Merged Financial Metrics:
- Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 was $380.5 million, a 13 percent enhance contrast to revenue of $338.2 million stated in the same quarter a year ago. The year-over-year strengthening of the U.S. Dollar has negatively influenced the U.S. Dollar value of our revenues generated from countries other than the United States. Not taking into account the estimated impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations and revenue from businesses attained during the past twelve months, total revenue grew 13 percent year over year in the fourth quarter, in line with our expectations. For the full year, total merged revenue grew 18 percent year over year and 23 percent in constant currencies. Not taking into account the estimated impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations and revenue from businesses attained during the past twelve months, revenue for the full year grew 9 percent.
- Gross margin (revenue minus the cost of revenue as a percent of total revenue) in the fourth quarter was 58.9 percent, down from 60.5 percent in the same quarter a year ago. For the full fiscal year, gross margin was 61.9 percent contrast to 64.5 percent in fiscal year 2014. The year-over-year reduction in gross margin was primarily due to the mix effect of our acquisitions in the upload and print space that have lower gross margins than our Vistaprint business unit.
