Vistaprint Reports 2011 Fiscal Year Third Quarter Financial Results
Third quarter results were as follows:
  Revenue grew 23 percent year over year to $203.7 million
 
  Revenue grew 22 percent year over year excluding the impact of currency exchange fluctuations
 
  GAAP net income per diluted share grew 46 percent year over year to $0.51
 
  Non-GAAP adjusted net income per diluted share grew 37 percent year over year to $0.63
Venlo, the Netherlands, April 28, 2011 — Vistaprint N.V. (Nasdaq: VPRT), a leading online provider of professional marketing products and services to micro businesses and the home, today announced financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, the third quarter of its 2011 fiscal year.
“Vistaprint just completed a very strong third quarter,” said Robert Keane, president and chief executive officer. “Earnings exceeded our expectations for three reasons: total revenue that was higher than our previous guidance, gross margin improvements that are the result of prior decisions to invest in manufacturing and procurement capabilities, and a delay in the timing of planned operating expenses.”

Keane continued, “Additionally, though it is still very early, we are progressing against the multi-year growth strategy we outlined at our recent investor day in New York. During the quarter, we researched and tested initiatives to deliver greater value to our customers; we moved forward to further drive manufacturing excellence; we invested more in established marketing channels; and we tested investments in new marketing channels.”
Financial Metrics:
    Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 grew to $203.7 million, a 23 percent increase over revenue of $166.0 million reported in the same quarter a year ago.

    GAAP net income per diluted share for the third quarter was $0.51, a 46 percent increase versus $0.35 in the same quarter a year ago.
 
    Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the third quarter, which excludes share-based compensation expense and its related tax effect, was $28.2 million, or 13.8 percent of revenue, a 31 percent increase compared to $21.5 million, or 12.9 percent of revenue in the same quarter a year ago.

    Conversion rates were 7.3 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to 5.9 percent in the same quarter a year ago.
“With three quarters of good execution behind us, we believe that we will deliver stronger than previously anticipated revenue and earnings results for the full fiscal year,” said Ernst Teunissen, chief financial officer. “Therefore, we are raising our fiscal 2011 revenue and earnings guidance to reflect our recent performance and outlook for the fourth quarter. Our guidance factors in our plan to make additional investments in the fourth quarter to drive longer-term growth that are in line with our well-established financial strategy of targeting annual, not quarterly, EPS objectives.”
Financial Guidance as of April 28, 2011:
Based on current and anticipated levels of demand, the company expects the following financial results:
Revenue
    For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, ending June 30, 2011, the company expects revenue of approximately $202 million to $207 million.
 
    For the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, the company expects revenue of approximately $810 million to $815 million.

About non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement Vistaprint’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Vistaprint has used the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by Securities and Exchange Commission (or SEC) rules: non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income per diluted share, free cash flow, and constant currency revenue growth. The items excluded from the non-GAAP adjusted net income measurements are share-based compensation expense and its related tax effect. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment, purchases of intangible assets, and capitalization of software and website development costs. Constant currency revenue growth is estimated 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.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included at the end of this release. The tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures.
Vistaprint’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information in assessing our performance and when forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also have facilitated

management’s internal comparisons to Vistaprint’s historical performance and our competitors’ operating results.
Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures as a courtesy to investors. However, to gain a more complete understanding of the company’s financial performance, management does (and investors should) rely upon GAAP statements of operations and cash flow.
