Exhibit 99.1
Sohu.com Inc.
The accompanying (unaudited) pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements present the historical financial information of Sohu.com Inc (“Sohu”), as adjusted for the disposition of Shenzhen 7Road Technology Co., Ltd.(“7Road”), Changyou My Sdn. Bhd (“Changyou Malaysia”) and Changyou.com (UK) Company Limited (“Changyou UK”) (collectively, the “Disposition”). The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet presents the historical financial information of Sohu as of June 30, 2015, as adjusted assuming the Disposition took place on June 30, 2015. The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the six months ended June 30, 2015, present the historical financial information of Sohu as adjusted to reflect the exclusion of the operations of 7Road, Changyou Malaysia and Changyou UK for the applicable period as if the Disposition had occurred on January 1, 2014. The Disposition is not considered as a discontinued operation on the historical financial statements of Sohu.
The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 and the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 of Sohu set forth below have been derived from the historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Sohu included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 of Sohu set forth below has been derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Sohu included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
These pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management, based on historical financial information of Sohu, 7Road, Changyou Malaysia and Changyou UK. These pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the Disposition had taken place on the dates indicated. The pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Sohu for the year ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A - Basis of presentation
The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented to reflect the disposition of 7Road, Changyou.com (UK) and Changyou My Sdn. Bhd by Sohu.com Inc (the “Disposition”). The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared to give effect to the Disposition as if the Disposition had occurred on June 30, 2015. The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations include the historical operations of Sohu.com Inc and exclude the operations of 7Road, Changyou.com (UK) and Changyou My Sdn. Bhd as if the Disposition had occurred on January 1, 2014.
Note B - Pro forma adjustments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet represent adjustments as if the Disposition had taken place on June 30, 2015, and the pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015 represent adjustments as if the Disposition had taken place on January 1, 2014.
(1) These adjustments reflect the effects of the Disposition as if the Disposition had occurred on June 30, 2015, and include:
i) recording of cash proceeds received at closing (US$84.0 million); receivables due from the buyers (US$58.4 million); and elimination of other short-term liabilities (US$62.6 million) established for advanced payment received from the buyers prior to June 30, 2015;.
ii) disposal of assets and liabilities held for sale as of June 30, 2015 as a result of the Disposition. Details of the aggregate assets and liabilities at June 30, 2015 are included in Table 1 below; and
iii) recording of gain from the Disposition of US$56.2 million and estimated tax expense of US$15.0 million, which is calculated by applying the applicable tax rate to the gain, which is the difference between the net consideration received from the buyers and Sohu’s tax basis in the equity interests sold in the Disposition.

(2) This adjustment reflects the reclassification of accounts receivable from game players of US$18.4 million that were not sold to the buyers. Pursuant to the agreements with the buyers, these accounts receivable will be collected by 7Road and distributed to Changyou after the completion of the Disposition. Accordingly, these accounts receivable are reclassified as other receivables from 7Road as if the Disposition had occurred on June 30, 2015.
(3) This adjustment reflects the elimination of the effects of the operations of 7Road, Changyou Malaysia and Changyou UK.
(4) This adjustment reflects the adding back of costs in connection with a revenue-sharing arrangement between Changyou and 7Road. Under an existing arrangement, Changyou has offered Internet value-added services with respect to the operation of web games and mobile games developed by 7Road. After Changyou collected proceeds from game players, it would remit a pre-agreed percentage of proceeds to 7Road as a revenue-sharing payment. The arrangement was in effect during the year ended December 31, 2014 and the six months ended June 30, 2015. Changyou’s related Internet value-added service revenues from game players were US$5.6 million and US$0.34 million, respectively, and Changyou made revenue-sharing payments to 7Road of US$4.7 million and US$0.34 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the six months ended June 30, 2015. The arrangement was terminated in July 2015.
As 7Road was a consolidated variable interest entity of Changyou, the revenue-sharing payment paid by Changyou to 7Road and the corresponding revenue recorded by 7Road in their respective financial statements were eliminated upon preparation of the consolidated financial statements of Sohu. Treating the Disposition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2014, for purposes of these pro forma statements of operations, 7Road is treated as a third-party vendor to Changyou rather than a consolidated variable interest entity of Changyou and Sohu, and the revenue-sharing arrangements are treated as transactions between two independent third parties. Changyou’s revenue-sharing payments to 7Road were correspondingly adjusted back as costs of revenue of Changyou.
(5) A low effective tax rate was in effect primarily as a result of a preferential tax rate enjoyed by 7Road.
