Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
You should carefully review the information contained in this Quarterly Report and in other reports
or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC).
In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial
performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called forward-looking statements by words
such as may, will, should, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates,
predicts, potential, or continue or the negative of those words and other comparable words.
These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from historical results or those we anticipate. Factors that could
cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include, but
are not limited to: competition in our video, high-speed Internet access and phone businesses; our
ability to achieve anticipated customer and revenue growth and to successfully introduce new
products and services; increasing programming costs; changes in laws and regulations; our ability
to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations and access capital to
maintain our financial flexibility; and the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this
Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and
other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. Statements included in this
Quarterly Report are based upon information known to us as of the date that this Quarterly Report
is filed with the SEC, and we assume no obligation to update or alter our forward-looking
statements made in this Quarterly Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as otherwise required by applicable federal securities laws.

1. ORGANIZATION
Mediacom Broadband LLC (Mediacom Broadband, and collectively with its subsidiaries, the
Company), a Delaware limited liability company wholly-owned by Mediacom Communications
Corporation (MCC), is involved in the acquisition and operation of cable systems serving smaller
cities and towns in the United States.
The Company has prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). In the opinion of
management, such statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals and
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys consolidated results of operations
and financial position for the interim periods presented. The accounting policies followed during
such interim periods reported are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States of America and are consistent with those applied during annual periods. For a summary of the Companys accounting policies and other information, refer to the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be
expected for future interim periods or for the full year ending December 31, 2007.
Mediacom Broadband relies on its parent, MCC, for various services such as corporate and
administrative support. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Mediacom
Broadband could differ from those that would have resulted had Mediacom Broadband operated
autonomously or as an entity independent of MCC.
Mediacom Broadband Corporation (Broadband Corporation), a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by
Mediacom Broadband, co-issued, jointly and severally with Mediacom Broadband, public debt
securities. Broadband Corporation has no operations, revenues or cash flows and has no assets,
liabilities or stockholders equity on its balance sheet, other than a one-hundred dollar
receivable from an affiliate and the same dollar amount of common stock on its consolidated balance
sheets. Therefore, separate financial statements have not been presented for this entity.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current years
presentation.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS
No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for
measuring fair value, and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. SFAS No.
157 will be effective as of January 1, 2008 and will be applied prospectively. The Company has not
completed its evaluation of SFAS No. 157 to determine the impact that adoption will have on its
consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS
No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at
fair value. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect that this Statement will have a
material impact on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Bank Credit Facilities
The average interest rate on outstanding debt under the Companys bank credit facilities as of
March 31, 2007 and 2006, was 7.2% and 6.5%, respectively, before giving effect to the interest rate
exchange agreements discussed below. As of March 31, 2007, the Company had unused credit
commitments of approximately $507.9 million under its bank credit facilities, of which $325.2
million could be borrowed and used for general corporate purposes based on the terms and conditions
of the Companys debt arrangements. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under its debt
arrangements as of March 31, 2007.
As of March 31, 2007, approximately $13.9 million of letters of credit were issued to various
parties as collateral for the Companys performance relating primarily to insurance and franchise
requirements.
Interest Rate Exchange Agreements
The Company uses interest rate exchange agreements in order to fix the interest rate on its
floating rate debt. As of March 31, 2007, the Company had interest rate exchange agreements with
various banks pursuant to which the interest rate on $500.0 million is fixed at a weighted average
rate of approximately 5.30%. These agreements have been accounted for on a mark-to-market basis as
of, and for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The Companys interest rate exchange agreements
are scheduled to expire in the amounts of $400.0 million and $100.0 million during the years ended
December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively. As of, and for the three months ended, March 31, 2007 and
2006, based on the mark-to-market valuation, the Company recorded on its consolidated balance sheet
a net accumulated liability for derivatives of $5.7 million and a net accumulated investment in
derivatives of $5.3 million, respectively, which are components of accounts payable and other
non-current liabilities and prepaid and other non-current assets, and a loss on derivatives of $2.3
million and $0.1 million, respectively.
6. PREFERRED MEMBERS INTERESTS
Mediacom
LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of MCC, has a $150.0 million preferred equity investment in the Company as of March 31, 2007.
The preferred equity investment has a 12% annual dividend, payable

MEMBERS EQUITY
Share-based Compensation
Effective
January 1, 2006, MCC adopted SFAS No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment, requiring
the cost of all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to
be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values at the grant date, or the date
of later modification, over the requisite service period.
Total share-based compensation expense was as follows (dollars in thousands):

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company maintains an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP). Under the plan, all employees are
allowed to participate in the purchase of MCCs Class A common stock at a 15% discount on the date
of the allocation. Shares purchased by employees amounted to 55,394
and 65,840 during the three
months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The net proceeds to the Company were
approximately $0.3 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
The Company, its subsidiaries, MCC and other affiliated companies are involved in various legal
actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated
financial position, results of operations, cash flows or business.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated
financial statements as of, and for the three months ended,
March 31, 2007 and 2006, and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Overview
We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mediacom Communications Corporation (MCC). Through our
interactive broadband network, we provide our customers with a wide array of broadband products and
services, including analog and digital video services, such as video-on-demand (VOD),
high-definition television (HDTV), digital video recorders (DVRs), high-speed data access
(HSD) and phone service. We offer triple play bundles of video, HSD, and voice to 92% of our
estimated homes passed. Bundled products and services offer our
customers a single provider
contact for provisioning, billing and customer care.
As of
March 31, 2007, our cable systems passed an estimated 1.48 million homes and served 740,000
basic video subscribers in four states. We provide digital video services to 305,000 customers,
representing a penetration of 41.2% of our basic subscribers. We also currently provide HSD to
331,000 customers, representing a penetration of 22.4% of our estimated homes passed. We introduced
phone service during the second half of 2005, and provided service to about 78,000 customers as of
March 31, 2007, representing a penetration of 5.8% of our estimated marketable phone homes.
We evaluate our growth, in part, by measuring the number of revenue generating units (RGUs) we
serve. As of March 31, 2007, we served 1.45 million RGUs, which represent the total of basic
subscribers and digital, data and phone customers.
We have faced increasing levels of competition for our video programming services over the past few
years, mostly from DBS providers. Since they have been permitted to deliver local television
broadcast signals beginning in 1999, DirecTV and Echostar now have essentially ubiquitous coverage
in our markets with local television broadcast signals. Their ability to deliver local television
broadcast signals has been the primary cause of our loss of basic subscribers in recent years.
Retransmission Consent
Prior
to February 2007, cable systems serving our subscribers carried the broadcast
signals of 4 local broadcast stations owned or programmed by Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc.
(Sinclair) under a month-to-month retransmission arrangement terminable at the end of any month
on 45-days notice. All of these stations are affiliates of one of the big-4 networks (ABC, CBS,
FOX and NBC) that we deliver to approximately half of our total subscribers.
On
September 28, 2006, Sinclair exercised its right to deliver
notice to us to terminate
retransmission of all of its stations effective December 1, 2006, but subsequently agreed to extend
our right to carriage of its signals until January 5, 2007. We and Sinclair were unable
to reach agreement, and on January 5, 2007, Sinclair directed us to discontinue carriage of its
stations. On February 2, 2007, we and Sinclair reached a multi-year agreement and Sinclair
stations were immediately restored on the affected cable systems.
Adjusted OIBDA
We define Adjusted OIBDA as operating income before depreciation and amortization and non-cash,
share-based compensation charges. Adjusted OIBDA is one of the primary measures used by management
to evaluate our performance and to forecast future results but is not a financial measure
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.
We believe Adjusted OIBDA is useful for investors because it enables them to assess our performance
in a manner similar to the methods used by management, and provides a measure that can be used to
analyze, value and compare the companies in the cable television industry, which may have different
depreciation and amortization policies, as well as different non-cash, share-based compensation
programs. A limitation of Adjusted OIBDA, however, is that it excludes depreciation and
amortization, which represents the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible
assets used in generating revenues in our business. Management utilizes a separate process to
budget, measure and evaluate capital expenditures. In addition, Adjusted OIBDA has the limitation
of not reflecting the effect of our non-cash, share-based compensation charges.
11
Adjusted OIBDA should not be regarded as an alternative to either operating income or net income
(loss) as an indicator of operating performance nor should it be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that operating
income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted OIBDA.

Video revenues represent monthly subscription fees charged to customers for our core cable
television products and services (including basic, expanded basic and digital cable programming
services, wire maintenance, equipment rental and services to commercial establishments),
pay-per-view charges, installation, reconnection, and late payment fees, and other ancillary
revenues. Data revenues primarily represent monthly fees charged to customers, including commercial
establishments, for our data products and services and equipment rental fees. Franchise fees
charged to customers for payment to local franchising authorities are included in their
corresponding revenue category. Phone revenues represent monthly fees charged to customers.
Advertising revenues represent the sale of advertising time on various channels.
Revenues rose 6.5%, largely attributable to growth in our data and phone customers. Average total
monthly revenue per basic subscriber grew 10.3% to $77.51. RGUs grew 5.6% year-over-year and
average total monthly revenue per RGU was essentially flat compared with the prior year period.
Video
revenues were essentially flat relative to the first quarter of 2006, with higher service fees from our
advanced video products and services, such as DVRs and HDTV, offset by a lower number of basic
subscribers. The first quarter performance was impacted by our postponement until the second
quarter of basic video rate adjustments that are typically applied earlier in the year, as well as
$0.9 million in credits issued to customers because of ice storms. During the three months ended March
31, 2007, we lost 11,000 basic subscribers, compared to a loss of 1,200 for the same period last
year. The loss of basic subscribers in the first quarter of 2007 was
primarily due to the Sinclair dispute.
Data revenues rose 16.8%, primarily due to an 18.2% year-over-year increase in data customers.
13
Phone revenues grew 168.4%, largely due to a 116.7% increase in phone customers. As of March 31,
2007, Mediacom Phone was marketed to approximately 1.35 million of our 1.48 million estimated homes
passed, and we expect to market the product to approximately 95% of our estimated homes
passed by the end of 2007.
Advertising revenues increased 13.9%, largely as a result of stronger local advertising sales,
offset in part by weaker national advertising sales.
Costs and Expenses
Significant service costs and expenses are for: video programming; wages and salaries of technical
personnel who maintain our cable network, perform customer installation activities, and provide
customer support; our data and phone services, including payments to third-party providers and
costs associated with bandwidth connectivity and customer provisioning; and field operating costs,
including outside contractors, vehicle, utilities and pole rental expenses. Video programming
costs, which are generally paid on a per subscriber basis, represent our largest single expense
category and have historically increased due to both increases in the rates charged for existing
programming services and the introduction of new programming services to our customers. Video
programming costs are expected to continue to grow principally because of contractual unit rate
increases and the increasing demands of television broadcast station owners for retransmission
consent fees. As a consequence, it is expected that our video gross margins will decline as
increases in programming costs outpace growth in video revenues.
Service costs rose 14.2%, primarily due to customer growth in our phone and HSD services, higher
field operating expenses and increases in programming expenses. Recurring expenses related to our
phone and HSD services grew 45.0% commensurate with the significant increase of our phone and data
customers. Field operating costs rose 43.6%, primarily as a result of expenses associated with (i)
the purchase of antennas during the Sinclair dispute, which were distributed to our customers so
that they could receive the affected off-air broadcast signals, and (ii) higher outside contractor
usage, which in part covered repairs to our network damaged in ice storms during the quarter, offset in part by lower
pole rental expenses. Programming expense increased 5.3%, principally as a result of higher unit
costs charged by our programming vendors, offset in part by a lower number of basic subscribers.
Service costs as a percentage of revenues were 42.9% and 40.0% for the three months ended March 31,
2007 and 2006, respectively.
Significant selling, general and administrative expenses include: wages and salaries for our call
centers, customer service and support and administrative personnel; franchise fees and taxes;
marketing; bad debt; billing; advertising; and costs related to telecommunications and
office administration.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 5.7%, principally due to higher marketing costs
and bad debt expenses, offset in part by lower taxes and fees. Marketing costs rose 29.4% largely
due to product and service advertising and mailing campaigns. Bad debt expenses were higher by
34.4% primarily due to unusually low write-offs of uncollectible accounts in the prior year period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 21.5% and 21.6% for
the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
We expect continued revenue growth in advanced services. As a result, we expect our service costs
and selling, general and administrative expenses to increase.
Management fee expense reflects charges incurred under management arrangements with our parent,
MCC. Management fee expense increased 11.6%, reflecting higher overhead costs charged by MCC. As a
percentage of revenues, management fee expense was 1.9% and 1.8% for the three months ended March
31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization expense remained relatively unchanged.
Adjusted OIBDA
Adjusted
OIBDA decreased 1.8%, principally due to higher costs and expenses,
including the one-time impact of the Sinclair dispute, substantially offset by
revenue growth.
14
Operating Income
Operating
income decreased 2.2%, largely due to lower Adjusted OIBDA, offset in part by a modest decline in depreciation and amortization
expense.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net, increased by 9.3%, primarily due to higher market interest rates on variable
rate debt and, to a lesser extent, the expiration of certain
interest rate hedging agreements with favorable rates.
Loss on Derivatives, Net
We enter into interest rate exchange agreements, or interest rate swaps, with counterparties to
fix the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to reduce the potential volatility in
our interest expense that would otherwise result from changes in variable market interest rates. As
of March 31, 2007, we had interest rate swaps with an aggregate principal amount of $500 million.
The changes in their mark-to-market values are derived from changes in market interest rates, the
decrease in their time to maturity and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. As a result of
the quarterly mark-to-market valuation of these interest rate swaps, we recorded a loss on
derivatives, net amounting to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to a
loss of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Net (Loss) Income
As a result of the factors described above, we recognized a net loss for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 of $1.7 million compared to net income of $3.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We have invested, and will continue to invest, in our network to enhance its reliability and
capacity, and in the further deployment of advanced broadband services. Our capital spending has
recently shifted from network upgrade investments to the deployment of advanced services. We also
may continue to make strategic acquisitions of cable systems. We have a high level of indebtedness
and incur significant amounts of interest expense each year. We believe that we will meet our debt
service, capital spending and other requirements through a combination of our net cash flows from
operating activities, borrowing availability under our bank credit facilities, and our ability to
secure future external financing.
As of March 31, 2007, our total debt was $1,589.9 million. Of this amount, $68.4 million matures
within the twelve months ending March 31, 2008. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we
paid cash interest of $18.9 million, net of capitalized interest. As of March 31, 2007, we had
unused revolving credit commitments of approximately $507.9 million, of which approximately $325.2
million could be borrowed and used for general corporate purposes based on the terms and conditions
of our debt arrangements.
For all periods through March 31, 2007, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our
debt arrangements. Continued access to our credit facilities is subject to our remaining in
compliance with the covenants of these credit facilities, including covenants tied to our operating
performance. There are no covenants, events of default, borrowing
conditions or other terms in our credit facilities or our other debt
arrangements that are based on changes in our credit ratings assigned
by any rating agency. We believe that we will not have any difficulty in the foreseeable future complying
with the applicable covenants and that we will meet our current and long-term debt service, capital
spending, and other cash requirements through a combination of our net cash flows from operating
activities, borrowing availability under our bank credit facilities, and our ability to secure
future external financing. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient
future financing, or, if we were able to do so, that the terms would
be favorable to us. Our future access to debt financings and the cost
of such financings are affected by our credit ratings. Any future
downgrade to our credit ratings could increase the cost of debt and
adversely impact our ability to raise additional funds.
Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $31.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 2007 compared to $23.1 million for the comparable period last year. The change of $8.3 million
is primarily due to the net change in operating assets and liabilities.
15
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the net change in our operating assets and
liabilities was $2.9 million, primarily due to a decrease in our prepaid expenses and other
assets of $10.9 million and a decrease in accounts receivable, net
of $5.3 million, offset by a
decrease in accrued liabilities of $13.5 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities, which consisted of capital expenditures,
were $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $22.1 million for the
prior year period. Capital expenditures increased $3.7 million, primarily due to higher spending on
customer premise equipment.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows used in financing activities were $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31,
2007, largely due to a net reduction of debt and a dividend payment
on preferred members interest. Net cash flows used in financing
activities were $0.1 million for the comparable
period in 2006, largely due to net bank borrowings, a dividend payment to parent
and a dividend payment on preferred members interest.
Other
We have entered into interest rate exchange agreements with counterparties, which expire from 2009
through 2010, to hedge $500.0 million of floating rate debt. These agreements have been accounted
for on a mark-to-market basis as of, and for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Our interest
rate exchange agreements are scheduled to expire in the amounts of $400.0 million and $100.0
million during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
As of March 31, 2007, approximately $13.9 million of letters of credit were issued to various
parties as collateral for our performance relating to insurance and franchise requirements.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
There
have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and commercial
commitments as previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2006.
Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. Periodically, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to doubtful accounts, long-lived assets, capitalized costs and accruals. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a
discussion of our critical accounting judgments and estimates that we believe require significant
judgment in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, please refer to our annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Inflation and Changing Prices
Our systems costs and expenses are subject to inflation and price fluctuations. Such changes in
costs and expenses can generally be passed through to subscribers. Programming costs have
historically increased at rates in excess of inflation and are expected to continue to do so. We
believe that under the Federal Communications Commissions existing cable rate regulations we may
increase rates for cable television services to more than cover any increases in programming.
However, competitive conditions and other factors in the marketplace may limit our ability to
increase our rates.
