MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

INTRODUCTION

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition (“MD&A”) is a supplement to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and provides additional information on Time Warner Cable Inc.’s (together with its subsidiaries, “TWC” or the “Company”) business, any recent developments, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. MD&A is organized as follows:

•

Overview. This section provides a general description of TWC’s business, as well as any recent developments the Company believes are important in understanding the results of operations and financial condition or in understanding anticipated future trends. This section also provides a summary of how the Company’s operations are presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

•

Results of operations. This section provides an analysis of the Company’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. This analysis is presented on both a consolidated and reportable segment basis.

•

Financial condition and liquidity. This section provides an analysis of the Company’s financial condition as of September 30, 2015 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

•

Caution concerning forward-looking statements. This section provides a description of the use of forward-looking information appearing in this report, including in MD&A and the consolidated financial statements. Such information is based on management’s current expectations about future events, which are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Form 10-K”) and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 (the “June 2015 Form 10-Q”) for a discussion of the risk factors applicable to the Company.

OVERVIEW

TWC is among the largest providers of video, high-speed data and voice services in the U.S., with technologically advanced, well-clustered cable systems located mainly in five geographic areas – New York State (including New York City), the Carolinas, the Midwest (including Ohio, Kentucky and Wisconsin), Southern California (including Los Angeles) and Texas. TWC’s mission is to connect its customers to the world—simply, reliably and with superior service. As of September 30, 2015, TWC served approximately 15.7 million residential and business services customers who subscribed to one or more of its video, high-speed data and voice services. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, TWC’s revenue increased 3.5% to approximately $17.6 billion.

Recent Developments

Charter Merger

On May 23, 2015, TWC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Mergers (the “Charter Merger Agreement”) with Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”) and certain of its subsidiaries, pursuant to which the parties will engage in a series of transactions (the “Charter merger”) that will result in the Company and Charter becoming 100% owned subsidiaries of a new public parent company (“New Charter”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Charter Merger Agreement.

Upon the consummation of the Charter merger, each share of TWC common stock (other than treasury shares held by the Company and TWC stock held by the Liberty Parties (as defined below)) will be converted into the right to receive, at the option of each stockholder, either (i) $100 in cash and shares of New Charter Class A common stock equivalent to 0.5409 shares of Charter Class A common stock (“Charter common stock”) or (ii) $115 in cash and shares of New Charter Class A common stock equivalent to 0.4562 shares of Charter common stock. Upon the consummation of the Charter merger, subject to certain exceptions, each share of TWC common stock held by Liberty Broadband Corporation or Liberty Interactive Corporation (together, the “Liberty Parties”) will convert only into the right to receive shares of New Charter Class A common stock.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

On September 21, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Charter Merger Agreement, and Charter’s stockholders approved, among other things, the adoption of the Charter Merger Agreement and the issuance of New Charter Class A common stock to TWC stockholders in the Charter merger. The Charter merger is subject to regulatory approvals and certain other closing conditions.

Bright House Networks Transaction

On May 23, 2015, Charter and Advance/Newhouse Partnership (“A/N”) and certain of their affiliates amended an agreement the parties had signed on March 31, 2015 (the “Bright House Networks Agreement”). Under the amended Bright House Networks Agreement, Charter will acquire Bright House Networks, LLC (“Bright House Networks”), subject to, among other conditions, the closing of the Charter merger. Bright House Networks is a 100% owned subsidiary of a partnership (“TWE-A/N”) between A/N and Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLC (“TWCE”), a subsidiary of TWC. The closing of Charter’s acquisition of Bright House Networks is expected to occur concurrently with the closing of the Charter merger. However, the closing of the Charter merger is not conditioned on the closing of the Bright House Networks transaction.

In the Charter Merger Agreement, the Company and TWCE agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their “right of first offer” to acquire the assets of Bright House Networks during the pendency of the Charter merger. This waiver will expire if the Charter Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, provided that the Company or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the Charter Merger Agreement) does not, within nine months following such a termination, enter into an agreement or understanding in respect of, or consummate, an alternative acquisition transaction. As discussed further in “—Financial Statement Presentation—Reportable Segments—Other Operations Segment,” TWC receives a fee from A/N for providing Bright House Networks with high-speed data services and certain management functions, which is included in Other Operations revenue.

Termination of Comcast Merger

On April 24, 2015, Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) and the Company terminated their February 12, 2014 Agreement and Plan of Merger, under which the Company had agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to merge with and into a 100% owned subsidiary of Comcast.

Reportable Segments

The Company has three reportable segments: Residential Services, Business Services and Other Operations, which have been determined based on how management evaluates and manages the business. For additional information about the components of each of the Company’s reportable segments, as well as shared functions, refer to “—Financial Statement Presentation—Reportable Segments,” below.

Residential Services Segment

TWC offers video, high-speed data and voice services, as well as security and home management services, to residential customers. As of September 30, 2015, the Company served 14.9 million residential services customers and, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, TWC generated approximately $14.2 billion of revenue from the provision of residential services, which represented 80.3% of TWC’s total revenue.

TWC’s video service provides over 300 channels (including, on average, over 200 high-definition (“HD”) channels) and over 20,000 video-on-demand choices, which, increasingly, consumers can watch on the device of their choosing, both inside and outside the home. TWC’s high-speed data service is available in a range of speed (from up to 2 to up to 300 megabits per second (“Mbps”) downstream), price and monthly consumption (unlimited, 30 gigabyte (“GB”) and 5 GB) levels and, for most high-speed data customers, includes access to a nationwide network of more than 400,000 Cable WiFi hotspots along with communications and Internet security features. TWC’s voice service provides unlimited calling throughout the U.S. and to Canada, Puerto Rico, Mexico, China, Hong Kong, India, the European Union and Norway, among others, and access to popular features in one simple package. TWC’s IntelligentHome service provides state-of-the-art security and home management technology, taking advantage of TWC’s always-on broadband network and around-the-clock security monitoring centers.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

Residential Services programming costs represent a significant portion of the Company’s operating costs and expenses and are expected to continue to increase, reflecting rate increases on existing programming services and the carriage of new networks. TWC expects that its programming costs as a percentage of video revenue will continue to increase, in part due to an increasingly competitive environment.

Business Services Segment

TWC offers a wide range of business high-speed data, networking, voice, video, hosting and cloud computing services. As of September 30, 2015, TWC served 734,000 business customers, including small and medium businesses; large enterprises; government, education and non-profit institutions; and telecommunications carriers. TWC offers business services at retail and wholesale using its own network infrastructure and third-party infrastructure as required to meet customer needs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, revenue from the provision of business services increased 16.2% to $2.4 billion, which represented 13.7% of TWC’s total revenue. The Company expects continued strong growth in Business Services revenue driven by an increase in the number of customers (the result of continued penetration of buildings currently on its network and investment to connect new buildings to its network) and revenue per customer (due to growing product penetration, demand for higher-priced tiers of service and price increases). Given the large opportunity and TWC’s still modest share in business services, the Company has established a target of growing Business Services to exceed $5 billion in annual revenue by 2018.

Other Operations Segment

TWC’s Other Operations segment principally consists of (i) Time Warner Cable Media (“TWC Media”), the advertising sales arm of TWC; (ii) the Company’s regional sports networks that carry Los Angeles Lakers’ basketball games and other sports programming (Time Warner Cable SportsNet and Time Warner Cable Deportes and, collectively, the “Lakers’ RSNs”); (iii) the Company’s local sports, news and lifestyle channels (e.g., Time Warner Cable News NY1); (iv) other operating revenue and costs, including those derived from A/N and home shopping network-related services; and (v) operating revenue and costs associated with SportsNet LA, a regional sports network carrying the Los Angeles Dodgers’ baseball games and other sports programming. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, TWC generated revenue from Other Operations of $1.2 billion.

As discussed further below in “—Financial Statement Presentation,” TWC Media sells its video and online advertising inventory to local, regional and national advertising customers and also sells third-party advertising inventory on behalf of other video distributors, including, among others, Verizon Communications Inc.’s (“Verizon”) FiOS, AT&T Inc.’s (“AT&T”) U-verse and Charter. Advertising revenue generated by TWC Media is cyclical, benefiting in years that include political elections as a result of political candidate and issue-related advertising.

Competition

The operations of each of TWC’s reportable segments face intense competition, both from existing competitors and, as a result of the rapid development of new technologies, services and products, from new entrants.

Residential Services Segment

TWC faces intense competition for residential customers from a variety of alternative communications, information and entertainment delivery sources. TWC competes with companies providing telecommunication services and direct broadcast satellite services as well as overbuilders across each of its residential services. Some of these competitors offer a broad range of services with features and functions comparable to those provided by TWC and in bundles similar to those offered by TWC, sometimes including wireless service. Each of TWC’s residential services also faces competition from other companies that provide services on a stand-alone basis. TWC’s residential video service faces competition from direct broadcast satellite services, and increasingly from companies that deliver content to consumers over the Internet. TWC’s residential high-speed data service faces competition from wireless Internet providers and direct broadcast satellite services. TWC’s residential voice service faces competition from wireless voice providers, “over-the-top” phone services and other alternatives.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

Business Services Segment

TWC faces significant competition as to each of its business services offerings. Its business high-speed data, networking and voice services face competition from a variety of telecommunications carriers, including incumbent local telephone companies. TWC’s cell tower backhaul service also faces competition from traditional telephone companies as well as other telecommunications carriers, such as metro and regional fiber-based carriers. TWC’s business video service faces competition from direct broadcast satellite providers. TWC also competes with cloud, hosting and related service providers and application-service providers.

Other Operations Segment

TWC faces intense competition in its advertising business across many different platforms and from a wide range of local and national competitors. Competition has increased and will likely continue to increase as new formats for advertising seek to attract the same advertisers. TWC competes for advertising revenue against, among others, local broadcast stations, national cable and broadcast networks, radio, newspapers, magazines and outdoor advertisers, as well as online advertising companies.

Other operating. Other operating costs consist of all other operating costs incurred at the Residential Services, Business Services and Other Operations segments that are not specifically identified above, including Residential Services and Business Services video franchise and other fees.

In addition, other operating costs include functions supporting more than one reportable segment that are centrally managed, including costs associated with facilities (e.g., rent, property taxes and utilities), network operations (e.g., employee costs associated with central engineering activities), vehicles and procurement.

Reportable Segments

The Company’s segment results include intercompany transactions related to programming provided to the Residential Services and Business Services segments by the Lakers’ RSNs, SportsNet LA and the Company’s local sports, news and lifestyle channels. These services are reflected as programming expense for the Residential Services and Business Services segments and as revenue for the Other Operations segment and are eliminated in consolidation. Additionally, the operating costs described above that are associated with broad “corporate” functions or functions supporting more than one reportable segment are recorded as shared functions and are not allocated to the reportable segments.

Residential Services Segment

Revenue. Residential Services segment revenue consists of revenue from video, high-speed data, voice and other services offered to residential subscribers. The Company sells video, high-speed data and voice services to residential subscribers separately and in bundled packages at rates lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Revenue received from subscribers to bundled packages is allocated to each product in a pro-rata manner based on the standalone selling price of each of the respective services.

•

Video. Video revenue includes subscriber fees for the Company’s various tiers or packages of video programming services generally distinguished from one another by the number and type of programming networks they include. Video revenue also includes related equipment rental charges, installation charges, broadcast and sports fees and fees collected on behalf of local franchising authorities and the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”). Additionally, video revenue includes revenue from the sale of premium networks, transactional video-on-demand (e.g., events and movies) and digital video recorder (“DVR”) service.

•

High-speed data. High-speed data revenue primarily includes subscriber fees for the Company’s high-speed data services and related equipment rental and installation charges. The Company offers multiple tiers of high-speed data services providing various service speeds, data usage levels and other attributes to meet the different needs of its subscribers. In addition, high-speed data revenue includes fees received from EarthLink, LLC, whose online services are provided to some of TWC’s customers.

•

Voice. Voice revenue includes subscriber fees for the Company’s voice services, along with related installation charges, as well as fees collected on behalf of governmental authorities.

•

Other. Other revenue includes revenue from security and home management services and other residential subscriber-related fees.

Operating costs and expenses. Residential Services segment operating costs and expenses include the operating costs and expenses that management believes are necessary to assess the performance of and allocate resources to the Residential Services segment. Such costs include programming costs, sales and marketing costs, technical operations costs, customer care costs, video franchise and other fees and other operating costs (e.g., high-speed data connectivity costs, voice network costs and bad debt expense). Employee costs directly attributable to the Residential Services segment are included within each operating cost and expense category as applicable. Operating costs and expenses exclude costs and expenses related to “corporate” functions and functions supporting more than one reportable segment that are centrally managed (e.g., facilities, network operations, vehicles and procurement) and are not within the control of segment management.

Operating costs and expenses. Business Services segment operating costs and expenses include the operating costs and expenses that management believes are necessary to assess the performance of and allocate resources to the Business Services segment. Such costs are consistent with the operating costs and expense categories described above under Residential Services operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses exclude costs and expenses related to “corporate” functions and functions supporting more than one reportable segment that are centrally managed (e.g., facilities, network operations, vehicles and procurement) and are not within the control of segment management.

Revenue. The increase in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was due to increases in revenue at the Residential Services and Business Services segments, partially offset by a decrease at the Other Operations segment. Revenue by segment is discussed in greater detail below in “Segment Results.”

Costs and expenses

Operating costs and expenses. The increase in operating costs and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to increases in programming, employee and maintenance costs, as well as higher content costs associated with SportsNet LA, partially offset by a decline in bad debt expense and, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, lower marketing expense.

For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the increase in employee costs reflects the Company’s continued investments in sales and marketing, technical operations and customer care initiatives and an increase in pension

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

expense of $28 million and $81 million, respectively. The Company expects pension expense to increase to approximately $190 million in 2015 from $81 million in 2014.

Operating costs and expenses by segment are discussed in greater detail below in “Segment Results.”

Depreciation. Depreciation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to the continued investment in customer premise equipment and scalable infrastructure, as well as shorter-lived capitalized software assets.

Merger-related and restructuring costs. Merger-related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows (in millions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Comcast merger:
Employee retention costs	$	—	$	34	$	27	$	103

Advisory and legal fees		9		—		51		—
DukeNet Communications, LLC acquisition		—		(1)		—		3

Merger-related costs	$	41	$	48	$	134	$	163

The Company expects to incur additional merger-related costs in connection with the Charter merger through the closing of the merger.

The Company incurred restructuring costs of $3 million and $18 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, and a net reversal of $2 million and costs of $24 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, primarily related to employee terminations and other exit costs. The Company expects to incur additional restructuring costs during the remainder of 2015.

Operating Income. Operating Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased primarily due to higher operating costs and expenses and depreciation, partially offset by growth in revenue and, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, lower merger-related and restructuring costs, as discussed above.

Interest expense. The decrease in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was impacted by lower average debt outstanding during the periods compared to 2014 and an increase in average interest rates on such debt.

In 2011, in conjunction with SpectrumCo, LLC’s (a joint venture between TWC, Comcast and Bright House Networks) entry into an agreement to sell its advanced wireless spectrum licenses to Cellco Partnership (doing business as Verizon Wireless), TWC and Verizon Wireless entered into agency agreements that allowed TWC to sell Verizon Wireless-branded wireless service, and Verizon Wireless to sell TWC services. Amount represents the settlement of certain terms of the agency agreements in the second quarter of 2015.

Income tax provision. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $223 million and $304 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $854 million and $891 million, respectively. The effective tax rates were 33.8% and 37.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 38.6% and 37.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The income tax provision and effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 include a benefit of $24 million as a result of the passage of the New York State budget during the first quarter of 2014 that, in part, lowers the New York State business tax rate beginning in 2016. Absent the impact of this item, the effective tax rate would have been 38.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The income tax provision and effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2015 include the impact of certain state and local tax items affecting deferred income taxes that were recorded during the third quarter of 2015.

Net income attributable to TWC shareholders and net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders. Net income attributable to TWC shareholders and net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders were as follows (in millions, except per share data):

^(b)	Franchise and other fees include fees collected on behalf of franchising authorities and the FCC.

Video. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the decrease in residential video revenue was due to year-over-year declines in video subscribers and average revenue per subscriber. The decrease in average revenue per subscriber was primarily the result of lower programming tier and transactional video-on-demand revenue, partially offset by growth in video equipment rental and premium network revenue.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the decrease in residential video revenue was due to a year-over-year decline in video subscribers, partially offset by an increase in average revenue per subscriber. The increase in average revenue per subscriber was primarily the result of growth in video equipment rental and premium network revenue and higher transactional video-on-demand revenue (due to the May 2015 Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight), partially offset by lower programming tier revenue.

High-speed data. Residential high-speed data revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased due to an increase in high-speed data subscribers and growth in average revenue per subscriber. The increase in average revenue per subscriber was primarily due to increases in prices and equipment rental charges and a greater percentage of subscribers purchasing higher-priced tiers of service.

Voice. The increase in residential voice revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was due to growth in voice subscribers, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per subscriber.

The decrease in residential voice revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was due to a decrease in average revenue per subscriber, partially offset by growth in voice subscribers.

Operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to higher programming, sales and marketing, technical operations and customer care costs, partially offset by lower other operating costs. Employee costs (which are included in each category, as applicable) were impacted by increased pension costs of $14 million and $43 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

Selected Residential Services average monthly costs per subscriber for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		% Change		2015		2014		% Change

Voice costs per voice subscriber	$	3.56	$	3.95		(9.9%)	$	3.62	$	4.43		(18.3%)

Programming. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the increase in programming costs (which include intercompany expense from the Other Operations segment for programming costs associated with the Lakers’ RSNs, SportsNet LA and the Company’s local sports, news and lifestyle channels) was primarily due to contractual rate increases, partially offset by a year-over-year decline in video subscribers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the increase in programming costs was primarily due to contractual rate increases and the carriage of new networks (including SportsNet LA, which launched on February 25, 2014), partially offset by a year-over-year decline in video subscribers.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to increased sales-related employee costs as a result of higher compensation costs per employee and increased headcount related to the Company’s subscriber growth initiatives. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, this increase was partially offset by lower marketing expense.

Technical operations. Technical operations costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to higher headcount and increased maintenance costs, reflecting subscriber growth, as well as the Company’s continued investments to improve the customer experience.

Customer care. Customer care costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to higher compensation costs per employee and increased headcount, reflecting subscriber growth, as well as the Company’s continued investments to improve the customer experience.

Other operating. Other operating costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased primarily due to lower bad debt expense, partially offset by increases in a number of other categories.

OIBDA. OIBDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased due to higher operating costs and expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenue, as discussed above.

Revenue. Business services revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to growth in high-speed data and voice subscribers and higher wholesale transport revenue. The growth in wholesale transport revenue included an increase in cell tower backhaul revenue of $8 million and $33 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

Operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily as a result of increased headcount and higher compensation costs per employee (including increased pension costs of $5 million and $13 million, respectively) as well as growth in programming and marketing costs.

OIBDA. OIBDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased due to the increase in revenue, partially offset by higher operating costs and expenses, as discussed above.

Employee costs	$	79	$	77		2.6%	$	246	$	240		2.5%

Revenue. Advertising revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased primarily due to lower political advertising revenue, which was $5 million and $10 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $26 million and $52 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. The Company expects advertising revenue in 2015 to decrease compared to 2014 due primarily to a cyclical decline in political advertising revenue.

Other revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to affiliate fees from the Residential Services segment. The Company continues to seek additional distribution agreements for the carriage of SportsNet LA by major distributors.

Operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily as a result of higher content costs associated with SportsNet LA. Employee costs were impacted by increased pension costs of $2 million and $4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

OIBDA. OIBDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased primarily due to an increase in operating costs and expenses and a decrease in revenue, as discussed above.

Operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased primarily due to higher compensation costs per employee and increased maintenance and, for the three months ended September 30, 2015, insurance expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, these increases were partially offset by lower costs as a result of operating efficiencies. Pension costs increased $7 million and $21 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

Merger-related and restructuring costs. Refer to “Consolidated Results—Costs and expenses—Merger-related and restructuring costs” for detail of merger-related and restructuring costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Management believes that cash generated by or available to TWC should be sufficient to fund its capital and liquidity needs for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter, including quarterly dividend payments and maturities of long-term debt. TWC’s sources of cash include cash and equivalents on hand, cash provided by operating activities and borrowing capacity under the Company’s $3.5 billion senior unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and the Company’s $2.5 billion unsecured commercial paper program (which is supported by unused committed capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility), as well as access to capital markets.

In accordance with the Company’s investment policy of diversifying its investments and limiting the amount of its investments in a single entity or fund, the Company may invest its cash and equivalents in a combination of money market and government funds and U.S. Treasury securities, as well as other similar instruments.

TWC’s unused committed financial capacity was $3.922 billion as of September 30, 2015, reflecting $485 million of cash and equivalents and $3.437 billion of available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Current Financial Condition

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $22.695 billion of debt, $485 million of cash and equivalents (net debt of $22.210 billion, defined as total debt less cash and equivalents) and $8.745 billion of total TWC shareholders’ equity. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $23.718 billion of debt, $707 million of cash and equivalents (net debt of $23.011 billion) and $8.013 billion of total TWC shareholders’ equity.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

The following table shows the significant items contributing to the change in net debt from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015 (in millions):


Balance as of December 31, 2014	$	23,011
Cash provided by operating activities		(4,706)
Capital expenditures		3,500
Dividends paid		648
Proceeds from exercise of stock options		(121)
Proceeds from settlement of Verizon Wireless agency agreement		(120)
All other, net		(2)

Balance as of September 30, 2015	$	22,210

On September 17, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.75 per share of TWC common stock, payable in cash on October 22, 2015 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 1, 2015.

Cash Flows

Cash and equivalents decreased $222 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and increased $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Components of these changes are discussed below in more detail.

Operating Activities

Details of cash provided by operating activities are as follows (in millions):


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014
Operating Income	$	3,114	$	3,406
Depreciation		2,638		2,394
Amortization		102		101
Noncash equity-based compensation		119		138
Cash paid for interest, net^(a)		(1,137)		(1,187)
Cash paid for income taxes, net^(b)		(264)		(286)
All other, net, including working capital changes		134		(26)

Cash provided by operating activities	$	4,706	$	4,540

^(a)	Amounts include cash received under interest rate swap contracts of $65 million and $92 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

^(b)	Amounts include cash refunds of income taxes of $15 million and $14 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Cash provided by operating activities increased from $4.540 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to $4.706 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was primarily related to changes in working capital requirements and decreases in cash paid for interest, net, and cash paid for income taxes, net, partially offset by a decrease in Operating Income (excluding depreciation and amortization).

On December 19, 2014, the Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2014 was enacted, extending bonus depreciation deductions of 50% of the cost of the Company’s qualified 2014 capital expenditures. Due to the late enactment of this Act, the Company made all 2014 income tax payments as if bonus depreciation was not going to be extended. This resulted in a 2014 overpayment of approximately $120 million, the application of which reduced the Company’s cash paid for income taxes, net, in the first nine months of 2015. The Company expects cash paid for income taxes, net, to be higher in 2015 than in 2014 primarily as a result of the reversal of prior year bonus depreciation benefits, partially offset by the application of the 2014 overpayment.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

Cash paid for interest, net, decreased primarily as a result of the maturities of TWC’s 8.25% senior notes due February 2014 ($750 million in aggregate principal amount), 7.50% senior notes due April 2014 ($1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount) and 3.50% senior notes due February 2015 ($500 million in aggregate principal amount).

The Company made no cash contributions to its qualified defined benefit pension plans (the “qualified pension plans”) during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, the qualified pension plans and the nonqualified defined benefit pension plan (the “nonqualified pension plan”) were estimated to be underfunded by $316 million. The Company may make discretionary cash contributions to the qualified pension plans in 2015. Such contributions will be dependent on a variety of factors, including current and expected interest rates, asset performance, the funded status of the qualified pension plans and management’s judgment. For the nonqualified pension plan, the Company will continue to make contributions during the remainder of 2015 to the extent benefits are paid.

Cash used by investing activities	$	(3,406)	$	(3,172)

^(a)	Refer to “Results of Operations—Consolidated Results—Other income, net” for additional information.

Cash used by investing activities increased from $3.172 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to $3.406 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, principally due to an increase in capital expenditures, partially offset by the proceeds from the settlement of certain terms of an agency agreement with Verizon Wireless. The increase in capital expenditures was due to customer relationship growth, as well as the Company’s investments to improve network reliability, upgrade older customer premise equipment and expand its network to additional residences, commercial buildings and cell towers.

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

7.50% senior notes due April 2014 ($1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount), payments of quarterly cash dividends and repurchases of TWC common stock (prior to the suspension of the Stock Repurchase Program), partially offset by borrowings under the Company’s commercial paper program.

Outstanding Debt and Available Financial Capacity

Debt as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was as follows:


			Outstanding Balance as of
	Maturity	Interest Rate	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014

^(a)	Outstanding balance amounts of the TWC notes and debentures as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 each include £1.267 billion of senior unsecured notes valued at $1.916 billion and $1.973 billion, respectively, using the exchange rates at each date.

^(b)	Rate represents a weighted-average effective interest rate as of September 30, 2015 and, for the TWC notes and debentures, includes the effects of interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps.

^(c)

Outstanding balance amounts of the TWCE debentures as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 include an unamortized fair value adjustment of $57 million and $61 million, respectively, primarily consisting of the fair value adjustment recognized as a result of the 2001 merger of America Online, Inc. and Time Warner Inc.

^(d)	As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $3.437 billion of available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility (which reflects a reduction of $63 million for outstanding letters of credit backed by the Revolving Credit Facility).

^(e)	Outstanding balance amounts of total debt as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 include current maturities of long-term debt of $6 million and $1.017 billion, respectively.

See the 2014 Form 10-K for further details regarding the Company’s outstanding debt and other financing arrangements, including certain information about maturities, covenants and rating triggers related to such debt and financing arrangements. As of September 30, 2015, TWC was in compliance with the leverage ratio covenant of the Revolving Credit Facility, with a ratio of consolidated total debt as of September 30, 2015 to consolidated EBITDA for the twelve months ended September 30, 2015 of approximately 2.7 times. In accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility agreement, consolidated total debt as of September 30, 2015 was calculated as (a) total debt per the accompanying consolidated balance sheet less the TWCE unamortized fair value adjustment (discussed above) and the fair value of debt subject to interest rate swaps, less (b) total cash per the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in excess of $25 million. In accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility agreement, consolidated EBITDA for the twelve months ended September 30, 2015 was calculated as Operating Income plus depreciation, amortization and equity-based compensation expense.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)

TWC’s other filings made from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) after the date of this report. In addition, important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those in its forward-looking statements include:

•

increased competition from wireline and wireless telecommunications carriers, direct broadcast satellite operators and companies that deliver programming over the Internet;

•

the Company’s continued ability to exploit new and existing technologies that appeal to residential and business services customers and advertisers;

•

changes in the regulatory and tax environments in which the Company operates, including, among others, regulation of broadband Internet services, “net neutrality” rules recently adopted by the FCC and federal, state and local taxation;

•

increased difficulty negotiating programming and retransmission agreements on favorable terms, resulting in increased costs to the Company and/or the loss of popular programming; and

•

changes or delays in, or impediments to executing on, the Company’s plans, initiatives and strategies, including the proposed Charter merger.

Any forward-looking statements made by the Company in this document speak only as of the date on which they are made.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Co-Chief Financial Officers, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Charter Merger

Bright House Networks Transaction

In the Charter Merger Agreement, the Company and TWCE agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their “right of first offer” to acquire the assets of Bright House Networks during the pendency of the Charter merger. This waiver will expire if the Charter Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, provided that the Company or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the Charter Merger Agreement) does not, within nine months following such a termination, enter into an agreement or understanding in respect of, or consummate, an alternative acquisition transaction. TWC receives a fee from A/N for providing Bright House Networks with high-speed data services and certain management functions, which is included in Other Operations revenue.

Termination of Comcast Merger

On April 24, 2015, Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) and the Company terminated their February 12, 2014 Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Comcast Merger Agreement”), under which the Company had agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to merge with and into a 100% owned subsidiary of Comcast.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of TWC and all entities in which TWC has a controlling voting interest. The consolidated financial statements include the results of TWE-A/N only for the TWE-A/N cable systems that are controlled by TWC and for which TWC holds an economic interest. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include accounting for allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, business combinations, derivative financial instruments, pension benefits, equity-based compensation, income taxes, loss contingencies, certain programming arrangements and asset impairments. Allocation methodologies used to prepare the consolidated financial statements are based on estimates and have been described in the notes, where appropriate.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial information to conform to the current year presentation.

Interim Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, they contain all the adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP applicable to interim periods. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of TWC included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

2.	RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board the (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most recent current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting for certain incremental costs of obtaining a contract and costs to fulfill a contract with a customer. Entities have the option of applying either a full retrospective approach to all periods presented or a modified approach that reflects differences prior to the date of adoption as an adjustment to equity. In July 2015, the FASB deferred

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

the effective date of this guidance by one year. As such, this guidance will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2018 and the Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for the purpose of simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. Under this guidance, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are required to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of such debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this guidance. Entities will be required to apply a full retrospective approach to all periods presented. This guidance will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2016 and, upon adoption, debt issuance costs capitalized in other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheet will be reclassified and presented as a reduction to current and noncurrent long-term debt. As of September 30, 2015, debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization, recognized in the consolidated balance sheet totaled $94 million, of which $10 million is recorded in other current assets.

Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement

In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for the purpose of clarifying the accounting for cloud computing arrangements by providing criteria for determining whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under this guidance, if it is determined that a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses; however, if it is determined that a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. Entities have the option of applying either a full retrospective approach to all periods presented or a prospective approach to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date. This guidance will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2016 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3.	EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders is determined using the two-class method and is computed by dividing net income attributable to TWC common shareholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines income per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Diluted net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders reflects the more dilutive earnings per share amount calculated using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of net income attributable to TWC common shareholders per basic and diluted common share (in millions, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Net income attributable to TWC common shareholders	$	434	$	495	$	1,343	$	1,464

TWC common shareholders:
Basic	$	1.53	$	1.77	$	4.76	$	5.25

Diluted	$	1.53	$	1.76	$	4.74	$	5.22

^(a)	Restricted stock units granted to employees and non-employee directors are considered participating securities with respect to regular quarterly cash dividends.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the computation of diluted net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders excludes 0.8 million of potential common shares related to the Company’s equity-based compensation plan, because the inclusion of such shares would have an antidilutive effect. For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, antidilutive common shares related to the Company’s equity-based compensation plan were insignificant.

4.	GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

As of the Company’s July 1, 2015 annual testing date and based on its qualitative assessment, the Company determined that it was not more likely than not that its cable franchise rights and goodwill were impaired and, therefore, the Company did not perform a quantitative assessment as part of its annual impairment testing. In making that determination, management identified and analyzed qualitative factors, including factors that would most significantly impact a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis of the fair values of the cable franchise rights and the fair values of the Company’s reporting units. This process included a review of the Company’s most recent projections, analysis of operating results versus the prior year and budget, changes in market values, changes in discount rates and changes in terminal growth rate assumptions.

5.	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The fair values of assets and liabilities associated with derivative financial instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of the following (in millions):


	Assets				Liabilities
	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Interest rate swaps^(a)(b)	$	117	$	93	$	—	$	19
Cross-currency swaps^(a)(c)		139		197		37		—

Total	$	256	$	290	$	37	$	19

^(a)

Interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts with multiple counterparties are subject to contractual terms that provide for the net settlement of all such contracts with each counterparty, including cash collateral received or paid, through a single payment in the event of default on or termination of any one contract by either party. The fair values of the assets and liabilities associated with interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps are presented on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheet and are classified as current or noncurrent based on the maturity date of the respective contract.

^(b)

The fair value of assets associated with interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2015 is recorded in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Of the total fair value of assets associated with interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2014, $1 million is recorded in other current assets with the remainder recorded in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of liabilities associated with interest rate swaps are recorded in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

^(c)	The fair values of assets and liabilities associated with cross-currency swaps are recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheet.

Fair Value Hedges

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk by effectively converting fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt. Under such contracts, the Company is entitled to receive semi-annual interest payments at fixed rates and is required to make semi-annual interest payments at variable rates, without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Such contracts are designated as fair value hedges. The Company recognized no gain or loss related to its interest rate swaps because the changes in the fair values of such instruments were completely offset by the changes in the fair values of the hedged fixed-rate debt. The fair value of interest rate swaps was determined using a DCF analysis based on the terms of the contract and expected forward interest rates, and incorporates the credit risk of the Company and each counterparty (a Level 2 fair value measurement). The following table summarizes the terms of existing fixed to variable interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:


	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Maturities		2017-2019		2015-2019
Notional amount (in millions)	$	5,600	$	6,100
Weighted-average pay rate (variable based on LIBOR plus variable margins)		5.16%		4.78%
Weighted-average receive rate (fixed)		6.86%		6.58%

The notional amounts of interest rate instruments, as presented in the above table, are used to measure interest to be paid or received and do not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses cross-currency swaps to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign currency denominated debt by effectively converting foreign currency denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to U.S. dollar denominated debt. Such contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The Company has entered into cross-currency swaps to effectively convert its £1.275 billion aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate British pound sterling denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to fixed-rate

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

U.S. dollar denominated debt. The cross-currency swaps have maturities of June 2031 and July 2042. The fair value of cross-currency swaps was determined using a DCF analysis based on expected forward interest and exchange rates, and incorporates the credit risk of the Company and each counterparty (a Level 2 fair value measurement). The following table summarizes the effect of cash flow hedges on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in millions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Deferred loss recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) (effective portion)	$	(157)	$	(19)	$	(99)	$	(98)
Deferred loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net, into other income, net (effective portion)^(a)		(75)		(113)		(57)		(44)

^(a)	Deferred gains (losses) on cross-currency swaps were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net, into other income, net, which offsets the re-measurement gains (losses) recognized in other income, net, on the British pound sterling denominated debt.

Any ineffectiveness related to cash flow hedges has been and is expected to be insignificant.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include equity-method investments, long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. The Company reviews the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually as of July 1 for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the asset be reduced to its fair value. Refer to Note 4 for further details regarding the Company’s fair value analysis of cable franchise rights and goodwill.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The Company’s other financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include (a) cash and equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and borrowings under the Company’s commercial paper program, which are reflected at cost in the consolidated balance sheet, and (b) TWC senior notes and debentures and TWCE senior debentures (collectively, the “senior notes and debentures”) not subject to fair value hedge accounting, which are reflected at amortized cost in the consolidated balance sheet. With the exception of the senior notes and debentures, cost approximates fair value for these instruments due to their short-term nature. The carrying value and related estimated fair value of the senior notes and debentures was $22.617 billion and $23.614 billion, respectively, as of September 30, 2015 and $23.126 billion and $27.842 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2014. Estimated fair values for the senior notes and debentures are determined by reference to the market value of the instrument as quoted on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market (a Level 1 fair value measurement).

TWC is authorized under the Company’s stock incentive plan (the “2011 Plan”) to grant restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and options to purchase shares of TWC common stock to its employees and non-employee directors. As of September 30, 2015, the 2011 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 20.0 million shares of TWC common stock, of which 8.3 million shares were available for grant.

Stock options		2		5		10		17

Total equity-based compensation expense^(a)	$	40	$	45	$	119	$	138

^(a)

Amounts include $13 million and $17 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $32 million and $40 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of equity-based compensation expense recognized in merger-related and restructuring costs in the consolidated statement of operations related to certain retention grants (as defined below).

Restricted Stock Units

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, TWC granted 926,000 RSUs subject to time-based vesting at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $178.62 per RSU. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, TWC granted 3.778 million RSUs at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $135.72 per RSU, which included 143,000 RSUs subject to performance-based vesting conditions (“PBUs”) at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $135.31 per PBU. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs as of September 30, 2015, without taking into account expected forfeitures, was $473 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 3.72 years, without taking into account acceleration of vesting.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the Charter Merger Agreement, the Company advanced into 2015 its annual grants of equity awards that would otherwise have been made in 2017. As a result, eligible employees were granted RSUs having a value equal to (and with vesting terms consistent with) those that these employees otherwise would have received in 2017 (the “2015 retention grant”), but without performance-based vesting conditions. Specifically, the 2015 retention grant will vest 50% in February of 2020 and 50% in February of 2021, subject to continued employment. If the grantee’s employment is terminated prior to the date on which the 2015 retention grant would have normally been made (i.e., February 2017), such retention grant would be forfeited, absent a change in control of the Company prior to such termination of employment.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the Comcast Merger Agreement, the Company advanced into 2014 its annual grant of equity awards that would otherwise have been made in 2015 and 2016. As a result, eligible employees were granted RSUs having a value equal to (and with vesting terms consistent with) those that these employees otherwise would have received in each of 2015 and 2016 (the “2014 retention grants” and, together with the 2015 retention grant, the “retention grants”), but without performance-based vesting conditions. Specifically, the retention grant corresponding to the 2015 annual grant will vest 50% in February of 2018 and 50% in February of 2019 and the retention grant corresponding to the 2016 annual grant will vest 50% in February of 2019 and 50% in February of 2020, in each case, subject to continued employment. If the grantee’s employment were terminated prior to the date on which either retention grant would have normally been made (i.e., February 2015 or 2016, as appropriate), such retention grant would be forfeited, absent a change in control of the Company prior to such termination of employment.

Employees who received the retention grants will generally not be eligible for additional annual equity awards with respect to 2015, 2016 or 2017 absent a change of responsibilities or other circumstances. Consequently, whether or not the Charter merger is consummated, both the employee and the Company would generally be in the same position they would have been in had the RSUs been granted in accordance with the anticipated schedule.

With the exception of the retention grants discussed above, RSUs, including PBUs, generally vest 50% on each of the third and fourth anniversary of the grant date, subject to continued employment and, in the case of PBUs, subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. RSUs generally provide for accelerated vesting upon the termination of the grantee’s employment after reaching a specified age and years of service or upon a termination of the grantee’s employment within 24 months following a change in control of the Company and, in the case of PBUs, subject to

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. PBUs are subject to forfeiture if the applicable performance condition is not satisfied. RSUs awarded to non-employee directors are not subject to vesting or forfeiture restrictions and the shares underlying the RSUs will generally be issued in connection with a director’s termination of service as a director. Pursuant to the directors’ compensation program, certain directors with more than three years of service on the Board of Directors have elected an in-service vesting period for their RSU awards. Holders of RSUs are generally entitled to receive cash dividend equivalents or retained distributions related to regular cash dividends or other distributions, respectively, paid by TWC. In the case of PBUs, the receipt of the dividend equivalents is subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. Retained distributions are subject to the vesting requirements of the underlying RSUs. Upon the vesting of a RSU, shares of TWC common stock may be issued from authorized but unissued shares or from treasury stock, if any.

Stock Options

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, TWC granted no stock options. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options as of September 30, 2015, without taking into account expected forfeitures, was $10 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 1.20 years, without taking into account acceleration of vesting.

Stock options, including stock options subject to performance-based vesting conditions (“PBOs”), have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of TWC common stock at the date of grant. Generally, stock options vest ratably over a four-year vesting period and expire ten years from the date of grant, subject to continued employment and, in the case of PBOs, subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance condition. Certain stock option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon the termination of the grantee’s employment after reaching a specified age and years of service or upon a termination of the grantee’s employment within 24 months following a change in control of the Company and, in the case of PBOs, subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. PBOs are subject to forfeiture if the applicable performance condition is not satisfied. Upon the exercise of a stock option, shares of TWC common stock may be issued from authorized but unissued shares or from treasury stock, if any.

8.	PENSION COSTS

TWC sponsors the Time Warner Cable Pension Plan (the “TWC Pension Plan”) and the Time Warner Cable Union Pension Plan (the “Union Pension Plan” and, together with the TWC Pension Plan, the “qualified pension plans”), both qualified defined benefit pension plans, that together provide pension benefits to a majority of the Company’s employees. TWC also provides a nonqualified defined benefit pension plan for certain employees (the “nonqualified pension plan” and, together with the qualified pension plans, the “pension plans”). Pension benefits are based on formulas that reflect the employees’ years of service and compensation during their employment period. TWC uses a December 31 measurement date for its pension plans. The components of net periodic benefit costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is as follows (in millions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Service cost	$	58	$	43	$	172	$	129
Interest cost		37		36		110		108

Amounts amortized		10		(1)		31		(2)

Net periodic benefit costs	$	48	$	20	$	142	$	61

The Company made no cash contributions to the qualified pension plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2015; however, the Company may make discretionary cash contributions to the qualified pension plans in 2015. Such contributions will be dependent on a variety of factors, including current and expected interest rates, asset performance, the funded status of the qualified pension plans and management’s judgment. For the nonqualified pension plan, the Company will continue to make contributions during the remainder of 2015 to the extent benefits are paid.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company classifies its operations into the following three reportable segments, which have been determined based on how management evaluates and manages the business:

•

Residential Services, which principally consists of video, high-speed data and voice services provided to residential customers as well as other residential services, including security and home management services.

•

Business Services, which principally consists of data, video and voice services provided to business customers as well as other business services, including enterprise-class, cloud-enabled hosting, managed applications and services.

•

Other Operations, which principally consists of (i) Time Warner Cable Media (“TWC Media”), the advertising sales arm of TWC, (ii) TWC-owned and/or operated regional sports networks (“RSNs”) and local sports, news and lifestyle channels (e.g., Time Warner Cable News NY1) and (iii) other operating revenue and costs, including those derived from A/N and home shopping network-related services. The business units reflected in the Other Operations segment individually do not meet the thresholds to be reported as separate reportable segments.

In addition to the above reportable segments, the Company has shared functions (referred to as “Shared Functions”) that include activities not attributable to a specific reportable segment. Shared Functions consists of operating costs and expenses associated with broad “corporate” functions (e.g., accounting and finance, information technology, executive management, legal and human resources) or functions supporting more than one reportable segment that are centrally managed (e.g., facilities, network operations, vehicles and procurement) as well as other activities not attributable to a reportable segment. As such, the reportable segment results reflect how management views such segments in assessing financial performance and allocating resources and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that each segment would have achieved had they operated as stand-alone entities during the periods presented.

In evaluating the profitability of the Company’s segments, the components of net income (loss) below OIBDA, as defined below, are not separately evaluated by management at the segment level. Due to the nature of the Company’s operations, a majority of its assets, including its distribution systems, are utilized across the Company’s operations and are not segregated by segment. In addition, segment assets are not reported to, or used by, management to allocate resources or

assess the performance of the Company’s segments. Accordingly, the Company has not disclosed asset information by segment.

Use of OIBDA

Management uses Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization (“OIBDA”), among other measures, in evaluating the segment’s performance because it eliminates 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,

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

other income (expense), net, and interest expense). Management also uses this measure to evaluate the Company’s consolidated operating performance and to allocate resources and capital to the segments. Performance measures derived from OIBDA are also used in the Company’s annual incentive compensation programs. In addition, this measure is commonly used by analysts, investors and others in evaluating the Company’s performance.

This measure has inherent limitations. For example, OIBDA does not reflect capital expenditures or the periodic costs of certain capitalized assets used in generating revenue. To compensate for such limitations, management evaluates the Company’s consolidated performance through, among other measures, various cash flow measures, which reflect capital expenditure decisions, and net income attributable to TWC shareholders, which reflects the periodic costs of capitalized assets. OIBDA also fails 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. Management compensates for these limitations by using other analytics such as a review of net income attributable to TWC shareholders.

This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s Operating Income and net income attributable to TWC shareholders, as well as other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

In connection with the formerly proposed Comcast merger, eight putative class action complaints were filed on behalf of purported TWC stockholders in the New York Supreme Court (the “NY Actions”) and the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. These complaints named as defendants TWC, the members of the TWC board of directors, Comcast and Comcast’s merger subsidiary. The complaints generally alleged, among other things, that the members of the TWC board of directors breached their fiduciary duties to TWC stockholders during merger negotiations and by entering into the Comcast Merger Agreement and approving the Comcast merger, and that Comcast aided and abetted such breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaints further alleged that the joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by Comcast with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 20, 2014 was misleading or omitted certain material information. The complaints sought, among other relief, compensatory damages in an unspecified amount, injunctive relief and costs and fees. The parties entered into a settlement agreement, conditioned inter alia on the consummation of the Comcast merger. Now that the Comcast Merger Agreement has been terminated, the settlement is no longer operative, although the plaintiffs have the right to petition the court for the award of attorneys’ fees and TWC has the right to oppose that application. Following the announcement of the Charter merger on May 26, 2015, on June 29, 2015, the parties in the NY Actions filed a stipulation agreeing that plaintiffs could file a Second Consolidated Class Action Complaint (the “Second Amended Complaint”), and dismissing with prejudice Comcast and Comcast’s merger subsidiary. After the court so ordered the stipulation, the plaintiffs in the NY Actions filed the Second Amended Complaint on July 1, 2015. The Second Amended Complaint names as defendants TWC, the members of the TWC board of directors, Charter and the merger subsidiaries. The Second Amended Complaint generally alleges, among other things, that the members of the TWC board of directors breached their fiduciary duties to TWC stockholders during the Charter merger negotiations and by entering into the Charter Merger Agreement and approving the Charter merger, and that Charter and its subsidiaries aided and abetted such breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaint seeks, among other relief, injunctive relief enjoining the shareholder vote on the Charter merger, unspecified declaratory and equitable relief, compensatory damages in an unspecified amount, and costs and fees. On September 9, 2015, the parties in the NY Actions entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”), which reflects an agreement in principle to settle the case. Pursuant to the MOU, all litigation deadlines are stayed pending negotiation, execution of a settlement agreement by December 9, 2015, and final approval of the agreement. The Company believes that the claims asserted against it are without merit and, if the settlement does not receive final approval by the New York Supreme Court or otherwise is not consummated, intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

On December 19, 2011, Sprint Communications Company L.P. (“Sprint”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas alleging that the Company infringes 12 patents purportedly relating to Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) services. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified monetary damages as well as injunctive relief. On October 8, 2015, the court stayed this litigation based on a judgment in a parallel case against Cox Communications, Inc. (“Cox

Communications”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware invalidating six of the 12 patents at issue in that litigation. The stay applies to all 12 patents in Sprint’s complaint against the Company, and the Company expects it to remain in effect during the pendency of Sprint’s appeal against Cox Communications. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

On December 5, 2014, Broadband iTV, Inc. filed an amended complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Hawaii alleging that the Company infringes a patent purportedly relating to the Company’s delivery of digital video on demand services and seeking monetary and injunctive relief. The complaint also names Hawaiian Telecom, Inc. (“Hawaiian Telecom”) as a defendant. On January 9, 2015, the Company answered the amended complaint and moved to sever the allegations against the Company from those against Hawaiian Telecom. On April 16, 2015, the court severed the allegations against the Company from those against Hawaiian Telecom, but consolidated the cases for pre-trial purposes. The court issued a claim construction order on June 24, 2015 and the parties have exchanged expert reports on the issues of infringement, validity and damages. On September 29, 2015, the court granted the Company’s summary judgment motion invalidating the patent and dismissing the litigation with prejudice. On October 9, 2015, the plaintiff appealed this decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

The Company is the defendant in In re: Set-Top Cable Television Box Antitrust Litigation, ten purported class actions filed in federal district courts throughout the U.S. These actions are subject to a Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL”) Order transferring the cases for pretrial proceedings to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On July 26, 2010, the plaintiffs filed a third amended consolidated class action complaint (the “Third Amended Complaint”), alleging that the Company violated Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, various state antitrust laws and state unfair/deceptive trade practices statutes by tying the sales of premium cable television services to the leasing of set-top converter boxes. The plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, unspecified treble monetary damages and an injunction to cease such alleged practices. On September 30, 2010, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Third Amended Complaint, which the court granted on April 8, 2011. On June 17, 2011, the plaintiffs appealed this decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

From time to time, the Company receives notices from third parties and, in some cases, is party to litigation alleging that certain of the Company’s services or technologies infringe the intellectual property rights of others. Claims of intellectual property infringement could require TWC to enter into royalty or licensing agreements on unfavorable terms, incur substantial monetary liability or be enjoined preliminarily or permanently from further use of the intellectual property in question. In addition, certain agreements entered into by the Company may require it to indemnify the other party for certain third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which could increase the Company’s damages and its costs of defending against such claims. Even if the claims are without merit, defending against the claims can be time consuming and costly.

Other Matters

The California Attorney General and the Alameda County, California District Attorney are investigating whether certain of the Company’s waste disposal policies, procedures and practices are in violation of the California Business and Professions Code and the California Health and Safety Code. These entities are seeking injunctive relief, unspecified civil penalties and attorneys’ fees. While the Company is unable to predict the outcome of this investigation, it does not believe that the outcome will have a material effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

In March 2003, the interests in cable networks and filmed entertainment held by Time Warner Entertainment Company, L.P. (“TWE”) were transferred to Time Warner and all of Time Warner’s interests in cable systems were transferred to the Company (the “TWE Restructuring”). As part of the TWE Restructuring, Time Warner agreed to indemnify the Company from and against any and all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from specified litigation matters brought against the TWE non-cable businesses (and assumed by TWCE in connection with various internal reorganizations). Although Time Warner has agreed to indemnify the Company against such liabilities, TWE (as assumed by TWCE) remains a named party in certain litigation matters.

The costs and other effects of future litigation, governmental investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings (whether civil or criminal), settlements, judgments and investigations, claims and changes in pending matters (including those matters described above), and developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to intellectual property rights and intellectual property licenses, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations (including comprehensive income) and cash flows of (i) Time Warner Cable Inc. (the “Parent Company”), (ii) Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLC (“TWCE” or the “Guarantor Subsidiary”), a direct 100% owned subsidiary of the Parent Company, (iii) the direct and indirect non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) on a combined basis and (iv) the eliminations necessary to arrive at the information for Time Warner Cable Inc. on a consolidated basis. The Guarantor Subsidiary has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the debt securities issued by the Parent Company in its 2007 registered exchange offer and subsequent public offerings. The Parent Company directly owns all of the voting and economic interests of the Guarantor Subsidiary.

There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Company’s ability to obtain funds from any of its 100% owned subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances.

These condensed consolidating financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Time Warner Cable Inc.

Basis of Presentation

In presenting the condensed consolidating financial statements, the equity method of accounting has been applied to (i) the Parent Company’s interests in the Guarantor Subsidiary and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and (ii) the Guarantor

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

Subsidiary’s interests in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under GAAP. All intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiary and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been eliminated, as shown in the column “Eliminations.” All assets and liabilities have been allocated to the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiary and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries generally based on legal entity ownership. Certain administrative costs have been allocated to the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiary and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries based on revenue recorded at the respective entity. The Parent Company allocates 100% of its third-party interest expense, net of interest income received from intercompany loans, to the Guarantor Subsidiary. The income tax provision has been presented based on each subsidiary’s legal entity activity including income tax benefits related to allocated administrative costs and interest expense. Deferred income taxes have been presented based upon the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the respective assets and liabilities of the applicable entities.
