This excerpt taken from the EBAY 10-K filed Feb 28, 2007. 2006
summary
In 2006, we generated nearly $6.0 billion in net revenues,
representing a 31%
year-over-year
growth rate; we earned nearly $1.4 billion in operating
income; and we closed the year with $3.5 billion in cash,
cash equivalents and investments after taking into account the
repurchase of approximately 54.5 million shares of our
common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
$1.7 billion. During 2006, we focused on integrating the
businesses we acquired in 2005, which allowed us to strengthen
our leadership position in each of our three key business areas
in the U.S. and abroad. We expanded our user base in all three
business segments, and as of December 31, 2006 we had
222 million eBay registered users; 133 million PayPal
accounts; and 171 million Skype registered users.
