NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business-CBS Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” or “CBS Corp.”) is comprised of the following segments: Entertainment (CBS Television, comprised of the CBS Television Network, CBS Television Studios, CBS Studios International, and CBS Television Distribution; CBS Interactive and CBS Films), Cable Networks (Showtime Networks, CBS Sports Network and Smithsonian Networks), Publishing (Simon & Schuster) and Local Broadcasting (CBS Television Stations and CBS Radio).

In connection with the Company’s previously announced plans to separate its radio business, a preliminary registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in July 2016 for the proposed initial public offering of the common stock of CBS Radio Inc.

Basis of Presentation-The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Use of Estimates-The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Other Operating Items, Net-Other operating items, net for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 2015 includes gains from the sales of businesses, and for 2016 also includes a multiyear, retroactive impact of a new operating tax.

Net Earnings per Common Share-Basic net earnings per share (“EPS”) is based upon net earnings divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive. Excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive, were 6 million stock options for both the three and six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 4 million stock options for both the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015.

The table below presents a reconciliation of weighted average shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS.

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 30,		June 30,
(in millions)	2016	2015	2016	2015
Weighted average shares for basic EPS	451	490	455	494
Dilutive effect of shares issuable under stock-based compensation plans	4	5	4	6
Weighted average shares for diluted EPS	455	495	459	500

Other Liabilities-Other liabilities consist primarily of the noncurrent portion of residual liabilities of previously disposed businesses, participants’ share and royalties payable, program rights obligations, deferred compensation and other employee benefit accruals.

Additional Paid-In Capital-For the six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded dividends of $138 million and $150 million, respectively, as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as the Company had an accumulated deficit balance.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted amended Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance which eliminates the requirement to retrospectively account for adjustments to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination when new information is obtained during the measurement period about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Under the amended guidance the acquirer is required to recognize such adjustments in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are identified. Such adjustments also include the effect on earnings from any changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects resulting from the change to provisional amounts, as if the change occurred at the acquisition date. The amendment also requires disclosure or separate presentation on the face of the income statement of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted amended FASB guidance which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items. This guidance removes the requirement to assess whether an event or transaction is both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence and to separately present any such items on the statement of operations after income from continuing operations. Rather, such items are required to be presented as a separate component of income from continuing operations or disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted FASB guidance on the accounting for stock-based compensation when the terms of an award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. Under this guidance, such performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company should begin recognizing compensation cost in the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved, for the cumulative amount of compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Pronouncements

Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting

In March 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions. Under this amended guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement in the period in which the awards vest or are exercised. In the statement of cash flows, excess tax benefits will be classified with other income tax cash flows in operating activities. The amended guidance also gives the option to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur and increases the threshold for awards that are partially settled in cash to qualify for equity classification. The Company expects that the adoption of this guidance will introduce volatility into the Company’s income tax provision, which will be impacted by the timing of employee exercises and changes in the Company’s stock price. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for leases, which supersedes previous lease guidance. Under this guidance, for all leases with terms in excess of one year, including operating leases, the Company will be required to recognize on its balance sheet a lease liability and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The new guidance retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria is substantially similar to previous guidance. Additionally, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated balance sheets. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted.

Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance which requires management to evaluate, for each interim and annual reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. If management identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt, disclosures are required in the financial statements, including any plans that will alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. This guidance, which is effective for the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016, is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition of revenues which provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers and supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance. The main principle under this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue at the amount it expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers. The Company anticipates that this guidance will result in changes to its revenue recognition and is currently assessing the impact. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.

2) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 2015.

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2016			2015			2016			2015
RSUs	$	37		$	35		$	73		$	73
Stock options	8			8			15			16
Stock-based compensation expense, before income taxes	45			43			88			89
Related tax benefit	(17		)	(16		)	(34		)	(34		)
Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax benefit	$	28		$	27		$	54		$	55

During the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the Company granted 3 million RSUs for CBS Corp. Class B Common Stock with a weighted average per unit grant-date fair value of $47.24. RSUs granted during the first six months of 2016 generally vest over a one- to four-year service period. Compensation expense for RSUs is determined based upon the market price of the shares underlying the awards on the date of grant. For certain RSU awards the number of shares an employee earns ranges from 0% to 120% of the target award, based on the outcome of established performance conditions. Compensation expense is recorded based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions. During the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the Company also granted 2 million stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $45.79. Stock options granted during the first six months of 2016 vest over a four-year service period and expire eight years from the date of grant. Compensation expense for stock options is determined based on the grant date fair value of the award calculated using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model.

Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs at June 30, 2016 was $276 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock option awards at June 30, 2016 was $58 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

At June 30, 2016, the Company had $163 million of outstanding commercial paper borrowings under its $2.5 billion commercial paper program at a weighted average interest rate of 0.72% and with maturities of less than 45 days. The Company had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings at December 31, 2015.

Credit Facility

During June 2016, the Company amended and restated its $2.5 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The amended Credit Facility expires in June 2021 and contains provisions that are substantially similar to the previous Credit Facility, which was due to expire in December 2019. The Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 4.5x at the end of each quarter as further described in the Credit Facility. At June 30, 2016, the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio was approximately 2.4x.

The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is the ratio of the Company’s indebtedness from continuing operations, adjusted to exclude certain capital lease obligations, at the end of a quarter, to the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four consecutive quarters. Consolidated EBITDA is defined in the Credit Facility as operating income plus interest income and before depreciation, amortization and certain other noncash items.

The Credit Facility is used for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2016, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and the remaining availability under the Credit Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, was $2.49 billion.

8) INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes represents federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes on earnings before income taxes and equity in loss of investee companies.

The provision for income taxes was $205 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and $165 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 32.2% and 32.8%, respectively. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the provision for income taxes was $436 million compared to $368 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015, reflecting an income tax rate of 32.0% and 33.1%, respectively.

9) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees

The Company has indemnification obligations with respect to letters of credit and surety bonds primarily used as security against non-performance in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2016, the outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds approximated $110 million and were not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In the course of its business, the Company both provides and receives indemnities which are intended to allocate certain risks associated with business transactions. Similarly, the Company may remain contingently liable for various obligations of a business that has been divested in the event that a third party does not live up to its

-14-

CBS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

obligations under an indemnification obligation. The Company records a liability for its indemnification obligations and other contingent liabilities when probable and reasonably estimable.

Legal Matters

General. On an ongoing basis, the Company vigorously defends itself in numerous lawsuits and proceedings and responds to various investigations and inquiries from federal, state, local and international authorities (collectively, ‘‘litigation’’). Litigation may be brought against the Company without merit, is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict. However, based on its understanding and evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Company believes that the below-described legal matters and other litigation to which it is a party are not likely, in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Under the Separation Agreement between the Company and Viacom Inc., the Company and Viacom Inc. have agreed to defend and indemnify the other in certain litigation in which the Company and/or Viacom Inc. is named.

Claims Related to Former Businesses: Asbestos. The Company is a defendant in lawsuits claiming various personal injuries related to asbestos and other materials, which allegedly occurred principally as a result of exposure caused by various products manufactured by Westinghouse, a predecessor, generally prior to the early 1970s. Westinghouse was neither a producer nor a manufacturer of asbestos. The Company is typically named as one of a large number of defendants in both state and federal cases. In the majority of asbestos lawsuits, the plaintiffs have not identified which of the Company’s products is the basis of a claim. Claims against the Company in which a product has been identified principally relate to exposures allegedly caused by asbestos-containing insulating material in turbines sold for power-generation, industrial and marine use.

Claims are frequently filed and/or settled in groups, which may make the amount and timing of settlements, and the number of pending claims, subject to significant fluctuation from period to period. The Company does not report as pending those claims on inactive, stayed, deferred or similar dockets which some jurisdictions have established for claimants who allege minimal or no impairment. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had pending approximately 34,790 asbestos claims, as compared with approximately 36,030 as of December 31, 2015 and 38,000 as of June 30, 2015. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company received approximately 1,190 new claims and closed or moved to an inactive docket approximately 1,440 claims. The Company reports claims as closed when it becomes aware that a dismissal order has been entered by a court or when the Company has reached agreement with the claimants on the material terms of a settlement. Settlement costs depend on the seriousness of the injuries that form the basis of the claims, the quality of evidence supporting the claims and other factors. In 2015, as the result of an insurance settlement, insurance recoveries exceeded the Company’s after tax costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims by approximately $5 million. In 2014, the Company’s costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims after insurance and taxes were approximately $11 million. The Company’s costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims may vary year to year and insurance proceeds are not always recovered in the same period as the insured portion of the expenses.

The Company believes that its reserves and insurance are adequate to cover its asbestos liabilities. This belief is based upon many factors and assumptions, including the number of outstanding claims, estimated average cost per claim, the breakdown of claims by disease type, historic claim filings, costs per claim of resolution and the filing of new claims. While the number of asbestos claims filed against the Company has trended down in the past five to ten years and has remained flat in recent years, it is difficult to predict future asbestos liabilities, as events and circumstances may occur including, among others, the number and types of claims and average cost to resolve such claims, which could affect the Company’s estimate of its asbestos liabilities.

Other. The Company from time to time receives claims from federal and state environmental regulatory agencies and other entities asserting that it is or may be liable for environmental cleanup costs and related damages

-15-

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

principally relating to historical and predecessor operations of the Company. In addition, the Company from time to time receives personal injury claims including toxic tort and product liability claims (other than asbestos) arising from historical operations of the Company and its predecessors.

10) RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the year ended December 31, 2015, in a continued effort to reduce its cost structure, the Company initiated restructuring plans across several of its businesses, primarily for the reorganization of certain business operations. As a result, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $81 million, reflecting $48 million of severance costs and $33 million of costs associated with exiting contractual obligations and other related costs. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $26 million reflecting $17 million of severance costs and $9 million of costs associated with exiting contractual obligations. As of June 30, 2016, the cumulative settlements for the 2015 and 2014 restructuring charges were $76 million, of which $50 million was for severance costs and $26 million was for costs associated with contractual obligations. The Company expects to substantially utilize its restructuring reserves by the end of 2016.

11) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s carrying value of financial instruments approximates fair value, except for notes and debentures, which are not recorded at fair value. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the carrying value of the Company’s senior debt was $8.17 billion and $8.37 billion, respectively, and the fair value, which is estimated based on quoted market prices for similar liabilities (Level 2) and includes accrued interest, was $9.18 billion and $8.78 billion, respectively.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments primarily to modify its exposure to market risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments unless there is an underlying exposure and, therefore, the Company does not hold or enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

Foreign exchange forward contracts have principally been used to hedge projected cash flows, in currencies such as the British Pound, the Euro, the Canadian Dollar and the Australian Dollar, generally for periods up to 24 months. The Company designates forward contracts used to hedge committed and forecasted foreign currency transactions as cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on the effective portion of designated cash flow hedges are initially recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified to the statement of operations when the

-16-

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

hedged item is recognized. Additionally, the Company enters into non-designated forward contracts to hedge non-U.S. dollar denominated cash flows.

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the notional amount of all foreign exchange contracts was $398 million and $291 million, respectively.

Gains (losses) recognized on derivative financial instruments were as follows:

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended
	June 30,					June 30,
	2016		2015			2016		2015		Financial Statement Account
Non-designated foreign exchange contracts	$	15	$	(7	)	$	9	$	6	Other items, net
Designated interest rate swaps (a)	$	—	$	3		$	—	$	5	Interest expense

(a) The gains during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 related to interest rate swaps that were settled during 2015.

The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments was not material to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for any of the periods presented.

The following tables set forth the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. These assets and liabilities have been categorized according to the three-level fair value hierarchy established by the FASB, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. Level 1 is based on publicly quoted prices for the asset or liability in active markets. Level 2 is based on inputs that are observable other than quoted market prices in active markets, such as quoted prices for the asset or liability in inactive markets or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities. Level 3 is based on unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

At June 30, 2016	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Foreign currency hedges	$	—	$	19	$	—	$	19
Total Assets	$	—	$	19	$	—	$	19
Liabilities:
Deferred compensation	$	—	$	317	$	—	$	317
Foreign currency hedges	—		4		—		4
Total Liabilities	$	—	$	321	$	—	$	321

At December 31, 2015	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Foreign currency hedges	$	—	$	13	$	—	$	13
Total Assets	$	—	$	13	$	—	$	13
Liabilities:
Deferred compensation	$	—	$	312	$	—	$	312
Total Liabilities	$	—	$	312	$	—	$	312

The fair value of foreign currency hedges is determined based on the present value of future cash flows using observable inputs including foreign currency exchange rates. The fair value of deferred compensation liabilities is determined based on the fair value of the investments elected by employees.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
	(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

Management’s discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of CBS Corporation (the “Company” or “CBS Corp.”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Overview

Business overview and strategy

The Company operates businesses which span the media and entertainment industries, including the CBS Television Network, cable networks, content production and distribution, television and radio stations, internet-based businesses, and consumer publishing. The Company’s principal strategy is to create and acquire premium content that is widely accepted by audiences and generate both advertising and non-advertising revenues from the distribution of this content on multiple media platforms and to various geographic locations. The Company continues to increase its investment in both Company-owned and acquired premium content to enhance its opportunities for revenue growth, which include exhibiting the Company’s content on digital and other platforms through licensing and subscription services, including the Company’s owned digital streaming services; expanding the distribution of its content internationally; securing compensation from multichannel video programming distributors (“MVPDs”) and television stations affiliated with the CBS Television Network; and further monetizing delayed viewing. The Company believes that its increased investment in premium content will also enable it to stay ahead of changes in the media and entertainment industry, including new distribution platforms and changes in programming packages offered to consumers.

In connection with the Company’s previously announced plans to separate its radio business, a preliminary registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’) in July 2016 for the proposed initial public offering of the common stock of CBS Radio Inc.

(a) See pages 31-32 for reconciliations of adjusted results to the most directly comparable financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported growth in revenues, operating income and diluted earnings per share (‘‘EPS’’), driven by higher television licensing sales in international markets and continued growth in station affiliation fees and retransmission revenues.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, revenues increased 2%; however, comparability was impacted by two significant events in the second quarter of 2015 which did not recur in 2016: Showtime Networks’ distribution of the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao boxing event, the highest-grossing pay-per-view event of all time, and CBS’s broadcast of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship (“NCAA Tournament”) finals, which was broadcast by Turner Broadcasting Systems (“Turner”) in 2016. These two events impacted the second quarter revenue comparison by six percentage points. Revenue growth for the second quarter of 2016 was led by a 16%

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

increase in content licensing and distribution revenues, driven mainly by the international licensing of five Star Trek series. Affiliate and subscription fee revenues decreased 3% as a result of the previously mentioned pay-per-view boxing event, which was offset by 44% growth in station affiliation fees and retransmission revenues, as well as revenues from new digital distribution platforms, including CBS All Access and Showtime Networks’ over-the-top digital streaming subscription offering (“Showtime Networks’ over-the-top service”). Advertising revenues decreased 3% reflecting the previously mentioned benefit to 2015 from the broadcast of the NCAA Tournament finals, as well as the impact from the sales of internet businesses in China during 2015, partially offset by 2% growth in underlying network advertising revenues.

Operating income grew 25% and diluted EPS increased 39% from the second quarter of 2015 primarily driven by increases from higher-margin revenues. In addition, included in operating income and diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2015 were restructuring charges of $55 million. On an adjusted basis, excluding these restructuring charges, operating income grew 14% and diluted EPS increased 26%. The previously mentioned impact to revenues from the 2015 pay-per-view boxing event did not have a significant impact to operating income as the revenues were largely offset by the associated costs. The EPS comparison also benefited from lower weighted average shares outstanding as a result of the Company’s ongoing share repurchase program.

(a) See pages 31 - 32 for reconciliations of adjusted results to the most directly comparable financial measures in accordance with GAAP.

For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 6%increase in revenues was driven by 15% growth in advertising revenues, reflecting CBS’s broadcast of Super Bowl 50 and 7% growth in underlying network advertising. Affiliate and subscription fee revenues increased 5%, driven by 43% growth in station affiliation fees and retransmission revenues, as well as revenues from new digital distribution platforms, partially offset by the benefit to the second quarter of 2015 from the previously mentioned pay-per-view boxing event. Content licensing and distribution revenues declined 9%, reflecting lower domestic licensing sales compared to the first half of 2015 which included significant domestic licensing sales of NCIS and CSI, partially offset by growth from international licensing, mainly from the sales of Star Trek series.

Operating income grew 19% and diluted EPS increased 34% primarily driven by the higher revenues, as well as restructuring charges of $55 million recorded during the six months endedJune 30, 2015. The EPS comparison also benefited from lower weighted average shares outstanding as a result of the Company’s ongoing share repurchase program.

The Company generated operating cash flow from continuing operations of $1.25 billion for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 compared with $881 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015. Free cash flow for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 was $1.17 billion compared with $835 million for the same prior-year period. These

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

increases were primarily driven by growth in affiliate and subscription fees and higher advertising revenues, including the broadcast of Super Bowl 50 on CBS, partially offset by increased investment in content. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Free Cash Flow” on page 47 for a reconciliation of net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to free cash flow.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company repurchased 9.2 million shares of its Class B Common Stock under its share repurchase program for $500 million, at an average cost of $54.21 per share. During the six months endedJune 30,2016, the Company repurchased 19.5 million shares of its Class B Common Stock for $1.00 billion, at an average cost of $51.27 per share, leaving $1.00 billion of authorization at June 30, 2016.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.15 on its Class A and Class B Common Stock, resulting in total dividends of $69 million, payable on July 1, 2016.

On July 28, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved an increase to the Company’s share repurchase program to a total availability of $6.0 billion, as well as a 20% increase to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s Class A and Class B Common Stock from $.15 to $.18 per share, payable on October 1, 2016, to shareholders of record on September 9, 2016.

Debt

During July 2016, the Company issued $700 million of 2.90%senior notes due 2027. The Company is using the net proceeds from this issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of CBS Corp. Class B Common Stock and the repayment of short-term borrowings, including commercial paper. Upon settlement of the debt issuance on July 11, 2016, the Company had $8.85 billion of long-term debt outstanding, excluding capital leases, at a weighted average interest rate of 4.47%.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

Results for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 included discrete items that were not part of the normal course of operations. The following tables present adjusted operating income, adjusted net earnings, and adjusted diluted EPS, which exclude the impact of these discrete items. These adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures, which are reconciled below to the most directly comparable financial measures in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that presenting its financial results adjusted for the impact of discrete items is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s management and provides a clearer perspective on the underlying performance of the Company.

Advertising

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 3%decrease in advertising revenues was principally driven by the absence of CBS’s broadcast of the NCAA Tournament finals, which was broadcast by Turner in 2016. Under the rights agreement with the NCAA, CBS and Turner alternate broadcasting both the semifinals and finals of the NCAA Tournament, with these games being broadcast by CBS in 2017. The decline in advertising also reflected the impact from the sales of internet businesses in China during 2015, partially offset by 2% growth in underlying network advertising revenues. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 15%increase in advertising revenues was driven by CBS’s broadcast of the Super Bowl, which is broadcast on the CBS Television Network once every three years through 2022 under the current contract; one additional NFL playoff game broadcast on CBS in 2016; and 7% growth in underlying network advertising. These increases were partially offset by the impact from the sales of internet businesses in China during 2015.

The Company recently completed the CBS Television Network’s upfront advertising sales (“Upfront”) for the 2016/2017 television broadcast season, which runs from the middle of September 2016 through the middle of September 2017. A significant portion of advertising spots for the CBS Television Network’s non-sports programming is sold during the Upfront each year. This year’s Upfront concluded with increases in pricing compared with the prior broadcast season, which is expected to benefit advertising revenues during the 2016/2017 broadcast season. However, overall advertising revenues for the Company will be dependent on ratings for its programming and market conditions, including demand in the scatter advertising market, which is when advertisers purchase the remaining advertising spots closer to the broadcast of the related programming. Additionally, in the second half of 2016, local advertising revenues are expected to benefit from political advertising spending associated with U.S. federal and state elections.

Content Licensing and Distribution

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 16%increase in content licensing and distribution revenues was driven by higher international television licensing, mainly from the sales of all episodes of five Star Trek series, as well as growth in domestic television licensing revenues. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 9%decrease in content licensing and distribution revenues reflects lower domestic television licensing revenues, as the first six months of 2015 included significant sales of NCIS and CSI. This decrease was partially offset by growth from international licensing of Star Trek series. For the remainder of 2016, the content and licensing distribution revenue comparison will continue to be impacted by fluctuations resulting from the timing of when Company-owned television series are made available for multiyear licensing agreements. Television license fee revenues are recognized at the beginning of the license period in which programs are made available to the licensee for exhibition.

Affiliate and Subscription Fees

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 3%decrease in affiliate and subscription fees reflects the benefit to 2015 from Showtime Networks’ distribution of the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao pay-per-view boxing event, which impacted the second quarter affiliate and subscription fees comparison by 21 percentage points. Underlying results reflect 44% growth in station affiliation fees and retransmission revenues, and revenues from new digital distribution platforms, including CBS All Access and Showtime Networks’ over-the-top service. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 5%increase in affiliate and subscription fees was driven by 43% growth in station affiliation fees and retransmission revenues, and revenues from new digital distribution platforms. These increases were partially offset by the impact from the previously mentioned pay-per-view boxing event. Over the next few years the Company expects to renew a significant portion of its agreements with station affiliates and

MVPDs. This, along with the Company’s new digital distribution initiatives, are expected to result in continued growth in affiliate and subscription fees.

International Revenues

The Company generated approximately 17% and 14% of its total revenues from international regions for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and generated approximately 14% and 15% of its total revenues from international regions for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Total Operating Expenses	$	4,217	100	%	$	4,049	100	%	$	168		4	%

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 20%decreasein programming expenses was driven by lower sports programming costs as a result of costs in 2015 associated with Showtime Networks’ distribution of the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao pay-per-view boxing event and CBS’s broadcast of the NCAA Tournament finals, which was broadcast by Turner in 2016. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 9%increase in programming expenses was primarily driven by increased sports programming costs as a result of additional NFL games broadcast on CBS in 2016, including Super Bowl 50, partially offset by the absence of the previously mentioned pay-per-view boxing event and lower costs for acquired television series as a result of a shift to a higher mix of internally developed television series.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 12% increase in production expenses was driven by higher costs associated with the increase in television licensing revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the 7%increase in production expenses was the result of increased investment in internally developed series and costs associated with the Super Bowl production in 2016, partially offset by lower costs associated with the decrease in television licensing revenues.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 17%increase in participation, distribution and royalty costs primarily reflects higher participations and residuals resulting from higher television licensing revenues. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 9%decrease in participation, distribution and royalty costs primarily reflects lower participations and residuals associated with lower television licensing revenues.

Segment Results of Operations

The Company presents operating income (loss) excluding restructuring charges, impairment charges, and other operating items, net, if any, (“Segment Operating Income”) as the primary measure of profit and loss for its operating segments in accordance with FASB guidance for segment reporting. The Company believes the presentation of Segment Operating Income is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view segment performance in a manner similar to the primary method used by the Company’s management and enhances their ability to understand the Company’s operating performance. The reconciliation of Segment Operating Income to the Company’s consolidated Net earnings is presented in Note 12 (Reportable Segments) to the consolidated financial statements.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 9%increase in revenues reflects 19% higher content licensing and distribution revenues driven by growth in international television licensing, mainly from the sales of all episodes of five Star Trek series. The revenue growth also reflects a 59% increase in affiliate and subscription fees, led by higher station affiliation fees, retransmission revenues and subscription growth for CBS All Access. Advertising revenues decreased 3% reflecting the absence of the broadcast of the NCAA Tournament finals on CBS in 2016 and the impact from the sales of internet businesses in China during 2015, partially offset by 2% growth in underlying network advertising revenues.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 34%increase in operating income was primarily driven by the growth in revenues. Restructuring charges for the second quarter of 2015 primarily reflected severance costs.

Additionally, affiliate and subscription fees grew 63% for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 as a result of higher station affiliation fees, retransmission revenues and subscription growth for CBS All Access. These increases were partially offset by lower content licensing and distribution revenues due to lower domestic licensing, as 2015 benefited from significant domestic licensing sales of NCIS and CSI, partially offset by growth in international licensing revenues from the sales of Star Trek series.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, revenues decreased 13%as the second quarter of 2015 benefited from the distribution of the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao boxing event, which was the highest-grossing pay-per-view event of all time. This boxing event negatively impacted the revenue comparison by 24 percentage points. Underlying results reflect higher revenues from the domestic and international licensing of Showtime original series, including House of Lies, and 5% growth in affiliate and subscription fees, driven by Showtime Networks’ over-the-top service. As of June 30, 2016 subscriptions totaled 77 million for Showtime Networks (including Showtime, The Movie Channel and Flix), 56 million for CBS Sports Network and 34 million for Smithsonian Networks.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 3%increase in operating income primarily reflects growth from the licensing of Showtime original series and Showtime Networks’ over-the-top service, partially offset by increased investment in original series.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 1%decrease in revenues was primarily driven by the absence of CBS’s broadcast of the NCAA Tournament finals, which was broadcast by Turner in 2016, and lower local radio advertising, partially offset by growth in retransmission revenues. Revenues for CBS Television Stations and CBS Radio each decreased 1%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the 7%increase in operating income reflects lower expenses as a result of restructuring activities in 2015, which more than offset the revenue decline. Restructuring charges of $43 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily reflected severance costs and costs associated with exiting contractual obligations at CBS Television Stations and CBS Radio.

In the second half of 2016, local advertising revenues are expected to benefit from higher political spending associated with U.S. federal and state elections.

For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 4%increase in revenues was driven by 8% growth at CBS Television Stations, reflecting the broadcast of Super Bowl 50 on CBS during the first quarter of 2016, higher political advertising sales and growth in retransmission revenues. This growth was partially offset by lower radio revenues, which decreased 2%.

For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the 16%increase in operating income was driven by the revenue growth and lower expenses resulting from restructuring activities in 2015.

Operating Activities. For the six months endedJune 30, 2016, the increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by growth in affiliate and subscription fees and higher advertising revenues, including the broadcast of Super Bowl 50, partially offset by increased investment in content and higher payments for income taxes.

Cash paid for income taxes for the six months endedJune 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,

Excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units, included in financing activities		(11		)		(82		)
Cash paid for income taxes		$	296			$	125

The increase in cash paid for income taxes was driven by the increase in pretax earnings, as well lower federal tax refunds applied during the six months endedJune 30, 2016.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow reflects the Company’s net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities before operating cash flow from discontinued operations and less capital expenditures. The Company’s calculation of free cash flow includes capital expenditures because investment in capital expenditures is a use of cash that is directly related to the Company’s operations. The Company’s net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management believes free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to the Company to service debt, make strategic acquisitions and investments, maintain its capital assets, satisfy its tax obligations, and fund ongoing operations and working capital needs. As a result, free cash flow is a significant measure of the Company’s ability to generate long-term value. It is useful for investors to know whether this ability is being enhanced or degraded as a result of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes the presentation of free cash flow is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to evaluate the cash generated from the Company’s underlying operations in a manner similar to the method used by management. Free cash flow is one of several components of incentive compensation targets for certain management personnel. In addition, free cash flow is a primary measure used externally by the Company’s investors, analysts and industry peers for purposes of valuation and comparison of the Company’s operating performance to other companies in its industry.

As free cash flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, free cash flow should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, either net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities as a measure of liquidity or net earnings as a measure of operating performance. Free cash flow, as the Company calculates it, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. In addition, free cash flow as a measure of liquidity has certain limitations, does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and is not necessarily a measure of the Company’s ability to fund its cash needs. When comparing free cash flow to net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions that are not reflected in free cash flow.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company’s net cash flow provided by operating activities to free cash flow.

Repurchase of Company Stock and Cash Dividends

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company repurchased 9.2 million shares of its Class B Common Stock under its share repurchase program for $500 million, at an average cost of $54.21 per share. During the six months endedJune 30,2016, the Company repurchased 19.5 million shares of its Class B Common Stock for $1.00 billion, at an average cost of $51.27 per share, leaving $1.00 billion of authorization at June 30, 2016.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Results of Operations and Financial Condition (Continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

On July 28, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved an increase to the Company’s share repurchase program to a total availability of $6.0 billion. Repurchases are expected to be funded by cash flows from operations and, as appropriate, with short-term borrowings, including commercial paper, and/or the issuance of long-term debt.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.15 on its Class A and Class B Common Stock, resulting in total dividends of $69 million, payable on July 1, 2016.

On July 28, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a 20% increase to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s Class A and Class B Common Stock from $.15 to $.18 per share, payable on October 1, 2016, to shareholders of record on September 9, 2016.

Capital Structure

The following table sets forth the Company’s debt.

	At			At
	June 30, 2016			December 31, 2015
Commercial paper		$	163		$	—
Senior debt (1.95% – 7.875% due 2016 – 2045) (a)		8,167			8,365
Obligations under capital leases		79			83
Total debt		8,409			8,448
Less commercial paper		163			—
Less current portion of long-term debt		23			222
Total long-term debt, net of current portion		$	8,223		$	8,226

(a) At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the senior debt balances included (i) a net unamortized discount of $43 million and $45 million, respectively, (ii) unamortized deferred financing costs of $42 million and $44 million, respectively, and (iii) an increase in the carrying value of the debt relating to previously settled fair value hedges of $11 million and $14 million, respectively. The face value of the Company’s senior debt was $8.24 billion and $8.44 billion at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

During July 2016, the Company issued $700 million of 2.90%senior notes due 2027. The Company is using the net proceeds from this issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of CBS Corp. Class B Common Stock and repayment of short-term borrowings, including commercial paper.

During January 2016, the Company repaid its $200 million of outstanding 7.625% senior debentures upon maturity.

Commercial Paper

At June 30, 2016, the Company had $163 million of outstanding commercial paper borrowings under its $2.5 billion commercial paper program at a weighted average interest rate of 0.72% and with maturities of less than 45 days. The Company had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings at December 31, 2015.

Credit Facility

During June 2016, the Company amended and restated its $2.5 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The amended Credit Facility expires in June 2021 and contains provisions that are substantially similar to the previous Credit Facility, which was due to expire in December 2019. The Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 4.5x at the end of each quarter as further

-48-

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Results of Operations and Financial Condition (Continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

described in the Credit Facility. At June 30, 2016, the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio was approximately 2.4x.

The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is the ratio of the Company’s indebtedness from continuing operations, adjusted to exclude certain capital lease obligations, at the end of a quarter, to the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four consecutive quarters. Consolidated EBITDA is defined in the Credit Facility as operating income plus interest income and before depreciation, amortization and certain other noncash items.

The Credit Facility is used for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2016, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and the remaining availability under the Credit Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, was $2.49 billion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company continually projects anticipated cash requirements for its operating, investing and financing needs as well as cash flows generated from operating activities available to meet these needs. The Company’s operating needs include, among other items, commitments for sports programming rights, television and film programming, talent contracts, operating leases, interest payments, and pension funding obligations. The Company’s investing and financing spending includes capital expenditures, share repurchases, dividends and principal payments on its outstanding indebtedness. The Company believes that its operating cash flows; cash and cash equivalents; borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, which had $2.49 billion of remaining availability at June 30, 2016; and access to capital markets are sufficient to fund its operating, investing and financing requirements for the next twelve months.

The Company’s funding for short-term and long-term obligations will come primarily from cash flows from operating activities. Any additional cash funding requirements are financed with short-term borrowings, including commercial paper, and long-term debt. To the extent that commercial paper is not available to the Company, the existing Credit Facility provides sufficient capacity to satisfy short-term borrowing needs.The Company routinely assesses its capital structure and opportunistically enters into transactions to lower its interest expense, which could result in a charge from the early extinguishment of debt.

Funding for the Company’s long-term debt obligations due over the next five years of $2.10 billion is expected to come from the Company’s ability to refinance its debt and cash generated from operating activities.

Legal Matters

General.    On an ongoing basis, the Company vigorously defends itself in numerous lawsuits and proceedings and responds to various investigations and inquiries from federal, state, local and international authorities (collectively, ‘‘litigation’’). Litigation may be brought against the Company without merit, is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict. However, based on its understanding and evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Company believes that the below-described legal matters and other litigation to which it is a party are not likely, in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Under the Separation Agreement between the Company and Viacom Inc., the Company and Viacom Inc. have agreed to defend and indemnify the other in certain litigation in which the Company and/or Viacom Inc. is named.

Claims Related to Former Businesses: Asbestos.    The Company is a defendant in lawsuits claiming various personal injuries related to asbestos and other materials, which allegedly occurred principally as a result of exposure caused by various products manufactured by Westinghouse, a predecessor, generally prior to the early 1970s. Westinghouse was neither a producer nor a manufacturer of asbestos. The Company is typically named as one of a large number of defendants in both state and federal cases. In the majority of asbestos lawsuits, the

-49-

Results of Operations and Financial Condition (Continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

plaintiffs have not identified which of the Company’s products is the basis of a claim. Claims against the Company in which a product has been identified principally relate to exposures allegedly caused by asbestos-containing insulating material in turbines sold for power-generation, industrial and marine use.

Claims are frequently filed and/or settled in groups, which may make the amount and timing of settlements, and the number of pending claims, subject to significant fluctuation from period to period. The Company does not report as pending those claims on inactive, stayed, deferred or similar dockets which some jurisdictions have established for claimants who allege minimal or no impairment. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had pending approximately 34,790 asbestos claims, as compared with approximately 36,030 as of December 31, 2015 and 38,000 as of June 30, 2015. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company received approximately 1,190 new claims and closed or moved to an inactive docket approximately 1,440 claims. The Company reports claims as closed when it becomes aware that a dismissal order has been entered by a court or when the Company has reached agreement with the claimants on the material terms of a settlement. Settlement costs depend on the seriousness of the injuries that form the basis of the claims, the quality of evidence supporting the claims and other factors. In 2015, as the result of an insurance settlement, insurance recoveries exceeded the Company’s after tax costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims by approximately $5 million. In 2014, the Company’s costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims after insurance and taxes were approximately $11 million. The Company’s costs for settlement and defense of asbestos claims may vary year to year and insurance proceeds are not always recovered in the same period as the insured portion of the expenses.

Filings include claims for individuals suffering from mesothelioma, a rare cancer, the risk of which is allegedly increased by exposure to asbestos; lung cancer, a cancer which may be caused by various factors, one of which is alleged to be asbestos exposure; other cancers, and conditions that are substantially less serious, including claims brought on behalf of individuals who are asymptomatic as to an allegedly asbestos-related disease. The predominant number of claims against the Company are non-cancer claims. The Company believes that its reserves and insurance are adequate to cover its asbestos liabilities. This belief is based upon many factors and assumptions, including the number of outstanding claims, estimated average cost per claim, the breakdown of claims by disease type, historic claim filings, costs per claim of resolution and the filing of new claims. While the number of asbestos claims filed against the Company has trended down in the past five to ten years and has remained flat in recent years, it is difficult to predict future asbestos liabilities, as events and circumstances may occur including, among others, the number and types of claims and average cost to resolve such claims, which could affect the Company’s estimate of its asbestos liabilities.

Other.    The Company from time to time receives claims from federal and state environmental regulatory agencies and other entities asserting that it is or may be liable for environmental cleanup costs and related damages principally relating to historical and predecessor operations of the Company. In addition, the Company from time to time receives personal injury claims including toxic tort and product liability claims (other than asbestos) arising from historical operations of the Company and its predecessors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The following updates the corresponding risk factor included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company Could Suffer Losses Due to Asset Impairment Charges for Goodwill, Intangible Assets, FCC Licenses and Programming

As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, based on the Company’s most recent annual impairment tests for goodwill and FCC licenses performed during the fourth quarter of 2015, the estimated fair value of the Company’s CBS Radio reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by less than 1%, the carrying value of FCC licenses in eighteen radio markets was equal to their respective fair values, and the carrying value of FCC licenses in four radio markets was within 10% of their respective estimated fair values. Any downward revisions to the estimated fair value of the CBS Radio reporting unit and/or these FCC licenses could cause the estimated fair value to fall below their respective carrying values, which could result in a noncash impairment charge. Any impairment charge for goodwill and/or FCC licenses could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported net earnings.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Company Purchases of Equity Securities

In November 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase $1.5 billion of the Company’s common stock in open market purchases or other types of transactions (including accelerated stock repurchases or privately negotiated transactions). Since then, various increases to such amount have been approved and announced, including a $3.0 billion increase to the amount available under such program on August 7, 2014. The program had $1.0 billion remaining as of June 30, 2016. On July 28, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved an increase to the share purchase program to a total availability of $6.0 billion.
