On August 30, 2005, we acquired Shopping.com Ltd., or
Shopping.com, for a purchase price of approximately
$685.3 million. We acquired all outstanding shares of
Shopping.com’s common stock for $21 per share in cash
totaling approximately $634.5 million and we assumed
Shopping.com’s outstanding common stock options, valued at
approximately $43.2 million. The total purchase price also
includes approximately $7.6 million in estimated
acquisition-related expenses. Shopping.com is a provider of
online comparison shopping and consumer reviews. This
acquisition is consistent with our strategy of growing our
global online marketplaces and we believe that it will create a
premier online shopping experience for individuals and
businesses of all sizes. We accounted for the acquisition as a
taxable purchase transaction and, accordingly, the purchase
price has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their
respective estimated fair values on the acquisition date.
The intrinsic value of Shopping.com’s unvested common stock
options assumed in the acquisition totaled approximately
$16.8 million and was recorded as unearned stock-based
compensation. The unearned stock-based compensation relating to
the unvested options is being amortized on an accelerated basis
over the remaining vesting period of less than one year to four
years, consistent with the graded vesting approach under FASB
Interpretation No. 28.
The estimated useful economic lives of the identifiable
intangible assets acquired in the Shopping.com acquisition are
four years for the customer base and five years for the trade
names and the developed technology.
