NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

      Akamai Technologies, Inc. (“Akamai” or the “Company”) provides distributed computing solutions and services that are designed to enable customers to extend and control their Web operations without the cost of building out their Internet-related infrastructures. Akamai’s globally distributed platform comprises more than 15,000 servers in 1,000 networks in 69 countries. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1998 and is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Akamai currently operates in one business segment: providing Internet-related infrastructure services and software.

      The consolidated financial statements of Akamai have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial information included herein, other than the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, has been prepared without audit. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from, but does not include all the disclosures contained in, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003. In the opinion of management, these unaudited statements include all adjustments and accruals consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Akamai’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

      The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Akamai and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to current year presentation.

 
2.  Recent Accounting Pronouncement

      In September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (the “EITF”) reached consensus on Issue 04-8 “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per Share.” EITF 04-8 provides guidance on when the dilutive effect of contingently convertible debt securities with a market trigger should be included in diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). The guidance states that these securities should be treated the same as other convertible securities and included in diluted EPS computation, regardless of whether the market price trigger has been met. If EITF 04-8 becomes finalized, it will be effective for all periods ending after December 15, 2004 and would be applied by retrospectively, restating previously reported EPS. (See Footnote 4.)

 
3.  Equity-Related Compensation

      Akamai accounts for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation expense is recorded for stock-based awards issued to employees and directors in fixed amounts and with fixed exercise prices at least equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Akamai applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (“SFAS No. 123”), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (“SFAS No. 148”), through disclosure only for stock-based awards issued to employees and directors. All stock-based awards to non-employees are accounted for at their fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 123.
