NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Time Warner Cable Inc. (NYSE: TWC) today reported financial results for its
first quarter ended March 31, 2009. 

Time Warner Cable Chief Executive Officer Glenn Britt said: "Time Warner Cable
performed well in the first quarter, growing revenues, adjusted OIBDA and free
cash flow from last year. We added very healthy numbers of new subscribers to
our video, high-speed data and phone services, and our commercial services
business continued to grow rapidly." 

Britt added: "We`re excited to be an independent company. Cable is a very good
business, and our operations are strong and growing despite a challenging
economy. We continue to generate very healthy free cash flow which will enable
us to reduce debt over the next year." 

FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
Revenues for the first quarter of 2009increased 5% ($204 million) over the prior
year quarter to $4.4 billion. Subscription revenues grew 6% ($256 million) to
$4.2 billion. Video revenues rose 2% ($64 million) to $2.7 billion, driven by
video price increases and continued growth in digital video subscriptions
partially offset by a year-over-year decrease in basic video subscribers and
premium channel and transactional video-on-demand revenues. High-speed data
revenues increased 11% ($107 million) to $1.1 billion, as a result of continued
residential high-speed data subscriber growth and increased average revenue per
commercial subscriber. Voice revenues were up 23% ($85 million) to $451
million,reflecting growth in Digital Phone subscribers partially offset by a
decrease in average revenue per subscriber. Advertising revenues declined 26%
($52 million) to $145 million due to declines in most advertising categories. 

Adjusted Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted
OIBDA") rose 7% ($103 million) over the first quarter of 2008 to $1.5 billion.
Adjusted OIBDA excludes restructuring costs of $43 million compared to $2
million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted OIBDA benefited from revenue growth,
partially offset by higher video programming, employee and voice costs. Video
programming expenses grew 8% ($74 million) to $1.0 billion, due to contractual
rate increases and the expansion of service offerings, offset in part by lower
costs resulting from a decline in basic video subscribers and declines in
subscriptions to premium channels and transactional video-on-demand purchases.
Employee costs were up 4% ($35 million), resulting primarily from headcount and
salary increases. Voice costs climbed 19% ($24 million) primarily reflecting
growth in Digital Phone subscribers. Marketing expenses declined 11% ($18
million) to $140 million. 

Operating Income was up 13% ($80 million) over the first quarter of 2008 to $716
million, due to higher Adjusted OIBDA and lower depreciation and amortization
expense ($18 million), offset in part by increased restructuring costs ($41
million). 

Net Income Attributable to TWC
For the first quarter of 2009, net income attributable to TWC was $164 million,
or $0.48 per basic and diluted common share, compared to net income attributable
to TWC of $242 million, or $0.74 per basic and diluted common share, for the
first quarter of 2008. 

Certain pretax items in the first quarter of 2009 affected comparability to the
prior year quarter, including $43 million of restructuring costs, $40 million of
costs associated with the Company`s separation from Time Warner Inc., an $11
million benefit from an adjustment to reduce excess amortization recorded in
prior years and a $10 million noncash impairment of the Company`s investment in
The Reserve Fund`s Primary Fund. The $40 million of separation-related costs
consisted of $27 million of direct transaction costs (e.g., legal and
professional fees) and $13 million of debt issuance costs. Additionally, the
income tax provision for the first quarter of 2009 included $38 million of
expense related to certain state tax law changes in California. On an after-tax
basis, these items reduced first-quarter 2009 net income attributable to TWC by
$92 million, or $0.27 per basic and diluted common share. In the first quarter
of 2008, the Company recorded a $9 million gain from the sale of a cost-method
investment, $2 million of restructuring costs, and $2 million of direct
transaction costs associated with the Company`s separation from Time Warner Inc.
On an after-tax basis, these items increased first-quarter 2008 net income
attributable to TWC by $1 million and had no impact per basic and diluted common
share. Excluding the impact of these items, net income attributable to TWC
increased for the first quarter of 2009 compared to the first quarter of 2008,
due primarily to an increase in Operating Income, offset partly by higher
interest expense related to the debt incurred to fund the Company`s $10.9
billion special cash dividend paid in March 2009. 

Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the first three months of 2009 was
$1.1 billion, a decrease of $45 million over the first three months of 2008.
This decrease was primarily driven by higher interest payments offset partly by
higher Adjusted OIBDA and a net tax reimbursement from Time Warner Inc. in
accordance with the companies' tax sharing arrangement. 

Capital Expenditures for the first three months of 2009 totaled $769 million, a
decrease of $77 million compared to the first three months of 2008, largely
reflecting lower residential capital spending, particularly lower residential
customer premise equipment purchases. 

Adjusted OIBDA less Capital Expenditures for the first three months of 2009 was
$738 million, an increase of $180 million, or 32%, over the first three months
of 2008, due to both higher Adjusted OIBDA and lower capital expenditures. 

Free Cash Flow for the first three months of 2009 increased 11% to $367 million
from $331 million in the first three months of 2008, due mainly to lower capital
expenditures, offset partly by a decrease in cash provided by operating
activities. Free cash flow per diluted common share was $1.08 for the first
quarter of 2009 compared to $1.02 in the first quarter of 2008. 

Net debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred equity membership units, as of
March 31, 2009, totaled $23.1 billion compared to $12.6 billion as of December
31, 2008, due to net borrowings to fund the Company`s special cash dividend
payment in March 2009.

Use of Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization, Adjusted
OIBDA and Free Cash Flow
Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization is a financial
measure not calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Company defines Operating Income (Loss)
before Depreciation and Amortization as Operating Income (Loss) before
depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible assets. The
Company also evaluates the performance of its business using Operating Income
(Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization excluding the impact of noncash
impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets, as well as gains and
losses on asset sales, merger-related and restructuring costs and costs
associated with equity awards granted to offset the reduction in value as a
result of the Company`s separation from Time Warner Inc. ("Time Warner") of Time
Warner equity awards held by TWC employees ("Separation-related "make-up" equity
award costs") (referred to herein as "Adjusted OIBDA"). Management utilizes
Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization and Adjusted OIBDA,
among other measures, in evaluating the performance of the Company`s business
because they eliminate the uneven effect across its business of considerable
amounts of depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible assets
recognized in business combinations. Additionally, management utilizes Operating
Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization and Adjusted OIBDA because it
believes these measures provide valuable insight into the underlying performance
of the Company`s individual cable systems by removing the effects of items that
are not within the control of local personnel charged with managing these
systems such as net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests,
income tax benefit (provision), other income (expense), net, and interest
expense, net. Similarly, management uses Adjusted OIBDA less Capital
Expenditures to evaluate the performance of its business because it reflects
management`s capital spending decisions. In this regard, Operating Income (Loss)
before Depreciation and Amortization, Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA less
Capital Expenditures are significant components of measures used in the
Company`s annual incentive compensation programs. 

A limitation of Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization and
Adjusted OIBDA, however, is that they do not reflect the periodic costs of
certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues
in the Company`s business. Moreover, Adjusted OIBDA does not reflect gains and
losses on asset sales, any impairment charge related to goodwill, intangible
assets and fixed assets, merger-related and restructuring costs or
Separation-related "make-up" equity award costs. To compensate for this
limitation, management evaluates the investments in such tangible and intangible
assets through other financial measures, such as capital expenditure budget
variances, investment spending levels and return on capital analyses. Another
limitation of these measures is that they do not reflect the significant costs
borne by the Company for income taxes, debt servicing costs, the share of
Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization and Adjusted OIBDA
related to noncontrolling interests, the results of the Company`s equity
investments or other non-operational income or expense. Management compensates
for this limitation through other financial measures such as a review of net
income (loss) attributable to TWC and net income (loss) attributable to TWC per
common share. 

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Free Cash
Flow as cash provided by operating activities (as defined under GAAP) plus
excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options, less cash provided by
(used by) discontinued operations, capital expenditures, cash paid for other
intangible assets, partnership distributions and principal payments on capital
leases. Management uses Free Cash Flow to evaluate the Company`s business. The
Company believes this measure is an important indicator of its liquidity,
including its ability to reduce net debt and make strategic investments, because
it reflects the Company`s operating cash flow after considering the significant
capital expenditures required to operate its business. A limitation of this
measure, however, is that it does not reflect payments made in connection with
investments and acquisitions, which reduce liquidity. To compensate for this
limitation, management evaluates such expenditures through other financial
measures such as return on investment analyses. 

Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization, Adjusted OIBDA,
Adjusted OIBDA less Capital Expenditures and Free Cash Flow should be considered
in addition to, not as a substitute for, the Company`s Operating Income (Loss),
net income (loss) attributable to TWC 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.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTE TO FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(Unaudited) 

1.CHANGES IN BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Effective January 1, 2009, Time Warner Cable Inc. (the "Company" or "TWC")
adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51 ("FAS 160"). As provided for in FAS 160,
the Company has recast the presentation of noncontrolling interests in the prior
year financial statements so that they are comparable to those of 2009. 

On March 12, 2009, the Company implemented a reverse stock split of all
outstanding and treasury shares of TWC Common Stock at a 1-for-3 ratio. The
Company has recast the presentation of share and per share data in the prior
year financial statements to reflect the reverse stock split. 

Certain other reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial
information to conform to the March 31, 2009 presentation. 

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company revised its definition of Adjusted
Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization to exclude restructuring
costs in addition to the previously excluded items. Additionally, the Company
revised its definition of Free Cash Flow to deduct cash paid for other
intangible assets. These revised definitions have been applied for all periods
presented.
