Description of Business
|
|
Prior to February 2006, our search and search-related businesses were operated
by various entities owned or controlled by Sohu. In February 2006, Sohu
undertook a reorganization of its search and search-related businesses, whereby
most of the business was transferred to us. As part of the reorganization, Sohu
established Sogou BVI, Sogou Technology, and Sogou HK.
In October 2010, Sohu undertook another reorganization in preparation for our
issuance of Pre-IPO Series A Preferred Shares in a financing transaction, and
transferred other businesses and employees related to the search and
search-related businesses to us. We then issued and sold 24,000,000, 14,400,000,
and 38,400,000 Pre-IPO Series A Preferred Shares to Alibaba, China Web Search
(HK) Limited ("China Web"), and Photon. In June 2012, Sohu repurchased the
24,000,000 Pre-IPO Series A Preferred Shares held by Alibaba.
