DoubleClick is a leading provider of products and services used by direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers to plan, execute and analyze their marketing programs. Combining marketing technology and data expertise, DoubleClick’s products and services help its customers to optimize their advertising and marketing campaigns online and through direct mail. DoubleClick offers a broad array of marketing technology and data products and services to its customers to allow them to address a full range of the marketing process, from pre-campaign planning and testing, to execution, measurement and campaign refinements.

DoubleClick derives its revenues from two business units: Technology (or “TechSolutions”) and Data. DoubleClick TechSolutions includes its ad management products, consisting of the DART for Publishers Service, the DART Enterprise ad serving software product, the DART for Advertisers Service, a suite of email products based on DoubleClick’s DARTmail Service and campaign management and analytics products and services. DoubleClick Data includes its Abacus division, which utilizes the information contributed to the proprietary Abacus database by Abacus Alliance members to make direct marketing more effective for Abacus Alliance members and other clients.

During 2002, through a series of transactions, DoubleClick divested its media businesses and no longer reports a DoubleClick Media segment.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DoubleClick, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and subsidiaries over which it exercises a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which DoubleClick does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which DoubleClick does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, contain all the normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim periods. Results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from, but does not include all the disclosures contained in, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of DoubleClick for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In connection with the sale of its North American media business (See Note 2), DoubleClick received, among other things, 4.8 million shares of MaxWorldwide, Inc. common stock. DoubleClick accounts for this investment in MaxWorldwide, Inc. under the equity method of accounting and reports its share of MaxWorldwide’s results on a 90-day lag.

In DoubleClick’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 and DoubleClick’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated April 15, 2003, DoubleClick reported its share of

MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively, based on estimates of MaxWorldwide’s results derived from financial information provided to DoubleClick by MaxWorldwide prior to the date of those reports.

On May 9, 2003, MaxWorldwide filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Based on the financial information contained in MaxWorldwide’s Form 10-K, we recorded an additional expense in the first quarter of 2003 of approximately $0.5 million to reconcile our estimates of MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively, with the actual results reported in MaxWorldwide’s Form 10-K. Despite recording this additional expense, DoubleClick’s earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $0.01, which is consistent with the earnings per share reported by DoubleClick in its Form 8-K, dated April 15, 2003.

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash and highly liquid investments with a remaining contractual maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less.

Marketable securities consist of government and corporate debt securities and are classified as current or non-current assets depending on their dates of maturity. As of March 31, 2003, all marketable securities included in non-current assets have maturities greater than one year.

DoubleClick classifies its investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. DoubleClick recognizes gains and losses when these securities are sold using the specific identification method. DoubleClick has not recognized any material gains or losses from the sale of its investments in marketable securities.

Restricted cash represents funds to cover office lease security deposits and our automated clearinghouse payment function.

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term. As required by SOP 98-1, Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, DoubleClick capitalizes certain computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Capitalized computer software is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated life of the software, generally three to five years.

DoubleClick records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. DoubleClick has elected to perform its annual analysis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year as of October 1st. No indicators of impairment were identified during the first quarter of 2003.

Intangible assets include patents, trademarks, customer lists, and purchased technology. Such intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are generally two to five years.

DoubleClick assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to be generated by an asset’s disposition or use may not be sufficient to support its carrying amount. If such undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to support the recorded value of assets, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of long-lived assets to their estimated fair value.

DoubleClick’s revenues are presented net of a provision for advertiser credits, which is estimated and established in the period in which services are provided. These credits are generally issued in the event that delivered advertisements do not meet contractual specifications. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Technology. Revenues include fees earned from the use of DART ad management products and services and email products and services. Revenues derived from these products and services are recognized in the period the advertising impressions or emails are delivered, provided collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. DART Service activation fees are deferred and recognized ratably over the expected term of the customer relationship.

For DoubleClick’s licensed ad serving and campaign management software solutions, revenues are recognized when product installation is complete, which generally occurs when customers begin utilizing the product, there is pervasive evidence of an arrangement, collection is reasonably assured, the fee is fixed or determinable, and vendor-specific objective evidence exists to allocate the total fees to all elements of the arrangement. A portion of the initial ad serving software license fee is attributed to the customer’s right to receive, at no additional charge, software upgrades released during the subsequent twelve months. Revenues attributable to software upgrades are deferred and recognized ratably over the period covered by the software license agreement, which is generally one year.

Revenues from consulting services are recognized as the services are performed and customer-support revenues are deferred and recognized ratably over the period covered by the customer support agreement, which is generally one year.

Data. DoubleClick provides services to its clients that result in a deliverable product in the form of consumer and business prospect lists. DoubleClick recognizes revenues when the product is shipped to the client, provided collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Changes in DoubleClick’s interest in its affiliates arising as the result of their issuance of common stock are recorded as gains and losses in the consolidated statement of operations, except for any transactions that must be recorded directly to equity in accordance with the provisions of SAB No. 51.

DoubleClick uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and to operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The functional currencies of DoubleClick’s foreign subsidiaries are their respective local currencies. The financial statements maintained in local currencies are translated to United States dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities and average rates during the period for revenues, cost of revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Net gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and were not significant during the periods presented.

DoubleClick accounts for its employee stock option plans under the intrinsic value method, in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Under APB 25, generally no compensation expense is recorded when the terms of the award are fixed and the exercise price of the employee stock option equals/or exceeds the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. DoubleClick has adopted the disclosure-only requirements of SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB No. 25 for transactions with employees and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock grants made as if the fair value based method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions.

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure” which amends SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” See “New accounting pronouncements.”

Had DoubleClick determined compensation expense of employee stock options based on the estimated fair value of the stock options at the grant date, consistent with the guidelines of SFAS 123, DoubleClick’s net

income would have decreased and net loss would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below, in thousands except per share amounts:

The per share weighted average fair value of options granted for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 was $3.25 and $6.98, respectively, on the grant date with the following weighted average assumptions:

The pro forma impact of options on the net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, is not representative of the effects on net income (loss) for future years, as future years will include the effects of additional years of stock option grants.

Basic net income (loss) per common share excludes the effect of potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted net income (loss) per share adjusts this calculation to reflect the impact of outstanding convertible securities and stock options to the extent that their inclusion would have a dilutive effect on net income per share for the reporting period.

At March 31, 2003 and 2002, outstanding options of approximately 15.7 million and 20.7 million, respectively, to purchase shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share because to do so would have had an antidilutive effect for the periods presented. Similarly, the computation of diluted net loss per share at March 31, 2003 and 2002 excludes the effect of 3.8 million and 5.3 million shares, respectively, issuable upon conversion of the 4.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2006, since their inclusion would also have had an antidilutive effect.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to current year presentation.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS No. 146”). SFAS No. 146 nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring” (EITF 94-3). The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and EITF 94-3 relates to the recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability be recognized for those costs only when the liability is incurred, that is, when it meets the definition of a liability in the FASB’s conceptual framework. In contrast, EITF 94-3 required recognition of a liability for an exit cost when management committed to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes fair value as the objective for initial measurement of liabilities related to exit or disposal activities. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 and has no effect on exit or disposal activities begun prior to this date.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” This Statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. DoubleClick will continue to account for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25. DoubleClick has adopted the disclosure only provision of SFAS No. 148 which have been incorporated into these financial statements in the accompanying footnotes.

On January 18, 2002, DoubleClick completed its acquisition of MessageMedia, Inc. (“MessageMedia”), a provider of permission-based email marketing and messaging solutions. The acquisition of MessageMedia

has allowed DoubleClick to expand its suite of email product and service offerings as well as broaden its client base.

DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding shares, options and warrants of MessageMedia in exchange for approximately one million shares of DoubleClick common stock valued at approximately $7.5 million, and stock options and warrants to acquire DoubleClick common stock valued at approximately $0.2 million. In connection with the acquisition, DoubleClick loaned $2.0 million to MessageMedia to satisfy MessageMedia’s operating requirements. The loan was extinguished upon the closing of the acquisition and included as a component of the purchase price. The purchase price, inclusive of approximately $1.6 million of direct acquisition costs, was approximately $11.3 million.

On June 26, 2002, DoubleClick acquired the remaining 50% of the Abacus Direct Europe (“Abacus Direct Europe”) joint venture that it did not previously own from VNU Marketing Information Europe & Asia B.V., an affiliate of Claritas (UK) Limited. The joint venture was formed in November 1998 and provides database-marketing services to the direct marketing industry, primarily in the United Kingdom. DoubleClick’s investment in the joint venture was previously accounted for under the equity method of accounting. DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding shares of Abacus Direct Europe held by VNU in exchange for approximately $3.7 million in cash and direct acquisition costs.

On November 4, 2002, DoubleClick completed its acquisition of Protagona plc (“Protagona”), a campaign management software company based in the United Kingdom. In the transaction, DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding shares of Protagona in exchange for approximately $13.6 million in cash and approximately $0.2 million in direct acquisition costs.

The results of operations of the acquisitions described above have been included in DoubleClick’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from the respective dates of acquisition.

On January 28, 2002, DoubleClick completed the sale of its European Media business to AdLINK Internet Media AG (“AdLINK”), a German provider of Internet advertising solutions, in exchange for $26.3 million and the assumption by AdLINK of liabilities associated with DoubleClick’s European Media business. Intercompany liabilities in an amount equal to $4.3 million were settled through a cash payment by AdLINK to DoubleClick at the closing of the transaction. Following the closing of the transaction described above, United Internet AG (“United Internet”), AdLINK’s largest shareholder, exercised its right to sell to DoubleClick 15% of the outstanding common shares of AdLINK in exchange for $30.6 million. Pursuant to its agreement with United Internet, the exercise of this right caused DoubleClick’s option to acquire an additional 21% of AdLINK common shares from United Internet to vest. This option is only exercisable over a two-year period if AdLINK has achieved EBITDA-positive results for two out of three consecutive fiscal quarters before December 2003. EBITDA, as defined in the option agreement, is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and one-time charges, such as restructuring costs, mergers and acquisition related costs, and other extraordinary items, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Should AdLINK fail to achieve these results, the option will expire unexercisable in December 2003. AdLINK achieved EBITDA-positive results in the fourth quarter of 2002 but failed to achieve EBITDA-positive results in the first quarter of 2003.

As the result of the transactions described above, DoubleClick sold its European Media business and received a 15% interest in AdLINK, which represented approximately 3.9 million shares valued at approximately $8.3 million. DoubleClick’s option to acquire an additional 21% of the outstanding common shares of AdLINK from United Internet also vested. DoubleClick was partially reimbursed $2.0 million for its cash outlays related to the acquisitions of, and payments with respect to, the minority interests in certain of its European subsidiaries pursuant to its agreement to sell its European Media business. DoubleClick’s investment in AdLINK is included in “Investments in affiliates” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Revenue recognized from sales to AdLINK was approximately $0.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

On July 10, 2002, DoubleClick sold its North American Media business to L90, Inc. Upon completion of the transaction, L90, Inc. was renamed MaxWorldwide, Inc. (“MaxWorldwide”). In exchange for the North American Media business, DoubleClick received 4.8 million shares in MaxWorldwide and $5 million in cash. The 4.8 million shares represented 16.1% of outstanding MaxWorldwide common stock and were valued at approximately $3.1 million. DoubleClick may also receive an additional $6.0 million if, during the three-year period subsequent to consummation of the transaction, MaxWorldwide has achieved EBITDA-positive results, for two out of three consecutive quarters. EBITDA, as defined in the merger agreement, is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding certain non-recurring items. During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, MaxWorldwide did not achieve EBITDA-positive results. MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were not publicly available as of the date of this filing.

On August 13, 2002, MaxWorldwide repurchased 5,596,972 shares of its common stock. As the result of this repurchase, DoubleClick’s ownership percentage increased to 19.8%.

DoubleClick accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting and reports its share of MaxWorldwide’s results on a 90-day lag. The investment is included in “Investments in affiliates” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On March 12, 2003, MaxWorldwide announced that it has agreed to sell its MaxOnline division to Focus Interactive, Inc. for approximately $5.0 million in cash plus additional amounts contingent upon the satisfaction of specified conditions. The sale is subject to MaxWorldwide shareholder approval and other closing conditions. In addition, in their Form 10-K, MaxWorldwide reported that if the sale of its MaxOnline division is consummated, it currently intends to adopt a plan of liquidation and dissolution following the sale pursuant to which it would liquidate and dissolve the company. DoubleClick is evaluating the potential effect of the proposed transaction on its right to receive the $6.0 million in contingent cash consideration from the sale of DoubleClick’s North American Media business to MaxWorldwide in July 2002 discussed above.

DoubleClick recognized revenue of approximately $0.8 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2003 relating to services provided to MaxWorldwide.

On May 6, 2002, DoubleClick sold its @plan research product line to NetRatings, Inc. (“NetRatings”) a provider of technology-driven Internet audience information solutions for media and commerce, in exchange for $12.0 million in cash and 505,739 shares of NetRatings common stock valued at approximately

$6.1 million. DoubleClick sold the NetRatings shares in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003.

On December 26, 2002, DoubleClick sold 45,049 shares of common stock in DoubleClick Japan and received proceeds of $14.3 million, reducing its ownership interest from 38.2% to 15.6%. As a result of this transaction, DoubleClick will account for its remaining 31,271 shares in DoubleClick Japan under the equity method of accounting. DoubleClick will also retain one seat on DoubleClick Japan’s board of directors. DoubleClick’s investment in DoubleClick Japan is included in “Investments in affiliates” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Revenue recognized through services provided to DoubleClick Japan was approximately $0.8 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations have been prepared assuming that the acquisitions of Protagona, Abacus Direct Europe, and MessageMedia, consummated during 2002, and the dispositions of the European and North American Media businesses, @plan research product line, and a portion of our interest in DoubleClick Japan completed during 2002, occurred at the beginning of 2002. This pro forma financial information should not be considered indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved had the acquisitions and dispositions been completed on the dates indicated and does not purport to indicate results of operations as of any future date or any future period.

DoubleClick’s investments in affiliates at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 consist of the following:

During the first quarter of 2003, DoubleClick sold its remaining investment in NetRatings, Inc. and received proceeds of approximately $0.6 million. The gain recognized on the sale of this investment was not material.

DoubleClick’s investment in AdLINK Internet Media AG represents an investment in a publicly traded company which is accounted for as available-for-sale marketable securities. Accordingly this investment is carried at fair value. At March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 DoubleClick’s cost basis in this investment was approximately $1.9 million.

As of March 31, 2003 DoubleClick’s investment in MaxWorldwide, Inc. and DoubleClick Japan represent investments in publicly traded companies which are accounted under the equity method of accounting. At March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 the fair value of these investments were as follows:

Amortization expense was $3.0 million and $3.6 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of amortization expense relating to purchased technology has been included as a component of cost of revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Based on the balance of intangible assets at March 31, 2003, the annual amortization expense for each of the succeeding five fiscal years is estimated to be $8.7 million, $2.6 million, $0.9 million, $0.8 million, and $0.4 million in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007, respectively.

Throughout 2002, management took additional steps to realign its sales, development and administrative organization and reduce corporate overhead to position DoubleClick for profitable growth in the future consistent with management’s long-term objectives. This involved the involuntary termination of approximately 250 employees, primarily from DoubleClick’s TechSolutions division, as well as charges for excess real estate space and closure of several offices. During fiscal 2002, DoubleClick recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $98.4 million, of which $1.4 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2002.

In determining the restructuring charge associated with its future lease commitments, DoubleClick engaged a third party real estate firm to provide estimates of the expected future sublease income for its excess

and idle space, which also includes an estimate of the time period required to identify new sublessees. This analysis was performed based on the current real estate market conditions in the local markets where DoubleClick’s facilities are located. This real estate firm also provided estimates of lease termination/buyout fees landlords may charge to terminate existing leases rather than subleasing idle and excess space. DoubleClick’s restructuring charge relating to future lease commitments is based on its review of this information. Should market conditions or other circumstances change, this information may be updated and additional charges may be required.

The following table sets forth a summary of the costs and related charges for DoubleClick’s restructuring charges and the balance of the restructuring reserves established:

As of March 31, 2003, approximately $49.3 million and $54.9 million remains accrued in ‘Accrued expenses and other current liabilities’ and ‘Other long-term liabilities’, respectively.

On April 18, 2003, DoubleClick entered into an agreement to terminate one of its existing leases, which would require a payment of approximately $14.5 million in cash upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. These termination fees were accrued in previous periods and are included as a component of ‘Accrued expenses and other current liabilities’.

In April 2002, a consolidated amended class action complaint alleging violations of the federal securities laws in connection with DoubleClick’s follow-on offerings was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York naming as defendants DoubleClick, some of its officers and directors and certain underwriters of DoubleClick’s follow-on offerings. In October 2002, the action was dismissed against the named officers and directors without prejudice. However, claims against the Company remain. In July 2002, the Company and the other issuers in the consolidated cases filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim, which was denied as to the Company in February 2003. DoubleClick intends to dispute these allegations and defend this lawsuit vigorously.

DoubleClick is organized into two segments: Technology (or “TechSolutions”) and Data. During 2002, through a series of transactions, DoubleClick divested of its media businesses and no longer reports a DoubleClick Media segment.

Comprehensive loss consists of net income (loss), unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities and foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive loss was $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

	•	DoubleClick Technology Solutions (“Technology” or “TechSolutions”); and

	•	DoubleClick Data (“Data”).

During 2002, through a series of transactions, we divested of our media businesses and no longer report a DoubleClick Media segment.

DoubleClick TechSolutions. DoubleClick TechSolutions includes our ad management products and services, advertiser products, email technology products and campaign management and analytics products and services. Our ad management products enable Web sites to generate advertising revenue with a choice between our DART for Publishers Service, a Web-based application, and DART Enterprise, our licensed ad serving software product.

We also offer SiteAdvance, a hosted Web site measurement and analysis solution that was designed specifically for online merchants.

DoubleClick Data. DoubleClick Data consists of our Abacus division, which provides products and services to direct marketers.

In connection with the sale of its North American media business, DoubleClick received, among other things, 4.8 million shares of MaxWorldwide, Inc. common stock. DoubleClick accounts for this investment in MaxWorldwide, Inc. under the equity method of accounting and reports its share of MaxWorldwide’s results on a 90-day lag.

In DoubleClick’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 and DoubleClick’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated April 15, 2003, DoubleClick reported its share of MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively, based on estimates of MaxWorldwide’s results derived from financial information provided to DoubleClick by MaxWorldwide prior to the date of those reports.

On May 9, 2003, MaxWorldwide filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Based on the financial information contained in MaxWorldwide’s Form 10-K, DoubleClick recorded an additional expense in the first quarter of 2003 of approximately $0.5 million to reconcile our estimates of MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively, with the actual results reported in MaxWorldwide’s Form 10-K. Despite recording this additional expense, DoubleClick’s earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $0.01 which is consistent with the earnings per share reported by DoubleClick in its Form 8-K, dated April 15, 2003.

DoubleClick’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon DoubleClick’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires DoubleClick to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions, which are believed to be reasonable, based on the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. A variance in the estimates or assumptions used could yield a materially different accounting result. Described below are the areas where we believe that the estimates, judgments or assumptions that we have made, if different, would have yielded the most significant differences in our financial statements.

DoubleClick’s restructuring reserves are primarily related to our facilities. In determining the restructuring charge associated with our future lease commitments, DoubleClick engaged a third party real estate firm to provide estimates of the future sublease income for its excess and idle space, which also includes an estimate of the time period required to identify sublessees. This analysis was performed based on the current real estate market conditions in the local markets where DoubleClick’s facilities are located. This real estate firm also provided estimates of lease termination/ buyout fees landlords may charge to terminate existing leases rather than subleasing idle and excess space. DoubleClick’s restructuring charge relating to future lease commitments is based on its review of this information. Should market conditions change, this information may be updated and additional charges may be required.

DoubleClick records reductions to revenue for the estimated future credits issuable to its customers in the event that delivered advertisements do not meet contractual specifications. DoubleClick follows this method since reasonably dependable estimates of such credits can be made based on historical experience. Should the actual amount of customer credits differ from DoubleClick’s estimates, revisions to the associated allowance may be required. DoubleClick maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of DoubleClick’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances for doubtful accounts could be required in subsequent periods.

DoubleClick invests in companies, technologies and intangible assets in areas within its strategic focus, some of which have volatile fair values and uncertain profit potentials. DoubleClick evaluates its investments for impairment on a periodic basis and reduces the carrying values of such assets to their estimated fair value when it believes an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other than temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of strategic investments could indicate an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments may not be reflected in an investment’s current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring impairment charges in the future.

When it is determined that the carrying value of investments may not be recoverable, management measures impairment based on projected discounted cash flows, revenue projections, recent transactions involving similar businesses and price/revenue multiples at which they were bought and sold, price/revenue multiples of competitors, and the closing market price for investments that are publicly traded.

DoubleClick evaluates its goodwill for impairment annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. DoubleClick has elected to perform its annual analysis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year as of October 1st. In accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, DoubleClick utilizes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. Management tests for impairment based on projected discounted cash flows, revenue projections, recent transactions involving similar businesses and price/revenue multiples at which they were bought and sold and price/revenue multiples of competitors.

DoubleClick assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets, including intangible assets held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to be generated by an asset’s disposition or use may not be sufficient to support its carrying value. If such undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to support the recorded value of assets, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of long-lived assets to their estimated fair value.

Pursuant to SFAS 109, DoubleClick records a valuation allowance to the extent its deferred tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized. For the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, DoubleClick has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets since management believes that after considering all the available objective evidence, both positive and negative, historical and prospective, with greater weight given to historical evidence, it is not more likely that not that these assets will be realized. In the event that DoubleClick were to determine that it would be able to realize some or all of its deferred tax assets, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would increase income and/or adjust additional paid-in capital in the period such a determination was made.

Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term. DoubleClick periodically reviews the useful lives of its assets for appropriateness. In the event that it is determined that the estimated useful life of its assets needs to be adjusted to reflect depreciation expense over the remaining time that the assets are expected to remain in service, future income or losses will be impacted in the subsequent periods after such a determination is made.

On January 18, 2002, DoubleClick completed its acquisition of MessageMedia, Inc., a provider of permission-based, email marketing and messaging solutions. The acquisition of MessageMedia has allowed DoubleClick to expand its suite of email product and service offerings as well as broaden its client base. DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding shares, options and warrants of MessageMedia in exchange for approximately one million shares of DoubleClick common stock valued at approximately $7.5 million, and stock options and warrants to acquire DoubleClick common stock valued at approximately $0.2 million. In connection with the acquisition, DoubleClick loaned $2.0 million to MessageMedia to satisfy MessageMedia’s operating requirements. The loan was extinguished upon the closing of the acquisition and included as a component of the purchase price. The purchase price, inclusive of approximately $1.6 million of direct acquisition costs, was approximately $11.3 million.

On June 26, 2002, DoubleClick acquired the remaining 50% of the Abacus Direct Europe joint venture that it did not previously own from VNU Marketing Information Europe & Asia B.V, an affiliate of Claritas (UK) Limited. The joint venture was formed in November 1998 and provides database-marketing services to the direct marketing industry, primarily in the United Kingdom. DoubleClick’s investment in the joint venture was previously accounted for under the equity method of accounting. DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding

On November 4, 2002, DoubleClick completed its acquisition of Protagona plc, a campaign management software company based in the United Kingdom. In the transaction, DoubleClick acquired all the outstanding shares of Protagona in exchange for approximately $13.6 million in cash and direct acquisition costs.

On January 28, 2002, DoubleClick completed the sale of its European Media business to AdLINK Internet Media AG, a German provider of Internet advertising solutions, in exchange for $26.3 million and the assumption by AdLINK of liabilities associated with DoubleClick’s European Media business. Intercompany liabilities in an amount equal to $4.3 million were settled through a cash payment by AdLINK to DoubleClick at the closing of the transaction. Following the closing of the transaction described above, United Internet AG, AdLINK’s largest shareholder, exercised its right to sell to DoubleClick 15% of the outstanding common shares of AdLINK in exchange for $30.6 million. Pursuant to its agreement with United Internet, the exercise of this right caused DoubleClick’s option to acquire an additional 21% of AdLINK common shares from United Internet to vest. This option is only exercisable over a two-year period if AdLINK has achieved EBITDA-positive results for two out of three consecutive fiscal quarters before December 2003. EBITDA, as defined in the option agreement, is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and one-time charges such as restructuring costs, mergers and acquisition related costs, and other extraordinary items, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Should AdLINK fail to achieve these results, the option will expire unexercisable in December 2003. AdLINK achieved EBITDA-positive results in the fourth quarter of 2002 but failed to achieve EBITDA positive results in the first quarter of 2003.

As the result of the transactions described above, DoubleClick sold its European Media business and received a 15% interest in AdLINK, which represented approximately 3.9 million shares valued at approximately $8.3 million. DoubleClick’s option to acquire an additional 21% of the outstanding common shares of AdLINK from United Internet also vested. DoubleClick was partially reimbursed $2.0 million for its cash outlays related to the acquisitions of, and payments with respect to, the minority interests in certain of its European subsidiaries pursuant to its agreement to sell its European Media business. As a result of this transaction, DoubleClick recognized a loss of approximately $1.4 million, which has been included in “Loss on sale of business” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On July 10, 2002, DoubleClick sold its North American Media business to L90, Inc. Upon completion of the transaction, L90, Inc. was renamed MaxWorldwide, Inc. In exchange for the North American Media business, DoubleClick received 4.8 million shares in MaxWorldwide and $5 million in cash. The 4.8 million shares represented 16.1% of outstanding MaxWorldwide common stock and were valued at approximately $3.1 million. DoubleClick may also receive an additional $6 million if, during the three-year period subsequent to consummation of the transaction, MaxWorldwide has achieved EBITDA-positive results, for two out of three consecutive quarters. EBITDA, as defined in the merger agreement, is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding certain non-recurring items. During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, MaxWorldwide did not achieve EBITDA-positive results. MaxWorldwide’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were not publicly available as of the date of this filing.

On May 6, 2002, DoubleClick sold its @plan research product line to NetRatings, Inc., a provider of technology-driven Internet audience information solutions for media and commerce, in exchange for $12.0 million in cash and 505,739 shares of NetRatings common stock valued at approximately $6.1 million. DoubleClick sold these shares in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003.

DoubleClick TechSolutions revenue is derived primarily from the sales of our ad management products, consisting of the DART for Publishers Service, the DART Enterprise ad serving software product, the DART for Advertisers Service, our suite of email products based on DoubleClick’s DARTmail Service and DoubleClick Ensemble, our campaign management software product. TechSolutions cost of revenue includes costs associated with the delivery of advertisements and emails, including Internet access costs, depreciation of the ad and email delivery systems, the amortization of purchased technology, facility- and personnel-related costs incurred to operate and support our ad management email and campaign management software products.

TechSolutions revenue decreased 17.6% to $41.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $50.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The reduction in TechSolutions revenue reflected in large part the decline in overall online advertising spending. The decline in advertising spending has also intensified pricing competition. These two trends have had a pronounced effect on our TechSolutions business.

On a product basis, the decrease in TechSolutions revenue was primarily attributable to declines in our ad management products, offset by revenue growth in our Ensemble product offering. Ad management revenue decreased 23.7% to $31.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $40.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. As a result of the trends noted above, the effective price for our ad management products decreased approximately 5% while volume dropped approximately 20%. DARTmail revenues were $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. DARTmail revenues and volumes were flat while the effective price for these products declined slightly as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2002

DoubleClick TechSolutions gross margin was 61.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 68.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to the decline in revenues and an increase in the amortization of purchased technology due to the acquisition of Protagona, offset by a reduction in Internet access costs. The decline in Internet access costs was due to the renegotiation of many of our contracts with our Internet service providers.

As a result of the our new product initiatives and anticipated volume increases due to seasonality, offset slightly by continued weakness in online advertising spending among our customers as well as pricing competition, we anticipate slight increases in both the absolute dollar amount of TechSolutions revenues and gross profits throughout the remainder of 2003 as compared to the first quarter of 2003. We believe that our TechSolutions business is tied to the relative health of the economy. Significant changes within the economy may materially impact these results.

DoubleClick Data revenue has historically been derived primarily from its Abacus division, which provides products and services such as prospecting, housefile modeling and list optimization to direct marketers and merchants in the Abacus member alliances. Following the acquisition of @plan.inc in February 2001, we created a separate research division within DoubleClick Data designed to offer market research analysis tools that provide advertisers, brand marketers and e-businesses with analyses of online advertising campaigns, consumer behavior and purchasing patterns. Research revenue was derived primarily from the sale of annual subscriptions to its market research systems. DoubleClick Data cost of revenue includes expenses associated with maintaining and updating the Abacus and Research databases, the technical infrastructure to produce our products and services, facility and personnel related expenses to operate and support our production equipment, the amortization of purchased intangible assets, and subscriptions to third party providers of lifestyle and demographic data that is used to supplement our transactions based database.

On May 6, 2002, DoubleClick sold its @plan research product line to NetRatings, Inc., a provider of technology-driven Internet audience information solutions for media and commerce, in exchange for $12.0 million in cash and 505,739 shares of NetRatings common stock, valued at approximately $6.1 million. Revenue and gross profits recognized by the @plan research product line were approximately $2.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2002.

On June 26, 2002, DoubleClick acquired the remaining 50% of the Abacus Direct Europe B.V. joint venture that it did not previously own from VNU Marketing Information Europe & Asia B.V., an affiliate of Claritas (UK) Limited. The joint venture was formed in November 1998 and provides database-marketing services to the direct marketing catalog industry, primarily in the United Kingdom. The results of operations for Abacus Direct Europe have been included in DoubleClick’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. Revenues and gross profits recognized for Abacus Direct Europe were approximately $1.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Revenues for Abacus Direct Europe were primarily related to prospecting services provided to Abacus Alliance members in the United Kingdom.

DoubleClick Data revenue increased 1.7% to $18.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $18.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Gross margin decreased to 68.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from 69.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2002.

Overall, DoubleClick Data revenue represents an increase in revenues generated from the Abacus US business of $1.1 million and revenues generated from Abacus Direct Europe of $1.5 million, offset by the impact of the sale of the @plan research product line in May 2002. The growth in revenues from the Abacus US business related primarily to increases in prospecting and housefile modeling services provided to Abacus Alliance and Business-to-Business Alliance members as direct marketers began to focus on client acquisitions.

The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to the increase in costs associated with the acquisition of the remaining 50% of Abacus Direct Europe that DoubleClick did not previously own. The costs

We anticipate revenues and gross profits of DoubleClick Data to increase in 2003 in comparison to the year ago periods as a result of our acquisition of Abacus Direct Europe and continued growth in our Abacus Alliance and Business-to-Business Alliance businesses.

DoubleClick Media revenue was derived primarily from the sale and delivery of advertising impressions through third-party Web sites comprising the DoubleClick Media network. DoubleClick Media cost of revenue consisted primarily of service fees paid to Web publishers for impressions delivered on our network, and the costs of ad delivery and technology support provided by DoubleClick TechSolutions.

During 2002, through a series of transactions, DoubleClick divested the DoubleClick Media business. Revenue for DoubleClick Media was $16.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. On January 28, 2002, DoubleClick completed the sale of the European Media business to AdLINK. On July 10, 2002, DoubleClick completed the sale of the North American Media business to L90, which was renamed MaxWorldwide. On December 26, 2002, DoubleClick sold 45,049 shares of common stock in DoubleClick Japan and reduced its ownership interest from 38.2% to 15.6%. As a result of this transaction, DoubleClick will account for its remaining 31,271 shares in DoubleClick Japan under the equity method of accounting and will no longer consolidate its results of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, revenues derived by the European, North American and DoubleClick Japan Media business were $1.1 million, $11.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

DoubleClick Media’s gross margin was 28.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Gross profits recognized by the European, North American and DoubleClick Japan Media businesses were approximately $0.4 million, $3.6 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, sales commissions, general marketing costs, advertising, bad debt expense and other operating expenses associated with the sales and marketing departments. Sales and marketing expenses were $19.7 million, or 32.7% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and $29.8 million, or 35.6% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The $10.1 million decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily attributable to reductions in personnel-related costs of $5.2 million, as well as reductions in rent and utilities of $1.0 million and bad debt expense of $2.0 million. These decreases are commensurate with the decline in our revenues, headcount reductions associated with our restructuring activities, and other cost savings initiatives. We expect the absolute dollar amount of sales and marketing expenses to increase slightly, but to remain flat as a percentage of revenues for the remainder of 2003 due to anticipated higher revenues as compared to the first quarter of 2003.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, professional services, and other operating expenses associated with our executive, finance, human resources, legal, facilities, and administrative departments. General and administrative expenses were $8.9 million or 14.8% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and $12.0 million or 14.4% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The $3.1 million decrease in general and administrative expense was primarily the result of reductions in personnel-related costs of $1.4 million, rent and utilities of $0.6 million and depreciation expense of $0.5 million. Personnel-related costs declined as the result of headcount reductions associated with our restructuring activities. The reduction in rent and utilities and depreciation expense was also the result of headcount reductions as well as office closures and consolidations. We expect the absolute

dollar amount of general and administrative expenses to remain flat but to decrease as a percentage of revenues for the remainder of 2003 due to anticipated higher revenues as compared to the first quarter of 2003.

Product development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, consulting fees and other operating expenses associated with the product development departments. The product development departments perform research and development, enhance and maintain existing products, and provide quality assurance. Product development expenses were $8.0 million, or 13.4% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and $10.9 million, or 13.0% of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The $2.9 million decrease in product development expenses were primarily the result of reductions in personnel-related costs of $1.4 million, rent and utilities of $0.5 million and depreciation and related hardware maintenance of $0.7 million. Personnel-related costs declined as the result of headcount reductions associated with our restructuring activities. The reduction in rent and utilities and depreciation expense was a result of headcount reductions as well as office closures and consolidations. Although we will continue to concentrate on the efficient allocation of our resources, we believe that on-going investment in product development is critical to the attainment of our strategic objectives. We expect the absolute dollar amount of product development expenses to remain flat but to decrease as a percentage of revenues for the remainder of 2003 due to anticipated higher revenues as compared to the first quarter of 2003.

Amortization of intangible assets consists primarily of the amortization of customer lists and patents. Amortization expense was $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of intangible assets becoming fully amortized and impairment charges recorded during 2002.

In March 2002, management took certain actions to realign our sales organization. This involved the involuntary termination of approximately 60 employees, primarily from our TechSolutions and Media operations. As a consequence, DoubleClick recorded a $1.4 million charge to operations during the three months ended March 31, 2002, primarily related to payments for severance. We recognized no such charges during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Of the remaining $104.2 million in cash outlays relating to our restructuring activities, we estimate that we will pay approximately $49.3 million in the next twelve months, and approximately $54.9 million thereafter. We anticipate that these outlays will be funded from available sources of liquidity. However, there can be no assurance that such cost reductions can be sustained or that estimated costs of such actions will not change.

DoubleClick continues to review its operational performance and may incur additional restructuring charges in 2003, principally related to changes in estimates and assumptions surrounding excess real estate.

DoubleClick’s operating loss was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in its operating loss of $5.1 million is primarily attributable to the decrease in our sales and marketing expenses of $10.2 million, a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $3.2 million, a decrease in product development costs of $2.9 million, a decrease in intangible amortization of $1.0 million and the decrease in restructuring charges of $1.4 million. This was offset by a decrease in gross profits of approximately $13.6 million. DoubleClick continues to manage its operations with a focus on productivity and manage its headcount accordingly, but due to the general economic and industry trends it may incur future losses from operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2003, DoubleClick recognized equity losses of $1.3 million relating to its 15.6% interest in DoubleClick Japan and 19.8% investment in MaxWorldwide. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, DoubleClick recognized equity income of $0.1 million relating to its 50% interest in Abacus Direct Europe. Since the June 26, 2002 acquisition of the remaining 50% interest of Abacus Direct Europe that DoubleClick did not previously own, the results from operations of Abacus Direct Europe have been consolidated into DoubleClick’s operations.

DoubleClick’s loss on sale of business was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The amount represents a loss incurred on the sale of our European Media operations in January 2002. We recognized no such losses during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Interest and other, net was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Interest and other, net included $5.0 million of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2003, partially offset by $2.1 million in interest expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, Interest and other, net included $7.5 million of interest income, partially offset by $3.0 million in interest expense. The decrease in interest income was attributable to the decrease in average investment yields due to declines in interest rates. The decrease in interest expense is directly associated with the repurchase of Convertible Subordinated Notes during 2002. Interest and other, net in future periods may fluctuate in correlation with the average cash, investment and debt balances we maintain and as a result of changes in the market rates of our investments and any future debt repurchases.

The provision for income taxes recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2003 of $0.3 million consists principally of income taxes of $0.4 million on the earnings of some of DoubleClick’s foreign subsidiaries and $0.1 million of federal alternative minimum tax, reduced by a benefit of approximately $0.2 million of state and local tax refunds received during the first quarter. The provision for income taxes recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2002 of $2.6 million consists principally of income taxes of $2.0 million on the earnings of certain of DoubleClick’s foreign subsidiaries and gain on the sale of DoubleClick’s European Media business, and state and local taxes of $0.6 million. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, does not reflect tax benefits attributable to DoubleClick’s net operating loss and other tax carryforwards due to limitations and uncertainty surrounding DoubleClick’s prospective realization of such benefit.

Minority interest in results of consolidated subsidiaries was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This amount consists wholly of results from our consolidated subsidiary, DoubleClick Japan, of which DoubleClick maintained a 38.2% ownership interest. On December 26, 2002, DoubleClick sold 45,049 shares of common stock in DoubleClick Japan, reducing its ownership interest to 15.6%. DoubleClick will account for its remaining 31,271 shares in DoubleClick Japan under the equity method of accounting.

Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private placements of equity securities, and public offerings of our common stock and Convertible Subordinated Notes.

Operating activities generated $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2003 resulted primarily from our net income, adjusted for non-cash items, and decreases in accrued

expenses and other liabilities, offset by a decrease in prepaid and other assets and an increase in deferred revenue. Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 resulted from our net loss, excluding non-cash items, and decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable. Cash flow from operating activities may be impacted in the second quarter of 2003 due to restructuring payments associated with a lease termination agreement and may be impacted in future quarters based on the timing and amount of any additional restructuring payments.

Investing activities provided $35.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $22.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002. Cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2003 resulted primarily from the maturities of our investments in marketable securities, which was partially offset by the purchases of our investments in marketable securities and purchases of equipment. Cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 resulted principally from the maturities of our investments in marketable securities, which was partially offset by the purchases of our investments in marketable securities, purchases of equipment as well as net cash outlays for the acquisition of businesses and intangible assets. Capital expenditures are expected to increase in 2003 due to the replacement of obsolete equipment and the move of our data center operations from New York to Thornton, Colorado.

Financing activities used $0.9 million and $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002, respectively. Cash used by financing activities in both periods resulted primarily from payments under capital lease obligations offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options. Cash flow from financing activities may be impacted in future periods based on the potential for additional repurchases of our convertible bonds and common stock.

As of March 31, 2003, we had $163.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, $552.8 million in investments in marketable securities consisting of government and corporate debt securities and $29.0 million in restricted cash. As of March 31, 2003, our principal commitments consisted of $154.8 million principal amount our Convertible Subordinated Notes and our obligations under operating and capital leases.

Although we have no material commitments for capital expenditures, we continue to anticipate that our capital expenditures, lease commitments, and lease termination fees will be a material use of our cash resources consistent with the levels of our operations, infrastructure, personnel, and excess real estate space.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

DoubleClick maintains a 15% interest in AdLINK Internet Media AG. This interest was acquired in January 2002 as a result of the sale of DoubleClick’s European Media business. DoubleClick recognized revenue of approximately $0.7 during the three months ended March 31, 2003 relating to services provided to AdLINK. Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2002 was not material.

In addition, DoubleClick holds a 19.8% interest in MaxWorldwide, Inc. This interest was acquired in July 2002 as a result of the sale of DoubleClick’s North American Media business. DoubleClick recognized revenue of approximately $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2003 relating to services provided to MaxWorldwide.

Additionally, DoubleClick maintains a minority interest in DoubleClick Japan. On December 26, 2002, DoubleClick sold 45,049 shares of common stock in DoubleClick Japan and reduced its ownership interest from 38.2% to 15.6%. As a result of this transaction, DoubleClick will account for its remaining 31,271 shares in DoubleClick Japan under the equity method of accounting. DoubleClick will also retain one seat on DoubleClick Japan’s board of directors. DoubleClick Japan will continue to sell DoubleClick’s suite of DART technology products as part of a long-term technology reseller agreement. DoubleClick recognized revenue through services provided to DoubleClick Japan of approximately $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and marketable securities in a variety of government and corporate obligations and money market funds. As of March 31, 2003, our investments in marketable securities had a weighted average time to maturity of 402 days.

The following table presents the amounts of our financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk by expected maturity and average interest rates as of March 31, 2003.

As of March 31, 2003, restricted cash was $29.0 million and the average interest rate associated with this cash was 1.79%. Restricted cash consists of office lease security deposits and funds to cover our automated clearinghouse payment function.

We did not hold derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2003 and have not held these instruments in the past.

We transact business in various foreign countries and are thus subject to exposure from adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. This exposure is primarily related to revenue and operating expenses denominated in European and Asian currencies, as well as cash balances held in currencies other than the functional currency of DoubleClick and its subsidiaries. The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on operations was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002, respectively.

To date we have not used financial instruments to hedge operating activities denominated in foreign currencies. We assess the need to utilize financial instruments to hedge currency exposures on an ongoing basis. As of March 31, 2003, we had $35.5 million in cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies.

Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to, differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially and adversely affected by changes in these or other factors.

We hold investments in equity instruments of public companies received as a result of certain business transactions, which are DoubleClick Japan, AdLINK Internet Media AG and MaxWorldwide, Inc. Such investments, which are in the Internet industry, are subject to significant fluctuations in fair market value due

to the volatility of the stock market. On March 12, 2003, MaxWorldwide agreed to sell its MaxOnline division to Focus Interactive, Inc. for approximately $5.0 million in cash plus additional amounts contingent upon the satisfaction of specified conditions. In addition, in MaxWorldwide’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, MaxWorldwide reported that if the sale of its MaxOnline division is consummated, MaxWorldwide currently intends to adopt a plan of liquidation and dissolution pursuant to which it would liquidate and dissolve the company. The sale is subject to MaxWorldwide shareholder approval and other closing conditions and may impact DoubleClick’s share of MaxWorldwide’s results in future periods. The following represents the cost basis and fair market value of these investments, which is included in as “Investment in affiliates” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Some of DoubleClick’s investments have suffered a decrease in value as a result of recent market volatility. As a consequence, we wrote-down these investments to their estimated fair value in 2002. We will continue to evaluate our investments in marketable securities for impairment due to declines in market value considered to be other than temporary. That evaluation includes, in addition to persistent, declining stock prices, general economic and company-specific assessments. In the event of a determination that a further decline in market value is other than temporary, a charge to earnings will be recorded for all or a portion of the unrealized loss, and a new cost basis in the investment will be established.

The following important factors, among others, could cause our actual operating results to differ materially from those indicated or suggested by forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q or presented elsewhere by management from time to time.

We have a limited operating history and our future financial results may fluctuate, which may cause our stock price to decline.

We have a limited operating history. An investor in our common stock must consider the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving industries, including the marketing technology and data businesses. Our risks include:


	•	ability to achieve anticipated revenue growth rates;

	•	ability to manage our operations;

	•	competition;

	•	attracting, retaining and motivating qualified personnel;

	•	maintaining our current, and developing, new relationships with direct marketers, Web publishers, advertisers and advertising agencies;

	•	ability to anticipate and adapt to the changing industry conditions; and

	•	ability to develop and introduce new products and services and continue to develop, upgrade and integrate technology.

We also depend on the use of the Internet for advertising and as a communications medium, the demand for advertising services in general, and on general economic and industry conditions. We cannot assure you that our business strategy will be successful or that we will successfully address these risks. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our revenues may decline or may not grow in accordance with our business model and may fall short of expectations of market analysts and investors, which could negatively affect the price of our stock.

We have a history of losses and anticipate continued losses at times in the future.

We have incurred net losses each year since inception, including net losses of $117.9 million, $265.8 million and $156.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. We earned net income of approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and as of March 31, 2003 our accumulated deficit was $665.5 million. We have not achieved profitability on an annual basis and expect to incur operating losses at times in the future. We expect to continue to incur significant operating and capital expenditures. We also have lease obligations for facilities that currently constitute excess or idle facilities. Periodically, we evaluate the expenses likely to be incurred for these facilities, and where appropriate, have taken restructuring charges with respect to these expenses. We cannot assure you that there will not be additional restructuring charges recognized with respect to our excess or idle facilities. As a result of these factors, we will need to generate significant revenue to achieve and maintain profitability. We cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we cannot assure you that we can sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If revenue does not meet our expectations, or if operating expenses exceed what we anticipate or cannot be reduced accordingly, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

We derive a significant portion of our revenue from advertising services. A continued decrease in expenditures by direct marketers and advertisers or a continued downturn in the economy could cause our revenues to decline significantly in any given period.

We derive, and expect to continue to derive for the foreseeable future, a large portion of our revenue from products and services we provide to direct marketers, Web publishers, advertisers and advertising agencies. Expenditures by direct marketers and advertisers tend to be cyclical, reflecting overall economic conditions as well as budgeting and buying patterns. The overall market for advertising, including online advertising, has been characterized in the last couple of years by increasing softness of demand, lower prices for advertisements, the reduction or cancellation of advertising contracts, an increased risk of uncollectible receivables from customers and the reduction of marketing and advertising budgets, especially for online advertising. As a result of these reductions, advertising spending across traditional media, as well as the Internet, has decreased. We cannot assure you that further reductions will not occur.

The revenue outlook for DoubleClick TechSolutions is adversely affected by an environment where the supply of advertising inventory exceeds advertisers’ demand. Under these circumstances, Web publishers tend to remove ad space from their Web sites in an effort to correct the supply-demand imbalance; other Web publishers may cut back on their Web presence or go out of business. Faced with smaller budgets, advertisers and advertising agencies purchase less advertising inventory and tend not to invest as much in online advertising. Consequently, the number of ad impressions delivered by DoubleClick TechSolutions may decline or fail to grow or the price that we can charge for our services may decline, which in either case would adversely affect our revenues. A decline in the economic prospects of direct marketers or the economy in general would also adversely impact the revenue outlook for our email business.

DoubleClick Data, which provides products and services to direct marketers, may face similar pressures. Some direct marketers may respond to economic downturns by reducing the number of catalogs mailed, thereby possibly reducing the demand for DoubleClick Data’s services. If direct marketing activities fail to grow or decline our revenues could be adversely affected.

We cannot assure you that further reductions in marketing spending will not occur. We also cannot assure you that if economic conditions improve, marketing budgets and advertising spending will increase, or not decrease, from current levels. A continued decline in the economic prospects of marketers or the economy in general could alter current or prospective marketers’ spending priorities or increase the time it takes to close a sale with a customer. As a result, our revenues from marketing and advertising services may decline significantly in any given period.

We do not often maintain long-term agreements with our customers and may be unable to retain customers, attract new customers or replace departing customers with customers that can provide comparable revenues.

Many of our contracts with our customers are short-term. We cannot assure you that our customers will continue to use our products and services or that we will be able to replace in a timely or effective manner departing customers with new customers that generate comparable revenues. Further, we cannot assure you that our customers will continue to generate consistent amounts of revenues over time. Our failure to develop and sustain long-term relationships with our customers would materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

Many of our customers continue to experience business conditions that could adversely affect our business.

Some of our customers have experienced and may continue to experience difficulty raising capital and supporting their current operations and implementing their business plans, or may be anticipating such difficulties and, therefore, may elect to scale back the resources they devote to marketing in general and our offerings in particular. These customers may not be able to discharge their payment and other obligations to us. The non-payment or late payment of amounts due to us from our customers could negatively impact our financial condition. If the current business environment for our customers does not improve, our business,

results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, failure of our customers to comply with federal, state or local laws or our policies could damage our reputation and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Industry shifts, continuing expansion of our products and services and other changes may strain our managerial, operational, financial and information system resources.

In recent years, we have had to respond to significant changes in our industry. As a result, we have experienced industry shifts, continuing expansion of product and service offerings and other changes that have increased the complexity of our business and placed considerable demands on our managerial, operational and financial resources. We continue to increase the scope of our product and service offerings both domestically and internationally and to deploy our resources in accordance with changing business conditions and opportunities. To continue to successfully implement our business plan in our changing industry requires effective planning and management processes. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures and will need to continue to train and manage our workforce. We cannot assure you that management will be effective in attracting and retaining qualified personnel, integrating acquired businesses or otherwise responding to new business conditions. We also cannot assure you that our information systems, procedures or policies will be adequate to support our operations or that our management will be able to achieve the execution necessary to offer our products and services and implement our business plan successfully. Our inability to effectively respond to these challenges could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to generate profits from many of our products and services.

A significant part of our business model involves generating revenue by providing marketing technology and data products and services to direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers. The long term profit potential for our business model has not yet been proven, and we have not yet achieved full-year profitability. The profitability of our business model is subject to external and internal factors. Any single factor or combination of factors could limit the profit potential, long term and short term, of our business model.

Like other businesses in the marketing and advertising sectors, our revenue outlook is sensitive to downturns in the economy, including declines in advertising and marketing budgets. The profit potential of our business model is also subject to the acceptance of our products and services by direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers. Intensive marketing and sales efforts may be necessary to educate prospective customers regarding the uses and benefits of, and to generate demand for, our products and services. Enterprises may be reluctant or slow to adopt a new approach that may replace existing techniques, or may feel that our offerings fall short of their needs. If these outcomes occur, it would have an adverse effect on the profit potential of our business model.

Internal factors also influence the profit potential of our business model. In order to be profitable, our revenue must exceed the expense incurred by us to run our technology infrastructure, research and development, sales and marketing and all other operations. Our failure to achieve these results would adversely affect the profit potential of our business model.

Misappropriation of confidential information could cause us to lose customers.

We currently retain highly confidential information of our customers in secure database servers. Although we observe security measures throughout our operations, we cannot assure you that we will be able to prevent unauthorized individuals from gaining access to these database servers. Any unauthorized access to our servers, or abuse by our employees, could result in the theft of confidential customer information. If confidential customer information is compromised, we could lose customers or become subject to litigation and our reputation could be harmed, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Direct marketing, online advertising and related products and services are competitive markets and we may not be able to compete successfully.

The market for marketing technology and data products and services is very competitive. We expect this competition to continue because there are low barriers to entry for some of our businesses. Also, industry consolidation may lead to stronger, better capitalized entities against which we must compete. We expect that we will encounter additional competition from new sources as we expand our product and service offerings.

We believe that our ability to compete depends on many factors both within and beyond our control, including the following:


	•	the features, performance, price and reliability of products and services offered either by us or our competitors;

	•	the launch timing and market success of products and services developed either by us or our competitors;

	•	our ability to adapt and scale our products and services, and to develop and introduce new products and services that respond to market needs;

	•	our ability to adapt to evolving technology and industry standards;

	•	our customer service and support efforts;

	•	our sales and marketing efforts; and

	•	the relative impact of general economic and industry conditions on either us or our competitors.

Our divisions face competition from a variety of sources. DoubleClick TechSolutions competes with providers of software and service bureau solutions for the delivery of Web ads and email for direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers as well as with inhouse solutions. We also compete with providers of email delivery and inhouse solutions, including providers of email delivery software and related services.

DoubleClick Data competes with data aggregation companies and providers of information products and marketing research services to the direct marketing industry. We also compete indirectly with others, such as providers of customer relationship management services, companies engaged in providing analytic services and other companies that facilitate marketing automation.

Many of our existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we have. These factors could allow them to compete more effectively than we can, including devoting greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products and services, engaging in more extensive research and development, undertaking more far-reaching marketing campaigns, adopting more aggressive pricing policies and making more attractive offers to existing and potential employees, strategic partners, direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers. We cannot assure you that our competitors will not develop products or services that are equal or superior to our products and services or that achieve greater acceptance than our products and services. In addition, current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their products or services to address the needs of our prospective direct marketer, Web publisher, advertising and ad agency customers. As a result, it is possible that new competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross profits and loss of market share. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully or that competitive pressures will not materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our quarterly operating results are subject to significant fluctuations and you should not rely on them as an indication of future operating performance.

Our revenue and results of operations may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:


	•	direct marketer, Web publisher and advertiser demand for our products and services;

	•	Internet user traffic levels;

	•	number and size of ad units per page on our customers’ Web sites;

	•	downward pricing pressures from current and potential customers for our products and services;

	•	the introduction of new products or services by us or our competitors;

	•	variations in the levels of capital, operating expenditures and other costs relating to our operations;

	•	the size and timing of significant pre-tax charges, including for goodwill impairment, the write-down of assets and restructuring charges, such as costs for severance and idle facilities;

	•	costs related to any acquisitions or dispositions of technologies or businesses;

	•	general seasonal and cyclical fluctuations; and

	•	general economic and industry conditions.

We may not be able to adjust spending quickly enough to offset any unexpected revenue shortfall. Our expenses include upgrading and enhancing our ad management and email delivery technology, expanding our product and service offerings, marketing and supporting our products and services and supporting our sales and marketing operations. If we have a shortfall in revenue in relation to our expenses, or if our expenses exceed revenue, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. These results would likely affect the market price of our common stock in a manner that may be unrelated to our long-term operating performance.

Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Advertisers generally place fewer advertisements during the first and third calendar quarters of each year, which directly affects the DoubleClick TechSolutions business. Further, Internet user traffic typically drops during the summer months, which reduces the amount of online advertising. The direct marketing industry generally uses our data services more in the third calendar quarter based on plans for holiday season mailings, which directly affects the DoubleClick Data business. The email technology business may experience seasonal patterns similar to the traditional direct marketing industry, which typically generates lower revenues earlier in the calendar year and higher revenues during the calendar year-end months.

As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations may not be indicators of future performance. It is possible that in some future periods our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this event, the price of our common stock may fall.

We may not be able to continue to grow through acquisitions of or investments in other companies.

Our business has expanded rapidly in part as a result of acquisitions or investments in other companies, including the acquisitions of Abacus Direct, NetGravity, FloNetwork, MessageMedia and Protagona. We may continue to acquire or make investments in other complementary businesses, products, services or technologies as a means to grow our business. From time to time we have had discussions with other companies regarding our acquiring, or investing in, their businesses, products, services or technologies. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify other suitable acquisition or investment candidates. Even if we do identify suitable candidates, we cannot assure you that we will be able to make other acquisitions or investments on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Even if we agree to buy a company, technology or other assets, we

We are also minority investors in a few technology companies, including AdLINK, MaxWorldwide and DoubleClick Japan. Our investments have decreased in value as a result of market volatility, and periodically, we have recorded charges to earnings for all or a portion of the unrealized loss due to declines in market value considered to be other than temporary. The market value of these investments may decline in future periods due to the continued volatility in the stock market in general or the market prices of securities of technology companies in particular and we may be required to record further charges to earnings as a result. Further, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell these securities at or above our cost basis. We have recorded goodwill in connection with a number of our acquired businesses, including MessageMedia, FloNetwork and Flashbase. As a result of significantly lower than-expected revenues generated to date and considerably reduced estimates of future performance, we have in the past recognized impairment charges with respect to the goodwill of some acquired businesses. If market conditions require, we may in the future record additional impairments in the value of our acquired businesses.

We may not manage the integration of acquired companies successfully or achieve desired results.

As a part of our business strategy, we have in the past, and could in the future enter into a number of business combinations and acquisitions. Acquisitions are accompanied by a number of risks, including:


	•	the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired companies;

	•	the potential disruption of the ongoing businesses and distraction of our management and the management of acquired companies;

	•	the difficulty of incorporating acquired technology and rights into our products and services;

	•	unanticipated expenses related to technology and other integration;

	•	difficulties in disposing of the excess or idle facilities of an acquired company or business;

	•	difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;

	•	the impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new management personnel;

	•	the inability to develop new products and services that combine our knowledge and resources and our acquired businesses or the failure for a demand to develop for the combined companies’ new products and services;

	•	potential failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the combined company’s products to new and existing customers; and

	•	potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses.

We may not succeed in addressing these risks or other problems encountered in connection with these business combinations and acquisitions. If so, these risks and problems could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of operations. Furthermore, we may incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for any future acquisitions. The issuance of equity securities could be dilutive to our existing stockholders.

Disruption of our services due to unanticipated problems or failures could harm our business.

Our DART ad management and DARTmail technologies reside in our data centers in multiple locations in the United States and abroad. Continuing and uninterrupted performance of our technology is critical to our success. Customers may become dissatisfied by any system failure that interrupts our ability to provide our services to them, including failures affecting our ability to deliver advertisements without significant delay to the viewer or our ability to deliver a customer’s online marketing campaign. Sustained or repeated system failures would reduce the attractiveness of our products and services to our customers and could result in

contract terminations or fee rebates or credits, thereby reducing revenue. Slower response time or system failures may also result from straining the capacity of our technology due to an increase in the volume of advertising delivered through our servers. To the extent that we do not effectively address any capacity constraints or system failures, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our operations are dependent on our ability to protect our computer systems against damage from natural disasters, fire, power loss, water damage, telecommunications failures, vandalism and other malicious acts, and similar unexpected adverse events. In addition, interruptions in our products or services could result from the failure of our telecommunications providers to provide the necessary data communications capacity in the time frame we require. Unanticipated problems affecting our systems have from time to time in the past caused, and in the future could cause, interruptions in the delivery of our products and services. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by any damage or failure that interrupts, delays or destroys our operations. Some of our data centers are located at facilities provided by a third party and if these parties are unable to adequately protect our data centers, our business, results of operations and financial conditions could be materially and adversely affected. We are in the process of moving our primary data center from New York to Thornton, Colorado. Any unanticipated problems that may occur during or as a result of this move could adversely affect our systems and harm our business.

We depend on third-party Internet and telecommunications providers, over whom we have no control, to operate our services. Interruptions in our services caused by one of these providers could have an adverse effect on revenue and securing alternate sources of these services could significantly increase expenses.

We depend heavily on several third-party providers of Internet and related telecommunication services, including hosting and co-location facilities, in delivering our products and services. These companies may not continue to provide services to us without disruptions in service, at the current cost or at all. The costs associated with any transition to a new service provider could be substantial, requiring us to reengineer our computer systems and telecommunications infrastructure to accommodate a new service provider. This process could be both expensive and time consuming. In addition, failure of our Internet and related telecommunications providers to provide the data communications capacity in the time frame we require could cause interruptions in the services we provide. Unanticipated problems affecting our computer and telecommunications systems in the future could cause interruptions in the delivery of our services, causing a loss of revenue and potential loss of customers.

We are dependent on key personnel and on key employee retention and recruiting for our future success.

Our future success depends to a significant extent on the continued service of our key technical, sales and senior management personnel. We do not have employment agreements with most of these executives and do not maintain key person life insurance on any of these executives. The loss of the services of one or more of our key employees could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our product development and other business objectives and could harm our business. Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees for key positions. There is competition for qualified employees in our industry. We may not be able to retain our key employees or attract, assimilate and retain other highly qualified employees in the future.

We have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications for some positions.

If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property, we could lose our intellectual property rights.

Our success and ability to effectively compete are substantially dependent on the protection of our proprietary technologies, patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights and trade secrets, which we protect through a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret, unfair competition and contract law. We cannot assure you that any of our intellectual property rights will be viable or of value in the future.

In September 1999, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued to us a patent that covers our DART ad management technology. We are currently seeking reissue of this patent, which would limit the scope of the existing patent, and this reissue proceeding is pending before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. We cannot assure you that this patent will be reissued. We own other patents, and have patent applications pending for some of our other technology. We cannot assure you that the patent applications that we have filed in the United States and internationally will be issued or that patents issued or acquired by us now or in the future will be valid and enforceable or provide us with any meaningful protection.

We also have rights in the trademarks and service marks that we use to market our products and services. These marks include DOUBLECLICK®, DART®, DARTMAIL®, ABACUS™, DOUBLECLICK ENSEMBLE™, SITEADVANCE™ and CHANNELVIEW™. We have applied to register our trademarks and service marks in the United States and internationally. We cannot assure you that any of these current or future applications will be approved. Even if these marks are registered, these marks may be invalidated or successfully challenged by others. If our trademarks or service marks are not registered because third parties own these marks, our use of these marks will be restricted unless we are able to enter into arrangements with these parties, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

We also enter into confidentiality, assignments of proprietary rights and license agreements, as appropriate, with our employees, consultants and business and technology partners, and generally control access to and distribution of our technologies, documentation and other proprietary information. Despite these efforts, we cannot be certain that the steps we take to prevent unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights are sufficient to prevent misappropriation of our products and services or technologies, particularly in foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect our intellectual property rights as fully as in the United States. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will be able to adequately enforce the contractual arrangements that we have entered into to protect our proprietary technologies and intellectual property. If we lose our intellectual property rights, this could have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we face a claim of intellectual property infringement, we may be liable for damages and be required to make changes to our technology or business.

Infringement claims may be asserted against us, which could adversely affect our reputation and the value of our intellectual property rights. From time to time we have been, and we expect to continue to be, subject to claims or notices in the ordinary course of our business, including assertions of alleged infringement of the patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties by us or our customers. We do not conduct exhaustive patent searches to determine whether our technology infringes patents held by others. In addition, the protection of proprietary rights in Internet related industries is inherently uncertain due to the rapidly evolving technological environment. As such, there may be numerous patent applications pending, many of which are confidential during a large part of their prosecution, that provide for technologies similar to ours.

Third party infringement claims and any resultant litigation, should it occur, could subject us to significant liability for damages, restrict us from using our technology or operating our business generally, or require changes to be made to our technology. Even if we prevail, litigation is time consuming and expensive to defend and would result in the diversion of management’s time and attention. Claims from third parties may also result in limitations on our ability to use the intellectual property subject to these claims unless we are able to enter into royalty, licensing or other similar agreements with the third parties asserting these claims.

Such agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to enter into these types of agreements, we would be required to either cease using the subject product or change the technology underlying the applicable product. If a successful claim of infringement is brought against us and we fail to develop non-infringing technology as an alternative or to license the infringed or similar technology on a timely basis, it could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may be materially adversely affected by lawsuits related to privacy, data protection and our business practices.

We have been a defendant in several lawsuits alleging, among other things, that we unlawfully obtain and use Internet users’ personal information and that our use of cookies violates various laws. We have also been the subject of an inquiry involving the attorneys general of several states relating to our practices in the collection, maintenance and use of information about, and our disclosure of these information practices to, Internet users. Although these particular situations were resolved in 2002, we may in the future be subject to additional claims or regulatory inquiries with respect to our business practices. Class action litigation and regulatory inquiries of these types are often expensive and time consuming and their outcome may be uncertain.

Any additional claims or regulatory inquiries, whether successful or not, could require us to devote significant amounts of monetary or human resources to defend ourselves and could harm our reputation. We may need to spend significant amounts on our legal defense, senior management may be required to divert their attention from other portions of our business, new product launches may be deferred or canceled as a result of any proceedings, and we may be required to make changes to our present and planned products or services, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If, as a result of any proceedings, a judgment is rendered or a decree is entered against us, it may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and harm our reputation.

Our business depends in part on successful adaptation of our business to international markets, in which we have limited experience. Failure to successfully manage the risks of international operations and sales and marketing efforts would harm our results of operations and financial condition.

We have operations in a number of countries and have limited experience in developing localized versions of our products and services and in marketing, selling and distributing our products and services internationally. We sell our technology products and services through our directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries primarily located in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Ireland, the United Kingdom and Hong Kong. In Japan, we sell our technology products and services through DoubleClick Japan, of which we own approximately 15%. We also operate the DoubleClick Data business in the United Kingdom.


	•	the high cost of maintaining international operations;

	•	uncertain demand for our products and services;

	•	the impact of recessions in economies outside the United States;

	•	changes in regulatory requirements;

	•	more restrictive data protection regulation;

	•	reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;

	•	potentially adverse tax consequences;

	•	difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations;

	•	cultural differences in the conduct of business;

	•	political and economic instability;

	•	fluctuations in currency exchange rates; and

	•	seasonal fluctuations in Internet usage and marketing and advertising spending.

These risks may have a material and adverse impact on the business, results of operations and financial condition of our operations in a particular country and could result in a decision by us to reduce or discontinue

operations in that country. The combined impact of these risks in each country may also materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition as a whole.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law may make it difficult for a third party to acquire us.

Some of the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and Delaware law could, together or separately:


	•	discourage potential acquisition proposals;

	•	delay or prevent a change in control; or

	•	impede the ability of our stockholders to change the composition of our board of directors in any one year.

As a result, it could be more difficult for third parties to acquire us, even if doing so might be beneficial to our stockholders. Difficulty in acquiring us could, in turn, limit the price that investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock.

Our stock price may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations, and this volatility could result in us becoming subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could result in a diversion of resources.

The market price of our common stock has fluctuated in the past and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Investors may be unable to resell their shares of our common stock at or above their purchase price.

Additionally, in the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. Many companies in our industry have been subject to this type of litigation in the past. We may also become involved in this type of litigation. Litigation is often expensive and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Future sales of our common stock may affect the market price of our common stock.

As of March 31, 2003, we had 136,676,221 shares of common stock outstanding, excluding 15,727,550 shares subject to options outstanding as of such date under our stock option plans that are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.01 to $1,134.80 per share. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales of common stock or the availability of shares of common stock for future sale will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, including shares issued upon the exercise of stock options, or the perception that such sales could occur, may materially reduce prevailing market prices for our common stock.

Direct marketers and advertisers may be reluctant to devote a portion of their budgets to marketing technology and data products and services or online advertising.

Companies doing business on the Internet, including DoubleClick, must compete with traditional advertising media, including television, radio, cable and print, for a share of advertisers’ total marketing budgets. Potential customers may be reluctant to devote a significant portion of their marketing budget to online advertising or marketing technology and data products and services if they perceive the Internet or direct marketing to be a limited or ineffective marketing medium. Any shift in marketing budgets away from marketing technology and data products or services or online advertising spending could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The lack of appropriate advertising measurement standards or tools may cause us to lose customers or prevent us from charging a sufficient amount for our products and services.

Because online marketing technology and data products and services remain relatively new disciplines, there are currently no generally accepted methods or tools for measuring the efficacy of online marketing and advertising as there are for advertising in television, radio, cable and print. Many traditional advertisers may be reluctant to spend sizable portions of their budget on online marketing and advertising until there exist widely accepted methods and tools that measure the efficacy of their campaigns.

We could lose customers or fail to gain customers if our products and services do not utilize the measuring methods and tools that may become generally accepted. Further, new measurement standards and tools could require us to change our business and the means used to charge our customers, which could result in a loss of customer revenues.

If the delivery of Internet advertising on the Web, or the delivery of our email messages, are limited or blocked, demand for our products and services may decline.

Our business may be adversely affected by the adoption by computer users of technologies that harm the performance of our products and services. For example, computer users may use software designed to filter or prevent the delivery of Internet advertising or Internet browsers set to block the use of cookies. We cannot assure you that the number of computer users who employ these or other similar technologies will not increase, thereby diminishing the efficacy of our products and services. In the case that one or more of these technologies becomes widely adopted by computer users, demand for our products and services would decline.

We also depend on our ability to deliver emails over the Internet through Internet service providers and private networks. Internet service providers are able to block messages from reaching their users and we do not have, nor are we required to have, agreements with any Internet service providers to deliver emails to their customers. As a result, we could experience periodic temporary blockages of our delivery of emails to their customers, which would limit the effectiveness of our email marketing. Some Internet service providers also use proprietary technologies to handle and deliver email. If Internet service providers materially limit or block the delivery of our emails, or if our technology fails to be compatible with these Internet service providers’ email technologies, then our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the effectiveness of email marketing may decrease as a result of increased consumer resistance to email marketing in general.

New laws or regulation in the United States and internationally, and uncertainties regarding the application of existing laws and regulations, could harm our business.

Laws applicable to Internet communications, e-commerce, Internet advertising, privacy and data protection, direct marketing and email marketing are becoming more prevalent in the United States and worldwide. For example, various U.S. state and foreign governments may attempt to regulate our ad delivery or levy sales or other taxes on our activities, and several states and foreign countries have enacted legislation regulating the sending of unsolicited emails.

In addition, many areas of the law affecting the Internet remain largely unsettled, even in areas where there has been some legislative action. It is difficult to determine whether and how existing laws such as those governing intellectual property, privacy and data protection, libel and taxation apply to the Internet, online marketing and advertising and our businesses.

The growth and development of Internet commerce has prompted calls for more stringent consumer protection laws, both in the United States and abroad. These proposals may seek to impose additional burdens on companies conducting business over the Internet. Potential limitations on the collection and use of information relating to Internet users, particularly relating to email marketing, are being considered by legislatures and regulatory agencies in the United States and internationally. We are unable to predict whether any particular proposal will pass, or the nature of the limitations that may be imposed. In addition, it is possible that changes to existing law, including both amendments to existing laws and new interpretations of

The following are examples of legislation enacted or currently being considered in the United States and internationally:


	•	Legislation has been enacted in some countries and proposed in the United States to regulate the use of cookie technology. Our technology uses cookies for ad targeting and reporting, among other things. The changes required for us to comply with newly imposed requirements may be commercially unfeasible, or simply unattainable. We may, therefore, be required to discontinue the relevant business practice.

	•	Data protection officials in some European countries have asserted that Internet protocol addresses and cookies are intrinsically personally identifiable information thereby subject to privacy standards that may be more stringent than those in the U.S. We cannot assure you that our current policies and procedures would meet these more restrictive standards. The cost of such compliance could be material and we may not be able to comply with the applicable national regulations in a timely or cost-effective manner.

	•	Legislation has been enacted by some foreign governments and several U.S. states to prohibit or restrict the sending of ‘unsolicited commercial email’ and similar U.S. federal legislation has been proposed several times in recent years. Although our email delivery is consent-based, it is possible that existing or future legislation in some jurisdictions may require us to change our current practices or may subject us to increased liabilities.

	•	The impending expiration of a provision of the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, or FCRA, may lead to a wave of new restrictions on the collection, use and disclosure of information about consumers. The FCRA currently prohibits U.S. states and localities from enacting new laws affecting certain uses and disclosures of consumer information. This provision is presently set to expire on January 1, 2004. If the provision is not extended, state and local governments may be permitted to enact new restrictions that could increase the costs of marketing and offering credit to consumers. Such restrictions could depress advertising spending, the overall demand for our products and services and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, in particular the DoubleClick Data business.

Any legislation enacted or regulation issued could dampen the growth and acceptance of our industry in general and of our offerings in particular. Our business could be negatively impacted by new laws or regulations applicable to direct marketing or the Internet, the application of existing laws and regulations to direct marketing or the Internet or the application of new laws and regulations to our business. In response to evolving legal requirements, we may be compelled to change or discontinue an existing offering, business or business model, or to cancel a proposed offering or new business. Any of these circumstances could have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. These changes could also require us to incur significant expenses, and we may not find ourselves able to replace the revenue lost as a consequence of the changes.

We are a member of the Network Advertising Initiative and the Direct Marketing Association, both industry self-regulatory organizations. We cannot assure you that these organizations or similar organizations will not adopt additional, more burdensome guidelines, compliance with which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may suffer if the Web infrastructure is unable to effectively support the growth in demand placed on us.

Our success will depend, in large part, upon the maintenance of the Web infrastructure, such as a reliable network backbone with the necessary speed, data capacity and security and timely development of enabling products, such as high speed modems, for providing reliable Web access and services and improved content. We cannot assure you that the Web infrastructure will continue to effectively support the demands placed on us as the Web continues to experience increased numbers of users, frequency of use or increased bandwidth requirements of users. Even if the necessary infrastructure or technologies are developed, we may have to

spend considerable amounts to adapt our products and services accordingly. Furthermore, the Web has experienced a variety of outages and other delays due to damage to portions of its infrastructure. These outages and delays could impact the direct marketers, Web publishers and advertisers using our products and services.

DoubleClick Data is dependent on the success of the direct marketing industry for our future success.

The future success of DoubleClick Data is dependent in large part on the continued demand for our services from the direct marketing industry, including the catalog industry, as well as the continued willingness of catalog operators to contribute their data to us. Most of our Abacus customers are large consumer merchandise catalog operators in the United States, with a growing number of operators in the United Kingdom. A significant downturn in the direct marketing industry generally, including the catalog industry, or withdrawal by a substantial number of catalog operators from the Abacus Alliance, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If email marketing or electronic commerce, including the purchase of merchandise and the exchange of information via the Internet or other media, increases significantly in the future, companies that now rely on catalogs or other direct marketing avenues to market their products may reallocate resources toward these new direct marketing channels and away from catalog-related marketing or other direct marketing avenues, which could adversely affect demand for some DoubleClick Data services. In addition, the effectiveness of direct mail as a marketing tool may decrease as a result of consumer saturation and increased consumer resistance to direct mail in general.

The direct marketing activities of our Abacus Alliance customers are adversely affected by postal rate increases, especially increases that are imposed without sufficient advance notice to allow adjustments to be made to marketing budgets. Higher postal rates may result in fewer mailings of direct marketing materials, with a corresponding decline in the need for some of the direct marketing services offered by us. Increased postal rates can also lead to pressure from our customers to reduce our prices for our services in order to offset any postal rate increase. Higher paper prices may also cause catalog companies to conduct fewer or smaller mailings which could cause a corresponding decline in the need for our products and services. Our customers may aggressively seek price reductions for our products and services to offset any increased materials cost.

a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and are operating in an effective manner.

b) Changes in internal controls. There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation.

In April 2002, a consolidated amended class action complaint alleging violations of the federal securities laws was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York naming us and certain of our officers and directors and certain underwriters of our follow on offerings as defendants. We and some of our officers and directors are named in the suit pursuant to Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on the basis of the alleged failure to disclose the underwriters’ alleged compensation and manipulative practices. This action seeks, among other things, unspecified damages and costs, including attorneys’ fees. In October 2002, the action was dismissed against our officers and directors without prejudice. However, claims against us remain. In July 2002, we and the other issuers in the consolidated cases filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim, which was denied as to us in February 2003. We believe that the claims asserted by these lawsuits are without merit, and intend to defend these actions vigorously. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation. An unfavorable outcome in litigation could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
