     NORWALK, Conn., August 5, 2008 . . . Priceline.com Incorporated® (Nasdaq: PCLN) today reported its financial results for the 2^nd quarter 2008.  Gross travel bookings for the 2^nd quarter, which refers to the total dollar value, inclusive of all taxes and fees, of all travel services purchased by consumers, rose 70.9% year-over-year to $2.1 billion.

Priceline.com had GAAP revenues in the 2^nd quarter of $514.0 million, a 44.4% increase over a year ago.  The Company’s international operations contributed revenues in the 2^nd quarter of $164.5 million, an 82.0% increase versus a year ago. GAAP gross profit for the 2^nd quarter was $253.7 million, a 61.4% increase from the prior year.  Priceline.com had GAAP net income for the 2^nd quarter of $54.1 million or $1.08 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $34.6 million or $0.79 per diluted share in the 2^nd quarter 2007.

Priceline.com reported pro forma revenues in the 2^nd quarter of $514.0 million, a 45.4% increase over a year ago.  Pro forma gross profit for the 2^nd quarter was $253.7million, an increase of 63.8% over the same period in the prior year.  Pro forma EBITDA for the 2^nd quarter 2008 amounted to $101.3 million, an increase of 75.1% over a year ago.  Pro forma net income in the 2^nd quarter was $78.5 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, an increase of 39.6% over a year ago.  First Call analyst consensus for the 2^nd quarter 2008 was $1.41 per diluted share. The section below entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” provides a definition and information about the use of pro forma financial measures in this press release and the attached financial and statistical supplement reconciles pro forma financial information with priceline.com’s financial results under GAAP.

“Priceline.com turned in an excellent quarter with consolidated gross travel bookings growth of 71% despite macroeconomic uncertainties and softening travel market trends,” said Jeffery H. Boyd, priceline.com’s President and Chief Executive Officer.  “Our international business, which includes Booking.com and Agoda.com, had $1.2 billion in 2^nd quarter gross bookings, up 80.1% from last year.  The business continues to benefit from growth in participating hotels, which at over 52,000 are up approximately 50% year-over-year, geographic expansion, effective marketing and favorable foreign exchange rates, which have driven growth in bookings and earnings.”

Mr. Boyd continued, “Priceline’s domestic business also posted a strong quarter, with gross travel bookings up 59.2% over last year.  Our discounted domestic merchant services grew 36% as consumers sought out travel deals and airlines and hotel companies used our Name Your Own Price® and packages services to round out demand while protecting needed yields.  We also continued to promote our value brand by chopping fees on published hotel sales, following up on last year’s elimination of booking fees on retail air tickets, and providing the first Sunshine Guarantee, which protected customers if their vacation was rained out.”

Looking forward, Mr. Boyd said, “Economic uncertainty and high fuel prices are affecting the broad travel market and significant airline capacity reductions in the fall will also have a negative impact.  Through the first half of the year, we believe that the positive trends impacting our domestic and international businesses have overshadowed these negative influences.  We believe these trends position us for attractive top line and earnings growth for the balance of the year and beyond.”

Forward Guidance

For full year 2008, priceline said that it now expects to generate approximately $7.55 billion to $7.90 billion in gross travel bookings.  Priceline expects pro forma EBITDA of $360 million to $380 million and to earn approximately $5.50 to $5.85 of pro forma net income per diluted share for full year 2008.

Priceline.com said it was targeting the following for 3^rd quarter 2008:

·Year-over-year increase in gross travel bookings of approximately 44 - 54%.

·Year-over-year increase in international gross travel bookings of approximately 58 - 68%.

·Year-over-year increase in revenue of approximately 30 - 35%.

·Year-over-year increase in pro forma gross profit of approximately 52 - 57%.

·Pro forma EBITDA of approximately $133 million to $143 million.

·Pro forma net income of between $2.00 and $2.15 per diluted share.

Pro forma guidance for the 3^rd quarter 2008:

·excludes non-cash amortization expense of acquisition-related intangibles,

·excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense,

·excludes payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation,

·excludes non-cash income tax expense and reflects the impact on income taxes of the pro forma adjustments,

·includes the additional impact on minority interest expense of the pro forma adjustments described above,

·includes the anti-dilutive impact of the “Conversion Spread Hedges” (see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) on outstanding diluted common shares outstanding, and

·includes the dilutive impact of additional shares of unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units because pro forma net income has been adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation.

In addition, pro forma EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and includes the impact of foreign currency transactions and other expenses.

When aggregated, the foregoing adjustments are expected to increase pro forma EBITDA over GAAP operating income by approximately $20 million and $80 million for 3^rd  quarter 2008 and full year 2008, respectively.

In addition, the foregoing adjustments are expected to increase pro forma net income over GAAP net income by approximately $24 million for the 3^rd quarter 2008 and by approximately $90 million for full year 2008.  On a per share basis, the Company estimates GAAP net income of approximately $1.50 to $1.65 per diluted share for the 3^rd  quarter 2008 and approximately $3.75 to $4.10 per diluted share for full year 2008.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Pro forma EBITDA represents GAAP operating income excluding depreciation and amortization expense, plus foreign currency transactions and other expense and the applicable pro forma adjustments described below.

Pro forma revenue, pro forma gross profit, pro forma EBITDA, pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share are “non-GAAP financial measures,” as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.  Priceline.com believes that pro forma revenue, pro forma gross profit, pro forma EBITDA, pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share that exclude certain non-cash or non-recurring income or expense items are useful for analysts and investors toevaluate priceline.com’s future on-going performance because they enable a more meaningfulcomparison of priceline.com’s projected cash earnings and performance with its historical results from prior periods. These pro forma metrics, in particular pro forma EBITDA and pro forma net income, are not intended to represent funds available for priceline.com’s discretionary use and are not intended to represent or to be used as a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flows from operations data as measured under GAAP.  The items excluded from these pro forma metrics, but included in the calculation of their closest GAAP equivalent, are significant components of consolidated statements of income and must be considered in performing a comprehensive assessment of overall financial performance. Pro forma financial information is adjusted for the following items:

·Cash expenses incurred in 1^st quarter and 2^nd quarter 2007 associated with the settlement of the 2000 securities litigation is excluded because of the non-recurring nature of the settlement.

(more)

4

·Cash benefit recorded in 1^st and 2^nd quarter 2007 associated with the refund by the Internal Revenue Service of excise taxes paid on merchant airline tickets is excluded because of its non-recurring nature.

·Amortization expense of acquisition-related intangibles is excluded because it does not impact cash earnings.

·Stock-based compensation expense and the non-cash expense associated with the payment of preferred stock dividends are excluded because they do not impact cash earnings and are reflected in earnings per share through increased share count.

·Payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation is excluded because the expense is driven primarily by stock option exercise and share award vesting activity and the market price of priceline.com’s common stock and often shows volatility unrelated to operating results.

·Income tax expense is adjusted for the tax impact of certain of the pro forma adjustments described above and to exclude tax expense or benefit recorded where no actual tax payments are owed because of available net operating loss carry forwards.

·Minority interest is adjusted for the impact of certain of the pro forma adjustments described above.

·Finally, for calculating pro forma net income per share:

·net income is adjusted for the impact of the pro forma adjustments described above

·fully diluted share count is adjusted to include the anti-dilutive impact of “Conversion Spread Hedges” related to priceline.com’s convertible securities that increase the effective conversion price of the 0.50% convertible notes due 2011 and 0.75% convertible notes due 2013 from their stated $40.38 conversion price to an effective conversion price of $50.47 per share.  Under GAAP, the anti-dilutive impact of the Conversion Spread Hedges is not reflected on the outstanding diluted share count until the end of the hedge when shares are delivered.

·All common stock warrants and unvested shares of restricted common stock, restricted stock units and performance share units are included in the calculation of pro forma net income per share because pro forma net income has been adjusted to exclude our preferred stock dividend and stock-based compensation expense.

The presentation of this financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  The attached financial and statistical supplement reconciles pro forma financial information with priceline.com’s financial results under GAAP.

Estimated Impact of Share Price Movements on Weighted Average GAAP and Pro Forma Diluted Shares Outstanding

In millions

(Unaudited)

The following table is intended to demonstrate the estimated potential impact of share price movements on the number of equivalent shares included in the fully diluted share count used to calculate diluted earnings per share.  Actual results are likely to differ due to the impact of option exercises, equity repurchases, issuances and forfeitures of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units and any conversions of our convertible bonds.  The table below is for illustrative purposes only; the Company is unable to predict its future stock price and the Company’s stock could trade below or above the per share prices in the table below.

(1)	Reflects the anti-dilutive impact of the “Conversion Spread Hedges” and the dilutive impact of additional warrants and shares of unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units because pro forma net income has been adjusted to exclude preferred stock dividend and stock-based compensation.
(2)	Estimated weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding is estimated as follows:
	3Q08: Uses actual daily share prices from July 1, 2008 through August 4, 2008, and the closing share price assumption from August 5, 2008 through September 30, 2008.
	2008: Uses actual daily share prices from January 1, 2008 through August 4, 2008, and the closing share price assumption from August 5, 2008 through December 31, 2008.
