spk03: Thanks, Andrew. Welcome to WOW's first quarter earnings call. Our business has gotten off to a great start in 2022, picking up right where we left off at the end of last year, successfully executing our plan to grow our high-speed data business. We have shared our path forward and outlined the steps we're taking to get there, expanding our footprint through continued edge-outs, greenfield expansion, and increasing the contribution from our commercial business. I'm pleased to report we are making progress on all three fronts, and they're beginning to show up in our results. For the first quarter, our high-speed data revenue increased nearly 4% on a pro forma basis. while video and telephony revenue declined 14% and 11% respectively from the same period last year. Our pro forma adjusted EBITDA increased nearly 8% to $66.4 million, driven largely by the growth in our high-margin, high-speed data business. The pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin was 38% for the quarter, The metrics in our high-speed data business also continue to show strength. During the first quarter, we added 3,300 high-speed data RGUs, bringing our total number of HSD RGUs to 515,000. With consistent levels of low churn, we once again increased the total number of subscribers, both year over year and sequentially, ending the quarter with 535,000. Our focus on adding HSD-only customers also continues to pay off as we have once again maintained a sell-in rate of approximately 87% of new customers purchasing our HSD-only service for the seventh consecutive quarter. Consistent with last quarter, a majority of new customers are buying speeds above 500 meg and 85% of new customers are buying speeds over 200 meg. High-speed data ARPU of $65 is up marginally from the same period last year, but slightly lower than last quarter. The year-over-year increase predominantly reflects customers purchasing higher data speeds, while the sequential decline was driven by an increase in promotions in the first quarter. Our edge-out strategy continues to deliver growth in homes past and higher penetration rates. Penetration for the 2020 vintage increased to 23.5%, and the 2021 vintage grew to 35%. We are pleased with the growth of our edge-out vintages, which continue to be increasingly productive. As we said before, we believe the performance from our edge-out investments reflects the strength of our core business. and supports our confidence in our ability to grow penetration quickly in future greenfield markets. This morning, in a separate press release, we announced that we are doubling our greenfield expansion plans for homes passed to 400,000 by 2027, a 21% increase to our current footprint, and now expect to invest a total of $400 million as a part of this process. The increase reflects the momentum we're seeing in Central Florida, where we identified an additional 50,000 homes, and our latest greenfield market, Greenville County, South Carolina, where we plan to add nearly 30,000 homes past. The combined success of our efforts in Central Florida and South Carolina led us to increase our investment plans and long-term targets, which John will review in his comments. We are also quickly moving forward with our entrance into the mobile market with WOW Mobile powered by Reach. We are on target to officially launch the offering in one of our southern markets later this month, followed by an enterprise-wide launch earlier in the third quarter. We're excited to provide our customers additional flexibility to stay connected on a reliable, no-contract cell phone plan with unlimited talk and text. Our partnership with REACH enables WOW to quickly enter the mobile market with minimal operational or developmental work on our part. We believe this additional service offering will further enhance customer acquisition and retention while providing a great service that our customers have been looking for. To conclude, I'm pleased with our first quarter results. A strong start to the year and our significantly increased expectations of our greenfield plans. Well, 2021 capped off a significant transformation of the company. 2022 is the beginning of the next stage of our continued growth through the execution of our broadband-first strategy as a low-leverage, high-growth company. We're excited about the opportunity in front of us as we drive further growth in our organic footprint, including both residential and commercial customers, and expanding our footprint through self-funding Greenfield Builds. Now I'll turn the call over to John, who will go over our financial results in more detail.
spk07: Thanks, Teresa. Our first quarter delivered solid results as we continued to execute on our broadband first strategy and make progress on the opportunities ahead. In the first quarter, total revenue declined 3.8% to $174.6 million, reflecting a 3.6% increase in high-speed data revenue, more than offset by declines in video and telephony, which decreased 13.8% and 11.3%, respectively. The growth in HSD revenue is predominantly driven by the addition of new customers, as well as existing customers buying higher speed tiers, which has pushed our proforma-adjusted EBITDA up 7.8% from the same period last year to $66.4 million. On the next slide, we continue to see our incremental contribution margin increase on a year-over-year basis as a result of the favorable shift in our base to HSD-only customers. Incremental contribution margin increased 520 basis points from the same period last year, but modestly declined from last quarter, largely due to the first quarter annual programming rate increase for our video subscribers. Margin expansion, paired with operational cost efficiencies, has driven our pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin to 38%. Now for a progress update on our cost structure alignment following the divestiture of the five service areas. As of the first quarter, we cut an additional $1.4 million out of the business, bringing our total savings to $10.7 million. This represents approximately 30% of the $35 million we identified for reduction over the next few years. These reductions in our costs are primarily from a decrease in headcount as well as costs incurred in services related to the TSAs as part of the divestitures. The latter are also reflected in our SG&A as we continue to incur the expense but are reimbursed for the costs which are presented in other income. We're encouraged by the pace of the reductions in our cost base. We ended the quarter with total cash of $190.7 million and total outstanding debt of $751.2 million, resulting in a pro forma leverage ratio of 2.6 times adjusting for cash held for taxes related to the transactions. Approximately $140 million of taxes were paid in April, which will be reflected in our second quarter financials. In the first quarter, Our capex from continuing operations decreased by $1.9 million from the same period last year to $42.1 million. This improvement is primarily due to decreased spend of CPE and service enhancements, offset by investments made in expansion capex, primarily supporting the growth of our commercial opportunities. If you look at the right side of the slide, our first quarter results for unlevered adjusted free cash flow, which we defined as pro forma adjusted EBITDA less capex, increased to $24.3 million, up $6.7 million from the same period last year, setting a path to fund the ramp of Greenfield investment later this year. Finally, before we open up the call for questions, I want to talk about our updated long-term targets and our outlook for the second quarter. This morning, we announced that we are doubling our plans for the greenfield expansion to 400,000 homes passed by 2027. We'll be able to fund this growth utilizing cash from operations and do not anticipate having to increase our leverage. We're really pleased with the progress we've been making in executing our greenfield plans and the speed with which we have identified our future markets. We'll be increasing the amount of allocated capital from $200 million to $400 million. As a result of this increased investment, we're also updating and increasing the long-term targets that we set at our investor day. Although our expansion capital expectations for this year will not change, the average annual spend for 2023 to 2025 will increase to slightly more than $100 million per year. We now expect the CAGR for HSC revenue to be between 11% and 12%, up from the previous target of 9% to 10%. The CAGR for total revenue will increase to 2.5% to 3%, up from 1% to 1.5%, and the CAGR for adjusted EBITDA will increase to 10% to 11%, up from 8% to 9%. Now I'd like to discuss our outlook for the second quarter and full year. We expect HSD revenue to be between $104 and $107 million, total revenue to be between $177 and $180 million, and adjusted EBITDA to be between $68 and $71 million. We also expect HST net additions to be between $1,000 and $2,000. For the full year, we're maintaining the guidance we set last quarter, with HST revenue expected to be between $427 and $430 million, total revenue to be between $708 and $711 million, and pro forma adjusted EBITDA to be between $281 and $284 million. We also continue to expect HSD net ads to be between 14 and 17,000 for the year. Our guidance across these metrics are in line with today's updated long-term targets. In closing, this was another strong quarter for WOW. We're thrilled about the growth ahead as we continue to make good progress in executing our broadband first strategy, expanding on our momentum, and delivering strong results. And now we would like to open up the line for questions.
spk02: As a reminder, to ask a question, simply press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. Our first question will come from the line of Cutgun Merle with RBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.
spk05: Great, thanks. Good morning, and thanks for taking the questions. A few, if I could. First, on broadband subscriber trends, can you talk a bit more about the underlying dynamics you saw in Q1, and what's driving your expectations for the 1 to 2,000 net ads in 2Q? And perhaps most importantly, based on your guidance, What's giving you the confidence that you could see the acceleration from the first half of the year into the back half of the year? And then just on the greenfield expansion plans, I think it's encouraging to see the rent investment and doubling of expected homes pass from 200 to 400,000 at the analyst day last December. you had already somewhat signal that you could envision a path to expanding homes past with green fields to 400,000 or more. So presumably back then you had some sense that there was scope to increase your targets. So I guess the question is, as you look ahead, would you expect to stay at the 400,000 range or are you in this constant state of evaluating additional markets, which might result in continued increases in the total target? Thanks.
spk03: Thanks, Ketkin. I'll go ahead and start off. First of all, on broadband subscribers, we were very encouraged by what we saw out of the gates in the first quarter. This was a significant uptick from what we saw in the fourth quarter last year. And I think what we're really seeing is how well WoW can compete in the marketplace. for what customers are looking for, which of course is our speed and our reliability, but also making sure we have that strong value. We provide a choice to the other alternatives in the market, and we do that really by being easy to do business with, and that really shows itself by not having contracts, the ability to have self-install, and many of our installations are also same day. So those really resonate with the customers in the marketplace. So that's why I think those are some of the drivers of why customers come to WOW. As we look at the second quarter, I really believe that we're starting to return to some normal seasonality at second quarter in our industry. If you go back a couple years, back when things were a bit more normal, um the second quarter would usually step down a bit as kids come home from school back in with parents and so we think that normal seasonality is more likely to happen we have confidence in the second half of the year once again because of that seasonality but also because of the way that uh wow competes in the marketplace like i mentioned We also are seeing with the addition of our mobile launch that happens later this month and then rolling out to more markets later this year, that will give us added competitiveness. We're also continuing to see more green shoots on the commercial side of the business. And I really believe as we launch more new products in the commercial space as well, all those things really give us confidence for our full year numbers. So then turning to Greenfield, the second question that you have there, we are encouraged by what we're seeing and decided to step up to the 400,000 homes passed by 2027. You're right. We did say that we were thinking about that back on Investor Day. And everything that we've seen in the market has just reinforced what a great decision that will be. And I would certainly point to the great penetration growth that we're seeing in the edge outs, especially the most recent vintage of 2021. Right now, what we're trying to do is continue to fund Greenfield through our free cash flow. And we think 400,000 homes passed feels about right for that, but certainly we'll always be opportunistic and continue to look further. And John, is there anything else you'd like to add on that?
spk07: Yeah, sure. So, I mean, again, the idea here is that we fund it from the cash flow that the business can produce. But on the other side of the boundary is this concept of leverage. So, as you recall from Investor Day, I suggested the board sort of mandated that we never go above three and a half times. We're at 2.6 times now. So, if there was some amazing opportunity, we could think about it then. But for now, we're looking at 400,000 homes, and we'll fund the build out of that from the cash that we generate.
spk05: Thank you both. That's very helpful. And if I could just sneak in one more on maybe M&A. You clearly had a very transformative 2021 with asset sales. Do you see additional opportunities in today's environment for any sort of M&A?
spk03: You know, right now we are just so excited and focused on running the business, executing on the plans we have within our organic footprint, as well as what we're doing with Greenfield. So we're just excited by what's ahead for WOW.
spk05: That's great. Thank you.
spk02: Your next question will come from the line of Batya Levi with UBS. Please go ahead.
spk11: Thank you. A few questions on the cost side. Can you talk about what you're seeing in the current environment and the impact of inflation on the business versus your expectations? And two other cost items potentially, the ramp-up in mobile costs, is there a way to quantify and when you think that will peak? And any plans to accelerate the exit of the video service so that we can see the ramp in contribution margin even more? Thank you.
spk03: Sure. John and I will tag team on this, Bakya. Thanks for the question. First of all, on inflation, I would say, you know, our costs I feel like we maintain extremely well. And John talked a little bit about some of the costs we're taking out of the business on overhead as well. That allows us to continue to have very attractive prices for our customers and be the best value in the marketplace. On the mobile cost, I'll talk about that briefly and touch on each of your questions and hand it over to John. But on mobile, the way that we are getting into the mobile business is really very low cost, low operational impact to us. We're working with our partner, Reach Mobile, who is doing their core business, which is a lot of the heavy lifting for us. So it really is not a big cost to us, but allows us to offer another service to our customers that they're asking us for and trust us to provide. So I think it's very positive the way that we've approached that. And then finally, taking those video costs out of the business has been a core strategy of WOW since we went with the strategy of broadband first at the beginning of 2020. And customers of their own volition are continuing to cut the video cord and buying bigger broadband packages. That's why over 50% of our new customers are now buying 500 meg services. and looking at streaming services. So that trend is continuing. As customers shift to more broadband and away from video, that decreases costs in our business. With that said, we still continue to provide video services to those customers who want to have a pay TV or curated service. And there are costs that go up from the programmers, and we do have to pass on those costs. John?
spk07: Yeah, just jumping in quickly about on the mobile piece. The way this is structured, for a modest amount of money, we set up a program with REACH. There are no ongoing costs. It's a rev share. So as we start to see this come in in Q2, when we're launching in the end of this month, we'll be just booking our rev share into the other revenue line items. So there's no specific cost that's associated with that. I think that's one. On the inflation impact, I mean, I'm sure inflation impacts everything. Interestingly enough, there's a lot of government programs out there that will give people some relief. So it hasn't really negatively impacted us at this time, but, you know, certainly we're abreast of the issue and we'll keep on top of it.
spk11: Great. Thank you. Maybe just a quick follow-up on the CapEx commentary you gave. Can you just clarify if you expect the pacing to be pretty linear exiting this year as you double the original footprint? And just if you could go for sort of CapEx targets over the next few years.
spk07: yeah so i think uh after the first part of that is yes i think after we get through this year it should be the pay should be more linear because this is the first greenfield year you know the bulk of that sort of expansion capex uh which we pegged it excuse me uh 80 million dollars for this year is going to come in the second half of the year as we start to do the building the first part of the year with greenfields was identifying the properties and doing some of the upfront permitting and all that kind of stuff uh when we look at the um CapEx going forward, the three-year average spend on CapEx is going to be approximately $225 million on average per year, of which about $104 million, $105 million of that will be for growth. Growth here is greenfields plus edge-out plus commercial, and the biggest part of growth will be greenfields. And that will be more linear as we go forward because the properties have been identified and the crews can start doing what they have to do.
spk11: Great. And final one for me. Do you see any opportunity to talk into state funds as you build Green Peel?
spk03: We really aren't targeting those areas as our top criteria. So certainly we will be opportunistic if some of those arise. But we're sticking to the criteria in those areas where we know we can be most successful and penetrate the customer base and really provide customers with an alternative rapidly.
spk11: Thank you so much.
spk02: Thanks, Barbara. Your next question will come from the line of Frank Lowden with Raymond James. Please go ahead.
spk09: Great. Thank you. I want to talk a little bit about competition in the market. There's a concern in the market that increased competition for new entrances. going to drive pricing down and impairing terminal multiples. Since we've been in the business of taking care of cable for over two decades, I wanted to see what you think of this. Can you give us an idea of how much pricing changes when you enter a market, what you're modeling for ARPU when you enter it, and what do you see in the real world from incumbents from a pricing perspective when you come into the market?
spk03: Yeah, thanks for the question, Frank. You're right. It's really been the DNA of WOW for the 22 years we've been in business to be the challenger brand and come in and really give customers a choice to have much more competition in the marketplace. We have value pricing that is generally a bit lower than the others that are in the marketplace, and that resonates with customers. But what really has customers stick with us and why we have such low churn are the speed, the reliability, and the suite of services that we have, along with how easy we are to do business with, and that's what keeps customers with us. So when we go into a new market, what's nice about the revisions we've done to our billing systems, consolidating down to one billing system, we now have the capability of being even more hyper-local with pricing and with packages to make sure that we can be competitive, whatever the dynamics are of the local market. As we look at Greenfield, we're going into markets that have traditionally not had so much competition, and so we'll be bringing that new dynamic. I can't say that we've seen in, for example, edged areas, it's really a lot of immediate reaction from competitors coming in. But the nice thing about WOW is that we can always be nimble if that arises. Does that answer your question, Frank?
spk09: Yeah, no, that's great. I mean, you say you're coming a little cheaper. I mean, is that, you know, a few 2% or 3% cheaper or 20% cheaper? What do you think you need to do to get people's attention on the pricing front? I mean, it sounds like it's more of an offering and service-based decision, but can you be a little bit more specific on the pricing front?
spk03: Yeah, I'd say, you know, it varies because pricing is always dynamic with promotions and all the different things that are out there, but I'd say we're probably 5% to 10%. cheaper usually. They make sure we're competitive with the offerings, with the service, with everything. It's that whole bundle. Okay. Yeah, so don't have contracts. And to be clear, we don't require customers to bundle it with video, which most of our competitors do. Okay. That's a key point.
spk09: All right.
spk02: Thank you. Thanks. Your next question will come from the line of Brandon Nispel with KeyBank Capital Markets. Please go ahead.
spk10: Thanks for taking the questions. A couple of quick ones. You talked about some HST ARPU pressure from promotions sequentially this quarter. Can you maybe outline how you expect HST ARPU to trend throughout the rest of the year? Then maybe on that point, you made a point to call out your mix of 200 meg and above customers. I'm curious if you could share what your gigabit selling is today and how you see that trending over the course of the year and maybe over the next couple of years. Thanks.
spk03: Thanks, Brandon. Yes, on HSD ARPU, yeah, it went down a bit sequentially, and really that's because of some of these competitive promotions that we're doing, really trying to gain share, and we are a share taker in the marketplace. So that is one thing with all the advertising that goes on about broadband promotions that all of our competitors do. It causes customers to look around and see what alternatives are out there, and that's good for us. because we always compete very well. When I look ahead for HSDR2 for the rest of the year, I think it will probably start to pick up again a bit as we see uh customers continuing to take those higher speeds and as you pointed out we are having over 50 percent now of our customers their new customers taking the 500 meg service and many of those are taking one gig we usually don't call that number out specifically but it's um most of our customers now are 200 meg and above and then um the majority over 50 percent are taking 500 meg And we just like to keep moving them up so they have that great customer experience. John, anything else you want to add? Because I know there's some accounting rules in there that make ARPU change a bit sometimes, too.
spk07: Yes. We're also always fighting the AFC 606 complicated calculations, which did have a modest effect on ARPU. But, yeah, it's been predominantly some promotional activity, not so number down a bit. But from where we're sitting right now, it looks like we have a chance to stabilize and start going up again. Thank you.
spk02: Your next question will come from the line of Dan day with the Riley securities. Please go ahead.
spk08: Yeah. Morning everybody. Thank you for taking my questions this morning. Um, so Luke, just given you're so early in the screen field build, um, and you've really ramped it up here. Maybe if you could just give us a little more detail on, what it was that you've seen so far, any data points or just general commentary on what you've seen with your existing Greenfield that led you to double it?
spk03: Sure. I'm happy to talk about that, Dan. So our criteria when we first launched Greenfield and started talking about it back at the end of last year is that we really looked across the whole continental U.S., looked at markets with good population, demographics, as well as a less competitive industry dynamic and intensity in those markets. And then we overlaid with that our understanding of the cost to build, our assumptions on ARPU and our penetration, and all of this is with a targeted IRR in mind. So those are the kind of broad-based criteria that we use. As we've looked more closely and gotten to know the community of Orange County and Seminole County and Florida better and really understood the mix of households there, we were thrilled to be able to say, wow, there's another 50,000 homes passed that we'd be delighted to serve in this market. So that takes that market alone up to 150,000. In addition, we really were impressed. by the market of Greenville County, South Carolina, and are delighted to add them to our mix as well. So that's 180,000 homes passed that we've identified already. And as we look down our list of opportunities, we just see a lot of opportunities. Right now I'd say our biggest limiting factor is really how much we can do and stay with our criteria of funding it through free cash flow and staying under the leverage ratios that John was talking about. But we're very encouraged by what we're seeing and the receptiveness within those local communities.
spk08: Great. Thank you. It's been a while since we've got an update on the formerly EBV program. Now I think it's the Affordable Connectivity Program with the infrastructure bill. Just any commentary on how subscribers are trending from that program?
spk03: Yeah, thanks for asking. We're very excited about the Affordable Connectivity Program, and it's actually being highlighted today in Washington, D.C., here at the White House. I'm actually in town for that today. And we've continued to see that program grow and offer customers who would have difficulty affording broadband a $30 subsidy per month. We now have over 11,000 customers who are active on either the EBB or ACP program now, and that's up 1,500 since last quarter. We overall have actually over 17,000 customers that we have supported on this, but some of those have now transitioned via the two transactions we did last year to Astound and BreezeLine. So those customers are now being cared for by those companies. But we definitely feel like this is a great program to make sure that the digital divide isn't happening and that people can continue to work and learn from home as they need to.
spk08: Awesome. Well, I appreciate you taking the questions, and I'll turn it over.
spk02: Thanks. Your next question will come from the line of Matthew Harrigan with Benchmark. Please go ahead.
spk01: Thank you. I was curious. I'm sure you're not going to go through the full algo of the 50 or 60 variables or whatever it is, but what's really come to surprise you? I mean, clearly there's a nice concentration of Florida and the Sun Belt with Greenville, but are you – You're running this, I guess, through some sort of logistic regression where you've got some qualitative variables as well as quantitative variables. And if you had just infinite capital from private equity, maybe not infinite, do you think there's just a really, really broad swathe of opportunities? Or even from your vantage point, even if it was like 10% or 15% of the U.S., it would be an immense opportunity. But do you really think that this is – an opportunity for the picking across a really large segment of the U.S. cable market, maybe outside the largest metropolitan areas. Thank you.
spk03: Thanks, Matt. Absolutely, I believe that. And our appetite and aspirations are much bigger than what we're even talking here. We can definitely see many communities that have demographics and costs and regulatory environment and all the things that we look at that would allow us to come in and be an alternative and a challenge to operators in other markets. And we feel like that would be very successful. So, Yes, we think the opportunity is much bigger than even the $400,000 here, but we're going to be judicious and good stewards of the CapEx that we have and make sure that we're getting the right return for our investors along the way.
spk07: Perfect. Thank you.
spk02: Your next question will come from the line of Grant Johnson with Credit Suisse. Please go ahead.
spk04: Good morning. Two questions for me. First, this year we've seen some broadband providers switch from year one promo pricing followed by a year two step up over to simpler pricing with a higher initial price but no step up for year two. Is the kind of promo and step up pricing construct still the right model for WOW? And then second, I was wondering, is AT&T's U-verse price increase this month an opportunity for you to try and learn away some of that customer base? Thanks.
spk03: Well, thanks, Grant, for the questions. We have a variety of promotions and just very solid value everyday pricing as well for our customers. So the promotions vary a lot by competitor, by market, and so it varies. But we generally provide great value. value for our customers throughout the duration of their time with us, and I think that's evidenced by how low our churn has been. It's record low. It's stayed low. Customers come to WOW and then just stay with us for the long term. In terms of AT&T, we compete against AT&T every day, so Every change they may make or a price increase certainly gives us just yet another reason that we can lure those customers away and take share. So certainly all those things give us an opportunity, and WOW is very nimble and agile and really understands what each of our competitors are doing in each of our markets and makes sure that we know what our alternative for those customers are to be able to bring them over to WOW.
spk04: Makes sense. Thanks so much.
