CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, particularly statements anticipating future growth in revenues, cash provided by operating
activities and other financial measures. Words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “intends,”
“plans,” “believes” and words and terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future
operating or financial performance identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are
based on management’s current expectations and beliefs about future events. As with any projection or forecast,
they are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances, and the Company is under no
obligation to, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a
result of such changes, new information, subsequent events or otherwise.
Various factors could adversely affect the operations, business or financial results of TWC in the future and
cause TWC’s actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, including
those factors discussed in detail in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in Part I of this report, and in TWC’s other filings made
from time to time with the SEC after the date of this report. In addition, the Company operates in a highly
competitive, consumer and technology-driven and rapidly changing business. The Company’s business is affected
by government regulation, economic, strategic, political and social conditions, consumer response to new and
existing products and services, technological developments and, particularly in view of new technologies, its
continued ability to protect and secure any necessary intellectual property rights. TWC’s actual results could differ
materially from management’s expectations because of changes in such factors.
Further, lower than expected valuations associated with the Company’s cash flows and revenues may result in
the Company’s inability to realize the value of recorded intangibles and goodwill. Additionally, achieving the
Company’s financial objectives could be adversely affected by the factors discussed in detail in Item 1A, “Risk
Factors,” in Part I of this report, as well as:
• economic slowdowns;
• the impact of terrorist acts and hostilities;
• changes in the Company’s plans, strategies and intentions;
• the impacts of significant acquisitions, dispositions and other similar transactions;
• the failure to meet earnings expectations; and
• decreased liquidity in the capital markets, including any reduction in the ability to access the capital
markets for debt securities or bank financings.
