NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
IAC today consists of category leading businesses, including Dotdash Meredith, Angi Inc. and Care.com, among others ranging from early stage to established businesses.
As used herein, "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our," "us" and other similar terms refer to IAC Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise).
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements (referred to herein as "financial statements") in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly-owned by the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances between and among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Accounting Estimates
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates, judgments and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, judgments and assumptions, including those related to: the fair values of cash equivalents and marketable debt and equity securities; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for credit losses; the determination of the customer relationship period for certain costs to obtain a contract with a customer; the recoverability of right-of-use assets ("ROU assets"); the useful lives and recoverability of capitalized software, equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements and definite-lived intangible assets; the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; the fair value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values; the fair value of interest rate swaps; contingencies; the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements; unrecognized tax benefits; the liability for potential refunds and customer credits; the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets; pension and postretirement benefit expenses, including actuarial assumptions regarding discount rates, expected returns on plan assets, inflation and healthcare costs; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for stock-based awards, among others. The Company bases its estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets and other factors that the Company considers relevant.

Interest Rate Swaps
In March 2023, Dotdash Meredith entered into interest rate swaps for a total notional amount of $350 million, which synthetically converted a portion of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B from floating rate to fixed rate to manage interest rate risk exposure beginning on April 3, 2023. Dotdash Meredith designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges and applies hedge accounting to these contracts in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging. As cash flow hedges, the interest rate swaps are recognized at fair value on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities, with the changes in fair value recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the balance sheet and reclassified into “Interest expense” in the statement of operations in the periods in which the interest rate swaps affect earnings. Dotdash Meredith assessed hedge effectiveness at the time of entering into these agreements and determined these interest rate swaps are expected to be highly effective. Dotdash Meredith evaluates the hedge effectiveness of the interest rate swaps quarterly, or more frequently, if necessary, by verifying (i) that the critical terms of the interest rate swaps continue to match the critical terms of the hedged interest payments and (ii) that it is probable the counterparties will not default. If the two requirements are met, the interest rate swaps are determined to be effective and all changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss." The cash flows related to interest settlements of the hedged monthly interest payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows, consistent with the interest expense on the related Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B. See "Note 4—Long-term Debt" for additional information.
General Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of the parties and payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services or goods is transferred to the Company's customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods.
From January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022, Services recorded revenue on a gross basis. Effective January 1, 2023, Angi Inc. modified the Services terms and conditions so that the service professional, rather than Angi Inc., has the contractual relationship with the consumer to deliver the service and Angi Inc.'s performance obligation to the consumer is to connect them with the service professional. This change in contractual terms requires revenue to be reported as the net amount of what is received from the consumer after deducting the amounts owed to the service professional providing the service effective for all arrangements entered into after December 31, 2022. There is no impact to operating loss or Adjusted EBITDA from this change in revenue recognition. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, if Services revenue were recorded on a net basis, revenue would have been reduced by $71.1 million and $122.8 million, respectively.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of payments that are received or are contractually due in advance of the Company's performance obligation. The Company’s deferred revenue is reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current when the remaining term or expected completion of its performance obligation is one year or less. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances were $160.8 million and $0.1 million, respectively, at June 30, 2023, and $157.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $127.3 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $125.2 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2021. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances were $165.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021. Non-current deferred revenue is included in "Other long-term liabilities" in the balance sheet.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions
For contracts that have an original duration of one year or less, the Company uses the practical expedient available under FASB Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, applicable to such contracts and does not consider the time value of money.
In addition, as permitted under the practical expedient available under ASU No. 2014-09, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts with variable consideration that is tied to sales-based or usage-based royalties, allocated entirely to unsatisfied performance obligations, or to a wholly unsatisfied promise accounted for under the series guidance and (iii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount which it has the right to invoice for services performed.
Certain Risks and Concentrations—Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement")
The Company and Google are parties to an amended Services Agreement, which automatically renewed effective March 31, 2023 and now expires on March 31, 2025. The Company earns certain other advertising revenue from Google that is not attributable to the Services Agreement. A meaningful portion of the Company’s net cash from operating activities that it can freely access is attributable to revenue earned pursuant to the Services Agreement and other revenue earned from Google.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, total revenue earned from Google was $197.9 million and $370.8 million, respectively, representing 18 % and 17 %, respectively, of the Company's revenue. The revenue earned from the Services Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was $164.6 million and $303.3 million, respectively, representing 15 % and 14 %, respectively, of the Company's total revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, total revenue earned from Google was $169.3 million and $362.7 million, respectively, representing 12 % and 13 %, respectively, of the Company's revenue. The revenue earned from the Services Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, was $122.1 million and $269.3 million, respectively, representing 9 % and 10 %, respectively, of the Company's total revenue. The related accounts receivable totaled $68.8 million and $74.1 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
The revenue attributable to the Services Agreement is earned by Ask Media Group and the Desktop business, which comprise the Search segment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, revenue earned from the Services Agreement was $146.1 million and $266.4 million, respectively, within Ask Media Group and $18.4 million and $37.0 million, respectively, within the Desktop business. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, revenue earned from the Services Agreement was $97.6 million and $218.1 million, respectively, within Ask Media Group and $24.5 million and $51.2 million, respectively, within the Desktop business.
The Services Agreement requires that the Company comply with certain guidelines promulgated by Google. Google may generally unilaterally update its policies and guidelines without advance notice. These updates may be specific to the Services Agreement or could be more general and thereby impact the Company as well as other companies. These policy and guideline updates have in the past and could in the future require modifications to, or prohibit and/or render obsolete certain of our products, services and/or business practices, which have been and could be costly to address or negatively impact revenue and have had and in the future could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. As described below, Google has made changes to the policies under the Services Agreement and has also made industry-wide changes that have negatively impacted the Desktop business-to-consumer ("B2C") business. Google may make changes in the future that could impact the revenue earned from Google, including under the Services Agreement.
As a result of certain industry-wide policy changes combined with increased enforcement by Google of policies under the Services Agreement in prior periods, the Company discontinued the introduction of new products in 2021. Therefore, the current B2C revenue stream relates solely to the then existing installed base of products. As a result, the revenue and profits of the B2C business have declined significantly and the Company expects that trend to continue.

NOTE 2—DOTDASH MEREDITH RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND TRANSACTION-RELATED EXPENSES
Restructuring Charges
During the first half of 2023, Dotdash Meredith continued to incur costs related to a voluntary retirement program announced in the first quarter of 2022 and recorded adjustments to previously accrued amounts related to a reduction in force plan, for which the related expenses were accrued primarily in the fourth quarter of 2022.
During 2022, Dotdash Meredith management committed to several actions to improve efficiencies and better align its cost structure following the acquisition of Meredith on December 1, 2021, which included: (i) the discontinuation of certain print publications and the shutdown of PeopleTV, for which the related expense was primarily reflected in the first quarter of 2022, (ii) the aforementioned voluntary retirement program, for which the related expense was primarily reflected in the first half of 2022, (iii) the consolidation of certain leased office space, for which the related expense was reflected in the third quarter of 2022 and (iv) the aforementioned reduction in force plan. These actions resulted in $80.2 million of restructuring charges incurred for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company categorizes its financial instruments measured at fair value into a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
•Level 1: Observable inputs obtained from independent sources, such as quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
•Level 2: Other inputs, which are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair values of the Company's Level 2 financial assets are primarily obtained from observable market prices for identical underlying securities that may not be actively traded. Certain of these securities may have different market prices from multiple market data sources, in which case an average market price is used.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and require the Company to develop its own assumptions, based on the best information available in the circumstances, about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The following tables present the Company's financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Contingent Consideration Arrangements
At June 30, 2023, the Company has no contingent consideration arrangements outstanding. In connection with the Meredith acquisition on December 1, 2021, the Company assumed a contingent consideration arrangement liability of $0.6 million, which was written off during the first quarter of 2022 due to a change in estimate of the liability related to this arrangement.
Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The Company's non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, ROU assets, capitalized software, equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements, are adjusted to fair value only when an impairment is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs.
During the first quarter of 2023, Dotdash Meredith recorded impairment charges related to certain unoccupied leased office space due to the continued decline in the commercial real estate market; a $44.7 million impairment of an ROU asset and a $25.3 million impairment of leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, which are included in "General and administrative expense" and "Depreciation," respectively, in the statement of operations. The impairment charges represent the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group exceeded its estimated fair value, calculated using a discounted cash flow approach using sublease market assumptions of the expected cash flows and discount rate. The impairment charges were allocated between the ROU assets and related leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment of the asset group based on their relative carrying values.
The aggregate carrying value of goodwill for which the most recent estimate of the excess of fair value over carrying value is less than 20% is $153.6 million of goodwill at Mosaic Group. There is one indefinite-lived intangible asset at Dotdash Meredith Digital with a value of approximately $126.0 million for which the excess of fair value over carrying value is less than 20%.

Dotdash Meredith Term Loans and Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility
On December 1, 2021, Dotdash Meredith entered into a credit agreement ("Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement"), which provides for (i) the five-year $350 million Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A, (ii) the seven-year $1.25 billion Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B (and together with Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A, the "Dotdash Meredith Term Loans") and (iii) a five-year $150 million revolving credit facility ("Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility"). The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A bears interest at an adjusted term secured overnight financing rate ("Adjusted Term SOFR") as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement plus an applicable margin depending on Dotdash Meredith's most recently reported consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement. The adjustment to the secured overnight financing rate is fixed at 0.10 % for the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A. The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B has a varying adjustment of 0.10 %, 0.15 % or 0.25 % based upon the duration of the borrowing period. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.25 %, or 7.24 % and 5.91 %, respectively, and the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, subject to a minimum of 0.50 %, plus 4.00 %, or 9.26 % and 8.22 %, respectively. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the terms of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans.
In March 2023, Dotdash Meredith entered into interest rate swaps on the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B for a total notional amount of $350 million with a maturity date of April 1, 2027. The interest rate swaps synthetically converted $350 million of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B for the duration of the interest rate swaps to a fixed rate of approximately 7.92 % ((i) the weighted average fixed interest rate of approximately 3.82 % on the interest rate swaps plus (ii) the adjustment to the secured overnight financing rate of 0.10 % plus (iii) the base rate of 4.00 %), beginning on April 3, 2023.
The interest rate swaps are expected to be highly effective. See "Note 5—Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income" for the net unrealized gains recognized in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" and realized gains reclassified into “Interest expense” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. At June 30, 2023, $5.1 million is expected to be reclassified into interest expense within the next twelve months as realized gains. The related asset of $4.4 million is included in “Other non-current assets” in the balance sheet at June 30, 2023.

The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A requires quarterly principal payments of approximately $4.4 million through December 31, 2024, $8.8 million through December 31, 2025 and approximately $13.1 million thereafter through maturity. The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B requires quarterly payments of $3.1 million through maturity. The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B may require additional annual principal payments as part of an excess cash flow sweep provision, the amount of which, in part, is governed by the applicable net leverage ratio. No such payment was required related to the period ended December 31, 2022.
There were no 40 basis points at both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Any borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility would bear interest, at Dotdash Meredith's option, at either a base rate or Adjusted Term SOFR, plus an applicable margin, which is based on Dotdash Meredith's consolidated net leverage ratio.
As of the last day of any calendar quarter, if either (i) $1.00 or more of loans under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility or Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A are outstanding, or (ii) the outstanding face amount of undrawn letters of credit, other than cash collateralized letters of credit at 102 % of face value, exceeds $25 million, subject to certain increases for qualifying material acquisitions, then Dotdash Meredith will not permit the consolidated net leverage ratio, which permits netting of up to $250 million in cash and cash equivalents, as of the last day of such quarter to exceed 5.5 to 1.0. The Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement also contains covenants that would limit Dotdash Meredith’s ability to pay dividends, incur incremental secured indebtedness, or make distributions or certain investments in the event a default has occurred or if Dotdash Meredith’s consolidated net leverage ratio exceeds 4.0 to 1.0, subject to certain available amounts as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement. This ratio was exceeded for both test periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement also permits the Company to, among other things, contribute cash to Dotdash Meredith, which will provide additional liquidity to ensure that Dotdash Meredith does not exceed certain consolidated net leverage ratios for any test period, as further defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement. In connection with these capital contributions, Dotdash Meredith may make distributions to IAC in amounts not more than any such capital contributions, provided that no default has occurred and is continuing. Such capital contributions and subsequent distributions impact the consolidated net leverage ratios of Dotdash Meredith. The Company contributed $145.0 million and $135.0 million to Dotdash Meredith in June 2023 and March 2023, respectively, which Dotdash Meredith subsequently distributed back to the Company $130.0 million, $15.0 million and $135.0 million in July, June and April 2023, respectively.
The obligations under the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of Dotdash Meredith's wholly-owned subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of the assets of Dotdash Meredith and certain of its subsidiaries.
ANGI Group Debt
ANGI Group, LLC ("ANGI Group"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Angi Inc., issued the ANGI Group Senior Notes on August 20, 2020. At any time prior to August 15, 2023, these notes may be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the sum of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole premium. Thereafter, these notes may be redeemed at the redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date as set forth in the indenture governing the notes.
The indenture governing the ANGI Group Senior Notes contains a covenant that would limit ANGI Group’s ability to incur liens for borrowed money in the event a default has occurred or ANGI Group’s secured leverage ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.0 provided that ANGI Group is permitted to incur such liens under certain permitted credit facilities indebtedness notwithstanding the ratio, all as defined in the indenture.

NOTE 6—SEGMENT INFORMATION
The overall concept that the Company employs in determining its operating segments is to present the financial information in a manner consistent with the chief operating decision maker's view of the businesses. In addition, we consider how the businesses are organized as to segment management and the focus of the businesses with regards to the types of services or products offered or the target market. Operating segments are combined for reporting purposes if they meet certain aggregation criteria, such as the Search segment, which principally relate to the similarity of their economic characteristics, or, in the case of the Emerging & Other reportable segment, do not meet the quantitative thresholds that require presentation as separate reportable segments.
The following table presents revenue by reportable segment:

Settlements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 triggered remeasurements of the pension plans in the U.S. The actuarial gain of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 primarily relates to investment performance and an increase in the discount rate. The actuarial gain of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily relates to investment performance, partially offset by a loss due to an adjustment in plan demographics.
Settlements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 triggered remeasurements of Meredith's funded pension plans in the United Kingdom ("U.K.") and U.S. The U.K. actuarial losses of $43.6 million and $68.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily relate to the decline in the fair value of the U.K. pension plan's assets exceeding the decline in the plan liabilities, in each case due to higher interest rates. The U.S. actuarial gain of $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily relates to the revaluation of an annuity contract, partially offset by a loss due to the decline in the fair value of the U.S. pension plan's assets exceeding the decline in the plan liabilities. The U.S. actuarial loss of $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily relates to the decline in the fair value of plan assets.
The following table summarizes the weighted average expected return on plan assets used to determine the net periodic benefit costs at June 30, 2023, following the remeasurements, and December 31, 2022, respectively:

NOTE 8—INCOME TAXES

IAC INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences and the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or the Company's tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective income tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in income tax provision or benefit in the quarter in which the change occurs. Included in the income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was a benefit of $2.0 million due to a higher estimated annual effective tax rate from that applied to the first quarter's ordinary loss from continuing operations. The higher estimated annual effective rate was primarily due to the reduced impact that forecasted nondeductible compensation expense had on the increase in forecasted ordinary pre-tax losses.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $24.3 million and an income tax provision of $115.2 million, respectively, which represents an effective income tax rate of 21 % and 26 %,respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the effective income tax rate was the same as the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to nondeductible compensation expense and foreign income taxed at different statutory rates, offset by research credits, the realization of a capital loss and a change in forecasted rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to state taxes and nondeductible compensation expense, partially offset by research credits. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $229.0 million and $299.5 million, respectively, which represents an effective income tax rate of 21
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. Accruals for interest and penalties are not material.
The Company's income taxes are routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities as a result of previously filed separate company and consolidated tax returns for periods prior to the June 30, 2020 separation of IAC from Match Group (the "Match Separation") and for its tax returns filed on a standalone basis following the Match Separation. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. On June 27, 2023, the Joint Committee of Taxation completed its review of the federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2013 through 2019, which include the operations of the Company, and approved the audit settlement previously agreed to with the Internal Revenue Services ("IRS"). The statute of limitations for the years 2013 through 2019 expires on December 31, 2023. The resolution of this IRS examination will result in a net liability to Match Group of $2.5 million excluding interest, which was previously accrued. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for tax years beginning with 2013. Income taxes payable include unrecognized tax benefits considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from the examination of prior year tax returns. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes and, therefore, may require periodic adjustment. Although management currently believes changes in unrecognized tax benefits from period to period and differences between amounts paid, if any, upon resolution of issues raised in audits and amounts previously provided will not have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future.
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, were $18.1 million and $16.6 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, at June 30, 2023 increased by $1.5 million due primarily to research credits, partially offset by settlements. If unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2023 are subsequently recognized, $17.0 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax expense. The comparable amount at December 31, 2022 was $15.4 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $1.3 million by June 30, 2024 due to expected settlements of which $1.0 million would reduce the income tax provision.

NOTE 9—(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company treats its common stock and Class B common stock as one class of stock for net earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") purposes as both classes of stock participate in earnings, dividends and other distributions on the same basis. The restricted stock award granted to our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") on November 5, 2020 is a participating security and the Company calculates basic EPS using the two-class method since those restricted shares are unvested and have a non-forfeitable dividend right in the event the Company declares a cash dividend on common shares and participate in all other distributions of the Company in the same manner as all other IAC common shares. Diluted EPS is calculated, on the most dilutive basis, which excludes awards that would be anti-dilutive, including the restricted stock award granted to our CEO.
Undistributed earnings allocated to the participating security is subtracted from earnings in determining earnings attributable to holders of IAC common stock and Class B common stock for basic EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to holders of IAC common stock and Class B common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and Class B common stock outstanding during the period.
For the calculation of diluted EPS, net earnings (loss) attributable to holders of IAC common stock and Class B common stock is adjusted for the impact from our public subsidiary's dilutive securities, if applicable, and the reallocation of undistributed earnings allocated to the participating security by the weighted-average number of common stock and Class B common stock outstanding plus dilutive securities during the period.
The numerator and denominator of basic and diluted EPS computations for the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock are calculated as follows:

_____________________
(a) On November 5, 2020, IAC's CEO was granted a stock-based award in the form of 3.0 million shares of restricted common stock. The number of shares that ultimately vests is subject to the satisfaction of growth targets in IAC's stock price over the 10-year service condition of the award. These restricted shares have a non-forfeitable dividend right in the event the Company declares a cash dividend on its common shares and participate in all other distributions of the Company in the same manner as all other IAC common shares. Accordingly, the two-class method of calculating EPS is used. While the restricted shares are presented as outstanding shares in the balance sheet, these shares are excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding in calculating basic EPS and the allocable portion of net earnings are also excluded. Fully diluted EPS reflects the impact on earnings and fully diluted shares in the manner that is most dilutive.
(b) IAC has the option to settle certain Angi Inc. stock-based awards in its shares. The impact on net earnings relates to the settlement of Angi Inc.'s dilutive securities in IAC common shares. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, these Angi Inc. equity awards were anti-dilutive.
(c) If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and subsidiary denominated equity and vesting of restricted common stock and restricted stock units ("RSUs"). For the six months ended June 30, 2023, 3.3 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from computing diluted EPS because the impact would have been anti-dilutive.
(d) For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had a loss from operations and, as a result, approximately 8.0 million and 8.1

NOTE 12—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
IAC and Angi Inc.
Allocation of CEO Compensation and Certain Expenses
Joseph Levin, CEO of IAC and Chairman of Angi Inc., was appointed CEO of Angi Inc. on October 10, 2022. As a result, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, IAC allocated $2.3 million and $4.6 million, respectively, in costs to Angi Inc. (including salary, benefits, stock-based compensation and costs related to the CEO's office). These costs were allocated from IAC based upon time spent on Angi Inc. by Mr. Levin. Management considers the allocation method to be reasonable. The allocated costs also include costs directly attributable to Angi Inc. that were initially paid for by IAC and billed by IAC to Angi Inc.
The Combination and Related Agreements
The Company and Angi Inc., in connection with the transaction resulting in the formation of Angi Inc. in 2017, which is referred to as the "Combination," entered into a contribution agreement; an investor rights agreement; a services agreement; a tax sharing agreement; and an employee matters agreement, which collectively govern the relationship between IAC and Angi Inc.
IAC and Vimeo Inc. ("Vimeo")
Following the spin-off of Vimeo from IAC, the relationship between IAC and Vimeo is governed by several agreements, which include a separation agreement, a tax matters agreement, a transition services agreement (which expired in 2022), an employee matters agreement and office lease agreements. The Company and Vimeo are related parties because Mr. Diller is the beneficial owner of more than 10 % of the voting interests in both IAC and Vimeo.
The Company has an outstanding receivable of $0.8
The Company charged Vimeo rent pursuant to lease agreements of $0.8 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $1.4 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. At June 30, 2023, the Company has an outstanding receivable of $0.2 million due from Vimeo pursuant to the lease agreements. This amount is included in "Other non-current assets" in the balance sheet. At December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding receivables due from Vimeo pursuant to the lease agreements.
IAC and Expedia
At June 30, 2023, the Company and Expedia each had a 50 % ownership interest in two aircraft that may be used by both companies. Members of the aircraft flight crews are employed by an entity in which the Company and Expedia each have a 50 % ownership interest. The Company and Expedia have agreed to share costs relating to flight crew compensation and benefits pro-rata according to each company’s respective usage of the aircraft, for which they are separately billed by the entity described above. The Company and Expedia are related parties because Mr. Diller serves as Chairman and Senior Executive of both IAC and Expedia. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total payments made to this entity by the Company were not material.

For a more detailed description of the Company's operating businesses, see "Description of IAC Businesses" included in "Item 1—Business" to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Defined Terms and Operating Metrics:
Unless otherwise indicated or as the context otherwise requires, certain terms used in this quarterly report, which include the principal operating metrics we use in managing our business, are defined below:
Reportable Segments (for additional information see "Note 6—Segment Information" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements"):
•Dotdash Meredith - is one of the largest digital and print publishers in America. From mobile to magazines, nearly 200 million people trust us to help them make decisions, take action and find inspiration. Dotdash Meredith's over 40 iconic brands include PEOPLE, Better Homes & Gardens, Verywell, FOOD & WINE, The Spruce, Allrecipes, Byrdie, REAL SIMPLE, Investopedia and Southern Living. Dotdash Meredith has two operating segments: (i) Digital, which includes its digital, mobile and licensing operations; and (ii) Print, which includes its magazine subscription and newsstand operations;
•Angi Inc. - a publicly traded company that connects quality home service professionals with consumers across more than 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling homes to cleaning and landscaping. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Angi Inc. segment presentation was changed to reflect the following operating segments: (i) Ads and Leads, (ii) Services, (iii) Roofing and (iv) International (consisting of businesses in Europe and Canada). Angi Inc.'s financial information for all prior periods, including the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, included herein, has been recast to reflect this four operating segment presentation. At June 30, 2023, the Company’s economic and voting interests in Angi Inc. were 83.9% and 98.1%, respectively;
•Search - consists of Ask Media Group, a collection of websites providing general search services and information, and Desktop, which includes our direct-to-consumer downloadable desktop applications and our business-to-business partnership operations; and
•Emerging & Other - consists of:

37
Dotdash Meredith
•Digital Revenue - includes advertising revenue, performance marketing revenue and licensing and other revenue.
◦Advertising revenue - primarily includes revenue generated from display advertisements sold both directly through our sales team and via programmatic exchanges.
◦Performance marketing revenue - primarily includes revenue generated through affiliate commerce, affinity marketing channels and performance marketing commissions. Affiliate commerce commission revenue is generated when Dotdash Meredith refers users to commerce partner websites resulting in a purchase or transaction. Affinity marketing programs market and place magazine subscriptions for both Dotdash Meredith and third-party publisher titles. Performance marketing commissions are generated on a cost-per-click or cost-per-action basis.
◦Licensing and Other revenue - primarily includes revenue generated through brand and content licensing agreements. Brand licensing generates royalties from multiple long-term trademark licensing agreements with retailers, manufacturers, publishers and service providers. Content licensing royalties are earned from our relationship with Apple News + as well as other content distribution relationships.
•Print Revenue - primarily includes subscription, advertising, newsstand and performance marketing revenue.
Angi Inc.
•Ads and Leads Revenue - primarily reflects domestic ads and leads revenue, including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches, revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
•Services Revenue - primarily reflects domestic revenue from pre-priced offerings by which the consumer requests services through an Angi Inc. platform and Angi Inc. connects them with a service professional to perform the service. From January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022, Services recorded revenue on a gross basis. Effective January 1, 2023, Angi Inc. modified the Services terms and conditions so that the service professional, rather than Angi Inc., has the contractual relationship with the consumer to deliver the service and Angi Inc.'s performance obligation to the consumer is to connect them with the service professional. This change in contractual terms requires revenue to be reported as the net amount of what is received from the consumer after deducting the amounts owed to the service professional providing the service effective for all arrangements entered into after December 31, 2022. There is no impact to operating loss or Adjusted EBITDA from this change in revenue recognition. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, if Services revenue were recorded on a net basis, revenue would have been reduced by $71.1 million and $122.8 million, respectively.
•Roofing Revenue - primarily reflects revenue from the roof replacement business offering by which the consumer purchases services directly from Angi Inc. and Angi Inc. engages a service professional to perform the service.
•International Revenue - primarily reflects revenue generated within the International segment (consisting of businesses in Europe and Canada), including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
•Monetized Transactions - are (i) service requests that are matched to a paying Ads and Leads service professional in the period and (ii) completed and in-process Services jobs in the period; a single service request can result in multiple monetized transactions.
38
Operating Costs and Expenses:
•Cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation) - consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs, which include (i) payments made to partners who direct traffic to our Ask Media Group websites and who distribute our business-to-business customized browser-based applications and (ii) the amortization of fees paid to Apple and Google related to the distribution of apps and the facilitation of in-app purchases. Traffic acquisition costs include payment of amounts based on revenue share and other arrangements. Cost of revenue also includes production, distribution and editorial costs at Dotdash Meredith, payments made to independent third-party service professionals who performed work contracted under Services arrangements that were entered into prior to January 1, 2023 and the change to net revenue reporting, compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs, roofing material and third-party contactor costs associated with Roofing arrangements, credit card processing fees, payments made to workers staffed by Bluecrew for periods prior to its sale on November 9, 2022, hosting fees and payments made to care providers for Care For Business.
•Selling and marketing expense - consists primarily of advertising expenditures, which include online marketing expenditures, including fees paid to search engines, social media sites, other online marketing platforms, app platforms and partner-related payments to those who direct traffic to the brands within our Angi Inc. segment, offline marketing expenditures, which primarily consists of costs related to television advertising, compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for sales force and marketing personnel, subscription acquisition costs related to Dotdash Meredith, outsourced personnel and consulting costs and service guarantee expense at Angi Inc.
•General and administrative expense - consists primarily of compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax, human resources and customer service functions (except for Care.com, which includes customer service costs within "Cost of revenue" in the statement of operations), fees for professional services (including transaction-related costs related to the acquisition of Meredith Holdings Corporation ("Meredith") and other acquisitions), provision for credit losses, rent expense and facilities cost, software license and maintenance costs and acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments (described below). The customer service function at Angi Inc. includes personnel who provide support to its service professionals and consumers.
•Product development expense - consists primarily of compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs and third-party contractor costs that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, development, testing and enhancement of product offerings and related technology and software license and maintenance costs.
•Acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustments - relate to the portion of the purchase price of certain acquisitions that is contingent upon the financial performance and/or operating metric targets of the acquired company. Changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements are recognized during each reporting period in "General and administrative expense" in the statement of operations.
Long-term debt (for additional information see "Note 4—Long-term Debt" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements"):
•Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A - due December 1, 2026. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A was $323.8 million and $332.5 million, respectively, and bore interest at an adjusted term secured overnight financing rate ("Adjusted Term SOFR") plus 2.25%, or 7.24% and 5.91%, respectively. The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A has quarterly principal payments.
•Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B - due December 1, 2028. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B was $1.23 billion and $1.24 billion, respectively, and bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, subject to a minimum of 0.50%, plus 4.00%, or 9.26% and 8.22%, respectively. The Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B has quarterly principal payments.
39
•Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility - Dotdash Meredith's $150.0 million revolving credit facility expires on December 1, 2026. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility.
•ANGI Group Senior Notes - on August 20, 2020, ANGI Group, LLC ("ANGI Group"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Angi Inc., issued $500 million of its 3.875% Senior Notes due August 15, 2028, with interest payable February 15 and August 15 of each year.
Non-GAAP financial measure:
•Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") - is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Principles of Financial Reporting" for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net (loss) earnings attributable to IAC shareholders to operating loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Dotdash Meredith Restructuring and Other Charges
During the first half of 2023, Dotdash Meredith continued to incur costs related to a voluntary retirement program announced in the first quarter of 2022 and recorded adjustments to previously accrued amounts related to a reduction in force plan, for which the related expenses were accrued primarily in the fourth quarter of 2022.
During 2022, Dotdash Meredith management committed to several actions to improve efficiencies and better align its cost structure following the acquisition of Meredith on December 1, 2021, which included: (i) the discontinuation of certain print publications and the shutdown of PeopleTV, for which the related expense was primarily reflected in the first quarter of 2022, (ii) the aforementioned voluntary retirement program, for which the related expense was primarily reflected in the first half of 2022, (iii) the consolidation of certain leased office space, for which the related expense was reflected in the third quarter of 2022 and (iv) the aforementioned reduction in force plan. These actions resulted in $80.2 million of restructuring charges incurred for the year ended December 31, 2022.
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Dotdash Meredith incurred net restructuring charges of $0.2 million, including charges incurred of $0.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, and reversals of previously recorded accrued costs of $0.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Dotdash Meredith incurred restructuring charges of $13.7 million and $36.1 million, respectively, including $12.6 million and $33.1 million, respectively, of severance and related costs. At June 30, 2023, the cumulative restructuring charges incurred were $80.4 million.
During the first quarter of 2023, Dotdash Meredith reassessed the sublease market assumptions and recorded impairment charges related to certain unoccupied leased office space due to the continued decline in the commercial real estate market; a $44.7 million impairment of a right-of-use asset ("ROU asset") and a $25.3 million impairment of leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, which are included in "General and administrative expense" and "Depreciation," respectively, in the statement of operations.
See "Note 2—Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges and Transaction-Related Expenses" and "Note 3—Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information on Dotdash Meredith restructuring and impairment charges, respectively.
Certain Risks and Concentrations—Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement")
The Company and Google are parties to an amended Services Agreement, which automatically renewed effective March 31, 2023 and now expires on March 31, 2025.
As a result of certain industry-wide policy changes combined with increased enforcement by Google of policies under the Services Agreement in prior periods, the Company discontinued the introduction of new Desktop business-to-consumer ("B2C") products in 2021. Therefore, the current B2C revenue stream relates solely to the then existing installed base of products. As a result, the revenue and profits of the B2C business have declined significantly and the Company expects that trend to continue. See "Note 1—The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information on the Services Agreement with Google.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022
•Dotdash Meredith revenue decreased 15% to $414.0 million due primarily to decreases of $53.5 million, or 21%, from Print and $22.5 million, or 10%, from Digital. The decrease from Print was driven by the reduction in circulation of certain publications. The decrease from Digital was due primarily to decreases of $25.3 million, or 16%, in Advertising revenue and $2.8 million, or 10%, in Licensing and Other revenue, partially offset by an increase of $5.6 million, or 12%, in Performance Marketing revenue. The decrease in Advertising revenue was due primarily to declines in premium advertising sold through its sales team and lower programmatic revenue due to lower traffic, compared to the prior year period, primarily in the Entertainment and Finance categories. The decrease in Licensing and Other revenue was due primarily to lower royalties earned from retail partners. The increase in Performance Marketing revenue was due primarily to an increase in affiliate commerce commission revenue, partially offset by a decline in Performance Marketing revenue primarily in the Finance and Health categories.

The decrease in compensation expense was due primarily to lower headcount. The decrease in advertising expense was primarily due to a decrease of $1.5 million in service professional marketing spend. The increase in service guarantee expense is due to the aforementioned change in contractual terms and conditions resulting in the change to net revenue reporting such that this expense is no longer a component of cost of revenue, which is where the expense was recorded prior to January 1, 2023.
•The Emerging & Other decrease was due primarily to decreases in advertising expense of $7.1 million and $3.1 million at Mosaic Group and Care.com, respectively, and the inclusion in the prior year period of $3.8 million in expense from Bluecrew, which was sold on November 9, 2022, partially offset by an increase of $1.5 million in offline marketing spend at IAC Films.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022
Operating loss decreased $110.7 million to a loss of $55.5 million due primarily to the inclusion in the second quarter of 2022 of a goodwill impairment of $86.7 million at Mosaic Group, an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $32.8 million, described below, and decreases of $1.9 million in amortization of intangibles and $1.5 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $12.2 million in depreciation. The goodwill impairment at Mosaic Group was a result of the projected reduction in future revenue and profits from the business and lower trading multiples of a selected peer group of companies. The decrease in the amortization of intangibles was due primarily to lower expense at Dotdash Meredith's Print segment, Care.com and Angi Inc.'s Services segment due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized, partially offset by an increase at Dotdash Meredith's Digital segment as a result of the reclassification of certain acquired capitalized software from depreciable assets to intangible assets in connection with the completion of purchase accounting related to the acquisition of Meredith. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to lower expense at Angi Inc.'s Services segment due to a reduction in headcount. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to capitalized software placed in service after the second quarter of 2022 at Angi Inc. and a $4.2 million write-off of certain leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment at Dotdash Meredith during the second quarter of 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022
48
Operating loss decreased $83.9 million to a loss of $191.1 million due primarily to the inclusion in the second quarter of 2022 of a goodwill impairment of $86.7 million at Mosaic Group, an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $34.2 million, described below, and decreases of $4.5 million in amortization of intangibles and $2.2 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $43.2 million in depreciation and income of $0.6 million in 2022 related to an acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustment. The goodwill impairment at Mosaic Group and the decreases in the amortization of intangibles and stock-based compensation expense were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to the impairment of leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment of $25.3 million at Dotdash Meredith in the first quarter of 2023 related to unoccupied leased space and a $4.2 million write-off of certain leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment during the second quarter of 2023, and an increase in expense at Angi Inc. primarily related to an increase in capitalized software projects placed in service, partially offset by a decrease $11.0 million in depreciation at Dotdash Meredith as a result of the reclassification of certain acquired capitalized software from depreciable assets to intangible assets described above in three-month discussion.
The aggregate carrying value of goodwill for which the most recent estimate of the excess of fair value over carrying value is less than 20% is $153.6 million of goodwill at Mosaic Group. There is one indefinite-lived intangible asset at Dotdash Meredith Digital with a value of approximately $126.0 million for which the excess of fair value over carrying value is less than 20%.
At June 30, 2023, there was $305.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to all equity-based awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 4.3 years.

PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This measure is one of the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, and our internal budgets are based and may impact management compensation. We believe that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. The Company endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measure, which we discuss below.
Definition of Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable, and (ii) gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded from Our Non-GAAP Measure
Stock-based compensation expense consists of expense associated with awards that were granted under various IAC stock and annual incentive plans and expense related to awards issued by certain subsidiaries of the Company. These expenses are not paid in cash and we view the economic costs of stock-based awards to be the dilution to our share base; we also include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding for GAAP earnings per share using the treasury stock method. The Company is currently settling all stock-based awards on a net basis; IAC remits the required tax-withholding amounts for net-settled awards from its current funds.
Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our capitalized software, equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements and is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the lease term, if shorter.
Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash expenses related primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as advertiser relationships, technology, licensee relationships, trade names, content, service professional relationships, customer lists and user base and subscriber relationships, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairments of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.
Gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements are accounting adjustments to report contingent consideration liabilities at fair value. These adjustments can be highly variable and are excluded from our assessment of performance because they are considered non-operational in nature and, therefore, are not indicative of current or future performance or the ongoing cost of doing business.

| Net cash provided by (used in): | |||||||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 128,254 | $ | (7,905) | |||||||

| Financing activities | $ | (193,352) | $ | (63,792) | |||||||
Net cash provided by operating activities consists of net earnings adjusted for non-cash items and the effect of changes in working capital. Non-cash adjustments include the unrealized (gains) losses on the investment in MGM, deferred income taxes, amortization of intangibles, depreciation, goodwill impairment, pension and postretirement benefit expense, non-cash lease expense (including ROU impairments), stock-based compensation expense, provision for credit losses, (gains) losses investments in equity securities and sales of businesses, and unrealized decrease (increase) in the estimated fair value of a warrant.
2023
Adjustments to net earnings consist primarily of an unrealized gain on the investment in MGM of $672.5 million and net gains on investments in equity securities and sales of businesses of $1.5 million, partially offset by amortization of intangibles of $108.8 million, depreciation of $102.5 million, deferred income taxes of $101.5 million, non-cash lease expense of $72.5 million, stock-based compensation expense of $59.1 million, provision for credit losses of $48.6 million and an unrealized decrease in the estimated fair value of a warrant of $7.7 million. The decrease from changes in working capital include decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities of $57.5 million and operating lease liabilities of $39.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in other assets of $45.7 million and a decrease in accounts receivable of $30.3 million. The decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities is due primarily to a decrease in accrued employee compensation due primarily to payment of 2022 bonuses in 2023 and restructuring related severance payments at Dotdash Meredith. The decrease in operating lease liabilities is due to cash payments on leases net of interest accretion. The decrease in other assets is due, in part, to a decrease in prepaid hosting services at Angi Inc., Dotdash Meredith and Corporate. The decrease in accounts receivable is due primarily to a decrease in revenue relative to the fourth quarter of 2022 at Dotdash Meredith and a decrease at Care.com due to timing of cash receipts, partially offset by an increase at Angi Inc. due to timing of cash receipts.
Net cash used in investing activities includes $197.0 million for the purchases of marketable debt securities, capital expenditures of $108.1 million, primarily related to payment of approximately $80 million for the acquisition of the formerly leased land under IAC's New York City headquarters building as well as investments of $20.7 million in capitalized software at Angi Inc. to support its products and services, and $103.6 million for the purchase of additional shares of Turo, partially offset by maturities of marketable debt securities of $325.0 million, proceeds from the sales of assets of $28.9 million, including $28.2 million related to the sale of a building at Dotdash Meredith, a decrease in notes receivable of $14.2 million and net proceeds from the sale of businesses and investments of $3.5 million.
Net cash used in financing activities includes the repurchase of 3.2 million shares of IAC common stock, on a settlement date basis, for $165.6 million at an average price of $51.00 per share, principal payments on Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A and Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B of $15.0 million, withholding taxes paid on behalf of IAC employees, excluding Angi Inc., for stock-based awards that were net settled of $5.3 million, withholding taxes paid on behalf of Angi Inc. employees for stock-based awards that were net settled of $4.1 million, the repurchase of 1.1 million shares of Angi Inc. Class A common stock, on a settlement date basis, for $3.4 million at an average price of $3.22 per share.
57
2022
Adjustments to net loss consist primarily of an unrealized loss on the investment in MGM of $1.0 billion, amortization of intangibles of $113.3 million, goodwill impairment of $86.7 million, pension and postretirement benefit expense of $79.1 million, stock-based compensation expense of $61.3 million, depreciation of $59.3 million, provision for credit losses of $51.7 million and non-cash lease expense of $28.8 million and net losses on investments in equity securities and sales of businesses of $14.4 million, partially offset by deferred income taxes of $306.4 million and an unrealized increase in the estimated fair value of a warrant of $12.9 million. The decrease from changes in working capital include decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities of $73.0 million and operating lease liabilities of $32.1 million, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $10.0 million. The decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities is due, in part, to a decrease in accrued traffic acquisition costs and related payables at Search, a decrease in accrued employee compensation due, in part, to the payment of 2021 bonuses in 2022, and a decrease in accounts payable at Dotdash Meredith due primarily to timing of payments and lower spend due to the discontinuation of certain print publications, partially offset by an increase in restructuring charges at Dotdash Meredith. The decrease in operating lease liabilities is due to cash payments on leases net of interest accretion. The increase in deferred revenue is due primarily to the growth in subscription sales at Care.com and an increase in customer deposits for Angi Services at Angi Inc.
Net cash used in investing activities includes $202.5 million for the purchase of an additional 4.5 million shares of MGM and capital expenditures of $73.6 million primarily related to investments of $57.7 million in capitalized software at Angi Inc. to support its products and services, partially offset by net proceeds from the sale of businesses and investments of $27.9 million and a decrease in notes receivable of $19.1 million.
Net cash used in financing activities includes the repurchase of 0.7 million shares of IAC common stock, on a settlement date basis, for $59.1 million at an average price of $80.38 per share, withholding taxes paid on behalf of IAC employees, excluding Angi Inc., for stock-based awards that were net settled of $16.0 million, principal payments on Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A and Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B of $15.0 million, the repurchase of 1.0 million shares of Angi Inc. Class A common stock, on a settlement date basis, for $8.1 million at an average price of $7.80 per share and withholding taxes paid on behalf of Angi Inc. employees for stock-based awards that were net settled of $3.5 million, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of Vivian Health preferred shares, net of fees of $34.7 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financing Arrangements
In March 2023, Dotdash Meredith entered into interest rate swaps for a total notional amount of $350 million with a maturity date of April 1, 2027 to manage interest rate risk exposure. Dotdash Meredith designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges and applies hedge accounting to these contracts. The interest rate swaps synthetically converted $350 million of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B for the duration of the interest rate swaps to a fixed rate of approximately 7.92% ((i) the weighted average fixed interest rate of approximately 3.82% on the interest rate swaps plus (ii) the adjustment to the secured overnight financing rate of 0.10% plus (iii) the base rate of 4.00%), beginning on April 3, 2023.
For a detailed description of long-term debt and interest rate swaps, see "Note 1—The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Note 4—Long-term Debt" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements."

Investment in MGM
At June 30, 2023, the Company owns 64.7 million shares of MGM, including 4.5 million shares purchased in the first quarter of 2022 for $202.5 million, representing a 18.3% ownership.
Investment in Turo
In April 2023, the Company purchased additional shares of Turo for $103.6 million. At June 30, 2023, IAC's aggregate percentage ownership in Turo is approximately 30%.
Share Repurchase Authorizations and Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, IAC repurchased 3.2 million shares of its common stock, on a trade date basis, at an average price of $51.00 per share, or $165.6 million in aggregate. At August 4, 2023, IAC had 3.7 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, Angi Inc. repurchased 1.1 million shares of its common stock, on a trade date basis, at an average price of $3.22 per share, or $3.4 million in aggregate. At August 4, 2023 Angi Inc. had 14.0 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization.
IAC and Angi Inc. may purchase their shares over an indefinite period of time on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions, depending on those factors management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, price and future outlook.
Outstanding Stock-based Awards
IAC and Angi Inc. may settle stock options, stock settled stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and restricted stock on a gross or a net basis based upon factors deemed relevant by management at the time. To the extent that equity awards are settled on a net basis, the holders of the awards receive shares of IAC or Angi Inc., as applicable, with a value equal to the fair value of the award on the vest date for RSUs and restricted stock and with a value equal to the intrinsic value of the award upon exercise for stock options or stock settled appreciation rights less, in each case, an amount equal to the required cash tax withholding payment, which will be paid by IAC or Angi Inc., as applicable, on the employee's behalf. All awards are being settled currently on a net basis.

The following table summarizes (i) the aggregate intrinsic value of IAC and Angi Inc. non-publicly traded subsidiary denominated stock settled stock appreciation rights, IAC options, Angi Inc. stock settled stock appreciation rights, and Angi Inc. options and (ii) the aggregate fair value (based on stock prices as of August 4, 2023) of IAC and Angi Inc. RSUs and IAC restricted stock outstanding as of that date; assuming these awards were net settled on that date, the withholding taxes that would be paid by IAC and Angi Inc. on behalf of employees upon exercise or vesting that would be payable (assuming these equity awards are net settled with a 50% tax rate) and the shares that would have been issued are as follows:

_____________________
(a) The number of shares ultimately needed to settle these awards and the cash withholding tax obligation may vary significantly as a result of the determination of the fair value of the relevant subsidiary at the time of exercise. In addition, the number of shares required to settle these awards will be impacted by movement in the stock price of IAC and Angi Inc.
(b) The Company has the discretion to settle these awards net of withholding tax and exercise price (which is represented in the table above) or settle on a gross basis and require award holders to pay related withholding taxes, which he or she may do by selling shares of IAC common stock upon exercise. Assuming all IAC stock options outstanding on August 4, 2023 were settled on a gross basis (i.e., through the issuance of a number of shares of IAC common stock equal to the number of stock options exercised), the Company would have issued 2.8 million shares of IAC common stock and would have received $39.0 million in cash proceeds.
(c) Approximately 65% of the estimated withholding taxes payable upon the vesting of RSUs scheduled to vest after June 30, 2024 is related to RSUs that are scheduled to cliff vest in 2025 (the five-year anniversary of the grant date), subject to continued employment through the vesting date.
(d) On November 5, 2020, the Company granted 3.0 million shares of IAC restricted common stock to its CEO, that cliff vest on the ten-year anniversary of the grant date based on satisfaction of IAC's stock price targets and subject to continued employment through the vesting date. As of the date of this report, the price per share of IAC common stock was below the minimum price threshold to earn the award.
(e) Includes Angi Inc. stock options and subsidiary denominated equity.
(f) Pursuant to the employee matters agreement between IAC and Angi Inc., certain stock appreciation rights of Angi Inc. and equity awards denominated in shares of Angi Inc.'s subsidiaries may be settled in either shares of Angi Inc. common stock or IAC common stock. To the extent shares of IAC common stock are issued in settlement of these awards, Angi Inc. is obligated to reimburse IAC for the cost of those shares by issuing shares of Angi Inc. common stock.
Contractual Obligations
At June 30, 2023, there have been no material changes to the Company's contractual obligations since the disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
60
Capital Expenditures
The Company anticipates that it will need to make capital expenditures in connection with the development and expansion of its operations. The Company's 2023 capital expenditures are expected to be higher than its 2022 capital expenditures of $139.8 million by approximately 5% to 10%, due primarily to the acquisition of the formerly leased land described above, partially offset by lower capital expenditures related to the development of capitalized software at Angi Inc. and Care.com.
Liquidity Assessment
On a consolidated basis, the Company generated positive cash flows from operating activities of $128.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023; excluding the positive cash flows from operating activities of $77.8 million generated by Angi Inc. and negative cash flows from operating activities of $34.1 million generated by Dotdash Meredith, the Company generated positive cash flows from operating activities of $84.6 million.
At June 30, 2023, the Company's consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, excluding MGM, were $1.4 billion, of which $370.6 million and $259.4 million was held by Angi Inc. and Dotdash Meredith, respectively. The Company's consolidated debt includes approximately $1.6 billion, which is a liability of Dotdash Meredith, Inc., and $500.0 million, which is a liability of ANGI Group, a subsidiary of Angi Inc. The Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement contains covenants that would limit Dotdash Meredith’s ability to pay dividends, incur incremental secured indebtedness, or make distributions or certain investments in the event a default has occurred or if Dotdash Meredith’s consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement, exceeds 4.0 to 1.0; this ratio was exceeded for the test period ended June 30, 2023. The Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement also permits the Company to, among other things, contribute cash to Dotdash Meredith, which will provide additional liquidity to ensure that Dotdash Meredith does not exceed certain consolidated net leverage ratios for any test period, as further defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement. In connection with these capital contributions, Dotdash Meredith may make distributions to IAC in amounts not more than any such capital contributions, provided that no default has occurred and is continuing. Such capital contributions and subsequent distributions impact the consolidated net leverage ratios of Dotdash Meredith. The Company contributed $145.0 million and $135.0 million to Dotdash Meredith in June 2023 and March 2023, respectively, which Dotdash Meredith subsequently distributed back to the Company $130.0 million, $15.0 million and $135.0 million in July, June and April 2023, respectively. Angi Inc. is an independent public company with its own public shareholders and board of directors and has no obligation to provide the Company with funds. As a result, the Company cannot freely access the cash of Angi Inc. and its subsidiaries.
The Company's liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for its products and services due to economic or other factors.
The Company believes Angi Inc.'s and Dotdash Meredith's existing cash, cash equivalents and expected positive cash flows from operations, and the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents, excluding Angi Inc. and Dotdash Meredith, will be sufficient to fund their respective normal operating requirements, including capital expenditures, debt service, the payment of withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees for net-settled stock-based awards and investing and other commitments for the next twelve months. The Company may need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing to make acquisitions and investments. Additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company, or at all, and may also be impacted by any disruptions in the financial markets. The indebtedness at Dotdash Meredith and Angi Inc. could further limit the Company's ability to raise additional financing.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Equity Price Risk
At June 30, 2023, the Company owns 64.7 million shares of MGM. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized an unrealized pre-tax loss and gain of $32.4 million and $672.5 million on its investment in MGM, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded unrealized pre-tax losses on its investment in MGM of $825.3 million and $1.0 billion, respectively.
The cumulative unrealized net pre-tax gain at June 30, 2023 is $1.6 billion. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value of the Company's investment in MGM, which includes the cumulative unrealized pre-tax gains, was $2.8 billion and $2.2 billion, or approximately 27% and 21% of the Company's consolidated total assets, respectively. A $2.00 increase or decrease in the share price of MGM would result in an unrealized gain or loss, respectively, of $129.4 million. At August 4, 2023, the fair value of the Company's investment in MGM was $2.9 billion. The Company's results of operations and financial condition have in the past been and may in the future be materially impacted by increases or decreases in the price of MGM common shares, which are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
Interest Rate Risk
At June 30, 2023, the principal amount of the Company's outstanding debt totals $2.1 billion, of which $1.6 billion is the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans, which bear interest at a variable rate, and $500.0 million is the ANGI Group Senior Notes, which bear interest at a fixed rate.
In March 2023, Dotdash Meredith entered into interest rate swaps for a total notional amount of $350 million, which synthetically converted a portion of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B from floating rate to fixed rate to manage interest rate risk exposure beginning on April 3, 2023 and applies hedge accounting to these contracts. See "Note 1—The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Note 4—Long-term Debt" to the financial statements included in "Item 1—Consolidated Financial Statements" for more information. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is estimated based on discounted cash flows Dotdash Meredith would pay or receive to terminate the swap agreements. Dotdash Meredith intends to continue to meet the conditions for hedge accounting, however, if these interest rate swaps were not highly effective in offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk, the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps used as hedges could have a significant impact on future results of operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, Adjusted Term SOFR for the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans increased an average of approximately 110 basis points relative to December 31, 2022. As a result of the increase in Adjusted Term SOFR during the six months ended June 30, 2023, the interest expense on Dotdash Meredith Term Loans, net of $1.0 million realized gains related to the $350 million in notional amount of interest rate swaps, was $4.9 million higher as compared to what interest expense would have been if the Adjusted Term SOFR been unchanged during 2023. At June 30, 2023, the outstanding balance of $1.23 billion related to the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B bore interest at Adjusted SOFR, subject to a minimum of 0.50%, plus 4.00%, or 9.26%, and the outstanding balance of $323.8 million related to the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.25%, or 7.24%. If Adjusted Term SOFR were to increase or decrease by 100 basis points, the annual interest expense on the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans, net of the impact related to the $350 million in notional amount of interest rate swaps, would increase or decrease by $12.1 million.
If market rates decline relative to interest rates on the ANGI Group Senior Notes, the Company runs the risk that the related required interest payments will exceed those based on market rates. A 100-basis point increase or decrease in the level of interest rates would, respectively, decrease or increase the fair value of the fixed-rate debt by $21.9 million. Such potential increase or decrease in fair value is based on certain simplifying assumptions, including an immediate increase or decrease in the level of interest rates with no other subsequent changes for the remainder of the period, nor changes in the credit profile.
62
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), management, including our Chairman and Senior Executive, Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chairman and Senior Executive, CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
The Company monitors and evaluates on an ongoing basis its internal control over financial reporting in order to improve its overall effectiveness. In the course of these evaluations, the Company modifies and refines its internal processes as conditions warrant.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Overview
In the ordinary course of business, IAC and its subsidiaries may become parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, intellectual property and other claims, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. The litigation matter described below involves issues or claims that may be of particular interest to IAC's stockholders, regardless of whether such matter may be material to IAC's financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Shareholder Litigation Arising Out of the MTCH Separation
This shareholder class action and derivative lawsuit pending in Delaware state court is described in detail under the captions Part I-Item 3-Legal Proceedings of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (page 34). See David Newman v. IAC/InterActiveCorp et al., No. 2020-0505 (Delaware Chancery Court), and Construction Industry & Laborers Joint Pension Trust for Southern Nevada Plan A v. IAC/InterActiveCorp et al. (Delaware Chancery Court), which have been consolidated under the caption In re Match Group, Inc. Derivative Litigation, No. 2020-0505. This lawsuit alleges that the terms of the MTCH Separation (as defined on page 31 of this quarterly report) are unfair to the former Match Group public shareholders and unduly beneficial to IAC as a result of undue influence by IAC and Mr. Diller over the then Match Group directors who unanimously approved the transaction and asserts a variety of direct and derivative claims. As previously reported, the court dismissed the action in September 2022, and the plaintiffs appealed. On May 30, 2023, after hearing oral argument on the appeal, the Delaware Supreme Court issued an order directing the parties to submit supplemental briefing concerning the correct legal standard governing judicial review of the MTCH Separation. On July 12, 2023, IAC submitted its opening brief pursuant to the court’s order. IAC believes that the allegations in this litigation are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.
