excluding ad revenues from Alibaba were $516.8 million, an increase of 33% compared to

business.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures:
non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income attributable
to Weibo's shareholders, non-GAAP diluted net income per share
attributable to Weibo's shareholders and adjusted EBITDA. These
non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to,
not as a substitute for, measures of the Company's financial
performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The Company's non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based
compensation, amortization of intangible assets resulting from
business acquisitions, non-cash compensation cost to
non-controlling interest shareholders, net results of impairment
on, gain/loss on sale of and fair value change of investments,
non-GAAP to GAAP reconciling items on the share of equity method
investments, non-GAAP to GAAP reconciling items for the income/loss
attributable to non-controlling interests, provision for income tax
primarily related to the amortization of intangible assets
resulting from business acquisitions and fair value change of
investments, and amortization of convertible debt and unsecured
senior notes issuance cost. Adjusted EBITDA excludes interest
income, net, income tax expenses (benefit), and depreciation
expenses.
The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures
in their financial and operating decision-making, because
management believes these measures reflect the Company's ongoing
operating performance in a manner that allows more meaningful
period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that these
non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors
and others in the following ways: (i) in comparing the Company's
current financial results with the Company's past financial results
in a consistent manner, and (ii) in understanding and evaluating
the Company's current operating performance and future prospects in
the same manner as management does, if they so choose. The Company
also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful
information to both management and investors by excluding certain
expenses, gains (losses) and other items (i) that are not expected
to result in future cash payments or (ii) that are non-recurring in
nature or may not be indicative of the Company's core operating
results and business outlook.
Use of non-GAAP financial measures has limitations. The
Company's non-GAAP financial measures do not include all income and
expense items that affect the Company's operations. They may not be
comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how the
Company defines its non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of
the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable
GAAP measures are set forth in the section below titled "Unaudited
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Results."
About Weibo
Weibo is a leading social media for people to create, share

content. User relationships on Weibo may be asymmetric;
any user can follow any other user and add comments to a feed while

display advertisement and promoted marketing
offerings. Designed with a "mobile first" philosophy, Weibo
displays content in a simple information feed format and offers
native advertisement that conform to the information feed on our
platform. To support the mobile format, we have developed and

engine, which enables our customers to perform people marketing and
target audiences based on user demographics, social relationships,
interests and behaviors, to achieve greater relevance, engagement
and marketing effectiveness.

(1) To exclude
the provision for income tax primarily related to amortization of
intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions and fair
value change of
|
investments. The Company considered the tax implication arising
from the reconciliation items and part of these items recorded in
entities in tax free
|
|
jurisdictions were without relevant tax implications. For
impairment on investments, valuation allowances were made for those
differences as the Company
|
does not
expect they can be realized in the foreseeable future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(2) To adjust
the number of shares for dilution resulted from convertible debt
which were anti-dilutive under GAAP measures.

* Net income
attributable to Weibo's shareholders is adjusted for interest
expense of convertible debt for calculating diluted EPS.
