IACs ANGI Homeservices Inc. Makes Stock Market Debut
· IAC completes transaction combining Angies List with HomeAdvisor to launch category leader in the $400 billion market for home services
· ANGI Homeservices offers largest network in North America with 200,000 high quality service professionals across 500 home services categories and 400 discrete markets
· Suzy Welch, Alesia J. Haas and Yilu Zhao join Board of Directors
NEW YORK October 2, 2017 IAC (NASDAQ: IAC) and ANGI Homeservices Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGI) today announced that ANGI Homeservices Inc. will commence trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol ANGI today, October 2, 2017, following the completion of the transaction combining Angies List and IACs HomeAdvisor into a single, publicly-traded company. The new company instantly connects homeowners with the largest network of high quality service professionals in North America, and the combined network delivers the scale necessary to accelerate product innovation in the $400 billion home services categorys shift online. The transaction was approved by stockholders of Angies List at a special meeting held for such purpose on September 29, 2017, and completed following close of business that same day.
ANGI Homeservices combines Angies Lists well-known brand and large audience with IACs home services category leader HomeAdvisor, creating a pro forma entity that exceeded $890 million in combined revenue over the last twelve months, as of the second quarter of 2017. The combined company expects to generate $270 million in Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 (excluding deferred revenue write-offs and transaction related one-time costs of up to $100 million) and is targeting a five-year compound annual growth rate of revenue of 20 to 25 percent, with Adjusted EBITDA margins ramping to approximately 35 percent.
The combination of these two powerful companies marks a tipping point for the home services category, said Chris Terrill, CEO, ANGI Homeservices. As spending on home improvement projects continues to rise, consumers and service pros will now have access to unprecedented scale and product breadth when it comes to matching the right jobs with the right expertise in a fast, efficient and seamless way. As a single company, we can now drive more product innovation and value across our combined marketplace, increase customer satisfaction across the board, and more rapidly grab share from our single biggest competitor in this underpenetrated market: word of mouth.
ANGI Homeservices offers the marketplace:
· North Americas largest combined network of 200,000 active, high quality service professionals with coverage across 500 different home services categories and 400 markets;
· A giant leap in scale on both the supply and demand side of the home services marketplace, accelerating this relatively immature markets shift online;
· Enhanced innovation, products and technology to seamlessly connect homeowners and service providers including Same Day Service, Instant Booking and Instant Connect;
· Superior monetization through the combination of Angies Lists nationally-recognized brand and HomeAdvisors performance-based on-demand marketplace, fueling incremental jobs to the combined network and increasing combined revenue.
ANGI Homeservices also today announced the appointment of three new Directors to its Board: best-selling author and business journalist Suzy Welch; Oz Management CFO and former CFO of OneWest Alesia J. Haas; and private equity investor and former CFO of Qunar Yilu Zhao. This brings the total size of the ANGI Homeservices Board of Directors to 10.
ANGI Homeservices joins the ranks of Match, Expedia, Ticketmaster and many others, to emerge from IAC as a leader in its category with a powerful marketplace and strong momentum. I believe this one could be our biggest yet, said Joey Levin, CEO of IAC and Chairman of the ANGI Homeservices Board.
