The Transaction Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, Charter, A/N and Cox Enterprises will enter into the amended stockholders agreement, which will amend and restate in its entirety the existing stockholders agreement. If the Liberty Broadband Combination is completed, the existing stockholders agreement, which sets forth, among other things, certain of Liberty Broadband’s governance rights with respect to Charter, will terminate with respect to Liberty Broadband. The Liberty Broadband side letter further provides that Liberty Broadband will cause the three Liberty Broadband designees serving on the Board of Directors of Charter to resign effective immediately prior to the effective time of the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination.

Based on Charter’s share count as of December 31, 2025, Charter expects that Cox Enterprises will own approximately 25.1% of the combined entity’s diluted shares outstanding, on an as-exchanged, as-converted basis and assuming the contemporaneous closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination. Pursuant to the amended stockholders agreement and the amended certificate of incorporation, the size of the Board of Directors of Charter will continue to be fixed at 13 directors, and at the Closing, the directors then serving as A/N’s designees will continue to serve on the Board of Directors of Charter and three designees selected by Cox Enterprises (with the prior approval of Charter (not to be unreasonably withheld)) will become members of the Board of Directors of Charter. Thereafter, each of Cox Enterprises and A/N will be entitled to designate up to three nominees to be elected to the Board of Directors of Charter provided that each maintains certain specified voting or equity ownership thresholds. Cox Enterprises and A/N will be required to vote (subject to the applicable voting cap) their respective shares of Charter common stock for the director nominees nominated by the nominating committee of the Board of Directors of Charter, including the respective designees of Cox Enterprises and A/N, and against any other nominees, except that, with respect to the directors that were not designated by either Cox Enterprises or A/N (the “Unaffiliated Directors”), Cox Enterprises and A/N must instead vote in the same proportion as the voting securities are voted by stockholders other than Cox Enterprises and A/N or any group (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which includes any of them are voted, if doing so would cause a different outcome with respect to the Unaffiliated Directors. Cox Enterprises and A/N also will have certain committee designation and other governance rights. Additionally, the amended stockholders agreement will provide that each of Cox Enterprises and A/N will be subject to certain limits on acquisitions of Charter shares (30% in the case of Cox Enterprises; 19% in the case of A/N). In addition, any shares owned by Cox Enterprises or A/N in excess of its applicable voting cap (30% in the case of Cox Enterprises; 15% in the case of A/N) must be voted in proportion to the public stockholders of Charter, other than with respect to certain excluded matters.

The amended stockholders agreement will also provide that at the Closing, Alexander C. Taylor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cox Enterprises, will serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Charter for an initial three-year term (unless Mr. Taylor ceases to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of Charter prior thereto). The lead independent director of the Board of Directors of Charter at the Closing will be Eric L. Zinterhofer, current Non-executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of Charter. Following Mr. Taylor’s term as Chairman, the Board of Directors of Charter will return to its normal annual process. Additionally, following Mr. Taylor’s term as Chairman, Christopher L. Winfrey, the Chief Executive Officer of Charter, will serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Charter; provided that if Mr. Winfrey is no longer a member of the Board of Directors of Charter or is unwilling to serve as Chairman, then Mr. Zinterhofer instead will serve as Chairman (subject to his continued membership on the Board of Directors of Charter and willingness to serve).

At the Closing, Charter will amend its certificate of incorporation and bylaws in order to, among other things, reflect the agreed-upon governance terms to be included in the amended stockholders agreement.

31

As a result of their rights under the amended stockholders agreement and their significant equity and voting stakes in Charter, Cox Enterprises and/or A/N, who may have interests different from those of other stockholders, will be able to exercise substantial influence over certain matters relating to the governance of Charter, including the approval of significant corporate actions, such as mergers and other business combination transactions.

The amended stockholders agreement will provide A/N and Cox Enterprises with preemptive rights with respect to issuances of Charter equity in connection with certain transactions, and in the event that A/N or Cox Enterprises exercises these rights, holders of Charter Class A common stock may experience further dilution.

The amended stockholders agreement will provide that after the Closing, if Charter proposes to issue any equity securities of Charter in a capital raising transaction, each of Cox Enterprises and A/N (for so long as each party’s equity interest in Charter is equal to or greater than 10%), will have the right to purchase, in whole or in part, for cash a number of such securities that will be determined based on such investor’s pro rata equity interest in Charter. The amended stockholders agreement will define a capital raising transaction as any offering of shares of Charter Class A common stock (or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Charter Class A common stock) for cash, whether registered under the Securities Act or otherwise (other than pursuant to a stockholders rights plan).

As a result, if Cox Enterprises and/or A/N elect to exercise their preemptive rights, (i) these parties would not experience the dilution experienced by the other holders of Charter Class A common stock, and (ii) such other holders of Charter Class A common stock may experience further dilution of their interest in Charter upon such exercise.

If we are not able to successfully integrate Cox Communications’ business within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated cost savings and other benefits of the Cox Transactions may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. In such circumstances, in the event the Cox Transactions are completed, we may not perform as expected and the value of the Charter Class A common stock may be adversely affected.

Charter and Cox Communications have operated and, until completion of the Cox Transactions will continue to operate, independently, and there can be no assurances that their businesses can be integrated successfully. After the consummation of the Cox Transactions the combined company will have significantly more systems, assets, investments, businesses, customers and employees than each company did prior to the Cox Transactions. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key Charter and/or Cox Communications employees, the loss of subscribers and customers, the disruption of the companies’ ongoing businesses or unexpected integration issues, higher than expected integration costs and an overall post-completion integration process that takes longer than originally anticipated. The process of integrating Cox Communications with the businesses Charter operated prior to the Cox Transactions will require significant capital expenditures and the expansion of certain operations and operating and financial systems. Management of each company will be required to devote a significant amount of time and attention to the integration process before the Cox Transactions are completed. There is a significant degree of difficulty and management involvement inherent in that process. These difficulties include:

• integrating the companies’ operations and corporate functions;
• integrating the companies’ technologies, networks and customer service platforms;
• integrating and unifying the product offerings and services available to customers;
• harmonizing the companies’ operating practices, employee development and compensation programs, internal controls and other policies, procedures and processes;
• maintaining existing relationships and agreements with customers, providers, programmers and other vendors and avoiding delays in entering into new agreements with prospective customers, providers and vendors;
• addressing possible differences in business backgrounds, corporate cultures and management philosophies;
• consolidating the companies’ administrative and information technology infrastructure;
• coordinating programming and marketing efforts;
• coordinating geographically dispersed organizations;
• integrating information, purchasing, provisioning, accounting, finance, sales, billing, payroll, reporting and regulatory compliance systems;
• integrating and unifying the product offerings and services available to customers, including customer premise equipment and video user interfaces;
• managing a larger company than before the completion of the Cox Transactions; and
• attracting and retaining the necessary personnel associated with the acquired assets.

32

Even if the new businesses are successfully integrated, it may not be possible to realize the benefits that are expected to result from the Cox Transactions, or realize these benefits within the time frame that is expected. For example, the elimination of duplicative costs may not be possible or may take longer than anticipated, or the benefits from the Cox Transactions may be offset by costs incurred or delays in integrating the businesses and increased operating costs. If the combined company fails to realize the anticipated benefits from the Cox Transactions, its liquidity, results of operations, financial condition and/or share price may be adversely affected. In addition, at times, the attention of certain members of Charter’s and/or Cox Communications’ management and resources may be focused on the completion of the Cox Transactions and the integration of the businesses and diverted from day-to-day business operations, which may disrupt each company’s business and the business of the combined company.

The market price of Charter Class A common stock may decline as a result of the Cox Transactions.

The market price of Charter Class A common stock may decline as a result of the Cox Transactions if, among other things, the costs of the Cox Transactions are greater than expected, we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the Cox Transactions as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial or industry analysts or the effect of the Cox Transactions on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows is not consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts. Any of these events may make it more difficult for Charter to sell equity or equity-related securities and have an adverse impact on the price of Charter Class A common stock.

The Cox Transactions raise other risks.

The pending Cox Transactions raise additional risks not described above. For additional information, see the definitive proxy statement with respect to the Cox Transactions, filed by Charter on July 2, 2025, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Where You Can Find More Information” included therein.

Risks Related to the Liberty Broadband Combination

The Liberty Broadband Combination is subject to conditions, some or all of which may not be satisfied, or completed on a timely basis, if at all. Failure to complete the Liberty Broadband Combination could have material adverse effects on us.

The completion of the Liberty Broadband Combination is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, (i) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of Liberty Broadband Series A common stock, Liberty Broadband Series B common stock and Liberty Broadband preferred stock entitled to vote on the Liberty Broadband merger proposal at the Liberty Broadband special meeting, voting together as a single class; (ii) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of Liberty Broadband Series A common stock, Liberty Broadband Series B common stock and Liberty Broadband preferred stock entitled to vote on the Liberty Broadband merger proposal at the Liberty Broadband special meeting, beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Liberty Broadband stockholders (other than certain affiliated stockholders), voting together as a single class, which condition cannot be waived; (iii) the approval of the share issuance proposal by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of Charter common stock at the Charter special meeting; (iv) the approval of the Charter merger proposal by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of Charter common stock entitled to vote on the proposal at the Charter special meeting, beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Charter stockholders (other than certain affiliated stockholders), voting together as a single class, which condition cannot be waived; (v) to the extent applicable, any waiting period (and any extension thereof), and any commitments by the parties not to close before a certain date under a timing agreement entered into with a governmental authority, in each case, in respect of the Liberty Broadband Combination or the conversion of the Liberty Broadband capital stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement under the HSR Act having expired or been granted early termination; (vi) no stop order or proceedings seeking a stop order having been initiated by the SEC and not rescinded with respect to the registration statement on Form S-4, which contains a definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus with respect to the Liberty Broadband Combination, filed by Charter on January 22, 2025; (vii) authorization of listing on the Nasdaq of the shares of Charter Class A common stock and Charter rollover preferred stock to be issued in connection with the Merger; (viii) the absence of any law, order, or other legal restraint or prohibition, entered, enacted, promulgated, enforced or issued by any court or other governmental authority of competent jurisdiction, which prevents, prohibits, renders illegal or enjoins the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ix) the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement, subject to certain materiality qualifications; (x) each party’s performance, in all material respects, with its covenants required to be performed by it under the Merger Agreement prior to the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination; (xi) in respect of Charter’s obligation to effect the closing, the completion of the GCI Divestiture; and

33

(xii) each party’s receipt of a tax opinion, to the effect that, inter alia, the Liberty Broadband Combination will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

While the parties have agreed in the Merger Agreement to use reasonable best efforts to satisfy the closing conditions, the parties may not be successful in their efforts to do so. The failure to satisfy all of the required conditions could delay the completion of the Liberty Broadband Combination for a significant period of time or prevent completion from occurring at all. Any delay in completing the Liberty Broadband Combination could cause Charter not to realize some or all of the benefits, or realize them on a different timeline than expected, that Charter expects to achieve if the Liberty Broadband Combination is successfully completed within the expected timeframe. There can be no assurance that the conditions in the Merger Agreement will be satisfied or (to the extent permitted) waived or that the Liberty Broadband Combination will be completed. In addition, subject to limited exceptions, either Charter or Liberty Broadband may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Liberty Broadband Combination has not been consummated by August 31, 2027 or such other date as mutually agreed.

If the Liberty Broadband Combination is not completed, we may be materially adversely affected, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Liberty Broadband Combination, and we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

• the market price of Charter common stock could decline;
• we could owe a substantial termination fee to Liberty Broadband under certain circumstances;
• if the Merger Agreement is terminated and we seek another business combination, we may not find a party willing to enter into a transaction on terms comparable to or more attractive than the terms agreed to in the Merger Agreement;
• time and resources, financial and other, committed by us and our subsidiaries’ management to matters relating to the Liberty Broadband Combination could otherwise have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities;
• we and our subsidiaries may experience negative reactions from the financial markets or from our customers, suppliers, regulators or employees;
• we will be required to pay our costs relating to the Liberty Broadband Combination, such as legal, accounting, financial advisory, filing, printing and mailing fees, whether or not the Liberty Broadband Combination is completed;
• we are subject to restrictions on the conduct of our business prior to the effective time of the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination, as set forth in the Merger Agreement, which may prevent us from making certain acquisitions or taking other actions during the pendency of the Liberty Broadband Combination; and
• reputational harm due to the adverse perception of any failure to successfully complete the Liberty Broadband Combination.

In addition, if the Liberty Broadband Combination is not completed, we could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Liberty Broadband Combination or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against us to perform our obligations under the Merger Agreement. Any of these risks could materially and adversely impact our financial condition, financial results and stock price.

We are subject to contractual restrictions while the Liberty Broadband Combination is pending, which could adversely affect our business and operations.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Charter is subject to a limited set of restrictions on the conduct of its business prior to the effective time of the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination. Such limitations may affect our ability to execute certain of our business strategies, including the ability in certain cases to amend our organizational documents, issue shares of capital stock or pay extraordinary dividends or distributions, which could adversely affect us prior to the effective time of the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination. Each of the risks described above may be exacerbated by delays or other adverse developments with respect to the completion of the Liberty Broadband Combination.

The announcement and pendency of the Liberty Broadband Combination could divert the attention of management and cause disruptions in our business, which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Our management may be required to divert a disproportionate amount of attention away from our day-to-day activities and operations and devote time and effort to consummating the Liberty Broadband Combination. The risks, and adverse effects, of such disruptions and diversions could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Liberty Broadband Combination. These factors could adversely affect our financial position or results of operations, regardless of whether the Liberty Broadband Combination is completed.

34

We will incur direct and indirect costs as a result of the Liberty Broadband Combination.

We will incur substantial expenses in connection with and as a result of completing the Liberty Broadband Combination, including advisory, legal and other transaction costs, and, following the completion of the Liberty Broadband Combination, we expect to incur additional expenses in connection with combining the companies. A majority of these costs have already been incurred or will be incurred regardless of whether the Liberty Broadband Combination is completed. Factors beyond our control could affect the total amount or timing of these expenses, many of which, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately. Our management continues to assess the magnitude of these costs, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in connection with the Liberty Broadband Combination. Although we expect that the realization of benefits related to the Liberty Broadband Combination will offset such costs and expenses over time, no assurances can be made that this net benefit will be achieved in the near term, or at all.

If repurchases of Liberty Broadband’s shares of Charter Class A common stock during the pendency of the Liberty Broadband Combination are not consummated on the agreed terms, or otherwise fail to meet the intended objectives, there could be adverse effects on the companies and the Liberty Broadband Combination.

The Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment modifies the terms set forth in the existing letter agreement with respect to Liberty Broadband’s participation in Charter’s share repurchase program during the pendency of the Liberty Broadband Combination. The repurchases of Liberty Broadband’s shares of Charter Class A common stock during such period are intended to facilitate the repayment by Liberty Broadband of certain of its outstanding indebtedness and to allow Liberty Broadband to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund its ongoing operations during the pendency of the Liberty Broadband Combination. If the repurchases are not consummated on the agreed terms, or otherwise fail to meet the intended objectives, there could be adverse effects on the financial position of each of Liberty Broadband and Charter and on the Liberty Broadband Combination.

Charter may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the Liberty Broadband Combination or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected.

The full benefits of the Liberty Broadband Combination may not be realized as expected or may not be achieved within the anticipated time frame, or at all. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Liberty Broadband Combination could cause dilution to our earnings per share, decrease or delay the expected accretive effect of the Liberty Broadband Combination, and negatively impact the price of our common stock. In addition, there may be liabilities that Charter underestimated or did not discover in the course of performing its due diligence investigation of Liberty Broadband.

The Liberty Broadband Combination raises other risks.

The pending Liberty Broadband Combination raises additional risks not described above. For additional information, see the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus with respect to the Liberty Broadband Combination, filed by Charter on January 22, 2025, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Where You Can Find More Information” included therein.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments .

None.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity .

Risk Management and Strategy

Cybersecurity risks are classified as a Tier 1 risk within our enterprise risk management program. We are committed to protecting the security and integrity of our systems, networks, databases and applications. We routinely invest to develop and implement numerous cybersecurity programs and processes, including risk management and assessment programs, security and event monitoring capabilities, detailed incident response plans, and other advanced detection, prevention and protection capabilities, including practices and tools to monitor and mitigate insider threats. We regularly assess cybersecurity risks to identify and enumerate threats to us and vulnerabilities these threats can exploit to adversely impact our business operations. Regular reviews of these risks and vulnerabilities drive our investment in new controls and technologies. In some instances, we engage third parties to conduct or assist us with conducting cybersecurity risk assessments.

35

Our cybersecurity program employs various risk-tracking tools, industry data, monitoring, detection and response tools, vulnerability scanning, security dashboards and scorecards and other tools to support our continued evaluation of cybersecurity threats and regulatory requirements. Our cybersecurity program addresses the continuously evolving and extensive attack vectors and methods through layered security controls informed by constant threat analysis. Threats include a wide variety of perpetrators aiming for political, personal or financial gain, utilizing a broad set of tactics including ransomware, advanced malware, DDoS, account takeover, phishing/SMSing, sabatoge and social engineering, among others. These risks threaten our internal systems as well as third-party systems that we use and rely upon for the delivery of services and support of our operations. Our risk mitigation techniques include least privileged access, network segmentation, deployment of enhanced detection tools across our network, systems, databases, and applications and monitoring compliance with security standards all based on a risk-based approach.

Various security standards provide guidance to telecommunications companies in order to help identify and mitigate cybersecurity risks, including the voluntary framework released by the National Institute for Standards and Technology (“NIST”) in 2014 and updated in 2018 and 2024, in cooperation with other federal agencies and owners and operators of U.S. critical infrastructure. The NIST cybersecurity framework provides a prioritized and flexible model for organizations to identify and manage cyber risks inherent to their business. Our security infrastructure is comprised of multiple security capabilities designed with a defense-in-depth model informed by the NIST cybersecurity framework, as well as a variety of other industry standards and best practices. The risk-based approach of the NIST cybersecurity framework has enabled us to implement cybersecurity programs tailored to our particular network architectures, customer environments and institutional resources.

As part of our cybersecurity risk management program, we participate in a variety of industry, governmental, and public-private information sharing channels. While these relationships enhance our situational awareness and provide avenues for cybersecurity information sharing, we may not receive complete or real-time information about all cybersecurity threats or vulnerabilities, including in instances where governmental entities or other external partners are unable to share data due to legal, operational, or security considerations. As a result, there may be circumstances in which our visibility into certain threat vectors is inherently limited. Our governance framework accounts for these constraints by incorporating layered monitoring, independent threat intelligence sources, and escalation protocols designed to mitigate potential lack of visibility and support timely decision-making associated with cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities.

Our cybersecurity risk management program also attempts to assess third-party vendor, service provider, business partner and supply chain risk management issues. Our efforts aim to better understand the cybersecurity posture of our third-party vendors, service providers, business partners and suppliers by analyzing their cybersecurity risk management programs and results. Our third-party cybersecurity risk management processes include reviewing and revising our service provider and vendor management programs and the related agreements to require prompt notification of cyber incidents, outages and incidents to facilitate timely assessment, disclosure and action. Generally, our agreements require our third-party providers to abide by specific privacy, confidentiality and security processes, particularly for third-party data-processing activities. For vendors that offer software as a service solutions involving personal information, our third-party risk management program generally requires third-party attestation of their security practices such as a System and Organization Controls 2 report or ISO27001 certification. Our due diligence and selection processes also require third parties to complete a cybersecurity and data privacy questionnaire that includes questions about contractor track record. Our third-party security reviews are limited by their disclosures and specific negotiated contract terms; therefore, a risk-based approach is used in making vendor and contractual decisions based on those disclosures and the totality of the circumstances, such as whether the third party will have access to personal information or our network.

As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations and financial condition. For further discussion of cybersecurity risks, see “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – Various events could disrupt or result in unauthorized access to our networks, information systems or properties and could impair our operating activities and negatively impact our reputation and financial results.”

Governance

Our organizational objectives are aligned to address our cybersecurity risks and management plays a pivotal role in assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. Management’s role in assessing and managing material cybersecurity risks includes various management positions and committees responsible for assessing such risks. Our internal processes require escalation of material cybersecurity risks to our executive leadership and the Board of Directors of Charter , as well as management and committees who are tasked with the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. These processes provide guidance for consistent and effective incident handling and response and set standards for

36

internal notifications and escalations, as well as external notification considerations with respect to a cybersecurity event or incident requiring disclosure or notification to a state and/or federal agency or affected customers.

T he Board of Directors of Charter has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of our privacy and data security, including cybersecurity, risk exposures, policies and practices, including the steps management have taken to detect, monitor and control such risks and the potential impact of those exposures on our business, financial results, operations and reputation. Charter's Audit Committee receives quarterly updates on the enterprise risk management program, including information on cybersecurity risks and initiatives undertaken to identify, assess and mitigate such risks. A full cybersecurity review is conducted twice yearly with the Audit Committee and annually with the Board of Directors of Charter . This cybersecurity reporting may include threat and incident reporting, vulnerability detection reporting, risk mitigation metrics, systems and security operations updates or internal audit observations, if applicable.

We have a unified cybersecurity leadership team, composed of members of our Security Executive Steering Committee (“Security ESC”) to oversee implementation of appropriate cybersecurity protections and promote accountability. The Security ESC is led by senior executives in our technology organization and is comprised of senior executive leaders across the organization with the goal of driving cybersecurity focus through not just technical teams, but the entire business. The Security ESC reviews and evaluates current cyber threats and risks and improvements to our program and provides quarterly updates to the Chief Executive Officer as well as ad hoc updates on urgent matters. We also have a Cyber Security Council (“CSC”) and Security Operations Steering Committee that, under the direction of the Security ESC, collectively focus on cybersecurity across Charter and the overall protection of our internal network and related processes, policy, training and actions to protect customer and employee data. The CSC is comprised of senior leaders across the organization and operates under the auspices of the Security ESC, which is ultimately accountable under our enterprise risk management program for cybersecurity.

Our Executive Vice President, Chief Technology and Information Officer leads network technology, software development, security, technical integration, and information technology (“IT”). He has served in various software and engineering roles at Charter since 2016, and has previously held various IT roles, including chief information officer, at other telecommunications companies. Our Executive Vice President, Network Technology Services is responsible for operating our customer product technology infrastructure across our 41-state footprint. He has served in various network operations roles at Charter since 2016 and previously held various engineering roles at other large public companies. Both these leaders collectively oversee our cybersecurity program.

Our Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”) is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional and has served in various roles in information security at Charter since 2020. He has over two decades of experience in cybersecurity, corporate security and network operations, including cyber threat intelligence, vulnerability management, security operations, incident response, information security engineering and architecture, risk management and security awareness.

Item 2. Properties.

Our principal physical assets consist of cable distribution plant and equipment, including signal receiving, encoding and decoding devices, headend reception facilities, distribution systems, and customer premise equipment for each of our cable systems. Our cable plant and related equipment are generally attached to utility poles under pole rental agreements with local public utilities and telephone companies, and in certain locations are buried in underground ducts or trenches. We own or lease real property for signal reception sites and own our service vehicles. We generally lease space for business offices. Our headend locations are located on owned or leased parcels of land. The physical components of our cable systems require maintenance as well as periodic upgrades to support the new services and products we introduce. See “Item 1. Business – Our Network Technology.” We believe that our properties are generally in good operating condition and are suitable for our business operations.

Overview

We are a leading broadband connectivity company with services available to 58 million homes and small to large businesses across 41 states through our Spectrum brand. Founded in 1993, we have evolved from providing cable TV to streaming, and from high-speed Internet to a converged broadband, WiFi and mobile experience. Over the Spectrum Fiber Broadband Network and supported by our 100% U.S.-based employees, we offer Seamless Connectivity and Entertainment with Spectrum Internet, Mobile, TV and Voice products. See “Part I. Item 1. Business — Products and Services” for further description of these services, including customer statistics for different services.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we added 1.9 million mobile lines while Internet and video losses improved as compared to the prior year period. Sales were challenged by the competitive environment but were offset by lower customer churn. We remain focused on improving customer results through our brand platform, Life Unlimited which emphasizes the power of our advanced fiber-powered network and cutting-edge connectivity products and services, and our simplified pricing and packaging strategy that better utilizes our seamless connectivity and entertainment products to offer lower promotional and persistent bundled pricing to drive growth. Our Internet and mobile product bundles provide a differentiated connectivity experience by bringing together Spectrum Internet, Advanced WiFi and Unlimited Spectrum Mobile to offer consumers fast, reliable and secure online connections on their favorite devices at home and on the go in high-value packages. We have completed deals with major programmers to deliver better flexibility and greater value to our customers by including seamless entertainment applications with certain of our Spectrum TV packages at no additional cost. In July 2025, we began launching the sale of these seamless entertainment applications to customers on an à la carte basis, and we recently launched the Spectrum App Store, a digital storefront that helps customers activate, upgrade, buy and manage their streaming applications in one place. We also continue to evolve other elements of our video product and are deploying Xumo stream boxes to new video customers.

Our customer commitments focus on reliable connectivity, transparency, exceptional service and always improving. By continually improving our product set and offering consumers the opportunity to save money by switching to our services, we believe we can continue to penetrate our expanding footprint and sell additional products to our existing customers. We see operational benefits from the targeted investments we made in employee wages and benefits to build employee skill sets and tenure, as well as the continued investments in digitization of our customer service platforms, all with the goal of improving the customer experience, reducing transactions and driving customer growth and retention.

We spent $2.2 billion on our subsidized rural construction initiative during the year ended December 31, 2025 and activated approximately 483,000 subsidized rural passings. We currently offer Spectrum Internet products with speeds up to 1 Gbps across our entire footprint and multi-gigabit data speeds in a portion of our footprint. Our network evolution initiative remains on track to deliver symmetrical and multi-gigabit speeds across our entire footprint with convergence everywhere we operate.

We realized revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and income from operations during the periods presented as follows (in millions; all percentages are calculated using whole numbers; minor differences may exist due to rounding).

Years ended December 31,
2025 2024 Growth
Revenues $ 54,774  $ 55,085  (0.6) %
Adjusted EBITDA $ 22,708  $ 22,569  0.6  %
Income from operations $ 12,908  $ 13,118  (1.6) %

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Charter shareholders plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, other income (expenses), net and other operating (income) expenses, net, such as special charges, merger and acquisition costs and (gain) loss on sale or retirement of assets. See “—Use of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow” for further information on Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.   

Total revenues decreased slightly primarily due to lower customers, higher seamless entertainment allocation and lower advertising sales, partly offset by mobile line growth and higher average revenue per customer. Adjusted EBITDA grew slightly with mobile revenues growing at a faster rate than mobile direct costs. Income from operations was further negatively impacted by an increase in loss on disposal of assets and merger and acquisition costs.

Approximately 89% of our revenues for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are attributable to monthly subscription fees charged to customers for our Internet, mobile, video, voice and commercial services as well as regional sports and news channels. Generally, these customer subscriptions may be discontinued by the customer at any time subject to a fee for certain commercial customers. The remaining 11% of our revenue is derived primarily from advertising revenues, franchise and other regulatory fee revenues (which are collected by us but then paid to local authorities), sales of mobile and video devices, processing fees or reconnection fees charged to customers to commence or reinstate service, installation, VOD and pay-per-view programming, and commissions related to the sale of merchandise by home shopping services.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Certain of our accounting policies require our management to make difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments. Management has discussed these policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Charter, and the Audit Committee has reviewed the following disclosure. We consider the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the estimates, assumptions and judgments that are involved in preparing our financial statements, and the uncertainties that could affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows:

• Capitalization of labor and overhead costs
• Valuation and impairment of franchises and goodwill
• Income taxes

Capitalization of labor and overhead costs

Costs associated with network construction or upgrades, placement of the customer drop to the dwelling and the placement of outlets within a dwelling along with the costs associated with the deployment of new customer premise equipment necessary to provide Internet, video or voice services, are capitalized.  Costs capitalized include materials, direct labor and certain indirect costs.  These indirect costs consist of compensation and overhead costs associated with support functions.  While our capitalization is based on specific activities, once capitalized, we track these costs on a composite basis by fixed asset category at the cable system level, and not on a specific asset basis.  For assets that are sold or retired, we remove the estimated applicable cost and accumulated depreciation.  The costs of disconnecting service and removing customer premise equipment from a dwelling and the costs to reconnect a customer drop or to redeploy previously installed customer premise equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred. Costs for repairs and maintenance are charged to operating expense as incurred, while plant and equipment replacement, including replacement of certain components, betterments, and replacement of cable drops and outlets, are capitalized.

We make judgments regarding the installation and construction activities to be capitalized. We capitalized direct labor and overhead of $2.6 billion and $2.4 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We capitalize direct labor and overhead using standards developed from actual costs and applicable operational data. We calculate standards

40

annually (or more frequently if circumstances dictate) for items such as the labor rates, overhead rates, and the actual amount of time required to perform a capitalizable activity. For example, the standard amounts of time required to perform capitalizable activities are based on studies of the time required to perform such activities. Overhead rates are established based on an analysis of the nature of costs incurred in support of capitalizable activities, and a determination of the portion of costs that is directly attributable to capitalizable activities. The impact of changes that resulted from these studies were not material in the periods presented.

Labor costs directly associated with capital projects are capitalized. Capitalizable activities performed in connection with installations include such activities as:

• dispatching a “truck roll” to the customer’s dwelling or business for service connection or placement of new equipment;
• costs to package and ship new equipment to a customer's home for self-installation;
• verification of serviceability to the customer’s dwelling or business (i.e., determining whether the customer’s dwelling is capable of receiving service by our cable network);
• customer premise activities performed by in-house field technicians and third-party contractors in connection with the installation, replacement and betterment of equipment and materials to enable Internet, video or voice services; and
• verifying the integrity of the customer’s network connection by initiating test signals downstream from the headend to the customer premise equipment, as well as testing signal levels at the utility pole or pedestal.

Judgment is required to determine the extent to which overhead costs incurred result from specific capital activities, and therefore should be capitalized. The primary costs that are included in the determination of the overhead rate are (i) employee benefits and payroll taxes associated with capitalized direct labor, (ii) direct variable costs associated with capitalizable activities, (iii) the cost of support personnel, such as care personnel and dispatchers, who assist with capitalizable installation activities, and (iv) indirect costs directly attributable to capitalizable activities.

While we believe our existing capitalization policies are appropriate, a significant change in the nature or extent of our operating practices could affect management’s judgment about the extent to which we should capitalize direct labor or overhead in the future. We monitor the appropriateness of our capitalization policies and perform updates to our internal studies on an ongoing basis to determine whether facts or circumstances warrant a change to our capitalization policies.

Valuation and impairment of franchises and goodwill

The carrying value of franchise intangibles as of both December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $67.5 billion (representing 44% and 45% of total assets, respectively), and the carrying value of goodwill as of both December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $29.7 billion (representing 19% and 20% of total assets, respectively).

Franchise rights represent the value attributed to agreements or authorizations with local and state authorities that allow access to homes in cable service areas. For valuation purposes, they are defined as the future economic benefits of the right to solicit and service potential customers (customer marketing rights), and the right to deploy and market new services to potential customers (service marketing rights).

Management estimates the fair value of franchise rights at the date of acquisition and determines if the franchise has a finite life or an indefinite life. We have concluded that all of our franchises qualify for indefinite life treatment given that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors which limit the period over which these rights will contribute to our cash flows. We reassess this determination periodically or whenever events or substantive changes in circumstances occur.

All franchises are tested for impairment annually or more frequently as warranted by events or changes in circumstances. Franchises are aggregated into essentially inseparable units of accounting to conduct valuations. The franchise units of accounting are geographical clustering of cable systems into groups representing the highest and best use if sold to market participants. We performed a quantitative impairment analysis as of October 31, 2025 utilizing a multi-period excess earnings method, a discounted cash flow income approach which isolates discrete cash flows attributable to the franchise intangibles from the business enterprise cash flows. The income approach incorporated updated projections of the business enterprise cash flows, allocations of cash flows attributable to franchise intangibles, and current market assumptions for growth rates and discount rates. Based on our quantitative analysis, we concluded that the fair value of the franchises in each unit of accounting exceeds the carrying value of such assets by more than 10%.

41

Goodwill is also tested for impairment annually or more frequently as warranted by events or changes in circumstances. We have determined that we have one reporting unit for purposes of the assessment of goodwill impairment. As with our franchise impairment testing, we elected to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis as of October 31, 2025. We changed the annual goodwill impairment test date to October 31 from the November 30 date used in the prior year’s qualitative assessment to allow for sufficient time to complete the quantitative analysis in conjunction with the year-end financial reporting process. The quantitative analysis considers whether the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value of the reporting unit, in which case an impairment charge is recorded to the extent the reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. As a result of that assessment, we concluded that goodwill is not impaired.

For more information, see Note 5 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Income taxes

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities and expected benefits of utilizing loss carryforwards, including indefinite lived carryovers such as the Section 163(j) interest limitation. Valuation allowances are established when management determines that it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance, management considers various factors, including the expected level of future taxable income, available tax planning strategies and reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. The impact on deferred taxes of changes in tax rates and tax law, if any, applied to the years during which temporary differences are expected to be settled, are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period of enactment. In determining our tax provision for financial reporting purposes, we establish a reserve for uncertain tax positions unless such positions are determined to be “more likely than not” of being sustained upon examination, based on their technical merits. There is considerable judgment involved in making such a determination. We recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain income tax positions as part of the income tax provision. See Note 17 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for additional discussion.

Revenues. Total revenues decreased $311 million or 0.6% during the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to 2024 primarily due to lower customers, higher seamless entertainment allocation and lower advertising sales, partly offset by mobile line growth and higher average revenue per customer.

43

Revenues by service offering were as follows (dollars in millions; all percentages are calculated using whole numbers; minor differences may exist due to rounding):

Years ended December 31,
2025 2024 Growth
Internet $ 23,765  $ 23,360  1.7  %
Mobile service 3,762  3,083  22.0  %
Connectivity 27,527  26,443  4.1  %

Other 3,411  3,042  12.1  %
$ 54,774  $ 55,085  (0.6) %

The increase in Internet revenues from our residential customers was attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Increase related to rate and product mix changes $ 785 
Decrease in average residential Internet customers (380)
$ 405 

The increase related to rate and product mix was primarily due to promotional rate step-ups, rate adjustments, and a favorable change in bundled revenue allocation. Residential Internet customers decreased by 393,000 in 2025 compared to 2024.

The increase in mobile service revenues from our residential customers is attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Increase in average residential mobile lines $ 714 
Decrease related to rate (35)
$ 679 

Residential mobile lines increased by 1.8 million in 2025 compared to 2024.

Video revenues consist primarily of revenues from video services provided to our residential customers, as well as franchise fees, equipment service fees and video installation revenue. The decrease in video revenues was attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Decrease in average residential video customers $ (813)
Increase in seamless entertainment allocation (322)
Decrease related to rate and product mix changes (291)
$ (1,426)

44

Residential video customers decreased by 255,000 in 2025 compared to 2024. The decrease related to rate and product mix was primarily due to a higher mix of lower priced video packages within our video customer base and more unfavorable bundled revenue allocation, partly offset by promotional rate step-ups and video rate adjustments that pass-through programming rate increases. Seamless entertainment allocation represents costs allocated to programmer streaming applications and netted within video revenue. The growth is due to more seamless entertainment applications and higher activations.

The decrease in voice revenues from our residential customers was attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Decrease in average residential voice customers $ (230)
Increase related to rate adjustments 143 
$ (87)

Residential wireline voice customers decreased by 804,000 in 2025 compared to 2024.

The decrease in small business revenues is attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Decrease in average small business customers $ (17)
Decrease related to rate and product mix changes (13)
$ (30)

Small business customers decreased by 13,000 in 2025 compared to 2024.

Mid-market & large business revenues increased $91 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to an increase in Internet PSUs. Mid-market & large business PSUs increased by 17,000 in 2025 compared to 2024.

Advertising sales revenues consist primarily of revenues from commercial advertising customers, programmers and other vendors, as well as local cable and advertising on regional sports and news channels. Advertising sales revenues decreased $312 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to a decrease in political revenue.

Other revenues consist of revenue from mobile and video device sales, processing fees, regional sports and news channels (excluding intercompany charges or advertising sales on those channels), subsidy revenue, home shopping, wire maintenance fees and other miscellaneous revenues. Other revenues increased approximately $369 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher mobile device sales.

Operating costs and expenses . The decrease in our operating costs and expenses, exclusive of items shown separately in the consolidated statements of operations, was attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Programming $ (831)
Other costs of revenue 353 
Field and technology operations (18)
Customer operations (47)
Marketing and residential sales 192 
Transition expenses 19 
Other (96)
$ (428)

45

Programming costs were approximately $8.8 billion and $9.7 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, representing 27% and 29% of total operating costs and expenses, respectively. Programming costs consist primarily of costs paid to programmers for basic, premium, video on demand, and pay-per-view programming. Programming costs decreased as a result of a higher mix of lower cost video packages within our video customer base and fewer video customers as well as costs allocated to seamless entertainment applications and netted within video revenue, partly offset by contractual rate adjustments, including renewals and increases in amounts paid for retransmission consent.

Other costs of revenue increased $353 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher mobile service direct costs and mobile device sales due to an increase in mobile lines.

Marketing and residential sales increased $192 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to a change in sales mix to higher cost sales channels.

Transition expenses represent incremental costs incurred to prepare for the integration of the Cox Transactions’ operations and to bring systems and processes into a uniform operating structure. See Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” for more information.

Other expense decreased $96 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to one-time favorable adjustments of $75 million.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $38 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to an increase in depreciation as a result of more recent capital expenditures, partly offset by certain assets becoming fully depreciated.

Other operating expenses, net. Other operating expenses, net increased primarily due to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Special charges, net $ 18 
(Gain) loss on disposal of assets, net 142 
Merger and acquisition costs 129 
$ 289 

For more information, see Note 15 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Interest expense, net. Net interest expense decreased by $187 million in 2025 from 2024 primarily due to a decrease in weighted average interest rates and debt.

Other expenses, net. The increase in other expenses, net is attributable to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Net periodic pension benefit (costs) (see Note 21) $ 27 
Loss on equity investments, net (see Note 6) (26)
Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, net (see Note 9) (29)
Loss on financial instruments, net (see Note 13) 7 
$ (21)

See Note 15 and the Notes referenced above to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for more information.

Income tax expense. We recognized income tax expense of $1.7 billion and $1.6 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively . For more information, see Note 17 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

46

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest for financial reporting purposes represents A/N’s portion of Charter Holdings’ net income based on its effective common unit ownership interest. For more information, see Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Net income attributable to Charter shareholders. Net income attributable to Charter shareholders was $5.0 billion and $5.1 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily as a result of the factors described above.

Use of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow

We use certain measures that are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to evaluate various aspects of our business. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income attributable to Charter shareholders and net cash flows from operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP. These terms, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are reconciled to net income attributable to Charter shareholders and net cash flows from operating activities, respectively, below.

Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the significant non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of our businesses as well as other non-cash or special items, and is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. However, this measure is limited in that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues and our cash cost of financing. These costs are evaluated through other financial measures.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows from operating activities, less capital expenditures and changes in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures.

Management and the Board of Directors of Charter use Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to assess our performance and our ability to service our debt, fund operations and make additional investments with internally generated funds. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA generally correlates to the leverage ratio calculation under our credit facilities or outstanding notes to determine compliance with the covenants contained in the facilities and notes (all such documents have been previously filed with the SEC). For the purpose of calculating compliance with leverage covenants, we use Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, excluding certain expenses paid by our operating subsidiaries to other Charter entities. Our debt covenants refer to these expenses as management fees, which fees were in the amount of $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to net income attributable to Charter shareholders and net cash flows from operating activities, respectively, is as follows (dollars in millions):

Years ended December 31,
2025 2024
Net income attributable to Charter shareholders $ 4,987  $ 5,083 
Plus: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest 779  770 
Interest expense, net 5,042  5,229 
Income tax expense 1,692  1,649 
Depreciation and amortization 8,711  8,673 
Stock compensation expense 673  651 
Other, net 824  514 
Adjusted EBITDA $ 22,708  $ 22,569 

Net cash flows from operating activities $ 16,077  $ 14,430 
Less: Purchases of property, plant and equipment (11,659) (11,269)
Change in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures 586  1,096 
Free cash flow $ 5,004  $ 4,257

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We have significant amounts of debt and require significant cash to fund principal and interest payments on our debt. The principal amount of our debt as of December 31, 2025 was $94.6 billion, consisting of $11.9 billion of credit facility debt, $55.4 billion of investment grade senior secured notes and $27.3 billion of high-yield senior unsecured notes. Our split credit rating allows us to access both the investment grade debt and the high yield debt markets.  Additionally, our bankruptcy remote special purpose vehicle is the borrower of a senior secured revolving credit facility to finance the purchase of equipment installment plan receivables with a number of financial institutions (the “EIP Financing Facility”). As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the EIP Financing Facility was $1.4 billion. For more information on the EIP Financing Facility, see Note 10 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Our projected cash needs and projected sources of liquidity depend upon, among other things, our actual results, and the timing and amount of our expenditures. Free cash flow was $5.0 billion and $4.3 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See table below for factors impacting free cash flow during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the amount available under our credit facilities was approximately $4.4 billion and cash on hand was approximately $477 million. We expect to utilize free cash flow, cash on hand and availability under our credit facilities as well as future refinancing transactions to further extend the maturities of our obligations. The timing and terms of any refinancing transactions will be subject to market conditions among other considerations. Additionally, we may, from time to time, and depending on market conditions and other factors, use cash on hand and the proceeds from securities offerings or other borrowings to retire our debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, tender offers or redemption provisions. We believe we have sufficient liquidity from cash on hand, free cash flow and Charter Operating’s revolving credit facility as well as access to the capital markets to fund our projected cash needs.

We continue to evaluate the deployment of our cash on hand and anticipated future free cash flow, including investing in our business growth and other strategic opportunities, including expanding the capacity of our network, the expansion of our network through our rural broadband construction initiative, the build-out and deployment of our CBRS spectrum, and mergers and acquisitions as well as stock repurchases and dividends. Charter's leverage ratio of net debt to the last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA was 4.15 times as of December 31, 2025. Charter plans to maintain a leverage ratio, pro forma for the closing of the Liberty Broadband Combination near the midpoint of its stated range of 4.0 to 4.5 times Adjusted EBITDA in the period leading up to the Closing, and up to 3.5 times Adjusted EBITDA at the Charter Operating first lien level. Charter plans to adjust its long-term target leverage range after the Closing to 3.5 to 3.75 times Adjusted EBITDA. As Adjusted EBITDA grows, we expect to increase the total amount of our indebtedness to maintain leverage within Charter's target leverage range.

Excluding purchases from Liberty Broadband discussed below, during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Charter purchased in the public market approximately 12.3 million and 2.7 million shares, respectively, of Charter Class A common stock for approximately $3.8 billion and $822 million, respectively. Since the beginning of its buyback program in September 2016 through the year ended December 31, 2025, Charter has purchased in the public market approximately 179.7 million shares of Class A common stock and Charter Holdings common units for approximately $78.8 billion, including purchases from Liberty Broadband and A/N discussed below.

On November 12, 2024, Charter and Liberty Broadband entered into the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. The Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment sets forth, among other things, the terms of Liberty Broadband’s participation in Charter’s share repurchases during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger. Pursuant to the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, each month during the pendency of the proposed transaction, Charter will repurchase shares of Charter Class A common stock from Liberty Broadband in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100 million and (ii) the Liberty Broadband minimum liquidity threshold as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, provided that if any repurchase would reduce Liberty Broadband’s equity interest in Charter below 25.25% after giving effect to such repurchase or if all or a portion of such repurchase is not permitted under applicable law, then Charter shall instead loan to Liberty Broadband an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the repurchase amount that cannot be repurchased and (y) the Liberty Broadband minimum liquidity threshold as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment less the repurchase amount that is repurchased, with such loan on the terms set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. From and after the date Liberty Broadband’s exchangeable debentures are no longer outstanding, the amount of monthly repurchases will be the lesser of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the amount needed, in the reasonable judgment of Charter, to maintain an unrestricted cash balance of Liberty Broadband and its subsidiaries (other than GCI Holdings, LLC, GCI Spinco (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and their respective

48

subsidiaries) of $50 million plus (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Liberty Broadband margin loan. The purchase price payable by Charter to Liberty Broadband in connection with such monthly repurchases will equal (i) the average price paid by Charter for shares of Charter Class A common stock repurchased during the immediately preceding calendar month (excluding shares repurchased from A/N and certain other excluded repurchases) or (ii) if Charter has not engaged in any repurchases of shares of Charter Class A common stock during the immediately preceding calendar month (other than any repurchases from A/N and certain other excluded repurchases), a purchase price based on a Bloomberg volume-weighted average price methodology proposed by Charter and reasonably acceptable to Liberty Broadband. Liberty Broadband will apply the proceeds from any such repurchases or borrowings from Charter to repay certain of its outstanding indebtedness in accordance with the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. The Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment provides that Liberty Broadband will be exempt from the standstill restrictions and the ownership cap under the Existing Stockholders Agreement to the extent its ownership in Charter exceeds such ownership cap solely as a result of the repurchase provisions in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Charter purchased from Liberty Broadband 3.8 million and 1.0 million shares of Charter Class A common stock for approximately $1.2 billion and $335 million, respectively.

In December 2016, Charter and A/N entered into a letter agreement, as amended in December 2017 (the “Existing A/N Letter Agreement”), that requires A/N to sell to Charter or to Charter Holdings, on a monthly basis, a number of shares of Charter Class A common stock or Charter Holdings common units that represents a pro rata participation by A/N and its affiliates in any repurchases of shares of Charter Class A common stock from persons other than A/N effected by Charter during the immediately preceding calendar month, at a purchase price equal to the average price paid by Charter for the shares repurchased from persons other than A/N during such immediately preceding calendar month. In connection with the Cox Transactions, Charter, Charter Holdings and A/N entered into an amendment to the Existing A/N Repurchase Letter, dated as of May 16, 2025 (the “A/N Repurchase Letter Amendment”) which sets forth, among other things, the updated terms of A/N’s participation in Charter’s share repurchases going forward. The right to participate pro rata in repurchases on the terms and conditions set forth in the A/N Repurchase Letter Amendment is effective only from the earlier of the Closing and, in the event the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the date of such termination (such earlier date, the “Trigger Date”). Prior to the Trigger Date, the Existing A/N Letter Agreement will remain in full force and continue to govern A/N’s participation in Charter’s share repurchases, except for certain specific amendments set forth in the A/N Repurchase Letter Amendment which became effective upon execution of the A/N Repurchase Letter Amendment, including, in certain circumstances, where A/N elects not to participate in redemptions by Charter Holdings because such participation would cause A/N’s equity interest in Charter to be less than 11% prior to the Trigger Date, A/N may, subject to certain conditions, elect to receive a tax loan from Charter Holdings on the terms set forth in the A/N Repurchase Letter Amendment and in definitive documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Charter and A/N. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Charter Holdings purchased from A/N 1.0 million and 0.6 million Charter Holdings common units, respectively, for approximately $373 million and $189 million, respectively.

On August 4, 2025, Charter received a notice from A/N pursuant to the Existing Letter Agreement, whereby A/N notified Charter that A/N was suspending the standing share repurchase agreement between A/N and Charter (the “Suspension”). The Suspension took effect immediately after the first repurchase closing date under the Existing Letter Agreement to occur following the date of the notice. In the notice, A/N informed Charter that it intends for the Suspension to continue through the consummation of the closing of the Cox Transactions or the termination thereof, but reserved the right to end such Suspension before or after such time.

As of December 31, 2025, Charter had remaining board authority to purchase an additional $212 million of Charter’s Class A common stock and/or Charter Holdings common units, excluding purchases from Liberty Broadband. Although Charter expects to continue to buy back its common stock consistent with its leverage target range, Charter is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the timing of any purchases that may occur cannot be predicted and will largely depend on market conditions and other potential uses of capital. Purchases may include open market purchases, tender offers or negotiated transactions.

As possible acquisitions, swaps or dispositions arise, we actively review them against our objectives including, among other considerations, improving the operational efficiency, geographic clustering of assets, product development or technology capabilities of our business and achieving appropriate return targets, and we may participate to the extent we believe these possibilities present attractive opportunities. However, there can be no assurance that we will actually complete any acquisitions, including the Cox Transactions, dispositions or system swaps, or that any such transactions will be material to our operations or results.

New Tax Legislation

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The OBBBA contains numerous business tax provisions, including business extenders made permanent such as restoration of 100% bonus depreciation, IRC Section 174 expensing for US-based research, and the EBITDA-based business interest expense limitation under IRC Section 163(j). The OBBBA reduced cash paid for taxes during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow increased $747 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding prior period due to the following (dollars in millions):

2025 compared to 2024
Decrease in cash paid for taxes, net $ 669 
Changes in working capital, mobile devices 398 
Decrease in cash paid for interest, net 347 
Increase in Adjusted EBITDA 139 
Changes in working capital, excluding mobile devices (455)
Increase in capital expenditures (390)
Other, net 39

Historical Operating, Investing, and Financing Activities

Cash and Cash Equivalents. We held $477 million and $459 million in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, we held $121 million and $47 million in restricted cash included in prepaid and other current assets in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased $1.6 billion during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in cash paid for taxes and interest, increase in Adjusted EBITDA and the payment of litigation settlements in 2024.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $11.6 billion and $10.7 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in cash used was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures and changes in accrued expenses related to capital expenditures.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased $386 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in the purchase of treasury stock and noncontrolling interest and decrease in borrowings under the EIP Financing Facility, partly offset by an increase in the amount by which borrowings of long-term debt exceeded repayments.

Capital Expenditures

We have significant ongoing capital expenditure requirements.  Capital expenditures were $11.7 billion and $11.3 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in support capital, higher spend on network evolution and an increase in scalable infrastructure spend, partly offset by a decrease in line extensions. See the table below for more details.

We currently expect full year 2026 capital expenditures to total approximately $11.4 billion. The actual amount of capital expenditures in 2026 will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the pace of our network evolution and expansion initiatives, supply chain timing and residential and business growth rates.

Our capital expenditures are funded primarily from cash flows from operating activities and borrowings on our credit facility. In addition, our accrued liabilities related to capital expenditures increased $586 million and $1.1 billion for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(a) The accreted values presented in the table above represent the principal amount of the debt adjusted for original issue discount or premium at the time of sale, deferred financing costs, and, in regards to debt assumed in acquisitions, fair value premium adjustments as a result of applying acquisition accounting plus the accretion of those amounts to the balance sheet date. However, the amount that is currently payable if the debt becomes immediately due is equal to the principal amount of the debt. In regards to the Sterling Notes, the principal amount of the debt and any premium or discount is remeasured

Item 7A.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Cross-currency derivative instruments are used to manage foreign exchange risk on the Sterling Notes by effectively converting £1.275 billion aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate British pound sterling denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to fixed-rate U.S. dollar denominated debt. The fair value of our cross-currency derivatives included in other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets was $406 million and $504 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For more information, see Note 13 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements contained in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted average interest rate on the credit facility debt was approximately 5.6% and 6.3%, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on the senior notes was approximately 5.1% and 5.0%, respectively, resulting in a blended weighted average interest rate of 5.1% and 5.2%, respectively.  The interest rate on approximately 87% and 89% of the total principal amount of our debt was fixed as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the information generated for use in this annual report. The evaluation was based upon reports and certifications provided by a number of executives. Based on, and as of the date of that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon the above evaluation, we believe that our controls provide such reasonable assurances.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the company. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) . Based on management’s assessment utilizing these criteria we believe that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was effective .

Our independent auditors, KPMG LLP, have audited our internal control over financial reporting as stated in their report as follows.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Charter Communications, Inc.:

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Charter Communications, Inc. and subsidiaries' (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated January 29, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
