CARLE PLACE, N.Y., Aug 07, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLWS), the world's leading florist and gift shop, today reported net income growth of 23 percent to $21.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for its fiscal year ended June 29, 2008, compared with $17.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The Company said EBITDA grew 9.3 percent to $57.7 million for fiscal 2008, compared with $52.8 million in the prior year period, reflecting reduced operating expenses.
The Company continued to improve its operating expense ratio (excluding depreciation and amortization) by 70 basis points to 36.5 percent for fiscal 2008 by leveraging its business platform. Gross Profit Margin for fiscal 2008 declined 20 basis points to 42.8 percent compared with the prior year, primarily reflecting increased promotional activity and higher fuel surcharges from third party shippers. Total revenues for the fiscal year increased 0.7 percent, or $6.8 million, to $919.4 compared with $912.6 million in the prior year.
Jim McCann, CEO of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, said, "We are pleased with our strong EPS and EBITDA growth in fiscal 2008, which was achieved despite a challenging economic environment that impacted consumer spending throughout the year. Despite slower sales growth, we continued to drive double-digit bottom-line growth and generated free cash flow of $38 million for the year. These results were achieved by leveraging our business platform to reduce costs while targeting our marketing and merchandising initiatives to achieve profitable growth. This strategy has enabled us to offset lower consumer spending and rising fuel surcharges from our third-party shipping providers. Most important, this focus positions us well for continued strong bottom-line growth in our current fiscal year. During fiscal 2009, we anticipate further improvements in our operating expense ratio as well as enhanced revenue growth from our acquisitions and organic business initiatives."
McCann said the Company's BloomNet Wire Service continued to grow its top and bottom line metrics at a double digit pace during fiscal 2008, with revenue increasing approximately 21 percent to $53.5 million and category contribution margin increasing 30.7 percent to $18.5 million. "BloomNet continues to gain market share by leveraging its position as the wire service industry's leading innovator, offering florists both a superior value proposition and a growing suite of products and services - such as our unique digital directory - that help our florists in the current challenging economy," he said. In terms of product sales, McCann noted that the Company recently enhanced BloomNet's growth outlook through a small asset acquisition in July. These assets will expand BloomNet's existing product offering and enable the company to deepen its relationships with professional florists as their preferred wire service.
For the Company's fiscal 2008 fourth quarter, net income was $4.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with $6.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the prior year period. EBITDA was $12.2 million compared with $17.1 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin was 41.5 percent, down 120 basis points compared with 42.7 percent in the prior year period while operating expense ratio increased 70 basis points to 36 percent compared with 35.3 percent in the prior year period.
Total revenues for the fiscal fourth quarter were $219.8 million, compared with $231.8 million in the prior year period. It is important to note that the Company's fiscal 2008 fourth quarter results reflect the impact of several factors that the Company considers non-comparable, including among others, the shift of the Easter Holiday into the Company's fiscal third quarter, the operating costs associated with its acquisition of DesignPac Gifts LLC (with minimal offsetting seasonal revenues) and the inclusion in the prior year period of revenues and profits associated with BloomNet's Floral Design Guide, which is sold once every three years. Adjusting for these factors, the Company believes its results for the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter would have been essentially unchanged compared with the prior year period.
Category Results:
The Company provides selected financial results for its Floral and Gifts business categories in the tables attached to this release and as follows:
-- Consumer Floral: For fiscal 2008, revenues in this category increased slightly to $491.7 million compared with $491.4 million in the prior year. Revenues for the fiscal fourth quarter were $149 million, down 3.2 percent compared with $154 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the shift of the Easter holiday into the Company's third quarter. Gross profit margin for both fiscal 2008 and the fiscal fourth quarter was 38.7 percent, compared with 39.3 percent and 40.2 percent, respectively, in the corresponding prior year periods. Category contribution margin for the fiscal year was $63 million compared with $65.2 million in the prior year. For the fiscal fourth quarter, category contribution margin was $20.2 million compared with $24.7 million in the prior year period. The Company defines category contribution margin as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and before allocation of corporate overhead expenses.
-- BloomNet Wire Service: For fiscal 2008, revenues increased 20.5 percent to $53.5 million compared with $44.4 million in the prior year. Revenues for the fiscal fourth quarter increased 4.2 percent to $15.5 million compared with $14.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted for the prior year period's inclusion of approximately $2 million related to BloomNet's Floral Selection Guide, sales of which occur only every third year, revenue growth would have been comparable to the fiscal 2008 full year growth rate. Gross profit margin for fiscal 2008 was 56.2 percent compared with 56 percent in the prior year. For the fiscal fourth quarter, gross profit margin was 56.8 percent compared with 56.3 percent in the prior year period. Category contribution margin for fiscal 2008 increased 30.7 percent to $18.5 million compared with $14.2 million in the prior year period. For the fiscal fourth quarter, category contribution margin increased 10.4 percent to $5.9 million compared with $5.4 million in the prior year period.
-- Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets: For fiscal 2008, revenues increased 1.9 percent to $196.3 million compared with $192.7 million in the prior year. Revenues for the fiscal fourth quarter declined 11.9 percent to $22.9 million compared with $25.9 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the shift of the Easter holiday into the Company's third quarter during the fiscal year. Gross profit margin for fiscal 2008 was 46.7 percent compared with 45.8 percent in the prior year period. For the fiscal fourth quarter, gross profit margin was 42.5 percent compared with 44.7 percent in the prior year period. Category contribution margin for fiscal 2008 was $24.6 million, down 6.8 percent compared with $26.4 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the operating costs associated with the Company's acquisition of DesignPac Gifts, (with minimal offsetting seasonal revenues) in April 2008. For the fiscal fourth quarter, category contribution margin was a loss of $1.7 million, compared with a profit of $793,000 in the prior year period, reflecting both the operating losses associated with the DesignPac Gifts acquisition and the shift of the Easter holiday into the Company's fiscal third quarter.
-- Home and Children's Gifts: Revenues for fiscal 2008 were $180.2 million, down 3.6 percent compared with $186.9 million in the prior year, primarily reflecting the elimination of the Madison Place and Problem Solvers titles that had launched in fiscal 2007. Revenues during fiscal 2008 for the category's core business brands, including Plow&Hearth, Wind and Weather, HearthSong and Magic Cabin, were comparable with the prior year period. For the fiscal fourth quarter, revenues were $32.9 million, down 12.2 percent compared with $37.4 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for fiscal 2008 was 45.2 percent compared with 45.9 percent in the prior year period. For the fiscal fourth quarter, gross profit margin was 46 percent compared with 45.5 percent in the prior year period. Category contribution margin for fiscal 2008 was $3.4 million, representing an improvement of $4.7 million compared with a loss of $1.2 million in the prior year period. This reflects significant improvements achieved in the category's operating expenses including reduced marketing expenses related to the discontinued titles. For the fiscal fourth quarter, category contribution margin was a profit of $226,000 compared with a loss of $111,000 in the prior year period.
In terms of its key customer metrics, the Company said 6.8 million e-commerce customers placed orders during fiscal 2008, of which approximately 50 percent were repeat customers. During fiscal 2008, the Company attracted more than 3.4 million new customers. For the fiscal fourth quarter, more than two million e-commerce customers placed orders with repeat customers representing 61 percent of the total. During the quarter, the Company attracted approximately 800,000 new e-commerce customers. "We believe these customer metrics illustrate our ability to leverage the strength of our brand to attract millions of new customers while deepening our relationships with our existing customers by helping them to connect and express themselves to the important people in their lives," noted McCann.
COMPANY GUIDANCE:
For fiscal 2009, while the Company does not anticipate any significant improvement in the current economic environment, it expects to achieve revenue growth in excess of 10 percent compared with the prior year period. Revenue growth is expected to come from a combination of organic initiatives and contributions from its recent acquisitions. Among the organic initiatives that the Company believes will help drive profitable growth are:
-- The first year benefit from the exclusive relationship with
Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia for both 1-800-FLOWERS.COM
and BloomNet;
-- BloomNet's expanded products and service offerings, designed
to deepen its relationship with florists and increase
market share gains;
-- Fannie May's continued strong ecommerce channel growth;
-- Cheryl&Co. and The Popcorn Factory's new product
introductions, increased customization capabilities and new
website launches; and
-- Increased focus on cross-marketing and merchandising across
all enterprise brands.
-- Combined with its anticipated revenue growth, the Company expects fiscal 2009 EBITDA growth of approximately 15 percent and EPS growth of approximately 20 percent. Despite the macro economy, the Company anticipates improving gross profit margins in most of its businesses through a combination of sourcing, product mix and pricing initiatives. However, reflecting the lower wholesale gross margin associated with its recently acquired DesignPac Gifts business, the Company expects consolidated gross profit margin will decline slightly in fiscal 2009. The Company expects to further enhance its operating expense ratio by approximately 50-to-100 basis points in fiscal 2009 through the ongoing leveraging of its business platform.
-- In terms of seasonality for fiscal 2009, the Company anticipates that its quarterly revenues will be in the following ranges:
-- Q1 = 14-to-16 percent of total revenues
-- Q2 = 38-to-40 percent of total revenues
-- Q3 = 21-to-23 percent of total revenues
-- Q4 = 23-to-25 percent of total revenues
McCann said, "It is important to note that we were able to drive strong results in EPS, EBITDA and free cash flow, despite the macro economy, by continuing to focus on the key strategic priorities that we have told you about in the past, including:
-- Leverage the strength of our brand to deepen our
relationship with our millions of customers as their
preferred florist and gift shop;
-- Seek profitable growth by focusing on our key business
categories and targeting our marketing and merchandising
programs;
-- Improve our operating expense ratio by leveraging our
platform to take costs out of our business.
"Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on these strategic priorities and we anticipate achieving improved, profitable revenue growth and continued double digit bottom-line growth for fiscal 2009 and beyond," said McCann.
Definitions:
EBITDA: Net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents EBITDA because it considers such information a meaningful supplemental measure of its performance and believes it is frequently used by the investment community in the evaluation of similarly situated companies. The Company also uses EBITDA as one of the factors used to determine the total amount of bonuses available to be awarded to executive officers and other employees. The Company's credit agreement uses EBITDA (with additional adjustments) to measure compliance with covenants such as interest coverage and debt incurrence. EBITDA is also used by the Company to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (a) EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs; (b) EBITDA does 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. Because of these limitations, EBITDA should only be used on a supplemental basis combined with GAAP results when evaluating the Company's performance.
