Collins Stewart initiates coverage on Vistaprint NV (NASDAQ: VPRT) with a Neutral. PT $54.

Collins analyst says, "VPRT has good long-term growth prospects due to: 1) geographic expansion (esp. in APAC); 2) category expansion (esp. in digital); 3) share gains from a low 3% share currently, with a lot of headroom to grow; 4) positive feedback cycle from high volume leading to low costs, which drive more volume; and 5) its ability to upsell/ cross-sell different products...Our concerns include: 1) weakening European economic environment; 2) increasing customer acquisition cost; 3) aggressive near-term investment by management to fuel long-term growth pressuring margins in F2012; 4) management may issue F2012 guidance lower than street expectations, affecting the stock price (even if it is due to conservatism); 5) the possibility that US small business recovery currently in progress may move slower than expected and 6) not enough margin of safety in the current valuation."
