CHTR — dividend update
Dated 2026-10-27
REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE. On October 27, 2026, the Company issued a press release (the “press release”) announcing that its board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend which will be payable on January 15, 2027 to stockholders of record of the Company’s Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at the close of business on December 31, 2026. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this
Why it matters: Internet customers fell by 172,000 in Q2. A larger Q3 loss would deepen pressure on customer and revenue trends.
Worry ifQ3 results show internet customers down by more than 172,000 for the quarter.
Less concerning ifQ3 internet customer losses are below 172,000, or the customer count grows.
Why it matters: Video losses slowed to 21,000 in Q2 from 80,000 a year earlier. A return to larger losses would weaken signs that new packages are helping.
Worry ifQ3 results show more than 21,000 fewer video customers for the quarter.
Less concerning ifQ3 video customer losses are 21,000 or fewer, or the customer count grows.
Why it matters: Adjusted EBITDA fell 4.3% in Q2. A steeper drop would point to more pressure from lower revenue and Cox transition costs.
Worry ifQ3 adjusted EBITDA is down more than 4.3% year over year.
Less concerning ifQ3 adjusted EBITDA is flat or higher year over year, or its decline is smaller than 4.3%.
Why it matters: Mobile lines grew by 406,000 in Q2, but adds were lower than a year earlier. Faster growth would support Charter's mobile expansion priority.
Supportive ifQ3 results report more than 406,000 net mobile line adds.
Worry ifQ3 results report 406,000 or fewer net mobile line adds.
