results

鈥淨VC had a solid quarter, with revenue growth in all markets. We were impressed that Japan was back to growth so quickly after the tragedies of the spring,鈥 stated Greg Maffei, Liberty President and CEO. 鈥淎t Starz, we were pleased to announce our partnership with BBC Worldwide and look forward to producing and distributing original content with them. Additionally, Starz once again grew subscribers and posted strong financial results. We continue to pursue the split-off of Liberty Capital and Liberty Starz. Bank of New York鈥檚 appeal of our win in Delaware Chancery Court will be heard in the Delaware Supreme Court in mid-September and we expect to complete the split-off in the third quarter.鈥
LIBERTY INTERACTIVE GROUP 鈥 Liberty Interactive group鈥檚 revenue increased 9% to $2.2 billion and adjusted OIBDA increased 5% to $450 million, while operating income increased 5% to $288 million. The increase in revenue, adjusted OIBDA, and operating income for the quarter was due to favorable results at QVC and the eCommerce companies.
QVC
QVC鈥檚 consolidated net revenue increased 8% in the second quarter to $1.9 billion, adjusted OIBDA increased 4% to $418 million and operating income increased 4% to $281 million.
鈥淲e continue to build momentum even in these uncertain economic times with consolidated second quarter net revenue growth of 8%,鈥 stated Mike George, QVC President and CEO. 鈥淓ach market experienced net revenue growth in local currency including Japan which has rebounded nicely after the tragic events experienced in late March. Excluding our QVC Italy start up operations and the previously discussed change in our QCard program with GE Money Bank, our adjusted OIBDA growth would have been 8% and operating income would have been 11%. We continue to see strong global new customer net revenue growth and our global eCommerce revenue now represents 30% of our worldwide revenue. We are excited about our strong product and programming line-up for the third quarter as we expand our presence in New York鈥檚 Fashion Night Out this September with the exciting premieres of John Hardy jewelry and Heidi Klum accessories. In addition, QVC will broadcast live, select programs from the LA Live complex, featuring a range of QVC personalities and brands, enabling us to provide a localized look and feel for our West Coast audience during their prime television viewing hours.鈥
QVC鈥檚 domestic revenue increased 3% in the second quarter to $1.2 billion and adjusted OIBDA increased 1% to $305 million compared to the second quarter 2010. The product mix continued to show a steady growth in accessories, apparel and home and a decline in jewelry sales. The average selling price increased 8% from $48.10 to $52.02 while total units sold decreased 4% to 25.7 million. Returns as a percent of gross product revenue remained relatively consistent to the prior year period at 18.5%. QVC.com sales as a percentage of US sales grew from 32% in the second quarter of 2010 to 35% in the second quarter of 2011. Overall, the US adjusted OIBDA margin decreased 64 basis points to 24.8% for the quarter due to the previous disclosed change in our QCard arrangement which negatively impacted adjusted OIBDA by approximately $9.0 million. Excluding the negative impact of this arrangement, US adjusted OIBDA increased 4% for the second quarter with a slight increase in adjusted OIBDA margin primarily driven by favorable product margins.
QVC鈥檚 international revenue increased 18% in the second quarter to $666 million from $565 million including the impact of favorable exchange rates in each of our markets. International adjusted OIBDA increased 13% to $113 million and adjusted OIBDA margins decreased 73 basis points for the quarter. QVC鈥檚 international second quarter results include $13 million of adjusted OIBDA loss compared to $5 million in the prior year related to QVC Italy operations that launched in October 2010. Excluding the effects of QVC Italy, international adjusted OIBDA and adjusted OIBDA margins would have increased 20% and 51 basis points, respectively, for the quarter.
QVC UK鈥檚 revenue grew 4% in local currency in the second quarter due primarily to increased sales in apparel and most home categories. These increases were partially offset by declines in fine jewelry. QVC UK鈥檚 average selling price in local currency decreased 1% and units sold increased 5% for the second quarter. QVC UK鈥檚 adjusted OIBDA increased 4% and the adjusted OIBDA margin increased 59 basis points due primarily to a favorable inventory obsolescence provision and freight costs offset somewhat by higher distribution costs associated with the QVC Beauty Channel, QVC UK鈥檚 second channel, being launched part time on the Freeview DTT platform.
QVC Germany鈥檚 revenue grew 7% in local currency in the quarter driven by increased sales of apparel, jewelry, and nutrition products. QVC Germany鈥檚 average selling price in local currency increased 1% for the second quarter and units sold increased 11%. QVC Germany鈥檚 returns as a percent of gross product revenue increased 251 basis points from the prior period due in part to a product mix shift to higher return categories including apparel and jewelry. QVC Germany鈥檚 adjusted OIBDA increased 21% in local currency and the adjusted OIBDA margin increased 199 basis points due to favorable product margins and inventory obsolescence.
QVC Japan鈥檚 revenue grew 1% in local currency in the second quarter due to increased sales primarily in apparel. QVC Japan鈥檚 market has rebounded after the tragic events experienced in March with positive year over year growth achieved in May and June. QVC Japan achieved growth of 13% in units sold for the quarter with the average selling price in local currency declining 10%. QVC Japan鈥檚 adjusted OIBDA in local currency declined 2% and the adjusted OIBDA margin declined 72 basis points due to lower product margins and higher commission expense.
QVC Italy continues the trend from the first quarter - sequential sales growth following a softer than anticipated launch. These sales are primarily in the home and beauty product areas. In the quarter, QVC Italy began to invest in a strong marketing campaign to build awareness and accelerate new customer acquisition, and it plans to monitor these and other fixed costs as they grow into their cost structure.
QVC鈥檚 outstanding bank and bond debt was $2.6 billion at June 30, 2011.
eCommerce Businesses
In the aggregate, the eCommerce businesses increased revenue 18% to $347 million for the quarter. Adjusted OIBDA increased 29% to $36 million for the quarter and operating income increased 138% to $19 million. Each of the eCommerce businesses reported an increase in revenue for the quarter as a result of acquisitions and deconsolidations, increased marketing efforts and increased conversion resulting from site optimization and broader inventory offerings. The second quarter of 2010 included the results of a start-up, Lockerz, which was deconsolidated in the third quarter of 2010. Excluding the results of the start-up, adjusted OIBDA increased 11% and operating income increased 13%.
Share Repurchases
There were no repurchases of Liberty Interactive stock from May 1, 2011 through July 31, 2011. Liberty has approximately $740 million remaining under its Liberty Interactive stock repurchase authorization.
The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Interactive group are engaged in, or are ownership interests in companies that are engaged in, video and on-line commerce, and currently include Liberty鈥檚 subsidiaries QVC, Provide Commerce, Backcountry.com, Bodybuilding.com, Celebrate Interactive, CommerceHub, and The Right Start, and its interests in, HSN, Tree.com, Interval Leisure Group, Expedia and Lockerz. Liberty has identified wholly-owned QVC as the principal operating segment of the Liberty Interactive group.
LIBERTY STARZ GROUP 鈥 The attributed financials in the 10-Q, continue to show the Liberty Starz results for the first through the third quarters of 2010 as only the legacy Starz Entertainment business since Starz Media was not attributed to Liberty Starz until September 30, 2010. However since the current results of Liberty Starz primarily represent the results of Starz LLC, for discussion purposes in the 10-Q, this press release and as an additional section in the slides, the historical results for the legacy Starz Media businesses have been combined with the historical results of the legacy Starz Entertainment business, including the impacts of intercompany eliminations.
Starz鈥檚 revenue increased 5% to $403 million for the second quarter, an increase of $20 million. Revenue for the second quarter increased as a result of an $8 million increase due to a higher effective rate for the Starz Channels鈥 services, $6 million due to growth in the average number of subscriptions and $3 million in additional ancillary revenue related to international television distribution rights and home video for STARZ original content. The remaining increase was primarily attributable to the home video performance of The King鈥檚 Speech in the current period which was partially offset by no theatrical releases of films in 2011.
Starz鈥檚 adjusted OIBDA increased 146% to $118 million, a $70 million increase, and operating income increased to $112 million, a 160% increase. The increase in adjusted OIBDA was a combination of increased results by the legacy Starz Entertainment business and the decisions made regarding the legacy Starz Media businesses in the prior year. As discussed above, the reduced theatrical releases resulted in lower revenue which was more than offset by no current period spending on marketing and advertising associated with the theatrical exhibition of such productions, lower production and acquisition costs and lower home video costs. STARZ鈥 subscription units increased 10% and ENCORE subscriptions increased 3% compared to the second quarter of 2010.
鈥淭he business of Starz Entertainment continued its solid performance in the second quarter with STARZ hitting an all-time high of 19 million subscribers thanks in part to our investments in a strong programming lineup of exclusive first-run movies and quality original programming,鈥 said Chris Albrecht, Starz, LLC, President and CEO. 鈥淲e are very proud of the agreement announced yesterday with BBC Worldwide Productions 鈥 a deal that will accelerate prudently our growth into STARZ originals in the years ahead. ENCORE entered into original programming on a more targeted scale last week as part of a series of wide-ranging ENCORE package enhancements, including the launch of ENCORE ESPA脩OL, the company鈥檚 first 24/7 Spanish-language premium channel. Meanwhile, the legacy Starz Media businesses continue to reflect improved operational performance.鈥
Share Repurchases
There were no repurchases of Liberty Starz stock from May 1, 2011 through July 31, 2011. Liberty has approximately $447 million remaining under its Liberty Starz stock repurchase authorization.
The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Starz group are primarily engaged in the production and distribution of video programming and related businesses.
LIBERTY CAPITAL GROUP 鈥 Liberty Capital group鈥檚 revenue decreased 33% to $135 million while adjusted OIBDA increased to $7 million and operating losses improved by $69 million to a $14 million loss for the second quarter. The decrease in revenue and increase in adjusted OIBDA and operating income is primarily due to the impact of the change in attribution of Starz Media from Liberty Capital to Liberty Starz which was effective September 30, 2010.
Share Repurchases
From May 1, 2011 through July 31, 2011, Liberty repurchased approximately 55,097 shares of Series A Liberty Capital common stock at an average cost per share of $78.27 for total cash consideration of $4.3 million.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release includes a presentation of adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for each of Liberty鈥檚 tracking stock groups and each of QVC (and certain of its subsidiaries), the eCommerce businesses, and Starz, LLC, together with a reconciliation to that group鈥檚 or entity鈥檚 operating income, as determined under GAAP. Liberty defines adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock and other equity-based compensation) and excludes from that definition depreciation and amortization, restructuring and impairment charges and gains on legal settlements that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP. Further, this press release includes adjusted OIBDA margin which is also a non-GAAP financial measure. Liberty defines adjusted OIBDA margin as adjusted OIBDA divided by revenue.
Liberty believes adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, including each business鈥 ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because adjusted OIBDA is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is not meant to replace or supersede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets. Please see the attached schedules for applicable reconciliations.
SCHEDULE 1
The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted OIBDA for each of Liberty Interactive group, Liberty Starz group, and Liberty Capital group to that group鈥檚 operating income calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2010, September 30, 2010, December 31, 2010, March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively.
