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 27, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending July 3, 2011.

The balance sheet information at June 27, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not 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 27, 2010.

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 27, 2011 and March 28, 2010, the Company’s comprehensive income was as follows:

	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended
	March 27, 2011			March 28, 2010		March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010

			(in thousands)

Comprehensive income (loss)	$	(2,632)		$	(7,337)	$	5,858	$	413

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

No new accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the fiscal year have had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassifications

Certain balances in the prior fiscal year have been reclassified to conform with the presentation in the current fiscal year. 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. 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

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

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

Basic and diluted net income (loss) from
continuing operations per common share	$	(0.04)	$	(0.09)	$	0.09	$	0.02

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 excludes the effect of potential common shares (consisting primarily of employee stock options and unvested restricted stock awards) as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

(1)

The effect of options to purchase 6.8 million and 7.1 million shares during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 and 8.2 million and 8.4 million shares during the three and nine months ended March 28, 2010, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net income per share on a diluted basis as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Note 3 – Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan, which is more fully described in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2010 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.

As of March 27, 2011, the total future compensation cost related to nonvested options, not yet recognized in the statement of income, was $2.0 million and the weighted average period over which these awards are expected to be recognized was 4.4 years.

The Company grants shares of common stock to its employees that are subject to restrictions on transfer and risk of forfeiture until fulfillment of applicable service conditions (Restricted Stock Awards). The following table summarizes the activity of non-vested restricted stock awards during the nine months ended March 27, 2011:

	Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Non-vested at June 27, 2010		1,661,811		$	4.35

Forfeited		(252,408	)	$	3.69
Non-vested at March 27, 2011		3,854,335		$	2.51

The fair value of nonvested shares is determined based on the closing stock price on the grant date. As of March 27, 2011, there was $5.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock-based compensation to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining period of 2.1 years.

Note 4 – Acquisition of Selected Assets of Mrs. Beasley’s

The Company accounts for business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, the 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 entity is reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from date of acquisition.

On March 9, 2011, the Company acquired selected assets of Mrs. Beasley’s Bakery, LLC (Mrs. Beasley’s), a baker and marketer of cakes, muffins and gourmet gift baskets for cash consideration of approximately $1.4 million. The acquisition included inventory and certain manufacturing equipment, which was consolidated within the Company’s baked goods manufacturing facilities. This acquisition expands the breadth of the Company's baked goods and gourmet gift baskets product line. Revenue and operating results of the acquired business were insignificant to the Company’s consolidated operating results during the three and nine month periods ended March 27, 2011. Revenues associated with the acquired business is expected to approximate $4.0 million annually.

The Company is in the process of finalizing its allocation of the purchase price to individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed as a result of the acquisition of Mrs. Beasley’s. This will result in potential adjustments to the carrying value of Mrs. Beasley’s recorded assets and liabilities, the establishment of certain additional intangible assets, revisions of useful lives of intangible assets, some of which will have indefinite lives not subject to amortization, and the determination of any residual amount that will be allocated to goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price included in the current period balance sheet is based on the best estimates of management and is subject to revision based on final determination of asset fair values and useful lives. The following table summarizes the allocation of purchase price to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition of Mrs. Beasley’s:

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, if any. 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.

The Company’s other intangible assets consist of the following:

On April 14, 2009, the Company amended its 2008 Credit Facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and a group of lenders (the “Amended 2008 Credit Facility”). The Amended 2008 Credit Facility provided for term loan debt of $92.4 million and a seasonally adjusted revolving credit line ranging from $75.0 to $125.0 million. The Amended 2008 Credit Facility, effective March 28, 2009, also revised certain financial and non-financial covenants.

On April 16, 2010, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2010 Credit Facility”). The 2010 Credit Facility included a prepayment of approximately $12.1 million, comprised primarily of the proceeds from the sale of the Home & Children’s Gifts segment in January 2010, and thereby reducing the Company’s outstanding term loan under the facility to $60 million upon closing. The term loan, which matures on March 30, 2014, is payable in sixteen quarterly installments of principal and interest beginning in June 2010, with escalating principal payments 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 revised 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.

Outstanding amounts under the 2010 Credit Facility will bear interest at the Company’s option of 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 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.

(2)

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.

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements

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 impairment indicators are present. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present, 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. Although no trading market exists the Company believes that the carrying amount of its debt approximates fair value.

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:

		Fair Value Measurements Assets (Liabilities)
	Total as of March 27, 2011	Level 1			Level 2	Level 3

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 27, 2011 was 44.3% and 40.2%, respectively, compared to 36.9% and 54.4% in the prior year periods. The effective rates for fiscal 2011 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and other permanent non-deductible items, offset by various tax credits.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service has completed its examination of the Company’s federal income tax returns through fiscal 2009. Certain state returns remain subject to examination 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. The Company does not have any material accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any material interest expense recognized during the year.

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 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 footnote (**) below), which are operated under a centralized management platform, providing services throughout the organization, nor does it include depreciation and amortization, other income, income taxes, stock-based compensation and litigation costs, all of which are included within corporate overhead. Assets and liabilities are reviewed at the consolidated level by management and not accounted for by category.

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.

Legal Proceedings

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

On November 10, 2010, a purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming the Company (along with Trilegiant Corporation, Inc., Affinion, Inc. and Chase Bank USA, N.A.) as defendants in an action purporting to assert claims against the Company alleging violations arising under the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act among other statutes, and for breach of contract and unjust enrichment in connection with certain post-transaction marketing practices in which certain of the Company’s subsidiaries previously engaged in with certain third-party vendors. Plaintiffs seek to have this case certified as a class action and seek restitution and other damages, all in an amount in excess of $5 million. The Company intends to defend this action vigorously.

In 2009, the United States Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation commenced an investigation of post-transaction marketing practices and the Company was one of many involved in that investigation. The Company fully complied with all requests from the committee. In addition, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the Attorney General of the State of New York regarding the same activities. The Company fully complied with that investigation, supplied the information sought and voluntarily entered into an Assurance of Discontinuance with the Attorney General’s Office in December 2010. As part of the resolution of that matter, the Company paid the sum of $325,000 to a fund to be used for consumer education, consumer redress and costs and fees of the investigation.

There are no assurances that additional legal actions will not be instituted in connection with the Company’s former post-transaction marketing practices involving third party vendors nor can we predict the outcome of any such legal action.

(*) During the second quarter of fiscal 2010 the Company launched the 1-800-Baskets.com brand which is included within the results of the Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets category.

(**) 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 Share-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 category.

(***) Performance is measured based on category contribution margin or category EBITDA, reflecting 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, described above, depreciation and amortization, other income (net), income taxes nor does it include litigation settlements. Management utilizes EBITDA, and adjusted financial information, as a performance measurement tool 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 companies with comparable market capitalization. The Company also uses EBITDA and adjusted financial information 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 and adjusted financial information to measure compliance with covenants such as interest coverage and debt incurrence. EBITDA and adjusted financial information is also used by the Company to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates. EBITDA and adjusted financial information have 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.

Net revenues:
E-Commerce	$	117,506	$	113,030		4.0%	$	343,318	$	339,530		1.1%
Other		45,273		42,483		6.6%		159,384		162,753		(2.1%)
Total net revenues	$	162,779	$	155,513		4.7%	$	502,702	$	502,283		0.1%

During the three months ended March 27, 2011, revenues increased by 4.7% in comparison to the prior year period primarily as a result of growth within the 1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral category, driven by strong Valentine’s Day holiday demand, as well as growth within the BloomNet Wire Service businesses, offset by lower revenue within the Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets business as a result of this year’s shift of the Easter holiday to later into the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter. During the nine months ended March 27, 2011, revenues were consistent with the prior year period as higher revenues within the BloomNet Wire Service and Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets categories offset lower revenue within the Consumer Floral category.

The Company fulfilled approximately 1,853,000 and 5,879,000 orders through its E-commerce sales channels (online and telephonic sales) during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, a decrease of 7.5% and 4.6% from the same periods of the prior year, as a result of the aforementioned shift in the timing of the Easter holiday, as well as a shift in the Company’s marketing and merchandising strategy which focused on the Company’s “better and best” differentiated products, rather than on commoditized bouquets. The Company's E-commerce average order value of $63.40 and $58.40 during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, respectively, increased by 12.4% and 5.9% over the respective prior year periods, reflecting improved merchandising programs geared towards innovative and original products designed to “wow” our customers’ gift recipients, as well as through reductions in promotional activities.

Other revenues increased 6.6% during the three months ended March 27, 2011, in comparison to the prior year period, primarily as a result of the aforementioned sales growth in the BloomNet Wire Service business, whereas, other revenues declined 2.1% during the nine months ended March 27, 2011, compared to the prior year period, as a result of reduced wholesale orders within the Company’s Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets business, as well as the shift in the timing of the Easter holiday.

The 1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral category includes the operations of the 1-800-Flowers brand which derives revenue from the sale of consumer floral products through its E-Commerce sales channels (telephonic and online sales) and two company-owned and operated retail floral stores, as well as royalties from its franchise operations. Net revenues during the three months ended March 27, 2011 increased by 5.2% over the prior year period, reflecting the strong growth during the Valentine’s Day holiday, in spite of the Monday placement of the holiday, as a result of the Company’s continued focus on: (i) upgrading its merchandising programs, (ii) re-focusing its marketing message, and (iii) enhancing the efficiency of its advertising efforts, resulting in improvements in revenues, gross margin and operating expenses. During the nine months ended March 27, 2011, net revenue declined by 1.5% compared to the prior year period, as a result of lower order volume primarily in the first six months of the year, and the loss of high-margin revenues associated with a third-party marketing program, which the Company ended in December 2009.

The BloomNet Wire Service category includes revenues from membership fees as well as other product and service offerings to florists. Net revenues during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 increased by 17.3% and 12.3% over the respective prior year periods, primarily as a result of growing revenues associated with increased shop-to-shop order volume. While this order volume positively impacts revenues, at the present time, the impact on gross margin and contribution margin is significantly less than BloomNet’s normal margin. However, BloomNet expects to monetize this increased order volume through increasing membership, technology, services and product fees.

The Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets category includes the operations of 1-800-Baskets.com, Cheryl’s, Fannie May, The Popcorn Factory, Winetasting.com and DesignPac businesses. Revenue is derived from the sale of cookies, baked gifts, premium chocolates and confections, gourmet popcorn, wine gifts and gift baskets through its E-commerce sales channels (telephonic and online sales) and company-owned and operated retail stores under the Cheryl’s and Fannie May brand names, as well as wholesale operations. Net revenue during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 decreased 1.7% and 1.0%, compared to the respective prior year periods, primarily as a result of the shift in the Easter holiday to later in the fiscal fourth quarter this year, as well as reduced wholesale volume from DesignPac, partially offset by e-commerce sales growth from 1-800-Baskets.com and Cheryl’s brands.

Gross Profit

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change		March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change
					(in thousands)
Gross profit	$	63,205	$	59,413		6.4%	$	205,618	$	202,830		1.4%
Gross margin %		38.8%		38.2%				40.9%		40.4%

Gross profit consists of net revenues less cost of revenues, which is comprised primarily of florist fulfillment costs (primarily fees paid directly to florists), the cost of floral and non-floral merchandise sold from inventory or through third parties, and associated costs including inbound and outbound shipping charges. Additionally, cost of revenues include labor and facility costs related to direct-to-consumer and wholesale production operations.

Gross profit increased during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, compared to the prior year period, due to the combination of increased revenues as described above, and improvements in gross margin percentages of 60 and 50 basis points, respectively, as a result of improved merchandising programs and reduced promotional activities within the Company’s 1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral category, which more than offset fuel and commodity cost increases and the margin impact of the third-party marketing program which was discontinued in December 2009.

The 1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral category gross profit increased by 17.5% and 3.6% during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, respectively, compared to the prior year period, due to the higher revenue as described above, and gross margin percentage improvements, which increased 380 basis points and 190 basis points, respectively, due to the aforementioned improved merchandising programs and decreases in promotional activity, which the Company expects to continue to see benefits from, throughout the remainder of fiscal 2011.

The BloomNet Wire Service category gross profit increased by 4.5% and 5.3% during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, respectively, compared to the prior year period, as a result of the above mentioned increase in shop-to-shop order volume, which also caused the reduced gross margin percentage. However, BloomNet expects to monetize this increased order volume and thereby improve gross margin over time.

The Gourmet Food & Gift Baskets category gross profit decreased by 11.4% and 2.1% during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 respectively, compared to the prior year period, as a result of the aforementioned lower net revenues due to the shift in the Easter holiday. Gross margin percentage decreased by 420 and 40 basis points, for the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, respectively, reflecting the change in sales mix from the shift in the Easter holiday, which includes higher margin products, as well as increased fuel and commodity prices.

During the remainder of fiscal 2011, the Company expects its gross margin percentage will improve in comparison to fiscal 2010 as a result of a reduction in promotional activity, as well as improvements in product sourcing, supply chain and manufacturing efficiencies.

Percentage of net revenues		26.9%		30.0%				24.8%		25.5%

Marketing and sales expense consists primarily of advertising and promotional expenditures, catalog costs, online portal and search costs, retail store and fulfillment operations (other than costs included in cost of revenues) and customer service center expenses, as well as the operating expenses of the Company’s departments engaged in marketing, selling and merchandising activities.

Marketing and sales expense decreased by 6.2% and 2.8% during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, respectively, compared to the prior year period, as a result of Company’s continued focus on improving its merchandising programs, re-focusing the marketing messages, and enhancing the efficiency of the advertising efforts, which allowed for reductions in spending, primarily within the Company’s 1-800-Flowers.com Consumer Floral category.

During the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 the Company added approximately 629,000 and 1,715,000 new E-commerce customers, respectively. Of the 1,491,000 and 3,572,000 total customers who placed E-commerce orders during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, approximately 57.8% and 52.0%, respectively, represented repeat customers, compared to 59.5% and 54.5% during the respective prior year periods.

Technology and Development Expense

Percentage of net revenues		3.2%		2.7%				3.0%		2.6%

Technology and development expense consists primarily of payroll and operating expenses of the Company’s information technology group, costs associated with its web sites, including hosting, design, content development and maintenance and support costs related to the Company’s order entry, customer service, fulfillment and database systems.

During the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, technology and development expense increased by 23.8% and 11.9% over the respective prior year period, as a result of increased labor costs required to support and implement recent website improvements, as well as from higher incentive compensation expense in comparison to the prior year, partially offset by reductions in the cost of hosting the Company’s technology platforms, as a result of footprint reductions and sourcing savings.

During the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011, the Company expended $7.9 million and $22.2 million, respectively, on technology and development, of which $2.7 million and $7.4 million, respectively, has been capitalized.

General and Administrative Expense

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change		March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change

General and administrative expense increased by 14.5% during the three months ended March 27, 2011, compared to the prior year, as a result of higher incentive compensation expense, reflecting the improved operating results during the current year, compared with the prior year which included negative incentive compensation expense related to the reversal of previously accrued expense, as well as increased legal and professional fees associated with the recent acquisition of Mrs. Beasley’s, which was acquired during March 2011. During the nine months ended March 27, 2011, general and administrative expenses decreased by 2.2% over the prior year period, primarily as a result of reduced health insurance costs due to plan redesign and decreased legal fees associated with litigation which was settled in the prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change		March 27, 2011		March 28, 2010		% Change

Other income (expense) consists primarily of interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs, partially offset by income earned on the Company’s available cash balances.

Interest expense decreased during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 compared to the prior year periods, as a result of reduced amounts outstanding under the Company’s term loans and reduced borrowing costs.

Income Taxes

During the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 the Company recorded income tax benefit and expense from continuing operations of $(2.1) million and $3.9 million, respectively, compared to $(3.5) million and $1.4 million in the respective prior year periods. The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011 was 44.3% and 40.2%, respectively, compared to 36.9% and 54.5% in the respective prior year periods. These effective tax rates from continuing operations differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and other permanent non-deductible items, offset by various tax credits.

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. The sales price of the assets was $17.0 million, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital (net proceeds amounted to $10.5 million). Consequently, the Company has classified the results of operations of its Home & Children’s Gifts segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Results for discontinued operations are as follows:

	Three Months Ended							Nine Months Ended

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 27, 2011, the Company had working capital of $26.7 million, including cash and equivalents of $16.8 million, compared to working capital of $23.0 million, including cash and equivalents of $27.8 million, at June 27, 2010.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $11.8 million for the nine months ended March 27, 2011 was primarily related to net income, adjusted for non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation, offset in part by seasonal changes in working capital, including increases in inventory, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses due to the upcoming spring selling season, expanded wholesale product assortment, and timing of the Easter holiday.

Net cash used in investing activities of $12.3 million for the nine months ended March 27, 2011 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures, primarily related to the Company's technology infrastructure, as well as the acquisition of selected assets of Mrs. Beasley’s in March 2011.

Net cash used in financing activities of $10.5 million for the nine months ended March 27, 2011 was primarily for the repayment of bank borrowings on outstanding debt and long-term capital lease obligations. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility as of March 27, 2011.

On April 16, 2010, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2010 Credit Facility”). The 2010 Credit Facility included a prepayment of approximately $12.1 million, comprised primarily of the proceeds from the sale of the Home & Children’s Gifts segment in January 2010, and thereby reducing the Company’s outstanding term loan under the facility to $60 million upon closing. The term loan, which matures on March 30, 2014, is payable in sixteen quarterly installments of principal and interest beginning in June 2010, with escalating payments at the rate of 20% in year one, 25% in years two and three and 30% in year four.

Despite the current challenging economic environment, the Company believes that cash flows from operations along with available borrowings from its 2010 Credit Facility will be a sufficient source of liquidity. The Company typically borrows against the facility to fund working capital requirements related to pre-holiday manufacturing and inventory purchases which peak during its fiscal second quarter before being repaid prior to the end of that quarter.

On January 21, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase to its stock repurchase plan which, when added to the funds remaining on its earlier authorization, increased the amount available for repurchase to $15.0 million. Any such purchases could be made from time to time in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions, subject to general market conditions. The repurchase program will be financed utilizing available cash. As of March 27, 2011, $12.2 million remains authorized but unused.

At March 27, 2011, the Company’s contractual obligations from continuing operations consist of:

	Payments due by period
	(in thousands)
	Total		Less than 1 year		1 – 2 years		3 – 5 years		More than 5 years

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial position and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc., which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory and long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets related to acquisitions. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Net revenues are generated by E-commerce operations from the Company’s online and telephonic sales channels as well as other operations (retail/wholesale) and primarily consist of the selling price of merchandise, service or outbound shipping charges, less discounts, returns and credits. Net revenues are recognized upon product shipment. Shipping terms are FOB shipping point. Net revenues generated by the Company’s BloomNet Wire Service operations include membership fees as well as other products and service offerings to florists. Membership fees are recognized monthly in the period earned, and products sales are recognized upon product shipment with shipping terms of FOB shipping point.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers or franchisees to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers or franchisees were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Inventory

The Company states inventory at the lower of cost or market. In assessing the realization of inventories, we are required to make judgments as to future demand requirements and compare that with inventory levels. It is possible that changes in consumer demand could cause a reduction in the net realizable value of inventory.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired and is evaluated annually for impairment. The cost of intangible assets with determinable lives is amortized to reflect the pattern of economic benefits consumed, on a straight-line basis, over the estimated periods benefited, ranging from 3 to 16 years.

The Company performs an annual impairment test during its fiscal fourth quarter, or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist, to evaluate goodwill. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill, the Company reviews both quantitative as well as qualitative factors to support its assumptions with regard to fair value. Judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on market conditions and operational performance of the Company. Future events could cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that goodwill and other intangible assets associated with our acquired businesses is impaired.

Capitalized Software

The carrying value of capitalized software, both purchased and internally developed, is periodically reviewed for potential impairment indicators. Future events could cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that capitalized software is impaired.

Stock-based Compensation

The measurement of stock-based compensation expense is based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The Company determines the fair value of stock options issued by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. The dividend yield is based on historical experience and future expectations. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Black-Scholes model also incorporates expected forfeiture rates, based on historical behavior. Determining these assumptions are subjective and complex, and therefore, a change in the assumptions utilized could impact the calculation of the fair value of the Company’s stock options.

Income Taxes

The Company has established deferred income tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and the income tax bases of its assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled. The Company has recognized as a deferred tax asset the tax benefits associated with losses related to operations, which are expected to result in a future tax benefit. Realization of this deferred tax asset assumes that we will be able to generate sufficient future taxable income so that these assets will be realized. The factors that we consider in assessing the likelihood of realization include the forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets.

It is the Company’s policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. To the extent that the Company prevails in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, the Company’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

No new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year has had or is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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 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;

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 filing for the fiscal year ended June 27, 2010 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.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates primarily from its investment of available cash balances in money market funds and investment grade corporate and U.S. government securities, as well as from outstanding debt. As of March 27, 2011, the Company’s outstanding debt, including current maturities, approximated $50.1 million.

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 these swaps is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. If in the future the interest rate swap agreements were determined to be ineffective or were terminated before the contractual termination dates, or if it became probable that the hedged variable cash flows associated with the variable-rate borrowings would stop, the Company would be required to reclassify into earnings all or a portion of the unrealized losses on cash flow hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Exclusive of the impact of the Company’s interest rate swap agreement, each 50 basis point change in interest rates would have had a corresponding effect on our interest expense of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million during the three and nine months ended March 27, 2011.

ITEM 4. 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 March 27, 2011.
