NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 AND 2000

(As Restated — See Note 12)

1.        Basis of Presentation

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s operations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary to present fairly such financial statements.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10–K/A for the year ended December 31, 2000.

We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the 2001 presentation.

2.        Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2001, ACTV adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended by SFAS 137 and 138 ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded in the balance sheet at fair value. The provisions of SFAS 133 affected the Company's accounting for its investment of 2.5 million restricted warrants for Liberty Livewire Corporation ("Livewire"). Prior to the adoption of SFAS 133, those warrants were carried at cost. With the adoption of SFAS 133, the Livewire investment is recorded at fair value. This resulted in the Company recording a cumulative effect transition adjustment loss of $58.7 million at January 1, 2001. Beginning in the first quarter of 2001, the Company records subsequent changes in the fair value of this investment in the statement of operations.

There may be periods with significant non-cash increases or decreases to the Company's net income/loss related to the changes in the fair value of the Livewire Investment. The carrying value of the Company's derivative instrument approximates fair value. The fair value of the Livewire investment is determined by reference to underlying market values resulting from trading of Livewire on a national securities exchange and on estimates using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

3.        Financing Activities

On March 27, 2000, Liberty Digital, Inc. invested an additional $20 million in the Company, increasing its investment to 16%, by exercising a warrant granted in March 1999.

On February 3, 2000, the Company completed a follow–on offering of 4.6 million common shares, including 0.6 million common shares to cover the over–allotments of our underwriters, Credit Suisse First Boston, Bear Stearns & Co. Inc., Lehman Brothers, and Salomon Smith Barney. The 4.6 million total common shares were priced to the public at $30 per share, for total gross proceeds of $138 million. We paid underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.80 per share, or $8.28 million, resulting in net proceeds of $28.20 per share, or $129.4 million.

4.        Merger and Acquisition Activity

Acquisition

 

On March 7, 2001, the Company acquired all of the assets and business of Intellocity, Inc., (“Intellocity”) a technology and engineering solutions provider focusing on the interactive television market. The Company acquired Intellocity for 4,007,890 shares of the Company’s common stock, aggregating $23.2 million, and issued options to purchase 762,665 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $4.3 million, for an aggregate purchase price of $27.5 million. The Company could make an additional payment of up to 1.5 million shares and options contingent upon Intellocity’s achieving certain performance targets for the year ended December 31, 2001. Intellocity shareholders are subject to provisions restricting the sale of the ACTV stock; these restrictions range over 4 years. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in the first quarter of 2001.

The preliminary estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the transaction date amounted to $0.6 million.  Goodwill, representing the excess cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, was calculated to be $26.2 million and will be amortized over 7 years.  (See Note 11)  The Company is presently completing the review and determination of such fair values.  Accordingly, the allocation of the purchase price and the amount of goodwill are subject to revision, which if any, is not expected to be material.

The following table presents the proforma results of operations had the acquisition of Intellocity been completed as of January 1, 2000. The pro forma results are shown for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results which would have been reported if the business combination had occurred on the date indicated or which may occur in the future.  These pro forma amounts include estimates and assumptions that management believes are reasonable.

5.                         Minority Interest

 

We record minority interest resulting from Digital ADCO.  Digital ADCO was formed in November 1999 and co-founded by ACTV, Inc. and Motorola Broadband.  Digital ADCO develops applications for the delivery of addressable advertising.  Under the terms of our agreement with Motorola Broadband, we licensed five of our patents to Digital ADCO and Motorola Broadband licensed six of its patents and made a capital commitment to Digital ADCO.  During August 2000, Open TV made a capital contribution and contributed patents on a non-exclusive basis to Digitial ADCO.  Additionally, Digital ADCO International is being formed to license and distribute products and services outside of North America and other western hemisphere countries.  Digital ADCO, Inc.'s issued and outstanding shares of capital stock presently consist of Class A common stock, having one vote per share, and Class B common stock, having 25 votes per share.  All of Digitial ADCO's issued and outstanding shares are presently held by three investors.  Open TV currently owns the issued and outstanding Class A common shares.  ACTV, Inc. and Motorola Broadband, the co-founders of Digital ADCO, own the issued and outstanding Class B common shares.  ACTV, Inc. currently owns 45.9% of Digital ADCO and exercises voting control of the venture.

 

For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, we recorded a minority interest benefit of $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively.  For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, we recorded a minority interest benefit of $1.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The minority interest benefit for both periods is principally the result of an apportionment of the loss of our Digital ADCO subsidiary, whose results are consolidated with ours, to outside minority owners of this subsidiary.

7.        Executive Compensation

For each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, we incurred executive incentive compensation expense of $2.3 million.  This expense is related to an executive incentive compensation provision, now cancelled, which was based on changes in the market value of our common stock and paid in unregistered securities.  The compensation recognized was contingent on continued employment of the executive and subject to forfeiture.

8.        Investment in Warrant

The Company and Liberty Livewire LLC, a unit of Liberty Livewire Corporation (“Livewire”) in April 2000 entered into a joint marketing venture, “HyperTV with Livewire.” HyperTV with Livewire received the non-exclusive right to use certain patented ACTV technologies in providing turnkey convergence services, including application hosting, web authoring services, data management, e-commerce and other value–added services for advertisers, television programmers, studios and networks.

In connection with entering into the joint marketing agreement, the Company received a warrant to acquire 2,500,000 shares of Livewire at an exercise price of $30 per share. The warrant, which expires in June 2015 and includes registration rights, vests ratably over five years, beginning April 13, 2001. With certain exceptions, the warrant is not transferable. The Company previously recorded an investment and deferred revenue in the amount of $76.0 million, the estimated fair value of the warrant at the time the agreement was executed. The Company estimated the value of the warrant using the Black–Scholes pricing model. Using similar methodology, the estimated value of the warrant at June 30, 2001 was $21.5 million. The Company is currently in the process of renegotiating the joint market agreement with Livewire and expects to finalize a renegotiated agreement during the third quarter of 2001.  As a result, the Company may be required to make adjustments to the carrying value of the investment in warrant, deferred revenue, or of both during the third quarter of this year. (See Note 2)

The Company periodically estimates the value of the warrant using the Black Scholes model. The deferred revenues recorded by the Company are being amortized into revenue over a period of 21 years, the contractual term of the joint marketing venture.

9.        Supplemental Disclosure of Non-cash Activities

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000 we recorded a deferred expense of $1.5 million relating to the unamortized portion of incentive compensation paid in common stock.

The Company  recorded  a reversal of non-cash deferred stock-based compensation expense in connection with vested variable stock options of  $2.8 million and $134.2 million, respectively for the six months months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.

11.     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. These pronouncements significantly change the accounting for business combinations, goodwill, and intangible assets. SFAS No. 141 eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations and further clarifies the criteria to recognize intangible assets separately from goodwill. The requirements of SFAS No. 141 are effective for any business combination accounted for by the purchase method that is completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 states goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise).  Separable intangible assets that are not deemed

 

9



to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The amortization provisions of  SFAS No. 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, companies are required to adopt the pronouncement in their fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2001. Goodwill is currently being amortized at approximately $4.2 million annually. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the new pronouncements and has not yet determined what effects the new pronouncements will have on its financial statements.

 

12.          Restatement

 

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2000 consolidated financial statements, the Company determined that stock options granted to certain employees should be accounted for as variable plan stock options.  Accordingly, the Company has restated its financial statements to reflect the application of variable stock option accounting to the affected stock option awards.  The changes resulted in the credit to stock-based compensation expense of $4.1 million and $94.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 and $2.8 million and $134.2 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.

 

                In addition, subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2001 second quarter 10-Q, the Company determined that the investment in Livewire qualified as a derivative under SFAS No. 133. Accordingly, the Company has restated its financial statements to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 133 to the Livewire investment. The adoption resulted in the recording of a cumulative transition adjustment of $58.7 million in the first quarter of 2001 and additional credit of $13 million and $4.2 million related to the change in fair value of the underlying investment for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

We are a digital media company that provides technical and creative services, tools and proprietary applications for digital television and enhanced media. We have two operating business segments, which we call Digital TV and Enhanced Media.

 

We have developed a range of services, products and proprietary technologies for each of these business segments. ACTV’s Digital TV segment provides applications and technical and creative services to television distributors, advertisers, programmers and digital TV infrastructure companies, as they move from analog to digital systems. In addition, our Digital TV technologies enable television programmers and advertisers to create individualized programming for digital television transmission systems. We believe that these technologies are unique in providing targeting, interactivity and accountability for television commercials, and in giving viewers the ability to instantly customize their viewing experiences for a wide variety of programming applications. Our Enhanced Media technologies allow both for the enhancement of video and audio content, including standard TV programming, with Web-based information, interactivity and games. For the Enhanced Media market, we provide technology and services for synchronizing the delivery of television programming and Internet content.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Comparison of Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000

Revenues. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2001, our revenues increased 147%, to $4.2 million, compared with $1.7 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2000. In the more recent period, Enhanced Media licensing and services accounted for approximately 57% of our revenue, with Digital TV professional and technical services providing the remaining 43%. In last year’s three-month period, all of our revenues were derived from Enhanced Media licensing and services.

Total Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Total selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 21% in the second quarter of 2001, to $12.7 million, from $10.5 million in the second quarter of 2000. The increase was principally the result of increased sales, marketing, product development, staffing and facilities expense during the more recent quarter.

Stock-Based Compensation.  Stock-based compensation expense was credited $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to a credit of stock-based compensation expense of $94.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001.  The Company records a charge or credit to stock-based compensation expense based on increases in the market value of the Company's common stock in excess of the exercise price of certain employee options, which are subject to variable option accounting treatment.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 178%, to $2.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001, versus $0.9 million during the same period in 2000. The increase was the result of the depreciation of a larger fixed asset base, including leasehold improvements and equipment related to the deployment of SpotOn, and higher amortization expense for capitalized software development and for goodwill. In March 2001, we recorded additional goodwill in connection with our purchase of Intellocity.

Interest — Net. Interest income in second quarter of 2001 was $1.2 million, compared with $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2000. The decrease was the result of lower average cash balances during the more recent quarter. In February 2000, we raised approximately $129.4 million in net proceeds from a public follow-on offering. We incurred no interest expense in the second quarter of 2001, compared to interest expense of $14,527 in the second quarter of 2000. The interest expense for the 2000 quarter relates to a $5 million original face value note redeemed in May 2000, which was issued by a subsidiary of ours in January 1998.

Other Income/(Expense). Other income(expense) is the change in fair value of the investment in warrant which is now accounted for as a derivative instrument after the adoption of SFAS No. 133, and the application of its requirements.  For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded an increase in the value of the warrant of $13 million.

Net (Loss)/Income Before Extraordinary Item.  For the three months ended June 30, 2001, our net loss applicable to common stockholders was $8.1 million, or $0.15 per basic and $0.14 per diluted share, compared to the net income of $87.4 million, or $1.73 per basic share and $1.48 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2000.

Net (Loss)/Income. For the three months ended June 30, 2001, our net income after extraordinary loss was $8.1 million, or $0.15 per basic and $0.14 diluted share, compared to net income of $86.0  million, or $1.70 per basic share and $1.46 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2000.  The extraordinary loss was the result of early retirement of long-term debt on April 3, 2000.  The extraordinary loss includes a prepayment premium of $0.4 million, and the unamortized original issue discount and deferred issue costs of $0.8  million and $0.2 million, respectively, for a total loss of $1.4 million, or $0.03 per share.

Comparison of Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000

Revenues. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, our revenues increased 142%, to $7.5 million, compared with $3.1 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. In the more recent period, Enhanced Media licensing and services accounted for two-thirds of our revenue, with Digital TV professional and technical services providing the remaining third. In last year’s six-month period, all of our revenues were derived from Enhanced Media licensing and services.

Total Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Total selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 53% in the first half of 2001, to $26.7 million, from $17.4 million in the first half of 2000. The increase was principally the result of increased sales, marketing, product development, staffing and facilities expense during the more recent period.

Stock-Based Compensation.  Stock-based compensation expense was credited $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, compared to a credit of compensation expense of $134.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.  The Company records a charge or credit to compensation expense based on increases or decreases in the market value of the Company's common stock in excess of the exercise price of certain employee options, which are subject to variable option accounting treatment.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 153%, to $4.3 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, from $1.7 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. The increase was the result of depreciation of a larger fixed asset base, including leasehold improvements and equipment related to the deployment of SpotOn, and higher amortization expense for capitalized software development and for goodwill. In March 2001, we recorded additional goodwill in connection with our purchase of Intellocity, Inc.

Interest  — Net. Net interest income in first half of 2001 was $2.8 million, compared with $3.1 million in the first half of 2000. The decrease was the result of lower average cash balances during the six months ended June 30, 2001. In February 2000, we raised approximately $129.4 million in net proceeds from a public follow-on offering. We incurred no interest expense in the first half of 2001, compared to interest expense of $0.3 million in the first half of 2000. The interest expense for the 2000 quarter relates to a $5 million original face value note redeemed in May 2000, which was issued by a subsidiary of ours in January 1998.

Other Income/(Expense). Other income(expense) is the change in fair value of the investment in warrant which is now accounted for as a derivative after adoption of SFAS No. 133 and the application of its requirements.  For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded an increase in the value of the warrant of $4.2 million.

Net (Loss)/Income Before Extraordinary Item.  For the six months ended June 30, 2001, our net loss applicable to common stockholders was $12.2 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted share, compared to the net income of $121.8 million, or $2.54 per basic share and $2.00 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Cumulative Transition Effect of Change in Accounting Principle. Effective January 1, 2001, ACTV adopted FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended by SFAS 137 and 138 ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded in the balance sheet at fair value. The provisions of SFAS 133 affected the Company's accounting for its investment of 2.5 million restricted warrants for Liberty Livewire Corporation ("Livewire"). Prior to the adoption of SFAS 133, these warrants were carried at cost. With the adoption of SFAS 133, the Livewire investment is recorded at fair value.  This resulted in the Company recording a cumulative effect transition adjustment loss of $58.7 million at January 1, 2001. There may be periods with significant non-cash increases or decreases to the Company's net income/loss pertaining to the Livewire investment.

 

Net (Loss)/Income. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, our net loss after extraordinary loss was $71.0 million, or $1.31 per basic and diluted share, compared to the net income of  of $120.3 million, or $2.51 per basic share and $1.97 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2000.  The extraordinary loss was the result of early retirement of long-term debt on April 3, 2000.  The extraordinary loss includes a prepayment premium of $0.4 million, and the unamortized original issue discount and deferred issuance costs of $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for a total loss of $1.4 million, or $0.03 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, we (including our operating subsidiaries) have not generated revenues sufficient to fund our operations, and have incurred operating losses. Through June 30, 2001, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $232.7 million. Our cash position on June 30, 2001 was $86.8 million, compared to $122.5 million on December 31, 2000.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, we used $20.8 million in cash for operations, compared with $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in net cash used by operating activities in the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, as compared to the same period the previous year, was principally due to increased operating and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities and Capital Expenditures.  With regard to investing activities, in the six months ended June 30, 2001, we used cash of $13.9 million, compared to $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in the more recent period is due to greater investments in equipment and leasehold improvements, software development and strategic equity investments.

 

In April 2001, we provided $5 million in financing to Playboy.com, Inc. in the form of an 8% convertible promissory note. The note was automatically convertible into shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Playboy.com, upon the receipt of additional equity funding by Playboy.com. Playboy.com received the additional funding and the note was converted to Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on August 13, 2001.

 

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock of Playboy.com on a one-to-one basis, and may be redeemed at the holder’s option, after five years, and has customary anti-dilution provisions. Holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will receive a non-cumulative 8% per annum dividend.

 

If Playboy.com is unable to pay the redemption price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, a holder can require payment by Playboy Enterprises, Inc. In this event, Playboy Enterprises, Inc. has the option of making such payment in cash or in shares of its common stock.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities.  With regard to financing activities, in the six months ended June 30, 2001, we used cash of $0.9 million, compared to $145.7 provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The cash used in the more recent period was comprised of a $2 million loan made to Intellocity in advance of our purchase of that company, and the assignation of $1.1 million for the guarantee of letters of credit required under a facilities lease. Cash provided by financing activities of $150.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 related to a public follow-on offering completed in February 2000, the exercise of a warrant in March 2000, and a partial payment for the sale of shares in our Digital ADCO subsidiary. We used cash of $4.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 for the retirement of debt.

We met our cash needs in the six-month periods of both 2001 and 2000 primarily from the net proceeds of a public, follow-on offering completed in February 2000. Through a group of underwriters we sold total of 4.6 million common shares, resulting in net proceeds of $129.4 million. In addition, Liberty Digital, Inc. in March 2000 invested an additional $20 million in us by exercising a warrant granted in March 1999.

In August 2000, OpenTV invested $10 million in our Digital ADCO subsidiary and in late 2000 Motorola Broadband made a final payment of $1.5 million, pursuant to its share purchase obligation of $5 million upon the formation of Digital ADCO.

Impact of Inflation

Inflation has not had any significant effect on the Company’s operating costs.

Item 3.            Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's interest income is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates.  Changes in U.S. interest rates could affect the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments.  Currently, changes in U.S. interest rates would not have a material effect on the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments.  A majority of these cash equivalents and investments earn a fixed rate of interest while the remaining portion earns interest at a variable rate.  The Company does not anticipate that exposure to interest rate market risk will have a material impact on the Company due to the nature of the Company's investments.

During April 2000, the Company received a warrant to acquire 2,500,000 shares of Liberty Livewire Corporatoin ("Livewire"), a publicly traded company.  The warrant becomes exercisable at the rate of 500,000 shares per year, commencing on April 13, 2001, includes certain registration rights and may be exercised until March 31, 2015.  The warrant is not transferable, except in certain circumstances.  The Company previously estimated the fair value of the warrant to be $76,016,175 at the date it was received, using the Black-Scholes pricing model, with a risk free rate of 6.5%, a volatility of 80% and assuming no cash dividends.  The estimated fair value of the warrant at June 30, 2001 was $21.5 million, using similar assumptions.  The Company expects the value of the warrant to fluctuate based on the underlying stock price of Livewire.  The Company does not currently expect to exercise or register shares in the coming year.

The Company records stock-based compensation expense based on increases and decreases in the market price of the Company's common stock above the exercise price of certain employee options, which are subject to variable option accounting treatment.  To the extent that the Company has a stock-based compensation obligation at the beginning of a given reporting period, the Company will recognize a reduction in stock-based compensation expense related to unexercised variable options for that period based on a reduction of the market price for the Company's stock at the end of the period.  The deferred obligation will increase as the market price for the Company's common stock increases at the end of a reporting period.
