eBAY INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2007 FINANCIAL RESULTS
 
San Jose, Calif, October 17, 2007 — eBay Inc. (Nasdaq: EBAY; www.ebay.com) reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2007.
 
eBay reported record consolidated Q3-07 net revenues of $1.89 billion, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 30%. GAAP operating loss was $938 million in Q3-07, representing (50%) of net revenues, compared to GAAP operating income of $339 million in Q3-06. GAAP net loss in Q3-07 was $936 million, or $0.69 loss per diluted share. Both the GAAP operating loss and GAAP net loss were the result of the previously announced goodwill impairment charge related to eBay’s acquisition of Skype.
 
Non-GAAP operating income was $593 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 28% and 31% of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income was $564 million, or $0.41 earnings per diluted share, representing a year-over-year increase of 53%.
 
The company purchased approximately 14.8 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of approximately $500 million during the quarter out of its authorized stock repurchase program of up to $2 billion by January 2009.
 
“During the quarter we made significant progress against our business unit strategies which resulted in record net revenues of $1.89 billion, a 30% year-over-year increase,” said eBay President and CEO, Meg Whitman. “eBay International, PayPal Merchant Services, StubHub, classifieds and our advertising businesses all performed above our expectations.”
 
Q3 Business Unit Discussion
 
Marketplaces
 
Overall, eBay’s Marketplaces business had a strong quarter, with strong top-line growth and profitability. The company continues to make significant investments aimed at its core business as well as growing its newer businesses.
 
Marketplaces net revenues totaled a record $1.32 billion in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 26%. eBay’s users posted a total of 556 million listings in Q3-07 representing a year-over-year decrease of 5%. These listings generated Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) of $14.40 billion in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year increase of 14%.
 
Payments
 
PayPal posted another excellent quarter of Total Payment Volume (TPV) and revenue growth, primarily driven by its Merchant Services business, with acceleration in both.
 
PayPal net revenues totaled a record $470 million in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 35%. Global TPV was $12.22 billion in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year increase of 34%. PayPal Merchant Services contributed $5.38 billion globally to the $12.22 billion in global TPV in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year increase of 61%.
 
Communications
 
Skype delivered a third consecutive quarter of segment profitability, excluding the goodwill impairment charge of $1.39 billion. Geographically, all three major regions, Europe, North America and Asia exhibited robust revenue growth.
 
Skype net revenues totaled a record $98 million in Q3-07, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 96%. Skype had 246 million registered user accounts at the end of Q3-07, representing a year-over-year increase of 81%.
 
Other selected financial results
 
Operating Margin — GAAP operating margin was (50%) in Q3-07, compared to 23% in Q3-06 due to the goodwill impairment charge of $1.39 billion. Non-GAAP operating margin decreased to 31.4% in Q3-07 from 32.1% in Q3-06. The decrease in non-GAAP operating margin is primarily the result of faster growth from our lower margin businesses, primarily PayPal and Skype, mostly offset by productivity gains.


 

Taxes — The GAAP effective tax rate for Q3-07 was (4%), compared to 26% for Q3-06 and 23% in Q2-07. The non-GAAP effective tax rate in Q3-07 was 10%, which was a decrease from 27% for Q3-06 and 25% in Q2-07 primarily due to a tax benefit from a ruling issued by a tax authority related to prior periods resulting in a favorable impact of 8 percentage points and the remaining decrease was due to changes in the estimated geographic mix of the company’s taxable income for the year.
 
Cash Flows — GAAP operating cash flows increased to $629 million in Q3-07. Free cash flow increased to $510 million in Q3-07.
 
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments — The company’s cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaled $4.44 billion at the end of Q3-07.
 
“Our third quarter results reflect strong revenue growth, even stronger non-GAAP earnings growth, and excellent free cash flow. With strong financial performance in each of the three quarters of the year, we approach the remainder of the year focused on the execution of our business plan and confident in our ability to deliver strong full-year revenue and earnings growth,” said Bob Swan, Chief Financial Officer, eBay Inc.
 
Business Outlook
 
Fourth Quarter 2007 — eBay expects consolidated net revenues for Q4-07 to be in the range of $2.100 billion to $2.150 billion. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for Q4-07 are expected to be in the range of $0.39 to $0.41. These amounts assume a US dollar to Euro exchange rate of $1.38.
 
Full Year 2007 — eBay now expects consolidated net revenues for 2007 to be in the range of $7.600 billion to $7.650 billion. Non-GAAP operating margin for 2007 is expected to be approximately 33%. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for 2007 are now expected to be in the range of $1.47 to $1.49. These amounts assume a Q4-07 US dollar to Euro exchange rate of $1.38 and actual rates through the first three quarters of 2007.
 
Quarterly Conference Call
 
eBay will host a conference call to discuss third quarter results at 2 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast of the conference call, together with a slide presentation that includes supplemental financial information and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures, can be accessed through the company’s Investor Relations website at http://investor.ebay.com. In addition, an archive of the webcast will be accessible through the same link.

eBay Inc.
 
Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance
 
To supplement the company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, eBay uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate, and free cash flow.
 
These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with eBay’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate eBay’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
 
Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in the tables included on page 12, 14 and 15 of this press release.
 
These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the company’s current financial performance and the company’s prospects for the future. Specifically, the company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses, and net purchases of property and equipment that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. In addition, because eBay has historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, the company believes the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in the company’s financial reporting.
 
For its internal budgeting process, and as discussed further below, eBay’s management uses financial statements that do not include stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options and employee stock purchases, employer payroll taxes on employee non-qualified stock option gains, amortization or impairment of acquired intangible assets and the income taxes associated with the foregoing. In addition to the corresponding GAAP measures, eBay’s management also uses the foregoing non-GAAP measures in reviewing the financial results of eBay.
 
eBay excludes the following items from non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP effective tax rate:
 
Stock-based compensation related to stock options and employee stock purchases.  These expenses consist of expenses for stock options and employee stock purchases under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment.” eBay excludes stock-based compensation expenses from its non-GAAP measures primarily because they are non-cash expenses that eBay does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results.
 
Employer payroll taxes on employee non-qualified stock option gains.  This amount is dependent on eBay’s stock price and the timing and size of exercise by employees of their stock options, over which management has virtually no control, and as such does not correlate to eBay’s operation of the business.
 
Amortization or impairment of acquired intangible assets and impairment of goodwill.  eBay incurs amortization or impairments of acquired intangible assets in connection with acquisitions and investments. eBay excludes these items because they arise from eBay’s prior acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the current operating results of eBay’s business.
 
Income taxes associated with certain non-GAAP entries.  This amount is used to present stock-based compensation and the other amounts described above on an after-tax basis consistent with the presentation of non-GAAP net income.
 
In addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, eBay also uses free cash flow. Free cash flow represents operating cash flows less net purchases of property and equipment. eBay considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of property, buildings, and equipment, which can then be used to, among other things, invest in eBay’s business, make strategic acquisitions, strengthen the balance sheet and repurchase stock. A limitation of free cash flow is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the company’s cash balance for the period.
