- Total revenue for the quarter was $179.6 million, compared with $191.6 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the shift of the Easter holiday into the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter as well as the impact of severe winter weather throughout the period, particularly during the key Valentine holiday.
- EBITDA, excluding stock-based compensation, was $3.3 million, compared with $10.7 million in the prior year period.

CARLE PLACE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 2014--1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLWS), the world’s leading florist and gift shop, today reported revenues from continuing operations of $179.6 million for its fiscal 2014 third quarter, ended March 30, 2014, compared with revenues from continuing operations of $191.6 million in the prior year period. The Company said the 6.3 percent decline was primarily driven by the shift of the Easter holiday into its fiscal fourth quarter, compared with the prior year when the holiday fell in the Company’s fiscal third quarter, as well as the impact of severe winter weather beginning in January and culminating with the winter storm that effected much of the country at the key Valentine holiday.
Gross profit margin for the third quarter was 41.0 percent, compared with 42.0 percent in the prior year period, reflecting both product mix and higher customer credits associated with the severe weather during the Valentine holiday. Operating expenses as a percent of revenue were 42.5 percent compared with 39.5 percent in the prior year period, reflecting the lower revenues during the quarter as well as increased marketing spending during the Valentine holiday period.
As a result of the aforementioned factors, EBITDA, excluding stock-based compensation, was $3.3 million, compared with $10.7 million in the prior year period. Net loss from continuing operations attributable to 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. was $1.4 million, or ($0.02) per share, compared with income of $3.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Jim McCann, CEO of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, said, “The results of our fiscal third quarter reflect the shift of the Easter holiday into our fourth quarter this year, compared with last year when the holiday was in our fiscal third quarter, as well as the impact of the severe winter weather experienced across much of the country beginning in January and culminating in the storm that hit on February 13th, thereby disrupting the key Valentine holiday. Regarding the Easter shift, we anticipate capturing all of the top and bottom-line benefits associated with the holiday across all three of our business segments during our current fiscal fourth quarter.”
McCann said that the Company was proud of its efforts to help customers deliver smiles during the Valentine holiday, despite the challenging weather. “Our proactive planning for severe weather around the Valentine holiday, which we dubbed ‘Operation Love Storm,’ enabled us to utilize our unique distribution platform, particularly our BloomNet network of professional florists, to deliver millions of smiles for our customers throughout the country, including regions hit hardest by the snow and ice storms.
“In addition, throughout the holiday period, our dedicated customer service associates – including our home agents and our internal social-media communications teams – did an exemplary job of responding to each and every customer inquiry and issue we received. As a result, we were heartened by the post-holiday accolades we received in the blogosphere for our open and transparent communications policy on Twitter and Facebook. All of these efforts reflect our many years of experience as the world’s leading florist and gift shop as well as our unparalleled passion for providing great service and delivering smiles. We believe this focus positions us well to deliver solid year-over-year growth during our current fiscal fourth quarter which features the spring gifting occasions including Easter, Administrative Professionals Week, Mother’s Day, Graduation and Wedding season and Father’s Day.”
During the fiscal third quarter, the Company attracted 675,000 new customers. Approximately 1.6 million customers placed orders during the quarter, of whom 58.4 percent were repeat customers. This reflects the Company’s successful efforts to engage with its customers with truly original product designs and relevant marketing programs that help deepen its relationships as their trusted Florist and Gift Shop for all of their celebratory occasions.
The Company provides selected financial results for its 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® Consumer Floral, BloomNet® wire service and Gourmet Foods and Gift Baskets business segments in the tables attached to this release and as follows:
SEGMENT RESULTS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS:
- 1-800-FLOWERS.COM Consumer Floral: During the fiscal 2014 third quarter, revenues in this segment grew 1.0 percent to $122.3 million, compared with $121.0 million in the prior year period. Revenues for the quarter included approximately $2.7 million resulting from the consolidation of the operating results of iFlorist, a UK floral gift provider in which the Company increased its investment to a majority position during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Revenue growth was impacted by the aforementioned shift of the Easter holiday into the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter this year, compared with the prior year period when the holiday fell in the Company’s fiscal third quarter, as well as the impact of the severe winter weather during the period. Gross margin for the quarter was 38.9 percent, down 110 basis points compared with 40.0 percent in the prior year period, reflecting the impact of lower margins associated with the aforementioned iFlorist business as well as higher customer credits due to the impact of severe weather during the Valentine holiday. As a result of these factors, coupled with increased marketing spending for the Valentine holiday which was negated by the February 13th storm, contribution margin was $11.2 million, compared with $13.9 million in the prior year period.
- BloomNet Wire Service: Revenues for the quarter were $22.6 million, essentially flat compared with $22.8 million in the prior year period. Gross margin for the quarter increased 330 basis points to 53.2 percent, compared with 49.9 percent, reflecting revenue mix, which included growth in sales of higher-margin services, such as web-marketing and directory advertising programs as well as pricing initiatives. As a result of these factors, segment contribution margin was $7.1 million, compared with $7.0 million in the prior year period.
- Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets: Revenues for the fiscal third quarter were $35.3 million, compared with $48.3 million in the prior year period. The decline in revenues primarily reflected the aforementioned shift of the Easter holiday into the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter as well as the severe winter weather during the period and lower wholesale orders for the Company’s chocolate brands. Gross margin was 38.7 percent, compared with 42.4 percent, primarily reflecting the lower revenues in the quarter as well as product mix. Segment contribution margin was a loss of $3.2 million, compared with a gain of $1.6 million in the prior year period.
Company Guidance:
The Company said that, based on its results through the first nine months of the fiscal year and including the aforementioned impact of severe weather in January and February that culminated with the winter storms on the Valentine holiday, it expects to achieve revenue growth across all three of its business segments for the year with consolidated revenue growth for the year in the low-to-mid-single-digit range. Regarding bottom-line results, the Company anticipates EBITDA and EPS for the year will be flat to down slightly compared with the prior year. Free Cash Flow for the year is now expected to be in a range of approximately $10-to-$15 million.
Definitions:
* EBITDA: Net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization. Free Cash Flow: net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Category contribution margin: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, before the allocation of corporate overhead expenses. The Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations because it considers such information meaningful supplemental measures of its performance and believes such information is frequently used by the investment community in the evaluation of similarly situated companies. The Company also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as factors used to determine the total amount of incentive compensation available to be awarded to executive officers and other employees. The Company’s credit agreement uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to measure compliance with covenants such as interest coverage and debt incurrence. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by the Company to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are: (a) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs; (b) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company's debts; and (c) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such capital expenditures. EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should only be used on a supplemental basis combined with GAAP results when evaluating the Company's performance.

| | | | (*) | | Corporate expenses consist of the Company’s enterprise shared service cost centers, and include, among other items, Information Technology, Human Resources, Accounting and Finance, Legal, Executive and Customer Service Center functions, as well as Stock-Based Compensation. In order to leverage the Company’s infrastructure, these functions are operated under a centralized management platform, providing support services throughout the organization. The costs of these functions, other than those of the Customer Service Center, which are allocated directly to the above categories based upon usage, are included within corporate expenses as they are not directly allocable to a specific segment. |
| | | | | |
| | | (**) | | Performance is measured based on segment contribution margin or segment Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting only the direct controllable revenue and operating expenses of the segments. As such, management’s measure of profitability for these segments does not include the effect of corporate overhead, described above, depreciation and amortization, other income (net), nor does it include one-time charges or gains. Management utilizes EBITDA, and adjusted financial information, as a performance measurement tool because it considers such information a meaningful supplemental measure of its performance and believes it is frequently used by the investment community in the evaluation of companies with comparable market capitalization. The Company also uses EBITDA and adjusted financial information as one of the factors used to determine the total amount of bonuses available to be awarded to executive officers and other employees. The Company’s credit agreement uses EBITDA and adjusted financial information to measure compliance with covenants such as interest coverage and debt incurrence. EBITDA and adjusted financial information is also used by the Company to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates. EBITDA and adjusted financial information have limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (a) EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs; (b) EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company's debts; and (c) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such capital expenditures. Because of these limitations, EBITDA should only be used on a supplemental basis combined with GAAP results when evaluating the Company's performance. |
