COAXIAL LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Coaxial LLC (the “Company”), a Delaware limited liability company, was formed on July 24, 1998 in order to own and hold 67½% of the common stock of Coaxial Communications of Central Ohio, Inc. (“Coaxial Inc.”). The Company has one individual as its sole member.

 

Coaxial Inc., an Ohio corporation, through its ownership of preferred interests, has a 30% voting interest in Insight Communications of Central Ohio, LLC (“Insight Ohio”). Insight Ohio operates a cable television system that provides basic and expanded cable television services to homes in the eastern parts of Columbus, Ohio and surrounding areas.

 

In connection with the contribution of Coaxial Inc.’s cable system (the “System”) and with the issuance of the Senior Notes and Senior Discount Notes by Coaxial Inc. and the Company during 1998, the three individuals who previously owned the outstanding stock of Coaxial Inc. contributed their stock to three separate limited liability companies. Accordingly, Coaxial Inc. is a subsidiary of the Company, which owns 67 1/2% of Coaxial Inc.’s outstanding stock.

 

Other related entities affiliated with the Company in addition to Coaxial Inc., include Coaxial DJM LLC, Coaxial DSM LLC, (collectively, the “Coaxial Entities”), Phoenix Associates (“Phoenix”), Coaxial Financing Corp., Coaxial Associates of Columbus I and Coaxial Associates of Columbus II.

 

The Company and Coaxial Financing Corp. are co-issuers of the Senior Discount Notes. Coaxial Inc. and Phoenix are co-issuers of the Senior Notes. The ability of Coaxial Financing Corp., the Company, Coaxial Inc. and Phoenix to make scheduled payments with respect to the Senior Discount Notes and Senior Notes is dependent on the financial and operating performance of Insight Ohio. The required distributions on the Series A preferred equity interest and Series B preferred equity interest to Coaxial Inc. are designed to provide the cash flow necessary to service the debt requirements on the Senior Notes and Senior Discount Notes, respectively.

 

2. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

 

In management’s opinion, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated

COAXIAL LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

2. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements (continued)

 

financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003 or any other interim period.

 

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Senior Discount Notes was $55.1 million and $36.7 million as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. The fair value of the Senior Notes was $144.2 million and $122.8 million as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

 

4. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income (loss) totaled $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and ($7.1) million and ($9.3) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. The Company owns common stock that is classified as available-for-sale and reported at market value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the accompanying balance sheets.

 

5. Subsequent Event

 

On July 22, 2003, Insight Communications Company, Inc. (“Insight Inc.”) issued a press release announcing it anticipates that it will have the opportunity, using approximately $30.0 million of its existing cash on hand, to purchase the equity interests of the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Inc. (together, with the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Inc., the “Coaxial Entities”). As a consequence of this purchase, Insight Inc. will beneficially own 800,000 shares of its outstanding common stock, which it expects to retire. Insight Inc. also announced plans to refinance the obligations of Insight Ohio and those of the Coaxial Entities it acquires. As of June 30, 2003, these obligations were comprised of Insight Ohio’s credit facility ($22.5 million principal amount), and the 10% senior notes due 2006 ($140.0 million principal amount) and 12 7/8% senior discount notes due 2008 ($55.9 million principal amount at maturity) conditionally guaranteed by Insight Ohio and for which Insight Ohio is obligated to make distributions in respect of the Series A and Series B preferred interests held by Coaxial Inc. The transactions will be accomplished through a refinancing of the $900 million term loan under the Insight Midwest Holdings credit facility into a new $1.125 billion term loan,

increasing the total credit facility size to $1.975 billion from $1.750 billion.

 

The proposed transactions are subject to the completion of definitive documents and customary closing conditions. Closing is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2003. If the foregoing refinancing transactions are completed, we would no longer file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

1. Organization

 

Coaxial Financing Corp. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on July 24, 1998, for the sole purpose of being a co-issuer with Coaxial LLC, a related entity, of discount notes which allows certain investors the ability to be holders of the debt.

COAXIAL COMMUNICATIONS OF CENTRAL OHIO, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Coaxial Communications of Central Ohio, Inc. (the “Company” or “Coaxial Inc.”), an Ohio corporation, through its ownership of preferred interests, has a 30% voting interest in Insight Communications of Central Ohio, LLC (“Insight Ohio”). Insight Ohio operates a cable television system that provides basic and expanded cable television services to homes in the eastern parts of Columbus, Ohio and surrounding areas. Prior to August 8, 2000, the Company owned 100% of the voting interest in Insight Ohio and therefore consolidated the financial statements of Insight Ohio for periods prior to such date. In connection with the contribution of the Company’s cable system (the “System”), the issuance of the Senior Notes and the issuance of the Senior Discount Notes by the Company’s majority shareholder, Coaxial LLC, during 1998 the three individuals who previously owned the outstanding stock of the Company contributed their stock to three separate limited liability companies. Accordingly, the Company is a subsidiary of Coaxial LLC, which owns 67 1/2% of its outstanding stock.

 

Other related entities affiliated with the Company in addition to Coaxial LLC, include Coaxial DJM LLC, Coaxial DSM LLC, (collectively, the “Coaxial Entities”), Phoenix Associates (“Phoenix”), Coaxial Financing Corp., Coaxial Associates of Columbus I and Coaxial Associates of Columbus II.

 

The Company and Phoenix are co-issuers of the Senior Notes. The ability of the Company and Phoenix to make scheduled payments with respect to the Senior Notes is dependent on the financial and operating performance of Insight Ohio. The required distributions on the Series A preferred equity interest to the Company is designed to provide the cash flow necessary to service the debt requirements on the Senior Notes.

 

2. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

 

In management’s opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003 or any other interim period.

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Senior Notes was $144.2 million and $122.8 million as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

 

4. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income (loss) totaled $2.7 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and ($6.0) million and ($7.3) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. The Company owns common stock that is classified as available-for-sale and reported at market value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the accompanying balance sheets.

 

5. Subsequent Event

 

On July 22, 2003, Insight Communications Company, Inc. (“Insight Inc.”) issued a press release announcing it anticipates that it will have the opportunity, using approximately $30.0 million of its existing cash on hand, to purchase the equity interests of the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Inc. (together, with the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Inc., the “Coaxial Entities”). As a consequence of this purchase, Insight Inc. will beneficially own 800,000 shares of its outstanding common stock, which it expects to retire. Insight Inc. also announced plans to refinance the obligations of Insight Ohio and those of the Coaxial Entities it acquires. As of June 30, 2003, these obligations were comprised of Insight Ohio’s credit facility ($22.5 million principal amount), and the 10% senior notes due 2006 ($140.0 million principal amount) and 12 7/8% senior discount notes due 2008 ($55.9 million principal amount at maturity) conditionally guaranteed by Insight Ohio and for which Insight Ohio is obligated to make distributions in respect of the Series A and Series B preferred interests held by Coaxial Inc. The transactions will be accomplished through a refinancing of the $900 million term loan under the Insight Midwest Holdings credit facility into a new $1.125 billion term loan, increasing the total credit facility size to $1.975 billion from $1.750 billion.

 

The proposed transactions are subject to the completion of definitive documents and customary closing conditions. Closing is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2003. If the foregoing refinancing transactions are completed, we would no longer file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Insight Communications of Central Ohio, LLC (the “Company”) is a subsidiary of Insight Holdings of Ohio, LLC which owns 100% of its common equity, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Insight Midwest, L.P. (“Insight Midwest”). Insight Midwest is equally owned by Insight Communications Company L.P. (“Insight LP”) and an affiliate of Comcast Cable Holdings, LLC (“Comcast Cable”) (formerly known as AT&T Broadband, LLC). Insight LP, as general partner and manager of Insight Midwest, manages and operates the Company’s systems. The Company provides basic and expanded cable television services to homes in the eastern parts of Columbus, Ohio and surrounding areas.

 

2. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

 

In management’s opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes to financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003 or any other interim period.

 

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003, in accordance with the new statement. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 had no impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Disposal Obligations”, which became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 146 supersedes EITF Issue No. 94-3 “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”. SFAS No. 146 addresses the accounting for and disclosure of costs to terminate an existing contractual obligation (including but not limited to operating leases), incremental direct and other costs associated with the related disposal activity and termination benefits (severance pay) provided to employees pursuant to a one-time benefit arrangement that does not constitute a preexisting or newly-created ongoing benefit plan. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”), which requires variable interest entities (commonly referred to as SPEs) to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if certain criteria are met. FIN 46 is effective immediately for all new variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 become effective during the third quarter of 2003. For variable interest entities acquired prior to February 1, 2003, any difference between the net amount added to the balance sheet and the amount of any previously recognized interest in the variable interest entity will be recognized as a cumulative effect of an accounting change. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of FIN 46 but does not believe the adoption of FIN 46 will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

4. Related Party Transactions

 

Management Fees

 

The Company pays Insight LP management fees of approximately 3% of its revenue to serve as manager of the Company’s cable systems.

 

Programming

 

The Company purchases the majority of its programming through affiliates of Comcast Cable. Charges for such programming, including a 1 1/2% administrative fee, were $2.1 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and $1.7 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, $3.0 million and $1.4 million of accrued programming costs were due to affiliates of Comcast Cable. The company believes that the programming rates charged through these affiliates are lower than those available from independent parties.

 

Telephone Agreements

 

In July 2000, to facilitate delivery of telephone services Insight Midwest entered into a ten-year agreement with AT&T Broadband (now known as Comcast Cable) that allows the Company to deliver local telephone service. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company leases certain capacity on its local network to Comcast Cable. Revenue earned from leased network capacity used in the provision of

In addition, the Company provides certain services and support for which it receives additional payments related to installations, marketing and billing support. Fee revenue earned in connection with installations is deferred and amortized over the expected term a telephone customer maintains their telephone service, currently estimated to be three years. Marketing and billing support revenue is recognized in the period such services are performed.

 

5. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Programming Contracts

 

The Company enters into long-term contracts with third parties who provide programming for distribution over the Company’s cable television systems. These programming contracts are a significant part of its business and represent a substantial portion of its operating costs. Since future fees under such contracts are based on numerous variables, including number and type of customers, the Company has not recorded any liabilities with respect to such contracts.

 

Litigation

 

The Company is party in or may be affected by various matters under litigation. Management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s future results of operations or financial position.

 

6. Subsequent Event

 

On July 22, 2003, Insight Communications Company, Inc. (“Insight Inc.”), the parent of Insight LP, issued a press release announcing it anticipates that it will have the opportunity, using approximately $30.0 million of its existing cash on hand, to purchase the equity interests of the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Communications of Central Ohio, Inc. (“Coaxial” and together with the limited liability companies that own Coaxial, the “Coaxial Entities”). As a consequence of this purchase, Insight Inc. will beneficially own 800,000 shares of its outstanding common stock, which it expects to retire. Insight Inc. also announced plans to refinance the obligations of the Company and those of the Coaxial Entities it acquires. As of June 30, 2003, these obligations were comprised of the Company’s credit facility ($22.5 million principal amount), and the 10% senior notes due 2006 ($140.0 million principal amount) and 12 7/8% senior discount notes due 2008 ($55.9 million principal amount at maturity) conditionally guaranteed by the Company and for which the Company is obligated to make distributions in respect of the Series A and Series B preferred interests held by Coaxial. The transactions will be accomplished through a refinancing of the $900 million term loan under the Insight Midwest Holdings credit facility into a new $1.125 billion term loan, increasing the total credit facility size to $1.975 billion from $1.750 billion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

6. Subsequent Event (continued)

 

The proposed transactions are subject to the completion of definitive documents and customary closing conditions. Closing is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2003. If the foregoing refinancing transactions are completed, we would no longer file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this report.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains “forward-looking statements,” including statements containing the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects” and words of similar import, which concern, among other things, the operations, economic performance and financial condition of Insight Communications of Central Ohio, LLC (“Insight Ohio” or the “System”). All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this report regarding Coaxial LLC (“Coaxial”), Coaxial Financing Corp. and Insight Ohio (collectively, the “Companies”) or any of the transactions described in this report, including the timing, financing, strategies and effects of such transactions, are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates, which are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Companies, and reflect future business decisions that are subject to change. Although the management of the Companies believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, they can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, without limitation:

 

    the ability of Coaxial and Coaxial Financing Corp. to make scheduled payments with respect to the Senior Discount Notes (as defined below) which is dependent upon the financial and operating performance of the System;

 

    the fact that a substantial portion of the System’s cash flow from operations is required to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on its indebtedness and the required distributions with respect to its Preferred Interests, thereby reducing the funds available to the System for its operations and future business opportunities;

 

    the fact that Coaxial and Coaxial Financing Corp. have no significant assets other than Coaxial’s ownership of the common equity of Coaxial Communications of Central Ohio, Inc. (“Coaxial Inc.”) and notes issued by Coaxial DJM LLC (an owner of 22.5% of the common equity of Coaxial Inc.) and Coaxial DSM LLC (an owner of 10% of the common equity of Coaxial Inc.) to Coaxial; and

 

    the fact that the indenture governing the terms of the Senior Discount Notes imposes restrictions on Coaxial, Coaxial Financing Corp. and Insight Ohio and the Senior Credit Facility of the System imposes restrictions on Insight Ohio.

 

Management of the Companies does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

 

Coaxial and Coaxial Financing Corp. do not conduct any business and are dependent upon the cash flow of the System to meet their obligations under the Senior Discount Notes. Insight Communications Company, LP (“Insight LP”) serves as the manager of the System.

 

30


The following discussion relates to the operations of the System for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.

 

Overview

 

The System relies on Insight LP, for all of its strategic, managerial, financial and operational oversight and advice. Insight LP also centrally purchases programming and equipment and provides the associated discount to the System. In exchange for all such services provided to the System and subject to certain restrictions contained in the covenants with respect to Insight Ohio’s Senior Credit Facility and the Senior Notes, Insight LP receives management fees of approximately 3.0% of gross operating revenue of the System. Such management fees are payable only after distributions have been made with respect to the Preferred Interests and only to the extent that such payments would be permitted by an exception to the restricted payments covenants of the Senior Notes as well as Insight Ohio’s Senior Credit Facility.

 

Results of Operations

 

Revenues are earned from customer fees for cable television programming services including premium, digital and pay-per-view services and ancillary services, such as rental of converters and remote control devices, installations and from selling advertising. In addition, the System earns revenues from providing high-speed data and from facilitating the delivery of telephone services as well as from commissions for products sold through home shopping networks.

 

The following table is derived for the periods presented from the System’s financial statements that are included in this report and sets forth certain statement of operations data for the System:

Operating cash flow is a financial measure that is not calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Insight Ohio defines operating cash flow as operating income or loss before depreciation and amortization. Operating cash flow eliminates the uneven effect on operating income of non-cash depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of certain intangible assets and, therefore, is useful to management in measuring the overall operational strength and performance of Insight Ohio. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating Insight Ohio’s revenues. Management evaluates the costs of such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and investment spending. Another limitation of operating cash flow is that it does not reflect income net of interest expense, which is a significant expense of Insight Ohio because of the substantial debt it incurred to acquire its cable television systems and finance the capital expenditures for the upgrade of its cable network.

 

Despite the limitations of operating cash flow, management believes that the presentation of this financial measure is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to evaluate Insight Ohio’s performance in a manner similar to the method used by management. In addition, operating cash flow is commonly used in the cable television industry to analyze and compare cable television companies on the basis of operating performance, although Insight Ohio’s measure of operating cash flow may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Operating cash flow should not 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 well as other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

The following calculations of operating cash flow are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled amounts of other companies:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2002

 

Revenue increased $1.4 million or 9% primarily as a result of gains in the System’s high-speed data and digital services, which increased 35% and 16% over the prior year’s quarter, respectively. In addition, the System’s basic cable service revenue increased 5% primarily due to basic cable rate increases implemented in July 2002. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, customers served averaged approximately 87,000 compared to approximately 87,700 during the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Revenue Generating Units (“RGUs”) were approximately 141,300 as of June 30, 2003 compared to approximately 131,100 as of June 30, 2002. This represents an annual growth rate of 8%. RGUs represent the sum of basic and digital video, high-speed data and telephone customers.

 

Average monthly revenue per basic customer for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $65.29 compared to $59.52 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Average monthly revenue per basic customer for digital and high-speed data services was $16.67 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $12.99 for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

 

Programming and other operating costs increased $1.4 million or 26%. The increase was primarily attributable to other operating costs, which increased as a result of a decrease in the amount of technical employee salaries capitalized and increases in plant maintenance costs. Additionally, the increase was also attributable to a 30% increase in our high-speed data costs due to increased customers served and a 4% increase in our programming costs due to increased programming and customers served.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat quarter over quarter. The 1% increase is primarily attributable to annual salary increases and increases in payroll related costs for existing employees as well as the addition of new employees and increases in customer collection fees. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense.

 

Management fees are directly related to revenue as these fees are calculated as approximately 3% of gross revenues.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.2 million or 31% primarily as a result of additional capital expenditures through June 30, 2003 to extend our plant and continue the rollout of digital, high-speed data and telephone services to existing and new service areas.

 

Operating cash flow decreased 2% to $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 down from $6.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the $1.5

 

33


million or 17% increase in programming and other operating costs, selling, general and administrative expenses and management fees offset by the $1.4 million or 9% increase in revenue.

 

Interest expense decreased $62,000 or 25% primarily as a result of a decrease in the average interest rate and average debt outstanding quarter over quarter.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2003, net income was $1.3 million.

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2002

 

Revenue increased $3.1 million or 10% primarily as a result of gains in the System’s high-speed data and digital services, which increased 46% and 23% over the prior year’s quarter, respectively. In addition, the System’s basic cable service revenue increased 6% primarily due to basic cable rate increases implemented in July 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, customers served averaged approximately 87,400 compared to approximately 87,100 during the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Average monthly revenue per basic customer for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $64.57 compared to $58.71 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Average monthly revenue per basic customer for digital and high-speed data services was $16.11 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $11.86 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

 

Programming and other operating costs increased $2.3 million or 21%. The increase was primarily attributable to a 42% increase in our high-speed data costs due to increased customers served and an 8% increase in our programming costs due to increased programming and customers served. Additionally, the increase was also attributable to other operating costs, which increased as a result of a decrease in the amount of technical employee salaries capitalized and increases in plant maintenance costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $313,000 or 5% period over period. The increase is primarily attributable to annual salary increases and increases in payroll related costs for existing employees as well as the addition of new employees and an increase in customer collection fees. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense.

 

Management fees are directly related to revenue as these fees are calculated as approximately 3% of gross revenues.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.3 million or 30% primarily as a result of additional capital expenditures through June 30, 2003 to extend our plant and continue the rollout of digital, high-speed data and telephone services to existing and new service areas.

 

Operating cash flow increased 3% to $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 up from $12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This increase was primarily due to the $3.1 million or 10% increase in revenue offset by the $2.7 million or 15% increase in programming and other operating costs, selling, general and administrative expenses, and management fees.

 

Interest expense decreased $47,000 or 10% primarily as a result of a decrease in the average interest rate and average debt outstanding quarter over quarter.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, net income was $2.8 million.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The cable television business is a capital-intensive business that generally requires financing for the upgrade, expansion and maintenance of the technical infrastructure. Capital expenditures totaled $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. These expenditures were primarily for the upgrade of the System to support the telephone rollout, the purchase of customer premise equipment and plant expansions. Capital expenditures were financed by cash flows from operations and capital contributions.

 

Cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $14.4 million and $11.0 million, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to the timing of cash receipts and payments related to working capital accounts.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $5.1 million and $13.1 million, respectively, reflecting capital expenditures to upgrade the System for the continued rollout of telephone, the purchase of customer premise equipment and to build plant extensions.

 

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $2.5 million. This was comprised of capital contributions from Insight Midwest of $7.0 million offset by distributions on preferred interests of $7.0 million and a repayment of the Ohio credit facility of $2.5 million. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $3.0 million consisting of capital contributions of $10.0 million, less distributions on preferred interests of $7.0 million.

The Senior Credit Facility contains covenants restricting, among other things, the Company’s ability to make capital expenditures, acquire or dispose of assets, make investments and engage in transactions with related parties. The facility also requires compliance with certain financial ratios and contains customary events of default. Given current operating conditions and projected results of operations, we anticipate full compliance with this credit facility agreement, as amended, for the foreseeable future.

 

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commitments, excluding interest, preferred dividends and commitments for programming, as of June 30, 2003, including periods in which the related payments are due (in thousands):

Management has determined that cash flows from operations will not be sufficient to finance the operating and capital requirements of the System, debt service requirements and distributions on the Preferred Interests for the current year. As such, Insight Midwest has committed to provide capital contributions to fund cash requirements through the year ending December 31, 2003.

 

On July 22, 2003, Insight Communications Company, Inc. (“Insight Inc.”), the parent of Insight LP, issued a press release announcing it anticipates that it will have the opportunity, using approximately $30.0 million of its existing cash on hand, to purchase the equity interests of the limited liability companies that own Coaxial Communications of Central Ohio, Inc. (“Coaxial” and together with the limited liability companies that own Coaxial, the “Coaxial Entities”). As a consequence of this purchase, Insight Inc. will beneficially own 800,000 shares of its outstanding common stock, which it expects to retire. Insight Inc. also announced plans to refinance the obligations of the Company and those of the Coaxial Entities it acquires. As of June 30, 2003, these obligations were comprised of the Company’s credit facility ($22.5 million principal amount), and the 10% senior notes due 2006 ($140.0 million principal amount) and 12 7/8% senior discount notes due 2008 ($55.9 million principal amount at maturity) conditionally guaranteed by the Company and for which the Company is obligated to make distributions in respect of the Series A and Series B preferred interests held by Coaxial. The transactions will be accomplished through a refinancing of the $900 million term loan under the Insight Midwest Holdings credit facility into a new $1.125 billion term loan, increasing the total credit facility size to $1.975 billion from $1.750 billion.

 

36


The proposed transactions are subject to the completion of definitive documents and customary closing conditions. Closing is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2003. If the foregoing refinancing transactions are completed, we would no longer file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The Companies do not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments and do not purchase hedging instruments or “other than trading” instruments that are likely to expose them to market risk, interest rate, foreign currency exchange, commodity price or equity price risk. The Companies have not entered into forward or future contracts, purchased options or entered into swap agreements.

 

Insight Ohio’s Senior Credit Facility bears interest at floating rates. Accordingly, Insight Ohio is exposed to potential losses related to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates along the entire interest rate yield curve would increase projected annual interest expense by $225,000. The Senior Notes issued by Coaxial Inc. and Phoenix bear interest at fixed rates.

 

The fair value of borrowings under Insight Ohio’s senior credit facility approximates carrying value as it bears interest at floating rates. The fair value and carrying value of the Senior Notes and Senior Discount Notes as of June 30, 2003 was $144.2 million and $140.0 million and $55.1 million and $55.2 million, respectively.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Coaxial LLC’s management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of Coaxial LLC’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2003. Based upon that evaluation, Coaxial LLC’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Coaxial LLC’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Coaxial LLC in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
