ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
During the first quarter of 2014, IAC/InterActiveCorp (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) realigned its reportable segments as follows:
| |
• | The Company has created a new segment called "The Match Group" that includes Match, which was previously reported as its own separate segment, and DailyBurn and Tutor, which were previously in the Media and Other segments, respectively. |
| |
• | The businesses within the Local segment, HomeAdvisor, Felix and, for periods prior to July 1, 2013, CityGrid Media, were moved to the eCommerce segment, formerly called the Other segment. |
| |
• | There have been no changes to the Search & Applications segment. |
In addition, the Company is introducing Adjusted EBITDA, a new non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, beginning with the first quarter of 2014. Going forward, the Company plans to regularly report Adjusted EBITDA and will no longer report Operating Income Before Amortization. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Moreover, our management uses this measure internally to evaluate the performance of our business as a whole and our individual business segments.
Attached and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 99.1 is certain financial information of the Company reflecting the changes in the Company’s reportable segments using Adjusted EBITDA, the Company’s new non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. The exhibit also contains a description of the reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and operating income, the comparable U.S. GAAP measure.
This supplemental financial information is being furnished by the Registrant pursuant to Regulation FD. The information set forth in Exhibit 99.1 refers to a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G.
