Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 Description of Transaction

On October 25, 2007, CNET Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with AG.com, Inc. (“AG”), a subsidiary of American Greetings Corporation pursuant to which AG purchased substantially all of the assets, which included certain fixed assets and prepaid expenses, and assumed certain liabilities of the Company’s Webshots business unit, which was a reporting unit within the Company’s U.S. Media reporting segment, for approximately $45 million in cash (the “Asset Sale”). The Asset Sale was completed on October 25, 2007. Concurrent with the Asset Sale, CNET Networks will provide certain transition services to AG for an interim period.

NOTE 2 Pro Forma Adjustments

On August 2, 2004, CNET Networks acquired Twofold Photos, Inc. which operated the website www.Webshots.com (Twofold Photos, Inc. and Webshots are collectively referred to as “Webshots”). The results of operations of Webshots have been included in CNET Networks’ historical statements of operations from the date of acquisition.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared to reflect the effect of the Asset Sale on the Company’s historical results of operations and financial position. The Company has reported unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, which presents the Company’s results of operations and financial position as if the Asset Sale had occurred on January 1, 2007. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the Asset Sale as if the transaction had occurred on September 30, 2007.

These pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The adjustments are described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and are set forth in the "Pro Forma Adjustments” column.

The pro forma adjustments are as follows:

 

a. These adjustments are recorded to eliminate the revenues and operating expenses which CNET Networks believes are directly attributable to the Webshots asset sale and will not continue after completion of the transaction.

 

b. To record the cash consideration received from AG.

 

c. To eliminate the assets sold to AG.

 

d. To eliminate the goodwill related to the Webshots business.

 

e. To eliminate liabilities assumed by AG and to accrue for the estimated transaction costs associated with the sale (in thousands).

 

Liabilities assumed

     $(2,264)

Accrued transaction costs

     414
      
     $(1,850)
      


f. To record the preliminary gain on the sale of the Webshots business as if the transaction had been consummated on September 30, 2007 (in thousands).
