Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This presenation contains adjusted EBITDA, net merchandise sales and certain ratios that use net merchandise sales. GSI Commerce uses adjusted EBITDA as a means to evaluate its performance period to period without taking into account certain expenses, particularly stock-based compensation expense, which may fluctuate materially due to fluctuations in the price of GSI Commerce’s common stock both on a quarterly and annual basis, and does not consistently reflect GSI Commerce’s results from its core business activities. GSI Commerce also uses net merchandise sales as a metric for operating its business. Variable costs such as fulfillment and customer service labor expense, order processing costs such as credit card and bank processing fees and business management costs such as marketing department staffing levels are related to the amount of sales made through GSI Commerce’s platform, whether or not GSI Commerce records the revenue from such sales. GSI Commerce believes that investors will have a more thorough understanding of its historical expenses and expense trends if they have visibility to both GAAP net revenue as well as the non-GAAP financial measure net merchandise sales and the percentages that such expenses bear to net revenues and net merchandise sales. These financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measures as required under Securities and Exchange Commission rules.

Situation Analysis

Too large to ignore!

Online sales will equal 6.6% of total retail sales in 2004

Approx. 75% of online retail sales in 2004 will come from multi-channel retailers

However . . .

Multi-channel retailers derive vast majority of revenue offline

Significant opportunity!

Enable companies to maximize online business in a growing e-commerce marketplace

Online retailing not core competency!
