________________________
(b) Prior to the fourth quarter of 2015, Search & Applications was a reportable segment consisting of one operating segment and one reporting unit. In the fourth quarter of 2015, Search &Applications was split into three new operating segments and reporting units: Publishing, Applications and PriceRunner. The goodwill of Search & Applications was allocated to these three reporting units based upon their relative fair values as of October 1, 2015. It is not possible to reflect this allocation on a retrospective basis because of acquisitions and dispositions during the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. See Note 1 for additional information on the realignment of IAC's reportable segments.
