International Local Revenue increased by 8%, and Local Billings were up 2% (down 1% FX-neutral); excluding Giftcloud, International Local Revenue grew 9% and International Local Billings increased by 5%, driven by improved organic performance from the new consumer platform and expanded supply in major International cities, particularly in Health, Beauty & Wellness and Things to Do offerings.
