Search & Applications

 

Revenue reflects strong growth from both Applications and Websites.  Websites revenue includes a $36.7 million contribution from The About Group, which was not in the prior year period.  Profits were favorably impacted by higher revenue and lower cost of acquisition as a percentage of revenue, as well as the contribution from The About Group, which had Operating Income Before Amortization of $13.3 million.  Profits were negatively impacted by the write-off of $2.7 million in capitalized software costs at The About Group primarily related to projects which commenced prior to its acquisition.  Operating income in the current year period reflects an increase of $6.7 million in amortization of intangibles primarily related to the acquisition of The About Group.

 

Match

 

Core, Meetic and Developing revenue for the current year period was $116.1 million, $54.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively.  The growth in revenue was driven by increases in subscribers.  Operating income in the current year period was negatively impacted by a $4.2 million contingent consideration fair value adjustment, which relates to the Twoo acquisition.

Local, Media and Other

 

Revenue increased primarily due to strong growth from Electus and Vimeo, the contribution from Felix and Tutor.com, which were not in the prior year period, and News_Beast (consolidated June 2012), partially offset by a decrease in revenue at CityGrid Media.  Operating Income Before Amortization losses were impacted by increased selling and marketing expense at HomeAdvisor following its re-branding, $4.8 million in severance and impairment charges related to the restructuring of CityGrid Media and the inclusion of Tutor.com, partially offset by decreased losses at News_Beast, Electus and Vimeo.  Operating loss also reflects an increase of $6.1 million in amortization of intangibles, primarily related to an impairment charge at CityGrid Media.

 

Corporate expenses increased primarily due to an increase in professional fees.  Corporate operating loss declined due to a decrease in non-cash compensation expense of $8.4 million as certain awards fully vested in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the number of awards forfeited increased from the prior year period.

 

OTHER ITEMS

 

Interest expense in the current year period is primarily related to the 4.75% Senior Notes due 2022, which were issued in December 2012.

 

Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates in Q2 2012 includes a pre-tax non-cash charge of $18.6 million related to the re-measurement of the carrying value of our investment in News_Beast to fair value in connection with our acquisition of a controlling interest.

 

The effective tax rates for continuing operations in Q2 2013 and Q2 2012 were 40% and 37%, respectively.  The effective tax rate for continuing operations was higher in Q2 2013 primarily due to interest on income tax contingencies in the current year period.  The effective tax rates for Adjusted Net Income in Q2 2013 and Q2 2012 were 37% and 32%, respectively.  The effective tax rate for Adjusted Net Income was higher in Q2 2013 primarily due to the reassessment of our ability to realize certain deferred tax assets which benefited the prior year period.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

During Q2 2013, IAC repurchased 1.5 million common shares at an average price of $49.41 per share, or $73.1 million in aggregate.  As of June 30, 2013, IAC had 82.9 million common and class B common shares outstanding.  As of July 26, 2013, the Company had 10.2 million shares remaining in its stock repurchase authorization.  IAC may purchase shares over an indefinite period of time on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions, depending on those factors IAC management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, share price and future outlook.

IAC’S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

IAC reports Operating Income Before Amortization, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow, all of which are supplemental measures to GAAP.  These measures are among 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. These non-GAAP measures 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.  IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measures presented by providing the comparable GAAP measures with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measures.  We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures contained in this release and which we discuss below.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

 

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

 

Operating Income Before Amortization is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (3) goodwill impairment, (4) acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments and (5) one-time items.  We believe this measure is useful to investors because it represents the consolidated operating results from IAC’s segments, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Operating Income Before Amortization has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC’s statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation and acquisition-related accounting.

 

Adjusted Net Income generally captures all items on the statement of operations that have been, or ultimately will be, settled in cash and is defined as net earnings attributable to IAC shareholders excluding, net of tax effects and noncontrolling interests, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (3) goodwill impairment, (4) acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments, (5) income or loss effects related to IAC’s former passive ownership in VUE, (6) the re-measurement loss recorded upon acquiring control of News_Beast, (7) one-time items and (8) discontinued operations.  We believe Adjusted Net Income is useful to investors because it represents IAC’s consolidated results, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, as well as other charges which are not allocated to the operating businesses such as interest expense, income taxes and noncontrolling interests, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses.

 

Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS purposes.  We include dilution from options and warrants in accordance with the treasury stock method and include all restricted stock units (“RSUs”) in shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS, with performance-based RSUs included based on the number of shares that the Company believes are probable of vesting.  This differs from the GAAP method for including RSUs, which treats them on a treasury method basis and with respect to performance-based RSUs only to the extent the performance criteria are met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period).  Shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS purposes are therefore higher than shares outstanding for GAAP EPS purposes.  We believe Adjusted EPS is useful to investors because it represents, on a per share basis, IAC’s consolidated results, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, as well as other charges which are not allocated to the operating businesses such as interest expense, income taxes and noncontrolling interests, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS have the same limitations as Operating Income Before Amortization, and in addition Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS do not account for IAC’s former passive ownership in VUE.  Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate these measures along with our consolidated statement of operations.

 

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures.  In addition, Free Cash Flow excludes, if applicable, tax payments and refunds related to the sales of certain businesses and investments, including IAC’s interests in VUE, an internal restructuring and dividends received that represent a return of capital due to the exclusion of the proceeds from these sales and dividends from cash provided by operating activities.  We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to investors because it represents the cash that our operating businesses generate, before taking into account cash movements that are non-operational. Free Cash Flow has certain limitations in that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period, nor does it represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures.  For example, it does not take into account stock repurchases.  Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate Free Cash Flow along with our consolidated statement of cash flows.

IAC’S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING - continued

 

One-Time Items

 

Operating Income Before Amortization and Adjusted Net Income are presented before one-time items, if applicable.  These items 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, in accordance with SEC rules. GAAP results include one-time items. For the periods presented in this release, there are no adjustments for one-time items.

 

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

 

Non-cash compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of stock options, restricted stock units and performance-based RSUs.  These expenses are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding which, for stock options and restricted stock units are included on a treasury method basis, and for performance-based RSUs are included on a treasury method basis once the performance conditions are met.  We view the true cost of our restricted stock units and performance-based RSUs as the dilution to our share base, and such units are included in our shares outstanding for Adjusted EPS purposes as described above under the definition of Adjusted EPS.  Upon the exercise of certain stock options and vesting of restricted stock units and performance-based RSUs, the awards are settled, at the Company’s discretion, on a net basis, with the Company remitting the required tax withholding amount from its current funds.

 

Amortization of intangibles (including impairment of intangibles, if applicable) and goodwill impairment (if applicable) are non-cash expenses relating primarily to acquisitions.  At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as content, technology, customer lists, advertiser and supplier relationships, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives.  Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization.  An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value.  While it is likely that we will have significant intangible amortization expense as we continue to acquire companies, we believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

 

Acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments are accounting adjustments to report contingent consideration liabilities at fair value. These adjustments can be highly variable and are excluded from our assessment of performance because they are considered non-operational in nature and, therefore, are not indicative of current or future performance or ongoing costs of doing business.

 

Income or loss effects related to IAC’s former passive ownership in VUE are excluded from Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS because IAC had no operating control over VUE, which was sold for a gain in 2005, had no way to forecast this business, and did not consider the results of VUE in evaluating the performance of IAC’s businesses.

 

Free Cash Flow

 

We look at Free Cash Flow as a measure of the strength and performance of our businesses, not for valuation purposes.  In our view, applying “multiples” to Free Cash Flow is inappropriate because it is subject to timing, seasonality and one-time events.  We manage our business for cash and we think it is of utmost importance to maximize cash — but our primary valuation metrics are Operating Income Before Amortization and Adjusted EPS.
