Q2 FY2025 results
Cable One's Q2 revenue dipped 3.4% y/y to $381.1M, driven by residential video and voice declines, yet residential data held steady at $229.3M while business data edged up 1.2% y/y. A $586.0M non-cash asset impairment charge—$497.2M on franchise agreements and $88.8M on goodwill—triggered by stock price weakness, flipped operating income to a $489.3M loss from $110.1M profit y/y, with net loss at $438.0M or $77.70/share versus $38.2M profit or $6.58/share y/y; diluted shares matched basic at 5.64M due to loss position. Operating cash flow came in at $144.9M for the quarter, supporting $68.4M capex, while free cash flow (derived) stood at $76.5M. Total debt fell to $3.5B with $1.02B revolver availability and no covenant issues; cash sat at $152.9M. The MBI amendment sets up a potential $460M-$510M call/put exercise post-June 2025. Rising competition from fiber overbuilders pressures market share.

Q2 revenues fall, impairments hit
Cable One reported Q2 2025 revenues of $381.1 million, down 3.4% year-over-year, driven by a 15.8% drop in residential video revenues amid its product lifecycle wind-down, while residential data revenues dipped just 0.5% to $229.3 million but rose 1.9% sequentially. A $586.0 million non-cash asset impairment on franchise agreements and goodwill, triggered by a stock price decline, flipped net income to a $438.0 million loss, yet Adjusted EBITDA held at $203.2 million with a 53.3% margin. The company repaid $70.8 million in debt, bolstering liquidity to $1.02 billion under its revolver. Broadband growth lags expectations. Impairments won't dent cash flows or strategy.
