Booking Holdings Reports Financial Results for 2^nd^ Quarter 2020

NORWALK, CT – August 6, 2020. . . Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: BKNG) today reported its 2^nd^ quarter 2020 financial results. Second quarter gross travel bookings for Booking Holdings Inc. (the "Company," "Booking Holdings," "we," "our" or "us"), which refers to the total dollar value, generally inclusive of taxes and fees, of all travel services booked by its customers, net of cancellations, were $2.3 billion, a decrease of 91% over a year ago (approximately a 91% decrease on a constant-currency basis). Room nights booked in the 2^nd^ quarter decreased 87% over a year ago. The Company's results for the 1^st^ half of 2020 have been significantly and negatively impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic conditions and government orders.

Booking Holdings' total revenues for the 2^nd^ quarter of 2020 were $630 million, an 84% decrease from the prior year (approximately an 83% decrease on a constant-currency basis). Net income in the 2^nd^quarter of 2020 was $122 million, an 88% decrease as compared to the prior year. Net income for the 2^nd^ quarters of 2020 and 2019 includes gains on marketable equity securities of $835 million and $17 million, respectively. Net income in the 2^nd^ quarter of 2020 was $2.97 per diluted share, an 87% decrease as compared to the prior year.

Non-GAAP total revenues for the 2^nd^ quarter of 2020 were $630 million, an 83% decrease as compared to the prior year (approximately an 83% decrease on a constant currency basis). Non-GAAP net loss in the 2^nd^ quarter of 2020 was $443 million, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.0 billion in the prior year. Non-GAAP net loss in the 2^nd^ quarter was $10.81 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $23.59 per diluted share in the prior year. Non-GAAP net income (loss) includes adjustments to exclude net gains or losses on marketable equity securities. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the 2^nd^ quarter of 2020 was $376 million, compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $1.4 billion a year ago. The section below entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" provides definitions and information about the use of non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, and the attached financial and statistical supplement reconciles non-GAAP financial results with Booking Holdings' financial results under GAAP.

"We faced a challenging second quarter and continue to face challenges due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel demand. However, we have witnessed improvement in booking trends since April, which is encouraging" said Glenn Fogel, Chief Executive Officer of Booking Holdings. Mr. Fogel continued, "Looking forward, we continue to execute on our operating plans to navigate the Company through these challenging times and enable us to emerge from this crisis in a position of strength."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operating results.

To supplement the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP total revenues, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per diluted share and free cash flow (net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The presentation of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a basis to

evaluate performance and set targets for employee compensation programs. The Company believes that these non-

GAAP financial measures are useful for analysts and investors to evaluate the Company's ongoing operating

performance because they facilitate comparison of the Company's results for the current period and projected next-period results to those of prior periods and to those of its competitors (though other companies may calculate

similar non-GAAP financial measures differently from those calculated by the Company). These non-GAAP

financial measures, in particular adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and free cash flow are not intended to represent funds available for Booking Holdings' discretionary use and are not intended to represent or to be used as a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flow from operations as measured under GAAP. The items excluded from these non-GAAP measures but included in the calculation of their closest GAAP equivalent, are significant components of the Company's consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and must be considered in performing a comprehensive assessment of overall financial performance.

Non-GAAP net income is net income with the following adjustments:

•  excludes an adjustment to merchant revenues related to prior periods due to a correction in the timing of revenue recognition on a component of merchant revenue in the 1^st^ quarter of 2019, which was reversed in the 2^nd^ quarter of 2019,

•excludes charges, if any, to correct an error related to the nonpayment of prior-period wage-related tax on compensation paid to certain highly-compensated former employees in the year of separation,

•excludes amortization expense of intangible assets,

•  excludes the impact, if any, of impairment of goodwill,

•  excludes non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of debt discount and gains or losses on

early extinguishment of debt, if any, related to our convertible debt,

•  excludes the impact, if any, of significant gains or losses on the sale of cost-method investments and

significant charges related to other-than-temporary impairments of such investments,

•  excludes gains and losses on marketable equity securities,

•excludes foreign currency transaction gains or losses on Euro-denominated debt that is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes,

•excludes income taxes, if any, related to convertible notes held for investment that matured, and were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to income tax expense,

•  excludes the income tax impact, if any, related to one-time adjustments as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") enacted in December 2017, and

•  the income tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments mentioned above.

In addition to the adjustments listed above regarding non-GAAP net income, adjusted EBITDA excludes

depreciation expense, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense.

We evaluate certain operating and financial measures on both an as-reported and constant-currency basis.  We calculate constant currency by converting our current-year period results for transactions recorded in currencies other than U.S. Dollars using the corresponding prior-year period monthly average exchange rates rather than the current-year period monthly average exchange rates.

The attached financial and statistical supplement includes reconciliations of our financial results under GAAP to non-GAAP financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
