Allocation of the purchase consideration for business combinations completed in 2008 is summarized as
follows (in thousands):
Purchase Consideration
Net Tangible Assets
Acquired/(Liabilities
Assumed)
Purchased Intangible
Assets Goodwill
Bill Me Later .................. $ 914,605 $ 26,097 $199,600 $ 688,908
Den Blå Avis and BilBasen ...... 394,098 (31,612) 144,100 281,610
Other ........................ 178,560 (6,809) 39,417 145,952
Total .................... $1,487,263 $(12,324) $383,117 $1,116,470
The purchase consideration for each acquisition was allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining
unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired
has been determined primarily by using valuation methods that discount expected future cash flows to present
value using estimates and assumptions determined by management. Purchased identifiable intangible assets are
amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective useful lives.
The consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each business from the date of
acquisition. Pro forma results of operations for acquisitions completed during 2008, 2009 and 2010 have not been
presented because the effects of the acquisitions, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our
financial results.
