Warnings

⚠ Debt is 4.6x annual operating profit. Because the company carries so much debt, even small shifts in business value cause big swings in the stock price.

⚠ Only 21% of operating profit turns into actual cash for shareholders. Big investments and interest payments consume most of what the business earns.

ℹ We value this business based on total operating profit relative to total enterprise value (debt + equity). Profit-per-share metrics are unreliable when debt makes up most of the company's value.

ℹ Wall Street's average price target is $162.90 (from 56 analysts). Our estimate is 271% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

Debt refinancing at higher rates compresses equity value quickly
EBITDA flatters — capex, interest, and taxes eat the cash flow
Cord-cutting and wireless substitution are structural headwinds for cable
