Note 1 – Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 27, 2010.

The balance sheet information at June 28, 2009 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but doesn’t include all information or notes necessary for a complete presentation.

Accordingly, the information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2009.

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “authoritative guidance” are to the Accounting Standards Codification issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in June 2009.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

For the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010 and March 29, 2009, the Company’s comprehensive  income (losses) were as follows:

   
Three Months Ended

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Codification, which changes the referencing of financial standards, supersedes current authoritative guidance and is effective for the Company’s interim reporting beginning June 29, 2009. The Codification is not intended to change or alter existing GAAP and is not expected to result in a change in accounting practice for the Company.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for business combinations that amends the provisions related to the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance requires such contingencies be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date if fair value can be reasonably estimated during the allocation period. Otherwise, entities would typically account for the acquired contingencies in accordance with authoritative guidance for contingencies. The guidance became effective for the Company’s business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after June 29, 2009. The Company did not complete any business combinations during the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010, and the effect on future periods will depend on the nature and significance of business combinations subject to this guidance.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to increase the frequency of fair value disclosures of financial instruments, thereby enhancing consistency in financial reporting. The guidance relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on a company’s balance sheet at fair value. Prior to the effective date of this guidance, fair values for these assets and liabilities have only been disclosed once a year. The guidance now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements under this guidance with an effective date of June 29, 2009. The implementation did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows as it is disclosure-only in nature.

In April 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for general intangibles other than goodwill, amending factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. This guidance is effective for the Company for intangible assets acquired on or after June 29, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Reclassifications

Certain balances in the prior fiscal years have been reclassified to conform with the presentation in the current fiscal year. As a result of the Company’s decision to dispose of its Home & Children’s Gifts businesses, this segment has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.  During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company launched its 1-800-Baskets brand. Products within this business are now being managed within the Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets segment, resulting in a change to our reportable segment structure. Gift basket products, formerly included in the Consumer Floral reportable segment are now included in the Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets segment. These changes have been reflected in the Company’s segment reporting for all periods presented.

Note 2 – Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share


Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares (consisting of employee stock options and unvested restricted stock awards) outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and excludes the effect of dilutive potential common shares as their inclusion would be antidilutive.
 
 
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share:

Note 3 – Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan, which is more fully described in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K, that provides for the grant to eligible employees, consultants and directors of stock options, share appreciation rights (SARs), restricted shares, restricted share units, performance shares, performance units, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards.

During the nine months ended March 29, 2009, as a result of the Company’s performance due to the weakness in the retail economy, the Company reversed previously accrued long-term incentive equity awards as the goals that were established in order to vest the awards were determined to be no longer achievable.

Note 4 – Acquisitions

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, the aggregate purchase price for the acquired business is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.  Operating results of the acquired entities are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from date of acquisition.

Acquisition of Napco Marketing Corp.

On July 21, 2008, the Company acquired selected assets of Napco Marketing Corp. (“Napco”), a wholesale merchandiser and marketer of products designed primarily for the floral industry. The purchase price of approximately $9.4 million included the acquisition of a fulfillment center located in Jacksonville, FL, inventory, and certain other assets, as well as the assumption of certain related liabilities, including their seasonal line of credit of approximately $4.0 million. The acquisition was financed utilizing a combination of available cash on hand and through borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The purchase price includes an up-front cash payment of $9.3 million, net of cash acquired, and the expected portion of “earn-out” incentives, which amounted to a maximum of $1.6 million through the years ending July 2, 2012, upon achievement of specified performance targets.  As of March 28, 2010, the Company does not expect that any of the specified performance targets will be achieved.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in each business combination. Goodwill and other indefinite lived intangibles are subject to an assessment for impairment, which must be performed annually, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that goodwill or other indefinite lived intangibles might be impaired. Goodwill impairment testing involves a two-step process. Step 1 compares the fair value of the Company’s reporting units to their carrying values. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis is necessary. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, Step 2 must be completed to quantify the amount of impairment. Step 2 calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in Step 1. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss, equal to the difference, is recognized.

As a result of declines in revenue, operating income and cash flows within the Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets segment during fiscal 2009, which the Company believes was attributable to reduced consumer spending due to the overall weakness in the economy, coupled with a reduction in the outlook of the performance of this segment based upon the expectation of a continuation of the current economic downturn, along with a decline of the Company’s market capitalization and an overall contraction of public company multiples, upon completion of the impairment analysis described above, during the three months ended March 29, 2009, the Company recorded a goodwill and intangible impairment charge of $76.5 million related to this business segment, of which $65.6 million was goodwill.

Fair value was determined by using a combination of a market-based and an income-based approach, weighting both approaches equally. Under the market-based approach, the Company utilized information regarding the Company as well as publicly available industry information to determine earnings and revenue multiples that are used to value the Company’s reporting units. Under the income-based approach, the Company determined fair value based upon estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which reflected the overall level of inherent risk of the reporting unit and the rate of return that an outside investor would expect to earn. The Company reconciled the value of its reporting units to its current market capitalization (based upon the Company’s stock price) to determine that its assumptions were consistent with that of an outside investor.

In order to fund the increase in working capital requirements associated with DesignPac which was acquired on April 30, 2008, on August 28, 2008, the Company entered into a $293.0 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and a group of lenders (the “2008 Credit Facility”). The 2008 Credit Facility provided for borrowings of up to $293.0 million, including: (i) a $165.0 million revolving credit commitment, (ii) $60.0 million of new term loan debt, and (iii) $68.0 million of existing term loan debt associated with the Company’s previous credit facility.

On April 14, 2009, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2008 Credit Facility (the “Amended 2008 Credit Facility”). The Amended 2008 Credit Facility included a prepayment of $20.0 million, reducing the Company’s outstanding term loans under the facility to $92.4 million upon closing.  In addition, the amendment reduced the Company’s revolving credit line from $165.0 million to a seasonally adjusted line ranging from $75.0 to $125.0 million. The Amended 2008 Credit Facility, effective March 29, 2009, also revised certain financial and non-financial covenants.

On April 16, 2010, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and a group of lenders (the “2010 Credit Facility”). The 2010 Credit Facility included a prepayment of approximately $12.1 million, reducing the Company’s outstanding term loan under the facility to $60 million upon closing.

Outstanding amounts under the 2010 Credit Facility will bear interest at the Company’s option at either: (i) LIBOR plus a defined margin, or (ii) the agent bank’s prime rate plus a margin. The applicable margins for the Company’s term loans and revolving credit facility will range from 3.00% to 3.75% for LIBOR loans and 2.00% to 2.75% for ABR loans with pricing based upon the Company’s leverage ratio. The term loan, which matures on March 30, 2014, is payable in sixteen quarterly installments of principal and interest beginning in June 2010, amortized at the rate of 20% in year one, 25% in years two and three and 30% in year four.

In addition, the 2010 Credit Facility extended the Company’s revolving credit line through April 16, 2014, and reduced available borrowings from a seasonally adjusted limit which ranged from $75.0 million to $125.0 million to a seasonally adjusted limit ranging from $40.0 to $75.0 million. The 2010 Credit Facility, effective for covenant calculations as of March 28, 2010, also revises certain financial and non-financial covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios. The obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the 2010 Credit Facility are secured by liens on all personal property of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

During March 2009, the Company obtained a $5.0 million equipment lease line of credit with a bank and a $5.0 million equipment lease line of credit with a vendor. Interest under these lines, which both mature in April 2012, range from 2.99% to 7.48%. Borrowings under the bank line are collateralized by the underlying equipment purchased, while the equipment lease line with the vendor is unsecured. The borrowings are payable in 36 monthly installments of principal and interest commencing in April 2009.


The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for trading purposes, but rather to hedge its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company manages its floating rate debt using interest rate swaps in order to reduce its exposure to the impact of changing interest rates on its consolidated results of operations and future cash outflows for interest.

In July 2009, the Company entered into a $45.0 million notional amount swap agreement that exchanges a variable interest rate (LIBOR) for a 1.92% fixed rate of interest over the term of the agreement. This swap matures on July 25, 2012. The Company has designated this swap as a cash flow hedge of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest (LIBOR) payments. The effective portion of the after tax fair value gains or losses on this swap is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.  The ineffective portion, if any, is recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

Note 8-Fair Value Measurements

On June 29, 2009, the Company adopted the newly issued accounting standard for fair value measurements of all non-financial assets and liabilities not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, 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 also tested for impairment annually, as required under the accounting standards.

Cash and cash equivalents, receivables, 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. The Company believes that the carrying amount of its debt approximates fair value as no trading market exists.

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.
 
In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap, which is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The fair value is based on forward looking interest rate curves:

Note 9 – Income Taxes
 
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company estimates its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year. 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 rates from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010 was 36.9% and 54.4%, respectively, compared to 21.5% and 16.6% during the comparative three and nine months ended March 29, 2009 which reflect the impact of the non-deductible portions of the goodwill and other intangible impairment charges of $76.5 million, recorded during the three and nine months ended March 29, 2009. Excluding this charge, the effective rates during the three and nine months ended March 29, 2009 would have been 37.7% and 37.4%, respectively. The effective rates for fiscal 2010 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and other permanent non-deductible items.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for its fiscal 2007 tax year, however fiscal 2007 through fiscal 2009 remain subject to examination, with the exception of certain states where the statute remains open from fiscal 2004. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next twelve months.
 
The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Note 10 – Business Segments

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

·  
1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral;
·  
BloomNet Wire Service; and
·  
Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company made the strategic decision to divest its Home & Children’s Gifts business segment to focus on its core Consumer Floral, BloomNet Wire Service and Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets categories.  On January 25, 2010, the Company completed the sale of these businesses; refer to “Discontinued Operations” below for a further discussion. Consequently, the Company has classified the results of operations of its Home & Children’s Gifts segment, which includes Home Decor and Children’s Gifts from Plow & Hearth®, Wind & Weather®, HearthSong® and Magic Cabin®, as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Category performance is measured based on contribution margin, which includes only the direct controllable revenue and operating expenses of the categories. As such, management’s measure of profitability for these categories does not include the effect of corporate overhead (see (*) below), which are operated under a centralized management platform, providing services throughout the organization, nor does it include depreciation and amortization, goodwill and intangible impairment, other income, and income taxes, or stock-based compensation and severance and restructuring costs, both of which are included within corporate overhead. Assets and liabilities are reviewed at the consolidated level by management and not accounted for by category.

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 category.


Note 11 - Discontinued Operations

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company made the strategic decision to divest its Home & Children’s Gifts business segment to focus on its core Consumer Floral, BloomNet Wire Service and Gourmet Foods & Gift Baskets categories.  On January 25, 2010, the Company completed the sale of the assets and certain related liabilities of its Home & Children’s Gifts business to PH International, LLC. Included in the sale were the Plow & Hearth, Problem Solvers, Wind & Weather, HearthSong and Magic Cabin brands, as well as the administrative and distribution center in Madison, VA, and a distribution center in Vandalia, OH. The sales price of the assets was $17.0 million, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital. During the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010, the Company recorded a loss of $0.7 million and $4.0 million, including transaction, severance and transition obligations, which is in addition to the $14.7 million write-down that the Company recorded during the three months ended June 28, 2009. (Included within transaction costs was the issuance of 350,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s transaction advisor, valued at $2.17 per share, which was the value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date of closing.) The Company has classified the results of operations of its Home & Children’s Gifts segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.

On December 21, 2007, Plaintiff, Thomas Molnar, on behalf of himself and a putative class, filed suit against the Company claiming false advertising, unfair business practices, and unjust enrichment seeking unspecified monetary damages.  The Company has admitted no wrongdoing with respect to this matter, but has chosen to enter into a settlement agreement with the parties to this matter in order to avoid protracted litigation. The presiding trial Judge has given preliminary approval to the settlement, and the Company has sent out the applicable notices to the class members. As a result, the Company accrued for the estimated cost of the settlement of approximately $0.9 million within its general and administrative expenses during the three months ended  December 27, 2009.
