Management
Thank you Peter, and welcome to everyone joining us. VistaPrint not only just turned in another very strong quarter, we also finished up yet another very strong fiscal year. So I will start with a review of our multi-year financial performance, followed by operating highlights from the past twelve months. Then I will turn to our strategy and some of our goals for the upcoming fiscal year. Last but not least, I will discuss our continued efforts to address the needs of our three key interdependent constituents: our customers, our employees, and our shareholders. After that, Harp will comment on the year and go over our financial highlights, and then Mike will review our financial and operating results in detail along with our financial guidance. Later, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern, we will host a separate question and answer session that you can access through a link on the Investor Relations section of www.vistaprint.com. Now, let’s review the fiscal year that we just ended. VistaPrint was very successful in fiscal year 2008: revenues grew 57% versus fiscal year 2007, with record growth in absolute dollar terms. In spite of the macroeconomic headwinds we have all heard so much about, VistaPrint added almost as much incremental revenue this year as we generated in all of fiscal 2006. Fiscal 2008 was also another banner year for profits. We believe this reflects the strong financial discipline which is a core element of VistaPrint’s culture. Non-GAAP net income, which excludes share based compensation, grew 53% to $55 million. Our GAAP net income grew 47% to almost $40 million, up from $27 million in the prior year. Looking back over the past six years illustrates the magnitude of VistaPrint’s growth. Our revenues are up more than tenfold and our net income has increased about a hundredfold. The more recent past is remarkable as well. We have multiplied both revenues and net income, excluding share based compensation and by about 2.5 times over the past two fiscal years. Since our IPO in September 2005, we have targeted both high revenue growth and very strong profit growth. We have consistently delivered on these objectives. Our results demonstrate the thriving good health and competitive strength of VistaPrint’s business. In each of the last three years, we have increased net income by over 40% per year, and we expect to continue to show strong earnings growth in fiscal 2009 and beyond. Turning to earnings per share, consistent with our strategy, we have shown strong and steady growth here as well. We think EPS and high returns on capital are among the most important long term drivers of share price appreciation. Over the last two fiscal years, we have increased non-GAAP EPS by 119% and GAAP EPS by 93%. In the year just ended, we increased our GAAP EPS by 45% and our non-GAAP EPS by 51%, which are the fastest rates, on a full year basis, in our history as a public company. Beyond our strong and disciplined financial performance, FY 2008 was very strong operationally. We acquired approximately 4.5 million new customers at stable per customer acquisition costs. This was an increase of approximately 50% over FY 2007, and a demonstration of the power of our expanding value proposition and the large size of our market opportunity. We also expanded our reach by rolling out our strategic partnership with OfficeMax and entering a new strategic partnership with Intuit. We expect both to drive incremental order volumes and provide a foundation for additional strategic partnerships. We greatly expanded our talent base, and the strength of the organization, by recruiting a record number of executives, engineers, marketing professionals and other valued employees. We reorganized our business into two geographically focused business units to capitalize on our worldwide market opportunity. Growth was strong in the US, but even stronger elsewhere. Our non-US revenue growth rate in fiscal 2008 was 84%; currency adjusted, which excludes the revenue benefit we gained from the falling dollar, it was 66%. We credit much of this success to the work done in our Barcelona office and our Dutch facility, and believe that our European growth opportunity remains in its early stages. As I will discuss in a few moments, we broadened our customer value proposition to offer a turnkey marketing solution for small businesses, which we believe puts us in an even stronger competitive position and delivers value beyond the sum of its parts to our customers. As part of this effort, we launched a number of significant new products which I will also review in a moment. As proud as we are of these FY ‘08 successes, we are focused on the future. So, I will spend the rest of my time today discussing our growth strategy and how that strategy has evolved to continue to meet the needs of our three key constituents: our customers, employees and shareholders. When we launched our US website over eight years ago, we offered only business cards. During the following years we expanded into a number of other high quality printed products, all sold in small quantities at market-leading prices. This was a strong value proposition that generated substantial growth. We then expanded our customer value proposition through better, easier, self-service graphic content, and improvements to our browser-based design software. Customers continued to buy more from us, driven by these value-added differentiators and by a constantly broader set of printed products that enabled them to benefit from an integrated brand identity. Over the past two years, we have expanded once again, this time to offer turnkey marketing solutions that help small businesses grow their business. By expanding our scope, we believe we have made our value proposition more attractive to our customers and harder for our competitors to replicate. In fact, we know of no other significant competitor offering a comparably broad set of products and services, much less a turnkey marketing solution for small businesses. We have implemented this strategy by introducing a wide variety of new products and services that address an increasing subset of our customers’ total marketing spending. Shareholders who have been following our progress for several years may remember that we first introduced this type of chart in November 2006. It represents the breakdown of spending categories in our customers “marketing wallet”: what they purchase not only from VistaPrint but also from other companies as well. As recently as in 2006, VistaPrint sold only print products and we are only just beginning to scale our small business holiday product line. Since then, we have steadily developed and launched new products and services that broaden our market reach. Not too long ago, we were limited to market categories that accounted for slightly more than half our customers’ marketing spending. Now, thanks to the rapid-fire introduction of new products and services, we address a significantly greater percentage of their marketing spending. In the last 18 months, we have expanded our scope of services to include apparel, promotional products, calendars, creative design services, mailing services, signage, and website design and hosting. We have successfully entered new product categories and launched new products by leveraging our cross selling expertise, our powerful content matching technologies, our advanced production facilities, our sophisticated technology infrastructure, and our high volume customer service operations. Our value proposition continues to evolve and to impress our customers. Our vision is to transform the ability of small businesses to design and procure coordinated, cohesive and highly effective marketing products and services across many different categories. Because of this unique value proposition, and because of continuous improvements in our more established product lines and capabilities, we have continued to rapidly and profitably increase our market share and our competitive advantages. We believe that we have gotten bigger, faster, than any of our competitors. Looking forward to fiscal 2009, we expect more of the same. First and foremost, we expect a continuation of our many-year trend of strong growth in profitability and revenues. Operationally, we look to acquire yet another record number of new customers at attractive costs, to develop and deploy an even more compelling customer value proposition founded on the continued expansion of our turnkey marketing solutions, including more products and more services, and to make continued progress in developing new channels and strategic partners. We also plan to substantially increase our customer service and “do-it-for-you” graphic design and copywriting capabilities. We believe VistaPrint is already strong in customer service but that, in the future, we can make service quality yet another major competitive differentiator. VistaPrint enjoys significant cost advantages in our service operations thanks to our high quality labor force in Jamaica, our large scale of daily customer interactions, and our proprietary technologies. By expanding to provide do-it-for-you design and copywriting services, and by ramping up the level of our traditional customer service activities, we seek to leverage our cost-competitive service resources to further improve VistaPrint’s value proposition. We believe that this can, in-turn, drive more revenues and more profit for our shareholders. To do so, in Fiscal year 2009 we expect to make multiple service-focused investments. For English-speaking markets, we will be expanding our already significant operations in Jamaica by beginning construction on a new, state of the art service center facility in Montego Bay. This new facility is expected to meet our English-speaking market needs for several years to come. In non-English speaking markets, we have not previously provided the same levels of support that we do for Anglophone countries. However, at VistaPrint’s current scale and volume in Europe, we believe the economics now justify the opening of service centers to support many of our non-English speaking European markets as well, such as Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Spain. In all of these markets, as well as in our Anglophone markets, we intend to expand and improve our service levels to attract and retain customers. Our experience in the US market has shown that service investments are well worth the investment. We are proud of the accomplishments of fiscal 2008 and we are excited about fiscal 2009. We are most excited by our steadfast belief that we are building an enduring business institution that can transform the way small businesses market themselves. We said many times that we think we are just at the beginning of what we expect to be a long and rewarding journey. We know that success requires the support of three interdependent groups: our customers, our employees and our shareholders. We believe that the more we satisfy all three, the more successful we will become. For our customers, we seek to continuously improve and expand our value proposition, and in doing so, transform small business marketing. Serving our customers helps us meet our employees’ needs by offering rewarding career opportunities, personal growth and competitive remuneration. In doing so, VistaPrint seeks to be an employer of choice who demands excellence in return. We believe satisfying our customers and employees is required to run a healthy business that builds lasting shareholder value, which we expect to grow over time in line with our anticipated high returns in capital and earnings per share growth. In each of the twelve quarters we have reported as a public company, we have achieved our revenue and earnings goals, generally meeting or exceeding the top end of our EPS and revenue guidance ranges. The past quarter was another example of the health of our business and our ability to deliver, even against challenging prior-year comparisons, tough macroeconomic conditions and adverse currency movements which materially reduced our gross margins. Once again, we exceeded our top and bottom line guidance. Our net margins expanded. Our cash flows from operations remained very strong. Our ROIC was excellent. We have begun generating positive free cash flow, despite funding substantial facilities expansions in each of the last two years which are required as part of our disciplined, profitable drive for market share. The guidance that Mike will walk you through shortly shows that once again our business model works. We are guiding to continued high growth in revenues, earnings and EPS, with stable operating and net margins, at stable to potentially lower capital intensity with higher free cash flow. VistaPrint has a strong culture of financial discipline, and a many-year track record of meeting our strategic and financial objectives. We certainly expect that both our financial discipline and our track record will continue into fiscal year 2009, and well beyond. Now I will turn the presentation over to Harp and to Mike for their comments. Harp?
