Cable One Reports Second Quarter 2021 Results

Cable One, Inc. (NYSE: CABO) (the “Company” or “Cable One”) today reported financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Cable One completed the acquisition of Valu-Net LLC (“Valu-Net”) on July 1, 2020, the contribution of its Anniston, Alabama system (the “Anniston System”) to Hargray Communications, a data, video and voice services provider (“Hargray”), on October 1, 2020 (the “Anniston Exchange”), and the acquisition of the remaining equity interests in Hargray that it did not already own (the “Hargray Acquisition”) on May 3, 2021. The results discussed below and presented in the tables within this press release include Valu-Net and Hargray operations and exclude Anniston System operations for the periods since the completion of their respective acquisitions or disposition. The Anniston System was included in the Hargray Acquisition and its operations are included in the Company’s results with the Hargray operations.

Second Quarter 2021 Highlights:

  • Residential data primary service units (“PSUs”) grew by approximately 124,000, or 15.5%, sequentially and grew by approximately 165,000, or 21.7%, year-over-year. Approximately 110,000 residential data PSUs were acquired in the Hargray Acquisition, of which approximately 19,000 were contributed to Hargray in the Anniston Exchange. Business services PSUs grew by approximately 23,000, or 17.8%, sequentially and grew by approximately 23,000, or 18.0%, compared to the prior year. Approximately 20,000 business services PSUs were acquired in the Hargray Acquisition, of which approximately 4,000 were contributed to Hargray in the Anniston Exchange.
  • On May 3, 2021, the Company completed the Hargray Acquisition, which represented the purchase of approximately 85% of Hargray on a fully diluted basis. The approximately $2.0 billion cash purchase price implied a $2.2 billion total enterprise value for 100% of Hargray on a cash-free and debt-free basis. The Company financed the Hargray Acquisition with cash on hand and proceeds from indebtedness.

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

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results Compared to Second Quarter 2020

Revenues increased $73.4 million, or 22.4%, to $401.7 million for the second quarter of 2021, including $50.6 million attributable to Hargray operations. The remaining increase was driven primarily by residential data, business services and other revenue growth, partially offset by decreases in residential video and residential voice revenues. For the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, residential data revenues comprised 51.7% and 50.0% of total revenues, respectively, and business services revenues comprised 19.1% and 17.8% of total revenues, respectively.

Operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) were $112.4 million in the second quarter of 2021 and increased $6.3 million, or 6.0%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to $14.8 million of additional expenses related to Hargray operations, partially offset by a $7.3 million reduction in programming expenses and a $3.1 million decrease in labor and other compensation-related costs. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues were 28.0% and 32.3% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $88.0 million and $65.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to $13.6 million of additional expenses related to Hargray operations and increases of $4.9 million in labor and other compensation-related costs, $3.5 million in acquisition-related costs, $3.2 million in health insurance costs, $1.6 million in professional fees and $1.0 million in system conversion costs, partially offset by a $5.8 million decrease in bad debt expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 21.9% and 19.8% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $84.9 million for the second quarter of 2021, including $15.7 million from Hargray operations, and increased $19.3 million, or 29.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of revenues was 21.1% and 20.0% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Interest expense increased $12.3 million, or 74.2%, to $28.9 million, driven primarily by additional outstanding debt and higher interest rate swap settlement expense, partially offset by lower interest rates.

Other income, net, was $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2021 and consisted primarily of a $33.4 million non-cash gain on fair value adjustment associated with the Company’s existing investment in Hargray upon the Hargray Acquisition and interest and investment income, partially offset by a $21.4 million non-cash loss on fair value adjustment associated with the call and put options to acquire the remaining equity interests in Mega Broadband Investments Holdings LLC. Other income, net, was $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2020 and consisted of interest and investment income.

Income tax benefit was $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to income tax provision of $13.2 million in the prior year quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate was -8.7% and 17.4% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The changes were due primarily to a $35.4 million increase in income tax benefit from the reversal of a pre-existing deferred tax liability on the Company’s investment in Hargray, partially offset by a $5.2 million increase in income tax expense related to a change in valuation allowance and a $2.8 million income tax benefit in the prior year attributable to the net operating loss carryback provision of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act that did not recur in the current year.

Net income was $106.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $62.5 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of $43.6 million.

Adjusted EBITDA was $213.2 million (including $22.3 million from Hargray operations) and $163.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of 30.7%. Capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2021 totaled $89.3 million (including $18.5 million with respect to Hargray operations) compared to $78.7 million for the second quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2021 was $123.9 million (including $3.8 million from Hargray operations) compared to $84.5 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 46.6%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2021, the Company had $449.0 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand compared to $574.9 million at December 31, 2020.

The Company had $459.0 million available for borrowing under its revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2021.

Additional Information Available on Website

The information in this press release should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021 (the “Second Quarter 2021 Form 10-Q”), which will be posted on the “SEC Filings” section of the Cable One Investor Relations website at ir.cableone.net when it is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors and others interested in more information about Cable One should consult the Company’s website, which is regularly updated with financial and other important information about the Company.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Note:

All totals, percentages and year-over-year changes are calculated using exact numbers. Minor differences may exist due to rounding.

(1)

Due to the recency of the May 3, 2021 Hargray Acquisition, certain Hargray bulk accounts are counted as business PSUs and business customer relationships, whereas Cable One classifies such accounts as residential PSUs and residential customer relationships. Cable One is currently in the process of aligning Hargray’s methodology with its methodology so that future PSU and customer relationship counts used in ARPU calculations are determined on the same basis.

(2)

Average monthly revenue per unit (“ARPU”) values represent the applicable quarterly residential service revenues (excluding installation and activation fees) divided by the corresponding average of the number of PSUs at the beginning and end of each period, divided by three, except that for any PSUs added or subtracted as a result of an acquisition or divestiture occurring during the period, the associated ARPU values represent the applicable residential service revenues (excluding installation and activation fees) divided by the pro-rated average number of PSUs during such period.

(3)

ARPU values represent quarterly business services revenues divided by the average of the number of business customer relationships at the beginning and end of each period, divided by three, except that for any business customer relationships added or subtracted as a result of an acquisition or divestiture occurring during the period, the associated ARPU values represent business services revenues divided by the pro-rated average number of business customer relationships during such period.
