support our expansion and growth. At June 30, 2013, we employed 400 employees in these organizations compared to 369 employees at June 30, 2012. These additional payroll related costs were offset by a $1.2 million decrease in professional fees, as the fiscal 2012 comparable period included transaction costs associated with our Albumprinter and Webs acquisitions. Additionally, fiscal 2012 included expenses associated with a patent infringement trial, which did not recur in fiscal 2013, as well as certain one-time termination benefits.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net generally consists of gains and losses from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions or balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of our subsidiaries, as well as the realized and unrealized gains and losses on our derivative instruments. In addition, in fiscal 2014 we recognized a loss of $12.7 million on the sale of our equity investment in Namex.

In addition to the Namex loss noted above, we incurred $8.9 million of currency related expense for fiscal 2014, as compared to $0.1 million of expense for fiscal 2013. The increased expense is primarily due to the net loss of $7.5 million recognized on our currency forward contracts for which we did not seek hedge accounting and that did not occur in fiscal 2013. This expense was substantially offset by favorable currency impacts within operating income. In evaluating our currency hedging program and ability to achieve hedge accounting in light of certain changes in our legal entity cash flows, we considered the benefits of hedge accounting relative to the additional economic cost of trade execution and administrative burden. Based on this analysis, we decided to execute currency forward contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting. As a result, during fiscal 2014, we experienced increased volatility within other (expense), net in our consolidated statements of operations from unrealized gains and losses on the mark-to-market of outstanding currency forward contracts. We expect this volatility to continue in future periods for contracts for which we do not apply hedge accounting.

In addition, changes in our corporate entity operating structure, effective on October 1, 2013, required us to alter our intercompany transactional and financing activities. We have significant non-functional currency intercompany financing relationships that result in increased currency exchange rate losses of $1.5 million, both realized and unrealized, during fiscal 2014. We may continue to experience increased volatility in exchange rate gains and losses in future periods as a result of these changes.

Other income (expense) for fiscal 2012 was $2.4 million of income, primarily related to a gain in the period from Euro currency transactions related to the funding of the Albumprinter acquisition.

Interest income (expense), net

Interest income (expense), net, primarily consists of interest paid to financial institutions on outstanding balances on our credit facility and amortization of debt issuance costs of $7.7 million, $5.3 million, $1.7 million for fiscal 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in interest income (expense), net in each fiscal period as compared to the prior fiscal period is a result of increased borrowing levels under our credit facility throughout the respective years.

Income tax provision



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014			2013			2012
Income tax provision	$	10,590		$	9,387		$	11,851
Effective tax rate	18.7		%	23.0		%	21.2		%

Income tax expense for fiscal 2013 included a one-time currency exchange related tax benefit of $1.9 million recognized by one of our Canadian subsidiaries. Excluding this one-time benefit, income tax expense would have been lower in fiscal 2014 as compared to fiscal 2013 primarily attributable to tax benefits resulting from changes to our corporate entity operating structure that became effective on October 1, 2013, as further described below.

On an annual basis, our income tax expense for the majority of our subsidiaries is a function of our operating expenses and cost-based transfer pricing methodologies and not a function of consolidated pre-tax income. As a result, our consolidated annual effective tax rate will typically vary inversely to changes in our consolidated pre-tax income. For fiscal 2014, we had a lower consolidated annual effective tax rate as compared to fiscal 2013, primarily as a result of higher consolidated pre-tax earnings in fiscal 2014 as compared to fiscal 2013 plus tax benefits resulting from changes to our corporate entity operating structure in fiscal 2014, described below.

On October 1, 2013, we made changes to our corporate entity operating structure, including transferring our intellectual property among certain of our subsidiaries, primarily to align our corporate entities with our evolving operations and business model. The transfer of assets occurred between wholly owned legal entities within the Vistaprint group that are based in different tax jurisdictions. The impact of the transfer is recognized for income tax purposes only and not in our consolidated financial statements. As the impact of the transfer was the result of an intra-entity transaction, any resulting gain or loss and immediate tax impact on the transfer is eliminated and not recognized in the consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The transferor entity recognized a gain on the transfer of assets that was not subject to income tax in its local jurisdiction. However, the recipient entity will receive a tax benefit associated with the future amortization of the fair market value of the intellectual property received, which for tax purposes will occur over a period of five years in accordance with the applicable tax laws.

We are currently under income tax audits in various jurisdictions. We believe that our income tax reserves associated with these matters are adequate as the positions reported on our tax returns will be sustained on their technical merits. However, final resolution is uncertain and there is a possibility that it could have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 14 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.

Loss in Equity Interest

In July 2012, we made an investment in Namex, which included a Chinese printing business, for a minority ownership position. Our share of Namex's loss for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $2.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively. We disposed of our investment in April 2014 and recognized a loss of $12.7 million in other income (expense), net. See Note 15 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.

At June 30, 2014, we had $62.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $448.1 million of outstanding debt. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $12.4 million during fiscal 2014. The cash flows during the year ended June 30, 2014 related primarily to the following items:

Cash inflows:


•	Net income of $43.3 million;


•	Positive adjustments to accrual based net income for non-cash items of $102.2 million primarily related to depreciation and amortization of $72.3 million and share-based compensation costs of $27.8 million;


•	Proceeds from borrowing of debt of $482.8 million; and


•	Changes in working capital balances of $3.1 million.

Cash outflows:


•	Capital expenditures of $72.1 million of which $35.3 million were related to the purchase of manufacturing and automation equipment for our production facilities, $15.4 million were related to the purchase of computer equipment, and $21.4 million were related to purchases of other capital assets, including facility improvements and office equipment;


•	Repayments of debt and debt issuance costs of $274.9 million;


•	Payments for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, of $216.4 million;


•	Purchases of our ordinary shares of $42.0 million;


•	Internal costs for software and website development that we have capitalized of $9.7 million; and


•	Increased equity investment in Namex of $5.0 million.

Additional Liquidity and Capital Resources Information. During fiscal 2014, we financed our operations, ordinary share purchases and strategic investments through internally generated cash flows from operations and our debt financing. We currently plan to invest approximately $80 million to $100 million in total capital expenditures in fiscal 2015. The majority of planned fiscal 2015 capital investments are designed to support the planned long-term growth of the business. In fiscal 2015, we expect to spend approximately $20 million to build a new manufacturing facility in Japan as part of our joint venture. We also are investing approximately $20 million to $25 million in the expansion of our product selection and other new manufacturing capabilities. Due to our investments in recent years, our current liabilities continue to exceed our current assets; however, we believe that our available cash, cash flows generated from operations, and our debt financing capacity will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital and planned investments to support our long-term growth strategy, including investments and capital expenditure requirements, for the foreseeable future.

As of June 30, 2014, approximately $62.0 million of our cash and cash equivalents was held by our subsidiaries, and undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries that are considered to be indefinitely reinvested were $112.5 million. However, we do not intend to repatriate such funds as the cash and cash equivalent balances are generally used and available, without legal restrictions, to fund ordinary business operations and investments of the respective subsidiaries. If there is a change in the future, the repatriation of undistributed earnings from certain subsidiaries, in the form of dividends or otherwise, could have tax consequences that could result in material cash outflows.

Debt. On January 17, 2014, we entered into an amendment to our credit agreement resulting in an increase to aggregate loan commitments under the credit agreement by $303.8 million, to a total of $800.0 million, by adding new lenders and increasing the commitments of several existing lenders. The new loan commitments consist of revolving loans of $640.0 million and term loans of $160.0 million. The amendment did not result in any material changes to our debt covenants.

In the next twelve months we will continue to use, as needed, our revolving credit facility or additional sources of borrowings in order to fund our ongoing operations, support our long-term growth through strategic investments, or purchase our ordinary shares. We have other financial obligations that constitute additional indebtedness based on the definitions within the credit facility. As of June 30, 2014, the amount available for borrowing under our credit facility was as follows:

Amount available for borrowing as of June 30, 2014 (2)	$	172,068

_________________

(1) Our borrowing ability can be limited by our debt covenants each quarter. These covenants may limit our borrowing capacity depending on our leverage, other indebtedness, such as uncommitted lines of credit, installment obligations, capital leases, deferred purchase prices, and letters of credit, and other factors that are outlined in the credit agreement.

(2) The use of available borrowings for share purchases, dividend payments, or corporate acquisitions and dispositions is subject to more restrictive covenants that lower available borrowings for such purposes relative to the general availability described in the above table.

Debt Covenants. Our credit agreement contains financial and other covenants, including but not limited to the following:

(1) The credit agreement contains financial covenants calculated on a trailing twelve month, or TTM, basis that:


•	our consolidated leverage ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated indebtedness () to our TTM consolidated EBITDA (), will not exceed 3.25 during the period from March 31, 2014 through December 31, 2014; and (iii) 3.0 after March 31, 2015; and


•	our interest coverage ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated EBITDA to our consolidated interest expense, will be at least 3.0.

(2) Purchases of our ordinary shares, payments of dividends, and corporate acquisitions and dispositions are subject to more restrictive consolidated leverage ratio thresholds than those listed above when calculated on a proforma basis in certain scenarios. Also, regardless of our leverage ratio, the credit agreement limits the amount of purchases of our ordinary shares, payments of dividends, corporate acquisitions and dispositions, investments in joint ventures or minority interests, and consolidated capital expenditures that we may make. These limitations can include annual limits that vary from year-to-year and aggregate limits over the term of the credit facility. Therefore, our ability to make desired investments may be limited during the term of our revolving credit facility.

(3) The credit agreement also places limitations on additional indebtedness and liens that we may incur, as well as certain intercompany activities.

(*) The definitions of EBITDA and consolidated indebtedness are contained in the credit agreement included as an exhibit to our Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2013, as amended by amendment no. 1 to the credit agreement included as an exhibit to our Form 8-K filed on January 22, 2014.

As of the date of this filing, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants under the credit agreement.

In addition, on March 28, 2014 we entered into an agreement for an uncommitted line of credit with Santander Bank, N.A. Under the terms of the agreement we may borrow up to $50 million at any time, with a maturity date of up to 90 days from the loan origination date. Under the terms of our uncommitted line of credit, borrowings bear interest at a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus 1.10%. The LIBOR rate is determined on the date of borrowing and is based on the length of the specific loan. This facility does not provide borrowing capacity incremental to the amount available for borrowing as of June 30, 2014 disclosed above.

___________________

(1) We may be required to make cash outlays related to our uncertain tax positions. However, due to the uncertainty of the timing of future cash flows associated with our uncertain tax positions, we are unable to make reasonably reliable estimates of the period of cash settlement, if any, with the respective taxing authorities. Accordingly, uncertain tax positions of $6.7 million as of June 30, 2014 have been excluded from the contractual obligations table above. For further information on uncertain tax positions, see Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Operating Leases. We rent office space under operating leases expiring on various dates through 2024. Future minimum rental payments required under our leases are an aggregate of approximately $50.5 million. The terms of certain lease agreements require security deposits in the form of bank guarantees and a letter of credit in the amount of $0.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Build-to-suit lease. In July 2013, we executed a lease for an eleven-year term to move our Lexington, Massachusetts operations to a new facility in Waltham, Massachusetts, that is expected to commence in the second half of calendar 2015. Please refer to Note 6 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Purchase Commitments. At June 30, 2014, we had unrecorded commitments under contract of $30.9 million, which were composed of inventory purchase commitments of approximately $12.0 million, production and computer equipment purchases of approximately $9.6 million, and other unrecorded purchase commitments of $9.3 million.

Debt. The term loans outstanding under our credit agreement have repayments due on various dates through February 8, 2018, with the revolving loans due on February 8, 2018. Interest payable included in this table is based on the interest rate as of June 30, 2014 and assumes all revolving loan amounts outstanding will not be paid until maturity, but that the term loan amortization payments will be made according to our defined schedule.

Capital leases. We lease certain machinery and plant equipment under capital lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2017. The aggregate carrying value of the leased equipment under capital leases included in property, plant and equipment, net in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014, is $12.6 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $1.0 million; the present value of lease installments not yet due included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014 amounts to $8.9 million.

Other Obligations. Other obligations include an installment obligation of $16.6 million related to the fiscal 2012 intra-entity transfer of Webs' intellectual property, which results in tax being paid over a 7.5 year term and has been classified as a deferred tax liability in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014. Other obligations also include the fair value of the contingent earn-out payments related to our fiscal 2014 acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting of $16.1 million. The Pixartprinting liability is based on calendar 2014 revenue and EBITDA targets and is payable in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The People & Print Group liability is payable during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and is contingent upon the achievement of an initial 2014 EBITDA margin threshold but ultimately payable based on achieving certain revenue and EBITDA results for calendar year 2015. Please refer to Note 8 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk. Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our cash, cash equivalents and debt. As of June 30, 2014, our cash and cash equivalents consisted of standard depository accounts which are held for working capital purposes. Due to the nature of our cash and cash equivalents, we do not believe we have a material exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

As of June 30, 2014, we had $448.1 million of total U.S. dollar denominated variable rate debt and $16.6 million of variable rate installment obligation related to the fiscal 2012 intra-entity transfer of Webs' intellectual property. As a result, we have exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates related to these obligations. In order to mitigate our exposure to interest rate changes related to our variable rate debt, we execute interest rate swap contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of our outstanding long-term debt with varying maturities. As of June 30, 2014, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in rates, inclusive of our outstanding interest rate swaps, would result in an increase of interest expense of approximately $2.2 million over the next 12 months.

Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We conduct business in multiple currencies through our worldwide operations but report our financial results in U.S. dollars. Our international revenues, as well as costs and expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, expose us to the risk of fluctuations in exchange rates of such currencies versus the U.S. dollar. Our most significant net currency exposures are the British pound, Canadian dollar and Swiss Franc, although our exposures to these and other currencies fluctuate, particularly in our fiscal second quarter. A summary of our currency risk is as follows:

•

Translation of our non-U.S. dollar revenues and expenses: Revenue and related expenses generated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar could result in higher or lower net income when, upon consolidation, those transactions are translated to U.S. dollars. When the value or timing of revenue and expenses in a given currency are materially different, we may be exposed to significant impacts on our net income.

We use currency forward contracts to protect or mitigate our forecasted U.S. dollar-equivalent cash flows from adverse changes in currency exchange rates. These hedging contracts reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the impact of adverse currency exchange rate movements. We have executed currency forward contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting. As a result, we may experience volatility in our consolidated statements of operations due to (i) the impact of unrealized gains and losses reported in other income (expense), net on the mark-to-market of outstanding contracts and (ii) realized gains and losses recognized in other income (expense), net, whereas the offsetting gains and losses are reported in the line item of the underlying cash flow, for example, revenue. For example, in fiscal 2014 we had realized and unrealized losses from currency forward contracts of $7.5 million, which were largely offset within operating income.

•

Translation of our non-U.S. dollar assets and liabilities: Each of our subsidiaries translates its assets and liabilities to U.S. dollars at current rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting gains and losses from translation are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet. Fluctuations in exchange rates can materially impact the carrying value of our assets and liabilities.

•

Remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities: Transaction gains and losses generated from remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of a subsidiary are included in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations. Our subsidiaries have intercompany accounts that are eliminated in consolidation and cash and cash equivalents denominated in various currencies that expose us to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. A hypothetical 10% change in currency exchange rates was applied to total net monetary assets denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies at the balance sheet dates to compute the impact these changes would have had on our income before taxes in the near term. A hypothetical decrease in exchange rates of 10% against the functional currency of our subsidiaries would have resulted in an increase of $10.1 million, $2.5 million and $2.1 million on our income before taxes for the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Changes in our corporate entity operating structure, effective on October 1, 2013, resulted in changes in our intercompany transactional and financing activities that may cause increased volatility in exchange rate gains and losses in future periods. Additionally, some of our subsidiaries prepare tax returns in currencies other than their functional currency.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years Ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Description of the Business

We are a technology and manufacturing-driven company that aggregates, via the Internet, large volumes of individually small, customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, apparel and similar products. We produce those orders in highly automated, capital and technology intensive production facilities in a manner that we believe makes our production techniques significantly more competitive than those of traditional suppliers. We bring our products to market via various brands that deliver marketing products and services to the small business and home and family markets. These brands include Vistaprint, our leading global brand for micro business marketing products and services, as well as several brands we have acquired that serve the needs of various market segments including resellers, small and medium businesses with differentiated service needs, and consumers purchasing products for personal use.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vistaprint N.V., its wholly owned subsidiaries, entities in which we maintain a controlling financial interest, and those entities in which we have a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which we can exercise significant influence, but do not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control, are accounted for using the equity method and are included as investments in equity interests on the consolidated balance sheets.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period consolidated financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We believe our most significant estimates are associated with the ongoing evaluation of the recoverability of our long-lived assets and goodwill, estimated useful lives of assets, advertising expense and related accruals, share-based compensation, accounting for business combinations, and income taxes and related valuation allowances, among others. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be the equivalent of cash for the purpose of balance sheet and statement of cash flows presentation. Cash equivalents consist of depository accounts and money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents restricted for use were $823 and $1,510 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Marketable Securities

We determine the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the date of purchase and reevaluate the classification at each balance sheet date. Our marketable securities are classified as "available-for-sale" and carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes if applicable, reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We review our investments for other-than-temporary impairment whenever the fair value of the investment is less than the amortized cost and evidence indicates that the investment's carrying amount is not recoverable within a reasonable period of time. Any decline in value that is determined to be other than temporary is recognized as expense in our consolidated statement of operations in the period the impairment is identified.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes amounts due from customers and partners. We offset gross trade accounts receivable with an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of raw materials and are recorded at the lower of cost or market value using a first-in, first-out method. Costs to produce free products are included in cost of revenues as incurred.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions and improvements that substantially extend the useful life of a particular asset are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Assets that qualify for the capitalization of interest cost during their construction period are evaluated on a per project basis and, if material, the costs are capitalized. No interest costs associated with our construction projects were capitalized in fiscal 2014 or 2013 as the amounts were not material. Depreciation of plant and equipment is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Software and Web Site Development Costs

We capitalize eligible salaries and payroll-related costs of employees who devote time to the development of websites and internal-use computer software. Capitalization begins when the preliminary project stage is complete, management with the relevant authority authorizes and commits to the funding of the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. As of July 1, 2012, we revised the estimated useful life of our capitalized software and website developments costs from 2 to 3 years based on an evaluation of historical trends, the period of benefit of past projects, and our current project portfolio. This change in estimated useful life increased our pre-tax income for fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 by approximately $2,718 when compared to the historical estimated useful life and could have a material impact in the future. Our basic and diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2013 increased by $0.08 due to this change in estimate. Costs associated with preliminary stage software development, repair, maintenance or the development of website content are expensed as incurred.

Amortization of previously capitalized amounts in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $4,985, $3,118 and $6,325, respectively, resulting in accumulated amortization of $13,538 and $10,315 at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Leases

We categorize leases at their inception as either operating or capital leases. Costs for operating leases that include incentives such as payment escalations or rent abatements are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Additionally, inducements received are treated as a reduction of our costs over the term of the agreement. Leasehold improvements are capitalized at cost and amortized over the shorter of their expected useful life or the life of the lease, excluding renewal periods.

Capital leases are accounted for as an acquisition of an asset and incurrence of an obligation. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease, and amortized over the useful life of the asset. The corresponding capital lease obligation is recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease. For further information on our outstanding capital lease assets and obligations please refer to Note 18 Commitments and Contingencies.

For lease arrangements where we are deemed to be involved in the construction of structural improvements prior to the commencement of the lease or take some level of construction risk, we are considered the owner of the assets during the construction period. Accordingly, as the lessor incurs the construction project costs, the assets and corresponding financial obligation are recorded in our consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2014, $18,117 is

included in property, plant and equipment, net and lease financing obligation. Once the construction is completed, if the lease meets certain “sale-leaseback” criteria, we will remove the asset and related financial obligation from the balance sheet and treat the building lease as either an operating or capital lease based on our assessment of the guidance. If upon completion of construction, the project does not meet the “sale-leaseback” criteria, the lease will be treated as a financing obligation and we will depreciate the asset over its estimated useful life for financial reporting purposes.

Intangible Assets

We capitalize the costs of purchasing patents from unrelated third parties and amortize these costs over the estimated useful life of the patent. The costs related to patent applications, pursuing others who we believe infringe on our patents, and defending against patent-infringement claims are expensed as incurred.

We record acquired intangible assets at fair value on the date of acquisition and amortize such assets using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the asset, unless another amortization method is deemed to be more appropriate. We evaluate the remaining useful life of intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining useful life. If the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed, we amortize the remaining carrying value of the intangible asset prospectively over the revised remaining useful life.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets with a definite life are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or any other significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable.

For long-lived assets used in operations, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows. We measure the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value. Long-lived assets are considered held for sale when certain criteria are met, including when management has committed to a plan to sell the asset, the asset is available for sale in its immediate condition, and the sale is probable within one year of the reporting date. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. We did not have any assets held for sale at June 30, 2014 or 2013.

No impairment charges were recorded for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 or 2012.

Business Combinations

We recognize the assets and liabilities assumed in business combinations on the basis of their fair values at the date of acquisition. We assess the fair value of assets, including intangible assets, using a variety of methods and each asset is measured at fair value from the perspective of a market participant. The method used to estimate the fair values of intangible assets incorporates significant assumptions regarding the estimates a market participant would make in order to evaluate an asset, including a market participant’s use of the asset and the appropriate discount rates for a market participant. Assets recorded from the perspective of a market participant that are determined to not have economic use for us are expensed immediately. Any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is allocated to goodwill. Transaction costs and restructuring costs associated with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

The consideration for our acquisitions often includes future payments that are contingent upon the occurrence of a particular event. For acquisitions that qualify as business combinations, we record an obligation for such contingent payments at fair value on the acquisition date. We estimate the fair value of contingent consideration obligations through valuation models that incorporate probability adjusted assumptions related to the achievement of the milestones and thus likelihood of making related payments. We revalue these contingent consideration obligations each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of our contingent consideration obligations are recognized within general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill

The evaluation of goodwill for impairment is performed at a level referred to as a reporting unit. A reporting unit is either the “operating segment level” or one level below, which is referred to as a “component.” The level at which the impairment test is performed requires an assessment as to whether the operations below the operating segment should be aggregated as one reporting unit due to their similarity or reviewed individually. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis during the fiscal third quarter or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is considered to be impaired when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value.

We have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the results of this analysis indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the quantitative impairment test is required; otherwise, no further assessment is necessary. To perform the quantitative approach, we estimate the fair value of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow methodology. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then a second step of the impairment test is performed in order to determine the implied fair value of our reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we would record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

In fiscal 2014, we performed the qualitative assessment as of January 1, 2014 and determined that there is no indication that the carrying value of any of our reporting units exceeds its fair value. There have been no indications of impairment that would require an updated analysis as of June 30, 2014.

Debt Issuance Costs

Expenses associated with the issuance of debt instruments are capitalized and are amortized over the terms of the respective financing arrangement using the effective interest method, or on a straight-line basis through the maturity date for our revolving credit facility. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we capitalized debt issuance costs related to our credit facility arrangements of $1,319 and $1,887, respectively. Amortization of these costs is included in interest income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and amounted to $765, $556 and $206, for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Unamortized debt issuance costs were $2,334 and $2,963 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. When we make changes to our credit facility, we re-evaluate the capitalization of these costs which could result in the immediate recognition of any unamortized debt issuance costs in our statement of operations.

Investments in Equity Interests

We record our share of the results of investments in equity interests and any related amortization, within loss in equity interests on the consolidated statements of operations. We review our investments for other-than-temporary impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investment may not be fully recoverable. Investments identified as having an indication of impairment are subject to further analysis to determine if the impairment is other-than-temporary and this analysis requires estimating the fair value of the investment, which involves considering factors such as comparable valuations of public companies similar to the entity in which we have an equity investment, current economic and market conditions, the operating performance of the entities including current earnings trends and forecasted cash flows, and other entity and industry specific information.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We record all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have elected to designate a derivative as being a hedging relationship, and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as hedges of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction in a cash flow hedge. We also enter into derivative contracts that are intended to

economically hedge certain of our risks, even though we may not elect to apply hedge accounting or the instrument may not qualify for hedge accounting. The changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as being in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net. In accordance with the fair value measurement guidance, our accounting policy is to measure the credit risk of our derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio. We execute our derivative instruments with financial institutions that we judge to be credit-worthy, defined as institutions that hold an investment grade credit rating.

Restructuring

Restructuring costs are recorded in connection with initiatives designed to improve efficiency or enhance competitiveness. Restructuring initiatives require us to make estimates in several areas, including expenses for severance and other employee separation costs and our ability to generate sublease income to enable us to terminate lease obligations at the estimated amounts. One-time termination benefits are expensed at the date we notify the employee, unless the employee must provide future service beyond the statutory minimum retention period, in which case the benefits are expensed ratably over the future service period. Liabilities for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity are recognized when the liability is incurred, as opposed to when management commits to an exit plan, and are measured at fair value. Restructuring costs are included as a component of each related operating expense within our consolidated statement of operations.

Shareholders’ Equity

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income (loss) is composed of net income, unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities and derivatives, unrealized loss on pension benefit obligation, and cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, which are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Treasury Shares

Treasury shares are accounted for using the cost method and are included as a component of shareholders' equity. We reissue treasury shares as part of our share-based compensation programs, and upon issuance we determine the cost using the average cost method. Effective January 28, 2013, 5,869,662 of our ordinary shares issued and held in our treasury account were canceled and have become authorized but unissued ordinary shares, as authorized by our shareholders on November 8, 2012. These canceled shares represent the remaining balance as of November 8, 2012 of the ordinary shares that were held in treasury at the date of the redomiciliation of our publicly traded parent company from Bermuda to the Netherlands in August 2009. The cancellation of the treasury shares resulted in a reduction of additional paid in capital and retained earnings for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipping of customized manufactured products, as well as providing digital services, website design and hosting, email marketing services, order referral fees and other third party offerings. We recognize revenue arising from sales of products and services when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the product has been shipped or service rendered with no significant post-delivery obligations on our part, the net sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. For subscription services we recognize revenue for the fees charged to customers ratably over the term of the service arrangement. Revenue is recognized net of discounts we offer to our customers as part of advertising campaigns. Revenues from sales of prepaid orders on our websites are deferred until shipment of fulfilled orders or until the prepaid service has been rendered.

For arrangements with multiple deliverables, we allocate revenue to each deliverable if the delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a standalone basis and, if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item, delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially within our control. The fair value of the selling price for a deliverable is determined using a hierarchy of (1)

Company specific objective and reliable evidence, then (2) third-party evidence, then (3) best estimate of selling price. We allocate any arrangement fee to each of the elements based on their relative selling prices.

Shipping, handling and processing costs billed to customers are included in revenue and the related costs are included in cost of revenue at the time of shipment or rendering of service. Sales and purchases in jurisdictions which are subject to indirect taxes, such as value added tax (“VAT”), are recorded net of tax collected and paid as we act as an agent for the government.

We sell vouchers through discount voucher websites which do not have an expiration date. Upon issuance of the voucher, a liability is established for its cash value. We relieve the liability and recognize revenue on a gross basis, as we are the primary obligor, when redeemed items are shipped. Over time, some portion of these vouchers is not redeemed and if there is not a legal obligation to remit the unredeemed voucher to the relevant jurisdiction, an estimated redemption factor may be applied. We are in the process of evaluating historical data in order to determine the portion of discount vouchers that will not be redeemed based on our customer redemption patterns. However, we currently have not established sufficient history and the unredeemed coupons remain in deferred revenue.

A reserve for sales returns or replacements and allowances is recorded based on historical experience or specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve.

Advertising Expense

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in marketing and selling expense. Advertising expense for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $267,655, $287,167 and $252,812, respectively, which consisted of external costs related to customer acquisition and retention marketing campaigns.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and included in technology and development expense. Research and development expense for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $26,423, $24,690 and $19,707, respectively, which consisted of costs related to enhancing our manufacturing engineering and technology capabilities.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current tax expense and assessing temporary and permanent differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when we expect temporary differences to reverse. We assess the ability to realize our deferred tax assets based upon the weight of available evidence both positive and negative. To the extent we believe that it is more likely than not that that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, we establish a valuation allowance. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates or we adjust our estimates in the future, we may need to increase or decrease income tax expense, which could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the tax position. The tax benefits recognized in our financial statements from such positions are measured on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The unrecognized tax benefits will reduce our effective tax rate if recognized. Interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the provision for income taxes.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries translate their assets and liabilities denominated in their functional currency to U.S. dollars at current rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing throughout the period. The resulting gains and losses from translation are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses and remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than an entity’s functional currency are included in other income (expense), net in our statement of operations. The following table summarizes the components of other income (expense), net:



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014			2013			2012
(Losses) gains on derivative instruments	$	(7,473	)	$	29		$	—
Currency related (losses) and gains, net	(1,476		)	(92		)	2,350
Loss on disposal of Namex	(12,681		)	—			—
Total other income (expense), net	$	(21,630	)	$	(63	)	$	2,350

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Vistaprint N.V.

Basic net income per share attributable to Vistaprint N.V. is computed by dividing net income attributable to Vistaprint N.V. by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per share attributable to Vistaprint N.V. gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including share options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and restricted share awards ("RSAs"), if the effect of the securities is dilutive using the treasury stock method. Awards with performance or market conditions are included using the treasury stock method only if the conditions would have been met as of the end of the reporting period and their effect is dilutive.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted-average number of ordinary shares:



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014	2013	2012
Weighted average shares outstanding, basic	32,873,234	33,209,172	37,813,504
Weighted average shares issuable upon exercise/vesting of outstanding share options/RSUs/RSAs	1,366,675	1,262,832	1,139,675
Shares used in computing diluted net income per share attributable to Vistaprint N.V.	34,239,909	34,472,004	38,953,179
Weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted net income per share attributable to Vistaprint N.V.	953,100	1,740,542	1,495,858

Compensation Expense

Share-Based Compensation

Compensation expense for all share-based awards expected to vest is measured at fair value on the date of grant and recognized over the requisite service period. The fair value of share options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, or lattice model for share options with a market condition or subsidiary share options, and the fair value of RSUs and RSAs is determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of our ordinary shares on the date of the grant. Such value is recognized ratably as expense over the requisite service period, or on an accelerated method for awards with a performance or market condition, net of estimated forfeitures. For awards that are ultimately settable in cash, we treat as liability awards and mark the award to market each reporting period recognizing any gain or loss in our statement of operations. The estimation of share awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from our current estimates, such amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. We consider many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience. For awards with a performance condition vesting feature, compensation cost is recorded if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

Sabbatical Leave

Compensation expense associated with a sabbatical leave, or other similar benefit arrangements, is accrued over the requisite service period during which an employee earns the benefit, net of estimated forfeitures, and is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We monitor the creditworthiness of our customers to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business. We had one channel partner that represented 24% and 35% of our total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our revenue for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 or 2012.

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for potential credit losses based upon specific customer accounts and historical trends, and such losses to date in the aggregate have not materially exceeded our expectations.

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09,"Revenue from Contracts with Customers," (ASU 2014-09) which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. This guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on July 1, 2017 and early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The following table summarizes our investments in available-for-sale securities:



	June 30, 2014
	Amortized Cost Basis		Unrealized gain		Estimated Fair Value
Available-for-sale securities
Plaza Create Co. Ltd. common shares (1)	$	4,611	$	9,246	$	13,857
Total investments in available-for-sale securities	$	4,611	$	9,246	$	13,857

________________________

(1) On February 28, 2014, we purchased shares in our publicly traded Japanese joint venture partner. Refer to Note 16 for further discussion of the separate joint business arrangement.

We did not have any outstanding available-for-sale securities for the year ended June 30, 2013.

We use a three-level valuation hierarchy for measuring fair value and include detailed financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:


•	Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.


•	Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.


•	Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following tables summarize our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy:



	June 30, 2014
	Total			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)			Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Assets
Available-for-sale securities	$	13,857		$	13,857	$	—		$	—
Currency forward contracts	382			—		382			—

	June 30, 2013
	Total			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)			Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Assets
Interest rate swap contracts	$	344		$	—	$	344		$	—

Currency forward contracts	(203		)	—		(203		)	—
Total liabilities recorded at fair value	$	(273	)	$	—	$	(273	)	$	—

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 there were no significant transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 classifications.

The valuations of the derivatives intended to mitigate our interest rate and currency risk are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument. This analysis utilizes observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, interest rate volatility, or spot and forward exchange rates, and reflects the contractual terms of these instruments, including the period to maturity. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements.

Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparties' nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement. However, as of June 30, 2014, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Our fourth quarter fiscal 2014 acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting provided for earn-out payments that are payable based on the achievement of certain financial results. For People & Print Group, the payment is contingent upon the achievement of an initial 2014 EBITDA margin threshold but ultimately payable based on achieving certain revenue and EBITDA targets for calendar year 2015. The Pixartprinting payment is contingent on the achievement of revenue and EBITDA targets for calendar year 2014.

The earn-out obligations are measured at fair value and are based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of contingent consideration uses assumptions and estimates to forecast a range of outcomes and probabilities for the contingent consideration. We assess these assumptions and estimates on a quarterly basis as additional data impacting the assumptions is obtained. Any changes in the fair value of contingent consideration related to updated assumptions and estimates will be recognized within the consolidated statements of operations during the period in which the change occurs.

The following table represents the changes in fair value of Level 3 contingent consideration:



	People & Print Group earn-out consideration			Pixartprinting earn-out consideration			Total earn-out consideration
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	—		$	—		$	—
Fair value at acquisition date	9,053			4,953			14,006
Fair value adjustment	832			1,360			2,192
Effect of currency translation adjustments	(89		)	(37		)	(126		)
Balance at June 30, 2014	$	9,796		$	6,276		$	16,072

As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values. As of June 30, 2014, the carrying value of our debt was $448,059 and the fair value was $460,098. As of June 30, 2013, we performed an evaluation of the estimated fair value of our debt and determined that the fair value approximated the carrying value of the liability. Our debt is a variable rate debt instrument indexed to LIBOR that resets periodically. The estimated fair value of our debt was determined using available market information based on recent trades or activity of debt instruments with substantially similar risks, terms and maturities, which fall within Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of assets and liabilities disclosed above may not be representative of actual values that could have been or will be realized in the future.

4. Derivative Financial Instruments

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

We enter into interest rate swap contracts to manage differences in the amount of our known or expected cash payments related to our debt. Our objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the derivative agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. If a derivative is deemed to be ineffective, the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we did not hold any interest rate derivative instruments that were determined to be ineffective.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to interest rate swap contracts will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are accrued or made on our variable-rate debt. Assuming these derivative instruments continue to qualify for hedge accounting, as of June 30, 2014, we estimate that $1,031 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest income during the twelve months ending June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2014, we had ten outstanding interest rate swap contracts indexed to one-month LIBOR. These instruments were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and have varying start dates and maturity dates from July 2014 through January 2017. Since the start date of certain contracts has not yet commenced,

the notional amount of our outstanding contracts is in excess of the variable-rate debt being hedged as of the balance sheet date.



Interest rate swap contracts outstanding:	Notional Amounts
Contracts accruing interest as of June 30, 2014	$	240,000
Contracts with a future start date	105,000
Total	$	345,000

Hedges of Currency Risk

We execute currency forward contracts in order to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in various currencies against our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. We use currency derivatives, specifically currency forward contracts, to manage this exposure. During the year ended June 30, 2014, we had both currency forward contract activity for which we elected hedge accounting and activity for which we did not elect hedge accounting. In evaluating our currency hedging program and ability to achieve hedge accounting in light of certain changes in our legal entity cash flows, we considered the benefits of hedge accounting relative to the additional economic cost of trade execution and administrative burden. Based on this analysis, we decided to not seek hedge accounting for our currency forward contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2014, but we may elect to apply hedge accounting in future scenarios. As a result, during the year ended June 30, 2014, we have experienced increased volatility within other income (expense), net in our consolidated statements of operations from unrealized gains and losses on the mark-to-market of outstanding currency forward contracts. We expect this volatility to continue in future periods for contracts for which we do not apply hedge accounting.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net. As of June 30, 2014, we have no outstanding currency forward contracts that qualify for hedge accounting and, as such, there are no current balances to be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months.

As of June 30, 2014, we had the following outstanding currency forward contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar value of forecasted transactions denominated in Canadian Dollar, Danish Krone, The Euro, Great British Pound, Indian Rupee, New Zealand Dollar, Norwegian Krone, Swedish Krona, and Swiss Franc:



Notional Amount	Effective Date	Maturity Date	Number of Instruments	Index
$127,514	December 2013 through June 2014	Various dates through June 2015	215	Various

6. Waltham and Lexington Lease Arrangements

In July 2013, we executed a lease agreement to move our Lexington, Massachusetts operations to a yet to be constructed facility in Waltham, Massachusetts. The Waltham lease will commence upon completion of the building, scheduled for the first quarter of fiscal 2016, and will extend eleven years from the commencement date. The cash expected to be paid ratably over the initial eleven-year term of the lease is approximately $119,593 starting in September 2015.

Concurrent with the Waltham lease negotiations, we amended our current Lexington lease, as both leases are held with the same landlord. The amendment to the Lexington lease contained a contingent feature to shorten the current term of the lease to coincide with the rent commencement date of the Waltham lease, and a second contingent feature to adjust the remaining annual rental amounts. Both of the arrangements were contingent upon the lessor obtaining certain building permits for the Waltham lease. If the lessor did not fulfill this obligation, we had the option to cancel the Waltham lease, without penalty, and return to the terms of our original Lexington lease. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the lessor obtained all of the requisite building permits for the Waltham building construction.

For accounting purposes, we are deemed to be the owner of the Waltham building during the construction period and, accordingly, as of June 30, 2014 we have recorded $18,117 of construction project costs incurred by the landlord as an asset with a corresponding financing obligation. The asset is included as construction in progress in property, plant and equipment, net. Once the construction is completed, we will evaluate the Waltham lease in order to determine whether or not the lease meets the criteria for "sale-leaseback" treatment.

Although we will not begin making cash lease payments until the lease commencement date, a portion of the lease obligation attributable to the land is treated for accounting purposes as an operating lease that commenced during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. We bifurcate our future lease payments pursuant to the lease into (i) a portion that is allocated to the building and (ii) a portion that is allocated to the land on which the building is being constructed, which will be recorded as rental expense during the construction period. We recognized non-cash rent expense of $875 in our consolidated statement of operations for the land operating lease during the year ended June 30, 2014.

8. Business Combinations

Acquisition of People & Print Group B.V.

On April 1, 2014, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of People & Print Group B.V., an online Dutch printing company focused primarily on the Dutch and Belgian markets. At the closing, we paid €20,545 ($28,300 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition) in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and an additional €4,000 ($5,509 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition), is payable in Vistaprint shares in January 2016 subject to warranties and claims made by the seller. In addition to the initial purchase consideration, we have agreed to a sliding scale earn-out that is based on calendar year 2015 revenue and EBITDA targets. The earn-out amount is theoretically unlimited and could be significant in relation to the base purchase price. The estimated acquisition date fair value of the earn-out payment of $9,053 was included as a component of the purchase price based on an evaluation of the likelihood of achievement of the contractual conditions and weighted probability assumptions of these outcomes. We utilized proceeds from our credit facility to finance the acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, we incurred transaction costs related to investment banking, legal, financial, and other professional services of approximately $1,160 in the year ended June 30, 2014, which were recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of People & Print Group and its subsidiaries from April 1, 2014, the date of acquisition. People & Print Group’s revenue included in our consolidated revenues for the year ended June 30, 2014 was $16,381. People & Print Group's net income included in our consolidated net income attributable to Vistaprint N.V. for the year ended June 30, 2014 was $833, inclusive of amortization of identifiable intangible assets.

The table below details the consideration transferred to acquire People & Print Group:



Cash paid	$	28,300
Deferred consideration payable in Vistaprint N.V. shares	5,509
Fair value of contingent consideration	9,053
Total consideration	$	42,862

The excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of People & Print Group’s net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to cost synergies expected from manufacturing efficiency opportunities and the value of the workforce of People & Print Group. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, and has been attributed to our Europe operating segment. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was:



				Weighted Average

Acquisition of Pixartprinting S.p.A.

On April 3, 2014, we acquired 97% of the outstanding corporate capital of Pixartprinting S.p.A., a joint stock corporation incorporated under the laws of Italy, as follows;


•	We acquired all of the Pixartprinting corporate capital held by Alcedo III, a close-ended investment fund, representing 72.75% of Pixartprinting’s outstanding corporate capital.


•	We acquired a portion of the Pixartprinting corporate capital held by Cap2 S.r.l., a company controlled by Pixartprinting’s founder, representing 21.25% of Pixartprinting’s outstanding corporate capital, and Cap2 retained 3% of Pixartprinting’s outstanding corporate capital (the “Cap2 Retained Equity”).

•

We acquired all of the Pixartprinting corporate capital held by Alessandro Tenderini, Pixartprinting’s Chief Executive Officer, at closing representing 3% of Pixartprinting’s outstanding corporate capital. Mr. Tenderini has the right to purchase 1% of the corporate capital of Pixartprinting from Vistaprint (the “CEO Retained Equity”) for an aggregate purchase price of €10 during the 10 business days after April 3, 2015, so long as Mr. Tenderini remains a Vistaprint Italy employee on that date, with possible accelerated vesting or forfeiture under certain circumstances.

Vistaprint agreed to pay an aggregate base purchase price of €127,850 ($175,896 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition) in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and a sliding-scale earn-out of up to €9,600 ($13,208 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition) in cash on or after December 31, 2014 based upon the acquired business achieving certain revenue and EBITDA targets for calendar year 2014. The estimated fair value of the earn-out payment of $4,953 was included as a component of the purchase price based on an evaluation of the likelihood of achievement of the contractual conditions and weighted probability assumptions of these outcomes. We utilized proceeds from our credit facility to finance the acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, we incurred transaction costs related to investment banking, legal, financial, and other professional services of approximately $3,370 in the year ended June 30, 2014, which were recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pixartprinting from April 3, 2014, the date of acquisition. Pixartprinting’s revenue included in our consolidated revenues for the year ended June 30, 2014 was $27,208. Pixartprinting's net income included in our consolidated net income attributable to Vistaprint N.V. for the year ended June 30, 2014 was $2,687, inclusive of amortization of identifiable intangible assets.

Noncontrolling Interest

We entered into a Put and Call Option Agreement with Cap2, with respect to the Cap2 Retained Equity. Pursuant to the Put and Call Option Agreement, Cap2 has the right to sell to us all (but not less than all) of the Cap2 Retained Equity at the end of Pixartprinting’s fiscal years ending June 30, 2015, 2016 and 2017 for a purchase price based on Pixartprinting’s EBITDA and net financial position (as reflected in its annual financial statements) for the fiscal year as to which the put option is exercised. We have the right to buy from Cap2 all (but not less than all) of the Cap2 Retained Equity at the end of Pixartprinting’s fiscal years ending June 30, 2017 and 2018 for a purchase price based on Pixartprinting’s EBITDA and net financial position (as reflected in its annual financial statements) for the fiscal year as to which the call option is exercised. The parties’ put and call rights are also triggered by certain other events and are exercisable during 30-day periods following the determination of the option purchase price for the relevant fiscal year. Due to the presence of the put arrangement, the noncontrolling interest is presented as temporary equity in our consolidated balance sheet. Upon acquisition, we recognized the noncontrolling interest at fair value of $5,728 and will adjust the balance for the pro rata impact of the Pixartprinting earnings or loss, as well as adjustments to increase the balance to the redemption value, if necessary.

CEO Retained Equity

We entered into a Put and Call Option Agreement with Mr. Tenderini with respect to the CEO Retained Equity which will take effect if Mr. Tenderini exercises the purchase right described above. Because this purchase right is contingent upon Mr. Tenderini's post-acquisition employment, it is not included as part of the consideration but will be recognized as share-based compensation over the vesting period. The award is considered a liability award and will be marked to fair value each reporting period. In order to estimate the fair value of the award as of June 30, 2014, we utilized a lattice model with a Monte Carlo simulation. The total fair value of the award is $1,825 and we have recognized $439 in general and administrative expense as of June 30, 2014. Assuming Mr. Tenderini exercises this purchase right, then pursuant to the Put and Call Option Agreement, Mr. Tenderini has the right to sell to us all (but not less than all) of the CEO Retained Equity at the end of Pixartprinting’s fiscal years ending June 30, 2015, 2016 and 2017 for a purchase price based on Pixartprinting’s EBITDA and net financial position (as reflected in its annual financial statements) for the fiscal year as to which the put option is exercised. We have the right to buy from Mr. Tenderini all (but not less than all) of the CEO Retained Equity at the end of Pixartprinting’s fiscal years ending June 30, 2017 and 2018 for a purchase price based on Pixartprinting’s EBITDA and net financial position (as reflected in its annual financial statements) for the fiscal year as to which the call option is exercised. The parties’ put and call rights are also triggered by certain other events and are exercisable during 30-day periods following the determination of the option purchase price for the relevant fiscal year.

The table below details the consideration transferred to acquire Pixartprinting:



Cash paid	$	175,896
Shareholder loans assumed	20,227
Fair value of contingent consideration	4,953
Total consideration	$	201,076

The excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of Pixartprinting’s net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to expected synergies and the value of the workforce of Pixartprinting. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, and has been attributed to our Europe operating segment. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was:

Pixartprinting Pro Forma Financial Information

Pixartprinting has been included in our consolidated financial statements starting on its acquisition date. The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents our results as if the Pixartprinting acquisition had occurred on July 1, 2012. These amounts have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the results of Pixartprinting for US GAAP and fair value adjustments. The unaudited pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what actually would have occurred had the acquisition been in effect for the periods presented:



	For the Year Ended
	June 30, 2014		June 30, 2013
Pro forma revenue	$	1,383,921	$	1,231,160
Pro forma income from operations	$	96,615	$	45,715

Acquisition of Albumprinter Holding B.V.

On October 31, 2011, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Albumprinter Holding B.V., a provider of photo books and other photo products to consumers in Europe. At closing, we paid €60,000 ($85,019 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition) in cash for Albumprinter’s shares, which we funded using cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility, and we agreed to pay up to an additional €5,000 ($7,085 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition) in cash on or after December 31, 2012 based upon the acquired business achieving revenue and earnings targets for calendar year 2012. The estimated fair value of the earn-out payment of $583 was included as a component of the purchase price based on an evaluation of the likelihood of achievement of the contractual conditions and weighted probability assumptions of these outcomes. The contractual conditions of the earn-out payment were ultimately not achieved, so we did not pay any earn-out amount. As such, the change in estimate was recorded as a benefit in our consolidated statement of operations during the year ended June 30, 2013.

The excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of Albumprinter’s net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to revenue synergies expected from cross-selling opportunities and the value of the workforce of Albumprinter. Of the total purchase price, $47,391 was allocated to goodwill, $41,801 to identifiable intangible assets and $8,075 to net assumed liabilities, inclusive of $7,423 of deferred tax liabilities. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes, and has been attributed to our Europe operating segment.

Acquisition of Webs, Inc.

On December 28, 2011, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Webs, Inc., a provider of do-it-yourself websites, Facebook pages and mobile presence solutions for small businesses. At closing we paid $101,258 in cash and issued 506,343 of our ordinary shares pursuant to RSAs that were contingent upon continued employment of the founding shareholders. The purchase price was funded using cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility.

The RSAs were granted to the founding shareholders of Webs and vested 50% on December 28, 2012 and 50% on December 28, 2013, subject to continued employment on each vesting date with possible accelerated vesting or forfeiture under certain circumstances. The fair value of the RSAs of $15,843 was determined based on our share price on the date of acquisition and was recognized as share-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the two year vesting period. The RSAs were not included as part of the consideration transferred for purposes of the purchase price allocation.

The excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of Webs’ net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to revenue synergies expected from cross-selling opportunities and the value of the

workforce of Webs. Of the total purchase price, $93,498 was allocated to goodwill, $9,075 to identifiable intangible assets and $1,315 to net liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes, and has been attributed to our North America operating segment.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

We used the income approach to value the trade names, customer relationships and customer network and a replacement cost approach to value developed technology. The income approach calculates fair value by discounting the forecasted after-tax cash flows back to a present value using an appropriate discount rate. The baseline data for this analysis was the cash flow estimates used to price the transaction.

In estimating the useful life of the acquired assets, we reviewed the expected use of the assets acquired, factors that may limit the useful life of an acquired asset or may enable the extension of the useful life of an acquired asset without substantial cost, the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors, and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset. We amortize acquired intangible assets over their economic useful lives using either a method that is based on estimated future cash flows or a straight-line basis over the periods benefited.

JP Morgan Credit Facility

On January 17, 2014, we entered into an amendment to our credit agreement resulting in an increase to aggregate loan commitments under the credit agreement to a total of $800,000 by adding new lenders and increasing the commitments of several existing lenders. The new loan commitments include revolving loans of $640,000 and term loans of $160,000. The amendment did not result in any material changes to our debt covenants. As of June 30, 2014, we have a committed credit facility $793,859 as follows:


•	Revolving loans of $640,000 with a maturity date of February 8, 2018;


•	Term loan of $153,859 amortizing over the loan period, with a final maturity date of February 8, 2018.

Under the terms of our credit agreement, borrowings bear interest at a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.00% depending on our leverage ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated total indebtedness to our consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), as defined by the credit agreement. As of June 30, 2014, the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 2.06%, inclusive of interest rate swap rates. We must also pay a commitment fee on unused balances of 0.225% to 0.350% depending on our leverage ratio. We have pledged the assets and/or share capital of several of our subsidiaries as collateral for our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2014.

Our credit agreement contains financial and other covenants, including but not limited to limitations on (1) our incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (2) the consummation of certain fundamental organizational changes or intercompany activities, for example acquisitions, (3) investments and restricted payments including the amount of purchases of our ordinary shares or payments of dividends, and (4) the amount of consolidated capital expenditures that we may make in each of our fiscal years through June 30, 2018. The credit agreement also contains financial covenants calculated on a trailing twelve month, or TTM, basis that:


•	our consolidated leverage ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated indebtedness () to our TTM consolidated EBITDA (), will not exceed 3.25 during the period from March 31, 2014 through December 31, 2014; and 3.0 after March 31, 2015; and


•	our interest coverage ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated EBITDA to our consolidated interest expense, will be at least 3.0.

(*) The definitions of EBITDA and consolidated indebtedness are maintained in our credit agreement included as an exhibit to our Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2013 as amended by amendment no. 1 to the credit agreement included as an exhibit to our form 8-K filed on January 22, 2014.

Our credit agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and events of default. As of the date of this filing, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants under the credit agreement.

Additional line of credit

On March 28, 2014 we entered into an agreement for an uncommitted line of credit with Santander Bank, N.A. Under the terms of the agreement we may borrow up to $50,000 at any time, with a maturity date of up to 90 days from the loan origination date. Under the terms of our uncommitted line of credit, borrowings bear interest at a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus 1.10%. The LIBOR rate is determined on the date of borrowing and is based on the length of the specific loan. As of June 30, 2014 the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings of $21,200 was 1.22%.

12. Shareholders’ Equity

Share purchases

On May 5, 2014, we announced that our Supervisory Board authorized the purchase of up to 6,500,000 of our ordinary shares, of which 5,532,126 shares remain available for purchase under this program as of June 30, 2014. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we purchased 1,044,136 and 1,850,746 of our ordinary shares for a cost of $42,016 and $64,351, respectively.

Share-based awards

The 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) became effective upon shareholder approval on June 30, 2011 and allows us to grant share options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units and other awards based on our ordinary shares to our employees, officers, non-employee supervisory board directors, consultants and advisors. Among other terms, the 2011 Plan requires that the exercise price of any share option or share appreciation right granted under the 2011 Plan be at least 100% of the fair market value of the ordinary shares on the date of grant; limits the term of any share option or share appreciation right to a maximum period of 10 years; provides that shares underlying outstanding awards under the Amended and Restated 2005 Equity Incentive Plan that are canceled, forfeited, expired or otherwise terminated without having been issued in full will become available for the grant of new awards under the 2011 Plan; and prohibits the repricing of any share options or share appreciation rights without shareholder approval. In addition, the 2011 Plan provides that the number of ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan will be reduced by (i) 1.56 ordinary shares for each share subject to a restricted share or other share-based award with a per share or per unit purchase price lower than 100% of the fair market value of the ordinary shares on the date of grant and (ii) one ordinary share for each share subject to any other award under the 2011 Plan.

Our 2005 Non-Employee Directors’ Share Option Plan provides for non-employee directors to receive share option grants upon initial appointment as a director and annually thereafter in connection with our annual general meeting of shareholders if they are continuing to serve as a director at such time.

We also have two additional plans with options and RSUs outstanding from which we will not grant any additional awards. An aggregate of 2,752,919 ordinary shares are available for future awards under all of our share-based award plans as of June 30, 2014. A combination of new shares and treasury shares has historically been used in fulfillment of option exercises and issuance of shares upon RSU award vesting.

Share options

We grant options to purchase ordinary shares at prices that are at least equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date the option is granted and have a contractual term of approximately eight to ten years. Options generally vest quarterly over 3 years for non-employee directors and 25% after one year and quarterly for 12 quarters thereafter for employees.

The fair value of each option award subject only to service period vesting is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures based on historical experience. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to inputs. The expected volatility assumption is based upon historical volatility of our share price. The expected term assumption is based on the contractual and vesting term of the option and historical experience. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve with a maturity equal to the expected life assumed at the grant date. We value share options with a market condition using a lattice model with compensation expense recorded on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period.

Weighted-average values used for option grants in fiscal 2014, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014			2013			2012
Risk-free interest rate	1.56		%	0.81		%	1.04		%
Expected dividend yield	—		%	—		%	—		%
Expected term (years)	5.75			6.00			6.00
Expected volatility	56		%	58		%	58		%
Weighted average fair value of options granted	$	28.14		$	17.23		$	17.78

A summary of our share option activity and related information for the year ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:



	Shares Pursuant to Options		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at the beginning of the period	4,379,207		$	36.46	5.1
Granted	12,432		54.08
Exercised	(368,339	)	13.71
Forfeited/cancelled	(63,947	)	49.15
Outstanding at the end of the period	3,959,353		$	38.43	4.4	$	29,370
Vested or expected to vest at the end of the period	3,794,867		$	37.93	4.3	$	29,367
Exercisable at the end of the period	2,330,773		$	30.40	3.3	$	29,279

The intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax amount, net of exercise price, which would have been received if all option holders exercised in-the-money options on June 30, 2014. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $14,860, $6,648, and $1,900, respectively.

Restricted share units

The fair value of RSU grants is equal to the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures based on historical experience. RSUs generally vest quarterly for two to three years for non-employee supervisory board directors and 25% after one year and quarterly for 12 quarters thereafter for employees. For awards with a performance condition, we recognize compensation cost on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period when achievement of the performance condition is deemed probable. As of June 30, 2014, we had 225,000 RSUs outstanding that vest based on the achievement of various performance targets through fiscal 2022. The performance criteria for 180,000 of these RSUs are currently deemed not probable of achievement. Future changes in our probability conclusions could result in volatility of our share-based compensation expense as the awards have a maximum compensation of $7,169.

A summary of our unvested RSU activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:



	RSUs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Unvested at the beginning of the period	1,107,495		$	39.49
Granted	286,006		48.06
Vested and distributed	(401,363	)	40.19
Forfeited	(155,007	)	39.41
Unvested at the end of the period	837,131		$	42.10	$	33,870

The weighted average fair value of RSUs granted during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $48.06, $39.72 and $36.53, respectively. The total intrinsic value of RSUs vested during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $20,629, $12,397 and $14,047, respectively.

Restricted share awards

In conjunction with the December 2011 acquisition of Webs, we granted RSAs to the founding shareholders of Webs that vested 50% on December 28, 2012 and 50% on December 28, 2013, subject to continued employment on each vesting date with possible accelerated vesting or forfeiture under certain circumstances. The fair value of the RSAs of $15,843 was determined based on our share price on the date of acquisition and was recognized as share-based compensation expense over the two year vesting period.

A summary of our RSA activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:



	RSAs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Unvested at the beginning of the period	253,171		$	31.29

Share-based compensation

Total share-based compensation costs were $27,786, $32,928 and $25,413 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. See footnote 8 for information related to a liability based award issued in conjunction with our acquisition of Pixartprinting. Share-based compensation costs capitalized as part of software and website development costs were $254, $130 and $101 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, there was $40,443 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested, share-based compensation arrangements, net of estimated forfeitures. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.7 years.

13. Employees’ Savings Plans

Defined contribution plans

We maintain certain government mandated and defined contribution plans throughout the world. The most significant is our defined contribution retirement plan in the U.S. (the “Plan”) that complies with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Substantially all employees in the U.S. are eligible to participate in the Plan. Under the provisions of the Plan, employees may voluntarily contribute up to 80% of eligible compensation, subject to IRS limitations. We match 50% of each participant’s voluntary contributions, subject to a maximum company contribution of 3% of the participant’s eligible compensation. Employee contributions are fully vested when contributed. Company matching contributions vest over 4 years.

We expensed $8,178, $7,158 and $5,301 for our government mandated and defined contribution plans in the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our expenses from these plans have increased during the year ended June 30, 2014 due to increased headcount, as well as the full year impact of our business acquisitions during the prior period.

Defined benefit plan

We currently have one defined benefit plan that covers substantially all of our employees in Switzerland. Our Swiss plan is a government-mandated retirement fund with benefits generally earned based on years of service and compensation during active employment; however, the level of benefits varies within the Plan. Eligibility is determined in accordance with local statutory requirements. Under this plan, both we and certain of our employees with annual earnings in excess of government determined amounts are required to make contributions into a fund managed by an independent investment fiduciary. Employer contributions must be in an amount at least equal to the employee’s contribution. Minimum employee contributions are based on the respective employee’s age, salary, and gender. As of June 30, 2014, the plan had an unfunded net pension obligation of approximately $3,338 and plan assets which totaled approximately $11,602. For the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 we recognized expense totaling $1,921, $1,417, and $1,030, respectively, related to our Swiss plan.

14. Income Taxes

The following is a summary of our income before taxes by geography:



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014		2013		2012
U.S.	$	14,382	$	8,730	$	10,851

Significant components of our deferred income tax assets and liabilities consist of the following at June 30, 2014 and 2013:



	Year Ended June 30,
	2014			2013
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards	$	15,066		$	6,905
Depreciation and amortization	373			485
Accrued expenses	5,112			2,587
Share-based compensation	14,712			11,897
Credit and other carryforwards	146			638

Total deferred tax liabilities	(53,433		)	(30,963		)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(23,545	)	$	(12,483	)

The current portion of the net deferred taxes at June 30, 2014 and 2013 consisted of an asset of $717 and $648, respectively, included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a liability of $2,178 and $1,466, respectively, which is included in current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No valuation allowance has been recorded against the $14,712 deferred tax asset associated with share-based compensation charges at June 30, 2014. However, in the future, if the underlying awards expire, are released or exercised with an intrinsic value less than the fair value of the awards on the date of grant, some or all of the benefit may not be realizable. The increase in the valuation allowance from the prior year relates to losses incurred in certain jurisdictions for which management has determined that it is more likely than not that these losses will not be utilized in the foreseeable future. Based on the weight of available evidence at June 30, 2014, management believes that it is more likely than not that all other net deferred tax assets will be realized in the foreseeable future. We will continue to assess the realization of the deferred tax assets based on operating results.

The deferred tax liabilities increased significantly in 2014 as a result of intangible assets from the recently acquired companies, Pixartprinting and People & Print Group. The deferred tax liabilities increased by $20,640 and $6,436 from Pixartprinting and People & Print Group, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, we had gross U.S. federal and state net operating losses of approximately $1,010 that expire on various dates up to and through the year 2034. We had gross non-U.S. net operating loss and other carryforwards of approximately $94,492, a significant amount of which expire in 2021, with the remaining amounts expiring on various dates up to and through 2031. The benefits of these carryforwards are dependent upon the generation of taxable income in the jurisdictions where they arose.

receive a tax benefit associated with the future amortization of the fair market value of the intellectual property received, which for tax purposes will occur over a period of five years in accordance with the applicable tax laws.

On January 2, 2012, one of our subsidiaries purchased Webs' global sales and distribution rights, customer lists, marketing intangibles, web-based technologies, software tools, and related technical data and know-how (collectively “Webs Intellectual Property”) in order to align the Webs business with our global operations. The transfer of assets occurred between two wholly owned legal entities within the Vistaprint group that are based in different tax jurisdictions, creating a taxable gain reportable in the transferor entity's jurisdiction. The gain is recognized for income tax purposes only and not in our consolidated financial statements. As the gain was the result of an intra-entity transaction in accordance with U.S. GAAP, any gain or loss and immediate tax impact is eliminated and not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. We recognize tax expense specifically associated with an intra-entity transfer of intangible property over a period equal to the expected economic lives of the underlying assets transferred. In the transfer of Webs' Intellectual Property, the weighted average amortization period of 13 years was determined based on the estimated economic lives of the intellectual property transferred.

We elected to fund the transfer of Webs Intellectual Property using an installment obligation payable over a 7.5 year period. The decision to structure the transaction with an installment obligation was driven by financing and cash flow considerations, and the terms of the installment obligation were determined on an appropriate arm's-length basis. In compliance with local tax laws in the applicable jurisdictions, the tax liability associated with this transfer qualified for installment treatment and, thus, the cash tax liability will be payable over the term of the underlying installment obligation. Accordingly, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability for the entire tax liability owed but not yet paid as of the date of the transaction with a corresponding asset in “Other Assets” to reflect the deferred tax charge to be recognized over the expected remaining lives of the underlying assets as described above.

As of June 30, 2014, undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries of $112,542 are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. If, in the future, we decide to repatriate undistributed earnings from certain of these subsidiaries in the form of dividends or otherwise, we could be subject to withholding taxes payable at that time. Determination of the amount of withholding taxes that would be payable is not practicable due to the complexities associated with this hypothetical calculation.

A reconciliation of the gross beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:



Balance at June 30, 2012	$	6,320
Additions based on tax positions related to the current tax year	250
Reductions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	(234		)
Reductions due to audit settlements	(654		)
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	5,682
Additions based on tax positions related to the current tax year	152
Additions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	1,244
Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations	(334		)
Balance at June 30, 2014	$	6,744

For the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits (exclusive of interest) that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $3,061 and $2,157, respectively. We recognize interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The accrued interest and penalties recognized as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $298 and $241, respectively.

It is reasonably possible that a further change in unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months related to the settlement of one or more audits or the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations. However, an estimated range of the impact on the unrecognized tax benefits cannot be quantified at this time. We believe we have appropriately provided for all tax uncertainties.

We conduct business in a number of tax jurisdictions and, as such, are required to file income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions globally. The years 2007 through 2013 remain open for examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the years 2006 through 2013 remain open for examination in the various states and non-US tax jurisdictions in which we file tax returns.

One of our subsidiaries, Vistaprint Limited (domiciled in Bermuda), is currently under income tax audit by the IRS. In August 2012, we received a Revenue Agent's Report (“RAR”) from the IRS proposing tax assessments for the 2007 to 2009 tax years. The issue in dispute is the imposition of U.S. federal income tax based on the IRS' assertion that Vistaprint Limited had income effectively connected with a U.S. Trade or Business. In September 2012, we filed a protest stating our formal disagreement with the facts and technical conclusions presented in the RAR and requesting the case be heard by the IRS Office of Appeals. We are currently in discussions with the Office of Appeals and we anticipate resolution of this matter could happen sometime in fiscal year 2015.

One of our subsidiaries, Vistaprint USA, Incorporated, has received Notices of Assessment from the Massachusetts Department of Revenue ("DOR") related to the tax years 2006-2008 and 2010-2011. The Notices contain adjustments to taxable income for these years. The issue in dispute is whether the DOR has the right to impute royalty income to Vistaprint USA in the years at issue associated with the use of certain intangible property by Vistaprint Limited, even though that intangible property was transferred for a lump-sum payment to Vistaprint Limited in an earlier year that is closed to adjustment by virtue of the governing statute of limitations. The 2006-2008 years were recently under review by the DOR Office of Appeals. In July, we received a Letter of Determination from the Office of Appeals rejecting our Application for Abatement and upholding the DOR’s original assessments. We are currently in the process of preparing a petition to have our case heard by the Massachusetts Appellate Tax Board. The 2010-2011 years are currently still in Appeals. However, we expect these years to follow a similar path to the 2006-2008 years. We continue to believe that the DOR’s position has no merit, and we intend to contest these assessments to the fullest extent possible.

In October 2013, Vistaprint USA, Incorporated and the IRS signed an RAR which effectively concluded the audit for the tax year 2011. We have included the impact of all RAR adjustments in our financial statements, accordingly, which did not have a material impact to our net income. The audit of the income tax return for the tax year 2012 continues to progress in the field examination stage.

One of our Canadian subsidiaries, Vistaprint North American Services Corp., was previously under income tax examination by the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for the 2006 tax year. In October 2013, the Company had a formal hearing before the Appeals Division of the CRA. We were subsequently notified that the case has been concluded and the audit assessments have been overturned resulting in no additional tax owed. There are no adjustments to our income tax reserves required as a result of this finding.

We believe that our income tax reserves associated with these matters are adequate as the positions reported on our tax returns will be sustained on their technical merits. However, final resolution is uncertain and there is a possibility that the final resolution could have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

15. Investment in Equity Interests

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, we disposed of our investment in Namex Limited and its related companies, as discussions with management identified different visions in the execution of the long-term strategic direction of the business. We sold all of our Namex shares to Namex's majority shareholder and recognized a loss of $12,681, in other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of operations.

Prior to the sale, we had a 45% investment that was accounted for using the equity method, as the investment was considered a variable interest entity and we were not the primary beneficiary. We recorded in net income a proportionate share of the earnings or losses of Namex, as well as related amortization, with a corresponding increase or decrease in the carrying value of the investment. For the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, in addition to the loss recognized on our sale, we recorded losses of $2,704 and 1,910, respectively, attributable to Namex in our consolidated statement of operations.

16. Noncontrolling Interest

We have certain investments in which we enter into strategic business arrangements with third parties and we have controlling interest. The balance sheet and operating activity of these entities are included in our consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2014. We adjust the net income in our consolidated statement of operations to exclude the noncontrolling interests proportionate share of results. We present the proportionate share of equity attributable to the noncontrolling interests as temporary equity within our consolidated balance sheet.

On April 3, 2014 we acquired 97% of the outstanding corporate capital of Pixartprinting S.p.A. The remaining 3% is considered redeemable noncontrolling equity interest. It is presented as temporary equity in our consolidated balance sheet for the period ended June 30, 2014, as it is redeemable for cash based on future financial results and not solely within our control. The noncontrolling interest was recorded at its fair value as of the acquisition date and will be adjusted to its redemption value on a periodic basis, if that amount exceeds its fair value. As of June 30, 2014, the redemption value is less than carrying value and therefore no adjustment has been made. For additional details please refer to Note 8 Business Combinations.

We own a 51% controlling interest in a joint business arrangement with Plaza Create Co. Ltd., a leading Japanese retailer of photo products, to expand our market presence in Japan. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, we contributed $4,891 in cash and $1,100 in assets, and Plaza Create made an initial capital contribution of $4,818 in cash and assets valued at $955. The 49% noncontrolling equity interest in the business is presented as temporary equity in our consolidated balance sheet for the period ended June 30, 2014, due to certain default provisions contained in the agreement.

The following table presents the changes in our redeemable noncontrolling interests for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014:



	Noncontrolling Interests
Balance as of June 30, 2013	$	—
Capital contribution from noncontrolling interest	5,773
Adjustment to noncontrolling interest	56
Acquisition of noncontrolling interest	5,728
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest	(380		)
Foreign currency translation	(17		)
Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	11,160

17. Segment Information

Operating segments are based upon our internal organization structure, the manner in which our operations are managed and the availability of separate financial information reported internally to the Chief Executive Officer, who constitutes our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for purposes of making decision about how to allocate resources and assess performance. We have three geographically based operating segments: North America, Europe, and Most of World, which includes our historical Asia Pacific business and global emerging markets. The results of our fourth quarter fiscal 2014 acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting are included in our Europe segment results. The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments based on revenue and income (loss) from operations.

Consistent with our historical reporting, the cost of our North America and Europe legal, human resource, and facilities management functions are not allocated to the reporting segments and instead reported and disclosed under the caption "Corporate and global functions," which includes expenses related to corporate support functions, software and manufacturing engineering, and the global component of our IT operations and customer sales and design support. Effective March 1, 2014 we revised our Most of World ("MOW") internal reporting structure to align to this model and, as such, have recast our historical segment income (loss) from operations to reflect those MOW specific costs as part of the Corporate and global function operating loss.

We do not allocate non-operating income to our segment results. There are no internal revenue transactions between our reporting segments and all intersegment transfers are recorded at cost for presentation to the CODM, for example, products manufactured by our Venlo, the Netherlands facility for the MOW segment; therefore, there is no intercompany profit or loss recognized on these transactions. At this time, we do not allocate support costs across operating segments or corporate and global functions, which may limit the comparability of income from operations by segment. Our balance sheet information is not presented to the CODM on an allocated basis and therefore we do not present asset information by segment.

Revenue by segment and geography is based on the country-specific website through which the customer’s order was transacted. The following tables set forth revenue and income from operations by operating segment.

18. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

We are committed under operating leases for our facilities that expire on various dates through 2024. Total lease expense for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $14,151, $11,720 and $10,083, respectively.

We lease certain machinery and plant equipment under both capital and operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2017. The aggregate carrying value of the leased equipment under capital leases included in property, plant and equipment, net in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014, is $12,554, net of accumulated depreciation of $959; the present value of lease installments not yet due included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014 amounts to $8,875.

Future minimum payments required for our lease obligations for the next five fiscal years and thereafter are as follows at June 30, 2014:



	Operating lease obligations		Build-to-suit lease obligations (1)		Capital lease obligations
2015	$	14,067	$	—	$	4,572
2016	7,200		8,989		2,985
2017	6,601		10,788		1,163
2018	4,816		10,788		477
2019	4,071		10,788		—
Thereafter	13,714		78,240		—
Total	$	50,469	$	119,593	$	9,197

___________________

(1) Minimum payments relate to our Waltham lease obligation, please refer to Note 6 for additional details.

The terms of certain lease agreements require security deposits in the form of bank guarantees and a letter of credit in the amount of $1,427 and $145, respectively. In addition, we provided a customary indemnification to the lessor for certain claims that may arise under the lease for which we have not recorded a liability as we have determined that the associated fair value is not material. We carry insurance policies that we believe would provide, in most cases, some, if not total, recourse to any claims arising from this lease indemnification provision.

Purchase Obligations

At June 30, 2014, we had unrecorded commitments under contract of $30,860, which were principally composed of inventory purchase commitments of approximately $11,956, production and computer equipment purchases of approximately $9,567, and other unrecorded purchase commitments of $9,337.

Debt

The required principal payments due during the next five years and thereafter under our outstanding long-term debt obligations (excluding our short-term uncommitted credit facility) at June 30, 2014 are as follows:



2015	$	16,375
2016	18,422
2017	42,984
2018	349,078
2019	—
Thereafter	—
Total	$	426,859

Other Obligations

We have an outstanding installment obligation of $16,556 related to the fiscal 2012 intra-entity transfer of Webs' Intellectual Property, which results in tax being paid over a 7.5 year term and has been classified as a deferred tax liability in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014.

Legal Proceedings

We are not currently party to any material legal proceedings. Although we cannot predict with certainty the results of litigation and claims to which we may be subject from time to time, we do not expect the resolution of any of our current matters to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position. In all cases, at each reporting period, we evaluate whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. We expense the costs relating to our legal proceedings as those costs are incurred.

19. Restructuring

During the second quarter of fiscal 2014 we closed our Singapore location, which provided strategic and administrative support services as part of our Most of World Segment and recognized expense associated with employee and facility termination costs. In the fourth quarter we executed a focused workforce reduction that impacted our North America, Europe and Corporate and global function segments. The following table summarizes the total restructuring costs incurred during the year ended June 30, 2014. There were no such charges during the year ended June 30, 2013.



	Year ended June 30, 2014
Employee termination benefits	$	5,238
Facility termination costs (1)	742
Total restructuring expense	$	5,980

_____________________

(1) The year ended June 30, 2014 includes $472 of accelerated depreciation related to property, plant and equipment.

The following table summarizes the restructuring activity for the year ended June 30, 2014:



	Employee Termination Benefits			Facility Termination Costs
Accrued restructuring balance as of June 30, 2013	$	—		$	—
Restructuring additions	5,238			270
Cash payments	(2,706		)	(270		)
Accrued restructuring balance as of June 30, 2014	$	2,532		$	—

We do not expect to incur any additional costs related to these activities in future periods, however estimates may change which could result in additional expense.

21. Subsequent Events

On July 1, 2014 we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Fotoknudsen AS, a Norwegian consumer photo product company. At closing we paid €14,045 in cash ($19,224 based on the exchange rate as of the date of acquisition), subject to working capital and other adjustments. We utilized proceeds from our credit facility to finance the acquisition.

On August 7, 2014 we made a capital investment in Printi LLC, which operates in Brazil through a subsidiary. We paid $8,210 in cash, resulting in a 41.6% equity interest with options to increase our ownership incrementally over 9 years. This investment provides us access to a new market and an opportunity to drive longer-term growth in Brazil.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2014. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2014, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the year ended June 30, 2014, we completed the acquisitions of People & Print Group and Pixartprinting, which has expanded our internal control environment. The process of integrating policies, processes, people, technology and operations for the combined companies may result in additions or changes to our internal control over financial reporting in the future. Management will continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting as we execute our integration activities.

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 that materially affect, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s supervisory board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:


•	Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;


•	Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and


•	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In accordance with SEC guidelines regarding the evaluation of internal control of entities subject to a business combination, we have excluded People & Print Group B.V. and its subsidiaries and Pixartprinting S.p.A and its subsidiaries from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. As previously announced, we acquired these entities on April 1, 2014 and April 3, 2014, respectively. The results of these acquisitions are included in our 2014 consolidated financial statements and represent approximately $43.3 million and $2.9 million of total and net assets, respectively, as of June 30, 2014 and $43.6 million and $3.5 million of revenues and net income attributable to Vistaprint, respectively, for the year then ended.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 Framework) (the COSO criteria).

Based on our assessment, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

Our independent auditors have issued an audit report on internal control over financial reporting. This report appears on the following page.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Supervisory Board and Shareholders of

Vistaprint N.V.

We have audited Vistaprint N.V.’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework) (the COSO criteria). Vistaprint N.V.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Vistaprint N.V. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on the COSO criteria.

As indicated in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of People & Print Group B.V. and its subsidiaries and Pixartprinting S.p.A and its subsidiaries, which are included in the consolidated financial statements of Vistaprint N.V as of June 30, 2014 and constituted approximately $43.3 million of total assets and $ 2.9 million of net assets as of June 30, 2014 and approximately $ 43.6 million of revenues and $3.5 million of net income for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of Vistaprint N.V. also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of People & Print Group B.V. and its subsidiaries and Pixartprinting S.p.A and its subsidiaries.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Vistaprint N.V. as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014 of Vistaprint N.V. and our report dated August 15, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
