SABRE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.     General Information

Sabre Holdings Corporation ("Sabre Holdings") is a Delaware holding company. Sabre Inc. is the principal operating subsidiary and sole direct subsidiary of Sabre Holdings. Sabre Inc. or its direct or indirect subsidiaries conduct all of our businesses. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to the "company", "we", "our", "ours" and "us" refer to Sabre Holdings and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.

We are a world leader in travel commerce, retailing travel products and providing distribution and technology solutions for the travel industry. Through our Sabre® global distribution system ("Sabre system" or "Sabre GDS") subscribers can access information about, and can book reservations for, airline trips, hotel stays, car rentals, cruises and tour packages, among other things. Our Sabre Travel Network business operates the Sabre GDS and markets and distributes travel-related products and services through the travel agency channel. We engage in consumer-direct and business-direct travel services and distribution through Travelocity and engage in business-direct travel services through GetThere. In addition, our Sabre Airline Solutions business is a leading provider of technology and services, including development and consulting services, to airlines and other travel providers. Disaggregated information relating to our business segments is presented in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ended December 31, 2003. Our quarterly financial data should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 (including the notes thereto), set forth in Sabre Holdings Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2003.

We consolidate all of our majority-owned subsidiaries and companies over which we exercise control through majority voting rights. No entities are currently consolidated due to control through operating or financing agreements.

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts after elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions. We account for our interests in joint ventures and investments in common stock of other companies which we do not control but over which we exert significant influence using the equity method. Investments in the common stock of other companies over which we do not exert significant influence are accounted for at cost. We periodically evaluate for impairment equity and debt investments in entities accounted for at cost

7

---

by reviewing updated financial information provided by the investee, including valuation information from new financing transactions by the investee and information relating to competitors of investees when available. If we determine that a cost method investment is impaired, the carrying value of the investment is reduced to its estimated fair value. To date, writedowns of investments carried at cost have been insignificant to our results of operations.

Reclassifications—Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2002 financial statements to conform to the 2003 presentation. These reclassifications are not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to our financial statements.

Accounts Receivable—We generate a significant portion of our revenues and corresponding accounts receivable from services provided to the commercial air travel industry. As of June 30, 2003, approximately 69% of our accounts receivable were attributable to these customers. Our other accounts receivable are generally due from other participants in the travel and transportation industry.

We evaluate the collectibility of our accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to us (e.g., bankruptcy filings, failure to pay amounts due to us or others), we record a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we reasonably believe will be collected. For all other customers, we recognize reserves for bad debts based on past write-off history (average percentage of receivables written off historically) and the length of time the receivables are past due.

From 2001 through the second quarter 2003, the commercial air travel industry in particular, and the travel and transportation industry in general, was adversely affected by a decline in travel resulting from several factors, including a softening economy, the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001, the war in Iraq and by travelers' fear of exposure to contagious diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome ("SARS"). Our airline customers are negatively affected by the continuing lower levels of travel activity. Several major domestic air carriers are experiencing liquidity problems. Some airlines have sought bankruptcy protection and others may consider bankruptcy relief. We believe that we have appropriately considered the effects of these factors, as well as any other known customer liquidity issues, on the ability of our customers to pay amounts owed to us. However, if decreased demand for commercial air travel continues or worsens, the financial condition of our customers may be adversely impacted. If we begin, or estimate that we will begin, to experience higher than expected defaults on amounts due us, our estimates of the amounts which we will ultimately collect could be reduced by a material amount. Our allowance for bad debts was $26.4 million at June 30, 2003 and $34.5 million at December 31, 2002.

Booking Fee Cancellation Reserve—We record revenue for airline travel reservations processed through the Sabre system at the time of the booking of the reservation. However, if the booking is canceled in a later month, the booking fee must be refunded to the customer (less a small cancellation fee). We record revenue net of an estimated amount reserved to account for future cancellations. This reserve is calculated based on historical cancellation rates. In estimating the amount of future cancellations that will require us to refund a booking fee, we assume that a significant percentage of cancellations are followed by an immediate re-booking, without loss of revenue. This assumption is based on historical rates of cancellations/re-bookings and has a significant impact on the amount reserved. If circumstances change, such as higher than expected cancellation rates or changes in booking behavior, our estimates of future cancellations could be increased by a material amount and our revenue decreased by a corresponding amount. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 our booking fee cancellation reserves were approximately $17.6 million and $18.4 million, respectively. During the first half of 2003, the cancellation reserve

8

---

declined by $0.8 million due to declining booking volumes. This reserve is sensitive to changes in booking levels. For example, if during the first half of 2003 booking volumes had been 10% lower, the reserve balance would have been reduced by an additional $1.8 million.

Business Combinations—Our acquisitions of other companies have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The amounts assigned to the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in connection with these acquisitions were based on estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition, with the remainder recorded as goodwill. The fair values were determined by our management, generally based upon information supplied by the management of the acquired entities and valuations prepared by independent valuation experts. The valuations have been based primarily upon future cash flow projections for the acquired assets, discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. For certain classes of intangible assets, the valuations have been based upon estimated cost of replacement. In connection with these acquisitions, we have recorded a significant amount of intangible assets, including goodwill.

Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill—We evaluate our goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The evaluation is based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value of the unit of our business to which the goodwill has been assigned to the sum of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of that unit. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated based upon discounted future cash flow projections for the unit. These cash flow projections are based upon a number of assumptions, including future booking volume levels, price levels, commission rates, rates of growth in our consumer and corporate direct booking businesses, rates of increase in operating expenses, discount rates, price-to-earnings multiples, etc. To date, we have not recorded a significant impairment of our goodwill. Intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are subject to impairment tests annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an indefinite lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, as generally estimated using a discounted future net cash flow projection, the carrying value of the asset is reduced to its fair value.

We believe that assumptions we have made in projecting future cash flows for the evaluations described above are reasonable. However, if future actual results do not meet our expectations, we may be required to record an impairment charge, the amount of which could be material to our results of operations.

Amortization expense relating to intangible assets subject to amortization totaled approximately $12.1 million and $13.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and approximately $24.6 million and $26.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 includes a charge of $2.7 million incurred during the first quarter of 2002 for the write-down of a non-compete agreement that was determined to be unrecoverable. The goodwill balance was approximately $822 million and $820 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. Of these balances, approximately $94 million consisted of goodwill related to our investments in joint ventures, which is included in investments in joint ventures in the accompanying balance sheet.

Earnings Per Share—Basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effect of any stock awards or options. The number of shares used in the diluted earnings per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of any stock awards or options.

---

The following table reconciles weighted average shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per common share (in thousands):

Options to purchase approximately 1,223,438 and 1,029,335 weighted-average shares of our common stock were outstanding during the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2003, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Stock Awards and Options—We account for stock awards and stock option grants using the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25"), and related interpretations. Generally, no compensation expense is recognized for stock option grants to employees if the exercise price is at or above the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense relating to other stock awards is recognized over the period during which the employee renders service to us necessary to earn the award.

The total charge for stock compensation expense recorded in accordance with APB 25 and included in wages, salaries and benefits expense was $4.6 million and $20.3 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $9.3 million and $23 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Of this expense, $3.2 million and $19.6 million for the three-month periods ending June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $6.4 million and $20.1 million for the six month periods ending June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, relates to the recognition of compensation expense for vested and unvested employee stock options converted to options to purchase Sabre Holdings' common stock in connection with acquisitions of other companies. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, unamortized deferred stock compensation relating to acquisitions that we have made totaled approximately $18.4 million and $24.8 million, respectively.

In order to provide more prominent and frequent disclosures about the effects of stock-based compensation as required under SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure, the following table summarizes the pro forma effect of stock-based

compensation on our net earnings and net earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 (in thousands, except per share data):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements—In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement nullifies Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). The standard requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement is applicable to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 will significantly change existing practice by requiring the consolidation of certain variable interest entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other pecuniary interests in the entity. Previously, entities were generally consolidated by an enterprise that had a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity. This statement applied to all new variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The statement now applies to all existing variable interest entities at July 1, 2003. We are still determining the effect of the adoption of FIN 46 on our financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. The standard requires companies that issue certain types of freestanding financial instruments to treat them as liabilities on their balance sheet, measured at fair value, even though the instruments have characteristics of equity. This statement is effective for all freestanding financial instruments of public companies entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. Otherwise, it will become effective for the interim period beginning July 1, 2003. The adoption of this standard will not have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Syndicated Lease Financing—We were previously affiliated with a special purpose entity ("SPE"), as part of a syndicated lease arrangement that was terminated in June 2003. This SPE qualified for off-balance sheet treatment. In 1999, we arranged a syndicated lease financing facility of approximately $310 million through this entity to purchase land and an existing office building and to construct a new corporate headquarters facility in Southlake, Texas, and a new data center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The data center in Tulsa was sold during the third quarter of 2002. We accounted for the financing facility as an operating lease. As a result, neither the asset nor the related debt was recorded on our balance sheet.

The SPE leased the properties to us under a master lease agreement. At any time during the lease term, we had the option to purchase the properties or cause the properties to be sold. If the sell option was exercised, we guaranteed to the lessor that proceeds on a sale would be at least 84% of the original fair value of the leased facilities, and we were responsible for the first dollar loss on a decrease in the value of the property of up to 84% of the total funded value of the SPE, resulting in the $28 million payment discussed below.

As a result of terminating the syndicated lease and entering into the capital lease arrangement described below, the properties were sold by the SPE to the capital lease lessor, we paid approximately $28 million pursuant to the residual value guarantee under the syndicated lease and the SPE was terminated. This payment is recorded in other, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Capital Lease Financing—To refinance the syndicated lease arrangement described above, Sabre Inc. entered into a ten-year master lease of our corporate headquarters facility in Southlake, Texas in June 2003. We have accounted for this master lease, which is guaranteed by Sabre Holdings Corporation, as a capital lease. At the inception of the lease, we recorded an asset of approximately $168 million, along with a liability of approximately $168 million, representing the present value of the minimum lease payments due under the lease and the residual value guarantee discussed below.

At any time during the lease term, we have the option to terminate the lease and purchase the properties for approximately $179 million, plus a make-whole amount, if applicable. We also have the option at any time up to one year prior to lease expiration to cause the properties to be sold. If the sell option is exercised, we have guaranteed that proceeds on a sale will be at least approximately $159 million, and we are responsible for the first dollar loss up to approximately $159 million due to a decrease in the value of the property below approximately $179 million. If the sales proceeds exceed approximately $179 million plus any sales-related expenses, we retain the excess.

We will initially depreciate the capital lease asset to the amount of the residual value guarantee over the ten-year term of the lease. If we determine during the lease term that the estimated fair value of the capital lease assets has fallen below approximately $179 million, we will increase the periodic depreciation expense over the remaining term of the lease.

3.     Significant Events

Tender Offer for Travelocity.com Common Stock—On April 8, 2002 we completed a $28 per share cash tender offer for all of the approximately 16.7 million outstanding publicly-held common shares of Travelocity.com that we did not own. Prior to the tender offer, we had an approximate 70% ownership stake in Travelocity.com. We then effected a short-form merger, whereby Travelocity.com became our indirect 100% owned subsidiary, on April 11, 2002. The transaction supports our continuing strategy to deliver value to suppliers and travelers across multiple distribution channels. We believe it makes sense to combine the strengths of our segments to pursue new revenue opportunities, while optimizing investment decisions across segments.

The aggregate cost of the tender offer and the ensuing merger was approximately $474 million. We used available balances of cash and marketable securities to complete the acquisition, of which we estimate $8 million remains to be paid at June 30, 2003. Approximately $10 million was paid during 2003. The results of operations of the acquired interest in Travelocity.com have been included in our consolidated statement of income and the results of operations from the date of the acquisition. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. The proportionate share of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the minority interest have been recorded at their fair values and the excess of cost over the estimated fair value of the net assets has been recorded as goodwill. The fair values were determined by management based on an independent valuation of the net assets acquired, including intangible assets. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price and amounts allocated to goodwill (in thousands):

The goodwill included above relates to the Travelocity segment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

We are also recognizing stock compensation expense based on the intrinsic value of awards that were converted at the date of the acquisition from options to purchase shares of Travelocity.com common stock into options to purchase shares of Sabre Holdings' common stock. Total stock

compensation expense related to the converted Travelocity.com options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 was approximately $3 million and $5 million. At June 30, 2003 the amount of unrecognized stock compensation expense to be amortized over the remaining vesting period of the related options is approximately $16 million.

Acquisition of Site59—On March 27, 2002, we completed the acquisition of Site59.com, Inc. ("Site59"), an online seller of last-minute merchant model air, hotel and rental car inventory, for approximately $44 million in cash.

The acquisition of Site59 provides Travelocity with a greater mix of merchant hotel inventory. This new inventory complements the merchant inventory Travelocity receives directly from hotel partners and from Hotels.com. Travelocity began selling hotel rooms using inventory from Site59 during the fourth quarter of 2002.

The results of operations of Site59 have been included in our consolidated statements of income and the results of operations of our Travelocity segment from the date of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at their estimated fair values and the excess of cost over the estimated fair value of the net assets has been recorded as goodwill. The fair values were determined by management based on an independent valuation of the net assets acquired, including intangible assets. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price and amounts allocated to goodwill (in thousands):

The acquired goodwill included above is related to the Travelocity segment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

Pro Forma Statement of Operations Data

The unaudited pro forma statement of operations data in the table below presents the effects on our operations of our acquisition of the approximately 30% minority interest of Travelocity.com that we did not previously own as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2002. Adjustments related to this acquisition that affect our statement of operations include stock compensation expense associated with the conversion of Travelocity.com options into options to purchase shares of Sabre Holdings' common stock, amortization of the fair value of amortizing intangible assets acquired and elimination of minority interests in the results of operations of Travelocity.com. Pro forma adjustments related to the acquisition of Site59 on March 27, 2002 have not been included

as the effect of doing so would be immaterial. Amounts shown below are in thousands, except per share amounts:

Sale of Former Corporate Office Facility—On January 31, 2002, we sold our previous headquarters office facility in Fort Worth, Texas to a third party. We received proceeds of $80 million in cash, and recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $18 million as a result of the sale.

Workforce Reduction—As a result of continued low travel and booking volumes resulting from the weakened economy and the other factors mentioned under "Business Trends—Reduced Volume of Air Travel" below, we reduced our workforce in December 2002 by approximately 400 employees, or 6% of our workforce. Approximately $16 million of expense was recorded for this reduction, of which approximately $5 million was paid during 2002 leaving an approximately $11 million liability at December 31, 2002. An additional $10 million of this severance accrual has been paid during 2003, and a $1 million adjustment was made in the second quarter to reflect fewer than anticipated employees affected by the reduction, leaving the liability at less than $1 million as of June 30, 2003, which is expected to be paid over the next several months. The following table summarizes the costs related to the 2002 workforce reduction, as well as the liabilities included in the balance sheets at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003 (in thousands):

Contract Settlements—In the first quarter of 2003 we recognized revenue of approximately $36 million, representing settlements from two travel agency subscribers (who were affiliated with each other and were acquired by a competitor of ours) in exchange for allowing them to cancel their existing subscriber agreements.

Cash Dividend—We paid approximately $10 million during the second quarter of 2003 with respect to a dividend of $0.07 per share declared by our Board of Directors on April 17, 2003. On July 14, 2003, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share of our Class A Common Stock, which is payable on August 15, 2003, to stockholders of record as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on July 31, 2003. If quarterly dividends are continued, and assuming that the current number of shares of our common stock remains outstanding, we would expect to pay an aggregate of approximately $10 million for each quarterly dividend, or $40 million on an annual basis. Our Board of Directors currently intends to consider declaring and paying comparable future dividends on a regular quarterly basis, subject to our ability to pay dividends and to a determination by our Board of Directors that dividends continue to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

4.     Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes relating to continuing operations differs from amounts computed at the statutory federal income tax rate as follows (in thousands):

5.     Derivatives

Travelocity received warrants from Hotels.com in connection with an affiliation agreement entered into during 2000. In March 2001, we extended our existing affiliation agreement with Hotels.com through July 31, 2005 and expanded the scope of the Hotels.com relationship. In connection with the expanded and extended agreement, we received additional vested Hotels.com warrants with a fair value of approximately $30 million on the date of receipt. We are recognizing this amount as revenue over the extended term of the agreement.

On June 23, 2003, Hotels.com was acquired and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InterActiveCorp ("IAC", formerly USA Interactive Co.) IAC announced that, in connection with the acquisition, each outstanding share of Hotels.com Class A common stock would be converted into the right to receive 2.4 shares of IAC common stock. Warrants to purchase shares of Hotels.com common stock were converted into warrants to acquire IAC common stock at the same conversion rate.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 we recognized revenue relating to amortization of the fair value of the warrants received at contract origination and modification totaling approximately $1.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively, compared to $2.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. We may also vest in additional warrants in the future based upon the achievement of certain performance metrics. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we earned additional warrants, based on certain performance metrics, with a fair value of approximately $4.8 million and $7.1 million, respectively, compared to $1.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. These amounts have been recognized as revenue in the periods the warrants were earned. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we completed cashless exercises of Hotels.com warrants for approximately 41,000 and 82,000 shares Hotels.com common stock, respectively, which were disposed of for cash proceeds totaling approximately $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, we completed cashless exercises of Hotels.com warrants and received approximately 45,000 shares and 81,000 shares of Hotels.com common stock, respectively, which were disposed of for cash proceeds totaling approximately $2.8 million and $4.4 million, respectively. No significant gain or loss was realized relating to these exercises of the warrants or the disposals of the common stock. As of June 30, 2003 we held unexercised warrants for approximately 146,000 shares of IAC common stock.

We are a party to certain foreign currency forward contracts. We have designated our foreign currency forwards as cash flow hedges. Amounts reclassified from other comprehensive income to

earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 relating to the forwards were not significant. There was no hedging ineffectiveness recorded in earnings relating to the forwards during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

In connection with our issuance in August 2001 of $400 million principal amount in unsecured notes ("Notes") with a fixed interest rate of 7.35%, we entered into two interest rate swaps. We had designated the swaps as fair value hedges of $100 million and $200 million principal amount, respectively, of the Notes. Because the critical terms of the Notes and the swaps matched, the swaps were considered a perfectly effective hedge against changes in the fair value of the Notes due to changes in the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). On August 1, 2002 we terminated the swaps, resulting in a gain of approximately $17 million. The gain has been recorded as an increase in the carrying value of the Notes, and will be amortized as an offset to interest expense over the remaining term of the Notes which mature in entirety on August 1, 2011. Also, on August 1, 2002, we entered into two new interest rate swaps. Under the terms of the two new interest rate swaps, which have notional amounts of $100 million and $200 million, we will receive semi-annual payments based on a fixed interest rate of 7.35% and will make semi-annual payments based on a six-month LIBOR plus 231 basis points. The reset dates on the swaps are February 1 and August 1 each year until maturity on August 1, 2011. We have designated the swaps as fair value hedges of $100 million and $200 million of the principal amount of the Notes. Because the critical terms of the Notes and the swaps match, the swaps are considered a perfectly effective hedge. Changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized as a component of other income in each reporting period. Additionally, the carrying value of the Notes is adjusted by a like amount, with the adjustment recognized as a component of other income. As of June 30, 2003, we had recorded a hedging asset of approximately $31 million, which is included in other assets in the accompanying balance sheet, and a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the Notes relating to these new swaps.

In connection with the capital lease that we entered into in June 2003 (Note 2), we entered into a fixed-to-floating interest rate swap with a notional amount of $100 million. We have designated the swap as a fair value hedge on $100 million of the principal amount of the capital lease obligation. Under the terms of the swap, we will receive semi-annual payments based on a fixed interest rate of 5.37% and will make semi-annual payments based on six-month LIBOR plus 153.25 basis points. Changes in the fair value of this swap are recognized as a component of other income. Additionally, as long as the swap is determined to be an effective hedge of the capital lease obligation, the carrying value of the capital lease obligation is adjusted by a like amount, with the adjustment recognized as a component of other income. At June 30, 2003, there was no significant market value recorded on this swap.

The estimated fair values of our derivatives as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are provided below (in thousands):

Derivative assets and liabilities are classified as current or long-term other assets and other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet, depending on the date of settlement of the contract.

6.     Segment Reporting

The Sabre Travel Network segment operates the Sabre GDS and distributes travel products and services through the travel agency channel. The Travelocity segment distributes travel services to individual consumers and unmanaged and lightly managed business travelers. Through the Travelocity Web sites, consumers can compare prices, make travel reservations and obtain destination information online. GetThere distributes travel services directly to businesses. GetThere operates one of the world's largest Internet marketplaces focused on travel services for managed business travelers, travel arrangers and travel managers. GetThere also provides a Web interface for reservation systems operated by airlines or other suppliers. The Sabre Airline Solutions segment primarily provides software development, reservations hosting and consulting solutions to airlines and other travel providers.

Our reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services and are managed separately because each business requires different market strategies. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (Note 2). We account for significant intersegment transactions as if the transactions were to third parties, that is, at estimated current market rates.

Personnel and related costs for the corporate headquarters, certain legal and professional fees and other corporate charges are allocated to the segments through a management fee based primarily on estimated usage. Depreciation expense on the corporate headquarters buildings and related facilities costs are allocated to the segments through a facility fee based on headcount. Benefits expense, including pension expense, postretirement benefits, medical insurance and workers' compensation, are allocated to the segments based on headcount. Unallocated corporate expenses include expenses related to certain other corporate charges maintained at the corporate level.

The segment operating results are presented on a basis that excludes certain special items that are summarized below, except where noted. This presentation is consistent with the manner in which our management assesses the operating performance of our business segments. Selected information for our four reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 follows.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

SABRE HOLDINGS CORPORATION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary

We generate revenues by providing travel marketing and distribution services using the Sabre®¹ global distribution system ("Sabre GDS") to travel agencies, corporate travel departments and travel suppliers through our Sabre Travel Network™ business segment, to consumers using the Travelocity™ Web sites, to businesses using GetThere™ products and from the development and marketing of Sabre Airline Solutions'™ products. During the six months ended June 30, 2003 approximately 72.4% of our revenue was generated from Sabre Travel Network, approximately 15.4% from Travelocity, 2.2% from GetThere and 9.9% from Sabre Airline Solutions based on segment results that include intercompany revenues. Our consolidated operating margins were 13.7% and 20.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Business Trends

Reduced Volume of Air Travel. Our revenues are highly dependent on the travel and transportation industries and particularly on United States airline travel bookings. Since 2001, we have experienced booking volumes below historical levels. We attribute this to the lower travel activity principally to economic conditions in the United States and to ongoing travel security concerns due to the war in Iraq and travelers' fear of exposure to contagious diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome ("SARS"). Air travel was adversely affected by a decline in travel resulting from the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the possibility of terrorist attacks, hostilities and war, the resulting security measures at airports, the financial instability of many air carriers, and economic and political issues in the United States and abroad. Travelers appear to be traveling less, remaining closer to home, deferring travel and substituting alternative methods of travel for air travel.

During the second quarter of 2003, our total air bookings were down 16.2% in the United States and 17.6% globally as compared to the year-ago period, and during the first half of 2003 our total air bookings were down 17.1% in the United States and 16.1% globally as compared to the year-ago period. We are uncertain whether travel booking volumes will fully recover to historical levels, especially when compared to the year 2000, which was a year in which we experienced historically high levels of travel bookings.

Financial Condition of Airlines. Many of our airline customers are negatively affected by the continuing lower levels of travel activity. Several major carriers are experiencing liquidity problems. Some airlines have sought bankruptcy protection and others may consider bankruptcy relief. The financial difficulties facing our airline customers increase the risk that they may not perform on our contracts with them, including the risk we may not be paid for services provided to them, although this risk may be mitigated by our participation in industry clearinghouses, which allow for centralized payment of service providers in the travel industry. Several air carriers have reduced

30

---

the size of their fleets and the number of flights available or are implementing other cost saving measures. These conditions may result in the airlines buying less of our products or services or seeking to reduce costs through price negotiation or other means.

Supplier Efforts to Control Travel Distribution. Airlines have aggressively worked to divert travel bookings onto channels that they control. Many of those airlines have withheld inventory from independent travel distributors, have greatly reduced commissions paid to online and traditional travel agencies and have conditioned independent distributors' access to inventory on their response to pricing offered by channels that those airlines control. Their collective efforts have resulted in travel bookings being diverted from traditional distribution channels toward airline-controlled channels, such as Orbitz, individual airline Web sites and call centers. Several hotels have announced plans for similar multi-vendor Web sites for booking hotels and other accommodations. Additionally, as discussed below under "Risk Factors—Regulatory Developments", current proposed government regulations in the United States and Europe, if adopted as proposed, could also contribute to the shift of bookings from the Sabre GDS to airline-controlled outlets.

In October 2002 we announced a new Direct Connect Availability ("DCA") 3-Year Pricing Option to airlines with United States points of sale. Airlines selecting this option under their Sabre GDS participating carrier agreements will receive a discount of approximately 12.5% from the applicable DCA rates. As of the date of this report, nineteen airlines, including American Airlines, Inc., Delta Airlines, Inc., Northwest Airlines Corporation, Continental Airlines, Inc., United Air Lines, Inc. and US Airways, Inc., have elected to participate in the DCA 3-year pricing option. Through the Sabre DCA 3-Year option, participating airlines agree to commit to the highest level of participation in the Sabre system (DCA level) for three years. Participating airlines provide all Sabre GDS users with broad access to schedules, seat availability and published fares, including Web fares and other promotional fares but excluding certain fares such as "opaque" fares (where the airline's identity is not disclosed until after the sale) and private discounts. Participating airlines also furnish generally the same customer perquisites and amenities to passengers booked through the Sabre GDS as those afforded through other GDS's and Web sites. As a consequence, we believe that the participation of these carriers in the program, as well as that of the other participants, will play a role in diminishing the present shift of bookings away from the Sabre GDS to airline controlled outlets as well as in assisting us in adapting to changes in our regulatory environment. See "Risk Factors—Travel Suppliers are Seeking to Bypass" and "Risk Factors—Regulatory Developments."

Merchant Model. Independent travel distributors, including our companies, are attempting to reduce their reliance on supplier-paid commissions and booking fees by increasingly promoting a merchant model of travel distribution whereby the travel distributors obtain access to content from travel suppliers at a pre-determined price and sell the content, either individually or in a package, to travelers at a retail price which the distributor determines. Merchant model content can include air, hotel, vacation, and dynamically-packaged (via Travelocity TotalTrip) offerings. Travel suppliers are starting to offer content on a merchant basis as well as through independent travel distributors. Merchant content is good for travelers because they can generally book their travel at a lower price than regularly published offerings. For us, merchant content generally delivers higher revenue per transaction than comparable sales under the agency/booking fee model. Under the merchant model, the distributor recognizes as revenue the sale price to the traveler less the cost of the inventory, rather than a supplier-paid booking fee or commission.

The potential effects of these trends, events and uncertainties are discussed below under Risk Factors.

Critical Accounting Policies. Our accounting policies, which are in compliance with principles generally accepted in the United States, require us to apply methodologies, estimates and

31

---

judgments that have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. In our annual report on Form 10-K/A we have discussed those policies that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application. Since the date of that Form 10-K/A, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methodologies or assumptions applied under them.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $30 million, or 5.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $537 million to $507 million. Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased approximately $46 million, or 16.5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $279 million to approximately $325 million.

Management's discussion and analysis of revenues and cost of revenues by business segment are based upon segment results including intersegment revenues and cost of revenues of approximately $29 million and $25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The majority of the intercompany revenues and cost of revenues are between Travelocity and Sabre Travel Network, consisting mainly of incentives and marketing fees for Travelocity bookings made through the Sabre GDS and data processing fees paid by Travelocity to Sabre Travel Network. All intercompany revenues and corresponding cost of revenues have been eliminated in consolidation. Disaggregated results by segment are presented in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenues. Total segment revenues (including intersegment revenues) for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $25 million, or 4.5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $561 million to $536 million.

We believe that 2003 revenues in each of our segments were adversely affected by a decline in travel resulting from the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the state of the United States economy, the aftermath of the war in Iraq, the possibility of terrorist attacks, hostilities and war, the resulting security measures at airports, the financial instability of many air carriers, travelers' fears of exposure to contagious diseases such as SARS, and economic and political issues abroad.

Sabre Travel Network—Revenues decreased $41 million, or 9.8%, from $420 million to $379 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period.

•

Booking fees from airlines and other associates decreased $31 million, resulting primarily from the reductions in travel discussed above in Reduced Volume of Air Travel but were partially offset by the February 2003 price increase. During the second quarter of 2003, our total air bookings were down 16.2% in the United States and 17.6% globally as compared to the year-ago period.



•

Subscriber revenues decreased approximately $3 million, primarily due to the loss of a major online agency customer.



•

Other revenues decreased approximately $7 million, primarily due to a $5 million decrease in equity income and other revenues from our joint ventures in Asia.

Travelocity—Revenues increased $15 million, or 19.7%, from $76 million to $91 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period.

•

Transaction revenue increased $16 million, primarily driven by a $10 million increase in non-air transaction revenue and a $6 million increase in air transaction revenue. Non-air transaction revenue increases were primarily driven by the introduction of merchant hotel

32

---

content in the second half of 2002. Air transaction revenue increases were mainly driven by the implementation of service fees earlier in the year. Travelocity receives certain incentive and marketing fees from Sabre Travel Network for each Travelocity booking that is made through the Sabre GDS. These amounts are considered intersegment revenues for Travelocity and are eliminated, along with the corresponding intersegment expenses for Sabre Travel Network, in our consolidated financial statements. The $16 million increase in transaction revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2003 includes a $5 million increase in intersegment revenues compared to the year-ago period. This increase is primarily due to an increase in the average rate per booking.

•

Advertising revenue decreased $2 million due to the continued softening in the online advertising market.



•

Other revenue increased $1 million due to a $3 million increase in revenues from IAC performance warrants, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in our equity income from investments in joint ventures.

GetThere—Revenues decreased approximately $1 million, or 7.7%, from $13 million to $12 million.

•

Corporate revenues increased approximately $2 million, as corporate trip volumes grew 39.9% in the second quarter of 2003 compared to the year-ago period.



•

Supplier revenues decreased $3 million, as supplier trip volumes decreased 20.6%, primarily resulting from the loss of America West Airlines, American Trans Air and National Airlines as customers, and the renegotiations of other supplier contracts.

Sabre Airline Solutions—Revenues increased approximately $2 million, or 3.8%, from $52 million to $54 million.

•

Revenues from airline software application products and services increased $4 million due to new business and growth from existing key customers.



•

Revenues from airline-consulting services increased $1 million due to additional service offerings that were acquired by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2002.



•

Development revenues from major customers decreased $3 million as customers shift focus to cost containment during the industry downturn.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased approximately $50 million, or 16.4%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $304 million to approximately $354 million, including intersegment charges of $25 million and $29 million, respectively.

Sabre Travel Network—Cost of revenues increased $43 million, or 19.5%, from $220 million to $263 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period. This increase was due to a $25 million increase in technology costs and an $18 million increase in subscriber supports costs.

•

The increase in technology costs includes $15 million related to investments in new platforms and functionality while running legacy systems in parallel, and $10 million related to a partial restructuring of our information technology outsourcing agreement with EDS and the expiration of other vendor credits.



•

The increase in subscriber support costs includes a $20 million increase in customer incentives. Of that $20 million, $8 million is related to an increase in the average incentive per booking driven by competitive pressure on renewals and conversions, and $12 million is due to lower accrual levels in 2002 associated with the aftermath of September 11, 2001 and

33

---

the loss of customers that paid us for one-time data processing charges in 2002 which are considered a contra-incentive expense. In addition to the increase in incentives, intercompany incentive payments to Travelocity increased by $5 million primarily due to an increase in the average rate per booking.

•

These increases were offset by reductions in other subscriber support areas, primarily a $7 million reduction in communication expenses driven by migration to lower cost solutions and the adoption of third-party solutions by subscribers.

Travelocity—Cost of revenues increased approximately $5 million, or 13.9%, from $36 million to $41 million. Credit card fees associated with our merchant business increased $2 million as merchant model activities were just beginning in the second quarter of 2002, technology costs increased $1 million due primarily to an increase in transaction volumes and our investment in new services and all other expenses increased $2 million.

GetThere—Cost of revenues decreased $2 million, or 15.4%, from $13 million to $11 million. This improvement was primarily attributable to a $1 million decrease in salaries and benefits resulting from a reduction in headcount.

Sabre Airline Solutions—Cost of revenues increased approximately $4 million, or 11.4%, from $35 million to $39 million. Salaries, benefits and employee related costs increased $2 million due to wage increases, increased benefit costs and the redeployment of resources from capitalized product investment to revenue generating activities. Total other operating expenses increased by $2 million.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $10 million, or 7.1%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $140 million to $130 million. This decrease was primarily due to $16 million of Travelocity stock compensation, which occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2002 as a result of our acquisition of the remaining Travelocity.com common stock we did not own. For the three months ended June 30, 2003 Sabre Travel Network and Travelocity bad debt expense decreased $4 million and $2 million, respectively, as compared to the year-ago period due to a reduction in bad debt reserves as a result of improvements in collection performance. These decreases were partially offset by increased Travelocity advertising expenses of $8 million due to an increased emphasis on advertising and marketing efforts and a $4 million increase in the amortization of payments made by Travelocity to strategic business partners.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets decreased approximately $1 million, or 7.7%, during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period, from $13 million to $12 million. This decrease was primarily due to decreased intangible asset amortization of approximately $1 million in Sabre Travel Network and GetThere combined.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased $64 million, or 61.5%, from $104 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $40 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Operating margins decreased from 19.4% in 2002 to 8.0% in 2003, as consolidated revenues decreased by 5.6% while operating expenses increased by 7.9%. Sabre Travel Network operating income decreased $77 million due to revenue decreases and increases in technology costs and subscriber support costs. Travelocity's operating loss decreased $15 million primarily as a result of an increase in transaction revenue while operating expenses remained flat. GetThere's operating loss decreased $2 million primarily due to decreased salary costs from reduced headcount and lower depreciation expense. Sabre Airline Solutions' operating income decreased $4 million as increases in salaries, benefits and employee related expenses associated with revenue generating and selling and marketing activities exceeded revenue growth between periods.

34

Interest Income. Interest income decreased approximately $4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period, from approximately $8 million to $4 million. Even though our average portfolio balance was higher in 2003 than in 2002, declining interest rates caused interest income on our marketable securities to decrease approximately $4 million for the second quarter of 2003 compared to the second quarter of 2002.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $0.3 million during the second quarter of 2003 due to slightly lower interest rates on our LIBOR-based interest rate swaps. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Income, net. Other income, net, decreased approximately $31 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period a year ago, from $1 million of other income to $30 million of other expense. As discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we incurred a $28 million loss relating to the required residual value guarantee payment in connection with terminating our syndicated lease facility and entering into a capital lease facility during the three months ended June 30, 2003. We also incurred writedowns of investments of $2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to a $1 million gain on investments during the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Minority Interests. Minority interests include minority owners' interests in the results of operations of our consolidated subsidiaries. As discussed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in April 2002, we acquired the approximately 30% of Travelocity we did not previously own. During the second quarter of 2002, net income allocated to remaining minority interests was approximately $1 million, as compared to an insignificant net loss allocated during the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased approximately $37 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, from $39 million to $2 million. Pre-tax income decreased approximately $97 million from the second quarter of 2002, resulting in the decrease.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $35 million, or 3.2%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $1,086 million to $1,051 million. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased approximately $63 million, or 11.0%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $573 million to approximately $636 million.

Management's discussion and analysis of revenues and cost of revenues by business segment are based upon segment results including intersegment revenues and cost of revenues of approximately $58 million and $47 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The majority of the intercompany revenues and cost of revenues are between Travelocity and Sabre Travel Network, consisting mainly of incentives and marketing fees for Travelocity bookings made through the Sabre GDS and data processing fees paid by Travelocity to Sabre Travel Network. All intercompany revenues and corresponding cost of revenues have been eliminated in consolidation. Disaggregated results by segment are presented in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenues. Total segment revenues (including intersegment revenues) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $23 million, or 2.0%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $1,133 million to $1,110 million.

We believe that 2003 revenues in each of our segments were adversely affected by a decline in travel resulting from the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the state of the

35

---

United States economy, the aftermath of the war in Iraq, the possibility of terrorist attacks, hostilities and war, the resulting security measures at airports, the financial instability of many air carriers, travelers' fears of exposure to contagious diseases such as SARS, and economic and political issues abroad.

Sabre Travel Network—Revenues decreased $50 million, or 5.9%, from $854 million to $804 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period.

•

Booking fees from airlines and other associates decreased $73 million, primarily from the reductions in travel, discussed above in Reduced Volume of Air Travel, that were partially offset by a February 2003 price increase. During the first half of 2003 our total air bookings were down 17.1% in the United States and 16.1% globally as compared to the year-ago period.



•

Subscriber revenues increased approximately $35 million, primarily resulting from a $36 million settlement of two subscriber contracts terminated during first quarter 2003.



•

Other revenues decreased $12 million, primarily due to an $8 million decrease in equity income and other associated revenue from our Asia and Mexico joint ventures.

Travelocity—Revenues increased $21 million, or 14.0%, from $150 million to $171 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period.

•

Transaction revenue increased $29 million, primarily driven by a $21 million increase in non-air transaction revenue and an $8 million increase in air transaction revenue. Non-air transaction revenue gains were attributable to the introduction of merchant hotel content in the second half 2002, strong growth in cruise transactions and growth in last minute packages aided by the Site59 acquisition in late first quarter 2002. The air transaction revenue increase was primarily driven by the implementation of service fees earlier in the year. Travelocity receives certain incentive and marketing fees from Sabre Travel Network for each Travelocity booking that is made through the Sabre GDS. These amounts are considered intersegment revenues for Travelocity and are eliminated, along with the corresponding intersegment expenses for Sabre Travel Network, in our consolidated financial statements. The $29 million increase in transaction revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003 includes an $11 million increase in intersegment revenues compared to the year-ago period. This increase is primarily due to an increase in the average rate per booking.



•

Advertising revenue decreased $6 million due to the continued softening in the online advertising market.



•

Other revenue decreased $2 million, primarily due to a $6 million increase in losses from our equity investments in joint ventures in the Far East and Europe and a $1 million decrease in revenue from paper ticket mailing fees. The decrease in revenue from paper ticket mailing fees was mainly driven by increased adoption of e-tickets. These losses were partially offset by a $3 million increase in revenues from Hotels.com and IAC performance warrants, and a $2 million increase in all other revenues.

GetThere—Revenues decreased approximately $0.3 million, or 1.2%, from $24.9 million to $24.6 million.

•

Corporate revenues increased approximately $5.4 million, as corporate trip volumes grew 47.2% in the first half of 2003 as compared to the year-ago period.

36

---

•

Supplier revenues decreased $5.7 million, as supplier trip volumes decreased 19.4%, primarily resulting from the loss of America West Airlines, American Trans Air and National Airlines as customers, and the renegotiation of other supplier contracts.

Sabre Airline Solutions—Revenues increased approximately $6 million, or 5.8%, from $104 million to $110 million.

•

Revenues from airline software application products and services increased $7 million, primarily due to the addition of new key customers.



•

Revenues from airline-consulting services increased $2 million due to additional service offerings that were acquired by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2002.



•

Development revenues from major customers decreased $3 million as customers shift focus to cost containment during the industry downturn.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased approximately $75 million, or 12.1%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $620 million to approximately $695 million.

Sabre Travel Network—Cost of revenues increased $57 million, or 12.5%, from $455 million to $512 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period. This increase was due to a $40 million increase in technology costs and a $17 million increase in subscriber support costs.

•

The increase in technology costs includes $21 million related to investments in new platforms and functionality while we were also running legacy systems and $19 million related to a partial restructuring of our information technology outsourcing agreement with EDS and the expiration of other vendor credits.



•

The increase in subscriber support costs includes a $24 million increase in customer incentives. Of that $24 million, $10 million is related to an increase in the average incentive per booking driven by competitive pressure on renewals and conversions, $14 million is due to lower accrual levels in 2002 associated with the aftermath of September 11, 2001 and the loss of customers that paid us for one-time data processing charges in 2002 which are considered a contra-incentive expense. In addition to the increase in incentives, intercompany incentive payments to Travelocity increased by $11 million primarily due to an increase in the average rate per booking.



•

These increases were offset by reductions in other subscriber support areas, including a $15 million reduction in communication expenses driven by migration to lower cost solutions and the adoption of third-party solutions by subscribers, and a $3 million reduction in hardware lease and maintenance expenses driven by a declining base of installed equipment.

Travelocity—Cost of revenues increased approximately $11 million, or 15.7%, from $70 million to $81 million. Credit card fees associated with our merchant business increased $4 million as merchant model activities were just beginning in the second quarter of 2002, depreciation and support for server equipment increased $3 million due to the purchase of additional server and technology equipment, data processing including software expenses increased $2 million due to an increase in transaction volumes and all other expenses combined increased $2 million.

GetThere—Cost of revenues decreased $3 million, or 12.5%, from $24 million to $21 million. This improvement was primarily attributable to a $2 million decrease in salaries and benefits due to a reduction in headcount and an approximately $1 million decrease in facilities expenses due to renegotiating several facilities contracts.

37

---

Sabre Airline Solutions—Cost of revenues increased approximately $10 million, or 14.1%, from $71 million to $81 million. Salaries, benefits, and employee related costs increased by $5 million, resulting from wage increases, increased benefit costs, and the redeployment of resources from capitalized product investment to revenue generating activities. Data processing charges increased $3 million, due to additional customers and the migration to eMergo product offerings. Software amortization and other operating expenses increased $2 million.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $16 million, or 6.1%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $262 million to $246 million. This decrease was primarily due to $14 million of Travelocity stock compensation, which occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2002 as a result of the acquisition of the remaining Travelocity.com common stock we did not previously own. Sabre Travel Network bad debt expense decreased $8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period due to a reduction in bad debt reserves as a result of general improvements in collection performance. Corporate development labor expense decreased $5 million and corporate travel expense decreased $2 million due to cost reduction efforts. These decreases were partially offset by a $13 million increase in Travelocity advertising expense due to an increased emphasis on advertising and marketing efforts.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets decreased approximately $2 million, or 7.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period, from $27 million to $25 million. This decrease was primarily due to decreased Sabre Travel Network and GetThere intangible asset amortization of $3 million and $1 million, respectively, partially offset by $2 million of increased amortization in Travelocity intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of the approximately 30% minority interest in April 2002.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased $80 million, or 35.7%, from $224 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $144 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Operating margins decreased from 20.7% in 2002 to 13.7% in 2003, as consolidated revenues decreased by 3.2% while operating expenses increased by 5.2%. Sabre Travel Network operating income decreased $84 million due to revenue decreases and increases in technology costs and subscriber support costs. Travelocity's operating loss decreased by $6 million primarily as a result of revenue growth while costs were maintained. GetThere's operating loss decreased $6 million primarily due to decreased salaries from a reduction in head count and lower depreciation expense. Sabre Airline Solutions' operating income decreased $7 million as increases in salaries, benefits and employee related expenses and data processing charges associated with revenue generating activities and selling and marketing activities exceeded revenue growth between periods.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased approximately $6 million due to lower interest income on our investments in marketable securities during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period. Even though our average marketable securities balance was higher in 2003, declining interest rates caused a net decrease of $6 million for the first half of 2003 compared to the first half of 2002.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased during the first half of 2003 due primarily to lower interest rates on our LIBOR-based interest rate swaps. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Income, net. Other income, net, decreased approximately $51 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period a year ago, from other income of $21 million to other expense of $30 million. As discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we incurred a $28 million loss relating to the required residual value guarantee payment in connection with terminating our syndicated lease facility and entering into a capital lease facility during the three months ended June 30, 2003. A gain of $18 million was recorded during the six

38

months ended June 30, 2002 as a result of the sale of our former corporate headquarters building. Net investment gains of approximately $4 million were recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2002, primarily from the sale of France Telecom stock by our joint venture with Abacus International Holdings Ltd., as compared to $1 million of net writedowns during the six months ended June 30, 2003 of under performing investments we had made in companies developing emerging travel technologies.

Minority Interests. Minority interests include minority owners' interests in the results of operations of our consolidated subsidiaries. As discussed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we acquired in April 2002 the remaining approximately 30% of Travelocity we did not previously own. During the six months ended June 30, 2002 the net income allocated to minority interests was insignificant as compared to less than $1 million allocated to remaining minority interests during the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased $53 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $93 million to $40 million. Pre-tax income decreased approximately $137 million during the first quarter of 2003, resulting in $52 million of the decrease. The remaining $1 million decrease results from a decrease in the effective tax rate from 37.5% to 35.9% due to lower state income taxes.

SABRE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2003, we had approximately $966 million in cash and marketable securities and working capital of $912 million compared to $912 million in cash and marketable securities and working capital of $812 million at December 31, 2002. We invest cash in highly liquid instruments, including high credit quality certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances, commercial paper, mortgage-backed and receivables-backed securities, and corporate and government notes.

Historically, we have funded our operations through internally generated cash. We generated cash from operating activities of $131 million and $148 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The $17 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the year-ago period primarily resulted from an $84 million decrease in net earnings and a $59 million decrease in the non-cash impact of deferred taxes, offset by a $28 million payment to terminate a lease on our buildings in 2003 and a one-time gain of $18 million on the sale of our former headquarters building in 2002. These decreases in cash provided by operating activities were offset by an $80 million increase for changes in operating assets and liabilities.

We used net cash for investing activities of $84 million and $563 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, of which $46 million and $225 million were invested in marketable securities. Capital investments for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $40 million and $29 million, respectively. During the first half of 2003, we paid only $12 million for acquisitions, primarily payments on outstanding shares of Travelocity.com. During the first half of 2002, we paid $477 million on business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, primarily for the acquisition of Travelocity.com and Site59. In addition, investing activities in the first half of 2002 contributed cash of $80 million from the sale of our former headquarters building, approximately $23 million from the sale of a minority interest in Sabre Pacific, and $34 million in proceeds from the exercise of options for our subsidiary's shares.

Cash used for financing activities was $39 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $417 million cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2002. In the second quarter of 2003, we paid approximately $10 million to our shareholders in dividends and $28 million to our former leaseholders to terminate a lease on our

headquarters buildings, whereas we received approximately $400 million on the public issuance of common stock in the second quarter of 2002.

In 1999, Travelocity entered into an agreement with AOL that provides, among other things, that the Travelocity Web site will be the exclusive reservations engine for AOL's Internet properties. Travelocity is obligated for payments of up to $200 million and AOL and Travelocity will share advertising revenues and commissions over the five-year term of the agreement. Under certain circumstances, Travelocity may elect to alter the terms of this agreement such that guaranteed payments to AOL would no longer be required. If Travelocity chooses to alter the AOL agreement, AOL will no longer share advertising revenues with Travelocity. As of December 31, 2002, Travelocity was obligated for future payments of up to $80 million, as we paid approximately $40 million per year in 2002, 2001 and 2000. As of June 30, 2003 Travelocity is obligated for future payments of up to $60 million, as we paid an additional $20 million during the first half of 2003.

During the second quarter of 2002, Travelocity entered into an agreement with Yahoo! whereby Travelocity will be the exclusive air, car and hotel booking engine on Yahoo! Travel. Under the terms of the agreement, our subsidiaries are obligated to purchase certain levels of advertising, corporate services and enterprise solutions from Yahoo! The companies also plan to jointly develop travel solutions for the millions of individuals, travel agents and travel suppliers that rely on the firms' extensive networks. Minimum payments due to Yahoo! under the terms of the agreement were $14 million during 2002, $28 million during 2003, and $29 million per year in both 2004 and 2005. The agreement also contains a productivity component, whereby Yahoo! is paid a percentage of the transactions services revenue generated through the Yahoo! network. As of December 31, 2002, we were obligated for total future payments of $86 million, as we paid approximately $14 million during 2002. As of June 30, 2003, we were obligated for total future payments of $75 million, as we paid approximately $11 million during the first half of 2003. The agreement was effective July 1, 2002 and expires December 31, 2005. The agreement can be extended for up to two years at Yahoo!'s option.

We paid approximately $10 million during the second quarter of 2003 with respect to a dividend of $0.07 per share declared by our Board of Directors on April 17, 2003. On July 14, 2003, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share of our Class A Common Stock, which is payable on August 15, 2003, to stockholders of record as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on July 31, 2003. If quarterly dividends are continued, and assuming that the current number of shares of our common stock remains outstanding, we would expect to pay an aggregate of approximately $10 million for each quarterly dividend, or $40 million on an annual basis. Our Board of Directors currently intends to consider declaring and paying comparable future dividends on a regular quarterly basis, subject to our ability to pay dividends and to a determination by our Board of Directors that dividends continue to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

We believe available balances of cash and short-term investments, cash flows from operations and funds available under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. We periodically evaluate opportunities to sell additional equity or debt securities, obtain credit facilities from lenders, or restructure our long-term debt for strategic reasons or to further strengthen our financial position. If market conditions warrant, we may engage in additional financing transactions or repurchases of our shares or debt subject to Board approval. In addition, to the extent we consider additional acquisitions of or investments in complementary businesses, products, services and technologies, such additional activities might affect our liquidity requirements or cause us to issue additional equity or debt securities. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement nullifies Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). The standard requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement is applicable to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 will significantly change existing practice by requiring the consolidation of certain variable interest entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other pecuniary interests in the entity. Previously, entities were generally consolidated by an enterprise that had a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity. This statement applied to all new variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The statement now applies to all existing variable interest entities at July 1, 2003. We are still determining the effect of the adoption of FIN46 on our financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. The standard requires companies that issue certain types of freestanding financial instruments to treat them as liabilities on their balance sheet, measured at fair value, even though the instruments have characteristics of equity. This statement is effective for all freestanding financial instruments of public companies entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. Otherwise, it will become effective for the interim period beginning July 1, 2003. The adoption of this standard will not have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Syndicated Lease Financing—We were previously affiliated with a special purpose entity ("SPE"), as part of a syndicated lease arrangement that was terminated in June 2003. This SPE qualified for off-balance sheet treatment. In 1999, we arranged a syndicated lease financing facility of approximately $310 million through this entity to purchase land and an existing office building and to construct a new corporate headquarters facility in Southlake, Texas, and a new data center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The data center in Tulsa was sold during the third quarter of 2002. We accounted for the financing facility as an operating lease. As a result, neither the asset nor the related debt was recorded on our balance sheet.

The SPE leased the properties to us under a master lease agreement. At any time during the lease term, we had the option to purchase the properties or cause the properties to be sold. If the sell option was exercised, we guaranteed to the lessor that proceeds on a sale would be at least 84% of the original fair value of the leased facilities, and we were responsible for the first dollar loss on a decrease in the value of the property of up to 84% of the total funded value of the SPE, resulting in the $28 million payment discussed below.

As a result of terminating the syndicated lease and entering into the capital lease arrangement described below, the properties were sold by the SPE to the capital lease lessor, we paid approximately $28 million pursuant to the residual value guarantee under the syndicated lease and the SPE was terminated. This payment is recorded in other, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Capital Lease Financing—To refinance the syndicated lease arrangement described above, Sabre Inc. entered into a ten-year master lease of our corporate headquarters facility in Southlake,

41

---

Texas in June 2003. We have accounted for this master lease, which is guaranteed by Sabre Holdings Corporation, as a capital lease. At the inception of the lease, we recorded an asset of approximately $168 million, along with a liability of approximately $168 million, representing the present value of the minimum lease payments due under the lease and the residual value guarantee discussed below.

At any time during the lease term, we have the option to terminate the lease and purchase the properties for approximately $179 million, plus a make-whole amount, if applicable. We also have the option at any time up to one year prior to lease expiration to cause the properties to be sold. If the sell option is exercised, we have guaranteed that proceeds on a sale will be at least approximately $159 million, and we are responsible for the first dollar loss up to approximately $159 million due to a decrease in the value of the property below approximately $179 million. If the sales proceeds exceed approximately $179 million plus any sales-related expenses, we retain the excess.

We will initially depreciate the capital lease asset to the amount of the residual value guarantee over the ten-year term of the lease. If we determine during the lease term that the estimated fair value of the capital lease assets has fallen below approximately $179 million, we will increase the periodic depreciation expense over the remaining term of the lease.

Minimum lease payments as of June 30, 2003 under the capital lease are as follows (in thousands):

RISK FACTORS

General

Risks associated with an investment in our securities, and with achieving the forward-looking statements in this report and our news releases, Web sites, public filings, investor and analyst conferences and elsewhere, include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described below. Any of

42

---

the risk factors described below could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We may not succeed in addressing these challenges and risks.

OUR REVENUES ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRIES, AND PARTICULARLY ON AIRLINES, AND A PROLONGED SUBSTANTIAL DECREASE IN TRAVEL BOOKINGS VOLUMES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT US.

Most of our revenue is derived from airlines, hotel operators, car rental companies and other suppliers in the travel and transportation industries. Our revenue increases and decreases with the level of travel and transportation activity and is therefore highly subject to declines in or disruptions to travel and transportation. The travel industry is seasonal and our revenue varies significantly from quarter to quarter. Factors that may adversely affect travel and transportation activity include:

•

airline or other travel-related labor action,



•

global security issues, future hostilities and war,



•

increased airport security that could reduce the convenience of air travel,



•

inclement weather,



•

fuel price escalation,



•

increased occurrence of travel-related accidents,



•

acts of terrorism,



•

travelers' concerns about exposure to contagious diseases such as SARS,



•

economic and political issues in the Middle East, Asia, Latin America and elsewhere



•

economic downturns and recessions and



•

the financial condition of travel suppliers.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, and the economic downturn that preceded and was worsened by the attacks, may continue to adversely affect us and the travel industry. Additionally, the continuing war in Iraq, the possibility of further terrorist attacks, hostilities and war and the resulting security measures at airports, and the financial instability of many of the air carriers may continue to adversely affect the travel industry. Airlines may reduce the number of their flights, making less inventory available to us. Several major airlines are experiencing liquidity problems and some have sought bankruptcy protection. Travelers' perceptions of passenger security or airlines' financial stability may have an adverse effect on demand. A prolonged substantial decrease in travel bookings volumes could have an adverse impact on our financial performance, operations, liquidity, or capital resources and could impair our ability to recover the carrying value of certain of our assets, including capitalized software, other intangible assets and goodwill.

WE FACE COMPETITION FROM ESTABLISHED AND EMERGING TRAVEL DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS, WHICH COULD DIVERT CUSTOMERS TO OUR COMPETITORS AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Our business includes channels of distribution that support the travel agency, business-direct and consumer-direct segments of the global travel distribution market. In all of these distribution channels, we face significant competitors. In the travel agency channel, our Sabre global distribution system competes primarily against other large and well-established global distribution systems, including those operated by Amadeus and Galileo. In addition, we face competition in the travel agency channel from travel suppliers that distribute directly to travel agencies and from

43

---

other companies. In the business-direct channel, our GetThere business competes against similar products offered by Amadeus, Galileo, Worldspan and travel agencies. Some competitors market business travel systems that are bundled with financial and other non-travel software systems that we do not offer. As a result, our current and potential customers may choose to use our competitors' bundled products and services, which would reduce the revenue we otherwise would have earned from these current and potential customers. In the consumer-direct channel, our Travelocity product competes not only against similar products offered by affiliates of Amadeus, Galileo and Worldspan, but also with a large number of travel Web sites, including those operated by travel suppliers and by Expedia, Hotwire and Orbitz. Consolidation among travel suppliers, including airline mergers, may increase competition from distribution channels related to those suppliers and place more negotiating leverage in the hands of those suppliers. If we are unable to compete effectively, competitors could divert our customers away from our travel distribution channels and, unless we substitute alternative revenue streams, it could adversely affect our results of operations.

SOME TRAVEL SUPPLIERS ARE AGGRESSIVELY SEEKING TO BYPASS OUR TRAVEL DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS, WHICH MAY HAVE THE EFFECT OF ADVERSELY AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Some travel suppliers are aggressively seeking to decrease their reliance on distribution intermediaries, including global distribution systems such as our Sabre GDS. Travel suppliers may give advantages to distribution intermediaries in which they have an economic stake. Airlines own a significant stake in Amadeus, and Cendant (which owns hotels and car rental companies) owns a significant stake in Galileo. Various airlines and hotels have established their own travel distribution Web sites. Several airlines and hotels have formed joint ventures that offer multi-supplier travel distribution Web sites (such as Orbitz in the United States and Opodo in Europe). Some travel suppliers offer discounted prices when their products and services are purchased from these supplier-related Web sites. Some of these discounted prices have not been made available to us. These pricing differences may have the effect of diverting customers from our distribution system to supplier-related Web sites.

CONSOLIDATION IN THE TRAVEL AGENCY INDUSTRY AND INCREASED COMPETITION FOR TRAVEL AGENCY SUBSCRIBERS MAY RESULT IN INCREASED EXPENSES, LOST BOOKINGS AND REDUCED REVENUE.

The absolute and relative size of our travel agency subscriber base is important to our success. Some travel suppliers have reduced or eliminated commissions paid to travel agencies (including consumer direct travel sites like Travelocity). The loss of commissions causes travel agencies to become more dependent on other sources of revenues, such as traveler-paid services fees and GDS-paid incentives. The reduction or elimination of supplier-paid commissions has forced some smaller travel agencies to close or to combine with larger travel agencies. Although we have a leading share of large travel agencies, competition is particularly intense among global distribution systems for larger travel agency subscribers. Consolidation of travel agencies may result in increased competition for these subscribers. Some of our competitors aggressively pay economic incentives to travel agencies to obtain business. In order to compete effectively, we may need to increase incentives, pre-pay incentives, increase spending on marketing or product development, or make significant investments to purchase strategic assets. If we do not retain subscribers representing a significant percentage of historic bookings through our global distribution system, our booking fee revenues would decrease.

AIRLINES THAT DIVEST THEIR OWNERSHIP OF GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS MIGHT LIMIT THEIR PARTICIPATION IN OUR GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

44

---

SERVICES, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BOOKING FEE REVENUE AND OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Rules in the U.S., Canada, the European Union and Peru govern computer reservation systems such as our Sabre global distribution system. Airlines that divest their ownership of global distribution systems may not be subject to these rules, which would otherwise require them to make their inventory available in our global distribution system in a non-discriminatory manner. We could be adversely affected by a decision by one or more large airlines to discontinue or limit their distribution of inventory through global distribution systems. Losing access to their inventory would make our global distribution system less attractive to travel agencies and travel purchasers, which could reduce our booking fee revenue. In order to gain access to inventory, it might become necessary for us to reduce the fees charged to suppliers, which could reduce our booking fee revenue.

SOME OF OUR COMPETITORS ARE WELL FUNDED, WHICH MAY GIVE THESE COMPETITORS A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Some of our competitors are owned by companies that are larger than us and that may have better access to capital than we do. This may afford them the ability to take advantage of more business opportunities, including acquisitions, business combinations and strategic alliances. They may have greater resources to enable them to finance strategic transactions and research and development in the business. These competitive advantages could allow our competitors to offer products and services for less than we can, which could reduce demand for our products and services and adversely affect our results of operations.

WE MAY BE UNSUCCESSFUL IN PURSUING AND INTEGRATING BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND STRATEGIC ALLIANCES, WHICH COULD RESULT IN INCREASED EXPENDITURES OR CAUSE US TO FAIL TO ACHIEVE ANTICIPATED COST SAVINGS OR REVENUE GROWTH.

We plan to continue to examine possible business combinations, investments, joint ventures or other strategic alliances with other companies in order to maintain and grow revenue and market presence. There are risks inherent in these types of transactions, such as: difficulty in assimilating the operations, technology and personnel of the combined companies; disruption of our ongoing business, including loss of management focus on existing businesses and other market developments; problems retaining key technical and managerial personnel; expenses associated with the amortization of identifiable intangible assets; additional operating losses and expenses of acquired businesses; impairment of relationships with existing employees, customers and business partners; and fluctuations in value and losses that may arise from equity investments. In addition, we may not be able to: identify suitable candidates for business combinations and strategic investments; obtain financing or acceptable terms for such business combinations and strategic investments; or otherwise make such business combinations and strategic investments on acceptable terms.

RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES AND NEW DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS OR UNAUTHORIZED USE OF OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MAY RENDER OUR TECHNOLOGY OBSOLETE OR ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF OUR CURRENT OR FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES TO US AND OUR CUSTOMERS, WHICH COULD CAUSE US TO INCREASE EXPENDITURES TO UPGRADE OUR TECHNOLOGY OR DEVELOP COMPETING PRODUCTS IN NEW DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS AND TO PROTECT THEM.

New distribution channels and technology in our industry are evolving rapidly. Our ability to compete and our future results depend in part on our ability to make timely and cost-effective

45

---

enhancements and additions to our technology, to introduce new products and services that meet customer demands and rapid advancements in technology and to protect our technology. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property could have a material adverse effect on us and our legal remedies may not adequately compensate us for the damages to our business caused by such use. Maintaining flexibility to respond to technological and market dynamics may require substantial expenditures and lead-time. We cannot assure you that we will successfully identify and develop new products or services in a timely manner, that products, technologies or services developed by others will not render our offerings obsolete or noncompetitive, or that the technologies in which we focus our research and development investments will achieve acceptance in the marketplace.

OUR SYSTEMS MAY SUFFER FAILURES, CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS AND BUSINESS INTERRUPTIONS, WHICH COULD INCREASE OUR OPERATING COSTS AND CAUSE US TO LOSE CUSTOMERS.

Our businesses are largely dependent on the computer data centers and network systems operated by Electronic Data Systems Corporation. We rely on several communications service suppliers and on the global Internet to provide network access between our computer data center and end-users of our services. We occasionally experience system interruptions that make our global distribution system or other data processing services unavailable. Much of our computer and communications hardware is located in a single facility. Our systems might be damaged or interrupted by fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure, break-ins, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, hostilities or war or similar events. Computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions affecting the global Internet or our systems might cause service interruptions, delays and loss of critical data. Problems affecting our systems could significantly diminish our reputation and brand name and prevent us from providing services. Although we believe we have taken adequate steps to address these risks, we could be harmed by outages in, or unreliability of, the data center or network systems.

REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS COULD LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE BY RESTRICTING OUR FLEXIBILITY TO RESPOND TO COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS, WHICH COULD CAUSE OUR CUSTOMERS TO BE DIVERTED TO OUR COMPETITORS AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUE AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The U.S. Department of Transportation ("DOT") released its Notice of Proposed Rule Making ("NPRM") on November 12, 2002 as part of its comprehensive review of its rules governing computer reservation systems ("CRS") such as our Sabre GDS. If those rules were to become final in their current form, we would be adversely affected. In particular, the rules could facilitate efforts by airlines divert travel bookings to distribution channels that they own and control. Airlines that own CRS systems would no longer be required to participate in competing systems. The proposed rules would also limit our ability to enforce certain provisions in the CRS agreements we have with both airlines and travel agents and reduce the value of marketing information sold by Sabre Travel Network to airline associates. Furthermore, the proposed rules would apply to traditional CRS systems but not to travel distribution Web sites, even if they have the same functionality as a traditional CRS system and even if accessed by travel agents. The NPRM is not the final rule. We have submitted a response to the NPRM in which we urge DOT to deregulate all CRS systems. In addition, our response advises DOT that we do not believe that it has the legal power to apply any of its CRS regulations directly to CRS providers, like Sabre Travel Network, that are independent of airline ownership and control. The proposed rules may be implemented with few changes, may be implemented with major changes or we may see CRS systems become completely deregulated. We do not know when the proposed regulations might become final or whether our proposals will be accepted. Our business could be adversely affected under any of the possible scenarios.

46

---

The Commission of the European Union (the "Commission") is also engaged in a comprehensive review of its rules governing CRS systems. It is unclear at this time when the Commission will complete its review and what changes, if any, will be made to the E.U. rules. We could be unfairly and adversely affected if the E.U. rules are retained as to traditional global distribution systems used by travel agencies but are not applied to travel distribution Web sites owned by more than one airline.

We could also be adversely affected if changes to any of the foregoing CRS rules increased our cost of doing business, weakened the non-discriminatory participation rules to allow one or more large airlines owning a competing CRS to discontinue or to lower its level of participation in our global distribution system, or caused us to be subject to rules that do not apply to our global distribution competitors.

WE FACE TRADE BARRIERS OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA THAT LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE, WHICH COULD REQUIRE US TO INCREASE INCENTIVES, REDUCE PRICES, INCREASE SPENDING ON MARKETING OR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, OR TO OTHERWISE TAKE ACTIONS THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Trade barriers erected by non-U.S. travel suppliers, who are historically often government-owned, have on occasion prevented us from offering our products and services in their markets or have denied us content or features that they give to our competitors. Those trade barriers make our products and services less attractive to travel agencies in those countries than products and services offered by other global distribution systems that have such capability. The potential for us to add new travel agency subscribers exists primarily outside of North America. Those trade barriers have restricted our ability to gain market share outside of the U.S. Competition in those countries could require us to increase incentives, reduce prices, increase spending on marketing or product development, or otherwise to take actions that could adversely affect our results of operations.

OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO OTHER RISKS, WHICH MAY IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO GROW INTERNATIONALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OVERALL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

We face risks inherent in international operations, such as risks of:

•

currency exchange rate fluctuations,



•

local economic and political conditions, including conditions resulting from the war in Iraq,



•

restrictive governmental actions, such as trade protection measures, including export duties and quotas and custom duties and tariffs,



•

changes in legal or regulatory requirements,



•

import or export licensing requirements,



•

limitations on the repatriation of funds,



•

difficulty in obtaining distribution and support,



•

nationalization,



•

different accounting practices and potentially longer payment cycles,



•

seasonal reductions in business activity,



•

higher costs of doing business,



•

consumer protection laws and restrictions on pricing or discounts,

47

---

•

lack of, or the failure to implement, the appropriate infrastructure to support our technology,



•

lesser protection in some jurisdictions for our intellectual property,



•

disruptions of capital and disruptions of trading markets,



•

laws and policies of the U.S. affecting trade, foreign investment and loans and



•

foreign tax and other laws.

These risks may adversely affect our ability to conduct and grow business internationally, which could cause us to increase expenditures and costs, decrease our revenue growth or both.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

At June 30, 2003 our exposure to interest rates was related primarily to our marketable securities portfolio. Offsetting some of this exposure was the fixed to floating interest rate swaps on our notes payable and capital lease. The objectives of our marketable securities are safety of principal, liquidity maintenance, yield maximization and full investment of all available funds. As such, our investment portfolio consists primarily of high credit quality certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances, commercial paper, mortgage-backed and receivables-backed securities and corporate and government notes. If short-term interest rates had been 10% lower during the first and second quarters of 2003, our interest income from marketable securities would have decreased by approximately $0.6 million. This amount was determined by applying the hypothetical interest rate change to our average balance of marketable securities during the first six months of 2003.

We had fixed rate notes of $400 million ("Notes") and a $168 million capital lease obligation at June 30, 2003. We entered into fixed to floating interest rate swaps related to $300 million of the outstanding Notes, effectively converting $300 million of the $400 million fixed rate Notes into floating rate obligations. In June 2003, we also entered into a fixed to floating interest rate swap that effectively converts $100 million of the capital lease obligations into a floating rate obligation (See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on the swaps). If short-term interest rates had been 10% higher during the first half of 2003, our interest expense would have increased by approximately $0.5 million. This amount was determined by applying the hypothetical interest rate change to our floating rate borrowings balance during the first six months of 2003.

If our mix of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities changes significantly, we may enter into additional derivative transactions to manage our net interest exposure.

Foreign Currency Risk

We have various foreign operations in North America, South America, Europe, Australia and Asia. As a result of these business activities, we are exposed to foreign currency risk. However, these exposures have historically related to a small portion of our overall operations as a substantial majority of our business is transacted in the United States dollar. We were a party to certain foreign currency derivative contracts at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. These contracts were not material to our financial position or results of operations as of or for the three or six months ended June 30, 2003.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer ("CEO") and principal financial officer ("CFO") evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on these evaluations, our CEO and CFO believe (i) that our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in this Report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (ii) that our disclosure controls and procedures are functioning as designed.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. The Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the limitations in all control systems, no

49

---

evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Further, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (or in other factors) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions required with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.

Conclusions regarding disclosure controls. Based upon the required evaluation of disclosure controls, the CEO and CFO have concluded, as of June 30, 2003, that, subject to the limitations noted above, the Company's disclosure controls are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to management, including the CEO and CFO.
