"In the first quarter, Yahoo! continued to grow its user base and
drive deeper engagement, the core user fundamentals that lead to
favorable financial returns," said Susan Decker, chief financial
officer, Yahoo!. Yahoo! seeks to provide
online products and services essential to users' lives, and offers a
full range of tools and marketing solutions for businesses to connect
with Internet users around the world. Since a
significant portion of the GAAP revenues associated with our sponsored
search offerings is paid to our third party affiliates, we believe
investors find it more meaningful to apply multiples to revenues
excluding TAC to assess our value as this avoids "double counting"
revenues that are paid to, and being reported by, our third party
affiliates.
Management evaluates the costs of such tangible and intangible assets
through other financial measures such as capital expenditures.

Revenues excluding traffic acquisition costs ("TAC") were $821

compared to $550 million for the same period of 2004.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2005 was $720 million, a

These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in

KeyCreator combines both the latest in geometry-based design and modelling
technology, and a legacy of success in helping customers in the design of
tooling , complex machinery, fixtures, molds and dies in a multitude of product
development industries.

Operating income before depreciation and amortization for the
first quarter of 2005 was $345 million, a 64 percent increase
compared to $211 million for the same period of 2004 . In addition, we generated $90 million from the
issuance of common stock as a result of the exercise of employee stock
options. These increases were offset by $165 million used for direct
share repurchases , a net $96 million used in structured stock
repurchase transactions, and $54 million used for acquisitions . These non-GAAP measures should be considered
as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, gross
profit, income from operations, and cash flow from operating
activities calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. We provide revenues excluding TAC because we believe it is
useful to investors in valuing our Company. We consider free cash flow to be a liquidity
measure which provides useful information to management and investors
about the amount of cash generated by the business after the
acquisition of property and equipment, which can then be used for
strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the
Company's business, making strategic acquisitions, strengthening the
balance sheet and repurchasing stock.

This press release includes the following financial measures
defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange
Commission: revenues excluding traffic acquisition costs, operating
income before depreciation and amortization, and free cash flow.

Revenues excluding traffic acquisition costs or TAC is defined as
gross profit plus other cost of revenues.

Operating income before depreciation and amortization is defined as
income from operations before depreciation, amortization of intangible
assets and amortization of stock compensation expense. This
measure eliminates the effects of depreciation, amortization of
intangible assets and amortization of stock compensation expense from
period to period, which we believe is useful to management and
investors in evaluating the operating performance of the Company, as
depreciation and amortization costs are not directly attributable to
the underlying performance of the Company's business operations.

Note to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations


This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measures of
revenues excluding traffic acquisition costs, operating income before
depreciation and amortization, and free cash flow, which are
reconciled to gross profit, income from operations, and cash flow from
operating activities, respectively, which we believe are the most
comparable GAAP measures. For the quarter ended March 31, 2004, Yahoo!
reclassified previously reported Marketing Services revenues of $4
million as Fees in order to refine its alignment of revenue
sources with these classifications .

(Nasdaq:YHOO) today reported results for the first quarter ended March

Cash flow from operating activities for the first quarter of
2005 was $386 million, a 63 percent increase compared to $236
million for the same period of 2004. Actual
results may differ materially from the results predicted and reported
results should not be considered as an indication of future
performance. Further, management uses revenues excluding TAC for
evaluating the performance of our business, making operating
decisions, for budgeting purposes, and as a factor in determining
management compensation. A limitation of free cash flow
is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the
cash balance for the period.

The new version of the software , available
immediately for download by KeyCreator version 4 customers, adds several new
features and functionality designed to support collaboration and the sharing

that it is a measure which we have defined for internal and investor
purposes that may be unique to the Company and therefore it may not
enhance the comparability of our results to other companies in our
industry who have similar business arrangements but address the impact
of TAC differently.
Management compensates for this limitation by providing supplemental
information about stock compensation expense on the face of the
consolidated statements of operations.
