NEW YORK, April 30, 2014 – Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:TWX) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bewkes said: “We are off to a very strong start in 2014, with results that demonstrate both the returns we can achieve on our investments in great storytelling and the growth potential of our businesses. Excluding Time Inc., which we expect to spin off as an independent publicly-traded company this quarter, we grew first quarter Revenues by 10%, Adjusted Operating Income by 12%, and Adjusted EPS by 26%. In the first quarter, Warner Bros. picked up where it left off after a record-breaking year in 2013, withThe LEGO Movielaunching yet another franchise for us and leading all releases at the domestic box office. Combined with its promising slate of movies for the rest of the year and strong lineup of TV shows to be unveiled at the upfronts, Warner Bros. is positioned to have another excellent year in 2014. Home Box Office continues to be red hot, led by the debut ofTrue Detective,the most-watched freshman series in HBO’s history. And the Season 4 premiere ofGame of Thrones on April 6 drew HBO’s largest audience sinceThe Sopranos finale. Turner also made history by bringing the NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Four to cable for the first time ever. The success of the NCAA Tournament also helped TBS maintain its position as ad-supported cable’s #1 network in primetime among adults 18-34 and 18-49. It also showcased the importance and vibrancy of our TV Everywhere initiatives, with a more than 40% increase in streams for our March Madness Live service over last year. Another standout at Turner was Adult Swim, which again finished the quarter as the #1 ad-supported cable network in total day for Adults 18-34. And CNN reaffirmed that it is the place the world goes for authoritative coverage during major news events, with delivery in its key demographic up over 50% in March. Further demonstrating our commitment to shareholder returns, during the quarter we returned almost $1.3 billion to our shareholders in the form of share buybacks and dividends.”

Presented below is a discussion of the performance of Time Warner’s segments for the first quarter of 2014. Unless otherwise noted, the dollar amounts in parentheses represent year-over-year changes.
TURNER
Revenuesrose 5% ($123 million) to $2.6 billion, benefiting from growth of 7% ($85 million) in Subscription revenues and 5% ($51 million) in Advertising revenues, partially offset by a decline of 15% ($17 million) in Content revenues. The increase in Subscription revenues was primarily due to higher domestic rates and international growth, partially offset by the negative effect of foreign currency exchange rates. Advertising revenues benefited from growth at Turner’s domestic and international networks offset in part by the negative effect of foreign currency exchange rates. The increase in domestic networks was mainly due to the 2014 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship tournament (the “NCAA Tournament”), including the airing of additional games, and higher pricing, partially offset by lower audience delivery. Content revenues declined due to the timing of subscription video on demand availabilities.
Adjusted Operating Incomeincreased 3% ($24 million) to $895 million, reflecting higher revenues, partly offset by higher expenses, including programming costs. Programming costs grew 9%, primarily reflecting higher costs associated with the NCAA Tournament and an increase in original programming costs.
Operating Income increased 6% ($49 million) to $900 million. The current year quarter included a $13 million gain related to the sale of Zite, Inc., a news content aggregation and recommendation platform. The prior year quarter included $20 million of charges related to Turner’s international operations.
The NCAA Tournament delivered the four most-viewed college basketball games ever on a cable television network. In addition, March Madness Live delivered a 42% increase in live video streams, and cross platform unique users grew 12% compared to last year. During the first quarter of 2014, TBS ranked as ad-supported cable’s #1 primetime network among adults 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 and claimed three of the top 10 ad-supported cable original comedy series.The Big Bang Theory on TBS remained the #1 comedy on ad-supported cable among total viewers and adults 18-49 for the ninth consecutive quarter. The first quarter was Adult Swim’s second most-watched first quarter in its history for adults 18-34 and 18-49, and it ranked #1 in total day on ad-supported cable among key adult and male demographics. In April 2014,Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknownon CNN and The Story of Film: An Odyssey on TCM both received George Foster Peabody Awards.
HOME BOX OFFICE
Revenues grew 9% ($111 million) to $1.3 billion, reflecting increases of 8% ($85 million) in Subscription revenues and 13% ($24 million) in Content revenues. Subscription revenues increased mainly from higher domestic rates and the consolidation of HBO Asia and HBO South Asia (collectively, “HBO Asia”) and HBO Nordic. The increase in Content revenues was primarily due to higher home video revenues, which benefited from sales ofGame of Thrones: The Complete Third Season.
Adjusted Operating Incomerose 11% ($47 million) to $464 million, reflecting higher revenues, partly offset by higher programming and distribution costs. Programming costs grew 8% mainly due to the consolidation of HBO Asia and HBO Nordic. Distribution costs increased primarily due to the costs associated with increased home video revenues.
Operating Income increased 11% ($47 million) to $464 million.
The fourth season premiere ofGame of Thrones reached a gross audience of over 17 million viewers, well above last season’s average of 14.4 million viewers, making it HBO’s most watched program sinceThe Sopranos finale in 2007.True Detectiveaveraged a gross audience of 11.9 million viewers per episode
4
across all platforms and delivered the largest audience for an HBO original series in its first season. In April 2014, HBO Documentary Films’Life According to Sam,Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of GodandSix by Sondheim each received a George Foster Peabody Award.
WARNER BROS.
Revenuesincreased 14% ($385 million) to $3.1 billion, mainly due to a stronger theatrical slate, led byThe LEGO Movie and300: Rise of an Empire. Revenues also benefited from an increase in videogames revenues, growth in initial telecast revenues and higher international television licensing revenues. The increase was partially offset by lower physical home video revenues due to the timing of key releases.
Adjusted Operating Income rose 43% ($115 million) to $380 million, primarily due to higher revenues, partially offset by higher associated film costs and higher theatrical valuation adjustments.
Operating Income increased 40% ($106 million) to $369 million.
Through April 27,The LEGO Movieand300: Rise of an Empire grossed approximately $450 million and $330 million, respectively, at the worldwide box office. In March, Warner Bros.’ films received 10 Academy Awards, including seven forGravity, the most of any studio.
TIME INC.
Revenues increased 1% ($8 million) to $745 million as a result of the acquisition of Time Inc. Affluent Media Group (formerly American Express Publishing Corporation) (“AMG”) in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the benefit from certain weekly titles having one additional issue. The increase reflects growth of 5% ($12 million) in Subscription revenues, partially offset by a decrease of 11% ($8 million) in Other revenues due to lower revenues from Synapse. Advertising revenues were flat in the quarter as the inclusion of AMG’s revenues was offset by declines in non-AMG domestic magazine advertising. Excluding the impact of acquiring AMG, Revenues would have decreased 5%, Subscription revenues would have been flat and Advertising and Other revenues would have decreased 7% and 16%, respectively.
Adjusted Operating Loss of $94 million represented a decline of $85 million compared to the year-ago quarter’s Adjusted Operating Loss of $9 million, mainly resulting from higher restructuring and severance charges and declines at certain non-AMG titles. The current year quarter included $115 million of restructuring and severance charges compared to $53 million in the prior year quarter.
Operating Loss of $120 million represented a decline of $111 million compared to the year-ago quarter’s Operating Loss of $9 million. The current year quarter included $26 million of fixed asset impairments primarily related to a building held for sale.
During the quarter, Time Inc. maintained its leading share of overall domestic magazine advertising with 25.6%, up from 24.5% in the first quarter of 2013 (Publishers Information Bureau data). The share information for the first quarter of 2013 reflects the inclusion of AMG and a title published on behalf of American Express Company.
CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME AND PER SHARE RESULTS
Company Results Including Time Inc.
Adjusted EPS was $0.91 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $0.76 in last year’s first quarter. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects higher Adjusted Operating Income and fewer shares outstanding.
5
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company reported Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner common shareholders of $1.3 billion, or $1.42 per diluted common share. This compares to Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner common shareholders in the first quarter of 2013 of $754 million, or $0.79 per diluted common share.
For the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, the Company reported Net Income of $1.3 billion and $754 million, respectively.
Company Results Excluding Time Inc.
Adjusted EPS was $0.97 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $0.77 in last year’s first quarter. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects higher Adjusted Operating Income and fewer shares outstanding.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company excluding Time Inc. had Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner common shareholders of $1.4 billion, or $1.50 per diluted common share. This compares to Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner common shareholders in the first quarter of 2013 of $764 million, or $0.80 per diluted common share.
For the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, the Company excluding Time Inc. had Net Income of $1.4 billion and $764 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 (other than deferred gains on sale-leasebacks); gains and losses recognized in connection with pension and other postretirement benefit plan curtailments or settlements; 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 Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders is Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets and investments; gains and losses on operating assets (other than deferred gains on sale-leasebacks), liabilities and investments; gains and losses recognized in connection with pension and other postretirement benefit plan curtailments or settlements; 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 Income per Common Share from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding the above items.
Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations 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.
6
Some limitations of Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Operating Income margin, Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations 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 defined as Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing 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, contingent consideration payments made in connection with acquisitions, and excess tax benefits from equity instruments, 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.
In light of the pending legal and structural separation of Time Inc. from Time Warner (the “Time Separation”), the Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures described above, but further excluding Time Inc. to evaluate the non-publishing businesses. An additional limitation of the measures that exclude the impact of Time Inc. is that they do not reflect the operating results of all the Company’s businesses. The Company expects to complete the Time Separation during the second quarter of 2014.
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 Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow and each of these non-GAAP financial measures excluding Time Inc. should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s Operating Income (Loss), Income from Continuing Operations attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Diluted Income per Common Share from Continuing Operations and various cash flow measures (e.g., Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing Operations), as well as other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
