Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
−Removed: The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of October 1, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset below its carrying value.
+Added: The Company assesses goodwill on its one reporting unit and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of October 1, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset below its carrying value.
When the Company elects to perform a qualitative assessment and concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, no further assessment of that reporting unit’s goodwill is necessary;
otherwise, a quantitative assessment is performed and the fair value of the reporting unit is determined.
−Removed: If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment equal to the excess is recorded.
−Removed: For the Company's annual goodwill test at October 1, 2019, a qualitative assessment of the MTCH, ANGI, Vimeo, Mosaic Group (included in the Applications segment), College Humor Media, Bluecrew and Nursefly reporting units' goodwill was performed because the Company concluded it was more likely than not that the fair value of these reporting units was in excess of their respective carrying values.

−Removed: The fair value of the Company's reporting units (except for MTCH and ANGI described above) is determined using both an income approach based on discounted cash flows ("DCF") and a market approach when it tests goodwill for impairment, either on an interim basis or annual basis as of October 1 each year.
−Removed: The Company uses the same approach in determining the fair value of its businesses in connection with its non-public subsidiary denominated stock-based compensation plans, which can be a significant factor in the decision to apply the qualitative assessment rather than a quantitative test.
−Removed: 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.
−Removed: The expected cash flows used in the DCF analyses are based on the Company's most recent forecast and budget and, for years beyond the budget, the Company's estimates, which are based, in part, on forecasted growth rates.
−Removed: The discount rates used in the DCF analyses are intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows of the respective reporting units.
−Removed: Assumptions used in the DCF analyses, including the discount rate, are assessed based on each reporting unit's current results and forecasted future performance, as well as macroeconomic and industry specific factors.
−Removed: The discount rates used in the quantitative test for determining the fair value of the Company's reporting units was 12.5 % in 2019 and ranged from 12.5 % to 15 % in 2018 .
−Removed: Determining fair value using a market approach considers multiples of financial metrics based on both acquisitions and trading multiples of a selected peer gr oup of companies.
−Removed: From the comparable companies, a representative market multiple is determined which is applied to financial metrics to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit.
−Removed: To determine a peer group of companies for our respective reporting units, we considered companies relevant in terms of consumer use, monetization model, margin and growth characteristics, and brand strength operating in their respective sectors.
+Added: If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.
+Added: As a result of the Separation, the Company had a negative carrying value for the Company’s annual goodwill test at October 1, 2020.
+Added: Additionally, an impairment test of goodwill was not necessary because there were no factors identified that would indicate an impairment loss.

+Added: The Company foregoes a qualitative assessment and tests goodwill for impairment when it concludes that it is more likely than not that there may be an impairment.
+Added: If needed, the annual or interim quantitative test of the recovery of goodwill involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill.
+Added: If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired.
+Added: If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.
While the Company has the option to qualitatively assess whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of its indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying values, the Company’s policy is to determine the fair value of each of its indefinite-lived intangible assets annually as of October 1, in part, because the level of effort required to perform the quantitative and qualitative assessments is essentially equivalent.
−Removed: The Company determines the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets using an avoided royalty DCF valuation analysis.
+Added: The Company determines the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using an avoided royalty discounted cash flow (“DCF”) valuation analysis.

+Added: 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
+Added: Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company
+Added: In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No.
+Added: 2020-06, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity.
+Added: Among other changes, ASU 2020-06 removes from U.S.
+Added: GAAP the liability and equity separation model for convertible instruments with a cash conversion feature, and as a result, after adoption, entities will no longer separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature for such debt.
+Added: Similarly, the discount resulting from the embedded conversion feature will no longer be amortized into income as interest expense over the life of the instrument.
+Added: Instead, entities will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt unless (1) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or (2) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium.
+Added: Among other potential impacts, this change is expected to reduce reported interest expense, increase reported net income, and result in a reclassification of certain conversion feature balance sheet amounts from stockholders’ equity to liabilities as it relates to the Company’s exchangeable senior notes.
+Added: Additionally, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method to calculate the impact of convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share, which will result in increased dilutive securities as the assumption of cash settlement of the notes will not be available for the purpose of calculating earnings per share.
+Added: The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and can be adopted on either a fully retrospective or modified retrospective basis.
+Added: The Company anticipates adopting ASU No.
+Added: 2020-06 as of January 1, 2021 on a fully retrospective basis.
+Added: For the year ended December 31, 2020 after adoption of ASU No.
+Added: 2020-16, we expect interest expense will decrease by approximately $ 44 million and the income tax provision will increase approximately $ 10 million resulting in an increase in net earnings from continuing operations of approximately $ 34 million.
+Added: Basic earnings per share from continuing operations would increase approximately $ 0.16 and dilutive earnings per share from continuing operations would increase approximately $ 0.09 with an increase of weighted average dilutive shares outstanding of approximately 14 million shares.
+Added: As of December 31, 2020 after adoption of ASU No.
+Added: 2020-06, we expect long-term debt, net to increase approximately $ 300 million, with a similar reduction in additional paid-in capital.
