Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously announced, on February 13, 2020, eBay Inc. ("eBay") completed the sale of its StubHub business (the “Business”) to PUG LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated November 24, 2019, by and among eBay, eBay International AG, Purchaser and, solely for the purposes set forth therein, Pugnacious Endeavors, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for a purchase price of $4.05 billion in cash, subject to certain adjustments specified therein, including for indebtedness, cash, working capital and transaction expenses of the Business at the closing of the transaction (the “Transaction”). Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, StubHub's historical financial results for periods prior to the sale will be reflected in eBay’s consolidated financial statements, retrospectively, as discontinued operations.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Exhibit 99.1 are derived from eBay’s consolidated financial statements for the eight consecutive fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2019, adjusted to reflect the Transaction, which we believe will assist investors in evaluating eBay’s financial performance. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been further adjusted to reflect certain financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which we also believe will assist investors in evaluating eBay’s financial performance.

The following unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with (i) the audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in eBay’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and (ii) the unaudited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in eBay’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, March 31, 2019, September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, and March 31, 2018.

The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, and shall not be deemed subject to the requirements of amended Item 10 of Regulation S-K or incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, regardless of any general incorporation.
