NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Acquisition of Meredith
On December 1, 2021, Dotdash Media Inc. (formerly known as About Inc., and referred to herein as "Dotdash"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of IAC/InterActiveCorp ("IAC"), completed the acquisition of Meredith Holdings Corporation ("Meredith"), which holds Meredith Corporation's national media business, consisting of its digital and magazine businesses, and its corporate operations. The parent of the combined entity is Dotdash Meredith, Inc. ("Dotdash Meredith"). See “Note 4—Business Combination” for a description of the acquisition of Meredith.
Vimeo Spin-off
On May 25, 2021, IAC completed the spin-off of its full stake in Vimeo, Inc. (formerly Vimeo Holdings, Inc. ("Vimeo")) to IAC shareholders (which we refer to as the “Spin-off”). Following the Spin-off, Vimeo became an independent, separately traded public company. Therefore, Vimeo is presented as a discontinued operation within IAC's financial statements for all periods prior to May 25, 2021. See “Note 3—Discontinued Operations” for additional details.
Nature of Operations
IAC today is comprised of Dotdash Meredith, Angi Inc. and Care.com, as well as a number of other businesses ranging from early stage to established.
As used herein, "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" and similar terms refer to IAC/InterActiveCorp and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise).
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements (collectively 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 amongst the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.
The unaudited 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 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, 2021.
COVID-19 Update
The impact on the Company from the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures designed to contain its spread has been varied and volatile. The impact on our two largest businesses is described below.

IAC/INTERACTIVECORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Angi Inc.
As previously disclosed, the impact of COVID-19 on the businesses in IAC's Angi Inc. segment initially resulted in a decline in demand for service requests, driven primarily by decreases in demand in certain categories of jobs (particularly discretionary indoor projects). While these businesses experienced a rebound in service requests from mid-2020 through early 2021, service requests started to decline in May 2021 and have continued to decline in the first half of 2022 due to the launch of Angi Inc.'s brand integration in March 2021 and the Omicron variant surge in late 2021 and early 2022. Angi Inc.'s ability to monetize service requests rebounded modestly in the second half of 2021, continued to increase in the first half of 2022, and is approaching levels experienced pre-COVID-19. No assurances can be provided that Angi Inc. will continue to be able to improve monetization, or that service professionals’ businesses and, as a consequence, our revenue and profitability will not continue to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 in the future.
Dotdash Meredith
In addition, in the first half of 2022, revenue at Dotdash, excluding Meredith, declined compared to the first half of 2021 due to lower traffic to its sites compared to prior year COVID-19 traffic highs, impacting performance marketing revenue.
Future Outlook
The extent to which developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic and measures designed to curb its spread continue to impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including the continuing spread of COVID-19, the severity of resurgences of COVID-19 caused by variant strains of the virus, the effectiveness of vaccines and attitudes toward receiving them, materials and supply chain constraints, labor shortages, the scope of governmental and other restrictions on travel, discretionary services and other activity, and public reactions to these developments.
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 equity securities; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for credit losses and the determination of revenue reserves; the determination of the customer relationship period for certain costs to obtain a contract with a customer; the carrying value of right-of-use assets ("ROU assets"); the useful lives and recoverability of buildings, capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets; the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as a result of an acquisition and the allocation of purchase price thereto; the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; the fair value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values; contingencies; the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements; unrecognized tax benefits; 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.

Accounting for Investments in Equity Securities
Investments in equity securities, other than those of the Company's consolidated subsidiaries and those accounted for under the equity method are accounted for at fair value or under the measurement alternative of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities, with any changes to fair value recognized in "Other (expense) income, net" in the statement of operations each reporting period. Under the measurement alternative, equity investments without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar securities of the same issuer; fair value is generally determined based on a market approach as of the transaction date. A security will be considered identical or similar if it has identical or similar rights to the equity securities held by the Company.
The Company accounts for investments in the common stock or in-substance common stock of entities in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial matters of the investee, but does not have a controlling financial interest, using the equity method. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has one investment accounted for using the equity method, which is included in "Long-term investments" in the balance sheet.
See "Note 6—Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements" for additional information on investments in equity securities.
General Revenue Recognition
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.
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 of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of its performance obligation is one year or less. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances are $165.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021, and $137.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020. 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. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $105.3 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2020. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances are $170.2 million and $0.4 million, at June 30, 2022, respectively. Non-current deferred revenue is included in "Other long-term liabilities" in the 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 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.

Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
The Company uses a portfolio approach to assess the accounting treatment of the incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes an asset for these costs if we expect to recover those costs. To the extent that these costs are capitalized, the resultant asset is amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of the transfer of the services to which the asset relates. The Company has determined that certain costs, primarily commissions paid to employees pursuant to certain sales incentive programs and mobile app store fees, meet the requirements to be capitalized as a cost of obtaining a contract.
Commissions Paid to Third-Party Agent Sales of Magazine Subscriptions
Dotdash Meredith uses third-party agents to obtain certain subscribers. The agents are paid a commission, which can be as much as the subscription price charged to the subscriber. Dotdash Meredith subscriptions do not have substantive termination penalties; therefore, the contract term is determined on an issue-by-issue basis. Accordingly, these costs do not qualify for capitalization because there is no contract with a customer until a copy is served to a customer; therefore these costs are expensed when the publication is sent to the customer. Dotdash Meredith recognizes a liability to the extent the commission is refundable to the third-party agent. Dotdash Meredith expenses additional amounts paid to agents (such as per subscriber bounties) to acquire subscribers as incurred. Expenses related to third-party agent sales of magazine subscriptions are included in "Selling and marketing expense" in the statement of operations.
Commissions Paid to Employees Pursuant to Sales Incentive Programs
The Company has determined that commissions paid to employees pursuant to certain sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized as the incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer. When customer renewals are expected and the renewal commission is not commensurate with the initial commission, the average customer life includes renewal periods. Capitalized commissions paid to employees pursuant to these sales incentive programs are amortized over the estimated customer relationship period and are included in "Selling and marketing expense" in the statement of operations. The Company calculates the anticipated customer relationship period as the average customer life, which is based on historical data.
For sales incentive programs where the anticipated customer relationship period is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense the commissions as incurred.
App Store Fees
The Company pays fees to the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store for the distribution of our paid mobile apps. The Company capitalizes and amortizes mobile app store fees related to subscriptions over the term of the applicable subscription. The amortization of mobile app store fees is included in "Cost of revenue" in the statement of operations.
The following table presents the capitalized costs to obtain a contract with a customer at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively:

Certain Risks and Concentrations—Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement")
A portion of the Company's revenue (and a substantial portion of IAC's net cash from operating activities attributable to continuing operations that it can freely access) is attributable to the Services Agreement. In addition, the Company earns certain other advertising revenue from Google that is not attributable to the Services Agreement. 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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, total revenue earned from Google was $169.6 million and $341.4 million, respectively, representing 20% and 21%, respectively, of the Company's revenue. The related accounts receivable totaled $56.4 million and $89.1 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
The total 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 total revenue earned from the Services Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $150.8 million and $303.3 million, respectively, representing 18% and 19%, respectively, of the Company's total revenue.
The revenue attributable to the Services Agreement is earned by Ask Media Group and the Desktop business, both within the Search segment. 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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue earned from the Services Agreement was $123.2 million and $244.6 million, respectively, within Ask Media Group and $27.6 million and $58.7 million, respectively, within the Desktop business.
The Company and Google are parties to an amended Services Agreement, which expires on March 31, 2024 and provides for an automatic renewal for an additional one year period absent a notice of non-renewal from either party on or before March 31, 2023. 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.
Certain industry-wide policy changes became effective on August 27, 2020. These industry-wide changes, combined with increased enforcement of policies under the Services Agreement, have had a negative impact on the results of operations of the B2C business. During the fourth quarter of 2020, Google suspended services with respect to some B2C's products and may do so with respect to other products in the future. As a result, the B2C business elected to modify certain marketing strategies in early January 2021. Subsequently, Google informed us of another policy change in the first quarter of 2021 that became effective on May 10, 2021. We anticipated that this Google policy change would eliminate our ability to successfully introduce and market new B2C products that would be profitable. Therefore, we undertook cost reduction measures and effectively eliminated all marketing of B2C products beginning in March 2021. This elimination of marketing positively impacted profitability starting in the second quarter of 2021 because revenue from B2C products is earned over multiple periods beyond just the period in which the initial marketing is incurred. Following the cessation of the introduction of new products in March 2021, the B2C revenue stream relates solely to the then existing installed base of products. In 2022 and beyond, we expect the revenue and profits of the B2C business to decline significantly.

Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2—INCOME TAXES
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 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.
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% for both periods. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the effective income tax rate was the same as the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to state taxes offset by the non-deductible portion of the Mosaic Group goodwill impairment charge. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the effective income tax rate was the same as the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to state taxes, offset by the non-deductible portion of the Mosaic goodwill impairment charge and non-deductible stock-based compensation expense. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $87.8 million and $141.1 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 30% and 21%, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the effective tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to an increase in the valuation allowance on beginning-of-the-year deferred tax assets related to the Spin-off and state taxes, partially offset by excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the effective income tax rate was the same as the statutory rate of 21% due to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards, offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on beginning-of-the-year deferred tax assets related to the Spin-off and state taxes.
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.
On December 19, 2019, IAC/InterActiveCorp ("Old IAC") entered into a transaction agreement with Match Group, Inc. ("Old MTCH"), IAC Holdings, Inc. ("New IAC" or the "Company"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Old IAC, and Valentine Merger Sub LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Old IAC. On June 30, 2020, the businesses of Old MTCH were separated from the remaining businesses of Old IAC through a series of transactions that resulted in the pre-transaction stockholders of Old IAC owning shares in two, separate public companies—(1) Old IAC, which was renamed Match Group, Inc. ("New Match") and which owns the businesses of Old MTCH and certain Old IAC financing subsidiaries, and (2) New IAC, which was renamed IAC/InterActiveCorp, and which owns Old IAC's other businesses—and the pre-transaction stockholders of Old MTCH (other than Old IAC) owning shares in New Match. This transaction is referred to as the "MTCH Separation."

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 Old IAC and for its tax returns filed on a standalone basis following the MTCH 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. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has substantially completed its audit of Old IAC’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2013 through 2019, which include the operations of the Company. The statute of limitations for the years 2013 through 2019 has been extended to December 31, 2023. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for tax years beginning with 2014. 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, 2022 and December 31, 2021, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, are $17.4 million and $18.0 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, at June 30, 2022 decreased by $0.6 million due primarily to a reduction in foreign reserves, partially offset by research credits. If unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2022 are subsequently recognized, $16.3 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax expense. The comparable amount at December 31, 2021 was $16.7 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $1.3 million by June 30, 2023 due to expected settlements of which $1.1 million 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. At June 30, 2022, the Company has a U.S. gross deferred tax asset of $864.9 million that the Company expects to fully utilize on a more likely than not basis. Of this amount, $770.9 million will be utilized upon the future reversal of deferred tax liabilities and the remaining net deferred tax asset of $94.0 million will be utilized based on forecasts of future taxable income. The Company’s most significant net deferred tax asset that could expire relates to U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $91.2 million. The Company expects to generate sufficient future taxable income of at least $434.1 million prior to the expiration of these NOLs, the majority of which expire between 2029 and 2036, to fully realize this deferred tax asset.

NOTE 4—BUSINESS COMBINATION
On December 1, 2021, Dotdash acquired Meredith under the terms of an agreement (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of October 6, 2021. At the effective time of the merger, each outstanding share of common stock of Meredith (other than certain excluded shares) was converted into the right to receive $42.18 in cash. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Meredith equity awards were cancelled, and in exchange each holder received such holder’s portion of the merger consideration as set forth in the Merger Agreement, less the per share exercise price in the case of stock options. The Company accounted for this acquisition as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting.

The Company acquired Meredith because it is complementary to Dotdash. The purchase was based on the expected future financial performance of Meredith under Dotdash leadership, not on the value of the net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition. This resulted in a significant portion of the purchase price being attributed to goodwill. The purchase price attributed to goodwill is not tax deductible.

In the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company reassessed the fair value of the Mosaic Group reporting unit (included in the Emerging & Other segment) and recorded an impairment of $86.7 million as 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 fair value of the Mosaic Group reporting unit was determined using both an income approach based on discounted cash flows ("DCF") and a market approach. Determining fair value using a DCF analysis requires the exercise of significant judgment with respect to several items, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows and appropriate discount rates. The expected cash flows used in the DCF analyses were based on the most recent forecast for Mosaic Group. For years beyond the forecast period, the Mosaic Group estimates was based, in part, on forecasted growth rates. The discount rate used in the DCF analyses was 16.0%, and was intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows of the Mosaic Group reporting unit. Determining fair value using a market approach considers multiples of financial metrics based on both acquisitions and trading multiples of a selected peer group of companies. From the comparable companies, a representative market multiple is determined, which is applied to financial metrics to estimate the fair value of the Mosaic Group reporting unit. To determine a peer group of companies for the Mosaic Group reporting unit, the Company considered companies relevant in terms of consumer use, monetization model, margin and growth characteristics, and brand strength operating in their respective markets. At June 30, 2022, Mosaic Group has goodwill of $156.3 million and the carrying value of this reporting unit approximates its fair value. Any subsequent declines in the fair value of Mosaic Group will result in additional goodwill impairment charges to the extent the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There are no other IAC reporting units where 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%.
The following table presents the balance of goodwill by reportable segment, including the changes in the carrying value of goodwill, for the year ended December 31, 2021:

Equity Method Investment
The Company owns common shares of Turo Inc. ("Turo"), a peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace. This investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting given the Company's ownership interest at June 30, 2022 of approximately 26.8% on a fully diluted basis in the form of preferred shares, which are not common stock equivalents. The Company accounts for the equity losses for this investment on a one quarter lag. These equity losses were immaterial.
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.

Warrant
As part of the Company's investment in Turo preferred shares, the Company received a warrant that is recorded at fair value each reporting period with any change included in "Other (expense) income, net" in the statement of operations. The warrant is measured using significant unobservable inputs and is classified in the fair value hierarchy table as Level 3. The warrant is included in "Other non-current assets" in the balance sheet.
Contingent Consideration Arrangements
At June 30, 2022, the Company has two outstanding contingent consideration arrangements related to business combinations. The maximum contingent payments related to these arrangements is $7.0 million, however, as of June 30, 2022 the Company does not expect to make any further payments on these arrangements.
Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The Company's non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, ROU assets and buildings, capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment, are adjusted to fair value only when an impairment is recognized. The Company's financial assets, comprising equity securities without readily determinable fair values, are adjusted to fair value when observable price changes are identified or an impairment is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs. See "Note 5—Goodwill And Intangible Assets" for a detailed description of the Mosaic Group goodwill impairment recorded in the second quarter of 2022.

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 proceeds of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Meredith and pay related fees and expenses. 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. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.00%, or approximately 3.15% and 2.15%, 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 approximately 5.15% and 4.50%, respectively. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the terms of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans.
The outstanding balances of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A and Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B were $341.3 million and $1.24 billion at June 30, 2022, respectively, and $350.0 million and $1.25 billion at December 31, 2021, respectively. 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. Commencing with the delivery of financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2022, pursuant to the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement, 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 Dotdash Meredith's net leverage ratio.
There were no outstanding borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement, most recently reported and was 35 basis points at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Any borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility would bear interest, at Dotdash Meredith's option, at either a base rate or term benchmark rate, plus an applicable margin, which is based on Dotdash Meredith's 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 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. There were no such limitations at June 30, 2022.
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
The ANGI Group Senior Notes were issued 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 set forth in the indenture governing the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date.
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. At June 30, 2022 there were no limitations pursuant thereto.

NOTE 9—(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company treats its common stock and Class B common stock as one class of stock for net (loss) earnings per share ("EPS") purposes as both classes of stock participate in earnings, dividends and other distributions on the same basis. The restricted stock award ("the CEO 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 CEO award.
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 (loss) earnings 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 (loss) earnings 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.

(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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had a loss from continuing operations and as a result these awards were excluded from computing dilutive earnings per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 it was more dilutive for IAC to settle these Angi Inc. equity awards. The impact on net earnings relates to the settlement of Angi Inc.'s dilutive securities in IAC common shares.

(c) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had a loss from continuing operations and, as a result, approximately 8.1 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from computing diluted EPS because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the weighted average basic shares outstanding were used to compute the EPS amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
(d) 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, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and market-based awards ("MSUs"). For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, 3.0 million potentially dilutive securities related to the CEO award were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
NOTE 10—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, 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:

NOTE 12—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 the Company believes an unfavorable outcome is not probable and, therefore, no reserve is established. Although management currently believes that resolving claims against the Company, 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 2—Income Taxes" for additional information related to income tax contingencies.

Following the Spin-off, the relationship between IAC and Vimeo is governed by a number of agreements. These agreements include a separation agreement; a tax matters agreement; a transition services agreement; an employee matters agreement; and an office lease agreement.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Vimeo had no outstanding payables or receivables due to or due from the Company pursuant to the tax sharing agreement. There were no payments to or refunds from Vimeo pursuant to this agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period following the Spin-off of May 25, 2021 through June 30, 2021.

Settlements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 triggered remeasurements of Meredith's funded pension plans in the U.K., consisting of the IPC Pension Scheme, and U.S. The IPC Pension Scheme's actuarial loss of $43.6 million and $68.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily relates to the decline in the fair value of the IPC Pension Scheme'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 the U.S. pension plan's assets exceeding the decline in the plan liabilities.
The following table summarizes the weighted average expected return on plan assets used to determine the net periodic benefit costs at June 30, 2022, following the remeasurements during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively:

NOTE 15—DOTDASH MEREDITH RESTRUCTURING CHARGES, TRANSACTION-RELATED EXPENSES AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL PAYMENTS

Transaction-Related Expenses
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Dotdash Meredith incurred $1.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of transaction-related expenses related to the acquisition of Meredith.
Change-in-Control Payments
In December 2021, Dotdash Meredith recorded $60.1 million in change in control payments, which were triggered by the acquisition and the terms of certain former executives’ contracts. On July 1, 2022, Dotdash Meredith made $83.1 million in change in control payments. An additional payment of approximately $4.3 million will be made in the fourth quarter of 2022.
NOTE 16—SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 28, 2022, following approval by the trustees of the Dotdash Meredith IPC Pension Scheme, the IPC Pension Scheme entered into an insurance buy-in contract with a private limited life insurance company to insure the remaining portion of the IPC Pension Scheme covering all IPC Pension Scheme participants who were not covered by the insurance buy-in contract entered into in May 2020. The insurance contract is designed to provide payments equal all future designated contractual benefit payments to covered participants. The benefit obligation was not transferred to the insurer, and Dotdash Meredith remains responsible for paying pension benefits to the IPC Pension Scheme participants.

(Unaudited)
As a result of this transaction, the IPC Pension Scheme incurred an actuarial loss of approximately £110 million, or $134 million based on the July 28, 2022 exchange rate. The actuarial loss will reduce the value of the net assets of the IPC Pension Scheme, which are included in other non-current assets on the balance sheet and at June 30, 2022 was $147.4 million. We are assessing whether this actuarial loss will be recorded in the quarter ending September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2022 as an expense within "Other (expense) income, net" in the statement of operations. In addition, we will be refining the estimate of the actuarial loss.
Following this transaction, the IPC Pension Scheme owns two insurance contracts that are intended to insure 100% of the future designated contractual benefit payments to all covered participants. The value of the annuity contracts and the liabilities with respect to insured participants are expected to match (i.e., the full benefits have been insured). As mentioned above, the benefit obligation was not transferred to the insurer, and Dotdash Meredith remains responsible for paying IPC Pension Scheme pension benefits. While the Company currently does not expect to be required to make additional contributions to the IPC Pension Scheme, this may change based upon future events or as additional information becomes available.
At August 5, 2022, the Company’s investment in MGM is worth $2.2 billion. This reflects an unrealized pre-tax gain of $367.2 million subsequent to June 30, 2022.

Long-term debt (for additional information see "Note 7—Long-term Debt" to the financial statements included in "Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements"):
•Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A - due December 1, 2026.

Angi Inc.'s Brand Integration Initiative
In March 2021, ANGI Homeservices Inc. changed its name to Angi Inc. and updated one of its leading websites and brands, Angie’s List, to Angi, and since then, has concentrated its marketing investment in the Angi brand in order to focus its marketing, sales, and branding efforts on a single brand.
47
Angi Inc. relies heavily on free, or organic, search results from search engine optimization and paid search engine marketing to drive traffic to its websites. This brand integration initiative initially adversely affected the placement and ranking of Angi Inc. websites, particularly Angi.com, in organic search results. Angi Inc. has now passed the anniversary of the rebranding and organic search results in the second quarter of 2022 have improved relative to the same period in 2021. Angi Inc. expects this positive trend to continue. However, organic search results are still below pre-March 2021 levels. The shift of marketing to support Angi, away from HomeAdvisor, powered by Angi, has had and continues to have a negative effect on the efficiency of its search engine marketing efforts. Angi Inc. will continue to optimize the efficiency and conversion of marketing to HomeAdvisor to maintain profitable demand generation to that domain for the foreseeable future but they do expect the trend of declining traffic to continue due to sustained marketing emphasis in favor of Angi.
Angi Services Investment
Angi Services was launched in August 2019, and Angi Inc. has invested and continues to invest significantly in Angi Services since then. However, Angi Inc believes it reached the peak investment in Angi Services in the first quarter of 2022. The investment in Angi Services had a smaller negative impact on profits in the second quarter of 2022 than the first quarter of 2022 and Angi Inc. expects this sequential trend to continue. However, Angi Inc. does not expect an impact on year-over-year profits until the fourth quarter of 2022 and they expect that positive year-over-year trend to continue into 2023.
Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges
In 2022, Dotdash Meredith announced its plans to discontinue certain print publications and the shutdown of PeopleTV to focus the portfolio and further enable investments toward digital growth. The discontinued print publications consist of Entertainment Weekly, InStyle, EatingWell, Health, Parents, and People en Español, with the April 2022 issues of these publications being their final print editions, and Martha Stewart Living, with the May 2022 issue being its final print edition. Dotdash Meredith also announced a voluntary retirement program in the first quarter of 2022 to its employees who met certain age and service requirements. In addition, actions were taken to improve efficiencies following the Meredith acquisition. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $13.7 million and $36.1 million, respectively, of related restructuring charges, including $12.6 million and $33.1 million, respectively, of severance and related costs. Dotdash Meredith anticipates the estimated remaining costs of $2.3 million will be paid by December 31, 2023 from existing cash on hand. See "Note 15—Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges, Transaction-Related Expenses and Change-in-Control Payments" to the financial statements included in "Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional information on Dotdash Meredith restructuring charges.
Certain Risks and Concentrations—Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement")
A portion of the Company's revenue (and a substantial portion of IAC's net cash from operating activities attributable to continuing operations that it can freely access) is attributable to the Services Agreement. In addition, the Company earns certain other advertising revenue from Google that is not attributable to the Services Agreement. 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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, total revenue earned from Google was $169.6 million and $341.4 million, respectively, representing 20% and 21%, respectively, of the Company's revenue. The related accounts receivable totaled $56.4 million and $89.1 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
The total 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 total revenue earned from the Services Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $150.8 million and $303.3 million, respectively, representing 18% and 19%, respectively, of the Company's total revenue.
The revenue attributable to the Services Agreement is earned by Ask Media Group and the Desktop business, both within the Search segment. 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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue earned from the Services Agreement was $123.2 million and $244.6 million, respectively, within Ask Media Group and $27.6 million and $58.7 million, respectively, within the Desktop business.

The Company and Google are parties to an amended Services Agreement, which expires on March 31, 2024 and provides for an automatic renewal for an additional one year period absent a notice of non-renewal from either party on or before March 31, 2023. 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.
Certain industry-wide policy changes became effective on August 27, 2020. These industry-wide changes, combined with increased enforcement of policies under the Services Agreement, have had a negative impact on the results of operations of the B2C business. During the fourth quarter of 2020, Google suspended services with respect to some B2C's products and may do so with respect to other products in the future. As a result, the B2C business elected to modify certain marketing strategies in early January 2021. Subsequently, Google informed us of another policy change in the first quarter of 2021 that became effective on May 10, 2021. We anticipated that this Google policy change would eliminate our ability to successfully introduce and market new B2C products that would be profitable. Therefore, we undertook cost reduction measures and effectively eliminated all marketing of B2C products beginning in March 2021. This elimination of marketing positively impacted profitability starting in the second quarter of 2021 because revenue from B2C products is earned over multiple periods beyond just the period in which the initial marketing is incurred. Following the cessation of the introduction of new products in March 2021, the B2C revenue stream relates solely to the then existing installed base of products. In 2022 and beyond, we expect the revenue and profits of the B2C business to decline significantly.
COVID-19 Update
The impact on the Company from the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures designed to contain its spread has been varied and volatile. The impact on our two largest businesses is described below.
Angi Inc.
As previously disclosed, the impact of COVID-19 on the businesses in IAC's Angi Inc. segment initially resulted in a decline in demand for service requests, driven primarily by decreases in demand in certain categories of jobs (particularly discretionary indoor projects). While these businesses experienced a rebound in service requests from mid-2020 through early 2021, service requests started to decline in May 2021 and have continued to decline in the first half of 2022 due to the launch of Angi Inc.'s brand integration in March 2021 and the Omicron variant surge in late 2021 and early 2022. Angi Inc.'s ability to monetize service requests rebounded modestly in the second half of 2021, continued to increase in the first half of 2022, and is approaching levels experienced pre-COVID-19. No assurances can be provided that Angi Inc. will continue to be able to improve monetization, or that service professionals’ businesses and, as a consequence, our revenue and profitability will not continue to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 in the future.
Dotdash Meredith
In addition, in the first half of 2022, revenue at Dotdash, excluding Meredith, declined compared to the first half of 2021 due to lower traffic to its sites compared to prior year COVID-19 traffic highs, impacting performance marketing revenue.
Future Outlook
The extent to which developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic and measures designed to curb its spread continue to impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including the continuing spread of COVID-19, the severity of resurgences of COVID-19 caused by variant strains of the virus, the effectiveness of vaccines and attitudes toward receiving them, materials and supply chain constraints, labor shortages, the scope of governmental and other restrictions on travel, discretionary services and other activity, and public reactions to these developments.

N/A = Not applicable
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021
•Dotdash Meredith revenue increased 568% to $489.5 million due to the contribution of $418.4 million from Meredith, acquired December 1, 2021, partially offset by a decrease of $4.3 million, or 15%, in Dotdash Performance Marketing Revenue. The decrease in Dotdash Performance Marketing Revenue was due primarily to declines in both affiliate commerce commission revenue and performance marketing commission revenue due primarily to lower traffic to its sites compared to the prior year COVID-19 traffic highs.
•Angi Inc. revenue increased 23% to $515.8 million driven by increases of $78.1 million, or 107%, in Angi Services Revenue and $17.8 million, or 5%, in Angi Ads and Leads Revenue, partially offset by a decrease of $1.1 million, or 5%, at the European businesses. The increase in Angi Services Revenue is due primarily to Angi Roofing, acquired July 1, 2021, and, to a lesser extent, organic growth. The increase in Angi Ads and Leads Revenue is due to price increases implemented over the past year, the anniversary of the initial impact from the brand integration that began in March 2021 and higher service professional engagement. The revenue decrease at the European businesses was due to the unfavorable impact of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound.
•Search revenue increased 8% to $198.2 million due to growth of $21.4 million, or 14%, from Ask Media Group, partially offset by a decrease of $6.8 million, or 20%, from Desktop. The increase in Ask Media Group revenue was due to higher marketing driving increased visitors to ad supported search and content websites. The decrease in Desktop revenue was due primarily to the Google policy changes announced in the prior year described above under "Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement")."
•Emerging & Other revenue increased 6% to $161.1 million due primarily to a 10% increase in revenue at Care.com and 68% growth from Bluecrew and Vivian Health on a combined basis, partially offset by lower revenue at Mosaic Group and IAC Films.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021
•Dotdash Meredith revenue increased 613% to $990.0 million due to the contribution of $857.3 million from Meredith, acquired December 1, 2021, and an increase of $2.3 million, or 3%, in Dotdash Display Advertising Revenue, partially offset by a decrease of $8.4 million, or 15%, in Dotdash Performance Marketing Revenue. The increase in Dotdash Display Advertising Revenue was due primarily to an increase in advertising sold through our sales team, partially offset by lower programmatic rates. The decrease in Dotdash Performance Marketing Revenue was due to the factor described above in the three-month discussion.
50
•Angi Inc. revenue increased 18% to $951.9 million driven by increases of $136.5 million, or 107%, in Angi Services Revenue and $9.5 million, or 1%, in Angi Ads and Leads Revenue, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million, or 4%, at the European businesses. The increases in both Angi Services Revenue and Angi Ads and Leads Revenue and the decrease in revenue at the European businesses were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
•Search revenue increased 16% to $421.6 million due to growth of $71.4 million, or 24%, from Ask Media Group, partially offset by a decrease of $14.4 million, or 20%, from Desktop. The increase in Ask Media Group revenue and the decrease in Desktop revenue were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
•Emerging & Other revenue increased 8% to $328.1 million due primarily to a 13% increase in revenue at Care.com and 76% growth from Bluecrew and Vivian Health on a combined basis, partially offset by lower revenue at IAC Films due to the delivery of a film in the first quarter of 2021, and Mosaic Group.

Included in Meredith's expense is $4.4 million of restructuring costs primarily related to the reorganization of the Dotdash Meredith business described above under "Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges."
•The Angi Inc. increase was due primarily to growth of Angi Services, including $31.4 million of costs attributable to the inclusion of Angi Roofing, primarily for roofing materials and third-party contractors.

•The Search increase was due primarily to increases of $37.4 million and $17.0 million in traffic acquisition costs at Ask Media Group resulting from the increase in revenue, and Desktop, respectively. The increase in traffic acquisition costs at Desktop is a result of unfavorable revenue share rates resulting in higher revenue share payments compared to the prior year.

Included in Meredith's expense is $4.0 million of restructuring costs primarily related to the reorganization of the Dotdash Meredith business described above under "Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges."
•The Search increase was due primarily to an increase of $17.0 in marketing at Ask Media Group, partially offset by a decrease of $5.1 million at Desktop as it eliminated all marketing of its B2C products beginning in early March 2021 due primarily to the Google policy changes in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 described above under "Certain Risks and Concentrations—Services Agreement with Google (the "Services Agreement").
•The Angi Inc. increase was due primarily to expense of $6.2 million from the inclusion of Angi Roofing, and increases in consulting costs of $2.6 million, compensation expense of $2.4 million and software maintenance costs of $1.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in lease expense of $1.3 million. The increase in consulting and software maintenance costs was due primarily to various sales initiatives at Angi Services. The increase in compensation expense was due primarily to increased wage-related expense, partially offset by a decrease in commission expense. The decrease in lease expense is a result of the Company reducing its real estate footprint in 2021.
•The Emerging & Other increase was due primarily to increases of $3.0 million in compensation expense and $2.5 million in online marketing at Care.com and an increase of $1.5 million in compensation expense at Vivian Health.

The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to an increase of $12.6 million in television spend, partially offset by a decrease of $5.2 million in online marketing spend. The increase in television spend reflects the return to historical spending levels as compared to the cost cutting initiatives during 2021 due to the impact of COVID-19 and is consistent with 2020 spend prior to COVID-19. The decrease in online marketing spend is due primarily to decreases in fees paid to app platforms and service professional marketing that were part of the investment in Angi Services in 2021, partially offset by an increase in search engine marketing spend resulting from the continued brand integration initiative. The increases in consulting and software maintenance costs and the decrease in lease expense were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.

The increase in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to the reversal of previously recognized expense related to unvested awards that were forfeited due to management departures in the first quarter of 2021 and new awards granted since the first quarter of 2021. The increase in wage-related expenses and bonuses, professional fees, software licenses and maintenance costs and the provision for credit losses were due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.

•The Emerging & Other increase was due primarily to a $7.1 million charge at Vivian Health in the second quarter of 2022 described above in the three-month discussion, and increases of $2.3 million in professional fees at Newco and $1.3 million in compensation expense at Mosaic Group, partially offset by a gain of $3.2 million at Care.com related to the termination of a lease.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021
Operating loss increased $137.7 million to $166.1 million, despite the increase of $11.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA, described below, due primarily to a goodwill impairment of $86.7 million at Mosaic Group, and increases of $42.4 million in amortization of intangibles, $11.9 million in depreciation and $7.6 million in stock-based compensation expense. The goodwill impairment at Mosaic Group is 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 increase in the amortization of intangibles was due primarily to the acquisition of Meredith, partially offset by lower expense at Care.com due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized. The increase in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to new awards granted since the first quarter of 2021. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to expense from the inclusion of Meredith.
See "Note 5—Goodwill And Intangible Assets" to the consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements" for a detailed description of the Mosaic Group goodwill impairment.
55
At June 30, 2022, Mosaic Group has goodwill of $156.3 million and the carrying value of this reporting unit approximates its fair value. Any subsequent declines in the fair value of Mosaic Group will result in additional goodwill impairment charges to the extent the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There are no other IAC reporting units where 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%.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021
Operating loss increased $239.3 million to $275.0 million due primarily to a goodwill impairment of $86.7 million at Mosaic Group, increases of $82.8 million in amortization of intangibles, $23.0 million in depreciation and $19.0 million in stock-based compensation expense, and a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $28.4 million, described below, partially offset by income of $0.6 million in an acquisition-related contingent consideration fair value adjustment. The goodwill impairment and increase in amortization of intangibles was due to the factors described above in the three-month discussion. The increase in depreciation was due primarily to expense from the inclusion of Meredith, partially offset by the write-off of certain capitalized software projects at Angi Inc. in the first half of 2021. The increase in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to the reversal of previously recognized stock-based compensation expense due to forfeitures from management departures in the first quarter of 2021 and new awards granted since the first quarter of 2021.
At June 30, 2022, there was $404.0 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 4.6 years.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021
•Dotdash Meredith Adjusted EBITDA increased 91% to $39.2 million, due to higher revenue, partially offset by $13.7 million in restructuring charges and $1.2 million in transaction-related costs associated with the Meredith acquisition described above under "Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges."
•Angi Inc. Adjusted EBITDA increased $14.1 million to $9.7 million from a loss of $4.4 million, due to higher revenue, partially offset by increases of $58.1 million in cost of revenue and $12.1 million in both selling and marketing expense and general and administrative expense, each of which are described above.
•Search Adjusted EBITDA increased 3% to $26.3 million due to an increase in Ask Media Group revenue and a decrease in marketing at Desktop as it substantially reduced marketing of its B2C products in January 2021 and the subsequent elimination of all marketing of B2C products beginning in early March 2021 as a result of Google policy changes.
56
•Emerging & Other Adjusted EBITDA decreased $24.0 million to a loss of $17.1 million due primarily to a $9.8 million charge at Vivian Health related to the sale of equity interests held by certain members of its management and the settlement of certain employee stock-based awards in conjunction with the equity raise in the second quarter of 2022, lower profits at Care.com., Mosaic Group and IAC Films and increased losses at Newco.
•Corporate Adjusted EBITDA loss decreased 7% to $20.7 million due primarily to the inclusion in 2021 of $2.0 million of transaction-related costs in connection with the Spin-off.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021
•Dotdash Meredith Adjusted EBITDA increased 18% to $47.7 million, due to higher revenue, partially offset by $36.1 million in restructuring charges and $5.2 million in transaction-related costs associated with the Meredith acquisition described above under "Dotdash Meredith Restructuring Charges."
•Angi Inc. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $12.2 million to $6.5 million, despite higher revenue, due primarily to an increase of $103.2 million in cost of revenue due primarily to the growth of Angi Services, including $58.6 million of costs attributable to the inclusion of Angi Roofing, and an increase of $9.0 million in advertising expense, due primarily to a return to historical spending levels as compared to the cost cutting initiatives during 2021 due to the impact of COVID-19, and the consolidation under a single brand on March 17, 2021, which has adversely affected both free and paid search engine marketing efforts.
•Search Adjusted EBITDA increased 17% to $51.4 million due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.
•Emerging & Other Adjusted EBITDA decreased $35.0 million to a loss of $16.1 million due primarily to the factors described above in the three-month discussion.

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, 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, 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.
The following table reconciles net (loss) earnings attributable to IAC shareholders to operating loss to Adjusted EBITDA:

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 buildings, capitalized software, leasehold improvements 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. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as advertiser relationships, licensee relationships, trade names, technology, subscriber relationships, service professional relationships, customer lists and user base, memberships, and content, 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.

Adjustments to net losses attributable to continuing operations 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 of credit losses of $51.7 million, non-cash lease expense (including right-of-use asset impairments) of $28.8 million, and net losses on investments in equity securities of $16.3 million, partially offset by deferred 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 $75.8 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 jobs at Angi Inc.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations 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 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 by financing activities attributable to continuing operations includes the repurchase of 0.7 million shares of IAC Class A 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 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.
63
2021
Adjustments to net earnings attributable to continuing operations consist primarily of $657.6 million of an unrealized gain on the investment in MGM, an unrealized increase in the estimated fair value of a warrant of $55.3 million, and net gains on investments in equity securities of $12.2 million, partially offset by $143.6 million of deferred income taxes, $42.7 million of provision for credit losses, $42.4 million of stock-based compensation expense, $36.3 million of depreciation, $30.5 million of amortization of intangibles, and non-cash lease expense (including right-of-use-asset impairments) of $19.0 million. The increase from changes in working capital primarily consists of an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $61.3 million, a decrease in other assets of $27.6 million, and an increase in deferred revenue of $15.3 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $40.7 million, a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $13.5 million and a decrease in income taxes payable and receivable of $8.5 million. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is due primarily to an increase in accrued advertising and related payables at Angi Inc. The decrease in other assets is due to decreases in prepaid hosting services at Corporate and Angi Inc. and capitalized downloadable search toolbar costs at Search. The increase in deferred revenue is due primarily to growth in subscription sales at Care.com and an increase in memberships at Angi Inc. The increase in accounts receivable is due primarily to revenue growth at Angi Inc. and the timing of cash receipts at Mosaic, partially offset by timing of cash receipts at Care.com. The decrease in operating lease liabilities is due to cash payments on leases net of interest accretion. The decrease in income taxes payable and receivable is due primarily to the release of income tax reserves due to statue expirations and income tax payments in excess of income tax accruals.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations includes the cash distribution to IAC related to the spin-off of Vimeo of $333.2 million, capital expenditures of $39.4 million primarily related to investments in capitalized software at Angi Inc. to support its products and services, and purchases of long-term investments of $7.2 million, primarily related to Turo, partially offset by maturities of marketable debt securities of $225.0 million.
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations includes $220.0 million for the prepayment of the remaining balance of the ANGI Group Term Loan, which otherwise would have matured on November 5, 2023, $54.6 million for withholding taxes paid on behalf of Angi Inc. employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, $26.3 million for withholding taxes paid on behalf of IAC employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, $24.1 million for the purchase of redeemable noncontrolling interests, and $5.6 million for the repurchase of 0.5 million shares of Angi Inc. Class A common stock, on a settlement date basis, at an average price of 11.87 per share.
Discontinued Operations
Net cash provided by discontinued operations of $319.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 relates to the operations of Vimeo. The Company does not expect cash flows from discontinued operations following the Spin-off.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financing Arrangements
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) the five-year $150 million Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility. The proceeds of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Meredith and pay related fees and expenses.
The outstanding balances of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A and Dotdash Meredith Term Loan B were $341.3 million and $1.24 billion and bore interest at approximately 3.15% and 5.15% at June 30, 2022, respectively. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the terms of the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans. 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. Commencing with the delivery of financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2022, pursuant to the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement, 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 Dotdash Meredith's net leverage ratio.
64
There were no outstanding borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility at June 30, 2022. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the Dotdash Meredith Credit Agreement, most recently reported and was 35 basis points at June 30, 2022. Any borrowings under the Dotdash Meredith Revolving Facility would bear interest, at Dotdash Meredith's option, at either a base rate or term benchmark rate, plus an applicable margin, which is based on Dotdash Meredith's 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 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. There were no such limitations at June 30, 2022.
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
The ANGI Group Senior Notes were issued 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 set forth in the indenture governing the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date.
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. At June 30, 2022 there were no limitations pursuant thereto.
The $250 million ANGI Group Revolving Facility, which otherwise would have expired on November 5, 2023, was terminated effective August 3, 2021. No amounts were ever drawn under the ANGI Group Revolving Facility prior to its termination.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, ANGI Group prepaid the remaining balance of $220.0 million of the ANGI Group Term Loan principal, which otherwise would have matured on November 5, 2023.
Investment in MGM Resorts International
On February 16, 2022, the Company purchased an additional 4.5 million shares of MGM for $202.5 million. Following this purchase, the Company owns approximately 63.5 million shares, representing a 16.2% ownership interest in MGM as of August 1, 2022.
Share Repurchase Authorizations and Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, IAC repurchased 0.7 million shares of its common stock, on a trade date basis, at an average price of $80.38 per share, or $59.1 million in aggregate. At June 30, 2022, IAC has 7.3 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Angi Inc. repurchased 1.0 million shares of its Class A common stock, on a trade date basis, at an average price of $7.80 per share, or $8.1 million in aggregate. At June 30, 2022 Angi Inc. has 15.0 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, share price and future outlook.
65
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 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.
Certain previously issued Angi Inc. stock appreciation rights are settleable in either shares of Angi Inc. common stock or shares of IAC common stock at IAC's option. If settled in IAC common stock, Angi Inc. reimburses IAC in shares of Angi Inc.'s common stock.
The following table summarizes (i) the aggregate intrinsic value of IAC options, Angi Inc. options, Angi Inc. stock settled stock appreciation rights, IAC and Angi Inc. non-publicly traded subsidiary denominated stock settled stock appreciation rights and (ii) the aggregate fair value (based on stock prices as of August 5, 2022) 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 the Company 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:
Aggregate intrinsic value / fair value of awards outstanding | Estimated withholding taxes payable on vested shares and shares that will vest by June 30, 2023 | Estimated withholding taxes payable on shares that will vest after June 30, 2023 | Estimated IAC shares to be issued | ||||||||||||||||||||

_____________________
(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.
(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 the award holder to pay its share of the withholding tax, which he or she may do by selling IAC common shares. Assuming all IAC stock options outstanding on August 5, 2022 were settled on a gross basis, i.e., through the issuance of a number of IAC common shares equal to the number of stock options exercised, the Company would have issued 2.9 million common shares and would have received $40.3 million in cash proceeds. These amounts reflect adjustments made to IAC awards upon the completion of the Spin-off.
(c) Approximately 80% of the estimated withholding taxes payable on shares that will vest after June 30, 2023 is related to awards that are scheduled to cliff vest in 2025, the five-year anniversary of the grant date.
66
(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 continued employment through the vesting date. The IAC stock price is currently below the minimum price threshold to earn the award.
(e) Includes stock options, RSUs 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, 2022, there have been no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to the Company's contractual obligations since the disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Capital and Other Expenditures
The Company anticipates that it will need to make capital and other expenditures in connection with the development and expansion of its operations. The Company's 2022 capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2021 capital expenditures of $90.2 million by approximately 60% to 70%, primarily due to the development of capitalized software to support products and services at Angi Inc., Dotdash Meredith, and Care.com, partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures at Corporate due to the purchase of a 50% interest in an aircraft in 2021.
Change-in-Control Payments
In December 2021, Dotdash Meredith recorded $60.1 million in change in control payments, which were triggered by the acquisition and the terms of certain former executives’ contracts. On July 1, 2022, Dotdash Meredith made $83.1 million in change in control payments. An additional payment of approximately $4.3 million will be made in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Liquidity Assessment
At June 30, 2022, the Company's consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and marketable equity securities, excluding MGM, were $1.8 billion, of which $361.0 million and $246.9 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., a subsidiary of IAC, and $500.0 million, which is a liability of ANGI Group, a subsidiary of Angi Inc. On a consolidated basis, the Company generated negative cash flows from operating activities of $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company generated negative cash flows from operating activities of $11.3 million, excluding the negative cash flows from operating activities of $3.7 million generated by Dotdash Meredith and the positive cash flows from operating activities of $7.1 million generated by Angi Inc. Angi Inc. is a separate and distinct legal entity 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. In addition, 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. There were no such limitations at June 30, 2022.
The Company's liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for its products and services due to COVID-19 or other factors.
The Company believes Angi Inc.'s and Dotdash's existing cash and cash equivalents and expected positive cash flows from operations and the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents 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 additional acquisitions and investments beyond the next twelve months. 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 caused by COVID-19 or otherwise. The indebtedness at Dotdash Meredith and Angi Inc., could further limit the Company's ability to raise incremental financing.
67
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Equity Price Risk
On February 16, 2022, the Company purchased an additional 4.5 million shares of MGM for $202.5 million. Following this purchase, the Company owns approximately 63.5 million shares, representing a 16.2% ownership interest in MGM as of August 1, 2022.
The Company's results of operations and financial condition have been and may be materially impacted by increases or decreases in the price of MGM common shares, which are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company recorded unrealized pre-tax losses of $825.3 million and $1.0 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company recorded unrealized pre-tax gains of $275.1 million and $657.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
The cumulative unrealized net pre-tax gain through June 30, 2022 is $617.2 million. The carrying value of the Company's investment in MGM, which includes the cumulative unrealized pre-tax gains, was $1.8 billion and $2.6 billion at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which represents approximately 17% and 22% of IAC's consolidated total assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. A $2.00 increase or decrease in the share price of MGM would, respectively, result in an unrealized pre-tax gain or loss of $127.1 million.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company's exposure to risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Adjusted Term SOFR increased nearly 100 basis points relative to December 31, 2021.
At June 30, 2022, 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. If market rates decline relative to the interest rate 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 $25.4 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. At June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance of $1.24 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 5.15% and the outstanding balance of $341.3 million related to the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.00% or 3.15%. If Adjusted Term SOFR were to increase by 100 basis points, the annual interest expense on the Dotdash Meredith Term Loans would increase by $16.1 million. If Adjusted Term SOFR were to decrease by 100 basis points, the annual interest expense on the Dotdash Meredith Term Loan A would decrease by $11.6 million.
68
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.
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 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, 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 matters described below involve issues or claims that may be of particular interest to IAC's stockholders, regardless of whether any of these matters 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, 2021 (page 36) and Part II-Item 1-Legal Proceedings of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 (page 59). 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 14 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. There have been no material or otherwise noteworthy developments in this litigation since the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022. IAC believes that the allegations in this litigation are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.
