AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) today announced fiscal 2025 Q2 results. Total quarterly revenues were up 9% year-over-year, in both USD and constant currency, to $14.1 billion. Cloud services and license support revenues were up 12% year-over-year, in both USD and constant currency, to $10.8 billion. Cloud license and on-premise license revenues were up 1% in USD and up 3% in constant currency, to $1.2 billion.  

Q2 GAAP operating income was $4.2 billion. Non-GAAP operating income was $6.1 billion, up 10% in both USD and constant currency. GAAP operating margin was 30%, and non-GAAP operating margin was 43%. GAAP net income was $3.2 billion. Non-GAAP net income was $4.2 billion, up 12% in both USD and constant currency. Q2 GAAP earnings per share was $1.10, up 24% in USD and up 23% in constant currency, while non-GAAP earnings per share was $1.47, up 10% in both USD and constant currency.

Short-term deferred revenues were $9.4 billion. Over the last twelve months, operating cash flow was $20.3 billion and free cash flow was $9.5 billion.

“Record level AI demand drove Oracle Cloud Infrastructure revenue up 52% in Q2, a much higher growth rate than any of our hyperscale cloud infrastructure competitors,” said Oracle CEO, Safra Catz. “Growth in the AI segment of our Infrastructure business was extraordinary—GPU consumption was up 336% in the quarter—and we delivered the world’s largest and fastest AI SuperComputer scaling up to 65,000 NVIDIA H200 GPUs. With our remaining performance obligation (RPO) up 50% to $97 billion, we believe our already impressive growth rates will continue to climb even higher. This fiscal year, total Oracle Cloud revenue should top $25 billion.”

“Oracle Cloud Infrastructure trains several of the world’s most important generative AI models because we are faster and less expensive than other clouds,” said Oracle Chairman and CTO, Larry Ellison. “And we just signed an agreement with Meta—for them to use Oracle’s AI Cloud Infrastructure—and collaborate with Oracle on the development of AI Agents based on Meta’s Llama models. The Oracle Cloud trains dozens of specialized AI models and embeds hundreds of AI Agents in cloud applications. For example, Oracle’s AI Agents automate drug design, image and genomic analysis for cancer diagnostics, audio updates to electronic health records for patient care, satellite image analysis to predict and improve agricultural output, fraud and money laundering detection, dual-factor biometric computer logins, and real time video weapons detection in schools. Oracle trained AI models and AI Agents will improve the rate of scientific discovery, economic development and corporate growth throughout the world. The scale of the opportunity is unimaginable.”

The board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per share of outstanding common stock. This dividend will be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 9, 2025, with a payment date of January 23, 2025.

A sample list of customers which purchased Oracle Cloud services during the quarter will be available at www.oracle.com/customers/earnings/.A list of recent technical innovations and announcements is available at www.oracle.com/news/.To learn what industry analysts have been saying about Oracle’s products and services see www.oracle.com/corporate/analyst-reports/.

Earnings Conference Call and Webcast

Oracle will hold a conference call and webcast today to discuss these results at 4:00 p.m. Central. A live and replay webcast will be available on the Oracle Investor Relations website at www.oracle.com/investor/.

We compare the percent change in the results from one period to another period using constant currency disclosure. We present constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the exchange rates in effect on May 31, 2024, which was the last day of our prior fiscal year, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods. Movements in international currencies relative to the United States dollar during the three months ended November 30, 2024 compared with the corresponding prior year period increased our operating income by 1 percentage point.

Income tax effects were calculated reflecting an effective GAAP tax rate of 7.1% and 8.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, and an effective non-GAAP tax rate of 20.1% and 18.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively. The difference in our GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates in each of the second quarters of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to the net tax effects related to stock-based compensation expense; acquisition related and other items, including the tax effects on amortization of intangible assets; and restructuring expense, partially offset by the net deferred tax effects related to an income tax benefit that was previously recorded due to the partial realignment of our legal entity structure.

Income tax effects were calculated reflecting an effective GAAP tax rate of 7.3% and 3.4% in the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, and an effective non-GAAP tax rate of 19.5% and 18.8% in the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively. The difference in our GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates in each of the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to the net tax effects related to stock-based compensation expense; acquisition related and other items, including the tax effects on amortization of intangible assets; and restructuring expense, partially offset by the net deferred tax effects related to an income tax benefit that was previously recorded due to the partial realignment of our legal entity structure.

APPENDIX A

ORACLE CORPORATION
Q2 FISCAL 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS
EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use the non-GAAP measures indicated in the tables, which exclude certain business combination accounting entries and expenses related to acquisitions, as well as other significant expenses including stock-based compensation, that we believe are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our future results. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items, as well as the related income tax effects:

Stock-based compensation expenses: We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expenses from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, and we believe such compensation contributed to the revenues earned during the periods presented and also believe it will contribute to the generation of future period revenues, we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation expenses. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods.Amortization of intangible assets: We have excluded the effect of amortization of intangible assets from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. Amortization of intangible assets is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.Acquisition related and other expenses; and restructuring expenses: We have excluded the effect of acquisition related and other expenses and the effect of restructuring expenses from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. We incurred expenses in connection with our acquisitions and also incurred certain other operating expenses or income, which we generally would not have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as a part of our continuing operations. Acquisition related and other expenses consisted of personnel related costs for transitional and certain other employees, certain business combination adjustments including certain adjustments after the measurement period has ended, and certain other operating items, net. Restructuring expenses consisted of employee severance and other exit costs. We believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on our total operating expenses. Although acquisition related and other expenses and restructuring expenses may diminish over time with respect to past acquisitions and/or strategic initiatives, we generally will incur certain of these expenses in connection with any future acquisitions and/or strategic initiatives.

Siris to Acquire Equiniti’s Retirement Solutions, Customer Resolutions and Lenvi Businesses

Published

on

By

Transaction to be Completed in Parallel with the Closing of Equiniti’s Previously Announced Sale to Bullish

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Siris (together with its affiliates, “Siris”), a leading private equity firm focused on control investments in mission-critical services businesses, today announced that it has elected to exercise its option to maintain ownership of EQ Retirement Solutions (“EQRS”), EQ Customer Resolutions (“EQCR”) and Lenvi from Equiniti (“EQ”). The three businesses provide essential services to UK pension schemes, financial institutions and corporate clients.

The transaction follows Siris’s previously announced agreement to sell EQ to Bullish (NYSE: BLSH), under which Siris retained the option to acquire these businesses. It is expected to be completed in parallel with the closing of EQ’s previously announced sale to Bullish in January 2027, subject to customary closing conditions and required regulatory approvals.

EQRS is a leading provider of outsourced pension administration services and proprietary administration software, including its Compendia platform, supporting more than 10 million members and £10 billion in annual payments for many of the UK’s largest public and private sector pension schemes. EQCR helps financial institutions and other regulated businesses manage customer and complaints resolution, combining specialist staffing and technical expertise with proprietary case management software. Lenvi provides loan servicing software, standby servicing and fraud detection software for banks and non-bank lenders, with more than £100 billion of credit assets managed on behalf of over 150 lenders through its FCA-regulated platform.

Siris has owned EQ since 2021 and has invested significantly in the three businesses during that period. Under renewed and dedicated Siris ownership, the businesses will further accelerate investment in technology, including AI-enabled administration capabilities, onboarding capacity and enhanced member experience, while maintaining continuity of service for clients.

“Maintaining ownership of EQRS, EQCR and Lenvi will establish these businesses as a dedicated platform within our portfolio, with a clear mandate to invest in their growth,” said Frank Baker, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, and Grant Weisberg, Principal, at Siris. “We have seen firsthand the strength of these assets, the quality of their teams and the opportunities ahead for them. As a standalone platform with dedicated focus and resources behind them, these businesses will be well positioned to accelerate their momentum and create long-term value for all stakeholders in this next chapter.”

About Siris

Siris is a leading private equity firm focused on control investments in mission-critical services businesses. Based in West Palm Beach, Florida, Siris has deployed more than $9 billion of equity capital since inception. www.siris.com.

The PMA Rallies the International Community to Act Before the Breaking Point: The Severance of Correspondent Banking Relationships Threatens the Economy and Life

Published

on

By

RAMALLAH, Palestine, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The PMA Governor, Mr. Yahya Shunnar, warned during a high-level meeting convened by the Palestinian Monetary Authority, with the participation of several ambassadors and representatives of international financial institutions, of the grave consequences of the severance of correspondent banking relationships (CBR). He stressed that the continuation of the Israeli measures is driving the Palestinian economy toward collapse, threatening food security and the provision of essential services.

The PMA convened the session under the title “The Breaking Point: Sounding the Alarm Before the Collapse.” Featuring remarks by the Governor of the Central Bank of Jordan, Dr. Adel Al Sharkas; the Director General and Chairman of the Arab Monetary Fund, Dr. Fahad Al Turki, via videoconference; the IMF’s Resident Representative, Mr. Tobias Roy; the Senior Adviser UNSCO, Mr. Hansjoerg Strohmeyer; and the Chairman of the Association of Banks in Palestine, H.E. Mr. Maher Al-Masri.

Governor Shunnar urged the international community to act immediately to preserve CBRs — Palestine’s only gateway to goods and services worldwide under the Paris Economic Protocol — and to secure reliable, sustainable arrangements ensuring the uninterrupted flow of trade with Israel and the wider world.

Any disruption or termination of these relationships, he warned, would reach far beyond the financial sector and could rapidly escalate into an economic and humanitarian crisis. Broken supply chains could trigger shortages of fuel, energy, and essential food commodities, alongside rising prices, unemployment, and poverty — all amid a worsening fiscal crisis driven by Israel’s continued withholding of clearance revenues, which further limits the Palestinian government’s ability to meet its obligations and deliver essential services.

Shunnar noted that 90% of Palestinian exports go to Israel, while 100% of imports originate from or pass through it, some 60% directly. Israeli correspondent banks processed roughly NIS 51 billion in transactions during 2025, underscoring how critical these channels are to sustaining economic activity.

He added that nearly NIS 18 billion (about USD 6 billion) sits idle in bank vaults, sharply constraining the banking sector.

Participants acknowledged that the window for effective action is narrowing rapidly, and that averting this scenario requires urgent, coordinated intervention to secure stable, sustainable arrangements that keep the Palestinian banking sector connected to the global financial system.

In thousands, except per customer and penetration data. See footnotes to unaudited summary of operating statistics on page 7 of the addendum of this news release. The footnotes contain important disclosures regarding the definitions used for these operating statistics.  All percentages are calculated using whole numbers. Minor differences may exist due to rounding. 

Second quarter total Internet customers decreased by 172,000, compared to a decline of 116,000 during the second quarter of 2025. Spectrum Internet delivers the most reliable Internet1, and the Company is evolving its connectivity network to offer symmetrical and multi-gigabit Internet speeds across its entire footprint and has launched symmetrical Internet service in several markets. Spectrum expects to complete its network evolution initiative in 2027. In February 2026, Spectrum launched its Invincible WiFiTM product, a tri-band advanced WiFi 7 router that integrates 5G cellular and battery backup to keep customers seamlessly and fully connected during a power outage or network disruption. In the first quarter, Spectrum launched its $1,000 savings guarantee; new or existing Spectrum Internet customers switching two or more mobile lines from Verizon, AT&T or T-Mobile are now guaranteed $1,000 of savings in their first year, or Spectrum will cover the difference.

During the second quarter of 2026, Charter added 406,000 total mobile lines, compared to growth of 491,000 during the second quarter of 2025. Spectrum Mobile has faster wireless speeds than the competition (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon).2 Spectrum Mobile is central to Charter’s converged network strategy to provide customers a differentiated connectivity experience with highly competitive, simple data plans and pricing.

Total video customers decreased by 21,000 in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a decline of 80,000 in the second quarter of 2025, with the improvement driven by simplified pricing and packaging and benefits from the inclusion of programmers’ streaming applications in Spectrum’s expanded basic video packages. As of June 30, 2026, Charter had 12.5 million total video customers.

Spectrum TV Select video customers now receive up to approximately $127 per month of programmers’ streaming application retail value at no extra cost, including the ad-supported versions of Disney+, Hulu, ESPN Unlimited, HBO Max, Paramount+, Peacock, AMC+, ViX, Tennis Channel, Fox One and Discovery+. Beginning in June 2026, Spectrum customers can purchase ad-supported and ad-free versions of Netflix through the Spectrum App Store. The Spectrum App Store is an innovative digital marketplace where Spectrum TV customers can activate, manage and upgrade the streaming apps included with their video plans. The Spectrum App Store also allows Spectrum customers without a traditional TV package to purchase and manage streaming apps à la carte.

During the second quarter of 2026, total wireline voice customers declined by 178,000, compared to a decline of 220,000 in the second quarter of 2025. As of June 30, 2026, Charter had 5.7 million total wireline voice customers.

Charter continues to work with federal, state and local governments to bring Spectrum Internet to unserved and underserved communities. During the second quarter of 2026, Charter activated 127,000 subsidized rural passings. Within Charter’s subsidized rural footprint, total customer relationships increased by 47,000 in the second quarter of 2026.

Revenues

Second quarter revenue decreased by 1.7% year-over-year to $13.5 billion, driven by lower residential video revenue mostly due to higher costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue and lower residential Internet revenue, partly offset by an increase in residential mobile service revenue, higher mobile device revenue and higher advertising sales revenue. Excluding advertising sales revenue and costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue, second quarter total revenue declined by 0.8% year-over-year.

Residential revenue totaled $10.4 billion in the second quarter, a decrease of 3.5% year-over-year, driven by a year-over-year decline in residential customers of 1.8% and a decrease in monthly residential revenue per residential customer of 1.8%. Excluding costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue, residential revenue declined by 1.8%.

Second quarter 2026 monthly residential revenue per residential customer totaled $117.52, a decrease of 1.8% compared to the prior year period. The decline was driven by $251 million of costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue versus $67 million in the prior year period, pricing and packaging mix within Charter’s customer base and a decline in video customers during the last year, partly offset by the growth of Spectrum Mobile. Excluding costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue, monthly residential revenue per residential customer decreased 0.1% compared to the prior year period.

Internet revenue declined 3.2% year-over-year to $5.8 billion, driven by a decline in Internet customers year-over year and pricing and packaging mix within Charter’s customer base, partly offset by more favorable bundled revenue allocation year-over-year.

Second quarter mobile service revenue totaled $1.1 billion, an increase of 18.9% year-over-year, driven by mobile line growth and rate adjustments.

Video revenue totaled $3.1 billion in the second quarter, a decrease of 9.7% compared to the prior year period, driven by a higher mix of lower priced video packages within Charter’s video customer base, $251 million of costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue versus $67 million in the prior year period, more unfavorable bundled revenue allocation year-over-year and a decline in video customers during the last year, partly offset by promotional rate step-ups and video rate adjustments that pass through programmer rate increases.

Voice revenue decreased by 4.5% year-over-year to $331 million, driven by a decline in wireline voice customers, partly offset by voice rate adjustments.

Commercial revenue increased by 1.5% year-over-year to $1.9 billion, driven by mid-market and large business revenue growth of 2.8% year-over-year and an increase in small business revenue of 0.7%. Mid-market and large business revenue excluding wholesale increased by 3.5% year-over-year, mostly reflecting PSU growth. The year-over-year increase in second quarter 2026 small business revenue was driven by a 1.4% increase year-over-year in monthly small business revenue per small business customer, partly offset by a decline of 0.8% in small business customer relationships year-over-year.

Second quarter advertising sales revenue of $416 million increased by 12.3% compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by higher political revenue. Excluding political revenue in both periods, advertising sales revenue decreased by 4.6% year-over-year driven by lower linear advertising revenue, partly offset by higher streaming advertising revenue.

Other revenue totaled $894 million in the second quarter, an increase of 7.1% compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by higher mobile device sales, partly offset by a $45 million one-time benefit in the prior year period.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Second quarter total operating costs and expenses were flat year-over-year at $8.1 billion, primarily driven by lower programming costs, offset by higher other costs of revenue and higher transition expenses.

Second quarter programming costs decreased by $218 million, or 9.7% as compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting $251 million of costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue versus $67 million in the prior year period, a higher mix of lower cost packages within Charter’s video customer base and fewer video customers, partly offset by contractual programming rate increases and renewals.

Other costs of revenue increased by $186 million, or 11.3% year-over-year, primarily driven by higher mobile device sales, higher mobile service direct costs and higher advertising sales costs given higher political revenue.

Field and technology operations expenses increased by $21 million, or 1.6% year-over-year, primarily driven by higher vehicle fuel costs and medical expenses.

Customer operations expenses increased by $8 million, or 1.1% year-over-year, driven by medical expenses.

Marketing and residential sales expenses decreased by $31 million or 3.1% year-over-year, due to lower marketing expenses from cost savings, despite higher marketing activity.

Transition expenses represent incremental costs incurred to prepare for the integration of the previously announced Cox transaction.

Other expenses decreased by $27 million, or 2.5% as compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by lower professional services expense.

Net Income Attributable to Charter Shareholders

Net income attributable to Charter shareholders totaled $1.3 billion in the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, with lower Adjusted EBITDA offset by a gain on extinguishment of debt related to open market debt repurchases in the second quarter of 2026.

Net income per basic common share attributable to Charter shareholders totaled $10.76 in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $9.41 during the same period last year. The increase was primarily the result of a 13.1% decrease in basic weighted average common shares outstanding versus the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA

Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 billion declined by 4.3% year-over-year, reflecting a decline in revenue of 1.7%, while operating costs and expenses remained flat. Excluding transition expenses, Adjusted EBITDA declined 3.2% year-over-year.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures totaled $2.9 billion in the second quarter of 2026, in-line with the prior year period, with lower line extension spend offset by higher upgrade/rebuild (primarily network evolution).

Charter continues to expect full year 2026 capital expenditures, excluding impacts from the previously announced Cox transaction, to total approximately $11.4 billion. The actual amount of capital expenditures in 2026 will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the pace of Charter’s network evolution and expansion initiatives, supply chain timing and growth rates in Charter’s residential and commercial businesses.

Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow

During the second quarter of 2026, net cash flows from operating activities totaled $3.9 billion, an increase from $3.6 billion in the prior year. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to lower cash taxes, partly offset by lower Adjusted EBITDA.

Free cash flow in the second quarter of 2026 totaled $969 million, a decrease of $77 million compared to the second quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease in free cash flow was driven by an unfavorable change in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures, partly offset by higher net cash flows from operating activities.

Liquidity & Financing

As of June 30, 2026, total principal amount of debt was $93.8 billion and Charter’s credit facilities provided approximately $3.7 billion of additional liquidity in excess of Charter’s $509 million cash position.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, Charter purchased $1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of various Charter Communications Operating, LLC and CCO Holdings, LLC notes under an open market repurchase program for $1.0 billion in cash.

Share Repurchases

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, Charter purchased 4.0 million shares of Charter Class A common stock for $838 million.

Webcast

Charter will host a webcast on Friday, July 24, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time (ET) related to the contents of this release.

The webcast can be accessed live via the Company’s investor relations website at ir.charter.com. Participants should go to the webcast link no later than 10 minutes prior to the start time to register. The webcast will be archived at ir.charter.com two hours after completion of the webcast.

Additional Information Available on Website

The information in this press release should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, which will be posted on the “Results & SEC Filings” section of the Company’s investor relations website at ir.charter.com, when it is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). A slide presentation to accompany the conference call and a trending schedule containing historical customer and financial data will also be available in the “Results & SEC Filings” section.

Use of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow Information

The Company uses certain measures that are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to evaluate various aspects of its business. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income attributable to Charter shareholders and net cash flows from operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP. These terms, as defined by Charter, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are reconciled to net income attributable to Charter shareholders and net cash flows from operating activities, respectively, in the Addendum to this release.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Charter shareholders plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, other income (expenses), net and other operating (income) expenses, net, such as special charges, merger and acquisition costs and (gain) loss on sale or retirement of assets. As such, it eliminates the significant non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of the Company’s businesses as well as other non-cash or special items, and is unaffected by the Company’s capital structure or investment activities. However, 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 cash cost of financing. These costs are evaluated through other financial measures.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows from operating activities, less capital expenditures and changes in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures.

Management and Charter’s board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to assess Charter’s performance and its ability to service its debt, fund operations and make additional investments with internally generated funds. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA generally correlates to the leverage ratio calculation under the Company’s credit facilities or outstanding notes to determine compliance with the covenants contained in the facilities and notes (all such documents have been previously filed with the SEC). For the purpose of calculating compliance with leverage covenants, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, excluding certain expenses paid by its operating subsidiaries to other Charter entities. The Company’s debt covenants refer to these expenses as management fees, which were $336 million and $702 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $366 million and $732 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

(a)

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Charter shareholders plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, other (income) expenses, net and other operating (income) expenses, net such as special charges, merger and acquisition costs and (gain) loss on sale or retirement of assets. As such, it eliminates the significant non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of our businesses as well as other non-cash or special items, and is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities.  Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows from operating activities, less capital expenditures and changes in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures.

(b)

Transition represents incremental costs incurred to prepare for the integration of Cox Communications’ operations and to bring systems and processes into a uniform operating structure.

(c)

Other expense excludes stock compensation expense.  Total operating costs and expenses excludes stock compensation expense, depreciation and amortization and other operating (income) expenses, net.

(d)

We calculate the aging of customer accounts based on the monthly billing cycle for each account in accordance with our collection policies.  On that basis, at June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, customers included approximately 84,000, 87,600, 82,300 and 99,400 customers, respectively, whose accounts were over 60 days past due, approximately 10,100, 7,800, 9,700 and 11,600 customers, respectively, whose accounts were over 90 days past due and approximately 13,400, 13,600, 13,600 and 18,900 customers, respectively, whose accounts were over 120 days past due.     

(e)

Passings represent our estimate of the number of units, such as single family homes, apartment and condominium units and small business and mid-market & large business sites passed by our cable distribution network in the areas where we offer the service indicated.  These estimates are based upon the information available at this time and are updated for all periods presented when new information becomes available. 

(f)

Customer relationships include the number of customers that receive one or more levels of service, encompassing Internet, mobile, video and voice services, without regard to which service(s) such customers receive.  Customers who reside in residential multiple dwelling units (“MDUs”) and that are billed under bulk contracts are counted based on the number of billed units within each bulk MDU.  Total customer relationships exclude mid-market & large business customer relationships.

(g)

Penetration represents residential and small business customers as a percentage of estimated passings. 

(h)

Monthly residential revenue per residential customer is calculated as total residential quarterly revenue divided by three divided by average residential customer relationships during the respective quarter.

(i)

Monthly small business revenue per small business customer is calculated as total small business quarterly revenue divided by three divided by average small business customer relationships during the respective quarter.

(j)

One product, two product and three or more product penetration represents the number of residential customers that subscribe to one product, two products or three or more products, respectively, as a percentage of residential customer relationships.

(k)

Connectivity customers represent all customers receiving our Internet and/or mobile connectivity services.

(l)

Mobile lines include phones and tablets which require one of our standard rate plans (e.g., “Unlimited” or “By the Gig”).  Mobile lines exclude wearables and other devices that do not require standard phone rate plans.

(m)

Video customers only include customers that purchase Spectrum traditional or streaming linear video packages and exclude customers that only purchase streaming applications.

(n)

Mid-market & large business PSUs represents the aggregate number of fiber service offerings counting each separate service offering at each customer location as an individual PSU.

(o)

Customer premise equipment includes equipment and devices located at the customer’s premise used to deliver our Internet, video and voice services (e.g., modems, routers and set-top boxes), as well as installation costs.

(p)

Scalable infrastructure includes costs, not related to customer premise equipment or our network, to secure growth of new customers or provide service enhancements (e.g., headend equipment).

(q)

Upgrade/rebuild includes costs to modify or replace existing fiber/coaxial cable networks, including our network evolution initiative.

(r)

Support capital includes costs associated with the replacement or enhancement of non-network assets (e.g., back-office systems, non-network equipment, land and buildings, vehicles, tools and test equipment).

(s)

Line extensions include network costs associated with entering new service areas (e.g., fiber/coaxial cable, amplifiers, electronic equipment, make-ready and design engineering).

(t)

The subsidized rural construction initiative subcategory includes projects for which we are receiving subsidies from federal, state and local governments, excluding customer premise equipment and installation.
