	Description of Business
	FTD Companies, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "FTD" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, through its operating subsidiaries, is a leading provider of floral, gift and related products and services to consumers, retail florists, and other retail locations and companies in need of floral and gifting solutions primarily in the United States ("U.S."), Canada, the United Kingdom ("U.K."), and the Republic of Ireland. The business uses the highly-recognized FTD® and Interflora® brands, both supported by the iconic Mercury Man logo. While the Company operates primarily in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and the Republic of Ireland, the Company has worldwide presence as its Mercury Man logo is displayed in nearly 40,000 floral shops in approximately 150 countries. The Company's portfolio of brands also includes Flying Flowers, Flowers Direct, and Drake Algar in the U.K. FTD does not currently own or operate any retail locations, with the exception of one retail shop located in the U.K. While floral arrangements and plants are FTD's primary offerings, the Company also markets and sells gift items, including jewelry, chocolate dip delights™ and other sweets, gift baskets, wine and champagne, fruit, and spa products.
	FTD Group, Inc. ("FTD Group") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FTD Companies, Inc. and has as its principal operating subsidiaries, Florists' Transworld Delivery, Inc., FTD.COM Inc. ("FTD.COM"), Interflora British Unit ("Interflora"), and, with the Company's acquisition of Provide Commerce Inc. on December 31, 2014 (as described below), Provide Commerce Inc. The operations of the Company include those of its subsidiary, Interflora, Inc., of which one-third is owned by an outside third party. The minority interest related to Interflora, Inc. is not material for separate presentation. The Company's corporate headquarters is located in Downers Grove, Illinois. The Company also maintains offices in San Diego, California; Woodridge, Illinois; Centerbrook, Connecticut; Medford, Oregon; Sleaford, England; Quebec, Canada; and Hyderabad, India; and distribution centers in various locations throughout the U.S.
	Separation from United Online
	Prior to November 1, 2013, FTD was a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Online, Inc. ("United Online"). On November 1, 2013, United Online separated into two independent, publicly-traded companies: FTD Companies, Inc. and United Online, Inc. (the "Separation"). The Separation was consummated through a tax-free dividend involving the distribution of all shares of FTD common stock to United Online's stockholders. Following completion of the Separation, FTD Companies, Inc. became an independent, publicly-traded company on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "FTD".
	Acquisition of Provide Commerce, Inc.
	On December 31, 2014, the Company acquired from a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation ("Liberty") all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Provide Commerce, Inc., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty ("Provide Commerce"), for a purchase price consisting of (i) cash consideration of approximately $145 million, which included $23 million for Provide Commerce's estimated cash on hand, net of an estimated working capital adjustment, and (ii) 10,203,010 shares of FTD common stock, representing approximately 35% of the issued and outstanding shares of FTD common stock (the "Acquisition"). Upon the closing of the Acquisition, Provide Commerce became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FTD. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based upon the final closing working capital (as determined within 90 days of the closing date), which adjustment is currently estimated as additional purchase price of $3.1 million.
	Provide Commerce derives its revenues from the sale of flowers and plants, gourmet foods, personalized gifts and other gifting products. Our portfolio of brands now includes: ProFlowers® and ProPlants® for fresh-cut flowers, floral arrangements, and plants; Shari's Berries® for gourmet-dipped berries and other products; Personal Creations® for personalized gifts; Cherry Moon Farms® for premium fresh fruits; Gifts.com™ for a wide variety of everyday gifting options searchable through its proprietary gifting tools; and Sincerely™ for mobile gifting applications.
	Concurrent with the closing of the Acquisition, FTD and Liberty entered into an investor rights agreement (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), which governs certain rights of and restrictions on Liberty in connection with the shares of FTD common stock that Liberty owns as a result of the Acquisition. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the FTD board of directors was increased from seven to eleven directors, with Liberty selecting four new directors for appointment to the FTD board. At the close of the Acquisition, one of these directors was appointed to each of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Audit Committee and Compensation Committee of the FTD board. Such appointments are subject in all respects to the terms and conditions contained in the Investor Rights Agreement.
	Basis of Presentation
	The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions, other than those with the Company's former parent, United Online, when we were wholly-owned by United Online, have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The consolidated financial statements reflect the historical financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation include expense allocations for certain corporate functions performed by United Online. Management believes the assumptions underlying such financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from United Online, were reasonable. Nevertheless, the consolidated financial statements may not reflect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, had the Company been a stand-alone company prior to the Separation. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by United Online and the settlement of such costs, see Note 5—"Transactions with Related Parties." Actual costs that would have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company prior to the Separation would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structures and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.
	The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make accounting policy elections, estimates and assumptions that affect a number of reported amounts and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that it believes are reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
	"Emerging Growth Company" Reporting Requirements
	The Company qualifies as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act"). For as long as the Company is deemed to be an "emerging growth company," the Company may take advantage of certain exemptions from various regulatory reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies. Among other things, the Company is not required to (1) provide an auditor's attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company's system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) comply with any new rules that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about the audit and the financial statements of the issuer, (3) comply with any new audit rules adopted by the PCAOB after April 5, 2012 unless the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") determines otherwise, (4) comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards applicable to public companies until such standards are also applicable to private companies under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, (5) provide certain disclosure regarding executive compensation required of larger public companies, or (6) hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and obtain stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
	As an "emerging growth company," the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until such standards are also applicable to private companies. As a result of this election, the Company's financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with non-emerging growth companies' effective dates for such new or revised standards.
	The Company will remain an "emerging growth company" until the earliest of (1) the last day of the first fiscal year in which total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (2) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a "large accelerated filer," as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act or any successor statute, which would occur if the market value of the Company's common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter, (3) the date on which the Company issues more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period, or (4) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company anticipates that it will no longer qualify as an "emerging growth company" as of December 31, 2015.
	Accounting Policies
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers cash equivalents to be only those investments which are highly liquid, readily convertible to cash and which have a maturity date within three months from the date of purchase. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were maintained primarily with major financial institutions and brokerage firms in the U.S. and the U.K. Deposits with these institutions generally exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.
	Accounts Receivable, including Financing Receivables
	The Company's accounts receivable are derived primarily from revenues earned from floral network members located in the U.S. and the U.K. The Company extends credit based upon an evaluation of the customer's financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable and, to date, such losses have been within management's expectations.
	The Company evaluates specific accounts receivable where information exists that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations. In these cases, based on reasonably available facts and circumstances, a specific allowance is recorded for that customer against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount that is expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received that impacts the amount of the allowance. Also, an allowance is established for all customers based on the aging of the receivables. If circumstances change (i.e., higher than expected delinquencies or an unexpected material adverse change in a customer's ability to meet its financial obligations), the estimates of the recoverability of amounts due to the Company are adjusted. The Company aggressively pursues collection of past due receivables through a number of avenues prior to writing off receivables. Past due receivables are those that remain outstanding beyond the payment due date.
	The Company has financing receivables related to equipment sales to floral network members. The Company records all financing receivables at fair value and amortizes such receivables to stated value. The current and noncurrent portions of financing receivables are included in accounts receivable and other assets, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes interest income as earned. The Company assesses credit quality indicators based on whether financing receivables are current or past due. Financing receivables are placed on nonaccrual status, with interest no longer accruing, when a floral network member ceases to be a member, either due to the member terminating its membership or due to the Company terminating such member's membership, generally as a result of delinquent payments or violations of FTD's network standards. The Company would not expect to resume the accrual of interest income unless a member who had terminated its membership chooses to be reinstated as a member at a later date and agrees to a plan to pay its balance, if any, that remains outstanding. The Company assesses financing receivables individually for balances due from current floral network members and collectively for balances due from terminated floral network members. A financing receivable is considered to be impaired when the Company determines that it is probable that it will not be able to collect amounts due under the contractual terms. The Company does not record interest income for impaired receivables. If cash is received, the receivable balance is reduced and related credit allowance adjusted accordingly. Fair value approximates the carrying amount of financing receivables because such receivables are discounted at a rate comparable to market.
	Inventory
	Other than acquired inventory related to the Acquisition, which is stated at the Company's preliminary estimate of fair value, the Company's inventories, which consist primarily of products held for sale, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory is valued using the weighted-average cost method. The Company regularly assesses the valuation of inventory and reviews inventory quantities on hand and, if necessary, writes down excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on the age of the inventory and forecasts of product demand, as well as markdowns for the excess of cost over the amount the Company expects to realize from the sale of certain inventory.
	Property and Equipment
	Other than acquired property and equipment related to the Acquisition, which are stated at the Company's preliminary estimate of fair value, property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally two to three years for computer software and computer equipment, three to seven years for furniture and fixtures, twenty-five to forty years for buildings, and five to forty years for building improvements. Leasehold improvements, which are included in furniture and fixtures, are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or ten years. Upon the sale or retirement of property or equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the Company's consolidated financial statements with the resulting gain or loss reflected in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
	Derivative Instruments
	The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company maintains interest rate cap instruments to reduce its interest rate risk associated with future cash interest payments on a portion of its outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as defined below). In addition, at times the Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the risk that its net investments in foreign subsidiaries, cash flows and earnings will be adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company records derivative instruments at fair value in other current assets, other assets or accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company records changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of derivative instruments as interest expense or other income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations or in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets. Neither the interest rate caps nor the forward foreign currency exchange contracts contain any credit risk-related contingent features. The Company's hedging program is not designed for trading or speculative purposes.
	Net Investment Hedges—For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a hedge of a net investment, the gain or loss is reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets to the extent the hedge is effective, with the related amounts due to or from counterparties included in accrued liabilities or other current assets, respectively. The Company utilizes the forward-rate method of assessing hedge effectiveness. Gains or losses related to any ineffective portions of net investment hedges are recognized in other income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company presents the cash flows of net investment hedges in investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
	Cash Flow Hedges—The Company's interest rate cap instruments are designated as cash flow hedges against expected future cash flows attributable to future interest payments on a portion of its outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Company initially reports the gains or losses related to the effective portion of the hedges as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets and subsequently reclassifies the interest rate caps' gains or losses to interest expense when the hedged expenses are recorded. The Company includes the change in the time value of the interest rate caps in its assessment of their hedge effectiveness. The Company presents the cash flows from cash flow hedges in the same category in the consolidated statements of cash flows as the category for the cash flows from the hedged items.
	For additional information related to derivative instruments, see Note 8—"Derivative Instruments."
	Fair Value Measurements
	ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), establishes a three-tiered hierarchy that draws a distinction between market participant assumptions based on (i) quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1); (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). In accordance with ASC 820, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to measure fair value. If market prices are not available, fair value measurement is based upon models that use primarily market-based or independently-sourced market parameters. If market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques are not available, the Company will be required to make judgments about assumptions market participants would use in estimating the fair value of the financial instrument. Fair values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and short-term borrowings approximate their carrying amounts because of their short-term nature. Derivative instruments are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. The fair values for the interest rate caps are calculated using an option pricing model based on available forward yield curves for caplets with the same characteristics adjusted for the counterparty risk of nonperformance based on the credit spread derived from the applicable five-year default swap rates. The fair values of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts are calculated based on quoted market prices of similar instruments adjusted for counterparty risk of nonperformance. The key assumptions used in calculating the fair value of these derivative instruments are the forward rates, discount rate and implied volatility. Long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. However, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of long-term debt under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, based on the discounted cash flow method. The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices of comparable risk bonds using market prices and expected future interest rates based on quoted market rates from the U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swap curve.
	Acquisitions
	The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired businesses to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction at their estimated fair values. The estimates used to determine the fair value of long-lived assets, such as intangible assets, can be complex and require significant judgments. The Company uses information available to it to make fair value determinations and engages independent valuation specialists, when necessary, to assist in the fair value determination of significant acquired long-lived assets. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as a part of the purchase price allocation process, such estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company is also required to estimate the useful lives of intangible assets to determine the amount of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense to record in future periods. The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives assigned to its intangible assets to determine whether such estimated useful lives continue to be appropriate.
	Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired entity over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired in a business combination are initially recorded at management's estimate of their fair value. The Company accounts for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not subject to amortization but are reviewed for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would indicate it is more-likely-than-not that the goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangible assets might be impaired. Testing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or intangible asset to its carrying value. If the carrying amount of the goodwill or intangible asset exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.
	In calculating the fair value of the reporting units, the Company used a combination of the market approach and the income approach valuation methodologies. Under the market approach the Company used the guideline company method, which focuses on comparing the risk profile and growth prospects to select reasonably similar companies based on business description, revenue size, markets served and profitability. The key assumptions used in the income approach discounted cash flow valuation model included discount rates, growth rates, cash flow projections, and terminal growth rates. The discount rate utilized is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in a similar business. Considering industry and company-specific historical data and internal forecasts and projections, management developed growth rates and cash flow projections for each reporting unit. In determining the terminal growth rates, the Company considered GDP growth, consumer price inflation and the long-term growth prospects of each reporting unit. The discount rate, growth rates, cash flow projections and terminal growth rates are also significant estimates used in the determination of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets.
	Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is a component of a business or a group of businesses for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by management. Prior to the Separation, the Company reported operating results as one operating and reportable segment, but had two reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill, the FTD reporting unit and the Interflora reporting unit. With the management changes that occurred in conjunction with the Separation, the Company began reporting its business operations in three operating and reportable segments: Consumer, Florist, and International. These reportable segments were also the Company's reporting units prior to the Acquisition on December 31, 2014. The Company performed its annual goodwill assessment for these three reporting units as of October 1, 2014. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company's operating and reportable segments changed to include a fourth segment, Provide Commerce. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2014, the Company's operating and reportable segments consist of Consumer, Florist, International and Provide Commerce.
	Finite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets
	The Company accounts for finite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are initially recorded at management's estimate of their fair values. The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets, other than indefinite-lived intangible assets, for impairment when events occur or circumstances change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may indicate that an asset is impaired include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in the market value of an asset, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, a change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, shifts in technology, significant negative industry or economic trends, changes in the Company's operating model or strategy, and competitive forces. In determining if an impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets. If an impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets' carrying amounts and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the respective fair values of the assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from two to fifteen years. The Company's identifiable intangible assets were acquired primarily in connection with business combinations.
	Revenue Recognition
	The Company applies the provisions of ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered and no significant Company obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues exclude sales taxes.
	Products revenues, less discounts and refunds, and the related cost of revenues are recognized when products are delivered to the customers. Shipping and service fees charged to customers are recognized at the time the related products revenues are recognized and are included in products revenues. Shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. The Company generally recognizes revenues for sales to consumers on a gross basis because the Company bears the risks and rewards associated with the revenue-generating activities by (i) acting as a principal in the transaction; (ii) establishing prices; (iii) being responsible for fulfillment of the order by the floral network members, third-party suppliers; (iv) taking the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns; and (v) marketing the products and services.
	The Company also sells point-of-sale systems and related technology services to its floral network members and recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605 and ASC 985, Software. The Company recognizes revenues on hardware which is sold without software at the time of delivery. For hardware sales that include software, revenues are recognized when delivery, installation and customer acceptance have all occurred.
	Services revenues related to orders sent through the floral network are variable based on either the number of orders or on the value of orders and are recognized in the period in which the orders are delivered. Membership and other subscription-based fees are recognized monthly as earned, on a month-to-month basis.
	Probability of collection is assessed based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer. If it is determined that collectability is not reasonably assured, revenues are not recognized until collectability becomes reasonably assured.
	Cost of Revenues
	Cost of revenues primarily include product costs; shipping and delivery costs; costs associated with taking orders; printing and postage costs; systems installation, training and support costs; telecommunications and data center costs; depreciation of network computers and equipment; license fees; costs related to customer billing and billing support for the Company's floral network members; fees associated with the storage and processing of customer credit cards and associated bank fees; domain name registration fees; and personnel and overhead-related costs associated with operating the Company's networks.
	Sales and Marketing
	Sales and marketing expenses include expenses associated with promoting the Company's brands, products and services. Such expenses include advertising and promotion expenses; fees paid to online and other corporate partners and to floral network members related to order volume sent through the Company's floral network; and personnel and overhead-related expenses for marketing, merchandising, customer service and sales personnel. In addition, sales and marketing expenditures also include branding and customer acquisition campaigns consisting of television, internet, radio public relations, sponsorships, print, and outdoor advertising, and retail and other performance-based distribution relationships. Marketing and advertising costs to promote the Company's brands, products and services are expensed in the period incurred. Advertising expenses include media, agency and promotion expenses. Media production costs are expensed the first time the advertisement is run. Media and agency costs are expensed over the period the advertising runs. Advertising and promotion expenses for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 were $69.5 million, $63.0 million, and $63.7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, $2.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of prepaid advertising and promotion expenses were included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
	Software Development Costs
	The Company accounts for costs incurred to develop software for internal-use in accordance with ASC 350, which requires such costs be capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Such capitalized costs include external direct costs incurred in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees who are directly associated with developing the applications. Capitalization of such costs begins when the preliminary project stage is complete and ceases at the point in which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. The Company capitalized costs associated with internal-use software totaling $3.7 million and $4.7 million in the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over each project's estimated useful life, which is generally three to five years. Capitalized internal-use software, which was valued in connection with the acquisition of FTD Group by United Online in 2008, is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and was amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years. This internal-use software became fully amortized in 2013. The estimated preliminary fair value of capitalized internal-use software valued in connection with the Acquisition is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, which we preliminarily estimate to be five years. All other capitalized internal-use software is included in the computer software category within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets.
	Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed
	The Company follows the provisions of ASC 985, which requires that all costs relating to the purchase or internal development and production of computer software products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed be expensed in the period incurred unless the requirements for technological feasibility have been established. The Company capitalizes all eligible computer software costs incurred once technological feasibility is established. The Company amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over a period of three to five years. At both December 31, 2014 and 2013, the carrying amount of capitalized computer software costs related to the purchase or internal development and production of computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed was $0.6 million, and is included within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company amortized and recognized associated depreciation expense of $0.4 million, $2.5 million, and $3.9 million, respectively, related to these capitalized computer software costs. Software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, which was valued in connection with the acquisition of FTD Group by United Online in 2008, is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and became fully amortized in 2013. All other software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed is included in the computer software category within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets.
	General and Administrative
	General and administrative expenses include personnel-related expenses for executive, finance, legal, human resources, technology, facilities, and internal audit. In addition, general and administrative expenses include, among other costs, maintenance of existing software, technology and websites; development of new or improved software technology; professional fees for legal, accounting, and financial services; insurance; occupancy and other overhead-related costs; non-income taxes; bad debt expense; reserves or expenses related to litigation, investigations, or similar matters; and gains and losses on sales of assets. These include direct expenses incurred by FTD, as well as general corporate costs which were allocated to FTD by United Online prior to the Separation. General and administrative expenses also include expenses resulting from actual or potential transactions such as acquisitions, spin-offs, financing transactions, and other strategic transactions.
	Restructuring and Other Exit Costs
	Restructuring and other exit costs consist of costs associated with the realignment and reorganization of the Company's operations and other employee termination events. Restructuring and other exit costs include employee termination costs, facility closure and relocation costs, and contract termination costs. The timing of associated cash payments is dependent upon the type of exit cost and can extend over a 12-month period. The Company records restructuring and other exit costs liabilities in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
	Stock-Based Compensation
	Prior to the Separation, the Company's employees were generally eligible to participate in the stock-based compensation plans of United Online. Under these plans, certain employees of the Company received grants of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and stock options for United Online common stock. Additionally, all eligible Company employees were provided the opportunity to participate in United Online's employee stock purchase plan. In connection with the Separation, equity awards previously granted under the stock-based compensation plans of United Online and outstanding at the Separation date, were adjusted and converted into new FTD equity awards under the FTD Companies, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan, later amended and restated as the FTD Companies, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan. For additional information related to equity awards and the conversion of United Online equity awards at the Separation date, see Note 11—"Incentive Compensation Plans."
Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. The fair value of RSUs is based on the closing stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which utilizes various assumptions including expected volatility and expected term. For awards issued by the Company, the simplified method was used to determine the term and the forfeiture rates were based on historical trends for the Company's employees. Volatility was determined based on a combination of the Company's and United Online's historical volatility as the Company represented a significant portion of consolidated United Online prior to the Separation and the Company does not yet have sufficient history to base the assumption on solely its historical volatility. For awards granted prior to the Separation, United Online's assumptions at the time of the grant were used.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. For the Company, comprehensive income (loss) primarily consists of its reported net income, changes in unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, net of tax, and foreign currency translation.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company accounts for foreign currency translation in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The functional currency of each of the Company's international subsidiaries is its respective local currency, with the exception of India for which it is the U.S. dollar. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated to U.S. Dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes
Through October 31, 2013, the Company was included in the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return of United Online, as well as certain state tax returns where United Online files on a combined basis. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, and computes the provision for income taxes on a separate return basis. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. In evaluating the Company's ability to recover its deferred tax assets, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including its operating results, ongoing tax planning and forecasts of future taxable income on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes, in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of the Company's tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
Earnings Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain of the Company's RSUs are considered participating securities because they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends irrespective of whether dividends are actually declared or paid or the awards ultimately vest.
Legal Contingencies
The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings and investigations. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company may be unable to estimate a possible loss or range of possible loss due to various reasons, including, among others: (i) if the damages sought are indeterminate, (ii) if the proceedings are in early stages, (iii) if there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals, motions or settlements, (iv) if there are significant factual issues to be determined or resolved, and (v) if there are novel or unsettled legal theories presented. In such instances, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of such matters, including a possible eventual loss, if any. The Company continually assesses the potential liability related to such pending matters. Legal matters are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the Company's control. As such, there can be no assurance that the final outcome of these matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Operating Leases
The Company leases space for warehouses, call center facilities, office space, distribution facilities, technology development and support, and data centers, and leases certain vehicles and office equipment under operating lease agreements with original lease periods of up to thirteen years. Certain of the lease agreements contain rent holidays and rent escalation provisions. Rent holidays and rent escalation provisions are considered in determining straight-line rent expense to be recorded over the lease term. The lease term begins on the date of initial possession of the leased property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, as codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740. The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. However, to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This ASU applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU affect any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items, which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items from GAAP. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the requirement that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments should be applied prospectively and retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITIONS	2. ACQUISITIONS
	Acquisition of Provide Commerce
	On December 31, 2014, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Provide Commerce from Liberty. Provide Commerce's portfolio of brands includes ProFlowers and ProPlants for fresh-cut flowers, floral arrangements, and plants; Shari's Berries for gourmet-dipped berries and other products; Personal Creations for personalized gifts; Cherry Moon Farms for premium fresh fruits; Gifts.com for a wide variety of everyday gifting options; and Sincerely for mobile gifting applications. The Acquisition expands the breadth of the Company's brand by combining two complementary businesses to offer customers a greater variety of floral and gifting products and an enhanced shopping experience and is expected to generate significant cost synergies. The Company believes that these factors support the estimated amount of goodwill related to the Acquisition.
	The purchase price consisted of (i) cash consideration of approximately $106.6 million, net of acquired cash of $38.1 million and an estimated working capital adjustment, and (ii) 10,203,010 shares of FTD common stock, representing approximately 35% of the issued and outstanding shares of FTD common stock. The FTD common stock was valued at $34.82 per share, the closing price on December 31, 2014, the date of the Acquisition, for purposes of determining the purchase price. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based upon the final closing working capital (as determined within 90 days of the closing date), which adjustment is currently estimated as additional purchase price of $3.1 million and has been included in the total purchase price. The purchase price was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on management's preliminary estimates of their respective fair values as of the closing date of the Acquisition. The Company believes that the preliminary fair values assigned to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were based on reasonable assumptions, however, as the Acquisition was completed on December 31, 2014, additional information is needed in order to determine the final fair values. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
			Preliminary
			Estimate of
			Fair Value
	Net liabilities assumed:
	Cash		$	38,081
	Accounts receivable			7,065
	Inventories			19,800
	Prepaid expenses			11,325
	Other assets			13,605
	Property and equipment			33,888
	Accounts payable and accrued liabilities			(79,561	)
	Deferred tax liabilities, net			(92,748	)
	Other liabilities			(23,543	)
	Total net liabilities assumed			(72,088	)
	Intangible assets acquired:
	Trademarks and trade names			147,700
	Customer contracts and relationships			94,100
	Complete technology			36,300
	Total intangible assets acquired			278,100
	Goodwill			297,076
	Total purchase price		$	503,088
	Of the acquired trademarks and trade names, the Company currently estimates that $90.9 million will be deemed to be indefinite-lived. The remainder of the acquired intangibles will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from two to fifteen years. The goodwill acquired in the Acquisition is not deductible for federal tax purposes.
	As the Acquisition was completed on December 31, 2014, no results of operations of Provide Commerce were included in the consolidated statement of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 included the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Acquisition.
	The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presents the consolidated results of operations of the Company as if the Acquisition described above had occurred as of January 1, 2013. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to present what the actual results of operations would have been had the transaction actually occurred on the date indicated, nor does it purport to represent results of operations for any future period. The information does not reflect any cost savings or other benefits that may be obtained through anticipated synergies as a result of the Acquisition.

	Acquisition of the Gifts Division of Flying Brands Limited
	On April 30, 2012, Interflora acquired certain of the assets of the Gifts Division of Flying Brands Limited, including the Flying Flowers, Flowers Direct, and Drake Algar businesses. The primary reason for the acquisition was to broaden Interflora's presence in the U.K. and also to provide a retail corporate presence in London. Interflora paid approximately $3.9 million in cash at closing, of which $1.3 million was attributed to goodwill and $2.6 million was allocated to acquired intangible assets, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to ten years. Goodwill acquired in connection with the acquisition of the Gifts Division of Flying Brands Limited is being amortized for tax purposes. In connection with the acquisition, the Company incurred $0.6 million in transaction-related costs in the year ended December 31, 2012, which were recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The acquisition is not considered material for purposes of further disclosure.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
SEGMENT INFORMATION	3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
	Prior to the Separation, the Company reported its business operations in one operating and reportable segment. With the management changes that occurred in conjunction with the Separation, the Company began reporting its business operations in three operating and reportable segments: Consumer, Florist and International. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company's operating and reportable segments changed to include a fourth segment, Provide Commerce. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2014, the Company's operating and reportable segments consist of Consumer, Florist, International and Provide Commerce. However, as the Acquisition was completed on December 31, 2014, no results of operations of Provide Commerce were included in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. Accordingly, segment reporting for all periods presented, reflects the Company's three reportable segments that were in effect through the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 includes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Acquisition.
	The Company follows the reporting requirements of ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Management measures and reviews the Company's operating results by segment in accordance with the "management approach" defined in ASC 280. The reportable segments identified below were the segments of the Company, prior to the Acquisition on December 31, 2014, for which separate financial information was available and for which segment results were regularly reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about the allocation of resources and to assess performance. The CODM uses segment operating income to evaluate the performance of the business segments and make decisions about allocating resources among segments. Segment operating income is operating income excluding depreciation, amortization, litigation and dispute settlement charges or gains, transaction-related costs, and restructuring and other exit costs. Stock-based compensation and general corporate expenses are not allocated to the segments. Segment operating income is prior to intersegment eliminations and excludes other income (expense).

	Transactions with Liberty
	As a result of the Acquisition, Liberty owns approximately 35% of the issued and outstanding shares of FTD common stock. FTD and Liberty entered into an Investor Rights Agreement, which governs certain rights of and restrictions on Liberty in connection with the shares of FTD common stock that Liberty owns as a result of the Acquisition. In addition, Provide Commerce and Liberty entered into a services agreement (the "Services Agreement"), under which Provide Commerce will, on a transitional basis, provide Liberty with certain support service and other assistance after the Acquisition in respect of the RedEnvelope business, which was not acquired by FTD as part of the Acquisition. Such services are expected to be short-term in nature. The amounts charged to Liberty under the Services Agreement are not expected to be material. The Acquisition purchase price is subject to adjustment based upon the final closing working capital (as determined within 90 days of the closing date), which adjustment is currently estimated as additional purchase price of $3.1 million. The Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 reflects an accrual for such adjustment, which will be payable to/receivable from Liberty within five business days after final determination.
	Transactions with United Online-Prior to Separation
	For the reporting periods prior to the Separation, the consolidated financial statements included direct costs of the Company incurred by United Online on the Company's behalf and an allocation of certain general corporate costs incurred by United Online. Direct costs included finance, legal, human resources, technology development, and other services and were determined based on the level of services expended by United Online for services provided to the Company. General corporate costs included, without limitation, executive oversight, accounting, internal audit, treasury, tax, and legal. The allocations of these general corporate costs were based primarily on estimated time incurred and/or activities associated with the Company. Management believes the allocations of these corporate costs from United Online were reasonable and does not believe the Company's costs would have been significantly different on a stand-alone basis prior to the Separation. However, the allocated costs may not have included all of the costs that would have been incurred had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods prior to the Separation, and accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements may not have reflected the financial position, results of operations and cash flows had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods prior to the Separation.
	Costs incurred and allocated by United Online, prior to the Separation, were included in the consolidated statements of operations as follows (in thousands):
		Year Ended
		December 31,
		2013			2012
	Cost of revenues—products	$	265		$	487
	Cost of revenues—services		527			666
	Sales and marketing		98			187
	General and administrative		12,017			7,148
	Total allocated expenses	$	12,907		$	8,488
	The table above includes allocated stock-based compensation of $0.9 million and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for the employees of United Online and its non-Company subsidiaries whose cost of services were partially allocated to the Company.
	As noted above, prior to the Separation, United Online allocated both direct costs for services provided and general corporate costs to the Company. In addition, transaction-related costs incurred by United Online from and after April 1, 2013 in connection with the Separation were allocated to the Company. Allocations for direct costs and transaction-related costs were reflected in the intercompany payable to United Online and were due upon demand. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company made payments totaling $9.2 million to United Online to settle intercompany charges, including $1.7 million related to the balance outstanding at December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company made payments totaling $7.7 million to United Online to settle intercompany charges. Allocations of general corporate costs were not settled in cash, but rather were reflected in the parent company investment.
	In each of the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, dividends totaling $18.2 million and $19.3 million, respectively, were declared by the board of directors of FTD Companies, Inc. and paid to United Online, of which $3.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, represented reimbursement of certain equity-related compensation expenses as defined and permitted under the terms of the Company's credit agreements. The $19.3 million of dividends paid during the year ended December 31, 2012 included $1.3 million related to the year ended December 31, 2011. Transactions with United Online prior to the Separation, including both direct and general corporate costs discussed above, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

	Transactions with United Online-Post-Separation
	In connection with the Separation, FTD entered into various agreements with United Online, including The Separation and Distribution Agreement, The Transition Services Agreement, The Tax Sharing Agreement, and The Employee Matters Agreement. These agreements, which became effective on November 1, 2013, govern the relationship between United Online and the Company after the Separation, and set forth, among other things, the rights and obligations of FTD and United Online regarding the Separation including: the rights and obligations related to tax payments and the administration of tax matters post-Separation; transitional services to be provided by United Online after the Separation; the rights and authority of United Online to control and settle certain litigation as disclosed in Note 15—"Commitment and Contingencies;" and the treatment of certain employee matters. Amounts payable under the Transition Services Agreement were $0.3 million at December 31, 2013 and were recorded in accounts payable. No amounts were paid during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company paid $0.6 million to United Online during the year ended December 31, 2014 under the Transition Services Agreement. The transition services were completed on April 15, 2014.
	The I.S. Group Limited
	Interflora holds a 20.4% investment in The I.S. Group Limited ("I.S. Group"), which totaled $1.7 million and $1.6 million at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The share of equity earnings was not material for separate presentation in these consolidated financial statements. I.S. Group supplies floral-related products to Interflora's floral network members in both the U.K. and the Republic of Ireland as well as to other customers. Interflora derives revenues from I.S. Group from (i) the sale of products (sourced from third-party suppliers) to I.S. Group for which revenue is recognized on a gross basis, (ii) the sale of products (sourced from a subsidiary of I.S. Group) to I.S Group for which revenue is recognized on a net basis, (iii) commissions on products sold by I.S. Group (sourced from third-party suppliers) to floral network members, and (iv) commissions for acting as a collection agent on behalf of I.S. Group. Revenues related to products sold to and commissions earned from I.S. Group were $3.0 million, $2.7 million, and $2.8 million in the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. In addition, Interflora purchases products from I.S. Group for sale to consumers. The cost of revenues related to products purchased from I.S. Group was $0.3 million, $0.4 million, and $0.2 million in the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Amounts due from I.S. Group were $0.5 million at both December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and amounts payable to I.S. Group were $1.5 million and $1.4 million at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

	Goodwill
	The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment assessment as of October 1, 2014. The Company elected to perform the two-step quantitative impairment test. In the goodwill impairment assessment, step one of the quantitative goodwill impairment test resulted in the determination that the fair values of the reporting units exceeded their carrying amounts, including goodwill. Accordingly, step two was not required.
	The changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for our segments for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 were as follows (in thousands):
			Consumer		Florist			International			FTD			Total

	(a)	Prior to the Separation, the Company had one segment, FTD. Due to the change in the Company's operating and reportable segments on November 1, 2013 as a result of the Separation, the Company completed an additional goodwill impairment assessment for the Consumer and Florist segments as of that date. In conjunction with that assessment, the goodwill from the previous U.S. reporting unit was allocated to the Consumer and Florist segments/reporting units based on their relative fair values.
	(b)	As a result of the Acquisition, the Company's operating and reportable segments changed to include a fourth segment, Provide Commerce.
	In 2008, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $116.3 million. The table above reflects the Company's goodwill balances net of this accumulated impairment charge. The gross goodwill balance was $748.5 million and $457.2 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment, which increased goodwill and decreased accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2013 by $7.9 million. This out-of-period adjustment was considered immaterial to that quarter, and to the year ended December 31, 2013, and all prior periods, and was netted in the foreign currency translation pre-Separation line item in the table above.
	Intangible Assets
	Intangible assets are primarily related to the acquisition of Provide Commerce in December 2014 and the acquisition of the Company by United Online in August 2008 and consist of the following (in thousands):
			December 31, 2014								December 31, 2013
			Gross		Accumulated			Net			Gross			Accumulated			Net

	The Company's trademarks and trade names are primarily indefinite-lived for which there is no associated amortization expense or accumulated amortization. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, such indefinite-lived assets, after impairment and foreign currency translation adjustments, totaled $247.5 million and $159.3 million, respectively. Included in the above intangible assets are $36.3 million of complete technology, $94.1 million of customer contracts and relationships, and $147.7 million of trademarks and trade names acquired in connection with the Acquisition, which are based on preliminary fair value estimates.
	Estimated future intangible assets amortization expense at December 31, 2014, based on preliminary estimates of useful lives and fair values of the intangible assets acquired in connection with the Acquisition, was as follows (in thousands):
	Year Ending December 31
	2015		$	58,418
	2016			58,233
	2017			11,144
	2018			11,144
	2019			11,143
	Thereafter			38,092
	Total		$	188,174
	The Company elected to perform the one-step quantitative impairment test for its indefinite-lived intangible assets under ASC 350. Under the one-step quantitative impairment test, the fair values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are compared to their respective carrying amounts and, if the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the excess. The quantitative indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment test as of October 1, 2014 resulted in the determination that the estimated fair values of the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying amounts. Accordingly, the Company did not record any impairment charges related to its indefinite-lived intangible assets in the year ended December 31, 2014.

	Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
	On July 17, 2013, FTD Companies, Inc. entered into a credit agreement (the "2013 Credit Agreement") with Interflora, certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of FTD Companies, Inc. party thereto as guarantors, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as joint lead arrangers and book managers, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Administrative Agent"), which provided for a $350 million five-year revolving credit facility. On July 17, 2013, FTD Companies, Inc. drew $220 million of the new $350 million revolving credit facility and used this, together with approximately $19 million of its existing cash balance, to repay amounts outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement (as defined below) in full and pay fees and expenses related to the 2013 Credit Agreement. The 2011 Credit Agreement was terminated in connection with the entry into the 2013 Credit Agreement.
	On September 19, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2013 Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement Amendment"), with Interflora, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto, and the administrative agent. The Credit Agreement Amendment amended and restated the 2013 Credit Agreement in its entirety (as amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement"). Among other things, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provided for a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million and provided for a revolving loan advance (the "Acquisition Advance") to finance the cash portion of the Acquisition purchase price.
	The proceeds of the term loan were used to repay a portion of outstanding revolving loans and, on December 31, 2014, the Company borrowed $120 million under the Acquisition Advance to fund the cash portion of the Acquisition purchase price. The obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of FTD Companies, Inc.'s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (together with FTD Companies, Inc., the "U.S. Loan Parties"). In addition, the obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the U.S. Loan Parties, including a pledge of all of the outstanding capital stock of certain direct subsidiaries of the U.S. Loan Parties (except with respect to foreign subsidiaries and certain domestic subsidiaries whose assets consist primarily of foreign subsidiary equity interests, in which case such pledge is limited to 66% of the outstanding capital stock).
	The interest rates applicable to borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are based on either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.50% per annum to 2.50% per annum, or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.50% per annum to 1.50% per annum, calculated according to the Company's net leverage ratio. The initial base rate margin was 0.75% per annum and the initial LIBOR margin was 1.75% per annum. At December 31, 2014, the base rate margin was 1.0% per annum and the LIBOR margin was 2.0% per annum. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee ranging from 0.20% per annum to 0.40% per annum on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The interest rates (based on LIBOR) at December 31, 2014 under the term loan and the revolving credit facility were both 2.17%. The commitment fee rate at December 31, 2014 was 0.30%. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, affirmative covenants and negative covenants, that, among other things, require the Company to maintain compliance with a maximum net leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, and impose restrictions and limitations on, among other things, investments, dividends, share repurchases, and asset sales, and the Company's ability to incur additional debt and additional liens.
	The term loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments and customary mandatory prepayments under certain conditions. The outstanding balance of the term loan and all amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due upon maturity in September 2019. The future minimum principal payments through the maturity date of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were as follows at December 31, 2014 (in thousands):

	2011 Credit Agreement
	Prior to entering into the 2013 Credit Agreement, the Company had outstanding debt under the 2011 Credit Agreement. On June 10, 2011, FTD Group entered into a credit agreement (the "2011 Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders, to refinance its previously outstanding credit facility. The 2011 Credit Agreement provided FTD Group with a $315 million senior secured credit facility consisting of (i) a $265 million seven-year term loan (the "2011 Term Loan") and (ii) a $50 million five-year revolving credit facility (the "2011 Revolving Credit Facility"), and certain other financial accommodations, including letters of credit.
	The interest rates on both the 2011 Term Loan and the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility under the 2011 Credit Agreement were either a base rate plus 2.5% per annum, or LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum (with a LIBOR floor of 1.25% in the case of the 2011 Term Loan and step downs in the LIBOR margin on the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility depending on FTD Group's net leverage ratio). In addition, there was a commitment fee, which was equal to 0.45% per annum on the unused portion of the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility.
	The refinancing of both the 2013 Credit Agreement and the 2011 Credit Agreement were accounted for in accordance with ASC 470, Debt. Losses on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million and $2.3 million were recorded in interest expense in connection with the refinancing of the 2013 Credit Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2014 and the 2011 Credit Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively.

	In March 2012, the Company entered into forward starting interest rate cap instruments based on 3-month LIBOR that are effective from January 2015 to June 2018 and have aggregated notional values totaling $130 million. The interest rate cap instruments are designated as cash flow hedges against expected future cash flows attributable to future 3-month LIBOR interest payments on a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Company's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The gains or losses on the instruments are reported in other comprehensive income to the extent that they are effective and will be reclassified into earnings when the expected future cash flows, beginning in January 2015 through June 2018 and attributable to future 3-month LIBOR interest payments, are recognized in earnings.
	The estimated fair values and notional values of outstanding derivative instruments at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands):

	The effective portion, before tax effect, of the Company's interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedging instruments was $1.5 million and $0.7 million at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, $0.5 million of which was expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations within the next 12 months. There was no ineffectiveness related to the Company's forward foreign currency exchange contracts designated as net investment hedging instruments for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.
	During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts which were not designated as hedging instruments. Accordingly, gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of such contracts are reflected in other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, the Company had no forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding.

	The Company estimated the fair value of its long-term debt using a discounted cash flow approach that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration and risk profile. In determining the market interest yield curve, the Company considered, among other factors, its estimated credit spread. At December 31, 2014, the Company estimated its credit spread as 2.0% and 2.6% for the term loan and revolving credit facility, respectively, resulting in yield-to-maturity estimates for the term loan and revolving credit facility of 3.6% and 4.2%, respectively. At December 31, 2013, the Company estimated its credit spread as 2.0% for the revolving credit facility, resulting in a yield-to-maturity estimate of 3.5%.

	Capital Stock
	Immediately prior to the Separation, the authorized shares of FTD Companies, Inc. capital stock were increased from 10,000 to 65,000,000, divided into 60,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The 10,000 shares of FTD common stock, par value $0.01 per share, that were previously issued and outstanding, were automatically reclassified as and became 18,583,927 shares of common stock. On November 1, 2013, United Online's net investment in FTD was re-designated as FTD stockholders' equity and allocated between common stock and additional paid-in-capital based on the number of shares of FTD common stock outstanding. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued 10,203,010 shares of FTD common stock to Liberty which represented approximately 35% of the issued and outstanding shares of FTD common stock as of December 31, 2014.
	At December 31, 2014, none of the 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock were outstanding, and the Company has no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock. The Company's board of directors has the authority, without action by the Company's stockholders, to designate and issue the preferred stock in one or more series and to designate the rights, preferences, limitations and privileges of each series of preferred stock, which may be greater than the rights of the Company's common stock.
	Dividends
	The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock since the Separation on November 1, 2013.
	Common Stock Repurchases
	On February 27, 2014, the Company's board of directors authorized a common stock repurchase program (the "Program") that allows FTD Companies, Inc. to repurchase up to $50 million of FTD common stock from time to time over a two-year period in both open market and privately negotiated transactions. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had not repurchased any shares under the Program.
	Upon vesting of RSUs or exercise of stock options, the Company does not collect the minimum statutory withholding taxes in cash from employees. Instead, the Company automatically withholds, from the RSUs that vest or stock options exercised, the portion of those shares with a fair market value equal to the amount of the minimum statutory withholding taxes due. The withheld shares are accounted for as repurchases of common stock but are not considered repurchases under the Program. The Company then pays the minimum statutory withholding taxes in cash. During the year ended December 31, 2014, 205,663 RSUs vested for which 74,252 shares were withheld to cover the minimum statutory withholding taxes of $2.4 million.

	FTD Companies, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan
	The FTD Companies, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2013 Plan") authorizes the granting of awards to employees and non-employee directors, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSUs, and other stock-based awards. Under the 2013 Plan, 1.6 million shares of FTD common stock have been reserved for issuance of awards. At December 31, 2014, 0.3 million shares were available for issuance under the 2013 Plan.
	Conversion of United Online Stock Options and Stock Unit Awards
	Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company's employees were generally eligible to participate in the stock-based compensation plans of United Online. Under these plans, certain employees of the Company received grants of RSUs and stock options for United Online common stock. Additionally, all eligible Company employees were provided the opportunity to participate in United Online's employee stock purchase plan prior to the Separation. In connection with the Separation, equity awards previously granted under the stock-based compensation plans of United Online, and outstanding at the Separation date, were adjusted and converted into new equity awards under the 2013 Plan as follows:
	•	Employee stock options and RSUs were adjusted and converted into new equity awards for FTD common stock using a formula designed to preserve the intrinsic value and fair value of the awards immediately prior to the Separation. Such formula was based on the volume-weighted-average price for the three trading days immediately preceding and the three trading days immediately following the distribution date. Converted awards retained the same terms and conditions and vesting schedule, issuance dates and expiration dates as the original United Online awards. The conversion of stock options resulted in an immaterial (less than $0.1 million) modification of those RSUs and stock option awards under ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Awards for 0.5 million shares of FTD common stock were issued under the 2013 Plan as a result of the conversion.
	•	The United Online RSUs held by Mark R. Goldston and directors of United Online that were outstanding immediately prior to the Separation vested on November 1, 2013, subsequent to the Separation, and were settled (i) in the case of one-half of such RSUs, in United Online common stock; and (ii) in the case of the remaining one-half of such RSUs, in FTD common stock. The number of shares of United Online and FTD common stock was determined by utilizing the same conversion adjustment mechanisms used to convert the United Online stock options and RSUs noted above. As a result of the conversion, 42,634 shares of FTD common stock and options to purchase 0.2 million shares of FTD common stock were issued.
	Stock-Based Compensation
	The following table summarizes the non-cash stock-based compensation incurred under the 2013 Plan and the United Online stock-based compensation plans that has been included in the consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):
			Year Ended December 31,

	Total stock-based compensation		$	7,351		$	3,965		$	4,348
	Tax benefit recognized		$	2,158		$	1,144		$	988
	Allocated expenses from United Online included stock-based compensation of $0.9 million for the ten months ended October 31, 2013, and $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, for the employees of United Online whose cost of services were partially allocated to the Company. These costs are not reflected in the table above; however, these costs were included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by United Online see Note 5—"Transactions with Related Parties."
	Restricted Stock Units
	RSUs have been granted to certain employees of the Company and represent the right to receive unrestricted shares of common stock based on service. Compensation cost is recognized over the service period. The fair value of each grant is equal to the share price at the date of grant. RSUs generally vest over a one- to four-year period under a variety of vesting schedules and are canceled upon termination of employment.
	In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into new employment agreements with certain executives which provided for the grant of RSUs valued at $1.5 million. These RSUs will vest at the rate of one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, December 31, 2014.
	The following table summarizes activity for RSUs awarded to the Company's eligible employees during the year ended December 31, 2014:
			FTD			Weighted-Average
			Restricted Stock			Grant Date
			Units			Fair Value
			(in thousands)
	Nonvested at December 31, 2013			532		$	24.08

	Cancelled			(19	)	$	25.77
	Nonvested at December 31, 2014			584		$	27.68
	The weighted-average grant date fair value of RSUs granted to the Company's eligible employees during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 was $32.13, $25.11 (after giving effect to the conversion at the Separation), and $18.99, respectively. The fair value of RSUs that vested during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 was $5.0 million, $5.5 million, and $3.2 million, respectively. The intrinsic value of nonvested RSUs awarded to the Company's eligible employees was $20.3 million at December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, 0.5 million nonvested RSUs were expected to vest, with an intrinsic value totaling $18.8 million. At December 31, 2014, total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested RSUs, net of expected forfeitures, was $12.1 million, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years.
	Stock Option Awards
	Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the grant date, and generally vest over a three- or four-year period under a variety of vesting schedules and are canceled upon termination of employment. Stock option grants expire after 10 years unless canceled earlier due to termination of employment. Upon the exercise of a stock option award, shares of common stock are issued from authorized but unissued shares. Stock-based compensation is measured at fair value and expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
	The following table summarizes stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2014 and stock options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2014:
			FTD			Weighted-Average			Weighted-Average		Aggregate
			Options			Exercise Price			Remaining		Intrinsic Value

	Expected to vest at December 31, 2014			232		$	31.29			8.9	$	820
	FTD granted stock options for 0.2 million and 0.1 million shares to Company employees during the year ended December 31, 2014 and the period November 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013, respectively. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these stock options was $13.77 and $14.22 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the period November 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013, respectively. United Online did not grant any stock options to Company employees during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. At December 31, 2014 total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options awarded to the Company's eligible employees, net of expected forfeitures, was $2.9 million, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years. No stock options were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2012. Cash of $4.8 million was received from the exercise of stock options in the year ended December 31, 2013. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $1.7 million.
	Prior to November 1, 2013, for stock-based compensation awards granted by the Company's former parent, United Online, stock-based compensation expense was determined using United Online's assumptions for volatility, dividend yield and expected term. For stock options granted by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the period from November 1 to December 31, 2013, the fair value of stock options granted was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The table below summarizes the weighted average assumptions used by the Company to estimate the fair value of stock options at the grant date:
			For the Year			For the Period
			Ended			November 1,
			December 31,			2013 through
			2014			December 31,
						2013
	Risk-free interest rate			2.0	%		1.8	%
	Expected term (in years)			6.25			6.0
	Dividend yield			0	%		0	%
	Expected volatility			42.1	%		46.2	%
	The risk-free interest rate assumed by the Company in valuing stock options was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company used the simplified method for estimating the expected term because the Company did not have adequate historical data to estimate expected term. The Company estimated the dividend yield as 0% as the Company does not currently intend to pay dividends. During both the year ended December 31, 2014 and the period from November 1 to December 31, 2013, the Company calculated expected stock price volatility based on a combination of the historical volatility of both the Company's and United Online's common stock as the Company represented a significant portion of consolidated United Online prior to the Separation and the Company does not yet have sufficient history on which to base an assumption solely on its historical volatility. For awards granted prior to the Separation, United Online's assumptions at the time of the grant were used.
	Employee Stock Purchase Plans
	Prior to the Separation, United Online maintained the 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, under which eligible employees could authorize payroll deductions of up to 15% of their compensation to purchase shares of United Online common stock on two purchase dates each year at a purchase price per share equal to 85% of the lower of (i) the closing market price per share of United Online common stock on the employee's entry date into the two-year offering period in which the purchase date occurs or (ii) the closing market price per share of United Online common stock on the purchase date. Each offering period generally has a 24-month duration and purchase intervals of six months.
	In connection with the Separation, on October 31, 2013, each outstanding stock purchase right under United Online's 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan automatically was exercised by applying the payroll deductions or other permitted contributions of each participant thereunder to the purchase of shares of United Online common stock at the purchase price per share in effect for that purchase interval. These purchased shares of United Online common stock were subject to a conversion adjustment mechanism similar to that described above related to other FTD equity awards.
	In January 2014, eligible employees of the Company were able to begin participating in the FTD Amended and Restated 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"). On October 30, 2014, the FTD board of directors approved the termination of the ESPP, which termination will be effective as of May 1, 2015, following the close of the six-month purchase interval under the ESPP that ends on April 30, 2015.
	The fair value of the ESPP shares and the United Online 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan shares were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
			FTD Assumptions		United Online Assumptions
			For the Year		For the Period		For the Year
Ended December 31,			January 1, 2013 through		Ended December 31,
2014			October 31, 2013		2012
Risk-free interest rate		0.20%		0.20%		0.20%
Expected term (in years)		0.5 - 2.0		0.5 - 2.0		0.5 - 2.0
Dividend yield		—		7.60%		7.60%
Expected volatility		29.70%		37.40%		37.40%
The risk-free interest rate assumed by the Company in valuing stock options was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The expected term represents the amount of time remaining in the respective offering period. The Company estimated the dividend yield as 0% as the Company does not currently intend to pay dividends. Subsequent to the Separation, volatility has been determined based on a combination of the Company's and United Online's historical volatility as the Company represented a significant portion of consolidated United Online prior to the Separation and the Company does not yet have sufficient history to base an assumption on solely its historical volatility. For awards granted prior to the Separation, United Online's assumptions at the time of the grant were used.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recognized $0.4 million of stock-based compensation related to the ESPP. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation related to the United Online 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

	Through October 31, 2013, the Company was included in the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return of United Online, as well as certain state tax returns where United Online files on a combined basis. In addition, the Company files tax returns as a separate company in various local and state jurisdictions, the U.K. and certain other foreign jurisdictions. The 2013 provision for income taxes was computed under the separate return method, in accordance with ASC 740. Prior to the Separation, current income tax liabilities were settled with United Online through intercompany cash transfers.
	As part of the Separation, FTD entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement with United Online, which governs United Online and FTD's rights, responsibilities and obligations after the Separation with respect to the payment of taxes, including any taxes that may be imposed that arise from the failure of the distribution to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code and sets forth the respective obligations among the Company and United Online with respect to the preparation and filing of tax returns, the administration of tax audits and disputes and other tax matters. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company paid $13.2 million to United Online in respect of U.S. federal and state income tax amounts relating to periods prior to the Separation. This amount was recorded in income taxes payable on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2014, the amount payable to United Online was $0.5 million, which was paid in January 2015. With that payment, the Company has settled all current tax liabilities with United Online.
	The Company recorded an income tax payable of $8.0 million at December 31, 2012 related to amounts to be settled with United Online for U.S. federal and state income tax returns. In February 2013, the income tax payable was paid to United Online in respect of tax payments made by United Online on the Company's behalf.

	At December 31, 2013, the Company had a valuation allowance relating to foreign tax credits of $3.6 million. During the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company utilized $1.0 million and $1.1 million, of foreign tax credit carryforwards and reduced the corresponding valuation allowance, respectively. Also during the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company released the remaining valuation allowance balance of $2.8 million as, based on current estimates, the Company determined that it was more-likely-than-not going to utilize the foreign tax credits. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including our operating results, ongoing tax planning, and forecasts of future taxable income on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. The Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards which begin to expire in 2015.
	At December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits totaling $0.6 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of which $0.5 million, $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, would have an impact on the Company's effective income tax rate, if recognized. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits (before federal impact of state items), excluding interest and penalties, was as follows (in thousands):
		Year Ended December 31,
		2014			2013			2012

Ending balance	$	542		$	620		$	527
The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and certain state, local and foreign tax authorities. The examinations are in varying stages of completion. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by tax authorities. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, case law developments and closing of statutes of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the provision for income taxes, as appropriate. Tax years prior to 2009 are generally not subject to examination by the IRS except for items involving tax attributes that have been carried forward to tax years whose statute of limitations remains open. With few exceptions, the Company is not subject to state or local examinations for years prior to 2008. In the U.K., tax years 2010 and prior are closed to audit due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. The Company is generally not able to reliably estimate the ultimate settlement amounts until the close of the audit. While the Company does not expect material changes, it is possible that the amount of unrecognized benefit with respect to its uncertain tax positions could significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months related to the Company's ongoing audits. At this time, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of the range of impact on the balance of uncertain tax positions or the impact on the effective income tax rate related to such positions.
The Company had immaterial amounts accrued for interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2014 and 2013, which are included in income taxes payable. The Company recognized immaterial amounts of net interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
EARNINGS PER SHARE	13. EARNINGS PER SHARE
	Certain of the Company's RSUs are considered participating securities because they contain a non-forfeitable right to dividends, irrespective of whether dividends are actually declared or paid or the awards ultimately vest. Accordingly, the Company computes earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share.
	The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (in thousands, except per share amounts):
		Year Ended December 31,
		2014			2013		2012

	Diluted earnings per common share	$	1.17		$	0.67	$	1.14
	Immediately prior to the Separation, the authorized shares of FTD Companies, Inc. capital stock were increased from 10,000 to 65,000,000, divided into 60,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The 10,000 shares of FTD common stock, par value $0.01 per share, that were previously issued and outstanding were automatically reclassified as and became 18,583,927 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. In connection with the Separation, on November 1, 2013, holders of United Online common stock received one share of FTD common stock for every five shares of United Online common stock held on October 10, 2013, the record date. The same number of shares was used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share for periods prior to the Separation since no FTD stock-based awards were outstanding prior to the Separation. In addition, in connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued 10,203,010 shares of FTD common stock to Liberty, which are included in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share at December 31, 2014.
	The diluted earnings per common share computations exclude stock options and RSUs which are antidilutive. Weighted-average antidilutive shares for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.3 million and less than 0.1 million, respectively.

In addition, in conjunction with the Acquisition, at December 31, 2014, the Company accrued for severance payments due to certain executives related to change of control provisions in their employment contracts.

	The Company leases certain office space, data centers, distribution centers, vehicles, and office equipment under operating leases expiring at various periods through 2023. Certain of the Company's operating leases include rent holidays, as well as rent escalation provisions. The future minimum lease payments shown in the above table include those related to Provide Commerce leases. The Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Rent expense under operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 was $2.4 million, $2.2 million, and $2.1 million, respectively, which excludes rent expense related to Provide Commerce leases as the Acquisition was completed on December 31, 2014.
	Letters of Credit
	Standby letters of credit are maintained by the Company to secure credit card processing activity and certain inventory purchases. The Company had $2.4 million of commitments under letters of credit at December 31, 2014 which were scheduled to expire within one year.
	Other Commitments
	In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, sureties and insurance companies, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company's breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. FTD has entered into indemnification agreements with its current and former directors and certain of its officers and employees that require FTD, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. In addition, FTD has also agreed to indemnify certain former officers, directors and employees of acquired companies in connection with the acquisition of such companies. FTD maintains director and officer insurance, which may, in certain circumstances, cover specified liabilities, including those arising from its obligation to indemnify its current and former directors, certain of its officers and employees, and certain former officers, directors and employees of acquired companies.
	It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of exposure under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Such indemnification agreements may not be subject to maximum loss clauses.
	Legal Matters
	In 2010, FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Online) received subpoenas from the Attorney General for the State of Kansas and the Attorney General for the State of Maryland, respectively. These subpoenas were issued on behalf of a Multistate Work Group that consists of the Attorneys General for the following states: Alabama, Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, New Mexico, New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin. The primary focus of the inquiry concerns certain post-transaction sales practices in which these companies previously engaged with certain third-party vendors. In the second quarter of 2012, FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. received an offer of settlement from the Multistate Work Group consisting of certain injunctive relief and the consideration of two areas of monetary relief: (1) restitution to consumers and (2) a $20 million payment by these companies for the violations alleged by the Multistate Work Group and to reimburse the Multistate Work Group for its investigation costs. FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. rejected the Multistate Work Group's offer. FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. have since had ongoing discussions with the Multistate Work Group regarding a negotiated resolution, with the most recent proposal made by the companies on December 23, 2014 to resolve the matter without admitting liability by making a settlement payment in an aggregate amount of $8 million relating to both companies and $2.5 million restitution by Classmates, Inc. to a group of purchasers of its subscription services. On January 15, 2015, the Multistate Work Group responded to the companies' December 23, 2014 offer with a counter offer seeking a payment from FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. of $8 million and restitution from Classmates, Inc. of $3 million. FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. have not yet responded to the Multistate Work Group's latest counter offer. While the companies anticipate that settlement discussions will be ongoing, there can be no assurances as to the terms on which the companies and the Multistate Work Group may agree to settle this matter, or that any settlement of this matter may be reached. If no settlement is reached, certain Attorneys General of the Multistate Work Group may file litigation against FTD.COM and Classmates, Inc. and, in the event of litigation, FTD.COM intends to vigorously defend itself.
	The Company cannot predict the outcome of these or any other governmental investigations or other legal actions or their potential implications for its business. There are no assurances that additional governmental investigations or other legal actions will not be instituted in connection with the Company's former post-transaction sales practices or other current or former business practices.
	The Separation and Distribution Agreement which was executed between FTD and United Online in connection with the Separation provides United Online with the right to control the litigation and settlement of certain litigation matters that relate to United Online, its predecessors and its consolidated subsidiaries and the Company, its predecessors and its consolidated subsidiaries, and which were asserted before the Separation, as well as specified litigation matters which are asserted after the Separation. These matters include the ongoing matters relating to the Company's former post-transaction sales practices or other current or former business practices described above. The Separation and Distribution Agreement also provides for the allocation of liabilities and expenses between United Online and the Company with respect to these matters. It also establishes procedures with respect to claims subject to indemnification, insurance claims, and related matters. The Company and United Online may not prevail in existing or future claims and any judgments against the Company, or settlement or resolution of such claims may involve the payment of significant sums, including damages, fines, penalties, or assessments, or changes to the Company's business practices.
	In December 2008, Interflora, Inc. (in which the Company has a two- thirds ownership interest) and Interflora issued proceedings against Marks and Spencer plc ("Marks and Spencer") seeking injunctive relief, damages, interest, and costs in an action claiming infringement of U.K. trademark registration number 1329840 and European Community trademark registration number 909838, both for the word "Interflora". Marks and Spencer did not make a counterclaim. In July 2009, the High Court of Justice of England and Wales (the "High Court"), referred certain questions to the Court of Justice of European Union ("CJEU") for a preliminary ruling. In September 2011, the CJEU handed down its judgment on the questions referred by the High Court. In February 2012, the High Court scheduled the trial for April 2013. In September 2012, Interflora executed an indemnity agreement by which Interflora agreed to indemnify Interflora, Inc. against all losses and expenses arising out of this action which Interflora, Inc. may incur after July 10, 2012. The trial in this matter concluded in April 2013. In May 2013, the High Court ruled that Marks and Spencer infringed the Interflora trademarks. In June 2013, the High Court issued an injunction prohibiting Marks and Spencer from infringing the Interflora trademarks in specified jurisdictions and ordered Marks and Spencer to provide certain disclosures in order for damages to be quantified. The High Court granted Marks and Spencer permission to appeal the ruling. The appeal was heard by the Court of Appeal at a hearing held July 8-10, 2014. On November 5, 2014, the Court of Appeal issued its judgment upholding the appeal but did not determine the case in favor of either party, and instead remitted the case for a retrial by the High Court. On November 12, 2014, the Court of Appeal determined the order from its judgment, which became effective as of November 18, 2014, setting aside the order of the High Court from June of 2013. Pursuant to the order, Interflora made an interim payment of $0.3 million to Marks and Spencer towards the cost of the appeal and repaid the $1.8 million payment on account of its costs of the first High Court trial that Marks and Spencer was ordered to pay to Interflora in 2013. The part of the order lifting the injunction prohibiting Marks and Spencer from infringing the Interflora trademarks was lifted on December 2, 2014. No date or other directions have been set for the retrial.
	Commencing on August 19, 2009, the first of a series of consumer class action lawsuits was brought against Provide Commerce, Inc. and co-defendant Regent Group, Inc. d/b/a Encore Marketing International ("EMI"). These cases were ultimately consolidated during the next three years into Case No. 09-CV-2094 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California under the title In re EasySaver Rewards Litigation. Plaintiffs' claims arise from their online enrollment in subscription-based membership programs known as EasySaver Rewards, RedEnvelope Rewards, and Preferred Buyers Pass (collectively the "Membership Programs"). Plaintiffs claim that after they ordered items from certain of Provide Commerce's websites, they were presented with an offer to enroll in one of the Membership Programs, each of which is offered and administered by EMI. Plaintiffs purport to represent a putative nationwide class of consumers allegedly damaged by Provide Commerce's purported unauthorized or otherwise allegedly improper transferring of the putative class members' billing information to EMI, who then posted allegedly unauthorized charges to their credit or debit card accounts for membership fees for the Membership Programs. On February 22, 2010, Provide Commerce and EMI respectively filed motions to dismiss. On August 13, 2010, the court entered an order granting in part and denying in part the motions. Between August 13, 2010 and December 2011, plaintiffs filed various amended complaints and added or dismissed certain named plaintiffs. Plaintiffs filed the fourth amended complaint on December 14, 2011. The fourth amended complaint is the operative complaint. Plaintiffs assert ten claims against Provide Commerce and EMI in the fourth amended complaint: (1) breach of contract (against Provide Commerce only); (2) breach of contract (against EMI only); (3) breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (4) fraud; (5) violations of the California Consumers Legal Remedies Act; (6) unjust enrichment; (7) violation of the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (against EMI only); (8) invasion of privacy; (9) negligence; and (10) violations of the Unfair Competition Law. Plaintiffs assert their claims individually and on behalf of a putative nationwide class. Plaintiffs sought damages, attorneys' fees, and costs. Provide Commerce and EMI filed motions to dismiss the claims of plaintiffs Lawler, Walters, Cox, and Dickey on January 24, 2012. The motions to dismiss were fully briefed as of February 23, 2012, but the court had not yet conducted a hearing or ruled on the motions. The parties participated in numerous settlement conferences and mediations throughout the case in an effort to resolve this matter. On April 9, 2012, the parties reached an agreement on the high-level terms of a settlement, conditioned on the parties negotiating and executing a complete written agreement. In the weeks following April 9, 2012, the parties negotiated a formal written settlement agreement ("Settlement" or "Agreement"). Upon reaching the Settlement, the hearing on the motions to dismiss was vacated, and Provide Commerce and EMI have not answered the fourth amended complaint in light of the Settlement. The Court granted the Plaintiffs' unopposed motion for preliminary approval of the Settlement on June 13, 2012. After notice to the class and briefing by the parties, the court conducted a final approval hearing (also known as a fairness hearing) on January 28, 2013, and took the matter under submission at the conclusion of the hearing. On February 4, 2013, the court entered its final order approving class action settlement, granting plaintiffs' motion for attorneys' fees, costs, and incentive awards, and overruling objections filed by a single objector to the Settlement. The court entered judgment on the settlement on February 21, 2013. The objector filed a notice of appeal with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on March 4, 2013. After the completion of briefing, the Ninth Circuit set oral argument on the appeal for February 2, 2015. But on January 29, 2015, the Ninth Circuit entered an order deferring argument and resolution of the appeal pending the Ninth Circuit's decision in a matter captioned Frank v. Netflix, No. 12-15705+. The Ninth Circuit issued its opinion in Frank v. Netflix, No. 12-15705+ on February 27, 2015, affirming the district court's approval of a settlement between Walmart and a class of Netflix DVD subscribers. It is unclear whether any of the parties to the Frank v. Netflix appeal will take further action before the Ninth Circuit or U.S. Supreme Court or when final resolution of the Frank v. Netflix appeal will occur. As such, the Ninth Circuit has not re-set oral argument or entered any other order since in this matter. The appeal of the Settlement remains pending.
	The Company records a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company may be unable to estimate a possible loss or range of possible loss due to various reasons, including, among others: (i) if the damages sought are indeterminate, (ii) if the proceedings are in early stages, (iii) if there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals, motions or settlements, (iv) if there are significant factual issues to be determined or resolved, and (v) if there are novel or unsettled legal theories presented. In such instances, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of such matters, including a possible eventual loss, if any. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had reserves totaling $5.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for estimated losses related to certain legal matters. At December 31, 2014, reserves related to Provide Commerce matters were recorded based on the Company's preliminary estimates. With respect to other legal matters, the Company has determined, based on its current knowledge, that the amount of possible loss or range of loss, including any reasonably possible losses in excess of amounts already accrued, is not reasonably estimable. However, legal matters are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the Company's control. As such, there can be no assurance that the final outcome of these matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ACCOUNTING POLICIES, AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ACCOUNTING POLICIES, AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions, other than those with the Company's former parent, United Online, when we were wholly-owned by United Online, have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The consolidated financial statements reflect the historical financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation include expense allocations for certain corporate functions performed by United Online. Management believes the assumptions underlying such financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from United Online, were reasonable. Nevertheless, the consolidated financial statements may not reflect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, had the Company been a stand-alone company prior to the Separation. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by United Online and the settlement of such costs, see Note 5—"Transactions with Related Parties." Actual costs that would have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company prior to the Separation would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structures and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.
	The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make accounting policy elections, estimates and assumptions that affect a number of reported amounts and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that it believes are reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Emerging Growth Company Reporting Requirements	"Emerging Growth Company" Reporting Requirements
	The Company qualifies as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act"). For as long as the Company is deemed to be an "emerging growth company," the Company may take advantage of certain exemptions from various regulatory reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies. Among other things, the Company is not required to (1) provide an auditor's attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company's system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) comply with any new rules that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about the audit and the financial statements of the issuer, (3) comply with any new audit rules adopted by the PCAOB after April 5, 2012 unless the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") determines otherwise, (4) comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards applicable to public companies until such standards are also applicable to private companies under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, (5) provide certain disclosure regarding executive compensation required of larger public companies, or (6) hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and obtain stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
	As an "emerging growth company," the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until such standards are also applicable to private companies. As a result of this election, the Company's financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with non-emerging growth companies' effective dates for such new or revised standards.
	The Company will remain an "emerging growth company" until the earliest of (1) the last day of the first fiscal year in which total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (2) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a "large accelerated filer," as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act or any successor statute, which would occur if the market value of the Company's common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter, (3) the date on which the Company issues more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period, or (4) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company anticipates that it will no longer qualify as an "emerging growth company" as of December 31, 2015.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers cash equivalents to be only those investments which are highly liquid, readily convertible to cash and which have a maturity date within three months from the date of purchase. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were maintained primarily with major financial institutions and brokerage firms in the U.S. and the U.K. Deposits with these institutions generally exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.
Accounts Receivable, including Financing Receivables	Accounts Receivable, including Financing Receivables
	The Company's accounts receivable are derived primarily from revenues earned from floral network members located in the U.S. and the U.K. The Company extends credit based upon an evaluation of the customer's financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable and, to date, such losses have been within management's expectations.
	The Company evaluates specific accounts receivable where information exists that the customer may have an inability to meet its financial obligations. In these cases, based on reasonably available facts and circumstances, a specific allowance is recorded for that customer against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount that is expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received that impacts the amount of the allowance. Also, an allowance is established for all customers based on the aging of the receivables. If circumstances change (i.e., higher than expected delinquencies or an unexpected material adverse change in a customer's ability to meet its financial obligations), the estimates of the recoverability of amounts due to the Company are adjusted. The Company aggressively pursues collection of past due receivables through a number of avenues prior to writing off receivables. Past due receivables are those that remain outstanding beyond the payment due date.
	The Company has financing receivables related to equipment sales to floral network members. The Company records all financing receivables at fair value and amortizes such receivables to stated value. The current and noncurrent portions of financing receivables are included in accounts receivable and other assets, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes interest income as earned. The Company assesses credit quality indicators based on whether financing receivables are current or past due. Financing receivables are placed on nonaccrual status, with interest no longer accruing, when a floral network member ceases to be a member, either due to the member terminating its membership or due to the Company terminating such member's membership, generally as a result of delinquent payments or violations of FTD's network standards. The Company would not expect to resume the accrual of interest income unless a member who had terminated its membership chooses to be reinstated as a member at a later date and agrees to a plan to pay its balance, if any, that remains outstanding. The Company assesses financing receivables individually for balances due from current floral network members and collectively for balances due from terminated floral network members. A financing receivable is considered to be impaired when the Company determines that it is probable that it will not be able to collect amounts due under the contractual terms. The Company does not record interest income for impaired receivables. If cash is received, the receivable balance is reduced and related credit allowance adjusted accordingly. Fair value approximates the carrying amount of financing receivables because such receivables are discounted at a rate comparable to market.
Inventory	Inventory
	Other than acquired inventory related to the Acquisition, which is stated at the Company's preliminary estimate of fair value, the Company's inventories, which consist primarily of products held for sale, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory is valued using the weighted-average cost method. The Company regularly assesses the valuation of inventory and reviews inventory quantities on hand and, if necessary, writes down excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on the age of the inventory and forecasts of product demand, as well as markdowns for the excess of cost over the amount the Company expects to realize from the sale of certain inventory.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment
	Other than acquired property and equipment related to the Acquisition, which are stated at the Company's preliminary estimate of fair value, property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally two to three years for computer software and computer equipment, three to seven years for furniture and fixtures, twenty-five to forty years for buildings, and five to forty years for building improvements. Leasehold improvements, which are included in furniture and fixtures, are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or ten years. Upon the sale or retirement of property or equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the Company's consolidated financial statements with the resulting gain or loss reflected in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Derivative Instruments	Derivative Instruments
	The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company maintains interest rate cap instruments to reduce its interest rate risk associated with future cash interest payments on a portion of its outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as defined below). In addition, at times the Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the risk that its net investments in foreign subsidiaries, cash flows and earnings will be adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company records derivative instruments at fair value in other current assets, other assets or accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company records changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of derivative instruments as interest expense or other income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations or in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets. Neither the interest rate caps nor the forward foreign currency exchange contracts contain any credit risk-related contingent features. The Company's hedging program is not designed for trading or speculative purposes.
	Net Investment Hedges—For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a hedge of a net investment, the gain or loss is reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets to the extent the hedge is effective, with the related amounts due to or from counterparties included in accrued liabilities or other current assets, respectively. The Company utilizes the forward-rate method of assessing hedge effectiveness. Gains or losses related to any ineffective portions of net investment hedges are recognized in other income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company presents the cash flows of net investment hedges in investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
	Cash Flow Hedges—The Company's interest rate cap instruments are designated as cash flow hedges against expected future cash flows attributable to future interest payments on a portion of its outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Company initially reports the gains or losses related to the effective portion of the hedges as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets and subsequently reclassifies the interest rate caps' gains or losses to interest expense when the hedged expenses are recorded. The Company includes the change in the time value of the interest rate caps in its assessment of their hedge effectiveness. The Company presents the cash flows from cash flow hedges in the same category in the consolidated statements of cash flows as the category for the cash flows from the hedged items.
	For additional information related to derivative instruments, see Note 8—"Derivative Instruments."
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements
	ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), establishes a three-tiered hierarchy that draws a distinction between market participant assumptions based on (i) quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1); (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). In accordance with ASC 820, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to measure fair value. If market prices are not available, fair value measurement is based upon models that use primarily market-based or independently-sourced market parameters. If market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques are not available, the Company will be required to make judgments about assumptions market participants would use in estimating the fair value of the financial instrument. Fair values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and short-term borrowings approximate their carrying amounts because of their short-term nature. Derivative instruments are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. The fair values for the interest rate caps are calculated using an option pricing model based on available forward yield curves for caplets with the same characteristics adjusted for the counterparty risk of nonperformance based on the credit spread derived from the applicable five-year default swap rates. The fair values of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts are calculated based on quoted market prices of similar instruments adjusted for counterparty risk of nonperformance. The key assumptions used in calculating the fair value of these derivative instruments are the forward rates, discount rate and implied volatility. Long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. However, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of long-term debt under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, based on the discounted cash flow method. The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices of comparable risk bonds using market prices and expected future interest rates based on quoted market rates from the U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swap curve.
Acquisitions	Acquisitions
	The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired businesses to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction at their estimated fair values. The estimates used to determine the fair value of long-lived assets, such as intangible assets, can be complex and require significant judgments. The Company uses information available to it to make fair value determinations and engages independent valuation specialists, when necessary, to assist in the fair value determination of significant acquired long-lived assets. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as a part of the purchase price allocation process, such estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company is also required to estimate the useful lives of intangible assets to determine the amount of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense to record in future periods. The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives assigned to its intangible assets to determine whether such estimated useful lives continue to be appropriate.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired entity over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired in a business combination are initially recorded at management's estimate of their fair value. The Company accounts for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not subject to amortization but are reviewed for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would indicate it is more-likely-than-not that the goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangible assets might be impaired. Testing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or intangible asset to its carrying value. If the carrying amount of the goodwill or intangible asset exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.
	In calculating the fair value of the reporting units, the Company used a combination of the market approach and the income approach valuation methodologies. Under the market approach the Company used the guideline company method, which focuses on comparing the risk profile and growth prospects to select reasonably similar companies based on business description, revenue size, markets served and profitability. The key assumptions used in the income approach discounted cash flow valuation model included discount rates, growth rates, cash flow projections, and terminal growth rates. The discount rate utilized is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in a similar business. Considering industry and company-specific historical data and internal forecasts and projections, management developed growth rates and cash flow projections for each reporting unit. In determining the terminal growth rates, the Company considered GDP growth, consumer price inflation and the long-term growth prospects of each reporting unit. The discount rate, growth rates, cash flow projections and terminal growth rates are also significant estimates used in the determination of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets.
	Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is a component of a business or a group of businesses for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by management. Prior to the Separation, the Company reported operating results as one operating and reportable segment, but had two reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill, the FTD reporting unit and the Interflora reporting unit. With the management changes that occurred in conjunction with the Separation, the Company began reporting its business operations in three operating and reportable segments: Consumer, Florist, and International. These reportable segments were also the Company's reporting units prior to the Acquisition on December 31, 2014. The Company performed its annual goodwill assessment for these three reporting units as of October 1, 2014. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company's operating and reportable segments changed to include a fourth segment, Provide Commerce. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2014, the Company's operating and reportable segments consist of Consumer, Florist, International and Provide Commerce.
Finite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets	Finite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets
	The Company accounts for finite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are initially recorded at management's estimate of their fair values. The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets, other than indefinite-lived intangible assets, for impairment when events occur or circumstances change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may indicate that an asset is impaired include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in the market value of an asset, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, a change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, shifts in technology, significant negative industry or economic trends, changes in the Company's operating model or strategy, and competitive forces. In determining if an impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets. If an impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets' carrying amounts and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the respective fair values of the assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from two to fifteen years. The Company's identifiable intangible assets were acquired primarily in connection with business combinations.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition
	The Company applies the provisions of ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered and no significant Company obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues exclude sales taxes.
	Products revenues, less discounts and refunds, and the related cost of revenues are recognized when products are delivered to the customers. Shipping and service fees charged to customers are recognized at the time the related products revenues are recognized and are included in products revenues. Shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. The Company generally recognizes revenues for sales to consumers on a gross basis because the Company bears the risks and rewards associated with the revenue-generating activities by (i) acting as a principal in the transaction; (ii) establishing prices; (iii) being responsible for fulfillment of the order by the floral network members, third-party suppliers; (iv) taking the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns; and (v) marketing the products and services.
	The Company also sells point-of-sale systems and related technology services to its floral network members and recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605 and ASC 985, Software. The Company recognizes revenues on hardware which is sold without software at the time of delivery. For hardware sales that include software, revenues are recognized when delivery, installation and customer acceptance have all occurred.
	Services revenues related to orders sent through the floral network are variable based on either the number of orders or on the value of orders and are recognized in the period in which the orders are delivered. Membership and other subscription-based fees are recognized monthly as earned, on a month-to-month basis.
	Probability of collection is assessed based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer. If it is determined that collectability is not reasonably assured, revenues are not recognized until collectability becomes reasonably assured.
Cost of Revenues	Cost of Revenues
	Cost of revenues primarily include product costs; shipping and delivery costs; costs associated with taking orders; printing and postage costs; systems installation, training and support costs; telecommunications and data center costs; depreciation of network computers and equipment; license fees; costs related to customer billing and billing support for the Company's floral network members; fees associated with the storage and processing of customer credit cards and associated bank fees; domain name registration fees; and personnel and overhead-related costs associated with operating the Company's networks.
Sales and Marketing	Sales and Marketing
	Sales and marketing expenses include expenses associated with promoting the Company's brands, products and services. Such expenses include advertising and promotion expenses; fees paid to online and other corporate partners and to floral network members related to order volume sent through the Company's floral network; and personnel and overhead-related expenses for marketing, merchandising, customer service and sales personnel. In addition, sales and marketing expenditures also include branding and customer acquisition campaigns consisting of television, internet, radio public relations, sponsorships, print, and outdoor advertising, and retail and other performance-based distribution relationships. Marketing and advertising costs to promote the Company's brands, products and services are expensed in the period incurred. Advertising expenses include media, agency and promotion expenses. Media production costs are expensed the first time the advertisement is run. Media and agency costs are expensed over the period the advertising runs. Advertising and promotion expenses for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 were $69.5 million, $63.0 million, and $63.7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, $2.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of prepaid advertising and promotion expenses were included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Software Development Costs	Software Development Costs
	The Company accounts for costs incurred to develop software for internal-use in accordance with ASC 350, which requires such costs be capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Such capitalized costs include external direct costs incurred in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees who are directly associated with developing the applications. Capitalization of such costs begins when the preliminary project stage is complete and ceases at the point in which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. The Company capitalized costs associated with internal-use software totaling $3.7 million and $4.7 million in the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over each project's estimated useful life, which is generally three to five years. Capitalized internal-use software, which was valued in connection with the acquisition of FTD Group by United Online in 2008, is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and was amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years. This internal-use software became fully amortized in 2013. The estimated preliminary fair value of capitalized internal-use software valued in connection with the Acquisition is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, which we preliminarily estimate to be five years. All other capitalized internal-use software is included in the computer software category within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets.
Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed	Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed
	The Company follows the provisions of ASC 985, which requires that all costs relating to the purchase or internal development and production of computer software products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed be expensed in the period incurred unless the requirements for technological feasibility have been established. The Company capitalizes all eligible computer software costs incurred once technological feasibility is established. The Company amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over a period of three to five years. At both December 31, 2014 and 2013, the carrying amount of capitalized computer software costs related to the purchase or internal development and production of computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed was $0.6 million, and is included within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company amortized and recognized associated depreciation expense of $0.4 million, $2.5 million, and $3.9 million, respectively, related to these capitalized computer software costs. Software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, which was valued in connection with the acquisition of FTD Group by United Online in 2008, is included in the complete technology category within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and became fully amortized in 2013. All other software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed is included in the computer software category within property and equipment, net, in the consolidated balance sheets.
General and Administrative	General and Administrative
	General and administrative expenses include personnel-related expenses for executive, finance, legal, human resources, technology, facilities, and internal audit. In addition, general and administrative expenses include, among other costs, maintenance of existing software, technology and websites; development of new or improved software technology; professional fees for legal, accounting, and financial services; insurance; occupancy and other overhead-related costs; non-income taxes; bad debt expense; reserves or expenses related to litigation, investigations, or similar matters; and gains and losses on sales of assets. These include direct expenses incurred by FTD, as well as general corporate costs which were allocated to FTD by United Online prior to the Separation. General and administrative expenses also include expenses resulting from actual or potential transactions such as acquisitions, spin-offs, financing transactions, and other strategic transactions.
Restructuring and Other Exit Costs	Restructuring and Other Exit Costs
	Restructuring and other exit costs consist of costs associated with the realignment and reorganization of the Company's operations and other employee termination events. Restructuring and other exit costs include employee termination costs, facility closure and relocation costs, and contract termination costs. The timing of associated cash payments is dependent upon the type of exit cost and can extend over a 12-month period. The Company records restructuring and other exit costs liabilities in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation
	Prior to the Separation, the Company's employees were generally eligible to participate in the stock-based compensation plans of United Online. Under these plans, certain employees of the Company received grants of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and stock options for United Online common stock. Additionally, all eligible Company employees were provided the opportunity to participate in United Online's employee stock purchase plan. In connection with the Separation, equity awards previously granted under the stock-based compensation plans of United Online and outstanding at the Separation date, were adjusted and converted into new FTD equity awards under the FTD Companies, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan, later amended and restated as the FTD Companies, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan. For additional information related to equity awards and the conversion of United Online equity awards at the Separation date, see Note 11—"Incentive Compensation Plans."
	Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. The fair value of RSUs is based on the closing stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which utilizes various assumptions including expected volatility and expected term. For awards issued by the Company, the simplified method was used to determine the term and the forfeiture rates were based on historical trends for the Company's employees. Volatility was determined based on a combination of the Company's and United Online's historical volatility as the Company represented a significant portion of consolidated United Online prior to the Separation and the Company does not yet have sufficient history to base the assumption on solely its historical volatility. For awards granted prior to the Separation, United Online's assumptions at the time of the grant were used.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)	Comprehensive Income (Loss)
	The Company follows the provisions of ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. For the Company, comprehensive income (loss) primarily consists of its reported net income, changes in unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, net of tax, and foreign currency translation.
Foreign Currency Translation	Foreign Currency Translation
	The Company accounts for foreign currency translation in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The functional currency of each of the Company's international subsidiaries is its respective local currency, with the exception of India for which it is the U.S. dollar. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated to U.S. Dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes
	Through October 31, 2013, the Company was included in the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return of United Online, as well as certain state tax returns where United Online files on a combined basis. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, and computes the provision for income taxes on a separate return basis. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. In evaluating the Company's ability to recover its deferred tax assets, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including its operating results, ongoing tax planning and forecasts of future taxable income on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes, in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of the Company's tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share
	The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain of the Company's RSUs are considered participating securities because they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends irrespective of whether dividends are actually declared or paid or the awards ultimately vest.
Legal Contingencies	Legal Contingencies
	The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings and investigations. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company may be unable to estimate a possible loss or range of possible loss due to various reasons, including, among others: (i) if the damages sought are indeterminate, (ii) if the proceedings are in early stages, (iii) if there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals, motions or settlements, (iv) if there are significant factual issues to be determined or resolved, and (v) if there are novel or unsettled legal theories presented. In such instances, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of such matters, including a possible eventual loss, if any. The Company continually assesses the potential liability related to such pending matters. Legal matters are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the Company's control. As such, there can be no assurance that the final outcome of these matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Operating Leases	Operating Leases
	The Company leases space for warehouses, call center facilities, office space, distribution facilities, technology development and support, and data centers, and leases certain vehicles and office equipment under operating lease agreements with original lease periods of up to thirteen years. Certain of the lease agreements contain rent holidays and rent escalation provisions. Rent holidays and rent escalation provisions are considered in determining straight-line rent expense to be recorded over the lease term. The lease term begins on the date of initial possession of the leased property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, as codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740. The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. However, to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This ASU applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU affect any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update on its consolidated financial statements.
	In January 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items, which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items from GAAP. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the requirement that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments should be applied prospectively and retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
