Insights

Financial Analyst

The Q1 FY2025 results reveal concerning trends for 1-800-FLOWERS.COM. Total revenue declined 10.0% to $242.1 million, with e-commerce orders dropping 6.5% and average order value falling 1.5%. The net loss widened to $34.2 million ($0.53 per share) from $31.2 million in the prior year.

While gross margin improved slightly by 20 basis points to 38.1%, all three business segments showed revenue declines: Gourmet Foods (-14.4%), Consumer Floral (-4.9%) and BloomNet (-20.1%). The company's outlook for flat to low-single-digit revenue decline and projected Adjusted EBITDA of $85-95 million suggests continued challenges ahead.

The cost reduction initiatives and inventory optimization efforts are positive steps, but they haven't fully offset the revenue decline impact. The shifting consumer spending patterns and uncertain economic environment pose significant headwinds for discretionary gift purchases.

Market Research Analyst

The company's strategic positioning shows both opportunities and challenges. The expansion of price points from budget-friendly to premium options demonstrates adaptation to diverse consumer segments, but the declining average order value suggests price sensitivity remains a key factor.

The $3.0 million shift in wholesale orders from Q1 to Q2 indicates potential timing benefits for the upcoming quarter. However, the 8.0% decline in e-commerce revenue is particularly concerning given the digital-first nature of the business and increasing competition in the online gifting space.

The projected free cash flow of $45-55 million for FY2025 provides some financial flexibility for operational improvements, but the company needs to demonstrate stronger execution during the important holiday season to rebuild investor confidence.

JERICHO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLWS), a leading provider of gifts designed to help inspire customers to give more, connect more, and build more and better relationships, today reported results for its Fiscal 2025 first quarter ended September 29, 2024.

“Our first quarter performance generally came in-line with our expectations, as we began to see a slight improvement in our e-commerce revenue trends during the quarter, our gross profit margin continued to grow, and we reduced expenses as a result of our Work Smarter initiatives to operate more efficiently,” said Jim McCann, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. “We expect the improvement in our e-commerce revenue trends to accelerate as we move closer to the holiday selling season, and our revenues will further benefit from the growth of wholesale orders this year. Through the Relationship Innovation initiatives that we implemented over the last two years, we have expanded our offerings and broadened our price points, providing gift givers with more choices at prices that span from budget-friendly to premium. We look forward to helping our customers connect and express their sentiments with the important people in their lives.”

Segment Results

The Company provides Fiscal 2025 first quarter financial results for its Gourmet Foods and Gift Baskets, Consumer Floral and Gifts, and BloomNet^® segments in the tables attached to this release and as follows:

• Gourmet Foods and Gift Baskets: Revenues for the quarter declined 14.4% to $84.0 million as compared with the prior year period. This decline reflects the timing of approximately $3.0 million of wholesale orders that shifted from the first quarter into the second quarter. Gross profit margin increased 50 basis points to 32.0%, benefiting from the Company’s inventory optimization efforts and a decline in certain commodity costs. Excluding the impact of the systems implementation costs, adjusted segment contribution margin¹ loss was $11.3 million, compared with a loss of $11.0 million in the prior year period.

• Consumer Floral & Gifts: Revenues for the quarter declined 4.9% to $135.2 million as compared with the prior year period. Gross profit margin increased 30 basis points to 39.9%. Segment contribution margin¹ was $4.9 million, compared with $8.8 million in the prior year period.

• BloomNet: Revenues for the quarter declined 20.1% to $23.1 million as compared with the prior year period. Revenue and gross margin were impacted by the lower volume of lower margin orders processed by BloomNet. Gross profit margin decreased 20 basis points to 50.0% due to deleveraging on the lower sales volume. Segment contribution margin¹ was $6.8 million, compared with $9.4 million in the prior year period.

Company Guidance

For Fiscal 2025, the Company continues to expect its revenue trend to improve as the fiscal year progresses benefiting from the Company’s Relationship Innovation initiatives that have expanded the Company’s product offerings, broadened price points, and enhanced the user experience, combined with increased marketing spend. The Adjusted EBITDA range reflects the acknowledgement that the consumer environment remains uncertain.

As a result, for Fiscal 2025 the Company continues to expect:

• total revenues on a percentage basis to be in a range of flat to a decrease in the low-single digits, as compared with the prior year;
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ to be in a range of $85 million to $95 million; and
• Free Cash Flow¹ to be in a range of $45 million to $55 million.

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. Non-GAAP financial measures referred to in this document are either labeled as “non-GAAP” or designated as such with a “1”. See below for definitions and the reasons why we use these non-GAAP financial measures. Where applicable, see the Selected Financial Information below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. 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 imply a degree of precision that 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 Plan Investment appreciation/depreciation, and for certain items affecting period-to-period comparability. See Selected Financial 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 and Adjusted 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 Segment Contribution Margin adjusted for certain items affecting period-to-period comparability. See Selected Financial Information for details on how Segment Contribution Margin and Adjusted Segment Contribution Margin were 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 these measures 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 Selected Financial Information below for details on how Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share 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, Stock-Based Compensation, as well as changes in the fair value of the Company's NQDC plan. 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.
