Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Administrative Committee

InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan

 

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan (formerly USA Interactive Retirement Savings Plan) (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statement of changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We have conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole.  The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets (held at year end) as of December 31, 2003 and non-exempt transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan

(formerly USA Interactive Retirement Savings Plan)

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2003

 

1.              Description of the Plan

 

The following description of the InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan (formerly the USA Interactive Retirement Savings Plan) (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan documents for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

 

General

 

The Plan is a defined contribution Plan covering substantially all employees of certain affiliated companies of InterActiveCorp (the “Company”). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). Effective August 1, 2003, the Plan was amended and restated to change its name from the USA Interactive Retirement Savings Plan to the InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan. Effective January 1, 2002 the Plan was amended to comply with the requirements of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001.

 

During 2003 the Plan was amended to effect the Plan mergers described in Note 5.

 

Contributions

 

Participants can make pre-tax deferrals ranging from 1% to 16%, and after tax contributions ranging  from 1% to 10%, in each case, of their compensation (as defined in the Plan documents) through payroll deductions. Participants can direct their contributions to any of the Plan’s fund options and may change their investment options on a daily basis.

 

The Company contributes an amount equal to 50% of the first 6% of pre-tax deferrals that a participant contributes in each payroll period to the Plan. The Company may also make a discretionary contribution of funds which is set annually by the Company’s Board of Directors. For the year ended December 31, 2003 the Company’s matching contribution was $5,651,105. No discretionary contributions were made to the Plan. Participants can direct Company contributions to any of the Plan’s fund options in the same manner as they direct their own contributions.

 

Vesting

 

Participant contributions are fully vested at the time of contribution. Generally participants are 100% vested in the Company contribution portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon after two years of credited service. Certain participants who were participants in plans that were merged into the Plan on August 1, 2003 receive the more generous of the Plan’s vesting provisions, or the vesting provisions of their former plan, until full vesting occurs. Participants should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s vesting provisions.

 

Eligibility

 

Participants must be 21 years of age or older and are eligible to participate upon commencement of service as defined in the Plan documents.

 

4



 

Participants’ Accounts

 

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of the Company’s contributions and Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant account balances as defined in the Plan documents . The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s account.

 

Forfeitures

 

Company matching contributions that become forfeitures are first made available to reinstate previously forfeited account balances of qualifying participants who have left the Company and have subsequently returned. The remaining amount, if any, is used to reduce the Company’s matching contributions. Forfeited non-vested accounts totaled $508,325 and $296,876 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

Participant Loans

 

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance within the last 12 months or 50% of their vested account balances. With the exception of loans used to purchase a primary residence, which can have terms up to 15 years, loan terms are limited to a maximum of five years. Loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with commercial prevailing rates as determined by the Plan administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through regular payroll deductions.

 

Payment of Benefits

 

Upon a participant’s retirement, death, disability or other interruption of continuous service, his/her entire vested account balance will be distributed in the form of a lump sum unless the participant’s vested balance is more than $5,000 and the participant elects to leave such amounts in the Plan.

 

Participants reaching 59.5 may elect to withdraw some or all of their vested balance while still employed. Participants’ pre-tax deferrals may be withdrawn earlier, subject to certain hardship withdrawal provisions of the Plan. Participants who have made after-tax contributions may elect to withdraw some or all of their accounts with no limit on the number of withdrawals of this type. Terminated participants may elect to receive a distribution of their account balances, subject to income tax and early withdrawal penalties.

 

Plan Termination

 

Although the Company has expressed no intent to terminate the Plan, in the event that the Plan is terminated by the Company, all amounts credited to the participants’ accounts would become 100% vested and the net assets would be distributed to participants.

 

Administrative Expenses

 

Substantially all of the administrative expenses are paid by the Plan unless the Company elects to pay such expenses.

2.              Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Accounting

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investments

 

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. The shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset values of shares held by the Plan at year end. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the Plan year. The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.

 

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded as of their trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

3.              Investments

 

The Plan’s investments (including investments purchased, sold and held during the year) appreciated in fair value as determined by quoted market prices as follows:

4.              Income Tax Status

 

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated May 19, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan was amended and restated in its entirety subsequent to the receipt of the determination letter. The plan sponsor has indicated that it will take the necessary steps, if any, to maintain the Plan’s qualified status. A new request for a determination letter on the Plan’s qualified status was submitted to the IRS on June 18, 2004.

 

5.              Plan Mergers

 

The Company, as permitted by the relevant Plan documents, merged the USA Interactive Retirement Savings Plan—Networks (the “Networks Plan”), the Interval Acquisition Corp. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Interval Plan”), the Entertainment Savings Plan (the “Entertainment Plan”), the Hotels.com 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust (the “Hotels.com Plan”), the Ticketmaster 401(k) Retirement Plan (the “Ticketmaster Plan”) and the Expedia, Inc. Plan (the “Expedia Plan”) into the Plan effective August 1, 2003. As a result, effective August 1, 2003, all of the net assets available for benefits of the Networks Plan, the Interval Plan, the Entertainment Plan, the Hotels.com Plan, the Ticketmaster Plan and the Expedia Plan were transferred to the Plan.

 

Effective December 1, 2003, the Company, as permitted by the relevant Plan documents, merged the LendingTree 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the “LendingTree Plan”) into the Plan. As a result, effective December 1, 2003, all of the net assets available for benefits of the LendingTree Plan were transferred to the Plan.

 

6.              Subsequent Event

 

Effective January 1, 2004, the Company, as permitted by the relevant Plan documents, merged the Hotwire 401(k) Plan (the “Hotwire Plan”) into the Plan. As a result, effective January 1, 2004, all of the net assets available for benefits of the Hotwire Plan were transferred to the Plan.
