"Our strong third quarter results highlight the strength of our core business following the divestiture of five service areas.

"We are also now in a great position, given the significant reduction in our debt, to invest in growth and accelerate our broadband-first strategy."

"WOW!'s growth in high-speed data revenue from continuing operations, coupled with an increase in pro forma adjusted EBITDA and our strengthened balance sheet, brings our leverage ratio to a historic low of 2.6x," said John Rego, WOW!'s CFO.

On September 1, 2021 and November 1, 2021, the Company announced the completion of the sale of two and three of the five service areas, respectively.

Revenue

Total Revenue from continuing operations was $184.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, up $0.9 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020.

Total Subscription Revenue from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $170.3 million, up $1.3 million, or 1%, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The increase was driven by an increase in average revenue per unit ("ARPU") as HSD customers continue to purchase higher speed tiers; coupled with HSD and Video rate increases issued in 2021 and an increase in volume attributable exclusively to the addition of HSD subscribers. These increases were partially offset by a shift in service offering mix as the Company continues to experience a reduction in Video and Telephony RGUs.

Other Business Services Revenue from continuing operations totaled $5.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, down $0.2 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in data center revenue.

Other Revenue from continuing operations totaled $8.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, down $0.2 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2020, primarily due to decreases in line assurance revenue and service call fee revenue, partially offset by a slight increase in advertising revenue.

Costs and Expenses

Operating Expenses (excluding Depreciation and Amortization) from continuing operations totaled $93.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, down $6.3 million, or 6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2020 primarily due to lower direct expenses, specifically programming expense, which aligns with the reduction in Video RGUs between periods. Selling, General, and Administrative expenses from continuing operations totaled $44.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, up $4.6 million, or 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2020 primarily due to increases in marketing, compensation (including stock compensation), and professional service and legal expenses, partially offset by decreases in costs associated with digital transformation initiatives.

Net (Loss) Income

Net Loss from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $21.2 million as compared to $20.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA

Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $66.7 million, an increase of $3.8 million, compared to the corresponding period in 2020. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA margin was 36.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 as compared to 34.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Subscribers

WOW! reported Total Subscribers from continuing operations of 531,600 as of September 30, 2021, an increase of 6,800, or 1%, compared to September 30, 2020, up 1,000 compared to June 30, 2021. HSD RGUs totaled 509,500 as of September 30, 2021, an increase of 12,900, or 3%, compared to September 30, 2020, up 1,600 compared to June 30, 2021.

Edge-outs

Edge-out projects from continuing operations reached a total of 78,000 homes passed and 19,000 Subscribers since inception.

The 2019 Edge-out projects from continuing operations include 1,900 Subscribers, which represents 18.8% penetration on such nodes. The 2020 Edge-out projects from continuing operations include 700 Subscribers, which represents 20.6% penetration on such nodes. The 2021 Edge-out projects from continuing operations include 400 Subscribers, which represents 21.1% penetration on such nodes.

Capital Expenditures

Capital Expenditures from continuing operations totaled $40.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, representing a $5.9 million increase compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The slight increase is primarily due to an increase in expenditures related to customer premise equipment ("CPE") and network enhancements focused on increasing bandwidth capacity, standardization and reliability to meet the needs of our customers. Capital Expenditures from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 equates to 22% of Total Revenue from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Leverage

As of September 30, 2021, the total outstanding amount of long-term debt and finance lease obligations was $1.1 billion, and cash and cash equivalents were $59.6 million. Total Net Leverage as of September 30, 2021, was 2.6X on a LTM Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA basis and undrawn revolver capacity totaled $270.7 million.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release that are not historical facts contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements represent our goals, beliefs, plans and expectations about our prospects for the future and other future events. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical fact and can be identified by terms such as "may," "intend," "might," "will," "should," "could," "would," "anticipate," "expect," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "project," "predict," "potential," or the negative of these terms. Although these forward-looking statements reflect our good-faith belief and reasonable judgment based on current information, these statements are qualified by important factors, many of which are beyond our control that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors and other risks that could cause our actual results to differ materially are set forth in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and other reports subsequently filed with the SEC. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made as of the date hereof or the date specified herein, based on information available to us as of such date. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release, including Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. These terms, as defined herein, are not intended to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These terms may vary from the use of similar terms by other companies in our industry due to different methods of calculation and therefore are not necessarily comparable.

We believe that these non-GAAP measures enhance an investor's understanding of our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with useful information for assessing the comparability between periods of our ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt and to undertake Capital Expenditures. We use these non-GAAP measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors. We believe these non-GAAP measures are measures commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate to overall business performance and is defined by WOW! as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (including impairments), impairment losses on intangibles and goodwill, write-off of any asset, loss on early extinguishment of debt, integration and restructuring expenses and all non–cash charges and expenses (including stock compensation expense) and certain other income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA takes into account the recent sales of five service areas as though such transactions had occurred prior to the periods presented.

Free Cash Flow is defined as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities less Capital Expenditures. Free Cash Flow presents the cash generated or used by the business in a given period.

Refer to "Reconciliations of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures" and the accompanying tables below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income, and Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow which are most directly comparable to their corresponding GAAP financial measure.

Subscriber Information

The Company uses the terms defined below throughout this release.

Homes passed are reported as the number of serviceable addresses, such as single residence homes, apartments and condominium units, and businesses passed by our broadband network and listed in our database.

We deliver multiple services to our customers, as such we report Total Subscribers as the number of Subscribers who receive at least one of our HSD, Video or Telephony services, without regard to which or how many services they subscribe. We define each of the individual HSD Subscribers, Video Subscribers and Telephony Subscribers as a Revenue Generating Unit ("RGU").

While we take appropriate steps to ensure subscriber information is presented on a consistent and accurate basis at any given balance sheet date, we periodically review our policies in light of the variability we may encounter across our different markets due to the nature and pricing of products and services and billing systems. Accordingly, we may from time to time make appropriate adjustments to our subscriber information based on such reviews.
