Our marketplace, delivered through the web and mobile applications, gives consumers powerful tools to research homes and neighborhoods and enables real estate professionals to efficiently market their listings and attract new clients. We believe we deliver the best home search experience by combining our superior user interface with our comprehensive database of real estate properties, local insights, and user-generated content. We also offer a comprehensive suite of free and subscription products that provide real estate professionals with access to transaction-ready consumers and help them to grow and manage their online presence. In the year ended December 31, 2013, we had 38.8 million monthly unique visitors. As of December 31, 2013, we had more than 437,000 active real estate professionals in our Trulia marketplace and 157,000 active real estate professionals using our Market Leader software and services. Approximately 59,700 of these real estate professionals were paying subscribers (assuming 20% overlap between Trulia subscribers and Marker Leader’s premium subscribers). We empower consumers to make more informed housing decisions by delivering unparalleled insights and information on homes, neighborhoods, and real estate professionals through an intuitive and engaging user experience. Our large, continually refreshed, and searchable database contains more than 113.2 million properties, including 4.0 million homes for sale and rent. We supplement listings data with local information on schools, crime, and neighborhood amenities to provide unique insights into each community. In addition, we harness rich, insightful user-generated content from our active community of contributors, which includes consumers, local enthusiasts, and real estate professionals. With more than 11.8 million unique user contributions, we believe we have the largest collection of user-generated content on homes, neighborhoods, and real estate professionals. We enable real estate professionals to better promote themselves and their listings, connect with transaction-ready consumers and manage ongoing relationships with potential buyers through our online and mobile marketing products, including personalized, customer-branded websites with multiple listing service integration that are optimized to generate consumer response. Our free products allow real estate professionals to build their personal brand by creating an online profile, contributing content to our marketplace, leveraging social media for endorsements, and establishing their presence through mobile features such as “check-ins.” Our subscription products provide a comprehensive end-to-end platform for real estate professionals, enabling them to increase their visibility, promote their listings in search results, target mobile users, generate more highly qualified leads from our large audience of transaction-ready consumers, and effectively manage these leads until a transaction has closed. We further enable real estate professionals to cultivate clients and leverage a library of sales and marketing materials in order to design, create, publish, and manage their own personalized marketing campaigns through our proprietary customer relationship management products. We believe that our consumer audience is highly motivated and ready to purchase homes, as supported by our surveys conducted between January 2013 and December 2013 in which 77% of over 485,000 respondents contacting real estate professionals through our marketplace indicated that they are planning to move in the next six months, and 44% of over 348,000 respondents stated that they are pre-approved for a mortgage. We believe that the combination of our compelling solution with our transaction-ready audience results in a high return on investment for real estate professionals who purchase our subscription products. We are a leading mobile platform for the home search process and mobile devices are increasingly critical to consumers and real estate professionals. We have introduced iPhone, iPad, Android Phone, Android Tablet and Kindle Fire applications that provide tailored mobile experiences, which has led to rapid growth in the mobile use of our solution. In the year ended December 31, 2013, our aggregate mobile monthly unique visitors were 14.3 million across Trulia and our wholly owned subsidiary Market Leader, Inc., of which Trulia had over 13.0 million mobile monthly unique visitors, an increase of 92% over 2012. Our mobile users are more likely than our web users to contact real estate professionals through our marketplace. 3 Item 1. Business Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our online marketplace is experiencing rapid growth. Monthly unique visitors to our marketplace increased to 38.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from 23.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, or a 68% increase, and our subscribers increased to approximately 59,700 (assuming a 20% overlap with Market Leader’s premium subscribers) as of December 31, 2013 from 24,443 as of December 31, 2012, a 144% increase. We expect that our efforts to maintain or increase consumer traffic and subscribers are likely to include, among other things, significant increases to our marketing spending and significant expenditures to increase the number of our engineering and product development personnel. For example, we recently announced a national marketing campaign that is designed to attract serious home buyers and sellers to our marketplace and that we expect will enable us to connect even more transaction-ready consumers with real estate professionals. We generate revenue primarily from sales of subscription products to real estate professionals. We also generate revenue from display advertising sold to leading real estate and consumer brand advertisers seeking to reach our attractive audience. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we generated revenue of $143.7 million, $68.1 million and $38.5 million, respectively. During the same periods, we had net losses of $17.8 million, $10.9 million and $6.2 million, respectively. Industry and Challenges The residential real estate industry, which we estimate accounts for more than a trillion dollars in annual spending in the United States, is undergoing a profound transformation. Technology is changing the way that consumers search for homes and the way in which real estate professionals attract clients and build their businesses. In addition, as the U.S. housing market recovers from its recent unprecedented downturn, real estate professionals are seeking more effective ways to market themselves and achieve a greater return on their marketing investment. These trends present significant opportunities to capitalize on shifts in behavior. Historically, consumers lacked readily available access to detailed and comprehensive information essential to making housing decisions, relying instead on disparate sources of information such as real estate professionals, local newspapers, and word of mouth. Over time, more information has become available online and, as a result, the Internet has become a primary source of research for housing decisions. According to a November 2012 survey by the National Association of Realtors, a trade organization for real estate professionals, 90% of home buyers used the Internet to research homes. Additionally, the use of mobile devices for home searches has become more prevalent. According to a 2012 survey by The Real Estate Book, a real estate website, 52% of respondents reported using a mobile device to look for homes, with 85% of non-users stating that they would consider using a mobile device for their next search. As consumers increasingly research homes online, real estate professionals are shifting their marketing expenditures online to reach prospective clients. While initially these real estate professionals focused their spending on email, search, and creating websites with listings, now these professionals are increasingly using online real estate marketplaces to generate leads and using technology to manage their businesses. With technology driving the home search process online, consumers, real estate professionals, and advertisers face distinct challenges. Consumers are challenged to effectively compile and use fragmented information, gain local insights, and obtain information on the go. Real estate professionals are challenged to reach today’s online consumers, target the right leads, manage their businesses while on the go, and optimize their marketing spend. Advertisers are challenged to efficiently reach the right consumers while maximizing the effectiveness of their advertising. Market Opportunity We believe that there are significant opportunities to address the challenges faced by consumers, real estate professionals, and advertisers. Borrell Associates, Inc., an advertising research and consulting firm, estimated in a September 2013 industry paper that $27.3 billion would be spent in 2013 on real estate-related marketing in the United States. According to a November 2012 survey by the National Association of Realtors, 90% of home 4 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements buyers used the Internet to research homes. However, according to the Borrell Associates report, only 55.8% of the real estate marketing dollars in the United States were projected to be spent online in 2013. We believe that there is a disconnect between where marketing dollars are spent and where consumers research homes. Therefore, we expect that real estate-related marketing spend will continue to migrate online from traditional channels. The Trulia Marketplace Our marketplace provides the following key benefits for consumers, real estate professionals, and advertisers: Key benefits for consumers Key benefits for real estate professionals 5 • Large, continually refreshed, searchable database of homes for sale and rent. We provide consumers with access to a large, continually refreshed, and searchable database of properties. We enable consumers to customize their searches with property-specific filters to obtain up-to-date listings that are rich with property facts, price, and sale data. • Trusted insights, social recommendations, and proprietary analytics that provide local context. We provide consumers with local insights, critical to a successful home search, not available elsewhere on an easy-to-use and comprehensive basis. These insights include information about schools, crime, neighborhood amenities, and real estate professionals. • Anytime and anywhere access . Our marketplace is accessible anytime and anywhere on the web and on major mobile platforms. Since the introduction of our first mobile application in 2008, mobile use of our marketplace has grown rapidly. • Broad reach to transaction-ready consumers. We provide real estate professionals the ability to connect with our large audience of transaction-ready consumers at scale on the web and through our mobile applications. We believe that a large portion of consumers using Trulia do not use our primary competitors’ websites, and that this enables real estate professionals on Trulia to effectively identify and market themselves to consumers not easily found anywhere else. • Products that boost presence and deliver high-quality leads . Our free products enable real estate professionals to create and manage an online profile, promote their personal brand with consumers by contributing content to our marketplace, and leverage social media for endorsements. Our subscription products enable real estate professionals to boost their visibility, promote their listings in search results, and generate more high-quality leads from potential home buyers. • Comprehensive end-to-end software-as-a-service-based marketing services . We provide software-as-a-service customer relationship management (CRM) tools, personalized websites and marketing tools to help our real estate professional customers manage and cultivate prospects. By automating many of the repetitive tasks that are required in order to follow up and communicate with potential clients, these tools allow our customers to focus on transacting their current business while efficiently marketing their services to potential clients, maintaining a pipeline of future business opportunities. • Anytime and anywhere access to critical information and tools . We offer mobile applications designed specifically for real estate professionals to take their business on the go. Using our mobile applications, real estate professionals can access critical information that they need to conduct their business, including listings details, contacts, driving directions, and local information about neighborhoods. • Significant return on investment . We believe that our subscription products deliver a high return on investment to real estate professionals. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Key benefits for advertisers Our Strengths We believe that our competitive advantage reflects the following strengths: 6 • Attractive audience . We believe our audience is highly attractive to consumer brand advertisers. A substantial portion of our audience is either college educated, has a household income above $75,000, or is in the 25 to 54 age group. U.S. consumers with these characteristics tend to spend more of their annual income on home maintenance, insurance, household furnishings, apparel and services, and entertainment than the average consumer, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics 2012 Consumer Expenditure Survey, which makes our audience attractive for consumer brand advertisers. • Display advertising products that efficiently reach target consumers . We enable our advertisers to reach segments of our audience that are attractive to them. Advertisers benefit from improved reach, impact, relevancy, and measurement of their marketing campaigns in our marketplace. • Empower customers by delivering unparalleled insights and a superior user experience. We are one of the leading online real estate marketplaces and provide consumers with powerful tools and unique content that together deliver valuable insights into homes, neighborhoods, and real estate professionals. For example, our crime heat maps provide consumers with a view into neighborhood safety and our Facebook integration gives consumers recommendations on real estate professionals from people in their social network. We invest significant resources into technology development and product design to create a superior user interface that provides compelling features and rich functionality for our users. • Most Comprehensive Platform for Real Estate Professionals . We believe we have the most comprehensive, end-to-end platform for real estate professionals to grow and manage their businesses. We provide innovative lead generation products for real estate professionals to market themselves to consumers and generate new business. We also provide an integrated software platform with powerful analytics though which real estate professionals cultivate these leads and turn them into transactions. Moreover, we provide this comprehensive platform at scale, servicing five of the ten largest brokers and three of the largest real estate franchises in the United States. • Large, differentiated, transaction-ready audience . Our website and mobile applications have attracted 38.8 million monthly unique visitors in the year ended December 31, 2013 and, based on data from comScore, Inc., a marketing research company, a significant portion of our visitors do not visit our primary competitors’ websites. For instance, according to comScore, during each month in 2013 and 2012, more than 45% and 54%, respectively, of our audience did not visit Zillow.com. We believe that our audience is highly motivated and ready to purchase homes, as supported by our surveys conducted between January 2013 and December 2013 in which 77% of over 485,000 respondents contacting real estate professionals through our marketplace are planning to move in the next six months, and 44% of over 348,000 respondents stated that they are pre-approved for a mortgage. • Strong mobile monetization . We believe that we are one of the few companies that is monetizing its mobile products at a higher rate than web products. Since we launched our subscription product for mobile devices in May 2012, we have sold this product at prices that yield a higher average monthly revenue per subscriber than our subscription products that are not focused on mobile devices. In addition, our users are more likely to contact real estate professionals through our mobile applications than our website. • High ROI for real estate professionals . We believe our subscription products provide compelling value and a better return on investment than other marketing channels. On average, during the year ended December 31, 2013 paying subscribers received more than nine times the number of monthly leads compared to real estate professionals who only used our free products. • Powerful network effects driven by unique content . We benefit from a self-reinforcing network effect that helps build our brand, drives user engagement in our marketplace, and attracts more users to our Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our Strategy Our goal is to build the leading online real estate marketplace. We intend to focus on the following key strategies in pursuit of our goal: 7 website and mobile applications. Consumers post questions in our marketplace, attracting real estate professionals who add more content by answering these questions, which in turn attracts more consumers to our marketplace. • Big data and analytics platform . We employ proprietary advanced analytics and heuristics capabilities to aggregate, filter, and analyze large amounts of data from disparate sources that we have cultivated over the years. Our expertise in handling large amounts of externally-sourced data and combining it with user activity data collected from our marketplace allows us to improve the user experience by developing innovative new tools and new functionality. • Expand our audience and increase user engagement . We intend to grow our large, transaction-ready audience by expanding our marketing efforts to consumers who are in the market and ready to move and by continuing to offer superior products for consumers. We plan to launch a multi-channel marketing campaign in 2014 to drive increases in audience and user engagement. We plan to continuously enhance and refresh our database of homes, partner with third parties to add new and relevant local content, and encourage our users to contribute useful content. We also plan to develop new features and tools that deepen our users’ engagement with our website and mobile applications, and to promote and foster interaction in our vibrant user community. • Grow the number of real estate professionals in our marketplace . We intend to further penetrate the large base of more than 2.8 million real estate professionals in the United States by communicating the value proposition of our free and subscription products, growing our audience of transaction-ready consumers, and creating additional products. • Increase revenue . We plan to increase our revenue by selling more subscription and advertising products and by optimizing our pricing. • Increase brand awareness . We plan to launch a multi-channel marketing campaign in 2014 to drive awareness of our brand, especially among consumers in the market ready to move. We also plan to continue to grow our brand by providing our users with superior and innovative products. • Pursue strategic opportunities . We plan to pursue acquisitions of complementary businesses and strategic partnerships to help us execute on and accelerate our growth plans. • Pursue adjacent opportunities . We plan to pursue opportunities in a number of large adjacent markets, such as rentals, mortgages, home improvement, and agent tools, and to expand our business internationally. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Data Management of data is a critical component of our solution. We manage over one terabyte of data on a daily basis. For Trulia.com, our Trulia mobile applications and our Trulia partner network, the graphic below illustrates how we organize data as listings data, local information, and user-generated content: Listings data We refresh and supplement the Trulia listings database of over 113.2 million properties and for sale and for rent listings with data we receive from thousands of feeds on a daily basis. We receive feeds covering millions of new and existing for sale and for rent listings every day from MLSs, real estate brokerages, real estate agents, real estate listings aggregators, and other third parties. We also obtain detailed ownership and property data from vendors who collect and digitize information from public county records . We process this wealth of data through our proprietary algorithms and heuristic data validation engine to sort, augment, and select the most up-to-date and accurate data to display . As a next step, we apply our search logic to the data, and overlay additional local information on schools, crime, neighborhood amenities, home values, and other community information. The final product is a complete profile of a property or listing with property facts, price data, local information, and agent contact information, which we publish in our marketplace in an intuitive and engaging user experience. In addition, for our Market Leader solutions, we process data feeds from approximately 500 multiple listing services to populate the more than 126,000 real estate professional websites we host. Local information We inform consumers on what it is like to live in a neighborhood by delivering insights on schools, crime, neighborhood amenities, commute times, home values, historical earthquake, flood and other natural disaster data, and other community information. 8 • Schools. We provide information on schools by district, type, parent reviews, and ratings, which is based on data that we receive from third parties . We overlay this information onto our maps and color code the data points with a sliding color scale to differentiate between schools with low, medium, or high ratings. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Additionally, we have an agreement with Google to use its basic maps, over which we integrate our proprietary insights. User-generated content The user-generated data in our marketplace is organized under the Advice section of our website by type of content, questions and answers, blogs, real estate guides, and along topics relevant to our audience such as local information, tips on home buying and selling, and observed market trends . We also allow real estate professionals to publish their own profile and receive recommendations from their clients under the Find an Agent section of our website. The content in our marketplace is generated by our vibrant community of users . Users can vote on the quality of content using our “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” icons and can follow the voting results . Additionally, users can “flag” inappropriate content on our site, which is escalated to our Trulia community team whose enforcement actions follow the terms and conditions for user-submitted content as published on our website. Our Products for Consumers Our products for consumers focus on helping them find the right home. Our consumer products are offered for free and provide a robust set of tools for evaluating where to live. 9 • Crime. We receive raw data from third parties about the occurrence, type, location, and description of non-violent and violent crime . We conduct proprietary analysis on the data and aggregate our findings into a tabular format or into our proprietary crime heat map . Our crime heat map provides an overview, visualized through a sliding color scale of the incidence of crime in the area and highlights in callout text boxes the number of violent crimes in the area . • Enhanced map visualizations of natural disasters . We enable consumers to view historical earthquake and flood data, allowing them to assess the risk of these natural disasters on a block-by-block level. We also provide interactive natural hazard maps pinpointing areas across the United States that are prone to hurricanes, wildfires, and tornadoes. With these maps, users are able to visualize where their dream home is located relative to where natural hazards have hit. Our map visualizations are also fully integrated into our mobile offerings. • Neighborhood amenities . We provide the location, names, and ratings of nearby restaurants, grocery stores, banks, and gas stations on our maps based on data that we receive from Yelp. • Home values. Based on our analysis of the sales records and property information in our database, we have developed market- and local-level views of the trends in price, number of sales, and number of listings by property type and location, which we publish on our listings pages and on the Local Info section of our website in interactive chart formats and in our proprietary heat map format. • Other community information. We analyze data from the U.S. Census Bureau to provide users with information on how the median household and family income, age of homes, and commute times of a neighborhood compare to those of the city. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Searchable database Search We maintain one of the largest searchable databases of homes for sale and rent in the United States. Our database includes more than 113.2 million properties with 4.0 million listings of homes for sale and rent. We provide users with the ability to search our database along a variety of parameters as described below: Our users can customize their search along as few or many features as they prefer and by keyword search of specific property attributes. From our search results, users have access to the detailed data on each home in our database, photos of the home, and the for sale or for rent listing information. Additionally, we enhance our users’ experience by giving them the choice to display their search results in listings or map formats. The map format provides the added functionality of polygonal search, which enables users to delineate the precise area of their searches. We offer products that further enhance our users’ experience with visually impactful maps, graphics, and photos of homes and neighborhood characteristics. Trulia Estimates Trulia Estimates is our estimate of an off-market property’s value based on our proprietary analysis of relevant home data such as recent sales of similar homes and property facts. This search function allows users to conduct a precise search by street address to find our estimate of the value of that home. Additionally, home owners may claim their home in our database and edit their home’s specific facts and details so that our proprietary system can revise its estimated value. Rich insights and content We provide users with rich insights and content that are critical to a successful home search and that cannot be discovered through home listings data alone. We deliver these insights through the following products: 10 All Properties Sale properties only Rentals only Sold properties only City Bedrooms Bathrooms Price range Square footage Property type Keyword search Open houses Year built Lot size Foreclosure type MLS ID Price per square foot Pets Amenities Time since sale date • Local Info .

We provide consumers with a directory that includes more than 1.0 million real estate professionals that is searchable by location, name, and type of professional. Our platform integrates Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Mobile Our products are accessible anytime and anywhere online and on mobile devices. We provide the following differentiated Trulia mobile applications for consumers on several major mobile platforms and devices: Our Products for Real Estate Professionals We sell three sets of products to real estate professionals on a subscription basis. The first set of products enables real estate professionals to promote themselves to potential buyers or sellers by targeting a local market area. Real estate professionals purchase subscriptions to these products for their desired city or zip code, at a fixed monthly price, for periods ranging from one month to one year, with pricing depending on demand, location, and the percentage of market share purchased or estimated number of leads. These products include: 11 with Facebook to leverage the power of social networks for clients to recommend real estate professionals and for real estate professionals to take advantage of online “word of mouth” referrals. For example, a consumer searching for a real estate agent in our marketplace can quickly find whether someone in their social network has recommended an agent in a particular area in which they are looking. • Value information . Each property detail page features information and analytics on the property value, including price comparisons of similar properties based on median home sale data by neighborhood, zip code and city, price history and trends, and property taxes based on assessed property values. We believe this information helps users better assess the value of the property beyond what can be gleaned from price data alone. • Mortgage .

Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our second set of products allows real estate professionals to receive prominent placement of their listings in our search results. Real estate professionals sign up for new subscriptions to this product at a fixed monthly price for periods that generally range from 1 month to 24 months. This set of products includes: Our third set of products is our comprehensive software-as-a-service that allows real estate professionals to manage and cultivate clients and potential clients by automating daily tasks and efficiently marketing their services. We charge real estate professionals subscription fees for our software-as-a-service products. We also generate revenue through enterprise marketing agreements with real estate franchise networks. We provide a base level software-as-a-service product to all agents and/or brokerages in these franchise networks in exchange for certain minimum payments from the real estate franchise networks. We also generate revenue through the sale of premium software and marketing products to individual agents, teams and brokerage offices within these real estate franchise networks. With our software-as-a-service-based marketing products, we offer a bundle of services that may include some or all of the following: We also offer real estate professionals a set of free products that allows them to promote themselves and their listings online and to connect with consumers searching to buy or sell homes. Our free products include: 12 • Trulia Pro .

Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our Products for Advertisers We sell display media advertising on a cost-per-impression and cost-per-click basis to national advertisers seeking to reach the large and attractive audience for our online properties and those of our publisher partners. We display their advertisements on our home page and on individual web pages through graphical displays and text links, and help these customers optimize their advertisements’ effectiveness through our robust targeting capabilities. We also offer display media advertising on our mobile website that is optimized for mobile device web browsers. Seasonality From time to time, we experience seasonality in subscription revenue and display advertising due to fluctuations in traffic to our website and mobile applications. During the fourth quarter of each year, traffic to our marketplace has historically declined and our revenue has historically grown more slowly than in other quarters or has declined sequentially. Conversely, we typically experience higher growth in traffic and revenue during the spring and summer months, when consumers are more likely to buy new homes. We expect that seasonality will continue to affect traffic in our marketplace, as well as our revenue from subscriptions and advertising. We rely on advertising to attract consumers to our Market Leader websites and to generate traffic and leads on these websites. As a result, we are subject to seasonal fluctuations in advertising rates and marketing services. Changing consumer behavior at various times throughout the year affects our advertising expenses. We expect that seasonal fluctuations in advertising costs will affect our operating expenses, as well as our operating margins. Technology and Engineering Product development and innovation are core pillars of our engineering culture that aims to delight our users and customers with our products. We provide our web and mobile products using a combination of in-house and third-party technology and products. Big data and proprietary algorithms. We have developed our technology platform to handle data at large scale. On a daily basis, we process several million home listings from thousands of data feeds through our proprietary algorithms and heuristic data validation engine to sort, augment, and select the most up-to-date and accurate data to display. Infrastructure. We currently manage our www.trulia.com website and mobile applications from four locations. The primary location where we host our production environment, is within a shared data center in Santa Clara, California. We also placed into service a second hosted facility, located in Denver, Colorado in 2013, where we support our production environment and provide redundancy, backup, and load balancing. We use a third hosted facility, located in Oakland, California, for production service backup and for our development environment. Our website and mobile applications are designed to have high availability, from the Internet connectivity providers we choose, to the servers, databases, and networking hardware that we deploy. Our Market Leader operations are hosted in Bellevue, Washington, at co-location facilities in Kent, Washington and at other locations operated by third parties. We design our systems such that the failure of any individual 13 • Agent training and advice blogs. We publish two blogs, Trulia Pro and Trulia Corporate , written by real estate industry experts with whom we partner to provide tips, advice, and education for buyers, sellers, and renters. • Tools and widgets. We offer real estate professionals a number of tools and widgets that they can incorporate into their personal websites to display local real estate information such as a slideshow widget to play photos of properties or a widget to broadcast their contributions on Trulia Voices on their blog or website. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements component is not expected to affect the overall availability of our platform. We also leverage content delivery networks and use other third-party cloud computing services, including map-related and ad serving services, to ensure fast and local access to content. We employ a host of encryption, antivirus, firewall, monitoring, and patch-management technology to protect and maintain our systems. Innovation. In addition to our new product development efforts, we encourage technological advances by directing a portion of our engineering team’s time towards organized innovation days. Each quarter, our product managers and engineers share ideas and experiments and recruit their peers to join their projects to bring a new concept to life. As progress is shared with the larger group, these new ideas receive additional input and product planning and are frequently the basis of new products and features we offer. Agile methodology and quality focus. Our software development methodology is agile and promotes teamwork, collaboration, and process adaptability throughout the life cycle of a development project. We believe this methodology yields robust, high quality, efficient, and nimble software development. We also invest heavily in the quality of our technology with robust testing at each stage in our development process. In June 2012, we entered into a Platform Services Agreement with Move Sales, Inc., or ListHub, which provides us with a substantial portion of the unique listings in our marketplace. This agreement supersedes our prior agreement with ListHub for the provision by ListHub of listings to us. Under the terms of this agreement, ListHub grants to us a nonexclusive license to display listings on our platform and use these listings for the purpose of providing real estate professionals with information relating to lead generation management and advertising products. This agreement contains a 48-month term and renews automatically for additional one year terms unless canceled upon the provision of 90 days prior notice by either party. This agreement is not cancelable by ListHub except in the case of material uncured breach by us or our filing for bankruptcy, insolvency or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver is appointed on our behalf. We maintain our primary technology infrastructure at a facility in Santa Clara, California maintained by Equinix Operating Company, Inc., or Equinix. Equinix provides data center space to us under the terms of a master service agreement. This agreement terminates on the earlier of the date that it is terminated by either party or the last order made under the agreement terminates or expires. This agreement is not cancelable by Equinix except in the case of material uncured breach by us, the suspension by Equinix three or more times during any twelve month period of its services pursuant to the terms of this agreement, our liquidation, cessation to do business or insolvency, or the condemnation of the physical space subject to this agreement. Marketing Our principal marketing strategy has been to develop a superior user experience that will drive audience growth and brand recognition. We have not historically spent significantly on marketing programs, but have focused on organic and viral growth driven by our user base. We currently expect that our marketing and product development expenses are likely to significantly increase as we seek to attract additional consumers and real estate professionals to our marketplace. For example, we recently announced plans to launch a multi-channel, national marketing campaign in 2014 to drive awareness of our brand, especially among consumers in the market ready to move. As our consumer audience has grown, real estate professionals have followed consumers to Trulia. We have also grown our brand among real estate professionals and the real estate industry through tradeshow participation, social engagement, and ongoing education via webinars, newsletters, and word of mouth. 14 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements In addition, our media outreach programs have been major drivers in growing our brand. We publish a series of blogs and actively use social media to share and spread content on a variety of topics to elevate our brand, including: These reports are used by, and our Chief Economist is quoted regularly in, major news outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, The New York Times, Time Magazine, and U.S. News & World Report. We also cultivate our brand awareness through social media channels, such as Facebook and Twitter. We expect that our efforts to maintain or increase consumer traffic and subscribers are likely to include, among other things, significant increases to our marketing spending and significant expenditures to increase the number of our engineering and product development personnel. Customers Real estate professionals that pay for our subscription products include: The majority of our real estate professional subscribers are agents. As of December 31, 2013, we had more than 437,000 active real estate professionals in our Trulia marketplace and 157,000 active real estate professionals using our Market Leader software and services. Approximately 59,700 of these real estate professionals were paying subscribers (assuming a 20% overlap between Trulia subscribers and Market Leader’s premium subscribers). A key focus of our sales and marketing activities has been to further penetrate the large 15 • Trends in the real estate market. We analyze publicly available data in combination with the rich data and content in our marketplace to create unique and proprietary insights on real estate trends, which we publish on our Trulia Trends blog.

Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements base of more than 2.8 million real estate professionals in the United States. If we are unable to increase the number of total subscribers in our marketplace, our revenue may not grow and our operating results could suffer. Our advertising solutions are purchased by a diverse cross-section of brand advertisers that operate within the real estate ecosystem, and those that seek to reach our highly educated and affluent audience. In each of the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the ten largest advertising partners for the respective period accounted for more than 65%, 63%, and 54%, respectively, of our media revenue. No customer represented 10% or more of total revenue during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011. One customer accounted for 13.0% and 10.4% of our gross accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively Sales and Customer Support We have dedicated sales teams that support our marketplace business and our display advertising business. For our marketplace business, the majority of our sales are made by our inside sales team that sells our subscription products to real estate professionals. Our inside sales teams are located in our Bellevue, San Francisco, and Denver offices and attract new subscribers through a combination of outbound calling and inbound customer requests generated from our website and marketing activities. We also have a field sales team that sells our marketplace products at larger deal sizes to real estate brokers, franchisors, and builders. For our display advertising business, we maintain a field sales team based in New York, to specifically target large advertising customers in the real estate and related content categories, such as insurance companies, mortgage providers, and home improvement companies, as well as other brand advertisers that seek to reach our audience. Our field sales team develops direct relationships with these advertisers and the agencies that serve them. We place a high value on providing quality support to our users, marketplace subscribers, and advertisers. Our customer support team, based in Bellevue, San Francisco and Denver, responds to commercial and technical questions from our users and advertisers. Competition The markets in which we operate are highly competitive and fragmented. Consumers research homes through a variety of sources. Similarly, real estate professionals use a variety of marketing channels to promote themselves and find clients. Consequently, we face competition from a variety of direct and indirect channels, and we believe we compete favorably. Competition for consumers We compete to attract consumers to our websites and mobile applications primarily on the basis of the breadth and quality of listings; user experience; the breadth, depth, and relevance of the insights on homes, neighborhoods, and real estate professionals; brand and reputation; and the quality of mobile products. Our principal competitors for consumers include: 16 • Print media, including local newspapers, magazines, and home/apartment guide publications; • Online real estate marketplaces such as Homes.com, MSN Real Estate, Realtor.com, Yahoo! Real Estate, and Zillow.com; • Online brokerage service providers such as Redfin and ZipRealty; • MLSs across the United States; Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Competition for real estate professionals We compete for a share of real estate professionals’ overall marketing spend with traditional, offline media, and other online marketing channels. We compete primarily on the basis of the size and attractiveness of the consumer audience; quality and measurability of leads; perceived return on investment; effectiveness of marketing and workflow tools; and quality of mobile products. Our principal competitors for real estate professionals include: Competition for advertisers We face competition to attract advertisers to market their products on our website. The basis of competition includes size, demographics, and overall attractiveness of an audience; pricing; and the ability to target desired audience segments.

Our efforts to enforce or protect our proprietary rights may be ineffective and could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, which could harm our business and operating results.

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, before making a decision to invest in our common stock. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. We have a limited operating history in an evolving industry, which makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not be successful. We have a limited operating history in an evolving industry that may not develop as expected. Assessing our business and future prospects is challenging in light of the risks and difficulties we may encounter. These risks and difficulties include our ability to: If the demand for residential real estate information online does not develop as we expect, or if we fail to address the needs of consumers, real estate professionals, or advertisers, our business will be harmed. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could harm our business and cause our operating results to suffer. 19 Item 1A. Risk Factors • increase the number of consumers using our websites and mobile applications; • continue to obtain home listing information, as well as information on schools, crime, commute times, neighborhood amenities, rental prices and historical earthquake and flood data; • increase the number of real estate professionals subscribing to our products; • increase the revenue from real estate professionals subscribing to our products; • increase the revenue from advertisers on our websites; • successfully develop and deploy new features and products; • encourage and foster the growth of user-generated content; • increase our brand awareness among consumers and real estate professionals; • successfully compete with other companies that are currently in, or may in the future enter, the business of providing residential real estate information online and on mobile applications, as well as with companies that provide this information offline; • successfully compete with existing and future providers of other forms of offline, online, and mobile advertising; • successfully compete with existing and future providers of customer relationship management (CRM) tools and other solutions that help real estate professionals manage and grow their businesses; • successfully navigate fluctuations in the real estate market; • effectively manage the growth of our business; • successfully expand our business into adjacent markets, such as rentals, mortgages, and home improvement; • successfully integrate companies we may acquire or have acquired, including Market Leader; and • successfully expand internationally. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements We have a history of losses and we may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We have not been profitable on a quarterly or annual basis since we were founded, and as of December 31, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $64.9 million. We expect to make significant future investments in the development and expansion of our business which may not result in increased revenue or growth. In addition, as a public company, we have incurred and expect that we will continue to incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. As a result of these increased expenditures, we must generate and sustain increased revenue to achieve and maintain future profitability. While our revenue has grown in recent periods, this growth may not be sustainable and we may not achieve sufficient revenue to achieve or maintain profitability. We may incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, including slowing demand for our products, a decrease in the growth rate of our monthly unique visitors, increasing competition, weakness in the residential real estate market, our inability to effectively integrate acquired businesses, such as Market Leader, as well as other risks described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and we may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications and delays, and other unknown factors. Accordingly, we may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability and we may continue to incur significant losses in the future, and this could cause the price of our common stock to decline. If real estate professionals do not continue to subscribe to our products, or we are unable to attract new subscribers, our business and operating results would be harmed. We rely primarily on subscriptions purchased by real estate professionals to generate a substantial portion of our marketplace revenue. Marketplace revenue accounted for 79%, 70% and 61% of our revenue in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We generally offer subscriptions for periods between one month to 24 months, with most real estate professionals preferring to subscribe for periods shorter than 12 months. Our ability to attract and retain real estate professionals as subscribers, and to generate subscription revenue, depends on a number of factors, including: A key focus of our sales and marketing activities has been to further penetrate the large base of more than 2.8 million real estate professionals in the United States. As of December 31, 2013, we had more than 437,000 active real estate professionals in our Trulia marketplace and 157,000 active real estate professionals using our Market Leader software and services. Approximately 59,700 of these real estate professionals were paying subscribers (assuming a 20% overlap between Trulia subscribers and Market Leader’s premium subscribers). We spend a considerable portion of our operating expenses on sales and marketing activities. Our sales and marketing expenses were our largest operating expenses in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Sales and marketing expenses reflect many of the costs that we incur in acquiring new subscribers and retaining 20 • our ability to attract transaction-ready consumers to our websites and mobile applications; • the number of unique visitors using our websites and mobile applications; • the quality of the leads that we provide to our subscribers; • the number of leads that we provide to our subscribers; • the rate of adoption of our software-as-a-service based products; • the success of our marketing relationships with leading national real estate franchise networks; • the success of our efforts to upsell customers from promotional offers to higher revenue services; • the success of any increased marketing and product development efforts directed at attracting additional consumers and real estate professionals to our marketplace; • the strength of the real estate market; • the competition for real estate professionals’ marketing dollars; and • the strength of our brand. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements existing subscribers, and we expect that sales and marketing expenses will continue to significantly increase in absolute dollars as we seek to grow the number of subscribers in our marketplace. If we are unable to increase the number of total subscribers in our marketplace, our revenue may not grow and our operating results could suffer. Real estate professionals may not continue to subscribe with us if we do not deliver a strong return on their investment in subscriptions, and we may not be able to replace them with new subscribers. In addition, real estate professionals associated with our real estate franchise network partners may choose not to use our premium services if they are unable to convert leads we provide into closed sales, resulting in a loss of incremental revenue associated with our premium services. In addition, real estate professionals sometimes do not renew their subscriptions with us because of dissatisfaction with our products. This may occur for a number of reasons, including because we have made changes to our products or services, which we do periodically. If subscribers do not renew their subscriptions with us with the same or higher subscription fees, or at all, or if we are unable to attract new subscribers, our business and operating results would be harmed. Further, although a majority of our revenue in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was generated from subscriptions purchased by real estate professionals, we cannot be certain that subscribers will renew their subscriptions with us and that we will be able to achieve the same or higher amounts of subscription revenue in the future. Our ability to increase the number of subscribers to our services also depends, to some degree, on whether we can increase the inventory of marketing products and services available for us to sell in different geographic markets. If we are unable to create additional inventory by offering new services or reconfiguring our existing services, we may not be able to grow the number of subscribers to our services quickly or at all. Even if we are able to offer new services or reconfigure our existing services, there is no guarantee that new subscribers will purchase them or existing subscribers will be satisfied with the changes we make. For instance, in March 2013 we initiated an inventory expansion program of offering additional advertising slots on our real estate listing detail pages to feature more than one subscriber. While this allowed us to sell additional subscriptions in a given location, some existing subscribers did not like the change and elected not to renew their subscriptions. In addition, if we need to reduce our subscription fees due to competition, our business, operating results, financial condition, and prospects would suffer if we are unable to offset any reductions in our fees by increasing our number of consumers and advertisers, reducing our costs, or successfully developing and deploying new features on a timely basis. If we are not able to optimize our pricing and increase our average revenue per subscriber, we may not be able to grow our revenue over time. Our ability to grow revenue depends, in part, on our ability to optimize pricing and increase average monthly revenue per subscriber over time. Since launching our first subscription product in 2007, we have continued to expand our products and optimize pricing of our products. As we continue to optimize our pricing, real estate professionals may not accept these new prices, which may harm our business and growth prospects. In August 2013, we acquired Market Leader, which offers subscription-based real estate marketing software and lead generation products. Market Leader historically generated lower average revenue per subscriber than us. As a result, we may experience difficulty in increasing our average revenue per subscriber, which may impact our ability to grow revenue over time and may harm our business and growth prospects. 21 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements If advertisers reduce or end their advertising spending with us, or if we are unable to attract new advertisers, our business and operating results would be harmed. Display advertising accounted for 21%, 30% and 39% of our revenue in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our advertisers can generally terminate their contracts with us at any time or on very short notice. Our ability to attract and retain advertisers, and to generate advertising revenue, depends on a number of factors, including: We may not succeed in capturing more spending from advertisers if we are unable to demonstrate to advertisers the effectiveness of advertising in our marketplace as compared to alternatives, including traditional offline advertising media such as newspapers and magazines. If advertisers reduce or terminate their advertising spending with us and we are unable to attract new advertisers, our revenue, business, operating results, and financial condition would be harmed. In our display advertising business, we also have a limited ability to replace the loss of revenue resulting from the loss of a customer during a particular quarter because of the significant time required to secure an alternative advertiser for such advertising inventory, run the alternative advertising campaign on our marketplace, and satisfy our revenue recognition criteria from such campaign. As a result, the loss of a customer during a quarter could result in our inability to replace the lost revenue from such customer within that quarter and, therefore, we will sometimes encounter variances in our Media revenue. If we are unable to maintain or increase consumer traffic to our marketplace, our business and operating results would be harmed. Our ability to generate revenue from our marketplace business and media business depends, in part, on our ability to attract consumers to our websites and mobile applications. If we fail to maintain or increase consumer traffic to our marketplace, our ability to acquire additional subscribers, deliver leads to existing subscribers and sell advertising to third parties could be negatively affected. While we believe the number of consumers visiting our marketplace will continue to grow, our growth rate of monthly unique visitors, excluding the impact of our Market Leader acquisition, has decreased on a year-over-year basis from 57% in the year ended December 31, 2012 to 41% in the year ended December 31, 2013. We expect that our efforts to maintain or increase consumer traffic are likely to include, among other things, significant increases to our marketing expenditures and significant expenditures to increase the number of our engineering and product development personnel. There can be no assurance that any increases in our expenses will be successful in generating additional consumer traffic. Even if we are able to attract additional consumers to our marketplace, an increase in our operating expenses could negatively impact our operating results if we are unable to generate more revenue through increased sales of subscriptions to our marketplace products and display advertising. Accordingly, if we are unable to increase consumer traffic to our marketplace, or if we are unable to generate enough additional revenue to offset any increase in expenses related to increasing consumer traffic to our marketplace, our business and operating results would be harmed. 22 • the number of consumers using our websites and mobile applications; • our ability to continue to attract an audience that advertisers find attractive; • the strength of our brand: • our ability to compete effectively for advertising spending with other real estate marketplaces, offline companies, and online companies; • how advertisers value our advertising network, which consists of our online properties and those of our publishing partners; • the amount of spending on online advertising generally; and • our ability to deliver an attractive return on investment to advertisers. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our recent revenue growth rates may not be indicative of our future growth, and we may not continue to grow at our recent pace, or at all. From the year ended 2008 to the year ended December 31, 2013, our revenue grew from $8.1 million to $143.7 million, which represents a compounded annual growth rate of approximately 78%. In the future, our revenue may not grow as rapidly as it has over the past several years. We believe that our future revenue growth will depend, among other factors, on our ability to: We may not be successful in our efforts to do any of the foregoing, and any failure to be successful in these matters could materially and adversely affect our revenue growth. You should not consider our past revenue growth to be indicative of our future growth. We may experience difficulties in integrating Market Leader’s business and realizing the expected benefits of the acquisition. The success of the Market Leader acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated business opportunities and growth prospects from combining our businesses with those of Market Leader. We may never realize these business opportunities and growth prospects. Integrating operations will be complex and will require significant efforts and expenditures. Our management might have its attention diverted while trying to integrate operations and corporate and administrative infrastructures. We might experience increased competition that limits our ability to expand our business, and we might fail to capitalize on expected business opportunities, including retaining current customers. We closed the acquisition of Market Leader on August 20, 2013, and are in the early stages of integrating Market Leader’s business and operations into our business and operations. The integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each company’s ongoing businesses, tax costs or inefficiencies, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, information technology systems, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients, employees or other third parties or our ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Market Leader acquisition and could harm our financial performance. If we are unable to successfully or timely integrate the operations of Market Leader’s business into our business, we may be unable to realize the revenue growth, synergies and other anticipated benefits resulting from the acquisition and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. 23 • acquire additional subscribers and sell additional products to existing subscribers; • sell advertising to third parties; • attract a growing number of users to our websites and mobile applications; • increase our brand awareness; • successfully develop and deploy new products for the residential real estate industry; • maximize our sales personnel’s productivity; • respond effectively to competitive threats; • successfully expand our business into adjacent markets, such as rentals and mortgages; • successfully integrate companies we may acquire or have acquired, including Market Leader; and • successfully expand internationally. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Purchase price accounting in connection with our acquisition of Market Leader requires estimates which may be subject to change in the future. Future changes to these estimates could impact our historical or future operating results. The application of purchase price accounting requires that the total purchase price we paid for Market Leader be allocated to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. All amounts in excess of the fair value are recorded as goodwill. The allocation process requires an analysis and valuation of acquired assets, including fixed assets, technologies, deferred tax assets, customer contracts and relationships, trade names and liabilities assumed, including contractual commitments and legal contingencies. We identified and recorded the assets, including specifically identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed in connection with our recent acquisition of Market Leader at their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. This process requires estimates by our management based upon the best available information at the time of the preparation of the financial statements. These estimates of fair value may change in the future as we finalize the purchase price allocation. We expect it may take until August 2014 to complete the purchase price allocation. Any future changes to our estimates of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Market Leader as of the date of the acquisition could impact our historical or future operating results. If we cannot obtain comprehensive and accurate real estate listing information on a timely basis, our business will suffer. Our offerings are based on receiving current and accurate real estate listing data. We depend on, and expect to continue to depend on, relationships with various third parties to provide this data to us, including real estate listing aggregators, multiple listing services, real estate brokerages, apartment management companies, and other third parties. Many of our agreements with our listing sources are short-term agreements that may be terminated with limited or no notice. If our relationship with one or more of these parties is disrupted, the quality of the experience we provide to users would suffer. We currently depend on a listing aggregator to provide us with a substantial portion of the unique listings in our database. While these listings are available from their original sources, it would take substantial time and effort for us to aggregate these listings from all of the original sources. Therefore, if the agreement with our largest listing aggregator is terminated, we may not be able to fully replace the listings in a timely manner or on terms favorable to us, or at all, which would adversely affect our business and operating results. In addition, as real estate brokers and multiple listing services typically control the distribution and use of listings, our business could suffer if real estate brokers or multiple listing services withheld listings from us or delayed the delivery of their listings to us. From time to time in the past, real estate brokers have refused to syndicate listings to us and multiple listing services have delayed the delivery of listings to us, and we cannot assure you this will not happen in the future. If real estate brokers or multiple listing services refuse to syndicate listings or delay such syndication to us, the quality of our products would suffer due to the decline of timely and accurate information, which could adversely affect our business and operating results. We rely on information from real estate multiple listing services provided by third parties that we do not control. The websites we provide to our software-as-a-service based customers combine aerial maps and for sale home listings, including listings in most of the major metropolitan markets in the United States. In addition, in selected markets, including most of the major metropolitan markets in the United States, we provide customers with functionality that allows them to automatically email their prospective clients information about newly available homes that meet the prospective clients’ criteria. The for sale home listings information provided by our websites and the automated email functionality are supplied only in markets in which we, our broker customers, or the broker affiliated with our agent customers have a relationship with the local multiple listing service (MLS). Our agreements with MLSs to display property listings have short terms, or can be terminated by the MLSs, or, in some cases, the broker, with little notice. The success of our products depends in part on our 24 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements continued ability to provide customers with MLS listings and data, as well as our ability to expand listings in markets in which it is not currently available. Our inability to obtain MLS listings and data will harm our business and operating results. If use of our mobile products does not continue to grow or we are not able to successfully monetize them as we expect, our operating results could be harmed and our growth could be negatively affected. Our future success depends in part on the continued growth in the use of our mobile products by our users and our ability to monetize them. During the year ended December 31, 2013, our mobile products accounted for 37% of our total traffic, excluding traffic from Market Leader, compared to 29% of our total traffic for the year ended December 31, 2012. We currently monetize our mobile offerings through our Trulia Mobile Ads subscription product for real estate professionals and through our mobile websites, including our Trulia mobile website and more than 126,000 agent websites powered by Market Leader. We monetize our mobile applications principally through our Trulia Mobile Ads subscription product through which real estate professionals can purchase local advertising on our mobile applications and our Trulia mobile website by zip code and by share of a given market. We also monetize mobile offerings through kwkly , a mobile software-as-a-service lead generation platform that provides home buyers with real-time access to property information on their Web-enabled phones, while at the same time connecting real estate professional customers of kwkly with those home buyers. We monetize our Trulia mobile website and Trulia mobile applications through the sale of display advertisements and we also provide our Trulia subscribers rotational placement in a local lead form that appears on certain pages of our Trulia mobile website and mobile applications. The use of mobile technology may not continue to grow at historical rates, and consumers may not continue to use mobile technology for real estate research. Further, mobile technology may not be accepted as a viable long-term platform for a number of reasons, including actual or perceived lack of security of information and possible disruptions of service or connectivity. In addition, traffic on our mobile applications may not continue to grow if we do not continue to innovate and introduce enhanced products on mobile platforms, or if users believe that our competitors offer superior mobile products. The growth of traffic on our mobile products may also slow or decline if our mobile applications are no longer compatible with operating systems such as iOS, Android, or the devices they support. Additionally, real estate professionals and advertisers may choose to devote less of their spending to target mobile users for a number of reasons, including a perceived lack of effectiveness of display advertising on mobile devices. Although we have seen strong results in our mobile product monetization efforts with the launch of Trulia Mobile Ads in May 2012 and our product redesign in March 2013, we cannot assure you that we will continue to monetize our mobile products as effectively in the future. If use of our mobile products does not continue to grow, or if real estate professionals or advertisers decrease their spending on our mobile products, our business and operating results could be harmed. If we do not continue to innovate and provide useful products, we may not remain competitive, and our business and financial performance could suffer. Our success depends in part on our ability to continue to innovate. This is particularly true with respect to mobile applications, which are increasingly being used by our audience. Our competitors regularly enhance their offerings and create new offerings for consumers, real estate professionals, and others involved in the residential real estate industry. If we are unable to continue to offer innovative products or to keep pace with our competitors’ offerings, our business and operating results will suffer. We rely on Internet search engines to drive traffic to our websites, and if we fail to appear high up in the search results, our traffic would decline and our business would be adversely affected. We depend in part on Internet search engines, such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo!, to drive traffic to our websites. For example, when a user types a property address into a search engine, we rely on a high organic search ranking of our webpages in these search results to refer the user to our websites. However, our ability to maintain high organic search result rankings is not within our control. Our competitors’ search engine optimization, or SEO, efforts may result in their websites receiving a higher search result page ranking than ours, 25 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements or Internet search engines could revise their methodologies in a way that would adversely affect our search result rankings. If Internet search engines modify their search algorithms in ways that are detrimental to us, or if our competitors’ SEO efforts are more successful than ours, overall growth in our user base could slow. Search engine providers could provide listings and other real estate information directly in search results or choose to align with our competitors. Our websites have experienced fluctuations in search result rankings in the past, and we anticipate similar fluctuations in the future. Any reduction in the number of users directed to our websites through search engines could harm our business and operating results. Our revenue and operating results could vary significantly from period to period, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. We generate revenue through sales of subscriptions to real estate professionals and sales of display advertising to advertisers. Our subscription and advertising sales can be difficult to predict and may result in fluctuations in our revenue from period to period. Our revenue and operating results have fluctuated in the past, and may continue to fluctuate in the future, as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our revenue and operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on past results as an indication of future performance. Our revenue, operating results, or both, may be affected by a number of factors, including: For example, individuals hired to join our sales team typically do not reach their maximum productivity until they have been employed for several months or more. Our fixed expenses related to the addition of personnel may not result in an increase in revenue in a given period or at all. 26 • our subscription and advertising sales, particularly large advertising campaigns; • fluctuations in user activity on our websites and mobile applications, including as a result of seasonal variations; • competition and the impact of offerings and pricing policies of our competitors; • the effects of changes in search engine placement and prominence of our websites; • the amount and timing of operating expenses related to the maintenance and expansion of our business, operations, and infrastructure; • our ability to control costs, particularly those of third-party data providers; • our ability to reduce costs in a given period to compensate for unexpected shortfalls in revenue; • the timing of costs related to the development or acquisition of technologies or businesses; • our inability to complete or integrate efficiently any acquisitions that we may undertake; • our ability to collect amounts owed to us from advertisers; • changes in our tax rates or exposure to additional tax liabilities; • claims of intellectual property infringement against us and any resulting temporary or permanent injunction prohibiting us from selling our products or requirements to pay damages or expenses associated with any of those claims; • our ability to successfully expand in existing markets and enter new markets; • our ability to keep pace with changes in technology; • changes in government regulation affecting our business; • the effectiveness of our internal controls; • conditions in the real estate market; and • general economic conditions. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements As a result of the foregoing factors and others discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, our operating results in one or more future periods may fail to meet or exceed our projections or the expectations of securities analysts or investors. In that event, the trading price of our common stock would likely decline. Seasonality may cause fluctuations in our traffic, revenue, operating expenses and operating results. From time to time, we experience seasonality in subscription revenue and display advertising due to fluctuations in traffic to our websites and mobile applications. During the fourth quarter of each year, traffic to our marketplace has historically declined and our revenue has historically grown more slowly than in other quarters or has declined sequentially. For example, we experienced a decrease in the number of unique visitors to our marketplace in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2013, due in part to seasonality. Conversely, we typically experience higher growth in traffic and revenue during the spring and summer months, when consumers are more likely to buy new homes. We expect that seasonality will continue to affect traffic in our marketplace, as well as our revenue from subscriptions and advertising. We rely on advertising to attract consumers to our Market Leader websites and to generate traffic and leads on these websites and for our Trulia Seller Ads product. As a result, we are subject to seasonal fluctuations in advertising rates and marketing services. Changing consumer behavior at various times throughout the year affects our advertising expenses. We expect that seasonal fluctuations in advertising costs will affect our operating expenses, as well as our operating margins. Declines in, or changes to, the real estate industry could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Our business and financial performance are affected by the health of, and changes to, the residential real estate industry. Although we have built and grown our business during a worldwide economic downturn, home-buying patterns are sensitive to economic conditions and tend to decline or grow more slowly during these periods. A decrease in home purchases could lead to reductions in user traffic, reductions in subscriptions by real estate professionals, and a decline in marketing spend by real estate professionals. Furthermore, online advertising products may be viewed by some existing and potential advertisers on our websites and mobile applications as a lower priority, which could cause advertisers to reduce the amounts they spend on advertising, terminate their use of our products, or default on their payment obligations to us. In addition, we may become subject to rules and regulations in the real estate industry that may restrict or complicate our ability to deliver our products. These changes would harm our business and operating results. Most recently, beginning in 2008, domestic and global economic conditions deteriorated rapidly, resulting in a dramatic slowdown in the housing market, which slowed advertising spending in the real estate industry. In addition, changes to the regulation of the real estate industry and related areas, including mortgage lending and the deductibility of home mortgage interest, may negatively affect the prevalence of home purchases. Real estate markets also may be negatively impacted by a significant natural disaster, such as earthquake, fire, flood, or other disruption. Declines or disruptions in the real estate market or increases in mortgage interest rates could reduce demand for our products and could harm our business and operating results. We participate in a highly competitive market, and pressure from existing and new companies may adversely affect our business and operating results. The market to provide home listings and marketing services for the residential real estate industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Homes are not typically marketed exclusively through any single channel. Consumers can access home listings and related data through more than one source. Accordingly, current and potential competitors could aggregate a set of listings similar to ours. We compete with online real estate marketplaces, such as Zillow.com, and Realtor.com, other real estate websites, and traditional offline media. We compete to attract consumers primarily on the basis of the number and quality of listings; user experience; the breadth, depth, and relevance of insights and other content on homes, neighborhoods, and professionals; brand 27 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements and reputation; and the quality of mobile products. We expect that our marketing and product development expenses are likely to significantly increase as we seek to attract additional consumers and real estate professionals to our marketplace. For example, we recently announced a national marketing campaign that is designed to attract serious home buyers and sellers to our marketplace. We compete to attract real estate professionals primarily on the basis of the quality of our websites and mobile products, the size and attractiveness of the consumer audience, the quality and measurability of the leads we generate, the perceived return on investment we deliver, and the effectiveness of marketing and workflow tools. We also compete for advertisers against other media, including print media, television and radio, social networks, search engines, other websites, and email marketing. We compete primarily on the basis of the size and attractiveness of the audience; pricing; and the ability to target desired audiences. Many of our existing and potential competitors have substantial competitive advantages, such as: The success of our competitors could result in fewer users visiting our websites and mobile applications, the loss of subscribers and advertisers, price reductions for our subscriptions and display advertising, weaker operating results, and loss of market share. Our competitors also may be able to provide users with products that are different from or superior to those we can provide, or to provide users with a broader range of products and prices. We expect increased competition if our market continues to expand. In addition, current or potential competitors may be acquired by third parties with greater resources than ours, which would further strengthen these current or potential competitors and enable them to compete more vigorously or broadly with us. If we are not able to compete effectively, our business and operating results will be materially and adversely affected. Any increased marketing spending by one of our primary competitors could cause us to incur additional expenses, could reduce consumer traffic to, and subscribers of, our marketplace, or could harm our operating results. If our users do not continue to contribute content or their contributions are not valuable to other users, our marketplace would be less attractive, which could negatively affect our unique visitor traffic and revenue. Our success depends on our ability to provide consumers with the information they seek, which in turn depends in part on the content contributed by our users. We believe that one of our primary competitive advantages is the quality and quantity of the user-generated content in our marketplace, and that information is one of the main reasons consumers use our platform. If we are unable to provide consumers with the information they seek because our users do not contribute content, or because the content that they contribute is not helpful and reliable, the number of consumers visiting our websites and using our mobile applications may decline. If we experience a decline in consumers visiting our websites and using our mobile applications, real estate professionals and advertisers may not view our marketplace as attractive for their marketing expenditures, and 28 • greater scale; • stronger brands and greater name recognition; • longer operating histories; • more financial, research and development, sales and marketing, and other resources; • more extensive relationships with participants in the residential real estate industry, such as brokers, agents, and advertisers; • strong relationships with third-party data providers, such as multiple listing services and listing aggregators; • access to larger user bases; and • larger intellectual property portfolios. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements may reduce their spending with us. Any decline in visits to our websites and usage of our mobile applications by consumers and any decline in spending by real estate professionals and advertisers with us would harm our business and operating results. In addition, we monitor new contributions to user-generated content because we believe this metric is a key indicator of our user engagement and the strength of our community. In the event that the number of new contributions to user-generated content declines, this metric may provide a leading indicator of the health of our business. However, if the quantity of new contributions to user-generated content continues to increase but the quality of user-generated content declines, this metric would not capture any corresponding declines in user engagement or the strength of our community as evidenced by the lower quality of user-generated content, and such data would be of limited use in those circumstances. Our growth depends in part on our relationship with third parties to provide us with local information. Third parties provide us with information that we use to provide users with insights that go beyond listings, such as information about schools, crime, and neighborhood amenities. Property descriptions and sale transactions obtained via third-party data providers also inform the valuations provided by our Trulia Estimates feature. If these third-party data providers terminate their relationships with us, the information that we provide to users may be limited or the quality of the information may suffer. If we are unable to renew our agreements with these data providers on favorable terms to us or to secure alternative sources for this information, our costs may increase and our business may be harmed. If we do not display accurate and complete information on a timely basis, our user traffic may decline, our reputation would suffer, and our business and operating results would be harmed. We receive listing and other information provided by listing aggregators and other third parties that we include on our websites and mobile applications. Our reputation with consumers depends on the accuracy and completeness of the information that we provide, although the accuracy and completeness of this data is often outside of our control. We cannot independently verify the accuracy or completeness of all of the information provided to us by third parties. If third parties provide us with inaccurate or incomplete information that we then display on our websites and mobile applications, consumers may become dissatisfied with our products, our traffic may decrease, and our reputation may suffer. Real estate professionals also expect listings data and other information to be accurate and complete, and to the extent our information is incorrect or incomplete, our reputation and business relationships may suffer. In addition, we update the listing information that we provide on our websites and mobile applications on a daily basis. To the extent that we are no longer able to update information in our marketplace on a timely basis, or if consumers begin to expect updates in a more timely manner, we may be forced to make investments which allow us to update information with higher frequency. There can be no assurance that we will be able to provide information at a pace necessary to satisfy consumers in a cost-effective manner, or at all. Growth of our business will depend on a strong brand, and any failure to maintain, protect, and enhance our brand would hurt our ability to retain or expand our base of users, or our ability to increase their level of engagement. We believe that a strong brand is necessary to continue to attract and retain consumers and, in turn, the real estate professionals and others who choose to advertise on our websites and mobile applications. We need to maintain, protect, and enhance the “Trulia” and “Market Leader” brands in order to expand our base of users and increase their engagement with our websites and mobile applications. This will depend in part on our ability to continue to provide high-value, differentiated products, and we may not be able to do so effectively. This will also depend on our ability to successfully execute a broader marketing campaign to further promote our brand. For instance, in February 2014, we announced a national marketing campaign that is designed to attract serious 29 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements home buyers and sellers to our marketplace. If this campaign is not successful, our business could suffer. Furthermore, negative publicity about our company, including our content, technology, sales practices, personnel, or customer service could diminish confidence in and the use of our products, which could harm our operating results. If we are unable to maintain or enhance user and advertiser awareness of our brand cost effectively, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be harmed. In addition, our trulia.com and activerain.com websites serve as a forum for expression by our users, and if some of our users contribute inappropriate content and offend other users, our reputation could be harmed. Our Market Leader brand could be harmed if customers do not provide quality service to prospective home buyers and sellers. We rely on real estate professionals who are our customers of our Market Leader marketing services products to promote our Market Leader brand by providing high-quality service to prospective home buyers and sellers. We have little control over the activities of customers. If customers do not provide prospective home buyers and sellers with high-quality service, or if they use the functionality of our systems to send unwanted email to prospective home buyers or sellers, our brand value and our ability to generate leads may diminish. We rely on a small number of advertising partners for a substantial portion of our Media revenue, and we are subject to risks as a result of this advertiser concentration. In the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, our ten largest advertising partners accounted for more than 65%, 63%, and 54% of our Media revenue, respectively. One of our growth strategies is to increase the amount large advertisers spend in our marketplace, and we expect this revenue concentration to continue. If one or more of these large advertisers were to decrease or discontinue advertising with us, our business and operating results will be adversely affected. Our operating results may be adversely affected by a failure to collect amounts owed to us by advertisers. We often run display advertisements in our marketplace prior to receiving payment from an advertiser, which makes us subject to credit risks. In the past, certain advertisers have been unable to pay us due to bankruptcy or other reasons, and we cannot assure you that we will not experience collection issues in the future. If we have difficulty collecting amounts owed to us by advertisers, or fail to collect these amounts at all, our results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. Current and future acquisitions and investments could disrupt our business, cause dilution to our stockholders, and harm our financial condition and operating results. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to expand our products and markets, and grow our business in response to changing technologies, user, and advertiser demands, and competitive pressures. In some circumstances, we may determine to do so through the acquisition of complementary businesses and technologies rather than through internal development, including, for example, our acquisition of Movity, Inc., a data visualization company, and our acquisition of Market Leader, Inc., a provider of software-as-a-service based customer relationship management software for the real estate sector. The identification of suitable acquisition candidates can be difficult, time-consuming, and costly, and we may not be able to successfully complete identified acquisitions. The risks we face in connection with acquisitions include: 30 • diversion of management time and focus from operating our business to addressing acquisition integration challenges; • coordination of research and development and sales and marketing functions; • transition of the acquired company’s users to our websites and mobile applications; • retention of employees from the acquired company; Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our failure to address these risks or other problems encountered in connection with our past or future acquisitions and investments could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions or investments, cause us to incur unanticipated liabilities, amortization expenses, impairment of goodwill, and restructuring charges, any of which could harm our financial condition and operating results. Also, the anticipated benefits of any acquisitions may not materialize. Competition within our industry for acquisitions of businesses, technologies, assets and product lines has been, and is likely to continue to be, intense. As such, even if we are able to identify an acquisition that we would like to consummate, we may not be able to complete the acquisition on commercially reasonable terms or because the target chooses to be acquired by another company. Furthermore, in the event that we are able to identify and consummate any future acquisitions, we may, in each of those acquisitions: These financing activities or expenditures could harm our operating results, cash flows and financial condition or the price of our common stock. Alternatively, due to difficulties in the capital or credit markets, we may be unable to secure capital on reasonable terms, or at all, necessary to complete an acquisition. We depend on our talented personnel to grow and operate our business, and if we are unable to hire, retain, manage, and motivate our personnel, or if our new personnel do not perform as we anticipate, we may not be able to grow effectively. Our future success will depend upon our continued ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate, and retain talented personnel. We may not be able to retain the services of any of our employees or other members of senior management in the future. We do not have employment agreements other than offer letters with any key employee, and we do not maintain key person life insurance for any employee. In addition, from time to time, there may be changes in our senior management team that may be disruptive to our business. If our senior management team fails to work together effectively and to execute our plans and strategies, our business could be harmed. 31 • cultural challenges associated with integrating employees from the acquired company into our organization; • failure to successfully continue the development of acquired technologies; • integration of the acquired company’s accounting, management information, human resources, and other administrative systems; • the need to implement or improve controls, procedures, and policies at a business that prior to the acquisition may have lacked effective controls, procedures, and policies; • liability for activities of the acquired company before the acquisition, including patent and trademark infringement claims, violations of laws, commercial disputes, tax liabilities, and other known and unknown liabilities; • litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims from terminated employees, users, former stockholders, or other third parties; • substantial impairments to goodwill or intangible assets in the event that an acquisition proves to be less valuable than the price we paid for it; and • the possibility that any acquisition may be viewed negatively by our customers or investors or the financial markets. • issue equity securities which would dilute current stockholders’ percentage ownership; • incur substantial debt to finance the acquisition or assume substantial debt in the acquisition; • incur significant acquisition-related expenses; • assume substantial liabilities, contingent or otherwise; or • expend significant cash. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our growth strategy also depends on our ability to expand our organization by hiring high-quality personnel. Identifying, recruiting, training, integrating, managing, and motivating talented individuals will require significant time, expense, and attention. Competition for talent is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay Area, where our headquarters is located. If we are not able to effectively recruit and retain our talent, our business and our ability to achieve our strategic objectives would be harmed. Growth may place significant demands on our management and our infrastructure. We have experienced substantial growth in our business that has placed, and may continue to place, significant demands on our management and our operational and financial infrastructure. As our operations grow in size, scope, and complexity, we will need to improve and upgrade our systems and infrastructure. The expansion of our systems and infrastructure will require us to commit substantial financial, operational, and technical resources in advance of an increase in the volume of business, with no assurance that the volume of business will increase. Continued growth could also strain our ability to maintain reliable service levels for our users and advertisers, develop and improve our operational, financial, and management controls, enhance our reporting systems and procedures, and recruit, train, and retain highly skilled personnel. Our products are accessed by a large number of users, often at the same time. If the use of our marketplace continues to expand, we may not be able to scale our technology to accommodate increased capacity requirements, which may result in interruptions or delays in service. The failure of our systems and operations to meet our capacity requirements could result in interruptions or delays in service or impede our ability to scale our operations. Our employee growth will also require significant financial and management resources. For example, for our San Francisco headquarters, our existing lease expires in 2014 and we anticipate needing additional headquarters office space to accommodate growth. As lease rates in the San Francisco commercial real estate market have increased in recent years, we expect to incur significantly higher facilities expenses as we seek to renew our existing lease and add additional space or find a new, larger facility for our headquarters. Managing our growth will require significant expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources. If we fail to achieve the necessary level of efficiency in our organization as it grows, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be harmed. A significant disruption in service on our websites or of our mobile applications could damage our reputation and result in a loss of users of our products and of advertisers, which could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. Our brand, reputation, and ability to attract users and advertisers depend on the reliable performance of our network infrastructure, software platform and content delivery. We may experience significant interruptions with our systems in the future. Interruptions in these systems, whether due to system failures, computer viruses, or physical or electronic break-ins, could affect the security or availability of our products on our websites and mobile applications, and prevent or inhibit the ability of users to access our products. Problems with the reliability or security of our systems could harm our reputation, result in a loss of users of our products and of advertisers, and result in additional costs. Substantially all of the communications, network, and computer hardware used to operate our trulia.com website and mobile applications are located at a single colocation facility in Santa Clara, California. Our Market Leader operations depend on our ability to maintain and protect our computer systems, located in Bellevue, Washington and at other co-location facilities in Kent, Washington and other locations operated by third parties. While we have made investments to back up our system in the event of a disruption involving these facilities, our systems are not fully redundant. In addition, we do not own or control the operation of these facilities. Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications 32 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements failure, terrorist attacks, acts of war, electronic and physical break-ins, computer viruses, earthquakes, and similar events. The occurrence of any of these events could result in damage to our systems and hardware or could cause them to fail. Problems faced by our third-party web hosting providers could adversely affect the experience of our users. Our third-party web hosting providers could close their facilities without adequate notice. Any financial difficulties, up to and including bankruptcy, faced by our third-party web hosting providers or any of the service providers with whom they contract may have negative effects on our business, the nature and extent of which are difficult to predict. If our third-party web hosting providers are unable to keep up with our growing capacity needs, our business could be harmed. Any errors, defects, disruptions, or other performance or reliability problems with our network operations could cause interruptions in access to our products as well as delays and additional expense in arranging new facilities and services and could harm our reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition. Our failure to protect confidential information of our users against security breaches could damage our reputation and brand and harm our business and operating results. We maintain sensitive information provided by users and advertisers. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties to effect secure transmission of confidential information, including personally identifiable information and credit card numbers. We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches or to address problems caused by breaches. If we are unable to maintain the security of confidential information that is provided to us by our users, our reputation and brand could be harmed and we may be exposed to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability, any of which could harm our business and operating results. Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could harm our business and operating results. Our business depends on our intellectual property, the protection of which is crucial to the success of our business. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright law and contractual restrictions to protect our intellectual property. In addition, we attempt to protect our intellectual property, technology, and confidential information by requiring our employees and consultants to enter into confidentiality and assignment of inventions agreements and third parties to enter into nondisclosure agreements. These agreements may not effectively prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of our confidential information, intellectual property, or technology and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our confidential information, intellectual property, or technology. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our websites features, software, and functionality or obtain and use information that we consider proprietary. We have registered “Trulia” as a trademark in the United States, the European Union and Canada. We also hold thirty-six registered trademarks registered in the United States and five trademarks registered in Canada associated with our Market Leader business. We have five patents registered and nine patents pending application in the United States. Competitors may adopt service names similar to ours, thereby harming our ability to build brand identity and possibly leading to user confusion. In addition, there could be potential trade name or trademark infringement claims brought by owners of other registered trademarks or trademarks that incorporate variations of the term “Trulia” or “Market Leader.” We currently hold the “Trulia.com,” “Marketleader.com,” “Housevalues.com” and “RealEstate.com” Internet domain names and various other related domain names. The regulation of domain names in the United States is subject to change. Regulatory bodies could establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars, or modify the requirements for holding domain names. As a result, we may not be able to acquire or maintain all domain names that use the names Trulia, Market Leader, Housevalues, or RealEstate. 33 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Litigation or proceedings before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or other governmental authorities and administrative bodies in the United States and abroad may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our patent rights, trade secrets, and domain names and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Our efforts to enforce or protect our proprietary rights may be ineffective and could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, which could harm our business and operating results. Intellectual property infringement assertions by third parties could result in significant costs and harm our business and operating results. Other parties have asserted, and may in the future assert, that we have infringed their intellectual property rights. Such litigation may involve patent holding companies or other adverse patent owners who have no relevant product revenue, and therefore our own issued and pending patents may provide little or no deterrence. We could also be required to pay damages in an unspecified amount. For example, in September 2011, we entered into a settlement agreement with CIVIX-DDI LLC, or CIVIX, relating to a claim by CIVIX that we infringed two CIVIX patents relating to searching and locating real estate. Under the settlement agreement, we agreed to pay CIVIX to settle the litigation. In addition, on September 12, 2012, Zillow, Inc., or Zillow, filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging that we infringe on one U.S. patent held by it. The lawsuit alleges that one component of our Trulia Estimates feature infringes upon Zillow’s patent insofar as Trulia Estimates allows homeowners to claim their homes and provide additional information about the properties, which enables us to update the valuation estimates for such properties. We started offering our Trulia Estimates feature in 2011. Zillow is seeking a permanent injunction against the alleged infringement, compensatory damages, and attorneys’ fees. On September 11, 2013, we filed a petition for covered business method patent review with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”). The PTO has not yet ruled on the petition. Also, on September 12, 2013, we filed a motion to stay pending the PTO’s review. The district court granted our motion to stay on October 7, 2013, and this matter is now stayed pending the conclusion of the covered business method patent review by the PTO. We believe we have meritorious defenses against Zillow’s claims and we intend to vigorously defend the claims against us. The foregoing litigation matters could cause us to incur significant expenses and costs. In addition, the outcome of any litigation is inherently unpredictable, and as a result of this litigation matter, we may be required to pay damages, an injunction may be entered against us that requires us to change certain features in our marketplace, or a license or other right to continue to deliver an unmodified version of such features may not be made available to us at all or may require us to pay ongoing royalties and comply with unfavorable terms. Any of these outcomes could harm our business. Even if we were to prevail, this litigation matter could be costly and time-consuming, could divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations, and may discourage consumers, real estate professionals, and advertisers from using our marketplace. From time to time, we also have other claims brought against us by third parties alleging infringement of their intellectual property. We cannot predict whether other assertions of third-party intellectual property rights or claims arising from such assertions will substantially harm our business and operating results. The defense of these claims and any future infringement claims, whether they are with or without merit or are determined in our favor, may result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel. Furthermore, an adverse outcome of a dispute may require us to pay damages, potentially including treble damages and attorneys’ fees, if we are found to have willfully infringed a party’s patent or copyright rights; cease making, licensing or using products that are alleged to incorporate the intellectual property of others; expend additional development resources to redesign our products; and enter into potentially unfavorable royalty or license agreements in order to obtain the right to use necessary technologies. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may be unavailable on terms acceptable to us, or at all. In any event, we may need to license intellectual property which would require us to pay royalties or make one-time payments. Even if these matters do not result in litigation or 34 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements are resolved in our favor or without significant cash settlements, the time and resources necessary to resolve them could harm our business, operating results, financial condition, and reputation. Valuation and other proprietary data may be subject to disputes. We provide data that is relevant to the decision to purchase a home and some of this data is subject to revision, interpretation, or dispute. For example, our Trulia Estimates tool provides users with home valuations and is based on algorithms we have developed to analyze third-party data. We revise our algorithms regularly, which may cause valuations to differ from those previously provided. Consumers and real estate professionals sometimes disagree with our estimates. Any such variation in or disagreements about the estimates that we present could result in negative user feedback, harm our reputation, or lead to legal disputes. We are subject to payments-related risks. We accept payments using a variety of methods, including credit and debit cards. For certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, we pay bank interchange and other fees, which may increase over time and raise our operating costs and lower profitability. We rely on third parties to provide payment processing services, including the processing of credit and debit cards, and our business would be disrupted if these companies become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us. We are also subject to payment card association operating rules, certification requirements, and rules governing electronic funds transfers, which could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and lose our ability to accept credit and debit card payments from consumers or facilitate other types of online payments, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected. If we fail to comply with the various laws and regulations that govern the real estate industry, our business may be harmed. Our business is governed by various federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the real estate industry, including the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the Fair Housing Act, state and local real estate broker licensing laws, federal and state laws prohibiting unfair and deceptive acts and practices, and federal and state advertising laws. We may not have always been and may not always be in compliance with each of these requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in, among other things, revocation of required licenses, indemnification liability to contract counterparties, class action lawsuits, administrative enforcement actions and civil and criminal liability. Due to the geographic scope of our operations and the nature of the services we provide, we may be required to obtain and maintain real estate brokerage licenses in certain states in which we operate. In connection with such licenses, we are required to designate individual licensed brokers of record. We cannot assure you that we are, and will remain at all times, in full compliance with state real estate licensing laws and regulations and we may be subject to fines or penalties in the event of any non-compliance. If in the future a state agency were to determine that we are required to obtain a real estate brokerage license in that state in order to receive payments or commissions from real estate professionals, or if we lose the services of a designated broker, we may be subject to fines or legal penalties or our business operations in that state may be suspended until we obtain the license or replace the designated broker. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may limit our ability to expand into new markets, offer new products or continue to operate in one or more of our current markets. We may be limited in the way in which we market our business or generate revenue by federal law prohibiting referral fees in real estate transactions. RESPA generally prohibits the payment or receipt of fees or any other thing of value for the referral of business related to a residential real estate settlement service, including real estate brokerage services. RESPA also prohibits fee shares or splits or unearned fees in connection with the provision of residential real estate 35 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements settlement services. However, RESPA expressly permits payments pursuant to cooperative brokerage and referral arrangements or agreements between real estate agents and brokers. In addition, RESPA permits payments for goods or facilities furnished or for services actually performed, so long as those payments bear a reasonable relationship to the market value of the goods or facilities furnished or the services performed, excluding the value of any referrals that may be provided in connection with such goods, facilities or services. Failure to comply with RESPA may result in, among other things, administrative enforcement actions, class action lawsuits, and civil and criminal liability. There has been limited guidance by the appropriate federal regulator or the courts regarding the applicability of RESPA to online marketing relationships for real estate or mortgage services, including those we provide. Nonetheless, RESPA may restrict our ability to enter into marketing and distribution arrangements with third parties, particularly to the extent that such arrangements may be characterized as involving payments for the referral of residential real estate settlement service business. Our business is subject to a variety of state and federal laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing and which could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business. We are subject to a variety of federal and state laws, including laws regarding data retention, privacy, and consumer protection, that are continuously evolving and developing. The scope and interpretation of the laws that are or may be applicable to us are often uncertain and may be conflicting. For example, laws relating to the liability of providers of online services for activities of their users and other third parties are currently being tested by a number of claims, including actions based on invasion of privacy and other torts, unfair competition, copyright and trademark infringement, and other theories based on the nature and content of the materials searched, the ads posted, or the content provided by users. In addition, regulatory authorities are considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection and other matters that may be applicable to our business. Changes to existing laws or regulations or the adoption of new laws or regulations could negatively affect our business. It is difficult to predict how existing laws will be applied to our business and the new laws to which we may become subject. If we are unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, the accuracy, and timeliness of our financial reporting may be adversely affected. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner, the market price of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the New York Stock Exchange, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources. In connection with the audit of our financial statements for 2009, 2010, and 2011, we identified a material weakness in the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that was the result of a lack of a sufficient number of qualified personnel within our accounting department that possessed an appropriate level of expertise to perform certain accounting functions. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Although we have remediated this material weakness, we cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section 404 has required, and will continue to require, that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements. While our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting resulted in our conclusion that, as of December 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was effective, we cannot predict the outcome of 36 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements our assessment and that of our independent registered public accounting firm in future periods. If we conclude in future periods that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, we could be subject to one or more investigations or enforcement actions by state or federal regulatory agencies, stockholder lawsuits or other adverse actions requiring us to incur defense costs, pay fines, settlements or judgments and causing investor perceptions to be adversely affected and potentially resulting in a decline in the market price of our stock. In addition, we are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, and as such we have elected to avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until we cease to be an “emerging growth company.” See “—We are an ‘emerging growth company,’ and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors,” for additional risks relating to our “emerging growth company” status. If we are unable to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting to meet the demands placed upon us as a public company, including the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results, or report them within the timeframes required by law or exchange regulations. Complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies has increased and may continue to increase our costs and the demands on management and could harm our operating results. As a public company, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange impose various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel have devoted and will need to continue to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations have increased and will continue to increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs and have made and will continue to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or our board committees or as executive officers. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section 404 has required, and will continue to require, that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements. While our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting resulted in our conclusion that, as of December 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was effective, we cannot predict the outcome of our assessment and that of our independent registered public accounting firm in future periods. If we conclude in future periods that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, we could be subject to one or more investigations or enforcement actions by state or federal regulatory agencies, stockholder lawsuits or other adverse actions requiring us to incur defense costs, pay fines, settlements or judgments and causing investor perceptions to be adversely affected and potentially resulting in a decline in the market price of our stock. In addition, we are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, and as such we have elected to avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until we cease to be an “emerging growth company.” See “—We are an ‘emerging growth company,’ and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors,” for additional risks relating to our “emerging growth company” status. 37 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting, or financial results and could result in an adverse opinion on internal control from our independent registered public accounting firm. We are an “emerging growth company,” and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors. We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act enacted in April 2012, and, for as long as we continue to be an “emerging growth company,” we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to have our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an “emerging growth company” until December 31, 2017; however, if we have more than $1.0 billion in annual revenue, if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of June 30 of any year, or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period before the end of that five-year period, we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” as of the following December 31. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive if we choose to rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of any choices to reduce future disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards, and, therefore, we will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. Our operating results may be harmed if we are required to collect sales taxes for our products. There is general uncertainty in the industry about the obligation of Internet-based businesses to collect and remit sales taxes in jurisdictions where their commerce is solely virtual. In the current climate, it is possible that one or more states or countries could seek to impose sales or other tax collection obligations on us or our subscribers with regards to our products, which taxes may be applicable to past sales. A successful assertion that we should be collecting additional sales or other taxes on our products could result in substantial tax liabilities for past sales, discourage subscribers from purchasing our products, or otherwise harm our business and operating results. If we fail to expand effectively into adjacent markets, our growth prospects could be harmed. We intend to expand our operations into adjacent markets, such as rentals, mortgages, and home improvement, and into international geographies. We may incur losses or otherwise fail to enter these markets successfully. Our expansion into these markets will place us in competitive environments with which we are unfamiliar and involves various risks, including the need to invest significant resources and the possibility that returns on such investments will not be achieved for several years, or at all. In attempting to establish a presence in new markets, we expect to incur significant expenses and face various other challenges, such as expanding our sales force and management personnel to cover these markets. For example, in September 2012, we introduced a mortgage product through which we provide real-time mortgage quotes to our users. We currently obtain mortgage quotes from a single third party partner. While the third party partner is obligated under our agreement 38 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements to continue to provide real-time mortgage quotes and to support us until April 2014, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to continue to obtain mortgage quotes from this third party partner beyond April 2014. If we are unable to add additional real-time mortgage quote providers, find replacement real-time mortgage quote providers on similar or better terms or we are unable to integrate with other providers, our expansion into the mortgage market will be hindered and our business and operating results may suffer. We may require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features and products or enhance our existing products, improve our operating infrastructure, or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities or if we issue equity securities as consideration in a merger or acquisition, our existing stockholders could suffer significant ownership dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed. Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock Our actual operating results may differ significantly from our guidance. From time to time, we have released, and may continue to release guidance in our quarterly earnings conference call, quarterly earnings releases, or otherwise, regarding our future performance that represents our management’s estimates as of the date of release. This guidance, which includes forward-looking statements, has been and will be based on projections prepared by our management. These projections are not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and neither our registered public accountants nor any other independent expert or outside party compiles or examines the projections. Accordingly, no such person expresses any opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the projections. Projections are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while presented with numerical specificity, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. We intend to state possible outcomes as high and low ranges which are intended to provide a sensitivity analysis as variables are changed but are not intended to imply that actual results could not fall outside of the suggested ranges. The principal reason that we release guidance is to provide a basis for our management to discuss our business outlook with analysts and investors. We do not accept any responsibility for any projections or reports published by any such third parties. Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the guidance furnished by us will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Accordingly, our guidance is only an estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results may vary from our guidance and the variations may be material. In light of the foregoing, investors are urged not to rely upon our guidance in making an investment decision regarding our common stock. Any failure to successfully implement our operating strategy or the occurrence of any of the events or circumstances set forth in this “Risk Factors” section in this Annual Report on Form 10-K could result in the actual operating results being different from our guidance, and the differences may be adverse and material. 39 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements The price of our common stock may be volatile, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The trading price of our common stock has fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate substantially. Since shares of our common stock were sold in our initial public offering, or the IPO, in September 2012 at a price of $17.00 per share, the reported high and low sales prices of our common stock have ranged from $14.69 to $51.68 through February 27, 2014. The trading price of our common stock depends on a number of factors, including those described in this “Risk Factors” section, many of which are beyond our control and may not be related to our operating performance. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our common stock since you might be unable to sell your shares at or above the price you paid. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our common stock include the following: In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market prices of a particular companies’ securities, securities class action litigations have often been instituted against these companies. Litigation of this type, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources. 40 • price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time; • volatility in the market prices and trading volumes of high technology stocks; • changes in operating performance and stock market valuations of other technology companies generally, or those in our industry in particular; • sales of shares of our common stock by us or our stockholders; • failure of securities analysts to maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our company, or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors; • the financial projections we may provide to the public, any changes in those projections, or our failure to meet those projections; • announcements by us or our competitors of new products; • the public’s reaction to our press releases, other public announcements, and filings with the SEC; • rumors and market speculation involving us or other companies in our industry; • actual or anticipated changes in our operating results or fluctuations in our operating results; • actual or anticipated developments in our business, our competitors’ businesses, or the competitive landscape generally; • litigation involving us, our industry or both, or investigations by regulators into our operations or those of our competitors; • developments or disputes concerning our intellectual property or other proprietary rights; • announced or completed acquisitions of businesses or technologies by us or our competitors; • new laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations applicable to our business; • changes in accounting standards, policies, guidelines, interpretations, or principles; • any significant change in our management; • conditions in the real estate industry or changes in mortgage interest rates; and • general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of our markets. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Because our outstanding 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020, or the 2020 Notes, issued on December 17, 2013, are convertible into shares of our common stock, volatility or depressed prices of our common stock could have a similar effect on the trading price of our notes. In addition, the existence of the 2020 Notes may encourage short selling in our common stock by market participants because the conversion of the 2020 Notes could depress the price of our common stock. Future sales of shares by existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market, particularly sales by our directors, executive officers, employees and significant stockholders, and the perception that these sales could occur may also depress the market price of our common stock. As of December 31, 2013, we had 36,582,572 shares of common stock outstanding. As of February 24, 2014 an aggregate of 2,795,920 shares are entitled, under contracts providing for registration rights, to require us to register shares of our common stock owned by them for public sale in the United States. In addition, we filed registration statements to register approximately 11,889,738 shares reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans. Subject to the satisfaction of applicable exercise periods, the shares of common stock issued upon exercise of outstanding options will be available for immediate resale in the United States in the open market. In addition, a substantial number of shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance upon conversion of the 2020 Notes. Substantial sales of our common stock may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-linked securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. These sales also could cause our stock price to fall and make it more difficult for you to sell shares of our common stock. If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline. The trading market for our common stock has been and may continue to be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. If any of the analysts who covers us change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who covers us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. We do not expect to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. We do not anticipate declaring any cash dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, investors may need to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. Anti-takeover provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, and our outstanding convertible notes could impair a takeover attempt. Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, and Delaware law contain provisions which could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by our board of directors. Our corporate governance documents include provisions: 41 • providing for a classified board of directors whose members serve staggered three-year terms; • authorizing “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by our board of directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend, and other rights superior to our common stock; Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management. As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation law, which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding common stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock. Additionally, certain provisions of our outstanding 2020 Notes could make it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire us. Any provision of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our common stock. None. In May 2010, we entered into a lease effective through October 2014 for approximately 32,000 square feet of office space that houses our principal offices in San Francisco. In March 2012, we entered into a sublease effective through March 2013 for approximately 9,500 square feet of additional office space in San Francisco. In October 2012, we entered into a lease to extend our occupancy of this additional space in San Francisco effective April 2013 and to add an additional 9,500 square feet of office space effective October 2012. The lease for this combined 19,000 square feet of office space runs through September 30, 2015. In September 2013, we entered into a lease effective through September 2021 for approximately 72,000 square feet of office space that houses our offices in Bellevue, WA. We lease additional office space in Denver and New York. We believe our facilities are sufficient for our current needs. From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We have received, and may in the future continue to receive, claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights. Merger Litigation Following the announcement that we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire Market Leader, purported class action law suits contesting the merger were filed and then consolidated under the caption In re Market Leader Inc. Shareholders’ Litigation, No. 13-2-20796-6 SEA (the “Merger Litigation”). On July 15, 2013, a superseding Consolidated Class Action Complaint (“Consolidated Complaint”), was filed, alleging that 42 • limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers; • limiting the ability of our stockholders to call and bring business before special meetings; • requiring advance notice of stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at meetings of our stockholders and for nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors; • controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of board of directors and stockholder meetings; and • providing our board of directors with the express power to postpone previously scheduled annual meetings and to cancel previously scheduled special meetings. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments Item 2. Properties Item 3. Legal Proceedings Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Market Leader’s board of directors breached its fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value or to engage in a fair sale process before approving the proposed acquisition of Market Leader by Trulia. The Consolidated Complaint also alleges that the defendants, including us and Mariner Acquisition Corp., our wholly owned subsidiary, failed to provide Market Leader shareholders with material information regarding the merger in the proxy statement and related public filings. The Consolidated Complaint further alleges that Market Leader, Trulia and Mariner Acquisition Corp. aided and abetted the Market Leader directors’ breaches of fiduciary duty. The Consolidated Complaint seeks an injunction prohibiting the consummation of the merger, rescission to the extent the merger terms have already been implemented, damages for the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty, and payment of plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs. On August 5, 2013, the parties entered into a memorandum of understanding to settle the Merger Litigation and resolve all allegations against Market Leader and the other defendants. The settlement, which is subject court approval, provides for the release of all claims against the defendants relating to the merger, including those alleged in the Consolidated Complaint. Lead Counsel for the consolidated action intends to apply to the court for an award of fees and reimbursement of costs incurred in connection with the Merger Litigation. Market Leader has agreed not to oppose the application for an award of fees and reimbursement of costs up to $350,000. On December 23, 2013, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement. A final settlement approval hearing is scheduled for March 7, 2014. Zillow Litigation On September 12, 2012, Zillow filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging that we infringe on one U.S. patent held by it. The lawsuit alleges that one component of our Trulia Estimates feature infringes Zillow’s patent insofar as Trulia Estimates allows homeowners to claim their homes and provide additional information about the properties, which enables us to update the valuation estimates for such properties. We started offering our Trulia Estimates feature in 2011. Zillow is seeking a permanent injunction against the alleged infringement, compensatory damages, and attorneys’ fees. On September 11, 2013, we filed a petition for covered business method patent review with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”). The PTO has not yet ruled on the petition. Also, on September 12, 2013, we filed a motion to stay pending the PTO’s review. The district court granted our motion to stay on October 7, 2013, and this matter is now stayed pending the conclusion of the covered business method patent review by the PTO. We believe we have meritorious defenses against Zillow’s claims and we intend to vigorously defend the claims against us. Current and future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves, our partners and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability, and validity of third-party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

We currently intend to retain any future earnings and do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determinations to pay cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on a number of factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, general business conditions, and any other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, the terms of our credit facility currently prohibit us from paying cash dividends on our capital stock.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, change in the fair value of our warrant liability, compensation paid in stock, and certain other infrequently occurring items that Trulia does not believe are indicative of ongoing results (such as acquisition related costs). Below, we have provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as we calculate the measure. We include Adjusted EBITDA in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because it is an important measure upon which our management assesses our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure because we believe it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences primarily caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions, the impact of depreciation and amortization expense on our fixed assets, changes related to the fair value remeasurements of our preferred stock warrant, and the impact of the compensation paid in stock. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal 48 Compensation paid in stock was allocated as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 (In thousands) Cost of revenue $ 718 $ 32 $ 11 $ 8 $ 10 Technology and development 6,365 930 482 176 177 Sales and marketing 5,663 398 183 97 105 General and administrative 10,227 1,210 808 73 13 Total compensation paid in stock $ 22,973 $ 2,570 $ 1,484 $ 354 $ 305 Amortization of product development costs were included in technology and development as follows: $ 2,660 $ 1,108 $ 708 $ 366 $ 179 See Note 12 to our audited financial statements for an explanation of the method used to calculate basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders and the weighted average number of shares used in the computation of the per share amounts.

In addition, we believe Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial performance and debt-service capabilities. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items. When evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including our net loss and other GAAP results. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods indicated: 49 • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures for capital equipment or other contractual commitments; • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect capital expenditure requirements for such replacements; • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness; and • Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure.

We intend to continue to spend significantly on technology and engineering in order to further improve the experience of our users and offer the most comprehensive end-to-end marketing and customer relationship management solutions for real estate professionals. We believe that the growth of our business and our future success are dependent upon many factors including our ability to increase our audience size and user engagement, grow the number of our paying subscribers, increase the value of our advertising and software-as-a-service products, achieve the anticipated benefits of the Market Leader acquisition, and successfully invest in our growth. We also expect that our efforts to maintain or increase consumer traffic and subscribers are likely to include, among other things, significant increases to our marketing spending and significant expenditures to increase the number of our engineering and product development personnel. In February 2014, we announced a national marketing campaign that is designed to attract serious home buyers and sellers to our marketplace. While each of these areas presents significant opportunities for us, they also pose important challenges that we must successfully address in order to sustain the growth of our business and improve our operating results. Follow-on Public Offering In March 2013, we completed our follow-on public offering in which we sold an aggregate of 4,025,000 shares of our common stock, which included 525,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $29.75 per share. In addition, another 3,117,311 shares were sold by certain selling stockholders, which includes 406,606 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares. We received aggregate net proceeds of $113.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, from sales of our shares in the offering. We did not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of shares by the selling stockholders. Acquisition of Market Leader, Inc.

We acquired Market Leader to help accelerate our growth, including by expanding our product portfolio for real estate professionals and increasing our subscriber base. Our consolidated financial statements include the results of operations for Market Leader beginning on August 21, 2013. Convertible Senior Notes On December 17, 2013 we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due in 2020, or the 2020 Notes, which included a $30.0 million of principal amount issued pursuant to an option to purchase additional notes granted to the initial purchasers. The aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes is due on December 15, 2020. We received net proceeds of $222.4 million, after deducting offering expenses of $7.6 million payable by us. Interest began to accrue on December 17, 2013 and is payable semi-annually every June 15 and December 15, starting on June 15, 2014. We may not redeem the 2020 Notes prior to December 20, 2018. We may redeem the 2020 Notes, at our option, in whole or in part on or after December 20, 2018, if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period. Holders of the notes may convert all or portion all or any portion of their notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. The notes are convertible at an initial conversion rate of 27.8303 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment in certain events. Key Business Metrics To analyze our business performance, determine financial forecasts, and help develop long-term strategic plans, we review the key business metrics below. 52 • Monthly Unique Visitors . We count a unique visitor the first time a computer or mobile device with a unique IP address accesses trulia.com, our Trulia consumer facing blogs, any of our more than 126,000 agent websites powered by Market Leader, or our mobile websites and applications during a calendar month. If an individual accesses any of the websites or mobile applications using different IP addresses within a given month, the first access by each such IP address is counted as a separate unique visitor. If an individual accesses more than any one of our websites in a single month, the first access to each website is counted as a separate unique user since unique users are tracked separately for each domain. Our number of monthly unique visitors includes mobile monthly unique visitors. We calculate our monthly unique visitors based on the monthly average over the applicable period. The fourth quarter of 2013 is the second quarter we are including our consumer facing blogs in our monthly unique visitor count. Traffic to our consumer facing blogs represented less than 1% of our monthly unique visitors for the year ended December 31, 2013. As a result we have not recalculated our monthly unique visitor count for historical periods. We view monthly unique visitors as a key indicator of the growth in our business and audience reach, the quality of our products, and the strength of our brand awareness. In the year ended December 31, 2013, the total number of monthly unique visitors increased to 38.8 million from 23.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, a 68% increase. We attribute the growth in our monthly unique visitors principally to our increasing brand awareness, the popularity of our mobile products, the overall industry trend of more consumers using the web and mobile applications to research housing decisions and to our acquisition of Market Leader. • Mobile Monthly Unique Visitors . We count a unique mobile visitor the first time a mobile device with a unique IP address accesses trulia.com, any of our more than 126,000 agent websites powered by Market Leader, or our mobile websites and applications during a calendar month. We calculate our mobile monthly unique visitors based on the monthly average over the applicable period. These mobile monthly unique visitors are included in our monthly unique visitors metric. We view mobile monthly unique visitors as a key indicator of the growth in our business and audience reach, and believe that having more unique visitors using our mobile applications will drive faster growth in our revenue. We plan to expand our mobile products to support our rapidly growing mobile user base. In the first quarter Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements 53 of 2013 we reclassified our mobile visitor data for the current and all historical quarters to include visitors to trulia.com on tablets or other mobile devices. Previously, these visitors were classified as web-based visitors. There was no change to overall visitor traffic as a result of this reclassification. In the year ended December 31, 2013, the number of mobile monthly unique visitors, as restated, increased to 14.3 million from 6.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, a 111% increase. We attribute this growth to the overall adoption of smartphones and the growth of mobile applications and mobile web use by consumers. We also attribute the growth in our mobile monthly unique visitors to our increased efforts in developing a mobile website and mobile applications. Due to the significant growth rate of usage of our mobile products and solutions, and our acquisition of Market Leader, our mobile monthly unique visitors has grown as a percentage of our monthly unique visitors over recent periods and we expect this trend to continue. • New Contributions to User-Generated Content . We define user-generated content as any content contributed by a user through trulia.com, or Trulia’s mobile websites or applications, such as Q&A discussions, blogs, blog comments, user votes, recommendations, and neighborhood ratings and reviews. We view the changes in the volume of new contributions to user-generated content as a key indicator of our user engagement and the strength of our community. In the year ended December 31, 2013, new contributions to user-generated content increased by approximately 4.4 million contributions, and we now have over 11.8 million cumulative contributions on our marketplace. We expect new contributions to user-generated content to continue to grow as our monthly unique visitors and total subscribers grow and as we introduce new features to trulia.com and our Trulia mobile websites and applications. While the absolute number of new contributions to user-generated content may continue to grow period-over-period, the rate of growth has slowed and we expect that the rate of growth may continue to slow as the aggregate size of our user-generated content increases. We believe the slowing growth rate of new contributions to user-generated content is a function of the large historical number of new contributions to user-generated content on our marketplace, which makes achievement of increasing rates of growth more challenging. We continue to focus on promoting new contributions to user-generated content to increase the engagement of our users with our marketplace. • Total Subscribers . We define a subscriber as a real estate professional with a paid subscription at the end of a period. This includes agents using our premium software-as-a-service product under a licensed purchased by their brokerage. Total subscribers has been, and we expect will continue to be, a key driver of revenue growth. It is also an indicator of our market penetration, the value of our products, and the attractiveness of our consumer audience to real estate professionals. As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately 59,700 total subscribers, a 144% increase from 24,443 total subscribers as of December 31, 2012. Our total subscribers include approximately 39,300 subscribers of Trulia products and approximately 25,500 subscribers of Market Leader products; however, we estimate that there was a 20% overlap between Trulia and Market Leader subscribers during the year ended December 31, 2013 and therefore our aggregate subscriber total has been adjusted accordingly. We attribute the growth in our total subscribers to our increasing sales and marketing efforts, principally from the launch and growth of our inside sales team, as well as growth in monthly unique visitors and our acquisition of Market Leader. Although our total subscribers are growing period-over-period and we expect total subscribers to continue to grow, the rate of growth may slow as we increase efforts to sell more products to existing subscribers. In addition, subscribers often purchase subscriptions for limited periods as a result of seasonality, as part of their advertising campaigns, and other factors. • Average Monthly Revenue per Subscriber . We calculate our average monthly revenue per subscriber by dividing the revenue generated from subscriptions of our lead generation products and our software-as-a-service products in a period by the average number of subscribers in the period, divided again by the number of months in the period. Our average number of subscribers is calculated by taking the average of the beginning and ending number of subscribers for the period. Our average monthly revenue per subscriber is a key indicator of our ability to monetize our marketplace and the performance of our software-as-a-service products for real estate professionals, and we monitor changes in this metric to Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our key business metrics are as follows: Components of Statements of Operations Revenue Our revenue is comprised of Marketplace revenue and Media revenue. Marketplace Revenue. Marketplace revenue primarily consists of products and services sold to real estate professionals, including agents, brokers, agents of property managers, and mortgage lenders on a fixed fee subscription, Cost Per Click (“CPC”), or Cost Per Lead (“CPL”) basis. We currently sell three sets of products to real estate professionals on a subscription basis. The first set of products, which includes Trulia Local Ads and Trulia Mobile Ads , enables real estate professionals to promote themselves on our search results pages and property details pages for a local market area. Real estate professionals purchase subscriptions to these products based upon their specified market share for a city or zip code, at a fixed monthly price, for periods ranging from one month to one year, with pricing depending on demand, location, and the percentage of market share purchased. Our second set of products allows real estate professionals to receive prominent placement of their listings in our search results. Real estate professionals sign up for new subscriptions to this product at a fixed monthly price for periods that generally range from 1 month to 24 months. Our third set of products is our comprehensive premium software-as-a-service based marketing products typically sold to real estate professionals as a bundle of products under a fixed fee subscription. We also sell a base version of these products to strategic franchise networks for specified contractual amounts over a number of years and partner with them to drive adoption of our premium solution across their network. Media Revenue. Media revenue primarily consists of display advertising sold on a Cost per Thousand (“CPM”), CPC, and CPL basis to advertisers promoting their brand on trulia.com, our mobile website, m.trulia.com and our partners websites (cumulatively “Trulia Websites”). Impressions are the number of times an 54 measure the effectiveness of our monetization strategy. During the year ended December 31, 2013, average monthly revenue per subscriber of our Trulia products increased to $191, from $156 during the year ended December 31, 2012, a 22% increase. As our new and existing subscribers mature, we have been able to increase our average monthly revenue per Trulia subscriber by launching new products to sell to these customers, redesigning existing products to expand inventory in high demand zip codes, raising prices in certain geographic markets, and selling to existing subscribers the additional advertising inventory created by traffic growth to our marketplace. In addition, in geographic markets that show strong demand for our Trulia subscription products—those where inventory is sold out and wait lists to purchase our products exist—average monthly revenue per subscriber is higher than in markets with less demand for our Trulia products. While our average monthly revenue per Trulia subscriber has increased and may continue to increase in absolute dollars year-over-year, the rate of increase has slowed and we expect that the rate of increase may continue to slow. We believe that the slowing growth rate of our average monthly revenue per subscriber is the result of our larger subscriber base and the resulting challenge associated with achieving higher growth rates and our efforts to introduce new, lower priced, entry level lead generation products to attract new subscribers. Despite this slowing growth rate, we believe we have significant opportunities to continue to increase average monthly revenue per subscriber by further penetrating markets and by offering new products to existing subscribers. Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Monthly unique visitors (in thousands) 38,809 23,145 14,776 Mobile monthly unique visitors (in thousands) 14,260 6,760 2,088 New contributions to user-generated content (in thousands) 4,362 3,050 1,991 Total subscribers (at period end) 59,677 24,443 16,849 Average monthly revenue per subscriber ($) 191 156 110 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements advertisement is loaded on a web page and clicks are the number of times users click on an advertisement. Revenue is recognized in the periods the clicks or impressions are delivered. Pricing is primarily based on advertisement size and position on the Trulia Websites and fees are generally billed monthly. As our mobile web pages and mobile applications offer less space on which to display advertising, a shift in user traffic from our websites to mobile products could decrease our advertising inventory and negatively affect our Media revenue. We do not believe that we have experienced a shift in user traffic from our websites to our mobile applications, as our monthly unique visitors and mobile monthly unique visitors each continued to grow at a rapid pace. In the third quarter of 2013, we changed how we define our Marketplace revenue and Media revenue. The changes primarily relate to the re-classification of products and services sold to mortgage lenders. The change in definitions did not change total revenue reported in any period. The following table provides a comparison of Marketplace revenue and Media revenue as currently classified and as previously classified for all periods presented. Marketplace revenue and Media revenue have been reclassified for all periods disclosed herein. In addition, as noted above, in the year ended December 31, 2013, we have added the contribution of Market Leader to Marketplace revenue from August 21, 2013 (the day after the closing of our acquisition of Market Leader) through December 31, 2013. Cost and Operating Expenses Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses related to operating our websites and mobile applications, including those associated with the operation of our data centers and customer websites, hosting fees, customer service related headcount expenses including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, cost to generate leads for customers, licensed content, multiple listing services fees, revenue sharing costs, credit card processing fees, third-party contractor fees, and allocated overhead. Technology and Development. Technology and development expenses consist primarily of headcount related expenses including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor fees, and allocated overhead primarily associated with developing new technologies. Technology and development also includes amortization expenses related to capitalized costs from internal and external development activities for our marketplace. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of headcount-related expenses including salaries, bonuses, commissions, benefits and stock-based compensation expense for sales, customer service, marketing, and public relations employees and third-party contractor fees. Sales and marketing expenses also include other sales expenses related to promotional and marketing activities, and allocated overhead. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of headcount related expenses including salaries, bonuses, and benefits and stock-based compensation expense for executive, finance, accounting, legal, human resources, recruiting, and administrative support personnel. General and administrative expenses also include legal, accounting, and other third-party professional service fees, bad debt, and allocated overhead costs. Interest Income Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalent and short-term investment balances. 55 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 Marketplace Revenue (current definition) $ 113,383 $ 47,805 Marketplace Revenue (previous definition) $ 107,712 $ 45,475 Media Revenue (current definition) $ 30,345 $ 20,280 Media Revenue (previous definition) $ 36,016 $ 22,610 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Interest Expense Interest expense consists primarily of interest on our outstanding long-term debt and capital lease obligations. See Note 7 of our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information about our long-term debt. Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability Change in fair value of the warrant liability includes charges from the remeasurement of our preferred stock warrant liability on a mark-to-market basis as of each period end. These preferred stock warrants became warrants to purchase common stock upon the completion of our IPO, at which time the warrant liability was remeasured to fair value and the remaining liability was reclassified as additional paid-in capital. See Notes 3 and 11 of the audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information about our preferred stock warrants. Provision for Income Taxes Our provision for income taxes has not been historically significant to our business as we have incurred operating losses to date. As a result of the acquisition of Market Leader in August 2013, we recorded a tax benefit of $7.9 million as a discrete item in the three months ended December 31, 2013. This tax benefit is a result of the partial release of its existing valuation allowance immediately prior to the acquisition since the acquired deferred tax liabilities from Market Leader will provide a source of income for us to realize a portion of our deferred tax assets, for which a valuation allowance is no longer needed. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. In many instances, we could have reasonably used different accounting estimates, and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period-to-period. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving our judgments and estimates. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. We consider a signed agreement, a binding insertion order, or other similar documentation reflecting the terms and conditions under which products will be provided to be persuasive evidence of an arrangement. Collectability is assessed based on a number of factors, including payment history and the creditworthiness of a customer. If it is determined that collection is not reasonably assured, revenue is not recognized until collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash. Our revenue includes marketplace revenue and media revenue. Marketplace revenue consists primarily of subscription revenue, which is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription. Media revenue consists primarily of advertisement sales, which is recognized in the periods the clicks or impressions are delivered. 56 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements We enter into arrangements with customers that include combinations of CPC media placements, CPM media placements, and subscription products. Beginning on January 1, 2011, we adopted new authoritative guidance on multiple-element arrangements, using the prospective method for all arrangements entered into or materially modified from the date of adoption. Under this new guidance, we allocate arrangement consideration in multiple-element revenue arrangements at the inception of an arrangement to all deliverables or those packages in which all components of the package are delivered at the same time, based on the relative selling price method in accordance with the selling price hierarchy, which includes: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence, or VSOE if available; (ii) third-party evidence, or TPE, if VSOE is not available; and (iii) best estimate of selling price, or BESP, if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. VSOE- We determine VSOE based on our historical pricing and discounting practices for the specific product when sold separately. In determining VSOE, we require that a substantial majority of the standalone selling prices for these products fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range. For certain subscription products, we have been able to establish VSOE. TPE- When VSOE cannot be established for deliverables in multiple-element arrangements, we apply judgment with respect to whether we can establish a selling price based on TPE. TPE is determined based on competitor prices for similar deliverables when sold separately. Generally, our go-to-market strategy differs from that of our peers and our offerings contain a significant level of differentiation such that the comparable pricing of our products cannot be obtained. Furthermore, we are unable to reliably determine what similar competitor selling prices are on a standalone basis. As a result, we have not been able to establish selling price based on TPE. BESP- When we are unable to establish selling price using VSOE or TPE, we use BESP in our allocation of arrangement consideration. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which we would transact a sale if the service was sold regularly on a standalone basis. As we have not been able to establish VSOE or TPE for CPM media placements, CPC media placements, and certain subscription products, we determine BESP for these deliverables based on the following: We limit the amount of allocable arrangement consideration to amounts that are fixed or determinable and that are not contingent on future performance or future deliverables. We regularly review BESP. Changes in assumptions or judgments or changes to the elements in the arrangement could cause a material increase or decrease in the amount of revenue that we report in a particular period. We recognize the relative fair value of the products as they are delivered assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Allowances for Doubtful Accounts We record a provision for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and a detailed assessment of the collectability of our accounts receivable. To assist with the estimate, our management considers certain factors such as historical experience, industry data, credit quality, age of accounts receivable balances, and current 57 • The list price represents a component of the go-to-market strategy established by senior management. Our list prices are based on the features of the products offered. These features, which consist of the size and placement of the advertisements on our website, impact the list prices which vary depending on the specifications of the features. In addition, the list prices are impacted by market conditions, including the conditions of the real estate market and economy in general, and our competitive landscape; and • Analysis of our selling prices for these deliverables. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. In cases where we become aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, we record a specific allowance against amounts due from the customer and thereby reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we reasonably believe will be collected. There is significant judgment involved in estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price paid over the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We have determined that we operate as one reporting unit and have selected December 1 as the date to perform our annual impairment test. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its net book value, including goodwill. If the net book value exceeds its fair value, then we would perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of the impairment loss. When performing the valuation of our goodwill, we make assumptions regarding our estimated future cash flows to determine the fair value of our business. If our estimates or related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment loss related to our goodwill. We have not recognized any goodwill impairments since our inception. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets We assess the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized. When measuring the recoverability of these assets, we will make assumptions regarding our estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If our estimates or related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to impair these assets. We have not recognized any impairment of long-lived assets to date. Product Development Costs Costs incurred in connection with the development of our marketplace are accounted for as follows: all costs incurred in the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed as incurred. Certain costs incurred in the application development stage of a new product or projects to provide significant additional functionality to existing products are capitalized if certain criteria are met. Maintenance and enhancement costs are typically expensed as incurred. Such costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which was estimated to be two years. Amortization expense is included in technology and development expense in the statements of operations. Stock-Based Compensation We recognize compensation costs related to stock-based awards granted to employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant, net of estimated forfeitures. For the stock options and stock appreciation rights we estimate the grant date fair value, and the resulting stock-based compensation expense using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the restricted stock units, the grant date fair value equals the market value of the underlying stock. We measure the fair value of stock appreciation rights similar to stock options. The grant date fair value of the stock-based awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of the respective awards. 58 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements The fair value of the awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, including the expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock, which determine the fair value of stock-based awards. These assumptions include: In addition to the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, we must also estimate a forfeiture rate to calculate the stock-based compensation for our awards. Our forfeiture rate is based on an analysis of our actual forfeitures. We will continue to evaluate the appropriateness of the forfeiture rate based on actual forfeiture experience, analysis of employee turnover, and other factors. Quarterly changes in the estimated forfeiture rate can have a significant impact on our stock-based compensation expense as the cumulative effect of adjusting the rate is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed. If a revised forfeiture rate is higher than the previously estimated forfeiture rate, an adjustment is made that will result in a decrease to the stock-based compensation expense recognized in our financial statements. If a revised forfeiture rate is lower than the previously estimated forfeiture rate, an adjustment is made that will result in an increase to the stock-based compensation expense recognized in our financial statements. We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the expected volatility, expected terms, and forfeiture rates utilized for our stock-based compensation calculations on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data related to our common stock, we may have refinements to the estimates of our expected volatility, expected terms, and forfeiture rates, which could materially impact our future stock-based compensation expense. Business Combination We recognize identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. While we use our best estimates and 59 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Expected term (in years) 5.5 5.5 5.5 Expected volatility 52% 53% 55% Risk-free interest rate 1.2% 0.9% 1.9% Dividend rate 0% 0% 0% • Expected term . The expected term represents the period that the stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. We estimate the expected term of the options based on a study of publicly traded industry peer companies and the historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior taking into account the contractual life of the stock-based awards; • Expected volatility . The expected volatility is derived from the historical stock volatilities of several comparable publicly listed peers over a period approximately equal to the expected term of the stock-based awards. We use this method because we have limited information on the volatility of our common stock because of our short trading history. When making the selections of our comparable industry peers to be used in the volatility calculation, we considered the size, operational and economic similarities to our principle business operations; • Risk-free interest rate . The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal the expected term of the stock-based awards; and • Expected dividend . The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as we have never paid dividends and have no current plans to pay any dividends on our common stock. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements assumptions as a part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill to the extent that we identify adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations. Purchased Intangible Assets Purchased intangible assets with a determinable economic life are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful life of each asset on a straight-line basis. The useful lives of the purchased intangible assets are as follows: Purchased intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Income Taxes We account for our income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Management must make assumptions, judgments, and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as any valuation allowance to be recorded against a deferred tax asset. Our assumptions, judgments, and estimates relative to the current provision for income taxes take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws, and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by domestic tax authorities. We have established reserves for income taxes to address potential exposures involving tax positions that could be challenged by tax authorities. Although we believe our assumptions, judgments, and estimates are reasonable, changes in tax laws or our interpretation of tax laws, and the resolution of potential tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our financial statements. Our assumptions, judgments, and estimates relative to the value of a deferred tax asset take into account predictions of the amount and category of future taxable income, such as income from operations or capital gains income. Actual operating results and the underlying amount and category of income in future years could render our current assumptions, judgments and, estimates of recoverable net deferred taxes inaccurate. Any of the assumptions, judgments, and estimates mentioned above could cause our actual income tax obligations to differ from our estimates, thus materially impacting our financial position and results of operations. Since inception, we have incurred operating losses, and accordingly, we have generally not recorded significant provisions for income taxes for any of the periods presented. We generally do not expect any significant changes until we are no longer incurring losses. However, in the three months ended September 30, 60 Enterprise Relationships 10 Premium Users 5 Existing Technology 7 Trade Names 10 Home/MLS data feeds 10 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements 2013, we recorded a discrete, one-time benefit of approximately $8 million associated with the acquisition of Market Leader which enabled us to recognize a portion of our deferred tax assets. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we completed an analysis of certain research expenditures attributable to the legacy Trulia business to determine whether, and to what extent, federal and state research credits could be claimed and carried forward from inception through 2013. As a result of that analysis, we claimed research and development credits of approximately $2.5 million and $2.2 million, for federal and state purposes, respectively. These credits have been presented in Note 14 of our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as an increase to deferred tax assets for the year ended December 31, 2013 but have also resulted in a corresponding increase to our valuation allowance. The claim therefore had no net impact to income tax expense. The federal credits will begin to expire in 2025 and the state credits can be carried forward indefinitely. At December 31, 2013, we had approximately $147.8 million of federal net operating loss and $85.9 million of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income, which will begin to expire in 2025 and 2015, respectively. Included in the above net operating loss carryforwards are $35.9 million and $25.1 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, respectively, associated with windfall tax benefit that will be recorded as additional paid in capital when realized. In addition, we had approximately $3.8 million of federal research credit and $3.2 million of state research credit and $1.1 million of state enterprise zone credits carryforwards. The federal credits will begin to expire in 2025 and the state credits can be carried forward indefinitely. Segment Information We have one reportable segment. Our reportable segment has been identified based on how our chief operating decision-maker manages our business, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. The chief executive officer acts as the chief operating decision-maker and reviews financial and operational information on an entity-wide basis. Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act, we meet the definition of an “emerging growth company.” We have irrevocably elected to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act. In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, “ Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, ” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward when settlement in this manner is available under the tax law. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2014. Adoption of this guidance has no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows in the current or future periods. In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income, requiring entities to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2013. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 we did not have any other comprehensive income and, therefore, the net loss and comprehensive loss was the same for all periods presented. 61 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Results of Operations The following tables set forth our results of operations for the periods presented in dollars and as a percentage of our total revenue: 62 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Statement of Operations Data: Revenue $ 143,728 $ 68,085 $ 38,518 Cost and operating expenses: Cost of revenue 23,122 9,999 5,795 Technology and development 34,612 20,199 14,650 Sales and marketing 71,370 33,747 17,717 General and administrative 32,702 13,659 6,123 Acquisition related costs 6,065 — — Total cost and operating expenses 167,871 77,604 44,285 Loss from operations (24,143 ) (9,519 ) (5,767 ) Interest income 121 50 17 Interest expense (1,107 ) (1,016 ) (389 ) Change in fair value of warrant liability — (369 ) (16 ) Loss on extinguishment of debt (141 ) — — Loss before provision for income taxes (25,270 ) (10,854 ) (6,155 ) Provision for income taxes 7,511 (67 ) — Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (17,759 ) $ (10,921 ) $ (6,155 ) Compensation paid in stock was allocated as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Cost of revenue $ 718 $ 32 $ 11 Technology and development 6,365 930 482 Sales and marketing 5,663 398 183 General and administrative 10,227 1,210 808 Total compensation paid in stock $ 22,973 $ 2,570 $ 1,484 Amortization of product development costs was included in technology and development as follows $ 2,660 $ 1,108 $ 708 (1) (2) (1) (2) Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 Revenue 2013 Compared to 2012 Revenue increased to $143.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $68.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $75.6 million, or 111%. Marketplace revenue and Media revenue represented 79% and 21%, respectively, of total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 70% and 30%, respectively, of total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in total revenue was attributable to the significant growth of our subscriber base, increase in average revenue per subscriber, as well as revenue from our acquisition of Market Leader in August 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 Revenue increased to $68.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $38.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $29.6 million, or 77%. Marketplace revenue and media revenue represented 70% and 30%, respectively, of total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 61% and 39%, respectively, of total revenue in the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in total revenue was attributable to the significant growth of our subscriber base, an increase in our unique monthly visitors, and increased prices. 63 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Percentage of Revenue**: Revenue 100 % 100 % 100 % Cost and operating expenses: Cost of revenue 16 15 15 Technology and development 24 30 38 Sales and marketing 50 49 46 General and administrative 23 20 16 Acquisition related costs 4 — — Total cost and operating expenses 117 114 115 Loss from operations (17 ) (14 ) (15 ) Interest income * * * Interest expense (1 ) (2 ) (1 ) Change in fair value of warrant liability — * * Loss on extinguishment of debt * — — Loss before provision for income taxes (18 ) (16 ) (16 ) Provision for income taxes 5 — — Net loss attributable to common stockholders (12 )% (16 )% (16 )% * Less than 0.5% of revenue. ** Certain numbers may not foot due to rounding. Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Revenue $ 143,728 $ 68,085 $ 38,518 111 % 77 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, we recognized marketplace revenue and media revenue as follows: 2013 Compared to 2012 Marketplace revenue increased to $113.4 million in the year ended December, 2013 from $47.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $65.6 million, or 137%. This was primarily attributable to the growth in the number of subscribers, our inventory expansion program, increased sales of our mobile subscription product, Trulia Mobile Ads , increased prices, as well as $21.2 million of revenue from our acquisition of Market Leader in August 2013. Overall our subscriber base grew by 144% to approximately 59,700 subscribers as of December 31, 2013 from 24,443 subscribers as of December 31, 2012. The subscriber numbers as of December 31, 2013 reflect our estimate that there was a 20% overlap of subscribers between Trulia and Market Leader as of December 31, 2013. Our mobile subscription product for agents, Trulia Mobile Ads , which we launched in May 2012, contributed to Marketplace revenue growth in the year ended December 31, 2013. The average monthly revenue per subscriber for Trulia standalone increased from $156 in the year ended December 31, 2012 to $191 in the year ended December 31, 2013, largely due to increased sales of our Trulia Local Ads and Trulia Mobile Ads products in our high demand zip codes as a result of monetization improvement of these products. Media revenue increased to $30.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $20.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $10.1 million, or 50%. This increase continues to be driven by strong year over year growth in our average monthly unique visitors, which increased from 23.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 to 38.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of 68%. 2012 Compared to 2011 Marketplace revenue increased to $47.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $23.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $24.3 million, or 104%. This was primarily attributable to growth in the number of subscribers, price increases, and sales of our mobile subscription product. The overall subscriber base grew by 45% to 24,443 subscribers as of the year ended December 31, 2012 from 16,849 subscribers as of the year ended December 31, 2011. In May 2012, we launched our most significant mobile subscription product for agents, Trulia Mobile Ads that resulted in an additional $4.4 million of marketplace revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012. Much of the 42% increase in average monthly revenue per subscriber, from $110 in the year ended December 31, 2011 to $156 in the year ended December 31, 2012 was attributable to increased sales and higher pricing for our Trulia Local Ads product as well as sales of our Trulia Mobile Ads product. Media revenue increased to $20.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $15.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $5.2 million, or 35%. This increase was primarily attributable to the strong year over year growth in our average monthly unique visitors from 14.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, to 23.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of 57%. We also experienced a significant increase in display advertisement sales to home builders as a result of the improving real estate market. Although there is a correlation between monthly unique visitors and our media revenue, it is not a direct correlation. The growth rate in our monthly unique visitors has outpaced the growth rate of our media revenue, as well as sales of our Trulia Mobile Ads product. 64 Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Marketplace revenue $ 113,383 $ 47,805 $ 23,474 137 % 104 % Media revenue 30,345 20,280 15,044 50 % 35 % Total revenue $ 143,728 $ 68,085 $ 38,518 111 % 77 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Cost of Revenue 2013 Compared to 2012 Cost of revenue increased to $23.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $10.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $13.1 million, or 131%. The increase was primarily due to a $2.7 million increase related to a new partnership arrangement that we entered into in the fourth quarter of 2012, and a $3.1 million increase in Trulia standalone labor and facilities related costs, including compensation paid in stock, largely as a result of a 23% increase in headcount in the year ended December 31, 2013. Market Leader’s contribution to cost of revenue was $6.0 million since August 21, 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 Cost of revenue increased to $10.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $5.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $4.2 million, or 73%. This increase in cost of revenue was primarily the result of a $1.9 million increase in headcount and related benefits due primarily to the growth in sales and expansion of the business overall, and a $1.5 million increase attributable to content license fees, hosting fees, and credit card fees due to higher subscription revenue. Cost of revenue remained at 15% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. Technology and Development Expenses 2013 Compared to 2012 Technology and development expenses increased to $34.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $20.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $14.4 million, or 71%. The increase was primarily due to a $7.3 million increase in Trulia standalone labor and facilities related costs, including compensation paid in stock, largely as a result of an 34% increase in headcount in the year ended December 31, 2013. Also, $1.3 million of the increase was related to stock-based compensation expense for the performance-based awards we granted to existing employees of Trulia and Market Leader in connection with the Market Leader acquisition. Market Leader’s contribution to technology and development expenses was $6.1 million since August 21, 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 Technology and development expenses increased to $20.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $14.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $5.5 million, or 38%. This increase was comprised primarily of a $4.1 million increase in headcount and related benefits, a $0.5 million increase in stock-based compensation expenses, a $0.4 million increase attributable to higher facilities related expenses in the current year due to significant leasehold improvements completed in the year ended December 31, 2012 in our Denver facility, as well an increase in capitalized product development costs. Technology and development expenses decreased to 30% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012 from 38% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2011, reflecting the increase in our revenue. 65 Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Cost of revenue $ 23,122 $ 9,999 $ 5,795 131 % 73 % Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Technology and development $ 34,612 $ 20,199 $ 14,650 71 % 38 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Sales and Marketing Expenses 2013 Compared to 2012 Sales and marketing expenses increased to $71.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $33.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $37.6 million, or 111%. The increase was primarily due to a $23.0 million increase in Trulia standalone labor and facilities related costs, including compensation paid in stock, largely as a result of a 34% increase in headcount in the year ended December 31, 2013. Also, $2.9 million of the increase was related to additional expenditures for marketing and advertising, and $0.7 million of the increase was related to stock-based compensation expense for the performance-based awards we granted to existing employees of Trulia and Market Leader in connection with the Market Leader acquisition. Market Leader’s contribution to sales and marketing expenses was $12.4 million since August 21, 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 Sales and marketing expenses increased to $33.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $17.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $16.0 million, or 90%. This increase was primarily the result of a $12.4 million increase in headcount and related benefits associated with the expansion of our sales personnel to support our revenue growth, a $0.2 million increase in stock-based compensation, and a $2.5 million increase in marketing and advertising expenses due to the increased marketing activities for Trulia Mobile Ads. These increases were partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in external contractor fees as we decreased usage of external contractors and hired more full time employees. Sales and marketing expenses increased to 49% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012 from 46% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2011, due to substantial headcount growth in our sales and marketing function and marketing expense associated with the launch of our Trulia Mobile Ad product in May 2012. General and Administrative Expenses 2013 Compared to 2012 General and administrative expenses increased to $32.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $13.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $19.0 million, or 139%. The increase was primarily due to an $8.8 million increase in Trulia standalone labor and facilities related costs, including compensation paid in stock, largely as a result of a 29% increase in headcount in the year ended December 31, 2013. Also, $2.3 million of the increase was related to stock-based compensation expense for the performance-based awards we granted to existing employees of Trulia and Market Leader in connection with the Market Leader acquisition. Market Leader’s contribution to general and administrative expenses was $5.9 million since August 21, 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 General and administrative expenses increased to $13.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $6.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $7.5 million, or 123%. This increase was primarily the result of a $2.9 million increase in salary and related benefits, a $0.4 million increase in stock-based 66 Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Sales and marketing $ 71,370 $ 33,747 $ 17,717 111 % 90 % Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) General and administrative $ 32,702 $ 13,659 $ 6,123 139 % 123 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements compensation expenses, a $0.3 million increase in facilities related expenses due to headcount growth, and a $2.5 million increase in the outside accounting services related to our IPO in September 2012. General and administrative expenses increased to 20% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012 from 16% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to the significant increase in our financial, accounting, and legal headcount and increased expenses for third party service providers to support our transition to being a public reporting company. Acquisition Related Costs In the year ended December 31, 2013 we incurred $6.1 million of expenses in connection with our acquisition of Market Leader primarily related to investment banking and legal fees. Interest Expense 2013 Compared to 2012 Interest expense increased to $1.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $0.1 million, or 9%. This increase is attributable to an incremental interest expense associated with our outstanding indebtedness. 2012 Compared to 2011 Interest expense increased to $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $0.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $0.6 million, or 161%. The increase is attributable to an incremental interest expense associated with our outstanding indebtedness. Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability 2013 Compared to 2012 Change in fair value of warrant liability decreased to $0 in the year ended December 31, 2013 from $369,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $369,000, or 100%. We issued this warrant when a new credit facility was established in September 2011. Upon the first public filing of our registration statement in August 2012, the anti-dilution provisions in this warrant terminated. As a result, the preferred stock warrant liability was remeasured to fair value and the remaining liability was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Immediately prior to completion of our initial public offering in September 2012, the preferred stock converted to common stock and this warrant to purchase preferred stock converted into a warrant to purchase common 67 Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Acquisition Related Costs $ 6,065 $ — $ — 100 % — % Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Interest expense $ 1,107 $ 1,016 $ 389 9 % 161 % Year Ended December 31, 2012 to 2013 % Change 2011 to 2012 % Change 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Change in fair value of warrant liability $ — $ (369 ) $ (16 ) (100 )% 2,206 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements stock. Because this warrant no longer contained anti-dilution provisions, this warrant was no longer remeasured to fair value on an ongoing basis. The common stock warrants were net exercised in February 2013 and were no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2013. 2012 Compared to 2011 Change in fair value of warrant liability increased to $369,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $16,000 in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $353,000, or 2,206%. This increase is attributable to an increase in the fair value of the warrant to purchase convertible preferred stock.

(1) (2) (3) Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Adjusted EBITDA The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods indicated below. See the section titled “Selected Financial and Other Data” for the detailed reconciliation to our net loss and for more information on our use and the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of our financial performance. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 2013, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents totaling $225.6 million, which consists of bank deposits and money market funds. On December 17, 2013 we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes, which included a $30 million of principal amount issued pursuant to an option to purchase additional notes granted to the initial purchasers. The aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes is due on December 15, 2020. We received net proceeds of $222.4 million after deducting offering expenses of $7.6 million payable by us. On August 20, 2013 we acquired all the outstanding shares of capital stock of Market Leader for 4,412,489 shares of our common stock and $170.5 million in cash. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Market Leader common stock was converted into the right to receive (a) $6.00 in cash, without interest, and subject to applicable withholding tax, and (b) 0.1553 of a share of the Company’s common stock, for a total purchase price of $372.7 million. In connection with the merger, all of the outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units of Market Leader were converted into stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units, respectively, denominated in shares of our common stock based on formulas set forth in the Merger Agreement. On March 20, 2013, we completed our follow-on public offering pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock, at a public offering price of $29.75 per share, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to us of $98.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses 70 Three Months Ended Dec. 31, 2013 Sept. 30, 2013 June 30, 2013 March 31, 2013 Dec. 31, 2012 Sept. 30, 2012 June 30, 2012 March 31, 2012 (Unaudited, in thousands) Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (11,146 ) $ (2,220 ) $ (2,441 ) $ (1,982 ) $ (1,592 ) $ (1,689 ) $ (3,440 ) $ (4,200 ) Non-GAAP adjustments: Interest income (9 ) (33 ) (52 ) (26 ) (26 ) (3 ) (4 ) (3 ) Interest expense 451 203 217 236 242 268 239 252 Loss on extinguishment of debt 141 — — — — — — — Depreciation and amortization 5,924 3,380 1,548 1,360 1,112 886 789 797 Change in fair value of warrant liability — — — — — 46 107 216 Compensation paid in stock 12,305 7,290 1,986 1,392 761 793 551 465 Income tax provision (benefit) 17 (7,869 ) 110 231 67 — — — Acquisition related costs — 4,060 2,005 — — — — — Adjusted EBITDA $ 7,683 $ 4,811 $ 3,403 $ 1,211 $ 564 $ 301 $ (1,758 ) $ (2,473 ) Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements payable by us. On March 26, 2013, we sold an additional 525,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $29.75 per share, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to us of $14.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offerings expenses payable by us. In addition, another 3,117,311 shares were sold by certain selling stockholders, which included 406,606 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares. We did not receive any proceeds from sales by the selling stockholders. Prior to our follow-on public offering, our operations were financed primarily by the net proceeds of $89.4 million from our initial public offering in September 2012, and $10.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of indebtedness from a Credit Facility. We repaid in full the outstanding balance of the Credit Facility in December 2013 with the net proceeds received from issuance of the 2020 Notes. We have incurred cumulative losses of $64.9 million from our operations to date, and expect to incur additional losses in the future. We believe that our cash balances and the cash flows generated by operations will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. However, our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the cash that may be used in connection with acquisitions or other investments, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities, and the timing and extent of our spending to support our technology and development efforts. To the extent that existing cash and cash equivalents, and cash from operations are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Credit Facility In September 2011, we entered into a loan and security agreement with Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc., or Hercules, providing for a secured term loan facility, or the Credit Facility, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20.0 million to be used for general business purposes. The indebtedness we incurred under this agreement was secured by substantially all of our assets. This agreement contained customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limited or restricted our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, repurchase stock, pay dividends, transfer assets, merge or consolidate, and make acquisitions. On December 17, 2013 we repaid the outstanding $7.2 million of this Credit Facility including accrued interest with the proceeds of the 2020 Notes, and terminated the Credit Facility. Cash Flows The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated: Cash Flows from Operating Activities Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $1.4 million. The primary component of our cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2013 was our net loss of $17.8 million. The cash flows from our net loss were increased by our non-cash operating activities and net cash flows provided through changes in certain of our operating assets and liabilities. Specifically, we recognized non-cash charges of $12.2 million for depreciation and amortization of our property and equipment, $23.0 million for compensation paid in stock, and $7.9 million for release of valuation allowance related to the Market Leader acquisition. We also recognized changes in operating assets and liabilities which used $11.6 million of cash from operating 71 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 (In thousands) Cash provided by (used in) operating activities $ (1,372 ) $ 4,153 $ 1,132 Cash provided by (used in) investing activities (175,143 ) (1,970 ) (6,638 ) Cash provided by financing activities 302,095 90,793 8,152 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements activities. The primary driver of the changes in our operating assets and liabilities was a $6.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $6.7 million decrease in accounts payable. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities were also affected by an increase in deferred rent of $4.9 million primarily due to the acquisition of Market Leader and their lease in Bellevue, Washington; an increase in accounts receivable of $5.0 million due to timing of collections; an increase in accrued liabilities of $3.3 million primarily due to the overall growth in our business during the year; and a decrease in deferred revenue of $3.3 million primarily due to our revenue growth but also due to the timing of collections. Cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $4.2 million. The primary component of our cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2012 was our net loss of $10.9 million. The cash flows from our net loss were more than offset by our non-cash operating activities and net cash flows provided through changes in certain of our operating assets and liabilities. Specifically, we recognized non-cash charges of $3.6 million for depreciation and amortization of our property and equipment, $2.6 million for stock-based compensation, and $0.4 million for the fair value remeasurement of the preferred stock warrant liability. We also recognized changes in operating assets and liabilities which provided $8.3 million of cash from operating activities. Of this $8.3 million, $1.0 million related to an accrued withholding tax from stock options exercise collected from a former employee, which we remitted to the appropriate tax authorities after December 31, 2012. The primary driver of the changes in our operating assets and liabilities was an $8.5 million increase in deferred revenue due to the increase in the number of total subscribers and average monthly revenue per subscriber during the year. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities were also affected by an increase in accrued liabilities in the amount of $1.8 million, due primarily to the overall growth in our business during the year; increases in accrued compensation and benefits of $2.5 million due to the growth in our headcount, an increase in accounts receivable of $2.5 million, primarily due to our revenue growth but also to timing of collections; and increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.9 million mainly due to expansion of our facilities in Denver and overall growth in our business. Cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $1.1 million. The primary component of our cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2011 was our net loss of $6.2 million. The cash flows from our net loss were more than offset by our non-cash operating activities and net cash flows provided through changes in certain of our operating assets and liabilities. Specifically, we recognized non-cash charges of $2.5 million for depreciation and amortization of our property and equipment, $1.5 million for stock-based compensation, and $0.2 million provision for doubtful accounts. We also recognized changes in operating assets and liabilities which provided $3.0 million of cash from operating activities. The primary driver of the changes in our operating assets and liabilities was a $3.0 million increase in deferred revenue due to the increase in the number of total subscribers and average monthly revenue per subscriber during the year. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities were also significantly affected by an increase in accounts receivable of $1.4 million, primarily due to our revenue growth but also to timing of certain payments related to generally slower collections during the year. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities were also affected by increases in accrued compensation and benefits of $0.7 million and deferred rent of $0.7 million due to the growth in our headcount and expanded facilities during the year. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities were also affected by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the amount of $0.4 million, due primarily to the overall growth in our business during the year. Cash Flows from Investing Activities Cash used in investing activities of $175.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 was primarily related to the acquisition of Market Leader for $160.8 million, net of cash acquired of $9.7 million. We used $16.6 million to purchases property and equipment for our offices in San Francisco, New York, and Bellevue due to expansion of our offices and increases in headcount. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily related to the maturity of short-term investments in the amount of $4.3 million, which was more than offset by the acquisition of property and equipment in the amount of $5.5 million. 72 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Historically, cash used in investing activities was primarily related to the acquisition of property and equipment and patents, which amounted to $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Cash used in investing activities was also attributable to the increases in our restricted cash and deposit balance of $2.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2011. Cash Flows from Financing Activities Cash flows from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $302.1 million were primarily comprised of net proceeds of $223.1 million from the issuance of our 2020 Notes in December 2013, net proceeds of $113.0 million from our follow-on public offering in March 2013, and $7.0 million proceeds from exercise of stock options. These inflows were partially offset by a $30.0 million payment to repurchase our outstanding shares and $10.0 million of repayments on our long-term debt. Cash flows from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $90.8 million was comprised of net proceeds of $89.4 million from our IPO in September 2012 and proceeds of $1.7 million from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by $0.3 million of capital lease payments. Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 of $8.2 million was primarily comprised of proceeds of $12.0 million from additional borrowings and $0.4 million from exercise of stock options, which were partially offset by $4.2 million of capital lease and long-term debt repayments. Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013: We had unrecognized tax benefits in the amount of $2.3 million as of December 31, 2013 related to uncertain tax positions. However, there is uncertainty regarding when these liabilities will require settlement so these amounts were not included in the contractual obligations table above. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements and do not have any holdings in variable interest entities. Segment Information We have one business activity and operate in one reportable segment. 73 Payments Due by Period Contractual Obligations: Less Than 1 Year 1 to 3 Years 3 to 5 Years More Than 5 Years Total (In thousands) Long-term debt $ — $ — $ — $ 230,000 $ 230,000 Interest on long-term debt 6,325 12,650 12,650 12,650 44,275 Operating leases 3,186 6,309 5,236 7,684 22,415 Total contractual obligations $ 9,511 $ 18,959 $ 17,886 $ 250,334 $ 296,690 The 2020 Notes carry a 2.75% stated interest rate. Operating leases include total future minimum rent payments under noncancelable operating lease agreements. (1) (2) (1) (2) Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily include interest rate sensitivities as follows: Interest Rate Risk We had cash and cash equivalents of $225.6 million as of December 31, 2013, which consists of bank deposits and money market funds. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. To date, fluctuations in interest income have not been significant. We also had the $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes outstanding as of December 31, 2013, due on December 15, 2020. The 2020 Notes carry an interest of 2.75% per year. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we have not been exposed to, nor do we anticipate being exposed to, material risks due to changes in interest rates. The interest rate on our outstanding debt is variable. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during any of the periods presented would not have had a material impact on our financial statements. 74 Item 7A.

San Francisco, California We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Trulia, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in Part IV, Item 15. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Trulia, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements 1. Organization and Description of Business We were incorporated on June 1, 2005 in the state of Delaware as Realwide, Inc. On September 22, 2005, we changed our name to Trulia, Inc. Our marketplace, delivered through the web and mobile applications, gives consumers powerful tools to research homes and neighborhoods and enables real estate professionals to efficiently market their listings and attract new clients. We also offer a comprehensive suite of free and subscription products that provide real estate professionals with access to transaction-ready consumers and help them grow and manage their online presence. Initial Public Offering In September 2012, we completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) in which we sold 5,900,000 shares of our common stock, which included 900,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $17.00 per share. In addition, another 1,000,000 shares were sold by certain selling stockholders. We received net proceeds of $89.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, from sales of our shares in the IPO. We did not receive any proceeds from sales by the selling stockholders. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, all shares of the then-outstanding convertible preferred stock automatically converted into an aggregate of 14,161,444 shares of common stock, and an outstanding warrant to purchase convertible preferred stock automatically converted into a warrant to purchase up to 120,961 shares of common stock. Follow-on Public Offering In March 2013, we completed a follow-on public offering in which we sold an aggregate of 4,025,000 shares of our common stock, which included 525,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $29.75 per share. In addition, another 3,117,311 shares were sold by certain selling stockholders, which included 406,606 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of an option to purchase additional shares. We received aggregate net proceeds of $113.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, from sales of our shares in the offering. We did not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of shares by the selling stockholders. Acquisition of Market Leader, Inc. In August 2013, we acquired all the outstanding shares of capital stock of Market Leader, Inc. (“Market Leader”) for 4,412,489 shares of our common stock and $170.5 million in cash. Market Leader is a provider of software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)-based customer relationship management software for the real estate sector. Under the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), each outstanding share of Market Leader common stock was converted into the right to receive (a) $6.00 in cash, without interest, and subject to applicable withholding tax, and (b) 0.1553 of a share of our common stock, for a total purchase consideration of $372.7 million. In connection with the merger, all of the outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units of Market Leader were converted into stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units, respectively, denominated in shares of our common stock based on formulas set forth in the Merger Agreement. We have included Market Leader’s results of operations prospectively after August 20, 2013, the date of acquisition. Further detail on this business combination is presented in Note 5 of these consolidated financial statements. 81 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Convertible Senior Notes On December 17, 2013, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes, due in 2020 (the “2020 Notes”), which included a $30 million of principal amount issued pursuant to an over-allotment option granted to the initial purchasers. The aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes is due on December 15, 2020. We received net proceeds of $222.4 million, after deducting offering expenses payable by us. Interest began to accrue on December 17, 2013 and is payable semi-annually every June 15 and December 15, starting on June 15, 2014. We may not redeem the 2020 Notes prior to December 20, 2018. We may redeem the 2020 Notes, at our option, in whole or in part on or after December 20, 2018, if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period. Holders of the notes may convert all or portion all or any portion of their notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. The notes are convertible at an initial conversion rate of $27.8303 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment in certain events. Further detail on these 2020 Notes is presented in Note 7 of these consolidated financial statements. Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties We operate in a dynamic industry and, accordingly, can be affected by a variety of factors. For example, we believe that changes in any of the following areas could have a significant negative effect on our future financial position, results of operations, or cash flows: ability to obtain additional financing; advances and trends in new technologies and industry standards; changes in certain strategic relationships or customer relationships; market acceptance of our products; development of sales channels; loss of significant customers; litigation or other claims against us; the hiring, training, and retention of key employees; changes in enacted tax rates; and new product introductions by competitors. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Trulia and our wholly owned subsidiary Market Leader, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires that we make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates include: revenue recognition; allowance for doubtful accounts; useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets; recoverability of long-lived assets, intangible assets with definite lives and goodwill; determination of fair value of our common stock, stock options and preferred and common stock warrants; income tax uncertainties, including a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; accounting for business combinations; and contingencies. We base these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recorded revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 82 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Reclassification Certain amounts in the balance sheet and accompanying footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2012 have been reclassified to be consistent with the current year presentation. Net intangible assets of $445,000 as of December 31, 2012 have been reclassified out of other assets into an intangible assets line item in the balance sheet. Additionally, $226,000 of accrued liabilities related to purchases of property and equipment in Note 4 have been reclassified separately to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Concentrations of Credit Risk and Credit Evaluations Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, and trade accounts receivable. We deposit our cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality; however, at times, balances exceed federally insured limits. Our accounts receivable are derived from customers in the United States of America and Canada. We do not require our customers to provide collateral to support accounts receivable. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and maintain allowances for estimated credit losses. Actual credit losses may differ from our estimates. No customer represented 10% or more of total revenue during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011. One customer accounted for 13.0% and 10.4% of our gross accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Revenue Recognition Our revenue is comprised of Marketplace revenue and Media revenue. Marketplace Revenue. Marketplace revenue primarily consists of products and services sold to real estate professionals, including agents, brokers, agents of property managers, and mortgage lenders on a fixed fee subscription, Cost Per Click (“CPC”), or Cost Per Lead (“CPL”) basis. We currently sell three sets of products to real estate professionals on a subscription basis. The first set of products, which includes Trulia Local Ads and Trulia Mobile Ads , enables real estate professionals to promote themselves on our search results pages and property details pages for a local market area. Real estate professionals purchase subscriptions to these products based upon their specified market share for a city or zip code, at a fixed monthly price, for periods ranging from one month to one year, with pricing depending on demand, location, and the percentage of market share purchased. Our second set of products allows real estate professionals to receive prominent placement of their listings in our search results. Real estate professionals sign up for new subscriptions to this product at a fixed monthly price for periods that generally range from 1 month to 24 months. Our third set of products is our comprehensive premium software-as-a-service based marketing products typically sold to real estate professionals as a bundle of products under a fixed fee subscription. We also sell a base version of these products to strategic franchise networks for specified contractual amounts over a number of years and partner with them to drive adoption of our premium solution across their network. Our software-as-a-service based marketing products were obtained as part of our acquisition of Market Leader in August 2013. Media Revenue. Media revenue primarily consists of display advertising sold on a Cost per Thousand (“CPM”), CPC, and CPL basis to advertisers promoting their brand on trulia.com, our mobile website, m.trulia.com and our partners websites (cumulatively “Trulia Websites”). Impressions are the number of times an advertisement is loaded on a web page and clicks are the number of times users click on an advertisement. Revenue is recognized in the periods the clicks or impressions are delivered. Pricing is primarily based on advertisement size and position on the Trulia Websites and fees are generally billed monthly. As our mobile web pages and mobile applications offer less space on which to display advertising, a shift in user traffic from our websites to mobile products could decrease our advertising inventory and negatively affect our Media revenue. We do not believe that we have experienced a shift in user traffic from our websites to our mobile applications, as our monthly unique visitors and mobile monthly unique visitors each continued to grow at a rapid pace. 83 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Multiple-Element Arrangements We enter into arrangements with customers that include combinations of CPC media placements, CPM media placements, and subscription products. For the year ended December 31, 2010, because we have not yet established the fair value for each element, advertising revenue was recognized ratably over the contract term. Beginning on January 1, 2011, we adopted new authoritative guidance on multiple-element arrangements, using the prospective method for all arrangements entered into or materially modified from the date of adoption. Under this new guidance, we allocate arrangement consideration in multiple-element revenue arrangements at the inception of an arrangement to all deliverables or those packages in which all components of the package are delivered at the same time, based on the relative selling price method in accordance with the selling price hierarchy, which includes: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) if available; (ii) third-party evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available; and (iii) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”) if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. VSOE- We determine VSOE based on our historical pricing and discounting practices for the specific product when sold separately. In determining VSOE, we require that a substantial majority of the standalone selling prices for these products fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range. For certain subscription products, we have been able to establish VSOE. TPE- When VSOE cannot be established for deliverables in multiple-element arrangements, we apply judgment with respect to whether it can establish a selling price based on TPE. TPE is determined based on competitor prices for similar deliverables when sold separately. Generally, our go-to-market strategy differs from that of our peers and our offerings contain a significant level of differentiation such that the comparable pricing of the products cannot be obtained. Furthermore, we are unable to reliably determine what similar competitor selling prices are on a standalone basis. As a result, we have not been able to establish selling price based on TPE. BESP- When we are unable to establish selling price using VSOE or TPE, we use BESP in our allocation of arrangement consideration. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which we would transact a sale if the service was sold regularly on a standalone basis. As we have not been able to establish VSOE or TPE for CPM media placements, CPC media placements, and certain subscription products, we determine BESP for these deliverables based on the following: We limit the amount of allocable arrangement consideration to amounts that are fixed or determinable and that are not contingent on future performance or future deliverables. We regularly review BESP. Changes in assumptions or judgments or changes to the elements in the arrangement could cause a material increase or decrease in the amount of revenue that we report in a particular period. We recognize the relative fair value of the products as they are delivered assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses related to operating our websites and mobile applications, including those associated with the operation of our data centers and customer websites, hosting fees, customer 84 • The list price represents a component of the go-to-market strategy established by senior management. Our list prices are based on the features of the products offered. These features, which consist of the size and placement of the advertisements on our website, impact the list prices which vary depending on the specifications of the features. In addition, the list prices are impacted by market conditions, including the conditions of the real estate market and economy in general, and our competitive landscape; and • Analysis of our selling prices for these deliverables. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements service related headcount expenses including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, cost to generate leads for customers, licensed content, multiple listing services fees, revenue sharing costs, credit card processing fees, third-party contractor fees, and allocated overhead. Technology and Development Costs to research and develop our products are expensed as incurred. These costs consist primarily of technology and development headcount related expenses including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, third party contractor fees and allocated overhead primarily associated with developing new technologies. Technology and development also includes amortization of capitalized costs (“product development costs”) associated with the development of our marketplace. Product Development Costs Product development costs include costs related to the development of our marketplace which is inclusive of costs related to the development of our delivery points, the website and mobile applications. Product development costs are accounted for as follows: all costs incurred in the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed as incurred while certain costs incurred in the application development stage of a new product or projects to provide significant additional functionality to existing products are capitalized if certain criteria are met. Maintenance and enhancement costs are typically expensed as incurred. We capitalized costs associated with product development of $8.2 million, $2.5 million and $1.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, and recorded related amortization expenses of $2.7 million, $1.1 million and $708,000 during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The net book value of capitalized product development costs was $7.5 million and $2.0 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Such costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which have been estimated to be two years. Amortization expense is included in technology and development in the statements of operations. Advertising Expense Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Our advertising expenses were $7.7 million, $2.6 million and $459,000 during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. Stock-Based Compensation We recognize compensation costs related to stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant, net of estimated forfeitures. We estimates the grant date fair value of option grants, and the resulting stock-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date fair value of the stock-based awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of the respective awards. We account for stock options issued to nonemployees based on the fair value of the awards determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of stock options granted to nonemployees are remeasured as the stock options vest, and the resulting change in value, if any, is recognized in the statement of operations during the period the related services are rendered. Income Taxes We account for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured based on differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established to reduce net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. 85 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements We account for uncertainty in tax positions recognized in the financial statements by recognizing a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized. Our policy for classifying interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits is to include such items as tax expense. Comprehensive Loss During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, we did not have any other comprehensive income and, therefore, the net loss and comprehensive loss were the same for all periods presented. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders We calculate the basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders in conformity with the two-class method required for companies with participating securities. Immediately prior to the completion of our IPO in September 2012, all shares of outstanding preferred stock automatically converted into 14,161,444 shares of common stock. In addition, our outstanding preferred stock warrants converted into 56,054 common stock warrants. Under the two-class method, in periods when we have net income, net income attributable to common stockholders is determined by allocating undistributed earnings, calculated as net income less current period convertible preferred stock non-cumulative dividends, between common stock and the convertible preferred stock. In computing diluted net income attributable to common stockholders, undistributed earnings are re-allocated to reflect the potential impact of dilutive securities. Our basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. For purposes of this calculation, options to purchase common stock, and common stock warrants are considered common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is antidilutive. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash equivalents consisted of money market funds. All credit card and debit card transactions that process as of the last day of the fiscal year and settle within a few days in the subsequent period are also classified as cash and cash equivalents. The amounts due from third party merchant processors for these transactions classified as cash totaled $349,000 and $135,000 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of our estimated allowances for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on an assessment of our ability to collect on customer accounts receivable. We regularly reviews the allowance by considering certain factors such as historical experience, industry data, credit quality, age of accounts receivable balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. In cases where we are aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet their financial obligations, we record a specific allowance against amounts due from the customer and thereby reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we reasonably believe will be collected. We write-off accounts receivable against the allowance when we determine the balance is uncollectible and no longer actively pursue collection of the receivable. We recorded a provision for uncollectible accounts receivable of $351,000, $95,000 and $176,000 during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. 86 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists of certificates of deposit held as collateral at a financial institution related to a property lease in our name, and to insure the corporate credit card spending. These certificates of deposit have contractual maturities of 12 months or less. The balance of the restricted cash was $1.6 million and $385,000 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are initially recorded at cost and depreciated using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. The useful lives of our property and equipment are as follows: Depreciation expense of assets acquired through capital leases is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the statements of operations. Business Combination We recognize identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. While we use our best estimates and assumptions as a part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill to the extent that we identify adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations. Purchased Intangible Assets Purchased intangible assets with a determinable economic life are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful life of each asset on a straight-line basis. The useful lives of the purchased intangible assets are as follows: Purchased intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. 87 Computer equipment 2 to 3 years Office equipment, furniture and fixtures 3 to 5 years Capitalized product development costs 2 to 3 years Network equipment 5 years Leasehold improvements Shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life Enterprise Relationships 10 Premium Users 5 Existing Technology 7 Trade Names 10 Home/MLS data feeds 10 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price paid over the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We have determined that we operate as one reporting unit and have selected December 1 as the date to perform our annual impairment test. In the valuation of our goodwill, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows to be derived from our business. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment for these assets. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its net book value, including goodwill. If the net book value exceeds its fair value, then we would perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of the impairment loss. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of the entity to its net book value. In calculating the implied fair value of our goodwill, the fair value of the entity would be allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of the entity over the amount assigned to the other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. We were not required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test during the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012. There was no impairment of goodwill recorded for the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. To date, we believe that no such impairment has occurred. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue consists of prepaid but unrecognized subscription revenue, advertising fees received or billed in advance of delivery and for amounts received in instances when revenue recognition criteria have not been met. Deferred revenue is recognized when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Preferred Stock Warrant Liability Our warrants to purchase convertible preferred stock were classified as liabilities and recorded in other current liabilities within the accompanying balance sheets at fair value upon issuance because these warrants contained certain anti-dilution provisions which required us to lower the exercise price of the warrants upon any future down-round financings. Therefore, the warrants were subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date, and any change in fair value was recognized in the statements of operations. At the time of issuance, the aggregate fair value of these warrants were determined using a Monte Carlo model. We adjusted the liability quarterly for changes in fair value using a Monte Carlo model until the completion of the IPO in September 2012. Upon conversion of the underlying preferred stock, the related warrant liability was remeasured to fair value and the remaining liability was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Segment Information We have one reportable segment. Our reportable segment has been identified based on how our chief operating decision maker manages our business, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. The chief executive officer acts as the chief operating decision maker and reviews financial and operational information on an entity-wide basis. 88 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act, we meet the definition of an “emerging growth company.” We have irrevocably elected to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act. In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, “ Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, ” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward when settlement in this manner is available under the tax law. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2014. Adoption of this guidance has no impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in the current or future periods. In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income, requiring entities to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2013. In the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 we did not have any other comprehensive income and, therefore, the net loss and comprehensive loss was the same for all periods presented. 3. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The current accounting guidance for fair value measurements defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures as follows: Level I—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level II—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level III—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying values of our financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and restricted cash approximated their fair values. The estimated fair value and carrying value of our convertible notes as of December 31, 2013 were $252.0 million and $230.0 million respectively. We determined the estimated fair value of the convertible notes through use of option pricing and discounted cash flow models. The fair value is classified as Level III due to the use of significant unobservable inputs such as estimated long-term volatility of our common stock and credit risk premium. Long-term debt as of December 31, 2012 was stated at the carrying value as the stated interest rate approximated market rates available to us at that time. 89 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Fair Value Measurements on a recurrent basis (in thousands): None of the cash equivalents or the restricted cash held by us had unrealized losses and there were no realized losses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. There were no other-than-temporary impairments for these instruments as of December 31, 2013 or 2012. As of December 31, 2013, the contractual maturity of all certificates of deposit were from less than one year to three years. Prior to September 2012, we carried a Level III liability related to a preferred stock warrant that was remeasured in August 2012 before our initial public offering in September 2012 and reclassified as additional paid-in capital. The fair value was measured using a Monte Carlo model and inputs used to determine the estimated fair value of the warrant liability in August 2012 included the estimated fair value of the underlying stock at the valuation date, the estimated term of the warrants, the risk-free interest rates, the expected dividends, and the expected volatility of the underlying stock. Upon completion of our IPO in September 2012 the preferred stock warrants had converted into common stock warrants and were no longer carried as a liability recorded at fair value at December 31, 2012. The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level III financial liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands): The gains and losses from remeasurement of this Level III financial liability were recorded through the change in fair value of warrant liability in the statements of operations. 90 As of December 31, 2013 Level I Level II Level III Total Financial Assets: Money market funds $ 6,683 $ — $ — $ 6,683 Restricted cash 1,589 — — 1,589 Total financial assets $ 8,272 $ — $ — $ 8,272 As of December 31, 2012 Level I Level II Level III Total Financial Assets: Money market funds $ 6,681 $ — $ — $ 6,681 Restricted cash 385 — — 385 Total financial assets $ 7,066 $ — $ — $ 7,066 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 Fair value—beginning of period $ — $ 297 Issuance of preferred stock warrants — — Change in fair value of Level III financial liabilities — 369 Reclassification of warrant liability to stockholders’ equity — (666 ) Fair value—end of period $ — $ — Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements 4.

Acquisition of Market Leader Market Leader During the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, we acquired all the outstanding shares of capital stock of Market Leader, Inc. for 4,412,489 shares of our common stock and $170.5 million in cash. Market Leader is a provider of software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)-based customer relationship management software for the real estate sector. Under the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), each outstanding share of Market Leader common stock was converted into the right to receive (a) $6.00 in cash, without interest, and subject to applicable withholding tax, and (b) 0.1553 of a share of the Company’s common stock, for a total purchase price of $372.7 million. In connection with the merger, all of the outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units of Market Leader were converted into stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units, respectively, denominated in shares of our common stock based on formulas set forth in the Merger Agreement. We have included Market Leader’s results of operations prospectively after August 20, 2013, the date of acquisition. The acquisition adds additional products and services to our offerings for real estate professionals. With these additional products, we now offer products and services that encompass the entire real estate agent workflow—from generating and capturing initial leads through nurturing those leads into clients and real estate transactions. The acquisition has also added new customers, technology assets and intellectual property assets. The purchase price of $372.7 million reflects the cash amount paid and the fair value of our common stock transferred as consideration for all outstanding shares of Market Leader, and the fair value of pre-combination services of Market Leader employees reflected in the vested equity awards assumed by us in the acquisition. The purchase price components are summarized in the following table (in thousands): The fair value of the 4,412,489 shares of our common stock issued as part of the consideration paid for Market Leader was determined on the basis of the closing market price of our common stock on the acquisition date. The fair value of the vested equity awards was determined by using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the applicable assumptions as of the acquisition date. The fair value of Market Leader unvested stock awards (that were converted to our awards), relate to post-combination services of Market Leader employees and will be recorded as share-based compensation expense over the respective vesting periods. 92 Cash paid for the outstanding stock of Market Leader $ 170,497 Fair value of common stock transferred as consideration for the outstanding stock of Market Leader (4,412,489 shares) 189,296 Fair value of vested equity awards assumed by us 12,871 Total purchase price $ 372,664 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements The total purchase price has been allocated to the preliminary net tangible and intangible assets based on their preliminary fair values as of August 20, 2013 as set forth below. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary net tangible assets and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill recorded as a result of this acquisition includes intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as the assembled workforce and anticipated synergies from complementary products and largely non-overlapping customer bases. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. We expect to continue to obtain information to assist us in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. Our preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands): We acquired a net deferred tax liability of $7.9 million related to Market Leader in this business combination. Intangible assets acquired consist of the following (in thousands): Enterprise relationships consist of contracts with national real estate franchisors that serve as channels for selling Market Leader products and services to real estate agents. Premium users consist of real estate professionals and brokerages that purchase enhanced versions of Market Leader’s products and services. Existing technology consists of software products and supporting technology infrastructure developed by Market Leader. Trade names includes the several registered trademarks, logos and domain names owned by Market Leader, including Market Leader, House Values and Sharper Agent. MLS data feeds means the contractual rights to display for sale home listings from hundreds of multiple listing services in the United States. The estimated fair value of the intangible assets acquired was determined by us, and we considered or relied in part upon a valuation report of a third-party expert. We used an income approach to measure the fair value of the enterprise relationships based on the multi-period excess earnings method, whereby the fair value is estimated based upon the present value of cash flows that the applicable asset is expected to generate. We used an income 93 Cash $ 9,662 Short-term investments 2,999 Other identifiable tangible assets 3,732 Total tangible assets 16,393 Accounts payable (7,058 ) Accrued expenses and other current liabilities (3,104 ) Accrued compensation and benefits (2,253 ) Other identifiable liabilities (8,163 ) Total liabilities (20,578 ) Net acquired tangible assets (4,185 ) Identifiable intangible assets 123,100 Goodwill 253,749 Total purchase price allocation $ 372,664 Estimated Amortization Period (in years) Enterprise relationships $ 29,000 10 Premium users 15,200 5 Existing technology 32,300 7 Trade names 42,900 10 Home/MLS data feeds 3,700 10 Total intangible assets acquired $ 123,100 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements approach to measure the fair value of the customer relationships based on the multi-period excess earnings method, whereby the fair value is estimated based upon the present value of cash flows that the applicable asset is expected to generate. We used an income approach to measure the fair value of the developed technology based on the relief-from-royalty method. We used an income approach to measure the fair value of the trade names based on the relief-from-royalty method. We used a cost approach to measure the fair value of the home/MLS data feed based on the estimated cost to replace the data feed library. Net tangible assets were valued at their respective carrying amounts, as we believe that these amounts approximate their current fair values. Acquisition-related costs incurred, including legal and accounting fees and other external costs directly related to the acquisition, were expensed as incurred. Acquisition-related costs of $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 are included as a separate line item in our combined statement of operations. The following pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the acquisition of Market Leader as if it was consummated on January 1, 2012 (the beginning of the comparable prior reporting period), and includes pro forma adjustments related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and direct and incremental transaction costs reflected in the historical financial statements. Direct and incremental transaction costs are excluded from the annual period ended December 31, 2013 pro forma condensed combined financial information presented below, and included in the annual period ended December 31, 2012 pro forma condensed combined financial information presented below. The tax benefit of $6.7 million that resulted from the acquisition is recorded in the annual period ended December 31, 2012 pro-forma period. The pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only. The pro forma condensed combined financial information is not intended to represent or be indicative of the results of operations that would have been reported had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2012 and should not be taken as representative of future results of operations of the combined company. The following table presents the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information (in thousands, except per share amounts). Market Leader’s portion of the revenue and net loss in the period from the acquisition and through December 31, 2013 were $21.2 million and $9.3 million, respectively. 6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill The following table presents the change in goodwill from December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2013 (in thousands): Goodwill recorded as a result of this acquisition includes intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as the assembled workforce and anticipated synergies from complimentary products and largely non-overlapping customer bases.

Future amortization expense is expected to be as follows over each of the next five years (in thousands): 7. Debt Credit Facility In September 2011, we entered into a $20.0 million loan and security agreement which provided for a secured term loan facility (“Credit Facility”), issuable in tranches, with a financial institution. Under the Credit Facility, the first tranche of $5.0 million was drawn down in full in September 2011 and was used to repay our outstanding debt at the time. The second tranche of $5.0 million was also drawn down in full in September 2011. The Credit Facility carried an interest rate equal to the greater of the prime rate plus 2.75% or 6% for the first tranche, and a rate equal to the greater of the prime rate plus 5.5% or 8.75% for the second and third tranches. The loan facility was subject to interest-only payments through September 2012, which was repayable in 30 equal monthly installments of principal and interest after the interest-only period, and had a maturity date of March 2015. However, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we achieved certain financial milestones under the Credit Facility which provided for the extension of: a) the drawdown period from August 2012 to December 2012, b) the beginning of the interest-only period from September 2012 to March 2013, and c) the maturity date from March 2015 to September 2015. On December 31, 2012, the drawdown period for the remaining $10.0 million expired. 95 Year Ended December 31, 2013 Cost Accumulated Amortization Net Enterprise relationships $ 29,000 $ (1,052 ) $ 27,948 Premium users 15,200 (1,103 ) 14,097 Existing technology 32,300 (1,675 ) 30,625 Trade names 42,900 (1,557 ) 41,343 Home/MLS data feeds 3,700 (134 ) 3,566 Other 701 (392 ) 309 Total $ 123,801 $ 5,913 $ 117,888 Year Ended December 31, 2012 Cost Accumulated Amortization Net Patent $ 591 $ 146 $ 445 Total $ 591 $ 146 $ 445 Total 2014 $ 15,525 2015 15,214 2016 15,214 2017 15,214 2018 14,111 Thereafter 42,610 Total $ 117,888 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements In conjunction with the Credit Facility, we issued warrants to purchase up to 120,961 shares our stock as follows: (1) shares of Series D convertible preferred stock with an exercise price equal to $8.4738 per share or (2) shares of the next round of preferred stock financing at the per share price for such shares upon drawdown of the entire loan amount. Of this amount, warrants to purchase 56,054 shares of Series D convertible preferred stock became exercisable upon the drawdown of the first and second tranches and have an exercise price of $8.4738 per share. At the time of issuance, the aggregate fair value of these warrants was $281,000. We also paid a net facility charge of $165,000 upon drawdown of the first tranche of the loan. The fair value of warrants and net facility charge were recorded as debt discount to be amortized as interest expense over the contractual term of the loan agreement using the effective interest rate method. As a result of the debt discount, the effective interest rate for the Credit Facility differed from the contractual rate. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we recognized interest expense related to amortization and write off of the remaining debt discount in the amount of $241,000 and $167,000, respectively. The warrants were net exercised in February 2013 and were no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2013. On December 17, 2013 when the outstanding balance of the Credit Facility was $7.2 million, we repaid the Credit Facility with the proceeds from the convertible senior notes discussed below. We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $141,000. Convertible Senior Notes On December 17, 2013, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes, which included $30 million of principal amount issued pursuant to an over-allotment option granted to the initial purchasers. The aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes is due on December 15, 2020. We received net proceeds of $222.4 million after deducting offering expenses payable by us. The effective interest rate on the 2020 Notes is not materially different from the stated interest rate of 2.75%. We will pay 2.75% interest per annum on the outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Notes semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year beginning on June 15, 2014. Interest began to accrue on December 17, 2013. The 2020 Notes are unsecured senior obligations of Trulia. These 2020 Notes were offered and sold only to qualified institutional investors, as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”), and the 2020 Notes and the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2020 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act. We may not redeem the 2020 Notes prior to December 20, 2018. We may redeem the notes, at our option, in whole or in part on or after December 20, 2018, if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period. Holders of the 2020 Notes may convert all or any portion of their notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. The 2020 Notes are convertible at an initial conversion rate of $27.8303 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $35.93 per share of our common stock. The conversion rate will be adjusted for certain dilutive events and will be increased in the case of corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture governing the notes). The holders of the 2020 Notes will have the ability to require us to repurchase the notes in whole or in part upon the occurrence of an event that constitutes a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture governing the notes including such events as a “change in control” or “termination of trading”). In such case, the repurchase price would be 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase price. Certain events are also considered “Events of Default,” which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2020 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the notes, including, among other events, our failure to file with the SEC the reports required pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended, within 180 days after the time such report was required to be filed. There are no financial covenants to these 2020 Notes. 96 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements The conversion option of the 2020 Notes has no cash settlement provisions. Total issuance costs for the 2020 Notes were $7.6 million. We use the effective interest method to amortize the debt issuance costs. We believe that the conversion option does not meet the criteria for separate accounting as a derivative as it is indexed to our own stock. As of December 31, 2013, the future principal payments on the 2020 Notes are as follows (in thousands): We recognized interest expense and amortization of debt issue costs related to the 2020 Notes in the period from December 17, 2013 through December 31, 2013 of $246,000 and $38,000, respectively. 8. Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases We lease our corporate offices under noncancelable operating leases in San Francisco, Bellevue, Denver and New York that range from one to seven years in term. Rent expense from the facility leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and was $3.6 million, $1.6 million, and $1.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, our minimum payments under the noncancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands): Contingencies Merger Litigation Following the announcement that we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire Market Leader, purported class action law suits contesting the merger were filed and then consolidated under the caption In re Market Leader Inc. Shareholders’ Litigation, No. 13-2-20796-6 SEA (the “Merger Litigation”). On July 15, 2013, a superseding Consolidated Class Action Complaint (“Consolidated Complaint”), was filed, alleging that Market Leader’s board of directors breached its fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value or to engage in a fair sale process before approving the proposed acquisition of Market Leader by Trulia. The Consolidated Complaint also alleges that the defendants, including us and Mariner Acquisition Corp., our wholly owned subsidiary, failed to provide Market Leader shareholders with material information regarding the merger in the proxy statement and related public filings. The Consolidated Complaint further alleges that Market Leader, Trulia and Mariner Acquisition Corp. aided and abetted the Market Leader directors’ breaches of fiduciary duty. The Consolidated Complaint seeks an injunction prohibiting the consummation of the merger, rescission to the extent the merger terms have already been implemented, damages for the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty, and 97 Year Ending December 31: Amounts 2014 $ — 2015 — 2016 — 2017 — 2018 — Thereafter 230,000 Total noncurrent portion $ 230,000 Year Ending December 31: Operating Lease 2014 3,186 2015 3,768 2016 2,540 2017 2,581 2018 2,656 Thereafter 7,684 Total minimum lease payments $ 22,415 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements payment of plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs. On August 5, 2013, the parties entered into a memorandum of understanding to settle the Merger Litigation and resolve all allegations against Market Leader and the other defendants. The settlement, which is subject to court approval, provides for the release of all claims against the defendants relating to the merger, including those alleged in the Consolidated Complaint. Lead Counsel for the consolidated action intends to apply to the court for an award of fees and reimbursement of costs incurred in connection with the Merger Litigation. Market Leader has agreed not to oppose the application for an award of fees and reimbursement of costs up to $350,000. On December 23, 2013, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement. A final settlement approval hearing is scheduled for March 7, 2014. Zillow Litigation In September 2012, Zillow, Inc. (“Zillow”) filed a lawsuit against us alleging patent infringement. Zillow is seeking a permanent injunction against the alleged infringement, compensatory damages, and attorneys’ fees. We believe we have meritorious defenses and we intend to vigorously defend the claims against us. On September 11, 2013, we filed a petition for covered business method patent review with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”). The PTO has not yet ruled on the petition. Also, on September 12, 2013, we filed a motion to stay pending the review. The district court granted our motion to stay on October 7, 2013, and this matter is now stayed pending the conclusion of the covered business method patent review by the PTO. This litigation is still in its early stages and the final outcome, including any estimated liability, if any, with respect to these claims, is uncertain. We did not accrue any amounts related to this litigation because a reasonably possible range of loss, if any, that may result from this matter could not be estimated as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We have received, and may in the future continue to receive, claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the final outcome of the matters discussed above will not have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We will, however, accrue for losses for any known contingent liabilities when future payment is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. Indemnifications In the ordinary course of business, we enter into contractual arrangements under which we agree to provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the breach of such agreements and out of intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In these circumstances, payment may be conditional on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments. In addition, we have indemnification agreements with certain of its directors and executive officers that require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The terms of such obligations may vary. No such obligations existed as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 9. Stockholders’ Equity Shares repurchases In December 2013, we used $30.0 million of the net proceeds received from the issuance of the 2020 Notes to repurchase 1,085,383 shares of our common stock from purchasers of the 2020 Notes in privately negotiated transactions effected through J.P. Morgan Securities LLC or its affiliate as our agent. The purchase price per share of the common stock repurchased in this transactions was equal the closing price per share of our common stock on December 11, 2013, which was $27.64. We also repurchased nominal other amounts of shares of our common stock in the open market at their effective market prices at the time of purchase. All shares repurchases were accounted for at cost. 98 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Reverse Stock Split In September 2012, our board of directors and stockholders approved an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation as in effect prior to the completion of the IPO. The amendment provided for, among other things, a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock and outstanding convertible preferred stock (collectively, “capital stock”), which became effective on September 6, 2012. Accordingly, (i) every three shares of capital stock were combined into one share of capital stock, (ii) the number of shares of capital stock into which each outstanding option or warrant to purchase capital stock is exercisable, as the case may be, were proportionately decreased on a 1-for-3 basis, and (iii) the exercise price for each such outstanding option or warrant to purchase capital stock was proportionately increased on a 1-for-3 basis. All of the share numbers, share prices, and exercise prices have been adjusted within these financial statements, on a retroactive basis, to reflect this 1-for-3 reverse stock split Common Stock As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had reserved shares of common stock for issuance as follows: The common stock warrants were net exercised in February 2013 at an exercise price of $8.47 per share for an aggregate of 39,025 shares of common stock. Preferred Stock Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation registered in September 2012, we were authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock at $0.00001 par value per share. The preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series pursuant to a resolution or resolutions duly adopted by the board of directors. Our board of directors is authorized to determine by resolution the relevant powers of each issue of the preferred stock, such as designations, preferences, participation, dividend rights, divided rates, conversion rights, voting rights, etc. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding. 10. Stock-Based Compensation 2005 Stock Plan We granted options under our 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) until September 2012 when the 2005 Plan was terminated. Since the date of the plan termination, no more stock options or awards were issued under the plan, however the stock options issued prior to the plan termination continue to be outstanding. Under the terms of the 2005 Plan, we had the ability to grant incentive (“ISO”) and nonstatutory (“NSO”) stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSA”) and restricted stock units (“RSU”). The options were granted at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value per share at the grant date. Options granted under the 2005 Plan generally vest at a rate of 25% after the first year and then at 1/36 of the remaining shares each month thereafter and expire 10 years from the grant date. Certain options vest monthly over two to four years. 99 As of December 31, 2013 As of December 31, 2012 Stock options and awards issued and outstanding 6,452,832 3,608,326 Stock options and awards available for grant under 2012 Plan 1,976,815 2,127,279 Stock options and awards available for grant under the 2004 Plan 82,784 — Common stock warrants — 56,054 Total 8,512,431 5,791,659 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements 2012 Equity Incentive Plan Effective September 19, 2012, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, a 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The 2012 Plan provides for the grant of ISOs, NSOs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units, and performance shares to our employees, directors, and consultants. Upon adoption of the 2012 Plan, a total of 2,370,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance plus up to 1,000,000 shares from the expiration or termination of awards under the 2005 Plan. The shares available are increased at the beginning of each fiscal year by the lesser of (i) 2,100,000 shares, (ii) 4% of outstanding common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, or (iii) such number determined by our board of directors. On January 1, 2014 and 2013 the shares available for grant under the 2012 Plan were automatically increased by 1,463,303 and 1,102,112 shares, respectively. On June 5, 2013, the stockholders approved a 2,000,000 share increase to the 2012 Plan. Under the 2012 Plan, both the ISOs and NSOs are granted at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value per share of the underlying stock at the grant date. The board of directors determines the vesting period for each option award on the grant date, and the options generally expire 10 years from the grant date or such shorter term as may be determined by the board of directors. The restricted stock units are granted for zero purchase price. Market Leader 2004 Equity Incentive Plan Effective with the acquisition of Market Leader and pursuant to the Merger Agreement between us and Market Leader, we assumed Market Leader’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”), including all outstanding shares of restricted stock, all outstanding stock appreciation rights, all outstanding options and all shares available for future issuance under the 2004 Plan, and all of such securities became issuable for shares of our common stock, subject to appropriate adjustments to the number of shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement. We will now be able to grant equity-based awards, to the extent permissible by applicable law and NYSE rules, under the terms of the 2004 Plan or the terms of another plan adopted by us to issue the reserved but unissued Market Leader shares under the 2004 Plan and the shares that would otherwise be returned to the 2004 Plan due to (i) awards that lapse, expire, terminate or are canceled prior to the issuance of shares thereunder or (ii) shares of Market Leader common stock that are issued under the 2004 Plan and thereafter are forfeited to or otherwise reacquired by Market Leader. As of the date we assumed the 2004 Plan, a total of 283,522 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance. The shares available were increased on January 1, 2014 by 202,770 shares under the automatic annual increase provisions of this plan. We did not assume Market Leader’s 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”), however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement we have assumed all outstanding shares of restricted stock, all outstanding stock appreciation rights and all outstanding options issued under 1999 Plan. These equity awards will continue to be outstanding and will be governed by the provisions of the 1999 Plan. Total shares of common stock available for grant under our 2012 Plan and 2004 Plan were 2,059,599 and 2,127,279 as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. 100 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Stock Option Activity Stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2013 under the 2005 Plan, 2012 Plan, 1999 Plan and 2004 Plan (for the period from August 21, 2013 through December 31, 2013) was as follows: The options exercisable as of December 31, 2013 included options that were exercisable prior to vesting. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was $15.24, $6.77, and $2.28, respectively. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock and the exercise price of outstanding, in-the-money options. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was $45.9 million, $5.3 million, and $902,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The total estimated grant date fair value of employee options vested during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $6.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013 total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted to employees was $16.0 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $1.5 million. These costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average vesting period of 2.38 years. Restricted Stock Units Activity Restricted stock units activity for the year ended December 31, 2013 under the 2005 Plan, 2012 Plan, 1999 Plan and 2004 Plan (for the period from August 21, 2013 through December 31, 2013) was as follows: 101 Stock Options Outstanding Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (In thousands) Balance—December 31, 2012 3,570,566 $ 6.45 7.56 $ 35,415 Assumed in acquisition 643,237 15.27 Granted 652,711 32.27 Canceled (293,814 ) 13.41 Exercised (1,484,251 ) 4.74 Balance—December 31, 2013 3,088,449 $ 13.90 7.42 $ 68,131 Options exercisable—December 31, 2013 1,497,372 $ 9.23 6.30 $ 39,927 Options vested and expected to vest—December 31, 2013 3,007,257 $ 10.79 7.38 $ 67,010 RSUs Outstanding Weighted Average Grant Date fair Value Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Unvested—December 31, 2012 37,760 $ 16.41 2.16 $ 613 Assumed in acquisition 124,832 42.90 Granted 1,748,081 34.67 Canceled (98,920 ) 28.97 Released (151,164 ) 33.94 Unvested—December 31, 2013 1,660,589 $ 35.28 1.94 $ 58,569 Restricted stock units expected to vest—December 31, 2013 1,509,246 $ 35.15 2.23 $ 53,231 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements As of December 31, 2013, total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested RSUs granted to employees was $46.5 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $3.4 million, respectively. This cost will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average vesting period of 3.02 years. In the year ended December 31, 2013 we granted 2,105,000 stock unit awards in connection to the Market Leader acquisition, of which 1,576,250 were performance based awards and 528,750 were time based awards. The performance based awards were contingent upon closing of the acquisition of Market Leader referred to in Note 1 above, achievement of certain performance metrics, including comparative market-based returns, and the employees continued service relationship with us. The time based awards were contingent upon closing of the acquisition of Market Leader referred to in Note 1 above and the employees continued service relationship with us. On August 20, 2013 the first contingency was resolved when we closed the acquisition of Market Leader. Hence, the time-based awards are classified as restricted stock units and are included in the RSU table above. The performance-based awards are summarized in the table below. We estimated the fair value of the performance based awards with market-based conditions using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Total compensation cost recorded related to performance-based awards in the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4.4 million. As of December 31, 2013, total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested PSUs granted to employees was $27.2 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $4.1 million, respectively. This cost will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average vesting period of 3 years. 102 PSUs Outstanding Weighted Average Grant Date fair Value Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Unvested—December 31, 2012 — $ — — $ — Granted 1,576,250 22.84 Canceled — Released — Unvested—December 31, 2013 1,576,250 $ 22.84 3.0 $ 55,594 Restricted stock units expected to vest—December 31, 2013 1,408,793 $ 22.45 3.0 $ 49,688 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Stock Appreciation Rights Activity We measure the fair value of stock appreciation rights similar to stock options. Additionally, we classify stock appreciation rights that can be settled in cash as a liability and remeasure it at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Any changes in fair value as a result of this remeasurement are recorded as cumulative compensation cost. Compensation expense related to stock appreciation rights is recognized over the vesting period using the straight-line method reduced for estimated forfeitures. We recognized $618,000 and $0 of expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to these stock appreciation rights. Stock appreciation rights activity is summarized in the following table: No stock appreciation rights were granted in the year ended December 31, 2013. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock appreciation rights exercised during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $908,000. The total estimated grant date fair value of employee stock appreciation rights vested during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $28.89. As of December 31, 2013 total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted to employees was $2.7 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $713,000. These costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average vesting period of 1.97 years. Determining Fair Value of Stock Based Awards The fair value of each grant of stock option and stock appreciation right awards is determined by us using the methods and assumptions discussed below. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment to determine. Valuation Method —We estimate the fair value of our stock option and stock appreciation right awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected Term —The expected term represents the period that the stock option awards are expected to be outstanding. We estimate the expected term for our awards grants based on a study of publicly traded industry peer companies and the historical data on our employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior taking into account the contractual life of the award. Expected Volatility —The expected volatility is derived from the historical stock volatilities of several comparable publicly listed peers over a period approximately equal to the expected term of the awards because we have limited information on the volatility of our common stock since we do not have significant trading history. When making the selections of the comparable industry peers to be used in the volatility calculation, we considered the size, operational and economic similarities to [our] principle business operations. 103 Stock Appreciation Rights Outstanding Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (In thousands) Balance—December 31, 2012 — $ — — $ — Assumed in acquisition 159,713 31.93 3.30 5,684 Granted — — Canceled — — Exercised (32,169 ) 9.90 Balance—December 31, 2013 127,544 $ 11.83 3.08 $ 2.990 Exercisable—December 31, 2013 26,788 $ 11.01 3.01 $ 2,990 Vested and expected to vest—December 31, 2013 117,419 $ 11.76 3.08 $ 2,760 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Fair Value of Common Stock —Prior to our IPO, the fair value of the common stock underlying the stock option awards was determined by our board of directors. Because there had been no public market for our stock, the board of directors had determined the fair value of the common stock at the time of the option grant by considering a number of objective and subjective factors including contemporaneous valuations performed by unrelated third party specialists, valuations of comparable companies, operating and financial performance, lack of liquidity of capital stock and general and industry-specific economic outlook, amongst other factors. After our IPO we have been using the listed stock price on the date of grant as its fair value. Risk-Free Interest Rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal to the expected term of the options. Expected Dividends —The expected dividend has been zero as we have never paid dividends and have no expectations to do so. Forfeiture Rate —We estimate our forfeiture rates based on an analysis of our actual forfeitures and will continue to evaluate the adequacy of the forfeiture rate based on actual forfeiture experience, analysis of employee turnover behavior, and other factors. The impact from a forfeiture rate adjustment will be recognized in full in the period of adjustment, and if the actual number of future forfeitures differs from that estimated, we may be required to record adjustments to stock-based compensation expense in future periods. Summary of Assumptions The fair value of each employee stock option awards was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: The fair value of restricted stock units equals the market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The fair value of performance based awards with market based condition was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model with the following weighted average assumptions: The value of each employee stock appreciation right granted was estimated at the end of the reporting period using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: 104 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Expected term (in years) 5.5 5.5 5.5 Expected volatility 52 % 53 % 55 % Risk-free interest rate 1.2 % 0.9 % 1.9 % Dividend rate 0 % 0 % 0 % As of May 29, 2013 As of August 29, 2013 Stock price $ 30.31 $ 41.67 Simulation period 2.93 years 2.68 years Risk free rate 0.47 % 0.65 % Volatility 52.6 % 52.6 % Dividend yield 0 % 0 % Cost of equity 12.6 % 12.3 % Year Ended December 31, 2013 Estimated term (in years) 1.63 Risk-free interest rate 0.32 % Expected volatility 36 % Expected dividend yield 0 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Our stock appreciation rights typically vest on a graded basis over either a two or four year period and typically expire the earlier of five years from the date of grant or ninety days following termination of employment. Options granted to non-employees During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 we granted zero, zero, and 16,216 stock options to non-employees. Through June 30, 2012, no stock-based compensation expense was recognized related to the options granted during the year ended December 31, 2011 as these non-employee options have performance conditions that we determined are not probable as of June 30, 2012. Such options were subject to remeasurement using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as the options vested. In the second half of the year ended December 31, 2012, a total of $58,000 of stock-based compensation expense was recognized related to these options. No expense was recognized in the year ended December 31, 2013. Compensation Paid in Stock We recorded compensation expense for the stock-based awards granted to employees and other compensation paid in stock as follows (in thousands): We capitalized stock-based compensation of $685,000, $66,000, and $22,000 as product development costs during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. 11. Warrants Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants In September 2011, we entered into a $20.0 million Credit Facility discussed further in Note 7. In connection with the Credit Facility, we issued a warrant to purchase up to 120,961 shares of Series D with an exercise price of $8.4738 per share. As of December 31, 2011, only 56,054 shares were exercisable. The exercisability of the warrant would be triggered upon specified drawdowns under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had drawdowns of $10.0 million from the total $20.0 million underlying the Credit Facility. If we withdrew the remaining $10.0 million, the remaining 64,907 shares would become exercisable under the warrant. As of December 31, 2012, our ability to withdraw the remaining $10.0 million expired. At the time of issuance, the aggregate fair value of the warrant in the amount of $281,000 was determined using a Monte Carlo model incorporating two scenarios, one with a future equity financing and one without. The model also used the following assumptions: expected term of 1.2 years, risk-free interest rate of 0.2%, expected volatility of 55.0% and expected dividend yield of 0%. The fair value of the warrant was 105 Years Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Stock-based compensation: Cost of revenue $ 644 $ 32 $ 11 Technology and development 5,659 930 482 Sales and marketing 4,880 398 183 General and administrative 9,266 1,210 808 Total stock-based compensation expense 20,449 2,570 1,484 Other compensation paid in stock: Cost of revenue 74 — — Technology and development 706 — — Sales and marketing 783 — — General and administrative 961 — — Total compensation paid in stock $ 22,973 $ 2,570 $ 1,484 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements recorded as a warrant liability upon issuance. As a result of our first public filing of its Form S-1 in August 2012 and in connection with the termination of the anti-dilution provisions contained in the warrant, the warrant liability was remeasured to fair value and the remaining value reclassified to additional paid-in-capital. Upon completion of our IPO in September 2012 and the related conversion of the convertible preferred stock to common stock, this warrant to purchase convertible preferred stock became a warrant to purchase common stock and the expiration date was set at September 19, 2017, which was five years from the effectiveness of our IPO. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized a charge to earnings of $369,000 and $16,000, respectively, from remeasurement of the fair value of the warrant, which was recorded through the statements of operations. We determined the fair value of the outstanding convertible preferred stock warrant as of August 17, 2012, the date the anti-dilution provision was no longer applicable, and December 31, 2011 with the following assumptions: The above assumptions were determined as follows: Term —The term represents a weighted average of the remaining term under probable scenarios used to determine the fair value of the underlying stock. A weighted average term was determined to be more appropriate than the contractual term due to potential adjustments to the related expiration date for the warrant under multiple scenarios; Risk-free interest rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal the term of the warrant; Expected volatility —The expected volatility is derived from historical volatilities of several unrelated publicly listed peer companies over a period approximately equal to the term of the warrant because we have limited information on the volatility of the preferred stock since we do not have significant trading history. When making the selections of industry peer companies to be used in the volatility calculation, we considered the size, operational and economic similarities to our principle business operations; and Expected dividend yield —The expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero as we have never paid dividends and have no current plans to do so. Common Stock Warrants In September 2011, in conjunction with services provided by a third party consultant, we issued a warrant to purchase 44,646 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $4.29 per share and expiration date of February 14, 2016. The fair value of the warrant in the amount of $93,000 was recorded as additional paid-in capital upon issuance and was not subject to remeasurement at each reporting period. The fair value of the warrant was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: contractual term of 4.5 years, risk-free interest rate of 0.7%, expected volatility of 55.0% and expected dividend yield of 0%. In connection with the IPO in September 2012, the warrant was exercised using the cashless exercise provision which amounted to the net issuance of 33,380 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2012, this warrant was no longer outstanding. 106 As of August 17, 2012 As of December 31, 2011 Estimated term (in years) 5.9 1.0 Risk-free interest rate 1.0 % 0.1 % Expected volatility 53 % 55 % Expected dividend yield 0 % 0 % Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements 12. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders The following table sets for the computation of our basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 (in thousands, except share and per share data): The following outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive: 13. Self-Insurance We are self-insured for a portion of our employees’ medical and dental coverage. The medical plan carries a stop-loss policy, which will protect from an individual claim during the plan year exceeding $100,000 or when cumulative medical claims exceed 125% of expected claims for the plan year. We record estimates of the total cost of claims incurred as of the balance sheet date based on an analysis of historical data and independent estimates. Our liability for self-insured medical and dental claims is included in accrued compensation and benefits and was $225,000 and $0 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 14. Income Taxes We account for income taxes in accordance with authoritative guidance, which requires the use of the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be reversed. As a result of the acquisition of Market Leader in August 2013, we recorded a tax benefit of $7.9 million as a discrete item in the third quarter. This tax benefit is a result of the partial release of our existing valuation allowance in conjunction with the acquisition since the acquired deferred tax liabilities from Market Leader will provide a source of income for us to realize a portion of its deferred tax assets, for which a valuation allowance is no longer needed. 107 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (17,759 ) $ (10,921 ) $ (6,155 ) Shares used in computing net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted 33,129,572 12,538,769 6,657,045 Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted $ (0.54 ) $ (0.87 ) $ (0.92 ) Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Convertible preferred stock — — 14,161,444 Stock options to purchase common stock 3,088,449 3,570,566 3,334,530 Restricted stock units 3,236,839 37,760 — Stock appreciation rights 127,544 — — Heldback shares in connection with Movity acquisition 30,524 30,524 125,461 Preferred stock warrants — — 56,054 Common stock warrants — 56,054 44,646 Convertible senior notes 6,400,969 — — Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements The components of the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows (in thousands): A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to the actual tax rate for the years ended December 31 is as follows (in thousands): Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes, and the amount used for income tax purposes. Our deferred tax assets and liabilities are detailed below (in thousands): 108 Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 Current: Federal $ — $ — State 412 67 Deferred: Federal (5,123 ) — State (2,800 ) — TOTAL $ (7,511 ) $ 67 As of December 31, 2013 2012 Tax at federal statutory rate $ (8,592 ) $ (3,684 ) Permanent items 128 499 State taxes (499 ) (609 ) Net operating loss not benefitted 8,004 3,527 Acquisition related costs 1,072 — Valuation allowance release (7,923 ) — Stock-based compensation 299 334 Income tax expense $ (7,511 ) 67 As of December 31, 2013 2012 Assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 40,828 $ 16,275 Tax credit carryforwards 5,210 — Accruals and reserves 5,082 867 Stock-based compensation 9,034 633 Fixed assets and intangibles — 36 Other 27 1 Gross deferred tax assets 60,181 17,812 Valuation allowance (20,995 ) (17,342 ) Total deferred tax assets 39,186 470 Liabilities: Deferred Revenue $ (58 ) $ (117 ) Prepaid expenses and other (1,085 ) (353 ) Fixed assets and intangibles (38,043 ) — Total deferred tax liabilities (39,186 ) 470 Net deferred tax assets $ — $ — Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements During the year ended December 31, 2013, we completed an analysis of certain research expenditures attributable to the legacy Trulia business to determine whether, and to what extent, federal and state research credits could be claimed and carried forward from inception through 2013. As a result of that analysis, we claimed research and development credits of approximately $2.5 million and $2.2 million, for federal and state purposes, respectively. These credits have been presented as an increase to deferred tax assets in the table above for the year ended December 31, 2013 but have also resulted in a corresponding increase to our valuation allowance. The claim therefore had no net impact to income tax expense. In addition, we had approximately $1.1 million of state enterprise zone credits carryforwards. The federal credits will begin to expire in 2025 and the state credits can be carried forward indefinitely. We have evaluated the available positive and negative evidence surrounding our ability to realize our deferred tax assets. In our evaluation, we determined that our recent and cumulative history of pre-tax book losses, as well as our expectation of pre-tax losses in the near future, presents overwhelming negative evidence of our ability to realize our deferred tax assets in excess of our deferred tax liabilities. Accordingly, we have established a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets . Our valuation allowance was approximately $17.3 million at December 31, 2012 and was increased by approximately $3.7 million to approximately $21.0 million at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, we had approximately $147.8 million of federal net operating loss and $85.9 million of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income, which will begin to expire in 2025 and 2015, respectively. Included in the above net operating loss carryforwards are $35.9 million and $25.1 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, respectively, associated with a windfall tax benefit that will be recorded as additional paid in capital when realized. Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are subject to annual use limitations due to certain ownership change rules provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar state provisions. However, we do not anticipate these limitations will significantly impact our ability to utilize our net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. A reconciliation of our unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest and penalties, for 2013 and 2012 is as follows (in thousands): We recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2013 there were no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. We do not have any tax positions that are expected to significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. Our tax years for 2010 and forward are subject to examination by the U.S. tax authorities, our tax years for 2009 and forward are subject to examination by various state tax authorities. However, due to the fact we had net operating losses and credits carried forward in most jurisdictions, certain items attributable to technically closed years are still subject to 109 As of December 31, 2013 2012 Balance at the beginning of the year $ 20 $ 475 Decreases related to prior year tax positions — (475 ) Expiration of statute of limitations — — Current year increases 2,316 20 Balance at the end of the year 2,336 20 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements adjustment by the relevant taxing authority through an adjustment to tax attributes carried forward to open years. In addition, to the extent we are deemed to have a sufficient connection to a particular taxing jurisdiction to enable that jurisdiction to tax us but we have not filed an income tax return in that jurisdiction for the year(s) at issue, the jurisdiction would typically be able to assert a tax liability for such years without limitation on the number of years it may examine. 15. Employee Benefit Plan We have a defined contribution 401(k) retirement plan covering Trulia employees who have met certain eligibility requirements (the Trulia 401(k) Plan). Eligible employees may contribute pretax compensation up to the maximum amount allowable under Internal Revenue Service limitations. Employee contributions and earnings thereon vest immediately. Effective with the Market Leader acquisition, we assumed the Market Leader defined contribution 401(k) plan separately covering our Market Leader employees (the Market Leader 401(k) Plan). Eligible employees may contribute pretax compensation up to the maximum amount allowable under Internal Revenue Service limitations. Employee contributions and earnings thereon vest immediately. We currently match up to 4% of employee contributions under the Trulia 401(k) Plan. Our expense related to our benefit plan for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1.1 million and $685,000, respectively. The Market Leader 401(k) Plan allows for discretionary employer contributions, but no such contributions have been made. * * * * * * 110 Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements None. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process 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. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurances. 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. Our management assessed the effectiveness of Trulia’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated 1992 Framework. Based on our assessment using those criteria, our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, Trulia’s internal control over financial reporting was effective. 111 Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure Item 9A. Controls and Procedures (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
