**Item 7.01.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Regulation FD Disclosure**

On May 11, 2026, Cimpress plc (the "Company") entered into a definitive agreement with CEWE Stiftung & Co. KGaA to acquire its SAXOPRINT and viaprinto businesses, which will be part of the Company's PrintBrothers segment. Collectively, these businesses generated €89.6 million in revenue in calendar year 2025 with approximately 10% EBITDA margins. The Company's net cash outflow for the transaction is expected to be less than €80 million after anticipated asset sales and the Company expects the acquisition, inclusive of significant synergies, to generate base case returns on capital well in excess of 20%. The Company also expects the transaction to enhance its per-share free cash flow as it executes against its previously announced FY2028 financial targets without changing its established plans to meaningfully reduce net leverage over the next two fiscal years.

The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including antitrust approval, and is expected to close in the first half of the Company's fiscal year 2027.

A copy of the Company's press release issued on May 11, 2026 announcing the acquisition is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.

The information in this Item 7.01 and the exhibit to this report is not "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor is it incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

## Exhibit 99.1

![](cimpresspressrelease-sax001.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Contacts: Investor Relations: Meredith Burns ir@cimpress.com Media Relations: Sara Litwiller mediarelations@cimpress.com Cimpress Agrees to Purchase SAXOPRINT and viaprinto from CEWE DUNDALK, Ireland, May 11, 2026 – Cimpress plc (Nasdaq: CMPR) has signed a definitive agreement with CEWE Stiftung & Co. KGaA to purchase its SAXOPRINT and viaprinto businesses (CEWE's Commercial Online Print segment). Through this tuck-in acquisition, Cimpress will grow its manufacturing capabilities in Germany, and will also welcome two new customer-focused brands into its PrintBrothers segment of upload and print businesses. SAXOPRINT, based in Dresden, Germany, serves business customers and is known for its high-quality low-cost production capabilities for flyers, booklets, brochures, catalogs and magazines. viaprinto, based in Münster, Germany, is a reseller known for serving business customers through an intuitive user experience and value-added services. Collectively, these businesses generated €89.6 million in revenue in calendar year 2025 with approximately 10% EBITDA margins. "This tuck-in acquisition by our PrintBrothers segment extends Cimpress' deep expertise and scale advantages in manufacturing, improving our ability to help millions of business customers build brands, stand out and grow via customized physical marketing products and branded merchandise," said Robert Keane, founder, chairman and CEO of Cimpress. "We have clear near-term plans to drive significant synergies through cross-Cimpress fulfilment. Multiple Cimpress businesses will leverage SAXOPRINT's world-class production capabilities for its primary products, and SAXOPRINT will source other products from Cimpress' focused production hubs across Europe. Those synergies, other near-term cash generation opportunities, and SAXOPRINT's standalone cash flow are expected to generate base case returns on capital well in excess of 20%. This acquisition should enhance Cimpress' per-share free cash

flow as we execute against our previously announced FY2028 financial targets without changing our established plans to meaningfully reduce net leverage over the next two fiscal years. We look forward to welcoming the SAXOPRINT and viaprinto team members to Cimpress upon closing." "This sale follows the 'best-owner' principle," said Thomas Mehls, CEO of CEWE. "We have a strong commercial online print business, but we believe its future potential is best realized under an owner like Cimpress, whose entire strategy aligns very closely to COP's focus and capabilities. This allows CEWE to direct its full energy toward photo finishing, where we have built a leading position and where we see the greatest value creation for our customers and shareholders through continued growth." The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including antitrust approval, and is expected to close in the first half of Cimpress' FY2027 (July 2026 - December 2026). Leadership team members of Cimpress' PrintBrothers segment are expected to co-invest alongside Cimpress and purchase a minority ownership interest in these acquired businesses equivalent to their interest in the other PrintBrothers segment businesses.
