Avoid data theft and downtime by extending the
security perimeter outside the data-center and
protect from increasing frequency, scale and
sophistication of web attacks.
This presentation and webcast include information about Akamai’s future expectations, plans and prospects that constitute
forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, including estimates about future revenues and market developments. Actual results may differ materially from those
indicated by these forward-looking statements… as a result of various important factors including, but not limited to…
• Failure to maintain the prices we currently charge for our solution
and services;
• Inability to effectively compete with existing companies and new
entrants in the markets in which we operate;
• Unexpected network and service interruptions that cause loss
of revenues, increased expenses or diversion of resources;
• Failure to increase our revenue at the same rate as in the past and
keep our expenses from increasing at a greater rate than our revenues;
• Changes in relationships with our network providers that increase
our operating expenses;
• Failure of new solutions and services we offer to operate as expected
or to gain widespread market acceptance;
• Delay in developing or failure to develop new service offerings or
functionalities, and if developed, lack of market acceptance of such
service offerings and functionalities; and
• Other factors that are discussed in our annual report, on Form 10-K,
our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other documents periodically
filed with the SEC.
• In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our views as of
February 24, 2015 and should not be relied upon as representing our
views as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-
looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim
any obligation to do so, even if our views change.
• Finally, during this presentation we will be referring to non-GAAP financial
measures such as Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are not
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A reconciliation between non-GAAP and the most directly comparable
GAAP financial measures appears in the News and Publications portion
of the Investor Relations section of our Web site.

Metrics and Definitions

Avoid data theft and downtime by extending the
security perimeter outside the data-center and
protect from increasing frequency, scale and
sophistication of web attacks.
• Adjusted EBITDA – GAAP net income excluding the following items: interest income; income taxes; depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible assets; stock-based compensation; amortization of capitalized stock-based
compensation; restructuring charges; acquisition-related costs; certain gains and losses on investments; benefit from adoption of software development activities, gains and other activity related to divestiture of a business; foreign
exchange gains and losses; loss on early extinguishment of debt, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs; amortization of capitalized interest expense; gains and losses on legal settlements and other non-recurring or
unusual items that may arise from time to time.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin – Adjusted EBITDA stated as a percentage of revenue.
• Capital expenditures – Purchases of property and equipment, capitalization of internal-use software development costs, capitalization of stock-based compensation and capitalization of interest expense.
• Cash cost of revenue – GAAP cost of revenue, excluding stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization.
• Cash operating expenses – GAAP operating expenses (consisting of research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative, amortization of acquired intangible assets and restructuring charges), excluding
stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlements, benefit from adoption of software development activities and
gains from other activity related to divestiture of a business.
• Free cash flow – Cash flows from operations less purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of internal-use software development costs included in the statement of cash flows.
• Cash gross margin – Revenue less cash cost of revenue.
• Cash gross profit – Revenue less GAAP cost of revenue, excluding stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of revenue. cash cost of revenue.
• Cash operating expenses – GAAP operating expenses (consisting of research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, and
restructuring charges), excluding stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlements, benefit from adoption of
software development activities and gains and other activity related to divestiture of a business.
• Gross R&D – GAAP research and development expenses, plus salaries and payroll-related costs (excluding stock-based compensation) of research and development employees and consultants who devote time to the development
of internal-use software projects and whose costs have been capitalized during the period.
• Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates on Revenue – Revenue from international operations has historically been an important contributor to Akamai’s total revenue. Consequently, Akamai’s revenue results have been
impacted, and management expects they will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, when the local currencies of Akamai’s foreign subsidiaries weaken, consolidated results stated in
U.S. dollars are negatively impacted. Because exchange rates are an meaningful factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, management believes the presentation of the impact of foreign currency exchanges rates on
revenue enhances the understanding of revenue results and evaluation of its performance in comparison to prior periods. The information presented is calculated by translating current period results using the same average foreign
currency exchange rates per month from the comparative period.
• Non-GAAP Tax Rate – GAAP tax rate excluding the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments and certain discrete tax items.
• Operational free cash flow – Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, excluding stock-based compensation.
• Revenue, adjusted for ADS divestiture – Revenue excluding the impact of Akamai's Advertising Decision Solutions (ADS) divestiture.
