ITEM 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On April 22, 2015, Ancestry.com LLC (the “Company”) announced via a press release its preliminary results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. The exhibit contains references to non-GAAP revenues, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are useful measures of operating performance because they exclude items that the Company does not consider indicative of its core performance. In the case of adjusted EBITDA, net income (loss) is adjusted for interest expense, net; other (income) expense, net; income tax expense (benefit); and non-cash charges, including depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense. Free cash flow subtracts from adjusted EBITDA capitalization of content databases, purchases of property and equipment and cash received (paid) for income taxes and interest. However, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to net income (loss), the GAAP equivalent of these non-GAAP measures, is contained in tabular form on the attached unaudited summary financial statements.

The Company uses adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as measures of operating performance; for planning purposes, including the preparation of the annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of its business; to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies; and in communications with its operating committee concerning its financial performance. The Company also uses adjusted EBITDA as a factor when determining the incentive compensation pool.

The information in this Item 2.02 (including the related information in Exhibit 99.1) shall not be treated as filed for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
