Business OVERVIEW Who We Are IAC operates Vimeo, Dotdash and Care.com, among many other businesses, and also has majority ownership of both Match Group, which includes Tinder, Match, PlentyOfFish and OkCupid, and ANGI Homeservices, which includes HomeAdvisor, Angie’s List and Handy. As used herein, “IAC,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar terms refer to IAC/InterActiveCorp and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise). Our History IAC, initially a hybrid media/electronic retailing company, was incorporated in 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 to 2005, we acquired a number of e-commerce companies, including Ticketmaster Group, Hotel Reservations Network (later renamed Hotels.com), Expedia.com, Match.com, LendingTree, Hotwire, TripAdvisor and AskJeeves. In 2005, we completed the separation of our travel and travel related businesses and investments into an independent public company called Expedia, Inc. (now known as Expedia Group, Inc.). In 2008, we separated into five independent, publicly traded companies: IAC, HSN, Inc. (now part of Qurate Retail, Inc.), Interval Leisure Group, Inc. (now part of Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation), Ticketmaster (now part of Live Nation, Inc.) and Tree.com, Inc. From 2008 to 2014, we continued to invest in and acquire e-commerce companies, including Meetic, About.com (now known as Dotdash), Dictionary.com and Investopedia. In 2015, we acquired Plentyoffish Media Inc. and completed the initial public offering of Match Group, Inc. In 2016: (i) we acquired a controlling interest in MyHammer Holding AG, a leading home services platform in Germany, and (iii) through Vimeo, we acquired VHX, a platform for premium over-the-top (OTT) subscription video channels. In 2017: (i) we completed the combination of the businesses in our former HomeAdvisor segment with those of Angie’s List, Inc. under a new publicly traded holding company that we control, ANGI Homeservices Inc. ("ANGI Homeservices"), (ii) we acquired controlling interests in HomeStars Inc and MyBuilder Limited, leading home services platforms in Canada and the United Kingdom , respectively, and (iii) through Vimeo, we acquired Livestream Inc., a leading live video solution. In 2018, we: (i) we acquired Handy Technologies, Inc., a leading platform in the United States for connecting consumers looking for household services (primarily cleaning and handyman services) with top-quality, pre-screened independent service professionals, through ANGI Homeservices, (ii) acquired a controlling interest in Bluecrew, a technology driven staffing platform exclusively for flexible W-2 work, and (iii) sold our Dictionary.com business, the television business of Electus (including Notional), and our Felix and CityGrid businesses. In 2019, IAC made a $250 million investment in Turo, a leading peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace, and acquired a controlling interest in Nursefly, a temporary health care staffing platform. In addition, through Vimeo, we acquired Magisto, a video creation service enabling businesses and consumers to create short-form videos. On December 19, 2019, IAC entered into a Transaction Agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") with Match Group, Inc., IAC Holdings, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of IAC ("New IAC"), and Valentine Merger Sub LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of IAC. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement, the businesses of Match Group, Inc. will be separated from the remaining businesses of IAC through a series of transactions that will result in: (i) the pre-transaction stockholders of IAC owning shares in two, separate public companies (IAC, which will be renamed Match Group, Inc. ("New Match") and which will own the businesses of Match Group, Inc. and certain IAC financing subsidiaries, and New IAC, which will be renamed IAC/InterActiveCorp and which will own IAC's other businesses), and (ii) the pre- transaction stockholders of Match Group, Inc. (other than IAC) owning shares in New Match (the "Separation"). Completion of the Separation, which is expected to occur in mid-second quarter of 2020, is subject to a number of conditions, including 2 approval by a majority of the disinterested shareholders of Match Group, Inc., approval of IAC’s shareholders and other customary conditions and approvals.
