NEW YORK, NY, July 24, 2002 - USA Interactive (NASDAQ: USAI) reported results
today for its quarter ended June 30, 2002.
- USA INTERACTIVE extended its lead in online travel, as USA's travel
businesses (EXPEDIA, HOTELS.COM and TV TRAVEL GROUP) generated a
collective $1.6 billion in transactions during the period, up 68% from
$970 million in Q2 '01.
- HSN - U.S. had another solid quarter, exceeding its Q2 budget despite
modest sales growth of 6%. Contributing positively to the results were
HSN's continued focus on higher margin products, which boosted gross
margin by 390 basis points to 38.4%; 44% revenue growth at HSN.com; and
further gains in operating leverage. Management believes that HSN will be
able to achieve its 2002 budget of $285 million, although Q3 is off to a
slower than expected start.
- TICKETMASTER Online accounted for 43% of the 24.3 million tickets sold by
Ticketmaster in Q2, helping to expand ticketing operating margins to 25%
versus 22% in Q2 2001. MATCH.COM grew subscribers 179% over the prior year
to 604,175, with 313,228 new subscriptions in Q2, aided by the acquisition
of Soulmates.
- USA'S BALANCE SHEET is stronger than ever, with more than $4 billion in
attributable cash and securities, net of debt and preferred stock.
- ----------------------
DEFINITIONS:
- - INTERACTIVE BUSINESSES include HSN, HSN.com, Expedia, Hotels.com,
Ticketmaster.com and Match.com.
- - OPERATING BUSINESSES include HSN-U.S., Ticketing, Match.com, Hotels.com,

- - OPERATING MARGINS refer to Adjusted EBITDA (see page 3) as a percentage of
revenue.

been, or will ultimately be, settled in cash and is defined as net income
available to common shareholders plus: (1) amortization of non-cash
distribution and marketing expense (2) non-cash compensation expense and
(3) amortization of goodwill (in 2001) and intangibles, net of related tax
and minority interest expense. All amounts are presented on a fully
diluted, treasury method basis. See page 2 for more detail.

FINANCIAL RESULTS
As USA has indicated in previous public filings, the company has switched its
focus from Adjusted EBITDA ("EBITDA") to Cash Net Income ("CNI") as its most
relevant `bottom line' metric. However, USA's segment results are presented on
page 3 of this release on an EBITDA basis to be consistent with prior periods
and because USA believes the investment community still largely measures USA's
value and operating performance using this metric. EBITDA is also the basis on
which USA's internal budget was prepared and is the primary gauge in rewarding
incentive compensation to USA's managers for 2002. In connection with its 2003
budget process, USA intends to replace EBITDA for segment reporting purposes
with a metric relevant to how USA manages its businesses internally, such as
Operating Income before amortization of intangibles and certain other non-cash
items.
CASH NET INCOME
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CNI generally captures all income statement items that have been, or ultimately
will be, settled in cash. Accordingly, CNI includes many items that EBITDA does
not, such as depreciation, interest, minority interest, and taxes. The following
table shows the reconciliation from EBITDA to net income, then to CNI.

- ---------------------------
DEFINITIONS:
- - ADJUSTED EBITDA, also referred to as EBITDA in this release, is defined as
operating income plus (1) depreciation ($42.4 million and $37.7 million in
Q2 2002 and Q2 2001, respectively), (2) amortization of cable distribution
fees ($13.1 million & $10.6 million, in Q2 2002 and 2001, respectively), (3)
amortization of non-cash distribution, marketing, and compensation expense
($10.1 million and $10.6 million in Q2 2002 and Q2 2001, respectively), (4)
amortization of other intangibles ($29.4 million and $31.8 million in Q2
2002 and Q2 2001, respectively), and (5) disengagement related payments to
cable operators and marketing expenses ($6.2 million in Q2 2002) related to
the transfer of HSN's distribution to cable (which has been accomplished).
- - ATTRIBUTABLE ADJUSTED EBITDA - OPERATING BUSINESSES is defined as Adjusted
EBITDA from Operating Businesses, less the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA
attributable to minority shareholders of USA's public subsidiaries. This
percentage is determined based on the Q2 weighted average of USA's fully
diluted, treasury method ownership in each of its public subsidiaries (see
page 4 for detail).
(a) USA's consolidation reflects a downward adjustment of approximately $2.2
million to Expedia's revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. The adjustment reflects a
purchase accounting entry at USA to account for the fair value of
liabilities assumed related to deferred revenue and related amounts.
(b) Includes HSE Germany, Home Shopping Espanol, TV Travel Group and other (see
pages 8 and 9). HSE Germany reported revenue and EBITDA (net of Euro's
exchange rate fluctuation), respectively, of $66.8 million and $0.9 million
in Q2 2002, vs. $66.4 million and $4.9 million in Q2 2001. TV Travel Group
reported revenue and EBITDA, respectively, of $6.7 million and ($1.4)
million in Q2 2002.
(c) In order to present comparable results for HSN Germany, the results have
been translated from Euros to U.S. dollars at a constant exchange rate.
(d) 2001 amounts reflect estimated results generated by homes lost by HSN
following the sale of USA Broadcasting to Univision. 2002 revenue amount
reflects sales rebates offered to customers impacted by disengagement.
(e) Non-recurring items in 2002 include restructuring and one-time items of
$20.2 million for ECS related to rationalizing the business, $17.1 million
for the closure of HSN Espanol and $7.1 million related to PRC, primarily
for the closure of call centers. In addition to the $44.4 million of charges
impacting EBITDA, the Company also recorded a charge of $114.3 million which
is recorded below EBITDA, including $75.0 million related to equity losses
in HOT Networks due primarily to HOT's decision to shut its operations in
Belgium and the UK as well as adjustments to the carrying value of other
investments held by HOT and $11.3 million related to HSN's investment in
China, $24.4 million of goodwill for PRC arising in Q2 from contingent
purchase consideration, and $0.9 million and $2.6 million related to ECS and
Home Shopping Espanol, respectively, for fixed asset write-downs. 2001
amounts include $4.8 million related to the restructuring of Styleclick's
operations. In addition, the Company recorded $5.8 million below EBITDA for
the 2001 Styleclick restructuring.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pro Forma Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.03 in Q2, versus $0.00
in Q2 of 2001. 2001 data is pro forma for the adoption of FAS 141/142, the new
accounting rules that eliminate amortization of goodwill. 2002 results are
before the estimated after-tax gain of approximately $2.4 billion related to the
Vivendi transaction and $2.0 million expense relating to the redemption of the
Savoy bonds. These amounts are pro forma for the Expedia and Vivendi
transactions, and exclude one-time gains and losses.
On a GAAP EPS basis, including all non-operating and one-time items (described
above and in footnote "e" on previous page) and discontinued operations
(consisting of USA Entertainment, which had a $6.9 million gain in Q2 2002 and
$23.6 million gain in Q2 2001), Diluted EPS available to common shareholders for
Q2 of 2002 was $4.87 versus $0.09 in Q2 of 2001.

ANTICIPATED PERFORMANCE VERSUS 2002 BUDGET
USA filed its budget with the SEC on January 29, 2002. Factors impacting USA's
currently anticipated performance versus its budget include: stronger than
expected results for certain of its operating businesses (primarily Expedia,
Hotels.com and Match.com); the inclusion of TV Travel Group as of the
acquisition closing date of May 2, 2002; and other factors listed below. As
against its 2002 budget, USA currently expects to (a):
- - exceed OPERATING REVENUE by 4%;
- - exceed TOTAL REVENUE by 2%;
- - exceed OPERATING EBITDA by 14%; and
- - exceed TOTAL EBITDA by 7%, based on stronger than expected Operating
EBITDA, offset partially by higher losses at HSN International (including
lower than expected performance at HSE Germany and Home Shopping Espanol,
which has been shut down, and the consolidation of HOT Networks).
Subsequent to the budget filing in January, items of a non-operating and/or
structural nature offset the better than expected operating results. As such,
against its 2002 budget, USA expects to (a):
- - meet its CASH NET INCOME budget of $178 million, despite a number of
non-operating factors including later than anticipated recognition of
interest income on the $1.6 billion in cash proceeds from the Vivendi
transaction, as well as lower than expected results from emerging asset HSE
Germany, significantly higher than expected losses for HSN International,
and the inclusion of TV Travel Group, which is presently unprofitable and
historically has had a very weak fourth quarter. Based on 475 million fully
diluted shares (which includes 56.6 million shares not reflected in USA's
budget calculations) (b), USA expects CASH EPS of $0.37; and
- - exceed its OPERATING INCOME budget by 25%, not including a significant
increase in non-cash amortization of intangibles relating to its
acquisition of Expedia and as a result of a step up in certain of its
assets for book purposes relating to the Vivendi transaction. Including
these non-cash items, USA expects to perform below its budget for Operating
Income by approximately 18%.
- -----------------------------------------
(a) Presented on a comparative pro forma basis reflecting the Vivendi and
Expedia transactions, and reflecting continuing operations and excluding
one-time items.
(b) USA's internal budget reflected 415 million shares outstanding, treating
Vivendi's 56.6 million USA shares as treasury. Accordingly, USA also did
not treat its Class B Preferred interest in VUE as outstanding for
valuation purposes. To be more conservative, USA treats Vivendi's 56.6
million shares as outstanding, and recognizes the balance sheet carrying
value of the Class B Preferred for valuation purposes.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
HSN - U.S.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - HSN's Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 16.6% from 14.5% in the previous
year's Q2, primarily due to gross profit improvement and continued leverage
in the operating infrastructure. Margin improvement is attributable to the
continued shift in product mix from lower margin electronics to higher
margin products in the specialty apparel and beauty care line.
- - Off-air sales and HSN.com continue to be growth drivers for HSN. Off-air
sales increased 35% year-over-year and 11% sequentially, driven by strong
demand for the waitlist business. HSN.com grew revenue 44% in Q2 to $42
million.
- - Customer service calls are down more than 20% from the prior year,
reflecting significantly higher customer satisfaction.
- - Kathy Levine, former number one host at QVC, will bring an exclusive new

PRECISION RESPONSE CORPORATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - PRC's business environment continued to improve. While year-over-year
results were unfavorable, PRC grew revenue by 3% and EBITDA by 29%
sequentially from Q1, aided by implementation of operating efficiency
initiatives that improved profitability.
- - PRC signed new customer service deals with Household Credit Finance and a
major satellite service provider during the period and expanded its
existing arrangements with AT&T and Federal Express.
INTERNATIONAL TV SHOPPING & OTHER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - On May 1, USA completed the previously announced acquisition of TV Travel
Group Ltd. ("TV Travel Group") for approximately $100 million in cash and
stock. U.K.-based TV Travel Group pioneered the concept of a TV channel
dedicated to selling travel, and currently has three TV Travel Shop(TM)
channels - two in the U.K. and one in Germany.
- - On May 9, TV Travel Group launched its interactive travel channel. TV
Travel Shop Interactive allows viewers to discover additional information
and prices for vacation packages with the press of a button.
- - During the quarter, HSN entered into various transactions with its European
partners, Georg Kofler and Thomas Kirch, to increase HSN's ownership in
certain of its international assets. The transactions are largely
completed. When they are fully completed, HSN will own (or in the case of a
portion of HSE-Italy, hold a passive beneficial interest with no voting
rights in) approximately 90% of HSE Germany, 46% of Euvia (in Germany,
which consists of Euvia travel and Neun Live) and 84.5% of HSE-Italy. The
total purchase price is approximately $100 million. HSN also continues to
look for another partner for HSE-Italy, which would decrease its stake in
that venture.
- - HOT Networks' channels in the Netherlands, Belgium/France and the U.K. (in
which HSN held minority interests), as well as HSN's 100% owned HSE -
Espanol, have ceased operations. HSN's involvement with the home shopping
businesses in China and Japan are unaffected.
OTHER HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - In June, USA surpassed Amazon to become the 8th largest group in terms of
online reach, with 29.2 million unduplicated unique visitors (source:
comScore Media Metrix). (a)
- - On June 27, 2002, USA and Liberty completed an exchange of Liberty's Holdco
shares for 33 million USA shares. The effect of this transaction is that
Liberty's interest in USA is now comprised solely of USA shares, and Holdco
is 100% owned by USA, thereby simplifying USA's corporate structure.
Because Liberty's Holdco shares were exchangeable for USA shares, the
exchange did not affect Liberty's ultimate equity ownership interests in
USA. In addition, because USA's fully diluted shares outstanding have
historically included Liberty's exchangeable shares, the exchange did no
affect USA's fully diluted shares outstanding.
- - ECS is reviewing its relationships with its partners, and it is likely that
certain of its smaller relationships will be materially altered or
discontinued. Specifically, with respect to Sportsline.com, Inc., an
agreement has been reached between ECS and Sportsline.com, Inc. to mutually
terminate their relationship.

REVENUE PRESENTATION ALTERNATIVES
FOR MERCHANT HOTEL BUSINESSES
As USA completes the first full quarter that it will report the results of
Expedia, we find ourselves in an unusual financial reporting situation with
respect to revenue presentation. If asked, most people would probably say that
Expedia and Hotels.com are similar in that they are in the business of selling
hotel rooms. However, each presents revenue in a different manner - Expedia on a
net basis and Hotels.com on a gross basis. The presentations are consistent with
the respective management teams' interpretation of the accounting rules, based
on their respective facts and circumstances. Each company's conclusions were
reached in close consultation with their respective external audit firms, Ernst
&Young for Hotels.com and Deloitte & Touche for Expedia at the time of the
merger with USA and Ernst & Young with respect to the most recent quarter. To be
sure, there are differences in the business models. However, now that the two
companies are subsidiaries of the same parent company, we will be proactively
discussing the matter with the SEC to confirm our view of the ongoing accounting
in this highly unusual situation. USA can not predict the outcome of its
discussion with the SEC, but we can say that while any change made to either
Expedia or Hotels.com would affect revenue and cost of sales by the same amount
and would impact operating margin percentages, it would not impact the timing of
revenue recognition (both defer revenue until the conclusion of the customer
stay) and would not impact gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, operating income, cash
net income, net income, earnings per share or cash flows.
Some background to the significant factors that each company considered in
reaching its own determination of the presentation of revenue is warranted. The
accounting considerations were primarily based on three factors: the primary
obligor relationship, pricing and inventory risk.
Hotels.com believes that it is the primary obligor in its transactions, as it is
ultimately responsible for the satisfaction of its customers. If for some reason
a room booked on Hotels.com is unsatisfactory or unavailable, Hotels.com accepts
the responsibility to secure another hotel room for the customer or otherwise
attempt to satisfy the customer. Expedia also offers customer care, but believes
that, since it generally does not provide any portion of the service ordered by
the customer nor does it alter the service provided by the hotel, that the hotel
is the primary obligor.
With respect to inventory risk, for Expedia the percentage of supplier contracts
that obligate it to risk are relatively low while virtually all of Hotels.com
contracts carry an element of inventory risk. Neither company has experienced
significant losses under the supplier contracts. However, both did experience
some loss as a result of the events of September 11th, as the companies had to
pay for hotel room reservations that were cancelled by their customers.
Both Hotels.com and Expedia have broad latitude to set and change prices based
on market demand, and the amount earned on a transaction is based solely on the
price agreed with the customer, and not on a set commission rate.
USA is always striving to report its results in the most transparent and
meaningful manner. We hope to work with the SEC over the next several weeks with
the goal of reaching a conclusion during the third quarter. Once again, we
believe the accounting models used by Expedia and Hotels.com continue to be
appropriate based on their own facts and circumstances. Ernst & Young, the
independent auditor of USA, Expedia and Hotels.com, also concurs with this
treatment. However, any possible change to the presentation of Expedia or
Hotels.com will be limited to the presentation of revenue, cost of sales and
operating margins, and will have no impact on the timing of revenue recognition,
gross profit, operating income, cash net income, net income, earnings per share
or cash flows.
We believe USA has two choices in dealing with this situation. First, we could
stay silent, discuss the issue with the SEC and then disclose the outcome later.
Second, we could disclose the circumstances now, including our decision to
discuss the matter with the SEC. We have chosen the latter - the course of
greater openness and disclosure.
