We believe Charter and Disney have come to a reasonable agreement to restore most Disney television channels to Charter customers. Disney is taking its first step in more closely tying its streaming strategy to the traditional television business. We expect other media firms will follow suit in the coming months to slow the decline of the traditional television customer base, which still delivers the majority of profits across the media industry.
Charter is the product of the 2016 merger of three cable companies, each with a decades-long history in the business: Legacy Charter, Time Warner Cable, and Bright House Networks. The firm now holds networks capable of providing television, internet access, and phone services to roughly 56 million U.S. homes and businesses, around 40% of the country. Across this footprint, Charter serves 30 million residential and 2 million commercial customer accounts under the Spectrum brand, making it the second-largest U.S. cable company behind Comcast. The firm also owns, in whole or in part, sports and news networks, including Spectrum SportsNet (long-term local rights to Los Angeles Lakers games), SportsNet LA (Los Angeles Dodgers), SportsNet New York (New York Mets), and Spectrum News NY1.

CHTR’s market cap is 65.86 Bil.
Market capitalization is calculated by taking a company’s share price and multiplying it by the total number of shares.
It’s often used to measure a company’s size. In the Morningstar Style Box, large-cap names account for the
largest 70% of U.S. stocks, mid-cap names account for the largest 70–90%, and small-cap names are the remaining 10% of companies.

CHTR’s stock style is Large Value.
Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns.
Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.
High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.

CHTR’s price/sales is 1.25.
Price/sales represents the amount an investor is willing to pay for a dollar generated from
a particular company’s sales or revenues.
CHTR’s price/forward earnings is 14.79.
Forward P/E gives some indication of how cheap or expensive a stock is compared with consensus earnings estimates.

CHTR’s price/book is 6.30.
Price/book ratio can tell investors approximately how much they’re paying for a company’s assets,
based on historical, rather than current, valuations. Historical valuations generally do not reflect
a company’s current market value. Value investors frequently look for companies that have low price/book ratios.
