"QVC had a solid finish to the year, with particular strength in the established international markets," stated Greg Maffei, Liberty President and CEO. "Starz results exceeded revenue and met adjusted OIBDA guidance and we are thrilled that our first movie as part of our home video distribution agreement with The Weinstein Company, The King's Speech, won best picture last night at the Oscars(R). In February we changed the attribution of the 3.125% exchangeable debt from Liberty Capital to Liberty Interactive and continue to make progress on the split-off with a shareholder vote set for April."

LIBERTY INTERACTIVE GROUP - Liberty Interactive group's revenue increased 6% to $2.9 billion in the fourth quarter and 8% to $8.9 billion for the year. Adjusted OIBDA increased 1% to $564 million for the fourth quarter and 6% to $1.7 billion for the year, while operating income was flat for the fourth quarter and increased 6% for the year. The increase in revenue, adjusted OIBDA, and operating income for the year was primarily due to favorable results at QVC.

QVC

QVC's consolidated revenue increased 4% in the fourth quarter to $2.5 billion and 6% to $7.8 billion for the year. Adjusted OIBDA increased 1% to $533 million in the fourth quarter and 7% to $1.7 billion for the year. Operating income increased 1% to $393 million in the fourth quarter and 11% to $1.1 billion for the year. Excluding the negative effects of the new agreement with GE Money Bank and the Italy launch, adjusted OIBDA increased 5% in the fourth quarter and 10% for the year.

"Our fourth quarter results continued the positive trend with our consolidated adjusted OIBDA margin, excluding our start up operations related to Italy and the negative impact of our new agreement with GE Money Bank, improving 24 basis points over a particularly strong fourth quarter in 2009," stated Mike George, QVC President and CEO. "For 2010, we had some of the most balanced results across markets that we have seen in many years. Every established market increased revenue growth and adjusted OIBDA margins, achieved strong eCommerce growth and enjoyed growth in the count of new customers. We made continued progress in broadening the appeal and accessibility of our brand across both markets and platforms. Among the highlights of our achievements this year, we launched a number of exciting new platforms - from mobile applications to second channels and simulcasts; we continued to elevate our products and brands and engaged our viewers with compelling programming including big events like Fashion's Night Out; and with Italy, we launched our first new market in a decade."

QVC's US revenue increased 3% in the fourth quarter to $1.7 billion and 5% to $5.2 billion for the year. Sales of electronics, beauty and accessories increased while jewelry sales declined. The average selling price for the fourth quarter increased 11% from $50.37 to $56.00 while total units sold decreased 6% to 33.2 million. For the year, the average selling price increased 4% from $49.01 to $51.19 and units sold increased 2% to 110.6 million. Returns as a percent of gross product revenue increased from 16.4% to 16.8% for the quarter and increased from 17.6% to 18.0% for the year. QVC.com sales as a percentage of US sales grew from 31% in the fourth quarter of 2009 to 36% in the fourth quarter of 2010 and grew from 29% to 33% for the year. QVC US adjusted OIBDA decreased 1% for the fourth quarter and increased 8% for the year. Overall, the US adjusted OIBDA results were negatively impacted by $9 million for the quarter and $14 million for the year due to the change in terms of QVC's arrangement with GE Money Bank for its QCard that was effective in August 2010, as previously disclosed. Excluding the negative impact of this arrangement, the US adjusted OIBDA increased 1% and 9% for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, respectively. The US adjusted OIBDA margin decreased 83 basis points to 21% for the quarter primarily due to the previously disclosed change in the agreement with GE Money Bank and a slight decrease in initial margins due to a growth in electronics. The US adjusted OIBDA margin increased 46 basis points for the year due primarily to increased gross margins resulting from a lower inventory obsolescence provision and lower freight expense. QVC US operating income decreased 2% to $261 million for the fourth quarter and increased 12% to $782 million for the year.

QVC's international revenue increased 7% in the fourth quarter to $802 million and 8% for the year to $2.6 billion including the impact of unfavorable exchange rates in the UK, Germany and Italy and favorable exchange rates in Japan. International adjusted OIBDA increased 6% to $169 million for the quarter and 7% to $482 million for the year. Included in QVC's international results is $14 million of adjusted OIBDA loss for the quarter and $32 million of adjusted OIBDA loss for the year related to QVC Italy operations that launched as planned in October 2010. Excluding the effects of Italy, international adjusted OIBDA increased 14% for the quarter and 13% for the year and adjusted OIBDA margins increased 144 basis points and 90 basis points for the quarter and the year, respectively. Excluding the effect of exchange rates and start-up costs for Italy, QVC's international revenue increased 8% for both the quarter and year and adjusted OIBDA increased 15% for the quarter and 12% for the year. QVC international operating income increased 7% to $132 million for the quarter and 11% to $348 million for the year.

QVC UK's revenue grew 6% and 5% in local currency for the quarter and the year, respectively, through increased sales in apparel, beauty and accessories. The UK's average selling price in local currency was relatively flat for the quarter and decreased 2% for the year and units sold increased 8% for both the fourth quarter and the year. QVC UK's adjusted OIBDA margin increased 156 basis points for the quarter and 72 basis points for the year due primarily to warehouse and freight savings as well as gaining leverage on fixed costs and lower personnel expenses.

QVC Germany's revenue grew 9% and 7% in local currency for the quarter and the year, respectively, through increased sales in home, accessories and beauty. QVC Germany's average selling price in local currency decreased 4% and 1% for the quarter and year, respectively, while units sold increased 15% and 9%, respectively, for the quarter and the year. QVC Germany experienced an increase of 195 basis points and 67 basis points in adjusted OIBDA margin percentage for the quarter and the year, respectively, due primarily to increased product margins due to a shift from electronics to fashion product areas.

QVC Japan's revenue grew 7% and 10% in local currency for the quarter and the year, respectively, through increased sales in apparel and beauty. QVC Japan achieved growth of 13% and 17% in units sold for the quarter and the year, respectively with the average selling price in local currency declining 6% in both the quarter and the year. For the full year, QVC Japan exceeded $1 billion in revenue, the first market outside the US to achieve that milestone. QVC Japan's adjusted OIBDA margin increased 77 basis points for the quarter and 96 basis points for the year primarily as a result of reductions in cable operator commission expense due to favorable renegotiated contract terms as well as attaining leverage on fixed costs due to the increase in revenue.

QVC's outstanding bank and bond debt was $2.8 billion and QVC had $1.2 billion available under its bank credit facility at December 31, 2010.

eCommerce Businesses

In the aggregate, the eCommerce businesses grew revenue 27% to $365 million for fourth quarter and 18% to $1.1 billion for the year. Adjusted OIBDA increased 38% to $47 million for the fourth quarter and decreased 8% to $103 million for the year, while operating income increased 65% or $11 million for the quarter and decreased 26% or $14 million for the year. Overall revenue growth was partially offset by lower commission revenue earned for referring customers to third-party on-line discount services. In the first quarter of 2010, a decision was made to change the way these promotions are offered which reduced the revenue earned in 2010 by $25 million. Revenue earned from commissions yielded significantly higher margins than product sales and therefore the reduction in this revenue more negatively impacted adjusted OIBDA on a percentage basis. Furthermore, during the year increased marketing spend grew revenue and new customer names but negatively impacted adjusted OIBDA margins. During the fourth quarter growth in revenue and adjusted OIBDA was driven by product revenue growth and improved gross margins, offset by a $5 million reduction in commission revenue as previously discussed.

Share Repurchases

There were no repurchases of Liberty Interactive stock from October 30, 2010 through January 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's 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 - Results for the Liberty Starz group include twelve months of legacy Starz Entertainment business operations and three months of Starz Media operations due to the change in attribution of Starz Media from Liberty Capital to Liberty Starz effective as of September 30, 2010.

Liberty Starz group's revenue increased 33% to $405 million for the fourth quarter and 11% to $1.3 billion for the year. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the addition of the Starz Media business in the fourth quarter combined with increases in the average number of subscriptions for the Starz Channels' networks and rate increases and ancillary revenues related to original programming, primarily Spartacus: Blood and Sand. Liberty Starz group's adjusted OIBDA increased 43% to $106 million in the fourth quarter and 7% to $401 million for the year. The increase in adjusted OIBDA was due to increases in the average number of subscriptions to our channels, associated increases in subscription rates, ancillary revenue from our original programming, partially offset by higher programming expenses related to increased airings of original programming in 2010 and the addition of the Starz Media business in the fourth quarter. Operating income increased 27% to $62 million for the quarter and 20% to $327 million for the year.

Starz LLC's revenue increased 33% to $400 million for the quarter and 11% to $1.3 billion for the year. Adjusted OIBDA increased 41% to $110 million for the quarter and 8% to $415 million for the year. The increases in revenue and adjusted OIBDA for the quarter and the year were primarily due to the change in attribution of Starz Media from Liberty Capital to Liberty Starz in the fourth quarter. Starz' subscription units increased 8% and Encore subscriptions increased 7% vs. the fourth quarter 2009.

Excluding the effects of Starz Media and corporate and other, revenue for the legacy Starz Entertainment business increased 6% for the quarter and 5% for the year and adjusted OIBDA increased 31% for the quarter and 6% for the year.

"Starz Entertainment posted another year of strong results in 2010, with highs achieved in revenue, adjusted OIBDA, and year-end subscriptions for both the Starz and Encore flagship channels," said Chris Albrecht, Starz, LLC, President and CEO. "We are excited for 2011, our first year with a full slate of original programming. The Spartacus: Gods of the Arena prequel showed the continued vitality of the franchise, with even stronger viewership than Spartacus: Blood and Sand achieved last year. We were also very pleased with the multi-year, multi-platform distribution agreement announced last month with The Weinstein Group. This deal leverages the sales and distribution infrastructure already in place with Anchor Bay Entertainment."

Share Repurchases

There were no repurchases of Liberty Starz stock from October 30, 2010 through January 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 has identified Starz, LLC as the principal operating segment of the Liberty Starz group. Starz, LLC is managed based on the business units of the Starz Channels, the legacy Starz Entertainment business, and the home video, television, digital media and theatrical businesses, the legacy Starz Media business.

LIBERTY CAPITAL GROUP - Liberty Capital group's revenue decreased 41% to $91 million in the fourth quarter and increased 9% to $708 million for the year. The revenue decrease for the quarter was primarily due to the change in attribution of Starz Media from Liberty Capital to Liberty Starz. Adjusted OIBDA losses decreased by $76 million for the fourth quarter and $98 million for the year. The increase in revenue and decrease in adjusted OIBDA losses for the year were primarily due to TruePosition's delivery of the final specified upgrade under their AT&T contract. As a result, TruePosition was able to resume the amortization of previously deferred revenue and deferred costs under that contract. Operating income increased to $24 million for the fourth quarter and operating losses improved by 50% or $131 million for the year.

Total attributed Liberty Interactive group cash increased $154 million, primarily due to $218 million acquired in the IAC exchange and from cash flow from operations at QVC. These cash inflows were partially offset by $300 million in repayments on the QVC Bank Credit Facility. Total attributed Interactive group debt decreased as a result of these repayments offset by $5 million of foreign currency exchange.

Total attributed Liberty Starz group cash decreased $44 million, primarily as a result of the payout of stock compensation held by the founder and former CEO of Starz Entertainment. These payments were partially offset by cash flow from operations at Starz LLC. Total attributed Starz group debt increased $6 million.

Total attributed Liberty Capital group cash decreased $348 million, primarily due to $127 million of LCAPA stock repurchases and $252 million of taxes paid in the fourth quarter. There was no change in total attributed Capital group debt during the fourth quarter.

The offer and sale of shares in the proposed split-off will only be made pursuant to an effective registration statement. Liberty stockholders and other investors are urged to read the definitive registration statement to be filed with the SEC, including the proxy statement/prospectus to be contained therein (preliminary filings of which have been made with the SEC), because they will contain important information about the split-off.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release includes a presentation of adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for each of Liberty's 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's or entity's 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' 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's operating income calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
