(Unaudited)


NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
IAC is a leading media and Internet company comprised of some of the world's most recognized brands and products, such as HomeAdvisor, Vimeo, About.com, Dictionary.com, The Daily Beast, Investopedia, and Match Group's online dating portfolio, which includes Match, OkCupid, Tinder and PlentyOfFish.
All references to "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp.
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
Basis of Consolidation and Accounting for Investments
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly-owned by the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
Investments in the common stock or in-substance common stock of entities in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial matters of the investee, but does not have a controlling financial interest, are accounted for using the equity method and are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Accounting Estimates
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates, judgments and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related to: the fair values of marketable securities and other investments; the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; the useful lives and recoverability of definite-lived intangible assets and property and equipment; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts; the determination of revenue reserves; the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements; the liabilities for uncertain tax positions; the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for stock-based awards, among others. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets and other factors that the Company considers relevant.

Certain Risks and Concentrations
A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is derived from online advertising, the market for which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant changes in this industry or changes in advertising spending behavior or in customer buying behavior could adversely affect our operating results. Most of the Company's online advertising revenue is attributable to a services agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"). The Company's service agreement became effective on April 1, 2016, following the expiration of the previous services agreement. This services agreement expires on March 31, 2020; the Company may choose to terminate the agreement effective March 31, 2019. This services agreement requires that we comply with certain guidelines promulgated by Google. Google may generally unilaterally update its own policies and guidelines without advance notice; which could in turn require modifications to, or prohibit and/or render obsolete certain of our products, services and/or business practices, which could be costly to address or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue earned from Google was $181.5 million and $466.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, revenue earned from Google was $308.2 million and $647.8 million, respectively. This revenue is earned by the businesses comprising the Publishing and Applications segments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue earned from Google represents 69% and 78% of Publishing revenue and 85% and 88% of Applications revenue, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, revenue earned from Google represents 82% and 83% of Publishing revenue and 94% and 94% of Applications revenue, respectively. Accounts receivable related to revenue earned from Google totaled $57.2 million and $97.2 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payments Accounting (Topic 718). The update is intended to simplify existing guidance on various aspects of the accounting and presentation of employee share-based payments in financial statements including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification on the statement of cash flows. The provisions of ASU 2016-09 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016; early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases in "Leases (Topic 840)" and generally requires all leases to be recognized in the statement of financial position. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption is permitted. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, and in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. Together, this guidance requires that deferred debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability, while debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements may still continue to be classified as assets. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 in the first quarter of 2016 and applied the provisions retrospectively, resulting in $21.3 million of deferred debt issuance costs being reclassified from other non-current assets to long-term debt, net of current portion, in the accompanying December 31, 2015 consolidated balance sheet.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common standard for all industries. In July 2015, the FASB decided to defer the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12, respectively, which provide further revenue recognition guidance related to principal versus agent considerations, performance obligations and licensing, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients. Early adoption is permitted beginning on the original effective date of December 15, 2016. Upon adoption, ASU 2014-09 may either be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard update will have on its consolidated financial statements, and the method and timing of adoption.

Reallocation of Noncontrolling Interests
During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company reallocated amounts within the accounts comprising shareholders' equity to correct the amount of noncontrolling interests that was initially recorded following the initial public offering ("IPO") of Match Group, which occurred on November 24, 2015. The noncontrolling interests should have been recorded using the net book value of Match Group rather than the net IPO proceeds. In addition, the adjustment allocates the proportionate share of the accumulated other comprehensive loss to the noncontrolling interests balance. The reallocation has no effect on net income or earnings per share. Based on our assessment of both qualitative and quantitative factors, the reallocation was not considered material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for: (i) the year ended December 31, 2015, (ii) the three months ended March 31, 2016; and (iii) the six months ended June 30, 2016. Therefore, the adjustment was initially reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and will, therefore, also be reflected in the year-to-date consolidated financial statements of each subsequent interim period in 2016 and the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2016.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2—INCOME TAXES
At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or the liabilities for uncertain tax positions is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or our tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective income tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in income tax provision in the quarter in which the change occurs.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $96.7 million and $95.2 million, respectively, which, in each case, represents an effective income tax rate of 34%. The effective tax rate each period is lower than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the non-deductible portion of the goodwill impairment at the Publishing segment, partially offset by state taxes. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $12.0 million and $5.8 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for each period is due primarily to the realization of certain deferred tax assets, a reduction in tax reserves and related interest due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, and the non-taxable gain on contingent consideration fair value adjustments, partially offset by state taxes.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has accrued $2.8 million and $2.5 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has accrued $1.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for penalties.
The Company is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service has substantially completed its audit of the Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2010 through 2012. The statute of limitations for the years 2010 through 2012 has been extended to March 31, 2017. Various other jurisdictions are open to examination for tax years beginning with 2009. Income taxes payable include reserves considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of

prior year tax returns. Changes to reserves from period to period and differences between amounts paid, if any, upon resolution of audits and amounts previously provided may be material. Differences between the reserves for income tax contingencies and the amounts owed by the Company are recorded in the period they become known.
At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, are $42.4 million and $43.4 million, respectively. If unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2016 are subsequently recognized, $39.4 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce the income tax provision for continuing operations. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2015 was $41.0 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $10.6 million within twelve months of June 30, 2016, primarily due to expirations of statutes of limitations; $10.2 million of which would reduce the income tax provision for continuing operations.
NOTE 3—BUSINESS COMBINATION
On October 28, 2015, Match Group completed the acquisition of Plentyoffish Media Inc. ("PlentyOfFish"), a leading provider of subscription-based and ad-supported online personals servicing North America, Europe, Latin America and Australia. Services are provided through websites and mobile applications that PlentyOfFish owns and operates. The purchase price was $574.1 million in cash and is net of a $0.9 million working capital adjustment paid to Match Group in the second quarter of 2016. The financial results of PlentyOfFish are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements, within the Match Group segment, beginning October 28, 2015.
The table below summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

The purchase price was based on the expected financial performance of PlentyOfFish, not on the value of the net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition, which resulted in a significant portion of the purchase price being attributed to goodwill. The expected financial performance of PlentyOfFish reflects that it is complementary and synergistic to the existing Match Group dating businesses.
Intangible assets are as follows:

PlentyOfFish's other current assets, property and equipment, other non-current assets, current liabilities and other long-term liabilities were reviewed and adjusted to their fair values at the date of acquisition, as necessary. The fair values of trade names, customer relationships and the non-compete agreement were determined using variations of the income approach; specifically, in respective order, the relief from royalty, excess earnings and with or without methodologies. The fair values of new registrants and developed technology were determined using a cost approach that utilized the cost to replace methodology. The valuations of the intangible assets incorporate significant unobservable inputs and require significant judgment and estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows and the determination of royalty and discount rates. The amount attributed to goodwill is not tax deductible.
Pro forma Financial Information
The unaudited pro forma financial information in the table below presents the combined results of the Company and PlentyOfFish as if the acquisition of PlentyOfFish had occurred on January 1, 2015. The pro forma financial information includes adjustments required under the acquisition method of accounting and is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the results would have been had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2015. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, pro forma adjustments reflected below include decreases to revenue of $1.7 million and $8.3 million, respectively, related to the write-off of deferred revenue at the date of acquisition and increases of $5.2 million and $9.0 million, respectively, in amortization of intangible assets.

The June 30, 2016 goodwill balance includes accumulated impairment losses of $598.0 million, $529.1 million, $11.6 million and $42.1 million at Publishing, Applications, Connected Ventures (included in the Video segment), and ShoeBuy (included in the Other segment), respectively.
The additions primarily relate to the acquisition of VHX (included in the Video segment). The deductions primarily relate to the sale of PriceRunner (included in the Other segment).
The Company performs its annual impairment assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1. In each reporting period, the Company assesses whether any events have occurred or circumstances have changed that would make it more likely than not that the carrying values of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets are in excess of their respective fair values. If the Company so concludes, the Company updates its estimate of the fair value of the applicable reporting unit and/or indefinite-lived intangible asset. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not necessary. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then the second step of the goodwill impairment test must be performed. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with its carrying value to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. In other words, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid. If the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. Similarly, if the carrying value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recorded equal to the excess.
The Company concluded that it was more likely than not that the carrying value of the Publishing reporting unit and its indefinite-lived intangible assets were in excess of their respective fair values as of June 30, 2016 and, therefore, updated its estimated fair values of these assets as of that date. This conclusion was based upon the impact of new Google contract, traffic trends and monetization challenges and the anticipated corresponding impact on our estimate of fair value. In performing the first step of the goodwill impairment assessment, the Company determined the fair value of the Publishing reporting unit using both an income approach based on discounted cash flows ("DCF") and a market approach. Determining fair value using a DCF analysis requires the exercise of significant judgment with respect to several items, including judgment about the amount and timing of expected future cash flows and appropriate discount rates. The expected cash flows used in the Publishing DCF analysis were based on the Company's most recent forecast for the second half of 2016 and each of the years in the forecast period, which were updated to include the effects of the new Google contract, traffic trends and monetization challenges and the cost savings from our restructuring efforts. For years beyond the forecast period, the Company's estimated cash flows were based on forecasted growth rates. The discount rate used in the DCF analysis reflects the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows of the Publishing reporting unit. Determining fair value using a market approach considers multiples of financial metrics based on both acquisitions and trading multiples of a selected peer group of companies. From the comparable companies, a representative market multiple was determined which was applied to financial metrics to estimate the fair value of the Publishing reporting unit. To determine a peer group of companies for Publishing, we considered companies relevant in

terms of consumer use, monetization model, margin and growth characteristics and brand strength operating in their respective sectors.
The second step of the impairment calculation is to determine the fair value of the goodwill of the Publishing reporting unit. The estimated fair value of the Publishing reporting unit was allocated to all of its assets and liabilities (which included unrecognized intangible assets) as if the Publishing reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination on June 30, 2016 and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid. Publishing's other current assets, property and equipment, other non-current assets, current liabilities and other long-term liabilities were reviewed and adjusted to their fair values at June 30, 2016 as necessary. The fair values of trade names, advertiser relationships, and certain existing content at About.com were determined using variations of the income approach; specifically, in respective order, the relief from royalty, with or without and excess earnings methodologies. The fair values of developed technology and certain existing content at Investopedia were determined using a cost approach that utilized the cost to replace methodology. The valuations of the intangible assets incorporate significant unobservable inputs and require significant judgment and estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows and the determination of royalty and discount rates. The fair value of the goodwill of the Publishing reporting unit was determined to be zero and an impairment of the entire goodwill balance of $275.4 million was recognized in the second quarter of 2016. The goodwill impairment charge is a preliminary estimate that will be finalized in the third quarter of 2016.
The Company also recorded impairments of $11.6 million of certain trade names and trademarks in the second quarter of 2016. The impairments were due to reduced level of revenue and profits, which, in turn, also led to a reduction in the assumed royalty rates for these assets. The royalty rates used to value the trade names that were impaired ranged from 2% to 6% and the discount rate that was used reflects the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows of the trade names and trademarks.

________________________
(a) Prior to the fourth quarter of 2015, Search & Applications was a reportable segment consisting of one operating segment and one reporting unit. In the fourth quarter of 2015, Search &Applications was split into three new operating segments and reporting units: Publishing, Applications and PriceRunner (included in the Other segment). The goodwill of Search & Applications was allocated to these three reporting units based upon their relative fair values as of October 1, 2015. It is not possible to reflect this allocation on a retrospective basis because of acquisitions and dispositions during the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015.
The additions primarily relate to Match Group's acquisitions of PlentyOfFish and Eureka. The goodwill impairment charge at ShoeBuy (included in the Other segment) was due to increased investment and the seasonal effect of high inventory levels as of October 1, 2015.

The December 31, 2015 goodwill balance includes accumulated impairment losses of $322.6 million, $529.1 million and $65.2 million, which were re-allocated from the former Search & Applications segment, to Publishing, Applications and PriceRunner (included in the Other segment), respectively, based on their relative fair values as of October 1, 2015 following the change in reportable segments that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2015. The goodwill balance at December 31, 2015 also includes accumulated impairment losses of $11.6 million and $42.1 million at Connected Ventures (included in the Video segment) and ShoeBuy (included in the Other segment), respectively.
Intangible assets with indefinite lives are trade names and trademarks acquired in various acquisitions. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company changed the classification of certain intangibles from indefinite-lived to definite-lived at Publishing. In addition, in connection with the goodwill impairment charge at Publishing described above, the Company recorded an $11.6 million impairment charge on certain indefinite-lived trade names. The impairment charge is included in "Amortization of intangibles" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, intangible assets with definite lives are as follows:

The unrealized gains and losses in the tables above are included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The gross unrealized losses on the marketable debt securities relate primarily to changes in interest rates. The Company does not consider the gross unrealized losses to be other-than-temporary because the Company does not intend to sell the marketable debt securities that generated the gross unrealized losses at June 30, 2016, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. The aggregate fair value of available-for-sale marketable debt securities with unrealized losses is $17.3 million as of June 30, 2016. There is one investment in current available-for-sale marketable debt securities that has been in a continuous unrealized loss position for longer than twelve months as of June 30, 2016.

NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company categorizes its financial instruments measured at fair value into a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
•
Level 1: Observable inputs obtained from independent sources, such as quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
•
Level 2: Other inputs, which are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair values of the Company's Level 2 financial assets are primarily obtained from observable market prices for identical underlying securities that may not be actively traded. Certain of these securities may have different market prices from multiple market data sources, in which case an average market price is used.
•
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and require the Company to develop its own assumptions, based on the best information available in the circumstances, about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. See below for a discussion of fair value measurements made using Level 3 inputs.
The following tables present the Company's financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Contingent Consideration Arrangements
As of June 30, 2016, there are eight contingent consideration arrangements related to business acquisitions. Seven of the contingent consideration arrangements have limits as to the maximum amount that can be paid; the maximum contingent payments related to these arrangements are $141.8 million and the fair value of these arrangements at June 30, 2016 is $45.4 million. The fair value of the one contingent consideration arrangement without a limit on the maximum amount is $0.1 million at June 30, 2016.
The contingent consideration arrangements are generally based upon earnings performance and/or operating metrics such as monthly active users. The Company determines the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements by using probability-weighted analyses to determine the amounts of the gross liability, and, if the arrangement is long-term in nature, applying a discount rate that appropriately captures the risks associated with the obligation to determine the net amount reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The number of scenarios in the probability-weighted analyses can vary;

19
Table of Contents
IAC/INTERACTIVECORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)

generally, more scenarios are prepared for longer duration and more complex arrangements. The fair values of the contingent consideration arrangements at June 30, 2016 reflect discount rates ranging from 12% to 25%.
The fair values of the contingent consideration arrangements are sensitive to changes in the forecasts of earnings and/or the relevant operating metrics and changes in discount rates. The Company remeasures the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements each reporting period, including the accretion of the discount, if applicable, and changes are recognized in “General and administrative expense” in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The contingent consideration arrangement liability at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 includes a current portion of $10.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively, and non-current portion of $34.7 million and $31.2 million, respectively, which are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities,” respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Marketable equity security
The cost basis of the Company's long-term marketable equity security at December 31, 2015 was $5.0 million, with gross unrealized gains of $2.6 million. The gross unrealized gains at December 31, 2015 was included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. During the second quarter of 2016 this marketable equity security was classified as short-term due to the Company's decision to sell this security.
Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The Company's non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, as well as equity and cost method investments, are adjusted to fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs. See Note 4 for additional information on the Publishing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charges.
Cost method investments
At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the carrying values of the Company's investments accounted for under the cost method totaled $116.5 million and $114.5 million, respectively, and are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company evaluates each cost method investment for impairment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment loss if a decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. If the Company has not identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of a cost method investment, then the fair value of such cost method investment is not estimated, as it is impracticable to do so.
Financial instruments measured at fair value only for disclosure purposes

The 2015 Match Group Senior Notes were issued on November 16, 2015, in exchange for a portion of the IAC 2012 Senior Notes (the "Match Exchange Offer").
The indentures governing the 2016 and 2015 Match Group Senior Notes contain covenants that would limit Match Group's ability to pay dividends or to make distributions and repurchase or redeem Match Group stock in the event a default has occurred or Match Group's leverage ratio (as defined in the indentures) exceeds 5.0 to 1.0. At June 30, 2016, there were no limitations pursuant thereto. There are additional covenants that limit Match Group's ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur indebtedness, make investments, or sell assets in the event Match Group is not in compliance with the financial ratio set forth in the indenture, and (ii) incur liens, enter into agreements restricting Match Group subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends, enter into transactions with affiliates and consolidate, merge or sell substantially all of their assets.
Match Group Term Loan and Match Group Credit Facility:
On November 16, 2015, under a credit agreement (the "Match Group Credit Agreement"), the Match Group borrowed $800 million in the form of a term loan (the "Match Group Term Loan"). On March 31, 2016, the Company made a $10 million principal payment on the Match Group Term Loan. In addition, on June 1, 2016, the $400 million in proceeds from the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes were used to repay a portion of the Match Group Term Loan. The remaining principal balance at June 30, 2016 of $390 million is due at maturity. The Match Group Term Loan would require additional annual principal payments as part of an excess cash flow sweep provision, the amount of which, if any, is governed by the secured net leverage ratio contained in the Match Group Credit Agreement. The Match Group Term Loan bears interest, at our option, at a base rate or LIBOR, plus 3.50% or 4.50%, respectively, and in the case of LIBOR, a floor of 1.00%. Interest payments are due at least semi-annually through the term of the loan.
Match Group has a $500 million revolving credit facility (the "Match Group Credit Facility") that expires on October 7, 2020. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Match Group Credit Facility. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds based on the current leverage ratio is 30 basis points. Borrowings under the Match Group Credit Facility bear interest, at Match Group's option, at a base rate or LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, which is determined by reference to a pricing grid based on Match Group's consolidated net leverage ratio. The terms of the Match Group Credit Facility require Match Group to maintain a leverage ratio of not more than 5.0 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.5 to 1.0.
There are additional covenants under the Match Group Credit Facility and the Match Group Term Loan that limit the ability of Match Group and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions. While the Match Group Term Loan remains outstanding, these same covenants under the Match Group Credit Agreement are more restrictive than the covenants that are applicable to the Match Group Credit Facility. Obligations under the Match Group Credit Facility and Match Group Term Loan are unconditionally guaranteed by certain Match Group wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, and are also secured by the stock of certain Match Group domestic and foreign subsidiaries. The Match Group Term Loan and outstanding borrowings, if any, under the Match Group Credit Facility rank equally with each other, and have priority over the 2016 and 2015 Match Group Senior Notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing the borrowings under the Match Group Credit Agreement.
IAC Senior Notes:
The 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes were issued by IAC on November 15, 2013 and December 21, 2012, respectively. The 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, which are designated as guarantor subsidiaries. The guarantor subsidiaries are the same for the 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes. See Note 14 for guarantor and non-guarantor financial information.
The indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes contains covenants that would limit our ability to pay dividends or to make distributions and repurchase or redeem our stock in the event a default has occurred or our leverage ratio (as defined in the indenture) exceeds 3.0 to 1.0. At June 30, 2016, there were no limitations pursuant thereto. There are additional covenants that limit the Company's ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur indebtedness, make investments, or sell assets in the event we are not in compliance with the financial ratio set forth in the indenture, and (ii) incur liens, enter into agreements limiting our restricted subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends, enter into transactions with affiliates

and consolidate, merge or sell substantially all of our assets. The indenture governing the 2012 Senior Notes was amended to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants contained therein in connection with the Match Exchange Offer.
IAC Credit Facility:
IAC has a $300 million revolving credit facility (the "IAC Credit Facility") that expires October 7, 2020. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is currently 35 basis points, and is based on the leverage ratio most recently reported. Borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at a base rate or LIBOR, in each case, plus an applicable margin, which is determined by reference to a pricing grid based on the Company's leverage ratio. The terms of the IAC Credit Facility require that the Company maintains a leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) of not more than 3.25 to 1.0 and restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness. Borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the same domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes and are also secured by the stock of certain of our domestic and foreign subsidiaries. The 2013 Senior Notes and 2012 Senior Notes rank equally with each other, and are subordinate to outstanding borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility.

________________________
(a) The impact on earnings of Match Group's dilutive securities is not applicable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as it was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company until its IPO on November 24, 2015.
(b) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the impact on earnings related to Match Group's dilutive securities under the if-converted method are excluded as the impact is anti-dilutive.
(c) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company had a loss from continuing operations and as a result, approximately 10.1 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from computing dilutive earnings per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the weighted average basic shares outstanding were used to compute all earnings per share amounts.
(d) If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of subsidiary denominated equity and stock options and vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs"). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, 1.0 million and 1.2 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 10—SEGMENT INFORMATION
The overall concept that IAC employs in determining its operating segments is to present the financial information in a manner consistent with: how the chief operating decision maker views the businesses; how the businesses are organized as to segment management; and the focus of the businesses with regards to the types of services or products offered or the target market. Operating segments are combined for reporting purposes if they meet certain aggregation criteria, which principally relate to the similarity of their economic characteristics or, in the case of the Other reportable segment, do not meet the quantitative thresholds that require presentation as separate operating segments.

________________________
(a) The Company's primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable, and (ii) gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements. The Company believes this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that 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. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, and we believe that by excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA corresponds more closely to the cash operating income generated from our business, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses.
(b) Consistent with the Company's primary metric (described in (a) above), the Company excludes, if applicable, goodwill and intangible assets from the measure of segment assets presented above.
Revenue by geography is based on where the customer is located. Geographic information about revenue and long-lived assets is presented below:

NOTE 12—SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
Supplemental Disclosure of Non-Cash Transactions:
The Company recorded acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities of $27.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015. See Note 6 for additional information on contingent consideration arrangements.

NOTE 13—CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal matters when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is not probable and, therefore, no reserve is established. Although management currently believes that resolving claims against us, including claims where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, will not have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management's view of these matters may change in the future. The Company also evaluates other contingent matters, including income and non-income tax contingencies, to assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and estimated extent of potential loss. It is possible that an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits or other contingencies could have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company. See Note 2 for additional information related to income tax contingencies.
NOTE 14—GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain domestic subsidiaries, which are 100% owned by the Company. The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 for: IAC, on a stand-alone basis; the combined guarantor subsidiaries of IAC; the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries of IAC; and IAC on a consolidated basis.

Management Overview
IAC is a leading media and Internet company comprised of some of the world's most recognized brands and products, such as HomeAdvisor, Vimeo, About.com, Dictionary.com, The Daily Beast, Investopedia, and Match Group's online dating portfolio, which includes Match, OkCupid, Tinder and PlentyOfFish.
For a more detailed description of the Company's operating businesses, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Substantially all of the revenue from our Publishing and Applications segment is derived from online advertising. Most of the Company's online advertising revenue is attributable to our services agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"). The Company's service agreement became effective on April 1, 2016, following the expiration of the previous services agreement. This services agreement expires on March 31, 2020; the Company may choose to terminate the agreement effective March 31, 2019. This services agreement requires that we comply with certain guidelines promulgated by Google. Google may generally unilaterally update its own policies and guidelines without advance notice; which could in turn require modifications to, or prohibit and/or render obsolete certain of our products, services and/or business practices, which could be costly to address or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue earned from Google was $181.5 million and $466.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, revenue earned from Google was $308.2 million and $647.8 million, respectively. This revenue is earned by the businesses comprising the Publishing and Applications segments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue earned from Google represents 69% and 78% of Publishing revenue and 85% and 88% of Applications revenue,

44



respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, revenue earned from Google represents 82% and 83% of Publishing revenue and 94% and 94% of Applications revenue, respectively.
Recent Developments

Second Quarter and Year to Date June 2016 Consolidated Results
For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's revenue declined 3% and operating income declined $315.2 million to a loss of $252.4 million; however, the Company delivered 3% Adjusted EBITDA growth. Revenue declined primarily due to decreases from the Publishing and Applications segments, partially offset by growth at the Match Group, HomeAdvisor and Video segments. The operating income decline, despite higher Adjusted EBITDA, was due primarily to a goodwill impairment charge of $275.4 million at Publishing, an increase of $22.6 million in amortization of intangibles and expense in the current year period of $6.8 million from acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments compared to income of $10.0 million in the prior year period. The Adjusted EBITDA increase was primarily driven by strong growth from the Match Group, HomeAdvisor and Video segments; partially offset by the declines from the Publishing and Applications segments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue increased 1%, operating income declined $328.9 million to a loss of $231.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA grew 8%. The revenue increase was due primarily to the growth at the Match Group, HomeAdvisor and Video segments, partially offset by the declines from the Applications and Publishing segments. The operating income decline and the Adjusted EBITDA increase were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion. Operating loss was further impacted by an increase of $14.1 million in stock-based compensation expense ($12.3 million at Match Group and $2.1 million at Corporate).

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015
Match Group revenue increased 21% driven by a 23% increase in Dating revenue attributable to 23% higher Direct revenue. Direct revenue growth was primarily driven by higher Average PMC at both North America and International, up 23% and 46%, respectively, due mainly to strong contributions from Tinder and PlentyOfFish, which was acquired on October 28, 2015. This revenue growth was partially offset by 5% lower ARPPU due to the continued mix shift towards lower ARPPU brands including Tinder and PlentyOfFish, both of which have lower price points compared to Match Group's more established brands. Non-dating revenue remained flat year-over-year.
HomeAdvisor revenue increased 38% due primarily to 44% growth at the HomeAdvisor domestic business and 16% growth at the HomeAdvisor International business. HomeAdvisor domestic revenue growth was driven by a 54% increase in Paying SPs and a 32% increase in service requests.
Publishing revenue decreased 45% due to 62% lower Ask & Other revenue and 25% lower Premium Brands revenue. Ask & Other revenue decreased due to a decline in revenue at Ask.com primarily as a result of the new Google contract, which became effective April 1, 2016, as well as declines from certain other legacy businesses. Premium Brands revenue decreased due primarily to declines in search traffic at About.com, mainly attributable to the new Google contract, partially offset by strong growth at Investopedia and The Daily Beast.
Applications revenue decreased 25% due to a 43% decline in Partnerships and a 17% decline in Consumer. Partnerships revenue decreased due primarily to the loss of certain partners. The Consumer decline was driven by lower search revenue from our downloadable desktop applications due primarily to lower revenue per query, partially offset by strong growth at Apalon and SlimWare.
Video revenue increased 16% due primarily to strong growth at Electus, Vimeo and Daily Burn, partially offset by $4.0 million lower revenue from IAC Films as the prior year benefited from the release of the movie While We're Young.
Other revenue decreased 9% due to the sale of PriceRunner, which was sold on March 18, 2016, partially offset by growth at ShoeBuy.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015
Match Group revenue increased 21% driven by a 24% increase in Dating revenue attributable to 23% higher Direct revenue. Direct revenue growth was primarily driven by higher Average PMC at both North America and International, up 24% and 51%, respectively, partially offset by 8% lower ARPPU, all of which were driven by the factors described above in the three-month discussion. Non-dating revenue remained flat year-over-year.

46



HomeAdvisor revenue increased 42% due primarily to 51% growth at the HomeAdvisor domestic business and 14% growth at the HomeAdvisor International business. HomeAdvisor domestic revenue growth was driven by an increase in Paying SPs and service requests.
Publishing revenue decreased 25% due to 37% lower Ask & Other revenue and 10% lower Premium Brands revenue. Both Ask & Other revenue and Premium Brands revenue decreased due to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
Applications revenue decreased 22% due to a 39% decline in Partnerships and a 14% decline in Consumer. Both Partnerships revenue and Consumer revenue decreased due to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
Video revenue increased 17% and Other revenue decreased 1% due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015
Operating income in 2016 decreased to a loss from 2015 despite an increase of $3.4 million in Adjusted EBITDA described below, due primarily to a goodwill impairment charge of $275.4 million at Publishing and increases of $22.6 million in amortization of intangibles and $16.8 million in changes from acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments. The goodwill impairment charge at Publishing was driven by the impact from the new Google contract, traffic trends and monetization challenges and the corresponding impact on the current estimate of fair value. The goodwill impairment charge is a preliminary estimate that will be finalized in third quarter of 2016. The increase in amortization of intangibles was due primarily to the change in classification of a Publishing trade name from an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, effective April 1, 2016, and an impairment charge of $11.6 million related to certain Publishing indefinite-lived trade names. The change in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments was primarily the result of expense in the current year period of $7.6 million in the amount of contingent consideration expected to be paid in connection with an acquisition in the Applications segment, which is now exceeding our previous expectations, versus income of $6.3 million in the prior year period. The change in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments resulted from an update of the future forecast of earnings and operating metrics.
See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for a detailed description of the Publishing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015
Operating income in 2016 decreased to a loss from 2015 despite an increase of $14.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA described below, due primarily to a goodwill impairment charge of $275.4 million at Publishing, increases of $23.8 million in amortization of intangibles, $14.1 million in stock-based compensation expense and $27.4 million in changes from acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments. The goodwill impairment charge, increase in amortization of intangibles and changes in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments are driven by the factors described above in the three-month discussion. The increase in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to the issuance of equity awards since the prior year and charges associated with the modification of certain equity awards in the current year period.
At June 30, 2016, there was $207.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to all equity-based awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.7 years.

(1) Domestically, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA rated money market funds, commercial paper rated A1/P1 or better and treasury discount notes.
(2) Internationally, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA rated money market funds and time deposits with maturities of less than 91 days from the date of purchase.
(3) If needed for our U.S. operations, most of the cash and cash equivalents held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated; however, under current law, would be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. We have not provided for any such tax because the Company currently does not anticipate a need to repatriate these funds to finance our U.S. operations and it is the Company's intent to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of the U.S.

55



(4) Marketable securities consist of treasury discount notes, short-to-medium-term debt securities issued by investment grade corporate issuers and an equity security. The Company invests in marketable debt securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity to fund current operations or satisfy other cash requirements as needed. The Company also invests in equity securities as part of its investment strategy.
(5) At June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents includes Match Group's domestic and international cash and cash equivalents of $73.5 million and $100.5 million, respectively. At December 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents includes Match Group's domestic and international cash and cash equivalents of $34.4 million and $53.8 million, respectively. Marketable securities at December 31, 2015 include $11.6 million at Match Group. There are no marketable securities at June 30, 2016 at Match Group. Agreements governing Match Group’s indebtedness limit the payment of dividends or distributions, loans or advances to stockholders, including the Company. In addition, Match Group is a separate and distinct legal entity with its own public shareholders and board of directors and has no obligation to provide the Company with funds. As a result, we may not freely access the cash of Match Group and its subsidiaries. Match Group generated $113.9 million and $93.5 million of operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
(6) Proceeds from the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes were used to repay a portion of the Match Group Term Loan. Principal payments of $10 million under the Match Group Term Loan are no longer due quarterly through maturity. A final principal payment of $390 million is due at maturity.
(7) The Match Group Term Loan matures on November 16, 2022; provided that, if any of the 2015 Match Group Senior Notes remain outstanding on the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2015 Match Group Senior Notes, the Match Group Term Loan maturity date shall be the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2015 Match Group Senior Notes.
Match Group Senior Notes:
On June 1, 2016, Match Group issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes due June 1, 2024.
On November 16, 2015, Match Group issued $445.2 million of 2015 Match Group Senior Notes in exchange for a portion of IAC 2012 Senior Notes (the "Match Exchange Offer"). Promptly following the closing of the Match Exchange Offer, Match Group and its subsidiaries were designated as unrestricted subsidiaries of IAC for purposes of the indentures governing the 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes and the IAC Credit Facility. Following the designation, neither Match Group nor any of its subsidiaries guaranteed any debt of IAC, or are subject to any of the covenants related to such debt.
The indentures governing the 2016 and 2015 Match Group Senior Notes contain covenants that would limit Match Group's ability to pay dividends or to make distributions and repurchase or redeem Match Group stock in the event a default has occurred or Match Group's leverage ratio (as defined in the indentures) exceeds 5.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2016, Match Group was in compliance with all applicable covenants.
Match Group Term Loan and Match Group Credit Facility:
On November 16, 2015, under a credit agreement (the "Match Group Credit Agreement"), Match Group borrowed $800 million in the form of a term loan. The proceeds of the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes, described above, were used to repay a portion of the Match Group Term Loan and quarterly principal payments of $10 million under the Match Group Term Loan are no longer due; at maturity, a final principal payment of $390 million is due. Additionally, the Match Group Term Loan would require additional annual principal payments as part of an excess cash flow sweep provision, the amount of which, if any, is governed by the secured net leverage ratio set forth in the Match Group Credit Agreement. The Match Group Term Loan bears interest, at Match Group's option, at a base rate or LIBOR, plus 3.50% or 4.50%, respectively, and in the case of LIBOR, a floor of 1.00%. Interest payments are due at least semi-annually through the term of the loan.
Match Group has a $500 million revolving credit facility that expires on October 7, 2020 (the "Match Group Credit Facility"). The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds based on the current leverage ratio is 30 basis points. Borrowings under the Match Group Credit Facility bear interest, at Match Group's option, at a base rate or LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, which is determined by reference to a pricing grid based on Match Group's consolidated net leverage ratio. The terms of the Match Group Credit Facility require Match Group to maintain a leverage ratio of not more than 5.0 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.5 to 1.0.

56



There are additional covenants under the Match Group Credit Facility and the Match Group Term Loan that limit Match Group's ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions. While the Match Group Term Loan remains outstanding, these same covenants under the Match Group Credit Agreement are more restrictive than the covenants that are applicable to the Match Group Credit Facility. Obligations under the Match Group Credit Facility and Match Group Term Loan are unconditionally guaranteed by certain wholly-owned Match Group domestic subsidiaries, and are also secured by the stock of certain Match Group domestic and foreign subsidiaries. The Match Group Term Loan and outstanding borrowings, if any, under the Match Group Credit Facility rank equally with each other, and have priority over the 2016 and 2015 Match Group Senior Notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing the borrowings under the Match Group Credit Agreement.
IAC Senior Notes:
The indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes contains covenants that would limit our ability to pay dividends or to make distributions and repurchase or redeem our stock in the event a default has occurred or our leverage ratio (as defined in the indenture) exceeds 3.0 to 1.0. The restrictive covenants of the indenture governing the 2012 Senior Notes were substantially eliminated following the Match Exchange Offer. As of June 30, 2016, IAC was in compliance with all applicable covenants.
IAC Credit Facility:
IAC has a $300 million revolving credit facility that expires October 7, 2020 (the "IAC Credit Facility"). The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is currently 35 basis points based on the leverage ratio most recently reported. Borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at a base rate or LIBOR, in each case, plus an applicable margin, which is determined by reference to a pricing grid based on the Company's leverage ratio. The terms of the IAC Credit Facility require that the Company maintains a leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) of not more than 3.25 to 1.0 and restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness. The obligations under the IAC Credit Facility are secured by the stock of certain IAC domestic and foreign subsidiaries and unconditionally guaranteed by certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.

2016
Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations consists of earnings from continuing operations, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, amortization of intangibles, goodwill impairment, deferred income taxes, acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments, excess tax benefits, adjustments related to gains on the sale of businesses and investments, and the effect of changes in working capital. Adjustments to earnings primarily consist of $275.4 million of goodwill impairment at the Publishing segment, $58.9 million of stock-based compensation expense, $50.8 million of amortization of intangibles and $33.4 million of depreciation, $90.9 million of deferred income taxes, $21.9 million in excess tax benefits, $13.1 million of net gains on the sale of businesses and investments, $10.5 million of acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments, and $20.9 million in other adjustments that consist mostly of non-cash losses on the extinguishment of Match Group and IAC debt. The decrease from changes in working capital consist primarily of a decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities of $88.2 million and a decrease in income taxes payable of $48.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $47.9 million and an increase in deferred revenue of $32.6 million. The decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities is due to (i) a decrease in accrued advertising and revenue share expense at Publishing and Applications mainly due to the effect of the new services

57



agreement with Google in the second quarter of 2016, (ii) a decrease in accrued employee compensation and benefits mainly related to the payment of 2015 cash bonuses in 2016, (iii) a decrease in payables at Match Group due to timing of payments, and (iv) a decrease in VAT payables related mainly to timing of payments. The decrease in income taxes payable is primarily due to the payment of 2015 tax liabilities in 2016. The decrease in accounts receivable is mainly due to a decrease at Publishing due to lower revenue related to the new services agreement with Google, partially offset by an increase at HomeAdvisor due to revenue growth. The increase in deferred revenue is mainly due to growth in prepaid revenue at Match Group, HomeAdvisor, SlimWare (in the Applications segment) and Vimeo.
Net cash provided by investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2016 includes net proceeds from the sale of businesses and investments of $103.7 million, which mainly consists of proceeds from the sale of PriceRunner, partially offset by purchases (net of sales and maturities) of marketable debt securities of $46.9 million, capital expenditures of $35.1 million, primarily related to Match Group and HomeAdvisor investments in internal development of software to support their products and services, as well as leasehold improvements and computer hardware, and cash used in investments and acquisitions of $7.6 million.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2016 includes $214.6 million for the repurchase of 4.7 million shares of common stock at an average price of $45.34 per share, $61.1 million for the purchase of a portion of the 2012 and 2013 Senior Notes, a $30.0 million increase in restricted cash that relates to unsettled IAC bond redemptions, $13.1 million in net payments related to the issuance of IAC common stock pursuant to stock-based awards, net of withholding taxes, $4.6 million in debt issuance costs related to the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes, $2.4 million for the purchase of noncontrolling interests, and $2.2 million in acquisition-related contingent consideration payments, partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of $21.9 million. Additionally, a payment of $410.0 million was made toward the Match Group Term Loan, of which $400.0 million was financed by the issuance of the 2016 Match Group Senior Notes.
2015
Adjustments to earnings from continuing operations primarily consist of $44.9 million of stock-based compensation expense, $31.1 million of depreciation and $27.0 million of amortization of intangibles, partially offset by $36.5 million of excess tax benefits from stock-based awards and $16.9 million in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of a decrease in income taxes payable of $63.3 million and a decrease of $33.4 million in accounts payable and other current liabilities, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $40.4 million. The decrease in income taxes payable is primarily due to the payment of 2014 tax liabilities in 2015 and the realization of a capital loss in the current year. The decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities is due mainly to a decrease in accrued advertising expense and accrued revenue share at Publishing and Applications, respectively, partially offset by an increase in accrued advertising at Match Group. The decrease in accrued advertising at Publishing is due mainly to lower fees paid to search engines and timing of payments. The decrease in accrued revenue at Applications is due mainly to lower Partnerships revenue. The increase in accrued advertising at Match Group is due mainly to increased online spending. The increase in deferred revenue is due mainly to growth in subscription revenue at Match Group, Vimeo, and HomeAdvisor, as well as an increase at Electus due to the timing of cash received related to various production deals.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2015 includes the purchase of marketable debt securities, net of proceeds from maturities and sales, of $78.5 million, the purchase of investments and acquisitions of $56.1 million and capital expenditures of $26.8 million, primarily related to the internal development of software to support our products and services, and computer hardware.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2015 includes $200.0 million for the repurchase of 3.0 million shares of common stock at an average price of $67.68 per share, $56.7 million related to the payment of cash dividends to IAC shareholders, $20.7 million in net payments related to the issuance of common stock pursuant to stock-based awards, net of withholding taxes, $15.3 million for the purchase of noncontrolling interests and $5.7 million in acquisition-related contingent consideration payments, partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of $36.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as well as cash flows generated from operations. IAC has a $300 million revolving credit facility that expires on October 7, 2020. Match Group has a $500 million revolving credit facility that expires on October 7, 2020. At June 30, 2016, there were no outstanding borrowings under the IAC Credit Facility or the Match Group Credit Facility.
At June 30, 2016, IAC had 10.9 million shares remaining in its share 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 consolidated cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2016 were $1.246 billion, of which $174.0 million was owned by Match Group. The Company generated $65.9 million of operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016, of which $113.9 million was generated by Match Group. Agreements governing Match Group's indebtedness limit the payment of dividends or distributions and loans or advances to stockholders, including the Company. In addition, Match Group is a separate and distinct legal entity with its own public shareholders and board of directors and has no obligation to provide the Company with funds. As a result, we may not freely access the cash of the Match Group and its subsidiaries.
The Company anticipates that it will need to make capital and other expenditures in connection with the development and expansion of its operations. The Company expects that 2016 capital expenditures will be higher than 2015 by approximately 25% to 35%, driven mostly by leasehold improvements related to a new lease for Match Group's corporate headquarters, as well costs related to a new Match Group data center, and HomeAdvisor's sales center expansion.
The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents, time deposits and marketable securities and expected positive cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our normal operating requirements, including capital expenditures, debt service, the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for net-settled stock-based awards, and investing and other commitments for the foreseeable future. The Company's liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for our respective products and services. The Company’s indebtedness could limit our ability to: (i) obtain additional financing to fund working capital needs, acquisitions, capital expenditure or debt service or other requirements; and (ii) use operating cash flow to make acquisitions, capital expenditures, invest in other areas, such as developing properties and exploiting business opportunities. The Company may make additional acquisitions and investments and, as a result, the Company may need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing to provide for greater financial flexibility. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to us.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS
At June 30, 2016, except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Company's contractual obligations, commercial commitments and off-balance sheet arrangements since the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Company has total long-term debt of $1.7 billion at both June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. However, on June 1, 2016, Match Group issued $400 million of 6.375% Senior Notes. The proceeds from the offering were used to repay a portion of the $790 million of indebtedness outstanding under the Match Group Term Loan. The Match Group Term Loan currently bears interest at LIBOR plus 4.50%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. Based on this transaction, the Company will incur approximately $100 million of additional interest expense over the term of its debt obligations due to the higher interest rate and the longer maturity of the 6.375% Senior Notes, due June 1, 2024, as compared to the Match Group Term Loan, due November 16, 2022. The amount of interest ultimately paid on the Match Group Term Loan may differ based on future changes in interest rates.

IAC'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

IAC reports Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This measure 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. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measure, which we discuss below.

Definition of IAC's Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable, and (ii) gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that 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. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, and we believe that by excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA corresponds more closely to the cash operating income generated from our business, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From IAC's Non-GAAP Measure
Stock-based compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance-based RSUs. These expenses are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding using the treasury stock method; however, performance-based RSUs are included only to the extent the performance criteria have been met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period). Upon the exercise of certain stock options and vesting of RSUs 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.
Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our property and equipment and is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives.
Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash expenses related 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. 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.
Gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements 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.

RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

At June 30, 2016, except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Company's instruments or positions that are sensitive to market risk since the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Interest Rate Risk
At June 30, 2016, the Company's outstanding debt was $1.7 billion (including $50.0 million of 2013 Senior Notes classified as current, pending purchase) of which $1.3 billion bears interest at fixed rates and $390 million bears interest at variable rates. If market rates decline, the Company runs the risk that the related required payments on the fixed rate debt will exceed those based on market rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in the level of interest rates would, respectively, decrease or increase the fair value of the fixed-rate debt by $59.4 million. Such potential increase or decrease in fair value is based on certain simplifying assumptions, including a constant level and rate of fixed-rate debt for all maturities and an immediate across-the-board increase or decrease in the level of interest rates with no other subsequent changes for the remainder of the period. The Match Group Term Loan currently bears interest at LIBOR plus 4.50%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%.  LIBOR at June 30, 2016 for similar borrowings of three months was approximately 65 basis points. If LIBOR were to increase by 100 basis points then the annual interest payments on the Match Group Term Loan would increase by 65 basis points, or $2.6 million, in 2016. If LIBOR decreased 65 basis points to zero, annual interest payments on the Match Group Term Loan would remain the same. Such potential changes in interest payments are based on quarterly amortization and certain simplifying assumptions, including a constant rate of variable-rate debt for all maturities and an immediate across-the-board increase or decrease in the level of interest rates with no other subsequent changes for the remainder of the period.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

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

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), IAC management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and Forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes to the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Overview

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, intellectual property and other claims, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, neither the Company nor any of our subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
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 damages 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 IAC management, none of the pending litigation matters which we 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 our stockholders, regardless of whether any of these matters may be material to our financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Securities Class Action Litigation against Match Group

As previously disclosed in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016, on February 26, 2016, a putative nationwide class action was filed in federal court in Texas against Match Group, five of its officers and directors, and twelve underwriters of Match Group's Company’s initial public offering in November 2015.  See David M. Stein v. Match Group, Inc. et al., No. 3:16-cv-549 (U.S. District Court, Northern District of Texas).  The complaint alleges that Match Group's registration statement and prospectus issued in connection with its initial public offering were materially false and misleading given their failure to state that: (i) Match Group's Non-dating business would miss its revenue projection for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, and (ii) ARPPU (as defined in "Item 2—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—General—Key Terms") would decline substantially in the quarter ended December 31, 2015.  The complaint asserts that these alleged failures to timely disclose material information caused Match Group's stock price to drop after the announcement of its earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.  The complaint pleads claims under the Securities Act of 1933 for untrue statements of material fact in, or omissions of material facts from, the registration statement, the prospectus, and related communications in violation of Sections 11 and 12 and, as to the officer/director defendants only, control-person liability under Section 15 for the Company’s alleged violations.  The complaint seeks class certification, damages in an unspecified amount and attorneys’ fees.  On March 9, 2016, a virtually identical class action complaint was filed in the same court against the same defendants by a different named plaintiff.  See Stephany Kam-Wan Chan v. Match Group, Inc. et al., No. 3:16-cv-668 (U.S. District Court, Northern District of Texas).  On April 25, 2016, Judge Boyle in the Chan case issued an order granting the parties’ joint motion to transfer that case to Judge Lindsay, who is presiding over the earlier-filed Stein case.  On April 27, 2016, various current or former shareholders in Match Group and their respective law firms filed motions seeking appointment as lead plaintiff(s) and lead or liaison counsel for the putative class.  On April 28, 2016, the Court issued orders: (i) consolidating the Chan case into the Stein case, (ii) approving the parties’ stipulation to extend the defendants’ time to respond to the complaint until after the Court has appointed a lead plaintiff and lead counsel for the putative class and has set a schedule for the plaintiff’s filing of a consolidated complaint and the defendants’ response to that pleading, and (iii) referring the various motions for appointment of lead plaintiff(s) and lead or liaison counsel for the putative class to a United States Magistrate Judge for determination.  On June 9, 2016, the Magistrate Judge issued an order appointing two lead plaintiffs, two law firms as co-lead plaintiffs’ counsel, and a third law firm as plaintiffs’ liaison counsel.  In accordance with this order, the consolidated case is now captioned Mary McCloskey et ano. v. Match Group, Inc. et al., No. 3:16-CV-549-L.  On July 27, 2016, the parties submitted to the Court a joint status report proposing a schedule for the plaintiffs’ filing of a consolidated amended complaint and the parties’ briefing of the defendants’ contemplated motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint. We and Match Group believe that the allegations in these lawsuits are without merit and will defend vigorously against them.
