I'll now turn the call over to Jim McCann. James F. McCann: Good morning, everyone. During this first quarter, seasonally our smallest, we achieved total revenue growth of approximately 3%, driven by solid performance in our Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets and BloomNet businesses, which more than offset slightly lower revenue in our Consumer Floral segment. Importantly, we anticipate both top and bottom line growth in our 1-800-FLOWERS brand during the current fiscal second quarter and for the full year, led by further expanding our leadership position in the floral category. In our Gourmet Food and Gift Basket segment, we saw strong revenue growth driven by increased shipments of gift basket orders. This business, which returned to positive growth last year, is continuing to rebound nicely, with both increased order volumes from existing customers and an expanding list of new customers. Based on our book of orders in this business, sales will also be up year-over-year for the current fiscal second quarter. Also within our Gourmet Food and Gift Basket segment, we saw continued e-commerce growth during the first quarter in our Cheryl's, Fannie May and Popcorn Factory brands, which we believe bodes well for the current fiscal second quarter, which includes the key holiday season. Our BloomNet business also showed solid revenue growth during the quarter, driven by further market penetration for its expanded suite of products and services. BloomNet continues to grow its market position versus the older competing wire services as florists across the country increasingly embrace them as the growth and innovation leader in the industry. We saw this illustrated first hand at our annual floral convention this past month. The high-energy event took hundreds of professional florists and vendors from around the country who gathered to celebrate the unique growth opportunities, educational programs and innovative technologies that BloomNet is bringing to the florist community. As we head into the key holiday season, we are cognizant of the challenges and distractions facing consumers, including the dysfunctional antics in our nation's capital and the continued uneven economic landscape. With that said, we believe we are well positioned to achieve our top and bottom line growth targets by leveraging the strength of the 1-800-FLOWERS brand and our great family of gift brands; our unique and still evolving multi-brand website designed to be our customers' go-to destination for all of their gifting needs; our truly original product offerings, which help differentiate us from the commodity-focused competition; innovative marketing programs that engage directly with our customers, such as our new #JustBecause campaign; our industry-leading initiatives in the fast-growing mobile and social arenas where we are making it even easier for our customers to connect and express themselves and deliver smiles. I'll now turn the call over to Bill for a review of the financial and operating metrics for the quarter. William E. Shea: Thank you, Jim. Let's look at our first quarter results. We see a number of positive trends in our business. During the quarter, BloomNet returned to top line growth and continued its strong margin expansion. In our Gourmet Food and Gift Basket segment, we head into the key holiday season -- as we head into the key holiday season, our Fannie May business, which stumbled last year, is performing well with solid e-commerce growth and improved execution across its operating platform. As a result, we believe Fannie May is poised to rebound nicely this quarter. We are also seeing continued e-commerce growth in our Cheryl's and Popcorn Factory brands, and as Jim mentioned, our Gift Basket business had a strong first quarter and will be up again in the current fiscal second quarter. Lastly, while sales in our Consumer Floral segment were below our targets for the first quarter, we are confident that the marketing and merchandising initiatives we have underway will help drive both top and bottom line growth for the current quarter and the year. Now regarding specific financial results and key metrics from continuing operations for the first quarter, total net revenues from continuing operations increased 2.9% to $123 million compared to $119.6 million in the prior year period. During the quarter, our e-commerce orders totaled $1,265,000 compared with $1,231,000 in the year-ago period. Average order size during the quarter was $62.70 compared with $65.87 in the prior year period. During the quarter, we added 375,000 new customers compared with 355,000 new customers in the prior year period. This was achieved while concurrently stimulating repeat orders from existing customers who represented 62.6% of total revenues compared with 64.1% in the prior year period. Gross margin for the quarter was 41.7%, up 40 basis points compared with 41.3% in the prior year period. This was driven by 20 and 340 basis point increases in our Consumer Floral and BloomNet segments, respectively, related to product mix and enhanced customer satisfaction. These increases more than offset a decline of 130 basis points in Gourmet Food and Gift Basket segment, which reflected product mix, specifically increased shipments of gift basket orders during the quarter. Operating expense ratio, including depreciation and amortization, was 46.6% of total revenues compared with 45.7% in the prior year period, primarily reflecting increased marketing and other investments for the upcoming holiday season. For the quarter, depreciation and amortization was $4.7 million compared with $4.4 million in the prior year period. As a result of these factors, EBITDA loss from continuing operations for the quarter, excluding stock-based compensation, was a loss of $1.3 million compared with a loss of $800,000 in the prior year period. Including the impact of stock-based compensation, EBITDA loss for the quarter was $2.4 million compared with a loss of $1.8 million in the prior year period. And net loss from continuing operations and net loss were essentially unchanged at $4.6 million, or $0.07 per share, compared with the prior year. Turning to category results. 1-800-FLOWERS. During the first quarter, revenues in this category declined 1.7% to $71.6 million compared with $72.8 million in the prior year period. Gross margins for the quarter increased 20 basis points to 39.1% compared with 38.9% in the prior year period. And category contribution margin was $6.4 million, down 6.6% compared with $6.9 million in the prior year period. This primarily reflected the lower revenues, as well as higher spending in preparation for the upcoming holiday season. The company defines category contribution margin as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and before allocation of corporate overhead expenses. In BloomNet, revenues increased 2.9% to $20.3 million compared with $19.8 million in the prior year period. Gross margin increased 340 basis points to 53% compared with 49.6% in the prior year period. The strong increase primarily reflected revenue mix, which was skewed higher to services during the quarter. For the quarter, category contribution margin increased 11.1% to $6.4 million compared with $5.8 million in the prior year period. And our Gourmet Food and Gift Basket segment. Revenues increased 15.1% to $31.2 million compared with $27.1 million in the prior year period. This reflects increase shipment of gift baskets, as well as solid e-commerce growth in our Cheryl's, Fannie May and Popcorn Factory brands. As Jim noted earlier, we also expect to report an increase in gift basket orders for the current fiscal second quarter as order volumes in this business have increased again this year from both existing and new customer accounts. Gross margin for fiscal 2014 first quarter was 39.2% compared with 40.5% in the prior year period, reflecting the increase in gift basket shipments to mass market customers in this period. Category contribution margin improved to a loss of $2 million compared with a loss of $2.3 million, reflecting the increased revenue for the period. Turning to corporate expense. As I stated earlier, our category contribution margin results exclude costs associated with the company's enterprise shared services platform, which includes, among other services, IT, HR, finance, legal and executive. These functions are operated under a centralized management platform providing support services to the entire organization. For the fiscal first quarter, corporate expense from continuing operations, including stock-based compensation, was $13.2 million compared to $12 million in the prior year period, reflecting investment spending in preparation for the upcoming holiday period. Now turning to our balance sheet. At the end of the fiscal first quarter, our cash and investments position was approximately $3.6 million. Borrowings for working capital under our revolving credit facility were approximately $71 million, reflecting the seasonally of our Gourmet Food and Gift Basket business, specifically the increased investment in inventory for the upcoming holiday period. Inventory was approximately $91.5 million, which is within management's expectations and reflects the aforementioned increase in our basket business as well as the buildup for the holiday season. We anticipate that we will finish the current fiscal second quarter with significantly reduced inventories, zero borrowings under our revolving credit line and a strong cash position. Regarding guidance, we are reiterating our top and bottom line guidance for fiscal 2014, which calls for revenue growth across all 3 our business segments, with consolidated revenue growth for the year expected to be in the mid-single-digit range. Also, based on our expectation of continued improvements in gross profit margin and operating leverage, we anticipate achieving year-over-year increases in EBITDA and EPS at rates in excess of our revenue growth. We also anticipate generating free cash flow of approximately $20 million for the year. I'll now turn the call to our President, Chris McCann. Christopher G. McCann: As Jim mentioned earlier, the fiscal first quarter is our smallest due to the lack of gifting holidays during the summer months. However, the period is anything but slow for the talented people working in our new product development and merchandising areas, our marketing and PR departments and across a broad range of projects in IT and in our supply chain. Throughout the quarter, they've been working to lay the foundation for our holiday season marketing and merchandising programs, and I am very excited by the opportunities I see for us to enhance our top and bottom line performance across all of our brands. On the marketing front, we recently launched our new #JustBecause campaign developed early this year and featured as part of our appearance on the AMC reality show, The Pitch, which I hope everyone saw. #JustBecause was designed from the start to be social by nature, less an ad campaign than a movement. One that engages directly with our customers and encourages them to share their own just-because content in the form of stories, experiences, memories and all of their just-because reasons for giving. We're doing this across the social landscape, on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Google+, Vine and others, as well as on our own social hub that we created, where we collect all this content in one place and encourage our customers to share their stories. #JustBecause was inspired by the conversations already taking place in the social arena about all of the just-because reasons people have to make someone smile every day. While it's still early in the campaign, we're already seeing excellent response from our customers in the form of increased engagement across all of our brands, including excellent response in our mobile channels. We'll be tweaking the campaign throughout the year, and we're confident it can help us drive both new customer acquisition and deepen the relationships we have with our millions of existing customers. On the product development front, we continue to focus on working directly with our customers to develop truly original gifts that help them deliver smiles. At The Popcorn Factory, we know that among our customers, there are popcorn lovers and there are popcorn fanatics . With the help of these fanatics, appropriately named our pop stars, our product development team has created a new VIP line, which stands for Very Indulgent Popcorn. VIP flavors include dark chocolate and sea salt, my personal favorite, toasted coconut, white chocolate peppermint candy cane and a drizzled butter toffee almond pretzel mix, all destined to be big hits this holiday season. At Fannie May, we've created a new limited-time-only gift box of chocolate truffles in great holiday flavors such as cinnamon spice, eggnogs and pumpkin spice. And we've added the new mocha praline crunch to Fannie May's iconic collection of flavors, specifically targeting the growing demand for gourmet dark chocolate confections. At Cheryl's, we've expanded our successful Cookie Flower Pots line with a unique selection of keepsake ceramic pots perfect for holiday gifting. We're also very excited about Cheryl's new collaboration with one of America's leading radio personalities, Delilah, known as the most listened-to woman on radio in the United States. Delilah is a nationally recognized author, mother and philanthropist known for her inspiring dialogue with listeners. Delilah has embraced Cheryl's hugely popular cookie cards as her very own, creating special and customized messages designed to help her millions of listeners deliver smiles. As you can tell, we're very excited by our great lineup of truly original gifts for the upcoming holiday season and by our new #JustBecause customer engagement campaign. We believe these initiatives, among others, will help further set us apart from the competition. I'll now turn the call back to Jim for the wrap-up. James F. McCann: To wrap up, our fiscal first quarter results reflect a number of positive trends that are particular important as we head into the key holiday season, including solid e-commerce growth across our Gourmet Food segment and a continuing rebound in our Gift Baskets business. Improved operating performance in our Fannie May business, reflecting the changes and investments we've made in that business during the second half of last year. As a result, we believe Fannie May is positioned to rebound nicely in the current quarter and for the full year. Our BloomNet business is, once again, growing its revenues while driving strong increases in gross margin and contribution dollars. And our Consumer Floral business is poised to grow both its top and bottom line through a combination of merchandising programs focused on truly original product designs, such as our signature a-DOG-able, Happy Hour and flower birthday cake collections, featuring exclusive designs for Halloween and the holiday season, as well as everyday gifting. Marketing programs focused on real customer engagements, such as our new #JustBecause initiative with its customer-generated messaging, that emphasizes the power of delivering smiles every day, any day and for any reason. And our initiatives in the increasingly important social and mobile space, where, once again, 1-800-FLOWERS has staked out a leadership position. That concludes our formal remarks, and I'll now open the call for questions. Shannon, can you please restate the instructions for the Q&A portion?

[Operator Instructions] Our first question is from Jeff Stein of Northcoast Research. Jeffrey S. Stein: A couple of questions. It looks like you were able to successfully avoid being dragged into kind of some of the promotional pricing that we saw across retail in the first quarter, particularly in your Consumer Floral division. And I'm wondering, as we approach the holiday season, are you prepared to be -- maintain that discipline if the environment gets promotional? Or do you have kind of a backup plan in the event that it turns into a more challenging environment? Christopher G. McCann: Jeff, this is Chris. I think what we've seen for the past 2 years -- 2-plus years, really, is good, steady growth in the Consumer Floral business while, at the same time, continuing to enhance our margin. We've done this, really, with a very, very disciplined approach towards growth. We will -- and we have the financial flexibility, we always say, to step on the gas pedal a bit when we see the consumer responding appropriately. So in any kind of holiday season, especially as we move more and more so into the floral holiday, not so much the Christmas holiday season, we see our competitors being extremely aggressive in discounting and promotional activities. But I think you'll see us continue to be able to take a very disciplined approach to managing both top line growth and gross margin. Jeffrey S. Stein: Okay, very good. And a question for Bill. I'm wondering if you can -- excluding the growth that you saw in your wholesale Gift Basket business, can you give us some indication in terms of what percentage growth increase we saw in the other Gourmet Food brands collectively and maybe rank them in terms of which were the best and moving down to the weakest. William E. Shea: Yes, Jeff. So what we saw in Gourmet Food and Gift Basket, we saw strong e-commerce growth, really, across the enterprise, so that really did include Cheryl's, which has been strong for a number of years; Popcorn Factory, which we saw a very strong last year, and that continued into this quarter; but importantly, we saw it at Fannie May as well. We saw nice e-commerce growth at Fannie May. And to Chris' point with gross margins that he was talking about on Consumer Floral earlier, if we backed out the gift baskets that we sold to the mass merchant customers, gross margins within the Gourmet Food and Gift Basket category would have been up in that category as well. James F. McCann: Jeff, this is Jim. The e-commerce growth across the platform, I think that was probably the order of growth that Bill talked about. Cheryl's continue to grow and accelerate their growth. Popcorn now fully participating in that growth. Fannie May is showing the signs of the steps we took throughout the spring and the summer months are really starting to show some results, and we see that earliest in the e-commerce growth there. Jeffrey S. Stein: So would you describe collectively, if we look at the Gourmet Food brands, excluding the wholesale Gift Basket business, would it be fair to say -- was it kind of a low single digit, mid-single digit? How would you describe it? And the reason I'm asking is that that revenue stream is very dominant in the second quarter, and historically has outstripped floral. So that -- what you have seen so far might be a good barometer of what we could expect to see for holiday. James F. McCann: I think that's how we view it, Jeff. Our decision over the last several years to broaden our consumer product offerings and to do it in a way that we had good margins and we control the product as we develop brands that were brands that we own, I think, is starting to really show the kinds of dividends. And I think you're right, especially in this quarter, when the gifting of our food gift brands really comes to the fore. So the basket business, the chocolate business, the bakery gift business and the popcorn business all have their strongest quarter in this fourth calendar or second fiscal quarter. I'll turn it to Bill for his comments on your specific questions about growth percentages. William E. Shea: Yes, I think overall, without the gift baskets sold to the mass merchant channel, we would be kind of mid-single-digit growth within the overall category, but e-commerce at a high-single-digit growth. Jeffrey S. Stein: Great. That's very helpful. And one final question. I'm wondering if you could talk a little bit about the fruit bouquet business and how that initiative is progressing, how many florists are now carrying the product and where you see yourselves going for the balance of the year. Christopher G. McCann: I think FruitBouquets is -- continues to be a future growth area of ours. It's continuing to ramp up nicely. As we said in the past quarter or 2, it's a steady ramp-up. It's nothing explosive there. What we are very encouraged by is what we continue to see what we call same zip sales. So kind of looking at a same-store sales component of where we've had the coverage last year, continues to see good growth there, and we continue to look at the coverage necessary. But that's a good, steady growth, and I think you'll just continue to see it steadily over the next couple of years. Jeffrey S. Stein: And Chris, roughly what percent coverage do you have in the U.S. right now? Christopher G. McCann: Well, we haven't really broken that out, but again, it's ramping up. And what you'll see as it ramps up, you'll continue to see us market -- our marketing activity behind it start to increase. And that will be an indicator of where the growth is -- where the growth percentage is.

Our next question is from Dan Kurnos of The Benchmark Company. Daniel L. Kurnos: Jim, just on a high-level basis here, just thinking about macro versus seasonality versus competition, maybe could you parse out for us which was the greatest contributor in the quarter to the Consumer Floral coming in maybe a little bit lighter than your expectations? And then as a follow-on to that, on the advertising side, we did see some de-leverage in the Consumer Floral EBITDA margin, and I'm assuming that might have been forward spend. But I'd like to sort of get a sense from you guys how effective you think the radio campaigns are right now. And furthermore, you've talked about mobile and product launches, but any thoughts on your ad strategy once you're sort of 100% live and everybody's going to the same web page with the cross-branded platform? James F. McCann: That's a simple question. The answer is yes. Dan, I'll try and get to the pieces of the question here, and everyone will chip in. So far, the macro environment clearly is not the best macro environment for us. I would love to see the category growing -- the categories we play in, the gift food category, the gift category, the gift floral category, I'd love to see them growing in double digits. But frankly it just seems that they're not. The fact that we're growing 3% this quarter, planning on growing strong mid single digits for the year with outsized bottom line growth tells you that we feel confident that even if the environment doesn't improve, and we're not planning on it, that we continue to grow. And that's going to be some taking share. I'd rather it be all the categories are growing. But I think we've demonstrated a discipline, which was evidenced in the first quarter in our floral sales, that we had a decent quarter but we didn't reach -- we were disciplined. We improved margins, and we kept our powder dry for the quarters when we can really move the needle. And I think our product mix that I just addressed in Jeff's question, where we've invested heavily in those pieces of our consumer business that really speak to the opportunities in this fiscal second, calendar fourth quarter, are serving us well. You heard that the growth -- from Bill that the growth in those businesses organically was in the mid-single-digit range in this first quarter. That gives us a good indication of how we're set up to perform in the second quarter. Overall, the growth was 15%. That included some of our mass merchant -- market business and our basket business. So all of those things seem to set up nicely. So I think from a marketing perspective, I'll turn that to Chris, but we're certainly not going to tell you what our marketing plans are for the quarter in this form. But we're confident, we'll be disciplined and we have a variety of options depending on how the consumer responds and what the competitive landscape looks like. Christopher G. McCann: Yes, a couple of things here, Dan. I think as we look at Consumer Floral, first of all, it's Q1, and Q1 is really -- there's no holiday simulation in Q1. Coupled with the fact that consumer confidence has certainly been a little bit draining in the past couple of months really puts an impact on the everyday gifting business segment. But one of the things that we're really excited about is the launch of our #JustBecause campaign to go after that everyday gifting segment. And I think you're seeing that in some our customer count increases early on and our order transactional increases as well. So we think we're well positioned to go after that and in coverage now as we start to move into the holiday season. So on the marketing mix point of view, again, as Jim said, we're very disciplined. We will move dollars around throughout the media, whether it be through mobile, through radio, depending on the results we're seeing. And we're able to be very quick and very nimble in doing so. As far as the contribution margin, Bill, does it follow spending? William E. Shea: Yes, I think we said in our formal remarks that with the slight decline in top line revenue. And yet still in prepping the holiday season... James F. McCann: Whoa. Overall we saw a 3% growth. And when you get a look at that, you do have to compare that to all of our consumer businesses. And we're kind of pleased with our 3% growth for the first quarter as it sets us up to reach our goals for the year quite nicely. Christopher G. McCann: Right. We're just focused on Consumer Floral, and we're still seeding the market as we head into the holiday season and launching our everyday campaign with #JustBecause during the first quarter. James F. McCann: So in summary, we're comfortable with our product mix. We think the decisions we've made over the last few years bode well, especially for this quarter. We're confident -- we're comfortable and confident in the momentum that we're seeing in the gift food categories in the first quarter and how that bodes for the second quarter and the degree in the baskets business. And overall, we think we have the right assets, pattern and plan. As Chris mentioned, the #JustBecause campaign was introduced to address the everyday business, where it's been a little bit tougher to grow over the last several years. But we still delivered our growth for the year by emphasizing the holiday periods, where we fish where the fish are. And that campaign just started, so we expect to have a positive impact throughout the year. Daniel L. Kurnos: Okay. I really appreciate it. Let me just ask a quick follow-up, and I promise it will be quick. In terms of the multi-branded or the cross-branded website, just anything that you're seeing there in terms of improvements in conversion rates? And a follow-up to the other on the Gourmet Food side, any improvement in Fannie May Berries and how that might contribute to the holiday period? James F. McCann: I'll cover Fannie May. Fannie May -- this is Jim. Fannie May Berries, we just introduced at the beginning of this calendar year. We just started to introduce it, I guess, for the fourth quarter last year, it's the first you saw it, and really introduced it for Valentine's Day. So we'd expect, like the fruit bouquet business, Fannie May Berries will be a good, long-term, big contributor to our overall business and growth. And we've not yet anniversary-ed that business, but the experiments have been good. The rollout has been good, so we think that becomes quite a big part of our Fannie May business and overall gift mix, just like we expect the FruitBouquets to contribute mightily over the next couple of years. Christopher G. McCann: And I'll start with our go-to-market strategy from a website perspective. We're continuing to see good results there. Not necessarily impact on conversion so much, but it's more of an impact on long-term customer value and gaining a greater share of wallet out of the customers as they get introduced to our additional brands, our additional product lines and then wanting -- coming back to use those products and those brands for additional gifting purposes throughout the year. So it's more of a lifetime value and share of wallet play than it is a short-term conversion play there. And you'll continue to see us do things in the web perspective, our CRM marketing efforts and mobile efforts to continue to introduce our customers to our great family of brands.

Our next question is from Michael Kupinski of Noble Financial.

This is actually Juan Bejarano in for Mike Kupinski. Just a follow-up on FruitBouquets. I just wanted to get a sense on when you guys think you can reach the 50% coverage mark. I believe this is when you guys start spending marketing dollars at a national level. Do you guys have a time frame? James F. McCann: We do, and we would expect that as Chris has been doing good, steady introduction. We think that this is the right model for us to introduce this business. It leverages assets we already have. It leverages relationships we already have in terms of our franchisees in the floral community. It leverages other assets as we bring them online. So yes, we have a definite plan. I won't be sharing that with you now, but there comes a tipping point, and I don't know that it's 50%, but it's probably north of 50%, before we can start spending any marketing dollars behind it. The good news is the 2 things that Chris mentioned. One is all we have to do is show its availability and the business is there. Our customers have been asking us for this product for years now. And when we can deliver it for them, they love it. It increases our share of wallet with that customer. It gets good word-of-mouth, and we're seeing zip code increases, that is year-over-year zip code increases, that are quite encouraging for us with no marketing support behind it. So yes, you'll see us as we get -- as soon as you see us turn on the marketing spigot here against this brand, we'll be able to talk to you more specifically about what kind of coverage we have. But until then, you can assume that we're not quite at the tipping point yet.

Okay. I just wanted to get a sense of -- I know the cookie cards were really successful last year. Are you guys seeing the same type of demand this year? Christopher G. McCann: Yes, I think what we're seeing -- and again, you see it somewhat in the result. I mean, in Q1, the numbers are small, but you see increased transactions, increased customer counts, AOV down a little bit, I think. I mean, just showing that the cookie cards and similar products like that are showing an attractiveness and an appeal to our customer base.

Our next question is from Danielle McCoy of Brean Capital.

Many of them have been asked, but I guess just looking at the floral space versus last year, is there anything distinct that you see different on a year-over-year basis? James F. McCann: On a year-over-year basis, no. I think you're seeing a couple of things. One is the -- our average ticket in the categories remained essentially flat. Our gross margins have improved. Our expense disciplines have been good. Our marketing campaigns have shown the yield that they want. So that positions us quite well and is on target for us to deliver what we said for the year. This is a quarter, the first quarter where you're not going to see a big pop. You could see a mistake, you could see a stumble, and of course, we didn't have that. What you saw is a quarter that set us up for this important quarter and then the 2 quarters to follow. So we're in a good spot from a discipline, marketing, merchandising and margin point of view.

[Operator Instructions] Our next question is from Anthony Lebiedzinski of Sidoti. Anthony C. Lebiedzinski: A couple of questions. First, looking at the wholesale Gift Basket segment, could you just comment as far as what you're seeing now in terms of revenue and number of customers versus what you saw before the recession? James F. McCann: Sure. This is Jim, Anthony. The part of the basket business where we resell products to mass merchants, I would say that we're well on our way to recapturing the best of our years before the recession. We're not quite there yet, but we've seen now 2 good years in a row there. So I'm so happy not to be talking about that being a drag on us. It's a lower-margin business, but it helps all the rest of our businesses go. And so the good news is that our -- we've seen both an increase in share from our existing customer base and new customers come to us for our very creative and unique products, which are often the exact same products that we bring -- very similar products that we bring to our customers under the 1-800-BASKETS brand and the basket business we do now increasingly with our BloomNet florists. So it's a great kernel of opportunity and knowledge for us. And as we see our top line sales growth, we see increased step with the existing customers and new customers, all gives us hope that we will not only catch where we were at peak in the near term but exceed it. Anthony C. Lebiedzinski: And also looking at the average order value, it was down slightly in the first fiscal quarter. What are your expectations for the second fiscal quarter and for the year for AOV? James F. McCann: Well, what we said is 2 things, Anthony. Our average order value in the largest segment, our floral segment, was the same as last year. And the good news is our average order value for overall is down, and as Chris just mentioned, that was due primarily to the success of our low-price-point price that we've introduced across our gift food and gift basket brands to give them the opportunity to mimic the success that we've had with our cookie card campaign and find lower price points. So I would hope that that would continue. That is that our flowers price points would remain in the same range as we increase order counts and customer counts. So that's the trend we expect there. And I hope we see our average order value continue to decrease as a result of extremely higher -- a lot higher volume just because of the introduction of these lower price points that we've had success with in the gift food categories. Anthony C. Lebiedzinski: Okay, got it. And then for BloomNet, are there additional opportunities to expand their product offerings? James F. McCann: Yes, there are, and I think you've seen some evidence this quarter. I'm glad you pointed out that because there was some concern at the end of last year what the trend was in BloomNet. We said we'd expect it to improve, and sure enough, this first quarter improved nicely. It's a good, growing business. We're increasing the depth of our relationship with our existing florists. Margins are quite good in that business, and we've just announced our partnership with U-2-Me, which is our hot Silicon Valley-based company that's in the online invitation arena. They have the largest, most comprehensive web-based education platform, and we partnered with them to introduce Fresh University, which really is a wonderful tool for our BloomNet florists to continue their education, to socially connect, to correspond and to advance the skills not only of themselves but of their employees, both in the floral category and beyond. So there's a rich offering there, and I think you can expect it will help create and build a community that we all look at. It will give us enhanced revenue opportunities and most importantly, help our BloomNet florists to develop their skills and improve their effectiveness and thereby, grow their businesses and improve their margins. So we're very excited about Fresh University, and our Floriology Institute is part of that, which we just announced in the last week or 2. Anthony C. Lebiedzinski: Okay. And lastly, how much as of now do you have left on your share repurchase program? James F. McCann: Bill, we had a $20 million authorization back in spring? William E. Shea: That we launched in the spring, so we still have the majority of it. James F. McCann: The majority of it. William E. Shea: Yes, the majority of it's still left.

Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. I would like to turn the conference back over to Jim McCann for closing remarks. James F. McCann: Thank you, Shannon, and thank you all for your questions and your interest today. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. As a reminder, we encourage you to join us on the conversations at #JustBecause, where you can tell us all the reasons you'd like to deliver smiles to those important people in your lives.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference. Thank you for your participation, and have a wonderful day.
