EXPLANATORY NOTE
The Company is restating its financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2007 by amending its 2007 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended
September 30, 2007.
All amendments and restatements to the financial statements affected are non-cash in nature.
See Note 2 to the financial statements included elsewhere herein for a complete description of the
restatement. The following is a brief summary of the impact of the restatement:
In the second quarter of 2007, the Company modified the terms for granting its restricted stock
unit awards, which created a new measurement date. The modification was entered into because the
2006 grants required a three-year projection of financial performance in a highly competitive and
rapidly changing market and the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors wanted to better reflect the current strategy of the Company while adhering to the
original goals of increased and sustained performance. As a result, management should have
assessed the likelihood of achieving the original targets and awarding the restricted stock as
improbable. As such, SFAS 123R required that any previously recognized expense related to the
restricted stock units be reversed and that the Company remeasure the fair value of the grants and
defer any future compensation expense until it was probable that the awards would ultimately vest.
Instead, the awards continued to be accounted for under the assumption that 100% would be vested.
The reported results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 have been revised to
reverse all previously recognized compensation expense related to the restricted stock units.
An explanation of the errors and their impact on the Companys financial statements is contained in
Note 2 to the financial statements contained in Item 1 of this report.
For the convenience of the reader, this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the Original Filing in its entirety,
as amended by, and to reflect, the restatement. The following sections of this Form 10-Q/A have
been amended to reflect the restatement:
Part I Item 1 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Part I Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, as to matters related to the restatement
Other than as stated above, this Form 10-Q/A continues to reflect the results as of, and for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, or (where applicable) as of the date of the
Original Filing, and the information in this Form 10-Q/A does not modify or update any other item
or disclosure in the Original Filing or reflect any other events occurring after the Original
Filing.
This amended Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with any current reports that have been
filed on Form 8-K subsequent to the date of the Original Filing.

MOVE, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Business
Move, Inc. (the Company) has created an online service that enables consumers to find real
estate listings and other content related to residential real estate, moving and relocation. The
Companys web sites collectively have become the leading consumer destination on the Internet for
home and real estate-related information based on the number of visitors, time spent on its web
sites and number of property listings. The Company generates most of its revenue from selling
advertising and marketing solutions to real estate industry participants, including real estate
agents, homebuilders and rental property owners, and other local and national advertisers
interested in reaching the Companys consumer audience (before, during or after a move). The
Company also provides software solutions to real estate agents to assist them in managing their
client interactions and architects home plans to consumers considering building a new home. The
Company derives all of its revenue from its North American operations.
The Companys primary consumer web sites are Move.com® and REALTOR.com®, the official site of
the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), which provide new and existing home, apartment, and
corporate housing listings, and are home information resource sites with an emphasis on content
related to mortgage financing, moving and storage, and home and garden activities. The Companys
web sites also include SeniorHousingNet.com, a comprehensive resource for seniors and Moving.com
which connects consumers with moving companies, van lines, truck rental providers and self storage
facilities.
2. Restatement of Financial Statements
The Company is restating its financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2007 in this amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended
September 30, 2007.
In the second quarter of 2007, the Company modified the terms for granting its restricted
stock unit awards, which created a new measurement date. The modification was entered into because
the 2006 grants required a three-year projection of financial performance in a highly competitive
and rapidly changing market and the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board
of Directors wanted to better reflect the current strategy of the Company while adhering to the
original goals of increased and sustained performance. As a result, management should have
assessed the likelihood of achieving the original targets and awarding the restricted stock as
improbable. As such, SFAS 123R required that any previously recognized expense related to the
restricted stock units be reversed and that the Company remeasure the fair value of the grants and
defer any future compensation expense until it was probable that the awards would ultimately vest.
Instead, the awards continued to be accounted for under the assumption that 100% would be vested.
The reported results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 have been revised to
reverse all previously recognized compensation expense related to the restricted stock units.
In the Balance Sheets, the effect on the adjustment on Additional paid-in capital and
Accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2007 was as follows:

3. Basis of Presentation
The Companys unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP)
including those for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP for complete
financial statements. These statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should
be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which was filed with the SEC on March 5,
2007. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for a full year.
4. Significant Accounting Policy
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)
Issue No. 06-03 How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should
Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross Versus Net Presentation) (EITF No. 06-03).
Under EITF No. 06-03, a company must disclose its accounting policy regarding the gross or net
presentation of certain taxes. If taxes included in gross revenues are significant, a company must
disclose the amount of such taxes for each period for which an income statement is presented (i.e.,
both interim and annual periods). Taxes within the scope of EITF No. 06-03 are those that are
imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction. Taxes assessed on an
entitys activities over a period of time, such as gross receipts taxes, are not within the scope
of EITF No. 06-03. The Company continues to report taxes collected from customers on a net
presentation basis after the adoption of EITF No. 06-03.
5. Recent Accounting Development
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). This
standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items
at fair value. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB
Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to
all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. The fair value option established by
SFAS 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified
election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the
fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value
option: (a) may be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such as investments
otherwise accounted for by the equity method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date
occurs); and (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS
159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November
15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of the previous fiscal year provided
that the entity makes that choice in the first 120 days of that fiscal year and also elects to
apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The Company is currently
evaluating whether the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on its financial
conditions, its results of operations or its liquidity.

7. Contract Termination Costs
In anticipation of a potential move of the Companys corporate headquarters, in August 2007,
management entered into a sublease agreement for an interim facility located in Agoura Hills,
California for a term of thirteen months. Subsequent to entering into the lease, management
renegotiated with the current landlord and executed an amendment to the lease for its corporate
headquarters in Westlake Village, California. As a result, the Company will not occupy the new
facility in Agoura Hills. Since the Company will derive no economic value from the sublease, the
Company has recorded an estimated liability in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The estimated liability of $750,000 was recorded and
is included in general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2007. No estimate was made for estimated subtenant rental income due to the unlikelihood that
the Company will be able to sublease the location due to the limited term of the agreement and
general economic conditions in the area.
8. Stock-Based Compensation and Charges
The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 Accounting for Stock-based
Compensation (SFAS No. 123) and EITF No. 96-18 Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are
Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services.
The Company has granted restricted stock awards to members of its Board of Directors as
compensation during the past four years. These shares will vest on the third anniversary of their
issuance. There were 314,950 and 292,200 unvested shares of restricted stock issued to members of
the Companys Board of Directors as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The Company has granted restricted stock awards to its Chief Executive Officer in
consideration for his service in 2003 and 2004. These shares have vested or will vest on the third
anniversary of their issuance. There were 115,740 and 186,662 unvested shares of restricted stock
issued to the Companys Chief Executive Officer as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The intrinsic value of these restricted stock awards was included in the results of operations in
the period in which they were granted. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the
Company granted 232,018 shares of restricted stock to one of its officers as a sign-on bonus.
These shares have a fair value of $1.0 million and were vested fifty percent immediately with the
balance vesting one year from the grant date subject to continued employment with the Company. The
fair value of the first fifty percent vesting was recognized as stock based compensation
immediately with the remaining fifty percent being amortized over one year. The total costs
recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $123,000 and
$670,000, respectively, which is included in the stock based compensation and charges detailed
below.
The Board of Directors awarded performance-based restricted stock units to certain of the
Companys executive officers. The following summarizes the restricted stock unit activity (in
thousands):

Based on the original terms of the awards, the officers were to earn shares of the Companys
stock, based on the attainment of certain performance goals relating to the Companys revenues and
operating income (as defined by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board
of Directors) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. During the three months ended June 30,
2007, the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved
modifications of the performance targets and vesting periods from the original awards, reducing the
original restricted stock units available for vesting at the conclusion of 2008 by 50% for each of
the executives, and revising the target financial performance for 2008 based on current market
conditions and the Companys expected performance. The committee also established financial
performance targets for 2009, which provided the potential for executives to earn the remaining 50%
of the restricted stock units previously granted by attainment of those performance goals.
As a result of the modification, pursuant to SFAS 123R, a new measurement date was
established. The modification was entered into because the 2006 grants required a three-year
projection of financial performance in a highly competitive and rapidly changing market and the
Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors wanted to better
reflect the current strategy of the Company while adhering to the original goals of increased and
sustained performance. As a result, the likelihood of achieving the original targets was
improbable and previously recognized compensation under the award has been reversed to reflect this
assumption. Recognition of compensation for these units will be deferred until management
determines that it is probable that it will achieve the new performance targets. As a result, $6.5
million of stock-based compensation expense previously recognized was reversed for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007. As of September 30, 2007, the fair value of the remaining restricted
stock units granted was $25.2 million.
The Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004)
Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R) using the modified-prospective transition method. Under that
transition method, compensation cost recognized includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based
payments granted prior to January 1, 2006, but not yet vested, based on the grant-date fair value
estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123; and (b) compensation cost for all
share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value
estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Compensation costs are recognized using
a straight-line amortization method over the vesting period. Results for prior periods have not
been restated.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes
option valuation model that uses the ranges of assumptions in the following table. Our computation
of expected volatility is based on a combination of historical and market-based implied volatility.
Due to the unusual volatility of the Companys stock price around the time of the restatement of
its financial statements in 2002 and several historical acquisitions that changed the Companys
risk profile, historical data was more heavily weighted toward the most recent four years of stock
activity. The expected term of options granted was derived by averaging the vesting term with the
contractual term. The risk-free interest rates are based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds for
the periods in which the options were granted.

Because their effects would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented, the above computation
of diluted income (loss) per share excludes preferred stock, stock options and warrants of
63,104,083 and 31,617,156 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007,
respectively, and 30,468,381 and 25,923,132 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006,
respectively.
In the third quarter of 2006, the amounts reported as Dividends on convertible preferred
stock in the Companys Form 10-Q omitted the related accretion of the discount that was derived
from the issuance of the convertible preferred stock. The reported results for that quarter have
been revised to reflect both the accretion and the dividends in arriving at Net income (loss)
applicable to common stockholders. As a result of the revision, additional expense of $296,000
and $888,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, is reflected in
the line Convertible preferred stock dividends and related accretion. As a result of this
change, basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 decreased by $0.01 from $0.01 to $0.00.

10. Segment Information
Segment information is presented in accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This standard is based on a management
approach, which requires segmentation based upon the Companys internal organization and disclosure
of revenue and operating expenses based upon internal accounting methods. The Companys management
evaluates performance and allocates resources based on two segments consisting of Real Estate
Services for those products and services offered to industry professionals trying to reach new
movers and manage their relationships with them and Consumer Media for those products and services
offered to other advertisers who are trying to reach those consumers in the process of a move.
This is consistent with the data that is made available to our management to assess performance and
make decisions. In June 2007, the Company changed the name of its former Move-Related Services
segment to Consumer Media.
The expenses presented below for each of the business segments include an allocation of
certain corporate expenses that are identifiable and benefit those segments and are allocated for
internal management reporting purposes. The unallocated expenses are those corporate overhead
expenses that are not directly attributable to a segment and include: corporate expenses, such as
finance, legal, internal business systems, and human resources; amortization of intangible assets;
and stock-based charges. There is no inter-segment revenue. Assets and liabilities are not fully
allocated to segments for internal reporting purposes.
Summarized information, by segment, as excerpted from internal management reports is as

11. Income Taxes
As a result of historical net operating losses, we have generally not recorded a provision for
income taxes. However, during the year ended December 31, 2006, we recorded certain indefinite
lived intangible assets as a result of the purchase of Moving.com which creates a permanent
difference as the amortization can be recorded for tax purposes but not for book
13
purposes. A tax provision of $42,000 and $122,000 was recorded in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007, respectively, as a result of this permanent difference which cannot be offset
against net operating loss carryforwards due to its indefinite life and an additional $127,000 and
$300,000 tax provision was recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007,
respectively, due to federal alternative minimum taxes incurred as the result of the utilization of
net operating losses against our taxable income for the respective period.
The Company adopted the FASBs Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), effective January 1, 2007. FIN 48
clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and
requires the impact of a tax position to be recognized in the financial statements if that position
is more likely than not to be sustained by the taxing authority. The adoption of FIN 48 did not
have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
As of September 30, 2007, we do not have any accrued interest or penalties related to
uncertain tax positions. The Companys policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to
uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. We do not have any interest or penalties related to
uncertain tax positions in income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2007 and 2006. The tax years 1993-2006 remain open to examination by the major taxing
jurisdictions to which we are subject.
12. Settlement of Disputes and Litigation
On September 7, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement resolving the patent infringement
claims brought against it by Scott C. Harris and Memory Control Enterprise, LLC (MCE) in a
lawsuit described in Note 21, Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings, to our
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2006. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid cash and received a
fully paid up worldwide license to the patents at issue in the case, and the claims against the
Company were dismissed by the plaintiffs with prejudice.
On October 8, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement resolving the claims brought against
it and two of its former officers by certain former shareholders of WyldFyre Technologies, Inc.
(WyldFyre) in a lawsuit described in Note 21, Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings,
to our Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2006. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid $3.9 million in cash
and the parties entered into mutual releases and the claims against the Company were dismissed by
the plaintiffs with prejudice. As a result of the settlement, the Company recorded a litigation
settlement charge of $3.9 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings, as discussed in Note 21, Commitments
and ContingenciesLegal Proceedings, to our Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (Annual Report) and below
in this Note 12. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, and except as disclosed below, the Company is
not a party to any other litigation or administrative proceedings that management believes will
have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, results of operations, financial
condition or cash flows.
On August 2, 2007, ActiveRain Corp. (ActiveRain) sued the Company in the United States
District Court, Central District of California for violation of the California Uniform Trade
Secrets Act, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, promissory and/or equitable estoppel, unfair
competition, violation of the Washington Unfair Business Practices statute and fraud. ActiveRain
alleges that the Company breached a mutual non-disclosure agreement entered into between the
Company and ActiveRain in connection with discussions in early 2007 for the potential acquisition
of ActiveRain by the Company. The discussions were terminated by the Company prior to entering
into a definitive acquisition agreement. ActiveRain seeks to recover monetary damages, including
exemplary damages, attorneys fees and interest, as well as to enjoin the Company from using what
ActiveRain alleges is its confidential information. The Company believes the claims are without
merit and intends to vigorously defend the case.
In December 2005, CIVIX-DDI, LLC (CIVIX) filed suit against NAR, the Company, Hotels.com,
L.P. and Hotels.com GP LLC in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Illinois, Eastern Division. The complaint alleges that the Company and NAR infringe U.S. Patents
6,385,622; 6,408,307; 6,415,291; and 6,473,692 by offering, providing, using and operating
location-based searching services through the REALTOR.com® web site and requests an unspecified
amount of damages (including treble damages for willful infringement and attorneys fees) and an
injunction. Yahoo! Inc. was added as a defendant in the Amended Complaint which was filed by CIVIX
on January 11, 2006. The Company is defending both itself and NAR. On January 26, 2006, the Company
and NAR filed their answer and counterclaims responding to CIVIXs complaint denying that the
Company and NAR infringed on these patents and alleging that these patents are invalid. CIVIX has
replied to the answer and counterclaims filed by the Company and NAR. On May 31, 2006, the case was
consolidated
14
with another action brought by CIVIX against Orbitz, LLC, Yellowpages.com and Travelocity.com, Inc.
Each of the patents in suit has been submitted to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) for
reexamination, and the PTO has granted the requests for reexamination, concluding that there is a
substantial new question of patentability. On September 17, 2007, the court stayed the case
pending completion of reexamination of the patents in suit. The Company is continuing its
evaluation and investigation of the allegations made in the lawsuit and intends to vigorously
defend against them if and when the patents emerge from reexamination and the stay of the case is
lifted. At this time, however, the Company is unable to express an opinion on the outcome of this
case.
On February 28, 2007, Real Estate Alliance, Limited (REAL), in a patent infringement action
against a real estate agent, Diane Sarkisian, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
District of Pennsylvania (the Sarkisian case), REAL moved to certify as a class of defendants,
among others, customers of the Company who had purchased enhanced listings from the Company. The
Company filed an Amicus Curiae brief (friend of the court brief) opposing REALs motion, however on
motion by REAL, the court struck that brief. On September 24, 2007, the court in the Sarkisian
case denied REALs motion to certify the class of defendants. On April 3, 2007, the Company filed
a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California seeking a declaratory
judgment that the Company does not infringe U.S. Patent Nos. 4,870,576 and 5,032,989 (the REAL
patents) and that the REAL patents are invalid and/or unenforceable (the California Action).
The California Action was brought against REAL, and its licensing agent Equias Technology
Development, LLC (Equias) and Equiass principal, Scott Tatro (Tatro). The California Action
also includes claims by the Company against the defendants for several business torts, such as
interference with contractual relations and prospective economic advantage and unfair competition
under California common law and statutory law. On May 14, 2007, Defendants in the California
Action moved to have the California case dismissed or transferred to Pennsylvania, and on June 27,
2007, the court denied defendants motion as to defendants REAL and Equias, but granted dismissal
of the claims against Tatro without prejudice. On August 8, 2007, REAL and Equias denied the
Companys allegations, and REAL asserted counterclaims against the Company asserting infringement
of the REAL patents, seeking compensatory damages, punitive damages, treble damages, costs,
expenses, reasonable attorneys fees and pre- and post-judgment interest. The Company has denied
REALs allegations. The Company intends to vigorously prosecute the California Action and defend
against REALs allegations. At this time, however, the Company is unable to express an opinion on
the outcome of this case.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Form 10-Q and the following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This Act provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about
themselves so long as they identify these statements as forward-looking and provide meaningful
cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ from
the projected results. All statements other than statements of historical fact that we make in this
Form 10-Q are forward-looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects
and our future consolidated results of operations or financial position are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations and are inherently
uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from our expectations. Factors that could
cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q, as well as those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2006, and in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or
SEC. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2006.
Our Business
We have created an online service that enables consumers to find real estate listings
and other content related to residential real estate, moving and relocation. Our web sites
collectively have become the leading consumer destination on the Internet for home and real
estate-related information based on the number of visitors, time spent on our web sites and number
of property listings. We generate most of our revenue from selling advertising and marketing
solutions to both real estate industry participants, including real estate agents, homebuilders,
and rental property owners, and other local and national advertisers interested in reaching our
consumer audience before, during or after a move. We also provide software solutions to real
estate agents to assist them in managing their client interactions and architects home plans to
consumers considering building a new home. We derive all of our revenues from our North American
operations.
Our primary consumer web sites are Move.com and REALTOR.com®, the official site of the
National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), which provide new and existing home, apartment, and
corporate housing listings, and are home information resource sites with an emphasis on content
related to mortgage financing, moving and storage, and home and garden activities. Our web sites
also include SeniorHousingNet.com, a comprehensive resource for seniors and Moving.com which
connects consumers with moving companies, van lines, truck rental providers and self storage
facilities.
15
Basis of Presentation
Our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the historical results
of Move, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.
Business Trends and Conditions
In recent years, our business has been, and we expect will continue to be, influenced by a
number of macroeconomic, industry-wide and product-specific trends and conditions:
|
|
|
Market and economic conditions. In recent years, the U.S. economy has
experienced low interest rates, and volatility in the equities
markets. Through 2005, housing starts remained strong, while the
supply of apartment housing generally exceeded demand. For a number
of years prior to 2006, owning a home became much more attainable for
the average consumer due to the availability of flexible mortgage
options, which required minimal down payments and provided low
interest rates. During this period, home builders spent less on
advertising, given the strong demand for new houses, and homeowners
who were looking to sell a home only had to list it at a reasonable
price in most areas of the U.S. to sell in 60 days or less.
Conversely, demand for rental units declined and apartment owners did
not spend as much money on advertising, as they have sought to achieve
cost savings during the difficult market for rentals. These trends
had an impact on our ability to grow our business. |
|
|
|
|
Beginning in the second half of 2005, the market dynamics appeared to
reverse. Interest rates rose and mortgage options began to decline.
The housing market became saturated with new home inventory in many
large metropolitan markets and the available inventory of resale homes
began to climb as demand softened. The impact of the rise in interest
rates caused demand for homes to decline into 2006 and the rental
market improved. The change in economic factors created uncertainty
on job creation and made it difficult to gauge whether these trends
would continue. While interest rates appeared to stabilize as we
entered 2007, housing starts and sales of existing homes slowed
considerably in 2006 and have continued to slow in 2007. The
tightened mortgage market in mid-2007 has also negatively impacted the
sale of new and resale homes. |
|
|
|
|
During the difficult period for rentals prior to 2006, we saw many
rental owners reduce their overall advertising spending and shift
their dollars from conventional offline channels, such as newspapers
and real estate guides, to the Internet. Because of this trend, we
believed a slowdown in the sale of new and existing homes could lead
to increased spending on the Internet by home builders, real estate
agents and brokers. This trend was confirmed in 2006 and in the first
half of 2007. We saw many brokers move their spending online and many
home builders increased their marketing spend to move existing
inventory, even as they slowed their production and our business grew
as a result. However, as the slow market continued into 2007, the
decline in sales of homes has reduced the overall advertising spend.
While the advertising spend by many of the large home builders, agents
and brokers appears strong, some of the medium and smaller businesses
may have to reduce expenses to remain in business and has caused our
growth rate to decline. |
|
|
|
|
Investment Strategy: We have made substantial investments in our
business in recent years in order to improve our ability to bring
consumers and advertisers together. As a result of our greater
understanding of both consumer and customer needs, we have concluded
that we need to demonstrate strong capabilities in four core areas:
size and quality of consumer audience; depth and breadth of content;
enduring industry relationships; and scaleable business models. |
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is
based upon our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to revenue recognition, uncollectible receivables, intangible and other long-lived assets
and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine
months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to those policies disclosed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN
48), which became effective for us beginning January 1, 2007. FIN 48 addresses the determination
of how tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the
financial statements. Under FIN 48, we must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain
16
tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on
examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax
benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the
largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.
The impact of our reassessment of our tax positions in accordance with FIN 48 did not have a
material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. For additional
information regarding the adoption of FIN 48, see Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
Recent Accounting Developments
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment
of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159
are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading
securities. The fair value option established by SFAS 159 permits all entities to choose to
measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report
unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings
at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by
instrument, with a few exceptions, such as investments otherwise accounted for by the equity
method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and (c) is applied only to entire
instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an
entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of
the beginning of the previous fiscal year provided that the entity makes that choice in the first
120 days of that fiscal year and also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of this statement will have a
material effect on our financial conditions, our results of operations or our liquidity.
Legal Contingencies
We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings, as discussed in Note 21,
Commitments and ContingenciesLegal Proceedings, to our Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in Item 8 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and in
Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q. Because of the uncertainties related
to both the amount and range of loss in connection with legal proceedings, on the remaining pending
litigation, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of the liability that could result from
unfavorable outcomes. As additional information becomes available, we will assess the potential
liability related to our pending litigation and determine whether reasonable estimates of the
liability can be made. Unfavorable outcomes or significant estimates of our potential liability
could materially impact our results of operations and financial position.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006
Revenue
Revenue remained relatively stable at $75.6 million for the three months ended September
30, 2007 compared to $75.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. An increase of
$2.5 million in the Real Estate Services segment was offset by a decrease of $2.6 million in the
Consumer Media segment. These changes are explained in the segment information below.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue decreased approximately $1.0 million, or 6%, to $16.0 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2007 from $17.0 million for the three months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in material and shipping costs of $1.3 million
primarily due to lower book distribution costs in our Welcome Wagon® business and the elimination
of magazines in our New Homes business and other cost reductions of $0.2 million. This decrease
was partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in hosting and imaging costs.
Gross profit percentage increased to 79% for the three months ended September 30, 2007
compared to 78% for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase is primarily due to an
increase in margins in our Welcome Wagon® business resulting from the elimination of selected books
in markets with low or negative profit margins.
17
Operating Expenses
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased approximately $0.4 million,
or 1%, to $28.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, from $28.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in online
marketing costs.
Product and web site development. Product and web site development expenses remained
relatively stable, increasing approximately $0.3 million, or 4%, to $8.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, from $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased approximately
$2.1 million, or 10%, to $23.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, from
$21.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to a
$2.2 million increase in personnel related costs, $1.2 million of which represented one-time
severance costs for a key executive, a $0.7 million charge taken in the three months ended
September 30, 2007 for lease termination costs, a $0.7 million increase in consulting costs related
to internal business system support, a $0.4 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation
due to additional stock option grants and restricted stock amortization, and other cost increases
of $0.4 million. These increases were partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in bad debt
expense and a $1.3 million reduction in consulting expenses resulting from the completion of the
relocation of our data center in fiscal 2006.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $0.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Litigation settlement. We recorded a litigation settlement charge of $3.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2007. There was no litigation settlement charge in the three
months ended September 30, 2006. The settlement is discussed in Note 11, Settlement of Disputes
and Litigation to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this Form
10-Q.

Stock-based compensation and charges increased for the three months ended September 30,
2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006 primarily due to additional stock option
grants and restricted stock amortization.
Interest Income, Net
Interest income, net, increased $0.7 million to $2.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006,
primarily due to increases in short-term investment balances and higher interest yields on those
balances.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net, increased $0.6 million to $0.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006,
primarily due to $0.6 million in income recognized from the revaluation of an embedded derivative
liability resulting from the sale of convertible preferred stock in December 2005.
Income Taxes
As a result of historical net operating losses, we have generally not recorded a
provision for income taxes. A $169,000 tax provision was recorded for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 due to federal alternative minimum taxes incurred as the result of the
utilization of net operating losses against our taxable income for the period.
As of December 31, 2006, we had $942.0 million of net operating loss carryforwards for federal
and foreign income tax purposes, which begin to expire in 2008. We have provided a full valuation
allowance on our deferred tax assets, consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards, due
to the likelihood that we may not generate sufficient taxable income during
18
the carry-forward period to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards. A deferred tax liability
has been established for the difference between tax amortization of certain indefinite lived
intangible assets for financial statement purposes and for tax purposes.
Segment Information
Segment information is presented in accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This standard is based on a management
approach, which requires segmentation based upon the Companys internal organization and disclosure
of revenue and operating expenses based upon internal accounting methods. The Companys management
evaluates performance and allocates resources based on two segments consisting of Real Estate
Services for those products and services offered to industry professionals trying to reach new
movers and manage their relationships with them and Consumer Media for those products and services
offered to other advertisers who are trying to reach those consumers in the process of a move.
This is consistent with the data that is made available to our management to assess performance and
make decisions. In June 2007, we changed the name of our former Move-Related Services segment to
Consumer Media.
The expenses presented below for each of the business segments include an allocation of
certain corporate expenses that are identifiable and benefit those segments and are allocated for
internal management reporting purposes. The unallocated expenses are those corporate overhead
expenses that are not directly attributable to a segment and include: corporate expenses, such as
finance, legal, internal business systems, and human resources; amortization of intangible assets;
and stock-based charges. There is no inter-segment revenue. Assets and liabilities are not fully
allocated to segments for internal reporting purposes.
Summarized information by segment, as excerpted from internal management reports, is as

Real Estate Services
Real Estate Services consists of products and services that promote and connect real estate
professionals to consumers through our REALTOR.com®, New Homes and Rentals on Move.com and
SeniorHousingNet.com web sites, in addition to our customer relationship management applications
for REALTORS® offered through our Top Producer® business. During the second quarter of 2006, we
launched Move.com as a real estate listing and move-related search site. Shortly after its launch,
the Move.com replaced the HomeBuilder.com® and Rentnet.com web sites and we began promoting those
under the Move® brand. Our revenue is derived from a variety of advertising and software services,
including enhanced listings, company and property display advertising, customer relationship
management applications and web site sales which we sell to those businesses interested in reaching
our targeted audience or those professionals interested in being more effective in managing their
contact with consumers.
Real Estate Services revenue increased $2.5 million, or 5%, to $55.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $53.4 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. The revenue increase was primarily generated by an increase in our REALTOR.com®
business driven by increased customer count and higher average spending per customer on our
Enhanced Listing Product. Additionally, there was an increase in our Top Producer® product
offerings as we launched the Top Website product as well as continued growth in our subscriber base
for our online software. These increases were partially offset by decreased revenue from our
Rentals business. Real Estate Services revenue represented approximately 74% of total revenue for
the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to 71% of total revenue for the
19
three months ended September 30, 2006.
Real Estate Services expenses increased $1.7 million, or 4%, to $41.0 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $39.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in consulting costs
resulting from increased product development efforts and other cost increases of $0.4 million.
Real Estate Services generated operating income of $14.9 million and $14.1 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, due to factors outlined above. We
will continue to pursue revenue growth through new product offerings and new market opportunities.
Consumer Media
Consumer Media, formerly Move-Related Services, consists of advertising products and lead
generation tools including display, test-link and rich advertising positions, directory products,
price quote tools and content sponsorships on Move.com, Moving.com, and other related sites which
we sell to those businesses interested in reaching our targeted audience. In addition, it includes
our Welcome Wagon® new-mover direct mail advertising products and the sale of new home plans and
related magazines through our Homeplans business.
Consumer Media revenue decreased $2.6 million, or 12%, to $19.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $22.3 million for the three months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease was primarily generated by a decline in our online advertising revenue, a
decrease in the Welcome Wagon® business primarily due to lower book distribution due to the general
decline in the number of movers as well as the elimination of selected books in markets with low or
negative profit margins, and a decline in our Homeplans business revenues. Consumer Media revenue
represented 26% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 29% of
total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Consumer Media expenses decreased $3.0 million, or 13%, to $20.2 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease was primarily due a $1.2 million decrease in sales and marketing costs as a
direct result of reduced revenues, a $1.0 million decrease in bad debt expense, and a $0.9 million
decrease in material and shipping costs related to lower distribution in our Welcome Wagon®
business. There decreases were offset by various operating cost increases of $0.1 million.
Consumer Media generated an operating loss of $0.6 million and $0.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, primarily due to factors outlined
above.
Unallocated
Unallocated expenses increased $6.5 million, or 50%, to $19.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $13.0 million for the three months ended September 30,
2006. The increase was primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in litigation settlements, an
increase in personnel related costs of $1.9 million, $1.5 million of which represented one-time
severance costs for key executives, a $0.7 million charge taken in the three months ended September
30, 2007 for lease termination costs, increased legal fees of $0.4 million and other costs
increases of $0.9 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in
consulting costs primarily resulting from the completion of the relocation of our data center in
fiscal 2006.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006
Revenue increased approximately $1.7 million, or 1%, to $220.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 from $218.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The increase in revenue was due to increases of $9.5 million in the Real Estate Services segment
partially offset by a $7.8 million decline in the Consumer Media Services segment. These changes by
segment are explained in the segment information below.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue decreased approximately $3.8 million, or 8%, to $46.0 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, from $49.8 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in material and shipping costs of $3.7 million
primarily due to lower book distribution costs in our Welcome Wagon® business and the elimination
of magazines in our New Homes business and decreases in personnel related costs of $0.9 million,
partially offset by increases of $0.8 million in hosting and imaging costs.
20
Gross profit percentage increased to 79% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
compared to 77% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase is primarily due to an
increase in margins in our Welcome Wagon® business resulting from the elimination of selected books
in markets with low or negative profit margins.
Operating Expenses
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased approximately $1.3 million,
or 2%, to $83.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $82.6 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily due to an increase in portal fees
of $1.6 million, increased consulting costs of $0.6 million and other increases of $0.2 million,
partially offset by decreases in online marketing costs of $1.1 million.
Product and web site development. Product and web site development expenses increased
approximately $1.2 million, or 5%, to $26.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
from $25.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 primarily due to an increase of
$2.3 million in consulting costs to improve our product offerings in our REALTOR.com®, Top
Producer®, and Welcome Wagon® businesses and other increases of $0.6 million, partially offset by a
$1.7 million decrease in personnel related costs.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased approximately
$0.2 million, less than 1%, to $61.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from
$61.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a
$3.1 million reduction in consulting costs resulting from the completion of the relocation of our
data center in fiscal 2006 and other consulting cost reductions of $0.9 million. This decrease was
partially offset by an increase in insurance costs as a result of a one-time refund of $1.2 million
received in the nine months ending September 30, 2006 and increases in personnel related costs of
$2.4 million, $1.2 million of which represented one-time severance costs for a key executive.
There was an increase of $0.2 million in non-cash stock-based compensation during the nine months
ended September 30, 2007 due to one-time charges for stock options and restricted stock issued to a
new executive officer that were immediately vested as well as additional stock option grants
partially offset by a $4.0 million reversal of previously recognized expense associated with
restricted stock units.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets decreased
approximately $0.3 million to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from
$1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in amortization was
primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in 2006.
Litigation settlement. We recorded a litigation settlement charge of $3.9 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007. There was no litigation settlement charge in the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. The settlement is discussed in Note 11, Settlement of Disputes and
Litigation to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this Form
10-Q.

Interest income, net, increased $2.1 million to $7.4 million for the nine months ended

primarily due to increases in short-term investment balances and higher interest yields on those

Income Taxes
As a result of historical net operating losses, we have generally not recorded a

September 30, 2007 primarily due to federal alternative minimum taxes incurred as the result of the

Real Estate Services
Real Estate Services revenue increased $9.5 million, or 6%, to $164.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $154.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006. The revenue increase was primarily generated by an increase in our REALTOR.com® business
driven by increased customer count and higher average spending per customer on our Enhanced Listing
Product, increased featured CMA revenue and increased Featured Home revenue, offset by decreases in
website and virtual tour product revenue. Additionally, there was an increase in our Top Producer®
product offerings as we launched the Top Website product as well as continued growth in our
subscriber base for our online software. These increases were partially offset by decreases in our
New Homes and Rentals businesses. Real Estate Services revenue represented approximately 75% of
total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 71% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006.
Real Estate Services expenses increased $2.1 million, or 2%, to $119.8 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $117.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. The increase was due to a $3.6 million increase in consulting costs related
primarily to increased product development efforts and other cost increases of $0.2 million. These
increases were partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in personnel related costs primarily in
product development and a $0.6 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation primarily due
to a $1.3 million reversal of previously recognized expense associated with restricted stock units
partially offset by additional stock option grants.
Real Estate Services generated operating income of $44.4 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007, compared to operating income of $37.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006, primarily due to the increased revenue discussed above. We will continue to
pursue revenue growth through new product offerings and new market opportunities.
22
Consumer Media
Consumer Media revenue decreased $7.8 million, or 12%, to $56.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007, compared to $63.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The decrease was primarily generated by a decline in our online advertising revenue, a decrease in
the Welcome Wagon® business primarily due to lower book distribution due to the general decline in
the number of movers as well as the elimination of selected books in markets with low or negative
profit margins, and a decline in our Homeplans business revenues. Consumer Media revenue
represented approximately 25% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
compared to 29% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Consumer Media expenses decreased $5.0 million, or 8%, to $61.0 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $66.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in material and shipping costs of $2.9 million
related to lower distribution in our Welcome Wagon® business, a decrease of $2.2 million in
personnel related costs in sales and marketing as a direct result of reduced revenues, a $1.0
million decrease in bad debt expense and other cost decreases of $0.3 million, partially offset by
a $1.4 million increase in product development.
Consumer Media generated an operating loss of $5.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 compared to an operating loss of $2.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 primarily due to factors outlined above.
Unallocated
Unallocated expenses increased $5.2 million, or 14%, to $42.4 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $37.2 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006. The increase was primarily due to an increase in litigation settlement costs of $3.9 million,
an increase in other personnel related costs of $2.9 million, $1.5 million of which represented
one-time severance costs for key executives, a $0.7 million charge taken in the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 for lease termination costs, an increase in insurance costs as a result of a
one-time refund of $1.2 million received in the nine months ending September 30, 2006, along with
other cost increases of $1.0 million. There was also an increase of $0.6 million in expense for non-cash
stock-based compensation during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 due to one-time charges
for stock options and restricted stock issued to a new executive officer that were immediately
vested as well as additional stock option grants partially offset by a $2.5 million reversal of
previously recognized expense associated with restricted stock units. These increases were
partially offset by a decrease of $3.1 million in consulting costs resulting from the completion of
the relocation of our data center in fiscal 2006 and other consulting cost reductions of $2.0
million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities of $20.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 was attributable to the net income from operations of $5.0 million, plus
non-cash expenses including depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, provision for doubtful
accounts, gain on sales of property and equipment, stock-based compensation and charges, change in
market value of embedded derivative liability and other non-cash items, aggregating to $19.8
million offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $4.2 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $13.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was attributable to the net income from operations of $3.6 million, plus
non-cash expenses including depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, provision for doubtful
accounts, stock-based compensation and charges and other non-cash items, aggregating to $21.2
million offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $11.7 million. This was
negatively impacted in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 by the $9.5 million in payments for
the settlement of litigation and former officers legal expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities of $17.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to net purchases of short-term investments of $22.1
million, capital expenditures of $16.0 million and purchases of intangible assets of $0.6 million,
offset by proceeds from the sale of marketable equity securities of $15.7 million, proceeds from
the surrender of a life insurance policy of $5.2 million and proceeds from sales of property and
equipment of $0.3 million. Net cash used in investing activities of $17.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Moving.com of $9.6
million and capital expenditures of $8.7 million, offset by $1.2 million in net maturities of
short-term investments.
Net cash provided by financing activities of $2.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 was attributable to proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $2.8 million
and reductions in restricted cash of $1.0 million offset by payments on capital lease obligations
of $1.4 million. Net cash provided by financing activities of $3.9 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 was attributable to proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $5.2
million and reductions in restricted cash of $0.8 million offset by payments on capital lease
obligations of $2.1 million.
23
We have generated positive operating cash flows in each of the last two years. We have
no material financial commitments other than those under capital and operating lease agreements,
distribution and marketing agreements, and our operating agreement with the NAR. Our existing cash
and short-term investments, and any cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our
working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other obligations for the foreseeable
future.
On September 13, 2007, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program. The
program authorizes, in one or more transactions taking place during the 12 month period following
public disclosure of the program on September 17, 2007, the repurchase of our outstanding common
stock utilizing surplus cash in the amount of up to $50 million. Under the program, we can purchase
shares of common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and
amount of repurchase transactions under this program will depend upon market conditions, corporate
considerations and regulatory requirements. Shares repurchased under the program shall be retired
to constitute authorized but unissued shares of our common stock.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our
investment portfolio. We have not used derivative financial instruments in our investment
portfolio. We invest our excess cash in money-market funds, auction rate securities, debt
instruments of high quality corporate issuers and debt instruments of the U.S. Government and its
agencies, and, by policy, this limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer.
Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carries a
degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely
impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income
than expected if interest rates fall.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or
submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period
covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings, as discussed in Note 21,
Commitments and Contingencies- Legal Proceedings, to our Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in Item 8 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (Annual
Report) and in Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q. As of the date of this
Form 10-Q and except as disclosed in Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual
Report and in Note 13 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form
10-Q, the Company is not a party to any other litigation or administrative proceedings that
management believes will have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, results of
operations, financial condition or cash flows, and there have been no material developments in the
litigation or administrative proceedings described in those notes.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should consider carefully the risk factors below, and those presented in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and other information included or incorporated
by reference in this Form 10-Q. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones
we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or
24
that we deem to be currently immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the
stated risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be
materially adversely affected.
Risks Related to our Business
The emergence of competitors for our services may adversely impact our business.
Our existing and potential competitors include web sites offering real estate related content
and services as well as general purpose online services, and traditional media such as newspapers,
magazines and television that may compete for advertising dollars. The real estate search services
market in which our Real Estate Services division operates is becoming increasingly competitive. A
number of competitors have emerged, including RealEstate.com (a division of InterActive Corp),
HouseValues.com, AgentConnect.com (a division of Next Phase Media, Inc.), HomeGain (a division of
Classified Ventures, LLC), ApartmentGuide.com, Rent.com, ForRent.com, Apartments.com,
NewHomeGuide.com, NewHomeSource.com and more recently Google, Zillow, Trulia and Propsmart as well
as general interest consumer web sites that offer home, moving and finance content, including
ServiceMagic, Inc. (a division of InterActive Corp) and Gigamoves (a division of eBay).
The barriers to entry for web-based services and businesses are low. In addition, parties with
whom we have listing and marketing agreements could choose to develop their own Internet strategies
or competing real estate web sites. Many of our existing and potential competitors have longer
operating histories in the Internet market, greater name recognition, larger consumer bases and
significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. The rapid pace of
technological change constantly creates opportunities for existing and new competitors and it can
quickly render our technologies less valuable. Developments in the real estate search services
market may also encourage additional competitors to enter that market. See We may not be able to
continue to obtain more listings from Multiple Listing Services and real estate brokers than other
web site operators below.
We cannot predict how, if at all, our competitors may respond to our initiatives. We also
cannot provide assurance that our new offerings will be able to compete successfully against these
competitors or new competitors that enter our markets.
We may not be able to continue to obtain more listings from Multiple Listing Services and real
estate brokers than other web site operators.
We believe that the success of REALTOR.com® depends in large part on displaying a larger and
more current listing of existing homes for sale than other web sites. We obtain these listings
through agreements with MLSs that have fixed terms, typically 12 to 36 months. At the end of the
term of each agreement, the MLS could choose not to renew their agreement with us. There are no
assurances the MLSs will continue to renew their agreements to provide listing data to us. If they
choose not to renew their relationship with us, then REALTOR.com® could become less attractive to
consumers and thus, less attractive to our advertising customers. Internet Data Exchange (IDX)
technology has made it possible for other real estate web site operators to display MLS or
cooperating brokers listings on their web sites. NAR has adopted guidelines for MLSs that allow
a broker to prevent MLSs from providing such brokers listing data to other brokers web sites.
These guidelines do not apply to REALTOR.com®. In a civil antitrust lawsuit brought against NAR in
2005, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) challenged this policy by alleging that it is
in violation of federal antitrust laws. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of this
antitrust case, or independent initiatives by large brokers or others, could make it easier for
other web sites to aggregate listing data for display over the Internet in a manner comparable to
REALTOR.com®. This could impact how consumers and customers value our content and product
offerings on the REALTOR.com® web site.
In the first quarter of 2007, Realogy Corporation, the owner of the largest brokerage in the
country, NRT Incorporated, and franchisor of Coldwell Banker®, Century 21®, ERA® and Sothebys
International® announced marketing agreements to have all of their real estate listings uploaded to
Google and Trulia search engines. In addition, a small number of MLSs have also agreed to put
their listings on Google and other prominent websites. We would expect this trend will continue
and that more of our competitors will be able to obtain real estate listings that were previously
only available to us. This trend could make our web sites less attractive and less unique than
they have been in the past.
