    Dear Fellow Shareholders, Hasbro will host the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on Thursday, May 18 at the Company’s headquarters in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The attached Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and Proxy Statement provides information regarding the business we will conduct at the Meeting and other important matters regarding our Company. On behalf of Hasbro’s Board of Directors, we encourage you to vote your shares and invite you to join the meeting. Over the past ten years, Hasbro has redefined itself as a global organization Creating the World’s Best Play Experiences. It has invested to build the best possible team to execute consumer insight and story-led brands across consumer touch points, including toys and games, digital gaming, entertainment and consumer products. This strategic roadmap is known as Hasbro’s Brand Blueprint. In 2016, strong execution of the Brand Blueprint delivered another record year. 13% revenue growth drove Hasbro’s first $5 billion revenue year along with a 14% increase in operating profit and a 22% increase in diluted earnings per share. Consistent with Hasbro’s long-standing capital priorities, the Company invested back into the business to drive long-term profitable growth and shareholder value creation. In 2016, this included investing in brands, innovation, new capabilities around the Brand Blueprint, such as the acquisition of Boulder Media, and in systems infrastructure. The Company then returned excess cash to shareholders. Hasbro generated $775 million in operating cash flow last year and returned approximately $400 million to shareholders. This included $249 million in dividends and $151 million in share repurchases.
