GOOGLE ANNOUNCES RECORD REVENUES FOR

SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2005

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – July 21, 2005 – Google Inc. (Nasdaq: GOOG) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

“We had an excellent quarter. We continued to innovate, we continued to execute and we stayed focused on our users,” said Eric Schmidt, Google chief executive officer. “Google had another solid performance.”

Google reported record revenues of $1.384 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, up 98% year over year. Google reports its revenues, consistent with GAAP, on a gross basis without deducting traffic acquisition costs or TAC, the portion of revenues shared with partners.

• Income from operations, on a GAAP basis, was $476 million, or 34.4% of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $171 million or 24.4% of revenues for the second quarter of 2004.

• Income from operations included a $47 million non-cash, stock-based compensation charge compared to a $75 million non-cash, stock-based compensation charge in the prior year’s second quarter.

• Net income on a GAAP basis for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was computed based on the following income statement or condensed income statement line items: Revenues of $1.384 billion less TAC of $494 million, less both other costs and expenses before stock-based compensation of $367 million and stock-based compensation of $47 million, increased by other income of $20 million and then reduced by a provision for income taxes of $153 million.

• Net income on a GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2005 was $343 million, (reflecting a 31% tax rate in contrast to last quarter’s 19% rate, which reflected tax accounting associated with stock option activity), or $1.19 per share on a diluted basis 287.2 million weighted average shares outstanding. This compared to net income for the second quarter of 2004 of $79 million or $0.30 per share on a diluted basis 266.3 million weighted average shares outstanding.

• Some Wall Street analysts use non-GAAP measures to analyze our operating results. For instance, they may subtract TAC of $494 million from revenues of $1.384 billion to arrive at a net revenues amount. Also, certain analysts may arrive at net income before stock-based compensation by subtracting traffic acquisition costs of $494 million, other costs and expenses before stock-based compensation of $367 million, adding back other income of $20 million and subtracting our provision for income taxes of $153 million from revenues of $1.384 billion.

• Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2005 totaled $625 million as compared to $163 million for the second quarter of 2004, an increase of 283%.

• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) which is an alternative measure of liquidity to GAAP net cash provided by operating activities (and is defined as income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, the non-cash stock-based compensation charge and in-process R&D), increased by $312 million or 112% to $590 million (or 43% of revenues) in the second quarter of 2005 from $278 million in the second quarter of 2004 (or 40% of revenues).

Financial Highlights

Revenues – Revenues in the second quarter totaled a record $1.384 billion, representing a 10% increase over the first quarter of 2005 and a 98% year-over-year increase. This revenue increase reflects strong traffic and monetization growth in the quarter as well as advertisers’ growing recognition of the Internet as an effective advertising medium.

Google-Sites Revenues - Google-owned sites generated $737 million or 53% of total revenues. This represents an increase of 115% over the second quarter of 2004.

The Google Network - Revenues generated on Google’s partner sites, through AdSense programs, contributed $630 million, or 46% of total revenues, an 82% increase over the Network revenues generated in the same quarter last year.

TAC – Traffic Acquisition Costs, the portion of revenues shared with Google’s partners, increased to $494 million. This compares to total payments to partners of $277 million in the second quarter of 2004.

Income from Operations – Income from operations in the second quarter, on a GAAP basis, was $476 million or 34.4% of revenues, and included a non-cash charge of $47 million for stock-based compensation. This compares to income from operations of $171 million or 24.4% of revenues in the second quarter of 2004, when the stock-based compensation charge was $75 million. This improvement in operating margins was primarily because of decreases in TAC, Sales and Marketing expense and stock-based compensation expense as a percentage of revenues, offset by increases in R&D, other cost of revenues and G&A expense.

Income Taxes – Google recorded a provision for income taxes of $153 million in the second quarter of 2005, an effective tax rate of 31% as compared to a $90 million provision for income taxes and a 53% effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2004. We continue to expect that the effective tax rate for 2005 will be less than 30%. However if future revenues recognized by Google’s Irish subsidiary are not as proportionately significant as expected, Google’s effective tax rate will be higher than expected.

Net Income – Net income on a GAAP basis increased to $343 million or 24.8% of revenues in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $79 million or 11.3% of revenues in the second quarter of 2004. Earnings on a per share diluted basis were $1.19 in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $0.30 in the second quarter of 2004.

Cash Flow – Net cash provided by operating activities increased 283% to $625 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $163 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Free cash flow is an alternative non-GAAP measure of liquidity to GAAP net cash provided by operating activities and is calculated as operating cash flows less capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were approximately $158 million in the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to $96 million in the three months ended June 30, 2004. Free cash flow for the three months ended June 30, 2005 totaled $467 million as compared to $67 million for the same period in 2004, an increase of approximately 600%.

Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, the non-cash stock-based compensation charge and in-process R&D. It is another alternative measure of liquidity to GAAP net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA increased to approximately $590 million in the second quarter of 2005 (or 43% of revenues) from $278 million (or 40% of revenues) in the second quarter of 2004.

The reconciliations of free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the GAAP measure of liquidity, is set forth at the back of this release.

Cash – As of June 30, 2005, Google had a cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance of $2.9 billion.

On a worldwide basis, Google employed 4,183 full time employees as of June 30, 2005, up from 3,482 as of March 31, 2005.

About non-GAAP financial measures.

To supplement Google’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Google uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Liquidity Measures to the Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures” set forth at the back of this release.

Google’s management believes that free cash flows and adjusted EBITDA provide meaningful supplemental information regarding liquidity. Google believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of Google’s liquidity and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Google’s historical liquidity.

Google computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year. The accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.
