UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

On January 18, 2017, Cable One, Inc. (referred to as “the Company,” “Cable One,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar terms) announced that the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire RBI Holding LLC (“NewWave”) from funds affiliated with GTCR LLC, a private equity firm based in Chicago. NewWave was a cable operator providing data, video and voice services to residential and business customers throughout non-urban areas of Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas. Cable One’s acquisition of NewWave (the “Acquisition”) was completed on May 1, 2017 (the “Acquisition Date”). The Company paid a purchase price of $741.0 million in cash, on a debt-free basis and subject to customary post-closing adjustments.

In conjunction with the Acquisition, the Company amended its existing credit agreement and incurred $750 million of senior secured loans which were used to finance the Acquisition, pay off the Company’s existing term loan and pay related fees and expenses. The new term loans consist of a $250 million term “A” loan maturing in five years (“Term Loan A”) and a $500 million term “B” loan maturing in seven years (“Term Loan B”), which are guaranteed by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors. The interest margins applicable to the term loans are, at the Company’s option, equal to either a London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a base rate, plus an applicable margin equal to, (a) with respect to Term Loan A, a percentage ranging from 2.25% to 1.50% for LIBOR loans and 1.25% to 0.50% for base rate loans, determined on a quarterly basis based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio and (b) with respect to Term Loan B, a percentage of 2.25% for LIBOR loans and 1.25% for base rate loans. Term Loan A amortizes quarterly at a rate of 2.5% of the original principal amount per year for the first year after funding, 5.0% for the second year after funding, 7.5% for the third year after funding and 10.0% for the fourth and fifth years after funding, with the balance due upon maturity. Term Loan B amortizes quarterly at a rate of 1.0% of the original principal amount per year, with the balance due upon maturity.

The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information and related notes present the historical combined financial information of Cable One and NewWave after giving effect to the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information gives effect to the Acquisition based on the assumptions, reclassifications and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined financial information. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information also gives effect to the transactions undertaken to finance the Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 2016. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 is presented as if the Acquisition and the financing transactions had occurred on January 1, 2016. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to the financing and pro forma adjustments that are (1) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.

The determination and provisional allocation of the purchase consideration used in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information are based upon provisional estimates, which are subject to change during the measurement period (up to one year from the Acquisition Date) as we finalize the valuations of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is provided for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of or intended to represent the results that would have been achieved had the Acquisition and the financing transactions been consummated as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. The actual results reported by the combined company in periods following the Acquisition may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information for a number of reasons, including cost saving synergies from operating efficiencies and the effect of the incremental costs incurred to integrate the two companies.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2017 and the historical financial statements of NewWave as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included as Exhibit 99.1.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMACOMBINEDFINANCIALINFORMATION

1. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is based on Cable One’s and NewWave’s historical consolidated financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the Acquisition and the debt transactions necessary to finance the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 gives effect to the Acquisition and the financing transactions as if they had occurred on December 31, 2016. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 gives effect to the Acquisition and the financing transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2016.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the pro forma combined financial information to give effect to the financing and pro forma adjustments that are (1) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the pro forma combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.

We have accounted for the Acquisition in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”). In accordance with ASC 805, we use our best estimates and assumptions to assign fair value to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition Date. Goodwill as of the Acquisition Date is measured as the excess of purchase price consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The pro forma adjustments described below were developed based on Cable One management's assumptions and estimates, including assumptions relating to the consideration paid and the allocation thereof to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from NewWave based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The preliminary estimates of fair values of consideration transferred and assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the Acquisition Date. We believe that information available provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed but we are waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values. Thus, the preliminary measurements of fair value set forth herein are subject to change. Such changes could be significant. We expect to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable but no later than one-year from the Acquisition Date.

2. Purchase Price Consideration and Provisional Allocation

The total amount of consideration paid by Cable One to purchase NewWave was approximately $741.0 million in cash, without giving effect to the related transaction fees and expenses, which are expensed as incurred. Cable One funded the Acquisition with available cash on hand and proceeds from $750 million of term loans incurred in conjunction with the Acquisition.

⁽¹⁾ These costs are not presented in the pro forma combined statement of operations because they are nonrecurring in nature and will not have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of the combined company going forward.

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations

The financing adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations are as follows:

(c) Financing adjustment reflects the increase to interest expense resulting from interest on the portion of the incremental term loans used to finance the Acquisition and the amortization of related debt issuance costs, partially offset by the elimination of interest on financing repaid in connection with the Acquisition, as follows (in thousands):

	Year ended December 31, 2016
Interest expense on incremental term loans(1)	$	22,516
Amortization of debt issuance costs related to incremental term loans		2,228

Financing adjustment toInterest expense	$	3,428

⁽¹⁾ Calculated per the terms of the amended and restated credit agreement, under the LIBOR option, and the LIBOR of 1.30% in effect as of June 30, 2017. The interest rate spread applicable to $156.25 million of Term Loan A ($250 million less $93.75 million payoff of the existing term loan) of 1.75% was determined based on the estimated leverage ratio of the combined company at June 30, 2017. For purposes of calculating interest expense directly related to the Acquisition, we assumed proceeds from the $500 million Term Loan B (which would have had the higher interest rate) were used first to fund the Acquisition, with any remaining funding coming from Term Loan A. A 1/8^th percent (0.125%) increase or decrease in interest rates would increase or decrease net income by $574,000.

⁽¹⁾The decrease in provisional estimated depreciation expense from historical amounts, despite the increased fair value adjustment reflected in the recorded Property, plant and equipment, net balance, is primarily attributable to differences in the useful lives for asset categories between Cable One and NewWave. The Cable One useful life for several asset categories is longer than the life previously used by NewWave.Cable One believes the longer useful lives are appropriate for the acquired assets.
