NEW YORK, May 2, 2012 – Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:TWX) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2012.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bewkes said: “We’re off to a great start to the year, and we’re benefiting from strong momentum for our content across our businesses. In the quarter, we saw impressive viewership gains at many of Turner’s networks, including TBS ranking as the #1 network on cable among its key demographics. HBO programming is getting even stronger, with fantastic ratings for the second season ofGame of Thrones and great critical and popular acclaim for new series likeVEEP andGirls. Warner Bros. is having a terrific 2011-2012 TV season, with excellent performance from returning shows likeThe Big Bang Theory andTwo and a Half Men as well as new breakout hits like2 Broke Girls andPerson of Interest, which positions it extremely well for the upcoming season. And Warner Bros. plans to follow its film successes from the first quarter with highly-anticipated releases over the course of the year, including Tim Burton’sDark Shadows, Christopher Nolan’sThe Dark Knight Rises, and the first installment of Peter Jackson’sThe Hobbit. Reflecting our confidence in our competitive position and growth prospects, we’ve repurchased almost $900 million of our stock so far this year.”
Company Results
Revenues increased 4% from the year-ago quarter to $7.0 billion, reflecting growth at the Film and TV Entertainment1 and Networks segments. Adjusted Operating Income rose 6% to $1.4 billion, also due to increases at the Film and TV Entertainment and Networks segments. Adjusted Operating Income margins were 19% in the first quarter of both 2012 and 2011. Operating Income decreased 2% to $1.2 billion, while Operating Income margin was 18% in 2012 compared to 19% in the prior year first quarter.
In the first quarter, the Company posted Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Common Share (“Adjusted EPS”) of $0.67 versus $0.58 for the year-ago quarter. Diluted Income per Common Share was $0.59 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $0.59 for last year’s first quarter.
For the first three months of 2012, Cash Provided by Operations reached $416 million and Free Cash Flow totaled $318 million. As of March 31, 2012, Net Debt was $16.6 billion, up from $16.0 billion at the end of 2011, due to share repurchases and dividends, offset by the generation of Free Cash Flow.
1Effective for the first quarter of 2012, Time Warner changed the name of its Filmed Entertainment reportable segment to Film and TV Entertainment. This change did not affect the composition of the segment; accordingly, all prior period financial information related to this reportable segment was unaffected.

Presented below is a discussion of the performance of Time Warner’s segments for the first quarter of 2012. Unless otherwise noted, the dollar amounts in parentheses represent year-over-year changes.
NETWORKS (Turner Broadcasting and HBO)
Revenuesincreased 3% ($106 million) to $3.6 billion, with increases of 5% ($99 million) in Subscription revenues and 6% ($64 million) in Advertising revenues, partly offset by a decline of 18% ($66 million) in Content revenues. Subscription revenues benefitted primarily from higher domestic rates. The increase in Advertising revenues was driven by strong pricing and the 2012 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship events (the “NCAA Tournament”), due in part to the timing of games. Content revenues declined due mainly to lower sales of HBO’s original programming, which included a domestic cable sale ofSex and the Cityin the prior year quarter.
Adjusted Operating Incomegrew 3% ($33 million) to $1.2 billion, reflecting higher revenues, partly offset by increased expenses, including higher programming costs. Programming costs grew 6%, due primarily to higher originals and sports programming costs, offset partially by lower acquired programming costs. The increase in sports programming costs was due in part to the timing of NCAA Tournament games. Programming costs also included a $35 million impairment related to the cancellation of the HBO original seriesLuck.Operating Incomedeclined 2% ($19 million) to $1.1 billion. The current year period included a $58 million charge related to Turner’s decision to shut down its general entertainment network in India.
TBS was ad-supported cable’s #1 network with adults 18-34 and adults 18-49 in primetime in the first quarter of 2012.The Big Bang Theory on TBS, which averaged more than 3 million viewers, ranked as ad-supported cable’s top comedy series of the quarter in total day delivery among all key adult demographics. Adult Swim ranked #1 among ad-supported cable networks for key adult and male viewers in total day delivery in the quarter. TNT’s 2011/2012 NBA regular-season coverage was up among viewers and households for the fifth straight year and was the highest-rated in the network’s 28-year history with the league. CNN received three George Foster Peabody Awards in April 2012 for its distinguished news coverage.
HBO’sGame of Thrones has been the most watched drama on cable for the first four weeks of its second season and is averaging a gross audience of 11.1 million viewers per episode, 20% higher than last season. HBO earned three George Foster Peabody Awards in April 2012, including awards forGame of ThronesandTreme. In the first quarter, HBO launched HBO GO, its authenticated online video service, on Microsoft’s Xbox 360.
FILM AND TV ENTERTAINMENT (Warner Bros.)
Revenuesincreased 7% ($180 million) to $2.8 billion, due mainly to a stronger theatrical slate, higher television licensing revenues and the subscription video-on-demand availability of a television series. The increase in television licensing revenues was due primarily to higher initial telecast fees and the timing of deliveries. These increases were partly offset by lower home entertainment revenues due mainly to lower revenues from prior period releases.
Adjusted Operating Incomerose 39% ($60 million) to $215 million, due primarily to higher revenues, offset partially by increased film costs.Operating Income grew 35% ($56 million) to $214 million.
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadowsgrossed nearly $535 million in worldwide box office through April 30, 2012, surpassing the worldwide box office for the first film in the franchise.Journey 2: The Mysterious Island grossed more than $320 million worldwide through April 30, 2012, also outpacing its predecessor. On April 16, 2012, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., in partnership with six Hollywood studios, including Warner Bros., launched the first in-store Disc-to-Digital service, which gives consumers the ability to obtain a digital copy of a previously purchased DVD or Blu-ray Disc.
4
PUBLISHING (Time Inc.)
Revenuesdeclined 3% ($25 million) to $773 million, reflecting declines of 5% ($19 million) in Advertising revenues and 2% ($6 million) in Subscription revenues. Advertising revenues decreased due to lower domestic magazine advertising revenues. The decrease in Subscription revenues was due primarily to lower domestic and international newsstand revenues, offset in part by higher domestic subscription sales.
Adjusted Operating Incomedecreased 38% ($24 million) to $39 million, primarily reflecting the decline in domestic magazine advertising revenues.Operating Lossof $4 million represented a decline of $67 million compared to the year-ago quarter’s Operating Income of $63 million, resulting in part from a $42 million loss related to the sale of the school fundraising business, QSP, which occurred in the first quarter of 2012.
During the quarter, Time Inc. maintained its leading share of overall domestic magazine advertising with 21.8% (Publishers Information Bureau data).
CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME AND PER SHARE RESULTS
Adjusted EPS was $0.67 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $0.58 in last year’s first quarter. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflected higher Adjusted Operating Income and fewer shares outstanding.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company reported Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. shareholders of $583 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share. This compares to Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. shareholders in 2011’s first quarter of $653 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share.
For the first quarter of 2012 and 2011, the Company reported Net Income of $581 million and $651 million, respectively.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Company utilizes Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted Operating Income margin, among other measures, to evaluate the performance of its businesses. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is Operating Income (Loss) excluding the impact of noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets; gains and losses on operating assets; gains and losses recognized in connection with pension plan curtailments, settlements or termination benefits; external costs related to mergers, acquisitions or dispositions, as well as contingent consideration related to such transactions, to the extent such costs are expensed; and amounts related to securities litigation and government investigations. Adjusted Operating Income margin is defined as Adjusted Operating Income divided by Revenues. These measures are considered important indicators of the operational strength of the Company’s businesses.
Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders is Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets and investments; gains and losses on operating assets, liabilities and investments; gains and losses recognized in connection with pension plan curtailments, settlements or termination benefits; external costs related to mergers, acquisitions, investments or dispositions, as well as contingent consideration related to such transactions, to the extent such costs are expensed; amounts related to securities litigation and government investigations; and amounts attributable to businesses classified as discontinued operations, as well as the impact of taxes and noncontrolling interests on the above items. Similarly, Adjusted EPS is Diluted Net Income per Common Share attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding the above items.
5
Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders and Adjusted EPS are considered important indicators of the operational strength of the Company’s businesses as these measures eliminate amounts that do not reflect the fundamental performance of the Company’s businesses. The Company utilizes Adjusted EPS, among other measures, to evaluate the performance of its businesses both on an absolute basis and relative to its peers and the broader market. Many investors also use an adjusted EPS measure as a common basis for comparing the performance of different companies. Some limitations of Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Operating Income margin, Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders and Adjusted EPS are that they do not reflect certain charges that affect the operating results of the Company’s businesses and they involve judgment as to whether items affect fundamental operating performance.
Free Cash Flow is Cash Provided by Operations plus payments related to securities litigation and government investigations (net of any insurance recoveries), external costs related to mergers, acquisitions, investments or dispositions, to the extent such costs are expensed, and excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options, less capital expenditures, principal payments on capital leases and partnership distributions, if any. The Company uses Free Cash Flow to evaluate its businesses and this measure is considered an important indicator of the Company’s liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt, make strategic investments, pay dividends to common shareholders and repurchase stock. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect payments made in connection with securities litigation and government investigations, which reduce liquidity.
A general limitation of these measures is that they are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation and excluded items. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s Operating Income (Loss), Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share and various cash flow measures (e.g., Cash Provided by Operations), as well as other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
