Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in Thousands)

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1BUSINESS

Harry & David Holdings, Inc. (the Company) is a vertically integrated multichannel specialty retailer and producer of branded premium gift-quality fruit, gourmet food products and gifts marketed under the Harry and
David®, Wolfermans® and Cushmans brands. For information regarding the Companys recent acquisitions see
Note 4  Acquisitions. The Company markets and sells its products through catalogs distributed through the mail, the Internet, business-to-business and consumer telemarketing, Company-owned stores and wholesale distribution to other
retailers.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company divested its Jackson & Perkins business. The results of operations and cash
flows of the Jackson & Perkins business are reported as discontinued operations. See Note 5  Discontinued Operations.

NOTE
2BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These financial statements include the consolidated results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The
condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the thirteen-week and the twenty-six week periods ended December 27, 2008 and
December 29, 2007, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the twenty-six week periods ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, have been prepared from the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements.

In managements opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which include those typically
recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at the balance sheet dates and the results of operations for the thirteen-week and twenty-six week periods then ended. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 28, 2008 presented in this Form 10-Q has been derived from the Companys audited balance sheet not included in this report.

The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for other interim periods in the fiscal year. In the
second quarter of each fiscal year, the Company realizes its highest sales for the fiscal year as such quarter includes the most significant holidays that drive the largest portion of the gift-giving component of the Companys sales. It is also
the period where the Company recognizes significant cost of goods sold and advertising expenses in connection with the increased sales.

The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and
therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles accepted in the United States for comparable annual financial statements. As allowed, certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted
from the interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended June 28, 2008, not included in this
report.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year statement of cash flows to conform to the current year presentation. The Company has
reclassified activity related to its accrued pension liabilities and income taxes to individual captions on its condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. In the prior period the activity related to accrued pension liabilities and income taxes
were included within Accrued Liabilities in the statement of cash flows. In addition to prior period reclassifications, as described in Note 4  Acquisitions the Company recorded reclassification from
Goodwill to Intangibles, net related to a purchase price allocation associated with its Wolfermans acquisition. Additionally, the Company has reclassified amounts related to its outstanding gift cards to Deferred
Revenue from Accrued Liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets with corresponding reclassifications on its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

The Companys total comprehensive loss for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 of $29,747 and $14,551, respectively, includes an
adjustment (net of tax) to comprehensive income (loss) related to its deferred pension amortization of $29 and $58, respectively. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 there were no differences between the Companys
net income and comprehensive income.

NOTE 3NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND ADOPTIONS

In December 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ( FASB) issued Staff Position (FSP) 132(R)-1, Employers Disclosures about
Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets, which provides additional guidance on an employers disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. This interpretation is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. The Company will adopt this interpretation in fiscal 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FSP 132(R)-1 on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 162, The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (SFAS 162). SFAS 162 identifies a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for non-governmental entities. SFAS 162 was effective November 15, 2008. The Companys adoption of SFAS 162 did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial
statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (FSP 142-3) which
amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. FSP 142-3 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt FSP 142-3 in fiscal year 2010. Early adoption is prohibited. The guidance for determining the useful life of a
recognized intangible asset in FSP 142-3 is to be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The disclosure requirements in FSP 142-3 are to be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and
subsequent to, the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FSP 142-3 may have, if any, on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R (revised 2007), Business Combinations, which replaces
SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree and the goodwill acquired. The Statement also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business
combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not permitted. After the effective date, the Company will apply the
requirements of SFAS No. 141R to any future business combinations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards, which requires assets or liabilities to be
carried at fair value. This statement gives entities the option to record certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value with the changes in fair value recorded in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not elected the option to record certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value and, therefore, the adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which establishes
guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather it eliminates inconsistencies in the guidance found in various prior
accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and to allow additional time to resolve certain issues, the FASB delayed the effective date for one year for certain types of
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, via the issuance of FSP No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No.157. In October 2008, the FASB also issued FSP SFAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When
the Market for That Asset Is Not Active, which clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in an inactive market and illustrates how an entity would determine fair value when the market for a financial asset is not active. The Companys
adoption of this statement, effective June 29, 2008, except for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company currently holds cash and cash equivalents
that are subject to its current SFAS No. 157 adoption. The Company is continuing its evaluation of the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS No. 157 as it relates to nonfinancial assets and liabilities.

SFAS 157 defines fair value and establishes a three-level hierarchy for measuring fair value of certain financial instruments based on the source of information used to
determine fair value. SFAS 157 also expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The hierarchy of fair value measurements is described below.

Level
1  Valuations are based on quoted prices that the Company has the ability to obtain in actively traded markets for identical assets or liabilities. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an
active market or exchange traded market, valuation of these instruments does not require a significant degree of judgment.

Level 2  Valuations are
based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the
market. The Company has no financial instruments requiring Level 2 valuation.

Level 3  Valuations are based on model-based techniques for which some
or all of the assumptions are obtained from indirect market information that is significant to the overall fair value measurement and which require a significant degree of management judgment. The Company has no financial instruments requiring Level
3 valuation.

NOTE 4ACQUISITIONS

Cushmans

On August 8, 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets of Cushman Fruit Company, Inc. (the
Cushmans Acquisition), a privately held, multi-channel direct marketer of specialty foods, primarily Florida citrus, for a net purchase price of $8,507, including $448 of acquisition related costs.

The Company paid for the Cushmans Acquisition with available cash. The Companys revolving credit agreement was amended to permit the acquisition and to
address other administrative matters. Unless otherwise defined or noted, references in this Form 10-Q to Cushmans refers to the brand or business, as owned and operated by the Company, subsequent to the acquisition on
August 8, 2008. The operating results of Cushmans are included in the Companys results of operations only for periods subsequent to the acquisition date.

##### Table of Contents

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on managements estimates and assumptions, and other
information compiled by management utilizing established valuation techniques appropriate for the retail industry. The purchase price will be finalized upon ultimate payment of severance and costs associated with the exit of existing locations as
discussed below, incremental professional fees, as well as the Companys final determination of fair value of the acquired fixed assets and intangibles. The following table presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price of the
acquisition, including professional fees and other related acquisition costs, to the net assets acquired based on their fair values (in thousands):



|                      |  |   |       |  
|--------------------- |  | - | ----- | -
|Current assets        |  | $ | 853   |  
|Fixed assets          |  |   | 241   |  
|Intangible assets     |  |   | 2,600 |  
|Goodwill              |  |   | 5,391 |  
|                      |  |   |       |  
|Total assets acquired |  |   | 9,085 |  
|Current liabilities   |  |   | (578  | )
|                      |  |   |       |  
|Net assets acquired   |  | $ | 8,507 |  
|                      |  |   |       |  

The acquired intangible assets are comprised of
Cushmans and related trademarks totaling $1,489 and customer lists of $1,111. The trademarks have indefinite lives, while the customer lists will be amortized on a weighted basis
over a four year period. The $5,391 of goodwill is allocated to the Direct Marketing segment and is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. While goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, the
Company anticipates the acquisition will leverage its existing infrastructure and generate operating and marketing synergies and productivity improvements for its consolidated businesses.

In accordance with EITF Issue No. 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination, the Company recorded a liability of
$167 for severance costs related to managements plan for a reduction in force associated with the closure of the existing Cushmans locations. Managements plan for reduction in force and closure was developed concurrently with the
acquisition and requires the transition of certain functions to the Companys existing personnel and locations. The Company expects all exit activities to be complete within twelve months of the acquisition. As of December 27, 2008, all
amounts related to the severance and closure costs were unpaid and are included in Accrued payroll and benefits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, and the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 and
December 29, 2007, respectively, have been prepared as if the Cushmans acquisition had occurred at the beginning of those respective periods (in thousands, except per share data):

Prior to the acquisition, Cushmans utilized a calendar month-end for its fiscal periods. No adjustments have
been made to conform the activity to the Companys historical fiscal calendar.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations do not
purport to be indicative of results that may be obtained in the future and do not include any cost savings related to synergies expected to be obtained as the Cushmans business is integrated into the Companys operations. The unaudited
pro forma consolidated results of operations include adjustments to net income or loss to give effect to amortization of intangibles acquired, depreciation and related adjustments to fixed assets based on the fair value assigned to those assets and
income taxes.

Wolfermans

On January 15, 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of Wolfermans, LLC, a direct-marketing company specializing in English muffins and other breakfast products sold primarily under the
Wolfermans® brand, from Williams Foods, Inc., for a net purchase price of $22,784, which included $622 of transaction related expenses. The Company paid for the acquisition of
Wolfermans with available cash. The results of operations of Wolfermans are included in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods subsequent to the acquisition date.

##### Table of Contents

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based on managements estimates and assumptions, and other
information compiled by management utilizing established valuation techniques appropriate for the retail industry. During the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 the Company recorded a reclassification of $3,814 from customer lists to
goodwill as a result of managements review of the independent third party valuation firms final report and data underlying the related purchase price allocation assumptions. The Company considers the impact of the correction to be
immaterial to its result of operations and cash flows in the current and previously reported periods. The purchase price allocation below is considered final and includes professional fees and other related acquisition costs, allocated to the net
assets acquired based on their fair values (in thousands):

NOTE 5DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In connection with the sale, the Company entered into an agreement with the buyers to provide transitional services
through June 2008 (the Transitional Services Agreement). As of December 27, 2008, the Company continues to provide certain transitional services to the buyers of Jackson & Perkins. The revenue and expenses associated with
the continuation of these services are not expected to be material to the Companys operating results or financial condition. The revenues and expenses associated with the Transitional Services Agreement, as well as residual activity of the
divested business, are accounted for and reported as discontinued operations.

The financial results included in discontinued operations in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations were as follows:

The Company has recorded excess and obsolete inventory reserves against the various categories of inventories
noted above. Due to a significant decline in sales and order demand during the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2008, and the Companys evaluation of future sales for the remainder of fiscal 2009, the Company recorded inventory
write-downs of $6,228 at December 27, 2008, which were materially larger than the Companys historical experience.

As of December 27, 2008, purchased and internally developed software includes software licenses acquired for $1,863
financed through outstanding capital lease agreements. See Note 8  Borrowing Arrangements. Accumulated amortization of purchased and internally developed software costs was $16,270, $13,607 and $11,508 as of December 27,
2008, June 28, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively. Amortization of software costs, which include software assets financed through capital leases, were $1,365 and $930 for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 and
December 29, 2007, respectively, and $2,664 and $1,851 for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively.

Due to the decline in sales and order demand during the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008, and its evaluation of future sales for the remainder of fiscal 2009, the Company completed an evaluation of its Stores segment and related
fixed assets and certain other long-lived assets. As a result of that evaluation the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge for 30 stores at December 27, 2008 of $3,600, of which $3,471 was related to fixed assets and $129 to fair value
lease intangibles. The impairment charge was recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses within the fiscal 2009 condensed consolidated statement of operations. The impairment amount was calculated by comparing the applicable stores
net assets to fair value, which was based on a discounted cash flow model. During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007, the Company determined that one underperforming store was impaired and recorded a non-cash charge for
the impairment of long-lived assets in the amount of $192, reported in selling, general and administrative expenses in the fiscal 2008 condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Intangibles

Goodwill
and intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually using the guidance and criteria described in SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The impairment testing compares carrying values to fair
values, and generally, if the carrying value of these assets is in excess of fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized. The Companys goodwill is related to the Wolfermans and Cushmans reporting units included in the
Companys Direct Marketing segment. In accordance with SFAS 142, the Company tests goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment annually and on an interim date should factors or indicators become apparent that would require an impairment
test. Historically, the annual impairment testing has occurred during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for the reporting units.

Beginning in the
second quarter of fiscal 2009, the retail industry declined at a rate that exceeded the Companys forecasted expectations and negatively impacted the Companys operating results for the second quarter and the future outlook on the
industry. Management believed the decline in the overall industry, the resulting decline in the Companys operating results from plan, and downward revisions to financial forecasts to be factors that require the Company to perform an interim
impairment test in accordance with SFAS 142. As a result, in connection with the preparation of its second quarter financial statements, the Company performed an interim impairment test on its goodwill, indefinite lived and other intangible
balances.

The estimated fair value of each of the reporting units included the impact of trends in the business and industry noted in fiscal 2009,
primarily the decline in sales caused by the adverse economic climate. Using a discounted cash flows model, the Harry and David trade name, Wolfermans customer list and the goodwill and related intangibles associated with the Cushmans
acquisition were tested and no impairment was indicated as of December 27, 2008. Based on the testing the Company concluded that the fair values of the Wolfermans goodwill, recipe and trade name were greater than their related book
values, using a discounted cash flows model. As a result, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of $11,416 ($1,897 related to goodwill and $9,519 related to the recipe and trade name) in the second quarter within selling, general and
administrative expenses within the fiscal 2009 condensed consolidated statement of operations. No impairment charges were recorded in prior fiscal year comparable periods.

Amortization expense was $638 and $417 for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively, and $932 and $861 for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 and
December 29, 2007, respectively, and is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill and intangible assets as of December 27, 2008 include those assets acquired in the Companys fiscal 2008 acquisition of the Wolfermans business and its recent Cushmans Acquisition. See
Note 4  Acquisitions for further information. The following is a summary of intangible assets:

Impairment Estimates and Assumptions

The impairment charges related to our indefinite-lived intangible assets, our goodwill and long-lived assets associated with stores were calculated using managements estimates of future forecasted cash flows to
be generated from the respective assets and a discount rate inherent within the Companys cost of capital. The nature of these analyses requires significant judgment by management about future operating results, including revenues, margins,
operating expenses and applicable discount rate. If the Company had used different assumptions and estimates regarding the future operating results or discount rate, the impairment charges might have been materially different. However, management
believes that the assumptions and estimates are reasonable and represent the most likely future operating results based upon the current information available.

NOTE 7INCOME TAXES

For interim financial reporting purposes, tax expense or benefit is calculated based on the estimated effective
tax rate, adjusted to give effect to anticipated permanent differences. The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 were 38.8% and 36.5%, respectively.

Under FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  an interpretation of FAS 109,the Company classifies interest expense and
penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at December 27, 2008 will decrease by $1,992 within 12 months of the
reporting date as a result of the expiration of certain statute of limitations and the filing of amended returns. There have been no material changes to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits reported at June 28, 2008 during the thirteen and
twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008. The Company also anticipates that it is reasonably possible that new issues will be raised by tax authorities which may require increases to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits. However, an
estimate of such increases cannot reasonably be made.

NOTE 8BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

Revolving Credit Facilities

The Companys current revolving
credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) has a maximum borrowing capacity of $125,000, secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of March 20, 2011.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for the Companys general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, subject to certain limitations. Interest on the borrowings is payable at a base rate or a Eurocurrency rate, plus an
applicable margin and fees.

##### Table of Contents

As previously discussed, on August 8, 2008, the Companys Credit Agreement was amended to permit the
Cushmans Acquisition and to address other administrative matters. The Company did not incur any debt issuance fees related to this amendment. For purposes of applying the provisions of EITF 98-14, Debtors Accounting For Changes in
Line-of-Credit or Revolving Debt Arrangements, the amendments to the Credit Agreement were with the same primary creditor.

In connection with this
facility and related amendments, the Company had remaining deferred financing costs of $2,794 and $3,416 as of December 27, 2008 and June 28, 2008, respectively.

As of December 27, 2008, the Company had $0 borrowings and $573 in outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility. The maximum available borrowing under the Credit Agreement is determined in
accordance with an asset-based debt limitation formula. Total available borrowing capacity at December 27, 2008 was $13,603. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee equal to 0.375% per annum on the daily average unused line of
credit. The commitments fees are payable on the last day of each calendar year quarter and the associated expense is included within interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The terms of the Credit Agreement include customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The Credit Agreement
requires the Company to comply with certain covenants, which primarily include a minimum cash balance and limits to capital expenditures. At December 27, 2008 the Company was in compliance with all Credit Agreement covenants.

Long-Term Debt

As of December 27, 2008 the Companys
wholly-owned subsidiary, Harry and David, had outstanding $58,170 in Senior Floating Rate Notes due March 1, 2012 and $140,192 of Senior Fixed Rate Notes due March 1, 2013 (collectively, the Senior Notes). These amounts reflect
amounts repurchased by the Company on the open-market in fiscal 2008 and in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2009. For further details on the repurchases during to the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008, see
Long-Term Debt Repurchases below.

The floating rate Senior Notes accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 5%, calculated and
paid quarterly. The interest rate was set at 7.18% and 7.68% at December 27, 2008 and June 28, 2008, respectively. The fixed rate Senior Notes accrue interest at an annual fixed rate of 9.0%, with semiannual interest payments due on the
first day of March and December.

The deferred financing fees incurred in connection with the note offering and related exchange have been recorded as
deferred financing costs within long-term assets. These costs are amortized over the remaining life of the associated Senior Notes and as of December 27, 2008 and June 28, 2008, $4,368 and $5,850, respectively, remained on the balance
sheet for all associated fees related to the Senior Notes. As noted below under Long-Term Debt Repurchases, the Senior Notes deferred financing costs are subject to write-off on a pro-rata basis due to early repurchase or repayment of
the Senior Notes.

These Senior Notes represent the senior unsecured obligations of Harry and David, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harry &
David Holdings, Inc., and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and all of the Companys subsidiaries. The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains various restrictive covenants including, but
not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, asset dispositions, acquisitions, investments, dividends and other restricted payments, liens and transactions with affiliates. The Company was in compliance with all of the covenants at

ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively, and is included within interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Capital lease obligations

As of December 27, 2008 the Company had $1,089 of capital lease obligations
representing amounts outstanding to acquire certain software licenses through two vendors. The current and non-current portions of the Companys capital lease obligations are $633 and $456, respectively. The interest rates on these two

NOTE 9STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair-value method under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R) Share Base
Payment.The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses certain assumptions for use in the model. The expected volatility assumption is based on an average
historical volatility of the publicly traded stock of a representative set of comparable companies. The expected term of options granted utilized is either the final vesting date or a period derived from the time between the date of final vesting
and the expiration of the option, depending on the vesting provisions of the underlying grant. As the Companys shares are not registered, nor publicly traded on a national securities exchange, the liquidity of the option award is limited. As
such, the Company has assumed for purposes of estimating the expected term of the stock option that the vested awards would likely forfeit post-termination. The risk-free rate for the expected term is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect
at the time of grant. The Company did not grant stock options during the thirteen or twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008.

activity under the Plan for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 is presented below:

NOTE 10EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the
period, including the dilutive effect of stock options as determined under the treasury stock method. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007, weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period, including the
dilutive effect of stock options of 11,065 and 10,708, respectively, are included in the weighted average shares denominator for the calculation of diluted earnings per share for those periods. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended
December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, certain common shares relating to the stock options are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the related impact would have been anti-dilutive because the options had a
exercise price greater than the fair value of the common stock. The excluded options were 61,098 and 17,687 for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively and were 61,098 and 18,099 for the twenty-six
weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively. The basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is as follows (in thousands except share and per share data):

The Companys qualified and unqualified defined benefit plans were frozen effective June 30, 2007. The Company
has a continuing obligation to fund these plans and will continue to recognize net periodic pension cost under SFAS No.87, Employers Accounting for Pensions (SFAS No. 87).

NOTE 12COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to
legal proceedings in the ordinary course of, and which are incidental to, the Companys business. The Companys management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such proceedings would not have a material effect on
the Companys results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it may be
obligated to indemnify another party from losses arising in connection with the Companys products or services. The Company also enters into indemnification provisions under its agreements with other companies in the ordinary course of
business, typically with its contractors, customers and landlords. Under these provisions, the Company generally indemnifies and holds harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the
Companys activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified partys activities under the agreement. These indemnification provisions generally survive termination of the underlying agreement. In addition, the Company has entered
into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors that indemnify such persons for certain liabilities they may incur in connection with their services as an officer or director, and the Company has agreed to indemnify certain investors
for certain liabilities they may incur in connection with the sale of the senior notes to the initial purchasers and the 2005 exchange offer relating to the senior notes. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required
to make under these indemnification provisions is generally unlimited. As the Company believes that the occurrence of any events that would trigger payments under these contracts is remote, no liabilities have been recorded in the condensed
consolidated financial statements for these indemnifications.

The Companys food and horticultural products are subject to regulation and inspection
by various governmental agencies, and involve the risk of injury to consumers. As such, the Company may be required to recall some of its products. The Company maintains product liability insurance in an amount that it believes is adequate to cover
the costs associated with these recalls.

The Company leases certain properties consisting primarily of retail stores, distribution centers, and equipment
with original terms ranging from three to twenty-two years. Certain leases contain purchase options and renewal options. In addition to minimum rental payments, certain of the Companys retail store leases require the Company to make contingent
rental payments, which are based upon certain factors, such as sales volume and property taxes. Such contingent rental expense is accrued in each reporting period if achievement of any factor is considered probable.

Total rental expense for all operating leases was as follows:

On February 18, 2005, the Company established a Liquidity Event Award Program for each member of its senior
management team who had received stock options under the 2004 Stock Option Plan as of that date. The aggregate amount of all potential awards to senior management is equal to $6,372 or 7.5% of the portion of the proceeds from the sale of notes which
were distributed on February 25, 2005 to the Companys equity sponsors as a return of capital. The amount of each award, as a percentage of all awards, is proportional to the percentage of all of the options such member was awarded as of
February 18, 2005. The right to receive 20% of the award vested on June 17, 2005, an additional 20% of the award vested on June 17, 2006, and 5% vests quarterly over the next twelve successive quarters through June 2009. In each case,
vesting occurs so long as the award recipient is an employee of Harry & David Holdings, Inc. or its affiliates on the vesting date. Award recipients will not be entitled to receive any vested portion of their awards unless: (i) a
change of control (as so defined) occurs; (ii) the aggregate net sales proceeds in such change of control plus certain other distributions received by the Companys equity sponsors exceeds a certain level; (iii) the Company has
available cash, or if applicable, non-cash consideration equal to the aggregate of all awards; and (iv) certain other conditions are met. Distributions in respect of the awards will be payable in cash or, in some circumstances, the non-cash
consideration received in the change of control either at the time of the change of control or, in some circumstances, at a later specified date. As of December 27, 2008, 90% of the award was vested, representing $5,475, which also reflects
forfeitures. As of December 27, 2008, the Company has concluded that it is not obligated to accrue a liability or recognize any expense for the Liquidity Event Award Program for the thirteen weeks then ended.

NOTE 13SEGMENT REPORTING

Performance of business units is evaluated considering revenue growth achieved and potential profitability,
contribution to other units and capital investment requirements. Reportable segments are strategic business units that offer similar products and are managed separately because the business units utilize distinct marketing strategies. The accounting
policies of the segments, where applicable, are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting polices.

The results of the
Jackson & Perkins business are included as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations and footnotes for all periods presented.

The Direct Marketing segment generates net sales of premium gift-quality fruit, gourmet food products and gifts
under the Harry and David®, Wolfermans® and Cushmans brands by marketing through catalogs, the Internet,
business-to-business and consumer telemarketing operations. The Companys catalogs reach customers throughout the United States and, to a lesser extent, in Canada. The Stores segment generates net sales of Harry and David®, Wolfermans® and Cushmans merchandise at various retail
locations (outlet stores, specialty stores, and a Country Village Store). As of December 27, 2008, the Company operated 144 Harry and David stores and two Cushmans seasonal stores. The Wholesale segment generates net sales by selling
Harry and David® brand and Wolfermans® brand wholesale products to national retailers. Business units not disclosed
separately for segment reporting purposes are grouped in the Other segment and include commercial sales of surplus, non-gift quality fruit grown in the Companys orchards surrounding Medford, Oregon, and business units that support
the Companys operations, including orchards, product supply, distribution, customer operations, facilities, information technology services, and administrative and marketing support functions.

Net intersegment sales were $22,881 and $38,946 for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007 respectively and $91,991 and $130,252 for
the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively. Total assets in the Other segment include corporate cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, the net book value of corporate facilities and related
information systems, third-party and intercompany debt and other corporate long-lived assets, including the Companys manufacturing and distribution facilities.

NOTE 15SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 15, 2009 the Company announced a company-wide reduction in staffing of approximately 10% of salaried and full-time employees, excluding retail store employees. The Company is taking this action in the
face of the difficult retail sales environment, enabling it to have a work force sized appropriately to meet economic forecasts. The reductions in force impacted approximately 66 employees who will receive severance, a continuation of certain
benefits, and outplacement assistance. The Company estimates recording a charge between $1,500 and $2,000 in the third quarter related to this action.

OVERVIEW

General

We are a leading multi-channel specialty retailer and producer of branded premium gift-quality fruit and gourmet
food products and other gifts, which are marketed under the Harry and David®, Wolfermans® and Cushmans brands.
We market our products through multiple channels, including direct marketing (primarily catalogs and Internet), business-to-business, our stores and wholesale distribution through select retailers.

Recent Acquisitions

On August 8, 2008, we completed the
acquisition of certain of the assets of Cushman Fruit Company, Inc. (the Cushmans Acquisition), a privately held, multi-channel direct marketer of specialty foods, primarily Florida citrus, for a net purchase price of approximately
$8,507, and $448 of acquisition related costs. We paid for the Cushmans Acquisition with available cash balances. Our revolving credit agreement was amended to permit the acquisition and to address other administrative matters. Unless
otherwise defined or noted, references in this Form 10-Q to Cushmans refers to the brand or business, as owned and operated by us, subsequent to the acquisition on August 8, 2008. The operating results of Cushmans are
included in our results of operations only for the periods subsequent to the acquisition date. The operating results of Cushmans are included in our Direct Marketing segment.

On January 15, 2008, we completed the acquisition of Wolfermans, LLC, a direct-marketing company
specializing in English muffins and other breakfast products sold primarily under the Wolfermans® brand, from Williams Foods, Inc., for a net purchase price of approximately $22,784.
We paid for the acquisition of Wolfermans with available cash balances. The operating results of Wolfermans are included in both of our Direct Marketing and Wholesale segments according to the nature of the operating activity.

Debt repurchases

During the thirteen weeks ended
December 27, 2008, we purchased $26,438 of our fixed rate Senior Notes in open market purchases for $13,259. This debt prepayment resulted in a net gain of $12,573, comprised of a $13,179 discount on the repayment of outstanding principal,
partially offset by the write-off of $606 of unamortized deferred financing costs.

During the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2008, we purchased
$10,200 of our fixed rate Senior Notes in open market purchases for $7,107. This debt prepayment resulted in a net gain of $2,843, comprised of a $3,093 discount on the repayment of outstanding principal, partially offset by the write-off of $250 of
unamortized deferred financing costs.

As a result of the above transactions we recorded a net gain of $15,416 during the twenty-six weeks ended
December 27, 2008.

Information in this Form 10-Q.

Sale of the Jackson & Perkins business

We divested our Jackson & Perkins business in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. In connection with the sale of the business, we entered into an agreement with the buyer to provide transitional services
through June 2008. As of December 27, 2008, we continue to provide certain transitional services to the buyers of Jackson & Perkins. The revenue and expenses associated with the continuation of these services is not expected to be
material to our operating results or financial condition.

For further information regarding the divestiture of the Jackson & Perkins businesses,
see Note 5- Discontinued Operations in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements within Part I of this Form 10-Q.

Unless
otherwise noted, the results of our former Jackson & Perkins segment are generally not discussed in this managements discussion and analysis, which is limited to continuing operations.

MATTERS AFFECTING COMPARABILITY

A portion of our Direct Marketing sales are derived from Fruit-of-the-Month Club® product shipments. As such, results in this segment may vary between
periods due to variations in fruit availability year-to-year, as well as other factors. Further, our recent acquisitions affect the comparability to the current year results to the comparable prior period.

Net sales from continuing operations of $307,726 for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008, decreased
$56,252, or 15.5%, from the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007. The decline in net sales was driven by lower volumes and higher markdowns and discounts in the Harry & David Direct Marketing, Stores and Wholesale divisions,
partially offset by the addition of Wolfermans and Cushmans brand sales in the fiscal quarter.

Net sales from continuing operations of
$360,333 for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008, decreased $59,099, or 14.1%, from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. The decline in net sales was driven by lower volumes and higher markdowns and discounts in the
second fiscal quarter in the Harry & David Direct Marketing, Stores and Wholesale divisions. These declines were partially offset by the addition of Wolfermans and Cushmans brand sales.

Direct Marketing

Net sales in our Direct Marketing segment decreased $45,415, or 16.7%, from the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008. The decline was driven by reduced overall order demand in our
Harry and David Direct marketing division and to a lesser extent, lower average order unit size reflecting higher discounts and the timing of Fruit-of-the-Month Club® shipments, which
primarily shipped in fiscal January this year versus fiscal December last year. These declines attributable to our Harry and David division were partially offset by the addition of Wolfermans and Cushmans products.

Net sales in our Direct Marketing segment decreased $45,135, or 15.3%, from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the twenty-six weeks ended
December 27, 2008. The decline was attributable to the same factors mentioned above for the thirteen week period.

Stores

Our Stores segment net sales decreased $9,844, representing a 13.9% decline in total sales and a comparable stores sales decline of 15.4% or approximately $10,600, from
the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008. The decrease was driven by lower customer traffic and overall transaction volume, reflecting similar trends in the broader retail market. The
decrease was partially offset by approximately $2,512 net sales contribution from our new (non-comparable) stores.

##### Table of Contents

Our Stores segment net sales decreased $11,403, representing a 11.9% decline in total sales and a decline of 14.1% or
approximately $13,155, on a comparable store basis, from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008. The decrease was driven by lower customer traffic and overall transaction volume,
reflecting similar trends in the broader retail market. The decrease was partially offset by a $3,931 contribution from our new (non-comparable) stores.

As of December 27, 2008, we had 144 stores in operation compared to 146 stores in operation during the same quarter last fiscal year. Not included in the store counts above are two seasonal Cushmans stores, and three temporary
stores that were tested this season.

A store becomes comparable in the first fiscal month after it has been open for a full twelve fiscal months, at which
point its results are included in comparable sales comparisons. When a stores square footage has been changed as a result of reconfiguration or relocation in the same mall or retail complex, the store continues to be treated as a comparable
store. However, when a store is closed for an extended period of time, it is no longer treated as a comparable store and is excluded from comparable sales comparisons for that period.

Wholesale

Our Wholesale segment net sales declined $890, or 4.5%, from the thirteen weeks ended December 29,
2007 to the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008. The decline was primarily due to lower volumes with certain large wholesale customers, slightly offset by increased sales to key drop-ship channel customers, and Wolfermans wholesale
activity.

Our Wholesale segment net sales declined $2,474, or 9.0%, from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the twenty-six weeks ended
December 27, 2008. The decline was primarily due to the same factors mentioned above.

Other

Other segment net sales, which primarily consist of commercial fruit products, decreased $103, or 9.5% from the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the
thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008.

Other segment net sales decreased $87, or 6.1%, from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 to the
twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008.

Direct Marketing

Our
Direct Marketing segment gross profit decreased $42,309, or 27.1%, with gross margin declining to 50.3% in the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 57.5% in the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross profit and gross
margin declines were primarily due to lower overall product demand, higher product and delivery markdowns and discounts, and to a lesser extent the addition of slightly lower gross margins in our acquired brands. Also contributing to the declines
were increased inventory reserves, higher material costs, and the effect of lower sales volume over our fixed costs, slightly offset by lower delivery expense.

Our Direct Marketing segment gross profit decreased $44,090, or 27.2%, with gross margin declining to 47.2% in the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 54.9% in the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross
profit and gross margin declines were primarily due to the same factors discussed above for the thirteen week period.

Stores

Our Stores segment gross profit decreased $7,763, or 21.0%, with gross margin declining to 47.8% in the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 52.1% in the
thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross profit decline was primarily due to lower sales volume and increased product discounts. The decline in gross margin was attributable to higher product discounts reflecting a more aggressive
promotional stance driven by increased competition across the broader retail market. Also contributing to the gross margin decline was the effect of lower sales on our fixed costs, slightly offset by lower freight costs.

Our Stores segment gross profit decreased $8,255, or 17.1%, with gross margin declining to 47.5% in the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 50.5% in the
twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross profit decline was primarily due to lower sales volume and increased product discounts. The decline in gross margin was attributable to the same factors as described above.

Wholesale

Our Wholesale segment gross profit increased $183 or 5.8%,
while gross margin increased to 17.5% in the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 15.8% in the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross profit and gross margin increases were primarily attributable to a shift in shipments
across channels leading to lower overall freight costs as well as the sales increases in the drop-ship channel noted above.

Our Wholesale segment gross
profit decreased $653 or 11.6%, while gross margin decreased to 19.9% in the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 from 20.5% in the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. The gross profit decrease was attributable to lower sales
volume and higher fulfillment costs. The gross margin decline was driven by higher freight and fulfillment costs and higher inventory write-offs in the first fiscal quarter.

continuing operations increased $18,250, or 21.0% in the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 from the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to $15,016 of non-cash
charges for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets related to acquisitions and store impairments, the addition of Wolfermans® and Cushmans advertising costs in the Direct Marketing segment, partially offset by lower advertising costs in the Harry & David Direct Marketing division and lower payroll costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations increased $17,662, or 14.1% in the twenty-six
weeks ended December 27, 2008 from the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was driven primarily by the factors discussed above.

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales were 34.1% in the thirteen-week period ended December 27, 2008,
compared to 23.8% in the thirteen-week period ended December 29, 2007, and 39.6% in the twenty-six-week period ended December 27, 2008, compared to 29.9% in the twenty-six week period ended December 29, 2007.

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE

For the thirteen-week period ended
December 27, 2008, other income was $6,747 compared to other expense of $6,017 in the thirteen-week period ended December 29, 2007. Other income for the thirteen weeks ended December 27, 2008 was comprised of a $12,573 gain on debt
repurchases, as previously described, partially offset by net interest expense of $5,863, For further details on our debt repayment activity see Note 8  Borrowing Arrangements in Part I. of this Form 10-Q. The primary source of
other expense for the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2007 was net interest expense of $6,438.

Other income for the twenty-six weeks ended
December 27, 2008 was $3,839 compared to other expense of $12,184 in the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. Other income for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 was comprised of a $15,416 gain on debt repurchases, as
previously described partially offset by net interest expense of $11,600, The primary source of other expense for the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 was net interest expense of $12,439.

INCOME TAXES

For interim financial reporting purposes, tax
expense or benefit is calculated based on the estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted to give effect to anticipated permanent differences. For fiscal 2009, the difference in the effective rate and the federal statutory rate is primarily due to
state tax obligations.

EBITDA

Our EBITDA from
continuing operations for the thirteen-week period ended December 27, 2008 decreased $55,366 primarily due to our operating performance which included $15,016 of impairment charges partially offset by the gain on debt repayment discussed above.
EBITDA from continuing operations for the twenty-six week period ended December 27, 2008 decreased $54,480 primarily due these same factors.

For an explanation of why management believes EBITDA is a useful measure for understanding our results of operations and
a reconciliation of EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure, see note on page 40, Non-GAAP Financial Measure: EBITDA. The following table reconciles EBITDA from continuing operations to net cash provided by operating activities, which
we believe to be the closest GAAP liquidity measure to EBITDA, and net income, which we believe to be the closest GAAP performance measure to EBITDA (dollars are in thousands).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary liquidity and capital resource needs are to service our debt, finance working capital and make capital expenditures. Due to the highly seasonal nature of our business, we rely heavily on our revolving
credit facility to finance operations leading up to the December holiday selling season. Our available cash and borrowings are used to fund inventory and inventory related purchases, catalog advertising and marketing initiatives leading up to the
holiday selling season. Generally, cash provided by operations peaks during the fourth calendar quarter (our second fiscal quarter) because of the holiday selling season (see Seasonality below).

Based upon our historical results, current operations and strategic plans, we believe that our cash flow from operations, together with available cash and borrowings
under our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, lease payments and scheduled interest payments and to fund our operations for the next twelve months, although
there can be no assurance that continued or increased volatility and disruption in the global capital and credit markets will not impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us or at all. Certain loan covenants in
the revolving credit facility and in the indenture governing the Senior Notes restrict the transfer of funds from the direct and indirect subsidiaries to the parent in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities from Continuing Operations

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled $71,992 in the twenty-six week period ended December 27, 2008, compared to $122,906 in the twenty-six week period ended December 29, 2007. The decrease in
cash provided by continuing operations was primarily attributable to lower operating income driven by the factors previously described in Results of Operations.

Cash Flows Provided by Investing Activities from Continuing Operations

Cash provided by investing activities from
continuing operations totaled $2,187 in the twenty-six week period ended December 27, 2008, compared to $13,254 in the twenty-six week period ended December 29, 2007. Investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2009 consisted
primarily of proceeds on short-term investments, partially offset by cash used for the Cushmans Acquisition and other capital expenditures. Investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2008 consisted primarily of proceeds from the sale of
short-term investments, partially offset by capital expenditures.

Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities from Continuing Operations

Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations totaled $20,523 for the twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008, compared to $10,741 in cash provided
in the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. In both periods, financing activities were primarily comprised of the repurchases of our Senior Notes.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations

Cash flows provided by operating activities from discontinued operations totaled $735 for
twenty-six weeks ended December 27, 2008 and $1,874 the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007. Cash from discontinued operations for both periods was primarily due to cash payments made to us for transitional services we provided to the
buyers of Jackson & Perkins.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were $3,105 for the twenty-six weeks ended December 29, 2007 and
were primarily comprised of the proceeds received for certain amounts due in connection with the sale of Jackson & Perkins in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. There were no such amounts in fiscal 2009.

The divested Jackson & Perkins business did not impact our cash flows from financing activities.

Borrowing Arrangements

Revolving Credit Facility

Our principal sources of liquidity are available
cash, cash flows from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility entered into by our subsidiary, Harry and David. The revolving credit facility has a maturity date of March 20, 2011. Our ability to borrow under the
revolving credit facility is subject to compliance with the borrowing base and with financial covenants and other customary conditions, including that no default under the facility shall have occurred and be continuing. Borrowings under the
revolving credit facility bear interest, at our option, at either a base rate, based on the higher of the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the corporate base lending rate of UBS AG, or a Eurodollar rate, based on the rate offered in the London
interbank market (LIBOR), plus in each case a borrowing margin determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, we draw on our revolving credit facility to provide seasonal working capital
to support inventory buildup and catalog production in advance of the holiday selling season and for other general corporate purposes. We have typically generated substantial amounts of cash each holiday selling season. We are required by our banks
to pay down the revolving credit facility to zero by the next business day following December 25thof each year. Cash generated during the
holiday selling season is also typically used to fund our operations for several months during the post-holiday selling season, until we begin to build inventories and other working capital components to support our next holiday selling season.

As of December 27, 2008, we had $0 in borrowings and $573 in letters of credit outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The maximum available
borrowings under the credit agreement are determined in accordance with our asset-based debt limitation formula. Total available borrowings at December 27, 2008, were approximately $13,603. We are required to pay a commitment fee equal to
0.375% per annum on the daily average unused line of credit. The commitments fees are payable on the last day of each calendar year quarter and the associated expense is included within interest expense in the consolidated statement of
operations.

Harry and Davids obligations under the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by us and by all of Harry and Davids
existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries and are secured by first-priority pledges of the stock of Harry and Davids and each of the subsidiary guarantors equity interests and 65% of the equity interests of any
future first-tier foreign subsidiaries, as well as first-priority security interests in and mortgages on all of our, Harry and Davids and each of the subsidiary guarantors respective tangible and intangible property.

The revolving credit facility requires mandatory prepayments upon the receipt of proceeds from certain assets sales, casualty events and debt offerings. The revolving
credit facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for senior secured credit facilities of this type, including, but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, capital expenditures, asset dispositions,
acquisitions, investments, dividends and other restricted payments, liens and transactions with affiliates.

In addition, the revolving credit facility
requires that, on a consolidated basis, we maintain as of December 31 an available cash balance (defined as all cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, minus all accounts payable) of $50,000, failing which we are required to meet and
maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, subject to certain definitions and conditions. As of December 31, 2008, we were in compliance with this covenant. We also are limited to the amount of capital expenditures in each fiscal year,
subject to certain adjustments, through the term of the revolving credit facility.

Our ability to comply with these covenants and to meet and maintain
such financial ratios and tests may be affected by events beyond our control, such as those described under Item 1A  Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part III, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
If we do not meet and maintain these financial ratios, we may not be able to borrow and the lenders could accelerate all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable which could also trigger a similar right under other agreements, including
our indenture.

At December 27, 2008, we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Long-term Debt

As of December 27, 2008, Harry and
David, our wholly owned subsidiary, has outstanding $58,170 in Senior Floating Rate Notes due March 1, 2012, and $140,192 of Senior Fixed Rate Notes due March 1, 2013 (collectively, the Senior Notes). The $58,170 in Senior
Floating Rate Notes accrues interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 5%, calculated and paid quarterly. The interest rate was set at 7.18% at December 27, 2008. The $140,192 in Senior Fixed Rate Notes accrues interest at an annual fixed
rate of 9.0%, with semiannual interest payments due on the first of March and December.

The Senior Notes are the senior unsecured obligations of
Harry and David are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by us and all of Harry and Davids subsidiaries.

##### Table of Contents

The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains various restrictive covenants including, but not limited to,
limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, engaging in asset dispositions or acquisitions, making investments, and our and our subsidiaries ability to pay dividends and other restricted payments, our ability to incur liens and transactions
with affiliates. Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, such as those described under Item 1A. -Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part III, Item 1A of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. If we do not remain in compliance with these covenants, we may not be able to borrow additional funds when and if it becomes necessary, and the holders of the Senior Notes and lenders under the credit facility could accelerate
all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

At December 27, 2008, we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the indenture.
Our debt service requirements consist primarily of interest expense on the Senior Notes and on any current and future borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our other short-term cash requirements are expected to consist mainly of cash to
fund our operations, capital expenditures, cash payments under various operating leases and repayment of any borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We expect to finance any future acquisitions using cash, capital stock, debt securities or the assumption of indebtedness. However, the restrictions imposed on us by the agreements governing our debt outstanding at the time may affect this
strategy. In addition, to fully implement our growth strategy and meet the resulting capital requirements, we may be required to request increases in amounts available under our revolving credit facility, enter into new credit facilities, issue new
debt securities or raise additional capital through equity financings. We may not be able to obtain an increase in the amounts available under our revolving credit facility on satisfactory terms, if at all, and we may not be able to successfully
complete any future bank financing or other debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms, if at all. As a result, our ability to make future acquisitions is uncertain. We may also incur expenses in pursuing acquisitions that are never consummated.

Based upon our current operations and historical results, we believe that our cash flow from operations, together with available cash and borrowings under
our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, lease payments and scheduled interest payments and to fund our future growth for the next 12 months. To the extent
additional funding is required beyond the twelve-month horizon, we expect to seek additional financing in the public or private debt or equity capital markets. Our equity sponsors, Wasserstein & Co. and Highfields Capital Management, are
not obligated to provide financing to us. If we are unable to obtain the capital we require to implement our business strategy on acceptable terms or in a timely manner, we would attempt to take appropriate actions to tailor our activities to match
our available financing, including revising our business strategy and future growth plans to accommodate the amount of available financing.

Certain funds
sponsored by Wasserstein Partners, LP, and its affiliates (Wasserstein) and certain funds sponsored by Highfields Capital Management LP (Highfields) currently own approximately 63% and 34%, respectively, of our common stock.
Wasserstein and/or Highfields may from time to time seek to purchase our outstanding Senior Notes in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions and other
factors, and there can be no assurance as to when or whether any such purchases may occur. The amounts involved may be material.

Seasonality

Historically, our business has been subject to substantial seasonal variations in demand. A significant portion of our net sales and net earnings are
realized during the holiday selling season from October through December, and levels of net sales and net earnings have generally been significantly lower during the period from January to September. We believe this is a general pattern for the
direct-to-customer and retail industries, but it is more pronounced for our company than for others due to the gift-giving nature of our products.

Accordingly, changing economic conditions or deviations from projected demand for products during the fourth calendar quarter can have a materially favorable or adverse impact on our financial position and results for the full year. Because
we commit to certain fixed costs in anticipation of expected sales during the holiday selling season in the fourth calendar quarter, if our actual sales during that calendar quarter are lower than anticipated, our results of operations and
profitability will be negatively impacted. As demonstrated in the current fiscal quarter which experienced a material decline in sales, our operating income from continuing operations declined by $68,143 and cash flows from operating activities
declined by $54,715. In addition, our primary growing season occurs during the second and third calendar quarters. Because we must commit to certain fixed costs before we know the results of a particular harvest, inclement weather conditions and
agricultural pests leading to lower harvest yields can also negatively impact our sales and profitability.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the same critical accounting policies discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The estimates
and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experiences and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE: EBITDA

Regulation G, Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, and other provisions of the 1934 Act, define and prescribe the conditions of use of certain non-GAAP financial information. Our measure of EBITDA meets
the definition of a non-GAAP financial measure.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and
is computed on a consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year.

We use EBITDA, in conjunction with GAAP measures such as cash flows from
operating activities, cash flows from investing activities and cash flows from financing activities, to assess our liquidity, financial leverage and ability to service our outstanding debt. For example, certain covenant and compliance ratios under
our revolving credit facility and the indenture governing the outstanding notes use EBITDA, as further adjusted for certain items as defined in each agreement. If we are not able to comply with these covenants, we may not be able to borrow
additional amounts, incur more debt to finance our ongoing operations and working capital or take other actions. In addition, the lenders could accelerate the outstanding amounts, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and
financial position.

We use EBITDA, in conjunction with the other GAAP measures discussed above, to assess our debt to cash flow leverage, to plan and
forecast overall expectations and to evaluate actual results against such expectations; to assess our ability to service existing debt and incur new debt; and to measure the rate of capital expenditure and cash outlays from year to year and to
assess our ability to fund future capital and non-capital projects. We believe that, like management, debt and equity investors frequently use (and expect to be able to continue to use) EBITDA to compare debt to cash flow leverage among companies.

EBITDA, when used as a liquidity measure, has limitations as an analytical tool. These limitations include:



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA is not a measure of discretionary cash available to us to pay down debt;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To compensate for these limitations, we analyze EBITDA in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures impacting liquidity and cash flow, including depreciation and
amortization, capital spending and net income in terms of the impact on depreciation and amortization, changes in net working capital, other non-operating income and losses that affect cash flow and liquidity, interest expense and taxes. Similarly,
you should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for these GAAP liquidity measures.

We also use EBITDA, in conjunction with GAAP measures
such as operating income and net income, to assess our operating performance and that of each of our businesses and segments. Specifically, we use EBITDA, alongside the GAAP measures mentioned above, to measure profitability and profit margins and
to make budgeting decisions relating to historical performance and future expectations of our operating segments and business as a whole, and to make performance comparisons of our company compared to other peer companies. We believe that, like
management, debt and equity investors frequently use (and expect to be able to continue to use) EBITDA to assess our operating performance and compare it to that of other peer companies.

Furthermore, we use EBITDA (in conjunction with other GAAP and non-GAAP measures such as operating income, capital expenditures, taxes and changes in working capital) to measure return on capital employed. EBITDA
allows us to determine the cash return before taxes, capital spending and changes in working capital generated by the total equity employed in our company. We believe return on capital employed is a useful measure because it indicates the total
returns generated by our business, which, when viewed together with profit margin information, allows us to better evaluate profitability and profit margin trends.

##### Table of Contents

As a performance measure, we also use return on capital employed to assist us in making budgeting decisions related to
how debt and equity capital is being employed and how it will be employed in the future. Historical measures of return on capital employed, which include the use of EBITDA, are used in estimating and predicting future return on capital trends.
Combined with other GAAP financial measures, historical return on capital information helps us make decisions about how to employ capital effectively going forward. However, because EBITDA does not take into account certain of these non-cash items,
which do affect our operations and performance, EBITDA has inherent limitations as an operating measure. These limitations include:



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect the cash cost of acquiring assets or the non-cash depreciation and amortization of those assets over time, or the replacement of those
assets in the future;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditures on an historical basis or in the current period, or address future requirements for capital expenditures or
contractual commitments;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA is not a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect changes in working capital or cash needed to fund our business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | EBITDA does not reflect our tax expenses or the cash payments we are required to make to fulfill our tax liabilities; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To compensate for these limitations we analyze EBITDA alongside other GAAP financial measures of operating performance, including, operating income, net income and
changes in working capital, in terms of the impact on other non-operating income and losses that affect profitability and return on capital. You should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for these GAAP measures of operating
performance.



|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES REGARDING MARKET RISK
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------

We
are exposed to certain market risks as part of our normal business operations, including risks from changes in interest rates and commodity prices, which could impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We plan to manage
our exposure to these and other market risks through regular operating and financing activities and on a limited basis, the use of derivative financial instruments. We intend to use such derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and
not for speculative investment purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest on our floating rate notes and on our borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrues at variable rates based on factors such as LIBOR and the federal funds overnight rate. Assuming we were to borrow the entire amount
available under our revolving credit facility, together with the principal amount due for our floating rate notes as of December 27, 2008, a 1.0% change in the interest rate on our variable rate debt would result in a $1,832 corresponding
effect on our interest expense on an annual basis.

Commodity Risk

We have commodity risk as a result of some of the raw materials we utilize in our business, including paper for our catalog operations, corrugated packaging for our shipping needs, chocolate, butter fat, sugar and
cheese used to produce some of our products, and fruit that we do not grow ourselves. Although we do not enter into formal hedging arrangements to manage our commodity risk, we typically have multiple sources for these commodities.



|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

We have carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The evaluation examined
those disclosure controls and procedures as of December 27, 2008. Based upon this evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of December 27, 2008, our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

Other than the addition of the risk factor below,
there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2008:

The recent changes in general economic conditions, and the impact on consumer confidence and consumer spending, could adversely impact our results of operations.

The Companys performance is subject to general economic conditions and their impact on levels of consumer confidence and consumer spending. Recently, consumer
confidence and consumer spending have deteriorated significantly, and could remain depressed for an extended period. Some of the factors influencing this deterioration include fluctuating interest rates and credit availability, fluctuating fuel and
other energy costs, fluctuating commodity prices, higher levels of unemployment, higher consumer debt levels, reductions in net worth based on market declines, and general uncertainty regarding the overall future economic environment. Consumer
purchases of discretionary items, including our merchandise, generally decline during periods where disposable income is adversely affected or there is economic uncertainty, and this could adversely impact our results of operations.
