Stable to growing revenue across our FMC markets and continued Adjusted EBITDA growth at VMO2¹

Price adjustments, merger synergies and continued innovation expected to support robust operational trends

Executing on long-term fixed network strategies with Telenet announcing NetCo partnership in Belgium, and fiber plans progressing in the U.K. and Ireland

Stock buyback accelerating with announcement to increase 2022 program by $400 million to ~$1.7 billion

Confirming all full-year 2022 guidance targets

Liberty Global plc today announced its Q2 2022 financial results.

CEO Mike Fries stated, “Despite an increasingly difficult macroeconomic environment developing throughout the second quarter, demand for connectivity remains high and we are well positioned to execute on our strategic and financial goals. In each of our core operating markets, we remain focused on product innovation and offering the best value for our customers, especially as they manage through the effects of increased living costs. At the same time, we are proactively addressing the impacts on our costs while supporting our network investments across fixed and mobile.

In Q2, we delivered aggregate² broadband and postpaid mobile net add growth underpinned mostly by positive postpaid mobile trends and a return to broadband growth in the U.K. Financially, with price adjustments beginning to support top-line trends, we reported stable revenue across our FMC markets. Synergies supported Adjusted EBITDA trends in Switzerland and the U.K., where the continued growth of VMO2¹ was the highlight of the quarter. Looking ahead to H2, the realization of synergies is expected to continue driving cash flow growth in the U.K., while recent price adjustments in the Netherlands and Belgium should support improved financial results in both markets.

Our continued focus on innovation is driving unique FMC product and bundling strategies that not only differentiate us from the competition, but also generate higher NPS, lower churn, and support ARPUs. In Switzerland, our new Sunrise UP converged bundles offer market-leading benefits such as multiple mobile sims with best-in-class speeds, underpinned by gigabit coverage for over 90% of Swiss households and the highest customer service and loyalty program in the country. In the U.K., we recently launched a new IP TV product called Stream that brings together linear, VOD and streaming services into one place and gives customers the flexibility to manage their monthly spend by easily adding and removing content. Initial customer reaction to both initiatives has been very encouraging with full marketing campaigns already underway at VMO2 and Sunrise.

We continue making progress with our network development strategies. Nearly 100% of our networks already offer gigabit speeds to customers today, and by utilizing a combination of the best upgrade technologies available, we will be able to offer up to 10 gig broadband speeds in all our markets. In Belgium, Telenet recently entered into an attractive agreement with Fluvius to create the data network of the future in Flanders. Both companies will combine their fixed network assets and create a new, independent and self-funding infrastructure company called “NetCo,” which will invest in the gradual evolution of its current HFC network to FTTH targeting 78% of the footprint by 2038.

We are reiterating all of our original, full-year guidance metrics, including $1.7 billion⁽ⁱ⁾ of Full Company³ Distributable Cash Flow⁴. This will be supported through significant adjusted free cash flow creation at Vodafone Ziggo and VMO2 and arranged financings. Liberty Global’s balance sheet remains strong with ~$4 billion⁽ⁱⁱ⁾ of cash and ~$6 billion of total liquidity⁵. As of today, we have substantially completed our annual buyback commitment of 10% of our shares outstanding. Given our strong cash flow generation and the compelling value in our stock at current prices, we are announcing today an increase to our 2022 buyback program of $400 million, bringing the total for the year to ~$1.7 billion.”

Q2 Operating Company Highlights

Sunrise (Consolidated)

Sunrise achieves key integration milestone; "Sunrise" becomes main brand. Sunrise UP portfolios launched, with integrated packages delivering greater value across customer segments. Sunrise expands fiber-access partnership with Swiss Fibre Net AG. Reiterates 2022 guidance

Operating highlights: Our Swiss operations continue to develop benefits from the acquisition of the Sunrise mobile business and its combination with our strong fixed network business. As a key integration milestone, we have introduced the 'Sunrise UP' portfolio, as Sunrise continues to generate value for its customer base through cross-sell opportunities and strong fixed mobile convergence (FMC) penetration. Sunrise also expanded the existing partnership with Swiss Fibre Net AG for the provision of FTTH access through wholesale access across Swiss households and businesses. Broadband performance was relatively stable with 2,000 broadband losses in Q2 being primarily driven by the phasing out of the UPC brand, impacting inflow volume ahead of the Sunrise rebranding. We maintained momentum in mobile postpaid, delivering 47,000 net adds in the quarter. With a strong mobile offering together with our powerful fixed line network, our FMC penetration remains high at 57% of the broadband base. We continue to be enthusiastic about our competitive position in Switzerland with the combination of the two companies, despite the competitive environment.

Financial highlights: Revenue of $766.1 million in Q2 2022 decreased 7.2% YoY on a reported basis and decreased 0.3% YoY on a rebased⁶ basis. The rebased decrease was largely driven by (i) a decrease in fixed subscription revenue due to ARPU pressures, partially offset by (i) strong trading momentum in Yallo and (ii) higher mobile revenue driven by an increase in subscribers and B2B volumes. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 7.4% on a reported basis and increased 0.5% on a rebased basis to $276.5 million in Q2 2022, including $20 million of opex costs to capture⁷. Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions of $164.9 million in Q2 decreased 5.5% YoY on a reported basis. On a rebased basis, Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions increased 4.3%, including $46 million of opex and capex costs to capture. While we are integrating the two businesses, costs to capture have short term impacts but are incurred to promote future synergies, more efficient operations and enhanced operations and profitability.

Telenet (Consolidated)

Completed the sale of the mobile tower business. Confirming 2022 Guidance

Operating highlights: Continued growth of the FMC customer base in Q2 2022 was driven by continued uptake of Telenet's "ONE(Up)" bundles, while lower market flux impacted net new subscriber growth of 8,000 postpaid mobile net additions, with annualized churn remaining at historically low levels. During Q2, Telenet completed the sale of its mobile tower business to DigitalBridge Group, Inc. Telenet also recently entered into a binding agreement with Fluvius to develop “the data network of the future” in Flanders. Both companies will contribute their fixed network assets to incorporate a new infrastructure company "NetCo" that will invest in the evolution of the current HFC network into a FTTH network.

Financial highlights: Reported and rebased revenue decreased 11.1% and increased 0.7%, respectively, to $689.1 million in Q2. The increase in rebased revenue was primarily driven by (i) higher mobile subscription revenue and (ii) an increase in business wholesale revenue, partially offset by lower fixed subscription revenue. Reported and rebased Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15.2% and 3.9%, respectively, to $330.3 million in Q2, reflecting the impact of higher inflation on energy costs and staff-related expenses as well as higher network operating costs. Reported and rebased Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions decreased 24.5% and 15.1%, respectively, to $190.1 million in Q2.

VMO2 (Non-consolidated Joint Venture)

The VMO2 JV delivers improved customer growth and accelerated investments

Operating highlights: The VMO2 JV has grown its fixed and mobile customer base once again as fast, reliable connectivity remains a top priority for consumers and businesses. The broadband base returned to growth with 16,000 net additions in Q2 driven by (i) growth in our Project Lightning new build program, (ii) strong trading following the Q1 price rise and (iii) continued demand for high-quality connectivity. Mobile postpaid continued to show growth with net adds of 13,000 during the quarter. Average speed across the company's broadband base increased 27% YoY and now reaches 247Mbps, almost 5x the national average. The company also launched 1Gbps speeds for small businesses - the fastest widely available business broadband in the U.K. - and continued to build momentum in the public sector. Investment in the U.K.'s digital infrastructure continues through Project Lightning, the completion of FTTP upgrade pilots during Q1 and the extension of 5G services expected to hit 50% coverage of the population by 2023.

Financial highlights (in U.S. GAAP): Revenue of $3,202.6 million was broadly flat YoY on an FX neutral pro forma basis¹, supported by the benefit of the fixed and mobile price rises. The YoY result was primarily driven by the net effect of (i) an increase in mobile revenue driven by improvements in both handset and service revenue and other revenue, (ii) a decrease in fixed revenue primarily driven by B2B where there was a high level of installation revenue within Wholesale in Q2 2021 and (iii) an increase in other revenue. Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.7% YoY on an FX neutral pro forma basis to $1,059.4 million, including $19 million of opex costs to capture, as a result of the flow through of price rises and the realization of synergies and cost efficiencies, partially offset by increased energy costs. Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions decreased 19.3%⁸ YoY on an FX neutral pro forma basis to $370.1 million, including $102 million of opex and capex costs to capture. P&E Additions increased 9.1% YoY to $689.3 million.

For more information regarding the VMO2 JV, including full IFRS disclosures, please visit their investor relations page to access the Q2 earnings release.

VodafoneZiggo (Non-consolidated Joint Venture)

Commercial Momentum Improved. Reconfirming 2022 guidance

Operating highlights: VodafoneZiggo continues to successfully execute its commercial strategy despite increased promotional intensity in the Dutch market, passing 2.5 million converged SIMs and 1.5 million converged households⁹ and continuing to drive improvement in Net Promoter Scores and reduce churn. VodafoneZiggo delivered 49,000 mobile postpaid additions in Q2, while stabilizing mobile postpaid ARPU. Broadband RGUs declined by 2,000 in Q2, an improvement of 15,000 compared to Q1. More than 6 million customer homes connected to Gigabit speeds. Successfully implemented an average 3.5% price increase as of July 2022 without a significant increase in churn.

Financial highlights: Revenue declined 12.3% on a reported basis and 0.7% on a rebased basis to $1,065.6 million in Q2. The relatively flat rebased result was primarily driven by a decline in the B2C fixed customer base, partially offset by mobile postpaid and B2B fixed customer base growth. Reported and rebased Adjusted EBITDA decreased 13.9% and 2.4%, respectively, to $490.9 million in Q2. The rebased decrease was primarily driven by the aforementioned revenue decline, higher energy and fuel costs related to inflation, partially offset by incremental cost efficiency measures. Reported and rebased Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions decreased 18.8% and 7.5%, respectively, to $238.8 million in Q2. The rebased decrease was primarily driven by lower Adjusted EBITDA and higher P&E additions.

Q2 ESG Highlights

In the area of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG), the focus in the second quarter was on reporting and disclosure, which resulted in the recent publication of our latest CR Report. The report highlights our achievements and initiatives for 2021 including awards won by our business, people reached with our initiatives, employee engagement, avoided carbon emissions, and many others. We also continued our initiatives to engage with our employees and communities across our Operating Companies. In Switzerland, "The Big Ride 2022" was a success, with over $1.5 million raised, and where more than 500 employee and partners participated in the challenge. The VMO2 JV released its new sustainability strategy, the “Better Connections Plan”, which sets out the company’s ambitious commitment to achieve net zero carbon across its operations, products and supply chain by the end of 2040. It is one of the first companies to work towards the Carbon Trust’s Route to Net Zero Standard and it joined the Climate Group’s EV100 initiative and The Climate Pledge – a collective of more than 300 organizations committed to climate action. The VMO2 JV also announced its ‘Response to cost-of-living crisis’, offering customers free roaming, monthly payment plans, data free access to websites that offer financial, health and well-being guidance. Virgin Media Ireland launched its "Connecting 4 Good" sustainability strategy, setting out plans for reducing its carbon footprint by 50% by 2030, and achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050. In The Netherlands, Liberty Global and VodafoneZiggo started offering Ukrainian Refugees fast-track employment opportunities. Vodafone Ziggo also launched the Next Mini box in the market, our most energy efficient set top box to date, weighing less than 100 grams and the winner of the Red Dot award in 2021.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) continues to be a focus for us, reinforcing an inclusive work environment, where our people know their voices are heard, valued, respected and everyone feels they belong. Our dedicated DE&I Council continues to work with colleagues across the Liberty Global footprint to ensure DE&I is embedded into everything we do, including the products we design, the decisions we make, the communities in which we operate and the relationships we have with our customers, suppliers and shareholders. We are accelerating across our priorities of inclusivity and representation in the workplace. Underpinning our strategic pillars of Gender, LGBTQIA+, Ability, Race and Ethnicity, and Multigenerational. We strongly believe in driving an inclusive culture through education, improving our practices, and measuring our progress. We have developed conscious inclusion training and have started to roll this out across our employees as well as embedded our anti-bullying, discrimination and harassment policy in mandatory training. We have refreshed our recruitment practices, taking potential bias out of the process, and widening our talent pool for diversity through new partnerships. We have more than 800 people engaged in our Employee Resource Groups (ERG) providing us with live feedback and holding us to account.

Rebase Information

Rebase growth percentages, which are non-GAAP measures, are presented as a basis for assessing growth rates on a comparable basis. For purposes of calculating rebased growth rates on a comparable basis for all businesses that we owned during 2022, we have adjusted our historical revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 to (i) include the pre-acquisition revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and P&E additions of entities acquired during 2021 in our rebased amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 to the same extent that the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and P&E additions of these entities are included in our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, (ii) exclude from our rebased amounts the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and P&E additions of entities disposed of during 2022 and 2021 to the same extent that the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and P&E additions of these entities are excluded in our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, (iii) include in our rebased results the revenue and costs for the temporary elements of transitional and other services provided to the VMO2 JV, the VodafoneZiggo JV, iliad, Vodafone, Deutsche Telekom, Liberty Latin America and M7 Group, to reflect amounts related to these services equal to those included in our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and (iv) reflect the translation of our rebased amounts at the applicable average foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We have reflected the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and P&E additions of these acquired entities in our 2021 rebased amounts based on what we believe to be the most reliable information that is currently available to us (generally pre-acquisition financial statements), as adjusted for the estimated effects of (a) any significant differences between U.S. GAAP and local generally accepted accounting principles, (b) any significant effects of acquisition accounting adjustments, (c) any significant differences between our accounting policies and those of the acquired entities and (d) other items we deem appropriate. We do not adjust pre-acquisition periods to eliminate nonrecurring items or to give retroactive effect to any changes in estimates that might be implemented during post-acquisition periods. As we did not own or operate the acquired businesses during the pre-acquisition periods, no assurance can be given that we have identified all adjustments necessary to present the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions of these entities on a basis that is comparable to the corresponding post-acquisition amounts that are included in our historical results or that the pre-acquisition financial statements we have relied upon do not contain undetected errors. In addition, the rebased growth percentages are not necessarily indicative of the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions that would have occurred if these transactions had occurred on the dates assumed for purposes of calculating our rebased amounts or the revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions that will occur in the future. Investors should view rebased growth as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of performance included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table provides adjustments made to the 2021 amounts (i) in aggregate for our consolidated reportable segments and (ii) for the non-consolidated VodafoneZiggo JV to derive our rebased growth rates:

Footnotes for Operating Data and Subscriber Variance Tables

Additional General Notes to Tables:

Most of our broadband communications subsidiaries provide telephony, broadband internet, data, video or other B2B services. Certain of our B2B revenue is derived from SOHO subscribers that pay a premium price to receive enhanced service levels along with video, internet or telephony services that are the same or similar to the mass marketed products offered to our residential subscribers. All mass marketed products provided to SOHOs, whether or not accompanied by enhanced service levels and/or premium prices, are included in the respective RGU and customer counts of our broadband communications operations, with only those services provided at premium prices considered to be “SOHO RGUs” or “SOHO customers.” To the extent our existing customers upgrade from a residential product offering to a SOHO product offering, the number of SOHO RGUs or SOHO customers will increase, but there is no impact to our total RGU or customer counts. With the exception of our B2B SOHO subscribers and mobile subscribers at medium and large enterprises, we generally do not count customers of B2B services as customers or RGUs for external reporting purposes.

In Belgium, Telenet leases a portion of its network under a long-term finance lease arrangement. These tables include operating statistics for Telenet's owned and leased networks.

While we take appropriate steps to ensure that subscriber statistics are presented on a consistent and accurate basis at any given balance sheet date, the variability from country to country in (i) the nature and pricing of products and services, (ii) the distribution platform, (iii) billing systems, (iv) bad debt collection experience and (v) other factors add complexity to the subscriber counting process. We periodically review our subscriber counting policies and underlying systems to improve the accuracy and consistency of the data reported on a prospective basis. Accordingly, we may from time to time make appropriate adjustments to our subscriber statistics based on those reviews.

Subscriber information for acquired entities is preliminary and subject to adjustment until we have completed our review of such information and determined that it is presented in accordance with our policies.

Glossary

10-Q or 10-K: As used herein, the terms 10-Q and 10-K refer to our most recent quarterly or annual report as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as applicable.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions and Property and Equipment Additions (P&E Additions):

• Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is the primary measure used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate segment operating performance and is also a key factor that is used by our internal decision makers to (i) determine how to allocate resources to segments and (ii) evaluate the effectiveness of our management for purposes of annual and other incentive compensation plans. As we use the term, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) from continuing operations before net income tax benefit (expense), other non-operating income or expenses, net share of results of affiliates, net gains (losses) on debt extinguishment, net realized and unrealized gains (losses) due to changes in fair values of certain investments and debt, net foreign currency transaction gains (losses), net gains (losses) on derivative instruments, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and other operating items. Other operating items include (a) gains and losses on the disposition of long-lived assets, (b) third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, including legal, advisory and due diligence fees, as applicable, and (c) other acquisition-related items, such as gains and losses on the settlement of contingent consideration. Our internal decision makers believe Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure because it represents a transparent view of our recurring operating performance that is unaffected by our capital structure and allows management to (1) readily view operating trends, (2) perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between segments and (3) identify strategies to improve operating performance in the different countries in which we operate. We believe our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA measure, which is a non-GAAP measure, is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our performance with the performance of other companies in the same or similar industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other public companies. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of income included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

• Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions: We define Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions, which is a non-GAAP measure, as Adjusted EBITDA less property and equipment additions on an accrual basis. Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions is a meaningful measure because it provides (i) a transparent view of Adjusted EBITDA that remains after our capital spend, which we believe is important to take into account when evaluating our overall performance and (ii) a comparable view of our performance relative to other telecommunications companies. Our Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions measure may differ from how other companies define and apply their definition of similar measures. Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of income included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

• P&E Additions: Includes capital expenditures on an accrual basis, amounts financed under vendor financing or finance lease arrangements and other non-cash additions. A reconciliation of earnings from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less P&E Additions is presented in the following table:
