•eBay acquired KnownOrigin, a non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace that provides artists a place to create unique, authentic, digital collectibles, in the form of NFTs. An early pioneer in the NFT space, KnownOrigin’s innovative technology and talented team, together with eBay's reach and reputation, will empower a new wave of NFT creators, sellers and buyers.
•eBay announced it is taking steps to close GittiGidiyor, the company’s marketplace business in Turkey. The company regularly reviews its business operations globally and made this strategic decision based on the ongoing dynamics in the market. While the closure of GittiGidiyor will not have a material impact on eBay's revenue and operating income going forward, there are approximately 3 million active buyers included in the company's Q2 active buyer count from the Turkish marketplace.

•eBay's first party advertising products, primarily driven by Promoted Listings, delivered $232 million of revenue in the second quarter, up 2% on an as-reported basis and up 6% on an FX-Neutral basis.
•The company's total advertising offerings generated approximately $275 million in revenue in the second quarter, representing roughly 1.5% of GMV.

Tech-Led Reimagination of the Platform

•The company opened the eBay vault, a state-of-the-art facility and digital marketplace for collectors.

•Through a strategic partnership with Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), eBay expanded its Authenticity Guarantee program for trading cards to include graded trading cards sold on eBay for $500+.
•eBay also expanded its Authenticity Guarantee program for sneakers and handbags to Australia and the U.K. In Australia, the company also hosted eBay’s Museum of Authentics which showcased a collection of rare sneakers, and partnered with Afterpay’s Australian Fashion Week to engage influencers and highlight the marketplace’s authentication services for luxury handbags.
•In April, eBay Motors held the first ever New York Auto Parts Show, designed to demonstrate how car enthusiasts can build, fix or maintain their dream car. In the face of unprecedented supply chain challenges, the show debuted a line of “Re-Concept cars” assembled in partnership with some of the industry’s top builders and biggest stars, demonstrating the best ‘new’ car on the road can start with one that already exists.
•In April, the company expanded its eBay Refurbished program across multiple condition grades for tablets, smartwatches, laptops, desktops and more. Hundreds of thousands of items will be added to the program this year, enabling eBay to meet consumer needs at every price point, without sacrificing quality and trust. The expansion included the launch of eBay Refurbished in Canada, giving buyers access to like-new products ranging from moderate wear to pristine condition, all backed by a one- or two-year warranty.

For the first time, the company also released its methodology for calculating the environmental and financial benefits of keeping products in circulation, preventing them from immediate disposal to landfill or incineration.
•eBay released its sixth annual Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) Report outlining how the company has remained committed, open and transparent, acknowledging both the wins and the areas in need of improvement.
•eBay, in partnership with GLIDE, hosted its 21st and grand finale Power of One Charity Auction Lunch with Warren Buffett. The auction made history with a record-breaking bid of over $19 million, bringing the total funds raised to more than $53 million over almost two decades to support GLIDE's transformative programs and services that lift people out of poverty, hunger and homelessness.

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, free cash flow and figures in this press release presented on an "FX-Neutral basis." 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, except for figures in this press release presented on an “FX-Neutral basis,” can be found in the tables included in this press release. For figures in this press release reported “on an FX-Neutral basis,” the company calculates the year-over-year impact of foreign currency movements using prior period foreign currency rates applied to current year transactional currency amounts. The company defines organic FX-Neutral revenue growth as reported revenue growth, excluding incremental revenue from acquisitions or dispositions for the twelve-month period following such acquisitions or dispositions and foreign exchange rate effects.
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 including changes in fair value, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of any related foreign exchange derivative instruments, 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 vesting of restricted stock by employees and the timing and size of stock option exercises, 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. These amounts include changes in fair value and the related change in foreign currency exchange rates of equity securities with readily determinable fair values, globally.
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.
Income tax effects and adjustments. We use a non-GAAP tax rate for evaluating our operating results. Based on our current long-term projections, we are using a non-GAAP tax rate of 16.5%. This non-GAAP tax rate could change for various reasons including significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or fundamental tax law changes in major jurisdictions in which we operate.
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.
