Comcast Reports 2nd Quarter 2016 Results
Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCSA) today reported results for the
quarter ended June 30, 2016.
Brian L. Roberts, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Comcast
Corporation, said, "I am pleased to report excellent results as our
momentum continues across our businesses. Our Cable subscriber and
financial performance during the quarter was outstanding. We more than
tripled our customer relationship net additions, with our best second
quarter Internet customer results in eight years and our best second
quarter video customer results in over ten years, and we successfully
balanced this with strong operating cash flow growth. Despite an
expected difficult comparison to last year's record second quarter film
slate, NBCUniversal achieved solid results, driven by strength in our TV
businesses and Theme Parks, which benefitted from the successful opening
of The Wizarding World of Harry PotterTM in
Hollywood. I am excited about the opportunities ahead for our company as
we work together to bring people incredible technology, and memorable
experiences, and there is no better example than the Olympic Games. The
entire organization is gearing up to deliver the most comprehensive and
innovative Olympics coverage in history starting next week, which will
showcase the incredible breadth of NBCUniversal together with Comcast
Cable and the X1 platform."

Revenue for Cable Communications increased 6.0% to $12.4
billion in the second quarter of 2016, driven primarily by increases in
high-speed Internet, business services, and video revenue. High-speed
Internet revenue increased 8.6%, reflecting an increase in the number of
residential high-speed Internet customers, rate adjustments and an
increase in the number of customers receiving higher levels of service.
Business services revenue increased 17.0%, primarily due to an increase
in the number of small business customers, as well as continued growth
in our medium-sized business services. Video revenue increased 2.8%,
primarily reflecting rate adjustments, as well as an increase in the
number of customers subscribing to additional services, partially offset
by additional revenue in the prior year period associated with a boxing
event available on pay-per-view. Other revenue increased 13.7%,
primarily reflecting an increase in Xfinity Home revenue and higher
franchise and regulatory fees. Advertising revenue increased 3.5%,
reflecting an increase in political advertising revenue.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, Cable revenue increased 6.3% to
$24.6 billion compared to 2015, driven by growth in high-speed Internet,
business services, and video.
Customer Relationships increased by 115,000 to 28.1 million
in the second quarter of 2016, an 83,000 improvement compared to
the increase in the second quarter of 2015, primarily reflecting
increases in double and triple product relationships. At the end of the
second quarter, penetration of our double and triple product customers
increased to 70% compared to 69% in the second quarter of 2015. Video
customer net losses of 4,000 were the best result for a second quarter
in over 10 years, high-speed Internet customer net additions of 220,000
were the best result for a second quarter in 8 years, and Voice customer
net additions improved to 64,000.

Operating Cash Flow for Cable Communications increased
5.7% to $5.0 billion in the second quarter of 2016, reflecting higher
revenue, partially offset by a 6.2% increase in operating expenses. The
higher expenses were primarily due to a 7.4% increase in video
programming costs, reflecting the timing of contract renewals, as well
as higher retransmission consent fees and sports programming costs,
partially offset by fees associated with a boxing event available on
pay-per-view in the prior year period. Technical and product support
expenses increased 5.9% primarily related to the development, delivery
and support of our X1 platform, Cloud DVR technology and wireless
gateways, and the continued growth in business services and home
security and automation services. Advertising, marketing and promotion
costs increased 4.4%, primarily due to increases in spending associated
with attracting new residential and business services customers.
Customer service expenses increased 6.0%, primarily due to increased
support for improving the customer experience and increases in total
labor costs. This quarter's operating cash flow margin was 40.6%
compared to 40.7% in the second quarter of 2015.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, Cable operating cash flow
increased 5.3% to $9.9 billion compared to 2015, driven by higher
revenue, partially offset by a 7.0% increase in operating expenses
primarily related to an 8.4% increase in video programming costs, as
well as higher technical and product support expenses, higher
advertising, marketing and promotion costs, and higher customer service
expenses. Year-to-date operating cash flow margin was 40.3% compared to
40.7% in 2015.

licensing and other revenue. Distribution revenue increased 6.9%, driven

million in the second quarter of 2016, reflecting higher revenue and

partially offset by higher content licensing and other revenue.
Theatrical revenue declined 78.8% compared to last year's second quarter

Notes:
|
1
|
|
We define Operating Cash Flow as operating income (loss) before
depreciation and amortization, excluding impairment charges related
to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of
assets, if any. See Table 4 for reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures.
|
|
|
|
2
|
|
Earnings per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis.
|
|
|
|

|
|
We define Free Cash Flow as Net Cash Provided by Operating
Activities (as stated in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows)
reduced by capital expenditures, cash paid for intangible assets,
principal payments on capital leases and cash distributions to
noncontrolling interests; and adjusted for any payments and receipts
related to certain nonoperating items, net of estimated tax
benefits. The definition of Free Cash Flow excludes any impact from
Economic Stimulus packages. These amounts have been excluded from
Free Cash Flow to provide an appropriate comparison. See Table 4 for
reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.

|
|
Beginning in the first quarter of 2016, certain operations and
businesses including several strategic business initiatives that
were previously presented in Corporate, Other and Eliminations are
now presented in our Cable Communications segment to reflect a
change in our management reporting presentation. For segment
reporting purposes, we have adjusted all periods presented to
reflect this change.

(1) Pro Forma information is presented as if the acquisition of the
51% interest of Universal Studios Japan occurred January 1, 2014.
Pro forma data does not include adjustments for transaction-related
costs, costs related to integration activities, or cost savings or
synergies that have been or may be achieved by the combined
businesses. The pro forma amounts are based on historical results of
operations and are subject to change as valuations are finalized.
Pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of what our results
would have been had we operated Universal Studios Japan since
January 1, 2014, nor of our future results.
|
|
(2) As reported results for Theme Parks and total NBCUniversal for
2015 have been adjusted for the change in NBCUniversal's method of
accounting for a contractual obligation that involves an interest
held by a third party in the revenue of certain theme parks. As a
result of the change, the amounts that are payable based on current
period revenue are now presented in operating costs and expenses,
rather than other income (expense), net in our consolidated
statement of income. The change was effective beginning in the 4th
quarter of 2015 and for segment reporting purposes we also adjusted
prior periods to reflect management reporting presentation of such
amounts on a consistent basis.
