TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION—(Continued)
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, important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those in its forward-
looking statements include:
• increased competition from video, high-speed data, networking and voice providers, particularly direct broadcast
satellite operators, local telephone companies (ILECs and CLECs), interexchange carriers, companies that deliver
programming over broadband Internet connections, and wireless broadband and phone providers;
• the Company’s ability to deal effectively with the current challenging economic environment or further
deterioration in the economy, which may negatively impact customers’ demand for the Company’s services and
also result in a reduction in the Company’s advertising revenue;
• the Company’s continued ability to exploit new and existing technologies that appeal to residential and business
services customers and advertisers;
• changes in the regulatory and tax environments in which the Company operates, including, among others,
regulation of broadband Internet services, “net neutrality” legislation or regulation and federal, state and local
taxation;
• increased difficulty negotiating programming and retransmission agreements on favorable terms, resulting in
increased costs to the Company and/or the loss of popular programming; and
• changes in the Company’s plans, initiatives and strategies.
Any forward-looking statements made by the Company in this document speak only as of the date on which they are
made. 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 changes in circumstances, new information, subsequent events or otherwise.
