Related Party Transactions
Prior to the Spin-Off, Liberty, QVC, Inc. (“QVC”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty, and other subsidiaries and equity investments of Liberty were related parties of CommerceHub for GAAP purposes and related persons of CommerceHub for purposes of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, because this report includes the three months ended March 31, 2016, which was prior to the Spin-Off, we have disclosed activities with these entities during this period. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and future periods that do not include pre-Spin-Off periods, based on current facts and circumstances, we do not believe Liberty, QVC or other subsidiaries or equity investments of Liberty are related parties or related persons of CommerceHub, but we will continue to monitor and evaluate these relationships and other potential relationships with related parties and/or related persons.
Transactions with QVC
We provide our solutions to QVC in the ordinary course of business. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, Total Program Revenue with QVC accounted for approximately 7% of total revenue. We had accounts receivable due from QVC of approximately $784 thousand at December 31, 2016.
Transactions with Liberty
In previous periods, we had outstanding a promissory note as a lender to Liberty, presented as note receivable—Parent on the consolidated balance sheets. This note carried an interest rate based on one-year LIBOR plus 100 basis points. In the three months ended March 31, 2016, we earned interest of $166 thousand on this promissory note. During the second quarter of 2016, Liberty fully repaid the $36.4 million outstanding under this promissory note, including accumulated interest of $2.4 million.
