Who We Are
PART I
OVERVIEW
Angi Inc. connects quality home service professionals with consumers across more than 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling homes
to cleaning and landscaping. During the year ended December 31, 2022, over 220,000 domestic service professionals actively sought consumer leads,
completed jobs or advertised work through Angi Inc. platforms. Additionally, consumers turned to at least one of our businesses to find a service
professional for approximately 29 million projects during the year ended December 31, 2022.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, our segment presentation was changed to reflect out four operating segments, which now include: (i) Ads and Leads, (ii)
Services, (iii) Roofing, and (iv) International (includes Europe and Canada), and the various businesses within those segments operate under multiple
brands, including Angi, HomeAdvisor, Handy, Total Home Roofing, Angi Roofing, MyBuilder, and Travaux.com. Our financial information for prior
periods has been recast to conform to the current period presentation.
Angi is a public company controlled by IAC Inc. (formerly known as IAC/InterActiveCorp (“IAC”)). As of December 31, 2022, IAC’s economic and
voting interest in Angi were 84.1% and 98.1%, respectively.
As used herein, “Angi,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms refer to Angi Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires
otherwise).
History
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware as ANGI Homeservices Inc. in 2017 in connection with the combination of IAC’s HomeAdvisor
business and Angie’s List, Inc. (the “Combination”), which was completed in September 2017.
In 2018, we acquired Handy Technologies, Inc., a leading platform in the United States for connecting consumers looking for household services with
top-quality, pre-screened independent service professionals.
In March 2021, we changed our name to Angi Inc. in connection with an update to one of our leading websites and brands (Angie’s List) to Angi and
the concentration of our marketing investment in the Angi brand in order to focus marketing, sales, and branding efforts on a single brand.
DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESSES
Our Domestic Businesses
In the United States, the Company, through several differentiated experiences, provides consumers with tools and resources to help them find local,
pre-screened and customer-rated service professionals, matching consumers with independently established home services professionals engaged in a trade,
occupation and/or businesses that customarily provides such services and provides consumers with tools to communicate with service professionals and
pay for related services:
•
•
•
an Ads and Leads experience where service professionals pay for connections to consumers;
a Services experience where consumers make payment through the Angi platform for a specific job and the Angi platform assigns that
job to a service professional who completes it and receives a portion of the job fee; and
a Roofing business that provides roof replacement and repair services directly to consumers.
Ads and Leads Overview
This business connects consumers with service professionals for local services through our nationwide online directory of service professionals across
more than 500 service categories, as well as provides consumers with valuable tools, services and content (including verified reviews of local service
professionals), to help them research, shop and hire for local services. Consumers can access our nationwide online directory and related basic tools and
services free of charge upon registration, as well as by way of purchased membership packages. Our Ads business also sells term-based website and mobile
and digital magazine advertising to service professionals, as well as provides them with quoting, invoicing, and payment services. Our Leads digital
marketplace service connects consumers with service professionals nationwide for home repair, maintenance, and improvement projects. Our Leads
business provides consumers with tools and resources to help them find local, pre-screened and customer-rated service professionals, as well as instantly
book appointments online, connect with service professionals
4
Table of Contents
instantly by telephone, and access several home services-related resources, such as cost guides for different home services projects.
Consumer Services
Consumers can search for a service professional in our nationwide online directory and/or be matched with a service professional through our digital
marketplace and certain third-party affiliate platforms. They also have access to related basic tools and services, ratings, reviews, and certain promotions.
This includes consumers access to Angi’s online True Cost Guide, which provides project cost information for more than 400 project types nationwide, as
well as a library of home services-related content consisting primarily of articles about home improvement, repair and maintenance, tools to assist
consumers with the research, planning and management of their projects and general advice for working with service professionals.
Matches are made by way of our proprietary algorithm, based on several factors (including the type of services desired, location and the number of
service professionals available to fulfill the request). Depending on the nature of the service request and the path through which it was submitted,
consumers are generally matched with service professionals from the Leads digital marketplace, a Services service professional or a combination of Ads
and Leads service professionals (as and if available for the given service request). In all cases, service professionals may contact consumers with whom
they have been matched with directly and consumers can generally review profiles, ratings and reviews of presented service professionals and select the
service professional whom they believe best meets their specific needs. Consumers are under no obligation to work with any service professional(s)
referred by or found through any Angi branded or third-party affiliate platform. Consumers are responsible for booking the service and for paying the
service professional directly, which can be done by consumers independently.
Consumers can rate Angi service professionals listed in our nationwide directory on a one- to five- star rating scale based on a variety of criteria,
including overall experience, availability, price, quality, responsiveness, punctuality and professionalism and other criteria, depending on the type of service
provided. Ratings on each applicable criterion are weighted across all reviews submitted for the service professional to produce such professional’s overall
rating on Angi. Consumers can also provide a detailed description of their experiences with service providers. Ratings and reviews cannot be submitted
anonymously, and there are processes in place to prevent service professionals from reporting on themselves or their competitors, as well as to detect
fraudulent or otherwise problematic reviews.
Service Professional Services
Our Ads and Leads business sells term-based website, mobile, and magazine advertising to certified service professionals, as well as provides them
with a variety of services and tools, including quoting, invoicing, and payment services. In order to become a certified service professional in the Angi
network, service professionals must satisfy certain criteria. Generally, service professionals with an average consumer rating below a “3” are not eligible
for certification. In addition to retaining the requisite member rating, service professionals must validate their home services experiences and the owners or
principals of businesses affiliated with service professionals must pass certain criminal background checks and attest to applicable state and local licensure
requirements.
Once eligibility criteria are satisfied, service professionals become certified and can purchase term-based advertising contracts and be matched with
consumers. If a certified service professional fails to meet any eligibility criteria during the applicable contract term, refuses to participate in our complaint
resolution process, and/or engages in what we determine to be prohibited behavior through any Angi platform, existing advertising and exclusive
promotions will be suspended, and the related advertising contract will be subject to termination.
Certified service professionals rotate among the first service professionals listed in our nationwide online directory search results for an applicable
category (together with their company name, overall rating, number of reviews, certification badge and basic profile information), with non-certified
service professionals appearing below certified service professionals in directory search results. Certified service professionals can also provide exclusive
promotions to members. When consumers choose to be matched with a service professional, our proprietary algorithm will determine where a given service
professional appears within related results.
Service professionals pay fees for consumer matches, at their election, and subscription fees for Leads memberships, which are available for purchase
through our sales force. The basic annual membership package includes membership in our digital marketplace, as well as access to consumer matches (for
which additional fees are generally paid) and a listing in our online directory and certain other affiliated directories. Basic annual membership also includes
a business profile page on HomeAdvisor.com and Angi.com, a mobile application and access to various online tools designed to help service professionals
more effectively market to, manage and connect with, consumers with whom they have been matched.
Once a member, service professionals must maintain at least a three-star customer rating. If a service professional fails to meet any eligibility criteria
during the membership term, refuses to participate in the complaint resolution process, or engages
5
Table of Contents
in what we determine to be prohibited behavior through any Angi platform, the service professional is subject to being removed from the Angi network.
Services Overview
Through our Services business, we provide a pre-priced offering service, pursuant to which consumers can request services through Angi and Handy
branded platforms and pay for such services on the applicable platform directly. When consumers request household services directly through Services
platforms, requests are fulfilled by independently established home services providers engaged in a trade, occupation and/or business that customarily
provide such services.
Consumer Services
Consumers can submit requests for work to be done on the Handy and Angi platforms and referrals will be made based on the type of service desired,
location and the date and time the consumer wants the service to be provided. In addition, consumers who purchase furniture, electronics, appliances and
other home-related items from select third-party retail partners online (and in certain markets, in store) can simultaneously purchase assembly, installation
and other related services to be fulfilled by Services service professionals, which are then paid for by the consumer directly through the applicable third-
party retail partner platform.
Service Professional Services
Services service professionals are provided with access to a pool of consumers seeking service professionals and must validate their home services
experiences, as well as attest to holding the requisite license, and maintain an acceptable rating to remain on Services platforms. In addition, the owner(s) or
principal(s) of such service provider must pass certain criminal background checks. Access to Service platforms will be revoked for service professionals
that repeatedly receive low customer satisfaction ratings.
Roofing Overview
The business within our Roofing segment provides roof replacement and repair services, primarily in Florida (and, to a lesser extent, in Arizona and
Texas). Requests for roof replacement and repair services are currently fulfilled via Angi Roofing, LLC, the entity that was formed by Angi Inc. in July
2021 to acquire certain assets and liabilities of Total Home Roofing, LLC.
Consumer Services
Roofing consumers are identified through lead generation services, as well as organically through consumers that reach out directly, who are able to
receive roof replacement services.
Service Professional Services
Angi Roofing contracts with independent roofing professional in each market to fulfil the services.
Our International Businesses
Through the International (Europe and Canada) segment, Angi Inc. also operates several international businesses that connect consumers with home
service professionals, including: (i) Travaux, MyHammer and Werkspot, leading home services marketplaces in France, Germany and the Netherlands,
respectively, (ii) MyBuilder, one of the leading home services marketplaces in the United Kingdom, (iii) the Austrian operations of MyHammer, (iv) the
Italian operations of Werkspot and (v) Homestars, a leading home services marketplace in Canada. Angi Inc. owns controlling interests in Travaux,
MyHammer, Werkspot and MyBuilder and wholly owns Homestars. The business models of the international businesses vary by jurisdiction and differ in
certain respects from the business models of Angi Inc.’s various domestic businesses.
Revenue
Ads and Leads Revenue is primarily derived from (i) consumer connection revenue, which is comprised of fees paid by service professionals for
consumer matches (regardless of whether the service professional ultimately provides the requested service), (ii) advertising revenue, which includes
revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising, and (iii) membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
Consumer connection revenue varies based upon several factors, including the service requested, product experience offered, and geographic location of
service. Services is primarily comprised of revenue from jobs sourced directly through the platform and through retail partnerships and completed by a
service professional assigned by our platform. Roofing is comprised of revenue from roofing projects. International is primarily comprised of revenue from
consumer connection revenue for consumer matches and membership subscription from service professionals and consumers.
Marketing
6
Table of Contents
In March 2021, the Company changed its name to Angi Inc. and updated one of its leading websites and brands, Angie’s List, to Angi, and
concentrated its marketing investment in the Angi brand in order to focus its marketing, sales, and branding efforts to a single brand.
We market our various products and services to consumers primarily through digital marketing (primarily paid and free search engine marketing,
display advertising and third-party affiliate agreements) as well as through traditional offline marketing (national television and radio campaigns), and e-
mail. Pursuant to third-party affiliate agreements, third parties agree to advertise and promote our various products and services (and those of our various
service professionals) on their platforms. In exchange for these efforts, these third parties are paid a fixed fee when visitors from their platforms click
through and submit a valid service request through our platforms, or when visitors submit a valid service request on the affiliate platform and the affiliate
transmits the service request to us. We also market our various products and services to consumers through relationships with select third-party retail
partners and, to a lesser extent, through partnerships with other contextually related websites and direct mail.
We market our term-based advertising and related products offered by our Ads business and the matching services and membership subscriptions
offered by our Leads business to service professionals primarily through our sales force. These products and services are also marketed together with our
Services products and various directories, through paid search engine marketing, digital media advertising and direct relationships with trade associations
and manufacturers.
Both generally, and in connection with the brand integration initiative, we have made (and expect we will continue to make) substantial investments in
digital and traditional offline marketing (with continued expansion into new and existing digital platforms) to consumers and service professionals to
promote our products and services and drive visitors to our various platforms and service professionals.
Technology
Each of our brands and businesses develops its own technology to support its products and services, leveraging both open-source and vendor supported
software technology. We have dedicated engineering teams for our domestic and certain international businesses responsible for software development and
the creation of new features to support our products and services across a full range of existing, new, and emerging devices and platforms. Our engineering
teams use an agile development process that allows us to deploy frequent iterative releases for product and service features.
Competition
The home services industry is highly competitive and fragmented, and in many important respects, local in nature. We compete with, among others: (i)
search engines and online directories, (ii) home and/or local services-related platforms, (iii) providers of consumer ratings, reviews and referrals and (iv)
various forms of traditional offline advertising (primarily local in nature), including radio, direct marketing campaigns, yellow pages, newspapers and other
offline directories. We also compete with local and national retailers of home improvement products that offer or promote installation services. We believe
our biggest competition comes from the traditional methods most people currently use to find service professionals, which are by word-of-mouth and
through referrals.
We believe that our ability to compete successfully will depend primarily upon the following factors:
our ability to continue to build and maintain awareness of, and trust in and loyalty to, the Angi brand; and
the functionality of our websites and mobile applications and the attractiveness of their features and our products and services generally to
consumers and service professionals, as well as our continued ability to introduce new products and services that resonate with consumers and
service professionals generally;
the ability of the Services business to expand pre-priced booking services, while balancing the overall mix of service requests and directory
services on our platforms generally;
the size, quality, diversity and stability of our network of service professionals and the breadth of our online directory listings;
our ability to consistently generate service requests and pre-priced bookings through our platforms that convert into revenue for our service
professionals in a cost-effective manner;
our ability to continue to attract (and increase) traffic to our brands and platforms through search engines, including the ability to ensure that
information from such brands and platforms and related links are displayed prominently in free search engine results and that paid search
marketing efforts are cost-effective, as well as the ability to respond to changes in the usage and functioning of search engines;
our ability to increasingly engage with consumers directly through our platforms, including our various mobile applications (rather than through
search engine marketing or via free search engine referrals); and

the quality and consistency of our service professional pre-screening processes and ongoing quality control efforts, as well as the reliability, depth
and timeliness of customer ratings and reviews.
Intellectual Property
We regard our intellectual property rights as critical to our success in the United States, with our trademarks, service marks and domain names being
especially critical to the continued development and awareness of our brands and our marketing efforts.
We protect our intellectual property rights through a combination of registered copyrights, trademarks, and domain name registrations, trade secrets
and patent applications, as well as through contractual restrictions and reliance on federal, state and common law. We also enter into confidentiality and
proprietary rights agreements with employees, consultants, contractors and business partners, and employees and contractors are also subject to proprietary
information and invention assignment provisions.
We have several registered trademarks in the United States (the most significant of which relate to our Angi and HomeAdvisor brands), as well as
other trademarks in Europe and Canada, and several pending trademark applications in the United States and certain other jurisdictions. We have also
registered a variety of domestic and international domain names, the most significant of which relate to our Angi brand. In addition, we have one patent
that expires in November 2035 and three patent applications pending.
Government Regulation
We are subject to laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet generally and through mobile applications, including
laws relating to the liability of providers of online services for their operations and the activities of their users. As a result, we could be subject to claims
based on negligence, various torts and trademark and copyright infringement, among other actions.
In addition, because we receive, transmit, store and use a substantial amount of information received from or generated by consumers and service
professionals, we are also impacted by laws and regulations governing privacy, the storage, sharing, use, processing, disclosure and protection of personal
data and data breaches. See “Item 1A-Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Business and Industry-The processing, storage, use and disclosure of personal data
could give rise to liabilities and increased costs.”
We are particularly sensitive to laws and regulations that adversely impact the popularity or growth in use of the Internet and/or online products and
services generally, restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or manner in which we provide our products and services, regulate the practices of
third parties upon which we rely to provide our products and services and undermine open and neutrally administered Internet access. For example, the
Digital Markets Act and the Digital Services Act (which both came into force in November 2022) form a single set of new rules that will be applicable to
online intermediaries and platforms across the whole EU to seek to create a safer and more open digital space. Failure to comply with the Digital Services
Act could result in the imposition of fines in an amount of up to 6% of a given online intermediary or platform’s annual worldwide turnover in the
preceding fiscal year. Further, the United Kingdom is expected to enact in 2023 the Online Safety Bill that would significantly increase responsibilities of
online platforms to control illegal or harmful activity and grant broad authority to the UK communications regulator to enforce its provisions. And as
proposed, failure to comply with the Online Safety Bill could result in significant fines, blocking of services and personal liability for senior management.
To the extent our businesses are required to implement new measures and/or make changes to our products and services to ensure compliance, our business,
financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Compliance with this legislation or similar or more stringent legislation in other
jurisdictions could be costly, and the failure to comply could result in service interruptions and negative publicity, any or all of which could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, in December 2017, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”)
adopted an order reversing net neutrality protections in the United States, including the repeal of specific rules against blocking, throttling or “paid
prioritization” of content or services by Internet service providers. In the wake of the FCC’s repeal of its net neutrality laws, many states, including
California and New York, have adopted their own neutrality laws imposing some degree of regulation on internet service providers operating in those
states. Many of these regulations remain subject to legal challenge in the courts, although some, including California’s have been allowed to take effect
while those challenges are concluded. To the extent Internet service providers take such actions, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be adversely affected. Similarly, there have been various legislative efforts to restrict the scope of the protections available to online platforms under
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, and our current protections from liability for third-party content in the United States could decrease or
change as a result. Any future adverse changes to Section 230 could result in additional compliance costs for us and/or exposure for additional liabilities.
We are also subject to laws governing marketing and advertising activities conducted by/through telephone, e-mail, mobile devices and the Internet,
including the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, the Telemarketing Sales Rule, the CAN-
8
Table of Contents
SPAM Act and similar state laws, as well as federal, state, and local laws and agency guidelines governing background screening.
In addition, we also are subject to various other federal, state, and local laws, rules and regulations focused on consumer protection. These laws, rules
and regulations are enforced by governmental entities such as the Federal Trade Commission and state Attorneys General offices and may confer private
rights of action on consumers as well. Changes in these laws, or a proceeding of this nature, could have an adverse effect on us due to legal costs, impacts
on business operations, diversion of management resources, negative publicity, and other factors. See “Item 3-Legal Proceedings-FTC Administrative
Proceeding against HomeAdvisor.”
We are also generally sensitive to the adoption of new tax laws. The European Commission and several European countries have recently adopted (or
intend to adopt) proposals that would change various aspects of the current tax framework under which our European businesses are taxed, including
proposals to change or impose new types of non-income taxes (including digital services taxes based on a percentage of revenue). For example, we are
subject to and pay the Digital Services Tax in the United Kingdom, France, and Italy. Certain of our businesses are subject to digital services taxes in one or
more of the jurisdictions listed above and similar proposed tax laws could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As a provider of products and services with a membership-based element, we are also sensitive to the adoption of laws and regulations affecting the
ability of our businesses to periodically charge for recurring membership or subscription payments. For example, many U.S. states have considered
enacting legislation that could impact the ability of our businesses to efficiently process auto-renewal payments for, as well as offer promotional or
differentiated pricing. The adoption of any law that adversely affects revenue from recurring membership or subscription payments could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are particularly sensitive to laws and regulations related to the adoption and interpretation of worker classification laws, specifically, laws that
could effectively require us to change our classification of certain of our service professional from independent contractors to employees. See “Item 1A-
Risk Factors-Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Business and Industry-There may be adverse tax, legal and other consequences if the contractor
classification or employment status of the service professionals who use our platform is challenged.”
Human Capital Management
As of December 31, 2022, we employed approximately 4,600 employees worldwide, the substantial majority of which provided services to our brands
and businesses located in the United States. From time to time, we also retain consultants and independent contractors.
Talent and Development
The development, attraction and retention of employees is critical to our success. We strive to provide an atmosphere that fosters teamwork and
growth. We continue to invest in a more productive, engaged, diverse and inclusive workforce. To support the advancement of our employees, we offer
training and development programs and encourage advancement from within. In 2020, we launched a learning management system for broader facilitation
of training resources. We leverage both formal and informal programs designed to identify, foster, and retain top talent. We believe that our culture enables
us to create, develop and fully leverage the strengths of our workforce to exceed consumer expectations and meet our growth objectives. We also place a
high value on inclusion, engaging employees in our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council, or DEI, which is staffed by employees with diverse
backgrounds, experiences and/or characteristics who share a common interest in professional development, improving corporate culture and delivering
sustained business results. Recent DEI initiatives include unconscious bias training, a women in leadership program, and employee resources groups to
promote community and inclusion.
Total Rewards and Benefits
As part of our compensation philosophy, we believe that we must offer and maintain market competitive total rewards programs for our employees in
order to attract and retain superior talent. These programs include base wages and incentives in support of our pay for performance culture, as well as
health, welfare, and retirement benefits, vision, dental, life, prescription, and long-term disability insurance plans. We also provide employee paid
supplemental life and accident insurance plans. To help employees cover medical expenses pre-tax, we offer employees a Flexible Spending Account. We
also focus many programs on employee wellness and have implemented solutions including mental health support access, telemedicine, meditation, and
fitness programs. We also offer our US-based full-time employees a 401(k) retirement plan with a Company match.
Community
9
Table of Contents
We encourage our employees to become involved in their communities by providing full-time employees with paid-time off each year to volunteer in
local community-based programs.
COVID Response
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we quickly implemented safety and health standards and protocols for our employees to ensure a safe work
environment. Employees in our offices have been working remotely since March 2020 and we have moved our sales employees to work fully remotely.
Our corporate employees near our Denver, Colorado, New York City and Indianapolis, Indiana offices returned to the office in mid-2022 and continued to
adhere to the recommended protocols of the Centers for Disease Control or local regulations. We have offered paid leave for COVID-related illness that
meet local requirements.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our US-based employees are required to annually certify to their familiarity and compliance with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. We also
maintain an ethics hotline that is available to all of our employees to report (anonymously, if desired) any general ethics-related matter of concern.

RELATIONSHIP WITH IAC
Equity Ownership and Vote
We have two classes of capital stock outstanding, Class A common stock and Class B common stock, with one vote and ten votes per share,
respectively. Our shares of Class B common stock are convertible into shares of Class A common stock on a share for share basis. As of December 31,
2022, IAC owned all of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock, and 2,588,180 outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, in
total representing approximately 84.1% of our total outstanding shares of capital stock and approximately 98.1% of the total combined voting power of our
outstanding capital stock.
Intercompany Agreements
In connection with the Combination, we and IAC entered into certain agreements to govern our relationship following the Combination. These
agreements include the following:
Contribution Agreement
Under the contribution agreement: (i) we agreed to assume all of the assets and liabilities related to the HomeAdvisor business and indemnify IAC
against any losses arising out of any breach by us of the contribution agreement or any other transaction related agreement described below and (ii) IAC
agreed to indemnify us against any losses arising out of any breach by IAC of the contribution agreement or any other transaction related agreement
described below.

Table of Contents
Investor Rights Agreement
Under the investor rights agreement, IAC has certain registration, preemptive and governance rights related to us and the shares of our capital stock it
holds. The investor rights agreement also provides certain governance rights for the benefit of stockholders other than IAC.
Services Agreement
The services agreement currently governs services that IAC has agreed to provide to us through September 29, 2021, with automatic renewal for
successive one-year terms, subject to IAC’s continued ownership of a majority of the total combined voting power of our voting stock and any subsequent
extension(s) or truncation(s) agreed to by us and IAC. The services agreement has been renewed through September 29, 2023. Services currently provided
to us by IAC pursuant this agreement include: (i) assistance with certain legal, M&A, finance, risk management, internal audit and treasury functions,
health and welfare benefits, information security services and insurance and tax affairs, including assistance with certain public company and unclaimed
property reporting obligations and (ii) accounting, investor relations, and tax compliance services. The scope, nature and extent of services may be changed
from time to time as we and IAC may agree.
Tax Sharing Agreement
The tax sharing agreement governs our and IAC’s rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, entitlements to
refunds, preparation of tax returns, tax contests and other tax matters regarding U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes. Under the tax sharing
agreement, we are generally responsible and required to indemnify IAC for: (i) all taxes imposed with respect to any consolidated, combined or unitary tax
return of IAC or its subsidiaries that includes us or any of our subsidiaries (to the extent attributable to us or any of our subsidiaries, as determined under
the tax sharing agreement) and (ii) all taxes imposed with respect to any consolidated, combined, unitary or separate tax returns of us or our subsidiaries.
Employee Matters Agreement
The employee matters agreement addresses certain compensation and benefit issues related to the allocation of liabilities associated with: (i)
employment or termination of employment; (ii) employee benefit plans and (iii) equity awards. Under the employee matters agreement, our employees
participate in IAC’s U.S. health and welfare plans, 401(k) plan and flexible benefits plan and we reimburse IAC for the costs of such participation. In the
event IAC no longer retains shares representing at least 80% of the aggregate voting power of shares entitled to vote in the election of our board of
directors, we will no longer participate in IAC’s employee benefit plans, but will establish our own employee benefit plans that will be substantially similar
to the plans sponsored by IAC.
In addition, under the employee matters agreement, we are required to reimburse IAC for the cost of any IAC equity awards held by our current and
former employees, with IAC having the ability to elect to receive payment either in cash or shares of our Class B common stock. This agreement also
provides that IAC has the ability to require that stock appreciation rights granted prior to the closing of the Combination and equity awards denominated in
shares of our subsidiaries to be settled in either shares of our Class A common stock or IAC common stock. To the extent that shares of IAC common stock
are issued in settlement of these awards, we are obligated to reimburse IAC for the cost of those shares by issuing shares of our Class A common stock in
the case of stock appreciation rights granted prior to the closing of the Combination and shares of our Class B common stock in the case of equity awards
denominated in shares of our subsidiaries.
Lastly, pursuant to the employee matters agreement, in the event of a distribution of Angi Inc. capital stock to IAC stockholders in a transaction
intended to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the IAC board of directors has
the exclusive authority to determine the treatment of outstanding IAC equity awards. Such authority includes (but is not limited to) the ability to convert all
or part of IAC equity awards outstanding immediately prior to the distribution into equity awards denominated in shares of our Class A Common Stock,
which we would be obligated to assume and which would be dilutive to our stockholders.

Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Our success will depend, in substantial part, on the continued migration of the home services market online.
We believe that the digital penetration of the home services market remains low, with the vast majority of consumers continuing to search for, select
and hire service professionals offline. While many consumers have historically been (and remain) averse to finding service professionals online, others
have demonstrated a greater willingness to embrace the online shift. Service professionals must also continue to embrace the online shift, which will
depend, in substantial part, on whether online products and services help them to better connect and engage with consumers relative to traditional offline
efforts. The speed and ultimate outcome of the shift of the home services market online for consumers and service professionals is uncertain and may not
occur as quickly as we expect, or at all. The failure or delay of a meaningful number of consumers and/or service professionals to migrate online and/or the
return of a meaningful number of existing participants in the online home services market to offline solutions, could adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Marketing efforts designed to drive traffic to our brands and businesses may not be successful or cost-effective.
Attracting consumers and service professionals to our brands and businesses involves considerable expenditures for online and offline marketing. We
have made, and expect to continue to make, significant marketing expenditures for digital marketing (primarily paid search engine marketing, display
advertising and third-party affiliate agreements) and traditional offline marketing (national television and radio campaigns). These efforts may not be
successful or cost-effective. Historically, we have had to increase marketing expenditures over time to attract and retain consumers and service
professionals and sustain our growth.
Our ability to market our brands on any given property or channel is subject to the policies of the relevant third-party seller, publisher of advertising
(including search engines, web browsers and social media platforms with extraordinarily high levels of traffic and numbers of users) or marketing affiliate.
As a result, we cannot assure you that these parties will not limit or prohibit us from purchasing certain types of advertising (including the purchase by
Angi of advertising with preferential placement), advertising certain of our products and services and/or using one or more current or prospective marketing
channels in the future. If a significant marketing channel took such an action generally, for a significant period of time and/or on a recurring basis, our
business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, if we fail to comply with the policies of third-party sellers,
publishers and/or marketing affiliates, our advertisements could be removed without notice and/or our accounts could be suspended or terminated, any of
which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, our failure to respond to rapid and frequent changes in the pricing and operating dynamics of search engines, as well as changing policies
and guidelines applicable to keyword advertising (which may unilaterally be updated by search engines without advance notice), could adversely affect our
paid search engine marketing efforts (and free search engine traffic). Such changes could adversely affect paid listings (both their placement and pricing),
as well as the ranking of our brands and businesses within search results, any or all of which could increase our marketing expenditures (particularly if free
traffic is replaced with paid traffic). Any or all of these events could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition,
if there are changes in the usage and functioning of search engines and/or decreases in consumer use of search engines, for example, as a result of the
continued development of artificial intelligence technology, this could negatively impact our ability to drive traffic to our platforms.
Evolving consumer behavior (specifically, increased consumption of media through digital means) can also affect the availability of profitable
marketing opportunities. To continue to reach and engage consumers and service professionals and grow in this environment, we will need to continue to
identify and devote more of our overall marketing expenditures to newer digital advertising channels (such as online video, social media, streaming, OTT
and other digital platforms), as well as target consumers and service professionals via these channels in a cost-effective manner. As these channels continue
to evolve relative to traditional channels (such as television), it could continue to be difficult to assess returns on related marketing investments, which
could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
12
Table of Contents
Lastly, we also enter into various arrangements with third parties to drive visitors to Angi platforms. These arrangements are generally more cost-
effective than traditional marketing efforts. If we are unable to renew existing (and enter into new) arrangements of this nature, sales and marketing costs as
a percentage of revenue would increase over the long-term, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In
addition, the quality and convertibility of traffic and leads generated through third-party arrangements are dependent on many factors, most of which are
outside our control. If the quality and/or convertibility of traffic and leads do not meet the expectations of our users and/or Angi Leads service
professionals, they could leave our network and/or decrease their budgets for consumer matches or participation in pre-priced booking services, any or all
of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We rely on Internet search engines to drive traffic to our various properties. Certain operators of search services offer products and services that
compete directly with our products and services. If links to websites offering our products and services are not displayed prominently in search results,
traffic to our properties could decline and our business could be adversely affected.
In addition to paid marketing, we rely heavily on Internet search engines, such as Google, to drive traffic to our properties through their unpaid search
results. Although search results have allowed us to attract a large audience with low organic traffic acquisition costs in the past, if they fail to continue to
drive sufficient traffic to our properties, we may need to increase our marketing spend to acquire additional traffic. We cannot assure you that the value we
ultimately derive from any such additional traffic would exceed the cost of acquisition, and any increase in marketing expense may in turn harm our
operating results.
The amount of traffic we attract from search engines is due in large part to how and where information about our brands (and links to websites offering
our products and services) are displayed on search engine results pages. The display, including rankings, of unpaid search results can be affected by a
number of factors, many of which are not in our direct control, and may change frequently. Search engines have made changes in the past to their ranking
algorithms, methodologies and design layouts that have reduced the prominence of links to websites offering our products and services, and negatively
impacted traffic to such websites, and we expect that search engines will continue to make such changes from time to time in the future. In addition,
changes in the usage and functioning of search engines and/or decreases in consumer use of search engines, for example, as a result of the continued
development of artificial intelligence technology, could negatively impact our ability to drive traffic to our properties.
However, we may not know how (or otherwise be in a position) to influence actions of this nature taken by search engines. With respect to search
results in particular, even when search engines announce the details of their methodologies, their parameters may change from time to time, be poorly
defined or be inconsistently interpreted.
In addition, in some instances, search engines may change their displays or rankings in order to promote their own competing products or services, or
the products or services of one or more of our competitors. Any such action could negatively impact the search rankings of links to websites offering our
products and services, or the prominence with which such links appear in search results. Our success depends on the ability of our products and services to
maintain a prominent position in search results, and in the event operators of search engines promote their own competing products in the future in a
manner that has the effect of reducing the prominence or ranking of our products and services, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be adversely affected.
The Angi brand integration initiative may continue to involve substantial costs, including as a result of a continued negative impact on our organic
search placement.
In March 2021, we updated one of our leading websites and brands, Angie’s List, to Angi, and since then, have concentrated our marketing investment
on the Angi brand in order to focus our marketing, sales and branding efforts on a single brand. To date, we have incurred (and we expect to continue to
incur) substantial costs as a result of this brand integration initiative and the Angi brand may not be able to achieve or maintain brand name recognition or
status that is comparable to the recognition and status previously enjoyed by Angie’s List.
We rely heavily on free (or organic) search results from search engine optimization and paid search engine marketing efforts to drive traffic to Angi
platforms. The brand integration initiative initially adversely affected the placement and ranking of our websites, particularly Angi.com, in organic search
results as Angi does not have the same domain history as Angie’s List. Organic search results have continued to decline year-over-year and remain below
pre-March 2021 levels. In addition, the shift of marketing support to the Angi brand (away from the HomeAdvisor brand) continues to negatively affect
(and we expect that it will continue to negatively affect) the efficiency of our search engine marketing efforts. The continuing occurrence of any or all of
these events and trends could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends on our ability to expand our pre-priced offerings, while balancing the overall mix of our service requests and directory services on
Angi platforms.
13
Table of Contents
Our Services business provides a pre-priced offering, pursuant to which consumers can request services through Services platforms and pay for such
services on the applicable platform directly. These service requests are then fulfilled by independently established home services providers engaged in a
trade, occupation and/or business that customarily provide such services. Increases in pre-priced offerings (which we expect to be the case over time) could
reduce the levels of service professional participation in our Ads and Leads offerings, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Our success depends, in substantial part, on our ability to establish and maintain relationships with quality and trustworthy service professionals.
We must continue to attract, retain and grow the number of skilled and reliable service professionals who can provide services across our platforms. If
we do not offer innovative products and services that resonate with consumers and service professionals generally, as well as provide service professionals
with an attractive return on their marketing and advertising investments, the number of service professionals affiliated with our platforms would decrease.
Any such decrease would result in smaller and less diverse networks and directories of service professionals, and in turn, decreases in service requests, pre-
priced offerings and directory searches, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition to skill and reliability, consumers want to work with service professionals whom they can trust to work in their homes and with whom they
can feel safe. While we maintain screening processes (which generally include certain, limited background checks) to try and prevent unsuitable service
professionals from joining our platforms, these processes have limitations and, even with these safety measures, no assurances can be provided regarding
the future behavior of any service provider on our platforms. Inappropriate and/or unlawful behavior of service professionals generally (particularly any
such behavior that compromises the trustworthiness of service providers and/or of the safety of consumers), could result in decreases in service requests,
bad publicity and related damage to our reputation, brands and brand-building efforts and/or actions by governmental and regulatory authorities, criminal
proceedings and/or litigation. The occurrence or any of these events could, in turn, adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to develop and monetize versions of our products and services for mobile and other digital
devices.
As consumers increasingly access our products and services through mobile and other digital devices (including through digital voice assistants), we
will need to continue to devote significant time and resources to ensure that our products and services are accessible across these platforms (and multiple
platforms generally). If we do not keep pace with evolving online, market and industry trends including the introduction of new and enhanced digital
devices and changes in the preferences and needs of consumers and service professionals generally, offer new and/or enhanced products and services in
response to such trends that resonate with consumers and service professionals, monetize products and services for mobile and other digital devices as
effectively as our traditional products and services and/or maintain related systems, technology and infrastructure in an efficient and cost-effective manner,
our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, the success of our mobile and other digital products and services depends on their interoperability with various third-party operating
systems, technology, infrastructure and standards, over which we have no control. Any changes to any of these things that compromise the quality or
functionality of our mobile and other digital products and services could adversely affect their usage levels and/or our ability to attract consumers and
service professionals, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to access, collect and use personal data about consumers.
We depend on search engines, digital app stores and social media platforms, in particular, those operated by Google, Apple and Facebook, to market,
distribute and monetize our products and services. Consumers engage with these platforms directly, and as a result, these platforms generally receive
personal data about consumers that we would otherwise receive if we transacted with them directly. Certain of these platforms have restricted (and continue
to restrict) our access to personal data about users of our products and services obtained through their platforms. In addition, the privacy and data collection
policies of certain platforms require users to opt-in to sharing their devices’ unique identifiers with our businesses, which allow them to recognize a given
device and track related activity across applications and websites, primarily for marketing purposes. If these platforms continue to limit, eliminate or
otherwise interfere with our ability to access, collect and use personal data about users of our products and services, our ability to identify, communicate
with, and market to a meaningful portion of our user base may be adversely impacted. If so, our customer relationship management efforts, our ability to
identify, target and reach new segments of our user base and the population generally, and the efficiency of our paid marketing efforts could be adversely
affected. We cannot assure you that search engines, digital app stores and social media platforms upon which we rely will not continue to limit, eliminate or
otherwise interfere with our ability to access, collect and use personal data about users of our products and services. To the extent that any or all of them do
so, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Table of Contents
Our ability to communicate with consumers and service professionals via e-mail (or other sufficient means) is critical to our success.
Historically, one of our primary means of communicating with consumers and service professionals and keeping them engaged with our products and
services has been via e-mail communication. Through e-mail, we provide consumers and service professionals with service request and pre-priced offering
updates, as well as present or suggest new products and services (among other things) and market our products and services in a cost-effective manner. As
consumers increasingly communicate via mobile and other digital devices and messaging and social media apps, usage of e-mail (particularly among
younger consumers) has declined and we expect this trend to continue. In addition, deliverability and other restrictions could limit or prevent our ability to
send e-mails to consumers and service professionals. A continued and significant erosion in our ability to communicate with consumers and service
professionals via e-mail could adversely impact the overall user experience, consumer and service professional engagement levels and conversion rates,
which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that any alternative means of communication
(for example, push notifications and text messaging) will be as effective as e-mail has been historically.
There may be adverse tax, legal and other consequences if the contractor classification or employment status of the service professionals who use our
platform is challenged.
We are particularly sensitive to the adoption of worker classification laws, specifically, laws that could effectively require us to change our
classification of certain of our service professionals from independent contractors to employees, as well as changes to state and local laws or judicial
decisions related to the definition and/or classification of independent contractors. For example, in 2019, California passed a worker classification statute
(AB 5), which effectively narrowed the definition of an independent contractor, using a strict test to determine a given worker’s classification and placing
the burden of proof for meeting that test on the hiring entity. AB5 also provided enforcement powers to the state and certain cities, leading the state and
certain cities to initiate litigation to enforce the new law, particularly against app-based platform companies. AB 5 has been the subject of widespread
national discussion, leading other jurisdictions (including Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, among others) to bring enforcement action against
alleged independent contractor misclassification and/or to propose legislation adopting a legal test similar to the one set forth in AB 5. At the same time,
there has been a trend of the Internal Revenue Service entering into work and information sharing agreements with the U.S. Department of Labor and state
taxing authorities to address worker classification issues. Since we currently treat service professionals who provide services through our business as
independent contractors for all purposes, we do not withhold federal, state and local income or other employment related taxes, make federal or state
unemployment tax or Federal Insurance Contributions Act payments or provide workers’ compensation insurance with respect to these individuals. If we
are required to reclassify these individuals as employees and/or their classification is challenged for any reason, we could be exposed to various liabilities
and additional costs for prior and future periods, including under federal, state and local tax laws, workers’ compensation and unemployment benefits,
minimum and overtime wage laws, and other labor and employment laws, as well as potential liability for penalties and interest. If the amounts related to
such liabilities and additional costs are significant, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. As of the date of
this report, we are involved in certain legal proceedings and investigations challenging the classification of these individuals as independent contractors,
none of which we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and may become involved in
other proceedings and investigations of this nature in the future.
General Risk Factors
Our brands and businesses operate in an especially competitive and evolving industry.
The home services industry is competitive, with a consistent and growing stream of new products, services and entrants. Some of our competitors may
enjoy better competitive positions in certain geographical areas, with certain consumer and service professional demographics and/or in other key areas that
we currently serve or may serve in the future. Generally, we compete with search engines, online marketplaces and social media platforms that can market
their products and services online in a more prominent and cost-effective manner than we can, as well as better tailor their products and services to
individual users. Any of these advantages could enable these competitors to offer products and services that are more appealing to consumers and service
professionals than our products and services, respond more quickly and/or cost effectively than we do to evolving market opportunities and trends, and/or
display their own integrated or related home services products and services in search results and elsewhere in a more prominent manner than our products
and services, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, since most of our home services products and services are offered to consumers for free, consumers can easily switch among home
services offerings (or use multiple home services offerings simultaneously) at no cost to them. And while service professionals may incur additional or
duplicative near-term costs, the costs for switching to a competing platform over the long term are generally not prohibitive. Low switching costs, coupled
with the propensity of consumers to try new products and services generally, will most likely result in the continued emergence of new products and
services, entrants and business
15
Table of Contents
models in the home services industry. Our inability to continue to innovate and compete effectively against new products, services and competitors could
result in decreases in the size and level of engagement of our consumer and service professional bases, any of which could adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Our brands and businesses are sensitive to general economic events and trends, particularly those that adversely impact consumer confidence and
spending behavior.
We have historically been, and will continue to be, particularly sensitive to events and trends that result in consumers delaying or foregoing home
services projects and/or service professionals being less likely to pay for consumer matches and subscriptions. Such factors include general economic
conditions and other factors, such as consumer confidence in future economic conditions, recessionary concerns, rising interest rates, increased inflation,
the availability and cost of consumer credit, levels of unemployment and tax rates. As global economic conditions continue to be volatile and/or economic
uncertainty remains, particularly in light of increasing inflation and interest rates, trends affecting our business also remain unpredictable. Any such event
or trend could result in decreases in service requests, pre-priced bookings and directory searches. Any such decreases could adversely impact the number
and quality of service professionals and/or adversely impact the reach of (and breath of services offered through) the Leads and Services and our
directories, any or all of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Lastly, we have historically been, and will continue to be, sensitive to events and trends that could result in decreased marketing and advertising
expenditures by service professionals. Adverse economic conditions and trends could result in service professionals decreasing and/or delaying fees paid
for consumer matches, pre-priced bookings, membership subscriptions and/or time-based advertising spend, any or all of which would result in decreased
revenue and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends, in substantial part, on our ability to maintain and/or enhance our brands, which could be negatively impacted by various factors.
We own and operate two of the leading home services brands in the United States (Angi and HomeAdvisor), as well as leading brands in several
foreign jurisdictions. In March 2021, we updated one of our leading websites and brands, Angie’s List, to Angi, and concentrated our marketing investment
in the Angi brand in order to focus our marketing, sales, and branding efforts on a single brand.
We believe that our success depends, in substantial part, on our continued ability to build awareness and loyalty to our Angi brand, maintain and
enhance our established brands, as well as build awareness of (and loyalty to) our newer brands. Events that could negatively impact our brands and brand-
building efforts include (among others): product and service quality concerns; service professional quality concerns; consumer and service professional
complaints and lawsuits; lack of awareness of our policies or confusion about how the policies are applied; a failure to respond to feedback from our
service professionals and consumers; ineffective advertising; inappropriate and/or unlawful acts perpetrated by service professionals and consumers;
actions or proceedings commenced by governmental or regulatory authorities; and inadequate data protection and security breaches including related bad
publicity. Any factors that negatively impact the Angi and/or HomeAdvisor brand(s) could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
In addition, trust in the integrity and objective, unbiased nature of the ratings and reviews found across our various brands contributes significantly to
public perception of these brands and their ability to attract consumers and service professionals. If consumer reviews are perceived as not authentic in
general, the reputation and strength of the relevant brand could be materially and adversely affected. While we use, and will continue to use, filters (among
other processes) to detect fraudulent reviews, the accuracy of consumer reviews cannot be guaranteed. If fraudulent or inaccurate reviews (positive or
negative) increase and we are unable to effectively identify and remove such reviews, the overall quality of the ratings and reviews across our various
brands could decrease and the reputation of affected brands might be harmed. This could deter consumers and service professionals from using our
products and services, which in turn could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
COVID-19 and other similar outbreaks could continue to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The impact on the Company from the coronavirus ("COVID-19") and the measures designed to contain its spread continues to impact the
comparability of the Company's year-over-year financial performance. As previously disclosed, the impact of COVID-19 in 2020 on our businesses
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 did
start to decline in May 2021 and continued to decline during 2022 due, in part, to COVID-19 measures that were more widely in place in prior periods.
While our ability to monetize service requests rebounded modestly in the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022, that improved monetization rate
trend plateaued in the third quarter of 2022 and is now in line with monetization rates experienced
16
Table of Contents
pre-COVID-19. No assurances can be provided that we will be able to increase service requests and continue to improve monetization rates, or that service
professionals' businesses (and related revenue and profitability) will not be adversely impacted in the future.
Any future outbreak of a widespread health epidemic or pandemic (or the continuing outbreak of COVID-19) and measures designed to contain its
spread could adversely impact our ability to conduct ordinary course business activities and employee productivity and increase operating costs. Moreover,
we may also experience business disruption if the ordinary course operations of our contractors, vendors and/or business partners are adversely affected.
Any of these measures could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The extent to which developments related to any future widespread health epidemic or pandemic (or the continuing COVID-19 pandemic) and
measures designed to curb its spread could impact (or 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 our control.
We may not be able to protect our systems, technology and infrastructure from cyberattacks and cyberattacks experienced by third parties may
adversely affect us.
We are regularly under attack by perpetrators of malicious technology-related events, such as the use of botnets, malware or other destructive or
disruptive software, distributed denial of service attacks, phishing, attempts to misappropriate user information and account login credentials and other
similar malicious activities. The incidence of events of this nature (or any combination thereof) is on the rise worldwide. We continuously develop and
maintain systems designed to detect and prevent events of this nature from impacting our systems, technology, infrastructure, products, services and users.
We have invested (and continue to invest) heavily in these efforts and related personnel and training and deploy data minimization strategies (where
appropriate), but these efforts are costly and require ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome preventative security
measures become more sophisticated. Despite these efforts, some of our systems have experienced past security incidents, none of which had a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and we could experience significant events of this nature in the future.
Any event of this nature that we experience could damage our systems, technology and infrastructure and/or those of our users, prevent us from
providing our products and services, compromise the integrity of our products and services, damage our reputation, erode our brands and/or be costly to
remedy, as well as subject us to investigations by regulatory authorities, fines and/or litigation that could result in liability to third parties. Even if we do not
experience such events firsthand, the impact of any such events experienced by third parties could have a similar effect. We may not have adequate
insurance coverage to compensate for losses resulting from any of these events. If we (or any third-party with whom we do business or otherwise rely
upon) experience(s) an event of this nature, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
If personal, confidential or sensitive user information that we maintain and store is breached or otherwise accessed by unauthorized persons, it may be
costly to mitigate and our reputation could be harmed.
We receive, process, store and transmit a significant amount of personal, confidential or sensitive user information and, in certain cases, enable users to
share their personal information with each other. We cannot guarantee that inadvertent or unauthorized use or disclosure will not occur or that third parties
will not gain unauthorized access to this information. When such events occur, we may not be able to remedy them, we may be required by law to notify
regulators and impacted individuals, and it may be costly to mitigate the impact of such events and to develop and implement protections to prevent future
events of this nature from occurring. When breaches of security (ours or that of any third-party we engage to store information) occur, we could face
governmental enforcement actions, significant fines, litigation (including consumer class actions) and the reputation of our brands and business could be
harmed, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if any of the search engines, digital app stores
or social media platforms through which we market, distribute and monetize our products and services were to experience a breach, third parties could gain
unauthorized access to personal data about our users and subscribers, which could harm the reputation of our brands and businesses and in turn, adversely
affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The processing, storage, use and disclosure of personal data could give rise to liabilities and increased costs.
We receive, transmit and store a large volume of personal information in connection with the provision of our products and services. The manner in
which we share, store, use, disclose and protect this information is determined by the respective privacy and data security policies of our various
businesses, as well as federal, state and foreign laws and regulations and evolving industry standards and practices, which are changing, and in some cases,
inconsistent and conflicting and subject to differing interpretations. In addition, new laws, regulations, standards and practices of this nature are proposed
and adopted from time to time.

For example, several U.S. territories and all 50 states now have data breach laws that require timely notification to individuals, and at times regulators,
the media or credit reporting agencies, if a company has experienced the unauthorized access or acquisition of personal information. Other state laws
contain additional disclosure obligations for businesses that collect personal information about residents and afford those individuals additional rights
relating to their personal information that may affect our ability to use personal information or share it with our business partners. For example, California’s
Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”) amended certain provisions of the California Consumer Privacy Act which provides California residents with certain
privacy rights in connection with the collection and disclosure of their personal information and requires businesses to make certain disclosures and take
certain other acts in furtherance of those rights. The CPRA becomes fully enforceable on July 1, 2023 and will further restrict our ability to use personal
California user and subscriber information in connection with our various products, services and operations and/or impose additional operational
requirements, which could result in increased costs. Other U.S. states, such as Virginia, Utah, Connecticut, and Colorado, have passed consumer privacy
laws that become effective later in 2023 and 2024. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact of these state laws, which may impose substantial
penalties for violations, impose significant costs for investigations and compliance, allow private class-action litigation and carry significant potential
liability for our business. Lastly, the Federal Trade Commission has also increased its focus on privacy and data security practices, and we anticipate this
focus to continue.
Outside of the U.S., data protection laws also apply to some of our operations. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) in
the United Kingdom and the European Union imposes, among other things, strict obligations and restrictions on the collection and use of U.K. and
European Union personal data, a requirement for prompt notice of data breaches in certain circumstances, a requirement for implementation of certain
approved safeguards for transfers of personal data to third countries, and possible substantial fines for any violations. Governmental authorities around the
world have enacted similar types of legislative and regulatory requirements concerning data protection, and additional governments are considering similar
legal frameworks.
We could be subject to claims of non-compliance with applicable privacy and data protection policies, laws and regulations and industry standards and
practices that we may not be able to successfully defend and/or significant fines and penalties. Moreover, any non-compliance or perceived non-compliance
by us (or any third-party we engage to store or process information) or any compromise of security that results in unauthorized access to (or use or
transmission of) personal information could result in a variety of claims against us, including governmental enforcement actions, significant fines, litigation
(including consumer class actions), claims of breach of contract and indemnity by third parties and adverse publicity. When such events occur, our
reputation could be harmed and the competitive positions of our various brands and businesses could be diminished, which could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, to the extent multiple U.S. state-level (or European Union member-state level) laws are
introduced with inconsistent or conflicting standards and there is no federal or European Union regulation to preempt such laws, compliance could be even
more difficult to achieve and our potential exposure to the risks discussed above could increase.
Lastly, ongoing compliance with existing (and compliance with future) privacy and data protection laws worldwide could be costly. The devotion of
significant costs to compliance (versus the development of products and services) could result in delays in the development of new products and services,
us ceasing to provide problematic products and services in existing jurisdictions and us being prevented from introducing products and services in new and
existing jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Credit card data security breaches or fraud could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We accept payments (including recurring payments) from service professionals and consumers, primarily through credit and debit card transactions.
The ability to access payment information on a real-time basis without having to proactively reach out to service professionals and consumers to process
payments is critical to our success.
When third parties (including credit card processing companies, as well as any business that offers products and services online or offline) experience a
data security breach involving credit card information, affected cardholders will often cancel their credit cards. The more sizable a given affected third-
party’s customer base, the greater the number of accounts impacted and the more likely it will be that our service professionals and consumers would be
impacted by such a breach. If such a breach were to impact our service professionals and consumers, we would need to contact affected service
professionals and consumers to obtain new payment information. It is likely that we would not be able to reach all affected service professionals and
consumers, and even if we could, new payment information for some may not be obtained and pending payments may not be processed, which could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Even if our service professionals and consumers are not directly impacted by a given data security breach, they may lose confidence in the ability of
providers of online products and services to protect their personal information generally. As a result, they may stop using their credit cards online and
choose alternative payment methods that are not as convenient for us or
18
Table of Contents
restrict our ability to process payments without significant effort, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends, in part, on the integrity, quality, efficiency and scalability of our systems, technology and infrastructure, and those of third
parties.
We rely on our systems, technology and infrastructure to perform well on a consistent basis. From time to time in the past we have experienced (and in
the future we may experience) occasional interruptions that make some or all of this framework and related information unavailable or that prevent us from
providing products and services; any such interruption could arise for any number of reasons. We also rely on third-party data center service providers and
cloud-based, hosted web service providers, as well as third-party computer systems and a variety of communications systems and service providers in
connection with the provision of our products and services generally, as well as to facilitate and process certain payment and other transactions with users.
We have no control over any of these third parties or their operations.
The framework described above could be damaged or interrupted at any time due to fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, natural disasters, acts
of war or terrorism, acts of God and other similar events or disruptions. Any event of this nature could prevent us from providing our products and services
at all (or result in the provision of our products and services on a delayed or intermittent basis) and/or result in the loss of critical data. While we and the
third parties upon whom we rely have certain backup systems in place for certain aspects of our respective frameworks, none of our frameworks are fully
redundant and disaster recovery planning is not sufficient for all eventualities. In addition, we may not have adequate insurance coverage to compensate us
for losses from a major interruption. When such damages, interruptions or outages occur, our reputation could be harmed and the competitive positions of
our various brands and businesses could be diminished, any or all of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
We also continually work to expand and enhance the efficiency and scalability of our framework to improve the consumer and service professional
experience, accommodate substantial increases in the number of visitors to our various platforms, ensure acceptable load times for our various products and
services, and keep up with changes in technology and user preferences. If we do not do so in a timely and cost-effective manner, the user experience and
demand across our brands and businesses could be adversely affected, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
We depend on our key personnel.
Our future success depends upon our continued ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled, diverse and talented individuals,
particularly in the case of senior leadership. Competition for well-qualified employees across our various businesses has been (and is expected to continue
to be) intense, particularly in the case of senior leadership, technology and product development roles, and we must continue to attract new (and retain
existing) employees to compete effectively. While we have established programs to attract new (and retain existing) key and other employees, we may not
be able to do so in the future. If we fail to retain key and other employees, this could result in the loss of institutional knowledge and the disruption of our
day-to-day operations, which could adversely impact the effectiveness of our internal control framework and our ability (and the ability of our various
businesses) to successfully execute long term strategic initiatives and other goals. If we do not ensure the effective transfer of knowledge to successors and
smooth transitions (particularly in the case of senior leadership) by way of tailored succession plans across Angi and our various businesses, our business,
financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Risks Related to Our Relationship with IAC
IAC controls our company and will have the ability to control the direction of our business.
As of December 31, 2022, IAC owned all of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock, and 2,588,180 outstanding shares of the Company’s
Class A common stock, in total representing approximately 84.1% of our total outstanding shares of capital stock and approximately 98.1% of the total
combined voting power of our outstanding capital stock. For so long as IAC owns shares of our capital stock that represent a majority of the combined
voting power of our outstanding capital stock, it will be able to control any corporate action that requires a stockholder vote, regardless of the vote of any
other stockholder (subject to certain limited exceptions for certain class votes). As a result, IAC has (and we expect will continue to have) the ability to
control significant corporate activities, including:
•
•
the election of our board of directors (subject to certain provisions of the investor rights agreement between us and IAC) and, through our board of
directors, decision-making with respect to our business direction and policies, including the appointment and removal of our officers;
acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or assets, mergers or other business combinations;
19
Table of Contents
•
•
•
•
•
issuances of shares of our Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock and our capital structure generally;
corporate opportunities that may be suitable for us and IAC, subject to the corporate opportunity provisions in our amended and restated certificate
of incorporation (as described below);
our financing activities, including the issuance of debt securities and/or the incurrence of other indebtedness generally;
stock repurchases or the payment of one-time or recurring dividends; and
the number of shares available for issuance under our equity incentive plans.
This voting control will limit the ability of other stockholders to influence corporate matters and, as a result, we may take actions that stockholders
other than IAC do not view as beneficial. This voting control may also discourage transactions involving a change of control of our company, including
transactions in which holders of shares of our Class A common stock might otherwise receive a premium for their shares.
Even if IAC owns shares of our capital stock representing less than a majority of the total combined voting power of our outstanding capital stock, so
long as IAC owns shares representing a significant percentage of our total combined voting power, IAC will have the ability to substantially influence these
significant corporate activities.
In addition, pursuant to the investor rights agreement between us and IAC, IAC has the right to maintain its level of ownership in us to the extent we
issue additional shares of our capital stock in the future and, pursuant to the employee matters agreement between us and IAC, IAC may receive payment
for certain compensation expenses through the receipt of additional shares of our capital stock. For a more complete summary of our various agreements
with IAC, see “Note 14-Related Party Transactions with IAC” to the consolidated financial statements included in “Item 8-Consolidated Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Until such time as IAC no longer controls or has the ability to substantially influence us, we will continue to face the risks described in this “Risk
Factors” section relating to IAC’s control of us and the potential conflicts of interest between us and IAC.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation could prevent us from benefiting from certain corporate opportunities.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation has a “corporate opportunity” provision that requires us to renounce any interests or expectancy
in corporate opportunities for both us and IAC. This provision also includes a disclaimer that states that we recognize that: (i) any of our directors or
officers who are also officers, directors, employees or other affiliates of IAC or its affiliates (except that we and our subsidiaries are not considered
affiliates of IAC or its affiliates for purposes of this provision) and (ii) IAC itself, will have no duty to offer or communicate information regarding such
corporate opportunities to us. Generally, neither IAC nor any of our officers or directors who are also officers or directors of IAC or its affiliates will be
liable to us or any of our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of the fact that any such person pursues or acquires any corporate
opportunity for the account of IAC or any of its affiliates, directs or transfers such corporate opportunity to IAC or any of its affiliates or does not
communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to us. This corporate opportunity provision may exacerbate conflicts of interest between us
and IAC because the provision effectively permits any of our directors or officers who also serves as a director or officer of IAC to choose to direct a
corporate opportunity to IAC instead of us.
IAC’s interests may conflict with our interests and the interests of our other stockholders. Conflicts of interest between us and IAC could be resolved in
a manner unfavorable to us and our other stockholders.
Various conflicts of interest between us and IAC could arise. As of the date of this report, six of our eleven directors are nominated by IAC and four of
our eleven directors are current directors or executive officers of IAC. Ownership interests of these individuals and IAC in our capital stock and ownership
interests of our directors and officers in IAC capital stock, or service by an individual as either a director and/or officer of both companies, could create or
appear to create potential conflicts of interest when such individuals are faced with decisions relating to us. These decisions could include:
•
•
•
corporate opportunities;
the impact that operating or capital decisions (including the incurrence of indebtedness) relating to our business may have on IAC's consolidated
financial statements and/or current or future indebtedness (including related covenants);
business combinations involving us;
20
Table of Contents
•
our dividend and stock repurchase policies;
• management stock ownership; and
•
the intercompany agreements and services between us and IAC.
Potential conflicts of interest could also arise if we decide to enter into new commercial arrangements with IAC in the future or in connection with
IAC’s desire to enter into new commercial arrangements with third parties. Additionally, IAC may be constrained by the terms of agreements relating to its
indebtedness from taking actions, or permitting us to take actions, that may be in our best interest.
Furthermore, disputes may arise between us and IAC relating to our past and ongoing relationships, and these potential conflicts of interest may make
it more difficult for us to favorably resolve such disputes, including those related to: tax, employee benefit, indemnification and other matters arising from
the Combination; the nature, quality and pricing of services IAC agrees to provide to us; sales or other disposals by IAC of all or a portion of its ownership
interest in us; and business combinations involving us.
We may not be able to resolve any potential conflicts, and even if we do, the resolution may be less favorable to us than if we were dealing with an
unaffiliated third-party. While we are controlled by IAC, we may not have the leverage to negotiate amendments to our various agreements with IAC (if
required) on terms as favorable to us as those we would negotiate with an unaffiliated third-party.
We rely on exemptions from certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements that provide protection to stockholders of other companies.
Because IAC owns more than 50% of the combined voting power of our outstanding capital stock, we are a “controlled company” under the
Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the “Marketplace Rules”). As a “controlled company,” we are exempt from compliance with certain
Marketplace Rules related to corporate governance, including that a majority of our board of directors consists of “independent directors” (as defined in the
Marketplace Rules) and that we have a nominating/governance committee composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the
committee’s purpose and responsibilities.
Accordingly, for so long as we are a “controlled company” and avail ourselves of these exemptions, our stockholders will not have the same
protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the Marketplace Rules.
IAC’s desire to maintain flexibility with respect to its ability to distribute the shares of our capital stock it holds on a tax-free basis to its stockholders,
and its desire to preserve the ability to maintain tax consolidation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, may prevent us from pursuing opportunities to
raise capital, acquire other businesses or provide equity incentives to our employees, or otherwise impact our ability to manage our capital structure.
Under current laws, IAC must retain beneficial ownership of at least 80% of our combined voting power and 80% of each class of our non-voting
capital stock (if any is outstanding) in order to effect a tax-free distribution of our shares held by IAC to its stockholders. IAC has advised us that it does
not have any present intention or plans to undertake such a tax-free distribution. However, IAC does currently intend to use its majority voting interest to
retain its ability to engage in such a transaction. In addition, IAC must maintain ownership of at least 80% of our outstanding capital stock in order to
maintain tax consolidation with us for U.S. federal income tax purposes. IAC has advised us that it currently intends to take such actions, or cause the
Company to take such actions, as may be necessary in order to preserve tax consolidation. Each of these intentions may cause IAC not to support
transactions that we wish to pursue that involve issuing shares of our capital stock, including for capital-raising purposes, as consideration for an
acquisition or as equity incentives to our employees, or otherwise impact our overall capital management strategy. Our inability to pursue such transactions,
or any reduced flexibility in the management of our capital structure, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our agreements with IAC will require us to indemnify IAC for certain tax liabilities and may limit our ability to engage in desirable strategic or capital-
raising transactions.
Pursuant to our tax sharing agreement with IAC, we generally will be responsible and will be required to indemnify IAC for: (i) all taxes imposed with
respect to any consolidated, combined or unitary tax return of IAC or its subsidiaries that includes us or any of our subsidiaries to the extent attributable to
us or any of our subsidiaries (excluding certain taxes attributable to Angi and its subsidiaries for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before
the completion of the Combination), as determined under the tax sharing agreement, and (ii) all taxes imposed with respect to any consolidated, combined,
unitary or separate tax returns of ours or any of our subsidiaries. To the extent IAC fails to pay taxes imposed with respect to any consolidated, combined or
unitary tax return of IAC or one of its subsidiaries that includes us or any of our subsidiaries, the
21
Table of Contents
relevant taxing authority could seek to collect such taxes (including taxes for which IAC is responsible under the tax sharing agreement) from us or our
subsidiaries.
IAC does not have a present plan or intention to undertake a tax-free spin-off of its interest in us. Under the tax sharing agreement, we generally will
be responsible for any taxes and related amounts imposed on IAC or us (or our respective subsidiaries) that arise from the failure of a future spin-off of
IAC’s retained interest in us to qualify as a transaction that is generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 368(a)(1)(D) and/or
Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent that the failure to so qualify is attributable to: (i) a breach of the
relevant representations and covenants made by us in the tax sharing agreement (or any representation letter provided in support of any tax opinion or
ruling obtained by IAC with respect to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of such spin-off), (ii) an acquisition of our equity securities or assets or (iii)
any other action or inaction by us after any such spin-off.
To preserve the tax-free treatment of any potential future spin-off by IAC of its interest in us, the tax sharing agreement restricts us and our
subsidiaries, for the two-year period following any such spin-off (except in specific circumstances), from: (i) entering into any transaction pursuant to
which shares of our capital stock would be acquired above a certain threshold, (ii) merging, consolidating or liquidating, (iii) selling or transferring assets
above certain thresholds, (iv) redeeming or repurchasing stock (with certain exceptions), (v) altering the voting rights of our capital stock, (vi) actions and
inactions that are inconsistent with representations or covenants in any tax opinion or private letter ruling document or (vii) ceasing to engage in any active
trade or business as defined in the Code. The indemnity obligations and other limitations under the tax sharing agreement could have an adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Future sales or distributions of shares of our capital stock by IAC could depress the price of our Class A common stock.
IAC has the right to sell or distribute to its stockholders all or a portion of the shares of our capital stock that it holds. Although as of the date of this
report IAC has advised us that it does not have any present intention or plans to undertake such a sale or distribution, sales by IAC in the public market or
distributions to its stockholders of substantial amounts of our capital stock (shares of Class B common stock or Class A common stock) could depress the
price of our Class A common stock. In addition, IAC has the right, subject to certain conditions, to require us to file registration statements covering the
sale of the shares of our capital stock it holds or to include such shares in other registration statements that we may file. If IAC exercises these registration
rights and sells all or a portion of the shares of our capital stock it holds, the price of our Class A common stock could decline.
The services that IAC provides to us may not be sufficient to meet our needs.
We expect IAC to continue to provide us with corporate and shared services related to corporate functions, such as executive oversight, risk
management, information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, tax, treasury and other services in exchange for the fees specified in the
services agreement between us and IAC. Since the services agreement automatically renews for one (1) year periods for as long as IAC holds a majority of
the outstanding shares of our common stock, we may not be able to modify these services in a manner desirable to us as a standalone public company.
Although we intend to replace portions of the services currently provided by IAC, we may not be able to perform these services ourselves and/or find
appropriate third parties to do so at a reasonable cost (or at costs at or below those charged by IAC), which could adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Indebtedness
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service our indebtedness.
Our ability to satisfy our debt obligations will depend upon, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected
by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from our operations to meet our scheduled debt obligations. If so, we could be forced to reduce or
delay capital expenditures, sell assets or seek additional capital in a manner that complies with the terms (including certain restrictions and limitations) of
our current indebtedness. If these efforts do not generate sufficient funds to meet our scheduled debt obligations, we would need to seek additional
financing and/or negotiate with our bondholders to restructure or refinance our indebtedness. Our ability to do so would depend on the condition of the
capital markets and our financial condition at such time. Any such financing, restructuring or refinancing could be on less favorable terms than those
governing our current indebtedness and would need to comply with the terms (including certain restrictions and limitations) of our existing indebtedness.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock
The multiclass structure of our capital stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with IAC and limiting the ability of holders of our Class A
common stock to influence corporate matters.
22
Table of Contents
Each share of our Class B common stock has ten votes per share and each share of our Class A common stock has one vote per share. As of December
31, 2022, IAC owned all of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock, and 2,588,180 outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock,
in total representing approximately 84.1% of our total outstanding shares of capital stock and approximately 98.1% of the total combined voting power of
our outstanding capital stock. Due to the ten-to-one voting ratio between our Class B common stock and Class A common stock, IAC (and any future
holders of our Class B common stock, collectively) will continue to control a substantial majority of the combined voting power of our capital stock. This
concentrated control will significantly limit the ability of holders of our Class A common stock to influence matters submitted to our stockholders for
approval.
The difference in the voting rights of our Class B common stock and Class A common stock may harm the value and liquidity of our Class A common
stock.
This difference in voting rights between our Class B common stock and Class A common stock could harm the value of our Class A common stock to
the extent that any investor or potential future purchaser of our Class A common stock ascribes value to the right of the holders of our Class B common
stock to ten votes per share. The existence of two classes of common stock with different voting rights could result in less liquidity for our Class A
common stock than if there were only one class of common stock, which could adversely affect the price of our Class A common stock.
The Delaware General Corporation Law and certain provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage,
delay or prevent a change of control of our company and/or changes in our management.
The Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that
could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our Company and/or changes in our management that our stockholders may deem advantageous,
including provisions that: (i) authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock, which our board of directors could issue to discourage a takeover
attempt; (ii) limit the ability of our stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders; and (iii) provide that our board of directors is expressly authorized
to make, alter or repeal our bylaws.
Any provision of the DGCL or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in
control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a related premium for their Class A common stock and could also affect the price that
some investors are willing to pay for our Class A common stock.
The choice of forum provision in our amended and restated bylaws could limit the ability of our stockholders to obtain the judicial forum of their
choice for certain disputes.
Our amended and restated bylaws provide that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, a state court within the State of
Delaware (or, if no state court located within Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) will be the sole and exclusive
forum for all of the following actions: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim for (or based on breach
of) fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers or other employees to us or to our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim
against us or any of our current or former directors, officers or other employees pursuant to the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws, (iv)
any action asserting a claim relating to or involving us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine or (v) any action asserting an “internal corporate
claim” (as defined under the DGCL). This choice of forum provision may limit the ability of our stockholders to bring claims in a judicial forum that they
find favorable for disputes with us or our current or former directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a
court were to find our choice of forum provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we could incur additional costs associated with resolving
such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
Not applicable.
Item 2. Properties
We believe that the facilities for our management and operations are generally adequate for our current and near-term future needs. Our facilities, most
of which are leased, consist of executive and administrative offices, sales offices and data centers. We do not anticipate any future problems renewing or
obtaining suitable leases for us or any of our businesses. We currently lease approximately 152,000 square feet of office for our corporate headquarters,
Angi business and administrative and sales force personnel in Denver, Colorado.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Overview
23
Table of Contents
In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are (or may become) parties to claims, suits, regulatory and government
investigations, and other proceedings involving property, personal injury, intellectual property, privacy, tax, labor and employment, competition,
commercial disputes, consumer protection and other claims, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. Such claims,
suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings could result in fines, civil or criminal penalties, or other adverse consequences. The
amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be
predicted with certainty, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings the outcome of which, we believe, if
determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the description of material pending legal proceedings (other than ordinary, routine litigation
incident to the registrant’s business) and advise that proceedings ordinarily need not be described if they primarily involve damages claims for amounts
(exclusive of interest and costs) not exceeding 10% of the current assets of the registrant and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In the judgment of
Company management, none of the pending litigation matters which we are defending, including those described below, involves or is likely to involve
amounts of that magnitude. The matters described below involve issues or claims that may be of particular interest to our stockholders, regardless of
whether they may be material to our financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
FTC Administrative Proceeding against HomeAdvisor
On March 11, 2022, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) filed an administrative complaint against HomeAdvisor, alleging that certain of
HomeAdvisor’s business practices related to leads provided to service professionals (“SPs”) and its mHelpDesk product are unfair or deceptive in violation
of the FTC Act and requesting injunctive relief. The Company disputes these allegations and believes that its business practices are fully in compliance
with the law. On April 7, 2022, the FTC staff filed a motion for summary decision before the Commission, which the Commissioners denied on August 2,
2022. Settlement discussions between the parties ensued. On December 2, 2022, the FTC withdrew the matter from adjudication for the purpose of
considering a proposed consent order negotiated by the Company and the FTC staff. Under the proposed consent order, HomeAdvisor would undertake
certain commitments concerning representations to SPs and related reporting obligations and would fund up to $7.2 million for restitutionary payments to
SPs (with any unclaimed amounts reverting to HomeAdvisor) and settlement administration costs. On January 23, 2023, the Commission accepted the
proposed consent order, subject to a public-comment period that will end on March 8, 2023.
Service Professional Class Action Litigation against HomeAdvisor
In July 2016, a putative class action, Airquip, Inc. et al. v. HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. 1:16-cv-1849, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the
District of Colorado. The complaint, as amended in November 2016, alleges that HomeAdvisor engages in certain deceptive practices affecting the service
professionals (“SPs”) who join its network, including charging them for substandard customer leads and failing to disclose certain charges. The complaint
seeks certification of a nationwide class consisting of all HomeAdvisor SPs since October 2012, asserts claims for fraud, breach of implied contract, unjust
enrichment and violation of the federal RICO statute and the Colorado Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”), and seeks injunctive relief and damages in an
unspecified amount.
In July 2018, the plaintiffs’ counsel filed a separate putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, Costello et al. v.
HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. 1:18-cv-1802, on behalf of the same nine SPs proposed as new plaintiffs in the Airquip case, naming as defendants
HomeAdvisor, Angi and IAC (as well as an unrelated company), and asserting 45 claims largely duplicative of those asserted in a proposed second
amended complaint in the Airquip case. In November 2018, the judge presiding over the Airquip case issued an order consolidating the two cases to
proceed before him under the caption In re HomeAdvisor, Inc. Litigation.
In January 2019, the plaintiffs renewed their motion for leave to file a consolidated second amended complaint, naming as defendants, in addition to
HomeAdvisor, Angi and IAC, CraftJack, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and thus, an entity affiliated with HomeAdvisor) and two
unrelated entities. In February 2019, the defendants opposed the motion on various grounds. In September 2019, the court issued an order granting the
plaintiffs’ motion. In October and December 2019, the four defendants affiliated with HomeAdvisor filed motions to dismiss certain claims in the amended
complaint. In September 2020, the court issued an order granting in part and denying in part the defendants’ motions to dismiss. On May 5, 2022, the
plaintiffs moved for class certification. On June 27, 2022, the Company opposed the plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, which remains pending.
The Company believes that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.

False Advertising Litigation against HomeAdvisor
In March 2018, the San Francisco District Attorney filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of California, People of the State of California v.
HomeAdvisor, Inc., No. CGC-18-565008. The lawsuit alleges that HomeAdvisor violated California’s Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law
by misleading California consumers about the scope of its background check program. The claims focus on certain television commercials, radio
advertisements, and website disclosures during the 2014-18 period. In May 2018, the court issued a preliminary injunction against the Company barring it
from airing the then-current versions of the advertisements. In May 2020, the state Court of Appeals affirmed the preliminary injunction. The trial court
recently set a trial date of April 3, 2023. The Company believes that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously
against them.

Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
PART II
Our Class A common stock is quoted on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) under the ticker symbol “ANGI.” There is no established
public trading market for our Class B common stock.
As of February 10, 2023, there were 32 holders of record of our Class A common stock. Because the substantial majority of the outstanding shares of
our Class A common stock are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of shareholders, we are not able to estimate the total number of beneficial
shareholders represented by these record holders. As of February 10, 2023, there was one holder of record and beneficial shareholder of our Class B
common stock.
Dividends
We do not currently expect that any cash or other dividends will be paid to holders of our Class A or Class B common stock in the near future. Any
future cash dividend or other dividend declarations are subject to the determination of the Company’s Board of Directors.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
There were no unregistered sales of our capital stock during the quarter ended December 31, 2022.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company did not purchase any shares of its Class A common stock during the quarter ended December 31, 2022. As of that date, 15.0 million
shares of ANGI Class A common stock remained available for repurchase under the Company's previously announced March 2020 repurchase
authorization. The Company may repurchase shares pursuant to this repurchase authorization over an indefinite period of time in the open market and in
privately negotiated transactions, depending on those factors Company management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation,
market conditions, share price and future outlook. From January 1, 2023 through February 10, 2023, the Company did not repurchase and shares. As of
February 10, 2023, there were approximately 15.0 million shares remaining in the March 2020 share repurchase authorization.

GENERAL
Management Overview
Angi Inc. (“Angi,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) connects quality home service professionals with consumers across more than 500 different
categories, from repairing and remodeling homes to cleaning and landscaping. As of December 31, 2022, Angi had a network of approximately 220,000
transacting service professionals, each of whom paid for consumer matches and/or performed a job sourced or booked through Ads and Leads and/or
Services. Collectively, this service professional network provided services in more than 167 top categories, ranging from cleaning and installation services
to simple home repairs and larger home remodeling projects, and 64 discrete geographic areas in the United States. Additionally, consumers turned to at
least one of our brands to find a professional for approximately 29 million projects during the year ended December 31, 2022.
The Company has four operating segments: (i) Ads and Leads; (ii) Services; (iii) Roofing; and (iv) International (Europe and Canada) and operates
under multiple brands including Angi, HomeAdvisor, Handy, Total Home Roofing, and Angi Roofing. Roofing includes the business the Company
acquired on July 1, 2021 known as Total Home Roofing.
Ads and Leads provides service professionals the capability to engage with potential customers, including quote and invoicing services, and provides
consumers with tools and resources to help them find local, pre-screened and customer-rated service professionals nationwide for home repair, maintenance
and improvement projects. Consumers can request household
26
Table of Contents
services directly through the Angi platform and Angi fulfills the request through the use of independently established home services providers engaged in a
trade, occupation and/or business that customarily provides such services. The matching and pre-priced booking services and related tools and directories
are provided to consumers free of charge. Roofing provides roof replacement and repair services through its wholly-owned subsidiary Angi Roofing, LLC.
In the U.S., the Company primarily markets its services to consumers through search engine marketing, affiliate agreements with third parties, and
television advertising. The Company also markets its services to consumers through email, digital display advertisements, partnerships with other
contextually related websites and, to a lesser extent, through relationships with certain retailers, direct mail and radio advertising. The Company markets
subscription packages and time-based advertising to service professionals primarily through its sales force, as well as through search engine marketing,
digital media advertising, and direct relationships with trade associations and manufacturers. We have made, and expect to continue to make, substantial
investments in digital and traditional advertising (with continued expansion into new and existing digital platforms) to consumers and service professionals
to promote our products and services and to drive traffic to our various platforms and service professionals.
27
Table of Contents
Defined Terms and Operating Metrics:
Unless otherwise indicated or as the context otherwise requires, certain terms, which include the principal operating metrics we use in managing our
business, are defined below:
• Ads and Leads Revenue primarily reflects domestic ads and leads revenue, including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches,
revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and
consumers.
•
Services Revenue primarily reflects domestic revenue from pre-priced offerings by which the consumer requests services through a Company
platform and the Company engages a service professional to perform the service.
• Roofing Revenue primarily reflects revenue from the roof replacement business offering by which the consumer purchases services directly
from the Company and the Company engages a service professional to perform the service.
• Corporate primarily reflects costs for corporate initiatives, shared costs, such as executive and public company costs, and other expenses not
allocated to the operating segments.
•
•
International Revenue primarily reflects revenue generated within the International segment (comprised of businesses in Europe and Canada),
including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
Service Requests are (i) fully completed and submitted domestic service requests for connections with Ads and Leads service professionals, (ii)
contacts to Ads and Leads service professionals generated via the service professional directory from unique users in unique categories (such that
multiple contacts from the same user in the same category in the same day are counted as one Service Request) and (iii) requests to book Services
jobs in the period.
• Monetized Transactions are (i) Service Requests that are matched to a paying Ads and Leads service professional in the period and (ii) completed and
in-process Services jobs in the period; a single Service Request can result in multiple monetized transactions.
•
•
Transacting Service Professionals (“Transacting SPs”) are the number of (i) Ads and Leads service professionals that paid for consumer
matches or advertising and (ii) Services service professionals that performed a Services job, during the most recent quarter.
Senior Notes - On August 20, 2020, ANGI Group, LLC (“ANGI Group”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $500.0
million of its 3.875% Senior Notes due August 15, 2028, with interest payable February 15 and August 15 of each year, which commenced
February 15, 2021.
Components of Results of Operations
Sources of Revenue
Ads and Leads Revenue is primarily derived from (i) consumer connection revenue, which is comprised of fees paid by service professionals for
consumer matches (regardless of whether the service professional ultimately provides the requested service), (ii) advertising revenue, which includes
revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising, and (iii) membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
Consumer connection revenue varies based upon several factors including the service requested, product experience offered, and geographic location of
service. Services is primarily comprised of revenue from jobs sourced directly through the platform and through retail partnerships and completed by a
service professional assigned by our platform. Roofing is comprised of revenue from roofing projects. International is primarily comprised of revenue from
consumer connection revenue for consumer matches and membership subscription from service professionals and consumers.
From January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022, Services recorded revenue on a gross basis. Effective January 1, 2023, Angi Inc. modified the
Services terms and conditions so that the service professional, rather than Angi, Inc., has the contractual relationship with the consumer to deliver the
service and our performance obligation to the consumer is to connect them with
28
Table of Contents
the service professional. This change in contractual terms requires net revenue accounting treatment effective January 1, 2023. There is no impact to
operating income or Adjusted EBITDA.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
Cost of revenue, which excludes depreciation, consists primarily of (i) payments made to independent service professionals who perform work
contracted under Services or Roofing arrangements, (ii) credit card processing fees, (iii) hosting fees, and (iv) roofing materials costs associated with
Roofing.
Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue. Gross margin is gross profit expressed as a percentage of revenue.
Operating Costs and Expenses:
•
Selling and marketing expense - consists primarily of (i) advertising expenditures, which include marketing fees to promote the brand to
consumers and service professionals with (a) online marketing, including fees paid to search engines and other online marketing platforms,
partners who direct traffic to our brands, and app platforms, (b) offline marketing, which is primarily television and radio advertising, (ii)
compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for our sales force and marketing
personnel, (iii) software license and maintenance costs, (iv) outsourced personnel costs, and (v) facilities costs.
• General and administrative expense - consists primarily of (i) compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other
employee-related costs for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax, human resources and customer service functions, (ii)
fees for professional services (including transaction-related costs related to acquisitions), (iii) provision for credit losses, (iv) software license and
maintenance costs, (v) outsourced personnel costs for personnel engaged in assisting in customer service functions, and (vi) facilities costs. Our
customer service function includes personnel who provide support to our service professionals and consumers.
•
Product development expense - consists primarily of (i) compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other
employee-related costs that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, development, testing and enhancement of product offerings
and related technology and (ii) software license and maintenance costs.
Non-GAAP financial measure
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a non-GAAP financial measure. See
“Principles of Financial Reporting” for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net loss attributable to Angi Inc. shareholders to
operating loss to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020.
Services Investment
Services was launched in August 2019, and we invested significantly since its inception through 2022. As previously disclosed, our investment in
Services peaked in the first quarter of 2022 and we’ve seen both positive and negative trends on profits from the Services offerings since inception. We
expect a positive year-over-year trend to continue through 2023 as we focus on less complex services and more profitable business offerings.
Brand Integration Initiative
In March 2021, the Company 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.
29
Table of Contents
We rely heavily on free, or organic, search results from search engine optimization, and paid search engine marketing to drive traffic to our websites.
Our brand integration initiative initially adversely affected the placement and ranking of Angi Inc. websites, particularly Angi.com, in organic search
results. Organic search results have been declining year-over-year and 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 our search engine marketing efforts. We 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 we do expect the trend of declining traffic to continue due to sustained marketing emphasis in favor of Angi.
COVID-19 Update
The COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption. Recently, there has been a
return to more normal societal interactions, including the way we operate our business. We cannot predict the future impacts of this ongoing and any new
pandemic(s). See Part 1, Item 1A: "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details.

For the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021
Ads and Leads revenue increased $55.0 million, or 4%, due primarily to an increase in consumer connection revenue of $56.3 million, or 6%,
primarily as a result of price increases implemented during the second quarter of 2022 and increase in advertising revenue driven by a growth in sales.
Services revenue increased $91.3 million, or 31%, due primarily to an increase in average revenue per Monetized Transaction due to higher average-

categories.

Ads and Leads revenue increased $8.3 million, or 1%, due primarily to an increase in advertising revenue of $25.7 million, or 11%, partially offset by

Ads and Leads selling and marketing expense increased $11.9 million, or 2%, driven by increases in advertising expense of $20.9 million and software
maintenance costs of $3.5 million partially offset by a decrease in compensation expense of $10.3 million. The increase in advertising expense was due
primarily to an increase of $23.3 million in online marketing spend. The increase in online marketing spend was primarily due to lower organic traffic and
increased cost per service request. The increase in software maintenance costs was due primarily to general maintenance. The decrease in compensation is
primarily due to a decrease in headcount.
Services selling and marketing expense increased $13.6 million, or 22%, driven by increases of $17.6 million in compensation expense, $3.7 million in
professional fees and $1.6 million of software maintenance costs, partially offset by a decrease $9.5 million of advertising expense. The increase of
compensation expense was due primarily to an increase in headcount. The increase in professional fees is primarily from an increase of $4.1 million in
outsourced personnel costs for improving the customer service experience offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in consulting costs primarily due to fees paid
in 2021 that were a part of the investment in Services in 2021. The increase in software maintenance costs was due primarily to general maintenance. The
decrease in advertising expense was primarily due to a decrease of $6.7 million in service professional marketing spend and $2.7 million search engine
marketing spend primarily due to high advertising costs in 2021 to promote Services.
Roofing selling and marketing expense increased $19.0 million, or 136%, driven by a full year of expenses compared to only two quarters in 2021.
33
Table of Contents
Corporate selling and marketing expense decreased $4.9 million, or 55%, driven by a decrease in lease expense of $5.4 million. The decrease in lease
expense is a result of the Company repurposing its real estate space for general and administrative functions and reducing its real estate footprint in 2021.
International selling and marketing expense decreased $1.8 million, or 4%, driven by a decrease in compensation expense of $1.6 million, which was
primarily due to lower headcount.
For the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020
Ads and Leads selling and marketing expense increased $77.7 million, or 11%, driven by an increase in advertising expense of $60.3 million and an
increase in compensation expense of $30.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in lease expense of $11.6 million and the disposition of a business
decreasing expense by $3.1 million. The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to increases of $49.6 million in online marketing spend and $9.7
million in television spend. The increase in online marketing spend was attributable to the Company’s transition to new brands and domains. The increase
in television spend in 2021 reflects the normalization of spending levels as compared to the cost cutting initiatives during 2020 due to the impact of
COVID-19. The increase in compensation expense was due primarily to increased commission expense. The decrease in lease expense is primarily due to
new alignment and repurposing of lease locations in 2021.
Services selling and marketing expense increased $21.7 million, or 55%, driven by an increase in consulting fees of $9.1 million, an increase in
compensation expense of $7.0 million, and an increase in advertising expense of $4.1 million. The increase in consulting costs was due primarily to various
sales initiatives. The increase in compensation expense was due to an increase in sales force headcount. The increase in advertising expense was due
primarily to an increase of $3.9 million in online marketing spend attributable to the brand integration, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in television
spend.
Roofing was acquired on July 1, 2021 and contributed $14.0 million in selling and marketing expense.
Corporate selling and marketing expense increased $8.9 million, driven by an increase in lease expense of $8.0 million. The increase in lease expense
is primarily due to new alignment and repurposing of lease locations in 2021.
International selling and marketing expense increased $0.7 million, or 2%, driven by an increase in advertising expense of $2.5 million, partially offset
by a decrease in compensation expense of $1.6 million. The increase in advertising expense was due, in part, to decreased advertising expense in 2020 to
mitigate the negative impact of COVID-19 on revenue. The decrease in compensation expense was primarily due to severance costs recorded in 2020
associated with headcount reductions in France and lower headcount in 2021.

For the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021
Ads and Leads general and administrative expense increased $23.7 million, or 9%, due primarily to an increase of $16.4 million in provision for credit
losses, $6.6 million in outsourced personnel costs, and $5.7 million in legal expense, partially offset by a decrease of $2.9 million in compensation expense.
The increase in the provision for credit losses is due primarily to revenue growth. The increase in outsourced personnel costs is due primarily to the use of
outsourced firms to support customer service needs. The increase in legal expense is primarily due to certain legal matters in the third and fourth quarters of
2022. The decrease in compensation expense is due to a $7.4 million decrease primarily due to lower headcount, offset with a $4.5 million increase in
stock-based compensation.
Services general and administrative expense increased $27.8 million, or 71%, due primarily to an increase of $19.1 million in compensation expense,
$5.3 million in professional fees, and $2.2 million in software license and maintenance expense. The increase in compensation expense is primarily due to
an increase of $10.5 million in stock-based compensation expense and $8.6 million in wage-related expense from higher headcount. The increase in stock-
based compensation expense is primarily due to management departures in the fourth quarter of 2022 and new awards granted. The increase in professional
fees is due

primarily to an increase in legal expense of $6.0 million due to certain legal matters in the current quarter. The increase in software license and maintenance
expense is due primarily to general maintenance.
Roofing general and administrative expense increased $16.2 million, or 149%, due primarily to a full year of expenses incurred compared to only two
quarters in 2021.
Corporate general and administrative expense increased $9.3 million, or 20%, due primarily to increases of $14.4 million in compensation expense and
$1.5 million of software license and maintenance expense, partially offset by a decrease of $4.4 million in lease expense. The increase in compensation
expense is due to an increase of $12.9 million in wage-related expense from higher headcount and $1.6 million in stock-based compensation expense. The
increase in stock-based compensation expense is the result of the reversal of previously recognized stock-based compensation as a result of the forfeiture of
unvested awards due to management departures in the first quarter of 2021, management departures in the third quarter of 2022, and new awards granted in
2022. The increase in software license and maintenance expense is due primarily to increased spend on software to support our customer service function.
The decrease in lease expense was due primarily to a decrease in impairments of right-of-use assets and related leasehold improvements, furniture, and
equipment from the Company reducing its real estate footprint in 2021.
International general and administrative expense decreased $8.6 million, or 20%, due primarily to a 2021 charge of $7.0 million in compensation
expense related to the acquisition of an additional interest in our MyBuilder business at a premium to fair value.
For the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020
Ads and Leads general and administrative expense increased $32.5 million, or 14%, driven by an increase in $9.7 million of outsourced personnel
costs, compensation expense of $9.4 million, professional fees expense of $6.2 million, and software license and maintenance expense of $5.7 million,
partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in the provision for credit losses. The increase in outsourced personnel costs is primarily due to an increase in
call volume related to our customer booking assistance function. The increase in compensation expense is due to annual wage and headcount increases. The
increase in professional fees is due primarily to an increase in legal and recruiting fees. The increase in software license and maintenance expense is due
primarily to increased investment in software to support our customer services function.
Services general and administrative expense increased $16.2 million, or 70%, driven by an increase in the provision for credit losses of $7.8 million,
outsourced personnel costs of $6.6 million, and professional fees expense of $3.3 million. The increase in the provision for credit losses is primarily due to
higher revenue as the provision for credit losses as a percentage of revenue has remained relatively flat. The increase in outsourced personnel costs is
primarily due to an increase in call volume related to our customer booking assistance function. The increase in professional fees is due primarily to an
increase in legal fees.
Roofing was acquired on July 1, 2021 and contributed $10.8 million in general and administrative expense.
Corporate general and administrative expense decreased $37.3 million, or 44%, driven by decreases in compensation expense of $53.3 million,
partially offset by increases of $9.6 million in one-time costs related to the Company reducing its real estate footprint in 2021, lease expense of $5.0 million
and professional fees of $1.5 million. The decrease in compensation expense is due to a $50.6 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense. The
decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to $30.8 million in stock appreciation rights expense recognized during the twelve
months ended December 31, 2020, which was not incurred in 2021 as the awards became fully vested in 2020, and a net decrease of $7.7 million due to the
reversal of previously recognized expense related to unvested awards that were forfeited due to management departures in the first quarter of 2021,
partially offset by the issuance of new equity awards since 2020. The real estate related costs are the result of impairments of right-of-use assets associated
with office space we vacated.
International general and administrative expense increased $9.5 million, or 28%, due primarily to a charge of $7.0 million in compensation expenses
related to the acquisition of an additional 25% interest in our MyBuilder business at a premium to fair value and a $1.8 million increase in professional fees
related to corporate restructuring.

compensation expense is primarily due to certain departments’ headcount that were previously included within product development now being aligned to
general and administrative functions in 2022. The increase in outsourced personnel costs is primarily due to an increase in costs for IT support. The
increase in software license and maintenance expense is due primarily to increased spend on software licensing.

In 2022, the effective income tax rate was lower than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to unbenefited realized losses, nondeductible stock-based
compensation expense, and foreign income subject to tax in the United States, partially offset by research credits.
In 2021, the effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and
vesting of stock-based awards and a change in judgment about the valuation allowance at the beginning of the year, partially offset by unbenefited foreign
losses.

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

consolidated financial statements included in “Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded from Our Non-GAAP Measure
Stock-based compensation expense consists of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock options, performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”) and market-based awards. 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. PSUs and market-based awards are included only to the extent the
applicable performance or market condition(s) have been met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period). The
Company is currently settling all stock-based awards on a net basis and remits the required tax-withholding amounts from its current funds.

Table of Contents
Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our 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 service professional relationships, technology,
memberships, customer lists and user base, and trade names, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired
indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization. An impairment is
recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the
acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairments of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not
ongoing costs of doing business.

Net cash provided by operating activities consists of earnings adjusted for non-cash items and the effect of changes in working capital. Non-cash
adjustments include provision for credit losses, depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, impairment of goodwill, non-cash lease expense,
amortization of intangibles, foreign currency transaction losses, and deferred income taxes.
2022
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $108.2 million of provision for credit losses, $78.3 million of depreciation, $52.7 million of stock-based
compensation expense, $26.0 million for goodwill impairment, $15.1 million of non-cash lease expense, and $14.4 million of amortization of intangibles,
and $3.4 million for foreign currency transaction losses, partially offset by $21.6 million of deferred income taxes. The decrease from changes in working
capital consists primarily of an increase of $116.5 million in accounts receivable, a decrease of $17.3 million in operating lease liabilities, and a decrease of
$2.8 million in deferred revenue, partially offset by an increase of $11.6 million in accounts payable and other liabilities, and an increase of $3.2 million in
income taxes payable and receivable. The increase in accounts receivable is due primarily to revenue growth, primarily attributable to Services. The
decrease in operating lease liabilities is due to cash payments on leases net of interest accretion. The decrease in deferred revenue is due to lower annual
membership count. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is due primarily to increases in accrued expenses related to the brand integration
and accrued roofing material costs related to Roofing. The increase in income taxes payable and receivable is due primarily to accrual of taxes in excess of
payments.
Net cash used in investing activities includes $116.4 million of capital expenditures, primarily related to investments in capitalized software to support
the Company’s products and services.

Table of Contents
Net cash used in financing activities includes $8.8 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that
were net settled and $8.1 million for the repurchase of 1.0 million shares of Angi Inc. Class A common stock, on a settlement date basis, at an average price
of $7.80 per share.
2021
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $88.1 million of provision for credit losses, $59.2 million of depreciation, $28.7 million of stock-based
compensation expense, $20.7 million of non-cash lease expense, $16.4 million of amortization of intangibles, and $1.7 million in foreign currency
transaction losses, partially offset by $36.3 million of deferred income taxes. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of an
increase of $114.1 million in accounts receivable, and a decrease of $16.8 million in operating lease liabilities, partially offset by an increase of $21.3
million in accounts payable and other liabilities. The increase in accounts receivable is due primarily to revenue growth, primarily attributable to Services.
The decrease in operating lease liabilities is due to cash payments on leases net of interest accretion. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is
due primarily to increases in accrued advertising and related payables and accrued roofing material costs related to Roofing.
Net cash used in investing activities includes $70.2 million of capital expenditures, primarily related to investments in capitalized software to support
the Company’s products and services, and $25.6 million of cash principally related to the acquisition of Roofing, partially offset by proceeds of $50.0
million from the maturities of marketable debt securities.
Net cash used in financing activities includes $220.0 million for the prepayment of the ANGI Group Term Loan, which otherwise would have matured
on November 5, 2023, $61.9 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, $35.4
million for the repurchase of 3.2 million shares of Angi Inc. Class A common stock, on a settlement date basis, at an average price of $11.06 per share, and
$27.9 million for the purchase of redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Share Repurchase Authorizations and Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares, on a trade date basis, of its common stock at an average price
of $7.80 per share, or $8.1 million in aggregate. The Company has 15.0 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization as of February 10,
2023. The Company may purchase their shares and debt instruments over an indefinite period of time on the open market and in privately negotiated
transactions, depending on those factors the Company’s management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market
conditions, share price and future outlook.
Outstanding Stock-based Awards
The Company may settle equity awards on a gross or a net basis depending upon factors deemed relevant at the time, and if settled on a net basis, Angi
remits withholding taxes on behalf of the employee. At IAC’s option, certain Angi stock appreciation rights can be settled in either Class A shares of Angi
or shares of IAC common stock. If settled in IAC common stock, the Company reimburses IAC in either cash or through the issuance of Class A shares to
IAC. The Company currently settles all equity awards on a net basis.
Pursuant to the employee matters agreement, in the event of a distribution of Angi capital stock to IAC stockholders in a transaction intended to qualify
as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Compensation Committee of the IAC Board of Directors has the exclusive authority to determine the
treatment of outstanding IAC equity awards. Such authority includes (but is not limited to) the ability to convert all or part of IAC equity awards
outstanding immediately prior to the distribution into equity awards denominated in shares of Angi Class A Common Stock for no compensation, which
Angi would be obligated to assume and which would be dilutive to Angi’s stockholders.

Contractual Obligations
The Company enters into various contractual arrangements as a part of its continued operations. Material contractual obligations described in the
accompanying notes to the financial statements within “Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” include principal and interest
payments long-term as debt described in “Note 6—Long-term Debt,” operating leases as described in “Note 12—Leases,” and postretirement benefits as
described in “Note 15—Benefit Plans.”
The Company has material purchase obligations which represent legally binding agreements to purchase goods and services that specify all significant

(ii) $17.9 million related to media spend to be made in 2023, (iii) $6.9 million related to technology contracts spend, and (iv) payments of $2.3 million
related to communication spend.
Capital Expenditures
The Company’s 2023 capital expenditures are expected to be lower than 2022 capital expenditures of $116.4 million by approximately 50% due
primarily to decreased investment in capitalized software.
Liquidity Assessment
The Company’s liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for its products and services due to economic or other factors, including
COVID-19.
At December 31, 2022, IAC held all Class B shares of Angi Inc., which represent 84.1% of the economic interest and 98.1% of the voting interest of
the Company. As a result, IAC has the ability to control Angi’s financing activities, including the issuance of additional debt and equity securities by Angi
or any of its subsidiaries, or the incurrence of other indebtedness generally. Angi’s ability to access the debt and equity markets may require the approval of
IAC due to its control of the majority of the outstanding voting power of Angi’s capital stock and its representation on the Angi board of directors.

The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents, and expected positive cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to fund its
normal operating requirements, including capital expenditures, debt service, the payment of withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees for net-settled
stock-based awards, and investing and other commitments, for the next twelve months. We may elect to raise additional capital through the sale of
additional equity or debt financing to fund business activities such as strategic acquisitions, share repurchases, or other purposes 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. In addition, the Company’s existing indebtedness could limit its ability to obtain additional financing.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The following disclosure is provided to supplement the descriptions of Angi’s accounting policies contained in “Note 2—Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements included “Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in regard to
significant areas of judgment. Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of its
consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates, judgments and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets, liabilities,
revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Because of the size of
the financial statement elements to which they relate, some of our accounting policies and estimates have a more significant impact on our financial
statements than others. What follows is a discussion of some of our more significant accounting policies and estimates.
Credit Losses
The Company makes judgments as to its ability to collect outstanding receivables and provides reserves when it has determined that all or a portion of
the receivable will not be collected. The Company maintains a credit loss reserve to provide for the estimated amount of accounts receivable that will not
be collected. The credit loss reserve is based upon a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s
previous loss history and the specific customer’s ability to pay its obligation to the Company. The duration of time between the Company’s issuance of an
invoice and payment due date is not significant. The carrying value of the credit loss is $43.2 million and $33.7 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. The provision for credit losses was $108.2 million and $88.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Business Combinations
Acquisitions, which are generally referred to in GAAP as business combinations, are an important part of the Company’s growth strategy. The
Company made no acquisitions in the year ended December 31, 2022 and acquisitions totaling $26.6 million for in the year ended December 31, 2021. The
purchase price of each acquisition is attributed to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition, including
identifiable intangible assets that either arise from a contractual or legal right or are separable from goodwill.
Management makes two critical determinations at the time of an acquisition, the reporting unit that will benefit from the acquisition and to which
goodwill will be assigned and the allocation of the purchase price of the business to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based upon their fair
values. The reporting unit determination is important beyond the initial allocation of purchase price because future impairment assessments of goodwill, as
described below, are performed at the reporting unit level. At October 1, 2022, the Company has four reporting units: Ads and Leads, Services, Roofing
and International. Historically, the Company’s acquisitions have been complementary to these reporting units and the goodwill has been assigned to the
reporting unit.
The allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their fair values is complex because of the judgments
involved in determining these values. The determination of purchase price and the fair value of monetary assets acquired and liabilities assumed is typically
the least complex aspect of the Company’s accounting for business combinations due to management’s experience and the inherently lower level of
complexity. Due to the higher degree of complexity associated with the valuation of intangible assets, the Company usually obtains the assistance of
outside valuation experts in the allocation of purchase price to the identifiable intangible assets acquired, which can be both definite-lived, such as acquired
technology, customer and contractor relationships, or indefinite lived, such as acquired trade names and trademarks. While outside valuation experts may
be used, management has ultimate responsibility for the valuation methods, models and inputs used and the resulting purchase price allocation. The excess
purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets is recorded as goodwill and is assigned to the reporting unit that is expected to benefit
from the business combination as of the acquisition date.
Recoverability of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
The carrying value of goodwill is $882.9 million and $916.0 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Indefinite-lived intangible assets,
which consist of the Company’s acquired trade names and trademarks, have a carrying value of $170.1 million and $171.4 million at December 31, 2022
and 2021, respectively.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed annually for impairment as of October 1, or more frequently if an event occurs or
circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit
46
Table of Contents
or the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset has declined below its carrying value. In performing its annual goodwill impairment assessment, the
Company has the option under GAAP to qualitatively assess whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying
value; if the conclusion of the qualitative assessment is that there are no indicators of impairment, the Company does not perform a quantitative test, which
would require a valuation of the reporting unit, as of October 1. GAAP provides a not all-inclusive set of examples of macroeconomic, industry, market and
company specific factors for entities to consider in performing the qualitative assessment described above; management considers the factors it deems
relevant in making its more likely than not assessments. While the Company also has the option under GAAP 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 quantitatively
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.
If the conclusion of our qualitative assessment is that there are indicators of impairment and a quantitative test is required, 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 that is being tested to its
carrying value. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the carrying value
of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, a goodwill impairment equal to the excess is recorded.
The Company’s annual assessment of the recovery of goodwill begins with management’s reassessment of its operating segments and reporting units.
A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, which is referred to as a component. This reassessment of reporting units
is also made each time the Company changes its operating segments. If the goodwill of a reporting unit is allocated to newly formed reporting units, the
allocation is usually made to each reporting unit based upon their relative fair values.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, our segment presentation was changed to reflect our four new operating segments, which now include (i) Ads and Leads,
(ii) Services, (iii) Roofing and (iv) International (includes Europe and Canada). Goodwill was allocated to reflect the new segment presentation. The
allocation of goodwill to Roofing and Canada reflects their respective historical carrying values because of the lack of operational integration with the
legacy North America segment; the allocation of the remaining goodwill to Ads and Leads and Services was based upon their relative fair values as of
October 1, 2022.
For the Company’s annual goodwill test at October 1, 2022, as a result of the significant changes in the operating segments and reporting units, we
elected to perform a quantitative assessment of the reporting units’ goodwill first, instead of performing a qualitative assessment. The quantitative test for
the reporting units of Ads & Leads, Services and International included use of both an income approach based on discounted cash flows (“DCF”) and a
market approach. The quantitative test for the reporting unit of Roofing only included an income approach based on DCF as there were no relevant publicly
traded company comparables to perform 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 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. 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. Assumptions
used in the DCF analyses, including the discount rate, are assessed based on the reporting units' current results and forecasted future performance, as well
as macroeconomic and industry specific factors. The discount rate used in determining the fair value of the Company’s Ads & Leads, Services, Roofing
and International reporting units was 12%, 15%, 16% and 18.5%, respectively for 2022 and 15.0% for the International reporting unit in 2021. 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 a reporting unit. 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.
As a result of the valuation process, we determined that the fair value of the Ads & Leads, Services and International reporting units exceeded the
carrying value and thus there was no impairment of goodwill in 2022. The fair value based on the valuation exceeded the carrying value of the Ads &
Leads, Services, and International reporting units by $1.3 billion, $40.0 million, and $143.0 million. For the Roofing reporting unit, we determined the
carrying value exceeded the fair value, resulting in an impairment being recorded to goodwill totaling $26.0 million in 2022.

Table of Contents
The Company determines the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets using an avoided royalty DCF valuation analysis. Significant judgments
inherent in this analysis include the selection of appropriate royalty and discount rates and estimating the amount and timing of expected future cash flows.
The discount rates used in the DCF analyses are intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows generated by the respective
intangible assets. The royalty rates used in the DCF analyses are based upon an estimate of the royalty rates that a market participant would pay to license
the Company’s trade names and trademarks. The future cash flows 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. Assumptions used in the avoided royalty DCF analyses, including
the discount rate and royalty rate, are assessed annually based on the actual and projected cash flows related to the asset, as well as macroeconomic and
industry specific factors. The discount rates used in the Company’s annual indefinite-lived impairment assessment ranged from 12.0% to 18.5% in 2022
and 11.1% to 15.0% in 2021, and the royalty rates used ranged from 2.0% to 4.5% in 2022 and 2.0% to 5.0% in 2021.
The 2022 annual assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets identified impairments to goodwill for the Roofing segment and 2021
annual assessment identified no impairments.
Recoverability and Estimated Useful Lives of Long-Lived Assets
We review the carrying value of all long-lived assets, comprising of leased right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”), capitalized software, leasehold
improvements and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
value of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows
expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying value is deemed not to be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded
equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. In addition, the Company reviews the useful lives of its long-
lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that these lives may be changed. The carrying value of these long-lived assets is $219.2
million and $210.5 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company is included within IAC’s tax group for purposes of federal and consolidated state income tax return filings. In all periods presented, the
income tax provision and/or benefit has been computed for the Company on an as if standalone, separate return basis and payments to and refunds from
IAC for the Company’s share of IAC’s consolidated federal and state tax return liabilities/receivables calculated on this basis have been reflected within
cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. The tax sharing agreement between the Company and IAC
governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax matters, including responsibility for taxes attributable to the
Company, entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes and other matters and, therefore, ultimately governs the amount payable to or receivable from
IAC with respect to income taxes. Any differences between taxes currently payable to or receivable from IAC under the tax sharing agreement and the
current tax provision computed on an if standalone, separate return basis for GAAP are reflected as adjustments to additional paid-in capital in the
consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and financing activities within the consolidated statement of cash flows. The portion of the December 31,
2022 deferred tax assets that will be payable to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, upon realization, is $93.7 million.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. At
December 31, 2022 and 2021, the balance of the Company’s net deferred tax asset is $142.6 million and $120.8 million, respectively.
The Company evaluates and accounts for uncertain tax positions using a two-step approach. Recognition (step one) occurs when the Company
concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustainable upon examination. Measurement (step two)
determines the amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of
all relevant information. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when the Company subsequently determines that a
tax position no longer meets the more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained. This measurement step is inherently difficult and requires subjective
estimations of such amounts to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has unrecognized
tax benefits, including interest, of $6.2 million and $6.3 million, respectively. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions
and unrecognized tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustment and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. Although management
currently believes changes to unrecognized tax benefits from period to period and differences between amounts paid, if any, upon resolution of issues raised
in audits and
48
Table of Contents
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.
The ultimate amount of deferred income tax assets realized and the amounts paid for deferred income tax liabilities and unrecognized tax benefits may
vary from our estimates due to future changes in income tax law, state income tax apportionment or the outcome of any review of our tax returns by the
various tax authorities, as well as actual operating results of the Company that vary significantly from anticipated results.
The Company regularly assesses the realizability of deferred tax assets considering all available evidence including, to the extent applicable, the
nature, frequency and severity of prior cumulative losses, forecasts of future taxable income, tax filing status, the duration of statutory carryforward
periods, available tax planning and historical experience. As of December 31, 2022, the Company is in a three-year cumulative loss position. The
Company’s most significant net deferred tax asset relates to U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $108.3 million. The Company
expects to generate future taxable income of at least $515.9 million prior to the expiration of these NOLs, $300.1 million of which expire between 2032
and 2037, and the remainder of which never expire, to fully realize this deferred tax asset.
Stock-Based Compensation
The stock-based compensation expense reflected in our statements of operations includes expense related to the Company’s stock options, stock
appreciation rights, RSU awards, including those that are linked to the achievement of the Company’s stock price, known as market-based awards
(“MSUs”) and those that are linked to the achievement of a performance target, known as performance-based awards (“PSUs”), equity instruments
denominated in shares of subsidiaries, and IAC denominated stock options.
The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $52.7 million and $28.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. Included in stock-based compensation expense in the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized a net decrease of $2.1 million
due to management departures. Also included in stock-based compensation expense in the year ended December 31, 2021 is $1.0 million related to the
modification of previously issued HomeAdvisor equity awards and Angie’s List equity awards, both of which were converted into Angi’s equity awards
when the businesses combined on September 29, 2017. These modified awards finished vesting in the first quarter of 2021, therefore, there was no
modification charge for the awards in the year ended December 31, 2022. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2021, the Company recognized a net decrease
of $7.7 million due to the reversal of previously recognized expense related to unvested awards that were forfeited due to management departures.
Stock-based compensation at the Company is complex due to our desire to attract, retain, inspire and reward outstanding entrepreneurs and managers
at the Company, including recently acquired companies, by allowing them to benefit directly from the value they help to create. We accomplish these
objectives, in part, by issuing equity awards denominated in the equity of our subsidiaries as well as in Angi Inc. We further refine this approach by
tailoring certain equity awards to the applicable circumstances. For example, we issue certain equity awards for which vesting is linked to the achievement
of a performance target such as revenue or profits; these awards are referred to as performance-based awards. In other cases, we link the vesting of equity
awards to the achievement of a value target for a subsidiary or Angi Inc.’s stock price, as applicable; these awards are referred to as market-based awards.
The nature and variety of these types of equity-based awards creates complexity in our determination of stock-based compensation expense.
In addition, acquisitions are an important part of the Company’s growth strategy. These transactions may result in the modification of equity awards
which creates additional complexity and additional stock-based compensation expense. Also, our internal reorganizations can also lead to modifications of
equity awards and result in additional complexity and stock-based compensation expense.
Finally, the means by which we settle our equity-based awards also introduces complexity into our financial reporting. We provide a path to liquidity
by settling the subsidiary denominated awards in IAC or Angi Inc. shares. In addition, certain former HomeAdvisor (US) awards can be settled in IAC or
Angi Inc. awards at IAC’s election. These features increase the complexity of our earnings per share calculations.
There were no stock options or stock appreciation rights granted by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 or 2020. The Company
estimates the fair value of newly granted or modified stock appreciation rights and stock options, including equity instruments denominated in shares of
subsidiaries, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of highly subjective and complex
assumptions, the most significant of which include expected term, expected volatility of the underlying shares, risk-free interest rates and the expected
dividend yield. In
49
Table of Contents
addition, the recognition of stock-based compensation expense is impacted by our estimated forfeiture rates, which are based, in part, on historical
forfeiture rates. For stock appreciation rights and stock options, including equity instruments denominated in shares of subsidiaries, the grant date fair value
of the award is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period
of the award. The Company also issues RSUs, PSUs and MSUs. For RSUs, the value of the instrument is measured at the grant date as the fair value of the
underlying Angi’s common stock and expensed as stock-based compensation expense over the vesting term. For PSUs, the value of the instrument is
measured at the grant date as the fair value of the underlying Angi’s common stock and expensed as stock-based compensation over the vesting term when
the performance targets are considered probable of being achieved. For MSUs, a lattice model is used to estimate the value of the awards.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial
statements included in “Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt.
At December 31, 2022, the principal amount of the Company’s outstanding debt is comprised of $500.0 million of ANGI Group Senior Notes, which
bears interest at a fixed rate. If market rates decline, the Company runs the risk that the related required payments of the ANGI Group Senior Notes 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 $23.3 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.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The Company has operations in certain foreign markets, primarily in various jurisdictions within the European Union and the United Kingdom. The
Company has exposure to foreign currency exchange risk related to its foreign subsidiaries that transact business in a functional currency other than the
U.S. dollar. As a result, as foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate, the translation of the statement of operations of the Company’s international
businesses into U.S. dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results.
In addition, certain of the Company’s U.S. operations have customers in international markets. International revenue, which is measured based upon
where the customer is located, accounted for 5%, 6%, and 6% for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company is also exposed to foreign currency transaction gains and losses to the extent it or its subsidiaries conduct transactions in and/or have
assets and/or liabilities that are denominated in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency. The Company recorded foreign exchange gains and
(losses) of $3.4 million, $1.2 million, and $(0.1) million for the year ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange gains or losses have not been material to the Company, therefore, the Company has not hedged
any foreign currency exposures. Any growth and expansion of our international operations increases our exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.
Significant foreign exchange rate fluctuations, in the case of one currency or collectively with other currencies, could have a significant impact on our
future results of operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Angi Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Angi Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2022, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated
financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at
December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated March 1, 2023 expressed an unqualified
opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the
Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or
required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2)
involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion
on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion
on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Description of
the Matter
Goodwill - Quantitative Impairment Assessment for Angi Services
As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s goodwill balance was $882.9 million. As disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements, goodwill is assessed annually for impairment using either a qualitative or quantitative approach 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 below its carrying value. In 2022, the Company performed a quantitative test over the Services reporting
unit. The fair value of the Services reporting unit is determined using both an income approach based on discounted cash flows
(“DCF”) and a market approach. The Company determined the fair value exceeded the carrying value of the Services reporting
unit by $40 million.
Auditing management’s quantitative impairment test for goodwill recorded for the Angi Services reporting unit was complex
and judgmental due to the measurement uncertainty in estimating the fair value of the reporting unit for goodwill. Specifically,
the fair value estimate was sensitive to assumptions such as the discount rate and revenue growth rates used in the DCF model
as well as the selection of a peer group of companies used in the market approach. These assumptions are affected by such
factors as expected future market or economic conditions.
How We Addressed
the Matter in Our
Audit
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of the Company’s controls over its
goodwill impairment review process. For example, we tested controls over management’s review of the valuation
methodologies and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the Angi Services reporting unit for goodwill,
including projected financial information, the discount rate, and the selection of a peer group of companies.
To test the estimated fair value of the Company’s Angi Services reporting unit, our audit procedures included, among others,
assessing the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and testing the significant assumptions and underlying data used
by the Company. We evaluated the reasonableness of the projected financial information by comparing the significant
assumptions to current industry and economic trends and changes in the Company’s business. We also evaluated management’s
projected financial information to identify, understand and evaluate changes in forecasted results as compared to historical
results. We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s selection of a peer group of companies. We performed sensitivity
analyses of significant assumptions to evaluate the change in the fair value of the Company’s reporting units for goodwill
resulting from changes in the assumptions. In addition, we involved an internal valuation specialist to assist in evaluating the
valuation methodologies and significant assumptions applied in developing the fair value estimates.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2017.

for approximately 29 million projects during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Ads and Leads provides service professionals the capability to engage with potential customers, including quote and invoicing services, and provides
consumers with tools and resources to help them find local, pre-screened and customer-rated service professionals nationwide for home repair, maintenance

The Company has four operating segments: (i) Ads and Leads; (ii) Services; (iii) Roofing; and (iv) International (Europe and Canada) and operates
under multiple brands including Angi, HomeAdvisor, Handy, Total Home Roofing, and Angi Roofing. Roofing includes the business the Company
acquired on July 1, 2021 known as Total Home Roofing.
As used herein, “Angi,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms refer to Angi Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires
otherwise).
At December 31, 2022, IAC Inc., formerly known as IAC/InterActiveCorp (“IAC”) owned 84.1% and 98.1% of the economic interest and voting
interest, respectively, of the Company.
NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly-owned by the Company and all entities in which the
Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances between and among the Company and its subsidiaries have been
eliminated. See “Note 14—Related Party Transactions with IAC” for information on transactions between Angi and IAC.
In the opinion of management, the assumptions underlying the historical consolidated financial statements, including the basis on which the expenses
have been allocated from IAC, are reasonable. However, the allocations may not reflect all of the expenses that Angi Inc. may have incurred as a
standalone public company for the periods presented.
Segment Changes
As a result of management’s continued assessments of reporting structure, there was a decision in the fourth quarter of 2022 to refine segments to more
effectively measure the businesses’ performance. Management has identified four reportable segments with discrete financial results to appropriately match
operating costs to the revenues generated for these businesses (Ads & Leads, Services, Roofing and International). Our financial information for prior
periods has been recast to conform to the current period presentation.
COVID-19 Update
The COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption. Recently, there has been a
return to more normal societal interactions, including the way we operate our business. We cannot predict the future impacts of this ongoing and any new
pandemic(s).

Accounting Estimates
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated financial
statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and
expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to: the fair values of cash equivalents; the carrying
value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for credit losses; the determination of the customer relationship period for
certain costs to obtain a contract with a customer; the carrying value of right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”); the useful lives and recoverability of definite-
lived intangible assets and capitalized software, leasehold improvements, and equipment; the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets; unrecognized tax benefits; the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for stock-based awards,
among others. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets, and other factors that the Company
considers relevant.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s disaggregated revenue disclosures are presented in “Note 11—Segment Information.”
The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of the parties and payment
terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the
promised services or goods is transferred to our customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in
exchange for those services or goods.
Ads and Leads Revenue
Primarily reflects domestic ads and leads revenue, including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches, revenue from service professionals
under contract for advertising and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers. Consumer connection revenue varies based
upon several factors, including the service requested, product experience offered, and geographic location of service. Consumer connection revenue is
generally billed one week following a consumer match, with payment due upon receipt of invoice. The Company maintains a liability for potential credits
issued to services providers. Revenue is also derived from (i) sales of time-based website, mobile and call center advertising to service professionals, (ii)
service professional membership subscription fees, (iii) membership subscription fees from consumers, and (iv) other services. Angi service professionals
generally pay for advertisements in advance on a monthly or annual basis at the option of the service professional, with the average advertising contract
term being approximately one year. Angi website, mobile and call center advertising revenue is recognized ratably over the contract term. Revenue from
the sale of advertising in the Angie’s List Magazine is recognized in the period in which the publication is distributed. Service professional membership
subscription revenue is initially deferred upon receipt of payment and is recognized using the straight-line method over the applicable subscription period,
which is typically one year. Angi prepaid consumer membership subscription fees are recognized as revenue using the straight-line method over the term of
the applicable subscription period, which is typically one year.
Services Revenue
Primarily reflects domestic revenue from pre-priced offerings by which the consumer requests services through Services platforms and we engage a
service professional to perform the service. Consumers are billed when a job is scheduled through the Services platform. Billing practices are governed by
the contract terms of each project as negotiated with the consumer. Billings do not necessarily correlate with revenue recognized over time as this is based
on the timing of when the consumer receives the promised services.
From January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022, Angi Services recorded revenue on a gross basis. Effective January 1, 2023, Angi Inc. modified the
Services terms and conditions so that the service professional, rather than Angi, Inc., has the
60
Table of Contents
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
contractual relationship with the consumer to deliver the service and our performance obligation to the consumer is to connect them with the service
professional. This change in contractual terms requires net revenue accounting treatment effective January 1, 2023. There is no impact to operating income
or Adjusted EBITDA.
Roofing Revenue
Primarily reflects revenue from the roof replacement business offering by which the consumer purchases services directly from the Roofing business,
which was acquired on July 1, 2021, and we then engage a service professional to perform the service. Consumers typically pay when a job is completed
and revenue is recognized based on the Company’s progress in satisfying the roofing service.
International Revenue
Primarily reflects revenue generated within the International segment (comprised of businesses in Europe and Canada), including consumer connection
revenue for consumer matches and membership subscription revenue from service professionals and consumers.
Transaction Price
The objective of determining the transaction price is to estimate the amount of consideration the Company is due in exchange for its services or goods,
including amounts that are variable. Contracts may include sales incentives, such as rebates, which are accounted for as variable consideration when
estimating the transaction price. The Company also maintains a liability for potential future refunds and customer credits, which is recorded as a reduction
of revenue. All estimates of variable consideration are based upon historical experience and customer trends. The Company determines the total transaction
price, including an estimate of any variable consideration, at contract inception and reassesses this estimate each reporting period.
The Company excludes from the measurement of transaction price all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are both (i) imposed on and
concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and (ii) collected from customers. Accordingly, such tax amounts are not included as a component
of net revenue or cost of revenue.
For contracts that have an original duration of one year or less, the Company uses the practical expedient available under ASC 606, applicable to such
contracts and does not consider the time value of money.
Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to
each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices
charged to customers, which are directly observable or based on an estimate if not directly observable.
Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
The Company has determined that certain costs, primarily commissions paid to employees pursuant to certain sales incentive programs, meet the
requirements to be capitalized as a cost of obtaining a contract. Capitalized sales commissions are amortized over the estimated customer relationship
period. The Company calculates the estimated customer relationship period as the average customer life, which is based on historical data. When customer
renewals are expected and the renewal commission is not commensurate with the initial commission, the average customer life includes renewal periods.
For sales incentive programs where the customer relationship period is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense the
costs as incurred.
The following table provides information about our contract asset balances at the balance sheet dates.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized expense of $77.4 million and $84.7 million, respectively, related to the
amortization of these costs.
Performance Obligations
As permitted under the practical expedient available under ASC 606, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations
for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts with variable consideration that is allocated entirely to unsatisfied
performance obligations or to a wholly unsatisfied promise accounted for under the series guidance, and (iii) contracts for which the Company recognizes
revenue at the amount which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
Accounts Receivables, Net of the Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable include amounts billed and currently due from customers. The allowance for credit loss is based upon a number of factors,
including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history and the specific customer’s ability to pay its obligation.
The time between the Company’s issuance of an invoice and payment due date is not significant; customer payments that are not collected in advance of
the transfer of promised services or goods are generally due no later than 30 days from invoice date.

Deferred revenue consists of advance payments that are received or are contractually due in advance of the Company’s performance. The Company’s
deferred revenue is reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current when
the term of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of its performance obligation is one year or less. During the years ended December
31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $53.4 million and $54.5 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December
31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The current deferred revenue balances are $50.9 million and $53.8 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The non-current deferred revenue balances are $0.1 million at both December 31, 2022 and 2021. Non-current deferred revenue is included in “Other long-
term liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments, with maturities of less than 91 days from the date of purchase. Domestically, cash
equivalents consist of AAA rated government money market funds, treasury discount notes, and time deposits. Internationally, there are no cash equivalents
at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Investments in Marketable Debt Securities
The Company invests in marketable debt securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity to fund current operations or
satisfy other cash requirements as needed. Marketable debt securities are adjusted to fair value each quarter, and the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax,
are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The specific-identification method is used
to determine the cost of debt securities sold and the amount of unrealized gains and losses reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive (loss)
income into earnings. The Company reviews its debt securities for impairment, including from risk of credit loss, each reporting period. The Company
recognizes an unrealized loss on debt securities in net loss when the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary. Factors the Company considers
in making such determination include the duration, severity and reason for the decline in value and the potential recovery and our intent to sell the debt
security. The Company also considers whether it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis and whether the amortized
cost basis cannot be recovered because of credit losses. If an impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary, the debt security will be written down to
its fair value and the loss will be recognized within other income (expense), net. The Company held no marketable debt securities at December 31, 2022
and 2021.
Capitalized Software, Leasehold Improvements and Equipment
Capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment, including significant improvements, are recorded at cost. Repairs and maintenance costs
are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or, in the case of leasehold
improvements, the lease term, if shorter.

The Company capitalizes certain internal use software costs including external direct costs utilized in developing or obtaining the software and
compensation for personnel directly associated with the development of the software. Capitalization of such costs begins when the preliminary project
stage is complete and ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. The net book value of capitalized internal use
software was $128.6 million and $86.4 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Business Combinations
The purchase price of each acquisition is attributed to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition,
including identifiable intangible assets that either arise from a contractual or legal right or are separable from goodwill. The Company usually uses the
assistance of outside valuation experts to assist in the allocation of purchase price to identifiable intangible assets acquired. While outside valuation experts
may be used, management has ultimate responsibility for the valuation methods, models and inputs used and the resulting purchase price allocation. The
excess purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets is recorded as goodwill and is assigned to the reporting unit(s) that is expected
to benefit from the combination as of the acquisition date.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
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 indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or the fair value of an indefinite-lived
intangible asset has declined below its carrying value. At October 1, 2022, the Company has four reporting units: Ads and Leads, Services, Roofing and
International.
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;
63
Table of Contents
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
otherwise, a quantitative assessment is performed and the fair value of the reporting unit is determined. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds
its fair value an impairment equal to the excess is recorded.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, our segment presentation was changed to reflect our four new operating segments, which now include (i) Ads and Leads,
(ii) Services, (iii) Roofing and (iv) International (includes Europe and Canada). Goodwill was allocated to reflect the new segment presentation. The
allocation of goodwill to Roofing and Canada reflects their respective historical carrying values because of the lack of operational integration with Angi
North America; the allocation of the remaining goodwill to Ads and Leads and Services was based upon their relative fair values as of October 1, 2022.
For the Company’s annual goodwill test at October 1, 2022, as a result of the significant changes in the operating segments and reporting units, we
elected to perform a quantitative assessment of the reporting units’ goodwill first, instead of performing a qualitative assessment. The quantitative test for
the reporting units of Ads & Leads, Services and International included use of both an income approach based on discounted cash flows (“DCF”) and a
market approach. The quantitative test for the reporting unit of Roofing only included an income approach based on DCF as there were no relevant publicly
traded company comparables to perform 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 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. 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. Assumptions
used in the DCF analyses, including the discount rate, are assessed based on the reporting units' current results and forecasted future performance, as well
as macroeconomic and industry specific factors. The discount rate used in determining the fair value of the Company’s Ads & Leads, Services, Roofing
and International reporting units was 12%, 15%, 16% and 18.5%, respectively for 2022 and 15.0% for the International reporting unit in 2021. 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 a reporting unit. 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.
As a result of the valuation process, we determined that the fair value of the Ads & Leads, Services and International reporting units exceeded the
carrying value and thus there was no impairment of goodwill in 2022. The fair value based on the valuation exceeded the carrying value of the Ads &
Leads, Services, and International reporting units by $1.3 billion, $40 million, and $143 million. For the Roofing reporting unit, we determined the carrying
value exceeded the fair value, resulting in an impairment being recorded to goodwill totaling $26 million in 2022.
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. The Company
determines the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets using an avoided royalty DCF valuation analysis. Significant judgments inherent in this
analysis include the selection of appropriate royalty and discount rates and estimating the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The discount
rates used in the DCF analyses are intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows generated by the respective intangible assets. The
royalty rates used in the DCF analyses are based upon an estimate of the royalty rates that a market participant would pay to license the Company’s trade
names and trademarks. Assumptions used in the avoided royalty DCF analyses, including the discount rate and royalty rate, are assessed annually based on
the actual and projected cash flows related to the asset, as well as macroeconomic and industry specific factors. The discount rates used in the Company’s
annual indefinite-lived impairment assessment ranged from 12.0% to 18.5% in 2022 and 11.1% to 15.0% in 2021, and the royalty rates used ranged from
2.0% to 4.5% in 2022 and 2.0% to 5.0% in 2021.
The 2022, 2021 and 2020 annual assessments of indefinite-lived intangible assets identified no impairments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets with Definite Lives
Long-lived assets, which consist of ROU assets, capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment and intangible assets with definite lives,
are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying
value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition
of the asset. If the carrying value is deemed not to be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the
long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. Amortization of definite-lived intangible assets is computed either on a straight-line basis or based on the pattern in
which the economic benefits of the asset will be realized.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company categorizes its financial instruments measured at fair value into a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in pricing the asset
or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
•
•
•
Level 1: Observable inputs obtained from independent sources, such as quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Other inputs, which are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,
quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs that are derived principally from or
corroborated by observable market data. The fair values of the Company’s Level 2 financial assets are primarily obtained from observable market
prices for identical underlying securities that may not be actively traded. Certain of these securities may have different market prices from
multiple market data sources, in which case an average market price is used.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and require the Company to develop its own assumptions, based on the
best information available in the circumstances, about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, ROU assets, capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment are
adjusted to fair value only when an impairment is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs.
Warranty Costs
As part of certain of our revenue arrangements, we include warranties providing customers with assurance on the quality of the services provided.
Under our warranties, we incur costs to ensure the services performed are up to the customers standard and/or to reimburse for any claim for damages
submitted in accordance with our warranty terms and conditions. These costs are recorded in the period the associated revenue is recognized as a
component of cost of revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed in the period incurred (when the advertisement first runs for production costs that are initially capitalized) and represent
online marketing, including fees paid to search engines, offline marketing, which is primarily television advertising and partner-related payments to those
who direct traffic to our platforms. Advertising expense was $561.5 million, $556.4 million and $487.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2022,
2021 and 2020, respectively.
Legal Costs
Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The Company is included within IAC’s tax group for purposes of federal and consolidated state income tax return filings. In all periods presented, the
income tax provision and/or benefit has been computed for the Company on an as if standalone, separate return basis and payments to and refunds from
IAC for the Company’s share of IAC’s consolidated federal and state tax return liabilities/receivables calculated on this basis have been reflected within
cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The
Company records interest, net of any applicable related income tax benefit, for uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The
Company elects to recognize the tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income as a period expense in the period the tax is incurred.
The Company evaluates and accounts for uncertain tax positions using a two-step approach. Recognition (step one) occurs when the Company
concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustainable upon examination. Measurement (step two)
determines the amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of
all relevant information. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when the Company subsequently determines that a
tax position no longer meets the more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to Angi Inc. shareholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock appreciation rights, stock options
and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vested resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the
earnings of the Company.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction Gains and Losses
The financial position and operating results of foreign entities whose primary economic environment is based on their local currency are consolidated
using the local currency as the functional currency. These local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange as of the balance sheet
date, and local currency revenue and expenses of these operations are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Translation gains and losses
are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses resulting from assets
and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated statement of operations as a component of
other income (expense), net. Translation gains and losses relating to foreign entities that are liquidated or substantially liquidated are reclassified out of
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is expensed over the requisite service period. See
“Note 10—Stock‑based Compensation” for a discussion of the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests in the consolidated subsidiaries of the Company are ordinarily reported on the consolidated balance sheet within shareholders’
equity, separately from the Company’s equity. However, securities that are redeemable at the option of the holder and not solely within the control of the
issuer must be classified outside of shareholders’ equity. Accordingly, all noncontrolling interests that are redeemable at the option of the holder are
presented outside of shareholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
66
Table of Contents
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In connection with the acquisition of certain subsidiaries, management of these businesses has retained an ownership interest. The Company is party to
fair value put and call arrangements with respect to these interests. These put and call arrangements allow management of these businesses to require the
Company to purchase their interests or allow the Company to acquire such interests at fair value, respectively. The put arrangements do not meet the
definition of a derivative instrument as the put agreements do not provide for net settlement. These put and call arrangements become exercisable by the
Company and the counter-party at various dates. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the remaining redeemable non-controlling interest was
exercised. One of these arrangements was exercised during the year ended December 31, 2020. Because these put arrangements are exercisable by the
counter-party outside the control of the Company, to the extent that the fair value of these interests exceeds the value determined by normal noncontrolling
interest accounting, the value of such interests is adjusted to fair value with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital. During the years
ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded adjustments of $28.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, to increase these interests to fair
value. Fair value determinations require high levels of judgment and are based on various valuation techniques, including market comparables and
discounted cash flow projections.
Certain Risks and Concentrations
The Company’s business is subject to certain risks and concentrations including dependence on third-party technology providers, exposure to risks
associated with online commerce security and credit card fraud.
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and
marketable debt securities. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with financial institutions and are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
insurance limits.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There are no recently issued accounting pronouncements adopted or that have not yet been adopted by the Company that are expected to have a
material effect on the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows of the Company.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 3—INCOME TAXES
The Company is included within IAC’s tax group for purposes of federal and consolidated state income tax return filings. In all periods presented, the
income tax benefit and/or provision has been computed for the Company on an as if standalone, separate return basis and payments to and refunds from
IAC for the Company’s share of IAC’s consolidated federal and state tax return liabilities/receivables calculated on this basis have been reflected within
cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. The tax sharing agreement between the Company and IAC
governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax matters, including responsibility for taxes attributable to the
Company, entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes and other matters and, therefore, ultimately governs the amount payable to or receivable from
IAC with respect to income taxes. Any differences between taxes currently payable to or receivable from IAC under the tax sharing agreement and the
current tax provision or benefit computed on an as if standalone, separate return basis for GAAP are reflected as adjustments to additional paid-in capital in
the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and financing activities within the consolidated statement of cash flows.

The portion of the December 31, 2022 deferred tax assets that will be payable to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, upon realization, is $93.7
million.
At December 31, 2022, the Company has federal and state NOLs of $515.9 million and $452.2 million, respectively, available to offset future income.
Of these federal NOLs, $215.8 million can be carried forward indefinitely and $300.1 million, if not utilized, will expire at various times between 2032 and
2037. Of these state NOLs, $32.2 million will be carried forward indefinitely and $420.0 million will expire at various times primarily between 2025 and
2042. Federal and state NOLs of $322.5 million and $230.4 million, respectively, can be used against future taxable income without restriction and the
remaining NOLs will be subject to limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, separate return limitations, and applicable state law. At
December 31, 2022, the Company has foreign NOLs of $303.3 million available to offset future income. Of these foreign NOLs, $296.3 million can be
carried forward indefinitely and $7.0 million, if not utilized, will expire at various times between 2037 and 2042. During 2022, the Company recognized
tax benefits related to NOLs of $0.7 million.
At December 31, 2022, the Company has tax credit carryforwards of $27.7 million relating to federal and state tax credits for research activities. Of
these credit carryforwards, $0.9 million can be carried forward indefinitely and $26.8 million, if not utilized, will expire between 2023 and 2042.
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 December 31, 2022, the Company has a U.S. gross deferred tax asset of $206.8 million that the
Company expects to fully utilize on a more likely than not basis.

During 2022, the Company’s valuation allowance decreased by $1.6 million primarily due to currency translation adjustments and a net decrease in
foreign NOLs, partially offset by an increase in unbenefited capital losses and state tax attributes. At December 31, 2022, the Company has a valuation
allowance of $65.0 million related to the portion of NOLs and other items for which it is more likely than not that the tax benefit will not be realized.

The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. At December 31, 2022
and 2021, accruals for interest are not material and there are no accruals for penalties.
The Company is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax as a result of previously filed separate
company and consolidated tax returns with IAC. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation
of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has completed its audit of IAC’s federal income tax
returns for the years ended December 31, 2013 through 2019, which includes the operations of the Company. The settlement of these tax years has been
submitted to the Joint Committee of Taxation for approval. The statutes of limitations for the years 2013 through 2019 have been extended to

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
December 31, 2023. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for various tax years beginning with 2014. Income taxes payable
include unrecognized tax benefits considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from 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
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 December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, of $6.2 million and $6.3 million respectively; all of
which are for tax positions included in IAC’s consolidated tax return filings. If unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2022 are subsequently
recognized, the income tax provision would be reduced by $5.8 million. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2021 is $6.0 million.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, ROU assets, capitalized software, leasehold improvements and equipment are
adjusted to fair value only when an impairment is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs.
During the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company recorded $2.8 million and $12.7 million in impairment charges on
ROU assets and leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment, respectively. Impairment expense was determined by comparing the carrying value
of each asset group related to each office space vacated to the estimated fair market value of cash inflows directly associated with each office space. Based
on this analysis, if the carrying amount of the asset group is greater than the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized,
measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset, within general and administrative expense.
During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company recorded $10.9 million and $4.6 million in impairment charges on capitalized software within
the Services and Ads and Leads segments, respectively. Impairment expense was determined by comparing the carrying value to the fair value of each
capitalized software asset group. Based on this analysis, the carrying amount was determined to not be recoverable and an impairment charge was
recognized in the amount of the carrying value and is included within depreciation expense.

(a)
If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and subsidiary
denominated equity and vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, 23.6 million, 17.5 million, and 24.9 million of potentially
dilutive securities, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the weighted
average basic shares outstanding were used to compute all earnings per share amounts.
(b)
Market-based awards and performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) are considered contingently issuable shares. Shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of market-based awards and
PSUs are included in the denominator for earnings per share if (i) the applicable market or performance condition(s) has been met and (ii) the inclusion of the market-based awards and
PSUs is dilutive for the respective reporting periods. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, 0.8 million, 2.2 million and 2.0 million underlying market-based awards
and PSUs, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the market or performance condition(s) had not been met.
NOTE 10—STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company currently has one active stock plan, which became effective on September 29, 2017 (“the Combination”). The 2017 plan (“the Plan”)
covers stock options, stock appreciation rights and RSU awards, including those that are linked to the achievement of the Company’s stock price, known as
market-based awards (“MSUs”) and those that are linked to the achievement of a performance target, known as performance-based awards (“PSUs”),
denominated in shares of Angi Inc. common stock, as well as provides for the future grant of these and other equity awards. The Plan authorizes the
Company to grant awards to its employees, officers, directors and consultants. At December 31, 2022, there are 22.4 million shares available for grant
under the Plan.
The Plan has a stated term of ten years, and provides that the exercise price of stock options and stock appreciation rights granted will not be less than
the market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Plan does not specify grant dates or vesting schedules for awards, as those
determinations have been delegated to the Compensation Committee of Angi Inc. Board of Directors (the “Committee”). Each grant agreement reflects the
grant date and vesting schedule for that particular grant as determined by the Committee. Stock options and stock appreciation rights granted under the Plan
generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period from the grant date. RSU awards granted under the Plan generally vest either in one
installment over a three-year period, in equal annual installments over a four-year period, or a three-year graded schedule (installments of 57% in first year,
29% in second year, and 14% in last year), in each case, from the grant date. MSU awards granted under the Plan generally vest in five installments over a
two-year period from the grant date. PSU awards granted subsequent to the Combination generally cliff vest in a two to five-year period from the grant
date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of operations includes expense related to: (i) the Company’s stock
options, stock appreciation rights and RSUs; (ii) equity instruments denominated in shares of its subsidiaries; and (iii) IAC denominated stock options and
PSUs held by Angi Inc. employees. The amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized is net of estimated forfeitures. The forfeiture rate is
estimated at the grant date based on historical experience and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimated rate.
The expense ultimately recorded is for the awards that vest. At December 31, 2022, there was $68.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of
estimated forfeitures, related to all equity-based awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.5 years.
The total income tax benefit recognized in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and
2020 related to all stock-based compensation is $3.6 million, $16.9 million, $24.3 million, respectively.
The aggregate income tax (detriment)/benefit recognized related to the exercise of stock options and stock appreciation rights for the years ended
December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 is $(0.3) million, $10.8 million, and $11.4 million, respectively. There may be some delay in the timing of the
realization of the cash benefit of the income tax deductions related to stock-based compensation because it will be dependent upon the amount and timing
of future taxable income and the timing of estimated income tax payments.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between Angi Inc. closing stock price on the last trading day of 2022 and the
exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money awards that would have been exercised had all award holders exercised their awards on December
31, 2022. The total intrinsic value of awards exercised during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 is $1.3 million, $103.8 million and
$120.9 million, respectively.

There were no stock options or stock appreciation rights granted by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020.
In connection with the Combination, the previously issued HomeAdvisor (US) stock appreciation rights were converted into Angi Inc. equity awards
resulting in a modification charge. There were no charges included in stock-based compensation expense in the year ended December 31, 2022 and charges
of $0.9 million and $21.1 million, for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 respectively, related to these modified awards.
No cash was received from stock option exercises during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 because they were net settled in shares of
Angi Inc. common stock.
The Company currently settles all equity awards on a net basis with the Company remitting withholding taxes on behalf of the employee or on a gross
basis with the Company issuing a sufficient number of Class A shares to cover the withholding taxes. In addition, at IAC’s option, certain awards can be
settled in either Class A shares of Angi Inc. or shares of IAC common stock. If settled in IAC common stock, Angi Inc. reimburses IAC in either cash or
through the issuance of Class A shares to IAC. Assuming all of the stock appreciation rights outstanding on December 31, 2022 were net settled on that
date, ANGI would have issued no Class A shares (either to award holders or to IAC as reimbursement) and ANGI would have remitted nothing in cash for
withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate). Assuming all other ANGI equity awards outstanding on December 31, 2022, were net settled on that
date, including stock options, RSUs and subsidiary denominated equity described below, ANGI would have issued 11.1 million Class A shares and would
have remitted $26.2 million in cash for withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate).
Restricted Stock Units, Market-based Stock Units and Performance-based Stock Units
RSUs, MSUs, and PSUs are awards in the form of phantom shares or units denominated in a hypothetical equivalent number of shares of Angi Inc.
common stock and with the value of each RSU and PSU equal to the fair value of Angi Inc. common stock at the date of grant. The value of each MSU is
estimated using a lattice model that incorporates a Monte Carlo simulation of Angi Inc.’s stock price. Each RSU, MSU, and PSU grant is subject to service-
based vesting, where a specific period of continued employment must pass before an award vests. MSUs also include market-based vesting, tied to the
stock price of Angi Inc. before an award vests and PSUs include performance-based vesting, where certain performance targets set at the time of grant must
be achieved before an award vests. For RSU grants, the expense is measured at the grant date as the fair value of Angi Inc. common stock and expensed as
stock-based compensation over the vesting term. For MSU grants, the expense is measured using a lattice model and expensed as stock-based
compensation over the requisite service period. For PSU grants, the expense is measured at the grant date as the fair value of Angi Inc. common stock and
expensed as stock-based compensation over the vesting term if the performance targets are considered probable of being achieved.
Unvested RSUs, MSUs, and PSUs outstanding at December 31, 2022 and changes during the year ended December 31, 2022 are as follows:

Included in the table are MSUs and PSUs which vests in varying amounts depending upon certain market or performance conditions. The MSUs and PSUs in the table above includes
these awards at their maximum potential payout.
In 2019, the Company granted certain MSUs that were liability-classified stock-settled awards with a market condition. The fair value of these awards
were subject to remeasurement each reporting period until settlement of the award occurred in 2021. The total expense related to these awards recognized
was $10.4 million, equal to the number of shares vested based on the fair value of Angi Inc. common stock on the settlement date.
The weighted average fair value of RSUs granted during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 based on market prices of Angi Inc.
common stock on the grant date was $4.95, $12.73, and $7.37, respectively. The weighted average fair value of MSUs granted during the years ended
December 31, 2022 and 2021, based on the lattice model, was $6.39 and $14.39, respectively. There were no MSUs granted during the year ended
December 31, 2020. There were no PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2022. The weighted average fair value of PSUs granted during the
years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 based on market prices of Angi Inc. common stock on the grant date was $13.51 and $6.92, respectively. The
total fair value of RSUs that vested during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 was $20.8 million, $35.2 million and $23.4 million,
respectively. There were no MSUs that vested during the year ended December 31, 2022. The total fair value of MSUs that vested during the years ended
December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $2.1 million, and $5.2 million, respectively. The total fair value of PSUs that vested during the year ended December 31,
2022 and 2021 was $0.1 million and $3.6 million, respectively. There were no PSUs that vested during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Equity Instruments Denominated in the Shares of Certain Subsidiaries
Angi Inc. has granted stock appreciation rights denominated in the equity of certain non-publicly traded subsidiaries to employees and management of
those subsidiaries. These equity awards vest over a period of years, which is typically four years. The value of the stock appreciation rights is tied to the
value of the common stock of these subsidiaries, which is determined by the Company using a variety of valuation techniques including a combination of
market based and discounted cash flow valuation methodologies. Accordingly, these interests only have value to the extent the relevant business
appreciates in value above the initial value utilized to determine the exercise price. These interests can have significant value in the event of significant
appreciation. The fair value of these interests is generally determined by the board of directors of the applicable subsidiary when settled, which will occur
at various dates through 2026 and are ultimately settled in IAC common stock or Angi Inc. Class A common stock, at IAC’s election. These equity awards
are settled on a net basis, with the award holder entitled to receive a payment in shares equal to the intrinsic value of the award at exercise less an amount
equal to the required cash tax withholding payment. The expense associated with these equity awards is initially measured at fair value, using the Black-
Scholes option pricing model, at the grant date and is expensed as stock-based compensation over the vesting term.
The plans under which these awards are granted establish specific settlement dates or liquidity events for which the valuation of the relevant subsidiary
is determined for purposes of settlement of the awards.

The Company has determined its operating segments consistent with how the chief operating decision maker views the businesses. Additionally, the
Company considers 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.
As a result of management’s continued assessments of reporting structure, there was a decision in the fourth quarter of 2022 to refine segments to more
effectively measure the businesses’ performance. Management has identified four reportable segments with discrete financial results to appropriately match
operating costs to the revenues generated for these businesses (Ads & Leads, Services, Roofing and International).

The Company leases office space, data center facilities, and equipment in connection with its operations under various operating leases, the majority of
which contain escalation clauses.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying assets for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the present value of the
Company’s obligation to make payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and related lease liabilities are based on the present value of fixed lease
payments over the lease term using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate on the lease commencement date or January 1, 2019 for leases that
commenced prior to that date. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of lease payments in determining ROU assets and related lease
liabilities. If the lease includes one or more options to extend the term of the lease, the renewal option is considered in the lease term if it is reasonably
certain the Company will exercise the option(s). Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As permitted by ASC 842,
leases with an initial term of twelve months or less (“short-term leases”) are not recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Variable lease payments consist primarily of common area maintenance, utilities, and taxes, which are not included in the recognition of ROU assets
and related lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits. The Company establishes accruals for specific legal matters when it
determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. The total accrual for legal matters is $13.5
million at December 31, 2022. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is not probable.
Although management currently believes that resolving claims against us, including claims where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, will not
have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and
management’s view of these matters may change in the future. The Company also evaluates other contingent matters, including uncertain income tax
positions and non-income tax contingencies, to assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and estimated extent of potential loss. It is possible that an
unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits or other contingencies could have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or
financial condition of the Company. See “Note 3—Income Taxes” for additional information related to uncertain income tax contingencies.
NOTE 14—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS WITH IAC
Relationship with IAC
Allocation of CEO Compensation and Certain Expenses
Effective October 10, 2022, Joseph Levin, CEO of IAC and Chairman of Angi, was appointed CEO of Angi. Mr. Levin serves as both CEO of IAC
and Angi following his appointment. For the period from October 10, 2022 to December 31, 2022, IAC allocated $2.1 million in costs to Angi (including
salary, benefits, stock-based compensation and costs related to the CEO’s office). These costs were allocated from IAC based upon time spent on Angi by
Mr. Levin. Management considers the allocation method to be reasonable. Costs directly attributable to the Company that were initially paid for by IAC
were billed by IAC to the Company.
Additionally, Angi and IAC have entered into certain agreements to govern their relationship. These agreements include: a contribution agreement; an
investor rights agreement; a services agreement; a tax sharing agreement; and an employee matters agreement.
Contribution Agreement
The contribution agreement sets forth the agreements between the Company and IAC regarding the principal transactions necessary for IAC to
separate the Angi business from IAC's other businesses, as well as governs certain aspects of our relationship. Under the contribution agreement, the
Company agreed to assume all of the assets and liabilities related to the Angi business and agreed to indemnify IAC against any losses arising out of any
breach by the Company of the contribution agreement or the other transaction related agreements described below. IAC also agreed to indemnify the
Company against any losses arising out of any breach by IAC of the contribution agreement or any of the other transaction related agreements described
below.
Investor Rights Agreement
The investor rights agreement provides IAC with certain registration, preemptive, and governance rights related to the Company and the shares of its
capital stock it holds, as well as certain governance rights for the benefit of stockholders other than IAC.
87

Services Agreement
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The services agreement governs services that IAC provides to the Company including, among others: (i) assistance with certain legal, M&A, finance,
risk management, internal audit and treasury functions, health and welfare benefits, information security services and insurance and tax affairs, including
assistance with certain public company and unclaimed property reporting obligations and (ii) accounting, investor relations services, and tax compliance
services. The services agreement automatically renews annually for an additional one-year period for so long as IAC continues to own a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.
For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company was charged $3.8 million, $3.9 million and $4.8 million, respectively, by IAC
for services rendered pursuant to the services agreement. There was $0.8 million in outstanding payables pursuant to the services agreement as of
December 31, 2022. There were no outstanding payables or receivables pursuant to the services agreement as of December 31, 2021.
Separately, the Company subleases office space to IAC and charged rent of $1.7 million, $1.6 million, and $1.8 million for the years ended December
31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. IAC subleases office space to the Company and charged the Company $1.3 million and $0.6 million of rent for the
years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. IAC did not sublease office space to the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020. There were no
outstanding receivables due from IAC or payables due to IAC, pursuant to sublease agreements, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. At
December 31, 2020, there were outstanding receivables of less than $0.1 million due from IAC, pursuant to sublease agreements, which were subsequently
paid in full in the first quarter of 2021.
Tax Sharing Agreement
The tax sharing agreement governs the rights, responsibilities, and obligations of the Company and IAC with respect to tax liabilities and benefits,
entitlements to refunds, preparation of tax returns, tax contests and other tax matters regarding U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes. Under the
tax sharing agreement, the Company is generally responsible and required to indemnify IAC for: (i) all taxes imposed with respect to any consolidated,
combined or unitary tax return of IAC or its subsidiaries that includes the Company or any of its subsidiaries to the extent attributable to the Company or
any of its subsidiaries, as determined under the tax sharing agreement, and (ii) all taxes imposed with respect to any of the Company's or its subsidiaries’
consolidated, combined, unitary or separate tax returns.
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had outstanding payables of $1.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, due to IAC pursuant to the tax
sharing agreement, which are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities,” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. There were no
payments to or refunds from IAC pursuant to this agreement during the year ended December 31, 2022. There were $1.5 million of payments to IAC
pursuant to this agreement during the year ended December 31, 2021.
Employee Matters Agreement
The employee matters agreement addresses certain compensation (including stock-based compensation) and benefit issues related to the allocation of
liabilities associated with: (i) employment or termination of employment, (ii) employee benefit plans and (iii) equity awards. Under the employee matters
agreement, the Company's employees participate in IAC’s U.S. health and welfare plans, 401(k) plan and flexible benefits plan and the Company
reimburses IAC for the costs of such participation. In the event IAC no longer retains shares representing at least 80% of the aggregate voting power of
shares entitled to vote in the election of the Company’s Board of Directors, Angi will no longer participate in IAC’s employee benefit plans, but will
establish its own employee benefit plans that will be substantially similar to the plans sponsored by IAC prior to the Combination.
In addition, the employee matters agreement requires the Company to reimburse IAC for the cost of any IAC equity awards held by Angi current and
former employees, with IAC having the ability to elect to receive payment in cash or shares of our Class B common stock. This agreement also provides
that IAC has the ability to require that stock appreciation rights granted prior to the closing of the Combination and equity awards denominated in shares of
our subsidiaries to be settled in either shares of our Class A common stock or IAC common stock. To the extent that shares of IAC common stock are
issued in settlement of these awards, the Company is obligated to reimburse IAC for the cost of those shares by issuing shares of our
88
Table of Contents
ANGI INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Class A common stock in the case of stock appreciation rights granted prior to the closing of the Combination and shares of our Class B common stock in
the case of equity awards denominated in shares of our subsidiaries.
Lastly, pursuant to the employee matters agreement, in the event of a distribution of Angi Inc. capital stock to IAC stockholders in a transaction
intended to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the IAC Board of Directors
has the exclusive authority to determine the treatment of outstanding IAC equity awards. Such authority includes (but is not limited to) the ability to
convert all or part of IAC equity awards outstanding immediately prior to the distribution into equity awards denominated in shares of our Class A
Common Stock, which we would be obligated to assume and which would be dilutive to our stockholders.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, no Class A or Class B common stock was issued to IAC pursuant to the employee matters agreement as
reimbursement for IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise and settlement of certain Angi Inc. stock appreciation rights.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, 0.2 million and 2.6 million shares of Angi Class B common stock and Class A common stock were issued to
IAC, respectively, pursuant to the employee matters agreement as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise
and vesting of IAC equity awards held by Angi employees.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, 0.3 million shares of Angi Class B common stock and no shares of Class A common stock were issued to IAC,
respectively, pursuant to the employee matters agreement as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise and
vesting of IAC equity awards held by Angi employees.
NOTE 15—BENEFIT PLANS
The Company’s employees in the United States are eligible to participate in a retirement savings program offered by IAC, which is qualified under
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the IAC/InterActiveCorp Retirement Savings Plan (the “IAC Plan”), participating employees may
contribute up to 50% of their pre-tax earnings, but not more than statutory limits. The current employer match under the IAC Plan is fifty cents for each
dollar a participant contributes in the IAC Plan, with a maximum contribution of 3% of a participant’s eligible earnings. Matching contributions under the
IAC Plan for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 were $9.8 million, $8.4 million, and $7.7 million, respectively. Matching contributions
are invested in the same manner as each participant’s voluntary contributions in the investment options provided under the IAC Plan. An investment option
in the IAC Plan is IAC common stock, but neither participant nor matching contributions are required to be invested in IAC common stock.
Internationally, the Company also has or participates in various benefit plans, primarily defined contribution plans. The Company’s contributions for
these plans for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 were $0.8 million, $0.7 million, and $0.6 million, respectively.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of the Company's Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), management, including our Chief Executive
Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-
15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the Company. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal
Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. Based on this assessment,
management has determined that, as of December 31, 2022, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective. The effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting
firm, as stated in their attestation report, included herein.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in
management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. See Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data and Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, which reports are incorporated herein by reference.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Angi Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Angi Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal
Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO
criteria). In our opinion, Angi Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2022, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated
balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations,
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes and the financial statement
schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a), and our report dated March 1, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of
internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the
applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

any class of the Corporation’s common stock then outstanding, the Corporation will also pay to the holders of each other class of the Corporation’s
common stock then outstanding an equal dividend per share. Dividends will be payable only as and when declared by the Board of Directors.
(2) If at any time a Share Distribution is to be made with respect to any class of the Corporation’s common stock, such Share
Distribution may be declared and paid only as follows:
(a) a Share Distribution
(i) consisting of shares of Class C common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable
for shares of Class C common stock) may be declared and paid to holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock and
Class C common stock, on an equal per share basis, or
(ii) consisting of (x) shares of Class A common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock) may be declared and paid to holders of shares of Class A common stock on an equal
per share basis, (y) shares of Class B common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class B
common stock) may be declared and paid to holders of shares of Class B common stock, on an equal per share basis, and (z) shares of
Class C common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class C common stock) may be
declared and paid to holders of shares of Class C common stock, on an equal per share basis; or
(b) a Share Distribution consisting of any class or series of securities of the Corporation or any other Person, other than
shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock or Class C common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable
for shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock or Class C common stock), may be declared and paid on the basis of a dividend of
common stock and Class C common stock,
(i) identical securities, on an equal per share basis, to holders of shares of Class A common stock, Class B
(ii) a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class A common stock, a separate class of
securities to holders of shares of Class B common stock and a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class C
common stock, on an equal per share basis,
series of securities to holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock, on an equal per share basis; or
(iii) a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class B common stock and a different class or
series of securities to holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, on an equal per share basis;
(iv) a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class C common stock and a different class or
provided, that,
(A) in connection with a Share Distribution pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv),
(1) such separate classes or series of securities (and, if the dividend consists of Convertible Securities, the Underlying
Securities) do not differ in any respect other than their relative voting rights (and any related differences in designation,
conversion, redemption and share distribution provisions, as applicable), with either
(X) holders of shares of Class B common stock receiving the class or series of securities having (or convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for securities having) the highest relative voting rights and the holders of shares of
Class A common stock and Class C common stock receiving securities of a class or series of securities having (or
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for securities having) lesser relative voting rights, or
(Y) holders of Class B common stock and Class A common stock receiving a class or series of securities having
(or convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for securities having) the highest relative voting rights and the
holders of shares of the Class C common stock receiving securities of a class or series of securities having (or
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for securities having) lesser relative voting rights,
in each case, without regard to whether such rights differ to a greater or lesser extent than the corresponding differences in
voting rights (and any related differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share distribution, as applicable) among
the shares of Class A common stock, the Class B common stock and the Class C common stock, and
(2) in the event the securities to be received by the holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock
consist of different classes or series of securities, with each such class or series of securities (or the Underlying Securities into
which such class is convertible or for which such class or series is exercisable or exchangeable) differing only with respect to the
relative voting rights of such class or series (and any related differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share
distribution provisions, as applicable), then such classes or series of securities will be distributed to the holders of shares of each
class of common stock (other than the Class B common stock) (A) as the Board of Directors determines or (B) such that the
relative voting rights (and any related differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share distribution provisions, as
applicable) of the class or series of securities (or the Underlying Securities) to be received by the holders of shares of each class
of common stock (other than the Class B common stock) corresponds to the extent practicable to the relative voting rights (and
any related differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share distribution provisions, as applicable) of such class of
common stock, as compared to the other class of common stock (other than the Class B common stock), and
(B) a dividend involving a class or series of securities of a Person other than the Corporation may be treated as an Asset Distribution
or as a Share Distribution as determined by the Board of Directors.
(3) Whenever a dividend in the form of an Asset Distribution is paid to the holders of any class or classes of common stock of the
Corporation then outstanding, the Corporation shall also pay a dividend, in cash and/or other property, to the holders of each other class of common stock
then outstanding, on an equal per share basis (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without requiring that such dividend be identical in form), in an amount, in
the case of a dividend consisting solely of cash, equal to the fair market value of such holders’ ownership interest (immediately prior to such Asset
Distribution) in the assets paid as a dividend pursuant to the Asset Distribution, or having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in
good faith), in the case of any other dividend, equal to the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) of such holders’
ownership interest (immediately prior to such Asset Distribution) in the assets paid as a dividend pursuant to the Asset Distribution.
(4) For the purposes of this Article IV Section D and Article IV Section G:
“Asset Distribution” means a dividend payable by delivery of an asset owned by the Corporation including shares of any class or series of
capital stock of any Person owned by the Corporation.
“Convertible Security” means any security which is, directly or indirectly, convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise exercisable for
another security.
“Person” means (a) an individual or any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, estate, trust, association, private foundation,
joint stock company or any other entity, or (b) “person” as such term is used in Section 355(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
and any successor thereto.
“Share Distribution” means a dividend payable (including an issuance made in connection with any stock split, reclassification or
recapitalization) in shares of any class of capital stock of the Corporation or any other Person, other securities of the Corporation or any other
Person (including Convertible Securities).
“Underlying Securities” means with respect to any class or series of Convertible Securities, the class or series of securities into which
such class or series of Convertible Securities is directly or indirectly
convertible, or for which such Convertible Securities are directly or indirectly exchangeable, or that such Convertible Securities evidence the right
to purchase or otherwise receive, directly or indirectly.
(5) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the dividend or other issuance by the Corporation of rights to
purchase capital stock, other securities or property pursuant to a “poison pill” stockholder rights plan shall not be subject to this Section D of this
Article IV.
E. Other Matters Affecting Holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock.
(1) Shares of Class B common stock shall be convertible into shares of Class A common stock of the Corporation at the option of
the holder thereof at any time on a share for share basis. Such conversion ratio shall in all events be equitably preserved in the event of any recapitalization
of the Corporation by means of a stock dividend on, or a stock split or combination of, outstanding shares of Class A common stock or Class B common
stock, or in the event of any merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Corporation with another corporation. Shares of Class A common stock
and shares of Class C common stock will not be convertible into shares of any other class of capital stock of the Corporation.

F. Preferred Stock.
The Board of Directors shall, by resolution, designate the powers, preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the shares
of Preferred Stock.
G. Determinations.
For purposes of this Article IV, the Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to, in good faith (a) make all determinations regarding
(1) whether or not a dividend is an equal dividend per share or is declared and paid on an equal per share basis and (ii) whether or not one or more classes
or series of securities, Convertible Securities or Underlying Securities differ in any respect other than their relative voting rights (and any related
differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share distribution provisions) and (b) interpret this Article IV and make any other determination
required herein. All such interpretations and determinations made by the Board of Directors shall be final, conclusive and binding. The Secretary of the
Corporation shall maintain a written record of any such determination made by the Board of Directors at the principal executive offices of the Corporation
and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any stockholder who makes a request therefor.
The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, alter or repeal Bylaws of the Corporation, but the Stockholders may make additional

employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including the heirs, executors, administrators or
estate of such person), shall be indemnified by the Corporation, in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation, to the full extent permitted from time to
time by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment,

provide prior to such amendment) or any other applicable laws as presently or hereinafter in effect. Without limiting the generality or the effect of the
foregoing, the Corporation may enter into one or more agreements with any person that provide for indemnification greater or different than that provided

in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of

ARTICLE XIV
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Exhibit 4.1
The following is a description of the capital stock of Angi Inc. ("Angi," "we," or "our") and does not purport to be complete. For a more detailed
description of our capital stock, see the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") and our amended and restated bylaws (the "Bylaws"). This description is subject to, and
qualified in its entirety by reference to, the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, all of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to
this Annual Report on Form 10-K, of which this Exhibit 4.1 is a part.
ANGI Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 5,500,000,000 shares of stock, comprised of 2,000,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value
$0.001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), 1,500,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"),
1,500,000,000 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Class C Common Stock"), and 500,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par
value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).
As of February 10, 2023, there were 82,763,685 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, 422,019,247 shares of Class B Common Stock
outstanding and no shares of Class C Common Stock or preferred stock outstanding. The number of authorized shares of any class of stock may be
increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all
then-outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and any outstanding series of preferred stock entitled to vote thereon, voting
together as one class. Shares of Class A Common Stock are registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”) and shares of Class B Common Stock are not registered pursuant to Section 12.
The rights of holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock are identical, except for the differences
described below under "—Voting Rights," "—Dividend Rights" and "—Conversion Rights." Any authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common
Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock are available for issuance by the ANGI board of directors without any further stockholder
action, subject to any limitations imposed by the Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the "Nasdaq Rules").
ANGI Common Stock
Voting Rights
Holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders. Holders of Class B Common
Stock are entitled to ten votes per share on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders. Holders of Class C Common Stock are not entitled to any votes per
share (except as, and then only to the extent, otherwise required by the laws of Delaware, in which case such holders are entitled to one one-hundredth of a
vote per share). Holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the
election of directors.
Dividend Rights
Holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock are entitled to ratably receive dividends (other than in the
event of a share distribution or an asset distribution, as further described below) if, as and when declared from time to time by the ANGI board of directors
in its discretion out of funds legally available for that purpose, after payment of any dividends required to be paid on any outstanding preferred stock.
Under Delaware law, we can only pay dividends either out of "surplus" or out of the current or the immediately preceding year's net profits. Surplus is
defined as the excess, if any, at any given time, of the total assets of a corporation over its total liabilities and statutory capital. The value of a corporation's
assets can be measured in a number of ways and may not necessarily equal their book value.
In a distribution of shares of ANGI common stock, we may distribute: (i) shares of Class C Common Stock (or securities convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class C Common Stock), on an equal per share basis, to holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common
Stock and Class C Common Stock or (ii) (x) shares of Class A Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of
1
Class A Common Stock), on an equal per share basis, to holders of Class A Common Stock, (y) shares of Class B Common Stock (or securities convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class B Common Stock), on an equal per share basis, to holders of Class B Common Stock and (z) shares
of Class C Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class C Common Stock), on an equal per share basis,
to holders of Class C Common Stock.
In a distribution of any other of our securities or the capital stock or other securities of another person or entity, we may choose to distribute:
(i) identical securities, on an equal per share basis, to holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock, (ii) a
separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock, a separate class of securities to holders of shares of Class B Common
Stock and a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class C Common Stock, on an equal per share basis, (iii) a separate class or series
of securities to holders of shares of Class B Common Stock and a different class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and
Class C Common Stock, on an equal per share basis or (iv) a separate class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class C Common Stock and a
different class or series of securities to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, on an equal per share basis, provided that,
in the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv), the different classes or series of securities to be distributed are not different in any respect other than their relative
voting rights (and any related differences in designation, conversion, redemption and share distribution provisions, as applicable), with either (x) holders of
shares of Class B Common Stock receiving the class or series of securities having the highest relative voting rights or (y) holders of shares of Class B
Common Stock and Class A Common Stock receiving a class or series of securities having the highest relative voting rights. A dividend involving a class
or series of securities of another person or entity may be treated as a share distribution or as an asset distribution as determined by our board of directors.
In a distribution of our assets (including shares of any class or series of capital stock of another person or entity owned by us) to holders of any class
or classes of common stock, a dividend in cash and/or other property will be paid to holders of each other class of common stock then outstanding on an
equal per share basis in an amount, in the case of a dividend consisting solely of cash, equal to the fair market value of such holders' ownership interest in
the assets paid as a dividend pursuant to the asset distribution, or having a fair market value, in the case of any other dividend, equal to the fair market value
of such holders' ownership interest in assets paid as a dividend pursuant to the asset distribution.
The ANGI board of directors has the power and authority to, in good faith, make all determinations regarding, among other things: (i) whether or not a
dividend is an equal dividend per share or is declared and paid on an equal per share basis, (ii) whether one or more classes or series of securities differ in
any respect other than their relative voting rights and (iii) any other interpretations that may be required under the dividend rights provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation described above.
Conversion Rights
Shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder at any time on a share for share
basis. The conversion ratio will in all events be equitably preserved in the event of any recapitalization of ANGI by means of a stock dividend on, or a
stock split or combination of, the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock or of Class B Common Stock, or in the event of any merger, consolidation
or other reorganization of ANGI with another corporation. Upon the conversion of a share of Class B Common Stock into a share of Class A Common
Stock, the applicable share of Class B Common Stock will be retired and will not be subject to reissue. Shares of Class A Common Stock and shares of
Class C Common Stock have no conversion rights.
Liquidation Rights
Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of ANGI, holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock are
entitled to receive ratably the assets available for distribution to the stockholders after the rights of holders of shares of preferred stock have been satisfied.
Other Matters
Shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock have no preemptive rights pursuant to the terms of the
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. There are no redemption or sinking fund
2
provisions applicable to shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock. All outstanding shares of Class A Common
Stock and of Class B Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
Listing
ANGI Class A Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "ANGI."
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for ANGI Class A Common Stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.
Preferred Stock
Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, shares of Preferred Stock are issuable from time to time, in one or more series, with the designations of
the series, the voting rights of the shares of the series (if any), the powers, preferences and relative, participation, optional or other special rights (if any),
and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as the ANGI board of directors from time to time may adopt by resolution (and without further
stockholder approval, subject to any limitation imposed by the Nasdaq Rules). The rights, preferences and privileges of such preferred stock may be greater
than, and may adversely affect, the rights of our common stock. Each series will consist of that number of shares as will be stated and expressed in the
certificate of designations providing for the issuance of the preferred stock of the series.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and Other Agreements
Certain provisions of the DGCL and certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws summarized below may be deemed to have an
anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in such stockholder's best
interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by our stockholders.
Multi-Class Structure
As discussed above, each share of Class B Common Stock has ten votes per share, while each share of Class A Common Stock (the only class of our
capital stock that is publicly traded) has one vote per share. Except as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or by the DGCL, the holders of Class A
Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock vote on all matters (including the election of directors) together as one class. Our Class C
Common Stock, of which no shares are outstanding, do not have any voting rights. IAC Inc. ("IAC") owns and controls all of the outstanding shares of
Class B Common Stock, which at this time constitutes a substantial majority of both the total voting power and the total number of shares of our total
outstanding capital stock. Even if IAC in the future owns significantly less than 50% of our total outstanding capital stock, because of the multi-class
structure of our common stock and the higher relative voting rights of Class B Common Stock compared to Class A Common Stock, IAC will be able to
control all matters in which the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock vote together as one class that are submitted to our stockholders
for approval. This concentrated control could discourage others from initiating any potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction that
other stockholders may view as beneficial.
Director Vacancies
The DGCL provides that board vacancies and newly created directorships may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office (even though less
than a quorum) or by a sole remaining director unless: (i) otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation or (ii) the
certificate of incorporation directs that a particular class of stock is to elect such director, in which case a majority of the other directors elected by such
class, or a sole remaining director elected by such class, will fill such vacancy.
The Bylaws provide that vacancies and newly created directorships may be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors elected by the
stockholders who vote on such directorship (even if less than a quorum) or the vote or written consent of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our
stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on such directorship (subject to the provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement, dated September 29,
2017 (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), by and between ANGI and IAC, concerning two ANGI-Designated Directors (as such term is defined in the
Investor Rights Agreement)).
No Cumulative Voting
3
Under the DGCL, cumulative voting for elections of directors is not permitted unless the corporation's certificate of incorporation specifically
provides for it. ANGI’s Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting.
Special Meetings of Stockholders
Under the DGCL, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the board of directors or by such other persons as may be authorized in the
certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of the corporation.
The Bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called by the chairman of the ANGI board of directors or by a majority of ANGI
directors. ANGI stockholders, however, may not call for a special meeting of stockholders.
Amending the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Under the DGCL, a certificate of incorporation may be amended if: (i) the board of directors adopts a resolution setting forth the proposed
amendment, declares the advisability of the amendment and directs that it be submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders (except that, unless required
by the certificate of incorporation, no meeting or vote of stockholders is required to adopt an amendment for certain specified changes) and (ii) the holders
of a majority of shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter approve the amendment, unless the certificate of incorporation requires the vote of a greater
number of shares. If a class vote on the amendment is required by the DGCL, or by the certificate of incorporation, approval by a majority of the
outstanding shares of stock of the class is required, unless a greater proportion is specified in the certificate of incorporation or by other provisions of the
DGCL. The Certificate of Incorporation provides that we reserve the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in such Certificate of
Incorporation, as prescribed by the DGCL.
Under the DGCL, the board of directors may adopt, amend or repeal a corporation's bylaws if so authorized in the certificate of incorporation. The
stockholders of a Delaware corporation also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws.
The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws allow the ANGI board of directors to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws by the vote of a majority of
all directors. Under the Investor Rights Agreement, however, up until the date on which the 2023 annual meeting of ANGI stockholders is held, IAC has
agreed not to vote in favor of any amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws that would be inconsistent with certain provisions of the
Investor Rights Agreement and would adversely affect the rights of holders of Class A Common Stock, other than as may be approved by the audit
committee of the ANGI board of directors and a majority of the holders of Class A Common Stock.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
Delaware companies are permitted to authorize shares that may be issued in the future. A substantial number of unissued shares of our Class A
Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances by the ANGI board of directors
without stockholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the Nasdaq Rules. Issuances of these shares could be utilized for a variety of corporate
purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of any authorized but unissued and
unreserved shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or
discourage an attempt to obtain control of ANGI by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Exclusive Jurisdiction
The Bylaws provide that a state court located within Delaware, or if no state court located within Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court
for the District of Delaware, shall be the exclusive forum for all of the following: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any
action asserting a claim for or based on breach of fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director or officer or other employee of ANGI to us or to
our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against ANGI or any of its current or former directors, officers or other employees pursuant to the
DGCL, the the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, (iv) any action asserting a claim relating to or involving us that is governed by the internal affairs
doctrine or (v) any action asserting an "internal corporate claim," as defined under the DGCL.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers
4
Under the DGCL, subject to specified limitations in the case of derivative suits brought by a corporation's stockholders in its name, a corporation may
indemnify any person who is made or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding on account of being a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation (or was serving at the request of the corporation in such capacity for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise) against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with the action, suit or proceeding, provided that there is a determination that: (i) the individual acted in good faith and in a manner the
individual reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation and (ii) in a criminal action or proceeding, the individual had
no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Without court approval, however, no indemnification may be made in respect of any
derivative action in which an individual is adjudged liable to the corporation, except to the extent the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which
such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified.
The DGCL requires indemnification of directors and officers for expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably relating to a successful
defense on the merits or otherwise of a derivative or third party action.
Under DGCL, a corporation may advance expenses relating to the defense of any proceeding to directors and officers upon the receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the individual to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified.
The DGCL permits the adoption of a provision in a corporation's certificate of incorporation limiting or eliminating the monetary liability of a director
to a corporation or its stockholders by reason of a director's breach of the fiduciary duty of care. The DGCL does not permit any limitation of the liability of
a director for: (i) breaching the duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith, (iii) engaging in intentional
misconduct or a known violation of law, (iv) obtaining an improper personal benefit from a transaction or (v) paying a dividend or approving a stock
repurchase or redemption that was illegal under applicable law.
In addition, the Certificate of Incorporation provides that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by law. Under
the Bylaws, we are also expressly required to advance certain expenses to our directors and officers and are permitted to carry directors' and officers'
insurance providing indemnification for our directors and officers for some liabilities.
Waiver of Corporate Opportunity of IAC and Officers and Directors of IAC
The DGCL permits the adoption of a provision in a corporation's certificate of incorporation renouncing any interests or expectancy of a corporation
in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, specified business opportunities or specified classes or categories of business opportunities that are
presented to the corporation or one or more of its officers, director or stockholders.
The Certificate of Incorporation includes a "corporate opportunity" provision that renounces any of ANGI's interests or expectancy: (i) to participate in
any business of IAC or (ii) in any potential transaction or matter that may constitute a corporate opportunity for both (a) IAC and (b) ANGI. Under this
provision, ANGI further recognizes that: (x) any of its directors or officers who are also officers, directors, employees or other affiliates of IAC or its
affiliates (except that ANGI and its subsidiaries will not be deemed affiliates of IAC or its affiliates for purposes of this provision) and (y) IAC itself has no
duty to offer or communicate information regarding such a corporate opportunity. The provision generally provides that neither IAC nor ANGI officers or
directors who are also officers or directors of IAC or its affiliates will be liable to ANGI or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of:
(A) such person's participation in any business on behalf of IAC or (ii) the fact that any such person pursues or acquires any corporate opportunity for the
account of IAC or its affiliates, directs or transfers such corporate opportunity to IAC or its affiliates, or does not communicate information regarding such
corporate opportunity to ANGI. This renunciation does not extend to corporate opportunities expressly offered to ANGI officers or directors solely in their
capacities as an officer and/or director of ANGI.
