Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained in this presentation that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that
involve certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, risks associated with the effect of economic
conditions generally, capital spending by our customers, our ability to retain existing customer relationships and
secure new ones, our ability to compete successfully against alternative solutions, our ability to timely and
effectively respond to technological developments, our ability to retain key personnel, our ability to have continued
access to capital and to deploy capital effectively and on acceptable terms, our ability to maximize value in
connection with divestitures, and other risks and uncertainties detailed in Actua’s filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Those and other factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures and have no
standardized measurement prescribed by GAAP. When referring to non-GAAP financial measures, the term “adjusted” is used
interchangeably with the term “non-GAAP” by Actua’s management and the two have identical definitions. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is
GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Actua, including acquired businesses’ deferred revenue and excluding share-based compensation,
amortization of intangibles, impairment-related and other costs, transaction expenses, other (income) loss, net, equity loss current non-
cash income tax benefit on discrete item and loss (income) from discontinued operations. Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share is
non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by (1) GAAP shares, including the any impact of incremental dilutive securities (in the case of income)
or (2) GAAP shares, excluding any impact of incremental dilutive securities (in the case of loss). Actua's consolidated businesses are
BOLT, FolioDynamix, GovDelivery and MSDSonline as of March 31, 2015. Please note the following:
• FolioDynamix became a consolidated business on November 3, 2014 and, therefore, will be included in Actua’s consolidated results
beginning on November 1, 2014. The results of FolioDynamix for the first two days of November 2014 were insignificant for
consolidation purposes.
• Channel Intelligence, Investor Force and Procurian were sold in Q1, Q1 and Q4 2013, respectively, and are presented as
discontinued operations under GAAP. Receipt of respective escrow releases occurred throughout 2014 and is presented within our
non-GAAP measures as “Loss (income) from discontinued operations.”
Actua's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and potential investors that
enables them to view Actua’s business in a similar manner as Actua's management and provide meaningful supplemental information
regarding Actua’s operating results as they exclude amounts that Actua excludes as part of its monitoring of operating results and
assessment of the performance of its business.
