(a)			Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 benefited from two additional months of Insight Communications Company, Inc. revenue, which is discussed further in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Residential services revenue

Residential services revenue growth was primarily driven by an increase in high-speed data revenue, partially offset by declines in video and voice revenue.

• The growth in residential high-speed data revenue was the result of an increase in average revenue per subscriber, primarily due to an increase in equipment rental charges and a greater percentage of subscribers purchasing higher-priced tiers of service, as well as year-over-year growth in the number of high-speed data subscribers.
• Residential video revenue decreased driven by declines in video subscribers and premium network revenue (which was reduced by approximately $15 million of subscriber credits issued in connection with a temporary blackout of Showtime resulting from a dispute with CBS), partially offset by price increases and a greater percentage of subscribers purchasing higher-priced tiers of service.
• Residential voice revenue decreased due to a decline in average revenue per subscriber and fewer voice subscribers.

Business services revenue

Business services revenue growth was primarily due to increases in the number of high-speed data and voice subscribers and growth in cell tower backhaul and Metro Ethernet revenue.

Advertising revenue

Advertising revenue decreased primarily due to declines in political advertising revenue.

Other revenue

Other revenue increased primarily as a result of fees from distributors of the Company’s two Los Angeles regional sports networks, which were launched on October 1, 2012.

Adjusted Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted OIBDA”) for the third quarter of 2013 increased 3.0% from the third quarter of 2012 to $2.0 billion. The increase was driven by revenue growth, partially offset by a 2.8% increase in operating expenses.

Operating expenses grew primarily due to higher employee costs, video programming expenses and marketing expenses, as well as costs associated with advertising inventory sold on behalf of other video distributors, partially offset by a decrease in voice costs.

• Employee costs were up 6.9% to $1.2 billion primarily due to an increase in headcount (primarily related to business services) and higher compensation costs per employee. Employee medical costs increased $8 million.
• Video programming expenses grew 2.8% to $1.2 billion due to an increase in average monthly video programming costs per video subscriber, offset in part by a decline in video subscribers. Average monthly video programming costs per video subscriber increased 8.4% year over year to $34.10 for the third quarter of 2013, primarily driven by contractual rate increases and the carriage of new networks. For the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, video programming costs were reduced by approximately $10 million and $5 million, respectively, due to changes in cost estimates for programming services primarily resulting from contract negotiations, changes in programming audit reserves and certain contract settlements.
• Marketing expense increased 6.7% to $176 million and included the impact of increased spending due to the temporary blackouts resulting from the CBS and Journal Communications disputes.
• Voice costs were down 9.9% to $136 million, primarily due to a decrease in delivery costs per subscriber related to the in-sourcing of voice transport, switching and interconnection services, as well as a decline in voice subscribers.

Operating Income for the third quarter of 2013 increased 6.0% from the third quarter of 2012 to $1.2 billion driven by higher Adjusted OIBDA.

(b)			Adjusted OIBDA margin is defined as Adjusted OIBDA as a percentage of total revenue.

Adjusted OIBDA less Capital Expenditures for the first nine months of 2013 totaled $3.6 billion, a 1.5% decrease over the first nine months of 2012, due to higher capital expenditures (primarily driven by growth in scalable infrastructure and business services line extensions), partially offset by higher Adjusted OIBDA. Capital Expenditures were $2.4 billion for the first nine months of 2013.

Net Income Attributable to TWC Shareholders was $532 million, or $1.86 per basic common share and $1.84 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2013 compared to $808 million, or $2.64 per basic common share and $2.60 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2012.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to TWC Shareholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS, which exclude the 2012 SpectrumCo and Clearwire investment-related gains and certain other items affecting the comparability of TWC’s results for 2013 and 2012 detailed in Note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, were $489 million and $1.69, respectively, for the third quarter of 2013 compared to $438 million and $1.41, respectively, for the third quarter of 2012. These increases were primarily due to higher Operating Income and lower interest expense, net, partially offset by a higher income tax provision. Adjusted Diluted EPS for the third quarter of 2013 also benefited from lower average common shares outstanding as a result of share repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase program.

Free Cash Flow for the first nine months of 2013 decreased 6.7% to $1.8 billion from $2.0 billion in the first nine months of 2012, due mainly to an increase in capital expenditures, partially offset by higher cash provided by operating activities. Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the first nine months of 2013 was $4.2 billion, a 0.9% increase from the first nine months of 2012. This increase was driven by higher Adjusted OIBDA and lower pension plan contributions, partially offset by an increase in net income tax payments and a change in working capital requirements.

3. USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In discussing its performance, the Company may use certain measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These measures include OIBDA, Adjusted OIBDA, Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures, Adjusted net income attributable to TWC shareholders, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow, which the Company defines as follows:

• OIBDA (Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization) means Operating Income before depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible assets.
• Adjusted OIBDA means OIBDA excluding the impact, if any, of noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets; gains and losses on asset sales; merger-related and restructuring costs; and costs associated with certain equity awards granted to employees to offset value lost as a result of TWC’s separation from Time Warner on March 12, 2009 (the “Separation”).
• Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures means Adjusted OIBDA minus capital expenditures.
• Adjusted net income attributable to TWC shareholders means net income attributable to TWC shareholders (as defined under GAAP) excluding the impact, if any, of noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets and investments; gains and losses on asset sales; merger-related and restructuring costs; changes in the Company’s equity award reimbursement obligation to Time Warner; certain changes to income tax provision; and costs associated with certain equity awards granted to employees to offset value lost as a result of the Separation; as well as the impact of taxes on the above items. Similarly, Adjusted Diluted EPS means net income per diluted common share attributable to TWC common shareholders excluding the above items.
• Free Cash Flow means cash provided by operating activities (as defined under GAAP) excluding the impact, if any, of cash provided or used by discontinued operations, plus (i) any income taxes paid on investment sales and (ii) any excess tax benefit from equity-based compensation, less (i) capital expenditures, (ii) cash paid for other intangible assets (excluding those associated with business combinations), (iii) partnership distributions to third parties and (iv) principal payments on capital leases.

Management uses OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA, among other measures, in evaluating the performance of the Company’s business because they eliminate the effects of (i) considerable amounts of noncash depreciation and amortization and (ii) items not within the control of the Company’s operations managers (such as income tax provision, other income (expense), net, and interest expense, net). Adjusted OIBDA further eliminates the effects of certain noncash items identified in the definition of Adjusted OIBDA above. Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures also allows management to evaluate performance including the effect of capital spending decisions. Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures are also significant performance measures used in the Company’s annual incentive compensation programs. Adjusted net income attributable to TWC shareholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS are considered important indicators of the operational strength of the Company as these measures eliminate amounts that do not reflect the fundamental performance of the Company. The Company utilizes Adjusted Diluted EPS, among other measures, to evaluate its performance both on an absolute basis and relative to its peers and the broader market. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is an important indicator of the Company’s ability to generate cash, reduce net debt, pay dividends, repurchase common stock and make strategic investments, after the payment of cash taxes, interest and other cash items. In addition, all of these measures are commonly used by analysts, investors and others in evaluating the Company’s performance and liquidity.

These measures have inherent limitations. For example, OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA do not reflect capital expenditures or the periodic costs of certain capitalized assets used in generating revenue. To compensate for such limitations, management evaluates performance through Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures and Free Cash Flow, which reflect capital expenditure decisions, and net income attributable to TWC shareholders, which reflects the periodic costs of capitalized assets. Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures do not reflect any of the items noted as exclusions in the definition of Adjusted OIBDA above. To compensate for these limitations, management evaluates performance through OIBDA and net income attributable to TWC shareholders, which do reflect such items. OIBDA, Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA less capital expenditures also fail to reflect the significant costs borne by the Company for income taxes and debt servicing costs, the results of the Company’s equity investments and other non-operational income or expense. Additionally, Adjusted net income attributable to TWC shareholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect certain charges that affect the operating results of the Company and they involve judgment as to whether items affect fundamental operating performance. Management compensates for these limitations by using other analytics such as a review of net income attributable to TWC shareholders. Free Cash Flow, a liquidity measure, does not reflect payments made in connection with investments and acquisitions, which reduce liquidity. To compensate for this limitation, management evaluates such investments and acquisitions through other measures such as return on investment analyses.

These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, the Company’s Operating Income, net income attributable to TWC shareholders and various cash flow measures (e.g., cash provided by operating activities), as well as other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
