Vimeo

·Revenue increased 31% to $57.0 million driven by 38% higher Platform Revenue, partially offset by the sale of the hardware business in Q1 2019.

 

oPlatform Revenue growth was due to:
§31% growth in ending subscribers to nearly 1.3 million (including the addition of subscribers from Magisto, which was acquired on May 28, 2019). Net subscriber additions were 36,000 during Q1 2020 and even higher in April 2020.
§A 6% increase in average revenue per subscriber.

 

·Operating loss decreased $3.2 million to $14.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA losses decreased $4.8 million to $11.4 million, reflecting lower marketing.

 

Dotdash

·Revenue increased 30% to $44.1 million due to 15% higher Display Advertising revenue and 79% higher Performance Marketing revenue.

 

·Operating income decreased 21% to $2.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 2% to $7.0 million driven primarily to higher compensation costs and content investment.

 

Applications

·Revenue decreased 27% to $104.1 million due to a 44% decrease at Desktop, partially offset by a 7% increase at Mosaic Group.

 

oMosaic Group revenue growth was driven by a 7% increase in revenue per subscriber.
oThe decrease in Desktop revenue was driven by lower consumer queries and monetization challenges following prior year browser policy changes, as well as continued business-to-business partnerships declines.

 

·Operating loss was $218.6 million as compared to income of $25.4 million in Q1 2019 due primarily to:

 

oA $212.0 million goodwill impairment charge and $21.4 million intangible asset impairment charges at Desktop driven by traffic trends and monetization challenges due to the impact of COVID-19.
oAdjusted EBITDA decreased $19.5 million to $10.2 million.

 

 

 

 

Page 4 of 16

 

Emerging & Other

·Revenue increased 16% to $135.3 million due primarily to the acquisition of Care.com as well as growth at Ask Media Group, The Daily Beast and Bluecrew.

 

·Operating loss of $19.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA loss of $17.0 million in Q1 2020 includes:

 

o$13.5 million in transaction-related items from the Care.com acquisition (including $8.7 million in deferred revenue write-offs and $4.8 million in transaction-related costs).
oLower margins at Ask Media Group.
oHigher losses at Bluecrew and losses at NurseFly (acquired in Q2 2019).

 

Corporate

Operating loss increased $2.1 million driven by $11.2 million higher Adjusted EBITDA losses, including $7.6 million in costs related to the separation of Match Group from IAC, partially offset by an $8.5 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense.

 

Other expense, net

Other expense, net in Q1 2020 includes $51.5 million in impairments related to various equity investments that were adjusted to our estimate of fair value. These adjustments were driven by the impact of COVID-19.

Income Taxes

DILUTIVE SECURITIES

 

IAC has various dilutive securities. The table below details these securities as well as potential dilution at various stock prices (shares in millions; rounding differences may occur).

 

       Avg.                     
       Exercise   As of                 
   Shares   Price   5/1/20   Dilution at: 
                             
Share Price            $217.28   $230.00   $250.00   $270.00   $290.00

Warrants expiring on September 15, 2026 and April 15, 2030   3.9   $457.02    0.0    0.0    0.0    0.0    0.0 
Total Dilution             1.0    1.0    1.3    1.6    1.8 
% Dilution             1.2%   1.2%   1.5%   1.8%   2.0%
Total Diluted Shares Outstanding             86.0    86.0    86.3    86.5    86.7 

  

The dilutive securities presentation is calculated using the methods and assumptions described below, which are different from those used for GAAP dilution, which is calculated based on the treasury stock method. The table above does not reflect any IAC-denominated equity awards approved by the IAC Compensation and Human Resources Committee in 2020 that are to be issued following completion of the Match Group separation, nor does it reflect any adjustments to IAC equity awards that will take place in connection with the Match Group separation.

 

RSUs and non-publicly traded subsidiary denominated equity awards – These awards are settled on a net basis, with the Company paying in cash any required withholding taxes on behalf of the employees upon net settlement of the awards; therefore, the dilutive effect is presented as the net number of shares expected to be issued upon vesting or exercise assuming a withholding tax rate of 50%. In addition, the estimated income tax benefit from the tax deduction received upon the vesting or exercise of these awards is assumed to be used to repurchase IAC shares. Withholding taxes paid by the Company on behalf of the employees upon net settlement would be $45.0 million, assuming a stock price of $217.28 and a 50% withholding rate. The table above assumes no change in the fair value estimate of the non-publicly traded subsidiary denominated equity awards from the values used at March 31, 2020.

 

Options – The Company settles stock options on a net basis; therefore, the dilutive effect is presented as the net number of shares expected to be issued upon exercise assuming no proceeds are received by the Company and any required withholding taxes are paid in cash by the Company on behalf of the employees assuming a withholding tax rate of 50%. In addition, the estimated income tax benefit from the tax deduction received upon the exercise of these awards is assumed to be used to repurchase IAC shares. Withholding taxes paid by the Company on behalf of the employees upon net settlement would be $351.2 million ($317.0 million for vested options and $34.2 million for unvested options), assuming a stock price of $217.28 and a 50% withholding rate.

 

Exchangeable Senior Notes – The Company has three series of Exchangeable Senior Notes outstanding. In the event of an exchange, each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes can be settled in cash, shares or a combination of cash and shares. At the time of each Exchangeable Senior Notes issuance, the Company purchased call options with a strike price equal to the exchange price of each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes (“Note Hedge”), which can be used to offset the dilution of each series of the Exchangeable Senior Notes. No dilution is reflected in the table above for the $517.5 million 0.875% Exchangeable Senior Notes due October 1, 2022, which is the only series of Exchangeable Senior Notes that is currently exchangeable, because it is the Company’s intention to settle the Exchangeable Senior Notes with cash equal to the face amount of the notes; any shares issued would be offset by shares received upon exercise of the Note Hedge.

 

Warrants – At the time of the issuance of each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes, the Company also sold warrants for the number of shares with the strike prices reflected in the table above. The cash generated from the exercise of the warrants is assumed to be used to repurchase IAC shares and the net dilution is reflected in the table above.

 

ANGI Homeservices and Match Group Equity Awards and the Treatment of the Related Dilutive Effect

 

Certain ANGI Homeservices and Match Group equity awards can be settled either in IAC common shares or the common shares of these subsidiaries, at IAC’s election. For purposes of the dilution calculation above, these awards are assumed to be settled in shares of ANGI Homeservices and Match Group common stock; therefore, no dilution from these awards is included.

IAC PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

IAC reports Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, both of which are supplemental measures to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These are among 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. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, however, should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measures presented by providing the comparable GAAP measures with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measures. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures, which are included in this release. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

 

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

 

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable, and (ii) gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of certain expenses.

 

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to investors because it represents the cash that our operating businesses generate, before taking into account non-operational cash movements. Free Cash Flow has certain limitations in that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period, nor does it represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures. For example, it does not take into account stock repurchases. Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate Free Cash Flow along with our consolidated statement of cash flows.

IAC PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING (continued)

 

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From Adjusted EBITDA

 

Stock-based compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of stock options, RSUs, performance-based RSUs and market-based awards. These expenses are not paid in cash and we view the economic cost of stock-based awards to be the dilution to our share base; we also include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding for GAAP earnings per share using the treasury stock method. Performance-based RSUs and market-based awards are included only to the extent the applicable performance or market condition(s) have been met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period). To the extent that stock-based awards are settled on a net basis, the Company remits the required tax-withholding amounts from its current funds.

 

Please see page 9 for a summary of our dilutive securities, including stock-based awards as of May 1, 2020 and a description of the calculation methodology.

 

Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our property, capitalized software and equipment and is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the lease term, if shorter.

 

Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash expenses related primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as technology, service professional relationships, customer lists and user base, memberships, trade names and content, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

 

Gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements are accounting adjustments to report contingent consideration liabilities at fair value. These adjustments can be highly variable and are excluded from our assessment of performance because they are considered non-operational in nature and, therefore, are not indicative of current or future performance or the ongoing cost of doing business.

Certain of these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in IAC’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other unknown or unpredictable factors that could also adversely affect IAC's business, financial condition and results of operations may arise from time to time. In light of these risks and uncertainties, these forward-looking statements may not prove to be accurate. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only reflect the views of IAC’s management as of the date of this press release.
