Positive
  • Gross profit margin improved by 300 basis points to 36.6%, benefiting from lower freight costs, improved commodity costs, and logistics optimization efforts.

  • Recognition as one of America's Most Trustworthy Companies enhances the company's reputation and trustworthiness among consumers and investors.

  • Acquisition of Card Isle expands the company's presence in the greeting card category, enhancing the gifting experience across its brands, potentially leading to increased revenue streams.

Negative
  • Total consolidated revenues decreased by 9.1% to $379.4 million compared to the prior year period, indicating a decrease in overall sales performance.

  • Net loss for the quarter was $16.9 million, or $0.26 per share, reflecting a loss for investors, although adjusted net loss was $18.0 million.

  • Adjusted EBITDA loss was $5.7 million, showing a negative impact on the company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

Insights

The reported net loss of $16.9 million, or $0.26 per share, is a significant number and could indicate underlying challenges in the company's operations. The slight improvement in adjusted net loss from the prior year suggests that management's efforts to optimize logistics and reduce costs, such as the mentioned workforce reductions expected to save $10 million annually, are having some effect. However, investors should be aware that the cost savings from these reductions may take time to fully manifest in the company's financials. The indicated gross profit margin improvement of 300 basis points to 36.6% is a positive sign of cost management efficiency but must be weighed against the overall revenue decline of 9.1%. This dichotomy reflects a changing operating environment and the need for the company to navigate a complex consumer landscape. The acquisition of Card Isle shows strategic moves to diversify and enhance the company's offering, though it's after the reported period, the financial impact of this acquisition will be an area to watch in future reporting periods.

The decrease in total consolidated revenues by 9.1% is indicative of the current consumer environment and competitive pressures. The improvement in e-commerce revenue trends, declining at a reduced pace (4.9% compared to 6.6% the previous quarter), could reveal a gradually stabilizing online segment which is critical considering the digital shift in consumer shopping behaviors. Segment performance, particularly the Gourmet Foods and Gift Baskets segment with a revenue decline of 11.4% and the BloomNet segment's revenue decline of 26.1%, are areas of concern, signaling potential market saturation or loss of market share. While the improvement in gross profit margins across segments due to cost optimizations is commendable, the revenue declines could potentially overshadow these gains, making it essential to monitor consumer trends and competitive dynamics closely in the coming quarters.

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 2024 third quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Fiscal 2024 Third Quarter Highlights

  • Total consolidated revenues decreased 9.1% to $379.4 million, compared with total consolidated revenues of $417.6 million in the prior year period. Quarter-over-quarter e-commerce revenue trends continued to improve, declining 4.9% as compared with a 6.6% decline in the prior quarter.
  • Gross profit margin increased 300 basis points to 36.6%, compared with 33.6% in the prior year period. The gross profit margin benefited from lower freight costs, improved commodity costs, and the Company’s logistics optimization efforts.
  • As part of the Company’s Work Smarter initiative to operate more efficiently and in response to the current business environment, the Company initiated a reduction of its full-time workforce. This is expected to yield cost savings of more than $10.0 million on an annualized basis. In conjunction with this action, the Company incurred $2.4 million of severance and related charges during the third quarter.
  • Operating expenses were 43.9% of sales, which includes the severance and related charges, as compared with 53.9% in the prior year period, which included a goodwill and intangible assets impairment charge. Operating expenses, excluding the impact of the severance and related charges, the appreciation or depreciation of investments in the Company’s non-qualified compensation plan, and the impairment charge recorded in the prior year period, were 42.4% of sales, as compared with 38.8% in the prior year period, declining $1.2 million as compared with the prior year period to $160.7 million.
  • Net loss for the quarter was $16.9 million, or $0.26 per share, which includes severance and related charges of $2.4 million or $0.02 per share, as well as a tax benefit of $0.04 per share related to the fiscal second quarter trademark impairment charge. In the prior year period, Net Loss was $71.0 million, or $1.10 per share, which included an after-tax, non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $53.1 million.
  • Adjusted Net Loss1 was $18.0 million, or $0.28 per share, compared with an Adjusted Net Loss of $17.8 million, or $0.27 per share, in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 loss for the quarter was $5.7 million, as compared with an Adjusted EBITDA1 loss of $5.5 million in the prior year period.
  • 1-800-Flowers.com, Inc. was recognized amongst America's Most Trustworthy Companies by Newsweek for the year 2024.
  • Acquired Card Isle, an e-commerce greeting card company, expanding the Company’s presence in the greeting card category, and enhancing the gifting experience across its family of brands. The acquisition occurred after the third quarter ended.

“As we continue on our reversion to the mean path, our gross margin continued its significant recovery, improving 300 basis points during the third quarter,” said Jim McCann, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. “However, our topline results remain pressured by a complex consumer environment. In response, we amplified our Work Smarter efforts and reduced our workforce during the fiscal third quarter. While these decisions are always difficult, these changes were made with a focus on appropriately allocating resources to the growth opportunities within our business.”

Mr. McCann added, “We believe it’s important to put our current results in their proper context. We are a bigger, better, stronger company today than we were just a few short years ago. Reversions to the mean rarely occur in a linear fashion and this does not change our long-term view in which we expect our revenue to return to its historical growth rate over time. Most importantly, we continue to execute on our strategic initiatives to enhance and expand the offerings on our platform to be the gifting destination of choice for thoughtful and expressive gift-giving occasions.”

Segment Results

The Company provides Fiscal 2024 third quarter selected 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 were $131.0 million, declining 11.4% compared with $147.9 million in the prior year period, with e-commerce revenue declining 4.5% in the current year period. Gross profit margin expanded 530 basis points to 29.9%, compared with 24.6% percent in the prior year period, benefiting from lower freight costs, the Company’s inventory and labor optimization efforts, as well as a decline in certain commodity costs. Excluding the impact of the severance charge in the current period and the impairment charge in the year ago period, the segment contribution margin1 loss improved by $6.3 million to $7.6 million, compared with a segment contribution margin1 loss of $13.9 million in the prior year period.
  • Consumer Floral & Gifts: Revenues for the quarter were $221.2 million, declining 5.1% compared with $233.0 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin expanded 140 basis points to 39.3%, compared with 37.9% percent in the prior year period, improving on lower fulfillment costs and the Company’s logistics optimization efforts. Excluding the impact of the severance charge in the current period, segment contribution margin1 was $22.8 million, compared with segment contribution margin1 of $26.1 million in the prior year period.
  • BloomNet: Revenues for the quarter were $27.3 million, declining 26.1% compared with $37.0 million in the prior year period. Revenue was impacted by the lower volume of lower margin orders processed by BloomNet. Gross profit margin was 45.4%, compared with 42.5% in the prior year period, primarily reflecting higher margin product mix and lower freight costs. As a result, excluding the impact of the severance charge in the current period, segment contribution margin1 was $7.6 million, compared with $11.0 million in the prior year period.

The Company is reiterating its Fiscal 2024 guidance, including:

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, 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.
