ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

On February 29, 2008, Audible, Inc. (“Audible” or the “Company”) announced its financial results for the fiscal year and fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007 and certain other information. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Audible presents financial measures that are non-GAAP measures, specifically adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is net (loss) income excluding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairment and stock based compensation. Audible believes that this non-GAAP measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of Audible's reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors regarding its performance and overall results of operations. These metrics are an integral part of Audible's internal reporting to measure the performance of the Company and the overall effectiveness of senior management. Reconciliations to comparable GAAP measures are available on the Company's Web site and in the accompanying schedules to the attached press release. The GAAP financial measures presented in the attached press release are consistent with Audible’s historical financial reporting practices. The non-GAAP measures presented in the attached press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies, and are not identical to corresponding measures used in Audible's various agreements or other public filings. Management also presents total cash sales. The measurement of total cash sales is defined as the change in deferred revenue plus consolidated net sales. Management believes that total cash sales is a useful measurement when analyzing period results. For a further description of these non-GAAP financial measures please see the section of the attached press release titled “Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
