    Greenfield markets now pass 91.1 thousand homes with a penetration rate at 16.0%

    ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- WideOpenWest, Inc. ("WOW!" or the "Company") (NYSE:WOW), one of the nation's leading broadband providers, with an efficient, high-performing network that passes nearly 2.0 million residential, business and wholesale consumers, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

    WOW! (PRNewsfoto/WideOpenWest, Inc.)

    Second Quarter 2025 Highlights (1)

    • Total Revenue of $144.2 million, a decrease of $14.6 million, or 9.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2024
    • HSD Revenue totaled $104.8 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 0.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2024
    • Net Loss was $17.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025
    • Adjusted EBITDA of $70.3 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 0.4%, compared to the second quarter of 2024
    • Net loss of 3,900 HSD RGUs for the quarter ended June 30, 2025
    • Passed approximately 15,500 new homes and added 2,300 subscribers in the Greenfield markets during the second quarter of 2025, bringing total homes passed to 91,100 in Greenfield markets with a penetration rate of 16.0%

    "During the second quarter we passed an additional 15,500 new homes in our all-fiber Greenfield markets. As we continue to accelerate our fiber-to-the-home expansion, we're seeing growth in HSD Greenfield subscribers and consistently strong penetration rates," said Teresa Elder, WOW!'s CEO. "The execution of our expansion strategy continues to drive positive momentum heading into the second half of the year."

    "Our results this quarter reflect a lower cost base as we reduce our expenses related to video which enables us to further invest in our Greenfield growth strategy," said John Rego, WOW!'s CFO. "Low-churn and another quarter of record HSD ARPU, highlight the underlying strength of our business."

    Revenue

    Total Revenue was $144.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down $14.6 million, or 9.2%, as compared to the corresponding period in 2024.

    Total Subscription Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $132.9 million, down $13.6 million, or 9.3%, as compared to the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by an $11.8 million shift in service offering mix, as we experienced a reduction across all RGUs, and a $7.8 million decrease in volume across all services.  This decrease was partially offset by a $6.0 million increase in average revenue per unit ("ARPU"), respectively, due to rate increases issued in the third quarter of 2024 and the first and second quarters of 2025.  ARPU is calculated as subscription revenue for each of the HSD, Video and Telephony services divided by the average total RGUs for each service category for the respective period.

    Other Business Services Revenue totaled $4.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down $0.1 million, or 2.0%, as compared with the corresponding period in 2024, primarily due to decreases in data center revenue.

    Other Revenue totaled $6.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down $0.9 million, or 12.3%, as compared to the corresponding period in 2024, primarily due to a decrease in paper statement revenue and advertising.

    Refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures," and "Subscriber Information" in this Press Release for definitions and information related to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the closest comparable GAAP measures and why our management thinks it is beneficial to present such non-GAAP measures.

    Costs and Expenses 

    Operating Expenses (excluding Depreciation and Amortization) totaled $55.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down $9.4 million, or 14.6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by decreases in direct operating expense, specifically programming expense of $9.2 million, which aligns with the reduction in Video RGUs between periods. Selling, General, and Administrative expenses totaled $35.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down $1.9 million, or 5.0%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the receipt of business continuity insurance recoveries offsetting expenses in the current period. 

    Net Loss 

    Net Loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $17.8 million as compared to net loss of $10.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Net Profit Margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was (12.3)% as compared to (6.8%) for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

    Adjusted EBITDA

    Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $70.3 million, an increase of $0.3 million, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 48.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, as compared to 44.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

    Subscribers

    WOW! reported Total Subscribers of approximately 469,600 as of June 30, 2025, a decrease of 25,600, or 5%, compared to June 30, 2024, down 4,200 compared to March 31, 2025.  HSD RGUs totaled 462,000 as of June 30, 2025, a decrease of 23,000, or 5%, compared to June 30, 2024, and down 3,900 compared to March 31, 2025.

    Market Expansion

    Market Expansion projects passed an additional 19,000 homes for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, including 15,500 additional homes in Greenfield markets and 3,500 additional homes in Edge-out projects.  In total, Greenfield markets now pass a total of 91,100 homes and 14,600 subscribers, representing a 16.0% penetration rate.

    At June 30, 2025, the 2025 Edge-out projects passed 5,000 new homes and 1,400 subscribers, representing a 28.0% penetration rate. The 2024 Edge-out projects passed 8,300 new homes and 3,800 subscribers, which represents 45.8 % penetration rate. The 2023 Edge-out projects passed 18,500 new homes and 5,800 subscribers, which represents 31.4% penetration rate.

    Capital Expenditures

    Capital Expenditures totaled $47.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, representing a $3.2 million decrease compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to decreases in scalable infrastructure, support capital and other, and line extensions as a result of the timing of spend on market expansion initiatives. Core Capital Expenditures, or total capital expenditures excluding expansion capital expenditures, equated to 19% of Total Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

    Liquidity and Leverage

    As of June 30, 2025, the total outstanding amount of long-term debt and finance lease obligations was $1,053.0 million, and cash was $31.8 million. Total Net Leverage as of June 30, 2025 was 3.5x on a LTM Adjusted EBITDA basis and undrawn revolver capacity totaled $110.4 million.

These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Transaction, will be more fully discussed in the proxy statement. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors to be presented in the proxy statement will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

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

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

    Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate to overall business performance and is defined by WOW! as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (including impairments), impairment losses on intangibles and goodwill, write-off of any asset, loss on early extinguishment of debt, integration and restructuring expenses and all non‑cash charges and expenses (including stock compensation expense) and certain other income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity.

    Refer to "Reconciliations of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures" and the accompanying tables below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA margin to Net Profit margin which are the most directly comparable corresponding GAAP financial measures.

    Subscriber Information

    The Company uses the terms defined below throughout this release.

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

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

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