Item 8.01. Other Events

On December 11, 2014, in line with the authorization we received from our shareholders at our Annual General Meeting on November 12, 2014, the Supervisory Board of Cimpress N.V. authorized the repurchase of up to 6,400,000 of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or in one or more self tender offers. This share repurchase program expires on May 12, 2016, and we may suspend or discontinue the program at any time. This new program replaces the previous repurchase program that our Supervisory Board approved in May 2014.

The Supervisory Board’s authorization does not necessarily mean that we will repurchase the full number of shares over the term of the repurchase program. Our management will determine the timing and amount of shares repurchased based on its evaluation of many factors, including but not limited to our share price relative to our anticipated future cash flows; our ability to use operating cash flow and/or debt to repurchase the shares while staying within our debt covenants which may not allow us to repurchase the full number of shares based on our leverage; the amount of cash and/or debt capacity we have for other uses including general operating purposes, acquisitions, mergers, or similar transactions; general shareholder concentration and liquidity concerns; and the purchase parameters set by our shareholders and the Supervisory Board. Any repurchased shares will be available for use in connection with our equity compensation plans and corporate acquisitions, and we expect to fund the repurchase program by using our operating cash flows or by drawing on our credit facility or other forms of debt financing.
