Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
VeriSign provides quarterly and annual financial statements that are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Along with this information, we typically disclose and discuss certain non-GAAP financial information in our quarterly earnings releases, on investor conference calls and during investor conferences and related events. This non-GAAP financial information does not include the following types of financial measures that are included in GAAP: amortization and write-down of goodwill and intangible assets related to acquisitions, in-process research and development, stock-based compensation charges related to acquisitions, litigation settlements, restructuring and other recoveries/charges, and the net gain on the sale of investments or the impairment of investments. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial data supplements our GAAP financial by providing investors with additional information which allows them to have a clearer picture of the companys core recurring operations. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the non-GAAP information enhances the investors overall understanding of our financial performance and the comparability of the companys operating results from period to period. In the press release attached hereto to as Exhibit 99.1, we have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial information that we provide each quarter with the comparable financial information reported in accordance with GAAP for the given period.

VeriSign Reports Third Quarter 2005 Results
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA October 19, 2005 VeriSign, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRSN), the leading provider of intelligent infrastructure services for the Internet and telecommunications networks, today reported its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2005.
VeriSign reported revenue of $415 million for the third quarter of 2005, a 28 percent increase compared to the same period of 2004. On a GAAP basis, VeriSign reported net income of $45 million for the third quarter 2005 and earnings per share of $0.17 per diluted share. This compares with net income of $40 million and earnings per share of $.16 per diluted share for the same period of 2004.
On a non-GAAP basis, using a 30% effective tax rate on non-GAAP pre-tax income of $102 million, earnings per share for the third quarter was $0.27 per diluted share, as compared to non-GAAP pre-tax income of $69 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.19 for the same period in 2004. These non-GAAP results exclude the following items, which are included under GAAP: amortization of intangible assets, acquired in-process research and development, stock-based compensation charges, litigation settlements, restructuring and other reversals/charges, and the net gain or loss on the sale of investments or the impairment of investments. A table reconciling the non-GAAP to GAAP numbers reported above is appended to this release.
Our third quarter results were mixed with strong demand across our Internet and core Communications Services, offset by a shortfall in revenues from the Mobile Content business, said Stratton Sclavos, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VeriSign. Although the short-term trends have proven difficult to forecast, we continue to be excited about the long term opportunity in Mobile Content and believe that we are strongly positioned as the leading global platform for these services.
The solid performance in the Internet and core Communications businesses, coupled with discipline in managing our expenses, allowed us to overcome the reduced content revenue and achieve record operating income for the quarter, said Dana Evan, Chief Financial Officer of VeriSign. Strong operating cash flow of $126 million in Q3 helped to fund our repurchase of 9 million shares of common stock during the quarter for an aggregate value of $215 million while we still exited the period with cash balances of approximately $800 million.
Within VeriSigns Internet Services Group (ISG), the VeriSign Security Services (VSS) business announced a strategic alliance with eBay that calls for the two companies to collaborate on payment services and security initiatives for e-commerce. Under the terms of the agreement, PayPal, an eBay subsidiary, will acquire VeriSigns payment gateway business for $370 million, and the companies have signed a multi-year security technology agreement that calls for eBay to invest in the deployment of VeriSign technologies that protect online identities and transactions. The security technology agreement includes the purchase of up to one million two-factor authentication tokens. VeriSign Japan (VSJ), a majority owned subsidiary of VeriSign Inc., announced the acquisition of SiteRock as part of the continued expansion of its Managed Security Services offerings. The acquisition was completed in October for approximately $51 million in cash.
The VeriSign Naming and Directory Services (VNDS) business continued to see its active domain names under management achieve record levels as new registrations and renewal rates remained strong. As part of VeriSigns strategy to strengthen its support for real-time web services, VNDS announced two acquisitions. First, VNDS announced the acquisition of Weblogs.com and its ping server service to provide more stable and reliable communications on behalf of the Internets blogosphere. VNDS plans to use the ping service to increase the reliability and intelligence of the content distribution network of recently announced acquisition, Moreover Technologies, a wholesale aggregator of real-time content for news and business information.
The VeriSign Communications Services (VCS) business continued to strengthen its portfolio of products and customer relationships. The Communications and Commerce lines of business within VCS announced several customer trials of the VeriSign Wireless IP Connect Services that provides a single, cellular-Wi-Fi interconnection point that resolves interoperability issues across disparate networks. In the third quarter, the VCS Content business expanded the availability of Jamster! content services to Sprint and Cincinnati Bell customers in the United States.
