NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:TWX) today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bewkes said: “Across Time Warner, we’re continuing to make progress on our long-term goals, and we remain on track to meet our financial objectives for the year. This quarter, our results highlight the strength and potential of our networks and television production businesses, which generate the bulk of our revenues and earnings. We saw terrific performance at most of the Turner networks. For instance, TNT was the #1 network on ad-supported cable, bolstered by another great NBA season and the introduction of original hits like Dallas. TBS was up 30% in primetime in its key demographic in the quarter, thanks in part to the success of The Big Bang Theory, which remains the #1 sitcom on ad-supported cable. HBO’s original series like True Blood and Game of Thrones are continuing to see strong viewership. At the same time, HBO’s programming is continuing to garner critical acclaim, including receiving 81 Primetime Emmy nominations, the most of any network for the twelfth year in a row.”
Mr. Bewkes added: “On the television production side, it was another standout quarter for Warner Bros. During the recent upfront buying season, Warner Bros. secured orders from the broadcast networks for 16 returning series and 9 new shows, making it the top producer of network TV primetime programming once again. And we’ve recently successfully syndicated a number of series, both to traditional and new SVOD buyers. Finally, reflecting our continuing commitment to shareholder returns and our confidence in our competitive position and growth prospects, this year we’ve returned about $2.0 billion of capital in the form of share repurchases and dividends.”
Company Results
Revenues decreased 4% to $6.7 billion and Adjusted Operating Income declined 5% to $1.2 billion in the second quarter of 2012 due to growth at the Networks segment offset by declines at the Film and TV Entertainment and Publishing segments as well as a significant year-over-year increase in intersegment eliminations. Adjusted Operating Income margins were 18% for the second quarter of both 2012 and 2011. Operating Income decreased 16% to $1.1 billion, while Operating Income margins were 16% for the second quarter of 2012 compared to 18% for the prior year quarter.
In the second quarter, the Company posted Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Common Share (“Adjusted EPS”) of $0.59 versus $0.60 for the year-ago quarter. Diluted Income per Common Share was $0.44 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $0.59 for last year’s second quarter.
For the first six months of 2012, Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing Operations reached $759 million and Free Cash Flow totaled $520 million. As of June 30, 2012, Net Debt was $17.4 billion, up from $16.0 billion at the end of 2011, due to share repurchases and dividends, offset by the generation of Free Cash Flow.

Stock Repurchase Program Update
In January 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $4.0 billion in stock repurchases.
From January 1, 2012 through July 27, 2012, the Company repurchased approximately 40 million shares of common stock for approximately $1.5 billion. These amounts reflect the purchase of 16 million shares of common stock for $566 million since the amounts reported in the Company’s first quarter earnings release issued on May 2, 2012.

Presented below is a discussion of the performance of Time Warner’s segments for the second quarter of 2012. Unless otherwise noted, the dollar amounts in parentheses represent year-over-year changes.
NETWORKS (Turner Broadcasting and HBO)
Revenues increased 4% ($147 million) to $3.6 billion, with increases of 6% ($124 million) in Subscription revenues and 2% ($26 million) in Advertising revenues, partly offset by a decline of 5% ($14 million) in Content revenues. Subscription revenues benefitted primarily from higher domestic rates and, to a lesser extent, international growth and an increase in subscribers at HBO. The increase in Advertising revenues was driven by growth at Turner’s domestic entertainment networks, principally due to higher pricing and an increase in the number of NBA games. This increase was offset in part by declines at Turner’s domestic news networks and international entertainment networks, as well as the timing of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship events (the “NCAA Tournament”) and the transfer of management of SI.com and Golf.com from Turner to Time Inc. during the second quarter of 2012. Content revenues declined due to lower licensing revenues.
Adjusted Operating Income grew 9% ($95 million) to $1.1 billion, reflecting higher revenues, partly offset by increased expenses, including higher programming costs. Programming costs grew 3%, due primarily to higher costs for sports programming and originals. The increase in sports programming costs was due in part to an increase in the number of NBA games, offset partly by the timing of the NCAA Tournament. Operating Income declined 5% ($50 million) to $974 million. The current year period included $147 million in charges related to the shutdown of Turner’s general entertainment network, Imagine, in India and TNT television operations in Turkey.
TNT was ad-supported cable’s #1 network with adults 18-49 in primetime in the second quarter of 2012. Perception and Dallas on TNT are ad-supported cable’s #1 and #2 new series year-to-date among total viewers, respectively. TNT’s 2011/2012 NBA regular-season coverage was up among viewers and households for the fifth straight year, making it the highest-rated and most-viewed in the network’s 28-year history with the league. TBS averaged 1.8 million primetime total viewers in the second quarter of 2012, up 37% over last year, and The Big Bang Theory ranked as ad-supported cable’s #1 sitcom in the quarter. In addition, Adult Swim again ranked #1 among ad-supported cable networks for key adult demographics in total day delivery in the quarter.
HBO received 81 Primetime Emmy nominations in July, the most for any network for the twelfth year in a row, including Outstanding Drama Series nominations for Boardwalk Empire and Game of Thrones. To date, True Blood is averaging over 11 million total viewers per episode in its fifth season, and its Sunday night premieres are the highest rated on premium and ad-supported cable. Game of Thrones also averaged over 11 million total viewers per episode in its recently concluded second season, up more than 20% over its first season. HBO recently added Amazon’s Kindle Fire and Android tablets to the devices supporting HBO GO, its authenticated online video service.
FILM AND TV ENTERTAINMENT (Warner Bros.)
Revenues decreased 8% ($233 million) to $2.6 billion, due mainly to difficult comparisons to the year-ago period. The prior year quarter included revenues from the theatrical release of The Hangover Part II; the home entertainment release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1; and the videogame releases of Mortal Kombat 9 and LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game. These declines were offset in part by higher television licensing revenues, which benefitted from the initial cable availability of The Mentalist, and higher initial telecast fees.
Adjusted Operating Income declined 16% ($26 million) to $137 million, due primarily to lower revenues, offset partially by lower pre-release advertising expenses and lower theatrical valuation adjustments. Operating Income was 13% lower ($20 million) at $134 million.
Since its opening on July 20 through July 29, The Dark Knight Rises has grossed over $535 million worldwide. In addition, Magic Mike has grossed over $100 million at the domestic box office from its initial release in June through July 29, 2012. During the recent upfronts, Warner Bros. Television Group led all studios with orders for 16 returning series and 9 new series on the U.S. broadcast networks’ primetime schedules for the 2012-2013 television season, making it the largest provider of network TV programming for the 21st time in the past 26 years. Warner Bros. also sold the off-network rights to its hit shows 2 Broke Girls and Mike & Molly.
PUBLISHING (Time Inc.)
Revenues declined 9% ($88 million) to $858 million, reflecting declines of 7% ($36 million) in Advertising revenues, 11% ($36 million) in Subscription revenues and 13% ($11 million) in Other revenues. Advertising revenues decreased due to lower domestic magazine advertising revenues. The decrease in Subscription revenues was due primarily to lower worldwide newsstand revenues and domestic subscription sales. In addition, the prior year’s second quarter benefitted from strong special issues. During the quarter, Time Inc. assumed management of SI.com and Golf.com from Turner Broadcasting, which benefitted Advertising revenues and negatively impacted Other revenues by similar amounts.
Operating Income decreased 43% ($72 million) to $97 million, primarily reflecting the decline in domestic revenues.
During the first half of 2012, Time Inc. maintained its leading share of overall domestic magazine advertising with 21.5% (Publishers Information Bureau data).
CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME AND PER SHARE RESULTS
Adjusted EPS was $0.59 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $0.60 in last year’s second quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects lower Adjusted Operating Income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company reported Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. shareholders of $430 million, or $0.44 per diluted common share. This compares to Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. shareholders in 2011’s second quarter of $638 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share.
For the second quarter of 2012 and 2011, the Company reported Net Income of $429 million and $637 million, respectively.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Company utilizes Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted Operating Income margin, among other measures, to evaluate the performance of its businesses. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is Operating Income (Loss) excluding the impact of noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets; gains and losses on operating assets; gains and losses recognized in connection with pension plan curtailments, settlements or termination benefits; external costs related to mergers, acquisitions or dispositions, as well as contingent consideration related to such transactions, to the extent such costs are expensed; and amounts related to securities litigation and government investigations. Adjusted Operating Income margin is defined as Adjusted Operating Income divided by Revenues. These measures are considered important indicators of the operational strength of the Company’s businesses.
Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders is Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding noncash impairments of goodwill, intangible and fixed assets and investments; gains and losses on operating assets, liabilities and investments; gains and losses recognized in connection with pension plan curtailments, settlements or termination benefits; external costs related to mergers, acquisitions, investments or dispositions, as well as contingent consideration related to such transactions, to the extent such costs are expensed; amounts related to securities litigation and government investigations; and amounts attributable to businesses classified as discontinued operations, as well as the impact of taxes and noncontrolling interests on the above items. Similarly, Adjusted EPS is Diluted Net Income per Common Share attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders excluding the above items.
Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders and Adjusted EPS are considered important indicators of the operational strength of the Company’s businesses as these measures eliminate amounts that do not reflect the fundamental performance of the Company’s businesses. The Company utilizes Adjusted EPS, among other measures, to evaluate the performance of its businesses both on an absolute basis and relative to its peers and the broader market. Many investors also use an adjusted EPS measure as a common basis for comparing the performance of different companies. Some limitations of Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Operating Income margin, Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders and Adjusted EPS are that they do not reflect certain charges that affect the operating results of the Company’s businesses and they involve judgment as to whether items affect fundamental operating performance.
Free Cash Flow is Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing Operations plus payments related to securities litigation and government investigations (net of any insurance recoveries), external costs related to mergers, acquisitions, investments or dispositions, to the extent such costs are expensed, and excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options, less capital expenditures, principal payments on capital leases and partnership distributions, if any. The Company uses Free Cash Flow to evaluate its businesses and this measure is considered an important indicator of the Company’s liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt, make strategic investments, pay dividends to common shareholders and repurchase stock. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect payments made in connection with securities litigation and government investigations, which reduce liquidity.
A general limitation of these measures is that they are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation and excluded items. Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s Operating Income (Loss), Net Income attributable to Time Warner Inc. common shareholders, Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share and various cash flow measures (e.g., Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing Operations), as well as other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
