Cimpress plc (CMPR) Earnings: Q1 Fiscal 2027 Results

The quarter ended September 30, 2026 and Cimpress published the results on October 28, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q1 fiscal 2026, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison.

• Cimpress's fiscal year ends June 30. Q1 fiscal 2027 is the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
• Cimpress files its earnings document as images (Exhibit 99.1). Figures here come from that document and the 10-Q; Cimpress reports in thousands of dollars, shown here in millions.
• Segment revenue includes sales between Cimpress businesses, which the inter-segment eliminations row removes.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

Cimpress reported Q1 fiscal 2027 revenue of $934.1 million, up 8% from $863.3 million on a reported basis and up 2% on an organic constant-currency basis.

(Cimpress Q1 fiscal 2027 earnings document, Oct 28, 2026; Cimpress Form 10-Q, Q1 fiscal 2027, Oct 29, 2026)

VistaPrint is the largest segment at $464.4 million, up 2%.

VistaPrint's variable gross profit per customer rose 7% to $90.98. (Cimpress Form 10-Q, Q1 fiscal 2027, Oct 29, 2026; Cimpress Q1 fiscal 2027 earnings document, Oct 28, 2026)

Cimpress repurchased no shares in the quarter. Weighted average diluted shares were 24,484,986, against 25,051,742 a year earlier, and Cimpress paid $13.8 million of withholding taxes on vesting equity awards.

Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.

Cimpress gives a full-year outlook in its earnings document and left its fiscal 2027 guidance unchanged: revenue growth of at least 7%, organic constant-currency growth of at least 3%, net income of at least $116 million, adjusted EBITDA of at least $520 million and adjusted free cash flow of about $200 million. Cimpress said the quarter was below its expectations and that it is accelerating cost reduction plans whose impact will build from Q2. (Cimpress Q1 fiscal 2027 earnings document, Oct 28, 2026)

For fiscal 2028 Cimpress expects 4% to 6% organic constant-currency revenue growth, at least $192 million of net income and $615 million of adjusted EBITDA, and expects net leverage of about 2.5x exiting fiscal 2027. (Cimpress Q1 fiscal 2027 earnings document, Oct 28, 2026)

A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover Cimpress, collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.

The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

The figures below are the ones Cimpress's own release and filings put weight on for Q1 fiscal 2027, with the latest reported value for each.

What the quarter means for a holding is a separate question from what it reported. The case for and against owning CMPR is on is CMPR a buy or a sell?, what analysts expect next is on the CMPR forecast, and what the company does is on the Cimpress plc (CMPR) stock page.

Every number on this page can be traced to a document Cimpress published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.

• The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
• The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
• The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
• Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.
