Charter Communications shares tumble after earnings miss

-- Charter Communications (NASDAQ:CHTR), Inc. reported second-quarter earnings that fell short of analyst expectations, sending shares down 6.8% as investors reacted to the earnings miss and continued customer losses. The cable and internet provider posted adjusted earnings per share of $9.18, missing the analyst consensus of $9.58, while revenue came in at $13.77 billion, matching analyst estimates and representing a modest 0.6% increase year-over-year. The revenue growth was primarily driven by residential mobile service revenue, which surged 24.9%, and residential Internet revenue, which grew 2.8%. Charter continued to face challenges with customer retention, losing 117,000 Internet customers during the quarter, though this marked an improvement from the 149,000 decline in the same period last year. The company's total customer relationships decreased by 162,000 to 31.2 million. "Our converged connectivity revenue grew by over 5% in the second quarter, with a long runway for growth," said Chris Winfrey, President and CEO of Charter. "Our seamless connectivity products offer the fastest speeds at the best price." The company's mobile business remained a bright spot, with 500,000 new mobile lines added during the quarter, bringing the total to 10.9 million lines, a 23.7% increase YoY. Video customer losses also showed improvement, with a decline of 80,000 compared to 408,000 in the year-ago quarter. Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA grew 0.5% YoY to $5.7 billion, while free cash flow decreased 19.3% to $1.0 billion, primarily due to unfavorable changes in mobile device working capital and the timing of cash taxes and interest payments. Charter also lowered its full-year 2025 capital expenditure forecast to approximately $11.5 billion from $12.0 billion, citing timing of network evolution spending and lower commercial and rural line extension expenditures.

cuts to Medicare payments, or create additional spending reductions, (5) the ability to achieve operating and financial targets, develop and execute resiliency plans to offset to the extent possible impacts from OBBBA, the scheduled expiration of EPTCs and tariffs, attain expected levels of patient volumes and revenues, and control the costs of providing services, (6) possible reductions or other

These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude losses (gains) on sales of facilities and losses on retirement of debt. We believe net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and Adjusted EBITDA are important measures that supplement discussions and analysis of our results of operations. We believe it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of our results of operations on the same basis used by management. Management relies upon net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measures to review and assess operating performance of its health care facilities and their management teams. Management and investors review both the overall performance (including net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and GAAP net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc.) and operating performance (Adjusted EBITDA) of our health care facilities. Adjusted EBITDA and the Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues) are utilized by management and investors to compare our current operating results with the corresponding periods during the previous year and to compare our operating results with other companies in the health care industry. It is reasonable to expect that adjustments, including losses (gains) on sales of facilities and losses on retirement of debt will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our health care facilities and complicate period comparisons of our results of operations and operations comparisons with other health care companies. Net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc. as a measure of operating performance or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity. Because net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc., as adjusted, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, and Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. HCA Healthcare, Non-GAAP Disclosures2025 Operating Results Forecast(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts) For the Year Ending December 31, 2025 Low High Revenues $ 74,000 $ 76,000 Net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc.

(b) Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure that supplements discussions and analysis of our results of operations. We believe it is useful to investors to provide disclosures of our results of operations on the same basis used by management. Management relies upon Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess operating performance of its health care facilities and their management teams. Management and investors review both the overall performance (including net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc.) and operating performance (Adjusted EBITDA) of our healthcare facilities. Adjusted EBITDA is utilized by management and investors to compare our current operating results with the corresponding periods during the previous year and to compare our operating results with other companies in the health care industry. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to HCA Healthcare, Inc. as a measure of operating performance or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
