(a)
|
NBCUniversal Headquarters and Other activities include costs associated with overhead, allocations, personnel costs and headquarter initiatives.
|
(b)
|
Included in Eliminations are transactions that our segments enter into with one another. Our segments generally report transactions with one another as if they were stand-alone businesses in accordance with GAAP, and these transactions are eliminated in consolidation. When multiple segments enter into transactions to provide products and services to third parties, revenue is generally allocated to our segments based on relative value.
|
•
|
Revenue for licenses of content from NBCUniversal segments to Peacock and Sky are generally recognized at a point in time, consistent with the recognition of transactions with third parties, when the content is delivered and made available for use. The costs of these licenses at Peacock and Sky are recognized as the content is used over the license period. The difference in timing of recognition between segments results in an Adjusted EBITDA impact in eliminations as the profits on these transactions are deferred in our consolidated results and recognized as the content is used over the license period.
|
•
|
Revenue for licenses of content between NBCUniversal segments is recognized over time to correspond with the amortization of the programming rights asset for the licensed content as the content is used over the license period.
|
(c)
|
Corporate and Other activities include costs associated with overhead and personnel, revenue and expenses associated with our other business interests, including Peacock.
|
(d)
|
We use Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Comcast Corporation before net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock, income tax expense, investment and other income (loss), net, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and other operating gains and losses (such as impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of long-lived assets), if any. From time to time, we may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges (such as significant legal settlements) that affect the period-to-period comparability of our operating performance. Our reconciliation of the aggregate amount of Adjusted EBITDA for our reportable segments to consolidated income before income taxes is presented in the table below.

Our distribution network to date has performed well under the stress of increased traffic and peak usage driven by increased video streaming, gaming and videoconferencing as more customers work and learn remotely from home.
|

|
We incurred costs during the first half of 2020 associated with compensating personnel in roles affected by COVID-19. These costs included additional compensation for frontline personnel who worked to keep our customers connected to our services and compensation for certain personnel who were unable to work due to the closing or suspension of operations.

We have pledged, continuing through the end of December 2020, that new qualifying customers for Internet Essentials, our low-income internet adoption program, will receive 60 days of free internet services. We also pledged through the end of June 2020 to waive certain fees and to not disconnect internet, voice or wireless services for customers for nonpayment, and are providing these customers a variety of flexible and extended payment options. As a result, our customer metrics for the first half of 2020 do not include certain high-risk customers who continue to receive service following nonpayment or customers in the free Internet Essentials offer.

Many professional sports leagues have resumed or have announced plans to resume, some with a reduced schedule for the remainder of the interrupted seasons. Certain of our programming distribution agreements with regional sports networks include contractual adjustment provisions if a minimum number of sporting events does not occur. In the second quarter of 2020, our programming expenses were reduced as a result of these provisions, and our revenue was negatively impacted in similar amounts as a result of adjustments that we anticipate passing through to our customers. These provisions are also expected to impact future period revenue and expenses in 2020. The ultimate amounts and timing of the adjustments are dependent upon the extent to which the sports leagues are able to resume the interrupted seasons.
|
•
|
The deterioration of economic conditions and increased economic uncertainty resulting from COVID-19 have resulted in reduced demand for our residential and business services and reduced spending from advertisers, which have had, and likely will continue to have, negative impacts on our revenue over the near to medium term. In addition, we believe there is increased risk associated with collections on our outstanding receivables, and we have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, increases in our bad debt expense compared to the prior year periods.
|
•
|
The temporary closure of all of our theme parks in the first and second quarters of 2020 had the most significant impact on our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 on a consolidated basis. Our parks in Orlando and Japan reopened with limited capacity in June 2020, while our park in Hollywood remains closed. We expect the results of operations at our theme parks will continue to be negatively impacted in the near to medium term, and we cannot predict when the Hollywood park will reopen, if any reopened parks will remain open or the level of attendance at any reopened parks. In addition, although we currently expect that Universal Beijing Resort will open in 2021, we have delayed certain construction projects, including the development of the Epic Universe theme park in Orlando.

We incurred costs during the first half of 2020 associated with compensating personnel who were unable to work due to the closing or suspension of operations, including at our theme parks and at our production studios.

The postponement and cancellation of many sporting events and professional sports seasons impacted our first and second quarter 2020 results of operations, since both advertising revenues and costs associated with broadcasting these programs were not recognized. Many professional sports leagues have resumed or have announced plans to resume, some with reduced numbers of events for the remainder of the interrupted seasons. Certain of our sports programming rights agreements and distribution agreements with multichannel video providers include contractual provisions if a minimum number of events does not occur. Our distribution revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was negatively impacted as a result of credits accrued relating to these provisions, and the programming costs that we will recognize as the remaining events occur, which are now expected to be primarily in the third quarter of 2020, will also be impacted. When, or the extent to which, sporting events will occur in 2020 will impact the timing, and potentially the amount, of revenue and expense recognition. In addition, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics have been postponed from the third quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2021, which will result in a corresponding delay of the associated revenue and costs.
|
•
|
The creation and availability of our film and television programming in the United States and globally have been disrupted, including from the suspension of studio production operations. Additionally, with the temporary closure of many movie theaters worldwide, we have delayed or altered the theatrical distribution strategy for certain of our films, both domestically and internationally. Delays in theatrical releases will affect both current and future periods as a result of corresponding delays in subsequent content licensing windows. We expect results of operations in our Filmed Entertainment segment to continue to be negatively impacted over the near to medium term as a result of COVID-19.
|
•
|
Many sporting events and professional sports seasons were postponed beginning in the second half of the first quarter of 2020, with certain sports, including European soccer, resuming in May and June 2020, which resulted in significant impacts on Sky’s results of operations in the first and second quarters of 2020. Direct-to-consumer revenue has been negatively impacted as a result of lower sports subscription revenue and we expect continued negative impacts as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 on the reopening plans of our commercial customers. Additionally, significant costs associated with broadcasting these programs were not recognized as a result of the sporting events not occurring in the first quarter of 2020 and for most of the second quarter. Although sporting events have resumed, COVID-19 continues to result in uncertainty in the ultimate timing of when, or the extent to which, sporting events will occur in 2020; their broadcast is expected to impact the timing, and potentially the amount, of revenue and expense recognition.
|
•
|
We temporarily suspended certain sales channels due to COVID-19, which negatively impacted net customer additions and revenue in the first and second quarters of 2020. Our sales channels generally resumed operations in June.
|
•
|
COVID-19 has resulted in the deterioration of economic conditions and increased economic uncertainty in the U.K. and Europe, intensifying what was an already deteriorating economic and advertising environment. These conditions negatively impacted revenue in the first and second quarters of 2020, and we expect will continue to reduce advertising spend and consumer demand for our services for the remainder of 2020. In addition, there is increased risk associated with collections on our outstanding receivables, and we have incurred and expect to continue to incur increases in our bad debt expense.
