Business OVERVIEW Who We Are IAC is a leading media and internet company comprised of more than 150 brands and products, including Ask.com, About.com, Match.com, HomeAdvisor and Vimeo. Focused in the areas of search, applications, online dating, local and media, IAC's family of websites is one of largest in the world, with more than a billion monthly visits across more than 100 countries. The results of operations of IAC's various businesses are reported within the following five segments: Search & Applications, Match, Local, Media and Other. For information regarding the results of operations of IAC's reportable segments, as well as their respective contributions to IAC's consolidated results of operations, see “Item 7-Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” beginning on page 23 and “Item 8-Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” beginning on page 42. All references to “IAC,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp. Our History IAC, initially a hybrid media/electronic retailing company, was incorporated in July 1986 in Delaware under the name Silver King Broadcasting Company, Inc. After several name changes (first to HSN, Inc., then to USA Networks, Inc., USA Interactive and InterActiveCorp, and finally to IAC/InterActiveCorp) and the completion of a number of significant corporate transactions over the years, the Company transformed itself into a leading media and internet company. From 1997 through 2001, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Ticketmaster Group (and the remaining interest in 1998) and Hotel Reservations Network (later renamed Hotels.com), as well as acquired Match.com and other smaller e-commerce companies. As its transformation from a hybrid media/electronic retailing company continued to evolve, in May 2002, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Expedia.com and contributed its entertainment assets to Vivendi Universal Entertainment LLLP, or VUE, a joint venture then controlled by Vivendi. The Company continued to grow its portfolio of e-commerce companies by acquiring all of the shares of Expedia.com, Hotels.com and Ticketmaster that it did not previously own, together with a number of other e-commerce companies (including LendingTree and Hotwire), in 2003. In 2005, IAC acquired Ask Jeeves, Inc. (now known as IAC Search & Media, Inc.) and, on August 9, 2005, completed the separation of its travel and travel -related businesses and investments into an independent public company called Expedia, Inc. That year, IAC also sold its common and preferred interests in VUE to NBC Universal. In December 2006, the Company acquired Connected Ventures, LLC, which at that time owned and operated CollegeHumor.com and Vimeo. The Company transferred all of Vimeo’s assets to a separate, wholly-owned subsidiary of IAC, Vimeo, LLC, in July 2008. In July 2008, the Company acquired the Lexico Publishing Group, owner of various reference websites, including Dictionary.com. On August 20, 2008, IAC separated into five publicly traded companies: IAC, HSN, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc., Ticketmaster and Tree.com, Inc. In June 2009, we sold the European operations of Match.com to Meetic S.A. ("Meetic"), a leading European online dating company based in France, in exchange for a 27% interest in Meetic and a €5 million note. In July 2009, we acquired PeopleMedia, Inc., operator of a number of demographically targeted dating websites. In December 2010, we exchanged the stock of a wholly -owned subsidiary that held our Evite, Gifts.com and IAC Advertising Solutions businesses and approximately $218 million in cash for substantially all of Liberty Media Corporation's equity stake in IAC. In February 2011, we acquired OkCupid, an ad -supported online personals service. During the third quarter of 2011, we increased our ownership stake in Meetic to 81%. In September 2012, we acquired The About Group, which primarily consists of About.com, a comprehensive online content and reference library. In December 2012, we acquired Tutor, an online tutoring service. 2 Table of Contents In early 2014, we acquired the remaining publicly traded shares of Meetic for approximately $72 million through a successful tender offer in France and the businesses within ValueClick’s “Owned and Operated” reporting segment, including Investopedia and PriceRunner, for $80 million. EQUITY OWNERSHIP AND VOTE IAC has outstanding shares of common stock, with one vote per share, and Class B common stock, with ten votes per share and which are convertible into common stock on a share for share basis. As of January 31, 2014, Barry Diller, IAC's Chairman and Senior Executive, owned 5,789,499 shares of Class B common stock (the "Diller Shares") representing 100% of IAC's outstanding Class B common stock and approximately 43.1% of the outstanding total voting power of IAC.
