eBay & PayPal to Become Independent Companies in 2015 2014.10.01

San Jose, California, USA - September 30, 2014 - eBay Inc. today said its Board of Directors, following a strategic review of the company's growth strategies and structure, has approved a plan to separate the company's eBay and PayPal businesses into independent publicly traded companies in 2015, subject to customary conditions. Creating two standalone businesses best positions eBay and PayPal to capitalize on their respective growth opportunities in the rapidly changing global commerce and payments landscape, and is the best path for creating sustainable shareholder value, the company said.

San Jose, California, USA – September 30, 2014

eBay Inc. today said its Board of Directors, following a strategic review of the company’s growth strategies and structure, has approved a plan to separate the company’s eBay and PayPal businesses into independent publicly traded companies in 2015, subject to customary conditions.

Creating two standalone businesses best positions eBay and PayPal to capitalize on their respective growth opportunities in the rapidly changing global commerce and payments landscape, and is the best path for creating sustainable shareholder value, the company said.

“eBay and PayPal are two great businesses with leading global positions in commerce and payments,”
said eBay Inc. President and CEO John Donahoe.
“For more than a decade eBay and PayPal have mutually benefited from being part of one company, creating substantial shareholder value. However, a thorough strategic review with our board shows that keeping eBay and PayPal together beyond 2015 clearly becomes less advantageous to each business strategically and competitively. The industry landscape is changing, and each business faces different competitive opportunities and challenges.”

“eBay and PayPal will be sharper and stronger, and more focused and competitive as leading, standalone companies in their respective markets,”
Donahoe continued.
“As independent companies, eBay and PayPal will enjoy added flexibility to pursue new market and partnership opportunities. And we are confident following a thorough assessment of the relationships between eBay and PayPal that operating agreements can maintain synergies going forward. Our board and management team believe that putting eBay and PayPal on independent paths in 2015 is best for each business and will create additional value for our shareholders.”

As the company has previously stated, eBay’s board of directors has a practice of regularly reviewing the company’s growth strategies and structure, and assessing all alternatives.

As part of such assessments, the board regularly explores the following questions:

Will separation make eBay and PayPal more competitive?

Will separation be possible without distracting innovation and execution?

And, will separation create sustainable value for shareholders over time?

In its recently completed review, the board concluded:


• A changing competitive landscape creates enormous opportunities for eBay and PayPal; separation will create sharper strategic focus and better position each business to capitalize on those growth opportunities as independent companies.
The pace of industry change and innovation in commerce and payments requires maximum flexibility to stay competitive and drive global leadership.

• The benefits of the existing relationships between eBay and PayPal will naturally decline over time and can be optimized in arm’s length operating agreements between the two entities.
Arm’s length operating agreements can formalize the existing relationships between the two companies and capture ongoing synergies.

• This is the best path for delivering sustainable shareholder value.
eBay is a leading global commerce platform that has benefited from PayPal, and PayPal is a strong, rapidly growing global payments leader because it has been part of eBay. But beyond 2015, eBay and PayPal will each benefit more and create greater value from the strategic focus, speed, flexibility and agility that come with being independent publicly traded companies.


The future

The company expects to complete the transaction as a tax-free spin-off in the second half of 2015, subject to market, regulatory and certain other conditions.

eBay Inc. President and CEO John Donahoe and company CFO Bob Swan will be responsible for leading the separation of each business, with board oversight.

This includes determining appropriate management and capital structures for eBay and PayPal, and putting in place appropriate operating agreements.

Neither Donahoe nor Swan will have an executive management role in the new eBay and PayPal companies.

But to provide continuity, they each expect to serve on one or both of the boards of the two companies.


The “new” eBay

Devin Wenig, currently president of eBay Marketplaces, will become CEO of the new eBay company.

As CEO of eBay, Wenig will lead the eBay Marketplaces and eBay Enterprise businesses.

Revenue over the last twelve months (last four public quarters) for these two businesses grew approximately 10% year-over-year to $9.9 billion, with eBay Marketplaces accounting for about $8.7 billion.

eBay Marketplaces and eBay Enterprise collectively handled approximately $85 billion of gross merchandise volume and gross merchandise sales, which grew 13 percent year over year.

Scott Schenkel, currently the CFO of eBay Marketplaces will become the CFO of the new eBay company.

A global commerce leader with 149 million active buyers, eBay is one of the world’s top 30 global brands and a top 10 retail global brand
(Interbrand).

Offering consumers worldwide extraordinary value and selection, eBay has more than 700 million live listings at any given time, and approximately 75% of sold items are new.

eBay also is a leader in emerging competitive battlegrounds such as mobile and cross-border commerce.

eBay has an installed mobile base of 200 million apps, generating $20 billion in mobile volume.

Cross-border commerce represents 20% of eBay’s gross merchandise volume and 61% of Marketplaces revenue is international.

“eBay has been a leading innovator in the world of commerce for almost 20 years; it’s an incredibly special business,”
Donahoe said.
“Since joining eBay three years ago, Devin has proven to be an exceptional global leader and operating executive. He is steadily enhancing eBay’s unique assets and capabilities and creating new commerce experiences to ensure long-term growth and commerce leadership. He will make a fantastic CEO of eBay.”


The “new” PayPal

Concurrent with the announcement of the business separation plan, the company also today announced the appointment of Dan Schulman to be President of PayPal, effective immediately, and CEO-designee of the standalone PayPal company following separation.

Schulman joins PayPal from American Express, where he was president of the company’s Enterprise Growth Group.

A seasoned leader in multiple industries, Schulman has held senior executive and CEO roles at AT&T, Priceline and Virgin Mobile, prior to joining American Express.

“As both a leading global technology platform and a financial services business, PayPal requires a diverse blend of leadership skills and operating experience in its president and future CEO,”
Donahoe said.
“Dan has a proven track record of leading complex technology businesses at scale, driving sustainable growth and understanding how to innovate to drive competitive advantage and deliver compelling experiences for customers. I am thrilled to have him lead PayPal forward as a publicly traded, independent global payments leader, and we welcome him to the team.”

“Together, eBay and PayPal have delivered substantial value creation for our shareholders,”
Donahoe said.
“We believe eBay and PayPal will continue to do so as separate, independent companies. Tremendous opportunities exist for each business.”
