OVERVIEW
TWC is the second-largest cable operator in the U.S., with technologically advanced,
well-clustered systems located mainly in five geographic areas New York State (including New York
City), the Carolinas, Ohio, southern California (including Los Angeles) and Texas. As of June 30,
2008, TWC served approximately 14.7 million customers who subscribed to one or more of its video,
high-speed data and voice services, representing approximately 33.6 million revenue generating
units.
Time Warner Inc. (Time Warner) owns approximately 84% of the common stock of TWC
(representing a 90.6% voting interest), and also owns an indirect 12.43% non-voting common stock
interest in TW NY Cable Holding Inc. (TW NY), a subsidiary of TWC. The financial results of TWCs
operations are consolidated by Time Warner. On May 20, 2008, TWC and its subsidiaries, Time Warner
Entertainment Company, L.P. (TWE) and TW NY, entered into a Separation Agreement (the Separation
Agreement) with Time Warner and its subsidiaries, Warner Communications Inc. (WCI), Historic TW
Inc. (Historic TW) and American Television and Communications Corporation (ATC), the terms of
which will govern TWCs legal and structural separation from
Time Warner. Refer to Recent
Developments for further details.
TWC
principally offers three services video, high-speed data and
voice over its broadband
cable systems. TWC markets its services separately and in bundled packages of multiple services
and features. As of June 30, 2008, 51% of TWCs customers subscribed to two or more of its primary
services, including 19% of its customers who subscribed to all three primary services.
Historically, TWC has focused primarily on residential customers, while also selling video,
high-speed data and networking and transport services to commercial customers. Recently, TWC has
begun selling voice services to small- and medium-sized businesses as part of an increased emphasis
on its commercial business. In addition, TWC earns revenues by selling advertising time to
national, regional and local businesses.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Video is TWCs largest service in terms of revenues generated and, as of June 30, 2008, TWC
had approximately 13.3 million basic video subscribers. Although providing video services is a
competitive and highly penetrated business, TWC expects to continue to increase video revenues
through the offering of advanced digital video services, as well as through price increases and
digital video subscriber growth. As of June 30, 2008, TWC had approximately 8.5 million digital
video subscribers, which represented approximately 64% of its basic video subscribers. TWCs
digital video subscribers provide a broad base of potential customers for additional services.
Video programming costs represent a major component of TWCs expenses and are expected to continue
to increase, reflecting contractual rate increases, subscriber growth and the expansion of service
offerings. TWC expects that its video service margins as a percentage of video revenues will
continue to decline over the next few years as increases in programming costs outpace growth in
video revenues.
As of June 30, 2008, TWC had approximately 8.1 million residential high-speed data
subscribers. TWC expects continued strong growth in residential high-speed data subscribers and
revenues during 2008; however, the rate of growth of both subscribers and revenues is expected to
continue to slow over time as high-speed data services become increasingly well-penetrated. TWC
also offers commercial high-speed data services and had 287,000 commercial high-speed data
subscribers as of June 30, 2008.
Approximately 3.4 million residential subscribers received Digital Phone service, TWCs
IP-based telephony voice service, as of June 30, 2008. TWC expects strong increases in Digital
Phone subscribers and revenues for the foreseeable future. TWC also rolled out Business Class
Phone, a commercial Digital Phone service, to small- and medium-sized businesses during 2007 in the
majority of its systems and has nearly completed the roll-out in the remainder of its systems
during the first half of 2008. As of June 30, 2008, TWC had 16,000 commercial Digital Phone
subscribers.
Some of TWCs principal competitors, direct broadcast satellite operators and incumbent local
telephone companies in particular, either offer or are making significant capital investments that
will allow them to offer services that provide features and functions comparable to the video,
high-speed data and/or voice services offered by TWC. These services are also offered in bundles
similar to TWCs and, in certain cases, such offerings include wireless service. The availability
of these bundled service offerings has intensified competition, and TWC expects that competition
will continue to intensify in the future as these offerings become more prevalent. TWC plans to
continue to enhance its services with innovative offerings, which TWC believes will distinguish its
services from those of its competitors.
Recent Developments
Separation from Time Warner
On May 20, 2008, TWC and its subsidiaries, TWE and TW NY, entered into the Separation
Agreement with Time Warner and its subsidiaries, WCI, Historic TW and ATC. TWCs separation from
Time Warner will take place through a series of related transactions, the occurrence of each of
which is a condition to the next. First, Time Warner will complete certain internal restructuring
transactions. Next, following the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including those
described below, Historic TW will transfer its 12.43% non-voting common stock interest in TW NY to
TWC in exchange for 80 million newly issued shares of TWCs Class A common stock (the TW NY
Exchange). Following the TW NY Exchange, Time Warner will complete certain additional
restructuring steps that will make Time Warner the direct owner of all shares of TWCs Class A
common stock and Class B common stock previously held by its subsidiaries (all of Time Warners
restructuring transaction steps being referred to collectively as the TW Internal Restructuring).
Upon completion of the TW Internal Restructuring, TWCs board of directors or a committee thereof
will declare a special cash dividend to holders of TWCs outstanding Class A common stock and Class
B common stock, including Time Warner, in an amount equal to $10.27 per share (aggregating $10.855
billion) (the Special Dividend). The Special Dividend will be paid prior to the completion of
TWCs separation from Time Warner. Following the payment of the Special Dividend, TWC will file
with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amended and restated certificate of
incorporation, pursuant to which, among other things, each outstanding share of TWC Class A common
2
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
stock (including any shares of Class A common stock issued in the TW NY Exchange) and TWC Class B
common stock will automatically be converted into one share of common stock, par value $.01
per share (the TWC Common Stock) (the Recapitalization). Once the TW NY Exchange, the TW
Internal Restructuring, the payment of the Special Dividend and the Recapitalization have been
completed, TWCs separation from Time Warner (the Separation) will proceed in the form of either
a pro rata dividend of all shares of TWC Common Stock held by Time Warner to holders of Time
Warners common stock or through the consummation by Time Warner of an exchange offer of shares of
TWC Common Stock for shares of Time Warners common stock. If the Separation is effected as an
exchange offer, after consummation of the exchange offer, Time Warner will distribute to its
stockholders, as a pro rata dividend, any TWC Common Stock that it continues to hold. The
distribution by Time Warner of all shares of TWC Common Stock held by Time Warner to its
stockholders as (a) a pro rata dividend, (b) an exchange offer or (c) a combination thereof is
referred to as the Distribution. The Separation, the TW NY Exchange, the TW Internal
Restructuring, the Special Dividend, the Recapitalization and the Distribution collectively are
referred to as the Separation Transactions.
Time Warner has the sole discretion, after consultation with TWC, to determine whether the
Separation will be effected as a pro rata dividend or through an exchange offer with its
stockholders, which decision has not yet been made.
The Separation Agreement contains customary covenants, and consummation of the Separation
Transactions is subject to customary closing conditions, including customary regulatory reviews and
local franchise approvals, the receipt by Time Warner of a private letter ruling from the Internal
Revenue Service indicating that the Separation Transactions will generally qualify as tax-free for
Time Warner and Time Warners stockholders, the receipt of certain tax opinions and the entry into
the 2008 Bridge Facility and the Supplemental Facility (each as defined below under 2008 Bond
Offering and Additional Financing Commitments). Time Warner and TWC expect the Separation
Transactions to be consummated by the end of 2008 or in early 2009. See Item 1A, Risk Factors,
in Part II of this report for a discussion of risk factors relating to the Separation.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company incurred pretax costs related
to the Separation of $47 million and $49 million, respectively, including direct transaction costs
(e.g., legal and professional fees) of $10 million and $12 million, respectively (which have been
reflected in other income, net on the Companys consolidated statement of operations), and
financing costs of $37 million for both periods. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008,
after considering the interest income received on the proceeds from the 2008 Bond Offering (as
defined below), financing costs included $6 million in net interest expense on the $5.0 billion of
debt securities issued in such offering and $31 million of debt issuance costs related to the
portion of the upfront loan fees for the 2008 Bridge Facility that were expensed during the second
quarter of 2008 due to the reduction of commitments under such facility as a result of the 2008
Bond Offering. The Company expects to incur additional costs related to the Separation during the
remainder of 2008 associated with additional financing and direct transaction costs.
Interim Impairment Testing of Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
As discussed in more detail in the 2007 Form 10-K, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets, primarily the Companys cable franchise rights, are tested annually for impairment during
the fourth quarter, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events or substantive changes in
circumstances. As a result of entering into the Separation Agreement, the Company was required
under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets (FAS 142) to test goodwill and cable franchise rights as of May 20, 2008 (the
interim testing date).
The impairment test was performed on a basis consistent with the analysis performed as of
December 31, 2007. In performing goodwill impairment testing, the Company determines the fair value
of a reporting unit by using two valuation techniques: a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis and
a market-based approach. The Company determines the fair value of the cable franchise rights of a
reporting unit using a DCF valuation analysis. A DCF valuation requires the exercise of
significant judgments, including
3
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
judgments about appropriate discount rates based on the assessment
of risks inherent in the projected future cash flows and the amount and timing of expected future
cash flows, including expected cash flows beyond
the Companys current long-term business planning period. In assessing the reasonableness of
its determined fair values, the Company evaluates its results against other value indicators such
as comparable company public trading values, research analyst estimates and values observed in
private market transactions.
The Companys interim impairment analysis did not result in any impairment charges during the
second quarter of 2008. However, the fair values of the cable franchise rights in certain of the
Companys reporting units, particularly the Texas reporting unit, were at or only modestly in
excess of their carrying values. Accordingly, any future declines in the estimated fair values of
the cable franchise rights in one or more of such reporting units would likely result in noncash
cable franchise rights impairment charges.
To illustrate the magnitude of a potential impairment charge related to changes in estimated
fair value, had the fair values of each of the reporting units and their respective cable franchise
rights been lower by 10% as of the interim testing date, the Company would have recorded cable
franchise rights impairment charges of approximately $750 million, and had each of the fair values
been lower by 20%, the Company would have recorded cable franchise rights impairment charges of
approximately $3.7 billion. In neither of these cases would the Company have been required to
record goodwill impairment charges.
2008 Bond Offering and Additional Financing Commitments
On June 16, 2008, TWC filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the Shelf
Registration Statement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) that allows TWC to
offer and sell from time to time senior and subordinated debt securities and debt warrants. On
June 19, 2008, TWC issued $5.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes and
debentures under the Shelf Registration Statement (the 2008 Bond Offering), consisting of
$1.5 billion principal amount of 6.20% notes due 2013, $2.0 billion principal amount of 6.75% notes
due 2018 and $1.5 billion principal amount of 7.30% debentures due 2038. The Company expects to
use the net proceeds of $4.963 billion from this issuance to finance, in part, the Special
Dividend. If the Separation is not consummated and the Special Dividend is not paid, the Company
will use the net proceeds from the issuance of the debt securities for general corporate purposes,
including repayment of indebtedness.
In addition to the debt securities issued in the 2008 Bond Offering described above, on June
30, 2008, the Company entered into a credit agreement with certain financial institutions for a
senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $9.0 billion with an
initial maturity date that is 364 days after the borrowing date (the 2008 Bridge Facility) in
order to finance, in part, the Special Dividend. As a result of the 2008 Bond Offering, immediately
after the credit agreement was executed, the amount of the commitments of the lenders under the
2008 Bridge Facility was reduced to $4.040 billion. The Company may elect to extend the maturity
date of the loans outstanding under the 2008 Bridge Facility for an additional year. TWC may not
borrow any amounts under the 2008 Bridge Facility unless and until the Special Dividend is declared
in connection with the Separation.
In May 2008, Time Warner (as lender) committed to lend TWC (as borrower) up to an aggregate
principal amount of $3.5 billion under a two-year senior unsecured supplemental term loan facility
(the Supplemental Facility). TWC may borrow under the Supplemental Facility at the final maturity
of the 2008 Bridge Facility to repay amounts then outstanding under the 2008 Bridge Facility, if
any. As a result of the 2008 Bond Offering, Time Warners original commitment was reduced by $980
million to $2.520 billion.
TWCs obligations under the debt securities issued in the 2008 Bond Offering and the 2008
Bridge Facility are, and under the Supplemental Facility will be, guaranteed by TWE and TW NY.
See Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further details regarding
the 2008 Bond Offering, the 2008 Bridge Facility and the Supplemental Facility.

Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture
In May 2008, TWC, Intel Corporation, Google Inc., Comcast Corporation (together with its
subsidiaries, Comcast) and Bright House Networks LLC entered into agreements to collectively
invest $3.2 billion in a wireless communications joint venture (the Sprint/Clearwire Joint
Venture), which is expected to be formed by Sprint Nextel Corporation (Sprint) and Clearwire
Corporation (Clearwire). TWCs share of such investment is expected to be approximately $550
million, which it expects to fund with cash on hand, borrowings under the Cable Revolving Facility
(as defined below), its commercial paper program or a combination thereof. Once formed, the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture will be focused on deploying the first nationwide fourth generation
wireless network to provide mobile broadband services to wholesale and retail customers. In
connection with its investment in the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture, TWC has entered into a
wholesale agreement with Sprint that allows TWC to offer wireless services utilizing Sprints 2G/3G
network. Upon closing, TWC also expects to enter into a wholesale agreement with the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture that would allow TWC to offer wireless services utilizing the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Ventures broadband wireless network. The closing of these transactions,
which is expected to occur by the end of the first half of 2009, is subject to customary regulatory
review and approvals. There can be no assurance that the formation of the Sprint/Clearwire Joint
Venture will be completed, or, if completed, that the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would
successfully deploy a nationwide mobile broadband network. If completed, the Companys investment
in the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting
and the Company expects that the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would incur losses in its early
periods of operation.
Sale of Certain Cable Systems
In June 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a group of small cable systems,
serving approximately 80,000 basic video subscribers and approximately 120,000 revenue generating
units as of June 30, 2008, located in areas outside of the
Companys core geographic clusters. The sale price is
approximately $53 million, subject to certain adjustments. The
Company expects the sale of these cable systems will close during the fourth quarter of 2008,
subject to obtaining customary regulatory approvals. The Company does not expect that the sale of
these systems will have a material impact on the Companys future financial results; however, as a
result of a probable loss on the sale of these systems, the Company recorded a pretax impairment
loss of $45 million during the second quarter of 2008.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
Revenues
The Companys revenues consist of Subscription and Advertising revenues. Subscription revenues
consist of revenues from video, high-speed data and voice services.
Video revenues include subscriber fees for basic, expanded basic and digital services from
both residential and commercial subscribers. Video revenues from digital services, or digital video
revenues, include revenues from digital tiers, digital pay channels, pay-per-view, video-on-demand,
subscription-video-on-demand and digital video recorder services. Video revenues also include
related equipment rental charges, installation charges and franchise fees collected on behalf of
local franchising authorities. Several ancillary items are also included within video revenues,
such as commissions earned on the sale of merchandise by home shopping services and rental income
earned on the leasing of antenna attachments on the Companys transmission towers. In each period
presented, these ancillary items constitute less than 2% of video revenues.
High-speed data revenues include subscriber fees from both residential and commercial
subscribers, along with related equipment rental charges, home networking fees and installation
charges. High-speed data revenues also include fees received from certain distributors of TWCs
Road RunnerTM high-speed data service (including cable systems managed by the
Advance/Newhouse Partnership) and fees received from third-party internet service providers whose
on-line services are provided to some of TWCs customers.
5
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Voice revenues include subscriber fees from residential and commercial Digital Phone
subscribers, along with related installation charges. For the three and six months ended June 30,
2007, voice revenues also included subscriber fees from circuit-switched telephone subscribers
(74,000 subscribers as of June 30,
2007). During the first half of 2008, TWC completed the process of discontinuing the provision
of circuit-switched telephone service in accordance with regulatory requirements. As a result,
during 2008, Digital Phone has been the only voice service offered by TWC.
Advertising revenues include the fees charged to local, regional and national advertising
customers for advertising placed on the Companys video and high-speed data services. Nearly all
Advertising revenues are attributable to the Companys video service.
Costs and Expenses
Costs of revenues include: video programming costs (including fees paid to the programming
vendors net of certain amounts received from the vendors); high-speed data connectivity costs;
voice network costs; other service-related expenses, including non-administrative labor costs
directly associated with the delivery of services to subscribers; maintenance of the Companys
delivery systems; franchise fees; and other related costs. The Companys programming agreements are
generally multi-year agreements that provide for the Company to make payments to the programming
vendors at agreed upon rates based on the number of subscribers to which the Company provides the
programming service.
Selling, general and administrative expenses include amounts not directly associated with the
delivery of services to subscribers or the maintenance of the Companys delivery systems, such as
administrative labor costs, marketing expenses, billing system charges, non-plant repair and
maintenance costs, fees paid to Time Warner for reimbursement of certain administrative support
functions and other administrative overhead costs.
Use of Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization and Free Cash Flow
Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization (OIBDA) is a financial measure not
calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
The Company defines OIBDA as Operating Income before depreciation of tangible assets and
amortization of intangible assets. Management utilizes OIBDA, among other measures, in evaluating
the performance of the Companys business because OIBDA eliminates the uneven effect across its
business of considerable amounts of depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible
assets recognized in business combinations. Additionally, management utilizes OIBDA because it
believes this measure provides valuable insight into the underlying performance of the Companys
individual cable systems by removing the effects of items that are not within the control of local
personnel charged with managing these systems such as income tax provision, other income (expense),
net, minority interest expense, net, income from equity investments, net, and interest expense,
net. In this regard, OIBDA is a significant measure used in the Companys annual incentive
compensation programs. OIBDA also is a metric used by the Companys parent, Time Warner, to
evaluate the Companys performance and is an important measure in the Time Warner reportable
segment disclosures. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the
periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in
the Companys business. To compensate for this limitation, management evaluates the investments in
such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures, such as capital expenditure
budget variances, investment spending levels and return on capital analyses. Another limitation of
this measure is that it does not reflect the significant costs borne by the Company for income
taxes, debt servicing costs, the share of OIBDA related to the minority ownership, the results of
the Companys equity investments or other non-operational income or expense. Management compensates
for this limitation through other financial measures such as a review of net income and earnings
per share.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as cash
provided by operating activities (as defined under GAAP) plus excess tax benefits from the exercise
of stock options, less cash provided by (used by) discontinued operations, capital expenditures,
partnership
6
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
distributions and principal payments on capital leases. Management uses Free Cash Flow
to evaluate the Companys business. The Company believes this measure is an important indicator of
its liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt and make strategic investments, because it
reflects the Companys operating cash flow after considering the significant capital expenditures
required to operate its business. A
limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect payments made in connection
with investments and acquisitions, which reduce liquidity. To compensate for this limitation,
management evaluates such expenditures through other financial measures such as return on
investment analyses.
Both OIBDA and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for,
the Companys Operating Income, net income and various cash flow measures (e.g., cash provided by
operating activities), as well as other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in
accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
companies. A reconciliation of OIBDA to Operating Income is presented under Results of
Operations. A reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to cash provided by operating activities is
presented under Financial Condition and Liquidity.

Customer relationships represent the number of subscribers who receive at least one
level of service, encompassing video, high-speed data and voice services, without regard to
the number of services purchased. For example, a subscriber who purchases only high-speed data
service and no video service will count as one customer relationship, and a subscriber who
purchases both video and high-speed data services will also count as only one customer
relationship. |
Subscription revenues increased as a result of increases in video, high-speed data and voice
revenues. The increase in video revenues was primarily due to the continued growth of digital video
services and video price increases, partially offset by a decrease in pay-per-view event revenues.

High-speed data revenues increased primarily due to growth in high-speed data subscribers.
Strong growth rates for high-speed data revenues are expected to continue during the remainder of
2008.
The increase in voice revenues was due to growth in Digital Phone subscribers. Voice revenues
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 also included $11 million and $25 million,
respectively, of revenues associated with subscribers who received traditional, circuit-switched
telephone service. Strong growth rates for voice revenues are expected to continue during the
remainder of 2008.
Average monthly subscription revenue (which includes video, high-speed data and voice
revenues) per basic video subscriber (subscription ARPU) increased 8% to $101.76 for the three
months ended June 30, 2008 from $94.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, and increased 9%
to $100.73 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $92.55 for the six months ended June 30,
2007. These increases were primarily a result of the increased penetration of digital video,
high-speed data and Digital Phone and higher video prices, as discussed above.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, costs of revenues increased 8% and 7%,
respectively, primarily related to increases in video programming, employee, voice and other direct
operating costs. As a percentage of revenues, costs of revenues were 47% for both the three months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and 48% for both the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
The increase in video programming costs was primarily due to contractual rate increases and an
increase in the percentage of basic video subscribers who also subscribe to expanded tiers of video
services. Average programming costs per basic video subscriber increased 7% to $23.49 per month
for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $21.89 per month for the three months ended June 30,
2007. Average programming costs per basic video subscriber increased 7% to $23.43 per month for the
six months ended June 30, 2008 from $21.89 per month for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Employee costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 increased primarily due to
higher headcount resulting from the continued growth of digital video, high-speed data and Digital
Phone services, as well as salary increases.
High-speed data costs consist of the direct costs associated with the delivery of high-speed
data services, including network connectivity costs. High-speed data costs decreased for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2008 due to a decrease in per-subscriber connectivity costs,
partially offset by subscriber growth.
Voice costs consist of the direct costs associated with the delivery of voice services,
including network connectivity costs. Voice costs increased for the three and six months ended June
30, 2008 primarily due to growth in Digital Phone subscribers, partially offset by a decline in
per-subscriber connectivity costs.
Other direct operating costs increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008
primarily due to increases in certain other costs associated with the continued growth of digital
video, high-speed data and Digital Phone services.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, selling, general and administrative expenses
increased due to higher marketing costs resulting from intensified marketing efforts, as well as,
for the six months ended June 30, 2008, higher employee and other costs. Employee costs for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2008 were impacted by headcount and salary increases. For the
three months ended June 30, 2008, higher employee costs were offset by lower equity-based compensation expense,
reflecting mainly the timing of 2008 grants, which were made during the first quarter as compared
to 2007 grants, which were made in the second quarter. Other costs increased slightly for the six
months ended June 30, 2008 primarily due to higher administrative costs associated with the
increase in headcount discussed above.
Merger-related and restructuring costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, the
Company expensed non-capitalizable merger-related costs associated with the 2006 transactions with
Adelphia Communications Corporation and Comcast of $3 million and $7 million, respectively. In
addition, the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 included restructuring costs
of $3 million and $9 million, respectively.
Loss on cable systems held for sale. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the
Company recorded a pretax impairment loss of $45 million as a result of the anticipated sale of
certain non-core cable systems, which is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2008. See

OIBDA. OIBDA increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 principally as a
result of revenue growth (particularly in high margin high-speed data revenues), partially offset
by higher costs of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, as well as the loss
on cable systems held for sale, as discussed above.
Depreciation expense. The increase in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2008 was primarily associated with purchases of customer premise equipment, scalable
infrastructure and line extensions (each of which is primarily driven by customer demand) occurring
during or subsequent to the comparable period in 2007.
Amortization expense. Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased
primarily due to the absence of amortization expense associated with customer relationships
recorded in connection with the 2003 restructuring of TWE, which were fully amortized as of the end
of the first quarter of 2007.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Operating Income. Operating Income increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008
primarily due to the increase in OIBDA (which included the loss on cable systems held for sale),
partially offset by the increase in depreciation expense, as discussed above. Additionally, the
decrease in amortization expense contributed to the increase in Operating Income for the six months
ended June 30, 2008.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, decreased for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2008 due to a decrease in net debt (as defined below), as well as lower average interest
rates on the Companys variable rate borrowings. This decrease was partially offset by the impact
of the 2008 Bond Offering and, for the six months ended June 30, 2008, the April 2007 issuance of
fixed rate debt securities (the 2007 Bond Offering). The net proceeds of the 2008 Bond Offering
(pending the payment of the Special Dividend in connection with the Separation) and the 2007 Bond
Offering were used in part to repay variable rate debt with lower interest rates. Interest expense
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 also included $31 million of debt issuance costs
related to the portion of the upfront loan fees for the 2008 Bridge Facility that were expensed due
to the reduction of commitments under such facility as a result of the 2008 Bond Offering.
Other expense (income), net. Other expense, net for the three and six months ended June 30,
2008 included $10 million and $12 million, respectively, of direct transaction costs (e.g., legal
and professional fees) related to the Separation Transactions, as well as an $8 million impairment
charge on an equity-method investment. Additionally, other expense, net for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 included a pretax gain of $9 million recorded on the sale of a cost-method
investment. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded a pretax gain of $146
million as a result of the distribution of the assets of Texas and Kansas City Cable Partners, L.P.
to TWC and Comcast on January 1, 2007, which was treated as a sale of the Companys 50% equity
interest in the pool of assets consisting of the Houston cable systems (the TKCCP Gain).
Income before income taxes. Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30,
2008 increased primarily due to an increase in Operating Income (which included the loss on cable
systems held for sale), partially offset by an increase in other expense, net. Income before
income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased primarily due to the TKCCP Gain
recorded in other income, net in the first quarter of 2007, as discussed above, partially offset by
an increase in Operating Income (which included the loss on cable systems held for sale) and a
decrease in interest expense, net.
Income tax provision. TWCs income tax provision has been prepared as if the Company operated
as a stand-alone taxpayer for all periods presented. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $182 million and $172 million, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $347
million and $359 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was 40% for both the three and six
months ended June 30, 2008, and was 39% and 40% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007,
respectively.
Net income and net income per common share. Net income was $277 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 compared to $272 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Basic and
diluted net income per common share were $0.28 for both the three months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007. Net income was $519 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $548 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Basic and diluted net income per common share were $0.53
for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $0.56 for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
For the three months ended June 30, 2008, net income and net income per common share were
essentially flat, as the increase in Operating Income (which included the loss on cable systems
held for sale) was offset by an increase in other expense, net and income tax provision. For the
six months ended June 30, 2008, net income and net income per common share decreased primarily due
to the TKCCP Gain recorded in other income, net in the first quarter of 2007, as discussed above,
partially offset by an increase in Operating Income (which included the loss on cable systems held
for sale) and decreases in interest expense, net and income tax provision.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
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 foreseeable future, including indebtedness maturing during
2008, the expected payment of $10.855 billion for the Special Dividend and the Companys expected
investment in the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture. TWCs sources of cash include cash provided by
operating activities, cash and equivalents on hand, borrowing capacity under its committed credit
facilities (including the 2008
Bridge Facility, under which TWC may not borrow any amounts unless and until the Special
Dividend is declared in connection with the Separation) and commercial paper program, as well as
access to the capital markets.
TWCs unused committed capacity was $13.641 billion as of June 30, 2008, reflecting $3.849
billion in cash and equivalents, $5.752 billion of available borrowing capacity under the Companys
$6.0 billion senior unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the Cable Revolving Facility)
and $4.040 billion of borrowing capacity under the 2008 Bridge Facility, under which TWC may not
borrow any amounts unless and until the Special Dividend is declared in connection with the
Separation. Borrowings under the Supplemental Facility are only available to the Company at the
final maturity of the 2008 Bridge Facility to repay amounts then outstanding under the 2008 Bridge
Facility, if any, and are not included in TWCs unused committed capacity.
Current Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2008, the Company had $16.463 billion of debt, $3.849 billion of cash and
equivalents (net debt of $12.614 billion, defined as total debt less cash and equivalents), $300
million of mandatorily redeemable non-voting Series A Preferred Equity Membership Units (the TW NY
Cable Preferred Membership Units) issued by a subsidiary of TWC, Time Warner NY Cable LLC (TW NY
Cable) and $25.270 billion of shareholders equity. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had
$13.577 billion of debt, $232 million of cash and equivalents (net debt of $13.345 billion), $300
million of TW NY Cable Preferred Membership Units and $24.706 billion of shareholders equity.

and Time Warner Inc. (now known as Historic TW Inc.). |
As discussed in OverviewRecent Developments, the Shelf Registration Statement on file with
the SEC allows TWC to offer and sell from time to time senior and subordinated debt securities and
debt warrants.
As discussed in OverviewRecent Developments, upon completion of the TW Internal
Restructuring, TWCs board of directors or a committee thereof will declare the Special Dividend to
holders of TWCs outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock, including Time Warner,
in an amount equal to $10.27 per share (aggregating $10.855 billion), which will be paid prior to
the completion of the Separation.
In addition, as discussed in OverviewRecent Developments, TWC is a participant in the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture, which is expected to close by the end of the first half of 2009.
TWCs share of such investment is expected to be approximately $550 million, which it expects to

Cash provided by operating activities increased from $2.204 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 to $2.535 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was primarily
related to an increase in OIBDA (primarily due to revenue growth, partially offset by increases in
costs of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, as previously discussed), a
change in working capital requirements and a decrease in net income tax payments, partially offset
by 2008 pension plan contributions and the absence in 2008 of cash flows from discontinued
operations. The change in working capital requirements was primarily due to the timing of payments
and collections of accounts receivable.
The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, enacted in the first quarter of 2008, provides for a bonus
first year depreciation deduction of 50% of qualified property. The benefits of this legislation
are applicable to certain of the Companys capital expenditures and are expected to continue to
reduce the Companys net income tax payments during the remainder of 2008.
The Company anticipates making discretionary cash contributions of at least $150 million to
its funded defined benefit pension plans in 2008, subject to market conditions and other
considerations, $100 million of which has been contributed as of June 30, 2008.

Cash used by investing activities increased from $1.524 billion for the six months ended June
30, 2007 to $1.723 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was principally
due to an increase in capital expenditures, driven by greater penetration of digital video,
high-speed data and Digital Phone services, as well as the absence in 2008 of distributions
received from an investee.

Amounts represent costs incurred in the purchase and installation of equipment that
resides at a customers home or business for the purpose of receiving/sending video,
high-speed data and/or voice signals. Such equipment typically includes digital (including
high-definition) set-top boxes, remote controls, high-speed data modems, telephone modems and
the costs of installing such new equipment. Customer premise equipment also includes materials
and labor incurred to install the drop cable that connects a customers dwelling or business
to the closest point of the main distribution network. |
(b) |
|
Amounts represent costs incurred in the purchase and installation of equipment that
controls signal reception, processing and transmission throughout TWCs distribution network,
as well as controls and communicates with the equipment residing at a customers home or
business. Also included in scalable infrastructure is certain equipment necessary for content
aggregation and distribution (video-on-demand equipment) and equipment necessary to provide
certain video, high-speed data and Digital Phone service features (voicemail, e-mail, etc.). |
(c) |
|
Amounts represent costs incurred to extend TWCs distribution network into a
geographic area previously not served. These costs typically include network design, the
purchase and installation of fiber optic and coaxial cable and certain electronic equipment. |
(d) |
|
Amounts primarily represent costs incurred to upgrade or replace certain existing
components or an entire geographic area of TWCs distribution network. These costs typically
include network design, the purchase and installation of fiber optic and coaxial cable and
certain electronic equipment. |
(e) |
|
Amounts represent all other capital purchases required to run day-to-day operations.
These costs typically include vehicles, land and buildings, computer hardware/software, office
equipment, furniture and fixtures, tools and test equipment. |
TWC incurs expenditures associated with the construction of its cable systems. Costs
associated with the construction of the cable transmission and distribution facilities and new
cable service installations are capitalized. TWC generally capitalizes expenditures for tangible
fixed assets having a useful life of greater than one year. Capitalized costs include direct
material, labor and overhead, as well as interest. Sales and marketing costs, as well as the costs
of repairing or maintaining existing fixed assets, are expensed as
incurred. With respect to certain customer premise equipment, which includes set-top boxes and
high-speed data and telephone cable modems, TWC capitalizes installation charges only upon the
initial deployment of these assets. All costs incurred in subsequent disconnects and reconnects are
expensed as incurred. Depreciation on these assets is provided, generally using the straight-line
method, over their estimated

Time Warner Approval Rights
Under a shareholder agreement entered into between TWC and Time Warner on April 20, 2005 (the
Shareholder Agreement), TWC is required to obtain Time Warners approval prior to incurring
additional debt (except for ordinary course issuances of commercial paper or borrowings under the
Cable Revolving Facility up to the limit of that credit facility, to which Time Warner has
consented) or rental expenses (other than with respect to certain approved leases) or issuing
preferred equity, if its consolidated ratio of debt, including preferred equity, plus six times its
annual rental expense to EBITDAR (the TW

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

Leverage Ratio) then exceeds, or would as a result of the incurrence or issuance exceed, 3:1.
Under certain circumstances, TWC is required to include the indebtedness, annual rental expense
obligations and EBITDAR of certain unconsolidated entities that it manages and/or in which it owns
an equity interest, in the calculation of the TW Leverage Ratio. The Shareholder Agreement defines
EBITDAR, at any time of measurement, as operating income plus depreciation, amortization and rental
expense (for any lease that is not accounted for as a capital lease) for the twelve months ending
on the last day of TWCs most recent fiscal quarter, including certain adjustments to reflect the
impact of significant transactions as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period. In the
Separation Agreement, Time Warner agreed that the calculation of indebtedness under the Shareholder
Agreement would exclude any indebtedness incurred pursuant to the 2008 Bridge Facility and any
indebtedness that reduces, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the commitments of the lenders under the
2008 Bridge Facility.
The following table sets forth the calculation of the TW Leverage Ratio, as amended by the
Separation Agreement, for the twelve months ended June 30, 2008 (in millions, except ratio):

CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, particularly statements anticipating future growth in
revenues, OIBDA, cash provided by operating activities and other financial measures. Words such as
anticipates, estimates, expects, projects, intends, plans, believes and words and
terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial
performance identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on
managements current expectations and beliefs about future events. As with any projection or
forecast, they are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances, and the
Company is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update or alter its
forward-looking statements whether as a result of such changes, new information, subsequent events
or otherwise.
Various factors could adversely affect the operations, business or financial results of TWC in
the future and cause TWCs actual results to differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed in detail in Item 1A, Risk Factors,
in the 2007 Form 10-K, which should be read in conjunction with this report (including Item 1A,
Risk Factors, in Part II of this report) and in TWCs other filings made from time to time with
the SEC after the date of this report. In addition, the Company operates in a highly competitive,
consumer and technology-driven and rapidly changing business. The Companys business is affected by
government regulation, economic, strategic, political and social conditions, consumer response to
new and existing products and services, technological developments and, particularly in view of new
technologies, its continued ability to protect and secure any necessary intellectual property
rights. TWCs actual results could differ materially from managements expectations because of
changes in such factors.
17
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Further, lower than expected valuations associated with the Companys cash flows and revenues
may result in the Companys inability to realize the value of recorded intangibles and goodwill.
Additionally, achieving the Companys financial objectives could be adversely affected by the
factors discussed in detail in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the 2007 Form 10-K and in Part II of
this report, as well as:
|
|
|
economic slowdowns; |
|
|
|
the impact of terrorist acts and hostilities; |
|
|
|
changes in the Companys plans, strategies and intentions; |
|
|
|
the impacts of significant acquisitions, dispositions and other similar transactions,
including the Companys planned separation from Time Warner; |
|
|
|
the failure to meet earnings expectations; and |
|
|
|
decreased liquidity in the capital markets, including any reduction in the ability to
access the capital markets for debt securities or bank financings. |

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 Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule
13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to
be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by the Company under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms
and that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the
Companys management to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting
during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
Time Warner Cable Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, TWC or the Company) is the
second-largest cable operator in the U.S., with technologically advanced, well-clustered systems
located mainly in five geographic areas New York State (including New York City), the Carolinas,
Ohio, southern California (including Los Angeles) and Texas. As of June 30, 2008, TWC served
approximately 14.7 million customers who subscribed to one or more of its video, high-speed data
and voice services, representing approximately 33.6 million revenue generating units.
Time Warner Inc. (Time Warner) owns approximately 84% of the common stock of TWC
(representing a 90.6% voting interest), and also owns an indirect 12.43% non-voting common stock
interest in TW NY Cable Holding Inc. (TW NY), a subsidiary of TWC. The financial results of
TWCs operations are consolidated by Time Warner. On May 20, 2008, TWC and its subsidiaries, Time
Warner Entertainment Company, L.P. (TWE) and TW NY, entered into a Separation Agreement (the
Separation Agreement) with Time Warner and its subsidiaries, Warner Communications Inc. (WCI),
Historic TW Inc. (Historic TW) and American Television and Communications Corporation (ATC),
the terms of which will govern TWCs legal and structural separation from Time Warner. Refer to
Note 3 for further details.
TWC principally offers three services video, high-speed data and voice over its broadband
cable systems. TWC markets its services separately and in bundled packages of multiple services
and features. As of June 30, 2008, 51% of TWCs customers subscribed to two or more of its primary
services, including 19% of its customers who subscribed to all three primary services.
Historically, TWC has focused primarily on residential customers, while also selling video,
high-speed data and networking and transport services to commercial customers. Recently, TWC has
begun selling voice services to small- and medium-sized businesses as part of an increased emphasis
on its commercial business. In addition, TWC earns revenues by selling advertising time to
national, regional and local businesses.
Video is TWCs largest service in terms of revenues generated and, as of June 30, 2008, TWC
had approximately 13.3 million basic video subscribers. Although providing video services is a
competitive and highly penetrated business, TWC continues to increase video revenues through the
offering of advanced digital video services, as well as through price increases and digital video
subscriber growth. As of June 30, 2008, TWC had approximately 8.5 million digital video
subscribers, which represented approximately 64% of its basic video subscribers. TWCs digital
video subscribers provide a broad base of potential customers for additional services.
As of June 30, 2008, TWC had approximately 8.1 million residential high-speed data
subscribers. TWC also offers commercial high-speed data services and had 287,000 commercial
high-speed data subscribers as of June 30, 2008.
Approximately 3.4 million residential subscribers received Digital Phone service, TWCs
IP-based telephony voice service, as of June 30, 2008. TWC also rolled out Business Class Phone, a
commercial Digital Phone service, to small- and medium-sized businesses during 2007 in the majority
of its systems and has nearly completed the roll-out in the remainder of its systems during the
first half of 2008. As of June 30, 2008, TWC had 16,000 commercial Digital Phone subscribers.

Basis of Presentation
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues,
expenses and cash flows of TWC and all entities in which TWC has a controlling voting interest, as
well as allocations of certain Time Warner corporate costs deemed reasonable by management to
present the Companys consolidated results of operations, financial position, changes in equity and
cash flows on a stand-alone basis. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Interpretation No. 46 (revised 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entitiesan
interpretation of ARB No. 51, the consolidated financial statements include the results of Time
Warner Entertainment-Advance/Newhouse Partnership (TWE-A/N) only for the systems that are
controlled by TWC and for which TWC holds an economic interest. The Time Warner corporate costs
include specified administrative services, including selected tax, human resources, legal,
information technology, treasury, financial, public policy and corporate and investor relations
services, and approximate Time Warners estimated cost for services rendered. 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 asset impairments, allowances for doubtful accounts, investments,
depreciation and amortization, business combinations, pension benefits, equity-based compensation,
income taxes, contingencies and certain programming arrangements. 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 years financial information to conform
to the June 30, 2008 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, the 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 Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2007 (the 2007 Form 10-K).
Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
of common shares outstanding during the period. Weighted-average common shares include shares of
Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Diluted net income per common share adjusts basic
net income per common share for the effects of stock options and restricted stock units only in the
periods in

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2008
Consideration Given by a Service Provider to Manufacturers or Resellers of Equipment
On
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)
Issue No. 06-1, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Service Provider to Manufacturers or
Resellers of Equipment Necessary for an End-Customer to Receive Service from the Service Provider
(EITF 06-1). EITF 06-1 provides that consideration provided to the manufacturers or resellers of
specialized equipment should be accounted for as a reduction of revenue if the consideration
provided is in the form of cash and the service provider directs that such cash be provided
directly to the customer. Otherwise, the consideration should be recorded as an expense. The
adoption of the provisions of EITF 06-1 did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements
On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of EITF Issue No. 06-10, Accounting for
Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements (EITF 06-10), which requires that
a company recognize a liability for the postretirement benefits associated with collateral
assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangements. The provisions of EITF 06-10 are applicable
in instances where the Company has contractually agreed to maintain a life insurance policy (i.e.,
the Company pays the premiums) for an employee in periods in which the employee is no longer
providing services. The adoption of EITF 06-10 did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurements
On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted certain provisions of FASB Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (Statement) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157), which establishes
the authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and
expands the required disclosures about fair value measurement. The provisions of FAS 157 adopted
on January 1, 2008 relate to financial assets and liabilities, as well as other assets and
liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis and did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial statements. The provisions of FAS 157 related to other
nonfinancial assets and liabilities will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2009, and will be
applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the provisions of FAS
157 related to other nonfinancial assets and liabilities will have on the Companys consolidated
financial statements.

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating
Securities
In June 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) EITF Issue No. 03-6-1, Determining
Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (FSP
EITF 03-6-1), in which the FASB concluded that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards
that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends (such as restricted stock units granted by the
Company) are considered participating securities. Because the awards are considered participating
securities, the issuing entity is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and
diluted earnings per share. The provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1 will be effective for TWC on January
1, 2009 and will be applied retroactively to all prior-period earnings per share computations. The
adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 is not expected to have a material impact on earnings per share amounts
in prior periods.
Business Combinations
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations
(FAS 141R). FAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business
combination (i) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, (ii) recognizes
and measures the goodwill acquired in a business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and
(iii) determines what information to disclose to enable users of financial statements to evaluate
the nature and financial effects of the business combination. FAS 141R will be applied
prospectively to business combinations that have an acquisition date on or after January 1, 2009.
The provisions of FAS 141R will not impact the Companys consolidated financial statements for
prior periods.
Noncontrolling Interests
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51 (FAS 160). The provisions of FAS 160 establish
accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary including the
accounting treatment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The provisions of FAS 160 will be
effective for TWC on January 1, 2009 and will be applied prospectively, except for the presentation
of the noncontrolling interests, which for all prior periods would be reclassified to equity in the
consolidated balance sheet and adjusted out of net income in the consolidated statement of
operations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the provisions of FAS 160 will have on
the Companys consolidated financial statements.
3. SEPARATION FROM TIME WARNER
On May 20, 2008, TWC and its subsidiaries, TWE and TW NY, entered into the Separation
Agreement with Time Warner and its subsidiaries, WCI, Historic TW and ATC. TWCs separation from
Time Warner will take place through a series of related transactions, the occurrence of each of
which is a condition to the next. First, Time Warner will complete certain internal restructuring
transactions. Next, following the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including those
described below, Historic TW will transfer its 12.43% non-voting common stock interest in TW NY to
TWC in exchange for 80 million newly issued shares of TWCs Class A common stock (the TW NY
Exchange). Following the TW NY Exchange, Time Warner will complete certain additional
restructuring steps that will make Time Warner the direct owner of all shares of TWCs Class A
common stock and Class B common stock previously held by its subsidiaries (all of Time Warners
restructuring transaction steps being referred to collectively as the TW Internal Restructuring).
Upon completion of the TW Internal Restructuring, TWCs board of directors or a committee thereof
will declare a special cash dividend to holders of TWCs outstanding Class
27
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
A common stock and Class
B common stock, including Time Warner, in an amount equal to $10.27 per share (aggregating $10.855
billion) (the Special Dividend). The Special Dividend will be paid prior to the
completion of TWCs separation from Time Warner. Following the payment of the Special
Dividend, TWC will file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amended and
restated certificate of incorporation, pursuant to which, among other things, each outstanding
share of TWC Class A common stock (including any shares of Class A common stock issued in the TW NY
Exchange) and TWC Class B common stock will automatically be converted into one share of common
stock, par value $.01 per share (the TWC Common Stock) (the Recapitalization). Once the TW NY
Exchange, the TW Internal Restructuring, the payment of the Special Dividend and the
Recapitalization have been completed, TWCs separation from Time Warner (the Separation) will
proceed in the form of either a pro rata dividend of all shares of TWC Common Stock held by Time
Warner to holders of Time Warners common stock or through the consummation by Time Warner of an
exchange offer of shares of TWC Common Stock for shares of Time Warners common stock. If the
Separation is effected as an exchange offer, after consummation of the exchange offer, Time Warner
will distribute to its stockholders, as a pro rata dividend, any TWC Common Stock that it continues
to hold. The distribution by Time Warner of all shares of TWC Common Stock held by Time Warner to
its stockholders as (a) a pro rata dividend, (b) an exchange offer or (c) a combination thereof is
referred to as the Distribution. The Separation, the TW NY Exchange, the TW Internal
Restructuring, the Special Dividend, the Recapitalization and the Distribution collectively are
referred to as the Separation Transactions.
Time Warner has the sole discretion, after consultation with TWC, to determine whether the
Separation will be effected as a pro rata dividend or through an exchange offer with its
stockholders, which decision has not yet been made.
The Separation Agreement contains customary covenants, and consummation of the Separation
Transactions is subject to customary closing conditions, including customary regulatory reviews and
local franchise approvals, the receipt by Time Warner of a private letter ruling from the Internal
Revenue Service indicating that the Separation Transactions will generally qualify as tax-free for
Time Warner and Time Warners stockholders, the receipt of certain tax opinions and the entry into
the 2008 Bridge Facility and the Supplemental Facility (each as defined in Note 4). Time Warner
and TWC expect the Separation Transactions to be consummated by the end of 2008 or in early 2009.

2008 Bond Offering
On June 16, 2008, TWC filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the Shelf
Registration Statement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows TWC to offer and
sell from time to time senior and subordinated debt securities and debt warrants. On June 19,
2008, TWC issued $5.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes and
debentures under the Shelf Registration

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
Statement (the 2008 Bond Offering), consisting of $1.5
billion principal amount of 6.20% notes due 2013 (the 2013 Notes), $2.0 billion principal amount
of 6.75% notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes) and $1.5
billion principal amount of 7.30% debentures due 2038 (the 2038 Debentures and, together
with the 2013 Notes and the 2018 Notes, the 2008 Debt Securities). The Company expects to use
the net proceeds of $4.963 billion from this issuance to finance, in part, the Special Dividend.
If the Separation is not consummated and the Special Dividend is not paid, the Company will use the
net proceeds from the issuance of the 2008 Debt Securities for general corporate purposes,
including repayment of indebtedness. The 2008 Debt Securities are guaranteed by TWE and TW NY (the
Guarantors).
The 2008 Debt Securities were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of April 9, 2007, as
it may be amended from time to time (the Indenture), by and among the Company, the Guarantors and
The Bank of New York, as trustee. The Indenture contains customary covenants relating to
restrictions on the ability of the Company or any material subsidiary to create liens and on the
ability of the Company and the Guarantors to consolidate, merge or convey or transfer substantially
all of their assets. The Indenture also contains customary events of default.
The 2013 Notes mature on July 1, 2013, the 2018 Notes mature on July 1, 2018 and the 2038
Debentures mature on July 1, 2038. Interest on the 2008 Debt Securities is payable semi-annually in
arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2009. The 2008 Debt
Securities are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank equally with its other
unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The guarantees of the 2008 Debt Securities are unsecured
senior obligations of the Guarantors and rank equally in right of payment with all other unsecured
and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors.
The 2008 Debt Securities may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at the Companys
option at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2008
Debt Securities being redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
payments on the 2008 Debt Securities discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at a
government treasury rate plus 40 basis points for each of the 2013 Notes, 2018 Notes and the 2038
Debentures as further described in the Indenture and the 2008 Debt Securities, plus, in each case,
accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date.
The 2008 Bridge Facility
In addition to the 2008 Debt Securities described above, on June 30, 2008, the Company entered
into a credit agreement with certain financial institutions for a senior unsecured term loan
facility in an aggregate principal amount of $9.0 billion with an initial maturity date that is 364
days after the borrowing date (the 2008 Bridge Facility) in order to finance, in part, the
Special Dividend. Subject to certain limited exceptions, to the extent the Company incurs debt
(other than an incurrence under the Cable Revolving Facility and its existing commercial paper
program), issues equity securities or completes asset sales prior to drawing on the 2008 Bridge
Facility, the commitments of the lenders under the 2008 Bridge Facility will be reduced by an
amount equal to the net cash proceeds from any such incurrence, issuance or sale. As a result of
the 2008 Bond Offering, immediately after the credit agreement was executed, the amount of the
commitments of the lenders under the 2008 Bridge Facility was reduced to $4.040 billion. The
Company may elect to extend the maturity date of the loans outstanding under the 2008 Bridge
Facility for an additional year. In the event the Company borrows any amounts under the 2008
Bridge Facility, subject to certain limited exceptions, the Company is required to use the net cash
proceeds from any subsequent incurrence of debt (other than an incurrence under the Cable Revolving
Facility and its existing commercial paper program), issuance of equity securities and asset sale
to prepay amounts outstanding under the 2008 Bridge Facility. The Company may prepay amounts
outstanding under the 2008 Bridge Facility at any time without penalty or premium, subject to
minimum amounts. TWC may not borrow any amounts under the 2008 Bridge Facility unless and until
the Special Dividend is declared in connection with the Separation.
30
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
TWCs obligations under the 2008 Bridge Facility are guaranteed by TWE and TW NY. Amounts
outstanding under the 2008 Bridge Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus an
applicable margin based on the Companys credit rating, which margin, at the time of the
Separation, is expected to be
100 basis points. In addition, the per annum interest rate under the 2008 Bridge Facility will
increase by 25 basis points every six months until all amounts outstanding under the 2008 Bridge
Facility are repaid.
The 2008 Bridge Facility contains a maximum leverage ratio covenant of five times the
consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) of TWC. The 2008 Bridge Facility also
contains conditions, covenants, representations and warranties and events of default substantially
identical to those contained in the Companys existing $3.045 billion five-year term loan facility
maturing on February 21, 2011.
The financial institutions commitments to fund borrowings under the 2008 Bridge Facility will
expire upon the earliest of (i) May 19, 2009, (ii) the date on which the Separation Agreement is
terminated in accordance with its terms or (iii) the completion of the Separation.
The Supplemental Facility
In May 2008, Time Warner (as lender) committed to lend TWC (as borrower) up to an aggregate
principal amount of $3.5 billion under a two-year senior unsecured supplemental term loan facility
(the Supplemental Facility). TWC may borrow under the Supplemental Facility at the final
maturity of the 2008 Bridge Facility to repay amounts then outstanding under the 2008 Bridge
Facility, if any. As a result of the 2008 Bond Offering, Time Warners original commitment was
reduced by $980 million to $2.520 billion. TWCs obligations under the Supplemental Facility will
be guaranteed by TWE and TW NY.
Time Warners commitment under the Supplemental Facility will be further reduced by (i) 50% of
any additional amounts by which the commitments under the 2008 Bridge Facility are further reduced
by the net cash proceeds of subsequent issuances of debt or equity or certain asset sales by the
Company prior to the Companys borrowing under the 2008 Bridge Facility and (ii) the amount by
which borrowing availability under the Cable Revolving Facility exceeds $2.0 billion on the date of
borrowing under the Supplemental Facility.
Debt Issuance Costs
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company capitalized debt issuance costs of $85
million in connection with the 2008 Bridge Facility and the 2008 Bond Offering. For the six months
ended June 30, 2007, the Company capitalized debt issuance costs of $28 million in connection with
the $5.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes and debentures issued on
April 9, 2007. These capitalized costs are amortized over the term of the related debt instrument
and are included as a component of interest expense. During the second quarter of 2008, the
Company expensed $31 million of debt issuance costs due to the reduction of the commitments under
the 2008 Bridge Facility as a result of the 2008 Bond Offering, which is included as a component of
interest expense, net, in the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2008.
5. GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLE ASSETS IMPAIRMENT TESTING
As discussed in more detail in the 2007 Form 10-K, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets, primarily the Companys cable franchise rights, are tested annually for impairment during
the fourth quarter, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events or substantive changes in
circumstances. As a result of entering into the Separation Agreement, the Company was required
under FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (FAS 142) to test goodwill and
cable franchise rights as of May 20, 2008 (the interim testing date).
31
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
The impairment test was performed on a basis consistent with the analysis performed as of
December 31, 2007. In performing goodwill impairment testing, the Company determines the fair
value of a reporting unit by using two valuation techniques: a discounted cash flow (DCF)
analysis and a market-based approach. The Company determines the fair value of the cable franchise
rights of a reporting unit using a DCF valuation analysis. A DCF valuation requires the exercise
of significant judgments, including judgments about appropriate discount rates based on the
assessment of risks inherent in the projected future
cash flows and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, including expected cash
flows beyond the Companys current long-term business planning period. In assessing the
reasonableness of its determined fair values, the Company evaluates its results against other value
indicators such as comparable company public trading values, research analyst estimates and values
observed in private market transactions.
The Companys interim impairment analysis did not result in any impairment charges during the
second quarter of 2008. However, the fair values of the cable franchise rights in certain of the
Companys reporting units, particularly the Texas reporting unit, were at or only modestly in
excess of their carrying values. Accordingly, any future declines in the estimated fair values of
the cable franchise rights in one or more of such reporting units would likely result in noncash
cable franchise rights impairment charges.
To illustrate the magnitude of a potential impairment charge related to changes in estimated
fair value, had the fair values of each of the reporting units and their respective cable franchise
rights been lower by 10% as of the interim testing date, the Company would have recorded cable
franchise rights impairment charges of approximately $750 million, and had each of the fair values
been lower by 20%, the Company would have recorded cable franchise rights impairment charges of
approximately $3.7 billion. In neither of these cases would the Company have been required to
record goodwill impairment charges.
6. SALE OF CERTAIN CABLE SYSTEMS
In June 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a group of small cable systems,
serving approximately 80,000 basic video subscribers and approximately 120,000 revenue generating
units as of June 30, 2008, located in areas outside of the Companys core geographic clusters. The sale price is
approximately $53 million, subject to certain adjustments. The
Company expects the sale of these cable systems will close during the fourth quarter of 2008,
subject to obtaining customary regulatory approvals. The Company does not expect that the sale of
these systems will have a material impact on the Companys future financial results; however, as a
result of a probable loss on the sale of these systems, the Company recorded a pretax impairment
loss of $45 million during the second quarter of 2008.
7. JOINT VENTURES
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture
In May 2008, TWC, Intel Corporation, Google Inc., Comcast Corporation (together with its
subsidiaries, Comcast) and Bright House Networks LLC entered into agreements to collectively
invest $3.2 billion in a wireless communications joint venture (the Sprint/Clearwire Joint
Venture), which is expected to be formed by Sprint Nextel Corporation (Sprint) and Clearwire
Corporation (Clearwire). TWCs share of such investment is expected to be approximately $550
million, which it expects to fund with cash on hand, borrowings under the Cable Revolving Facility
(as defined below), its commercial paper program or a combination thereof. Once formed, the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture will be focused on deploying the first nationwide fourth generation
wireless network to provide mobile broadband services to wholesale and retail customers. In
connection with its investment in the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture, TWC has entered into a
wholesale agreement with Sprint that allows TWC to offer wireless services utilizing Sprints 2G/3G
network. Upon closing, TWC also expects to enter into a wholesale agreement with the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture that would allow TWC to offer wireless services utilizing the
Sprint/Clearwire Joint Ventures broadband wireless network. The closing of these transactions,
which is
32

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
expected to occur by the end of the first half of 2009, is subject to customary regulatory
review and approvals. There can be no assurance that the formation of the Sprint/Clearwire Joint
Venture will be completed, or, if completed, that the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would
successfully deploy a nationwide mobile broadband network. If completed, the Companys investment
in the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting
and the Company expects that the Sprint/Clearwire Joint Venture would incur losses in its early
periods of operation.
Texas and Kansas City Cable Partners, L.P. Joint Venture
Texas and Kansas City Cable Partners, L.P. (TKCCP) was a 50-50 joint venture between a
consolidated subsidiary of TWC (TWE-A/N) and Comcast. On January 1, 2007, TKCCP distributed its
assets to its partners. TWC received certain cable assets located in Kansas City, south and west
Texas and New Mexico (the Kansas City Pool), which served approximately 788,000 basic video
subscribers as of December 31, 2006, and Comcast received the pool of assets consisting of the
Houston cable systems (the Houston Pool), which served approximately 795,000 basic video
subscribers as of December 31, 2006. TWC began consolidating the results of the Kansas City Pool on
January 1, 2007. TKCCP was formally dissolved on May 15, 2007. For accounting purposes, TWC
treated the distribution of TKCCPs assets as a sale of TWCs 50% equity interest in the Houston
Pool and as an acquisition of Comcasts 50% equity interest in the Kansas City Pool. As a result
of the sale of TWCs 50% equity interest in the Houston Pool, TWC recorded a pretax gain of $146
million in the first quarter of 2007, which is included as a component of other income, net, in the
consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
8. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
Time Warner Equity Plans
Prior to 2007, Time Warner granted options to purchase Time Warner common stock and shares of
Time Warner common stock (restricted stock) or restricted stock units (RSUs) under its equity
plans (collectively, the Time Warner Equity Awards) to employees of TWC. TWC recognizes
compensation expense for the fair value of such awards according to the provisions of FASB
Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. Time Warner has not granted Time Warner
Equity Awards to employees of TWC since TWC Class A common stock began to trade publicly in March
2007. In addition, employees of Time Warner who become employed by TWC retain their Time Warner
Equity Awards pursuant to their terms and TWC records equity-based compensation expense from the
date of transfer through the end of the applicable vesting period. The stock options granted by
Time Warner to employees of TWC were granted with exercise prices equal to, or in excess of, the
fair market value of a share of Time Warner common stock at the date of grant. Generally, the
stock options vest ratably over a four-year vesting period and expire ten years from the date of
grant. The awards of restricted stock or RSUs generally vest between three to five years from the
date of grant. Holders of Time Warner restricted stock and RSU awards are generally entitled to
receive cash dividends or dividend equivalents, respectively, paid by Time Warner during the period
of time that the restricted stock or RSU awards are unvested. Certain Time Warner stock options
and RSU awards provide for accelerated vesting upon an election to retire pursuant to TWCs defined
benefit retirement plans or after reaching a specified age and years of service.

TWC Equity Plan
The Time Warner Cable Inc. 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) provides for the
issuance of up to 100 million shares of TWC Class A common stock to directors, employees and
certain non-employee advisors of TWC. Stock options have been granted under the 2006 Plan with
exercise prices equal to the fair market value of TWC Class A common stock at the date of grant.
Generally, the stock options vest ratably over a four-year vesting period and expire ten years from
the date of grant. Certain stock option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon an election to
retire pursuant to TWCs defined benefit retirement plans or after reaching a specified age and
years of service. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, TWC granted approximately 4.7 million
stock options at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $10.25 ($6.15, net of tax) per option.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, TWC granted approximately 2.8 million stock options at a
weighted-average grant date fair value of $13.34 ($8.00, net of tax) per option. The table below
presents the weighted-average values of the assumptions used to value TWC stock options at their
grant date for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.

Pursuant to the 2006 Plan, the Company also granted RSU awards, which generally vest over a
four-year period from the date of grant. Certain RSU awards provide for accelerated vesting upon
an election to retire pursuant to TWCs defined benefit retirement plans or after reaching a
specified age and years of service. Shares of TWC Class A common stock will generally be issued in
connection with the vesting of an RSU. RSUs awarded to non-employee directors are not subject to
vesting restrictions and the shares underlying the RSUs will be issued in connection with a
directors termination of service as a director. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, TWC
granted approximately 2.8 million RSUs at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $27.59 per
RSU. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, TWC granted approximately 2.1 million RSUs at a
weighted-average grant date fair value of $37.07 per RSU.

9. PENSION COSTS
The Company participates in various funded and unfunded noncontributory defined benefit
pension plans administered by Time Warner. Pension benefits are determined based on formulas that
reflect the employees years of service and compensation during their employment period and
participation in the plans. TWC uses a December 31 measurement date for its plans. A summary of
the components of the net periodic benefit costs is as follows (in millions):

After considering the funded status of the Companys defined benefit pension plans, movements
in the discount rate, investment performance and related tax consequences, the Company may choose
to make contributions to its pension plans in any given year. As of June 30, 2008, there were no
minimum required contributions for TWCs funded plans. However, the Company anticipates making
discretionary cash contributions of at least $150 million to its funded defined benefit pension
plans in 2008, subject to market conditions and other considerations, $100 million of which has
been contributed as of June 30, 2008. For the Companys unfunded plan, contributions will continue
to be made to the extent benefits are paid. Benefit payments for the unfunded plan are expected to
be $2 million in 2008.
10. MERGER-RELATED AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS
Cumulatively, through December 31, 2007, the Company expensed non-capitalizable merger-related
costs of $56 million associated with the 2006 transactions with Adelphia Communications Corporation
and Comcast, which had been fully paid as of December 31, 2007. For the six months ended June 30,
2007, the Company incurred costs of $7 million and made payments of $10 million associated with
merger-related activities.
The Company has incurred cumulative restructuring costs of $65 million since 2005 as part of
its broader plans to simplify its organizational structure and enhance its customer focus, and
payments of $56 million have been made against this accrual as of June 30, 2008. Of the remaining
$9 million liability, $5 million is classified as a current liability and $4 million is classified
as a noncurrent liability in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2008. Amounts are
expected to be paid through 2011.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
On September 20, 2007, Brantley, et al. v. NBC Universal, Inc., et al. was filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Central District of California against the Company and Time Warner. The
complaint, which also named as defendants several other programming content providers
(collectively, the programmer defendants) as well as other cable and satellite providers
(collectively, the distributor defendants), alleged violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman
Antitrust Act. Among other things, the complaint alleged coordination between and among the
programmer defendants to sell and/or license programming on a bundled basis to the distributor
defendants, who in turn purportedly offer that programming to subscribers in packaged tiers, rather
than on a per channel (or à la carte) basis. Plaintiffs, who seek to represent a purported
nationwide class of cable and satellite subscribers, demand, among other things, unspecified treble
monetary damages and an injunction to compel the offering of channels to subscribers on an à la
carte basis. On December 3, 2007, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in this action (the
First Amended Complaint) that, among other things, dropped the Section 2 claims and all
allegations of horizontal coordination. On December 21, 2007, the programmer defendants, including
Time Warner, and the distributor defendants, including TWC, filed motions to dismiss the First
Amended Complaint. On March 10, 2008, the court granted these motions, dismissing the First Amended
Complaint with leave to amend. On March 20, 2008, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint (the
Second Amended Complaint) that modified certain aspects of the First Amended Complaint in an
attempt to address the deficiencies noted by the court in its prior dismissal order. On June 25,
2008, the court denied the motions made on April 22, 2008 by the programmer defendants, including
Time Warner, and the distributor defendants, including the Company, to dismiss the Second Amended
Complaint. On July 14, 2008, the programmer defendants and the distributor defendants filed
motions requesting the court to certify its June 25 order for interlocutory appeal to the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit
vigorously.
On June 22, 2005, Mecklenburg County filed suit against TWE-A/N in the General Court of
Justice District Court Division, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Mecklenburg County, the
franchisor in TWE-A/Ns Mecklenburg County cable system, alleges that TWE-A/Ns predecessor failed
to construct an institutional network in 1981 and that TWE-A/N assumed that obligation upon the
transfer of the franchise in 1995. Mecklenburg County is seeking compensatory damages and TWE-A/Ns
release of certain video channels it is currently using on the cable system. On April 14, 2006,
TWE-A/N filed a motion for summary judgment, which is pending. TWE-A/N intends to defend against
this lawsuit vigorously.
On June 16, 1998, plaintiffs in Andrew Parker and Eric DeBrauwere, et al. v. Time Warner
Entertainment Company, L.P. and Time Warner Cable filed a purported nationwide class action in U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of New York claiming that TWE sold its subscribers
personally identifiable information and failed to inform subscribers of their privacy rights in
violation of the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984 and common law. The plaintiffs seek
damages and declaratory and injunctive relief. On August 6, 1998, TWE filed a motion to dismiss,
which was denied on September 7, 1999. On December 8, 1999, TWE filed a motion to deny class
certification, which was granted on January 9, 2001 with respect to monetary damages, but denied
with respect to injunctive relief. On June 2, 2003, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second
Circuit vacated the district courts decision denying class certification as a matter of law and
remanded the case for further proceedings on class certification and other matters. On May 4,
2004, plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, which the Company opposed. On October 25,
2005, the court granted preliminary approval of a class settlement arrangement on terms that were
not material to the Company, but final approval of that settlement was denied on January 26, 2007.
The parties subsequently reached a revised settlement to resolve this action on terms that are not
material to the Company and submitted their agreement to the district court on April 2, 2008. On
May 8, 2008, the district court granted preliminary approval of the settlement, but it is still
subject to the
36
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
district courts final approval, and there can be no assurance that the settlement
will receive this approval. If final approval of the revised settlement is denied, the Company
intends to defend against this lawsuit
vigorously.
Certain Patent Litigation
On September 1, 2006, Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing, L.P. (Katz) filed a complaint in the
U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that TWC and several other cable
operators, among other defendants, infringe a number of patents purportedly relating to the
Companys customer call center operations and/or voicemail services. The plaintiff is seeking
unspecified monetary damages as well as injunctive relief. On March 20, 2007, this case, together
with other lawsuits filed by Katz, was made subject to a Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) Order
transferring the case for pretrial proceedings to the U.S. District Court for the Central District
of California. In April 2008, TWC (among other defendants) filed motions for summary judgment,
arguing that a number of claims in the patents at issue are invalid under Section 112 of the Patent
Act. On June 19, 2008, the court issued an order granting, in part, and denying, in part, those
motions. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously.
On July 14, 2006, Hybrid Patents Inc. filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the
Eastern District of Texas alleging that the Company and a number of other cable operators infringed
a patent purportedly relating to high-speed data and IP-based telephony services. The plaintiff is
seeking unspecified monetary damages as well as injunctive relief. The Company intends to defend
against the claim vigorously.
On June 1, 2006, Rembrandt Technologies, LP (Rembrandt) filed a complaint in the U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging that the Company and a number of other
cable operators infringed several patents purportedly related to a variety of technologies,
including high-speed data and IP-based telephony services. In addition, on September 13, 2006,
Rembrandt filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging
that the Company infringes several patents purportedly related to high-speed cable modem internet
products and services. In each of these cases, the plaintiff is seeking unspecified monetary
damages as well as injunctive relief. On June 18, 2007, these cases, along with other lawsuits
filed by Rembrandt, were made subject to an MDL Order transferring the case for pretrial
proceedings to the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The Company intends to defend
against these lawsuits vigorously.
On April 26, 2005, Acacia Media Technologies (AMT) filed suit against TWC in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that TWC infringes several patents
held by AMT. AMT has publicly taken the position that delivery of broadcast video (except live
programming such as sporting events), pay-per-view, VOD and ad insertion services over cable
systems infringe its patents. AMT has brought similar actions regarding the same patents against
numerous other entities, and all of the previously pending litigations have been made the subject
of an MDL Order consolidating the actions for pretrial activity in the U.S. District Court for the
Northern District of California. On October 25, 2005, the TWC action was consolidated into the MDL
proceedings. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified monetary damages as well as injunctive relief.
The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously.
From time to time, the Company receives notices from third parties claiming that it infringes
their intellectual property rights. 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 may require the Company to indemnify the other
party for certain third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which could increase the
Companys 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
As part of the 2003 restructuring of TWE, Time Warner agreed to indemnify the cable businesses
of TWE 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. Although Time Warner has
agreed to indemnify the cable businesses of TWE against such liabilities, TWE remains a named party
in certain litigation matters.
The costs and other effects of pending or future litigation, governmental investigations,
legal and administrative cases and proceedings (whether civil or criminal), settlements, judgments
and investigations, claims and changes in those 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 Companys business,
financial condition and operating results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Time Warner Entertainment Company, L.P. (TWE) and TW NY Cable Holding Inc. (TW NY and,
together with TWE, the Guarantor Subsidiaries) are subsidiaries of Time Warner Cable Inc. (the
Parent Company). The Guarantor Subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally, jointly and
severally, directly or indirectly, guaranteed the debt issued by the Parent Company in its 2007
registered exchange offer and its 2008 public offering. The Parent Company owns 100% of the voting
interests, directly or indirectly, of both TWE and TW NY.
The Securities and Exchange Commissions rules require that condensed consolidating financial
information be provided for subsidiaries that have guaranteed debt of a registrant issued in a
public offering, where each such guarantee is full and unconditional and where the voting interests
of the subsidiaries are 100% owned by the registrant. Set forth below are condensed consolidating
financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of
(i) the Parent Company, (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis (as such guarantees are
joint and several), (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.
There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Companys ability to obtain funds
from any of its 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 Companys interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and
the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries interests in the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries, where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be
consolidated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All intercompany balances and
transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries have been eliminated, as shown in the column Eliminations.
The accounting bases in all subsidiaries, including goodwill and identified intangible assets,
have been allocated to the applicable subsidiaries. Interest income (expense) is determined based
on third-party debt and the relevant intercompany amounts within the respective legal entity.
Time Warner Cable Inc. is not a separate taxable entity for U.S. federal and various state
income tax purposes and its results are included in the consolidated U.S. federal and certain state
income tax returns of Time Warner Inc. In the condensed consolidating financial statements, tax
expense has been presented based on each subsidiarys legal entity basis. Deferred taxes of the
Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been presented
based upon the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the respective assets and
liabilities of the applicable entities.
Costs incurred by the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries or the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries are allocated to the various entities based on the relative usage of such expenses.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Brantley, et al. described on page 37 of the 2007
Form 10-K, and page 35 of the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March
31, 2008 (the March 2008 Form 10-Q). On June 25, 2008, the court denied the motions made on April
22, 2008 by the programmer defendants, including Time Warner, and the distributor defendants,
including the Company, to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint. On July 14, 2008, the programmer
defendants and the distributor defendants filed motions requesting the court to certify its June 25
order for interlocutory appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Andrew Parker and Eric DeBrauwere, et al. described
on page 38 of the 2007 Form 10-K and page 35 of the March 2008 Form 10-Q. On May 8, 2008, the
district court granted preliminary approval of the revised settlement that was submitted to the
district court on April 2, 2008. The settlement is still subject to the district courts final
approval, and there can be no assurance that the settlement will receive this approval. If final
approval of the revised settlement is denied, the Company intends to defend against this lawsuit
vigorously.
Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing, L.P. described
on page 38 of the 2007 Form 10-K. In April 2008, TWC (among other defendants) filed motions for
summary judgment, arguing that a number of claims in the patents at issue are invalid under Section
112 of the Patent Act. On June 19, 2008, the court issued an order granting, in part, and denying,
in part, those motions.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
As discussed above, on May 20, 2008, TWC entered into a Separation Agreement, the terms of
which will govern TWCs separation from Time Warner. The Separation Transactions are expected to be
consummated by the end of 2008 or in early 2009. The following Risk Factors have been included as
a result of TWCs entry into the Separation Agreement and should be read in conjunction with the
Risk Factors set forth in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the 2007 Form 10-K.
Risks Relating to the Separation
TWC may be unable to complete the Separation and, if the Separation is completed, TWC may not
realize some or all of the expected benefits of the Separation.
There can be no assurance that the Separation will be completed in the manner and timeframe
contemplated, or at all. Completion of the Separation is subject to the satisfaction of a number of
conditions, including:
|
|
|
receipt of certain FCC approvals; |
|
|
|
receipt of certain required local franchise approvals; and |
|
|
|
receipt of a favorable tax ruling from the Internal Revenue Service and tax opinions
from counsel as to the tax-free nature of the Separation Transactions. |
The Separation Agreement may also be terminated by Time Warner or the Company prior to the
payment of the Special Dividend if there is a material adverse effect on the
Company. In addition, there are various risks that are inherent in the Separation process, such as
the increased demands on the Companys management as a result of executing the plan for the
Separation in addition to fulfilling their regular responsibilities.
If
the Separation is not completed for any reason, the Company will not be able to realize its expected
benefits, including increased long-term strategic, operational and regulatory flexibility and a
more efficient capital structure, and the price of
TWCs Class A common stock may decline to the extent that the market price reflects positive
assumptions that the Separation will be completed and the related benefits will be realized. The
Company will also incur substantial costs related to the Separation (such as legal, accounting and
advisory fees) that will not be recouped in the event that the Separation does not occur.
49
Even if the Separation is completed, the Company cannot predict with certainty the extent to
which the above-mentioned benefits actually will be achieved, if at all. Furthermore, even if some
or all of these benefits are achieved, they may not result in the creation of value for TWCs
stockholders.
If the Separation Transactions, including the Distribution, do not qualify as tax-free, either as a
result of actions taken or not taken by TWC or as a result of the failure of certain
representations by TWC to be true, then TWC would have to indemnify Time Warner for its taxes
resulting from such disqualification, which would be significant. In addition, the restrictions in
connection with the tax treatment of the Distribution could limit TWCs ability to engage in
certain corporate transactions.
The Separation Transactions are conditioned upon Time Warners receipt of a private letter
ruling from the Internal Revenue Service and Time Warners and TWCs receipt of opinions of tax
counsel confirming that the Separation Transactions should generally qualify as tax-free to Time
Warner and its stockholders. The ruling and opinions will rely on certain facts, assumptions,
representations, and undertakings from Time Warner and TWC regarding the past and future conduct of
the companies businesses and other matters. If any of these facts, assumptions, representations or
undertakings are incorrect or not otherwise satisfied, Time Warner and its stockholders may not be
able to rely on the ruling or the opinions and could be subject to significant tax liabilities.
Notwithstanding the private letter ruling and opinions, the Internal Revenue Service could
determine on audit that the Separation Transactions should be treated as taxable transactions if it
determines that any of these facts, assumptions, representations or undertakings are not correct or
have been violated, or for other reasons, including as a result of significant changes in the stock
ownership of Time Warner or TWC after the Distribution.
Under the tax sharing agreement among Time Warner and TWC, TWC generally would be required to
indemnify Time Warner against its taxes resulting from the failure of any of the Separation
Transactions to qualify as tax-free as a result of (i) certain actions or failures to act by TWC or
(ii) the failure of certain representations to be made by TWC to be true. Due to the potential
impact of significant stock ownership changes on the taxability of the Separation Transactions,
TWCs indemnification obligations may prevent it from entering into transactions that might
otherwise be advantageous, such as issuing equity securities to satisfy financing needs or
acquiring businesses or assets with equity securities if such issuances would exceed certain
thresholds and such actions could be considered part of a plan or series of related transactions
that include the Distribution.
In addition, even if TWC bears no contractual responsibility for taxes related to a failure of
the Separation Transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment, Treasury regulation
section 1.1502-6 imposes on TWC several liability for all Time Warner federal income tax
obligations relating to the period during which TWC was a member of the Time Warner federal
consolidated tax group, including the date of the Separation Transactions. Similar provisions may
apply under foreign, state, or local law. Absent TWC causing the Separation Transactions to not
qualify as tax-free, Time Warner has indemnified TWC against such several liability arising from a
failure of the Separation Transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment.
As part of the Separation, TWC has incurred and will incur additional debt, which may limit its
flexibility or prevent it from taking advantage of business opportunities.
In connection with the Separation, the Company incurred $5.0 billion of indebtedness pursuant
to the 2008 Bond Offering to fund, in part, the Special Dividend and is expected to incur
additional indebtedness to fund the Special Dividend through a combination of borrowings under the
2008 Bridge Facility, the Companys existing bank credit facilities and/or the issuance of debt in
the capital markets. The increased indebtedness and the terms of these financing arrangements and
any future indebtedness will impose various restrictions and covenants on the Company that could
limit its ability to respond to market conditions, provide for capital investment needs or take
advantage of business opportunities. In addition, as a result of the Companys increased
borrowings, its interest expense will be higher than it has been in the past, which will affect the
Companys profitability and cash flows.

Pursuant to its execution of the Separation Agreement on May 20, 2008, WCI, in its capacity as
the holder of a majority of TWCs outstanding Class A common stock and all of its Class B common
stock (representing in the aggregate 1,496,000,000 votes), consented to, among other things, (a)
TWCs issuance of 80 million shares of TWCs Class A common stock to Historic TW in exchange for
Historic TWs interest in TW NY (the Issuance), (b) the adoption of TWCs Second Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the Charter Amendment), which will be filed only in
connection with the Separation pursuant to the Separation Agreement, and (c) certain amendments to
the Time Warner Cable Inc. 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan Amendment).
On June 16, 2008, TWC distributed to the holders of record of its Class A common stock a
notice pursuant to Section 228(e) of the Delaware General Corporation Law reporting the approval of
these actions by its majority stockholder by written consent without a meeting or prior notice and
without a vote being taken. TWC will file an Information Statement pursuant to Section 14(c) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the SEC and furnish it to its stockholders.
Each of the Issuance, the Charter Amendment and the Incentive Plan Amendment has no effect until at
least 20 calendar days after the Information Statement has been furnished to TWCs stockholders.
Item 5. Other Information.
Effective on August 5, 2008, the Company entered into an amendment to its employment agreement
with Landel C. Hobbs, its Chief Operating Officer. The amendment to Mr. Hobbss employment
agreement provides that, in the event that his employment is terminated without cause, unless he is
then eligible for retirement, all his TWC equity awards that would have vested under the agreement, will
vest immediately on the date he ceases to be considered an employee of the Company and any stock
options that so vest, as well as his previously vested options, will remain exercisable for three
years thereafter (but not beyond the original terms of the options).
Effective on August 5, 2008, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Robert D.
Marcus, its Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, that clarifies that under
his current employment agreement with the Company, (i) the Separation would not have an impact on
the vesting or term of Mr.
51
Marcuss TWC equity awards and (ii) upon a termination without cause,
unless he is then eligible for retirement, all of his vested TWC and Time Warner stock options (not only those that vest as a result of such termination) would remain exercisable for three years after he ceases
to be considered an employee of the Company (but not beyond the original terms of the options).
