In order to leverage the Company’s infrastructure, these functions are operated under a centralized management platform, providing support services throughout the organization. The costs of these functions, other than those of the Customer Service Center, which are allocated directly to the above categories based upon usage, are included within corporate expenses as they are not directly allocable to a specific segment. The Company has established a NQDC Plan for certain members of senior management. Deferred compensation plan assets are invested in mutual funds held in a “rabbi trust,” which is restricted for payment to participants of the NQDC Plan. Trading securities held in a rabbi trust are measured using quoted market prices at the reporting date and are included in the “Other assets” line item, with the corresponding liability included in the “Other liabilities” line item in the consolidated balance sheets. 00010848692023-07-032023-12-31 xbrli:shares 0001084869us-gaap:CommonClassAMember2024-02-02

Note 1 Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2023, which provides a more complete understanding of our accounting policies, financial position, operating results and other matters.

 

The Company’s quarterly results may experience seasonal fluctuations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, and its continued expansion into non-floral products, the Thanksgiving through Christmas holiday season, which falls within the Company’s second fiscal quarter, is expected to generate over 40% of the Company’s annual revenues, and all of its earnings. Due to the number of major floral gifting occasions, including Mother's Day, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Administrative Professionals Week, revenues also have historically risen during the Company’s fiscal third and fourth quarters in comparison to its fiscal first quarter.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by discounts and estimates for credits and returns (calculated based upon previous experience and management’s evaluation). Service and outbound shipping charged to customers are recognized at the time the related merchandise revenues are recognized and are included in net revenues. Inbound and outbound shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. Net revenues exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers.

 

A description of our principal revenue generating activities is as follows:

 

E-commerce revenues - consumer products sold through our online and telephonic channels. Revenue is recognized when control of the merchandise is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. Payment is typically due prior to the date of shipment.

Retail revenues - consumer products sold through our retail stores. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, at the point of sale, at which time payment is received.

Wholesale revenues - products sold to our wholesale customers for subsequent resale. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement. Payment terms are typically 30 days from the date control over the product is transferred to the customer.

BloomNet Services - membership fees as well as other service offerings to florists. Membership and other subscription-based fees are recognized monthly as earned. Services revenues related to orders sent through the floral network are variable, based on either the number of orders or the value of orders, and are recognized in the period in which the orders are delivered. The contracts within BloomNet Services are typically month-to-month and, as a result, no consideration allocation is necessary across multiple reporting periods. Payment is typically due less than 30 days from the date the services were performed. 

 

6

 

Deferred Revenues

 

Deferred revenues are recorded when the Company has received consideration (i.e. advance payment) before satisfying its performance obligations. As such, customer orders are recorded as deferred revenue prior to shipment or rendering of product or services. Deferred revenues primarily relate to e-commerce orders placed, but not shipped, prior to the end of the fiscal period, as well as for subscription programs, including our various food, wine, and plant-of-the-month clubs and our Celebrations Passport® program.

 

Our total deferred revenue as of July 2, 2023 was $30.8 million (included in “Accrued expenses” on our consolidated balance sheets), of which $10.7 million and $26.8 million was recognized as revenue during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. The deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2023 was $39.9 million.  

 

Impairment Evaluation

 

The Company performs its annual assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment during its fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment  may exist. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename (indefinite-lived intangible asset), as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required for this tradename. This assessment resulted in the Company recording a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename.

 

The Company concluded that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, excluding its PersonalizationMall tradename, did not require an impairment assessment. See Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net for further information.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, includes enhanced interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contains other disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires the disclosure of additional information with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires greater detail about significant reconciling items in the reconciliation. Additionally, the amendment requires disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 2 Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income during the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share:

Note 3 Acquisitions

 

Acquisition of Things Remembered

 

On January 10, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of the Things Remembered brand, a provider of personalized gifts, whose operations are integrated within the PersonalizationMall.com brand, in the Consumer Floral & Gifts segment. The Company used cash on hand to fund the $5.0 million purchase, which included the intellectual property, customer list, certain inventory, and equipment. The acquisition did not include Things Remembered retail stores. Things Remembered’s annual revenues from its e-commerce operations, based on its most recently available unaudited financial information was $30.4 million for the twelve months ended November 30, 2022.

 

The total consideration of $5.0 million was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our estimates of their fair values on the acquisition date, including: goodwill of $1.9 million (deductible for income tax purposes), trademarks of $0.8 million (indefinite life), customer lists of $0.8 million (3-year life), inventory of $1.1 million, and equipment of $0.4 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company finalized its purchase price allocation, resulting in immaterial adjustments to the preliminary carrying value of the respective recorded assets and the residual amount that was allocated to goodwill.

 

Operating results of the Things Remembered business are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition within the Consumer Floral & Gifts segment. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented, as the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results was not material.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename (indefinite-lived intangible asset), as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required. The Company’s impairment test for the indefinite-lived intangible asset encompassed calculating a fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and comparing that result to its carrying value. To determine fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset, the Company used an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to obtain the rights to use the comparable asset. Indefinite-lived intangible assets’ fair values require significant judgments in determining both the assets’ estimated cash flows as well as the appropriate discount and royalty rates applied to those cash flows to determine fair value. Based on the impairment assessment performed for the quarter ending December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename to its estimated fair value. This impairment charge was recorded in the Company’s Consumer Floral & Gifts reporting unit.

 

The Company concluded that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, excluding its PersonalizationMall tradename, did not require an impairment assessment.

  

 

Note 6 Investments

 

Equity investments without a readily determinable fair value

 

Investments in non-marketable equity instruments of private companies, where the Company does not possess the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for at cost, less impairment (assessed qualitatively at each reporting period), adjusted for observable price changes from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. These investments are included within “Other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate carrying amount of the Company’s equity investments without a readily determinable fair value was $2.6 million as of December 31, 2023 and July 2, 2023, respectively. 

 

Equity investments with a readily determinable fair value

 

The Company also holds certain trading securities associated with its Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“NQDC Plan”). These investments are measured using quoted market prices at the reporting date and are included within the “Other assets” line item in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements). 

  

 

Note 7 Debt, Net

 

The Company’s current and long-term debt consists of the following:

On June 27, 2023, the Company, certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Third Amended Credit Agreement”). The Third Amended Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2019 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of August 20, 2020, the Second Amendment, dated as of November 8, 2021, and the Third Amendment, dated as of August 29, 2022). The Third Amended Credit Agreement, among other modifications: (i) increases the amount of the outstanding term loan (“Term Loan”) from approximately $150 million to $200 million, (ii) decreases the amount of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility from $250 million to $225 million subject to a seasonal reduction to an aggregate amount of $125 million for the period from January 1 to August 1, (iii) extends the maturity date of the outstanding term loan and the revolving credit facilities by approximately 48 months to June 27, 2028, and (iv) increases the applicable interest rate margins for SOFR and base rate loans by 25 basis points.

 

10

 

For each borrowing under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, the Company may elect that such borrowing bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (1) a base rate plus an applicable margin varying based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, where the base rate is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the New York fed bank rate plus 0.5%, and (c) an adjusted SOFR rate plus an applicable margin varying based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The adjusted SOFR rate includes a credit spread adjustment of 0.1% for all interest periods.

 

The Third Amended Credit Agreement requires that while any borrowings or commitments are outstanding the Company comply with certain financial covenants and affirmative covenants as well as certain negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and make certain restricted payments. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2023. The Third Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

 

The principal of the Term Loan is payable at a rate of $2.5 million for the first 8 quarterly installments beginning on September 29, 2023, increasing to a quarterly payment of $5.0 million, commencing on September 26, 2025, for the remaining 11 payments, with the remaining balance of $125.0 million due upon maturity on June 27, 2028.

 

Future principal term loan payments under the Third Amended Credit Agreement are as follows: $5.0 million – remainder of Fiscal 2024, $10.0 million – Fiscal 2025, $20.0 million – Fiscal 2026, $20.0 million – Fiscal 2027, and $140.0 million – Fiscal 2028.

Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements

 

Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, prepaids, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Although no trading market exists, the Company believes that the carrying amount of its debt approximates fair value due to its variable nature (these are level 2 investments). The Company’s investments in non-marketable equity instruments of private companies are carried at cost and are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment when an event or circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. The Company’s remaining financial assets and liabilities are measured and recorded at fair value (see table below). The Company’s non-financial assets, such as definite lived intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at cost and are assessed for impairment when an event or circumstance indicates that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment may exist, as required under the accounting standards.

 

11

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the guidance are described below:

 

Level 1

Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

Level 2

Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3

Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The following table presents by level, within the fair value hierarchy, financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company has established a NQDC Plan for certain members of senior management. Deferred compensation plan assets are invested in mutual funds held in a “rabbi trust,” which is restricted for payment to participants of the NQDC Plan. Trading securities held in a rabbi trust are measured using quoted market prices at the reporting date and are included in the “Other assets” line item, with the corresponding liability included in the “Other liabilities” line item in the consolidated balance sheets. 

  

 

Note 10 Income Taxes

 

The Company computed the interim tax provision using an estimated annual effective rate, adjusted for discrete items. This estimate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 was 29.6% and 33.8% respectively, compared to 25.5% and 25.7% in the same periods of the prior year. The Company’s effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by tax credits and other items. Fiscal 2024 was further impacted by the impairment charge, which reduced the amount of income reflected in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions, and various foreign countries. The Company’s fiscal years 2020, 2021, and 2022 remain subject to U.S. federal examination. Due to ongoing state examinations and nonconformity with the U.S. federal statute of limitations for assessment, certain states remain open from fiscal 2016. The Company's foreign income tax filings from fiscal 2017 are open for examination by its respective foreign tax authorities, mainly Canada and Brazil.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. At December 31, 2023, the Company has an unrecognized tax benefit, including accrued interest and penalties, of approximately $1.6 million. The Company believes that $0.1 million of unrecognized tax positions will be resolved over the next twelve months.

Note 11 Business Segments

 

The Company’s management reviews the results of its operations by the following three business segments:

 

Consumer Floral & Gifts,

BloomNet, and

Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets

 

Segment performance is measured based on contribution margin, which includes only the direct controllable revenue and operating expenses of the segments. As such, management’s measure of profitability for these segments does not include the effect of corporate overhead (see (a) below), nor does it include depreciation and amortization, other (income) expense, net and income taxes, or stock-based compensation, which are included within corporate overhead. Assets and liabilities are reviewed at the consolidated level by management and not accounted for by segment.

Note 12 Leases

 

The Company currently leases plants, warehouses, offices, store facilities, and equipment under various leases through fiscal 2036. Most lease agreements are of a long-term nature (over a year), although the Company does also enter into short-term leases, primarily for seasonal needs. Lease agreements may contain renewal options and rent escalation clauses and require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and operating expenses applicable to the leased properties. The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842.

 

At contract inception, the Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease by determining whether it conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time, by assessing whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

 

At the lease commencement date, the Company determines if a lease should be classified as an operating or a finance lease (the Company currently has no finance leases) and recognizes a corresponding lease liability and a right-of-use asset on its Balance Sheet. The lease liability is initially and subsequently measured as the present value of the remaining fixed minimum rental payments (including base rent and fixed common area maintenance) using discount rates as of the commencement date. Variable payments (including most utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and variable common area maintenance) are expensed as incurred. Further, the Company elected a short-term lease exception policy, permitting it to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and an accounting policy to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for certain classes of assets. The right-of-use asset is initially and subsequently measured at the carrying amount of the lease liability adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, remaining balance of lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, or impairment charges relating to the right-of-use asset. Right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment using the long-lived assets impairment guidance. The discount rate used to determine the present value of lease payments is the Company’s estimated collateralized incremental borrowing rate, based on the yield curve for the respective lease terms, as the Company generally cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease.

 

The Company recognizes expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As these leases expire, it can be expected that in the normal course of business they will be renewed or replaced. Renewal option periods are included in the measurement of lease liability, where the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. Key estimates and judgments in accounting for leases include how the Company determines: (1) lease payments, (2) lease term, and (3) the discount rate used in calculating the lease liability.

Macro-economic Conditions

 

Overall, broader macro-economic conditions continue to impact our consumers as they continue to moderate their discretionary income. Consumers remain pressured by persistent inflation, higher interest rates, and the resumption of student loan repayments. Throughout the first half of fiscal 2024, we have seen that customer spending on “Everyday” gifting occasions has slowed, whereas spending for the major holidays has held up better. However, customers did remain more conservative regarding their holiday spending than originally anticipated.  In line with this, total consolidated revenues decreased 8.4% to $822.1 million and 9.2% to $1.09 billion during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared with the same periods of the prior year. As we look ahead to the second half of fiscal 2024, we continue to expect our sales trends to improve albeit at a slower pace than initially anticipated.

 

The challenging macro-economic conditions that have affected our customers have also impacted our operating costs. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, in-bound and out-bound shipping, commodity, labor and fuel costs began to surge, and escalated throughout the balance of the year and into fiscal 2023. During our second quarter and third quarter of fiscal 2023, while certain commodity prices remained near historical highs, we began to see a more stable labor market, and significant year-over-year reductions in ocean freight costs. As a result of these trends, combined with our strategic pricing initiatives, automation efforts, and other internal management initiatives, we started to see year-over-year improvement in gross margin commencing in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. These trends and initiatives continued into fiscal 2024 and we saw a significant improvement in year-over-year gross margin in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024. This improvement and a reduction of expenses helped to offset the aforementioned year-over-year decline in sales.

 

Intangible Impairment

 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename, as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required for this tradename. This assessment resulted in the Company recording a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename. See Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net for further information.

 

 

 

Acquisition of Things Remembered

 

On January 10, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of the Things Remembered brand, a provider of personalized gifts, whose operations have been integrated within the PersonalizationMall.com brand, in the Consumer Floral & Gifts segment. The Company used cash on hand to fund the $5.0 million purchase, which included intellectual property, customer list, certain inventory, and equipment - see Note 3 Acquisitions in Item 1

 

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

 

On June 27, 2023, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other modifications, (i) increase the amount of the outstanding term loan from approximately $150 million to $200 million, (ii) decrease the amount of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility from $250 million to $225 million subject to a seasonal reduction to an aggregate amount of $125 million for the period from January 1 to August 1, (iii) extend the maturity date of the outstanding term loan and the revolving credit facilities by approximately 48 months to June 27, 2028, and (iv) increase the applicable interest rate margins for SOFR and base rate loans by 25 basis points (See Note 7 - Debt, in Item 1, for details).

 

Company Guidance

 

The Company is updating its Fiscal 2024 guidance to reduce its revenue outlook for the full year, while maintaining its Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow expectations, as the improvement in gross profit margin and the company’s expense optimization efforts are expected to mitigate the softer than anticipated revenue improvement.

 

As a result, the Company now expects Fiscal 2024:

 

 

total revenues on a percentage basis to decline in a range of 7% to 9%, as compared with the prior year;

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of $95 million to $100 million; and

 

 

Free Cash Flow to be in a range of $60 million to $65 million.

 

Refer to "Definitions of non-GAAP Financial Measures" for reconciliation of non-GAAP results to applicable GAAP results.

 

Definitions of non-GAAP Financial Measures:

 

We sometimes use financial measures derived from consolidated financial information, but not presented in our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Certain of these are considered "non-GAAP financial measures" under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules. See below for definitions and the reasons why we use these non-GAAP financial measures.  Where applicable, see the Segment Information and Results of Operations sections below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are referred to as “non-GAAP” or “adjusted” below, as these terms are used interchangeably. Reconciliations for forward-looking figures would require unreasonable efforts at this time because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of certain components of various necessary GAAP components, including, for example, those related to compensation, tax items, amortization or others that may arise during the year, and the Company's management believes such reconciliations would be confusing or misleading to investors. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The lack of such reconciling information should be considered when assessing the impact of such disclosures.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for the impact of stock-based compensation, Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“NQDC Plan”) Investment appreciation/depreciation, and certain items affecting period-to-period comparability. See Segment Information for details on how EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA were calculated for each period presented.

 

The Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because it considers such information meaningful supplemental measures of its performance and believes such information is frequently used by the investment community in the evaluation of similarly situated companies. The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as factors to determine the total amount of incentive compensation available to be awarded to executive officers and other employees. The Company's credit agreement uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to determine its interest rate and to measure compliance with certain covenants. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by the Company to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates.

 

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations are: (a) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs; (b) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company's debts; and (c) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such capital expenditures. EBITDA should only be used on a supplemental basis combined with GAAP results when evaluating the Company's performance.

 

Segment contribution margin and adjusted segment contribution margin

 

We define segment contribution margin as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, before the allocation of corporate overhead expenses. Adjusted segment contribution margin is defined as contribution margin adjusted for certain items affecting period-to-period comparability. See Segment Information for details on how segment contribution margin was calculated for each period presented.

 

When viewed together with our GAAP results, we believe segment contribution margin and adjusted segment contribution margin provide management and users of the financial statements meaningful information about the performance of our business segments.

 

Segment contribution margin and adjusted segment contribution margin are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. The material limitation associated with the use of segment contribution margin and adjusted segment contribution margin is that they are an incomplete measure of profitability as they do not include all operating expenses or non-operating income and expenses. Management compensates for this limitation when using this measure by looking at other GAAP measures, such as operating income and net income. 

 

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted or comparable net income (loss) per common share

 

We define adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted or comparable net income (loss) per common share as net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share adjusted for certain items affecting period-to-period comparability. See Segment Information below for details on how adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted or comparable net income (loss) per common share were calculated for each period presented.

 

We believe that adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted or comparable net income (loss) per common share are meaningful measures because they increase the comparability of period-to-period results.

 

Since these are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, GAAP net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share, as indicators of operating performance and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. 

 

Free Cash Flow

 

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures. The Company considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of fixed assets, which can then be used to, among other things, invest in the Company’s business, make strategic acquisitions, strengthen the balance sheet, and repurchase stock or retire debt. Free cash flow is a liquidity measure that is frequently used by the investment community in the evaluation of similarly situated companies.

 

Since free cash flow is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the company's cash balance for the period.

(a) Segment performance is measured based on segment contribution margin or segment Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting only the direct controllable revenue and operating expenses of the segments, both of which are non-GAAP measurements. As such, management’s measure of profitability for these segments does not include the effect of corporate overhead, described above, depreciation and amortization, other income (net), and other items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance.

 

(b) Corporate expenses consist of the Company’s enterprise shared service cost centers, and include, among other items, Information Technology, Human Resources, Accounting and Finance, Legal, Executive and Customer Service Center functions, as well as Stock-based compensation. In order to leverage the Company’s infrastructure, these functions are operated under a centralized management platform, providing support services throughout the organization. The costs of these functions, other than those of the Customer Service Center, which are allocated directly to the above categories based upon usage, are included within corporate expenses as they are not directly allocable to a specific segment.

Net revenues decreased 8.4% and 9.2% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, due to lower order volume across all segments, reflecting a continuation of the trends that the Company had experienced throughout the prior fiscal year, as consumer discretionary income remains pressured and consumers continue to moderate their spending. Contributing to this decline was the prudent use of promotional offerings and advertising campaigns, which balance the long-term goals of the Company with strategies to improve gross margins and tightly control operating expenses during this challenging economic environment.

 

The Company acquired Things Remembered on January 10, 2023 and launched the brand on its e-commerce platform in April 2023. Things Remembered revenues were not significant during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023.

Revenue by sales channel:

 

E-commerce revenues (combined online and telephonic) decreased 6.6% and 7.9% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, primarily due to the decline in demand across all our segments, as a result of the macro-economic conditions noted above, which have negatively impacted consumer discretionary spending, combined with planned reductions in advertising spend.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company fulfilled approximately 7.9 million and 10.5 million orders through its e-commerce sales channel (online and telephonic sales), a decrease of 9.0% and 10.8%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, average order value increased 2.7% and 3.4%, to $93.14 and $90.06, respectively, as a result of product mix into higher price point items, including bundles, and customer mix with more affluent consumers buying at a higher rate than less affluent.

 

Other revenues are comprised of the Company’s BloomNet segment, as well as the wholesale and retail channels of its Consumer Floral & Gifts and Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets segments.

 

Other revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, decreased 22.2% and 17.1%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, due to lower wholesale volumes within the Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets segment, as well as lower BloomNet revenues due to lower shop-to-shop volumes, as well as wholesale volumes.

 

Revenue by segment:

 

Consumer Floral & Gifts – this segment, which includes the operations of the 1-800-Flowers.com, PersonalizationMall, and Alice’s Table brands, and the Things Remembered brand, subsequent to its acquisition on January 10, 2023, derives revenue from the sale of consumer floral products and gifts through its e-commerce sales channels (telephonic and online sales), retail stores, and royalties from its franchise operations. 

 

Net revenues within this segment decreased 8.0% and 9.6% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, due to the continued economic pressure, which was combined with planned reductions in advertising spend, as the brands focused their efforts on improving gross margin and operating spend efficiency, in the face of softening demand.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, Consumer Floral & Gifts orders through its e-commerce sales channel (online and telephonic sales) decreased 10.4% and 12.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, however this was partially offset by an increase in average order value of 2.6% and 3.0%, respectively, as a result of product mix into higher price point items, including bundles, and customer mix with more affluent consumers buying at a higher rate than less affluent.

 

BloomNet - revenues in this segment are derived from membership fees, as well as product and service offerings.

 

Net revenues decreased 17.1% and 15.3% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year. The net revenue decline was due to soft wholesale product revenues, as well as lower services revenues, attributable to a decline in order volume processed through the network.

 

Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets – this segment includes the operations of Harry & David, Wolferman’s, Cheryl’s Cookies, The Popcorn Factory, 1-800-Baskets/DesignPac, Shari’s Berries, and Vital Choice. Revenue is derived from the sale of gourmet fruits, cookies, baked gifts, premium chocolates and confections, gourmet popcorn, gift baskets, dipped berries, prime steaks, chops, and fish, through the Company’s e-commerce sales channels (telephonic and online sales) and company-owned and operated retail stores under the Harry & David and Cheryl’s brand names, as well as wholesale operations.

 

Net revenues within this segment decreased 8.2% and 8.4% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, as a result of lower e-commerce and wholesale revenues, primarily due to macro-economic weakness, combined with planned reductions in advertising spend, as the brands focused their efforts on improving gross margin and operating spend efficiency in the face of softening demand.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets orders through its e-commerce sales channel (online and telephonic sales) decreased 7.9% and 9.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year, however this was partially offset by an increase in average order value of 2.3% and 3.1%, respectively, as a result of product mix into higher price point items, including bundles, and customer mix with more affluent consumers buying at a higher rate than less affluent.

Income Taxes

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $26.5 million and $16.2 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to an income tax expense of $28.3 million and $16.9 million, during the three and six months ended January 1, 2023, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, was 29.6% and 33.8%, respectively, compared to 25.5% and 25.7% in the same periods of the prior year. The Company’s effective tax rate for fiscal 2023 and 2024 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by tax credits and other items. Fiscal 2024, was further impacted by the impairment charge, which reduced the amount of income reflected in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity and borrowings

 

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flows generated from operations, and borrowings available under the Company’s credit agreement (see Note 7 - Debt in Item 1 for details). At December 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of $202.5 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $312.0 million, compared to working capital of $152.9 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $126.8 million, at July 2, 2023. 

 

Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, and its continued expansion into non-floral products, the Thanksgiving through Christmas holiday season, which falls within the Company’s second fiscal quarter, is expected to generate over 40% of the Company’s annual revenues, and all of its earnings. Due to the number of major floral gifting occasions, including Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Administrative Professionals Week, revenues also have historically risen during the Company’s fiscal third and fourth quarters in comparison to its fiscal first quarter.

 

During the first two quarters of fiscal 2024, the Company borrowed under its revolving credit agreement in order to fund pre-holiday manufacturing and inventory procurement requirements, with borrowings peaking at $82.0 million in November 2023. Cash generated from operations during the Christmas holiday shopping season enabled the Company to repay the borrowings under the Revolver in December 2023. Based on current projected cash flows, the Company believes that available cash balances will be sufficient to provide for the Company’s operating needs through the remainder of fiscal 2024, at which time the Company would again expect to borrow against its Revolver to fund pre-holiday manufacturing and inventory purchases. The Company had no amounts outstanding under its Revolver as of December 31, 2023.

 

While we believe that our sources of funding will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next twelve months, any projections of future cash needs and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty. We continually evaluate, and will, from time to time, consider the acquisition of, or investment in, complementary businesses, products, services, capital infrastructure, and technologies, which might affect our liquidity requirements or cause us to require additional financing.

 

Cash Flows

 

Net cash provided by operating activities of $212.8 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily attributable to the Company’s net income during the period, adjusted by non-cash charges related to the intangible impairment, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and changes in deferred income taxes, combined with seasonal changes in net working capital, including increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and trade receivables and a decrease in inventories.

 

Net cash used in investing activities of $17.8 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was attributable to capital expenditures primarily related to the Company's technology and automation initiatives.

 

Net cash used in financing activities of $9.7 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2023, related primarily to net repayment of bank borrowings under the Company’s working capital line of credit and the repurchase of common stock.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2023, the discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company’s most critical accounting policies relate to goodwill, other intangible assets and income taxes. There have been no significant changes to the assumptions and estimates related to the Company’s critical accounting policies since July 2, 2023.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 

 

See Note 1 - Accounting Policies in Item 1 for details regarding the impact of accounting standards that were recently issued on our consolidated financial statements.

 

 

Forward Looking Information and Factors that May Affect Future Results

 

Our disclosure and analysis in this report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements represent the Company’s current expectations or beliefs concerning future events and can generally be identified by the use of statements that include words such as “estimate,” “expects,” “project,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “foresee,” “forecast,” “likely,” “will,” “goal,” “target” or similar words or phrases. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including:

 

the Company’s ability:

 

 

o

to achieve revenue and profitability;

 

o

to leverage its operating platform and reduce operating expenses;

 

o

to manage the seasonality of its business;

 

o

to cost effectively acquire and retain customers;

 

to successfully integrate acquired businesses and assets;

 

to reduce working capital requirements and capital expenditures;

 

to mitigate the impact of supply chain cost and capacity constraints;

 

o

to compete against existing and new competitors;

 

o

to manage expenses associated with sales and marketing and necessary general and administrative and technology investments; and

 

to address the effects of changes in accounting policies, practices, or assumptions, including changes that could potentially require future impairment charges;

 

the outcome of contingencies, including legal proceedings in the normal course of business; and

general consumer sentiment and economic conditions that may affect, among other things, the levels of discretionary customer purchases of the Company’s products and the costs of shipping and labor.

 

We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties, and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated, or projected. Investors should bear this in mind as they consider forward-looking statements.

 

We undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our Forms 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2023 listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historic results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers can find them in Part I, Item 1A, of that filing under the heading “Cautionary Statements Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995”. We incorporate that section of that Form 10-K in this filing and investors should refer to it. In addition, please refer to any additional risk factors in Part II, Item 1A in this Form 10-Q.

 

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The Company is exposed to market risk from the effect of interest rate changes.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s investment of available cash balances and its long-term debt. The Company generally invests its cash and cash equivalents in investment grade corporate and U.S. government securities. Borrowings under the Company’s credit facility bear interest at a variable rate, plus an applicable margin, and therefore expose the Company to market risk for changes in interest rates. The effect of a 50 basis point increase in current interest rates on the Company’s interest expense would be approximately $0.3 and $0.6 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2023. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2023.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the Company’s evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, as specified above. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met.

 

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Litigation

 

There are various claims, lawsuits, and pending actions against the Company and its subsidiaries incident to the operations of its businesses. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the final resolution of such claims, lawsuits and pending actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. 

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

There were no material changes to the Company’s risk factors as discussed in Part 1, Item 1A-Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 2, 2023.

 

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The Company has a stock repurchase plan through which purchases can be made from time to time in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions, subject to general market conditions. The repurchase program is financed utilizing available cash. On April 22, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase to its stock repurchase plan of up to $40.0 million. In addition, on February 3, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase to its stock repurchase plan of up to $40.0 million. As of December 31, 2023, $27.2 million remained authorized under the plan.

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

 

THIS CONSULTING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) by and between 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc., a corporation with an address of Two Jericho Plaza, Suite 200, Jericho, New York 115753 (the “Company”), and Hanft Ideas LLC, a company controlled by Adam Hanft with an address of 50 Astor Lane, Sands Point, NY 11050 (together with Mr. Hanft, “Consultant”, and, together with Mr. Hanft and the Company, the “Parties” and, each, a “Party”) is made and entered into as of December 20, 2023 (the “Effective Date”).

 

WHEREAS, Adam Hanft currently serves as a non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to engage Consultant as an independent contractor to perform services outside the scope of Mr. Hanft’s responsibilities in his capacity as a member of the Board;

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and other good and valuable consideration set forth in the Agreement, the receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1.    Services. During the term of the Agreement (the “Term”), Consultant shall provide to the Company the consulting services described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Services”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Consultant shall, in Consultant’s sole discretion, determine the means, manner and method of performing the Services, and will devote such time, attention and skill hereunder as is necessary to render the Services. The Company shall provide Consultant with such access to its premises, information and/or data as the Company determines, in its sole discretion, is necessary for the performance of the Services. Mr. Hanft’s Board service is separate from the Services and not subject to the Agreement.

 

2.    Term. The Term shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for a period of twelve (12) months, unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 15 below.

 

3.    Fees. It is expressly understood and agreed that Consultant’s fees shall be as set forth in Exhibit A and such fees shall constitute the total consideration for everything furnished, provided, or done by Consultant in connection with the Agreement, including, without limitation, all Services rendered by Consultant, and any and all Work Product (as defined in Section 5 herein). Such fees shall be in addition to such compensation as Mr. Hanft may be entitled to receive as a member of the Board.

 

4.    Independent Contractor. It is expressly understood and agreed that Consultant is an independent contractor for the Services provided pursuant to the Agreement and Consultant is not an employee of the Company and/or any of its Affiliates (as defined in Section 6 herein). Nothing in the Agreement shall create or be construed to create any employee, partnership, joint venture or agency relationship between the Company and Consultant and Consultant shall not be considered, whether under the provisions of the Agreement or otherwise, as having the status of an employee of the Company and/or any of its Affiliates for any purpose whatsoever. In its capacity as independent contractor pursuant to the Agreement, Consultant agrees (i) to be solely responsible for the filing and payment of all income, payroll, Social Security, and/or other federal, state, or local taxes, unemployment insurance, disability insurance and/or workers’ compensation insurance required by federal, state or local law, (ii) that all payments received by Consultant from the Company will not be subject to tax withholding by the Company, and (iii) that Consultant is not covered by any health insurance, dental insurance, disability insurance, unemployment insurance, worker’s compensation, stock option, life insurance, pension, profit sharing and/or other employee benefit plan provided by or on behalf of the Company, and that Consultant has no right to nor will Consultant seek benefits or any form of payment from or through the Company under any such plans; provided that, Consultant shall be entitled to continue to be covered by the Company’s compensation and/or benefit plans, policies and programs for which Mr. Hanft may be eligible in his capacity as a member of the Board.

PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL

 

 

 

5.    Work Product. Consultant agrees that all of the results, proceeds, and deliverables of the Services, shall be owned, throughout the world, exclusively by the Company, including all copyright, trade secret, trademark, service mark, patent and all other intellectual property rights (collectively, “Intellectual Property Rights”) thereto. Consultant further agrees that all other writings, technology, inventions, discoveries, machines, formulae, improvements, software designs, computer programs, strategies, specific computer-related know-how, data, artwork, layouts, photographs, presentation files, videos, images, processes, techniques, methods, ideas, concepts, research proposals, original works of authorship, and materials, and all other work product of any nature whatsoever, that are created, prepared, produced, authored, edited, modified, conceived, or reduced to practice in the course of performing the Services, and the results thereof (collectively referred to as “Work Product”) shall be deemed as “work for hire,” of which the Company shall be deemed the author to the extent such works qualify as such in accordance with applicable law and intellectual property rights, including, but not limited to, copyright, patent, trade secret, and trademark rights, therein automatically and immediately vest in the Company. If for any reason, any Work Product may not qualify as “work for hire,” Consultant irrevocably assigns to the Company, for no additional consideration, all of Consultant’s right, title, and interest throughout the world in and to such Work Product, including the right to sue for past, present, and future infringement, misappropriation, or dilution thereof. To the extent any copyrights are assigned hereunder, Consultant hereby irrevocably waives in favor of the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any and all claims Consultant may now or hereafter have in any jurisdiction to all rights of paternity or attribution, integrity, disclosure, and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as “moral rights” in relation to all Work Product to which the assigned copyrights apply. Consultant agrees that the Company shall own all Intellectual Property Rights worldwide, with respect to any Work Product discovered, created or developed under the Agreement without regard to the origin of the Work Product and warrants and represents that Consultant has not licensed or assigned the Work Product to any other person or party and that Consultant has lawful right and authority to enter into the Agreement. Upon the reasonable request of the Company, during and after the Term, Consultant shall promptly take such further actions, including execution and delivery of all appropriate instruments of conveyance, and provide such further cooperation, as may be necessary to assist the Company to apply for, prosecute, register, maintain, perfect, record or enforce its rights in any Work Product and all intellectual property rights therein. In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to obtain Consultant’s signature on any such documents, Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company as Consultant’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on Consultant’s behalf solely to execute and file any such application or other document and do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents, copyrights, or other intellectual property protection related to the Work Product with the same legal force and effect as if Consultant had executed them. Consultant agrees that this power of attorney is coupled with an interest therein.

 

6.    Company Materials. As between Consultant and the Company, the Company is, and will remain, the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title, and interest in and to any documents, specifications, data, know-how, methodologies, software, and other materials provided or made available to Consultant by the Company (“Company Materials”), including all Intellectual Property Rights therein. Consultant has no right or license to use, publish, reproduce, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, perform, or display any Company Materials except during the Term to the extent necessary to perform Consultant’s obligations under the Agreement. All other rights in and to the Company Materials are expressly reserved by the Company. Consultant has no right or license to use the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’ trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, symbols, or brand names, unless such right or license is expressly granted by Company in a written amendment, or separate written agreement, signed by the Parties. For purposes of the Agreement, the term “Affiliate” shall mean any person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, a Party.

 

PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL

7.    Confidentiality. Consultant hereby recognizes and acknowledges that, during the course of or in connection with Consultant’s performance of the Services or other services in connection with the Agreement, the Company may provide access to or disclose to Consultant certain Confidential Information, as defined herein. For purposes of the Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information, communication or data, in any form, including, but not limited to, oral, written, graphic or electromagnetic forms, models or samples that the Company and/or any of its Affiliates desires to protect against unrestricted disclosure, access, or use, including, without limitation, the term and conditions of the Agreement, business information, network infrastructure, technology environment, floral designs and/or recipes, financial data, pricing, marketing data, plans or strategies, trade secrets, operations of the Company, its Affiliates, or their suppliers or customers, and that which is designated as proprietary or confidential. All such Confidential Information shall remain the sole property of the Company, and its confidentiality shall be maintained and protected by Consultant with the same degree of care as Consultant uses for Consultant’s own confidential and proprietary information (but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care) and Consultant shall not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than for performance of the Services, and shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party, except to persons or entities on a “need to know” basis as required to perform the Services (and provided that, prior to disclosure to such persons or entities, Consultant ensures that such persons or entities are subject to confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use obligations concerning the Confidential Information, which are at least as restrictive as the terms hereof). Any Confidential Information that Consultant develops in connection with the Services, including, but not limited to, any Work Product, shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this provision. The restrictions on the use, access, or disclosure of any Confidential Information shall not apply to information that is “Confidential Information” within the meaning hereof (i) after it has become generally available to the public without breach of the Agreement by Consultant, or (ii) which the Company authorizes in writing may be disclosed.

 

8.    Protected Rights. Consultant understands that nothing contained in the Agreement limits Consultant’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other federal, state, or local governmental regulatory or law enforcement agency (“Government Agencies”). Consultant further understands that nothing in the Agreement limits Consultant’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in or fully cooperate with any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to or approval from the Company. Consultant can provide confidential information to Government Agencies without risk of being held liable by the Company for liquidated damages or other financial penalties. The Agreement also does not limit Consultant’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agencies. Furthermore, notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement, pursuant to the Defense of Trade Secrets Act of 2016, (a) Consultant will not be held criminally liable under any federal or state trade secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to any attorney and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding, and (b) if Consultant files a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of law, Consultant may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to Consultant’s attorney and use the trade secret information in a court proceeding if it files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

10.    Compliance with Rules and Regulations. Consultant acknowledges that Consultant is (i) aware that the United States securities laws may prohibit any person who has material nonpublic information about a company from purchasing or selling securities of such company, or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such a person is likely to purchase or sell such securities, and (ii) familiar with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to the extent they relate to the matters referred to in this Section 10. In addition to the confidentiality requirements set forth in Section 7 above, Consultant agrees that Consultant shall not use or cause any third party to use, and that Consultant shall use reasonable efforts to assure that none of Consultant’s Affiliates or representatives shall use or cause any third party to use, any Confidential Information in contravention of the United States securities laws, including the Exchange Act or any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Consultant further agrees to comply with all applicable federal and state laws, including, but not limited to, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977.

 

11.    Limitation of Liability.

12.    Consultant Indemnification. Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, parents and affiliates, and assigns from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, damages, losses, deficiencies, liabilities, obligations, commitments, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in investigating and defending against the same and interest) arising out of or in connection with (i) bodily injury, death of any person, or damage to real or tangible personal property resulting from Consultant’s acts or omissions in the performance of the Services, (ii) any breach by Consultant of any of the terms of the Agreement, (iii) Consultant’s obligations under the Agreement, (iv) any negligence, willful misconduct, act or omission of Consultant in connection with the provision of Services, (v) any claim of infringement or other violation regarding the Work Product (including, without limitation, any alleged infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights), and (vi) any notice, claim, or determination by any federal, state, or local government or their agencies, including, without limitation, the Internal Revenue Service, Worker’s Compensation, Department of Labor (or other similar state department) that seeks to levy any tax or other financial obligation on the Company based on, or in any way relating to, the Company’s classification of Consultant as an independent contractor. The Company may satisfy such indemnity (in whole or in part) by way of deduction from any payment due to Consultant.

Note 1 Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2023, which provides a more complete understanding of our accounting policies, financial position, operating results and other matters.

 

The Company’s quarterly results may experience seasonal fluctuations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, and its continued expansion into non-floral products, the Thanksgiving through Christmas holiday season, which falls within the Company’s second fiscal quarter, is expected to generate over 40% of the Company’s annual revenues, and all of its earnings. Due to the number of major floral gifting occasions, including Mother's Day, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Administrative Professionals Week, revenues also have historically risen during the Company’s fiscal third and fourth quarters in comparison to its fiscal first quarter.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by discounts and estimates for credits and returns (calculated based upon previous experience and management’s evaluation). Service and outbound shipping charged to customers are recognized at the time the related merchandise revenues are recognized and are included in net revenues. Inbound and outbound shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. Net revenues exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers.

 

A description of our principal revenue generating activities is as follows:

 

E-commerce revenues - consumer products sold through our online and telephonic channels. Revenue is recognized when control of the merchandise is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. Payment is typically due prior to the date of shipment.

Retail revenues - consumer products sold through our retail stores. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, at the point of sale, at which time payment is received.

Wholesale revenues - products sold to our wholesale customers for subsequent resale. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement. Payment terms are typically 30 days from the date control over the product is transferred to the customer.

BloomNet Services - membership fees as well as other service offerings to florists. Membership and other subscription-based fees are recognized monthly as earned. Services revenues related to orders sent through the floral network are variable, based on either the number of orders or the value of orders, and are recognized in the period in which the orders are delivered. The contracts within BloomNet Services are typically month-to-month and, as a result, no consideration allocation is necessary across multiple reporting periods. Payment is typically due less than 30 days from the date the services were performed. 

 

Deferred Revenues

 

Deferred revenues are recorded when the Company has received consideration (i.e. advance payment) before satisfying its performance obligations. As such, customer orders are recorded as deferred revenue prior to shipment or rendering of product or services. Deferred revenues primarily relate to e-commerce orders placed, but not shipped, prior to the end of the fiscal period, as well as for subscription programs, including our various food, wine, and plant-of-the-month clubs and our Celebrations Passport® program.

 

Our total deferred revenue as of July 2, 2023 was $30.8 million (included in “Accrued expenses” on our consolidated balance sheets), of which $10.7 million and $26.8 million was recognized as revenue during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. The deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2023 was $39.9 million.  

 

Impairment Evaluation

 

The Company performs its annual assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment during its fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment  may exist. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename (indefinite-lived intangible asset), as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required for this tradename. This assessment resulted in the Company recording a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename.

 

The Company concluded that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, excluding its PersonalizationMall tradename, did not require an impairment assessment. See Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net for further information.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, includes enhanced interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contains other disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires the disclosure of additional information with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires greater detail about significant reconciling items in the reconciliation. Additionally, the amendment requires disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3 Acquisitions

 

Acquisition of Things Remembered

 

On January 10, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of the Things Remembered brand, a provider of personalized gifts, whose operations are integrated within the PersonalizationMall.com brand, in the Consumer Floral & Gifts segment. The Company used cash on hand to fund the $5.0 million purchase, which included the intellectual property, customer list, certain inventory, and equipment. The acquisition did not include Things Remembered retail stores. Things Remembered’s annual revenues from its e-commerce operations, based on its most recently available unaudited financial information was $30.4 million for the twelve months ended November 30, 2022.

 

The total consideration of $5.0 million was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our estimates of their fair values on the acquisition date, including: goodwill of $1.9 million (deductible for income tax purposes), trademarks of $0.8 million (indefinite life), customer lists of $0.8 million (3-year life), inventory of $1.1 million, and equipment of $0.4 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company finalized its purchase price allocation, resulting in immaterial adjustments to the preliminary carrying value of the respective recorded assets and the residual amount that was allocated to goodwill.

 

Operating results of the Things Remembered business are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition within the Consumer Floral & Gifts segment. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented, as the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results was not material.

The Company performs its annual assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment during its fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment  may exist.

 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename (indefinite-lived intangible asset), as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required. The Company’s impairment test for the indefinite-lived intangible asset encompassed calculating a fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and comparing that result to its carrying value. To determine fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset, the Company used an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to obtain the rights to use the comparable asset. Indefinite-lived intangible assets’ fair values require significant judgments in determining both the assets’ estimated cash flows as well as the appropriate discount and royalty rates applied to those cash flows to determine fair value. Based on the impairment assessment performed for the quarter ending December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename to its estimated fair value. This impairment charge was recorded in the Company’s Consumer Floral & Gifts reporting unit.

 

The Company concluded that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, excluding its PersonalizationMall tradename, did not require an impairment assessment.

Equity investments without a readily determinable fair value

 

Investments in non-marketable equity instruments of private companies, where the Company does not possess the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for at cost, less impairment (assessed qualitatively at each reporting period), adjusted for observable price changes from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. These investments are included within “Other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate carrying amount of the Company’s equity investments without a readily determinable fair value was $2.6 million as of December 31, 2023 and July 2, 2023, respectively. 

 

Equity investments with a readily determinable fair value

 

The Company also holds certain trading securities associated with its Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“NQDC Plan”). These investments are measured using quoted market prices at the reporting date and are included within the “Other assets” line item in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements).

On June 27, 2023, the Company, certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Third Amended Credit Agreement”). The Third Amended Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2019 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of August 20, 2020, the Second Amendment, dated as of November 8, 2021, and the Third Amendment, dated as of August 29, 2022). The Third Amended Credit Agreement, among other modifications: (i) increases the amount of the outstanding term loan (“Term Loan”) from approximately $150 million to $200 million, (ii) decreases the amount of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility from $250 million to $225 million subject to a seasonal reduction to an aggregate amount of $125 million for the period from January 1 to August 1, (iii) extends the maturity date of the outstanding term loan and the revolving credit facilities by approximately 48 months to June 27, 2028, and (iv) increases the applicable interest rate margins for SOFR and base rate loans by 25 basis points.

 

For each borrowing under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, the Company may elect that such borrowing bear interest at an annual rate equal to either: (1) a base rate plus an applicable margin varying based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, where the base rate is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the New York fed bank rate plus 0.5%, and (c) an adjusted SOFR rate plus an applicable margin varying based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The adjusted SOFR rate includes a credit spread adjustment of 0.1% for all interest periods.

 

The Third Amended Credit Agreement requires that while any borrowings or commitments are outstanding the Company comply with certain financial covenants and affirmative covenants as well as certain negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and make certain restricted payments. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2023. The Third Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

 

The principal of the Term Loan is payable at a rate of $2.5 million for the first 8 quarterly installments beginning on September 29, 2023, increasing to a quarterly payment of $5.0 million, commencing on September 26, 2025, for the remaining 11 payments, with the remaining balance of $125.0 million due upon maturity on June 27, 2028.

 

Future principal term loan payments under the Third Amended Credit Agreement are as follows: $5.0 million – remainder of Fiscal 2024, $10.0 million – Fiscal 2025, $20.0 million – Fiscal 2026, $20.0 million – Fiscal 2027, and $140.0 million – Fiscal 2028.

Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements

 

Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, prepaids, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Although no trading market exists, the Company believes that the carrying amount of its debt approximates fair value due to its variable nature (these are level 2 investments). The Company’s investments in non-marketable equity instruments of private companies are carried at cost and are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment when an event or circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. The Company’s remaining financial assets and liabilities are measured and recorded at fair value (see table below). The Company’s non-financial assets, such as definite lived intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at cost and are assessed for impairment when an event or circumstance indicates that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment may exist, as required under the accounting standards.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the guidance are described below:

 

Level 1

Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

Level 2

Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3

Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Note 10 Income Taxes

 

The Company computed the interim tax provision using an estimated annual effective rate, adjusted for discrete items. This estimate is used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 was 29.6% and 33.8% respectively, compared to 25.5% and 25.7% in the same periods of the prior year. The Company’s effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by tax credits and other items. Fiscal 2024 was further impacted by the impairment charge, which reduced the amount of income reflected in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions, and various foreign countries. The Company’s fiscal years 2020, 2021, and 2022 remain subject to U.S. federal examination. Due to ongoing state examinations and nonconformity with the U.S. federal statute of limitations for assessment, certain states remain open from fiscal 2016. The Company's foreign income tax filings from fiscal 2017 are open for examination by its respective foreign tax authorities, mainly Canada and Brazil.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. At December 31, 2023, the Company has an unrecognized tax benefit, including accrued interest and penalties, of approximately $1.6 million. The Company believes that $0.1 million of unrecognized tax positions will be resolved over the next twelve months.

Note 12 - Leases

Lessee, Operating Leases [Text Block]

Note 12 Leases

 

The Company currently leases plants, warehouses, offices, store facilities, and equipment under various leases through fiscal 2036. Most lease agreements are of a long-term nature (over a year), although the Company does also enter into short-term leases, primarily for seasonal needs. Lease agreements may contain renewal options and rent escalation clauses and require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and operating expenses applicable to the leased properties. The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842.

 

At contract inception, the Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease by determining whether it conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time, by assessing whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

 

At the lease commencement date, the Company determines if a lease should be classified as an operating or a finance lease (the Company currently has no finance leases) and recognizes a corresponding lease liability and a right-of-use asset on its Balance Sheet. The lease liability is initially and subsequently measured as the present value of the remaining fixed minimum rental payments (including base rent and fixed common area maintenance) using discount rates as of the commencement date. Variable payments (including most utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and variable common area maintenance) are expensed as incurred. Further, the Company elected a short-term lease exception policy, permitting it to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and an accounting policy to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for certain classes of assets. The right-of-use asset is initially and subsequently measured at the carrying amount of the lease liability adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, remaining balance of lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, or impairment charges relating to the right-of-use asset. Right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment using the long-lived assets impairment guidance. The discount rate used to determine the present value of lease payments is the Company’s estimated collateralized incremental borrowing rate, based on the yield curve for the respective lease terms, as the Company generally cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease.

 

The Company recognizes expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As these leases expire, it can be expected that in the normal course of business they will be renewed or replaced. Renewal option periods are included in the measurement of lease liability, where the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. Key estimates and judgments in accounting for leases include how the Company determines: (1) lease payments, (2) lease term, and (3) the discount rate used in calculating the lease liability.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2023, which provides a more complete understanding of our accounting policies, financial position, operating results and other matters.

 

The Company’s quarterly results may experience seasonal fluctuations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, and its continued expansion into non-floral products, the Thanksgiving through Christmas holiday season, which falls within the Company’s second fiscal quarter, is expected to generate over 40% of the Company’s annual revenues, and all of its earnings. Due to the number of major floral gifting occasions, including Mother's Day, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Administrative Professionals Week, revenues also have historically risen during the Company’s fiscal third and fourth quarters in comparison to its fiscal first quarter.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

 

Net revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by discounts and estimates for credits and returns (calculated based upon previous experience and management’s evaluation). Service and outbound shipping charged to customers are recognized at the time the related merchandise revenues are recognized and are included in net revenues. Inbound and outbound shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. Net revenues exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers.

 

A description of our principal revenue generating activities is as follows:

 

E-commerce revenues - consumer products sold through our online and telephonic channels. Revenue is recognized when control of the merchandise is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. Payment is typically due prior to the date of shipment.

Retail revenues - consumer products sold through our retail stores. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, at the point of sale, at which time payment is received.

Wholesale revenues - products sold to our wholesale customers for subsequent resale. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement. Payment terms are typically 30 days from the date control over the product is transferred to the customer.

BloomNet Services - membership fees as well as other service offerings to florists. Membership and other subscription-based fees are recognized monthly as earned. Services revenues related to orders sent through the floral network are variable, based on either the number of orders or the value of orders, and are recognized in the period in which the orders are delivered. The contracts within BloomNet Services are typically month-to-month and, as a result, no consideration allocation is necessary across multiple reporting periods. Payment is typically due less than 30 days from the date the services were performed. 

 

Deferred Revenues

 

Deferred revenues are recorded when the Company has received consideration (i.e. advance payment) before satisfying its performance obligations. As such, customer orders are recorded as deferred revenue prior to shipment or rendering of product or services. Deferred revenues primarily relate to e-commerce orders placed, but not shipped, prior to the end of the fiscal period, as well as for subscription programs, including our various food, wine, and plant-of-the-month clubs and our Celebrations Passport® program.

 

Our total deferred revenue as of July 2, 2023 was $30.8 million (included in “Accrued expenses” on our consolidated balance sheets), of which $10.7 million and $26.8 million was recognized as revenue during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. The deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2023 was $39.9 million.  

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Including Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Impairment Evaluation

 

The Company performs its annual assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment during its fiscal fourth quarter, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change such that it is more likely than not that an impairment  may exist. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decline in the actual and projected revenue for the Company’s PersonalizationMall tradename (indefinite-lived intangible asset), as well as a higher discount rate resulting from the higher interest rate environment, the Company determined that an impairment assessment was required for this tradename. This assessment resulted in the Company recording a non-cash impairment charge of $19.8 million to reduce the recorded carrying value of the PersonalizationMall tradename.

 

The Company concluded that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, excluding its PersonalizationMall tradename, did not require an impairment assessment. See Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net for further information.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, includes enhanced interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contains other disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires the disclosure of additional information with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires greater detail about significant reconciling items in the reconciliation. Additionally, the amendment requires disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
