Vistaprint also announced today a new investment approach and five-year financial targets to support its long-term growth strategy. (See separate press release issued on July 28, 2011.)

Ernst Teunissen, executive vice president and chief financial officer, said, "Vistaprint is committed to driving strong long-term shareholder returns. In light of our market opportunity and successful track record of execution, we have adopted an investment approach that we believe will support our strategy and drive stronger returns and robust revenue and earnings growth over the next several years. Our five-year goal is to achieve 20 percent or better constant-currency compound annual growth rates for both revenue and earnings. We expect to make deep investments earlier in the five-year period, starting in fiscal 2012. Therefore, in fiscal 2012, these planned investments will reduce earnings, but we anticipate revenue growth of 20 percent to 26 percent as compared to 22 percent for fiscal 2011."
