 Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share Trends

Note: Non-GAAP Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income (loss) attributable to Yahoo! Inc. excluding certain gains, losses, expenses, and their related tax effects that
we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing results. All per share amounts are based on fully diluted share counts.

Beginning in Q1’10, our presentation of Non-GAAP Net income no longer excludes stock-based compensation expense and its related tax effects. For comparison purposes, prior period amounts
have been revised to conform to the current presentation.
