ANGI HOMESERVICES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
ANGI Homeservices Inc. connects quality home service pros across 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling to cleaning and landscaping, with consumers. Over 250,000 domestic service professionals find work through ANGI Homeservices, and consumers turn to at least one of our brands to find a pro for more than 20 million projects each year. We’ve established category-transforming products with brands such as HomeAdvisor, Angie’s List, Handy and Fixd Repair.
At September 30, 2019, IAC owned 83.7% and 98.1% of the economic and voting interest, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices.
The Company has two operating segments (i) North America (United States and Canada), which includes HomeAdvisor, Angie's List, Handy, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair and Felix, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, and (ii) Europe, which includes Travaux, MyHammer, My Builder, Werkspot and Instapro.
As used herein, "ANGI Homeservices," the "Company," "ANGI," "we," "our" or "us" and similar terms refer to ANGI Homeservices Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise).
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
The consolidated 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. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
For the purpose of these financial statements, income taxes have been computed as if ANGI Homeservices filed on a standalone, separate tax return basis. Any differences between taxes currently payable to or receivable from IAC under the tax sharing agreement between the Company and IAC and the current tax provision computed on an as if standalone, separate return basis for GAAP are reflected as adjustments to additional paid-in capital and as financing activities within the statement of cash flows.
In management's opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Accounting Estimates
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated 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 contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to: the fair values of cash equivalents and marketable debt securities; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts; the determination of revenue reserves; the useful lives and recoverability of definite-lived intangible assets and property and equipment; the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; unrecognized tax benefits; the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)



stock-based awards, among others. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets and other factors that the Company considers relevant.
General Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services or goods is transferred to our customers and in the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods.
The Company's disaggregated revenue disclosures are presented in "Note 9—Segment Information."
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of payments that are received or are contractually due in advance of the Company's performance. 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 term of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of our performance obligation is one year or less. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances at December 31, 2018 are $61.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized $58.5 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $58.0 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of January 1, 2018. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances at September 30, 2019 are $64.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Non-current deferred revenue is included in “Other long-term liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Practical Expedients and Exemptions
As permitted under the practical expedient available under ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, 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 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 we have the right to invoice for services performed.
For sales incentive programs where the customer relationship period is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense the costs as incurred. The amount of capitalized sales commissions where the customer relationship period is greater than one year is $40.4 million and $38.8 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Pronouncement Adopted by the Company
Adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842") effective January 1, 2019. ASC 842 superseded previously existing guidance on accounting for leases and generally requires all leases to be recognized in the statement of financial position.
The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of $69.4 million of right-of-use assets ("ROU assets") and related lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019, with no cumulative effect adjustment. The adoption of ASC 842 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows.
The Company adopted ASC 842 prospectively and, therefore, did not revise comparative period information or disclosure. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842.
See "Note 2—Leases" for additional information on the adoption of ASC 842.

Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted by the Company
ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2016-13, which significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts receivable.  ASU No. 2016-13 will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses.  The provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  Upon adoption, ASU No. 2016-13 will be applied using the modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings recognized as of the date of initial application.  The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2—LEASES
The Company leases office space and equipment used in connection with its operations under various operating leases, the majority of which contain escalation clauses.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying assets for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the present value of the Company’s obligation to make payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and related lease liabilities are based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term using the Company's incremental borrowing rate on the lease commencement date or January 1, 2019 for leases that commenced prior to that date. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of lease payments in determining ROU assets and related lease liabilities. If the lease includes one or more options to extend the term of the lease, the renewal option is considered in the lease term if it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option(s). Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As permitted by ASC 842, leases with an initial term of twelve months or less ("short-term leases") are not recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Variable lease payments consist primarily of common area maintenance, utilities and taxes, which are not included in the recognition of ROU assets and related lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

NOTE 3—INCOME TAXES
The Company is included within IAC’s tax group for purposes of federal and consolidated state income tax return filings. In all periods presented, current and deferred income tax provision/benefit have been computed for the Company on an as if standalone, separate return basis and payments to and refunds from IAC for the Company's share of IAC’s consolidated federal and state tax return liabilities/receivables calculated on this basis have been reflected within cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. The tax sharing agreement between the Company and IAC governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax matters, including responsibility for taxes attributable to the Company, entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes and other matters and, therefore, ultimately governs the amount payable to or receivable from IAC with respect to income taxes. Any differences between taxes currently payable to or receivable from IAC under the tax sharing agreement and the current tax provision computed on an as if standalone, separate return basis for GAAP are reflected as adjustments to additional paid-in capital and as financing activities within the statement of cash flows.
At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
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 realizability 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 our 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 in the quarter in which the change occurs.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $4.9 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 21%. The effective income tax rate approximates the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to unbenefited foreign losses and state taxes, offset by research credits and excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an income tax benefit, despite pre-tax income, of $7.1 million due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $5.1 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 16%. The effective income tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax benefit, despite pre-tax income, of $0.6 million due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards.
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 is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax as a result of previously filed separate company and consolidated tax returns with IAC. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing IAC’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2010 through 2016, which includes the operations of the HomeAdvisor business. The statute of limitations for the years 2010 through 2012 has been extended to July 31, 2020 and the statute of limitations for the years 2013 through 2015 has been extended to December 31, 2020. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for various tax years beginning with 2009. Income taxes payable include unrecognized tax benefits considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our 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

13

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)



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 September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, are $3.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $2.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively, was included in unrecognized tax positions for tax positions included in IAC’s consolidated tax return filings. If unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2019 are subsequently recognized, the income tax provision would be reduced by $3.4 million. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2018 is $2.4 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $1.4 million by September 30, 2020 due to potential settlements, which would reduce the income tax provision.
The Company regularly assesses the realizability of deferred tax assets considering all available evidence including, to the extent applicable, the nature, frequency and severity of prior cumulative losses, forecasts of future taxable income, tax filing status, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, available tax planning and historical experience. As of September 30, 2019, the Company has a United States ("U.S.") gross deferred tax asset of $151.4 million that the Company expects to fully utilize on a more likely than not basis. Of this amount, $33.6 million will be utilized upon the future reversal of deferred tax liabilities and the remaining net deferred tax asset of $117.8 million will be utilized based on forecasts of future taxable income.
NOTE 4—BUSINESS COMBINATION
On October 19, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of Handy Technologies, Inc. ("Handy"), a leading platform in the U.S. for connecting individuals looking for household services. The Company's purchase accounting is substantially complete; there were no material adjustments recorded during the first nine months of 2019 related to purchase accounting, with the exception of the allocation of approximately $27.2 million to pre-acquisition net operating losses, which reduced goodwill by the same amount. Purchase accounting will be finalized in the fourth quarter of 2019.
Unaudited pro forma financial information
The unaudited pro forma financial information in the table below presents the combined results of the Company and Handy as if this acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma financial information includes adjustments required under the acquisition method of accounting and is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2017.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale marketable debt securities were $25.0 million. There were no proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale marketable debt securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The specific-identification method is used to determine the cost of available-for-sale marketable debt securities sold and the amount of unrealized gains and losses reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. There were no gross realized gains or losses from the sales of available-for-sale marketable debt securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
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:

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of long-term debt, net includes unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.9 million and $2.5 million, respectively.
At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion, is estimated using observable market prices or indices for similar liabilities, which are Level 2 inputs. The fair value of long-term debt—related party was based on Level 3 inputs and was estimated by discounting the future cash flows based on current market conditions.

Term Loan and Credit Facility
At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the outstanding balance of the term loan ("Term Loan") was $250.9 million and $261.3 million, respectively. At both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The spread over LIBOR is subject to change in future periods based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio. The interest rate was 3.53% and 3.98% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the term of the loan. Additionally, there are quarterly principal payments of $3.4 million through December 31, 2021, $6.9 million for the one-year period ending December 31, 2022 and $10.3 million through maturity of the loan when the final amount of $161.6 million is due.
The Term Loan requires the Company to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of not more than 4.5 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.0 to 1.0 (in each case as defined in the credit agreement). The Term Loan also contains covenants that would limit the Company's ability to pay dividends, make distributions or repurchase its stock in the event a default has occurred or its consolidated net leverage ratio exceeds 4.25 to 1.0. There are additional covenants under the Term Loan that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions.
On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year $250 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio most recently reported and is 25 basis points at both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at either a base rate or LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, which is based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio. The financial and other covenants are the same as those for the Term Loan.
The Term Loan and Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

________________________
(a) 
If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock appreciation rights, stock options and subsidiary denominated equity and vesting of restricted stock units. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, 6.4 million and 6.0 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, 0.2 million and 0.3 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
(b) 
Performance-based stock units ("PSUs") and market-based awards are considered contingently issuable shares. Shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of PSUs and market-based awards are included in the denominator for earnings per share if (i) the applicable performance or market condition(s) has been met and (ii) the inclusion of the PSUs and market-based awards is dilutive for the respective reporting periods. For both three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, 4.8 million shares underlying PSUs and market-based awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the performance or market conditions had not been met. For both the three and nine months ended September 30,

(c) 
The Company’s primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable. The Company believes this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Moreover, our management uses this measure internally to evaluate the performance of our businesses, and this measure is one of the primary metrics on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

NOTE 11—CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal matters when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is not probable and, therefore, no reserve is established. Although management currently believes that resolving claims against us, including claims where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, 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. The Company also evaluates other contingent matters, including income and non-income tax contingencies, to assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and estimated extent of potential loss. It is

possible that an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits or other contingencies could have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company. See "Note 3—Income Taxes" for additional information related to income tax contingencies.
NOTE 12—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS WITH IAC
The Company and IAC entered into certain agreements to govern our relationship following the combination of IAC's HomeAdvisor business and Angie's List, Inc. on September 29, 2017 (the "Combination"). These agreements include: a contribution agreement; an investor rights agreement; a services agreement; a tax sharing agreement; and an employee matters agreement.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company was charged $1.0 million and $3.7 million; and $1.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively, by IAC for services rendered pursuant to the services agreement, which were paid in full by the Company at September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. At December 31, 2018, the Company had an outstanding receivable due from IAC of $0.1 million, pursuant to the services agreement. This amount was deducted from the charges due to IAC pursuant to the services agreement discussed above during the first quarter of 2019.
At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding payables of $0.7 million and $12.1 million due to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, which is included in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. During the first quarter of 2019, $11.4 million was paid to IAC pursuant to this agreement.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, 0.1 million and 0.5 million shares, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices Class B common stock were issued to IAC pursuant to the employee matters agreement as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise and vesting of IAC equity awards held by ANGI Homeservices employees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, less than 0.1 million and 0.7 million shares, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices Class B common stock were issued to IAC pursuant to the employee matters agreement.
The Company subleases office space to IAC and charged IAC $0.5 million and $1.0 million of rent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. There was an outstanding receivable of less than $0.1 million due from IAC at September 30, 2019 pursuant to sublease agreements.
Long-term debt—related party
Immediately prior to the Combination, the Company, through a foreign subsidiary, sold a promissory note in the amount of €2.4 million to a foreign subsidiary of IAC. During the first quarter of 2019, the amount outstanding on the promissory note at December 31, 2018 of €0.9 million, or $1.0 million, was repaid.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
GENERAL
Management Overview
ANGI Homeservices Inc. ("ANGI Homeservices," the "Company," "ANGI," "we," "our," or "us") connects quality home service pros across 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling to cleaning and landscaping, with consumers. Over 250,000 domestic service professionals find work through ANGI Homeservices, and consumers turn to at least one of our brands to find a pro for more than 20 million projects each year. We’ve established category-transforming products with brands such as HomeAdvisor, Angie’s List, Handy and Fixd Repair.
The Company has two operating segments: (i) North America (United States and Canada), which includes HomeAdvisor, Angie's List, Handy, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair and Felix, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, and (ii) Europe, which includes Travaux, MyHammer, MyBuilder, Werkspot and Instapro.
For a more detailed description of the Company's operating businesses, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Operating Metrics:
In connection with the management of our businesses, we identify, measure and assess a variety of operating metrics. The principal metrics we use in managing our businesses are set forth below:
Marketplace Revenue includes revenue from the HomeAdvisor and Handy domestic marketplace, including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches, revenue from completed jobs sourced through the HomeAdvisor and Handy platforms and membership subscription revenue from service professionals. It excludes revenue from Angie's List, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair and Felix.
Advertising & Other Revenue includes Angie’s List revenue (revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising and membership subscription fees from consumers) as well as revenue from mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair (a home warranty and service company acquired on January 25, 2019) and, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, Felix.
Marketplace Service Requests are fully completed and submitted domestic customer service requests to HomeAdvisor and completed jobs sourced through the HomeAdvisor and Handy platforms.
Marketplace Paying Service Professionals ("Marketplace Paying SPs") are the number of HomeAdvisor and Handy domestic service professionals that paid for consumer matches or completed a job sourced through the HomeAdvisor and Handy platforms in the last month of the period and/or had an active HomeAdvisor membership subscription on the last day of the relevant period.
Advertising Service Professionals ("Advertising SPs") are the total number of Angie’s List service professionals under contract for advertising at the end of the period.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Marketplace Revenue is primarily derived from (i) consumer connection revenue, which comprises fees paid by HomeAdvisor service professionals for consumer matches (regardless of whether the service professional ultimately provides the requested service) and fees from completed jobs sourced through the HomeAdvisor and Handy platforms, and (ii) membership subscription fees paid by HomeAdvisor service professionals. Consumer connection revenue varies based upon several factors, including the service requested, product experience offered and geographic location of service. Advertising & Other Revenue is primarily derived from Angie's List (i) sales of time-based website, mobile and call center advertising to service professionals and (ii) membership subscription fees from consumers.

Operating Costs and Expenses:
Cost of revenue - consists primarily of credit card processing fees, compensation expense and other employee-related costs at Fixd Repair for service work performed, hosting fees and traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs include amounts based on revenue share arrangements, which relate to Felix for periods prior to its sale.
Selling and marketing expense - consists primarily of advertising expenditures, which include online marketing, including fees paid to search engines, offline marketing, which is primarily television advertising, and partner-related payments to those who direct traffic to our brands, compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for our sales force and marketing personnel, and facilities costs.
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, fees for professional services (including transaction-related costs related to acquisitions), bad debt expense, software license and maintenance costs and facilities costs. Our customer service function includes personnel who provide support to our service professionals and consumers.
Product development expense - consists primarily of compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, development, testing and enhancement of product offerings and related technology, software license and maintenance costs and facilities costs.
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 earnings attributable to ANGI Homeservices Inc. shareholders to operating income to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
The Combination
On September 29, 2017, IAC/InterActiveCorp's ("IAC") HomeAdvisor business and Angie's List, Inc. ("Angie's List") combined under a new publicly traded company called ANGI Homeservices Inc. (the "Combination"). At September 30, 2019, IAC owned 83.7% and 98.1% of the economic and voting interest, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company incurred $7.5 million and $25.2 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense related to the modification of previously issued HomeAdvisor equity awards and previously issued Angie's List equity awards, both of which were converted into ANGI Homeservices' equity awards in the Combination, and the acceleration of certain converted equity awards resulting from the termination of Angie's List employees in connection with the Combination. The comparable amounts incurred by the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $16.0 million and $51.9 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense arising from the Combination is expected to be approximately $8 million for the remainder of 2019 and $20 million in 2020.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019:
Revenue increased $54.2 million, or 18%, driven by growth in North America of $52.5 million, or 18%, and in Europe of $1.7 million, or 10%. North America revenue growth was driven by Marketplace Revenue growth of $57.5 million, or 27%, reflecting, in part, the contribution from Handy, partially offset by a decrease of $4.9 million, or 7%, in Advertising & Other Revenue, driven principally by the sale of Felix on December 31, 2018, partially offset by the contribution from Fixd Repair.
Operating income decreased $8.8 million, or 26%, due primarily to a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $18.8 million, described below, and an increase of $5.1 million in depreciation, partially offset by decreases of $13.7 million in stock-based compensation expense and $1.4 million in amortization of intangibles. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to the development of capitalized software to support our products and services, as well as leasehold improvements related to additional office space. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $8.6 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($7.5 million in 2019 compared to $16.0 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.6 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by $2.9 million of expense related to awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy (acquired on October 19, 2018) and Fixd Repair (acquired on January 25, 2019) and the issuance of new equity awards since 2018. The decrease in amortization of intangibles was due primarily to lower expense from the Combination and certain intangible assets that became fully amortized in 2019, partially offset by an increase in amortization expense related to the acquisition of Handy.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 24% to $58.9 million, despite higher revenue, due primarily to higher selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue, investments in Fixd Repair and Handy and an increase of $2.8 million in bad debt expense due to higher Marketplace Revenue, partially offset by the inclusion in 2018 of $1.3 million in transaction-related costs related to the acquisition of Handy and $1.0 million in costs related to the Combination (including deferred revenue write-offs, severance, retention and integration related costs).
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019:
Revenue increased $151.4 million, or 18%, driven by growth in North America of $145.4 million, or 18%, and in Europe of $6.0 million, or 11%. North America revenue growth was driven by Marketplace Revenue growth of $166.6 million, or 29%, reflecting, in part, the contribution from Handy, partially offset by a decrease of $21.2 million,

or 10%, in Advertising & Other Revenue driven principally by the sale of Felix, partially offset by the contribution from Fixd Repair.
Operating income decreased $13.5 million, or 29%, due primarily to a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $33.8 million, described below, and an increase of $8.9 million in depreciation, partially offset by decreases of $23.8 million in stock-based compensation expense and $5.3 million in amortization of intangibles. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $26.6 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($25.2 million in 2019 compared to $51.9 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.6 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by $8.5 million of expense related to awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy and Fixd Repair and the issuance of new equity awards since 2018. The increase in depreciation and the decrease in amortization of intangibles were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 19% to $147.5 million, despite higher revenue, due primarily to higher selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue, an increase of $14.4 million in bad debt expense due to higher Marketplace Revenue, and investments in Fixd Repair and Handy, partially offset by the inclusion in 2018 of $8.9 million in costs related to the Combination (including deferred revenue write-offs, severance, retention and integration related costs) and $1.3 million in transaction-related costs related to the acquisition of Handy.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018
North America revenue increased $52.5 million, or 18%, driven by an increase in Marketplace Revenue of $57.5 million, or 27%, partially offset by a decrease of $4.9 million, or 7%, in Advertising & Other Revenue. The increase in Marketplace Revenue was due to an increase in consumer connection revenue of $57.5 million, or 29%, which was driven by a 19% increase in Marketplace Service Requests to 7.6 million, reflecting, in part, the contribution from Handy. The decrease in Advertising & Other Revenue was driven principally by the sale of Felix on December 31, 2018, partially offset by the contribution from Fixd Repair.
Europe revenue grew $1.7 million, or 10%, due to growth across several countries, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018
North America revenue increased $145.4 million, or 18%, driven by an increase in Marketplace Revenue of $166.6 million or 29%, partially offset by a decrease of $21.2 million, or 10%, in Advertising & Other Revenue. The increase in Marketplace Revenue was due primarily to an increase in consumer connection revenue of $164.1 million, or 31%, which was driven by a 17% increase in Marketplace Service Requests to 21.3 million, reflecting, in part, the contribution from Handy. The decrease in Advertising & Other Revenue was driven principally by the sale of Felix, partially offset by the contribution from Fixd Repair.
Europe revenue grew $6.0 million, or 11%, due to growth across several countries, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018
North America cost of revenue decreased $0.8 million, or 6%, due primarily to a decrease of $6.5 million in traffic acquisition costs due to the sale of Felix, partially offset by $5.3 million of expense from the inclusion of Fixd Repair and Handy and an increase of $0.8 million in credit card processing fees due to higher Marketplace Revenue.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018

North America selling and marketing expense increased $58.8 million, or 46%, driven by an increase in advertising expense of $43.0 million, expense of $9.7 million from the inclusion of Handy and Fixd Repair, and an increase in compensation expense of $6.3 million. The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to increased online marketing and television spend. The efficiency of online marketing spend was negatively impacted by traffic sourced through Google. Service requests from free search engine traffic declined from the prior year, while service requests from paid search engine marketing increased, and were considerably more expensive than the prior year on average. While we expect this trend to continue for the balance of 2019, we expect the year over year increase in average cost of service requests from paid search engine marketing in 2020 to be more modest due, in part, to changes we recently implemented. Compensation expense increased due primarily to growth in the sales force.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018
North America selling and marketing expense increased $149.0 million, or 39%, driven by an increase in advertising expense of $105.6 million, expense of $23.8 million from the inclusion of Handy and Fixd Repair, and an increase in compensation expense of $18.3 million. The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to increased online marketing and television spend. The efficiency of online marketing spend was negatively impacted by traffic sourced through Google as described above in the three-month discussion. Compensation expense increased due primarily to growth in the sales force.
Europe selling and marketing expense increased $1.8 million, or 6%, driven by an increase in advertising expense of $3.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in compensation expense of $1.2 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018
North America general and administrative expense decreased $1.3 million, or 2%, due primarily to a decrease in compensation expense of $12.6 million and the inclusion in 2018 of $1.3 million in transaction-related costs related to the acquisition of Handy, partially offset by expense of $7.9 million from the inclusion of Handy and Fixd Repair, which includes $1.7 million of stock-based compensation expense related to awards issued in connection with these acquisitions, an increase of $2.4 million in bad debt expense due to higher Marketplace Revenue, and an increase of $0.9 million in software license and maintenance costs. The decrease in compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $14.6 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in headcount resulting from existing business growth. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense reflects a decrease of $7.5 million in expense due to the modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($6.3 million in 2019 compared to $13.8 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.3 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by the issuance of new equity awards since 2018.
Europe general and administrative expense increased $1.5 million, or 25%, due primarily to $0.7 million related to the recently enacted French digital services tax, which is retroactive to the beginning of 2019, and increases in bad debt expense of $0.5 million and compensation expense of $0.2 million, due, in part, to increased headcount.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018
North America general and administrative expense increased $14.6 million, or 7%, due primarily to expense of $22.7 million from the inclusion of Handy and Fixd Repair, which includes $6.8 million of stock-based compensation expense related to awards issued in connection with these acquisitions, an increase of $13.2 million in bad debt expense due to higher Marketplace Revenue, and increases of $2.3 million in software license and maintenance costs and $1.6 million in facilities costs, partially offset by a decrease in compensation expense of $25.0 million, the inclusion in 2018 of $3.6 million in integration-related costs in connection with the Combination and the inclusion in 2018 of transaction-related costs related to the acquisition of Handy of $1.3 million. The decrease in compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $29.6 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in headcount resulting from existing business growth. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense reflects a decrease of $24.4 million in expense due to the modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($20.9 million in 2019 compared to $45.3 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.3 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by the issuance of new equity awards since 2018.
Europe general and administrative expense increased $2.1 million, or 11%, due primarily to increases of $1.2 million in bad debt expense, $0.7 million related to the recently enacted French digital services tax and compensation expense of $0.6 million due, in part, to increased headcount, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation expense.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018
North America operating income decreased $8.9 million, due to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $18.1 million, described below, and an increase of $5.1 million in depreciation, partially offset by decreases of $13.6 million in stock-based compensation expense and $0.7 million in amortization of intangibles. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to the development of capitalized software to support our products and services, as well as leasehold improvements related to additional office space. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $8.6 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($7.5 million in 2019 compared to $16.0 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.6 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by $2.9 million of expense related to awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy and Fixd Repair and the issuance of new equity awards since 2018. The decrease in amortization of intangibles was due primarily to lower expense from the Combination, partially offset by an increase in amortization expense related to the acquisition of Handy.

Table of Contents

Europe operating loss decreased $0.1 million, or 5%, despite higher Adjusted EBITDA losses of $0.7 million, described below, due primarily to a decrease of $0.7 million in amortization of intangibles due primarily to certain intangible assets that became fully amortized in 2019 and a decrease of $0.1 million in stock-based compensation expense.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018

The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $26.6 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($25.2 million in 2019 compared to $51.9 million in 2018) and the reversal of $7.6 million in cumulative expense related to certain performance-based awards in the current period that are no longer expected to vest, partially offset by $8.5 million of expense related to awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy and Fixd Repair and the issuance of new equity awards since 2018. The increase in depreciation and the decrease in amortization of intangibles were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
Europe operating loss decreased $2.9 million, or 27%, due to the lower Adjusted EBITDA losses of $0.7 million, described below, and decreases of $2.1 million in amortization of intangibles and $0.3 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $0.2 million in depreciation. The decrease in amortization of intangibles was due primarily to the factor described above in the three-month discussion.
At September 30, 2019, there is $112.2 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 2.4 years.

The income tax provision in 2019 of $4.9 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 21%, approximates the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to unbenefited foreign losses and state taxes, offset by research credits and excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards.
The income tax provision in 2018 of $5.1 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 16%, is lower than the statutory rate of 21%, due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018
The income tax benefits in 2019 and 2018, despite pre-tax income, were due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards.

PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

We report 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, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. 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, however, should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We endeavor 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 amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable. 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. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded from Adjusted EBITDA
Stock-based compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions (including the Combination), of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), stock options and performance-based RSUs. These expenses are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. Performance-based RSUs are included only to the extent the applicable performance condition(s) have been met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period). To the extent that stock-based awards are settled on a net basis, the Company remits the required tax-withholding amount from its current funds.

Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our property and equipment 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 (including the Combination). At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as service professional relationships, technology, memberships, customer lists and user base, and trade names, 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 impairment charges of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

Net cash provided by operating activities consists of earnings adjusted for non-cash items and the effect of changes in working capital. Non-cash adjustments include bad debt expense, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles, depreciation, and deferred income taxes.
2019
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $49.3 million of bad debt expense, $45.6 million of stock-based compensation expense, $42.4 million of amortization of intangibles, and $27.0 million of depreciation, partially offset by $8.3 million of deferred income taxes. The deferred income tax benefit primarily relates to the net operating loss created by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of an increase in

39

Table of Contents

accounts receivable of $66.6 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $30.6 million, and a decrease in other assets of $15.7 million. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to revenue growth in North America. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is primarily due to an increase in accrued advertising and related payables. The decrease in other assets is due, in part, to a receipt of tenant improvement allowances.
Net cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures of $54.8 million, primarily related to investments in the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services and leasehold improvements, $20.3 million of cash principally related to the acquisition of Fixd Repair, partially offset by $25.0 million of proceeds from maturities of marketable debt securities, and $23.6 million of net proceeds from the December 31, 2018 sale of Felix.
Net cash used in financing activities includes $34.0 million for the repurchase of 4.1 million shares of ANGI common stock, on a settlement date basis, at an average price of $8.23 per share, $30.0 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, an $11.4 million distribution to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, and $10.3 million of principal payments on the Term Loan.
2018
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $69.4 million of stock-based compensation expense, $47.7 million of amortization of intangibles, $34.8 million of bad debt expense and $18.2 million of depreciation. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of an increase in accounts receivable of $52.0 million and an increase in other assets of $19.0 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $11.3 million. The increase in accounts receivable is due primarily to revenue growth in North America. The increase in other assets is due to increases in capitalized sales commissions and prepaid marketing. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is due to an increase in deferred rent in connection with the expansion of office space and an increase in accrued advertising.
Net cash used in investing activities includes purchases of marketable debt securities of $34.8 million and capital expenditures of $32.9 million, primarily related to investments in the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services, leasehold improvements and computer hardware, partially offset by $10.4 million in net proceeds from the sale of Angie's List's campus located in Indianapolis.
Net cash used in financing activities includes $27.2 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that were net settled and $10.3 million in principal payments on the Term Loan, partially offset by $2.9 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Liquidity and capital resources
On November 1, 2017, the Company borrowed $275 million under a term loan facility ("Term Loan"). On November 5, 2018, the Term Loan was amended and restated, and is now due on November 5, 2023. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the term of the loan. Additionally, there are quarterly principal payments of $3.4 million through December 31, 2021, $6.9 million for the one-year period ending December 31, 2022 and $10.3 million through maturity of the loan when the final amount of $161.6 million is due. At September 30, 2019, the Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%, or 3.53%. The spread over LIBOR is subject to change in future periods based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio.
On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year $250 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). At September 30, 2019, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Both the Term Loan and Credit Facility borrowings are guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The terms of the Credit Facility and the Term Loan require ANGI to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of not more than 4.5 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.0 to 1.0. There are additional covenants under both the Term Loan and the Credit Facility that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions.
On February 6, 2019, the Board of Directors of ANGI Homeservices authorized the Company to repurchase up to 15 million shares of its common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 4.2 million shares, on a trade date basis, of its common stock at an average price of $8.22 per share, or $34.2 million in aggregate. From October 1, 2019 through November 1, 2019, the Company repurchased an additional 1.1 million shares at an average price of $6.85 per share, or $7.4 million in aggregate. The Company has 9.8 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization. The Company may purchase shares over an indefinite period of time on the open market and in privately

Table of Contents

negotiated transactions, depending on those factors ANGI management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, share price and future outlook.
The Company currently settles all equity awards on a net basis. In connection with the Combination, previously issued stock appreciation rights related to the common stock of HomeAdvisor (US) were converted into ANGI stock appreciation rights that are settleable, at the Company's option, on a net basis with ANGI remitting withholding taxes on behalf of the employee or on a gross basis with the Company issuing a sufficient number of Class A shares to cover the withholding taxes. In addition, at IAC's option, these awards can be settled in either Class A shares of ANGI or shares of IAC common stock. If settled in IAC common stock, ANGI reimburses IAC in either cash or through the issuance of Class A shares to IAC. Assuming all of the stock appreciation rights outstanding on November 1, 2019 were net settled on that date, ANGI would have issued 6.2 million Class A shares (either to award holders or to IAC as reimbursement) and ANGI would have remitted $43.7 million in cash for withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate). The Company's cash withholding obligation on all other ANGI net settled awards, including stock options, RSUs and subsidiary denominated equity, outstanding on November 1, 2019 is $21.7 million (assuming a 50% withholding rate), which is the equivalent of 3.1 million shares.
Prior to the Combination, IAC issued a number of IAC denominated PSUs to certain ANGI employees. Vesting of the PSUs is contingent upon ANGI's performance. These awards are settled in shares of IAC common stock. ANGI reimburses IAC, at IAC's option, in either cash or through the issuance of Class B shares to IAC. As of November 1, 2019, these PSUs are no longer expected to vest.
The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents, available borrowings under the Credit Facility and expected positive cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to fund its 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 foreseeable future. The Company's 2019 capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2018 capital expenditures of $47.0 million by approximately 50% to 55%, due primarily to higher capital expenditures related to the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services, as well as leasehold improvements related to additional office space. The Company's liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for its products and services.
The Company’s indebtedness could limit its ability to: (i) obtain additional financing to fund working capital needs, acquisitions, capital expenditures or debt service or other requirements; and (ii) use operating cash flow to make certain acquisitions or investments, in the event a default has occurred or, in certain circumstances, if its leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility and Term Loan) exceeds the ratios set forth in the Term Loan. There were no such limitations at September 30, 2019.
At September 30, 2019, IAC held all Class B shares of ANGI, which represent 83.7% of the economic interest and 98.1% of the voting interest of ANGI. As a result, IAC has the ability to control ANGI’s financing activities, including the issuance of additional debt and equity securities by ANGI or any of its subsidiaries, or the incurrence of other indebtedness generally. While ANGI is expected to have the ability to access debt and equity markets if needed, such transactions may require the approval of IAC due to its control of the majority of the outstanding voting power of ANGI’s capital stock and its representation on the ANGI board of directors. Additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company or at all.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
The Company monitors and evaluates on an ongoing basis its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve their overall effectiveness. In the course of these evaluations, the Company modifies and refines its internal processes as conditions warrant.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company’s management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, evaluated 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, management has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes to the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Overview
In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are (or 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. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings, the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the description of material pending legal proceedings (other than ordinary, routine litigation incident to the registrant’s business) and advise that proceedings ordinarily need not be described if they primarily involve damages claims for amounts (exclusive of interest and costs) not exceeding 10% of the current assets of the registrant and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In the judgment of Company management, none of the pending litigation matters which we are defending, including the one described below, involves or is likely to involve amounts of that magnitude. The litigation matter described below involves issues or claims that may be of particular interest to our stockholders, regardless of whether this matter may be material to our financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Service Professional Class Action Litigation against HomeAdvisor   
This purported class action pending in Colorado is described in detail on page 24 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, page 38 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 and page 45 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2019. See Airquip, Inc. et al. v. HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. l:16-cv-1849 and Costello et al. v. HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. 1:18-cv-1802, both filed in U.S. District Court in Colorado and consolidated under the caption In re HomeAdvisor, Inc. Litigation. This lawsuit alleges that our HomeAdvisor business engages in certain deceptive practices affecting the service professionals who join its network, including charging them for substandard customer leads or failing to disclose certain charges. On September 25, 2019, the court issued an order granting the plaintiffs’ motion to file a consolidated amended complaint. On October 9, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss certain claims in the amended complaint. There have been no other material or otherwise noteworthy developments in this case since the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2019. The Company believes that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The use of words such as "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "plans" and "believes," among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements relating to the Company's future financial performance, business prospects and strategy, anticipated trends and prospects in home services industry and other similar matters. These forward-looking statements are based on Company management's current expectations and assumptions about future events, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.
Actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others: our ability to compete, the failure or delay of the home services market to migrate online, adverse economic events or trends (particularly those that adversely impact consumer confidence and spending behavior), our ability to establish and maintain relationships with quality service professionals, our ability to build, maintain and/or enhance our various brands, our ability to market our various products and services in a successful and cost-effective manner, our continued ability to communicate with consumers and service professionals via e-mail (or other sufficient means), our ability develop and monetize version of our products and services for mobile devices, the integrity, efficiency and scalability of our technology systems and infrastructures (and those of third parties), any challenge to the contractor classification or employment status of Handy service professionals, our ability to protect our systems, technology and infrastructure from cyberattacks and to protect personal and confidential user information, the occurrence of data security breaches, fraud and/or additional regulation involving or impacting credit card payments, operational and financial risks relating to acquisitions, our ability to operate (and expand into) international markets successfully, our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights and not infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, changes in key personnel, increased costs and strain on our management as a result of operating as a new public company and various risks related to our relationship with IAC and our outstanding indebtedness. Certain of these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in our filings with the SEC, including in Part I-Item 1A-Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
Other unknown or unpredictable factors that could also adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results may arise from time to time. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report may not prove to be accurate. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only reflect the views of Company management as of the date of this quarterly report. We do not undertake to update these forward-looking statements.
Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The Employee Matters Agreement dated as of September 29, 2017, by and between us and IAC (the “Employee Matters Agreement”), provides, among other things, that we will reimburse IAC for the cost of certain equity awards held by our current and former employees and that IAC may elect to receive payment either in cash or shares of our Class B common stock.
Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, 116,738 shares of Class B common stock were issued to IAC on September 30, 2019 as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the settlement of certain equity awards held by our employees during the quarter ended September 30, 2019. This issuance did not involve any underwriters or public offerings and we believe that such issuance was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
