"We believe our strategic initiatives intended to drive penetration deeper across all market segments are setting the stage for sustainable long-term growth," said Julie Laulis, Cable One President and CEO. "Despite challenges such as the discontinuation of the Affordable Connectivity Program ("ACP") and typical seasonal headwinds, the underlying fundamentals of both residential and business data additions and retention levels maintained positive momentum during the second quarter, with both connects and disconnects improving year-over-year for the second consecutive quarter."

Second Quarter 2024 Summary:

  • Residential data primary service units ("PSUs") decreased by approximately 4,200 sequentially, of which approximately 4,000 related to the expiration of the ACP during the second quarter. Business data PSUs increased by 500 sequentially.
  • Net income was $47.6 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $55.2 million in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA was $212.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $231.3 million in the second quarter of 2023. Net profit margin was 12.1% and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 53.8%.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $155.5 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $169.6 million in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures was $140.8 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $149.8 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Total revenues were $394.5 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $424.0 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • The Company paid $17.1 million in dividends during the second quarter of 2024.
  • The Company repaid $50.0 million under its revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") during the second quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are defined in the section of this press release entitled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are reconciled to net income, Adjusted EBITDA margin is reconciled to net profit margin and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures is also reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities. Refer to the “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” tables within this press release.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results Compared to Second Quarter 2023

Revenues were $394.5 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $424.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. Residential data revenues decreased $16.4 million, or 6.7%, year-over-year due primarily to a 6.9% decrease in average revenue per unit. Residential video revenues decreased $9.0 million, or 13.5%, year-over-year due primarily to a decrease in residential video subscribers, partially offset by a rate adjustment enacted earlier in the year. Business data revenues increased $0.9 million, or 1.6%, year-over-year, due primarily to an increase in business data subscribers.

Net income was $47.6 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $55.2 million in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year decrease was due primarily to lower revenues, partially offset by an $8.5 million reduction in programming costs resulting from video customer losses, a $5.5 million severance charge resulting from organizational changes implemented during the quarter and a $7.7 million gain related to C-band spectrum relocation funding received from the federal government. Net profit margin was 12.1% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 13.0% in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA was $212.4 million and $231.3 million for the second quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 53.8% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 54.5% in the prior year quarter.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $155.5 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $169.6 million in the second quarter of 2023. Capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $71.6 million compared to $81.5 million for the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2024 was $140.8 million compared to $149.8 million in the prior year quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2024, the Company had $201.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand compared to $190.3 million at December 31, 2023. The Company’s debt balance was $3.57 billion and $3.68 billion at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had $238.0 million of borrowings and $762.0 million available for borrowing under the Revolver as of June 30, 2024.

The Company paid $17.1 million in dividends to stockholders during the second quarter of 2024.

The Company repaid $50.0 million under the Revolver during the second quarter of 2024 and repaid an additional $50.0 million in July 2024.

Additional Information Available on Website

The information in this press release should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024, which will be posted on the “SEC Filings” section of the Cable One Investor Relations website at ir.cableone.net when it is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors and others interested in more information about Cable One should consult the Company’s website, which is regularly updated with financial and other important information about the Company.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain measures that are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) to evaluate various aspects of its business. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, not as superior to, or as a substitute for, net income, net profit margin, net cash provided by operating activities or capital expenditures as a percentage of net income reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are reconciled to net income, Adjusted EBITDA margin is reconciled to net profit margin and capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to capital expenditures as a percentage of net income. Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures is also reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities. These reconciliations are included in the “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” tables within this press release.

“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income plus net interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, severance and contract termination costs, acquisition-related costs, net (gain) loss on asset sales and disposals, system conversion costs, rebranding costs, net equity method investment (income) loss, net other (income) expense and any special items, as provided in the “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” tables within this press release. As such, it eliminates the significant non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of the Company’s business as well as other non-cash or special items and is unaffected by the Company’s capital structure or investment activities. This measure is limited in that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues and the Company’s cash cost of debt financing. These costs are evaluated through other financial measures.

“Adjusted EBITDA margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.

“Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures,” when used as a liquidity measure, is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities excluding the impact of capital expenditures, net interest expense, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, income tax provision, changes in operating assets and liabilities, change in deferred income taxes and certain other items, as provided in the “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” tables within this press release.

“Capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as capital expenditures divided by Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA to assess its performance, and it also uses Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures as an indicator of its ability to fund operations and make additional investments with internally generated funds. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA generally correlates to the measure used in the leverage ratio calculations under the Company’s credit agreement and the indenture governing the Company’s non-convertible senior unsecured notes to determine compliance with the covenants contained in the credit agreement and the ability to take certain actions under the indenture governing the non-convertible senior unsecured notes. Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures is also a significant performance measure that has been used by the Company in its incentive compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account cash used for mandatory debt service requirements or other non-discretionary expenditures, and thus does not represent residual funds available for discretionary uses.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures is useful to investors as it shows the Company’s performance while taking into account cash outflows for capital expenditures and is one of several indicators of the Company’s ability to service debt, make investments and/or return capital to its stockholders.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures with similar titles are common measures used by investors, analysts and peers to compare performance in the Company’s industry, although the Company’s measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
