The information in this report is being furnished and shall not
be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”), and is not to be incorporated by reference into any
filing by eBay Inc. under the Securities Act of 1933 or the
Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language
contained in such filing.
On July 16, 2008, eBay Inc. announced its financial results
for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. A copy of eBay’s
press release announcing its financial results and certain other
information is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
The attached press release includes the following financial
measures defined as “non-GAAP financial measures” by
the Securities and Exchange Commission: non-GAAP net income,
non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating margin,
non-GAAP effective tax rate, and free cash flow. These measures
may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other
companies. The presentation of this financial information, which
is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules
or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for the financial information prepared and
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. See “Non-GAAP Measures of Financial
Performance,” “Reconciliation of GAAP Operating
Margin to Non-GAAP Operating Margin,”
“Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to
Non-GAAP Net Income,” “Reconciliation of GAAP to
Non-GAAP Effective Tax Rate,” “Reconciliation of
Operating Cash Flows to Free Cash Flow,” and “Business
Outlook” included in the attached press release for further
information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures,
including a reconciliation of these measures to the nearest
comparable GAAP measures and an explanation of why eBay includes
these non-GAAP measures.
The attached press release also contains forward-looking
statements relating to eBay’s future performance. A more
thorough discussion of certain factors that may affect
eBay’s actual results is included under the captions
“Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations” in eBay’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K
and Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q.
Additional information will be included under those captions in
eBay’s Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
