NARRATIVE

FTD Companies, Inc. (the “ Company ”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2019 (the “ Quarterly Report ”). The Company is unable to file its Quarterly Report within the prescribed time period or within the five day extension period permitted by the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission without unreasonable effort and expense.
As previously disclosed, on June 3, 2019, the Company and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries (together with the Company, the “ Debtors ”) filed voluntary petitions commencing cases under chapter 11 of title 11 of the U.S. Code (the “ Bankruptcy Code ”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “ Bankruptcy Court ”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (together, the “ Chapter 11 Cases ”) are being jointly administered under the caption, In re FTD Companies, Inc., Case No. 19-11240 (LSS) (Bankr. D. Del.). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.
Effective August 1, 2019, following approval of the sale by an order of the Bankruptcy Court on August 1, 2019, Provide Creations, Inc. (“ Provide Creations ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of the Company’s Personal Creations personalized gifts business (the “ Personal Creations Sale ”), pursuant to the stalking horse asset purchase agreement, dated June 23, 2019, by and among Provide Creations and certain other subsidiaries of the Company and PlanetArt, LLC.




On July 31, 2019, FTD, Inc. (“ FTD Inc. ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into the second amended and restated asset purchase agreement (the “ Second A&R APA ”) with Gateway Mercury Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of Nexus Capital Management LP, a California-based private equity sponsor (the “ Purchaser ”), pursuant to which the Purchaser agreed to acquire the Company’s North America and Latin America florist and consumer business, including the ProFlowers business (the “ FTD/ProFlowers Sale ”). The Second A&R APA was entered into following the completion of an auction process in which the Purchaser was declared the winning bidder. On August 9, 2019, the Second A&R APA and the FTD/ProFlowers Sale were approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Completion of the FTD/ProFlowers Sale is subject to customary closing conditions.
On July 31, 2019, Provide Commerce LLC (“ Provide Commerce ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “ Gourmet Foods APA ”) with SBGF Acquisition, LLC (the “ Gourmet Foods Purchaser ”), an affiliate of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc., to acquire the Company’s Shari’s Berries online retail gourmet foods and food gifting business (the “ Gourmet Foods Sale ”). The Gourmet Foods APA was entered into following the completion of an auction process in which the Gourmet Foods Purchaser was declared the winning bidder. On August 9, 2019, the Gourmet Foods APA and the Gourmet Foods Sale were approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Completion of the Gourmet Foods Sale is subject to customary closing conditions.
The Company expects that its remaining assets will be liquidated in the Chapter 11 Cases.
As a result of the events described above and other events related to the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company is currently focused on administering the Chapter 11 Cases, including attending to issues related to the Personal Creations Sale, the FTD/ProFlowers Sale and the Gourmet Foods Sale, as well as continuing to run the business. Accordingly, the Company is unable to perform the work that would be necessary to complete and file the Quarterly Report within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense.
As a result of the sale or liquidation of the Company’s assets, the Company does not expect to file the Quarterly Report. As a debtor-in possession under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company files monthly operating reports with the Bankruptcy Court. The Company cautions that these reports include financial statements that are limited in scope, cover a limited time period, are prepared solely for the purpose of complying with requirements applicable in the Chapter 11 Cases and are in a format acceptable to the U.S. Trustee and are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Investors and potential investors should not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the monthly operating reports, which are not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company.

EXHIBIT A

The Company does not intend to file the Quarterly Report due to the events described in Part III of this Form 12b-25 and the impending liquidation of its remaining assets. The Company believes that, based on the information currently available to it, the Company’s operating results for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2019 were significantly different from those for the comparable prior period due to developments that have occurred in the Company’s business over the past year, including those described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the events described in Part III of this Form 12b-25. The registrant is currently unable to provide a reasonable estimate of its results for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2019 for the reasons described in Part III of this Form 12b-25.
