Exhibit 99.2 USA Networks, Inc. (the "Company" or "USAi") is a holding company, the subsidiaries of which are engaged in diversified media and electronic commerce businesses. In the third quarter of 1997, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Ticketmaster through the issuance of Common Stock to Paul G. Allen and purchases of Ticketmaster shares in the open market for total consideration of $210.0 million (the "Ticketmaster Acquisition"). In connection with the issuance of new shares to Mr. Allen, the Company also issued shares of the Company's Class B common stock in accordance with Liberty's contingent right to receive such shares as part of the Home Shopping Merger in 1996. In connection with the Ticketmaster tax-free merger, as of June 24, 1998, the Company issued 31,934,400 shares of Common Stock to the public shareholders of Ticketmaster and converted 3.6 million options to acquire Ticketmaster common stock into options to acquire Common Stock for a total consideration of $467.7 million. The acquisition of the controlling interest in Ticketmaster and the tax-free merger are collectively referred to as the "Ticketmaster Transaction." On July 16, 1998, the Company sold the assets of SF Broadcasting, which owned and operated four television stations (the "SF Broadcasting Transaction"). On February 12, 1998, the Company acquired USA Networks, a New York general partnership, consisting of cable television networks USA Network and Sci-Fi Channel ("Networks"), as well as the domestic television production and distribution businesses of Universal Studios ("Studios USA") from Universal Studios, Inc. ("Universal"), an entity controlled by The Seagram Company Ltd. ("Seagram"), and the Company changed its name to USA Networks, Inc. (the "Universal Transaction"). On September 28, 1998, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization among CitySearch, Inc. ("CitySearch"), the Company, Ticketmaster and certain of its subsidiaries, the Company merged the online ticketing operations of Ticketmaster (Ticketmaster.com) into a subsidiary of CitySearch, a publisher of local city guides on the Web (the "CitySearch Merger"), to create Ticketmaster Online-CitySearch, Inc. ("TMCS"). On May 10, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of two entities which operate Hotel Reservations Network (the "Hotel Reservations Network Transaction"). On May 28, 1999, the Company acquired October Films, Inc. ("October Films"), in which Universal owned a majority interest, and the domestic film distribution and development business of Universal previously operated by Polygram Filmed Entertainment, Inc. ("PFE") (the "October Films/PFE Transaction"). On April 5, 2000, the Company acquired Precision Response Corporation ("PRC") (the "PRC Transaction"). On July 27, 2000 USAi and Styleclick.com Inc., a leading enabler of e-commerce for manufacturers and retailers, completed the merger of Internet Shopping Network ("ISN") and Styleclick.com (the "Styleclick Transaction"). For additional information on each of these transactions, see the Company's filings on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The following unaudited pro forma operating results of USAi present combined results of operations as if the Universal Transaction, Ticketmaster Transaction, CitySearch Merger, the SF Broadcasting Transaction, the Hotel Reservations Network Transaction, the October Films/PFE Transaction, the PRC Transaction and the Styleclick Transaction and the consolidation of HOT Germany all had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited combined condensed pro forma statements of operations of USAi are presented below for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have actually been reported had any of the transactions occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of future results of operations.
