  • Matching with IAC $IAC $MTCH
    Matching with IAC $IAC $MTCH IAC Interactive (IAC; disclosure: long) represents the opportunity to invest in a company trading for roughly the same price of its publicly traded equity stakes despite the presence of world class capital allocators with a proven history of realizing shareholder value at the opportune time, hundreds of millions in net cash on their balance sheet, and a grab bag of other (quite valuable) assets. Let me start with a bit of background: IAC is a conglomerate controlled by mogul Barry Diller. The company has a long and storied history which makes for interesting reading (at various points in time, they’ve owned big stakes in everything from a Japanese home shopping network to Ticketmaster and a variety of other big internet companies) but is a bit beyond the scope of this article; however, what is worth noting is that an investment in IAC since its inception in 1995 has destroyed a similar investment in the S&P 500: Anyway, today IAC has five main sources of value. I’ll go over them briefly below, but I’d encourage you to check out their FY16 letter for a bit more depth into their businesses: 1. Match.com (MTCH): IAC owns 80%+ of publicly traded Match.com, which owns Match, Tinder, and several other popular dating sites. 2. ANGI Homeservices (ANGI): IAC owns ~85% of ANGI Homeservices, which was formed by the merger of IAC’s HomeAdvisor with Angie’s List. 3. Video- IAC fully owns this segment, which includes Vimeo, CollegeHumor, Daily Burn, and a few others.

  • IAC's ANGI Homeservices Inc. Makes Stock Market Debut
    IAC's ANGI Homeservices Inc. Makes Stock Market Debut October 2, 2017 - IAC completes transaction combining Angie's List with HomeAdvisor to launch category leader in the $400 billion market for home services - ANGI Homeservices offers largest network in North America with 200,000 high quality service professionals across 500 home services categories and 400 discrete markets - Suzy Welch, Alesia J. Haas and Yilu Zhao join Board of Directors NEW YORK, Oct. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- IAC (NASDAQ: IAC) and ANGI Homeservices Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGI) today announced that ANGI Homeservices Inc. will commence trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "ANGI" today, October 2, 2017, following the completion of the transaction combining Angie's List and IAC's HomeAdvisor into a single, publicly-traded company. The new company instantly connects homeowners with the largest network of high quality service professionals in North America, and the combined network delivers the scale necessary to accelerate product innovation in the $400 billion home services category's shift online. The transaction was approved by stockholders of Angie's List at a special meeting held for such purpose on September 29, 2017, and completed following close of business that same day. ANGI Homeservices combines Angie's List's well-known brand and large audience with IAC's home services category leader HomeAdvisor, creating a pro forma entity that exceeded $890 million in combined revenue over the last twelve months, as of the second quarter of 2017. The combined company expects to generate $270 million in Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 (excluding deferred revenue write-offs and transaction related one-time costs of up to $100 million) and is targeting a five-year compound annual growth rate of revenue of 20 to 25 percent, with Adjusted EBITDA margins ramping to approximately 35 percent.

  • IAC Q3 2020 Shareholder Letter
    Page 1 of 8 IAC Q3 2020 Shareholder Letter November 5, 2020 Dear Shareholders, Since we first confronted the severity of this pandemic, leaving our offices in early March to protect our employees and our communities, many things have changed. Although the magnitude of the pandemic’s impact on all of us individually has varied wildly, the direction of that impact has been universally and unequivocally negative. The same has not been true for businesses – some have been harmed severely, including many small business sectors that are the foundation of our economy, while others have benefited immensely. On a relative basis, IAC’s been incredibly lucky. Our workforce can function with 99% of our jobs operating remotely, largely out of harm’s way. Our consolidated businesses, all entirely digital, have been able to remain “open” throughout the lockdown, operating legally and safely. And thanks to our perpetually conservative balance sheet, we entered the pandemic with enough cash to withstand plenty of unexpected disruption and short-term volatility while still opportunistically investing over $1 billion in MGM Resorts International and making smaller acquisitions for Dotdash and Care.com. We’re grateful to endure a relatively favorable dispersion of outcomes on our businesses. This letter will focus significantly, for several reasons, on Vimeo, a business that benefited meaningfully from the pandemic. Of course, management always prefers to tell a positive story, and Vimeo is a fantastic story right now. But more importantly, we’ve begun contemplating spinning Vimeo off to our shareholders, and we therefore want to lay out the current state of Vimeo and why we’d consider separating out the business that, at the moment, is our best performer.

  • This Is Not One of Our Typically Lengthy Write-Ups for Two Reasons 1) It's A
    Written by Farrer Wealth Private Limited. Not to be construed as investment advice, not for distribution 1 Dec 2020 Note Before reading: Dear Client - This is not one of our typically lengthy write-ups for two reasons 1) It’s a bit time sensitive; as you’ll see below, if valuations get a bit more stretched, it might not make this an ideal time to invest 2) IAC is such a well-covered company I’d just be re-hashing what others have already said, so we’re not going to repeat that, but instead provide you with other links on what we think is great research that covers the company as a whole. That said, over-time we will add to our research (and this piece), and provide you with a fuller write-up within a few months. Also as a note, the market has seen double, tripling, quadrupling of value in stocks in short periods of time this year. While this is an unusual year and that’s unlikely to continue, please note we do not expect this kind of growth in IAC stock. We believe IAC should for a core part of your portfolio, as it will in ours and as a substitute for long-term holds such as Berkshire Hathaway/S&P 500. Background: IAC, is an American Holding company that in one version or another has existed since 1986. Its entire strategy is to buy, build, and spinoff leading internet properties, in a strategy where it dubs itself “The anti-conglomerate.” It has owned famous brands such as Expedia, Ticketmaster, Hotels.com, TripAdvisor, Match.com (which owns Tinder, OkCupid, Match, etc).
