(Nasdaq: ICGE) today reported its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003. "Our private Core companies continue to make progress in a challenging market as evidenced by the fact that companies like NBC, DuPont and Gap continue to select and to leverage the solutions our partner companies are providing to increase efficiencies and reduce costs within their organizations," said Walter Buckley, ICG's chairman and CEO. ICG FINANCIAL RESULTS The Company reported a net loss for the quarter of $(26) million, or $(0.09) per share versus a net loss of $(13) million, or $(0.05) per share, for the corresponding 2002 period. The 2003 period was negatively impacted by $7 million in impairment and restructuring charges. The 2002 period was positively impacted by $63 million in gains associated with the repurchase of convertible notes, offset by $34 million in impairment and restructuring charges. ICG reported consolidated GAAP revenue of $24 million for the quarter versus $26 million for the comparable 2002 period. For the six month period ended June 30, 2003, ICG reported a net loss of $(44) million, or $(0.16) per share versus a net loss of $(75) million, or $(0.27) per share for the corresponding 2002 period. ICG reported consolidated GAAP revenue of $49 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 versus $50 million for the corresponding 2002 period. PRIVATE CORE COMPANY RESULTS In an effort to illustrate macro trends within its private Core companies, ICG provides an aggregation of revenue and net loss figures reflecting 100% of the revenue and EBITDA for these companies. ICG does not own its Core companies in their entirety and, therefore, this information should be considered in this context. Total revenue and EBITDA, in this context, represents certain of the financial measures used by the Company's management to evaluate the performance for Core companies. EBITDA consists of earnings/(losses) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation, other non-cash and non-recurring items have also been excluded. The Company's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others so each group can evaluate private Core companies' current and future prospects in the same manner as the Company's management. A reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure is included as an attachment to this release. -more- ICG Announces Second Quarter 2003 Results "This quarter, the private Core group reported revenue growth and EBITDA improvement, illustrating progress against our primary corporate goal of driving growth and profitability at our Core companies," added Buckley. Total revenue for ICG's private Core companies was $92 million for the quarter, or a 6% increase over total revenue of $87 million during the first quarter of 2003, and a 7% increase over the second quarter of 2002 revenue of $86 million. For the quarter, ICG's private Core companies also reported a total $(14) million net loss as compared with a $(18) million net loss in the first quarter of 2003 and a $(36) million net loss in the second quarter of 2002. ICG's private Core companies also reported a total $(3) million EBITDA loss for the quarter, excluding non-cash and non-recurring items, as compared with $(8) million EBITDA loss in the first quarter of 2003 and a $(16) million EBITDA loss in the second quarter of 2002. Since last quarter, ICG's average primary ownership in its private Core companies decreased from 48% to 44%, due primarily to funding of eCredit.com by new investors. CAPITAL ALLOCATION As of June 30, 2003, cash on an ICG corporate basis totaled $65 million. The $19 million decrease from March 31, 2003 is comprised primarily of $10 million in fundings to existing partner companies, $7.5 million in interest and other net costs. As of August 6, 2003 ICG's cash totaled $60 million on a corporate basis. ICG will host a webcast at 10:00am ET today to discuss results.

In addition, these figures are preliminary in nature, are subject to change and may differ from previously reported figures as a result of, among other things, changes in the composition of the private core group of companies, changes to reported figures by each partner company for any necessary corrections, changes resulting from differing interpretations of accounting principles upon review by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or changes in accounting literature. (2) EBITDA consists of earnings/(losses) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization; stock based compensation, other non-cash, and non-recurring items have also been excluded. EBITDA is a commonly used metric and presented here to enhance understanding of our partner company operating results. EBITDA does not measure financial performance under GAAP and other companies may present similarly titled measures that are calculated differently. EBITDA is not an alternative to operating or net income/(loss), as determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of performance, nor is it an alternative to cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of liquidity. (3) Includes our share of our consolidated and equity method companies' impairment and restructuring charges totaling approximately $17 million. INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC. JUNE 30, 2003 DESCRIPTION OF TERMS FOR CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS EFFECT OF VARIOUS ACCOUNTING METHODS ON OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The various interests that the Company acquires in its partner companies are accounted for under three methods: consolidation, equity method and cost method. The effect of a partner company's net results of operations on the Company's net results of operations is generally the same under either the consolidation method of accounting or the equity method of accounting, because under each of these methods only our share of the earnings or losses of a partner company is reflected in its net results of operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The applicable accounting method is generally determined based on the Company's voting interest in a partner company. CONSOLIDATION. Partner companies in which the Company directly or indirectly possesses voting control or those where the Company has effective control are generally accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. Under this method, a partner company's accounts (revenue, cost of revenue, selling, general and administrative, research and development, impairment related and other, amortization of intangibles, other income (loss) and interest income/expense) are reflected within the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Participation of other partner company stockholders in the earnings or losses of a consolidated partner company is reflected in the caption "Minority interest" in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Minority interest adjusts the Company's consolidated net results of operations to reflect only its share of the earnings or losses of the consolidated partner company. As of June 30, 2003, the Company accounted for 3 of its partner companies under this method. EQUITY METHOD. Partner companies whose results the Company does not consolidate, but over whom it exercises significant influence, are generally accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Whether or not the Company exercises significant influence with respect to a partner company depends on an evaluation of several factors including, among others, representation on the partner company's board of directors and ownership level, which is generally a 20% to 50% interest in the voting securities of the partner company, including voting rights associated with the Company's holdings in common, preferred and other convertible instruments in the partner company. Under the equity method of accounting, a partner company's accounts are not reflected within the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations; however, its share of the earnings or losses of the partner company is reflected in the caption "Equity Loss" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2003, the Company accounted for 17 of its partner companies under this method. COST METHOD. Partner companies not accounted for under either the consolidation or the equity method of accounting are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Under this method, the Company's share of the earnings or losses of these companies is not included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2003, the Company accounted for 13 of its partner companies under this method. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS ICG'S SHARE OF NET LOSS OF CORE, EMERGING AND DISPOSED PARTNER COMPANIES Represents ICG's share of the net loss of Core, Emerging and disposed Partner Companies accounted for under the consolidated and equity method of accounting. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS During the three months ended December 31, 2002, two of the Company's consolidated Partner Companies, Delphion and Logistics, disposed of substantially all of their assets. Accordingly, the operating results of these two discontinued operations have been presented separately from continuing operations. CORPORATE EXPENSES, OTHER INCOME (LOSS) AND IMPAIRMENTS General and administrative expenses consist of payroll and related expenses for executive, operational, acquisitions, finance and administrative personnel, professional fees and other general corporate expenses for Internet Capital Group. Stock-based compensation is included and primarily consists of non-cash charges related to certain compensation arrangements. This caption also includes cash and non-cash severance and other charges related to the restructuring of Internet Capital Group's operations to better align our general and administrative expenses with the reduction in the number of Partner Companies. Other income (loss), net for the three months ended June 30, 2003 consists primarily of Partner Company losses and impairments of $3.5 million offset by gains on Partner Company dispositions of $1.0 million and gains on marketable securities of $0.3 million. Other income (loss), net for the three months ended June 30, 2002 consists primarily of a gain on debt extinguishment of $63.2 million and gain on a Partner Company distribution of $4.5 million offset by $9.9 million of Partner Company impairments.
