Cincinnati Bell 2015 Annual Report Download - page 4

Impacting our Community
Our financial results were outstanding. However, there
was much more to Cincinnati Bell’s story in 2015. We
also accelerated changes in the public perception of
Cincinnati Bell’s brand through a focus on innovation,
collaboration and community service.
• We launched the Connect Cincinnati mobile app,
the newest iteration in our “Light Up Cincinnati”
campaign, in July.
• We consolidated the majority of Cincinnati Bell
employees into our renovated downtown
headquarters, where we’re leveraging technology and
collaboration to deliver superior business results.
• We continued Cincinnati Bell’s longstanding
tradition of community service as our employees
donated their time, talents and money at
organizations throughout the region.
Cincinnati Bell is proud to play our part in Greater
Cincinnati’s economic development success story. Our
commitment goes beyond serving businesses and
consumers. We continue to invest in organizations that
are focused on creating new jobs and businesses, and
attracting new companies to our region.
And, our employees collectively volunteered hundreds
of hours to local nonprofits that focus on areas
including health and education. Our Company is truly
“One Team” made up of 3,250 individuals who are
working together every day to deliver results for our
customers, shareholders and community members.
Conclusion
2015 was a year of acceleration. 2016 promises more of
the same as we continue building out our fiber network
while launching new initiatives, including “MyTV”,
which will give Fioptics video customers more choice,
flexibility and value when choosing content packages.
We’re sharpening our focus on serving small to medium
sized business customers under a new brand called
“Cincinnati Bell Business,” and we will look for
business growth opportunities beyond Greater
Cincinnati.
Our progress towards reshaping Cincinnati Bell has
been impressive and we are excited about the
opportunity for creating shareholder value as we enter
our 143rd year of business. Thank you for your
investment, commitment and confidence in Cincinnati
Bell.
