Item 1. Business

Overview & Strategy

Cimpress is a strategically focused group of more than a dozen businesses that specialize in mass customization, via which we deliver large volumes of individually small-sized customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, photo merchandise, invitations and announcements, writing instruments, packaging, apparel and other categories. Mass customization is a core element of the business model of each Cimpress business. Stan Davis, in his 1987 strategy manifesto “Future Perfect” coined the term mass customization to describe “generating an infinite variety of goods and services, uniquely tailored to customers”. In 2001, Tseng & Jiao defined mass customization as “producing goods and services to meet individual customers’ needs with near mass production efficiency”. We discuss mass customization in more detail further below.

We have grown substantially over the past decade, from $0.7 billion of revenue in fiscal year 2010 to $2.5 billion of revenue in fiscal year 2020, and as we have grown we have achieved important benefits of scale. However, we also believe it is critical for us to “stay small as we get big”. By this we mean that we need to serve customers and act and compete with focus, nimbleness and speed that is typical of smaller, entrepreneurial firms but often not typical of larger firms. This is because we face intense competition across all our businesses, and we must constantly and rapidly improve the value we deliver to customers. To stay small as we get big, our strategy calls for us to pursue a deeply decentralized organizational structure which delegates responsibility, authority and resources to the CEOs and managing directors of our various businesses.

Specifically, our strategy is to invest in and build customer-focused, entrepreneurial mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized, autonomous manner. We drive competitive advantage across Cimpress through a select few shared strategic capabilities that have the greatest potential to create Cimpress-wide value. We limit all other central activities to only those which absolutely must be performed centrally.

This decentralized structure is beneficial in many ways. We believe that, in comparison to a more centralized structure, decentralization enables our businesses to be more customer focused, to make better decisions faster, to manage a holistic cross-functional value chain required to serve customers well, to be more agile, to be held more accountable for driving investment returns, and to understand where we are successful and where we are not.

The select few shared strategic capabilities into which we invest include our (1) mass customization platform ("MCP"), (2) talent infrastructure in India, (3) central procurement of large-scale capital equipment, shipping services, major categories of our raw materials and other categories of spend, and (4) peer-to-peer knowledge sharing among our businesses. We encourage each of our businesses to leverage these capabilities, but each business is free to choose whether or not to use these services. This optionality, we believe, creates healthy pressure on the central teams who provide such services to deliver compelling value to our businesses.

We limit all other central activities to only those which must be performed centrally. Out of more than 12,900 employees we have fewer than 70 who work in central activities that fall into this category, which includes tax, treasury, internal audit, general counsel, corporate communications, consolidated reporting and compliance, investor relations, capital allocation and the functions of our CEO and CFO. We seek to avoid bureaucratic behavior in the corporate center; however we have developed, through experience, guardrails and accountability mechanisms in key areas of governance including cultural aspects such as a focus on customers or being socially responsible, as well as operational aspects such as the processes by which we set strategy and financial budgets and review performance, or the policies by which we ensure compliance with information privacy laws.

This strategy has proven to be of great value to us during the recent COVID-19 crisis; we could not have reacted as proactively, effectively or quickly had we not put in place our strategy and organizational structure several years ago. Our decentralized model allowed our businesses to respond quickly to local restrictions, customer needs, and the health and safety of our team members, and leaders shared information and best practices across the group. Our shared strategic capabilities in procurement helped us to address supply chain risks and agree to extensions of supplier payments, the mass customization platform helped us to route orders between production facilities when needed due to temporary closures, and our central finance and legal teams secured the financial flexibility to navigate this period of uncertainty.

Our Uppermost Financial Objective

Our uppermost financial objective is to maximize our intrinsic value per share. We define intrinsic value per share as (a) the unlevered free cash flow per diluted share that, in our best judgment, will occur between now and the long-term future, appropriately discounted to reflect our cost of capital, minus (b) net debt per diluted share. We define unlevered free cash flow as free cash flow plus interest expense related to borrowings.

This financial objective is inherently long-term in nature. Thus an explicit outcome of this is that we accept fluctuations in our financial metrics as we make investments that we believe will deliver attractive long-term returns on investment.

We ask investors and potential investors in Cimpress to understand our uppermost financial objective by which we endeavor to make all financially evaluated decisions. We often make decisions in service of this priority that could be considered non-optimal were they to be evaluated based on other financial criteria such as (but not limited to) near- and mid-term revenue, operating income, net income, EPS, adjusted EBITDA, and cash flow.

Mass Customization

Mass customization is a business model that allows companies to deliver major improvements to customer value across a wide variety of customized product categories. Companies that master mass customization can automatically direct high volumes of orders into smaller streams of homogeneous orders that are then sent to specialized production lines. If done with structured data flows and the digitization of the configuration and manufacturing processes, setup costs become very small, and small volume orders become economically feasible.

          The chart illustrates this concept. The horizontal axis represents the volume of production of a given product; the vertical axis represents the cost of producing one unit of that product. Traditionally, the only way to manufacture at a low unit cost was to produce a large volume of that product: mass-produced products fall in the lower right-hand corner of the chart. Custom-made products (i.e., those produced in small volumes for a very specific purpose) historically incurred very high unit costs: they fall in the upper left-hand side of the chart.
Mass customization breaks this trade off, enabling low-volume, low-cost production of individually unique products. Very importantly, relative to traditional alternatives mass customization creates value in many ways, not just lower cost. Other advantages can include faster production, greater personal relevance, elimination of obsolete stock, better design, flexible shipping options, more product choice, and higher quality.

Mass customization delivers a breakthrough in customer value particularly well in markets in which the worth of a physical product is inherently tied to a specific, unique use or application. For instance, there is limited value to a sign that is the same as is used by many other companies: the business owner needs to describe what is unique about his or her business. Likewise, a photo mug is more personally relevant if it shows pictures of someone’s own friends and family. Before mass customization, producing a high-quality custom product required high per-order setup costs, so it simply was not economical to produce a customized product in low quantities.

We believe that the business cards sold by our Vistaprint business provide a concrete example of the potential of our mass customization business model to deliver significant customer value and to develop strong profit franchises in large markets that were previously low growth and commoditized. Millions of very small customers (for example, home-based businesses) rely on Vistaprint to design and procure aesthetically pleasing, high-quality, quickly-delivered and low-priced business cards. The Vistaprint production operations for a typical order of 250 standard business cards in Europe and North America require less than 14 seconds of labor for all of pre-press, printing, cutting and packaging, versus an hour or more for traditional printers. Combined with advantages of scale in graphic design support services, purchasing of materials, our self-service online ordering,

pre-press automation, auto-scheduling and automated manufacturing processes, we allow customers to design, configure, and procure business cards at a fraction of the cost of typical traditional printers with very consistent quality and delivery reliability. Customers have very extensive, easily configurable, customization options such as rounded corners, different shapes, specialty papers, “spot varnish”, reflective foil, folded cards, or different paper thicknesses. Achieving this type of product variety while also being very cost efficient took us almost two decades and requires massive volume, significant engineering investments and significant capital. Business cards is a mature market that, at the overall market level, has experienced continual declines over the past two decades. Yet, for Vistaprint, pre-pandemic, this remained a growing category and was highly profitable, and thus provides an example of the power of mass customization. Even though we do not expect many other products to reach this extreme level of automation, we do currently produce many other product categories (such as flyers, brochures, signage, mugs, calendars, pens, t-shirts, hats, embroidered soft goods, rubber stamps, photobooks, labels and holiday cards) via analogous methods whose volume and processes are well along the spectrum of mass customization relative to traditional suppliers and thus provide great customer value and a strong, profitable and growing revenue stream.

In response to the pandemic, our mass customization capabilities allowed us to pivot our manufacturing to focus on and produce products that are more relevant to the current environment. We began producing products such as masks, face shields, and social distancing signage and introduced relevant product templates. We were able to do this without risk of inventory obsolescence on traditional products since our products are made to order. In addition, during periods in which our manufacturing plants needed to be temporarily closed, our mass customization platform allowed us to reroute orders to other manufacturing locations to ensure they were fulfilled timely.

Market and Industry Background

Mass Customization Opportunity

Mass customization is not a market itself, but rather a business model that can be applied across global geographic markets, to customers from varying businesses (micro, small, medium and large), graphic designers, resellers, printers, teams, associations, groups, consumers and families, to which we offer products such as the following:

Large traditional markets undergoing disruptive innovation

The products, geographies and customer applications listed above constitute a large market opportunity that is highly fragmented. We believe that the vast majority of the markets to which mass customization could apply are still served by traditional business models that force customers either to produce in large quantities per order or to pay a high price per unit.

We believe that these large and fragmented markets are moving away from small traditional suppliers that employ job shop business models to fulfill a relatively small number of customer orders and toward businesses

3

such as those owned by Cimpress that aggregate a relatively large number of orders and fulfill them via a focused supply chain and production capabilities at relatively high volumes, thereby achieving the benefits of mass customization. We believe we are early in the process of what will be a multi-decade shift from job-shop business models to mass customization.

Cimpress’ current revenue represents a very small fraction of this market opportunity. We believe that Cimpress and competitors who have built their business around a mass customization model are “disruptive innovators” to these large markets because we enable small-volume production of personalized, high-quality products at an affordable price. Disruptive innovation, a term coined by Harvard Business School professor Clayton Christensen, describes a process by which a product or service takes root initially in simple applications at the bottom of a market (such as free business cards for the most price sensitive of micro-businesses or low-quality white t-shirts) and then moves up market, eventually displacing established competitors (such as those in the markets mentioned above).

We believe that a large opportunity exists for major markets to shift to a mass customization paradigm and, even though we are largely decentralized, the select few shared strategic capabilities into which we centrally invest provide significant scale-based competitive advantages for Cimpress.

We believe this opportunity to deliver substantially better customer value and to therefore disrupt large traditional industries can translate into tremendous future opportunity for Cimpress. Until approximately our fiscal year 2012, we focused primarily on a narrow set of customers within the list above (highly price-sensitive and discount-driven micro businesses and consumers) with a limited product offering. Through acquisitions and via significant investments in our Vistaprint business, we have expanded the breadth and depth of our product offerings, extended our ability to serve our traditional customers and gained a capability to serve a vast range of customer types.

As we continue to evolve and grow Cimpress, our understanding of these markets and their relative attractiveness is also evolving. Our expansion of product breadth and depth as well as new geographic markets has significantly increased the size of our addressable market opportunity. We base our market size and attractiveness estimates upon considerable research and analysis; however, our estimates are only approximate. Despite the imprecise nature of our estimates, we believe that our understanding is directionally correct and that we operate in an enormous aggregate market with significant opportunity for Cimpress to grow as we continue delivering a differentiated and attractive value proposition to customers.

Today, we believe that the revenue opportunity for low-to-medium order quantities (i.e., still within our focus of small-sized individual orders) in the four product categories below is over $100 billion annually in North America and Europe combined and at least $150 billion annually if you include other geographies and consumer products:

• Small format marketing materials such as business cards, flyers, leaflets, inserts, brochures and magazines. Businesses of all sizes are the main end users of short-and-medium run lengths (per order quantities below 2,500 units for business cards and below 20,000 units for other materials).

• Large format products such as banners, signs, tradeshow displays, and point-of-sale displays. Businesses of all sizes are the main end users of short-and-medium run lengths (less than 1,000 units).

• Promotional products, apparel and gifts including decorated apparel, bags and textiles, and hard goods such as pens, USB sticks, and drinkware. The end users of short-and-medium runs of these products range from businesses to teams, associations and groups, as well as consumers.

• Packaging products, such as corrugated board packaging, folded cartons, bags and labels. Businesses are the primary end users for short-and-medium runs (below 10,000 units).

Our Businesses

Cimpress businesses include our organically developed Vistaprint business, plus previously independent businesses either that we have fully acquired or in which we have a majority equity stake. Prior to its acquisition, each of our acquired companies pursued business models that embodied the principles of mass customization. In other words, each provided a standardized set of products that could be configured and customized by customers, ordered in relatively low volumes, and produced via relatively standardized, homogeneous production processes, at prices lower than those charged by traditional producers.

4

Our businesses collectively operate across North America and Europe, as well as in India, Japan, Brazil, China and Australia. Their websites typically offer a broad assortment of tools and features allowing customers to create a product design or upload their own complete design and place an order, either on a completely self-service basis or with varying levels of assistance. Some of our businesses also use offline techniques to acquire customers (e.g., mail order, telesales). The combined product assortment across our businesses is extensive, including offerings in the following product categories: business cards, marketing materials such as flyers and postcards, digital and marketing services, writing instruments, signage, canvas-print wall décor, decorated apparel, promotional products and gifts, packaging, textiles and magazines and catalogs. Also, we have responded to customer needs with new pandemic-related design templates for existing products as well as launching new products like face masks.

The majority of our revenue is driven by standardized processes and enabled by software. We endeavor to design these processes and technologies to readily scale as the number of orders received per day increases. In particular, the more individual jobs we receive in a given time period, the more efficiently we can sort and route jobs with homogeneous production processes to given nodes of our internal production systems or of our third-party supply chain. This sortation and subsequent process automation improves production efficiency. We believe that our strategy of systematizing our service and production systems enables us to deliver value to customers much more effectively than traditional competitors.

Our businesses operate production facilities throughout the geographies listed above. We also work extensively with several hundred external fulfillers located across the globe. We believe that the improvements we have made and the future improvements we intend to make in software technologies that support the design, sortation, scheduling, production and delivery processes provide us with significant competitive advantage. In many cases our businesses can produce and ship an order the same day they receive it. Our supply chain systems and processes seek to drive reduced inventory and working capital as well as faster delivery to customers. In certain of our company-owned manufacturing facilities, software schedules the near-simultaneous production of different customized products that have been ordered by the same customer, allowing us to produce and deliver multi-part orders quickly and efficiently.

We believe that the potential for scale-based advantages is not limited to focused, automated production lines. Other advantages include the ability to systematically and automatically sort through the voluminous “long tail” of diverse and uncommon orders in order to group them into more homogeneous categories, and to route them to production nodes that are specialized for that category of operations and/or which are geographically proximate to the customer. In such cases, even though the daily production volume of a given production node is small in comparison to our highest-volume production lines, the homogeneity and volume we are able to achieve is nonetheless significant relative to traditional suppliers of the long tail product in question; thus, our relative efficiency gains remain substantial. For this type of long-tail production, we rely heavily on third-party fulfillment partnerships, which allow us to offer a very diverse set of products. We acquired most of our capabilities in this area via our investments in Exaprint, Printdeal, Pixartprinting and WIRmachenDRUCK. For instance, the product assortment of each of these four businesses is measured in the tens of thousands, versus Vistaprint where product assortment is dramatically smaller on a relative basis. This deep and broad product offering is important to many customers.

Our businesses are currently organized into the following five reportable segments:

1. Vistaprint:

Consists of the operations of our Vistaprint-branded websites in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, India and Japan. This business also includes our Webs business, which is managed with the Vistaprint Digital business, and our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions business which serves medium-sized businesses and large corporations, as well as a legacy revenue stream with retail partners and franchise businesses.

Our Vistaprint business helps more than 15 million micro businesses (companies with fewer than 10 employees) create attractive, professional-quality marketing products at affordable prices and at low volumes.

5

Upload & Print:

In order to increase customer focus, nimbleness and competitiveness, in fiscal year 2019 we eliminated a management oversight layer and created two sub-groups of upload and print businesses. We refer to these reportable segments as PrintBrothers and The Print Group, each of which focus on serving graphic professionals: local printers, print resellers, graphic artists, advertising agencies and other customers with professional desktop publishing skill sets.

2. PrintBrothers: Consists of our druck.at, Printdeal, and WIRmachenDRUCK businesses.

3. The Print Group: Consists of our Easyflyer, Exaprint, Pixartprinting, and Tradeprint businesses.

4. National Pen:

Consists of our National Pen business and a few smaller brands operated by National Pen that are focused on customized writing instruments and promotional products, apparel and gifts for small- and medium-sized businesses.

National Pen serves more than a million small businesses annually across more than 20 countries. Marketing methods are typically direct mail and telesales, as well as a small yet growing e-commerce site.

5. All Other Businesses:

With the exception of BuildASign, which is a larger and profitable business, this segment consists of small, early-stage businesses by which Cimpress is expanding to new markets. These businesses have been combined into one reportable segment based on materiality. The early-stage businesses in this segment are subject to high degrees of risk, and we expect that each of their business models will rapidly evolve in function of future trials and entrepreneurial pivoting. Our All Other Businesses reportable segment includes the following:

6

	BuildASign is an internet-based provider of canvas-print wall décor, business signage and other large-format printed products, based in Austin, Texas.
	As the online printing leader in Brazil, Printi offers a superior customer experience with transparent and attractive pricing, reliable service and quality.
	YSD is a startup operation that provides end-to-end mass customization solutions to brands and intellectual property owners in China, supporting multiple channels including retail stores, websites, WeChat and e-commerce platforms to enhance brand awareness and competitiveness, and develop new markets.

Central Procurement

Given the scale of purchasing that happens across Cimpress’ businesses, there is significant value to coordinating our negotiations and purchasing to gain the benefit of scale. Our central procurement team negotiates and manages Cimpress-wide contracts for large-scale capital equipment, shipping services and major categories of raw materials (e.g., paper, plates, ink). The Cimpress procurement team is also available on an as-requested basis to help with procurement improvements, tools and approaches across other aspects of our businesses’ purchases.

We are focused on achieving the lowest total cost in our strategic sourcing efforts by concentrating on quality, logistics, technology and cost, while also striving to use responsible sourcing practices within our supply chain. 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, with an increasing focus on supplier compliance with our sustainable paper procurement policy as well as our Supplier Code of Conduct. 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.

As mentioned, the central procurement team played a crucial role when impacts of the pandemic became prevalent in March 2020. The team partnered with Cimpress suppliers to delay more than $30 million of supplier and lease payments previously due before June 30, 2020. These delays were important given our typical working capital trends, as we would have otherwise experienced cash outflows from working capital in the fourth quarter as revenue declined relative to the last fiscal year.

Technology

Our businesses typically rely on proprietary technology to attract and retain our customers, to enable customers to create graphic designs and place orders on our websites, and to aggregate and produce multiple orders in standardized, scalable processes. Technology is core to our competitive advantage, as without it our businesses would not be able to produce custom orders in small quantities while achieving the economics that are more analogous to mass-produced items.

We are building and using our MCP which is a cloud-based collection of software services, APIs, web applications and related technology offerings that can be leveraged independently or together by our businesses and third parties to perform common tasks that are important to mass customization. Cimpress businesses, and increasingly third-party fulfillers to our various businesses, can leverage different combinations of MCP services, depending on what capabilities they need to complement their business-specific technology. MCP is a multi-year investment that remains in its relatively early stages; however, many of our businesses are leveraging some of the technologies that have already been developed and/or shared by other businesses. The capabilities that are available in the MCP today include customer-facing technologies, such as those that enable customers to visualize their designs on various products, as well as manufacturing, supply chain, and logistics technologies that automate various stages of the production and delivery of a product to a customer. The benefits of the MCP include improved speed to market for new product introduction, reduction in fulfillment costs, improvement of product delivery or geographic expansion, improved site experience, automating manual tasks and avoiding IT expense (through a reduction in expenses related to maintaining/licensing software). Over time, we believe we can generate significant customer and shareholder value from increased specialization of production facilities, aggregated scale from multiple businesses, increased product offerings and shared technology development costs.

7

We intend to continue developing and enhancing our MCP-based customer-facing and manufacturing, supply chain and logistics technologies and processes. We develop our MCP technology centrally and we also have software and production engineering capabilities in each of our businesses. Our businesses are constantly seeking to strengthen our manufacturing and supply chain capabilities through engineering improvements in areas like automation, lean manufacturing, choice of equipment, product manufacturability, materials science, process control and color control.

Each of our businesses uses a mix of proprietary and third-party technology that supports the specific needs of that business. Their technology intensity ranges from significant to light, depending on their specific needs. Over the past few years, an increasing number of our businesses have begun to modernize and modularize their business-specific technology to enable them to launch more new products faster, provide a better customer experience, more easily connect to our MCP technologies, and leverage third-party technologies where we do not need to bear the cost of developing and maintaining proprietary technologies. For example, our businesses are increasingly using third-party software for capabilities such as shopping carts or customer reviews, which are areas that we can benefit from providing a standard e-commerce experience, and are better leveraging engineering resources to focus on technology development from which we derive competitive advantage.

In our central Cimpress Technology team and in an increasing number of our decentralized businesses, we have adopted an agile, micro-services-based approach to technology development that enables multiple businesses or use cases to leverage this API technology regardless of where it was originally developed. We believe this development approach can help our businesses serve customers and scale operations more rapidly than could have been done as an individual business outside Cimpress.

Information Privacy and Security

Each Cimpress business is responsible for ensuring that customer, company and team member information is secure and handled in ways that are fully compliant with relevant laws and regulations. Because there are many aspects of this topic that apply to all of our businesses, Cimpress invests in a central security team that defines security policies, deploys security controls, and provides services and embeds security into the development processes of our businesses. This team works in partnership with each of our businesses and the corporate center to measure security maturity and risk, and provides managed security services in a way that allows each business to address their unique challenges, lower their cost, and become more efficient in using their resources.

Shared Talent Infrastructure

We make it easy, low cost, and efficient for Cimpress businesses to set up and grow teams in India via a central infrastructure that provides all the local recruiting, onboarding, day-to-day administration, HR, and facilities management to support these teams, whether for technology, graphic services, or other business functions. Most of our businesses have established teams in India leveraging this central capability, with those teams working directly for the respective Cimpress business. This is another example of scale advantage, albeit with talent, relative to both traditional suppliers and smaller online competitors that we can leverage across Cimpress.

Competition

The markets for the products our businesses produce and sell are intensely competitive, highly fragmented and geographically dispersed, with many existing and potential competitors. We have very low market share relative to the total. Within this highly competitive context, our businesses compete on the basis of breadth and depth of product offerings; price; convenience; quality; technology; design content, tools, and assistance; customer service; ease of use; and production and delivery speed. It is our intention to offer a broad selection of high-quality products as well as related services at low price points and in doing so, offer our customers an attractive value proposition. Our current competition includes a combination of the following:

• traditional offline suppliers and graphic design providers

• online printing and graphic design companies

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

• wholesale printers

8

• self-service desktop design and publishing using personal computer software

• email marketing services companies

• website design and hosting companies

• suppliers of customized apparel, promotional products, gifts, and packaging

• online photo product companies

• internet retailers

• online providers of custom printing services that outsource production to third party printers

• providers of digital marketing such as social media and local search directories

Today’s market has evolved to be much tougher in terms of competition. This evolution, which has been going on for 20 years, has led to major benefits for the customers in terms of lower prices, faster lead times, and easier customer experience. Cimpress and its businesses have proactively driven, and benefited from, this dynamic. The mass customization business model first took off with small format products like business cards, post cards and flyers, and consumer products like holiday cards. As the model has become better understood and more prevalent, and online advertising approaches more common, the competition has become more intense. We are seeing these types of small format products growing at rates slower than some other product categories, and we continue to derive significant profits from these small format products. Conversely, there are other product areas that have only more recently begun to benefit from mass customization, such as signage, promotional products, apparel and gifts, textiles and packaging. Here, we see higher rates of growth, but with a wider variety of profit outcomes as we continue to scale our offering in these areas. There is also a geographic overlay to these trends. For example, in developing markets like India and Brazil where these products are more recently available in an online marketplace, we see stronger growth across all product areas, whereas the market in countries such as Germany is far more mature and therefore more slow growing.

We anticipate that the overall competitive landscape described above will change as a result of the pandemic. We believe that the shift from traditional to mass customized models may accelerate, and that some of the online competitors that offer a more limited product portfolio or lack scale advantages will have less flexibility to navigate changing customer demand levels. Our businesses have done well during past economic recessions, because we serve our customers with a fundamentally more competitive business model than the highly fragmented, sub-scale traditional competitors. Shelter-at-home experiences are making e-commerce and service-at-a-distance experiences like ours more mainstream. As we have done in past economic downturns, we also have an opportunity to serve millions of individuals who take up self-employment or freelance roles because of our ability to serve the needs of those customers.

Social and Environmental Responsibility

Above and beyond compliance with applicable laws and regulations, we expect all parts of Cimpress to conduct business in a socially responsible, ethical manner. Examples of these efforts are:

• Environmental - We regularly evaluate ways to minimize the impact of our operations on the environment. In terms of combating climate change, we have established and centrally fund a company-wide carbon emissions reduction program to lower the emissions associated with our operations at a rate slightly exceeding the 1.5^oC target pathway, and expect to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040. This commitment expands upon our previous 2°C target, established in alignment with the 2015 United Nations Global Change Conference (COP21 “Paris Climate Accord”), and now includes the emissions from our supply chain (Scope 3). Our plan includes investments in energy-reducing infrastructure and equipment, renewable energy sourcing, and examination of our substrate and logistics choices for further opportunities to reduce total emissions. We are on track to meet this commitment, and we seek to make further improvements each year going forward.

We have converted the vast majority of the paper we print on in our Cimpress-owned production facilities to FSC-certified paper (FSC^® C143124, FSC^® C125299), the leading certification of responsible forestry practices. This certification confirms that the paper we print on comes from responsibly managed forests that meet high environmental and social standards. Currently over 85% of the paper that we print on in our facilities is FSC-certified, and we seek to move that to 100% over time. We have also committed to influencing our third-party suppliers to materially expand their use of responsibly forested paper for the products that they customize on our behalf, as well as using either FSC-certified corrugate or packaging materials containing recycled content from post-consumer sources to help ensure our packaging does not contribute to deforestation.

We also have just committed to improve the profile of our plastic-based packaging and products in line with the targets set by the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment, co-sponsored by the United Nations Environment Programme. This includes a focus on reduced plastic usage, increased recyclability, and support of products that contain recycled materials.

• Fair labor practices - We make recruiting, retention, and other performance management related decisions based solely on merit, based on an individual’s ability to do their job with excellence and in alignment with the company’s strategic and operational objectives. We do not tolerate discrimination on any basis protected by human rights laws or anti-discrimination regulations, and we strive to do more in this regard than the law requires. We are committed to a work environment where team members are treated with respect and fairness, and have invested in education and awareness programs for team members to make further improvements in this area. We value individual differences, unique perspectives and the distinct contributions that each one of us can make to the company.

• Team member health and safety - We require safe working conditions at all times to ensure our team members and other parties are protected, and require legal compliance at a minimum at all times. We require training on – and compliance with – safe work practices and procedures at all manufacturing facilities to ensure the safety of team members and visitors to our plant floors. Given the global impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have held our team member health and safety as a top priority, and have implemented measures such as remote working for members who are able to, restrictions on team member travel to be essential only, and increased safety measures at our manufacturing and customer service centers including additional cleaning and sanitary protocols.

• Ethical supply chain - It is important to us that our supply chain reflects our commitment to doing business with the highest standards of ethics and integrity. Each Cimpress business is responsible to ensure its supply chain does not allow for unacceptable practices such as environmental crimes, child labor, slavery or unsafe working conditions.

More information can be found at www.cimpress.com in our Corporate Social Responsibility section, including links to reports and documents such as our supplier code of conduct, compliance with the UK anti-slavery act and our supply chain transparency disclosure.

Intellectual Property

We seek to protect our proprietary rights through a combination of patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks and contractual restrictions. 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 have registered, or applied for the registration of, a number of U.S. and international domain names, trademarks, and copyrights. Additionally, we have filed U.S. and international patent applications for certain of our proprietary technology.

Seasonality

Our profitability has historically been 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, canvas prints, photobooks, and personalized gifts.

In fiscal 2020, operating income for our second quarter was greater than our operating income for the entire year, due in part to impairments recognized during our third quarter as well as negative impacts from the COVID-19

10

pandemic and related restrictions. Operating income during the second fiscal quarter represented 55%, and 46% of annual operating income in the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Risks Related to Our Business

If our long-term growth strategy is not successful, our business and financial results could be harmed.

We may not achieve our long-term objectives, and our investments in our business may fail to impact our results and growth as anticipated. Some of the factors that could cause our business strategy to fail to achieve our objectives include the following, among others:

• our failure to adequately execute our strategy or anticipate and overcome obstacles to achieving our strategic goals

• our failure to develop or deploy our mass customization platform or the failure of the platform to drive the efficiencies and competitive advantage we expect

• our failure to manage the growth, complexity, and pace of change of our business and expand our operations

• our failure to address and mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business

• our failure to acquire, at a value-accretive price or at all, businesses that enhance the growth and development of our business or to effectively integrate the businesses we do acquire into our business

11

• our inability to purchase or develop technologies and other key assets and capabilities to increase our efficiency, enhance our competitive advantage, and scale our operations

• the failure of our current supply chain to provide the resources we need at the standards we require and our inability to develop new or enhanced supply chains

• our failure to acquire new customers and enter new markets, retain our current customers, and sell more products to current and new customers

• our failure to address performance issues in some of our businesses and markets

• our failure to sustain growth in relatively mature markets

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

• our failure to effectively manage competition and overlap within our brand portfolio

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

• our failure to realize expected returns on our capital allocation decisions

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

• our failure to attract and retain skilled talent needed to execute our strategy and sustain our growth

• general economic conditions

If our strategy is not successful, then our revenue, earnings, cash flow, and value may not grow as anticipated, be negatively impacted, or decline, our reputation and brands may be damaged, and the price of our shares may decline. In addition, we may change our strategy from time to time, which can cause fluctuations in our financial results and volatility in our share price.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major adverse impact, and is expected to continue to have a major adverse impact, on our operations, financial results, customers, markets, and employees.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted our business in a number of material ways, and we expect these impacts to continue. These impacts include, but are not limited to, the following:

• material declines in demand for our products and services, leading to major adverse effects on our revenue, earnings, cash flows, and other financial results

• disruptions in our operations, with many of our employees subject to shelter-in-place orders and other safety measures restricting them from leaving their homes

• large investments of time and resources as our management team focuses on mitigating the effects of the pandemic on our business operations while protecting the health of our employees

Depending on the duration and development of the pandemic, including the possibility of future "waves" of increased infection rates, we could see additional impacts in the future. For example, although our supply chain has not been materially impacted to date, in the future we could experience supply chain disruptions due to restrictions on the operations of our suppliers and travel restrictions including border closures in some jurisdictions. In addition, although we have amended our senior secured credit facility to suspend our financial maintenance covenants for a period of time, if the adverse effects on our financial results continue beyond the suspension period, we could have difficulty complying with our credit facility covenants, which could have a number of negative effects on our business and operations, ranging from limitations on our ability to borrow under the facility to causing us to default under our indebtedness.

12

We cannot predict how the COVID-19 pandemic will develop, how long it and its impacts on economic activity and our business, operations, and markets will continue, or whether the pandemic will lead to a prolonged economic downturn. Although we expect the pandemic to continue to materially adversely impact customers, and therefore our financial results, and prolonged impacts could begin to materially impact suppliers and employees, the extent of the impacts will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and impossible to predict.

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, 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, which requires us to invest substantial amounts of our resources. Our ability to provide a high-quality customer experience is also dependent on external factors over which we may have little or no control, such as the reliability and performance of our suppliers, third-party fulfillers, 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.

We manage our business for long-term results, and our quarterly and annual financial results often fluctuate, which may lead to volatility in our share price.

Our revenue and operating results often vary significantly from period to period due to a number of factors, and as a result comparing our financial results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. We prioritize our uppermost financial objective of maximizing our intrinsic value per share even at the expense of shorter-term results and do not manage our business to maximize current period reported financial results, such as (but not limited to) near- and mid-term revenue, operating income, net income, EPS, adjusted EBITDA, and cash flow. Many of the factors that lead to period-to-period fluctuations are outside of our control; however, some factors are inherent in our business strategies. Some of the specific factors that could cause our operating results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter or year to year include among others:

• investments in our business in the current period intended to generate longer-term returns, where the costs in the near term will not be offset by revenue or cost savings until future periods, if at all

• the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, suppliers, business, and operations

• variations in the demand for our products and services, in particular during our second fiscal quarter, which may be driven by seasonality, performance issues in some of our businesses and markets, or other factors

• currency and interest rate fluctuations, which affect our revenue, costs, and fair value of our assets and liabilities

• our hedging activity

• our ability to attract and retain customers and generate purchases

• shifts in revenue mix toward less profitable products and brands

• the commencement or termination of agreements with our strategic partners, suppliers, and others

• 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 and the rising costs of raw materials such as paper

• our pricing and marketing strategies and those of our competitors

• expenses and charges related to our compensation arrangements with our executives and employees

13

• costs and charges resulting from litigation

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

• changes in our effective income tax rate

• costs to acquire businesses or integrate our acquired businesses

• financing costs

• impairments of our tangible and intangible assets including goodwill

• 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, or may not choose to, adjust operating expenses to offset any revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any shortfall in revenue may cause significant variation in operating results in any period. Our operating results may sometimes be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, in which case the price of our ordinary shares may decline.

We may not be successful in developing and deploying our mass customization platform or in realizing the anticipated benefits of the platform.

A key component of our strategy is the development and deployment of a mass customization platform, which is a cloud-based collection of software services, APIs, web applications and related technology offerings that can be leveraged independently or together by our businesses and third parties to perform common tasks that are important to mass customization. The process of developing new technology is complex, costly, and uncertain and requires us to commit significant resources before knowing whether our businesses will adopt components of our mass customization platform or whether the platform will make us more effective and competitive. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will find new capabilities to add to the growing set of technologies that make up our platform, that our diverse businesses will realize value from the platform, or that we will realize expected returns on the capital expended to develop the platform.

In addition, we are aware that other companies are developing platforms that could compete with ours. If a competitor were to create a more attractive or easier to adopt platform that has the potential to drive more scale advantage than ours does, our competitive position could be harmed.

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

We are a global company with production facilities, offices, and localized websites in many countries across six continents, and we manage our businesses and operations in a decentralized, autonomous manner. We expect to establish operations, acquire or invest in businesses, and sell our products and services in additional markets and geographic regions, including emerging markets, where we may have limited or no experience. We may not be successful in all markets and 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, decentralization, and expansion, including, among others:

• difficulty managing operations in, and communications among, multiple businesses, 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

• our failure to improve and adapt our financial and operational controls and systems to manage our decentralized businesses and comply with our obligations as a public company

14

• the challenge of complying with disparate laws in multiple countries, such as local regulations that may impair our ability to conduct our business as planned, protectionist laws that favor local businesses, and restrictions imposed by local labor laws

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

• challenges of working with local business partners

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

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

• exposure to corrupt business practices that may be common in some countries or in some sales channels and markets, such as bribery or the willful infringement of intellectual property rights

• difficulty repatriating cash from some countries

• difficulty importing and exporting our products across country borders and difficulty complying with customs regulations in the many countries where we sell products

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

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

There is considerable uncertainty about the economic and regulatory effects of the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union (commonly referred to as "Brexit"). The UK is one of our largest markets in Europe, but we currently ship many products to UK customers from EU countries. If Brexit results in greater restrictions on imports and exports between the UK and the EU or increased regulatory complexity, then our operations and financial results could be negatively impacted.

In addition, we are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that may impact items such as the translation of our revenue 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, our reporting currency. The hedging activities we engage in may not mitigate the net impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations, and our financial results may differ materially from expectations as a result of such fluctuations.

Failure to protect our information systems and the confidential information of our customers, employees, and business partners against security breaches or thefts could damage our reputation and brands, subject us to litigation and enforcement actions, and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

Our business involves the receipt, storage, and transmission of customers' personal and payment information, as well as confidential information about our business, employees, suppliers, and business partners, some of which is entrusted to third-party service providers, partners, and vendors. Our information systems and those of third parties with which we share information are vulnerable to an increasing threat of cyber security risks, including physical and electronic break-ins, computer viruses, and phishing and other social engineering scams, among other risks, and these vulnerabilities may be heightened during the COVID-19 pandemic when many of our employees are working from home and a number of our offices are largely empty. As security threats evolve and become more sophisticated and more difficult to detect and defend against, a hacker or thief may defeat our security measures, or those of our third-party service provider, partner, or vendor, and obtain confidential or personal information. We or the third party may not discover the security breach and theft of information for a significant period of time after the breach occurs. We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches and thefts of data or to address problems caused by breaches or thefts, and we may not be able to anticipate cyber attacks or implement adequate preventative measures. Any compromise or breach of our information systems or the information systems of third parties with which we share information could, among other things:

15

• damage our reputation and brands

• expose us to losses, remediation costs, litigation, enforcement actions, and possible liability

• result in a failure to comply with legal and industry privacy regulations and standards

• lead to the misuse of our and our customers' and employees' confidential or personal information

• cause interruptions in our operations

• cause us to lose revenue if existing and potential customers believe that their personal and payment information may not be safe with us

We are subject to the laws of many states, countries, and regions and industry guidelines and principles governing the collection, use, retention, disclosure, sharing, and security of data that we receive from and about our customers and employees. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with any of these laws, guidelines, or principles could result in actions against us by governmental entities or others, a loss of customer confidence, and damage to our brands, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, the regulatory landscape is constantly changing, as various regulatory bodies throughout the world enact new laws concerning privacy, data retention, data transfer and data protection, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act that recently became effective. Complying with these varying and changing requirements could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business and operating results.

Acquisitions and strategic investments may be disruptive to our business.

An important way in which we pursue our strategy is to selectively acquire businesses, technologies, and services and make minority investments 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.

Our acquisitions and strategic investments may fail to achieve our goals.

An acquisition, minority investment, or joint venture may fail to achieve our goals and expectations for a number of reasons including the following:

• The business we acquired or invested in may not perform as well as we expected.

• We may overpay for acquired businesses, which can, among other things, negatively affect our intrinsic value per share.

• We may fail to integrate acquired businesses, technologies, services, or internal systems effectively, or the integration may be more expensive or take more time than we anticipated.

• The management of our acquired businesses, minority investments, and joint ventures may be more expensive or may take more resources than we expected.

• We may not realize the anticipated benefits of integrating acquired businesses into our mass customization platform.

• We may encounter cultural or language challenges in integrating an acquired business or managing our minority investment in a business.

• 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.

16

We generally assume the liabilities of businesses we acquire, which could include liability for an acquired business' violation of law that occurred before we acquired it. In addition, we have historically acquired smaller, privately held companies that may not have as strong a culture of legal compliance or as robust financial controls as a larger, publicly traded company like Cimpress, and if we fail to implement adequate training, controls, and monitoring of the acquired companies, we could also be liable for post-acquisition legal violations.

Our acquisitions and minority investments can negatively impact our financial results.

Acquisitions and minority investments can be costly, and some of our acquisitions and investments may be dilutive, leading to reduced earnings. Acquisitions and investments can result in increased expenses including impairments of goodwill and intangible assets if financial goals are not achieved, assumptions of contingent or unanticipated liabilities, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and increased tax costs.

In addition, the accounting for our acquisitions and minority investments requires us to make significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions that can change from period to period, based in part on factors outside of our control, which can create volatility in our financial results. For example, we often pay a portion of the purchase price for our acquisitions in the form of an earn out based on performance targets for the acquired companies or enter into obligations or options to purchase noncontrolling interests in our acquired companies or minority investments, which can be difficult to forecast. If in the future our assumptions change and we determine that higher levels of achievement are likely under our earn outs or future purchase obligations, we will need to pay and record additional amounts to reflect the increased purchase price. These additional amounts could be significant and could adversely impact our results of operations.

Furthermore, provisions for future payments to sellers based on the performance or valuation of the acquired businesses, such as earn outs and options to purchase noncontrolling interests, can lead to disputes with the sellers about the achievement of the performance targets or valuation or create inadvertent incentives for the acquired company's management to take short-term actions designed to maximize the payments they receive instead of benefiting the business. In addition, strong performance of the underlying business could result in material payments pursuant to earn-out provisions or future purchase obligations that may or may not reflect the fair market value of the asset at that time.

If we are unable to attract new and repeat customers in a cost-effective manner, 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. Our various businesses rely on a variety of methods to do this including drawing visitors to our websites, promoting our products and services through search engines such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo!, email, direct mail, advertising banners and other online links, broadcast media, telesales and word-of-mouth customer referrals. If the search engines on which we rely modify their algorithms or terminate their relationships with us, or if the prices at which we may purchase listings increase, then our costs could increase, and fewer customers may click through to our websites. If links to our websites are not displayed prominently in online search results, if fewer customers click through to our websites, if our direct mail marketing campaigns are not effective, or if the costs of attracting customers using any of our current methods significantly increase, then our ability to efficiently attract new and repeat customers would be reduced, our revenue and net income could decline, and our business and results of operations would be harmed.

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

Our profitability has historically been 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. In addition, our National Pen business has historically generated nearly all of its profits during the December quarter. Our operating income during the second fiscal quarter represented 217%, 55%, and 46% of annual operating income in the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019, and 2018. 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 leases, and increases in the number of temporary and permanent employees. Lower than expected sales during the second quarter have a disproportionately large impact on our operating results and financial condition for the full fiscal

17

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 or we experience inefficiencies in our production, then our costs may be significantly higher, and 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.

Our hedging activity could negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows, or leverage.

We have entered into derivatives to manage our exposure to interest rate and currency movements. If we do not accurately forecast our results of operations, execute contracts that do not effectively mitigate our economic exposure to interest rates 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. Also, our hedging objectives may be targeted at improving our non-GAAP financial metrics, which could result in increased volatility in our GAAP results. Since some of our hedging activity addresses long-term exposures, such as our net investment in our subsidiaries, the gains or losses on those hedges could be recognized before the offsetting exposure materializes to offset them. This could result in our having to borrow to settle a loss on a derivative without an offsetting cash inflow, potentially causing volatility in our cash or debt balances and therefore our leverage.

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

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

• fire, natural disasters, or extreme weather

• pandemic or other public health crisis

• labor strike, work stoppage, or other issues 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

• human error, including poor managerial judgment or oversight

Any interruptions to our systems or operations could result in lost revenue, increased costs, negative publicity, damage to our reputations and brands, 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 their business increases with no assurance that their revenue will increase.

18

We face intense competition, and our competition may continue to increase.

The markets for our products and services are intensely competitive, highly fragmented, and geographically dispersed. The competitive landscape for e-commerce companies and the mass customization market continues to change as new e-commerce businesses are introduced, established e-commerce businesses like Amazon enter the mass customization market, and traditional “brick and mortar” businesses establish an online presence. Competition may result in price pressure, increased advertising expense, reduced profit margins, and loss of market share and brand recognition, any of which could substantially harm our business and financial results.

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, significantly greater financial, marketing, and other resources, or willingness to operate at a loss while building market share. Many of our competitors currently work together, and additional competitors may do so in the future through strategic business agreements or acquisitions. 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 financial results. It is possible, however, that such ventures will be unsuccessful and that our competitive position and financial results 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 is sensitive to price for almost all of our businesses, and changes in our pricing strategies, including shipping pricing, have had a significant impact on the numbers of customers and orders in some regions, which in turn affects our revenue, profitability, and results of operations. Many factors can significantly impact our pricing and marketing strategies, including the costs of running our business, the costs of raw materials, our competitors' pricing and marketing strategies, and the effects of inflation. If we fail to meet our customers' price expectations, our business and results of operations may suffer.

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, or 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 for claims for harm to health or property or for natural resource damages arising out of contamination or exposure to hazardous substances.

In some cases we pursue self-imposed socially responsible policies that are more stringent than is typically required by laws and regulations, for instance in the areas of worker safety, team member social benefits and environmental protection such as carbon reduction initiatives. The costs of this added SHE effort are often substantial and could grow over time.

The failure of our business partners to use legal and ethical business practices could negatively impact our business.

We contract with multiple business partners in an increasing number of jurisdictions worldwide, including sourcing the raw materials for the products we sell from an expanding number of suppliers and contracting with third-party merchants and manufacturers for the placement and fulfillment of customer orders. We require our suppliers, fulfillers, and merchants to operate in compliance with all applicable laws, including those regarding corruption, working conditions, employment practices, safety and health, and environmental compliance, but we cannot control their business practices. We may not be able to adequately vet, monitor, and audit our many

19

business partners (or their suppliers) throughout the world, and our decentralized structure heightens this risk, as not all of our businesses have equal resources to manage their business partners. If any of them violates labor, environmental, or other laws or implements business practices that are regarded as unethical or inconsistent with our values, our reputation could be severely damaged, and our supply chain and order fulfillment process could be interrupted, which could harm our sales and results of operations.

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 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 key employees places a strain on members of our management team, who in some cases need to step in and support an additional business or function, and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives. Our failure to recruit, attract, and retain suitably qualified individuals to fill open roles or to adequately plan for succession could have an adverse effect on our ability to implement our business plan.

Our credit facility and the indentures that govern our notes restrict our current and future operations, particularly our ability to respond to changes or to take certain actions.

Our senior secured credit facility, the indenture that governs our 7.0% senior unsecured notes due 2026, and the indenture that governs our 12.0% senior secured notes due 2025, which we collectively refer to as our debt documents, contain a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us and may limit our ability to engage in acts that may be in our best interest, including restrictions on our ability to:

• incur additional indebtedness, guarantee indebtedness, and incur liens

• pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock

• prepay, redeem, or repurchase certain subordinated debt

• issue certain preferred stock or similar redeemable equity securities

• make loans and investments

• sell assets

• enter into transactions with affiliates

• alter the businesses we conduct

• enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends

• consolidate, merge, or sell all or substantially all of our assets

In May 2020, we amended our credit facility to suspend our financial maintenance covenants under the credit agreement for a period of time ending no later than the date on which we publish our financial results for the quarter ending December 31, 2021 (the Covenant Suspension Period), and during the Covenant Suspension Period there are more restrictive limitations on certain of our activities and actions, including the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, the consummation of certain investments including acquisitions, the making of restricted payments including purchasing our ordinary shares, and the incurrence of capital expenditures.

As a result of these restrictions, we may be limited in how we conduct our business, grow in accordance with our strategy, compete effectively, or take advantage of new business opportunities. In addition, when the financial maintenance covenants in our credit agreement are reinstated after the Covenant Suspension Period ends, we will be required to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy other financial condition tests. Our ability

20

to meet those financial ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond our control, and we may be unable to meet them.

A default under any of our debt documents would have a material, adverse effect on our business.

Our failure to make scheduled payments on our debt or our breach of the covenants or restrictions under any of our debt documents could result in an event of default under the applicable indebtedness. Such a default would have a material, adverse effect on our business and financial condition, including the following, among others:

• Our lenders could declare all outstanding principal and interest to be due and payable, and we and our subsidiaries may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness.

• Our secured lenders could foreclose against the assets securing their borrowings.

• Our lenders under our credit facility could terminate all commitments to extend further credit under that facility.

• We could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.

Our material indebtedness and interest expense could adversely affect our financial condition.

As of June 30, 2020, our total debt was $1,482.2 million. 

Subject to the limits contained in our debt documents, we may be able to incur substantial additional debt from time to time to finance working capital, capital expenditures, investments or acquisitions, or for other purposes. If we do so, the risks related to our level of debt could intensify. Specifically, our level of debt could have important consequences, including the following:

• making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our debt

• limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general corporate requirements

• requiring a substantial portion of our cash flows to be dedicated to debt service payments instead of other purposes, thereby reducing the amount of cash flows available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes

• increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions

• exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as some of our borrowings, including borrowings under our credit facility, are at variable rates of interest

• limiting our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in the industry and marketplaces in which we compete

• placing us at a disadvantage compared to other, less leveraged competitors

• increasing our cost of borrowing

21

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on or refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to economic and competitive conditions and to various financial, business, legislative, regulatory, and other factors beyond our control. We may be unable to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to dispose of material assets or operations, seek additional debt or equity capital, or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. We may not be able to effect any such alternative measures, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

If we cannot make scheduled payments on our debt, we will be in default. Our inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy our debt obligations, or to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, would materially and adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

Our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.

Borrowings under our credit facility are at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate risk, and any interest rate swaps we enter into in order to reduce interest rate volatility may not fully mitigate our interest rate risk. If interest rates were to increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness would increase even if the amount borrowed remained the same, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease. As of June 30, 2020, 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 $0.3 million over the next 12 months.

Purchasers of customized products may not choose to shop online, which would limit our acquisition of new customers that are necessary to the success of our business.

Most of our businesses sell our products and services primarily through the Internet. Because the online market for most of our products and services is not mature, 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 online include the following:

• concerns about buying customized products without face-to-face interaction with design or sales personnel

• the inability to physically handle and examine product samples before making a purchase

• delivery time associated with Internet orders

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

• delayed or lost shipments or shipments of incorrect or damaged products

• a desire to support and buy from local businesses

• limited access to the Internet

• the inconvenience associated with returning or exchanging purchased items

In addition, our internal research shows that an increasing number of current and potential customers access our websites using smart phones or tablets and that our website visits using traditional computers may decline. 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, and we are seeing that customers' increased use of mobile devices to access and use our websites and technologies is having a negative impact on conversion rates, especially in our Vistaprint business, which can lead to a decline in revenue.

22

Border controls and duties and restrictions on cross-border commerce may negatively impact our business.

Many governments impose restrictions on shipping goods into their countries, 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. As a result of these restrictions, we have from time to time experienced delays in shipping our manufactured products into certain countries, and changes in cross-border regulations could have a significant negative effect on our business. For example, the current United States administration has made, and may continue to make, major changes in trade policy between the United States and other countries, such as the imposition of additional tariffs and duties on imported products, and has suggested closing the border between the United States and Mexico. Because we produce most physical products for our United States customers at our facilities in Canada and Mexico and we source most materials for our products outside the United States, including material amounts of sourcing from China, future changes in tax policy or trade relations could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

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 financial results.

We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets, 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 financial results.

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 financial results.

Because most of our businesses depend primarily 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. Existing and future laws or unfavorable changes or interpretations of these laws could substantially harm our business and financial results.

23

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, most 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 may be subject to product liability or environmental compliance claims if people, property, or the environment are harmed by the products we sell.

Some of the products we sell, including products manufactured or supplied by third-party business partners, may expose us to product liability or environmental compliance claims relating to issues such as personal injury, death, property damage, or the use or disposal of environmentally harmful substances and may require product recalls or other actions. Any claims, litigation, or recalls could be costly to us and damage our brands and reputation.

We do not collect indirect taxes in all jurisdictions, which could expose us to tax liabilities.

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 Cimpress is a complex and evolving issue, and in many cases, it is not clear how existing tax statutes apply to the Internet or e-commerce. If a government entity claims that we should have been collecting indirect taxes on the sale of our products in a jurisdiction where we have not been doing so, then we could incur substantial tax liabilities for past sales.

For example, some of our businesses do not currently collect sales tax in all U.S. states where they sell products. Many state governments in the United States have imposed or are seeking to impose sales tax collection responsibility on out-of-state, online retailers, and the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. et al. enables states to consider adopting laws requiring remote sellers to collect and remit sales tax, even in states in which the seller has no physical presence. To the extent that individual states decide to adopt similar legislation, this could significantly increase the collection and compliance burden on Cimpress businesses operating in the U.S. In addition, there is risk that a state government in which a Cimpress business currently is not registered to collect and remit sales tax may attempt to assess tax, interest and penalties relating to prior periods.

Increased focus on environmental sustainability could adversely affect our business, operations, and financial results.

We face risks arising from the increased public focus, including by governmental and nongovernmental organizations, on climate change and environmental sustainability matters, such as packaging and waste, deforestation, and land use. We may face increased pressure to make commitments, set targets, or establish additional goals and take actions to meet them beyond our current plans or be required to comply with new laws and requirements that may require significant expenditures.

24

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 an Irish public limited 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 Cimpress plc 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.

Changes in tax laws, regulations and treaties could affect our tax rate and our results of operations.

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. In addition to the passage of the CARES Act in the United States, there are currently multiple initiatives for comprehensive tax reform underway in key jurisdictions where we have operations, and we cannot predict whether any other specific legislation will be enacted or the terms of any such legislation. However, if such legislation 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.

An example of these changes in tax laws would include the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, significantly altering the US Internal Revenue Code. Guidance continues to be issued clarifying the application of this new legislation. We cannot predict the overall impact that the additional guidance may have on our business, but we continue to analyze how the TCJA, and any regulations or other governmental action with respect thereto, may impact our business and results of operations. It is reasonable to expect that global taxing authorities will be reviewing current legislation for potential modifications in reaction to the implementation of the TCJA. We also continue to assess the impact of the U.S. CARES Act.

Changes in the tax laws of other jurisdictions could arise, including as a result of the base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) project undertaken by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The OECD, which represents a coalition of member countries, has issued recommendations that, in some cases, would make substantial changes to numerous long-standing tax positions and principles. These contemplated changes, to the extent adopted by OECD members and/or other countries, could increase tax uncertainty and may adversely impact our provision for income taxes.

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 transfer pricing agreements among Cimpress plc and its subsidiaries, which establish transfer prices for various services performed by our subsidiaries for other Cimpress group companies. 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.

25

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 Ireland. There can be no assurance that the courts of Ireland would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers based on the civil liabilities provisions of the U.S. federal or state securities laws or that the courts of Ireland hear actions against us or those persons based on those laws. There is currently no treaty between the U.S. and Ireland providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, and Irish common law rules govern the process by which a U.S. judgment will be enforced in Ireland. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any U.S. federal or state court based on civil liability, whether or not based solely on U.S. federal or state securities laws, would not automatically or necessarily be enforceable in Ireland.

In addition, because most of our assets are located outside of the United States and some of our directors and management reside outside of the United States, it could be difficult for investors to place a lien on our assets or those of our directors and officers 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.

Our past purchases of our ordinary shares could subject our shareholders to Dutch withholding tax.

Before becoming an Irish tax resident company, Cimpress’ publicly traded parent company was subject to Dutch tax laws, including the 15% Dutch withholding tax that may be levied on dividends and similar distributions made by Cimpress to its shareholders, and during that time we purchased a number of our ordinary shares. 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 successfully challenge the use of the shares for these purposes, such a purchase of shares may be treated as a partial liquidation subject to the 15% Dutch withholding tax to be levied on the difference between our average paid in capital per share for Dutch tax purposes and the redemption price per share, if higher.

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, 2020 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 in future years.

If a United States shareholder owns 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, if a U.S. person owns (or is deemed to own) at least 10% of the voting power or value of a non-U.S. corporation, or "10% U.S. Shareholder," and if such non-U.S. corporation is a "controlled foreign corporation," or "CFC," then such 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 addition, a 10% U.S. shareholder's pro rata share of other income of a CFC, even if not distributed, might also need to be included in a 10% U.S. Shareholder’s gross income for United States federal income tax (and possibly state income tax) purposes under the "global intangible low-taxed income," or "GILTI," provisions of the U.S. tax law. In general, a non-U.S. corporation is considered a CFC if one or more 10%

26

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, each of our 10% U.S. Shareholders will be required to include in its gross income for United States federal income tax (and possibly state income tax) purposes its pro rata share of our "subpart F income," even if the subpart F income is not distributed by us, and might also be required to include its pro rata share of other income of ours, even if not distributed by us, under the GILTI provisions of the U.S. tax law. 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 in future years.

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.

The ownership of our ordinary shares is highly concentrated, which could cause or exacerbate volatility in our share price.

Approximately 85% of our ordinary shares are held by our top 10 shareholders, and we may repurchase shares in the future (subject to the restrictions in our debt documents), which could further increase the concentration of our share ownership. Because of this reduced liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders could disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously if a large number of our ordinary shares were sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a company with greater trading liquidity that could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price.

PART II.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The ordinary shares of Cimpress plc are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (the "NASDAQ") under the symbol “CMPR.” As of July 31, 2020, there were approximately 12 holders of record of our ordinary shares, although there is a much larger number of beneficial owners.

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.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On November 25, 2019, we announced that our Board had authorized us to repurchase up to 5,500,000 of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the open market (including block trades), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. This repurchase program expires on May 22, 2021, and we may suspend or discontinue our share repurchases at any time. On April 28, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement, which suspended our pre-existing financial maintenance covenants in addition to prohibiting us from repurchasing our shares during the suspension period. Refer to Note 10 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information.

We did not repurchase any of our ordinary shares during the three months ended June 30, 2020 under the program described above.

___________________

(a) For fiscal year 2020, the decrease in reported revenue is primarily due to a significant decline in order volumes starting in March, driven by the economic disruption associated with the COVID-19 pandemic lock downs and related restrictions. Our year-to-date revenue results through February 2020 grew on a reported basis; however we experienced a significant decline in demand starting in March 2020, which worsened in April 2020 before starting to recover in the last two months of fiscal 2020.

(b) Includes the impact of our acquisitions of VIDA on July 2, 2018 and BuildASign on October 1, 2018. See Note 7 in our accompanying financial statements in this Report for a discussion of these acquisitions.

(c) Includes the Albumprinter results through the divestiture date of August 31, 2017. See Note 7 in our accompanying financial statements in this Report for a discussion of this divestiture.

(d) Includes the impact of the acquisition of National Pen on December 30, 2016. During December 2016, we purchased the remaining noncontrolling interest of our Japan business from our joint business partner, Plaza Create Co. Ltd.

(e) Includes the impact of the acquisitions of Litotipografia Alcione S.r.l. on July 29, 2015, Tradeprint Distribution Limited on July 31, 2015, and WIRmachenDRUCK GmbH on February 1, 2016.

(f) During the year ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased 5,002,018 of our own shares, resulting in a decline in our outstanding shares. We are restricted from repurchasing shares during the covenant suspension period under our April 2020 credit facility amendment. See to Note 10 in the accompanying financial statements for additional details.

30

(g) In the periods we report a net loss, the impact of share options, warrants, PSUs, RSUs, and RSAs is not included as they are anti-dilutive. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we entered into a financing arrangement with Apollo Global Management, Inc., which included 7-year warrants with a strike price of $60 per share that have a dilutive impact on our diluted earnings per share. Refer to Notes 2 and 10 in our accompanying financial statements for additional information.

(h) Many of our businesses have a cash conversion cycle that results in current liabilities being higher than current assets. Our net current liabilities (current assets minus current liabilities) have expanded over recent years as we have increased focus on net working capital improvements.

(i) On July 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases, using a modified retrospective transition approach. Under the modified retrospective approach, we recognized any cumulative impacts as of the adoption date within retained earnings on our consolidated balance sheet and we did not adjust the prior comparable period. Upon adoption, we recognized operating lease assets of $169,668. Additionally, $121,254 of previously capitalized costs for our build-to-suit leases, including our Waltham, Massachusetts lease, included in property, plant and equipment, net have been de-recognized and are now classified as operating leases. Refer to Note 2 in the accompanying financial statements for additional details related to the impact of our adoption of the standard.

(j) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and in response to the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, we amended our senior secured credit facility to suspend pre-existing maintenance covenants. Additionally, on May 1, 2020, we issued second lien notes and warrants to raise $300.0 million from funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. via a private placement. We used the proceeds to pay down a portion of the term loan under our senior secured credit facility and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the financing and the above-described amendment.

On February 13, 2020, we completed an additional offering of $200.0 million in aggregate principal of 7.0% senior unsecured notes due 2026. The net proceeds from this add-on offering were used to repay a portion of the indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured credit facility and related transaction fees and expenses.

On June 15, 2018, we completed a private placement of $400.0 million of 7.0% senior unsecured notes due 2026. The proceeds from the sale of the notes were used to repay our existing $275.0 million senior unsecured notes that were due 2022, a portion of our indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured credit facility and other related transaction fees.

See Note 10 in our accompanying financial statements in this Report for additional discussion of each financing transaction. Increases in long-term debt during the periods before fiscal 2020 have largely been driven by the funding of acquisitions including those outlined in Note 7 in our accompanying financial statements and share repurchases.

(k) During the year ended June 30, 2020, total shareholders' equity declined, resulting in a shareholders' deficit, primarily driven by $627,056 of share repurchases during the current fiscal year.

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

This Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The statements contained in this Report that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including but not limited to our statements about the anticipated growth and development of our businesses and revenues during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, the potential effects of the pandemic, the expected effects of the actions we are taking and intend to take to address the pandemic including cost savings, the size of our market and our ability to take advantage of the market opportunity, expectations with respect to the development and efficacy of our mass customization platform, the competitive landscape and our competitive position, the expected effects of the reorganization of our technology team, sufficiency of our liquidity position, legal proceedings, and sufficiency of our tax reserves. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “may,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “designed,” “potential,” “continue,” “target,” “seek” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this Report are based on information available to us up to, and including the date of this document, and we disclaim any obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including but not limited to flaws in the assumptions and judgments upon which our forecasts and estimates are based; the development, severity, and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic; our failure to anticipate and react to the effects of the pandemic on our customers, supply chain, markets, team members, and business; our inability to take the actions that we plan to take or the failure of those actions to achieve the results we expect; loss or unavailability of key personnel or our inability to recruit talented personnel to drive performance of our businesses; unanticipated changes in our markets, customers, or businesses; changes in the laws and regulations, or in the interpretation of laws and regulations, that affect our businesses; our failure to manage the growth and complexity of our business and expand our operations; the willingness of purchasers of customized products and services to shop online; our failure to maintain compliance with the covenants in our debt documents or to pay our debts when due; competitive pressures; general economic conditions; and other factors described in this Report. You should carefully review those factors and also carefully review the risks outlined in other documents that we file from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Executive Overview

Cimpress is a strategically focused group of more than a dozen businesses that specialize in mass customization, via which we deliver large volumes of individually small-sized customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, photo merchandise, invitations and announcements, writing instruments, packaging, apparel and other categories. We invest in and build customer-focused, entrepreneurial mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized, autonomous manner. We drive competitive advantage across Cimpress through a select few shared strategic capabilities that have the greatest potential to create Cimpress-wide value. We limit all other central activities to only those which absolutely must be performed centrally.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised our internal organizational and reporting structure leading to changes in our Vistaprint and All Other Businesses reportable segments. Our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions, Vistaprint India, and Vistaprint Japan businesses, which were previously aggregated based on materiality in our All Other Businesses, are now directly managed within the Vistaprint business. These businesses are close derivatives or adjacencies of the Vistaprint business and leverage the Vistaprint brand, customers, technology, and/or other assets. This change in reporting structure positions them closer to the Vistaprint operations, capabilities, and resources. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we reorganized technology teams that previously existed within our Vistaprint business and our central teams. The reorganization resulted in some team member reductions in both organizations, and the net transfer of 177 team members from Vistaprint to our central Cimpress technology team. This change is intended to free up resources to make more Vistaprint technologies available to other Cimpress businesses in the future, to accelerate Vistaprint's re-platforming efforts, and to reduce costs where no longer necessary. We have revised our presentation of all prior periods presented to reflect our revised segment reporting.

As of June 30, 2020, we have numerous operating segments under our management reporting structure that are reported in the following five reportable segments: Vistaprint, PrintBrothers, The Print Group, National Pen, and All Other Businesses. Refer to Note 16 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information relating to our reportable segments and our segment financial measures.

COVID-19

Through the end of February 2020, Cimpress’ year-to-date revenue and adjusted EBITDA grew over the prior year. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions are impacting our small business customers around the world, which led to materially reduced demand for our products starting in March 2020, but month-over-month demand has been improving through June 2020, as consolidated bookings were down 19% in June, compared to a decline in consolidated bookings of 51% in April.

Our decentralized organizational structure has helped our pandemic response by allowing our decentralized businesses to move quickly to respond to local situations, whether that be related to the health and safety of our team members, reacting to government restrictions and guidelines, or serving our customers' needs. At the same time, our leaders have shared best practices and approaches to pull on the strength of the collective whole. Central teams have provided support, guidance, and a structure for coordination, and our businesses have focused on execution and innovation.

Cimpress moved quickly to respond along several dimensions, including team member health and safety, resiliency in continuing to serve our customers, financial flexibility to weather the effects of the pandemic, and innovation to provide customers and our communities the products they need during this pandemic. All team members who have the ability to do so have been working from home and are doing so productively. In cases where it is not possible for team members to work from home, such as in manufacturing or some customer service roles, Cimpress businesses are ensuring compliance with relevant laws and health guidelines and best practices, such as social distancing, temperature checks, mandatory face masks or face shields, and frequent deep cleaning of facilities. While there have been improvements and some reductions to government restrictions in certain countries, the ultimate duration and scope of the pandemic remains unknown, so we have taken a series of decisive and proactive measures starting in March 2020 including the following:

• Entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement to provide a temporary suspension of prior maintenance covenants and raised new capital to provide a partial pay down to senior secured credit facility lenders;

• Enacted significant cost-reduction and cash-preservation measures;

• Maintained operational continuity to the greatest extent feasible while prioritizing the health and safety of our team members; and

• Protected key investments in technology, data infrastructure and customer value improvements.

We believe the actions we have taken or identified will create the time and financial flexibility to enable us to focus on execution through this pandemic, even if its negative effects were to be deeper and more prolonged than we currently anticipate.

Our near-term outlook has changed significantly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it has had on our customers, and therefore, our results. The timing of the initial impact on demand in March differed by business, with those having significant European exposure impacted earliest, while all segments realized improvements sequentially for the months of May and June 2020. The improvements are the result of the start in many geographies of relaxed government restrictions that has driven more economic activity, in addition to our shift in focus to products and product templates that our customers need in the current environment.

Cost Reductions

We have reduced variable and semi-variable costs generally in line with the reduction in demand. As demand fluctuates, the reduction happens naturally for many of these costs such as shipping costs, payment processing fees, and part of our performance advertising where costs are based on keyword searches and clicks. For other of these costs, reduction requires us to take actions, such as temporarily reducing direct labor in production facilities or service locations or changing payback guidelines on advertising.

In addition, we have taken actions to reduce fixed costs, including, but not limited to, strict hiring limitations across all Cimpress businesses, elimination of discretionary spend such as travel, training and events, reduced work schedules where possible, deferral of all non-essential consulting projects, elimination of non-essential contractors and replacement of cash compensation during the fourth quarter with restricted share units (RSUs) for some team members. Our goal with the fixed cost reductions made to date is to protect key growth investments and

33

as much full-time employment as possible so that when demand begins to recover, we are well positioned to regain momentum. We anticipate that many of these lowered fixed costs will come back into the business when and if activity necessitates such costs including travel or hiring or as the recovery path becomes more certain such that team member benefits can be restored. In fact, we have already resumed hiring in select areas like technology, data science and analytics. While we believe it was appropriate to constrain costs in certain areas, we will continue to be disciplined in adding cost back where it makes sense to do so since we can't be certain of the shape and timing of demand recovery.

Financial Summary

The primary financial metric by which we set quarterly and annual budgets both for individual businesses and Cimpress wide is our adjusted free cash flow before cash interest expense related to borrowing; however, in evaluating the financial condition and operating performance of our business, management considers a number of metrics including revenue growth, constant-currency revenue growth, operating income, adjusted EBITDA, cash flow from operations and adjusted free cash flow. A summary of these key financial metrics for the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the year ended June 30, 2019 follows:

Fiscal Year 2020

• Revenue decreased by 10% to $2,481.4 million.

• Consolidated constant-currency revenue decreased by 9% and decreased by 11% when excluding acquisitions and divestitures completed in the last four quarters.

• Operating income decreased by $107.6 million to $56.0 million.

• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) increased by $13.2 million to $399.8 million.

• Cash provided by operating activities increased by $7.3 million to $338.4 million.

• Adjusted free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) increased by $32.2 million to $244.0 million.

For fiscal year 2020, the decrease in reported revenue is primarily due to a significant decline in order volumes starting in March, driven by the economic disruption associated with the COVID-19 pandemic lock downs and related restrictions. Our year-to-date revenue results through February 2020, grew on a reported basis; however we experienced a significant decline in demand starting in March 2020, which worsened in April 2020 before starting to recover in the last two months of fiscal 2020. Currency exchange rate fluctuations negatively impacted revenue during the current fiscal year.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, operating income decreased by $107.6 million, due to the year over year increase in goodwill impairment charges of $93.3 million, as well as a decline in performance starting in March 2020 driven by the aforementioned impacts of COVID-19, which resulted in a decline in profitability for most of our businesses. While we are not back to pre-pandemic levels of demand, we are steadily recovering, as consolidated bookings were down 19% in June, compared to a decline in consolidated bookings of 51% in April. Prior to March 2020, profitability increased as a result of planned reductions in advertising spend for our Vistaprint and National Pen businesses combined with operational improvements in several of our businesses. Our BuildASign business continued to grow and drive profit improvements even when the pandemic hit the U.S. market as their home decor and pandemic-related signage products showed growth and resiliency, while net investments in our early-stage businesses decreased primarily due to pre-pandemic actions we have taken to improve the efficiency and focus of our Printi business compared to the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA increased as compared to the year ended June 30, 2019, due to the pre-pandemic performance discussed above, but partially offset by the decline in profitability starting in March 2020 due to the impacts from the pandemic. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of the goodwill impairment discussed above, and includes the realized gains or losses on our currency derivatives intended to hedge adjusted EBITDA, and the net year-over-year impact of currency on consolidated adjusted EBITDA was not significant.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Consolidated Revenue

Our businesses generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipment of customized manufactured products. To a much lesser extent (and only in our Vistaprint business) we provide digital services, website design and hosting, and email marketing services, as well as generate a small percentage of revenue from order referral fees and other third-party offerings. For additional discussion relating to segment revenue results, refer to the "Reportable Segment Results" section included below.

_________________

(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. Our reportable segments-related growth is inclusive of inter-segment revenues, which are eliminated in our consolidated results.

(2) Constant-currency revenue growth excluding acquisitions/divestitures, a non-GAAP financial measure, excludes revenue results for businesses in the period in which there is no comparable year-over-year revenue. Revenue from our fiscal year 2019 acquisitions is excluded from fiscal year 2020 revenue growth for quarters with no comparable year-over-year revenue. For example, revenue from BuildASign, which we acquired on October 1, 2018 in Q2 2019, is excluded from revenue growth in Q1 of fiscal year 2019, with no Q1 results in the comparable period, but is included in organic revenue growth starting in Q2 of fiscal year 2020 and will be included in future quarters. Our reportable segments-related growth is inclusive of inter-segment revenues, which are eliminated in our consolidated results.

(3) The All Other Businesses segment includes the revenue of the Albumprinter business until the sale completion date of August 31, 2017, VIDA revenue from its acquisition date of July 2, 2018 through its divestiture date of April 10, 2020, and BuildASign revenue from its acquisition date of October 1, 2018. Constant-currency revenue growth excluding acquisitions/divestitures, excludes the revenue results for VIDA and BuildASign since their acquisition dates and Albumprinter and VIDA through their divestiture dates.

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.

Consolidated Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes materials used by our businesses to manufacture their products, payroll and related expenses for production and design services 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 our businesses sell.

In thousands	Year Ended June 30,
	2020			2019			2018
Cost of revenue	$	1,248,871		$	1,401,344		$	1,279,799
% of revenue	50.3		%	50.9		%	49.4		%

For the year ended June 30, 2020, consolidated cost of revenue decreased by $152.5 million, primarily due to demand-dependent cost of goods sold including third-party fulfillment, material, and shipping costs that have decreased across several of our segments that have been more significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic lock downs and related restrictions. Additionally, we realized approximately $11.6 million of wage offset benefit from government incentives in the fourth quarter. This was partially offset by an increase in the cost of revenue from our BuildASign business, which was acquired on October 1, 2018 and is therefore not included for part of the comparable period, as well as an increase of costs for the remainder of the year, driven by BuildASign's continued revenue growth and resiliency through the pandemic. A majority of our cost of revenue is variable with revenue demand, which contributed to flat year-over-year gross margins for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 despite pandemic-driven reductions in order volumes.

Consolidated Operating Expenses

Technology and development expense

Technology and development expense consists primarily of payroll and related expenses for employees engaged in software and manufacturing engineering, information technology operations and content development, as well as amortization of capitalized software and website development costs, including hosting of our websites, asset depreciation, patent amortization, 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.

During the year ended June 30, 2020, technology and development expenses increased by $16.5 million, as compared to the prior year. This was mainly driven by increased costs of $11.3 million in our central technology

36

teams, primarily due to an increase in headcount, as these teams continue to develop new technologies that are intended to support our businesses, combined with higher operating costs driven by our businesses' increased adoption and usage of our central technology capabilities, which was partially offset by a reduction in travel and training expenses during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Additionally, we had a $2.8 million increase of expense in our Vistaprint business, primarily related to the ongoing rebuild of its technology infrastructure. The increase during the year ended June 30, 2020, was also partially due to $5.2 million in the non-recurring reversal of share-based compensation expense for our supplemental PSUs in the comparative period.

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; direct-mail advertising costs; and third-party payment processing fees. Our Vistaprint, National Pen and BuildASign businesses have higher marketing and selling costs as a percentage of revenue as compared to our PrintBrothers and The Print Group businesses.

Our marketing and selling expenses decreased by $139.8 million during the year ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior year. The decrease from the prior comparative period is primarily due to the reduction of advertising spend in our Vistaprint business of $104.3 million, which was driven by two factors. The first was our reduction in advertising spend throughout the year as we continued our initiative to work to eliminate spend that does not meet our return thresholds. This was combined with our response to the decline in order volumes that started in March 2020, whereby we further reduced our advertising spend by eliminating spend in certain marketing channels, while also tightening our required return thresholds. We also recognized a decrease in marketing costs in our National Pen business of $28.8 million, primarily due to a planned reduction in direct mail prospecting activity as compared to last year's elevated levels, as well as pandemic-related initiatives to lower costs, which included the delay of direct mail marketing campaigns, lower online advertising spend and cost savings initiatives to reduce costs in service centers.

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, strategy, human resources and procurement.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses increased by $20.4 million, as compared to the prior period, primarily due to an increase in consulting costs associated with strategic projects in our Vistaprint business, costs incurred centrally related to the cross-border Irish Merger, and professional fees and costs associated with our May 2020 financing activities. Also included in the $20.4 million increase is additional share-based compensation expense of $8.1 million, primarily due to the reversal of supplemental PSU expense in the comparative period as well as a loss of $1.5 million associated with the sale of our VIDA business on April 10, 2020. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we incurred additional costs from our BuildASign business as that business was only included for nine months of the comparable period.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets

Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of amortization expense associated with separately identifiable intangible assets capitalized as part of our acquisitions, including customer relationships, trade names, developed technologies, print networks, and customer and referral networks.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets decreased by $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the year ended June 30, 2019. The reduction during the year ended June 30, 2020 is due to amortization within our PrintBrothers and The Print Group reportable segments as certain intangible assets became fully amortized during the prior fiscal year, partially offset by additional amortization for our BuildASign business caused by the prior year timing of the acquisition.

37

Restructuring expense

Restructuring expense consists of costs directly incurred as a result of restructuring initiatives, and includes employee-related termination costs, third party professional fees and facility exit costs. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we recognized restructuring expense of $13.5 million, primarily related to the reorganization of our Vistaprint and central technology teams that were intended to better align technology tribes and accelerate the Vistaprint re-platforming efforts, as well as cost savings actions taken by our National Pen business in response to the pandemic. Comparatively, we recognized restructuring expense of $12.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2019, primarily related to actions within our Vistaprint business.

Impairment of goodwill

For the year ended June 30, 2020, we recognized goodwill impairment charges of $100.8 million. We recognized a full goodwill impairment charge for our National Pen and VIDA reporting units, which amounted to $34.4 million and $26.0 million, respectively, as well as a partial goodwill impairment charge for our Exaprint reporting unit of $40.4 million. These impairment charges were primarily due to lower cash flow expectations for each for these business as a result of the decline in demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic lock down and related restrictions when compared to previous estimates. Refer to Note 8 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Other Consolidated Results

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 some of our derivative instruments. In evaluating our currency hedging programs and ability to qualify for hedge accounting in light of 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 execute certain currency derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The following table summarizes the components of other income (expense), net:

In thousands	Year Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2018
Gains (losses) on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments	$	20,564	$	23,494	$	(2,687	)
Currency-related gains (losses), net	2,309		2,506		(19,500		)
Other gains	1		476		1,155
Total other income (expense), net	$	22,874	$	26,476	$	(21,032	)

The decrease in other income (expense), net is primarily due to the currency exchange rate volatility impacting our derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments, in which our Euro and British Pound contracts are the most significant exposures that we economically hedge. We expect volatility to continue in future periods, as we do not apply hedge accounting for most of our derivative currency contracts.

We also experienced currency-related gains due to currency exchange rate volatility on our non-functional currency intercompany relationships, which we may alter from time to time. The impact of certain cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges is included in our currency-related gains (losses), net, offsetting the impact of certain non-functional currency intercompany relationships.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net primarily consists of interest paid on outstanding debt balances, amortization of debt issuance costs, debt discounts, interest related to finance lease obligations and realized gains (losses) on effective interest rate swap contracts and certain cross-currency swap contracts. As part of interest expense, net, we also recognize changes to the estimated future redemption value of our mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests.

38

Interest expense, net increased by $12.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior comparable period. This is due to additional interest expense associated with our senior secured credit facility as a result of our higher debt borrowing levels throughout the year, combined with the additional $200.0 million offering of our 7% senior unsecured notes in February 2020 and issuance of our $300.0 million 12% second lien notes in May 2020. We expect interest expense to increase next fiscal year from the full year impact of the financing transactions described above. Please refer to Note 10 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail.

Partially offsetting the increase in interest expense for the year ended June 30, 2020, is a decrease in interest expense of $7.4 million related to the change in classification of our Waltham, Massachusetts lease upon adoption of ASC 842 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 2 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Income tax (benefit) expense

In thousands	Year Ended June 30,
	2020			2019			2018
Income tax (benefit) expense	$	(80,992	)	$	33,432		$	19,578
Effective tax rate	(2,697.0		)%	26.3		%	29.5		%

Income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 2020 decreased as compared to the prior year primarily due to Swiss Tax Reform, as discussed in more detail below. Also, in addition to a more favorable mix of earnings year-over-year, we recognized tax benefits of $15.7 million related to excess tax benefits from share based compensation, as compared to $1.5 million in fiscal 2019, and $11.2 million for the re-measurement of U.S. tax losses that will be carried back to tax years with higher U.S. federal tax rates under the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("US CARES Act"). We also recognized tax expense of $41.9 million to record a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets and a portion for our Irish deferred tax assets.

On October 25, 2019, the canton of Zurich enacted tax law changes by publishing the results of its referendum to adopt the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF), which we refer to as Swiss Tax Reform. Swiss Tax Reform was effective as of January 1, 2020 and included the abolishment of various favorable federal and cantonal tax regimes. Swiss Tax Reform provided transitional relief measures for companies that lost the tax benefit of a ruling, including a "step-up" for amortizable goodwill, equal to the amount of future tax benefit they would have received under their existing ruling, subject to certain limitations. We recognized a tax benefit of $113.5 million to establish new Swiss deferred tax assets related to transitional relief measures and to remeasure our existing Swiss deferred tax assets and liabilities. We don't expect to realize the majority of this benefit until fiscal 2025 through fiscal 2030.

We believe that our income tax reserves are adequately maintained by taking into consideration both the technical merits of our tax return positions and ongoing developments in our income tax audits. However, the final determination of our tax return positions, if audited, is uncertain and therefore there is a possibility that final resolution of these matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows. Refer to Note 13 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.

Reportable Segment Results

Our segment financial performance is measured based on segment EBITDA, which is defined as operating income plus depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation and amortization related to our Waltham, Massachusetts office lease for prior periods presented); plus share-based compensation expense related to investment consideration; plus earn-out related charges; plus certain impairments; plus restructuring related charges; less interest expense related to our Waltham, Massachusetts office lease for prior periods presented; less gain on purchase or sale of subsidiaries.

% of revenue	27		%	23		%	21		%

Segment Revenue

Vistaprint's reported revenue decline for the year ended June 30, 2020 was negatively affected by a currency impact of 1% for the year ended June 30, 2020, resulting in constant-currency revenue decline of 10%. The revenue decline was primarily driven by the pandemic, resulting in reduced demand starting in March 2020, which worsened in April, but started to recover during the months of May and June. The improvements in May and June are the result of our shift in focus to products and product templates that our customers need in the current environment, but also the start in many geographies of relaxed government restrictions that has driven more economic activity. While we have experienced improved demand in the last two months of the fiscal year, we expect there to be volatility in future demand, as social distancing measures and other restrictions continue to evolve and impact commerce for small businesses. Additionally, prior to March 2020, reductions in advertising spend resulted in declines in revenue from new customers as a result of our targeted elimination of inefficient advertising spend, although we still experienced growth in repeat customer revenue.

Segment Profitability

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the increase to Vistaprint's segment EBITDA was primarily due to a reduction to, and improved efficiency of, advertising spend. Vistaprint also drove improvements to segment EBITDA through new offers, reduced discounting and other operational improvements. Starting in March segment EBITDA was negatively impacted by lower gross profit driven by decreased demand offset by further reductions to advertising spend as well as other operating cost reduction measures. Segment EBITDA for fiscal 2020 was also impacted by increases in technology investments to rebuild Vistaprint's technology infrastructure and consulting projects related to Vistaprint's transformation efforts. Vistaprint's segment EBITDA was also negatively impacted by currency movements during the year.

% of revenue	9		%	10		%	10		%

Segment Revenue

PrintBrothers' reported revenue decline for the year ended June 30, 2020 was negatively affected by a currency impact of 3%, resulting in constant-currency revenue decline, excluding the impact of acquisitions, of 5% for the year ended June 30, 2020. The revenue decline was due to impacts from COVID-19 lock downs and related restrictions, which varied by country. For each business in the group, revenue improved sequentially in May and June as economic activity started to reemerge in many European countries.

Segment Profitability

PrintBrothers' segment EBITDA decreased during the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior comparative period, due primarily to the revenue declines as described above. The decrease was also impacted by increased investments in technology intended to improve the customer value proposition of each business and negative impacts from currency movements, partially offset by operating expense efficiencies earlier in the year as well as the vertical integration of a former supplier in one of our businesses during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

% of revenue	19		%	20		%	20		%

Segment Revenue

The Print Group's reported revenue decline for the year ended June 30, 2020 was negatively affected by a currency impact of 3%, resulting in a decrease in revenue on a constant-currency basis of 13%. The constant-currency revenue decrease was driven by a significant decline in order volumes during the fourth quarter, and in particular our Pixartprinting business that was more significantly impacted by tighter government restrictions in Italy and Spain, where the business has meaningful revenue. For each business in the group, revenue improved sequentially in May and June as economic activity started to resume in many European countries. While we have experienced improved demand in the last two months of the fiscal year, we expect there to be volatility in future demand, as social distancing measures and other restrictions continue to reduce commerce.

Segment Profitability

The Print Group's segment EBITDA decreased during the year ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior period, primarily driven by the revenue decline described above, as well as investments in technology and unfavorable currency impacts, partially offset by efficiency gains from better leveraging the assets of the group through the mass customization platform (MCP).

% of revenue	3		%	5		%	9		%

Segment Revenue

National Pen's reported revenue decrease for the year ended June 30, 2020 was negatively affected by a currency impact of 1% as compared to the prior year, resulting in constant-currency revenue decline of 13% for the year ended June 30, 2020. Revenue was negatively impacted starting in March by the pandemic lock downs and related restrictions, as well as actions taken to defer direct mail advertising campaigns until economic activity improves. Prior to the pandemic, the decline in revenue was also driven by lower direct mail volumes which were expected due to our reductions to our prospecting activity spend targeted at reducing inefficient mail order advertising.

Segment Profitability

The decrease in National Pen's segment EBITDA for the year ended June 30, 2020, was due to the top-line revenue decline described above. A portion of the revenue decline was mitigated by proactive measures to quickly remove variable costs as well as some fixed costs, while protecting key multi-year investments in technology. In addition, we have realized operational improvements, which included the initial steps of migrating our European mail fulfillment from Mexico to Europe to reduce disruptions that occurred in transit during the prior year period. Currency had a negative impact on segment EBITDA for the year ended June 30, 2020.

___________________

(1) Our All Other Businesses segment includes the results of our fiscal 2019 acquisition, BuildASign, from October 1, 2018, and our VIDA acquisition from July 2, 2018 through the divestiture date of April 10, 2020.

With the exception of BuildASign which is a larger and profitable business, this segment consists of multiple small, rapidly evolving early-stage businesses through which Cimpress is expanding to new markets. These businesses are subject to high degrees of risk and we expect that each of their business models will rapidly evolve in function of future trials and entrepreneurial pivoting. These early-stage businesses continue to have operating losses as previously described and as planned.

Segment Revenue

Organic constant-currency revenue, excluding the year-over-year impact of the BuildASign acquisition during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 during which there was no comparative revenue in the year-ago period, increased by 4% for the year ended June 30, 2020. This was primarily driven by growth throughout the year at BuildASign, even during the pandemic with strength in home decor and pandemic-related signage products. All Other Businesses revenue was negatively impacted by a decrease in revenue in our Printi business as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to actions we have taken to improve the efficiency and focus of the business, which included foregoing certain revenue channels that we believe did not have a high probability of earning sufficient returns on the capital and focus they consumed.

Segment Profitability

The improvement in the All Other Businesses segment EBITDA for the year ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior period, was primarily due to EBITDA growth of BuildASign primarily driven by the revenue growth described above and the timing of the acquisition. Additionally, we significantly reduced the losses of our Printi business, due to the fiscal 2019 restructuring of our Printi business, which included clarifying its focus and operating model.

Central and Corporate Costs

Central and corporate costs consist primarily of the team of software engineers that is building our mass customization platform; shared service organizations such as global procurement; technology services such as hosting and security; administrative costs of our Cimpress India offices where numerous Cimpress businesses have dedicated business-specific team members; and corporate functions including our Board of Directors, CEO, and the team members necessary for managing corporate activities, such as treasury, tax, capital allocation, financial consolidation, internal audit and legal. These costs also include certain unallocated share-based compensation costs.

Central and corporate costs increased by $23.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year, driven by increases to share-based compensation of $13.2 million. The increase to share-based compensation is driven by the prior year benefit recognized for the reversal of expense associated our supplemental PSUs, that did not recur in the current period. We also recognized an increase in professional fees of $2.9 million, primarily due to the December 2019 Irish Merger and April 2020 financing activities, an additional $1.2 million of payroll taxes for option exercises, as well as an increase in central technology investments and operating costs driven by our businesses' increased adoption and usage of our central technology capabilities.

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(258,255		)	81,989			(177,757		)

At June 30, 2020, we had $45.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1,482.2 million of debt, excluding debt issuance costs, and debt premiums and discounts. Under the terms of our April 28, 2020 credit facility amendment, we are required to use cash balances in excess of $100.0 million, if any, to repay the revolving loans under our senior secured credit facility.

The cash flows during the year ended June 30, 2020 related primarily to the following items:

Cash inflows:

• Net income of $84.0 million

• Adjustments for non-cash items of $215.0 million primarily related to positive adjustments for depreciation and amortization of $167.9 million, goodwill impairment of $100.8 million, share-based compensation costs of $34.9 million and unrealized currency-related losses of $6.9 million, partially offset by non-cash tax related items of $106.9 million

• Proceeds of debt and warrants of $426.1 million, net of repayments and debt issuance costs

• Proceeds from the settlement of net investment hedges of $29.8 million

• The change in operating assets and liabilities were a source of cash during the period, driven by actions taken in response to the pandemic, which included partnering with suppliers and leaseholders to defer payments, as well as receiving timing relief for indirect taxes and employer taxes in certain jurisdictions.

Cash outflows:

• Purchases of our ordinary shares for $627.1 million

• Capital expenditures of $50.5 million of which the majority related to the purchase of manufacturing and automation equipment for our production facilities and computer and office equipment

• Internal costs for software and website development that we have capitalized of $44.0 million

• Payment of withholding taxes in connection with share awards of $41.7 million

• Payments for finance lease arrangements of $9.5 million

• Payments for acquisitions of $4.3 million, net of cash acquired

Additional Liquidity and Capital Resources Information. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we financed our operations and strategic investments through internally generated cash flows from operations and debt financing. As of June 30, 2020, a portion of our cash and cash equivalents were held by our subsidiaries, and undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries that are considered to be indefinitely reinvested were $36.6 million. We do not intend to repatriate these 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.

Due to the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we took proactive measures to maintain our financial strength and flexibility by raising $300.0 million of capital on May 1, 2020 by issuing second lien notes and warrants. The net proceeds of this capital raise were used to pay down a portion of the term loans under our senior secured credit facility in order to secure the suspension of our quarterly maintenance covenants related to our leverage and interest coverage ratios until the quarter ending December 31, 2021. Refer to Note 10 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details. In response to the pandemic-related decrease in revenue, we have taken actions to reduce cash costs while protecting key investments we were making prior to the pandemic. We have historically allocated a material amount of capital to purchases of our ordinary shares and corporate acquisitions. The April 2020 amendment to our credit facility prohibits us from repurchasing our shares and substantially limits acquisitions for the period in which the financial maintenance covenants associated with our senior secured credit facility are suspended.

We evaluated our liquidity position as of the date of the issuance of our consolidated financial statements and we conclude our financial position, net cash provided by operations combined with our cash and cash equivalents, borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility, and the May 2020 temporary maintenance covenant suspension and capital raise as described in Note 10 will be sufficient to fund our current obligations, capital spending, debt service requirements and working capital requirements over at least the next twelve months.  

Debt. As of June 30, 2020, we had aggregate loan commitments from our senior secured credit facility totaling $998.1 million. The loan commitments consisted of revolving loan borrowings of $422.4 million and term loans of $148.1 million. We have other financial obligations that constitute additional indebtedness based on the definitions within the credit facility. As of June 30, 2020, the amount available for borrowing under our senior secured credit facility was as follows:

_________________

(1) As of June 30, 2020, our pre-existing financial maintenance covenants are suspended and we are in compliance with the new restrictions in place, with the primary maintenance covenant during the suspension period that we must maintain liquidity above $50.0 million. Refer to Note 10 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further description of the restrictions in place during the covenant suspension period.

(2) Share purchases, dividend payments, and corporate acquisitions are subject to more restrictive covenants, and therefore we may not be able to use the full amount available for borrowing for these purposes.

Debt Covenants. As part of the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured facility, we have suspended our pre-existing maintenance covenants, including the total and senior secured leverage covenants and interest coverage ratio covenant through December 31, 2021. Refer to Note 10 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information. As of June 30, 2020, we are in compliance with the applicable restrictions under our credit agreement, senior unsecured notes indenture, and second lien notes indenture in place during the covenant suspension period.

Other Debt. Other debt primarily consists of term loans acquired through our various acquisitions or used to fund certain capital investments. As of June 30, 2020, we had $11.7 million outstanding for other debt payable through March 2025.

___________________

(1) Operating and finance lease payments included above include only amounts which are fixed under lease agreements. Our leases may also incur variable expenses. Refer to our lease accounting policy in Note 2 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information.

(2) Other debt and interest payments include the effects of interest rate swaps, whether they are expected to be payments or receipts of cash. We have excluded the effect of interest rate swaps of $2.0 million within the more than five years category above as that period extends beyond the term of our debt and the interest rate swaps do not yet offset contractual interest payments.

(3) 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 $6.2 million as of June 30, 2020 have been excluded from the contractual obligations table above. For further information on uncertain tax positions, see Note 13 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Operating Leases. We rent office space under operating leases expiring on various dates through 2034. The terms of certain lease agreements require security deposits in the form of bank guarantees and letters of credit in the amount of $2.1 million.

Purchase Commitments. At June 30, 2020, we had unrecorded commitments under contract of $109.7 million. Purchase commitments consisted of third-party web services of $61.7 million, inventory purchase commitments of $21.8 million, commitments for professional and consulting fees of $3.8 million, production and computer equipment purchases of approximately $0.9 million, commitments for advertising campaigns of $1.0 million, and other unrecorded purchase commitments of $20.5 million.

Senior Unsecured Notes and Interest Payments. Our 7.0% senior unsecured notes due 2026 bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and mature on June 15, 2026. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year and has been included in the table above.

Second Lien Notes and Interest Payments. Our 12.0% senior secured notes due 2025 bear interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum and mature on May 15, 2025. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year and has been included in the table above. At our option, we may elect to pay interest on up to 50.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the notes as paid-in-kind and applied to the outstanding principal balance of the notes.

Other Debt and Interest Payments. At June 30, 2020, the term loans of $148.1 million outstanding under our credit agreement had repayments due on various dates through November 15, 2024, with the revolving loans outstanding under our $422.4 million revolving credit facility due on November 15, 2024. Interest payable included in this table is based on the interest rate as of June 30, 2020, and assumes all LIBOR-based 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 and all Prime rate based revolving loan amounts will be paid within a year. Interest payable includes the estimated impact of our interest rate swap agreements.

In addition, we have other debt which consists primarily of term loans acquired through our various acquisitions or used to fund certain capital investments, and as of June 30, 2020 we had $11.7 million outstanding for those obligations that have repayments due on various dates through March 2025.

Finance Leases. We lease certain machinery and plant equipment under finance lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2027. The aggregate carrying value of the leased equipment under finance leases included in property, plant and equipment, net in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020, is $20.8 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $43.5 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, 2020 amounts to $26.7 million.

Other Obligations. Other obligations include deferred payments related to previous acquisitions of $2.3 million in the aggregate.

Additional Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow presented below, and constant-currency revenue growth and constant-currency revenue growth excluding acquisitions/divestitures presented in the consolidated results of operations section above, are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP operating income plus depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation and amortization related to our Waltham, Massachusetts office lease) plus share-based compensation expense plus proceeds from insurance plus earn-out related charges plus certain impairments plus restructuring related charges plus realized gains or losses on currency derivatives less interest expense related to our Waltham, Massachusetts office lease less gain on purchase or sale of subsidiaries. We note that with the adoption of ASC 842, the Waltham, Massachusetts office lease has been reclassified from a build-to-suit lease to an operating lease, and therefore the depreciation and interest expense adjustments that were made in comparative periods will no longer be made beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, as any impact from the Waltham lease will be reflected in operating income. Refer to Note 2 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.    

Adjusted EBITDA is the primary profitability metric by which we measure our consolidated financial performance and is provided to enhance investors' understanding of our current operating results from the underlying and ongoing business for the same reasons it is used by management. For example, as we have become more acquisitive over recent years we believe excluding the costs related to the purchase of a business (such as amortization of acquired intangible assets, contingent consideration, or impairment of goodwill) provides further insight into the performance of the underlying acquired business in addition to that provided by our GAAP operating income. As another example, as we do not apply hedge accounting for certain derivative contracts, we believe inclusion of realized gains and losses on these contracts that are intended to be matched against operational currency fluctuations provides further insight into our operating performance in addition to that provided by our GAAP operating income. We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted free cash flow is the primary financial metric by which we set quarterly and annual budgets both for individual businesses and Cimpress-wide. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment, purchases of intangible assets not related to acquisitions, and capitalization of software and website development costs that are included in net cash used in investing activities, plus the payment of contingent consideration in excess of acquisition-date fair value and gains on proceeds from insurance that are included in net cash provided by operating activities, if any. We use this cash flow metric because we believe that this methodology can provide useful supplemental information to help investors better understand our ability to generate cash flow after considering certain investments required to maintain or grow our business, as well as eliminate the impact of certain cash flow items presented as operating cash flows that we do not believe reflect the cash flow generated by the underlying business.

Our adjusted free cash flow measure has limitations as it may omit certain components of the overall cash flow statement and does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example, adjusted free cash flow does not incorporate our cash payments to reduce the principal portion of our debt or cash payments for business acquisitions. Additionally, the mix of property, plant and equipment purchases that we choose to finance may change over time. We believe it is important to view our adjusted free cash flow measure

46

only as a complement to our entire consolidated statement of cash flows.

_________________

(1) Upon the adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA lease, which was previously classified as build-to-suit, is now classified as an operating lease under the new standard. Therefore, the Waltham depreciation and interest expense adjustments that were made in comparative periods are no longer adjusted beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, as any impact from the Waltham lease will be reflected in operating income. Refer to Note 2 in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details.

(2) The adjustment for share-based compensation expense excludes the portion of share-based compensation expense included in restructuring related charges, if any, to avoid double counting.

(3) Includes the impact of certain impairments of goodwill and other long-lived assets as defined by ASC 350 - "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other", as well losses recognized for fair value adjustments to the disposal group associated with held for sale assets and liabilities as defined by ASC 360 - "Property, Plant, and Equipment" and reserves recognized for loans as defined by ASC 326 - "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses."

_________________

(1) Includes a portion of the earn-out payment that is presented within net cash provided by operating activities as part of the change in accrued expenses and other liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2018. This portion of the earn-out was deemed to be a compensation arrangement since it included an employment-related contingency. We add back acquisition-related contingent consideration payments because we believe they are material payments directly associated with the acquisition of a business rather than a reflection of free cash flow generation of the underlying business.

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

47

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 shipment of customized manufactured products. To a much lesser extent (and only in our Vistaprint business) we provide digital services, website design and hosting, and email marketing services, as well as a small percentage from order referral fees and other third-party offerings. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services.

Under the terms of most of our arrangements with our customers we provide satisfaction guarantees, which give our customers an option for a refund or reprint over a specified period of time if the customer is not fully satisfied. As such, we record a reserve for estimated sales returns and allowances as a reduction of revenue, based on historical experience or the specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve. Actual sales returns have historically not been significant.

We have elected to recognize shipping and handling activities that occur after transfer of control of the products as fulfillment activities and not as a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, we recognize revenue for our single performance obligation upon the transfer of control of the fulfilled orders, which generally occurs upon delivery to the shipping carrier. If revenue is recognized prior to completion of the shipping and handling activities, we accrue the costs of those activities. We do have some arrangements whereby the transfer of control, and thus revenue recognition, occurs upon delivery to the customer. If multiple products are ordered together, each product is considered a separate performance obligation, and the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of each performance obligation. We generally determine the standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to our customers.

Our products are customized for each individual customer with no alternative use except to be delivered to that specific customer; however, we do not have an enforceable right to payment prior to delivering the items to the customer based on the terms and conditions of our arrangements with customers and therefore we recognize revenue at a point in time.

We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of our satisfaction of the related performance obligation. The satisfaction of performance obligations generally occur shortly after cash payment and we expect to recognize our deferred revenue balance as revenue within three months subsequent to June 30, 2020.

We periodically provide marketing materials and promotional offers to new customers and existing customers that are intended to improve customer retention. These incentive offers are generally available to all customers and, therefore, do not represent a performance obligation as customers are not required to enter into a contractual commitment to receive the offer. These discounts are recognized as a reduction to the transaction price when used by the customer. Costs related to free products are included within cost of revenue and sample products are included within marketing and selling expense.

We have elected to apply the practical expedient under ASC 340-40-25-4 to expense incremental direct costs as incurred, which primarily includes sales commissions, since our contract periods generally are less than one year and the related performance obligations are satisfied within a short period of time.

Share-Based Compensation. We measure share-based compensation costs at fair value, 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 recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur.

We primarily issue performance share units, or PSUs, which are estimated at fair value on the date of grant, which is fixed throughout the vesting period. The fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. As the PSUs include both a service and market condition the related expense is recognized using the

48

accelerated expense attribution method over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. For PSUs that meet the service vesting condition, the expense recognized over the requisite service period will not be reversed if the market condition is not achieved. The compensation expense for these awards is estimated at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and compensation costs are recorded only if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

In addition to a service vesting and market condition (based on the three year moving average of the Cimpress share price) contained in our standard performance share units, we also issue awards that contain financial performance conditions. These awards with a discretionary performance condition are subject to mark-to-market accounting throughout the performance vesting period. The compensation expense for these awards is estimated at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and compensation costs are recorded only if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We are required to reassess the probability each reporting period. If we determine the awards are not probable at some point during the performance vesting period, we would reverse any expense recognized to date.

Income Taxes. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we calculate 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. Stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss are released on an item-by-item basis based on when the applicable derivative is recognized in earnings.

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 is three years. Our judgment is required in evaluating whether a project provides new or additional functionality, determining 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, forecasted revenue growth rates, estimated customer renewal rates, projected operating margins, royalty rates 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 or through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model. 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 the valuations for our acquisitions may differ materially

49

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. We consider the timing of our most recent fair value assessment and associated headroom, the actual operating results as compared to the cash flow forecasts used in those fair value assessments, the current long-term forecasts for each reporting unit, and the general market and economic environment of each reporting unit. 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 and in certain circumstances a market-based approach. This analysis requires significant judgment and is based on our strategic plans and estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts. Our annual analysis also requires significant judgment including the identification and aggregation of reporting units, as well as the determination of our discount rate and perpetual growth rate assumptions. We are required to compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value.

During March 2020, all of our businesses experienced varying levels of decline in revenue due to the disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we expect the impacts to be temporary, the negative effects of the pandemic on revenue and profitability triggered an assessment of goodwill, as we expected some of our businesses to achieve materially lower financial results than previously expected. A triggering event existed for all ten reporting units with goodwill, which required us to perform an impairment test in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. As part of our assessment, we recognized goodwill impairment charges of $100.8 million. We recognized a full goodwill impairment charge for our National Pen and VIDA reporting units, which amounted to $34.4 million and $26.0 million, respectively, as well as a partial goodwill impairment charge for our Exaprint reporting unit of $40.4 million. These impairment charges were due primarily to the deterioration of cash flow that we expect in the near-term for each of these businesses as a result of the decline in demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic lock downs and related restrictions. In addition to the declines we expect in near-term cash flows, the long-term profit outlook for each of these businesses has declined when compared to previous estimates, contributing to the recognition of these impairment charges

We are required to evaluate the estimated useful lives and recoverability of definite lived long-lived assets (for example, customer relationships, developed technology, property, and equipment) on an ongoing basis 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

50

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. We evaluated our long-lived assets for impairment and during the year ended June 30, 2020, we recognized no impairments.

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

See Item 8 of Part II, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements."

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, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents consisted of standard depository accounts which are held for working capital purposes. We do not believe we have a material exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to our cash and cash equivalents.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $570.5 million of variable-rate debt. 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 or forecasted long-term debt with varying maturities. As of June 30, 2020, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in rates, inclusive of our outstanding interest rate swaps, would result in an increase to interest expense of approximately $0.3 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. We manage these currency risks through normal operating activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We have policies governing the use of derivative instruments and do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The use of derivatives is intended to reduce, but does not entirely eliminate, the impact of adverse currency exchange rate movements. 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 and non-GAAP financial metrics, such as adjusted EBITDA.

Our currency hedging objectives are targeted at reducing volatility in our forecasted U.S. dollar-equivalent adjusted EBITDA in order to protect our debt covenants. Since adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization that are included in net income, we may experience increased, not decreased, volatility in our GAAP results due to our hedging approach. Our most significant net currency exposures by volume are in the Euro and British Pound.

In addition, we elect to execute currency derivatives 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 economic gains and losses are reported in the line item of the underlying activity, for example, revenue.

51

• 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.

We have currency exposure arising from our net investments in foreign operations. We enter into currency derivatives to mitigate the impact of currency rate changes on certain net investments.

• 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. Certain of our subsidiaries hold intercompany loans denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. Due to the significance of these balances, the revaluation of intercompany loans can have a material impact on other income (expense), net. We expect these impacts may be volatile in the future, although our largest intercompany loans do not have a U.S. dollar cash impact for the consolidated group because they are either 1) U.S. dollar loans or 2) we elect to hedge certain non-U.S. dollar loans with cross-currency swaps. 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. The balances are inclusive of the notional value of any cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges. A hypothetical decrease in exchange rates of 10% against the functional currency of our subsidiaries would have resulted in an increase of $15.8 million, $33.3 million and $51.1 million on our income before income taxes for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Cimpress plc

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cimpress plc (formerly known as Cimpress N.V.), and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2020, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for leasing arrangements in 2019.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

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

54

reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) 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 (iii) 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.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Goodwill - Quantitative Impairment Assessment - Exaprint and National Pen Reporting Units

As described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s goodwill balance was $621.9 million as of June 30, 2020. During March 2020, all of the Company’s businesses experienced varying levels of decline in revenue due to the disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Although management expects the impacts to be temporary, the negative effects of the pandemic on revenue and profitability triggered an assessment of goodwill, as management expected some of its businesses to achieve materially lower financial results than previously expected. Management’s March 31, 2020 goodwill impairment test resulted in impairment charges to the Exaprint reporting unit of $40.4 million, included within The Print Group reportable segment, and the National Pen reporting unit of $34.4 million. Management used the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The cash flow projections in the fair value analysis are considered Level 3 inputs, and consist of management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration historical results, as well as industry and market conditions. The discount rate used in the fair value analysis is based on a weighted average cost of capital, which represents the average rate a business must pay its providers of debt and equity, plus a risk premium.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill quantitative impairment assessments for the Exaprint and National Pen reporting units is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value of the reporting units, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures over the significant assumptions related to the revenue growth rates, operating margins, and discount rates; and the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment assessment, including controls over the significant assumptions used in the valuation of the Exaprint and National Pen reporting units. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value of the reporting units; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model; (iii) testing the completeness, accuracy and relevance of underlying data used in the model; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to the revenue growth rates, operating margins, and discount rates. Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to the revenue growth rates and operating margins involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering the current and past performance of the reporting units, the consistency with external market and industry data, and

55

whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the Company's discounted cash flow model and the reasonableness of the discount rates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years Ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Description of the Business

Cimpress is a strategically focused group of more than a dozen businesses that specialize in mass customization, via which we deliver large volumes of individually small-sized customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, photo merchandise, invitations and announcements, writing instruments, packaging, apparel and other categories. We invest in and build customer-focused, entrepreneurial mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized, autonomous manner. Mass customization is a core element of the business model of each Cimpress business. We drive competitive advantage across Cimpress through a select few shared strategic capabilities that have the greatest potential to create Cimpress-wide value. We limit all other central activities to only those which absolutely must be performed centrally.

Irish Merger

On December 3, 2019, Cimpress moved its place of incorporation from the Netherlands to Ireland through a cross-border merger in which Cimpress N.V., a Dutch public limited company, merged with and into Cimpress plc, an Irish public limited company, with Cimpress plc surviving the Irish Merger. As a result of the Irish Merger, all of Cimpress N.V.'s outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for newly issued ordinary shares, nominal value of €0.01 per share, of Cimpress plc, and Cimpress plc assumed all of Cimpress N.V.'s existing rights and obligations.

In conjunction with the Irish Merger, 25,000 Cimpress plc deferred ordinary shares were issued to meet the Irish statutory minimum capital requirements of an Irish public limited company. The deferred ordinary shares remain outstanding following the completion of the Irish Merger and will continue to be outstanding until redeemed or surrendered. These deferred ordinary shares (i) do not have any voting rights; (ii) do not entitle the holders thereof to any dividends or other distributions of Cimpress plc; and (iii) do not entitle the holders thereof to participate in the surplus assets of Cimpress plc on a winding-up beyond, in total, the nominal value of such deferred ordinary shares held. Accordingly, these deferred ordinary shares do not dilute the economic ownership of Cimpress plc shareholders.

The Irish Merger was accounted for as a merger between entities under common control. The historical financial statements of Cimpress N.V. for periods prior to the Irish Merger are considered to be the historical financial statements of Cimpress plc. The Irish Merger has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on how Cimpress conducts its day-to-day operations, its financial position, consolidated effective tax rate, results of operations or cash flows.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cimpress plc, 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 cannot exercise significant influence, and the related equity securities do not have a readily determinable fair value, are accounted for using the cost method and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Given the current and expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business we evaluated our liquidity position as of the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Based on this evaluation, management believes, despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our business, that our financial position, net cash provided by operations combined with our cash and cash equivalents, borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility, and the April 2020 temporary maintenance covenant suspension and capital raise as described in Note 10, will be sufficient to fund our current obligations, capital spending, debt service requirements and working capital requirements over at least the next twelve months.  

64

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, 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.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of August 11, 2020, the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

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 $86 and $87 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

For bank accounts that are overdrawn at the end of a reporting period, including any net negative balance in our notional cash pool, we reclassify these overdrafts to short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets. Book overdrafts that result from outstanding checks in excess of our bank balance are reclassified to other current liabilities. As of June 30, 2020, we reclassified $3,768 to short-term debt within our consolidated balance sheets and presented the overdraw within financing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. We did not have a bank overdraw in the prior period. As of June 30, 2020, we did not record a book overdraft, however as of June 30, 2019, we reclassified a book overdraft of $2,144 to other current liabilities.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes amounts due from customers. 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 no longer reasonably assured.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of raw materials and are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the 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 any of the years presented 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

65

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 is generally over a three year period. 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $40,753, $35,068 and $31,332, respectively, resulting in accumulated amortization of $180,993 and $136,721 at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

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 using the income approach to value the trade names, customer relationships and customer network and a replacement cost approach to value developed technology and our print network. 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. We 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. 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 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 finite 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. We did not recognize any impairment or abandonment charges for acquired intangible assets in any of the periods presented.

Business Combinations

We recognize the assets acquired 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. Assets acquired 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.

66

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 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 a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs associated with the issuance of debt instruments are capitalized and amortized over the term of the respective financing arrangement on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of the related debt instrument. We evaluate all changes to our debt arrangements, to determine whether the changes represent a modification or extinguishment to the old debt arrangement. If a debt instrument is deemed to be modified, we capitalize all new lenders fees and expense all third-party fees. If we determine that an extinguishment of one of our debt instruments has occurred, the unamortized financing fees associated with the extinguished instrument are expensed. For the revolving loans associated with our senior secured credit facility, all lender and third-party fees are capitalized, and in the event the amendment reduces the committed capacity under the revolving loans, we expense a portion of any unamortized fees on a pro-rata basis in proportion to the decrease in the committed capacity.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We record all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. We apply hedge accounting to arrangements that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting treatment, which includes cash flow and net investment hedges. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively if the hedging relationship ceases to be effective or the hedging or hedged items cease to exist as a result of maturity, sale, termination or cancellation.

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 which could include interest rate swap contracts and cross-currency swap contracts. In a cash flow hedging relationship, the effective and ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of the hedging derivative is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until the forecasted transaction is recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, we present the settlement amount of these contracts within cash from investing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows, if the hedged item continues after contract settlement.

Derivatives designated and qualifying as hedges of currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation are considered net investment hedges which could include cross-currency swap and currency forward contracts. In hedging the currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective and ineffective portion of gains and losses on the hedging instruments is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as part of currency translation adjustment. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until we reduce our investment in the hedged foreign operation through a sale or substantial liquidation.

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. When hedge accounting is not applied, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded directly in earnings as a component of other (expense) income, net.

67

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.

Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interests held by third parties in consolidated subsidiaries are considered mandatorily redeemable when they are subject to an unconditional obligation to be redeemed by both parties. The redeemable noncontrolling interest must be required to be repurchased on a specified date or on the occurrence of a specified event that is certain to occur and are to be redeemed via the transfer of assets. Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented as liability-based financial instruments and are re-measured on a recurring basis to the expected redemption value.

Shareholders’ (Deficit) Equity

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) 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 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 as consideration for some of our acquisition transactions. Upon issuance of treasury shares we determine the cost using the average cost method.

Warrants

During the fourth quarter of 2020, we issued warrants in conjunction with the issuance of second lien debt. The warrants are legally detachable from the debt and settleable only in our shares. We account for the warrants in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires us to bifurcate and separately account for the detachable warrant as a separate equity instrument. The value assigned to the warrants was determined based on a relative fair value allocation between the warrants and related debt. The fair value of the warrants was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation and applying a discount for the lack of marketability for the warrants. We present the allocated value for the warrants within additional paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 10 for additional details related to the refinancing.

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipment of customized manufactured products. To a much lesser extent (and only in our Vistaprint business) we provide digital services, website design and hosting, and email marketing services, as well as a small percentage from order referral fees and other third-party offerings. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. Shipping revenues are recognized when control of the related products is transferred to the customer.

Under the terms of most of our arrangements with our customers we provide satisfaction guarantees, which give our customers an option for a refund or reprint over a specified period of time if the customer is not fully satisfied. As such, we record a reserve for estimated sales returns and allowances as a reduction of revenue, based on historical experience or the specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve. Actual sales returns have historically not been significant.

We have elected to recognize shipping and handling activities that occur after transfer of control of the products as fulfillment activities and not as a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, we recognize revenue

68

for our single performance obligation upon the transfer of control of the fulfilled orders, which generally occurs upon delivery to the shipping carrier. If revenue is recognized prior to completion of the shipping and handling activities, we accrue the costs of those activities. We do have some arrangements whereby the transfer of control, and thus revenue recognition, occurs upon delivery to the customer. If multiple products are ordered together, each product is considered a separate performance obligation, and the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of each performance obligation. We generally determine the standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to our customers.

Our products are customized for each individual customer with no alternative use except to be delivered to that specific customer; however, we do not have an enforceable right to payment prior to delivering the items to the customer based on the terms and conditions of our arrangements with customers and therefore we recognize revenue at a point in time.

We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of our satisfaction of the related performance obligation. The satisfaction of performance obligations generally occurs shortly after cash payment and we expect to recognize our deferred revenue balance as revenue within three months subsequent to June 30, 2020.

We periodically provide marketing materials and promotional offers to new customers and existing customers that are intended to improve customer retention. These incentive offers are generally available to all customers and, therefore, do not represent a performance obligation as customers are not required to enter into a contractual commitment to receive the offer. These discounts are recognized as a reduction to the transaction price when used by the customer. Costs related to free products are included within cost of revenue and sample products are included within marketing and selling expense.

We have elected to expense incremental direct costs as incurred, which primarily includes sales commissions, since our contract periods generally are less than one year and the related performance obligations are satisfied within a short period of time. Additional revenue disaggregation disclosure requirements resulting from the adoption of ASC 606 are included in Note 16.

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 a facility 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 presented as a separate financial statement line within our consolidated statement of operations.

For jurisdictions in which there are statutorily required minimum benefits for involuntary terminations, or severance benefits documented in an employee manual or labor contract, we evaluate these benefits under ASC 712 as ongoing benefit arrangements. We recognize the liability for these arrangements when it is probable that the employee would be entitled to the benefits and the amounts can be reasonably estimated.

Advertising Expense

Our advertising costs are primarily expensed as incurred and included in marketing and selling expense. Advertising expense for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $302,449, $427,673, and $432,546, 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $49,201, $40,976, and $41,451, respectively, which consisted of costs related to enhancing our manufacturing engineering and technology capabilities.

69

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we calculate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current tax expense and deferred tax expense based on 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. 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 as 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 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 consolidated statements of operations.

Other Income (Expense), Net

The following table summarizes the components of other income (expense), net:

	Year Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2018
Gains on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (1)	$	20,564	$	23,494	$	(2,687	)
Currency-related gains (losses), net (2)	2,309		2,506		(19,500		)
Other gains	1		476		1,155
Total other income (expense), net	$	22,874	$	26,476	$	(21,032	)

_____________________

(1) Primarily relates to both realized and unrealized gains on derivative currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments, as well as certain interest rate swap contracts that have been de-designated from hedge accounting due to their ineffectiveness.

(2) We have significant non-functional currency intercompany financing relationships that we may change at times and are subject to currency exchange rate volatility. The currency-related gains (losses), net for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are primarily driven by this intercompany activity. In addition, we have certain cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges, which hedge the remeasurement of certain intercompany loans, both presented in the same component above. The unrealized gain related to cross-currency swaps was $929 for the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to an unrealized loss of $3,484 for the year ended June 30, 2019, and an unrealized gain of $2,722 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Cimpress plc

Basic net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc is computed by dividing net income attributable to Cimpress plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including share options, restricted share units (“RSUs”), restricted share awards ("RSAs"), warrants, and performance share units ("PSUs"), 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.

70

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

	Year Ended June 30,
	2020	2019	2018
Weighted average shares outstanding, basic	27,180,744	30,786,349	30,948,081
Weighted average shares issuable upon exercise/vesting of outstanding share options/PSUs/RSUs/RSAs/warrants (1)	592,542	876,356	1,272,320
Shares used in computing diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	27,773,286	31,662,705	32,220,401
Weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	1,325	—	2,291

_____________________

(1) On May 1, 2020, we entered into a financing arrangement with Apollo Global Management, Inc., which included 7-year warrants with a strike price of $60 that have a potentially dilutive impact on our weighted average shares outstanding. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average dilutive effect of the warrants was 73,719 shares. Refer to Note 10 for additional details about the arrangement.

Compensation Expense

Share-based Compensation

Compensation expense for all share-based awards is measured at fair value on the date of grant and recognized over the requisite service period. We recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur. 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. The fair value of RSUs and RSAs is determined based on 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. For awards that are ultimately settleable in cash, we treat them as liability awards and mark the award to market each reporting period recognizing any gain or loss in our statements of operations. For awards with a performance condition vesting feature, compensation cost is recorded if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

We have issued performance share units, or PSUs, which are estimated at fair value on the date of grant, which is fixed throughout the vesting period. The fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. As the PSUs include both a service and market condition the related expense is recognized using the accelerated expense attribution method over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. For PSUs that meet the service vesting condition, the expense recognized over the requisite service period will not be reversed if the market condition is not achieved.

In addition to a service vesting and market condition (based on the three year moving average of the Cimpress share price) contained in our standard performance share units, we also issue awards that contain financial performance conditions. These awards with a discretionary performance condition are subject to mark-to-market accounting throughout the performance vesting period. The compensation expense for these awards is estimated at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and compensation costs are recorded only if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We are required to reassess the probability each reporting period. If we determine the awards are not probable at some point during the performance vesting period we would reverse any expense recognized to date.

Total share-based compensation expense was $34,874, $21,716 and $50,466 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

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.

71

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We monitor the creditworthiness of our customers to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020 and 2019. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

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.

Lease Accounting

Lease accounting - adoption of ASC 842

On July 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases, using a modified retrospective transition approach. Under the modified retrospective approach, we recognized any cumulative impacts as of the adoption date within retained earnings on our consolidated balance sheet. We did not adjust the prior comparable period. Additionally, as part of our transition, we elected several practical expedients that streamlined the transition to the new guidance whereby we did not reassess the following:

• whether a lease under the prior standard continues to meet the definition of a lease under the new standard;

• whether the application of the new standard would have an impact on the classification of our existing leases, with the exception of our build-to-suit leases; and

• the existence of any initial direct costs associated with our leases.

We also elected the practical expedient to account for our lease components as a single lease component rather than separating them into lease and nonlease components, which would have resulted in recognizing only the lease components in the measurement of our lease assets and liabilities. This expedient was applied to all underlying classes of assets we lease.

We elected the short-term lease exception policy, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases, which are defined as leases with a term of twelve months or less. Short-term leases are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our consolidated statement of operations. We determine the lease term by including the exercise of renewal options that are considered reasonably certain at lease inception.

The following table summarizes the cumulative effect of adopting the new lease standard as of the adoption date of July 1, 2019:

Consolidated Balance Sheet	As reported at June 30, 2019		ASC 842 adjustments			Adjusted balance at July 1, 2019
Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	78,065	$	(59	)	$	78,006
Property, plant and equipment, net	490,755		(121,254		)	369,501
Operating lease assets, net	—		169,668			169,668
Deferred tax assets	59,906		(817		)	59,089
Liabilities and shareholders' equity
Operating lease liabilities, current	$	—	$	37,342		$	37,342
Other current liabilities	27,881		(12,569		)	15,312
Lease financing obligation	112,096		(112,096		)	—
Operating lease liabilities, non-current	—		139,041			139,041
Other liabilities	53,716		(7,169		)	46,547
Retained earnings	537,422		2,989			540,411

72

The new standard impacted the classification of our build-to-suit leases for our Waltham, Massachusetts and Dallas, Texas building leases, which resulted in a change of their classification to operating leases. On July 1, 2019, we de-recognized the existing lease assets included within property, plant and equipment, net of $121,254, the related lease financing obligations of $124,665, and associated deferred rent of $418. This change resulted in an $817 decrease to deferred tax assets and a net increase to retained earnings of $2,989. In addition, on July 1, 2019, we recognized operating lease assets of $169,668 and operating lease liabilities of $176,383, inclusive of our Waltham, Massachusetts lease which commenced prior to the transition date. The difference between the operating lease assets and liabilities resulted from the reclassification of deferred rent and tenant allowance balances presented in other financial statement lines of the consolidated balance sheet, which are now included in the operating lease assets.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the change in lease classification for our build-to-suit leases resulted in a reduction to operating income within our consolidated statement of operations of $7,440, with a corresponding decrease to interest expense, net. In our consolidated statement of cash flows, the change in classification resulted in a decrease to cash from operating activities and increase to cash from financing activities of $4,117 during the year ended June 30, 2020. Other than the impact from our build-to-suit leases, the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows. Refer to Note 17 for additional lease disclosure.

Lease accounting policy

We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception. We consider an arrangement to be a lease if it conveys the right to control an identifiable asset for a period of time. 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 lease term, excluding renewal periods.

Lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and liabilities for operating and finance leases are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at lease commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Our incremental borrowing rate approximates the interest rate on a collateralized basis for the economic environments where our leased assets are located, and is established by considering the credit spread associated with our existing debt arrangements, as well as observed market rates for instruments with a similar term to that of the lease payments. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement, as well as any initial direct costs incurred. Lease incentives received from the lessor are recognized as a reduction to the ROU asset.

Our initial determination of the lease term is based on the facts and circumstances that exist at lease commencement. The lease term may include the effect of options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised. We consider these options reasonably certain to be exercised based on our assessment of economic incentives, including the fair market rent for equivalent properties under similar terms and conditions, costs of relocating, availability of comparable replacement assets, and any related disruption to operations that would be experienced by not renewing the lease.

Finance leases are accounted for as an acquisition of an asset and incurrence of an obligation. Assets held under finance 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 finance lease obligation is recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease.

Operating leases are included in operating lease assets and current and non-current operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant, and equipment, net, and the related liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Variable lease payments are excluded from the operating lease assets and liabilities and are recognized as expense in the period in which the obligation is incurred. Variable lease payments primarily include index-based rent escalation associated with some of our real estate leases, as well as property taxes and common area

73

maintenance payments for most real estate leases, which are determined based on the costs incurred by the lessor. We also make variable lease payments for certain print equipment leases that are determined based on production volumes.

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. 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 finance 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.

We have subleased a small amount of our equipment and real estate lease portfolio to third parties, making us the lessor. Most of these subleases meet the criteria for operating lease classification and the related sublease income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term within the consolidated statement of operations. To a lesser extent, we have leases in which we are the lessees, classify the leases as finance leases and have subleased the asset under similar terms, resulting in their classification as direct financing leases. For direct financing leases, we recognize a sublease receivable within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Standards Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15 "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)" (ASU 2018-15), which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The standard would be effective on July 1, 2020 and we early adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019. The standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815)," (ASU 2017-12), which better aligns a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. We adopted the amendment on its effective date of July 1, 2019. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach, and we recognized the cumulative effect of the change within shareholders' equity as of the date of adoption. Upon transitioning to the new standard on July 1, 2019, we reversed the cumulative effect of expense previously recognized in earnings for the ineffective portion of our interest rate swap contracts, which resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive loss within our consolidated balance sheet of $153, net of tax. We will prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with our effective and designated cash flow hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. These changes did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" (ASU 2016-02), which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The standard also retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. We adopted the standard on its effective date of July 1, 2019. Refer to the information above for additional details of the adoption.

74

Issued Accounting Standards to be Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" (ASU 2019-12), which modifies certain aspects of income tax accounting. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)" (ASU 2016-13), which introduces a new accounting model for recognizing credit losses on certain financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

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, 2020
	Total			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)			Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

During the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, 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 counterparties' 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, 2020, 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.

As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values. As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the carrying value of our debt, excluding debt issuance costs and debt premiums and discounts, was $1,482,177 and $1,035,585, respectively, and the fair value was $1,450,719 and $1,045,334, respectively. Our debt at June 30, 2020 includes variable-rate debt instruments indexed to LIBOR that resets periodically, as well as fixed-rate debt instruments. 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

We use derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swap contracts, cross-currency swap contracts, and currency forward and option contracts, to manage interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Derivatives are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge or net investment hedge, then the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. On July 1, 2019, we adopted the new hedge accounting standard, in which we no longer recognize the ineffective portion of an effective hedge within earnings, rather any ineffectiveness associated with any effective and designated hedge is recognized within accumulated other comprehensive loss. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

The change in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges is recognized directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net.

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

We enter into interest rate swap contracts to manage variability in the amount of our known or expected cash payments related to a portion of our debt. Our objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We designate our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. 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 contract agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Realized gains or losses from interest rate swaps are recorded in earnings as a component of interest expense, net.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to interest rate swap contracts will be reclassified to interest expense, net as interest payments are accrued or made on our variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2020, we estimate that $10,364 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense during the twelve months ending June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2020, we had ten outstanding interest rate swap contracts indexed to USD LIBOR, of which seven of these instruments were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2025. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three contracts from hedge accounting due to an increased floor to our LIBOR borrowing costs related to the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured credit facility. As a result of this change in the underlying debt being hedged, these three forward starting hedges were no longer highly effective. These de-designated hedges have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2026.

Interest rate swap contracts outstanding:	Notional Amounts
Contracts accruing interest as of June 30, 2020	$	500,000
Contracts with a future start date	50,000
Total	$	550,000

Hedges of Currency Risk

Cross-Currency Swap Contracts

From time to time, we execute cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges or net investment hedges. Cross-currency swaps involve an initial receipt of the notional amount in the hedge currency in exchange for our reporting currency based on a contracted exchange rate. Subsequently, we receive fixed rate payments in our reporting currency in exchange for fixed rate payments in the hedged currency over the life of the contract. At maturity, the final exchange involves the receipt of our reporting currency in exchange for the notional amount in the hedged currency.

Cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges are executed to mitigate our currency exposure to the interest receipts as well as the principal remeasurement and repayment associated with certain intercompany loans denominated in a currency other than our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we terminated one of our cross-currency swaps, resulting in cash proceeds of $9,177 which were recognized within cash provided by operating activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. As of June 30, 2020, we had two outstanding cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges with a total notional amount of $120,874, both maturing during June 2024. We entered into the two cross-currency swap

77

contracts to hedge the risk of changes in one Euro-denominated intercompany loan entered into with one of our consolidated subsidiaries that has the Euro as its functional currency.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified to other income (expense), net as interest payments are accrued or paid and upon remeasuring the intercompany loan. As of June 30, 2020, we estimate that $2,994 of income will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense, net during the twelve months ending June 30, 2021.

Other Currency Contracts

We execute currency forward and option contracts in order to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in various currencies against our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar.

During the year ended June 30, 2020, we terminated nine forward contracts designated as net investment hedges, resulting in cash proceeds of $29,791 which continues to be recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The cash proceeds were recognized as cash provided by investing activities within our consolidated statement of cash flow. As of June 30, 2020, we had five currency forward contracts designated as net investment hedges with a total notional amount of $149,604, maturing during various dates through April 2023. We entered into these contracts to hedge the risk of changes in the U.S. dollar equivalent value of a portion of our net investment in two consolidated subsidiaries that have the Euro as their functional currency. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss are recognized as a component of our cumulative translation adjustment.

We have elected to not apply hedge accounting for all other currency forward and option contracts. During the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we have experienced 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 and option contracts. We expect this volatility to continue in future periods for contracts for which we do not apply hedge accounting. Additionally, since our hedging objectives may be targeted at non-GAAP financial metrics that exclude non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, we may experience increased, not decreased, volatility in our GAAP results as a result of our currency hedging program.

As of June 30, 2020, we had the following outstanding currency derivative contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar value of forecasted transactions or balances denominated in Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Danish Krone, Euro, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Norwegian Krone, Philippine Peso and Swedish Krona:

Notional Amount	Effective Date	Maturity Date	Number of Instruments	Index
$587,993	September 2018 through June 2020	Various dates through October 2024	574	Various

(1) Upon our adoption of the new hedge accounting standard on July 1, 2019, we prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with effective and designated hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three of our interest rate swaps and therefore no longer apply hedge accounting. Subsequent to their de-designation, we recognize any fair value adjustments to those instruments in other income (expense), net, as included in the table above.

7. Business Combinations and Divestitures

Fiscal 2019 Acquisitions

Acquisition of Build A Sign LLC

On October 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Build A Sign LLC ("BuildASign"), a vertically integrated U.S. web-to-print canvas wall décor and signage company. We acquired approximately 99% of the outstanding equity interests of BuildASign for a purchase price of $275,079 in cash, which includes a post-closing adjustment paid during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and was based on BuildASign's cash, debt and working capital position as of the acquisition date.

The acquisition supports our strategy of investing in and building customer-focused, entrepreneurial, mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized and autonomous manner. BuildASign brings strong talent, a customer-centric culture, low-cost production operations and strong e-commerce capabilities that work seamlessly together to serve customers with market-leading prices, fast delivery and great customer service.

Noncontrolling Interest

At the closing, Build A Sign Management Pool, LLC (the "Management Pool"), one of the sellers, retained approximately 1% of the outstanding equity interests of BuildASign for the benefit of certain BuildASign employees who hold equity interests in the Management Pool. We entered into a put and call option agreement with respect to the retained BuildASign equity interests, which provides the holders of the Management Pool the right to sell to us all or any portion of their shares, beginning with our fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 and for each fiscal year thereafter. We have the right to buy all (but not less than all) of the retained equity interest of any holder that is no longer an active employee of the company, beginning with our fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. The put and call purchase price is based on BuildASign's revenue growth and EBITDA for the fiscal year in which the option is exercised. Due to the presence of the put arrangement, the noncontrolling interest is presented as redeemable

83

noncontrolling interest as redemption is not solely within our control. We initially recognized the noncontrolling interest at fair value of $3,356 and will adjust the balance for the pro rata impact of the BuildASign earnings or loss, as well as adjustments to increase the balance to the redemption value, if necessary.

The excess purchase price over the fair value of BuildASign's net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to the value of its workforce, its manufacturing and marketing processes and know-how, as well as synergies which include leveraging Cimpress' scale-based sourcing channels. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and has been attributed to the All Other Businesses reportable segment.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was as follows:

	Amount			Weighted Average Useful Life in Years
Tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	4,093		n/a
Accounts receivable, net	510			n/a

_________________

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized goodwill related to an immaterial acquisition within our PrintBrothers reportable segment. In fiscal year 2019 we acquired the BuildASign and VIDA businesses as well as an immaterial supplier of one of our businesses within The Print Group reportable segment.

(2) During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we identified triggering events in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in the recognition of impairment to goodwill, please refer below for further detail. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we divested our VIDA business and recognized a loss of $1,520, in addition to the goodwill impairment recognized. In fiscal year 2019 we recorded an impairment charge for the goodwill of our Printi reporting unit. Refer below for additional details.

(3) Related to goodwill held by subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

(4) Due to changes in the composition of our reportable segments during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we reclassified the goodwill associated with our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions reporting unit from All Other Businesses to our Vistaprint reportable segment. Refer to Note 16 for additional details on the changes in our reportable segments.

Impairment Review

Fiscal 2020 Annual Impairment Test

Our goodwill accounting policy establishes an annual goodwill impairment test date of May 31. As described below, we identified triggering events during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 that required an interim period impairment analysis for all of our reporting units in response to disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. For our annual impairment assessment, we performed a qualitative test for all eight reporting units with goodwill, which focused on comparing key performance indicators between the pandemic-related financial models used in our quantitative test during the third quarter triggering event assessment, to the actual performance through our annual test date. For each of our reporting units, we are experiencing a better than previously expected recovery when comparing our revenue and EBITDA results for April and May 2020. In addition, we considered our current forecasts for the beginning of fiscal 2021, which again anticipates a better recovery as compared to the third quarter financial models that were used for our third quarter quantitative tests. Lastly, we also considered macroeconomic factors, as well as the headroom between our estimated fair value and carrying value from our third quarter

85

impairment analysis. We continue to believe that the impacts of the pandemic are temporary, so the better than expected results, combined with an improved near-term outlook were key inputs into our annual impairment analysis, in which we concluded that no impairment exists.

Our goodwill analysis requires significant judgment, including the identification of reporting units and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. While we believe our assumptions are reasonable, actual results could differ from our projections. There have been no indications of impairment that would require analysis for any of our other reporting units as of June 30, 2020.

COVID-19 Triggering Event

During March 2020, all of our businesses experienced varying levels of decline in revenue due to the disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we expect the impacts to be temporary, the negative effects of the pandemic on revenue and profitability triggered an assessment of goodwill, as we expected some of our businesses to achieve materially lower financial results than previously expected. A triggering event existed for all ten reporting units with goodwill, which required us to perform an impairment test in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

As required, prior to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test during the third quarter, we first evaluated the recoverability of long-lived assets as the change in expected long-term cash flows is indicative of a potential impairment. We performed the recoverability test using undiscounted cash flows for the asset groups of all of our reporting units and concluded that no impairment of long-lived assets existed.

As of our March 31, 2020 test date, seven of our ten reporting units had a significant level of headroom between the estimated fair value and carrying value of the reporting units from our most recent test, and significant headroom remained after considering the deterioration in cash flow due to COVID-19, resulting in no indication of impairment during the third quarter of fiscal 2020. We identified triggering events that extended beyond the near-term impacts of the pandemic for three of our reporting units, which resulted in reductions to the long-term profitability outlooks for our Exaprint, National Pen and VIDA reporting units. The triggering events in these specific reporting units were due to a combination of the near-term disruptions outlined above, along with reductions to the long-term profitability expected from each business, as compared to prior expectations. In light of our decision to exit the VIDA business, which was completed on April 10, 2020, the negotiated sale price was the primary input in our goodwill analysis.

Our March 31, 2020 goodwill impairment test resulted in impairment charges to our Exaprint reporting unit, included within The Print Group reportable segment, the National Pen reporting unit, and our VIDA reporting unit, included within our All Other Business reportable segment. In order to execute the quantitative goodwill impairment test, we compared the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. We used the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. We selected this method as being the most meaningful in preparing our goodwill assessment as we believe the income approach most appropriately measures our income-producing assets. We considered using the market approach but concluded it was not appropriate in valuing these particular reporting units given the lack of relevant market comparisons available. The cash flow projections in the fair value analysis are considered Level 3 inputs, and consist of management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration historical results, as well as industry and market conditions. The discount rate used in the fair value analysis is based on a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), which represents the average rate a business must pay its providers of debt and equity, plus a risk premium. The respective WACC percentages used for each reporting unit within our goodwill impairment test were derived from a group of comparable companies for each respective reporting unit and adjusted for the risk premium associated with each reporting unit.

Based on the goodwill impairment test performed, we recognized the following impairment charges during the third quarter of fiscal 2020:

• A partial impairment of the goodwill of our Exaprint reporting unit of $40,391, using a WACC of 14.5%, resulting in $23,767 of goodwill that remains after the impairment as of June 30, 2020

• A full impairment of the goodwill of our National Pen reporting unit of $34,434, using a WACC of 13.0%

• A full impairment of the goodwill of our VIDA reporting unit of $26,017, based upon our negotiated sale price

86

Fiscal 2019

During fiscal 2019, we identified triggering events associated with our Printi reporting unit, which indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is below the carrying amount. Printi is the leader in Brazil's online printing industry and has grown quickly since its founding. That said, investment in capacity and other fixed costs was far too high in fiscal year 2019 relative to the scale of the business and the mid-term outlook. As a result, we implemented restructuring activities and aligned future operating plans during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 that negatively impacted our cash flow forecasts for this business. Based upon these changes to the business, we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unity was below the carrying amount. We concluded that the fair value of the reporting unit indicated a full impairment of the Printi goodwill, resulting in an impairment charge of $7,503.

___________________

(1) The increase in income and indirect taxes is primarily due to government incentive programs in certain European jurisdictions, which has allowed for the deferral of payment of indirect taxes until fiscal 2021.

(2) The decline in advertising, production and shipping costs is due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions, which drove lower demand and a reduction in costs during the fourth quarter of the year ended June 30, 2020.

(3) The increase in interest payable is due to the additional offering of $200,000 of Senior Unsecured Notes in the third quarter and $300,000 in Second Lien Notes issued to Apollo Global Management, Inc. during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 10 for further detail.

___________________

(1) Due to our adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA, and Dallas, TX leases, which were previously classified as build-to-suit, are now classified as operating leases and therefore the lease financing obligation has been de-recognized. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

(2) Balances as of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 are inclusive of short-term debt issuance costs, debt premiums and discounts of $10,362 and $2,419, respectively.

Our Debt

Our various debt arrangements described below contain customary representations, warranties and events of default. As of June 30, 2020, the pre-existing financial maintenance covenants under our senior secured credit facility covenants are suspended, and we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants under the credit agreement as amended, senior unsecured notes indenture, and second lien indenture.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On April 28, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement to suspend pre-existing maintenance covenants, including the total and senior secured leverage covenants and interest coverage ratio covenant, until the publication of our results for the quarter ending December 31, 2021, for which quarter the pre-amendment maintenance covenants will be reinstated. The covenant suspension period could end earlier at our election if we have total leverage equal to or lower than 4.75x annualized EBITDA for each of two consecutive quarters and are compliant with pre-amendment maintenance covenants.

During the suspension period, we are required to comply with new maintenance covenants requiring minimum liquidity (defined in the credit agreement as unrestricted cash plus unused revolver) of $50,000 and EBITDA above zero in each of the quarters ending June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The amendment increased pricing to LIBOR plus 3.25% during the covenant suspension period and to LIBOR plus 2.50% to 3.25% after the covenant suspension period, depending on our total leverage ratio, including a 0.75% floor for LIBOR borrowings. Additionally, as part of the amendment, the maturity date was changed from February 2025 to November 2024. The amendment to the senior secured credit agreement also reduced the credit facility from $1,551,419 to $1,000,000, made up of an $850,000 revolver and $150,000 term loan.

During the covenant suspension period, we have more restrictive limitations on certain activities and actions, including but not limited to:

• the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens,

• the consummation of certain investments, including acquisitions,

• the making of restricted payments, including the purchases of our ordinary shares and payment of dividends.

As of June 30, 2020, we have drawn commitments under the credit facility of $570,483 as follows:

• Revolving loans of $422,358 with a maturity date of November 15, 2024

• Term loans of $148,125 amortizing over the loan period, with a final maturity date of November 15, 2024

As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 5.4%, inclusive of interest rate swap rates. We are also required to pay a commitment fee on unused balances of 0.35% to 0.5%

89

depending on our total leverage ratio, and 0.5% during the covenant suspension period . We have pledged the assets and/or share capital of a number of our subsidiaries as collateral for our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2020.

Indenture and Second Lien Notes

On May 1, 2020, we issued second lien notes and warrants to raise $300,000 from funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (the "Apollo Funds") via a private placement. These notes and warrants were issued at a discount of $6,000, resulting in net proceeds of $294,000. We used the proceeds to pay down a portion of the term loans under our senior secured credit facility and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the financing and the above-described amendment.

The investment by the Apollo Funds is structured as 5-year second lien notes with a 12% coupon, of which up to 50% can be paid-in-kind at our option. We may prepay these notes in whole or in part after the first anniversary with a 3% premium, after the second anniversary with a 1% premium, and after the third anniversary with no premium with proceeds from certain debt financings. The Apollo Funds also received 7-year warrants to purchase 1,055,377 ordinary shares of Cimpress, representing approximately 3.875% of our outstanding diluted ordinary shares. Based on the terms of the agreement, the two instruments exist separately and should be treated as separate securities; therefore the warrants are considered to be detachable.

The warrants have an exercise price of $60 per share, representing an approximately 17% premium to the 10-day volume weighted average price of our shares as of April 28, 2020. The warrants are classified as equity as they are strictly redeemable in our own shares, and they may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

The warrants are accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires us to bifurcate and separately account for the detachable warrant as a separated instrument. The values were assigned to detachable warrants based on a relative fair allocation between the second lien notes and the warrants. The fair value used for the warrants in this allocation was calculated using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The inputs to the fair value analysis are considered Level 3 inputs, and consist of estimates of the expected volatility over the contract term of the warrants, taking into consideration the historical stock volatility, as well as industry and market conditions. Based upon the terms of the note and warrant agreement, the warrants were determined to be equity-based instruments.

The valuation of the notes and warrants resulted in a carrying value allocated to the warrants of $22,432, which, in addition to be being accounted for as an equity instrument recorded in additional paid in capital, will also be included as a discount to the second lien notes, in addition to the $6,000 discount at which they were issued. The full discount will be amortized over the life of the notes.

Indenture and Senior Unsecured Notes

On February 13, 2020, we completed an additional offering of $200,000 in aggregate principal of 7.0% notes under the senior notes indenture between Cimpress plc and U.S. Bank National Association (as successor trustee to MUFG Union Bank, N.A.) at a premium of 105.25%. These notes were issued in addition to the existing principal balance under the indenture of $400,000, and are collectively referred to as the 2026 Notes. All terms and covenants of the senior notes indenture remain unchanged. The net proceeds from this add-on offering were used to repay a portion of the indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured credit facility and related transaction fees and expenses.

The 2026 Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and mature on June 15, 2026. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year to the holders of record of the 2026 Notes at the close of business on June 1 and December 1, respectively, preceding such interest payment date.

The 2026 Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all our existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated debt. The Notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. Subject to certain exceptions, each of our existing and future subsidiaries that is a borrower under or guarantees our senior secured credit facilities also guarantees the 2026 Notes.

90

We have the right to redeem, at any time prior to June 15, 2021, some or all of the 2026 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed, plus a make-whole amount as set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, we have the right to redeem, at any time prior to June 15, 2021, up to 40% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2026 Notes at a redemption price equal to 107% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date, with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings by Cimpress. At any time on or after June 15, 2021, we may redeem some or all of the Notes at the redemption prices specified in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

Other Debt

Other debt consists primarily of term loans acquired through our various acquisitions or used to fund certain capital investments. As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we had $11,694 and $14,361, respectively, outstanding for those obligations that are payable through March 2025.

Debt Issuance Costs

During the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we capitalized debt issuance costs related to the refinancing of our senior secured credit facility, and issuance of additional senior unsecured notes, and issuance of the second lien notes of $23,208 and $1,800, respectively.

Amortization expense and the write-off of costs related to debt amendments and modifications are included in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we amortized $3,240, $2,367 and $1,821, respectively. As part of the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured credit facility, we also expensed $568 of third-party fees associated with the modification of the term loans and wrote-off $1,438 of unamortized fees associated with the revolving loans, due to the reduction in loan commitments. During the year ended June 30, 2018, we expensed $2,921 of unamortized costs related to the extinguishment of our senior unsecured notes, which was presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations as part of loss on early extinguishment of debt.

Unamortized debt issuance costs and debt premiums (discounts) were $48,587 and $12,018 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

On February 12, 2019, we announced that our Board authorized the repurchase of up to 5,500,000 of our ordinary shares, on the open market (including block trades), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we purchased 4,119,965 shares under this authorization for a cost of $521,168. The February Repurchase Program terminated on November 25, 2019 when we announced the new November Repurchase Program described immediately below.

On November 25, 2019, we announced that our Board had approved a new share repurchase program that replaced the February Repurchase Program described immediately above. Under this new program, we may repurchase up to 5,500,000 of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the open market (including block trades), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. This repurchase program expires on May 22, 2021, and we may suspend or discontinue our share repurchases at any time. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we purchased 882,053 shares under this share repurchase program for a cost of $105,888.

On November 5, 2019, we repurchased 750,000 of our outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, from two private investment partnerships affiliated with Prescott General Partners LLC ("PGP") at a price of $135.00 per share, representing a discount of $1.05 to the closing price of our ordinary shares on November 5, 2019 (the "Transaction").

91

PGP remained our largest shareholder, beneficially owning 3,906,492 of our ordinary shares immediately following the Transaction. In addition, Scott J. Vassalluzzo, a Managing Member of PGP, serves as a member of our Board of Directors. In light of the foregoing, the disinterested members of our Audit Committee reviewed the Transaction under our related person transaction policy and considered, amount other things, Mr. Vassalluzzo's and PGP's interest in the Transaction, the approximated dollar value of the Transaction, that the shares were being repurchased at a discount to the closing price, and the purpose and the potential benefits to Cimpress of entering into the Transaction. Based on these considerations, the disinterested members of the Audit Committee concluded that the Transaction was in our best interest. The Transaction was effected pursuant to the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors and announced on February 12, 2019.

On April 28, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement, which suspended our financial maintenance covenants in addition to prohibiting us from repurchasing shares during the suspension period. Refer to Note 10 for additional information.

Warrants

In conjunction with our issuance of the second lien notes, as described in Note 10, we also issued 7-year warrants, to purchase 1,055,377 ordinary shares of Cimpress, representing approximately 3.875% of our outstanding diluted ordinary shares. The warrants are accounted for as equity, as they are redeemable only in our own shares, with an exercise price of $60 per share. The warrants may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

The carrying value was assigned to detachable warrants based on a relative fair allocation between the second lien notes and the warrants, as described in Note 10. The fair value used for the warrants in this allocation was calculated using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The valuation of the notes and warrants resulted in a carrying value allocated to the warrants of $22,432, which, in addition to be being accounted for as an equity instrument recorded in additional paid in capital, will also be included as a discount to the second lien notes.

Share-based awards

The 2016 Performance Equity Plan (the "2016 Plan") became effective upon shareholder approval on May 27, 2016 and allows us to grant PSUs, entitling the recipient to receive Cimpress ordinary shares based upon continued service to Cimpress and the achievement of objective, predetermined appreciation of Cimpress' three-year moving average share price. We may grant PSUs under the 2016 Plan to our employees, officers, non-employee directors, consultants, and advisors. Subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends and other similar events, we may make awards under the 2016 Plan for up to 6,000,000 of our ordinary shares.

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 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 allows us to grant share options to our non-employee directors 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.

An aggregate of 5,815,482 ordinary shares were available for future awards under all of our share-based award plans as of June 30, 2020. For PSUs under our 2016 Plan, we assumed that we would issue ordinary shares

92

equal to 250% of the outstanding PSUs, which is the maximum potential share issuance. Treasury shares have historically been used in fulfillment of our share-based awards.

Share options

We have previously granted 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 vested over 3 years for non-employee directors and over 4 years 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. 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.

We did not grant any share options in fiscal 2020. A summary of our share option activity and related information for the year ended June 30, 2020 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	1,431,914		$	50.27	0.9
Granted	—		—
Exercised	(1,321,376	)	49.85
Forfeited/expired	—		—
Outstanding at the end of the period	110,538		$	55.27	1.0	$	2,348,957
Exercisable at the end of the period	110,538		$	55.27	1.0	$	2,348,957

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, 2020. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $92,582, $12,498 and $46,853, respectively.

Performance share units - 2016 Performance Equity Plan

The PSU awards entitle the recipient to receive Cimpress ordinary shares between 0% and 250% of the number of units, based upon continued service to Cimpress and the achievement of a compounded annual growth rate target based on Cimpress' three-year moving average share price. Awards with a grant date prior to fiscal 2020 will be assessed annually in years 6 - 10 following the grant date and awards with a grant date in fiscal 2020 will be assessed annually in years 4 - 8 following the grant date. The fair value of the PSUs is based on a Monte Carlo simulation, and the resulting expense is recognized on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period.

During fiscal 2018, we issued supplemental performance share units ("supplemental PSUs") to certain members of management (excluding Robert Keane, our Chairman and CEO) that were incremental to our typical long-term incentive awards. The supplemental PSUs were subject to a three-year cumulative financial performance condition and as of June 30, 2020 the performance condition was not achieved. In fiscal 2018 we concluded that the achievement of the three-year cumulative performance condition was probable and recognized expense of $15,397, which we subsequently reversed in fiscal 2019 when we concluded that the achievement was no longer probable.

93

A summary of our PSU activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

	PSUs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at the beginning of the period	821,745		$	132.55
Granted	295,239		142.90
Vested and distributed	—		—
Forfeited	(82,787	)	152.71
Outstanding at the end of the period	1,034,197		$	133.89	$	78,951

The weighted average fair value of PSUs granted during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $142.90, $176.16, and $115.02, respectively. The total intrinsic value of PSUs outstanding at the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $78,951, $74,688 and $98,683, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the number of shares subject to PSUs included in the table above assumes the issuance of one share for each PSU, but based on actual performance that amount delivered can range from zero shares to a maximum of 2,585,493 shares.

Restricted share units

The fair value of an RSU award is equal to the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant and the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. RSUs generally vest over 4 years, however, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we replaced a portion of some employees' salaries with RSU awards that generally vest after 4.5 months. We granted 193,365 RSUs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. This program was put in place, as one of several measures taken to improve liquidity during the pandemic. As of July 1, 2020, we suspended the program but will consider providing future grants in lieu of cash compensation if necessary.

A summary of our RSU activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

	RSUs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Unvested at the beginning of the period	10,196		$	86.37
Granted	193,365		46.94
Vested and distributed	(19,177	)	65.01
Forfeited	(7,151	)	51.49
Unvested at the end of the period	177,233		$	47.06	$	13,530

We did not grant any RSUs during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The total intrinsic value of RSUs vested during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $1,905, $6,749 and $11,581, respectively.

Restricted share awards

As part of our acquisition of Tradeprint during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we issued 65,050 restricted ordinary shares. The fair value of the RSAs was determined based on our share price on the date of grant and was recognized as share-based compensation expense over the applicable service period. These awards vested over a 2 to 4 year period. The remaining 4,145 unvested shares vested during the year ended June 30, 2020, with a weighted average grant date value of $64.53.

Share-based compensation

Total share-based compensation costs were $34,874, $21,716 and $50,466 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and we elected to recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur.

94

From time to time we issue awards that are considered liability-based awards as they are settleable in cash. We previously had a liability-based award associated with our Printi LLC investment and we had fully reserved for the loan receivable in fiscal 2019 and throughout fiscal 2020 since the collateral value of the related liability was estimated to have no value. This agreement was settled in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, refer to Note 15 for additional details.

Share-based compensation costs capitalized as part of software and website development costs were $1,157, $1,141 and $1,607 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As of June 30, 2020, there was $29,165 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested, share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.

12. Employees’ Savings Plans

Defined contribution plans

We maintain certain government-mandated and defined contribution plans throughout the world. Our most significant defined contribution retirement plans are in the U.S. and comply with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. We offer eligible employees in the U.S. the opportunity to participate in one of these plans and match most employees' eligible contributions at various rates subject to service vesting as specified in each of the related plan documents. This matching program has been temporarily suspended as of March 2020, and will continue to be paused on a discretionary basis through at least December 31, 2020.

We expensed $10,710, $11,401 and $11,723, for our government-mandated and defined contribution plans in the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Defined benefit plan

We currently have a 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, 2020 and 2019, the plan had an unfunded net pension obligation of approximately $2,743, and $1,525, respectively, and plan assets which totaled approximately $3,403 and $2,849, respectively. For the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 we recognized expense totaling $399, $424 and $55, respectively, related to our Swiss plan.

13. Income Taxes

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

For the year ended June 30, 2020, our effective tax rate was significantly impacted by Swiss Tax Reform, as discussed in more detail below. Without the Swiss Tax Reform benefit, our effective tax rate for the year was above our U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible goodwill impairments and losses in certain

96

jurisdictions for which we cannot recognize a tax benefit. The jurisdictions that have the most significant impact to our non-U.S. tax provision include Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland. The applicable tax rates in these jurisdictions range from 10% to 32%. The total tax rate benefit from operating in non-U.S. jurisdictions is included in the line “Tax rate differential on non-U.S. earnings” in the above tax rate reconciliation table.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, our effective tax rate was (2,697.0)% as compared to the prior year effective tax rate of 26.3%. The decrease in our effective tax rate as compared to the prior year is primarily due to Swiss Tax Reform. Also, in addition to a more favorable mix of earnings year-over-year, we recognized tax benefits of $15,705 related to excess tax benefits from share based compensation, as compared to $1,539 in fiscal 2019, and $11,188 for the re-measurement of U.S. tax losses that will be carried back to tax years with higher U.S. federal tax rates under the US CARES Act. We also recognized tax expense of $41,900 to record a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets and a portion for our Irish deferred tax assets. The change in judgment to no longer recognize the deferred tax assets was driven by decreased profits due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and goodwill impairments. During fiscal 2020 we recognized "Patent Box" tax benefits granted to our Pixartprinting business in Italy of $728, as compared to $4,260 in fiscal 2019 representing three years' worth of benefits. Our fiscal year 2019 effective tax rate was lower than fiscal year 2018 primarily due a more favorable geographic mix on increased profits and the Italian Patent Box benefits, offset by decreased share-based compensation tax benefits of $1,539 as compared to $12,802 in fiscal 2018.

On October 25, 2019, the canton of Zurich enacted tax law changes by publishing the results of its referendum to adopt the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF), which we refer to as Swiss Tax Reform. Swiss Tax Reform was effective as of January 1, 2020 and included the abolishment of various favorable federal and cantonal tax regimes. Swiss Tax Reform provided transitional relief measures for companies that lost the tax benefit of a ruling, including a "step-up" for amortizable goodwill, equal to the amount of future tax benefit they would have received under their existing ruling, subject to certain limitations. We recognized a tax benefit of $113,482 to establish new Swiss deferred tax assets related to transitional relief measures and to remeasure our existing Swiss deferred tax assets and liabilities. We don't expect to realize the majority of this benefit until fiscal 2025 through fiscal 2030.

97

Significant components of our deferred income tax assets and liabilities consisted of the following at June 30, 2020 and 2019:

	June 30, 2020			June 30, 2019
Deferred tax assets:
Swiss tax reform amortizable goodwill	$	127,965		$	—
Net operating loss carryforwards	62,374			80,832
Capital leases	33,078			31,010
Depreciation and amortization	4,308			3,315
Accrued expenses	6,253			6,441
Share-based compensation	9,482			11,241
Credit and other carryforwards	29,216			24,714
Derivative financial instruments	6,739			2,924
Other	7,551			3,167
Subtotal	286,966			163,644
Valuation allowance	(91,575		)	(59,410		)
Total deferred tax assets	195,391			104,234
Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation and amortization	(41,017		)	(50,091		)
Capital leases	(30,433		)	(27,694		)
Investment in flow-through entity	(3,550		)	(3,078		)
Tax on unremitted earnings	(6,203		)	(5,145		)
Other	(4,502		)	(2,851		)
Total deferred tax liabilities	(85,705		)	(88,859		)
Net deferred tax assets	$	109,686		$	15,375

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The increase in the valuation allowance from the prior year relates primarily to losses in certain jurisdictions (mainly the United States, Ireland, Brazil, China, Japan, and the United Kingdom) for which management has determined we cannot recognize the related deferred tax assets based on trailing three-year pre-tax profit or loss adjusted for permanent book versus tax differences. In addition, losses on certain of our derivative financial instruments grew, resulting in an additional increase to the valuation allowance. Also, Cimpress plc generated $2,442 of Irish foreign tax credit carryforwards which do not expire, but for which management has determined it is more likely than not that these will not be utilized upon future repatriation. Offsetting the overall increase in the valuation allowance, we wrote-off deferred tax assets of $14,240 and the corresponding valuation allowance related to Cimpress N.V.'s Irish foreign tax credit carryforwards as these do not transfer to Cimpress plc subsequent to the Irish Merger.

We have recorded a full valuation allowance against $6,739 of deferred tax asset related to interest rate swaps for which management has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be recognized in the foreseeable future. The impact of this deferred tax asset and associated valuation allowance of $5,213 has been recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss on the balance sheet. The remaining valuation allowance of $1,526 was recorded to continuing operations. Additionally, we have recorded valuation allowances of $22,180 and $4,114 against deferred tax assets related to U.S. research and development credits and U.S. capital loss carryforwards, respectively, for which management has determined that it is more likely than not that these will not be utilized within the applicable carryforward periods available under local law.

We have recorded a partial valuation allowance of $1,149 related to the Swiss Tax Reform amortizable goodwill deferred tax asset as our current projections indicate we may not be able to utilize the full benefit. We have not recorded a valuation allowance against $20,036 of deferred tax asset associated with prior year tax losses generated in Switzerland. Management believes there is sufficient positive evidence in the form of historical and future projected profitability to conclude that it is more likely than not that all of the losses in Switzerland will be utilized against future taxable profits within the available carryforward period. Our assessments are reliant on the

98

attainment of our future operating profit goals. Failure to achieve these operating profit goals may change our assessment of these deferred tax assets, and such change would result in additional valuation allowance and an increase in income tax expense to be recorded in the period of the change in assessment. We will continue to review our forecasts and profitability trends on a quarterly basis.

Based on the weight of available evidence at June 30, 2020, 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 on a quarterly basis.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the valuation allowance for the year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

Balance at June 30, 2019	$	59,410
Charges to earnings (1)	36,833
Charges to other accounts (2)	(6,198		)
Balance at June 30, 2020	$	90,045

_________________

(1) Amount is primarily related to U.S. research and development credits and capital loss carryforwards, U.S. and non-U.S. net operating losses, Irish foreign tax credits and Swiss tax reform amortizable goodwill.

(2) Amount is primarily related to decrease in deferred tax assets on non-U.S. net operating losses due to currency exchange rate changes and sale of VIDA, offset by unrealized losses on interest rate swaps included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

As of June 30, 2020, we had gross U.S. federal and apportioned state net operating losses of approximately $41,107 that expire on various dates from fiscal 2036 through fiscal 2040 or with unlimited carryforward. We also had gross non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $426,027, a significant amount of which begin to expire in fiscal 2023, with the remaining amounts expiring on various dates from fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2029 or with unlimited carryforward. In addition, we had $26,814 of tax credit carryforwards primarily related to U.S. federal and state research and development credits, which expire on various dates beginning in fiscal 2031 or with unlimited carryforward. Lastly, we had $18,164 and $5,662 of U.S. federal and apportioned state capital loss carryforwards, respectively, which expire in fiscal 2025. The benefits of these carryforwards are dependent upon the generation of taxable income in the jurisdictions where they arose.

We consider the following factors, among others, in evaluating our plans for indefinite reinvestment of our subsidiaries’ earnings: (i) the forecasts, budgets and financial requirements of both our parent company and its subsidiaries, both for the long term and for the short term; (ii) the ability of Cimpress plc to fund its operations and obligations with earnings from other businesses within the global group without incurring substantial tax costs; and (iii) the tax consequences of any decision to reinvest earnings of any subsidiary. As of June 30, 2020, no tax provision has been made for $36,584 of undistributed earnings of certain of our subsidiaries as these earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested. If, in the future, we decide to repatriate the undistributed earnings from these subsidiaries in the form of dividends or otherwise, we could be subject to withholding taxes payable in the range of $9,000 to $10,000 at that time. A cumulative deferred tax liability of $6,203 has been recorded attributable to undistributed earnings that we have deemed are not indefinitely reinvested. The remaining undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries are not deemed to be indefinitely reinvested and can be repatriated with no tax cost. Accordingly, there has been no provision for income or withholding taxes on these earnings. 

We currently benefit from various income tax holidays in certain jurisdictions. The tax holidays expire on various dates from October 2020 through August 2022. When the tax holidays expire, we will be subject to tax at rates ranging from 10% to 30%. As a result of the tax holidays, our net income was higher by $457 for fiscal 2020.

Cumulative translation adjustment	(4		)
Balance June 30, 2020	$	5,847

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits (exclusive of interest) that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $912. 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $384, $515 and $448, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a further change in unrecognized tax benefits in the range of $165 to $450 may occur within the next twelve months related to the settlement of one or more audits or the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations. 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 2014 through 2019 remain open for examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the years 2014 through 2019 remain open for examination in the various states and non-US tax jurisdictions in which we file tax returns.

We are currently under income tax audit in certain jurisdictions globally. We believe that our income tax reserves are adequately maintained taking into consideration both the technical merits of our tax return positions and ongoing developments in our income tax audits. However, the final determination of our tax return positions, if audited, is uncertain and therefore there is a possibility that final resolution of these matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.

14. Noncontrolling Interests

For some of our subsidiaries, we own a controlling equity stake, and a third party or key member of the business' management team owns a minority portion of the equity. The balance sheet and operating activity of these entities are included in our consolidated financial statements and 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 redeemable noncontrolling interests as temporary equity within our consolidated balance sheet and the proportionate share of noncontrolling interests not subject to a redemption provision that is outside of our control as equity. We recognize redeemable noncontrolling interests at fair value on the sale or acquisition date and adjust to the redemption value on a periodic basis with the offset to retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet. If the formulaic redemption value exceeds the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, then the accretion to redemption value is offset to the net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in our consolidated statement of operations.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

PrintBrothers

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we sold a minority equity interest in each of the three businesses within our PrintBrothers reportable segment to members of the management team. We received proceeds of €50,173 ($57,046 based on the exchange rate on the date we received the proceeds) in exchange for an equity interest in each of the businesses ranging from 12% to 13%. As of June 30, 2019, we recognized the redeemable noncontrolling interest at fair value of $57,046. The put options associated with the redeemable noncontrolling interest are exercisable beginning in 2021, while the associated call options become exercisable in 2026. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we recorded an adjustment of $5,493 to increase the carrying value to the estimated redemption amounts, with the offset recognized in retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet, since the estimated redemption amounts were less than the fair value. As of June 30, 2020, the redemption value was less than the carrying value, due in part to the decline in performance driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, and therefore no adjustment was required.

All Other Businesses

On October 1, 2018, we acquired approximately 99% of the outstanding equity interests of Build A Sign LLC. The remaining 1% is considered a redeemable noncontrolling equity interest, as it is redeemable for cash based on future financial results through put and call rights and not solely within our control. On the acquisition date, we recognized the redeemable noncontrolling interest at fair value of $3,356. As of June 30, 2020, the redemption value was less than the carrying value, and therefore no adjustment was required.

On July 2, 2018, we acquired approximately 73% of the shares of VIDA Group Co. and on April 10, 2020, we sold all of the shares we held in the VIDA business. Prior to the sale, the carrying value of the VIDA redeemable noncontrolling equity interest was zero.

The following table presents the reconciliation of changes in our redeemable noncontrolling interests:

Balance as of June 30, 2018	$	86,151
Proceeds from sale of noncontrolling interest	57,046
Acquisition of noncontrolling interest	9,061
Accretion to redemption value recognized in retained earnings	7,133

___________________

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we acquired majority equity interests related to two immaterial businesses within our PrintBrothers reportable segment.

(2) Accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interests to redemption value recognized in retained earnings is the result of the redemption amount estimated to be greater than carrying value but less than fair value. Refer above for additional details.

15. Variable Interest Entity ("VIE")

Investment in Printi LLC

As of June 30, 2020, we have a 96.3% equity interest in Printi LLC, which owns an operating company in Brazil, and the shareholders of Printi share profits and voting control on a pro-rata basis. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we entered into an agreement to purchase an additional 42.6% economic interest in Printi. In exchange for acquiring the additional equity interest, we did not make any additional outlays of cash; rather we forgave loans provided to two previous Printi equity holders, which previously represented prepayments for our purchase of their equity interests. Prior to purchasing the additional equity interest, the carrying value of the related loans were zero as we fully reserved for the loan receivable in fiscal year 2019 when we determined the collateral was estimated to have no value.

For the remaining minority equity interest, we previously agreed to acquire the remaining shares in Printi through a reciprocal put and call structure, contractually exercisable from April 1, 2021 through a mandatory redemption date of July 31, 2023. This contractual obligation is presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet and we adjust the liability to its estimated redemption value each reporting period and recognize any changes within interest expense, net in our consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the carrying value of this liability is zero, based on its estimated redemption value.

16. Segment Information

Our operating segments are based upon the manner in which our operations are managed and the availability of separate financial information reported internally to the Chief Executive Officer, who is our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for purposes of making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised our internal organizational and reporting structure leading to changes in our Vistaprint and All Other Businesses reportable segments. Our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions, Vistaprint India, and Vistaprint Japan businesses, which were previously aggregated based on materiality in our All Other Businesses, are now directly managed within the Vistaprint business. These businesses are close derivatives or adjacencies of the Vistaprint business and leverage the Vistaprint brand, customers, technology, and/or other

102

assets. This change in reporting structure positions them closer to the Vistaprint operations, capabilities, and resources. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we reorganized technology teams that previously existed within our Vistaprint business and our central teams. The reorganization resulted in some team member reductions in both organizations, and the net transfer of 177 team members from Vistaprint to our central Cimpress technology team. This change is intended to free up resources to make more Vistaprint technologies available to other Cimpress businesses in the future, to accelerate Vistaprint's re-platforming efforts, and to reduce costs where no longer necessary. We have revised our presentation of all prior periods presented to reflect our revised segment reporting for the two changes made during fiscal 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, we have numerous operating segments under our management reporting structure which are reported in the following five reportable segments:

• Vistaprint - Includes the operations of our global Vistaprint websites and our Webs-branded business, which is managed with the Vistaprint-branded digital business. Also included is our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions business which serves medium-sized businesses and large corporations, as well as a legacy revenue stream with retail partners and franchise businesses

• PrintBrothers - Includes the results of our druck.at, Printdeal, and WIRmachenDRUCK businesses

• The Print Group - Includes the results of our Easyflyer, Exaprint, Pixartprinting, and Tradeprint businesses

• National Pen - Includes the global operations of our National Pen business, which manufactures and markets custom writing instruments and promotional products, apparel and gifts

• All Other Businesses - Includes a collection of businesses grouped together based on materiality:

◦ BuildASign is an internet-based provider of canvas-print wall décor, business signage and other large-format printed products, based in Austin, Texas. 

◦ Printi is an online printing leader in Brazil, which offers a superior customer experience with transparent and attractive pricing, reliable service and quality.

◦ VIDA was part All Other Businesses segment through April 10, 2020, the date on which we sold our shares in the business.

◦ YSD is a startup operation that provides end-to-end mass customization solutions to brands and intellectual property owners in China, supporting multiple channels including retail stores, websites, WeChat and e-commerce platforms to enhance brand awareness and competitiveness and develop new markets.

Central and corporate costs consist primarily of the team of software engineers that is building our mass customization platform; shared service organizations such as global procurement; technology services such as hosting and security; administrative costs of our Cimpress India offices where numerous Cimpress businesses have dedicated business-specific team members; and corporate functions including our Board of Directors, CEO, and the team members necessary for managing corporate activities, such as treasury, tax, capital allocation, financial consolidation, internal audit and legal. These costs also include certain unallocated share-based compensation costs.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we changed our segment profitability measure to an adjusted EBITDA metric. The financial metric that we use to hold our businesses accountable on an annual basis is unlevered free cash flow. Historically, we have reported segment profit based on adjusted net operating profit; however, this is not a direct input to unlevered free cash flow. We believe this change simplifies both our internal and external reporting, while also increasing the focus on a profitability metric that is a direct input into our internal operating measure, our steady-state free cash flow analysis that we report annually and our estimates of intrinsic value per share.    

The primary difference between the segment profit we previously reported and the revised metric is depreciation and amortization. The prior adjusted NOP-based metric only removed amortization of acquired intangibles, and the new segment EBITDA metric removes all depreciation and amortization, except for depreciation expense related to our Waltham, Massachusetts lease, which we treat in our historical results as operating expense. The new segment EBITDA metric does include the cost of long-term incentive programs, including share-based compensation, just as the prior adjusted NOP-based metric.

103

For awards granted under our 2016 Performance Equity Plan, the PSU expense value is based on a Monte Carlo fair value analysis and is required to be expensed on an accelerated basis. In order to ensure comparability in measuring our businesses' results, we allocate the straight-line portion of the fixed grant value to our businesses. Any expense in excess of the amount as a result of the fair value measurement of the PSUs and the accelerated expense profile of the awards is recognized within central and corporate costs. All expense or benefit associated with our supplemental PSUs is recognized within central and corporate costs.

Our definition of segment EBITDA is GAAP operating income excluding certain items, such as depreciation and amortization (with the exception of depreciation expense associated with our Waltham, Massachusetts lease for periods prior to our adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019), expense recognized for contingent earn-out related charges including the changes in fair value of contingent consideration and compensation expense related to cash-based earn-out mechanisms dependent upon continued employment, share-based compensation related to investment consideration, certain impairment expense, and restructuring charges. For historical periods presented, a portion of the interest expense associated with our Waltham, Massachusetts lease is included as expense in segment EBITDA and allocated based on headcount to the appropriate business or corporate and global function. The interest expense represents a portion of the cash rent payment and is considered an operating expense for purposes of measuring our segment performance. Beginning in fiscal 2020, as part of our adoption of the new leasing standard, the accounting treatment for our Waltham, Massachusetts lease has changed to an operating lease, so the expense associated with this lease is reflected in operating income and no longer requires an adjustment to segment EBITDA. We do not allocate non-operating income, including realized gains and losses on currency hedges, to our segment results.

Our All Other Businesses reportable segment includes businesses that have operating losses as they are in the early stage of investment relative to the scale of the underlying businesses, which may limit its comparability to other segments regarding segment EBITDA.

Our balance sheet information is not presented to the CODM on an allocated basis, and therefore we do not present asset information by segment. We do present other segment information to the CODM, which includes purchases of property, plant and equipment and capitalization of software and website development costs, and therefore include that information in the tables below.

Revenue by segment is based on the business-specific websites or sales channel through which the customer’s order was transacted. The following tables set forth revenue by reportable segment, as well as disaggregation of revenue by major geographic region and reportable segment.

(1) Upon the adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA lease, which was previously classified as build-to-suit, is now classified as an operating lease under the new standard. Therefore, the Waltham depreciation and interest expense adjustments that were made in comparative periods will no longer be made beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, as any impact from the Waltham lease will be reflected in operating income. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

(2) Includes impairments of goodwill defined by ASC 350 - "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" of $100,842, as well as losses of $1,520 recognized for fair value adjustments to the disposal group related to our VIDA sale during the year ended June 30, 2020. During fiscal year 2019 we recognized reserves for loans as defined by ASC 326 - "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses".

(3) Includes the impact of the gain on the sale of Albumprinter that was recognized in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statement of operations during the year ended June 30, 2018.

Other Obligations

We deferred payments for several of our acquisitions resulting in the recognition of a liability of $2,289 in aggregate as of June 30, 2020.

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. For all legal matters, 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 Charges

Restructuring costs include one-time employee termination benefits, acceleration of share-based compensation, write-off of assets and other related costs including third-party professional and outplacement services.

We also incurred charges of $3,211, $535 and $475 in our National Pen, All Other Businesses and The Print Group reportable segments, respectively during the year ended June 30, 2020, for various cost reduction measures primarily in response to the pandemic.

During the year ended June 30, 2018, we recognized changes in estimates of $56 from our January 2017 restructuring initiative.

(1) In the periods in which a net loss is recognized, the impact of share options, warrants, RSUs, and RSA's are anti-dilutive, and therefore our basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.

Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to Cimpress plc are computed independently for each of the quarters presented. Therefore, the sum of quarterly basic and diluted per share information may not equal annual basic and diluted net income per share.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreement 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, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or 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, 2020, 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

There were no significant 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 three months ended June 30, 2020 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

112

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 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer and effected by our Board of Directors, 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.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020, as stated in their report included on pages 54-56.

EX-4.6

DESCRIPTION OF REGISTERED SECURITIES OF CIMPRESS PLC

Our capital structure

Cimpress plc has an authorized share capital of €2,025,000 comprising 100,000,000 ordinary shares of €0.01 each, 100,000,000 preferred shares of €0.01 each, and 25,000 deferred ordinary shares of €1.00 each.

The authorized share capital includes 25,000 deferred ordinary shares of €1.00 each in order to satisfy minimum statutory capital requirements for all Irish public limited companies. The holders of the deferred ordinary shares are not entitled to receive any dividend or distribution, to attend, speak or vote at any general meeting, and have no effective rights to participate in the assets of Cimpress plc.

Cimpress plc has registered its ordinary shares pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act.

Voting rights

Each of our ordinary shares is entitled to one vote. Under our Constitution, holders of at least a simple majority of the shares issued and entitled to vote at a general meeting of shareholders constitute a quorum.

Under the Irish Companies Act and our Constitution, certain matters require “ordinary resolutions,” which must be approved by at least a majority of the votes cast by shareholders at a general meeting, and certain other matters require “special resolutions,” which require the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the votes cast by shareholders at a general meeting.

An ordinary resolution is needed (among other matters) to: remove a director; provide, vary or renew the directors’ authority to allot shares and to appoint directors (where appointment is by shareholders).

A special resolution is needed (among other matters) to: alter a company’s constitution, exclude statutory preemptive rights on allotment of securities for cash (up to five years); reduce a company’s share capital; re-register a public company as a private company (or vice versa); and approve a scheme of arrangement.

Preemptive rights

Under Irish law, certain statutory preemption rights apply automatically in favor of shareholders where shares are to be issued for cash. However, we have opted to disapply these preemption rights in our Constitution in respect of ordinary shares with an aggregate par value amount up to the maximum of our authorized but unissued share capital. This disapplication expires in November 2024.

Irish law requires this disapplication to be renewed at least every five years by 75% of the votes cast at a general meeting of shareholders. If the disapplication is not renewed,our ordinary shares issued for cash must be offered to our existing shareholders on a pro rata basis to their existing shareholdings before our ordinary shares may be issued to any new shareholders.

Statutory preemption rights do not apply (i) where shares are issued for non-cash consideration (such as in a stock-for-stock acquisition); (ii) to the issue of non-equity shares (that is, shares that have the right to participate only up to a specified amount in any income or capital distribution); or (iii) where shares are issued pursuant to an employee stock option or similar equity plan.

Rotating terms of Board of Directors

The members of our Board of Directors serve for rotating terms of up to three years.

EX-10.7

[Form of]

2011 Equity Incentive Plan

Restricted Share Unit Agreement

1.    Grant of Award. This Agreement evidences the grant by Cimpress plc, an Irish public limited company (the “Company”), on [date] to [name] (the “Participant”) of [number] restricted share units (the “Units”) with respect to a total of [number]ordinary shares of the Company, €0.01nominal value per share (the “Shares”), on the terms of this Agreement and the Company’s 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term “Participant,” as used in this award, is deemed to include any person who acquires rights under this award validly under its terms.

2.    Vesting.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this award, the Units vest in accordance with the following schedule. On each vesting date, each Unit becoming vested is automatically converted into a Share on a one-to-one basis.

• [vesting schedule]

•

(b)    This vesting schedule requires that, at the time any Units vest, the Participant is, and has been at all times since the date in Section 1 above on which the Units were granted, an employee, officer or director of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 424(e) or (f) of the United StatesInternal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”). Therefore, the Participant expressly accepts and agrees that any termination of his or her relationship with the Company for any reason whatsoever (including without limitation unfair or objective dismissal, permanent disability, resignation or desistance) automatically means the forfeiture of all of his or her unvested Units, with no compensation whatsoever. The Participant acknowledges and accepts that this is an essential condition of this Agreement and expressly agrees to this condition. If the Participant is employed by a parent or subsidiary of the Company, any references in this Agreement to employment by or with the Company or termination of employment by or with the Company are instead deemed to refer to such parent or subsidiary.

(c)    If for any reason the Participant ceases to be an employee officer or director of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 2(b) above (an “Eligible Participant”), then the vesting of Units ceases and the Participant has no further rights with respect to any unvested Units. If the Participant violates the non-competition or confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company, then the vesting of Units ceases, and this award terminates immediately upon such violation.

3.Timing and Form of Distribution. The Company shall distribute to the Participant Shares on a one-to-one basis with respect to the Units that become vested on each vesting date, as soon as practicable after each vesting date but in no event later than 45 days after the applicable vesting date, except that in the case of Participants who are not subject to U.S. income taxes on this award, the Distribution Date may be a later date if required by local law. Each date of distribution of Shares is referred to as the “Distribution Date.” The Participant receives distributions only with respect to his or her vested Units and has no right to a distribution of Shares with respect to unvested Units unless and until such Units vest.

1

Once a Share with respect to a vested Unit has been distributed pursuant to this award, the Participant has no further rights with respect to that Unit.

4.    Withholding. The Participant is required to satisfy the payment of any Withholding Taxes required to be withheld with respect to the vesting of Units. “Withholding Taxes” includes, as applicable and without limitation, federal, state, local, foreign and provincial income tax, social insurance contributions, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items. The Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all taxes relating to this award is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount that the Company withholds. The Company has no obligation to structure the terms of this award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Withholding Taxes or to achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if the Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Withholding Taxes in more than one jurisdiction. In order to satisfy the Withholding Taxes owed with respect to the vesting of Units, the Participant agrees as follows:

(a)    Unless the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that the procedure set forth in this Section 4(a) is not advisable or unless the Participant is subject to Swiss income taxes on any income from this award, at the Distribution Date the Company shall withhold a number of Shares with a fair market value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the minimum amount of Withholding Taxes due on such Distribution Date.

(b)    If the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that the procedure set forth in Section 4(a) is not advisable or sufficient or if the Participant is subject to Swiss income taxes on any income from this award, then the Participant, as a condition to receiving any Shares upon the vesting of Units, shall (i) pay to the Company, by cash or check, or in the sole discretion of the Company, payroll deduction, an amount sufficient to satisfy any Withholding Taxes or otherwise make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment of such amounts (including through offset of any amounts otherwise payable by the Company to the Participant, including salary or other compensation); or (ii) if the Company requires, make an arrangement that is acceptable to the Company with a creditworthy broker to sell the number of Shares that the Company has instructed such broker is necessary to obtain proceeds sufficient to satisfy the Withholding Taxes applicable to the Shares to be distributed to the Participant on the Distribution Date and to remit such proceeds to the Company; or (iii) only if the Participant is subject to Swiss income taxes on any income from this award, instruct the Company to withhold Shares as set forth in Section 4(a) above. The Participant agrees to execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably required in connection with the sale of any Shares pursuant to this Section 4(b).

5.    Nontransferability of Award. The Participant shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber this award, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. However, with respect to any award that is exempt from the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the guidance thereunder (“Section 409A”) or with respect to a Participant who is not subject to U.S. income taxes on any income from this award, the Participant may transfer the award (a) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or (b) if the Company consents, to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust, family partnership or family limited liability company established solely for the benefit of the holder and/or an immediate family member of the holder, if, in each case, as a condition to the transfer the transferee agrees to be subject to, and bound by, the terms of this Agreement. However, the Participant shall not transfer this award to any proposed transferee if, with respect to such proposed transferee, the Company would not be eligible to use a Form S-8 for the registration of the issuance and sale of the Shares subject to this award under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

2

6.    No Right to Employment or Other Status. This award shall not be construed as giving the Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company. The Company and any parent or subsidiary of the Company expressly reserve the right to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with the Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or this award, except as expressly provided in this award.

7.    No Rights as Shareholder. The Participant has no rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares distributable under this award until such Shares are issued to the Participant.

8.    Provisions of the Plan. This award is subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is furnished to the Participant with this award.

9.    Nature of the Grant. By accepting this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges as follows:

(a)    The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan.

(b)    The grant of the Units is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Units or Shares or benefits in lieu of Units or Shares even if Units have been awarded repeatedly in the past. All decisions with respect to future grants of Units and/or Shares, if any, are at the Company’s sole discretion.

(c)    The Units and Shares are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company, and the Units are outside the scope of the Participant’s employment or services contract, if any.

(d)    The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan.

(e)    The Units, the Shares, and the income and value of the RSUs and Shares are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation.

(f)    The Units, the Shares, and the income and value of the Units and Shares are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose (including but not limited to the calculation of any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal or end of service payments; bonuses; long-service awards; pension, retirement or welfare benefits; or similar payments) and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company.

(g)    Unless the parties otherwise agree, the Units, the Shares, and the income and value of the same are not consideration for, or granted in connection with, any service the Participant may provide as a director of a subsidiary of the Company.

(h)    The future value of the Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Participant receives Shares, the value of such Shares may increase or decrease in value.

(i)    In consideration of the grant of the Units, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Units or Shares, diminution in value of the Shares or termination of the Participant’s employment or other service relationship by the Company for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of applicable labor laws or the Participant’s employment agreement, if any. The Participant irrevocably releases the Company from any such claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by

3

accepting this Agreement, the Participant is deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim.

(j)    Further, if the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of applicable labor laws or the Participant’s employment agreement, if any, the Participant’s right to vesting of the Units under this Agreement and the Plan, if any, terminates effective as of the date that the Participant is no longer actively employed by the Company or is no longer otherwise an Eligible Participant, and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under applicable law. The Company has the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer an Eligible Participant for purposes of this Agreement and the Plan.

(k)    The Participant acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any of its affiliates or agents is liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Units or Shares or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the vesting of the Units or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon vesting.

10.    Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with federal, state, local, foreign or provincial laws or to facilitate the administration of the Plan, except that with respect to awards that are subject to Section 409A, to the extent so permitted under Section 409A. Furthermore, the parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement and the Plan.

11.    Data Privacy.

(a)    The Participant is hereby informed that Cimpress plc will collect from the Participant through his or her employer (if not employed by Cimpress plc) certain personal information about the Participant, including the Participant’s personal data, such as his or her name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social security/insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all RSUs or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor (“Data”).

(b)    The Participant is hereby informed and aware that Cimpress plc will collect and process the Data described above to perform (i) its contractual obligations and activities pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan, as well as (ii) those activities in conformity with applicable law and regulations that Cimpress plc as a publicly traded company at the NASDAQ Global Select Market must adhere to. Such data processing activities of the Participant´s Data by Cimpress plc will therefore be for purposes including but not limited to implementing, administering and managing the Plan. Cimpress plc will process the Participant´s Data as described in this Section 11 for the term of this Agreement and after its termination for a period as required by the Plan, by law or as necessary for the protection of the Company´s legitimate interests.

(c)    The Participant will, in connection with the RSUs and the acquisition, holding and/or transfer of Shares or cash resulting from participation in the Plan, be provided with a brokerage account set up and managed by E*TRADE Financial Services, Inc. (including E*TRADE Securities LLC and any other involved affiliates or successors), a stock plan service provider located in the United States or such other stock plan service provider as the Company may select in the future (the “Service Provider”). As such, the Participant is hereby informed and aware that Cimpress plc will use and transfer (with assistance

4

of its subsidiary Cimpress USA Incorporated as described below under Section 11(e)), in electronic or other form, the Participant´s Data to the Service Provider insofar such use and transfer to the Service Provider of the Participant´s Data is necessary for the set up and management of the individual stock brokerage accounts and further related contractual obligations that apply to Cimpress plc under this Agreement and the Plan.

(d)    Cimpress plc is, with regard to the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, assisted within the Cimpress group of companies by its subsidiary Cimpress USA Incorporated. The Participant is hereby informed and aware that his or her Data, including his or her personal data, can therefore be transferred by Cimpress plc/Company to Cimpress USA Incorporated (or any other affiliated company in the Cimpress-group providing global-equity related services to Cimpress plc/Company) if the transfer of the Participant´s Data is necessary because the legitimate interests of Cimpress plc/Company require that the Data be handled by a US-entity for purposes including but not limited to the global administration and management of the Plan and related Cimpress equity strategy, as well as for global human resources, finance and/or reporting purposes. Besides the foregoing processing purposes of its legitimate interests, any transfer by Cimpress plc/Company to Cimpress USA Incorporated (and/or any other involved affiliated company in the Cimpress-group) or any employee with responsibilities relating to securities, compliance or legal may also be necessary in order to ensure Cimpress plc’s compliance with applicable legal obligations (including, without limitation, disclosures required to be made to courts or governmental authorities and agencies, with respect to tax requirements and in response to subpoenas and other legal process or orders).

(e)     Cimpress plc will ensure, in accordance with Article 46 of the Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (“GDPR”), that any transfer of personal data from Participants employed by an employer with a corporate seat in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or Switzerland to data controllers or data processors – such as the Service Provider or Cimpress USA Incorporated – located outside the borders of the EEA or Switzerland in a country that is viewed as not having an adequate level of protection (e.g., the United States) is subject to a prior agreement of those recipients with the EU standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data as included in the Commission Decisions of 27 December 2004 (2004/915/EC) and 5 February 2010 (2010/87/EC).

(f)    Cimpress plc will ensure in accordance with Article 9 of the GDPR that any sensitive data of the Participant (e.g., a passport or social security number) employed by an employer with a corporate seat in the EEA or Switzerland will only be collected and further processed in accordance with the purposes as set out in this Agreement and the Plan, after obtaining the Participant´s prior explicit consent.

(g)    The Participant may, when entitled thereto under the GDPR, exercise his or her data subject rights by requesting the Company for access to his or her personal data (including a copy of the personal data that Company holds about the Participant) or exercise his or her right to rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability and objection. The Participant can exercise most of the foregoing data subject rights himself or herself by using the related functionalities in his or her local human resources system or by accessing his or her brokerage account with the Service Provider. Alternatively, the Participant can submit such a ´data subject right´ request to his or her local HR representative or Cimpress´ LTI Plan Administrator.

12.    Change in Control Events.

(a)    Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control Event (as defined below), regardless of whether such event also constitutes a Reorganization Event (as defined in the Plan), except to the extent specifically otherwise provided in another agreement between the Company and the Participant, one-half of the number of then unvested Units become vested if, on or before the first anniversary of the date of the consummation of the Change in Control Event, the Participant’s employment with the Company or the acquiring or succeeding corporation is terminated for Good Reason (as defined below) by the Participant or is terminated without Cause (as defined below) by the Company or the acquiring or succeeding corporation.

(b)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control Event” means:

(i)    the acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership of any capital shares or equity of the Company if, after such acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under such Securities Exchange Act) 50% or more of either (x) the then-outstanding ordinary shares of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Ordinary Shares”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of the members of the Supervisory Board (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”), except that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following acquisitions do not constitute a Change in Control Event: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any security exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for ordinary shares or voting securities of the Company, unless the Person exercising, converting or exchanging such security acquired such security directly from the Company or an underwriter or agent of the Company), (B) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (C) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a Business Combination (as defined below) that complies with clauses (x) and (y) of subsection (ii) of this definition; or

(ii)    the consummation of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or share exchange involving the Company or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”), unless, immediately after such Business Combination, each of the following two conditions is satisfied: (x) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Ordinary Shares and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately before such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding ordinary shares and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of the members of the Supervisory Board or the members of the Board of Directors, as the case may be, of the resulting or acquiring corporation in such Business Combination (which includes, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) (such resulting or acquiring corporation is referred to as the “Acquiring Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Outstanding Company Ordinary Shares and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately before such Business Combination and (y) no Person (excluding the Acquiring Corporation or any employee benefit plan or related trust maintained or

6

sponsored by the Company or by the Acquiring Corporation) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 30% or more of the then-outstanding ordinary shares of the Acquiring Corporation, or of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the members of the Supervisory Board or the members of the Board of Directors, as the case may be, (except to the extent that such ownership existed before the Business Combination).

(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means any (i) willful failure by the Participant to perform his material responsibilities to the Company, which failure is not cured within 30 days of written notice to the Participant from the Company, or (ii) willful misconduct by the Participant that affects the business reputation of the Company. The Participant is considered to have been discharged for “Cause” if the Company determines, within 30 days after the Participant’s termination, that discharge for Cause was warranted.

(d)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means (A) any significant diminution in the Participant’s duties, authority or responsibilities from and after the Change in Control Event, (B) any material reduction in base compensation payable to the Participant from and after the Change in Control Event, or (C) the relocation of the place of business at which the Participant is principally located to a location that is greater than 50 miles from the current site without the Participant’s consent. However, no such event or condition constitutes Good Reason unless (x) the Participant gives the Company a written notice of termination for Good Reason not more than 90 days after the initial existence of the condition, (y) the grounds for termination (if susceptible to correction) are not corrected by the Company within 30 days of its receipt of such notice and (z) Participant’s termination of employment occurs within six months after the Company’s receipt of such notice.

13.    Section 409A.

(a)    This award is intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A and shall be construed consistently therewith. Subject to Sections 10(f) and 11(d) of the Plan, the Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend the Plan or this Agreement to prevent this award from becoming subject to the requirements of Section 409A. However, the Company makes no representations or warranties and has no liability to the Participant or to any other person if any of the provisions of or payments under this award are determined to constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A but do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A.

(b)    If the Units are considered to be “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, and the Participant is considered a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not deliver to the Participant any Shares required to be delivered upon vesting of Units that occurs upon a termination of employment until the earlier of (i) the six-month and one-day anniversary of the Participant’s termination of employment and (ii) the Participant’s death. In addition, solely to the extent that the Units are considered to be “nonqualified deferred compensation” and solely to the extent that another agreement between the Participant and the Company provides for vesting of the Units and delivery of the Shares upon a “change in control,” such event must constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i) in order for the Shares to be delivered.

(c)    For purposes of Sections 12(a) and 13(b) of this Agreement, “termination of employment” and similar terms mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. The determination of whether and when Participant’s separation from service from the Company has

7

occurred shall be made in a manner consistent with, and based on the presumptions set forth in, Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). Solely for purposes of this Section 13(c), “Company” includes all persons with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Section 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code.

14.    Language. If the Participant receives this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English, the English version controls.

15.    Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Participant consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

16.    Addendum. The Units and the Shares acquired under the Plan are subject to any country-specific terms and conditions set forth in any addendum to this Agreement or the Plan, and in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any such addendum, the addendum governs. If the Participant relocates his or her residence to one of the countries included in any such addendum, the terms and conditions of such applicable addendum apply to the Participant to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. Each such addendum, if any, constitutes part of this Agreement.

Description of the Business

Description of the Business

Cimpress is a strategically focused group of more than a dozen businesses that specialize in mass customization, via which we deliver large volumes of individually small-sized customized orders for a broad spectrum of print, signage, photo merchandise, invitations and announcements, writing instruments, packaging, apparel and other categories. We invest in and build customer-focused, entrepreneurial mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized, autonomous manner. Mass customization is a core element of the business model of each Cimpress business. We drive competitive advantage across Cimpress through a select few shared strategic capabilities that have the greatest potential to create Cimpress-wide value. We limit all other central activities to only those which absolutely must be performed centrally.

Irish Merger

On December 3, 2019, Cimpress moved its place of incorporation from the Netherlands to Ireland through a cross-border merger in which Cimpress N.V., a Dutch public limited company, merged with and into Cimpress plc, an Irish public limited company, with Cimpress plc surviving the Irish Merger. As a result of the Irish Merger, all of Cimpress N.V.'s outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for newly issued ordinary shares, nominal value of €0.01 per share, of Cimpress plc, and Cimpress plc assumed all of Cimpress N.V.'s existing rights and obligations.

In conjunction with the Irish Merger, 25,000 Cimpress plc deferred ordinary shares were issued to meet the Irish statutory minimum capital requirements of an Irish public limited company. The deferred ordinary shares remain outstanding following the completion of the Irish Merger and will continue to be outstanding until redeemed or surrendered. These deferred ordinary shares (i) do not have any voting rights; (ii) do not entitle the holders thereof to any dividends or other distributions of Cimpress plc; and (iii) do not entitle the holders thereof to participate in the surplus assets of Cimpress plc on a winding-up beyond, in total, the nominal value of such deferred ordinary shares held. Accordingly, these deferred ordinary shares do not dilute the economic ownership of Cimpress plc shareholders.

The Irish Merger was accounted for as a merger between entities under common control. The historical financial statements of Cimpress N.V. for periods prior to the Irish Merger are considered to be the historical financial statements of Cimpress plc. The Irish Merger has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on how Cimpress conducts its day-to-day operations, its financial position, consolidated effective tax rate, results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cimpress plc, 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 cannot exercise significant influence, and the related equity securities do not have a readily determinable fair value, are accounted for using the cost method and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Given the current and expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business we evaluated our liquidity position as of the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Based on this evaluation, management believes, despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our business, that our financial position, net cash provided by operations combined with our cash and cash equivalents, borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility, and the April 2020 temporary maintenance covenant suspension and capital raise as described in Note 10, will be sufficient to fund our current obligations, capital spending, debt service requirements and working capital requirements over at least the next twelve months.  

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, 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.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of August 11, 2020, the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

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 $86 and $87 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

For bank accounts that are overdrawn at the end of a reporting period, including any net negative balance in our notional cash pool, we reclassify these overdrafts to short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets. Book overdrafts that result from outstanding checks in excess of our bank balance are reclassified to other current liabilities. As of June 30, 2020, we reclassified $3,768 to short-term debt within our consolidated balance sheets and presented the overdraw within financing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. We did not have a bank overdraw in the prior period. As of June 30, 2020, we did not record a book overdraft, however as of June 30, 2019, we reclassified a book overdraft of $2,144 to other current liabilities.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes amounts due from customers. 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 no longer reasonably assured.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of raw materials and are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the 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 any of the years presented 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, which is generally over a three year period. 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $40,753, $35,068 and $31,332, respectively, resulting in accumulated amortization of $180,993 and $136,721 at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

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 using the income approach to value the trade names, customer relationships and customer network and a replacement cost approach to value developed technology and our print network. 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. We 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. 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 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 finite 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. We did not recognize any impairment or abandonment charges for acquired intangible assets in any of the periods presented.

Business Combinations

We recognize the assets acquired 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. Assets acquired 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.

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 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 a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs associated with the issuance of debt instruments are capitalized and amortized over the term of the respective financing arrangement on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of the related debt instrument. We evaluate all changes to our debt arrangements, to determine whether the changes represent a modification or extinguishment to the old debt arrangement. If a debt instrument is deemed to be modified, we capitalize all new lenders fees and expense all third-party fees. If we determine that an extinguishment of one of our debt instruments has occurred, the unamortized financing fees associated with the extinguished instrument are expensed. For the revolving loans associated with our senior secured credit facility, all lender and third-party fees are capitalized, and in the event the amendment reduces the committed capacity under the revolving loans, we expense a portion of any unamortized fees on a pro-rata basis in proportion to the decrease in the committed capacity.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We record all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. We apply hedge accounting to arrangements that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting treatment, which includes cash flow and net investment hedges. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively if the hedging relationship ceases to be effective or the hedging or hedged items cease to exist as a result of maturity, sale, termination or cancellation.

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 which could include interest rate swap contracts and cross-currency swap contracts. In a cash flow hedging relationship, the effective and ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of the hedging derivative is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until the forecasted transaction is recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, we present the settlement amount of these contracts within cash from investing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows, if the hedged item continues after contract settlement.

Derivatives designated and qualifying as hedges of currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation are considered net investment hedges which could include cross-currency swap and currency forward contracts. In hedging the currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective and ineffective portion of gains and losses on the hedging instruments is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as part of currency translation adjustment. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until we reduce our investment in the hedged foreign operation through a sale or substantial liquidation.

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. When hedge accounting is not applied, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded directly in earnings as a component of other (expense) income, 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.

Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interests held by third parties in consolidated subsidiaries are considered mandatorily redeemable when they are subject to an unconditional obligation to be redeemed by both parties. The redeemable noncontrolling interest must be required to be repurchased on a specified date or on the occurrence of a specified event that is certain to occur and are to be redeemed via the transfer of assets. Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented as liability-based financial instruments and are re-measured on a recurring basis to the expected redemption value.

Shareholders’ (Deficit) Equity

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) 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 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 as consideration for some of our acquisition transactions. Upon issuance of treasury shares we determine the cost using the average cost method.

Warrants

During the fourth quarter of 2020, we issued warrants in conjunction with the issuance of second lien debt. The warrants are legally detachable from the debt and settleable only in our shares. We account for the warrants in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires us to bifurcate and separately account for the detachable warrant as a separate equity instrument. The value assigned to the warrants was determined based on a relative fair value allocation between the warrants and related debt. The fair value of the warrants was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation and applying a discount for the lack of marketability for the warrants. We present the allocated value for the warrants within additional paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 10 for additional details related to the refinancing.

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipment of customized manufactured products. To a much lesser extent (and only in our Vistaprint business) we provide digital services, website design and hosting, and email marketing services, as well as a small percentage from order referral fees and other third-party offerings. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. Shipping revenues are recognized when control of the related products is transferred to the customer.

Under the terms of most of our arrangements with our customers we provide satisfaction guarantees, which give our customers an option for a refund or reprint over a specified period of time if the customer is not fully satisfied. As such, we record a reserve for estimated sales returns and allowances as a reduction of revenue, based on historical experience or the specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve. Actual sales returns have historically not been significant.

We have elected to recognize shipping and handling activities that occur after transfer of control of the products as fulfillment activities and not as a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, we recognize revenue

for our single performance obligation upon the transfer of control of the fulfilled orders, which generally occurs upon delivery to the shipping carrier. If revenue is recognized prior to completion of the shipping and handling activities, we accrue the costs of those activities. We do have some arrangements whereby the transfer of control, and thus revenue recognition, occurs upon delivery to the customer. If multiple products are ordered together, each product is considered a separate performance obligation, and the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of each performance obligation. We generally determine the standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to our customers.

Our products are customized for each individual customer with no alternative use except to be delivered to that specific customer; however, we do not have an enforceable right to payment prior to delivering the items to the customer based on the terms and conditions of our arrangements with customers and therefore we recognize revenue at a point in time.

We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of our satisfaction of the related performance obligation. The satisfaction of performance obligations generally occurs shortly after cash payment and we expect to recognize our deferred revenue balance as revenue within three months subsequent to June 30, 2020.

We periodically provide marketing materials and promotional offers to new customers and existing customers that are intended to improve customer retention. These incentive offers are generally available to all customers and, therefore, do not represent a performance obligation as customers are not required to enter into a contractual commitment to receive the offer. These discounts are recognized as a reduction to the transaction price when used by the customer. Costs related to free products are included within cost of revenue and sample products are included within marketing and selling expense.

We have elected to expense incremental direct costs as incurred, which primarily includes sales commissions, since our contract periods generally are less than one year and the related performance obligations are satisfied within a short period of time. Additional revenue disaggregation disclosure requirements resulting from the adoption of ASC 606 are included in Note 16.

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 a facility 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 presented as a separate financial statement line within our consolidated statement of operations.

For jurisdictions in which there are statutorily required minimum benefits for involuntary terminations, or severance benefits documented in an employee manual or labor contract, we evaluate these benefits under ASC 712 as ongoing benefit arrangements. We recognize the liability for these arrangements when it is probable that the employee would be entitled to the benefits and the amounts can be reasonably estimated.

Advertising Expense

Our advertising costs are primarily expensed as incurred and included in marketing and selling expense. Advertising expense for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $302,449, $427,673, and $432,546, 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $49,201, $40,976, and $41,451, 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 calculate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current tax expense and deferred tax expense based on 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. 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 as 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 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 consolidated statements of operations.

Other Income (Expense), Net

The following table summarizes the components of other income (expense), net:

	Year Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2018
Gains on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (1)	$	20,564	$	23,494	$	(2,687	)
Currency-related gains (losses), net (2)	2,309		2,506		(19,500		)
Other gains	1		476		1,155
Total other income (expense), net	$	22,874	$	26,476	$	(21,032	)

_____________________

(1) Primarily relates to both realized and unrealized gains on derivative currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments, as well as certain interest rate swap contracts that have been de-designated from hedge accounting due to their ineffectiveness.

(2) We have significant non-functional currency intercompany financing relationships that we may change at times and are subject to currency exchange rate volatility. The currency-related gains (losses), net for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are primarily driven by this intercompany activity. In addition, we have certain cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges, which hedge the remeasurement of certain intercompany loans, both presented in the same component above. The unrealized gain related to cross-currency swaps was $929 for the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to an unrealized loss of $3,484 for the year ended June 30, 2019, and an unrealized gain of $2,722 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Cimpress plc

Basic net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc is computed by dividing net income attributable to Cimpress plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including share options, restricted share units (“RSUs”), restricted share awards ("RSAs"), warrants, and performance share units ("PSUs"), 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,
	2020	2019	2018
Weighted average shares outstanding, basic	27,180,744	30,786,349	30,948,081
Weighted average shares issuable upon exercise/vesting of outstanding share options/PSUs/RSUs/RSAs/warrants (1)	592,542	876,356	1,272,320
Shares used in computing diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	27,773,286	31,662,705	32,220,401
Weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	1,325	—	2,291

_____________________

(1) On May 1, 2020, we entered into a financing arrangement with Apollo Global Management, Inc., which included 7-year warrants with a strike price of $60 that have a potentially dilutive impact on our weighted average shares outstanding. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average dilutive effect of the warrants was 73,719 shares. Refer to Note 10 for additional details about the arrangement.

Compensation Expense

Share-based Compensation

Compensation expense for all share-based awards is measured at fair value on the date of grant and recognized over the requisite service period. We recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur. 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. The fair value of RSUs and RSAs is determined based on 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. For awards that are ultimately settleable in cash, we treat them as liability awards and mark the award to market each reporting period recognizing any gain or loss in our statements of operations. For awards with a performance condition vesting feature, compensation cost is recorded if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

We have issued performance share units, or PSUs, which are estimated at fair value on the date of grant, which is fixed throughout the vesting period. The fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. As the PSUs include both a service and market condition the related expense is recognized using the accelerated expense attribution method over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. For PSUs that meet the service vesting condition, the expense recognized over the requisite service period will not be reversed if the market condition is not achieved.

In addition to a service vesting and market condition (based on the three year moving average of the Cimpress share price) contained in our standard performance share units, we also issue awards that contain financial performance conditions. These awards with a discretionary performance condition are subject to mark-to-market accounting throughout the performance vesting period. The compensation expense for these awards is estimated at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and compensation costs are recorded only if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We are required to reassess the probability each reporting period. If we determine the awards are not probable at some point during the performance vesting period we would reverse any expense recognized to date.

Total share-based compensation expense was $34,874, $21,716 and $50,466 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

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 do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020 and 2019. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

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.

Lease Accounting

Lease accounting - adoption of ASC 842

On July 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases, using a modified retrospective transition approach. Under the modified retrospective approach, we recognized any cumulative impacts as of the adoption date within retained earnings on our consolidated balance sheet. We did not adjust the prior comparable period. Additionally, as part of our transition, we elected several practical expedients that streamlined the transition to the new guidance whereby we did not reassess the following:

• whether a lease under the prior standard continues to meet the definition of a lease under the new standard;

• whether the application of the new standard would have an impact on the classification of our existing leases, with the exception of our build-to-suit leases; and

• the existence of any initial direct costs associated with our leases.

We also elected the practical expedient to account for our lease components as a single lease component rather than separating them into lease and nonlease components, which would have resulted in recognizing only the lease components in the measurement of our lease assets and liabilities. This expedient was applied to all underlying classes of assets we lease.

We elected the short-term lease exception policy, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases, which are defined as leases with a term of twelve months or less. Short-term leases are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our consolidated statement of operations. We determine the lease term by including the exercise of renewal options that are considered reasonably certain at lease inception.

The following table summarizes the cumulative effect of adopting the new lease standard as of the adoption date of July 1, 2019:

Consolidated Balance Sheet	As reported at June 30, 2019		ASC 842 adjustments			Adjusted balance at July 1, 2019
Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	78,065	$	(59	)	$	78,006
Property, plant and equipment, net	490,755		(121,254		)	369,501
Operating lease assets, net	—		169,668			169,668
Deferred tax assets	59,906		(817		)	59,089
Liabilities and shareholders' equity
Operating lease liabilities, current	$	—	$	37,342		$	37,342
Other current liabilities	27,881		(12,569		)	15,312
Lease financing obligation	112,096		(112,096		)	—
Operating lease liabilities, non-current	—		139,041			139,041
Other liabilities	53,716		(7,169		)	46,547
Retained earnings	537,422		2,989			540,411

The new standard impacted the classification of our build-to-suit leases for our Waltham, Massachusetts and Dallas, Texas building leases, which resulted in a change of their classification to operating leases. On July 1, 2019, we de-recognized the existing lease assets included within property, plant and equipment, net of $121,254, the related lease financing obligations of $124,665, and associated deferred rent of $418. This change resulted in an $817 decrease to deferred tax assets and a net increase to retained earnings of $2,989. In addition, on July 1, 2019, we recognized operating lease assets of $169,668 and operating lease liabilities of $176,383, inclusive of our Waltham, Massachusetts lease which commenced prior to the transition date. The difference between the operating lease assets and liabilities resulted from the reclassification of deferred rent and tenant allowance balances presented in other financial statement lines of the consolidated balance sheet, which are now included in the operating lease assets.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the change in lease classification for our build-to-suit leases resulted in a reduction to operating income within our consolidated statement of operations of $7,440, with a corresponding decrease to interest expense, net. In our consolidated statement of cash flows, the change in classification resulted in a decrease to cash from operating activities and increase to cash from financing activities of $4,117 during the year ended June 30, 2020. Other than the impact from our build-to-suit leases, the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows. Refer to Note 17 for additional lease disclosure.

Lease accounting policy

We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception. We consider an arrangement to be a lease if it conveys the right to control an identifiable asset for a period of time. 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 lease term, excluding renewal periods.

Lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and liabilities for operating and finance leases are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at lease commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Our incremental borrowing rate approximates the interest rate on a collateralized basis for the economic environments where our leased assets are located, and is established by considering the credit spread associated with our existing debt arrangements, as well as observed market rates for instruments with a similar term to that of the lease payments. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement, as well as any initial direct costs incurred. Lease incentives received from the lessor are recognized as a reduction to the ROU asset.

Our initial determination of the lease term is based on the facts and circumstances that exist at lease commencement. The lease term may include the effect of options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised. We consider these options reasonably certain to be exercised based on our assessment of economic incentives, including the fair market rent for equivalent properties under similar terms and conditions, costs of relocating, availability of comparable replacement assets, and any related disruption to operations that would be experienced by not renewing the lease.

Finance leases are accounted for as an acquisition of an asset and incurrence of an obligation. Assets held under finance 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 finance lease obligation is recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease.

Operating leases are included in operating lease assets and current and non-current operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant, and equipment, net, and the related liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Variable lease payments are excluded from the operating lease assets and liabilities and are recognized as expense in the period in which the obligation is incurred. Variable lease payments primarily include index-based rent escalation associated with some of our real estate leases, as well as property taxes and common area

maintenance payments for most real estate leases, which are determined based on the costs incurred by the lessor. We also make variable lease payments for certain print equipment leases that are determined based on production volumes.

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. 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 finance 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.

We have subleased a small amount of our equipment and real estate lease portfolio to third parties, making us the lessor. Most of these subleases meet the criteria for operating lease classification and the related sublease income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term within the consolidated statement of operations. To a lesser extent, we have leases in which we are the lessees, classify the leases as finance leases and have subleased the asset under similar terms, resulting in their classification as direct financing leases. For direct financing leases, we recognize a sublease receivable within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Standards Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15 "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)" (ASU 2018-15), which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The standard would be effective on July 1, 2020 and we early adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019. The standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815)," (ASU 2017-12), which better aligns a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. We adopted the amendment on its effective date of July 1, 2019. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach, and we recognized the cumulative effect of the change within shareholders' equity as of the date of adoption. Upon transitioning to the new standard on July 1, 2019, we reversed the cumulative effect of expense previously recognized in earnings for the ineffective portion of our interest rate swap contracts, which resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive loss within our consolidated balance sheet of $153, net of tax. We will prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with our effective and designated cash flow hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. These changes did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" (ASU 2016-02), which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The standard also retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. We adopted the standard on its effective date of July 1, 2019. Refer to the information above for additional details of the adoption.

Issued Accounting Standards to be Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" (ASU 2019-12), which modifies certain aspects of income tax accounting. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)" (ASU 2016-13), which introduces a new accounting model for recognizing credit losses on certain financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

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, 2020
	Total			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)			Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

During the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, 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 counterparties' 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, 2020, 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.

As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values. As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the carrying value of our debt, excluding debt issuance costs and debt premiums and discounts, was $1,482,177 and $1,035,585, respectively, and the fair value was $1,450,719 and $1,045,334, respectively. Our debt at June 30, 2020 includes variable-rate debt instruments indexed to LIBOR that resets periodically, as well as fixed-rate debt instruments. 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.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure

Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swap contracts, cross-currency swap contracts, and currency forward and option contracts, to manage interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Derivatives are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge or net investment hedge, then the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. On July 1, 2019, we adopted the new hedge accounting standard, in which we no longer recognize the ineffective portion of an effective hedge within earnings, rather any ineffectiveness associated with any effective and designated hedge is recognized within accumulated other comprehensive loss. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

The change in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges is recognized directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net.

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

We enter into interest rate swap contracts to manage variability in the amount of our known or expected cash payments related to a portion of our debt. Our objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We designate our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. 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 contract agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Realized gains or losses from interest rate swaps are recorded in earnings as a component of interest expense, net.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to interest rate swap contracts will be reclassified to interest expense, net as interest payments are accrued or made on our variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2020, we estimate that $10,364 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense during the twelve months ending June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2020, we had ten outstanding interest rate swap contracts indexed to USD LIBOR, of which seven of these instruments were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2025. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three contracts from hedge accounting due to an increased floor to our LIBOR borrowing costs related to the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured credit facility. As a result of this change in the underlying debt being hedged, these three forward starting hedges were no longer highly effective. These de-designated hedges have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2026.

Interest rate swap contracts outstanding:	Notional Amounts
Contracts accruing interest as of June 30, 2020	$	500,000
Contracts with a future start date	50,000
Total	$	550,000

Hedges of Currency Risk

Cross-Currency Swap Contracts

From time to time, we execute cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges or net investment hedges. Cross-currency swaps involve an initial receipt of the notional amount in the hedge currency in exchange for our reporting currency based on a contracted exchange rate. Subsequently, we receive fixed rate payments in our reporting currency in exchange for fixed rate payments in the hedged currency over the life of the contract. At maturity, the final exchange involves the receipt of our reporting currency in exchange for the notional amount in the hedged currency.

Cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges are executed to mitigate our currency exposure to the interest receipts as well as the principal remeasurement and repayment associated with certain intercompany loans denominated in a currency other than our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we terminated one of our cross-currency swaps, resulting in cash proceeds of $9,177 which were recognized within cash provided by operating activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. As of June 30, 2020, we had two outstanding cross-currency swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges with a total notional amount of $120,874, both maturing during June 2024. We entered into the two cross-currency swap

contracts to hedge the risk of changes in one Euro-denominated intercompany loan entered into with one of our consolidated subsidiaries that has the Euro as its functional currency.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified to other income (expense), net as interest payments are accrued or paid and upon remeasuring the intercompany loan. As of June 30, 2020, we estimate that $2,994 of income will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense, net during the twelve months ending June 30, 2021.

Other Currency Contracts

We execute currency forward and option contracts in order to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in various currencies against our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar.

During the year ended June 30, 2020, we terminated nine forward contracts designated as net investment hedges, resulting in cash proceeds of $29,791 which continues to be recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The cash proceeds were recognized as cash provided by investing activities within our consolidated statement of cash flow. As of June 30, 2020, we had five currency forward contracts designated as net investment hedges with a total notional amount of $149,604, maturing during various dates through April 2023. We entered into these contracts to hedge the risk of changes in the U.S. dollar equivalent value of a portion of our net investment in two consolidated subsidiaries that have the Euro as their functional currency. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss are recognized as a component of our cumulative translation adjustment.

We have elected to not apply hedge accounting for all other currency forward and option contracts. During the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we have experienced 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 and option contracts. We expect this volatility to continue in future periods for contracts for which we do not apply hedge accounting. Additionally, since our hedging objectives may be targeted at non-GAAP financial metrics that exclude non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, we may experience increased, not decreased, volatility in our GAAP results as a result of our currency hedging program.

As of June 30, 2020, we had the following outstanding currency derivative contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar value of forecasted transactions or balances denominated in Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Danish Krone, Euro, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Norwegian Krone, Philippine Peso and Swedish Krona:

(1) Upon our adoption of the new hedge accounting standard on July 1, 2019, we prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with effective and designated hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three of our interest rate swaps and therefore no longer apply hedge accounting. Subsequent to their de-designation, we recognize any fair value adjustments to those instruments in other income (expense), net, as included in the table above.

Fiscal 2019 Acquisitions

Acquisition of Build A Sign LLC

On October 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Build A Sign LLC ("BuildASign"), a vertically integrated U.S. web-to-print canvas wall décor and signage company. We acquired approximately 99% of the outstanding equity interests of BuildASign for a purchase price of $275,079 in cash, which includes a post-closing adjustment paid during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and was based on BuildASign's cash, debt and working capital position as of the acquisition date.

The acquisition supports our strategy of investing in and building customer-focused, entrepreneurial, mass customization businesses for the long term, which we manage in a decentralized and autonomous manner. BuildASign brings strong talent, a customer-centric culture, low-cost production operations and strong e-commerce capabilities that work seamlessly together to serve customers with market-leading prices, fast delivery and great customer service.

Noncontrolling Interest

At the closing, Build A Sign Management Pool, LLC (the "Management Pool"), one of the sellers, retained approximately 1% of the outstanding equity interests of BuildASign for the benefit of certain BuildASign employees who hold equity interests in the Management Pool. We entered into a put and call option agreement with respect to the retained BuildASign equity interests, which provides the holders of the Management Pool the right to sell to us all or any portion of their shares, beginning with our fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 and for each fiscal year thereafter. We have the right to buy all (but not less than all) of the retained equity interest of any holder that is no longer an active employee of the company, beginning with our fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. The put and call purchase price is based on BuildASign's revenue growth and EBITDA for the fiscal year in which the option is exercised. Due to the presence of the put arrangement, the noncontrolling interest is presented as redeemable

noncontrolling interest as redemption is not solely within our control. We initially recognized the noncontrolling interest at fair value of $3,356 and will adjust the balance for the pro rata impact of the BuildASign earnings or loss, as well as adjustments to increase the balance to the redemption value, if necessary.

The excess purchase price over the fair value of BuildASign's net assets was recorded as goodwill, which is primarily attributable to the value of its workforce, its manufacturing and marketing processes and know-how, as well as synergies which include leveraging Cimpress' scale-based sourcing channels. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and has been attributed to the All Other Businesses reportable segment.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was as follows:

	Amount			Weighted Average Useful Life in Years
Tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	4,093		n/a
Accounts receivable, net	510			n/a
Inventory	1,107			n/a

Goodwill	186,088			n/a
Total purchase price	$	275,079

_________________

(1) In connection with the BuildASign acquisition, we recorded an indemnification asset of $5,433, which represented the seller's obligation under the merger agreement to indemnify us for a portion of their potential contingent liabilities related to certain tax matters. We also recognized a contingent liability of $8,925, which represented our estimate based on guidance within ASC 450 - "Contingencies," as of the acquisition date.

BuildASign Pro Forma Financial Information

BuildASign 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 BuildASign acquisition had occurred on July 1, 2017.

We utilized proceeds from our credit facility in order to finance the acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, we incurred $1,140 in general and administrative expenses during the year ended June 30, 2019, primarily related to legal, financial, and other professional services.

Fiscal 2018 Divestiture    

Divestiture of Albumprinter

On August 31, 2017 we sold our Albumprinter business, including FotoKnudsen AS, for a total of €78,382 ($93,071 based on the exchange rate as of the date of sale) in cash, net of transaction costs and cash divested (after $11,874 in pre-closing dividends). As a result of the sale, we recognized a gain of $47,545, net of transaction costs, within our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2018. In connection with the divestiture, we entered into an agreement with Albumprinter under which Albumprinter will continue to fulfill photo book orders for our Vistaprint business. Additionally, we agreed to provide Albumprinter with certain transitional support services for a period of up to one year from the date of the sale.

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized goodwill related to an immaterial acquisition within our PrintBrothers reportable segment. In fiscal year 2019 we acquired the BuildASign and VIDA businesses as well as an immaterial supplier of one of our businesses within The Print Group reportable segment.

(2) During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we identified triggering events in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in the recognition of impairment to goodwill, please refer below for further detail. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we divested our VIDA business and recognized a loss of $1,520, in addition to the goodwill impairment recognized. In fiscal year 2019 we recorded an impairment charge for the goodwill of our Printi reporting unit. Refer below for additional details.

(3) Related to goodwill held by subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

(4) Due to changes in the composition of our reportable segments during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we reclassified the goodwill associated with our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions reporting unit from All Other Businesses to our Vistaprint reportable segment. Refer to Note 16 for additional details on the changes in our reportable segments.

Impairment Review

Fiscal 2020 Annual Impairment Test

Our goodwill accounting policy establishes an annual goodwill impairment test date of May 31. As described below, we identified triggering events during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 that required an interim period impairment analysis for all of our reporting units in response to disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. For our annual impairment assessment, we performed a qualitative test for all eight reporting units with goodwill, which focused on comparing key performance indicators between the pandemic-related financial models used in our quantitative test during the third quarter triggering event assessment, to the actual performance through our annual test date. For each of our reporting units, we are experiencing a better than previously expected recovery when comparing our revenue and EBITDA results for April and May 2020. In addition, we considered our current forecasts for the beginning of fiscal 2021, which again anticipates a better recovery as compared to the third quarter financial models that were used for our third quarter quantitative tests. Lastly, we also considered macroeconomic factors, as well as the headroom between our estimated fair value and carrying value from our third quarter

impairment analysis. We continue to believe that the impacts of the pandemic are temporary, so the better than expected results, combined with an improved near-term outlook were key inputs into our annual impairment analysis, in which we concluded that no impairment exists.

Our goodwill analysis requires significant judgment, including the identification of reporting units and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. While we believe our assumptions are reasonable, actual results could differ from our projections. There have been no indications of impairment that would require analysis for any of our other reporting units as of June 30, 2020.

COVID-19 Triggering Event

During March 2020, all of our businesses experienced varying levels of decline in revenue due to the disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we expect the impacts to be temporary, the negative effects of the pandemic on revenue and profitability triggered an assessment of goodwill, as we expected some of our businesses to achieve materially lower financial results than previously expected. A triggering event existed for all ten reporting units with goodwill, which required us to perform an impairment test in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

As required, prior to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test during the third quarter, we first evaluated the recoverability of long-lived assets as the change in expected long-term cash flows is indicative of a potential impairment. We performed the recoverability test using undiscounted cash flows for the asset groups of all of our reporting units and concluded that no impairment of long-lived assets existed.

As of our March 31, 2020 test date, seven of our ten reporting units had a significant level of headroom between the estimated fair value and carrying value of the reporting units from our most recent test, and significant headroom remained after considering the deterioration in cash flow due to COVID-19, resulting in no indication of impairment during the third quarter of fiscal 2020. We identified triggering events that extended beyond the near-term impacts of the pandemic for three of our reporting units, which resulted in reductions to the long-term profitability outlooks for our Exaprint, National Pen and VIDA reporting units. The triggering events in these specific reporting units were due to a combination of the near-term disruptions outlined above, along with reductions to the long-term profitability expected from each business, as compared to prior expectations. In light of our decision to exit the VIDA business, which was completed on April 10, 2020, the negotiated sale price was the primary input in our goodwill analysis.

Our March 31, 2020 goodwill impairment test resulted in impairment charges to our Exaprint reporting unit, included within The Print Group reportable segment, the National Pen reporting unit, and our VIDA reporting unit, included within our All Other Business reportable segment. In order to execute the quantitative goodwill impairment test, we compared the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. We used the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. We selected this method as being the most meaningful in preparing our goodwill assessment as we believe the income approach most appropriately measures our income-producing assets. We considered using the market approach but concluded it was not appropriate in valuing these particular reporting units given the lack of relevant market comparisons available. The cash flow projections in the fair value analysis are considered Level 3 inputs, and consist of management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration historical results, as well as industry and market conditions. The discount rate used in the fair value analysis is based on a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), which represents the average rate a business must pay its providers of debt and equity, plus a risk premium. The respective WACC percentages used for each reporting unit within our goodwill impairment test were derived from a group of comparable companies for each respective reporting unit and adjusted for the risk premium associated with each reporting unit.

Based on the goodwill impairment test performed, we recognized the following impairment charges during the third quarter of fiscal 2020:

• A partial impairment of the goodwill of our Exaprint reporting unit of $40,391, using a WACC of 14.5%, resulting in $23,767 of goodwill that remains after the impairment as of June 30, 2020

• A full impairment of the goodwill of our National Pen reporting unit of $34,434, using a WACC of 13.0%

• A full impairment of the goodwill of our VIDA reporting unit of $26,017, based upon our negotiated sale price

Fiscal 2019

During fiscal 2019, we identified triggering events associated with our Printi reporting unit, which indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is below the carrying amount. Printi is the leader in Brazil's online printing industry and has grown quickly since its founding. That said, investment in capacity and other fixed costs was far too high in fiscal year 2019 relative to the scale of the business and the mid-term outlook. As a result, we implemented restructuring activities and aligned future operating plans during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 that negatively impacted our cash flow forecasts for this business. Based upon these changes to the business, we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unity was below the carrying amount. We concluded that the fair value of the reporting unit indicated a full impairment of the Printi goodwill, resulting in an impairment charge of $7,503.

___________________

(1) The increase in income and indirect taxes is primarily due to government incentive programs in certain European jurisdictions, which has allowed for the deferral of payment of indirect taxes until fiscal 2021.

(2) The decline in advertising, production and shipping costs is due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions, which drove lower demand and a reduction in costs during the fourth quarter of the year ended June 30, 2020.

(3) The increase in interest payable is due to the additional offering of $200,000 of Senior Unsecured Notes in the third quarter and $300,000 in Second Lien Notes issued to Apollo Global Management, Inc. during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 10 for further detail.

Other current liabilities included the following:

Current portion of finance lease obligations	$	8,055	$	10,668
Current portion of lease financing obligation (1)	—		12,569
Short-term derivative liabilities	3,521		1,628
Other	1,692		3,016
Total other current liabilities	$	13,268	$	27,881

___________________

(1) Due to our adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA, and Dallas, TX leases, which were previously classified as build-to-suit, are now classified as operating leases and therefore the lease financing obligation has been de-recognized. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

Other liabilities included the following:

	June 30, 2020		June 30, 2019
Long-term finance lease obligations	$	18,617	$	16,036
Long-term derivative liabilities (1)	51,800		15,886
Other	17,770		21,794
Total other liabilities	$	88,187	$	53,716

___________________

(1) The increase in long-term derivative liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2020, is due to unrealized losses on our interest rate swaps resulting from a change in the macroeconomic interest rate environment during the year.

Our Debt

Our various debt arrangements described below contain customary representations, warranties and events of default. As of June 30, 2020, the pre-existing financial maintenance covenants under our senior secured credit facility covenants are suspended, and we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants under the credit agreement as amended, senior unsecured notes indenture, and second lien indenture.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On April 28, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement to suspend pre-existing maintenance covenants, including the total and senior secured leverage covenants and interest coverage ratio covenant, until the publication of our results for the quarter ending December 31, 2021, for which quarter the pre-amendment maintenance covenants will be reinstated. The covenant suspension period could end earlier at our election if we have total leverage equal to or lower than 4.75x annualized EBITDA for each of two consecutive quarters and are compliant with pre-amendment maintenance covenants.

During the suspension period, we are required to comply with new maintenance covenants requiring minimum liquidity (defined in the credit agreement as unrestricted cash plus unused revolver) of $50,000 and EBITDA above zero in each of the quarters ending June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The amendment increased pricing to LIBOR plus 3.25% during the covenant suspension period and to LIBOR plus 2.50% to 3.25% after the covenant suspension period, depending on our total leverage ratio, including a 0.75% floor for LIBOR borrowings. Additionally, as part of the amendment, the maturity date was changed from February 2025 to November 2024. The amendment to the senior secured credit agreement also reduced the credit facility from $1,551,419 to $1,000,000, made up of an $850,000 revolver and $150,000 term loan.

During the covenant suspension period, we have more restrictive limitations on certain activities and actions, including but not limited to:

• the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens,

• the consummation of certain investments, including acquisitions,

• the making of restricted payments, including the purchases of our ordinary shares and payment of dividends.

As of June 30, 2020, we have drawn commitments under the credit facility of $570,483 as follows:

• Revolving loans of $422,358 with a maturity date of November 15, 2024

• Term loans of $148,125 amortizing over the loan period, with a final maturity date of November 15, 2024

As of June 30, 2020, the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 5.4%, inclusive of interest rate swap rates. We are also required to pay a commitment fee on unused balances of 0.35% to 0.5%

depending on our total leverage ratio, and 0.5% during the covenant suspension period . We have pledged the assets and/or share capital of a number of our subsidiaries as collateral for our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2020.

Indenture and Second Lien Notes

On May 1, 2020, we issued second lien notes and warrants to raise $300,000 from funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (the "Apollo Funds") via a private placement. These notes and warrants were issued at a discount of $6,000, resulting in net proceeds of $294,000. We used the proceeds to pay down a portion of the term loans under our senior secured credit facility and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the financing and the above-described amendment.

The investment by the Apollo Funds is structured as 5-year second lien notes with a 12% coupon, of which up to 50% can be paid-in-kind at our option. We may prepay these notes in whole or in part after the first anniversary with a 3% premium, after the second anniversary with a 1% premium, and after the third anniversary with no premium with proceeds from certain debt financings. The Apollo Funds also received 7-year warrants to purchase 1,055,377 ordinary shares of Cimpress, representing approximately 3.875% of our outstanding diluted ordinary shares. Based on the terms of the agreement, the two instruments exist separately and should be treated as separate securities; therefore the warrants are considered to be detachable.

The warrants have an exercise price of $60 per share, representing an approximately 17% premium to the 10-day volume weighted average price of our shares as of April 28, 2020. The warrants are classified as equity as they are strictly redeemable in our own shares, and they may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

The warrants are accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires us to bifurcate and separately account for the detachable warrant as a separated instrument. The values were assigned to detachable warrants based on a relative fair allocation between the second lien notes and the warrants. The fair value used for the warrants in this allocation was calculated using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The inputs to the fair value analysis are considered Level 3 inputs, and consist of estimates of the expected volatility over the contract term of the warrants, taking into consideration the historical stock volatility, as well as industry and market conditions. Based upon the terms of the note and warrant agreement, the warrants were determined to be equity-based instruments.

The valuation of the notes and warrants resulted in a carrying value allocated to the warrants of $22,432, which, in addition to be being accounted for as an equity instrument recorded in additional paid in capital, will also be included as a discount to the second lien notes, in addition to the $6,000 discount at which they were issued. The full discount will be amortized over the life of the notes.

Indenture and Senior Unsecured Notes

On February 13, 2020, we completed an additional offering of $200,000 in aggregate principal of 7.0% notes under the senior notes indenture between Cimpress plc and U.S. Bank National Association (as successor trustee to MUFG Union Bank, N.A.) at a premium of 105.25%. These notes were issued in addition to the existing principal balance under the indenture of $400,000, and are collectively referred to as the 2026 Notes. All terms and covenants of the senior notes indenture remain unchanged. The net proceeds from this add-on offering were used to repay a portion of the indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured credit facility and related transaction fees and expenses.

The 2026 Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and mature on June 15, 2026. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year to the holders of record of the 2026 Notes at the close of business on June 1 and December 1, respectively, preceding such interest payment date.

The 2026 Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all our existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated debt. The Notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. Subject to certain exceptions, each of our existing and future subsidiaries that is a borrower under or guarantees our senior secured credit facilities also guarantees the 2026 Notes.

We have the right to redeem, at any time prior to June 15, 2021, some or all of the 2026 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed, plus a make-whole amount as set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, we have the right to redeem, at any time prior to June 15, 2021, up to 40% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2026 Notes at a redemption price equal to 107% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date, with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings by Cimpress. At any time on or after June 15, 2021, we may redeem some or all of the Notes at the redemption prices specified in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

Other Debt

Other debt consists primarily of term loans acquired through our various acquisitions or used to fund certain capital investments. As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we had $11,694 and $14,361, respectively, outstanding for those obligations that are payable through March 2025.

Debt Issuance Costs

During the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we capitalized debt issuance costs related to the refinancing of our senior secured credit facility, and issuance of additional senior unsecured notes, and issuance of the second lien notes of $23,208 and $1,800, respectively.

Amortization expense and the write-off of costs related to debt amendments and modifications are included in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we amortized $3,240, $2,367 and $1,821, respectively. As part of the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured credit facility, we also expensed $568 of third-party fees associated with the modification of the term loans and wrote-off $1,438 of unamortized fees associated with the revolving loans, due to the reduction in loan commitments. During the year ended June 30, 2018, we expensed $2,921 of unamortized costs related to the extinguishment of our senior unsecured notes, which was presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations as part of loss on early extinguishment of debt.

Unamortized debt issuance costs and debt premiums (discounts) were $48,587 and $12,018 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Employees’ Savings Plans

Defined contribution plans

We maintain certain government-mandated and defined contribution plans throughout the world. Our most significant defined contribution retirement plans are in the U.S. and comply with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. We offer eligible employees in the U.S. the opportunity to participate in one of these plans and match most employees' eligible contributions at various rates subject to service vesting as specified in each of the related plan documents. This matching program has been temporarily suspended as of March 2020, and will continue to be paused on a discretionary basis through at least December 31, 2020.

We expensed $10,710, $11,401 and $11,723, for our government-mandated and defined contribution plans in the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Defined benefit plan

We currently have a 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, 2020 and 2019, the plan had an unfunded net pension obligation of approximately $2,743, and $1,525, respectively, and plan assets which totaled approximately $3,403 and $2,849, respectively. For the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 we recognized expense totaling $399, $424 and $55, respectively, related to our Swiss plan.

Shareholders' Equity [Abstract]

Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit)

Treasury shares

On February 12, 2019, we announced that our Board authorized the repurchase of up to 5,500,000 of our ordinary shares, on the open market (including block trades), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we purchased 4,119,965 shares under this authorization for a cost of $521,168. The February Repurchase Program terminated on November 25, 2019 when we announced the new November Repurchase Program described immediately below.

On November 25, 2019, we announced that our Board had approved a new share repurchase program that replaced the February Repurchase Program described immediately above. Under this new program, we may repurchase up to 5,500,000 of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the open market (including block trades), through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self-tender offers. This repurchase program expires on May 22, 2021, and we may suspend or discontinue our share repurchases at any time. During the year ended June 30, 2020, we purchased 882,053 shares under this share repurchase program for a cost of $105,888.

On November 5, 2019, we repurchased 750,000 of our outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, from two private investment partnerships affiliated with Prescott General Partners LLC ("PGP") at a price of $135.00 per share, representing a discount of $1.05 to the closing price of our ordinary shares on November 5, 2019 (the "Transaction").

PGP remained our largest shareholder, beneficially owning 3,906,492 of our ordinary shares immediately following the Transaction. In addition, Scott J. Vassalluzzo, a Managing Member of PGP, serves as a member of our Board of Directors. In light of the foregoing, the disinterested members of our Audit Committee reviewed the Transaction under our related person transaction policy and considered, amount other things, Mr. Vassalluzzo's and PGP's interest in the Transaction, the approximated dollar value of the Transaction, that the shares were being repurchased at a discount to the closing price, and the purpose and the potential benefits to Cimpress of entering into the Transaction. Based on these considerations, the disinterested members of the Audit Committee concluded that the Transaction was in our best interest. The Transaction was effected pursuant to the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors and announced on February 12, 2019.

On April 28, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement, which suspended our financial maintenance covenants in addition to prohibiting us from repurchasing shares during the suspension period. Refer to Note 10 for additional information.

Warrants

In conjunction with our issuance of the second lien notes, as described in Note 10, we also issued 7-year warrants, to purchase 1,055,377 ordinary shares of Cimpress, representing approximately 3.875% of our outstanding diluted ordinary shares. The warrants are accounted for as equity, as they are redeemable only in our own shares, with an exercise price of $60 per share. The warrants may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

The carrying value was assigned to detachable warrants based on a relative fair allocation between the second lien notes and the warrants, as described in Note 10. The fair value used for the warrants in this allocation was calculated using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The valuation of the notes and warrants resulted in a carrying value allocated to the warrants of $22,432, which, in addition to be being accounted for as an equity instrument recorded in additional paid in capital, will also be included as a discount to the second lien notes.

Share-based awards

The 2016 Performance Equity Plan (the "2016 Plan") became effective upon shareholder approval on May 27, 2016 and allows us to grant PSUs, entitling the recipient to receive Cimpress ordinary shares based upon continued service to Cimpress and the achievement of objective, predetermined appreciation of Cimpress' three-year moving average share price. We may grant PSUs under the 2016 Plan to our employees, officers, non-employee directors, consultants, and advisors. Subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends and other similar events, we may make awards under the 2016 Plan for up to 6,000,000 of our ordinary shares.

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 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 allows us to grant share options to our non-employee directors 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.

An aggregate of 5,815,482 ordinary shares were available for future awards under all of our share-based award plans as of June 30, 2020. For PSUs under our 2016 Plan, we assumed that we would issue ordinary shares

equal to 250% of the outstanding PSUs, which is the maximum potential share issuance. Treasury shares have historically been used in fulfillment of our share-based awards.

Share options

We have previously granted 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 vested over 3 years for non-employee directors and over 4 years 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. 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.

We did not grant any share options in fiscal 2020. A summary of our share option activity and related information for the year ended June 30, 2020 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	1,431,914		$	50.27	0.9
Granted	—		—
Exercised	(1,321,376	)	49.85
Forfeited/expired	—		—
Outstanding at the end of the period	110,538		$	55.27	1.0	$	2,348,957
Exercisable at the end of the period	110,538		$	55.27	1.0	$	2,348,957

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, 2020. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $92,582, $12,498 and $46,853, respectively.

Performance share units - 2016 Performance Equity Plan

The PSU awards entitle the recipient to receive Cimpress ordinary shares between 0% and 250% of the number of units, based upon continued service to Cimpress and the achievement of a compounded annual growth rate target based on Cimpress' three-year moving average share price. Awards with a grant date prior to fiscal 2020 will be assessed annually in years 6 - 10 following the grant date and awards with a grant date in fiscal 2020 will be assessed annually in years 4 - 8 following the grant date. The fair value of the PSUs is based on a Monte Carlo simulation, and the resulting expense is recognized on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period.

During fiscal 2018, we issued supplemental performance share units ("supplemental PSUs") to certain members of management (excluding Robert Keane, our Chairman and CEO) that were incremental to our typical long-term incentive awards. The supplemental PSUs were subject to a three-year cumulative financial performance condition and as of June 30, 2020 the performance condition was not achieved. In fiscal 2018 we concluded that the achievement of the three-year cumulative performance condition was probable and recognized expense of $15,397, which we subsequently reversed in fiscal 2019 when we concluded that the achievement was no longer probable.

A summary of our PSU activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

	PSUs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at the beginning of the period	821,745		$	132.55
Granted	295,239		142.90
Vested and distributed	—		—
Forfeited	(82,787	)	152.71
Outstanding at the end of the period	1,034,197		$	133.89	$	78,951

The weighted average fair value of PSUs granted during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $142.90, $176.16, and $115.02, respectively. The total intrinsic value of PSUs outstanding at the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $78,951, $74,688 and $98,683, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the number of shares subject to PSUs included in the table above assumes the issuance of one share for each PSU, but based on actual performance that amount delivered can range from zero shares to a maximum of 2,585,493 shares.

Restricted share units

The fair value of an RSU award is equal to the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant and the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. RSUs generally vest over 4 years, however, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we replaced a portion of some employees' salaries with RSU awards that generally vest after 4.5 months. We granted 193,365 RSUs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. This program was put in place, as one of several measures taken to improve liquidity during the pandemic. As of July 1, 2020, we suspended the program but will consider providing future grants in lieu of cash compensation if necessary.

A summary of our RSU activity and related information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

	RSUs		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Unvested at the beginning of the period	10,196		$	86.37
Granted	193,365		46.94
Vested and distributed	(19,177	)	65.01
Forfeited	(7,151	)	51.49
Unvested at the end of the period	177,233		$	47.06	$	13,530

We did not grant any RSUs during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The total intrinsic value of RSUs vested during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $1,905, $6,749 and $11,581, respectively.

Restricted share awards

As part of our acquisition of Tradeprint during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we issued 65,050 restricted ordinary shares. The fair value of the RSAs was determined based on our share price on the date of grant and was recognized as share-based compensation expense over the applicable service period. These awards vested over a 2 to 4 year period. The remaining 4,145 unvested shares vested during the year ended June 30, 2020, with a weighted average grant date value of $64.53.

Share-based compensation

Total share-based compensation costs were $34,874, $21,716 and $50,466 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and we elected to recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur.

From time to time we issue awards that are considered liability-based awards as they are settleable in cash. We previously had a liability-based award associated with our Printi LLC investment and we had fully reserved for the loan receivable in fiscal 2019 and throughout fiscal 2020 since the collateral value of the related liability was estimated to have no value. This agreement was settled in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, refer to Note 15 for additional details.

Share-based compensation costs capitalized as part of software and website development costs were $1,157, $1,141 and $1,607 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As of June 30, 2020, there was $29,165 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested, share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, our effective tax rate was significantly impacted by Swiss Tax Reform, as discussed in more detail below. Without the Swiss Tax Reform benefit, our effective tax rate for the year was above our U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible goodwill impairments and losses in certain

jurisdictions for which we cannot recognize a tax benefit. The jurisdictions that have the most significant impact to our non-U.S. tax provision include Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland. The applicable tax rates in these jurisdictions range from 10% to 32%. The total tax rate benefit from operating in non-U.S. jurisdictions is included in the line “Tax rate differential on non-U.S. earnings” in the above tax rate reconciliation table.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, our effective tax rate was (2,697.0)% as compared to the prior year effective tax rate of 26.3%. The decrease in our effective tax rate as compared to the prior year is primarily due to Swiss Tax Reform. Also, in addition to a more favorable mix of earnings year-over-year, we recognized tax benefits of $15,705 related to excess tax benefits from share based compensation, as compared to $1,539 in fiscal 2019, and $11,188 for the re-measurement of U.S. tax losses that will be carried back to tax years with higher U.S. federal tax rates under the US CARES Act. We also recognized tax expense of $41,900 to record a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets and a portion for our Irish deferred tax assets. The change in judgment to no longer recognize the deferred tax assets was driven by decreased profits due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and goodwill impairments. During fiscal 2020 we recognized "Patent Box" tax benefits granted to our Pixartprinting business in Italy of $728, as compared to $4,260 in fiscal 2019 representing three years' worth of benefits. Our fiscal year 2019 effective tax rate was lower than fiscal year 2018 primarily due a more favorable geographic mix on increased profits and the Italian Patent Box benefits, offset by decreased share-based compensation tax benefits of $1,539 as compared to $12,802 in fiscal 2018.

On October 25, 2019, the canton of Zurich enacted tax law changes by publishing the results of its referendum to adopt the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF), which we refer to as Swiss Tax Reform. Swiss Tax Reform was effective as of January 1, 2020 and included the abolishment of various favorable federal and cantonal tax regimes. Swiss Tax Reform provided transitional relief measures for companies that lost the tax benefit of a ruling, including a "step-up" for amortizable goodwill, equal to the amount of future tax benefit they would have received under their existing ruling, subject to certain limitations. We recognized a tax benefit of $113,482 to establish new Swiss deferred tax assets related to transitional relief measures and to remeasure our existing Swiss deferred tax assets and liabilities. We don't expect to realize the majority of this benefit until fiscal 2025 through fiscal 2030.

Significant components of our deferred income tax assets and liabilities consisted of the following at June 30, 2020 and 2019:

	June 30, 2020			June 30, 2019
Deferred tax assets:
Swiss tax reform amortizable goodwill	$	127,965		$	—
Net operating loss carryforwards	62,374			80,832
Capital leases	33,078			31,010
Depreciation and amortization	4,308			3,315
Accrued expenses	6,253			6,441
Share-based compensation	9,482			11,241

Subtotal	286,966			163,644
Valuation allowance	(91,575		)	(59,410		)
Total deferred tax assets	195,391			104,234
Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation and amortization	(41,017		)	(50,091		)
Capital leases	(30,433		)	(27,694		)
Investment in flow-through entity	(3,550		)	(3,078		)
Tax on unremitted earnings	(6,203		)	(5,145		)
Other	(4,502		)	(2,851		)
Total deferred tax liabilities	(85,705		)	(88,859		)
Net deferred tax assets	$	109,686		$	15,375

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The increase in the valuation allowance from the prior year relates primarily to losses in certain jurisdictions (mainly the United States, Ireland, Brazil, China, Japan, and the United Kingdom) for which management has determined we cannot recognize the related deferred tax assets based on trailing three-year pre-tax profit or loss adjusted for permanent book versus tax differences. In addition, losses on certain of our derivative financial instruments grew, resulting in an additional increase to the valuation allowance. Also, Cimpress plc generated $2,442 of Irish foreign tax credit carryforwards which do not expire, but for which management has determined it is more likely than not that these will not be utilized upon future repatriation. Offsetting the overall increase in the valuation allowance, we wrote-off deferred tax assets of $14,240 and the corresponding valuation allowance related to Cimpress N.V.'s Irish foreign tax credit carryforwards as these do not transfer to Cimpress plc subsequent to the Irish Merger.

We have recorded a full valuation allowance against $6,739 of deferred tax asset related to interest rate swaps for which management has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be recognized in the foreseeable future. The impact of this deferred tax asset and associated valuation allowance of $5,213 has been recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss on the balance sheet. The remaining valuation allowance of $1,526 was recorded to continuing operations. Additionally, we have recorded valuation allowances of $22,180 and $4,114 against deferred tax assets related to U.S. research and development credits and U.S. capital loss carryforwards, respectively, for which management has determined that it is more likely than not that these will not be utilized within the applicable carryforward periods available under local law.

We have recorded a partial valuation allowance of $1,149 related to the Swiss Tax Reform amortizable goodwill deferred tax asset as our current projections indicate we may not be able to utilize the full benefit. We have not recorded a valuation allowance against $20,036 of deferred tax asset associated with prior year tax losses generated in Switzerland. Management believes there is sufficient positive evidence in the form of historical and future projected profitability to conclude that it is more likely than not that all of the losses in Switzerland will be utilized against future taxable profits within the available carryforward period. Our assessments are reliant on the

attainment of our future operating profit goals. Failure to achieve these operating profit goals may change our assessment of these deferred tax assets, and such change would result in additional valuation allowance and an increase in income tax expense to be recorded in the period of the change in assessment. We will continue to review our forecasts and profitability trends on a quarterly basis.

Based on the weight of available evidence at June 30, 2020, 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 on a quarterly basis.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the valuation allowance for the year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

Balance at June 30, 2019	$	59,410
Charges to earnings (1)	36,833
Charges to other accounts (2)	(6,198		)
Balance at June 30, 2020	$	90,045

_________________

(1) Amount is primarily related to U.S. research and development credits and capital loss carryforwards, U.S. and non-U.S. net operating losses, Irish foreign tax credits and Swiss tax reform amortizable goodwill.

(2) Amount is primarily related to decrease in deferred tax assets on non-U.S. net operating losses due to currency exchange rate changes and sale of VIDA, offset by unrealized losses on interest rate swaps included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

As of June 30, 2020, we had gross U.S. federal and apportioned state net operating losses of approximately $41,107 that expire on various dates from fiscal 2036 through fiscal 2040 or with unlimited carryforward. We also had gross non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $426,027, a significant amount of which begin to expire in fiscal 2023, with the remaining amounts expiring on various dates from fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2029 or with unlimited carryforward. In addition, we had $26,814 of tax credit carryforwards primarily related to U.S. federal and state research and development credits, which expire on various dates beginning in fiscal 2031 or with unlimited carryforward. Lastly, we had $18,164 and $5,662 of U.S. federal and apportioned state capital loss carryforwards, respectively, which expire in fiscal 2025. The benefits of these carryforwards are dependent upon the generation of taxable income in the jurisdictions where they arose.

We consider the following factors, among others, in evaluating our plans for indefinite reinvestment of our subsidiaries’ earnings: (i) the forecasts, budgets and financial requirements of both our parent company and its subsidiaries, both for the long term and for the short term; (ii) the ability of Cimpress plc to fund its operations and obligations with earnings from other businesses within the global group without incurring substantial tax costs; and (iii) the tax consequences of any decision to reinvest earnings of any subsidiary. As of June 30, 2020, no tax provision has been made for $36,584 of undistributed earnings of certain of our subsidiaries as these earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested. If, in the future, we decide to repatriate the undistributed earnings from these subsidiaries in the form of dividends or otherwise, we could be subject to withholding taxes payable in the range of $9,000 to $10,000 at that time. A cumulative deferred tax liability of $6,203 has been recorded attributable to undistributed earnings that we have deemed are not indefinitely reinvested. The remaining undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries are not deemed to be indefinitely reinvested and can be repatriated with no tax cost. Accordingly, there has been no provision for income or withholding taxes on these earnings. 

We currently benefit from various income tax holidays in certain jurisdictions. The tax holidays expire on various dates from October 2020 through August 2022. When the tax holidays expire, we will be subject to tax at rates ranging from 10% to 30%. As a result of the tax holidays, our net income was higher by $457 for fiscal 2020.

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

Balance June 30, 2017	$	5,383
Additions based on tax positions related to the current tax year	612
Additions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	93
Reductions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	(261		)
Reductions due to audit settlements	(31		)
Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations	(1,105		)
Cumulative translation adjustment	14
Balance June 30, 2018	4,705
Additions based on tax positions related to the current tax year	702
Additions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	201
Reductions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	(117		)
Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations	(763		)
Cumulative translation adjustment	(7		)
Balance June 30, 2019	4,721
Additions based on tax positions related to the current tax year	586
Additions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	769
Reductions based on tax positions related to prior tax years	(102		)
Reductions due to audit settlements	(52		)
Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations	(71		)
Cumulative translation adjustment	(4		)
Balance June 30, 2020	$	5,847

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits (exclusive of interest) that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate is $912. 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $384, $515 and $448, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a further change in unrecognized tax benefits in the range of $165 to $450 may occur within the next twelve months related to the settlement of one or more audits or the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations. 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 2014 through 2019 remain open for examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the years 2014 through 2019 remain open for examination in the various states and non-US tax jurisdictions in which we file tax returns.

We are currently under income tax audit in certain jurisdictions globally. We believe that our income tax reserves are adequately maintained taking into consideration both the technical merits of our tax return positions and ongoing developments in our income tax audits. However, the final determination of our tax return positions, if audited, is uncertain and therefore there is a possibility that final resolution of these matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.

Noncontrolling interests

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract]

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling Interests

For some of our subsidiaries, we own a controlling equity stake, and a third party or key member of the business' management team owns a minority portion of the equity. The balance sheet and operating activity of these entities are included in our consolidated financial statements and 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 redeemable noncontrolling interests as temporary equity within our consolidated balance sheet and the proportionate share of noncontrolling interests not subject to a redemption provision that is outside of our control as equity. We recognize redeemable noncontrolling interests at fair value on the sale or acquisition date and adjust to the redemption value on a periodic basis with the offset to retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet. If the formulaic redemption value exceeds the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, then the accretion to redemption value is offset to the net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in our consolidated statement of operations.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

PrintBrothers

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we sold a minority equity interest in each of the three businesses within our PrintBrothers reportable segment to members of the management team. We received proceeds of €50,173 ($57,046 based on the exchange rate on the date we received the proceeds) in exchange for an equity interest in each of the businesses ranging from 12% to 13%. As of June 30, 2019, we recognized the redeemable noncontrolling interest at fair value of $57,046. The put options associated with the redeemable noncontrolling interest are exercisable beginning in 2021, while the associated call options become exercisable in 2026. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we recorded an adjustment of $5,493 to increase the carrying value to the estimated redemption amounts, with the offset recognized in retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet, since the estimated redemption amounts were less than the fair value. As of June 30, 2020, the redemption value was less than the carrying value, due in part to the decline in performance driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, and therefore no adjustment was required.

All Other Businesses

On October 1, 2018, we acquired approximately 99% of the outstanding equity interests of Build A Sign LLC. The remaining 1% is considered a redeemable noncontrolling equity interest, as it is redeemable for cash based on future financial results through put and call rights and not solely within our control. On the acquisition date, we recognized the redeemable noncontrolling interest at fair value of $3,356. As of June 30, 2020, the redemption value was less than the carrying value, and therefore no adjustment was required.

On July 2, 2018, we acquired approximately 73% of the shares of VIDA Group Co. and on April 10, 2020, we sold all of the shares we held in the VIDA business. Prior to the sale, the carrying value of the VIDA redeemable noncontrolling equity interest was zero.

The following table presents the reconciliation of changes in our redeemable noncontrolling interests:

Balance as of June 30, 2018	$	86,151
Proceeds from sale of noncontrolling interest	57,046
Acquisition of noncontrolling interest	9,061
Accretion to redemption value recognized in retained earnings	7,133
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest	(1,566		)
Distribution to noncontrolling interest	(3,375		)
Purchase of noncontrolling interests	(85,520		)
Adjustment to additional-paid in capital for purchase of noncontrolling interest	(2,714		)

Variable Interest Entity [Line Items]

Variable Interest Entity (VIE)

Variable Interest Entity ("VIE")

Investment in Printi LLC

As of June 30, 2020, we have a 96.3% equity interest in Printi LLC, which owns an operating company in Brazil, and the shareholders of Printi share profits and voting control on a pro-rata basis. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we entered into an agreement to purchase an additional 42.6% economic interest in Printi. In exchange for acquiring the additional equity interest, we did not make any additional outlays of cash; rather we forgave loans provided to two previous Printi equity holders, which previously represented prepayments for our purchase of their equity interests. Prior to purchasing the additional equity interest, the carrying value of the related loans were zero as we fully reserved for the loan receivable in fiscal year 2019 when we determined the collateral was estimated to have no value.

For the remaining minority equity interest, we previously agreed to acquire the remaining shares in Printi through a reciprocal put and call structure, contractually exercisable from April 1, 2021 through a mandatory redemption date of July 31, 2023. This contractual obligation is presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet and we adjust the liability to its estimated redemption value each reporting period and recognize any changes within interest expense, net in our consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the carrying value of this liability is zero, based on its estimated redemption value.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Segment Information

Our operating segments are based upon the manner in which our operations are managed and the availability of separate financial information reported internally to the Chief Executive Officer, who is our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for purposes of making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised our internal organizational and reporting structure leading to changes in our Vistaprint and All Other Businesses reportable segments. Our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions, Vistaprint India, and Vistaprint Japan businesses, which were previously aggregated based on materiality in our All Other Businesses, are now directly managed within the Vistaprint business. These businesses are close derivatives or adjacencies of the Vistaprint business and leverage the Vistaprint brand, customers, technology, and/or other

assets. This change in reporting structure positions them closer to the Vistaprint operations, capabilities, and resources. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we reorganized technology teams that previously existed within our Vistaprint business and our central teams. The reorganization resulted in some team member reductions in both organizations, and the net transfer of 177 team members from Vistaprint to our central Cimpress technology team. This change is intended to free up resources to make more Vistaprint technologies available to other Cimpress businesses in the future, to accelerate Vistaprint's re-platforming efforts, and to reduce costs where no longer necessary. We have revised our presentation of all prior periods presented to reflect our revised segment reporting for the two changes made during fiscal 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, we have numerous operating segments under our management reporting structure which are reported in the following five reportable segments:

• Vistaprint - Includes the operations of our global Vistaprint websites and our Webs-branded business, which is managed with the Vistaprint-branded digital business. Also included is our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions business which serves medium-sized businesses and large corporations, as well as a legacy revenue stream with retail partners and franchise businesses

• PrintBrothers - Includes the results of our druck.at, Printdeal, and WIRmachenDRUCK businesses

• The Print Group - Includes the results of our Easyflyer, Exaprint, Pixartprinting, and Tradeprint businesses

• National Pen - Includes the global operations of our National Pen business, which manufactures and markets custom writing instruments and promotional products, apparel and gifts

• All Other Businesses - Includes a collection of businesses grouped together based on materiality:

◦ BuildASign is an internet-based provider of canvas-print wall décor, business signage and other large-format printed products, based in Austin, Texas. 

◦ Printi is an online printing leader in Brazil, which offers a superior customer experience with transparent and attractive pricing, reliable service and quality.

◦ VIDA was part All Other Businesses segment through April 10, 2020, the date on which we sold our shares in the business.

◦ YSD is a startup operation that provides end-to-end mass customization solutions to brands and intellectual property owners in China, supporting multiple channels including retail stores, websites, WeChat and e-commerce platforms to enhance brand awareness and competitiveness and develop new markets.

Central and corporate costs consist primarily of the team of software engineers that is building our mass customization platform; shared service organizations such as global procurement; technology services such as hosting and security; administrative costs of our Cimpress India offices where numerous Cimpress businesses have dedicated business-specific team members; and corporate functions including our Board of Directors, CEO, and the team members necessary for managing corporate activities, such as treasury, tax, capital allocation, financial consolidation, internal audit and legal. These costs also include certain unallocated share-based compensation costs.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we changed our segment profitability measure to an adjusted EBITDA metric. The financial metric that we use to hold our businesses accountable on an annual basis is unlevered free cash flow. Historically, we have reported segment profit based on adjusted net operating profit; however, this is not a direct input to unlevered free cash flow. We believe this change simplifies both our internal and external reporting, while also increasing the focus on a profitability metric that is a direct input into our internal operating measure, our steady-state free cash flow analysis that we report annually and our estimates of intrinsic value per share.    

The primary difference between the segment profit we previously reported and the revised metric is depreciation and amortization. The prior adjusted NOP-based metric only removed amortization of acquired intangibles, and the new segment EBITDA metric removes all depreciation and amortization, except for depreciation expense related to our Waltham, Massachusetts lease, which we treat in our historical results as operating expense. The new segment EBITDA metric does include the cost of long-term incentive programs, including share-based compensation, just as the prior adjusted NOP-based metric.

For awards granted under our 2016 Performance Equity Plan, the PSU expense value is based on a Monte Carlo fair value analysis and is required to be expensed on an accelerated basis. In order to ensure comparability in measuring our businesses' results, we allocate the straight-line portion of the fixed grant value to our businesses. Any expense in excess of the amount as a result of the fair value measurement of the PSUs and the accelerated expense profile of the awards is recognized within central and corporate costs. All expense or benefit associated with our supplemental PSUs is recognized within central and corporate costs.

Our definition of segment EBITDA is GAAP operating income excluding certain items, such as depreciation and amortization (with the exception of depreciation expense associated with our Waltham, Massachusetts lease for periods prior to our adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019), expense recognized for contingent earn-out related charges including the changes in fair value of contingent consideration and compensation expense related to cash-based earn-out mechanisms dependent upon continued employment, share-based compensation related to investment consideration, certain impairment expense, and restructuring charges. For historical periods presented, a portion of the interest expense associated with our Waltham, Massachusetts lease is included as expense in segment EBITDA and allocated based on headcount to the appropriate business or corporate and global function. The interest expense represents a portion of the cash rent payment and is considered an operating expense for purposes of measuring our segment performance. Beginning in fiscal 2020, as part of our adoption of the new leasing standard, the accounting treatment for our Waltham, Massachusetts lease has changed to an operating lease, so the expense associated with this lease is reflected in operating income and no longer requires an adjustment to segment EBITDA. We do not allocate non-operating income, including realized gains and losses on currency hedges, to our segment results.

Our All Other Businesses reportable segment includes businesses that have operating losses as they are in the early stage of investment relative to the scale of the underlying businesses, which may limit its comparability to other segments regarding segment EBITDA.

Our balance sheet information is not presented to the CODM on an allocated basis, and therefore we do not present asset information by segment. We do present other segment information to the CODM, which includes purchases of property, plant and equipment and capitalization of software and website development costs, and therefore include that information in the tables below.

Revenue by segment is based on the business-specific websites or sales channel through which the customer’s order was transacted. The following tables set forth revenue by reportable segment, as well as disaggregation of revenue by major geographic region and reportable segment.

(1) Upon the adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA lease, which was previously classified as build-to-suit, is now classified as an operating lease under the new standard.

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring costs include one-time employee termination benefits, acceleration of share-based compensation, write-off of assets and other related costs including third-party professional and outplacement services. The restructuring charges included in our consolidated statement of operations for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $13,543, $12,054 and $15,236, respectively.

During the year ended June 30, 2020, we recognized restructuring charges of $13,543 consisting of charges of $5,734 within our Vistaprint reportable segment as we continue to evolve our organizational structure, including our recent reorganization of the technology team. We also recognized $3,532 in charges within our central and corporate costs, due to the coordinated reorganization of technology teams with our Vistaprint business. We also incurred charges of $3,211, $535 and $475 in our National Pen, All Other Businesses and The Print Group reportable segments, respectively during the year ended June 30, 2020, for various cost reduction measures primarily in response to the pandemic.

During the year ended June 30, 2019, we recognized restructuring charges of $12,054, primarily related to a restructuring action within our Vistaprint business, resulting in $8,467 of charges. The Vistaprint action included changes to the leadership team, as well as other reductions in headcount and associated costs. We also incurred individually immaterial restructuring charges in The Print Group and All Other Businesses reportable segments, and Central and Corporate cost center of $2,223, $1,197, and $167, respectively.

During the year ended June 30, 2018, we recognized restructuring charges of $15,236, which included $12,112 related to our Vistaprint reorganization for reductions in headcount and other operating costs. These changes simplified operations and more closely aligned functions to increase the speed of execution. We also recognized $2,249 of restructuring charges within the central and corporate group, as well as $819 of expense for an initiative within our All Other Businesses reportable segment. During the year ended June 30, 2018, we recognized changes in estimates of $56 from our January 2017 restructuring initiative.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2020

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cimpress plc, 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 cannot exercise significant influence, and the related equity securities do not have a readily determinable fair value, are accounted for using the cost method and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Given the current and expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business we evaluated our liquidity position as of the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Based on this evaluation, management believes, despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our business, that our financial position, net cash provided by operations combined with our cash and cash equivalents, borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility, and the April 2020 temporary maintenance covenant suspension and capital raise as described in Note 10, will be sufficient to fund our current obligations, capital spending, debt service requirements and working capital requirements over at least the next twelve months.  

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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, 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.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of August 11, 2020, the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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 $86 and $87 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

For bank accounts that are overdrawn at the end of a reporting period, including any net negative balance in our notional cash pool, we reclassify these overdrafts to short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets. Book overdrafts that result from outstanding checks in excess of our bank balance are reclassified to other current liabilities. As of June 30, 2020, we reclassified $3,768 to short-term debt within our consolidated balance sheets and presented the overdraw within financing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. We did not have a bank overdraw in the prior period. As of June 30, 2020, we did not record a book overdraft, however as of June 30, 2019, we reclassified a book overdraft of $2,144 to other current liabilities.

Accounts Receivable [Policy Text Block]

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes amounts due from customers. 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 no longer reasonably assured.

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventories

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

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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 any of the years presented 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.

Research, Development, and Computer Software, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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, which is generally over a three year period. 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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $40,753, $35,068 and $31,332, respectively, resulting in accumulated amortization of $180,993 and $136,721 at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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 using the income approach to value the trade names, customer relationships and customer network and a replacement cost approach to value developed technology and our print network. 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. We 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. 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 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.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets with a finite 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. We did not recognize any impairment or abandonment charges for acquired intangible assets in any of the periods presented.

Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Business Combinations

We recognize the assets acquired 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. Assets acquired 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.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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 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 a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

Debt, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs associated with the issuance of debt instruments are capitalized and amortized over the term of the respective financing arrangement on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of the related debt instrument. We evaluate all changes to our debt arrangements, to determine whether the changes represent a modification or extinguishment to the old debt arrangement. If a debt instrument is deemed to be modified, we capitalize all new lenders fees and expense all third-party fees. If we determine that an extinguishment of one of our debt instruments has occurred, the unamortized financing fees associated with the extinguished instrument are expensed. For the revolving loans associated with our senior secured credit facility, all lender and third-party fees are capitalized, and in the event the amendment reduces the committed capacity under the revolving loans, we expense a portion of any unamortized fees on a pro-rata basis in proportion to the decrease in the committed capacity.

Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedging Derivatives [Policy Text Block]

Derivative Financial Instruments

We record all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. We apply hedge accounting to arrangements that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting treatment, which includes cash flow and net investment hedges. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively if the hedging relationship ceases to be effective or the hedging or hedged items cease to exist as a result of maturity, sale, termination or cancellation.

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 which could include interest rate swap contracts and cross-currency swap contracts. In a cash flow hedging relationship, the effective and ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of the hedging derivative is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until the forecasted transaction is recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, we present the settlement amount of these contracts within cash from investing activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows, if the hedged item continues after contract settlement.

Derivatives designated and qualifying as hedges of currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation are considered net investment hedges which could include cross-currency swap and currency forward contracts. In hedging the currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective and ineffective portion of gains and losses on the hedging instruments is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as part of currency translation adjustment. The portion of gain or loss on the derivative instrument previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until we reduce our investment in the hedged foreign operation through a sale or substantial liquidation.

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. When hedge accounting is not applied, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded directly in earnings as a component of other (expense) income, 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.

Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest [Policy Text Block]

Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interests held by third parties in consolidated subsidiaries are considered mandatorily redeemable when they are subject to an unconditional obligation to be redeemed by both parties. The redeemable noncontrolling interest must be required to be repurchased on a specified date or on the occurrence of a specified event that is certain to occur and are to be redeemed via the transfer of assets. Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented as liability-based financial instruments and are re-measured on a recurring basis to the expected redemption value.

Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) 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 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 Accounting Method [Policy Text Block]

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 as consideration for some of our acquisition transactions. Upon issuance of treasury shares we determine the cost using the average cost method.

Schedule of Stockholders' Equity Note, Warrants or Rights [Table Text Block]

Warrants

During the fourth quarter of 2020, we issued warrants in conjunction with the issuance of second lien debt. The warrants are legally detachable from the debt and settleable only in our shares. We account for the warrants in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires us to bifurcate and separately account for the detachable warrant as a separate equity instrument. The value assigned to the warrants was determined based on a relative fair value allocation between the warrants and related debt. The fair value of the warrants was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation and applying a discount for the lack of marketability for the warrants. We present the allocated value for the warrants within additional paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 10 for additional details related to the refinancing.

Revenue [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenue primarily from the sale and shipment of customized manufactured products. To a much lesser extent (and only in our Vistaprint business) we provide digital services, website design and hosting, and email marketing services, as well as a small percentage from order referral fees and other third-party offerings. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. Shipping revenues are recognized when control of the related products is transferred to the customer.

Under the terms of most of our arrangements with our customers we provide satisfaction guarantees, which give our customers an option for a refund or reprint over a specified period of time if the customer is not fully satisfied. As such, we record a reserve for estimated sales returns and allowances as a reduction of revenue, based on historical experience or the specific identification of an event necessitating a reserve. Actual sales returns have historically not been significant.

We have elected to recognize shipping and handling activities that occur after transfer of control of the products as fulfillment activities and not as a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, we recognize revenue

for our single performance obligation upon the transfer of control of the fulfilled orders, which generally occurs upon delivery to the shipping carrier. If revenue is recognized prior to completion of the shipping and handling activities, we accrue the costs of those activities. We do have some arrangements whereby the transfer of control, and thus revenue recognition, occurs upon delivery to the customer. If multiple products are ordered together, each product is considered a separate performance obligation, and the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of each performance obligation. We generally determine the standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to our customers.

Our products are customized for each individual customer with no alternative use except to be delivered to that specific customer; however, we do not have an enforceable right to payment prior to delivering the items to the customer based on the terms and conditions of our arrangements with customers and therefore we recognize revenue at a point in time.

We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of our satisfaction of the related performance obligation. The satisfaction of performance obligations generally occurs shortly after cash payment and we expect to recognize our deferred revenue balance as revenue within three months subsequent to June 30, 2020.

We periodically provide marketing materials and promotional offers to new customers and existing customers that are intended to improve customer retention. These incentive offers are generally available to all customers and, therefore, do not represent a performance obligation as customers are not required to enter into a contractual commitment to receive the offer. These discounts are recognized as a reduction to the transaction price when used by the customer. Costs related to free products are included within cost of revenue and sample products are included within marketing and selling expense.

We have elected to expense incremental direct costs as incurred, which primarily includes sales commissions, since our contract periods generally are less than one year and the related performance obligations are satisfied within a short period of time. Additional revenue disaggregation disclosure requirements resulting from the adoption of ASC 606 are included in Note 16.

Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activity or Restructuring [Policy Text Block]

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 a facility 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 presented as a separate financial statement line within our consolidated statement of operations.

For jurisdictions in which there are statutorily required minimum benefits for involuntary terminations, or severance benefits documented in an employee manual or labor contract, we evaluate these benefits under ASC 712 as ongoing benefit arrangements. We recognize the liability for these arrangements when it is probable that the employee would be entitled to the benefits and the amounts can be reasonably estimated.

Advertising Cost [Policy Text Block]

Advertising Expense

Our advertising costs are primarily expensed as incurred and included in marketing and selling expense. Advertising expense for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $302,449, $427,673, and $432,546, respectively, which consisted of external costs related to customer acquisition and retention marketing campaigns.

Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block]

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, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $49,201, $40,976, and $41,451, respectively, which consisted of costs related to enhancing our manufacturing engineering and technology capabilities.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we calculate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current tax expense and deferred tax expense based on 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. 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 as 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 Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

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 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 consolidated statements of operations.

Other Income (expense), net

Other Income (Expense), Net

The following table summarizes the components of other income (expense), net:

	Year Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2018
Gains on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (1)	$	20,564	$	23,494	$	(2,687	)
Currency-related gains (losses), net (2)	2,309		2,506		(19,500		)
Other gains	1		476		1,155
Total other income (expense), net	$	22,874	$	26,476	$	(21,032	)

_____________________

(1) Primarily relates to both realized and unrealized gains on derivative currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments, as well as certain interest rate swap contracts that have been de-designated from hedge accounting due to their ineffectiveness.

(2) We have significant non-functional currency intercompany financing relationships that we may change at times and are subject to currency exchange rate volatility. The currency-related gains (losses), net for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are primarily driven by this intercompany activity. In addition, we have certain cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges, which hedge the remeasurement of certain intercompany loans, both presented in the same component above. The unrealized gain related to cross-currency swaps was $929 for the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to an unrealized loss of $3,484 for the year ended June 30, 2019, and an unrealized gain of $2,722 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

Net Income Per Share

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Cimpress plc

Basic net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc is computed by dividing net income attributable to Cimpress plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including share options, restricted share units (“RSUs”), restricted share awards ("RSAs"), warrants, and performance share units ("PSUs"), 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,
	2020	2019	2018
Weighted average shares outstanding, basic	27,180,744	30,786,349	30,948,081
Weighted average shares issuable upon exercise/vesting of outstanding share options/PSUs/RSUs/RSAs/warrants (1)	592,542	876,356	1,272,320
Shares used in computing diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	27,773,286	31,662,705	32,220,401
Weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted net income per share attributable to Cimpress plc	1,325	—	2,291

_____________________

(1)

On May 1, 2020, we entered into a financing arrangement with Apollo Global Management, Inc., which included 7-year warrants with a strike price of $60 that have a potentially dilutive impact on our weighted average shares outstanding. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average dilutive effect of the warrants was 73,719 shares. Refer to Note 10 for additional details about the arrangement.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based Compensation

Compensation expense for all share-based awards is measured at fair value on the date of grant and recognized over the requisite service period. We recognize the impact of forfeitures as they occur. 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. The fair value of RSUs and RSAs is determined based on 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. For awards that are ultimately settleable in cash, we treat them as liability awards and mark the award to market each reporting period recognizing any gain or loss in our statements of operations. For awards with a performance condition vesting feature, compensation cost is recorded if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

We have issued performance share units, or PSUs, which are estimated at fair value on the date of grant, which is fixed throughout the vesting period. The fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. As the PSUs include both a service and market condition the related expense is recognized using the accelerated expense attribution method over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. For PSUs that meet the service vesting condition, the expense recognized over the requisite service period will not be reversed if the market condition is not achieved.

In addition to a service vesting and market condition (based on the three year moving average of the Cimpress share price) contained in our standard performance share units, we also issue awards that contain financial performance conditions. These awards with a discretionary performance condition are subject to mark-to-market accounting throughout the performance vesting period. The compensation expense for these awards is estimated at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and compensation costs are recorded only if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We are required to reassess the probability each reporting period. If we determine the awards are not probable at some point during the performance vesting period we would reverse any expense recognized to date.

Total share-based compensation expense was $34,874, $21,716 and $50,466 for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Compensated Absences Policy [Policy Text Block]

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.

Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We monitor the creditworthiness of our customers to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020 and 2019. We do not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of our revenue for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

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.

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block]

Lease Accounting

Lease accounting - adoption of ASC 842

On July 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases, using a modified retrospective transition approach. Under the modified retrospective approach, we recognized any cumulative impacts as of the adoption date within retained earnings on our consolidated balance sheet. We did not adjust the prior comparable period. Additionally, as part of our transition, we elected several practical expedients that streamlined the transition to the new guidance whereby we did not reassess the following:

• whether a lease under the prior standard continues to meet the definition of a lease under the new standard;

• whether the application of the new standard would have an impact on the classification of our existing leases, with the exception of our build-to-suit leases; and

• the existence of any initial direct costs associated with our leases.

We also elected the practical expedient to account for our lease components as a single lease component rather than separating them into lease and nonlease components, which would have resulted in recognizing only the lease components in the measurement of our lease assets and liabilities. This expedient was applied to all underlying classes of assets we lease.

We elected the short-term lease exception policy, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases, which are defined as leases with a term of twelve months or less. Short-term leases are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our consolidated statement of operations. We determine the lease term by including the exercise of renewal options that are considered reasonably certain at lease inception.

The following table summarizes the cumulative effect of adopting the new lease standard as of the adoption date of July 1, 2019:

Consolidated Balance Sheet	As reported at June 30, 2019		ASC 842 adjustments			Adjusted balance at July 1, 2019
Assets

The new standard impacted the classification of our build-to-suit leases for our Waltham, Massachusetts and Dallas, Texas building leases, which resulted in a change of their classification to operating leases. On July 1, 2019, we de-recognized the existing lease assets included within property, plant and equipment, net of $121,254, the related lease financing obligations of $124,665, and associated deferred rent of $418. This change resulted in an $817 decrease to deferred tax assets and a net increase to retained earnings of $2,989. In addition, on July 1, 2019, we recognized operating lease assets of $169,668 and operating lease liabilities of $176,383, inclusive of our Waltham, Massachusetts lease which commenced prior to the transition date. The difference between the operating lease assets and liabilities resulted from the reclassification of deferred rent and tenant allowance balances presented in other financial statement lines of the consolidated balance sheet, which are now included in the operating lease assets.

For the year ended June 30, 2020, the change in lease classification for our build-to-suit leases resulted in a reduction to operating income within our consolidated statement of operations of $7,440, with a corresponding decrease to interest expense, net. In our consolidated statement of cash flows, the change in classification resulted in a decrease to cash from operating activities and increase to cash from financing activities of $4,117 during the year ended June 30, 2020. Other than the impact from our build-to-suit leases, the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows. Refer to Note 17 for additional lease disclosure.

Lease accounting policy

We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception. We consider an arrangement to be a lease if it conveys the right to control an identifiable asset for a period of time. 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 lease term, excluding renewal periods.

Lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and liabilities for operating and finance leases are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at lease commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Our incremental borrowing rate approximates the interest rate on a collateralized basis for the economic environments where our leased assets are located, and is established by considering the credit spread associated with our existing debt arrangements, as well as observed market rates for instruments with a similar term to that of the lease payments. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement, as well as any initial direct costs incurred. Lease incentives received from the lessor are recognized as a reduction to the ROU asset.

Our initial determination of the lease term is based on the facts and circumstances that exist at lease commencement. The lease term may include the effect of options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised. We consider these options reasonably certain to be exercised based on our assessment of economic incentives, including the fair market rent for equivalent properties under similar terms and conditions, costs of relocating, availability of comparable replacement assets, and any related disruption to operations that would be experienced by not renewing the lease.

Finance leases are accounted for as an acquisition of an asset and incurrence of an obligation. Assets held under finance 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 finance lease obligation is recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease.

Operating leases are included in operating lease assets and current and non-current operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant, and equipment, net, and the related liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Variable lease payments are excluded from the operating lease assets and liabilities and are recognized as expense in the period in which the obligation is incurred. Variable lease payments primarily include index-based rent escalation associated with some of our real estate leases, as well as property taxes and common area

maintenance payments for most real estate leases, which are determined based on the costs incurred by the lessor. We also make variable lease payments for certain print equipment leases that are determined based on production volumes.

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. 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 finance 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.

We have subleased a small amount of our equipment and real estate lease portfolio to third parties, making us the lessor. Most of these subleases meet the criteria for operating lease classification and the related sublease income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term within the consolidated statement of operations. To a lesser extent, we have leases in which we are the lessees, classify the leases as finance leases and have subleased the asset under similar terms, resulting in their classification as direct financing leases. For direct financing leases, we recognize a sublease receivable within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Standards Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15 "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)" (ASU 2018-15), which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The standard would be effective on July 1, 2020 and we early adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019. The standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815)," (ASU 2017-12), which better aligns a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. We adopted the amendment on its effective date of July 1, 2019. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach, and we recognized the cumulative effect of the change within shareholders' equity as of the date of adoption. Upon transitioning to the new standard on July 1, 2019, we reversed the cumulative effect of expense previously recognized in earnings for the ineffective portion of our interest rate swap contracts, which resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive loss within our consolidated balance sheet of $153, net of tax. We will prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with our effective and designated cash flow hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. These changes did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" (ASU 2016-02), which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The standard also retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. We adopted the standard on its effective date of July 1, 2019. Refer to the information above for additional details of the adoption.

Issued Accounting Standards to be Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" (ASU 2019-12), which modifies certain aspects of income tax accounting. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)" (ASU 2016-13), which introduces a new accounting model for recognizing credit losses on certain financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2020. We do not expect the effect of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

_____________________

(1) Primarily relates to both realized and unrealized gains on derivative currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments, as well as certain interest rate swap contracts that have been de-designated from hedge accounting due to their ineffectiveness.

(2) We have significant non-functional currency intercompany financing relationships that we may change at times and are subject to currency exchange rate volatility. The currency-related gains (losses), net for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are primarily driven by this intercompany activity. In addition, we have certain cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges, which hedge the remeasurement of certain intercompany loans, both presented in the same component above. The unrealized gain related to cross-currency swaps was $929 for the year ended June 30, 2020 as compared to an unrealized loss of $3,484 for the year ended June 30, 2019, and an unrealized gain of $2,722 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments

As of June 30, 2020, we had ten outstanding interest rate swap contracts indexed to USD LIBOR, of which seven of these instruments were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2025. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three contracts from hedge accounting due to an increased floor to our LIBOR borrowing costs related to the April 2020 amendment to our senior secured credit facility. As a result of this change in the underlying debt being hedged, these three forward starting hedges were no longer highly effective. These de-designated hedges have varying start dates and maturity dates through December 2026.

Interest rate swap contracts outstanding:	Notional Amounts
Contracts accruing interest as of June 30, 2020	$	500,000
Contracts with a future start date	50,000

The following table presents the adjustment to fair value recorded within the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 for derivative instruments for which we did not elect hedge accounting and de-designated derivative financial instruments that no longer qualify as hedging instruments in the period.

_____________________

(1) Upon our adoption of the new hedge accounting standard on July 1, 2019, we prospectively recognize any ineffectiveness associated with effective and designated hedges within accumulated other comprehensive loss, rather than in earnings. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we de-designated three of our interest rate swaps and therefore no longer apply hedge accounting. Subsequent to their de-designation, we recognize any fair value adjustments to those instruments in other income (expense), net, as included in the table above.

As of June 30, 2020, we had the following outstanding currency derivative contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar value of forecasted transactions or balances denominated in Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Danish Krone, Euro, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Norwegian Krone, Philippine Peso and Swedish Krona:

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized goodwill related to an immaterial acquisition within our PrintBrothers reportable segment. In fiscal year 2019 we acquired the BuildASign and VIDA businesses as well as an immaterial supplier of one of our businesses within The Print Group reportable segment.

(2) During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we identified triggering events in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in the recognition of impairment to goodwill, please refer below for further detail. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we divested our VIDA business and recognized a loss of $1,520, in addition to the goodwill impairment recognized. In fiscal year 2019 we recorded an impairment charge for the goodwill of our Printi reporting unit. Refer below for additional details.

(3) Related to goodwill held by subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

(4) Due to changes in the composition of our reportable segments during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we reclassified the goodwill associated with our Vistaprint Corporate Solutions reporting unit from All Other Businesses to our Vistaprint reportable segment. Refer to Note 16 for additional details on the changes in our reportable segments.

Total accrued expenses	$	210,764	$	194,715

___________________

(1) The increase in income and indirect taxes is primarily due to government incentive programs in certain European jurisdictions, which has allowed for the deferral of payment of indirect taxes until fiscal 2021.

(2) The decline in advertising, production and shipping costs is due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions, which drove lower demand and a reduction in costs during the fourth quarter of the year ended June 30, 2020.

(3) The increase in interest payable is due to the additional offering of $200,000 of Senior Unsecured Notes in the third quarter and $300,000 in Second Lien Notes issued to Apollo Global Management, Inc. during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 10 for further detail.

___________________

(1) Due to our adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA, and Dallas, TX leases, which were previously classified as build-to-suit, are now classified as operating leases and therefore the lease financing obligation has been de-recognized. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

Long-term finance lease obligations	$	18,617	$	16,036

Total other liabilities	$	88,187	$	53,716

___________________

(1) The increase in long-term derivative liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2020, is due to unrealized losses on our interest rate swaps resulting from a change in the macroeconomic interest rate environment during the year.

(1) Upon the adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA lease, which was previously classified as build-to-suit, is now classified as an operating lease under the new standard. Therefore, the Waltham depreciation and interest expense adjustments that were made in comparative periods will no longer be made beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, as any impact from the Waltham lease will be reflected in operating income. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

(2) Includes impairments of goodwill defined by ASC 350 - "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" of $100,842, as well as losses of $1,520 recognized for fair value adjustments to the disposal group related to our VIDA sale during the year ended June 30, 2020. During fiscal year 2019 we recognized reserves for loans as defined by ASC 326 - "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses".

(3) Includes the impact of the gain on the sale of Albumprinter that was recognized in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statement of operations during the year ended June 30, 2018.

[2] Upon the adoption of the new leasing standard on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA lease, which was previously classified as build-to-suit, is now classified as an operating lease under the new standard. Therefore, the Waltham depreciation and interest expense adjustments that were made in comparative periods will no longer be made beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, as any impact from the Waltham lease will be reflected in operating income. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

[3] Excludes goodwill of $621,904 and $718,880, intangible assets, net of $209,228 and $262,701, and deferred tax assets of $143,496 and $59,906 as of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Build-to-suit lease assets of $124,408 are excluded for the year ended June 30, 2019, and upon our adoption of ASC 842 on July 1, 2019, our Waltham, MA and Dallas, TX build-to-suit lease asset balances were de-recognized.      As of June 30, 2020, all operating lease assets are recognized within the balances above. Refer to Note 2 for additional details.

[4] Includes impairments of goodwill defined by ASC 350 - "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" of $100,842, as well as losses of $1,520 recognized for fair value adjustments to the disposal group related to our VIDA sale during the year ended June 30, 2020. During fiscal year 2019 we recognized reserves for loans as defined by ASC 326 - "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses".
