NOTE 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION



GSI Commerce, Inc. (GSI or the Company), a Delaware corporation, is a leading provider of e-commerce solutions that enable
retailers, branded manufacturers, entertainment companies and professional sports organizations to operate e-commerce businesses. The Company began its e-commerce business in 1999 and initially targeted the sporting goods category. Since fiscal
2001, the Company expanded into six additional categories: apparel, health and beauty, consumer electronics, entertainment, home, and jewelry and luxury items. The Company provides solutions for its partners through its integrated e-commerce
platform, which is comprised of three components  core technology, supporting infrastructure and partner services. Through the Companys integrated e-commerce platform, it provides Web site administration, Web infrastructure and hosting,
business intelligence, an e-commerce engine, order management, fulfillment, drop shipping, customer service, buying, creative design, Web site usability, testing and enhancements, channel integration, business-to-business (B-to-B) services, content
development and imaging, e-commerce strategy, online marketing and customer relationship management (CRM). The Company derives virtually all of its revenues from sales of products by the Company through its partners e-commerce businesses and
service fees earned by the Company in connection with the development and operation of its partners e-commerce businesses.



The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.



The accompanying financial information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods reported have been included. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily
indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.



This
quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys audited financial statements presented in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 17, 2005, as amended by Form 10-K/Amendment No.1 filed with the SEC on May 2, 2005 and further amended by Form 10-K/Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on May 6, 2005.



NOTE 2ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Basis of Consolidation:The financial statements presented include
the accounts of the Company and all wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions among consolidated entities have been eliminated.



Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.



Fair Values:The estimated fair value amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements have been determined by the Company using
available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts
that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Such fair value estimates are based on pertinent
information available to management as of January 1, 2005 and July 2, 2005, and have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these consolidated financial statements since such dates.



Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates their current market value.

Marketable Securities: Marketable securities, which consist of investments in various debt
securities, are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of stockholders equity. The Company does not intend to hold its marketable securities for more than one
year from the most recent balance sheet date and has therefore classified them as a current asset. All investments with original maturities of greater than 90 days are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The Company determines the appropriate classification at the time of purchase. At January 1, 2005, and July 2, 2005, the Company held $39,700
and $55,840, respectively, of investments in auction rate securities classified as available-for-sale. Investments in these securities are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value due to their variable interest rates, which reset
approximately every 30 to 45 days. Despite the long-term nature of their stated contractual maturities, there is a ready liquid market for these securities based on the interest reset mechanism. As a result, there are no cumulative gross realized or
unrealized holding gains or (losses) from our auction rate securities. All income generated from these marketable securities was recorded as interest income. As of January 1, 2005, the Company recorded net unrealized losses on its marketable
securities, other than auction rate securities, of $104. As of July 2, 2005, the Company recorded net unrealized losses on its marketable securities, other than auction rate securities, of $184. Realized gains or losses and declines in value judged
to be other than temporary, if any, on available-for-sale securities are reported in other income or loss.



Inventory:Inventory, primarily consisting of sporting goods, consumer electronics and licensed entertainment products, is valued at the lower of
cost (determined using the weighted average method) or market. Inherent in this valuation are significant management judgments and estimates, including among others, assessments concerning obsolescence and shrinkage rates. Based upon the methodology
underlying these judgments and estimates, which is applied consistently from period to period, the Company records a valuation allowance to adjust the carrying amount of its inventory.



Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Costs incurred to
develop internal-use computer software during the application development stage, including those relating to developing partners Web sites, generally are capitalized. Costs of enhancements to internal-use computer software are also
capitalized, provided that these enhancements result in additional functionality. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally:



| |  |  | Three years for office equipment;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | Three to four years for computer hardware and software;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Seven years for furniture and fulfillment center equipment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The lesser of fifteen years or lease term for leasehold improvements;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fifteen years for building improvements; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Thirty years for buildings
| | - |  | --------------------------



Upon retirement or other disposition of these assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or
loss, if any, is recognized as a gain or loss on disposition of the assets in other income/expense. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.



Effective December 30, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets. SFAS No. 142 changed the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under an impairment-only approach, goodwill and certain intangibles are not amortized into results of operations but instead,
are reviewed for impairment and written down and charged to results of operations only in the periods in which the recorded value of goodwill and certain intangibles is more than their fair value. The Company performed an annual impairment test of
its recorded goodwill as of January 1, 2005, and found no instances of impairment.



Long-Lived Assets: The ability to realize long-lived assets is evaluated periodically as events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover their carrying amount. Such evaluation is based on
various analyses, including undiscounted cash flow and profitability projections that incorporate, as applicable, the impact on the existing business. The analyses necessarily involve significant management judgment. Any impairment loss, if
indicated, is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

Other Equity Investments: Other equity investments consist of 824,594 shares of Odimo
Incorporated (Odimo) common stock, which was converted from Series C and Series D preferred stock when Odimo completed an initial public offering through the issuance of 3,125,000 shares of its common stock in February 2005. The Company
accounts for the investment in accordance with SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Prior to the initial public offering, the original cost of the Companys investment was determined based
on the fair value of the investment at the time of its acquisition. At the time, an observable market price did not exist for non-marketable securities. In order to determine the fair value of the investment in Odimo, the Company obtained an
independent, third-party valuation. The valuation incorporated a variety of methodologies to estimate fair value, including comparing the security with securities of publicly traded companies in similar lines of business, applying price multiples to
estimated future operating results for Odimo and estimating discounted cash flows. Factors affecting the valuation included restrictions on control and marketability of Odimos equity securities and other information available to the Company,
such as the Companys knowledge of the industry and knowledge of specific information about Odimo. Using this valuation, the Company determined the estimated fair value of the investment to be approximately $2,847 as of January 1, 2005. During
the first quarter of 2005, the Company exercised warrants related to Odimo for $136, which represented 119,272 shares of common stock. The fair value of the Odimo investment as of July 2, 2005 was $4,535, which was determined by the current market
price of the common stock of Odimo on July 2, 2005. This resulted in an unrealized gain of $1,552 for the six-month period ended July 2, 2005, which is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as a component of stockholders equity.



Other Assets, Net: Other assets, net consists primarily
of deferred partner revenue share charges, resulting from the exercise of a right to receive 1,600,000 shares of the Companys common stock in lieu of future cash partner revenue share payments. Deferred partner revenue share charges were
$10,097 as of January 1, 2005 and $8,934 for the six-month period ended July 2, 2005, and are being amortized as stock-based compensation expense as the partner revenue share expense is incurred. The partner revenue share expense incurred is based
on actual revenues recognized in a given period and the imputed partner revenue share percentage, which is based on the value of the Companys common stock that was issued upon exercise of the right. Stock-based compensation expense related to
the amortization of deferred partner revenue share charges was $332 and $692 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 3, 2004, and $675 and $1,163 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 2, 2005.



In addition, other assets include the underwriters discount and debt
issuance costs of $2,520 as of July 2, 2005, relating to the June 1, 2005 public offering of $57,500 aggregate principal amount of 3% convertible unsecured obligations due June 1, 2025. The underwriters discount and debt issuance costs are
being amortized using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. Total amortization related to the underwriters discount and debt issuance costs was $43 for the three-month period ended July 2, 2005.



Deferred Revenue:Deferred revenue consists primarily of fees paid
in advance to the Company under agreements to manage some aspects of certain partners e-commerce businesses, including fulfillment technology and customer service, existing at the balance sheet date. Deferred revenue also consists of amounts
received from the sale of gift certificates redeemable through the Companys partners e-commerce businesses.



Net Revenues from Product Sales: Net revenues from product sales are derived from the sale of products by the Company through our partners
e-commerce businesses. Net revenues from product sales are net of allowances for returns and discounts and include outbound shipping charges and other product related services such as gift wrapping and monogramming.



The Company recognizes revenues from product sales when the following revenue
recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.



The Company recognizes revenue from product sales, net of estimated returns based on historical experience and current
trends, upon shipment of products to customers. The Company ships the majority of products from its fulfillment centers in Louisville, KY and Shepherdsville, KY. The Company also relies upon certain vendors to ship products directly to customers on
its behalf. The Company acts as principal in these transactions, as orders are initiated directly through the e-commerce businesses that the Company operates, the Company takes title to the goods at the shipping point and has the economic risk
related to collection, customer service and returns.

The Company considers the criteria presented in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No.
99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, in determining the appropriate revenue recognition treatment. Generally, when the Company is the primary obligor in a transaction, has general inventory risk,
establishes the selling price, has discretion in supplier selection, has physical loss inventory risk after order placement or during shipping, and has credit risk, or has several but not all of these indicators, the Company records revenue gross as
a principal.



The Company pays to its partners a percentage of
the revenues generated from the sale of products sold by the Company through the e-commerce businesses that the Company operates in exchange for the rights to use their brand names and the promotions and advertising that its partners agree to
provide. The Company refers to these royalty payments as partner revenue share charges. The Company has considered the revenue reduction provisions addressed in EITF No. 00-25, Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to
a Reseller of the Vendors Products, which was codified in EITF No. 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendors Products, and believes that the payment of partner
revenue share charges, or the issuance of warrants or stock in lieu of cash partner revenue share charges, to its partners should not result in any reduction of revenues. EITF No. 00-25 addresses consideration paid to parties along a distribution
chain. The Company purchases merchandise from its vendors, at its discretion, and is responsible for paying those vendors. The amounts purchased and the prices paid to the Companys vendors are not in any way impacted by the revenue share
provisions of the Companys agreements with its partners. Accordingly, the Companys partners and vendors are not linked in the distribution chain and the Company believes that the provisions of EITF No. 00-25 do not apply.



Service Fee Revenues: The Company derives its service fee revenues
from service fees earned by it in connection with the development and operation of its partners e-commerce businesses. Service fees primarily consist of variable fees based on the value of merchandise sold or gross profit generated through its
partners e-commerce businesses. To a lesser extent, service fees include fixed periodic payments by partners for the development and operation of their e-commerce businesses and fees related to the provision of marketing, design, development
and other services. The Company recognizes revenues from services provided when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and
collectibility is reasonably assured. If the Company receives payments for services in advance, these amounts are deferred and then recognized over the service period. Cost of service fee revenues includes the cost of products sold and inbound
freight related to those products, as well as outbound shipping and handling costs, other than those related to promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling which would be included in sales and marketing expense. The Company does
not specifically record Cost of service fee revenues as these costs are incurred by the Companys fee-based partners rather than by the Company. Operating expenses relating to service fee revenues consist primarily of personnel and
other costs associated with the Companys engineering, production and creative departments which are included in product development expense, as well as fulfillment costs and personnel and other costs associated with its marketing and customer
service departments which are included in sales and marketing expense.



Cost of Revenues: Cost of revenues consist of cost of revenues from product sales and cost of service fee revenues. Cost of revenues from product sales include the cost of products sold and inbound freight related to these products,
as well as outbound shipping and handling costs, other than those related to promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling which are included in sales and marketing expense. We specifically do not record cost of service fee revenue.
The cost of the sales of the merchandise on which we earn service fees are incurred by our service-fee partners because they are the owners and sellers of the merchandise.



Sales and Marketing: Sales and marketing expenses include fulfillment costs, customer service costs, credit card
fees, net partner revenue share charges, net advertising and promotional expenses incurred by us on behalf of the Companys partners e-commerce businesses, and payroll related to the buying, business management and marketing functions of
the company. Net partner revenue share charges are royalty payments made to the Companys partners in exchange for the use of their brands, the promotion of its partners URLs, Web sites and toll-free telephone numbers in their marketing
and communications materials, the implementation of programs to provide incentives to customers to shop through the e-commerce businesses that the Company operates for its partners and other programs and services provided to the customers of the
e-commerce businesses that the Company operates for its partners, net of amounts reimbursed to the Company by its partners. Net advertising and promotional expenses include promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling costs and are
net of amounts reimbursed to the Company by its partners. Partner revenue share charges were $2,323 and $5,328 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 3, 2004, and $2,687 and $4,493 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 2, 2005.

The Company defines shipping and handling costs as only those costs incurred for a third-party
shipper to transport products to the customer and these costs are included in cost of revenues from product sales. In some instances, shipping and handling costs exceed shipping charges to the customer and are subsidized by the Company.
Additionally, the Company selectively offers promotional free shipping whereby it ships merchandise to customers free of all shipping and handling charges. The cost of promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling was $473 and
$1,176 for the three-and six-month periods ended July 3, 2004, and $954 and $1,826 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 2, 2005, and was charged to sales and marketing expense.



The Company defines fulfillment costs as personnel, occupancy and other costs associated with its Kentucky fulfillment
center, personnel and other costs associated with its logistical support and vendor operations departments and third-party warehouse and fulfillment services costs. Fulfillment costs were $4,731 and $9,695 for the three- and six-month periods ended
July 3, 2004, and $6,224 and $13,000 for the three- and six-month period ended July 2, 2005, and are included in sales and marketing expense.



The Company expenses the cost of advertising, which includes online marketing fees, media, agency and production expenses, in accordance with the AICPA
Accounting Standards Executive Committees Statement of Position (SOP) 93-7, Reporting on Advertising Costs. Advertising production costs are expensed the first time the advertisement runs. Online marketing fees and
media (television, radio and print) placement costs are expensed in the month the advertising appears. Agency fees are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $1,627 and $2,855 for the three- and six-month period ended July 3, 2004, and $1,864
and $3,737 for the three- and six-month period ended July 2, 2005, and are included in sales and marketing expenses.



Product Development: Product development expenses consist primarily of expenses associated with planning, maintaining and operating the
Companys partners e-commerce businesses, and payroll and related expenses for the Companys engineering, production, creative and management information systems departments. Costs incurred to develop internal-use computer software
during the application development stage, including those relating to developing the Companys partners Web sites, generally are capitalized. Costs of enhancements to internal-use computer software are also capitalized, provided that
these enhancements result in additional functionality.



Stock-Based Compensation: SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The
Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options issued to employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Companys stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to
acquire the stock. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation for stock options and warrants issued to non-employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and EITF No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than
Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, and EITF No. 00-18, Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees. Accordingly, compensation
expense for stock options and warrants issued to non-employees are measured using a Black-Scholes multiple option pricing model that takes into account significant assumptions as to the expected life of the option or warrant, the expected volatility
of the Companys common stock and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option or warrant. Compensation expense for restricted stock awards is recorded on a straight-line method over the vesting period.

Stock-based
compensation expense related to the amortization of deferred partner revenue share charges was $332 and $692 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 3, 2004, and $675 and $1,163 for the three- and six-month periods ended July 2, 2005.



Income Taxes: The Company recognizes deferred tax
assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Companys assets and liabilities and expected benefits of utilizing net operating loss carryforwards. The impact on deferred taxes
from changes in tax rates and laws, if any, applied to the years during which temporary differences are expected to be settled, is reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period of enactment. Valuation allowances are established
when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.



New Accounting Pronouncements



In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43 Chapter 4,
Inventory Pricing to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB 43 Chapter 4, previously stated that under some
circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current
period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of so abnormal. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during the fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation
of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on normal capacity of the production facility. The Company anticipates that adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have no significant impact on the Companys financial position or
results of operations.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets an Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS No. 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No.
29 and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. This Statement specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a
result of the exchange. SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company anticipates that adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have no significant impact on the Companys
financial position or results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123R
Share-Based Payment, or FAS 123R, which replaces Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, or FAS 123, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, or APB 25. FAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. In
addition, FAS 123R will cause unrecognized expense (based on the amounts in our pro forma footnote disclosure) related to options vesting after the date of initial adoption to be recognized as a charge to results of operations over the remaining
vesting period. In April 2005, the SEC announced that it would delay the initial adoption of FAS 123R from interim periods that begin after June 15, 2005, to annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Under FAS 123R, the Company must determine
the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the requirements of FAS 123R and it
expects that the adoption of FAS 123R will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.



In June 2005, the FASB, issued FSP FAS 150-5, Issuers Accounting under FASB Statement No. 150 for Freestanding Warrants and Other Similar
Instruments on Shares That Are Redeemable. This FSP clarifies that freestanding warrants and other similar instruments on shares that are redeemable should be accounted for as liabilities under Statement 150 regardless of the timing of the
redemption feature or price. The guidance in this FSP shall be applied to the first reporting period beginning after June 30, 2005. The Company is evaluating the requirements of FSP FAS 150-5 and it expects that the adoption of FSP FAS 150-5 will
not have a material impact on its financial position, consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.

The fair value of
marketable securities with loss positions was $15,659 as of January 1, 2005 and $35,624 as of July 2, 2005, and the gross unrealized losses on these marketable securities were $104 as of January 1, 2005 and $186 as of July 2, 2005. The Company
considered the nature of these marketable securities, which are primarily U.S. government agency securities, the amount of the impairments relative to the carrying value of the related investments and the duration of the impairments, which are all
less than twelve months, and concluded that the impairments were not other than temporary.

NOTE 8 NET LOSS PER SHARE



Basic earnings (loss) per share for all periods have been
computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic and diluted loss per share are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential common
shares from outstanding common stock options and warrants, and convertible notes have been excluded from the calculation of diluted losses per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.



The amounts used in calculating loss per share data are as follows:

NOTE 10SIGNIFICANT
TRANSACTIONS/CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK



The Company
had $12,397 as of January 1, 2005 and $12,928 as of July 2, 2005, of operating cash and $63,026 as of January 1, 2005 and $104,561 as of July 2, 2005 of cash equivalents and marketable securities invested with three financial institutions, which are
potentially subject to credit risk. The composition of these investments is regularly monitored by management of the Company.



NOTE 11MAJOR SUPPLIERS/ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY



During the three-month period ended July 2, 2005, the Company purchased inventory from one supplier amounting to $24,576 or 49.3% of total inventory
purchased. During the six-month period ended July 2, 2005, the Company purchased inventory from one supplier amounting to $49,289 or 49.0% of total inventory purchased.



During the three-month period ended July 3, 2004, the Company purchased inventory from one supplier amounting to $12,820 or
37.2% of total inventory purchased. During the six-month period ended July 3, 2004, the Company purchased inventory from one supplier amounting to $25,251 or 37.1% of total inventory purchased.



No other supplier amounted to more than 10% of total inventory purchased for
any period presented.



NOTE 12COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Legal Proceedings



The Company is involved in various litigation incidental to its current and
discontinued businesses, including alleged infringement of intellectual property rights of third parties, contractual claims and claims relating to the manner in which goods are sold through its e-commerce platform.



While the Company sold certain assets of Ashford.com, Inc. in December 2002,
Ashford.com continues to be a party to certain litigation that was commenced prior to the Companys acquisition of Ashford.com in March 2002. Since July 11, 2001, several stockholder class action complaints have been filed in the United States
District Court of the Southern District of New York against Ashford.com, several of Ashford.coms officers and directors, and various underwriters of Ashford.coms initial public offering. The purported class actions have all been brought
on behalf of purchasers of Ashford.com common stock during various periods beginning on September 22, 1999, the date of Ashford.coms initial public offering. The plaintiffs allege that Ashford.coms prospectus, included in
Ashford.coms Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange

Commission, was materially false and misleading because it failed to disclose, among other things, certain fees and commissions collected by the underwriters
or arrangements designed to inflate the price of the common stock. The plaintiffs further allege that because of these purchases, Ashford.coms post-initial public offering stock price was artificially inflated. As a result of the alleged
omissions in the prospectus and the purported inflation of the stock price, the plaintiffs claim violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaints have been
consolidated into a single action, and the consolidated cases against Ashford.com have been consolidated with similarly consolidated cases filed against 308 other issuer defendants for the purposes of pretrial proceedings. The claims against
Ashford.coms officers and directors were dismissed in exchange for tolling agreements which permit the refiling of claims against officers and directors at a later date. A motion to dismiss filed on behalf of all issuer defendants, including
Ashford.com, was denied in all aspects relevant to Ashford.com on February 19, 2003. Ashford.com and its insurers have entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding terms for settlement of this suit. Under the settlement, plaintiffs
claims against Ashford.com and other issuers will be dismissed in exchange for certain consideration from the issuers insurers and for the issuers assignment to plaintiffs of certain potential claims against the underwriters of the
relevant initial public offerings. Formal documentation of the settlement contemplated by the memorandum of understanding is complete and the Judge presiding over this matter has preliminarily approved the settlement. In the event that a settlement
is not finalized, the Company believes that Ashford.com has defenses against these actions.



In September 2003, the Company learned that it, along with several of its partners, were named in an action in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, by a private litigant who is alleging that the Company, along
with certain of its partners, wrongfully failed to collect and remit sales and use taxes for sales of personal property to customers in Illinois and knowingly created records and statements falsely stating the Company was not required to collect or
remit such taxes. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, unpaid taxes, interest, attorneys fees, civil penalties of up to $10 per violation, and treble damages under the Illinois Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act. The Company is aware
that this same private litigant has filed similar actions against retailers in other states, and it may be possible that the Company and/or its partners may have been or may be named in similar cases in other states. The Company does not believe
that it is liable under existing laws and regulations for any failure to collect sales or other taxes relating to internet sales and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.



The Company does not believe, based on current knowledge, that any of the foregoing claims are likely to have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations. However, the Company may incur substantial expenses and devote substantial time to defend third-party claims whether or not such claims are meritorious. In the event of a
determination adverse to the Company, the Company may incur substantial monetary liability, and may be required to implement expensive changes in its business practices or enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements. Any of these could have a
material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial position or results of operations.



Acquisitions



On May 25, 2005 the Company announced it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire control of privately-held Aspherio, S.L., a Barcelona, Spain-based
provider of outsourced e-commerce solutions. Effective July 6, 2005, the Company has obtained a usufruct (a right that is irrevocable during its term and that conveys the voting and economic rights to the underlying shares without transferring title
to the shares) right over the shares representing 51% of the participations in Aspherio, S.L. The Company is working strategically with Aspherio to offer its international e-commerce capabilities to the Companys existing partners and
prospects. The Company will consolidate the third quarter results of Aspherio, S.L., showing the remaining 49% within minority interest. Under the terms of the agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company also has the
right to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Aspherio, S.L. If consummated, the purchase price for the acquisition of control and for the acquisition of the shares of Aspherio would be approximately $4.0 million plus an earn-out based on
performance of the Aspherio business. Of the $4.0 million, $2.7 million would be paid in cash and $1.3 million would be paid in cash or the Companys common stock, at the Companys election. Subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, the acquisition is expected to close in late 2005 or early 2006. The Company does not expect that the acquisition would have a material impact on its financial results for fiscal year 2005 or 2006.



Advertising and Media Agreements



As of July 2, 2005, the Company was contractually committed for the purchase
of future advertising totaling approximately $3 through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. The expense related to these commitments will be recognized in accordance with the Companys accounting policy related to advertising (see Note
2).

NOTE 15RELATED PARTY
TRANSACTIONS



In the fiscal years-ended December 30, 2000
and December 29, 2001, Interactive Technology Holdings, LLC, a joint venture of Comcast Corporation and QVC, Inc., acquired 10,797,900 shares of the Companys common stock and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of the Companys common
stock, which accounted for approximately 26.0% of the Companys outstanding common stock as of January 1, 2005. On January 31, 2005, ITH effected a distribution of all of its assets, including shares of GSI common stock, to entities affiliated
with Comcast and QVC. As of July 2, 2005, QVC beneficially owned approximately 19.3% of our outstanding common stock. M. Jeffrey Branman, one of our directors, was the President of Interactive Technology Services, which served as financial advisor
to ITH through its dissolution. Mr. Branman is no longer affiliated with ITH, Interactive Technology Services or QVC.



In the fiscal year-ended 2000, the Company entered into a website development and distribution agreement with iQVC, a division of QVC, Inc., pursuant to
which the Company provides technology, procurement and fulfillment services for QVC, including selling sporting goods, recreational and/or fitness related equipment and related products, apparel and footwear to QVC for resale through the QVC Web
site. The Company recognized net revenues on sales to this related party for the three- and six-month periods ended July 3, 2004 of $238 and $571, and for the three- and six-month periods ended July 2, 2005 of $113 and $511 under this Web site
development and distribution agreement. The terms of these sales are comparable to those with other business-to-business partners of the Company. As of July 2, 2005, the amount included in accounts receivable net was $34 related to these sales.



In the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004, the Company entered
into a service agreement with QVC pursuant to which QVC provided shipping services to the Company in exchange for fees. The fees charged to the Company by QVC were determined through arms-length negotiations. The Company incurred fees of $264 and
$583 for the three- and six-month period ended July 3, 2004, of which $250 and $557 related directly to products shipped and was charged to cost of revenues from product sales and $14 and $26 related to professional services provided and was charged

from product sales and $13 related to professional services provided and was charged to sales and marketing expense. All fees were incurred in the first quarter due to the termination of the agreement.



In exchange for Rustic Canyon forfeiting the rights to designate one member
to the Companys Board, on June 26, 2004, the Company granted to Rustic Canyon a warrant to purchase 12,500 shares of the Companys common stock with a term of five years and an exercise price of $9.31 per share. The fair value of the
warrant was estimated on the date of grant using Black-Sholes multiple option pricing model and the Company recorded $89 of stock-based compensation expense, relating to the warrant.



NOTE 16LONG-TERM DEBT AND OTHER



On June 1, 2005, the Company completed a public offering of $57.5 million aggregate principal amount of 3% convertible unsecured notes due June 1, 2025,
raising net proceeds of approximately $55.0 million, net of approximately $2.5 million of underwriters discount and debt issuance costs. The underwriters discount and debt issuance costs are being amortized using the straight-line method
which approximates the effective interest method. The convertible unsecured notes bear interest at 3%, payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1, beginning December 1, 2005.



Holders may convert the notes into shares of the Companys common stock at a conversion rate of 56.1545 shares per
$1,000 principal amount of notes (representing a conversion price of approximately $17.81 per share), subject to adjustment, on or prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding May 1, 2010. Holders may convert only if (i)
the trading price of the notes for a defined period is less than 103% of the product of the closing sale price of the Company common stock and the conversion rate or (ii) the Company elects to make certain distributions of assets or securities to
all holders of common stock. Upon conversion, the Company will have the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of the Companys common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of the Companys common stock, which is at the
Companys election. At any time prior to maturity date the Company may irrevocably elect to satisfy the Companys conversion obligation with respect to the principal amount of the notes to be converted with a combination of cash and shares
of the Companys common stock, which is at the Companys election. If holders elect to convert their notes in connection with a fundamental change (any transaction or event, as defined and further described in the Indenture, whereby more
than 50% of the Companys common stock is exchanged, converted and/or acquired) that occurs on or prior to June 1, 2010, the Company is required to deliver shares of the Companys common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of
the Companys common stock, which is at the Companys election, inclusive of a make whole adjustment that could result in up to 11.23 additional shares issued per $1,000 principal amount of notes. This make whole adjustment is based on the
sale price of the Companys common stock.

##### Table of Contents

At any time on or after June 6, 2010, the Company may redeem any of the notes for cash at a redemption
price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the redemption date. Holders may require the Company to repurchase the notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on June 1 of 2010, 2015, and 2020, or at any time prior to maturity upon the occurrence of a designated event.

NOTE 17RESTATEMENT OF THE
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS



Subsequent to the
issuance of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 1, 2005, the Company determined that the Companys investments in auction rate securities should have been classified as marketable securities within current assets.
Previously, such investments had been classified as cash and cash equivalents. Accordingly, the Company restated the classification to report these investments as marketable securities for the six-month period ended July 3, 2004, to reflect the
gross purchases and sales of these investments as investing activities rather than as a component of cash and cash equivalents. The restatement had no impact on previously reported total current assets, total assets, working capital position,
results of operations or cash flows from operating activities.



The following table presents a summary of the significant effects of the restatement:

Overview and Executive Summary



| |  |  | We are a leading provider of e-commerce solutions that enables retailers, branded manufacturers, entertainment companies and professional sports organizations to operate e-commerce
businesses. We provide solutions for our partners through our integrated e-commerce platform, which is comprised of three components: core technology, supporting infrastructure and partner services. Through our platform, we provide Web site
administration, Web infrastructure and hosting, business intelligence, an e-commerce engine, order management, fulfillment, drop shipment, customer service, buying, creative design, Web site usability, testing and enhancement services, channel
integration, business-to-business (B-to-B) services, content development and imaging, e-commerce strategy, online marketing and customer relationship management (CRM).

| |  |  | We offer what we believe is a comprehensive and compelling value proposition that includes the provision of expertise and infrastructure to enable our partners to grow their
e-commerce businesses and to use their e-commerce businesses as a channel to complement and enhance their offline businesses. We have built and continue to develop expertise in integrated online technology, marketing and retailing, which we deliver
across a shared technology, supporting infrastructure and partner services platform. We continually add new services and functions to our platforms. As part of our continuing efforts to add value to our platform, we evaluate opportunities to acquire
complimentary or new businesses or assets.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Generally, we launch the website of a new partner within three to six months after entering into a contract with such new partner. During the period in which we are planning and
developing a new partners Web site, we incur development and launch expenses without any accompanying revenues. We anticipate that new Web sites typically will contribute to our income from operations in their first full year of
operation.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We derive virtually all of our revenues from sales of products by us through our partners e-commerce businesses and service fees earned by us in connection with the
development and operation of our partners e-commerce businesses. Our revenue growth in the first six months of fiscal 2005 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004 was due to an increase in revenues of $41.8 million from product
sales in both our sporting goods and other categories, as well as an increase of $10.2 million in service fee revenues. These increases were driven primarily by our existing partners as well as the launch of new partners in fiscal 2004, which
contributed to increased sales in the first six months of fiscal 2005.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our gross profit increased $18.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2005 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004 as a result of sales growth in new and existing
partners. The gross margin decrease from 26.3% to 24.5%, which was a result of a shift in sales mix from sporting goods to consumer electronics, which carry a lower gross margin than product sales of sporting goods. We specifically do not record
cost of service fee revenue. The cost of sales of the merchandise on which we earn service fees are costs incurred by our service-fee partners because they are the owners and sellers of the merchandise. Accordingly, our gross margin on service
revenues is 100%. Our gross margin on products has typically been impacted by the mix of products sold between our sporting goods and other categories as well as within our sporting goods category.

participations in Aspherio, S.L. Under the terms of the agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, we also have the right to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Aspherio, S.L. If consummated, the purchase price for the
acquisition of control and for the acquisition of the shares of Aspherio would be approximately $4.0 million plus an earn-out based on performance of the Aspherio business. Of the $4.0 million, $2.7 million would be paid in cash and $1.3 million
would be paid in cash or our common stock, at the our election. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the acquisition is expected to close in late 2005 or early 2006. We do not expect that the acquisition to have a material impact on
our financial results for fiscal year 2005 or 2006.

| |  |  | On June 1, 2005, we raised approximately $80 million of net proceeds through the concurrent sale of 1.8 million common shares and $57.5 million aggregate principal amount of 3%
convertible notes due 2025. We will use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including possible acquisitions.

Net Revenues from
Product Sales. Net revenues from product sales are derived from the sale of products by us through our partners e-commerce businesses. Net revenues from product sales are net of allowances for returns and discounts and include outbound
shipping charges and other product related services such as gift wrapping and monogramming.



Net revenues from product sales increased $22.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 primarily due to the growth of our existing partners. Of this increase, $8.3 million was due to an increase in sales in our
sporting goods category and $13.8 million was due to an increase in sales in our other product category, which primarily includes consumer electronics.



Service Fee Revenue. Service fee revenues are derived from service fees earned in connection with the development and operation of our
partners e-commerce businesses. Service fees primarily consist of variable fees based on the value of merchandise sold or gross profit generated through our partners e-commerce businesses. To a lesser extent, service fees include fixed
periodic payments by partners for the development and operation of their e-commerce businesses and fees related to the provision or marketing, design, development and other services.

Net Revenues from
Product Sales. Net revenues from product sales increased $41.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2005 primarily due to the growth of our existing partners. Of this increase, $14.6 million was due to an increase in sales in our sporting
goods category and $27.2 million was due to an increase in sales in our other product category, which primarily includes consumer electronics.



Service Fee Revenue. Service fee revenues increased $10.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2005, due primarily to the launch of new
fee-based partners in fiscal 2004 and 2005 and growth in existing partners.



Cost of Revenues



Cost of revenues consists of
cost of revenues from product sales and cost of service fee revenues. Cost of revenues from product sales include the cost of products sold and inbound freight related to those products, as well as outbound shipping and handling costs, other than
those related to promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling which are included in sales and marketing expense. We specifically do not record cost of service fee revenue. The cost of the sales of the merchandise on which we earn
service fees are incurred by our service-fee partners because they are the owners and sellers of the merchandise. The following tables show cost of revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 and second quarter of fiscal 2005, the first six
months of fiscal 2004 and the first six months of fiscal 2005, the percentages that such costs bear to total net revenues and the period over period changes in cost of revenues.

As a percentage of net
revenues, cost of revenues increased from 61.2% in second quarter of fiscal 2004 to 62.2% in second quarter of fiscal 2005. The increase in cost of revenues was primarily due to more product sales in the other category, which is primarily consumer
electronics, which carry a lower gross margin or higher cost of revenue compared to product sales of sporting goods. Cost of revenues from product sales as a percentage of net revenues from product sales increased from approximately 74.5% in second
quarter of fiscal 2004 to approximately 75.9% in second quarter of fiscal 2005.

As a percentage of net
revenues, cost of revenues increased from 61.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2004 to 62.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2005. The change in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues resulted from more product sales in the other
category, which is primarily consumer electronics, which carry a lower gross margin or higher cost of revenue compared to product sales of sporting goods. Cost of revenues from product sales as a percentage of net revenues from product sales
increased from approximately 73.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2004 to approximately 75.6% in the first six months of fiscal 2005.



Gross Profit



Gross profit consists of gross profit from product sales and gross profit from service fees. Because we do not record cost of service fee revenues, net
revenues from service fees and gross profit from service fees are the same. The following tables show gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 and the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the first six months of fiscal 2004 and the first six

The increase in gross
profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 was due to a $5.0 million increase in service fee revenues and a $4.5 million increase in gross profit from product sales primarily of our existing partners. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage
of net revenues in second quarter of fiscal 2005 was largely driven by greater than planned product sales in the other category, which is primarily consumer electronics, which carry a lower gross margin than product sales of sporting goods. Gross
profit from product sales represented 54.2% of total gross profit in second quarter of fiscal 2004 and 52.3% in second quarter of fiscal 2005. Gross profit from service fee revenues represented 45.8% of total gross profit in second quarter of fiscal
2004 and 47.7% in second quarter of fiscal 2005. The gross profit on product sales decreased from 25.6% in second quarter of fiscal 2004 to 24.1% in second quarter of fiscal 2005 due primarily to a shift in sales from sporting goods to consumer
electronics.

in service fee revenues and an $8.2 million increase in gross profit from product sales primarily of our existing partners. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net revenues in first six months of fiscal 2005 was largely driven by greater
than planned product sales in the other category, which is primarily consumer electronics, which carry a lower gross margin than product sales of sporting goods. Gross profit from product sales represented 58.0% of total gross profit in six months
of fiscal 2004 and 54.3% in first six months of fiscal 2005. Gross profit from service fee revenues represented 42.0% of total gross profit in first six months of fiscal 2004 and 45.7% in first six months of fiscal 2005. The gross profit on product
sales decreased from 26.3% in first six months of fiscal 2004 to 24.4% in first six months of fiscal 2005 due primarily to a shift in sales from sporting goods to consumer electronics.

Sales and Marketing
Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses include advertising and promotional expenses, including promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling costs, online marketing fees, commissions to participants in the affiliate programs for
our partners Web sites, fulfillment costs, customer service costs, credit card fees, merchandising costs and payroll and related expenses. These expenses also include partner revenue share charges, which are royalty payments made to our
partners in exchange for the use of their brands, the promotion of our partners URLs, Web sites and toll-free telephone numbers in their marketing and communications materials, the implementation of programs to provide incentives to customers
to shop through the e-commerce businesses that we operate for our partners and other programs and services provided to the customers of the e-commerce businesses that we operate for our partners.



Sales and marketing expenses increased $4.5 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 2005 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in credit card fees, a $0.9 million increase in payroll and related costs principally in our fulfillment operations, a $0.5 million increase in
subsidized shipping costs due to increased promotional shipping activity, a $0.4 million increase in occupancy costs related to the opening of a second fulfillment facility in the third quarter of 2004, and a $1.6 million increase in other variable
expenses primarily caused by higher sales volumes in the second quarter of fiscal 2005.



Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses consist primarily of expenses associated with planning, maintaining and operating our partners e-commerce businesses and payroll and related
expenses for engineering, production, creative and management information systems.



Product development expenses increased $1.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in staffing and related costs, and a $0.3
million increase in communication, web hosting and equipment maintenance costs. The increases in these costs were necessary to support new partner launches, deliver enhanced functionality for our partners e-commerce businesses and continue to
improve the capacity, stability and security of our e-commerce platform.

payroll and related expenses for executive, finance, human resources, legal and administrative personnel, as well as bad debt expense and occupancy costs for our headquarters and other offices.



General and administrative expenses increased $0.2 million from the second
quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared to second quarter of fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $0.7 million increase due to investments in payroll and related costs to support the growth of our business, which was partially offset by a $0.3 million in
administrative costs in fiscal 2004 that we did not incur in fiscal 2005 and a $0.2 million reduction in other general and administrative expenses.



Stock-Based Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense consists of the amortization of deferred compensation expense for options and awards
granted to employees and certain non-employees, including options subject to variable accounting (the expense for which may fluctuate from period to period based on the closing market price of our stock), the value of options or warrants granted to
certain partners and investors and amortization of deferred partner revenue share charges. Deferred partner revenue share charges, which are included in other assets, relate to a partners exercise of a right to receive shares of our common
stock in lieu of future cash revenue share payments.



Stock-based compensation expense increased $1.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004 primarily due to a $0.8 million increase in the amortization of deferred compensation expense relating to
options subject to variable accounting, a $0.5 million increase in expense relating to stock awards, a $0.1 million decrease in expense relating to options for non-employees, as well as a $0.3 million increase in deferred partner revenue share
charges resulting from higher product sales from the partners e-commerce business. As of the end of second quarter of fiscal 2005, we had an aggregate of $1.0 million of deferred stock-based compensation remaining to be amortized. We had
stock-based compensation expense related to the amortization of deferred partner revenue share charges of $0.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 and $0.7 million for second quarter of fiscal 2005.



Depreciation and Amortization Expense.Depreciation and amortization
expenses relate primarily to the depreciation of our corporate headquarters and Louisville, Kentucky fulfillment center, the depreciation and amortization of the capitalized costs for our purchased and internally developed technology, including a
portion of the cost related to the employees that developed such technology, hardware and software and the depreciation of improvements, furniture and equipment at our corporate headquarters and our fulfillment and customer contact centers.



Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.1 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2004 primarily due to additional assets to build, manage and operate our business, offset in part, by certain previously purchased assets becoming fully depreciated in
fiscal 2004.

Sales and marketing
expenses increased $8.0 million from the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $2.5 million increase in payroll and related costs principally in our fulfillment operations, a $2.2 million
increase in credit card fees, a $0.9 million increase in occupancy related costs due to the opening of a second fulfillment facility in the third quarter of 2004, a $0.7 million increase in online marketing, a $0.8 million increase in subsidized
shipping costs related to increased promotional shipping activity, and a $0.9 million increase in other variable expenses primarily caused by higher sales volumes in the first six months of fiscal 2005.



Product development expenses increased $4.0 million in the first six months
of fiscal 2005 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $3.2 million increase in staffing and related costs, and a $0.8 million increase in communication,

web hosting and equipment maintenance costs. The increases in these costs were necessary to support new partner launches, deliver enhanced functionality for
our partners e-commerce businesses and continue to improve the capacity, stability and security of our e-commerce platform.



General and administrative expenses increased $1.5 million from the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004
primarily due to a $1.6 million increased investments in payroll and related costs to support the growth of our business, which was partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in other general and administrative expenses.



Stock-based compensation expense increased $0.7 million for the first six
months of fiscal 2005 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2005 primarily due to a $0.2 million decrease in the amortization of deferred compensation expense relating to options subject to variable accounting, a $0.6 million increase in
expense relating to stock awards, a $0.1 million decrease in expense relating to options for non-employees, as well as a $0.4 million increase in deferred partner revenue share charges resulting from higher product sales from the partners
e-commerce business. As of the end of first six months of fiscal 2005, we had an aggregate of $1.0 million of deferred stock-based compensation remaining to be amortized. We had stock-based compensation expense related to the amortization of
deferred partner revenue share charges of $0.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2004 and $1.1 million for first six months of fiscal 2005.



Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2004
primarily due to additional assets to build, manage and operate our business, offset in part, by certain previously purchased assets becoming fully depreciated in fiscal 2004.



Other (Income) Expense



Other (income) expense consists of expenses related to a minority interest held by a third party in a joint venture with us and losses and gains on the
disposition of assets. Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense paid in connection with a mortgage note that we have on our new corporate headquarters, interest expense on capital leases and interest expense related to the issuance of
convertible notes. Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities.



Income Taxes



Since the sales of our discontinued operations in fiscal 1999 and fiscal 2000, we have not generated taxable income. Net operating losses generated have
been carried back to offset income taxes paid in prior years. The remaining net operating losses will be carried forward. As of January 1, 2005, we had available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $443 million which expire in the
years 2005 through 2024. The use of certain net operating loss carryforwards are subject to annual limitations based on ownership changes of our stock, as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. We expect that net operating losses of
approximately $245 million will expire before they can be used. Any otherwise recognizable deferred tax assets have been offset by a valuation allowance for the net operating loss carryforwards.



Certain Related Party Transactions



In fiscal 2000 and 2001, Interactive Technology Holdings, LLC, a joint
venture of Comcast Corporation and QVC, Inc., acquired 10,797,900 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of our common stock, which accounted for approximately 26.0% of our outstanding common stock as of January 1, 2005.
On January 31, 2005, ITH effected a distribution of all of its assets, including shares of GSI common stock, to entities affiliated with Comcast and QVC. As of July 2, 2005, QVC beneficially owned approximately 19.3% of our outstanding common stock.
M. Jeffrey Branman, one of our directors, was the President of Interactive Technology Services, which served as financial advisor to ITH through its dissolution. Mr. Branman is no longer affiliated with ITH, Interactive Technology Services or QVC.



In fiscal 2000, we entered into a website development and
distribution agreement with iQVC, a division of QVC, Inc., pursuant to which we provide technology, procurement and fulfillment services for QVC, including selling sporting goods, recreational and/or fitness related equipment and related products,
apparel and footwear to QVC for resale through the QVC website. We recognized net revenues of $113,000 and $511,000 for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2005 sales to QVC under this website development and distribution agreement.
The terms of these sales are comparable to those with our other business-to-business partners. Included in accounts receivable as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005 was $34,000 related to these sales.



In fiscal 2003, we entered into a services agreement with QVC, Inc. pursuant
to which QVC provided shipping services to us in exchange for fees. The fees charged to us by QVC were determined through arms-length negotiations. This agreement terminated effective April 3, 2005. We incurred fees of $25,442 for the first six
months of fiscal 2005, of which $12,794 related

directly to products shipped and was charged to cost of revenues from product sales and $12,648 related to fulfillment services provided and was charged to
sales and marketing expense. These fees were incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as the agreement terminated April 3, 2005.



We were the beneficial owner of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of Odimo Incorporated, referred to as Odimo, and warrants to acquire
additional shares of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of Odimo. These securities were acquired in connection with the sale of certain assets of our Ashford.com subsidiary in 2002.



In February, 2005, Odimo completed an initial public offering through the
issuance of 3,125,000 shares of its common stock. Effective upon completion of Odimos initial public offering, we exercised our warrants to acquire Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of Odimo and converted all of such shares,
along with our already held shares of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of Odimo, into an aggregate of 824,594 shares of common stock of Odimo. We own approximately 11.5% of the outstanding common stock of Odimo Incorporated.
SOFTBANK Capital Partners LLC and its affiliates collectively own approximately 11.9% of the outstanding common stock of Odimo. SOFTBANK Capital Partners LLC and its affiliates collectively own approximately 20.7% of our outstanding common stock.
Ronald D. Fisher, one of our directors, is vice-chairman of SOFTBANK Holdings Inc. and SOFTBANK Corp. and a managing general partner of SOFTBANK Capital Partners LP, which are affiliates of SOFTBANK Capital Partners LLC, and Michael S. Perlis, one
of our directors, is also managing partner of SOFTBANK Capital Partners LP.



In exchange for Rustic Canyon Partners forfeiting its right to designate one member to GSIs board of directors on June 25, 2004, GSIs board of directors approved the issuance to Rustic Canyon Partners of a
warrant to purchase 12,500 shares of GSIs common stock with a term of five years and an exercise price equal to the closing price of GSIs common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on the date immediately preceding the date
of the approval of such issuance. Mark S. Menell, one of our directors, is a partner of Rustic Canyon Partners.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



Our principal source of liquidity is our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balances
were $75.4 million as of the end of fiscal 2004 and $117.5 million as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005.



Since our entry into the e-commerce business in 1999, we have primarily funded our operations with approximately $258.5 million in cash raised in equity
and debt financings. We also received an aggregate of $23.5 million in proceeds from the sales of our discontinued operations in fiscal 1999 and fiscal 2000 and $35.7 million in cash from the acquisition of Fogdog, Inc. in fiscal 2000. We used a
portion of the cash from these transactions in connection with the exit from our discontinued operations and the balance for the working capital needs to fund operating losses incurred prior to fiscal 2004 and general business purposes of our
e-commerce business. We also used $7.1 million in cash in connection with our acquisition of Ashford.com, Inc. in March 2002 and received $1.0 million in cash and a secured note in the principal amount of $4.5 million in connection with our sale of
certain assets of Ashford in December 2002 and March 2003. This note was repaid in full in August 2004. In June 2005 we received proceeds of approximately $80 million net of underwriters discount and offering expenses from the completion of
our public offering of equity and debt. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, including possible acquisitions.



We had working capital of $29.7 million as of the end of fiscal 2004 and $104.7 million as of the end of the second quarter
of fiscal 2005, and an accumulated deficit of $177.3 million as of the end fiscal 2004 and $181.7 million as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005.



We used approximately $28.7 million in net cash for operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2005. Our principal sources of operating
cash during the first six months of fiscal 2005 were payments received from customers and fee-based partners, which generally approximate our net revenues from product sales and our service fee revenues, respectively. Our principal uses of operating
cash during the first six months of fiscal 2005 were cash paid to product suppliers, employee compensation and partner revenue share payments. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities during the first six months of fiscal 2005 resulted in a
net cash outflow of $32.5 million. The most significant changes were a decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other, offset, in part, by a decrease in accounts receivable compared to the end of fiscal 2004. The decrease in accounts
payable, accrued expenses and other was due primarily to a decrease in trade accounts payable due primarily to lower inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and a decrease in amounts owed to partners, which were related to
increased sales volume in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. Our investing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2005 consisted primarily of the purchase of $81.7 million and sale of $43.0 million of marketable securities. During the
first six months of fiscal 2005, we also incurred capital expenditures of $11.7 million. Our financing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2005 consisted of the receipt of $2.6 million in gross proceeds from exercises of common stock
options and $85.7 million in gross proceeds from public offering of equity and debt.

We used approximately $12.4 million in net cash for operating activities during the first six months of
fiscal 2004. Our principal sources of operating cash during the first six months of fiscal 2004 were payments received from customers and fee-based partners, which generally approximate our net revenues from product sales and our service fee
revenues, respectively. Our principal uses of operating cash during the first six months of fiscal 2004 were cash paid to product suppliers, employee compensation and partner revenue share payments. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities
during the first six months of fiscal 2004 resulted in a net cash outflow of $11.2 million. The most significant changes were a decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other, a decrease in deferred revenue and an increase in accounts
receivable compared to the end of fiscal 2003. The decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other was due primarily to a decrease in operating accounts payable related to decreased sales volume in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. The
decrease in deferred revenue was due to a decrease in service fees paid to us in advance by certain partners. The increase in accounts receivable was due primarily to decreases in our accounts receivable reserves. Our investing activities during the
first six months of fiscal 2004 consisted primarily of the purchase of our new corporate headquarters and other capital expenditures totaling approximately $23.7 million. During the first six months of fiscal 2004, we also purchased $17.3 million
and sold $15.1 million of marketable securities. Our financing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2004 consisted primarily of the receipt of $13.0 million in gross proceeds from a mortgage note on our new corporate headquarters.



During the three-months ended July 2, 2005, we increased our
long-term debt contractual obligations. In June 2005, we completed an offering of $57.5 million of 3.0% convertible unsecured notes due June 1, 2025. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1, beginning December 1,
2005.



Seasonality



We have experienced and expect to continue to experience seasonal
fluctuations in our revenues. These seasonal patterns will cause quarterly fluctuations in our operating results. In particular, our fourth fiscal quarter has accounted for and is expected to continue to account for a disproportionate percentage of
our total annual revenues. We believe that results of operations for a quarterly period may not be indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.



Risk Factors



Any investment in our common stock or other securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following information about these
risks, together with the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. If any of the following risks occur, our business could be materially harmed. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock could decline, and
you may lose all or part of the money you paid to buy our common stock. The risks described below are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks not necessarily known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our
business operations.



Risks Related to Our Business



Our future success cannot be predicted based upon our
limited operating history.



Compared to certain of our
current and potential competitors, we have a relatively short operating history. In addition, the nature of our business has undergone rapid development and change since we began operating it. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict whether we will
be successful. Thus, our chances of financial and operational success should be evaluated in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses, delays and difficulties associated with operating a new business in a relatively new market, many of which are
beyond our control. If we are unable to address these issues, we may not be financially or operationally successful.



We have an accumulated deficit and may incur additional losses.



Although we recorded a profit in fiscal 2004, we incurred losses over the prior five fiscal years and in the first two
quarters of fiscal 2005 while operating our business. As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005, we had an accumulated deficit of $181.7 million. We may not generate sufficient revenue from our existing partners, add an appropriate number
of new partners or adequately control our expenses. While we expect to be profitable in fiscal 2005, there can be no assurances that we will be able to achieve profitability.



We will continue to incur significant operating expenses and capital expenditures as we:



| |  |  | enhance our fulfillment capabilities;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | further improve our order processing systems and capabilities;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | develop new technologies and features to improve our partners e-commerce businesses;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enhance our customer service center capabilities to better serve customers needs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | improve our marketing, customer relationship management and design capabilities;

| |  |  | continue our business development, sales and marketing activities; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make strategic or opportunistic acquisitions of complementary or new businesses or assets.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



If we incur expenses at a greater pace than our revenues, we could incur additional losses.



Our growth may be limited if we do not generate sufficient cash to fund
our operations. We may in the future need additional debt or equity financing to execute our business and continue our growth. Such additional financing may not be available on satisfactory terms or it may not be available when needed, or at all.



Because we have not generated sufficient cash from
operations to date, we have funded our e-commerce business primarily from the sale of equity securities. If our cash flows are insufficient to fund our operations, we may in the future need to seek additional equity or debt financings or reduce
costs. Further, we may not be able to obtain financing on satisfactory terms or it may not be available when needed, or at all. Our inability to finance our growth, either internally or externally, may limit our growth potential and our ability to
execute our business strategy. If we issue securities to raise capital, our existing stockholders may experience dilution or the new securities may have rights senior to those of our common stock.



Seasonal fluctuations in sales could cause wide fluctuations in our
quarterly results.



We have experienced and expect to
continue to experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenues. These seasonal patterns have caused and will continue to cause quarterly fluctuations in our operating results. Our results of operations historically have been seasonal primarily because
consumers increase their purchases on our partners e-commerce businesses during the fourth quarter holiday season.



In anticipation of increased sales activity during our fourth fiscal quarter, we incur additional expenses by hiring a significant number of temporary
employees to supplement our permanent staff. Our fourth fiscal quarter has accounted for and is expected to continue to account for a disproportionate percentage of our total annual revenues. For each of fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003 approximately 40%
of our annual net revenues were generated in our fiscal fourth quarter. Since fiscal 1999, we have not generated net income in any fiscal quarter other than a fiscal fourth quarter. If our revenues are below seasonal expectations during the fourth
fiscal quarter, our operating results could be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. Due to the nature of our business, it is difficult to predict the seasonal pattern of our sales and the impact of this seasonality on our
business and financial results. In the future, our seasonal sales patterns may become more pronounced, may strain our personnel, customer service operations, fulfillment operations and shipment activities and may cause a shortfall in revenues
compared to expenses in a given period.



In addition, if too
many consumers access our partners e-commerce businesses within a short period of time due to increased holiday or other demand, we may experience system interruptions that make our partners e-commerce businesses unavailable or prevent
us from transmitting orders to our fulfillment operations, which may reduce the volume of goods we sell as well as the attractiveness of our partners e-commerce businesses to consumers. In anticipation of increased sales activity during our
fourth fiscal quarter, we and our partners increase our inventory levels. If we and our partners do not increase inventory levels for popular products in sufficient amounts or are unable to restock popular products in a timely manner, we and our
partners may fail to meet customer demand which could reduce the attractiveness of our partners e-commerce businesses. Alternatively, if we overstock products, we may be required to take significant inventory markdowns or write-offs, which
could reduce profits.



We have expanded into new categories
and may expand into additional new categories in the future. If we do not successfully execute on the expansion of our operations into these new categories, our growth could be limited.



While we have operated in e-commerce since 1999, we did not expand beyond
the sporting goods category until 2001. Today, our operations have expanded into categories including apparel, health and beauty, consumer electronics, entertainment, home and jewelry and luxury goods. Each category in which we operate requires
unique capabilities and increases the complexity of our business. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue in a category, we may not be able to cover the incremental staffing and expenses required to support the unique capabilities required
by that category. If we do not expand into new categories, there can be no assurance that we will do so successfully.

##### Table of Contents

Consumers are constantly changing their buying preferences. If we fail to anticipate these changes and
adjust our inventory accordingly, we could experience lower sales, higher inventory markdowns and lower margins for the inventory that we own.



Our success depends, in part, upon our ability and our partners ability to anticipate and respond to consumer trends with respect to products sold
through the e-commerce businesses we operate. Consumers tastes are subject to frequent and significant changes. In order to be successful, we or our partners must accurately predict consumers tastes and avoid overstocking or
understocking products. If we or our partners fail to identify and respond to changes in merchandising and consumer preferences, sales on our partners e-commerce businesses could suffer and we or our partners could be required to mark down
unsold inventory. This would depress our profit margins. In addition, any failure to keep pace with changes in consumers tastes could result in lost opportunities which could reduce sales.



High merchandise returns or shrinkage rates could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.



We cannot be assured that inventory loss and theft, or shrinkage and merchandise returns will not increase in the future. If merchandise returns are significant, or our shrinkage rate increases, our revenues and costs of
operations could be adversely affected.



Our growth depends,
in part, on our ability to add and launch new partners on a timely basis and on favorable terms.



One of the principal components of our growth strategy is to add new partners. If we are unable to add our targeted number of new partners or if we are
unable to add new partners on favorable terms, our growth may be limited. If we are unable to add and launch new partners within the time frames projected by us, we may not be able to achieve our targeted results in the expected periods. In
addition, our ability to add new partners depends on the quality of the services we provide and our reputation. To the extent that we have difficulties with the quality of the services we provide or have operational issues that adversely affect our
reputation, it could adversely impact our ability to add new partners. Because competition for new partners is intense, we may not be able to add new partners on favorable terms, or at all.



Our success is tied to the success of the partners for which we operate
e-commerce businesses.



Our success is substantially
dependent upon the success of the partners for which we operate e-commerce businesses. The retail business in the United States is intensely competitive. If our partners were to have financial difficulties or seek protection from their creditors or
if they were to suffer impairment of their brand, it could adversely affect our ability to maintain and grow our business. Our business could also be adversely affected if our partners marketing, brands or retail stores are not successful or
if our partners reduce their marketing or number of retail stores.



We enter into contracts with our partners. We derived 62% of our revenue in fiscal 2004 from five partners. If we do not maintain good working relationships with our partners, particularly our large partners, or perform as required under
these agreements, it could adversely affect our business.



The contracts with our partners establish complex relationships between our partners and us. We spend a significant amount of time and effort to maintain our relationships with our partners and address the issues that from time to time may
arise from these complex relationships. For fiscal 2004, sales to customers through one of our partners e-commerce businesses accounted for 27% of our revenue, sales through another one of our partners e-commerce businesses accounted for
13% of our revenue and sales through our top five partners e-commerce businesses accounted for 62% of our revenue. For fiscal 2003, sales to customers through one of our partners e-commerce businesses accounted for 28% of our revenue,
sales to customers through another one of our partners e-commerce businesses accounted for 17% of our revenue, and sales through our top five partners e-commerce businesses accounted for 70% of our revenue. Our partners could decide not
to renew their agreements at the end of their respective terms. Additionally, if we do not perform as required under these agreements or if we breach these agreements, our partners could seek to terminate their agreements prior to the end of their
respective terms or seek damages from us. Loss of our existing partners, particularly our major partners, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We and our partners must develop and maintain relationships with key manufacturers to obtain a
sufficient assortment and quantity of quality merchandise on acceptable commercial terms. If we or our partners are unable to do so, it could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.



For the e-commerce businesses for which we own inventory, we primarily
purchase products from the manufacturers and distributors of the products. For the e-commerce businesses for which our partners own inventory, our partners typically purchase products from the manufacturers and distributors of products or source
their own products. If we or our partners are unable to develop and maintain relationships with these manufacturers, distributors or sources we or our partners may be unable to obtain or continue to carry a sufficient assortment and quantity of
quality merchandise on acceptable commercial terms and our partners e-commerce businesses and our business could be adversely impacted. We do not have written contracts with some of our suppliers. During the second quarter of fiscal 2005, we
purchased 49.3% of the total amount of inventory we purchased from one manufacturer. In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, we purchased 37.2% of the total amount of inventory we purchased from the same manufacturer. During the first
six months of fiscal 2005, 49.0% of the total amount of inventory we purchased was from one manufacturer. In addition, during the first six months of fiscal 2004, 37.1% of the total amount of inventory we purchased was from the same manufacturer.
While we have a contract with this manufacturer, this manufacturer and other manufacturers could stop selling products to us or our partners to remove their products or logos from our partners Web sites. If we or our partners are unable to
obtain products directly from manufacturers, especially popular brand manufacturers, we or our partners may not be able to obtain the same or comparable merchandise in a timely manner or on acceptable commercial terms.



We rely on our ability to enter into marketing and promotion agreements
with online services, search engines, directories and other Web sites to drive traffic to the e-commerce businesses we operate. If we are unable to enter into or properly develop these marketing and promotional agreements, our ability to generate
revenue could be adversely affected.



We have entered into
marketing and promotion agreements with online services, search engines, directories and other Web sites to provide content, advertising banners and other links to our partners e-commerce businesses. We expect to rely on these agreements as
significant sources of traffic to our partners e-commerce businesses and to generate new customers. If we are unable to maintain these relationships or enter into new agreements on acceptable terms, our ability to attract new customers could
be harmed. Further, many of the parties with which we may have online advertising arrangements provide advertising services for other marketers of goods. As a result, these parties may be reluctant to enter into or maintain relationships with us.
Failure to achieve sufficient traffic or generate sufficient revenue from purchases originating from third parties may limit our partners and our ability to maintain market share and revenue.



If we experience problems in our fulfillment operations, our business
could be adversely affected.



Although we operate our own
fulfillment center, we rely upon multiple third parties for the shipment of our products. We also rely upon certain vendors to ship products directly to consumers. As a result, we are subject to the risks associated with the ability of these vendors
and other third parties to successfully and in a timely manner fulfill and ship customer orders. The failure of these vendors and other third parties to provide these services, or the termination or interruption of these services, could adversely
affect the satisfaction of consumers, which could result in reduced sales by our partners e-commerce businesses.



Under some of our partner agreements, we maintain the inventory of our partners in our fulfillment centers. Our failure to properly handle and protect
such inventory could adversely affect our relationship with our partners.



A disruption in our operations could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.



Any disruption to our operations, including system, network, telecommunications, software or hardware failures, and any
damage to our physical locations, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.



Our operations are subject to damage or interruption from:



| |  |  | fire, flood, hurricane, tornado, earthquake or other natural disasters;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | power losses, interruptions or brown-outs;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Internet, telecommunications or data network failures;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | physical and electronic break-ins or security breaches;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | computer viruses;
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | acts of terrorism; and
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | other similar events.
| | - |  | ---------------------

If any of these events occur, it could result in interruptions, delays or cessations in service to
customers of our partners e-commerce businesses and adversely impact our partners e-commerce businesses. These events could also prevent us from fulfilling orders for our partners e-commerce businesses. Our partners might seek
significant compensation from us for their losses. Even if unsuccessful, this type of claim likely would be time consuming and costly for us to address and damaging to our reputation.



Our primary data centers are located at two facilities of a third-party hosting company. We do not control the security,
maintenance or operation of these facilities, which are also susceptible to similar disasters and problems.



Our insurance policies may not cover us for losses related to these events, and even if they do, may not adequately compensate us for any losses that we
may incur. Any system failure that causes an interruption of the availability of our partners e-commerce businesses could reduce the attractiveness of our partners e-commerce businesses to consumers and result in reduced revenues, which
could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.



If we do not respond to rapid technological changes, our services and proprietary technology and systems may become obsolete.



The Internet and e-commerce are constantly changing. Due to the costs and
management time required to introduce new services and enhancements, we may be unable to respond to rapid technological changes in a timely enough manner to avoid our services becoming uncompetitive. To remain competitive, we must continue to
enhance and improve the functionality and features of our partners e-commerce businesses. If competitors introduce new services using new technologies or if new industry standards and practices emerge, our partners existing e-commerce
businesses and our services and proprietary technology and systems may become uncompetitive and our ability to attract and retain customers may be at risk.



Developing our e-commerce platform, offering our partners e-commerce businesses and other proprietary technology entails significant technical and
business risks. We may use new technologies ineffectively or fail to adapt our e-commerce platform, our partners e-commerce businesses and our technology to meet the requirements of partners and customers or emerging industry standards.
Additionally, the vendors we use for our partners e-commerce businesses may not provide the level of service we expect or may not be able to provide their product or service to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.



Our success is tied to the continued growth in the use of the Internet and
the adequacy of the Internet infrastructure.



Our future
success is substantially dependent upon continued growth in the use of the Internet. The number of users and advertisers on the Internet may not increase and commerce over the Internet may not continue to grow for a number of reasons, including:



| |  |  | actual or perceived lack of security of information or privacy protection;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lack of access and ease of use;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | congestion of traffic on the Internet;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | inconsistent quality of service and lack of availability of cost-effective, high-speed service;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | possible disruptions, computer viruses or other damage to the Internet servers or to users computers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | governmental regulation;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | uncertainty regarding intellectual property ownership;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lack of high-speed modems and other communications equipment; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in the cost of accessing the Internet.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



Published reports have also indicated that growth in the use of the Internet has resulted in users experiencing delays, transmission errors and other
difficulties. As currently configured, the Internet may not support an increase in the number or requirements of users. In addition, there have been outages and delays on the Internet as a result of damage to the current infrastructure. The amount
of traffic on our partners Web sites could decline materially if there are outages or delays in the future. The use of the Internet may also decline if there are delays in the development or adoption of modifications by third parties that are
required to support increased levels of activity on the Internet. If any of the foregoing occurs, the number of our partners customers could decrease. In addition, we may be required to spend significant capital to adapt our operations to any
new or emerging technologies relating to the Internet.

Consumers may be unwilling to use the Internet to purchase goods.



Our future success depends heavily upon the general publics
willingness to use the Internet as a means to purchase goods. The failure of the Internet to continue to develop as an effective commercial tool would seriously damage our future operations. If consumers are unwilling to use the Internet to conduct
business, our business may not continue to grow. The Internet may not succeed as a medium of commerce because of security risks and delays in developing elements of the needed Internet infrastructure, such as a reliable network, high-speed modems,
high-speed communication lines and other enabling technologies.



Third parties may have the technology or know-how to breach the security of customer transaction data and confidential information stored on our servers. Any breach could cause customers to lose confidence in the security of our
partners e-commerce businesses and choose not to purchase from those businesses. Our security measures may not effectively prevent others from obtaining improper access to the information on our partners e-commerce businesses. If someone
is able to circumvent our security measures, he or she could destroy or steal valuable information or disrupt the operation of our partners e-commerce businesses. Concerns about the security and privacy of transactions over the Internet could
inhibit our growth.



We and/or our partners may be unable to
protect our and their proprietary technology and intellectual property rights or keep up with that of our competitors.



Our success depends to a significant degree upon the protection of our intellectual property rights in the core technology and other components of our
e-commerce platform including our software and other proprietary information, and material, and our ability to develop technologies that are as good as or better than that of our competitors. We may be unable to deter infringement or
misappropriation of our software and other proprietary information and material, detect unauthorized use or take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights. In addition, the failure of our partners to protect their intellectual
property rights, including their trademarks and domain names, could impair our operations. Our competitors could, without violating our intellectual property rights, develop technologies that are as good as or better than our technology. Protecting
our intellectual property and other proprietary rights can be expensive. Any increase in the unauthorized use of our intellectual property could make it more expensive to do business and consequently harm our operating results. Our failure to
protect our intellectual property rights in our software and other information and material or to develop technologies that are as good as or better than our competitors could put us at a disadvantage to our competitors. These failures could have a
material adverse effect on our business.



We may be subject
to intellectual property claims or competition or trade practices claims that could be costly and could disrupt our business.



Third parties may assert that our business or technologies infringe or misappropriate their intellectual property rights. Third parties may claim that we
do not have the right to offer certain services or products or to present specific images or logos on our partners e-commerce businesses, or we have infringed their patents, trademarks, copyrights or other rights. We may in the future receive
claims that we are engaging in unfair competition or other illegal trade practices. We may be unsuccessful in defending against these claims, which could result in substantial damages, fines or other penalties. The resolution of a claim could also
require us to change how we do business, redesign our service offering or partners e-commerce businesses or enter into burdensome royalty or license agreements. These license or royalty agreements, if required, may not be available on
acceptable terms, if at all, in the event of a successful claim of infringement. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover every claim that third parties could assert against us. Even unsuccessful claims could result in significant legal
fees and other expenses, diversion of managements time and disruptions in our business. Any of these claims could also harm our reputation.



We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, which could harm our margins and our business.



The market for the development and operation of e-commerce businesses is
continuously evolving and is intensely competitive. Increased competition could result in fewer successful opportunities to partner, price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could seriously harm our business,
results of operations and financial condition. We primarily compete with companies that can offer a full range of e-commerce services similar to the services we provide through our e-commerce platform, such as the Services Division of Amazon®, Digital River®, Commerce5, Foot Locker® (principally in the sporting goods category) and ValueVision Media. We also compete
with companies that provide some components of an e-commerce solution similar to those that we offer through our e-commerce platform, including Web site developers, third-party consultants and third-party fulfillment and customer service providers.
In addition, we compete with companies that provide components of an e-commerce solution that allow others to develop and operate their e-commerce business in-house. We also compete with online and offline businesses of a variety of retailers and
manufacturers in our targeted categories.

Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer base,
greater brand recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. They may be able to secure merchandise from vendors on more favorable terms and may be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies. They
may also receive investments from or enter into other commercial relationships with large, well-established companies with greater financial resources. Competitors in both the retail and e-commerce services industries also may be able to devote more
resources to technology development and marketing than we do.



We currently do not offer e-commerce services outside of the United States, Canada and Europe. Some of our competitors offer international e-commerce services and our existing and potential partners may find these competitors more
attractive for that reason.



Competition in the e-commerce
industry may intensify. Other companies in the retail and e-commerce service industries may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. Additionally, there are relatively low barriers to entry into the
e-commerce market. As various Internet market segments obtain large, loyal customer bases, participants in those segments may expand into the market segments in which we operate. In addition, new and expanded Web technologies may further intensify
the competitive nature of online retail. The nature of the Internet as an electronic marketplace facilitates competitive entry and comparison shopping and renders it inherently more competitive than conventional retailing formats. This increased
competition may reduce our sales, our ability to operate profitably, or both.



We may be subject to product liability claims that could be costly and time-consuming.



We sell products manufactured by third parties, some of which may be defective. We also sell some products that are manufactured by third parties for us.
If any product that we sell were to cause physical injury or injury to property, the injured party or parties could bring claims against us as the retailer or manufacturer of the product. These claims may not be covered by insurance and, even if
they are, our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover every claim that could be asserted. Similarly, we could be subject to claims that customers of our partners e-commerce businesses were harmed due to their reliance on our product
information, product selection guides, advice or instructions. If a successful claim were brought against us in excess of our insurance coverage, it could adversely affect our business. Even unsuccessful claims could result in the expenditure of
funds and management time and could have a negative impact on our business.



We may be liable if third parties misappropriate our customers personal information. Additionally, we are limited in our ability to use and disclose customer information.



Any security breach could expose us to risks of loss, litigation and
liability and could seriously disrupt our operations. If third parties are able to penetrate our network or telecommunications security or otherwise misappropriate our customers personal information or credit card information or if we give
third parties improper access to our customers personal information or credit card information, we could be subject to liability. This liability could include claims for unauthorized purchases with credit card information, impersonation or
other similar fraud claims. They could also include claims for other misuses of personal information, including unauthorized marketing purposes. These claims could result in litigation. Liability for misappropriation of this information could be
significant. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission and state agencies regularly investigate various companies use of customers personal information. We could incur additional expenses if new regulations regarding the security or use
of personal information are introduced or if government agencies investigate our privacy practices



Credit card fraud and other fraud could adversely affect our business.



We do not carry insurance against the risk of credit card fraud and other fraud, so the failure to adequately control
fraudulent transactions could increase our expenses. To date, we have not suffered material losses due to fraud. However, we may in the future suffer losses as a result of orders placed with fraudulent credit card data. Under current credit card
practices, we are liable for fraudulent credit card transactions because we do not obtain a cardholders signature. With respect to checks and installment sales, we generally are liable for fraudulent transactions.



If one or more states successfully assert that we should collect sales or
other taxes on the sale of our merchandise, our business could be harmed.



We currently collect sales or other similar taxes for goods sold by us and shipped into certain states. One or more local, state or foreign jurisdictions may seek to impose sales tax collection obligations on us or
our partners and other out-of-state companies that engage in e-commerce. Recently, certain large retailers, such as Wal-Mart, Target and Toys R Us, expanded their collection of sales tax on purchases made through affiliated Web sites.
Our business could be adversely affected if one or more states or any foreign country successfully asserts that we should collect sales or other taxes on the sale of merchandise through the e-commerce businesses we operate.

##### Table of Contents

In September 2003, we learned that we, along with several of our partners, were named in an action in the
Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, by a private litigant who is alleging that we, along with certain of our partners, wrongfully failed to collect and remit sales and use taxes for sales of personal property to customers in Illinois and
knowingly created records and statements falsely stating we were not required to collect or remit such taxes. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, unpaid taxes, interest, attorneys fees, civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation, and
treble damages under the Illinois Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act. We are aware that this same private litigant has filed similar actions against retailers in other states, and it is possible that we and/or partners may have been or may be
named in similar cases in other states. We do not believe that we are liable under existing laws and regulations for any failure to collect sales or other taxes relating to Internet sales in Illinois and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this
matter. However, we may incur substantial expenses in defending against this claim. In the event of a determination adverse to us, we may incur substantial monetary liability, and be required to change our business practices, either of which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.



Existing or future law or regulations could harm our business or marketing efforts.



We are subject to federal, state and local laws applicable to businesses in general and to e-commerce specifically. Due to the increasing growth and
popularity of the Internet and e-commerce, many laws and regulations relating to the Internet and online retailing are proposed and considered at the federal, state and local levels. These laws and regulations could cover issues such as taxation,
pricing, content, distribution, quality and delivery of products and services, electronic contracts, intellectual property rights, user privacy and information security.



For example, at least one state has enacted, and other states have proposed, legislation limiting the uses of personal
information collected online or requiring collectors of information to establish procedures to disclose and notify users of privacy and security policies, obtain consent from users for use and disclosure of information, or provide users with the
ability to access, correct and delete stored information. Even in the absence of such legislation, the Federal Trade Commission has settled several proceedings resulting in consent decrees in which Internet companies have been required to establish
programs regulating the manner in which personal information is collected from users and provided to third parties. We could become a party to a similar enforcement proceeding. These regulatory and enforcement efforts could also harm our ability to
collect demographic and personal information from users, which could be costly or adversely affect our marketing efforts.



The applicability of existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, intellectual property rights, taxation, libel, obscenity, qualification to
do business and export or import matters could also harm our business. Many of these laws may not contemplate or address the unique issues of the Internet or online retailing. Some laws that do contemplate or address those unique issues, such as the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act and the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, are only beginning to be interpreted by the courts and their applicability and reach are therefore uncertain. These current and future laws and regulations could reduce our ability to
operate efficiently.



From time to time, we may acquire or
invest in other companies. There are risks associated with potential acquisitions and investments and we may not achieve the expected benefits of future acquisitions and investments.



If we are presented with appropriate opportunities, we may make investments in complementary companies, products or
technologies or we may purchase other companies. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of any investment or acquisition. We may be subject to unanticipated problems and liabilities of acquired companies. We may not be able to successfully
assimilate the additional personnel, operations, acquired technology or products or services into our business. Any acquisition may strain our existing financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures. If we do not successfully
integrate any acquired business, the expenditures on integration efforts will reduce our cash position without us being able to realize the expected benefits of the acquisition. In addition, key personnel of an acquired company may decide not to
work for us. These difficulties could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. Further, the physical expansion in facilities that could occur as a result of any acquisition may result in
disruptions that could seriously impair our business. Finally, we may have to use our cash resources, incur debt or issue additional equity securities to pay for other acquisitions or investments, which could increase our leverage or be dilutive to
our stockholders.



The consideration we received in exchange
for the sale of certain assets related to Ashford.com, Inc. may be subject to a number of risks.



In connection with the sale of certain assets of Ashford.com to Odimo Acquisition Corp., we received shares of Odimo common stock. Odimo recently became a
public company and a well-established public market for its common stock does not exist. If Odimo fails to perform, the value of the Odimo common stock we hold may decrease below the amount at which we have valued this stock on our balance sheet and
we may be required to take a charge to earnings.

We may further expand our business internationally, causing our business to become increasingly
susceptible to numerous international business risks and challenges.



We believe that the current globalization of the economy requires businesses to consider pursuing international expansion. We recently began shipping certain products to Canada and other countries. In the future, we
may expand our international efforts. International sales are subject to inherent risks and challenges that could adversely affect our business, including:



| |  |  | the need to develop new supplier and manufacturer relationships, particularly because major manufacturers may require that our international operations deal with local distributors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | compliance with international legal and regulatory requirements and tariffs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | managing fluctuations in currency exchange rates;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential adverse tax consequences;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | uncertain political and economic climates;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential higher incidence of fraud;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | price controls or other restrictions on foreign currency; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties in obtaining export and import licenses and compliance with applicable export controls.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Any negative impact from our international business efforts could negatively impact our business, operating results and
financial condition as a whole. In addition, gains and losses on the conversion of foreign payments into U. S. dollars may contribute to fluctuations in our results of operations and fluctuating exchange rates could cause reduced revenues and/or
gross margins from non-dollar-denominated international sales.



In addition, if we expand further internationally, we may face additional competition challenges. Local companies may have a substantial competitive advantage because their greater understanding of, and focus on, the local customer. In
addition, governments in foreign jurisdictions may regulate e-commerce or other online services in such areas as content, privacy, network security, copyright, encryption, taxation, or distribution. We also may not be able to hire, train, motivate
and manage the required personnel, which may limit our growth in international market segments.



The uncertainty regarding the general economy may reduce our revenues.



Our revenue and rate of growth depends on the continued growth of demand for the products offered by our partners, and our
business is affected by general economic and business conditions. A decrease in demand, whether caused by changes in consumer spending or a weakening of the U.S. economy or the local economies outside of the United States where we sell products, may
result in decreased revenue or growth. Terrorist attacks and armed hostilities create economic and consumer uncertainty that could adversely affect our revenue or growth.



Our success is dependent upon our executive officers and other key personnel.



Our success depends to a significant degree upon the contribution of our
executive officers and other key personnel, particularly Michael G. Rubin, chairman of the board, co-president and chief executive officer. Although we have employment agreements with most of our executive officers and key personnel, these employees
could terminate their employment with us at any time. Due to the competition for highly qualified personnel, we cannot be sure that we will be able to retain or attract executive, managerial or other key personnel. We have obtained key person life
insurance for Mr. Rubin in the amount of $9.0 million. We have not obtained key person life insurance for any of our other executive officers or key personnel.



We may be unable to hire and retain skilled technical, operations, merchandising, sales, marketing, and business management personnel which could
limit our growth.



Our future success depends on our
ability to continue to identify, attract, retain and motivate skilled technical, operations, merchandising, sales, marketing and business management personnel. We intend to continue to seek to hire a significant number of skilled personnel. Due to
intense competition for these individuals from our competitors and other employers, we may not be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel in the future. Our failure to attract and retain the experienced and highly trained personnel that
are integral to our business may limit our growth.

##### Table of Contents

There are limitations on the liabilities of our directors and executive officers. Under certain
circumstances, we are obligated to indemnify our directors and executive officers against liability and expenses incurred by them in their service to us.



Pursuant to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and under Delaware law, our directors are not liable to us or our stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except for liability for breach of a directors duty of loyalty, acts or omissions by a director not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, dividend
payments or stock repurchases that are unlawful under Delaware law or any transaction in which a director has derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive
officers. These agreements, among other things, require us to indemnify each director and executive officer for certain expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts, incurred by any such person in any action or
proceeding, including any action by us or in our right, arising out of the persons services as one of our directors or executive officers. The costs associated with actions requiring indemnification under these agreements could be harmful to
our business.



If we fail to maintain an effective system of
internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders and partners could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business, the
trading price of our common stock and our ability to retain our current partners and obtain new partners.



Beginning in early fiscal 2004, we began a process to document and evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting in order to satisfy the
requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. In this regard, management has been dedicating internal resources, has
engaged outside consultants and has adopted a detailed work plan to (i) assess and document the adequacy of internal controls over financial reporting, (ii) take steps to improve control processes, where appropriate, (iii) validate through testing
that controls are functioning as documented and (iv) implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to correct any issues in the design or operating effectiveness of internal
controls over financial reporting or fail to prevent fraud, current and potential stockholders and partners could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business, the trading price of our common stock and our ability to
retain our current partners and obtain new partners.



A
change in accounting standards for employee stock options is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 123R Share-Based Payment, or FAS 123R. FAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. In addition, FAS
123R will cause unrecognized expense related to options vesting after the date of initial adoption to be recognized as a charge to results of operations over the remaining vesting period. In April 2005, the SEC delayed the initial adoption of FAS
123R from interim periods that begin after June 15, 2005, to annual periods that begin after June 15, 2005. We are continuing to evaluate the requirements of FAS 123R and expect that we will record substantial non cash compensation expenses. The
adoption of FAS 123R is not expected to have a significant effect on our financial condition or cash flows but is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.



Risks Related to Our Common Stock



Our operating results have fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate
significantly, which may cause the market price of our common stock to be volatile.



Our annual and quarterly operating results have and may continue to fluctuate significantly due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Because our operating results may be volatile and
difficult to predict, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be a good indication of our future performance. Our operating results may also fall below our published expectations and the expectations of securities analysts and
investors, which likely will cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly.



Factors that may cause our operating results to fluctuate or harm our business include but are not limited to the following:



| |  |  | our ability to obtain new partners or to retain existing partners;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the performance of one or more of our partners e-commerce businesses;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our and our partners ability to obtain new customers at a reasonable cost or encourage repeat purchases;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | the number of visitors to the e-commerce businesses operated by us or our ability to convert these visitors into customers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our and our partners ability to offer an appealing mix of products or to sell products that we purchase;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to adequately develop, maintain, and upgrade our partners e-commerce businesses or the technology and systems we use to process customers orders and
payments;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the timing and costs of upgrades and developments of our system and infrastructure;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the ability of our competitors to offer new or superior e-commerce businesses, services or products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | price competition that results in lower profit margins or losses;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the seasonality of our business, especially the importance of our fiscal fourth quarter to our business;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our inability to obtain or develop specific products or brands or unwillingness of vendors to sell their products to us;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unanticipated fluctuations in the amount of consumer spending on various products that we sell, which tend to be discretionary spending items;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the cost of advertising and the amount of free shipping and other promotions we offer;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our operations;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our inability to manage our shipping costs on a profitable basis or unexpected increases in shipping costs or delivery times, particularly during the holiday season;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | inflation of prices of fuel and gasoline and other raw materials that impact our costs;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | technical difficulties, system security breaches, system downtime or Internet slowdowns;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our inability to manage inventory levels or control inventory shrinkage;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our inability to manage fulfillment operations or provide adequate levels of customer service or our inability to forecast the proper staffing levels in fulfillment and customer
service;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an increase in the level of our product returns or our inability to effectively process returns;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | government regulations related to the Internet or e-commerce which could increase the costs associated with operating our businesses, including requiring the collection of sales tax
on all purchases through the e-commerce businesses we operate; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unfavorable economic conditions in general or specific to the Internet or e-commerce, which could reduce demand for the products sold through our partners e-commerce
businesses.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We have never paid dividends on
our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.



We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate that any cash dividends will be declared or paid in the foreseeable future. As a result, holders of our common stock will not receive a
return, if any, on their investment unless they sell their shares of our common stock.



We are controlled by certain principal stockholders.



As of August 5, 2005, Michael G. Rubin, our chairman, co-president and chief executive officer, beneficially owned 16.4%, entities affiliated with SOFTBANK Capital Partners LP, SOFTBANK Capital LP and SOFTBANK Capital
Advisor Fund LP, or SOFTBANK, beneficially owned 18.5%, and entities affiliated with QVC beneficially owned 19.2% of our outstanding common stock, including warrants and options to purchase common stock, which are exercisable on or before
October 4, 2005. If they decide to act together, any two of Mr. Rubin, SOFTBANK, and QVC would be in a position to exercise considerable control, and all three would be in a position to exercise complete control, over most matters requiring
stockholder approval, including the election or removal of directors, approval of significant corporate transactions and the ability generally to direct our affairs. Furthermore, pursuant to the stock purchase agreements, SOFTBANK and QVC each have
the right to designate up to two members of our board of directors. This concentration of ownership and SOFTBANKs and QVCs right to designate



41



---

##### Table of Contents

members to our board of directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us, including transactions in which stockholders might
otherwise receive a premium over prevailing market prices for our common stock. See Management  Right to Designate Directors. Furthermore, Mr. Rubin has entered into voting agreements with each of SOFTBANK and QVC, and SOFTBANK and
QVC have entered into voting agreements with each other. The parties to these voting agreements have agreed to support the election of the directors designated by each of the other parties. See Management  Voting Agreements.



It may be difficult for a third-party to acquire us and
this could depress our stock price.



Certain provisions of
our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Delaware law may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing transactions that involve any actual or threatened change in control. Under our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation, our board of directors may issue preferred stock from time to time in one or more series with such terms, rights, preferences and designations as the board may determine and without any vote of the stockholders, unless
otherwise required by law.



In addition, we are subject to
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which, subject to certain exceptions, restricts certain transactions and business combinations between a corporation and a stockholder owning 15% or more of the corporations outstanding
voting stock for a period of three years from the date the stockholder becomes a 15% stockholder. In addition to discouraging a third party from seeking to acquire control of us, the foregoing provisions could impair the ability of existing
stockholders to remove and replace our management and/or our board of directors.



Holders of our convertible notes have the right to require us to repurchase the notes upon certain changes in control of us or termination of trading of our common stock on a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market. These repurchase rights could discourage a third party from seeking to acquire control of us.



Because the ownership of more than a majority of our common stock is concentrated in a few larger stockholders, a third party will not be able to acquire
control of us without the agreement of some of these stockholders.



Because many investors consider a change of control a desirable path to liquidity, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company may reduce the number of investors interested in our common stock, which could depress our stock
price.



See - We are controlled by certain principal
stockholders.



The price of our common stock may
fluctuate significantly.



The price of our common stock on
the Nasdaq National Market has been volatile. During fiscal 2004, the high and low sale prices of our common stock ranged from $7.04 to $18.72 per share. During fiscal 2003, the high and low sale prices of our common stock ranged from $1.55 to
$13.05 per share. We expect that the market price of our common stock may continue to fluctuate.



Our common stock price can fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among others:



| |  |  | our performance and prospects;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | the performance and prospects of our partners;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | investor perception of us and the industry in which we operate;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in earnings estimates or buy/sell recommendations by analysts;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general financial and other market conditions; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general economic conditions.
| | - |  | ----------------------------



In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular
company. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness



Our convertible notes could adversely affect our financial condition. We are not prohibited from incurring additional debt.



On June 1, 2005, we completed an offering of $57.5
million aggregate principal amount of our convertible notes due 2025. Including these notes, we have approximately $72.0 million of indebtedness outstanding. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For example, it could:



| |  |  | increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limit our ability to obtain additional financing;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | require the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the payment of interest and principal on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of
such cash flow to fund our growth strategy, working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to competitors with less debt; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make it difficult or impossible for us to pay the principal amount of the convertible notes at maturity, thereby causing an event of default under the convertible notes.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We may incur substantial additional debt in the
future. The terms of the convertible notes will not prohibit us or our subsidiaries from doing so. If new debt is added, the related risks described above could intensify.



Holders of our common stock will be subordinated to our convertible notes and other indebtedness.



In the event of our liquidation or insolvency, holders of common stock would
receive a distribution only after payment in full of all principal and interest due to holders of our convertible notes and other creditors, and there may be little or no proceeds to distribute to holders of common stock at such time.



ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



There have been no significant changes in market risk for the six-months ended July 2, 2005. See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2005, as amended by Form 10-K/Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on May 2, 2005 and further amended by
Form 10-K/Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on May 6, 2005.



ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)), our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.



(b) Changes in Internal Controls. During the most recently completed
fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
