Best Ever Overall Subscriber Performance, Including First Quarter of Positive Video Net Additions Since 2009

NEW YORK — Time Warner Cable Inc. (NYSE:TWC) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Residential video net additions in the quarter were 30,000 – the first positive quarterly net additions since the first quarter of 2009.

Residential video revenue decreased primarily due to a year-over-year decline in video subscribers (despite positive video subscriber net additions in the first quarter of 2015), partially offset by an increase in average revenue per subscriber primarily as a result of price increases and higher premium network revenue.
