2. Caution Concerning Forward Looking
Statements and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Today’s presentation includes forward looking statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995; particularly statements regarding future financial and operating results
of the Company and its businesses. These statements are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs,
and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances.
Actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied by the statements, due to changes in economic,
business, competitive, technological, strategic or regulatory factors, the planned separation of Time Warner Cable from
the Company, and factors affecting the operations of the businesses of Time Warner.
More detailed information about these factors may be found in filings by Time Warner with the SEC, including its most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q in the sections entitled “Caution Concerning
Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.” Time Warner is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any
such obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.
Today’s presentation also includes information regarding the historical financial performance through December 31,
2008 of Time Warner and its reporting segments and its expectations regarding future performance, including
historical financial performance as reflected in non-GAAP financial measures such as Operating Income before
Depreciation and Amortization, Adjusted Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization, Free Cash Flow and
Adjusted EPS. Please note that schedules setting out the reconciliation of these and other historical non-GAAP
financial measures to operating income and cash provided by operations or other most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures, as applicable, are included in the trending schedules posted on the Company’s Web site at
www.timewarner.com/investors and, as applicable, also are included in the Company’s earnings release for the quarter
