**【CFO Financial Commentary】**
- **Q1 Financials**: Consolidated revenue grew 7% (4% organic), with adjusted EBITDA up 11% to a record $109M. Gross profit grew 5%, but margins contracted 80bps due to product mix shift.
- **Vistaprint Metrics**: Variable gross profit per customer rose 7% YoY, with 90% of growth coming from top 2 customer deciles.

**【Q&A Highlights】**

- **Tax Expense**: Q1 GAAP tax rate elevated due to seasonal profitability and one-time items, but cash taxes are expected to remain stable at ~15% of EBITDA.
- **Shareholder Engagement**: Actively engaging with activist investor Spruce House and other stakeholders, prioritizing execution of long-term plans over short-term share price concerns.
