Forward-Looking Statements. This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform 
Act of 1995. These statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s 
expectations as of April 30, 2015 and assumptions which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult 
to predict. The use of words such as "intends" and “expects,” among others, generally identifies forward-looking statements. However, these words 
are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other 
characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements and may include statements relating to future revenues, 
expenses, margins, profitability, net income / (loss), earnings per share and other measures of results of operations and the prospects for future 
growth of Expedia, Inc.’s business. Actual results and the timing and outcome of events may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the 
forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others: an increasingly competitive global environment; modifications to our 
current business models and practices or our adoption of new business models or practices in order to compete; changes in search engine 
algorithms and dynamics or other traffic-generating arrangements; declines or disruptions in the travel industry; our failure to maintain and expand 
our relationships and contractual agreements with travel suppliers or travel distribution partners; our failure to maintain and expand our brand 
awareness or increased costs to do so; our failure to adapt to technological developments or industry trends; risks relating to our operations in 
international markets, including China; adverse application of existing tax or unclaimed property laws, rules or regulations or implementation of new 
unfavorable laws, rules or regulations; adverse outcomes in legal proceedings to which we are a party; our failure to comply with current laws, rules 
and regulations, or changes to such laws, rules and regulations; determinations by U.S. and foreign tax authorities regarding our worldwide tax 
provision for income taxes; payments related risks, including credit card fraud; volatility in our stock price; liquidity constraints or our inability to access
the capital markets when necessary; interruption or lack of redundancy in our information systems; failure to retain or motivate key personnel or hire, 
retain and motivate qualified personnel, including senior management; changes in control of the Company; management and director conflicts of 
interest; risks related to actions taken by our business partners and third party service providers, including failure to comply with our requirements or 
standards or the requirements or standards of governmental authorities, or any cessation of their operations; risks related to the failure of 
counterparties to perform on financial obligations; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; our failure to comply with governmental regulation and 
other legal obligations related to our processing, storage, use and disclosure of personal data, and liabilities related to security breaches; risks related
to our acquisitions, investments or significant commercial arrangements; risks related to our long-term indebtedness; our failure to effectively operate
our businesses due to restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness; our failure to protect our intellectual property from 
copying or use by others, including competitors; and other risks detailed in Expedia, Inc.’s public filings with the SEC, including our quarterly report on 
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.  Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking or other 
statements in this presentation, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

APPENDICES

Non-GAAP Definitions
17
Adjusted EBITDA
is defined as operating income plus: (1) stock-based compensation expense, including compensation expense
related
to
certain
subsidiary
equity
plans;
(2)
acquisition-related
impacts,
including
(i)
amortization
of
intangible
assets
and
goodwill
and intangible asset impairment, (ii) gains (losses) recognized on changes in the value of contingent consideration arrangements;
and (iii) upfront consideration paid to settle employee compensation plans of the acquiree; (3) certain infrequently occurring items,
including restructuring; (4) items included in Legal reserves, occupancy tax and other, which includes reserves for potential
settlement of issues related to transactional taxes (e.g. hotel and excise taxes), related to court decisions and final settlements, and
charges incurred, if any, for monies that may be required to be paid in advance of litigation in certain transactional tax proceedings;
(5) gains (losses) realized on revenue hedging activities that are included in other, net; and (6) depreciation.
The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are noncash in nature, or because the
amount
and
timing
of
these
items
is
unpredictable,
not
driven
by
core
operating
results
and
renders
comparisons
with
prior
periods
and
competitors
less
meaningful.
We
believe
Adjusted
EBITDA
is
a
useful
measure
for
analysts
and
investors
to
evaluate
our
future
on-
going performance as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison of our performance and projected cash earnings with our
historical results from prior periods and to the results of our competitors. Moreover, our management uses this measure internally to
evaluate the performance of our business as a whole and our individual business segments. In addition, we believe that by excluding
certain items, such as stock-based compensation and acquisition-related impacts, Adjusted EBITDA corresponds more closely to the
cash operating income generated from our business and allows investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends
affecting the ongoing cash earnings capabilities of our business, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced.
Adjusted EPS
is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by adjusted weighted average shares outstanding, which include dilution
from options and warrants per the treasury stock method and include all shares relating to RSUs in shares outstanding for Adjusted
EPS.
This
differs
from
the
GAAP
method
for
including
RSUs,
which
treats
them
on
a
treasury
method
basis.
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, Expedia’s consolidated results, taking into account depreciation, which we
believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, as well as other items which are not allocated to the operating businesses such as
interest expense, taxes, foreign exchange gains or losses, and minority interest, but excluding the effects of certain expenses not
directly
tied
to
the
core
operations
of
our
businesses.
Adjusted
Net
Income
and
Adjusted
EPS
have
similar
limitations
as
Adjusted
EBITDA. In addition, Adjusted Net Income does not include all items that affect our net income / (loss) and net income / (loss) per
share for the period. Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate these measures along with our consolidated statements of
operations.
