As a result of that sale, Channel Intelligence is presented as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the relevant periods and is not included in the table above; CIML (excluding Channel Intelligence) continues to be included in continuing operations in Actua’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the period for which it was consolidated.
