NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
IAC is a leading media and Internet company comprised of more than
150
brands and products, including Ask.com, About.com, Match.com, HomeAdvisor and Vimeo. Focused on the areas of search, applications, online dating, media and eCommerce, IAC's family of websites is one of the largest in the world, with over a billion monthly visits across more than
100
countries. IAC includes its Search & Applications, The Match Group, Media and eCommerce reportable segments, as well as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
All references to "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp.
Change in Reportable Segments
During the first quarter of 2014, IAC realigned its reportable segments as follows:
•
The Company created a new segment called "The Match Group" that includes Match, which was previously reported as its own separate segment, and DailyBurn and Tutor, which were previously in the Media and Other segments, respectively.
•
The businesses within the Local segment, HomeAdvisor, Felix and, for periods prior to July 1, 2013, CityGrid Media, were moved to the eCommerce segment, formerly called the Other segment.
•
There were no changes to the Search & Applications segment.
New Non-GAAP Measure
In addition, the Company introduced Adjusted EBITDA, a new non-GAAP financial measure, beginning with the first quarter of 2014. Going forward, the Company plans to regularly report Adjusted EBITDA and will no longer report Operating Income Before Amortization. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure 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.
Refer to Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to operating income (loss) by reportable segment.
Basis of Presentation
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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. 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 U.S. 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 a 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, 2013
.

IAC/INTERACTIVECORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these 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 recovery of definite-lived intangible assets and property and equipment; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts and revenue reserves; the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration; the reserves for income tax contingencies; 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"), which expires on
March 31, 2016
. Our services agreement requires that we comply with certain guidelines promulgated by Google. Subject to certain limitations, Google may unilaterally update its policies and guidelines, which could 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
months ended
March 31, 2014
and
2013
, revenue earned from Google is
$355.6 million
and
$376.1 million
, respectively. This revenue is earned by the businesses comprising the Search & Applications segment. Accounts receivable related to revenue earned from Google totaled
$128.0 million
and
$112.3 million
at
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08,
Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,
which changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies the related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as a disposal of a component or group of components that represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The revised guidance is effective for annual fiscal periods beginning after
December 15, 2014
. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the revised guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
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 income tax contingencies 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 realizability 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
9
IAC/INTERACTIVECORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
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
months ended
March 31, 2014
, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of
$21.4 million
, which represents an effective income tax rate of
38%
. The effective rate for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2014
is higher than the statutory rate of
35%
due primarily to interest on reserves for income tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. For the
three
months ended
March 31, 2013
, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of
$25.7 million
, which represents an effective income tax rate of
33%
. The effective rate for the
three months ended
March 31, 2013
is lower than the statutory rate of
35%
due primarily to foreign income taxed at lower rates and research credits, partially offset by state taxes.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. Included in the income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
is a
$1.6 million
and a
$0.8 million
expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the
three months ended
March 31, 2013
is a
$1.3 million
and a
$1.0 million
expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company has accrued
$137.0 million
and
$133.0 million
, respectively, for the payment of interest. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company has accrued
$5.3 million
and
$5.1 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. Various jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are France, California, New York and New York City for various tax years beginning with 2006. 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.
On August 28, 2013, the Joint Committee of Taxation completed its review and approved the audit settlement previously agreed to with the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2009. The statute of limitations for the years 2001 through 2009 expires on July 1, 2014. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, are
$411.8 million
and
$408.8 million
, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, for the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
increased by
$3.0 million
due principally to interest accruals. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits at
March 31, 2014
,
$409.4 million
is included in "Income taxes payable,"
$2.1 million
relates to deferred tax assets included in "Deferred income taxes" and
$0.3 million
is included in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Included in unrecognized tax benefits at
March 31, 2014
is
$43.1 million
relating to tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. If unrecognized tax benefits at
March 31, 2014
are subsequently recognized,
$124.0 million
and
$173.8 million
, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax expense for continuing operations and discontinued operations, respectively. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease within twelve months of the current reporting date. An estimate of changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
All of the Company’s marketable debt securities are rated investment grade. The gross unrealized losses on the marketable debt securities relate principally to changes in interest rates. Because the Company does not intend to sell any marketable debt securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell any marketable debt securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider any of its marketable debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2014.

NOTE 4—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 determining the fair value of 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 that 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 value 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:

Auction rate security
The Company's auction rate security is valued by discounting the estimated future cash flow streams of the security over the life of the security. Credit spreads and other risk factors are also considered in establishing fair value. The cost basis of the auction rate security is
$10.0 million
, with gross unrealized losses of
$0.9 million
and
$1.1 million
at
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, respectively. The unrealized losses are included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At
March 31, 2014
, the auction rate security is rated A-/WR and matures in 2035. The Company does not consider the auction rate security to be other-than-temporarily impaired at
March 31, 2014
, due to its high credit rating and because the Company does not intend to sell this security, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell this security, before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity.
Contingent Consideration Arrangements
As of
March 31, 2014
, there are five contingent consideration arrangements related to recent business acquisitions. Four of the contingent consideration arrangements have limits as to the maximum amount that can be paid; the maximum contingent payments related to these arrangements is
$138.3 million
and the fair value of these four arrangements at
March 31, 2014
is
$47.4 million
. The fair value of the one contingent consideration arrangement without a limit on the maximum amount is
$1.4 million
at
March 31, 2014
. The contingent consideration arrangements are generally based upon earnings performance and/or operating metrics. The Company primarily uses probability-weighted analyses to determine the amount of the gross liability, and, to the extent the arrangement is long-term in nature, applies a discount rate which captures the risks associated with the obligation. The amount of scenarios in the probability-weighted analyses can vary; generally, more scenarios are prepared for longer duration and more complex arrangements.
The most significant contingent consideration arrangement relates to the January 2013 acquisition of Massive Media, NV, which operates Twoo.com. The Twoo.com contingent consideration arrangement is payable in three annual installments beginning in 2014. The 2014, 2015 and 2016 payments are based upon 2013 EBITDA, EBITDA for 2014 and monthly active users of Twoo.com at December 31, 2014 and EBITDA for 2015 and monthly active users of Twoo.com at December 31, 2015, respectively. The aggregate amount of these payments cannot exceed
€83.2 million
(
$114.8 million
at
March 31, 2014
). The estimate of the fair value for the Twoo.com arrangement is based upon the Company's multi-scenario forecasts of Twoo.com's earnings for 2013, 2014 and 2015 and the number of users at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, and the Company's estimate of the probability of each scenario occurring. These multi-scenario forecasts and related probability assessments were based primarily on management's internal projections and strategic plans, with limited additional consideration given to growth trends of similarly situated businesses. The fair value of this arrangement is determined using a discount rate of
15%
.
The fair value 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, and changes are recognized in “General and administrative expense” in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The contingent consideration arrangement liability at
March 31, 2014
includes a current portion of
$8.0 million
and non-current portion of
$40.8 million
, which are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities,” respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
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.
Cost method investments
At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the carrying values of the Company's investments accounted for under the cost method totaled
$144.8 million
and
$137.3 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.

There are additional covenants that limit our ability and the ability of our 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 restricting our subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends, enter into transactions with affiliates and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.
On December 21, 2012, the Company entered into a

December 31, 2013
, there are
no
outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. IAC's obligation under the revolving credit facility is unconditionally guaranteed by the same domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the 2013 and 2012 Senior Notes and is also secured by the stock of certain of our domestic and foreign subsidiaries.

If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs"). For the
three
months ended
March 31, 2014
, there are
no
securities that are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the
three
months ended
March 31, 2013
, approximately
3.4 million
shares related to potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
NOTE 8—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 "eCommerce" reportable segment, do not meet the quantitative thresholds that require presentation as separate operating segments.

The Company's primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as operating income consisting of: (1) non-cash compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and goodwill and intangible asset impairments 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. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable U.S. GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence, financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure.
The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to operating income (loss) for the Company's reportable segments:

NOTE 9—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 10—GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
GENERAL
Management Overview
IAC is a leading media and Internet company comprised of more than 150 brands and products, including Ask.com, About.com, Match.com, HomeAdvisor and Vimeo. Focused on the areas of search, applications, online dating, media and eCommerce, IAC's family of websites is one of the largest in the world, with over a billion monthly visits across more than 100 countries.
During the first quarter of 2014, IAC realigned its reportable segments as follows:
•
The Company created a new segment called "The Match Group" that includes Match, which was previously reported as its own separate segment, and DailyBurn and Tutor, which were previously in the Media and Other segments, respectively.
•
The businesses within the Local segment, HomeAdvisor, Felix and, for periods prior to July 1, 2013, CityGrid Media, were moved to the eCommerce segment, formerly called the Other segment.
•
There were no changes to the Search & Applications segment.
In addition, the Company introduced Adjusted EBITDA, a new non-GAAP financial measure, beginning with the first quarter of 2014. Going forward, the Company plans to regularly report Adjusted EBITDA and will no longer report Operating Income Before Amortization. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure 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.
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, 2013.

Search & Applications revenue was flat year-over-year, reflecting growth from Websites (which includes Ask.com, About.com, CityGrid Media, Dictionary.com, Investopedia.com and PriceRunner.com), which was entirely offset by decreased revenue at Applications (which includes our direct to consumer downloadable applications operations (B2C) and our partnership operations (B2B)). Websites revenue grew 8% to $203.7 million due to the acquisition of the ValueClick "Owned & Operated" ("O&O") website businesses on January 10, 2014, the contribution of CityGrid Media, which had been moved from the eCommerce segment to the Search & Applications segment, effective July 1, 2013, and growth from About.com, partially offset by a year-over-year decline in revenue at Ask.com. Applications revenue decreased 7% to $194.3 million, despite query growth from our B2C operations, primarily due to lower queries from our B2B operations.
The Match Group revenue increased
9%
to
$211.2 million
driven by a 9% increase in Dating revenue. Dating North America revenue (which includes Match.com, Chemistry, People Media, OkCupid and other dating businesses operating within the United States and Canada) and Dating International revenue (which includes all dating businesses operating outside of the
27
United States and Canada) increased 7% to $134.5 million and 12% to $70.5 million, respectively. Non-dating revenue (consisting of DailyBurn and Tutor) increased 53%. The growth in revenue was driven by increased subscribers across the segment. Dating North America and Dating International paid subscribers increased 11% and 10%, respectively.
Media revenue decreased
19%
to
$36.4 million
primarily due to the impact of the closure of the Newsweek print business and the sale of the Newsweek digital business in August 2013, partially offset by continued growth at Vimeo.
eCommerce revenue decreased
12%
to
$94.8 million
primarily due to the move of CityGrid Media from the eCommerce segment to the Search & Applications segment, partially offset by an increase from HomeAdvisor.
A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is derived from online advertising. Most of the Company's online advertising revenue is attributable to our services agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"), which expires on March 31, 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenue earned from Google is
$355.6 million
and
$376.1 million
, respectively. This revenue is earned by the businesses comprising the Search & Applications segment.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs, which consist of payments made to partners who distribute our B2B customized browser-based applications, integrate our paid listings into their websites or direct traffic to our websites. These payments include amounts based on revenue share and other arrangements. Cost of revenue also includes Shoebuy's cost of products sold and shipping and handling costs, production costs related to media produced by Electus and other businesses within our Media segment, content acquisition costs, expenses associated with the operation of the Company's data centers, including compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in data center functions, rent, energy and bandwidth costs.
Cost of revenue in 2014 decreased from 2013 primarily due to decreases of $37.3 million from Search & Applications, $7.9 million from eCommerce and $5.5 million from Media, partially offset by an increase of $4.8 million from The Match Group. Cost of revenue from Search & Applications decreased primarily due to a decrease of $43.4 million in traffic acquisition costs driven primarily by lower revenue from our B2B operations and Ask.com, partially offset by the acquisition of the ValueClick O&O website businesses and the move of CityGrid Media to the Search & Applications segment. The decrease in cost of revenue from eCommerce was primarily due to the move of CityGrid Media to the Search & Applications segment. Cost of revenue from Media decreased primarily due to lower production costs at Electus resulting from a corresponding decrease in revenue. The increase in cost of revenue from The Match Group is primarily due to an increase in customer acquisition costs.

Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of advertising and promotional expenditures and compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in sales, sales support and customer service functions. Advertising and promotional expenditures include online marketing, including fees paid to search engines and third parties that distribute our B2C downloadable applications, and offline marketing, which is primarily television advertising.
Selling and marketing expense in 2014 increased from 2013 primarily due to increases of $47.0 million from Search & Applications and $13.6 million from The Match Group, partially offset by a decrease of $4.7 million from eCommerce. Selling and marketing expense from Search & Applications increased primarily due to a $43.7 million increase in online marketing
28
spend, which was primarily related to our B2C downloadable applications, and the acquisition of the ValueClick O&O website businesses. The increase in selling and marketing expense from The Match Group was primarily due to an increase of $13.9 million in both offline and online marketing spend at Dating and DailyBurn. Selling and marketing expense from eCommerce decreased primarily due to the move of CityGrid Media to the Search & Applications segment.

General and administrative expense in 2014 decreased from 2013 primarily due to decreases of $2.4 million from eCommerce, $1.6 million from The Match Group and $1.2 million from Media, partially offset by an increase of $4.1 million from Search & Applications. General and administrative expense from eCommerce decreased primarily due to the move of CityGrid Media to the Search & Applications segment. The decrease in general and administrative expense from The Match Group is primarily due to a $3.9 million benefit related to the expiration of the statute of limitations for a non-income tax matter and a decrease of $1.5 million in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments, partially offset by an increase in compensation and other employee-related costs at our Dating businesses due, in part, to an increase in headcount. General and administrative expense from Media decreased primarily due to the closure of the Newsweek print business and the sale of the Newsweek digital business, partially offset by an increase in compensation and other employee-related costs due to increased headcount at Vimeo.

The increase in selling and marketing expense is primarily due to an increase in online marketing spend related to our B2C downloadable applications. Partially offsetting the increase in selling and marketing expense is a decrease in cost of revenue, driven primarily by lower revenue from our B2B operations and Ask.com.
The Match Group Adjusted EBITDA decreased
1%
to
$47.4 million
, despite higher revenue noted above, primarily due to higher selling and marketing expense and cost of revenue. The increase in selling and marketing expense is primarily due to an increase in both offline and online marketing spend at Dating and DailyBurn. The increase in cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in customer acquisition costs. Partially offsetting these increases is a $3.9 million benefit related to the expiration of the statute of limitations for a non-income tax matter.
Media Adjusted EBITDA loss increased
27%
to a loss of
$7.9 million
primarily due to the favorable effect in the prior year period of certain items related to the Newsweek print closure.

Refer to Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to operating income (loss) by reportable segment.
Operating income in 2014 decreased from 2013 primarily due to the decrease of
$18.7 million
in Adjusted EBITDA described above, partially offset by decreases of $3.0 million in non-cash compensation expense, $2.1 million in amortization
30
of intangibles and $1.5 million in acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments. The decrease in non-cash compensation expense is primarily the result of an increase in forfeited awards in the current year. The decrease in amortization of intangibles is primarily related to lower amortization expense at The Match Group due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.
At March 31, 2014, there was $115.5 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 2.2 years.

$(25,746)
In 2014, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of
$21.4 million
, which represents an effective income tax rate of
38%
. The 2014 effective rate is higher than the statutory rate of
35%
due primarily to interest on reserves for income tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. In 2013, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of
$25.7 million
, which represents an effective income
31
tax rate of
33%
. The 2013 effective rate is lower than the statutory rate of
35%
due primarily to foreign income taxed at lower rates and research credits, partially offset by state taxes.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax provision. Included in the income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
is a
$1.6 million
and a
$0.8 million
expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the
three months ended
March 31, 2013
is a
$1.3 million
and a
$1.0 million
expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company has accrued
$137.0 million
and
$133.0 million
, respectively, for the payment of interest. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company has accrued
$5.3 million
and
$5.1 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. Various jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are France, California, New York and New York City for various tax years beginning with 2006. 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 the 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.
On August 28, 2013, the Joint Committee of Taxation completed its review and approved the audit settlement previously agreed to with the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended December 2001 through 2009. The statute of limitations for the years 2001 through 2009 expires on July 1, 2014. At
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $274.9 million and $275.8 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits at
March 31, 2014
decreased $0.9 million from
December 31, 2013
due principally to deductible timing differences. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease within twelve months of the current reporting date. An estimate of changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2014, the Company had
$1.0 billion
of cash and cash equivalents,
$39.5 million
of marketable securities, and
$1.1 billion
of long-term debt. Domestically, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA rated money market funds and commercial paper rated A2/P2 or better. Internationally, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA rated money market funds and time deposits. Marketable securities consist of short-to-medium-term debt securities issued by investment grade corporate issuers and equity securities. 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. Long-term debt is comprised of
$500 million
in 2013 Senior Notes due November 30, 2018,
$500 million
in 2012 Senior Notes due December 15, 2022 and
$80 million
in Liberty Bonds due September 1, 2035.
At March 31, 2014, $327.2 million of the
$1.0 billion
of cash and cash equivalents was held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries. If needed for our operations in the U.S., most of the cash and cash equivalents held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated to the U.S. but, under current law, would be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. We have not provided for any such tax; however, 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.
In summary, the Company's cash flows attributable to continuing operations are as follows:

(128,568)
(52,144)
Net cash used in financing activities
(12,822)
(113,897)
Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations consists of earnings or loss from continuing operations adjusted for non-cash items, including non-cash compensation expense, depreciation, amortization of intangibles, asset impairment charges, excess tax benefits from stock-based awards, deferred income taxes, equity in earnings or losses of unconsolidated affiliates, acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments, and the effect of changes in working capital activities. Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations in 2014 consists of earnings from continuing operations of
$34.3 million
, adjustments for non-cash items of
$20.9 million
, and cash used in working capital activities of
$12.5 million
. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consist of
$14.8 million
of depreciation,
$12.0 million
of amortization of intangibles,
$9.6 million
of non-cash compensation expense, partially offset by
$24.2 million
of excess tax benefits from stock-based awards. The decrease in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily consists of an increase in accounts receivable of
$20.4 million
and a decrease of
$11.7 million
in accounts payable and other current liabilities, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of
$16.9 million
and an increase in income taxes payable of
$6.7 million
. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to our services agreement with Google and is due to an increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the fourth quarter of 2013. The related receivable from Google was
$128.0 million
and
$112.3 million
at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The increase in accounts receivable was also impacted by growth in revenue at our HomeAdvisor business. The decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities is due to a decrease in accrued employee compensation and benefits, accrued revenue share, and in payables to suppliers at Shoebuy, partially offset by an increase in accrued advertising expense at Search & Applications and The Match Group. The decrease in accrued employee compensation and benefits is due to the payment of 2013 cash bonuses in 2014. The increase in deferred revenue is primarily due to growth in subscription revenue at The Match Group and Vimeo. The increase in income taxes payable is due to current year income tax accruals in excess of current year income tax payments.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2014 includes cash consideration used in acquisitions and investments of
$85.8 million
, which includes the acquisition of the ValueClick O&O website businesses, the purchase of marketable debt securities of
$32.8 million
and capital expenditures of
$9.7 million
, primarily related to the internal development of software to support our products and services.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2014 includes
$30.0 million
for the purchase of noncontrolling interests and
$20.0 million
related to the payment of cash dividends to IAC shareholders, partially offset by
33
excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of
$24.2 million
and the return of
$12.4 million
of funds held in escrow related to the Meetic tender offer.
Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations in 2013 consists of earnings from continuing operations of
$52.7 million
, adjustments for non-cash items of
$22.2 million
and cash provided by working capital activities of
$17.5 million
. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consists of
$14.1 million
of amortization of intangibles,
$14.0 million
of depreciation,
$12.7 million
of non-cash compensation expense, partially offset by
$12.5 million
of excess tax benefits from stock-based awards and
$11.0 million
of deferred income taxes. The deferred income tax benefit primarily relates to the difference in timing between the accrual and payment of cash bonuses. The increase in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily consists of an increase of
$35.2 million
in income taxes payable and an increase of
$7.8 million
in deferred revenue, partially offset by a decrease of
$12.9 million
in accounts payable and other current liabilities, an increase of
$8.0 million
in other current assets and an increase of
$4.6 million
in accounts receivable. The increase in income taxes payable is due to current year income tax accruals in excess of current year income tax payments. The increase in deferred revenue is primarily due to growth in subscription revenue at Dating, as well as growth at Electus and Vimeo, partially offset by a $9.9 million decrease in deferred revenue at Newsweek due to its transition to a digital only publication. The decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities is due to a decrease in accrued advertising expense primarily at Search & Applications, Newsweek's transition to a digital only publication, and a decrease in payables to suppliers at Shoebuy, partially offset by an increase in accrued revenue share expense primarily at Search & Applications and an increase in accrued employee compensation and benefits due to the timing of bonus payments. The increase in other current assets is primarily due to an increase in short-term production costs at Electus that are capitalized while the television program, video or film is being produced. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to our services agreement with Google and is due to an increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. The related receivable from Google was $137.0 million and $125.3 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Electus' accounts receivable also increased due to higher revenue. These increases were partially offset by a $13.5 million decrease in accounts receivable at Newsweek due to its transition to a digital only publication.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2013 includes capital expenditures of
$33.6 million
, which includes
$23.1 million
related to the purchase of a 50% ownership interest in an aircraft, and cash consideration used in acquisitions and investments of
$30.2 million
primarily related to the acquisition of Twoo, partially offset by net maturities and sales of marketable debt securities of
$12.5 million
.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2013 includes
$88.6 million
for the repurchase of 1.4 million shares of common stock at an average price of $42.96 per share,
$21.4 million
related to the payment of cash dividends to IAC shareholders and
$15.8 million
for the payment of our 2002 Senior Notes, which matured on January 15, 2013, partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of
$12.5 million
.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities and cash flows generated from operations. The Company has a $300.0 million revolving credit facility, which expires on December 21, 2017, and is available as an additional source of financing. At March 31, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
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 2014 capital expenditures will be lower than 2013. At March 31, 2014, IAC had 8.6 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. On April 30, 2014, IAC declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per share of common and Class B common stock outstanding payable on June 1, 2014 to stockholders of record on May 15, 2014. Future declarations of dividends are subject to the determination of IAC's Board of Directors.
The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, together with its expected positive cash flows generated from operations and available borrowing capacity under its $300 million revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to fund its normal operating requirements, including capital expenditures, share repurchases, quarterly cash dividends, and investing and other commitments for the foreseeable future. Our liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for our products and services. The Company may make acquisitions and investments that could reduce its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances and as a result, the Company may need to raise additional capital through future
34
debt or equity financing to provide for greater financial flexibility. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to us.
35
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMERICAL COMMITMENTS
At March 31, 2014, 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, 2013.

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 U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable U.S. 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 U.S. GAAP and non-GAAP measure, which we discuss below.
Definition of IAC's Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income excluding: (1) non-cash compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3)acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and goodwill and intangible asset impairments 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
Non-cash 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 which, for stock options and RSUs are included on a treasury method basis, and for performance-based RSUs are included on a treasury method basis once the performance conditions are met. 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.
Amortization of intangible assets and goodwill and intangible asset impairments
are non-cash expenses relating primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as content, technology, customer lists, advertiser and supplier relationships, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. While it is likely that we will have significant intangible amortization expense as we continue to acquire companies, we believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.
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.
37
RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA
For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to operating income (loss) by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
At March 31, 2014, 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, 2013.
39
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 the Chairman and Senior Executive and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the Chairman and Senior Executive and the Chief Financial Officer 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.
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of IAC management, including the Chairman and Senior Executive and the Chief Financial Officer, also evaluated whether any changes occurred 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, such control. Based on that evaluation, the Company concluded that there has been no such change during the period covered by this report.

These forward-looking statements are based on IAC management's current expectations and assumptions about future events, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.
Actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others: changes in senior management at IAC and/or its businesses, changes in our relationship with, or policies implemented by, Google, adverse changes in economic conditions, either generally or in any of the markets or industries in which IAC's businesses operate, adverse trends in the online advertising industry or the advertising industry generally, our ability to convert visitors to our various websites into users and customers, our ability to offer new or alternative products and services in a cost-effective manner and consumer acceptance of these products and services, changes in industry standards and technology, actual tax liabilities that differ materially from our estimates, operational and financial risks relating to acquisitions, our ability to expand successfully into international markets and regulatory changes. Certain of these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in IAC's filings with the SEC, including in Part I "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Other unknown or unpredictable factors that could also adversely affect IAC's business, financial condition and operating results may arise from time to time. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report may not prove to be accurate.
