The following tables have been prepared on a standalone basis and are derived from the historical accounting records of Vimeo and IAC. The information below reflects the allocation to Vimeo of certain IAC corporate expenses relating to Vimeo based on the historical accounting records of IAC. Further, income taxes have been computed for Vimeo on an as if standalone, separate tax return basis. Accordingly, certain amounts will not agree to Vimeo's results as included in IAC's historical results due to such adjustments made for standalone presentation.

(a) Q1 2019 and Q2 2019, includes a realized loss of $8.2 million related to the sale of the hardware business, and a $2.0 million realized gain related to the sale of an investment, respectively.
(b) Quarterly per share amounts may not add up to the related annual per share amount due to differences in the average common shares outstanding during each period.
(c) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable. Vimeo believes this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between Vimeo’s performance and that of its competitors. The above items are excluded from Vimeo’s Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.
