Notes to Consolidated Financial Results


⁽¹⁾	On May 30, 2014, we acquired HowStuffWorks ("HSW"). The Search and Content segment, formerly known as the Search segment, includes the financial results of HSW beginning on May 30, 2014.


⁽²⁾	On January 31, 2012, we acquired TaxACT, Inc. As a highly seasonal business, almost all of the TaxACT revenue is generated in the first four months of the calendar year. Amounts for 2012 represented the results of operations for the TaxACT business from January 31, 2012 to December 31, 2012.


⁽³⁾	On August 22, 2013, we acquired Monoprice, Inc. Amounts for 2013 represented the results of operations for the Monoprice business from August 22, 2013 to December 31, 2013.


⁽⁴⁾	We do not allocate certain general and administrative costs (including personnel and overhead costs), stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, other income/loss, net, or income tax benefit/expense to the reportable segments. The general and administrative costs are included in Unallocated Corporate Operating Expense.


⁽⁵⁾	Amount in 2012 included $1.1 million in transaction costs related to the TaxACT acquisition.


⁽⁶⁾	Amount for 3Q13 included $0.6 million in transaction costs related to the Monoprice acquisition.


⁽⁷⁾	Amount in 2012 included $5.2 million in stock-based compensation in association with the modification of the terms of a warrant and the vesting of non-employee performance-based stock options upon completion of the TaxACT acquisition.


⁽⁸⁾	In 3Q13, $0.5 million in stock-based compensation was recorded in association with the vesting of performance-based stock options upon completion of the Monoprice acquisition.


⁽⁹⁾	In 2Q14, $0.3 million in stock-based compensation was recorded in association with the vesting of performance-based stock options upon completion of the HSW acquisition.


⁽¹⁰⁾	Amount for 3Q13 included $1.0 million related to amortization of acquired intangible assets related to the Monoprice acquisition.


⁽¹¹⁾	Amount for 2Q14 included $0.2 million related to amortization of acquired intangible assets related to the HSW acquisition.


⁽¹²⁾	Interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs, and accretion of debt discounts included amounts associated with the Convertible Senior Notes issued on March 15, 2013.


⁽¹³⁾	Warrant was exercised during 4Q13.

⁽¹⁴⁾

Amounts represent the non-cash portion of income tax expense from continuing operations. We exclude the non-cash portion of income tax expense because of our ability to offset a substantial portion of our cash tax liabilities by using deferred tax assets, which consist primarily of US federal net operating losses. The majority of these deferred tax assets will expire, if unutilized, between 2020 and 2024.


⁽¹⁵⁾	Calculation excluded the income effect of a dilutive derivative instrument and the Convertible Senior Notes in 1Q13. Related to the Notes, we received shareholder approval for flexible settlement in May 2013.


⁽¹⁶⁾	Calculation in 3Q13 used 43,142,000 diluted shares due to non-GAAP net income.


⁽¹⁷⁾	Calculation in 4Q13 used 45,716,000 diluted shares due to non-GAAP net income.


⁽¹⁸⁾	2012 included the TaxACT 2012 credit facility, issued in January 2012 in connection with the TaxACT acquisition and refinanced during 3Q13 on more favorable terms (the TaxACT 2013 credit facility), 1Q13 included the Convertible Senior Notes issued in March 2013, and 4Q13 included the Monoprice 2013 credit facility issued in November 2013.

⁽¹⁾	For definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and their relationship to our GAAP financial statements, please see Note 1 to our Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures in exhibit 99.1 to the August 7, 2014 Current Report on Form 8-K.


⁽²⁾	As presented in the Preliminary Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (unaudited).

⁽³⁾

Other loss, net primarily includes items such as interest income, interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs, accretion of debt discounts, loss on debt extinguishment and modification expense, gains or losses on derivative instrument, other-than-temporary impairment losses on equity investments, and adjustments to the fair values of contingent liabilities related to business combinations.

⁽⁴⁾

We define Non-GAAP net income differently effective with 1Q13 to include accretion of debt discount on Convertible Senior notes and effective with 3Q13 to include other-than-temporary impairment losses on equity investments and loss on debt extinguishment and modification expense. Our new definition of non-GAAP net income did not impact presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure for prior periods.
