LIBERTY INTERACTIVE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Liberty Interactive Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries (collectively, "Liberty" or the "Company" unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Liberty, through its ownership of interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the video and on-line commerce industries in North America, Europe and Asia.

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods have been included. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparability with current period presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Liberty's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Liberty considers (i) fair value measurement, (ii) accounting for income taxes, (iii) assessments of other-than-temporary declines in fair value of its investments and (iv) estimates of retail-related adjustments and allowances to be its most significant estimates.

Liberty holds investments that are accounted for using the equity method. Liberty does not control the decision making process or business management practices of these affiliates. Accordingly, Liberty relies on management of these affiliates to provide it with accurate financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP that Liberty uses in the application of the equity method. In addition, Liberty relies on audit reports that are provided by the affiliates' independent auditors on the financial statements of such affiliates. The Company is not aware, however, of any errors in or possible misstatements of the financial information provided by its equity affiliates that would have a material effect on Liberty's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liberty has entered into certain agreements with Liberty Media Corporation ("LMC"), a separate publicly traded company, neither of which has any stock ownership, beneficial or otherwise, in the other, in order to govern relationships between the companies. These agreements include a Reorganization Agreement, Services Agreement, Facilities Sharing Agreement and Tax Sharing Agreement.

The Reorganization Agreement provides for, among other things, provisions governing the relationship between Liberty and LMC, including certain cross-indemnities. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, LMC provides Liberty with certain general and administrative services including legal, tax, accounting, treasury and investor relations support. Liberty reimburses LMC for direct, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by LMC in providing these services and for Liberty's allocable portion of costs associated with any shared services or personnel based on an estimated percentage of time spent providing services to Liberty. Under the Facilities Sharing Agreement, LMC shares office space and related amenities at its corporate headquarters with Liberty. Under these various agreements, approximately $3 million and $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and $6 million and $8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were reimbursable to LMC. The Tax Sharing Agreement provides for the allocation and indemnification of tax liabilities and benefits between Liberty, LMC and Starz (former parent of LMC) and other agreements related to tax matters.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

On October 10, 2013, Liberty announced that its board had authorized management to pursue a plan to recapitalize its Interactive Group tracking stock into two new tracking stocks, one (currently the Liberty Interactive common stock) to be renamed the QVC Group common stock and the other to be designated as the Liberty Digital Commerce common stock. The Digital Commerce Group would have had attributed to it Liberty's subsidiaries Provide Commerce, Inc. ("Provide"), Backcountry.com, Inc. ("Backcountry"), Bodybuilding.com, LLC ("Bodybuilding"), CommerceHub and Evite.com ("Evite"), along with cash and certain liabilities. The QVC Group, which is currently known as the Interactive Group, would have attributed to it Liberty’s subsidiary QVC, Inc. and its approximate 38% interest in HSN, Inc., along with cash and certain liabilities.

On July 30, 2014, Liberty announced the execution of a definitive agreement under which FTD Companies, Inc. ("FTD") will acquire Provide. Under the terms of the $430 million transaction, Liberty will receive 10.2 million shares of FTD common stock representing approximately 35% of the combined company and $121 million in cash. FTD and Liberty expect to complete the transaction by the end of 2014. Liberty still plans to create the QVC Group tracking stock but in light of the pending Provide transaction, and other factors, management is reevaluating the optimal structure and best alignment of the Digital Commerce Group assets. As a result, the timing of the transition to the QVC Group has been delayed.

Additionally, on October 10, 2013, Liberty announced that its board has also authorized management to pursue a plan to spin-off to holders of its Liberty Ventures common stock shares of a newly formed company called Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, Inc. (“Trip Holdings”). Trip Holdings would be comprised of, among other things, Liberty’s 22% economic and 57% voting interest in TripAdvisor, as well as BuySeasons, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and an anticipated initial corporate level net debt balance of $350 million.

(2)   Tracking Stocks

A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole. Liberty has two tracking stocks—Liberty Interactive common stock and Liberty Ventures common stock, which are intended to track and reflect the economic performance of the Interactive Group and Ventures Group, respectively. While the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stocks have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and are not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

The term "Ventures Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Ventures Group is primarily comprised of TripAdvisor, a consolidated subsidiary, and interests in Expedia, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc., Tree.com, Inc., investments in Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc., as well as cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,141 million (at June 30, 2014). The Ventures Group also has attributed to it certain liabilities related to our corporate indebtedness (see note 9) and certain deferred tax liabilities. The Ventures Group is primarily focused on the maximization of the value of these investments and investing in new business opportunities.

The term "Interactive Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Interactive Group is primarily focused on video and e-commerce operating businesses and has attributed to it the remainder of Liberty's businesses and assets, including operating subsidiaries QVC, Inc. ("QVC"), Provide, Backcountry, Bodybuilding, BuySeasons, Evite and CommerceHub as well as interests in HSN, Inc., and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $692 million (at June 30, 2014), which includes subsidiary cash. The Interactive Group has attributed to it liabilities that reside with

QVC and the other entities listed as well as certain liabilities related to our corporate indebtedness (see note 9) and certain deferred tax liabilities.

See Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for unaudited attributed financial information for Liberty's tracking stock groups.

(3) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has granted to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock grants and options to purchase shares of Liberty common stock (collectively, "Awards"). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity classified Award (such as stock options and restricted stock grants) based on the grant-date fair value of the Award, and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the Award). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for a liability classified Award (such as stock appreciation rights that will be settled in cash) based on the current fair value of the Award, and remeasures the fair value of the Award at each reporting date.

Included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are the following amounts of stock-based compensation, a portion of which relates to TripAdvisor as discussed below:

	Three months ended June 30,			Six months ended June 30,
	2014		2013	2014	2013
	(amounts in millions)
Operating expense	$	7	5	14	13
Selling, general and administrative expense	36		39	71	73
	$	43	44	85	86

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Liberty granted, primarily to QVC employees, 1.8 million options to purchase shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock. Such options had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $12.06 per share and vest semi-annually over the 4 year vesting period.

The Company has calculated the grant-date fair value for all of its equity classified Awards and any subsequent remeasurement of its liability classified Awards using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of Liberty's stock and the implied volatility of publicly traded Liberty options. The Company uses a zero dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject options.

Liberty—Outstanding Awards

The following tables present the number and weighted average exercise price ("WAEP") of the Awards to purchase Liberty Interactive and Liberty Ventures common stock granted to certain officers, employees and directors of the Company.

There was no activity during the period for the outstanding Series B awards.

As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Liberty outstanding equity Awards was approximately $127 million, including compensation associated with the option exchange that occurred in December 2012. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years.

TripAdvisor - Stock-based Compensation

TripAdvisor has outstanding options and restricted stock which are exercisable into their common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor issued approximately 491 thousand of primarily service based stock options under their 2011 Incentive Plan with a weighted average exercise price per option of $96.45 and a weighted average estimated grant-date fair value per option of $47.25. Approximately 834 thousand equity awards were exercised during the period at a weighted average exercise price of $33.46. As of June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor has 8.9 million options outstanding of which 4.0 million are exercisable with weighted average exercise prices of $43.79 and $31.79, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of these outstanding and exercisable options was $578 million and $306 million, respectively. TripAdvisor stock-based compensation was approximately $17 million and $13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and was approximately $34 million and $30 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested TripAdvisor stock options was approximately $99 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.0 years.

Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor granted approximately 513 thousand service based RSUs under their 2011 Incentive Plan for which the fair value was measured based on the quoted price of TripAdvisor common stock at the date of grant. As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related

to 1.3 million unvested TripAdvisor RSUs was approximately $57 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.2 years.

Other

Certain of the Company's other subsidiaries have stock based compensation plans under which employees and non-employees are granted options or similar stock based awards. Awards made under these plans vest and become exercisable over various terms. The awards and compensation recorded, if any, under these plans is not significant to Liberty.

(4) Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented.

Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive Common Stock

Excluded from diluted EPS, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, are 2 million potential common shares because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

Series A and Series B Liberty Ventures Common Stock

As discussed in note 10, Liberty completed a two for one stock split on April 11, 2014 therefore all prior period outstanding share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for comparability. Excluded from diluted EPS, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, are less than a million potential common shares because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

(5) Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

For assets and liabilities required to be reported at fair value, GAAP provides a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

	Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2014				Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2013
Description	Total		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)	Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)	Total	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)	Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)
	amounts in millions
Cash equivalents	$	1,316	1,316	—	918	918	—
Short term marketable securities	$	657	106	551	543	62	481
Available-for-sale securities	$	1,271	1,127	144	1,497	1,047	450
Debt	$	2,497	—	2,497	2,355	—	2,355

The majority of the Company's Level 2 financial assets and liabilities are debt instruments with quoted market prices that are not considered to be traded on "active markets," as defined in GAAP.

Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Financial Instruments

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments are comprised of changes in the fair value of the following:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2014			2013		2014		2013
	amounts in millions
Fair Value Option Securities	$	90		112		80		336

(6) Investments in Available-for-Sale Securities and Other Cost Investments

All marketable equity and debt securities held by the Company are classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") and are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. GAAP permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments, such as AFS securities, and certain other items at fair value and to recognize the changes in fair value of such instruments in the entity's statement of operations (the "fair value option"). In prior years, Liberty has historically entered into economic hedges for certain of its non-strategic AFS securities (although such instruments were not accounted for as fair value hedges by the Company). Changes in the fair value of these economic hedges were reflected in Liberty's statements of operations as unrealized gains (losses). In order to better match the changes in fair value of the subject AFS securities and the changes in fair value of the corresponding economic hedges in the Company's financial statements, Liberty elected the fair value option for those of its AFS securities which it considered to be non-strategic ("Fair Value Option Securities"). Accordingly, changes in the fair value of Fair Value Option Securities, as determined by quoted market prices, are reported in realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in AFS securities, the majority of which are considered Fair Value Option Securities, and other cost investments are summarized as follows:

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013

(8) Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

	QVC		E-commerce		TripAdvisor	Total
	amounts in millions
Balance at January 1, 2014	$	5,312	560		3,460	9,332

Impairment and other	—		(10	)	—	(10	)
Balance at June 30, 2014	$	5,324	550		3,565	9,439

(1) During the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor completed three acquisitions for total cash consideration of $152 million, net of cash acquired. The total cash consideration is subject to adjustment based on the finalization of working capital adjustments and amounts retained with payment subject to certain indemnification obligations by the respective sellers. TripAdvisor acquired Vacation Home Rentals, a U.S.-based vacation rental website featuring properties around the world; London-based Tripbod, a travel community that helps connect travelers to local experts to deliver travelers relevant recommendations for trip planning; and Lafourchette, a provider of an online and mobile reservations platform for restaurants in France, Spain and Switzerland. The initial purchase price allocation resulted in the following: $6 million in cash and other net assets, $66 million in amortizable intangible assets, $105 million in goodwill, and $17 million in net deferred tax liabilities. The purchase price allocation of these acquisitions are preliminary and subject to revision as more information becomes available and final valuations are available, but in any case will not be revised beyond 12 months after the acquisition date.

Intangible Assets Subject to Amortization

Amortization expense for intangible assets with finite useful lives was $193 million and $196 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $383 million and $388 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Based on its amortizable intangible assets as of June 30, 2014, Liberty expects that amortization expense will be as follows for the next five years (amounts in millions):

Remainder of 2014	$	379
2015	$	679
2016	$	569
2017	$	391
2018	$	92

QVC Senior Secured Notes

On March 18, 2014, QVC, a consolidated subsidiary of Liberty, issued $400 million principal amount of new 3.125% senior secured notes due 2019 at an issue price of 99.828% and $600 million principal amount of new 4.85% senior secured notes due 2024 at an issue price of 99.927% (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes are secured by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repay indebtedness under QVC’s senior secured credit facility and f

or working capital and other general corporate purposes. QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants related to its outstanding senior secured notes at June 30, 2014.

QVC Bank Credit Facilities

The interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the QVC Bank Credit Facilities was 1.9% at June 30, 2014. Availability under the QVC Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at June 30, 2014 was $1.9 billion. QVC was in compliance with all debt covenants related to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at June 30, 2014.

Exchangeable Senior Debentures

Liberty has elected to account for the exchangeable senior debentures using the fair value option. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized as unrealized gains (losses) in the statements of operations. Liberty will review the terms of the debentures on a quarterly basis to determine whether a triggering event has occurred to require current classification of the exchangeables upon a call event. As of June 30, 2014 the balance of the 4% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2029, the 3.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2030 and the 3.5% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2031 have been classified as current.

Other Subsidiary Debt

Other subsidiary debt at June 30, 2014 is comprised of capitalized satellite transponder lease obligations and bank debt of certain subsidiaries.

Fair Value of Debt

Liberty estimates the fair value of its debt based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rate offered to Liberty for debt of the same remaining maturities (Level 2). The fair value of Liberty's publicly traded debt securities that are not reported at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014 are as follows (amounts in millions):

Senior debentures	$	883
QVC senior secured notes	$	4,006

Due to the variable rate nature, Liberty believes that the carrying amount of its other debt, not discussed above, approximated fair value at June 30, 2014.

(10) Stockholders' Equity

As of June 30, 2014, Liberty reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding stock options approximately 30.3 million shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock, 432 thousand shares of Series B Liberty Interactive common stock, 1.8 million shares of Series A Liberty Ventures common stock and 44 thousand shares of Series B Liberty Ventures common stock.

In addition to the Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive and Liberty Ventures common stock there are 4 billion shares of Series C Liberty Interactive and 200 million shares of Series C Liberty Ventures common stock authorized for issuance. As of June 30, 2014, no shares of any Series C Liberty Interactive or Liberty Ventures common stock were issued or outstanding.

On February 27, 2014, Liberty's board approved a two for one stock split of Series A and Series B Liberty Ventures common stock, effected by means of a dividend. The stock split was done in order to bring Liberty into compliance with a Nasdaq listing requirement regarding the minimum number of publicly held shares of the Series B Liberty Ventures common stock. In the stock split, a dividend was paid on April 11, 2014 of one share of Series A or Series B Liberty Ventures common stock to holders of each share of Series A or Series B Liberty Ventures common

stock, respectively, held by them as of 5:00 pm, New York City time, on April 4, 2014. The stock split has been recorded retroactively for all periods presented for comparability purposes.

(11) Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

On June 20, 2013, TripAdvisor entered into an additional lease to move its headquarters to Needham, Massachusetts in 2015. TripAdvisor is the deemed owner (for accounting purposes only) of the new building during the construction period under build to suit lease accounting. As building construction began in the fourth quarter of 2013, TripAdvisor recorded estimated project construction costs incurred by the landlord as an asset and a corresponding long term liability in ‘‘Property and equipment, at cost’’ and ‘‘Other liabilities,’’ respectively, in the condensed combined balance sheets. The asset and corresponding long term liability will increase as additional building costs are incurred by the landlord during the construction period. At the completion of construction of the new building (estimated to be May 2015), the lease will be evaluated in order to determine whether or not it meets the criteria for ‘‘sale-leaseback’’ treatment. From the beginning of construction through June 30, 2014 approximately $40 million has been capitalized.

Litigation

Liberty has contingent liabilities related to legal and tax proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Liberty may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. In the opinion of management, it is expected that amounts, if any, which may be required to satisfy such contingencies will not be material in relation to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

(12) Information About Liberty's Operating Segments

Liberty, through its ownership interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the video and on-line commerce industries. Liberty identifies its reportable segments as (A) those consolidated subsidiaries that represent 10% or more of its consolidated annual revenue, annual Adjusted OIBDA or total assets and (B) those equity method affiliates whose share of earnings represent 10% or more of Liberty's annual pre-tax earnings.

Liberty evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to its operating segments based on financial measures such as revenue, Adjusted OIBDA, gross margin, average sales price per unit, number of units shipped and revenue or sales per customer equivalent. In addition, Liberty reviews nonfinancial measures such as unique website visitors, conversion rates and active customers, as appropriate.

Liberty defines Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses excluding all stock-based compensation. Liberty believes this measure is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, including each business's ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and restructuring and impairment charges that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Liberty generally accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current prices.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Liberty has identified the following consolidated subsidiaries as its reportable segments:

• QVC - a consolidated subsidiary that markets and sells a wide variety of consumer products in the United States and several foreign countries, primarily by means of its televised shopping programs and via the Internet through its domestic and international websites and mobile applications.

• TripAdvisor, Inc. - a consolidated subsidiary that is an online travel research company that empowers users to plan and maximize their travel experience.

Additionally, for presentation purposes, Liberty is providing financial information of the E-commerce businesses on an aggregated basis. The consolidated E-commerce businesses do not contribute significantly to the overall operations of Liberty on an individual basis; however, Liberty believes that on an aggregated basis they provide relevant information for users of these financial statements. While these businesses may not meet the aggregation criteria under relevant accounting literature Liberty believes the information is relevant and helpful for a more complete understanding of the consolidated results.

• E-commerce - the aggregation of certain consolidated subsidiaries that market and sell a wide variety of consumer products via the Internet. Categories of consumer products include perishable and personal gift offerings (Provide), active lifestyle gear and clothing (Backcountry), fitness and health goods (Bodybuilding), celebration offerings from invitations to costumes (BuySeasons and Evite) and a drop-ship solutions company (CommerceHub).

Liberty's operating segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each segment requires different technologies, distribution channels and marketing strategies. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Company's summary of significant accounting policies in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding our business, product and marketing strategies; new service offerings; the proposed creation of the QVC Group tracking stock; the reevaluation of the Liberty Digital Commerce Group tracking stock; the proposed spin-off of our interest in TripAdvisor, Inc.; revenue growth at QVC, Inc. ("QVC"); the recoverability of our goodwill and other long-lived assets; our projected sources and uses of cash; and the anticipated non-material impact of certain contingent liabilities related to legal and tax proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. The following include some but not all of the factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated:

• customer demand for our products and services and our ability to adapt to changes in demand;

• competitor responses to our products and services;

• increased digital TV penetration and the impact on channel positioning of our networks;

• the levels of online traffic to our businesses' websites and our ability to convert visitors into customers or contributors;

• uncertainties inherent in the development and integration of new business lines and business strategies;

• our future financial performance, including availability, terms and deployment of capital;

• our ability to successfully integrate and recognize anticipated efficiencies and benefits from the businesses we acquire;

• the ability of suppliers and vendors to deliver products, equipment, software and services;

• the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation;

• availability of qualified personnel;

• changes in, or failure or inability to comply with, government regulations, including, without limitation, regulations of the Federal Communications Commission, and adverse outcomes from regulatory proceedings;

• changes in the nature of key strategic relationships with partners, distributors, suppliers and vendors;

• general economic and business conditions and industry trends;

• consumer spending levels, including the availability and amount of individual consumer debt;

• advertising spending levels;

• changes in distribution and viewing of television programming, including the expanded deployment of personal video recorders, video on demand and IP television and their impact on home shopping programs;

• rapid technological changes;

• failure to protect the security of personal information about our customers, subjecting us to costly government enforcement actions or private litigation and reputational damage;

• the regulatory and competitive environment of the industries in which we operate;

• threatened terrorist attacks and ongoing military action in the Middle East and other parts of the world; and

• fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and political unrest in international markets.

For additional risk factors, please see Part I, Item 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. These forward-looking statements and such risks, uncertainties and other factors speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained herein, to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto, or any other change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

The following discussion and analysis provides information concerning our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Overview

We own controlling and non-controlling interests in a broad range of video and on-line commerce companies. Our largest business, which is also our principal reportable segment, is QVC, Inc. ("QVC"). QVC markets and sells a wide variety of consumer products in the United States and several foreign countries, primarily by means of its televised shopping programs and via the Internet through its domestic and international websites and mobile applications. We also own a controlling interest in TripAdvisor, Inc. ("TripAdvisor"), a separate reportable segment, which is an online travel company that empowers users to plan and maximize their travel experience by aggregating reviews and opinions of members about destinations, accommodations, restaurants and activities throughout the world. Additionally, we own entire or majority interests in consolidated subsidiaries which operate on-line commerce businesses in a broad range of retail categories. The more significant of these include Backcountry.com, Inc. ("Backcountry"), Bodybuilding.com, LLC ("Bodybuilding"), Provide Commerce, Inc. ("Provide"), BuySeasons, Inc. ("BuySeasons"), Evite, Inc. ("Evite") and CommerceHub. Backcountry operates websites offering sports gear and clothing for outdoor and active individuals in a variety of categories. Bodybuilding manages websites related to sports nutrition, body building and fitness. BuySeasons and Evite operate websites that offer costumes, accessories, décor, party supplies and invitations. Provide operates an e-commerce marketplace of websites for perishable goods, including flowers, fruits and desserts, as well as upscale personalized gifts. CommerceHub operates a drop-ship solution which allows different software systems from both sides of the transaction to more easily access the data necessary to fulfill orders.

Our "Corporate and Other" category includes our corporate ownership interests in other unconsolidated businesses and corporate expenses. We hold ownership interests in Expedia, Inc., HSN, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc. and Tree.com, Inc. which we account for as equity method investments; and we continue to maintain investments and related financial instruments in public companies such as Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc., which are accounted for at their respective fair market values and are included in "Corporate and Other."

The term "Ventures Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Ventures Group is comprised primarily of our consolidated subsidiary TripAdvisor and interests in Expedia, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc., Tree.com, Inc., investments in Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc., as well as cash and cash equivalents in the amount of approximately $1,141 million (at June 30, 2014). The Ventures Group also has attributed to it certain liabilities related to our corporate level indebtedness (see note 9 in the accompanying financial statements) and certain deferred tax liabilities. The Ventures Group is primarily focused on the maximization of the value of these investments and investing in new business opportunities.

The term "Interactive Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Interactive Group is primarily focused on our video and e-commerce operating businesses and has attributed to it the remainder of our businesses and assets, including our operating subsidiaries QVC, Provide, Backcountry, Bodybuilding, BuySeasons, Evite and CommerceHub as well as our interest in HSN, Inc. and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $692 million (at June 30, 2014), including subsidiary cash. The Interactive Group has attributed to it liabilities that reside with QVC and the other entities listed as well certain liabilities related to our corporate level indebtedness (see note 9 in the accompanying financial statements) and certain deferred tax liabilities.

Revenue.    Our consolidated revenue increased6.5% or $171 million and increased4.4% or $235 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The three month increase was primarily due to the increased revenue at TripAdvisor ($76 million), increased revenue at QVC ($53 million) and the E-commerce companies ($42 million). The six month increase was primarily due to the increased revenue at TripAdvisor ($127 million), increased revenue at QVC ($65 million) and the E-commerce

I- 24

companies ($43 million). See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of the results of operations of certain of our subsidiaries.

Adjusted OIBDA.    We define Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses and selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses excluding all stock-based compensation. Our chief operating decision maker and management team use this measure of performance in conjunction with other measures to evaluate our businesses and make decisions about allocating resources among our businesses. We believe this is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of our businesses, including each business's ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows us to view operating results, perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes such costs as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and restructuring and impairment charges that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. See note 12 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA to Earnings (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes.

Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA increased1.9% or $11 million and increased1.6% or $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The overall Adjusted OIBDA growth for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to the increased operating results at TripAdvisor of $16 million and increased QVC results of $5 million. These increases were partially offset by a decline in the E-commerce results of $7 million. The overall Adjusted OIBDA growth for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to the increased operating results at TripAdvisor of $29 million and increased QVC results of $13 million. These increases were partially offset by a decline in the E-commerce results of $23 million. See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of the results of operations of certain of our subsidiaries.

Stock-based compensation.    Stock-based compensation includes compensation related to (1) options and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") for shares of our common stock that are granted to certain of our officers and employees, (2) phantom stock appreciation rights ("PSARs") granted to officers and employees of certain of our subsidiaries pursuant to private equity plans and (3) amortization of restricted stock grants.

We recorded $43 million and $44 million of stock-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We recorded $85 million and $86 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Liberty equity awards was approximately $127 million. Such amount will be recognized in our consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years. Additionally, as of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested TripAdvisor stock options was approximately $99 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.0 years.

Operating income.    Our consolidated operating income increased1.8% or $5 million and increased1.8% or $10 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The overall increase in operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was due to the increased results at TripAdvisor of $17 million, a portion of which was due to reduced amortization of intangibles from purchase accounting during the period, and Corporate and other of $3 million, partially offset by the decline in operating income at QVC of $1 million and the E-commerce companies of $14 million. The overall increase in operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was due to the increased results at TripAdvisor of $38 million, a portion of which was due to reduced amortization of intangibles from purchase accounting during the period, and Corporate and other of $7 million, partially offset by the decline in operating income at QVC of $1 million, the E-commerce companies of $34 million. See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of the results of operations of certain of our subsidiaries.

Other Income and Expense

Components of Other income (expense) are presented in the table below.

Consolidated Liberty other income (expense)	$	(134	)	(91	)	(252	)	(324	)

Interest expense.    Interest expense increased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and slightly decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase in the Interactive Group interest expense is primarily attributable to QVC's issuance of $400 million principal amount of new 3.125% senior secured notes and $600 million principal amount of new 4.85% senior secured notes on March 18, 2014. The decrease in the Ventures Group interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year is attributable to the retirement of the 3.25% exchangeable senior debentures due 2031 and 3.125% exchangeable senior debentures due 2023 during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Share of earnings (losses) of affiliates.    The following table presents our share of earnings (losses) of affiliates:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2014			2013		2014		2013
	amounts in millions
Interactive Group
HSN, Inc.	$	9		11		31		31

Total Ventures Group	(3		)	3		(26	)	(24	)
Consolidated Liberty	$	4		7		2		(4	)

I- 26

The share of loss in the other category of the Ventures Group, in all periods, is primarily related to our investments in alternative energy solution entities. These entities typically operate at a loss and because we account for these investments as equity method affiliates we record our share of such losses. We note these entities typically have favorable tax attributes and credits which are recorded in our tax accounts.

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments.    Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments are comprised of changes in the fair value of the following:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2014			2013		2014		2013
	amounts in millions
Fair Value Option Securities	$	90		112		80		336
Exchangeable senior debentures	(131		)	(106	)	(146	)	(416	)
Other derivatives	—			3		—		16
	$	(41	)	9		(66	)	(64	)

The changes in realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments is due to market activity through the period on the various financial instruments that are marked to market on a periodic basis.

Other, net. QVC retired approximately $731 million of its Senior Secured Notes during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The notes were redeemed at a premium which resulted in an approximate $57 million loss on the

extinguishment of such instruments, primarily due to the premiums paid for the redemptions.

Income taxes.    We had income tax expense of $49 million and $43 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We had income tax expense of $97 million and $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Income tax amounts were lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35%, in all periods, primarily due to tax credits and favorable tax attributes generated by our alternative energy investments and earnings in foreign jurisdictions subject to tax rates lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate.

Net earnings.    We had net earnings of $106 million and $150 million for the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and net earnings of $216 million and $203 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.. The change in net earnings was the result of the above-described fluctuations in our revenue, expenses and other gains and losses.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

While the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group are not separate legal entities and the assets and liabilities attributed to each group remain assets and liabilities of our consolidated company, we manage the liquidity and financial resources of each group separately. Keeping in mind that assets of one group may be used to satisfy liabilities of the other group, the following discussion assumes, consistent with management expectations, that future liquidity needs of each group will be funded by the financial resources attributed to each respective group.

As of June 30, 2014, substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents are invested in U.S. Treasury securities, other government agencies, AAA rated money market funds and other highly rated financial and corporate debt instruments.

The following are potential sources of liquidity: available cash balances, cash generated by the operating activities of our privately-owned subsidiaries (to the extent such cash exceeds the working capital needs of the subsidiaries and is not otherwise restricted), proceeds from asset sales, monetization of our public investment portfolio, debt (including availability under the QVC Bank Credit Facility) and equity issuances, and dividend and interest receipts.

During the quarter there have been no significant changes to our corporate or subsidiary debt credit ratings.

I- 27

As of June 30, 2014, Liberty's liquidity position consisted of the following:

		Cash and cash equivalents		Marketable securities	Fair Value Option AFS Securities
		amounts in millions
QVC		$	548	—	—
E-commerce		78		—	—
Corporate and other		66		11	—
	Total Interactive Group	692		11	—
TripAdvisor		587		51	83
Corporate and other		554		595	1,188
	Total Ventures Group	1,141		646	1,271
	Total Liberty	$	1,833	657	1,271

To the extent that the Company recognizes any taxable gains from the sale of assets we may incur tax expense and be required to make tax payments, thereby reducing any cash proceeds. Additionally, we have borrowing capacity of $1.9 billion under the QVC credit facility at June 30, 2014. The Company has a controlling interest in TripAdvisor (through a 57% voting interest and board representation), TripAdvisor is a separate public company with a significant non-controlling interest, as the Company only has a 22% economic interest. Decision making with respect to TripAdvisor must consider the minority holders and therefore the Company does not have ready access to TripAdvisor's cash as it would with a wholly-owned subsidiary. As of June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor and QVC had approximately $300 million and $322 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents held in foreign subsidiaries which certain tax consequences could reduce the amount of cash that would be available for domestic purposes.

Additionally, our operating businesses have generated, on average, more than $1 billion in annual cash provided by operating activities over the prior three years and we do not anticipate any significant reductions in that amount in future periods.

		Six months ended June 30,
		2014			2013
Cash Flow Information		amounts in millions
	Net cash provided (used) by operating activities	$	1,087		447
	Net cash provided (used) by investing activities	$	(117	)	235
	Net cash provided (used) by financing activities	$	(391	)	(1,865	)

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Liberty's primary uses of cash were $1,764 million of repayments on outstanding debt and repurchases of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock of $478 million. These activities were funded primarily from borrowings of $1,900 million, net sales of short term and other marketable securities of $165 million, cash provided by operating activities and cash on hand.

The projected uses of Liberty cash are the continued capital improvement spending of approximately $200 million for the remainder of the year, approximately $170 million for interest payments on outstanding debt, the potential buyback of common stock under the approved share buyback program (subsequent to quarter end we made additional repurchases of approximately 3.2 million shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock for approximately $93 million through July 31, 2014) and additional investments in existing or new businesses. We also may be required to make net payments of income tax liabilities to settle items under discussion with tax authorities. We expect that cash on hand and cash provided by operating activities and borrowing capacity in future periods will be sufficient to fund projected uses of cash.

I- 29

QVC's consolidated net revenue increased 2.7% and 1.7% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The three month increase in net revenue was primarily comprised of $25 million due to a 1.1% increase in units sold, $13 million due to a 0.6% increase in consolidated average selling price per unit ("ASP") and $20 million in favorable foreign currency exchange rates in all countries except Japan. These amounts were offset primarily by a decrease of $3 million in shipping and handling revenue. The six month increase in net revenue was primarily comprised of $36 million due to a 0.8% increase in ASP, $26 million due to a 0.6% increase in units sold and $14 million in favorable foreign currency rates in all countries except Japan. These amounts were negatively impacted by unfavorable returns in the U.S., partially offset by favorability in Germany. The increase in the returns in the U.S. was primarily due to adjustments to prior period estimates based on actual experience, whereas the decrease in Germany was primarily due to lower returns in all categories and a positive mix shift from the apparel and jewelry categories to home, which typically returns at lower rates.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the changes in revenue and expenses were affected by changes in the exchange rates for the Japanese Yen, the Euro and the U.K. Pound Sterling. In the event the U.S. Dollar strengthens against these foreign currencies in the future, QVC's revenue and operating cash flow will be negatively affected.

The percentage increase (decrease) in net revenue for each of QVC's geographic areas in U.S. Dollars and in local currency was as follows:

	Three months ended June 30, 2014				Six months ended June 30, 2014
	U.S. Dollars		Local currency		U.S. Dollars		Local currency
QVC-U.S.	3.0	%	3.0	%	1.8	%	1.8	%
QVC-Japan	(14.2	)%	(11.1	)%	(11.4	)%	(5.0	)%
QVC-Germany	9.7	%	4.7	%	4.4	%	0.1	%
QVC-U.K.	16.3	%	5.8	%	17.1	%	7.9	%
QVC-Italy	17.2	%	8.6	%	10.0	%	5.6	%

QVC-U.S.' net revenue growth for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to a 3.1% increase in units shipped and a 1.2% increase in ASP, partially offset by an increase in estimated product returns due to adjustments to prior period estimates based on actual experience. QVC-U.S.' net revenue growth for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to a 2.2% increase in units shipped and a 0.9% increase in ASP, partially offset by the increase in estimated product returns as discussed in the above paragraph. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, QVC-U.S. experienced shipped sales growth primarily in the home, apparel, and accessories categories partially offset by declines in electronics. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, QVC-Japan's shipped sales in local currency declined in all categories except electronics. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the declines in QVC-Japan's shipped sales in local currency were primarily due to a local consumption tax increase that became effective April 1, 2014. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, QVC-Germany's shipped sales in local currency increased primarily in the home category, somewhat offset by declines in apparel and jewelry. For both periods presented, QVC-Germany was also positively impacted by favorable return rates as discussed in the above paragraph. For the three month period ended June 30, 2014, QVC-U.K.'s shipped sales growth in local currency increased in the beauty, apparel and accessories categories, partially offset by declines in electronics and to a lesser extent in the home category. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, QVC-U.K.'s shipped sales growth in local currency increased in all categories except electronics. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, QVC-Italy's shipped sales growth in local currency primarily increased in the beauty, accessories and apparel categories which were partially offset by a decline in the home category.

QVC's future net revenue growth will primarily depend on international expansion, sales growth from e-commerce and mobile platforms, additions of new customers from households already receiving QVC's television programming and increased spending from existing customers. QVC's future net revenue may also be affected by (i) the willingness of cable television and direct-to-home satellite system operators to continue carrying QVC's programming service; (ii) QVC's ability to maintain favorable channel positioning, which may become more difficult due to governmental

I- 30

action or from distributors converting analog customers to digital; (iii) changes in television viewing habits because of personal video recorders, video-on-demand and Internet video services; and (iv) general economic conditions.

QVC's gross profit percentage was 37.9% and 37.4% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 37.4% and 37.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the gross profit margins increased primarily due to increased product margins in the U.S. and the U.K.

QVC's operating expenses are principally comprised of commissions, order processing and customer service expenses, credit card processing fees, telecommunications expenses and production costs. Operating expenses increased $9 million or 5.3% and increased $14 million or 4.1% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the variance was primarily due to an increase in programming and production expenses of $2 million, an increase in commission expenses of $2 million, an increase in customer service expenses in the U.S. and Germany of $2 million and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of $2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the variance was primarily due to an increase in commission expenses of $4 million, an increase in programming and production expenses of $4 million, an increase in customer service expenses in the U.S. and Germany of $2 million, an increase in credit card fees of $1 million and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of $1 million.

For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the increase in programming and production expenses was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs in the U.S. The increase in commission expenses was primarily due to higher programming distribution expenses in Japan and the sales increases in the U.S. The increase in customer service expenses in Germany was primarily due to the launch of the new European systems platform that created some short-term disruptions and resulted in additional talk times. The increase in customer service expenses in the US was primarily volume related associated with the sales increases.

QVC's SG&A expenses include personnel, information technology, provision for doubtful accounts, credit card income and marketing and advertising expenses. Such expenses increased $16 million and increased $11 million, and as a percent of net revenue, from 6.6% to 7.2% and from 7.0% to 7.1% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, due to a variety of factors.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the variance was primarily due to an increase in outside services of $8 million, higher personnel costs of $5 million, higher marketing expenses of $4 million, a higher provision for doubtful accounts of $3 million and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of $2 million. These amounts were primarily offset by an increase in credit card income of $5 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the variance was primarily due to an increase in outside services of $11 million, higher marketing expenses of $9 million, and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of $3 million. These amounts were primarily offset by an increase in credit card income of $7 million and a decrease in personnel costs of $5 million.

For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the increase in outside services was primarily driven by information technology and commerce platform projects and global market expansion expenses in the U.S. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the increase in personnel costs was primarily due to merit, benefits and bonus increases in the U.S., Germany and the U.K. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the decrease in personnel costs was primarily due to a reduction in U.S. bonus expense and a prior year personnel tax accrual in Germany. For both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the increase in marketing expenses was primarily due to online and social media campaigns. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the increase in the provision for doubtful accounts was primarily due to the Easy-Pay installment program in the U.S. The QVC Easy-Pay Plan (known as Q Pay in Germany) permits customers to pay for items in two or more installments. When the QVC Easy-Pay Plan is offered by QVC and elected by the customer, the first installment is billed to the customer’s credit card upon shipment. Generally, the customer’s credit card is subsequently billed up to five additional monthly installments until the total purchase price of the products has been billed by QVC. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the increase in credit card income was primarily due to higher bank reserve requirements associated with the U.S. regulatory environment in the prior year impacting the overall economics of the portfolio. QVC-U.S. amended and restated its agreement with a large consumer financial services company (the "Bank") pursuant to which the Bank provides revolving credit directly

I- 31

to QVC's customers for the sole purpose of purchasing merchandise or services with a QVC branded credit card. The agreement provides more favorable economic terms for QVC and is effective August 1, 2014.

TripAdvisor, Inc. Our economic ownership interest in TripAdvisor is 22% but Liberty's results include the consolidation of TripAdvisor's entire operations with 78% of TripAdvisor's net income (loss), including purchase accounting adjustments, being attributed to the noncontrolling interest in such line item in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. TripAdvisor is a separate publicly traded company and additional information about TripAdvisor can be obtained through its website and its public filings. We believe a discussion of TripAdvisor's stand alone results promotes a better understanding of overall results of their business. TripAdvisor's revenue, Adjusted OIBDA and operating income on a standalone basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (see tables below for a reconciliation of TripAdvisor's standalone results to those amounts reported by Liberty):

	Three months ended June 30,			Six months ended June 30,

Revenue

Revenue increased $76 million and $127 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to an increase in click-based advertising revenue of $52 million and $80 million, respectively. The primary driver of the increase in click-based advertising revenue was an increase in hotel shoppers of 17% and 14%, respectively, and an increase in revenue per hotel shopper of 11% and 8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Display-based advertising increased by $6 million and $13 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, primarily as a result of a 11% and 19% increase in the number of impressions sold, due to increased sales productivity, and an increase in pricing by 4% and 2%, coupled with worldwide growth particularly in emerging markets when compared to the same periods in 2013, respectively. Subscription, transaction and other revenue increased by $18 million and $34 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, primarily due to growth in the Business Listings and Vacation Rentals products.

I- 32

Adjusted OIBDA

Operating expense

The most significant driver of operating expense is technology and content costs which increased $9 million and $18 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013. This was primarily due to increased personnel costs from increased headcount to support business growth, including international expansion and enhanced site features, as well as additional personnel costs related to employees joining TripAdvisor through recent business acquisitions.

Selling, general and administrative

Direct selling and marketing costs increased $37 million and $50 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to increased SEM costs, other traffic acquisition costs, and offline advertising costs partially offset by a decrease in spending in social media. The primary driver of the increase in offline advertising costs is related to a new television campaign that was launched in May 2014 and have spent $10 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Personnel and overhead costs increased $7 million and $16 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013. This is primarily due to an increase in headcount to support business growth, including international expansion and employees joining TripAdvisor through recent business acquisitions, and also increased stock-based compensation costs.

General and administrative costs increased $7 million and $10 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013. This increase resulted primarily from increased personnel costs and office rental costs related to an increase in headcount to support the business operations.

Operating Income (Loss)

Operating income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, on a standalone basis, was impacted by the above explanations impacting Adjusted OIBDA offset slightly by an increase in the amortization of capitalized web development costs and to a lesser extent amortization of intangible assets, acquired in recent acquisitions. The increase in operating income on a consolidated basis (as reconciled below) was the result of a decrease in amortization associated with purchase accounting adjustments as the amortization is on an accelerated basis in-line with the anticipated utilization of such intangibles acquired.

The following is a reconciliation of the results as reported by TripAdvisor, used for comparison purposes as discussed above, for a greater understanding of the standalone operations of TripAdvisor to the results reported by Liberty (amounts in millions):

	Three months ended June 30, 2014					Six months ended June 30, 2014

E-commerce businesses.    Our E-commerce businesses are comprised primarily of Provide, Backcountry, Bodybuilding, BuySesons, Evite and CommerceHub. Revenue for the E-commerce businesses is seasonal due to certain holidays and seasons, which drive a significant portion of the e-commerce businesses' revenue. The third quarter is generally lower, as compared to the other three quarters, due to fewer holidays.

Revenue increased $42 million and $43 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. All of the E-commerce businesses increased revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2014 with the exception of the Buyseasons and Evite businesses which experienced a decrease in revenue as they have reassessed their businesses and focused on more profitable channels and cost containment. Provide, Backcountry and Bodybuilding all experienced lower than anticipated revenue growth due to softness in demand for their products and slightly lower average order values.

Adjusted OIBDA for the E-commerce businesses decreased$7 million and $23 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, representing 4.0% and 4.5% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to 5.9% and 7.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in Adjusted OIBDA as a percentage of revenue was due to increased technology and personnel costs at these subsidiaries to support anticipated revenue growth which did not materialize during the periods, slightly lower product margins, somewhat due to increased packaging costs and returns during the period, and increased marketing spend during the first half of the year that has not provided the sales growth expected. In addition the first quarter was impacted by a large storm on the east coast that disrupted delivery efforts and also impacted top line sales as well.

Operating income decreased $14 million and $34 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease in operating income was primarily attributable to the items discussed above as well as slightly higher amortization and depreciation and the impairment of intangibles at one of our subsidiaries, Evite, offset slightly by a stock based compensation expense decrease during the second quarter of 2014 as valuations of certain subsidiaries were lowered based on slower than anticipated growth.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business due to our ongoing investing and financial activities and the conduct of operations by our subsidiaries in different foreign countries. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in stock prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing and investment activities, which include investments in fixed and floating rate debt instruments and borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations. The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt are expected to vary as a result of future requirements, market conditions and other factors. We manage our exposure to interest rates by maintaining what we believe is an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We believe this best protects us from interest rate risk. We have achieved this mix by (i) issuing fixed rate debt that we believe has a low stated interest rate and significant term to maturity, (ii) issuing variable rate debt with appropriate maturities and interest rates and (iii) entering into interest rate swap arrangements when we deem appropriate. As of June 30, 2014, our debt is comprised of the following amounts:

I- 34

	Variable rate debt				Fixed rate debt
	Principal amount		Weighted average interest rate		Principal amount		Weighted average interest rate
	dollar amounts in millions
Liberty Interactive
QVC	$	65	1.9	%	$	3,892	5.5	%
Corporate and other	$	72	2.5	%	$	1,204	5.9	%
Liberty Ventures
TripAdvisor	$	353	2.1	%	$	—	—	%
Corporate and other	$	—	—	%	$	2,086	2.5	%

We are exposed to changes in stock prices primarily as a result of our significant holdings in publicly traded securities. We continually monitor changes in stock markets, in general, and changes in the stock prices of our holdings, specifically. We believe that changes in stock prices can be expected to vary as a result of general market conditions, technological changes, specific industry changes and other factors. We periodically use equity collars and other financial instruments to manage market risk associated with certain investment positions. These instruments are recorded at fair value based on option pricing models.

At June 30, 2014, the fair value of our AFS equity securities was $1,275 million. Had the market price of such securities been 10% lower at June 30, 2014, the aggregate value of such securities would have been $128 million lower. Our investments in Expedia and HSN, Inc. are publicly traded securities and are accounted for as equity method affiliates, which are not reflected at fair value in our balance sheet. The aggregate fair value of such securities was $3,004 million at June 30, 2014 and had the market price of such securities been 10% lower at June 30, 2014, the aggregate value of such securities would have been $300 million lower. Such changes in value are not directly reflected in our statement of operations. Additionally, our exchangeable senior debentures are also subject to market risk. Because we mark these instruments to fair value each reporting date, increases in the stock price of the respective underlying security and decreases in interest rates generally result in higher liabilities and unrealized losses in our statement of operations.

Liberty is exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations related primarily to the monetary assets and liabilities and the financial results of QVC's foreign subsidiaries. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries for which the functional currency is the local currency are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and the statements of operations are generally translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Exchange rate fluctuations on translating foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars that result in unrealized gains or losses are referred to as translation adjustments. Cumulative translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded based on exchange rates at the time such transactions arise. Subsequent changes in exchange rates result in transaction gains and losses, which are reflected in income as unrealized (based on period-end translations) or realized upon settlement of the transactions. Cash flows from our operations in foreign countries are translated at the average rate for the period. Accordingly, Liberty may experience economic loss and a negative impact on earnings and equity with respect to our holdings solely as a result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

We periodically assess the effectiveness of our derivative financial instruments. With regard to interest rate swaps, we monitor the fair value of interest rate swaps as well as the effective interest rate the interest rate swap yields, in comparison to historical interest rate trends. We believe that any losses incurred with regard to interest rate swaps would be largely offset by the effects of interest rate movements on the underlying debt facilities. These measures allow our management to evaluate the success of our use of derivative instruments and to determine when to enter into or exit from derivative instruments.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its chief executive officer and its principal accounting and financial officer (the "Executives"), of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Executives concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Share Repurchase Programs

On several occasions our board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program for our Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock. On each of May 5, 2006, November 3, 2006 and October 30, 2007 our board authorized the repurchase of $1 billion of Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock for a total of $3 billion. These previous authorizations remained effective following the LMC Split-Off, notwithstanding the fact that the Liberty Interactive common stock ceased to be a tracking stock during the period following the LMC Split-Off and prior to the creation of our Liberty Ventures common stock in August 2012. On February 22, 2012 the board authorized the repurchase of an additional $700 million of Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock. Additionally, on each of October 30, 2012 and February 27, 2014, the board authorized the repurchase of an additional $1 billion of Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock.

A summary of the repurchase activity for the three months ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:

	Series A Liberty Interactive Common Stock
Period	(a) Total Number of Shares Purchased	(b) Average Price Paid per Share		(c) Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	(d) Maximum Number (or Approximate Dollar Value) of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs
April 1 - 30, 2014	2,909,860	$	29.15	2,909,860	$873 million
May 1 - 31, 2014	3,222,100	$	28.65	3,222,100	$780 million
June 1 - 30, 2014	3,031,328	$	29.17	3,031,328	$692 million
Total	9,163,288			9,163,288

In addition to the shares listed in the table above, 122 shares of Series A Liberty Ventures common stock were surrendered by certain of our officers and employees to pay withholding taxes and other deductions in connection with the vesting of their restricted stock during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Notes to Attributed Financial Information

(unaudited)

(1) The Interactive Group is comprised of our consolidated subsidiaries QVC, Inc., Provide Commerce, Inc., Backcountry.com, Inc., Bodybuilding.com, LLC, BuySeasons, Evite and CommerceHub and our interest in HSN, Inc. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Interactive Group includes the foregoing investments, as well as the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of those consolidated subsidiaries. We have also attributed certain of our debt obligations (and related interest expense) to the Interactive Group based upon a number of factors, including the cash flow available to the Interactive Group and its ability to pay debt service and our assessment of the optimal capitalization for the Interactive Group. The specific debt obligations attributed to each of the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group are described in note 4 below. In addition, we have allocated certain corporate general and administrative expenses among the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group as described in note 5 below.

The Interactive Group focuses on video and on-line commerce businesses. Accordingly, we expect that businesses that we may acquire in the future that we believe are complementary to this strategy will also be attributed to the Interactive Group.

The Ventures Group consists of all of our businesses not included in the Interactive Group including our consolidated subsidiary TripAdvisor, Inc. and our interests in equity method investments of Expedia, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc. and Tree.com, Inc. and available-for-sale securities Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Ventures Group includes these investments. In addition, we have attributed to the Ventures Group all of our senior exchangeable debentures (and related interest expense). See note 4 below for the debt obligations attributed to the Ventures Group.

Any businesses that we may acquire in the future that we do not attribute to the Interactive Group will be attributed to the Ventures Group.

(5) Cash compensation expense for our corporate employees will be allocated between the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group based on the estimated percentage of time spent providing services for each group. On a semi-annual basis, estimated time spent will be determined through an interview process and a review of personnel duties unless transactions significantly change the composition of companies and investments in either respective group, which would require a more timely reevaluation of estimated time spent. Other general and administrative expenses will be charged

12

directly to the groups whenever possible and are otherwise allocated based on estimated usage or some other reasonably determined methodology. Amounts allocated from the Interactive Group to the Ventures Group were determined to be$4 million and $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $6 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We note that stock compensation related to each tracking stock group is determined based on actual options outstanding for each respective tracking stock group.

While we believe that this allocation method is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology or percentages used to allocate general and administrative expenses in the future.

(6) The Liberty Interactive common stock and the Liberty Ventures common stock have voting and conversion rights under our restated charter. Following is a summary of those rights. Holders of Series A common stock of each group are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Series B common stock of each group are entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of Series C common stock of each group, if issued, are entitled to 1/100th of a vote per share in certain limited cases and will otherwise not be entitled to vote. In general, holders of Series A and Series B common stock will vote as a single class. In certain limited circumstances, the board may elect to seek the approval of the holders of only Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock or the approval of the holders of only Series A and Series B Liberty Ventures common stock.

At the option of the holder, each share of Series B common stock will be convertible into one share of Series A common stock of the same group. At the discretion of our board, the common stock related to one group may be converted into common stock of the same series that is related to the other group.

(7) The intergroup payable (receivable) is primarily attributable to an allocation of intergroup income taxes payable from the Interactive Group to the Ventures Group.

Tracking Stock [Abstract]

Tracking Stocks

 Tracking Stocks

A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole. Liberty has two tracking stocks—Liberty Interactive common stock and Liberty Ventures common stock, which are intended to track and reflect the economic performance of the Interactive Group and Ventures Group, respectively. While the Interactive Group and the Ventures Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stocks have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and are not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

The term "Ventures Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Ventures Group is primarily comprised of TripAdvisor, a consolidated subsidiary, and interests in Expedia, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc., Tree.com, Inc., investments in Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc., as well as cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,141 million (at June 30, 2014). The Ventures Group also has attributed to it certain liabilities related to our corporate indebtedness (see note 9) and certain deferred tax liabilities. The Ventures Group is primarily focused on the maximization of the value of these investments and investing in new business opportunities.

The term "Interactive Group" does not represent a separate legal entity, rather it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to that group. The Interactive Group is primarily focused on video and e-commerce operating businesses and has attributed to it the remainder of Liberty's businesses and assets, including operating subsidiaries QVC, Inc. ("QVC"), Provide, Backcountry, Bodybuilding, BuySeasons, Evite and CommerceHub as well as interests in HSN, Inc., and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $692 million (at June 30, 2014), which includes subsidiary cash. The Interactive Group has attributed to it liabilities that reside with QVC and the other entities listed as well as certain liabilities related to our corporate indebtedness (see note 9) and certain deferred tax liabilities.

See Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for unaudited attributed financial information for Liberty's tracking stock groups.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Liberty Interactive Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries (collectively, "Liberty" or the "Company" unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Liberty, through its ownership of interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the video and on-line commerce industries in North America, Europe and Asia.

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods have been included. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparability with current period presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Liberty's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Liberty considers (i) fair value measurement, (ii) accounting for income taxes, (iii) assessments of other-than-temporary declines in fair value of its investments and (iv) estimates of retail-related adjustments and allowances to be its most significant estimates.

Liberty holds investments that are accounted for using the equity method. Liberty does not control the decision making process or business management practices of these affiliates. Accordingly, Liberty relies on management of these affiliates to provide it with accurate financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP that Liberty uses in the application of the equity method. In addition, Liberty relies on audit reports that are provided by the affiliates' independent auditors on the financial statements of such affiliates. The Company is not aware, however, of any errors in or possible misstatements of the financial information provided by its equity affiliates that would have a material effect on Liberty's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liberty has entered into certain agreements with Liberty Media Corporation ("LMC"), a separate publicly traded company, neither of which has any stock ownership, beneficial or otherwise, in the other, in order to govern relationships between the companies. These agreements include a Reorganization Agreement, Services Agreement, Facilities Sharing Agreement and Tax Sharing Agreement.

The Reorganization Agreement provides for, among other things, provisions governing the relationship between Liberty and LMC, including certain cross-indemnities. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, LMC provides Liberty with certain general and administrative services including legal, tax, accounting, treasury and investor relations support. Liberty reimburses LMC for direct, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by LMC in providing these services and for Liberty's allocable portion of costs associated with any shared services or personnel based on an estimated percentage of time spent providing services to Liberty. Under the Facilities Sharing Agreement, LMC shares office space and related amenities at its corporate headquarters with Liberty. Under these various agreements, approximately $3 million and $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and $6 million and $8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were reimbursable to LMC. The Tax Sharing Agreement provides for the allocation and indemnification of tax liabilities and benefits between Liberty, LMC and Starz (former parent of LMC) and other agreements related to tax matters.

On October 10, 2013, Liberty announced that its board had authorized management to pursue a plan to recapitalize its Interactive Group tracking stock into two new tracking stocks, one (currently the Liberty Interactive common stock) to be renamed the QVC Group common stock and the other to be designated as the Liberty Digital Commerce common stock. The Digital Commerce Group would have had attributed to it Liberty's subsidiaries Provide Commerce, Inc. ("Provide"), Backcountry.com, Inc. ("Backcountry"), Bodybuilding.com, LLC ("Bodybuilding"), CommerceHub and Evite.com ("Evite"), along with cash and certain liabilities. The QVC Group, which is currently known as the Interactive Group, would have attributed to it Liberty’s subsidiary QVC, Inc. and its approximate 38% interest in HSN, Inc., along with cash and certain liabilities.

On July 30, 2014, Liberty announced the execution of a definitive agreement under which FTD Companies, Inc. ("FTD") will acquire Provide. Under the terms of the $430 million transaction, Liberty will receive 10.2 million shares of FTD common stock representing approximately 35% of the combined company and $121 million in cash. FTD and Liberty expect to complete the transaction by the end of 2014. Liberty still plans to create the QVC Group tracking stock but in light of the pending Provide transaction, and other factors, management is reevaluating the optimal structure and best alignment of the Digital Commerce Group assets. As a result, the timing of the transition to the QVC Group has been delayed.

Additionally, on October 10, 2013, Liberty announced that its board has also authorized management to pursue a plan to spin-off to holders of its Liberty Ventures common stock shares of a newly formed company called Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, Inc. (“Trip Holdings”). Trip Holdings would be comprised of, among other things, Liberty’s 22% economic and 57% voting interest in TripAdvisor, as well as BuySeasons, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and an anticipated initial corporate level net debt balance of $350 million.

Leases

On June 20, 2013, TripAdvisor entered into an additional lease to move its headquarters to Needham, Massachusetts in 2015. TripAdvisor is the deemed owner (for accounting purposes only) of the new building during the construction period under build to suit lease accounting. As building construction began in the fourth quarter of 2013, TripAdvisor recorded estimated project construction costs incurred by the landlord as an asset and a corresponding long term liability in ‘‘Property and equipment, at cost’’ and ‘‘Other liabilities,’’ respectively, in the condensed combined balance sheets. The asset and corresponding long term liability will increase as additional building costs are incurred by the landlord during the construction period. At the completion of construction of the new building (estimated to be May 2015), the lease will be evaluated in order to determine whether or not it meets the criteria for ‘‘sale-leaseback’’ treatment. From the beginning of construction through June 30, 2014 approximately $40 million has been capitalized.

Litigation

Liberty has contingent liabilities related to legal and tax proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Liberty may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. In the opinion of management, it is expected that amounts, if any, which may be required to satisfy such contingencies will not be material in relation to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Assets And Liabilities Measured At Fair Value

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

For assets and liabilities required to be reported at fair value, GAAP provides a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

	Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2014				Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2013
Description	Total		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)	Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)	Total	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)	Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)
	amounts in millions
Cash equivalents	$	1,316	1,316	—	918	918	—
Short term marketable securities	$	657	106	551	543	62	481
Available-for-sale securities	$	1,271	1,127	144	1,497	1,047	450
Debt	$	2,497	—	2,497	2,355	—	2,355

The majority of the Company's Level 2 financial assets and liabilities are debt instruments with quoted market prices that are not considered to be traded on "active markets," as defined in GAAP.

Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Financial Instruments

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments are comprised of changes in the fair value of the following:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2014			2013		2014		2013

Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented.

Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive Common Stock

Excluded from diluted EPS, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, are 2 million potential common shares because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

As discussed in note 10, Liberty completed a two for one stock split on April 11, 2014 therefore all prior period outstanding share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for comparability. Excluded from diluted EPS, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, are less than a million potential common shares because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

Information About Liberty's Operating Segments

Information About Liberty's Operating Segments

Information About Liberty's Operating Segments

Information About Liberty's Operating Segments

Liberty, through its ownership interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the video and on-line commerce industries. Liberty identifies its reportable segments as (A) those consolidated subsidiaries that represent 10% or more of its consolidated annual revenue, annual Adjusted OIBDA or total assets and (B) those equity method affiliates whose share of earnings represent 10% or more of Liberty's annual pre-tax earnings.

Liberty evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to its operating segments based on financial measures such as revenue, Adjusted OIBDA, gross margin, average sales price per unit, number of units shipped and revenue or sales per customer equivalent. In addition, Liberty reviews nonfinancial measures such as unique website visitors, conversion rates and active customers, as appropriate.

Liberty defines Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses excluding all stock-based compensation. Liberty believes this measure is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, including each business's ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and restructuring and impairment charges that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Liberty generally accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current prices.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Liberty has identified the following consolidated subsidiaries as its reportable segments:

• QVC - a consolidated subsidiary that markets and sells a wide variety of consumer products in the United States and several foreign countries, primarily by means of its televised shopping programs and via the Internet through its domestic and international websites and mobile applications.

• TripAdvisor, Inc. - a consolidated subsidiary that is an online travel research company that empowers users to plan and maximize their travel experience.

Additionally, for presentation purposes, Liberty is providing financial information of the E-commerce businesses on an aggregated basis. The consolidated E-commerce businesses do not contribute significantly to the overall operations of Liberty on an individual basis; however, Liberty believes that on an aggregated basis they provide relevant information for users of these financial statements. While these businesses may not meet the aggregation criteria under relevant accounting literature Liberty believes the information is relevant and helpful for a more complete understanding of the consolidated results.

• E-commerce - the aggregation of certain consolidated subsidiaries that market and sell a wide variety of consumer products via the Internet. Categories of consumer products include perishable and personal gift offerings (Provide), active lifestyle gear and clothing (Backcountry), fitness and health goods (Bodybuilding), celebration offerings from invitations to costumes (BuySeasons and Evite) and a drop-ship solutions company (CommerceHub).

Liberty's operating segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each segment requires different technologies, distribution channels and marketing strategies. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Company's summary of significant accounting policies in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

(1) During the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor completed three acquisitions for total cash consideration of $152 million, net of cash acquired. The total cash consideration is subject to adjustment based on the finalization of working capital adjustments and amounts retained with payment subject to certain indemnification obligations by the respective sellers. TripAdvisor acquired Vacation Home Rentals, a U.S.-based vacation rental website featuring properties around the world; London-based Tripbod, a travel community that helps connect travelers to local experts to deliver travelers relevant recommendations for trip planning; and Lafourchette, a provider of an online and mobile reservations platform for restaurants in France, Spain and Switzerland. The initial purchase price allocation resulted in the following: $6 million in cash and other net assets, $66 million in amortizable intangible assets, $105 million in goodwill, and $17 million in net deferred tax liabilities. The purchase price allocation of these acquisitions are preliminary and subject to revision as more information becomes available and final valuations are available, but in any case will not be revised beyond 12 months after the acquisition date.

Intangible Assets Subject to Amortization

Amortization expense for intangible assets with finite useful lives was $193 million and $196 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $383 million and $388 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Based on its amortizable intangible assets as of June 30, 2014, Liberty expects that amortization expense will be as follows for the next five years (amounts in millions):

Remainder of 2014	$	379

Investments In Available-For-Sale Securities And Other Cost Investments

Investments in available-for-sale securities and other cost investments

Investments in Available-for-Sale Securities and Other Cost Investments

All marketable equity and debt securities held by the Company are classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") and are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. GAAP permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments, such as AFS securities, and certain other items at fair value and to recognize the changes in fair value of such instruments in the entity's statement of operations (the "fair value option"). In prior years, Liberty has historically entered into economic hedges for certain of its non-strategic AFS securities (although such instruments were not accounted for as fair value hedges by the Company). Changes in the fair value of these economic hedges were reflected in Liberty's statements of operations as unrealized gains (losses). In order to better match the changes in fair value of the subject AFS securities and the changes in fair value of the corresponding economic hedges in the Company's financial statements, Liberty elected the fair value option for those of its AFS securities which it considered to be non-strategic ("Fair Value Option Securities"). Accordingly, changes in the fair value of Fair Value Option Securities, as determined by quoted market prices, are reported in realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in AFS securities, the majority of which are considered Fair Value Option Securities, and other cost investments are summarized as follows:

QVC Senior Secured Notes

On March 18, 2014, QVC, a consolidated subsidiary of Liberty, issued $400 million principal amount of new 3.125% senior secured notes due 2019 at an issue price of 99.828% and $600 million principal amount of new 4.85% senior secured notes due 2024 at an issue price of 99.927% (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes are secured by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repay indebtedness under QVC’s senior secured credit facility and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants related to its outstanding senior secured notes at June 30, 2014.

QVC Bank Credit Facilities

The interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the QVC Bank Credit Facilities was 1.9% at June 30, 2014. Availability under the QVC Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at June 30, 2014 was $1.9 billion. QVC was in compliance with all debt covenants related to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at June 30, 2014.

Exchangeable Senior Debentures

Liberty has elected to account for the exchangeable senior debentures using the fair value option. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized as unrealized gains (losses) in the statements of operations. Liberty will review the terms of the debentures on a quarterly basis to determine whether a triggering event has occurred to require current classification of the exchangeables upon a call event. As of June 30, 2014 the balance of the 4% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2029, the 3.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2030 and the 3.5% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2031 have been classified as current.

Other Subsidiary Debt

Other subsidiary debt at June 30, 2014 is comprised of capitalized satellite transponder lease obligations and bank debt of certain subsidiaries.

Fair Value of Debt

Liberty estimates the fair value of its debt based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rate offered to Liberty for debt of the same remaining maturities (Level 2). The fair value of Liberty's publicly traded debt securities that are not reported at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014 are as follows (amounts in millions):

Senior debentures	$	883
QVC senior secured notes	$	4,006

Due to the variable rate nature, Liberty believes that the carrying amount of its other debt, not discussed above, approximated fair value at June 30, 2014

(1) During the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor completed three acquisitions for total cash consideration of $152 million, net of cash acquired. The total cash consideration is subject to adjustment based on the finalization of working capital adjustments and amounts retained with payment subject to certain indemnification obligations by the respective sellers. TripAdvisor acquired Vacation Home Rentals, a U.S.-based vacation rental website featuring properties around the world; London-based Tripbod, a travel community that helps connect travelers to local experts to deliver travelers relevant recommendations for trip planning; and Lafourchette, a provider of an online and mobile reservations platform for restaurants in France, Spain and Switzerland. The initial purchase price allocation resulted in the following: $6 million in cash and other net assets, $66 million in amortizable intangible assets, $105 million in goodwill, and $17 million in net deferred tax liabilities. The purchase price allocation of these acquisitions are preliminary and subject to revision as more information becomes available and final valuations are available, but in any case will not be revised beyond 12 months after the acquisition date.

Stock-Based Compensation

Share-based Compensation [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has granted to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock grants and options to purchase shares of Liberty common stock (collectively, "Awards"). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity classified Award (such as stock options and restricted stock grants) based on the grant-date fair value of the Award, and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the Award). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for a liability classified Award (such as stock appreciation rights that will be settled in cash) based on the current fair value of the Award, and remeasures the fair value of the Award at each reporting date.

Included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are the following amounts of stock-based compensation, a portion of which relates to TripAdvisor as discussed below:

	Three months ended June 30,			Six months ended June 30,
	2014		2013	2014	2013
	(amounts in millions)
Operating expense	$	7	5	14	13
Selling, general and administrative expense	36		39	71	73
	$	43	44	85	86

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Liberty granted, primarily to QVC employees, 1.8 million options to purchase shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock. Such options had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $12.06 per share and vest semi-annually over the 4 year vesting period.

The Company has calculated the grant-date fair value for all of its equity classified Awards and any subsequent remeasurement of its liability classified Awards using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of Liberty's stock and the implied volatility of publicly traded Liberty options. The Company uses a zero dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject options.

Liberty—Outstanding Awards

The following tables present the number and weighted average exercise price ("WAEP") of the Awards to purchase Liberty Interactive and Liberty Ventures common stock granted to certain officers, employees and directors of the Company.

	Liberty Interactive
	Series A (000's)		WAEP		Weighted average remaining life	Aggregate intrinsic value (millions)

Exercisable at June 30, 2014	1,033		$	28.15	4.4 years	$47

There was no activity during the period for the outstanding Series B awards.

As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Liberty outstanding equity Awards was approximately $127 million, including compensation associated with the option exchange that occurred in December 2012. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years.

TripAdvisor - Stock-based Compensation

TripAdvisor has outstanding options and restricted stock which are exercisable into their common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor issued approximately 491 thousand of primarily service based stock options under their 2011 Incentive Plan with a weighted average exercise price per option of $96.45 and a weighted average estimated grant-date fair value per option of $47.25. Approximately 834 thousand equity awards were exercised during the period at a weighted average exercise price of $33.46. As of June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor has 8.9 million options outstanding of which 4.0 million are exercisable with weighted average exercise prices of $43.79 and $31.79, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of these outstanding and exercisable options was $578 million and $306 million, respectively. TripAdvisor stock-based compensation was approximately $17 million and $13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and was approximately $34 million and $30 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested TripAdvisor stock options was approximately $99 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.0 years.

Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, TripAdvisor granted approximately 513 thousand service based RSUs under their 2011 Incentive Plan for which the fair value was measured based on the quoted price of TripAdvisor common stock at the date of grant. As of June 30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to 1.3 million unvested TripAdvisor RSUs was approximately $57 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.2 years.

Other

Certain of the Company's other subsidiaries have stock based compensation plans under which employees and non-employees are granted options or similar stock based awards. Awards made under these plans vest and become exercisable over various terms. The awards and compensation recorded, if any, under these plans is not significant to Liberty.
