Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“condensed consolidated financial statements”) include the accounts of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“EFI” or “Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements, and accounting policies consistent in all material respects with those applied in preparing our audited annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, 10-K”). 10-K. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Revenue Recognition Revenue from Contracts with Customers 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers 340-40”) Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606 and ASC 340-40, We recorded a net increase to our opening balance of retained earnings of $4.7 million as of January 1, 2018, after considering the income tax impact, due to the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 606. The adoption impact primarily related to capitalizing customer contract acquisition costs consisting of sales commissions, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue to reflect the inclusion of significant financing components that will be recognized as interest income as payments are received over the contractual terms, and upfront setup fees that will recognized ratably over the expected contractual terms. The cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 to active contracts as of the adoption date resulted in the following adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 1, 2018 (in thousands): As previously ASC 606 As Adjusted Assets Accounts receivable, net $ 244,416 $ 102 $ 244,518 Other current assets 41,799 (1,628 ) 40,171 Deferred tax assets 45,083 (1,466 ) 43,617 Other assets 15,504 8,062 23,566 Liabilities Deferred revenue 55,833 (95 ) 55,738 Noncurrent contingent and other liabilities 28,801 491 29,292 Stockholders’ equity: Retained earnings 402,544 4,674 407,218 The impact of adopting ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 Amounts in Amounts in Effect of change Revenue $ 239,866 $ 238,407 $ 1,459 Cost of revenue 120,759 120,817 (58 ) Gross profit 119,107 117,590 1,517 Operating expenses 121,172 121,033 139 Loss from operations (2,065 ) (3,443 ) 1,378 Interest expenses and other, net (3,665 ) (3,840 ) 175 Loss before income taxes (5,730 ) (7,283 ) 1,553 Benefit from income taxes 2,135 2,284 (149 ) Net loss (3,595 ) (4,999 ) 1,404 The impact of adopting ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 Amounts in Amounts in Effect of change Assets Accounts receivable, net $ 251,227 $ 250,188 $ 1,039 Other current assets 49,731 51,301 (1,570 ) Deferred tax assets 40,931 42,546 (1,615 ) Other assets 27,246 19,323 7,923 Liabilities Deferred revenue 68,912 69,705 (793 ) Noncurrent contingent and other liabilities 24,748 24,257 491 Stockholders’ equity: Retained earnings 403,623 397,544 6,079 Income Taxes Restricted Cash 2016-18, beginning-of-period end-of-period 2016-18, off-balance Reconciliation of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents (in thousands) March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Cash and cash equivalents $ 163,077 $ 170,345 $ 151,096 $ 164,313 Restricted cash equivalents 35,733 32,531 4,509 1,142 Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents shown in the statement of cash flows $ 198,810 $ 202,876 $ 155,605 $ 165,455 Definition of a Business 2017-01, 2017-01, 2017-01 Nonfinancial Asset Derecognition 2017-05, 2014-09) 2017-05 non-financial Stock Compensation Modification 2017-09, 2017-09 Settlement of Convertible Debt 2016-15, ASU 2016-15 2016-15 Recent Accounting Pronouncements Lease Arrangements 2016-02, right-of-use right-to-use The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous guidance. There continues to be a differentiation between finance leases and operating leases. The criteria for determining whether a lease is a finance or operating lease are substantially the same as existing guidance except that the “bright line” percentages have been removed. Also, an additional criterion has been added in the new guidance to consider whether the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Additional judgement will be required in applying the new lease guidance. • For finance leases, interest is recognized on the lease liability separately from depreciation of the right-of-use • For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize lease expense generally on a straight-line basis. All operating lease payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The current build-to-suit build-to-suit We have not quantified the impact, but the requirement to recognize a right-of-use Hedge Accounting 2017-12, Under current guidance, changes in the fair value of the effective portion of these contracts are reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified to operating expense in the periods of payment of the hedged cash flows. The ineffective portion is recognized as a component of interest income and other income, net. Under the new guidance, the entire change in the fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges that are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness will be recorded in OCI. Those amounts are reclassified to earnings in the periods of payment in the same income statement line item as the hedged operating expenses. Upon adoption, a cumulative-effect adjustment will be required for the ineffective portion of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges existing at the date of adoption to accumulated OCI with a corresponding adjustment to the retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of the adoption. The new guidance continues to require an initial prospective quantitative hedge effectiveness assessment unless the hedging relationship qualifies for the critical-terms-match method or facts and circumstances method, which permit an assumption of perfect hedge effectiveness. After the initial quantitative assessment, the new guidance permits a qualitative ongoing effectiveness assessment for certain hedges if we can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. The new guidance also requires additional disclosure related to the effect on the income statement of cash flow hedges. ASU 2017-12 Financial Instruments 2016-13, available-for-sale available-for-sale ASU 2016-13 available-for-sale Significant Accounting Policies There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our 2017 Form 10-K, Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. On January 1, 2018, we also adopted ASC 340-40 We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay. Judgments are made after considering a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience, current creditworthiness, current economic impacts on the customer, past due balances, and significant one-time For customer arrangements that include multiple products or services, judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price (“SSP”) for each distinct performance obligation. Where an observable price is not available, we gather all reasonable available data points, consider adjustments based on market conditions, entity-specific factors, and the need to stratify selling prices into meaningful groups (e.g., geographic region) in determining SSP. We allocate the total contract consideration to each distinct performance obligation on a relative SSP basis. Revenue is then recognized in accordance with the timing of the transfer of control to the customer. Accounting for long-term contracts where we provide information technology system development and implementation services requires significant judgment to estimate total contract revenue and costs. For long-term contracts, we estimate the profit on a contract as the difference between the total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete the services. We then recognize that revenue and profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that could span several years. A change in our estimate of total cost to complete could affect the profitability of our contracts. We review and update our contract-related estimates regularly, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that they are determined. Changes in estimates related to certain types of contracts accounted for using an input method measure of progress, such as cost-to-cost, catch-up Management exercises judgment to determine the period of benefit to amortize contract acquisition costs by considering factors such as expected renewals of customer contracts, duration of customer relationships and our technology development life cycle. Although we believe that the historical assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact our reported financial results. Amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs is included in sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. We periodically review these deferred costs to determine whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could impact the period of benefit of these deferred contract acquisition costs. The nature of our products and services are as follows: License Our software license arrangements are generally comprised of fixed license fees (“license fees”) that are payable upfront, annually, quarterly, or monthly based on negotiated customer payment terms. For software license arrangements in which a significant portion of the license fees are due more than 12 months after the software is delivered to the customer, a significant financing component may exist. The significant financing component is calculated as the difference between the stated value and present value of the software license fees and is recognized as interest income under the effective interest method over the contract term. The total software license fee net of the significant financing component is recognized as revenue at the point in time when the software is made available to the customer for download. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition and the timing of invoicing is one year or less, we follow the practical expedient and do not impute interest for these contracts. Maintenance Professional Services Software as a Service (“SaaS”) on-going As the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits as access is provided, our performance obligation under our SaaS-based arrangements is comprised of a series of distinct services delivered over time. Our SaaS-based arrangements may include fixed, variable, or a combination of fixed and variable consideration. Fixed consideration is recognized over the term of the arrangement. Variable consideration in these arrangements is typically a function of a tier-based pricing structure. Variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and allocated to each distinct service period within the series and revenue is recognized as each distinct service period is performed. Hardware trade-in We offer shipping and handling services to customers related to the sale of hardware. We have elected the practical expedient to account for shipping and handling activities performed after transferring control of goods to our customer as a cost to fulfill the contract. The cost of shipping and handling will be accrued at the point in which control transfers to the customer and revenue is recognized.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	Note 2. Earnings Per Share Net income per basic common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per diluted common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options having a dilutive effect using the treasury stock method, non-vested non-vested Performance-based and market-based restricted stock and stock options that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the vesting period, if the result would be dilutive, are assumed to be outstanding for purposes of determining net income per diluted common share as of the later of the beginning of the period or the grant date in accordance with ASC 260-10-45-48. non-GAAP Basic and diluted earnings per share during the periods presented below are reconciled as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): Three months ended March 31, 2018 2017 Basic net income per share: Net income (loss) available to common shareholders $ (3,595 ) $ 4,787 Weighted average common shares outstanding 45,030 46,551 Basic net income (loss) per share $ (0.08 ) $ 0.10 Diluted net income per share: Net income (loss) available to common shareholders $ (3,595 ) $ 4,787 Weighted average common shares outstanding 45,030 46,551 Diluted stock options and non-vested — 657 Weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted net income (loss) per share 45,030 47,208 Diluted net income (loss) per share $ (0.08 ) $ 0.10 Potential shares of common stock that were not included in the determination of diluted net income per share for the periods presented because the impact of including them would have been anti-dilutive or performance conditions have not been met, consisted of the following (in thousands): Three months ended March 31, 2018 2017 Options 69 — RSUs & PSUs 751 421 ESPP purchase rights 862 477 Total potential shares of common stock excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share 1,682 898 The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding does not include the effect of the potential common shares from conversion of our Notes and exercise of our warrants, which were issued in September 2014. The effects of these potentially outstanding shares were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive since the conversion price of the Notes and the strike price of the warrants exceeded the average market price of our common stock. We have the option to pay cash, issue shares of common stock, or any combination thereof for the aggregate amount due upon conversion of the Notes. Our intent is to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion. As a result, only amounts payable in excess of the principal amount of the Notes are considered in diluted net income per share under the treasury stock method. The Note Hedges are not included in the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect of any exercise of the Note Hedges would be anti-dilutive. Please refer to Note 6 – Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants for additional information and definitions.

We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if we expect the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. Sales commissions for renewal of a contract may not be commensurate with the commissions paid for the acquisition of the initial contract because commissions are generally not paid on the renewal of the specifically anticipated contract. Sales commissions for initial contracts are deferred and then amortized generally on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit that we have determined to be three to four years. We determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration our customer contracts, our technology, and other factors. Upon adoption of ASC 340-40 During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we amortized $1.1 million of deferred contract acquisition costs. There was no impairment loss in relation to costs capitalized. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, an additional $1.0 million of contract acquisition costs were capitalized. Deferred contract acquisition costs are included within other noncurrent assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred Cost of Revenue Deferred cost of revenue related to unrecognized revenue on shipments to customers was $1.4 and $3.5 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and is included in other current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Note 4. Revenue Recognition We derive our revenue primarily from product revenue, which includes industrial digital inkjet printers, including display graphics, ceramic tile decoration, and textile printers, ink, and parts; print production software; and Fiery DFEs. We receive service revenue from software maintenance and printer maintenance agreements, customer support, training, software development, and consulting. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers The following table presents our disaggregated revenue by source (in thousands, unaudited). Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenue.

Remaining performance obligations were $121.5 million as of March 31, 2018, of which we expect to recognize substantially all of the revenue over the next 12 months. Contract Balances Timing of revenue recognition may differ from timing of invoicing to customers. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type. Deferred revenue (contract liability) represents amounts received in advance, or invoiced in advance, for product support contracts, software customer support contracts, consulting and integration projects, SaaS arrangements, or product sales. We defer these amounts when we collect or invoice the customer and then generally recognize revenue either ratably over the support contract term, upon performing the related services, under the cost-to-cost Unbilled accounts receivable (contract assets) represents contract assets for revenue that have been recognized in advance of billing the customer, which is common for long-term contracts. Billing requirements vary by contract but are generally structured around the completion of certain development milestones. Unbilled accounts receivable at December 31, 2017, that were transferred to accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2018, was $12.8 million. The following table reflects the balances in our unbilled accounts receivable and our deferred revenue as of the periods presented below (in thousands): March 31, 2018 January 1, 2018 Unbilled accounts receivables - current $ 29,962 $ 27,419 Unbilled accounts receivables - noncurrent 9,381 7,678 Deferred revenue - current 68,912 55,738 Deferred revenue - noncurrent 552 565

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Investments and Fair Value Measurements	Note 5. Investments and Fair Value Measurements We invest our excess cash on deposit with major banks in money market, United States (“U.S.”) Treasury and government-sponsored entity, corporate, municipal government, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed residential debt securities. By policy, we invest primarily in high-grade marketable securities. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Typically, the cost of these investments has approximated fair value. Marketable investments with a maturity greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale Available-for-sale available-for-sale Amortized cost Gross unrealized gains Gross unrealized losses Fair value March 31, 2018 U.S. Government and sponsored entities $ 59,831 $ — $ (811 ) $ 59,020 Corporate debt securities 72,645 — (779 ) 71,866 Municipal securities 383 — (3 ) 380 Asset-backed securities 9,166 41 (87 ) 9,120 Mortgage-backed securities – residential 275 — (2 ) 273 Total short-term investments $ 142,300 $ 41 $ (1,682 ) $ 140,659 December 31, 2017 U.S. Government and sponsored entities $ 59,824 $ — $ (660 ) $ 59,164 Corporate debt securities 79,356 — (450 ) 78,906 Municipal securities 382 — (2 ) 380 Asset-backed securities 9,808 44 (47 ) 9,805 Mortgage-backed securities – residential 445 — (3 ) 442 Total short-term investments $ 149,815 $ 44 $ (1,162 ) $ 148,697 The fair value and duration that investments, including cash equivalents, have been in a gross unrealized loss position as of the periods presented below are as follows (in thousands): Less than 12 Months More than 12 Months TOTAL Fair Value Unrealized Fair Value Unrealized Fair Value Unrealized March 31, 2018 U.S. Government and sponsored entities $ 22,912 $ (319 ) $ 35,948 $ (491 ) $ 58,860 $ (810 ) Corporate debt securities 37,448 (394 ) 34,090 (386 ) 71,538 (780 ) Municipal securities 377 (3 ) — — 377 (3 ) Asset-backed securities 6,317 (64 ) 2,728 (23 ) 9,045 (87 ) Mortgage-backed securities – residential 106 (1 ) 144 (1 ) 250 (2 ) Total $ 67,160 $ (781 ) $ 72,910 $ (901 ) $ 140,070 $ (1,682 ) December 31, 2017 U.S. Government and sponsored entities $ 23,023 $ (206 ) $ 35,989 $ (454 ) $ 59,012 $ (660 ) Corporate debt securities 45,857 (207 ) 32,634 (243 ) 78,491 (450 ) Municipal securities 378 (2 ) — — 378 (2 ) Asset-backed securities 6,779 (31 ) 2,947 (16 ) 9,726 (47 ) Mortgage-backed securities – residential 162 (2 ) 142 (1 ) 304 (3 ) Total $ 76,199 $ (448 ) $ 71,712 $ (714 ) $ 147,911 $ (1,162 ) For fixed income securities that have unrealized losses as of March 31, 2018, we have determined that we do not have the intent to sell any of these investments and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. We have evaluated these fixed income securities and determined that no credit losses exist. Accordingly, management has determined that the unrealized losses on our fixed income securities as of March 31, 2018, were temporary in nature. Amortized cost and estimated fair value of investments as of March 31, 2018, are summarized by maturity date as follows (in thousands): Amortized cost Fair value Mature in less than one year $ 56,666 $ 56,348 Mature in one to three years 85,634 84,311 Total short-term investments $ 142,300 $ 140,659 Net realized gains from sales of investments of less than $0.1 million were recognized in interest income and other income, net, during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net unrealized losses of $1.6 and $1.1 million were included in OCI in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively. Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy as follows: Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date; Level 2: Inputs that are other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life or by comparison to similar instruments; and Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable or reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. These include management’s own judgments about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. We utilize the market approach to measure the fair value of our fixed income securities. The market approach is a valuation technique that uses the prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The fair value of our fixed income securities is obtained using readily-available market prices from a variety of industry standard data providers, large financial institutions, and other third-party sources for the identical underlying securities. The fair value of our investments in certain money market funds is expected to maintain a net asset value of $1 per share and, as such, is priced at the expected market price. We obtain the fair value of our Level 2 financial instruments from several third-party asset managers, custodian banks, and the accounting service providers. Independently, these service providers use professional pricing services to gather pricing data, which may include quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. As part of this process, we engaged a pricing service to assist management in its pricing analysis and assessment of other-than-temporary impairment. All estimates, key assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we chose to utilize a third-party pricing service, the impairment analysis and related valuations represent conclusions of management and not conclusions or statements of any third party. Our investments and liabilities measured at fair value have been presented in accordance with the fair value hierarchy specified in ASC 820, as of the periods presented below, in order of liquidity as follows (in thousands): Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) March 31, 2018 Assets: Money market funds $ 6,228 $ 6,228 $ — $ — U.S. Government and sponsored entities 59,020 33,207 25,813 — Corporate debt securities 71,866 — 71,866 — Municipal securities 380 — 380 — Asset-backed securities 9,120 — 9,072 48 Mortgage-backed securities – residential 273 — 273 — $ 146,887 $ 39,435 $ 107,404 $ 48 Liabilities: Contingent consideration, current and noncurrent $ 33,995 $ — $ — $ 33,995 Self-insurance 1,247 — — 1,247 $ 35,242 $ — $ — $ 35,242 December 31, 2017 Assets: Money market funds $ 9,897 $ 9,897 $ — $ — U.S. Government and sponsored entities 59,164 33,261 25,903 — Corporate debt securities 78,906 — 78,906 — Municipal securities 380 — 380 — Asset-backed securities 9,805 — 9,754 51 Mortgage-backed securities – residential 442 — 442 — $ 158,594 $ 43,158 $ 115,385 $ 51 Liabilities: Contingent consideration, current and noncurrent $ 35,702 $ — $ — $ 35,702 Self-insurance 902 — — 902 $ 36,604 $ — $ — $ 36,604 Money market funds have been classified as cash equivalents as of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively. Investments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and overnight money market mutual funds have been classified as Level 1 because these securities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets or are actively traded at $1.00 net asset value. There have been no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Government agency investments and corporate debt instruments, including investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, have generally been classified as Level 2 because markets for these securities are less active or valuations for such securities utilize significant inputs, which are directly or indirectly observable. We hold asset-backed securities with income payments derived from and collateralized by a specified pool of underlying assets. Asset-backed securities in the portfolio are predominantly collateralized by credit cards and auto loans. We also hold two asset-backed securities collateralized by mortgage loans, which have been fully reserved. Liabilities for Contingent Consideration Acquisition-related liabilities for contingent consideration (i.e., earnouts) are related to the purchase business combinations of Escada Innovations Limited and Escada Systems, Inc. (collectively, “Escada”) and Generation Digital Solutions, Inc. (“Generation Digital”), in 2017; Optitex Ltd. (“Optitex”) and Rialco Limited (“Rialco”) in 2016; Shuttleworth Business Systems Limited and CDM Solutions Limited (collectively, “Shuttleworth”), CTI, and Reggiani Macchine SpA (“Reggiani”) in 2015; and PrintLeader Software (“PrintLeader”) in 2013. The fair value of these earnouts is estimated to be $34.0 and $35.7 million as of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively, by applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5. 820-10-35 Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are summarized as follows (in thousands): Liability for Contingent Consideration Fair value of contingent consideration at January 1, 2017 $ 56,463 Fair value of Generation Digital contingent consideration at August 14, 2017 3,600 Fair value of Escada contingent consideration at October 1, 2017 2,049 Escrow adjustment for Reggiani acquisition (4,711 ) Changes in valuation 4,761 Earnout accretion 1,711 Payments and settlements (30,924 ) Foreign currency adjustment 2,753 Fair value of contingent consideration at December 31, 2017 $ 35,702 Changes in valuation (1,459 ) Earnout accretion 230 Payments (724 ) Foreign currency adjustment 246 Fair value of contingent consideration at March 31, 2018 $ 33,995 The Generation Digital and Shuttleworth earnout performance probabilities decreased in 2018 based on recent actual and updated forecasted financial performance. The Optitex, CTI and Rialco earnout performance probabilities increased during 2017, while the Shuttleworth earnout performance probability decreased. In accordance with ASC 805-30-35-1, Earnout payments and settlements during the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $0.7 million are primarily related to the previously accrued Shuttleworth contingent consideration liability. Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2017 of $21.5, $6.8, $1.3, and $1.2 million were primarily related to the previously accrued Reggiani, Optitex, Rialco, and Shuttleworth contingent consideration liabilities, respectively. The primary inputs to the fair value measurement of contingent consideration liability are the discount rate and probability-adjusted revenue or earnings targets specified in the acquisition agreements. Accordingly, we reviewed the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in these inputs. We assessed the probability of achieving the revenue performance targets for contingent consideration associated with each acquisition at percentage levels between 50% and 100% as of each respective acquisition date based on an assessment of the historical performance of each acquired entity, our current expectations of future performance, and other relevant factors. A change in probability-adjusted revenue of five percentage points from the level assumed in the current valuations would result in an increase in the fair value of contingent consideration of $1.8 million or a decrease in the fair value of contingent consideration of $2.3 million, resulting in a corresponding adjustment to general and administrative expense. A change in the discount rate of one percentage point would result in an increase in the fair value of contingent consideration of $0.3 million or a decrease of $0.3 million. The potential undiscounted amount of future contingent consideration cash payments that we could be required to make related to our business acquisitions, beyond amounts currently accrued, is $10.6 million as of March 31, 2018. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments We utilize the income approach to measure the fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates, and forward prices, and are therefore classified as Level 2 measurements. The notional amount of our derivative assets and liabilities was $243.5 and $239.4 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We did not have any cash flow hedges as of March 31, 2018. The fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities that were designated for cash flow hedge accounting treatment having notional amounts of $3.9 million as of December 31, 2017 was not material. Fair Value of Convertible Senior Notes In September 2014, we issued $345 million aggregate principal amount of our Notes. The Notes are carried at their original issuance value, net of unamortized debt discount, and are not marked to market each period. The fair value of the Notes as of March 31, 2018 was approximately $334.7 million and was considered a Level 2 fair value measurement. Fair value was estimated based upon actual quotations obtained at the end of the reporting period or the most recent date available. A substantial portion of the market value of our Notes in excess of the outstanding principal amount relates to the conversion premium.

Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants	Note 6. Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 In September 2014, we completed a private placement of $345 million principal amount of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due September 1, 2019. The Notes were sold to the initial purchasers for resale to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds from this offering were approximately $336.3 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ commissions and the offering expenses paid by us. We used approximately $29.4 million of the net proceeds to purchase the Note Hedges described below, net of the proceeds from the Warrant transactions also described below. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of EFI with interest payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2015. The Notes are not callable and will mature on September 1, 2019, unless previously purchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Holders of the Notes who convert in connection with a “fundamental change,” as defined in the indenture governing the Notes (“Indenture”), may require us to purchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The initial conversion rate is 18.9667 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $52.72 per share of common stock. Upon conversion of the Notes, holders will receive cash, shares of common stock or a combination thereof, at our election. Our intent is to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion. If the conversion value exceeds the principal amount, we would deliver shares of our common stock for our conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount. As of March 31, 2018, none of the conditions listed below allowing holders of the Notes to convert had been met. Throughout the term of the Notes, the conversion rate may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events. Holders of the Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion of a Note. Holders may convert their Notes only under the following circumstances: • if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; • during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (“Notes Measurement Period”) in which the “trading price” (as the term is defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each trading day of such Notes Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported stock price on such trading day and the conversion rate on each such trading day; • upon the occurrence of specified corporate events; or • at any time on or after March 1, 2019 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. We separated the Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the estimated fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the face value of the Notes as a whole. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of 4.98% per annum (5.46% inclusive of debt issuance costs). The equity component is not remeasured if it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. We allocated the total transaction costs incurred by the Notes issuance to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Issuance costs of $7.0 million attributable to the $281.4 million liability component are being amortized to expense over the term of the Notes, and issuance costs of $1.6 million attributable to the $63.6 million equity component were offset against the equity component in stockholders’ equity. Additionally, we recorded a deferred tax liability of $23.7 million on the debt discount, which is not deductible for tax purposes. The Notes consist of the following as of the periods presented below (in thousands): March 31, December 31, 2018 2017 Liability component $ 345,000 $ 345,000 Debt discount, net of amortization (19,823 ) (23,178 ) Debt issuance costs, net of amortization (2,468 ) (2,865 ) Net carrying amount $ 322,709 $ 318,957 Equity component $ 63,643 $ 63,643 Less: debt issuance costs allocated to equity (1,582 ) (1,582 ) Net carrying amount $ 62,061 $ 62,061 Interest expenses recognized related to the Notes during the periods presented below were as follows (in thousands): Three months ended March 31, March 31, 2018 2017 0.75% coupon $ 647 $ 640 Amortization of debt discount 3,355 3,142 Amortization of debt issuance costs 397 374 Total $ 4,399 $ 4,156 Note Hedges We paid an aggregate of $63.9 million in convertible note hedge transactions with respect to our common stock (“Note Hedges”) in September 2014. The Note Hedges will expire upon maturity of the Notes. The Note Hedges are intended to offset the potential dilution upon conversion and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount upon conversion of the Notes in the event that the market value per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the Note Hedges, is greater than the strike price of the Note Hedges. The strike price of the Note Hedges initially corresponds to the conversion price of the Notes and is subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion price of the Notes. The Note Hedges are separate transactions and are not part of the Notes. Holders of the Notes will not have any rights with respect to the Note Hedges. Warrants Concurrently with entering into the Note Hedges, we separately entered into warrant transactions (“Warrants”), whereby we sold Warrants to acquire shares of our common stock at a strike price of $68.86 per share. We received aggregate proceeds of $34.5 million from the sale of the Warrants. If the average market value per share of our common stock for the reporting period, as measured under the Warrants, exceeds the strike price of the Warrants, the Warrants will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share. The Warrants are separate transactions and are not part of the Notes or the Note Hedges and are accounted for as a component of additional paid-in

Income taxes	Note 7. Income taxes We recognized a tax benefit of $2.1 and $1.0 million on pretax loss of $5.7 million and pretax income of $3.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The benefits and provisions for income taxes before discrete items reflected in the table below were $3.4 and $1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in the provisions for income taxes before discrete items for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with the same periods in the prior year, is primarily due to decreased profitability before income taxes. Primary differences between our provision for income taxes before discrete items and the income tax provision at the U.S. statutory rate include taxes on permanently reinvested foreign earnings, the tax effects of stock-based compensation expense pursuant to ASC 718-740, non-deductible Our tax provision for (benefit from) income taxes before discrete items are reconciled to our recorded benefit from income taxes, for the periods presented below, as follows (in thousands): Three months ended March 31, 2018 2017 Provision for (benefit from) income taxes before discrete items $ (3,420 ) $ 1,096 Interest related to unrecognized tax benefits 112 34 Benefit related to stock based compensation, including ESPP dispositions (24 ) (1,568 ) Benefit from reversals of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions (150 ) — Benefit from reassessment of taxes upon filing tax returns — (85 ) Benefit from reassessment of taxes upon tax law change 161 (494 ) Provision for deemed repatriation transition tax 1,222 — Benefit from income taxes $ (2,099 ) $ (1,017 ) On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Act was enacted by the U.S. government. The 2017 Tax Act made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code that impact the three months ended March 31, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017, including, but not limited to lowering the U.S. corporate income tax from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, imposing a one-time pre-tax The SEC issued SAB 118, which allows us to record a provisional estimate of the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act in the period in which we can make a reasonable estimate of its effects. We have recorded a $27.5 million tax charge in the year ended December 31, 2017 as a provisional estimate. This includes an estimated charge of $17.0 million related to the deemed repatriation transition tax, which is comprised of a gross transition tax of $27.0 million offset by foreign tax credits of $10.0 million. In addition, we recorded a $10.5 million charge related to the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities in the year ended December 31, 2017. While we have calculated a reasonable estimate of the impact of the U.S. tax rate reduction and the amount of the deemed repatriation transition tax, we are gathering additional information to refine and finalize our calculation of the impacts of the 2017 Tax Act on our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities, the deemed repatriation transition tax, and other provisions associated with the 2017 Tax Act. We accrued an additional $1.2 million for state taxes related to the deemed repatriation transition tax in the three months ended March 31, 2018. As we obtain additional information, we will record adjustments in subsequent periods and will finalize the calculation of the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act in the fourth quarter of 2018, or in an earlier quarter if our analysis is complete. The 2017 Tax Act also created a global intangible low-tax As of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, gross unrecognized benefits that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized were $32.8 and $33.9 million, respectively. Over the next twelve months, our existing tax positions will continue to generate increased liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. It is reasonably possible that our gross unrecognized tax benefits will decrease up to $4.4 million in the next twelve months. These adjustments, if recognized, would positively impact our effective tax rate, and would be recognized as additional tax benefits in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In accordance with ASU 2013-11, We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the 2014-2016 tax years, state tax jurisdictions for the 2013-2016 tax years, the Netherlands tax authority for the 2014-2016 tax years, the Spanish tax authority for the 2013-2016 tax years, the Israel tax authority for the 2014-2016 tax years, and the Italian tax authority for the 2013-2016 tax years.

We are required to pay property taxes, insurance, and nominal maintenance costs for certain of these facilities and vehicles, and any increases over the base year of these expenses on the remainder of our facilities and vehicle leases. Assets Held for Sale During the fourth quarter of 2017, management approved a plan to sell approximately 31.5 acres of land and two manufacturing buildings located at One Vutek Place and 189 Waukewan Street, Meredith, New Hampshire, consisting of 163,000 total square feet. Assets previously recorded within property and equipment, net, of $5.1 million consisting of $4.5 million net book value of the facilities and $0.6 million of related land have been reclassified as assets held for sale in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018. Management has entered into an agreement to sell a portion of these facilities subject to due diligence and customary closing procedures. Management expects the sale of both of these facilities to be completed by December 31, 2018. Off-Balance On August 26, 2016, we entered into a lease agreement and have accounted for a lease term of 48.5 years, inclusive of two renewal options of 5.0 and 3.5 years, with the City of Manchester to lease 16.9 acres adjacent to the Manchester Regional Airport. The land is subleased to MUFG Americas Capital Leasing & Finance, LLC (“MUFG”), formerly Bank of Tokyo – Mitsubishi UFJ Leasing & Finance LLC during the term of the lease related to the manufacturing facility that is being constructed on the site, which is described below. Minimum lease payments are $13.3 million during the entire 48.5-year On August 26, 2016, we entered into a six-year 225,000-square six-year six-year During the construction period, we are required under the terms of our agreement with MUFG to maintain restricted cash equivalents or restricted investments equal to the amount expended to date on the construction of the building. The funds are invested in $35.7 million of cash equivalents with a third-party trustee and are restricted during the construction period. Upon completion of construction, the funds will be released as cash and cash equivalents. The portion of released funds that represents 100% of the total expenditures made by MUFG will be deposited with MUFG and restricted as collateral until the end of the underlying lease period. We have determined that the lease agreement does not qualify as a variable interest entity under ASC 810-10, Legal Proceedings We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, or proceedings relating to contractual disputes, securities laws, intellectual property rights, employment, or other matters that may arise in the normal course of business. We assess our potential liability in each of these matters by using the information available to us. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. We accrue estimated losses from contingencies if a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. As of March 31, 2018, we are subject to the matters discussed below: Matan Digital Printing (“MDG”) Matter EFI acquired Matan Digital Printers (“Matan”) in 2015 from sellers (the “2015 Sellers”) that acquired Matan Digital Printing Ltd. from other sellers in 2001 (the “2001 Sellers”). The 2001 Sellers have asserted a claim against the 2015 Sellers and Matan asserting that they are entitled to a portion of the 2015 Sellers’ proceeds from EFI’s acquisition. The 2015 Sellers dispute this claim and have agreed to indemnify EFI against the 2001 Sellers’ claim. Although we are fully indemnified and we do not believe that it is probable that we will incur a loss, it is reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of this matter. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that we could incur a material loss in this matter. We estimate the range of loss to be between one dollar and $10.1 million. If we incur a loss in this matter, it will be offset by a receivable of an equal amount representing a claim for indemnification against the escrow account established in connection with the Matan acquisition. Purported Class Action Lawsuit On August 10, 2017, a putative class action was filed against the Company and its two named executive officers in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, captioned Pipitone v. Electronics For Imaging, Inc 2:17-cv-05992 At this time, we do not believe it is probable that we will incur a material loss in this matter. However, it is reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of this matter. Because this matter is in the preliminary stages, we are not yet in a position to estimate the amount or range of reasonably possible loss that may be incurred. Purported Derivative Shareholder Lawsuits On August 22, 2017, a purported derivative shareholder complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Alameda captioned Schiffmiller v. Gecht Pipitone At this time, we do not believe it is probable that we will incur a material loss in this matter. However, it is reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of this matter. Because this matter has been stayed pending resolution of the Pipitone Other Matters As of March 31, 2018, we were subject to various other claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings in addition to the matter discussed above. There is at least a reasonable possibility that additional losses may be incurred in excess of the amounts that we have accrued. However, we believe that these claims are not material to our financial statements or the range of reasonably possible losses is not reasonably estimable. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and while we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against us, our financial statements could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies or because of the diversion of management’s attention and the incurrence of significant expenses.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives and Hedging	Note 10. Derivatives and Hedging We are exposed to market risk and foreign currency exchange risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which could affect operating results, financial position, and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through use of derivative financial instruments. These derivative financial instruments are used to hedge monetary assets and liabilities, intercompany balances, trade receivables, anticipated cash flows, and to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility resulting from shifts in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with losses and gains on the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or protecting fair values of assets and liabilities. We do not have any leveraged derivatives, nor do we use derivative contracts for speculative purposes. ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires the fair value of all derivative instruments, including those embedded in other contracts, to be recorded as assets or liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The related cash flow impacts of our derivative contracts are reflected as cash flows from operating activities. Our exposures are primarily related to non-U.S. non-U.S. By their nature, derivative instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of market and credit risk. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from currency exchange movement is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets, and liabilities being hedged (e.g. operating expenses; the collection of trade receivables denominated in currencies other than their respective reporting entity’s functional currency, and the settlement of intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than their functional currency). Under our master netting agreements with our foreign currency derivative counterparties, we are allowed to net transactions of the same currency with a single net amount payable by one party to the other. The derivatives held by us are not subject to any credit contingent features negotiated with these counterparties. We are not required to pledge cash collateral related to these foreign currency derivative contracts. We do not believe there is significant risk of loss from non-performance Cash Flow Hedges We did not have any foreign currency derivative contracts designated as a cash flow hedge as of March 31, 2018. Our foreign currency derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges for our Indian rupee operating expense were in the notional amounts of $3.9 million as of December 31, 2017. The fair value of the net assets (liabilities) related to these cash flow hedges are not material. The changes in fair value of these contracts are reported as a component of OCI and reclassified to operating expense in the periods of payment of the hedged operating expenses. The amount of ineffectiveness that was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for these designated cash flow hedges was immaterial. All components of each derivative’s gain or loss were included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Balance Sheet Hedges Forward contracts not designated for hedge accounting treatment with notional amounts of $243.5 and $235.5 million are used to hedge foreign currency balance sheet exposures at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. They are not designated for hedge accounting treatment since there is a natural offset for the remeasurement of the underlying foreign currency denominated asset or liability. We recognize changes in the fair value of non-designated These balance sheet hedges cover currency exposures in the following line items in the notional amounts indicated (in thousands): March 31, December 31, Balance sheet categories 2018 2017 Accounts Receivable $ 52,130 $ 44,427 Other assets and liabilities, net 34,109 46,550 Intercompany balances 157,247 144,477 Total $ 243,486 $ 235,454

Restructuring and Other During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we continue to analyze our cost structure and re-align Non-Retirement Restructuring and other costs were $4.7 and $0.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Restructuring and other costs include severance charges of $3.0 and $0.4 million related to reductions in head count of 55 and 18 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Severance costs include severance payments, related employee benefits, outplacement fees, recruiting, and employee relocation costs. Facilities relocation and downsizing expenses were $0.5 and $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, primarily related to the relocation of certain manufacturing and administrative locations due to reduced space requirements. Integration expenses of $1.1 and $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were required to integrate our business acquisitions.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-based Compensation	Note 12. Stock-based Compensation We account for stock-based payment awards in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all equity awards granted to our employees and directors, including RSUs, ESPP purchase rights, and employee stock options related to all stock-based compensation plans based on the fair value of such awards on the date of grant. We amortize stock-based compensation cost on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period reduced by actual forfeitures, after assessing the probability of achieving the requisite performance criteria with respect to performance-based awards. Stock-based compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of the award as though the award were, in substance, multiple awards. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, ESPP purchase rights, and RSUs during the periods presented below is summarized as follows (in thousands): Three months ended March 31, 2018 2017 Stock-based compensation expense by type of awards RSUs $ 5,324 $ 9,237 ESPP purchase rights 1,446 1,043 Total stock-based compensation 6,770 10,280 Income tax benefit (858 ) (2,873 ) Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax $ 5,912 $ 7,407 Valuation Assumptions for Stock Options and ESPP Purchase Rights We use the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option pricing model to value stock-based compensation for all equity awards, except market-based awards, which are valued using the Monte Carlo valuation model. We value RSUs at the market price on the date of grant. Stock options were not granted during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. The estimated weighted average fair value per share of ESPP purchase rights issued and the underlying weighted average assumptions for the periods presented below are as follows: Three months ended March 31, 2018 2017 Weighted average fair value per share $ 9.03 $ 12.03 Expected volatility 59% - 107 % 24% - 28 % Risk-free interest rate 1.6% - 2.2 % 0.7% - 1.2 % Expected term (in years) 0.5 - 2.0 0.5 - 2.0 As of March 31, 2018, 150,000 shares underlying stock options are outstanding and exercisable. They are time-based options with an aggregate intrinsic value of $1.8 million, weighted average exercise price of $15.43 per share, and the remaining contractual term of 1.03 years. Aggregate intrinsic value for stock options represents the difference between the closing price per share of our common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal period and the option exercise price multiplied by the number of in-the-money Non-vested Non-vested Non-vested non-vested Non-vested Non-vested Time-based Performance-based Market-based Total Shares Weighted average grant date fair value Shares Weighted average grant date fair value Shares Weighted average grant date fair value Shares Weighted average grant date fair value Non-vested 1,048 $ 35.76 1,209 $ 42.18 23 $ 35.15 2,280 $ 39.16 Granted 138 28.84 363 28.59 — — 501 28.66 Vested (27 ) 35.75 (12 ) 44.08 — — (39 ) 38.28 Forfeited (44 ) 35.68 (562 ) 45.72 — — (606 ) 44.94 Non-vested 1,115 34.90 998 35.23 23 35.15 2,136 35.07 Vested RSUs The grant date fair value of RSUs vested during the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $1.5 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of RSUs vested and expected to vest at March 31, 2018 was $38.3 million and the remaining weighted average vesting period was 1.22 years. Aggregate intrinsic value for RSUs vested and expected to vest represents the closing price per share of our common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal period, multiplied by the number of RSUs vested and expected to vest as of March 31, 2018. RSUs expected to vest represent time-based RSUs unvested and outstanding at March 31, 2018, and performance-based RSUs for which the requisite service period has not been rendered, but are expected to vest based on the achievement of performance conditions. Performance-based RSUs that vested based on annual financial results are expensed in the period that the performance and related service criteria were met. Valuation Assumptions for Performance-based and Market-based RSUs Performance-based stock options, market-based RSUs, and market-based stock options were not granted during the three months ended March 31, 2018. We use the BSM option pricing model to value performance-based RSUs. The weighted average grant date fair value per share of performance-based RSUs granted and the assumptions used to estimate grant date fair value during the periods presented below are as follows: Short-term Long-term Three months ended March 31, 2018 Grants Grant date fair value per share $ 28.59 $ — Service period (years) 1.0 N/A Three months ended March 31, 2017 Grants Grant date fair value per share $ 47.28 $ 45.89 Service period (years) 1.0 2.0 - 3.0 Our performance-based RSUs generally vest when specified performance criteria are met based on bookings, revenue, cash provided by operating activities, non-GAAP non-GAAP non-GAAP Non-GAAP Non-GAAP Non-GAAP The grant date fair value per share determined in accordance with the BSM valuation model is being amortized over the service period of the performance-based awards. The probability of achieving the awards was determined based on review of the actual results achieved thus far by each business unit compared with the operating plan during the pertinent service period as well as the overall strength of the business unit. Stock-based compensation expense was adjusted based on this probability assessment. As actual results are achieved during the service period, the probability assessment is updated and stock-based compensation expense adjusted accordingly. Market-based awards that were granted in prior periods vest when our average closing stock price exceeds defined multiples of the closing stock price for 90 consecutive trading days. If these multiples were not achieved by the expiration date, the awards are forfeited. The grant date fair value is being amortized over the average derived service period of the awards. The average derived service period and total fair value were determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model based on our assumptions, which include a risk-free interest rate and implied volatility.

Common Stock Repurchase Programs	Note 13. Common Stock Repurchase Programs On November 9, 2015, the board of directors approved the repurchase of $150 million of outstanding common stock commencing January 1, 2016. On September 11, 2017, the board of directors approved the repurchase of an additional $125 million for our share repurchase program commencing September 11, 2017. At that time, $28.8 million remained available for repurchase under the 2015 authorization. The 2017 authorization thereby increased the repurchase authorization to $153.8 million of our common stock. This authorization expires December 31, 2018. Under this publicly announced plan, we repurchased 0.6 and 0.4 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $17.4 and $17.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, $92.0 million remained available for repurchase under this authorization. Our employees have the option to surrender shares of common stock to satisfy their tax withholding obligations that arise on the vesting of RSUs. In connection with stock option exercises, certain employees can surrender shares to satisfy the exercise price of certain stock options and any tax withholding obligations incurred in connection with such exercises. Employees surrendered less than 0.1 million and 0.1 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.2 and $5.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These repurchased shares reduce shares outstanding and are recorded as treasury stock under the cost method thereby reducing stockholders’ equity by the cost of the repurchased shares. Our repurchase program is limited by SEC regulations and is subject to compliance with our insider trading policy.

Accounts Receivable Financing Receivables ASC 310, Receivables, requires disclosure regarding the credit quality of our financing receivables and allowance for credit losses including disclosure of credit quality indicators, past due information, and modifications of our financing receivables. Our financing receivables of $38.0 and $28.7 million consisting of $23.7 and $16.6 million of sales-type lease receivables, included within other current assets and other assets at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and $14.2 and $12.1 million of trade receivables having an original contractual maturity in excess of one year, included within accounts receivable, net of allowance, at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The trade receivables of $14.2 and $12.1 million having an original total contractual maturity in excess of one year at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, include $4.9 and $4.4 million, respectively, which are scheduled to be received in less than one year. The credit quality of financing receivables is evaluated on the same basis as trade receivables. We do not have material past due financing receivables. Accounts Receivable Sales Arrangements In accordance with ASC 860-20, We have facilities in the U.S. and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade receivables with recourse. Trade receivables sold with recourse are generally short-term receivables with payment due dates of less than 10 days from the date of sale, which are subject to a servicing obligation. Trade receivables sold under these facilities were $3.2 and $21.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, and the year ended December 31, 2017, which approximates the cash received. We have facilities in Spain and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade receivables without recourse. Trade receivables sold without recourse are generally short-term receivables with payment due dates of less than one year, which are secured by international letters of credit. Trade receivables sold under these facilities were $1.3 and $5.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, and the year ended December 31, 2017, which approximates the cash received. We report collections from the sale of trade receivables to third parties as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

License Agreement On November 1, 2017 (“Effective Date”), we entered into an agreement with Xeikon (the Agreement), which is a division of the Flint Group headquartered in Luxembourg to license the rights to the manufacturing, technology, marketing, and support of the Jetrion business. Pursuant to the Agreement, we provided Xeikon access to the Jetrion customer list and enabled Xeikon to assume the relationship with the third-party outsourcing company that manufactured Jetrion printers for us and resell the printers to our current customer base. Xeikon will purchase UV label ink exclusively from us and resell to both our current customer base as well as new Xeikon inkjet customers. Per the terms of the Agreement, we agreed to cease sales of Jetrion products for four years after the Effective Date. We received cash consideration of $2.0 million during 2017, and will receive annual volume-based royalty payments based on Xeikon’s ink purchases from us through October 31, 2021. Volume-based royalty payments from Xeikon’s ink purchases are recognized as revenue ratably over four years.

The adoption impact primarily related to capitalizing customer contract acquisition costs consisting of sales commissions, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue to reflect the inclusion of significant financing components that will be recognized as interest income as payments are received over the contractual terms, and upfront setup fees that will recognized ratably over the expected contractual terms. The cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 to active contracts as of the adoption date resulted in the following adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 1, 2018 (in thousands): As previously ASC 606 As Adjusted Assets Accounts receivable, net $ 244,416 $ 102 $ 244,518 Other current assets 41,799 (1,628 ) 40,171 Deferred tax assets 45,083 (1,466 ) 43,617 Other assets 15,504 8,062 23,566 Liabilities Deferred revenue 55,833 (95 ) 55,738 Noncurrent contingent and other liabilities 28,801 491 29,292 Stockholders’ equity: Retained earnings 402,544 4,674 407,218 The impact of adopting ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 Amounts in Amounts in Effect of change Revenue $ 239,866 $ 238,407 $ 1,459 Cost of revenue 120,759 120,817 (58 ) Gross profit 119,107 117,590 1,517 Operating expenses 121,172 121,033 139 Loss from operations (2,065 ) (3,443 ) 1,378 Interest expenses and other, net (3,665 ) (3,840 ) 175 Loss before income taxes (5,730 ) (7,283 ) 1,553 Benefit from income taxes 2,135 2,284 (149 ) Net loss (3,595 ) (4,999 ) 1,404 The impact of adopting ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 Amounts in Amounts in Effect of change Assets Accounts receivable, net $ 251,227 $ 250,188 $ 1,039 Other current assets 49,731 51,301 (1,570 ) Deferred tax assets 40,931 42,546 (1,615 ) Other assets 27,246 19,323 7,923 Liabilities Deferred revenue 68,912 69,705 (793 ) Noncurrent contingent and other liabilities 24,748 24,257 491 Stockholders’ equity: Retained earnings 403,623 397,544 6,079 Income Taxes Restricted Cash 2016-18, beginning-of-period end-of-period 2016-18, off-balance Reconciliation of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents (in thousands) March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Cash and cash equivalents $ 163,077 $ 170,345 $ 151,096 $ 164,313 Restricted cash equivalents 35,733 32,531 4,509 1,142 Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents shown in the statement of cash flows $ 198,810 $ 202,876 $ 155,605 $ 165,455 Definition of a Business 2017-01, 2017-01, 2017-01 Nonfinancial Asset Derecognition 2017-05, 2014-09) 2017-05 non-financial Stock Compensation Modification 2017-09, 2017-09 Settlement of Convertible Debt 2016-15, ASU 2016-15 2016-15 Recent Accounting Pronouncements Lease Arrangements 2016-02, right-of-use right-to-use The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous guidance. There continues to be a differentiation between finance leases and operating leases. The criteria for determining whether a lease is a finance or operating lease are substantially the same as existing guidance except that the “bright line” percentages have been removed. Also, an additional criterion has been added in the new guidance to consider whether the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Additional judgement will be required in applying the new lease guidance. • For finance leases, interest is recognized on the lease liability separately from depreciation of the right-of-use • For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize lease expense generally on a straight-line basis. All operating lease payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The current build-to-suit build-to-suit We have not quantified the impact, but the requirement to recognize a right-of-use Hedge Accounting 2017-12, Under current guidance, changes in the fair value of the effective portion of these contracts are reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified to operating expense in the periods of payment of the hedged cash flows. The ineffective portion is recognized as a component of interest income and other income, net. Under the new guidance, the entire change in the fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges that are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness will be recorded in OCI. Those amounts are reclassified to earnings in the periods of payment in the same income statement line item as the hedged operating expenses. Upon adoption, a cumulative-effect adjustment will be required for the ineffective portion of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges existing at the date of adoption to accumulated OCI with a corresponding adjustment to the retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of the adoption. The new guidance continues to require an initial prospective quantitative hedge effectiveness assessment unless the hedging relationship qualifies for the critical-terms-match method or facts and circumstances method, which permit an assumption of perfect hedge effectiveness. After the initial quantitative assessment, the new guidance permits a qualitative ongoing effectiveness assessment for certain hedges if we can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. The new guidance also requires additional disclosure related to the effect on the income statement of cash flow hedges.

Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606 340-40 We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay. Judgments are made after considering a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience, current creditworthiness, current economic impacts on the customer, past due balances, and significant one-time For customer arrangements that include multiple products or services, judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price (“SSP”) for each distinct performance obligation. Where an observable price is not available, we gather all reasonable available data points, consider adjustments based on market conditions, entity-specific factors, and the need to stratify selling prices into meaningful groups (e.g., geographic region) in determining SSP. We allocate the total contract consideration to each distinct performance obligation on a relative SSP basis. Revenue is then recognized in accordance with the timing of the transfer of control to the customer. Accounting for long-term contracts where we provide information technology system development and implementation services requires significant judgment to estimate total contract revenue and costs. For long-term contracts, we estimate the profit on a contract as the difference between the total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete the services. We then recognize that revenue and profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that could span several years. A change in our estimate of total cost to complete could affect the profitability of our contracts. We review and update our contract-related estimates regularly, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that they are determined. Changes in estimates related to certain types of contracts accounted for using an input method measure of progress, such as cost-to-cost, catch-up Management exercises judgment to determine the period of benefit to amortize contract acquisition costs by considering factors such as expected renewals of customer contracts, duration of customer relationships and our technology development life cycle. Although we believe that the historical assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact our reported financial results. Amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs is included in sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. We periodically review these deferred costs to determine whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could impact the period of benefit of these deferred contract acquisition costs. The nature of our products and services are as follows: License Our software license arrangements are generally comprised of fixed license fees (“license fees”) that are payable upfront, annually, quarterly, or monthly based on negotiated customer payment terms. For software license arrangements in which a significant portion of the license fees are due more than 12 months after the software is delivered to the customer, a significant financing component may exist. The significant financing component is calculated as the difference between the stated value and present value of the software license fees and is recognized as interest income under the effective interest method over the contract term. The total software license fee net of the significant financing component is recognized as revenue at the point in time when the software is made available to the customer for download. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition and the timing of invoicing is one year or less, we follow the practical expedient and do not impute interest for these contracts. Maintenance Professional Services Software as a Service (“SaaS”) on-going As the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits as access is provided, our performance obligation under our SaaS-based arrangements is comprised of a series of distinct services delivered over time. Our SaaS-based arrangements may include fixed, variable, or a combination of fixed and variable consideration. Fixed consideration is recognized over the term of the arrangement. Variable consideration in these arrangements is typically a function of a tier-based pricing structure. Variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and allocated to each distinct service period within the series and revenue is recognized as each distinct service period is performed. Hardware trade-in We offer shipping and handling services to customers related to the sale of hardware. We have elected the practical expedient to account for shipping and handling activities performed after transferring control of goods to our customer as a cost to fulfill the contract. The cost of shipping and handling will be accrued at the point in which control transfers to the customer and revenue is recognized. Ink Customized Development Extended Service Plans (“ESP”)
