    Guidance for the second quarter and full year 2007:
    CyberSource is providing guidance for the second quarter of 2007 based
on information available as of April 19, 2007.

       company expects to process between 262 million and 267 million
       transactions in the second quarter.  GAAP gross profit is expected to
       be $10.3 million, while GAAP operating expenses are expected to be
       $10.8 million.  The company expects to record GAAP net income for the
       second quarter of $0.1 million, or break even earnings per share, based
       on a weighted average share count of 37.5 million shares.  Non-GAAP net
       income for the second quarter is expected to be $2.1 million and non-
       GAAP earnings per share is expected to be $0.06 based on a weighted
       average share count of 37.5 million shares.
    -- For the full year 2007: CyberSource reiterates earlier guidance.  Total
       revenue is expected to be between $90 million and $95 million, GAAP
       gross profit is expected to be between $44.0 million and $45.5 million,

       from reductions in the company's valuation allowance against its
       deferred tax asset.  CyberSource will continue to evaluate whether a
       further reduction is appropriate.  Non-GAAP net income for the full
       year 2007 is expected to be between $13.5 million and $14.5 million or
       $0.36 to $0.38 per share. Non-GAAP earnings per share is based on a

    GAAP versus non-GAAP Results and Guidance
    In addition to financial results presented on a GAAP basis, the company
has provided non-GAAP measures of gross profit, operating expenses, net
income and earnings per share, which are adjusted to exclude certain
non-cash items. For purposes of this release, non-GAAP gross profit,
operating expenses, net income and earnings per share exclude stock based
compensation expense under SFAS 123R, the non-cash portion of the income
tax provision, a reduction in the tax allowance, depreciation and
amortization expense, and certain non-recurring charges and income. A
reconciliation of the historical GAAP to non-GAAP measures is attached with
the financial statements. The company believes that presentation of
non-GAAP financial measures may provide investors with additional
meaningful and relevant financial information. Management believes the
non-GAAP measures help indicate trends in the company's business, and
management uses the non-GAAP measures to plan and forecast future periods.
Non-GAAP information is not determined using GAAP and should not be
considered superior to or as a substitute for GAAP measures or data
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, non-GAAP information may not
be comparable across companies, as other companies may use different
non-GAAP measures. The company does not provide guidance for certain
financial measures such as depreciation and stock-based compensation
expense and as a result, is not able to provide a reconciliation of GAAP
and Non-GAAP financial measures for forward-looking data. The company
intends to calculate the various Non-GAAP financial measures in future
periods consistent with the methodology used in the three months ended
March 31, 2007, as presented in this release.
    "Safe Harbor" statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995
    Statements in this release that are not purely historical are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, including, without limitation, statements regarding the company's
expectations, objectives, anticipations, plans, hopes, beliefs, intentions
or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements in this
release include, without limitation, statements regarding: (1) expanding
gateway and payment options support in Asia, (2) growing demand for the
Managed Risk services, and (3) financial guidance including, without
limitation, those regarding revenue, transaction volume, gross profit,
operating expenses, net income, earnings per share, and deferred tax
assets. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the forward looking statements include risks and uncertainties such as
changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and the application
thereof, changes in customer needs, new products and services offerings by
the company and its competitors, any unforeseen event or any unforeseen
system failures, and other risks indicated in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. It is important to note that actual
outcomes could differ materially from those in such forward-looking
statements. Readers should also refer to the documents filed by CyberSource
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically the annual report
filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2007, and our quarterly
reports filed on Form 10-Q from time to time, all of which identify
important risk factors.
