Adjustments and like-for-like growth reporting

Adjustments

• Figures are adjusted for double-counting, based on information provided by survey participants

• YouTube revenues have been estimated based on the same expert views as Facebook. This is not incremental spend as already included in Google total revenues but it is display rather than search spend and we have shifted revenues accordingly from search into display

• Total advertising revenue is reported on a gross basis

Like for like growth reporting

• This study reports for the first time like-for-like growth figures not only for total spend but also main formats (display, search, classifieds)

• Only companies which submitted in both 2008 and 2009 have been included in the YOY growth calculations

• A total of 23 companies’ figures are not included in the like-for-like comparisons

• In addition, the estimates for Facebook and YouTube have also been excluded
