PART I
Overview
Google is a global technology leader focused on improving the ways people connect with information. We aspire to build products and provide services
that improve the lives of billions of people globally. Our mission is to organize the worlds information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our innovations in web search and advertising have made our website a top internet property
and our brand one of the most recognized in the world.
Our Motorola business is comprised of two operating segments. The Mobile segment
is focused on mobile wireless devices and related products and services. The Home segment is focused on technologies and devices that provide video entertainment services to consumers by enabling subscribers to access a variety of interactive
digital television services.
We generate revenue primarily by delivering relevant, cost-effective online advertising. Businesses use
our AdWords program to promote their products and services with targeted advertising. In addition, the third parties that comprise the Google Network use our AdSense program to deliver relevant ads that generate revenues and enhance the user
experience. We also generate revenues from Motorola by selling hardware products.
In December 2012, we entered into an agreement with
Arris Group, Inc. (Arris) and certain other persons providing for the disposition of our Motorola Home segment. The transaction is expected to close in 2013.
Our business is primarily focused around the following key areas: search, advertising, operating systems and platforms, enterprise and hardware products.
We were incorporated in California in September 1998 and reincorporated in Delaware in August 2003. Our headquarters are located at 1600
Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, California 94043, and our telephone number is (650) 253-0000. We completed our initial public offering in August 2004 and our Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the
symbol GOOG.
2012 Corporate Highlights
|
|
|
AndroidThe growth of our Android operating system continues to impress with approximately half a billion Android devices activated globally through
September 2012. |
|
|
|
Google PlayWe launched Google Play, an entirely cloud-based, digital entertainment destination with more than 700,000 apps and games plus music,
movies and books that our users can find, enjoy and share on the web and on their Android phone or tablet. |
|
|
|
SocialGrowing the + and shipping the Google. In 2011, we launched Google+, a new way to share online just like users do in the real
world, sharing different things with different people. In late 2011 and continuing in 2012, we have tightened integration between Google+ and our other Google properties, such as Gmail and YouTube and now have 235 million active users across
our Google properties. |
|
|
|
Nexus 7 TabletWe launched a powerful new tablet in June 2012 with a vibrant, 7 high-definition display. The Tegra-3 chipset, with a quad-core
CPU and 12-core GPU, makes everything, including games, extremely fast. And at only 340 grams, lighter than most tablets, Nexus 7 was built to bring users the best of Google that can be held in the palm of the users hand.
|
|
|
|
Google NowWe introduced Google Now, a predictive search feature that gets you just the right information at just the right time. It tells you the
days weather before you start your day, how much traffic to expect before you leave for work or school, when the next train will arrive as youre standing on the platform, or your favorite teams score while theyre playing
all automatically with cards appearing throughout the day at the moment you need them. |
3
|
|
|
Knowledge GraphGoogles Knowledge Graph, introduced in 2012, enables the user to search for things, people or places that Google knows about
landmarks, celebrities, cities, sports teams, buildings, geographical features, movies, works of arts and more and enhances Google Search by understanding the ambiguities in language and by better understanding a users query.
|
On December 19, 2012, Google and Arris announced that Motorola Mobility had entered into an agreement (Motorola
Agreement) with Arris and certain other persons providing for the disposition of the Home business for total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion in cash and common stock, subject to certain adjustments. Arris announced in January 2013 that
it has agreed to sell approximately 10.6 million shares of its common stock, valued at $150.0 million, to Comcast Corporation with the closing of the Comcast investment and the Home business disposition expected to occur simultaneously. As
provided for in the Motorola Agreement, the Comcast transaction will reduce the amount of stock consideration and increase the amount of cash consideration to be received by Google, but will not affect the total consideration. Specifically, the
shares issued to Comcast will reduce, on a share-for-share basis, the number of shares of Arris common stock to be issued to Google and simultaneously increase the cash consideration to be received by Google by $150.0 million. Assuming the
completion of the Comcast transaction, Comcast and Google will each own approximately 7.85% of the outstanding Arris common stock post-closing based on Arris capitalization as of the date of Arris announcement of the Comcast transaction.
The disposition of the Home business to Arris is not contingent upon Arris sale of common stock to Comcast. In the event that Arris sale of common stock to Comcast does not close for any reason, there will be no reduction in the amount
of shares of Arris common stock to be issued to Google and no corresponding increase in the amount of cash consideration. In that case, Google will own approximately 15.7% of the outstanding Arris common stock post-closing based on Arris
capitalization as of the date of the Arris announced transaction with Google. The disposition of the Home business is expected to close in 2013.
In January 2013, the FTC closed its investigations into our business practices, including search and advertising. In connection with the closing of the investigation, we have voluntarily agreed to make certain
product changes. In addition, we and Motorola have entered into a consent order with the FTC setting forth certain guidelines on our use of standards-essential patents in litigation.
Search
Our search technologies sort through an ever-growing amount of information to deliver relevant
and useful search results in response to user queries. We integrate innovative features into our search service and offer specialized search services to help users tailor their search. In addition, we are constantly improving and adding to our
products and services, to provide users with more relevant results so that users find what they are looking for faster. For instance, when users want to plan a trip, Flight Search is a feature that makes it easy for users to find flights that meet
their needs. Whether they have a specific destination with dates in mind or not, Flight Search can help users quickly find the best options for their trips. We also offer Product Listing Ads, which include richer product information, such as product
image, price, and merchant information, without requiring additional keywords or ad text.
In January 2012, we launched Search plus Your
World. Now, when a user performs a signed-in search on Google, the users results page may include Google+ content from people that the user is close to (or might be interested in following). Relevant Google+ profiles and Google+ pages related
to a specific topic or area of interest may also appear on a users results page.
In 2012, we also introduced Google Now and
Googles Knowledge Graph. Google Now is a predictive search feature that gets you just the right information at just the right time. It tells you the days weather before you start your day, how much traffic to expect before you leave for
work or school, when the next train will arrive as youre standing on the platform, or your favorite teams score while theyre playingall automatically with cards appearing throughout the day at the moment you need them.
Googles Knowledge Graph, introduced in 2012,
4
enables the user to search for things, people or places that Google knows about landmarks, celebrities, cities, sports teams, buildings, geographical features, movies, works of arts and
more and enhances Google Search in three main ways:
|
|
|
Find the Right ThingBy understanding the ambiguities and nuances in language the way users do, the Knowledge Graph makes Google Search more intelligent and
relevant. |
|
|
|
Get the Best SummaryWith the Knowledge Graph, we can better understand a users query, so that we can summarize relevant content around that topic,
including key facts users likely need for that particular query. |
|
|
|
Go Deeper and BroaderThe Knowledge Graph can help you make some unexpected discoveries. Weve always believed that the perfect search engine should
understand exactly what you mean and give you back exactly what you want. And we can sometimes help answer your next question before youve asked it, because the facts we show are informed by what other people have searched for.
|
Advertising
Google Search. The goal of AdWords, our primary auction-based advertising program, is to deliver ads that are so useful and relevant to
search queries or web content that they are a form of information in their own right. With AdWords, advertisers create simple text-based ads that then appear beside related search results or web content on our websites and on thousands of partner
websites in our Google Network, which is the network of third parties that use our advertising programs to deliver relevant ads with their search results and content. Most of our AdWords customers pay us on a cost-per-click basis, which means that
an advertiser pays us only when a user clicks on one of its ads. We also offer AdWords on a cost-per-impression basis that enables advertisers to pay us based on the number of times their ads appear on our websites and our Google Network
Members websites as specified by the advertiser.
Our AdSense program enables websites that are part of the Google Network to
deliver ads from our AdWords advertisers that are relevant to the search results or content on their websites. We share the majority of the revenues generated from these ads with the Google Network Members that display the ads. The AdSense program
enables advertisers to extend the reach of their ad campaigns, improves our partners ability to generate revenue from their content, and delivers relevant ads for their users.
To make mobile ad buying seamless and accessible for more than a million AdWords advertisers, we integrated our AdMob technology directly into our
AdWords system in June 2012. This enables advertisers to run effective campaigns across the more than 300,000 mobile applications running ads by AdMob all from within the AdWords interface. AdWords advertisers can now manage, measure and
adjust search, display and video ads, reaching people on more than 2 million websites and hundreds of thousands of apps, across all screens.
Google Display. Display advertising comprises the videos, text, images, and other interactive ads that run across the web on computers and mobile devices, including smart phones and handheld computers
such as netbooks and tablets. The Google Display Network provides advertisers services related to the delivery of display advertising across publishers participating in our AdSense program, publishers participating in the DoubleClick Ad Exchange,
and Google-owned sites such as YouTube and Google Finance.
Through our DoubleClick advertising technology, we provide to publishers,
agencies, and advertisers the ad serving technology, which is the infrastructure that enables billions of ads to be served each day across the web. Our DoubleClick Ad Exchange creates a real-time auction marketplace for the trading
of display ad space. We aim to simplify display advertising so it is easier for advertisers and publishers to manage campaigns across different formats, on different websites, and for different devices.
In addition, YouTube provides a range of video, interactive, and other ad formats for advertisers to reach their intended audience. YouTubes
video advertising solutions give advertisers a way to promote their content to the
5
YouTube community, as well as to associate with content being watched by their target audience. YouTube also offers analytic tools to help advertisers understand their audience and derive general
business intelligence. In the past year, YouTube has experienced strong growth in mobile viewers and has established key partnerships with content companies to help monetize mobile video.
Google Mobile. Mobile advertising is still in early innings, though the mobile device is quickly becoming the worlds newest gateway to
information. Google is focused on developing easy-to-use ad products to help advertisers extend their reach, help create revenue opportunities for our publisher partners, and deliver relevant and useful ads to users on the go.
Google Mobile extends our products and services by providing mobile-specific features to mobile device users. Our mobile-specific search
technologies include search by voice, search by sight, and search by location. Google Mobile also optimizes a large number of Googles applications for mobile devices in both browser and downloadable form. In addition, we offer advertisers the
ability to run search ad campaigns on mobile devices with popular mobile-specific ad formats, such as click-to-call ads in which advertisers can include a phone number within ad text. AdMob also offers effective ad units and solutions for
application developers and advertisers. We continue to invest in improving users access to Google services through their mobile devices.
Google Local. Google is committed to providing users with relevant local information. Weve organized information around more than 80 million places globally from various sources across the web.
Users can find addresses, phone numbers, hours of operation, directions and more for millions of local queries like shops, restaurants, parks and landmarks right on Google.com, on Google Maps and on Google Maps for mobile. They can also discover
more places that are right for them by rating the places theyve been, and getting customized recommendations based on their tastes and those of their friends directly within Google Maps. Our products and services also help local business
owners manage their online presence and connect with potential customers. Millions of business owners have verified their free business listings via Google Places to ensure that users have up-to-date information about their establishments, and to
contribute additional details such as photos and products/services offered. Google Offers brings people daily deals from local and national businesses, redeemable for discounted goods or services. From restaurants to spa treatments to outdoor
adventures, Google has deals from the best businesses a city has to offer as well as popular national brands.
Operating Systems and Platforms
Android. Working closely with the Open Handset Alliance, a business alliance of more than 75 technology and mobile companies, we
developed Android, a free, fully open source mobile software platform that any developer can use to create applications for mobile devices and any handset manufacturer can install on a device. We believe Android will drive greater innovation and
choice in the mobile device ecosystem, and provide consumers with a more powerful mobile experience.
Google Chrome OS and Google
Chrome. Google Chrome OS is an open source operating system with the Google Chrome web browser as its foundation. Both the Google Chrome OS and the Google Chrome browser are built around the core tenets of speed, simplicity, and security.
Designed for people who spend most of their time on the web, the Google Chrome OS is a new approach to operating systems. We are working with several original equipment manufacturers to bring computers running Google Chrome OS to users and
businesses. The Chrome browser runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers.
Google+. Google+ is a new way to share online just
like users do in the real world, sharing different things with different people. In late 2011 and continuing in 2012, we have tightened integration between Google+ and our other Google properties, such as Gmail and YouTube and now have
235 million active users across our Google properties.
Google Play. Google Play is an entirely cloud-based, digital
entertainment destination with more than 700,000 apps and games plus music, movies and books that our users can find, enjoy and share on the web and on their Android phone or tablet.
6
Google Drive. Google Drive is a place where users can create, share, collaborate, and keep all
of their stuff. Google Docs is built right into Google Drive so users can work with others in real time on documents, spreadsheets and presentations and users files go everywhere they do. When users change a file on the web, on their computer,
or on their mobile device, the file updates on every device where users have installed Google Drive.
Google Wallet. Google
Wallet is a virtual wallet that securely stores your credit and debit cards, offers, and rewards cards. Users can tap their phone to pay in-store using Google Wallet anywhere contactless payments are accepted at over 200,000 merchants across
the United States. Users can also pay online by signing into their Google Wallet account.
Google TV. Google TV is a platform
that gives consumers the power to experience television and the internet on a single screen, with the ability to search and find the content they want to watch. The Google TV platform is based on the Android operating system and runs the Google
Chrome browser.
Enterprise
Googles enterprise products provide familiar, easy-to-use Google technology for business settings. Through Google Apps, which includes Gmail,
Google Docs, Google Calendar, and Google Sites, among other features, we provide hosted, web-based applications that people can use on any device with a browser and an internet connection. In addition, we provide our search technology for use within
enterprises through the Google Search Appliance (real-time search of business applications, intranet applications, and public websites), on their public-facing sites with Google Site Search (custom search engine), and Google Commerce Search (for
online retail enterprises). We also provide versions of our Google Maps Application Programming Interface (API) for businesses (including fully interactive Google Maps for public and internal websites), as well as Google Earth Enterprise (a
behind-the-company-firewall software solution for imagery and data visualization). Our enterprise solutions have been adopted by a variety of businesses, governments, schools, and non-profit organizations. Google Apps is the first cloud computing
suite of message and collaboration tools to receive U.S. government security certification.
Motorola
Our Motorola Mobility business is comprised of two operating segments. The Mobile segment is focused on mobile wireless devices and related products
and services. The Home segment is focused on technologies and devices that provide video entertainment services to consumers by enabling subscribers to access a variety of interactive digital television services. In December 2012, we entered into an
agreement with Arris Group, Inc. and certain other persons providing for the disposition of our Home segment. The transaction is expected to close in 2013.
Research
We continue to develop new products and services and to enhance our existing ones through
research and product development and the licensing and acquisition of third-party businesses and technology. Our product development philosophy is to launch innovative products early and often, and then iterate rapidly to make those products even
better. We often post early stage products at test locations online or directly on Google.com. We then use data and user feedback to decide if and how to invest further in those products.
Our research and development expenses were $3.8 billion, $5.2 billion, and $6.8 billion in 2010, 2011, and 2012, respectively, which included
stock-based compensation expense of $861 million, $1.1 billion, and $1.3 billion, respectively. We expect to continue to invest in building the employee and systems infrastructures needed to support the development of new products and services and
to improve existing ones.
7
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of intellectual property laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to protect our proprietary technology and our brand. We have registered, and applied for the
registration of, U.S. and international trademarks, service marks, domain names, and copyrights. Additionally, we have filed U.S. and international patent applications covering certain of our proprietary technology. Over time, we have assembled a
portfolio of patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, domain names, and trade secrets covering our products and services. Our proprietary technology is not dependent on any single patent or copyright or groups of related patents or
copyrights. We believe the duration of our patents is adequate relative to the expected lives of our products. Although we rigorously protect our proprietary technology, any significant impairment of, or third-party claim against, our intellectual
property rights could harm our business or our ability to compete.
Sales and Support
We continue to develop and grow our sales and support infrastructure. We have over 85 offices in over 40 countries, the large majority of which
include sales people. Our global sales and support infrastructure has specialized teams across vertical markets. We bring businesses into our advertising network through direct, remote, and online sales channels, using technology and
automation wherever possible to improve our customers experience and to grow our business cost-effectively. Our direct advertising and sales teams focus on building relationships with the largest advertisers and leading internet companies. We
have built a multi-product sales force, with teams selling campaigns that include search, display (including DoubleClick and YouTube), and mobile advertising.
We provide customer service to our advertiser base through our global support organization. Our global support organization concentrates on helping our advertisers and Google Network Members get the most out of
their relationship with us.
No individual customer or groups of affiliated customers represented more than 10% of our revenues in 2010,
2011, or 2012.
Government Contracts
No
material portion of our business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the U.S. government.
Marketing
Googles global brand is well known. We believe that building a trusted, highly
recognized brand begins with providing high-quality products and services that make a notable difference in peoples lives. Marketing is responsible for generating advertiser revenue through marketing campaigns to small businesses, as well as
providing thought leadership to chief marketing officers through industry insight, research, and analysis. Our marketing, promotional, and public relations activities are designed to promote Googles brand image and differentiate it from
competitors.
Competition
Our business
is characterized by rapid change and converging, as well as new and disruptive, technologies. We face formidable competition in every aspect of our business, particularly from companies that seek to connect people with information on the web and
provide them with relevant advertising. We face competition from:
|
|
|
General purpose search engines, such as Yahoo and Microsofts Bing. |
|
|
|
Vertical search engines and e-commerce websites, such as Kayak (travel queries), Monster.com (job queries), WebMD (for health queries), and Amazon.com and eBay
(e-commerce). Some users will navigate directly to such websites rather than go through Google. |
8
|
|
|
Social networks, such as Facebook and Twitter. Some users are relying more on social networks for product or service referrals, rather than seeking information
through general purpose search engines. |
|
|
|
Other forms of advertising, such as television, radio, newspapers, magazines, billboards, and yellow pages, for ad dollars. Our advertisers typically advertise
in multiple media, both online and offline. |
|
|
|
Mobile applications on iPhone and Android devices, which allow users to access information directly from a publisher without using search engines.
|
|
|
|
Providers of online products and services. A number of our online products and services, including Gmail, YouTube, and Google Docs, compete directly with new and
established companies, which offer communication, information, and entertainment services integrated into their products or media properties. |
We compete to attract and retain users, for whom other products and services are literally one click away, primarily on the basis of the relevance and usefulness of our search results and the features,
availability, and ease of use of our products and services.
We also compete to attract and retain content providers (Google Network
Members, as well as other content providers for whom we distribute or license content), primarily based on the size and quality of our advertiser base, our ability to help these partners generate revenues from advertising, and the terms of our
agreements with them.
Government Regulation
We are subject to numerous domestic and foreign laws and regulations covering a wide variety of subject matter. New laws and regulations (or new interpretations of existing laws and regulations) may also impact our
business. The costs of compliance with these laws and regulations are high and are likely to increase in the future and any failure on our part to comply with these laws may subject us to significant liabilities and other penalties.
Culture and Employees
We take great pride in our
culture. We embrace collaboration and creativity, and encourage the iteration of ideas to address complex technical challenges. Transparency and open dialog are central to us, and we like to ensure that company news reaches our employees
first through internal channels.
Despite our rapid growth, we still cherish our roots as a startup and give employees the freedom to
act on their ideas regardless of role or function within the company. We strive to hire the best employees, with backgrounds and perspectives as diverse as our global users. We provide an environment where these talented people can have fulfilling
careers working on some of the biggest challenges in technology, and have a huge, positive impact on the world.
At December 31,
2012, we had 53,861 full-time employees, consisting of 19,746 in research and development, 15,306 in sales and marketing, 6,214 in general and administrative, and 12,595 in operations. All of Googles full-time employees are also equityholders,
with significant collective employee ownership. Although we have works councils and statutory employee representation obligations in certain countries, our U.S. employees are not represented by a labor union and we consider our employee relations to
be good. Competition for qualified personnel in our industry is intense, particularly for software engineers, computer scientists, and other technical staff.
Global Operations and Geographic Data
We provide our products and services in more than 100 languages
and in more than 50 countries, regions, and territories. On www.google.com or one of our other Google domains, users can find information in many
9
different languages and in many different formats. The United States accounted for approximately 47% of our revenues in 2012. Information regarding financial data by geographic areas is set forth
in Item 7 and Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8.
Seasonality
Our business is affected by both
seasonal fluctuations in internet usage and traditional retail seasonality. Internet usage generally slows during the summer months, and commercial queries typically increase significantly in the fourth quarter of each year. These seasonal trends
have caused and will likely continue to cause, fluctuations in our quarterly results, including fluctuations in sequential revenue growth rates.

Our operations and financial
results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our common stock.
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
We
face intense competition. If we do not continue to innovate and provide products and services that are useful to users, we may not remain competitive, and our revenues and operating results could be adversely affected.
Our business is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive, and is subject to changing technologies, shifting user needs, and frequent introductions
of new products and services. Our ability to compete successfully depends heavily on providing products and services that make using the internet a more useful and enjoyable experience for our users and delivering innovative products and
technologies to the marketplace. With our acquisition of Motorola, the competitive pressure to innovate will now encompass a wider range of products and services, including products and services that may be outside of our historical core business.
10
We have many competitors in different industries, including general purpose search engines, vertical
search engines and e-commerce sites, social networking sites, traditional media companies, wireless mobile device companies, and providers of online products and services. Our current and potential competitors range from large and established
companies to emerging start-ups. Established companies have longer operating histories and more established relationships with customers and users, and they can use their experience and resources in ways that could affect our competitive position,
including by making acquisitions, investing aggressively in research and development, aggressively initiating intellectual property claims (whether or not meritorious) and competing aggressively for advertisers and websites. Emerging start-ups may
be able to innovate and provide products and services faster than we can.
Our competitors are constantly developing innovations in web
search, online advertising, wireless mobile devices, and web-based products and services. The research and development of new, technologically advanced products is also a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation and
investment, as well as the accurate anticipation of technology, market trends and consumer needs. As a result, we must continue to invest significant resources in research and development, including through acquisitions, in order to enhance our web
search technology and our existing products and services, and introduce new products and services that people can easily and effectively use. If we are unable to provide quality products and services, then acceptance rates for our products and
services could decline and affect consumer and advertiser perceptions of our brand. In addition, these new products and services may present new and difficult technological and legal challenges, and we may be subject to claims if users of these
offerings experience service disruptions or failures or other issues. Our operating results would also suffer if our innovations are not responsive to the needs of our users, advertisers, and Google Network Members, are not appropriately timed with
market opportunities, or are not effectively brought to market. As technology continues to develop, our competitors may be able to offer user experiences that are, or that are seen to be, substantially similar to or better than ours. This may force
us to compete in different ways and expend significant resources in order to remain competitive. If our competitors are more successful than we are in developing compelling products or in attracting and retaining users, advertisers, and content
providers, our revenues and operating results could be adversely affected.
Our ongoing investment in new business strategies and new
products, services, and technologies is inherently risky, and could disrupt our ongoing businesses.
We have invested and expect to
continue to invest in new business strategies, products, services, and technologies. Such endeavors may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management from current operations, insufficient revenues to offset
liabilities assumed and expenses associated with these new investments, inadequate return of capital on our investments, and unidentified issues not discovered in our due diligence of such strategies and offerings. Because these new ventures are
inherently risky, no assurance can be given that such strategies and offerings will be successful and will not adversely affect our reputation, financial condition, and operating results.
Acquisitions and investments could result in operating difficulties, dilution, and other harmful consequences that may adversely impact our
business and results of operations.
Acquisitions are an important element of our overall corporate strategy and use of capital, and
we expect our current pace of acquisitions to continue. These transactions could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. We also expect to continue to evaluate and enter into discussions regarding a wide array of potential
strategic transactions. The process of integrating an acquired company, business, or technology has created, and will continue to create, unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. The areas where we face risks include:
|
|
|
Diversion of management time and focus from operating our business to acquisition integration challenges. |
|
|
|
Failure to successfully further develop the acquired business or technology. |
|
|
|
Implementation or remediation of controls, procedures, and policies at the acquired company. |
11
|
|
|
Integration of the acquired companys accounting, human resource, and other administrative systems, and coordination of product, engineering, and sales and
marketing functions. |
|
|
|
Transition of operations, users, and customers onto our existing platforms. |
|
|
|
Failure to obtain required approvals on a timely basis, if at all, from governmental authorities, or conditions placed upon approval, under competition and
antitrust laws which could, among other things, delay or prevent us from completing a transaction, or otherwise restrict our ability to realize the expected financial or strategic goals of an acquisition. |
|
|
|
In the case of foreign acquisitions, the need to integrate operations across different cultures and languages and to address the particular economic, currency,
political, and regulatory risks associated with specific countries. |
|
|
|
Cultural challenges associated with integrating employees from the acquired company into our organization, and retention of employees from the businesses we
acquire. |
|
|
|
Liability for activities of the acquired company before the acquisition, including patent and trademark infringement claims, violations of laws, commercial
disputes, tax liabilities, and other known and unknown liabilities. |
|
|
|
Litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims from terminated employees, customers, former stockholders, or other third
parties. |
Our failure to address these risks or other problems encountered in connection with our past or future
acquisitions and investments could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions or investments, incur unanticipated liabilities, and harm our business generally.
Future acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of our equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, or
amortization expenses, or impairment of goodwill, and restructuring charges, any of which could harm our financial condition or results. Also, the anticipated benefit of many of our acquisitions may not materialize.
We generate a significant portion of our revenues from advertising, and a reduction in spending by or loss of advertisers could seriously harm
our business.
We generated 95% of Google revenues from our advertisers in 2012. Following our acquisition of Motorola, we still
expect a significant portion of our revenues to come from advertising. Our advertisers can generally terminate their contracts with us at any time. Advertisers will not continue to do business with us if their investment in advertising with us does
not generate sales leads, and ultimately customers, or if we do not deliver their advertisements in an appropriate and effective manner. If we are unable to remain competitive and provide value to our advertisers, they may stop placing ads with us,
which would adversely affect our revenues and business.
In addition, expenditures by advertisers tend to be cyclical, reflecting
overall economic conditions and budgeting and buying patterns. Adverse macroeconomic conditions can also have a material negative impact on the demand for advertising and cause our advertisers to reduce the amounts they spend on advertising, which
could adversely affect our revenues and business.
Our revenue growth rate could decline over time, and we anticipate downward
pressure on our operating margin in the future.
Our revenue growth rate could decline over time as a result of a number of factors,
including increasing competition, changes in our product mix, including a significant increase in mobile search queries and a deceleration in the growth of desktop queries if monetization stays at current levels, and how users make queries
12
and act on them, the challenges in maintaining our growth rate as our revenues increase to higher levels, the evolution of the online advertising market, including the increasing variety of
online platforms for advertising, and the other markets in which we participate and the success of our investments in new business strategies, products, services, and technologies, such as our acquisition of Motorola.
The revenue growth rate of our Motorola business will also depend on a number of factors, including the success of the new products we plan to
introduce, our reliance on several large customers, the absence of long-term exclusivity arrangements with such customers, our ability to gain significant market share in the mobile devices space, our reliance on third-party distributors,
representatives and retailers to sell certain of its products and the successful implementation of our product and operating system strategies. Furthermore, industry consolidation in the telecommunications and cable industries could negatively
impact Motorolas business because there would be fewer network operators and it could be more difficult to replace any lost customers. Any of these factors could have a negative impact on Motorolas business and have an adverse effect on
our consolidated financial results.
We believe our operating margin will experience downward pressure as a result of increasing
competition and increased expenditures for many aspects of our business, including Motorola. For instance, our operating margin will experience downward pressure if a greater percentage of our revenues comes from ads placed on our Google Network
Members websites compared to revenues generated through ads placed on our own websites or if we spend a proportionately larger amount to promote the distribution of certain products, including Google Chrome. Both the margin on revenues we
generate from our Google Network Members and the margin on revenues from our Motorola business are significantly less than the margin on revenues we generate from advertising on our websites. Also, the margins on advertising revenues from mobile
devices and newer advertising formats are generally less than the margin on revenues we generate from advertising on our websites. Additionally, the margin we earn on revenues generated from our Google Network Members could decrease in the future if
we pay an even larger percentage of advertising fees to our Google Network Members.
We are subject to increased regulatory scrutiny
that may negatively impact our business.
The growth of our company and our expansion into a variety of new fields implicate a
variety of new regulatory issues, and we have experienced increased regulatory scrutiny as we have grown. We continue to cooperate with the European Commission (EC), other international regulatory authorities, and several state attorneys general in
investigations they are conducting with respect to our business and its impact on competition. Legislators and regulators, including those conducting investigations in the U.S. and Europe, may make legal and regulatory changes, or interpret and
apply existing laws, in ways that make our products and services less useful to our users, require us to incur substantial costs, expose us to unanticipated civil or criminal liability, or cause us to change our business practices. These changes or
increased costs could negatively impact our business and results of operations in material ways.
We are regularly subject to claims,
suits, government investigations, and other proceedings that may result in adverse outcomes.
We are regularly subject to claims,
suits, government investigations, and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust (such as the pending investigations by the EC), intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, tax, labor and employment, commercial disputes, content
generated by our users, goods and services offered by advertisers or publishers using our platforms, and other matters. Our acquisition of Motorola and our sale of hardware products also expose us to the risk of product liability and other
litigation involving assertions about product defects, as well as health and safety, hazardous materials usage, and other environmental concerns. In addition, our businesses face intellectual property litigation, as further discussed later, that
exposes us to the risk of exclusion and cease and desist orders, which could limit our ability to sell products and services.
Such
claims, suits, government investigations, and proceedings are inherently uncertain and their results cannot be predicted with certainty. Regardless of the outcome, such legal proceedings can have an adverse
13
impact on us because of legal costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. Determining reserves for our pending litigation is a complex, fact-intensive process that requires
significant judgment. It is possible that a resolution of one or more such proceedings could result in substantial fines and penalties that could adversely affect our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in
a particular period. These proceedings could also result in reputational harm, criminal sanctions, consent decrees, or orders preventing us from offering certain features, functionalities, products, or services, requiring a change in our business
practices or product recalls or other field action, or requiring development of non-infringing or otherwise altered products or technologies. Any of these consequences could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
More people are using devices other than personal computers to access the internet and accessing new platforms to make search queries. If
manufacturers and users do not widely adopt versions of our web search technology, products, or operating systems developed for these devices, our business could be adversely affected.
The number of people who access the internet through devices other than personal computers, including mobile phones, smartphones, handheld computers
such as netbooks and tablets, video game consoles, and television set-top devices, has increased dramatically in the past few years. The lower resolution, functionality, and memory associated with some alternative devices make the use of our
products and services through such devices more difficult and the versions of our products and services developed for these devices may not be compelling to users, manufacturers, or distributors of alternative devices. Each manufacturer or
distributor may establish unique technical standards for its devices, and our products and services may not work or be viewable on these devices as a result. Some manufacturers may also elect not to include our products on their devices. In
addition, search queries are increasingly being undertaken via apps tailored to particular devices or social media platforms, which could affect our share of the search market over time. As new devices and platforms are continually being
released, it is difficult to predict the problems we may encounter in adapting our products and services and developing competitive new products and services. We expect to continue to devote significant resources to the creation, support, and
maintenance of mobile products and services. If we are unable to attract and retain a substantial number of alternative device manufacturers, distributors, and users to our products and services, or if we are slow to develop products and
technologies that are more compatible with alternative devices and platforms, we will fail to capture the opportunities available as consumers and advertisers transition to a dynamic, multi-screen environment.
Our business depends on a strong brand, and failing to maintain and enhance our brand would hurt our ability to expand our base of users,
advertisers, Google Network Members, and other partners.
The brand identity that we have developed has significantly contributed to
the success of our business. Maintaining and enhancing the Google brand is critical to expanding our base of users, advertisers, Google Network Members, and other partners. We believe that the importance of brand recognition will
increase due to the relatively low barriers to entry in the internet market. Our brand may be negatively impacted by a number of factors, including data protection and security issues, service outages, and product malfunctions. If we fail to
maintain and enhance the Google brand, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business, operating results, and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected. Maintaining and enhancing our brand will depend
largely on our ability to be a technology leader and continue to provide high-quality innovative products and services, which we may not do successfully.
A variety of new and existing U.S. and foreign laws could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business.
We are subject to numerous U.S. and foreign laws and regulations covering a wide variety of subject matters. New laws and regulations (or new interpretations of existing laws and regulations) may also impact our
business. The costs of compliance with these laws and regulations are high and are likely to increase in the future. Any failure on our part to comply with these laws and regulations can result in negative publicity and diversion of management time
and effort and may subject us to significant liabilities and other penalties.
14
Furthermore, many of these laws were adopted prior to the advent of the internet and related
technologies and, as a result, do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the internet and related technologies. The laws that do reference the internet are being interpreted by the courts, but their applicability and scope remain uncertain.
For example, the laws relating to the liability of providers of online services are currently unsettled both within the U.S. and abroad. Claims have also been, or may be, threatened and filed against us under both U.S. and foreign laws for
defamation, invasion of privacy and other tort claims, unlawful activity, patent, copyright and trademark infringement, or other theories based on the nature and content of the materials searched and the ads posted by our users, our products and
services, or content generated by our users. Moreover, recent amendments to U.S. patent laws may affect the ability of companies, including us, to protect their innovations and defend against claims of patent infringement.
In addition, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act has provisions that limit, but do not necessarily eliminate, our liability for caching or
hosting, or for listing or linking to, third-party websites that include materials that infringe copyrights or other rights, so long as we comply with the statutory requirements of this act. Any future legislation impacting these safe harbors may
adversely impact us. Various U.S. and international laws restrict the distribution of materials considered harmful to children and impose additional restrictions on the ability of online services to collect information from minors. In the area of
data protection, many states have passed laws requiring notification to users when there is a security breach for personal data, such as Californias Information Practices Act. We face similar risks and costs as our products and services are
offered in international markets and may be subject to additional regulations.
We are, and may in the future be, subject to
intellectual property or other claims, which are costly to defend, could result in significant damage awards, and could limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future.
Internet, technology, and media companies own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets and frequently enter into
litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. In addition, patent holding companies may continue to seek to monetize patents they have purchased or otherwise obtained. As we have grown, the
intellectual property rights claims against us have increased and may continue to increase as we develop new products, services, and technologies.
We have had patent, copyright, and trademark infringement lawsuits filed against us claiming that certain of our products, services, and technologies, including Android, Google Search, Google AdWords, Google
AdSense, Motorola products, Google Books, Google News, Google Image Search, Google Chrome, Google Talk, Google Voice, and YouTube, infringe the intellectual property rights of others. Third parties have also sought broad injunctive relief against us
by filing claims in the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) for exclusion and cease and desist orders, which could limit our ability to sell our products or services in the U.S. or elsewhere if our products or services or those of our
customers or suppliers are found to infringe the intellectual property subject to the claims. Adverse results in any of these lawsuits may include awards of substantial monetary damages, costly royalty or licensing agreements (if licenses are
available at all), or orders preventing us from offering certain features, functionalities, products, or services, and may also cause us to change our business practices, and require development of non-infringing products or technologies, which
could result in a loss of revenues for us and otherwise harm our business.
In addition, many of our agreements with our customers and
partners, including certain suppliers, require us to indemnify them for certain intellectual property infringement claims against them, which could increase our costs as a result of defending such claims, and may require that we pay significant
damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. Such customers and partners may also discontinue the use of our products, services, and technologies, as a result of injunctions or otherwise, which could result in loss of revenues and
adversely impact our business. Moreover, supplier provided intellectual property indemnities to us, when obtainable, may not cover all damages and losses suffered by us and our customers from covered products. In addition, in connection with the
sale of Motorolas Home business to Arris Group, Inc. (Arris), we agreed to
15
indemnify Arris against certain intellectual property infringement litigation, including, among others, a patent infringement claim brought by TiVo relating to certain digital video recording
equipment sold by Motorola Mobility.
Regardless of the merits of the claims, intellectual property claims are often time consuming,
expensive to litigate or settle, and cause significant diversion of management attention. To the extent such intellectual property infringement claims are successful, they may have an adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows.
Our intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce
the value of our products, services, and brand.
Our patents, trademarks, trade secrets, copyrights, and other intellectual property
rights are important assets for us. Various events outside of our control pose a threat to our intellectual property rights, as well as to our products, services and technologies. For example, effective intellectual property protection may not be
available in every country in which our products and services are distributed or made available through the internet. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective.
Although we seek to obtain patent protection for our innovations, it is possible we may not be able to protect some of these innovations. Moreover,
because of our long-term interests in open source, we may not have adequate patent protection for certain innovations that later turn out to be important. Furthermore, there is always the possibility, despite our efforts, that the scope of the
protection gained will be insufficient or that an issued patent may be deemed invalid or unenforceable.
We also seek to maintain
certain intellectual property as trade secrets. The secrecy could be compromised by outside parties, or by our employees, which could cause us to lose the competitive advantage resulting from these trade secrets.
We also face risks associated with our trademarks. For example, there is a risk that the word Google could become so commonly used that
it becomes synonymous with the word search. If this happens, we could lose protection for this trademark, which could result in other people using the word Google to refer to their own products, thus diminishing our brand.
Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm our business and our ability to compete. Also, protecting our
intellectual property rights is costly and time consuming. Any increase in the unauthorized use of our intellectual property could make it more expensive to do business and harm our operating results.
We may be subject to legal liability associated with providing online services or content.
We host and provide a wide variety of services and products that enable users to exchange information, advertise products and services, conduct
business, and engage in various online activities both domestically and internationally. The law relating to the liability of providers of these online services and products for activities of their users is still somewhat unsettled both within the
U.S. and internationally. Claims have been threatened and have been brought against us for defamation, negligence, breaches of contract, copyright or trademark infringement, unfair competition, unlawful activity, tort, including personal injury,
fraud, or other theories based on the nature and content of information which we publish or to which we provide links or that may be posted online or generated by us or by third parties, including our users. In addition, we are and have been and may
again in the future be subject to domestic or international actions alleging that certain content we have generated or third-party content that we have made available within our services violates laws in domestic and international jurisdictions.
We also arrange for the distribution of third-party advertisements to third-party publishers and advertising networks, and we offer
third-party products, services, or content. We may be subject to claims concerning these
16
products, services, or content by virtue of our involvement in marketing, branding, broadcasting, or providing access to them, even if we do not ourselves host, operate, provide, or provide
access to these products, services, or content. Defense of any such actions could be costly and involve significant time and attention of our management and other resources, may result in monetary liabilities or penalties, and may require us to
change our business in an adverse manner.
Privacy concerns relating to our technology could damage our reputation and deter current
and potential users from using our products and services.
From time to time, concerns have been expressed by regulators and others
about whether our products, services, or processes compromise the privacy of users and others. Concerns about, or regulatory actions involving our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure, or security of personal information or other
privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and adversely affect operating results. While we strive to comply with all applicable data protection laws and regulations, as well as our own posted privacy policies, the
failure or perceived failure to comply may result, and in some cases has resulted, in inquiries and other proceedings or actions against us by government entities or others, or could cause us to lose users and customers, which could potentially have
an adverse effect on our business.
In addition, as nearly all of our products and services are web-based, the amount of data we store
for our users on our servers (including personal information) has been increasing. Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the release of our users data could seriously limit the adoption of our products and services,
as well as harm our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business. We expect to continue to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches. The risk that these types of events could seriously harm our business is likely to
increase as we expand the number of web-based products and services we offer, and operate in more countries.
Regulatory authorities
around the world are considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection. In addition, the interpretation and application of consumer and data protection laws in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere are often uncertain
and in flux. It is possible that these laws may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our data practices. If so, in addition to the possibility of fines, this could result in an order requiring that we change our data
practices, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Complying with these various laws could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business.
With our acquisition of Motorola, we face a number of manufacturing and supply chain risks that, if not properly managed, could
adversely impact our financial results and prospects.
With our acquisition of Motorola, we face a number of risks related to
manufacturing and supply chain management. For instance, the products we sell may have quality issues resulting from the design or manufacture of the product, or from the software used in the product. Sometimes, these issues may be caused by
components we purchase from other manufacturers or suppliers. If the quality of our Motorola products does not meet our customers expectations or our products are found to be defective, then our sales and operating earnings, and ultimately our
reputation, could be negatively impacted.
We rely on third parties to manufacture many of Motorolas assemblies and finished
products, and we have third-party arrangements for the design of some components and parts. Our Motorola business could be negatively affected if we are not able to engage third parties with the necessary capabilities or capacity on reasonable
terms, or if those we engage fail to meet their obligations (whether due to financial difficulties or other reasons), or make adverse changes in the pricing or other materials terms of our arrangements with them.
Motorola, like many electronics manufacturers, has also experienced supply shortages and price increases in the past driven by raw material
availability, manufacturing capacity, labor shortages, industry allocations, natural
17
disasters and significant changes in the financial or business condition of its suppliers. Workaround plans to address shortages have entailed in the past, and could entail in the
future, increased freight costs for expedited shipments. We cannot assure you that we will not experience shortages or other supply chain disruptions in the future or that they will not negatively impact our operations. In addition,
some of the components we use in our Motorola products are available only from a single source or limited sources, and we cannot assure you that we would be able to find replacement vendors on favorable terms or at all in the event of a supply chain
disruption.
Additionally, because many of our supply contracts have volume-based pricing or minimum purchase requirements, if the
volume of our Motorola sales decreases or does not reach projected targets, we could face increased materials and manufacturing costs or other financial liabilities that could make our Motorola products more costly per unit to manufacture and
therefore less competitive and negatively impact our financial results. Further, certain of our competitors may negotiate more favorable contractual terms based on volume and other commitments that may provide them with competitive advantages and
may impact our supply.
We also require our suppliers and business partners to comply with law and company policies regarding workplace
and employment practices, environmental compliance and intellectual property licensing, but we do not control them or their practices. If any of them violates laws or implements practices regarded as unethical, we could experience supply chain
disruptions, canceled orders, terminations of or damage to key relationships, and damage to our reputation. If any of them fails to procure necessary license rights to third-party intellectual property, legal action could ensue that could impact the
salability of our products and expose us to financial obligations to third parties.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act included disclosure requirements regarding the use of conflict minerals mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries (DRC) and procedures regarding a manufacturers efforts to prevent the
sourcing of such conflict minerals. SEC rules implementing these requirements may have the effect of reducing the pool of suppliers who can supply DRC conflict free components and parts, and we may not be able to obtain DRC
conflict free products or supplies in sufficient quantities for our operations. Also, since our supply chain is complex, we may face reputational challenges with our customers, stockholders and other stakeholders if we are unable to sufficiently
verify the origins for the conflict minerals used in our products.
If our security measures are breached, or if our services are
subject to attacks that degrade or deny the ability of users to access our products and services, our products and services may be perceived as not being secure, users and customers may curtail or stop using our products and services, and we may
incur significant legal and financial exposure.
Our products and services involve the storage and transmission of users and
customers proprietary information, and security breaches expose us to a risk of loss of this information, litigation, and potential liability. We experience cyber attacks of varying degrees on a regular basis, and as a result, unauthorized
parties have obtained, and may in the future obtain, access to our data or our users or customers data. Our security measures may also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, or otherwise. Additionally, outside parties may
attempt to fraudulently induce employees, users, or customers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our users or customers data. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal
and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services that could potentially have an adverse effect on our business. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable
or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach
of our security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed and we could lose users and customers.
18
Web spam and content farms could decrease our search quality, which could damage our reputation
and deter our current and potential users from using our products and services.
Web spam refers to websites that attempt
to violate a search engines quality guidelines or that otherwise seek to rank higher in search results than a search engines assessment of their relevance and utility would rank them. Although English-language web spam in our search
results has been significantly reduced, and web spam in most other languages is limited, we expect web spammers will continue to seek ways to improve their rankings inappropriately. We continuously combat web spam, including through indexing
technology that makes it harder for spam-like, less useful web content to rank highly. We face challenges from low-quality and irrelevant content websites, including content farms, which are websites that generate large quantities of
low-quality content to help them improve their search rankings. We are continually launching algorithmic changes focused on low-quality websites. If web spam and content farms continue to increase on Google, this could hurt our reputation for
delivering relevant information or reduce user traffic to our websites. In addition, as we continue to take actions to improve our search quality and reduce low-quality content, this may in the short run reduce our AdSense revenues, since some of
these websites are AdSense partners.
Interruption or failure of our information technology and communications systems could hurt our
ability to effectively provide our products and services, which could damage our reputation and harm our operating results.
The
availability of our products and services depends on the continuing operation of our information technology and communications systems. Our systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, terrorist attacks, floods, fires, power
loss, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, computer denial of service attacks, or other attempts to harm our systems. Some of our data centers are located in areas with a high risk of major earthquakes. Our data centers are also subject to
break-ins, sabotage, and intentional acts of vandalism, and to potential disruptions if the operators of these facilities have financial difficulties. Some of our systems are not fully redundant, and our disaster recovery planning cannot account for
all eventualities. The occurrence of a natural disaster, a decision to close a facility we are using without adequate notice for financial reasons, or other unanticipated problems at our data centers could result in lengthy interruptions in our
service. In addition, our products and services are highly technical and complex and may contain errors or vulnerabilities. Any errors or vulnerabilities in our products and services, or damage to or failure of our systems, could result in
interruptions in our services, which could reduce our revenues and profits, and damage our brand.
Our international operations
expose us to additional risks that could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.
Our international operations
are significant to our revenues and net income, and we plan to further expand internationally. International revenues accounted for approximately 53% of our consolidated revenues in 2012, and more than half of our user traffic has been coming from
outside the U.S. In certain international markets, we have limited operating experience and may not benefit from any first-to-market advantages or otherwise succeed.
Our Motorola business also has facilities outside the U.S., and nearly all of our Motorola products (other than some prototypes) are manufactured outside the U.S., primarily in China, Taiwan and Brazil. If our
manufacturing in these countries is disrupted, our overall capacity could be reduced and sales or profitability could be negatively impacted. We require these suppliers and business partners to comply with law and company policies regarding
workplace and employment practices, environmental compliance and intellectual property licensing, but we do not control them or their practices. If any of them violates laws or implements practices regarded as unethical, we could experience supply
chain disruptions, canceled orders, terminations of or damage to key relationships, and damage to our reputation. If any of them fails to procure necessary license rights to third-party intellectual property, legal action could ensue that could
impact the salability of our products and expose us to financial obligations to third parties.
Moreover, in connection with our
operations in Brazil, we have had and continue to have legal disputes and controversies, including tax, labor and trade compliance controversies and other legal matters that take many
19
years to resolve. We incur legal and other costs in managing and defending these matters and expect to continue to incur such costs. Based on our assessment of these matters, we
have recorded reserves on only a small portion of the total potential exposure. It is, however, very difficult to predict the outcome of legal disputes and controversies, including litigation, in Brazil and our ultimate exposure may be greater
than our current assessments and related reserves.
In addition to risks described elsewhere in this section, our international
operations expose us to other risks, including the following:
|
|
|
Changes in local political, economic, social, and labor conditions, which may adversely harm our business. |
|
|
|
Restrictions on foreign ownership and investments, and stringent foreign exchange controls that might prevent us from repatriating cash earned in countries
outside the U.S. |
|
|
|
Import and export requirements, tariffs, trade disputes and barriers, and customs classifications that may prevent us from offering products or providing
services to a particular market and may increase our operating costs. |
|
|
|
Potential injunctions from importation into the U.S. of our Motorola products manufactured outside the U.S. in an ITC matter. |
|
|
|
Longer payment cycles in some countries, increased credit risk, and higher levels of payment fraud. |
|
|
|
Still developing foreign laws and legal systems. |
|
|
|
Uncertainty regarding liability for services and content, including uncertainty as a result of local laws and lack of legal precedent.
|
|
|
|
Different employee/employer relationships, existence of workers councils and labor unions, and other challenges caused by distance, language, and cultural
differences, making it harder to do business in certain jurisdictions. |
|
|
|
Natural disasters, military or political conflicts, including war and other hostilities, and public health issues and outbreaks. |
In addition, compliance with complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to our international operations increases our cost of doing
business. These numerous and sometimes conflicting laws and regulations include internal control and disclosure rules, data privacy and filtering requirements, anti-corruption laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and other local laws
prohibiting corrupt payments to governmental officials, and antitrust and competition regulations, among others. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines and penalties, criminal sanctions against us, our officers, or our
employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and on our ability to offer our products and services in one or more countries, and could also materially affect our brand, our international expansion efforts, our ability to attract and retain
employees, our business, and our operating results. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, or agents will not
violate our policies.
Finally, since we conduct business in currencies other than U.S. dollars but report our financial results in U.S.
dollars, we face exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Although we hedge a portion of our international currency exposure, significant fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may adversely affect
our net income. Additionally, hedging programs are inherently risky and could expose us to additional risks that could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict and could cause our results to fall short of expectations.
Our operating results may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, many outside of our control. As a result, comparing our
operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely
20
on our past results as an indication of our future performance. Our quarterly, year-to-date, and annual expenses as a percentage of our revenues may differ significantly from our historical or
projected rates. Our operating results in future quarters may fall below expectations. Any of these events could cause our stock price to fall. Each of the risk factors listed in this section in addition to the following factors may affect our
operating results:
|
|
|
Our ability to continue to attract users to our websites and satisfy existing users on our websites. |
|
|
|
Our ability to monetize (or generate revenues from) traffic on our websites and our Google Network Members websites. |
|
|
|
Our ability to attract advertisers to our AdWords program, and our ability to attract websites to our AdSense program. |
|
|
|
The mix in our revenues between those generated on our websites and those generated through our Google Network and other factors, such as changes in product mix,
including a significant increase in mobile search queries and a deceleration in the growth of desktop queries if monetization stays at current levels, and the geographic mix of our revenues that can affect revenue growth rates and margins.
|
|
|
|
The amount of revenues and expenses generated and incurred in currencies other than U.S. dollars, and our ability to manage the resulting risk through our
foreign exchange risk management program. |
|
|
|
The amount and timing of operating costs and expenses and capital expenditures related to the maintenance and expansion of our businesses, operations, and
infrastructure. |
|
|
|
Our focus on long-term goals over short-term results. |
|
|
|
The results of our investments in risky projects, including new business strategies and new products, services, technologies and acquisitions.
|
|
|
|
Our ability to keep our websites operational at a reasonable cost and without service interruptions. |
|
|
|
Our ability to generate significant revenues from services in which we have invested considerable time and resources, such as Google Wallet.
|
Because our business is changing and evolving, our historical operating results may not be useful to you in
predicting our future operating results. In addition, advertising spending has historically been cyclical in nature, reflecting overall economic conditions, as well as budgeting and buying patterns. Also, user traffic tends to be seasonal. Our rapid
growth has tended to mask the cyclicality and seasonality of our business. As our growth rate has slowed, the cyclicality and seasonality in our business has become more pronounced and caused our operating results to fluctuate.
If we were to lose the services of Larry, Sergey, Eric, or other key personnel, we may not be able to execute our business strategy.
Our future success depends in a large part upon the continued service of key members of our senior management team. In particular,
Larry Page and Sergey Brin are critical to the overall management of Google and the development of our technology. Along with our Executive Chairman Eric E. Schmidt, they also play a key role in maintaining our culture and setting our strategic
direction. All of our executive officers and key employees are at-will employees, and we do not maintain any key-person life insurance policies. The loss of key personnel could seriously harm our business.
We rely on highly skilled personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel, hire qualified personnel, or maintain our
corporate culture, we may not be able to grow effectively.
Our performance largely depends on the talents and efforts of highly
skilled individuals. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate, and retain highly skilled personnel for all areas of our organization. Competition in our industry for qualified employees is intense,
and certain of our competitors have directly targeted our employees. In addition, our compensation arrangements, such as our equity award
21
programs, may not always be successful in attracting new employees and retaining and motivating our existing employees. Our continued ability to compete effectively depends on our ability to
attract new employees and to retain and motivate our existing employees.
In addition, we believe that our corporate culture fosters
innovation, creativity, and teamwork. As our organization grows, and we are required to implement more complex organizational management structures, we may find it increasingly difficult to maintain the beneficial aspects of our corporate culture.
This could negatively impact our future success.
Our business depends on continued and unimpeded access to the internet by us and
our users. Internet access providers may be able to block, degrade, or charge for access to certain of our products and services, which could lead to additional expenses and the loss of users and advertisers.
Our products and services depend on the ability of our users to access the internet, and certain of our products require significant bandwidth to
work effectively. Currently, this access is provided by companies that have significant market power in the broadband and internet access marketplace, including incumbent telephone companies, cable companies, mobile communications companies, and
government-owned service providers. Some of these providers have taken, or have stated that they may take, measures that could degrade, disrupt, or increase the cost of user access to certain of our products by restricting or prohibiting the use of
their infrastructure to support or facilitate our offerings, or by charging increased fees to us or our users to provide our offerings. Such interference could result in a loss of existing users and advertisers, and increased costs, and could impair
our ability to attract new users and advertisers, thereby harming our revenues and growth.
New technologies could block our ads,
which would harm our business.
Technologies have been developed (including by us) that can block the display of our ads and that
provide tools to users to opt out of our advertising products. Most of our revenues are derived from fees paid to us by advertisers in connection with the display of ads on web pages for our users. As a result, such technologies and tools could
adversely affect our operating results.
We are exposed to fluctuations in the market values of our investment portfolio.
Given the global nature of our business, we have investments both domestically and internationally. Credit ratings and pricing of
these investments can be negatively impacted by liquidity, credit deterioration or losses, financial results, or other factors. As a result, the value or liquidity of our cash equivalents and marketable securities could decline and result in a
material impairment, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
We may have exposure to
greater than anticipated tax liabilities.
Our future income taxes could be adversely affected by earnings being lower than
anticipated in jurisdictions that have lower statutory tax rates and higher than anticipated in jurisdictions that have higher statutory tax rates, by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, as a result of gains on our
foreign exchange risk management program, or changes in tax laws, regulations, or accounting principles, as well as certain discrete items. We are subject to regular review and audit by both domestic and foreign tax authorities. Any adverse outcome
of such a review or audit could have a negative effect on our operating results and financial condition. In addition, the determination of our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment, and there
are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although we believe our estimates are reasonable, the ultimate tax outcome may differ from the amounts recorded in our financial statements and may materially
affect our financial results in the period or periods for which such determination is made.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Stock
The trading price for our Class A common stock may continue to be volatile, and if the shares of the new class of non-voting Class C capital stock are distributed as expected, the trading price of that
class may also be volatile and may affect the trading price for the Class A common stock.
The trading price of our Class A common stock has at times experienced substantial price volatility and may continue to be volatile. For
example, from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the closing price of our Class A common stock ranged from $559.05 per share to $768.05 per share. The trading price of our Class A common stock may fluctuate widely in
response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among others:
|
|
|
Quarterly variations in our results of operations or those of our competitors. |
|
|
|
Announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, new products, significant contracts, commercial relationships, or capital commitments.
|
|
|
|
Recommendations by securities analysts or changes in earnings estimates. |
|
|
|
Announcements about our earnings that are not in line with analyst expectations, the risk of which is enhanced because it is our policy not to give guidance on
earnings. |
|
|
|
Announcements by our competitors of their earnings that are not in line with analyst expectations. |
|
|
|
Commentary by industry and market professionals about our products, strategies, and other matters affecting our business and results, regardless of its accuracy.
|
|
|
|
The volume of shares of Class A common stock available for public sale. |
|
|
|
Sales of Class A common stock by us or by our stockholders (including sales by our directors, executive officers, and other employees).
|
|
|
|
Short sales, hedging, and other derivative transactions on shares of our Class A common stock (including derivative transactions under our Transferable
Stock Option program). |
In addition, we have announced the intention of our board of directors to consider a
distribution of shares of our non-voting Class C capital stock as a dividend to our holders of Class A and Class B common stock, pending resolution of litigation involving the authorization of that class.
Although we plan to list the Class C capital stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market, we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, a liquid trading
market will develop for the Class C capital stock. If it does not or if the Class C capital stock is not attractive to targets as an acquisition currency or to our employees as an incentive, we may not achieve our objectives in creating this new
class. As in the case of the Class A common stock, the trading price for the Class C capital stock may also be volatile and affected by the factors noted above, as well as by the difference in voting rights as between the Class A common
stock and the Class C capital stock, the volume of Class C capital stock available for public sale and sales by us and our stockholders of Class C capital stock, including by institutional investors that may be unwilling, unable or choose not to
hold non-voting shares they receive as part of the stock dividend, if it is declared and paid. Whether or not the Class C capital stock is included in stock indices in the future may also affect the trading prices of the Class A common stock
and the Class C capital stock.
In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for technology companies in particular, have
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry factors may harm the market price of our Class A common stock,
and, if issued, our Class C capital Stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.
The concentration of our stock ownership
limits our stockholders ability to influence corporate matters.
Our Class B common stock has 10 votes per share and our
Class A common stock has one vote per share. As of December 31, 2012, Larry, Sergey, and Eric beneficially owned approximately 92% of our outstanding Class B
23
common stock, representing approximately 65% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. Larry, Sergey, and Eric therefore have significant influence over management and affairs and
over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or our assets, for the foreseeable future. In addition, because our Class C
capital stock carries no voting rights (except as required by applicable law), the issuance of the Class C capital stock, including in future stock-based acquisition transactions and to fund employee equity incentive programs, could prolong the
duration of Larry and Sergeys current relative ownership of our voting power and their ability to elect all of our directors and to determine the outcome of most matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Together with Eric, they would
also continue to be able to control any required stockholder vote with respect to certain change in control transactions involving Google (including an acquisition of Google by another company).
This concentrated control limits or severely restricts our stockholders ability to influence corporate matters and, as a result, we may take
actions that our stockholders do not view as beneficial. As a result, the market price of our Class A common stock and, if issued, our Class C capital stock could be adversely affected.
Provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable.
Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our
management. These provisions include the following:
|
|
|
Our certificate of incorporation provides for a dual class common stock structure. As a result of this structure, Larry, Sergey, and Eric have significant
influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or our assets. This concentrated control could discourage others
from initiating any potential merger, takeover, or other change of control transaction that other stockholders may view as beneficial. As noted above, the issuance of the Class C capital stock could have the effect of prolonging the influence of
Larry, Sergey, and Eric. |
|
|
|
Our board of directors has the right to elect directors to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Board of Directors or the resignation, death, or
removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors. |
|
|
|
Our stockholders may not act by written consent. As a result, a holder, or holders, controlling a majority of our capital stock would not be able to take certain
actions without holding a stockholders meeting. |
|
|
|
Our certificate of incorporation prohibits cumulative voting in the election of directors. This limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director
candidates. |
|
|
|
Stockholders must provide advance notice to nominate individuals for election to the Board of Directors or to propose matters that can be acted upon at a
stockholders meeting. These provisions may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirers own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
|
|
|
|
Our board of directors may issue, without stockholder approval, shares of undesignated preferred stock. The ability to issue undesignated preferred stock makes
it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us. |
As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to certain Delaware anti-takeover provisions. Under Delaware law, a corporation may not engage in a
business combination with any holder of 15% or more of its outstanding voting stock unless the holder has held the stock for three years or, among other things, the Board of Directors has approved the transaction. Our board of directors could rely
on Delaware law to prevent or delay an acquisition of us.

UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS |
None.
Our headquarters are located in Mountain
View, California, where we own approximately 3.5 million square feet of office and building space and approximately seven acres of developable land to accommodate anticipated future growth. We also own a 2.3 million square feet office
building in New York, New York and 665,000 square feet of office and building space in Paris, France and Dublin, Ireland. We also operate and own data centers in the U.S., Europe, and Asia pursuant to various lease agreements and co-location
arrangements.
In addition, we lease approximately 3.8 million square feet of office space and approximately 61 acres of
undeveloped land in and near our headquarters in Mountain View, California. We also lease additional research and development, and sales and support offices throughout the United States and maintain leased facilities internationally in countries
around the world. Larger leased sites include properties located in Dublin, Ireland; Zurich, Switzerland; London, UK; Hyderabad, India; San Francisco, CA; San Bruno, CA; Paris, France; Hamburg, Germany; Tel Aviv, Israel; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Ann
Arbor, MI; Bothell, WA; Cambridge, MA; Chicago, IL; Kirkland, WA; Venice, CA; Pittsburgh, PA; Seattle, WA; Sydney, Australia; Beijing, China; Shanghai, China; Bangalore, India; Gurgaon, India; Tokyo, Japan; and Singapore.
Motorola also operates manufacturing facilities, research and development, administrative and sales offices in various U.S. locations and in many
foreign countries. Motorola owns eight facilities (manufacturing, sales, service and offices), five of which are located in the Americas Region (U.S., Canada, Mexico, Central America and South America) and three of which are located in other
countries. As of December 31, 2012, Motorola leased 97 facilities, 31 of which are located in the Americas Region and 66 of which are located in other countries. Motorola Mobility owns three major facilities for the manufacturing and
distribution of its products. These facilities are located in Tianjin, China; Hsin Tien, Taiwan; and Jaguariuna, Brazil. As previously reported, Motorola is executing a significant consolidation of its portfolio, which will reduce the number of
facilities worldwide, including manufacturing, sales and marketing, and research and development locations.
We believe our existing
facilities, both owned and leased, are in good condition and suitable for the conduct of our business. Motorola generally considers the productive capacity of the plants operated by each of its business segments to be adequate and sufficient for the
requirements of each business group. The extent of utilization of such manufacturing facilities varies from plant to plant and from time to time during the year.

Holders of Record
As of December 31, 2012, there were approximately, 2,689 stockholders of
record of our Class A common stock, and the closing price of our Class A common stock was $707.38 per share as reported by the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Because many of our shares of Class A common stock are held by brokers and
other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of stockholders represented by these record holders. As of December 31, 2012, there were approximately 79 stockholders of record of our Class B common
stock.
Dividend Policy
We have never
declared or paid any cash dividend on our common stock. We intend to retain any future earnings and do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 7. |
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included under Item 8 of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
Google is a global technology leader focused on improving the ways people connect with information. We aspire to build products and provide services
that improve the lives of billions of people globally. Our mission is to organize the worlds information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our innovations in web search and advertising have made our website a top internet property
and our brand one of the most recognized in the world.
Our Motorola business is comprised of two operating segments. The Mobile segment
is focused on mobile wireless devices and related products and services. The Home segment is focused on technologies and devices that provide video entertainment services to consumers by enabling subscribers to access a variety of interactive
digital television services.
We generate revenue primarily by delivering relevant, cost-effective online advertising. Businesses use
our AdWords program to promote their products and services with targeted advertising. In addition, the third parties that comprise the Google Network use our AdSense program to deliver relevant ads that generate revenues and enhance the user
experience. We also generate revenues from Motorola by selling hardware products.
In December 2012, we entered into an agreement with
Arris and certain other persons providing for the disposition of our Motorola Home segment. The transaction is expected to close in 2013.
Trends in Our
Businesses
Advertising transactions continue to shift from offline to online as the digital economy evolves. This has contributed to the
rapid growth of our business since inception, resulting in substantially increased revenues, and we expect that our business will continue to grow. However, our revenue growth rate has generally declined over time, and it could do so in the future
as a result of a number of factors, including increasing competition, our investments in new business strategies, products, services, and technologies, changes in our product mix, query growth rates and how users make queries, challenges in
maintaining our growth rate as our revenues increase to higher levels, and the evolution of the online advertising market, including the increasing variety of online platforms for advertising, and other markets in which we participate.
Mobile search queries and mobile commerce are growing dramatically around the world, and consumers are using multiple devices to access
information. Over time these trends have resulted in changes in our product mix, including a significant increase in mobile search queries and a deceleration in the growth of desktop queries. We expect that our revenue growth rate will continue to
be affected by evolving consumer preferences, as well as by advertising trends, the acceptance by mobile users of our products and services, and our ability to create a seamless experience for both users and advertisers in a multi-screen
environment. In addition, if there is a further general economic downturn, this may result in fewer commercial queries by our users and may cause advertisers to reduce the amount they spend on online advertising, including the amount they are
willing to pay for each click or impression, which could negatively affect the growth rate of our revenues. We plan to continue to invest aggressively in our core areas of strategic focus.
The main focus of our advertising programs is to provide relevant and useful advertising to our users, reflecting our commitment to constantly
improve their overall web experience. As a result, we expect to continue to take steps to improve the relevance of the ads displayed on our websites and our Google Network Members websites. These steps include not displaying ads that generate
low click-through rates or that send users to irrelevant or otherwise low quality websites, updating our advertising policies and ensuring their compliance, and terminating our relationships with those Google Network Members whose websites do not
meet our quality requirements. We may also continue to take steps to reduce the number of accidental clicks by our users. These steps could negatively affect the growth rate of our revenues.
30
Both seasonal fluctuations in internet usage and traditional retail seasonality have affected, and
are likely to continue to affect, our business. Internet usage generally slows during the summer months, and commercial queries typically increase significantly in the fourth quarter of each year. These seasonal trends have caused, and will likely
continue to cause, fluctuations in our quarterly results, including fluctuations in sequential revenues, as well as aggregate paid click and average cost-per-click growth rates.
The operating margin we realize on revenues generated from ads placed on our Google Network Members websites through our AdSense program is
significantly lower than the operating margin we realize from revenues generated from ads placed on our websites because most of the advertiser fees from ads served on Google Network Members websites are shared with our Google Network Members.
For the past five years, growth in advertising revenues from our websites has generally exceeded that from our Google Network Members websites. This trend has had a positive impact on our operating margins, and we expect that this will
continue for the foreseeable future, although the relative rate of growth in revenues from our websites compared to the rate of growth in revenues from our Google Network Members websites may vary over time. Also, the margins on advertising
revenues from mobile devices and other newer advertising formats are generally lower than those from desktop computers and tablets. We expect this trend to continue to pressure our margins, particularly if we fail to realize the opportunities we
anticipate with the transition to a dynamic multi-screen environment.
We conduct our Motorola business in highly competitive markets,
facing both new and established competitors. The markets for many of our products are characterized by rapidly changing technologies, frequent new product introductions, changing consumer trends, short product life cycles, consumer loyalty and
evolving industry standards. Market disruptions caused by new technologies, the entry of new competitors, consolidations among our customers and competitors, changes in regulatory requirements, changes in economic conditions, supply chain
interruptions or other factors, can introduce volatility into our businesses. Meeting all of these challenges requires consistent operational planning and execution and investment in technology, resulting in innovative products that meet the needs
of our customers around the world.
From an overall business perspective, we continue to invest aggressively in our systems, data
centers, corporate facilities, information technology infrastructure, and employees. We increased our hiring in 2012, and we may continue to do so and to provide competitive compensation programs for our employees. Our full-time employee headcount
was 32,467 at December 31, 2011 and 53,861 at December 31, 2012, which includes 16,317 headcount from Motorola. Acquisitions will also remain an important component of our strategy and use of capital, and we expect our current pace of
acquisitions to continue. We expect our cost of revenues will increase in dollars and may increase as a percentage of revenues in future periods, primarily as a result of forecasted increases in traffic acquisition costs, manufacturing and
inventory-related costs, data center costs, content acquisition costs, credit card and other transaction fees, and other costs. In particular, traffic acquisition costs as a percentage of advertising revenues may increase in the future if we are
unable to continue to improve the monetization or generation of revenues from traffic on our websites and our Google Network Members websites.
As we expand our advertising programs and other products to international markets, we continue to increase our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency to U.S. dollar exchange rates. We have a foreign exchange
risk management program that is designed to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. However, this program will not fully offset the effect of fluctuations on our revenues and earnings.
Results of Operations
We completed our acquisition
of Motorola on May 22, 2012 (the acquisition date). The operating results of Motorola were included in our Consolidated Statements of Income from the acquisition date through December 31, 2012. In December 2012, we entered into an
agreement for the disposition of the Motorola Home segment and the related financial results are presented as net loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
31
Subsequent to the acquisition in May 2012, we initiated a restructuring plan in our Motorola
business. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of this restructuring plan and the associated restructuring charges. We continue to evaluate our
plans and further restructuring actions may occur, which may cause us to incur additional restructuring charges, some of which may be significant.
The following table presents our historical operating results as a percentage of revenues for the periods indicated:

Our revenues increased $12,270 million from 2011 to 2012. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in
advertising revenues generated by Google websites and Google Network Members websites and, to a lesser extent, an increase in other revenues driven by hardware product sales. The increase in advertising revenues for Google websites and Google
Network Members websites resulted primarily from an increase in the number of paid clicks through our advertising programs, partially offset by a decrease in the average cost-per-click paid by our advertisers. The increase in the number of
paid clicks generated through our advertising programs was due to an increase in aggregate traffic including mobile queries, certain monetization improvements including new ad formats, the continued global expansion of our products, advertisers, and
user base, as well as an increase in the number of Google Network Members. The decrease in the average cost-per-click paid by our advertisers was driven by various factors, such as the general strengthening of the U.S dollar compared to certain
foreign currencies (primarily the Euro), the revenue shift mix between Google websites and Google Network Members websites, the changes in platform mix due to traffic growth in mobile devices, where the average cost-per-click is typically
lower compared to desktop computers and tablets, and the changes in geographical mix due to traffic growth in emerging markets, where the average cost-per-click is typically lower compared to more mature markets.
In addition, the increase in our revenues from 2011 to 2012 resulted from the inclusion of revenues from our Motorola Mobile business of $4,136
million.
Our revenues increased $8,584 million from 2010 to 2011. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in advertising
revenues generated by Google websites and Google Network Members websites. The increase in advertising revenues for Google websites and Google Network Members websites resulted primarily from an increase in the number of paid clicks
through our advertising programs and, to a lesser extent, an increase in the average cost-per-click paid by our advertisers. The increase in the number of paid clicks generated through our advertising programs was due to an increase in aggregate
traffic, certain monetization improvements including new ad formats, and the continued global expansion of our products, and our advertiser and user base, as well as an increase in the number of Google Network Members. The increase in the average
cost-per-click paid by our advertisers was primarily driven by the increased spending from advertisers and a general weakening of the U.S dollar compared to foreign currencies (primarily the Euro, Japanese yen, and British pound), partially offset
by the
33
changes in geographical mix due to traffic growth in emerging markets, where the average cost-per-click is typically lower, compared to more mature markets. In addition, the increase in
advertising revenues for Google Network Members websites from 2010 to 2011 was partially offset by the loss of a search partnership and, to a lesser extent, by a search quality improvement made during the first quarter of 2011.
Improvements in our ability to ultimately monetize increased traffic primarily relate to enhancing the end user experience, including providing end
users with ads that are more relevant to their search queries or to the content on the Google Network Members websites they visit. For instance, these improvements include increasing site links to be full size links with the URL (uniform
resource locator), moving a portion of the first line of the ad to the heading to better promote the content of the ad, providing an option to preview the ad, and moving the ads URL to a separate line below the heading for greater
page format consistency.
Aggregate paid clicks on Google websites and Google Network Members websites increased approximately 34%
from 2011 to 2012 and approximately 25% from 2010 to 2011. Average cost-per-click on Google websites and Google Network Members websites decreased approximately 12% from 2011 to 2012 and increased approximately 3% from 2010 to 2011. The rate
of change in aggregate paid clicks and average cost-per-click, and their correlation with the rate of change in revenues, has fluctuated and may fluctuate in the future because of various factors, including the revenue growth rates on our websites
compared to those of our Google Network Members, advertiser competition for keywords, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, seasonality, the fees advertisers are willing to pay based on how they manage their advertising costs, changes in
advertising quality or formats, and general economic conditions. In addition, traffic growth in emerging markets compared to more mature markets and across various advertising verticals and channels, including mobile devices, also contributes to
these fluctuations. Changes in aggregate paid clicks and average cost-per-click may not be indicative of our performance or advertiser experiences in any specific geographic market, vertical, or industry.
We believe that the increase in the number of paid clicks on Google websites and Google Network Members websites is substantially the result
of our commitment to improving the relevance and quality of both our search results and the advertisements displayed, which we believe results in a better user experience, which in turn results in more searches, advertisers, and Google Network
Members and other partners.

The growth in revenues from the United States as a percentage of consolidated revenues from 2011 to 2012 was
primarily as a result of the inclusion of Motorola Mobile revenues which were primarily generated in the United States.

The general strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain foreign currencies (primarily the
Euro) from 2011 to 2012 had an unfavorable impact on our international revenues. Had foreign exchange rates remained constant in these periods, our revenues from the United Kingdom would have been $68 million or 1.4% higher and our revenues from the
rest of the world would have been approximately $1,211 million or 5.6% higher in 2012. This is before consideration of hedging gains of $18 million and $199 million recognized to revenues from the United Kingdom and the rest of the world in 2012.
The general weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain foreign currencies (primarily the Euro, Japanese yen, and British pound)
from 2010 to 2011 had a favorable impact on our international revenues. Had foreign exchange rates remained constant in these periods, our revenues from the United Kingdom would have been $129 million, or 3.2%, lower and our revenues from the rest
of the world would have been approximately $834 million, or 5.1%, lower in 2011. This is before consideration of hedging gains of $9 million and $34 million recognized to revenues from the United Kingdom and the rest of the world in 2011.
Although we expect to continue to make investments in international markets, these investments may not result in an increase in our
international revenues as a percentage of total revenues in 2013 or thereafter. See Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information about geographic
areas.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of
Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs consist of amounts ultimately
paid to our Google Network Members under AdSense arrangements and to certain other partners (our distribution partners) who distribute our toolbar and other products (collectively referred to as access points) or otherwise direct search queries to
our website (collectively referred to as distribution arrangements). These amounts are primarily based on the revenue share and fixed fee arrangements with our Google Network Members and distribution partners.
Certain distribution arrangements require us to pay our partners based on a fee per access point delivered and not exclusivelyor at
allbased on revenue share. These fees are non-refundable. Further, these arrangements are terminable at will, although under the terms of certain contracts we or our distribution partners may be subject to penalties in the event of early
termination. We recognize fees under these arrangements over the estimated useful lives of the access points (approximately two years) to the extent we can reasonably estimate those lives and they are longer than one year, or based on any
contractual revenue share, if greater. Otherwise, the fees are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful life of the access points is based on the historical average period of time they generate traffic and revenues.
Cost of revenues also includes the expenses associated with the operation of our data centers, including depreciation, labor, energy, and bandwidth
costs, credit card and other transaction fees related to processing customer transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well as content acquisition costs. We have entered into arrangements with certain content providers under which
we distribute or license their video and other content. In a number of these arrangements, we display ads on the pages of our websites from which the content is viewed and share most of the fees these ads generate with the content providers. We also
license content on the pages of our web sites from which the content is sold and share most of the fees these sales generate with content providers. To the extent we are obligated to make guaranteed minimum revenue share payments to our content
providers, we recognize as content acquisition costs the contractual revenue share amount or on a straight-line basis, whichever is greater, over the terms of the agreements.
In addition, cost of revenues includes manufacturing and inventory-related costs from our Motorola Mobile business.
35
The following tables present our cost of revenues and cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues by
business, and our traffic acquisition costs, and traffic acquisition costs as a percentage of advertising revenues in the Google business, for the periods presented (dollars in millions):

Cost of revenues increased $7,446 million from 2011 to 2012. The increase was primarily related to the inclusion of
manufacturing and inventory-related costs from our Motorola Mobile business of $3,458 million. Additionally, there was an increase in traffic acquisition costs of $2,145 million resulting from more advertiser fees generated through our AdSense
program, more traffic directed to our websites, as well as more distribution fees paid. The remaining increase was primarily driven by increase in data center costs, hardware product costs and content acquisition costs. The increase in traffic
acquisition costs as a percentage of advertising revenues was primarily the result of a greater increase in traffic acquisition costs related to distribution arrangements compared to the increase in advertising revenues generated by Google websites.
The increase in Google cost of revenues as a percentage of Google revenues was also driven by an increase in hardware product costs.
Cost of revenues increased $2,771 million from 2010 to 2011. The increase was primarily related to an increase in traffic acquisition costs of
$1,132 million resulting from more advertiser fees generated through our AdSense program. The increase was also related to an increase in traffic acquisition costs of $362 million from our distribution arrangements as a result of more traffic
directed to our websites, as well as more distribution fees paid. The decrease in traffic acquisition costs as a percentage of advertising revenues was primarily due to an increase in the proportion of advertising revenues from our websites compared
to our Google Network Members websites, more revenues realized from Google Network Members to whom we pay less revenue share, and, to a lesser extent, expiration of an AdSense arrangement under which we paid guaranteed minimum revenue share.
In addition, there was an increase in data center costs of $784 million, primarily resulting from the depreciation of additional information technology assets and data center buildings and an increase in labor, energy, and bandwidth costs, and an
increase in content acquisition costs of $236 million, primarily related to content displayed on YouTube, partially offset by a decrease in mobile phone costs.
36
We expect cost of revenues will increase in dollar amount and may increase as a percentage of total
revenues in 2013 and in future periods, primarily as a result of increases in traffic acquisition costs, data center costs, manufacturing and inventory-related costs, content acquisition costs, credit card and other transaction fees, and other
costs. Traffic acquisition costs as a percentage of advertising revenues may fluctuate in the future based on a number of factors, including the following:
|
|
|
The relative growth rates of revenues from our websites and from our Google Network Members websites. |
|
|
|
Whether we are able to enter into more AdSense arrangements that provide for lower revenue share obligations or whether increased competition for arrangements
with existing and potential Google Network Members results in less favorable revenue share arrangements. |
|
|
|
Whether we are able to continue to improve the monetization of traffic on our websites and our Google Network Members websites.
|
|
|
|
The relative growth rates of expenses associated with distribution arrangements and the related revenues generated, including whether we share with certain
existing and new distribution partners, including mobile distribution partners, proportionately more of the aggregate advertising fees that we earn from paid clicks derived from search queries these partners direct to our websites.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel responsible for
the research and development of new and existing products and services. We expense research and development costs as incurred.
Research
and development expenses increased $1,631 million from 2011 to 2012, which includes $710 million related to Motorola Mobile. The remaining increase of $921 million was primarily due to an increase in labor and facilities-related costs of $359
million, largely as a result of a 15% increase in research and development headcount, an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $213 million, an increase in depreciation and equipment-related expenses of $147 million, and an increase in
professional services expense of $66 million.
Research and development expenses increased $1,400 million from 2010 to 2011. This
increase was primarily due to an increase in labor and facilities-related costs of $875 million, largely as a result of a 23% increase in research and development headcount, including headcount from acquisitions, as well as an increase in
employee base salaries of approximately 10%. In addition, there was an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $200 million.
We
expect that research and development expenses will increase in dollar amount and may increase as a percentage of total revenues in 2013 and future periods because we expect to continue to invest in building the necessary employee and system
infrastructure required to support the development of new, and improve existing, products and services.

Sales and marketing expenses
increased $1,554 million from 2011 to 2012, which includes $678 million related to Motorola Mobile. The remaining increase of $876 million was primarily due to an increase in labor and facilities-related costs of $390 million, largely as a result of
a 14% increase in sales and marketing headcount, as well as an increase in advertising and promotional expenses of $288 million. In addition, there was an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $87 million.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $1,790 million from 2010 to 2011. This increase was primarily due to an increase in labor and
facilities-related costs of $787 million, largely as a result of a 36% increase in sales and marketing headcount, including headcount from acquisitions, as well as an increase in employee base salaries of approximately 10%. In addition, there was an
increase in advertising and promotional expenses of $700 million.
We expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase in dollar
amount and may increase as a percentage of total revenues in 2013 and future periods, as we expand our business globally, increase advertising and promotional expenditures in connection with new and existing products, and increase the level of
service we provide to our advertisers, Google Network Members, and other partners.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel and
facilities, and include costs related to our facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, and legal organizations, and fees for professional services. Professional services are principally comprised of outside legal, audit,
information technology consulting, and outsourcing services. General and administrative expenses also include amortization of certain acquired intangible assets.
General and administrative expenses increased $1,121 million from 2011 to 2012, which includes $364 million related to Motorola Mobile. The remaining increase of $757 million was primarily due to an increase in
amortization of acquired intangible assets of $274 million, an increase in professional services expense of $147 million, the majority of which was related to legal costs, an increase in labor and facilities-related costs of $122 million, primarily
as a result of a 11% increase in general and administrative headcount, as well as an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $89 million.
General and administrative expenses increased $762 million from 2010 to 2011. This increase was primarily due to an increase in labor and facilities-related costs of $350 million, primarily as a result of a 37%
increase in general and administrative headcount and an increase in employee base salaries of approximately 10%, as well as an increase in expense related to professional services of $260 million, the majority of which were related to consulting
services and legal costs. In addition, there was an increase in stock-based compensation of $116 million.
38
As we expand our business and incur additional expenses, we expect general and administrative
expenses will increase in dollar amount and may increase as a percentage of total revenues in 2013 and future periods.
Charge
Related to the Resolution of Department of Justice Investigation
In connection with a resolution of an investigation by the United
States Department of Justice into the use of Google advertising by certain advertisers, we accrued $500 million during the first quarter of 2011, which was paid in August 2011 upon final resolution of that matter.

Stock-based compensation increased $675 million from 2011 to 2012. This increase was primarily due to additional
stock awards issued to existing and new employees, awards issued in connection with the acquisition of Motorola, and acceleration of certain awards resulting from Motorola restructuring. Additionally, stock-based compensation expense for the
Motorola Home segment was included in net loss from discontinued operations.
Stock-based compensation increased $598 million from 2010
to 2011. This increase was largely due to additional stock awards issued to existing and new employees.
We estimate stock-based
compensation to be approximately $2.5 billion in 2013 and $2.7 billion thereafter. This estimate does not include expenses to be recognized related to employee stock awards that are granted after December 31, 2012 or non-employee stock
awards that have been or may be granted. In addition, to the extent forfeiture rates are different from what we have anticipated, stock-based compensation related to these awards will be different from our expectations.
Interest and Other Income, Net
Interest and other
income, net, increased $42 million from 2011 to 2012. This increase was primarily driven by a gain on divestiture of business of $188 million in 2012, an impairment charge related to equity investments of $110 million in 2011, partially offset by an
increase in foreign currency exchange loss of $152 million and a decrease in interest income of $99 million.
Interest and other income,
net increased $169 million from 2010 to 2011. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in interest income of $233 million due to an increase in our cash and investment balances and higher yields, as well as an increase in net realized gains
on sales of available-for-sale investments of $69 million, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $53 million primarily related to our long-term debt program. In addition, we recorded an impairment charge of $110 million related to
certain equity investments during the year ended December 31, 2011.
The costs of our foreign exchange hedging activities that we
recognized to interest and other income, net are primarily a function of the notional amount of the option and forward contracts and their related duration, the movement of the foreign exchange rates relative to the strike prices of the contracts,
as well as the volatility of the foreign exchange rates.
As we expand our international business, we believe costs related to hedging
activities under our foreign exchange risk management program may increase in dollar amount in 2013 and future periods.

Our provision for income taxes increased from 2011 to 2012, primarily as a result of increases in federal income
taxes, driven by higher taxable income year over year and expiration of the federal research and development credit, partially offset by proportionately more earnings realized in countries that have lower statutory tax rates. Our effective tax
rate decreased from 2011 to 2012, primarily as a result of proportionately more earnings realized in countries that have lower statutory tax rates as well as a discrete item related to an investigation by the Department of Justice recognized in
2011, which was not deductible for income tax purposes.
Our provision for income taxes increased from 2010 to 2011, primarily as a
result of increases in federal income taxes, driven by higher taxable income year over year, partially offset by proportionately more earnings realized in countries that have lower statutory tax rates. Our effective tax rate decreased from 2010
to 2011, primarily as a result of proportionately more earnings realized in countries that have lower statutory tax rates, a decrease in state income taxes, and an increase in federal research and development credits recognized in 2011, partially
offset by recognition of a charge related to the resolution of an investigation by the Department of Justice which is not deductible for tax purposes.
The federal research and development credit expired on December 31, 2011. On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was signed into law. Under this act, the federal research and
development credit was retroactively extended for amounts paid or incurred after December 31, 2011 and before January 1, 2014. The effects of these changes in the tax law will result in a tax benefit which will be recognized in the first
quarter of 2013, which is the quarter in which the law was enacted.
Our effective tax rate could fluctuate significantly on a quarterly
basis and could be adversely affected to the extent earnings are lower than anticipated in countries that have lower statutory rates and higher than anticipated in countries that have higher statutory rates. Our effective tax rate could also
fluctuate due to the net gains and losses recognized by legal entities on certain hedges and related hedged intercompany and other transactions under our foreign exchange risk management program, by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax
assets or liabilities, or by changes in tax laws, regulations, or accounting principles, as well as certain discrete items. In addition, we are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and
other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes.
See Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates below for additional information about our provision for income taxes.
A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to our effective tax rate is set forth in Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Net Loss from Discontinued Operations
In December 2012, we entered into an agreement with Arris and certain other persons providing for the disposition of the Motorola Home business for
total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion in cash and common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in 2013. As a result, the
40
following financial information of Motorola Home was presented as net loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

You should read the following tables presenting our quarterly results of operations in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form
10-K. We have prepared the unaudited information on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements. You should also keep in mind that our operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future
quarters or for a full year. Please note that previously reported quarters have been adjusted to show discontinued operations for the disposition of the Motorola Home business.
41
The following table presents our unaudited quarterly results of operations for the eight quarters
ended December 31, 2012. This table includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that we consider necessary for fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and operating results for the quarters
presented. Both seasonal fluctuations in internet usage and traditional retail seasonality have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our business. Internet usage generally slows during the summer months, and commercial queries typically
increase significantly in the fourth quarter of each year. These seasonal trends have caused and will likely continue to cause, fluctuations in our quarterly results, including fluctuations in sequential revenue growth rates.

At December 31, 2012, we had $48.1 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Cash
equivalents and marketable securities are comprised of time deposits, money market and other funds, including cash collateral received related to our securities lending program, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government and its agencies,
debt instruments issued by foreign governments, and municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.
As of December 31, 2012, $31.4 billion of the $48.1 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities was held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S.,
we would be required to
43
accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds. However, our intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate
them to fund our U.S. operations.
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, as well
as the cash flow that we generate from our operations. At December 31, 2012, we had unused letters of credit for approximately $89 million. We believe that our sources of funding will be sufficient to satisfy our currently anticipated cash
requirements through at least the next 12 months. Our liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for our products and services. In addition, we may make acquisitions or license products and technologies complementary to our
business and may need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing to provide for greater flexibility to fund any such acquisitions and licensing activities. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms
favorable to us.
We have a debt financing program of up to $3.0 billion through the issuance of commercial paper. Net proceeds
from this program are used for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2012, we had $2.5 billion of commercial paper outstanding recorded as short-term debt, with a weighted-average interest rate of 0.2% that mature at various dates
through 2013. Average commercial paper borrowings during the year were $2.2 billion and the maximum amount outstanding during the year was $2.7 billion. In conjunction with this program, we have a $3.0 billion revolving credit facility
expiring in July 2016. The interest rate for the credit facility is determined based on a formula using certain market rates. As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the financial covenant in the credit facility and no amounts were
outstanding.
In May 2011, we issued $3.0 billion of unsecured senior notes in three equal tranches, due in 2014, 2016,
and 2021, with stated interest rates of 1.25%, 2.125%, and 3.625%. The net proceeds from the sale of the notes were used to repay a portion of our outstanding commercial paper and for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2012,
the total carrying value and estimated fair value of these notes were $3.0 billion and $3.2 billion. The estimated fair value was based on quoted prices for our publicly-traded debt as of December 31, 2012. We are not subject to any financial
covenants under the notes.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities consist of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, including amortization, depreciation, deferred
income taxes, excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities, stock-based compensation expense, as well as the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
Cash provided by operating activities in 2012 was $16,619 million and consisted of net income of $10,737 million, adjustments for non-cash items of
$5,172 million, a gain on divestiture of business of $188 million and increase in cash from changes in working capital and other activities of $898 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $2,692 million of stock-based
compensation expense, $1,988 million of depreciation and amortization expense on property and equipment, $974 million of amortization of intangible and other assets, and $188 million of excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities,
partially offset by $266 million of deferred income taxes. In addition, the increase in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily consisted of an increase in income taxes, net, of $1,492 million including additional tax obligations
accrued, partially offset by an increase in the amount of estimated income taxes we paid during the year, an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $762 million, a decrease in inventories of $301 million, an increase accrued revenue
share of $299 million, and an increase in deferred revenue of $163 million. These changes were partially offset by an increase in prepaid revenue share, expenses, and other assets of $833 million including prepayments for certain content
arrangements, an increase of accounts receivable of $787 million due to growth in fees billed to our customers, and a decrease in accounts payable of $499 million due to the timing of invoice processing and payments.
Cash provided by operating activities in 2011 was $14,565 million and consisted of net income of $9,737 million, adjustments for non-cash items of
$4,198 million, and increase in cash from changes in working capital and other activities of $630 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $1,974 million of stock-
44
based compensation expense, $1,396 million of depreciation and amortization expense of property and equipment, $455 million of amortization of intangible and other assets, $343 million of
deferred income taxes, and $110
million related to impairment of equity investments. In addition, the increase in cash from changes in working capital
activities primarily consisted of an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $795 million, a net increase in income taxes payable and deferred income taxes of $731 million, an increase in accrued revenue share of $259 million, an
increase of $162 million in deferred revenue, and an increase of $101 million in accounts payable. These increases were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $1,156 million due to the growth in fees billed to our advertisers, and
an increase in prepaid revenue share, expenses and other assets of $262 million. The increase in income taxes payable and deferred income taxes reflected primarily additional tax obligations accrued, partially offset by estimated income taxes paid
during 2011. In addition, we paid $500 million related to the resolution of a Department of Justice investigation during the year.
Cash
provided by operating activities in 2010 was $11,081 million, and consisted of net income of $8,505 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $2,675 million, and decrease in cash from changes in working capital and other activities of $99 million.
Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of $1,376 million of stock-based compensation expense, $1,067 million of depreciation and amortization expense on property and equipment, and $329 million of amortization of intangible and other
assets, partially offset by $94 million of excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities. In addition, the decrease in cash from changes in working capital activities primarily consisted of an increase of $1,129 million in accounts
receivable due to the growth in fees billed to our advertisers and an increase of $414 million in prepaid revenue share, expenses and other assets. These increases were partially offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of
$745 million, an increase in accounts payable of $272 million, an increase in accrued revenue share of $214 million, an increase in deferred revenue of $111 million, and a net increase in income tax payable and deferred income taxes of $102 million,
which includes the same $94 million of excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities included under adjustments for non-cash items. The increase in accrued expense and other liabilities, accounts payable, accrued revenue share, and deferred
revenues are primarily a result of the growth in our business and headcount. The increase in net income taxes payable and deferred income taxes was primarily a result of additional tax obligations accrued, partially offset by the release of certain
tax reserves as a result of the settlement of our tax audits for our 2005 and 2006 tax years.
As we expand our business
internationally, we have offered payment terms to certain advertisers that are standard in their locales but longer than terms we would generally offer to our domestic advertisers. In addition, we continue to evaluate our Motorola restructuring
plan, and may incur additional charges, some of which may be significant. This may increase our working capital requirements and may have a negative effect on cash provided by our operating activities.
Cash Used In Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities in 2012 of $13,056 million was primarily attributable to cash used in acquisitions and other investments of $11,264 million, including $9,518 million net cash paid in connection
with the acquisition of Motorola, and capital expenditures of $3,273 million related primarily to our facilities, data centers, and related equipment. These decreases were partially offset by net maturities and sales of marketable securities of
$1,770 million. Also, in connection with our securities lending program, we returned cash collateral of $334 million. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further
information about our securities lending program.
Cash used in investing activities in 2011 of $19,041 million was primarily
attributable to net purchases of marketable securities of $12,926 million, capital expenditures of $3,438 million related principally to our facilities, data centers, and related equipment, and cash used in acquisitions and other investments of
$2,328 million, including $676 million paid in connection with the acquisition of ITA Software, Inc. Also, in connection with our securities lending program, we returned $354 million of cash collateral.
Cash used in investing activities in 2010 of $10,680 million was primarily attributable to net purchases of marketable securities of $6,886
million, capital expenditures of $4,018 million of which $1.8 billion was for the
45
purchase of an office building in New York City in December 2010, and remaining amounts related principally to our data centers and related equipment, and cash consideration used in acquisitions
and other investments of $1,067 million. Also, in connection with our securities lending program, we received $2,361 million of cash collateral which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements.
In order to manage expected increases in internet traffic, advertising transactions, and new products and services, and to support our overall
global business expansion, we expect to make significant investments in our systems, data centers, corporate facilities, information technology infrastructure, and employees in 2013 and thereafter. However, the amount of our capital expenditures has
fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate on a quarterly basis.
In addition, we expect to spend a significant amount of cash on
acquisitions and other investments from time to time. These acquisitions generally enhance the breadth and depth of our expertise in engineering and other functional areas, our technologies, and our product offerings.
In December 2012, we signed an agreement for the disposition of Motorola Home business for total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion in
cash and stock subject to certain adjustments. We expect the transaction to close in 2013.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities in 2012 of $1,229 million was primarily driven by net proceeds of $1,328 million from
short-term debt issued under our commercial paper program and excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities of $188 million. This was partially offset by net payments for stock-based award activities of $287 million.
Cash provided by financing activities in 2011 of $807 million was primarily driven by net proceeds of $726 million of debt issued and excess tax
benefits from stock-based award activities of $86 million.
Cash provided by financing activities in 2010 of $3,050 million was
primarily driven by $3,463 million of net cash proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper and a promissory note. This was partially offset by $801 million in stock repurchases in connection with our acquisitions of AdMob, Inc. and On2
Technologies, Inc., as well as net proceeds from stock-based award activities of $294 million, and excess tax benefits from stock-based award activities of $94 million.

The above table does not include future rental income of $649 million related to the leases that we assumed in
connection with our building purchases.
46
Operating Leases
We have entered into various non-cancelable operating lease agreements for certain of our offices, land, and data centers throughout the world with original lease periods expiring primarily between 2013 and 2063.
We are committed to pay a portion of the related operating expenses under certain of these lease agreements. These operating expenses are not included in the above table. Certain of these leases have free or escalating rent payment provisions. We
recognize rent expense under such leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain leases have adjustments for market provisions.
Purchase Obligations
Purchase obligations represent non-cancelable contractual obligations at
December 31, 2012. These contracts are primarily related to distribution arrangements, video and other content licensing revenue sharing arrangements, data center operations and facility build-outs, as well as purchase of inventory.
Long-term Debt Obligations
Long-term debt obligations represent principal and interest payments to be made over the life of our unsecured senior notes issued in May 2011.
Please see Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.
Other Long-Term Liabilities
Other long-term liabilities consist of cash obligations, primarily
the legal settlement with the Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers (AAP), asset retirement obligations, and milestone and royalty payments owed in connection with certain acquisitions and licensing agreements.
In addition to the amounts above, we had long-term taxes payable of $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2012 related to tax positions for which
the timing of the ultimate resolution is uncertain. At this time, we are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of payments in individual years beyond 12 months due to uncertainties in the timing of tax audit outcomes. As a
result, this amount is not included in the above table.
Off-Balance Sheet Entities
At December 31, 2012, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated
by the SEC, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources
that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP). In doing so, we have to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. In some cases, we could reasonably have used different accounting policies and estimates. In some cases, changes in the
accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from our estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our
financial condition or results of operations will be affected. We base our estimates on past experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. We refer to
accounting estimates of this type as critical accounting policies and estimates, which we discuss further below. We have reviewed our critical accounting policies and estimates with the audit committee of our board of directors.
47
Income Taxes
We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes.
Although we believe we have adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these
matters will not be different. We adjust these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than
the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to reserves that are considered
appropriate, as well as the related net interest.
Our effective tax rates have differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the
tax impact of foreign operations, state taxes, certain benefits realized related to stock-based award activities, and research and experimentation tax credits. The effective tax rates were 21.2%, 21.0%, and 19.4% for 2010, 2011, and 2012. Our future
effective tax rates could be adversely affected by earnings being lower than anticipated in countries that have lower statutory rates and higher than anticipated in countries that have higher statutory rates, the net gains and losses recognized by
legal entities on certain hedges and related hedged intercompany and other transactions under our foreign exchange risk management program, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets or liabilities, or changes in tax laws, regulations, or
accounting principles, as well as certain discrete items. In addition, we are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the IRS and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from
these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes.
Loss Contingencies
We are regularly subject to claims, suits, government investigations, and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust, intellectual
property, privacy, tax, labor and employment, commercial disputes, content generated by our users, goods and services offered by advertisers or publishers using our platforms, and other matters. Certain of these matters include speculative claims
for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. We record a liability when we believe that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a monthly basis, developments in our legal
matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and make adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such
matters. Until the final resolution of such matters, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amount recorded, and such amounts could be material. Should any of our estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, it could
have a material impact on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. See Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional
information regarding contingencies.
Business Combinations
We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on
their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed, management makes significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.
Critical estimates in
valuing certain intangible assets include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from customer relationships and acquired patents and developed technology; and discount rates. Managements estimates of fair value are based upon
assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.
48
Other estimates associated with the accounting for acquisitions may change as additional information
becomes available regarding the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as more fully discussed in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Impairment of Marketable and Non-Marketable Securities
We periodically review our marketable and non-marketable securities for impairment. If we conclude that any of these investments are impaired, we determine whether such impairment is other-than-temporary. Factors
we consider to make such determination include the duration and severity of the impairment, the reason for the decline in value and the potential recovery period and our intent to sell. For marketable debt securities, we also consider whether (1) it
is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, and (2) the amortized cost basis cannot be recovered as a result of credit losses. If any impairment is considered
other-than-temporary, we will write down the asset to its fair value and record the corresponding charge as interest and other income, net.
Prior period reclassification
Prior period balance related to inventories has been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
ITEM 7A. |
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates.
Foreign
Currency Exchange Risk
Economic Exposure
We transact business in various foreign currencies and have significant international revenues, as well as costs denominated in foreign currencies. This exposes us to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates. We purchase foreign exchange option contracts to reduce the volatility of cash flows related to forecasted revenues denominated in certain foreign currencies. The objective of the foreign exchange contracts is to better ensure that
the U.S. dollar-equivalent cash flows are not adversely affected by changes in the U.S. dollar/foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The gain on the effective portion of a cash flow hedge is initially
reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and subsequently reclassified into revenues when the hedged revenues are recorded or as interest and other income, net, if the hedged transaction becomes probable of not
occurring. The notional principal of these contracts was approximately $6.5 billion and $9.5 billion as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. These foreign exchange contracts have maturities of 36 months or less.
We considered the historical trends in currency exchange rates and determined that it was reasonably possible that changes in exchange rates of 20%
for our foreign currencies instruments could be experienced in the near term. If the U.S. dollar weakened by 20%, the amount recorded in AOCI before tax effect would have been approximately $132 million and $9 million lower at December 31, 2011
and December 31, 2012, and the total amount of expense recorded as interest and other income, net, would have been approximately $138 million and $140 million higher in the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. If the
U.S. dollar strengthened by 20%, the amount recorded in accumulated AOCI before tax effect would have been approximately $1.2 billion and $1.7 billion higher at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, and the total amount of expense
recorded as interest and other income, net, would have been approximately $202 million and $159 million higher in the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.
49
Transaction Exposure
Our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses is the result of certain net receivables due from our foreign subsidiaries and customers being denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency of the subsidiary, primarily the Euro and the British pound. Our foreign subsidiaries conduct their businesses in local currency. We have entered into foreign exchange contracts to offset the foreign exchange risk on certain monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the local currency of the subsidiary. The notional principal of foreign exchange contracts outstanding was $3.7 billion and $6.6 billion at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.
We considered the historical trends in currency exchange rates and determined that it was reasonably possible that adverse changes in
exchange rates of 20% for all currencies could be experienced in the near term. These changes would have resulted in an adverse impact on income before income taxes of approximately $27 million and $9 million at December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012. The adverse impact at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 is after consideration of the offsetting effect of approximately $503 million and $731 million from foreign exchange contracts in place for the
months of December 2011 and December 2012. These reasonably possible adverse changes in exchange rates of 20% were applied to total monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the local currencies at the balance sheet dates
to compute the adverse impact these changes would have had on our income before income taxes in the near term.
Interest Rate Risk
We invest our excess cash primarily in U.S. government and its agency securities, money market and other funds, corporate debt securities,
mortgage-backed securities, debt instruments issued by foreign governments, municipal securities, time deposits, and asset backed securities. By policy, we limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer.
Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning securities carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have
their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than predicted if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our income from investments may decrease in the
future. However, we use certain interest rate derivative contracts to hedge interest rate risk of our fixed income securities.
During
the second quarter of 2012, we began to hedge the variability of forecasted interest payments using forward-starting interest swaps. The total notional amount of these swaps was $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2012, with terms calling for us to
receive interest at a variable rate and to pay interest at a fixed rate. These forward-starting interest swaps effectively fix the benchmark interest rate on an anticipated debt issuance of $1.0 billion in 2014, and they will be terminated upon
issuance of the debt.
When entering into forward-starting interest rate swaps, we are subject to market risk with respect to changes in
the underlying benchmark interest rate that impacts the fair value of the forward-starting interest swaps. We manage market risk by matching the terms of the swaps with the critical terms of the expected debt issuance.
We considered the historical volatility of short-term interest rates and determined that it was reasonably possible that an adverse change of 100
basis points could be experienced in the near term. A hypothetical 1.00% (100 basis points) increase in interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in the fair values of our marketable securities of approximately $934 million and $1.1 billion
at December 31, 2011 and 2012, after taking into consideration the offsetting effect from interest rate derivative contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2012. A hypothetical 1.00% (100 basis points) decrease in interest rates
would have resulted in a decrease in the fair values of our forward-starting interest swaps of approximately $107 million at December 31, 2012.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Google Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)2. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility
of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Google
Inc. at December 31, 2011 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Google Inc.s
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated January 29, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Google Inc.
We have audited Google Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Google Inc.s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys
internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of
its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Google Inc.
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Google Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and 2012, and the
related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 of Google Inc. and our report dated January 29, 2013 expressed an
unqualified opinion thereon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Google Inc. and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
We were
incorporated in California in September 1998. We were re-incorporated in the State of Delaware in August 2003. We generate revenues primarily by delivering relevant, cost-effective online advertising in our Google segment. In addition, as a result
of our acquisition of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (Motorola) on May 22, 2012, we generate revenues from sales of mobile devices in our Motorola Mobile (Mobile) segment and digital set-top boxes in our Motorola Home (Home) segment. In
December 2012, we entered into an agreement to dispose Home, and the related financial results are presented as net loss from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Assets and liabilities of Motorola Home are not presented
as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets because they are not material.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Google Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and
disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounts receivable and sales allowances,
fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, inventory valuations, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We
base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
Revenue Recognition

our revenues by revenue source (in millions):

We recognize revenues when the services or products have been provided or delivered, the fees we
charge are fixed or determinable, we and our advertisers or other customers understand the specific nature and terms of the agreed upon transactions, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Google
Google AdWords is
our auction-based advertising program that enables advertisers to place text-based and display ads on our websites and our Google Network Members websites. Display advertising comprises the videos, text, images, and other interactive ads that
run across the web on computers and mobile devices, including smart phones and handheld computers such as netbooks and tablets. Most of our customers pay us on a cost-per-click basis, which means that an advertiser pays us only when a user clicks on
one of its ads. We also offer advertising on a cost-per-impression basis that enables advertisers to pay us based on the number of times their ads display on our websites and our Google Network Members websites as specified by the advertisers.
Google AdSense refers to the online programs through which we distribute our advertisers AdWords ads for display on our Google
Network Members websites.
We recognize as revenues the fees charged to advertisers each time a user clicks on one of the ads that
appears next to the search results or content on our websites or our Google Network Members websites. For those advertisers using our cost-per-impression pricing, we recognize as revenues the fees charged to advertisers each time their ads are
displayed on our websites or our Google Network Members websites. We report our Google AdSense revenues on a gross basis principally because we are the primary obligor to our advertisers.
We record deferred revenues upon invoicing or when cash payments are received in advance of our performance in the underlying agreement on the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Motorola
For hardware product sales, where we sell directly to end customers or through distribution channels, revenue recognition generally occurs when products have been shipped, risk of loss has transferred to the
customer, objective evidence exists that customer acceptance provisions have been met, no significant obligations remain and allowances for discounts, price protection, returns and customer incentives can be reasonably and reliably estimated.
Recorded revenues are reduced by these allowances. Where these allowances cannot be reasonably and reliably estimated, we recognize revenue at the time the product sells through the distribution channel to the end customer.
For arrangements that include multiple deliverables, primarily for products that contain software essential to the hardware products
functionality and services, we allocate revenue to each unit of accounting based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, we use a hierarchy to determine the selling prices to be used for allocating revenue: (i) vendor-specific
objective evidence of fair value (VSOE), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price, and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (ESP). VSOE generally exists only when we sell the deliverable separately and is the price actually charged
by us for that deliverable. ESPs reflect our best estimates of what the selling prices of elements would be if they were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis.
Revenues from Home are included in net loss from discontinued operations.
Cost of Revenues
Google
Cost of revenues
consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs consist of amounts ultimately paid to our Google Network members under AdSense arrangements and to certain other partners (our distribution partners) who distribute our
toolbar and other products (collectively referred to as access points) or
60
otherwise direct search queries to our website (collectively referred to as distribution arrangements). These amounts are primarily based on the revenue share and fixed fee arrangements with our
Google Network Members and distribution partners.
Certain distribution arrangements require us to pay our partners based on a fee per
access point delivered and not exclusivelyor at allbased on revenue share. These fees are non-refundable. Further, these arrangements are terminable at will, although under the terms of certain contracts we or our distribution partners
may be subject to penalties in the event of early termination. We recognize fees under these arrangements over the estimated useful lives of the access points (approximately two years) to the extent we can reasonably estimate those lives and they
are longer than one year, or based on any contractual revenue share, if greater. Otherwise, the fees are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful life of the access points is based on the historical average period of time they generate
traffic and revenues. Further, we review the access points for impairment by distribution partner, type, and geography, and we have not made any impairment to date.
Cost of revenues also includes the expenses associated with the operation of our data centers, including depreciation, labor, energy, and bandwidth costs, credit card and other transaction fees related to
processing customer transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well as content acquisition costs. We have entered into arrangements with certain content providers under which we distribute or license their video and other content.
In a number of these arrangements, we display ads on the pages of our web sites from which the content is viewed and share most of the fees these ads generate with the content providers. To the extent we are obligated to make guaranteed minimum
revenue share payments to our content providers, we recognize as content acquisition costs the contractual revenue share amount or the minimum guarantee on a straight-line basis, whichever is greater, over the terms of the agreements.
Prepaid revenue share and distribution fees are included in prepaid revenue share, expenses, and other assets on the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets.
Motorola
Cost of revenues from our Motorola business related to delivered hardware, including estimated warranty costs, are recognized at the time of sale. Cost of revenues from Home are included in net loss from
discontinued operations.
Stock-based Compensation
We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options on the dates of grant. Restricted stock units (RSUs) are measured based on the fair market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. Shares are issued on the vesting dates net of the minimum statutory tax withholding
requirements to be paid by us on behalf of our employees. As a result, the actual number of shares issued will be fewer than the actual number of RSUs outstanding. Furthermore, we record the liability for withholding amounts to be paid by us as a
reduction to additional paid-in capital when paid. Also, we recognize stock-based compensation using the straight-line method.
We
include as part of cash flows from financing activities the benefits of tax deductions in excess of the tax-effected compensation of the related stock-based awards for options exercised and RSUs vested during the period. During the years ended
December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012, the amount of cash received from the exercise of stock options was $656 million, $621 million, and $736 million, and the total direct tax benefit realized, including
the excess tax benefit, from stock-based award activities was $355 million, $451 million, and $747 million. We have elected to account for the indirect effects of stock-based awardsprimarily the research and development tax creditthrough
the Consolidated Statements of Income.
For the years ended December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31,
2012, we recognized stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefits of $1,376 million and $314 million, $1,974 million and $413 million, and $2,649 million and $591 million. Additionally, net loss from discontinued operations for the year
ended December 31, 2012 includes stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefits of $43 million and $11 million.

Certain Risks and Concentrations
Our revenues are primarily derived from online advertising, the market for which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. In addition, our revenues are generated from a multitude of vertical market segments in
countries around the world. Significant changes in this industry or changes in customer buying or advertiser spending behavior could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, for our Motorola business, nearly all of our Motorola products
(other than some prototypes) are manufactured outside the U.S., primarily in China, Taiwan and Brazil.
Financial instruments that
potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents, marketable securities, foreign exchange contracts, and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents and marketable securities consist primarily of time
deposits, money market and other funds, including cash collateral received related to our securities lending program, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government and its agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign governments and
municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. Foreign exchange contracts are transacted with various financial institutions with high credit standing. Accounts receivable are
typically unsecured and are derived from revenues earned from customers located around the world. In 2010, 2011, and 2012, we generated approximately 48%, 46%, and 47% of our revenues from customers based in the U.S., with the majority of customers
outside of the U.S. located in Europe and Japan. Many of our Google Network Members are in the internet industry. We perform ongoing evaluations to determine customer credit and we limit the amount of credit we extend, but generally we do not
require collateral from our customers. We maintain reserves for estimated credit losses and these losses have generally been within our expectations.
No individual customer or groups of affiliated customers represented more than 10% of our revenues in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our financial assets and financial liabilities that include cash
equivalents, marketable securities, and foreign currency and interest rate derivative contracts are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. We measure certain other assets including our non-marketable equity securities at fair
value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. Our other current financial assets and our other current financial liabilities have fair values that approximate their carrying value and are therefore not
recorded at fair value.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities
We invest our excess cash primarily in time deposits, money market and other funds, including cash collateral received related to our securities lending program, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S.
government and its agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign governments and municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities.
We classify all highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase as cash equivalents and all highly
liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months as marketable securities.
We determine the appropriate
classification of our investments in marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluate such designation at each balance sheet date. We have classified and accounted for our marketable securities as available-for-sale. We may or may not
hold securities with stated maturities greater than 12 months until maturity. After consideration of our risk versus reward objectives, as well as our liquidity requirements, we may sell these securities prior to their stated maturities. As we view
these securities as available to support current operations, we classify securities with maturities beyond 12 months as current assets under the caption marketable securities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. We carry these securities
at fair value, and report the unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, as a component of stockholders equity, except for unrealized losses determined to be other-than-temporary, which we record as interest and other income, net. We determine
any realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities on a specific identification method, and we record such gains and losses as a component of interest and other income, net.
62
Non-Marketable Equity Securities
We have accounted for non-marketable equity securities either under the equity or cost method. Investments through which we exercise significant influence but do not have control over the investee are accounted for
under the equity method. Investments through which we are not able to exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for under the cost method.
Impairment of Marketable and Non-Marketable Securities
We periodically review our marketable and
non-marketable securities for impairment. If we conclude that any of these investments are impaired, we determine whether such impairment is other-than-temporary. Factors we consider to make such determination include the duration and severity of
the impairment, the reason for the decline in value and the potential recovery period and our intent to sell. For marketable debt securities, we also consider whether (1) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security
before recovery of its amortized cost basis, and (2) the amortized cost basis cannot be recovered as a result of credit losses. If any impairment is considered other-than-temporary, we will write down the asset to its fair value and record the
corresponding charge as interest and other income, net.
Accounts Receivable
We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts
receivable by amounts due by customers which are past due to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers
based on ongoing credit evaluations. We also maintain a sales allowance to reserve for potential credits issued to customers. We determine the amount of the reserve based on historical credits issued.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost or market, computed using the first-in, first-out method.
Property and Equipment
We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally two to five years. We depreciate buildings over periods up to 25 years. We amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the
assets. Construction in progress is related to the construction or development of property (including land) and equipment that have not yet been placed in service for our intended use. Depreciation for equipment commences once it is placed in
service and depreciation for buildings and leasehold improvements commences once they are ready for our intended use. Land is not depreciated.
Software
Development Costs
We expense software development costs, including costs to develop software products or the software component of
products to be marketed to external users, before technological feasibility of such products is reached. We have determined that technological feasibility was reached shortly before the release of those products and as a result, the development
costs incurred after the establishment of technological feasibility and before the release of those products were not material, and accordingly, were expensed as incurred. Software development costs also include costs to develop software programs to
be used solely to meet our internal needs. The costs we incurred during the application development stage for these software programs were not material in the years presented.
63
Business Combinations
We include the results of operations of the businesses that we acquire as of the respective dates of acquisition. We allocate the fair value of the purchase price of our acquisitions to the tangible assets
acquired, and liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
Long-Lived Assets Including Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets
We review property and equipment, long-term prepayments and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. We measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We have made no material adjustments to our long-lived assets in any of the years presented. In addition, we test our goodwill for
impairment at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that this asset may be impaired. We found no goodwill impairment in any of the years presented.
Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We amortize our acquired intangible assets on a
straight-line basis with definite lives over periods ranging from one to 12 years.
Income Taxes
We recognize income taxes under the liability method. We recognize deferred income taxes for differences between the financial reporting and tax
bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which differences are expected to reverse. We recognize the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
Foreign Currency
Generally, the functional currency of our international subsidiaries is the local currency. We translate the financial statements of these
subsidiaries to U.S. dollars using month-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for revenues, costs, and expenses. We record translation gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income as a
component of stockholders equity. We recorded $124 million of net translation losses in 2010, $107 million of net translation losses in 2011, and $75 million of net translation gains in 2012. We record net gains and losses resulting from
foreign exchange transactions as a component of foreign currency exchange losses in interest and other income, net. These gains and losses are net of those recognized on foreign exchange contracts. We recorded $29 million of net losses in 2010, $38
million of net losses in 2011, and $78 million of net losses in 2012.
Advertising and Promotional Expenses
We expense advertising and promotional costs in the period in which they are incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2011 and
2012, advertising and promotional expenses totaled approximately $772 million, $1,544 million, and $2,332 million.
Prior Period Reclassification
Prior period balance related to inventories has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Note 2. Net Income Per Share of Class A and Class B Common Stock
We compute net income per share of Class A and Class B common stock using the two-class method. Basic net income per share
is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding
during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options, warrants issued under the TSO program, and restricted stock units. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units is reflected in
diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The computation of the diluted net income per share of Class A common stock assumes the conversion of Class B common stock, while the diluted net income per share of Class
B common stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.
The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the
holders of our Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Further, there are a number of safeguards built into our certificate of incorporation, as well as Delaware law, which preclude our board of directors
from declaring or paying unequal per share dividends on our Class A and Class B common stock. Specifically, Delaware law provides that amendments to our certificate of incorporation which would have the effect of adversely altering the rights,
powers, or preferences of a given class of stock (in this case the right of our Class A common stock to receive an equal dividend to any declared on our Class B common stock) must be approved by the class of stock adversely affected by the
proposed amendment. In addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that before any such amendment may be put to a stockholder vote, it must be approved by the unanimous consent of our board of directors. As a result, the undistributed
earnings for each year are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A and Class B common shares as if the earnings for the year had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the
undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis. Further, as we assume the conversion of Class B common stock in the computation of the diluted net income per share of Class A common stock, the undistributed earnings are equal to
net income for that computation.

The net income per share amounts are the same for Class A and Class B common stock because the
holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.
Note 3. Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
We
measure our cash equivalents, marketable securities, and foreign currency and interest rate derivative contracts at fair value. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier
fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2Include other inputs that are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based
valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be derived from observable market data. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using
market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and credit ratings.
Level 3Unobservable
inputs that are supported by little or no market activities.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of
observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Based on the fair value hierarchy, we classify
our cash equivalents and marketable securities within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because we value our cash equivalents and marketable securities using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable
inputs. We classify our foreign currency and interest rate derivative contracts primarily within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments.

The balances at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 were cash collateral received in connection with our securities lending program, which was
invested in reverse repurchase agreements maturing within three months. See below for further discussion on this program. |
We determine realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities on a specific identification method. We recognized gross realized gains of $381 million and $383 million for the years ended
December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. We recognized gross realized losses of $127 million and $101 million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. In 2011, we also recorded an other-than-temporary
impairment charge of $88 million related to our investment in Clearwire Corporation. We reflect these gains and losses as a component of interest and other income, net, in our accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our investments in marketable securities, excluding marketable equity securities,
designated as available-for-sale and classified by the contractual maturity date of the securities (in millions):

Securities Lending Program
From time to time, we enter into securities lending agreements with financial institutions to enhance investment income. We loan selected securities
which are secured by collateral in the form of cash or securities. Cash collateral is invested in reverse repurchase agreements. We classify loaned securities as cash equivalents or marketable securities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets. We record the cash collateral as an asset with a corresponding liability. We classify reverse repurchase agreements maturing within three months as cash equivalents and those longer than three months as receivable under reverse
repurchase agreements on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. For lending agreements collateralized by securities, we do not record an asset or liability as we are not permitted to sell or repledge the associated collateral.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We enter into
foreign currency contracts with financial institutions to reduce the risk that our cash flows and earnings will be adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We use certain interest rate derivative contracts to hedge interest
rate exposures on our fixed income securities and our anticipated debt issuance. Our program is not designated for trading or speculative purposes.
We enter into master netting arrangements, which reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same company. To further reduce credit risk, we enter into collateral security arrangements
that provide for collateral to be received when the net fair value of certain financial instruments fluctuates from contractually established thresholds. We present our derivative assets and derivative liabilities at their gross fair values. At
December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, we received cash collateral related to the derivative instruments under our collateral security arrangements of $113 million and $43 million, which are recorded as accrued expenses and other current
liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. We record changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of the derivatives in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income as interest and other income, net, as part of revenues, or
to accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Cash Flow Hedges
We use options designated as cash flow hedges to hedge certain forecasted revenue transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
The notional principal of these contracts was approximately $6.5 billion and $9.5 billion as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. These foreign exchange contracts have maturities of 36 months or less.
During the second quarter of 2012, we began to hedge the variability of forecasted interest payments on an anticipated debt issuance using
forward-starting interest swaps. The total notional amount of these forward-starting interest swaps was $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2012 with terms calling for us to receive interest at a variable rate and to pay interest at a fixed rate.
These forward-starting interest swaps effectively fix the benchmark interest rate on an anticipated debt issuance of $1.0 billion in 2014, and they will be terminated upon issuance of the debt.
We initially report any gain or loss on the effective portion of a cash flow hedge as a component of AOCI and subsequently reclassify to revenues
or interest expense when the hedged transactions are recorded. If the hedged transactions become probable of not occurring, the corresponding amounts in AOCI would be reclassified to interest and other income, net. Further, we exclude the change in
the time value of the options from our assessment of hedge effectiveness. We record the premium paid or time value of an option on the date of purchase as an asset. Thereafter, we recognize any change to this time value in interest and other income,
net.
70
As of December 31, 2012, the effective portion of our cash flow hedges before tax effect was $11
million, $10 million of which is expected to be reclassified from AOCI to revenues within the next 12 months.
Fair Value Hedges
We use forward contracts designated as fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency risks for our investments denominated in
currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in interest and other income, net, along with the offsetting losses and gains of the related hedged items. We exclude changes in the time value for forward
contracts from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and recognize them in interest and other income, net. The notional principal of these contracts was $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.
Other Derivatives
Other derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consist of forward and option contracts that we use to hedge intercompany transactions and
other monetary assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the local currency of a subsidiary. We recognize gains and losses on these contracts as well as the related costs in interest and other income, net, along with the gains and
losses of the related hedged items. The notional principal of foreign exchange contracts outstanding was $3.7 billion and $6.6 billion at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.
We also use exchange-traded interest rate futures contracts and To Be Announced (TBA) forward purchase commitments of mortgage-backed
assets to hedge interest rate risks on certain fixed income securities. The TBA contracts meet the definition of derivative instruments in cases where physical delivery of the assets is not taken at the earliest available delivery date. Our interest
rate futures and TBA contracts (together interest rate contracts) are not designated as hedging instruments. We recognize gains and losses on these contracts as well as the related costs in interest and other income, net. The gains and losses are
generally economically offset by unrealized gains and losses in the underlying available-for-sale securities, which are recorded as a component of AOCI until the securities are sold or other-than-temporarily impaired, at which time the amounts are
moved from AOCI into interest and other income, net. The total notional amounts of interest rate contracts outstanding were $100 million and $25 million at December 31, 2011 and December, 31, 2012.

Note 4. Debt
Short-Term Debt
We have a debt
financing program of up to $3.0 billion through the issuance of commercial paper. Net proceeds from this program are used for general corporate purposes. At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, we had $750 million and $2.5 billion of
outstanding commercial paper recorded as short-term debt with weighted-average interest rates of 0.1% and 0.2%. In conjunction with this program, we have a $3.0 billion revolving credit facility expiring in July 2016. The interest rate for the
credit facility is determined based on a formula using certain market rates. At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the financial covenant in the credit facility, and no amounts were outstanding under the
credit facility at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.
Additionally, as of December 31, 2011, we had a $468 million
secured promissory note outstanding recorded as short-term debt, with an interest rate of 1.0% that matured and was paid in December 2012.
The estimated fair value of the short-term debt approximated its carrying value at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.

Long-Term Debt
In May 2011, we issued $3.0 billion of unsecured senior notes in three tranches as described in the table below (collectively, the Notes) (in millions):

The effective interest yields of the 2014, 2016, and 2021 Notes were 1.258%, 2.241%, and 3.734%, respectively.
Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 19 and November 19 of each year. We may redeem the Notes at any time in whole or from time to time in part at specified redemption prices. We are not subject to any financial
covenants under the Notes. We used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes for general corporate purposes. The total estimated fair value of the Notes was approximately $3.2 billion at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. The
fair value of the Notes was determined based on observable market prices of identical instruments in markets that are not active and was categorized accordingly as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
At December 31, 2012, future principal payments for the Notes were as follows (in millions):

Note 6. Acquisitions
On May 22, 2012, we completed our acquisition of Motorola, a provider of innovative technologies, products and services that
enable a range of mobile and wireline digital communication, information and entertainment experiences. The acquisition is expected to protect and advance our Android ecosystem and enhance competition in mobile computing. Under the transaction, we
acquired all outstanding common shares of Motorola for $40 per share and all vested Motorola stock options and restricted stock units, for a total purchase price of approximately $12.4 billion in cash. In addition, we assumed $401 million of
unvested Motorola stock options and restricted stock units, which will be recorded as stock-based compensation expense over the remaining service periods. Transaction costs were approximately $50 million, which were recorded as general and
administrative expense as incurred.
The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based upon a preliminary valuation
and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. The primary areas of the purchase price that are not yet finalized are related to certain legal matters, income taxes, and residual goodwill. Of the $12.4 billion
total purchase price, $2.9 billion was cash acquired, $5.5 billion was attributed to patents and developed technology, $2.5 billion to goodwill, $0.7 billion to customer relationships, and $0.8 billion to other net assets acquired.
The goodwill of $2.5 billion is primarily attributed to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. Goodwill is not expected to be
deductible for tax purposes.

consummated on January 1, 2011, is presented as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

These pro forma results are based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are reasonable. They are not
necessarily indicative of our consolidated results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had we been a combined company during the periods presented. The pro forma results include adjustments primarily
related to amortization of acquired intangible assets, severance and benefit arrangements in connection with the acquisition, and stock-based compensation expenses for assumed unvested stock options and restricted stock units.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, we completed 52 other acquisitions and purchases of intangible assets for a total cash consideration
of approximately $1,171 million, of which $733 million was attributed to goodwill, $462 million to acquired intangible assets, and $24 million to net liabilities assumed. These acquisitions generally enhance the breadth and depth of our expertise in
engineering and other functional areas, our technologies, and our product offerings. The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes is approximately $29 million.
Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions have not been presented because they are not material to the consolidated results of
operations, either individually or in the aggregate.
For all acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2012,
patents and developed technology have a weighted-average useful life of 8.9 years, customer relationships have a weighted-average useful life of 7.4 years and trade names and other have a weighted-average useful life of 9.0 years.

Patents and developed technology, customer relationships, and trade names and other have weighted-average useful
lives from the date of purchase of 8.1 years, 6.6 years, and 5.8 years. Amortization expense of acquisition-related intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2011, and 2012 was $314 million, $441 million, and $884 million. For
the year ended December 31, 2012, net loss from discontinued operations included $70 million of amortization expense related to Home intangible assets.

Note 8. Discontinued Operations
In December 2012, we entered into an agreement with Arris Group, Inc. and certain other persons providing for the disposition of
the Motorola Home business for total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion in cash and common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in 2013. Financial results of the Motorola Home business are presented
as net loss from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

the Motorola Home business for the period from May 22, 2012 to December 31, 2012 (in millions):

Note 9. Restructuring charges
Subsequent to our acquisition of Motorola in May 2012, we initiated a restructuring plan primarily in our Mobile segment to
reduce workforce, reorganize management structure, close, consolidate and dispose certain facilities, as well as simplify our mobile product portfolio. These changes are designed to return Motorolas Mobile segment to profitability. For the
year ended December 31, 2012, activities related to restructuring charges were summarized as below (in millions):

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases
We have entered
into various non-cancelable operating lease agreements for certain of our offices, land, and data centers throughout the world with original lease periods expiring primarily between 2013 and 2063. We are committed to pay a portion of the actual
operating expenses under certain of these lease agreements. These operating expenses are not included in the table below. Certain of these arrangements have free or escalating rent payment provisions. We recognize rent expense under such
arrangements on a straight-line basis.
At December 31, 2012, future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases, net of
sublease income amounts, were as follows over each of the next five years and thereafter (in millions):

Certain leases have adjustments for market provisions. Amounts in the above table represent our best estimates of
future payments to be made under these leases. In addition, the above table does not include future rental income of $649 million related to the leases that we assumed in connection with our building purchases. Rent expense under operating leases,
including co-location arrangements, was $293 million, $380 million, and $448 million in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Purchase Obligations
At December 31, 2012, we had $2.1 billion of other non-cancelable contractual obligations, primarily related to certain of our distribution
arrangements, video and other content licensing revenue sharing arrangements, as well as data center operations and facility build-outs.
Letters of
Credit
At December 31, 2012, we had unused letters of credit for $89 million, of which $45 million related to our Mobile segment.
Indemnifications
In the normal course
of business to facilitate transactions in our services and products, we indemnify certain parties, including advertisers, Google Network Members, and lessors with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold certain parties harmless against
losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. Several of these agreements limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and
the amount of the claim. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to our agents.
It is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the unique facts and
circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Additionally, we have a limited history of prior indemnification claims and the payments we have made under such
79
agreements have not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, or financial position. However, to the extent that valid indemnification claims arise in the future,
future payments by us could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in a particular period. As of December 31, 2012, we did not have any material indemnification claims that were
probable or reasonably possible.
Legal Matters
Antitrust Investigations
In June 2011, we received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the
U.S. Federal Trade Commissions (FTC) Bureau of Competition and a subpoena from the FTCs Bureau of Consumer Protection relating to a review by the FTC of our business practices, including search and advertising. In June 2012, we also
received a CID and a subpoena duces tecum from the FTCs Bureau of Competition seeking documents and information broadly related to Motorolas licensing practices for standards-essential patents and use of standards-essential patents in
litigation. In January 2013, the FTC closed its investigations into our business practices, including search and advertising. In connection with the closing of the investigation, we have voluntarily agreed to make certain product changes. In
addition, we and Motorola have entered into a consent order with the FTC setting forth certain guidelines on our use of standards-essential patents in litigation.
State attorneys general from the states of Texas, Ohio, and Mississippi have issued similar CIDs relating to our business practices. We are cooperating with the state attorneys general and are responding to their
information requests on an ongoing basis.
The European Commissions (EC) Directorate General for Competition has also opened an
investigation into various antitrust-related complaints against us. Since February 2010, we have received a number of notifications from the EC about antitrust complaints filed against us. On November 30, 2010, the EC formally opened
proceedings against us. We believe we have adequately responded to all of the allegations made against us. We continue to cooperate with the EC and are pursuing a potential resolution that would avoid a finding of infringement and a fine. The EC has
also opened an investigation into Motorolas licensing practices for standards-essential patents and use of standards-essential patents in litigation on the basis of complaints brought by Microsoft and Apple. We are cooperating with the EC and
responding to the information requests on an ongoing basis.
The Comision Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia in Argentina, the
Competition Commission of India, and the Korea Fair Trade Commission in South Korea have also opened investigations into certain business practices.
EPA Investigation
In February 2009, we learned of a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
investigation into an alleged release of refrigerant at one of our smaller data center facilities, which we acquired from DoubleClick, and the accuracy of related statements and records. We are cooperating with the EPA and have provided documents
and other materials.
Patent and Intellectual Property Claims
We have had patent, copyright, and trademark infringement lawsuits filed against us claiming that certain of our products, services, and
technologies, including Android, Google Search, Google AdWords, Google AdSense, Google Books, Google News, Google Image Search, Google Chrome, Google Talk, Google Voice, Motorola devices and YouTube, infringe the intellectual property rights of
others. Adverse results in these lawsuits may include awards of substantial monetary damages, costly royalty or licensing agreements, or orders preventing us from offering certain features, functionalities, products, or services, and may also cause
us to change our business
80
practices, and require development of non-infringing products or technologies, which could result in a loss of revenues for us and otherwise harm our business. In addition, the U.S. International
Trade Commission (ITC) has increasingly become an important forum to litigate intellectual property disputes because an ultimate loss for a company or its suppliers in an ITC action could result in a prohibition on importing infringing products into
the U.S. Since the U.S. is an important market, a prohibition on importation could have an adverse effect on us, including preventing us from importing many important products into the U.S. or necessitating workarounds that may limit certain
features of our products.
Furthermore, many of our agreements with our customers and partners require us to indemnify them for certain
intellectual property infringement claims against them, which would increase our costs as a result of defending such claims, and may require that we pay significant damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. Our customers and
partners may discontinue the use of our products, services, and technologies, as a result of injunctions or otherwise, which could result in loss of revenues and adversely impact our business.
In December 2012, we announced that Motorola Mobility had entered into an agreement with Arris Group, Inc. and certain other persons providing for
the disposition of Motorolas Home business for total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion, subject to certain adjustments. Under the agreement, we have agreed to indemnify Arris Group for potential liability from certain intellectual
property infringement litigation, including, among others, a patent infringement claim brought by TiVo relating to certain digital video recording equipment sold by Motorola Mobility.
Other
We are also regularly
subject to claims, suits, government investigations, and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust (such as the pending investigations by the FTC and the EC described above), intellectual property, privacy, tax, labor and employment,
commercial disputes, content generated by our users, goods and services offered by advertisers or publishers using our platforms, personal injury, consumer protection, and other matters. Such claims, suits, government investigations, and other
proceedings could result in fines, civil or criminal penalties, or other adverse consequences.
Certain of our outstanding legal matters
include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. We record a liability when we believe that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a monthly
basis, developments in our legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and make adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being and the estimated
amount of a loss related to such matters.
With respect to our outstanding legal matters, based on our current knowledge, we believe
that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of
such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
We expense legal fees in the period in which
they are incurred.
Income Taxes
We are
under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and various other tax authorities. We have reserved for potential adjustments to our provision for income taxes that may result from examinations by, or any negotiated agreements with, these tax
authorities, and we believe that the final outcome of these examinations or agreements will not have a material effect on our results of operations. If events occur which indicate payment of these amounts is unnecessary, the reversal of the
liabilities would result in the recognition of tax benefits in the period we determine the liabilities are no longer necessary. If our estimates of the federal, state, and foreign income tax liabilities are less than the ultimate assessment, a
further charge to expense would result.

Note 12. Stockholders Equity
Convertible Preferred Stock
Our
board of directors has authorized 100,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, $0.001 par value, issuable in series. At December 31, 2011 and 2012, there were no shares issued or outstanding.
Class A and Class B Common Stock
Our board of
directors has authorized two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B. At December 31, 2012, there were 9,000,000,000 and 3,000,000,000 shares authorized and there were 267,448,281 and 62,530,474 shares outstanding of Class A and
Class B common stock, $0.001 par value. The rights of the holders of Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B
common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share. Shares of Class B common stock may be converted at any time at the option of the stockholder and automatically convert upon sale or transfer to Class A common stock. We refer to Class A and
Class B common stock as common stock throughout the notes to these financial statements, unless otherwise noted.
Stock Dividend
In April 2012, our board of directors approved amendments to our certificate of incorporation that would, among other things, create a new class of
non-voting capital stock (Class C capital stock). The amendments authorized 3 billion shares of Class C capital stock and also increased the authorized shares of Class A common stock from 6 billion to 9 billion. The amendments are
reflected in our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (New Charter), the adoption of which was approved by stockholders at our 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 21, 2012. We have announced the intention
of our board of directors to consider a distribution of shares of the Class C capital stock as a dividend to our holders of Class A and Class B common stock (Dividend). The Class C capital stock will have no voting rights, except
as required by applicable law. Except as expressly provided in the New Charter, shares of Class C capital stock will have the same rights and privileges and rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all other respects to the shares of
Class A common stock and Class B common stock as to all matters.
The par value per share of our shares of Class A common
stock and Class B common stock will remain unchanged at $0.001 per share after the Dividend. On the effective date of the Dividend, there will be a transfer between retained earnings and common stock and the amount transferred will be equal to
the $0.001 par value of the Class C capital stock that is issued. We will give retroactive effect to prior period share and per share amounts in our consolidated financial statements for the effect of the Dividend, such that prior periods are
comparable to current period presentation.
Stock Plans
We maintain the 1998 Stock Plan, the 2000 Stock Plan, the 2003 Stock Plan, the 2003 Stock Plan (No. 2), the 2003 Stock Plan (No. 3), the 2004 Stock Plan, and plans assumed through acquisitions, all of which
are collectively referred to as the Stock Plans. Under our Stock Plans, incentive and non-qualified stock options or rights to purchase common stock may be granted to eligible participants. Options are generally granted for a term of 10
years. Under the Stock Plans, we have also issued RSUs. An RSU award is an agreement to issue shares of our stock at the time the award vests. Except for options granted pursuant to our stock option exchange program completed in March 2009 (the
Exchange), options granted and RSUs issued to participants under the Stock Plans generally vest over four years contingent upon employment or service with us on the vesting date.
At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, there were 21,794,492 and 15,833,050 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance
under our Stock Plans.
82
We estimated the fair value of each option award on the date of grant using the BSM option pricing
model. Our assumptions about stock-price volatility have been based exclusively on the implied volatilities of publicly traded options to buy our stock with contractual terms closest to the expected life of options granted to our employees. We
estimate the expected term based upon the historical exercise behavior of our employees. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the stock options granted in the
periods presented:

The above tables include approximately 1.6 million warrants held by selected financial institutions that were
options purchased from employees under our TSO program, with a weighted-average exercise price of $363.66 and a weighted-average remaining life of 1.3 years.
During 2012, the number of shares underlying TSOs sold to selected financial institutions under the TSO program was 1,226,983 at a total value of $365 million, or an average of $297.28 per share, including an
average premium of $9.35 per share. The premium is calculated as the difference between (a) the sale price of the TSO and (b) the intrinsic value of the TSO, which we define as the excess, if any, of the price of our Class A common
stock at the time of the sale over the exercise price of the TSO.
The total grant date fair value of stock options vested during 2010,
2011, and 2012 was $690 million, $561 million, and $489 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of all options and warrants exercised during 2010, 2011, and 2012 was $794 million, $674 million, and $827 million. These amounts do not include the
aggregate sales price of options sold under our TSO program.
As of December 31, 2012, there was $386 million of unrecognized
compensation cost related to outstanding employee stock options. This amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years. To the extent the actual forfeiture rate is different from what we have estimated, stock-based
compensation related to these awards will be different from our expectations.

RSUs expected to vest reflect an estimated forfeiture rate. |
As of December 31, 2012, there was $4.8 billion of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested employee RSUs. This amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. To the
extent the actual forfeiture rate is different from what we have estimated, stock-based compensation related to these awards will be different from our expectations.
Note 13. 401(k) Plans
We have two 401(k) Savings Plans (401(k) Plans) that qualify as deferred salary arrangements under Section 401(k)
of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these 401(k) Plans, matching contributions are based upon the amount of the employees contributions subject to certain limitations. We contributed approximately $100 million, $136 million, and $180 million
during 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Note 14. Income Taxes
Income from continuing operations before income taxes included income from domestic operations of $4,948 million, $4,693 million,
and $5,311 million for 2010, 2011, and 2012, and income from foreign operations of $5,848 million, $7,633 million, and $8,075 million for 2010, 2011, and 2012. Substantially all of the income from foreign operations was earned by an Irish
subsidiary.
The provision for income taxes consists of the following (in millions):

We have not provided U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on the undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 because we intend to permanently reinvest such earnings outside the U.S. If these foreign earnings were to be repatriated in the future, the related U.S. tax liability may be reduced by any foreign income
taxes previously paid on these earnings. As of December 31, 2012, the cumulative amount of earnings upon which U.S. income taxes have not been provided is approximately $33.3 billion. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax
liability related to these earnings is not practicable.

Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

As of December 31, 2012, our federal, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards for income tax
purposes were approximately $1,048 million, $333 million and $384 million. If not utilized, the federal net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2017 and the state net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2013. The
foreign net operating loss can be carried forward indefinitely, however it is more likely than not that it will not be realized, therefore we have recorded a full valuation allowance. The net operating loss carryforwards are subject to various
annual limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar limitations under the tax laws of the foreign jurisdictions.
As of December 31, 2012, our California research and development credit carryforwards for income tax purposes were approximately $146 million that can be carried over indefinitely. We believe it is more likely
than not that a portion of the state tax credit will not be realized. Therefore, we have recorded a valuation allowance on the state tax credit carryforward in the amount of $130 million. We will reassess the valuation allowance quarterly and if
future evidence allows for a partial or full release of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit will be recorded accordingly.
As of
December 31, 2012, our federal and state capital loss carryforwards for income tax purposes were approximately $483 million and $612 million. We also have deferred tax assets for impairment losses that, if recognized, will be capital in nature.
We believe that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets for capital losses and impairment losses will not be realized. Therefore, we have recorded a valuation allowance on both our
87
federal and state deferred tax assets for these items in the amount of $205 million. We will reassess the valuation allowance quarterly and if future evidence allows for a partial or full release
of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit will be recorded accordingly.
In December 2012, we entered into an agreement with Arris Group
Inc. (Arris) for the disposition of the Motorola Home business. A deferred tax asset was established for the book to tax basis difference in our investment in the Motorola Home Business upon signing the agreement. When the disposition event actually
occurs in the foreseeable future, some or all of the basis difference in the Home business will become a basis difference in Googles investment in Arris. Since any future losses to be recognized upon sale of the Home business or Arris Shares
will be capital losses and Google already has an excess capital loss carryforward, a full valuation allowance was recorded against this deferred tax asset. We will reassess the valuation allowance quarterly and if future evidence allows for a
partial or full release of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit will be recorded accordingly.

Our total unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate were $951 million,
$1,350 million, and $1,749 million as of December 31, 2010, 2011, and 2012.
As of December 31, 2011 and 2012, we had accrued
$129 million and $139 million for payment of interest and penalties. Interest and penalties included in our provision for income taxes were not material in all the periods presented.
We and our subsidiaries are routinely examined by various taxing authorities. Although we file U.S. federal, U.S. state, and foreign tax returns,
our two major tax jurisdictions are the U.S. and Ireland. During the three months ended December 31, 2007, the IRS completed its examination of our 2003 and 2004 tax years. We have filed an appeal with the IRS for certain issues related to this
audit and settlements were reached in 2012 on all but one issue which we plan to litigate in court. As a result we released the related reserves in the three month ended December 31, 2012. The IRS is currently in examination of our 2007, 2008,
and 2009 tax years. We expect the examination to be completed within the next 12 months, but we do not anticipate any significant impact to our unrecognized tax benefit balance as of December 31, 2012, related to our 2007, 2008, and 2009 tax
years.
88
Our 2010, 2011 and 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by the IRS for U.S. federal tax
purposes, and our 2006 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by the appropriate governmental agencies for Irish tax purposes. There are various other ongoing audits in various other jurisdictions that are not material to our financial
statements.
Note 15. Information about Segments and Geographic Areas
Prior to the second quarter of 2012, our chief operating decision makers (i.e., the chief executive officer and his direct
reports) reviewed financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by geographic region for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. As a result of our
Motorola acquisition in the second quarter of 2012, our chief operating decision makers review financial information for the following three operating segments:
|
|
|
Googleincludes our advertising and other non-advertising businesses |
|
|
|
Mobileincludes our mobile devices business acquired from Motorola |
|
|
|
Homeincludes our digital set-top box business acquired from Motorola |
In December 2012, as a result of an agreement for the disposition of the Home segment, the Home segment is presented as discontinued operations and
therefore is not included in the segment report.
Our chief operating decision makers do not evaluate operating segments using asset
information.
The following table sets forth revenues and operating income (loss) by operating segment (in millions):

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, our disclosure
controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2012
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with our Audit
Committee. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in its report which is included in
Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is
required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

- Definition
The net cash from (used in) all of the entity's operating activities, including those of discontinued operations, of the reporting entity. Operating activities generally involve producing and delivering goods and providing services. Operating activity cash flows include transactions, adjustments, and changes in value that are not defined as investing or financing activities. While for technical reasons this element has no balance attribute, the default assumption is a debit balance consistent with its label.

- Definition
This element represents the weighted average total number of shares issued throughout the period including the first (beginning balance outstanding) and last (ending balance outstanding) day of the period before considering any reductions (for instance, shares held in treasury) to arrive at the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Weighted average relates to the portion of time within a reporting period that common shares have been issued and outstanding to the total time in that period. Such concept is used in determining the weighted average number of shares outstanding for purposes of calculating earnings per share (basic).

- Definition
Cash includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the customer may deposit additional funds at any time and effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid Investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Short-term investments, exclusive of cash equivalents, generally consist of marketable securities intended to be sold within one year (or the normal operating cycle if longer) and may include trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or held-to-maturity securities (if maturing within one year), as applicable.

- Definition
Tax benefit associated with any equity-based compensation plan other than an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). The tax benefit results from the deduction by the entity on its tax return for an award of stock that exceeds the cumulative compensation cost for common stock or preferred stock recognized for financial reporting. Includes any resulting tax benefit that exceeds the previously recognized deferred tax asset (excess tax benefits).

- Definition
Cash includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the customer may deposit additional funds at any time and effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid Investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Short-term investments, exclusive of cash equivalents, generally consist of marketable securities intended to be sold within one year (or the normal operating cycle if longer) and may include trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or held-to-maturity securities (if maturing within one year), as applicable.

Information about Segments and Geographic Areas |
Note 15. Information about
Segments and Geographic Areas
Prior to the second quarter of 2012,
our chief operating decision makers (i.e., the chief executive
officer and his direct reports) reviewed financial information
presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated
information about revenues by geographic region for purposes of
allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. As a
result of our Motorola acquisition in the second quarter of 2012,
our chief operating decision makers review financial information
for the following three operating segments:
|
• |
|
Google—includes our advertising and other non-advertising
businesses
|
|
• |
|
Mobile—includes our mobile devices business acquired from
Motorola
|
|
• |
|
Home—includes our digital set-top box business acquired
from Motorola
|
In December 2012, as a result of an
agreement for the disposition of the Home segment, the Home segment
is presented as discontinued operations and therefore is not
included in the segment report.
Our chief operating decision makers
do not evaluate operating segments using asset
information.
The following table sets forth
revenues and operating income (loss) by operating segment (in
millions):

Unallocated items, including stock-based compensation expense,
restructuring and other charges related to our Mobile segment, and
a charge related to the resolution of a Department of Justice
investigation, are not allocated to each segment because we do not
include this information in our measurement of the performance of
our operating segments.
Revenues by geography are based on
the billing addresses of our customers for the Google segment and
the ship-to-addresses of our customers for the Mobile segment. The

designed to return Motorola’s Mobile segment to
profitability. For the year ended December 31, 2012,

Fair Value Measurements
We measure our cash equivalents,
marketable securities, and foreign currency and interest rate
derivative contracts at fair value. Fair value is an exit price,
representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based
measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A
three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for
considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation
methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1—Observable inputs that
reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or
liabilities in active markets.
Level 2—Include other inputs
that are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active
markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques
for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or
can be derived from observable market data. Where applicable, these
models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to
a present value using market-based observable inputs including
interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and credit
ratings.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs
that are supported by little or no market
activities.
The fair value hierarchy also
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair
value.
Based on the fair value hierarchy, we
classify our cash equivalents and marketable securities within
Level 1 or Level 2. This is because we value our cash equivalents
and marketable securities using quoted market prices or alternative
pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. We
classify our foreign currency and interest rate derivative
contracts primarily within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are
based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar
instruments.

The
balances at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 were
cash collateral received in connection with our securities lending
program, which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements
maturing within three months. See below for further discussion on
this program.

We determine realized gains or losses
on the sale of marketable securities on a specific identification
method. We recognized gross realized gains of $381 million and $383
million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012. We recognized gross realized losses of $127
million and $101 million for the years ended December 31, 2011
and December 31, 2012. In 2011, we also recorded an
other-than-temporary impairment charge of $88 million related to
our investment in Clearwire Corporation. We reflect these gains and
losses as a component of interest and other income, net, in our
accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table summarizes the
estimated fair value of our investments in marketable securities,
excluding marketable equity securities, designated as
available-for-sale and classified by the contractual maturity date
of the securities (in millions):

Securities Lending
Program
From time to time, we enter into
securities lending agreements with financial institutions to
enhance investment income. We loan selected securities which are
secured by collateral in the form of cash or securities. Cash
collateral is invested in reverse repurchase agreements. We
classify loaned securities as cash equivalents or marketable
securities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. We
record the cash collateral as an asset with a corresponding
liability. We classify reverse repurchase agreements maturing
within three months as cash equivalents and those longer than three
months as receivable under reverse repurchase agreements on the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. For lending agreements
collateralized by securities, we do not record an asset or
liability as we are not permitted to sell or repledge the
associated collateral.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We enter into foreign currency
contracts with financial institutions to reduce the risk that our
cash flows and earnings will be adversely affected by foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations. We use certain interest rate
derivative contracts to hedge interest rate exposures on our fixed
income securities and our anticipated debt issuance. Our program is
not designated for trading or speculative
purposes.
We enter into master netting
arrangements, which reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement
of transactions with the same company. To further reduce credit
risk, we enter into collateral security arrangements that provide
for collateral to be received when the net fair value of certain
financial instruments fluctuates from contractually established
thresholds. We present our derivative assets and derivative
liabilities at their gross fair values. At December 31, 2011
and December 31, 2012, we received cash collateral related to
the derivative instruments under our collateral security
arrangements of $113 million and $43 million, which are recorded as
accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We recognize derivative instruments
as either assets or liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets at fair value. We record changes in the fair value
(i.e., gains or losses) of the derivatives in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Income as interest and other income,
net, as part of revenues, or to accumulated other comprehensive
income (AOCI) in the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets.
Cash Flow
Hedges
We use options designated as cash
flow hedges to hedge certain forecasted revenue transactions
denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The notional
principal of these contracts was approximately $6.5 billion and
$9.5 billion as of December 31, 2011 and December 31,
2012. These foreign exchange contracts have maturities of 36 months
or less.
During the second quarter of 2012, we
began to hedge the variability of forecasted interest payments on
an anticipated debt issuance using forward-starting interest swaps.
The total notional amount of these forward-starting interest swaps
was $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2012 with terms calling
for us to receive interest at a variable rate and to pay interest
at a fixed rate. These forward-starting interest swaps effectively
fix the benchmark interest rate on an anticipated debt issuance of
$1.0 billion in 2014, and they will be terminated upon issuance of
the debt.
We initially report any gain or loss
on the effective portion of a cash flow hedge as a component of
AOCI and subsequently reclassify to revenues or interest expense
when the hedged transactions are recorded. If the hedged
transactions become probable of not occurring, the corresponding
amounts in AOCI would be reclassified to interest and other income,
net. Further, we exclude the change in the time value of the
options from our assessment of hedge effectiveness. We record the
premium paid or time value of an option on the date of purchase as
an asset. Thereafter, we recognize any change to this time value in
interest and other income, net.
As of December 31, 2012, the
effective portion of our cash flow hedges before tax effect was $11
million, $10 million of which is expected to be reclassified from
AOCI to revenues within the next 12 months.
Fair Value
Hedges
We use forward contracts designated
as fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency risks for our
investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in interest and
other income, net, along with the offsetting losses and gains of
the related hedged items. We exclude changes in the time value for
forward contracts from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and
recognize them in interest and other income, net. The notional
principal of these contracts was $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion as
of December 31, 2011 and December 31,
2012.
Other
Derivatives
Other derivatives not designated as
hedging instruments consist of forward and option contracts that we
use to hedge intercompany transactions and other monetary assets or
liabilities denominated in currencies other than the local currency
of a subsidiary. We recognize gains and losses on these contracts
as well as the related costs in interest and other income, net,
along with the gains and losses of the related hedged items. The
notional principal of foreign exchange contracts outstanding was
$3.7 billion and $6.6 billion at December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012.
We also use exchange-traded interest
rate futures contracts and “To Be Announced” (TBA)
forward purchase commitments of mortgage-backed assets to hedge
interest rate risks on certain fixed income securities. The TBA
contracts meet the definition of derivative instruments in cases
where physical delivery of the assets is not taken at the earliest
available delivery date. Our interest rate futures and TBA
contracts (together interest rate contracts) are not designated as
hedging instruments. We recognize gains and losses on these
contracts as well as the related costs in interest and other
income, net. The gains and losses are generally economically offset
by unrealized gains and losses in the underlying available-for-sale
securities, which are recorded as a component of AOCI until the
securities are sold or other-than-temporarily impaired, at which
time the amounts are moved from AOCI into interest and other
income, net. The total notional amounts of interest rate contracts
outstanding were $100 million and $25 million at December 31,
2011 and December, 31, 2012.

derivative instruments were as follows (in

Net Income Per Share of Class A and Class B Common Stock

Net Income Per Share of Class A and Class B Common Stock |
Note 2. Net Income Per Share
of Class A and Class B Common Stock
We compute net income per share of
Class A and Class B common stock using the two-class method.
Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net
income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of
common shares and the effect of potentially dilutive securities
outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities
consist of stock options, warrants issued under the TSO program,
and restricted stock units. The dilutive effect of outstanding
stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units is reflected in
diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock
method. The computation of the diluted net income per share of
Class A common stock assumes the conversion of Class B common
stock, while the diluted net income per share of Class B common
stock does not assume the conversion of those
shares.
The rights, including the liquidation
and dividend rights, of the holders of our Class A and Class B
common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Further,
there are a number of safeguards built into our certificate of
incorporation, as well as Delaware law, which preclude our board of
directors from declaring or paying unequal per share dividends on
our Class A and Class B common stock. Specifically, Delaware
law provides that amendments to our certificate of incorporation
which would have the effect of adversely altering the rights,
powers, or preferences of a given class of stock (in this case the
right of our Class A common stock to receive an equal dividend
to any declared on our Class B common stock) must be approved by
the class of stock adversely affected by the proposed amendment. In
addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that before any
such amendment may be put to a stockholder vote, it must be
approved by the unanimous consent of our board of directors. As a
result, the undistributed earnings for each year are allocated
based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A
and Class B common shares as if the earnings for the year had been
distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical,
the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis.
Further, as we assume the conversion of Class B common stock in the
computation of the diluted net income per share of Class A
common stock, the undistributed earnings are equal to net income
for that computation.
The following table sets forth the
computation of basic and diluted net income per share of
Class A and Class B common stock (in millions, except share
amounts which are reflected in thousands and per share
amounts):

We have not provided U.S. income
taxes and foreign withholding taxes on the undistributed earnings
of foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 because we
intend to permanently reinvest such earnings outside the U.S. If
these foreign earnings were to be repatriated in the future, the
related U.S. tax liability may be reduced by any foreign income
taxes previously paid on these earnings. As of December 31,
2012, the cumulative amount of earnings upon which U.S. income
taxes have not been provided is approximately $33.3 billion.
Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability
related to these earnings is not practicable.
Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred income taxes reflect the net
effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the
amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our
deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows (in
millions):

federal, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards for
income tax purposes were approximately $1,048 million, $333 million
and $384 million. If not utilized, the federal net operating loss
carryforwards will begin to expire in 2017 and the state net
operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2013. The
foreign net operating loss can be carried forward indefinitely,
however it is more likely than not that it will not be realized,
therefore we have recorded a full valuation allowance. The net
operating loss carryforwards are subject to various annual
limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and
similar limitations under the tax laws of the foreign
jurisdictions.
As of December 31, 2012, our
California research and development credit carryforwards for income
tax purposes were approximately $146 million that can be carried
over indefinitely. We believe it is more likely than not that a
portion of the state tax credit will not be realized. Therefore, we
have recorded a valuation allowance on the state tax credit
carryforward in the amount of $130 million. We will reassess the
valuation allowance quarterly and if future evidence allows for a
partial or full release of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit
will be recorded accordingly.
As of December 31, 2012, our
federal and state capital loss carryforwards for income tax
purposes were approximately $483 million and $612 million. We also
have deferred tax assets for impairment losses that, if recognized,
will be capital in nature. We believe that it is more likely than
not that our deferred tax assets for capital losses and impairment
losses will not be realized. Therefore, we have recorded a
valuation allowance on both our federal and state deferred tax
assets for these items in the amount of $205 million. We will
reassess the valuation allowance quarterly and if future evidence
allows for a partial or full release of the valuation allowance, a
tax benefit will be recorded accordingly.
In December 2012, we entered into an
agreement with Arris Group Inc. (Arris) for the disposition of the
Motorola Home business. A deferred tax asset was established for
the book to tax basis difference in our investment in the Motorola
Home Business upon signing the agreement. When the disposition
event actually occurs in the foreseeable future, some or all of the
basis difference in the Home business will become a basis
difference in Google’s investment in Arris. Since any future
losses to be recognized upon sale of the Home business or Arris
Shares will be capital losses and Google already has an excess
capital loss carryforward, a full valuation allowance was recorded
against this deferred tax asset. We will reassess the valuation
allowance quarterly and if future evidence allows for a partial or
full release of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit will be
recorded accordingly.

Our total unrecognized tax benefits
that, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate were $951
million, $1,350 million, and $1,749 million as of December 31,
2010, 2011, and 2012.
As of December 31, 2011 and
2012, we had accrued $129 million and $139 million for payment of
interest and penalties. Interest and penalties included in our
provision for income taxes were not material in all the periods
presented.
We and our subsidiaries are routinely
examined by various taxing authorities. Although we file U.S.
federal, U.S. state, and foreign tax returns, our two major tax
jurisdictions are the U.S. and Ireland. During the three months
ended December 31, 2007, the IRS completed its examination of
our 2003 and 2004 tax years. We have filed an appeal with the IRS
for certain issues related to this audit and settlements were
reached in 2012 on all but one issue which we plan to litigate in
court. As a result we released the related reserves in the three
month ended December 31, 2012. The IRS is currently in
examination of our 2007, 2008, and 2009 tax years. We expect the
examination to be completed within the next 12 months, but we do
not anticipate any significant impact to our unrecognized tax
benefit balance as of December 31, 2012, related to our 2007,
2008, and 2009 tax years.
Our 2010, 2011 and 2012 tax years
remain subject to examination by the IRS for U.S. federal tax
purposes, and our 2006 through 2012 tax years remain subject to
examination by the appropriate governmental agencies for Irish tax
purposes. There are various other ongoing audits in various other
jurisdictions that are not material to our financial
statements.

Note 6. Acquisitions
On May 22, 2012, we
completed our acquisition of Motorola, a provider of innovative
technologies, products and services that enable a range of mobile
and wireline digital communication, information and entertainment
experiences. The acquisition is expected to protect and advance our
Android ecosystem and enhance competition in mobile computing.
Under the transaction, we acquired all outstanding common shares of
Motorola for $40 per share and all vested Motorola stock options
and restricted stock units, for a total purchase price of
approximately $12.4 billion in cash. In addition, we assumed $401
million of unvested Motorola stock options and restricted stock
units, which will be recorded as stock-based compensation expense
over the remaining service periods. Transaction costs were
approximately $50 million, which were recorded as general and
administrative expense as incurred.
The fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed was based upon a preliminary
valuation and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change
within the measurement period. The primary areas of the purchase
price that are not yet finalized are related to certain legal
matters, income taxes, and residual goodwill. Of the $12.4 billion
total purchase price, $2.9 billion was cash acquired, $5.5 billion
was attributed to patents and developed technology, $2.5 billion to
goodwill, $0.7 billion to customer relationships, and $0.8 billion
to other net assets acquired.
The goodwill of $2.5
billion is primarily attributed to the synergies expected to arise
after the acquisition. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible
for tax purposes.
Supplemental information
on an unaudited pro forma basis, as if the Motorola acquisition had
been consummated on January 1, 2011, is presented as follows (in
millions, except per share amounts):

These pro forma results
are based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are
reasonable. They are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated
results of operations in future periods or the results that
actually would have been realized had we been a combined company
during the periods presented. The pro forma results include
adjustments primarily related to amortization of acquired
intangible assets, severance and benefit arrangements in connection
with the acquisition, and stock-based compensation expenses for
assumed unvested stock options and restricted stock
units.
During the year ended
December 31, 2012, we completed 52 other acquisitions and purchases
of intangible assets for a total cash consideration of
approximately $1,171 million, of which $733 million was attributed
to goodwill, $462 million to acquired intangible assets, and $24
million to net liabilities assumed. These acquisitions generally
enhance the breadth and depth of our expertise in engineering and
other functional areas, our technologies, and our product
offerings. The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax
purposes is approximately $29 million.
Pro forma results of
operations for these acquisitions have not been presented because
they are not material to the consolidated results of operations,
either individually or in the aggregate.
For all acquisitions
completed during the year ended December 31, 2012, patents and
developed technology have a weighted-average useful life of 8.9
years, customer relationships have a weighted-average useful life
of 7.4 years and trade names and other have a weighted-average
useful life of 9.0 years.

Note 4. Debt
Short-Term Debt
We have a debt financing program of
up to $3.0 billion through the issuance of commercial paper. Net
proceeds from this program are used for general corporate purposes.
At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, we had $750
million and $2.5 billion of outstanding commercial paper recorded
as short-term debt with weighted-average interest rates of 0.1% and
0.2%. In conjunction with this program, we have a $3.0 billion
revolving credit facility expiring in July 2016. The interest rate
for the credit facility is determined based on a formula using
certain market rates. At December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the financial
covenant in the credit facility, and no amounts were outstanding
under the credit facility at December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012.
Additionally, as of December 31,
2011, we had a $468 million secured promissory note outstanding
recorded as short-term debt, with an interest rate of 1.0% that
matured and was paid in December 2012.
The estimated fair value of the
short-term debt approximated its carrying value at
December 31, 2011 and December 31,
2012.
Long-Term Debt
In May 2011, we issued $3.0 billion
of unsecured senior notes in three tranches as described in the
table below (collectively, the Notes) (in
millions):

The effective interest yields of the
2014, 2016, and 2021 Notes were 1.258%, 2.241%, and 3.734%,
respectively. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in
arrears on May 19 and November 19 of each year. We may
redeem the Notes at any time in whole or from time to time in part
at specified redemption prices. We are not subject to any financial
covenants under the Notes. We used the net proceeds from the
issuance of the Notes for general corporate purposes. The total
estimated fair value of the Notes was approximately $3.2 billion at
December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. The fair value
of the Notes was determined based on observable market prices of
identical instruments in markets that are not active and was
categorized accordingly as Level 2 in the fair value
hierarchy.
At December 31, 2012, future
principal payments for the Notes were as follows (in

Stockholders' Equity |
Note 12. Stockholders’
Equity
Convertible Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has authorized
100,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, $0.001 par
value, issuable in series. At December 31, 2011 and 2012,
there were no shares issued or outstanding.
Class A and Class B Common Stock
Our board of directors has authorized
two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B. At
December 31, 2012, there were 9,000,000,000 and 3,000,000,000
shares authorized and there were 267,448,281 and 62,530,474 shares
outstanding of Class A and Class B common stock, $0.001 par
value. The rights of the holders of Class A and Class B common
stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Each share of
Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each
share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share.
Shares of Class B common stock may be converted at any time at the
option of the stockholder and automatically convert upon sale or
transfer to Class A common stock. We refer to Class A and
Class B common stock as common stock throughout the notes to these
financial statements, unless otherwise noted.
Stock Dividend
In April 2012, our board of directors
approved amendments to our certificate of incorporation that would,
among other things, create a new class of non-voting capital stock
(Class C capital stock). The amendments authorized 3 billion
shares of Class C capital stock and also increased the authorized
shares of Class A common stock from 6 billion to 9 billion.
The amendments are reflected in our Fourth Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation (New Charter), the adoption of
which was approved by stockholders at our 2012 Annual Meeting
of Stockholders held on June 21, 2012. We have announced the
intention of our board of directors to consider a distribution of
shares of the Class C capital stock as a dividend to our
holders of Class A and Class B common
stock (Dividend). The Class C capital stock will have no
voting rights, except as required by applicable law. Except as
expressly provided in the New Charter, shares of Class C capital
stock will have the same rights and privileges and rank equally,
share ratably and be identical in all other respects to the shares
of Class A common stock and Class B common stock as to all
matters.
The par value per share of our shares
of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will remain
unchanged at $0.001 per share after the Dividend. On the
effective date of the Dividend, there will be a transfer between
retained earnings and common stock and the amount transferred will
be equal to the $0.001 par value of the Class C capital stock that
is issued. We will give retroactive effect to prior period
share and per share amounts in our consolidated financial
statements for the effect of the Dividend, such that prior periods
are comparable to current period presentation.
Stock Plans
We maintain the 1998 Stock Plan, the
2000 Stock Plan, the 2003 Stock Plan, the 2003 Stock Plan
(No. 2), the 2003 Stock Plan (No. 3), the 2004 Stock Plan, and
plans assumed through acquisitions, all of which are collectively
referred to as the “Stock Plans.” Under our Stock
Plans, incentive and non-qualified stock options or rights to
purchase common stock may be granted to eligible participants.
Options are generally granted for a term of 10 years. Under the
Stock Plans, we have also issued RSUs. An RSU award is an agreement
to issue shares of our stock at the time the award vests. Except
for options granted pursuant to our stock option exchange program
completed in March 2009 (the Exchange), options granted and RSUs
issued to participants under the Stock Plans generally vest over
four years contingent upon employment or service with us on the
vesting date.
At December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012, there were 21,794,492 and 15,833,050 shares
of common stock reserved for future issuance under our Stock
Plans.
We estimated the fair value of each
option award on the date of grant using the BSM option pricing
model. Our assumptions about stock-price volatility have been based
exclusively on the implied volatilities of publicly traded options
to buy our stock with contractual terms closest to the expected
life of options granted to our employees. We estimate the expected
term based upon the historical exercise behavior of our employees.
The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life
of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at
the time of grant.
The following table presents the
weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair values of
the stock options granted in the periods
presented:

The above tables include
approximately 1.6 million warrants held by selected financial
institutions that were options purchased from employees under our
TSO program, with a weighted-average exercise price of $363.66 and
a weighted-average remaining life of 1.3 years.
During 2012, the number of shares
underlying TSOs sold to selected financial institutions under the
TSO program was 1,226,983 at a total value of $365 million, or an
average of $297.28 per share, including an average premium of $9.35
per share. The premium is calculated as the difference between
(a) the sale price of the TSO and (b) the intrinsic value
of the TSO, which we define as the excess, if any, of the price of
our Class A common stock at the time of the sale over the
exercise price of the TSO.
The total grant date fair value of
stock options vested during 2010, 2011, and 2012 was $690 million,
$561 million, and $489 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of
all options and warrants exercised during 2010, 2011, and 2012 was
$794 million, $674 million, and $827 million. These amounts do not
include the aggregate sales price of options sold under our TSO
program.
As of December 31, 2012, there
was $386 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to
outstanding employee stock options. This amount is expected to be
recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years. To the
extent the actual forfeiture rate is different from what we have
estimated, stock-based compensation related to these awards will be
different from our expectations.

Nature of Operations |
Nature of Operations
We were incorporated in
California in September 1998. We were re-incorporated in the State
of Delaware in August 2003. We generate revenues primarily by
delivering relevant, cost-effective online advertising in our
Google segment. In addition, as a result of our acquisition of
Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (Motorola) on May 22, 2012,
we generate revenues from sales of mobile devices in our Motorola
Mobile (Mobile) segment and digital set-top boxes in our Motorola
Home (Home) segment. In December 2012, we entered into an agreement
to dispose Home, and the related financial results are presented as
net loss from discontinued operations on the Consolidated
Statements of Income. Assets and liabilities of Motorola Home are
not presented as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets
because they are not material.
|
Basis of Consolidation |
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Google Inc. and our
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
|
Use of Estimates |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of
consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires us to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in
the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis,
we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounts
receivable and sales allowances, fair values of financial
instruments, intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of
intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of
stock-based awards, inventory valuations, income taxes, and
contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities.

We recognize revenues when the
services or products have been provided or delivered, the fees we
charge are fixed or determinable, we and our advertisers or other
customers understand the specific nature and terms of the agreed
upon transactions, and collectability is reasonably
assured.
Google
Google AdWords is our auction-based
advertising program that enables advertisers to place text-based
and display ads on our websites and our Google Network
Members’ websites. Display advertising comprises the videos,
text, images, and other interactive ads that run across the web on
computers and mobile devices, including smart phones and handheld
computers such as netbooks and tablets. Most of our customers pay
us on a cost-per-click basis, which means that an advertiser pays
us only when a user clicks on one of its ads. We also offer
advertising on a cost-per-impression basis that enables advertisers
to pay us based on the number of times their ads display on our
websites and our Google Network Members’ websites as
specified by the advertisers.
Google AdSense refers to the online
programs through which we distribute our advertisers’ AdWords
ads for display on our Google Network Members’
websites.
We recognize as revenues the fees
charged to advertisers each time a user clicks on one of the ads
that appears next to the search results or content on our websites
or our Google Network Members’ websites. For those
advertisers using our cost-per-impression pricing, we recognize as
revenues the fees charged to advertisers each time their ads are
displayed on our websites or our Google Network Members’
websites. We report our Google AdSense revenues on a gross basis
principally because we are the primary obligor to our
advertisers.
We record deferred revenues upon
invoicing or when cash payments are received in advance of our
performance in the underlying agreement on the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Motorola
For hardware product sales, where we
sell directly to end customers or through distribution channels,
revenue recognition generally occurs when products have been
shipped, risk of loss has transferred to the customer, objective
evidence exists that customer acceptance provisions have been met,
no significant obligations remain and allowances for discounts,
price protection, returns and customer incentives can be reasonably
and reliably estimated. Recorded revenues are reduced by these
allowances. Where these allowances cannot be reasonably and
reliably estimated, we recognize revenue at the time the product
sells through the distribution channel to the end
customer.
For arrangements that include
multiple deliverables, primarily for products that contain software
essential to the hardware products’ functionality and
services, we allocate revenue to each unit of accounting based on
their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, we use a
hierarchy to determine the selling prices to be used for allocating
revenue: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value
(VSOE), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price, and
(iii) best estimate of the selling price (ESP). VSOE generally
exists only when we sell the deliverable separately and is the
price actually charged by us for that deliverable. ESPs reflect our
best estimates of what the selling prices of elements would be if
they were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis.
Revenues from Home are included in
net loss from discontinued operations.
|
Cost of Revenues |
Cost of Revenues
Google
Cost of revenues consists primarily
of traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs consist of
amounts ultimately paid to our Google Network members under AdSense
arrangements and to certain other partners (our distribution
partners) who distribute our toolbar and other products
(collectively referred to as access points) or otherwise direct
search queries to our website (collectively referred to as
distribution arrangements). These amounts are primarily based on
the revenue share and fixed fee arrangements with our Google
Network Members and distribution partners.
Certain distribution arrangements
require us to pay our partners based on a fee per access point
delivered and not exclusively—or at all—based on
revenue share. These fees are non-refundable. Further, these
arrangements are terminable at will, although under the terms of
certain contracts we or our distribution partners may be subject to
penalties in the event of early termination. We recognize fees
under these arrangements over the estimated useful lives of the
access points (approximately two years) to the extent we can
reasonably estimate those lives and they are longer than one year,
or based on any contractual revenue share, if greater. Otherwise,
the fees are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful
life of the access points is based on the historical average period
of time they generate traffic and revenues. Further, we review the
access points for impairment by distribution partner, type, and
geography, and we have not made any impairment to
date.
Cost of revenues also includes the
expenses associated with the operation of our data centers,
including depreciation, labor, energy, and bandwidth costs, credit
card and other transaction fees related to processing customer
transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well
as content acquisition costs. We have entered into arrangements
with certain content providers under which we distribute or license
their video and other content. In a number of these arrangements,
we display ads on the pages of our web sites from which the content
is viewed and share most of the fees these ads generate with the
content providers. To the extent we are obligated to make
guaranteed minimum revenue share payments to our content providers,
we recognize as content acquisition costs the contractual revenue
share amount or the minimum guarantee on a straight-line basis,
whichever is greater, over the terms of the
agreements.
Prepaid revenue share and
distribution fees are included in prepaid revenue share, expenses,
and other assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets.
Motorola
Cost of revenues from our Motorola
business related to delivered hardware, including estimated
warranty costs, are recognized at the time of sale. Cost of
revenues from Home are included in net loss from discontinued
operations.
|
Stock-based Compensation |
Stock-based Compensation
We have elected to use
the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option pricing model to determine
the fair value of stock options on the dates of
grant. Restricted stock units (RSUs) are measured based on the fair
market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. Shares
are issued on the vesting dates net of the minimum statutory tax
withholding requirements to be paid by us on behalf of our
employees. As a result, the actual number of shares issued will be
fewer than the actual number of RSUs outstanding. Furthermore, we
record the liability for withholding amounts to be paid by us as a
reduction to additional paid-in capital when paid. Also, we
recognize stock-based compensation using the straight-line
method.
We include as part of
cash flows from financing activities the benefits of tax deductions
in excess of the tax-effected compensation of the related
stock-based awards for options exercised and RSUs vested during the
period. During the years ended December 31,
2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012, the
amount of cash received from the exercise of stock options was $656
million, $621 million, and $736 million, and the total direct tax
benefit realized, including the excess tax benefit, from
stock-based award activities was $355 million, $451 million, and
$747 million. We have elected to account for the indirect effects
of stock-based awards—primarily the research and development
tax credit—through the Consolidated Statements of
Income.
For the years ended
December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012, we
recognized stock-based compensation expense and related tax
benefits of $1,376 million and $314 million, $1,974 million and
$413 million, and $2,649 million and $591 million. Additionally,
net loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December
31, 2012 includes stock-based compensation expense and related tax
benefits of $43 million and $11 million.

Certain Risks and Concentrations |
Certain Risks
and Concentrations
Our revenues are primarily derived from online
advertising, the market for which is highly competitive and rapidly
changing. In addition, our revenues are generated from a multitude
of vertical market segments in countries around the world.
Significant changes in this industry or changes in customer buying
or advertiser spending behavior could adversely affect our
operating results. In addition, for our Motorola business, nearly
all of our Motorola products (other than some prototypes) are
manufactured outside the U.S., primarily in China, Taiwan and
Brazil.
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash
equivalents, marketable securities, foreign exchange contracts, and
accounts receivable. Cash equivalents and marketable securities
consist primarily of time deposits, money market and other funds,
including cash collateral received related to our securities
lending program, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S.
government and its agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign
governments and municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities,
mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. Foreign
exchange contracts are transacted with various financial
institutions with high credit standing. Accounts receivable are
typically unsecured and are derived from revenues earned from
customers located around the world. In 2010, 2011, and 2012, we
generated approximately 48%, 46%, and 47% of our revenues from
customers based in the U.S., with the majority of customers outside
of the U.S. located in Europe and Japan. Many of our Google Network
Members are in the internet industry. We perform ongoing
evaluations to determine customer credit and we limit the amount of
credit we extend, but generally we do not require collateral from
our customers. We maintain reserves for estimated credit losses and
these losses have generally been within our
expectations.
No individual customer or groups of affiliated customers
represented more than 10% of our revenues in 2010, 2011, and
2012.
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
Our financial assets and
financial liabilities that include cash equivalents, marketable
securities, and foreign currency and interest rate derivative
contracts are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring
basis. We measure certain other assets including our non-marketable
equity securities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they
are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. Our other current
financial assets and our other current financial liabilities have
fair values that approximate their carrying value and are therefore
not recorded at fair value.
|
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities |
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and
Marketable Securities
We invest our excess cash
primarily in time deposits, money market and other funds, including
cash collateral received related to our securities lending program,
highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government and its
agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign governments and
municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities, mortgage-backed
securities, and asset-backed securities.
We classify all highly
liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less
from date of purchase as cash equivalents and all highly liquid
investments with stated maturities of greater than three months as
marketable securities.
We determine the
appropriate classification of our investments in marketable
securities at the time of purchase and reevaluate such designation
at each balance sheet date. We have classified and accounted for
our marketable securities as available-for-sale. We may or may not
hold securities with stated maturities greater than 12 months until
maturity. After consideration of our risk versus reward objectives,
as well as our liquidity requirements, we may sell these securities
prior to their stated maturities. As we view these securities as
available to support current operations, we classify securities
with maturities beyond 12 months as current assets under the
caption marketable securities in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets. We carry these securities at fair value, and report
the unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, as a component of
stockholders’ equity, except for unrealized losses determined
to be other-than-temporary, which we record as interest and other
income, net. We determine any realized gains or losses on the sale
of marketable securities on a specific identification method, and
we record such gains and losses as a component of interest and
other income, net.
|
Non Marketable Equity Investments |
Non-Marketable Equity
Securities
We have accounted for
non-marketable equity securities either under the equity or cost
method. Investments through which we exercise significant influence
but do not have control over the investee are accounted for under
the equity method. Investments through which we are not able to
exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for
under the cost method.
|
Impairment of Marketable and Non-Marketable Securities |
Impairment of Marketable and Non-Marketable
Securities
We periodically review our marketable
and non-marketable securities for impairment. If we conclude that
any of these investments are impaired, we determine whether such
impairment is other-than-temporary. Factors we consider to make
such determination include the duration and severity of the
impairment, the reason for the decline in value and the potential
recovery period and our intent to sell. For marketable debt
securities, we also consider whether (1) it is more likely
than not that we will be required to sell the security before
recovery of its amortized cost basis, and (2) the amortized
cost basis cannot be recovered as a result of credit losses. If any
impairment is considered other-than-temporary, we will write down
the asset to its fair value and record the corresponding charge as
interest and other income, net.
|
Accounts Receivable |
Accounts Receivable
We record accounts
receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We
maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for
potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts
receivable by amounts due by customers which are past due to
identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability
issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments
about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on
ongoing credit evaluations. We also maintain a sales allowance to
reserve for potential credits issued to customers. We determine the
amount of the reserve based on historical credits
issued.
|
Inventories |
Inventories
Inventories are stated at
the lower of cost or market, computed using the first-in, first-out
method.
|
Property and Equipment |
Property and Equipment
We account for property
and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. We compute depreciation using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally two
to five years. We depreciate buildings over periods up to 25 years.
We amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the
remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Construction in progress is related to the construction or
development of property (including land) and equipment that have
not yet been placed in service for our intended use. Depreciation
for equipment commences once it is placed in service and
depreciation for buildings and leasehold improvements commences
once they are ready for our intended use. Land is not
depreciated.
|
Software Development Costs |
Software Development Costs
We expense software
development costs, including costs to develop software products or
the software component of products to be marketed to external
users, before technological feasibility of such products is
reached. We have determined that technological feasibility was
reached shortly before the release of those products and as a
result, the development costs incurred after the establishment of
technological feasibility and before the release of those products
were not material, and accordingly, were expensed as incurred.
Software development costs also include costs to develop software
programs to be used solely to meet our internal needs. The costs we
incurred during the application development stage for these
software programs were not material in the years
presented.
|
Business Combinations |
Business Combinations
We include the results of
operations of the businesses that we acquire as of the respective
dates of acquisition. We allocate the fair value of the purchase
price of our acquisitions to the tangible assets acquired, and
liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired, based on their
estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase
price over the fair values of these identifiable assets and
liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
|
Long-Lived Assets Including Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets |
Long-Lived Assets Including Goodwill
and Other Acquired Intangible Assets
We review property and
equipment, long-term prepayments and intangible assets, excluding
goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. We measure recoverability of these assets by comparing
the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the
assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment and
intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to
be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the
asset exceeds its fair market value. We have made no material
adjustments to our long-lived assets in any of the years presented.
In addition, we test our goodwill for impairment at least annually
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate
that this asset may be impaired. We found no goodwill impairment in
any of the years presented.
Intangible assets with
definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We
amortize our acquired intangible assets on a straight-line basis
with definite lives over periods ranging from one to 12
years.
|
Income Taxes |
Income Taxes
We recognize income taxes
under the liability method. We recognize deferred income taxes for
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the
years in which differences are expected to reverse. We recognize
the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates in income in
the period that includes the enactment date.
|
Foreign Currency |
Foreign Currency
Generally, the functional currency of
our international subsidiaries is the local currency. We translate
the financial statements of these subsidiaries to U.S. dollars
using month-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and
average rates of exchange for revenues, costs, and expenses. We
record translation gains and losses in accumulated other
comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity.
We recorded $124 million of net translation losses in 2010, $107
million of net translation losses in 2011, and $75 million of net
translation gains in 2012. We record net gains and losses resulting
from foreign exchange transactions as a component of foreign
currency exchange losses in interest and other income, net. These
gains and losses are net of those recognized on foreign exchange
contracts. We recorded $29 million of net losses in 2010, $38
million of net losses in 2011, and $78 million of net losses in
2012.
|
Advertising and Promotional Expenses |
Advertising and Promotional
Expenses
We expense advertising
and promotional costs in the period in which they are incurred. For
the years ended December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2012,
advertising and promotional expenses totaled approximately $772
million, $1,544 million, and $2,332 million.

- Definition
Disclosure of accounting policy for revenue recognition. If the entity has different policies for different types of revenue transactions, the policy for each material type of transaction is generally disclosed. If a sales transaction has multiple element arrangements (for example, delivery of multiple products, services or the rights to use assets) the disclosure may indicate the accounting policy for each unit of accounting as well as how units of accounting are determined and valued. The disclosure may encompass important judgment as to appropriateness of principles related to recognition of revenue. The disclosure also may indicate the entity's treatment of any unearned or deferred revenue that arises from the transaction.

Note 1. Google Inc. and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of
Operations
We were
incorporated in California in September 1998. We were
re-incorporated in the State of Delaware in August 2003. We
generate revenues primarily by delivering relevant, cost-effective
online advertising in our Google segment. In addition, as a result
of our acquisition of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (Motorola)
on May 22, 2012, we generate revenues from sales of mobile devices
in our Motorola Mobile (Mobile) segment and digital set-top boxes
in our Motorola Home (Home) segment. In December 2012, we entered
into an agreement to dispose Home, and the related financial
results are presented as net loss from discontinued operations on
the Consolidated Statements of Income. Assets and liabilities of
Motorola Home are not presented as held for sale on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets because they are not
material.
Basis of
Consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Google Inc. and our
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
Use of
Estimates
The preparation
of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and
disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an
ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related
to the accounts receivable and sales allowances, fair values of
financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives
of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of
stock-based awards, inventory valuations, income taxes, and
contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities.

We recognize
revenues when the services or products have been provided or
delivered, the fees we charge are fixed or determinable, we and our
advertisers or other customers understand the specific nature and
terms of the agreed upon transactions, and collectability is
reasonably assured.
Google
Google AdWords
is our auction-based advertising program that enables advertisers
to place text-based and display ads on our websites and our Google
Network Members’ websites. Display advertising comprises the
videos, text, images, and other interactive ads that run across the
web on computers and mobile devices, including smart phones and
handheld computers such as netbooks and tablets. Most of our
customers pay us on a cost-per-click basis, which means that an
advertiser pays us only when a user clicks on one of its ads. We
also offer advertising on a cost-per-impression basis that enables
advertisers to pay us based on the number of times their ads
display on our websites and our Google Network Members’
websites as specified by the
advertisers.
Google AdSense
refers to the online programs through which we distribute our
advertisers’ AdWords ads for display on our Google Network
Members’ websites.
We recognize as
revenues the fees charged to advertisers each time a user clicks on
one of the ads that appears next to the search results or content
on our websites or our Google Network Members’ websites. For
those advertisers using our cost-per-impression pricing, we
recognize as revenues the fees charged to advertisers each time
their ads are displayed on our websites or our Google Network
Members’ websites. We report our Google AdSense revenues on a
gross basis principally because we are the primary obligor to our
advertisers.
We record
deferred revenues upon invoicing or when cash payments are received
in advance of our performance in the underlying agreement on the
accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets.
Motorola
For hardware
product sales, where we sell directly to end customers or through
distribution channels, revenue recognition generally occurs when
products have been shipped, risk of loss has transferred to the
customer, objective evidence exists that customer acceptance
provisions have been met, no significant obligations remain and
allowances for discounts, price protection, returns and customer
incentives can be reasonably and reliably estimated. Recorded
revenues are reduced by these allowances. Where these allowances
cannot be reasonably and reliably estimated, we recognize revenue
at the time the product sells through the distribution channel to
the end customer.
For arrangements
that include multiple deliverables, primarily for products that
contain software essential to the hardware products’
functionality and services, we allocate revenue to each unit of
accounting based on their relative selling prices. In such
circumstances, we use a hierarchy to determine the selling prices
to be used for allocating revenue: (i) vendor-specific objective
evidence of fair value (VSOE), (ii) third-party evidence of selling
price, and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (ESP). VSOE
generally exists only when we sell the deliverable separately and
is the price actually charged by us for that deliverable. ESPs
reflect our best estimates of what the selling prices of elements
would be if they were sold regularly on a stand-alone
basis.
Revenues from
Home are included in net loss from discontinued
operations.
Cost of
Revenues
Google
Cost of revenues
consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs. Traffic
acquisition costs consist of amounts ultimately paid to our Google
Network members under AdSense arrangements and to certain other
partners (our distribution partners) who distribute our toolbar and
other products (collectively referred to as access points) or
otherwise direct search queries to our website (collectively
referred to as distribution arrangements). These amounts are
primarily based on the revenue share and fixed fee arrangements
with our Google Network Members and distribution
partners.
Certain
distribution arrangements require us to pay our partners based on a
fee per access point delivered and not exclusively—or at
all—based on revenue share. These fees are non-refundable.
Further, these arrangements are terminable at will, although under
the terms of certain contracts we or our distribution partners may
be subject to penalties in the event of early termination. We
recognize fees under these arrangements over the estimated useful
lives of the access points (approximately two years) to the extent
we can reasonably estimate those lives and they are longer than one
year, or based on any contractual revenue share, if greater.
Otherwise, the fees are charged to expense as incurred. The
estimated useful life of the access points is based on the
historical average period of time they generate traffic and
revenues. Further, we review the access points for impairment by
distribution partner, type, and geography, and we have not made any
impairment to date.
Cost of revenues
also includes the expenses associated with the operation of our
data centers, including depreciation, labor, energy, and bandwidth
costs, credit card and other transaction fees related to processing
customer transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets,
as well as content acquisition costs. We have entered into
arrangements with certain content providers under which we
distribute or license their video and other content. In a number of
these arrangements, we display ads on the pages of our web sites
from which the content is viewed and share most of the fees these
ads generate with the content providers. To the extent we are
obligated to make guaranteed minimum revenue share payments to our
content providers, we recognize as content acquisition costs the
contractual revenue share amount or the minimum guarantee on a
straight-line basis, whichever is greater, over the terms of the
agreements.
Prepaid revenue
share and distribution fees are included in prepaid revenue share,
expenses, and other assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets.
Motorola
Cost of revenues
from our Motorola business related to delivered hardware, including
estimated warranty costs, are recognized at the time of sale. Cost
of revenues from Home are included in net loss from discontinued
operations.
Stock-based
Compensation
We have elected
to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option pricing model to
determine the fair value of stock options on the dates of
grant. Restricted stock units (RSUs) are measured based on the fair
market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. Shares
are issued on the vesting dates net of the minimum statutory tax
withholding requirements to be paid by us on behalf of our
employees. As a result, the actual number of shares issued will be
fewer than the actual number of RSUs outstanding. Furthermore, we
record the liability for withholding amounts to be paid by us as a
reduction to additional paid-in capital when paid. Also, we
recognize stock-based compensation using the straight-line
method.
We include as
part of cash flows from financing activities the benefits of tax
deductions in excess of the tax-effected compensation of the
related stock-based awards for options exercised and RSUs vested
during the period. During the years ended December 31, 2010,
December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012, the amount of cash
received from the exercise of stock options was $656 million, $621
million, and $736 million, and the total direct tax benefit
realized, including the excess tax benefit, from stock-based award
activities was $355 million, $451 million, and $747 million. We
have elected to account for the indirect effects of stock-based
awards—primarily the research and development tax
credit—through the Consolidated Statements of
Income.
For the years
ended December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012,
we recognized stock-based compensation expense and related tax
benefits of $1,376 million and $314 million, $1,974 million and
$413 million, and $2,649 million and $591 million. Additionally,
net loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December
31, 2012 includes stock-based compensation expense and related tax
benefits of $43 million and $11
million.
Certain Risks and
Concentrations
Our revenues are
primarily derived from online advertising, the market for which is
highly competitive and rapidly changing. In addition, our revenues
are generated from a multitude of vertical market segments in
countries around the world. Significant changes in this industry or
changes in customer buying or advertiser spending behavior could
adversely affect our operating results. In addition, for our
Motorola business, nearly all of our Motorola products (other than
some prototypes) are manufactured outside the U.S., primarily in
China, Taiwan and Brazil.
Financial
instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit
risk consist principally of cash equivalents, marketable
securities, foreign exchange contracts, and accounts receivable.
Cash equivalents and marketable securities consist primarily of
time deposits, money market and other funds, including cash
collateral received related to our securities lending program,
highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government and its
agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign governments and
municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities, mortgage-backed
securities, and asset-backed securities. Foreign exchange contracts
are transacted with various financial institutions with high credit
standing. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are
derived from revenues earned from customers located around the
world. In 2010, 2011, and 2012, we generated approximately 48%,
46%, and 47% of our revenues from customers based in the U.S., with
the majority of customers outside of the U.S. located in Europe and
Japan. Many of our Google Network Members are in the internet
industry. We perform ongoing evaluations to determine customer
credit and we limit the amount of credit we extend, but generally
we do not require collateral from our customers. We maintain
reserves for estimated credit losses and these losses have
generally been within our
expectations.
No individual
customer or groups of affiliated customers represented more than
10% of our revenues in 2010, 2011, and
2012.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
Our financial
assets and financial liabilities that include cash equivalents,
marketable securities, and foreign currency and interest rate
derivative contracts are measured and recorded at fair value on a
recurring basis. We measure certain other assets including our
non-marketable equity securities at fair value on a nonrecurring
basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
Our other current financial assets and our other current financial
liabilities have fair values that approximate their carrying value
and are therefore not recorded at fair
value.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and
Marketable Securities
We invest our
excess cash primarily in time deposits, money market and other
funds, including cash collateral received related to our securities
lending program, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S.
government and its agencies, debt instruments issued by foreign
governments and municipalities in the U.S., corporate securities,
mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed
securities.
We classify all
highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or
less from date of purchase as cash equivalents and all highly
liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three
months as marketable securities.
We determine the
appropriate classification of our investments in marketable
securities at the time of purchase and reevaluate such designation
at each balance sheet date. We have classified and accounted for
our marketable securities as available-for-sale. We may or may not
hold securities with stated maturities greater than 12 months until
maturity. After consideration of our risk versus reward objectives,
as well as our liquidity requirements, we may sell these securities
prior to their stated maturities. As we view these securities as
available to support current operations, we classify securities
with maturities beyond 12 months as current assets under the
caption marketable securities in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets. We carry these securities at fair value, and report
the unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, as a component of
stockholders’ equity, except for unrealized losses determined
to be other-than-temporary, which we record as interest and other
income, net. We determine any realized gains or losses on the sale
of marketable securities on a specific identification method, and
we record such gains and losses as a component of interest and
other income, net.
Non-Marketable Equity
Securities
We have
accounted for non-marketable equity securities either under the
equity or cost method. Investments through which we exercise
significant influence but do not have control over the investee are
accounted for under the equity method. Investments through which we
are not able to exercise significant influence over the investee
are accounted for under the cost
method.
Impairment of Marketable and
Non-Marketable Securities
We periodically
review our marketable and non-marketable securities for impairment.
If we conclude that any of these investments are impaired, we
determine whether such impairment is other-than-temporary. Factors
we consider to make such determination include the duration and
severity of the impairment, the reason for the decline in value and
the potential recovery period and our intent to sell. For
marketable debt securities, we also consider whether (1) it is more
likely than not that we will be required to sell the security
before recovery of its amortized cost basis, and (2) the amortized
cost basis cannot be recovered as a result of credit losses. If any
impairment is considered other-than-temporary, we will write down
the asset to its fair value and record the corresponding charge as
interest and other income, net.
Accounts
Receivable
We record
accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge
interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve
for potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts
receivable by amounts due by customers which are past due to
identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability
issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments
about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on
ongoing credit evaluations. We also maintain a sales allowance to
reserve for potential credits issued to customers. We determine the
amount of the reserve based on historical credits
issued.
Inventories
Inventories are
stated at the lower of cost or market, computed using the first-in,
first-out method.
Property and
Equipment
We account for
property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. We compute depreciation using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally two
to five years. We depreciate buildings over periods up to 25 years.
We amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the
remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Construction in progress is related to the construction or
development of property (including land) and equipment that have
not yet been placed in service for our intended use. Depreciation
for equipment commences once it is placed in service and
depreciation for buildings and leasehold improvements commences
once they are ready for our intended use. Land is not
depreciated.
Software Development
Costs
We expense
software development costs, including costs to develop software
products or the software component of products to be marketed to
external users, before technological feasibility of such products
is reached. We have determined that technological feasibility was
reached shortly before the release of those products and as a
result, the development costs incurred after the establishment of
technological feasibility and before the release of those products
were not material, and accordingly, were expensed as incurred.
Software development costs also include costs to develop software
programs to be used solely to meet our internal needs. The costs we
incurred during the application development stage for these
software programs were not material in the years
presented.
Business
Combinations
We include the
results of operations of the businesses that we acquire as of the
respective dates of acquisition. We allocate the fair value of the
purchase price of our acquisitions to the tangible assets acquired,
and liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired, based on
their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of
purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets
and liabilities is recorded as
goodwill.
Long-Lived Assets Including Goodwill
and Other Acquired Intangible
Assets
We review
property and equipment, long-term prepayments and intangible
assets, excluding goodwill, for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. We measure recoverability of these assets
by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash
flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and
equipment and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying
value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We have made no
material adjustments to our long-lived assets in any of the years
presented. In addition, we test our goodwill for impairment at
least annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that this asset may be impaired. We found no
goodwill impairment in any of the years
presented.
Intangible
assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated
useful lives. We amortize our acquired intangible assets on a
straight-line basis with definite lives over periods ranging from
one to 12 years.
Income
Taxes
We recognize
income taxes under the liability method. We recognize deferred
income taxes for differences between the financial reporting and
tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates
in effect for the years in which differences are expected to
reverse. We recognize the effect on deferred taxes of a change in
tax rates in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
Foreign
Currency
Generally, the
functional currency of our international subsidiaries is the local
currency. We translate the financial statements of these
subsidiaries to U.S. dollars using month-end rates of exchange for
assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for revenues,
costs, and expenses. We record translation gains and losses in
accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of
stockholders’ equity. We recorded $124 million of net
translation losses in 2010, $107 million of net translation losses
in 2011, and $75 million of net translation gains in 2012. We
record net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange
transactions as a component of foreign currency exchange losses in
interest and other income, net. These gains and losses are net of
those recognized on foreign exchange contracts. We recorded $29
million of net losses in 2010, $38 million of net losses in 2011,
and $78 million of net losses in
2012.
Advertising and Promotional
Expenses
We expense
advertising and promotional costs in the period in which they are
incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2012,
advertising and promotional expenses totaled approximately $772
million, $1,544 million, and $2,332
million.

- Definition
The estimated measure of the percentage by which a share price is expected to fluctuate during a period. Volatility also may be defined as a probability-weighted measure of the dispersion of returns about the mean. The volatility of a share price is the standard deviation of the continuously compounded rates of return on the share over a specified period. That is the same as the standard deviation of the differences in the natural logarithms of the stock prices plus dividends, if any, over the period.

Commitments and Contingencies
Operating
Leases
We have entered into various non-cancelable operating
lease agreements for certain of our offices, land, and data centers
throughout the world with original lease periods expiring primarily
between 2013 and 2063. We are committed to pay a portion of the
actual operating expenses under certain of these lease agreements.
These operating expenses are not included in the table below.
Certain of these arrangements have free or escalating rent payment
provisions. We recognize rent expense under such arrangements on a
straight-line basis.
At December 31, 2012, future minimum payments under
non-cancelable operating leases, net of sublease income amounts,
were as follows over each of the next five years and thereafter (in
millions):

Certain leases have adjustments for market provisions.
Amounts in the above table represent our best estimates of future
payments to be made under these leases. In addition, the above
table does not include future rental income of $649 million related
to the leases that we assumed in connection with our building
purchases. Rent expense under operating leases, including
co-location arrangements, was $293 million, $380 million, and $448
million in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Purchase
Obligations
At December 31, 2012, we had $2.1 billion of other
non-cancelable contractual obligations, primarily related to
certain of our distribution arrangements, video and other content
licensing revenue sharing arrangements, as well as data center
operations and facility build-outs.
Letters of
Credit
At December 31, 2012, we had unused letters of credit for
$89 million, of which $45 million related to our Mobile
segment.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business to facilitate
transactions in our services and products, we indemnify certain
parties, including advertisers, Google Network Members, and lessors
with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold certain
parties harmless against losses arising from a breach of
representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property
infringement or other claims made against certain parties. Several
of these agreements limit the time within which an indemnification
claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, we have
entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and
directors, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification
obligations to our agents.
It is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the
maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due
to the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular
agreement. Additionally, we have a limited history of prior
indemnification claims and the payments we have made under such
agreements have not had a material adverse effect on our results of
operations, cash flows, or financial position. However, to the
extent that valid indemnification claims arise in the future,
future payments by us could be significant and could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows
in a particular period. As of December 31, 2012, we did not have
any material indemnification claims that were probable or
reasonably possible.
Legal
Matters
Antitrust Investigations
In June 2011, we received a Civil Investigative Demand
(CID) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Bureau
of Competition and a subpoena from the FTC’s Bureau of
Consumer Protection relating to a review by the FTC of our business
practices, including search and advertising. In June 2012, we also
received a CID and a subpoena duces tecum from the FTC’s
Bureau of Competition seeking documents and information broadly
related to Motorola’s licensing practices for
standards-essential patents and use of standards-essential patents
in litigation. In January 2013, the FTC closed its investigations
into our business practices, including search and advertising. In
connection with the closing of the investigation, we have
voluntarily agreed to make certain product changes. In addition, we
and Motorola have entered into a consent order with the FTC setting
forth certain guidelines on our use of standards-essential patents
in litigation.
State attorneys general from the states of Texas, Ohio,
and Mississippi have issued similar CIDs relating to our business
practices. We are cooperating with the state attorneys general and
are responding to their information requests on an ongoing
basis.
The European Commission’s (EC) Directorate General
for Competition has also opened an investigation into various
antitrust-related complaints against us. Since February 2010, we
have received a number of notifications from the EC about antitrust
complaints filed against us. On November 30, 2010, the EC formally
opened proceedings against us. We believe we have adequately
responded to all of the allegations made against us. We continue to
cooperate with the EC and are pursuing a potential resolution that
would avoid a finding of infringement and a fine. The EC has also
opened an investigation into Motorola’s licensing practices
for standards-essential patents and use of standards-essential
patents in litigation on the basis of complaints brought by
Microsoft and Apple. We are cooperating with the EC and responding
to the information requests on an ongoing
basis.
The Comision Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia in
Argentina, the Competition Commission of India, and the Korea Fair
Trade Commission in South Korea have also opened investigations
into certain business practices.
EPA Investigation
In February 2009, we learned of a U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) investigation into an alleged release of
refrigerant at one of our smaller data center facilities, which we
acquired from DoubleClick, and the accuracy of related statements
and records. We are cooperating with the EPA and have provided
documents and other materials.
Patent and Intellectual Property
Claims
We have had patent, copyright, and trademark infringement
lawsuits filed against us claiming that certain of our products,
services, and technologies, including Android, Google Search,
Google AdWords, Google AdSense, Google Books, Google News, Google
Image Search, Google Chrome, Google Talk, Google Voice, Motorola
devices and YouTube, infringe the intellectual property rights of
others. Adverse results in these lawsuits may include awards of
substantial monetary damages, costly royalty or licensing
agreements, or orders preventing us from offering certain features,
functionalities, products, or services, and may also cause us to
change our business practices, and require development of
non-infringing products or technologies, which could result in a
loss of revenues for us and otherwise harm our business. In
addition, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has
increasingly become an important forum to litigate intellectual
property disputes because an ultimate loss for a company or its
suppliers in an ITC action could result in a prohibition on
importing infringing products into the U.S. Since the U.S. is an
important market, a prohibition on importation could have an
adverse effect on us, including preventing us from importing many
important products into the U.S. or necessitating workarounds that
may limit certain features of our
products.
Furthermore, many of our agreements with our customers and
partners require us to indemnify them for certain intellectual
property infringement claims against them, which would increase our
costs as a result of defending such claims, and may require that we
pay significant damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such
claims. Our customers and partners may discontinue the use of our
products, services, and technologies, as a result of injunctions or
otherwise, which could result in loss of revenues and adversely
impact our business.
In December 2012, we announced that Motorola Mobility had
entered into an agreement with Arris Group, Inc. and certain other
persons providing for the disposition of Motorola’s Home
business for total consideration of approximately $2.35 billion,
subject to certain adjustments. Under the agreement, we have agreed
to indemnify Arris Group for potential liability from certain
intellectual property infringement litigation, including, among
others, a patent infringement claim brought by TiVo relating to
certain digital video recording equipment sold by Motorola
Mobility.
Other
We are also regularly subject to claims, suits, government
investigations, and other proceedings involving competition and
antitrust (such as the pending investigations by the FTC and the EC
described above), intellectual property, privacy, tax, labor and
employment, commercial disputes, content generated by our users,
goods and services offered by advertisers or publishers using our
platforms, personal injury, consumer protection, and other matters.
Such claims, suits, government investigations, and other
proceedings could result in fines, civil or criminal penalties, or
other adverse consequences.
Certain of our outstanding legal matters include
speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of
damages. We record a liability when we believe that it is both
probable that a loss has been incurred, and the amount can be
reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a monthly basis, developments
in our legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that
has been previously accrued, and make adjustments as appropriate.
Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of
there being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such
matters.
With respect to our outstanding legal matters, based on
our current knowledge, we believe that the amount or range of
reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the
aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business,
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash
flows. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently
unpredictable and subject to significant
uncertainties.
We expense legal fees in the period in which they are
incurred.
Income
Taxes
We are under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
and various other tax authorities. We have reserved for potential
adjustments to our provision for income taxes that may result from
examinations by, or any negotiated agreements with, these tax
authorities, and we believe that the final outcome of these
examinations or agreements will not have a material effect on our
results of operations. If events occur which indicate payment of
these amounts is unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would
result in the recognition of tax benefits in the period we
determine the liabilities are no longer necessary. If our estimates
of the federal, state, and foreign income tax liabilities are less
than the ultimate assessment, a further charge to expense would
result.
