Discovery Communications Reports First Quarter 2013 Results
SILVER SPRING, Md., May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
First Quarter 2013 Financial Highlights:
- Revenues increased 7% to $1,156 million
- Adjusted OIBDA decreased to $498 million (up 8% excluding licensing agreements and foreign currency)
- Net income increased 4% to $231 million
Discovery Communications, Inc. ("Discovery" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: DISCA, DISCB, DISCK) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
David Zaslav, Discovery's President and Chief Executive Officer said, "The significant operating momentum Discovery generated throughout 2012 continued unabated in the first quarter with more and more audiences around the globe viewing our unique programming. The sustained investment we have made in developing compelling content, along with the quality of our brands, translated into further market share gains, with record first quarter viewership at our domestic networks and 16% audience growth across our international portfolio. As we continue to invest in the organic growth opportunities our diverse distribution platform provides, we have also completed several strategic acquisitions which we expect will further broaden our asset mix around the world and bolster our long-term growth prospects. 2013 is off to a great start and with continued focus on strong operating execution, we anticipate building on the financial success we have achieved over the last several years while delivering significant shareholder value."
First Quarter Results
First quarter revenues of $1,156 million were up $71 million, or 7%, compared to the first quarter a year ago, led by 17% growth at International Networks and 1% growth at U.S. Networks which included the impact of additional licensing revenues in the prior year. Adjusted Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization (1) ("OIBDA") declined by 2% to $498 million, as an 8% increase at International Networks was offset by a decrease of 5% at U.S. Networks due to the additional licensing revenue in last year's quarter. Excluding the impact of licensing agreements and foreign currency, total company revenues increased 12% and Adjusted OIBDA increased 8%.
First quarter net income available to Discovery Communications, Inc. stockholders of $231 million ($0.63 per diluted share) increased $10 million compared to $221 million ($0.57 per diluted share) for the first quarter a year ago, primarily due to the strong underlying operating performance in the current year's quarter as well as a $92 million gain associated with the consolidation of Discovery Japan and $46 million of improved equity earnings, partially offset by higher taxes, increased mark-to-market equity-based compensation and $59 million of losses from hedging activities primarily associated with the acquisition of the SBS Nordic operations.
Free cash flow was $105 million for the first quarter, a decrease of $122 million from the first quarter of 2012, due to higher content investment as well as increased tax and long-term incentive compensation payments. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less acquisitions of property and equipment.

First Quarter Results
U.S. Networks' revenues in the first quarter of 2013 increased 1% to $686 million, as advertising growth was mostly offset by a decline in distribution revenue. Advertising revenue increased 8% primarily as a result of higher delivery and increased pricing. Distribution revenue decreased 9% as higher rates and subscriber growth primarily from networks carried on the digital tier were more than offset by additional revenues from licensing agreements in the first quarter of 2012. Excluding the $45 million impact from licensing revenues, distribution revenues grew 6% and total revenues grew 8% compared with the first quarter a year ago.
Adjusted OIBDA decreased 5% to $377 million, primarily reflecting the impact of licensing agreements in the prior year as well as higher operating expenses, mainly due to increased content amortization and personnel costs. Excluding the impact of licensing agreements, Adjusted OIBDA grew 6% over last year's first quarter.

First Quarter Results
International Networks' revenues for the first quarter increased 17% to $444 million primarily led by advertising revenue growth of 23% and distribution revenue growth of 15%. Excluding foreign currency fluctuations, total revenues were up 18%. Distribution revenue in local currency terms grew 16% mainly from increased subscribers across a majority of international regions, most notably Latin America, as well as from additional contributions due to the consolidation of Discovery Japan. Advertising revenue excluding foreign currency was up 25% primarily due to higher pricing and increased viewership across most international markets as well as from contributions from newly acquired networks in Western Europe.
Adjusted OIBDA increased 8% to $184 million, reflecting the 17% revenue growth partially offset by a 24% increase in operating expenses. The higher operating expenses were primarily due to increased content amortization and personnel costs as well as expenses associated with consolidating Discovery Japan and the acquisition of new networks in Western Europe. Excluding foreign currency, Adjusted OIBDA was up 13% over the prior year's quarter.

First Quarter Results
Education revenues increased $3 million and Adjusted OIBDA increased $1 million from the first quarter of 2012, mainly reflecting increased streaming volumes as well as higher digital textbook sales.
Corporate and Eliminations
For the first quarter of 2013 Adjusted OIBDA decreased $6 million, primarily due to increased compensation expense and additional costs associated with the acquisition of the SBS Nordic operations.
OTHER ITEMS
In March 2013, Discovery Communications, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, completed the issuance of $350 million 3.250% Senior Notes due 2023 and $850 million 4.875% Senior Notes due 2043, for total net proceeds of $1.2 billion. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.
On April 9, 2013 the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of the SBS Nordic operations from ProSiebenSat.1 Group for approximately $1.8 billion.
STOCK REPURCHASE
Following the quarter, from April 1, 2013 through May 1, 2013 the Company, pursuant to its existing stock repurchase program, repurchased 2.25 million shares of its Series C common stock at an average price of $70.80 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $159 million. Additionally, the Company repurchased 4 million shares of Series C convertible preferred stock for $256 million, or $64.10 per share, from Advance Programming Holdings, LLC on April 5, 2013.
The Company has repurchased 58.94 million shares of Series C common stock and 1.99 million shares of its Series A common stock under its $4.0 billion stock repurchase program to date at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.64 billion. In aggregate, including the 17.73 million preferred shares acquired outside of the stock repurchase program from Advance/Newhouse and Advance Programming, LLC, the Company has repurchased 18% of the shares outstanding since buyback activity was authorized in 2010.
Under the stock repurchase program, management is authorized to purchase shares from time to time through open market purchases at prevailing prices or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and other factors.
FULL YEAR 2013 OUTLOOK
For the full year ending December 31, 2013, Discovery Communications, Inc. expects total revenue between $5.575 billion and $5.700 billion, Adjusted OIBDA between $2.425 billion and $2.525 billion, and net income available to Discovery Communications, Inc. stockholders of $1.200 billion to $1.300 billion. Our updated outlook incorporates the later closing of the SBS transaction, current foreign exchange rates for revenues and expenses and the current share price for mark-to-market equity-based compensation calculations.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Adjusted OIBDA and Free Cash Flow
In addition to the results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") provided in this release, the Company has presented Adjusted OIBDA and free cash flow. The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based on financial measures such as revenues and adjusted operating income before depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted OIBDA"). Adjusted OIBDA is defined as revenues less costs of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses excluding: (i) mark-to-market equity-based compensation, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) amortization of deferred launch incentives, (iv) exit and restructuring charges, (v) certain impairment charges, and (vi) gains and losses on business and asset dispositions. The Company uses this measure to assess operating results and performance of its segments, perform analytical comparisons, identify strategies to improve performance and allocate resources to each segment. The Company believes Adjusted OIBDA is relevant to investors because it allows them to analyze the operating performance of each segment using the same metric management uses. The Company excludes mark-to-market equity-based compensation, exit and restructuring charges, certain impairment charges, and gains and losses on business and asset dispositions from the calculation of Adjusted OIBDA due to their volatility. The Company also excludes depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets and deferred launch incentives, as these amounts do not represent cash payments in the current reporting period.
The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less acquisitions of property and equipment. The Company uses free cash flow as it believes it is an important indicator for management and investors of the Company's liquidity, including its ability to reduce debt, make strategic investments and return capital to stockholders.
Adjusted OIBDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP measures, and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Please review the supplemental financial schedules beginning on page 9 for reconciliations to GAAP measures.
