Exhibit 99.1
eBay Inc. Reports Second Quarter Results

Total Payment Volume of $66 billion and Gross Merchandise Volume of $20 billion
Revenue growth accelerates at both eBay and PayPal
Revenue of $4.4 billion and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.76 per diluted share, excluding eBay Enterprise
eBay announces additional $1 billion stock repurchase authorization
eBay and PayPal will separate on July 17th 


San Jose, California, July 16, 2015 - Global commerce platform and payments leader eBay Inc. (Nasdaq: EBAY) today reported that revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, accelerated to $4.4 billion, with strength across both PayPal and eBay. This excludes $0.3 billion of eBay Enterprise revenue that is now presented as discontinued operations. GAAP income from continuing operations was $682 million or $0.56 per diluted share, and Non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $931 million or $0.76 per diluted share, driven by an acceleration in revenue growth at both businesses.

eBay Inc.’s commerce and payments ecosystems continued to increase the role they play in global commerce, with gross merchandise volume (GMV) growth on an FX neutral basis accelerating 1 point over the prior period to 6% and net total payment volume growth accelerating 3 points to 28%. On a year over year basis, foreign currency movements continued to have a negative effect, impacting the revenue growth rate of the eBay Marketplaces business by 8 points and the revenue growth rate of PayPal’s business by 3 points, with benefits from currency hedging partially offsetting the impact at PayPal. Additionally, weaker local currencies in some markets led to reduced demand for goods in export-oriented markets like the United States, impacting the growth of our cross border trade for eBay Marketplaces and PayPal.

"We are very pleased with our overall Q2 performance. PayPal and eBay both delivered strong Q2 results and have strong momentum. Dan, Devin and their respective teams are executing well and are prepared to create the next great chapter for PayPal and eBay," said eBay Inc. President and CEO John Donahoe.

PayPal net total payment volume (TPV) grew 20% in the second quarter to $66 billion, with Merchant Services volume up 27% and on-eBay volume down 1%. On an FX-neutral basis, PayPal TPV grew 28%, with Merchant Services volume up 36% and on-eBay volume up 6%. Payment volume through eBay Marketplaces was $14.5 billion, representing 22% of total TPV. Revenue grew to $2.3 billion. PayPal grew new active accounts 11% to 169 million and processed 1.1 billion transactions. We continued to deepen customer engagement with our customer base: in the second quarter transactions per active account increased to 24 per year, compared to 21 times a year ago, and monetization per active account increased to $50 per year. The strong, steady growth of PayPal’s customer base coupled with rising engagement continues to prove the brand’s growing popularity and value proposition globally. PayPal also agreed to acquire Xoom Corporation for approximately $890 million net of cash. We anticipate that acquiring Xoom will help accelerate PayPal’s entry into the $600 billion global remittance market, and that adding additional services to our technology platform will allow PayPal to amplify its consumer flywheel, creating a more powerful network effect.

"I am pleased with PayPal’s strong second quarter results. We continue to gain share globally in an incredibly dynamic market and I’m especially proud of our deepening engagement with our customers. As an independent company we will continue to lead the transformation of the payments industry by giving people better ways to move and manage their money," said PayPal President Dan Schulman. "I’d like to thank Devin and his team at eBay, who will continue to be key partners for PayPal in the future."

eBay Marketplaces GMV declined 2%, with the continuing strength of the dollar significantly impacting results; however, it grew 6% on an FX-neutral basis, a one point acceleration versus the prior quarter. In the U.S., GMV grew 2%; while International GMV was down 5%, it increased 8% on an FX-neutral basis. Total revenue for the quarter was $2.1 billion, down 3%, although growing 5% on an FX-neutral basis, a two point acceleration versus first quarter. eBay Marketplaces active buyers grew 6%. eBay had a strong second quarter and continues to execute against its three key strategic pillars: building a more robust commerce platform, driving a more vibrant marketplace and creating exceptional product and brand experiences.

Devin Wenig, President of eBay commented, "I am encouraged by the state of our business and the progress against our strategy. As eBay celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, we are making rapid changes to position the company for the future. My goal, and that of the entire leadership team, is for eBay to be the best global marketplace and a great enduring Internet





business. As we move into our next chapter, we also look forward to continuing our strong partnership with Dan and the PayPal team."

During the quarter, the Board of Directors authorized the Company’s management to sell eBay Enterprise. Accordingly the results of eBay Enterprise are presented as discontinued operations, appearing net of tax in a single line in our statement of income. Based on the expected sales proceeds, the Company recorded an impairment of eBay Enterprise goodwill in the amount of approximately $786 million.

Expected 2015 Financial Results for PayPal and eBay on a Stand-Alone Basis
PayPal Holdings, Inc.
Full year 2015 — PayPal Holdings, Inc. expects net revenues to grow 15% - 18% on an FX-neutral basis with GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.89 - $0.95 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.23 - $1.27. Guidance does not include the pending acquisition of Xoom Corporation.
eBay Inc.
Full year 2015 — eBay expects net revenues to grow 3% - 5% on an FX-neutral basis with GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.40 - $1.45 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.72 - $1.77.
In July 2015, eBay Inc.'s board of directors authorized an additional $1 billion stock repurchase program. Together with the approximately $2 billion remaining under eBay’s prior stock repurchase program authorized in January 2014, eBay's total repurchase authorization as of July 16, 2015, is approximately $3 billion. In addition to offsetting dilution from its equity compensation programs, eBay expects, subject to market conditions and other factors, to make opportunistic repurchases of its common stock to reduce outstanding share count. Any share repurchases under eBay’s stock repurchase programs may be made through open market transactions, block trades, privately negotiated transactions (including accelerated share repurchase transactions) or other means.

eBay Inc.
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, significant gains or losses from the disposal/acquisition of a business, certain effects of the planned separation of our eBay and PayPal business, certain gains and losses on investments, 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 is 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, 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 impact of the accretion of a note receivable associated with the disposal of certain businesses. 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.
Separation. These are significant expenses that are related to the planned separation of our eBay and PayPal businesses into separate publicly traded companies. These consist primarily of third-party consulting fees, legal fees, employee retention payments and other expenses incurred to complete the separation.
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, and repurchase stock. 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.
