1-800-Flowers.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLWS#NASDAQ">FLWS</a>) stock closed Wednesday at $10.00 per share, down more than 9%.
The company could miss the sales estimate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and issue its fiscal 2025 guidance below Street expectations, according to DA Davidson.
The 1-800-Flowers Analyst: Linda Bolton Weiser downgraded coverage of 1-800-Flowers from Neutral to Underperform, while reducing the price target from $11 to $8.
The 1-800-Flowers Thesis: Bloomberg debit card data, which is 94% correlated to sales, indicates a decline of 15% year-on-year in sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, versus a 13% decline in the prior quarter F3Q24, Weiser said in the downgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
This suggests that the consensus estimate of a 6% year-on-year decline in the fiscal fourth-quarter sales may prove to be too high, she added.
The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index, which is currently in the 60s-70s, needs to be consistently above 80 for 1-800-Flowers to return to low-single-digit sales growth, the analyst added.
"Consumers have tended to show up more on the big gift-giving holidays like Mother&#8217;s Day, but FLWS&#8217; everyday gifting business (which is the majority of sales) has been very anemic," she further wrote.
FLWS Price Action: Shares of 1-800-Flowershad declined by 9.09% to $10.00 at the time of publication on Wednesday.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average Index reached a new record high of 41,198 points Wednesday, closing 0.6% higher and extending its winning streak to six <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/dow-jones-industrial-average">consecutive sessions in the green</a>.
Blue-chip stocks, tracked by the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>), found a strong ally in July&#8217;s seasonality. Just a year ago, the Dow Jones began a remarkable bull run of 13 consecutive sessions starting on July 10.
This year&#8217;s Dow rally is distinguished not only by new record highs but by its outperformance relative to the tech sector.
Over the last six sessions, the Dow Jones has risen by 5%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 fell by 3.3%. Therefore, it has outperformed the Nasdaq 100 by 8.3 percentage points in the most recent six sessions.
To find another six-day period where blue chips outpaced tech by such a margin, we have to go back to July 2002.
