Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure. Pursuant to Exchange Act Release 34-47583, we are furnishing the information required by Item 12 of Form 8-K, "Results of Operations and Financial Condition," under this Item 9. Insight Communications Company, Inc. has issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, and a copy of the press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference. The press release contains disclosure of operating cash flow and system cash flow, each of which is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Page 8 of the press release contains a tabular reconciliation of operating income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to operating cash flow and system cash flow, respectively. We believe that operating cash flow and system cash flow are commonly used in the cable television industry to analyze and compare cable television companies on the basis of operating performance, leverage and liquidity. However, such measures are not intended to be a performance measure that should be regarded as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, either operating income or net income as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows as a measure of liquidity, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition. Pursuant to Exchange Act Release 34-47583, we are furnishing the information required by this Item 12 under Item 9 of Form 8-K, "Regulation FD Disclosure". SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
