PART I
Although we refer in this Annual Report to the companies in which we have acquired a convertible debt or an equity ownership interest as our partner companies and that we indicate that we have a partnership with these companies, we do not act as an agent or legal representative for any of our partner companies, and we do not have the power or authority to legally bind any of our partner companies, and we do not have the types of liabilities in relation to our partner companies that a general partner of a partnership would have.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. See the subsection of Part II, Item 7 entitled Risk Factors for more information.
ITEM 1. Business
Business Overview
Internet Capital Group, Inc. is an Internet holding company actively engaged in business-to-business, or B2B, e-commerce through a network of partner companies. Our goal is to build companies that can obtain number one or two positions in their respective markets by delivering software and services to help businesses increase efficiency and reduce costs. We believe that our focus on the B2B e-commerce industry allows us to rapidly capitalize on new opportunities and allocate resources appropriately to the greatest opportunities.
The current market environment creates a considerable opportunity for providers of software and services that reduce costs and increase efficiencies by streamlining business processes both within an enterprise and across the value chain to customers, partners and suppliers. An increasing number of large enterprises are focusing on their core competencies to drive differentiation and competitive advantage for their firms. This means that they are looking for ways to outsource non-core, or non-strategic processes that cost time and money, and more importantly distract them from top priorities, such as improving profitability, growing market share and delivering new products or services. Our partner companies deliver software and services to help businesses focus on their core competencies. As of December 31, 2001, our partner company network was comprised of interests in 47 B2B e-commerce companies.
With a focus on those companies with the greatest potential to generate value for ICG stockholders, our operating strategy is to build and develop our partner companies by providing them with both human and financial resources. This support leverages the collective knowledge and best practices both within ICG and across our network of partner companies. We use these collective resources to actively support the business strategies, operations and management teams of our partner companies. Our resources include the experience, industry relationships and specific expertise of our management team, our partner companies management, our board of directors and our advisory board.
Internet Capital Group, Inc. is a successor to a business originally founded in March 1996 as a Delaware limited liability company under the name Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. As a limited liability company, Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. was treated for income tax purposes as a partnership with taxes on the income generated by Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. paid by its members. Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. merged into Internet Capital Group, Inc. on February 2, 1999 with Internet Capital Group, Inc. surviving (the Reorganization). In connection with the Reorganization and as required by its limited liability company agreement to satisfy the members tax liabilities, Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. declared a $10.7 million distribution to its members. Internet Capital Group, Inc. has assumed all liabilities of Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. including the distribution to members of Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. Also as part of the Reorganization, Internet Capital Group, Inc. issued 164,011,098 shares of common stock to the members of Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. The separate existence of Internet Capital Group, L.L.C. ceased in connection with the Reorganization.
Industry Overview
Growth of the Internet
Forrester Research predicts that as the Internet matures it will become an information utility defined as the mechanism that people use to access information and each other from anywhere, and through any device. The qualities of the Internet that are expected to make it a necessity for consumers and businesses are its ubiquity, reliability and affordability. Driven by this necessity and the growing forces of consumer and corporate demand, we believe that business adoption of Internet strategies, combined with government support has lead to its emergence as a commonly available, low-cost utility.
4
We expect that the Internet will continue to pervade consumer and corporate existence and will breed new waves of innovation. We believe that because of increasing usage of the Internet, that the B2B e-commerce market holds great potential.
Growth of B2B E-Commerce
The Internets growth creates considerable market opportunities for companies that provide software and services to help traditional businesses increase efficiency and cost savings by leveraging the Internet and other technologies. Historically, B2B e-commerce has occurred through electronic data interchange over proprietary networks, which are costly and available only to a limited number of participants. The Internet provides an open platform with common communication protocols to build efficient, cost-effective networks that facilitate e-commerce.
Gartner estimates the value of B2B e-commerce will grow from approximately $2 trillion in 2002 to approximately $6 trillion in 2004 (Global B2B Internet Commerce Forecast, August 2001). The actual number however is far less meaningful than what we believe is the underlying reality, which is that B2B e-commerce is a technology innovation that will have a major impact on how business is conducted.
During 2001, the B2B e-commerce market continued a period of development and growth as enterprises of all sizes and across varying industries looked for vehicles to help them:
Increase efficiency and reduce cost;
Focus on core competencies and outsource non-core, non-strategic processes; and
Expand access to new and existing customers and suppliers.
Increase efficiency and reduce cost
Traditional businesses are utilizing the Internet to automate their internal operations, including manufacturing, finance, sales and purchasing functions. The Internet is also used to increase information flow and access throughout the value chain. This increases operational efficiency by reducing the time, costs and resources required to transact business, lowering inventory levels and procurement costs, and improving responsiveness to customers and suppliers. Recently, the challenging economy only served to increase the need for companies to reduce bottom line costs and increase operational efficiencies to support growth.
Focus on core competencies and outsource non-core, non-strategic processes
There are an increasing number of large enterprises that are focusing on their core competencies to drive differentiation and competitive advantage for their firms. This means that they are looking for ways to outsource non-core, non-strategic processes that cost time and money, and more importantly distract them from their top priorities, which are to grow market share, improve profitability and deliver new products or services.
Expand access to new and existing customers and suppliers
Traditional businesses have relied on their sales forces and purchasing departments to develop and maintain customer and supplier relationships. This model is constrained by the time and cost required to exchange current information regarding requirements, prices and product availability, and the difficulty of cost-effectively locating new customers and suppliers and managing existing relationships. Traditional businesses can leverage the Internet to obtain and communicate real-time, accurate information regarding requirements, prices and products to a global audience, including suppliers, customers and business partners. This has the potential to make it easier for businesses to attract new customers and suppliers, improve service and increase revenue.
We believe that the benefits of B2B are broad and will be realized by businesses in times of economic growth or contraction, because e-commerce can be used to build top line revenues in times of growth, and new levels of efficiency in times of contraction.
5
Our Solution and Strategy
Our goal is to become a leader in B2B e-commerce by owning significant stakes in leading B2B companies that deliver the savings and efficiency of the Internet to businesses of all sizes across all industries. We believe that our focus on B2B e-commerce allows us to capitalize and focus on the largest growth and value opportunities in this sector.
We focus on those companies with the greatest potential to generate value for our stockholders. Our operating strategy is to build and develop our partner companies by providing them with both human and financial resources. This support leverages the collective knowledge and best practices both from within and across our network of partner companies. We use these collective resources to actively support the business strategies, operations and management teams of our partner companies. Our resources include the experience, industry relationships and specific expertise of our management team, our partner companies management, our board of directors and our advisory board.
Although our mission of building leading B2B e-commerce companies has remained constant since its inception in 1996, our focus and operational tenets have evolved with the growth of the B2B market and in response to volatility within the capital markets. This evolution includes:
Identifying key markets and owning stakes in potential leaders in B2B e-commerce;
Aggregating companies into a network to share knowledge and promote growth; and
Prioritizing resources to accelerate development of our most promising partner companies.
Identify key markets and own stakes in potential leaders
Our expertise in the B2B e-commerce market has allowed us to identify companies that we believe are positioned to succeed. In building our partner company network, we applied an analysis that capitalized on the competitive advantage that results from this intense market focus. We were very active in acquiring new companies during 1999 and early 2000, bringing the network to an all-time high of 80 companies by late 2000. In evaluating whether to enter a market or acquire a stake in a specific company, we weighed each opportunity in terms of several industry and company factors. With regards to industry criteria, we evaluated the inefficiencies within the market, its competitive landscape, and the potential each market had in terms of the number and dollar value of transactions it would be able to support. In measuring the potential of a specific company, we looked at market position and share, our ability to own a significant stake, the companys potential to contribute to the networks value in terms of operational resources, and the quality of its management team.
After we identified each attractive potential partner company, we negotiated the acquisition of a significant interest in the company. As a condition to an acquisition, we generally required representation on the companys board of directors to ensure our ability to provide active guidance to the partner company. We structured acquisitions to permit the partner companys management and key personnel to retain an equity stake in the company. During our negotiations with potential partner companies we emphasized the value of our network and resources, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage over other acquirers in successfully consummating transactions.
In late 2000 and during 2001, we reallocated our capital resources as described below to focus on those partner companies that we believed presented the greatest potential for our stockholders. Due to this increased focus on certain existing partner companies, we decreased our focus on new acquisitions. Our intent since has been to consider compelling new acquisition opportunities only if we believe they represent significant near-term strategic value.
After acquiring interests in partner companies, we selectively continue to participate in their follow-on financings and selectively increase our ownership positions.
Aggregate companies into network to promote growth
During 1999 and 2000 we acquired interests in numerous partner companies, and as we made those acquisitions, we immediately took an active role in the partner companies by providing both strategic guidance and operational support:
Strategic Guidance. We provide strategic guidance to our partner companies regarding market positioning, business model development and market trends. Our focus on the B2B e-commerce market and the knowledge base of our partner companies, strategic investors, management and advisory board give us valuable experience that we share with our partner company network.
6
Operational Support. We provide operational support to our partner companies in the areas of finance, sales and marketing, business development and human resources. Each partner company has a dedicated ICG operations and finance team. This team advises our partner companies management and directors on day-to-day management and operational issues.
Leveraging of Best Practices and Economies of Scale. One of the principal goals of our network is to promote best practices and economies of scale among our partner companies. We promote and facilitate the information flow among our partner companies and as they follow similar business cycles and challenges, key learnings are leveraged to increase operational efficiencies, accelerate decision-making and promote growth. This includes the negotiation of umbrella vendor contracts in specific areas such as marketing and human resources that can be beneficial to many partner companies. Importantly, the challenging economic environment has had a significant effect on most of our partner companies. The benefits of a network effect have enabled many of these companies to leverage strategies implemented by other companies to cut costs and evolve business models to quickly respond to common challenges.
Prioritize resources to accelerate development of most promising companies
Although we do and will continue to concentrate on providing the operational and strategic support to promote growth and profitability at our partner companies, market evolution and volatility that began in early 2000 necessitated a prioritization of both our human and capital resources toward partner companies expected to generate the greatest returns for our stockholders. Based on our active involvement in the B2B e-commerce market since 1996, we believe that our expertise allows us to identify companies that we believe are positioned to succeed. This enables the prioritization of our resources to accelerate the development of partner companies we believe offer the greatest value for our stockholders over the long-term. We believe this prioritization and focus will result in the streamlining of our partner company network into a smaller but stronger group of companies. We intend to continue to focus on our private and public partner companies that we believe have the greatest value potential, or our Core partner companies. These companies are gaining traction in delivering software and services that we expect will increase efficiency and savings for business. However, this categorization does not necessarily imply that every one of our Core partner companies is a de facto success at this time or will become successful in the future. Rather, it captures those companies that are receiving the vast majority of managements time and resources and that we believe are our most promising. Additionally, we believe that additional partner companies may be included in this category in the future and that, conversely, certain partner companies may be removed from this category in the future.
As of December 31, 2001 the following were included as our Core companies:
Blackboard, BuyMedia, CommerceQuest, CreditTrade, Delphion, eCredit, eMerge Interactive (Nasdaq: EMRG), FreeBorders, GoIndustry, ICG Commerce, Investor Force, iSky, Jamcracker, LinkShare, Logistics.com, OneCoast, Syncra Systems, United Messaging, Universal Access (Nasdaq: UAXS), Verticalnet (Nasdaq: VERT). |
These Core partner companies deliver a wide array of products and services to help their customers streamline and automate business processes with the goal of reducing costs and increasing efficiencies both within the enterprise and extending across their individual value chains. These products and services cover multiple sectors including technology infrastructure, horizontal services and vertical solutions.
Some of our Core partner companies assist their customers in building and managing the technological infrastructure needed to support B2B e-commerce and in designing business practices to take advantage of the Internet. Software providers in this category are establishing supply chain/e-commerce software platforms that allow for better, faster information management and transaction processing between buyers and suppliers.
Software providers may sell or license their products. Outsourced service providers offer software applications, infrastructure and related services designed to help traditional businesses reduce cost, improve operational efficiency and decrease time to market. Outsourced service providers may charge fees on a per-use or periodic basis. Strategic consultants assist traditional businesses in developing their e-commerce strategies. Systems integrators develop and implement a technological infrastructure that enables e-commerce. Systems integrators also integrate e-commerce applications with existing enterprise applications. Strategic consultants and systems integrators typically charge their clients on a project-by-project basis.
7
Another substantial group of partner companies support businesses in their search for ways to automate and streamline non-core processes and enable the online transfer of data and applications. These service providers are enabling the execution of online transactions by offering software platforms, infrastructure and related services for such critical processes as credit, logistics and procurement.
Finally, some of these Core partner companies provide software and services that coordinate, organize and streamline information within specific industry supply chains. These companies are delivering industry specific technology solutions to buyers and suppliers.
Government Regulations and Legal Uncertainties
As of December 31, 2001, there were few laws or regulations directed specifically at e-commerce. However, because of the Internets popularity and increasing use, new laws and regulations may be adopted. These laws and regulations may cover issues such as the collection and use of data from website visitors and related privacy issues, pricing, content, copyrights, on-line gambling, distribution and the quality of goods and services. The enactment of any additional laws or regulations may impede the growth of the Internet and B2B e-commerce, which could decrease the revenue of our partner companies and place additional financial burdens on them.
Laws and regulations directly applicable to e-commerce or Internet communications are becoming more prevalent. For example, Congress recently enacted laws regarding on-line copyright infringement and the protection of information collected on-line from children. Although these laws may not have a direct adverse effect on our business or those of our partner companies, they add to the legal and regulatory burden faced by B2B e-commerce companies. Other specific areas of legislative activity are:
Taxes. Congress has enacted a moratorium, which expires on November 28, 2003, on the application of discriminatory or special taxes by the states on Internet access or on products and services delivered over the Internet. Congress further declared that there would be no federal taxes on e-commerce prior to the end of the moratorium. However, this moratorium does not prevent states from taxing activities or goods and services that the states would otherwise have the power to tax. Furthermore, the moratorium does not apply to certain state taxes that were in place before the moratorium was enacted.
On-line Privacy. Both Congress and the Federal Trade Commission are considering regulating the extent to which companies should be able to use and disclose information they obtain on-line from consumers. If any regulations are enacted, B2B e-commerce companies may find certain marketing activities restricted. The Federal Trade Commission has issued regulations enforcing the Childrens On-line Privacy Protection Act, which took effect on April 21, 2000. These regulations make it illegal to collect information on-line from children under the age of 13 without first obtaining parental consent. These regulations also require website operators to allow parents to inspect and remove their childrens information from any database. Compliance with these regulations could pose a significant administrative burden for website operators whose products and services are targeted to children or may be attractive to children. Also, the European Union has directed its member nations to enact much more stringent privacy protection laws than are generally found in the United States, and has threatened to prohibit the export of certain personal data to United States companies if similar measures are not adopted. Such a prohibition could limit the growth of foreign markets for United States B2B e-commerce companies. The Department of Commerce is negotiating with the European Union to provide exemptions from the European Union regulations, but the outcome of these negotiations is uncertain.
Regulation of Communications Facilities. To some extent, the rapid growth of the Internet in the United States has been due to the relative lack of government intervention in the marketplace for Internet access. Lack of intervention may not continue in the future. For example, several telecommunications carriers are seeking to have telecommunications over the Internet regulated by the Federal Communications Commission in the same manner as other telecommunications services. Additionally, local telephone carriers have petitioned the Federal Communications Commission to regulate Internet service providers in a manner similar to long distance telephone carriers and to impose access fees on these providers. Some Internet service providers are seeking to have broadband Internet access over cable systems regulated in much the same manner as telephone services, which could slow the deployment of broadband Internet access services. Because of these proceedings or others, new laws or regulations could be enacted which could burden the companies that provide the infrastructure on which the Internet is based, thereby slowing the rapid expansion of the medium and its availability to new users.
8
Other Regulations. The growth of the Internet and e-commerce may lead to the enactment of more stringent consumer protection laws. The Federal Trade Commission may use its existing jurisdiction to police e-commerce activities, and it is possible that the Federal Trade Commission will seek authority from Congress to regulate certain on-line activities.
Generally applicable laws may affect us and our partner companies. The exact applicability of many of these laws to B2B e-commerce, however, is uncertain.
Proprietary Rights
Our partner companies have copyrights with respect to software applications, websites and other materials. These materials may constitute an important part of our partner companies assets and competitive strengths. Federal law generally protects such copyrights for 90 years from the creation of the underlying material.
Competition
Competition From our Stockholders and Within our Network
We may compete with our stockholders and partner companies for Internet-related opportunities. Safeguard Scientifics owns 12.9% of our outstanding common stock, based on the number of shares held on December 31, 2001. This shareholder may compete with us to acquire interests in B2B e-commerce companies. The Chairman of Safeguards Board of Directors and Safeguards former Chairman and CEO are currently members of our board of directors and IBM Corporation has a right to designate a board observer, which may give them access to our business plan and knowledge about potential transactions. In addition, we may compete with our partner companies to acquire interests in B2B e-commerce companies, and our partner companies may compete with each other for acquisitions or other B2B e-commerce opportunities. Such competition, and the complications posed by the designated directors, may deter companies from partnering with us and may limit our business opportunities.
Competition Facing our Partner Companies
Competition for Internet products and services is intense. As the market for B2B e-commerce grows, we expect that competition will intensify. Barriers to entry are minimal, and competitors can offer products and services at a relatively low cost. Our partner companies compete for a share of a customers:
Purchasing budget for services, materials and supplies with other on-line providers and traditional distribution channels;
Dollars spent on consulting services with many established information systems and management consulting firms; and
Advertising budget with on-line services and traditional off-line media, such as print and trade associations.
In addition, some of our partner companies compete to attract and retain a critical mass of buyers and sellers. Several companies offer competitive solutions that compete with one or more of our partner companies. We expect that additional companies will offer competing solutions on a stand-alone or combined basis in the future. Furthermore, our partner companies competitors may develop Internet products or services that are superior to, or have greater market acceptance than, the solutions offered by our partner companies. If our partner companies are unable to compete successfully against their competitors, our partner companies may fail.
Many of our partner companies competitors have greater brand recognition and greater financial, marketing and other resources than our partner companies. This may place our partner companies at a disadvantage in responding to their competitors pricing strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic partnerships and other initiatives.
Employees
We have reduced our corporate headcount from 107 at December 31, 2000 to 31 at March 15, 2002 in order to reduce our corporate expenses. Although we believe our current staffing levels are adequate to conduct our business, we cannot ensure that we will not need to increase our headcount in the future.

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings
In May and June 2001, the Company and certain of its present and former directors, officers and underwriters were named as defendants in nine class action complaints filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The plaintiffs and the alleged classes they seek to represent include present and former stockholders of the Company. The complaints generally allege violations of Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, based on, among other things, the dissemination of statements allegedly containing material misstatements and/or omissions concerning the commissions received by the underwriters of the initial public offering and follow-on public offering of the Company as well as failure to disclose the existence of purported agreements by the underwriters with some of the purchasers in these offerings to buy additional shares of the Companys stock subsequently in the open market at pre-determined prices above the initial offering prices. The plaintiffs seek for themselves and the alleged class members an award of damages and litigation costs and expenses. The claims against the Company in these cases have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes (together with other issuers and underwriters) before one judge in the Southern District of New York federal court. There have been no other material developments in these cases to date. We intend to defend these actions vigorously.
ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

ITEM 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth elsewhere in this report and the risks discussed in our other SEC filings. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Although we refer in this report to the companies in which we have acquired a convertible debt or an equity ownership interest as our partner companies and indicate that we have a partnership with these companies we do not act as an agent or legal representative for any of our partner companies, and we do not have the power or authority to legally bind any of our partner companies, and we do not have the types of liabilities in relation to our partner companies that a general partner of a partnership would have.
We are an Internet company actively engaged in B2B e-commerce through a network of partner companies. Because we own significant interests in B2B e-commerce companies, many of which generate net losses, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant volatility in our quarterly results. While many of our partner companies have consistently reported losses, we have recorded net income in certain periods and experienced significant volatility from period to period due to one-time transactions and other events incidental to our ownership interests in partner companies. These transactions and events are described in more detail in Notes 2 and 16 of our Consolidated Financial Statements and include dispositions of and changes to our partner company ownership interests, dispositions of our holdings of available-for-sale securities, and impairment charges.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to our investments in our partner companies, marketable securities, revenues, income taxes and commitments and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
12
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are most important to the presentation of our financial statements and require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.
Impairment Charges
We continually evaluate the carrying value of our ownership interests, including goodwill and other intangibles, in each of our partner companies for possible impairment based on achievement of business plan objectives and milestones, the value of each ownership interest in the partner company relative to carrying value, including goodwill and other intangibles, the financial condition and prospects of the partner company, and other relevant factors. The business plan objectives and milestones we consider include, among others, those related to financial performance such as achievement of planned financial results or completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as obtaining key business relationships or the hiring of key employees.
If an indication of impairment exists with respect to the carrying value of a partner company, including goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an evaluation by comparing the estimated fair value of the asset with its carrying value. Fair value is determined by estimating the cash flows related to the asset, including estimated proceeds on disposition. If the fair value is less than the carrying value a loss is recorded. Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted certain provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, we are required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations. Our intangible assets having indefinite useful lives will be tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of 2002 with any impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. The goodwill related to our consolidated and equity method partner companies, which to date has been amortized over a three-year period, will no longer be subject to amortization. Goodwill related to our consolidated partner companies will be evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 142 by the end of the second quarter of 2002, with any resulting impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. Goodwill associated with our equity method partner companies will continue to be assessed for impairment under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 18, Equity Method Investments. For further information on SFAS No. 142, refer to the discussion under Recent Accounting Pronouncements below.
Investments in Marketable Securities
We have investments in marketable equity securities that are publicly traded and are highly volatile. We record an impairment charge when we believe an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other-than-temporary. In determining if a decline in market value below cost for a publicly traded security is other-than-temporary, we evaluate the relevant market conditions, offering prices, trends of earnings, price multiples and other key measures providing an indication of the instruments fair value. When a decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary, we recognize an impairment loss in the current period to the extent of the decline below the carrying value of the investment. Adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in additional other-than-temporary losses in future periods.
Revenues
Our revenues are the combination of the revenues of all of our consolidated partner companies. These revenues are derived from software license sales, product sales where we act as a principal or an agent, and a wide variety of service arrangements. The recognition of revenue requires various subjective estimates depending on our arrangements with our customers. These estimates include estimated costs of service arrangements, expected customers lives over which certain revenues have been allocated, probability of collections and estimates of returns and allowances.
Deferred Income Taxes
We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We consider future taxable income and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance. In the event that we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets is charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. Likewise, if we later determine that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized, then the previously provided valuation allowance would be reversed.
13
Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we are a defendant or plaintiff in various legal actions, which arise in the normal course of business. We are also a guarantor of various third-party obligations and commitments. We are required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves required for these contingencies, if any, which would be charged to earnings, is made after careful analysis of each individual issue. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in circumstances, such as a change in settlement strategy. Changes in required reserves could increase or decrease our earnings in the period the changes are made.
Basis of Presentation
Effect of Various Accounting Methods on our Results of Operations
The various interests that we acquire in our partner companies are accounted for under three broad methods: consolidation, equity method and cost method. The applicable accounting method is generally determined based on our voting interest in a partner company.
Consolidation. Partner companies in which we directly or indirectly own more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities or those where we have effective control are generally accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. Under this method, a partner companys accounts are reflected within our 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 our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Minority interest adjusts our consolidated net results of operations to reflect only our share of the earnings or losses of the consolidated partner company.
Equity Method. Partner companies whose results we do not consolidate, but over whom we exercise significant influence, are generally accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Whether or not we exercise significant influence with respect to a partner company depends on an evaluation of several factors including, among others, representation on the partner companys 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 our holdings in common, preferred and other convertible instruments in the partner company. Under the equity method of accounting, a partner companys accounts are not reflected within our Consolidated Statements of Operations; however, our share of the earnings or losses of the partner company is reflected in the caption Equity loss share of partner company losses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
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, our share of the earnings or losses of these companies is not included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Reportable Segments
Our reportable segments using the management approach under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of a Business Enterprise and Related Information consist of two operating segments, the Core Operating Segment and the Emerging Operating Segment. The Core Operating Segment includes those partner companies in which we take a very active role in providing strategic direction and management assistance. The Emerging Operating Segment includes investments in partner companies that we manage to provide the greatest near term stockholder value. The Companys and partner companies operations were principally in the United States of America during all periods presented.

In periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2001, our segments were composed of Partner Company Operations and General ICG Operations. All prior periods have been restated to reflect this change in the composition of our reporting segments. The development of the Core and Emerging Segments was based on partner companies in our network in the fourth quarter of 2001. As a result, the partner companies included within the segments are consistently the same 47 companies for 2001, 2000 and 1999. The dispositions column includes the results for partner companies which were disposed of before the new segments were developed. The most significant individual partner companies revenues and net loss related to these dispositions were as follows: RightWorks, revenues of $15.2 million and $19.4 million and net losses of $135.8 million and $227.6 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively; PaperExchange.com, revenues of $4.4 million and $12.6 million and net losses of $15.6 million and $41.1 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively; and Breakaway Solutions, revenues of $14.7 million in 1999 and net losses of $60.9 million, $86.2 million, and $10.6 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.
The following summarizes the unaudited selected financial information related to our segments. Each segment includes the results of our consolidated partner companies and records our share of earnings and losses of partner companies accounted for under the equity method of accounting and captures our basis in the assets of all of our partner companies. All significant intersegment activity has been eliminated and assets are either owned by or allocated to each operating segment. Corporate expenses represent our General and Administrative expenses of supporting the partner companies. The measure of segment net loss reviewed by us does not include items such as impairment related charges, income taxes, extraordinary items and accounting changes, which are reflected as other reconciling items in the information which follows.

Revenue
Revenue from Core companies was $99.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. As a result of our acquisitions of majority ownership positions in AssetTRADE.com, Inc. ("AssetTRADE"), CommerceQuest, eCredit, Logistics.com and OneCoast, Core revenue increased $49.9 million for the year ending December 31, 2001 versus the year ending December 31, 2000. Increases in the customer bases and increased activity of existing customers of ICG Commerce and Delphion as well as an acquisition at ICG Commerce resulted in increased revenues of $43.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2001 versus the year ending December 31, 2000.
Cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative
Cost of revenue represents costs of providing our services as well as costs of products sold in exchange business where we act as a principal. Selling, general and administrative costs relate to promotion of our products and services as well as administrative support and facility expenses. Cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative for Core companies was $176.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus $78.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. These operating expenses have increased for the year ended December 31, 2001 by approximately $56.0 million due to our acquisition of majority ownership positions in AssetTRADE, CommerceQuest, eCredit, Logistics.com and OneCoast.

In addition, those costs attributable to ICG Commerce and Delphion increased by approximately $49.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus the year ended December 31, 2000 as a result of ICG Commerces acquisition, increased operating expenses at ICG Commerce as they develop their business plan and as a result of Delphion being consolidated for a greater period during 2001 than in 2000.
Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles
Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles related to Core companies was $82 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, versus $33.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This increase primarily relates to the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles related to our acquisition of majority ownership positions in AssetTRADE, CommerceQuest, eCredit, Logistics.com and OneCoast.
Equity Loss
A significant portion of our net results from our Core companies is derived from those Core companies in which we hold a significant minority ownership interest. Our share of income or losses of these companies is recorded in our Consolidated Statement of Operations under Equity loss-share of partner company losses. Our carrying value for a partner company accounted for under the equity method of accounting includes unamortized goodwill.
Our equity loss-share of partner company losses related to our Core companies was $277.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus $222.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Approximately $105 million of this increase is the result of our share of Verticalnets, eMerge Interactives and Universal Accesss increased losses of $81.8 million, $10.0 million and $13.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus the year ended December 31, 2000. This increase is partially offset by a decrease in equity loss of approximately $30.6 million related to AssetTRADE, CommerceQuest, eCredit, Logistics.com and OneCoast becoming consolidated companies during 2001 combined with decreased losses at a majority of our Core equity method partner companies resulting from increased revenue and reduced cost structures.
Our carrying value in certain equity method partner companies has been reduced to zero. As a result, we will not record our share of these companies losses until such time as our share of income equals the unrecorded losses or the partner companies equity transactions result in an adjustment of our carrying value. Of those companies which have a zero carrying value as of December 31, 2001, Verticalnet has had the largest impact on our past results. Our share of Verticalnets net loss for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $184.8 million, $85.2 million and $19.1 million respectively. We only recorded $167.0 million of our share of Verticalnets net loss in 2001 which reduced our carrying value to zero. Our partner companies with a zero basis may continue to incur losses in 2002 which may not have an impact on our 2002 results.
Equity loss goodwill amortization related to Core companies was $90.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, versus $162.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Approximately $59.5 million of this decrease relates to AssetTRADE, CommerceQuest, eCredit, Logistics.com and OneCoast becoming consolidated companies during 2001. Approximately $7.3 million relates to a decrease in goodwill amortization for eMerge Interactive as we recorded gains on issuance of stock in eMerge Interactive and eliminated our goodwill balance.

Revenue, cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative
Cost of revenue represents costs of providing our services as well as costs of products sold in exchange business where we act as a principal. Selling, general and administrative costs relate to promotion of our products and services as well as administrative support and facility expenses. Our consolidated Emerging companies have generated negligible revenues to date. The operating expenses for 2001 and 2000 respectively were $17.1 million and $11.1 million. This increase was primarily due to the consolidation of eMarketCapital, Emptoris and OnMedica for a greater period in 2001 versus 2000. No Emerging companies were consolidated during 1999.
Equity Loss
A significant portion of our net results from our Emerging companies is derived from those Emerging companies in which we hold a significant minority ownership interest. Our share of income or losses of these companies is recorded in our Consolidated Statement of Operations under Equity loss-share of partner company losses. Our carrying value for a partner company accounted for under the equity method of accounting includes unamortized goodwill.
Our equity loss-share of partner company losses related to our Emerging companies was $55.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 versus $90.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Approximately $18.6 million of this decrease relates to Commerx as it significantly changed its business plans and significantly cut its workforce. Approximately $4.3 million of this decrease relates to Onvia.com. Onvias net loss decreased approximately $12.4 million as it discontinued certain products and businesses. The remaining decrease relates to 12 other Emerging companies, which have reduced their operating expenses over the past year.
Equity loss goodwill amortization related to Emerging companies was $28.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, versus $24.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This increase primarily relates to additional fundings to two of our Emerging companies in 2000 resulting in additional goodwill subject to amortization.

General and Administrative
Our general and administrative costs consist primarily of employee compensation, facilities, outside services such as legal, accounting and consulting, and travel-related costs. During 2000 we significantly increased the number of employees and opened several offices to support our growing base of partner companies. As a result of these initiatives, our general and administrative costs increased $61.0 million and $14.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. General and administrative expenses were $37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, versus $78.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease is the result of the restructuring of our operations. See the subsection Restructuring below.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock based compensation for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 included $14.4 million, $7.1 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of amortization expense related to grants of restricted stock to employees during 2001 and options granted below fair value in 1999. Stock-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased as the result of restricted stock grants to employees. Aggregate deferred compensation will be amortized over the remaining vesting periods for stock options or the lapse of restrictions in the case of restricted stock.
Restructuring (Impairment Related and Other)
During 2000 and 2001, we restructured our operations to better align our general and administrative expenses with the reduction in the number of our partner companies. The restructuring resulted in charges of $32.9 million and $25.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The total of $58.8 million consisted of $27.9 million of non-cash charges related to vesting acceleration of stock options and fixed assets write-offs and $30.9 million in employee severance and lease termination costs. These charges are included in Impairment Related and Other in the Consolidated Statement of Operations (See Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
Interest Income/Expense
The increase in interest expense, net of $22.2 million is primarily due to the decrease in the average balance of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments during 2001 versus 2000. Interest expense during the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 was primarily attributable to the December 1999 issuance of $566.3 million in convertible subordinated notes due 2004 bearing interest at 5.5%.
Other Items
Impairment Charges
We operate in an industry that is rapidly evolving and extremely competitive. Many Internet based businesses, including some with B2B business models, have experienced difficulty in raising additional capital necessary to fund operating losses and continued investments that their management teams believe are necessary to sustain operations. Valuations of public companies operating in the Internet B2B e-commerce sector declined significantly during 2001. In 1999 and 2000 we announced several significant acquisitions that were financed principally with shares of our Common Stock and, based on the price of the Common Stock at that time were valued in excess of $1 billion. Based on the our periodic review of our partner company holdings impairment charges of $1.3 billion and $348.6 million were recorded in 2001 and 2000, respectively, to write off certain partner company holdings (See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
Income Taxes
From our inception in March 1996 to February 1999, we were not subject to federal and state income taxes. On February 2, 1999, we converted from a limited liability company to a corporation. Our accumulated deficit of $8.7 million at that date was reclassed to additional paid-in capital. From our inception on March 4, 1996 to February 2, 1999, we were organized as a limited liability company and were treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. As a result of our converting from a limited liability company to a corporation on February 2, 1999, we are subject to corporate federal and state income taxes. At the time of our conversion to a corporation, we recorded a deferred tax benefit and related deferred tax asset of $7.7 million, which primarily represented the excess of tax basis over book basis of our partner companies.
20
Our net deferred tax asset of $24.1 million at December 31, 2000 primarily consists of deferred tax assets of $94.6 million, relating primarily to net operating loss carry forwards, offset by deferred tax liabilities of $70.5 million primarily resulting from the excess of book carrying values over tax carrying values of our partner companies. During 2001 we recorded a full valuation allowance against our net assets (See Note 12 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
Extraordinary Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
On November 13, 2001 we purchased and extinguished $120.2 million principal amount of our convertible subordinated notes due 2004 for $35.5 million in cash. As a result, we recorded a gain of $51.0 million, net of tax of $30.0 million. In addition we incurred approximately $3.7 million in costs in connection with our purchase which are included in our determination of the gain.
Other Income (Loss), Net
Other income (loss), net decreased in the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2000 as we recognized significant gains in 2000 relating to our sale of TRADEX Technologies, Inc. to Ariba, Inc. and stock issuances by Verticalnet and Breakaway Solutions, Inc. ("Breakaway Solutions") versus losses in 2001 for impairment charges on cost method partner companies, sales of available-for-sale securities and losses related to the fair value of partner company warrants (See Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2001 we had $225.5 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, $17.4 million in available-for-sale securities, principally shares in Divine, Inc. and i2 Technologies, Inc. (see Notes 4 and 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements) and $9.7 million in restricted cash for total liquidity of $252.6 million. In addition, our consolidated partner companies had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments of $34.9 million. Consolidated working capital decreased to $182.0 million at December 31, 2001 compared to $370.8 million at December 31, 2000, primarily as a result of net cash outflows from operations, acquisition of additional ownership interest in partner companies and dispositions of ownership interests in partner companies and available-for-sale securities during the year ended December 31, 2001.
Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $289.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to $273.8 million during the same prior year period. The increase is primarily the result of the increased losses at our consolidated partner companies.
Net cash provided by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2001 was $124.0 million versus net cash used in investing activities of $823.5 million during the comparable 2000 period. The increase is primarily due to reduced acquisitions of ownership interests in 2001 versus 2000 and proceeds from partner company dispositions and sales of available-for-sale securities.
Existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities of our consolidated partner companies to third parties, proceeds from the potential sales of all or a portion of our available-for-sale securities or minority interests in certain partner companies, and other internal sources of cash flow are expected to be sufficient to fund our cash requirements through the next 12 months, including commitments to new and existing partner companies, debt obligations and general operations requirements. At December 31, 2001, we were obligated for $63 million of funding and guarantee commitments to existing partner companies. If a certain consolidated partner company achieves a fair market value in excess of $1.0 billion, we will be obligated to pay, in cash or stock at our option, 4% of the partner companys fair market value in excess of $1.0 billion, up to $70 million to a venture capital firm. We and a significant stockholder are limited partners of this venture capital firm. This contingent obligation will expire on the earlier to occur of May 31, 2005 or an unaffiliated company sale, if the valuation milestone is not achieved. Currently, the fair market value of this partner company is well below $1.0 billion. We will continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities and may acquire additional ownership interests in new and existing partner companies in the next 12 months; however, such acquisitions will be made at our discretion. If we elect to make additional acquisitions, it may become necessary for us to raise additional funds. We may not be able to raise additional capital and failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution.
21
We and our consolidated subsidiaries are involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not expect the ultimate liability with respect to these actions will materially affect our financial position or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No.141 also specifies criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.
We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141 as of July 1, 2001, and certain provisions of SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any goodwill and any intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life that is acquired in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 was not amortized, but will continue to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with the appropriate pre-SFAS No. 142 accounting literature. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in business combinations completed before July 1, 2001 were amortized through December 31, 2001 in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.
Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, we are required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations. Our intangible assets having indefinite useful lives will be tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of 2002 with any impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. The goodwill related to our consolidated and equity method partner companies, which to date has been amortized over a three-year period, will no longer be subject to amortization. Goodwill related to our consolidated partner companies will be evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 142 by the end of the second quarter of 2002, with any resulting impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. Goodwill associated with our equity method partner companies will continue to be assessed for impairment under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 18, Equity Method Investments.
As of January 1, 2002, the date of adoption of SFAS No. 142, we have unamortized goodwill and intangibles in the amount of $140.3 million which will be subject to the transition provisions of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill and intangibles was $300 million and $553 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
22
On October 3, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, it retains many of the fundamental provisions of that Statement. SFAS No. 144 also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. However, it retains the requirements in Opinion No. 30 to report separately discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution of owners) or is classified as held for sale.
We are required to adopt SFAS No. 144 no later than the year beginning after December 15, 2001, and plan to adopt its provisions for the quarter ending March 31, 2002. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 for long-lived assets held for use to have a material impact on our financial statements because the impairment assessment under SFAS No. 144 is largely unchanged from SFAS No. 121. The provisions of the Statement for assets held for sale or other disposal generally are required to be applied prospectively after the adoption date to newly initiated disposal activities. Therefore, management cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS No. 144 will have on the Companys financial statements.

Risks Particular to Internet Capital Group
Our ability to grow our business and the businesses of our partner companies may be adversely affected if economic conditions in the United States are not favorable.
The United States economy has been weakened by, among other things, a recession and the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and the response of the United States to such attacks. These matters, and subsequent future terrorist attacks or hostilities or economic deterioration, could continue to result in further weakness in the United States economy, which could negatively affect our business.
23
We have a limited operating history upon which you may evaluate us.
We were formed in March 1996 and have a limited operating history upon which you may evaluate our business and prospects. We and our partner companies are among the many companies that have entered into the emerging business-to-business, or B2B, e-commerce market. Many of our partner companies are in the early stages of their development. Our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risk, expense and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in early stages of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as B2B e-commerce. If we are unable to effectively allocate our resources and help develop those existing partner companies that we believe have the most near term potential, our stock price may be adversely affected and we may be unable to execute our strategy of developing and maintaining a collaborative network of partner companies.
Our stock price has been volatile in the past and may continue to be volatile in the future.
Our stock price has historically been very volatile. Stock prices of companies engaged in B2B e-commerce have generally been volatile as well. This volatility may continue in the future.
The following factors, among others, will add to our common stock prices volatility:
actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly results and those of our partner companies;
changes in the market valuations of our partner companies and other Internet companies;
conditions or trends in the Internet industry in general and the B2B sector in particular;
negative public perception of the prospects of Internet companies;
changes in our financial estimates and those of our partner companies by securities analysts;
new products or services offered by us, our partner companies and their competitors;
announcements by our partner companies and their competitors of technological innovations;
announcements by us or our partner companies or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;
our capital commitments;
additional sales of our securities;
additions to or departures of our key personnel or key personnel of our partner companies; and
general economic conditions such as a recession or interest rate or currency rate fluctuations.
Many of these factors are beyond our control. These factors may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance.
We may be unable to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq National Market, which could cause our stock price to fall and decrease the liquidity of our common stock.
Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq National Market, which has requirements for the continued listing of stock. One of the requirements is that our common stock maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. If the closing bid for our common stock remains below $1.00 for thirty consecutive trading days, Nasdaq may send us a notice indicating that we need to come back into compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid requirement and if such compliance is not achieved we could be delisted. The bid price for our common stock has recently fallen below $1.00 for extended periods of time however, as of March 29, 2002 it has not remained below $1.00 for 30 consecutive days. Additionally, if our stock continues to trade under $3.00, another listing requirement that we need to comply with is that we have $10 million in stockholders equity, provided that until November 1, 2002 we can elect to be subject to an alternative test that requires $4 million in net tangible assets. Although we currently comply with this standard, we may not be able to comply with this requirement or other listing requirements in the future. If our common stock continues to trade below $1.00, if we fail to meet the stockholders equity/net tangible asset test, or we are unable to comply with any of the other listing requirements, our common stock may be delisted from the Nasdaq National Market, the trading market for our common stock could decline which could depress our stock price and adversely affect the liquidity of our common stock.
24
Our business depends upon the performance of our partner companies, which is uncertain.
Economic, governmental, industry and internal company factors outside our control affect each of our partner companies. If our partner companies do not succeed, the value of our assets and the price of our common stock could decline. The material risks relating to our partner companies include:
| fluctuations in the market price of the common stock of Verticalnet, eMerge Interactive, Onvia.com, and Universal Access, our publicly traded partner companies, and other future publicly traded partner companies, which are likely to affect the price of our common stock; | ||
| many of our partner companies are in the early stages of their development with limited operating history, little revenue and substantial losses; | ||
| lack of the widespread commercial use of the Internet, which may prevent our partner companies from succeeding; | ||
| intensifying competition for the products and services our partner companies offer, which could lead to the failure of some of our partner companies; and | ||
| the inability of our partner companies to secure additional financing, which may force some of our partner companies to cease or scale back operations. |
Of our $671.3 million in total assets as of December 31, 2001, $179.4 million, or 26.7% consisted of ownership interests in and advances to our partner companies. The carrying value of our partner company ownership interests includes our original acquisition cost, the effect of accounting for certain of our partner companies under the equity method of accounting, the effect of adjustments to our carrying value resulting from certain issuances of equity securities by our partner companies, and the effect of impairment charges recorded for the decrease in value of certain partner companies. The carrying value of our partner companies will be impaired and decrease if one or more of our partner companies do not succeed. The carrying value of our partner companies is not marked to market; therefore, a decline in the market value of one of our publicly traded partner companies may impact our financial position by not more than the carrying value of the partner company. However, this decline would likely affect the price of our common stock. For example, our stakes in our publicly traded partner companies, Verticalnet, eMerge Interactive, Onvia.com, and Universal Access, were valued at approximately $34.4 million, $9.2 million, $9.3 million and $101.6 million, respectively as of December 31, 2001. A decline in the market value of Verticalnet, eMerge Interactive, Onvia.com, and Universal Access will likely cause a decline in the price of our common stock.
Other material risks relating to our partner companies are more fully described below under Risks Particular to Our Partner Companies.
Because we have limited resources to dedicate to our partner companies, some of the partner companies may not be able to raise sufficient capital to sustain their operations.
Our allocation of resources to our partner companies is discretionary. Because our resources and our ability to raise capital are limited we cannot commit to provide our partner companies with sufficient capital resources to allow them to reach a cash flow positive position. If our partner companies are not able to raise capital from other outside sources, then they may need to cease operations.
Our partner company network may suffer a negative effect as a result of our reduction in support of some of our partner companies.
We intend to allocate the majority of our capital and human resources to those partner companies that we believe present the greatest stockholder value. Although those partner companies that do not fall within this category will remain within our network so long as we continue to own an interest in them, the quality of the network may suffer if a large number of the participants do not receive sufficient support from us or from other sources. Additionally, partner companies that believe that we are not allocating an appropriate level of resources to them may choose not to participate in our network, which would adversely affect our strategy of building and maintaining a collaborative network of B2B companies.
25
We may not be able to pay our long-term debt when it matures.
In December 1999 we issued convertible subordinated notes that bear interest at an annual rate of 5.5% and mature in December 2004. As of December 31, 2001, $446.1 million face value of these notes was outstanding. We may be unable to repay this long-term debt when it matures. If we are unable to satisfy this obligation, substantial liquidity problems could result.
If public and private capital markets are not favorable for the B2B sector we may not be able to execute on our strategy.
Our strategy involves creating value for our stockholders by building leading B2B e-commerce companies. Our success depends on the acceptance by the public and private capital markets of B2B companies in general, including initial public offerings of those companies. The B2B market has experienced significant volatility recently and the market for initial public offerings of B2B e-commerce companies has been extremely weak during 2000 and 2001. If these conditions continue, we may not be able to create stockholder value by taking our partner companies public. In addition, reduced market interest in B2B e-commerce companies may reduce the market value of our publicly traded partner companies.
Fluctuations in our quarterly results may adversely affect our stock price.
We expect that our quarterly results will fluctuate significantly due to many factors, including:
| the operating results of our partner companies; | ||
| significant fluctuations in the financial results of B2B e-commerce companies generally; | ||
| changes in equity losses or income and amortization of goodwill; | ||
| the acquisition or divestiture of interests in partner companies; | ||
| changes in our methods of accounting for our partner company interests, which may result from changes in our ownership percentages of our partner companies; | ||
| sales of equity securities by our partner companies, which could cause us to recognize gains or losses under applicable accounting rules; | ||
| the pace of development or a decline in growth of the B2B e-commerce market; | ||
| competition for the goods and services offered by our partner companies; and | ||
| our ability to effectively manage our growth and the growth of our partner companies. |
We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not meaningful. If our operating results in one or more quarters do not meet securities analysts or investors expectations, the price of our common stock could decrease.
The loss of any of our or our partner companies executive officers or other key personnel or our or our partner companies inability to attract additional key personnel could disrupt our business and operations.
We believe that our success will depend on continued employment by us and our partner companies of executive officers and key personnel, as well as on our and our partner companies ability to attract additional qualified personnel. Most of our current executive officers or key personnel are not bound by employment agreements for any specific term. If one or more members of our executive officers or key personnel, or our partner companies executive offices or key personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, or if we or our partner companies were unable to hire qualified personnel, our business and operations could be disrupted and our operating results and financial condition would be seriously harmed.
The success of some of our partner companies also depends on their having highly trained technical and marketing personnel. A shortage in the number of trained technical and marketing personnel could limit the ability of our partner companies to increase sales of their existing products and services and launch new product offerings.
We may have reduced our staffing levels to levels that are not adequate to conduct our business.
We have reduced our headcount from 107 at December 31, 2000 to 31 at March 15, 2002 in order to reduce our corporate expenses. Although we believe our current staffing levels are adequate to conduct our business, we cannot ensure that we will not need to increase our headcount in the future.
26
We have had a history of losses and expect continued losses in the foreseeable future.
We have had significant operating losses and, excluding the effect of any future non-operating gains, we expect to continue incurring significant operating losses in the future. As a result, we may not have sufficient resources to expand our operations in the future. We can give no assurances as to when or whether we will achieve profitability, and if we ever have profits, we may not be able to sustain them.
We may have difficulty assisting our partner companies in managing their operations
Our partner companies are facing different challenges. Some are growing rapidly and some face elongated sales cycles. These situations are likely to place significant strain on their resources and on the resources we allocate to assist our partner companies. In addition, our management may be unable to convince our partner companies to adopt our ideas for effectively and successfully managing such situations.
Our accounting estimates with respect to the useful life and ultimate recoverability of our basis in our partner companies could change materially in the near term.
We operate in an industry that is rapidly evolving and extremely competitive. Many Internet based businesses, including some with B2B business models, have experienced difficulty in raising additional capital necessary to fund operating losses and continue investments that their management teams believe are necessary to sustain operations. Valuations of public companies operating in the Internet B2B e-commerce sector declined significantly during 2000 and 2001. In the first quarter of 2000 we announced several significant acquisitions that were financed principally with shares of our stock and based on the price of our stock at that time, were valued in excess of $1 billion. Based on our periodic review of our partner company holdings, including those valued during 2001, impairment charges of $1.3 billion were recorded to write off certain partner company holdings during 2001. It is reasonably possible that our accounting estimates with respect to the useful life and ultimate recoverability of our carrying basis including goodwill in other partner companies could change in the near term and that the effect of such changes on the financial statements could be material. At year end the recorded amount of carrying basis including goodwill is not impaired, although we cannot assure that our future results will confirm this assessment, that a significant write-down or write-off of partner company carrying basis including goodwill will not be required in the future, or that a significant loss will not be recorded in the future upon the sale of a partner company.
We may compete with some of our stockholders and partner companies, and our partner companies may compete with each other, which could deter companies from partnering with us and may limit future business opportunities.
We may compete with some of our stockholders and partner companies for Internet-related opportunities. As of December 31, 2001, Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. owns 12.9% of our outstanding common stock and may compete with us to acquire interests in B2B e-commerce companies. The Chairman of Safeguards Board of Directors and Safeguards former Chairman and CEO are currently members of our board of directors and IBM Corporation may have a right to designate a board observer, which may give them access to our business plan and knowledge about potential transactions. In addition, we may compete with our partner companies to acquire interests in B2B e-commerce companies, and our partner companies may compete with each other for B2B e-commerce opportunities. This competition, and the complications posed by the designated directors, may deter companies from partnering with us and may limit our business opportunities.
Our partner companies could make business decisions that are not in our best interests or that we do not agree with, which could impair the value of our partner company interests.
Although we generally seek a significant equity interest and participation in the management of our Core partner companies, we may not be able to control significant business decisions of our Core partner companies. In addition, although we currently own a controlling interest in many of our Core partner companies, we may not maintain this controlling interest. Interests in partner companies in which we lack control or share control involves additional risks that could cause the performance of our interest and our operating results to suffer, including the management of a partner company having economic or business interests or objectives that are different than ours and partner companies not taking our advice with respect to the financial or operating difficulties that they may encounter.
Our inability to prevent dilution of our ownership interests in our partner companies or our inability to otherwise have a controlling influence over the management and operations of our partner companies could have an adverse impact on our status under the Investment Company Act. Our ability to adequately control our partner companies could also prevent us from assisting them, or could prevent us from liquidating our interest in them at a time or at a price that is favorable to us.
27
Additionally, our partner companies may not collaborate with each other or act in ways that are consistent with our business strategy. These factors could hamper our ability to maximize returns on our interests, and cause us to recognize losses on our interests in partner companies.
Our global expansion exposes us to less developed markets, currency fluctuations and political instability, which could adversely impact our financial results and our partner companies ability to conduct business.
We have acquired partner companies in Europe. This international expansion exposes us to several risks, including the following:
| Less Developed Markets. We believe that e-commerce markets outside the United States are less developed than the United States e-commerce market. If the e-commerce markets outside the United States do not continue to mature, any of our partner companies outside the United States may not succeed. | ||
| Currency Fluctuations. When we purchase interests in non-United States partner companies for cash, we will likely have to pay for the interests using the currency of the country where the prospective partner company is located. Similarly, although it is generally our intention to act as a long-term partner to our partner companies, if we sold an interest in a non-United States partner company we might receive foreign currency. To the extent that we transact in foreign currencies, fluctuations in the relative value of these currencies and the United States dollar may adversely impact our financial results. | ||
| Compliance with Laws. We are subject to the laws and regulations of foreign countries. We may not be familiar with these laws and regulations, and these laws and regulations may change at any time. | ||
| Political Instability. We own or may purchase interests in foreign partner companies that are located, or transact business in, parts of the world that experience political instability. Political instability may have an adverse impact on the subject countrys economy, and may limit or eliminate a partner companys ability to conduct business. |
Our outstanding indebtedness could negatively impact our future prospects.
As of December 31, 2001, we had $33.4 million in long-term debt (including the current portion thereof) and $446.1 million in outstanding convertible subordinated notes. This indebtedness may:
| make it more difficult to obtain additional financing; | ||
| limit our ability to deploy existing capital resources; and | ||
| constrain our ability to react quickly in an unfavorable economic climate. |
If we are unable to satisfy our debt service requirements, substantial liquidity problems could result, which would negatively impact our future prospects.
Our operations and growth could be impaired by limitations on our and our partner companies ability to raise money.
We have been dependent on the capital markets for access to funds for acquisitions, operations and other purposes. While we attempt to operate our business in such a manner so as to be independent from the capital markets, there is no assurance that we will be successful in doing so. Our partner companies are also dependent on the capital markets to raise capital for their own purposes. During 2000 and 2001, the market for Internet-related companies and initial public offerings weakened dramatically. If this weakness continues for an extended period of time, our ability and the ability of our partner companies to grow and access the capital markets, if necessary, will be impaired, which would require us to take other actions, such as borrowing money on terms that may be unfavorable to us, or divesting of interests in our partner companies to raise capital.
Our stakes in some partner companies have been and are likely to be diluted, which could materially reduce the value of our stake in such partner companies.
Since we allocate our financial resources to those partner companies that we believe have the most potential, our ownership interests in other partner companies have been and are likely to continue to be diluted due to our decision not to participate in financings. This dilution results in a reduction in the value of our stakes in such partner companies.
28
In the future, we may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations and this capital may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
We may need to raise additional funds in the future, and we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.
When we divest partner company interests, we may be unable to obtain maximum value for such interests.
We have realigned our capital and human resources around those partner companies that we believe present the greatest stockholder value. We may divest our interests in those partner companies that do not fit this criteria or in other partner companies that we believe are no longer core to our strategy. When we divest all or part of an interest in a partner company, we may not receive maximum value for this position. For partner companies with publicly-traded stock, we may be unable to sell our interest at then-quoted market prices. Furthermore, for those partner companies that do not have publicly-traded stock, the realizable value of our interests may ultimately prove to be lower than the carrying value currently reflected in our consolidated financial statements. We continually evaluate the carrying value of our ownership interests in and advances to each of our partner companies for possible impairment based on achievement of business plan objectives and milestones, the value of each ownership interest in the partner company relative to carrying value, the financial condition and prospects of the partner company, and other relevant factors. If we are unable to raise capital from other sources we may be forced to sell our stakes in partner companies at unfavorable prices in order to sustain our operations. Additionally, we may be unable to find buyers for certain of our assets, which could adversely affect our business.
We may have difficulty selling our stakes in our publicly traded partner companies.
Because we hold significant stakes in thinly-traded public companies, we may have difficulty selling our interest in such companies and, if we are able to sell our shares, such sales may be at prices that are below the then-quoted bid prices.
Our resources and our ability to manage our partner companies may be strained as a result of our acquisitions.
We have acquired, and may in the future acquire, significant interests in B2B e-commerce companies or increase our stake in existing partner companies that complement our business strategy. In the future, we may acquire larger percentages or larger interests in existing or new partner companies than we have in the past, or we may seek to acquire 100% ownership of companies. We may also spend more on individual acquisitions than we have in the past. These acquisitions may place significantly greater strain on our resources, ability to manage such companies and ability to integrate them into our collaborative network. Future acquisitions are subject to the following risks:
| Our acquisitions may cause a disruption in our ongoing support of our partner companies, distract our management and other resources and make it difficult to maintain our standards, controls and procedures. | ||
| We may not be able to facilitate collaboration between our partner companies and new companies that we acquire. | ||
| To fund future acquisitions we may be required to incur debt or issue equity securities, which may be dilutive to existing stockholders. | ||
| Our acquisitions may limit our ability to provide additional capital resources to some existing partner companies. |
The Companies that we have identified as Core partner companies may not succeed.
We cannot ensure that the companies we have identified as Core partner companies are those that actually have the greatest value proposition or are those to which we will continue to allocate capital. Although we have identified certain of our partner companies as Core partner companies, this categorization does not necessarily imply that every one of our Core partner companies is a de facto success at this time or will become successful in the future. There is no guarantee that a Core partner company will remain categorized as Core or that it will be able to successfully continue operations.
29
Due to our decision to allocate the majority of our resources to our most promising partner companies, our ability to provide support to our other partner companies will be limited.
We have reallocated our resources to focus on those partner companies that we believe present the greatest stockholder value. As a result of our reallocation of resources, we will not allocate capital to all of our existing partner companies. Our decision to not provide additional capital support to some of our partner companies could have a material adverse impact on the operations of such partner companies.
We may have to buy, sell or retain assets when we would otherwise choose not to in order to avoid registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which would impact our investment strategy.
We believe that we are actively engaged in the business of B2B e-commerce through our network of majority-owned subsidiaries and companies that we are considered to control. Under the Investment Company Act, a company is considered to control another company if it owns more than 25% of that companys voting securities and is the largest stockholder of such company. A company may be required to register as an investment company if more than 45% of its total assets consist of, and more than 45% of its income/loss and revenue attributable to it over the last four quarters is derived from, ownership interests in companies it does not control. Because many of our partner companies are not majority-owned subsidiaries, and because we own 25% or less of the voting securities of a number of our partner companies, changes in the value of our interests in our partner companies and the income/loss and revenue attributable to our partner companies could subject us to regulation under the Investment Company Act unless we take precautionary steps. For example, in order to avoid having excessive income from non-controlled interests, we may not sell minority interests we would otherwise want to sell or we may have to generate non-investment income by selling interests in partner companies that we are considered to control. We may also need to ensure that we retain more than 25% ownership interests in our partner companies after any equity offerings. In addition, we may have to acquire additional income or loss generating majority-owned or controlled interests that we might not otherwise have acquired or may not be able to acquire non-controlling interests in companies that we would otherwise want to acquire. It is not feasible for us to be regulated as an investment company because the Investment Company Act rules are inconsistent with our strategy of actively managing, operating and promoting collaboration among our network of partner companies. On August 23, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission granted our request for an exemption under Section 3(b)(2) of the Investment Company Act declaring us to be primarily engaged in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities. This exemptive order reduces the risk that we may have to take action to avoid registration as an investment company, but it does not eliminate the risk.
We have implemented certain anti-takeover provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us.
Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation provides that our board of directors may issue preferred stock without stockholder approval and also provides for a staggered board of directors. We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which restricts certain business combinations with interested stockholders. Additionally, we have a Rights Agreement which has the effect of discouraging any person or group from beneficially owning more that 15% of our outstanding common stock unless our board has amended the plan or redeemed the rights. The combination of these provisions may inhibit a non-negotiated merger or other business combination.
In May 2002 and August 2003 members of management may sell shares of the Companys common stock in connection with the vesting of restricted stock grants, which could have a negative effect on the price of the Companys stock.
Members of our management have been granted shares of restricted stock, which vest in May 2002 and August 2003. We believe that individuals are likely to sell shares of our common stock to cover tax liabilities associated with the vesting and they may sell additional vested shares. Such sales could have a negative effect on the stock price.
Risks Particular to Our Partner Companies
Many of our partner companies have a limited operating history and may never be profitable.
Many of our partner companies are early-stage companies with limited operating histories, have significant historical losses and may never be profitable. Many of these companies have incurred substantial costs to develop and market their products and expand operations, have incurred net losses and cannot fund their cash needs from operations. We expect that the operating expenses of these companies will increase substantially in the foreseeable future as they continue to develop products, increase sales and marketing efforts and expand operations.
30
Fluctuation in the price of the common stock of our publicly-traded partner companies may affect the price of our common stock.
Verticalnet, eMerge Interactive, Onvia.com, and Universal Access are our publicly-traded partner companies. The price of their common stock has been highly volatile. On February 16, 1999, Verticalnet completed its initial public offering at a price of $4.00 per share and its common stock has since traded as high as $148.38 per share and as low as $0.32, adjusted for two subsequent two for one stock splits. On February 8, 2000, eMerge Interactive completed its initial public offering at a price of $15.00 per share and its common stock has traded as high as $68.00 per share and as low as $0.51. On March 1, 2000, Onvia.com completed its initial public offering at a price of $21.00 per share and its common stock has traded as high as $78.00 per share and as low as $0.31 per share. On March 17, 2000, Universal Access completed its initial public offering at a price of $14.00 per share and its common stock has traded as high as $63.00 per share and as low as $0.70. The market value of our holdings in these partner companies changes with these fluctuations. Based on the closing price of Verticalnets common stock on March 15, 2002 of $0.80, our holdings in Verticalnet had a market value of $19.7 million. Based on the closing price of eMerge Interactives common stock on March 15, 2002 of $0.69, our holdings in eMerge Interactive had a market value of $4.8 million. Based on the closing price on Onvia.coms common stock on March 15, 2002 of $0.38, our holdings in Onvia.com had a market value of $6.5 million. Based on the closing price of Universal Access common stock on March 15, 2002 of $2.89, our holdings in Universal Access had a market value of $62.6 million. Fluctuations in the price of Verticalnets, eMerge Interactives, Onvia.coms, and Universal Access and other future publicly-traded partner companies common stock are likely to affect the price of our common stock.
Verticalnets results of operations, and accordingly the price of its common stock, may be adversely affected by the risk factors disclosed in its SEC filings, including the following factors:
| inability to generate significant revenues from enterprise, software licensing and professional services; | ||
| inability to reduce expenses; | ||
| inability to establish brand awareness; | ||
| inability to acquire additional funding; | ||
| inability to maintain listing on the Nasdaq National Market; | ||
| lengthy sales and implementation cycles for products; and | ||
| insufficient cash flow from operations to service dept. |
eMerge Interactives results of operations, and accordingly the price of its common stock, may be adversely affected by the risk factors disclosed in its SEC filings, including the following factors:
| lack of commercial acceptance of online cattle sales and services; | ||
| failure to expand the number of livestock industry participants in its network; | ||
| failure to obtain access to data from feedlots to adequately meet information needs of its customers; | ||
| inability to respond to competitive developments; | ||
| failure to achieve brand recognition; | ||
| failure to introduce new products and services; and | ||
| failure to upgrade and enhance its technologies to accommodate expanded product and service offerings and increased customer traffic. |
Onvia.coms results of operations, and accordingly the price of its common stock, may be adversely affected by the risk factors disclosed in its SEC filings, including the following factors:
| small businesses and government agencies unwillingness to purchase their business services and products online; | ||
| a significant number of small businesses government agencies and their vendors unwillingness to use its emarketplace to buy and sell services and products; | ||
| difficulties associated with its strategic partnership with First Source; | ||
| inability to maintain its listing on Nasdaq; | ||
| failure of small business customers to provide data about themselves; and | ||
| inability to enhance the features and services of its exchange to achieve acceptance and scalability. |
31
Universal Accesss results of operations, and accordingly the price of its common stock, may be adversely affected by the risk factors disclosed in its SEC filings, including the following factors:
| failure of its services to be sufficiently rapid, reliable and cost-effective; | ||
| unwillingness of clients to outsource the obtaining of circuits; | ||
| inability to market its services effectively; | ||
| inability to expand its UTX facilities; | ||
| failure to successfully implement a network operations case; | ||
| inability to implement and maintain its UIX databases; | ||
| failure of the market for UTX services to grow; and | ||
| slow growth of the Internet. |
Our assets as reflected in our balance sheet dated December 31, 2001, were $671.3 million, of which $43.3 million related to Verticalnet, eMerge Interactive, Onvia.com, and Universal Access. However, we believe that comparisons of the value of our holdings in partner companies to the value of our total assets are not meaningful because not all of our partner company ownership interests are marked to market in our balance sheet.
The success of our partner companies depends on the development of the B2B e-commerce market, which is uncertain.
Our partner companies rely on the Internet for the success of their businesses. The development of the e-commerce market is in its early stages. If widespread commercial use of the Internet does not develop, or if the Internet does not develop as an effective medium for providing products and services, our partner companies may not succeed.
Our long-term success depends on widespread market acceptance of B2B e-commerce.
A number of factors could prevent widespread market acceptance of B2B e-commerce, including the following:
| the unwillingness of businesses to shift from traditional processes to B2B e-commerce processes; | ||
| the network necessary for enabling substantial growth in usage of B2B e-commerce may not be adequately developed; | ||
| increased government regulation or taxation, which may adversely affect the viability of B2B e-commerce; | ||
| insufficient availability of telecommunication services or changes in telecommunication services which could result in slower response times for the users of B2B e-commerce; and | ||
| concern and adverse publicity about the security of B2B e-commerce transactions. |
Our partner companies may fail if their competitors provide superior Internet-related offerings or continue to have greater resources than our partner companies have.
Competition for Internet products and services is intense. As the market for B2B e-commerce grows, we expect that competition will intensify. Barriers to entry are minimal, and competitors can offer products and services at a relatively low cost. Our partner companies compete for a share of a customers:
| purchasing budget for services, materials and supplies with other online providers and traditional distribution channels; | ||
| dollars spent on consulting services with many established information systems and management consulting firms; and | ||
| advertising budget with online services and traditional off-line media, such as print and trade associations. |
In addition, some of our partner companies compete to attract and retain a critical mass of buyers and sellers. Many companies offer competitive solutions that compete with one or more of our partner companies. We expect that additional companies will offer competing solutions on a stand-alone or combined basis in the future. Furthermore, our partner companies competitors may develop Internet products or services that are superior to, or have greater market acceptance than, the solutions offered by our partner companies. If our partner companies are unable to compete successfully against their competitors, our partner companies may fail.
32
Many of our partner companies competitors have greater brand recognition and greater financial, marketing and other resources than our partner companies. This may place our partner companies at a disadvantage in responding to their competitors pricing strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic partnerships and other initiatives.
In the future, our partner companies may need to raise additional capital to fund their operations and this capital may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
Our partner companies may need to raise additional funds in the future, and we cannot be certain that they will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.
Some of our partner companies may be unable to protect their proprietary rights and may infringe on the proprietary rights of others.
Our partner companies are inventing new ways of doing business. In support of this innovation, they will develop proprietary techniques, trademarks, processes and software. Although we believe reasonable efforts will be taken to protect the rights to this intellectual property, the complexity of international trade secret, copyright, trademark and patent law, coupled with the limited resources of these young companies and the demands of quick delivery of products and services to market, create risk that their efforts will prove inadequate. Further, the nature of Internet business demands that considerable detail about their innovative processes and techniques be exposed to competitors, because it must be presented on the websites in order to attract clients. Some of our partner companies also license content from third parties and it is possible that they could become subject to infringement actions based upon the content licensed from those third parties. Our partner companies generally obtain representations as to the origin and ownership of such licensed content; however, this may not adequately protect them. Any claims against our partner companies proprietary rights, with or without merit, could subject our partner companies to costly litigation and the diversion of their technical and management personnel. If our partner companies incur costly litigation and their personnel are not effectively deployed, the expenses and losses incurred by our partner companies will increase and their profits, if any, will decrease.
Our partner companies that publish or distribute content over the Internet may be subject to legal liability.
Some of our partner companies may be subject to legal claims relating to the content on their websites, or the downloading and distribution of this content. Claims could involve matters such as defamation, invasion of privacy and copyright infringement. Providers of Internet products and services have been sued in the past, sometimes successfully, based on the content of material. In addition, some of the content provided by our partner companies on their websites is drawn from data compiled by other parties, including governmental and commercial sources. The data may have errors. If any of our partner companies website content is improperly used or if any of our partner companies supply incorrect information, it could result in unexpected liability. Any of our partner companies that incur this type of unexpected liability may not have insurance to cover the claim or its insurance may not provide sufficient coverage. If our partner companies incur substantial cost because of this type of unexpected liability, the expenses incurred by our partner companies will increase and their profits, if any, will decrease.
Our partner companies computer and communications systems may fail, which may discourage parties from using our partner companies systems.
Some of our partner companies businesses depend on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of their computer and communications hardware systems. Any system interruptions that cause our partner companies websites to be unavailable to Web browsers may reduce the attractiveness of our partner companies Websites to third parties. If third parties are unwilling to use our partner companies websites, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected. Interruptions could result from natural disasters as well as power loss, telecommunications failure and similar events.
Our partner companies businesses may be disrupted if they are unable to upgrade their systems to meet increased demand.
Capacity limits on some of our partner companies technology, transaction processing systems and network hardware and software may be difficult to project and they may not be able to expand and upgrade their systems to meet increased use. As traffic on our partner companies websites continues to increase, they must expand and upgrade their technology, transaction processing systems and network hardware and software. Our partner companies may be unable to accurately project the rate of increase in use of their websites. In addition, our partner companies may not be able to expand and upgrade their systems and network hardware and software capabilities to accommodate increased use of their websites. If our partner companies are unable to appropriately upgrade their systems and network hardware and software, the operations and processes of our partner companies may be disrupted.
33
Our partner companies may be unable to acquire or maintain easily identifiable website addresses or prevent third parties from acquiring website addresses similar to theirs.
Some of our partner companies hold various website addresses relating to their brands. These partner companies may not be able to prevent third parties from acquiring website addresses that are similar to their addresses, which could adversely affect the use by businesses of our partner companies websites. In these instances, our partner companies may not grow as we expect. The acquisition and maintenance of website addresses generally is regulated by governmental agencies and their designees. The regulation of website addresses in the United States and in foreign countries is subject to change. As a result, our partner companies may not be able to acquire or maintain relevant website addresses in all countries where they conduct business. Furthermore, the relationship between regulations governing such addresses and laws protecting trademarks is unclear.
ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to equity price risks on the marketable portion of our equity securities. Our public holdings at December 31, 2001 include equity positions in companies in the Internet industry sector, including: eMerge Interactive; Universal Access; Onvia.com; and Verticalnet, many of which have experienced significant historical volatility in their stock prices. A 20% adverse change in equity prices, based on a sensitivity analysis of our public holdings as of December 31, 2001, would result in an approximate $34.8 million decrease in the fair value of our public holdings. A significant portion of the value of the potential decrease in equity securities, or $6.9 million and $20.3 million, consisted of our holdings in Verticalnet and Universal Access, respectively.
Although we typically do not attempt to reduce or eliminate our market exposure on these securities, particularly with respect to securities of our partner companies, we did enter into a forward contract on 1.8 million shares of our holdings in i2 Technologies. The forward contract limits our exposure to and benefits from price fluctuations in the underlying equity securities. As of December 31, 2001, 1.8 million shares of i2 Technologies remain under this arrangement. In addition, we held 0.5 million shares of i2 Technologies in escrow which have not been hedged. The combined value of the collar forward contract and the underlying hedged securities at December 31, 2001 was $16.1 million. The forward contract matures in 2003. We may enter into similar collar arrangements in the future; particularly with respect to available-for-sale securities, which do not constitute ownership interests in our partner companies.
The carrying values of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. At December 31, 2001, the fair value of convertible subordinated notes is $187.4 million versus a carrying value of $446.1 million. The carrying value of other long-term debt approximates its fair value, as estimated by using discounted future cash flows based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
We entered into a loan agreement which provides for issuances of letters of credit up to $15 million subject to a cash secured borrowing base. As of December 31, 2001, $8.6 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the agreement.
We have historically had very low exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and as such, have not used derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency fluctuation risk.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Internet Capital Group, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Internet Capital Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, stockholders equity and comprehensive income (loss) for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2001. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of a nonsubsidiary investee company (Onvia.com, Inc.) for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Companys equity in net loss of this nonsubsidiary investee was $9,327,340. The financial statements of this nonsubsidiary investee company were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the nonsubsidiary investee company for the year ended December 31, 1999, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Internet Capital Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, and certain provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, as required for goodwill and intangible assets resulting from business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.

Description of the Company
Internet Capital Group, Inc. (the Company) was formed on March 4, 1996. The Company is an Internet holding company actively engaged in business-to-business, or B2B, e-commerce through a network of companies. The Company defines e-commerce as conducting or facilitating business transactions over the Internet. As of December 31, 2001, the Company owned interests in 47 companies engaged in e-commerce, which the Company calls its Partner Companies.
Although the Company refers to the companies in which it has acquired a convertible debt or an equity ownership interest as its Partner Companies and indicates that it has a partnership with these companies, it does not act as an agent or legal representative for any of its Partner Companies, it does not have the power or authority to legally bind any of its Partner Companies and it does not have the types of liabilities in relation to its Partner Companies that a general partner of a partnership would have.
Basis of Presentation
On February 2, 1999, the Company converted from a limited liability company (LLC) to a corporation. All stockholder transactions have been presented as if the conversion occurred on March 4, 1996 (inception).
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows also include the following majority owned subsidiaries for the periods indicated, each of which was consolidated since the date the Company acquired majority control (collectively, the Consolidated Subsidiaries):

Principles of Accounting for Ownership Interests in Partner Companies
The various interests that the Company acquires in its Partner Companies are accounted for under three methods: consolidation, equity and cost. The applicable accounting method is generally determined based on the Companys voting interest in a Partner Company.
Consolidation. Partner Companies in which the Company directly or indirectly owns more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities or those the Company has effective control over are generally accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. Under this method, a Partner Companys balance sheet and results of operations are reflected within the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Participation of other Partner Company stockholders in the net assets and earnings or losses of a consolidated Partner Company is reflected in the caption Minority interest in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statements of Operations. Minority interest adjusts the Companys consolidated results of operations to reflect only the Companys share of the earnings or losses of the consolidated Partner Company. The results of operations and cash flows of a consolidated Partner Company are included through the latest interim period in which the Company owned a greater than 50% direct or indirect voting interest for the entire interim period or otherwise exercised control over the Partner Company. Upon dilution of control below 50%, the accounting method is adjusted to the equity or cost method of accounting, as appropriate, for subsequent periods.
Equity Method. Partner Companies that are not consolidated, but over which the Company exercises significant influence, are 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 Companys 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 Companys holdings in common, preferred and other convertible instruments in the Partner Company. Under the equity method of accounting, a Partner Companys accounts are not reflected within the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Operations; however, the Companys share of the earnings or losses of the Partner Company is reflected in the caption Equity loss share of Partner Company losses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Companys carrying value in an equity method Partner Company is reflected in the caption Ownership interests in Partner Companies in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets.

INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
When the Companys carrying value in an equity method Partner Company is reduced to zero, no further losses are recorded in the Companys consolidated financial statements unless the Company guaranteed obligations of the Partner Company or has committed additional funding. When the Partner Company subsequently reports income, the Company will not record its share of such income until it equals the amount of its share of losses not previously recognized.
Cost Method. Partner Companies not accounted for under the consolidation or the equity method of accounting are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Under this method, the Companys share of the earnings or losses of such companies is not included in the Balance Sheet or Consolidated Statements of Operations. However, cost method Partner Company impairment charges are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. If circumstances suggest that the value of the Partner Company has subsequently recovered, such recovery is not recorded.
When a cost method partner company initially qualifies for use of the equity method, the Companys carrying value is adjusted for the Companys share of the past results of its operations. Therefore, prior losses could significantly decrease the Companys carrying value in that Partner Company at that time.
The Company records its ownership interest in debt securities of Partner Companies accounted for under the cost method at cost because it has the ability and intent to hold these securities until maturity. The Company records its ownership interest in equity securities of Partner Companies accounted for under the cost method at cost, unless these securities have readily determinable fair values based on quoted market prices, in which case these interests are valued at fair value and classified as available-for-sale securities or some other classification in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. In addition to the Companys investments in voting and non-voting equity and debt securities, it also periodically makes advances to its Partner Companies in the form of promissory notes which are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 114, Accounting By Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.
Impairment Charges
The Company continually evaluates the carrying value of its ownership interests in each of its Partner Companies for possible impairment based on achievement of business plan objectives and milestones, the value of each ownership interest in the Partner Company relative to carrying value, the financial condition and prospects of the Partner Company, and other relevant factors. The business plan objectives and milestones the Company considers include, among others, those related to financial performance such as achievement of planned financial results or completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as obtaining key business partnerships or the hiring of key employees.
If an indication of impairment exists with respect to the carrying value of a Partner Company, the Company performs an evaluation by comparing the estimated fair value of the asset with its carrying value. Fair value is determined by estimating the cash flows related to the asset, including estimated proceeds on disposition. If the fair value is less than the carrying value a loss is recorded. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted certain provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements for a discussion of the implementation of SFAS No. 142).
The Company operates in an industry that is rapidly evolving and extremely competitive. Many Internet based businesses, including some with B2B business models, have experienced difficulty in raising additional capital necessary to fund operating losses and continued investments that their management teams believe are necessary to sustain operations. Valuations of public companies operating in the Internet B2B e-commerce sector declined significantly during 2001. In 1999 and 2000 the Company announced several significant acquisitions that were financed principally with shares of the Companys stock and, based on the price of the Companys stock at that time were valued in excess of $1 billion. Based on the Companys periodic review of its Partner Company holdings an impairment charge of $1.3 billion was recorded in 2001 to write off certain Partner Company ownership interests. (see Note 2).

Revenue Recognition
During 2001, 2000 and 1999 the Companys revenues were primarily attributable to AssetTRADE, Breakaway Solutions, CommerceQuest, ICG Commerce, Emptoris, OneCoast, PaperExchange.com and RightWorks for the periods each of these Partner Companies was accounted for under the consolidation method.
ICG Commerce generates revenue from enabled sourcing, full service arrangements and managed eProcurement services. Enabled sourcing revenue includes revenue from procurement consulting services, auction services and sourcing programs and are generally recognized as the services are rendered. In full service arrangements, ICG Commerce assumes all or a part of the procurement function for a customer. Typically in these engagements ICG Commerce is paid a fee based on a percentage of what the customers spend which ICG Commerce manages and may earn additional fees based on achieved savings. Managed eProcurement revenue includes transaction fees, which are typically based on a percentage of the cost of the items purchased through the exchange. Because ICG Commerce does not carry inventory risk, transaction revenue is recorded under the net method. Under this method the net transaction fees and not the gross amounts charged to customers are recorded as revenues. Transaction Fee Revenue is recognized net of allowance for returns at the time of shipment.
RightWorks, CommerceQuest, Emptoris and Logistics.com derive revenue from software license fees and services. Fees from licenses are recognized as revenue upon contract execution, provided all shipment obligations have been met, fees are fixed or determinable, collection is probable, and vendor-specific objective evidence exists to allocate the total fee between all elements of the arrangement. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract. Consulting and training revenue is recognized when the services are performed.
OneCoast is a manufacturer representative agency which solicits sales of gift and home accessories. The company receives commissions from manufacturers based on sale of retail distribution channels. Commission Revenue is recorded upon shipment of goods from the manufacturer to the retailer.
PaperExchange.com operated an e-business marketplace for the pulp and paper industry. PaperExchange.com acted as a principal or as an agent under agreements with certain suppliers. The majority of PaperExchange.coms revenue were the result of arrangements where PaperExchange.com acted as a principal, took ownership and bore the risk of loss. An insignificant amount of revenues had been generated from amounts for which PaperExchange.com acted as an agent. Revenues were recognized where products were shipped.
AssetTRADE operates as an online auction for industrial equipment. Approximately 50% of AssetTRADEs revenues are the result of arrangements where AssetTRADE acts as a principal, takes ownership and bears the risk of loss. Approximately 50% of AssetTRADEs revenue relates to arrangements where AssetTRADE acts as an agent and revenues are reported net of costs.
Breakaway Solutions performed consulting services and revenues were generally recorded as services were rendered.
Implementation fees, which do not relate to software license fees including start-up fees, are deferred and recognized as revenue ratably over the period from their completion to the end of the customer contract.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
46
INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
These estimates include evaluation of the Companys investments in its Partner Companies, investments in marketable securities, asset impairment, revenue recognition, income taxes and commitments and contingencies. Certain amounts recorded to reflect the Companys share of losses of Partner Companies accounted for under the equity method are based on unaudited results of operations of those Partner Companies and may require adjustments in the future when audits of these entities are made final. It is reasonably possible that the Companys accounting estimates with respect to the useful life and ultimate recoverability of our carrying basis including goodwill in Partner Companies could change in the near term and that the effect of such changes on the financial statements could be material. At year end, the recorded amount of carrying basis including goodwill is not impaired, although there can be no assurance that the Companys future results will confirm this assessment, that a significant write-down or write-off of Partner Company carrying basis including goodwill will not be required in the future, or that a significant loss will not be recorded in the future upon the sale of a Partner Company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2001 and 2000 are invested principally in money market accounts and commercial paper.
Available-for-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, based on quoted market prices, with the net unrealized gain or loss reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders equity.
Unrealized gains or losses related to available-for-sale securities are recorded net of deferred taxes subsequent to February 2, 1999, the date the Company converted from an LLC to a corporation.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are debt securities maturing in less than one year and are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Companys interests in public Partner Companies accounted for under the equity method of accounting had a fair value of $154.8 million and $377.0 million as of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $41.0 million and $288.4 million respectively. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value. Long-term debt is carried at cost, which approximates current market rates. The Companys convertible subordinated notes had a fair value of $187.4 million and $141.1 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, versus a carrying value of $446.1 million and $566.3 million. Fair value of the Companys convertible subordinated notes is determined by obtaining thinly traded market quotes from public sources.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments, including cashless collar agreements (Collars) and forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in certain of its investments in publicly held equity securities. The Company has recorded these investments at their estimated fair market value, with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Unrealized gains and losses as a result of these instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations when the underlying hedged item is extinguished or otherwise terminated. The Company does not hold or issue any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to leveraged instruments.
47
INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The credit risks associated with the Companys derivative financial instruments are controlled through the evaluation and monitoring of the creditworthiness of the counter parties. Although the Company may be exposed to losses in the event of nonperformance by the counter parties, the Company does not expect such losses, if any, to be significant.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill and other intangibles, net relates to the Companys acquisitions of consolidated subsidiaries. During the years ended 2001, 2000 and 1999, goodwill was amortized over a period of three years and assessed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121. Effective January 1, 2002, in accordance with SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill and assesses the impairment of goodwill in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142 (see Recent Accounting Pronouncements for a discussion of the implementation of SFAS 142). Goodwill associated with the Companys equity method investments will also no longer be amortized and will continue to be evaluated for impairment under the provisions of APB 18 Equity Method Investments.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists primarily of payments received in advance of revenue being earned under software licensing, software installation, maintenance agreements and various start up fees.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.
Income Taxes
From the Companys inception in March 1996 to February 1999, the Company was not subject to federal and state income taxes. On February 2, 1999, the Company converted from an LLC to a corporation. The Companys accumulated deficit of $8.7 million at that date was reclassed to additional paid-in capital.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share (EPS) is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS includes common stock equivalents (unless anti-dilutive) that would arise from the exercise of stock options and conversion of other convertible securities and is adjusted, if applicable, for the effect on net income (loss) of such transactions.
48
INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
If a consolidated or equity method Partner Company has dilutive options or securities outstanding, diluted net income per share is computed by deducting from income (loss) from continuing operations the income attributable to the potential exercise of the dilutive options or securities of the Partner Company.
Issuances of Stock By Partner Companies
At the time a Partner Company accounted for under the consolidation or equity method of accounting issues its common stock at a price different from the Partner Companys book value per share, the Companys share of the Partner Companys net equity changes and the company adjusts the basis in the Partner Company accordingly. If at that time, the Partner Company is not a newly-formed, non-operating entity, nor a research and development, start-up or development stage company, nor is there question as to the Companys ability to continue in existence, the Company records the change in its share of the Partner Companys net equity as a gain or loss in its Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency for the Companys foreign subsidiaries is the local currency of the country in which it operates. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Revenue, expenses, gains and losses are translated at the average exchange rate in the month those elements are recognized. Translation adjustments, which have not been material to date, are included in other comprehensive income (loss).
Stock Based Compensation
As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, the Company measures compensation cost in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations. Accordingly, no accounting recognition is given to stock options issued to employees that are granted at fair market value until they are exercised. Stock options issued to non-employees are recorded at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes method and the expense is amortized over the vesting period. Upon exercise, net proceeds, including tax benefits realized, are credited to equity.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company reports and displays comprehensive income (loss) and its components in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from non-owner sources. Excluding net income (loss), the Companys sources of comprehensive income (loss) are from net unrealized appreciation on its available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments; such translation adjustments have been negligible to date. Reclassification adjustments result from the recognition in net income of gains or losses that were included in comprehensive income (loss) in prior periods.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. The impact of these changes is not material and did not affect net income (loss).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS No. 141), Business Combinations, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS No. 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.
49
INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141 as of July 1, 2001, and SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any goodwill and any intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life acquired in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 was not amortized, but was evaluated for impairment in accordance with the appropriate pre-SFAS No. 142 accounting literature. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in business combinations completed before July 1, 2001 were amortized through December 31, 2001 in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.
Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company is required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations. The Companys intangible assets having indefinite useful lives will be tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of 2002 with any impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. The goodwill related to consolidated and equity method Partner Companies, which to date has been amortized over a three-year period, will no longer be subject to amortization. Goodwill related to consolidated Partner Companies will be evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 142 by the end of the second quarter of 2002, with any resulting impairment loss being recognized as the effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. Goodwill associated with our equity method Partner Companies will continue to be evaluated for impairment under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 18, Equity Method Investments.
As of January 1, 2002 the date of adoption, the Company has unamortized goodwill and intangibles in the amount of $140.3 million which will be subject to the transition provisions of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill and intangibles was $300.0 million and $553.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
On October 3, 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, (SFAS No. 144) Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, it retains many of the fundamental provisions of that Statement. SFAS No. 144 also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. However, it retains the requirements in Opinion 30 to report separately discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution of owners) or is classified as held for sale.
The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 144 for the quarter ending March 31, 2002. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 for long-lived assets held for use to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements because the impairment assessment under SFAS No. 144 is largely unchanged from SFAS No. 121. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 for assets held for sale or other disposal generally are required to be applied prospectively after the adoption date to newly initiated disposal activities. Therefore, management cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS No. 144 will have on the Companys financial statements.

2. Acquisitions and impairments/dispositions of ownership interests in Partner Companies (Continued)
In June 2000, the Company acquired a controlling interest in RightWorks for 5,892,048 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $754 million ($128 per share) and $22 million in cash. On March 8, 2001, the Company announced the merger of RightWorks with i2 Technologies, Inc. (i2). Based on the closing price of i2 stock at the date of the announcement ($21.43 per share), the Company recorded a non-cash, pre-tax loss of approximately $672.3 million. At March 8, 2001 all of RightWorks long-term net assets were classified as assets held for sale. As of March 31, 2001, i2s stock had declined significantly resulting in revaluation of the assets held for sale and an additional loss of $26.9 million or a total loss on sale of $699.2 million. On August 23, 2001, the merger closed and the Company received approximately 4.5 million shares of i2 common stock.
In May 2000, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Harbour Ring International Holdings Limited, a listed company on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange which was renamed ICG Asia Ltd., for $116.5 million in cash. In June 2001, the Company agreed to sell its stake in ICG Asia to Asian conglomerate Hutchison Whampoa Limited and Reading Investments Limited for $98.6 million, which included proceeds from the sale of the Companys subsidiary in Japan to ICG Asia, and recorded a net loss on sale of $15.2 million.
In September 2000, the Company acquired a controlling interest in PaperExchange.com for 4,864,221 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $165.8 million. In accordance with our accounting policy, the Company determined that it was necessary to record an impairment charge as of December 31, 2000 as PaperExchange.com had incurred substantial losses since it inception, after the Companys acquisition, the plans to develop relationships with an existing paper consortium and exploit relationships with certain strategic partners deteriorated and the CEO resigned. The impairment charge of $128.2 million was based on the estimated current fair value of PaperExchange.com, which was determined by estimating the future discounted cash flows of the Company including the estimated proceeds upon disposition.

Equity Method Companies
The Companys original cost basis of Partner Companies accounted for under the equity method was $859.7 million and $1.7 billion at December 31, 2001 and 2000 respectively. The excess of the Companys carrying value in the ownership interests in these Partner Companies over its share of their net equity resulted in amortization of $141.3 million, $299.3 million and $19.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
In June 2000, the Company acquired a 39% interest in eCredit for 4,655,558 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $424.7 million or approximately $91 per share. The Company increased its interest in eCredit to approximately 42% for an additional $25.6 million in cash and notes through the remainder of 2000. In accordance with its accounting policy, the Company determined that it was necessary to record an impairment charge of $367.5 million as of March 31, 2001. The impairment charge was based on the estimated current fair value of eCredit, which was determined by estimating the Companys future discounted cash flows related to eCredit including the estimated proceeds upon disposition.
In December 1999, the Company acquired an ownership interest in MetalSite for the Companys common stock valued at $150.2 million (approximately $176 per share) and cash of $30 million. During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company determined that there was an other than temporary decline in the fair value of MetalSite and recorded an impairment charge of $112.7 million, in accordance with its accounting policy.
In addition to the equity impairments noted above, the Company also recorded impairment charges during the year ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 of $73 million and $45 million, respectively related to 13 other equity method Partner Companies of which 11 have been subsequently disposed of or ceased operations.

The Equity Collars were terminated in December 2000, March 2001 and December 2001. The Equity Collars and forward contract limit the Companys exposure to and benefits from price fluctuations in the underlying equity securities. The Company has designated the Equity Collars and forward contract as cash flow hedges and recorded the Equity Collars and forward contract at their estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and changes due to the ineffectiveness of these instruments in Other income (loss), net.

As part of the Companys sale of certain partner companies, the Companys warrants in these companies were sold, which had a value of $6.4 million and were included in the calculation of the Companys loss on sale. The estimated fair value of warrants held in Partner Companies was approximately $2.1 million at December 31, 2001.

8. Segment Information
The Companys reportable segments using the management approach under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of a Business Enterprise and Related Information consist of two operating segments, the Core Operating Segment and the Emerging Operating Segment. The Core Operating Segment includes those Partner Companies in which the Companys management takes an active role in providing strategic direction and management assistance. The Emerging Operating Segment includes investments in Partner Companies that are managed to provide the greatest near term stockholder value. The Companys and Partner Companies operations were principally in the United States of America during all periods presented.
In periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2001, the Companys segments were composed of Partner Company Operations and General ICG Operations. All prior periods have been restated to reflect this change in the composition of the Companys reporting segments. The development of the Core and Emerging Segments was based on Partner Companies in the Companys network in the fourth quarter of 2001. As a result, the Partner Companies included within the segments are consistently the same 47 companies for 2001, 2000 and 1999. The dispositions column includes the results for Partner Companies which were disposed of before the new segments were developed. The most significant individual Partner Companies revenues and net loss related to these dispositions were as follows: RightWorks, revenues of $15.2 million and $19.4 million and net losses of $135.8 million and $227.6 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively; PaperExchange.com, revenues of $4.4 million and $12.6 million and net losses of $15.6 million and $41.1 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively; and Breakaway Solutions, revenues of $14.7 million in 1999 and net losses of $60.9 million, $86.2 million, and $10.6 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.
The following summarizes the unaudited selected financial information related to the Companys segments. Each segment includes the results of the Companys Consolidated Partner Companies and records the Companys share of earnings and losses of Partner Companies accounted for under the equity method of accounting and captures our basis in the assets of all of the Companys Partner Companies. All significant intersegment activity has been eliminated and assets are either owned by or allocated to each operating segment. The measure of segment net loss reviewed by the Companys chief operating decision maker does not include items such as impairment related charges, income taxes, extraordinary items and accounting changes, which are reflected as other reconciling items in the information which follows.

10. Stockholders Equity
During 2000, the Company increased its authorized capital stock to 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share and are entitled to dividends as declared.
Dividends may be restricted by the inability to liquidate ownership interests in Partner Companies to fund cash dividends and may be subject to the preferential rights of the holders of the Companys preferred stock, if any. No cash dividends have been declared to date and may not be declared for the foreseeable future.
The Company may establish one or more classes or series of preferred stock. The holders of the preferred stock may be entitled to preferences over common stock or shareholders with respect to dividends, liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, as established by the Companys Board of Directors. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock were authorized; no shares have been issued.
Certain stockholders were granted registration rights and piggyback rights which were effective after completion of the Companys public offering in August 1999.
Stockholders equity contributions are recorded when received. The Company issued 31,980,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $32 million in 1999. These shares had been subscribed at December 31, 1998.
Stockholder Rights Plan
During 2000 the Company enacted a stockholder rights plan. Under the stockholder rights plan, preferred stock purchase rights were distributed as a dividend at the rate of one right for each share of Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on December 6, 2000. Each right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one ten-thousandth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $100 per right. The rights attached to the Companys Common Stock are not currently exercisable. The rights become exercisable and will separate from the Common Stock (1) ten calendar days after a person or group acquires, or announces the intent to acquire, beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Companys Common Stock, or (2) ten business days (or a later date following such announcement if determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with the plan) after the announcement of a tender offer or an exchange offer to acquire 15% or more of the Companys outstanding Common Stock.
The rights are redeemable for $.0001 per right at the option of the Companys Board of Directors at any time prior to the close of business on the tenth business day after the announcement of a stock acquisition event described above. If not redeemed, the rights will expire on November 22, 2010. Prior to the date upon which the rights would become exercisable under the plan, the Companys outstanding stock certificates will represent both the shares of Common Stock and the rights, and the rights will trade only with the shares of common stock.
Generally, if the rights become exercisable, then each stockholder, other than the acquirer, is entitled to purchase, for the purchase price, that number of shares of Common Stock that, at the time of the transaction, will have a market value of three times the exercise price of the rights. In addition, if, after the rights become exercisable, the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination, or 50% or more of its assets or earning power are sold, each right will entitle the holder to purchase, at the exercise price of the rights, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company that, at the time of the transaction, will have a market value of three times the exercise price of the rights.
Common Stock Issued for Acquisitions
During 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company issued 2,664,904, 22,584,094 and 1,886,539 shares of common stock for acquisitions of Partner Companies. These transactions resulted in recording increases to additional paid-in capital of $2.1 million, $1.6 billion and $172 million, respectively (see Note 2).

Secondary Offering
In December 1999, the Company completed its secondary offering of common stock and convertible subordinated notes. The Company sold 6,900,000 shares of its common stock at $108.00 per share. Just prior to and concurrent with the secondary offering, the Company completed private placements of 609,533 shares and 648,147 shares of its common stock at $82.02 and $108.00 per share, respectively. Net proceeds to the Company from these transactions aggregated $831.0 million (net of underwriters commission and offering expenses of $34.2 million).
Initial Public Offering
In August 1999, the Company completed its initial public offering (IPO) of 30,620,000 shares of its common stock at $6.00 per share. Concurrently, the Company completed a private placement of 7,500,000 shares of its common stock at $6.00 per share. Net proceeds to the Company from these transactions aggregated $209.5 million (net of underwriters commission and offering expenses of $19.2 million).
Convertible Subordinated Notes
In May 1999, the Company issued $90 million of convertible subordinated notes, which converted to 14,999,732 shares of the Companys common stock upon the completion of the Companys initial public offering in August 1999. In connection with the conversion of these notes, all accrued interest was waived and reclassed to additional paid-in-capital and the Company issued 3,000,000 warrants to purchase the Companys common stock at $6 per share (the IPO price) through May 2002, which, if exercised, will increase additional paid-in capital. The warrants may also be exercised by a cashless exercise or net issue, whereby a portion of the warrants are forfeited based upon an average fair market price in place of cash. Through December 31, 2001, 1,620,754 shares of the Companys common stock were issued in connection with warrant exercises.
Tax Distribution
In March 1999 the Company made a distribution of $10.7 million to former LLC members in accordance with the LLC agreements to satisfy the members tax liabilities.
11. Stock Option Plans
Incentive or non-qualified stock options may be granted to Company employees, directors and consultants under the Membership Profit Interest Plan (MPI), the 1999 Equity Compensation Plan (1999 Plan) or the Logistics Plan (Logistics Plan) (together the Plans). Generally, the grants vest over a two to five year period and expire eight to ten years after the date of grant. At December 31, 2001, the Company reserved approximately 3.5 million shares of common stock under the Plans, for possible future issuance. Most Partner Companies also maintain their own stock option plans.

In addition to the above stock option grants in 2001, the Company issued 9,135,600 shares of restricted stock to employees during 2001. Recipients of restricted stock do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares, have the right to vote all shares subject to such grant, and receive all dividends with respect to such shares, whether or not the shares have vested. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight line basis over the vesting period. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the company recorded $9.7 million of compensation expense related to the grant of restricted stock to employees. The restricted stock is subject to approximate pro-rata vesting on May 12, 2002 and August 13, 2003. The value of the restricted stock at the date of grant of $16.1 million was recorded as deferred compensation and is being amortized over the vesting period. Additionally, the Company committed to grant 1,235,000 shares of restricted stock that were not issued as of December 31, 2001.
In April through July 1999 the Companys Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors authorized the acceptance of full recourse promissory notes totaling $79.8 million from its employees and a director as consideration for exercising all or a portion of their vested and unvested stock options issued under the 1999 Equity Compensation Plan (a total of 35,991,500 shares of common stock were issued in connection with these exercises). As of December 31, 2001 $31.2 million in notes receivable from employees is recorded as a reduction of Stockholders Equity to offset the increase in additional paid-in

capital. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase unvested shares under certain circumstances. The exercise of unvested options by the employees and director and the acceptance of promissory notes by the Company was in accordance with the terms of the Companys equity compensation plans and related option agreements. The Companys Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors also approved loaning employees the funds, under the terms of full recourse promissory notes, to pay the income taxes that become due in connection with the option exercises. During December 2001, the Companys Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved modifying the promissory notes to partial recourse, modifying the interest rates to current market rates and accelerating the vesting on the underlying options.
During 2001 and 2000, the Company exercised its rights to repurchase a total of 11,763,650 shares at cost in exchange for cancellation of the associated promissory notes totaling $30.8 million upon the termination of the employee noteholders.
Included in the 2000 option grants are 188,750 stock options to non-employees. The fair value of these options of $6.7 million was recorded as deferred compensation in 2000 and is being amortized over the vesting period. The fair value of these options was determined using the Black-Scholes method assuming a volatility range of approximately 100-150%, a dividend yield of 0%, a contractual option life of 10 years, and risk-free interest rates ranging from 5.4-5.7%.
Included in the 1999 option grants are 1,636,000 stock options to non-employees. The fair value of these options of $3.7 million was recorded as deferred compensation in 1999 and is being amortized over the vesting period. The fair value of these options was determined using the Black-Scholes method assuming a volatility of 80%, a dividend yield of 0%, an average expected option life of 5 years, and a risk-free interest rate of 5.2%.
Included in the 1999 option grants are 23,047,500 stock options to employees issued below market value on the date of grant. The aggregate difference between the strike price and market value on the date of grant, for these options granted, of $12.7 million was recorded as deferred compensation in 1999 and is being amortized over the vesting period.
The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations to account for its stock option plans. Had compensation cost been recognized pursuant to SFAS 123, the Companys net income (loss) would have been as follows (unaudited):

At December 31, 2001, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of $289.4 million which may be used to offset future taxable income. Approximately $121.4 million of these carry forwards are subject to limitations on their utilization due to ownership changes experienced by certain consolidated Partner Companies. These carry forwards expire between 2008 and 2021.
A valuation allowance has been provided for the Companys net deferred tax asset as management believes, after evaluating all positive and negative evidence, historical and prospective, that it is more likely than not that these benefits will not be realized.

16. Other Income (Continued)
Due to Onvia.coms stock repurchase program in March 2001, the Companys interest in Onvia.com increased to greater than 20%. On the date the Companys ownership interest increased to greater than 20%, the Company transferred its interest in Onvia.com from available-for-sale securities to ownership interests in Partner Companies, resulting in the recognition of a loss of $27.4 million.
During the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company sold its ownership interests in various Partner Companies in exchange for cash, available-for-sale securities, additional ownership interest in existing Partner Companies and contingent consideration. Significant gains resulted from the sale of Tradex in exchange for 2.9 million shares of Ariba, Inc. ($449.3 million in 2000), the sale of Centrimed for $30.7 million in cash and other consideration ($3.1 million in 2001 and $25.3 million in 2000), the sale of Courtlink for $14.6 million in cash and $2.9 million in contingent consideration ($14.3 million in 2001), the sale of Servicesoft in exchange for 1.3 million shares of Broadbase Software ($6.5 million in 2000) and the sale of buy.co.uk Limited in exchange for additional ownership in an existing Partner Company ($7.3 million in 2001).
The Companys share of net equity of Verticalnet, Breakaway Solutions, Universal Access and Onvia.com changed as a result of the Partner Company issuing additional shares for acquisitions and other purposes. These increases/decreases adjusted the Companys carrying values and resulted in non-operating gains/losses for the periods indicated in accordance with the companys accounting policy. Verticalnets issuances resulted in a $6.9 million loss in 2001, a $227.9 million gain in 2000 and a $50.7 million gain in 1999. Universal Access issuances resulted in a $7.5 million gain in 2001 and a $0.8 million gain in 2000. Onvias issuances resulted in a $4.8 million gain in 2001. Breakaway Solutions issuances resulted in a $24.3 million gain in 2000 and a $17.3 million gain in 1999.
17. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of the ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries.
As of December 31, 2001, the Company guaranteed $24.3 million of bank loan and other commitments, in connection with its ownership interests in certain Partner Companies, and has committed capital of $38.7 million to be funded subsequent to December 31, 2001.
The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries lease their facilities under operating lease agreements expiring through 2006. Future minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2001 under the leases are as follows:

17. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
Included in the above lease agreements are leases regarding one Partner Company that leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases expiring through February 2006. Additionally, the Partner Company leases equipment and automobiles to lease to customers. When leasing on behalf of its customers, the company simultaneously enters into a lease with the vendor and a lease with the customer (Pass-through leases). Pass-through lease income and expenses are recorded on a net basis as revenue in the accompanying statements of operations. The Partner Company had $28.1 million in future minimum pass-through leases which expire in 2004.
Because many of its Partner Companies are not majority-owned subsidiaries, changes in the value of the Companys interests in Partner Companies and the income or loss and revenue attributable to them could require the Company to register under the Investment Company Act unless it takes action to avoid being required to register. However, the Company believes it can take steps to avoid being required to register under the Investment Company Act, which would not adversely affect its operations or stockholder value.
If a certain consolidated Partner Company achieves a fair market value in excess of $1.0 billion, the Company will be obligated to pay, in cash or the Companys common stock at the Companys option, 4% of the Partner Companys fair market value in excess of $1.0 billion, up to a maximum of $70 million of additional purchase price consideration to a venture capital firm. The Company and a significant stockholder of the Company are limited partners of this venture capital firm. This contingent obligation expires on the earlier to occur of May 31, 2005 or an unaffiliated company sale if the valuation milestone is not achieved.

19. Pro Forma Information (Unaudited)
On February 2, 1999, the Company converted from an LLC to a C corporation. The Company became subject to corporate federal and state income taxes concurrent with the conversion to a C corporation. The accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 include pro forma information with respect to income taxes, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share assuming the Company had been taxed as a C corporation since January 1, 1999. The unaudited pro forma information provided does not necessarily reflect the income taxes, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share that would have occurred had the Company been taxed as a C corporation since January 1, 1998.
The Companys 1999 pro forma effective tax rate of 30% differed from the federal statutory rate of 35% principally due to non-deductible permanent differences.
