For Immediate Release
Mediacom Communications Reports Results
for Second Quarter 2005

 
Middletown, NY — August 3, 2005 — MEDIACOM COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION (Nasdaq: MCCC) today reported its results for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The Company will hold a teleconference to discuss its second quarter 2005 results today at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time. A live broadcast of the Company’s teleconference can be accessed through the Company web site at www.mediacomcc.com.
Second Quarter 2005 Financial Highlights
Second quarter 2005 highlights were as follows:
    Revenue of $277.3 million, an increase of 3.6% over Q2 2004
 
    Operating income before depreciation and amortization (“OIBDA”) of $105.5 million, a decrease of 2.7% over Q2 2004
 
    Capital expenditures of $57.1 million
 
    Total revenue generating units (“RGUs”) of 2,327,000, an increase of 136,000, or 6.2%, over June 30, 2004, and a gain of 29,000 during the quarter, including:
    Basic subscriber losses of 15,000
 
    Digital customer gains of 25,000
 
    Data customer gains of 19,000
“Mediacom delivered its third consecutive quarter of solid RGU gains, taken in the context of this seasonally weak period,” said Rocco B. Commisso, Mediacom’s Chairman and CEO. “Customers are clearly responding to our new services, product packaging and pricing initiatives. Video-on-demand, high-definition television and digital video recorders are proving to be increasingly popular add-ons to our digital television service. Recently announced increases in bandwidth speed and other enhancements to our Mediacom Online data service have also resonated with customers as our data business maintained its healthy growth. And with our measured launch of residential telephony in certain markets in June, we have added a potent new engine for growth.”
“We believe our RGU growth momentum further validates our business strategies, and we expect to deliver improved year-over-year financial comparisons during the second half of 2005,” Mr. Commisso concluded.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2004
For the second quarter of 2005, revenues were $277.3 million, an increase of 3.6% over the comparable 2004 period.
    Video revenues decreased 0.3%, as a result of a 3.0% reduction in basic subscribers from 1,491,000 to 1,446,000, offset in part by the impact of basic rate increases and higher revenues from advanced digital services. The Company’s loss of basic subscribers substantially occurred in 2004, resulting primarily from increased competitive pressures by DBS service providers and, to a lesser extent, from tightened customer credit policies and the impact of Hurricane Ivan. To reverse this basic subscriber trend, the Company increased its emphasis on product bundling and on enhancing and differentiating video products and services with new digital packages, video-on-demand, high-definition television, digital video recorders and more local programming. Partly as a result of these efforts, the Company’s loss of basic subscribers decreased significantly during the three months ended June 30, 2005, with a loss of 15,000 basic subscribers, compared to a loss of 42,000 in the same period last year. Historically, the Company has experienced a seasonal decline in basic subscribers during the second quarter as college students in its markets typically disconnect at the end of the school year. Digital customers, at 455,000, were up by 82,000 from a year ago. Sequentially, digital customers rose by 25,000. Average monthly video revenue per basic subscriber increased 3.7% from the second quarter of 2004 to $49.52.
 
    Data revenues rose 24.7%, primarily due to a 30.3% year-over-year increase in data customers from 327,000 to 426,000 and, to a much lesser extent, an increased contribution from the Company’s commercial enterprise business. Sequentially, data customers grew by 19,000. Average monthly data revenue per data customer decreased 5.8% from the second quarter of 2004, largely due to various promotional offers since mid-year 2004.
 
    Advertising revenues increased 7.7%, as a result of stronger national and regional advertising, offset in part by a decline in political advertising.
Service costs grew 7.4%, primarily due to: (i) increased programming costs as a result of lower launch support received from programming suppliers and higher unit costs, significantly offset by a lower base of basic subscribers; (ii) higher field operating costs as a result of the wider use of outside contractors to service greater levels of customer activity and, to a lesser extent, increases in plant repairs and maintenance and vehicle related costs; and (iii) greater employee costs caused by increased headcount, overtime and commissions related to higher levels of customer activity and network maintenance.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 8.4%, primarily due to: (i) higher employee costs due to higher staffing, commissions and benefits of customer service and direct sales personnel; and (ii) higher marketing costs as a result of greater reliance on contracted direct sales personnel and advertising campaigns to support increased customer activity. This increase in selling, general and administration expenses was partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense.
Corporate expenses increased 13.3%, primarily due to increases in employee compensation, including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation, and lower capitalization of labor and overhead related to capital project activities.

Depreciation and amortization decreased 3.1%, as a result of asset retirements and the sale of cable system assets in 2004, offset in part by increased depreciation for ongoing investments to continue the rollout of products and services and for investments in the Company’s cable network.
Interest expense, net, increased 5.8%, primarily due to higher market interest rates on variable rate debt. This increase was offset in part by the redemption of the Company’s 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2008 with lower cost bank borrowings.
As a result of the quarterly mark-to-market valuation of the Company’s interest rate exchange agreements, the Company recorded a net loss on derivatives amounting to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to a net gain on derivatives of $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.
The Company recorded a net gain on sale of assets and investments of $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, due to the sale of American Independence Corporation common stock.
The Company generated a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2005 of $6.0 million, as compared to net income of $30.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has included, in Attachment 4, the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 in order to provide more detail regarding the liquidity and capital resources discussion below.
Significant sources of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2005 consisted of the following:
    Generation of net cash flows from operating activities of approximately $106.0 million; and
 
    Proceeds from the sale of assets and investments of $2.1 million.
Significant uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2005 consisted of the following:
    Capital expenditures of approximately $111.9 million; and
 
    Net cash used in financing activities, primarily repurchases of common stock and a loss on early extinguishment of debt, of approximately $8.6 million.
Financial Position
At June 30, 2005, the Company had total debt outstanding of $3.020 billion, an increase of $10.4 million since December 31, 2004. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had unused credit facilities of $645.7 million, all of which could be borrowed and used for general corporate purposes based on the terms and conditions of the Company’s debt arrangements. As of the date of this press release, 65% of the Company’s total debt is at fixed interest rates or subject to interest rate protection, and the Company’s weighted average cost of debt capital, including interest rate swap agreements, is 6.7%.

Updated 2005 Guidance
The Company today announced that it is updating its guidance for capital expenditures from the previously announced range of $200 million to $210 million to a revised range of $215 million to $225 million. This revision is principally due to the greater than expected levels of customer connection activity, including installation costs and higher customer demand for DVRs and HD set-top boxes. The Company affirms all other elements of its 2005 guidance, which were issued in a press release on February 22, 2005.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
“OIBDA,” “unlevered free cash flow,” and “free cash flow” are not financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. The Company defines unlevered free cash flow as OIBDA less cash taxes and capital expenditures, and free cash flow as OIBDA less interest expense, net, cash taxes and capital expenditures.
OIBDA is one of the primary measures used by management to evaluate the Company’s performance and to forecast future results. The Company believes OIBDA is useful for investors because it enables them to assess the Company’s performance in a manner similar to the method 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. A limitation of this measure, 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 the Company’s business. Management utilizes a separate process to budget, measure and evaluate capital expenditures.
Unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow are used by management to evaluate the Company’s ability to service its debt and to fund continued growth with internally generated funds. The Company believes unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow are useful for investors because they enable them to assess the Company’s ability to service its debt and to fund continued growth with internally generated funds in a manner similar to the method used by management, and provide measures that can be used to analyze, value and compare companies in the cable television industry. The Company’s definitions of unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow eliminate the impact of quarterly working capital fluctuations, most notably from the timing of semi-annual cash interest payments on the Company’s senior notes. The only difference between the terms unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow is that unlevered free cash flow does not subtract interest expense, net.
OIBDA, unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow should not be regarded as alternatives to either operating income, net income or net loss as indicators of operating performance or to the statement of cash flows as measures of liquidity, nor should they be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that operating income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to OIBDA, and that net cash flows provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow. Reconciliations of historical presentations of OIBDA, unlevered free cash flow and free cash flow to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in Attachment 6.
