Note:
    The matters discussed in this presentation contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties
    concerning Yahoo!’s expected financial performance, as well as Yahoo!’s strategic and operational plans. Actual results
    may differ materially from the results predicted, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future
    performance. The potential risks and uncertainties include, among others, the impact of management and organizational
    changes; the implementation and results of Yahoo!'s ongoing strategic and cost reduction initiatives; Yahoo!'s ability to
    compete with new or existing competitors; reduction in spending by, or loss of, marketing services customers; the demand
    by customers for Yahoo!'s premium services; acceptance by users of new products and services; risks related to joint
    ventures and the integration of acquisitions; risks related to Yahoo!'s international operations; failure to manage growth and
    diversification; adverse results in litigation, including intellectual property infringement claims; Yahoo!'s ability to protect its
    intellectual property and the value of its brands; dependence on key personnel; dependence on third parties for technology,
    services, content, and distribution; general economic conditions and changes in economic conditions; the possibility that
    third parties may in the future make proposals to acquire all or a part of Yahoo!, or take other actions which may create
    uncertainty for our employees, publishers, advertisers, and other business partners; and the possibility of significant costs of
    defense, indemnification, and liability resulting from stockholder litigation. All information in this presentation is as of January
    27, 2009 and Yahoo! does not intend, and undertakes no duty, to update this information to reflect future events or

    Note: Operating Cash Flow (OCF) is also referred to as operating income before depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. OCF is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as income from operations before
    depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation expense (including the compensation of Terry Semel, who served as our chief executive officer through June 18, 2007 and whose compensation after June
    1, 2006 consisted almost entirely of stock-based compensation). Q1’08 OCF of $433 million includes, and adjusted OCF of $476 million excludes, a pre-tax cash charge of $29 million for severance pay expenses and related cash
    expenditures related to a strategic workforce realignment the Company implemented during the quarter, as well as incremental costs of $14 million incurred for outside advisors related to Microsoft’s unsolicited proposal, other strategic
    alternatives, and related litigation defense costs. Q2’08 OCF of $427 million and Q3’08 OCF of $410 million include, and Q2’08 adjusted OCF of $449 million and Q3’08 adjusted OCF of $447 million exclude, incremental costs of $22
    million and $37 million, respectively, incurred for outside advisors related to Microsoft’s proposals to acquire all or a part of the Company, other strategic alternatives, including the Google agreement, the proxy contest, and related
    litigation defense costs (the “strategic alternatives and related matters”). Q4’08 OCF of ($60) million includes, and Q4’08 adjusted OCF of $542 million excludes, the goodwill impairment charge of $488 million related to our international
    segment; restructuring charges of $108 million for severance, facilities, and other restructuring costs; and incremental costs for advisors of $7 million related to the strategic alternatives and related matters.

Note: Non-GAAP Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income excluding certain gains, losses, expenses, and their related tax effects that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating results.
All per share amounts are based on fully diluted share counts. Q1’08 non-GAAP net income excludes a net strategic workforce realignment charge of $17 million (comprised of $29 million in pre-tax cash charges in severance
pay expenses and related cash expenditures, offset by $12 million in stock-based compensation expense reversals), as well as incremental costs of $14 million incurred for outside advisors related to Microsoft’s unsolicited
proposal, other strategic alternatives, and related litigation defense costs. Q2’08 non-GAAP net income and Q3’08 non-GAAP net income exclude incremental costs for advisors of $22 million and $37 million, respectively,
related to the strategic alternatives and related matters. Q4’08 non-GAAP net income excludes the goodwill impairment charge of $488 million related to our international segment; restructuring charges, net, of $90 million
(comprised of $108 million in severance, facilities and other restructuring costs, offset by $18 million in stock-based compensation expense reversals); and incremental costs for advisors of $7 million related to the strategic
alternatives and related matters.
Q4’08 non-GAAP net income also includes a reversal to stock-based compensation expense of $51 million pre-tax to reflect an increase in estimated forfeiture rates related to equity awards.

Note: In Q4’08, the cash and marketable debt securities balance was $3.5 billion, an increase of $223 million from Q3’08, due to $219 million of Free Cash Flow (see Table 3 for Free Cash Flow
Calculation), $32 million of cash generated from the issuance of common stock as a result of the exercise of employee stock options, and a net $19 million from other investing activities, offset by
$4 million used to acquire intellectual property rights, and by $12 million used for tax withholdings related to net share settlements of restricted stock rewards and restricted stock units.

Note: Operating Cash Flow (OCF) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as income from operations before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation expense (including the compensation
of Terry Semel, who served as our chief executive officer through June 18, 2007 and whose compensation after June 1, 2006 consisted almost entirely of stock-based compensation). Q1’08 OCF includes a pre-tax cash charge of
$29 million for severance pay expenses and related cash expenditures related to a strategic workforce realignment the Company implemented in the quarter, as well as incremental costs for advisors of $14 million related to
Microsoft’s unsolicited proposal, other strategic alternatives, and related litigation defense costs. Q2’08 OCF and Q3’08 OCF include incremental costs for advisors of $22 million and $37 million, respectively, related to the strategic
alternatives and related matters. Q4’08 OCF of ($60) million includes the goodwill impairment charge of $488 million related to our international segment; restructuring charges of $108 million for severance, facilities and other
restructuring costs; and incremental costs for advisors of $7 million related to the strategic alternatives and related matters.

(1) In Q4’08, the Company recorded a reversal to stock-based compensation expense of $51 million pre-tax to reflect an increase in estimated forfeiture rates related to equity awards.

  Note: Free Cash Flow (FCF) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as cash flow from operating activities (adjusted to include excess tax benefits
  from stock-based compensation), less net capital expenditures and dividends received. The excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation, as
  reported on the statements of cash flows in financing activities, represent the reduction in income taxes otherwise payable during the period,
  attributable to the actual gross tax benefits in excess of the expected tax benefits for options exercised/awards released in current and prior periods.

     Note: Operating Cash Flow (OCF) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as income from operations before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based
     compensation expense (including the compensation of Terry Semel, who served as our chief executive officer through June 18, 2007 and whose compensation after June 1, 2006
     consisted almost entirely of stock-based compensation). The current outlook is based on current information and expectations as of January 27, 2009. Yahoo! does not expect, and
     undertakes no obligation, to update this outlook prior to the release of the Company’s next quarterly earnings announcement, notwithstanding subsequent developments; however,
     Yahoo! may update this business outlook or any portion thereof at any time at its discretion. The outlook for the three months ending March 31, 2009 excludes any restructuring
     charges arising from our ongoing cost reduction initiatives as well as any incremental costs for advisors related to the strategic alternatives and related matters and reflects an
     increase in estimated forfeiture rates enacted in Q4’08 related to equity awards.

 strategic alternatives, and related litigation defense costs. Q2’08 GAAP operating income and Q3’08 GAAP operating income include incremental costs for advisors of $22 million and $37
 million, respectively, related to the strategic alternatives and related matters. Excluding these charges, US GAAP operating income as a percentage of GAAP revenue would have been 6%

 GAAP operating income includes the goodwill impairment charge of $488 million related to our international segment; restructuring charges of $108 million for severance, facilities and other
 restructuring costs; and incremental costs for advisors of $7 million related to the strategic alternatives and related matters. Excluding these charges, US, International, and Worldwide
 GAAP operating income as a percentage of GAAP revenue would have been 15%, 25%, and 18%, respectively, in Q4’08.
