Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Note 2 : Recent Accounting Pronouncements Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. The updated accounting guidance i s effective for us as of January 1, 2018. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and our method of adoption. Consolidations In February 2015, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to consolidation under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) and voting interest entity models. The updated accounting guidanc e modifies the consolidation guidance for VIEs, limited partnerships and similar legal entities. We have adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2016 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Financial A ssets and Financ ial Liabilities In January 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to the recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. The updated accounting guidance, among other things, requires that all nonconsolidated equit y investments, except those accounted for under the equity method, be measured at fair value and that the changes in fair value be recognized in net income. The updated guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2018. The updated accounting guidance req uires a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings when the guidance is adopted with certain exceptions. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Leases In February 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to leases. The updated accounting guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the excepti on of short-term leases. For a lessee, the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease do not significantly change from previous guidance . For a lessor, the accounting applied is also largely unchanged from pre vious guidance. The updated guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The updated accounting guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the begi nning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Share-Based Compensation In March 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance that affects several aspects of the accounting for share-based compensation. The most significant change for us relates to the presentation of the income and withholding tax consequences of share-based compensation in our consolidated financial statements. Among the changes, the updated guidance requires that the excess income tax benefits or deficiencies that arise whe n the tax consequences of share- based compensation differ from amounts previously recognized in th e statement of income be recognized as income tax benefit or expense in the statement of income rather than as additional paid-in capital in the balance sheet. The guidance also states that excess income tax benefits should not be presented separately from other income taxes in the statement of cash flow s and, thus, should be classified as an operating activity rather than a financing activity as they are under the current guidance. In addition, the updated guidance requires when an employer withholds share s upon exercise of options or the vesting of restricted stock for the purpose of meeting withholding tax requirements, that the cash paid for withholding taxes be classified as a financing activity. We currently record these amounts within operating activi ties. The updated guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The updated guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption, with certain items that are allowed to be applied retrospectively and certa in other items that are only to be applied prospectively in the period of adoption. We are currently in the process of determining our method of adoption of this updated accounting guidance. If we had adopted the provisions of the updated guidance as of Ja nuary 1, 20 16, it would have increased net income attributable to Comcast Corporation by $48 million and $159 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. In addition, the updated guidance would have increased net cash provided b y operating activities and decrease d net cash provided by (used in) financing activities by $ 411 million for the six months ended June 3 0 , 2016. The most significant impact o f implementing the new guidance is expected to occur in the first quarter of each year as a result of the vesting of restricted stock awards, which primarily occurs in March. |

The updated guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption, with certain items that are allowed to be applied retrospectively and certain other items that are only to be applied prospectively in the period of adoption. As a limited liability company, we do not expect the updated accounting guidance related to the excess income tax benefits or deficiencies to be recognized in the sta tement of income to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements. In addition, we do not expect the updated accounting guidance to have a material impact on our statement of cash flows. |

Following the close of the transaction, we continue to hold an investment in The Weather Channel cable network through a new holding company. As a result of the sale of our investment, we recognized a pretax gain for the six months ended June 30, 2016 of $108 million in o ther income (expense), net. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, The Weather Channel recorded an impairment charge related to goodwill. We recorded an expense of $252 million that represents NBCUniversal’s proportionate share of this impairment ch arge in equity in net income (losses) of investees, net in our condensed consolidated statement of income. Atairos In 2015, we entered into an agreement to establish Atairos Group, Inc. (“ Atairos ”), a strategic company focused on investing in and operating companies in a range of industries and business sectors, both domestically and internationally . The agreement became effective as of January 1, 2016. Atairos has a term of up to 12 years and is controlled by management companies led by our former CFO thro ugh interests that carry all of the voting rights. We are the only investor other than our former CFO and the other management company employees. We have committed to fund up to $4 billion in the aggregate at any one time in Atairos , subject to certain off sets, and $40 million annually to fund a management fee, subject to certain adjustments, while the management company investors have committed to fund up to $100 million (with at least $40 million to be funded by our former CFO, subject to his continued ro le with Atairos ). Our economic interests do not carry voting rights and obligate us to absorb approximately 99% of any losses and provide us the right to receive approximately 86.5% of any residual returns in Atairos , in either case on a cumulative basis. We have concluded that Atairos is a VIE, that we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Atairos as we have no voting rights and only certain consent rights, and that we are not a related pa rty with our former CFO or the management companies. We therefore do not consolidate Atairos and account for this investment as an equity method investment. There are no other liquidity arrangements, guarantees, or other financial commitments between Comca st and Atairos , and therefore our maximum risk of financial loss is our investment balance and remaining unfunded capital commitment. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 , we made capital contributions totaling $ 429 million to Atairos . Hulu For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , we recognized our proportionate share of losses of $ 40 million and $ 65 million, respectively, related to our investment in Hulu, LLC (“Hulu”) . For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , we recognized our proportionate share of losses of $ 13 million and $ 24 million, res pectively, related to our investment in Hulu. Cost Method AirTouch We hold two series of preferred stock of Verizon Americas, Inc., formerly known as AirTouch Communications, Inc. (“ AirTouch ”), a subsidiary of Verizon Communications Inc., which are redeemable in April 2020. As of June 30, 2016 , the estimated fair value of the AirTouch preferred stock and the estimated fair value of the associated liability related to the redeemable subsidiary preferred shares issued by one of our consolidated subsidiaries were each $ 1.7 billion. The estimated fair values are based on Level 2 inputs that use pricing models whose inputs are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |

Long-Term Debt | Note 8: Long-Term Debt As of June 30, 2016 , our debt had a carrying value of $ 55.6 billion and an estimated fair value of $ 64.4 billion. The estimated fair value of our publicly traded debt is primarily based on Level 1 inputs that use quoted market values for the debt. The estimated fair value of debt for which there are no quoted market prices is based on Level 2 inputs that use interest rates available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Debt Borrowings and Repayments In July 2016, we issued $700 million aggregate principal amount of 1.625% senior notes due 2022, $1.4 billion aggregate principal amount o f 2.35% senior notes due 2027, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.20% senior notes due 2036 and $1.4 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.40% senior notes due 2046.

In May 2016, we issued $1.43 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.05% senior notes due 2046. In February and March 2016, we issued $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.75% senior notes due 2023 and $2.2 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.15% senior notes due 2026. In June 2016, we repaid at maturity $750 million aggregate principal amount of 4.95% senior notes due 2016.

Revolving Credit Facilities In May 2016, we entered into a new $ 7 billion revolving credit facility due 2021 with a syndicate of banks (“Comcast revolving credit facility”) that may be used for general corporate purposes. We may increase the commitment under the Comcast revolving credit facility up to a total of $10 billion, as well as extend the expiration date to a date no later than 2023, subject to approval of the lenders. In addition, NBCUniversal Enterprise entered into a new $ 1.5 billion revolving credit facility due 2021 with a syndicate of banks (“NBCUniversal Enterprise revolving credit facility”) that may be used for general corporate purposes . We may increase the commitment under the NBCUniversal Enterprise revolving credit facility up to a total of $2 billion, as well as extend the expiration date to a date no late r than 2023, subject to approval of the lenders. The new revolving credit facilities replaced Comcast’s $6.25 billion and NBCUniversal Enterprise’s $1.35 billion revolving credit facilities, which were termin ated in connection with the execution of the new revolving credit facilities. The interest rates on the new revolving credit facilities consist of a base rate plus a borrowing margin that is determined based on Comcast’s credit rating. As of June 30, 2016, the borrowing margin for borrowings based on the London Interbank Offered Rate was 1.00%. The terms of the new revolving credit facilities’ financial covenants and guarantees are substantially the same as those under the prior revolving credit facilities.

Fair Value Measurements | Note 9: Fair Value Measurements The accounting guidance related to financial assets and financial liabilities (“financial instruments”) establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). Level 1 consists of financial instruments whose values are based on quoted market prices for identical financial instruments in an active market. Level 2 consists of financi al instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models use inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 consists of financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models that use sig nificant inputs that are primarily unobservable, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. Our financial instruments th at are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the table below.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies Insurance Obligations We recorded an operating expense of $116 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and eliminated substantially all of our liabilities related to certain insurance obligations, which are disclosed in Note 12 of our consolidated financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Contingencies We are a defendant in several unrelated lawsuits claiming infringement of various patents relating to various aspects of our businesses. In certain of these c ases other industry participants are also defendants, and also in certain of these cases we expect that any potential liability would be in part or in whole the responsibility of our equipment and technology vendors under applicable contractual indemnifica tion provisions. We are also subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. While the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such actions is not expected to materially affect our results of operation s, cash flows or financial position, any litigation resulting from any such legal proceedings or claims could be time-consuming and injure our reputation. |

For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, 2.8% of Cable Communications segment revenue was derived from franchise and other regulatory fees. (b ) Beginning in the first quart er of 2016, certain operations and b usinesses, including several strategic business initiatives , that were previously presented in Corporate and Other are now presented in our Cable Communications segment to reflect a change in our management reporting presentation. For segment reporting pur poses, we have adjusted all periods presented to reflect this change. (c) The revenue and operating costs and expenses associated with our broadcast of the 2015 Super Bowl were reported in our Broadcast Television segment. (d) Beginning in the fourth quart er of 2015, we changed our method of accounting for a contractual obligation that involves an interest in the revenue of certain theme parks. As a result of the change, amounts payable based on current period revenue are presented in operating costs and ex penses. Amounts paid through the third quarter of 2015 were included in other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of income. For segment reporting purposes, we have adjusted periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2015 to reflect management reporting presentation for this expense on a consistent basis for all periods in the Theme Parks segment and total NBCUniversal, which resulted in a corresponding offsetting adjustment in Eliminations to reconcile to consolidated totals. (e) NBCUnive rsal Headquarters and Other activities include costs associated with overhead, personnel costs and headquarter initiatives. (f) Included in Eliminations are transactions that our segments enter into with one another. The most common types of transactions a re the following: • our Cable Networks segment generates revenue by selling programming to our Cable Communications segment, which represents a substantial majority of the revenue elimination amount • our Broadcast Television segment generates revenue from the fees received under retransmission consent agreements with our Cable Communications segment • our Cable Communications segment generates revenue by selling advertising and by selling the use of satellite feeds to our Cable Networks segment • our Filme d Entertainment and Broadcast Television segments generate revenue by licensing content to our Cable Networks segment (g) No single customer accounted for a significant amount of revenue in any period. (h) We use operating income (loss) before depreciatio n and amortization, excluding impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of assets, if any, as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of noncash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of certain of our businesses and from intangible assets recognized in business combinations. Additionally, it is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activit ies. We use this measure to evaluate our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of our operating segments and to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments. It is also a significant performance measure in our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with that of other companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Comcast Corporation, net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of performance or liquidity we have reported in accordance with GAAP. |

(b) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2015, we changed our method of accounting for a contractual obligation that involves an interest in the revenue of certain theme parks. As a result of the change, amounts payable ba sed on current period revenue are presented in operating costs and expenses. Amounts paid through the third quarter of 2015 were included in othe r income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of income. For segment reporting purposes, we have adjusted periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2015 to reflect management reporting presentation for this expense on a consistent basis for all period s in the Theme Parks segment, which resulted in a corresponding offsetting adjustment in Eliminations to reconcile to consolidated totals . (c) Headquarters and Other activities include costs associated with overhead, personnel costs and headquarter initiatives . (d) Included in Eliminations are transactions that our segments enter into with one another, which consist primarily of the licensing of film and television content from our Filmed Entertainment and Broadcast Television segments to our Cable Networks segment . (e) No single customer accounted for a significant amount of revenue in any period. (f) We use operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, excluding impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of as sets, if any, as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of noncash amortization expense that results from intangible assets recognized in business combinations. Additionally, it is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. We use this measure to evaluate our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of our operating segments and to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments. It is also a significant performance measure in our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with that of other companies in our industries, altho ugh our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to NBCUniversal, net cash provided by operating activ ities, or other measures of performance or liquidity we have reported in accordance with GAAP. |
