•	Revenue of $2.6 billion


•	GAAP and Non-GAAP EPS per diluted share of $0.37 and $0.67, respectively, on a continuing operations basis


•	GAAP and Non-GAAP operating margin of 20.1% and 26.6%, respectively


•	Returned $1.1 billion to shareholders in Q3, comprising $1.0 billion of share repurchases and $115 million paid in cash dividends


•	Concluded operating review, resulting in three-year plan to improve margins and reinvest in customer initiatives

San Jose, California, October 23, 2019 - eBay Inc. (Nasdaq: EBAY), a global commerce leader, delivered revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 of $2.6 billion, remaining flat, on an as-reported basis and increasing 2% on a foreign exchange (FX) neutral basis. Gross merchandise volume (GMV) of $21.7 billion, was down 4% on an as-reported basis and down 2% on a FX-Neutral basis.

During the quarter, eBay delivered GAAP net income from continuing operations of $310 million, or $0.37 per diluted share and non-GAAP net income from continuing operations of $563 million, or $0.67 per diluted share. The company generated $1.0 billion of operating cash flow and $913 million of free cash flow from continuing operations while also repurchasing approximately $1.0 billion of its common stock and paying $115 million in cash dividends in the quarter. In addition, $400 million of floating rate notes and $1.15 billion of 2.200% fixed rate notes matured and were paid during the quarter.

“We performed in line with expectations in Q3 while improving the Marketplace experience, creating better customer outcomes, and maintaining momentum in advertising and payments,” said Scott Schenkel, interim Chief Executive Officer of eBay Inc. “We also made progress on our portfolio review and completed a thorough operating review that has resulted in a three-year plan to drive margin improvement while enabling reinvestment in critical customer initiatives.”

In the third quarter, eBay grew active buyers by 4% across its platforms, for a total of 183 million global active buyers. Underlying total eBay performance, the Marketplace platforms delivered $2.1 billion of revenue and $20.5 billion of GMV. Marketplace revenue was down 1% on an as-reported basis and was up 1% on a FX-Neutral basis, and GMV was down 5% on an as-reported basis and down 2% on a FX-Neutral basis. StubHub platforms drove revenue of $306 million, up 5% on both an as-reported and FX-Neutral basis, and GMV of $1.2 billion, flat on both an as-reported and FX-Neutral basis. Classifieds platforms delivered revenue of $265 million, up 4% on an as-reported basis and up 8% on a FX-Neutral basis.

Based on these results and increased confidence in the year, eBay raised non-GAAP EPS guidance and narrowed GAAP EPS guidance for the full year.

Momentum of Growth Initiatives

Since launching the managed payments offering approximately one year ago, eBay has processed over $1.1 billion in payments for more than 20,000 sellers, with over $500 million of those payments processed in Q3. In September, the service reached 9.4% of volume in the U.S. and successfully launched in a second market, Germany. First-party advertising also continued its momentum. More than one million sellers now leverage promoted listings, promoting over 300 million listings on the marketplace, which has resulted in revenue of $103 million, up 119% on an as-reported basis and up over 120% on a FX-Neutral basis.

Improving the Marketplace Experience

During the quarter, eBay introduced new tools and features that enhance the customer experience. Terapeak, a suite of features that help sellers identify what to sell, when to sell, and how to price inventory, was integrated into Seller Hub in major markets. The company also introduced additional seller protections, continued to enhance the new buyer experience, announced a Managed Delivery fulfillment service in the U.S., and bolstered its grocery partnership with Coles in Australia. Additionally, Multi-User Account Access became available for sellers in the U.S., with a planned expansion to Germany in 2020.

Commitment to Responsible Business Practices

eBay continued to demonstrate its dedication to responsible business practices. During the quarter, Retail Revival launched in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and a version of the program was also brought to Plovdiv, Bulgaria, connecting local businesses to the global marketplace. Approximately 400 businesses across 12 cities globally have participated in the program, collectively selling nearly 600,000 items to buyers in 162 countries. In recognition of Retail Revival, eBay was named to Fortune’s 2019 Change the World list. eBay also announced 100% renewable energy sourcing at its two largest locations - San Jose, California, and Draper,

Utah. These sites join the company’s locations in Dreilinden, Germany; Dublin, Ireland; and Portland, Oregon for 100% renewable energy sourcing. Additionally, eBay was ranked by both the Dow Jones World and North America Sustainability Indices for responsible business practices in 2019.

Update on Operating Review and Portfolio Review

The company completed an extensive operating review resulting in a multi-year plan for operating efficiency. These efficiencies, combined with 2019 margin expansion and reinvestment, are expected to drive 3 points of additional operating margin by 2022 and create capacity to reinvest in critical customer initiatives. eBay continues to review the role and value of StubHub and Classifieds in its portfolio to determine the best path forward and anticipates sharing an update on the StubHub business before the next earnings release.

(1)	All buyers who successfully closed a transaction on our Marketplace and StubHub platforms within the previous 12-month period. Buyers may register more than once, and as a result, may have more than one account. Starting in the second quarter of 2018, year-over-year growth rate is on a pro-forma basis, which includes Giosis' Japan business active buyers in both current and prior year periods.

(2)

Total value of all successfully closed transactions between users on our Marketplace and StubHub platforms during the period regardless of whether the buyer and seller actually consummated the transaction. We believe that GMV provides a useful measure of the overall volume of closed transactions that flow through our platforms in a given period, notwithstanding the inclusion in GMV of closed transactions that are not ultimately consummated.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

To supplement the company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate, and free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a continuing operations basis.

These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate the company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in the tables included in this press release.

These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of the company's current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, the company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses, or net purchases of property and equipment, as the case may be, that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. In addition, because the company has historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, the company believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in the company's financial reporting.

For its internal budgeting process, and as discussed further below, the company's management uses financial measures that do not include stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll taxes on stock-based compensation, amortization or impairment of acquired intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, amortization of deferred tax assets associated with the realignment of its legal structure and related foreign exchange effects, significant gains or losses from the disposal/acquisition of a business, certain gains and losses on investments, gains or losses associated with a warrant agreement that the company entered into with Adyen, restructuring-related charges and the income taxes associated with the foregoing. In addition to the corresponding GAAP measures, the company's management also uses the foregoing non-GAAP measures in reviewing the financial results of the company.

The company excludes the following items from non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP effective tax rate:

Stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes. This expense consists of expenses for stock options, restricted stock and employee stock purchases. The company excludes stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP measures primarily because they are non-cash expenses that management does not believe are reflective of ongoing operating results. The related employer payroll taxes are dependent on the company's stock price and the timing and size of exercises by employees of their stock options and the vesting of their restricted stock, over which management has limited to no control, and as such management does not believe it correlates to the company's operation of the business.

Amortization or impairment of acquired intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, certain amortization of deferred tax assets and related foreign exchange effects, significant gains or losses and transaction expenses from the acquisition or disposal of a business and certain gains or losses on investments. The company incurs amortization or impairment of acquired intangible assets and goodwill in connection with acquisitions and may incur significant gains or losses from the acquisition or disposal of a business and therefore excludes these amounts from its non-GAAP measures. The company also excludes certain gains and losses on investments. The company excludes the non-cash amortization of deferred tax assets associated with the realignment of its legal structure, which is not reduced by the effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and related foreign exchange effects. The company excludes these items because management does not believe they correlate to the ongoing operating results of the company's business.

Restructuring. These charges consist of expenses for employee severance and other exit and disposal costs. The company excludes significant restructuring charges primarily because management does not believe they are reflective of ongoing operating results.

Other certain significant gains, losses, or charges that are not indicative of the company’s core operating results. These are significant gains, losses, or charges during a period that are the result of isolated events or transactions which have not occurred frequently in the past and are not expected to occur regularly or be repeated in the future. The company excludes these amounts from its results primarily because management does not believe they are indicative of its current or ongoing operating results.

Change in fair market value of warrant. These are gains or losses associated with a warrant agreement that the company entered into with Adyen, which are attributable to changes in fair value during the period.

Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. This amount is used to present stock-based compensation and the other amounts described above on an after-tax basis consistent with the presentation of non-GAAP net income.

In addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, the company also uses free cash flow. Free cash flow represents operating cash flows less purchases of property and equipment. The company considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of property, buildings, and equipment, which can then be used to, among other things, invest in the company's business, make strategic acquisitions, repurchase stock and pay dividends. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the company's cash balance for the period.
