Liberty Global adds 1 million digital cable customers in 2011

ENGLEWOOD, Colorado — Liberty Global, Inc. (“Liberty Global,” “LGI,” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LBTYA, LBTYB and LBTYK), today announces financial and operating results for the year and the three months (“Q4”) ended December 31, 2011.

Subscriber Statistics

At December 31, 2011, we provided a total of 32.8 million subscription services (RGUs), consisting of 18.4 million video, 8.2 million broadband internet and 6.2 million telephony RGUs, to our 19.5 million unique customers. In 2011, we grew our RGU base by 21% or 5.8 million RGUs, including 4.6 million RGUs from acquisitions, primarily KBW in Germany and Aster in Poland, and 1.2 million RGUs from organic growth. Including acquisitions, our bundled customer base increased 27% to 8.1 million over the last twelve months, resulting in 41% of our customers subscribing to multiple services. As a result of our marketing emphasis, 84% of the increase in bundled customers was attributable to growth in our triple-play subscriptions.

In terms of our video business, we lost 307,000 customers in 2011, an 18% improvement compared to our video losses in the prior year. During the year, we continued to focus on upselling our analog video customers to digital, as we added 282,000 and 1.0 million digital cable subscribers for the three months and year ended December 31, 2011, respectively. We finished 2011 with a digital cable base of 8.2 million RGUs and digital penetration11 of 46%, up modestly from 44% at year-end 2010, due largely to the inclusion of the lower digital penetration of KBW, which was only 11% at the date of acquisition. Our continued emphasis on HD and DVR services12 has been an important factor in driving both digital penetration and video ARPU, and in 2011, we added an aggregate 1.1 million HD and/or DVR subscribers, expanding the penetration of our digital cable base to approximately 50%.
