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 uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income per diluted share. The presentation of this 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 table captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included at the end of this release.

VistaPrint’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our core business operating results. VistaPrint believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing VistaPrint’s performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to VistaPrint’s historical performance and our competitors’ operating results. VistaPrint believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. Management uses these supplemental measures to evaluate performance period over period and to analyze the underlying trends in the Company’s business and to establish operational goals and forecasts that are used in allocating resources.

VistaPrint expects to compute its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year. The accompanying table has more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-

 

Page 6 of 12


GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures. The items excluded from the non-GAAP measurements are share-based compensation expenses.

Share-based compensation expense

VistaPrint adopted SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payments, on July 1, 2005 and began expensing the fair value of share option grants issued to employees and directors. Prior to that date, the Company had accounted for share option grants under the provisions of APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and therefore had not recorded any compensation expense related to such grants. Management has excluded share-based compensation expense from the non-GAAP measurements for fiscal year 2007 and 2008 to facilitate comparison and analysis to historical performance and our competitors’ operating results.

Although management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful to understanding the Company’s financial performance, to gain a complete picture of all effects on the Company’s financial performance from any and all events, management does (and investors should) rely upon the GAAP statement of operations.
