No, they did expense their options, all of them. Granted, they didn't expense them as would have been required by the current projected standard, but they did expense options. They just amortized all of them over a 5 year period.

Stock options expense would be a bit more than double if it was done the "proper" way, but GOOG's EBITDA was almost $400mm in 2003 so they still would have been profitable.
