Charter Model Update

This note focuses mostly on model changes. Please see separate notes reviewing results and on thoughts following the earnings call. We lowered broadband adds, revenue and EBITDA. We also expect leverage to approach 4.25x by the end of the year. This likely rules out further repurchases this year, unless EBITDA is stronger than we expect. No change to thesis, though we expect Broadband stocks to be challenged for at least next few quarters. Price target is $431 (+69%).
