Discontinued Operations

        In the second quarter of 2003, certain of the Company's businesses, consisting of USA Electronic Commerce Solutions ("ECS"), Styleclick, Inc. and Avaltus, Inc., a subsidiary of PRC, ceased operations. Accordingly, the results of operations and statement of position of these businesses are presented as discontinued operations. In addition, through May 7, 2002, the Company's results included the USA Entertainment Group, consisting of USA Cable, including USA Network and Sci Fi Channel and Emerging Networks TRIO, Newsworld International and Crime; Studios USA, which produces and distributes television programming; and USA Films, which produces and distributes films. The USA Entertainment Group was contributed to a joint venture with Vivendi Universal, S.A. ("Vivendi") on May 7, 2002 (the "VUE Transaction"). As a result, the results of operations and statement of position of USA Entertainment are presented as a discontinued operation. The net gain on contribution of the USA Entertainment Group to VUE for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 was $2.4 billion. The net income (loss) related to these discontinued businesses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $38.3 million and ($17.7 million), respectively, net of tax, and the net income (loss) related to these discontinued businesses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $33.6 million and ($0.1 million), respectively, net of tax. The 2003 results were due primarily to a tax benefit realized for the discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2003.

Basis of Presentation

        The interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of the Company are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002.

        In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto are presented as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not contain certain information included in the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, which can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Accounting Estimates

        Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. They also impact the reported amount of net earnings during any period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

        Significant estimates underlying the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the inventory carrying adjustment, sales return and other revenue allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, recoverability of intangibles and other long-lived assets, and various other operating allowances and accruals.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

        In July 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only

10



when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted this statement and the application of SFAS 146 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees

        In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45 (FIN 45), Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 will significantly change current practice in the accounting for and disclosure of guarantees. Under FIN 45, guarantees are broadly defined to include, among others, product warranties, indemnification provisions, and standby letters of credit. Guarantees meeting the characteristics described in FIN 45, which are not included in a long list of exceptions, are required to be initially recorded at fair value, which is different from the general current practice of recording a liability only when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, as those terms are defined in SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies. FIN 45 also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for virtually all guarantees even when the likelihood of the guarantor's having to make payments under the guarantee is remote. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted the disclosure and initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 and the application of FIN 45 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Accounting by Reseller for Cash Consideration Received From a Vendor

        In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue 1 of Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Reseller for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. This consensus provides guidance on the circumstances under which cash consideration received from a vendor by a reseller should be considered: (a) an adjustment of the prices of the vendor's products or services and, therefore, characterized as a reduction of cost of sales when recognized in the reseller's income statement, (b) an adjustment to a cost incurred by the reseller and, therefore, characterized as a reduction of that cost when recognized in the reseller's income statement, or (c) a payment for assets or services delivered to the vendor and, therefore, characterized as revenue when recognized in the reseller's income statement. The consensus is effective for arrangements entered into after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted this consensus and the application of EITF Issue No. 02-16 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

        In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 will significantly change current practice in the accounting for and disclosure of variable interest entities. Under FIN 46, a business enterprise that has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity would include the variable interest entity's assets, liabilities and results of operations in their consolidated financial statements. This Interpretation is different from the general current practice of consolidating only those entities in which an enterprise has a controlling voting interest. The requirements of FIN 46 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2003 for variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003 and immediately for all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. We are currently assessing the impact of the provisions of FIN 46 and we believe that the application of FIN 46 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

        In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure" which amends FASB Statement No. 123. This statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 123 (SFAS 123). The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for fiscal year ending after December 15, 2002. The Company will provide expense for stock based compensation on a prospective basis, and will continue to provide pro forma information in the notes to financial statements to provide the results as if SFAS 123 had been adopted in previous years. The Company intends to issue restricted stock units that will vest in future periods instead of stock options, although the Company may issue some stock options to employees of certain subsidiaries in 2003 as it completes the transition to 100% restricted stock. For restricted stock units issued, the accounting charge is measured at the grant date and amortized ratably as non-cash compensation over the vesting term.

        The following table illustrates the effect on earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period:

        For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures since the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the vesting period and additional options may be granted in future years.

12



        Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS 148. The information is determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair market value method. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2003 and 2002: risk-free interest rates of 2.78% in 2003 and 2.78% in 2002; a dividend yield of zero; a volatility factor of 50% and 50%, respectively, based on the expected market price of IAC common stock based on historical trends; and a weighted-average expected life of the options of five years.

        The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair market value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair market value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Certain Risks and Concentrations

        The Company's business is subject to certain risks and concentrations including dependence on relationships with travel suppliers, specifically airlines and hotels, dependence on third-party technology, exposure to risks associated with online commerce security and credit card fraud. Expedia is highly dependent on its relationships with six major airlines in the United States: United, Delta, American, Continental, Northwest and US Airways. The Company also depends on global distribution system partners and third party service providers for processing certain fulfillment services.

        Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are of high-quality short to intermediate term agency securities and corporate debt securities, all of which are maintained with high credit quality financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits.

Derivative Instruments

        The Company recognizes all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of the derivatives are recorded each period in the statement of operations or other comprehensive income (loss). For a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into the statement of operations when the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivatives recognized as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative in the period of change and the offsetting loss or gain of the hedged item attributed to the hedged risk are recognized in the statement of operations. All of the Company's derivative instruments entered into to date have been designated as a hedge of the Company's exposure to changes in fair value of recognized assets or liabilities or as a hedge of the Company's exposure to variability in expected future cash flows of recognized assets or liabilities.

Reclassifications

        Certain amounts in the prior years' consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation. The results of operations and statements of position of the USA Entertainment Group, ECS, Styleclick and Avaltus have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

NOTE 5 INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

        IAC reports Operating Income before Amortization that is a supplemental measure to GAAP. This measure, among other things, is one of the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. Management believes that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. Operating Income before Amortization is defined as operating income plus (1) amortization of non-cash distribution, marketing and compensation expense, (2) amortization of other intangibles, (3) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions and (4) one-time items. Operating Income before Amortization is presented here as a management tool and as a valuation methodology. Operating Income before Amortization does not purport to represent cash provided by operating activities. Operating Income before Amortization should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Operating Income before Amortization may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

        The following is a reconciliation of Operating Income to the non-gaap measure of Operating Income before Amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Furthermore, the Company has provided a reconciliation of Operating Income to Operating Income before Amortization by segment in management's discussion and analysis.

NOTE 7 RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

        As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a balance of $7.7 million restructuring reserve accrued.

        As of June 30, 2003, the Company has a balance of $5.2 million accrued, as $0.3 million of the charge related to assets had been written off, $1.2 million of costs were paid, and $1.0 million of expense was reversed during the six months ended June 30, 2003.

NOTE 8 EQUITY INVESTMENT IN VUE

        IAC beneficially owns 5.44% of the partnership common equity of VUE, plus certain preferred interests. This common interest is accounted for using the equity method. Due to the significance of the results of VUE in relation to IAC's results, summary financial information for VUE is presented below. The investment was acquired on May 7, 2002.

        During the first quarter of 2003, IAC received the audited financial statements of VUE for the year ended December 31, 2002, which disclosed that VUE recorded an impairment charge for goodwill and intangible assets and other long-lived assets of $4.5 billion in the period May 7, 2002 to December 31, 2002 based upon VUE management's review of the estimated fair value of VUE as of December 31, 2002. Because of delays in VUE's financial reporting, IAC records its 5.44% proportionate share of the results of VUE on a one-quarter lag. The charge taken by IAC was approximately $245 million, before a tax benefit of $96 million. In the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded pre-tax income of $4.3 million related to its equity in the income of VUE for the period from January 1, 2003 to March 31, 2003.

        Summarized balances of the partnership are as follows:

 
  As of March 31, 2003

October 1, 2002

NOTE 9 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

        On April 7, 2003 the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $250 million related to a portion of its fixed rate 7% Senior Notes due in 2013 (the "Notes"). The interest rate swap allows IAC to receive fixed rate receipts in exchange for making floating rate payments based on London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, which effectively changes our interest rate exposure on a portion of the Notes. The fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2003 was a gain of $12.3 million which is recorded as an other long term asset on the balance sheet with an equivalent amount reflected as a change in the carrying value of the Notes.

        On April 29, 2003, one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries entered into a foreign exchange forward contract with a notional amount of $38.6 million which was used to hedge against the change in value of a liability denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. Transaction gains and losses related to the contract and liability are recognized each period in our statement of operations and are offsetting. The fair value of this foreign exchange forward contract at June 30, 2003 was an unrealized loss of $1.5 million and is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the balance sheet.

See Note 3 for further discussion.

Discontinued Operations

        In the second quarter of 2003, certain of the Company's businesses, consisting of USA Electronic Commerce Solutions ("ECS"), Styleclick, Inc. and Avaltus, Inc., a subsidiary of PRC, ceased operations. Accordingly, the results of operations and statement of position of these businesses are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. In addition, through May 7, 2002, the Company's results also included the USA Entertainment Group, consisting of USA Cable, including USA Network and Sci Fi Channel and Emerging Networks TRIO, Newsworld International and Crime; Studios USA, which produces and distributes television programming; and USA Films, which produces and distributes films. The USA Entertainment Group was contributed to a joint venture with Vivendi Universal, S.A. ("Vivendi") on May 7, 2002 (the "VUE Transaction"). As a result, the results of operations and

28



statement of position of USA Entertainment are presented as a discontinued operation through May 7, 2002. The net gain on contribution of the USA Entertainment Group to VUE of the USA Entertainment Group and USAB for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was $2.4 billion. The net income (loss) related to these discontinued businesses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $38.3 million and ($17.7 million), respectively, net of tax, and the net income (loss) from these discontinued businesses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $33.6 million and ($0.1 million), respectively, net of tax. The 2003 results were due primarily to a tax benefit realized for the discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2003.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

        In July 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted this statement and the application of SFAS 146 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees

        In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45 (FIN 45), Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 will significantly change current practice in the accounting for and disclosure of guarantees. Under FIN 45, guarantees are broadly defined to include, among others, product warranties, indemnification provisions, and standby letters of credit. Guarantees meeting the characteristics described in FIN 45, which are not included in a long list of exceptions, are required to be initially recorded at fair value, which is different from the general current practice of recording a liability only when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, as those terms are defined in SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies. FIN 45 also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for virtually all guarantees even when the likelihood of the guarantor's having to make payments under the guarantee is remote. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 and the application of FIN 45 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Accounting by Reseller for Cash Consideration Received From a Vendor

        In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue 1 of Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Reseller for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. This consensus provides guidance on the circumstances under which cash consideration received from a vendor by a reseller should be considered: (a) an adjustment of the prices of the vendor's products or services and, therefore, characterized as a reduction of cost of sales when recognized in the reseller's income statement, (b) an adjustment to a cost incurred by the reseller and, therefore, characterized as a reduction of that cost when recognized in the reseller's income statement, or (c) a payment for assets or services delivered to the vendor and, therefore, characterized as revenue when recognized in the reseller's income statement. The consensus is effective for arrangements entered into after December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2003, we have adopted this consensus and the application of EITF Issue No. 02-16 has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

29



Stock-Based Compensation

        In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure" which amends FASB Statement No. 123. This statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 123. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for fiscal year ending after December 15, 2002. The Company will provide expense for stock based compensation on a prospective basis, and will continue to provide pro forma information in the notes to financial statements to provide the results as if SFAS 123 had been adopted in previous years. The Company intends to issue restricted stock units that will vest in future periods instead of stock options, although the Company's public subsidiaries may issue some employee stock options in 2003 as they complete the transition to 100% restricted stock. For restricted stock units issued, the accounting charge is measured at the grant date and amortized ratably as non-cash compensation over the vesting term.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

        In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 will significantly change current practice in the accounting for and disclosure of variable interest entities. Under FIN 46, a business enterprise that has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity would include the variable interest entity's assets, liabilities and results of operations in their consolidated financial statements. This Interpretation is different from the general current practice of consolidating only those entities in which an enterprise has a controlling voting interest. The requirements of FIN 46 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2003 for variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003 and immediately for all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. We are currently assessing the impact of the provisions of FIN 46 and we believe that the application of FIN 46 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

OPERATING INCOME BEFORE AMORTIZATION

        IAC reports Operating Income before Amortization that is a supplemental measure to GAAP. This measure, among other things, is a primary metric by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. Management believes that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We provide and encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures, which we discuss below.

        Operating Income before Amortization is defined as operating income plus (1) amortization of non-cash distribution, marketing and compensation expense, (2) amortization of other intangibles, (3) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions and (4) one-time items. Operating Income before Amortization is presented here as a management tool and as a valuation methodology. Operating Income before Amortization does not purport to represent cash provided by operating activities. Operating Income before Amortization should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Operating Income before Amortization may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002

Travel Services

        Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $274.3 million, or 72.4%, to $653.4 million from $379.1 million in 2002, and Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $44.5 million, or 100.7%, to $88.7 million from $44.2 million in 2002. Operating Income before Amortization increased by $63.3 million, or 91.5%, to $132.5 million from $69.2 million. The growth in 2003 was primarily driven by the strong results at Expedia and Hotels.com and the inclusion of Interval results in 2003. Expedia's net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $104.8 million, or 73.4%, to $247.5 million from $142.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 primarily due to higher revenue per airline ticket and an increase in merchant hotel room nights stayed. Expedia's hotel business increased due to the growth in the worldwide merchant hotel business, which has been aided by Expedia's strong packages business; fast-growing international business; and the expansion and acceptance of their WWTE product. Total hotel room nights stayed in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $2.0 million or 77% to $4.6 million from $2.6 million in 2002. In addition, agency revenue, which is primarily derived from the sale of stand-alone and package airline tickets, rose 57% in the second quarter of 2003 to $86.2 million on a 46% increase in agency gross bookings compared to the second quarter of 2002. Hotels.com net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $108.0 million, or 47.0%, to $337.7 million from $229.7 million in 2002 due to an increase in room nights stayed. The increase in net revenues was primarily attributable to the growth of the new website and brand, hotels.com, and the growth in travel and lodging bookings through the Internet, as well as the slight increase in the average daily room rate during the three months ended June 30, 2003. Revenue derived from the hotels.com website accounted for 41% of its cash bookings in the second quarter of 2003. Revenues derived through Hotels.com's agreement with Travelocity, its largest affiliate, accounted for approximately 13.8% of total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 19.0% of total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2002. Interval, which was acquired in September 2002 and thus was not included in the prior period, contributed 20% to Travel Services revenue dollar growth in the quarter. International revenue for Travel Services grew 101% to $89.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $44.4 million in 2002, of which $4.3 million of the increase related to favorable exchange rates.

        Operating Income before Amortization excludes non-cash amortization of intangibles of $19.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 and $15.0 million in the second quarter of 2002, non cash compensation of $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2003 and $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2002, non-cash distribution and marketing expense of $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 and $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2002 related to the amortization of stock-based warrants issued to affiliates in consideration of exclusive affiliate distribution and marketing agreements and non-cash distribution and marketing expenses of $3.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, related to cross promotion advertising by Universal TV (formerly USA Cable). The advertising provided has been secured from IAC, which in turn has secured the non-cash advertising pursuant to an agreement with Universal TV related to the VUE transaction. Sufficient advertising has been secured to satisfy existing obligations. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2003, Operating Income before Amortization excludes $8.4 million of one-time merger costs related to the Hotels.com and Expedia mergers.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $573.2 million, or 91.7%, to $1.2 billion from $625.3 million in 2002, and operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $82.7 million, or 109%, to $158.6 million from $75.9 million in 2002. Operating Income before Amortization increased by $111.4 million, or 89.3%, to $236.2 million from $124.8 million. These results are primarily due to the same factors discussed above. Operating Income before Amortization excludes non-cash amortization of intangibles of $39.1 million in the first half of 2003 and

32



$22.2 million in the first half of 2002, non-cash compensation of $10.5 million in the first half of 2003 and $3.1 million in the first half of 2002, non-cash distribution and marketing expense of $11.4 million in the first half of 2003 and $9.2 million in the first half of 2002 related to the amortization of stock-based warrants issued to affiliates in consideration of exclusive affiliate distribution and marketing agreements and non-cash distribution and marketing expenses of $6.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively, related to cross promotion advertising by Universal TV (formerly USA Cable). In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2003, Operating Income before Amortization excludes $10.4 million of one-time merger costs related to the Hotels.com merger that was completed on June 23, 2003 and the Expedia merger that was completed on August 8, 2003.

        Some states and localities impose a transient occupancy or accommodation tax, or a form of sales tax, on the use or occupancy of hotel accommodations. Hotels generally collect and remit these taxes to the various tax authorities. Consistent with this practice, when a customer books a room through one of the Company's travel services, the hotel charges taxes based on the room rate paid to the hotel and the Company recovers such amount from the customer. The Company does not collect or remit taxes on the portion of the customer payment it retains, and a limited number of jurisdictions have questioned the Company's practice in this regard. While the applicable tax provisions vary among the jurisdictions, the Company believes it generally has sound arguments as to why it is not required to collect and remit such taxes. The Company is engaged in discussions with tax authorities in various jurisdictions to resolve this issue, but the ultimate resolution in any particular jurisdiction cannot be determined at this time. The amount of any liability to the Company on account of the issue will depend on a number of factors, including without limitation, the number of jurisdictions that ultimately assert a claim and that either prevail in assessing such additional tax or negotiate a settlement. The Company has established a reserve of less than $10 million, consistent with applicable accounting principles and in light of all current facts and circumstances, for potential payment with respect to prior periods.

HSN U.S.

        Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $29.1 million, or 7.7%, to $404.4 million from $375.3 million in 2002 primarily due to an increase in total units shipped domestically and a decrease in the on-air return rate in the three months ended June 30, 2003, as well as increased sales at HSN.com of 34% over the prior period which was achieved in part through a 29% increase in unique customers from the prior year. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, total units shipped domestically increased to 9.9 million units compared to 9.5 million units in 2002, while the on-air return rate decreased slightly to 18.3% from 18.7% in 2002. Operating income decreased by $3.1 million, or 8.7%, to $32.6 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $35.7 million in the second quarter of 2002 due primarily to the increase in amortization of intangibles of $12.1 million in 2003 due to the step-up in basis of HSN assets. Operating Income before Amortization increased by $8.9 million, or 24.9%, to $44.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $35.8 million in the second quarter of 2002. HSN was able to grow Operating Income before Amortization by increasing gross margins slightly to 38.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 38.4% in 2002, as the average price point for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased to $45.15, compared with $43.38 in 2002. In addition, the number of total households reached increased 3% to 79.2 million at June 30, 2003 compared with 77.1 million at June 30, 2002.

        Operating Income before Amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 excludes amortization of intangibles of $12.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The large increase in amortization of intangibles in 2003 is due to the step-up in basis of HSN assets in 2002.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $48.5 million, or 6.3%, to $819.3 million from $770.8 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $11.5 million, or 16.8%, to $79.8 million in the first half of 2003 from $68.3 million in the second half of 2002 primarily due to the same factors discussed above. Operating income decreased by $12.5 million, or 18.4%, to $55.5 million in the first half of 2003 from $68.0 million in the first half of

33



2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, Operating Income before Amortization excludes amortization of intangibles of $24.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

HSN International

        HSN International consists primarily of HSE-Germany and EUVÍA, in which IAC owns 48.6%. HSN-Espanol, which operated a Spanish language electronic retailing operation serving customers primarily in the United States and Mexico, was shut-down in the second quarter of 2002. Revenue increased $51.9 million, or 73.0%, to $122.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $70.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002. The increase results from the consolidation of EUVÍA as of the third quarter of 2002, which resulted in increased revenue of $34.9 million, and an increase in revenue of HSE-Germany of $21.0 million, or 31.5%, to $87.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $66.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002, offset partially by decreased sales of HSN-Espanol of $4.2 million. Net revenues for HSE-Germany increased due in part to favorable exchange rates compared to the prior year and lower return rates in the second quarter of 2003 compared with the second quarter of 2002 (note that the increase in sales in local currency was 6%). Operating income increased by $30.4 million to $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2003 from a loss of $23.8 million in the second quarter of 2002 due primarily to $17.8 million of restructuring and other charges recognized in 2002 related to the shut-down of HSN Espanol and the inclusion of Euvia in 2003 results, which contributed $6.3 million of the dollar growth of operating income. Operating Income before Amortization increased $30.6 million, to income of $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2003 from a loss of $23.8 million in second quarter of 2002. Operating Income before Amortization of HSE-Germany increased $3.8 million, to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2003 from a loss of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2002 primarily due to increased gross profit percentages of 35.2% compared with 32.9% in the prior period. EUVÍA had Operating Income before Amortization of $6.3 million in the second quarter of 2003 and the 2003 results were also favorably impacted by shut down of HSN Espanol which had an Operating Income before Amortization loss of $2.7 million in 2002. Operating Income before Amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2003 excludes amortization of intangibles of $0.3 million related to HSE-Germany.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $102.2 million, or 75.2%, to $238.0 million from $135.8 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $51.1 million, or 174.2%, to $21.8 million in the first half of 2003 from a loss of $29.3 million in the second half of 2002 primarily due to the same factors discussed above. Operating income increased by $50.4 million, or 171.8%, to $21.1 million in the first half of 2003 from a loss of $29.3 million in the first half of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, Operating Income before Amortization excludes amortization of intangibles of $0.7 million.

Ticketing Operations

        Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $12.1 million, or 6.9%, to $187.5 million from $175.4 million in 2002 primarily due to an increase in the average revenue per ticket, partially offset by a slight decrease in the number of tickets sold. The slight decrease in the number of tickets sold is primarily due to fewer concerts going on sale in the U.S. The war with Iraq had caused a shift of summer concert ticket on-sales to the first quarter, contributing to a 4% decline in second quarter domestic ticket sales. International ticket sales were positively impacted by the acquisition of Ticketmaster-Netherlands in June 2002 and Ticketmaster-Denmark in November 2002. Operating income decreased by $3.5 million, or 11.0%, to $28.2 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $31.7 million in the second quarter of 2002 due primarily to the increase in amortization of intangibles in 2003 from the step-up in basis of assets that resulted in connection with the Ticketmaster merger in January 2003. Higher variable costs including higher client commissions, credit card fees and costs related to ticketing services for the 2004 Olympic games, partly offset by the resolution of $2.5 million in tax contingencies, also contributed to the decrease in operating income. Operating

34



Income before Amortization increased by $1.4 million, or 4.3%, to $36.1 million from $34.7 million due to the acquisition of Ticketmaster-Netherlands and Ticketmaster-Denmark. The total number of tickets sold decreased by less than 1% to 24.1 million tickets sold in the second quarter of 2003 compared to 24.3 million tickets sold in second quarter of 2002 due to the shift in sales described above. Tickets sold online accounted for 51% of the tickets sold in the second quarter of 2003 compared to 43% in the second quarter of 2002.

        Operating Income before Amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 excludes amortization of intangibles of $7.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively, non-cash distribution and marketing expense of $0.2 million in both the 2003 and 2002 periods and non-cash compensation of $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2002. Non-cash distribution and marketing refers to barter arrangements for distribution secured from third parties, whereby advertising is provided by Ticketmaster to a third party in return for distribution over the third party's network. The advertising provided has been secured from IAC, which in turn has secured the non-cash advertising pursuant to an agreement with Universal TV (formerly USA Cable) related to the VUE Transaction. Sufficient advertising has been secured to satisfy existing obligations.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $53.8 million, or 16.4%, to $382.6 million from $328.8 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $18.9 million, or 32.1%, to $77.6 million in the first half of 2003 from $58.7 million in the first half of 2002 primarily due to an increase in the average revenue per ticket and an increase in the number of tickets sold in the first half of 2003. The increase in tickets sold primarily reflects Ticketing's successful European growth efforts with the acquisitions of Ticketmaster-Netherlands and Ticketmaster-Denmark. Operating income increased by $9.3 million, or 17.4%, to $62.6 million in the first half of 2003 from $53.3 million in the first half of 2002 due to the same factors noted above. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, Operating Income before Amortization excludes amortization of intangibles of $14.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively, non-cash distribution and marketing expense of $0.5 million in both the 2003 and 2002 periods and non-cash compensation of $0.2 million in the second half of 2002. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2003, Operating Income before Amortization excludes $0.1 million of one-time merger costs related to the Ticketmaster merger which was completed in January 2003.

Precision Response

        Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $2.3 million, or 3.2%, to $69.5 million from $71.8 million in 2002 and Operating income increased by $31.0 million to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 from a loss of $29.3 million in the second quarter of 2002. Operating Income before Amortization increased by $8.7 million to income of $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from a loss of $7.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002. Revenue in the second quarter of 2003 and 2002 includes $3.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively, for services provided to other IAC businesses. The increase in Operating Income before Amortization is primarily attributable to a decrease in fixed costs and depreciation expense in the second quarter of 2003 due to the closure of certain call centers in 2002 which resulted in restructuring charge of $9.3 million recognized in the second quarter of 2002. The increase in operating income in the second quarter of 2003 is due primarily to the goodwill impairment charge of $22.2 million recognized in the 2002 second quarter and the $9.3 million restructuring charge recognized in the second quarter of 2002. For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2002, Operating Income before Amortization excludes the PRC goodwill impairment charge of $22.2 million noted above which related to the contingent purchase consideration recorded in the second quarter of 2002 in connection with the purchase of Access Direct.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $0.7 million, or 0.5%, to $140.3 million from $141.0 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $12.7 million to income of $3.6 million in the first half of 2003 from a loss of $9.1 million in the second

35



half of 2002 primarily due to the same factors discussed above. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $34.9 million, or 111%, to $3.6 million from a loss of $31.3 million in 2002. Revenue in the first half of 2003 and 2002 includes $7.0 million and $5.3 million, respectively, for services provided to other IAC businesses.

        In the second quarter of 2003 the Company ceased operations of Avaltus, Inc., a subsidiary of PRC. Accordingly, the results of operations and statement of position of Avaltus are presented as discontinued operations for the periods presented.

Personals

        Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $18.5 million, or 62.5%, to $48.2 million from $29.7 million in 2002 primarily due to increased subscription revenue, as the number of personals subscriptions increased 42% in the second quarter of 2003 compared to the second quarter of 2002. Subscriber growth came through all channels including partnerships, direct domains and affiliates. The growth was positively impacted, in part, by the acquisition of uDate in April 2003, which contributed $6.2 million in revenues in the second quarter of 2003, although it was not profitable. As expected, excluding uDate, paid member count did not increase sequentially in the second quarter of 2003, as the second quarter is seasonally weak for the personals business and the Company did not market aggressively in advance of the relaunch of its new website. The Company launched Match 5.0 on June 12, 2003, streamlining the user experience and adding new valuable communication features, and expects to increase its paid member count in the second half of the year, based on member responses to the website to date. Operating income increased by $0.9 million, or 14.0%, to $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $2.5 million, or 32.4%, to $10.2 million for the second quarter of 2003 from $7.7 million in the second quarter of 2002. The increase in Operating Income before Amortization is primarily attributable to the revenue growth noted above, partially offset by higher sales and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2003 of $7.5 million, an 86% increase over the prior year period as the Company continues to aggressively grow consumer brand recognition in 2003. The increase in operating income is due primarily to factors noted above and partially offset by $1.6 million of amortization of intangibles in the second quarter of 2003 related to the step-up in basis from the Ticketmaster merger. Operating Income before Amortization excludes the amortization of intangibles of $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2003 noted above and excludes non-cash distribution and marketing of $1.0 million in 2003 and 2002, which refers to barter arrangements for distribution secured from third parties, whereby advertising is provided by Match to a third party in return for distribution over the third party's network. The advertising provided has been secured from IAC, which in turn has secured the non-cash advertising pursuant to an agreement with Universal TV (formerly USA Cable). Sufficient advertising has been secured to satisfy existing obligations.

        Net revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $34.0 million, or 61.7%, to $89.1 million from $55.1 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization decreased by $0.4 million, or 3.2%, to $12.9 million in the first half of 2003 from $13.3 million in the second half of 2002 primarily due to the factors noted above. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $1.4 million, or 14.1%, to $8.2 million from $9.6 million in 2002 primarily due to $2.7 million of amortization of intangibles in the first half of 2003 related to the step-up in basis from the Ticketmaster merger. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, Operating Income before Amortization excludes amortization of intangibles of $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 related to the step-up in basis from the Ticketmaster merger and excludes non-cash distribution and marketing of $2.0 million and $3.7 million, respectively.

Local Services

        Local services consists primarily of Citysearch, including Evite, and Entertainment Publications. Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $37.6 million to $45.2 million

36



compared to $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 due primarily to the acquisition of Entertainment Publications on March 25, 2003, which generated revenue of $36.9 million. Excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, revenues increased by 9.7%. Citysearch has transitioned its revenue base to advertising products with better profit potential for the Company, launching a pay-for-performance model in the second quarter of 2003. Operating losses, excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, decreased $3.6 million, or 18.6%, to a loss of $15.9 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared with a loss of $19.5 million in the second quarter of 2002 due primarily to initiatives to reduce operating costs. Operating Income before Amortization increased by $4.0 million, to a loss of $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 from a loss of $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2002 due to the factors noted above. Entertainment Publications contributed $36.9 million of revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2003 and its Operating Income before Amortization was a loss of $1.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. Entertainment Publications business is highly seasonal and generates the majority of its revenue and profitability in the fourth quarter. Operating Income before Amortization, excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, excludes $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2003 and $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2002 in amortization of intangibles, $0.5 million in both the second quarters of 2003 and 2002 of non-cash distribution and marketing expense related to advertising provided by Universal TV (formerly USA Cable) and $0.8 million of non-cash compensation in the second quarter of 2002.

        Excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $0.6 million to $15.5 million compared to $14.9 million in 2002 and Operating Income before Amortization increased by $8.5 million, to a loss of $9.4 million in the first half of 2003 from a loss of $17.9 million in the first half of 2002 due to the factors noted above. Operating losses, excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, decreased $7.6 million, or 18.1%, to a loss of $34.4 million in the first half of 2003 compared with a loss of $42.0 million in the first half of 2002 due primarily to the factors noted above. Operating Income before Amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, excluding the results of Entertainment Publications, excludes amortization of intangibles $23.9 million and $23.1 million, respectively, non-cash distribution and marketing expenses of $1.0 million in both the 2003 and 2002 periods and non-cash compensation of $4.8 million in 2002.

Interactive Development

        The Company's Interactive Development segment had no revenues for the quarters ended June 30, 2003 or 2002 but had an operating loss of $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared with a loss of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2002. In addition, Operating Income before Amortization was a loss of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared with a loss of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2002. The costs incurred by this segment relate to IAC's potential US travel network and emerging electronic retailing operations.

Depreciation, Amortization and Goodwill Impairment

        Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $1.1 million to $41.7 million from $40.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 due primarily to the acquisition of Entertainment Publications in March 2003 and the acquisition of Interval in September 2002. Amortization of intangibles increased $25.7 million due to the increases in amortization of intangibles resulting primarily from the step-up in basis of HSN in 2002 and the step-up basis of Ticketmaster and Match.com as a result of the Ticketmaster merger on January 17, 2003. Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $6.1 million to $83.9 million from $77.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 due primarily to the Expedia transaction in February 2002, the acquisition of Entertainment Publications in March 2003 and the acquisition of Interval in September 2002. Amortization of intangibles for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $56.7 million due to the increases in amortization of intangibles resulting

37



primarily from the 2002 Expedia transaction, the step-up in basis of HSN, Ticketmaster and Match.com.

        In the second quarter of 2002, the Company recorded an impairment in operating income related to PRC goodwill of $22.2 million, which was primarily related to a contingent purchase price adjustment booked in the three months ended June 30, 2002. As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted FAS 141/142, and recorded in the first quarter of 2002 a write-down before tax and minority interest to PRC goodwill of $384 million, as well as a write-down before tax and minority interest to Citysearch of $115 million as a cumulative effect adjustment. The write-offs were determined by comparing the fair value of the businesses, using discounted cash flow analysis, and the implied value of goodwill and intangibles with the carrying amounts on the balance sheet. The write-offs primarily resulted from a decline in revenues for PRC due to the overall decline in the market for teleservicing and for Citysearch due to restructuring of the business and a new model that reduced short term operating results.

Other Income (Expense)

        Net interest income in the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $22.2 million compared to $18.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in interest income is due primarily to amounts earned on proceeds from the VUE Transaction in May 2002, including (i) $9.2 million of PIK interest on the Series A Preferred in the second quarter of 2003 compared with $5.6 million in the 2002 second quarter, (ii) $15.9 million of cash interest on the Series B Preferred in the second quarter of 2003 compared with $9.3 million in the 2002 second quarter, and (iii) interest earned on the $1.6 billion of cash proceeds, partially offset by an net increase in interest expense of $10.2 million which represents an increase of $11.4 million related to the Company's $750 million Senior Notes issued in December 2002, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in interest on the Company's $500 million Senior Notes issued in 1998 of which $92.2 million were repurchased through July 31, 2003.

        Net interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $37.7 million compared to $13.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in interest income is due primarily to amounts earned on proceeds from the VUE Transaction in May 2002, including (i) $18.3 million of PIK interest on the Series A Preferred in the first half of 2003 compared with $5.6 million the in 2002 second half, (ii) $31.9 million of cash interest on the Series B Preferred in the second half of 2003 compared with $9.3 million the in 2002 second half, and (iii) interest earned on the $1.6 billion of cash proceeds, partially offset by a net increase in interest expense of $22.4 million which represents an increase of $24.6 million related to the Company's $750 million Senior Notes issued in December 2002, partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in interest on the Company's $500 million Senior Notes issued in 1998 of which $92.2 million were repurchased throughout 2003.

        In the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company realized pre-tax income of $4.3 million and a loss of $239.0 million, respectively, on equity in the income (losses) from its investment in Vivendi Universal Entertainment LLLP ("VUE"), a joint venture between the Company and Vivendi Universal, S.A. ("Vivendi") acquired May 7, 2002. During the first quarter of 2003, IAC received the audited financial statements of VUE for the year ended December 31, 2002, which disclosed that VUE recorded an impairment charge for goodwill and intangible assets and other long-lived assets of $4.5 billion in the period May 7, 2002 to December 31, 2002 based upon VUE management's review of the estimated fair value of VUE as of December 31, 2002. Because of delays in VUE's financial reporting, IAC records its 5.44% proportionate share of the results of VUE on a one-quarter lag. The charge taken by IAC in the first quarter of 2003 was approximately $245 million, before of a tax benefit of $96 million.

        In the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company realized pre-tax losses of $0.2 million and $103.7 million, respectively, on equity losses in unconsolidated subsidiaries and other

38



expenses and in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company realized pre-tax losses of $2.1 million and $115.9 million, respectively, on equity losses in unconsolidated subsidiaries and other expenses. The 2002 losses resulted primarily from HOT Networks, which operates electronic retailing operations in Europe, before it was consolidated and was impacted primarily by charges of $88.3 million, relating primarily to the impact of HOT Networks closing its Belgium and UK operations in the three months ended June 30, 2002 as well as due to a write-down of HSN's investment in China based on operating performance.

Income Taxes

        The effective tax rate associated with IAC's income tax benefit recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 was higher than the statutory rate due to the impact of the reduction of valuation allowances and state income taxes. IAC has reversed the valuation allowance related to the Ticketmaster deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized in the foreseeable future. Both Styleclick and Avaltus have been written off and a corresponding tax benefit has been reported in discontinued operations. A state income tax benefit has been recorded for both the reversal of the valuation allowance and the write-off of Avaltus.

Minority Interest

        Minority interest primarily represents Universal's and Liberty's ownership interest in USANi LLC through May 7, 2002, Liberty's ownership interest in Holdco through June 27, 2002, the public's ownership in TMCS until January 31, 2001, the public's ownership in Ticketmaster from January 31, 2001 through January 17, 2003, the public's ownership interest in Hotels.com from February 25, 2000 through June 23, 2003, the public's ownership interest in Styleclick since July 27, 2000, the partners ownership interest in HSE-Germany since its consolidation as of January 1, 2000, the public's ownership in Expedia since February 4, 2002 and certain minority ownerships in EUVÍA and Interval.

Discontinued Operations

        During the second quarter of 2003, certain of the Company's businesses, consisting of USA Electronic Commerce Solutions ("ECS"), Styleclick, Inc. and Avaltus, Inc., ceased operations. Accordingly, these businesses are presented as discontinued operations for the applicable periods presented. In addition, the USA Entertainment Group, which was contributed to VUE on May 7, 2002, is presented as discontinued operations for 2002. The net gain on contribution of the USA Entertainment Group to VUE for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 was $2.4 billion. The net income (loss) related to these discontinued businesses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $38.3 million and ($17.7 million), respectively, net of tax, and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $33.6 million and ($0.1 million), respectively, net of tax. The 2003 results were due primarily to a tax benefit realized for the discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2003.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Net cash provided by operating activities was $938.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $438.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These cash proceeds and available cash were used to pay for acquisition and deal costs, net of acquired cash, of $394.2 million, including $382.0 million, less $15.9 million in cash acquired, for the acquisition of Entertainment Publications, to purchase marketable securities of $973.7 million and to make capital expenditures of $87.0 million. Ticketmaster net cash collected on behalf of clients resulted in increased cash from operations of $23.7 million and $29.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

        Expedia's and Hotels.com's working capital cash flows from their merchant hotel business models contributed significantly to the increase in cash provided by operating activities. In the merchant business, Expedia and Hotels.com receive cash from customers on hotel and air bookings before the stay or flight has occurred. These amounts are classified on our balance sheet as deferred revenue. The payment to the suppliers related to these bookings is not made until approximately one week after booking for air travel and, for all other merchant bookings, after the customer's use and subsequent billing from the supplier. Therefore, especially for the hotel business, which is the majority of our merchant bookings, there is a significant period of time from the receipt of the cash from the customers to the payment to the suppliers. For the six-months ended June 30, 2003, Expedia deferred merchant bookings and Hotels.com deferred revenue has contributed $238 million to our positive cash flow. There is a seasonal element to cash flow related to merchant bookings, as the first quarter has traditionally been a quarter where hotel bookings significantly exceed stays, resulting in much higher cash flow related to working capital. In the other quarters, the difference between bookings and stays tends to be more even. In addition to the timing related increases noted above at Expedia and Hotels.com, cash provided by operating activities benefited from timing related increases in working capital at HSN U.S.

        As of June 30, 2003, the Company has $3.1 billion of cash on hand and $1.8 billion of marketable securities on hand, including $133.9 million in funds representing amounts equal to the face value of tickets sold by Ticketmaster on behalf of its clients.

        On March 19, 2003, IAC announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 30 million shares of IAC common stock. IAC may purchase shares over an indefinite period of time, on the open market or through private transactions, depending on market conditions, share price and other factors. The amount and timing of purchases, if any, will depend on market conditions and other factors, including IAC's overall capital structure. Funds for these purchases will come from cash on hand. Through June 30, 2003, IAC had purchased 2.3 million shares for aggregate consideration of $78.6 million. Furthermore, not related to the IAC authorization, during the six months ended June 30, 2003, Hotels.com repurchased approximately 1.55 million shares of its Class A common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $73.5 million and Expedia repurchased approximately 0.8 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate cost of $25.0 million.

        In relation to the 2002 Expedia transaction, the Company issued approximately 13.1 million preferred shares bearing interest at 1.99% per annum, payable quarterly in cash or stock at IAC's option. If IAC elects to pay cash, the amount is approximately $13.1 million on an annual basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company paid cash dividends of $6.8 million in cash. The next dividend is due August 15, 2003, and IAC expects to pay approximately $3.3 million in cash. IAC's wholly-owned subsidiaries have no material restrictions on their ability to transfer amounts to fund IAC's operations.

        During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company received proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion related to the sale of 46.9 million shares of common stock to Liberty, pursuant to Liberty's preemptive rights in relation to the Ticketmaster merger, the uDate acquisition, the Expedia and Hotels.com mergers and in connection with IAC option exercises between May 2, 2003 and June 3,

40



2003. Liberty did not exercise its preemptive rights with respect to the LendingTree transaction. In addition, subsequent to June 30, 2003, the Company received proceeds of approximately $62.2 million related to the sale of 1.8 million shares of common stock to Liberty, pursuant to Liberty's preemptive rights.

        On June 30, 2003 pursuant to the exercise, as Barry Diller's designee, of a right of first refusal, the Company purchased from Vivendi Universal warrants to acquire 28.2 million shares of IAC Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $407 million.

        Through June 30, 2003 the Company repurchased $33.2 million principal amount of its 6.75% Senior Notes due November 15, 2005 for an aggregate purchase price of $35.8 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2003 the Company repurchased an additional $59.0 million principal amount of its 6.75% Senior Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $65.6 million.

        IAC anticipates that it will need to invest working capital towards the development and expansion of its overall operations. The Company may make a significant number of acquisitions, which could result in the reduction of its cash balance or the incurrence of debt. Furthermore, future capital expenditures may be higher than current amounts over the next several years.

        The uncertainty caused by the current economic, political and transportation climates may affect future demand for our products and services. As previously discussed, a significant amount of operating cash flow is from increased deferred merchant bookings and the period between receipt of cash from the customer and decrease in operating cash flow, or negative operating cash flows. We believe that our financial situation would enable us to absorb a significant potential downturn in business. As a result, in management's opinion, available cash, internally generated funds and available borrowings will provide sufficient capital resources to meet IAC's foreseeable needs.

Funding Obligations of HOT Networks for EUVÍA

        HOT Networks holds a 48.6% limited partnership interest in EUVÍA, a German limited partnership, as well as pooling arrangements that allow for control of EUVÍA. EUVÍA, through certain subsidiaries, operates two businesses, "Neun Live TV," a game show oriented TV channel, and a travel oriented shopping TV channel under the brand name "Sonnenklar." In connection with the partnership formed to operate these businesses, HOT Networks has undertaken to fund 100% of the cash requirements and operating losses up to Euro 179 million, with the funding obligations terminating if EUVÍA remains profitable for two consecutive fiscal years. Through June 30, 2003, HOT Networks funded EUVÍA with approximately Euro 59.1 million. HOT Networks expects that no additional funding will be required prior to EUVÍA achieving profitability for two consecutive fiscal years. In the event EUVÍA's current business plan is revised to require additional funding to achieve profitability for two consecutive years, HOT Networks may have additional contractual rights exercisable on or after June 30, 2003 that reduce its ongoing funding obligations below Euro 179 million assuming it has met certain funding thresholds as of June 30, 2003. Although it is not expected that these additional contractual rights will prove relevant in light of EUVÍA's current business plan, HOT Networks continues to actively monitor EUVÍA's funding requirements.

Seasonality

        IAC's businesses are subject to the effects of seasonality.

        IAC believes seasonality impacts its Electronic Retailing segment but not to the same extent it impacts the retail industry in general.

        Ticketing operations revenues are impacted by fluctuations in the availability of events for sale to the public, which vary depending upon scheduling by the client. The second quarter of the year generally experiences the most ticket on-sales for events, although the Company believes that 2003 may have been impacted due to the war, as more on-sales may have taken place in the first quarter.

41



        Hotels.com's and Expedia's revenues are influenced by the seasonal nature of holiday travel in the markets they serve, and have historically peaked in the fall.

        TVTS revenues are influenced by the seasonal nature of package travel, with the first and third quarters generally experiencing the strongest sales and the second and the fourth quarter experiencing weaker sales.

        Interval's revenues from existing members are influenced by the seasonal nature of planned family travel with the first quarter generally experiencing the strongest sales and the fourth quarter generally experiencing weaker sales.

        Entertainment Publications's revenues are significantly seasonal with the majority of the company's revenues and profitability experienced in the fourth quarter, consistent with school fundraising schedules.

IAC'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

        IAC reports Operating Income before Amortization which is a supplemental measure to GAAP. This measure, among other things, is one of the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. We believe that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We provide and encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures, which we discuss below. It may seem that we have more adjusting items in our reconciliations than other companies. This is mainly because, in our short history, our businesses have changed significantly and we have been very acquisitive in nature. We endeavor to be as plain spoken as possible in explaining these adjustments.

Definitions of IAC's Non-GAAP Measures

        Operating Income before Amortization is defined as operating income plus: (1) amortization of non-cash distribution, marketing and compensation expense, (2) amortization of intangibles and goodwill impairment, if applicable, (3) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions and (4) one-time items. See below for explanations of these adjustments.

Pro Forma Results

        We have presented Operating Income before Amortization pro forma for the Expedia merger which was completed February 4, 2002 as if this transaction had been completed as of January 1, 2002. IAC has changed significantly in recent years: first transitioning from a media company to an interactive commerce company, then also into an operating company. We believe that the pro forma results provide investors with better comparisons to prior periods, as well as a better view of ongoing operations and what the company will look like after these transactions have been consummated.

        We will only pro forma results if we view a particular transaction as significant in size or transformational in nature. As such, our results are not pro forma for certain smaller transactions such as the acquisitions of TV Travel Group, Interval and EPI. We also do not intend to present the pending LendingTree transaction on a pro forma basis.

One-Time Items

        We only exclude as non-recurring items those that are truly one-time in nature and non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, and have not occurred in the past two years or are not expected to recur in the next two years, per recently released SEC rules. We have revised our 2002 non-GAAP measures to

42



include certain items that were previously excluded as a result of the new SEC guidance. Actual results include one-time items.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From Our Non-GAAP Measures

        Amortization of non-cash compensation expense consists of restricted stock and options expense, which relates mostly to unvested options assumed by IAC in the Ticketmaster, Hotels.com and pending Expedia mergers. We view this expense as part of transaction costs, which are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding. Non-cash compensation also includes the expense associated with IAC's RSU program. We view the true cost of these RSUs as the dilution to our share base, and as such all RSUs are included in our shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS purposes.

        Amortization of non-cash distribution and marketing expense consists mainly of Hotels.com performance warrants issued to obtain distribution and non-cash advertising secured from Universal Television as part of the Vivendi transaction. The Hotels.com warrants were principally issued as part of its initial public offering, and we do not anticipate replicating these arrangements. The warrants are in the money and, to the extent the performance criteria are met, are included in our shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS purposes. The non-cash advertising from Universal is primarily for the benefit of Expedia, which runs television advertising primarily on the USA and Sci Fi cable channels without any cash cost. We do not expect to replace this non-cash marketing with an equivalent cash expense after it runs out in 2007, nor would IAC incur such amounts absent the advertising received in the Vivendi transaction.

        Amortization of intangibles is a non-cash expense relating primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets of the acquired company, such as supplier contracts and customer relationships, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. While it is likely that we will have significant intangible amortization expense as we continue to acquire companies, we believe that since intangibles represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition, they were part of transaction costs and will not be replaced with cash costs when the intangibles are fully amortized.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

        The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's short-term investment portfolio and issuance of debt. The Company has a prescribed methodology whereby it invests its excess cash in debt instruments of government agencies and high quality corporate issuers. The portfolio is reviewed on a periodic basis and adjusted in the event that the credit rating of a security held in the portfolio has deteriorated.

        At June 30, 2003, the Company's outstanding debt approximated $1.2 billion, substantially all of which is fixed rate obligations. If market rates decline, the Company runs the risk that the related required payments on the fixed rate debt will exceed those based on the current market rate. The Company's objective in managing its exposure to interest rate risk on its long term debt is to maintain within a certain range of debt exposure which is between 20-40% floating rate and 60-80% fixed rate. As such, during the second quarter of 2003 the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $250 million related to a portion of our fixed rate 7% Senior Notes due in 2013 (the "Notes"). The interest rate swap allows us to receive fixed rate receipts in exchange for making floating rate payments based on LIBOR which effectively changes our interest rate exposure on a portion of the Notes. As of June 30, 2003, of the $750 million total notional amount of the Notes, the interest rate is fixed on $500 million with the balance of $250 million remaining at a floating rate of interest based on the spread over 6- month LIBOR. The fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2003 was $12.3 million. If the LIBOR rates were to increase (decrease) by 100 basis points, then the interest payments on the $250 million of variable rate debt would increase (decrease) by $0.6 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2003, the Company entered into an additional interest rate swap agreement whereby we effectively changed our interest rate exposure from fixed-rate to variable-rate on an additional $150 million notional amount.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

        The Company conducts business in certain foreign markets, primarily in the European Union. The Company's primary exposure to foreign currency risk relates to investments in foreign subsidiaries that transact business in a functional currency other than the US Dollar, primarily the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Canadian Dollar. However, the Company intends to reinvest profits from international operations in order to grow the businesses.

        As the Company increases its operations in international markets it becomes increasingly exposed to potentially volatile movements in currency exchange rates. The economic impact of currency exchange rate movements on the Company are often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, could cause the Company to adjust its financing and operating strategies.

        As currency exchange rates change, translation of the income statements of the Company's international businesses into U.S. dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results. Historically, the Company has not hedged translation risks because cash flows from international operations were generally reinvested locally.

        Foreign exchange gains and losses were not material to the Company's earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. However, given the currency fluctuations in 2002 and 2003 and anticipated increases in the Company's operations in international markets, the Company is reviewing its strategy for hedging transaction risks. The Company's objective in managing its foreign exchange risk is to reduce its potential exposure to the changes that exchange rates might have on its earnings, cash flows and financial position.

        During the second quarter of 2003, one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries entered into a foreign exchange forward contract with a notional amount of $38.6 million which was used to hedge against the change in value of a liability denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. Transaction gains and losses related to the contract and liability are recognized each period in our statement of operations and are offsetting. The fair value of this foreign exchange forward contract at June 30, 2003 was an unrealized loss of $1.5 million.

Equity Price Risk

        The Company has a minimal investment in equity securities of publicly traded companies. These investments, as of June 30, 2003, were considered available-for-sale, with the unrealized gain deferred as a component of shareholders' equity. It is not customary for the Company to make significant investments in equity securities as part of its investment strategy.

        The Company has substantial investments in VUE as of June 30, 2003, including preferred interests valued at approximately $2 billion and common interests valued at $767 million. The Company has reviewed the carrying value of these investments, and believes they are reasonable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

        The Company monitors and evaluates on an on-going basis its disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve their overall effectiveness. In the course of this evaluation, the Company modifies and refines its internal processes as conditions warrant.

        As required by Rule 13a-15(b), IAC management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. As required by Rule 13a-15(d), IAC management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the quarter covered by this report.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

        In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, and other claims. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage.

        Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the description of material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary, routine litigation incident to the registrant's business, and advise that proceedings ordinarily need not be described if they primarily involve damage claims for amounts (exclusive of interest and costs) not exceeding 10% of the current assets of the registrant and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In the judgment of management, none of the pending litigation matters which the Company and its subsidiaries are defending, including those described below, involves or is likely to involve amounts of that magnitude. The litigation matters described below involve issues or claims that may be of particular interest to the Company's shareholders, regardless of whether any of these matters may be material to the financial position or operations of the Company based upon the standard set forth in the SEC's rules.

Tax-Related Litigation against Vivendi

        As previously disclosed in certain of the Company's SEC filings, including its filing on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 (the "2002 10-K"), IAC is involved in a tax-related dispute with Vivendi Universal, S.A. ("Vivendi"). On April 15, 2003, IAC commenced an action in the Delaware Chancery Court, captioned USA Interactive and USANi Sub LLC v. Vivendi Universal, S.A., USI Entertainment Inc., and Vivendi Universal Entertainment LLLP, No. CA-20260. This lawsuit arises out of the failure of Vivendi Universal Entertainment LLLP ("VUE"), a limited-liability limited partnership controlled by Vivendi, to pay to IAC and its affiliates, as partners in VUE, certain cash tax distributions due to them over a period of years under the express terms of the partnership agreement that governs VUE.

        The partnership agreement provides that VUE "shall, as soon as practicable after the close of each taxable year, make cash contributions to each Partner in an amount equal to the product of (a) the amount of taxable income allocated to such Partner for such taxable year . . . and (b) the highest aggregate marginal statutory Federal, state, local and foreign income tax rate . . . applicable to any Partner." The partnership agreement also provides that taxable income of VUE is to be allocated to the partners, including IAC and its affiliates, in a specified order, including amounts corresponding to the cash and pay-in-kind distributions on IAC's and its affiliates' preferred interests in VUE, which represent a 5% annual return on those interests (the "Preferred Return"). The actual amount of cash distributions with respect to taxable income on the Preferred Return would depend on several factors, including the amount of VUE's earnings and federal, state, and local income tax rates. Assuming sufficient VUE earnings in each of the next twenty years and a discount rate of 7%, such cash distributions could have a present value to IAC of up to approximately $620 million.

        The complaint in IAC's lawsuit requests the court to declare that VUE is obligated to pay to IAC and its affiliates cash tax distributions on the Preferred Return as they become due under the VUE partnership agreement, and to order VUE to make such payments. On June 30, 2003, the defendants filed an answer denying the material allegations of the complaint and asserting various affirmative defenses, as well as certain counterclaims. The counterclaims request the court to declare that VUE is not obligated under the partnership agreement to pay to IAC and its affiliates cash tax distributions on the Preferred Return or, in the alternative, to reform the partnership agreement—on the grounds of mutual or, in the alternative, unilateral mistake—so that it no longer requires VUE to make such payments. IAC believes that the defendants' counterclaims are meritless. Pretrial discovery in the case has commenced.

Litigation Relating to IAC's Acquisition of Ticketmaster

        As previously disclosed in certain of the Company's SEC filings, including the 2002 10-K, on June 3, 2002, the Company announced that it had delivered to the boards of directors of each of Ticketmaster, Expedia and Hotels.com a letter proposing the acquisition by the Company of the minority interest in each of those subsidiaries that it did not already own. The boards of directors of these subsidiaries each formed a special committee comprised entirely of all of its disinterested directors to review the Company's proposal.

        As previously disclosed by the Company, in the wake of the Company's announcement a number of lawsuits were filed against the Company, the subsidiaries, and the boards of directors of the subsidiaries. With respect to Ticketmaster, a number of actions were filed in the Court of Chancery of the state of Delaware, and an additional action was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The complaints in these actions generally alleged that the proposed exchange ratio for the contemplated stock-for-stock transaction would be unfair to the minority shareholders of Ticketmaster and that entering into the proposed transaction would constitute a breach of fiduciary duty by the defendants. The complaints each sought, among other things, injunctive relief against the consummation of the proposed transaction and damages in an unspecified amount. In July 2002, the actions with respect to Ticketmaster filed in the state of Delaware were consolidated under the caption, In re Ticketmaster Shareholders Litigation, No. 19663-NC (Delaware Court of Chancery). In August 2002, the action with respect to Ticketmaster filed in federal court in California was dismissed, on consent, without prejudice.

        As previously disclosed by the Company, on October 10, 2002, the Company and Ticketmaster announced an agreement under which Ticketmaster would be merged into IAC in a stock-for-stock transaction. On January 17, 2003, IAC completed its acquisition of all of the stock of Ticketmaster.

        On July 16, 2003, the court in the Delaware consolidated action, In re Ticketmaster Shareholders Litigation, issued an order, on consent of the parties, dismissing the action without prejudice.

Litigation Relating to the IAC/Expedia Merger Agreement

        As previously disclosed in certain of the Company's SEC filings, including the 2002 10-K, on March 19, 2003, IAC and Expedia announced that they had entered into an agreement under which IAC would acquire all of the shares of Expedia that it does not currently own in a stock-for-stock transaction. Under the agreement, Expedia shareholders would receive IAC stock in accordance with an exchange ratio representing approximately a 30% premium, based upon the closing prices of IAC and Expedia stock on March 18, 2003. The agreement was approved by Expedia's board of directors following the unanimous recommendation and approval of an independent special committee of the board.

        As previously disclosed by the Company, during the period from March 20 to April 2, 2003, five purported class actions on behalf of Expedia shareholders were filed in King County Superior Court in the state of Washington against Expedia, IAC, and members of the board of directors of Expedia. The complaints in these actions allege, in essence, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Expedia's public shareholders by entering into and/or approving the merger agreement, which allegedly does not reflect the true value of Expedia. The complaints seek to enjoin consummation of the transaction or, in the alternative, to rescind the transaction, as well as damages in an unspecified amount.

        In addition, as previously disclosed by the Company, on March 20, 2003, the plaintiffs in a consolidated action in King County Superior Court in the state of Washington, which had consolidated eight purported class actions on behalf of Expedia shareholders filed against Expedia, IAC, and members of the board of directors of Expedia as a result of IAC's announcement in June 2002 of its intention to enter into an Expedia acquisition transaction and had been dismissed without prejudice in November 2002, filed a notice of reinstatement of the action in the wake of the March 19, 2003

49



announcement of the IAC/Expedia merger agreement. On April 22, 2003, the court, upon consent of the defendants, issued an order reinstating the consolidated action.

        On May 5, 2003, the court in the reinstated consolidated action, In re Expedia, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, No. 02-2-16669-5 SEA, issued an order, upon consent of the parties to the consolidated action and the parties to the five later-filed purported class actions, consolidating those five actions into the consolidated action.

        On August 8, 2003, the IAC/Expedia merger transaction closed.

        The Company believes that the plaintiffs' allegations in the consolidated action are without merit and will defend vigorously against them.

Litigation Relating to the IAC/Hotels.com Merger Agreement

        As previously disclosed in certain of the Company's SEC filings, on April 10, 2003, IAC and Hotels.com announced that they had entered into an agreement under which IAC would acquire the shares of Hotels.com that it does not currently own in a stock-for-stock transaction. Under the agreement, Hotels.com shareholders would receive IAC stock in accordance with an exchange ratio representing approximately a 20% premium, based on the closing prices of IAC and Hotels.com stock on March 18, 2003, the day preceding the announcement of IAC's merger agreement with Expedia. The agreement was approved by Hotels.com's board of directors following the unanimous recommendation and approval of an independent special committee of the board.

        As previously disclosed by the Company, on April 10, 2003, the day of the announcement of the IAC/Hotels.com merger agreement, a purported class action on behalf of Hotels.com shareholders was filed in the Court of Chancery, New Castle County, State of Delaware, against Hotels.com, IAC, and members of the board of directors of Hotels.com. Michael Garvey, on Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Jonathan F. Miller et al., No. 20248-NC. Also on April 10, 2003, the plaintiff in a purported shareholder derivative action on behalf of Hotels.com against certain officers and directors of Hotels.com, which was pending in the District Court of Dallas, Texas, 160th Judicial District, prior to the announcement of the merger transaction and had originally asserted derivative claims relating to Hotels.com's pre-merger earnings guidance, filed an amended complaint to include class allegations regarding the merger transaction. Alex Solodovnikov, Derivatively on Behalf of Hotels.com v. Robert Diener et al., No. 03-02663. In addition, on April 17, 2003, the plaintiffs in a consolidated action pending in the Court of Chancery, New Castle County, State of Delaware, which had consolidated a number of purported class actions filed against Hotels.com, IAC, and members of the board of directors of Hotels.com as a result of IAC's announcement in June 2002 of its intention to enter into an Hotels.com acquisition transaction, filed a consolidated and amended class-action complaint. In re Hotels.com Shareholders Litigation, No. 16662-NC. Pursuant to an agreement among counsel for the parties, the defendants' time to respond to this complaint and to the complaint in the Garvey case has been adjourned indefinitely.

        The complaints in the two Delaware actions and the class allegations in the complaint in the Texas action allege, in essence, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Hotels.com's public shareholders by entering into and/or approving the merger agreement, which allegedly does not reflect the true value of Hotels.com. The complaints seek to enjoin consummation of the transaction or, in the alternative, to rescind the transaction, as well as damages in an unspecified amount.

        As previously disclosed by the Company, on April 18, 2003, the Texas action was removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas. On May 2, 2003, the plaintiff in this action filed a motion to remand the case to state court.

        On June 3, 2003, the plaintiff in the Texas action (Solodovnikov) withdrew his motion to remand the case to state court and filed a motion in federal court for expedited discovery in anticipation of filing a motion for a preliminary injunction against consummation of the IAC/Hotels.com merger. The

50



defendants opposed the motion. On June 16, 2003, the court denied the plaintiff's motion for expedited discovery.

        On June 23, 2003, the IAC/Hotels.com merger transaction closed.

        The Company believes that the allegations in these lawsuits are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.

HSN Consumer Class Action Litigations

        As previously reported in certain of the Company's SEC filings, including the 2002 10-K, HSN is a defendant in two class actions pending in state court in Illinois and Florida and arising out of the sale of allegedly defective personal computers. On May 15, 2003, a third such purported class action, Dorothy Friedmann, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, and on Behalf of the General Public of the State of California v. HSN Direct, Inc., d/b/a the Home Shopping Network, and Home Shopping Network, Inc., d/b/a the Home Shopping Network, and Does 1-100, No. BC-295766, was filed in the Superior Court of the state of California (Los Angeles County). The complaint alleges that HSN, in marketing Proteva personal computers during the 1996-99 period, engaged in unlawful, unfair, and deceptive trade practices and false advertising, in violation of the California Business and Professions Code. The complaint seeks class certification, restitution of amounts paid, disgorgement of profits, and imposition of a constructive trust on amounts received from HSN's sale of Proteva computers. On July 29, 2003, HSN filed an answer denying the material allegations of the complaint. HSN believes that the allegations in these lawsuits are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.

Ticketmaster Class Action Litigations Related to Magazine Sales

        Michigan.    In the litigation in the Michigan Circuit Court previously reported in the 2002 10-K, Glenn R. Matecun, on Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Ticketmaster L.L.C. and Time Inc., No. 01-3573 CP, on August 12, 2003, the court, in light of the settlement reached by the parties (on terms that are not material to Ticketmaster or the Company), dismissed the action without prejudice.

        California.    In the litigation in the California Superior Court previously reported in the 2002 10-K, Rupert Fowler, an Individual, on Behalf of the General Public v. Ticketmaster Corporation, Time Inc., and Does 1-100, Inclusive, No. 410588, on July 9, 2003, the court, in light of the settlement reached by the parties (on terms that are not material to Ticketmaster or the Company), dismissed the action with prejudice.

Hotels.com Class Action Litigation Related to Occupancy Tax

        On June 20, 2003, a purported class action against Hotels.com, Nora J. Olvera, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Hotels.com, Inc., No. DC-03-259, was filed in the 229th District Court, Duval County, Texas. The complaint alleges that Hotels.com collects "excess" hotel occupancy taxes from consumers (i.e., allegedly charges consumers more for occupancy taxes than it remits to the taxing authorities). The complaint seeks certification of a nationwide class of all persons who have purchased hotel accommodations from Hotels.com since June 20, 1999, as well as restitution of, disgorgement of, and the imposition of a constructive trust upon all "excess" taxes allegedly collected by Hotels.com. On July 14, 2003, Hotels.com filed a responsive pleading that denied the material allegations of the complaint and asserted a number of defenses that it believes are meritorious. Hotels.com believes that this lawsuit is without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against it.

Securities Litigation Involving Hotels.com

        As previously disclosed in certain of the Company's SEC filings, including the 2002 10-K, there is pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas a consolidated securities class

51



action, In re Hotels.com Securities Litigation, No. 3:03-CV-0069-N, arising out of Hotels.com's January 6, 2003 downward revision of its guidance for the fourth quarter of 2002. On June 17, 2003, the court issued an order directing the lead plaintiffs to file and serve a consolidated complaint within sixty days. As previously disclosed by the Company, pending in the same federal court after removal from state court are two shareholder derivative actions, Anita Pomilio-Wilson, Derivatively on Behalf of Nominal Defendant Hotels.com v. Elan J. Blutinger et al., No. 3:03-CV-0501-K, and Alex Solodovnikov, Derivatively on Behalf of Hotels.com v. Robert Diener et al., No. 3:03-CV-0812-K, arising out of the same events as the consolidated securities class action. On May 19, 2003, the plaintiff in the Pomilio-Wilson shareholder derivative action filed a motion to consolidate the two derivative actions. The plaintiff in the Solodovnikov action has opposed this motion; the defendants in the two actions have supported the motion. The motion remains pending.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

        The Company has used, and intends to continue to use, its common stock to make acquisitions and investments. In addition, the Company may issue shares of its common stock to raise additional funds to fund acquisitions, investments and operations. In certain circumstances, these issuances are not registered by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Rather, the Company provides the party receiving such shares with registration rights permitting the registration of the resale of such shares by such persons under the Securities Act.

        During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003, IAC issued an aggregate of 46,866,130 shares of IAC Common Stock to Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty") in connection with the exercise by Liberty of its preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of IAC Common Stock, as provided in the Amended and Restated Governance Agreement among the Company, Vivendi Universal, S.A., "Vivendi") Universal Studios, Inc. ("Universal"), Liberty and Barry Diller, dated as of December 16, 2001. The following table sets forth, in the case of each preemptive exercise, the date, the number of shares issued and the total consideration received by IAC.

Date

  Number of shares of IAC Common

  Consideration received
by IAC

April 7, 2003   11,217,934   $ 220,342,656

May 28, 2003   33,813,169   $ 837,992,732

        In addition, on July 2, 2003, the Company issued 1,834,921 shares of IAC common stock to Liberty in connection with the exercise by Liberty of its preemptive rights (as described above) for related proceeds of $62,203,822.

        The sales of securities described above were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) thereof, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.

Action Taken by Written Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Stockholders' Meeting

        Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 18, 2003, by and among InterActiveCorp (then USA Interactive), Expedia, Inc. ("Expedia") and Equinox Merger Corp., IAC will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of Expedia that it does not already own. The acquisition will be effected by the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of IAC with and into Expedia, with Expedia surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of IAC. In this merger, each outstanding share of Expedia Common Stock and Expedia Class B Common Stock (other than shares held by Expedia shareholders who validly perfect dissenters' rights under Washington law) will be converted into 1.93875 shares of IAC Common Stock. At the time of the execution of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, IAC expected to issue approximately 99.9 million shares of IAC Common Stock upon the closing of this merger.

53


        Because IAC may issue shares of IAC Common Stock in excess of 20% of its current outstanding IAC Common Stock in connection with this merger, shareholder approval of this transaction was required under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Under Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, stockholders are permitted to approve any action that would be taken at any annual or special meeting without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, by written consent of the holders of the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize the action at a meeting if all stockholders entitled to vote were present and voted.

        Pursuant to a stockholders agreement, each of Universal, a subsidiary of Vivendi, and Liberty has granted Barry Diller, IAC's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, an irrevocable proxy over all IAC securities owned by Universal, Liberty and their affiliates for all matters, except for limited contingent matters, which require the consent of Mr. Diller and Liberty. As a result, as of July 9, 2003 (the date of the IAC proxy and information statement/prospectus relating to this merger), Mr. Diller, through shares owned by him, as well as those owned by Liberty and Vivendi, controlled approximately 64.1% of the combined voting power of IAC Common Stock and IAC Class B Common Stock, which was sufficient for approval by IAC stockholders in connection with the transaction. Mr. Diller has signed a written stockholder's consent approving the issuance of IAC securities in the merger. As a result, no action was required on the part of other IAC stockholders.

        IAC has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 relating to this transaction (SEC File No. 333-104973).

Item 5. Other Information

        Following Vivendi's sale of its remaining warrants to acquire approximately 28 million shares of IAC common stock, Vivendi no longer had the right to designate any directors to the IAC board of directors under the Amended and Restated Governance Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2001, among IAC, Vivendi, Universal, Liberty and Barry Diller. Accordingly, in June 2003, Mr. Fourtou resigned as a director of IAC.
