CABLEVISION SYSTEMS CORPORATION
REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2015 RESULTS
Bethpage, NY, August 7, 2015 - Cablevision Systems Corporation (NYSE:CVC) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Second quarter consolidated net revenues increased 1.6% to $1.653 billion, consolidated adjusted operating cash flow (“AOCF”)1 decreased 2.7% to $474.3 million and consolidated operating income decreased 4.5% to $244.5 million, all compared with the prior year period.
Operating highlights for the second quarter include:
| |
• | Improved subscriber performance with largest quarterly gains in both customer relationships and high-speed data, in more than two years. |
| |
• | Average Monthly Cable Revenue per Customer ("RPC") of $158.52, an increase of $5.80 or 3.8%, compared with the prior year period. |
| |
• | Year to date Consolidated Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations1 of $207.3 million. |
Cablevision CEO James L. Dolan said, “Cablevision continued to perform well in the second quarter, achieving growth in net revenue and revenue per customer. Over the past three years, we have transformed our company through strategic investments that have made our operations more efficient, increased the reliability and performance of our network, and enhanced our products and the customer experience. This has contributed to our largest quarterly gains in both customer relationships and high-speed data customers in more than two years. We will continue to focus on providing superior service and innovative products that will resonate with consumers.”
| |
1. | See definition of AOCF and Consolidated Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations included in the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures on page 3 of this earnings release. |
Cable
Cable includes our Optimum-branded digital cable television, high-speed Internet and voice services as well as Optimum WiFi, the nation's most robust WiFi network.
Cable net revenues for the second quarter 2015 increased 1.8% to $1.481 billion, AOCF decreased 3.4% to $462.7 million and operating income decreased 4.4% to $268.6 million, all compared with the prior year period. Second quarter net revenue growth primarily reflects rate initiatives and continued disciplined pricing strategies, partially offset by fewer customers and lower advertising revenue. Second quarter AOCF reflects higher programming, legal fees, product development and marketing costs, partially offset by the increase in revenue and lower customer service-related costs, as compared to the prior year period.
The following table illustrates the change in the Cable customer base during the second quarter of 2015:

Lightpath
Lightpath is a premier provider of integrated business communications solutions to large and mid-sized commercial organizations across the New York metropolitan area.
For the second quarter 2015, Lightpath net revenues increased 3.4% to $91.0 million, AOCF increased 11.5% to $43.8 million and operating income increased 19.5% to $20.3 million, each as compared with the prior year period. Second quarter results primarily reflect an increase in revenue from Ethernet services.
Other
Other principally consists of Newsday, News 12 Networks, Cablevision Media Sales Corporation and certain other businesses and unallocated corporate costs.
Second quarter net revenues decreased 3.7% to $91.3 million, AOCF deficit increased 4.3% to $32.1 million and operating loss increased 6.0% to $44.5 million, all compared with the prior year period. Second quarter net revenue decline primarily reflects lower advertising revenue at Newsday, partially offset by increased advertising revenue at News 12 Networks. Second quarter AOCF reflects lower revenue and higher corporate costs, partially offset by a decrease in expenses at Newsday due to lower operating costs.
Other Matters
On August 6, 2015, the Board of Directors of Cablevision declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share on each outstanding share of Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock and Cablevision NY Group Class B Common Stock. This quarterly dividend is payable on September 10, 2015 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 21, 2015.
There were no stock repurchases during the second quarter of 2015. As of June 30, 2015, Cablevision had approximately $455 million available under its stock repurchase authorization.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We define adjusted operating cash flow (“AOCF”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization (including impairments), excluding share-based compensation expense and restructuring charges or credits. Because it is based upon operating income (loss), AOCF also excludes interest expense (including cash interest expense) and other non-operating income and expense items. We believe that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense allows investors to better track the performance of the various operating units of our business without regard to expense associated with awards of restricted shares, restricted stock units and stock options that are not expected to be made in cash.
We present AOCF as a measure of our ability to service our debt and make continuing investments, including in our capital infrastructure. We believe AOCF is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our business segments and the company on a consolidated basis. AOCF and similar measures with similar titles are common performance measures used by investors, analysts and peers to compare performance in our industry. Internally, we use net revenues and AOCF measures as the most important indicators of our business performance, and evaluate management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. AOCF should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, and other measures of performance and/or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Since AOCF is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures with similar titles used by other companies. For a reconciliation of AOCF to operating income (loss), please see page 6 of this release.
We define Consolidated Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations (“Free Cash Flow”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash from operating activities (continuing operations) plus any excess tax benefit related to share-based awards less capital expenditures (continuing operations), all of which are reported in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Net cash from operating activities excludes net cash from operating activities of our discontinued operations. We believe the most comparable GAAP financial measure of our liquidity is net cash from operating activities. We believe that Free Cash Flow is useful as an indicator of our overall liquidity, as the amount of Free Cash Flow generated in any period is representative of cash that is available for debt repayment and other discretionary and non-discretionary cash uses. It is also one of several indicators of our ability to make investments and/or return capital to our shareholders. We also believe that Free Cash Flow is one of several benchmarks used by analysts and investors who follow our industry for comparison of our liquidity with other companies in our industry, although our measure of Free Cash Flow may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.
