Charter Communications: Growth And Debt Are Problems
Charter's Q2 results disappointed as subscriber losses and declining free cash flow overshadowed modest mobile growth and management's future promises. Despite a seemingly cheap valuation, I can't justify investing due to high debt, no dividend, and no near-term catalysts for growth. Management's focus on future free cash flow, CapEx normalization, and the Cox deal feels like more promises without immediate impact.

Charter Communications: Fear Reaches Extreme Levels (Upgrade)
Charter Communications, Inc.'s Q2 results disappointed, with weak earnings and subscriber losses, intensifying market fears about secular decline and erasing recent share gains. Despite ongoing Internet and video subscriber losses, free cash flow remains robust, supported by pricing power and aggressive share buybacks. Valuation is now deeply discounted, with shares offering an 11% free cash flow yield and 16% upside even under conservative assumptions.
