The Registrant hereby amends in its entirety Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 4. Controls and Procedures contained in IAC/InterActiveCorp's (the "Company") Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2011 (the "Original Form 10-Q"), as described below. On January 27, 2012, management and the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company concluded that an error existed in the Company's previously issued financial statements relating to accounting for a deferred income tax liability that requires correction. During 2011, the Company undertook an analysis of the tax basis of certain businesses in connection with a review of its organizational structure. As a result of this review, the Company determined that the original deferred income tax provision recorded in 2002 in connection with a series of transactions, which included the exchange of certain of the Company's media businesses for certain other assets, was incorrectly calculated and incorrectly allocated to a former subsidiary. The correction of these errors as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 increased non-current deferred income tax liabilities and reduced shareholders' equity by $380.9 million. There is also a reclassification of non-current deferred income tax assets of $169.5 million and $110.5 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, which is required because non-current deferred income tax assets and liabilities of the same tax jurisdiction must be presented on the consolidated balance sheet on a net basis. Correcting these errors has no impact on the Company's consolidated statement of operations or consolidated statement of cash flows.
This Amendment reflects the changes described above. No other information included in the Original Form 10-Q has been amended by this Form 10-Q/A to reflect any information or events subsequent to the filing of the Original Form 10-Q.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
IAC operates more than 50 leading and diversified Internet businesses across 30 countries...our mission is to harness the power of interactivity to make daily life easier and more productive for people all over the world. IAC includes the businesses comprising its Search segment; its Match and ServiceMagic segments; the businesses comprising its Media & Other segment; as well as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
All references to "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp.
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, whether through voting interests or variable interests. The Company's consolidated financial statements include one variable interest entity, in which the Company has a controlling financial interest through voting rights and is also the primary beneficiary. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Investments in 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 ("SEC"). 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, 2010.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 have been reclassified to present Evite, Gifts.com, IAC Advertising Solutions and InstantAction, all of which were previously reported in IAC's Media & Other segment, as discontinued operations. In addition, certain other prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual amounts could differ materially 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, 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 and other revenue related allowances, the reserves for income tax contingencies and the valuation allowances 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.
Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements
We have restated our consolidated financial statements as described in Note 14RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
Certain Risks and Concentrations
A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is attributable to online advertising, the market for which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant changes in this industry or changes in customer buying behavior or advertiser spending behavior could adversely affect our operating results. Most of the Company's online advertising revenue is attributable to a paid listing supply agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"), which expires on March 31, 2016. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, revenue earned from Google was $242.9 million and $679.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, revenue earned from Google was $176.8 million and $522.6 million, respectively. The majority of this revenue was earned by the businesses comprising the Search segment. Accounts receivable related to revenue earned from Google totaled $85.7 million at September 30, 2011 and $70.5 million at December 31, 2010.

The amount of unrealized gains and losses reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings, as a component of other income, net, is based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains, net of tax, reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into other income, net related to the maturities and sales of available-for-sale securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $0.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Unrealized gains, net of tax, reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into other income, net related to the maturities and sales of available-for-sale securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $0.2 million and $2.9 million, respectively.
NOTE 3INCOME TAXES
At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective 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 effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, or judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
The computation of the annual expected effective 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
9
IAC/INTERACTIVECORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3INCOME TAXES (Continued)
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 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. Included in the income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2011 is a benefit of $2.0 million due to a lower estimated annual effective tax rate from that applied to ordinary income from continuing operations through the six months ended June 30, 2011. The lower estimated annual effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in foreign income taxed at lower rates.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $32.0 million and $6.4 million, respectively, despite pre-tax income of $36.0 million and $127.3 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2011 is due principally to the release of a previously established deferred tax liability of $43.6 million in connection with the acquisition of Meetic. The Company concluded that it intends to permanently reinvest outside the United States the earnings of Match's international operations related to Meetic, including the 2009 gain on the sale of Match Europe. This income tax benefit was partially offset by the nondeductible nature of the mark-to-market loss on Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic that was recorded upon achieving control. The income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is due principally to the release of previously established deferred tax liabilities, foreign income taxed at lower rates, and the reduction in state tax accruals resulting from income tax provision to tax return reconciliations and expirations of statutes of limitations, partially offset by interest on tax contingencies, states taxes, and the nondeductible nature of the mark-to-market loss on Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic that was recorded upon achieving control.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $15.5 million and $27.0 million, respectively, which represent effective tax rates of 41% and 54%, respectively. The tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010 is higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state taxes and interest on tax contingencies, partially offset by the reversal of a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to an unconsolidated affiliate and foreign income taxed at lower rates. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 is higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to interest on tax contingencies, a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by the impairment charge for an investment accounted for using the equity method, and state taxes, partially offset by foreign tax credits and the reversal of a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to an unconsolidated affiliate.
At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, are $481.0 million and $487.6 million, respectively. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2011, $467.9 million is included in "non-current income taxes payable," $12.3 million relates to deferred tax assets included in "other non-current assets" and $0.8 million is included in "accrued expenses and other current liabilities." Included in unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2011 is $92.0 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 September 30, 2011 are subsequently recognized, $101.4 million and $212.6 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations, respectively. In addition, a continuing operations income tax provision of $4.5 million would be

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3INCOME TAXES (Continued)
required upon the subsequent recognition of unrecognized tax benefits for an increase in the Company's valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax provision. Included in income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011 is a $2.2 million benefit and a $1.9 million expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes of $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. Included in income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is a $2.8 million expense and a $5.2 million expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes of $1.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $111.0 million and $97.7 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $4.5 million and $5.0 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 ("IRS") has completed its review of the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2006. The settlement has not yet been submitted to the Joint Committee of Taxation for approval. The IRS began its review of the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2007 through 2009 in July 2011. The statute of limitations for the years 2001 through 2007 has been extended to December 31, 2012. Various state and local jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are California, New York and New York City for various tax years beginning with 2003. 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 issues raised in 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. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $53.4 million within twelve months of the current reporting date, of which approximately $8.1 million could decrease income tax provision, primarily due to settlements, expirations of statutes of limitations, and the reversal of deductible temporary differences that will primarily result in a corresponding decrease in net deferred tax assets. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.
NOTE 4BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Meetic Acquisition
In 2009, Match acquired a 27% ownership interest in Meetic, a European online dating company based in France. Match accounted for this interest under the equity method of accounting. During the third quarter of 2011, pursuant to its previously announced tender offer, Match acquired an additional 12.5 million shares of Meetic for $272.0 million in cash. These additional shares increased Match's voting interest and ownership interest in Meetic to 79% and 81%, respectively, resulting in Match obtaining a controlling financial interest in Meetic. Accordingly, this purchase was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and the financial results of Meetic are included within IAC's

consolidated financial statements and the Match operating segment beginning September 1, 2011. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company included $11.1 million of revenue, net of a $9.6 million write-off of deferred revenue, and a net loss of $5.9 million in its consolidated statement of operations related to Meetic.
In connection with the acquisition, Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic was reduced to its fair value of $132.7 million, resulting in a loss of $11.7 million, which is included within "Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Included in this loss is $3.2 million of foreign currency translation gains, which were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into earnings. Additionally, Match measured and recorded the acquisition-date fair value of the 19% noncontrolling interests in Meetic, which totaled $101.5 million. The fair values of the 27% equity method investment and the noncontrolling interests were based on the tender offer price of €15.00 per share.
Meetic's fair value at the date of acquisition consists of the following components:

The Company's purchase of the additional 54% interest in Meetic resulted in a significant portion of the purchase price being allocated to goodwill. The value of Meetic is its ability to generate revenue and cash flow in the future. Meetic's business model is similar to Match's businesses and we believe increasing our ownership stake allows us to leverage Match's skill in product development, marketing

Meetic's other current assets, property and equipment, other assets, current liabilities and other liabilities were reviewed and adjusted to their fair values at the date of acquisition, as necessary. The current deferred tax asset primarily relates to the excess of tax basis over book basis on deferred revenue, which was recorded at fair value in conjunction with the acquisition. The fair value of the trade names was determined using an avoided royalty discounted cash flow analysis. Customer lists includes both paid subscribers and registered users who are not paid subscribers. The fair value relating to the paid subscribers was determined using an excess earnings methodology and the fair value relating to the registered users who are not paid subscribers was determined using a cost methodology. The fair value of the developed technology was determined using replacement cost methodology. The valuations of the intangible assets incorporate significant unobservable inputs and require estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows, royalty rates and discount rates. The non-current deferred tax liabilities primarily relate to the excess of book basis over tax basis on acquired intangible assets. None of the goodwill is tax deductible.

OkCupid Acquisition
On January 20, 2011, Match acquired OkCupid for $50.0 million in cash, plus potential additional consideration of up to $40.0 million that was contingent upon OkCupid's 2011 earnings performance. During the second quarter of 2011, the provisions of this contingent consideration arrangement were amended. Pursuant to the amendment, $30.0 million was paid to the former owners of OkCupid, and a potential additional payment of up to $10.0 million is contingent upon revised performance goals. The fair value of the contingent consideration at September 30, 2011 is $10.0 million and is included in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using its judgment of the likelihood of achieving the revised performance goals, which incorporates significant unobservable inputs.

There are no gains or losses included in earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, relating to the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs.
Auction rate securities
The Company's auction rate securities are valued by discounting the estimated future cash flow streams of the securities over the lives of the securities. Credit spreads and other risk factors are also considered in establishing fair value. During the first quarter of 2011, one of the auction rate securities was redeemed at its par value of $5.0 million. The cost basis of the auction rate securities is $10.0 million and $15.0 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, with gross unrealized losses of $4.1 million and $1.9 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The unrealized losses are included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2011, the remaining 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 September 30, 2011, 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 recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity.
Long-term marketable equity securities
The cost basis of the long-term marketable equity securities at September 30, 2011 was $48.9 million, with gross unrealized gains of $34.5 million and a gross unrealized loss of $4.7 million, included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Because of the short duration of the loss, the Company does not consider this security to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011.
Contingent consideration arrangement

NOTE 7FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
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 measured at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded an $18.3 million impairment charge to write-down an investment accounted for using the equity method to fair value. The decline in value was determined to be other-than-temporary due to the investee's continued losses and negative operating cash flows. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment using a multiple of revenue approach. The impairment charge is included within "Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of notes receivable is based on discounting the expected future cash flow streams using yields of the underlying credit. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated using quoted market prices or indices for similar liabilities and taking into consideration other factors such as credit quality and maturity. The carrying value and fair value of the guarantee of the equity method investee's debt represents the amount the Company expects to pay to settle this obligation. The fair value of the letters of credit and surety bond are based on the present value of the costs associated with maintaining these instruments over their expected term. See Note 6 for discussion of the fair value of marketable securities, Note 7 for discussion of the fair value of the auction rate securities and long-term marketable equity securities and Note 4 for discussion of the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement.

NOTE 8FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying values of the Company's investments accounted for under the cost method totaled $81.2 million and $39.0 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.

NOTE 10SEGMENT 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 and executive management view 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. Entities included in discontinued operations are excluded from the tables below. 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 Media & Other, do not meet the quantitative thresholds that require presentation as separate operating segments.

The Company's primary metric is Operating Income Before Amortization, which is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (3) goodwill impairment, and (4) one-time items. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because it represents the operating results from IAC's segments, taking into account depreciation, which it believes is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Operating Income Before Amortization has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation and acquisition related accounting. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-U.S. 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-U.S. GAAP measure.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 11CONTINGENCIES
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 tax contingencies, to assess the probability 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 3 for additional information related to income tax contingencies.
NOTE 12SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
During 2010, IAC received a dividend of $11.4 million from Meetic, which the Company deemed to be a partial return of its investment. Accordingly, the dividend is reflected as a cash flow from an investing activity in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows.
Non-Cash Transactions for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
On February 8, 2011, in connection with the tax-free exchange with Liberty Media Corporation in the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company received 0.1 million shares of IAC common stock, valued at $2.9 million, in fulfillment of post-closing working capital adjustments.
On January 31, 2011, IAC contributed The Daily Beast, previously reported in IAC's Media & Other segment, to a newly formed venture with Harman Newsweek called The Newsweek/Daily Beast Company. IAC and Harman Newsweek operate The Newsweek/Daily Beast Company jointly. IAC accounts for its interest in The Newsweek/Daily Beast Company under the equity method.
The consideration for the acquisition of OkCupid on January 20, 2011 includes a contingent consideration arrangement which is described in Note 4.
Non-Cash Transactions for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
On March 10, 2010, Match and Meetic completed a transaction in which Match contributed its Latin American business ("Match Latam") and Meetic contributed its Latin American business ("Parperfeito") to a newly formed venture. These contributions, along with a $3.0 million payment from Match to Meetic, resulted in each party owning a 50% equity interest in the newly formed venture, which was valued at $72 million. No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the fair value of the consideration received by Match equaled the fair value of the assets exchanged.
NOTE 13SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On November 2, 2011, IAC's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common and Class B common stock outstanding to be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 15, 2011, with a payment date of December 1, 2011. Based on the

NOTE 14RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Restatement of Prior Period Consolidated Financial Statements
The September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 consolidated balance sheets have been restated to correct the deferred income tax liability relating to a gain recorded in 2002 in connection with a series of transactions, which included the exchange of certain of the Company's media businesses for certain other assets, and the subsequent incorrect allocation of a portion of the deferred income taxes that were recorded in 2002 to a former subsidiary. These errors were identified during an analysis of the tax basis of certain businesses in connection with a 2011 review of the Company's organizational structure. Accordingly, the Company has restated the financial statements referenced above to correct these errors. The correction of these errors as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 increased non-current deferred income tax liabilities and reduced shareholders' equity by $380.9 million. Reclassifications of certain other deferred income tax balances as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 have also been recorded. Correcting these errors has no impact on the Company's consolidated statement of operations or consolidated statement of cash flows.

Revenue |
$ | 516,884 | 25% | $ | 412,966 |
Revenue in 2011 increased $103.9 million from 2010 primarily as a result of revenue increases of $68.3 million from Search, $26.1 million from Match, $6.7 million from ServiceMagic and $2.4 million from Media & Other. The increase in revenue from Search reflects strong growth from Mindspark's B2B operations and destination websites as well as growth from Mindspark's B2C operations and CityGrid Media. The increase in revenue from Match reflects growth from its Core operations (consisting of Match.com U.S., People Media and Chemistry.com) as well as from the impact of Meetic, consolidated beginning September 1, 2011, and OkCupid, acquired January 20, 2011. The increase in revenue from ServiceMagic came from growth in both its domestic and international operations. The increase in revenue from Media & Other was driven by growth at Shoebuy, Electus, Vimeo and CollegeHumor, partially offset by a decline at Pronto.
A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is attributable to online advertising. Most of the Company's online advertising revenue is attributable to a paid listing supply agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"), which expires on March 31, 2016. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, revenue earned from Google was $242.9 million and $176.8 million, respectively. The majority of this revenue was earned by the businesses comprising the Search segment.

Revenue in 2011 increased $277.1 million from 2010 primarily as a result of revenue increases of $173.2 million from Search, $67.9 million from Match, $18.3 million from Media & Other and $17.3 million from ServiceMagic. The increases in revenue from these businesses are primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. The revenue from Media & Other was also impacted by a decrease in revenue from The Daily Beast which, following the formation of The Newsweek/Daily Beast Company joint venture with Harman Newsweek on January 31, 2011, has been accounted for as an equity method investment and the inclusion in 2010 of revenue associated with profit participations related to our former interest in Reveille.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, revenue earned from Google was $679.1 million and $522.6 million, respectively.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs consist of payments made to partners who distribute Mindspark's 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, as well as 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, and content acquisition costs.
Cost of revenue in 2011 increased $40.7 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $32.6 million from Search and $3.9 million from Media & Other. The increase in cost of revenue from Search was primarily due to an increase of $29.2 million in traffic acquisition costs related to the increase in revenue. Cost of revenue from Media & Other increased primarily due to an increase of $1.4 million in the cost of products sold at Shoebuy resulting from increased sales. Also contributing to the increase in cost of sales from Media & Other are increases from Electus and Vimeo, partially offset by a decrease from The Daily Beast, which has been accounted for as an equity method investment since January 31, 2011 as described above.

The increase in cost of revenue from both Search and Media & Other are primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. As a percentage of revenue, traffic acquisition costs at Search increased over the prior year

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 Mindspark's downloadable applications, and offline marketing, principally television and radio advertising.
Selling and marketing expense in 2011 increased $34.5 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $17.6 million from Search, $13.0 million from Match and $5.0 million from ServiceMagic. The increase in selling and marketing expense from Search is due to an increase of $17.8 million in advertising and promotional expenditures due to increased online marketing related to its destination websites and new product launches at Mindspark since the year ago period. Selling and marketing expense at Match increased primarily due to the acquisition of Meetic and an increase in offline marketing associated with the OurTime.com website. The increase in selling and marketing expense from ServiceMagic is primarily due to an increase of $5.5 million in advertising and promotional expenditures associated with online marketing.

Selling and marketing expense in 2011 increased $59.3 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $29.0 million from Search and $27.8 million from Match. The increase in selling and marketing expense from Search is primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion, partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense at CityGrid Media. The increase in selling and marketing expense from Match is due to an increase of $20.3 million in advertising and promotional expenditures primarily related to an increase in offline marketing due to the factors described above in the three month discussion, as well as an increase in online advertising spend associated with an agreement entered into during the second quarter of 2010 with Yahoo!. Selling and marketing expense from Match in 2011 was further impacted by the acquisition of Meetic. As a percentage of revenue selling and marketing expense decreased from 2010 primarily due to an increase in the proportion of revenue that results in the payment of traffic acquisition costs.

General and administrative expense consists primarily of compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax and human resources, facilities costs and fees for professional services.
General and administrative expense in 2011 increased $9.9 million from 2010; however, as a percentage of revenue general and administrative expense decreased primarily due to operating expense leverage. The increase in general and administrative expense was due to an increase of $7.7 million from Match which resulted primarily from the acquisition of Meetic, as well as an increase in professional fees due, in part, to $2.5 million in transaction fees associated with the Meetic acquisition, and operating expenses from OkCupid, which was not in the prior year period.

General and administrative expense in 2011 increased $17.8 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $10.1 million from Match and $7.2 million from corporate. The increase in general and administrative expense from Match is primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. General and administrative expense from corporate increased primarily due to higher compensation and other employee-related costs including an increase of $4.5 million in non-cash compensation expense related to equity grants issued subsequent to the third quarter of 2010, the reassessment made in the fourth quarter of 2010 of the number of performance based restricted stock units that will ultimately vest and the impact of the cancellation and acceleration of certain equity awards during the second and third quarters of 2011, respectively. As a percentage of revenue general and administrative expense decreased from 2010 primarily due to operating expense leverage.

Product development expense in 2011 increased $10.5 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $4.2 million from Match and $2.2 million from Search. The increase in product development expense from Match is primarily due to the factor described above in the three month discussion. Contributing to the increase in product development expense at Search is a decrease in costs being capitalized in the current year period, partially offset by lower compensation and other employee-related costs due, in part, to staff reductions that took place during the fourth quarter of 2010.

Operating Income Before Amortization in 2011 increased $76.4 million from 2010 primarily due to increases of $53.0 million from Search and $24.3 million from Match. The increase in Operating Income Before Amortization from Search is primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. The increase in Operating Income Before Amortization from Match is primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by increased advertising and promotional expenditures and general and administrative expense.

Operating income in 2011 increased $9.1 million from 2010 primarily due to an increase of $17.1 million in Operating Income Before Amortization described above, partially offset by increases of $5.8 million in non-cash compensation expense and $2.2 million in amortization of intangibles. The increase in non-cash compensation expense is primarily related to equity grants issued subsequent to the third quarter of 2010, the reassessment made in the fourth quarter of 2010 of the number of performance based restricted stock units that will ultimately vest and the acceleration of certain equity awards during the third quarter of 2011. The increase in amortization of intangibles is principally due to the acquisition of Meetic.
At September 30, 2011, there was $134.7 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.

The increase in non-cash compensation expense is primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion as well as the impact of the cancellation of certain equity awards during the second quarter of 2011.

Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates in 2011 increased $14.5 million from 2010 primarily due to the inclusion of a loss of $11.7 million related to marking down the carrying value of Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic to fair value (i.e., the tender offer price of €15.00 per share) upon achieving control. Also contributing to the equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates is the inclusion in 2011 of losses related to the Company's investment in The Newsweek/Daily Beast Company, partially offset by earnings from our investment in Meetic through August 31, 2011.
Other income, net in 2011 increased $3.5 million from 2010 primarily due to a foreign currency exchange gain of $3.3 million related to the funds that were held in escrow for the Meetic tender offer.

Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates in 2011 decreased $1.5 million from 2010 primarily due to the inclusion in 2010 of an $18.3 million impairment charge to write-down one of the Company's equity method investments to fair value. Absent this impairment charge, equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates increased primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. The Company recognized a loss in the prior year period related to its investment in Meetic primarily due to the amortization of intangibles, which was required by purchase accounting rules.
Other income, net in 2011 increased $4.5 million from 2010 primarily due to $4.6 million in gains associated with certain non-income tax refunds related to Match Europe, which was sold in 2009, and the foreign currency exchange gain described above in the three month discussion, partially offset by the inclusion in 2010 of a gain of $4.0 million related to the sale of certain securities.

Income tax benefit (provision) |
$ | 32,003 | NM | $ | (15,516 | ) |
In 2011, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $32.0 million despite pre-tax income of $36.0 million. The income tax benefit is due principally to the release of a previously established deferred tax liability of $43.6 million in connection with the acquisition of Meetic. The Company concluded that it intends to permanently reinvest outside of the United States the earnings of Match's international operations related to Meetic, including the 2009 gain on sale of Match Europe. This income tax benefit was partially offset by the nondeductible nature of the mark-to-market loss on Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic that was recorded upon achieving control. In 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $15.5 million on pre-tax income of $38.0 million, which represents an effective tax rate of 41%. The 2010 tax rate is higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to state taxes and interest on tax contingencies, partially offset by the reversal of a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to an unconsolidated affiliate and foreign income taxed at lower rates.

Income tax benefit (provision) |
$ | 6,444 | NM | $ | (26,974 | ) |
In 2011, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $6.4 million despite pre-tax income of $127.3 million. The income tax benefit is due principally to the release of previously established deferred tax liabilities, foreign income taxed at lower rates, and the reduction in state tax accruals resulting from income tax provision to tax return reconciliations and expirations of statutes of limitations, partially offset by interest on tax contingencies, state taxes, and the nondeductible nature of the mark-to-market loss on Match's 27% equity method investment in Meetic that was recorded upon achieving control. In connection with the acquisition of Meetic, the Company concluded that it intends to permanently reinvest outside of the United States the earnings of Match's international operations related to Meetic, including the 2009 gain on sale of Match Europe, which resulted in a deferred tax liability release of $43.6 million. In 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $27.0 million on pre-tax income of $50.2 million, which represents an effective tax rate of 54%. The 2010 tax rate is higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to interest on tax contingencies, a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by the impairment charge for an investment accounted for using the equity method, and state taxes, partially offset by foreign tax credits and the reversal of a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to an unconsolidated affiliate.
At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $370.0 million and $389.9 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2011 decreased by $19.9 million from December 31, 2010 due principally to the reversal of state tax reserves to reflect income tax provision to tax return reconciliations, the expiration of statutes of limitations, and the receipt of favorable income tax rulings, as well as a net decrease in deductible temporary differences, partially offset by an increase in reserves related to transfer pricing issues. The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax
38
provision. Included in income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011 is a $2.2 million benefit and a $1.9 million expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes of $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. Included in income tax provision for continuing operations and discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is a $2.8 million expense and a $5.2 million expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes of $1.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $111.0 million and $97.7 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $4.5 million and $5.0 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 ("IRS") has completed its review of the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2006. The settlement has not yet been submitted to the Joint Committee of Taxation for approval. The IRS began its review of the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2007 through 2009 in July 2011. The statute of limitations for the years 2001 through 2007 has been extended to December 31, 2012. Various state and local jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are California, New York and New York City for various tax years beginning with 2003. 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 issues raised in 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. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $53.4 million within twelve months of the current reporting date, of which approximately $8.1 million could decrease income tax provision, primarily due to settlements, expirations of statutes of limitations, and the reversal of deductible temporary differences that will primarily result in a corresponding decrease in net deferred tax assets. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.

Recoverability of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Of the Company's nine reporting units with goodwill, IAC Search & Media and Shoebuy have fair values closest to their carrying values. The amount of goodwill of each of these two reporting units is $533.9 million and $21.7 million, respectively, at September 30, 2011. To illustrate the magnitude of potential impairment charges related to potential future changes in estimated fair values, had the estimated fair values of each of these two reporting units been hypothetically lower by 20% at October 1, 2010, the date of our most recent annual impairment assessment, the carrying values of IAC Search & Media and Shoebuy would have exceeded their fair values by approximately $9 million and $3 million, respectively. If operating results of these two businesses vary significantly from anticipated results, future, and in the case of IAC Search & Media, potentially material, impairments of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangible assets could occur.

Segment Results
In addition to the discussion of consolidated results above, the following is a discussion of the results of each segment.
Search
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010
Our Search segment includes Mindspark, a digital consumer products business consisting of our B2C operations, through which we develop, market and distribute downloadable applications, and our B2B operations, which provide customized browser-based applications for software and media companies; destination websites, including Ask.com and Dictionary.com, through which we provide search and additional services; and CityGrid Media, an online media company that aggregates and integrates local content and ads and distributes them to publishers across web and mobile platforms.
Revenue increased 33% to $273.3 million, reflecting strong growth from Mindspark's B2B operations and destination websites as well as growth from Mindspark's B2C operations and CityGrid Media. The revenue growth in Mindspark's B2B operations was driven by increased contribution from both existing and new partners. The increase in Mindspark's B2C revenue was driven primarily by new products launched since the year ago period. The revenue growth in destination websites reflects increased and more efficient marketing efforts as well as improved monetization. The increase in revenue at CityGrid Media primarily reflects growth from existing resellers and increased display advertising.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 57% to $45.8 million, benefiting from lower general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by an increase of $29.2 million in traffic acquisition costs, higher selling and marketing expense and an increase of $2.9 million in depreciation. General and administrative expense was flat compared to 2010; however as a percentage of revenue general and administrative expense decreased primarily due to operating expense leverage. The increase in traffic acquisition costs and selling and marketing expense are primarily due to an increase in revenue and advertising and promotional expenditures, respectively. The increase in advertising and promotional expenditures is primarily driven by increased online marketing related to our destination websites and new product launches at Mindspark since the year ago period. The increase in depreciation is primarily due to the write-off of $4.9 million in capitalized software costs associated with the planned exit from our direct sponsored listings business.
Operating income increased 56% to $45.0 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and a slight decrease in non-cash compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in amortization of intangibles.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 29% to $774.4 million, driven primarily by the factors described above in the three month discussion.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 57% to $145.8 million, benefiting from a decrease of $2.7 million in depreciation and lower selling and marketing expense and general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by increases of $82.8 million in traffic acquisition costs and $2.2 million in product development expense. The decrease in depreciation is due to the write-off of certain assets in the prior year period, as well as a decrease in depreciation in the current year period resulting from the write-off of certain capitalized software costs in the fourth quarter of 2010, partially offset by the write-off of $4.9 million in capitalized software costs described above in the three month discussion. As a percentage of revenue selling and marketing expense decreased primarily due to an increase in the proportion of revenue that results in the payment of
41
traffic acquisition costs; however, overall selling and marketing expense increased primarily due to an increase in advertising and promotional expenditures, partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense at CityGrid Media. The increase in advertising and promotional expenditures was driven primarily by the factors described above in the three month discussion. The lower general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenue and the increase in traffic acquisition costs are primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion. As a percentage of revenue, traffic acquisition costs increased over the prior year period due to an increase in the proportion of revenue from customized browser-based applications and other arrangements with third parties who direct traffic to our websites. The increase in product development expense is primarily due to a decrease in costs being capitalized in the current year period, partially offset by lower compensation and other employee-related costs due, in part, to staff reductions that took place during the fourth quarter of 2010.
Operating income increased 58% to $144.4 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and a slight decrease in non-cash compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $0.4 million in amortization of intangibles.
Match
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 25% to $132.3 million, benefiting from growth within its Core operations and the contribution of Meetic, which was consolidated beginning September 1, 2011. Core revenue increased 15% to $102.5 million driven by a 12% increase in subscribers. Meetic revenue of $11.1 million was negatively impacted by the write-off of $9.6 million of deferred revenue in connection with its acquisition. Developing, which consists of OkCupid, Singlesnet, mobile-only products and its non-Meetic international operations, increased revenue 8% to $18.7 million primarily due to display advertising revenue from the acquisition of OkCupid, which was not reflected in the prior year period, partially offset by lower subscription revenue from Singlesnet, as we continue to reduce marketing of this service. Excluding the results of Meetic, revenue grew 14% to $121.2 million.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 2% to $40.2 million, primarily due to the higher Core and Developing revenue noted above, partially offset by losses at Meetic resulting from the write-off of $9.6 million of deferred revenue in connection with its acquisition. Operating Income Before Amortization was further impacted by increases in selling and marketing expense and general and administrative expense. The increase in selling and marketing expense is due to an increase of $4.3 million in advertising and promotional expenditures primarily related to offline marketing associated with the OurTime.com website. General and administrative expense increased from 2010, primarily due to an increase in professional fees due, in part, to $2.5 million in transaction fees associated with the Meetic acquisition, as well as operating expenses from OkCupid, which was not in the prior year period.
Operating income decreased 4% to $36.7 million, despite the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above, due primarily to increases of $1.9 million in amortization of intangibles and $0.4 million in non-cash compensation expense. These increases are due to the Meetic acquisition.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 23% to $360.4 million benefiting from growth within its Core and Developing operations and the contribution of Meetic as described above in the three month discussion. Core revenue increased 18% to $293.4 million driven by an increase in subscribers. Developing revenue increased 26% to $55.9 million driven primarily from the acquisition in 2011 of OkCupid, as well as from Match's venture with Meetic in Latin America, which was not reflected in the full prior year period. Excluding the results of Meetic, revenue grew 19% to $349.3 million. Revenue in the prior year
42
period was negatively impacted by the write-off of $3.9 million in deferred revenue associated with the formation of our venture with Meetic in Latin America and the Singlesnet acquisition.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 29% to $107.5 million, driven primarily by the factors described above in the three month discussion. Selling and marketing expense was further impacted by an increase in advertising spend associated with an agreement entered into during the second quarter of 2010 with Yahoo!.
Operating income increased 31% to $101.1 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and a slight decrease in amortization of intangibles, partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million in non-cash compensation expense.
ServiceMagic
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 14% to $55.1 million, benefiting from growth in both its domestic and international operations. Domestically, revenue growth reflects a 9% increase in accepted service requests, which was driven by a 15% increase in service requests. ServiceMagic's international revenue growth reflects a 44% increase in accepted service requests, which was driven by a 43% increase in service requests and a 33% increase in service professionals. A service request can be transmitted to more than one service professional and is deemed accepted upon transmission.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 11% to $7.4 million, growing at a slower rate than revenue primarily due to higher domestic marketing expense as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by reduced losses internationally.
Operating income increased 13% to $7.0 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and a slight decrease in amortization of intangibles.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 12% to $157.5 million, driven primarily by the factors described above in the three month discussion. Domestically, revenue growth reflects a 9% increase in accepted service requests, which was driven, in part, by a 7% increase in service requests. Domestic growth also reflects an increase in revenue from website design and hosting services. ServiceMagic's international revenue growth reflects a 65% increase in accepted service requests, which was driven, in part, by a 63% increase in service requests.
Operating Income Before Amortization increased 29% to $20.2 million, primarily due to the higher revenue noted above and lower selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue. Operating Income Before Amortization in 2010 benefited from the reversal of a $2.5 million provision for contingent consideration related to the 2009 acquisition of Market Hardware, which was not earned.
Operating income increased 33% to $19.1 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and a slight decrease in amortization of intangibles.
Media & Other
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 4% to $56.4 million primarily reflecting growth at Shoebuy, Electus, Vimeo and CollegeHumor, partially offset by a decline at Pronto.
Operating Income Before Amortization loss increased by $1.1 million to a loss of $3.2 million. Losses increased primarily due to reduced profitability at Pronto due to lower revenue; increased
43
operating expenses at Electus; and Hatch Labs start up costs, which were not in the prior year period. Operating Income Before Amortization loss in 2010 included losses related to The Daily Beast, which, following the formation of the joint venture with Harman Newsweek on January 31, 2011, has been accounted for as an equity method investment.
Operating loss increased by $0.9 million to $3.7 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization loss described above, partially offset by a slight decrease in non-cash compensation expense.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010
Revenue increased 12% to $171.4 million primarily due to the factors described above in the three month discussion.

Corporate
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010
Operating Income Before Amortization loss was flat compared to 2010 at a loss of $16.1 million.
Operating loss increased $5.6 million to $38.3 million primarily due to an increase of $5.6 million in non-cash compensation expense. The increase in non-cash compensation expense is primarily related to equity grants issued subsequent to the third quarter of 2010, the reassessment made in the fourth quarter of 2010 of the number of performance based restricted stock units that will ultimately vest and the acceleration of certain equity awards during the third quarter of 2011.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010

At September 30, 2011, the Company had $679.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $185.7 million of marketable securities and $95.8 million of long-term debt. Domestically, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA rated treasury and government agency money market funds, commercial paper rated A1/P1 or better and time deposits. Internationally, cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA prime and government money market funds and time deposits. Marketable securities primarily consist of short-to-intermediate-term debt securities issued by states of the U.S. and subdivisions thereof and investment grade corporate issuers. The Company only invests in marketable securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity and the ability to readily convert investments into cash to fund current operations, or satisfy other cash requirements as needed. From time to time the Company may invest in marketable equity securities, but it is not customary for the Company to make investments in equity securities as part of its marketable securities investment strategy. Long-term debt is comprised of $80.0 million in Liberty Bonds due September 1, 2035 and $15.8 million in Senior Notes due January 15, 2013.
At September 30, 2011, $149.9 million of the $679.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and none of the $185.7 million of marketable securities were held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries. No U.S. federal or state income taxes have been provided on the permanently reinvested earnings of certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries that hold this cash and cash equivalents. 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. However, the Company's intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. and, currently, the Company does not anticipate a need to repatriate them to fund our U.S. operations.
On November 2, 2011, IAC's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common and Class B common stock outstanding to be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 15, 2011, with a payment date of December 1, 2011. Future declarations of dividends are subject to the determination of IAC's Board of Directors. Based on the Company's current shares outstanding, the total amount of this dividend will be approximately $10.0 million.
In summary, the Company's cash flows attributable to continuing operations are as follows (in thousands):

Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations consists of earnings or loss from continuing operations adjusted for non-cash items, including amortization of intangibles, depreciation, non-cash compensation expense, deferred income taxes, asset impairment charges, equity in income or losses of unconsolidated affiliates and gains or losses on the sales of investments, and the effect of changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations in 2011 was $269.6 million and consists of earnings from continuing operations of $133.8 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $105.9 million and cash provided by working capital of $29.9 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $66.1 million of non-cash compensation expense, $43.4 million of depreciation, $25.7 million of equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, partially offset by $44.5 million of deferred income taxes. The deferred income tax benefit primarily relates to the release of a previously established deferred tax liability in connection with the acquisition of Meetic. The increase in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily
45
consisted of an increase of $26.7 million in deferred revenue, an increase of $15.5 million in accounts payable and other current liabilities and a decrease of $9.0 million in other current assets, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $27.5 million. The increase in deferred revenue is primarily due to the growth in subscription revenue at Match, which includes an increase of $9.2 million in deferred revenue at Meetic, as well as growth at Electus and Vimeo. The increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities is primarily due to an increase in accrued revenue share expense and an increase in accrued advertising expense. The increase in accrued revenue share expense is primarily due to an increase in the proportion of revenue from customized browser-based applications and other arrangements with third parties who direct traffic to our websites. The increase in accrued advertising expense is primarily due to an increase in advertising and promotional expenditures at Search due to increased online marketing related to its destination websites and new product launches at Mindspark since the year ago period. The decrease in other current assets is primarily due to receipt of non-income tax refunds related to Match Europe, which were recorded as a receivable within other assets. The increase in accounts receivable is due to growth at our businesses with the increase at Search primarily due to the growth in revenue earned from our paid listing supply agreement with Google; the related receivable from Google was $85.7 million at September 30, 2011 and $70.5 million at December 31, 2010.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2011 of $14.2 million includes cash consideration used in acquisitions and investments of $362.9 million primarily related to the acquisitions of Meetic and OkCupid and capital expenditures of $27.3 million primarily related to the internal development of software to support our products and services, partially offset by net maturities and sales of marketable debt securities of $373.5 million.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2011 of $308.3 million includes $389.6 million for the repurchase of 10.8 million shares of common stock at an average price of $37.32 per share, partially offset by proceeds related to the issuance of common stock, net of withholding taxes of $62.0 million and excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of $22.9 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations in 2010 was $208.1 million and consists of earnings from continuing operations of $23.3 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $156.4 million and cash provided by working capital of $28.4 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $59.7 million of non-cash compensation expense, $47.0 million of depreciation and $27.2 million of equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates. The increase in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily consisted of an increase of $21.7 million in income taxes payable, an increase of $17.0 million in accounts payable and other current liabilities, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $19.0 million. The increase in income taxes payable was primarily a result of the receipt of refundable New York State tax credits under the Brownfield Cleanup Program Act, which was recorded as an income tax receivable within other assets and principally related to the construction of the Company's headquarters building in New York City. The increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities is primarily due to an increase in accrued advertising expense and an increase in accrued revenue share expense. The increase in accrued advertising expense is primarily due to an increase in advertising and promotional expenditures in the third quarter of 2010 relative to the fourth quarter of 2009 at Match and Search. The increase in accrued revenue share expense is primarily due to an increase in the proportion of revenue from customized browser-based applications and other arrangements with third parties who direct traffic to our websites, as well as a shift in partner mix to partners carrying higher traffic acquisition costs. The increase in accounts receivable is due to growth at our businesses with the increase at Search primarily due to the growth in revenue earned from our paid listing supply agreement with Google; the related receivable from Google was $59.9 million at September 30, 2010 and $53.7 million at December 31, 2009.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2010 of $27.6 million includes capital expenditures of $31.3 million primarily related to the internal development of software
46
to support our products and services, cash consideration used in acquisitions and investments of $19.0 million primarily related to the acquisition of Singlesnet, partially offset by a cash dividend of $11.4 million received from Meetic and net maturities and sales of marketable debt securities of $6.1 million.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2010 of $518.0 million includes $537.8 million for the repurchase of 23.1 million shares of common stock at an average price of $22.98 per share, partially offset by proceeds related to the issuance of common stock, net of withholding taxes of $13.3 million.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, as well as its cash flows generated from operations. The Company currently does not have in place any formal arrangements that would provide it with external sources of financing such as a revolving credit or other similar facility. The Company has two tranches of warrants outstanding; both with expiration dates of May 7, 2012. The first tranche consists of warrants to acquire 13.7 million shares of IAC common stock at a strike price of $26.86 per share and the second tranche consists of warrants to acquire 4.5 million shares of IAC common stock at a strike price of $31.75 per share. The Company's closing common stock price on November 4, 2011 was $43.64. Assuming all the warrants were exercised on May 7, 2012, the total proceeds that the Company would receive would be $369.2 million for the first tranche and $144.4 million for the second tranche.
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 2011 capital expenditures will be slightly less than 2010. At September 30, 2011, IAC had 11.4 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. The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, together with its expected positive cash flows generated from operations in 2011 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 debt or equity financing to provide for greater financial flexibility. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to us.

IAC'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING
IAC reports Operating Income Before Amortization as a supplemental measure to 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, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, 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
Operating Income Before Amortization is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (3) goodwill impairment, and (4) one-time items. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it represents the consolidated operating results from IAC's segments, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Operating Income Before Amortization has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation and acquisition-related accounting.
One-Time Items
Operating Income Before Amortization is presented before one-time items, if applicable. These items are truly one-time in nature and non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, and have not occurred in the past two years or are not expected to recur in the next two years, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. GAAP results include one-time items. For the periods presented in this report, there are no one-time items.
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 intangibles (including impairment of intangibles, if applicable) and goodwill impairment (if applicable) 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 customer lists, technology and supplier agreements, 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
49
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.
RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING INCOME BEFORE AMORTIZATION
For a reconciliation of Operating Income Before Amortization to operating income (loss) by reportable segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's investment portfolio and long-term debt.
Investment Portfolio
The Company invests its excess cash in certain cash equivalents and marketable debt securities, which consist primarily of money market instruments and short-to-intermediate-term debt securities issued by states of the U.S. and subdivisions thereof and investment grade corporate issuers. The Company employs a methodology that considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairment of its investments. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary. If a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded and a new cost basis in the investment is established.
Based on the Company's total investment in marketable debt securities at September 30, 2011, a 100 basis point increase or decrease in the level of interest rates would, respectively, decrease or increase the fair value of the debt investment securities by $1.8 million. Such potential increase or decrease in fair value is based on certain simplifying assumptions, including a constant level and rate of debt securities 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. Conversely, since almost all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents balance of $679.3 million is invested in short-term fixed or variable rate money market instruments, the Company would also earn more (less) interest income due to such an increase (decrease) in interest rates.
Long-term Debt
At September 30, 2011, the Company's outstanding debt is $95.8 million, all of which pays interest at fixed 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 in fair value of the fixed-rate debt by $10.7 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.
Equity Price Risk
At September 30, 2011, the Company has four investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies. These investments are available-for-sale marketable equity securities and are either included in "Marketable securities" or "Long-term investments" depending on management intent on holding the securities. The available-for-sale marketable equity securities are reported at fair value based on their quoted market price with any unrealized gain or loss, net of tax, included as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies are exposed to significant fluctuations in fair value due to the volatility of the stock market, among other factors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company did not record any other-than-temporary impairment charges related to its available-for-sale marketable equity securities. It is not customary for the Company to make significant investments in equity securities as part of its marketable securities investment strategy.
51
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The Company conducts business in certain foreign markets, primarily in the European Union. The Company's primary exposure to foreign currency exchange risk relates to investments in foreign subsidiaries that transact business in a functional currency other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily the Euro and British Pound Sterling. However, the exposure is mitigated since the Company has generally reinvested cash flows from international operations in order to grow the businesses. The statements of operations of the Company's international businesses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in reduced revenue and operating results. Similarly, the Company's revenue and operating results will increase for our international operations if the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies. The Company is also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency.
The economic impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements on the Company is often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, could cause the Company to adjust its financing and operating strategies. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses are not material to the Company's earnings in 2011 and 2010. As foreign currency exchange rates change, translation of the statements of operations of the Company's international businesses into U.S. dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results. Historically, the Company has not hedged foreign currency exchange risks because cash flows from international operations are generally reinvested locally. However, the Company periodically reviews its strategy for hedging foreign currency exchange risks. The Company's objective in managing its foreign currency exchange risk is to minimize its potential exposure to the changes that foreign currency exchange rates might have on its earnings, cash flows and financial position.
52
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.
Prior to the filing of our original Form 10-Q, as required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, IAC management, including the Chairman and Senior Executive, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, initially conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Chairman and Senior Executive, the Chief Executive Officer and 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 connection with the restatement of certain of our consolidated financial statements described in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q/A, management of the Company reevaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and determined that the control deficiency that caused the misstatement constitutes a material weakness in the operational effectiveness of controls in the area of accounting for deferred income taxes. Therefore, management has subsequently concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chairman and Senior Executive, the Chief Executive Officer 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.
Remediation of Material Weakness
As a result of the identification of the errors that led to the restatement and the related reassessment of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, the Company has developed certain remediation steps to address the material weakness discussed above and to improve its internal control over financial reporting in the area of deferred income taxes. Specifically, commencing in the fourth quarter of 2011, we have increased the level of review of work performed by Company personnel and third-party tax professionals in the identification and calculation of deferred income tax liabilities. The Company is in the process of completing its testing of the additional internal control processes outlined above that are designed to remediate this material weakness and expects to conclude that the material weakness has been satisfactorily remediated in its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.
