ANNEX A
Cincinnati Bell Inc.
Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States (“GAAP” or referred to herein as “reported”). However, management believes that certain non-
GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful financial information that should be
considered when assessing our ongoing performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in
making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. Non-GAAP
financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management also believes non-GAAP financial measures should not be
construed as being more important than comparable GAAP measures.
For additional details regarding the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures below, see
the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2013 and February 9, 2012.
This information is also available in the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website,
