Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
You should carefully review the information contained in this Quarterly Report and in other reports
or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC).
In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial
performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called forward-looking statements by words
such as may, will, should, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates,
predicts, potential, or continue or the negative of those words and other comparable words.
These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from historical results or those we anticipate. Factors that could
cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include, but
are not limited to: existing and future competition in our video, high-speed Internet access and
phone businesses; our ability to achieve anticipated customer and revenue growth and to
successfully implement our growth strategy, including the introduction of new products and services
and acquisitions; increasing programming costs; changes in laws and regulations; our ability to
generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations and access capital to maintain
our financial flexibility; acquisitions and other strategic transactions and the other risks and
uncertainties discussed in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2006 and other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.
Statements included in this Quarterly Report are based upon information known to us as of the date
that this Quarterly Report is filed with the SEC, and we assume no obligation to update or alter
our forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by applicable federal
securities laws.

1. ORGANIZATION
Mediacom LLC (Mediacom, and collectively with its subsidiaries, the Company, we, us), a New
York limited liability company wholly-owned by Mediacom Communications Corporation (MCC), is
involved in the acquisition and operation of cable systems serving smaller cities and towns in the
United States.
We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). In the opinion of management,
such statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated results of operations and financial position
for the interim periods presented. The accounting policies followed during such interim periods
reported are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America and are consistent with those applied during annual periods. For a summary of our
accounting policies and other information, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results that might be expected for future interim periods or for the full year
ending December 31, 2007.
We
rely on our parent, MCC, for various services such as corporate and administrative
support. Our financial position, results of operations and cash flows could differ from
those that would have resulted had we operated autonomously or as an entity independent of
MCC.
Mediacom
Capital Corporation (Mediacom Capital), a New York
corporation wholly-owned by us,
co-issued, jointly and severally with us, public debt securities. Mediacom Capital has no
operations, revenues or cash flows, and has no assets, liabilities or stockholders equity on its
consolidated balance sheets other than a one-hundred dollar receivable from an affiliate and the
same dollar amount of common stock. Therefore, separate financial statements have not been
presented for this entity.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to conform to the current years
presentation.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of
fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and expands on required disclosures
about fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157 will be effective as of January 1, 2008 and will be
applied prospectively. We have not completed our evaluation of SFAS No. 157 to determine
the impact that adoption will have on our consolidated financial condition or results of
operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS
No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at
fair value. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. We do not expect that this Statement will have a
material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Bank Credit Facilities
The average interest rate on outstanding debt under our bank credit facilities as of June 30, 2007
and 2006, was 7.0% and 6.7%, respectively, before giving effect to the interest rate exchange
agreements discussed below. As of June 30, 2007, we had unused credit commitments of approximately
$341.6 million under our bank credit facilities, all of which could be borrowed and used for
general corporate purposes based on the terms and conditions of our debt arrangements. We were in
compliance with all covenants of our debt arrangements as of June 30, 2007.
As of June 30, 2007, approximately $18.1 million of letters of credit were issued to various
parties as collateral for our performance relating primarily to insurance and franchise
requirements.
Interest Rate Exchange Agreements
We use
interest rate exchange agreements in order to fix the interest rate
on our floating rate
debt. As of June 30, 2007, we had interest rate exchange agreements with various banks pursuant to
which the interest rate on $400.0 million is fixed at a weighted average rate of approximately
5.0%. These agreements have been accounted for on a mark-to-market basis as of, and for the three
months ended June 30, 2007. Our interest rate exchange agreements are scheduled to expire in the
amounts of $300.0 million and $100.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010,
respectively. As of, and for the three months ended, June 30, 2007 and 2006, based on the
mark-to-market valuation, we recorded on our consolidated balance sheet a net accumulated
investment in derivatives of $2.3 million and $8.5 million, respectively, which are components of
prepaid and other non-current assets, and we recorded in our consolidated statements of operations
a gain on derivatives, net of $3.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, we recorded in our consolidated financial statements of operations a
gain on derivatives, net of $1.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
6. MEMBERS DEFICIT
Share-based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, MCC adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, requiring the cost
of all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be
recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values at the grant date, or the date of
later modification, over the requisite service period.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We maintain an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP). Under the ESPP, all employees are allowed to
participate in the purchase of MCCs Class A common stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market
value on the first or last day of each six month offering period. Shares purchased by employees
amounted to 14,558 and 19,063 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The
net proceeds to us were less than $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2007
and 2006, respectively. The net proceeds to us were approximately $0.1 million for each of the six
months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
7. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATED COMPANY
We have a $150.0 million preferred equity investment in Mediacom Broadband LLC, a wholly owned
subsidiary of MCC. The preferred equity investment has a 12% annual cash dividend, payable
quarterly in cash. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we
received in aggregate $4.5 million and $9.0 million,
respectively, in cash dividends on the preferred equity.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
We are named as a defendant in a putative class action, captioned Gary Ogg and Janice Ogg
v. Mediacom, LLC, pending in the Circuit Court of Clay County, Missouri, by which the plaintiffs
are seeking class-wide damages for alleged trespasses on land owned by private parties. The lawsuit
was originally filed on April 24, 2001. Pursuant to various agreements with the relevant state,
county or other local authorities and with utility companies, we placed interconnect fiber
optic cable within state and county highway rights-of-way and on utility poles in areas of Missouri
not presently encompassed by a cable franchise. The lawsuit alleges
that we were required
but failed to obtain permission from the landowners to place the cable. A summary judgment ruling
in favor of us was overturned by the Missouri Court of Appeals. The lawsuit has not made a
claim for specified damages. An order declaring that this action is appropriate for class relief
was entered on April 14, 2006. Our petition for an interlocutory appeal or in the
alternative a writ of mandamus was denied by order of the Supreme Court of Missouri, dated October
31, 2006. We intend to vigorously defend against any claims made by the plaintiffs,
including at trial, and on appeal, if necessary. We have tendered the
lawsuit to our
insurance carrier for defense and indemnification. The carrier has
agreed to defend us
under a reservation of rights, and a declaratory judgment action is pending regarding the carriers
defense and coverage responsibilities. We are unable to reasonably evaluate the likelihood
of an unfavorable outcome or quantify the possible damages, if any, associated with these matters,
or judge whether or not those damages would be material to our consolidated financial position,
results of operations, cash flows or business.
We, our subsidiaries, MCC and other affiliated companies are also involved in various
legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the
ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material
adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or business.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial
statements as of, and for the three and six months ended, June 30, 2007 and 2006, and with our
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Overview
We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mediacom Communications Corporation (MCC). Through our
interactive broadband network, we provide our customers with a wide array of broadband products and
services, including video services, such as video-on-demand (VOD), high-definition television
(HDTV) and digital video recorders (DVRs), high-speed data access (HSD) and phone service. We
offer triple-play bundles of video, HSD and phone to approximately 77% of our estimated homes
passed. Bundled products and services offer our customers a single provider contact for ordering,
provisioning, billing and customer care.
As of June 30, 2007, our cable systems passed an estimated 1.36 million homes and served 616,000
basic video subscribers in 22 states. We provide digital video service to 228,000 customers,
representing a penetration of 37.0% of our basic subscribers. We also currently provide HSD to
278,000 customers, representing a penetration of 20.5% of our estimated homes passed. We introduced
phone service during the second quarter of 2005 and provided service to about 58,000 customers as
of June 30, 2007, representing a penetration of 5.5% of our estimated marketable phone homes.
We evaluate our growth, in part, by measuring the number of revenue generating units (RGUs) we
serve. As of June 30, 2007, we served 1.18 million RGUs, which represent the total of basic
subscribers and digital, data and phone customers.
We have faced increasing levels of competition for our video programming services over the past few
years, mostly from DBS providers. Since they have been permitted to deliver local television
broadcast signals beginning in 1999, DirecTV and Echostar now have essentially ubiquitous coverage
in our markets with local television broadcast signals. Their ability to deliver local television
broadcast signals has been the primary cause of our loss of basic subscribers in recent years.
Retransmission Consent
Prior to February 2007, cable systems serving our subscribers carried the broadcast signals of 21
local broadcast stations owned or programmed by Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Sinclair) under a
month-to-month retransmission arrangement terminable at the end of any month on 45-days notice. Ten
of these stations are affiliates of one of the big-4 networks (ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC) that we
deliver to approximately half of our total subscribers. The other stations are affiliates of the
recently launched CW or MyNetwork broadcast networks or are unaffiliated with a national broadcast
network.
On September 28, 2006, Sinclair exercised its right to deliver notice to us to terminate
retransmission of all of its stations effective December 1, 2006, but subsequently agreed to extend
our right to carriage of its signals until January 5, 2007. We and Sinclair were unable to reach
agreement, and on January 5, 2007, Sinclair directed us to discontinue carriage of its stations. On
February 2, 2007, we and Sinclair reached a multi-year agreement and Sinclair stations were
immediately restored on the affected cable systems.
Adjusted OIBDA
We
define Adjusted OIBDA as operating income before depreciation and amortization, non-cash,
share-based compensation charges and investment income from affiliate. Adjusted OIBDA is one of the primary measures used by management
to evaluate our performance and to forecast future results but is not a financial measure
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.
We believe Adjusted OIBDA is useful for investors because it enables them to assess our performance
in a manner similar to the methods used by management, and provides a measure that can be used to
analyze, value and compare the companies in the cable television industry, which may have different
depreciation and amortization policies, as well as different non-cash, share-based
compensation programs. A limitation of Adjusted OIBDA, however, is that it excludes depreciation
and amortization, which represents the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and
intangible assets used in generating revenues in our business. Management utilizes a separate
process to budget, measure and evaluate capital expenditures. In addition, Adjusted OIBDA has the
limitation of not reflecting the effect of our non-cash, share-based
compensation charges and investment income from affiliate.
12
Adjusted OIBDA should not be regarded as an alternative to either operating income or net income
(loss) as an indicator of operating performance nor should it be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that operating
income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted OIBDA.

Revenues
Video revenues represent monthly subscription fees charged to customers for our core cable
television products and services (including basic, expanded basic and digital cable programming
services, wire maintenance, equipment rental and services to commercial establishments),
pay-per-view charges, installation, reconnection, and late payment fees, and other ancillary
revenues. Data revenues primarily represent monthly fees charged to customers, including commercial
establishments, for our data products and services and equipment rental fees. Franchise fees
charged to customers for payment to local franchising authorities are included in their
corresponding revenue category. Phone revenues represent monthly fees charged to customers.
Advertising revenues represent the sale of advertising time on various channels.
Revenues rose 7.4%, largely attributable to growth in our data and phone customers. Average total
monthly revenue per basic subscriber grew 12.3% to $76.72. RGUs grew 7.1% year-over-year and
average total monthly revenue per RGU grew 0.5% compared with the prior year period.
Video
revenues grew 1.1% due to higher service fees from our
advanced video products and services, such as DVRs and HDTV, and basic video rate increases,
offset in part by a lower number of basic subscribers. During the three months ended June 30,
2007, we lost 6,000 basic subscribers, compared to a loss of 6,200 basic subscribers during the
same period last year.
Data revenues rose 20.7%, primarily due to a 20.3% year-over-year increase in data customers.
Phone
revenues grew 262.5% largely due to a 241.2% increase in phone
customers. As of June 30, 2007, Mediacom Phone was marketed to
approximately
1.05 million of
our 1.36 million
estimated homes passed, and we expect to market the product to
approximately
1.1 million, or
81%, of our estimated homes passes by the
end of 2007.
14
Advertising revenues declined 5.6%, largely as a result of weaker local and national advertising
sales.
Costs and Expenses
Significant service costs and expenses are for: video programming; wages and salaries of technical
personnel who maintain our cable network, perform customer installation activities, and provide
customer support; our data and phone services, including payments to third-party providers and
costs associated with bandwidth connectivity and customer provisioning; and field operating costs,
including outside contractors, vehicle, utilities and pole rental expenses. Video programming
costs, which are generally paid on a per subscriber basis, represent our largest single expense
category and have historically increased due to both increases in the rates charged for existing
programming services and the introduction of new programming services to our customers. Video
programming costs are expected to continue to grow principally because of contractual unit rate
increases and the increasing demands of television broadcast station owners for retransmission
consent fees. As a consequence, it is expected that our video gross margins will decline as
increases in programming costs outpace growth in video revenues.
Service costs rose 9.8%, primarily due to customer growth in our phone and HSD services and
increases in programming expenses. Recurring expenses related to our phone and HSD services grew
50.2% commensurate with the significant increase of our phone and data customers. Programming
expense rose 6.3%, principally as a result of higher unit costs charged by our programming vendors,
offset in part by a lower number of basic subscribers. Service costs as a percentage of revenues
were 42.6% and 41.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Significantly
selling, general and administrative expenses include: wages and
salaries for our call centers, customer service and support and
administrative personnel; franchise fees and taxes; marketing; bad
debt; billing; advertising; and costs related to telecommunications
for our call centers and office administration.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 8.3%, principally due to higher office, bad debt,
employee and marketing expenses, offset mainly by lower advertising sales expenses. Office costs
increased by 19.5% primarily due to call center telecommunications charges. Bad debt
expenses were higher by 32.0%, primarily due to unusually low write-offs of uncollectible accounts
in the prior year period. Employee expenses increased by 8.1%, principally due to increased
headcount in our customer service employees. Marketing costs rose 13.4% largely due to product and
service advertising and mailing campaigns. Advertising sales expenses were lower by 14.5% mainly
due to the decline in advertising sales activity. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues were 18.3% and 18.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
We expect continued revenue growth in our advanced products and services. As a result, we expect
our service costs and selling, general and administrative expenses to increase.
Management fee expense reflects charges incurred under management arrangements with our parent,
MCC. Management fee expense increased 13.7%, reflecting higher overhead charges by MCC. As a
percentage of revenues, management fee expense was 1.8% and 1.7% for the three months ended June
30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Depreciation
and amortization rose 8.0% compared to the prior year period, due in
part to increased deployment of customer
premise equipment, offset in part by lower
spending on plant upgrade and rebuild.
Adjusted OIBDA
Adjusted
OIBDA increased by 4.6%, due to revenue growth, especially in data and phone, offset
by increases in related service costs and marketing expenses.
Operating Income
Operating income was essentially flat compared to the prior year period, with growth in Adjusted
OIBDA offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense.
15
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net, increased by 11.1%, primarily due to the expiration of certain interest rate hedging
agreements with favorable rates.
Gain on Derivatives, Net
We enter into interest rate exchange agreements, or interest rate swaps, with counterparties to
fix the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to reduce the potential volatility in
our interest expense that would otherwise result from changes in variable market interest rates. As
of June 30, 2007 we had interest rate swaps with an aggregate
principal amount of $400.0 million. The
changes in their mark-to-market values are derived from changes in market interest rates, the
decrease in their time to maturity and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. As a result of
the quarterly mark-to-market valuation of these interest rate swaps, we recorded a gain on
derivatives, net amounting to $3.9 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006, respectively.
Investment Income from Affiliate
Investment income from affiliate was $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This
amount represents the investment income on our $150.0 million preferred equity investment in
Mediacom Broadband LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of MCC.
Net Income (Loss)
As a result of the factors described above, we had net income for the three months ended June 30,
2007 of $2.6 million, compared to a net loss of $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30,
2006.

Revenues rose 6.9%, largely attributable to growth in our data and phone customers. Average total
monthly revenue per basic subscriber grew 11.1% to $74.16. RGUs grew 7.1% year-over-year and
average total monthly revenue per RGU was essentially flat compared with the prior year period.
Video
revenues grew 0.3% due to higher service fees from our advanced
video products and services, such as DVRs and HDTV, offset by a lower number of basic subscribers.
Our performance was impacted by our postponement until the second quarter of basic
video rate adjustments that are typically applied earlier in the year. During the six months ended
June 30, 2007, we lost 13,000 basic subscribers, compared to a loss of 6,000 basic subscribers
during the same period last year. We estimate that the loss of so
many basic subscribers in the first quarter of 2007 was
primarily due to the Sinclair dispute. Also, we bought and sold small cable systems (the cable
system transactions) during the quarter resulting in a net disposition of 3,300 basic subscribers.
17
Data revenues rose 20.2%, primarily due to a 20.3% year-over-year increase in data customers. The
growth reflected a net disposition of 1,900 data customers from the cable system transactions in
the first quarter.
Phone
revenues grew 323.4% largely due to a 241.2% increase in phone customers. As of June 30,
2007, Mediacom Phone was marketed to approximately 1.05 million of our 1.36 million estimated homes
passed, and we expect to market the product to approximately 81% of our estimated homes passed by
the end of 2007.
Advertising revenues increased 2.2%, largely as a result of stronger local advertising sales.
Costs and Expenses
Service costs rose 9.3%, primarily due to customer growth in our phone and HSD services and
increases in programming expenses. Recurring expenses related to our phone and HSD services grew
50.6% commensurate with the significant increase of our phone and data customers. Programming
expense rose 5.9%, principally as a result of higher unit costs charged by our programming vendors,
offset in part by a lower number of basic subscribers. Service costs as a percentage of revenues
were 42.9% and 41.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 8.7%, principally due to higher marketing, bad
debt and office expenses. Marketing costs rose 28.2% largely due to product and service advertising
and mailing campaigns. Bad debt expenses were higher by 38.2%, primarily due to unusually low
write-offs of uncollectible accounts in the prior year period. Office costs increased by 18.6%
principally due to call center telecommunications charges. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 18.6% and
18.2% for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
We expect continued revenue growth in our advanced products and services. As a result, we expect
our service costs and selling, general and administrative expenses to increase.
Management fee expense reflects charges incurred under management arrangements with our parent,
MCC. Management fee expense increased 11.7%, reflecting higher overhead charges by MCC. As a
percentage of revenues, management fee expense was 1.8% for each of the six months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006.
Depreciation
and amortization rose 4.8% compared to the prior year period, due in
part to increased deployment of customer
premise equipment, offset by lower spending on plant upgrade and rebuild.
Adjusted OIBDA
Adjusted
OIBDA rose 3.5%, principally due to revenue growth, especially in
data and phone, partially offset by increases in related service
costs and marketing expenses.
Operating Income
Operating income grew 1.3%, largely due to growth in Adjusted OIBDA, offset in part by higher
depreciation and amortization expense.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net, increased by 11.4%, primarily due to the expiration of certain interest rate hedging
agreements with favorable rates and, to a lesser extent, higher
market interest rates on variable rate debt.
Gain on Derivatives, Net
We enter into interest rate exchange agreements, or interest rate swaps, with counterparties to
fix the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to reduce the potential volatility in
our interest expense that would otherwise result from changes in variable market interest rates. As
of June 30, 2007 we had interest rate swaps with an aggregate
principal amount of $400.0 million. The
changes in their mark-to-market values are derived from changes in market interest rates, the
decrease in their time to maturity and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. As a result of
the quarterly mark-to-market valuation of these interest rate swaps, we recorded a gain on
derivatives, net amounting to $1.8 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007
and 2006, respectively.
18
Gain on Sale of Cable Systems
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we sold cable systems for $22.9 million and recorded a
gain on sale of $10.8 million.
Investment Income from Affiliate
Investment
income from affiliate was $9.0 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This
amount represents the investment income on our $150.0 million preferred equity investment in
Mediacom Broadband LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of MCC.
Net Income (Loss)
As a result of the factors described above, we had net income for the six months ended June 30,
2007 of $7.9 million, compared to a net loss of $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We have invested, and will continue to invest, in our network to enhance its reliability and
capacity, and in the further deployment of advanced broadband services. Our capital spending has
recently shifted from network upgrade investments to the deployment of advanced services. We also
may continue to make strategic acquisitions of cable systems. We have a high level of indebtedness
and incur significant amounts of interest expense each year. We believe that we will meet our debt
service, capital spending and other requirements through a combination of our net cash flows from
operating activities, borrowing availability under our bank credit facilities, and our ability to
secure future external financing.
As of June 30, 2007, our total debt was $1,513.8 million. Of this amount, $16.5 million matures
within the twelve months ending June 30, 2008. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we paid
cash interest of $62.5 million, net of capitalized interest. As of June 30, 2007, we had unused
revolving credit commitments of approximately $341.6 million, all of which could be borrowed and
used for general corporate purposes based on the terms and conditions of our debt arrangements.
For all periods through June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our
debt arrangements. Continued access to our credit facilities is subject to our remaining in
compliance with the covenants of these credit facilities, including covenants tied to our operating
performance. There are no covenants, events of default, borrowing conditions or other terms in our
credit facilities or our other debt arrangements that are based on changes in our credit ratings
assigned by any rating agency. We believe that we will not have any difficulty in the foreseeable
future complying with these covenants and that we will meet our current and long-term debt service,
capital spending, and other cash requirements through a combination of our net cash flows from
operating activities, borrowing availability under our bank credit facilities, and our ability to
secure future external financing. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain
sufficient future financing, or, if we were able to do so, that the
terms would be favorable to us. Our future access to debt financings and the cost of such
financings are affected by our credit ratings. Any future downgrade to our credit ratings could
increase the cost of debt and adversely impact our ability to raise additional funds.
Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $63.2 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007, as compared to $70.0 million for the comparable period last year. The change of $6.8
million is primarily due to the net change in operating assets and liabilities, offset in part by
higher interest expense.
19
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the net change in our operating assets and liabilities
was $12.7 million, primarily due to an increase in our accrued liabilities of $12.7 million and an
increase in deferred revenue of $2.0 million, offset by a decrease in our other non-current
liabilities of $0.8 million and an increase in our prepaid expenses and other assets of $0.7
million.
Investing Activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities were $33.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007, as compared to $52.0 million for the prior year period. Capital expenditures decreased $2.6
million to $49.4 million, primarily due to lower spending on cable plant upgrades, offset in part
by, higher spending on customer premise equipment. In addition, we received proceeds of $22.9
million from the sale of cable systems and spent $7.3 million to purchase a cable system.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows used in financing activities were $34.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007, largely due to a net reduction of debt. Net cash flows used in financing activities were $1.0
million for the comparable period in 2006, largely due to net bank borrowings, offset by a
distribution to our parent.
Other
We have entered into interest rate exchange agreements with counterparties, which expire from 2009
through 2010, to hedge $400.0 million of floating rate debt. These agreements have been accounted
for on a mark-to-market basis as of, and for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Our interest
rate exchange agreements are scheduled to expire in the amounts of $300.0 million and $100.0
million during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
As of June 30, 2007, approximately $18.1 million of letters of credit were issued to various
parties as collateral for our performance relating to insurance and franchise requirements.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as
previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. Periodically, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to doubtful accounts, long-lived assets, capitalized costs and accruals. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a
discussion of our critical accounting judgments and estimates that we believe require significant
judgment in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, please refer to our annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Inflation and Changing Prices
Our systems costs and expenses are subject to inflation and price fluctuations. Such changes in
costs and expenses can generally be passed through to subscribers. Programming costs have
historically increased at rates in excess of inflation and are expected to continue to do so. We
believe that under the Federal Communications Commissions existing cable rate regulations, we may
increase rates for cable television services to more than cover any increases in programming.
However, competitive conditions and other factors in the marketplace may limit our ability to
increase our rates.
