billion, down 11% on an as-reported basis and down 5% on an
FX-Neutral basis.
- GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $70 million, or $(0.13) per diluted share, primarily driven by
the change in fair value of our equity investments.

- Returned over $421 million to

of share repurchases and $120 million

Business Highlights
- Recently, eBay completed the acquisition of TCGplayer, a
leading technology platform for collectibles and one of the largest
online marketplaces for trading card games, for a total deal value
of up to approximately $295 million
in cash. This acquisition complements eBay's focus category
strategy and furthers the company's commitment to trading card
enthusiasts – providing eBay with strategic omnichannel
capabilities like order fulfillment and cart optimization,
maintaining its position as a desirable platform for trading card
sellers and enhancing the overall experience for all
customers.
- eBay acquired the myFitment group of companies, a leader in
delivering the tools and support to help online automotive and
powersports parts and accessories sellers thrive. myFitment's
technology and platform provides powerful, easy-to-use and
affordable solutions that will elevate the user experience within
parts and accessories, helping sellers to drive sales and avoid
costly returns.
Revenue Initiatives
- eBay's first party advertising products, primarily driven by
Promoted Listings, delivered $249
million of revenue in the third quarter, up 19% on an
as-reported basis and up 27% on an FX-Neutral basis.
- The company's total advertising offerings generated over
$290 million in revenue in the third
quarter, representing roughly 1.6% of GMV.
- During the quarter, eBay expanded Klarna availability to buyers
engaged in cross-border transactions in Germany.
- The company announced faster payment options for sellers,
enabling on-demand payouts to a debit card within 30 minutes or
less for a fee.
Tech-Led Reimagination of the Platform
- In collaboration with the Gemological Institute of America
(GIA), eBay expanded its Authenticity Guarantee program to new and
pre-owned fine jewelry sold for over $500. This marks the expansion of eBay's
authentication service to its fifth category, which currently
includes sneakers, watches, handbags and trading cards.
- eBay updated its Authenticity Guarantee service for sneakers,
recently expanding the program's eligibility to more sneakers,
offering new protections for eligible items, aligning final value
fees and partnering with FedEx to provide free shipping labels for
sellers to ship sneakers to authentication centers.
- eBay celebrated the launch of the eBay vault during MLB All
Star Weekend with the first-ever trading cards draft, called Vault
Stars. The event brought together baseball personalities,
Chase Utley and Alanna Rizzo, as they coached and encouraged
actor Miles Teller through the
creation of his ultimate card lineup to send to the eBay vault. The
exclusive event was held in downtown Los
Angeles, and garnered more than 1 billion media
impressions.
- To further the company's marketing efforts around trading
cards, eBay expanded its presence at New York Comic Con to showcase
the eBay vault and continued Live Commerce pilots highlighting
brands like Funko and Metazoo.
- The company continued to increase trust in the Motors Parts
& Accessories category, building on several quarters of
improvements to the P&A fitment experience like modernizing its
taxonomy and integrating fitment-based technologies into search,
merchandising and advertising recommendations. eBay is now able to
make fitment more pervasive throughout the end-to-end experience,
including adding highly visible trust signals throughout the buyer
journey in the U.S. and Canada,
and reducing the number of steps required to find parts. The
company also expanded adoption of My Garage, leading to more
personalized shopping on every visit.
- eBay Motors kicked off a cross-country tour to explore
America's unique car cultures. The 'Parts of America' tour is
taking eBay Motors to twelve automotive enthusiast events across
the country — from car meets and cruises to tractor pulls and rock
crawls. At each stop, eBay Motors features one-of-a-kind vehicles
that bring to life the local car culture and the passionate
builders behind these remarkable rides. To date, the tour has
attracted nearly 300,000 attendees and generated more than 500
million impressions across social media and press coverage.
- eBay partnered with MTV U.K. to revive "Pimp My Ride" — an
automotive makeover show from the 2000s — for a six-part YouTube
series. The collaboration highlights how economical and
environmentally friendly it can be to upcycle and buy pre-loved car
parts and accessories on eBay.
- The company continued to invest in simplifying the listing
process for sellers, recently completing the migration of all
desktop sellers to one unified listing experience globally, which
eliminates multiple legacy tools and enables faster
innovation.
- To further support sellers with building their brand and
increasing buyer engagement, eBay upgraded its video and photo
capabilities. Sellers can now upload videos to their storefront and
listings to showcase themselves and their merchandise in a new,
engaging way. eBay also increased the number of listing photos from
12 to 24 at no additional cost in all categories except
vehicles.
- During the quarter, eBay drove site-wide conversion
improvements as a result of technology investments, including new
AI capabilities in search and SEO improvements to drive better
growth across the platform and increase visibility on search
engines.
- In September, the company hosted eBay Open 2022 in the U.S.,
U.K. and Germany to facilitate
seller learning and connections, and to announce new tools to drive
buyers and velocity to listings. Features include the eBay vault,
3D True View, eBay Live, the expansion of Authenticity Guarantee,
increased shipping options, photos and video upgrades and payments
improvements.
Impact
- eBay announced the recipients of its third annual Up &
Running Grant program, which annually awards 50 notable U.S.
sellers with $10,000 each plus
customized mentorship, training and tools to scale and grow their
businesses.
- eBay published its Southeast Asia Small Online Business Trade
Report, detailing how small online businesses across six
Southeast Asia countries —
Indonesia, Malaysia, the
Philippines, Singapore,
Thailand and Vietnam — can reach consumers in hundreds of
export markets each year through eBay's global marketplace.
- Through Global Give, the eBay Foundation issued grants to 50
nonprofit organizations that support inclusive entrepreneurship in
communities around the world.
- eBay for Charity contributed more than $33 million globally during the quarter, down 7%
year-over-year.

Business Outlook
The guidance figures provided below and elsewhere in this
press release are forward-looking statements, reflect a number of
estimates, assumptions and other uncertainties, and are approximate
in nature because the company's future performance is difficult to
predict. Revenue guidance is provided on an FX-Neutral basis and
excludes incremental revenue from acquisitions or dispositions for
the twelve-month period following such acquisitions or
dispositions. Such guidance is based on information available on
the date of this press release, and the company assumes no
obligation to update it.
The company's future performance involves risks and
uncertainties, and the company's actual results could differ
materially from the information below and elsewhere in this press
release. Some of the factors that could affect the company's
operating results are set forth under the caption "Forward-Looking
Statements" above in this press release. More information about
factors that could affect the company's operating results is
included under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" in its most recent annual report on Form 10-K and
subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, copies of which may be

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, 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.
