Insights
The financial results reported by Cable One, Inc. demonstrate a mixed performance for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2023. The decline in revenues by 3.2% for the quarter and 1.6% for the year, primarily due to decreases in residential video and voice revenues, may raise concerns about the company's ability to maintain growth in its traditional service areas. However, the increase in net income by 249.3% for the quarter and 14.2% for the year, along with a higher net profit margin, indicates improved profitability and cost management.
The company's focus on high-margin residential data and business services, which now comprise over 77% of all revenues, is a strategic move to offset declining segments. Moreover, the repayment of debt and the repurchase of shares reflect a strong balance sheet and a commitment to returning value to shareholders. The capital expenditure increase by 8.2% for the quarter, while year-end capital expenditures decreased by 10.4%, suggests a strategic reallocation of resources towards growth initiatives.
Investors should note the company's Adjusted EBITDA margin improvement, which suggests operational efficiency. However, the decline in cash flows from operating activities by 9.9% for the quarter and 10.1% for the year warrants attention to ensure that this does not become a trend that could impact liquidity in the future.
The telecommunications industry is experiencing a shift in consumer preferences, with a steady decline in traditional services like residential video and voice. Cable One's strategic emphasis on residential data services and business services aligns with industry trends towards higher demand for data and internet services. The reported sequential growth in residential high-speed data customers and the increase in residential data ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) by 2.7% for the quarter are positive indicators of the company's adaptability to market demands.
Despite the overall revenue decline, the company's ability to increase its net income significantly suggests effective cost control measures and possibly a favorable shift in the revenue mix towards higher-margin services. The company's liquidity position, with $190.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and the available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility, provide it with financial flexibility to navigate market uncertainties and invest in future growth opportunities.
From a legal perspective, the financial report's mention of a non-cash gain on fair value adjustment associated with the MBI Net Option is noteworthy. This gain significantly contributed to the net income for the quarter and year. It is essential for stakeholders to understand such non-operational factors that can impact reported earnings. The transparency in reporting these figures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures like Adjusted EBITDA, is in line with SEC requirements and provides investors with a clearer picture of the company's operational performance.
Additionally, the company's share repurchase program and dividend payments are subject to regulatory compliance and the remaining share repurchase authorization indicates an ongoing strategy to manage capital allocation effectively. The repayment of debt under the revolving credit facility also implies a prudent approach to financial management and legal obligations.

Additional Information Available on Website
The information in this press release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K"), 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
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) plus interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, severance and contract termination costs, (gain) loss on deferred compensation, acquisition-related costs, (gain) loss on asset sales and disposals, system conversion costs, (gain) loss on sales of businesses, 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, 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, capital expenditures as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures are also significant performance measures that have been 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) |
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. |
(2) |
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. |
