FTD Companies, Inc., along with fourteen affiliates and subsidiaries, has filed a petition for relief under chapter 11 in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (Lead Case No. 19-11240). FTD, based in Downers Grove, IL, is a premier floral and gifting company operating through the United States, Canada and internationally. According to the First Day Declaration, FTD has filed as a result of a strategic acquisition that failed to lead to anticipated benefits.

Omni Management Group is the proposed claims and noticing agent. The cases have been assigned to the Honorable Laurie Selber Silverstein.
