Non-GAAP Financial Measures Non-GAAP net income (loss), non-gaap net income (loss) per diluted share and non-gaap cash flows from operations are non-gaap financial measures and have no standardized measurement prescribed by GAAP. When referring to non-gaap financial measures, the term adjusted is used interchangeably with the term non-gaap by Actua s management and the two have identical definitions. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Actua, including acquired businesses deferred revenue and excluding share-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, impairment-related and other costs, transaction expenses, other (income) loss, net, equity loss current non-cash income tax benefit on discrete item, loss (income) from discontinued operations and impact of non-controlling interest for discontinued operations. Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share is non-gaap net income (loss) divided by (1) GAAP shares, including the any impact of incremental dilutive securities (in the case of income) or (2) GAAP shares, excluding any impact of incremental dilutive securities (in the case of loss). Non-GAAP cash flows from operations is GAAP cash flows from operations excluding cash amounts associated with impairment related and other costs and transaction expenses.

Please note the following: FolioDymanix s results are not included BOLT became a consolidated company on December 27, 2012. Actua has deemed BOLT s operating results for the final four days of 2012 insignificant for consolidation purposes. Therefore, BOLT is included in equity loss for all 2012 periods presented, and BOLT s results are presented in Actua s consolidated results beginning on January 1, 2013. BOLT became a consolidated company on December 27, 2012. Actua has deemed BOLT s operating results for the final four days of 2012 insignificant for consolidation purposes. Therefore, BOLT is included in equity loss for all 2012 periods presented, and BOLT s results are presented in Actua s consolidated results beginning on January 1, 2013. MSDSonline's results are not included in Actua's results for periods prior to Q2 2012 as Actua did not acquire an ownership stake in MSDSonline until March 30, 2012. CIML s continuing operating results are included in Actua s consolidated results from July 11, 2012 to February 20, 2013 as Actua owned 51.6% and controlled CIML during this period. CIML was an equity method company for periods prior to July 11, 2012 and, accordingly, was included in the equity loss line item. Actua s ownership in CIML was diluted as part of the Channel Intelligence sale described below, and CIML became an equity method company on February 20, 2013 for periods going forward. Channel Intelligence, Investor Force and Procurian were sold in Q1, Q1 and Q4 2013, respectively, and are presented as discontinued operations under GAAP. Their results are presented within our non-gaap measures as Loss (income) from discontinued operations and impact of noncontrolling interest for discontinued operations. Actua's management believes these non-gaap financial measures provide useful information to investors and potential investors that enables them to view Actua s business in a similar manner as Actua's management and provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Actua s operating results as they exclude amounts that Actua excludes as part of its monitoring of operating results and assessment of the performance of its business. 2015 Actua Corporation / All Rights Reserved / 3
