SEO, for other become not as Homeservices, SEM Google a overall become expensive but verticals reliable So, for reliable more -- well. has seems travel really just less less

how Just balance you longer away Google? from moving about term, the do think

buying Would properties more in or term partnerships expensive just could after the spending? some finish that traffic letter. platform brand mentioned potentially conversion. the longer drive You maybe consider So you you

company in will stakes M&A? of we then one-off? minority you verticals pursue the And what as minority you a Or is will And the once in events? IAC, consider total investment should recapitalized future think the as

Joseph Levin

With any want reliant we about to thinking obviously long-term overly don't diversification; source. be in address or regard do Google one we to

months, XX so we’re individual a in request doing phenomenal customer consumers, job million than $XX for in acquisition. last project brought the Over more we

well diversified, are We better. we but can always do

with are two announced partnerships brands We those large audiences Nextdoor, we of to both very about obvious have us. relevance excited and great the that

avenues a good And so acquire to acquire we’re but customers don't continues expect place going on keep be that customers, to to and finding pressing Google we change. to new to

use. repeat I'll that lot ecosystem here it solution or to into drives that a long-term is customers, them a The solution acquire the and medium-term stickier call lot much a stronger more product get is even

do We is in to the have we year that a ton of pipeline just that. for the innovation believe coming going

data achieving that customer and also Obviously, loyalty. our lot we price fixed but is use and app this of a materially repeat early mobile where we be business we're going we more driving think from to see already our higher experience know the

getting about extraordinarily our else not base. away answer it's mobile And our focus it's and Google, acquiring and drive, of We've homeowner app about is everywhere where from them. that's got strong penetration is. the an our and in to strategy aggressive Google customers into And accelerated really keeping that's

Brandon Ridenour

answer your bit and Jason. add And I'll little I’ll then a of that other question

to make that The before. talked think get in your key And big more more something go compelling in forward we've leaps is all go direct. to consumers us of takes think, experience talked for experience directly I easier, that to done. efficient businesses this our to everything these about about I Brandon to making

that the on I of we're channels could and that we're think to making think we less actually I go platforms be for the us. their some through a it compelling doing provide things benefit that long-term that

actively In looking of we're new I at. very verticals, something something actively it's very candidly at looked we've think terms always --

we're it finer of post-match a and highly with there's think capitalized I cash. world point where in on imagining

think will is that are for. that new because with say consumer meaning as change and obvious add addressable - certain where we existing that finding verticals of things value doesn’t can know But behavior and discipline and think the and where where markets of a larger future things we things the the those leaders we there's at direction there's we looking evolve evidence we we're

the best I going as verticals prioritize to think advantage. we existing where have capital because we're our that's on always,

we've be think nice relatively done look things value to add able to M&A there. for relatively Dotdash We seem continue to with I opportunities so far. We're quickly success and there. at going quickly little integrate to

to of the a at near-term, be that's a but did little going don't and take terms acquisition will relatively Magisto an M&A to I just in for one affected. bit Vimeo We with in verticals Vimeo so small expect big and digest. and pricey, so much new

In our terms that's minority of investments, not pattern.

we did great that feel great a we put when quarter investment. have we about we progress Turo last the the the Turo We the place get return. We that feel and areas capital where but investment. are that prioritizing said things to can control that's we We think about in can that in best business,

with Our next Barclays. Ross Sandler from comes question

Ross Sandler

that that A the see today. guys. - stub XXXX IAC spin all letter, we many details, you created core IAC noted value in the this so prior that question time in for laid core quarterly the see three-fourth value of out have the stub Hey, letters. that you And can nearly you core on negative the you

help if is and market hidden playbook, what's guess, same this some value? I guys the what do So post-spin will you missing unlock the to that of

amount idea the the ideal laid the spin question for of IAC you the addendum. cash as perfect debt I do And you in guess is then a post-spin? and out framework of second view new what world for for Match amount in the the

Joseph Levin

but What that we answer it’s Ross, one. given where a comfortable can imagine are last is to there, valid appropriate I'm I the think Yes. not is don't cash and range now, discussion. to you it's that question. going pretty in right we said wide a answer the

to I'm relative XXXX, -- about it's of more mean, a really being in In now terms it I confident I than XXXX is remember it. interesting. thinking

those revenue that I in had a We the each think four would - of way yet. ANGI Mosaic now have I businesses are that. we excluding Vimeo, three I'm - and comfortably businesses Dotdash, quarter right are ANGI well one growing doing from say or When by $XX two north we that and about million nicely.

at macro individual issues the market two I momentum at and was I you businesses that each scale favor. momentum not When but There was the businesses XXXX, favor. look some general wasn't our think in in had at our those going time we businesses that, really significantly on of like the the really behind also level momentum in

little I’m now Dotdash some then and bet too. talking ANGI had got obviously Vimeo, bet about and some we've Mosaic little we've

with I that probably bit to. little Vimeo a really attention no it's think paying was and one

of There of other was bunch a Many failed. ones. those

right and there. markets of we've Many You and them got failed. feel right bunch confident pretty really got momentum nice large I so But really a now now.

or that meaning Some understanding people same things factors on to the different of negative the of at once. are of wanting different the -- general bet concepts the a number not at in of businesses businesses or the time not stub kind of value lot drive a

I whatever, to as businesses we is the conclusions need of we on tools or that clear it's those for the those of metrics there it can set to the that make the past we currency decade able prospects possible so bond that then own, but over be people businesses when is time are be that of next decades businesses our value of or own can the that that persists see we public goal as we've and few use. think that can tools for unlocking a what deployed is the and the and

We to over and will do disposal at sheets tools value. We can are those time can and done. use different currencies use subsidiary continue different balance all things our equity use deals to that get be are unlock and

a a letter about fail over come It's and think that share half of tool repurchases the course over period. one the down And course all was has talked that that. if very of there's the big of something come we I almost that we also And share is in in which decade. like last a down in big count

exactly us. not be but of I and themselves they attention. slim sure so for to opportunity point, too high how our that big this do is an the at this do and need of small will think openly scale the may margin to warrant But it buying I'm

opportunities We have in other bigger places.
