Non-GAAP operating margin decreased to 31.9% for the quarter, compared to 32.4% for the same period last year. The
decrease in operating margins was caused primarily by the company’s faster growing, lower-margin businesses, such as
PayPal and Skype.
eBay Inc. generated $738 million of operating cash flow during the second quarter. Free cash flow during the quarter was
$617 million.
Quarterly Business Highlights
eBay Inc. repurchased approximately 19 million shares of its outstanding common stock at a cost of

The Marketplaces business unit, which consists of eBay, Shopping.com, StubHub, Kijiji and other ecommerce sites, had a
strong second quarter, generating $1.46 billion in revenue, equating to 13% year-over-year growth. The business unit saw
strong growth in advertising, StubHub and classifieds. Revenue from our text and graphical advertising partnerships grew
183% year-over-year. Net revenues generated outside the U.S. were 56% of total Marketplaces net revenues for the
quarter. Gross merchandise volume was $15.68 billion for the quarter, an increase of 8% over the second quarter of 2007.
Marketplaces continues to focus on customer-facing initiatives designed to make transactions on the eBay platform safer
and its various global sites easier to use, while enhancing selection in a uniquely eBay way.

PayPal had a strong quarter with $602 million in net revenue, an increase of 33% year-over-year. Net total payment
volume (TPV) for the quarter was $14.93 billion, an increase of 35% year-over-year. The net revenue and net TPV growth

jurisdictions and applicable laws become more restrictive and any changes the company may make to its product
offerings in response to such risk; the regulatory, intellectual property, competitive and other risks specific to Skype; the
competitive, regulatory, credit card association, and other risks specific to PayPal, especially as it continues to expand
geographically; the company’s ability to upgrade and develop its systems, infrastructure and customer service capabilities
at reasonable cost; the company’s ability to maintain site stability and performance on all of its sites while adding new
products and features in a timely fashion; changes in political, business and economic conditions, including conditions that

(1) Beginning with the first quarter of 2008, we reclassified revenue generated primarily from our Marketplaces non-gross merchandise volume based
businesses (which includes Shopping.com, Rent.com and our classified websites) from “Net Transaction Revenues” to “Marketing Services and
Other Revenues” in order to more closely align our net transaction revenue presentation with our key operating metrics. “Marketing Services and
Other Revenues” also includes amounts previously reflected under “Advertising and Other Revenue.” Prior period amounts have been reclassified
to conform to the current presentation. Consolidated revenues, as well as total segment revenues, are unchanged.

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 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 13, 15 and 16 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, employer payroll taxes on stock-based compensation, 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 margin and
non-GAAP effective tax rate:
Stock-based compensation expense. This expense consists of expenses for stock options, restricted stock 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 stock-based compensation. This amount is dependent on eBay’s stock price and the timing and size of
exercise by employees of their stock options and restricted stock, over which management has limited to 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. 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.
